Semiconductors Surge On Huge Down Day

The Semiconductor stocks were trying to lead to the upside in Tuesday's big down day. That's a short term bullish sign. Six semi stocks were in the top 22 from the S&P 500. 

Considering how low in the hole they were to start the day, that is a big improvement. 

Looking at NVDA, it was down 55% off the highs, but came back and at the time of publishing was above yesterdays close. That's a pretty big rebound.

These big name stocks are trying to bottom. Facebook and Amazon both got back into positive territory after steep drops on the open. So this wild environment shows some buyers are stepping in here in the beaten down tech sector. Just a heads up suggesting things could be turning.


I think the video is much watch every week, but if you like these setups please watch the video. I caution that extreme moves come both ways when the charts are setup with this much tension. 

Here is this week's broad market review video. 

 


This video covers off some of the recent price action including Gold and a return to some of the growth sectors.
