The Weekend Rip
Happy Weekend!

The Iran war ran the tape all week as oil swung from below $100 on ceasefire optimism Monday to above $105 by Friday, the Dow entered correction territory, and the S&P 500 logged its fifth straight week of losses, its longest streak since 2022. Arm's surprise move into self-built chips briefly reignited the semiconductor trade midweek, a leaked Anthropic model reignited the SaaSpocalypse selloff, Carnival cut its profit outlook on fuel costs, and Bitcoin got liquidated on options expiry as risk appetite collapsed into the weekend. Trump extended the Iran deadline to April 6, gold posted its fourth straight weekly loss, and Macquarie warned oil could hit $200 if the war runs through June.
Let's recap and prep you for the week ahead. 📝
Monday 🕊️: Trump paused Iran strikes and oil dropped below $100, triggering the S&P 500's biggest single-session jump in a year before Iran denied any talks and gains faded to +1.2%, a perfect summary of every relief rally this war has produced. Cruise lines, Super Micro dip buyers, and lithium names all surged on the oil drop while Kalshi got hit with a bipartisan Senate bill and two pilots died in a LaGuardia runway collision.
Tuesday ⚔️: Markets drifted sideways as peace talk optics and paratrooper deployment rumors kept risk appetite thin, with energy the only sector with a clean bid while everything else faded into the close. Arm's surprise move into self-built chips was the real story after hours, signaling a more aggressive silicon land grab that would set up Wednesday's semiconductor rip.
Wednesday 😟: Arm's AGI CPU announcement and Jensen Huang's $1T chip demand forecast reignited the semiconductor trade, lifting AMD, Intel, and Marvell while the S&P, Nasdaq, and Russell all closed green. The relief was fragile, with Iran floating its own Hormuz terms and U.S. paratroopers still in play, keeping the rally built on a foundation that could crack any morning.
Thursday ⚖️: Markets slid to a multi-month low as oil pushed back above $100 and landmark social media addiction verdicts put Section 230 protections in play, hammering tech and ad-tech names broadly. Google's TurboQuant memory compression breakthrough hit semiconductors with fresh capex doubt, and risk appetite stayed thin heading into Friday's data.
Friday 💀: The Dow entered correction territory and the S&P 500 logged its fifth straight week of losses as oil held above $100, Macquarie warned crude could hit $200 if the war runs through June, and the 10-year Treasury hit its highest level since July. Anthropic's model leak reignited the SaaSpocalypse, Carnival cut its profit outlook on fuel costs, Bitcoin got liquidated on options expiry, and Trump extended the Iran deadline to April 6.
