    I think the whole honeypot thing is bullshit. Nvidia was selling GPUs to China via intermediaries. They all knew and now this is the story that’s an attempt to cover up the fact they did it on purpose for extra profit.

    Wow. Plunge 4 whole percent.

    On other days this would be considered a “modest market correction”, but today it is “plunge”.

      Relative to their peers is somewhat more telling. But generally agree.

          The company is “worth” $4.3 Trillion dollars. Losing 4% of $4.3 trillion = losing $172 billion in one day.

          Also, based on how everyone else did today, they probably would have made $172 billion if this story hadn’t come out today, therefore it’s like they lost $344 billion dollars in one day.

          His buddies on the board (who own most of the company and therefore ate most of that loss) are probably pretty pissed at him right now, and also salivating at an opportunity to take some of his shares as punishment.

    They dropped a few percent.

    Wall Street has no morals, it only dropped on the fear that this MIGHT affect them making money. It will recover shortly and people will move on.

      “A few percent” is as biased a description for -5% as “plunged”. I mean you can all it both but really both is making it sound smaller or bigger than it is.

    Well, on the positive side - at least it appears there is someone in Trump’s orbit who isn’t a pedophile.

    Curious where this goes.

    It’s not just pillow talk about state secrets, in this situation she has leverage to ruin his family and cause billions of stock market losses to Nvidia, which he has a duty to protect.

    This was a highly exploitable situation.
