NVDA 1D: Pause before the next chipOn the daily chart NVIDIA has shifted from a strong impulsive advance into a consolidation phase. After printing new local highs, price formed a contracting structure, broke higher, and returned for a retest of the breakout area. Selling pressure remains limited, with no follow-through to the downside, suggesting a pause within trend rather than a reversal.
Structurally, price action reflects consolidation inside a broader uptrend. The 185–190 area remains the key holding zone, where price stabilized after the retest and continues to trade above the 100-day moving average. Higher lows are preserved, keeping the higher timeframe structure intact. MACD holds above the zero line, while ADX continues to decline, confirming compression rather than directional expansion.
The primary reaction level sits near 212, marking the upper boundary of the current consolidation. Acceptance above this level would allow for continuation toward the 230–232 area, aligning with the upper expansion of the range. A failure to hold the 185-190 zone would shift price into a wider neutral structure without confirmation of trend continuation.
Fundamentally, NVIDIA remains strong. Q3 2025 EPS came in at 1.30 USD, with Q4 2025 EPS estimated at 1.52 USD ahead of the February 26, 2026 earnings release. Revenue reached 57.01B USD in Q3, with expectations of 65.56B USD for Q4. Cash flows remain robust, with operating cash flow at 83.16B USD and free cash flow at 77.32B USD. Compute and Networking continues to be the dominant revenue driver.
As long as structure holds, the market remains in digestion mode following the prior impulse.
Price action leads before fundamentals follow.

Can America Break China's Rare Earth Monopoly?USA Rare Earth (Nasdaq: USAR) stands at the center of America's most ambitious industrial gamble in decades. The company pursues a vertically integrated "mine-to-magnet" strategy designed to break China's stranglehold on rare earth elements, critical materials that power everything from electric vehicles to F-35 fighter jets. With China controlling 70% of global mining and over 90% of refining capacity, the United States faces a strategic vulnerability that threatens both its defense capabilities and its energy transition. Recent Chinese export restrictions on gallium and germanium have accelerated USA Rare Earth's timeline, with commercial production now targeted for late 2028, two years ahead of previous guidance.
The company's success hinges on extraordinary government backing and massive capital infusions. A $1.6 billion letter of intent from the Department of Commerce, combined with a $1.5 billion private investment, provides $3.1 billion in potential funding. The government will take a 10% equity stake, signaling an unprecedented public-private partnership in critical infrastructure. This funding supports the entire value chain: extraction at the Round Top deposit in Texas, chemical separation in Colorado, and advanced magnet manufacturing in Oklahoma. The Round Top deposit itself is geologically unique, a 1-billion-metric-ton laccolith containing 15 of 17 rare earth elements, processable through cost-effective heap leaching rather than traditional roasting.
Beyond minerals, the project represents a test of American industrial resilience. The Trump administration's "Project Vault" initiative establishes a $12 billion strategic mineral reserve modeled after the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. International alliances with Australia, Japan, and the United Kingdom create a network of "friend-shored" supply chains designed to counter Beijing's leverage. USA Rare Earth's acquisition of UK-based Less Common Metals provides critical refining expertise currently unavailable outside China. The company achieved a milestone in January 2026 by producing its first batch of sintered neodymium magnets at its Oklahoma facility, proving its technical capabilities.
The path forward remains treacherous. Critics point to timeline delays, insider selling, and the volatility inherent in pre-revenue mining ventures. Short sellers have claimed a potential 75% downside, questioning equipment age and promotional tactics. Yet the strategic imperative is undeniable: without domestic rare earth capacity, the United States cannot maintain technological superiority in defense or achieve energy independence. USA Rare Earth's 2030 goal of processing 8,000 tons of heavy rare earths and producing 10,000 tons of magnets annually would fundamentally reshape global supply chains. The billion-dollar race for magnet supremacy will determine whether America can reclaim industrial sovereignty or remain dependent on geopolitical rivals for the minerals of the future.

