Alright we are in the extreme fear category BUT no real panic yet. There's still lots of pressure on Semiconductor and AI related stocks. I think we see one more flush before FOMC next Wednesday before we start to carve out a bottom. The fact that $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ broke under last Friday's lows is not a good sign for tech. $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ under 700 we can see 693,685 next. $SPX to 7500 in play if it breaks under 7620 as well. Tread lightly and make sure you're not going all in BEFORE FOMC. That's how you get cooked. $VanEck Semiconductor ETF(SMH)$ can drop to 500 on the next leg lower, this is most likely where a

$TSLA Earnings: Why Iām Staying on the Sidelines ššÆ
You know my view on $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ . Hereās a quick recap ahead of earnings. We went long this summer around $310 and closed the position for a solid profit. So why am I not back in? Simple: The risk/reward isnāt attractive enough. š Daily and internal structure remain bearish. š§ $420 is heavy resistance. š“ Monthly BX Trender is still red. I need two things before taking a new position: a short-term discount or a confirmed bull cycle. Neither is in place right now. Hereās my game plan: šÆ If $TSLA pushes toward $420 after hours: Iāll watch for a rejection. If it breaks through, Iām fine missing the next leg up. š If it breaks down: $345 is the first level Iām watching. If that fails, I expect another move lower toward $300. Either way, Iām co
Markets are showing mixed signals, with key technical levels coming under pressure across several major names. While some stocks are attempting to rebound, bullish conviction remains weak, and the risk of further downside hasn't disappeared. 1. $iShares Russell 2000 ETF(IWM)$ : Bullish move, but conviction is missing. The critical 20DMA is being tested ā the same level that has dictated the trend for four weeks. Breakout or rinse and repeat? Todayās doji leans toward the latter. 2. $VanEck Semiconductor ETF(SMH)$ : Recent bounces off the lower Bollinger Band have failed quickly. With todayās price action lacking bullish conviction, a retest of the lows looks increasingly possible. 3.
š°š US ETF Watch: TOP 15 ETFs Idencify the Market, and What Comes Next?
Key Message: Semiconductor stress. Nasdaq hedging. Defensive positioning. The biggest takeaway from October 22ās ETF activity is that US market risk was being aggressively repriced, particularly in semiconductors and technology stocks. Leveraged bearish ETFs surged while bullish counterparts fell sharply, and long-duration Treasury ETF TLT gained. But hereās the key distinction: high trading volume does not automatically mean money is flowing into an ETF. To understand market sentiment, investors need to look at price changes, dollar turnover and actual fund flows together. š 3 Signals Worth Watching 1ļøā£ Semiconductors: Risk appetite takes a hit $Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares(SOXL)$ (3Ć Semiconductor Bull): ā20.47%
The Buffett Trade Is Back. But Everyone Is Reading It Wrong.
Tech sold off. Meanwhile: PG +5.58% KO +2.87% LLY +2.83% WMT +2.82% COST +1.99% BRK.B +1.32% At first glance, the message looks obvious: AI out. Defensives in. I think that interpretation is too simple. The market is not suddenly abandoning technology to buy toothpaste, Coke and supermarkets. It may be doing something much more important: changing the price it is willing to pay for uncertainty. And that could affect how I position for the rest of 2026. šµ WHAT ACTUALLY CHANGED? For much of the AI rally, investors rewarded companies for what their earnings could become. AI infrastructure spending accelerated. Revenue expectations exploded. Multiples expanded. Future cash flows were pulled forward into today's stock prices. That works beautifully while expectations keep rising. But once valua

Two PHP Flaws Send Cybersecurity Stocks Surging: AIās Most Non-Negotiable Budget May Not Be Compute
One of the strongest themes in U.S. software stocks this week came from cybersecurity. Following a U.S. government warning about critical PHP vulnerabilities, Palo Alto Networks climbed roughly 7%, Zscaler gained 7.8%, and CrowdStrike rose 5.2%. The Amplify Cybersecurity ETF advanced 3.2%, while First Trustās cybersecurity ETF gained 2.7%. (CNBC) The immediate catalyst: two vulnerabilities dubbed āphp2shell,ā tracked as CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619. PHP powers a large number of websites and web applications, including much of the WordPress and Drupal ecosystems. According to the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, or CISA, the flaws could allow unauthenticated attackers to execute code remotely and affect all PHP installations serving web requests.
