Nvidia is not 16% of the US of economy. This is nonsense.
AI capex is powering GDP growth right now but it's still like <1% of the US GDP according to GS.
Lots of ways to make the argument that AI poses a risk to growth but this isn't it.

I very much endorse this. I feel a LOT better after attending a rally/protest. And it's not just superficial; you actually ARE helping by getting the word out and showing people that they are not alone in this. Every. Person. Counts.
There’s an overwhelming number of awful things happening.
My gentle suggestion is to consider attending a protest tomorrow if you can.
In addition to exercising your rights, it can be helpful to be in a sea of people who share your values.
MAGA has exploited this, and now it’s our turn.

Really important story - army officials asked soldiers to identify themselves if they don't agree with Trump's politics that way he'd get only supportive soldiers in uniform during his political rally on base. Heavier soldiers were also barred from participating.
