Good morning. Stocks briefly hit all-time highs on Friday, but sold off quickly. The reason? Stalled talks in Congress over the latest stimulus package. Some lawmakers want an additional $600 check… or a $1,200 check… on top of the $900 billion number already being talked about.

The King of Semiconductors is Coiling for a Move Higher

That's because shares have sat out the most recent rally, instead trading in a tight range the past few months. Like a coiling spring, when a move happens, it could be huge. That's why at least one trader sees a big move higher.

Quote of the Day
