In the last 2 weeks, we saw major funds pouring capital into the market leading to S&P 500 / NASDAQ 100 to all time high again Oil (refer to my previous email) reached a top of $100-120 and now coming back down Various blue chip stocks are near the bottom of the support zone ​with earnings season just around the corner (this week) We also had the classic Q1 performing poorly and had a correction early on this year.​​​​ The amount of capital pouring into the market in the last few weeks wouldn't be reversed easily. What does this mean? It means we are about to head into a multi-month bull run. So - get ready :) best of luck!

Compared to most of the Magnificent 7 stocks, Microsoft is currently at a deep discount. This creates a discounted opportunity for buying. In the last few weeks, I focused on deploying our excess cash into specific discounted opportunities​​​​ for long term investing. I also doubled the allocation to Microsoft and Bitcoin which is working out right now. As the market is recovering, the strategy is to deploy cash incrementally as long as we are bullish. We should be heading into a much more bullish market in the coming months Cheers Eric -- Eric Seto Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) Chartered Investment Manager (CIM) Founder of 5MinInvesting.com In April, I’m helping 5 people build a retirement cashflow strategy using options.

As the market is increasing, it is forming a V shape recovery. This pulls majority of the blue chip stocks ahead During bullish times, I tend to use a more aggressive monthly income option strategy to generate a higher option premium (which is what we did a few weeks back) So the stock now is above our target strikes During bearish times, we hold cash and avoid placing a trade.​​ This essentially allows us to catch up​ during bullish time and still achieve our goals while maintaining a good win rate.​ During bullish times, ​I would add onto long term positions as the market goes higher. However, when the market is going up very quickly, there are usually some profit takers the following week. This means you don't need to jump in immediately but wait for a slight pull back first before buying more.​ Cheers, Eric --- Eric Seto Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) Chartered Investment Manager (CIM) Founder of 5MinInvesting.com In April, I’m helping 10 people build a retirement cashflow strategy using options.

Despite JD Vance fails to secure a deal with Iran, US is now trying to close the Strait together with Iran (instead of opening it) - the market is going up. Here's the thing most investors don't understand Don't fight the market Even though I personally disagree with the Iran situation from being far from over, oil price spiking back up to $104+, this means my logical brain says the market should go down However, the momentum has already reached a bullish area and we are now in a V shape recovery ​(instead of my initial forecast W shape recovery) ​​This is where the "logical and analysis" investor diverges from rule based investing For rules based investing, we extract probabilities out of the market and trade when the market is in our favour. For example, the rules currently say we are in a bullish market The logic investor would analyze the entire macro environment (e.g. me analyzing the war) and conclude that we are still bearish Who should you follow? The rules should be followed. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ While it is tempting for me to say that we should continue to short the market or hedge as the Iran conflict is not resolved, the market is govern by big money which already bought at the dip. So even if this correction is short lived, that's fine. I will follow the momentum of the market combine with my analysis.​ This allows me to stick with the market and be on the right side more often ​ Cheers, Eric --- Eric Seto Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) Chartered Investment Manager (CIM) Founder of 5MinInvesting.com In April, I’m helping 10 people build a retirement cashflow strategy using options.
