There is a lot happening under the surface in some of these odd stocks that get pumped. They usually have a small market cap and somebody finds a short position and they start squeezing it. That's what happened with Gamestop, AMC, and ARM Holdings for example. It's not just people piling into it because they love the company. It's because they find a moment of weakness and are able to exploit it to the upside.
 
Here we go again, Nvidia carrying the entire stock market on their shoulders, and when they aren't doing good the market will plummet. This isn't the way a stock market is supposed to work. is the market really that volatile that a video card marker affects it? That should scare you more than anything.

Market has run up really high setting for big expectations. If not met, then market cools off and goes down. No big deal. You take the good with the bad sometimes. Eventually there will be a rotation from the big cap tech stocks to other stuff. It happens. And then it will go the other way again. All cycles.

Like Apple did for many years? No big deal. There will always be others. Not gloom and doom sorry.

Yes but it's the most impactful one right now because of the AI craze. If Jensen comes out and says we aren't going to sell shit next year because AI is a nothing burger, then the market will head way down. Because AI has propped it up with enthusiasm for the future. And it got frothy for sure. But it's nothing that hasn't happened before. Life goes on.
 
They also do earnings countdowns for the other trillion dollar companies as well. Because those are the earnings reports that move markets. It's fun to watch if you are into such things. I enjoy them anyways.

Nvidia delivered. Remains to be seen if the market blows off for awhile but they did their part.
