Chart of the Day
🏆 Today's Chart of the Day was shared by Duality Research (@DualityResearch).
- The S&P 500 Semiconductor Index is testing all-time highs after a false start this Summer.
- This is an equally weighted index. Therefore, it broadly represents 'the semiconductor industry' without being distorted by heavyweights like Nvidia ($NVDA), Broadcom ($AVGO), or Taiwan Semi ($TSM).
- The index broke out of a three-year Ascending Triangle in July before failing and correcting. However, it has reclaimed its former highs with stronger breadth, opening the door for a more sustainable breakout.
The Takeaway: While many continue to search for a top in Semiconductor stocks, this equally weighted basket is just starting to emerge from a three-year consolidation phase.
