Transcripts
I don't want to talk about Reddit I want
to talk about Kim Kardashian and of
course Paris Hilton so Paris Hilton for
of course our audience at home she was
the Hot Topic in the early 2000s Kim
Kardashian was her friend and Amy you
venture that Nvidia is this markets
Paris
Hilton I do you know you got to write
what you know right Katie so if you're
my if you're my age then you remember
the time when Paris Hilton was the OG
and you know to me that's Nvidia you
really see that in a momentum cycle and
so the question investors are asking is
well who are the Paris Hilton adjacent
names that become the Kim gardash of the
future that's really what we're asking
with options and you see that in the
skew demand in the sentiment where the
call demand really outweighs the put
demand so in some degrees it's kind of
moved away from Nvidia into a lot of
other semis names and then interestingly
also into the cryptobase names like
coinbase and Robin Hood um where there
you know the trading is active there and
I think it's very interesting because
essentially investors are saying where's
the next momentum cycle because they
know obviously that there's a gamma
cycle attached to that there's that idea
of momentum begin getting momentum so
you know who are the future Kims not
necessarily who are the current Paris
well what which companies are in the Kim
Kardashian basket I mean you mentioned
semis imp particular I mean are there
any names that particularly stand
out yeah so you know when we had
initially done this analysis Micron had
actually not reported yet it was among
there AMD Adobe is another one a lot of
these have very near-term catalst that
are we're watching for a lot of the
names in the SMH which shouldn't
surprise you but then as I mentioned
also the cryptobase names like Robin
Hood and coin where you know there's
that sort of meme element to it that
almost hearkens back to AMC and GameStop
back in uh 2020 in 2021 so even though
of course Kim Kardashian has sort of
displaced Paris Hilton in terms of share
when it comes to the celebrity landscape
uh Paris and Nvidia I mean they can stay
hot for a long time when you take a look
at how people are positioned around
Nvidia I mean is there any anything
priced in terms of them actually losing
that mind
share No it you know that's what's
amazing is the call exuberance hasn't
waned it's just not nearly at the peak
levels that we saw call it back to last
summer but what's amazing is this left
tail the idea that any one is
considering any sort of hedging in any
of these names does not exist it's
completely absent and a lot of that is
so fascinating to me because if you're
an investor who's just simply
participated in this much upside you
think there just be some idea that maybe
I want to protect some of my gains that
is completely absent right now from
anything related to Ai and the
interesting thing is the options Market
says that continues it does not Wan from
here and of course we're talking about a
list b list celebrities but let's go
down theist list because one of the
names that has really popped out in the
past couple weeks is super micro
computers of course really coming out of
nowhere and I mean how is that reflected
when you take a look at the derivatives
markets these names that hadn't really
been on the Rad Radar in the same way
that some of the other names that we're
talking about
are the super micro is especially
fascinating to me because obviously if
you think Nvidia has done well you know
look at Super Micro in terms of the AI
performance albeit this is off a very
different market cap but what I would
say here is the first early footprints
that you got was this skew inversion
this idea that called man really began
to start outweighing put demand and one
thing you have to consider is super
micro I know it just joined the S&P but
initially it was in the Russell so you
actually had a lot of value managers who
are like you know shoot I'm not long
super micro and the problem is it's
starting to really impact my Benchmark
as a small cap investor as more of a
value proxy investor that started to
inflate the Benchmark so I thought that
was super interesting in terms of how
people have to start thinking of their
own benchmarks and Performing and
whether or not they're levered to this
AI theme going forward
