Dan Bin: The recent de-leveraging pullback is a necessary path, and the rebound of the Nasdaq in August is expected to continue until Nvidia's earnings report

Dongfang Harbor Chairman Dan Bin expressed his views this morning, stating that in July, the chip sector experienced a sharp decline and massive leveraged liquidations, but in the grand AI cycle, such a level of correction is both a necessary path and a sign of market health.

The market has yet to fully understand the infinite demand potential of AI as an "intelligent" product. Concerns about capital expenditures from giants have echoed the early story of Amazon AWS, but the opportunities in AI are far greater. Funds are flowing back from low-quality tech stocks to high-quality targets, confirming the judgment of a "return of the king" by the end of 2026. Storage chips still face cyclical risks and high volatility, so it is advisable to wait for technical repairs, with a more optimistic view on fundamentally solid companies like Nvidia, Broadcom, and TSMC, as funds will flow more towards quality application layers.

On the other hand, the business of hyperscale cloud providers is accelerating growth, with a large backlog of orders and an increasing growth rate, indicating that the previous punishment of capital expenditures was a misjudgment, and these investments will translate into certain future revenues. Looking ahead to August, the Nasdaq's rebound is expected to continue until Nvidia's earnings report, and the tech sector's rolling adjustment is nearing its end, with funds accelerating back into high-quality tech stocks.

In terms of specific sector operations, it is currently not advisable to blindly chase high prices in the chip and storage (memory) sectors. However, investors can adopt a short-term band trading strategy of buying on dips until the storage sector completely emerges from its bottoming pattern on a technical level.
