I don't think that would help with price - the reason companies are pumping out HBM instead of DDR5 is because AI companies pay top dollar for it.
 
If the AI bubble pops after they spent billions expanding and building data centers, hopefully that means cloud prices will drop.

I work on a processing-heavy video application. If the cost of renting GPU's to process videos drops by just a few cents, thats a game changer for apps like mine.
 
People rarely look at details and just buy on a whim after seeing up and to the right charts..

But details are important

Bottom line: To someone buying a Tesla or Tesla stock.. Elon must really get your freak on!

Oh and..

I've primarily used the old guard. MS SQL and Oracle. Java and C# using explicit type variables.

MongoDB use to be the little guy. Cloud native deployments have made it huge.

I honestly don't know what's a worse investment.. scam altman's open ai or intel.

There's just gotta be less risky places to park what little money you have. QQQ comes to mind!

Money is relative. Compared to some, we all have very little so that doesn't bother me.

I keep an open mind however to what I see and hear. It helps.

When the CEO of Intel changed to an experienced veteran that was a clear signal the bottom may have been in, and so far its up bigly.

I am just acknowledging what I see.

I have been researching what could technically be the 7th stock in the mag 7 since I don't like Tesla.

Broadcom
Berkshire
Walmart
Visa
Mastercard
Spotify

Which of these megacaps would you feel safe with?

I have an open mind like you.. and you can go outside the list too.

Those are all good choices. You also suggested QQQ, thats actually the best bet of all IMO. The largest 100 tech stocks.

So it looks like a 5-7% ROI year for me. Could be better, could be worse.

Before I got into stocks and index funds.. I would play it safe with power index annuity's.

Those are safer investments where you are locked in with a downside and an upside.

If market goes down.. you don't lose money.. infact you make some money like maybe 1-3%. If the market goes up you make 5-8% but you miss out on gains if it went up 20%.

But there's a lot less surprises and volatility. I'm convinced it has a place in a portfolio as one gets older and doesn't want to gamble it all on whims of the market.

The downside for me is I can't touch those funds till I'm 59 1/2 so it behaves just like an IRA.

I can sell whenever I want, but I don't need more cash ATM. Currently it's like getting 13 months of salary, for 12 months of work. 🙂

But that was some time ago and didnt jump then.
It jumped on Government 10% to like 30%, then snailed up to 35-ish, then to 40+.
Makes no sense unless they locked in some AI deals AND there is word on the street that their fab bets FINALLY is panning out.
