[Investment Diary #32] My Strategic Picks for Jan Week 2: Alphabet, Samsung, Space Tech, and the Return of Risk-on Sentiment

 

Hello! This is Piry. :) Today, I’m sharing my 32nd investment diary, covering the second week of January. My portfolio saw some interesting shifts this week as I balanced individual blue-chip stocks with high-growth thematic ETFs.

Here is a breakdown of my recent trades and market insights.

1. Betting on Giants: Alphabet (GOOGL) & Samsung Electronics

I added Alphabet and Samsung Electronics to my portfolio this week.

  • Alphabet: While I might consider a short-term exit later, I decided to buy in due to the incredible growth potential in Quantum Computing.
  • Samsung Electronics: Samsung is showing positive signals across all its business divisions. While it’s hard to predict the exact peak, I believe now is the right timing if we are to see a further breakout.

2. Specialized Growth: 1Q US Aerospace & Tech ETF (Rocket Lab, etc.)

I’ve made a strategic move into the 1Q US Aerospace & Tech sector. To be honest, I am not an expert in the specifics of space engineering, so I chose to rely on a curated ETF. With rumors of SpaceX's potential IPO and the rapid expansion of the sector, investing through an expert-managed fund felt like the smartest entry point.

3. Riding the Automation Wave: KODEX Robot Active ETF

Similarly, I invested in the KODEX Robot Active ETF. The Korean robotics industry has massive growth potential. Since I wanted professional selection and management in this complex field, I opted for an active ETF to capture the best opportunities in the robotics market.

4. The "Pepe Coin" Surge: A Sign of Market Recovery?

One of the most notable events this week was the sudden pump in Pepe Coin (PEPE). In my view, when "meme coins"—the most speculative assets—start to surge, it often indicates that market liquidity is loosening and investor appetite for risk is returning. I see this as a potential leading indicator for an upcoming market rebound.

5. Market Sentiment: Is the Bottom In?

My overall "gut feeling" is that the U.S. stock market is beginning to show signs of a bounce. Barring any black swan events, I believe the period of heavy correction or decline is slowing down, making way for a steady recovery.

Closing Thoughts That concludes my diary for the second week of January. Whether it’s through steady blue chips or forward-looking tech ETFs, the key is to stay positioned for the next move. Thank you for reading! :)

Piry’s Insight: Markets move in cycles. Even amidst volatility, the long-term trajectory for fundamental-heavy companies remains upward. If you believe in the tech of the future—like Quantum or Space—patience is your best ally.

[Investment Diary #33] My Strategic Picks for Jan Week 4: Hanwha Ocean, K-POP, Meta, and Tesla

  Hello! This is Piry, a blogger and Bitget influencer. :) Welcome to my 33nd investment diary. This week, I’ve reorganized my portfolio by focusing on companies with clear upcoming catalysts and cutting-edge tech. Here are the details of my recent "Buy & Sell" decisions based on Gemini's analysis. 🚢 1. Hanwha Ocean: Riding the Naval MRO Wave I newly added Hanwha Ocean to my portfolio. The core reason is its growing relationship with the U.S. government. They've recently secured contracts for U.S. naval ship maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services. With news of them potentially acquiring additional shipyards in the U.S., I see significant long-term growth potential in the global defense and shipbuilding sector.   Technical Insight: Why Hanwha Ocean’s Expansion into the U.S. Matters Why I’m Bullish: A Technical Perspective The reason I am particularly bullish on Hanwha Ocean goes beyond simple contract wins. It’s about "Technological...

[Nov 2025] Why is the Global Stock Market Shaking? Key Causes of the Crash and Future Outlook

  Hello, this is Piry, a blogger and Bitget influencer. :) Today, I want to discuss the synchronized global market downturn that has been keeping many investors awake. As of late November 2025, many of you might be feeling anxious looking at the "sea of blue" (losses) in your portfolios. I will break down why this is happening and where the market is headed from short, medium, and long-term perspectives. 📉 3 Core Reasons Behind the Current Market Slump The "fear" dominating the market in late 2025 isn't caused by a single factor. We are witnessing a 'Perfect Storm' of several negative catalysts. 1. The Aftershock of 'Tariff Bombs' from the Second Trump Administration The aggressive tariff policies that began earlier this year hit the market hard again in November. Specifically, as President Trump hinted at additional tariffs on certain allies and agricultural products, fears of a full-scale 'Trade War' have resurfaced, straining...
