Companies handing out dividends, especially growing dividends are good signs of companies generating free cash flow. This will also be reflected in capital gains for the stock as pe ratio expands.
Therefore, dividends and capital gains does goes together. Of course, there are exceptions, like Berkshire Hathaway. It does not give dividends but grows its free cash flow. Instead, the money is used to invest in companies paying dividends with capital gains.

Nothing against Michael Saylor. But his comments inviting sceptics to short his stock reminds me of the saying that appears in Taiwanese drama on haughty people.
It will be an interesting 5 weeks to trade due to the earnings season, us election and fed meeting in November.

A Malay proverb "sedikit, sedikit, lama-lama jadi bukit" which translates to a little bit adds up to a big mountain. Similarly, a Chinese idiom "积沙成塔＂also implies accumulating small amounts will lead to heaps.

I am primarily invested in Singapore market. Singapore small and mid-cap stocks are seriously undervalued because of lack of institutional interest. No doubt, some of them have poor balance sheet and weak cash flow or still making a loss. However, there are companies like $Delfi (P34.SG)$ $Tai Sin Electric (500.SG)$ which have been paying decent dividends and their valuation is not expensive.

Oil price is rising again and that could disrupt federal reserve 's plan for rate cuts. The falling treasuries price is already reflecting that possibility.
If iran - Israel conflict gets worse, all bets are off. Not even the fed can save the market from falling. This will be 1970s market deja vu. Stagflation.

$Short S&P 500 Proshares (SH.US)$ I was surprised by how strong the us payrolls data was in September 2024. If you look closely, growth was mainly in three sectors, apart from government sector, the rest are most probably part time service jobs.
Us consumers are stretched and are now living on credit, soon banks will also cut off their credit if they can't pay up.

I followed $WUXI APPTEC (02359.HK)$ earlier in the year when US was contemplating a bill to ban us entities receiving government funds from doing business with China biotech companies which includes Wuxi Apptec.
The bill is now to be submitted to Senate. Wuxi Apptec has been dumped such that it became cheaper,. Wuxi Apptec decided to throw in the towel by selling their us operations while they still could get a good price.
Thus, its shares exploded higher....

Day 6 did nothing. Last day, I sold my thailand etf at a slight loss since the price isn't going to change in the last day of competition and switch over to a defensive stock $Berkshire Hathaway-B (BRK.B.US)$ which I always wanted to own.
