Ask u all, if a stock is listed in both HK and US, its better to buy in HK market correct? Because if got dividend US side will take 30% cut. Is my logic correct?

If that stock pays dividend maybe.

But you might not want to have so many diff currencies. So maybe better still to go with US if the dividend isn’t great.

Don’t be impatient when it comes to money… ;)

if you read about past AAPL split, history may likely to repeat
historical performance is not an indication of future outcome.

Being too patient can also end up losing money

Snowflake IPO: Opportunity, Risk, And The Big Unknown
Aug. 31, 2020

Business
In simple terms, Snowflake allows companies to store all kinds of data from different sources in the cloud, and it also provides the capabilities to analyze such data and to easily access and share it from everywhere at any time.

Customers always have the choice of going to Snowflake or going directly to one of the big cloud players such as Amazon, Microsoft, and Google. The big advantage of Snowflake is that it is much more focused and it also provides the possibility to diversify among the big 3 in the public cloud, which gives customers more flexibility, more control, and perhaps some negotiating power.

Finances
The top-line numbers from Snowflake are truly outstanding, with quarterly revenue growing 121% last quarter. The revenue retention rate of 158% is exceptionally high,

Gross profit margin is in the neighborhood of 61.5% of revenue, which is not particularly high at all. Gross margin has increased over time and can probably increase a bit more due to scale in the future,

the company made less than $149 million in gross profit and it spent $190.5 million in sales and marketing alone during the six months period ended in July.

Why did they allowed this to happen in the first place?

So I can also open a Wacdonalds and wont be sued by Macdonalds?

does anyone notice this observation? For the past 1 week, both vix index and s&p 500 have been going up. In fact, vix went up like 17% past one week while s&p500 also went up quite strongly. In fact, past 1 week, s&p500 went up 4.4% which is a strong surge by any measure.

Apart from the narrowing breadth in stocks remaining green, any other explanation?

A 1 or even 2 day divergence is fine. Vix and s&p are usually inverse but this has been ongoing for a week and continuing. Something has got to give either way...

The professionals have changed the way they are playing this game lah.... all buy straddles .... so far, none of them dare to short a market that is fueled by liquidity but they also know that the underlying fundamentals super jiat lat.... at the same time, they cannot dun participate... so buy calls to participate - limited risk .... then they also buy put to protect portfolio.... so if market turns, then they can start shorting liaoz... so far no shorting yet but when it turns.... siao liaoz.

Just to warn. When the next correction comes, it will happen fast and furious again like it did in the beginning of the year.

Just be prepared.

Personally, I am starting to unwind my US stocks. Now is not the time to be greedy.
