$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ A week of major pullback. SPY target remains the same as last week — looking at 710–720. Speaking of which, here's something interesting: software ETF saw a massive bullish (expiration-day) call order last Friday. This week's 88 call $IGV 20260731 88.0 CALL$ opened 100,000 contracts — that's $20 million spent on weekly options. And it actually rose on Monday. So can we chase IGV? Naturally, no. Currently, semiconductors and software are seesawing — the reason is that sentiment has temporarily shifted toward the software sector, which has richer cash flows. Notably, IGV's top holding is Microsoft. There is broad consensus that this week's earnings wil

📊 Noteworthy Points Market Main Theme: Capex Concerns Have Not Yet Been Fully Priced In The AI narrative is still present, but the market has begun to question the monetization ability of massive capex, putting pressure on valuations. The widespread decline following last week's earnings reports from several tech giants suggests that the valuation-killing logic of "full expectations + capex concerns" has not yet run its course. Earnings from similar tech stocks this week (META, MSFT, AAPL, AMZN) are likely to remain under pressure, with the prevailing direction still leaning toward Sell Call. Watch Whether Post-Earnings Pullback Stocks Break Below Forecast Ranges Tesla, Google, and INTC have already dropped significantly after earnings (TSLA 380→313, GOOGL 352→320, INTC 105→92). If they fa

$SK hynix(SKHY)$ In the current range-bound market, U.S.-listed SK Hynix has a key weapon that the Hong Kong-listed 7709 $CSOP SK Hynix Daily (2x) Leveraged Product(07709)$ lacks: options! The Hong Kong ticker can only trade the underlying stock for price differences, while U.S.-listed SKHY allows you to Sell Puts during high volatility, turning range-bound movement directly into cash flow. Indeed, we've seen many large Sell Put orders over the past two days. Why is now particularly suitable for Selling Puts? SK Hynix reports earnings on 7/29, and pre-earnings IV has been pushed very high, making premiums especially rich. In addition, while the memory sector may not rally much in the short term, its long

$S&P 500(.SPX)$ closed -90 on the day. If SPX gives up 7400 and closes under tomorrow we can see another dip towards 7330-7340 leading into FOMC on Wednesday. I would treat the upside as a quicker day trade until we see 7500 again. $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ almost dropped back to the June lows near 686 again but held and closed near 692. As long as 686 holds the uptrend is still intact this summer. QQQ under 686 can drop another 20-25 pts. $Micron Technology(MU)$ will test 1250 again this year. We need to see if MU can continue to form a base above 900 into August. MU July 24 1020C is best as a lotto above 1000 Good luck

I haven't written an article in a long time, and choosing to pick up the pen today feels rather meaningful—Big Tech's valuations got collectively marked down on this day, because the nature of their business has changed, from asset-light to asset-heavy. Some may remember the HALO (heavy assets, low obsolescence) concept that Goldman Sachs championed in the first half of the year. As it turns out, HALO just means "hard to die"—it doesn't mean "won't fall." When Big Tech collectively goes HALO, the broad market falls, and when the market falls, all stocks get dragged down with it. But on Thursday, semiconductor stocks—especially memory chips—held up remarkably well, because memory is the party being paid: it absorbs the cash flow coming from the HALO names. So when other stocks get marked do

I. Fundamentals: Two Engines Determine Valuation The core focus of this earnings report is whether the two main threads — Server CPU and Foundry — can deliver a turning point. 1. Server CPU: The Core Engine for Earnings Growth Although declining PC sales pose a headwind, Intel is offsetting this with stronger CPU pricing power and AI demand. More critically, Agentic AI is expected to significantly boost server CPU demand, with the GPU/CPU ratio projected to drop from 2× to 1.1–1.4×. Leveraging the strong stickiness of x86 in the enterprise sector, Intel is well-positioned to become a key beneficiary of enterprise-grade Agentic AI. Server CPU revenue is projected to grow at a 28% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) through 2030. 2. Foundry Business: A Turning Point Has Emerged Front-end manu

