$NVDA US chip stocks collapsed again tonight. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell 5 points, with AMD down more than 8%, NVIDIA down more than 7%, and Intel down nearly 4%.
How to put itโthis wave of chip stocks has already gained a lot from the start of the year until now, and their valuations have been stuck in that range. Now the market is starting to reprice: funds are pulling out of the high-valuation AI theme and chasing traditional sectors that previously hadnโt risen much.
AMD and NVIDIA are the absolute core of this AI rally. When they fall, the entire semiconductor sector has to wobble with them. In the short term, this kind of adjustment may not be over yetโafter all, the stocks ran up too fast earlier and the chips need more thorough rotation. But over the long run, the AI long-term story is still intact; the market just needs time to digest the valuations.
For me, the decline in chip stocks is more of an observation windowโafter the capital flows out, where will it go? That often reveals the marketโs next main theme. Also, tonight the probability that the Fed will keep the July interest rate unchanged is 62.1%; rate-cut expectations are still there, but the pace is not as fast.
The market is repricingโjust be patient and wait.
