SOXS.MX is trading 3.86% up as semiconductor shares extend their selloff, benefiting this inverse semiconductor ETF.

  • The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell about 5%; NVIDIA, Micron, SanDisk, and Marvell declined sharply.
  • Elevated Treasury yields, including the 30-year yield near 5.33%, are pressuring high-growth technology valuations; oil above $90 raises inflation concerns.
  • The move appears sector-driven rather than company-specific amid US-Iran tensions, persistent bond-market pressure, and reduced risk appetite toward semiconductor valuations; traders await the Federal Reserve’s 2:00 PM minutes.
