QQQ Drops 1%+ — Can Elevated Yields Break the Tech Bull?

The Nasdaq 100 ETF (QQQ) closed down 1.07% Monday, with the S&P 500 and Dow Jones also retreating as elevated Treasury yields remained the primary headwind for growth stocks; investors shrugged off news of Trump easing Iran sanctions. Session rotation was pronounced — high-beta sectors led by semiconductors bore the brunt as funds locked in tech gains. With yields and the AI thesis in direct conflict, is this tech pullback a healthy rotation — or the first crack in a mid-cycle bull market?

Big Options Bets: Nasdaq 28,800 Calls Explode as Crude $62 Puts PileUp

Options on futures are option contracts whose underlying assets are futures contracts. Trading volume and open interest reveal how capital is positioned across different expiries and strike prices. They provide useful signals on market expectations, risk appetite and potential support or resistance zones, although they should not be interpreted as direct bullish or bearish signals. Today’s analysis covers changes in large options trades and open interest on November 3 relative to November 2. These are the latest available data in this report and provide a reference for assessing positioning and risk appetite. The latest futures options data show continued divergence across markets.

Macro Strategy Weekly: Midterms Could Spark a Rally? But Three Bigger Risks Remain

Weekly Report: Key Views Hello everyone, and welcome to another edition of our Macro Strategy Weekly. Each issue features market strategy insights from selected contributors with relevant professional expertise. We also track how their views perform each week. Here is a preview of this week’s key ideas: 1. Divided Government Could Restrict Policy Progress and Reduce Uncertainty Following the Republicans’ loss of their majorities in both chambers of Congress in the midterm elections, Trump will face greater constraints and more negotiation over policy during the following two years. This may reduce policy efficiency, although it could also limit the market impact of unexpected measures and create a more stable environment. 2.

Why I See an Opportunity for a Rebound in U.S. Stocks Despite Ongoing Risks？

English Version： After a sharp selloff, investors tend to fall into one of two camps: those who believe the worst is over and a rebound could come at any moment, and those who fear the decline is only just beginning. U.S. equities now sit squarely between those two views. Major indexes are approaching key technical levels, leadership in technology stocks is starting to weaken, and investors are looking for safe havens. But what happens next will depend on more than how far the market has fallen over the past few days. Two major catalysts will matter most: the U.S. midterm elections and Nvidia’s earnings. $1.5倍做空NVDA ETF-Tradr(NVDS)$ $英伟达(NVDA)$ $标普500(.SPX)$

Long Term Rates Fell This Week, Easing Discount Rate Pressure on Asset Valuations, While Fund Flows and Commodity Performance Remained Divergent.The 10 Year US Treasury Yield Declined to 4.99%, and the 10Y Minus 3M Spread Narrowed to 77 Basis Points as the Short End Remained Firm.

Meanwhile, Crude Oil and Copper Edged Higher, but Gold Continued to Weaken, Indicating That Lower Rates Have Yet to Produce a Broad Commodity Rally.

Futures Positioning Watch: US Index Shorts Retreat as Oil Bsulls Rush for the Exit

What Is CFTC Data, Why Does It Matter, and What Should Investors Watch? The Commitments of Traders (COT) report, published weekly by the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), is a key gauge of fund flows in global futures markets. Its main value lies in revealing who is driving prices. Market movements ultimately reflect competition among different types of capital, and CFTC data allow these participants to be analyzed separately. The analysis follows three main steps: Identify the dominant capital. For commodity futures such as WTI crude oil, gold and silver, the focus is on Managed Money net positions, which gauge the directional bias of speculative capital.

