US stock market has been dealt a severe blow to " confidence "...
US policy of " crash & burn to world trade " has backfired to an irreparable level "
Worldwide selling of US assets has taken place
US Bonds being liquidated
US$ being sold
US Real estate are being liquidated
US made products are impacted " big time "
VISITORS to USA has DWINDLED to an alarming level
NET NET US stock market IS NOT functioning well @ all
This may take many many years to REVERSE....
You are witnessing on LIVE TV how ARROGANCE can DESTROY millions of hard work in SECONDS
SO
What to do.....
BUY NON US Assets
Invests in non US markets
IF you INSISTS on US investing then DO EXTENSIVE research as to where each company is doing business & to what extent non US focus affects Sales & EPS......

Hi Saleem,
I am glad you took your issues right to the top as it appeared to make a difference even though no one took the time to express their apologies...
80% health, amazing! Hopefully you are starting to really feel close to yourself again after all this time. I pray for continued progress towards your ultimate personal goals for health and happiness.
Last week: -2.49% (YTD: -41.87%)

Portfolio Laggards: TNA "trades" :(, CVCO
Given everything, the market had an incredibly strong week with the S&P 500 up over 5% and the NASDAQ doing even better. This comes in the face of continued harsh rhetoric, but some positive nods towards important trading partners. I think it's key to recognize that when things seem the darkest and price action/sentiment is so bearish, even the smallest of positives can have a large impact, and they often come unexpectedly. The most important piece to watch going forward is the US dollar as we try to understand the short- and long-term implications of the new trade policies. For so many years the trade imbalances have led to foreign nations buying US assets with all their extra US dollars from trade, so attempts to "correct" this situation may lead to lower valuations and high bond yields across the board along with increased prices of foreign-made goods -- we maybe should be more careful what we wish for...
The portfolio underperformed this week as the whipsaw trading caught me on some TNA (triple long small caps) trades that hurt the portfolio. I continue to try and rotate into individual growth stocks that are showing relative strength. Stocks showing supportive price action during these kinds of market declines indicates positive accumulation trends that will benefit the stock when we come out of the darkness. I have some cash available right now and hope to deploy it soon (even though Monday should be quite positive on the tariff exemptions announced).

Hi Saleem,
Bought AMKR @ 16.92 on primarily domestic production and today's announcement with NVDA. I feel like more announcements with auto/industrial/AI could be coming.

Hi Stocktrader,
