  @StockMKTNewz So Amazon finds the jailbreak, the government panics, and Anthropic shuts the model down for everyone. That is a very strange way to do AI safety.

  Once again, I was let down by brick & mortar retail. Needed an attachment for a power tool. Ace hardware had none (but had the sanding pads), Home Depot had only ONE and it was the wrong size. Came home, checked Amazon, found a 2-pack, correct size, $5 cheaper than HD's 1-pack.

  @KJP @rrcjaf This is a jacket that can be passed down the generations. It might cost more than ordering something from Amazon, but by the time you calculate it's cost per year of owning it, it will end up costing much less.

  AAOI ripped 10× from $15 to $233 on the perfect AI optics shortage story. But its own earnings is calling the entire narrative bullshit. Longs need flawless execution quarter after quarter plus a world that stays friendly. Bears only need one thing: hope to finally run dry. And hope is always loudest right before it dies. AAOI is screaming its head off. The 10x that the company's own numbers don't believe $15 to $233 on the hottest story in hardware: an 800G/1.6T shortage 40-60% undersupplied through 2027, datacenter revenue +154%, $1.1B FY26 guide, and “China InP ban equals US fab jackpot.” Then you check the one number that actually matters. At the absolute peak of the scarcity every bull is high on: - Lumentum gross margin: +1,270 bps - Coherent: +105 bps - AAOI: -150 bps, down to 29.1% The grown-ups raised prices and printed fatter margins in the best market they will ever see. AAOI’s margin went backwards. They are not capturing the bottleneck. They are the sweatiest guy inside it — selling everything they can make at prices other people set, while the market pays them like they own the choke point. A real bottleneck raises price into scarcity. AAOI couldn’t lift a single basis point during the greatest optics squeeze in history. That is not a moat. That is a tell. The "bullish" China ban is loading the other guy's gun The InP export control is supposed to bless US laser fabs. Except AAOI’s lasers come off an outdated small-wafer line in Texas, a full generation behind Coherent, so domestic Chinese substrate access does nothing for them. Meanwhile that same loophole exempts the actual killers. InnoLight and Eoptolink — 60% of global 800G between them, $3B+ scale, 20%+ net margins — get cheap permit-free substrate at home and quietly reload for the 2027 price war. InnoLight ships more in a month than AAOI ships in a year. Beijing didn’t build AAOI a wall. It handed its competitors ammunition and a head start. A trapdoor with a rug on it - 98% of revenue from the top 10 customers. Microsoft alone ~29%. - Purchase orders, not contracts. No demand floor. Amazon even pays partly in dilution. - We have seen this exact movie. 2018: the top customer blinked, revenue went $330M to $224M, stock went $100 to under $10. No pricing power and no committed demand. That is the financial equivalent of standing on a rug over an open elevator shaft and admiring the view. So is it about to pop? Honestly, probably not tomorrow. This is the part people get wrong about shorting bubbles: being right early is just being wrong with extra steps. The shortage has real legs into 2027. AAOI keeps beating and raising, the headlines keep landing ("800G is now our biggest segment"), and a stock like this can stay irrational longer than the impatient can stay solvent. Fighting the melt-up while the squeeze is still on is how shorts become the bagholders. So near-term, the air is still in it. The hype has fuel left. So when does it actually pop? When the scarcity that's holding the whole thing up goes away. That's not a vibe, it's a schedule. The flood of new supply, including AAOI's own 930k-modules-a-month of 2027 capacity and the substrate-free Chinese giants ramping into the same window, all lands in 2027. The moment 800G stops being short, a company with no pricing power and no contracts has nothing left to stand on. The tells that the air is leaving, in order: - Chinese 1.6T price cuts from InnoLight or Eoptolink. That's the war starting. - AAOI's gross margin cracking below 28% while datacenter mix rises. That's the price-taker getting confirmed in the numbers. - 800G spot premiums collapsing under 10%. That's the shortage ending in real time. And the things that would mean the bears are wrong, worth watching honestly: a real equity or long-term-agreement deal from a hyperscaler, the way NVIDIA put $2B each into Lumentum and Coherent, or margins that somehow sustain above 33%. Either of those rewrites the story, and you'd have to respect it. This isn't a bet that the company is a fraud. It's a read that the story sprinted miles ahead of the cash flows, and gravity tends to show up the moment supply normalizes. Bottom line AAOI is the rare setup where all three legs of a perfect short line up at once: 1. No pricing power. At the peak of the greatest optics shortage in history, its margin went down while Lumentum's and Coherent's went up. If you can't raise price in this market, you never will. 2. The "tailwind" is actually a headwind. The China InP control everyone cites as bullish does nothing for AAOI's outdated Texas fab and quietly arms its substrate-free Chinese competitors for the 2027 price war. There's no cavalry coming. The thing they're cheering is the thing that kills them. 3. No floor under the demand. 98% of revenue in ten customers, ~29% in one, all on purchase orders with no commitments. We've seen exactly how this ends: 2018, top customer blinked, $100 to under $10. AAOI is a price-taker with no moat, no savior, and no demand floor — trading at a choke-point multiple while flying on vibes. It is not a choke point. It is just busy. And busy is not a multiple. It's not a chokepoint. It's just busy. And busy is not a multiple.

  I woke up from a deep slumber and shuffled into the kitchen to make coffee, only to discover I was completely out of milk. Back in India, I’d simply borrow some from the neighbors. But this is the USA. Thankfully, I’d already solved this very problem by ordering single-serve dairy creamers. I searched the kitchen high and low but couldn’t find them. A quick check of my Amazon order history confirmed they’d been delivered a week ago. Ah, right… I was out late that day. So I went down to the apartment’s package room and started digging under a mountain of Amazon Prime Early Sale boxes. And there it was, my little box of creamers, still patiently waiting for me. Crisis averted. I’ve officially solved the “no milk” problem without having to knock on any neighbors’ doors. ☕

  Key line here: the NSA fact checked Amazon and found their findings credible. That means the jailbreak was serious enough that the National Security Agency gave it the thumbs down

  I don’t know if I can ever trust Amazon MGM again if they don’t resolve or communicate more about this cancellation. I’m hopeful that we can make some noise and maybe get some people listening! But if they truly do burn down the old to make a completely new “thing” after teasing us with what I call “as close to perfect as we were ever going to get” Then good luck @AmazonMGMStudio you clearly know something we don’t. Because fan wise and trust wise. There’s ground to cover. #SaveStargate
