Dow Futures Dip as Tesla and AI Stocks Sell Off; Apple and Robinhood Flash Buys
Markets posted solid weekly gains but Thursday's AI and tech selloff stole the spotlight. Apple and Robinhood are flashing buy signals worth watching.
Don't let the weekly scorecard fool you. The broader market closed out the week in the green, but Thursday's session felt like a gut punch if you were holding AI names or anything tied to the Sandisk trade. Tesla joined the selloff, and Dow Jones futures are slipping as traders digest the damage.
Here's the thing — weekly gains don't mean much when your positions are bleeding on a Thursday. Sandisk and other AI-adjacent plays got hit hard, rattling confidence in a corner of the market that had been running hot. When momentum names crack like this, it pays to watch which stocks are holding their ground or setting up for a bounce.

That's where Apple and Robinhood come in. Both are reportedly flashing buy signals right now — a tradeable angle you don't want to ignore just because the tape feels messy. Apple is a bellwether; when it sets up, institutional money tends to follow. Robinhood catching a bid signals retail sentiment may be stabilizing faster than the headlines suggest.
The Dow futures pullback looks more like noise than a trend reversal at this point. Tech is doing the heavy lifting in both directions — dragging indexes lower on bad days and powering them higher when sentiment flips. If you're a short-term trader, the AI wreckage creates opportunities on both sides of the trade: potential dead-cat bounces in beaten-down names and continued strength in stocks like Apple that are holding technical levels.
Stay nimble. One rough Thursday doesn't erase a strong week, but it does tell you where the fragility lives. Continue reading at Yahoo.
