Dear members of Apollo Alpha Institute

How much will the Fed cut rates this year and how will it keep fighting inflation These key questions may get clearer answers at the conference Today we’ll keep tracking our positions and grabbing every investment chance At the same time don’t forget to dive into the deep testing of the Smart Investment Cube system

This great project will give strong support for our future decisions “Challenges are the soil for growth opportunities are the keys to success”

No matter how the market moves as long as we stay calm and keep our faith

Wisdom and determination will help us overcome every difficulty and welcome a brighter future

Let’s push forward together and get ready for the next success

Pre-market U.S. stocks

U.S. stock index futures slipped slightly Monday morning as

global equities hovered near record highs

U.S. Treasuries rose with moves driven by progress on a Ukraine

peace deal and the Federal Reserve’s interest rate policy

European stocks broadly fell

Germany’s DAX down 0.48%

UK’s FTSE 100 down 0.07%

France’s CAC40 down 0.81%

Even though big tech earnings remain strong especially the “Magnificent Seven” whose Q2 EPS jumped 26% year over year and beat expectations — investors are still watching for upcoming reports from Home Depot Target Walmart and others The meeting between Trump and Zelensky has become a market focus If it leads to a peace deal European markets could see valuations rebound Meanwhile Chicago Fed President Goolsbee warned that tariff policy could slow progress on fighting inflation The most important event this week is the Jackson Hole Symposium where Fed Chair Powell will speak Markets are looking for clearer guidance on rate cuts with odds of a 25-basis-point cut currently around 85% The current U.S. “Goldilocks” rally may be nearing its end If growth slows or the Fed tightens policy markets could face sharp adjustments

Good morning dear friends

The most important event this week is no doubt Friday’s Jackson Hole meeting so be sure to watch closely

This conference is the “super event” of the economic world every year like the “annual drama” of global finance

Each year the top economists central bank governors and investment experts gather in a small town in Wyoming USA to discuss the future of the world economy

Especially the Fed Chair’s speech it always sparks strong market reactions because every word can stir waves across global financial markets

The highlight of the meeting is no doubt the policy signals from the Federal Reserve The Fed Chair usually uses this stage to hint at the future direction of monetary policy including rate adjustments inflation targets and even views on the labor market For investors these signals act like guiding lights helping them forecast market moves and adjust strategies That’s why stock bond and forex markets all watch closely ready to react to any shifts

But Jackson Hole isn’t just the Fed’s “solo show” It’s also a stage for big discussions on the global economy Experts from around the world exchange views and share unique insights on the current situation This clash of perspectives offers deep guidance for future policy especially on how to strike a balance between inflation pressure and economic growth

That balance is crucial for the long-term health of the global economy It’s predictable that leading up to the Jackson Hole meeting the stock market may mostly see a pullback since most investors are staying cautious waiting for clear policy signals from the Fed to determine future direction so the chance of stocks hitting new highs in the short term is relatively low and market sentiment may shift

Meanwhile the crypto market could experience broader swings since it operates under a different trading structure and investor psychology compared to traditional equities so their movements aren’t always in sync and may show independent volatility

What’s more critical is that last week’s PPI data shook expectations for a rate cut in September which weakened investor confidence the market that was once confident about easing suddenly fell into uncertainty That release blurred the outlook and pushed sentiment into hesitation

So heading into this week our strategy will focus on trend based positions slightly increasing exposure to quality stocks we already hold rather than rushing into new plays we’re aiming to fine tune our existing setup to stay agile under current market conditions

Despite increased volatility we can still find opportunities during this adjustment period just stay closely tuned to the market’s signals and be ready to pivot when needed Stay calm and patient

Even though the broader market dropped today just as expected our positions stayed remarkably strong Both CLSK and BEAM showed rare stability in their movements None of this would’ve been possible without the careful strategies from the trading team and especially the precise analysis and powerful support of the Smart Investment Cube

