September saw Nasdaq-100 hit records; PCE inflation data may spark volatility and buying chances.

September defied its usual bearish trend with the Nasdaq-100 reaching new highs and the S&P 500 nearing its peak. The upcoming PCE inflation report is expected to cause market volatility, presenting a tactical opportunity to buy on dips. The strategy includes holding cash, using selective hedges with TQQQ/SQQQ options, and trimming positions like Micron Technology ahead of potential sell-the-news reactions. The outlook remains bullish for year-end with plans to accumulate gold-related stocks and expand consumer experience investments.

Micron Technology (MU) trades at USD 1,069.27 with a slight 0.24% decline, while the leveraged ETF TQQQ is down 0.34% at USD 78.39 as of Sep 28, 2026 09:21 WIB on Pluang. The inverse ETF SQQQ shows a modest gain of 0.38% at USD 34.27, reflecting cautious positioning ahead of the PCE inflation data. Gold miners ETF GDX fell 3.17% to USD 90.59, indicating some risk-off sentiment in the market.
