Semis below the EMAs, flow leaning bullish, KOSPI doing its part: $SMH faded intraday again and most names are still sitting below the 21d and 9d EMAs. The counterpoint: options flow yesterday was light but skewed heavily bullish with $SMH in the key orders, and KOSPI closed back above its 21W EMA, a level it hasn't closed below since April 2025. Not enough to get excited yet. Need the EMAs recovered across the board before this base has legs.

Qatar stepping in between US and Iran. Watch energy.: Qatar is mediating between the US and Iran, per NYT, trying to pull both sides back from the brink. If talks gain any traction, whatever geopolitical risk premium is still in oil and energy names could start bleeding out.

Iran deescalation talks: oil risk premium fades further: Qatar is mediating between the US and Iran to pull both sides back from the brink, per NYT. If talks hold, the geopolitical risk bid in oil keeps leaking out — and the market was already fading Hormuz drama before this. Bearish read for energy names like $XOM and $CVX if the deescalation narrative sticks.

$SPY post-open: strongest tape of the week, 753 pin or 755 magnet: SPY books strengthened from pre-market and the structure is reading as the best of the week. Supportive tape, dips should get bought. Light volume keeps us pinned around 753, any real volume and the 755 magnet takes over. Nothing heroic.

Ceasefire over. Iran escalation risk back on the table.: Trump posted the US-Iran ceasefire is officially done. Iran asked to continue talks and the US agreed, but the standdown is off. Market's been fading the geopolitical risk premium on oil for weeks. If this heats up, that could flip.

$MU dealer support stacking at 900: $MU structure looks soft but dealer positioning is showing massive support underneath, especially at 900. Whale flow is backing the bull case even while price drifts. Watch 900 as the floor.