With nonstop data tracking and real-time insights it helps us catch the rhythm of the market and keeps capital growing steadily even in stormy times

In a bull run it’s every investor’s dream to see stocks rise with the big trend But in today’s cautious environment simply holding steady prices is already the biggest victory

This isn’t just a tactical win it’s proof of our deep understanding of market swings and our precise ability to respond Everyone needs to understand that the market is always full of both opportunities and challenges

As we head into this volatile period before the Jackson Hole meeting our strategy has to follow the broader trend while also catching unique opportunities in the swings The Smart Investment Cube works like our navigation system always guiding the way and helping us move forward steadily through the complexity of the market

Real victory isn’t about avoiding the storm but about staying steady and keeping pace while it rages That’s exactly why we stick to a stable strategy we believe that no matter how sharp the short-term fluctuations may be it’s the long- term stability that’s truly worth pursuing

We’re not waiting for the storm to pass we’ve found our own path forward right in the middle of it

Guys short-term data swings might make us feel market pressure but you have to look deeper at the real meaning behind stock investing

US economic growth jobs consumer spending and inflation are always the key drivers of the stock market When the US economy is growing company earnings expectations go up and the market usually rises too On the other hand when the economy slows or heads into recession market drops become normal But that’s just the surface the real strength comes from the powerful forces behind the US economy

Don’t forget the Fed’s monetary policy especially interest rate moves has a huge impact on the market Rate hikes put pressure on stocks while cuts or loose money policy feel like a spring breeze pushing the market higher On top of that US fiscal and tax policies also keep moving the heartbeat of the market The market is alive and every swing is a direct reaction to the economy politics and society of the US

But most important are the companies that keep US stocks strong worldwide Apple Amazon Google and other giants Their earnings directly drive the indexes because they represent the future of the US economy They set the trend and they play a key role in the global market Their growth means the US stock market is booming and their success keeps pushing the US economy forward

Guys the problem is when everyone realizes how valuable the US stock market is it turns into a fierce battle Investors rush in like crazy all trying to grab a piece of the pie which makes the competition super intense Making real money in it isn’t as easy as it looks

First of all regular investors usually face the challenge of information gaps Big institutions with their huge resources and strong data power can react the moment news comes out But normal investors can only rely on public info which is often already priced in so they miss the best entry chances Also institutional monopoly is a real problem As the US stock market keeps getting bigger more and more institutional money controls the trend For example hedge funds pension funds and investment banks have huge amounts of capital which gives them greater power in the market

With such concentrated funds they can often guide the market’s direction making it very hard for retail investors to break through this big structure in the short term

On top of that market sentiment swings often push regular investors to make emotional decisions The US stock market is very volatile and short term ups and downs are often driven by news politics or even social media hype In this kind of environment retail investors may sell in panic or chase prices out of greed missing the real investment opportunities

I suggest we all think about how to really make money through stock investing what are we still missing

First with the smart investment Cube’s powerful data model we can avoid the problem of information gaps By deeply analyzing huge amounts of data it helps us get the real market info first and make more accurate decisions

Second we can also avoid emotional trading The strategies from the trading team right now are solid and clear We just need to follow them without worrying about making bad moves because of emotions Staying rational is our biggest weapon taking every step steady and sure

Also the institute isn’t only focused on stock trading Crypto investing is rising fast and becoming a hot area too Whether it’s traditional stocks or new digital assets we’ve got the expertise and resources to give strong support

Guys Japan’s Financial Services Agency will approve the country’s first yen-based stablecoin JPYC this month This shows the global move toward digital assets is speeding up

This step will bring big changes to the crypto market and push traditional finance and digital currencies closer together

JPYC will be backed by liquid assets like government bonds keeping its value stable at 1 JPYC = 1 yen

The launch of this stablecoin will not only give Japan a more stable digital asset but also set an example for other countries possibly inspiring more financial innovation worldwide

