Today's market is indeed quite miserable, mainly starting from the opening of the South Korean stock market. The KOSPI fell sharply, with core semiconductor stocks like Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix dropping together. The recent rise in the South Korean market has heavily relied on semiconductors, high-bandwidth memory, and AI server demand, so after South Korea fell, market sentiment quickly spread to the US stock market.

In the US market, the most affected stocks are also those related to chips and AI. Companies like Micron, Nvidia, AMD, and Broadcom are all related to AI servers, data center capital expenditures, and the memory cycle. After the sharp decline in South Korean semiconductors, panic sentiment emerged, and with the market becoming more cautious about interest rate expectations, high-valuation tech stocks naturally faced the first wave of risk aversion.

Another key point is that tomorrow is Micron's earnings report. Micron is now no longer just an ordinary memory company; the market sees it as a benchmark for the AI memory cycle and high-bandwidth memory demand. With SK Hynix and Samsung dropping first and Micron's earnings report about to be announced, funds will naturally reduce their positions in advance to avoid any disappointment or insufficient guidance from the earnings report.

Therefore, today's decline is somewhat like a concentrated risk aversion before the earnings report. In the past period, AI has risen too aggressively; as soon as the strongest semiconductors begin to weaken, funds will withdraw first to observe. Especially for a company like Micron, which sits right in the middle of the memory cycle and AI servers, it can easily become an amplifier of market sentiment before the earnings report comes out.

For Bitcoin, it still follows the US stock market and has a hard time maintaining independence. When the Nasdaq and semiconductors fall sharply, the market usually first lowers leverage and increases the cash ratio, affecting both bitcoin:native and altcoins based on risk appetite. The next key point is whether Micron's earnings report can stabilize expectations for AI memory demand. If the earnings report and guidance are strong enough, today may seem more like a quick risk aversion. But if Micron also cannot hold up, semiconductors and risk assets will continue to be under pressure in the short term.
