$AMD has joined the $1 trillion club! A nearly 10% stock surge pushed its market cap to $1.005 trillion, making it the seventh chipmaker to reach this milestone after $NVDA Nvidia, $TSM TSMC, $AVGO Broadcom, $MU Micron, Samsung, and SK Hynix. Since Lisa Su became CEO in 2014, AMD has executed a historic turnaround—rising from near-bankruptcy at a $2 share price and $2 billion valuation to $1 trillion today, marking a 500-fold growth in 12 years.
Leopold Jenkins is at it again this morning.
Golf clap: SNDK 1700 0DTE jumped from $3 to $90. He's back. Someone just dropped $100M in premium on 2-week AI calls expiring Oct 2:

Rumor: Unconfirmed media reports claim Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei (任正非) and his family have fled China ahead of new entry and exit restrictions starting Sept. 15. Some reports allege he escaped by sea via the Dapeng Peninsula, while others cite a heavy police presence at Huawei’s headquarters. #Huawei has not issued an official statement, but multiple media outlets have now picked up the story.
On the left is Apple iPhone Duo, on the right is Xiaomi 18 Fold. Both are foldables, and judging purely by appearance, the difference is indeed minimal now. Previously, Xiaomi's cars also sparked heated discussions due to their resemblance to Porsche. In the end, the choice still comes down to ecosystem and actual performance, returning to the age-old debate of Android vs. iOS.

马斯克警告时间不多了:“最多还有3年,你还能靠卖自己的劳动赚钱”。老马的意思,之后AI将完成大部分任务,付钱给某人换取他们的时间,将变得毫无意义过去200年的交易模式,用你的时间换取薪水,即将终结。说实话,我在做AI前沿工作,感觉AI往后愈来愈难。AI越强,普通任务越容易,前沿工作却越难。这不是AI发展放缓,而是价值边界正在迁移。话说回来,AI要达到一个成熟人类在真实世界中的综合感知、常识推理、因果判断与自主行动能力的50%,很可能还需要20年,甚至更久。
AI泡沫何时破裂?科技巨头的AI支出狂潮,比表面看起来要大得多。九家主要科技公司拥有大约3万亿美元的表外承诺,远高于报告的资本支出6000亿美元。AI军备竞赛正在制造巨大的投资者可能低估的义务。目前AI应用的变现速度,如软件订阅、云服务增量,若无法匹配暴增的硬件与算力成本,高企的固定支出,将直接侵蚀企业的自由现金流和利润率。
目前硬件与算力建设处于“指数级爆发期”,而应用层的杀手级场景与高付费意愿仍然停留在“线性增长期”。若2026–2027年间,智能体(Agent)或垂直行业AI,无法迎来爆发式的商业化转化,巨额表外承诺转化成的当期折旧开支,将直接对科技巨头的自由现金流(FCF)造成剧烈挤压,这正是市场对AI泡沫何时以“估值修正”形式破裂的最大担忧所在。

$SNDK 图表完美绘制?AI/储存正在反弹,AI/半导体泡沫何时破裂?自7月底测试0.618斐波那契水平以来上涨65%。当时市场和KOL一片恐慌,好像只有我们,不但加仓SNDK,还投机性买了些SNXX。当SNDK突破2000美元时,会先逐步减持SNXX。如没90%把握,我们不会轻易押注杠杆ETF。AI泡沫今年不会破裂。明年呢?

为何中国人勤劳,但并不富有?因为中国企业家卷价格,不卷品牌,所以生产了一堆附加值低的工业垃圾,从服装鞋帽,到太阳能板,再到电动汽车,没有一样利润超过20%。而从苹果到爱马仕铂金包,都是暴利品牌。一只顶级铂金包(Birkin)皮包,可以换伦敦或曼哈顿的一套一居公寓。
