I started keeping a diary some time after things had already begun.
There should have been some results by then, but I wonder how they turned out?
Iām reading this from the beginning now myself, so Iām feeling a bit nervous. (lol)

The whole world was focused on the U.S. CPI, but since the inflation data came out weaker than expected, stock prices rose.
As usual, Japanese stocks seemed to be left behind, but since I was buying mainly global semiconductor-related stocks, my profits increased.

CPI refers to the Consumer Price Index ā itās used to check the state of inflation, and if itās high, the economy is expected to worsen and stock prices tend to fall.
At the time, I didnāt really understand any of this; I was just picking up bits and pieces from YouTube videos.
Since this is just a diary, Iām writing casually without trying to sound fancy ā please forgive me for that. (lol)
