Shares of Marvell Technology Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>) surged 4% during Thursday&#8217;s pre-market session in sympathy with Taiwan Semiconductor Mfg. Co. Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>), but have since leveled off and are trading slightly higher.
TSMC&#8217;s impressive <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41377745/tsmc-on-cusp-of-topping-1-trillion-valuation-as-stock-jumps-8-in-premarket-whats-going-on">quarterly earnings report</a> highlighted a 39% year-over-year revenue increase driven by strong demand for advanced chips used in smartphones and artificial intelligence (AI).
What Happened: As TSMC&#8217;s revenue for the quarter exceeded both its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSM/earnings">own guidance and Wall Street expectations</a>, the broader market sentiment has shifted positively for semiconductor companies with exposure to high-performance chip technologies
Marvell, known for its leadership in data infrastructure semiconductor solutions, stands to benefit from the same tailwinds that have propelled TSMC. With a focus on AI, cloud computing, 5G, and data center markets, Marvell&#8217;s position in the supply chain makes it a key player in the industry, particularly as demand for cutting-edge chips continues to accelerate.

TSMC&#8217;s report emphasized the rapid growth in demand for 3-nanometer and 5-nanometer node technologies, which are critical for high-performance applications like AI and data processing. This directly aligns with Marvell&#8217;s product offerings, especially in custom-designed chips for data centers and AI applications. 
What Else: Marvell has been expanding its portfolio to cater to the increasing needs of cloud service providers and telecommunications companies, which require more powerful, energy-efficient processors. The spillover effect from TSMC&#8217;s strong results, particularly in AI-driven markets, may lead investors to reassess Marvell&#8217;s growth potential in these areas.
Additionally, TSMC's strong guidance for the fourth quarter signals sustained demand in advanced chip manufacturing, providing further confidence that Marvell&#8217;s growth trajectory could benefit from a robust semiconductor cycle.

<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent101724&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="628" height="455" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/17094316/Screenshot-2024-10-17-at-6.42.16-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-600790" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/17094316/Screenshot-2024-10-17-at-6.42.16-PM.png 628w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/17094316/Screenshot-2024-10-17-at-6.42.16-PM-300x217.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px" /></a></figure>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent101724&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Chart created using Benzinga Pro</a>
The stock is currently trading at $281.68, which places it above key moving averages—its five-day, 20-day and 50-day exponential moving averages—indicating significant buying pressure. 
Specifically, American Express&#8217; stock price is above its eight-day SMA of $275.54 and 20-day SMA of $272.03 further confirms a bullish outlook, suggesting continued upward movement. The stock's 50-day SMA at $259.88 and its 200-day SMA at $232.73 are also well below the current price, reinforcing this positive trend.

Additionally, the MACD indicator is at 5.32, which signals further bullish potential for American Express stock. However, caution is warranted as the RSI stands at 67.74, and rising to approach the overbought territory. This could suggest a short-term pullback. 
However, the Bollinger Bands also indicate that American Express stock remains in a bullish phase with the stock trading in then upper bullish band. 
Investors should monitor these technical signals closely as the stock approaches a potential breakout.

