USTEC is engulfed in uncertainty ahead of the US election
Stock prices in the semiconductor companies declined after reports that the US government instructed major companies to cut China companies from their supply chains. NVIDIA's gains diminished to a 0.48% increase, while the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index dropped by 0.55%.
Additionally, Warren Buffett's decision to sell US stocks and secure cash negatively affected the overall US index. Berkshire Hathaway reduced its stock holdings from 905 million shares at the end of last year to 300 million shares by the end of September, including a significant sell-off of Apple stocks this year.
USTEC briefly tested 20140 but failed to hold above the 20000 threshold. After slipping back to the channel's lower bound, the index awaits further price triggers. If USTEC breaches the resistance after re-entering the channel, the index may gain upward momentum toward the 20680 high. Conversely, if USTEC fails to enter the channel and retreats to 19700, the index may fall further to the support at 19520.
