... Keep sliding

Let me Quote Kylo Ren:

Please let it crash and the price of pc parts start to come down… My ceiling fell on my pc last week and replacing the ceiling is already too expensive let alone the pc :(
Since, my friend,
you have revealed your deepest fears,
I sentence you to be exposed
before your peers!
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!
This just means it was always overvalued. They only lost value was invented by airhead day traders.
s/Worth/Valued/
It’s never been worth what they claim.
8 months ago I moved 50% of my 457b money out of Amazon, meta, and Nvidia. I put it into Taiwan semiconductors, lithium and other minerals mining abroad. My ROI went from 21% to 10%, but hopefully I won't be holding the bag when the bubble pops. Since taiwan makes custom chips for everyone else, I figure they will have income streams from non-AI industries and not be hit as hard. Along with the big push to renewable energy everywhere else, battery production and mineral production will probably be ok too.
What is 457b money? You have 457 billion? Or it's a name for some investment account?
Think of it like a 401k or Roth account for government workers. The tax rules are mostly the same, except when we leave government service, we can withdraw the money without penalty.
They're down like 1.17% year to date, but it seems like the hype train has finally ran out of steam.
They're gonna be the last to fall because they're at the eye of the storm.
Look at Kioxia for example: +124% year to date, and yet down 52.4% just this month.
It's a massive sell-off and it's still accelerating.
The rules are made up, and the fundamentals dont matter.
They're at where they were in April 2026. Looking like the AI peak was at the start of October. I think its still to early to say whether the bubble is bursting since a similar drop happened in April last year.

Not affecting me, still broke.
So they care about gamers again?
Damn. That's more than I make in a whole year!
It would be nice if we suddenly got a glut of discounted hardware for Black Friday and Christmas. I would like to fill out my PC with x4 RTX 4090 Specials, for 192gb of VRAM. Maybe 2tb of DDR5 7200 RAM.
A human can dream...
If you just let Sammy Boi have them the robots can dream for you and you can just die in a pile with the rest of us humans
I dream of AM5 mostly but I haven't dared yet to look up RAM or GPUs because I feel like I couldn't take it.
OpenAI is the one holding the chipworld hostage. They need to fall to realize your dream.
Upcoming one time charge to open Golden Parachutes for all current c-suites.
