  • I did the same thing. I moved to investments in the raw materials used to make the chips. I wanted to keep some AI related investments for the rise of the bubble so I moved my money out of microsoft, alphabet, amazon and nvidia and put it into Taiwan semiconductor manufacturing and Samsung electronics. The components will be already paid for while the software side of things implodes. At the beginning of Q4 I plan to move the profit and 50% of my base investment from component manufacturing into bonds so I can retain some of that value.

    The AI bubble is going to fuck up the economy again. I had a ROI of 29% which seems insane. So many people are going to lose funds from their 401Ks when the bubble pops. Most people that have 401K through their jobs just let the entity managing the funds make the investments for them into something like retirement trusts/target date funds. Depending on the target date, most of what they are investing in is domestic funds where alphabet, amazon, meta are like the top stocks.

    I urge everyone to read the prospectus documents attached to the trusts/target date funds you are investing in to see if you are in danger based on the top 10 stocks associated with your investment product.


  • Love how Gustafsson is focused on the money of old gamers.

    I’m 47. I would be the prime target for this sort of campaign. Except a I’ve been boycotting shitty companies for so long any nostalgia I might have felt at the thought buying consoles, or a game published by EA, Activision, or Blizzard has been dead for more than a decade.

    The enshitification of triple AAA titles by MBAs has driven me away from the space. Keep fucking slapping surcharges on EVERYTHING; day one dlc, microtransactions, always online DRM, the ability to revoke access to the games we paid for, because we never really owned it.

    I will continue to ignore your shitty products and purchase small indie titles on PC that take risks and innovate. Withholding my money and refusing to purchase your shit will provide publishers with a sense of pride and accomplishment for retaining their customer base.
