US Stock market got another backtracking....

 US stock market cannot get any sanity from US tariff related back peddling.....

EU got the gift of 50% tariff

AAPL got 25% tariff

This IS after everybody supposedly was lined up to do a deal with the chess master....

ZERO credibility comes to mind.....

US stock market cannot function in these daily back peddling....

Stay ahead of so-called bad news events by booking profit quickly....

This tariff drama will not end until end of the year...a very long WAIT.....

Here is the result from last week :

Last week Down 3.16%

YTD UP 10.16%

Here is portfolio weighting :

SHOP        19.14%

GOOG      15.94%

ABX         14.97%

TSLA      12.18%

AAPL     10.70%

AVGO      8.95%

MSFT      7.44%

MU          3.63%

SMCI      3.58%

HOOD    3.47%

Hi Saleem,

Last week: -2.87% (YTD: -22.23%)
Portfolio Leaders: LFMD DAVE(upon sale) AVAV
Portfolio Laggards: RZLV FATN SSYS III UPST

It was a pullback week for many stocks and the portfolio did the same. Tariff headlines continue to create volatility, but the underlying strength of the economy has surprised many and provides a positive backdrop. We are entering the normally slower period of the market, but i think stockpicking can still generate outsized returns here. I continue to search for new ideas and rotate them in as other names reach their potential or need to be culled.

Holdings: LFMD AVAV RZLV TTMI UPST III SNAP FEIM SSYS PSNL FATN, cash 9%

I am looking at PONY for purchase as the lockup expires, or possibly OSIS which continues to show up on my short interest/near 52wk high screener. Also, I found a new name DUOT which sets up edge data centers to create hubs of connectivity for businesses, personal, and education (along with independent power modules to support those data centers).
