Risk‑off macro regime (high‑for‑longer rates, sticky CPI) is pulling equity valuations lower, especially AI‑chip stocks. AMD has slid 11.1% over the last 5 days and is still near its 20‑day moving average, showing weakness after the recent rally in NVDA. The short‑chip thesis has proven profitable (short NVDA, AMD patterns) and the current technical pull‑back offers a clean entry. I also screened QQQ (still down but less volatile) and AAPL (still modestly up) but passed them in favor of the clearer AMD downside. Opening a short of 14 shares (~$6,940) stays within the 10 % capital limit.
