SUPER MICRO’S SECOND CHANCE OR NASDAQ’S NEXT SCANDAL?
Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI) is under the Nasdaq microscope again, and it’s not a pretty sight for the exchange. The company missed its 10-K filing deadline back in August and already filed an NT 10-Q form anticipating they won’t be able to file its 10-Q on time either. Now…
SOFTBANK IS RUNNING OUT OF CASH, BUT NO WORRIES NVIDIA IS TRYING TO RESCUE IT
As I was finishing up drafting this article, a “breaking news” pops up: “SoftBank to get first NVIDIA chips for Japan super computer”. How timely, right?

UNTANGLING THE GREAT MICROSOFT ACCOUNTING (BORDERLINE FRAUDULENT) SHENANIGANS
Another great quarter for Microsoft that beat Wall Street analysts’ expectations comfortably (what a surprise), but once again the tides turned when the management started to provide guidance on future growth that came short of what investors were expecting, sending the stock price negative almost 4% during after-hours trading.

“HYPERSCALERS” OR “HYPERCHEATERS”? – ADDING HINDENBURG PIECE TO THE BIG PONZI PUZZLE WE HAVE BEEN PUTTING TOGETHER TILL NOW WHILE WAITING FOR NVIDIA EARNINGS
As as soon as Hindenburg Research’s (a famous short-selling hedge fund) piece “Super Micro: Fresh Evidence Of Accounting Manipulation, Sibling Self-Dealing And Sanctions Evasion At This AI High Flyer” was published I started to be flooded with notifications about it and when I picked up my phone, I have to…
HOW COULD JAPAN RECOVER SO FAST FROM THE WORST CRASH SINCE 1987? THANKS TO ITS GPIF “ANGEL”
No person can pretend to know everything; it is simply not humanly possible. If anyone claims to do so, more often than not, they actually know little in reality. Personally, I use an investigative approach in everything I do, most of all to fill the gaps in my ignorance. This…
IF JPY CARRY TRADE TROUBLES SPOIL THE UPCOMING NVIDIA PARTY, GET READY FOR A SPIKE IN VOLATILITY
From a fundamental perspective, no matter from which angle you look at it, NVIDIA should be nowhere near its current price for a number of reasons, most of which are shady, to say the least, we discussed so far: However, here we are with a 3 trillion-plus market cap stock…
