That session was precise. It targeted the AI buildout chain. Semis, hardware, data center names. Arm Holdings (ARM) lost close to a tenth of its value. Oracle (ORCL) dropped on pure spillover.

Today's setup is a coin flip. At 2pm, the Fed holds rates. Powell speaks for what is likely his last time as chair. At 10am, the Senate Banking Committee votes on Kevin Warsh. After the bell, Alphabet (GOOGL), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), and Meta (META) all report.

The market is holding its breath for the earnings, not the rate decision.

Market Implication

The market is pricing the AI spend cycle as guilty until cleared. Tonight's earnings either acquit or convict. If capex numbers hold across all four names, Tuesday was a shakeout. If any one walks it back, the damage runs through the buildout chain by morning.

The first was the OpenAI revenue miss. The Wall Street Journal reported that OpenAI missed its own targets for sales and users. The CFO told leaders she's worried about paying future compute contracts. Oracle holds a massive long-term compute deal. AMD fell. Broadcom fell. CoreWeave fell. The entire buildout chain fell on a single CFO's concern.

The second was the UAE leaving OPEC. Effective May 1, the UAE exits both OPEC and OPEC+ after six decades. The Iran war already wiped out a huge share of OPEC output. Hormuz stays closed. And now the cartel's number-three producer has walked away. Short-term supply stays tight. Long-term, OPEC's grip on supply just broke.

Structural Setup

The AI capex cycle and the oil supply chain are running rival stress tests. Capex is being tested from the demand side. Oil supply is being tested from the inside. Energy costs feed straight into data center run costs. If oil stays high and capex commitments wobble, the squeeze hits both sides.

With this audacious move, President Trump could seal his historic legacy.

Minting a whole new generation of American millionaires in the process.

And nobody is paying attention.

But in this jaw-dropping new video, one ex-Wall Street insider exposes the smoking gun evidence that a Trump-approved $7.5 trillion tsunami is about to hit the markets.

Including a personal letter,  written by President Trump himself, revealing why phase one of this secret plan could be just days away.

Semis led the losses. ARM dropped sharply as the worst name in the Nasdaq 100. AMD, Broadcom (AVGO), and Marvell (MRVL) all pulled back. The pain hit names tied to AI build.

Staples names held. Coca-Cola (KO) rallied on a beat-and-raise. General Motors (GM) crushed its print and raised the full-year bar. Nucor (NUE) topped targets. Firms with price power and real sales held. Firms levered to someone else's spending did not.

Breadth was thin. More than half of all listed names fell. The Russell fell harder than the S&P, giving back a slice of April's massive rally.

Sector Read

Pricing power is the filter. Names that can pass through costs are holding. Names tied to someone else's capex budget are not. Watch capex talk from Microsoft and Meta tonight. If either walks back spending guidance, the damage hits CoreWeave, Oracle, and the colocation stack by morning.

Rates hold.

Markets price it at full certainty.

What matters is the handoff. Warsh has telegraphed a new price framework and a smaller balance sheet. Powell's chair term expires in mid-May. At the presser the question isn't rates. It's whether Powell stays on the board or walks.

The global picture clouds the handoff. The Bank of Japan held rates Tuesday but a third of the board pushed for a hike. The BOJ slashed growth and raised its price outlook. Oil costs from the Iran war are pushing prices higher worldwide. Prices are near two-year highs. Warsh gets a Fed boxed in by oil-driven price spikes it can't control and a labor market that won't break.

Watch Signal

Watch Powell's presser for any signal on his future. Powell stays: Warsh leads with a dissenting voice in the room, split decisions become more likely, and rate-sensitive names stay rangebound. Powell exits: Warsh runs a unified committee, balance sheet reduction accelerates, and long-duration assets reprice faster. Watch the two-year in the first thirty minutes. Above 3.90 percent means clean Warsh handoff. Below 3.75 percent means continuity is still priced in.

When I first found this company, I thought it had to be a mistake.

Massive profits. A partnership tied to AI. And a price so low it made no sense.

The deeper I looked, the clearer it became — this was what I call a rare “unicorn” stock: wildly profitable and deeply undervalued.

Out of more than 23,000 public companies, only one fits this setup right now.

Even more intriguing, it could play a major role in solving the AI energy crisis — using AI itself — and has received public backing from President Trump.

ORCL didn't fall on its own earnings. It fell on OpenAI's numbers. Oracle holds the primary compute deal with OpenAI. When OpenAI's CFO doubts the contract, Oracle's deal flow is the thing she's doubting.

Tonight, the big four report. Each is spending tens of billions on AI capex this year. The ask is no longer if they can spend. It's whether the customers can afford what they're building.

The Read

Oracle's stock didn't move on Oracle's core numbers. It moved on its customer's power to honor a contract. That's the tell. When your revenue depends on someone else's sales growth, and that growth just missed, you're not a builder. You're a counterparty. Tonight tells us whether the rest of the stack falls the same way.

Tomorrow morning, four of the most important AI earnings reports in a decade will be in the rearview mirror. Either capex numbers hold and the OpenAI miss was one-off noise. Or the miss was the first crack. The first admission that the demand side of this cycle can't keep up with the supply side.

The Fed call will be forgotten by Thursday. But the earnings hit tonight. If Microsoft or Meta walk back spending, the AI capex trade reprices from growth to credit risk by dawn. If all four confirm, the dip was a gift. There's no middle ground. That's the reason to open tomorrow's edition.
