|---|---|---|
| MU pre-earnings | 05:46 PT $1,550 | ✅ VALIDATED — AH blowout +1.4% |
| SNPS 4-signal | Full-day structural | ✅ VALIDATED — +4.79% close, AH more |
| HPE Vultr AMD Helios | 07:48 catalyst → EXECUTED 10:01 | ✅ NET +3.90% (from AM high $67 faded to close $63.90) |
| Software relief bid | 12:11 NOW alert | ⚠️ PARTIAL — held gains but faded from midday |
| Biotech derm-triple | 08:18-08:11 (ABBV+LLY+MRK) | ❌ MUTED (LLY -2.17%, ABBV -0.5%, MRK also down) |
| LLY 4-signal obesity | Full day | ❌ NVO CROSS-CUT DOMINATED (-2.17% net) |

| DASH Analyst Day 7-product | 09:05 | ❌ SELL-THE-NEWS ($187→$185) |
| PSKY/WBD merger clearance | 15:33 court + 3-source poll | ⚠️ Not enough intraday time to trade; Thu open |
| FTC AI probe → software relief | 09:39 inversion | ⚠️ NOW/CRM/MDB gains held but softened |
Thu Setup
- MU AH blowout → semi-AI open sympathy — expect NVDA/AMD/AVGO/AMAT/KLAC lift; NVDA held could reclaim +1-2%; SYM benefits
- SNPS structural day — potential pipeline candidate for Thu open (AH gap likely; check entry)
- GOOGL Gemini 4 Argon — AH +1.25% could extend at open
- PSKY/WBD merger closing next week — merger-arb watch (WBD is high-confidence special-sit per widen memory Tier 4)
- HPE catch-up — if MU-lifted semi tape extends to server/AI-infra, HPE could retest $67 AM high
- NVDA post-FTC watch — CUDA moat overhang durability
- UNH CI-read-across durability — sector re-rate risk continues
- DLR AI-DC-debt bear — if The Information story extends, DLR cushion 4.5% tightens
Watch List (Cushion Priority)
- SYY 3.8% ⚠️⚠️ NEW-TIGHTEST (from 4.9% midday)
- DLR 4.5% ⚠️ (compounded by AI-DC-debt bear thesis)
- HPE 8.5% — fresh position
- NVDA 11.3% — should benefit from MU sympathy Thu open
- SYM 16.8% — wide
Notes
- No ratchets executed — HPE close-flat vs basis makes ratchet moot; NVDA slight negative doesn’t warrant tighten
- No stop-fires intraday
- WhatsApp MCP still DOWN — no operator notifications for HPE fill, MU blowout, or SNPS structural day; all via PushNotification (suppressed by terminal focus)
- Post-AM sweep 10:49 clean; all stops holding
- 1 disc trade today (HPE) — 3/4 slots preserved into Thu
- Cash 78.4% = dry powder for Thu opportunities (MU-sympathy semi + SNPS structural + PSKY-WBD merger-arb)
