Then your actions determine your life. That is to say, the way you think can define how you live. Keep grinding. Keep sharpening your mindset, prepare yourself for all challenges along the way. Stop questioning yourself when you're down. Try to put the blame on other people. Although it doesn't sound entirely politically correct. But it's a hack for having great weekends lol.

Recently, reports about cashing out by American business leaders have stirred the nerves of investors. It has reached its peak when the CEOs of $Tesla(TSLA.US$and $Microsoft(MSFT.US$ started selling their stock while their company's stock prices were hovering near new records.
$Microsoft(MSFT.US$ Chief Executive Satya Nadella sold about half of his shares in the company last week, reported by Wall Street Journal on Nov. 29.
The filing of Mr. Nadella’s transaction was made public on the Wednesday before the long Thanksgiving weekend. The transaction yielded more than $285 million for Mr. Nadella. This is the single-largest stock sale for Mr. Nadella, according to InsiderScore.
How did the market react?
Interestingly, MSFT has fallen 2% since LAST Wednesday, while $S&P 500 Index(.SPX.US$ has fallen 2.64% over the same period.
Ben Silverman, director of research at InsiderScore, said the sale is similar to Tesla CEO Elon Musk's recent stock sales. Mr. Musk took to Twitter on Nov. 7 pledging to sell 10% of his stockholdings. The Tesla CEO was taking advantage of gains in the company’s stock price, Mr. Silverman said.
$Tesla(TSLA.US$'s stock price has fallen by about 7%, and its market value has shrunk by nearly $100 billion from that point.
Does CEOs’ sell-off mean it’s time to sell?
Action speaks louder than words. Of course, the behavior of business leaders will affect investors' confidence in the company. At least, for better or worse, news usually makes stocks more volatile in the short term.
However, their actions are not always noteworthy.
For one thing, insiders may have their own reason each time they sell stock. As to Nadella, analysts said the move could be related to Washington state instituting a 7% tax for long-term capital gains beginning at the start of next year for anything exceeding $250,000 a year.
For another, insider trading shouldn't be the only source of information, because not every executive is correct each time. In the long run, the best option is to research in-depth.
News about the sale of stocks by executives is reported from time to time. To paint a clearer picture of their effects, let's check the performance of markets and those stocks:
1. The broad market has continuously set new highs since the pandemic.
2. Taking Amazon as an example, after the CEO sold shares, the stock price has still climbed higher.
The same story also applies to $Pfizer(PFE.US$, whose CEO sold stocks last November.
3. It's not all good news. $GameStop(GME.US$ CEO announced to sell stocks in April. Here is how the stock price performed since then.
The bottom line
1. The CEO's sell-off may help you predict the future volatility of stock prices in the short term.
2. There is no obvious correlation between long-term stock performance and CEO selling.
3. Insider trading should not be the only source of information. Before making wise investment decisions, we should rely on in-depth research to check the company’s financial statements, annual reports, and other public opinions.
As a rule, value investors generally prefer to invest in high-quality companies with fair prices. The question is, how to identify the value of a company?

What happened:
The U.S. stock markets plummet in the midday after Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said he expects policymakers in December to discuss accelerating the timetable for the tapering of monthly bond purchases.
Speaking before a Senate panel, he said tapering could wrap up "a few months sooner" than anticipated. That would open the door to interest rate hikes thereafter.
What's Fed tapering?
Buying assets-backed securities to stimulate economic recovery is one of tools used by the U.S. Federal Reserve to manage the health of economy.
Such asset buying, along with a low interest rate is called quantitative easing (QE). It's a way of pumping money into the economy.
When the Fed believes that they economy has recovered sufficiently, it will wind down asset purchases. This process is called tapering.
What's the effect?
Reduction usually heralds the end of quantitative easing financial policies. And it’s a signal of monetary tightening.
In other words, the interest rate will rise and we need bear higher costs such as company borrowing costs, mortgages, auto and housing loans.
Normally, the volatility of stock markets will increase as the tapering looms.
Knowing more about the Federal Reserve is also helpful for your trading.
