Same story as QQQ, the recent SOXX short trade had the stop clipped in the post-FOMC meeting “noise” that lead to the failed breakout in the broad market, undoubtedly clearing out a lot of short interest as the market popped high enough above the key SPX 2800 resistance level to run just about any well-placed stop-loss orders for short trades as well as suck in some new longs on what appears to be a breakout.
