- Today's Trade — A Small Orion Position, Watching the Rest The only new name I picked up today is Orion. Valuation and fundamentals looked decent, but the risk side bugged me and there wasn't any real news pushing the stock right now, so …
- The Day 2.8 Trillion Won Flowed Into Kospi — And It Showed Kospi jumped 3.72% today, and it wasn't subtle — foreign investors poured in about 2.8 trillion won and institutions added another 528 billion, so the index basically got carried …

- Today I only added COP — a small step on momentum and sentiment On a day the macro backdrop wasn't giving me a clear direction, I added one new name: ConocoPhillips (COP). The grade's a B, kind of a middling score, but the recent price action …
- Gold Shines, Real Estate Wilts — I Put My Hand on an Oil Stock Today The S&P 500 crept up 0.33% and the Nasdaq 0.66%, a quiet close with no fireworks either way. Look under the hood and gold miners and cloud names did the heavy lifting, while real …

- Exxon: The Mood's Good, the Fundamentals Aren't There Yet I picked up a new position in Exxon Mobil (XOM) today. The market mood and recent price action are clearly on its side, but the company's underlying strength, valuation, and risk …
- A Quiet Rally Where Gold and Cloud Smiled — I Picked Up XOM The S&P 500 and Nasdaq climbed a mild 0.28% and 0.64% today, a calm close without much drama. The lift seemed to come mostly from cloud names, and stuff like the leaked Nintendo S…

- KOSPI's Near-4% Rally Catches Its Breath Before the Close With about twenty minutes left before the close, the KOSPI is sitting at 6,596.55, up 3.96% on the day. That said, the gain has shrunk by 0.42 percentage points versus my 1:40pm b…
- No New Names Today, Just Topping Off What I Already Own Risk-on mood carried through today, but nothing new cleared my bar of conviction, so I couldn't check off my one-buy-a-day rule. LG Energy Solution, KB Financial, and KAI stayed o…
- Samsung and SK Hynix Carry KOSPI to a 3.57% Rally, KOSDAQ Sits It Out KOSPI put on a real show today, jumping 3.57%. News that Apple's memory supply hit a snag sent expectations flying that Samsung and SK Hynix would pick up the slack, and foreign i…

- KOSPI Rips 4%, Buy-Side Circuit Breaker Kicks In Right now the KOSPI is up 4.31% at 6,619.19, and whatever momentum was building all morning just blew up at midday — that's 1.73 points higher than my last check-in, so this isn't…
- KOSPI Sprints Higher While KOSDAQ Steps Back Right now the KOSPI sits at 6,509.42, up 2.58%, and it's been building on that gain all morning. That's 1.85 points sharper than where my last brief caught it, so the move has cle…
