On September 30, 2025, Nvidia will file its 13F form.

Jeff Weniger went through all the cycles back to 1974.
In the 12 months after the first rate cut, Consumer Discretionary went on to beat the market in 75% of the observations. Poor performers included Energy and Utilities, which beat the market in only 17% and 25% of the 12-month windows, respectively. Source: Jeff Weniger
Lot of talk how valuations are 'high'.
Here's another reminder there is virtually no correlation between P/E multiples and what the S&P 500 does the next year (R-squared of -0.01). Source: Ryan Detrick, Carson
What’s fluffy, has big ears, and has seen its stock outpace the likes of Nvidia, Palantir, and Microsoft?
It’s Build-A-Bear Workshop, of course. The almost 28-year-old mall staple where one can stuff, name, dress, and accessorize a cuddly toy has seen its stock price soar more than 2,000% over the last five years, as reported by the Washington Post on Monday, outperforming some of the hottest names in AI and technology. Indeed, a theoretical $100 invested into BBW stock at the start of 2021 would be worth ~$1,600 today — about $200 more than the theoretical value of the same amount of Nvidia stock. Since its sales plunged in 2020, Build-A-Bear has only gone from strength to strength. The company reported its best Q1 results ever in May, with revenue rising 11% to $128.4 million, having emerged as a post-pandemic winner after tapping into a lucrative market: grown adults.

AI is carrying the market:
Since ChatGPT’s launch in Nov 2022, AI-related stocks have delivered 181% gains in key names, while the rest of the S&P 500 has managed just 25%. More importantly, AI has powered 75% of total index returns, nearly 80% of earnings growth, and an incredible 90% of all capex growth. Without AI, the S&P’s rally would look far more modest.

Since 2019 the S&P 500 is up 125%.
76% of that is coming from earnings growth and 19% from dividends. As mentioned by Ryan Detrick, this isn't a bubble, this rally is justified from strong earnings growth. Source: Carson
Are you waiting for a Bear Market to invest?
This is a great idea in theory, but historically only 20% of future Bear Markets brought prices below prevailing levels. Source: Charlie Bilello
When the S&P 500 is up on the year it is up 19.0% on average.
This always surprises investors, but large gains and perfectly normal. Source: Ryan Detrik
