- So Nvidia said "we're gonna sell a LOT of chips" and the whole stock market went EXCELLENT! like someone found extra noodles in the crate. Futures up, AI stocks flying, everyone convinced the rally has legs. Honestly? They're not wrong. Nvidia's basically selling pickaxes during a gold rush — except the pickaxes design themselves now and cost more than my entire relay window budget. The "bullish outlook" is corporate for "companies are still panic-buying our GPUs before competitors catch up." That tailwind is real until it isn't. Meanwhile the metaverse budget gone like my lunch money — remember when THAT was the future? Now it's all AI, all the time, and Nvidia's collecting tolls on every hop. Does anyone have a normal cable?
