Tier Analysis
LEADERS / MOMENTUM (RSI > 55)
VRT (RSI 68, +67% in 3M): Vertiv is the data center power infrastructure king. Cooling, power distribution for hyperscalers. +65% above SMA200, golden cross. At RSI 68 it's near overbought but the fundamental demand is undeniable. Trim zone approaching but don't sell your core.
MRVL (RSI 60, +15.4% in 7D): Marvell — custom AI ASICs for hyperscalers (Amazon, Google). Big week. +8.6% above SMA20, golden cross. This is the custom ASIC horse to ride as NVDA CUDA monopoly gets pressured. Still +12% above SMA200.
GEV (RSI 55, +24.5% in 3M): GE Vernova — grid/power infrastructure. Near 52wk high (-5.9%). +32.9% above SMA200. Strong fundamental demand from data center power buildout.
AVGO (RSI 54, +4.9% above SMA200): Broadcom holding well — custom silicon + networking. Golden cross intact.
CONSOLIDATING (RSI 45-55) — Hold/Watch
NVDA (RSI 50): The man himself is consolidating. -0.7% vs SMA20, essentially flat. +3.9% above SMA200. Down -1.5% in 30D but +5.2% in 3M. If you own NVDA, hold. If you don't, wait for the ecosystem to signal direction.
CEG (RSI 50, death cross): Constellation Energy consolidating after +11.8% in 30D bounce. But death cross is a caution flag. Nuclear power for data centers — thesis intact long-term but near-term technical uncertainty.
MU (RSI 53, +83.7% above SMA200): Memory playing catch-up to AI cycle. +68.6% in 3M is parabolic. Now consolidating near SMA20. Strong long-term setup.
AMAT (RSI 48, +44.7% above SMA200): Applied Materials holding above all SMAs. Golden cross. Etch/CVD equipment for AI chip fabs. +31% in 3M. Healthy consolidation.
PULLING BACK / WATCH (RSI 40-48)
TSM (RSI 43, -6.4% vs SMA20): Taiwan Semi pulling back after big 3M run. The world's foundry — fundamental demand unquestionable. Tariff/geopolitical risk on Taiwan is the overhang. -7.8% in 30D but +16.2% in 3M. Better entry ahead.
ASML (RSI 46, -4.7% vs SMA20): EUV lithography monopoly. -3.9% in 30D but +25.3% in 3M. Still golden cross. Europe exposure but irreplaceable technology.
ARM (RSI 42, DEATH CROSS): This is the yellow flag. Arm Holdings — CPU IP licensing. Death cross confirmed, -16.6% below SMA200, -34.5% from 52wk high. AI edge computing thesis may be intact but technical damage is severe.
BROKEN (Structural Damage)
SMCI (RSI 47, death cross, -49% from 52wk high, -24.6% below SMA200): Super Micro — accounting/governance issues remain unresolved. Technical structure destroyed. Not a buy despite flat RSI; the death cross and -49% from high tell the real story.
Entry Zones
| Stock | Current | Zone | RSI | 30D Chg | Action | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TSM | $339.35 | $320-340 | 43 | -7.8% | 📈 Accumulate | World's only foundry, pulling back to SMA50 zone |
| ASML | $1,352.42 | $1,300-1,360 | 46 | -3.9% | 📈 Accumulate | EUV monopoly, golden cross intact, healthy pullback |
| NVDA | $184.12 | $175-185 | 50 | -1.5% | 🔒 Hold | Consolidating at fair value; add on dips to SMA50 |
| AMAT | $339.15 | $320-340 | 48 | +3.4% | 🔍 Watch | Equipment spend will rise with new fabs; no rush |
| ARM | $115.31 | Wait | 42 | -5.6% | ⏳ Wait | Death cross — need SMA recovery before entry |
Action Matrix
| Action | Stocks | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 🔒 HOLD | VRT, GEV, AVGO, MU, NVDA | Core AI infrastructure winners, trends intact |
| 📈 ACCUMULATE | TSM, ASML | Pulling back to entry zones, irreplaceable businesses |
| 🔍 WATCH | MRVL, AMAT, CEG | Momentum building; MRVL esp. impressive this week |
| ⚠️ CAUTION | ARM | Death cross, -34% from high, needs technical repair |
| ❌ DON'T BUY | SMCI | Governance issues unresolved, structural damage |
What Changed
- MRVL +15.4% this week: Custom ASIC story breaking out. Hyperscaler silicon spend shifting to custom chips — Marvell is a prime beneficiary. This is the "NVDA without NVDA premium" play.
- VRT continues grind higher: Data center power infra remains strongest subsector. +66.96% in 3M. Near RSI 68 but fundamental demand not slowing.
- ARM death cross confirmed: -34.5% from highs and death cross is a clear caution signal. CPU IP licensing faces pressure from RISC-V alternatives and in-house chip design.
- CEG -7.5% this week: Nuclear power play pulling back. Death cross is now confirmed — the data center power narrative has been priced in; now we wait for actual contracts.
- SMCI remains broken: Flat-ish RSI 47 is misleading — the structural damage from accounting issues persists. No buy signal.
- NVDA consolidating: Not alarming — just digesting the 2025 run. Core position to hold.
Key Discoveries
