Positive? At 20:30 Beijing time tomorrow night, the non-farm payroll will be implemented, and US stocks are set to face a key decision At 20:30 this Friday evening, the July nonfarm payroll report will be released. This is the most important employment data since the Federal Reserve's July meeting, and it will directly rewrite September rate expectations, affecting all assets in US stocks, Treasuries, and cryptocurrencies. Previously, ADP's small nonfarm payroll data was clearly below expectations, giving the market an early warning as employment gradually cooled. The three data scenarios correspond to the U.S. stock market trends Scenario 1: Nonfarm payrolls are significantly stronger than expected, and wages rise in tandem Strong employment will delay rate cut expectations, pushing U.S. Treasury yields higher. High-valuation AI technology and storage sectors are under the heaviest pressure, while growth stocks like MU and SNDK are prone to selling pressure; Dow blue chips are relatively resilient to declines, and the overall index shows divergence. Scenario 2: Nonfarm payrolls weaken significantly, unemployment rises The market will strengthen expectations for rate cuts, U.S. Treasury yields will fall, which is positive for tech growth stocks. Storage and AI hardware have the opportunity to see a recovery and rebound. But one risk must be watched for: if the data is too poor, it could trigger market concerns about an economic recession, leading to a short-term broad drop. Scenario 3: Data and expectations basically match Employment cooled mildly, neither hot nor lukewarm. U.S. stocks continue the current tear-off pattern, with the Dow slightly strong, the Nasdaq oscillating at high levels, the market returning to earnings report logic, and sector rotation continues. Putting aside nonfarm payrolls, the U.S. stock market will be the next outlook 1. The storage sector is currently in a phase of intense volatility following the financial report falsification. SNDK has made a deep V reversal, but the issue of downward expectations brought by the earnings report has not completely disappeared. Looking ahead, focus on whether the key support in MU can be held; holding it will mean sector differentiation and recovery; Once it effectively breaks below the threshold, the current round of storage will enter a mid-term valuation digestion phase. Don't treat the oversold rebound as a new main rally. 2. Structural market differentiation will continue to unfold. Stocks whose guidance exceeds expectations will continue to enjoy premiums; Even if profits are high, companies with conservative shareholder returns and future guidance will continue to be abandoned by capital. The broad rally has ended, making stock selection more difficult. 3. Risk points cannot be ignored. $SPCX massive unlocking pressure remains, which will occasionally disturb the market and amplify the spike volatility.

Tonight, the nonfarm payroll will not only affect BTC, but also highly volatile semiconductor and storage stocks like SanDisk (SNDK) and Micron (MU), which tend to be more sensitive to interest rate changes than the broader market. There are three main reasons. **First, SNDK and MU are high-beta, strongly cyclical tech assets. **Memory industry earnings are sensitive to product prices, AI capital expenditure, corporate inventory, and global economic expectations. When market risk appetite improves, these stocks often have greater upward potential; Conversely, when Treasury yields rise rapidly and the market enters risk-off, the drawdown of high-valuation semiconductor stocks is usually more pronounced. Second, the market has already priced in very high AI growth expectations in advance. Reuters data shows that in the second quarter of 2026, U.S. tech sector earnings will grow about 72% year-on-year, and overall S&P 500 corporate earnings will grow about 31.1% year-on-year, with AI infrastructure investment being one of the most important driving forces. AI capital from major tech companies like Microsoft, Meta, Alphabet, and Amazon continues to expand, leading the market to assign high growth premiums to the data center, storage, network, and semiconductor industry chains. But high growth also means high expectations. The higher the expectations, the more sensitive they are to bad macro news and earnings forecasts. SanDisk has already provided a very typical case. The company's latest quarterly results are strong, with data center revenue up about 400% year-on-year, but the stock price still fell about 13.3% in the latest trading day; Western Digital fell about 19.1%, and semiconductor stocks like Micron, Seagate, AMD, and Marvell also came under varying degrees of pressure. The market is no longer trading about "whether earnings are growing," but "whether growth exceeds previously high implied expectations." Therefore, after tonight's nonfarm payroll release, don't just focus on new jobs, nor do you jump straight to SNDK, MU, and BTC just because the nonfarm payrolls fell short of expectations. What really matters is how the market interprets this set of data. I will focus on this conduction chain: Nonfarm → 2Y US Treasury → 10Y US Treasury → USD DXY → Nasdaq Futures → MU/SNDK → BTC Among these, the 2-year Treasury yield is particularly important because it is most sensitive to Fed policy expectations; The 10-year yield reflects more long-term inflation, growth, and term premiums. Currently, the 10-year yield recently hovered around 4.6%, so if nonfarm payrolls cause yields to rise rapidly again, valuation pressure on high-valuation technology assets will increase significantly. Scenario One: The most standard loose trade If the nonfarm payroll is moderately below expectations, and the following occurs: 2Y ↓ 10Y ↓ DXY ↓ Nasdaq ↑ MU/SNDK ↑ BTC ↑ This indicates that the market is mainly trading in cooling employment→ the probability of further Fed rate hikes→ and marginally loose financial conditions. This is the cleanest positive combination for BTC and high-beta tech stocks. For SNDK, after the earnings report, it has already undergone a significant correction. If yields fall and tech risk appetite rebounds simultaneously, a technical rebound is more likely. Scenario 2: Weak data, but the market is not buying it If the nonfarm payroll falls short of expectations but still appears: 2Y down but up 10Y; DXY is not falling; Oil prices are rising; Nasdaq is falling It cannot simply be understood as "employment gap = loose = positive news." This means the market may be trading in long-term inflation, fiscal risks, energy prices, and even recession risks. In this scenario, even if the headline appears bullish, SNDK, MU, and BTC could still decline. Scenario 3: A typical higher-for-longer trade If the non-farm payrolls are significantly stronger than expected, and at the same time: 2Y ↑ 10Y ↑ DXY ↑ Nasdaq ↓ SNDK/MU ↓ BTC ↓ So the market trading is the most standard: Higher for Longer. Reuters has previously experienced similar situations: strong employment data pushed the market to raise expectations for Fed rate hikes, putting significant pressure on risk assets. For SNDK, this environment is especially noteworthy. It has just experienced "strong earnings reports still falling," indicating the market is already in a phase of high expectations, high valuations, and high sensitivity to bad news. If jobs are strong tonight and further yields rise, funds may prioritize reducing high-beta semiconductor positions. Conversely, if the nonfarm payrolls remain moderately weak and yields fall in tandem, then "significant adjustment after earnings reports + easing macro interest rate pressures" could actually create favorable conditions for a short-term rebound. But even so, we shouldn't assume SNDK has bottomed out just because non-farm profits are bullish. True confirmation of a decline ultimately depends on price: reclaiming the key support that has been broken, gaining support on pullbacks, and reestablishing higher and lower points. Macroeconomic data determines whether capital is willing to take risks, while technological structure determines where to truly enter the market. $SNDK #联储鹰派信号升温, can weak employment suppress inflation? Who is accelerating, who is cooling down: Comparing the hourly speeds of three assets back to the whole day The most common misunderstanding in the one-hour trending chart is treating total volume directly as a trend. According to the official snapshot from OKX Onchain OS at 14:00 (China time) on August 7, BTC, ETH, and SOL were mentioned 36, 9, and 26 times respectively in the past hour; The total 24-hour volume was 1,325, 731, and 482 times. To compare the two windows, you can first divide the total 24-hour volume by 24 and then compare with the latest hour. The results are BTC at 0.65x, ETH at 0.30x, and SOL at 1.29x. A value above one indicates the latest hour's activity is higher than the full-day average; below one indicates relative quiet; This is just the speed of discussion, not the rate of return. By this logic, BTC has clearly slowed down, ETH has slowed down, and SOL has slightly accelerated. Whoever has the highest original mentions may not necessarily be the one whose baseline is heating up the fastest. Separating "highest volume" from "fastest acceleration" can reduce many misjudgments. The tone also needs to be considered on another level. BTC is close to bullish and bearish, with 17% bullish and 22% bearish bias; ETH is slightly bullish with ratios of 33% and 22%; SOL is clearly bullish with ratios of 