The bullish momentum for SpaceX is still holding strong right now, even as trading volume cools down a bit. Price is sitting comfortably above key moving averages, with the upward trend still fully intact as it creeps closer to that upper Bollinger Band level around 169.03.

We haven't hit the overbought threshold yet on the RSI, so there's still a little room for the move to run, though it's definitely no longer the cheap entry it was earlier this month. That MACD golden cross is still cleanly in place, confirming the bullish direction, and trend strength readings are backing up that the current uptrend is the real deal, not a fake breakout.

The main thing to watch right now is the softening volume behind these recent gains. The past few up days have seen shrinking capital flow to push the price higher, which is the only weak spot in an otherwise solid bullish setup. It's a little reminder that a quick pullback to test that lower support level could easily happen before any next big push higher. Are you still holding long on this one, or waiting for that dip to add?

Memory stocks got a nice bounce post-Fed hike, but Citi's latest forecast makes that relief rally look tiny. The bank isn't just saying tight supply lasts a year or two — it's flagging the DRAM crunch could stretch to 2031, all driven by that relentless AI demand from continual learning systems.

Even with memory makers plowing tens of billions into new capacity, demand is set to blow past supply growth for years. Server DRAM usage alone is set to jump 51% YoY in 2027, making up nearly 2/3 of total global demand. This isn't your typical cyclical chip glut story.

Obviously, nothing's guaranteed: if AI demand cools faster than expected, the deficit narrows way sooner. But 81% of folks in our poll think memory names still have room to retest and beat their June highs. What's your play here on SK hynix, Micron, or the broader semiconductor ETFs?

Fed pulled off the expected 25bp hike to 3.75%-4.00% yesterday, but the dot plot was way more hawkish than most folks priced in. No 2027 cuts on the table now, and rates could stay elevated far longer than the market has gotten used to.

Historical data shows S&P usually ticks up ~13% in the 12 months after the first rate hike cycle, but this time isn’t a lock. We already saw the Dow dip 1.21%, while Nasdaq barely budged — markets are picking their spots super carefully right now.

Profit-heavy, solid cash flow plays are holding up way better than unprofitable names that need constant refi. Even the AI rally isn’t immune: you can’t just pile into any AI ticker now, you have to pick the ones that actually turn spending into real revenue and steady cash flow. Who’s positioned to hold up if rates keep squeezing?

Stocks are already shaky coming off 5 straight sessions of losses for the S&P 500, and the pressure isn’t just on equities right now. 10-year Treasury yields just hit 5%, crude oil blew past $100, and we’ve got both the Fed and BoJ decisions dropping this week that could swing things hard either way.

The market’s almost fully priced in a 25bp hike today, but everyone’s sweating the dot plot and Warsh’s press conference for clues on how much higher rates still have to go. Current surveys show most folks expect the S&P to dip slightly on a hike but pop a bit if he holds off — though that relief rally could fade super fast if yields keep grinding higher.

Three scenarios on the table here: a dovish surprise is only ~10% odds, the base 25bp move is ~65%, and a super-hawkish steeper path sits at ~25% that would push both the dollar and yields up to drag stocks lower. Keep an eye on energy names for oil upside, gold as a real-yield hedge, and don’t sleep on the yen moves from the BoJ later that can spill right into global equities. Who’s already positioned for the volatility?

Risk appetite softened across US equities on Sep 8, Users aren’t just piling into the biggest daily winners left and right — they’re locking in gains on big movers and aggressively buying the dips on their favorite names.

Intel jumped 9% on CPU price hike news, but the buy/sell ratio sat way low as traders took quick profits after the huge rally. Apple dropped a little on the day, but investors went hard buying the pullback ahead of its Sep 9 product event. AI names like NVIDIA and Micron also saw dip buying even on red days, while recent strong gainers AMD and SK hynix saw clear profit taking action.

The AI theme isn’t dead — it’s just getting way more selective. No more chasing every single AI stock higher, folks. Would you rather take profits into strength or buy the dip here?

We all saw the hype around Oracle blowing past 100% YoY OCI growth this quarter, but c'mon, there's way more to the actual trade here. The real under-the-radar driver is GPUaS margins, which still sit far below Oracle's long-term 30-40% target—even after Morgan Stanley just bumped their estimates up to 19%. Capex is another huge sticking point: projected FY27 spend is already outpacing total yearly revenue, so any upward revision there will immediately make balance sheets sweat.

Options are pricing in a massive move already too—ORCL is trading above the $159 gamma flip level, with elevated IV at nearly 68%. Straight calls or puts are basically throwing money at the IV crush risk right now. Poll data even shows 7 in 10 traders are prioritizing OCI growth, but almost the same number are locked in on GPUaS margin performance too. Who's betting the earnings print beats all the hidden expectations?

Ciena just put up a massive quarter: 37% year-over-year revenue jump, 82% surge in cloud provider revenue, and AI networking segments all growing over 55% — even 800ZR shipments more than doubled sequentially. But the stock still plunged hard, dragging the whole optical networking sector down with it.

