After Friday's short squeeze in Intel (+30% at one point in pre-market) — I decided to pop the latch on the semiconductor engine. I found a few monkey wrenches. But I also found a double bottom forming in one of Wall Street's favorite hyperscalers ($IBM).
$INTC (Intel) — The AI perma-bulls seemed to throw caution to the wind on Friday, as they drove the stock to new all-time highs in Thursday's after-hours session — putting a few more sprinkles on the already heavily frosted rally in semiconductor stocks.
🔧 A Few Monkey Wrenches:
- Super risky, highly speculative microcaps like $COHU being FOMO bought — red flag — reminiscent of the crypto pump of '25
- The same bots we watched drive crypto to the moon and back last year were spotted trolling the financial hashtags on X — HUGE RED FLAG

THE DANGLING CARROT WALL STREET MUST CHASE
You gotta take the good with the bad — especially heading into what may be the biggest earnings week for tech stocks all year. And I found a big juicy carrot dangling directly in front of the perma-bulls — one they ABSOLUTELY CANNOT RESIST. Why? Because it's a "hyperscaler" (fancy Wall Street word for "big cloud company") — and I plan to tear that whole world apart in an upcoming 3-part series. DON'T MISS IT.
$IBM — Trades into a perfect double bottom (that's no coincidence). I think it can easily rally back to the June 2025 level of $290. Wall Street holds a broadly bullish consensus on IBM, with 60% of analysts rating it a Buy and 40% maintaining a Neutral stance — notably, 0% carry a Bearish rating.

Warning to 401k fans: We've gone to 100% cash and dropped new contributions to 0%!I'm not saying stocks are going to crash right here — but the S&P is trading back near the top of the range. "New All-Time Highs" is mostly smoke and mirrors. Most stocks are not trading at all-time highs — far from it.
Take Care, AA P.S. — Reminder: Intel became a government-sponsored enterprise when the Trump administration purchased a nearly 10% stake (433.3 million shares) in August 2025 — a move designed to bolster domestic semiconductor production. So the question worth asking: if chip demand is so insatiable, why does Intel need a government lifeline at all? |
