She's been holding onto this since it was flat, but now it's rising which is sticking because there's optimism in tech and healthcare. This rotation into HC has been stable and durable. HS will be one of the next big beneficiaries of AI, but the cost of AI has to fall first. It will take a little while, but you are paid to wait. Enter HC now.

The Google chip deal is typical--the hyperscalers want customized chips. If Marvell builds the relationship with Google, will Google turn to Marvell for silicon purchases. This would hurt Broadcom. It's a good deal; it will lead to future purchases.

He loves the growth in AWS.

She sold it last June. Will definitely be driven by crypto, which is finally waking up, so HOOD could wake up too.

Right now he's attracted to companies that, for some reason, the market hates. Whether it's META, UBER, V, or NFLX. Some are at 52-week highs, but haven't done a lot over the last 4-5 years. Instead, money's been rotating into the hot areas. 

He sees so many opportunities in dislocated, high-quality companies. Growing really fast, but valuation is the cheapest it's been in a long time given the opportunities ahead.

He's held the hyperscalers as core holdings since 2015 and he still sees upside. The past quarter validated that with acceleration in the cloud business by Amazon, Microsoft and Google. Margins increased. But there will be more competition for AI services and prices are reducing for best-in-class models. Meta's in the doghouse from regulatory issues and are spending a lot of money but their core advertising business is on fire, which may surpass Google Shopify is using AI to accelerate its core offerings. As for software, Microsoft's Co-Pilot keeps getting better, while ServiceNow will build AI functionality across all its platforms. End users will use software they already trust, but will use AI.

The S&P is in a bullish trend with the moving averages (13-, 26- and 40-weeks) sloping upwards. It has a strong floor of support under the 13-week. The S& recently made a 52-week high but didn't reach the top of the Bollinger bands, which means the index lacks momentum. However, watch 7,620, a key level if the S&P breaks down and could signal a sell-off. However, keep an eye on the bond market and the 2-year treasury yield; if it rises above 4.24% we're in trouble and the S&P will drift down to 7,514 (support). If rates stay in control, the S&P will keep rising. The S&P equal weighted index is outperforming the market cap weigh. Here too the three moving averages are sloping up, beautiful. Support is 8,360 in SPEXW. SOX index (the semis): support is 10,797, but we still need to see if the uptrend will continue. Watch NVDA's report next week which could give SOX a major boost. 

It's 55 years since Nixon took the world off the gold standard. Gold demand: 45% from India and China, mostly jewelry for gifts, but is a huge variable as the gold price fluctuates; 5% used in electronics and medical devices, but gold is expensive so other materials are used; 22% from central banks who keep buying more gold, and 28% from investments like ETFs, which is the speculative part. He likes gold and is bullish, because governments are inept at managing tax dollars. Gold will rise in the long run, but won't break out but go sideways for many years.

He predicted a return to 72 cents, but now predicts a fall to 70 cents, perhaps 68, because we are the weakest G7 economy with little improvement. Also, our taxes our high compares to peers. He's been buying USD during this rally.
