#FedHoldsRatesSteady Federal Reserve Holds Rates Steady Amidst Inflation Concerns and Internal Divisions
In a widely anticipated yet highly contentious decision, the Federal Reserve voted on July 29 to maintain its benchmark interest rate unchanged at 3.5% to 3.75%. This marks the fifth consecutive meeting without a change to the federal funds rate, a pause that has been in place since December 2025. However, the decision was far from unanimous, exposing deep divisions within the central bank as it navigates persistent inflation, geopolitical turmoil, and an increasingly uncertain economic lan

#SamsungUp4.5PercentLeadsKOSPI
Samsung Electronics once again became one of the biggest stories in global financial markets after reporting one of the strongest quarterly performances in its history. Following the earnings announcement, Samsung shares advanced approximately 4.5%, helping lift South Korea's KOSPI Index and improving sentiment across the country's technology sector.
Because Samsung represents one of the largest companies listed on the KOSPI, movements in its share price often influence the broader direction of the market. The latest rebound reflected stronger investor confiden

Looks like a lot of people are going to play on ARC, but I didn’t participate—I just don’t have enough energy.
Also, why did everyone earlier hype that ARC—when it couldn’t be played—was a chain that could go head-to-head with Robinhood? Now that it’s playable, they say it’s doomed to never take off due to compliance and other issues. Is this left brain vs right brain fighting? 😂
From what I can see right now, among a few popular tools, it seems only Debot supports the ARC chain—if you want to play, go check it out yourself.

#MetaRevenueRecordHighButAICostsWeigh
Meta's $60.8B Quarter Proves One Thing: Revenue Is Easy. Profit Is Hard.
Let's cut through the noise.
Meta just posted a monster Q2. $60.8 billion in revenue, up 28% year-over-year. Ad impressions surged 14%. Average price per ad climbed 12%. The core business is firing on every cylinder.
And the market responded by torching the stock 10% after hours.
Why? Because buried beneath that glossy top-line number sits a truth that Wall Street can no longer ignore: Meta is spending so aggressively on AI that it's eating the company alive.
Here's the number that m

This $UAI opportunity is actually pretty clear. It had been grinding at low levels for a while, and many people probably weren’t very interested, but the market only really began to change when it broke out on the 4-hour chart.
Previously, the price had been stuck oscillating around 0.30 for a long time. Then a single high-volume bullish candle lifted it sharply. After that, several consecutive 4-hour K-lines stayed strong without any obvious pullback, suggesting strong order flow and capital follow-through.
This long position was entered around 0.415. The current price is around 0.458, and t

Chop, chop, chop—besides chop, it’s still chop. As for the recent price action, as soon as you think about breaking out, it immediately hits you with a come-back move!
For today, it’s still simple and straightforward: watch the area around 65,300 above. If it reaches there, look for downside. Watch the area around 61,500 below. If it reaches there, look for upside. Everything else is just a ranging zone, with no good opportunities. If you really want to be aggressive, then I’d rather short at 64,100 now than choose to go long!

BREAKING: The Dow Jones fell 2.2% to 51,594.

Meta Delivers Record Revenue While AI Spending Accelerates: Why Massive AI Investments Are Still the Right Strategy
Meta has once again proven why it remains one of the world's strongest technology companies.
The company delivered record financial results, demonstrating that its core business continues to generate enormous cash flow despite an aggressive wave of investment in artificial intelligence. While higher AI spending has placed pressure on profit margins in the short term, investors are increasingly viewing these investments as the foundation for
