Google, TSMC Spark Massive Bearish Option Flows as Tech Risk Reprices After AI tech stocks repeatedly notched fresh all-time highs, short-term risk signals in the options market are heating up significantly. $Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$   set a record at $313.98 yesterday but slipped 2% to around $302 today; $Alphabet(GOOG)$   also pulled back from recent highs to $313. Though the declines aren't steep, both companies saw large, directionally clear options flows right at critical high-volatility levels, making “short-term risk repricing in mega-cap tech” a key market focus. TSMC: $6.8M in concentrated Put sweeps

AI Semiconductors in 2026: Peak Boom Before the Shakeout In 2026, the AI boom is projected to peak in intensity as CreditSights expects the top five hyperscalers to increase combined capex by approximately 36% to about 602 billion USD, up from roughly 443 billion USD in 2025, with nearly 75% allocated to AI semiconductors. $Microsoft(MSFT)$   has already recorded 34.9 billion USD in quarterly capex and projects an increase in 2026, while $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$   has raised its 2025 guidance to 70–72 billion USD with models suggesting a 2026 figure near 100 billion USD. On the supply side, 

I’m fully on board with the space-stock rally, and the excitement around a potential SpaceX IPO really feels like Tesla in 2019—right before its major breakout. Space names such as $Destiny Tech100 Inc(DXYZ)$ , XOVR, Rocket Lab, Firefly, Planet Labs, SATS, AST SpaceMobile are gaining because investors finally see space infrastructure as a scalable, long-term growth sector. What’s driving this momentum is the belief that SpaceX is evolving far beyond a launch company. Starlink, defense contracts, rapid-launch capability, even the idea of space-based data centers are expanding its valuation outlook. Strong earnings from Planet Labs & SATS’s multibillion-dolla

$Broadcom(AVGO)$  I feel the present semiconductor dip presents a potential buying opportunity for long-term investors, as  fundamental AI demand still remains strong despite recent market rotation and short-term volatility. The market rather is consolidating after significant gains, with investors becoming more discerning and reacting sharply to disappointing results like those from Oracle. Broadcom's robust Q4 2025 earnings report confirms continued strong AI demand, which we could likely interpret as a positive signal for the sector's underlying strength.  While short-term volatility exists, medium term history suggests that after every downturn, chip sales continue to reach higher highs due to structural demand. For th

Silver’s breakout above its previous peak signals strong momentum. It is benefiting from both monetary demand and tightening industrial supply, so its outperformance relative to gold is not surprising. Gold’s rebound remains intact, supported by the rate-cut cycle, softer real yields, and steady central-bank accumulation. If you entered earlier in the year, your position is likely in profit since spot gold and silver have climbed steadily after the October correction. Short-term swings aside, the structural drivers remain supportive. Gold could retest its previous highs before year-end if real yields drift lower and ETF inflows resume. Seasonality also tends to favour precious metals in December. Silver, however, is showing stronger beta and may continue to lead if risk sentiment improves.

$Broadcom(AVGO)$  The after-hours pullback in Broadcom reflects expectation management rather than a breakdown in fundamentals. Is the semiconductor dip a buying opportunity? Selective rather than broad. The sector has rerated sharply on the AI theme, so any data point that does not exceed lofty expectations invites profit-taking. That said, secular demand for AI infrastructure, networking, and custom silicon remains intact. High-quality names with pricing power, diversified end markets, and visible cash flows still justify accumulation on weakness. Lower-quality, narrative-driven names deserve more caution. Has the market abandoned the AI narrative? No. What we are seeing is a transition from narrative-driven multiple expansion to execution-

Broadcom Beat Estimates: So Why Did the Stock Tank? Global AI ASIC leader $Broadcom(AVGO)$   released its FY2025 Q4 earnings after hours. Although the quarterly results exceeded expectations across the board, the stock price took a sharp dive shortly after the earnings call began. So, what exactly was discussed during the call? Why Did the Stock Plunge? The $73 Billion AI Revenue Guidance: Bright, But Not Dazzling Enough The recent explosive popularity of $Alphabet(GOOG)$  's TPUv7 has once again ignited market enthusiasm for the ASIC sector. As Google's core partner for TPUs, Broadcom stands at the forefront of this trend. The m

For me, investing in precious metals has always been about patience and long-term value rather than short-term speculation. I've held both gold and silver positions, and it's been rewarding to see silver hitting a fresh all-time high. It's impressive how silver has outpaced gold recently, showing strong momentum and renewed investor interest. Gold, on the other hand, seems to be entering a rebound phase. I've been closely following institutional forecasts, and seeing some analysts raise gold's price target to $5,000 in 2026 definitely reinforces my confidence in its long-term potential. While my gold position has already delivered decent gains, I remain patient, knowing that precious metals tend to reward those who can stay invested through volatility. I think both metals have their merits

Broadcom's latest earnings clearly show that the company is executing well operationally. Adjusted EPS of $1.95 and revenue of $18.02 billion for fiscal Q4 beat analyst expectations, and year-over-year growth of 37% in earnings and 28% in sales is impressive. AI semiconductor sales, which jumped 74% YoY, were a major contributor, and the guidance for Q1 revenue of $19.1 billion — up 28% YoY — underscores that Broadcom continues to ride strong demand in the AI and data center markets. On paper, this is a robust performance. That said, the market reaction tells a different story. Broadcom stock fell more than 4% in after-hours trading despite the earnings beat. The reason seems to be the $73 billion backlog in AI products, which, surprisingly, disappointed some investors. It appears that exp
