What brought John Lee’s alma mater to the brink of shutting down?

Hong Kong leader John Lee Ka-chiu’s alma mater was already struggling with major weaknesses that hurt enrolment, such as a small, remote campus and poor sanitation in the surrounding area, before the school was prevented from running a subsidised Primary One class.

An asymmetric bet that the general public still hasn't picked up on - Silver Junior mining stocks

Okay I get it, most folks stay clear of this sector for a reason. Mining companies and metals as a whole are perhaps one of the most volatile in the entire stock market, and what happened in late January scared a lot of generalists off. But you'll be kicking yourself in a few years if you didn't at least take a look at this one. I'm sitting here looking at some of the junior mining stocks specializing in silver that are either currently producing or going into production in the next 2 years: some examples being SLVRF (Silver One Resources), AGXPF (Silver X), SVRSF, (Silver Storm), Blackrock Silver (BKRRF), and so on. And the thing that stands out to me is despite the price of silver going on a parabolic move earlier in the year and still sitting almost 100% up from where it was 6 months ago despite the crash in January, so many of these silver junior miners have hardly budged lately in comparison. Despite an ongoing half-decade shortage of silver due to industrial demand (as well as elevated investor demand now), where these companies are so perfectly positioned to benefit, most juniors still haven't made their big move. If you want a clear idea of the potential asymmetry from where we stand right now, just look at SLV's price action over the last 2 years versus SILJ (Silver Junior Miners ETF). Keep in mind that mining companies, especially juniors, are supposed to be highly leveraged to the price of their respective metal. And yet, SLV has far, far outpaced it up to this point. When the mass shortage of silver continues to worsen to the point that it becomes an undeniable reality, and companies that need it are scrambling for it anywhere they can get it, these stocks are gonna blow through the roof. We are still in the early innings on this one, folks. submitted by /u/daddysgirl794 [link] [comments]

Why aren't Indian ETFs performing so badly relative to that nation's GDP growth?

The USA's S&P 500 has averaged 12.65% in the last 10 years, and the GDP has grown an annualized 2.5%. The Indian GDP has averaged about 6% year over year., but the ETFs that track their biggest and best companies from a broad range of industries has only averaged 8.2%. India's stock market should have about a 10% margin of performance better than their GDP like the USA, but instead, their stockmarkets are barely above their GDP for some reason. Their debt-to-GDP has been going down over the years, and moreover, their net exports will go up. Why is their markets not such a great investment? Also, what is the best way to invest in a broad array of Indian companies? submitted by /u/No-Silver826 [link] [comments]

Iran-US Oil 0DTE opening strategy with 83% win rate

tldr: Oil futures down premarket = upwards opening move for SPX, take gains by trading 0DTE options in the first 30 minutes. Okay so to preface, the strategy is non-traditional in the sense that most ORB strategies, reasonably so, are about observing the opening range and then waiting for the stock to break out of the range. Then depending on the direction of the move, most traders decide which way to trade. However with the Iran-US situation lately I have found some interesting patterns, in particular with the correlation between crude oil futures and SPX opening price. Basically what I have noticed is that if the price of oil futures are trending down prior to market open, then SPX will likely rally at least for a little bit during the first 30 minutes of market open. This is where we take action. 4 examples of the pattern I noticed. There's many more, but these are the cleanest ones that illustrate the idea the best. Left granular charts are OIL futures $CL leading up to session open , and right side is the opening price action of SPX 9:30 AM and onwards. The reason I think this has been the case is because with the current war, lower oil price likely means de-escalation. Cheaper oil also means more consumer spending and a more robust economy. So the opening tends to be hopeful and a relief rally occurs. Now of course I don't expect this to carry over infinitely but with the current situation I think this is at least a viable signal to observe. But I don't just blindly buy because oil is red. There are usually three more filters I check before entering. Any overnight news that may over turn this signal. Think last minute escalations, or fed rates etc. just keeping an eye out. Or de-escalation that would give me further confirmation. De-escalation /US winning good, opposite is likely bad. I look at the last 30 minutes of the previous day’s options flow on today's expiry options. (hopefully that makes sense, ill show an example in a bit) I also look at gamma walls to ensure we are not being pinned, lately spx been in negative gamma regime so this one is just more of health check for anomalies that might take sideways. DW if you dont get this , its basically just checking to see if price can move freely here or nah. A good example of this was literally the trade i made this morning: Overnight March 15th - March 16th, a major story broke out that Trump allowing Iranian tankers to pass through the strait. This is good news for oil prices dropping. Oil prices had already been steadily dropping overnight. https://preview.redd.it/gdxi5mdufqpg1.png?width=930&format=png&auto=webp&s=caa781db3b21d557b092ef5f2b39dba35d90d457 For the closing session on March 15th, the next-day expiry flow was: 94 bullish trades totalling $4.4M vs 57 bearish trades totalling $1.1M. That's a 4:1 ratio in dollar terms Raw large flow data from 3:30 March 15th (many more data points but here’s a sample) At yesterdays close SPX was sitting at 66
