Stevie Graham (new account) (@stevegraham) reportedSeismic CFAA ruling in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in Amazon v. Perplexity. Court struck down a preliminary injunction, holding that when an agent acts on a user’s behalf, the user (not the company that makes the agent) “accesses” a server for CFAA purposes. If it stands, that reasoning sharply limits the CFAA as a tool to block user-directed services. It's about time this happened. IMO, Ninth Circuit precedent (Power Ventures) has been in conflict with SCOTUS (Van Buren), creating unnecessary uncertainty for customers and litigation risk for third-party companies providing access to services without cooperation or consent of their operators

Proflex Finance (@ProflexFinance) reportedWhat would break this read. Demand, not supply. Cover ratios on hyperscaler deals have fallen from nearly 5x in February to below 2x in July. Amazon's March sale was 3.4x covered. Its July sale, 1.6x. If books rebuild above 3x, the crowding-out case weakens fast, because it means the duration bid is deeper than this year's price action suggests. Amazon has already said it will not issue more debt in 2026. If the other four follow and Goldman's $400bn for 2027 gets marked down, this reverts to a credit story and stops being a rates story. #Bonds #Rates

Naveen (@thewidellens_) reportedA resource does not stay free because it has no value. It stays free because nobody with leverage has yet decided it is worth pricing. Three very different organizations just proved this in three very different ways this year. Value and price are not the same thing. Community discussions, curated knowledge, technical documentation, all of it can carry enormous value while carrying a price of zero, simply because nobody built a mechanism to extract that value at scale before now. A new extraction mechanism changes the equation regardless of what the owner does. AI systems consume content at a scale nothing before them could, so content too diffuse to ever bother pricing suddenly aggregates into something genuinely valuable in bulk. The content did not change. The economics around it did. Rising demand creates leverage, but only for whoever acts on it first. Reddit blocked AI crawlers from its entire domain the same week it joined the S&P 500, converting an assumption into a negotiated asset overnight. Wikipedia, a nonprofit funded by donations, signed paid Enterprise licensing deals with Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Perplexity in January, after bot traffic drove its bandwidth costs up 50 percent, bots responsible for 65 percent of its most expensive server requests. Even a mission driven organization recognized the same leverage. News publishers show the scale in dollars, OpenAIs licensing deal with News Corp alone is reported at 250 million dollars over five years. Stack Overflow shows what happens when you wait. Its question volume collapsed from 200,000 a month in 2014 to 50,000 by late 2025, as developers simply asked AI models instead. It had to rebuild its entire business model after the fact, far more painful than a single configuration file, because it reacted only once the value had already left. One honest caveat, no single publisher holds dominant leverage, even the largest deals number in single digits, AI companies are deliberately spreading their sourcing. The leverage is real, it is not unlimited. If your organization sits on content it has never priced, that silence is a decision, made by default, and the value does not stay available to claim indefinitely.

Chaotic Good (@_ChaoticGood42) reportedDay 3 of more ways I am cheap: 75% of what’s on Amazon, is just marked up from Temu and listed on Marketplace. Before I buy something on Amazon, I check Temu first. Temu also a lot of times doesn’t care about returns if **** is broken. They do so much business that they just give you a refund.

Prateek Madaan (@prateek_madaan1) reportedLAB GROWN DIAMONDS could bring a BIG DISRUPTION to the natural diamonds industry. The obvious attraction is price point at which they come. Lab-grown diamonds can cost 70–90% less than mined diamonds, while offering essentially the same physical and chemical properties. That creates a dangerous proposition for natural diamonds : consumers are being asked to pay a massive premium for scarcity when technology can now manufacture the same material at scale. Amazon says its lab-grown diamond category has grown 9x since the start of the year, while startups are attracting serious VC money and even legacy players like Titan are entering the segment. The bigger problem is what happens to the economics of diamonds if this adoption continues. Diamonds historically benefited from scarcity, emotional signalling and the perception that they retain value. But if consumers increasingly view a diamond as a product rather than a scarce natural asset, the premium attached to mined stones can compress. Falling prices can then hurt the entire ecosystem - miners, natural-diamond inventories, retailers and eventually resale values. The real threat is that they can make a large portion of existing natural-diamond demand economically irrational.

