The pre-market session is showing strong resilience. It's not just a "green day," but a clear reaction to specific fundamental catalysts. Here is why the key players are moving:

🚀 Aerospace - $RKLB (+0,39%) (+2.55%): Rocket Lab's outperformance is driven by its increasing "launch cadence" and the de-risking of its Neutron program. As the space economy shifts from speculative to industrial, RKLB is capturing a massive share of the small-to-medium satellite market.

💻 Semiconductors - $NVDA (+2,51%) (+1.41%): The bounce is fueled by softer-than-expected inflation data, which provides a "green light" for high-multiple tech stocks. With AI demand still outstripping supply, the fundamental case for Nvidia remains bulletproof heading into 2026.

⚛️ Energy - $OKLO (+1.70%) & $NNE : We are witnessing a "Nuclear Renaissance." The market is pricing in the massive power requirements of next-gen data centers. OKLO is benefiting from the positive spillover of recent regulatory breakthroughs in the SMR (Small Modular Reactor) space.

🌏 China Tech - $BABA (-0,16%) (+1.48%): Sentiment on Chinese equities is improving as macro data points to a stabilizing export machine. Alibaba remains the primary vehicle for investors looking to play the recovery of the Eastern consumer.

The "Red" Side: What's Cooling Down? 🧊

Banking & Finance: We see slight pressure on $UCG (-0,66%) (-0.50%) and $AXP (+0,46%) (-0.27%). This isn't a crash, but profit-taking. After a strong run for financial stocks, investors are rotating capital out of Value to fund the new leg of the Tech rally.

Big Tech Lagging: While $MSFT (-0,43%) and $GOOGL (+1,6%) are slightly positive, they are underperforming the broader tech market. The focus has shifted from software platforms to hardware providers and infrastructure.

Conclusion: I am staying long on Energy Infrastructure and Specialized Tech. The convergence of AI power needs and Space logistics is the strongest narrative for the upcoming year.

What’s your top conviction for the final sessions of 2025? Let’s talk in the comments! 👇

The mid-week session is defined by an aggressive shift from overextended Tech into Financials and Aerospace.

🌍 THE MACRO SHOCK: TRUMP’S VENEZUELA BLOCKADE

The biggest geopolitical mover today is the U.S. naval blockade of sanctioned oil tankers into Venezuela.

The Impact: Crude prices spiked >1% instantly. This is providing a massive tailwind for energy and commodity-linked sectors.

The Shift: This "geopolitical premium" is forcing capital into hard assets. Silver just hit a record high above $66, with Gold following. 🛢️🔥🥈

🇪🇺 EUROPE: INFLATION COLLAPSE & CENTRAL BANK FEVER

EU indices are ripping because UK CPI fell sharper than expected this morning (3.2% vs 3.4% exp).

The Reaction: A shockwave through the bond market. Traders are now pricing in a near-certain Bank of England (BoE) rate cut tomorrow.

The "Trifecta": We are in a "relief rally" ahead of tomorrow’s massive data dump: ECB, BoE, and U.S. CPI. Markets are front-running a Dovish pivot from Lagarde. 🏦📉

🏦 THE ITALIAN BANKING RALLY

$$BPE (-0,02%) (+2.1%) | $ISP (-1,29%) (+1.8%) | $UCG (-0,66%) (+1.7%)

The Driver: Resilience in Net Interest Margins (NIM) as the ECB easing cycle appears slower than feared.

The Catalyst: Massive shareholder distribution. $UCG (-0,66%) and $ISP (-1,29%) are acting as "cash machines," using buybacks to floor the price against any macro noise.

⚙️ AEROSPACE & DEFENSE MOMENTUM

$$RR. (+0,6%) (+1.75%) | $LDO (-0,22%) (+1.4%) | $RKLB (+0,39%) (+1.3%)

The Driver: Rolls-Royce ($RR.L) just initiated a new £200M interim buyback starting Jan 2, immediately following their £1B 2025 program.

Context: Institutional accumulation in Defense is at peak levels as a structural hedge against 2026 geopolitical uncertainty.

