To The Moon

Wall Street sank into red territory as tech rout deepened on soaring AI budgets sparking flight to safety, with Big Tech names taking the hardest hits amid capex fears without clear ROI. Apple dropped 5% to $240 on AI concerns, AppLovin tumbled 20% to $65 despite strong earnings pushing back against "software apocalypse" narrative from Anthropic's agents – this ad tech powerhouse's Q4 rev +66% to $1.658B and net +84% to $1.102B crushed est, but panic selling overshadowed. SanDisk jumps 5% to $82 on 2Q profit beat driven by AI demand, Fastly soars 12% to $25 amid edge computing surge. Apple sees $200 billion market-cap wipeout as stock slides on AI fears, erasing gains in a flash amid broader rotation out of growth plays. Coinbase posts surprise loss on crypto trading slowdown, shares up 1% to $323 – this retail battle heat-up with stock trading push adds 10% potential if adoption surges 15%. Applied Materials forecasts upbeat results on AI demand, memory shortage; shares up 13% to $250 – this semis edge on HBM ramps triples bookings for 15% growth. Rivian stock jumps 15% to $15 on beat earning estimates, forecasts growth in 2026 – EV pivot amid policy grips adds 20% upside if costs hold. Roku forecasts annual revenue above estimates, shares rise 11% to $75 – streaming boom on ad ROI lifts 15% if utilization hits 40%. 😤🩸

This tech angst reflects broader fears of overinvestment in AI without proportional returns, tanking Nasdaq 2.4% intraday and wiping $760B – but selective winners like Applied Materials and Rivian show demand divergence in semis and EVs. Geopolitical tariff teases add wildcard pressure, with 60% China hits risking 0.5% inflation pops that delay Fed easing, capping S&P upside at 6,900 if hot data persists. Emerging markets cheer dollar dips to 94, with India's Nifty up 0.5% pulling inflows 10% as Asia's STI holds at 4,500 on bank yields like DBS's 4.2% drip hinting safe harbors. Crypto dips 1.5% to $85K testing support, but cool PCE could rebound 5% to $90K on risk-on flows. Gold's $4,670 record and silver's $66 highs hedge debasement, shining amid uncertainty. 😏🌟

Tech Rout Carnage Snapshot Table 📉

$Apple(AAPL)$ $AppLovin Corporation(APP)$ $Fastly, Inc.(FSLY)$ $Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$ $Rivian Automotive, Inc.(RIVN)$

This rout's rotation adds spice to tariff teases against Europe crimp 5%, but QT flood keeps upside alive for dip buys in defensives like utilities up 1.2%. Geopolitical edges add drags, but silver's industrial edge from EV/solar deficits provides punch for hedges. The apocalypse extends – who's hunting bargains in APP or bailing on AAPL? Share your tactics! 🤑🍀

Tech angst dominates with Nasdaq 2.4% dip wiping $760B, but winners like AMAT's 13% on memory shortage show selective demand. Coinbase's surprise loss but +1% uptick heats retail wars, potential 10% lift if adoption hits. Rivian's 15% jump on beat forecasts growth signals EV pivot strength amid subsidy slashes. Roku's 11% rise on revenue above est boosts streaming plays on ad ROI. Emerging slowdowns hit EM 5%, but Asia's resilience shines through. 😤🚀

Stocks to watch: Apple (AAPL) for AI pulse, AppLovin (APP) rebound from panic, SanDisk (WDC) on memory boom, Fastly (CDN) edge surge, Coinbase (COIN) trading push, Applied Materials (AMAT) semis edge, Rivian (RIVN) EV beat, Roku (ROKU) streaming forecast.

Trading opportunities abound: Long APP calls at $60 dips for 25% pop to $81 if earnings shine, AAPL longs at $235 for 10% to $260 on demand rebound, AMAT calls on shortage for 15% to $288, RIVN longs at $14 for 20% to $18, ROKU calls on forecast for 15% to $86, short COIN puts on push for 10% to $355. Arbitrary plays? Pair long AMAT/short legacy semis for AI alpha. Risks: Hot PCE spikes VIX to 30, flushing 2%.

My plans: Scooping APP dips for quick 25% flip, adding RIVN on beat, hedging with VIX calls amid PCE risks – annual goals on track, gunning for 5% February grabs on AI edges. 🎯🤑