65% and 0%. The key here is the denominator. ETH only happens 9 times per hour, SOL 26 times, so a few new texts can significantly change the percentage; BTC, although the sample size is large, may also include retweets and references from the same event. When ranking by percentage, don't forget how much text is behind each group. The 24-hour average is not a perfect baseline. It mixes different market periods and also flattens the peaks before and after announcements. If the latest hour is higher, it may be a new event or just an active period; If it is low, it may be a natural cooldown. There is no continuous snapshot; the speed per session only describes the current position. You can also do a simple reverse check: suppose an asset is mentioned more than twice as fast but the bearish ratio rises simultaneously; this should not be written as "heat turning bullish"; If the bullish proportion is high but the speed is only half the long window average, it is also inappropriate to say that new consensus is expanding. Putting these two counterexamples into the judgment framework helps avoid jumping to conclusions based on a single attractive number. When I read these rankings, I divide them into three layers: one hour to find turning points, four hours to see if it can continue, and twenty-four hours to confirm if it becomes the main theme for the day. Finally, I refocus on spot trading, funding rates, open interest, and on-chain activity to see if there is real market participation behind the attention. If the next round completely changes the speed ranking of the three assets, this ranking will only be a snapshot of a time period; If the same asset leads consecutively and sentiment gaps remain stable after sample size increases, then it is worth raising the tracking priority. Although this conditional judgment is not as catchy as "sure to rise," it is easier to verify right or wrong later. Therefore, this set of dual-window data is suitable for answering "Where is it heating up" and not for answering "Where to go next" alone? Currently, the speed and tone of the three asset types are not exactly the same; keeping this difference is closer to the data itself than condensing all the numbers into a single bullish or bearish view.🇺🇸 CLARITY Act postponed to September, so why has the coin price barely reacted? The U.S. Senate has confirmed that it will not vote on the CLARITY Act before the August recess, and plans to wait until the session resumes on September 14 before prioritizing the advance of the cryptocurrency market structure bill. At the core of the CLARITY Act is to clarify the regulatory authority of the SEC and CFTC over crypto assets, and to establish clearer rules for exchanges, token issuers, and DeFi. If passed, it would indeed be a major boon for the long-term development of the U.S. crypto industry. However, this delay did not cause significant fluctuations in mainstream coins like BTC and ETH. The reason is simple: the market had long expected it not to pass in August. In recent weeks, the bill has failed to gather the 60 votes needed to move forward, with Democrats calling for stricter conflict-of-interest clauses, and bipartisan disagreements over enforcement authority, stablecoin yields, and DeFi regulations. As the recess date approaches, the market has gradually lowered expectations for short-term passage of the bill, and related risks are already priced in in advance. Therefore, the official confirmation of the delay this time feels more like "confirming a result everyone already knew," rather than suddenly appearing as a new negative news. Since it didn't exceed expectations, there was naturally no need for a large repricing. What truly deserves attention is whether the Senate can quickly find bipartisan consensus after reconvening in September. By then, the midterm elections will be closer, and there will be less legislative time available; If progress still cannot be made in September, the risk of the CLARITY Act being delayed for longer or even redoing the legislative process will truly increase. In the short term, the delay has already been priced in by the market; In the medium to long term, September will be the real key test. $BTC 📊 $OKB Contract Liquidation Express (August 8) According to liquidation data, this wave of shorts was brutally crushed by the dog whales... Time Total Liquidation Long Liquidation Short Liquidation 1 hour $4,833.28 $0 $4,833.28 4 hours $4,833.28 $0 $4,833.28 12 hours $16,900 $0 $16,900 24 hours $17,000 $8.57 $17,000 From the $OKB liquidation data, **short liquidations in the 1-hour and 4-hour periods completely overwhelmed longs**, with longs at zero. The short squeeze unfolded with nuclear-level intensity in short cycles, with short liquidation amounts exactly the same ($4,833.28); the 12-hour short liquidation scale expanded to $16,900, longs still zero, the short squeeze deepening; 24-hour short liquidations surged to $17,000, longs only showed $8.57 resistance, almost negligible, shorts still absolutely dominant. The dog whales completed a full-cycle slaughter of shorts on OKB—shorts in short, medium, and long cycles were all targeted and blasted, with cumulative liquidations exceeding $17,000. Although the scale is limited, the consistency of the short squeeze direction is extremely strong, a textbook-level one-sided short squeeze. Everyone control your positions well, don’t get harvested back and forth. 🔥 Market Weather Vane | August 8 Today's three hot topics point to the same theme: the market has entered the stage of "expectations maxed out, flaws punished"—"exceeding expectations" is just the baseline, any signal of slowing growth will be amplified. 💾 Storage Stocks Drop After Earnings: The Bigger the Boom, the Harder the Fall SanDisk delivered a "legendary" earnings report: Q4 revenue $8.965 billion, a year-over-year surge of 372%; Western Digital's revenue for the same period was $3.747 billion. SK Hynix's Q2 revenue was 79.32 trillion KRW, a year-over-year increase of 557%. However, SanDisk plunged nearly 8% after hours. The culprit was guidance—next quarter's revenue midpoint at $10.55 billion, below the market expectation of $10.82 billion. The market's pricing logic for storage stocks has upgraded from "how good the performance is" to "whether the growth rate is fast enough." Is the AI memory bull market still stable? UBS predicts total storage industry revenue will reach $992 billion by 2026, nearly doubling to $1.76 trillion in 2027, with HBM as the core driver. But short-term pullbacks are also real—as of the end of July, AI storage leaders have averaged about 40% drawdown; in July, SK Hynix's Korean stock had a maximum drawdown of 54%, Samsung Electronics 42%, SanDisk plunged 47% in a single month. The long-term logic of the super cycle remains intact, but valuations have run ahead of fundamentals, and any flaw will be magnified. 🏛️ Fed Hawkish Signals Heat Up: Weak Employment Can't Suppress Inflation Anxiety The July FOMC meeting saw the first three dissenting votes aligned since 2016—three regional Fed presidents advocated a 25 basis point rate hike. Voter Kashkari even said three hikes this year "are not impossible." Can weak employment suppress inflation? July ADP new jobs were only 44,000, the weakest since January. But wage growth remained high at 4.4%, and the ISM services PMI price component soared to 70.3, the highest in four months—"weak employment, strong prices" formed a classic stagflation signal. The market still prices a 54.9% chance of a rate hike in September. 🚀 SpaceX Rebound After Unlock: Classic "Bad News Is Good News" Scenario On August 6, the first batch of 911.5 million SpaceX restricted shares unlocked, potentially releasing about $100 billion in market value. The market had widely expected a sell-off. Instead, the stock rose 6.14%, closing at $114.92. The 13.6% plunge after earnings on Wednesday had already priced in the unlocking pressure; new selling was effectively absorbed by bargain hunters and short covering. The market played out the classic "bad news is good news" script. But the alert is not over—another 319 million shares may unlock on August 20, and about 700 million more are expected in September. 