Is the US Dollar Losing Its Strength?

The year started on a positive note for the euro as the European economy showed resilience amid global uncertainties. Increased defence and infrastructure spending in Germany, coupled with improving economic indicators across the Eurozone, provided strong support for the euro. This led to the EUR/USD pair experiencing its largest weekly gain since 2009. The exchange rate hovered around 1.08-1.09, marking a significant appreciation from the previous year’s close.

The year began with the British pound showing signs of recovery following a period of uncertainty in late 2024. Investor sentiment improved as the UK economy displayed resilience despite concerns over fiscal policy`. GBP/USD started the year around 1.26 and gradually gained momentum, buoyed by expectations of a more measured pace of monetary easing compared to other major economies.

EURUSD has been rallying since the beginning of 2025 just as GBPUSD. In March, both pairs rallied, gaining over 400pips each. Price could continue to rally as we might reach a new price level for both pairs this year. We might see EURUSD reach 1.1213 from the current price of 1.0897 and GBPUSD might reach 1.33775 from the current price at 1.29644.

Palantir Technologies Inc. price Bounces from Major Support Level

Palantir Technologies Inc. is a leading American software company specializing in data analytics and artificial intelligence solutions for both government and commercial sectors.

Palantir Technologies Inc. went public in September 2020 via a direct listing on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Since then, its stock has experienced significant fluctuations, largely driven by its government contracts, AI advancements, and investor sentiment around big data and analytics.

As of March 17, 2025, Palantir’s stock is trading at approximately $85.66 per share. The stock has experienced significant fluctuations recently, reaching an all-time high of $125.41 on February 19, 2025, before declining by about 30% in the following weeks. After price reached an all-time high on February 19, 2025, price fell to a support level at $71.67. Price has bounced from the support level.

Co-founder Stephen Andrew Cohen sold some of his holdings, raising investor concerns about insider confidence. He sold 301,847 shares at $102.14 per share on February 21, 2025 amounting to $30.8 million. The previous day’s transactions included multiple sales totalling $38.4 million. And on March 12, 2025, Cohen sold 1,250,000 shares at an average price of $82.75, totalling approximately $103.4 million.

Following the March 12 sale, Cohen’s direct ownership decreased to 592 shares, indicating he has sold nearly all his holdings in Palantir. Palantir’s collaboration with Databricks, backed by Nvidia, aims to enhance AI capabilities, potentially expanding its market share in various industries. We are projecting price could rally to $110 from the current price of $85.62 as the 4hr chart shows price being oversold.

Bitcoin Trying to Find Support

Following President Donald Trump’s announcement of a U.S. strategic cryptocurrency reserve that includes Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, Solana, and Cardano, Bitcoin’s price surged by 20% on Sunday. However, by Monday, it had declined nearly 9%, stabilizing around $86,000.

President Trump’s proposal to establish a national crypto reserve aims to position the U.S. as the “Crypto Capital of the World.” This initiative has faced criticism, particularly regarding the inclusion of smaller cryptocurrencies like XRP, Solana, and Cardano, which some argue dilutes Bitcoin’s prominence.

El Salvador’s President, Nayib Bukele, continues to advocate for Bitcoin adoption. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has expressed concerns over El Salvador’s Bitcoin usage, citing high volatility and low public trust. Despite these challenges, Bukele added 19 Bitcoin to the country’s holdings, underscoring his commitment to the cryptocurrency.

In the coming days, price might fall to $79, 000 from the current price at $82, 800. When price falls to $79,000, we could see price rise to $106,000 in the coming weeks.

Nvidia Continues To Rally After A Record Breaking Fall

Nvidia continues to make significant strides in the technology sector, particularly in artificial intelligence (AI) and graphics processing units (GPUs). In the third quarter of 2024, Nvidia reported a remarkable 109% increase in net income, reaching $19.3 billion, driven by surging demand for AI-related chips. Quarterly sales also saw a 94% year-over-year rise, totalling $35.1 billion. Despite these impressive figures, Nvidia’s shares experienced a slight decline of 2.3% in after-hours trading, as investors assessed the sustainability of such rapid growth.

However, in January 2025, Nvidia faced a significant market setback, with its stock experiencing a 17% drop on January 27, erasing nearly $600 billion from its market capitalization—the largest single-day loss by a U.S. company. This downturn was largely attributed to competitive pressures from emerging AI companies like DeepSeek. Since then, Nvidia’s stock has been on a recovery trajectory, with shares rising 0.4% to $139.40 as of February 18, 2025.

Recently, Nvidia unveiled its GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards, featuring the RTX 5070 priced at $549. This new series boasts performance comparable to the previous generation’s RTX 4090 but at a more accessible price point. The RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 became available on January 30, while the RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti are slated for release in February. These GPUs incorporate GDDR7 video memory and leverage Nvidia’s DLSS 4 technology to enhance gaming performance through AI-generated frames.

In the AI sector, Nvidia introduced the Blackwell architecture in March 2024, designed to cater to the growing demands of generative AI applications. The Blackwell-based B100 and B200 data-centre accelerators have received endorsements from major tech companies, including Google, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI, and Oracle. Despite initial design challenges, the Blackwell chips have seen robust demand, with reports indicating that the entire 2025 production is already sold out.

We are hopeful for a continued rally in price beyond the high to $153 as the current price is at $137.85.

