🔥⚡📉 NVDA at the Apex of Chaos: Flows, Fed, and September’s Trapdoor 📉⚡🔥
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $Broadcom(AVGO)$ $Micron Technology(MU)$
🚨 Strategic Inflection Point
I am fully convinced that Nvidia’s 3.22% drop to $169.97 is not just another dip; it is the epicenter of a seismic risk-off rotation tearing through the Magnificent 7 and semiconductors. Top flow has flipped bearish, supply chain uncertainty lingers, and September, the cruelest month in 70 years of equity history, has arrived. This is not noise; it is the battleground defining the market’s next move.
📊 Market Snapshot
The Magnificent 7 all bled red to start the week: Tesla −1.83%, Meta −1.89%, Amazon −2.36%, Alphabet −2.22%, Microsoft −1.81%, Apple −1.80%. Nvidia led the carnage, down −3.22%. Semiconductors were in full retreat with AMD −2.8%, Micron −3.1%, Qualcomm −2.5%, and the SOXX index −2.4%. The broader market wasn’t immune; the Nasdaq shed −1.9%, and the VIX spiked to 17.8, confirming rising fear. $15M+ in single-leg, <=90DTE calls were bought on $VIX today compared to just $125k in puts. Heavy downside risk protection…or something more?! 👀
💸 Flow Sentiment
Nvidia dominated options flow today, and the tide was decisively bearish. Options net drift flipped negative, with puts crossing calls across Mag 7 names. Net GEX contracted sharply, reflecting dealer hedging unwinds. DEX showed institutions leaning defensive, with $4.2B in notional put buying last week. Retail activity was muted; hedge funds and algorithms drove the rout.
📰 Catalysts Driving the Storm
• Supply clarity: Nvidia publicly shut down “sold-out” rumors, affirming ample H100/H200 supply and zero impact from H20 on Blackwell or H100/H200 production. Yet whispers of overcapacity persist, unnerving investors.
• Geopolitical headwinds: U.S. restrictions forced Nvidia to halt H20 production for China, blocking ~$2.5B in Q1 revenue. CEO Jensen Huang has framed a $50B China TAM, but regulatory shadows still loom over Blackwell.
• Hedge fund repositioning: Leading funds cut U.S. large-cap exposure by 15% since July, pivoting toward Chinese tech amid tariff noise, with Nvidia a prime trim target.
• Macro turbulence: Fed Governor Waller reaffirmed rate cuts are likely to begin in September, but the 10-year Treasury yield hit 4.69%. Gold surged to a record $2,625/oz, the dollar index (DXY) slipped −0.3%, and Friday’s jobs report now looms as the volatility trigger.
📉 Technicals & Cycles
• Key levels: $165.50 is the line in the sand. A break below opens downside momentum to $147, aligning with the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement from June lows.
• Moving averages: NVDA slipped below its 50-day MA ($171) for the first time since May, sliding 4% to ~$167 in a four-day, −7% pullback that erased $340B in market value. Next supports are $160, then $145. Despite the selloff, NVDA is still +78% off its April lows and remains the world’s largest chipmaker at $4.1T market cap.
• Indicators: Daily RSI sits at 54, trending lower, while MACD signals bearish divergence. VWAP rejection at $172 reinforces downside pressure.
• Compression: 4H and 30m Keltner/Bollinger bands confirm a bearish resolution; momentum bias remains lower.
• Cycle roadmap: Nvidia’s 2-year resets have historically delivered 100%+ gains post-drawdowns, but interim corrections average −25% to −40%. The next generational buy zone is April/May 2026.
📆 Seasonal Gravity
September’s track record is brutal, with equities averaging −1.1% returns and nine of the 40 worst months since 1950. Hedge fund de-risking, Fed uncertainty, and tariff risks compound the pressure this year. The S&P 500’s 10% YTD gain hangs by a thread as volatility rises.
💡 Strategic Verdict
This isn’t a dip to blindly buy; it is a structural unwind where flows, macro, geopolitics, and seasonality align. Short-term traders can ride momentum under $165.50, targeting $147–150. Long-term conviction players wait for that zone or the April/May 2026 reset for optimal entry. Cash is and forever will be king in this storm; preserve capital, stay nimble, and strike when the dust settles.

- Cool Cat Winston·2025-09-03TOP📉I’m looking at that 50-day MA break on NVDA and it really does change the tone, especially when you line it up with the $165.50 pivot and the $147 fib target you mentioned. Reminds me of how AMD lost momentum last quarter once it slipped below its own trendline 📉6Report
- Hen Solo·2025-09-03TOP📊The cycle roadmap you laid out is spot on. Those 2-year resets delivering 100%+ gains are consistent, but the -25 to -40% interim drops shouldn’t be ignored. That $160 then $145 support setup looks very much like what we saw in MSFT during its 2022 pullback.4Report
- Kiwi Tigress·2025-09-03TOP我对您如何将NVDA跌破50日均线的走势感到非常震惊,因为这不仅仅是随机下跌,而是结构性转变,而且您指出了流量和宏观如何放大它。我一直在思考像MU这样的半成品是如何与相同的周期风险联系在一起的,这使得147美元的fib目标更加真实。你认为现金为王的方式有所不同,因为资本保值在快速回撤中被低估了。2Report
- Tui Jude·2025-09-03TOPI’ve been tracking the macro backdrop and your call on gold hitting record highs alongside NVDA weakness makes total sense. The $340B erased in four days is staggering, and it feels a lot like when GOOGL gave back months of gains after its AI hype spike.1Report
- Queengirlypops·2025-09-03TOPThe fact NVDA shed $340B in just four days and still sits at a $4.1T cap shows how massive this cycle has become. I really like how you linked hedge fund repositioning with the seasonal drag because September always messes with positioning. Adding in the RSI at 54 trending down and MACD divergence makes it crystal clear we’re looking at a downside momentum setup, and it feels like one of those rare moments where the broader Mag 7 correlation makes TSLA and AMZN part of the same story.1Report
- Enid Bertha·2025-09-03When AVGO reports earnings tomorrow, NVDA will fly back up to above $180LikeReport
