What Kris argued
Paraphrased and attributed, with the date and a link where one exists. DeepStack keeps no score of who was right; the dated tests do that work in the open.
Part 17 · The weak link pays firstSep 28, 2026
Kris has always said that if one pin falls among the AI companies many others would follow; they mostly thought of OpenAI, but consider Oracle a weak link in the chain as well.
Part 17 · Voices that cross sidesJun 28, 2026
Kris repeats a long-held view that one should not expect the AI bubble to burst simply because it is a bubble; technological revolutions typically skip efficiency first and overspend, and the current data-center build-out assumes linear capacity…
Part 17 · Voices that cross sidesAug 24, 2026
Kris argues that the widespread professional view of an AI/chip bubble is wrong, because infrastructure companies have multi-year supply contracts and chipmakers like Micron and Nvidia cannot currently produce enough chips to satisfy demand.
Part 15 · Oil stays out of the coreSep 28, 2026
Kris reports that Bill Ackman raised the thought that higher interest rates may not reduce inflation this time because demand for AI and energy is not affected by higher rates, and Kris says there is something to be said for this.
Oil Is the Headline. The Real Yield Is the Bill. Who is on each side
Part 15 · Voices that cross sides
Nominal growth outruns the rate; the oil inflation is one hikes won't cure.

Part 10 · Everyone, soonSep 16, 2026also Part 08
AWS has had more demand than supply, with customers wanting more AWS capacity for AI than could be served despite large Nvidia orders and Amazon's own Trainium chips, and Kris considers this kind of capacity-constrained spending among the best…
Part 07 · Growth: yields are catching upSep 21, 2026
Interest rate hikes are not currently a problem for the economy or investing, because if the economy and company profits grow faster than the interest rate, value is created, and the estimated Q3 GDP growth of 5.1% plus inflation gives nominal…

Part 07 · Growth: yields are catching upSep 21, 2026
The main reason for higher inflation is probably the more expensive oil, and a higher interest rate will not cure that; the Fed just wants to ensure inflation doesn't get out of hand.

Part 04 · The spending is defenseJul 26, 2026
The Mag7 capex boom should be read the same way: the risk of not investing heavily is much higher than the risk of overinvesting, which is why Alphabet announced more investment and others will follow, since their existence is at stake.

Part 02 · Exit liquidityJun 8, 2026
Retail buyers of the SpaceX IPO are the exit liquidity: the fancy name for paying insiders, VCs and early investors at peak hype valuations.

Part 02 · Exit liquidityJun 8, 2026also Part 01
The Google SpaceX GPU rental is bullish for Nvidia because there are still not enough GPUs to quench demand; Nvidia ramps production continuously but cannot follow demand.

Bullish on demand, and endorses the GFC earnings-quality parallel.