Tim Farrar (@TMFAssociates) reported@BellikOzan Yes. It's very impressive that Starlink costs have remained roughly equal between satellites and launch. But Amazon may end up paying more to launch each satellite than they cost to make, which is a bigger long term problem

Elite Intuition (@Elite_Intuition) reported$NVDA On the Aug 26 call she said cloud backlog is already >$2T and top-5 hyperscaler CapEx is expected to hit nearly $800B in 2026 and $1.3T in 2027. That’s the official confirmation that the spend curve is still steepening, not flattening. AWS adding another 2 million GPUs plus Vera CPUs (some integrated with Rubin) through FY29 is the concrete proof point that the biggest buyers are still accelerating, not pausing. The implication is straightforward: the AI infrastructure cycle just got a year pulled forward. That extends the runway for NVDA, memory (they raised supply/capacity commitments from $119B to $279B, mostly memory), power/cooling, and the entire data-center buildout chain. The constraint is no longer demand or customer willingness to spend — it’s silicon, HBM, power, and sites. That’s why they keep repeating “supply-constrained outlook.” The $1.3T number landing in 2027 instead of 2028 is the tell. Consensus was late. However... For the hyperscalers writing the checks — the cash-flow version is getting ugly. Combined CapEx is already running ahead of operating cash. Several of them are at or through zero FCF this year. Amazon has been the clearest example; Alphabet printed its first negative FCF in decades; Meta is tight; Oracle already crossed. They’re covering the gap with debt, leases, and in Alphabet’s case equity. CapEx as a share of cloud revenue is running near 100% at the high end. That’s not “bad” if the assets earn 25%+ returns. It is bad if utilization or pricing slips and you’re still depreciating $1T of iron. Kress addressed it on the call because the market has been calling it circular: NVDA investments, residual-value guarantees, $500B PE platforms, data-center leases they plan to reassign. She said they know the label and still think the risk is limited because demand is real. That’s the BIG debate. Vendor financing works until the end customer’s cash doesn’t. CoreWeave-style structures and take-or-pay backstops are the first place that shows up if GPU rental rates keep falling. So the $1.3T number is bullish for the suppliers and a stress test for the buyers. The cycle just got longer and more leveraged. That’s good if ROI holds. It’s a problem if 2027 CapEx is funded with hope and residual-value paper instead of cash from AI products. The stock is treating it as good tonight. The credit market and FCF statements are the place to watch if you think it’s bad.

UnveiledChina (@Unveiled_ChinaX) reportedBeijing-backed Moonshot AI is in talks to secure up to a 30 percent revenue split from U.S. cloud giants Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet's Google to host its 2.8 trillion-parameter model, Kimi K3. Founded by Carnegie Mellon-trained researcher Yang Zhilin and backed by Chinese tech conglomerate Alibaba, Moonshot built a model capable of matching top Western artificial intelligence systems. Because running a model of this massive size requires immense compute power, the Beijing startup needs American cloud infrastructure to expand globally. The timing of these negotiations is raising serious security concerns. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently warned that Washington might place Moonshot on a federal trade blacklist. American officials have accused the firm of improperly obtaining restricted Nvidia microchips and extracting outputs from U.S. AI lab Anthropic to build its system. Moonshot denies the claims, but the pattern is concerning. While federal regulators warn of intellectual property theft and security risks, Silicon Valley's largest cloud providers seem ready to partner with CCP-aligned competitors to capture market share. Should major American tech companies be opening their server infrastructure to Beijing-backed AI developers while national security officials sound the alarm?

Link Technologies (@LinkTechnlogies) reportedAmazon is shutting down Mechanical Turk after more than 20 years. The crowdsourced work platform will close on September 30. MTurk once had more than 500,000 workers completing tasks computers struggled with. Amazon says the service had been declining as newer AI data-labeling platforms took over.

Christian Soschner (@Soschner) reportedNvidia has never guided a full year ahead. On Wednesday it did. CFO Colette Kress told analysts to expect around 70% revenue growth in fiscal 2028. Wall Street had modelled 44%. On consensus math that puts next year's sales near $673 billion, ahead of Apple and Alphabet, behind only Amazon among American tech companies. The forecast is not the interesting part. Kress called it a supply-constrained outlook. Customer forecasts, she said, point to growth doubling. Jensen Huang said it flat on the call: demand is much greater than 70%, and supply allows 70%. For a year the market has doubted that the buyers are real. At the chip layer, that argument is over. The constraint moved to physical inputs. Server DRAM prices rose 64% in the second half of last year, and TrendForce expects a 260% jump across 2026. Nvidia spent $145 billion in a single quarter securing parts. Gross margin was 75% this quarter. Kress guided it to 71% or 72% by Q4 before price increases lift it back toward 73%. The quarter itself: $96.2 billion of revenue, up 106% from a year ago, with Data Center revenue up 117% to $89 billion. Net income up 126% to $59.7 billion. Guidance for the current quarter is $108 billion. Rationing your own output while growing 70% is a supply problem, not a market problem. The first kind gets solved with capital and time. The second does not. I think the real risk in this cycle stopped being demand and became procurement, which is slower to fix and much less exciting to talk about. Whoever locks up memory, power and grid capacity at a workable price gets the growth. Everyone else gets the press release. Which company on your watch list has already secured its physical supply for the next two years?