The real issue isn't fading demand — it's inflated expectations. The market has priced these optical stocks for perfect, blowout execution, so a "strong" quarter that just meets healthy guidance isn't enough anymore. Ciena still has a book-to-ratio way above 1, Nokia's optical business is up 20% with AI & cloud sales spiking 105%, and both are saying supply constraints are the only thing holding back even more revenue. That doesn't look like a cycle peak at all.

The whole sector got overextended on hype, and now investors are bailing whenever a company can't clear the impossibly high bar for absolute outperformance every single quarter. Demand is still red hot, order backlogs are swelling past $10 billion, and the AI scale-across trend is only just starting to roll out. The crash isn't about the fundamentals breaking — it's about the market realizing you can't get endless upside surprises every 3 months.

Had an average cost above $1, watched $OBAI fall to around $0.33, and kept telling myself the bounce was coming. It did not. Finally closed the position after being down roughly 72%.

No comeback story, no diamond hands. Just expensive tuition for confusing conviction with refusing to admit a bad trade.

How long has everyone held a position after the thesis was already dead?

The expected 2028 Bitcoin halving is still a long way off, but the bullish headlines got to me. Started thinking the next cycle was already being priced in and jumped into $BTCT without really slowing down to look at what I was buying.

Then $BTCT rolled over and dropped another 5% after hours. The long-term Bitcoin thesis might still work, but that does not make every Bitcoin-related ticker a good trade. This was basically FOMO dressed up as a four-year thesis.

Anyone else already positioning for 2028, or is that way too early?

Woke up to see Micron getting absolutely wrecked, down almost 7% mid-session after it was flirting with breaking the $1000 mark earlier. That entry point hit way earlier than anyone expected when the price kept cascading down the chart, the red candles just kept piling up nonstop. Who else got caught off guard by this sharp pullback after all the recent bullish hype around this stock? Wild how fast the sentiment flipped in a single trading session.

Wetour Robotics just doubled in a single session, hit the circuit breaker, and the entire market cap is still only $41 million. Turnover ratio is 872% which means the float turned over almost nine times today.

The news hook is a post-split float play. When you cut the float that small, it doesn't take much buying to send the price vertical. Problem is the order book right now is stacked with sell orders at 50.81 and volume has gone to near zero after the halt.

This is textbook low-float squeeze behavior. Could run more if buyers come back after the circuit breaker lifts. Could also give back the entire move in an hour if they don't.

P/E is Loss. No earnings. Pure momentum and narrative.

Anyone playing this or watching from a safe distance?

Stock ripped today, vertical candle in after-hours, currently sitting at $149 with a $1.96T market cap. The move looks clean on the chart until you notice the lock-up expiry date sitting right there: August 20, two days away.

Lock-up expiration means insiders and early holders can start selling. Doesn't mean they will, but the overhang is real. The timing of this spike right before expiry is either very bullish or a classic setup to dump into retail enthusiasm.

P/E is listed as Loss, so this is purely a growth/narrative trade. No earnings floor to lean on.

Holding through lock-up expiry or trimming into this strength?

Look at that green move spiking hard in the early session, ripping straight from 38 to over 41 in the blink. Those green B entry marks caught the dip perfectly before the squeeze hit. Can't believe this AI hardware play is running that hot this morning, did no one expect this pop? Spotted this chaos scrolling through moomoo real-time feed, total wild move no one saw coming at open.

Locked in a solid $4,244 realized profit off that SPY call earlier this week, no position left on the table now. That momentum after the inflation data drop was absolutely wild, the timing lined up way better than anyone could’ve guessed. Who else caught this run on SPY and walked away with a fat gain before the weekend? Pulled the P/L screenshot from moomoo, that tennis mascot graphic hits different when you’re booking green like this.

Got that perfect dip entry when AMD dipped hard out of nowhere, rode the bounce all the way back up to sell right at the peak. Couldn't have timed it any better, even caught that little late post-market move on the moomoo app. The intraday volatility was chef's kiss today, didn't even have to hold through the rest of the session to lock in solid returns. Who else grabbed that quick swing on AMD today? No way that sharp dip was just noise, the bounce felt way too predictable once the price settled.

Price hung in there even after dipping sub-$31 earlier in the session, green close right before that post-market earnings drop later today. Volume went absolutely nuts in the final minutes of trading, no one's sitting on their hands heading into this print. Caught this setup tracking on moomoo all day, super curious if the rally through late selling is signaling something huge after hours. Anyone else got a position on ahead of the release?

Genuinely the whole plan. Buy SCHX, watch the moving averages stack up nicely, feel smart, repeat.

Up 44% from the lows. Did I predict that? Absolutely not. Did I panic sell during the dip? Yes. Did I buy back higher? Also yes.

AUM is $74.6B so at least a lot of other people are also pretending alongside me. There's comfort in that.

MA5, MA10, MA20, MA30 all pointing up and fanning out beautifully. Chart looks like a staircase to the moon. I have no idea when it stops but I'm going to keep holding until someone smarter than me tells me otherwise.

Anyway. What's everyone else's "I don't actually have a strategy" strategy?

Pretty solid green day here, NVIDIA keeps chugging along nicely past that 219 mark, even the broad market ETF SPUS is ticking up slow and steady. No weird risky moves this week and the positions are all sitting comfortably in green. Anyone else riding these through the summer rally? Got the position snapshots straight from the moomoo app just now.