$Charles Schwab(SCHW)$’s second-quarter report contained record revenue, record earnings and strong asset gathering. Nevertheless, the shares fell approximately 2.5% on July 21. The reaction suggests investors were expecting more than a backward-looking earnings beat. Schwab generated record quarterly revenue of $7.1 billion, up 21% year over year. GAAP earnings reached $1.54 per share, while adjusted earnings were $1.62, this is 42% above the second quarter of 2025. June core net new assets increased 47% to $62.7 billion. Schwab’s July 21 earnings release provides the figures. These results reflect the strength of $Charles Schwab(SCHW)$’s business model. It earns asset-management and administration fees,

$Capital One(COF)$’s second-quarter results offered an early indication of what the combined Capital One–Discover business may earn once acquisition-related distortions and integration expenses begin to settle. The company reported second-quarter net income of $3.0 billion, or $4.73 per diluted share. Excluding specified adjusting items, earnings were $5.81 per share. This compared with $2.2 billion, or $3.34 per share, in the first quarter. Capital One released the figures after trading closed on July 21. Capital One’s official earnings release and SEC-filed version provide the results. Purchase volume increased 26% year over year to approximately $249 billion, while average loans rose 29% to about $255 billion. These comparisons include the enlar

I. Fundamentals: Strong Deliveries Come at the Cost of Profit and Cash Flow Tesla's overall Q2 deliveries beat expectations, and the full-year delivery guidance was raised. However, gross margins and EPS are expected to come under pressure and trend lower, while capex has breached $25 billion and free cash flow has turned negative. The market's real focus is no longer on car sales, but rather on the execution of Robotaxi rollouts and the production ramp of Optimus. Whether Tesla can build a moat in physical AI is the true make-or-break factor for this valuation. Key Data: Deliveries (raised): 2026 raised from 1.57M → 1.67M units; 2027 from 1.82M → 1.86M units. Capex: 2026 expected at $26.8B, with FCF loss of approximately $11.4B, in line with company guidance. Robotaxi: Launched in Miami o

$Danaher(DHR)$’s July 21 selloff demonstrates an important market principle: when a company trades at a premium valuation, the composition and outlook of its earnings can matter more than whether it beats the current quarter’s consensus estimate. Danaher reported second-quarter revenue of $6.3 billion, up 5.5% year over year. Core revenue increased 3%, or 4.5% excluding respiratory-testing revenue. Adjusted earnings rose 8% to $1.94 per share, while operating cash flow reached $1.5 billion and adjusted free cash flow totalled $1.3 billion. Danaher’s official second-quarter release was published before the market opened on July 21. Those figures look healthy. Net earnings also rose 60% to $870 million, and both revenue and adjusted EPS exceeded expe

I. Fundamentals: Shine Fading Slightly, but the Giant Is Still Doubling Down Google's AI product Gemini has seen its reputation and rankings slip somewhat this year, but that hasn't dampened the market's long-term optimism toward the company: Buffett has placed a heavy bet on it and publicly voiced his support in a CNBC interview. Google is set to report earnings after Wednesday's close (7/22), and the results will carry significant weight for the broader market. Investors will be laser-focused on two main threads: capital expenditure and cloud revenue. However, one thing to keep in mind: expectations may already be fully priced in. Without a surprise, the post-earnings stock reaction is likely to be loud but shallow – though spillover effects could still ripple through the semiconductor s

$RSEE$ $QQQP$ $JULD$  By Lawrence G. McMillan It is once again time to consider that $VIX may have bottomed for the year. It is a common occurrence for $VIX to make its annual lows in July and then begin to rise in August. Sometimes that rise is stupendous, as it was two years ago. Most of the time the annual peak for $VIX is reached in October, which is when the market often sells into a strong bottom. We can compose a seasonal chart of $VIX. Chart 1 encompasses the years 1989 through 2025 (the most recent full year of trading). While there is $VIX data for earlier years, including 1987 and even 1988 distorts things too much.