📦 RETAIL & CLOUD RESILIENCE

$AMZN (+1,13%) (+1.19%)

The Driver: Wall Street is digesting the delayed Non-Farm Payrolls (64k added, but unemployment at 2021 highs).

The Sentiment: "Bad news is good news." A weakening labor market gives the Fed more ammo to cut. $AMZN (+1,13%) is catching the bid as BMO Capital hikes PT to $304, citing AWS cloud acceleration. 📊💼

⚠️ SECTOR ROTATION: THE "AI BUBBLE" PAUSE

$NVDA (+2,51%) (-0.25%) | $BTC (-0,22%) (~$86.7k) | $TRX (-0,53%) (-0.4%)

The Analysis: Pure profit-taking. Capital is bleeding out of high-beta Tech and Crypto to fund the rally in "Value" equities (Banks/Industrials).

The Risk: If $NVDA (+2,51%) loses its 20-day EMA at the US open, expect a broader drag on the Nasdaq. 🏛️➡️💻

After having invested before in $1COV (+0,2%) with the aim to be acquired by Adnoc/XRG and another investment in $ILTY Illimity Bank in Italy giving access to $IF (-0,55%) Banca IFIS with a 10% discount.

I'm now thinking to invest in further banking consolidation. Since there seems to be a wave of banking consolidations coming up both cross boarder and within individual European countries.

Italy shows:

$UCG (-0,66%) Unicredit stakebuilding in both $ALPHA (+0,29%) Alphabank & $CBK (+0,14%) Commerzbank and a failled attempt to acquire $BAMI (+0,16%) Banco BPM. We saw $BMPS (+0,38%) Monte dei Pachi acquire $MB (-0,23%) Mediobanca. $BPE (-0,02%) Bper Banca merge with $BPSO (-0,09%) and rumored to be on the wishlist of Unicredit.

Denmark is consolidating but could be still more ongoing:

A recent merger of $SYDB (+0,5%) Sydbank, Arbejdernes Landsbank & $VJBA Vestjysk Bank.

In Spain

We've seen a major but failed attempt to forget about the Spanish attempt of $BBVA (-1%) Banco Bilbao of $SAB (+0,33%) Banco Sabadell.

The Netherlands:

$ING (+0%) ING taking a substantial stake in $VLK (-0,66%) Van Lanschot Kempen.

$ABN (-0,34%) Doing several take overs in Germany and buying the trading app Bux and rumored to be bought themselves.

When thinking this through I see a potential for take over but, if it won't happen there is still good dividends to be earned. Therefore there is less of a need of a quick turn around.

I'm now looking for a "smaller" bank that traded and a likely take over candidate.

Where would you invest?

$BPE (-0,02%) - Bper Banca - Italy

$BAMI (+0,16%) - Banca BPM - Italy

$ABN (-0,34%) - ABN Amro Bank - Netherlands

$ALPHA (+0,29%) - Alpha Bank - Greece

$JYSK (+0,7%) - Jyske Bank - Denmark

$ALR (-0,81%) - Ailor Bank - Poland

Any other alternatives, or opinions about this idea, I'm happy to read!

Hey everyone!

As I hinted, I've officially kicked off my portfolio recalibration strategy for 2026. It's not just about "adjusting" percentages; it's about positioning for the next economic cycle.

Today's move was twofold: I've increased the capital invested in both the Italian banking sector with $UCG (-0,66%) and in the yellow metal with $GLD (+0,78%) (the Gold ETF).

🎯 The Logic Behind the Increase

1. Geopolitical Risk & Rate Expectations (Gold - $GLD (+0,78%) )

I've boosted my Gold position for two key, reinforcing reasons:

Defensive Hedge: Gold's current strong rally confirms its role as a safe-haven asset amidst global geopolitical uncertainty. Despite recent turbulence in $BTC (-0,22%) , Gold continues to consolidate its strength.

Fed Softening: Growing expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut, supported by weaker US economic data, lead to a weaker dollar. This, in turn, makes Gold more attractive to international investors. Gold is enjoying its best performance since 1979, with analysts projecting prices up to $5,000 an ounce by 2026.

