Replying to @negligible_cap

Seasonality
November Strong Start, Mid-Month Dip, Strong Finish. $SPY has 11 bullish days, 6 straight to open. Midterm years run harder early, dip mid-month, then rally into month end, led by $QQQ +3.5%. Watch $IWM on day 12: up just 12 of 42 years. jeffhirsch.tumblr.com/post/8…

I’ll go ahead and nominate myself for the generational fumble leaderboard. Too late to respond?

I feel like $aapl traumatized the memory makers so badly. Can we all agree to blame $aapl for the '28 and '29 HBM shortages?

$CRWV bond YTM continues to collapse today. I highly suggest positioning accordingly. Someone is likely buying their debt based on upcoming announcement of debt backing.
$NVDA likely has a big announcement on $CRWV Bond YTMs tank from 16% to 13-14% in 2 days. Be careful on positioning.

Honestly massive improvement. Hopefully this routing change can help create the conditions for high quality inference across the board
We just shipped our biggest improvement to our provider router since the founding of OpenRouter. Before, we prioritized mostly based on price. The new router now rewards the best quality inference for the actual cost of a request, so requests stay cheap but are also fast and reliable. Providers that deliver more value automatically win more traffic, so every provider has a reason to keep improving. And every time a provider gets better, so does your inference on OpenRouter.

Citi TMT $MU: "Overall, we believe the market is underestimating how constrained DRAM/HBM supply is likely to remain as AI-driven demand from hyperscalers continues to accelerate, while memory makers face diminishing benefits from process shrinks and must rely on long-cycle greenfield capacity additions. As a result, HBM and advanced memory supply could remain tight through 2027 and 2028." "Supply is the underappreciated piece, in our view: Node transitions yield less density (1-delta ~25% vs 1-gamma and prior nodes 30-40%). HBM's trade ratio eats wafer capacity, and DRAM bit growth is only in the low 20s. Real supply relief needs greenfield fabs, which takes a long time and cleanroom space is the constraint. Micron's construction spend as a % of capex is approaching 50%."

Mizuho on $MRVL / $LITE: "ahead of significant industry optical transition a ~38% premium could potentially imply upside to as much as $1,260+ given LITE's closing price of $913.95."

I just want to point out that $GOOG near-top-blasted $45 billion in stock and converts sales on June 4-6 at ~$350 per share, plus another $12.4B in 3Q via its ATM program at $344 per share. The stock is now at $280. Snaps for $GOOG's CFO!

$CRWV nearly back to flat - I watch this name very closely as a canary in the coal mine

SOXX and memory coming off lows. Feels like a little breather from the run over the last week. CAPEX story seems intact.

My take: Warsh is not a hawk or a dove. He's not a traditional central banker in his mental models, so that signal extraction is pointless. The signal ain't there.
My take: Warsh thinks sounding hawkish or dovish amounts to guidance and so to avoid it will often not really answer questions at all. This naturally raises the error rate of any human or algo determined to find a hawk/dove signal.