💎 Summary SanDisk’s 372% growth was exchanged for a plunge, proving storage stock valuations have run ahead of fundamentals; the Fed is caught between weak employment and high inflation, with stagflation signals emerging; SpaceX’s counter-trend rebound on unlock day played out the classic "bad news is good news" script. When beating expectations becomes standard, every deviation in guidance will be infinitely magnified—the old logic is collapsing, new pricing power is forming, and it punishes all "imperfect" answers. #存储股财报后下挫,AI内存牛市还稳吗? #联储鹰派信号升温,弱就业能否压过通胀? #财报观察员:解禁后反涨,SpaceX后续怎么看? As of Friday, the market has turned pessimistic about the US-Iran situation and the new plan for the strait, with a lot of noise in the market. For example, Iran's parliament raised demands for the strait plan, Washington wants a no-charge plan, Saudi Arabia claims it discovers Iran is planning an attack, and so on—all of these make the new straits co-management agreement less optimistic But personally, I believe this weekend is a critical point. The US-Iran situation has reached a critical point, so we should ignore the noise and try to reverse the logic with the goal of results September enters a critical stage of the midterm elections, with the Chinese leader's visit to the U.S. scheduled for the scheduled date. Trump has already begun "playing cards out of thin air" to prepare for the multi-sided contest between China and the U.S., and these two events inevitably carry more weight than Middle East issues Therefore, facing these two major events, Trump will not allow the U.S. or Iran to maintain a "fire" stance, and he must calm oil prices and ease inflation expectations. These issues require time to buffer, so the U.S. window to resolve the Iran issue is, in principle, less than a month, or even just 1-2 weeks The current noise in Iran comes from internal hardliners, who need to be appeased before sitting down to negotiate with the US. The US noise is also meant to appease the military hardliners. Therefore, the Straits Agreement is a critical turning point. If this agreement is missed, both sides will inevitably return to a tense phase, an outcome neither the US nor Iran wants to see As for Saudi Arabia, it has recently been working closely with the US, which naturally provokes Iran's hostility and targeting. Saudi Arabia's so-called Iranian attacks are likely preparations by Iran to prevent US attacks. Iran's strategy is simple: if it can't hit the US, it targets key US allies. So, overall, although optimism is expected to cool, I believe the situation is still moving in a positive direction, and we look forward to a complete turnaround next week. Regarding energy prices, although there has been a rebound, the overall strength of the rebound is not high, indicating the market has not yet entered a phase of genuine concern and panic. Please be patient and wait! #伊朗阿曼通航协议遇阻, oil price risks are heating up again 确定性判断:Uniswap Labs 于 8 月 5 日在 Robinhood Chain 上正式推出代币发行平台 Pools.trade——这绝非一次简单的功能迭代,而是 Uniswap 从交易基础设施向代币发行前端延伸的战略性跨越。 该平台提供两种差异化的代币发行模式,精准覆盖不同阶段的项目需求: · 即时发行(Instant Launch) :适合已具备社群基础的项目。创建者支付初始流动性后,代币即刻进入 Uniswap v4 流动性池开始交易,实现无缝启动。 · 众筹发行(Crowdsale) :设置四小时发行窗口,采用时间加权平均价格(TWAP)竞价机制,从机制层面压制狙击机器人的抢跑行为。发行结束后,代币结算并进入永久锁定的 v4 流动性池。 Pools.trade 最核心的设计理念在于永久锁定流动性——这与 Pump.fun 在代币完成“毕业”后迁移流动性的模式形成了本质分野。Uniswap 不收取平台发行费,仅保留 0.25% 的 LP 费率,其中 80% 自动复投流动性池以强化深度,20% 分配给代币创建者作为激励。相比之下,其他发射平台的费率普遍高达 1% 左右。 首日数据印证了市场对这套新范式的强烈认可: · Robinhood 链上 Uniswap v4 成交额达 7360 万美元,反超以太坊主网的 4720 万美元,一跃成为最活跃网络。 · 截至 8 月 6 日,累计成交额已突破 1.5 亿美元。 · 上线首日铸造约 6000 种代币,超过 Pons、Flap、Bankr 等竞争平台的日发行量总和。 · 按发行平台交易量计算,Pools.trade 已占据 50% 市场份额。 · 生态头部代币 FRONG 市值突破 820 万美元。 战略背景不容忽视: Robinhood 拥有约 2500 万月活用户,是美国渗透率最高的零售投资平台之一。Uniswap 作为其 L2 链的默认 AMM,直接接入了这批此前从未接触过 DeFi 的增量用户群体。仅 2026 年 7 月,通过 Robinhood Chain 发行的新代币数量就超过 34 万个。更为关键的是,Robinhood Chain 贡献的收入已占 Uniswap 每周协议收入的近一半,且 Uniswap 在该链的收入已超越以太坊主网近 300%。 社区争议主要集中在费率设计层面。 批评者测算,在 100 万美元交易量下,其他平台创作者可获得约 6000 美元分成,而 Pools.trade 仅约 500 美元。对此,Hayden Adams 回应称,高费率本质上是隐形抽税,最终牺牲的是交易者利益;0.25% 的低费率与自动复投机制相结合,更有利于代币长期流动性的可持续增长。 对 UNI 的直接影响同样显著: 消息公布后,UNI 从 24 小时低点反弹近 7%。更大的变化发生在治理层面——100 号提案通过后,协议费用的一部分被重新导向 TokenJar 智能合约,自动在公开市场买入 UNI 并永久销毁。协议日收入从约 11.4 万美元跃升至 32.5 万美元以上,UNI 正在从纯粹的治理代币向具备实际现金流支撑的通缩资产演进。 Pools.trade 目前仍处于 Beta 阶段,但一组数据足以说明其体量——上线前通过早期合约版本促成的交易量已超过 1.5 亿美元。Uniswap 用三步走完了从基础设施到流量入口再到发行工具的完整闭环:先在 Robinhood Chain 全面部署协议,再上线 Launches 发现功能,最后推出 Pools.trade 发行工具。从交易后端走向代币发行前端,这一战略路径对 UNI 的长期估值逻辑构成值得持续跟踪的深远变化。The crypto derivatives market is experiencing a widespread liquidity retreat. According to A's early issuance monitoring, Perp DEXs had a trading volume of about $498.2 billion over the past 30 days, down 63.4% from the peak of about $1.36 trillion in October last year. Almost all major protocols are contracting in tandem: Hyperliquid: daily average trading volume fell from $5.988 billion to $3.058 billion; Lighter: from $1.666 billion to $1.111 billion; GRVT: Sunday average volume down 59.1%; DYDX: Sunday average volume down 43.2%; Ethereum and Solana: down 26.8% and 22.5% respectively. During the same period, HLP's scale dropped to about $215 million, with a yield of only about 0.018%; Lighter LLP fell to $80.62 million. Market Characteristics Divergence: Trade.xyz is one of the few protocols that continues to grow—its daily average turnover rose from $3.888 billion to $5.134 billion, and its share of crypto and traditional asset contracts rose from 39.4% to 62.7%. At the core of this differentiation is that Trade.xyz connect crypto and traditional financial markets through perpetual contracts, covering US stocks and Korean tech stocks, and absorbing some cross-market trading demand during liquidity contractions within the crypto market. Some observations: Hyperliquid's HLP size has declined in sync with yields, indicating that the attractiveness of arbitrage funds is waning; Wintermut📊 $XAUT Contract Liquidation Express (August 8) According to liquidation data, this wave of short positions was frantically crushed by the Dog Traders...

Dog Farm completed a full-cycle slaughter of shorts on XAUT — short, medium, and long-term shorts were targeted and exploded across all directions. The bulls' only resistance appeared slightly over the long cycle, but it was just a drop in the bucket, with cumulative liquidations exceeding $130,000. As a gold stablecoin, XAUT saw a significant increase in liquidation volume today, with shorts bleeding like rivers and short squeezes unstoppable.

Is August really bad for Bitcoin? Since 2013, BTC has had a bullish candlestick closing on August 9/13, nearly 70%. Although there has been a slight rebound (2.3%) since the beginning of the month, the outlook for Bitcoin this year is quite unfavorable because funds are being drawn away by AI and other high-risk assets. Buying power in cryptocurrencies, including ETFs, is also weak, with no new trends or narratives to attract more capital. At this stage, it feels like BTC is still testing its bottom for this cycle. *For reference information, not investment advice A lockup expiry can reveal more about positioning than fundamentals. SpaceX rising about 6% as up to 911.5M shares became eligible for sale suggests the immediate supply risk may have been more anticipated than feared. Still, the first post-IPO report leaves a harder test ahead: roughly $7.8B in revenue, up about 90% YoY, alongside a $541M net loss and concern over higher AI capex. My read is that the rebound buys management time, not immunity. From here, guidance, margins and cash discipline must turn the AI-space infrastructure thesis into measurable operating progress.

The reaction across memory and storage stocks this week taught me something important: AI demand can remain strong while AI-related stocks still fall hard. Western Digital beat estimates with roughly $3.75B in quarterly revenue and $3.56 adjusted EPS, yet investors punished the stock. Sandisk also delivered a strong quarter, including $8.97B revenue, but its next-quarter revenue midpoint failed to clear the expectations already built into the price. That distinction matters. The market isn't asking whether AI needs more storage and memory anymore. It already believes that. It is asking whether scarcity, pricing power and margins can keep improving fast enough to justify valuations that have already moved several years forward. That's a much harder test. Sandisk and Western Digital had risen dramatically during the AI infrastructure trade before this correction, so simply “beating estimates” became insufficient. Investors wanted another acceleration. Meanwhile, actual memory supply still looks tight. NVIDIA and SK Group recently expanded their long-term partnership around next-generation AI memory, while industry research says 2027 HBM negotiations remain constrained by limited supply. There are even discussions around reducing memory configurations in future Rubin Ultra designs because of packaging and supply constraints. If that happens, I would not automatically interpret it as weaker AI demand. It could be engineers adapting the product to what the supply chain can realistically deliver. That's the real bull test now: Not “Is AI consuming more memory?” But “Can memory suppliers convert scarcity into durable earnings before expectations outrun reality?” That is the metric I would watch. #AIMemoryBullTest #FedHawksVsWeakJobs #SpaceXUnlockRebound $BTC $XSPCX $SOL While massive bonds received several times oversubscription, secondary market stock prices continued to plunge, with capital expenditure expansion and the loss of core technical talent intertwined at the same time. Alphabet completed a $25 billion bond issuance, with the longest tranche yield 1.3 percentage points higher than Treasuries and attracting $115 billion in orders, while $GOOGL shares fell more than 5% within two days after the news was announced. The 2026 capital expenditure forecast has been raised to a maximum of $205 billion, leading to negative free cash flow. Combined with over $114 billion in debt financing since early 2025, the departure of core researchers has raised market concerns about the efficiency of fund use. Rising financing costs and the loss of technical talent have intertwined, significantly dampening risk appetite in equity markets. The expectation that capital expenditures are difficult to immediately convert into commercial monetization is repricing asset values. If large-scale computing power investment can quickly convert into measurable commercial income, driving cash flow recovery, market valuations will be supported again; If the pace of realization slows down to the consumption of debt interest and capital expenditure, the upward trajectory will be interrupted. If the market confirms that model iteration delays caused by the departure of core researchers are confirmed, and continued cash flow consumption leads to high borrowing costs, selling pressure from position reversals may further expand; If the new management structure quickly demonstrates R&D efficiency, downside risks will be curbed. The root cause of the current valuation correction lies in capital expenditure squeezing cash flow. If the pace of debt expansion slows or computing power monetization efficiency improves beyond expectations, the market's pessimistic judgment about excessive infrastructure consumption will be disproven. In the next 7 days, focus on monitoring the spread between long-term government bonds and corporate bonds to assess the sustained transmission strength of debt financing costs to equity asset valuations. #谷歌母公司发债250亿美元, pressure to invest in AI intensifies. #联储鹰派信号升温, can weak employment outpace inflation? #CLARITY投票或延至9月, ethical differences remain unresolved📊 $NEAR合约爆仓速递(8月8日) 根据爆仓数据,这波多头被狗庄按在地上疯狂摩擦了。。。 