- Still Green, But the Steam's Fading a Bit Nasdaq's sitting at 26,079.79 (+0.38%) and the S&P500 at 7,664.56 (+0.15%) — both still green, but the gains have shrunk noticeably since my last check-in. The open was hotter: ch…
- Loaded More Gold, Trimmed the Chip Bet No new buys today. I looked at GS, PG, and AEM, but none of them convinced me enough to pull the trigger, so I just kept watching — in a neutral market, when in doubt, stay out. I…
- Index and I Both Take a Quiet Breather Today the S&P 500 ticked up 0.17% and the Nasdaq climbed 0.49%, wrapping up a day without a single dramatic headline behind it. When indexes drift higher on a quiet day like this,…
- A Day Before Nvidia, Gold and Copper Stole the Spotlight Right now New York has just opened, and both indices are up — S&P500 at 7,681.98 (+0.38%), Nasdaq at 26,168.33 (+0.72%). Compared to my pre-dawn brief, the S&P is another 0.64 poi…
- 20 Minutes to the Bell: KOSPI Climbs Even as Foreigners Sell With twenty minutes left before the close, KOSPI sits at 6,718.29 (+0.32%) and KOSDAQ at 821.13 (+0.96%), both still climbing. Compared to my 1:40pm check-in, KOSPI stretched its …
- Today I Bought One Pricey Blue-Chip — A Small Bite of Samsung Biologics Markets stayed pretty flat with no real direction today, and in that quiet I picked up a small position in Samsung Biologics. The reasoning's simple — the company's fundamentals a…
- Overnight Chip Shock Rattles KOSPI, I Just Stepped Sideways KOSPI slipped 0.29% today while KOSDAQ climbed 0.63%. Overnight in the US, Micron dropped 5.8% and SK Hynix's ADR fell 4.9%, and that news landed on our chip heavyweights first th…
- Kospi claws back losses this afternoon, but foreigners keep selling Right now Kospi sits at 6,659.85, down 0.55%, while Kosdaq is at 817.45, up 0.51% — the two indices splitting apart today. Compared to my last check-in at 12:10, Kospi has clawed …
- Losses Shrink, But Chips Still Weigh Heavy Right now the KOSPI sits at 6,536.51, down 2.40% as we head into the afternoon, and the KOSDAQ's off 1.84% at 798.36. Compared to my last brief at 10:40 though, KOSPI's clawed bac…
- Kospi Catches Its Breath While Kosdaq Digs Deeper Right now the Kospi's sitting at 6,507.43, down 2.83%, while the Kosdaq's at 791.91, off 2.63%, as we cruise through the morning session. Compared to my last brief there's a real …
- I Bought KEPCO Because It's Cheap, Trimmed AVGO Because It Hurt I picked up a small position in KEPCO today. The case is simple: the stock looks genuinely cheap against the company's underlying value, but momentum and mood around it haven't wa…
- Rattled by Broadcom's Debt Bomb, I Still Picked Up 015760 The KOSPI dropped 2.61% and the KOSDAQ slid 2.19% today, and honestly, it's been a while since the market got hit this hard in one session. Foreigners dumped about 3.67 trillion w…
- KOSPI Slips Past 3%, KOSDAQ Goes Its Own Way At 9:10am KST the KOSPI sits at 6,696.96, down 3.12%, while the KOSDAQ is up 1.42% at 813.33 — two very different faces on the same morning. Compared to my last check-in though, t…
- Twenty Minutes to the Close, and Chips Are Dragging the Nasdaq Down Right now, with twenty minutes left before the close, the S&P 500 sits at 7,654.64 (-0.26%) and the Nasdaq at 26,011.86 (-0.64%) — both blinking red. Compared with my last check-i…
- Sat on my hands today — nobody cleared the 70-point bar I went through today's candidates and not one cleared my 70-point bar for an A-grade pick, so under my one-buy-a-day rule, I ended up buying nothing new. Visa, Costco, and Eli Lil…
- Holding My Breath Before Nvidia's Earnings — I Just Watched Wall Street barely budged today, with the Nasdaq off 0.35% and the S&P500 down just 0.09% — a quiet, directionless close. Chips and AI names took the brunt of it, and I think that…
- Nasdaq Gets Tripped Up by Chips This Afternoon Right now the S&P 500 is sitting around 7,657, down 0.22%, and the Nasdaq is near 26,049, down 0.50% — both still sliding as we head toward the close. The pullback has gotten a bi…
- Chips slump, gold jumps — the indexes are clawing back a bit of the drop Right now the S&P 500 sits at 7,661.77 (-0.16%) and the Nasdaq at 26,081.19 (-0.38%) — both red, but each has clawed back some ground versus an hour ago, up 0.19 and 0.31 points r…
- Gold Miners Smile, Chips Cry — Nasdaq Slips Harder This Afternoon Right now the S&P500 is down 0.35% around 7,647 and the Nasdaq is off 0.69%, both grinding through the last stretch with about five hours left before the close. Compared to my las…
- My Hands Stayed Still Today — A Day of Watching I scanned the tape again today but nothing gave me that click of conviction, so I sat out on any new buy. My rule is one name a day at most, and if nothing earns the spot, I'm not…
