#SemisEarningsTest 🧠 Chips are bouncing—but the positioning tells a deeper story. Semiconductor names are showing strength: 🟢 Ambarella +6.24% 🟢 Teradyne +3.54% 🟢 Marvell +3.32% Meanwhile, the broader market closed slightly lower. Bulls and bears are both making their moves as earnings season begins. 👀 But market positioning reveals another layer: 📉 S&P 500 short interest has climbed to 3.79% of float 📉 Russell 3000 short interest reached 6.3% Both are at record highs. Hedge funds have also been reducing US tech exposure, with net selling in 6 of the past 8 weeks and roughly a 10% reduction—the largest pullback in more than a decade.

Reports indicate that off-balance-sheet debt among five major tech companies has expanded significantly, reaching around $1.65T, surpassing their reported on-book debt. Meta’s exposure alone is estimated around $420B, while major financing efforts are underway to support AI data center expansion.
