Big Tech Is Diluting You to Fund AI Compute

In a solo Monday edition of the RiskReversal Podcast, Dan Nathan recaps a volatile week marked by major tech earnings, a Fed decision and press conference, rising yields, and looming catalysts including the election and the October jobs report. He notes the S&P’s tight consolidation despite sharp moves in mega-cap tech, with weakness in Alphabet, Meta and Amazon contrasted with relative strength in Microsoft, and highlights a dramatic Intel plunge on weak guidance as a warning about AI-trade narratives, heavy CapEx and negative cash flow. He questions enthusiasm for massive AI-related IPOs amid widespread debt and capital raising by large tech firms, flags stress in “neo-clouds” and software (including ServiceNow), and previews key upcoming reports from Apple, Palantir, AMD and others while discussing oil, volatility and market positioning.
