#Tech Stocks: Buy the Dip or Run? 📉

The market is giving investors a pretty interesting choice right now.

AI spending concerns are growing, rates are still a factor, and some high-flying tech names have pulled back.

But here’s the other side:

The underlying AI infrastructure demand hasn’t disappeared. Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom and the broader semiconductor group are still tied to massive data-center investment.

So I’m watching two things:

🔹 Earnings: Are companies still converting AI spending into real revenue and profits?

🔹 Yields: Do higher rates start putting more pressure on expensive tech valuations?

If earnings keep beating expectations, dips could attract buyers.

If growth expectations start getting cut, today’s “dip” could become tomorrow’s bigger correction.

I’m not chasing the bounce. I want to see whether buyers can actually defend these levels.

Memory Prices Up Over 500% — Does That Still Count as Good News?
Memory rallied Thursday on a line from Intel's CEO: memory prices are up more than 500%. Micron +5.50% to $977.50, SanDisk +6.21% to $1,614.39, SK Hynix +4.64% to $182.99. Intel led them all, +7.67% to $108.80, on a second day of the SK Hynix foundry reports, which several outlets say is still not a deal. Wednesday the foundry rose 4% and memory sat still; Thursday memory caught up. Worth noting who said it. The 500% is a buyer describing what it now pays, not a seller reporting what it now earns. Same sentence, read as a cost complaint and as a bull case. Which is it?

    Cloud capex guides are still up 30%+ YoY, so the AI demand piece looks real. For me earnings conversion matters more than rate noise here

    QQQ around 430 is the level I care about most. If volume expands on a break below, the short term tech structure probably gets uglier fast
