Last wk, S&P/Nas/Mag7 +0.4%/+0.1%/-0.8%. Cooler inflation (CPI, PPI) & economic data (consumer sentiment, retail sales) but +5% oil steepened the yield curve but lowered odds of a rate hike. Looking forward, I continue to believe the impact of Agentic AI with the advent of OpenClaw on January 30th has at least a year to run: 1) Token production has gone up roughly ~7.5x from the end of January more than offsetting the nearly 50% token cost reduction seen since open-weight model usage started to take off in May. 2) Combined annualized run-rate revenues for OpenAI and Anthropic which ended last year at $29B seems to be around $100B currently with Anthropic getting profitable in Q2. 3) Capex from the Big6 hyperscalers accelerated from 84% y/y/ in CQ1 to 92% in CQ2 with forecasts for nearly 100% in Q3. But this is being supported by cloud revenue growth at the 3 Big Public cloud vendors of $AMZN $MSFT $GOOGL accelerating from 23% y/y in Q1:25 to 35% in Q1:26 to 43% in Q2:26. Arguable more important is public cloud operating margins expanded from 34% to 37% and 39% during those time periods. 4) The $500B financing deal backstopped by up to $125B from $NVDA adds even more lower cost money to fund AI capex spend for the non-hyperscaler players. Nvidia gained 0.5% last week. 5) The liquidation of Situational Awareness and retail accounts during July cleared out some of the frothiness in the AI related names In terms of negatives: 1) The cost of money (yields on government bonds) remain near the highest levels for the 30 yr tenor at 5.3% since 2007. 2) Given large scale offensive US military actions are seemingly off the tablein favor of financial sanctions, probably driven by current election polls, I now believe Iran is likely to hold the Strait of Hormuz hostage until past the US mid-terms. This would be akin to them releasing the US hostages in 1981 (they were held for 444 days) just hours after President Reagan was sworn in replacing Carter. There were severe financial sanctions then also. 3) Since 1990, which happens to be the Gulf War, from the end of July through November 9th, which covers the reaction to all mid-term results, the performance is worse than non mid-term years. For mid-term years the median S&P500 gain from 7/31-11/9 is 0.9% with gains 56% of the time but the median peak loss from 7/31 is 6.2% (intra-period median peak loss of 9.9%.) For non mid-term years the median gain is 2.7% from 7/31-11/9 with gains 59% of the time and the median peak loss from 7/31 is 3.5% (intra-period median peak loss of 5.2%.) This year with the momentum seen by the Socialists which are not big business friendly, I see more risk than normal. 4) The easy money on the AI technical rebound from oversold levels on 7/29 due to the forced sale by Situation Awareness is probably over. There were negative stock reactions to headline beat and raise earnings on both revs & EPS for AI infrastructure winners $CSCO (-8% for the week but still up +45% YTD), $AMAT (-6%/+97%) and $COHR (-14%/+77%). While negatives can always be found, their biggest crime was arguably their recent bounce from 7/29-8/7 of 8%, 24% and 71% respectively and their market beating YTD gains. In summary, I remain bullish. Even from the end of July through November 9th during mid-term years since 1990, the S&P has an additional median gain of 4.2% to its peak before giving some of that back closer to the election. Given some of the negatives, especially the reaction to solid earnings data, I would add some hedges back on further market gains and get more selective. Consumer discretionary hedges should also make sense if oil is higher for longer. I believe value should continue to accrue to the infrastructure layer which includes 1) the public cloud vendors such as Amazon, Microsoft, Google and 2) the semiconductor companies. $INTC, my favorite semi company, still gained 0.8% last week despite: 1) a $20B equity offering which causes ~5% dilution and 2) being up 178% YTD. This clears the funding overhang. All the best in the week ahead.

During Tesla Cybercab launch week in Austin, I took a total of 12 paid Cybercab rides and kept every receipt. TOTAL: • 12 rides • 29.7 miles traveled • $108.34 total spent • $3.65 average cost per mile • 2 hours and 19 minutes riding around Austin in a Cybercab • Compared to Uber and Waymo, every Cybercab ride was still ~30-50% cheaper EACH OF MY CYBERCAB RIDES: 1/ Sept 3 — 7:23 PM 3.9 miles · 16 min · $8.70 ≈ $2.23/mile 2/ Sept 3 — 7:53 PM 0.5 miles · 6 min · $4.65 ≈ $9.30/mile 3/ Sept 4 — 6:52 AM 2.5 miles · 12 min · $6.99 ≈ $2.80/mile 4/ Sept. 4 — 7:13 AM 2.4 miles · 11 min · $6.84 ≈ $2.85/mile 5/ Sept. 4 — 7:39 AM 1.8 miles · 11 min · $6.16 ≈ $3.42/mile 6/ Sept. 4 — 8:03 AM 1.4 miles · 8 min · $5.69 ≈ $4.06/mile 7/ Sept. 4 — 8:20 AM 3.3 miles · 15 min · $7.90 ≈ $2.39/mile 8/ Sept. 4 — 10:58 AM 4.0 miles · 19 min · $8.78 ≈ $2.20/mile 9/ Sept. 4 — 11:58 AM 2.6 miles · 8 min · $7.08 ≈ $2.72/mile 10/ Sept. 4 — 2:17 PM 2.8 miles · 11 min · $13.71 ≈ $4.90/mile 11/ Sept. 5 — 12:57 PM 2.4 miles · 10 min · $16.18 ≈ $6.74/mile 12/ Sept. 5 — 1:36 PM 2.1 miles · 12 min · $15.66 ≈ $7.46/mile One of the biggest things I learned from actually using Cybercab is that you cannot judge the economics from just one ride. Pricing is dynamic. Some of my longer rides came in cheaper around $2.20–$2.40 per mile. Some of the shorter or higher-demand rides were much more expensive. Sometimes, the Cybercab was even more expensive than the Model Y (Unsupervised) bc the demand was so high. Some of the rides also became more expensive as Cybercabs became bookable on September 4 to the general public. However, it’s hard for me to look at these receipts and not wonder how Uber and Lyft can compete if Tesla can scale Cybercab the way it wants to. Uber and Lyft were built around connecting riders with human drivers. That means every ride has to support a much bigger cost stack... like 1/ A human has to be paid. 2/ That person needs a car. 3/ That car has to be financed or purchased. 4/ It needs insurance. 5/ Maintenance. 6/ Fuel or charging. 7/ And then Uber or Lyft still needs its cut. Cybercab attacks the biggest cost in that entire system which is the driver... there is no driver waiting to be paid at the end of the ride. And Tesla is supplying the software. Tesla can build the car. Build the battery. Build the autonomy system. Operate the network. Control the app. Control the charging. And the team designed the Cybercab from Day 1 around being a Robotaxi instead of taking a normal consumer car and trying to make the economics work. This is a big deal. Bc if Tesla can manufacture these at huge scale, keep them on the road for most of the day, and keep bringing the cost per mile down, then Uber and Lyft are going to be competing with the company that built the vehicle, the driver, and the network ALL AT ONCE. And this was during launch week... with just ~45 Cybercabs, before this vehicle is anywhere close to mature scale. If Tesla can push that cost down further as the fleet grows to thousands and millions, while Uber and Lyft still have to pay a human being to sit behind the wheel… I really don't see how these companies can survive... I think the days of Uber and Lyft are limited.
