IS MAGNETAR CAPITAL BLOWING AIR INTO THE NVIDIA (PONZI) SCHEME SO THEY CAN BET ON ITS IMPLOSION?
First of all, what is Magnetar Capital (MC)? It’s a hedge fund, no wait, it’s a private equity, no actually it’s a shadow bank, ehm, what the heck is MC? It’s a very interesting combination of the three categories I mentioned above and it has been working quite well for…
THE DARK CORNERS OF NVIDIA 10-Q REVEAL THE EXTENT OF THE NVIDIA FRAUD
The #Nvidia 10-Q for the latest quarter is now out, and I have to admit the company is doing an incredibly good job in covering its back from any potential legal consequences of its actions once the incredible Ponzi scheme they are part of will inevitably collapse under its own…

Yesterday, I posed this question: “WHAT IF NVIDIA SIMPLY TAGGED ALONG WITH A MICROSOFT AZURE SCAM PLAYBOOK?”. Twenty-four hours later, the company themselves replied to the question (I believe involuntarily), and the answer was “YES”. Please take a look at the part I highlighted from the #NVIDIA CFO commentary related…
WHAT IF NVIDIA SIMPLY TAGGED ALONG WITH A MICROSOFT AZURE SCAM PLAYBOOK?
3 months ago in “NVIDIA, ITS RECYCLED “#AI REVOLUTION” AND THE DARK SIDE OF IT KEPT AWAY FROM THE PUBLIC”, we already saw how the “#AI Revolution” was a PR campaign #NVIDIA tried to push already several times in the past without success. #OpenAI, a company founded on the 11th…

*INDIA 2024 ELECTIONS SPECIAL* – MARKETS ALWAYS GET ELECTION RESULTS RIGHT, BUT INVESTORS DON’T

THE DANGERS OF FINANCIAL ENGINEERING AND, WHEN THAT IS NOT ENOUGH, ACCOUNTING FRAUD
I have to admit, yesterday was one of those days when I personally struggled quite a bit. While I was going through #UBS financial statements, finding something incredible (if not shocking) on every other page, #UBS share price was skyrocketing in the market (UBS Q1-24 RESULTS REVIEW – THE “LA…
