Taychikeng

Taychikeng uses '90s GenZ Uncle' as a playful self-description — he's a millennial born in the 90s who grew up alongside Gen Z but jokes that he's already an 'uncle,' a common Southeast Asian term for an older, wiser man. It's a self-deprecating way of framing himself as someone with genuine investing experience who still speaks in a relatable, digital-native voice.

Yes, Alibaba is one of the stocks Taychikeng covers most often, including detailed earnings breakdowns and analysis of whether BABA is approaching a turning point. He also covers Tencent and broader Chinese tech market trends, making Chinese equities a clear signature theme of his channel.

Taychikeng publicly reported a 17.3% USD CAGR on his tracked portfolio from December 2020 through December 2025, meaning his portfolio compounded at roughly that rate annually in US dollar terms over five years. He has tracked and shared this figure openly as part of his transparency-first investing approach.

'My Money. Your Lessons.' is Taychikeng's core channel motto — he invests his own real capital and documents what he actually learns, including losses, so his audience can benefit without repeating his costly mistakes. It positions him as a retail investor sharing a live journey rather than a financial educator dispensing theoretical advice.

Taychikeng began investing in 2016, though he started formally documenting his lessons and portfolio on YouTube around 2018. By the time he began tracking his portfolio performance in detail in late 2020, he already had several years of real market experience behind him.

Taychikeng has run sponsored content on YouTube for moomoo (富途), Webull, Tiger Brokers, Longbridge, and Seeking Alpha. All five are platforms widely used by retail investors in Singapore and Southeast Asia for trading US-listed and Asian stocks.

Based on his own published content, Taychikeng described 2026 as 'brutal' for his stock portfolio, reflecting the wider market turbulence many equity investors faced that year. Consistent with his channel's ethos, he documented this difficult period openly rather than going quiet during a drawdown.

Taychikeng's coverage extends beyond Chinese tech — he has also posted about Estee Lauder (ticker EL) alongside his Alibaba and Tencent content, suggesting a portfolio that spans US consumer stocks as well as Chinese equities. His broader approach covers any stock where he sees a lesson worth sharing from his own money.

Taychikeng is based in Singapore, which accounts for the largest share of his audience. Notably, a large portion of his viewership comes from the United States as well, likely drawn in by his focus on US-listed stocks including Chinese companies like Alibaba and Tencent.

Taychikeng's audience skews heavily male — roughly two-thirds of viewers — and leans older, with the largest age segment being 45 and above, followed by the 25–44 bracket. It's a notably mature demographic for a creator of his size, which makes sense given that his content targets people actively managing real investment portfolios rather than beginners just learning what a stock is.
