Market Summary:
The major indices are all trading slightly higher, with investors digesting the past 24 hour's barrage of central bank announcements. The Dow scored another all-time high in early trading as both the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of England (BOE) left their benchmark interest rate unchanged, just like the Fed did yesterday, but European stocks closed well below their intraday highs as the two central bank’s delivered a more hawkish message compared to the Fed. On a positive note, the Russell 2000 roared higher by another 3% after the opening bell, after gaining more than 3.5% yesterday, and the small-cap benchmark hit its highest level in 20 months, briefly recapturing the key 2,000 level.
Stock Pick Summary:
We enjoyed our portfolio explode higher last month and patiently watched the rise as other investors rushed in. We believe we are now ready to take the next leap.

NoSQL databases go above and beyond SQL (a language used to query relational databases) databases, allowing for better management of a more diverse range of big data sets. Large sets of structured and semi-structured data (data that’s not neatly organized in tables) are likely to be more commonplace in the age of AI.
It crushed analyst estimates and its guidance in the third quarter, growing revenue by 30% and more than tripling adjusted earnings per share. It bumped its full year revenue outlook even though growth might slow down in Q4. The company continued to win new customers at a healthy rate, as well as additional workloads from existing customers. AI-related features and capabilities added to Atlas, its managed cloud database platform, should be appealing to developers.
While the stock trades at a premium, we are enthusiastic about the company's position in the fast-growing NoSQL database market and AI related growth opportunities!

Allocation Guidelines:
We don't recommend over investing in any stock. Consider starting with a small amount, say 2-3% of your portfolio's overall value, and add a little at a time.
You could invest as low as $200-$500 on a pick, and even buy just 1 or 2 shares, if you are new to investing, low on cash or just prefer going slow.
For best results, have an intention to hold your position for at least 2 - 3 years in general. However, you can always lock profits sooner if you prefer as every investor has a unique portfolio and different goals.
Consider investing in our multiple stock picks (the more the better).
