March 18th - Recently, reports of HK$300 billion of Middle Eastern capital flowing into Hong Kong have been circulating widely in the market. After interviewing several Hong Kong banks, securities firms, financial institutions, and Middle Eastern market researchers, it was learned that since the outbreak of conflict in the Middle East, there has indeed been an increase in foreign capital inflows into the Hong Kong market, including some funds from the Middle East. However, the specific scale and true destination of these inflows are difficult to accurately quantify and verify. What is clear is that: on the one hand, the turmoil in the Middle East has led to a continued rise in global demand for safe-haven assets; on the other hand, Middle Eastern capital has been continuously investing in the Hong Kong and mainland capital markets over the past two years, making Hong Kong an important choice for global capital allocation, including Middle Eastern capital.On March 18th, Tencent executives responded to questions about rising storage chip prices, stating that the surge in demand for artificial intelligence has not only driven a rebound in demand for DRAM and high-bandwidth memory (HBM), but also a comprehensive recovery in demand for CPUs, solid-state drives (SSDs), and hard disk drives (HDDs). Orders now need to be placed months, quarters, or even years in advance. Suppliers are prioritizing their largest and most stable clients, such as Tencent Cloud. Smaller cloud vendors are now finding it difficult to secure stable supply chain support. The Tencent executives indicated that, under these circumstances, the industry may have no choice but to pass on increased costs to higher prices. In the past 24 hours, several Chinese cloud vendors have raised prices across multiple areas.The Ukrainian military has attacked an aircraft manufacturing plant in Russias Ulyanovsk region.Google: Threat intelligence group Google Tiger has identified threat actors who have deployed exploit chains against targets in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Malaysia and Ukraine.Pakistan will suspend airstrikes against Afghanistan from March 19 to 24.

S&P 500 Continues to Look Uneasy

Technical Analysis of the S&P 500

As we continue to witness a lot of volatility, the S&P 500 has climbed a little bit throughout the trading session on Wednesday. The market is likely to remain volatile for the foreseeable being, but I believe it will only be a matter of time until the sellers return to the market and begin shorting.


The 3700 level has held, but right now, investors are expecting the Federal Reserve to become more active in combating inflation, which would be beneficial in the near run. That said, it'll only be a matter of time until we're short again, therefore I'm searching for a source of weariness in which we may participate.


Because the economy is slowing, I don't have a scenario in which I'd be prepared to purchase the S&P 500 at this time. We aren't seeing a pace of change that favors growth, and the stock market will suffer in the long run until that happens. Yes, there may be large bad market rallies from time to time, but I believe this will eventually be a good chance to short it again.


It's possible that we'll break out to the outside if we can break above the 50-Day EMA. The 4200 level is a significant barrier, and a break over it might signal a significant trend shift. We're a long way from there right now, and I believe the worst is still ahead of us. A strong short-term rise makes sense, but I believe the underlying trend will continue given enough time.