时间 总爆仓 多单爆仓 空单爆仓 1小时 $129.34 $81.58 $47.76 4小时 $1,975.36 $1,740.93 $234.44 12小时 $18.05万 $18.02万 $244.44 24小时 $27.25万 $27.05万 $1,988.39 从$NEAR爆仓数据看,1小时多空差距不大,方向尚不明朗;4小时多头爆仓碾压空头,多头是空头的7.4倍,杀多行情全面爆发;12小时多头优势急剧扩大,比例飙升至737倍,杀多进入核爆级烈度;24小时多头爆仓飙升至27万美元,是空头的136倍,狗庄在NEAR上完成了对多头的全周期屠杀——短中长周期多头被全方位定向爆破,空头仅有的反抗杯水车薪,累计爆仓突破27万美元。多头血流成河,杀多行情势如破竹。大家控制好仓位,别被来回收割。 🔥 市场风向标 | 8月8日 今日三条热点,指向同一主题:市场已进入"预期拉满,瑕疵必杀"的阶段——"超预期"只是及格线,任何增速放缓的信号都会被放大。 💾 存储股财报后下挫:业绩越炸,跌得越狠 闪迪交出"封神级"财报:Q4营收89.65亿美元,同比暴增372%;西部数据同期营收37.47亿美元。SK海力士二季度营收79.32万亿韩元,同比大增557%。 然而,闪迪盘后一度重挫近8%。元凶是指引——下季营收中值105.5亿美元,低于市场预期的108.2亿美元。市场对存储股的定价逻辑,已从"业绩好不好"升级为"增速够不够快"。 AI内存牛市还稳吗?瑞银预测2026年存储行业总收入将达9920亿美元,2027年几乎翻番至1.76万亿美元,HBM是核心驱动力。但短期回调同样真实——截至7月底,AI存储龙头平均回撤约40%;7月SK海力士韩股最大回撤54%,三星电子42%,闪迪单月暴跌47%。超级周期的长期逻辑未破,但估值已跑在基本面之前,任何瑕疵都会被放大。 🏛️ 联储鹰派信号升温:弱就业压不住通胀焦虑 7月FOMC会议出现2016年以来首次三张方向一致的反对票——三位地区联储主席主张加息25个基点。票委卡什卡利甚至表示年内加息三次"并非不可能"。 弱就业能压住通胀吗?7月ADP新增就业仅4.4万人,创1月以来最弱。但薪资增速维持4.4%高位,ISM服务业PMI价格分项飙至70.3,为四个月最高——"就业弱、价格强"形成经典滞胀信号。市场对9月加息的概率仍维持在54.9%。 🚀 SpaceX解禁后反涨:利空出尽的经典剧本 8月6日,SpaceX首批9.115亿股限售股解禁,潜在释放市值约1000亿美元。此前市场普遍预期将触发抛售潮。 结果股价不跌反涨6.14%,收报114.92美元。周三13.6%的财报后暴跌已提前释放了解禁压力;新增卖盘被抄底资金和空头回补有效吸收。市场演绎了"利空出尽即利好"的经典剧本。不过警报未解除——8月20日另有3.19亿股可能解禁,9月预计再释出约7亿股。 💎 总结 闪迪用372%的增长换来暴跌,证明存储股的估值已跑到基本面之前;美联储在弱就业与高通胀之间左右为难,滞胀信号正在浮现;SpaceX用解禁日的逆势反涨,演绎了"利空出尽"的经典剧本。当业绩超预期已成标配,指引的每一分偏差都会被无限放大——旧逻辑正在崩塌,新定价权正在形成,而它惩罚的是所有"不够完美"的答案。#存储股财报后下挫,AI内存牛市还稳吗? #联储鹰派信号升温,弱就业能否压过通胀? #财报观察员:解禁后反涨,SpaceX后续怎么看? I don't think the latest U.S. jobs data can be read simply as “weak jobs = easier Fed.” July private payrolls increased by only 44K, well below the 75K consensus, while June was revised lower to 95K. But the details are more interesting. Services still added jobs while goods-producing industries lost them, and education and healthcare accounted for a large part of the gains. At the same time, the ISM services index remained expansionary at 54.1, while its employment component fell to 47.4. That creates a strange setup: Economic activity hasn't collapsed. Hiring is cooling. But inflation pressure hasn't disappeared either. Fed Governor Lisa Cook has already warned that inflation risks remain tilted upward, pointing to tariffs, energy and even the huge AI investment cycle as possible sources of price pressure. The Fed's July report also said inflation remains elevated relative to its 2% objective. That is why markets are still assigning meaningful probability to a September hike despite weaker hiring data. For crypto, I think this distinction matters. A weak payroll headline alone isn't necessarily bullish if wage pressure and inflation stay sticky. I’ll be watching the combination of payrolls + wages + unemployment + CPI, not one jobs number. The difficult scenario for risk assets isn't simply weak growth. It is weaker hiring without enough disinflation to give the Fed room to ease. #FedHawksVsWeakJobs $BTC $ETH $BICO #FedHawksVsWeakJobs #Alphabet25BBond What caught my attention with SpaceX was not the 911.5M-share unlock itself. It was how the market handled it. That amount is larger than the roughly 639M shares originally sold in the IPO, so on paper this was a serious increase in available supply. Normally, that creates a simple fear: insiders get liquidity, more shares hit the market, price comes under pressure. Instead, SpaceX jumped after the restriction expired. To me, that says part of the selling risk had already been priced before the actual event. The market spent days preparing for supply that did not arrive as aggressively as feared. But I think the bigger story starts now. SpaceX also reported $7.8B in quarterly revenue, around 90% higher YoY, while posting a $541M net loss. The uncomfortable number was spending: AI infrastructure investment reached roughly $15.8B as the company builds much deeper into compute. So the question is slowly changing. Before the unlock, investors were asking: Who will sell? Now they need to ask: How efficiently can SpaceX turn this enormous infrastructure spending into future cash flow? More lockup tranches are still coming, with around 40% of shares expected to become tradable by December. That keeps supply risk alive. The first unlock tested liquidity. The next phase tests execution. $SPCX $SNDK $BTC #SpaceXUnlockRebound #AIMemoryBullTest I said in round 14 that "only if Guang rebounds with 9 gains and 6 falls does it count as a confirmed rise," and at this moment, OKX went straight to 13 up and 2 down. The signal was here, but Fear was stuck at 29, BTC only +0.4%, and HFT, which had secretly dipped 21% yesterday, has now crashed at -19.69%—Guangdu is shouting for gains, but the mood is still scared out of its wits. BTC finally turned positive this hour, $64,957, 24h +0.41%, no more pretending to be dead. Funding +0.0053% slightly neutral up, OI 105,100 BTC steady as old as an old dog, bulls still haven't pulled out. The strongest evidence of capital flows is breadth: 13 rose and fell 2, a significant increase compared to the previous round of 8 gains and 7 losses. But volume did not keep up—total market trading volume remained flat at -3.3%, still characterized by "breadth leading and volume holding back" volume. What does this mean for BTC/ETH? Breadth moves first (money starts buying small coins), prices move later (Bitcoin just turned positive), exactly the 14 rounds of "volume moves first, breadth moves later": now the breadth moves, prices follow, and volume is holding back. Real review: My BICO long position is still alive (the +67.48% of the OKX leaderboard is still running at +67.48%, but started selling down at -2.49% in 1h), and I'm holding long ADA positions. Here's a framework I can take—broad explosion + big bing turning positive = short-term bull confirmation, but volume not amplified (flat at -3.3%), which means "breadth precedes volume," which is easy to fake breakout; Real market should wait for volume to rise above and fear of rebounding above 35. HFT from +21% to -19.69% is a living textbook: those who sneak away crash first, only those with broad stocks are reliable. Do you believe in breadth or fear this time? A13 rose 2 times and fell is just a bullish horn; B. No volume release is all fake moves and run C. Anyway, HFT has collapsed, so I'll just lie flat. Brothers, mark the letters in the comments, using you as a contrarian indicator reference (manual dog head). Crypto assets carry high risk.

SK Hynix's Q2 revenue was 79.32 trillion KRW, a year-on-year increase of 557%. However, SanDisk's stock plunged nearly 8% after the session. The culprit is the guidance—next quarter's median revenue was $10.55 billion, below the market expectation of $10.82 billion. The market's pricing logic for storage stocks has shifted from "whether the performance is good" to "whether the growth rate is fast enough." Is the AI memory bull market still stable? UBS forecasts that total storage industry revenue will reach $992 billion by 2026, and nearly double to $1.76 trillion by 2027, with HBM as the core driving force. But short-term pullbacks are equally real—as of the end of July, leading AI storage companies had an average drawdown of about 40%; In July, SK Hynix's Korean stock market saw a maximum drawdown of 54%, Samsung Electronics 42%, and SanDisk plunged 47% in a single month. The long-term logic of the supercycle remains unbroken, but valuations have already outpaced fundamentals, and any flaws will be magnified. 🏛️ Fed hawkish signals heat up: weak employment cannot suppress inflation anxiety The July FOMC meeting saw three unanimous opposing votes for the first time since 2016—three regional Fed chairs advocated for a 25 basis point rate hike. Voter Kashkari even said that raising interest rates three times within the year is "not impossible." Can weak employment suppress inflation? In July, ADP added only 44,000 jobs, the weakest since January. However, wage growth remained high at 4.4%, and the ISM Services PMI price sub-index surged to 70.3, the highest in four months—"weak employment, strong prices" signaled classic stagflation. The market's probability of a rate hike in September remains at 54.9%. 🚀 SpaceX rebounds after unlocking restrictions: a classic scenario where all negative news is released On August 6, SpaceX unlocked its first batch of 911.5 million restricted shares, potentially unlocking a market value of about $100 billion. Previously, the market generally expected a wave of selling to trigger a sell-off. As a result, the stock price rose 6.14% instead of falling, closing at $114.92. After Wednesday's 13.6% earnings report, the sharp drop has already released the pressure to lift the lockdown; New selling orders were effectively absorbed by bottom-fishing funds and short covering. The market has played out the classic scenario of "when the negative news is gone, good news follows." However, the alert has not been lifted—another 319 million shares may be unlocked on August 20, and about 700 million more shares are expected to be released in September. 