Proflex Market Update - Wk 07

Welcome to another weekly update from Proflex! We’ve had an eventful few weeks as markets digest the rapid-fire policy changes from the Trump administration, along with ongoing trade war escalations and fiscal shifts.

Trump is moving swiftly on tariffs, and cost-cutting measures are in full swing, with Elon Musk’s “DOGE” (Department of Government Efficiency) stepping in to streamline expenses.

Tech Earnings Recap – AI Trade Back in Focus

The last couple of weeks have given us critical insights into tech earnings, revealing how AI winners and losers are shaping up. With macro tailwinds gone, the market is now selectively rewarding companies with strong business models and clear paths to monetization.

📌 Key Takeaway: AI spending remains robust, and chip stocks are bouncing back, indicating a continued bullish cycle for AI infrastructure.

💬 Proflex WhatsApp Community: Our members had an in-depth discussion on AI trade in the context of hyperscaler and big tech earnings last week. If you missed it, watch the recording here.

Looking Ahead – Key Macro Data This Week

🔍 CPI Data Incoming – The market’s next major test comes from inflation numbers this week. While the Fed remains in a pause mode, the Trump administration has shifted focus to 10Y bond yields instead of short-term interest rates.

🔹 No Major Fed Shocks Expected – As discussed in our Investor Call, 2025 could be a year with fewer macro headwinds and more of a stock-pickers’ market.

🔹 Unemployment & Inflation in Focus – Investors are on edge, watching whether tariffs are pushing inflation back up or if cooling price trends are still intact.

Gold Surge – Proflex’s Bullish Thesis Playing Out

Gold has officially broken into new all-time highs, validating our bullish outlook on precious metals since early 2024. The rally has been relentless, fueled by global de-dollarization trends, rising geopolitical tensions, and central banks aggressively accumulating gold at a record pace.

Silver is also catching up, confirming our long-held view that it would outperform in the later stages of the metals bull run—a pattern seen in previous cycles. As we’ve told our subscribers over the past 12 months, this is a once-in-a-decade opportunity to invest in the world’s oldest inflation hedge.

While we are also big believers in Bitcoin’s long-term potential to replace gold, the short- to medium-term drivers for gold and silver remain incredibly strong. De-dollarization is pushing governments worldwide to seek alternative reserves, and physical gold vault accumulation is accelerating every day. We are positioned well to capitalize on this trend, and as global monetary shifts continue, gold’s role as a financial safe haven is stronger than ever. 🚀🔥 📢 Join the Discussion in Our Macro WhatsApp Group!​ ​ Proflex Subscribers – Staying Ahead of the Curve 📈 ✅ Jan 13th – A Major Turning Point: We alerted subscribers about a key market bottom, leading to strong recoveries in select stocks. ✅ AI Trade Meltdown (Late Jan) – A Buying Opportunity: Our call to buy the dip in AI stocks is already paying off, as leading chip stocks rebound. ✅ Separating Noise from Signal: In volatile markets, we help subscribers stay disciplined and focus on strategic long-term opportunities.
