SOXL is trading 6.5% up at $121.69 after August CPI reportedly matched forecasts, easing immediate fears of an upside inflation surprise.
- Major indexes are advancing more than 0.5%, while semiconductor shares recently participated in broad sector rallies.
- The move appears macro- and sector-driven rather than company-specific; SOXL’s 3x daily leverage amplifies semiconductor-stock gains.
- Elevated Treasury yields and oil prices above $100 remain risks.