Price of Gold Hits New High, As Price Hits $2900 For The First Time

As of February 13, 2025, the price of gold has experienced a significant surge, reaching record highs near $3,000 per ounce. This increase is driven by factors such as central bank purchases, economic uncertainties, and geopolitical tensions.

Analysts have varying projections for gold’s future trajectory. Goldman Sachs forecasts that gold will reach $3,000 per ounce by the end of 2025.

In the investment sphere, gold mining stocks have not fully mirrored the metal’s price surge, presenting potential opportunities for investors. While gold prices have risen by 11% in 2025 following a 27% increase in 2024, gold mining stocks, have underperformed until recently. Analysts suggest that as confidence grows in sustained high gold prices, investors may turn to gold mining stocks.

As of February 12, 2025, gold prices have experienced a slight decline from their recent record highs. Spot gold is currently trading at approximately $2,885.53 per ounce, down 0.4% from the previous day’s peak of $2,942.70. This decrease follows comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, who indicated that while the economy remains stable, the Fed is not in a hurry to cut interest rates but will consider doing so if inflation decreases or employment weakens. Higher interest rates can diminish gold’s appeal as an investment, as it is a non-yielding asset.

Despite this recent dip, gold has seen a significant surge over the past year, rising by 40% since early 2024 and reaching $2,900 an ounce. This increase is attributed to various factors, including heightened demand from central banks diversifying their reserves amid geopolitical tensions and uncertainties. Notably, central banks have been purchasing gold for 15 consecutive years, with demand escalating in recent years due to geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic factors. The price of Gold might continue to rise, which could eventually reach $3000 psychological level this year.

Apple Down By 15% from December 2024 High

Apple became the first company to reach a $1 trillion market cap in August 2018 and later crossed the $2 trillion mark in 2020. As of early 2025, it remains one of the most valuable companies in the world, often jockeying for the top spot with companies like Microsoft. Apple has split its stock several times throughout its history. The most recent was in August 2020 when it executed a 4-for-1 stock split.

Apple’s innovation and brand loyalty have been major factors in its long-term performance. Apple began paying a quarterly dividend in 2012. While the company has grown, it also provides regular dividends to its shareholders, making it attractive to long-term investors. A large percentage of Apple’s stock is owned by institutional investors, including mutual funds, pension funds, and hedge funds. This shows strong institutional confidence in Apple’s long-term prospects.

In December 2024, Apple reached an all-time high at $260 per share. The opening price of Apple in 2025 was $249. Price fell to a January low at $218 per share on the 21st of January 2025, which is approximately 15%. Since this low, price has jumped, with the current price at $242.48 as of the time of this writing. We expect price of Apple to hit new highs above the 2024 high.

Delta Stocks Might Reach New Highs

Delta is one of the largest airlines in the U.S. and globally and its stock represents an opportunity for investors interested in the aviation and travel industries. It operates an extensive domestic and international network of flights, providing services across North America, Europe, Asia, and other regions. In addition to passenger flights, Delta offers cargo services and has a loyalty program (SkyMiles) and joint ventures with other international carriers.

Historically, Delta’s stock has been quite volatile particularly due to external factors like oil prices, regulatory changes, or economic recessions, but has also shown substantial growth over the long term, particularly in times of strong economic recovery and increased demand for air travel. However, the airline sector is cyclical, and Delta’s performance can be impacted by broader macroeconomic events like recessions, geopolitical crises, or pandemics.

The opening price of Delta Stocks in 2025 was at $60.26, Price has increased to new highs in 2025 and also hit an all-time high. Price reached $69.95 today, as the bulls have pushed price highs. On the daily chart, there has been a gap up on January 10, 2025. Price is yet to retrace after the gap up; also, RSI on the weekly charts had previously shown Delta has been overbought, as we could see price reaching new highs in 2025.

Shopify Is Set To Rally

In 2024, Shopify’s stock appreciated by 36%, with a strong start in 2025, rising approximately 6% year-to-date. In Q3 2024, Shopify reported a 16% increase in earnings and a 26% rise in revenue, reaching $2.16 billion.

This move aims to secure steadier revenue streams and enhance profitability. The company is venturing into business-to-business e-commerce and offering point-of-sale solutions for physical retail stores, diversifying its revenue sources.

Shopify’s expansion into enterprise markets and integration of AI technologies are expected to drive growth. Price could fall to $104 in the coming days, which could be an indication for the bulls to be fully active, which might push price above $110.

NVIDIA Share Price Might Fall further

Nvidia Corporation is one of the largest developers of graphics processors and chipsets for personal computers and game consoles. The head office is in Santa Clara, California. NVIDIA Corporation does not have its own manufacturing facilities and therefore works according to the fabless principle.

Nvidia is the second most valuable company after Apple as of today, with a market cap at $3.497 trillion. In the last one year, Nvidia has gained with 167.96%. Before the close of market yesterday, Nvidia reached an all-time high of $153.13 but subsequently declined by 6.2%, closing at $140.14. This fluctuation followed CEO Jensen Huang’s keynote at CES 2025, where he introduced the GeForce RTX 50-series gaming chips. Despite these advancements, some investors were disappointed by the lack of immediate AI and robotics innovations, contributing to the stock’s decline.

Many analysts rate NVIDIA as a “Buy”, with ambitious price targets due to its innovation and growth trajectory. Price might fall to $133 in the coming weeks, which could be an indication of a buying level for Nvidia Investors. RSI on the four-hour chart shows price has been overbought, this could be an indication for a continued temporary fall in price.
