L3Harris abruptly replaces CEO after internal investigation, LHX shares fall about 4%

🛡️ L3Harris confirmed that Christopher Kubasik stepped down as Chairman and CEO effective immediately following an independent investigation into a violation of the company’s Code of Conduct. The company stressed that the matter was unrelated to financial reporting, internal controls, customers, or business operations.

👤 Sam Mehta was appointed President and CEO. Choosing an internal executive who previously oversaw businesses accounting for most of the company’s revenue helps reduce concerns over operational disruption.

📉 LHX shares fell roughly 3–4% following the announcement, reflecting governance concerns without indicating that investors are pricing in a broader systemic issue.

📊 L3Harris also reaffirmed its full-year 2026 guidance. The stock’s next move will likely depend on whether operations remain stable and whether any additional negative details emerge from the investigation.

$DOGE – Liquidation Map (7 Days) – Current Price 0.0704

🔎 The 7-day liquidation map shows roughly $85 million in short liquidations above the current price, exceeding approximately $75 million in long liquidations below. The liquidity structure therefore leans modestly to the upside, although major downside clusters also sit relatively close to price.

📈 Above the market, short-liquidation liquidity begins building around 0.0708–0.0714 and remains elevated across 0.0720–0.0732. Notable clusters sit near 0.0714 and 0.0726–0.0732. A break above 0.0708 would increase the probability of an extension toward 0.0714–0.0720.

📉 Below the market, long-liquidation liquidity is heavily concentrated around 0.0690–0.0684, with the strongest cluster near 0.0684–0.0687. Additional downside liquidity remains dense across 0.0678–0.0672. Losing 0.0690 would increase the probability of a sweep toward 0.0687–0.0684.

🧭 The near-term setup is relatively balanced but modestly favors the upside because total short-liquidation exposure is larger. A break above 0.0708 would bring 0.0714–0.0720 into focus, while losing 0.0690 would strengthen the downside long-sweep scenario toward 0.0687–0.0684.

USD weakens as markets sharply reduce expectations for a September Fed rate hike

💵 The US dollar remained under pressure as the probability of a Fed rate hike in September fell to around 30–31%, down from roughly 50–55% last week, pushing the DXY toward its lowest level since early June.

📈 EUR/USD climbed to around 1.1595–1.1614, its highest level in about two months, while AUD and NZD reached roughly 0.7105 and 0.5910 respectively, both near 10-week highs.

📊 The move was driven mainly by softer-than-expected US economic data, highlighted by a 0.6% decline in July retail sales, alongside earlier signs of easing labor market and inflation pressures.

⚖️ The shift toward expectations that the Fed will keep rates unchanged is supporting non-USD currencies and risk assets. However, elevated oil prices and geopolitical risks could revive inflation concerns and limit further dollar weakness.

🔎 The 7-day liquidation map shows roughly $480–490 million in short liquidations above the current price, modestly exceeding approximately $420–430 million in long liquidations below. The liquidity structure therefore leans slightly to the upside, while several major short-liquidation clusters also sit relatively close to price.

The strongest nearby cluster sits around $4,467.3, with additional liquidity remaining elevated toward $4,496.1–$4,524.9.

A breakout above $4,496.1 could shift focus toward $4,524.9, while losing $4,376.1 would strengthen the downside long-sweep scenario toward $4,347.3–$4,318.5.

Nasdaq gains support from AI and memory stocks as investors continue to favor technology shares

📈 U.S. stock futures were mixed on August 17, with Nasdaq 100 E-minis up around 0.52% and S&P 500 futures gaining 0.13%, while Dow futures slipped 0.17%. The divergence suggests risk appetite remains concentrated in growth stocks rather than broad-based across the market.

💾 Technology and semiconductor shares led the advance, with Micron rising around 3% and Broadcom gaining 1.1%, while Amazon and Alphabet also traded higher. Memory stocks continued to benefit from expectations that AI-related demand and computing infrastructure spending will remain strong.

🤖 Anthropic’s long-term revenue forecast acted as a sentiment catalyst, reinforcing expectations that the AI investment cycle still has room to expand. However, gains remain concentrated in tech, pointing to a selective rather than broad risk-on environment.

⚖️ In the near term, Nasdaq’s relative strength remains constructive, but its divergence from the Dow suggests the market has yet to establish a broad-based rally.

$SNDK – Liquidation Map (7 Days) – Current Price 1,797.6

🔎 The 7-day liquidation map shows roughly $270 million in long liquidations below the current price, far exceeding approximately $50 million in short liquidations above. The liquidity structure therefore leans strongly to the downside, although several notable upside clusters could become targets if price recovers.

📉 Below the market, nearby long-liquidation liquidity is concentrated around 1,784–1,757 before increasing sharply near 1,730 and 1,695. The 1,730 area stands out as one of the largest clusters on the map, while deeper liquidity remains dense around 1,600–1,582. Losing 1,784 would increase the probability of a sweep toward 1,757–1,730.

📈 Above the market, nearby short-liquidation liquidity remains relatively light around 1,800–1,830 before increasing sharply near 1,849. This is the strongest upside cluster, with additional liquidity appearing around 1,868–1,887. A break above 1,830 would bring 1,849 into focus as the key short-sweep target.

🧭 The near-term setup favors the downside because total long-liquidation exposure below is several times larger. Losing 1,784 would strengthen the probability of a move toward 1,757–1,730, while holding current levels and breaking 1,830 would shift attention toward a short-liquidation sweep across 1,849–1,868.

China’s July data signals further loss of economic momentum as consumption and investment weaken

📉 Industrial production rose 4.5% year-on-year in July, down from 5.3% in the previous month and below expectations. Retail sales increased just 0.6%, significantly missing the 1.5% forecast and highlighting continued weakness in domestic demand.

🏗️ Fixed-asset investment fell 6.7% in the first seven months of the year, while property investment dropped 19.2%. The urban unemployment rate also increased to 5.2%, adding to signs of broader economic pressure.

💻 High-tech investment remained a relative bright spot with 5.0% growth, underscoring the widening divergence between strategic industries and the rest of the economy.

📊 Weaker-than-expected data could weigh on the CNY, China-sensitive equities and some industrial commodities, while increasing expectations for additional policy support from Beijing.

🔎 The 7-day liquidation map shows nearly $100 million in long liquidations below the current price, far exceeding roughly $30 million in short liquidations above.

📈 Above the market, short-liquidation liquidity begins building around 59.40–59.82 and remains elevated across 60.24–60.66. Notable clusters sit near 59.82, 60.24 and 60.66. Liquidity density decreases noticeably beyond 61.08. A break above 59.82 would bring 60.24–60.66 into focus.

$XRP – Liquidation Map (7 Days) – Current Price 1.001

🔎 The 7-day liquidation map shows nearly $300 million in short liquidations above the current price, significantly exceeding roughly $190 million in long liquidations below. The liquidity structure therefore leans clearly to the upside, while several major short-liquidation clusters also sit relatively close to price.

📈 Above the market, short-liquidation liquidity begins building immediately around 1.008–1.020 and is heavily concentrated across 1.012–1.020, with 1.012 standing out as the strongest nearby cluster. Further liquidity remains elevated across 1.026–1.044, particularly near 1.032 and 1.044. A break above 1.008 would increase the probability of a sweep toward 1.012–1.020.

🧭 The higher-probability scenario is an initial move toward 1.008–1.020 because total upside liquidity is larger and the nearby clusters are substantial. A breakout above 1.020 could shift focus toward 1.026–1.044, while losing 0.994 would strengthen the downside long-sweep scenario toward 0.988–0.982.
