Datetime window analyzed (EST): 2025-12-04 from 10:30–13:00 (with a few prints as early as 08:30). Note: Only intraday 30-min bars for today were provided; 30-day/10-day context isn’t available in the feed. Conclusions focus on current momentum, relative strength, and volume expansion likely to carry 1–3 days.
Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
– Precious metals/miners (HYMC, SA, NUGT, BTG, IAG, AEM, RGLD, FNV, GROY, MUX): Broad bid with steady pushes higher and constructive closes (SA to 30.30, GROY to 4.375, IAG to 15.285, NUGT held gains). Flows favor gold exposure; dips were bought.
– Copper/industrial metals (TGB, SCCO, TMQ): Copper-levered names firm (TGB to 5.365, TMQ to 4.635) while SCCO was stable. Tone is risk-on for base metals.
– Semis/Photonics/Electronics (FN, TTMI, SMTC, AEIS, LASR, TER, COHR, WOLF, ONTO, SANM): Strong dispersion. Clear leaders: FN (fresh session highs), TTMI (range expansion to 72.85/73.35 HOD), SMTC grind up to 79.20, AEIS/LASR constructive. Laggards: WOLF trend-lower; COHR and TER soft.
– AI/data center/infra (VRT, APLD, FLNC): VRT broke higher toward 185+, strong closing tone. APLD stair-stepped up through 31.40s with rising volume. FLNC reclaimed 23s after early washout, showing buyers control mid-day.
– Industrial contractors/electrical (STRL, PWR, DY, IESC, EME, HUBB, PRIM, POWL): Bid across the complex; STRL and POWL pushed toward session highs; EME, PWR, HUBB firm. Tone suggests continued rotation into quality industrials.
– Medtech/Biotech/Healthcare (PEN, RGTX, RAPT, ACRS, AXGN, GKOS, NTRA, GH; OSCR/ALHC managed care): High-beta biotech momentum (RGTX surged 85.7→94.1 then held upper range). PEN trended to 294–295. ACRS stair-stepped higher to 3.05. OSCR trended to HOD near 17.66. AXGN cooled after an early pop.
– Energy/Oil (FANG): Steady intraday bid back to 161+. Constructive but not explosive.
– Fintech/Consumer/Other (SOFI, OPEN, ULCC): SOFI reclaimed 29.64 with late-day push; ULCC climbed methodically toward 5.
Notable patterns
– Momentum continuations into midday with volume supporting breakouts: VRT, FN, TTMI, STRL, PEN, RGTX, APLD, FLNC.
– Metals complex (gold/copper) acting as steady bid capture: SA, GROY, TGB.
– Divergence within semis favors signal-integrity/PCB/analog subsectors (TTMI, SMTC, FN) over SiC power (WOLF) and some optics (COHR).
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)
Most likely to continue higher: VRT, FN, TTMI, STRL, PEN, RGTX, APLD, FLNC, SA, TGB, OSCR, SMTC.
Strongest bullish signals (closing strength + expansion): VRT, FN, TTMI, STRL, RGTX, APLD.

Risk notes
– We lack 10–30 day context/ATR; treat targets as conservative extensions of today’s realized ranges and nearby supply zones. Tighten risk if indices weaken or leaders lose intraday supports.
