Nvidia (NVDA) announces CEO transition, Huang out as CEO and board member. Colette Kress is interim CEO. Initiating search for a permanent CEO, external and internal candidates to be considered.
To add fuel to the volatility:
US President Trump posts " We don’t need a deal with Iran. Those days have long since passed. We’ve got their money, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and we’ve got their Strait! Thank you for your attention to this matter."
Indexes puking again this morning.
You guys are missing a bit here. On the surface, sure it seems having an affair shouldn't impact a single company so much, however the nVidia situation is quite unique. Jensen Huang built nVidia from the ground-up as a co-founder in the 90s. From what has been reported, he does A LOT of...
CAT performance was all based on datacenters. The same trade that has been rocked across the board recently.
Also, this was Burry's perfect short timing trade. (Mike Burry of "The Big Short" fame)
Someone had been asking me for my investments. I threw the last 6 months into Claude and it spit this out:
Portfolio gain of 5.7% vs VOO (S&P500 -0.7%)
Top profitable trades in net returns order (these are closed realized gains)
I'm pretty sure Google already has this feature baked in with their Google Meets and Gemini AI. fwiw

"Anthropic unveils office tools ahead of IPO, rivalling Microsoft (MSFT), according to reports"
MSFT down on this headline.
If Microsoft is not safe vs AI, no SaaS is safe.
Last week Thursday was a mega dip across the board.
Might not be over.
NVDA is selling off more today and is nearly back to the March lows.
MSFT also overtook NVDA market cap today.
RSP has been outperforming. But this is a big break here after months of distribution in the indexes. This could well get uglier before it gets better.
Be patient and buy in tranches.
This also brings a morbid risk as well. All those Elon eggs in one basket.
If Musk ODs on ketamine / some psycho kills him or whatever, I think you've got a concentration risk of a massive dump in everything Elon.

Ai / Tech massacre on this.
The problem with SpaceX valuation and thesis is the fact they hitched their xAI to the name. I want to own SpaceX the rocket & telecom company, not the AI business at all.
It muddies the waters considerably, especially when trying to work out Revenues / Margins / CapEx. Like most AI, future...
I am not against this in principle. This was a hugely popular EQ2 zone that was quite different than the standard crawl experience.
But from what I have read in this thread, the loot is borderline useless, so you can't expect any longevity to the zone. It is a massive waste of dev resources...
As I mentioned in an earlier post, historic norms surely favor the top 10 weights but at a rate nearer 20%. We are currently at 40% weight in the top 10 which is at historical records on-par with the dot com era. My message is simply that the S&P "500" is the least diversified it has ever been...
Similar thing with me in the UK for a while. I joke that I "accidentally retired" when I resigned from full time to move to the UK to marry my British wife back in 2018. The truth is, I did a couple years of IT consulting work where I took a few jobs amounting to maybe 3 of 12 months of the year...
Speaking of AI narrative: Anthropic released their S-1 filing today.
1H 2026 = $80B loss.
The term "catastrophic and existential risks to humanity" was used 3 times and something astounding like 30% of the entire filing was used to highlight risk.
The crux of the problem exactly is the massively overweight AI tech names in the index. The top 10 S&P stocks today are something like 40% of the entire S&P weight vs ~20% by historical norms. My concerns are exactly that, the extreme concentration risk. Most average traders just drop their...
I would be fairly concerned hitting the eject button and retiring right as the whole AI trade is beginning to wobble. Sure, it may pass and we just grind away to new ATHs, but with AI tech propping up the markets, any sizeable unwind can really dent the overall indices. We have had a few outsize...
Umbral was what I did on THJ. Equipped a pet with one of those absurd 200 range AE weapons and let it simply autopull. Just AA while you sleep. NW corner seemed to have the densest pathing mobs.
@fris Are you simply investing or active trading?
The best trading tracker I have found is https://tradersync.com/
You can track multiple accounts / brokerages with this.
Likely overkill for the vast majority of people, but it has great insights and exceptional tracking.
I know nothing of home construction, but my uncle built his own house himself and told me he literally doubled up all of the high end insulation. It is staggering how well that place can hold the temps. Even on some summer days, he just opens the windows overnight in the breeze to cool the place...
