$iShares Semiconductor ETF(SOXX.US)

Context: Following the recent market dip, I am waiting for the semiconductor stocks to rebound as I think AI hardware and memory chip demand will continue to drive sector outperformance.

My trade: I am holding on to my existing SOXX position while waiting for the rebound, to maintain long-term exposure to semiconductor growth.

Takeaway: Going forward, I plan to enter another position at better prices to DCA, if Mr Market decides to dip, especially since September has historically prove to be more volatile compared to other months.

$Defiance AI & Power Infrastructure ETF(AIPO.US)

Context: This ETF choice came due to strong demand for energy-focused AI supply chain plays. With the rapid expansion of AI data centers, power grid capacity and energy infrastructure have become major beneficiaries as a result.

My trade: To take advantage to invest in the energy behind AI, i opened a long position in AIPO to capture the growth in AI power demand. This thematic ETF offers diversified exposure across electrical grid equipment, data center power and energy producers like GE Vernova and Eaton.

$IFAST(AIY.SG)

Context: iFAST Corporation has maintained steady fundamental momentum, driven by ongoing growth in its Assets Under Administration approx. S$36 billions (as of 30 Jun 2026) and expanding digital banking operations across Asia.

My trade: After scaling a new high of 10.54, iFAST is in a consolidation phase for the past one year. I opened a long position at 8.73 I chose to invest in iFAST due to its strong market position in digital wealth management and strong revenue from long-term recurring platform fee.

Takeaway: Going forward, I will continue to invest and scale into my entries when an opportunity arises due to short-term price swings and market volatility.

$iShares Semiconductor ETF(SOXX.US)

Context: Semiconductor stocks have experienced alot of volatility recently due to concerns on AI capex spending, causing SOXX to pull back towards level as low as 464

My trade: I decided to start a position during the recent pullback. I prefer holding SOXX over individual chip stocks because it gives broad exposure and diversification to semiconductor leaders like Nvidia, Broadcom, and AMD while reducing single stock concentration risk.

Takeaway: For volatile stocks or ETF, I will scale into my entry using smaller DCA tranches to handle short-term price swings and get better entries.

iFAST Corporation (SGX: AIY) continues to show strong undamental strength, driven by sustained growth in assets under administration and expanding digital banking margins. The wealth management platform benefits from scalable recurring fee revenues. While premium valuation multiples require disciplined risk management, solid earnings momentum keeps it a key fintech play in my portfolio. Glad to hold this stock. $IFAST(AIY.SG)

My Longbridge portfolio reflects a -15.19% unrealized loss on the BMNU 2X Long ETF, with a cost basis of $10.40. Lesson learnt is using a leveraged daily target ETF on volatile crypto proxies like BMNR demands extreme caution and patience. Given the recent drawdown and compounding risks, maintaining strict position sizing is essential.

$BMNR 2X Long ETF(BMNU.US)

My current KWEB position shows a -5.27% unrealized loss (today's loss alone is 3.12%), with the market at $26.626 versus a $28.110 cost basis. Chinese internet equities remain highly volatile amid shifting economic headwinds. As part of my risk management, I am avoiding the urge to prematurely average down, keeping my allocation strictly capped until a definitive technical reversal signals a turnaround. $Krne Csi China Internet(KWEB.US)

Nvidia is one stock that has seen mixed momentum in 2026, and currently trading around $211. Despite record FY2026 revenus and dominance in AI infrastructure, the stock has underperformed broader semiconductor indices year-to-date which is likely due to high valuation expectations and emerging custom chip competition. However, I continue to believe in the analysts views to maintain strong buy ratings, citing a compelling forward P/E ratio and ongoing robust data center demand.
