Quê độ thiệt! Vừa bán lỗ xong thì nó ngóc đầu lên.... Ặc ặc!

Khi mình mua stocks bị lỗ, cái emotion làm mình có quyết định sai thời điểm - my weakness
ai trade stocks cũng phạm phải lỗi này . Sydney bị hoài
chỉ có điều Sydney không post ra nên không ai thấy thôi
Thank you for showing your trades . I admire your courage .

Hôm qua, thấy AMZN dropped thì đoán bữa nay SQQQ sẽ hồi phục. Nhưng, không ngờ sáng sớm thấy job-report hot quá, đâm ra hỗn loạn, rồi lại nghĩ đến a combination of FED hold off rate and trade negotiation moving along well, nên không đủ kiên nhẫn để giữ mãi, dù không thấy hi-tech có anything to move up. Cái đáng sợ bây giờ không base on fundamental facts mà là base on (good, fake) media information, which move the market either way. Plus, business's politic is having a way of manipulation to the utmost như AMD, AAPL với những mánh mà những tay đầu nậu lớn họ đã plan sẵn. Investment bây giờ thiệt giống như đặt đúng cửa hay không trong sòng tài xỉu mà ít vốn rất dễ chết, khi thắng không biết chạy rồi khi thua lại khát nước. FEAR vẫn là yếu tố chính vì mình không phải billionaire và đủ kiên nhẫn để suffer long term. Getting difficult now!

Four key catalysts today that are driving the stock market in the early going:

FAANG stocks bite back
The widely-followed contingent -- Facebook (FB 168.14, +2.43, +1.5%), Amazon (AMZN 1648.37, +22.14, +1.4%), Apple (AAPL 170.75, +4.23, +2.5%), Netflix (NFLX 349.73, +9.88, +2.9%), and Alphabet (GOOG 1130.54, +19.79, +1.8%) -- are all outperforming in early action, which is making a difference for the broader market (and Nasdaq) given their collective market weight.
The information technology (+1.2%) and communication services (+0.7%) sectors are today's best-performing sectors
Note: Alphabet reports after the close today and investors appear hopeful that it will share good earnings news

Thoughts of consolidation
The S&P 500 is up 15.0% since December 24 while both the Dow and Nasdaq have recorded six, consecutive weekly gains. The huge run, and the inability to sustain a big rally following the encouraging January employment report on Friday, have fostered a sense that the broader market may be poised for a period of consolidation.

Weakness in the energy sector (-0.7%)
WTI crude prices ($54.13, -$1.13, -2.0%) hit a high of $55.75/bbl in overnight action, but have rolled over on profit-taking action.
The downturn in crude prices has bled into the energy stocks, most of which are sporting losses, including sector heavyweights ExxonMobil (XOM 74.66, -1.26, -1.7%) and Chevron (CVX 117.48, -0.89, -0.8%), which moved up nicely on Friday following their earnings reports.

Losses in the S&P 500 health care sector (-0.9%)
Seeing the continued underperformance of one of the market's most heavily-weighted sectors, which is up 3.9% for the year versus an 8.1% gain for the S&P 500.
Alexion Pharmacuticals (ALXN 123.16, -3.12, -2.5%) is weak following its earnings report this morning, which contained FY19 revenue guidance that was a bit shy of expectations. That guidance was the trigger to some profit taking, which may have happened anyway considering the stock had surged 36% from its December 24 low.
Note: President Trump will be giving his State of the Union speech on Tuesday night, which could be a negative for investor sentiment if he emphasizes the need for further drug price controls.

Chipotle (CMG) is set to report Q4 earnings after the close today (last quarter the co reported at 16:05). The co will host a conference call to discuss later at 16:30.
Current Cap IQ Consensus estimates Q4 adj. EPS of $1.41 (vs. $1.34 last year) on revs of $1.195 bln (+7.6% Y/Y). Current estimates for Q4 comps are +4.5%

FireEye (FEYE) is set to report Q4 results tonight after the close with a conference call to follow at 5pm ET. Current Capital IQ consensus stands at EPS of $0.05 on revenue of $216.79 mln.
An in line EPS report would mark the the third straight profitable quarter and the fourth in the past five earnings reports.
Current Capital IQ consensus suggests a 12% y/y increase in revenues which would mark the first double digit growth for FEYE since 3Q16.

(NXPI) NXP Semiconductor is slated to release Q4 results after the close with a conference call scheduled for 8 a.m. ET tomorrow morning.
The current Capital IQ Consensus Estimate calls for Q4 EPS of $2.08 on revenue declines of about 3.1% to $2.38 billion.
Guidance for Q4 sits at revs of $2.32-2.47 billion.
Company sees non-GAAP gross margins between 52.3-53.7%.
Expects non-GAAP operating margins of 29.0-31.0%.
As NXPI typically guides in the release, it may be prudent to outline where the Street stands for Q1:
EPS of $1.82 on revenue declines of 0.8% to about $2.25 billion.

Four key catalysts today that are driving the stock market in the early going:

Return of growth concerns
They have always been present, yet a series of headlines today (primarily from abroad) have stoked concerns about a slowdown in global growth that are contributing to profit-taking activity.
The EU Commission lowered its 2019 euro area GDP growth forecast to 1.3% from 1.9%.
The Bank of England lowered its 2019 GDP growth forecast to 1.2% from 1.7%.
in a surprise move, the Reserve Bank of India cut its key lending rate 25 basis points to 6.25%.
Seeing broad-based profit taking with cyclical sectors, like energy (-2.1%) and materials (-1.5%), leading the retreat.

Weakness in communication services sector (-1.4%)
Many stocks in this space have been on a roll of late, yet many are backtracking today on the heels of Twitter's (TWTR 30.54, -3.62, -10.6%) disappointing first quarter guidance and news that regulators in Germany are cracking down on Facebook's (FB 167.62, -2.87, -1.7%) business practices there.

Financial sector (-1.7%) lagging (again) despite a big M&A deal in the space
BBT&T (BBT 48.99, +0.46, +1.0%) and SunTrust Banks (STI 62.71, +3.97, +6.8%) announced an all-stock merger of equals valued at ~$66 billion. That news has given the stocks a lift, as well as other regional banks, evidenced by the 1.0% gain in the SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF (KRE 54.26, +0.38, +0.7%).
The rest of the sector, though, isn't doing much. Notably, Bank of America (BAC 27.96, -0.77, -2.7%), JPMorgan Chase (JPM 101.57, -2.17, -2.1%), Citigroup (C 62.04, -1.85, -2.9%), Wells Fargo, and Goldman Sachs (GS 192.38, -4.24, -2.2%) are all down in a reflection of the global growth concern weighing on the stock market and which, in turn, are driving market rates lower across the yield curve.

Trade matters
This excuse is a revolving-door excuse, which is to say it resonates some days more than others. With the market already caught up growth concerns as a catalyst for today's pullback, it moved to session lows a short time ago on a remark from NEC Director Kudlow, who told Fox Business that "there is a pretty sizable distance to go in U.S. trade talks."
Mr. Kudlow's remark isn't a complete surprise, yet its impact today is rooted in the uncertainty it generates about the ability to get a deal done by March 2.
