Dow Rises, But Nasdaq Drops on Global Chip Selloff

“A heavy selloff in Asian chipmakers, including in a ~10% drop in the South Korean KOPSI index, is dragging broader equity markets lower amid valuation and capex worries,” writes Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye. “Today, focus is likely to be on whether the pre-market selloff in tech stocks accelerates or stabilizes as trading gets underway on Wall Street.”

Could Be A “Canary In The Coal Mine” For The Stock Market

/in , /by

Tom Essaye said that cheap AI stock valuations could signal that investors are growing fearful that the data center boom could come to a halt.

Why Oracle’s recent credit downgrade could be a warning sign for stocks

According to Tyler Richey, a technical analyst at Sevens Report Research, it could be a “canary in the coal mine” for the stock market.

The ratings agency cut Oracle’s rating from BBB, citing heavy infrastructure spending and it’s high exposure to OpenAI as risks to its ability to meet its debt obligations. While the news went relatively unnoticed in the stock market, Sevens Report says equity investors should pay attention, as it could be an early warning of bigger issues on the horizon.

“ORCL very well may turn out to be the first of the mega-cap-tech ‘Hyperscalers’ to be rolling over into what could (and is increasingly likely to) prove to be the early stages of a longer-term, cyclical bear market for equities,” Richey wrote in a July 13 client note.

“A higher trending junk bond yield index with stocks trading near all-time highs is a troublesome combination,” Richey said.

“Bottom line, the ORCL downgrade last week served as a stark reminder that critical signals from the bond market can be subtle at first, but offer both fair warning of a potential downturn, and a rare opportunity to take action to protect principle in riskier equity and bond market holdings,” Richey said.

The AI Trade Has Been More Volatile Advises Tom Essaye

/in , /by

The AI Trade: How to Navigate Today’s More Nuanced Tech Boom

The AI trade has been a more volatile influence on markets so far in 2026 – and this price action reveals the it’s starting to become more nuanced. Understanding that nuance is now important for understanding if the market can still rally without AI leadership, advises Tom Essaye, president of the Sevens Report.

Prior to 2026, the AI trade was basically a rising tide that lifted all tech boats regardless of their position in the AI/tech value chain. However, that’s changed. Now, there are three distinct groups/subsectors within the AI trade and they do not all trade together.

In fact, there’s growing evidence they may trade inversely to one another (at least partially and from time to time). Right now, the AI sector in the markets can be loosely grouped into three distinct buckets:

* Receivers of Capital (ROCs). These are the AI/data center infrastructure industries such as memory, semiconductors, networking, cloud storage, computing power, etc. These sectors have surged for most of 2026 as they are “receiving” the hundreds of billions of dollars being spent by the hyperscalers to build out AI data centers.

* Spenders of Capital (SOCs). These are the hyperscalers. They are the ones spending the hundreds of billions of dollars to build and manage AI data centers and create computing and memory capacity to support the rollout of AI across the economy.

* Software/Disrupted Sectors (SaaS). These are the sectors that may be at risk of having their business models “disrupted” (which is just financial media speak for damaged). AI could potentially replace these software solutions and skills and damage these companies’ long-term prospects.

Bottom line: Take stock of tech allocations to make sure they aren’t dramatically overweight semiconductors, memory, SaaS, hyperscalers, etc. Instead, have balance across the various parts of the AI value chain, including ROCs, SOCs and SaaS. That way, as the AI trade continues to evolve, you have balanced exposure to whichever part is taking a leadership role at that time.

Tom Essaye – Staying Cautious With The Magnificent Seven Names Into Earnings. 

/in , /by

One chart reveals why investors are concerned about earnings from Microsoft, Amazon, and other hyperscalers

“For me, it’s going to be about earnings with the Mag 7. It’s going to be about the capex number. What’s happening with free cash flow. And what is their guidance and how we turn all of this into real money sooner than later,” Sevens Report Research founder Tom Essaye said on Yahoo Finance’s Opening Bid.

Essaye is staying cautious about the Magnificent Seven names heading into earnings.

Tom Essaye Talks About Netflix with Yahoo Finance Executive Editor

I think that this is a very smart move by Meta, Says Tom Essaye

Why Netflix is a lot less ‘compelling’ than these 2 media stocks

Sevens Report Research founder Tom Essaye chat with Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi about why Netflix isn’t a compelling buy in the media/entertainment space.

You know, over the past couple of years, Netflix has pulled levers to increase profitability by cracking down on sharing, by introducing, you know, more aggressive advertising, that sort of thing. But in the end, they’re now kind of being driven by their show slate and as you said, they have not had a hit in a while and that’s a problem.

Now, certainly the decline makes it, you know, somewhat attractive maybe on a value basis, but I agree with Thomas, it’s a show me stock. You have to see that there’s some sort of a of a turnaround or something coming down the pike that you can get excited about.

I actually agree with you, Brian. I think if I’m going to allocate some dollars to entertainment and sort of content, I would prefer Disney.
