Meta's EPS May Be Misleading: Q2 Must First Exclude Last Quarter's $8.03 Billion Tax Benefit
Meta will release its Q2 2026 earnings after the U.S. market closes on July 29. Caution is needed when looking at EPS this quarter because last quarter had a significant comparison base distortion: Q1 recognized an $8.03 billion income tax benefit, partially offsetting a one-time non-cash tax expense in Q3 2025.
Q1 official net income was $26.773 billion, with diluted EPS of $10.44, representing year-over-year increases of 61% and 62%, respectively. However, Meta also clearly disclosed that without the aforementioned tax benefit, diluted EPS would be $3.13 lower. Therefore, Q2 EPS should not be directly compared to the previous quarter's reported EPS, nor should a decline in EPS be automatically interpreted as a weakening core business. A more reasonable approach is to first examine operating profit, then normalized tax rates and non-operating items.
Regarding the operating baseline, Q1 revenue was $56.311 billion, costs and expenses were $33.439 billion, operating profit was $22.872 billion, and operating margin was 41%. The company stated that the full-year 2026 total expenses are expected to remain between $162 billion and $169 billion, and unless the tax environment changes, the tax rate for the remaining quarters of 2026 is expected to be about 13% to 16%. These are management's forward-looking statements as of Q1; Q2 results and updated guidance are still pending official release.
After the earnings report, I will perform a three-layer breakdown. The first layer is advertising revenue, impressions, and pricing for the Family of Apps; the second layer is operating margin to confirm whether revenue growth is being offset by infrastructure and talent costs; the third layer is tax rate, investment gains/losses, and final EPS. This approach helps avoid being misled by one-time tax items.
Cash flow must also be considered. Q1 operating cash flow was $32.23 billion, free cash flow was $12.39 billion, and ending cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $81.18 billion. If Q2 operating profit remains stable but free cash flow shrinks significantly, it could simply be a timing change in capital expenditures or may indicate accelerated AI investment; this requires confirmation through financial statements and no premature conclusions should be drawn.
Beyond tax rates, changes in the fair value of investments may also affect non-operating income. If Q2 net income and operating profit move in opposite directions, the first step is not to speculate on the cause but to read the other income and income tax notes in the income statement. Only after confirming the nature of adjustment items is it appropriate to discuss normalized earnings.
Free cash flow should not be judged solely by its level. Timing of data center payments, financing lease principal, and equipment delivery can all cause quarterly fluctuations; therefore, I will list operating cash flow, capital expenditures, and free cash flow together, with company definitions noted. If the market reacts sharply to EPS fluctuations, the article will still anchor on official statements rather than replacing accounting explanations with price movements. All year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter comparisons will be separated to avoid errors caused by seasonality, and will be cross-checked with the company's latest 10-Q.The last defensive knight on the chessboard has withdrawn from the king's wing blockade—ETH validators' exit queue is zero. This is not a technical fix but a signal of the entire game's offensive and defensive shift.
What do you see? In September, 2.6 million ETH piled up at the exit channel, a crowded endgame battlefield where everyone wanting to withdraw had to queue passively. Now this gate is fully open, allowing immediate exit without waiting. On the surface, it looks like liquidity liberation, but in essence, the pioneers have completed their positional regrouping. Those who chose to abandon pieces during the 2.6M ETH congestion were either making a truly strategic retreat or were amateur players overwhelmed by fear. Now that the exit queue is zero, it means the most stubborn onlookers have finally digested their worries—there are no longer any dead pieces piled up on the board.
Meanwhile, a 43-day long queue has formed to enter, with about 2.48 million ETH waiting to be deployed. This is like your rook rapidly advancing into the opponent's half during the midgame; it looks risky on the surface, but a master’s calculation already covers the next twenty moves. Currently, 33.55% of ETH supply is staked, with 885,000 active validators earning an average annualized 2.64%—this yield isn’t a “good move” amid expectations of rate cuts and inflation battles, but for holders seeking secure continuity, it is the inevitable cost of a “solid rear wing.”
Interestingly, net staking flow has reversed from outflow to inflow. Forces are being redeployed in the endgame: positions that seemed trapped and losing during high-level layouts have actually placed the “rook” on the correct offensive path. $XMETA, as a token linked to US stocks, essentially represents synchronized tactics on another chessboard—a true player doesn’t just focus on the squares in front of them but observes the rhythm of the entire game.
When all exits are unobstructed yet no one rushes to leave, it means the game has entered a points-based endgame where no one dares to exchange lightly. The opponent thinks you are defending, but your pawns have silently crossed the river boundary. #ethexitqueuezero 承重墙还没浇就急着封顶？这座叫CLARITY Act的楼，蓝图上的荷载计算从一开始就漏掉了主梁。
看看这份“施工图”：Senate Majority Leader Thune的停工令相当于结构工程师在验收记录上签了“不合格——钢筋间距超差”，直接判定8月前无法合龙。而特朗普那笔14亿美金加密资产——那是地基下暗埋的市政管线，产权与红线矛盾，整块底板都失去了合规锚固。民主党与消费者团体指责伦理条款的强度不够，就像钢结构节点的焊缝只做了外观检查，没有探伤报告。DOJ独自掌握执法权？这是只给了单跨框架，没有冗余抗震墙。间接持有权属模糊？柱脚的铰接节点没有设计计算书。还有个2029年1月20日自动失效的条款——超过5年的临时支撑，风荷载下的稳定系数几乎归零。

This news about the Korean ETF gave me a similar feeling: the door is about to close, and trading has cooled down first.
In South Korea, single-stock leveraged ETF trading volume fell to 7.46 trillion won, a single-day decrease of 27%.
Honestly, this cooling isn't just a sudden compassion—it's that the rules are about to be implemented, and many people are pulling back their hands first.
After July 31, if you want to buy or add to this type of product, you must first have a cash margin of 30 million KRW.
This has kept many high-frequency users at bay, especially those who want to leverage whenever emotions get a hot spot.
I think this is a pretty direct warning to $BTC.
It's not that Korean ETFs will decide Bitcoin's price fluctuations; it's that once regulation moves, speculative enthusiasm can really change instantly.
Currently, $BTC spot is around 64,853, with almost no movement in 24 hours.
But contract trading volume is already 9.2 times that of spot trading. Just watching this kind of trading is tiring to me—calm on the surface, but full of sentiment pushing each other to bullish prices.
What's even more subtle is that this time South Korea is not directly cutting the deal, but raising the bar for entry.
This approach is most likely to affect those who hold firmly, but rather the most active and easily amplified capital fluctuations.
Last night, a close friend who works as a trader told me something I still remember: often, it's not the asset that dies first, but the strategy that tightens first.
This statement still fits the $BTC today; just because the price hasn't crashed doesn't mean the risk perception is comfortable.
So I'm just waiting and watching.
It's not that I'm going to go short so hard that I want to go all out; I just feel this position isn't right. Chasing long positions makes me feel insecure, and random shorting can easily get slapped in the face 😅
Wait for the market to calm down its own sentiment, and it's more reliable than I can stubbornly guess the direction.
The market is changing; what works today might be wrong tomorrow. #美联储周四凌晨公布利率决议 Storage plummeted tonight, others watch the spectacle, we watch the underlying logic
Tonight, US storage stocks collectively plunged, with leader SanDisk dropping from a pre-market gain of 3.6% to a decline of over 8% intraday; Micron, Western Digital, and SK Hynix all took hits.
The trigger is quite ironic: China's storage manufacturer ChangXin surged 466% on its first day of listing in Shanghai today, but the market instantly turned sour—new capacity is coming, will the price hike logic be smashed? Panic was triggered.
But the real reason for such a sharp drop lies beneath: SanDisk has risen about 500% this year, chips were loosened early, the narrative cracked, and profit-taking rushed out.
Does this script look familiar? It shares a core with the high-level tracks in the crypto world: high beta built on narrative and capital, when rising everyone benefits, but when supply + sentiment + profit-taking converge, the correction is faster than anyone else.
A fivefold rise is not a safety cushion, it’s a disaster zone—above are all floating profits eager to exit
#长鑫科技上市，全球存储竞争添变量 #美联储周四凌晨公布利率决议 $SNDK 把近 6 小时的消息捋了一遍，KOL 现在其实没有形成单边共识，更多是在 6.3 万—6.7 万美元这段做区间。偏多的一派守 6.37 万—6.42 万，止损普遍放在 6.31 万附近，看 6.63 万；偏空的一派等 6.52 万—6.65 万接空，6.7 万上方认错，目标先看 6.45 万、6.38 万。另有人盯着 6.55 万：站稳才看 6.8 万，6.8 万—7.1 万仍是重压。OKX 现货 BTC 约 6.484 万，刚好还在争夺区中间。
ETH 分歧反而小些，1940 附近多是试空思路，止损压在 1967—1980，先看 1894；不过 ETH/BTC 转强的讨论也在升温，所以更像短空、快进快出，不是重仓看崩。
我觉得这轮最值得抄的不是方向，而是操作：仓位放小，到利润就推保本，关键位失守马上认错。群里对美股科技股走弱的担心也很明显，BTC 暂时扛住，不代表风险消失。
#BTC #ETH #行情观察
仅作观点整理，不构成投资建议。Today, I entered SK Hynix in the opposite direction, reviewed the complete logic behind it, and discussed the understanding of valuation and opportunity boundaries in trading.
