  • Bear side:

Pre-market brief — Monday, Nov 9, 2026

Published Monday, Nov 9, 2026, 8:45 AM ET

  • NVDA is 176.95 premarket, down 5.2% from Friday’s 186.64 close.
  • Nvidia’s board opened an independent investigation after NYT and FT reports that Huang was the target of a foreign intelligence effort.
  • The board says it has “no reason to believe” national security or company secrets were compromised, and Huang stays CEO while the review runs (CNBC, Reuters via Investing.com).
  • So far the selling is mostly in Nvidia itself
  • TSMC closed up 4.7% in Taiwan.
  • NVDA was already below its 200-day SMA of 204.67 and its Sep 14 low of 208.93, with RSI at 30.8.

Friday confirmed both weekly exits, and acting on them is your call:

  • TSM: weekly close 375.44, below the 390 exit. It’s still above the Jul 29 low of 372.72 and is 382.04 premarket.
  • ASML: weekly close 1424.75, below the 1500 exit. It’s 1486.83 premarket.

DDOG is 179.04, still below its 243.15 exit-review level and its 200-day SMA of 200.18.

No holding changed category since Friday. The levels now use Friday’s final close, and the levels page is updated.

  • AMZN is still the only name holding trend. It closed at 259.30, above all your indicators, and is up 3.3% premarket at 267.88.
  • CRWD (216.90, just above its weekly 21 EMA of 216.21) and SPCX (134.27, below its weekly 21 EMA of 144.49) are pulling back.
  • Below their 200-day SMAs: GOOG, NVDA, TSM, ASML, MRVL, DDOG, BE, INTC, NBIS and CRDO. Most are up 1–4% premarket.

  • New buys stay paused.

  • QQQ’s weekly close of 656.10 is below its weekly 21 EMA of 704.49 and below the 700 floor.
  • It’s 662.90 premarket, up 1.0%, and still below its 200-day SMA of 680.89.

  • This week brings October CPI Tuesday (expected 3.9% headline, 2.8% core) and PPI Friday.

  • After Friday’s 165K payrolls, CME FedWatch prices about an 80% chance of a December hike (Investing.com), and the 10-year yield is 4.85% (CNBC).
  • CoreWeave, Cisco and Applied Materials report this week, and NBIS reports Wednesday.
  • The data-center restrictions behind last week’s selloff are still proposals
  • Nothing has been enacted.

On the watchlist, AMAT, ALAB, CIEN, CEG, COHR and VST are up 2–3.5% premarket and CRWV is down 1.8%. Those are premarket quotes only, with no indicator check, so none counts as a setup.

    • Replies and throwaway posts skipped.
    • Every stance, level, and number is the author’s opinion or claim, unverified.
    • Counts are approximate hand-tags.
  • Quiet: @MrTinvests, @RoyLMattox, @EMostaque.
  • Heaviest posters: @Mr_Derivatives, @kimmonismus, @TheLongInvest, @ChrisGPT.

Summary

  • Overall: mixed, leaning risk-on on price action, with the chart-focused accounts calling it a countertrend rally.
  • The authors describe a broad relief rally despite NVDA falling: @KobeissiLetter says the Nasdaq 100 was up about 3.2% while NVDA was down about 6.5%, with US stocks adding about $1.5T
  • @Mr_Derivatives posts VIX going 16.50 to 28.50 to 19.50 over three days.
  • Caution:
    • @markminervini calls it “another snapback rally within a broader downtrend” with few stocks setting up and no follow-through day yet
    • @TheProfInvestor says QQQ is still inside last week’s big red candle and below major resistance
    • @Mr_Derivatives says QQQ touched its 200-day MA (he puts it near $680) and looked set to close just under it.
  • Themes:
