In July, the NASDAQ dropped more than 3%, driven by the worst monthly performance in semiconductors since 2008. Market stress increased due to leverage-driven sell-offs, including a sharp crash in Korea's Kospi and forced liquidations of highly leveraged funds. Bond yields rose, especially affecting AI-related debt from companies like NVIDIA and Oracle, signaling renewed pressure in credit markets. The analyst maintains a defensive portfolio stance with covered calls, short-term treasuries, and cash reserves to capitalize on future opportunities.
