NEW: The Long & Short of It | Inside the Changing Landscape of Asset Management In the latest episode of The Long and Short of It, Natalie Reed is joined by Megan Miller from Allspring Global Investments to discuss how the asset management landscape is shifting from traditional solutions-based approaches to outcome-based investing. Watch the full conversation:

For a long time, I thought AI investing was all about watching NVIDIA. But after diving deeper into the market, I realized AI is reshaping the entire value chain — not just one stock. From GPUs and HBM high-bandwidth memory, to chip manufacturing, cloud computing, data centers, power supply, and cooling infrastructure… one catalyst can trigger reactions across the whole chain. This shift completely changed how I approach U.S. stocks. I no longer just ask “which stock will moon?” Instead, I ask: “How can I participate more flexibly in this massive trend?” Recently, I discovered a super convenient one-stop solution on @MEXC — everything runs from one single USDT account, no need to switch platforms or open extra accounts. Here are the 4 ways I like: - US Stock Futures：Ideal for short-term volatility. Currently 0 trading fees during promo, long/short available, 7×24 trading, and good liquidity. Perfect for active traders. - RealStocks：For long-term holders — buy actual U.S. listed shares and collect real dividends through their partnered licensed broker. - Tokenized Stocks (Ondo × xStocks)：On-chain exposure for those who prefer crypto-native trading, also 7×24. - Pre-IPO：Early access to select pre-listing opportunities with USDT. What I like most is the flexibility — depending on market conditions and my own risk preference, I can quickly switch tools, all within the same USDT balance. No more friction. AI catalysts will keep coming: earnings, Fed moves, tech breakthroughs, etc. The key isn’t predicting everything perfectly, but having the right tools ready when opportunities appear. This is purely my personal observation and experience from using the platform. Not investment advice. U.S. stocks and related products involve risks. Always DYOR and trade cautiously. @MEXC @APCollectiveHub