2. European Banking Sector ($UCG (-0,66%) ): Margins & Dividends

The increase in UniCredit ($UCG (-0,66%) ) is based on a thesis of value, resilience, and direct profitability:

Stable EU Rates: While the Fed is considering cuts, expectations for the European Central Bank (ECB) are that it will maintain stable rates for longer than its US counterpart. Sustained high or stable rates are a direct advantage for the interest margins of European banks.

Dividends & Buybacks: Increasing capital in UniCredit is also part of my strategy to boost the overall dividend flow of my portfolio. The bank has shown a strong commitment to shareholder remuneration through growing dividends and consistent buyback programs, thereby strengthening the passive income component of the portfolio.

Solid Fundamentals: UniCredit has demonstrated resilience and strong capital generation. Within the European context, the banking sector is viewed as a value area that continues to benefit from the operating margins offered by the current rate cycle. My strategy is to capture this value before the ECB begins a more aggressive easing cycle.

📈 Immediate Portfolio Impact

A quick update on fresh numbers: the portfolio ended November slightly down, marking -0.39%. The great news is that, in these first few days of December, the strategy has already paid off: we're already at +0.73% this month! This means we’ve fully recovered the dip from late last month and are already firmly in positive territory to finish the year strong.

What are your thoughts on these two moves? Are you exposed to Gold or European banks?

$GLD (+0,78%)
$UCG (-0,66%)
$BTC (-0,22%)
$BBVA (-1%)
$BPE (-0,02%)
$AAPL (-0,98%)
$NVDA (+2,51%)
$ASTS (-0,68%)
$HIMS (-0,64%)

November 12, 2025: The Market is Ready to Run.

The pre-market sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, driven by the powerful macro catalyst of the impending end of the longest US government shutdown. This political breakthrough, combined with signs of a slowing labor market that fuels Fed rate cut bets (67% chance in December), has unlocked broad optimism.

Our portfolio is seizing this momentum, already locking in a +0.7% gain this morning!

📈 Alpha Generation: Our Strategy Delivers

Our disciplined strategy is generating significant alpha, continuing to outperform major benchmarks over the past two months:

Portfolio Performance: Our portfolio has climbed +7.7% in the last two months.

Benchmark Performance: This compares favorably against the S&P 500's +5.63% and the Dow Jones' +3.98% in the same period.

🇪🇺 Key Drivers: Europe Leads the Charge

Today's +0.7% gain is strategically targeted, proving our positioning is correct, particularly in Europe:

1. European Financials (The Value Trade): The Eurozone rally is strong, with European indices opening positively (Frankfurt +0.59%, Paris +0.40%, Milan +0.48% at $44,652 points). This is supported by the slight easing of German inflation to $2.3% in October. Our holdings are surging:

$BPE (-0,02%)

$ISP (-1,29%)

$UCG (-0,66%)

$BBVA (-1%)

2. Growth Outlook (RKLB): While $RKLB is still in the red in the portfolio, we remain highly confident in its ability to return to profit soon. We are focusing on fundamental strength and long-term trends in the aerospace sector.

3. Defensive Core: Our safe-haven assets are holding steady; Gold ($GLD$) is showing slight positivity this morning, consolidating recent gains as the market anticipates the release of key US economic data.

🧠 Deep Dive: Why the Market is Running Today

The market is moving because key sources of uncertainty are clearing and liquidity expectations are rising:

Political Gridlock Ends: The House is set to vote today, November 12th, on a compromise bill that will restore funding to government agencies and end the US shutdown. This passage is crucial, as it will unblock critical economic data like CPI and employment, which have been long-awaited.

Rate Cuts Are Back on the Table: The latest weak ADP job data reinforces bets on Federal Reserve easing. Fed Funds futures are now pricing a 67% probability of a 25-basis-point cut in December. This renewed dovish sentiment is the primary fuel for equity markets, despite minor tech sector consolidation.

Contrasting Macro: The market is managing to rally despite the Treasury placing €8.5 Billion in 12-month BOTs and continued caution regarding the final signature on the funding bill.

Actionable Insight: We are positioned to benefit from the return of liquidity and the dovish pivot while capitalizing on targeted value trades in Europe. The momentum is here.

