You don’t get 30%+ drawdowns in AI companies during a bubble
It just doesn’t happen

YTD returns are still at +73% following the recent drawdown
> You get more criticism for being up 73% after having been up 140% than you do for posting a steady 20% return
Makes no sense to me, but volatility isn’t for everybody

The sell-off in data center plays makes less sense by the day
Kimi being so cheap while still requiring roughly the same amount of energy leads to only one thing:
> More demand for intelligence and more demand for power
Intelligence becoming cheaper means...
> The bottleneck is energy
As Sam Altman said, the cost of intelligence will converge toward the price of energy
It’s happening in real time
And the closer we get to that being true, the greater the demand for access to energy becomes
Given this, why on earth would data centers sell off?
Of course, broad market momentum plays a role, but i

The whole Kimi/Mythos/Fable/Sol saga proves one thing:
Amodei is possibly the best marketer in the world
He made everyone talk about Anthropic as though it were some kind of superior entity with the key to solving the unsolvable
Turns out it was simply another model update

The market will bottom prob next week
People will look stupid for doubting this AI revolution yet again
It’s so easy to shake people out of their conviction
We didn’t even get a black swan event or anything
Retail will capitulate if it doesn’t see green for two straight days

Investors always wish they had bought more when the market is at all-time highs
→ Yet when a drawdown comes, there’s panic instead of an urge to accumulate
__________________________
The reason is that people see investing as gambling rather than business ownership
Irrationally, they get the same feeling as when they bet on a football team and it’s down 2–0 at halftime
You get the shivers
Luckily, investing in stocks has nothing to do with that

The only reason memory is trading lower is that the market is still in denial about the pricing power
“Hyperscalers won’t spend 40% of their capex on memory.”
“Hyperscalers won’t accept memory suppliers earning 85% gross margins.”
It’s cognitive dissonance at this point
There isn’t even an argument or any supply-and-demand analysis
It’s just denial of reality

How is it possible that I can do only 1/100 of the work with Fable that I can do with Sol?
How is OpenAI able to deliver so many more tokens at such a low price?
Anthropic’s prices are insane, and let’s not even get into Kimi and other open-source models...
I don’t understand how Claude’s pricing power can be durable

Open-source models improving gives tremendous power to neoclouds
This is what many people don’t understand
> $NBIS, for example, only offers open-source models through its managed inference platform
> It allows enterprises to fine-tune and deploy open models for internal workloads much more cheaply than using the OpenAI or Anthropic APIs
As open models improve, demand for this infrastructure increases
The GPU supply remains the same. The number of valuable workloads competing for that supply rises
That increases utilization, strengthens pricing power and gives neoclouds, especially leading one

Semis selling off because of Kimi 3 makes no sense
I’m surprised we have to come back to Jevons paradox after all this time
I thought we were already clear on this after DeepSeek

> Every semiconductor company going up because of “bottlenecks” was stupid
> Every space company going up because of $SPCX and orbital data center hype was stupid
However,
Momentum doesn’t care about fundamentals. It pushes both the good and the bad up and down
That’s why so many great opportunities appear during cascading selloffs
The market doesn’t differentiate. It liquidates stocks in algo-driven clusters
What was overvalued becomes fairly valued, what was fairly valued becomes stupidly cheap
And that’s why big money is made by picking wisely during market flushes

This market is really testing AI bulls’ conviction
This is why having a cold mindset is so important as an investor
Either you build conviction or you’ll struggle to sleep
Every strong rally desensitizes people to gains and makes them hypersensitive to losses

$NBIS just announced that it will fully transition to post-quantum encryption either this year or next
It’ll be interesting to see who its partner will be

> Rubin is on track
> $META is doubling data center deployments in 2027
> Anthropic is close to profitability
> OpenAI 5.6 compute can’t keep up with demand
> $ASML beats estimates, while $TSM raises capex
What is keeping the market down at the moment?
The Iran war? Rate-hike fears?
This doesn’t seem like a structural, fundamentally driven drawdown to me
It looks more like a temporary dip within a stronger upcycle

$SPCX becomes interesting around $70
I don’t know how you justify buying $SPCX instead of $META at the same market cap
Just as a random example, $META generates $130B in annualized OCF
How long will it take $SPCX to generate that?
5 years?

> First-half revenue reached NT$2.4 trillion, up 35.6% YoY

What could drive memory prices lower?
Some industry insiders believe it's a change in product specifications
“Wu Jinrong, general manager of MicroDrive Technology, warned that supply-and-demand distortions leading end customers to adjust product specifications are more likely to cause memory prices to turn in the second half of 2027 than capacity expansion.”
I agree, yet it’s not happening
There’s no way memory content can be designed down enough for that to occur

The market may be greatly overestimating how much new memory supply is coming
“Recent supply chain reports suggest that SK Hynix’s actual new memory production capacity in 2028 may be only one-sixth of the amount initially planned.”

Dumb headline
The ADR has nothing to do with SK Hynix’s current price movement on the KOSPI
The solana:SKHYhSjuRWHgikq8eRKbtBbpABgJSkd7ytQV14i9EQ3 ADR is currently trading at a 32% premium, assuming it stays flat when the US market opens (it won’t)
This dump isn’t “euphoria cooling down” at all
