🤖After DeepSeek's release, Chinese tech stocks have surged, with #Alibaba leading the way, up over 50% in just one month🚀!

#McDonalds just dropped its latest #earnings —so, how did the golden arches hold up? 📉 Q4 Revenue: $6.39B (missed $6.45B est.) EPS: $2.80 (vs. $2.84 expected) US sales: -1.4% Stock: +2% premarket Despite the #revenue miss, #investors seem unfazed—are food safety improvements and new product launches enough to turn things around? 🍔🚀 #Investing #Stocks

#AMD Q4 2024 Breakdown: 💰 Revenue: $7.66B 📉 Net Income: $482M (6.3% margin) 📈 EPS: $0.29 ⚡ #Data Center Growth: 69% YoY to $3.86B (missed $4.14B est.) The shortfall spooked investors banking on AMD’s AI chips making bigger inroads. CEO Lisa Su remains bullish, touting $5B in AI GPU sales this year and projecting "tens of billions" ahead. But #WallStreet isn’t convinced—#Citi downgraded the stock, #JPMorgan slashed its target to $130, and #BofA raised concerns about AMD’s ability to compete with #NVIDIA.

📉 Apple’s iPhone struggles in China—can AI save the day? Apple’s newest earnings were a mixed bag: Revenue up 3.95%, but iPhone sales missed expectations and China sales fell 11.1%.

Tim Cook says a Chinese version arrives in April—could this be the turnaround Apple needs?

In 2023, the US had a shopping spree with its top pals: 🇲🇽Mexico at $475.6B, 🇨🇳China at $427.2B, and 🇨🇦Canada at $421.1B. To put it in perspective, the fourth trading partner—Germany—lagged far behind with just $159.7B. Recently, #Trump stepped in with sweeping #tariffs on these three amigos. But when the markets started doing acrobatics, the extra hits on Mexico and Canada were quickly put on pause. Stock markets cheered again! Meanwhile, China still faces an extra 10% tariff, keeping the US-China tariff war as unpredictable as a cat on a hot tin roof. But if history has taught us anything from the last time, Trump's tariff battles tend to spiral upward despite some brief retracements.

🚗#Tesla: Missed Targets? That’s okay! Obviously, 2024 wasn't Tesla's best—revenues, profits, and deliveries (you name it) all dipped!

In 2024, its share price has grown over 50% after Elon Musk backed Donal Trump’s legendary victory. What spurred Tesla’s fans, once again? Unsupervised FSD in Austin this June and mass production of Optimus robots by 2026—Elon’s dream of a trillion-dollar sci-fi empire.

In response, Europe is pivoting towards alternative energy sources, notably American and Norwegian #LNG, positioning the #UnitedStates as a key beneficiary in the reshaped global energy market.
