$Pfizer(PFE.US)$ Pfizer will provide an additional 2.5 million courses of oral COVID-19 drug Paxlovid to the UK. Pfizer said it expects 2.75 million courses of Paxlovid to be delivered to the UK by 2022. Last month, Pfizer said it planned to seek approval for Paxlovid in Europe. In addition, the United States will purchase 10 million doses of Paxlovid for $5.3 billion.

$Pfizer(PFE.US)$ Pfizer has predicted that the coronavirus pandemic will last until 2024, meaning humans will still be battling the virus for the next two years. In addition to stepping up vaccination, recent advances in drug development for COVID-19 will provide important additional protection for those at high risk. According to the latest data from Pfizer, the company's COVID-19 oral antiviral drug can reduce the risk of severe COVID-19 infection by nearly 90%.

$UBS Group(UBS.US)$ $Pfizer(PFE.US)$ $Moderna(MRNA.US)$ UBS says Omicron is a short-term impediment to the economy.
European countries are taking additional measures to deal with the surge in coronavirus infections, including a renewed lockdown in the Netherlands and tighter travel restrictions during the peak holiday season.
Meanwhile, debate continues over whether the new strain of the virus has less of an impact than its predecessor, and how effectively to combat the mutant strain.

"The economic impact of the virus itself is relatively limited. What has an impact on the economy is the fear of the virus, " said Donovan, Group Chief Economist, UBS. "This was the first virus with a social media hashtag, which increased the fear of the virus and affected the economy. "What we have to realize now is that the level of fear has gone down a lot as vaccination has become more widespread."

TWO: What do you think of meme stocks?
@Machiavellis3rdEyeused vivid language to call for rational investing and remind mooers to watch out for media manipulations. Do you agree with him?
"You ARE ALL MY ALLIES, regardless of your investment choices, politics, religions, colors, sex, or anything else! I say we start learning and adapting to their constantly evolving illegal games (media manipulation, PFOF, CB's) together. Then we will all figure out how to take that cheese - without getting TRAPPED."

FOUR: Will the strong momentum of recovery stocks fade?
On Nov 5, Pfizer introduced a new COVID-19 antiviral pill that is expected to treat 89% of acutely hospitalized patients and thus reduce the risk of death. @HuatEveranticipated that Pfizer's share price would continue to climb once the FDA approved the new antiviral pill. What do you think?

SIX: How do you decide when to buy/sell?
@HopeAlwayssaid that there is no best way to determine when to buy and when to sell the stocks of indexes. The timings depend on investing goals, philosophies, and personal preferences.
"The three main risks are company, valuation and earnings risks. Once we are able to find a stock that that signals low risk based on these three conditions, it is time to buy. Whenever a negative change happens to any of the three conditions,  it is time to sell."

SEVEN: How do you know when to stop loss / take profit?
@Powerhousehas three underlying principles in stopping losses and taking profits. All investors should stay informed and closely observe trends to set price targets.
"For micro, there is a need to determine your present financial risk appetite figuratively. On the macro level, situations may have changed. Determining when is the most precise time to stop loss or take profit of a stock and milk the most out of it is extremely difficult."

moomoo annual ceremony is happening right now! Check it out here:  2021 in Review: Grow Together to the Moon!

$Pfizer(PFE.US)$ $Moderna(MRNA.US)$ The coronavirus is mutating, and even after vaccination, there is still concern. In addition, vaccination rates are not high enough to achieve herd immunity (70%). About 60% of adults in the US are fully vaccinated, according to the Mayo Clinic. As a result, the US is still reeling from the virus, and the pressures of the pandemic are affecting consumer confidence.

$Apple(AAPL.US)$ you’re the apple of my eyes 👁

The stock market's rapid rebound is good news for ETF traders who've sunk a record $1.5 billion on a high-octane tech bet.
With the $NASDAQ 100 Index(.NDX.US)$ surging on Tuesday and Wendsday, it looks like vindication for investors who poured into the $ProShares UltraPro QQQ ETF(TQQQ.US)$ en masse in the Friday rout.
What is TQQQ?
$ProShares UltraPro QQQ ETF(TQQQ.US)$ is one of the largest leveraged ETF that tracks the $NASDAQ 100 Index(.NDX.US)$. The index is focusing on large international and U.S. companies in the technology, health care, industrial, consumer discretionary, and telecommunications sectors. TQQQ uses derivatives and debt to increase the returns to investors.
The fund, which uses options to deliver three-times the benchmark's performance, is among market leaders after cratering last week thanks to the Federal Reserve's hawkish tilt and concerns about the omicron variant.
Flow data, which arrives with a one-day lag because of the way the fund settles, showed investors added an unprecedented $1.47 billion at the end of last week. More than $13 billion of shares in TQQQ had changed hands in the session as it slumped 5%.
Higher interest rates make so-called growth stocks less appealing because much of their value is linked to potential future earnings, which are less attractive if yields are high or rising. Nonetheless, betting against the tech giants has rarely paid off. The likes of $Apple(AAPL.US)$ and $Microsoft(MSFT.US)$ still dominate their industries, while investors often rush to the safety of the mega caps at times of economic doubt.
As a leveraged fund, TQQQ is intended for short-term trading. Yet such is the power of Big Tech, an investor who stayed put in the last five years would have seen the ETF return almost 1,500%.
