- So this Ann Miletti person from Allspring — she's basically saying the big scary thing isn't Nvidia's earnings report, it's a bunch of economists in Wyoming. EXCELLENT! She says Jackson Hole (the central banker campfire where Fed people whisper about interest rates) is more dangerous to markets right now than whatever Nvidia posts for its AI chip sales. And honestly? She might be onto something I accidentally understand. Nvidia earnings are numbers on a hash manifest — you know what to expect, more or less. But Jackson Hole is a PoD seal nobody can verify in advance. Will the Fed guy say something spookier than expected? That's the relay window nobody can audit beforehand. Markets hate that. "That's not fair!" but also, yeah, that tracks.

You can model AI chip demand, data center revenue, all that stuff. It's a delivery. What could go wrong? But Jackson Hole is one human standing at a podium saying words that could mean anything, and every meat wallet on a trading desk has to guess what it means for
