$ALLW 📈 Ray Dalio's Bridgewater Associates Makes a Strong Entry into Technology! The renowned investment fund Bridgewater Associates announced significant changes to its portfolio in its Q2 2025 13F report, filed with the SEC on August 13, 2025. The 13F portfolio managed by the Ray Dalio-led fund rose significantly from approximately $21.55 billion to $24.79 billion compared to the previous quarter. The most significant strategic move this quarter was the complete exit from Chinese stocks. Positions in major Chinese technology companies such as Alibaba, Baidu, and PDD, valued at approximately $1.1 billion, were closed. This decision, despite Dalio's past interest in China, reflects the shift in the global macroeconomic landscape. Bridgewater directed the vacated positions to US technology and artificial intelligence leaders. In particular, it significantly increased its holdings in companies such as Nvidia ($NVDA), Alphabet ($GOOGL), Microsoft ($MSFT), Meta Platforms ($META), and Salesforce ($CRM). These moves underscore the fund's reliance on innovation-focused growth stocks and its emphasis on the artificial intelligence sector. The portfolio has also partially reduced positions in some major technology companies, such as Amazon, AMD ($AMD), PayPal ($PYPL), and Apple ($AAPL). The fund maintains its diversified investment strategy, maintaining broad market exposure through exchange-traded funds such as the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust ($SPY) and the iShares Core S&P 500 ETF ($IVV). Bridgewater's dynamic rebalancing strategy reiterates its commitment to a diversified approach to global markets, with the goal of adapting to varying market conditions and achieving absolute returns.

The issue that frightens investors in the US markets and is constantly being talked about by those who know the old hat: Shortness of Breath Because the majority of the stock market returns still come from a few giant companies. While the rally has broadened somewhat, a few stocks still dominate the market. The top 10 companies (Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Broadcom, Tesla, Berkshire Hathaway, and JPMorgan Chase) account for the following percentages: - 40% of the total value of the S&P 500 - 56% of the increase since the bottom on April 8 - 31% of the revenue growth over the last 12 months - 55% of the net profit growth over the last 12 months - 69% of the capital expenditure growth over the last 12 months What do these figures tell us? These companies (perhaps with the exception of Tesla) deserve high valuations because both their revenue and profitability are growing much faster than other companies. So, are these companies expensive? As you know, those who memorize this topic love to reference the .com bubble of 2000. But today's situation is very different. During the .com bubble, Cisco traded at 85x forward P/E, and Oracle at 90x. Today, Alphabet is at 20x, and Broadcom at 43x. Furthermore, most of the 2000 crash occurred in unprofitable, smaller technology companies. Admittedly, today's top 10 companies aren't particularly cheap either. But they're nowhere near the valuations they were during the .com crisis (with the exception of Tesla). Could these companies' valuations be adjusted? Of course. But comparisons to the 2000 bubble and fears of market recession aren't very meaningful.

$AAPL Apple and $NVDA Nvidia will be exempt from tariffs thanks to their US investments! 🇺🇸💰 Donald Trump announced that he will impose new tariffs of up to 100% on chips and semiconductors to encourage domestic production. However, he stated that companies that have invested heavily in the US, such as Apple and Nvidia, will not be affected by these tariffs. This development coincides with decisions by tech giants to increase their investments in the US. Apple's announcement of an additional $100 billion investment is one of the most concrete examples of this decision. #Trump #Apple #Nvidia #Tariff #Economy

Tech billionaire Jack Dorsey has officially launched Bitchat on the App Store. This app lets users send encrypted messages and even transfer Bitcoin transaction data via Bluetooth, without needing an internet connection or cell signal. Bitchat uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) mesh technology, where each device acts as a node. Messages and transaction data can “hop” from one device to another until they reach their destination—or even to a node with internet access to broadcast Bitcoin transactions to the network. The app doesn’t require an account, phone number, or central server. All communication is peer-to-peer (P2P) with end-to-end encryption. It also includes a panic mode to instantly wipe all local data. For Now… Bitchat’s Bitcoin feature is limited to sending transaction data, which still needs an internet connection at the final point to be recorded on the blockchain. Looking Ahead… With further development, this technology could become more independent, faster, and wider-reaching—paving the way for a fully decentralized offline transaction ecosystem in the future. Bitchat is now available on the App Store, while the Android version is still in development. What do you think? #changemakersnft #bitchat #bitchatmesh #appstore #apple
