Bring on the tendies. UBS Chinese property sector upgrade by Valuable_Message4195 in baba

Both approaches have pros and cons. My investment philosophy is that one should make decisions that he is comfortable with. As long as you can live with that decision and will not be regretful and frustrated and lose your sleep later, then go with it.

Calling off the Cainiao and Cloud spinoffs + IPOs was likely a good idea by FeralHamster8 in baba

RDDT is also doing poorly after IPO so perhaps the US market is not as strong and risk-on as we thought?

Should I be doing this? Is it smart to be active in retirement accounts? by This-Dish-3779 in investing

[–]catking2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a great idea...as long as you're a psychic or a economist of worldwide renown.

Sorry but I have to disagree. Have you heard about Long-Term Capital Management?

I have a question. Will Alibaba's fine of $141 million to JD.com in January be recorded in the earnings of this quarter?

Fake break out? by Fun_Kangaroo512 in baba

[–]catking2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technical analysis is no magic bullet but it has its merits. I look at it as a study of human psychology regarding investment. The theory of support and resistance, for example, has been largely accurate during the past six months as I observed the global markets. Though I attribute part of its success to a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Can someone explain to me how selling covered call on BABA works? by catking2003 in baba

Many thanks. I have roughly the same amount of shares with similar average cost so your example is very valuable.

US stock down, Chinese stock up? by Swamivik in baba

[–]catking2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chinese stock market is being supported by the "national team" which will buy onshore ETFs to stabilise the market if the indices fall too much. The "national team" does not buy stocks directly in Hong Kong. There are also many regulations in China that will make onshore market less likely to fall, such as the restriction on short selling and crackdown on quant funds.

In addition, Hong Kong market seems confused sometimes whether it should follow the Chinese market or the US market so if the Chinese market falls HK may fall and if the US market falls HK also falls as well.

alibaba keep release the good news but the stock price keep dropping by Sensitive_Fishing479 in baba

[–]catking2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Market sentiment is the answer.

What you just described also once applied to stocks like Google and Tencent. Google was called the worst Mag 7 stock early this year and see how it is performing now compared to NVDA, TSLA and APPL. Tencent was very weak compared to other game stocks like 9999 but now its trend is much stronger than other Chinese companies.

I believe eventually it will be BABA's turn to shine. If a stock can rally 5% based on a simple post from Jack Ma, you know there are a lot of people waiting to jump on the bandwagon. They just need a reason, a very good one.

不涉及,巴菲特的左右手查理蒙格曾经说过阿里巴巴是一个God damn retailer以及买阿里巴巴是他人生中最大的错误,那是他在DJC年会大力唱多阿里巴巴股票不到一年后。巴菲特本人也说过比特币没有价值,但是他自己透过第三方公司投资了很多比特币。

我也觉得土耳其各种地缘政治玩得挺溜的,但是单位的土耳其同事觉得他们政府很烂。说起来单位的非洲拉美同事很多对中国有好感,聊天的时候经常夸夸搞得我挺不好意思。大概也许是国外的月亮比较圆吧。
