Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
Datetime range analyzed (EST): 2025-10-02 from 13:30 to 19:30 EDT (after-hours included). Note: The uploaded data are intraday/after-hours snapshots for this date; 30-day/10-day context below is inferred from momentum characteristics in this basket and should be confirmed on your charts.
- Semiconductors and components (AMAT, MU, WDC, STX, MPWR, NVMI, KLAC, ASML)
- Tone: Risk-on into the evening. AMAT reversed a dip and pushed back toward 217+ after a 223.6 spike; MU stair-stepped to 184.17; WDC firmed to 131.74; STX ticked 255.5. NVMI recovered to 331.1 by the bell. This looks like continued leadership and dip-buying appetite in semis over the recent stretch.
- Pattern: Higher lows on 30-mins and closes near session highs (AMAT, MU, WDC) suggest momentum continuation.
- Crypto-linked (COIN, MSTR) and ETH/BTC proxies (ETHT, ETHU, BITX)
- Tone: Bid returned late; COIN pushed to 372; MSTR to 351.9; ETH/BTC products firmed. When the ETF complex (ETHT/ETHU/BITX) lifts into the evening, COIN/MSTR typically see follow-through next session.
- Cybersecurity/enterprise software (CRWD, ZS, VEEV, SYM)
- Tone: VEEV printed a high close at 300.79; SYM popped to 64.00 into the final prints; CRWD/ZS were steady. Selective strength in quality software, with breakout behavior (VEEV).
- Industrials/EPC/contractors (URI, PWR, EME, FIX, CW, VMI)
- Tone: Mixed. URI powered to 978; PWR printed a strong after-hours 428.62 vs a 420.9 cash close. EME/FIX/CW/VMI were heavy to flat during cash hours. Watch PWR for continuation if futures are firm.
- Biopharma (AMGN, REGN, LLY, MRUS, NGNE, CRSP, NTLA, ANAB, ADVM)
- Tone: Mixed-to-muted. Big cap (REGN/LLY/AMGN) largely stable; mid/small caps choppy with isolated strength (NGNE popped to 22.00). Gene editing (CRSP/NTLA) flat.
Noticeable patterns
– Leaders closed strong: AMAT, MU, COIN/MSTR, VEEV, WDC, SYM — HOD/near-HOD closes or persistent bid on 30-min bars.
– Crypto complex up together (COIN, MSTR, ETHT/ETHU/BITX) — coordinated strength is constructive for 1–3 day momentum.
– Industrial contractor PWR’s after-hours spike is notable versus peers.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)
Most likely to continue up:
– AMAT, MU, COIN, MSTR, VEEV, WDC, SYM, ASTS, PWR, RACE
Strongest bullish signals:
– AMAT: reclaimed 217 after a 223.6 after-hours spike; strong demand on dips.
– MU: steady grind to 184.17 with buyers into the close.
– COIN/MSTR: rising alongside ETH/BTC proxies late — often sees next-day follow-through.
– VEEV: high close at 300.79 (breakout behavior).
– PWR: sharp after-hours print materially above cash close.
Individual Stock Analysis (setups for the next 1–3 days)

– 30-min view/prediction: Holding 216–217 on the open favors a push into 219.5–221.5. A quick liquidity sweep to ~215–215.5 that reclaims 216 would be constructive.
– 1–3 day price targets: 219.7; 221.8; 223.5–224.5 (stretch)

Risk management and notes
– After-hours moves can exaggerate levels; confirm during regular hours. Use smaller size on open and scale with confirmation.
– If the broader market (tech-heavy indices) gaps down, prioritize relative-strength names (AMAT/MU/VEEV) holding their supports.
– For ATR-based stretches, treat the third target as “stretch” and scale out at the first two targets.
If you want, I can recalc levels and ATR targets from your full 30-day data once available and refine these playbooks further.
