All eyes on PCE as inflation test looms for U.S. markets
U.S. markets are likely to stay focused on inflation ahead of the May Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) report due tomorrow night, which is the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge. Consensus expectations point to headline PCE rising 4.1% year-on-year (YoY), up from 3.8% in April and marking the highest reading since April 2023, while monthly PCE is forecast at +0.5% month-on-month (MoM). Core PCE is expected at +0.4% MoM and 3.3% YoY. The anticipated increase is largely attributed to elevated energy prices, with economists describing inflation as remaining sticky in the near term despite expectations that price pressures could ease later this year as oil prices moderate and tariff-related effects fade. Investors will be watching the PCE release closely for clues on the Fed's

Option Focus | SPCX Sees $30 Million Deep ITM Put Block, Synthetic Long Fails to Offset Broadly Bearish Tone
SPCX shares closed at $156.11 on Tuesday, up 0.98%, but activity in the options market painted a more cautious picture. A deep in-the-money put purchase worth more than $30 million stood out as the session’s most notable trade, while a mix of bullish and bearish structures emerged across the tape. Overall, options flow suggested a defensive bias, with downside protection attracting the bulk of institutional capital. Options Metrics SPCX's implied volatility (IV) stood at 94.07%, with its IV percentile reaching 98.58%, indicating that option premiums are trading near the upper end of their historical range and remain relatively expensive.

AI Supercycle Litmus Test: Will Micron’s Q3 Print Defy the Sector Pullback?
$Micron Technology(MU)$'s fiscal Q3 2026 earnings, arriving on June 24, 2026, have become a high-stakes "litmus test" for the broader AI infrastructure rally. After a recent 13% pre-earnings plunge, the market is intensely focused on whether the "memory supercycle"—driven by extreme demand for AI-related high-bandwidth memory (HBM)—remains intact or is showing signs of exhaustion. Analysis of the Fiscal Q3 2026 Print The narrative around Micron has shifted from a cyclical commodity memory maker to a vital pillar of the AI hardware ecosystem. The Expectations: Consensus estimates are aggressive, projecting revenue of ~$34.66 billion (up ~272% year-over-year) and EPS of ~$19.95 (up ~942% YoY).

Why Alphabet’s Dow Entry Is Not Enough to Calm AI Fears
$Alphabet(GOOG)$ just received one of the biggest badges of corporate respect in the stock market. It is joining the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Normally, that should sound bullish. The $Dow Jones(.DJI)$ is one of the most famous stock indexes in the world. Being added to it is symbolic. It tells investors that a company is no longer just a growth story. It has become part of the economic establishment. But Alphabet’s stock is not acting like a company receiving a crown. Instead, it is still under pressure. That is what makes today’s setup interesting. Alphabet is being welcomed into the Dow at the same time investors are questioning whether Google is losing ground in the AI race. This is the contradict

XLF Rally from Blue Box Delivers Risk‑Free Setup
XLF (State Street Financial Select Sector SPDR ETF) has shown a bullish impulse since the June 3, 2026 low. The 1‑hour Elliott Wave structure favors further upside as the ETF has been making higher highs and higher lows, which supports a buy‑the‑dip approach at defined blue box areas. Elliott Wave Technical View From June 19 2026 The rally from the June 3 low is unfolding as an impulse. The advance completed wave ((iii)) at $54.89. A corrective wave ((iv)) followed, unfolding as a zigzag: Wave (a) ended at $53.90. Wave (b) bounced to $54.61. Wave (c) reached the blue‑box area near $53.62–$53.00 (equal‑legs zone). Buyers were expected to appear in that blue box, offering a low‑risk long entry and the potential for at least a three‑wave bounce. XLF Rally from Blue Box Delivers Risk‑Fr

Elliott Wave Perspective: Exxon Mobil (XOM) Bearish Cycle Signals Further Weakness
Exxon Mobil (XOM) continues to exhibit an incomplete bearish sequence from the March 30, 2026 high, maintaining a bias toward further downside. The broader structure suggests that the stock has yet to reach its extreme target zone, defined by the 100%–161.8% Fibonacci extension. This area, located between $107.9 and $129.2, is where buyers are expected to emerge and potentially stabilize the decline. Until then, the prevailing momentum favors weakness. In the short term, the decline from the June 4, 2026 high is unfolding as an impulsive structure. Within this move, wave 1 terminated at $149.3, followed by a corrective rally in wave 2 that ended at $153.81. The stock then nested lower, with wave ((i)) concluding at $147.78 and wave ((ii)) retracing to $152.52. This sequence reinforced the

Market Waits for Micron to Save the Day? Can AI Pass Its Next Big Test?
$Micron Technology(MU)$ reports FY2026 Q3 earnings after the close on June 24, and the timing couldn't be more important. Just last week, markets were rattled by Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's hawkish debut. Global central banks are increasingly leaning toward tightening, while investors have started questioning whether AI valuations have simply gone too far. In short, the market is looking for a catalyst to stabilize sentiment. Tonight, Micron faces that test. Micron has become the market's preferred way to verify whether AI spending remains as strong as investors believe. If cloud providers are still aggressively buying HBM, DRAM, and NAND, Micron's results should reveal it more clearly than almost anyone else. The question isn't just whe
TOPMicron can help revive the AI trade if it confirms three things: strong HBM demand, continued DRAM pricing power, and higher forward guidance. A strong report would support the view that AI infrastructure spending remains robust rather than peaking. Among memory beneficiaries, I'd rank them: 1. SK Hynix (HBM leader) 2. Micron (best US-listed AI memory play) 3. Sandisk (highest beta) 4. Western Digital 5. Seagate For new money, I prefer Micron or SK Hynix. The others are more cyclical storage bets. With MU already up ~260% YTD, this earnings report is less about results and more about expectations. Even a beat may not be enough if guidance merely meets lofty forecasts. I'd rather wait for the print. Missing the first 10% of a rally is often preferable to catching a 20% gap-down. If Micron delivers and the stock holds its gains after earnings, that is usually a stronger signal than gambling beforehand.