Notes on how I personally use my charts/NFA:
Each level L1-L3 and TP1-TP3 (Or S1-S3) has a deployment percentage. The idea is to flag these levels so I can buy 11% at L1 , 28% at L2 and if L3 deploy 61% of assigned dry powder. The same in reverse goes for TP. TP1: 61%, TP2:28% and TP3:11%. If chart pivots between TP's, in-between or in Between Sell levels these percentages are still respected. I like to use the trading range to accumulate by using this tactic.

Intel Corporation | INTC | Long at $44.26Entered Intel NASDAQ:INTC after-hours at $44.26. The US government is too heavily invested in this one to let it truely slide. The earnings / EPS projections show a likely major turnaround. Any dips are purely programmatic for entry (watch insiders and politicians . I may sound like a conspiracy theorist here, but a $8.9 billion investment from the US government is absolutely going to lead to major returns by 2028/2029. There is a major price gap a lot of people aren't seeing all the way back to the year 2000 between $71.38 and $73.44. That's my main target. And, like dot-com crash, it may go further until.... So, in the near-term, there could be weakness and a dip to retouch the historical average band ($30's - another entry). But my outlook is longer. And, given the need for chips and the government wanting a major return on their investment, I suspect this one is going to lead to a solid return.

Is NVIDIA’s AI Boom Hitting a Wall?NVIDIA is the engine behind the global AI boom. From data centers to gaming and high-performance computing, its chips power the most advanced technology on the planet. Over the last two years, NVDA became the market’s biggest winner. Now, it has suddenly slowed down, and investors are asking why.
The stock is down about 12 percent from its all-time high of 212 dollars and closed at 186.23 dollars on January 27, 2026. Even after the pullback, NVIDIA is valued at an eye-watering 4.53 trillion dollars and trades at a P/E ratio of 46. That valuation assumes near-perfect execution, and the market is no longer willing to blindly chase it. After one of the strongest rallies in tech history, NVDA has spent months moving sideways. On the chart, the price is trapped inside a symmetrical triangle, a classic sign of indecision. It is not breaking higher, and it is not breaking lower. Everyone is waiting for something to give.
The biggest reason for this pause is geopolitical, not technical. NVIDIA appeared to secure a massive win with reported orders for more than two million H200 chips from Chinese tech companies, potentially worth around 54 billion dollars. At roughly 27,000 dollars per chip, this deal could have pushed the stock into a new valuation zone. But reality hit fast. Chinese customs blocked H200 shipments just days after the U.S. approved exports under a 25 percent tariff. According to industry sources, the message from Beijing was severe enough to feel like a temporary ban. NVIDIA’s suppliers have already slowed production, and that massive opportunity could disappear almost overnight.
Even if China eventually allows the chips, the math is no longer attractive. A 25 percent tariff means NVIDIA would lose a large chunk of revenue to the U.S. government. Higher prices also make Chinese buyers less enthusiastic, especially as Beijing pushes companies toward domestic alternatives from players like Huawei. This situation risks accelerating China’s long-term shift away from U.S. technology, threatening a market worth tens of billions of dollars every year.
Despite these risks, Wall Street remains optimistic. Analysts still rate NVDA a Strong Buy, with an average price target near 259 dollars, implying roughly 36 percent upside. Some firms, including Evercore ISI, see far higher levels if execution stays flawless. Confidence was also reinforced after CEO Jensen Huang called AI the largest infrastructure buildout in human history and backed that view with a 2 billion dollar investment in CoreWeave to expand AI data centers.
The outlook is clear but tense. NVIDIA is not broken. It is dominant, expensive, and stuck between massive opportunity and serious geopolitical risk. The long consolidation suggests the next move could be powerful. Whether it breaks higher or resets lower will depend less on charts and more on politics, pricing, and how much perfection the market is still willing to pay for.
SUPER MICRO SEMI #SMCI Can bounce hard to $60This stock has been hit hard on prior forecast cuts and underwhelming results.
So after a big derating, a "less bad than feared" can be a classic bullish catalyst.
So after sentiment washed out but secular #AI demand still intact, can encourage dip buying and short covering in this name.
We also have the #ASML rumour of IP leaking and SMCI speeding up their own fabrication technology.
