It’s OVER! The Bubble’s Popped! 💥 

It’s OVER! The bubble’s popped! This is the worst day in the market since…. 40 days ago.

Everyone needs to chill out.

Now is the time to best time to be buying up all these tech stocks. If I thought Nvidia was a buy yesterday, you can only imagine what I think of it after a 17% discount today.

Walk with me through the fire so I can show why it’s not that bad.

Headlines You Need to Know 📰 

This all happened because a Chinese AI lab, DeepSeek, just dropped their latest model. DeepSeek-R1. It’s a free open-source AI model & everyone has lost their minds. Here’s why:

• Built for $6M using Nvidia H800 chips. When you compare that to what the US tech guys have been spending, it’s made investors worried that they’re actually just wasting money.

• Goes head to head with OpenAI’s GPT-o1 in math, coding & reasoning benchmarks. Oh & it costs 95% less.

• Already #1 on Apple’s App Store

• Licensed under MIT. It means anyone can tweak, reuse, or build on it.

All this took them 2 months to build this bad boy. TWO MONTHS. 😳

The Secret Sauce 🤫 

How have they done it so cheaply? Part of the reason is how they’re training the AI.

The big boys have dumped billions into training models. DeepSeek have leaned into reinforcement learning. So what’s that?

The model trains itself to get smarter without a fleshy human doing all the hand-holding. An AI on autopilot.

Another super interested play is making it open source. Microsoft & OpenAI lock up their tech like Fort Knox while DeepSeek is giving you the keys at the door.

It means researchers & developers on a budget, even people like you & me, can try our hand at a little innovation. AI for the people. I approve.

Why The Panic Attack? 😬 

We can’t all live in harmony. Everyone’s out to win & the market see this as a threat to U.S. dominance in AI. Apparently that means you have to dump all your US tech stocks.

In total, the combined losses across Nasdaq 100 futures & Europe’s tech stocks wiped out $1.2 trillion in market cap. I can’t even put in to words about how much of an overreaction I feel this is. But it’s fine. I’m prepared.

I said a few emails back I was waiting for $21,600 & I certainly got that. 😅 And I stuck to my word, entered a few Nasdaq futures & already being rewarded.

And if you don’t wanna take my word for it, there’s people a lot smarter than me saying this is a gross overreaction.

What the Experts Are Saying 🤓

Wedbush Securities: “Yeah, DeepSeek’s model is cool, but the U.S. tech giants are still lightyears ahead. The real money is in enterprise AI & infrastructure. Areas where DeepSeek can’t compete (yet).”

TD Cowen: “DeepSeek isn’t the problem. If anything, this is just going to create more demand for Nvidia GPUs and AI hardware.”

Or if you want it in three words. BUY THE DIP.

So Now What? 🤔 

DeepSeek’s impressive. There’s no getting around it. They just proved AI doesn’t have to cost the earth.

Does that mean it’s the end of the road for US tech? Do I really need to answer that for you?

The Magnificent Seven (Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon, etc.) are all going to be totally fine. You will be too (& probably a little richer) if you stay calm & average in.
