The $XJO #ASX200 was 'oversold' and made two higher highs, rising off fresh lows. This is a positive technical sign, that bad news could be behind us.
But I am not that convinced about the ASX200's two-day move just yet. As it seems the market could still be vulnerable (remember we still need to erase those Fed cuts that everyone expected), so exercise caution if you are a short term investor or trader.

All good names. But since all are Market Cap Indexes you’ll have overlap and not a lot of variation in returns (same up same down).
Two considerations:
• Look at FEQT Vs XEQT - this weights stocks based on 4 factors so you may see slightly different return profile Vs MCap ETFs
• Since $ISHARES CORE S&P US TOTAL MKT INDEX TRUST UNITS(XUU.CA$ \ $ISHARES S&P/TSX 60 INDEX ETF UNIT(XIU.CA$ are redundant you good consider one lower risk ($XBAL $FBAL or similar) and one higher risk/return profile wit...

$Zoom Video Communications(ZM.US$ shares are dropping 3.5% to $203.94 as $Microsoft(MSFT.US$ unveiled a standalone version of Teams for small businesses.
Microsoft Team Essentials will cost $4 per user per month and get access to core features of Teams, without having to also subscribe to Office, The Verge notes.
In comparison, Zoom has a small business plan that costs $19.99 per month per license. Zoom Pro, which the company says is "great for small teams," costs $14.99 per month per license.
Small businesses previously had to pick a Microsoft 365 Business Basic plan, which cost $5 per month per user, or other platforms, such as Slack - owned by $Salesforce(CRM.US$, Google Workspace $Alphabet-A(GOOGL.US$, Workplace from $Meta Platforms(FB.US$ or others.
The standalone version of Microsoft Teams Essentials has a simpler chat interface and focuses on meetings and video calls, Jared Spataro, head of Microsoft 365, told the news outlet.
Microsoft Teams Essentials has 10GB of OneDrive storage, whereas Business Basic has 1TB worth of storage. Essentials also does not have the ability to record meetings, provide transcripts, translation, separate rooms or channels and other functions that the more expensive plan has.
Last month, Zoom's shares plunged after the company reported fiscal third-quarter results that disappointed Wall Street and acknowledged that it would face headwinds in 2022 as more employees return to offices around the globe.

$Grab Holdings(GRAB.US$ When it comes to food delivery, I wonder if any comparisons to China are entirely valid. So much of SEA's food tends to be home-cooked, often with gravies, which is a likely natural competitor to 'drier' foods preferred by Chinese customers, from fast food chains to their own cuisines.
Going forward, isn't increased fuel costs a major headwind for Grab?