The biggest contradiction in the semiconductor sector right now is that the market constantly swings between cyclical and growth stock valuation frameworks: funds worry about the cyclical downward pressure from weak demand for mobile phones and PCs, while unable to deny the certainty of the AI computing power boom bringing certain incremental growth to HBM. The market is in extreme confrontation, with the market continuously fluctuating and plunging.
From a price perspective, individual stocks have sharply retreated from their stage highs, with valuations continuously suppressed amid panic sentiment; From the data, the expected PE for 2027 has already fallen back to the 3-4 times range, which is extremely low within the full storage cycle, and the safety margin at the price level is gradually emerging.
The core logic supporting my reverse positioning is inseparable from Jensen Huang's recent series of clear industry statements, as well as the epic long-term strategic cooperation between NVIDIA and SK Group: SK Hynix holds over half of the global HBM market share, NVIDIA's future high-end computing chip HBM capacity is locked in over 60% of its capacity, joint development of next-generation storage products, two-way procurement agreements lock in long-term orders, and all high-end capacity is sold out for the whole year and even next year.
The second quarter results have proven the logic, with operating profit increasing nearly 600% year-on-year. The high-margin AI storage business continues to expand, and the profit potential for the coming years is firmly locked in by long-term contract orders. Currently, the market is excessively amplifying the cyclical negative effects of traditional storage, selectively ignoring the core variables of AI reshaping the industry landscape, and offering deep discounts without reason. I believe this is the core reason for the current misjudgment.
But trading must always uphold boundaries and discipline. Even if the perception is that the cost-effectiveness is sufficient, it won't go all-in, adopting phased positioning to cope with subsequent volatility. The biggest taboo in trading is to relax screening criteria just because they see seemingly cheap opportunities, maintain respect for the market, and while positioning against the market, leave enough room for error, waiting for valuations to recover after divergences converge.If BTC and ETH do not enter a resonant upward movement, then the current so-called altcoin season may just be a localized liquidity game.
Has the market truly confirmed the arrival of altcoin season, or has it merely completed a capital redistribution among a few coins?
The current market structure presents a clear signal: BTC acts as a liquidity anchor in the 65,000-70,000 range, ETH maintains relative resilience at the institutional allocation level, but neither has formed a breakout rally leading the entire market expansion. On the altcoin side, funds have not spread evenly but are highly concentrated in a few coins such as $JELLYJELLY, $OPG, $SLX, $LAB, $BSB, $ALLO, $CHIP, which have seen significant short-term rallies. However, other coins in the same sector like $BEAT, $EDGE, $COAI, $TRUMP, $RAVE, $SPACE, $SOPH, $IP, $AVNT, $ZAMA, $OFC, $PIEVERSE, $VIRTUAL, $ACU, $H, $MEGA still lack sustained buying support.
- Factually: The current market shows liquidity concentration rather than liquidity diffusion. Coins like $MEME, $EDEN, $HUMA, $ZKP, $METIS show momentum but have not evolved into a full-market capital inflow.
- Structural changes: BTC as the liquidity anchor, ETH as the institutional barometer, SOL as a high beta asset, $TAO and $WLD representing the AI narrative, $HYPE as a risk appetite thermometer, $DOGE and $ZEC as retail sentiment indicators — the pricing power of these core assets has not been replaced by altcoins, and the market leadership structure remains unchanged.
- Pricing impact: At this stage, funds are withdrawing from mainstream coins and flowing into a few altcoins, reflecting a shift in risk appetite from defense to speculation, but this is not a sustainable incremental capital inflow model. The true confirmation signal of altcoin season should be: after BTC/ETH stabilize or break out, capital orderly overflows from core assets to second- and third-tier coins, rather than the current "few rising, most silent" scenario.
- Bullish path: If BTC effectively breaks through 72,000 and holds, and ETH simultaneously breaks through 3,500 with volume, it may trigger true liquidity diffusion, validating the altcoin season logic.
- Bearish risk: If BTC oscillates repeatedly or retests the 65,000-70,000 range, the current rise in a few altcoins will face liquidity exhaustion and profit-taking pressure, forming a local top.
- Failure condition: The market fails to form buy-side diffusion across the entire sector, with main funds still limited to BTC/ETH and a few narrative coins.
Conclusion: The current market is in a "pseudo altcoin season" phase, with liquidity concentrated rather than diffused. A true altcoin season requires BTC/ETH resonant upward movement as a premise. Before core assets give direction, the current rise in a few coins should be viewed as structural trading opportunities rather than trend allocation signals.
Risk warning: The high volatility of a few coins may lead to rapid pullbacks; do not equate localized momentum with a full-market trend.
$BTC $ETH $SOL $TAO $HYPE $DOGE $ZEC #MarketStructure #AltcoinSeason #RiskManagement今天A股见证了一个历史性时刻——长鑫科技科创板上市首日暴涨465%，收盘市值3.28万亿元，直接超越工商银行登顶A股总市值第一。 一家做存储芯片的公司，上市第一天就干掉了"宇宙行"，这件事本身就值得我们停下来认真想一想。 先说几个核心数据：发行价8.66元，收盘49元，全天成交1411亿创A股单日个股成交纪录。募资579亿，也是今年全球最大IPO之一。公司预计上半年营收1100-1200亿，净利润660-750亿，同比扭亏为盈。 但说实话，真正让我在意的不是这些数字，而是数字背后的三个信号。 第一个信号：半导体国产替代正在从"口号"变成"真金白银"。长鑫做的是DRAM，也就是我们手机、电脑、服务器里都离不开的内存芯片。这个市场长期以来被三星、SK海力士、美光三家垄断，中国企业占比极低。长鑫能走到上市这一步，说明它在技术上确实有了实质性突破，至少达到了能被资本市场认可的量产水平。308倍发行市盈率当然疯狂，但市场愿意给这个溢价，赌的是国产DRAM的替代空间。 第二个信号：A股的"定价权"正在发生转移。你们注意到没有，上市当天A股芯片半导体板块整体下跌——原因很朴素，基金经理们为了买入长鑫深夜突发！海力士跌破发行价，闪迪跌12%，长鑫上市美股存储暴跌 冰火两重天！长鑫上市A股科技全线走强，隔夜美股存储集体崩盘，SK海力士跌破发行价、闪迪大跌12%，三十余只半导体个股集体创新低。 核心导火索：长鑫募资扩产打破海外DRAM三寡头定价权，市场博弈通用存储供给过剩、涨价周期见顶。叠加美股存储前期暴涨获利盘集中兑现，恐慌扩散至算力、光电子全链条。 区分逻辑：海外杀周期估值，A股走国产替代设备材料主线，高位存储题材谨慎规避。#长鑫科技上市，全球存储竞争添变量 $SKHYNIX [strUSD absorbed $50 million before launch, with a positive narrative of real returns, but 12% is not risk-free interest]
Tori Finance's institutional-grade Delta neutral yield product strUSD raised $50 million in pre-deposit quotas seven days before its official launch, indicating strong market demand for "non-crypto internal circulation yields." In the short term, these products will bring new possibilities to the Real Yield and stablecoin yield tracks.
strUSD claims an annualized rate of about 12%. Its underlying layer does not rely on crypto leverage or funding rates, but rather on global carry trades in traditional finance: borrowing low-interest currencies, allocating high-interest rate markets, and then locking in dollar returns through foreign exchange hedging. After depositing USDC or USDT, users receive the synthetic dollar asset trUSD, which is staked to form strUSD and can be used in DeFi protocols such as Morpho, Pendle, and Curve.
But the market cannot interpret "Delta neutrality" as risk-free. Carry strategies still face risks such as foreign exchange hedging, counterparty, off-chain custody, liquidity, redemption, and regulatory enforcement; Smart contract audits, 24-hour upgrade delays, and on-chain balance sheet verification address some transparency and code risks, which cannot replace the quality of off-chain funds and strategy execution.
What is truly worth monitoring is not the full snatching of the $50 million quota, but whether the returns after product launch can be stably realized, whether collateral and off-chain assets can remain verifiable, and whether liquidity can operate normally during large-scale redemptions. The more yields resemble traditional finance, the more you need to judge them by the risk standards of traditional finance.
The above is just a personal opinion sharing and does not constitute any investment advice. The market changes rapidly, and trading profits and losses are borne by the buyer.现在是矿工们的寒冬，但市场还没真正感受到这股寒意的全部冲击。
你有没有想过，当矿工挖一枚比特币亏一万美金的时候，谁在替他们买单？
我看了一眼链上数据，全网算力已经跌到 908 EH/s，创下 2025 年的新低。这不是什么温和的调整，这是一场被迫的"关机潮"。S19 这类老机型在电价面前已经完全失去竞争力，矿工们不是在"犹豫要不要卖"，而是在"被迫清算"。
但更关键的是延迟释放的抛压。
-
矿工为了支付电费和设备贷款，会加速抛售库存里的 BTC，这会在现货端形成持续的卖单压力。
而算力下降本身是市场在自我出清——高成本矿工被淘汰，盈亏平衡线在逐步上移。
目前全网平均挖矿成本约 78,000 美元，远高于现货价格 65,000 美元。这意味着每一枚新产出的 BTC 都在制造亏损。
市场现在在交易什么？其实是在交易"矿工投降"这个叙事。但很多人只看到了算力下降=供应减少=利好，却忽略了另一个逻辑：矿工为了活下去，必须先卖出手里的存量币。这不是未来的抛压，这是正在发生的抛压。
风险在哪里？目前资金费率偏中性，没有出现极端多头拥挤，所以暂时没有多空挤压的导火索。但如果价格继续下行，跌破 62,000 美元，可能会触发矿工更大规模的清算，形成负反馈循环。
我的理解是：这个阶段不适合追涨，也不适合恐慌割肉，更适合观察算力是否继续下行、矿工钱包余额是否加速流出。这些才是真正的方向信号。
总结：矿工在流血，市场还没止血，别急着抄底也别急着做空，等清算潮过去再动手。

This Q2 earnings report is important because it presents two directions to the market simultaneously: deliveries and revenue have finally shown a clear recovery, but profits and cash flow have not returned alongside them. Quarterly revenue reached $28.24 billion, a 26% year-over-year increase, and deliveries of 480,126 units also rose 25% year-over-year, both setting new quarterly records. This combination indicates that demand has not cooled off, especially as the mainstay Model 3/Y continues to sustain scale; what investors care about is whether the sales rebound can prove that market acceptance is recovering after price cuts and product updates. However, the profit statement offers a more sober answer: GAAP net income was $1.11 billion, down 5% year-over-year, and adjusted earnings per share of $0.33 also fell short of the market expectation of about $0.50. Selling more but not earning more means that pricing, costs, and R&D investments for the new sales are squeezing profit conversion efficiency; for high-valuation companies, the market has never looked only at "volume," but at how much profit each increment of growth ultimately leaves behind. There are also bright spots in the business. Energy generation and storage revenue was $3.14 billion, up 13% year-over-year, with energy storage deployments of 13.5 GWh, indicating that Tesla is not just an automaker, and grid-side energy storage is becoming a more stable second growth curve.

Currently, there are two verifiable developments: on July 22, the Senate Banking Committee Minority Office released an analysis of the new text; the House Financial Services Committee had previously scheduled a hearing on July 17 regarding the bill. These indicate that the text and policy discussions are still progressing, but do not imply that "the bill has passed" or "a vote is certain this week." For ordinary users, what matters more are the subsequent official agendas, committee/full chamber voting records, amendments, and the final text. Do not take X's headline-style expectations as a timeline for implementation. Only when procedural documents appear can the discussion heat be considered to have moved into verifiable progress.Now, AI is reshaping the demand structure of the storage market.
Previously, storage mainly relied on mobile phones and PC consumer electronics.
Now, AI servers and high-performance computing are becoming the new growth engines.
Especially HBM (High Bandwidth Memory), which has become a key resource in AI chip competition.
Why is NVIDIA's GPU so powerful?
Besides computing power, it also relies on the support of high-speed storage.
Future storage competition will no longer be just about who has the largest capacity, but about who can master advanced processes, high-end products, and the AI supply chain.
The listing of ChangXin Technology also signifies that the global storage industry competition may enter a new stage:
From the past "three giants monopoly" gradually evolving into a multi-party game.
But the challenges are equally obvious.
The storage industry doesn't make money from stories, but from technology, scale, and the ability to navigate cycles.
Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix still hold huge technological advantages after decades of accumulation.
For ChangXin, going public is just the starting point; the real test is whether it can prove its competitiveness in the next storage cycle.
For investors, a core change needs to be seen:
The biggest opportunity in the AI era may not only be on the AI application side.
Chips behind computing power, advanced packaging, and storage may all become key links in the next round of industry competition.
But caution is also needed:
Every industrial revolution sees the market speculating on the future in advance. US AI hardware stocks plunged, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index down 5.02%. Nvidia's stock price fell 4.03%, TSMC's stock dropped 3.47%, Broadcom's stock dropped 2.02%, Superway Semiconductor's stock dropped 8.51%, ASML fell 7.3%, Intel fell 5.38%, Lam Research fell 7.45%, and ARM declined 3.02%. In storage stocks, Micron Technology fell 6.94%, SK Hynix dropped 9.39%, SanDisk dropped 13.79%, Western Digital fell 9.28%, Seagate Technology dropped 8.09%, and Kioxia ADR declined 6.65%.BEAT Price Upward and Liquidity Deviation: The current rally lacks continuity signals
Why does the market appear to be rising, but the actual pricing is more cautious than it appears?
Core facts of the original text: BEAT's price is rising, but trading volume remains stable, and open interest has retreated from its highs; Funds have not flowed in fully but are concentrated in a few tokens such as JELLYJELLY, OPG, SLX, LAB, BSB, ALLO, CHIP, MEME, EDEN, HUMA, ZKP, METIS, and others; At the same time, tokens like BEAT, EDGE, COAI, TRUMP, and RAVE lack buying momentum.
Market structure changes and expectations gap: The current rise in BEAT is the result of concentrated liquidity rather than systemic recovery. Funds are withdrawing from most altcoins and only selectively betting on specific small-cap stocks, which usually means risk appetite has not spread. The cooling of open interest combined with stable trading volume indicates that participants prefer to wait for confirmation rather than chase rallies. Under this structure, price increases tend to quickly reverse due to lack of follow-up buying.
Transmission logic: BTC and ETH, as underlying liquidity, have not shown significant movement, with institutional entry points remaining stable; SOL remains favored as a high-beta L1 but has not driven overall sentiment; HYPE remains neutral as a risk sentiment indicator, indicating the market has not entered a full-scale risk-taking mode. Local activity on the altcoin side cannot be transmitted to mainstream assets, with overall funds leaning toward defensive allocations.
Slightly bullish path and conditions: If BEAT can complete a volume reduction consolidation at the current price level and then break out on increased volume, while open interest moderately rebounds, it may trigger a short squeeze, driving the short-term trend to continue. The premise is that BTC or ETH do not experience a sharp correction and the funding rate remains neutral or slightly positive.
Risks and conditions of overly bullish: If BEAT's price continues to rise but open interest continues to fall, the rally will be dominated by spot buying but lacking derivatives leverage support, making it difficult for the trend to continue. A more dangerous scenario is BTC breaking below key support, causing overall liquidity contraction and rapid withdrawal of concentrated funds, triggering sharp pullbacks in stocks like BEAT.
Conclusion: BEAT's current trend is a technical rebound driven by concentrated liquidity, not a trend reversal signal. The condition for trend failure is that trading volume cannot be amplified or open interest continues to shrink. Next, focus should be on whether BEAT can see a volume increase confirmation within 24 hours, and whether BTC can maintain its current range. If neither holds, the current rally is more likely to be a short-term trap.
Risk warning: The market is in a low-liquidity environment, and price fluctuations may be amplified, so position management should be handled with greater caution.

⚠️ Risk Warning: This is only a market logic deduction and does not constitute any investment advice; the storage sector is highly volatile, and the early morning FOMC decision is the biggest short-term turning point. Strictly control positions and set stop losses.
Current Review: Continuous intraday decline, breaking below the 910 short-term watershed, with the storage sector collectively plunging; compared to SNDK SanDisk, MU is more strongly impacted by the narrative of ChangXin Technology's IPO (ChangXin mainly produces DRAM, directly competing with Micron).
I. Complete Characterization of This Round of Decline (Distinguishing the Trigger from the Underlying Logic)
1. Direct Trigger
A-share ChangXin Technology's STAR Market listing has led capital to price in future DRAM capacity expansion, causing market concerns about the loosening of the global DRAM oligopoly and a slowdown in the price increase slope of general DRAM.
Coupled with large short seller Michael Burry continuously increasing short positions on MU, reinforcing bearish sentiment; on the eve of the rate decision, capital preemptively cashes out crowded high positions, causing a cascade of selling.
2. Bullish Support Logic (Constraints on the Decline)
1. HBM constitutes a core moat
ChangXin's HBM is still at the sample stage and cannot enter the high-end AI storage supply chain in the short term; Micron has locked in long-term contracts with many cloud providers securing revenue and gross margin for the next 12–18 months, so short-term performance will not deteriorate rapidly.
2. Current NAND/HBM spot prices maintain an upward trend, and the industry's tight supply-demand pattern has not reversed in the short term.
3. Medium to long-term AI computing power continues to expand, and enterprise storage demand remains rigid.
3. Core Long-Term Bearish Logic (Sustained Market Pressure)
1. Cyclical stock trading rules: stock prices price in the peak of prosperity in advance, with capital speculating on increased storage supply after 2027, pressuring profit margins;
2. The stock price has risen significantly this year, with valuations fully reflecting optimistic expectations, worsening odds, and even slight negative news triggers concentrated profit-taking;
3. The DRAM sector faces direct impact from ChangXin's future capacity, increasing long-term competition pressure on general storage business;
4. High-valuation growth stocks are highly sensitive to US Treasury yields, and the Fed's hawkish bias continues to suppress valuations.
Key Distinction: The short-term adjustment is driven by sentiment and profit-taking, not an immediate fundamental deterioration; the adjustment magnitude depends on the Fed's speech and the degree to which capital strengthens expectations of a "cycle peak."
II. Key Price Levels (USD)
✅ Support (top-down)
First support 875 (intraday low platform)
Short-term first defense; holding this leads to low-level consolidation and bottoming.
Second support 840 (mid-term key support, near 60-day moving average)
A volume break below 840 fully opens the adjustment space, targeting 790.
⛔ Resistance (bottom-up)
First resistance 910 (original short-term watershed, resistance conversion level)
The first strong hurdle on the rebound, difficult to reclaim in one go short-term.
Second resistance 960–990 (dense trading and trapped zone)
Only a volume-backed close above 990 can repair the short-term downtrend.
III. Three Major Scenario Deductions (Short-term led by early morning FOMC)
Scenario 1: Fed speech dovish (best case)
Condition: Maintain rates, release forward rate cut expectations, US Treasury yields decline.
Trend: Stabilize and stop falling based on 875 support, start technical repair rebound; first challenge 910 resistance.
Important reminder: The rebound is a repair during adjustment; before stabilizing above 910, a bullish trend return cannot be confirmed.
Scenario 2: Fed neutral stance (base case)
Condition: Hold steady, neutral wording, maintain data-dependent tone.
Trend: Wide oscillation between 840–910, chip exchange, difficult to form a one-sided trend short-term; follow Philadelphia Semiconductor sector's repeated tug-of-war.
Scenario 3: Fed signals hawkish (risk case)
Condition: Retain possibility of rate hikes this year, US Treasury yields rise.
Trend: 875 support breaks, further test 840 key defense; storage sector adjustment cycle lengthens, simultaneously dragging down SNDK SanDisk.
IV. Medium to Long-Term Dimension Division
1. Short-term (1–5 trading days)
Selling pressure not fully cleared, sector sentiment fragile, prioritize trend-following, avoid blind heavy bottom-fishing; wait for volume contraction and sustained intraday support signals.
2. Mid-term (several weeks) two core observation indicators
① DRAM, HBM contract price trends; as long as the price increase trend continues, the fundamental bottom line is stable; if the price increase narrows continuously, valuations will remain under pressure;
② ChangXin HBM R&D and mass production progress, determining future competition pressure.
V. Key Market Tracking Signals
1. Highly correlated with SNDK SanDisk and Philadelphia Semiconductor SOX index; under normal conditions, MU volatility > SanDisk;
2. Volume: rebounds must be volume-backed; low-volume rebounds have poor sustainability;
3. US 10-year Treasury yield fluctuations directly affect storage sector valuations;
4. The gain or loss of 875 and 840 supports determines downside space.
VI. Trading Strategy Summary
1. Trend judgment: short-term uptrend broken, entering adjustment cycle, prohibit heavy counter-trend bottom-fishing;
2. Short-term operation: rebound near 910 faces resistance and stagnation, can trade short with stop loss above 935; on pullback to 875 stabilization and with macro sentiment support, only light positions for rebound speculation;
3. Core watershed: stabilizing above 910 = short-term sentiment repair; breaking below 875 = increased downside risk;
4. Risk control advice: early morning Fed decision volatility is extremely high; reduce leverage and compress positions before news release to prevent sharp two-way spikes.$XAU $CL 美伊周末突然停火，油价暴跌5%，黄金跳空高开40美金——但就在刚刚，金价冲上4116后迅速回落，又在4084反复试探。这波到底是地缘降温后的情绪反弹，还是4000美元铁底确认后的反转起点？

Subsequent comprehensive trend analysis
⚠️ Risk warning: This is only a market logic deduction and does not constitute any investment advice; the storage sector is highly volatile, and the early morning FOMC decision is the biggest short-term inflection point, strictly control position size.
Current situation: Intraday volume surge with waterfall decline, effectively breaking below the previous key platform at 1410, bottoming near 1226. The short-term uptrend has declared a phase termination, shifting from a bullish trend to a consolidation adjustment pattern.
I. Core characterization of this decline (distinguishing the trigger from the underlying logic)
1. Direct trigger: Impact from Changxin Technology's IPO sentiment
Changxin mainly produces DRAM, SanDisk mainly NAND flash memory; the two have no direct product competition.
The decline is a non-discriminatory panic contagion in the storage sector, with capital beginning to trade on expectations of loosening oligopoly in long-term storage and a slowdown in the cycle price increase slope.
⚠️ Key point: Sentiment shock ≠ fundamental bearishness; do not over-amplify this logic linearly. The real medium- to long-term threat to SanDisk is Yangtze Memory's NAND capacity expansion, not Changxin.
2. Underlying core causes (foundation of the decline)
① Crowded trade profit-taking: Huge gains this year, AI storage has become the most crowded bullish sector in the market; once negative narratives appear, bulls collectively take profits causing multiple sell-offs;
② Market expectation shift: Capital begins to speculate on NAND price increase slowing in Q4, with rising expectations that "peak earnings correspond to peak stock price" for cyclical stocks;
③ Pre-meeting risk aversion: Capital reduces high-valuation growth stock positions in advance to avoid hawkish Fed speech risk;
④ Technical breakdown resonance: Breaking below the 1410 key support triggered programmed stop-loss selling pressure, further amplifying the decline.
3. Bullish support logic (constraints on continued sharp decline)
✅ AI inference demand continues to drive enterprise SSD demand, with long-term revenue locked by long-term contracts;
✅ NAND supply and demand remain tight in the short term, spot prices have not turned downward;
✅ SanDisk and Kioxia joint venture wafer fab capacity planning is restrained, no severe short-term oversupply expected.
II. Key price levels (USD)
Support (top-down)
First support 1225~1230 (intraday low)
Short-term first defense zone; if held, will enter low-level consolidation and bottoming;
Second support 1180 (mid-term strong support)
A volume break below this level fully opens adjustment space, target range near 1100.
Resistance (bottom-up)
First resistance 1325 (recent dense trading area)
First rebound hurdle, difficult to recover in one go in the short term;
Second resistance 1410 (original trend watershed, now strong resistance)
Only with volume and a close above 1410 can the trend be repaired.
III. Three major scenario simulations (short term dominated by Fed decision)
Scenario 1: Fed dovish (best case)
Condition: Powell’s early morning remarks are mild, dispelling rate hike expectations, US Treasury yields decline.
Trend: Stop falling relying on 1225 support, start technical repair rebound; first test 1325 resistance.
Limitation: The rebound is a repair within adjustment; before stabilizing above 1410, the trend cannot be judged as returning bullish.
Scenario 2: Fed neutral (base case)
Condition: Maintain rates unchanged, speech neither hawkish nor dovish, maintain wait-and-see tone.
Trend: Wide-range consolidation between 1225–1325, full chip exchange; short-term lacks sustained one-way momentum, repeated tug-of-war.
Scenario 3: Fed hawkish (risk case)
Condition: Signal rate hikes, US Treasury yields rise.
Trend: 1225 support fails, further probes 1180 support; storage sector continues adjustment, lengthening adjustment cycle.
IV. Medium- and long-term dimension distinction (short-term trading and holding strategies separated)
1. Short term (1~5 trading days)
Market driven by macro sentiment, sector sentiment fragile, selling pressure not fully cleared.
Operation principle: Do not rush to heavy left-side bottom fishing; wait for stabilization signals (volume contraction stop-fall, continuous intraday support).
2. Mid term (weeks dimension) two major observation indicators
① NAND contract price trend: As long as prices maintain an upward trend, the fundamental bottom line remains; if price increase narrows continuously, valuation will remain under pressure;
② AI enterprise SSD order fulfillment, this is SanDisk’s core alpha distinguishing it from traditional consumer storage.
V. Key market tracking signals
1. Philadelphia Semiconductor SOX, Micron MU linkage strength, storage sector rises and falls together;
2. Volume: rebound must be on volume; low-volume rebounds have very poor sustainability;
3. US 10-year Treasury yield volatility, high-valuation storage stocks are highly sensitive to interest rates;
4. 1225 support gain or loss determines short-term downside space.
VI. Trading strategy summary
1. Trend judgment: Uptrend phase broken, entering adjustment cycle, follow the trend first, avoid blind left-side bottom fishing;
2. Short term: Rebound near 1325 stagnates, can play short positions with stop loss above 1355; if retesting 1225 stabilizes and macro conditions cooperate, can lightly play rebound;
3. Core watershed: Holding above 1410 = bullish repair; breaking below 1225 = downside space opens;
4. Risk control advice: FOMC volatility is huge early morning, reduce leverage and compress positions before news release to avoid two-way spike risk.Coinone's recent listing pace has significantly slowed, with only three tokens listed this year: RLUSD, EDGEX, and HYPE.
Before mid-Q1 2026, to catch up with leading players Upbit and Bithumb, it launched a large number of various altcoins; However, since rumors of OKX acquiring Coinone shares surfaced, the number of tokens listed plummeted, shifting to a compliant streamlined approach.
Interestingly, Upbit, which had been cautious about using cryptocurrencies, has instead replicated Coinone's early strategy by intensively launching new altcoins, with Bithumb following suit. The listing strategies of South Korea's three major exchanges have completely reversed, and this structural change deserves special attention.Just now, $LA suddenly surged upward, and then many people are getting restless, maybe wanting to short it. But I believe we can't short it now; the risks of shorting it now are simply too great. It might indeed fall, but I don't want to take that risk—the risk far outweighs the profits I can make. Shorting $LA now feels like licking blood on the edge; I don't think I'm willing to do this. —————————————————— Let's take a look at its recent contract data. It can be seen that after 10 a.m. last night, its contract long-short ratio suddenly rose, but its open interest did not change much. I think there should have been a lot of bears turning into bulls last night. Then, it just started to skyrocket. As it surges, its contract open interest is rapidly increasing, while the long-short ratio of contracts is rapidly declining. This shows that many bears are shorting it, but I'm not very optimistic about them. Why is that? To answer this question, we need to look at its recent contract data. It can be seen that on July 23, when its contract open interest increased, the long-short ratio of contracts was declining. Why is that? Because at that time, the price of $LA was rising. Let's look at the candlestick chart from that time. It can be seen that after the price rises, there is basically no obvious pullback. At that moment, just like this very moment. —————————————————— I really don't think now is a good time to short $LA; now is the time to shortMany people are curious about why Robinhood firmly chose the Ethereum ecosystem. The core logic is not simply bullish on the price of $ETH, but because it has become the universal underlying infrastructure for traditional assets going on-chain globally.
1. Security Guarantee: Directly reuse Ethereum's mainnet's decentralized security system, avoiding the high cost of building a new public chain from scratch and avoiding the security risks of self-built chains.
2. Liquidity Interoperability: Seamlessly integrates with mature DeFi ecosystems like Uniswap and Aave. Tokenized assets like stocks and ETFs can directly be lend, collateralized, and traded in secondary markets, revitalizing traditional financial assets.
3. Low development costs: Perfectly compatible with the EVM virtual machine, allowing massive global blockchain developers and mature tools to directly adapt, greatly lowering the threshold for project development and iteration.
4. Native Gas Token: Robinhood Chain pays transaction fees directly with ETH, eliminating the need to issue new platform tokens and eliminating the extra hassle of token issuance and market value maintenance.
5. Unified institutional consensus: Currently, the vast majority of RWA real-world asset projects and institutional on-chain financial layouts prioritize implementation within the Ethereum ecosystem, facilitating interconnection among different projects and meeting regulatory compliance requirements.
Ethereum is like the TCP/IP protocol in the internet era, already the universal standard for on-chain finance. Robinhood itself focuses on traditional asset tokenization business, so there's no need to develop its own underlying layer. Leveraging mature ecosystems is the most pragmatic business choice.大家有没有察觉到，特朗普的言论对加密市场的边际影响越来越弱了。

Let me put my conclusion first: this is not another positive repetition of "another L1" advantage, but a very substantial shift in technical route; For ONDO, product progress is real, but token value capture has yet to be compensated by this announcement. Understanding these two layers is more important than focusing solely on the "new network launch." Ondo Chain, announced in 2025, was originally envisioned as a PoS L1 for the institutional-level RWA market, with its own state, validators, and on-chain logic. Now, the official statement is very straightforward: after implementing Ondo Perps, it was found that what truly stuck the trading experience was not settlement, but execution; Therefore, there is no need to build chains using traditional methods. The new solution places high-frequency logic such as matching, margin, and clearing into a single high-performance TEE secure zone, executing secretly at speeds close to centralized exchanges; Multi-party provers first verify the runtime code, then store the key key using a threshold method; Asset transfers are settled on the public chain. In other words, it separates execution, validation, and settlement. The official statement even clearly states that Ondo Network "is currently not a blockchain," but is merely a continuation and more accurate expression of Ondo Chain's goals. I acknowledge this pragmatism, but I would not equate "verifiability" directly with "complete distrust." Currently, code is still running in a single TEE, and the system relies on hardware remote proofs, approval code governance processes, and the honesty and availability of multi-party provers. The announcement did not disclose the certifierAnother day of market education
The educational content is very simple
The headline is quite noisy
The big cake is very stable
The rates are cold
The mountain stronghold is very divided
Record the finishing price
BTC 65132, up about 0.9% in one day
ETH around 1962, close to four points
SOL 76.6, still just over two points
Then guess what
When I struck my phone,
The biggest impulse was not to increase positions
I want to turn off the notice
So my judgment is
Today, I'll leave you with just one sentence
No chasing, no cutting, lower leverage, turn off the app and sleep
Back to hot topics outside the market, a few interesting things happened today:
#以太坊验证者退出队列已降至零
The exit queue reset eased the expectation of selling pressure on the staking side. Stacking today's ETH clearly outperforming the broader market, short-term flexibility remains. I can continue to use ETH as a core satellite warehouse, but I won't switch to a high-leverage contract just because of one piece of data.
#多数党领袖称CLARITY休会前难通过
If the regulatory schedule is further delayed, thematic speculation lacks timeline stimulation and instead forces funds back into more liquid assets. From the end-of-day viewpoint, this is noise reduction, not an exit signal; just keep holding your core position.
#长鑫科技上市, global storage competition adds new variables
The storage market has brought the AI hardware war into the public eye, and the long-term narrative fuel remains, but price rhythm and secondary speculation are not the same thing. After reading the trending topics, remember to return to your position chart—don't impulsively place orders in the last five minutes of the day.
$BTC $ETH #日终 #盘面 Want to buy but don't dare, don't buy but fear missing out
Typical symptoms on the eve of the weekend
The U in the account is glowing
Fingers keep clicking back and forth between the plus and minus signs
The big issues left this week are very clear
The Federal Reserve decision is right in front of us
Geopolitics is still in the gray area of "ceasefire but not over"
The CLARITY schedule continues to be delayed
And then guess what
BTC has already digested part of the panic into a sideways upper range in advance
Closed red near 65100
But I don't dare interpret this as a green light to confidently increase leverage
For the weekend outlook, I only give myself three rules
First
Cut the leverage limit again before the decision
Volatility can come
But no liquidations
Second
You can watch the movers list
Position limits locked
Stocks with 18% moves in a day can only be observation samples
Third
Safety checks are more important than predictions
Mnemonic phrases, authorizations, unfamiliar apps
Perfect time to clean up during weekend boredom
So my judgment is
The weekend is not for proving how brave you are
It's for reducing irreversible mistakes
You can keep the direction, but actions must slow down
By the way, I noticed some recent developments in a few directions:
#美联储周四凌晨公布利率决议
The decision is the biggest macro trigger this week; the dot plot and press conference speeches often hurt valuations more than the rate hike or cut itself. My plan is to keep only low-leverage core positions before and after the decision, saving the firing rights until volatility clearly contracts.
#美军暂停对伊空袭，国际油价开盘大幅下跌
The ceasefire reduces the probability of the worst-case scenario, but the gray area may repeat at any time, and oil prices and risk assets will still pulse. During the weekend news blackout, be extra cautious of gap spikes; never treat the ceasefire headline as a one-way pass.
