    Midterm chip pattern keeps semis in focus after strong pre-election run

    Question

    Midterm chip pattern keeps semis in focus after strong pre-election run

    Direct answer

    A historically strong pre-event semiconductor run can trigger factor de-risking or profit-taking in SMH and QQQ if traders fade the midterm-election pattern.
