So what this tells us is that this is not a broad based sell off. Selling concentrated in the tech sector. If you have a diversified portfolio this is normal market volatility.
Diversification remains the golden rule of investing.
The oil curve is now pricing in a far more extended oil shock than what we saw in '22. Dec contracts now pricing oil 40% higher to end '26 relative to the 60 bucks to start the year.
This year, we laid the groundwork for broader access to Bitcoin utility, and hit major milestones along the way.
In 2026, we’re taking the next steps towards GoMining’s breakout year as an all-in-one Bitcoin ecosystem.

There is always a crisis brewing around the corner. If that stops you from investing that would mean you have missed out on the 10% annualised returns of the $SPX $voo $spy since 1928. Don’t try to time the market. The best way to weather volatility and drawdowns is a diversified portfolio and saving regularly into the market.
Every decade has a reason not to invest.
Wars. Crashes. Inflation. Pandemics.
But from 1930–2025, the S&P 500 compounded at 10% annually.
Lesson: there’s always something, yet the market finds a way.
That is why diversification is key to long term wealth creation. Miss those 4% of companies and you would not grow at all. Own the entire market and you are sure to own the 4% and grow long term.

Absolutely insane fact:
Diversification is essential to capture returns. Over the last 93 years, 4% of stocks have driven 100% of U.S. stock market wealth creation. The other 96% are break even.

Initial thoughts in the Fed decision:
1. As expected a 25bps cut
2. Three dissents. Not bad. But forward is just one cut which is a bit hawkish. So they wanted to balance a cut with hawkish outlook in my view.
3. For me sounds about right given the lack of data. An insurance cut accompanied by a hawkish guidance. Seems prudent until we get more data and buys them time

The conventional narrative is that the Mag7 stocks are the ones carrying the $SPX earnings growth. But a deeper look under the hood reveals that while the Mag7 earnings are definitely growing faster than the rest of the market, the remain in g 493 companies earnings are also growing at a respectable double digit rate.
MAG 7 earnings up 18.4% YoY in Q3, lowest since Q1 '23.
The other 493? 14.7% vs expected 5.9%.
Yes, the big 7 make a lot of money, but that doesn't mean the other 493 aren't doing well. They are.
