Trump has put the US energy grid on a war footing! And these 5 companies stand to benefit the most…
On April 20, President Trump did something that hasn’t been done since the Cold War era: he invoked the Defence Production Act to declare America’s energy grid a matter of national defence.
Free Trading Tools (Part 1): What You Actually Need – And Where to Find It
There’s a common belief that successful traders win because they have access to expensive institutional tools and complex systems. That’s not true. In most cases, institutions are not even watching the same things retail traders obsess over. The real edge comes from understanding what trading tools you already have and using them properly.
Could Cerebras looming IPO “Out-Chip” Nvidia
Cerebras Systems. Founded in 2015 in Sunnyvale, California, Cerebras was built by a team of semiconductor veterans – several of whom held senior engineering roles at AMD, Nvidia’s biggest GPU rival. From day one, they set out to solve a problem that had been quietly frustrating the AI world for years: standard chips, no matter how powerful, are small. AI models are enormous. And making thousands of small chips talk to each other quickly enough to train or run a cutting-edge model is messy, expensive, and slow.
Their answer wasn’t to make a better version of what already existed. It was to throw out the rulebook entirely.
FAQ Shares vs ETFs – Which One’s Right for You?
One of the most common questions we get from new investors is this: “Should I be buying individual shares, or is it better to invest in an ETF?” The short answer? It depends on your time, goals, and risk appetite.
Credit Ratings – What They Really Mean and Why You Should Care
Moody’s downgraded the credit rating of the United States. That might sound like background noise for retail traders, but it actually matters more than you might think. Here’s a plain-English breakdown of what credit ratings are, why they move markets, and how they affect you.
Trump’s tariff trade war: OFF…then back ON… What’s really going on?!
President Trump’s tariff trade war has gone through twist and turns over the past week. It started on Wednesday when the US Court of International Trade declared all the tariffs unilaterally imposed using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) must be voided immediately.
A new JSE listing; Nuclear goes berserk, and ECB’s gold warning!
This past week has been eventful – not just globally – but here in SA too. Today, I’m going to share three events that involve the JSE, nuclear and gold that caught my eye and what they mean for you.
Investors! You need to pay attention to what’s happening in Japan right now!
Japan’s bond market is in free fall… Prices for the once-stable 30-year Japanese government bond have plunged 20%. And yields (which move in the opposite direction to prices) on 20-year and 30-year JGBs (Japanese Government Bonds) are nearing all-time highs as a result. Crashing bond prices (and soaring yields) like this aren’t normal, as it signals something has gone terribly wrong. So, what is going on? And what does it mean for you as an investor?
Am I a trader, or am I an investor?
One of the most important questions you can ask yourself as a market participant is deceptively simple: Am I a trader, or am I an investor? While both groups operate in the same financial markets, their goals, tools, and temperaments often differ significantly. Understanding where you fall — and why — can make the difference between building a strategy that suits you or constantly fighting against your own instincts.
A hunting ground for stocks that could 3x, 5x even 10x your money!
Large caps are large stocks. Small caps are small. Mid-caps are in between. While the difference between a mid-cap and a large-cap can be huge, the difference between a small-cap and a large-cap can be incredible. Large caps are good investments particularly for more conservative investors. They’re typically stable, established, profitable companies and often pay dividends. But if you’re interested in making 3x, 5x, or even 10 times your money, you’d be smart to look at small-cap stocks.
What to make of America’s credit rating downgrade?
On Friday last week, Moody’s stripped the US government of its AAA credit rating. The credit rating agency said the downgrade “reflects the increase over more than a decade in government debt and interest payment ratios to levels that are significantly higher than similarly rated sovereigns.”
$10,000 into $500 Million: What I Learned from Warren Buffett and his Five-Million-Percent Legacy
How do you turn $10,000 into half a billion dollars? You follow Warren Buffett.
That’s not an exaggeration. Since Buffett took control of Berkshire Hathaway in 1965, the company’s stock has surged by a staggering 4,384,748% (as of early 2024)—that’s over five million percent with compounding. By comparison, the S&P 500 has returned just under 39,000% over the same period. That means Buffett outperformed the broader U.S. market by more than 140 times.
“Decentralised-AI” – What is it? And what does it mean for investors?
Blockchain has been around since the birth of Bitcoin. But its unprecedented growth only took hold in the late 2010s, when cryptos started receiving mainstream attention. Meanwhile, AI has been making waves in the tech industry for decades. But it’s only been recently that AI has exploded in popularity as it has become more accessible. But as both technologies evolved over the past three years, we have seen huge progress toward the concept of Decentralised AI.