⚠️ Disclaimer: Past performance is not indicative of future results. Investing involves risks, including the loss of capital.

The week opens with a decisive risk-off move. Selling pressure is widespread, hitting Technology and European Equities hard, as investors reduce exposure across major sectors.

🇺🇸 US Equities (Pre-market/Early Trading)

$SPX500 — Trading sharply lower, dragged down by losses in Tech and general risk aversion.

$DJ30 — Moving down, tracking the overall negative market sentiment.

$NSDQ100 — Leading the losses, as major tech components face significant selling pressure.

💻 Tech & Growth Snapshot

$NVDA (+2,51%) — Facing selling pressure in the semiconductor space.

$GOOGL (+1,6%) — Down sharply, reflecting the market's flight from growth.

$MSFT (-0,43%) — Down, tracking the negative tech trend.

$TSM (+1%) — Down, showing weakness in the chip sector.

$RKLB (+0,39%) — Speculative growth continues to underperform in this environment.

🛍️ Retail & Commerce

One of the hardest-hit sectors, indicating pessimism on consumer health:

$AMZN (+1,13%) — Down significantly, hit by the broad tech sell-off.

$BABA (-0,16%) — The biggest loser on the heatmap, selling off sharply amid continued China macro concerns.

$SHOP (-0,53%) — Following the sharp negative sentiment from the e-commerce space.

⚕️ Health & Pharmaceutical

A sector showing minor relative strength, as investors seek defensive names:

$LLY (-0,65%) / $HIMS (-0,64%) / $INSM (+0,33%) — Likely flat or slightly down, holding up better than cyclical sectors as investors pause the rotation out of defensive pharma/biotech.

🇪🇺 Europe & Industrials

All European indices are in the red, led by Finance and Industrials:

STOXX 600 — Trading lower, with selling pressure visible in banks and autos.

GER40 — Trading lower, reflecting widespread European weakness.

Italian Indices(FTSE MIB) — Trading down approx -1.02%.

🏦 Banking & Finance

Under general pressure, reflecting global economic caution:

$UCG (-0,66%) / $CS (-0,97%) / $BPE (-0,02%) — European banks are down, but losses are relatively contained compared to Tech.

$BBVA (-1%) — Flat, showing relative stability against the negative trend.

$AXP (+0,46%) / $V (+0,54%) — Likely trading lower, following the broader financial and cyclical trend.

🌏 Asia

Asian markets are expected to close mixed to negative, heavily impacted by the continued sharp sell-off in major Chinese names like $BABA.

💎 Commodities & Precious Metals

$GLD (+0,78%) — Holding steady and flat.The Oro is stable near the $4,000 mark. The fact that Gold is NOT selling off alongside equities suggests this is a stock market correction/profit-taking eventrather than a systemic risk flight.

$BRENT / $WTI — Trading slightly lower, reflecting reduced expectations for global demand.

💰 Crypto

$BTC (-0,22%) / $ETH (-0,97%) / $TRX (-0,53%) — Likely moving lower, following the Nasdaq and the overall risk-off mood.

🔎 Deep Dive: The "Systemic Risk" Pause

Today is a classic "Risk-Off"day driven by profit-taking and macro uncertainty. The market is broadly selling, but the stability of Gold ($GLD)is the key takeaway. In true systemic fear, Gold skyrockets. Its flatness suggests this is a healthy, albeit painful, correction in the equity space, not a collapse. The capital is not fleeing the system, it's just rotating to the sidelines.

Despite this volatility, my view remains unchanged: I have strong, unwavering confidence in Gold as a core protective and strategic asset for the long term.

🔎 Deep Dive: The "Quality Growth" Rally

Today is a "flight to quality growth." The market is not buying everything; it is highly selective. There is clear strength in established Tech ($NVDA, $GOOGL) and a massive rally in European Banks ($BPE.MI, $BBVA.MC). However, there is clear weakness in Chinese Retail ($BABA, $SHOP) and speculative Tech ($RGTI, $RKLB). This divergence signals that investors are willing to take risks, but only on assets with strong fundamentals or clear momentum, while dumping assets exposed to Chinese macro or high speculation.
