To The Moon

Worth noting today is the defensive rotation after DJI down 1.23% to 52215, SPX down 0.52% and IXIC holding better down 0.21%. Market is weighing oil breaking 100 adding inflation pressure and the Tesla SpaceX merger hype reversing with SpaceX down 9.14% and Tesla down 3.08% on governance and dilution concerns.  Stocks to watch: Tesla and SpaceX for follow through selling, BigBear AI after that Google deal still volatile, Lam Research which dropped 17% last week needs to show recovery, and defensives like Procter and Gamble, Costco, Walmart, Coca-Cola and Berkshire for continued safe haven flow.  Trading plan: I am not chasing defensives at highs, waiting for tech to wash out. If Nasdaq holds 25900, could look for bounce in oversold AI names, otherwise stay defensive with cash he

SpaceX falling 9.14% and Tesla 3.08% shows how messy this unconfirmed merger idea is. Governance, exchange terms and regulatory scrutiny would complicate any deal. Bulls like the SpaceX 14.58B quarterly revenue including 7.56B from AI and synergies across Starlink, compute, energy and autonomy, but bears are right to worry about dilution and control conflicts for Tesla shareholders. Until real terms emerge, dilution risk should outweigh synergy hype in valuation in my view.

This defensive rotation looks real with Procter & Gamble up 5.58%, Coca-Cola, Eli Lilly, Walmart, Costco and Berkshire Hathaway up 1.32% all outperforming as AI valuations compress. Berkshire's roughly 360B cash, renewed buybacks, Taylor Morrison deal and bigger Alphabet stake show Buffett deploying capital while tech stalls. Bulls see steadier earnings, but I agree with bears that defensives are extended. If tech rebounds, this could reverse fast. For a lasting shift we need earnings follow-through, not just one flight to safety.

Oil breaking $100 is adding pressure to tech already weak on AI capex fears. This rotation to defensives makes sense short term, Procter & Gamble, Coca-Cola, Walmart, Costco and Eli Lilly all showing safe haven bid. I think Berkshire Hathaway with $360B cash and buybacks is best positioned if selloff continues, but defensives look extended now. I see this as one day flight to safety unless oil holds above $100, then AI valuations need to reset further before rebound.

I pick A $ASML Holding NV(ASML)$ after sell-off. Both beat earnings but fell with market ytd. $MS reported $3.03 vs $2.91 est, trading $5.79B beat by $900M but down 2.8% on hot inflation. $ASML Holding NV(ASML)$ also beat EPS, raised 2026 forecast 3rd time, CEO said AI demand will outstrip equipment supply in 2027/28 and clients ordering for 2029/30, but down 3.9%

I vote Flat for Thursday close. Reason is simple — Q3 already leaked. Revenue up 50% to 1.49T, profit up 65% to 746B, 6th record quarter. Market knows already. TSM ADR now $445, up a lot this year. So Oct 15 earnings likely beat, but stock may not shoot 10% unless Q4 guidance super bullish. AI demand still main driver, but a lot priced in already. For me i hold long term, short term maybe flat to small green 2-3%. If dip i will add. Not financial advice, just sharing.

Micron (MU) and SNDK just blew past 10%, crushing the market's volatility as capital swings back into the AI infrastructure trade. Morgan Stanley just jacked Micron's price target from $350 to $450, slapping an Overweight rating on it and pointing to the HBM4 capacity ramp as the big catalyst. SNDK's surge shows the storage sector's momentum is still firing, riding the AI data‑center buildout wave. Key takeaway: the AI‑driven memory boom is making MU a sweet pick, with the $450 target looking doable if the HBM4 rollout stays on track. Keep an eye on supply‑chain updates and demand from data‑center builds to gauge next moves.

Google's move to integrate AI-powered shopping directly into Search and Gemini is a game-changer for ad monetization. By enabling users to purchase products while receiving AI-generated answers, Google could significantly boost its AI revenue stream and reshape the advertising landscape. This strategy might strengthen Google's AI monetization by: 1. Enhancing user experience: Seamless shopping within search results can increase engagement. 2. Increasing ad relevance: AI-driven product suggestions can make ads more targeted and effective. 3. Expanding revenue channels: Direct purchases through AI search could open new monetization avenues beyond traditional ads. However, the meaningfulness of this revenue boost depends on user adoption and the balance between AI-driven commerce and user pri

The Dow cracking 50,000 is a big flex, and the market's vibes are definitely bullish right now. When the Dow jumps 2.47% to 50,115 and the S&P & Nasdaq follow suit, it shows strong momentum behind the breakout. Historically, a milestone like this can fuel another gap higher if the fundamentals and investor sentiment stay solid. Traders who bought the dip in the recent selloff are positioning themselves for the next push, hoping the rally keeps rolling instead of stalling into a consolidation phase. The real question is whether this surge is backed by earnings or just hype. If the economic data and corporate results stay strong, we could see US stocks gap higher this week. But if the market's just riding a short‑term hype wave, expect some pullback after the initial rush.
