Mag 7 AI spending jitters hit mega-cap tech — back the chip suppliers instead
Created
Thesis
Goldman Sachs notes that we're seeing a generational surge in capital spending, which directly funds the chip suppliers. While the 'Mag 7' stocks lost $2.3 trillion in June due to doubts about their AI returns, investors are pivoting to the companies that actually make the hardware — Micron, Intel, and AMD added a combined $2 trillion in value. This divergence suggests money is rotating from the buyers of AI to the builders of AI, creating a sustainable trend we can ride.
Strategy approach
Build a mean-reversion momentum strategy that enters long MU, AMD, and INTC on D1 when they make a 10-day high while QQQ (MAGS) is in a 10-day low, signaling divergence between chip suppliers and mega-cap tech. Exit on a 15% profit target or 8% stop loss, with a 30-day max hold.
