BlockBeats News, July 21st, according to Hyperinsight Monitoring, as reported, the whale that was previously tracking the "long semiconductor sector" concentratedly closed out 8 long positions in semiconductor and storage-focused tech stocks on the morning of July 17th, with a total nominal amount of approximately $17.869 million, realizing a total loss of approximately $9.681 million.

Compared to the closing price on July 17th, 6 out of the 8 targets have reclaimed lost ground. The AI computing power asset NBIS rebounded the most (+16.0%), followed by MRVL (+13.0%) and CRCL (+12.0%), with the three storage companies MU (+10.3%), SNDK (+9.4%), and SKHX (+6.6%) in the middle. Meanwhile, domestic companies CXMT (-0.8%) and ZHIPU (-16.4%) are still trading below their cut-off prices on that day, and this round of recovery is basically driven by the U.S. and South Korea's semiconductor market.

In hindsight, this move almost hit the low point of the phase. If they had held their positions at that time, the theoretical loss for this combination would have been $1.6317 million less, equivalent to 17% of the original loss. The details of each target are as follows:

- Marvell (MRVL): Average price $317.2, closing price $182.8, actual loss $4.309 million; could have lost $0.744 million less;

- SanDisk (SNDK): Average price $2183.6, closing price $1356.32, actual loss $1.909 million; could have lost $0.287 million less;

- SK Hynix (SKHX): Average price $1620.2, closing price $1175.3, actual loss $1.865 million; could have lost $0.338 million less;

- Micron Technology (MU): Average price $1111, closing price $826.2, actual loss $0.51 million; could have lost $0.148 million less;

- Nebius (NBIS): Average price $253.80, closing price $166.5, actual loss $0.463 million; could have lost $0.144 million less;

- Circle (CRCL): Average price $76.59, closing price $60.2, actual loss $0.212 million; could have lost $0.0951 million less;

- Zhipu (ZHIPU): Average price $287.1, closing price $182.2, actual loss $0.405 million; the floating loss from holding it until now has instead increased to $0.5314 million;

- ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT): Average price $7.3, liquidation average price $6.8, realized loss approximately $5,808; if held to date, unrealized loss is approximately $6,576.

Need to clarify: The rebound only changed the depth of the loss, as the whale chased the rally at a high level, and the current prices of the 8 positions are still far below their original cost, even if held to this day, it is still impossible to break even; ZHIPU and CXMT are trading even lower than their liquidation prices by 16.4% and 0.8%, respectively. For this whale, the decision made on July 17th was whether to lose $9.68 million or $8.02 million.
