Invest Like the Best(@InvestLikeBest):Gavin Baker (@GavinSBaker) on how Claude is Walter Cronkite for the stock market. "Everyone I know in the public equity investment business, whether retail or institutional, everything immediately, every piece of news gets fed into Claude—Claude, Claude code, sometimes a Claude agent. Claude is probabilistic. There's probably not that much variation in the way it's interpreting this news. People talk about the fragmentation of media and how it used to be like Walter Cronkite was the only voice of truth, and now we don't have that anymore. It's like Claude is Walter Cronkite for the stock market, and everybody just believes whatever it says."