Micron’s AI Pivot: A 2025 Strategic & Geopolitical AnalysisThe “AI Supercycle” has finally matured from a buzzword into a tangible balance sheet reality. As of mid-December 2025, Micron Technology (MU) stands at a critical inflection point. With the Federal Reserve lowering rates to 3.75% and the semiconductor industry grappling with an unprecedented divergence between enterprise boom and consumer stagnation, Micron has aggressively repositioned itself. The upcoming fiscal Q1 2026 earnings report on December 17 represents more than a financial update; it is a referendum on CEO Sanjay Mehrotra’s high-stakes gamble on High Bandwidth Memory (HBM).
Business Model Transformation: The Enterprise Pivot
Micron is executing one of the most radical structural pivots in its history. The decision to deprioritize, and in some regions effectively sunset, its consumer-facing Crucial brand by early 2026 signals a ruthless allocation of capital. Management has correctly identified that the consumer PC market is a low-margin drag. Instead, production capacity is being violently swung toward enterprise-grade DRAM and AI-centric storage. This moves Micron from a commodity volume player to a specialized, high-margin infrastructure partner for hyperscalers like Microsoft and AWS.
Technology & Innovation: The HBM Wars
Technological supremacy is now defined by the roadmap to HBM4. While SK Hynix initially led the HBM race, Micron’s aggressive rollout of HBM3E has closed the gap. The company’s 1-beta and upcoming 1-gamma nodes utilize extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography to deliver power efficiency metrics that rival Asian competitors. Patent analysis reveals a surge in filings related to 3D-stacking architecture and advanced packaging, confirming that Micron is building a defensive IP moat around its high-performance compute capabilities.
Geostrategy & Geopolitics: Navigating the Fracture
Micron operates on the fault line of the US-China chip war. The lingering effects of Beijing’s 2023 ban on Micron products have accelerated the company’s "China-Plus-One" strategy. In response, Micron has doubled down on domestic manufacturing, leveraging the US CHIPS Act to fund mega-fabs in New York and Idaho. This is not just expansion; it is geopolitical insurance. By embedding itself into the US national security apparatus, Micron mitigates the risk of losing Chinese market share while securing subsidized capital that lowers its long-term cost of production.
Macroeconomics: The Rate Cut Tailwind
The Federal Reserve’s cut to 3.75% this November provides a specific, quantifiable benefit to Micron. Semiconductor manufacturing is arguably the most capital-intensive industry on earth. Lower borrowing costs directly improve the Net Present Value (NPV) of Micron’s multi-billion dollar fab projects. Furthermore, a softer dollar environment boosts the competitiveness of US exports, providing a tailwind for Micron’s international revenue recognition in fiscal 2026.
Cybersecurity & Supply Chain Integrity
In an era of state-sponsored cyber espionage, hardware security is a premium feature. Micron has elevated its cybersecurity posture by securing ISO/SAE 21434 certification for automotive memory, a critical requirement for modern SDVs (Software-Defined Vehicles). This focus extends to the supply chain; rigorous "Zero Trust" protocols now govern raw material sourcing, addressing the vulnerabilities exposed by recent global logistics disruptions. This security-first branding allows Micron to charge a premium to defense and automotive clients who cannot afford compromised hardware.
Management & Leadership
Sanjay Mehrotra’s tenure has been defined by discipline. Unlike previous cycles where memory makers flooded the market, causing price crashes, current leadership has shown remarkable restraint in CapEx spending. The 2025 strategy focuses on "bit growth discipline"—matching supply strictly to demand. This oligopolistic behavior, shared tacitly by competitors, has successfully engineered a favorable pricing environment, driving gross margins back toward the 40%+ range.
Conclusion: The Verdict
Micron Technology in late 2025 is no longer just a cyclical memory stock; it is a derivative play on the AI infrastructure build-out. The risks—ranging from HBM yield issues to renewed geopolitical friction—are real. However, the company’s strategic withdrawal from low-margin consumer markets and successful capture of CHIPS Act incentives position it favorably. As investors look to December 17, the question is not if AI demand exists, but if Micron can manufacture fast enough to satisfy it.