Good Morning Traders! In today&#39;s Market Clubhouse Morning Memo, we will discuss SPY, QQQ, AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, GOOGL, META, and TSLA.
Our proprietary formula, exclusive to Market Clubhouse, dictates these price levels. This dynamic equation takes into account price, volume, and options flow. These levels are updated every day and shared with all Clubhouse Members, prior to the opening of the market.
We recommend closely monitoring these stocks, and be prepared to leverage potential breakouts or reversals. As always, stay alert and ready to adjust your tactics based on the market&#39;s pulse to optimize your trading gains. Now, let&#39;s dive into the stock analysis:
<h3>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust</h3>
SPY (ARCA: SPY) is currently auctioning near our key level of 585.37. For bullish momentum, we&rsquo;d like to see a move up to 587.31, with buyers maintaining strength above this level. If sustained buying pressure occurs, the next target would be 589.71, where we expect support to hold during regular hours. Should this level hold strong, we could see the price testing 593.59, with the highest bull target for SPY being 596.57 for the day.
On the downside, if 585.37 fails to hold as support, the bears will aim to test 583.18. A breach below this level would open up the door for further selling, likely testing 581.97. If sellers maintain pressure below 581.97, we expect a move down to 580.67, with a potential low bear target of 579.12 should selling intensify.
<h3>Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1</h3>
QQQ (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) is currently auctioning around the crucial level of 495.35. Bulls need to keep the price above 495.35 to sustain upward momentum. Should buyers step in, we expect the price to test 496.94, with further strength leading to a challenge at 498.37. A continued bullish trend could push the auction toward 499.44, with the high bull target for the day sitting at 501.07.
On the flip side, if 495.35 breaks down, bears will likely look to drive the price lower to 493.60. If there&rsquo;s a significant sell-off, expect further weakness to bring the auction to 491.82. If sellers maintain control below this level, we could see a test of 490.05, with a potential low bear target for the day at 487.69.
<h3>Apple Inc.</h3>
Apple&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is auctioning around the key level of 233.28. Bulls are aiming to defend this level as support, hoping to see a rally toward 234.20. If the buying continues, expect the price to climb to 234.97, with sustained strength pushing it further to 235.74, which serves as our high bull target for the day.
If 233.28 is lost as support, bears could take over and drive the price down to 231.76. Continued downside pressure would likely bring the price to 230.25, and if sellers maintain their grip, we could see a test at 229.03, with the low bear target for Apple at 227.82 if the sell-off accelerates.
<h3>Microsoft Corp. </h3>
Microsoft&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) is auctioning around 417.25. Bulls need to defend this level and push the price higher toward 419.17, which serves as the next area of support. Continued buying pressure could see the price rise to 420.26, and if the market is strong today, Microsoft could reach its high bull target of 421.62.
If 417.25 fails as support, bears may look to drive the price down to 416.32. A break below this level could push the auction further to 414.56. Continued selling could bring the price down to 413.14, with a low bear target of 411.72 for Microsoft in today&rsquo;s session.
<h3>NVIDIA Corporation</h3>
NVIDIA&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) is currently trading near 139.42, a key level to watch. Bulls need to push the price up to 140.28 and hold this level to maintain upward momentum. If buying continues, the price could move to 141.21, with a potential rally up to 142.35. The high bull target for NVIDIA today stands at 144.21.
If the price cannot hold 139.42 as support, bears are likely to test the 138.55 level. A break below this could lead to further weakness, testing 137.94. Continued selling pressure would likely bring the price to 136.98, with a low bear target at 135.64 if the downtrend intensifies.
<h3>Alphabet Inc Class A</h3>
Alphabet&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/googl#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) is trading around 165.41, a crucial support level. Bulls are looking to hold this level and push the price higher toward 167.04. If buying continues, we expect the auction to challenge 169.34, which serves as today&rsquo;s high bull target.
Should 165.41 fail to hold, the bears will look to test the downside at 163.79. If there&rsquo;s continued selling pressure, the next target would be 161.79. Heavy selling could bring the price down to 160.36, marking the low bear target for Alphabet.
<h3>Meta Platforms Inc</h3>
Meta&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/meta#NASDAQ">META</a>) is auctioning around 580.17. For the bulls, holding this level as support is key to pushing the price higher toward 585.73. Continued buying momentum could drive the price further to 591.29, with the high bull target for Meta being 598.17 if buyers dominate today&rsquo;s session.
If 580.17 fails as support, bears will likely push the auction down to 573.25. Continued selling pressure could see the price dip to 565.53. If sellers are persistent, the price could fall to our low bear target at 559.29.
<h3>Tesla Inc. </h3>
Tesla&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is trading near the important level of 220.65. Bulls will aim to push the price higher to 222.19, with further buying momentum likely driving the auction toward 223.98. A strong bull run could see the price testing 226.53, with a potential high bull target for the day at 228.45.
On the downside, if 220.65 fails to hold, bears could look to test 219.39. If selling continues, we expect the price to drop to 217.78, and a break below this level could bring Tesla down to 216.31, the low bear target for today.
Final Word: Today&rsquo;s trading session starts with the European Central Bank (ECB) rate decision at 8:15 AM ET, setting the tone for the day&rsquo;s market sentiment. In addition, the market will react to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company&#39;s positive earnings, which have somewhat offset the pessimistic guidance from ASML Holding.

