# Weekly Recap | INT.US +13.67%, semiconductor news amplifies swings

## The Week

INT.US closed the week at $18.79, up 13.67%, while the S&P 500 fell 0.8%, leaving the ETF roughly 14.47 percentage points ahead. The four-session week had a clear shape. Tuesday opened higher and ran to $20.015; Wednesday carried the move further to an intraweek high of $20.24. Thursday pulled back to $17.73, and Friday staged a small recovery to $18.79. The weekly range was 13.58%. Average daily volume of 39,836 shares ran about 69.85% above the 45-day median, suggesting unusually active two-way trade.

## Sector News

Semiconductor headlines returned to the fore this week. On 8 September, Intel said it had passed a one-million-wafer milestone using ASML’s next-generation chip technology. On 10 September, Piper Sandler named five chip stocks it favours for an anticipated $2.2 trillion AI compute boom. Later that same day, reports noted Intel shares opened 4.64% lower. INT.US tracks twice the daily move in Intel shares, so stock-level news tends to show up in amplified form across the ETF’s session.

## The Week Ahead

The macro calendar opens the new week with the New York Fed manufacturing index on 15 September, followed by a dense batch on 16 September: retail sales, retail sales ex-autos, import prices, the NAHB housing index and weekly EIA crude-oil inventories. For a 2x daily levered product, the marginal shift in risk appetite around these prints is one thing to watch after a high-volume week.

## In Short

The ETF’s advance this week rode on Intel-related news and a firmer semiconductor mood, but the price now sits in the upper part of its 45-session range. The latest close of $18.79 is above both the 20-day average of $16.279 and the 60-day average of $17.447. The most recent session’s flow picture is mixed: small-lot money edged in on a net basis while medium-lot money showed net selling. The open question is whether sector news holds up, how macro data shift risk appetite, and whether the price can consolidate near these highs.
