# Why Direxion Semis Bull 3X (SOXL) fell 35.68% on November 6, 2026

Direxion Semis Bull 3X (SOXL) fell 35.68% on November 6, 2026 — Neocloud oversight sinks chips; Micron leads.

## What happened

The Chip Supply Chain group fell about 12%, with SMH down 10.3%, as the wider tech selloff hit chip stocks after Microsoft tightened oversight of neocloud providers amid data center delays and rising costs.

## Why it moved

SOXL holds a fixed 3x multiple of its index's daily move, so the roughly 10% SMH drop amplified to about −36%. AMD and Marvell were the leading decliners in that move, not its cause.

## Why it matters

This is the Chip Supply Chain theme: equipment makers and broad-semis beta rode the AI capex wave, and Intel's weak guidance and capex doubts are now dragging the complex lower.

## What would break the thesis

Daily resetting means the 3x exposure works in reverse on a rebound, so a sharp SMH recovery would lift SOXL by a similar multiple. Continued capex doubts would keep the group under pressure.
