$GOOGL Q2 EARNINGS
• Revenue $119.8B vs Est. $116.9B

having said that, the sentiment going bearish doesnt have to be because semi fundamentals are bearish, but it could be because people were yolo’ing into names up 4-5x YTD…
SPY is almost at ATH, so this absolutely is a reset and maybe a needed reset even if it has been painful for semis