#英伟达拟为OpenAI提供2500亿美元担保
The computing power guarantee can sustain AI's long-term heat but is easily exaggerated by the community over the weekend as a no-brainer reason to go long. A warm background is acceptable, but positions must still obey weekend risk control rules, not trending headlines.

#CXMTMemoryIPO #FOMCRateWatch #OilDropsOnCeasefire Community sentiment was especially noisy tonight. Half people were posting the gainers leaderboard, half were cursing the drawdown list. It felt like we were living in two parallel markets. I scrolled through the discussion board, and there were only three keywords: how to price interest rate decisions, whether storage listings count as positive spillovers, and some even used the ceasefire as the trigger for a new bull market. And guess what? The ones truly dominating prices aren't the loudest comments, but boring data like funding rates and ETFs. Rates are still cold, but Bitcoin is still red. The pitfall of community sentiment is, first, clickbait pushes complex structures into a single phrase: "It's about to crash" or something "It's about to explode." If you place orders following emotion, you're basically handing your position over to the loudest person. Second, if PUMP can jump 18 points and SHIB can pull back by 8 points on the same day, it shows the narrative is fragmented and the unified slogan is no longer effective. Third, my own response is pretty basic. Trending topics are treated as intelligence, and orders are based on your own list. Whoever criticizes or praises should first keep a small notebook. So my judgment is: the more divided the community, the more suitable it is to reduce trading frequency and shift energy from "taking sides" back to positions and risk. People who speak less in noisy markets usually lose less. Coincidentally, there are a few hot topics worth discussing today: #财报观察员: Can Microsoft, Meta, and Amazon stabilize the AI narrative? When earnings season arrives, communities love to label all coins with AI tags, making it very difficult to tell real from fake. I wait for the guiding text to materialize before deciding on a topic position, rather than being pushed into the most crowded trades by slogans in the warm-up post. #长鑫科技上市, global storage competition adds variables. Storage launches have pushed hardware capacity wars into trending searches, making discussion forums easierForget about bottom-fishing, it feels like the fundamentals have changed this time and there's no bottom anymore
Previously, it was all hype about AI's huge growth and the perpetual shortage of storage
But last weekend, Samsung and SK Hynix both announced expansion plans
Changxin also went public; although it can't produce high-end HBM for now, it will eventually, and making DRAM now will squeeze Samsung and SK Hynix's mid-to-low-end market, freeing up capacity there
In short, the previous expectation of storage shortage has suddenly turned into no shortage
The market buys expectations and sells facts; stories are valuable, facts are not
Wait until the storage shortage story comes back again, just like last year when Deepseek first took down Nvidia and then the new story "cheaper models → explosive usage → more shovel sales" started again, then enter again $MU $SKHYNIX $NVDA #长鑫科技上市，全球存储竞争添变量 All analysts say it will drop, but I went long instead
I didn't really go all in long,
just that inner drive in my heart.
The scarier the headline,
the less the market cooperates,
I want to ask instead,
who's putting on a show?
Ladies,
tonight's list of negative news can be very long:
Interest rate cut expectations are blocked,
ETF daily frequency is still shaky,
whale contracts are getting crushed on both sides,
debt numbers are scary.
And then guess what?
BTC still closed above 65100,
and even gained nearly 1% in a day.
ETH is even heading for a 4% gain,
as if it never read those headlines.
This is my contrarian view tonight,
not shouting "bull to the moon,"
but that "headline mapping failure" itself is a signal.
First,
the market has already traded through the most panic-inducing geopolitical period.
The news of the US military pausing strikes came out,
oil prices crashed,
crypto had already desensitized in advance.
Second,
there are still three buy signals in the sentiment indicators.
Most are on the sidelines,
not a frenzy top,
nor a capitulation bottom,
but a grinding neutral-to-bullish stance.
Third,
the real danger is trading based on headlines.
Trading based on position structure is the right path.
Low fees, spot market is green,
it looks more like someone is quietly accumulating,
not retail frenzy.
So my judgment is,
don't be scared out of your core positions by the "negative news collection" in the short term,
and don't switch to chasing gains just because of one red day.
The contrarian approach is to reduce overreaction, not to double down on gambling.
Finally, let's talk about today's market highlights, a few directions worth watching:
#US military pauses airstrikes on Iran, international oil prices open sharply lower
A ceasefire can reduce the most extreme tail risks, but a drop in oil prices does not mean crypto will automatically surge. Tonight's "oil down, coins up" shows the pricing anchor has changed; continuing to force old correlations will only get you repeatedly slapped in the face.
#Majority leader says CLARITY unlikely to pass before recess
Bill delays have long been a regular on the negative news list, but the market doesn't necessarily punish with a discount. Once the regulatory timeline extends, I prefer to shift trading from "betting on passage" to "holding core assets that can survive the window."
#Federal Reserve announces interest rate decision early Thursday
The hawkish tail will suppress valuations, but if the dot plot doesn't worsen beyond expectations, BTC may treat volatility as an accumulation range after desensitization. Before the decision, I reduce high-leverage positions, not long-term convictions.
$BTC $ETH #contrarian #macro When others are afraid, am I greedy? No, I am also afraid, But I still bought it
The point of fear is very specific
It's not the candlestick that is scary
Institutions are making increasingly 'pragmatic' attitudes.

Dollar reserves have been raised to 3.75 billion
On one hand, he talked about long-term faith
On the other hand, stack up the bullet thickness first
Then guess what
Spot ETFs are still recording three consecutive weeks of inflows on paper
But the volume shrank to just over 30 million that week
The past two weeks have been worth hundreds of millions of dollars in progress
In the same week, there were two days with outflows and cash-back exceeding 100 million yuan
That's just how slow money is
It doesn't disappear
It shifts gears
First
Not increasing holdings does not mean being bearish
It seems more like the financing environment and the pace of buybacks are telling the story
Companies should first safeguard US dollars and ammunition before discussing sweeping the chain
Second
ETF went from "seven consecutive trading days of progress" to "still advancing on a weekly scale, very shaky on a daily scale"
Institutional demand is recovering but remains cautious
This structure is best suited for regular betting and not for all-in gambling
Third
The volume of OTC stablecoins remains high
USDT plus USDC is just over 250 billion
The bullet pool hasn't dried up
What is lacking is the willingness to take risks
So my judgment is
Mining, treasury, and ETF narratives all lean 'slow' tonight
Slowness is not empty
It asks you to shift your expectations from weekly bursts back to monthly accumulation
I continued in batches myself, not chasing the climax headline
Next, let's take a quick look at the latest hot topics and chat casually:
#RWA永续月交易量4700亿美元
The trading volume on traditional asset chains has grown so large that it cannot be used as a testing ground, indicating that institutional-level infrastructure is making money. This line is the same type of slow money as Bitcoin's treasury, suitable as an allocation theme, not as a source of daily 18 points of stimulation.
#英伟达拟为OpenAI提供2500亿美元担保
Computing power guarantees digital stimulation of risk appetite, but when it comes to crypto allocation, it usually benefits large-cap liquidity first, rather than a small coin frenzy. I will treat this as background risk appetite, and my position will still be mainly BTC spot.
#长鑫科技上市, global storage competition adds new variables
The storage IPO hype reminds us that the global chip capacity competition has entered a new phase, and the story of AI hardware capital spending is far from over. Mapping to crypto is the fuel for the long-term narrative, but the price has already overdrawn a round of expectations in advance.
$BTC $ETH #ETF #机构 I didn't cut even after dropping 80%, but today it just rebounded. That was the old me. Now I learn to check the funding rate first, then decide whether to get cocky. Everyone, tonight's futures session feels very divided. The price is in the red but leverage isn't high. Then guess what? BTC's funding rate is about 0.01%, riding the wave. ETH is colder, almost zero. SOL is similarly lukewarm. On OKX, BTC open interest is about 2 billion U. People are here, but the heat isn't strong. What does this mean? First The bullish market is mainly not a short-squeeze feast after the bears collectively get crushed; it's more like spot and neutral positions are pushing prices up. Bulls haven't pushed rates to the frenzy zone. Second, rates are cold + OI is still there. The worst is sweeping back and forth between both sides. You think the trend is coming and you leverage it, but you end up reaping fees and liquidations from insertion and up-and-down insertions. Third, the news about Hyperliquid's top addresses losing over 40 million also reminds us that smart money will also get hit on both sides in this "seemingly insecure" structure. So my judgment is that a zero rate discount is not a mindless long license, but " You can use spot trading and use less high leverage. Wait for rates to rise again before discussing trend acceleration. By the way, let's talk about a few hot topics to see if any of them catch your attention: #美联储周四凌晨公布利率决议 Contracts love to extract liquidity before and after Resolution Night; low rates don't necessarily mean low volatility. I usually lower my high-leverage positions in advance, using small positions to express direction, avoiding losing my principal with a single dot plot statement. #多数党领袖称CLARITY休会前难通过 Regulatory expectations are delayed again,$WLFI
Volatility has dropped significantly over the last few sessions, which usually precedes a sharp expansion. The price is tightly coiled, and the direction of the break will be telling for the rest of the week.

