The semiconductor sector , which has been our main leader for years, lost some ground with a 4.5% decline, as Micron failed to move and other stocks saw profit-taking .
You do n't want to be a buyer of Micron shares right now. I bought Micron shares and suffered a small loss. I bought a Micron in , mm, what was it today? Wednesday? Right here.
Then the price dropped from its lowest point in the morning, so I exited the trade immediately and didn't have to deal with all that loss. My loss was this much.
The people who bought there and are still holding the shares, you know, are much bigger losers and are holding onto a losing position. Now, this does not mean that the rally in Micron is over, but it does mean that when we look at the daily chart, we are still stuck in this range.
What would cause the most pain for the most people? Well, I think most people look at Micron's earnings and say, "Hey, that's a great company." "We are all of this and that." Well, the stock has probably dropped to the 50-day moving average, a process of unwinding positions down to that level.
