# US stocks plummeted! TACO? Let's talk about the next step.

At 11 PM Beijing time on Friday, due to tariff escalation, the S&P 500 plunged instantly, closing down -2.71%, while the Hang Seng Index night futures also plummeted -5%, and Bitcoin closed down -6.56%.

Over the weekend, there was a lot of speculation about whether it would "taco," but it was all hype with no substance.  
It's simple—even the parties involved aren't sure if they'll "taco."~  
Instead of fortune-telling, it's better to plan your next trade carefully.

! Key Points: A Multi-Perspective Discussion on My Views & Plan:  
  
I only talk about the essentials—if you find it useful, like, share, and follow.  
  
1\. Core Views:  
(1) "Just business"  
(2) Diminishing marginal impact: It won’t see a deep 15% correction like on April 2 (Liberation Day), but a 3%-10% pullback is still possible.  
(3) Focus on three major events: APEC, the Fed’s rate decision, and Q3 earnings season.

2\. Technicals: S&P 500 Daily K  
Where to start "bottom-fishing" in batches?  
\- Level 1: 6500, a 3% pullback, upper edge of the purple box.  
\- Level 2: 6350, a 6% pullback, lower edge of the purple box.  
\- Level 3: 6150, a 9% pullback, upper edge of the yellow dashed box.

3\. News:  
(Omitted…) Temporarily mild, Bitcoin temporarily reclaimed 110k.  
  
4\. Fundamentals:  
(1) The decline helps digest the market’s "high valuation risk."  
(2) Q3 earnings season has begun, with Wall Street revising S&P 500 earnings growth from 11% in Q2 to 6%.  
(3) Next week, ASML and TSM’s earnings reports are particularly important—watch how ASML’s guidance weighs the negative impact of rare-earth controls.

5\. Sentiment: Fear & Greed Index at 29, Market Breadth at 36.  
  
6\. Stocks:  
· "Bottom-fishing" strategy: AI/Big Tech & unaffected by tariffs & reasonable valuation.  
· $Tesla(TSLA.US) (+118%): Reduced position.  
· $Hims & Hers Health(HIMS.US) (+205%): Slightly increased position on Friday night.  
· $BitMine Immersion Tech(BMNR.US) (+21%): Fully exited in batches last Tuesday, notes available to follow.  
· $Unitedhealth(UNH.US) (+59.12%): Targeting 400.  
· $Oscar Health(OSCR.US) (+156%): Fully exited in batches last Tuesday, bought back half on Friday night’s big drop.  
· $Amazon(AMZN.US) (-2.7%): Position opened last Tuesday, holding, support at 215.  
· $Innodata(INOD.US) (Doubled and exited, cost basis negative): 1% watch position.  
· $Berkshire Hathaway B(BRK.B.US) : Position allocation needs, holding patiently.
