Recently, many people have asked me why I am still interested/or invested in $BABA, $TCEHY, $JD, $NIO and any Chinese stocks. Why not sell?
Here's why π
Firstly, I am a Chinese, and I think I inherently have an edge when looking at Chinese companies because of the Chinese language. I have been following the Chinese government for a while too.
Therefore, I am willing to take some educated bets.
Secondly, these companies are all great companies IMO. They have strong fundamentals, and if the biggest risks is the government cracking them down, I am happy to live with that. They are (somewhat) discounted too btw.
Thirdly, I am still young, and if this ultimately prove to be an investing mistake that I made, I can always learn from it and move on. Everyone is in a different life stage so please invest accordingly.
Fourthly, I am happy to live with the risks because I believe with appropriate positioning (according to your risks), the risk/reward that Chinese tech stocks are offering is great. For me, i put around 25-30% in China.
At the end of the day, invest according to your risk appetite and invest in things that makes you feel valuable and happy!
Everyone can made different investing choices, and many can do great at the same time.
Hope you all the best in your investing journey and God Bless!

I have tried learning with $COUR for the past month for coding, here are some thoughts on the experience.
By paying $59 USD per month for Coursera Plus, you get access to many different courses offered by famous universities around the world. Most courses are well design packed with a lot of content.
The course I took was Python for Everybody, which is a pretty interesting course. The content is great and the lecturer is very engaging.

Palantir build the digital infrastructure for data driven operations and decision making. $PLTR seeks to become the next industry default software. In this thread, I will go over the things that you need to know about $PLTR.
Let's get started!! ππ
Total Addressable Market
$PLTR in S1 estimates its total addressable market to be approximately 56 billion for commercial operations and 63 billion for government side, a total of 119 billion. Most businesses that use data are $PLTR's potential customers.
Problem
There has been more data than ever before. However, many organisations do not have an integrated data system to manage their data. Therefore, the data is there, but it cannot be effectively used.
Tencent $TCEHY is arguably the most dominant Chinese tech company that have ever existed.
This thread will go through the lessons that I have learned from reading book, the story of Tencent.
Letβs get started ππ
1. Extreme minimalistic
$TCEHY always strives for minimalistic for their app design. The logic is to make an app simple enough that people donβt need to think. WeChat is exactly that.
2. Customer experience
$TCEHY and Pony Ma, Tencentβs founder, have always hammered on customer experience. Pony suggests that product designer should use their product daily, go on to forum for reviews to improve their product.
