π Market Trend & Technical Setups
-
$SMH looks extended after a 84.7% 6-month run. Fresh longs need caution. Leadership from SMH still signals a healthy tape, but the chart likely needs a breather. $MU reports this week, so the close matters. 1
-
$QQQ remains technically constructive. Price is still above the 10/21ma, with all moving averages in bull order. Upside target is new highs; downside watch zones are the 10/21ma, then the 700 area, the 50ma, and the gap in the 682+ area. 2
-
$VRT is gaining distance from its moving averages. The 10/21ma bull cross keeps the setup in momentum mode. 3
-
$TE worked after a mid-$7s bottom call. The move is now +15% on the day and pushing toward $11, confirming the dip-buy thesis. 4
π€ AI Infrastructure & Semis
-
$WYFI remains one of the more interesting small-cap AI infrastructure names. The stock is up over 17% today and sits in the same broad trade as neocloud and AI data center plays. 5
-
$DELL launching the PowerEdge XE8812 on $NVDA Vera Rubin NVL144 reinforces the next AI infrastructure cycle. The key tell: racks scaling to 144 GPUs with liquid cooling. The AI/HPC buildout is already rotating toward Vera Rubin-based systems. 6
π¦ Macro & Rates
- The Fed setup remains hawkish. The FedWatch curve implies rates are expected to rise across monthly tabs, even if the official stance stays βdata dependent.β 7
π§ Trading Process
-
Timeframe alignment is non-negotiable. A weekly bullish setup should not be traded like a daily scalp. Building a thesis on the weekly, then letting daily noise shake the position out, is the wrong game. 8
-
Dip buys from last Thursday are working, with one swing position up 5% today and outperforming. Additional dips were bought intraday, but the broader tape still felt dull before buyers woke it up. 9
π Geopolitics
- Israelβs ability to disrupt the regional direction is capped. Lebanon is leverage, but not enough. When Saudi Arabia, the UAE, the U.S., China, Turkey, Iran, and the broader world are all pushing the same way, Israelβs available levers become limited. 10
