Dailies
- Tech — the tape buys the reporters: Nasdaq-100 +1.1%, Meta +2.4%, Tesla +3.6% hours before their prints

- Chips — one day of bounce, then Asia sells it: Kospi −4.3%, SK Hynix −5.3%, Nasdaq futures lower
The one unambiguous buy of the session was Amazon: +5.0% to 262.45, leading the Dow, after Morgan Stanley named it a 'Top Pick' with a $350 target — and after Amazon released a tool that aims straight at Nvidia's software moat.
- Chips — the open follows Seoul, then turns: chip index from −2.4% to +0.7%; small caps +1.6%
Micron +0.9% to 913.00, AMD +0.9% to 542.73, Broadcom +0.4%, Nvidia +0.1% to 217.38.