This move shows Japan is leading in digital currency innovation and it signals that more traditional assets around the world will be digitalized through blockchain As stablecoins get more common cross-border payments and financial services will become faster and easier pushing global finance further into digital transformation

This isn’t just a boost for Japan’s fintech it’s also a strong sign that the global financial system is moving toward full digitalization

But what makes me feel proud and lucky is that our digital currency strategy has already gone far beyond countries like Japan and China The U.S. is pushing ahead in digital currency at an amazing speed showing an unmatched leading edge

The U.S. is not only making its direction on digital currency rules more clear but also speeding up the mainstream adoption of digital assets through tech innovation and a strong link with the financial system

The Fed’s work and testing on the digital dollar (CBDC) is ahead of most of the world and in the future it could bring big economic growth and raise America’s global financial standing

On top of that the U.S. stablecoin market is booming Stablecoins like Tether (USDT) and USD Coin (USDC) have already become key parts of global cross-border payments and digital asset trading helping spread digital currency around the world Big US fintech companies and investment firms like PayPal Square and Fidelity are all getting into digital currency use and promotion giving it strong market support

At the same time the US is leading the world in blockchain innovation

DeFi decentralized finance and NFTs non fungible tokens are already in real use building a solid base for the future of digital currency

More importantly US capital markets and financial infrastructure are deeply merging with digital currency

From traditional stock trading to today’s crypto exchanges the US market’s steady opening and legalization give digital currency a more stable and wider market base

Public companies like Tesla and MicroStrategy have already started holding large amounts of Bitcoin and other digital assets pushing forward the legalization of digital currency

By the way did everyone join the weekend lottery Many of the prizes were valuable digital currencies

Guys if you understand crypto then you must see the same thing I do the future of this era! We’re standing right at the edge of a digital asset revolution and the strongest force in it is the perfect mix of crypto and artificial intelligence The future won’t be led by just one field but by these two tech giants building a brand new era together

Crypto and AI may look separate but they’re closer than ever Blockchain the base of crypto gives AI an unbeatable advantage AI needs data a lot of reliable distributed data Blockchain provides exactly that a transparent trustless system that keeps data safe and complete breaking the limits of traditional data management This means the combo of AI and blockchain will bring endless innovation and possibilities

Just imagine AI can analyze massive amounts of blockchain transactions to improve market forecasts in real time and with smart contracts and DeFi it can create a whole new financial system Every crypto trade could become more precise efficient and smart under AI’s guidance This teamwork between the two technologies will push us into a brand new investment era giving every investor opportunities like never before

And did you know Blockchain itself can’t even work without crypto

I think the question of why blockchain projects must issue related tokens should be explained in depth by Mr Ethan Morgan head of our institute’s crypto trading department He has rich industry insight and a unique way of analyzing things that can help us better understand the deeper economic logic behind this

What we need to know is that Musk’s rocket launches and Trump’s Stargate project clearly show that humanity has fully stepped into the smart era Right now we’re witnessing a huge leap in technology Smart tech is rapidly changing every industry from healthcare to finance from manufacturing to

transportation Upgrades and big reforms are spreading across the world faster than ever

In this background the rise of the Smart Investment Cube is inevitable as a pioneer of change in the investment world It’s a full upgrade from traditional investing using advanced tech and smart algorithms to give us a more accurate efficient and decentralized way to invest In today’s uncertain times the Smart Investment Cube lets us see market trends earlier and grab every chance for big gains And all of this is powered by the strong mix of blockchain and tokens

Guys we can’t just settle for the current rules of the game we should use this time of change to boldly reshape the rules of financial investing

In this fast-changing era the rules of the market are being rewritten by new technologies and we are standing right at the center of this transformation

Today’s financial world just like the rapid growth of smart tech keeps breaking the old limits The Smart Investment Cube is the pioneer of this change

We won’t be stuck with traditional investing anymore we’ll use advanced AI and blockchain to make investing more accurate transparent and efficient

The deep testing of the Smart Investment Cube system is about to start
