AI memory is still the right sector, and Micron’s HBM demand plus tight supply matter more than a broad semiconductor selloff. Stay long and buy weakness in pieces—own it, don’t trade it.
The AI storage trade is still on, but after a 500% run SNDK is getting punished as investors reassess the buildout’s pace. Stay long, don’t chase, and buy weakness in pieces because AI demand still needs massive storage capacity—booyah.
SKHY’s 7.6% drop after a powerful run says momentum cracked at the highs, and a 9.5% position gain is worth protecting. I’d trim here and keep only a smaller stake until support proves real—don’t let a winner turn into dead money.
EV growth is real with Q2 revenue up 25.52%, but Optimus and robotaxi hype still carries more narrative than proven economics. Stay long, don’t chase—buy weakness in pieces and demand margin expansion before adding aggressively.
BROADCOM INC COM
$344.72 -$17.27 (-4.77%)
AVGO’s 4.77% drop improves the setup, but the real tell is whether AI networking and custom-silicon growth can offset customer concentration and heavy capex demands. I like this name on further weakness in pieces—the AI infrastructure trade is still on.
CEREBRAS SYSTEMS INC COM CL A
$181.21 -$10.72 (-5.59%)
Cathie Wood is buying the weakness, but a 5.59% drop says the market still wants proof that Cerebras can diversify customers and scale gross margins. Watch bookings and supply-chain execution; the AI-accelerator trade is on, but CBRS has to earn the premium.
CORNING INC COM
$143.60 -$22.80 (-13.70%)
Optical is still the trade, but a 13.7% air pocket says the Verizon deal’s margins and revenue timing must prove the hype. Watch backlog conversion and AI data-center demand; I like this name on stabilization, not during the free fall.
ALPHABET INC CAP STK CL A
$349.39 $10.89 (3.22%)
Alphabet’s 3.22% rebound says the regulatory scare is not breaking the AI-and-cloud setup, but legal exposure remains the headline risk to watch. I like this name on the watchlist, but don’t chase the bounce—wait for clarity on remedies and any hit to search economics.
IRIDIUM COMMUNICATIONS INC COM
$46.18 -$1.12 (-2.37%)
Satellite communications is a recurring-revenue story, but IRDM’s cash-flow appeal is already fighting a full earnings valuation after a powerful run. Watch subscriber growth, service margins, and capex discipline; today’s 2.37% dip does not reset the setup, so wait for a better entry.
LUMENTUM HLDGS INC COM
$835.03 -$92.00 (-9.92%)
LITE’s 9.9% drop after a 114% year-to-date surge resets the setup, but the optical trade is still on as AI data centers demand faster links. Watch U.S.-China regulatory risk and whether margins keep pace with capacity spending; I like this name only on disciplined weakness.
LAM RESEARCH CORP COM NEW
$273.49 -$24.73 (-8.29%)
Semiconductor equipment is getting crushed across the board, so LRCX’s 8% drop does not signal a company-specific breakdown. Watch memory and HBM capex demand; if spending stays firm, I like this name on the watchlist after the washout.
PALANTIR TECHNOLOGIES INC CL A
$173.31 $6.08 (3.64%)
PLTR’s 3.64% pop does not make a $173 stock undervalued; watch revenue growth, margins, and commercial customer expansion. I like the AI platform, but the valuation demands flawless execution—buy weakness, not excitement.
QUANTA SVCS INC COM
$622.02 -$28.56 (-4.39%)
PWR is still a prime grid-capex play, but watch backlog growth, labor costs, and margin conversion after today’s 4.39% drop. I like this name on the watchlist; the setup holds unless utility spending or project execution cracks.
QNITY ELECTRONICS INC COMMON STOCK
$117.23 -$9.17 (-7.25%)
Electronics materials are getting hit, and a 7.25% drop puts Q on the watchlist but does not make it an automatic buy. Watch the Goldman conference commentary for margin durability, customer concentration, and AI-driven demand tied to HBM and advanced packaging before buying weakness.
SILICON MOTION TECHNOLOGY CORP SPONSORED ADR
$236.81 -$47.67 (-16.76%)
SIMO’s 16.8% plunge resets the valuation, but the setup still rides the NAND cycle and demand for storage controllers rather than the cleanest AI infrastructure bottlenecks. Watch controller margins, customer concentration, and NAND pricing before chasing—if those hold, I like this name on stabilization, not during the free fall.
TAIWAN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACT SPONSORED ADS
$418.01 -$15.23 (-3.52%)
Semis are still the trade, and four straight sessions of foreign buying in Taiwan say institutional demand remains intact despite TSM’s 3.52% drop. Watch whether those inflows persist and broaden beyond panels into foundry leaders; if they do, I like TSM on weakness.
