Portfolio Pursuit

Big day for semiconductors

February 26, 2025

Heading into Nvidia earnings the tech sector had another volatile day. I was able to start the day and execute on the strategy that I had planned after reading the SMCI 10-K last night, but made some misjudgements on the trajectory of a couple swings that pushed me into the red for the day.

It should have been a green day but I bailed on my SMCI puts before I should have. There is a lull in trading around lunch New York time that I have observed on a lot of the tech stocks. I pulled smaller profits from those SMCI positions before the post-lunch slide, which is frustrating considering the other options that went the other way.
