AI doesn't run on chatbots. It runs on power and data centers.
Alexander Green is focused on one little-known fund in that path.

He calls it the ASI Fund and sees it sitting in the path of the AI infrastructure buildout. His briefing explains the thesis and how regular investors can get in for around $15 through an ordinary brokerage account.

  • Chipmakers got the bid: SOXX +2.85%, NXPI +4.64%, MU +2.98%, AMD +2.80%, NVDA +2.39%. Big spenders lagged: META −1.88% (it and SpaceX are seeking about $135B in AI financing), GOOGL −1.06%.

THE CLOSE

 

SPY closed 765.37 (+0.71%), QQQ 712.20 (+1.11%), DIA 522.97 (+0.31%) and IWM 276.99 (+0.45%). Tech led and communication services lagged. MSFT rose 1.54% ahead of Wednesday's report, and TSLA added 5.21%. Deals did the rest: SGRY +47.6% to $23.25, just under the $23.50 cash offer, and RRC +17.7% on EQT's all-stock deal (EQT −1.4%). The 10-year sat at 4.99% and WTI slipped 1.6% to $101.61.

Did the 3 PM read hold? So far, yes. The call was money to AI suppliers, not spenders. SOXX kept most of its gain, closing +2.85% versus +3.75% at the 1:25 PM read, and Meta finished −1.88%.

AFTER THE BELL

 

CDNS up 2% after a Q3 beat, FY26 EPS view raised to $8.37-$8.43 (consensus about $8.14).

RMBS down 6% at $85.25 despite an EPS beat.

AMKR slipped: Q3 EPS 76c missed 78c, Q4 guide 65c-75c came in under 78c.
