Jeff Weniger, chief investment strategist of Corgi Invest, talks about his firm's buffer ETFs and ways they aim to limit downside risks amid volatile market swings. He discusses the Corgi 0-3 Month T-Bill ETF (CGOV) and the Corgi Magnificent Seven ETF (CMAG).

Jay Woods sees seasonal headwinds "putting a damper on the rally" in the coming weeks. One corner of the market struggling to find its footing: AI chips as Nvidia (NVDA) earnings loom. Jay tells investors to brace for volatility but remains confident in long-term AI trends. Software is gaining traction, as Jay highlights bullish technical trends in Salesforce (CRM) and CrowdStrike (CRWD) — both of which report earnings this week.

Alphabet (GOOGL) "owns the mine, the shovel factory," and just about everything it needs to lead the AI race, argues Tiffany McGhee. However, she says the Mag 7 giant's negative free cash flow raises a yellow flag. Stephanie Walter agrees that Alphabet's breadth is the strongest sticking point for forward momentum, though points to confusion on how it uses AI as the biggest concern.

James Demmert says Nvidia's (NVDA) earnings will be "very important" but expects Wall Street to "overcomplicate" the report. He calls the stock a "bargain" at current prices. On the greater AI chip trade, James turns to the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH) and urges caution in the sector, making the case there are losers in the group. He turns to the greater economic outlook and other sectors to watch as the 10-year Treasury yield remains near multi-year highs.

Max Weinbach previews expectations for Nvidia (NVDA) earnings and how it will navigate expanding bottlenecks. He says the Mag 7 giant "by far" has the biggest chipmaking capacity but faces headwinds in how it will allocate sales over energy and memory constraints. When it comes to Vera Rubin, Max tells investors to brace for some answers that comes with even more questions.

No other stock topped Moderna's (MRNA) meteoric rally this week thanks to a melanoma vaccine trial breakthrough. Coinbase (COIN) shares surged on the back of a Bitcoin comeback. Walmart (WMT) closed as one of the worst S&P 500 (SPX) performers after earnings. Marley Kayden closes out the week with the top stories that moved Wall Street.
