- DrScience: $MU is trading down 5% on no news other than today's general trade/tariff tension causing weakness in $XLK and $SMH. The stock is at the lower Bollinger band and just below the 21 EMA. If the stock can regain the 8 EMA above $122, then a $130 breakout could signal strength toward $140, my next target ahead of earnings in late September. I'm working a diagonal spread to get to the breakout point by mid-August. BUY +1 DIAGONAL MU 100 15 AUG 25/1 AUG 25 125/130 CALL @2.25 LMT

But if we're not in Bizarro-world, which is debatable, then they file at or after close today. If not, he and company will be sued into oblivion after assuring market everything is fine, updates will be timely filed with no changes and guiding for doubling revs in FY starting this summer. Tinkered with spreads but I'm sticking with it.

- traderbren: $SMH - back above the 20d and 50d
- Nepenthe: @joelsg1 $NVDA $SMH lost the 200d, momentarily at least. Last time it did that it rebounded. Don't know what that portends but I do remember Dan saying years ago that the Semi's have to do well (along with banks and tranports?) for the market to do well. Maybe that's changed, as does everything, but I'll be curious to see what happens in that sector next week. Cheers.
- joelsg1: @Nepenthe $NVDA $SMH We should hear from Jensen again at the UBS Global Tech Conf. 12/3 at 6:35 pst. When he speaks, stock rises.
- traderbren: $SMH - now below the 200d. Not good for the chips, hence $NVDA under the 50d too
- bigbartabs: @djgustoso $MSTR $MSTX ... years ago I did a correlation check on many of the 1x and their 3x ETFs. Some correlated well between 1x to 3x... but the majority had pretty big gaps in correlation. I seem to recall that $SMH to $SOXL correlated best ... and the energy ETFs were the worst... $XLE to $ERX and $XOP to $GUSH.