💎 Summary SanDisk's 372% growth led to a plunge, proving that storage stock valuations have moved ahead of fundamentals; The Fed is torn between weak employment and high inflation, with stagflation signals emerging; SpaceX used the unlock-up day to reverse the trend, playing out the classic scenario of "all bad news being gone." When earnings beating expectations becomes standard, every point of guidance deviation is magnified infinitely—the old logic is collapsing, new pricing power is forming, and it punishes all the "imperfect" answers. #存储股财报后下挫, is the AI memory bull market still stable? #联储鹰派信号升温, can weak employment outpace inflation? #财报观察员: After the lock-up lifts, prices rebounded—what do you think about SpaceX's future? Alphabet raised its AI capital expenditure for 2026 to $205 billion by issuing $25 billion in bonds, and, combined with the loss of core technical talent, is pushing up bond yield premiums and suppressing risk appetite in the U.S. tech sector. The $115 billion oversubscription in the primary market confirmed the credit side's ability to support long-duration high-yield bonds, but the stock market priced in a single-day drop of 1.4% and a cumulative drop of over 5% to the risk of deteriorating free cash flow. Since early 2025, over $114 billion in bond financing and nearly $85 billion in equity financing have accelerated the company's capital structure toward high leverage, marking the first time since the IPO that a quarterly free cash flow turned negative. The core factors driving the current market are: pressure on forward free cash flow leading to higher discounted liquidity value levels, loss of core technical teams leading to reduced efficiency in converting computing power into revenue, and the term premium driven up by large bond issuances for tech stocks overall. If high computing power investment cannot keep pace with breakthroughs in model iteration, capital expenditure will directly translate into permanent erosion of net profit margins. The trigger for the upside scenario is that after the new data center is established in the first half of 2026, computing power can be quickly monetized, and the bond secondary market spread narrows to within 1.0 percentage points higher than government bonds. At this point, the key variable to watch is whether the cloud business marginal profit margin stabilizes again; the failure signal is whether capital expenditure will be revised up again in subsequent quarters or equity refinancing will dilute equity. Under this scenario, long positions will reprice around their infrastructure barriers. The trigger conditions for the downward scenario are diminishing marginal computing power output, and continued loss of key research teams to competitors, causing delays in the productization cycle. Variables to watch include the decline in institutional concentration in $GOOGL holdings and the widening of credit default swap spreads; the expiration signal indicates that core products are undergoing a technological iteration with absolute advantages. If this scenario takes effect, the market will revise its valuation downward for cyclical, capital-intensive companies. The failure condition for these polarization scenarios lies in a systemic shift in the macro interest rate environment, where the erosion of high borrowing costs on the balance sheet is offset by overall liquidity easing. When the average premium level of 10-year U.S. tech bonds shrinks sharply, the transmission chain of risk appetite will once again be dominated by valuation multiples rather than cash flow quality. The key variable to watch over the next seven days is the trend of Alphabet's $25 billion bond on the secondary market in terms of spreads, as well as the pace of institutional repositioning of $GOOGL positions in the block market. #西联稳定币卡落地, Visa Payment Scenarios Advance Further #Circle财报后押注Arc USDC Can Achieve New Growth? #CLARITY投票或延至9月, ethical differences remain unresolvedETH相对BTC开始抬头了,这个信号值得盯。 最近几天ETH/BTC比值在0.0295-0.0296附近稳住,甚至有小幅向上的迹象。ETH价格现在大概1900-1910区间,BTC在64300-64400晃。绝对值上看ETH涨跌幅度不大,但对BTC的相对强度在慢慢回来。 这不是突然爆发,而是七月里ETH已经明显跑赢过一轮:那个月ETH涨了大约20%出头,BTC只有个位数涨幅。比值从更低的位置慢慢抬起来,现在卡在这个位置反复测试。 关键点位直接说: • ETH/BTC如果能站稳并突破0.030,短期相对强势会更明确,下一目标看0.031-0.032。 • 跌破0.029下方,之前的相对走强可能要再磨一阵。 • ETH本身上方压力在1915-1920,过了看1950;下方支撑先看1835-1840,再破容易去1800附近。 为什么会开始走强? 核心还是供需和资金偏好在变。ETH交易所上的可流通筹码已经压到很低的位置,质押比例又拉到历史高位,真正能砸出来的量变少了。再加上带质押收益的产品(比如机构推的staked ETH基金)开始吸钱,资金不再只盯着“数字黄金”叙事。 BTC这边机构ETF规模大很多,但流入节奏最近没有之前那么猛。市场开始重新定价:BTC是底仓,ETH有真实用途(L2、稳定币结算、RWA这些还在跑)。一旦风险偏好稍稍回来,资金就会从BTC往ETH挪一点。 现在还谈不上全面alt季节,BTC主导地位依然很高。但ETH相对走强如果能持续,往往是资金开始向外扩散的前兆。接下来就看比值能不能有效站上0.030,以及ETH能不能带着量突破1920。 自己仓位自己控,别光看热闹Actually, I have always believed that the Federal Reserve is not as composed as the market imagines. Rate hikes seem more like a political performance before the midterm elections, while rate cuts are the already predetermined endgame — no matter how much the performance goes on, it can't change the inevitable conclusion of high interest rates coming to an end, which is also why I have been bullish all along. Looking at the recent situation in the crypto space, Bitcoin $BTC has been repeatedly testing around $64,000, Ethereum $ETH hovers around $1,900, and a weak ADP report once pushed BTC higher. However, once hawkish signals reemerged, BTC and ETH fell about 2.8% and 3.6% respectively last week, with net outflows from spot ETFs. ADP new jobs plunged to 44,000, less than half of last month, but PCE inflation remains high at 3.7%. Amid these conflicting data, Cook and Kashkari took turns calling for rate hikes, but everyone knows these tough words won't last long. The capital market votes with real money. On August 4, Nvidia and Microsoft each contributed about $700 billion in market value, pushing the Nasdaq up 2.13%; but as the probability of rate hikes rose, memory chip stocks plummeted on August 6, with Western Digital down 13%, SanDisk $SNDK down over 6%, and AI software stocks also sharply falling. Short-term hawkish rhetoric will continue, but once the midterm elections are over, high interest rates will have to come to an end. Debt pressure and economic slowdown make rate cuts not an option but an inevitability. Everyone is waiting for a turning point. $64,000 sideways torment: Why isn't the derivatives data lying this time? In recent days, Bitcoin has been fluctuating narrowly above $64,000, neither surging nor dropping, causing many short-term traders to panic, fearing that another bearish drop is about to trigger a major crash. But after I pulled out the CME futures-spot basis and exchange funding rates, my judgment was completely different. If you've been watching the market long enough, you'll know that real crashes often happen when the market is extremely excited and leverage is piling up. But now, derivatives indicators reveal a very healthy and counterintuitive signal: retail investors' high leverage has been almost completely washed out, and the current sideways movement is an extremely gentle "defoaming" process. This feeling is especially evident in my own account changes. When Bitcoin surged to a high point recently, the annualized funding rate on mainstream exchanges once exceeded 30%. At that time, my long positions were being "cut at a loss" by high holding costs, forcing me to proactively close half of my positions to lay low. In the past two days, the funding rate across the network has basically dropped to zero, and CME's annualized basis has fallen back to a healthy range of around 7%. This means that those currently buying at $64,000 are definitely not short-term leveraged longs who could be liquidated at any moment. So, who is actually supporting the buying demand now? The answer is institutional basis arbitrage. They buy spot Bitcoin and sell the same number of short positions in options or futures markets, earning this 7% risk-free annualized basis return. This type of arbitrage capital is not afraid of losses because their positions are fully hedged. As long as the future-spot price difference exists, they will continuously buy spot, providing the spot market with a very solid "invisible base." As long as this batch of hedge buying remains, relying solely on futures short sell-offs will make it difficult to create a bottomless pit below $64,000. Of course, this also means it's unlikely the market will see a sharp rally in the short term, because arbitrage isn't directional buying—they aren't responsible for pushing prices higher. The sideways grinding may continue for a while. My current strategy is simple: don't touch any contracts, and during the vacuum, buy spot in batches between $63,000 and $64,000 during the vacuum. If my judgment is wrong, I focus on whether the CME basis falls below 5%. If the basis shows an abnormally negative premium, it means arbitrage funds are collectively withdrawing, and I will not hesitate to withdraw from my defenses. #交易之声: Your experience deserves to be heard SanDisk and Western Digital's earnings far exceeded expectations, yet their stock prices plummeted. The market had previously set expectations too high, and the quarterly report guidance failed to meet these lofty hopes, prompting investors to take profits and flee.

