Chip stocks 'hit a wall,' but the market hasn’t

US stocks hit new highs amid multiple worries, and money flow shows that risk appetite is heating up across the board. After the AI hedge fund meltdown, chip stocks actually became a buy signal, with investors pouring over $11 billion into semiconductor ETFs in just two trading days, prompting a big rebound in related funds. High-yield bond funds saw $4 billion in inflows in a single week, a two-year high, while Bitcoin ETFs had $500 million in net inflows. The BofA Bull & Bear Index rose to its highest level since 2021. Market sentiment is upbeat, but the 30-year Treasury yield staying high is putting some pressure. Weak jobs data actually boosted the stock market, and analysts believe the economy is still strong, seeing every pullback as a buying opportunity, with money continuing to flow into risk assets.
