Score9/10Day / week +6.0% / +10.1%New business Meta Compute: selling surplus AI compute and modelsIn-house silicon Iris chip ships September, ~14GW targeted next yearYTD Flipped positive
Technicals — Up 6.0% on 1.9x volume to $669.21, +10.1% for the week, clearing both the 50- and 200-day in two sessions and flipping YTD positive. RSI 66.3 is warm, not extreme; the $700 round number and $740 prior-high zone are staged targets, with gap support at $640.
Fundamentals — Meta Compute reprices 'excess capex' as 'cloud revenue optionality': Wolfe Research models ~20% EPS upside per gigawatt of cloud capacity. The Iris chip ships in September targeting ~14GW next year, and the Muse Spark/Image model suite lands across the ad stack — for the first time, ads and compute form a twin-engine narrative.
News — Shares rose 6% on announcement day, turning positive for the year, with WSB mentions exploding a second day (57→240→sustained). Wolfe backed the new story with an $800 target, and the market began re-marking its capex through the AVGO/ORCL compute-valuation lens.

Holding: narrative upgrade, dual-average breakout and the YTD flip give triple confirmation. Stop raised from $590 to $620 (under the gap's lower rim) to lock the re-rating gain; a gap-fill below $620 before late-July earnings would mean the market isn't paying for the new story.

+8.28%07-04“Two days ago it was ceding the mic to MU and SKHY; then META said '14 gigawatts' and the mic came right back — in the compute arms race it's always the arms dealer. Above the 50-day, the repair trade shifts from defense to offense”
Technicals — Up 4.0% to $210.96, reclaiming the 50-day ($209.20) on volume — a 7% week completing the two-stage repair from 200-day defense to 50-day recovery. RSI 57 is healthy; the $220 May gap is next resistance, beyond which the prior-high retrace opens.
Fundamentals — META's Meta Compute reveal is a stealth tailwind: within the 14GW target, in-house Iris is supplementary — GPUs remain the bulk buy. The bear logic of 'customer silicon = peak demand' just got contradicted by 'customers expanding both capacity and purchases.' With H200 China access on top, both demand-side fears dulled within a week.
News — A 7% week led the trillion-dollar club as WSB rank recovered. Memory stole the SKHY-week spotlight, but Friday's flows reaffirmed: in a compute expansion cycle, GPUs are still the biggest line item.

Score7/10RSI(14) 49.1Day move -1.2%SKHY debut +13% close at $168, opened higher and fadedStop $880 (under the 50-day at $899), unchanged a fourth day
Technicals — Down 1.2% to $979.30 in a low-volume consolidation (0.6x rvol) as SKHY's debut siphoned flows — a third coiling attempt below $1,000. The 50-day ($899) trend support is unthreatened, RSI 49 neutral, and the pattern remains a high flag.
Fundamentals — SKHY's +13% debut close above offer confirms the memory complex's public-market pricing; the 5.5x-versus-6.66x forward gap showed no convergence pressure — day-one buyers chose to lift the whole sector's anchor instead. No new fundamental variables; the HBM shortage narrative is intact.

Score6/10Day / two-day -9.4% / -31%RSI(14) 26.5Validation Yesterday's 'day one is never the bottom' — confirmed by another -9.4%Relative volume 2.7x
Technicals — Down 9.4% to $58.25, -31% in two days; RSI 26.5 is deeply oversold, yet 2.7x volume says the hand-off is far from done. The $55–57 shelf (the 2025 base) is next support, with every average dangling near $76 — any bounce below $70 is an escape hatch, not a trend.
Fundamentals — A newsless day-two decline is institutions systematically de-risking: after the target-cut wave (Jefferies/BofA to $90), risk-model and index-rebalance selling has only begun queueing. The approved-product floor has fundamental logic near $50, but the market is only subtracting right now.

Score6/10Day move +5.0% (from +12.6% intraday)Regulatory milestone OCC approved a national trust bankNew partner Nomura: instant USDC-yen FX settlement by 2027Overhang Compass Point target slashed to $55 (Stripe threat)
Technicals — Up 5.0% to $66.14 after fading from +12.6% — supply above the 20-day ($72.30) is heavy. RSI 38.9 is soft, price sits 8% off 52-week lows, every average points down, and there's no right-side structure.
Fundamentals — The OCC trust-bank approval lets it self-custody reserves and offer institutional digital-asset custody — real moat material; the Nomura tie-up opens Japanese FX settlement. But Stripe's Open USD attacks the issuance layer head-on, ending the exclusivity of float income — Compass Point's $55 target prices exactly that.
News — The spike-and-fade candle put the bull-bear split on the tape: the license and Nomura are real, and so is Stripe. At -18% YTD and 30% off highs, the market is currently weighting the threat heavier.