The culprit is the guidance—next quarter's median revenue is $10.55 billion, below the market expectation of $10.82 billion. The market's pricing logic for storage stocks has shifted from "good performance" to "whether growth is fast enough." Is the AI memory bull market stable? UBS forecasts total storage industry revenue to reach $992 billion in 2026 and nearly double to $1.76 trillion by 2027, with HBM as the core driving force. But short-term corrections are equally real—as of the end of July, leading AI storage companies had an average drawdown of about 40%; In July, SK Hynix's Korean stock market saw a maximum drawdown of 54%, Samsung Electronics 42%, and SanDisk plunged 47% in a single month. The long-term logic of the supercycle has not been broken, but valuations have already outpaced fundamentals, and any flaws will be magnified. 🏛️ Fed hawkish signals heat up: weak employment cannot suppress inflation anxiety At the July FOMC meeting, three unanimous votes were cast against the same direction for the first time since 2016—three regional Fed chairs advocated for a 25 basis point rate hike. Voting member Kashkari even said that raising rates three times within the year is "not impossible." Can weak employment suppress inflation? In July, ADP added only 44,000 new jobs, the weakest since January. However, wage growth remained high at 4.4%, and the ISM Services PMI price sub-index surged to 70.3, the highest in four months—"weak employment, strong prices" forms a classic stagflation signal. The market's probability of a rate hike in September remains at 54.9%. 🚀 SpaceX rebounds after unlocking restrictions: a classic scenario where all negative news is released On August 6, SpaceX unlocked its first batch of 911.5 million restricted shares, potentially releasing a market value of about $100 billion. Previously, the market generally expected a wave of sell-offs. As a result, the stock price did not fall but instead rose 6.14%, closing at $114.92. After Wednesday's 13.6% earnings report, the plunge had already released the pressure to lift the lock; New selling orders were effectively absorbed by bottom-fishing funds and short covering. The market played out the classic scenario of "when all the negative news is gone, good news." However, the alarm was not lifted—another 319 million shares may be unlocked on August 20, and about 700 million more are expected to be released in September. 💎 Summary SanDisk traded 372% growth for a plunge, proving that storage stock valuations have moved ahead of fundamentals; The Fed is torn between weak employment and high inflation, with stagflation signals emerging; SpaceX played out the classic scenario of "all negative news being exhausted" by rallying against the trend on the unlocked day. When earnings beating expectations becomes standard, every point of guidance deviation is magnified infinitely—the old logic is collapsing, new pricing power is forming, and it punishes all the "not perfect" answers. #存储股财报后下挫, is the AI memory bull market still stable? #联储鹰派信号升温, can weak employment outpace inflation? #财报观察员: After the lock-up lifts, prices rebounded—what do you think about SpaceX's future? Why does weak employment still not stop the Federal Reserve from raising interest rates? Nonfarm payrolls keep cooling down: Who does the Fed listen to? Recently, macroeconomic contradictions have become prominent: internal divisions within the Federal Reserve are rare, with three officials directly calling for a 25bp rate hike in July; However, ADP and nonfarm payroll data have weakened consecutively, and employment has cooled significantly. The core lies in the Federal Reserve's rule: 2% inflation is the top priority. Currently, core PCE remains stuck above 3.4%, and with climate conditions pushing up oil prices, the risk of an inflation rebound is a hawkish confidence. Weak employment can only limit "large, consecutive rate hikes," making it difficult to force rate cuts, at most keeping high rates longer. Current situation: Inflation remains stubborn, with the probability of a rate hike in September rising above 63%; Employment continues to weaken, with clear signals of economic cooldown. Weak employment cannot dampen rate hike expectations, and macro liquidity is unlikely to loosen risk assets in the short term. #联储鹰派信号升温, can weak employment outpace inflation? #存储股财报后下挫,AI内存牛市还稳吗? 存储股这轮财报季,画风极其统一——业绩爆表,股价暴跌。昨晚西数跌超13%,闪迪跌近7%,SK海力士ADR跌约5%。业绩亮到刺眼,市场反应却冷酷到底。 先看数字有多炸。 闪迪Q4营收89.65亿,同比暴增372%,EPS 39.25美元碾压预期,毛利率84.6%,还批了140亿回购。数据中心收入29.8亿,环比翻倍,同比暴增1298%。西部数据营收37.47亿,同比增44%,EPS 3.56美元超预期。 然后股价崩了。 导火索是指引“不够好”。闪迪下季营收指引中值105.5亿,市场预期111.48亿。差了不到6%,股价崩了9%。西部数据指引中值41亿其实高于预期的40.6亿,照样跌超15%。业绩超预期已经不够了,市场要的是“持续惊艳”。 核心矛盾:预期跑得太快了。 闪迪年内涨幅超460%,西数约200%。股价已经把“AI存储超级周期”的剧本提前定价了。高盛说得直接——“市场预期已过度领先于现实”。存储价格Q1涨90%、Q2涨60%、Q3/Q4预计还能涨20%以上。绝对值还在涨,但涨速在放缓。当股价已经定价了“持续加速”的完美剧本时,任何回归正常的信号都会被解读成见顶前兆。 那AI内存牛市到底还稳不稳? 花旗认为供应链库存处于低水平,供需充足率已从70%降至50%,产能不能满足订单。野村也说AI驱动的结构性需求增长尚未见顶。大摩判断这只是一次“健康重置”,AI把周期顶部推迟了数季度。基本面确实还没崩,HBM产能2027年基本售罄,长协锁定了未来几年的收入。 但几个预警信号已经亮了。毛利率指引环比持平,被解读成“见顶”。DRAM和NAND库存小幅回升。消费端需求被AI挤压,闪迪消费业务环比跌了32%。市场现在交易的不是“还能涨多少”,是“斜率什么时候变平”。 存储这轮行情和英伟达2024年很像——毛利率从40%多拉到80%附近,股价涨了十倍,然后横盘了一年多。预期顶先到,基本面顶后到。 这位置我不会梭哈抄底,也不会空仓踏空。用网格在区间里做波段,等基本面顶被数据确认或者被证伪之后再说。在信号落地之前,重仓押注方向是拿本金赌一个还没出现的信号。The numbers are impressive. But the stock price is dropping first. Folks, AI storage isn't lacking demand; it's just that expectations ran too fast. As of 07:59 Beijing time, $SNDK is at $1258.58, down 6.79% intraday. Q4 revenue was $8.965 billion, up 51% quarter-over-quarter; data center revenue was $2.977 billion, doubling quarter-over-quarter. But about two-thirds of the growth came from price increases. Demand is still there, and the bull market hasn't been killed by a single down day. Ordinary investors should wait: can the price hikes continue, and can data center growth support the valuation? Don't rush to bottom-fish yet~ #StorageStocksDropAfterEarnings, #IsTheAIStorageBullMarketStillStable?, #USStockEarnings, #AIStorage, #TechForOrdinaryPeople#AIMemoryBullTest #FedHawksVsWeakJobs #SpaceXUnlockRebound BTC and ETH options contracts worth over $2.4 billion will settle today at 16:00, marking the largest concentrated expiration event in recent times. According to Greeks.live data, 32,000 BTC options expire with a nominal value of $2.06 billion, a put/call ratio of only 0.26, and a maximum pain point of $64,000. During the same period, 177,000 ETH options expired, with a nominal value of $340 million, a put/call ratio of 0.77, and a maximum pain point of $1,900. Key signal interpretation: First, extremely low PCR exposure structural fragility. BTC's Put/Call Ratio remains at a low of 0.26, indicating extremely low put option open interest and a lack of systemic downside protection in the market. This also indicates that the market is not adequately prepared for downside risks, and if a negative shock occurs, it may trigger asymmetric fluctuations. If the market direction turns downward, positions lacking hedging protection will face greater adjustment pressure. Second, the maximum pain point is 64,000, which highly overlaps with spot prices. BTC fluctuated around $64,000 this week and has traded in this range for over two months. The biggest pain point closely overlaps with the spot price, meaning option sellers have the incentive to keep prices near this area before delivery, maximizing counterparty losses and reducing their own losses. This partly explains why the price has been sideways this week. Third, above 65K, a heavy resistance zone is formed. The price range above $65,000 represents the weight of the early rebound#存储股财报后下挫, is the AI memory bull market still stable? If employment hasn't collapsed, the Fed won't rush to cut rates; But as employment cools, the pressure to continue raising rates is less. Looking at the latest US employment data together: in July, ADP private sector increased by only 44,000 (expected about 75,000), showing a clear slowdown in recruitment; but initial jobless claims were 199,000, below 200,000 for three consecutive weeks, indicating companies have not laid off large-scale layoffs. This is a typical example of "low hiring, low layoffs"—hiring is harder to recruit, but no one is firing squid in bulk. This situation is most comfortable for the Fed: jobs are too strong→ inflation can't be suppressed→ so rate hikes are needed; If jobs collapse→ recession fears→ the market will crash first. Currently stuck in the middle, the economy hasn't slowed down, inflationary pressure has no excuse to tighten further, and rates are likely to hold steady depending on future CPI and nonfarm payrolls. For BTC, this is a relatively friendly awkward zone. With rate hike expectations suppressed by ADP, US Treasury yields and the dollar weaken in the short term, liquidity pressures ease, and both BTC and gold are likely to benefit—you see, gold has already reacted first, and $BTC is just basking in the heat around 64,000. The next three lines are to watch: Friday July Nonfarm: Consensus is about 83,000, below 80,000→ rate cut trading continues, BTC is likely to follow; above 100,000→ rate hike calls are coming back and putting pressure on the market. U.S. 10-year Treasury yield: Whether it can fall from around 4.69% will determine whether the valuation recovery of non-yielding assets can be sustained. Market Swings on September Rate Pricing: The probability of a rate hike in September is still around 55%, and nonfarms will be reassessed once released. In short: what the market wants now is not bad news, but "just the right bad news"—employment is weaker, but not so weak that it goes into recession. In that case, both BTC and gold have a chance; If the data suddenly deteriorates, the logic will shift from "interest rate cut good" to "economic collapse," which is not just handing out money but risking lives. (The above is a macro review and not an order order. Control your contract position and stop loss accordingly.)Western Union connects stablecoins, Solana, and Visa payment scenarios, which is more practical than many public chain narratives. It's not just about issuing another stablecoin. What Western Union really wants to do is integrate on-chain dollars into its original remittance network: user receipts, offline cashing, merchant spending, and cross-border settlement, all trying to avoid being stuck by bank business days and correspondent bank chains. What stablecoins have always lacked is not on-chain transfer speed, but the "last mile." You can receive funds in 3 seconds, but if the other party can't get local cash, swipe a card, or pass compliance, then it's just a number in a wallet. Western Union's strength lies in its existing global outlets and risk control network, now using stablecoins as a backend settlement layer. The real breakthrough is not shouting Web3, but making users not need to know they are using blockchain at all. #西联稳定币卡落地,Visa支付场景再推进 #AIMemoryBullTest #FedHawksVsWeakJobs #SpaceXUnlockRebound $ETH I've been grinding around 1900 these past two days, really annoying. Sometimes it crashes to 1890, feels like it's about to break; Sometimes it pulls back again, making the crowd uncomfortable and too crowded. But the more I think about it, the more I feel that the biggest problem ETH faces right now might not be whether it can reach 2000. The question is whether it will continue to pay "interest" to so many people in the future. The staking yield scheme the community is currently arguing about, to put it bluntly: as more people stake, fewer new ETH will be issued. Those who hold coins without staking are naturally happy, finally not having to watch themselves slowly dilute. But on the other hand, those who rely on stETH, restaking and lending cycles to earn returns are having a tough time. If the returns are thin, the whole gameplay will have to be recalculated. It's like a piece of cake that was originally enough for everyone to share, but then more and more people joined. Some say you should cut less to save the cake; Some people say you cut less first, so it must be my part. Even the Ethereum Foundation itself has used 70,000 ETH for native staking, indicating that ETH is no longer just a token that rises on the rise; it has begun to act like an interest-bearing asset. But here's the problem: ETH wants more people willing to hold it, But you can't let everyone go pledge; They want to reduce additional issuance but can't force out the smaller nodes first. So tonight's macro data will determine how to move in the short term, But what truly affects ETH's future valuation may be the debate over "who will actually get the profits." 1900 Can you hold onto what matters? But who can take the ETH yield may be more important. $ETH #存储股财报后下挫, is the AI memory bull market still stable? #联储鹰派信号升温, can weak employment outpace inflation? #财报观察员: After the rebound after the lock-up, what is SpaceX's outlook?