The October Curse Strikes US Stocks as Equities and Gold Show Signs of a Breakdown

I have repeatedly highlighted October as a key turning-point window for US equity indices. Whatever the news backdrop, a break below the key trend line should prompt us to consider reducing risk. US indices have yet to see a sharp acceleration in selling, but other markets, including mainland China's A-share market, have already fallen. It is hard to tell whether this reflects a synchronized move across markets or local developments. With most of the news unfavorable, however, temporarily reducing risk is a prudent choice. $China A50 Index - main 2610(CNmain)$ $Hang Seng Index - main 2610(HSImain)$ $Hang Seng Index - Oct 2026(HSI2610)$

Brace for a Sharp US Stock Correction! Nvidia Falls for a Third Week as Bearish Pressure Builds

Despite greater stability in the bond market last week, key market bellwethers such as Bitcoin and gold showed signs of downside breakdowns. US equities also reversed sharply from their highs on the weekly chart. With oil approaching its previous peak and a critical market window drawing closer, investors should remain alert to the risk of a major correction. Markets also faced pressure two weeks ago, although the weakness was not yet broad based. Conditions have since changed as Bitcoin and Ethereum failed to sustain their rallies, while gold extended its decline and broke below $4,000. Risk assets now face renewed pressure from a potential broad based selloff. $比特币(BTC.USD.HKCC)$

The Worst of the Selloff May Be Over: Straddle Profit Taken,Time to Sell Puts💹

English version： The first thing I did this week was not look for a new trade. I closed the straddle I had put on Nvidia last week. The table below summarizes the positions before I flattened the trade. The contrast was striking. The NVDA 227.5 call cost 4.39 and had fallen to 0.24, a loss of 94.53%. The put at the same strike and expiration cost 3.97 and had risen to 13.63, a gain of 243.61%. One leg was almost worthless, while the other had nearly tripled. Together they left the account with a profit of $2,530.50. That is the point of a straddle: you are betting on a large move, not on direction. Once the volatility has been realized, you should not overstay the trade. $纳斯达克(.IXIC)$

Weekly Futures Options Watch: Bulls Beware! Massive Deep OTMNasdaq Put Trade Emerges

Futures options are options on futures contracts. Trading volume and open interest reveal how capital is positioned across expiries and strike prices. They can help gauge market expectations, risk appetite, and potential support and resistance levels. However, they do not directly indicate a bullish or bearish view. Today, we examine the day-on-day changes in large futures options trades on October 14 versus October 13. These are the latest reported block trade flows and offer valuable market signals. The latest open interest distribution by strike shows no clear directional consensus on October 14. Crude oil positions remain defensive, while new flows are pricing tail risks in both directions.

Macro Strategy Weekly:Treasury Yields Above 5%,How to Position for a Potential Long-Bond Rebound?

Weekly Overview Treasuries are the market’s pricing anchor. With the 10-year Treasury yield above 5%, equities, gold, and crypto assets all need to be reassessed in light of high-rate pressure. The Treasury Department’s earlier buybacks failed to reverse the trend in long-dated bonds. A peak in yields still needs confirmation. If oil remains range-bound, and with the two remaining rate hikes expected this year already priced in, the rise in yields may slow. But an escalation in U.S.–Iran tensions or more hawkish statements from the Fed could change that assessment. The conditions for a bond rebound are building. CTAs’ positioning in 10-year Treasuries is low, while speculative net positions in 10-year Treasuries have moved from deeply bearish to neutral, increasing the possibility of a bon

Big Options Bets: Nasdaq 30,900 Puts Build as Gold Bulls Defend $4,200—Which Side Are You On?📈📉

The Federal Reserve raised rates by 25 basis points in September, lifting the target range for the federal funds rate to 3.75%–4.00%. With inflation pressure prompting a shift in policy, rate expectations have again become a key driver of asset prices. Options positioning on September 25 showed a defensive tilt even as Nasdaq 100 futures rebounded: traders added near-the-money puts. Gold call positions expanded at higher strikes alongside downside protection, while new Bitcoin call positions appeared to reflect a short-term test of the upside. Against the backdrop of the rate hike, traders have not moved uniformly toward risk. The next question is whether prices can confirm the signals at key levels.

It All Comes Down to Rates: Are Hawkish Expectations Overpriced and Treasury Yields Near a Peak?

English version: If there is only one number worth watching closely in today's market, it is probably the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield. It is no longer just a KPI for bond traders; it has become a common pricing anchor for U.S. equities, gold, crude oil and even Bitcoin. With that anchor pushed to a historic high of 5.2%, and the market having priced in both of the remaining rate hikes this year, a more important question arises: How much higher can it go? $美国2年期国债收益率(US2Y.BOND)$ $美国10年期国债收益率(US10Y.BOND)$ $美元ETF-PowerShares DB(UUP)$ I.

