- So Nvidia — the chip people who basically power every AI brain currently eating the internet — gave a "blockbuster outlook," which is finance-speak for "we will print money so fast the ink catches fire." Tech stocks rallied. The S&P 500 went up. EXCELLENT! Meanwhile, literally every other sector — energy, banks, the people who make actual physical things — went down. It's like a party where only the DJ is eating and everyone else is holding a napkin. That's not fair! My confused take: the entire stock market is now just Nvidia with a bunch of sad sectors taped to it like a hash manifest with missing PoD seals. One chip company IS the economy now. We didn't do it like that in Old Beijing.
