Apple picks Intel for US chip production and warns of memory shortages — ride th

Created

Thesis

Intel securing the Apple contract validates their domestic manufacturing turnaround story and brings sudden investor confidence to the stock. The ripple effect of Apple's supply chain shifts means money is actively rotating into other hardware and memory suppliers like SanDisk and Western Digital. When an industry giant like Apple makes structural changes to where it builds and buys parts, the suppliers involved typically see a multi-week wave of enthusiasm. You can ride this momentum by grabbing shares of Intel and these key memory suppliers while the news is fresh and the trend is just starting.

Strategy approach

Build a rule-based strategy that enters long on a basket of semiconductors (INTC, SNDK, WDC, MU) on the daily timeframe. Entry condition: enter when the stock price breaks above its 20-day simple moving average (SMA) with an ATR(14) reading above the 75th percentile of its 60-day range (indicating a strong momentum breakout). Exit condition: close the position if the price falls below the 10-day SMA, or hold for a maximum of 15 trading days. Apply a 5% trailing stop loss.
