The central tensions in U.S. stocks this week remain inflation, interest rates, and valuation pressure on AI tech stocks.
Sunday futures fell before rebounding, while Nasdaq futures remain weak. This Tuesday, watch CPI; on Friday, watch PPI. Strong employment data earlier had the market worrying again about a resurgence in inflation, and expectations for a December rate hike have risen. Interest rate pressure may continue to weigh on high-valuation tech stocks.
Meanwhile, new developments are emerging across the AI supply chain. Anthropic has reportedly spent $3.4 billion on gas-fired power generation equipment, suggesting that the AI race has expanded from a scramble for GPUs to a scramble for electricity. After Democrats won both chambers of Congress, investigations involving Trump, Musk, and related crypto investments could also add to market uncertainty. There are also unverified rumors involving Nvidia management, which should not be treated as established fact when trading.
AI tech stocks are oversold, and a rebound may be taking shape
NVDA has yet to show clear signs of a bottom. The key is whether it can regain its leadership strength during a rebound. AMD, MU, and MRVL have fallen sharply recently, creating the potential for short-term mean reversion, but declining 20-day and 50-day moving averages may still act as resistance. For AMD in particular, watch the moving-average resistance around 527–546.
INTC, DELL, STX, and SNDK may also see an oversold bounce, but their prior price action has already deteriorated. Even a sustained rebound would not necessarily mean the trend is about to reverse.
Although CRWV is in a low-price area worth watching, it faces substantial debt pressure, making both the risks and potential rewards high. Its historical upside should not simply be treated as a future price target.
By comparison, AVGO's relative strength during the pullback is more worth watching. MRNA and LLY have also shown some resilience, suggesting that capital has not fully left the market but is instead looking for sectors with greater staying power.
RKLB's long-term prospects are worth watching, but it remains in a downtrend. Don't rush to buy the dip simply because you are bullish on the company.
A sharp mean-reversion rally could certainly take place this week, but being oversold does not mean a stock has bottomed, and a rebound does not mean a reversal.
Pay close attention to whether NVDA can lead tech stocks higher again, whether QQQ can post a sustained follow-through rally, and how interest rate expectations shift after the CPI and PPI releases.
What really deserves attention is not the stock that has fallen the most, but the one that leads the way when the market rebounds and continues to attract investor interest. First confirm that money is flowing back in, then consider entering—don't treat oversold conditions as a reason to buy the dip.
