    Despite all the hyperbole on Instagram its not clear to me that anyone is making money directly from AI chat bots and agents or when that may change. I have likened the “AI boom” to a gold rush and as with a real world gold rush the people who do best are the ones selling picks and shovels to the miners.

    I haven’t seen anything to change my mind…[Read more]

    I’ll give you three of my favourites and a wildcard:

    * Nvidia – I expect 2026 to be another strong year for Nvidia. It will be rolling out its next-generation Vera Rubin chips and demand is likely to be high. On the recent Q3 earnings call, the company said that it has visibility to half a trillion dollars in Blackwell and Rubin revenue from the…[Read more]

    Is the S&P 500 Information Technology sector looking over sold in the short term?

    With just 7.14% of stocks in the sector trading above their 5 D MA lines.

    The two year chart below tracks this indicator – the magenta line is the low point during this term the indicator can go lower from here, but at least in the last 24 months it hasn’t hung…[Read more]

    Interesting that Jackson highlights IAG LN this morning, as I posted elsewhere on DAL US Delta Airlines the stock had been climbing since Dec 3rd putting 6 positive sessions out of ten in the interim. The stock may have found its near term ceiling have closed down by -0.18% on Tuesday.

    Depends what you are looking for but as a growth/quality investor, I like the Blue Whale Growth fund. This is a concentrated, growth-focused global equity fund managed by Stephen Yiu.

    Yiu is good at identifying growth themes and capitalising on them. For example, he’s made a ton of money for investors in recent years on the AI buildout theme.…[Read more]

    Fund investing is a thorny subject the sad truth is that few actively managed funds will beat their benchmarks, in any given year and fewer still will manage to do that on a consistent basis.

    Against that when you buy a fund you are outsourcing the management of your money to an expert/team of experts, in their field. And that appeals to many…[Read more]

    I last flagged IG Group, IGG LN on budget day (see the link below).

    My thoughts have been that the stock is undervalued, and the fact that Kraken, for one, was interested in merging with company effectively means that its open to offers. After all CEO Breon Corcoran is an outsider, without any historical allegiance to the brand or its…[Read more]

    I know I keep writing about metals, but that’s where the action and the interest is at the moment.

    Take this chart for example, published by Bank of America and highlighted by Ole Sloth Hansen, Saxo’s commodity strategist.

    This is a great question and my answer is timely and topical, because my stock pick is Broadcom AVGO US. A $1.95 trillion designer, developer and supplier of semiconductors.

    Broadcom’s stock price has risen consistently in recent times its added +630.0% in the last three years for example. But its also delivered on an earnings front with 5 year…[Read more]

  • For me it would be Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN).

    Coming back to Natural Gas prices there are some negative headlines about China LNG imports around this morning doing some digging its seems that this isn’t strictly new news but it is worth being aware of given China’s prominent position as a commodity importer and the fact that US Natural Gas is increasingly exported as LNG.
