The momentum is strong in this one. I believe we'll ride with it into an upward trend especially with the feel-good factor to consider with Trump's 2nd reign beginning although expection of multiple rate cuts has been subdued. The euphoria will then fizzle out in the 2nd half and end up at 6,500-ish by year end. That being said, for those who invest passively, hang tight on your stable income and stay on the course with your investment, don't let our DCA stop at any point. We'll surely be able to reap the rewards decades down the road #stayinvested

Next year will be fantastic for all asset classes. Firstly, Donald Trump will be President of the World and he is a great business man. Business men makes great Presidents. Then he will be assisted by the visionary ELON MUSK!!! I'm telling you - we are going to the MOON - metaphorically and literally - with $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ and SpaceX. Invest now and get rich in 2025.

I am feeling optimistic about the market in 2025, especially with the U.S. economy showing resilience and potential policy shifts boosting growth. My investment strategy will focus on blue-chip stocks—they offer stability, steady dividends, and long-term growth potential. Companies in sectors like tech, healthcare, and consumer staples will likely be my go-to picks, as they tend to perform well regardless of market conditions.
