Assalamu’alaikum traders,

Alhamdulillah, Week 40 is officially in the books. 🤲🏻

Another week in the market, another opportunity to learn, grow, and remind ourselves that we don’t have to catch every move to become better traders.

📊 Friday Market Wrap – Week 40

Minutes Chart:

📈 U.S. Stocks Push to Record Highs!

The U.S. stock market’s four-year bull run continues to demonstrate resilience, supported by strong corporate earnings, AI-driven growth, and investor optimism despite persistent recession fears and elevated interest rates. On Friday, all three major indexes rebounded as technology and healthcare stocks advanced, helping the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow Jones finish higher for the week following recent volatility in AI-related stocks, rising Treasury yields, and elevated oil prices.

However, the market’s heavy reliance on a handful of mega-cap technology companies, concerns over AI valuations and financing, and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East remain key risks.

Daily charts:

While rising profits and a potentially gradual approach to monetary tightening could support further gains, the maturing bull market may face more frequent corrections. Investors will closely monitor upcoming corporate earnings, particularly from major banks and healthcare companies, for further clues about the market’s direction.

Weekly charts:

💭 But let’s put the charts aside for a moment.

How was your trading week?

Did you take profit? Face a loss? Or choose to sit out because the setup just wasn't there?

Whatever your experience, don't be too hard on yourself. Every week teaches us something, as long as we're willing to learn.

🌱 Stay grounded. Markets will always fluctuate, but discipline and consistency remain timeless.

Remember, our rizq comes from Allah, not the market. We do our part, make responsible decisions, and leave the outcome to Him.

⚠️ Not financial advice. Always do your own research.

Have a blessed weekend. Rest well, spend time with your loved ones, and return with a clearer mind.

May Allah place barakah in our rizq and guide us towards wiser decisions.

See you next Saturday, Inn shaa Allah. 🤲🏻

Cheers & Regards,

Syazwan Bakar
