Anthropic warning of catastrophic and existential risks to humanity in the S-1 is the most on brand thing imaginable.
The company warning about the potential collapse of society is going to make sure it cashes in on it along the way!

Whoever can bring the most power and compute online while simultaneously generating earnings is going to win.
It’s not just about who can spend the most, but who can also scale the fastest without destroying their economics in the process.
This is the race of our time.

Elon trying to nuke the entire neocloud complex so $SPCX can scoop up all the contracts and buy out the competition for pennies on the dollar is some killer stuff.
The mentality you need to succeed in an emerging industry like this, biggest reason why SpaceX is going to be the biggest and best provider of compute.

I’ve seen this chart posted more times over the last week than I have in all previous years combined.
Supposedly we’re somewhere between complacency and anxiety across the AI trade.
Interesting how almost everyone seems to agree on exactly where we are in the cycle.
It’s that easy?

The best time to own a growth stock is when it’s expensive and nobody believes in the thesis.
The arguments I’m seeing for why stocks that have already gone on monster runs are suddenly “cheap” explain why so many people are in pain.
When these stocks were breaking out and going on massive runs, the masses were calling them expensive and unsustainable.
Now after 10-20x moves, suddenly everyone is talking about how cheap they are.
The best growth stocks to own are almost always expensive.
The best opportunities come when everyone is questioning the thesis and arguing why the growth isn’t sustainable.
Not after the stock has gone up 1,000%, and the masses are agreeing it’s an easy buy.

Nobody knows anything but one thing everyone should know is that the market will eventually turn when it’s least expected and sentiment is arguably at its worst.
It’s not going to wait for all of the headlines and news to be sunshine and rainbows.

Some of these AI stocks might just go to 0 if the S&P 500 has a routine 10% correction huh, what a mess.
Trying to aggressively trade this market:
Stepping into a minefield of Iran headlines, the Kospi nuking every night, commentary from CEOs about why AI is too dangerous, microanalysis about every word said by anyone in the AI space, skittish AI “investors” etc.
Paytience.

Imagine if there was a company positioned to win big in AI who had 3.6 billion daily active users, $250B in revenue growing over 25%, and a 42 year old Mount Rushmore founder CEO.
Oh that’s $META.
Ken Griffin saw that $SPCX quarter and had to call AI a bubble.
Almost like he’s trying to run back the Situational Awareness playbook of blowing up another fund and buying it on the cheap.
The timing of Citadel’s warnings and comments is certainly something…

$SPCX is in a league of its own compared to OpenAI and Anthropic.
The level of differentiation, competitive advantages, and vertical integration puts it on another planet (pun intended).
It’s not particularly close either.

24/7 trading, expanded options trading hours, 0DTE options, leveraged ETFs, prediction markets, and easy access to huge leverage.
These are all things designed to help you lose more money, not make more.

If this news about a deal is real (still skeptical) the implications are massive.
Lower oil prices, lower inflation expectations, lower yields, lower borrowing costs, etc.
The stress in credit markets which has been weighing on the AI trade would start to ease as borrowing costs go down and financial conditions loosen.
Deal or bust for the market.

The market wants to exhaust you to the point where you stop paying attention or lose interest entirely.
Then when your mental and financial capital are completely drained and you’ve finally had enough, it’ll bottom.
This is the game.

Black Monday or not this market stinks, at this point maybe that would’ve been the more entertaining outcome.
Imagine trading some of these AI stocks down 30% in one day, this app would be cinema.
Whatever happens this week just know we have midterms, big tech earnings, FOMC, and more in the weeks ahead.
Surely no volatility to come. Fun stuff on the horizon.
Anytime there’s a bump in the road for this market, the comparisons to the dot com bubble or global financial crisis get louder.
Not every correction is the beginning of a historic market collapse.
There’s concerns worth discussing but constantly comparing every pullback and period of weakness to two of the worst bear markets in history has a low probability of being correct.
The market is allowed to pullback and correct without the entire financial system falling apart.

I discussed the Black Monday comparisons, CoreWeave, the AI trade, one group that sticks out and is still acting well that could lead, the overall market, my portfolio, and more here:

The vibes around AI and the AI trade are bad right now.
Whether it’s CoreWeave, Oracle, Anthropic’s IPO valuation being lowered, etc. the overall AI trade broadly there’s no shortage of things to worry about.
Said it a few times but markets trade on vibes, until a few of these dark clouds clear up we’re likely to be in a tough environment.
The good thing is either something likely blows up soon or nothing happens at all, feels like a climactic point is near.
