On July 10, Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X ETF (SOXL) declined 5.05% in regular trading, trading at approximately $186.48/share, with turnover of $12.03 billion. The decline was driven by the unwinding of the market's most popular tech strategy — buying chip stocks and selling software stocks — combined with aggressive profit-taking following the prior session's 10%+ surge.

The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index has fallen 12% in July, despite gaining 78% year-to-date and recording its best quarter in history. The semiconductor sector showed broad weakness, with Intel dropping nearly 3%, Micron and SanDisk falling over 2%, and ASML and Marvell declining over 1%. As a triple-leveraged ETF tracking the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, SOXL's losses are mechanically amplified relative to the underlying index movement.

The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in financial instruments that provide 3X daily leveraged exposure to a modified float-adjusted market capitalization-weighted index tracking the thirty largest U.S. listed semiconductor companies. The fund is non-diversified.
