+2.01%

Wall Street loves ASML

For the first six months of 2026, Nvidia (
NVDA
0.18%
) hasn't led the artificial intelligence (AI) trade. It opened the year at $189.84 on Jan. 2 and closed at around $200 on June 30. That's a roughly 5% gain.
Anyone who invested $10,000 to start the year hasn't seen much progress in their Nvidia investment. Still, there's a market sector that can open up new revenue opportunities and reward pat

It's Tuesday, 1:45 p.m., and do you know where the Nasdaq is?
It's down 0.65% -- but that's not a patch on the damage being done today to the Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X Shares ETF (
SOXL
+11.12%
), which crashed 14% this afternoon.
And Samsung is to blame.

Shares of Micron Technology (
MU
+6.04%
) have been coming under pressure of late. While the company has been generating strong numbers in recent quarters and its valuation is seemingly low with respect to earnings, it's been falling significantly in the past few days.
It's now down close to 30% from its 52-week high and is well below $1,000. Could now be the time to load up on the tech stock?

Only one company in history has ever been worth $5 trillion: Nvidia (
NVDA
0.26%
) itself. The chipmaker first crossed the mark last October, then slipped back below it. After closing Monday at about $195.55 per share, the chipmaker carried a market value of roughly $4.74 trillion. That leaves it less than 6% below a milestone no other business has ever touched.
So how close is Nvidia, exactly, a

Micron Technology (
MU
+7.40%
) has had a phenomenal 2026 so far, rising around 240%, though it was up around 300% until a few days ago before artificial intelligence (AI)-centric stocks started to sell off. Regardless, Micron has had a great run, and it isn't looking to slow down anytime soon.
Micron recently announced another jaw-dropping quarter with huge growth and incredible expectations for
