US stock market looking good.....

 US stock market took whole month of April " liberation month " from arrogance, bullying and TRADE AS WEAPON "

Warren Buffett chose right words to describe White House insanity....

Sooner or later everyone is forced to " change its tune "

There is a worldwide reaction to Trumpism, Australia also elected " labor government " Canada stayed with Liberals a direct reaction to Trumpism...both parties were behind in polls big time until " genius spoke "

US stock market will have its biggest UP day when China will start " watered down trade talks "

Tuesday Canadian Prime Minister will be in cage with Trump, Vance & Rubio to start a NON START...

Back to US stock market.....PATIENCE & CONVICTION is the key in " breaking news market "

Many stocks are working based on your trading style.....

I am staying with highest profile stocks as " money is buying favors "

Last week UP 3.96%

YTD down 3.04%

Hi Salem,
Thank you for the Sunday's blogs and all the valuable information of the market situation. Hopefully, all the highest profile stocks will pay off soon.

Hi Saleem,

Last week: +8.61% (YTD: -32.56%)
Portfolio Leaders: PONY ODD DAVE PSNL RZLV
Portfolio Laggards: FATN

It was a stellar week for risk-taking as no new negatives on tariffs, and even some positives, brought long-lost buyers back into the market and oversold conditions rectified. At this point, the market is probably fairly valued pending more information, but good ideas can continue to move. I hope to have the right positioning as we enter this phase of the market action, and try to take some profits when they are warranted. Longer term I still expect AI-themes to dominate, especially in the broader market as AI brings efficiencies and higher profitability.

Holdings: DAVE RBRK PSNL RZLV CVCO SSYS FATN AVAV RXRX, cash 22%

A new note, I literally just sold PONY @ 9.94. With the threat of Chinese stocks being de-listed, I just can't justify the risk...sadly, because this is the one of the absolute best ways to play the AI revolution and doesn't have a US-equivalent.

Hi Saleem,

Bought AEVA @ 7.91 as my best idea replacement for PONY

The charts looks ready for breakout after resting and it has exhibited strong relative strength considering most AI/robotic/new tech stocks are well off their highs.

Hi Saleem,

Added to AVAV @ 161.51 to top off the position to the same weighting as others in the portfolio.

Hi Saleem,

I like UPST on the dip here - another case of guidance conservatism given the macro uncertainty. I won't have any buying power until Thursday so I might be too late, but I'll look to maybe sell something tomorrow afternoon and have funds for a Thursday morning purchase if it's still at these levels or lower.

UPST may be a good idea....
