Good morning,

The long-overdue tech wreck is here, with XLK down five of the past six days and already in an 11% drawdown. There haven’t been many places to hide with semis, software, and hardware (read: Apple) all down sharply over the past week.

However, there’s one sub-group that I pointed to as a potential opportunity on Monday, and today I’ll highlight two of my favorite single-stock setups.

We’ll also review:

  • Semiconductors with more to go to the downside

  • Software winners and losers

  • The dash for trash

  • Quiet improvement in private equity stocks

  • Energy

  • Hot List updates

  • and more!


Tech wreck: Semis

Marvel is begging to fill this gap

Already in a 22% drawdown, that would put it down 30%.

AMD left a gap back near $360

Which is where both momentum measures peaked and began rolling over. I think it gets there.

Western Digital is still 98% above its 200-DMA

Is it really that crazy to think it tests this basic metric after a 2000% gain in 14 months? Right now it would line up nicely with a zone of support near $300.


Tech wreck: Software hasn’t been much better
