🎂 Jensen's Five-Layer AI Cake — NVIDIA's CEO Jensen Huang lays out his framework for how AI is built, from energy and chips to infrastructure, models, and applications. What does this roadmap mean for investors, and are our portfolios actually aligned with the tidal wave?
🌊 Catching the AI Tidal Wave — Luke and Krzysztof map their own portfolios against Jensen's five layers, discovering that the new AI era looks a lot more physical than the SaaS era — satellites, batteries, data centers, and power lines, not just software.
🐕 Is AI Actually Curing Cancer? — A viral story about an Australian tech entrepreneur who used ChatGPT and AlphaFold to design a custom mRNA vaccine for his dog's cancer sparks a bigger conversation: are we at the beginning of an AI-driven biotech revolution, and what does regulation need to look like?
⚡ DGXX Deep Dive: The Trials of Small Cap Investing — Krzysztof walks through his thesis on Digi Power X (ticker: DGXX) — a micro-cap data center and energy play with a pristine balance sheet and first AI revenue expected in April. Then the weekend drama: a 22% stock drop, insider equity controversy, and how a galvanized investor community forced management to clarify the record.
🗡️ Live by the Sword, Die by the Sword — Small cap investing means turbulence. Krzysztof reflects on the emotional rollercoaster of micro caps and the pattern across EOS, Oddity, and DGXX — massive drops, management questions, and the decision to hold or fold.
🏔️ The Valley of Death Framework — Luke revisits the US DOE's technology readiness chart from last week and applies it to the portfolio debate: why would you invest in an earlier-stage company rather than a later one? The question is left open — join the conversation in the YouTube comments!
🦁 Community Shoutouts — A big thank-you to Patreon members Steven (who built an impressive custom portfolio tracker) and Eric (sharing his AI research prompts and outputs). The Wall Street Wildlife community is leveling up.
