$Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bear 3x Shares(SOXS)$ If you give up your recent strength now because of this NVDA earnings report showing major debt from circular financing, plus NBIS's major debt convertible financing, I'm going to die laughing.
$Applied Optoelectronics(AAOI)$ The rest of the week is going to be all about NVDA, which reports after the close today. If NVDA disappoints, it will be taken as an AI slowdown and AI stocks will probably drop. If NVDA surprises to the upside, AI stocks could do very well the rest of the week. Either way, AAOI is growing revenue and the stock will follow. And it's still up 220% YTD.
$SK hynix(SKHY)$ Not worried about the vote. Note that this was not about wages, but about profit sharing bonuses. Rejection of a tentative labor deal is not unprecedented at SK Hynix. The union previously rejected initial management-union agreements in both 2023 and 2024. In both cases, management and labor resumed discussions and reached a revised deal without triggering a production stoppage or full-scale strike. The most likely scenario is a peaceful renegotiation, with an 80-85% probability. Both sides return to the bargaining table to adjust the cash-to-stock ratio for the performance bonus, such as increasing the cash allocation to 60-80%. A second tentative agreement is put to a vote and passes.
$Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bear 3x Shares(SOXS)$ High inflation can suddenly flip into deflation, not just disinflation. When consumers simply refuse to pay, everything rockets to the bottom. Gold, silver, real estate, stocks, crypto. All of it.
