Overall Market Observation

The current market is exhibiting a volatile pattern:

✅ The market shows broad-based declines and sector rotation. Strong themes from last Friday have pulled back, and capital is entering a phase of reallocation.

✅ The technology sector continues to see some support following its rebound from lows, leaning more towards consolidation rather than a trend reversal.

✅ Sectors such as memory chips, optical modules, AI data centers, and power utilities are showing divergence, with localized opportunities still present.

✅ NVIDIA's earnings report this week will be a key market focus, potentially influencing the short-term trend of the AI supply chain.

Core Sector Analysis

Memory Chip Representatives:

$Micron Technology (MU.US)$ MU, Micron Technology / SK Hynix / SNDK SanDisk

Recently pulled back to key support zones; investors with existing positions should watch for stabilization signals.

optical modules

Representatives: LITE, COHR, AAOI

$Lumentum (LITE.US)$ LITE shows relatively strong resilience; if you already have a position at cost basis, continue to monitor.

If COHR falls back to around $30, watch for opportunities to buy on support-driven rebounds.

$Applied Optoelectronics (AAOI.US)$ AAOI exhibits high volatility and is suitable only for investors with a higher risk appetite.

CPU Chips

Representatives: INTC, AMD

$Intel (INTC.US)$ Intel remains weak; watch for support near the $90 level.

$Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.US)$ AMD has greater elasticity; if the tech sector leads a rebound, it is expected to strengthen first.

Data Centers and Power

Examples: NBIS, BE. $NEBIUS (NBIS.US)$$Bloom Energy (BE.US)$

Some stocks recovered quickly after correction; the AI infrastructure sector remains worth watching.

Trading Strategy

Current Phase:

✅ Control position sizes and wait for support confirmation;

✅ Investors already holding core tech assets should avoid frequent trading due to short-term volatility;

✅ For those with heavy positions, it is not advisable to further increase risk exposure.

Short-term market uncertainty is high. Patiently wait for better opportunities after pullbacks to better capitalize on the next wave of the tech-driven market rally.
