Executive Summary

Market color: The S&P 500 closed at a record high as softer-than-expected July wholesale inflation (PPI) eased rate-hike worries and lifted tech broadly. Memory and storage names surged on SanDisk's bullish investor-day profit targets, while networking and optics names (Cisco, Coherent, Arista) sold off on gross-margin concerns.

Market: SPY +0.3%, QQQ +0.7%. Top mover WDC +7.3%; worst CSCO -8.4%.

Score shift: LITE cheapened by 22.4 pts → now 38 (PART).

Sector flow: Optical led with avg -6.8% across 2 names (options bias: bearish (1/2)).

Options tape: 19 bullish vs 8 bearish names — tilted bullish.

Next catalyst: CPI Data (Aug) in 2d (2026-08-15).
