→ Balanced growth: AVGO, LRCX
→ Safer momentum leader: NVDA
Current S&P 500 Situation at this Moment:
→ The market is still structurally bullish
→ AI spending remains extremely strong,

→ the U.S. economy is still resilient.
A few warning signs:

Our Portfolio for Next week:
The S&P 500 still looks structurally bullish, but the market is stretched after a powerful rally. A short-term 3–5% pullback would not be surprising, especially if bond yields continue rising or AI momentum cools temporarily. That said, the broader trend remains upward, so aggressively shorting the market here could be risky. The better approach is probably Cash. |
