Semiconductor strength will continue, target 208
SOXL attempted a breakout above its channel and above April's highs, but got rejected and dropped back down to support at the 50-hour moving average. Here it's showing renewed strength, with volume turning green and candlesticks looking bullish. I think it will make another run at 202, this time pushing through to previous highs around 208.
SOXL has strong upward catalysts in the form of strong earnings and guidance this quarter. MU got an earnings beat earlier this quarter, and its recent ascending triangle break suggests it may rise to 51.50, for $4 per share upside. (However, MU is 5% overvalued compared to its average analyst price target of $45 per share.) We've just had earnings beats from Taiwan Semiconductor, Texas Instruments, and Intel that imply the sector is recovering in the second half of the year. TSM has 17.5% upside to the average analyst price target! Intel-- SOXL's largest holding-- can still gain $2.50 per share before it reaches the average analyst price target. QCOM, another large holding, has 12.5% upside to the average analyst price target, with earnings coming up tomorrow. A beat by QCOM could trigger the run up through the 202 resistance level.
As always, this is just an idea about how the market will move, not investment advice.

AMD's downward revision of its revenue forecast changes the outlook for semiconductors. Depending what happens with QCOM, SOXL could feel the hurt tomorrow.

Yet another big game changer in the form of bad earnings from Qualcomm! Add to that the Fed's decision on interest rates, and we should see this plummet out of its channel. Personally I'm glad, because I've been reluctant to buy this until it gets a big correction lower. I don't like the risk of buying so high.
