Summary

Curator Park Myung-suk reviews a session where Alphabet and Tesla surged, driving a Nasdaq rally while semiconductor volatility continued amid rebalancing flows. He sees the market broadening from memory chips into HDD, software, drones, and space stocks, with long-term semiconductor fundamentals intact. Specific names like Palantir, Micron, Seagate/Western Digital, Marvell, and Tesla offer near-term catalysts, while the de-rating of M7 ex-Apple/Tesla presents a valuation opportunity.

Nasdaq rose 2% led by Alphabet (+5%) on Dow inclusion and Tesla (+8%) ahead of delivery beats.
Semiconductor volatility persists due to quarter-end rebalancing and high leverage/options activity.
Memory shortage is shifting to HDD, boosting Seagate and Western Digital.
Palantir rebounded on Nvidia government AI engine partnership and Anthropic deployment runway.
Marvell benefited from a UBS target upgrade to $340 amid diverse AI chip exposure.
Micron's sharp selloff was a buying opportunity supported by strong earnings and long-term contracts.
M7 valuations (NVDA 15x, META 16x, MSFT 19x, AMZN/GOOGL 23x) have reset to attractive levels.
Space and drone stocks, including Rocket Lab and AeroVironment, rallied on positive catalysts.

HDD demand shift benefits Seagate, WDC

The semiconductor shortage is shifting from SSD/DRAM to hard disk drives, benefiting Seagate and Western Digital. AI-driven data center storage demand is expanding into HDD, making these names outperform within the memory sector.

Micron dip is buy on strong fundamentals

Micron's sharp volatility is driven by rebalancing flows and option/margin dynamics, not fundamentals. Its strong earnings and long-term supply contracts support a hold-through-dips strategy; the selloff is a buying opportunity because the memory cycle remains robust.

Marvell target raise, diverse AI chip play

Marvell Technology benefits from multiple AI tailwinds: optical networking, custom chips, and CXL. UBS raised its price target to $340, and the stock is well-positioned across the semiconductor expansion beyond just memory.

M7 ex-AAPL/TSLA valuations are attractive

The Magnificent Seven, excluding Apple and Tesla, have de-rated to attractive levels: NVDA 15x, META 16x, MSFT 19x, AMZN/GOOGL 23x. The market is starting to pay attention again, and these valuations support a buying opportunity in mega-cap tech.

Tesla delivery beat expected, stock rallies

Tesla's 8% surge is mainly driven by expectations that this week's delivery numbers will significantly beat consensus, providing a near-term catalyst for the stock.

Park Myung-seok Curator 36:07

Palantir rebound on Nvidia AI partnership

Palantir has fallen sharply but is rebounding with strong catalysts: partnership with Nvidia on a government AI engine, Anthropic's cloud deployments using Palantir's ontology system, and sustained B2B/B2G momentum. The selloff was overdone, and the upcoming earnings season could serve as a positive catalyst.

Park Myung-seok Curator 39:06

Rocket Lab oversold rebound on space momentum

Rocket Lab is deeply oversold and rebounding as a 'small SpaceX' with positive catalysts: acquisition of satellite communications assets and a full-stack service strategy. It follows SpaceX's resurgence and benefits from the space economy's growth.
