One of the great myths of the Dot.com Bubble was that Internet traffic was doubling every three months. It was still growing 100% every year, but not 1,000%. This miscalculation had huge implications for telecom capex going forward. - James Chanostweet

Zuck: My earnings call is before yours Jensen! This DeepShit Chinese bullshit is overshadowing a good qtr.
Jensen: Ok, hear me out...Llama is open source...so is DeepShit...and it's doing some incredible stuff with much lower cost, so tell them you are going to copy their shit and it is extremely bullish for Meta, as FCF gonna ramp like a motherfucker.
Zuck: That is fucking awesome, ok, I'm going to pound FCF and cost discipline down their damn throats. But one thing...that means I am buying less of your GPUs no?
Jensen: Yes, I am fucked! But I have a few more weeks to figure out how to sell our inferencing capabilities and how Agents and Physical AI like robots are basically here (even though they aren't).

Some of the hilarity with this headline:
- Government cannot be happy with this
- Unlike TikTok, nothing to ban here, open source and all over the world now
- Furthermore, banning isn't the answer anyways. Copying is.

My dad is confused, "why is it bad for the market that DeepSeek is making it cheaper to run AI?"
I asked him if he understood why certain stocks go down when "Amazon your margin is my opportunity" enters a market. He said of course I do.
The tantrum tonight is about margins for semi infra. Warranted? Maybe. If compute explodes (as you'd expect), maybe not? Maybe NVDA GM has peaked?
Regardless, markets always shoot first and rationality returns later. The fact that megacap earnings calls start this week, hopefully provides some clarity.

Interesting if this has spooked the markets this morning 📉
High expectations, billions of capex, high pace of innovation. Tempting to dive in but hard to have an edge as an investor...🎲
