Fast Facts

Market action: About half of all stocks finished lower, but 75%+ of the PRO Leader list closed red, many underperforming the indexes.

Volume: Quiet overall, though price action was far weaker in leaders — a sign of rotation/consolidation rather than broad distribution.

Breadth: Net highs continued on both Nasdaq & NYSE, confirming underlying market health.

Portfolio moves:

  • IBIT sold at the open (+14% / +17% gains), continued to break down — leadership lost.
  • ORCL exit triggered at breakeven.
  • SNOW pullback buy closed +2% above entry.

Risk Management: De-risking, stop raises, and removal of laggards has kept all active positions in profit despite Nasdaq closing at weekly lows.

Leaders: AI names (GEV, NBIS, LITE, GLW) closed firmly lower. HOOD bucked the trend, finishing green.

Perspective: Chop is frustrating, but consolidation after strong AI runs is normal. Weekly charts and risk discipline remain key.

Full Write-Up: Market Review

When looking at volume, most leading growth stocks had a quiet session. Unfortunately, that did not carry through to price action, with most leaders falling aggressively. Only about half of all stocks finished lower, but within our PRO Leader list more than 75% closed red, many declining far more than the market itself.

It’s not the action we wanted to see after yesterday, but after weeks of AI strength it is normal to see consolidation and base-building — which is what I believe we are witnessing. It’s nearly impossible to know at the start of a base that you’re in one, but the back-and-forth action eventually reveals itself.

Net highs continued on both exchanges, reminding us that broader market health remains intact versus just our narrower growth focus.

Position Review

Choppy action is always frustrating, but the combination of de-risking positions, raising stops to manage open risk, and removing laggards has helped limit the pain. Every position currently held still shows a profit despite the Nasdaq closing at its low of the week. Managing risk is our number one priority; profits in an uptrend will take care of themselves.

Of our 4 open positions, LITE reached its de-risk target while SNOW failed and broke lower on news of CFO Change. AMD, GEV, and HOOD remain active with no change to stops or targets.

LITE 

Today’s standout, rallying almost 8% and hitting its on-strength de-risk sell.

AMD 

Today’s standout, rallying almost 8% and hitting its on-strength de-risk sell.

STX

Today’s standout, rallying almost 8% and hitting its on-strength de-risk sell.
