Bull case
7 takesInference demand is not a narrative anymore. NVDA customers are still supply-constrained into next year. Stay long the picks and shovels.
COST just keeps printing. Boring is the actual alpha while everyone argues about the next 10-bagger.
Call buying in MEGA cap tech is back to January vibes. Not a sell signal yet, but the crowd is no longer scared.
Nobody on this website wants to own XOM until oil is already $20 higher. Classic.