HDD Stocks Plunge 10%: Are Seagate and WDC Losing Their Scarcity Premium?

HDD stocks took a sharp hit in the latest session. $Seagate Technology(STX)$ and $Western Digital(WDC)$ both fell about 10.2%, even as the broader tech market held up much better. This was not a broad AI hardware selloff. The pressure was concentrated in HDD names, and the trigger came from Toshiba. Toshiba reportedly plans to invest around ¥60 billion to expand its Philippine operations and roughly double HDD capacity for AI data centers by fiscal 2027 compared with 2025 levels. The company is also targeting a much larger share of the global HDD market over time. That immediately raised a key concern for investors: if the industry’s No. 3 player starts adding meaningful capacity, how long can Seagate and W

The latest Nasdaq rally has been driven by more than just another round of AI hype.Semiconductors, memory and mega-cap tech have all participated. AMD, Intel and Arm surged in the same session earlier this month, while names like Micron and SanDisk later joined the move. Investors are still betting that AI spending has further to run, and that more of that spending will eventually show up in revenue and earnings. That matters because the biggest concern around AI has never really been whether companies would spend. The concern was whether all that spending

Yields, AI Infrastructure, and the Tech Bull Market

Elevated Treasury yields are applying significant valuation pressure on tech stocks. We saw QQQ drops more than 1%. So in this article, we would like to share our comprehensive analysis of valuation pressure, balance sheet strength, and strategic ETF allocation to look at whether elevated yields would break the tech bull. 1. Introduction: The Yield-Valuation Tug-of-War The relationship between fixed-income markets and equity valuations has once again taken center stage. When benchmark sovereign yields climb, the gravitational pull on risk assets intensifies. Recently, a swift upward repricing in Treasury yields triggered immediate defensive selling across growth equities, pushing major benchmarks like the Nasdaq 100 tracking ETF ( $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$

Monday’s pullback in $QQQ is easy to explain: yields are rising, oil is adding to inflation pressure, and investors are taking profits in high-beta tech. But I think the more interesting question is not whether higher yields hurt technology — they obviously do. The real question is whether AI-driven earnings growth is strong enough to absorb the higher cost of capital. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed to around 5.23%, its highest level since 2007, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.9% on Monday. The move came as oil prices and geopolitical uncertainty revived inflation concerns and pushed expectations for further Fed tightening

[Predict & Win] Nonfarm Payrolls: Another Fed Hike Ahead?

The September U.S. nonfarm payrolls report will be a key focus for markets this Friday, as investors assess whether the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates again in October. The Fed increased rates by 25 basis points in September, bringing its target range to 3.75%–4.00%. The CME FedWatch tool indicates that the probability of another rate hike at the Federal Reserve's October policy meeting has risen to nearly 68%. Employment data could significantly influence expectations for the next policy decision. Meanwhile, higher oil prices amid tensions in the Middle East have added uncertainty to the inflation outlook. The report will be released on October 2 at 8:30 a.m. ET — 8:30 p.m. SGT / 10:30 p.m. AEST. Consensus expectations point to an increase of 100,000 in nonfarm payrolls, compar

The labor market still looks resilient, but I think hiring is gradually cooling rather than accelerating. With August payrolls at 162K and unemployment at 4.1%, a moderate slowdown in September would not surprise me. For markets, I think Treasury yields could move first if payrolls come in clearly above expectations. A strong jobs number could push investors to price in a higher chance of another Fed hike, lifting yields and supporting the dollar. That could create some pressure on growth stocks and gold, even though stronger employment is positive for the economy. For my own positioning, I would rather avoid chasing the initial move. I will watch the combination of payrolls, wage growth, unemployment and revisions before making any major decision. For me, the ideal outcome would be a gradual cooling in jobs and wages without a sharp deterioration in the economy. @TigerClub @Tiger_comments @TigerStars @TigerEvents","text":"I am leaning toward B: 100K–200K jobs.