Tonight at 8:30, the non-farm payroll data will be released. The market has been sideways around 64,750 all day, indicating the market is waiting for this outcome. Let's first look at a few key numbers. Nonfarm Payroll Outlook: What the Market Is Expecting. The US July Nonfarm Payroll report will be released tonight at 20:30. Market consensus expects about 80,000 new jobs, up from 57,000 in June. Economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal have more precise expectations, at about 83,000. The unemployment rate is expected to remain unchanged at 4.2%, and average hourly earnings are expected to increase 0.3% month-on-month and 3.5% year-on-year. Economists' forecast ranges are very wide, ranging from 10,000 to 140,000. Vanguard Group expects employment growth to be only 18,000, while some optimistic institutions expect it to exceed 100,000. This divergence itself indicates that tonight's data carries great uncertainty. Wednesday's ADP data already serves as a warning to the market. The ADP private employment data released on Wednesday added only 44,000, far below the expected 75,000, marking the lowest increase this year. ADP has always been regarded as a leading indicator for nonfarm payrolls, and this time the gap in data is very obvious. Some analysts point out that if the combined data from the previous two months is revised down by 80,000 yuan, what the market sees is not a mild cooldown, but rather a rapid deterioration in employment trends. At the same time, initial jobless claims remain low, indicating that companies are slow down hiring and unwilling to lay off existing staff. ADP weakened but initial claims remained stable, showing a clear divergence between hot and cold in the job market. What the market is really waiting for is non-farm payrolls to break this deadlock.

Saying the bad news is over. It’s not. Not yet. Just because you have chips doesn’t mean you have to dump them on day one. You can sell on day two. Day three. Be patient. That one line “I think so” trapped a ton of people above 120. Don’t let hopium do that to you again. There are 910 million shares sitting in that unlock. It only takes one negative headline for that to snowball into real panic selling. I called the exit at 105. We missed it by 0.3. Now we’re at 114 and I’m not rushing. Not everyone is a diamond hand. Most people are just watching, waiting for a reason to sell. So watch the report. Watch the unlock. If both come through clean, the upside is what matters. If one thing breaks, this gets fast. #SpaceXUnlockRebound $BICO #FedHawksVsWeakJobs #AIMemoryBullTest $ETH Just as the Hormuz Agreement began to take shape, it was blocked by triple shackles, and oil prices rebounded by more than 5% in three days—Old Mo tells you that geopolitical risk premiums don't dissipate so easily Guys, last week I thought the strait was about to open, but this Monday it's all nonsense. The agreement has indeed made progress, but it is a different matter from "opening up navigation." On August 5, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Baghae announced that Iran and Oman had reached an agreement on the proposed geographic coordinates for the Strait of Hormuz, and the joint statement had entered the final review stage. Deputy Foreign Minister Ghalibabadi said that the original northern and southern shipping lanes would be closed, and a new temporary route passing through Iranian territorial waters would be activated, expected to last 2 to 4 months. But Iran has also made the point a dead end—the strait will not be reopened immediately. Iranian parliamentary official Gudarzi made it clear that negotiations are only conducted between Iran and Afghanistan, and the U.S. is not allowed to participate. A Revolutionary Guard source was even more direct: as long as the U.S. continues to intervene and threatens Iran militarily, an agreement cannot be reached. U.S. sanctions, insurance clauses, and international law are all triple shackles at the same time. Industry sources revealed that the proposed agreement would give Tehran control over ships entering the Gulf via the Strait of Hormuz. However, any toll measures would trigger major compliance issues—the U.S. has imposed sanctions on Iran's "Persian Gulf Authority," which operates the waterway. The U.S. Treasury Department also prohibits American personnel from accepting services related to "safe passage" provided by the Iranian government. The insurance side is even tougher. At the end of July, Lloyd's Market Association in London introduced a new clause: if a ship pays any toll passing through the Strait of Hormuz, insurance coverage will be terminated. An insurance industry insider described shipping companies as facing a typical "dilemma"—Iran charges fees, and insurance rules prohibit underwriting ships that have already paid fees. Iran is asking for 5% to 7% of the value of the goods, Oman is negotiating about 3%, and the US insists on restoring pre-war free navigation. Payments may trigger sanctions, and payment may immediately lapse war risks—even if a political agreement is reached, it may not materialize. The market is repricing risk. Brent crude fell from $79.36 on August 4 due to ceasefire expectations, but rebounded to $83.48 on August 7 due to traffic disputes and safety incidents. WTI rebounded from $75.77 to $78.84 over the same period. Brent has regained the key technical level of $83 per barrel. After an explosion near Qeshm Island, Iran claimed to have attacked "hostile targets" within the strait. The Houthis launched large-scale attacks against pro-Saudi forces in Yemen, threatening Saudi oil tankers, the Gulf of Aden, and Red Sea shipping routes. Geopolitical risks in the Middle East are expanding from a single strait blockade to a large-scale regional threat covering energy production, refining, and transportation nodes. Back to the big cake ether. BTC's latest price is around 64,355, down 0.67% in 24 hours. ETH is at 1905, down 0.40%. The rebound in oil prices means inflation expectations are heating up again, putting pressure on risk asset valuations. But rising geopolitical risks are also driving up safe-haven demand—the market is being tugged back and forth between these two forces. Key levels: BTC resistance above 64,800-65,000, support below 64,100-64,200, a break below 63,800. ETH resistance above 1920-1950, support below 1850-1870. Old Mo said a few honest words. Last week, the market was betting on "immediate opening of the strait and immediate collapse of oil prices," but this week it turns out to be all illusions. Iran wants control, the U.S. wants free passage, and insurance companies refuse to provide insurance—the three demands have become a deadlock. Brent's rally from 79 to 83 is a correction of the mispricing of "agreement equals navigation." For Bitcoin, the oil price rebound → rising inflation expectations→ the Fed is reluctant to loosen easily, and this chain remains. But rising geopolitical risks are also driving up demand for safe-haven assets. Which of these two forces will prevail depends on how CPI moves on August 12. Trade-wise: Before the direction is clear, lighten your position, wait for signals, and avoid betting on direction. If Bitcoin pulls back to 64,100-64,200 and stabilizes, you can try a light position, set a stop loss below 63,800, targeting 64,800-65,000. If volume drops below 63,800 or even breaks below 63,500, hold fast and don't bottom-fish. ETH should also stabilize and buy long at 1850-1870, stop loss below 1,830, target 1,920-1,950.

Linking token creation directly to Uniswap v4 pools, with a 0.25% LP fee and part of fees automatically added to liquidity, gives that thesis a concrete structure. The early figures are notable: v4 volume reached roughly $73.6M on day one, while Hayden Adams said cumulative pools.trade volume exceeded $150M by Aug 6. My measured read is that UNI gains a credible growth narrative only if this activity proves durable. Lower costs may deepen liquidity, but pressure on creator economics could limit adoption.