These reports will provide crucial insights into consumer spending and the labor market.
Later, at 10:00 AM ET, we&rsquo;ll receive the NAHB Housing Market Index for October, offering a snapshot of the housing market&rsquo;s health. Adding to the mix, Federal Reserve member Austin Goolsbee is scheduled to speak at 11:00 AM ET, potentially shedding light on the Fed&rsquo;s perspective on the economy.

Mark Cuban doesn't let a little theft ruin his outlook on people. To him, it just comes with the territory.&nbsp;
In a <a href="https://youtu.be/5uyBfeyNens?si=JZsKoROdRFTDN6IJ">Club Shay Shay interview</a> posted on YouTube earlier this month, he was asked if betrayal makes him sour, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/06/39447720/from-business-sale-to-retirement-wealth-how-mark-cuban-turned-91-of-his-employees-into-millionai">given his generosity over the years.</a> Cuban brushed it off, saying, "No, because people steal. What am I gonna do? It's a good problem to have. I can afford it." But while he might be able to take such losses in stride today, it wasn't always that way.
Don't Miss:

<li>This billion-dollar fund has invested in the next big real estate boom,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/fundrise-flagship-fund"> here's how you can join for $10.</a></li>
</ul>
Back in his early days with MicroSolutions, things were tight. Cuban recounted how an employee, Renee Hardy, stole $82,000 out of the $84,000 they had in the bank. He explained that Hardy, who handled payables, simply whited out the payee names on checks and wrote in her own. "I'll never forget getting a call from the bank. They said, ‘This woman just came through the drive-thru and the checks were whited out,'" he shared. "She took $82,000 of the $84,000 we had. We were flat broke."
Trending: Studies show 50% of consumers think Financial Advisors cost much more than they do —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/money-pickle"> to debunk this, this company provides matching for free and a complimentary first call with the matched advisor.</a>
This wasn't a small setback. At that time, Cuban was nowhere near the billionaire he is today. He and his team had to contact vendors, pleading for their patience and promising they'd make things right. Despite the obvious frustration, Cuban took it in stride. He said, "We had to call the vendors and say, ‘Please work with us; we'll bust our ass, we'll make sure you get paid.' And they did."
Years later, the mystery surrounding Hardy persists. Cuban joked that people still reach out to him whenever they encounter someone with her name. He added, "No one's ever found her. She probably changed her name or whatever."
Trending: Can you guess how many retire with a $5,000,000 nest egg? &#8211;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/retire-5mil-nest-egg"> How does it compare to the average?</a>
Though Cuban has come a long way since his days of hustling with MicroSolutions, some things haven't changed. When asked if his circle of friends shifted as his wealth grew, he explained that he's still close with old friends. "My guys from grade school and high school, they're still my buddies," he said. He <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40752828/mark-cuban-shares-he-reached-first-1-million-by-learning-to-party-like-a-rock-star-but-still-liv">reminisced about his early days</a> in Dallas, sleeping "five or six guys in a three-bedroom apartment." Even as his net worth skyrocketed, those friendships held strong.
Cuban also shared how his father's work ethic influenced his drive. He explained how his dad never made more than $40,000 a year, yet refused to retire even after Cuban started making money. "He had to work. That's his thing," Cuban said.&nbsp;

Despite the ups and downs, Cuban's perspective on life remains remarkably grounded. His recent venture, Cost Plus Drugs, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/06/39225796/mark-cuban-proposes-making-an-essential-service-free-for-less-than-2-5-billion-a-year">aims to bring transparency to health care pricing</a>, a mission rooted in his desire to make a positive impact. Reflecting on his journey, he's taken his share of hits, but Cuban's resilience and focus on helping others continue to guide his path.
