Nvidia $NVDA MOAT IS PROTECTED BY THREE KEY PILLARS
• CUDA lock-in -- decades of ecosystem depth and unmatched developer tooling • Supply chain control -- co-designed with $TSM, early access to HBM3E, and vertical coordination • Inference dominance -- where most AI workloads are headed, and where NVIDIA leads on both efficiency and software Source: Futurum Equities @FuturumEquities
Current SP500 bull market vs. history by Grant Hawkridge on X
The S&P 500 is up 72.6% over 678 trading days since the 2022 low, below the average bull market gain of 153.7% over 1,145 days. We’re now in year 3, a phase that’s historically flat and choppy. This bull isn’t young, but it’s not stretched either. History still favors more upside… just not in a straight line.

WHO RUNS THE OIL WORLD?
The US isn’t just flipping burgers - it's pumping 22.7 million barrels of oil a day, more than double Saudi Arabia or Russia. That’s 22% of the world’s supply. Saudi Arabia and Russia trail with 10.7 and 10.5 million barrels/day. Canada’s in 4th (6.0), followed by China (5.3), Iran (4.7), Iraq (4.5), and Brazil (4.3). Total world production? 102.8 million barrels a day. Which means the U.S. alone is doing over a fifth of the heavy lifting. Source: Statista thru Evan on X
