(MSFT), (JPM) Davos is always a theater of the absurd – private jets parking wing-to-wing so billionaires can lecture the world on carbon footprints. I’ve come here for years, not for the panels, but for the moments in between, when the cameras are off and the real anxiety sets in. This year, the disconnect between […]

(MU), (NVDA) There’s a special place in semiconductor hell reserved for the phrase “this time it’s different.” I’ve heard it too many times. They said it in 2010 before NAND fell off a cliff.

(GOOG), (META), (AAPL), (MSFT) In the 1970s, I was crawling through back alleys in Bangkok chasing stories about guerrilla fighters. Forty years later, I’m crawling through earnings transcripts chasing stories about AI. Some things change. But the skill set, spotting what others miss, never goes out of style. That’s how I ended up looking deeper […]
(MRVL), (ALAB), (MSFT) Every AI cycle has a moment when the story everyone is telling stops matching what’s actually happening. We’re there now.

(NVDA), (XLK), (META), (GE), (RTX), (GEV), (ETN), (LLY), (BRK.B), (CEG), (VST) I once made a six-figure bet on NVIDIA (NVDA) after a lunch in San Francisco where an engineer sketched a data flow diagram on a cocktail napkin. It looked less like elegant math and more like spaghetti that had lost a brief but meaningful […]

(MRVL), (NVDA), (AMD), (AMZN), (MSFT), (GOOG), (ALAB), (CRDO) I once missed a flight out of Tokyo because the airline had all the planes but forgot to schedule enough ground crew. That’s kind of where we are with AI right now. The chips are ready, the algorithms are thirsty, but the runway – the interconnect, the […]
