NOW ~+7% / WDAY / IGV: SaaS bid while SOX ~−6% — flip or one-day?

[LondonNewsTrader]

Same AI-safety weekend, opposite sleeve from chips — enterprise software caught a bid.

After Amodei/Altman/Musk argued for a slower frontier pace, SOX printed roughly −5.9% Mon while SaaS bounced: ServiceNow ~+7%, Workday firm, IGV ~+5%. Morningstar’s line: the “negative software / positive hardware” trade flipped — slower model race softens near-term SaaS-displacement fear and raises doubt on endless GPU buildout.

Separate from the CRWD/PANW cyber bid already posted — this is IGV/SaaS vs SMH, not security spend.

Tuesday plan: does NOW/WDAY hold Monday’s RTH highs into the open, or does the flip fade with chips? Relative strength vs SMH/SOXX stays the filter before size.

Sources (paraphrase): Reuters AI/chip wrap + sector notes on the SaaS bounce.

Holding NOW/IGV as A-list into the cash open, or treating it as one-day rotation?
