Korean market continues to fall pressuring the memory names and weighing on the semi sector. Monkeys still want tech and are nibbling on software as semi fall with MSFT, NOW are 2 large names to watch. AAPL higher as it serves as a safety name if monkeys are exiting AI/semis. Healthcare/staples have had statistically large moves and worth watching for signs of exhaustion.  SPX0DTE 7700 is the bull bear level with potential for 7780/7800 to the upside. With Opex may see some reversion from tech weakness, staples strength as positions close. MAGS names will be reporting in the next 2 weeks and will be watching for positioning to evolve. The AI debt situation is now important to pay attention to.

    NOW

    NOW idea is an idea if tech monkeys rotate into software from AI/Semis. It’s not a great set-up as the name is stretched but the call wall is 150 which is potentially resistance or breakout level.  Earnings Oct28
