Nvidia sold off last week, below its buy point and the 50-day line. It was a key contributor to Thursday's ugly market reversal. But, while it's definitely damaged, it's not broken like many tech leaders. Taiwan Semi, Broadcom are similar. 5/

Bitcoin, seen as a possible culprit for stock market woes, continue to bounce from Friday's lows over the weekend. But it's regaining just a small fraction of its sell-off since early October. 2/

The stock market suffered big, damaging losses last week, with the major indexes tumbling below their 50-day/10-week lines. Many tech leaders showed similar damage. Friday's bounce was nice, but investors need to see a lot more than that. 1/

Nvidia pump and dump was a surprise, but it shouldn't have been. It's the fifth straight time that $NVDA initially rallied, then pared gains/reversed lower that day and/or next day ... usually with several days/weeks of declines. 2/2

The major indexes reclaimed their 50-day lines early Thursday as Nvidia initially jumped, but then reversed sharply lower. The Nasdaq and S&P 500 undercut their Oct. 10 lows. Bitcoin (IBIT ETF here) tumbled to a fresh seven-month low.

It's still early, but the Tesla FSD tracker - the closest thing to "real" FSD data - is signaling a notable improvement with v14. So far, out of 3K miles tracked, there have been no critical disengagements. At some point we'll get some, but it's a great start. 1/ teslafsdtracker.com

The stock market dived Friday on Trump's tariff threats. Investors should have cut some exposure, and ready to do more if the selling continues.

Is the market pullback over? Indexes found support at their 21-day line and many growth names rallied well off lows. But stocks have fallen for 3 days. What will be "obvious" next week isn't right now.

Getting older is now America's main employment driver.
The U.S. economy has lost 142,200 jobs over the last four months excluding health care & social assistance.
In the four months to February, before tariffs kicked in, the U.S. added 523,100 jobs ex health care/social assistance.

The Apple product event and inflation reports headline this week. But pay attention to Rubrik earnings. RBRK made a solid move Friday but below some early entries. The cybersecurity stock has had a slew of short-lived buy signals. Tuesday night's earnings could be the catalyst - but which way? 6/

Robinhood, AppLovin and Emcor will join the S&P 500 before the Sept. 22 open, S&P Global said Friday night. Robinhood and AppLovin had been snubbed multiple times. HOOD is set to reclaim its 50-day, perhaps offer an early entry. EME could be near an early entry. APP is near record highs. 5/

The major indexes are at the top of recent ranges - most obvious on the Nasdaq. Sideways action is normal. It's letting stocks set up bases/handles/pullback. But it also lures investors in with buy signals that often fizzle (and then sometimes revive again). But you never when that'll change. 2/

The $7,500 U.S. EV tax credit still expires Sept. 30, but new IRS guidelines make that more of a soft deadline. That gives Tesla and other automakers a little more time to rack up electric vehicle sales before demand falls off a cliff.

Tesla's "rough" comment may speed up analysts' estimate-cutting going forward.
It's frankly ludicrous that analysts have Q4 estimates higher than Q3 - given the end of the IRA credits on Sept. 30.
Should see estimates for Q4-Q2 come down substantially. 2/2