SK Hynix's Q2 revenue was 79.32 trillion KRW, a year-on-year surge of 557%. However, SanDisk's stock plunged nearly 8% after hours. The culprit is the guidance—next quarter's median revenue is $10.55 billion, below the market expectation of $10.82 billion. The market's pricing logic for storage stocks has shifted from "good performance" to "whether growth is fast enough." Is the AI memory bull market stable? UBS forecasts total storage industry revenue to reach $992 billion in 2026 and nearly double to $1.76 trillion by 2027, with HBM as the core driving force. But short-term corrections are equally real—as of the end of July, leading AI storage companies had an average drawdown of about 40%; In July, SK Hynix's Korean stock market saw a maximum drawdown of 54%, Samsung Electronics 42%, and SanDisk plunged 47% in a single month. The long-term logic of the supercycle has not been broken, but valuations have already outpaced fundamentals, and any flaws will be magnified. 🏛️ Fed hawkish signals heat up: weak employment cannot suppress inflation anxiety At the July FOMC meeting, three unanimous votes were cast against the same direction for the first time since 2016—three regional Fed chairs advocated for a 25 basis point rate hike. Voting member Kashkari even said that raising rates three times within the year is "not impossible." Can weak employment suppress inflation? In July, ADP added only 44,000 new jobs, the weakest since January. However, wage growth remained high at 4.4%, and the ISM Services PMI price sub-index surged to 70.3, the highest in four months—"weak employment, strong prices" forms a classic stagflation signal. The market's probability of a rate hike in September remains at 54.9%. 🚀 SpaceX rebounds after unlocking restrictions: a classic scenario where all negative news is released On August 6, SpaceX unlocked its first batch of 911.5 million restricted shares, potentially releasing a market value of about $100 billion. Previously, the market generally expected a wave of sell-offs. As a result, the stock price did not fall but instead rose 6.14%, closing at $114.92. After Wednesday's 13.6% earnings report, the plunge had already released the pressure to lift the lock; New selling orders were effectively absorbed by bottom-fishing funds and short covering. The market played out the classic scenario of "when all the negative news is gone, good news." However, the alarm was not lifted—another 319 million shares may be unlocked on August 20, and about 700 million more are expected to be released in September. 💎 Summary SanDisk traded 372% growth for a plunge, proving that storage stock valuations have moved ahead of fundamentals; The Fed is torn between weak employment and high inflation, with stagflation signals emerging; SpaceX played out the classic scenario of "all negative news being exhausted" by rallying against the trend on the unlocked day. When earnings beating expectations becomes standard, every point of guidance deviation is magnified infinitely—the old logic is collapsing, new pricing power is forming, and it punishes all the "not perfect" answers. #存储股财报后下挫, is the AI memory bull market still stable? #联储鹰派信号升温, can weak employment outpace inflation? #财报观察员: After the lock-up lifts, prices rebounded—what do you think about SpaceX's future? Google borrowed $25 billion, AI experts ran four projects—this race has finally revealed its true colors Yesterday, Alphabet did something. Issuing bonds totaling $25 billion. It is divided into 10 tiers, ranging from 2 to 40 years, with the longest yield 1.3 percentage points higher than government bonds. And then? $115 billion in orders poured in. More than four times over. While the market was frenzied over AI bonds, Alphabet's stock price fell 1.4% that day. The money was borrowed, but the market didn't buy it. You might ask: $25 billion, is that a lot? A lot. But compared to Google's AI bill, it's not enough. At the end of July, Alphabet raised its 2026 capital expenditure forecast to a maximum of $205 billion. That's more than double the 2025 project. What is the cost? This is Google's first single-quarter free cash flow turning negative since its 2004 IPO. All the money earned was thrown in, and it wasn't enough. So they issued bonds. 25 billion. Not enough? Issue more. Since early 2025, Alphabet has raised over $114 billion in bonds. In the first half of this year alone, debt financing exceeded $50 billion, and nearly $85 billion worth of stock was issued. One company, over two years, borrowed $200 billion. All of it was poured into AI. But that's not even the most heartbreaking part. On the very day the bond was issued, another event was also happening. Google's Chief Scientist Jeff Dean, after 27 years at the company, has passed away. He left together with three top researchers. He founded an AI company called Discovery Loop. On the same day, DeepMind's CEO and Nobel laureate Hassabis stepped down from daily management and became chairman and chief scientist. Nominally, he was promoted, but in reality—the researcher was invited out of the decision-making table. Google split its AI division into three paths: those chasing products stayed, those who wanted the future stepped aside, and those seeking freedom left. After the news broke, Alphabet's stock price dropped more than 5% in two days. When these two events are put together, the picture becomes clear— On one side is 25 billion yuan in bonds, on the other is the departure of four AI experts. On one hand, people are spending lavishly to build data centers, buy computing power, and stack models; on the other, core talent is leaving. Money rushes inward, people move out. What does this indicate? The AI race has officially entered its second phase. What is the first stage? Technological breakthroughs. Whoever makes a good model first wins. Google has Transformer, DeepMind, and Jeff Dean—the world's leading technology reserves. But in the second stage, it's all about two things: capital and talent. Money, Alphabet has—205 billion in capital expenditure, 114 billion in bond financing, and cash on hand. But what about talent? Over the past six months, Google's AI talent has been leaving in batches. Gemini's co-lead went to OpenAI, and core researchers went to Anthropic. Now even Jeff Dean is gone. Who will use the computing power center you spent 200 billion to build? You spend 205 billion training large models; who will iterate it? AI competition: Will the future rely more on technological breakthroughs or capital investment? My answer is—neither. The future depends on a positive cycle of "money keeps people, others spend money." Money can buy computing power, but computing power needs to be adjusted by people. People can contribute technology, but technology needs to be built up. If one is missing, it's a vicious cycle. Alphabet's current situation is—there's enough money, but people are running. Jeff Dean is neither the first nor the last. When a company's AI strategy becomes "just throw money in," what will those who truly understand AI think? "My value is not on your balance sheet." $25 billion can buy servers, but not 27 years of technological faith. $205 billion can build computing power, but can't build the next Transformer. $GOOGL $MSFT $AMZN #谷歌母公司发债250亿美元, pressure to invest in AI is heating up Breaking: Russia beats the US to it. 🇷🇺 Putin has officially signed Russia's first comprehensive cryptocurrency regulatory law. Key points: • Ordinary investors can buy cryptocurrency through licensed institutions (up to about $3,700 per year) • Qualified investors have no limit • Exchanges must be licensed, meet capital requirements, and be regulated • Cryptocurrency payments are still banned domestically in Russia but allowed for cross-border settlements • Main provisions will take effect on September 1, 2026. My view: This is not Russia embracing Crypto, but rather starting to recognize Crypto as an asset, not a currency. What’s really worth noting is the last point—allowing cross-border settlements. Against the backdrop of US dollar settlements increasingly affected by geopolitical factors, cryptocurrency is gradually becoming another settlement tool for international trade, not just a retail speculation target. Even more interestingly, Russia has completed legislation while the US CLARITY Act is still stuck in the Senate. If more countries establish compliance frameworks, the valuation logic of Crypto will slowly shift from "speculative asset" to "global financial infrastructure." My judgment: This is a long-term positive. The short-term impact is limited, but in the coming years, the real beneficiary may not be altcoins, but $BTC. #俄罗斯加密监管法9月生效,交易与支付边界明确 Tonight's Non-Farm Agricultural Prospect Analysis (Released at 20:30) The market expects 80,000 new nonfarm payrolls in July, up from 57,000 previously, with an unemployment rate of 4.2% and an average hourly wage of 0.3% month-on-month. The leading ADP small nonfarm payrolls were only 44,000, far below expectations, laying the groundwork for this weakening in the nonfarm payrolls. However, the Fed is currently focusing on inflation; even if employment cools, it does not mean an immediate rate cut. Three scenario simulations 1. Nonfarm payrolls are significantly stronger than expected (> 100,000, wages rise) Employment is booming, high interest rates are expected to persist longer, and US dollar and US Treasury yields rebounded. BTC and US tech stocks are under pressure, gold is experiencing a short-term pullback, and the market is trading hawkish expectations again. 2. Data falls within the expected range of 60,000-100,000 (in line with expectations) The tug-of-war between bulls and bears will not lead to a one-sided rally. The market is fluctuating repeatedly; the key is to watch the wage and unemployment rate subcategories, awaiting guidance from subsequent inflation data. 3. Nonfarm payrolls weaken significantly (<50,000) Employment cooled further, expectations for rate cuts rose, and the US dollar and Treasury yields retreated, which benefited gold and provided momentum for a rebound in BTC and risk assets. BTC is already weak at the minor levels, with key support below 63,500-63,000, and the daily core bottom at 62,500-62,000. Nonfarm payrolls tend to amplify volatility, and as soon as data comes out, algorithms sweep the market. Don't chase the first sharp rise or fall immediately; wait 5-15 minutes for the capital to digest before looking at the real direction. Always control your position size at nonfarm payrolls and don't heavily bet on the outcome.

In contrast, upside implied volatility has dropped to a historic low of 23%, indicating that traders did not anticipate a strong rebound. This reflects weak bullish expectations rather than heightened fears of further declines $BTC The Korean stock index opened higher and surged in early trading, but rebounded after a sharp drop of over 4% the previous day, reaching as high as 6,415 points, looking poised for recovery. As a result, foreign investors immediately dumped their shares, causing the market to plunge all the way to a low of 6158 points. By the close, it barely recovered some of its losses, and the market ended down 0.6%. This week marks the seventh consecutive week of decline, with overall market confidence being particularly weak. The rebound is mostly a getaway, with no long-term funds entering the market. SK Hynix closed down 4.88%, becoming the main culprit dragging down the entire Korean market. Trigger for the price plunge: Rumors suggest that Nvidia's new AI chip will reduce the use of high-end HBM memory. SK Hynix is a core HBM supplier, and the market is directly concerned about shrinking high-end storage orders. Combined with the previous night's weak earnings guidance in the US stock market SanDisk and the collective plunge in the storage sector, capital panic selling occurred. Contrast: Samsung Electronics bucked the trend with a slight close, shifting funds from high-end storage stocks like SK Hynix to heavyweight safe-haven stocks like Samsung. Foreign investors sold over 60 billion RMB throughout the day, still buying in the morning session, but within the first hour of the session, they immediately reversed and crashed the market; Only retail investors and local institutions bought at the bottom with modest buying, completely unable to withstand foreign capital selling, and the rebound was abruptly abrupt. South Korea's storage giant SK Hynix plunged again, which will continue to suppress sentiment on SanDisk and Micron stocks overnight. Yesterday, SanDisk plunged sharply due to weakening earnings expectations, and today SK Hynix is selling again. The storage sector is unlikely to quickly stop falling in the short term, and bearish sentiment continues. In the early session, it seemed like a rebound was about to stabilize, but negative news + foreign capital fleeing directly shattered the market. Memory chips remain the hardest-hit area, and SK Hynix broke downward, continuing to put pressure on US storage stocks.SOL — Over 1 billion on-chain transactions, price flat! SOL is trading at $73.
