SOXS is trading at $42.62, down 5.27%, as semiconductor and AI-chip stocks rebound broadly.

  • Intel gained 7.67%, AMD 6.36%, Micron 5.5%, and Nvidia 2.54%, pressuring the inverse ETF.
  • Lower Treasury yields, easing oil prices, and renewed confidence in AI demand strengthened risk appetite after the Federal Reserve’s September 16 rate hike.
  • The move is sector-driven rather than company-specific; the Philadelphia semiconductor index rose for a fourth consecutive day as investors looked past recent AI-spending concerns.