ARM Holdings : First Long AttemptWhen I asked ChatGPT what Arm does for someone who is not in the chip industry or an electronics engineer, chatgpt gave a very nice answer:
"“A linguist who designed the world’s operating language.”
We're very close to the earnings date. (5 november 2025)
A target price between 200 and 230 is reasonable, but a sharp rise or fall is possible on earnings day.
Whether 230 should be maintained initially or whether a downgrade to the 200 target price will be determined then.
Arm Holdings has subsidiaries in China, making it a giant affected by the US-China trade war.
Reasonable position sizing should be made with this in mind.
We're above the 200 moving average on the 4-hour chart.
ATR % shows that relatively decreasing volatility can experience sharp increases in a short time.
(Not price , volatility )
First, let's try a target of 230 based on a Risk/Reward ratio of 3.
Parameters:
Stop-Loss : 137.5 ( or close under 137.5 )
Risk/Reward Ratio : 3.00
Take-Profit Level : 230.00
As I mentioned above, earnings or other developments can trigger a rapid stop-loss. Therefore, a small position is ideal for this trade.

AMD Trendline Break – Short-Term Weakness, Long-Term AI Power PlAMD has broken below its long-standing ascending trendline, which has been respected multiple times since April. This is the first real sign of weakness after months of steady upside. The $162–165 zone, once strong support, is now acting as resistance. Unless bulls can reclaim this area quickly, AMD risks sliding lower toward $150 or even deeper levels.
Technical View:
• Trendline: Broken on daily chart → bearish short-term shift.
• Resistance: $162–165 (former support), $186–187 (weak high).
• Support Levels: $150 psychological, then $135–140 range.
• Indicators: RSI softening, MACD negative, short-term MAs leaning bearish.
Fundamental Backdrop:
Despite this technical weakness, AMD’s long-term story remains strong. HSBC recently upgraded AMD with a $200 price target, citing its MI350 AI chips that rival Nvidia’s Blackwell GPUs. The MI400, due in 2026, could expand GPU sales to $20B by 2028. Melius Research also raised its target to $175, highlighting AMD’s AI trajectory. Fundamentally, AMD is building momentum as a serious competitor in the AI chip race.
Trade Setup (Swing Idea):
• Entry Zone: $162–165 rejection area.
• Stop Loss: Above $188 (weak high).
• Take Profit 1: $150 (psychological level).
• Take Profit 2: $135–140 demand zone.
• Long-Term Accumulation: Any dip below $150 could be a strategic buy for investors with a $175–200 upside target in the AI cycle.
My View:
Short-term, the break of trendline favors bears — I’m watching for a retest of $162–165 to confirm resistance. Medium-term, I see pullback opportunities. Long-term, AMD’s AI roadmap gives conviction that dips should be accumulated rather than feared.

Intel to 40. A bet on America's chip when the chips are downIntel is an interesting stock. I made a bet on it this week. It’s very cheap trading at book value. Lots of bad news has destroyed this stock while other chip stocks are at all time highs. With a new CEO running the show and investing in next gen chip production, I think he turns it around.
I think it's at 40 within a year, and makes new all time highs after that.
NVIDIA to $228If Nvidia were truly done for, why is it impossible to find their latest 5000 series GPUs?
Even if someone wanted to buy one, they simply can't.
The reason lies in Nvidia's commitment to fulfilling the soaring demand from AI data centers, which has left them unable to produce enough H100 and H200 models.
This situation also allows Nvidia to increase their profit margins significantly, capitalizing on the disparity between demand and the media frenzy surrounding them.
DeepSeek serves as a prime example of how out of touch mainstream media can be.
All DeepSeek did was replicate Chat GPT.
Training models requires substantial computing power. The panic surrounding Nvidia and other semiconductor companies is quite amusing; the demand for computing power is skyrocketing!
The gap between the reality of the AI mega-trend and the narrow focus of mainstream media is staggering! It's astonishingly out of touch! Just as out of touch as Cramer was when he declared META was done at $100, or when he thought Chat GPT would obliterate Google at $88.
