⛏️ During the 1849 Gold Rush, the real fortunes went to merchants selling picks and shovels, not the miners.
Same story today. While everyone fights to buy Nvidia at record highs, Malaysia is quietly supplying the picks and shovels for the entire AI buildout and Bursa's tech index just had a violent rally because of it.
Fundamentals are real. US$600B+ in AI data centre spend through 2028, much of it through Penang and Kulim.

In this Weekly Wrap-Up (0:05-0:12), Chief Market Strategist Gareth #Soloway provides a technical analysis of the current market landscape, noting signs of potential exhaustion in the tech sector.
Key Market Insights:
Tech & AI Sector: The semiconductor and AI-related stocks faced a significant downturn (0:34-1:44). Gareth highlights Micron's earnings-driven pullback as a sign of "peak euphoria" and "peak margins" (1:06-1:28), emphasizing that the broader market is anticipating weaker performance in the coming 6-12 months.
Technical Analysis:
S&P 500: Gareth identifies a critical "failed breakout" of a long-term parallel trend line (2:23-5:47). He warns that if the index sustains a lower low next week, it could signal a larger downward trend.
Sector Rotation: While AI stocks lagged, there was a noticeable rotation of capital into previously "hammered" stocks like Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta (2:01-2:13).
Other Asset Classes:
Dollar & Bonds: A strong dollar remains a concern for corporate earnings (8:06-8:29), while the 10-year yield's downward movement suggests potential economic slowdown concerns (8:58-9:30).
Commodities: Gareth notes that while gold and silver have been in a freefall (15:47-16:08), oil is approaching a potential technical support level where a bounce might occur (17:21-18:04). Bitcoin is currently struggling at support, with sentiment leaning toward extreme bearishness (19:18-19:58).
Market Outlook:
Gareth reminds investors that cyclical corrections are natural and that extreme optimism in specific sectors is often a contrarian sell signal (13:32-14:18). Looking ahead, he anticipates a potentially slower week leading into the July 4th holiday (5:50-6:22) and continues to provide daily updates to help investors navigate market volatility.

In 2025, the world's central banks quietly began holding more gold than U.S. Treasuries for the first time in a generation, and Jay argues this is not really a story about gold, it's the clearest signal yet that the dollar's reign has no heir. In this episode, Jay runs the numbers on every supposed successor to the dollar, China, the euro, the yen and pound, a BRICS currency, even stablecoins, and shows why each one fails the test, leaving the throne empty for the first time in 600 years. This is a look at what happens when an empire's currency begins to fade but no rival is ready to take the crown, and why central banks are quietly piling into the one money no government can print or freeze.

No B.S. Just Charts.
Everyone is bearish on Bitcoin right now, and that alone is the alarm bell. In this video I walk through why the near-term setup on Bitcoin and crypto is flashing bullish, even while the mid-term picture stays lower. Sentiment is too lopsided, the negativity around Michael Saylor is at an extreme, and the charts are showing positive RSI divergences across multiple timeframes.

I show you exactly what a positive divergence is, prove it on a past chart where it played out, and then apply it live to Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Cardano, and Chainlink. I also overlay the semiconductors against Bitcoin to show you the crocodile jaws setup and why money flow may be rotating back into crypto.
This is not a no-brainer and it is not a green light to go long and walk away. I give you the level that confirms the move and the level that kills it. Risk three percent to make fifteen. That is the kind of setup I look for.
Watch the levels. Price is truth.
