On July 13, Direxion Daily MU Bull 2X Shares (MUU) fell 5.31% overnight, trading at $707.0/share, with turnover of $29.15 million.
On the news front, the three global memory chip giants collectively announced aggressive capacity expansion within a short period. Samsung and SK Hynix committed a combined $880 billion in investment, while Micron Technology unveiled a $250 billion domestic investment plan targeting production through 2035. The sheer scale of combined capital expenditure has intensified market concerns over mid-to-long-term overcapacity in the memory chip sector.
The underlying stock Micron Technology has now retreated more than 20% from its high of $1,255, entering a technical bear market. Notable short-seller Michael Burry reportedly maintains an open short position established earlier, reflecting persistent bearish conviction. As a 2x leveraged ETF, the fund structurally amplifies the magnitude of the underlying decline, exacerbating selling pressure during periods of sustained weakness.