Stock prices fluctuate between being overvalued and undervalued. While we have metrics like EGF and PE ratios to assess valuation, indicating that Nvidia is currently inexpensive, this doesn't guarantee it won't drop further. However, it is generally wiser to buy stocks when they are cheap rather than when they are costly.
The greater the deviation from the high then the greater the BUYING OPPORTUNITY being presented for the very best leading companies.
The key takeaway is that the deeper Nvidia falls during its corrections, the more advantageous it could be.
Those who are experiencing anxiety during these declines may find themselves selling at a loss, or for a marginal profit possibly around previous highs, while the stock has the potential to rise to $228 and beyond.
The potential for growth is significant; the $228 Fibonacci extension may not represent the peak. Attempting to predict a top for Nvidia could be misguided. Once it reaches $228, Nvidia might maintain a valuation similar to its current $130 level.
Nvidia : Should I be worried?Looking closely at Nvidia NASDAQ:NVDA , we can see that since March, the price has gravitated back to the Point of Control (POC) on the volume profile. From there, we’ve seen a solid reaction — up around 33%, after Nvidia had previously taken a sharp hit from its recent top.
In my view, it’s very possible that Wave 4 is now complete. It’s been a very complex, sideways consolidation, but that’s typical behavior for a fourth wave. Zoom out, and the bigger picture looks a lot cleaner — this whole range doesn’t seem nearly as messy on the higher timeframes.
That said, I’m not fully bullish yet. For me, $122 is the key level. Only once we break and hold above $122, I’ll shift into a more confidently bullish stance. Until then, it’s still possible we revisit the $80–$85 range, maybe even sweep the previous low. It doesn’t have to happen, but structurally, it’s still on the table.
Given the broader uncertainty — macroeconomic pressure, U.S.–China tensions, regulatory noise — I’m staying cautious. For now, I’m mainly focused on this from an 8-hour chart perspective. Until we get that confirmation above $122, I’m not rushing into any aggressive positions.
Nicest setup I’ve seen in a while-Not complicated; why make it?Tesla with perfect technically sound pattern
Five or six things coming together, including a perfect tag of the breakout line, a perfect tag of the long-term uptrend line a Bollinger band crash perfect tag of the Fibonacci .62

Confessions from the Desk: Nvidia is Up, I Am NotIt’s Friday, the sun is shining, and Nvidia is up. Unfortunately, I am not.
Nvidia sits smugly at $137.19, while my $140 call is officially DOA—dead on arrival, with no chance of resuscitation. I’d like to say I’m surprised, but at this point, it feels like the market is just personally messing with me.
To add insult to injury, my carefully curated basket of stocks has been bouncing around like a drunk day trader on margin. One minute, I think I’m up; the next, I’m refreshing my portfolio like a gambler waiting for a miracle. Spoiler alert: the miracle never comes.
Meanwhile, Nvidia has been making big boy moves—cutting its stake in Arm Holdings, taking a bite out of China’s WeRide, and ghosting Serve Robotics and SoundHound AI like a bad Tinder date. The result? Stocks are moving, headlines are flashing, and somewhere in a penthouse office, a hedge fund manager is smirking at my pain.
Let’s break it down:
Nvidia dumps 44% of Arm Holdings – Apparently, even they have commitment issues.
Exited Serve Robotics & SoundHound AI – Serve was rolling along nicely until, well... it wasn’t. SoundHound AI got the boot, too, and its shares fell 25%. Ouch.
Pumped 1.7 million shares into WeRide – WeRide stock shot up 76%. That’s cool, but guess who doesn’t own WeRide? This guy.
Also bet on AI cloud firm Nebius – Stock rose 8%. Lovely. Again, not in my portfolio.
Now, as Nvidia makes its AI master moves, I sit here staring at my screen, watching Serve Robotics—one of my few February winners—go completely sideways. That’s right, folks. Nvidia’s got a plan, but my portfolio? It’s just vibing.
But hey, it’s Friday, the sun is out, and at least I don’t own SoundHound AI. Small wins, right?
Happy Friday
