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?
I’m reading this from the beginning now myself, so I’m 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 — it’s used to check the state of inflation, and if it’s high, the economy is expected to worsen and stock prices tend to fall.
At the time, I didn’t really understand any of this; I was just picking up bits and pieces from YouTube videos.
Since this is just a diary, I’m writing casually without trying to sound fancy — please forgive me for that. (lol)