The $ETH /$BTC ratio has historically been closely aligned with the broader macro risk cycle, and today's market structure resembles the same stage seen in those previous cycles.
Despite this, many believe $ETH cycle is over because it underperformed between 2022 and 2026, relying on the traditional four-year cycle narrative.
However, the macro cycle appears to have lengthened, shifting the timeline. If that's the case, 2026 may correspond more closely to where 2016 and 2020 stood—periods that ultimately preceded $ETH strongest upside moves.
If history continues to rhyme, the current phase could represent a delayed cycle rather than a broken one.
#CXMTMemoryIPO #FOMCRateWatch Last week marked a turning point, with more brokerage activity last weekend, and this week signaling optimism about downgrades began to be released
The timing was very well controlled, but unfortunately, I didn't manage my opening timing well
However, don't be overly optimistic. If the strait issue isn't resolved, it's very likely that negotiations will continue to be fought while pushing talks to promote talks
Once the strait issue is resolved, the optimistic window between the US and Iran can last about 3-4 months. During this period, it depends on how much crude oil prices can fall.
In 3-4 months, regardless of Trump's win or lose, it's highly likely that Iran will be targeted again! #美军暂停对伊空袭, international oil prices opened sharply lower $AEON speaks some hard truths👇
First, the background: incubated by Binance YZi Labs, with the Binance halo, the team is all Chinese, including former Binance employees and ordinary Google engineers (non-core positions, led by Li Yiyang).
But here come the problems:
1. What does the project do?
AI payments + connecting global merchants, sounds grand.
2. What about real-world implementation?
Currently almost zero. The whitepaper paints a very rosy picture, but reality is still far from landing.
3. Can this track succeed?
Someone tried back in 2021—wallet + crypto bank card, fully integrated online payments and offline collections, connected with dozens of merchants.
What happened? It died in less than two months.
The reality of merchant payment tracks is not a technical issue, but one of implementation, compliance, and promotion. With past failures as a lesson, why should AEON succeed?
The team background is ordinary, the track has been proven difficult to succeed, and the project is still at the concept stage.
Summary:
The Binance halo is real, but don’t be dazzled by it.
High-risk investment, participate cautiously. At least wait to see real-world implementation data before considering.What Amazon's worth watching most is not net profit, but the free cash flow which has dropped to only $1.2 billion.
Amazon's Q2 2026 earnings will be announced on July 30. If you only look at net profit this time, you might reach the wrong conclusion. The official Q1 net profit was $30.255 billion, with diluted EPS of $2.78, but this included a $16.8 billion pre-tax gain from the Anthropic investment. Investment revaluation is not part of the daily operating income of AWS, retail, or advertising, so it must be separated in analysis.
What’s more worth tracking is cash flow. Amazon’s Q1 report shows that for the twelve months ending March 2026, operating cash flow grew 30% to $148.5 billion; however, free cash flow dropped from $25.9 billion a year ago to $1.2 billion. The main reason is a $59.3 billion year-over-year increase in net purchases of property and equipment, with the company explicitly stating that the increase mainly reflects investments in artificial intelligence.
These figures are not simply good or bad. Operating cash flow remains strong, indicating the core business has cash-generating ability; free cash flow near zero indicates that data centers, chips, and other infrastructure are absorbing large amounts of cash. What Q2 needs to confirm is whether the pace of investment, asset delivery rhythm, and AWS revenue are starting to form a clearer correspondence, rather than treating capital expenditures uniformly as waste or benefit.
Consolidated operating profit also needs to be broken down. Q1 total company operating profit was $23.852 billion, with AWS contributing $14.161 billion, North American retail $8.267 billion, and international business $1.424 billion. AWS remains the largest profit source, but retail in both regions is also profitable. If Q2 only looks at AWS, it will overlook the impact of fulfillment efficiency, Prime Day timing, and international business on consolidated profit.
After the earnings report, I will first extract operating cash flow and property and equipment expenditures from the cash flow statement, then calculate free cash flow; only afterward will I compare net profit and investment gains or losses. This avoids non-operating items like Anthropic masking the core business trend. Before the official results are released, Q1 numbers serve only as a comparative baseline; Q2’s cash flow, capital expenditures, and investment gains or losses cannot be assumed in advance.
Free cash flow near zero does not mean cash is depleted. Amazon’s operating cash flow scale is very large, and capital expenditures are the main difference; it is necessary to see if asset formation can bring efficiency improvements to AWS, advertising, and retail. Conversely, just because spending is on AI does not automatically imply high returns; returns must still be proven by subsequent revenue, profit, and cash flow.
If Q2 again shows large investment fair value gains or losses, I will list them separately outside the headline to avoid mixing them with the core business. Earnings per share is only one of the results, not the sole criterion. This kind of breakdown may not be as sensational as a "surge or crash" headline, but it better fits long-term content quality. The final report will also note that free cash flow uses the company’s official definition and list the actual impact of investment gains or losses on core net profit.Just scanned through the Alt/BTC pairs, feeling a bit cold and a bit warm. 🫧
Have you noticed that the market is quietly drawing up a "winners vs losers" list recently?
The changes in this round of Alt/BTC pairs are actually the funds voting with their feet, repricing every chip based on expectations. This is not just a numbers game of price changes, but the market telling us which side to stand on.
Look at the data I have on hand:
- SOL/BTC up 8%, gaming token LAB/BTC up 15%, BSB/BTC up 12% — these are the winners where funds are actively increasing positions.
- On the other side, BEAT/BTC down 20%, COAI/BTC down 25%, SPACE/BTC down 30% — these are the ruthless abandoned losers.
Why is this important? Because Alt/BTC pairs are a thermometer of risk appetite. When funds withdraw from tokens with unclear narratives and poor liquidity, and concentrate into tokens like SOL, JELLYJELLY, OPG, SLX, LAB, BSB, ALLO, CHIP, ZKP that have clear ecosystems or community support, it means the market is executing a "meritocracy" reshuffle. This is not a simple sector rotation but a repricing of each project: those who can deliver on their narrative stay; those left with only slogans get left behind.
But risks also hide in the details. Some tokens in the winners list, like JELLYJELLY, have risen too steeply in the short term, and if BTC pulls back, they might be the first targets for profit-taking sell-offs. Meanwhile, losers like BEAT, EDGE, COAI, if fundamentals don’t change drastically, have a high probability of continuing to drift down. Also, the overall Alt/BTC pairs have not shown a broad rally, indicating limited total funds, not a full market celebration, more like subtraction.
My understanding is: now is not the time to blindly buy altcoins, but to do subtraction by shifting positions toward the winners list and decisively stop losses on losers. In terms of rhythm, if BTC can hold steady at the current level, the strong coins in the winners list may continue to accumulate; but if BTC crashes sharply, winners will also be pressured, though they will rebound faster.
