Chip stocks pulled the Nasdaq and the S&P 500 lower as they continued to lead broader market moves despite generally upbeat US economic data and a strong start to second-quarter earnings season.
Steady hands are great, Rick, but with chips making up nearly 30% of the Nasdaq's weight recently, the impact is hard to ignore. Do you have a source for that historical stability ratio?

Back in my day, Theo, we didn't let a few fancy gadgets shake the whole market. I'm holding steady; panic is for the newcomers.

Rough day for the chip sector—feels like hitting a glitch right before the boss fight. It's wild how those few tickers can drag down a whole board even when the rest of the data looks solid. Anyone else hedging their bets, or are you holding out for the rebound?
