Subject: Your Weekly Market Snapshot: 12th - 16th January 2026

Assalamu’alaikum & hey traders,

So how did the second week of the year go? Maybe you booked profits, maybe you picked up a few lessons. Both matter. Growth isn’t always green candles—it’s patience, discipline, and the trades you chose not to take.

Some of you came out strong — Alhamdulillah. Others felt the market push back and test your emotions early on. That’s normal. Trading was never about winning every position. It’s about showing up consistently, refining your process, and knowing when to pause instead of forcing trades just to feel “active.”

📊 Friday Market Wrap – Weekly Recap

Here’s what shaped the week 👇🏻

Minutes Chart:

📉 Bearish tone into the second week

Markets leaned softer as geopolitical and policy headlines dominated—questions around Fed independence, tariffs, and foreign policy stirred short-term reactions. Major indices ended slightly lower, but beneath the surface, the picture remains steady. Inflation continues to cool, energy prices are contained, growth is stable, and earnings strength is spreading beyond a small group of leaders.

Daily charts:

Consumer spending remains resilient, the labor market is finding balance, and upcoming tax refunds could add support. Leadership is also rotating toward cyclicals, smaller caps, and international names—signs of a maturing, not collapsing, market.

💬 Your Take

Is this just a pause… or the early stage of something bigger? Share your thoughts.

🌱 Gentle Reminder

Trading isn’t about being right all the time. It’s about protecting capital, managing emotions, and staying mentally grounded. Every week leaves a lesson—if you’re willing to notice it.

⚠️ Disclaimer

Not financial advice. Always do your own research or consult a licensed professional.

That’s it for this week. Rest well, step away from the charts, and reconnect with what truly matters. In shaa Allah, see you next Friday.

May your days be steady and your weekend filled with barakah. 🌙✨

Assalamu'alaikum and Peace out!

Cheers & Regards,

Syazwan Bakar