Rocky📈 (@RockyMsx) reportedThe best in the world: high expectations, high growth, high guidance, but there are still institutional dissatisfactions In the second fiscal quarter, NVIDIA’s revenue recorded the highest year-on-year growth rate in two years. The revenue of the data center increased by 117% year-on-year, and the gross margin remained the same as 75% of the previous quarter. The net income of equity securities was nearly 7.8 billion US dollars in the quarter. The year-on-year growth of the meden value of the revenue guidance in the third fiscal quarter slowed down to nearly 90%, excluding the calculated revenue of China‘s data centers, which did not exceed the most optimistic expectations of the institution. The medan gross margin guideline fell to 74%, slightly lower than expected. NVIDIA said that Rubin has accelerated to enter full mass production, and Huang Renxun said that AI has reached an inflection point, and now computing power is income. After the financial report, the after-hours stock price fell by 4% for a while. The phone call revealed that after the revenue increased by 70% in the next fiscal year and Amazon promised to significantly increase the adoption of NVIDIA products, it rose by nearly 5% after the market. $NVDA

POWER•OF•INFORMATION (@BitcoinisLove3) reported**$MAG7 on Base + how Coinbase Tokenized Stocks actually work** $MAG7 on Base (Reserve DTF, liquidity on Aerodrome) is built to hold the Magnificent 7 via Coinbase’s tokenized shares: Apple (AAPLc) · Microsoft · Nvidia (NVDAc) · Amazon · Alphabet (GOOGLc) · Meta (METAc) · Tesla Right now only four are live onchain (AAPL, GOOGL, META, NVDA). The rest of the basket is USDC until Coinbase drops the other three. Then it goes equal-weight and rebalances every two months. These are not synthetics or broker IOUs. Coinbase Onchain SPV Ltd (ADGM / Abu Dhabi) issues B20 tokens on Base. Authorized participants buy the real stock, Alpaca holds it 1:1 in segregated, bankruptcy-remote custody. You get a beneficial claim on the share. You hold the token in your own wallet. Trade 24/7 on Aerodrome. Use it in DeFi (lend, borrow, LP). No US brokerage account needed — but only if you’re outside the US in an eligible jurisdiction. Americans are locked out. Classic offshore workaround while the SEC still hasn’t figured out its own rules. Dividends don’t hit your wallet as cash. After 30% US withholding + a 5% issuer fee they get reinvested into more shares. An onchain multiplier adjusts your claim so your token balance never changes and DeFi positions don’t break. Same for splits. You get economic exposure. You do **not** automatically get voting rights. Those are reserved for “vested” holders who complete extra KYC and get onto the legal register. Most wallet holders stay unvested. Redemption back into actual stock or cash exists on paper, but it’s gated, checked, and not as simple as a swap. So: real shares, onchain, 24/7, composable — wrapped in an ADGM trust structure with fees, restrictions, and a multiplier instead of a dividend check. Closer to actual equity than most tokenized-stock products. Still not the same as sitting in the DTC register with a US broker. Read the prospectus. Don’t just ape the Base announcement.

FSMN (@faststocknewss) reportedNVIDIA $NVDA CFO SAYS AWS TO DEPLOY 2 MILLION ADDITIONAL GPUS IN 2027-2028 Customer commitments: • Amazon $AMZN Web Services to deploy 2 million additional Nvidia GPUs across its global infrastructure in 2027-2028 • The two will build data centers for the US government including 100,000 GPUs on secure AWS infrastructure • Neocloud partners expected to exit the year with 8 gigawatts of total installed capacity • Demand from AI labs expected to contribute roughly a quarter of the business next year Product ramp: • Production shipments of Vera Rubin commenced earlier this month, seen at about 20% of data center revenue in Q3 • Next-generation Vera CPU in full production • Groq 3 LPX shipping in volume later this quarter to early adopters, with Nebius $NBIS first On costs, the CFO cited "extreme pricing conditions in memory" and higher component costs weighing on margins. Q3 gross margin is guided to 74.0%, down from 75.0% in Q2. Supply is expected to remain a bottleneck at least through the end of fiscal 2028. Nvidia disclosed $279B in supply and capacity commitments this quarter, up from $119B, primarily memory procurement.
