On July 14, Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X ETF (SOXL) rose 12.14% in regular trading, trading at $179.96/share, with turnover of $24.2 billion. The sharp rebound followed the previous session's plunge of over 10%, driven by a confluence of oversold bounce dynamics and supportive fundamental catalysts.
On the news front, the Bank of Korea issued a rare bullish statement indicating the global semiconductor market remains in a state of demand exceeding supply, with the AI-driven chip super cycle expected to extend well beyond historical averages. Bank of America Securities further noted that the recent semiconductor pullback represents a normal market correction rather than a signal of weakening AI demand, projecting global cloud computing and AI infrastructure capex to approach $1.5 trillion by 2027. The prior session's selloff was triggered by extreme crowding after semiconductor-themed ETFs attracted over 100 billion yuan in net inflows over 15 trading days, compounded by the unwinding of the popular buy-chips-sell-software strategy. As a triple-leveraged product, SOXL amplifies gains when the underlying Philadelphia Semiconductor Index stabilizes.