So, to sum up in one sentence: follow the winners, don’t fall in love with the losers. 💫

$SOL $JELLYJELLY $OPG $SLX $LAB $BSB $ALLO $CHIP $ZKP $BEAT $EDGE $COAI $TRUMP $RAVE $SPACE $VIRTUAL $MEGA #AltBTC #CryptoMarket #RiskManagement美伊预期停火，美股却刚经历了一场"血洗"——这俩事儿看着八竿子打不着，其实暗戳戳地勾连在一起。咱们今天就掰开了揉碎了聊聊，这背后到底藏着啥门道。
先说结论：美股闪崩，真不怪美伊停火，但停火也没能把市场从坑里完全拉出来。
7月24号那天，美股科技圈堪称"黑色星期四"。谷歌母公司Alphabet财报一出来，市场直接傻眼——今年资本开支要干到2050亿美元，但AI赚的钱呢？不知道。特斯拉更惨，利润远不及预期，马斯克还补刀说2026年是"资本支出大年"。结果"科技七巨头"一天蒸发近8000亿美元市值，纳指暴跌近2%。
这跟美伊停火有啥关系？说实话，直接关系不大。那天崩盘的元凶就一个：AI泡沫的信仰松动了。华尔街突然发现，这些科技巨头烧了几千亿搞AI，回报却遥遥无期。就像你朋友天天跟你借钱说要创业，借了三年还没见着产品，你慌不慌？
但美伊冲突这事儿，一直在旁边"拱火"。
咱们把时间线拉长看。2026年这波美伊冲突，从年初打到年中，霍尔木兹海峡开开关关，油价跟坐过山车似的。油价一高，通胀就压不下去，美联储那边降息就遥遥无期。而科技股最怕什么？最怕高利率。那些AI公司的估值，都是建立在"未来很美好"的远景上，贴现率一高，现在的股价就得打折。
所以你看，美伊冲突虽然没有直接砸盘，但它通过油价→通胀→利率这条暗线，给科技股的高估值埋了雷。市场就像一根绷紧的弦，AI财报是压垮骆驼的最后一根稻草，而地缘风险早就让这根弦绷得够紧了。
到了7月27号，美伊突然说"先不打了"，油价应声暴跌6%，布伦特原油从高位摔到91美元。按理说这是天大的利好啊——油价跌了，通胀压力小了，美联储是不是就能松口气了？当天美股期货也确实涨了，纳指期货跳涨1.2%。
但诡异的是，市场并没有狂欢。
为什么？因为交易员们学乖了。这停火能停多久？两周前也停过一次，结果伊朗被指违反协议，特朗普在社交媒体上开骂，股市照样跌。 更关键的是，胡塞武装还在袭击沙特的石油设施，霍尔木兹海峡每天通过的货轮不足10艘，船东们都不敢往里开。 这停火，更像是"中场休息"，而不是"终场哨"。
所以你看懂了吗？美伊停火和美股闪崩之间，不是简单的因果关系，而是一种"叠加态"的脆弱。
市场同时面临两个不确定性：一个是地缘政治的"黑箱"——特朗普发一条推特，油价就能上蹿下跳；另一个是AI叙事的"证伪"——几千亿砸下去，到底能不能砸出真金白银？这两个风险不是互相替代，而是互相放大。当地缘风险高的时候，大家还能用"避险"来解释持仓；但当AI的基本面也开始崩，市场就找不到避风港了。
更扎心的是，美伊停火反而暴露了一个问题：就算油价跌了，科技股的问题就能解决吗？ 答案是并不能。Alphabet该花2050亿还是得花，特斯拉的Robotaxi该推迟还是推迟。油价下跌顶多给美联储降息打开一点空间，但科技股的估值重构，是躲不过去的。
说白了，2026年7月的这场市场动荡，是"旧风险"（地缘冲突）和"新风险"（AI泡沫）的接力赛。美伊冲突把市场吓出一身冷汗，AI财报直接把市场打懵。停火消息出来，地缘这棒接力暂时放下了，但AI那棒还在往前冲——而且方向是悬崖。
对咱们普通投资者来说，看懂这一点很重要：别看到油价跌了、停火了，就觉得股市该涨了。如果科技巨头的业绩撑不住，地缘政治再缓和也托不住高估值。反过来，如果AI真的能兑现回报，就算霍尔木兹海峡再关一次，市场也能扛得住。
一句话总结：美伊停火救得了油价，救不了AI的信仰危机。美股闪崩，表面是财报暴雷，实则是市场在多重不确定性下的集体"清醒"。 这时候与其赌停火能持续多久，不如好好想想——那些科技公司画的饼，到底什么时候能烙熟？SanDisk SNDK plunges! Don't look for negative news everywhere; the truth is hidden in the logic of cycles
$SNDK
Today, Sandisk experienced a clear pullback, prompting many people to immediately look for sudden negative announcements. Reviewing public information, it is clear that the company did not experience any major black swan events today; the decline was driven by a three-layer logic resonance and capital adjustments.
1. Fundamental expectations for the industry have loosened
Sandisk's core business is NAND flash memory, with its stock price highly tied to storage cycles. According to TrendForce's latest industry data for July: AI server demand continues to provide support, but demand for consumer electronics terminals remains weak. Downstream customers are nearing their upper limit for high-priced chips, and the increase in NAND contract prices has narrowed significantly.
The spot market only stabilized briefly, and overall actual buying momentum was not strong. As major original manufacturers continue to expand production and advance technological iterations, the market is beginning to worry that the supply-demand pattern will gradually loosen going forward. To put it bluntly: the market is beginning to maneuver, the flash memory price hike is nearing its peak, and profit growth is falling short of previous expectations.
2. Storage sector funds collectively reduced holdings, and sector betas plunged
Recently, memory-related stocks such as Micron, Samsung, and SK Hynix have weakened in tandem, with the storage sector generally pulling back more than 20% from previous highs. Funds are shifting their trading approach: no longer blindly betting on AI + storage price increases, and beginning to reassess whether high valuations can be sustained.
Sandisk, as a pure NAND cyclical asset, has extremely high volatility flexibility. During the sector's capital exit phase, it is naturally sold off simultaneously; the decline is not entirely due to the individual stock's own problems.
3. Earnings window period game game: Funds choose to cash out early
The company's key timelines have been clarified: the quarterly report and full-year results will be released on August 5, and the investor communication day will be held on August 13.
Although the company announced progress on BICS10 1TB TLC 3D NAND samples in early July, which is a long-term technical benefit, short-term capital is more concerned about ASP prices, gross margins, and demand guidance for the second half of the year.
In an environment where industry prosperity signals are weakening at the margin, funds choose to "cash in first and wait for earnings reports to verify expectations." For semiconductor cyclical stocks, it is very common for valuations to be cut ahead of earnings reports.
✅ To sum up this drop in one sentence:
It wasn't a sudden negative news that triggered the rally, but rather a slowdown in NAND price momentum, weak consumer demand, and capital withdrawal across the entire storage sector. Combined with pre-earnings market expectations, the market downgraded Sandisk's short-term valuation ahead of schedule.
Focus on three core signals to watch (trading reference)
1. Whether the decline continues to increase volume: This increase in volume indicates institutions are actively adjusting their positions, which is different from pure emotional fluctuations;
2. Whether the decline significantly underperformed peers: If the decline far exceeds other storage companies, it indicates negative news for independent stocks;
3. August 5 Financial Report Management's Guidance: This is the most critical dividing line between "short-term misselling" and "trend reversal."
⚠️ This is merely an industry logic review and does not constitute any investment advice
$SNDK Over the past month, the defensive stance in the Bitcoin options market has clearly decreased, with the put/call open interest ratio dropping from 0.76 at the end of June to about 0.52. Traders are unwinding the downside protection established during the most severe pullback period—just as the Federal Reserve prepares for its meeting on July 28-29. The one-week implied volatility has narrowed to 34.3%, while the six-month implied volatility stands at 40.8%; the one-week 25-delta skew has fallen to about 4%, whereas the three-month and six-month contract skews remain around 11-12%. The options market expects the next seven days (including the Fed rate decision, major tech earnings, and oil prices near $97) to be calmer than the following six months. During Thursday's sell-off, Bitcoin prices held near $65,000. This sell-off wiped out $797 billion in market value from the largest U.S. tech stocks, while blockchain networks Movement Labs and Storj filed for bankruptcy, and BitMEX and BitMart announced shutdown plans. Under the basic assumption of a 15% rate hike in July, near-term options pricing remains reasonably acceptable—but if the Fed's statement or forecast surprises, the buffer is very thin, and such weak positioning often amplifies this risk. Put/Call Option Ratio—Dropped from 0.76 to 0.52 within one month The put/call option ratio fell from 0.76 at the end of June to the current 0.52, directly reflecting a significant reduction in defensive positions in the options market Oil prices plunged 7% in 7 minutes! $BTC Directly surged back to 65,000! The market is jumping ahead again!
The US military bombed Iran for 13 days before suddenly announcing a ceasefire. As a result, international oil prices crashed 7% within minutes of opening, with Brent crude plunging from above $100 all the way to around $91. Meanwhile, Nasdaq futures opened 1.4% higher, Bitcoin returned to $65,000, and gold and silver also rose.
Last week, everyone was still frantically trading the script of oil prices breaking 100, uncontrolled inflation, and the Federal Reserve raising interest rates, causing everyone to panic. As a result, after the U.S. military stopped for two days, oil prices crashed and all risk assets returned. The market's probability of a ceasefire before the end of August has now soared to 75%, as if this is already decided.
But what about reality? Iran has clearly expressed doubts, saying the Houthis are still operating, and shipping in the Strait of Hormuz is severely disrupted. There is no sign of a ceasefire agreement at all. I increasingly feel that the market is not reflecting the real situation at all, but rather racing ahead of its own imagination. Last week I was still selling risk assets, but this week I rushed back to buy. The same group, the same region, the script was completely flipped in just seven days.
Seeing this market trend made me shake my head; before the news even landed, the price had already run the whole way. Don't rush to chase highs, and don't be easily led by news. Let things settle first before dealing with them. $CL $BZ $BTC #美军暂停对伊空袭, international oil prices opened down sharply by #美联储周四凌晨公布利率决议
