#### [A very interesting development yesterday ➡️](https://blog.syzgroup.com/syz-the-moment/a-very-interesting-development-yesterday-%EF%B8%8F?hsLang=en)

Hyperscalers are bucking the AI selloff. Goldman’s trading desk flagged a rotation within tech, with hyperscalers outperforming by 350 bps while semiconductors lagged by 250 bps as investors sold chip stocks to fund other positions. The logic is that tighter restrictions on data center expansion could make existing compute capacity more valuable. Hyperscalers could gain pricing power while spending less on new capacity, potentially freeing up cash for buybacks. The rest of the AI trade remains under pressure. Goldman’s AI Leaders basket fell 500 bps, power-related stocks fell 600 bps and data center stocks fell 540 bps. The rotation suggests investors are rewarding companies that already own scarce compute capacity while marking down those that depend on the next wave of construction. Source: TME, LSEG

@sonusvarghese looked at the tech bust and found the S&P 500 fell 11% from April to December 2000, yet low volatility stocks soared 32%. 👉 Bottom line: it might make sense to keep well diversified portfolios mixing AI-stories (on a selective basis) and a basket of low-vol, high quality stocks Source; Ryan Detrick
