$GOOGL Gemini 4 Argon benchmarks got released. Against GPT-6 Astra + Anthropic Fable 5.1 / Opus 5.5. Still coughing nonstop, so will comment on $MU / $JBL earnings later. I've always thought Google's internal models were stellar, but anecdotally, they seem to get hard nerfed shortly after public release... Maybe because of compute constraints? But yeah, looks like Google is back.

These benchmarks are great, but I'm waiting to see how it does in the bridge benchmark :) also - probably should be long $GOOG https://t.co/5hdtMmiq4H https://t.co/4B1R4VX3J5

Gemini 4 - "Across most benchmarks, Gemini 4 Argon beats OpenAI’s and Anthropic’s top models by a wide margin, and when it doesn’t, it is generally within striking distance of its competition." - New Stack $GOOG ripping. So back https://t.co/3mF0pFC7WN https://t.co/hybzgxCRRC

Following the action in $FICO, it seems this post from @pulte has drawn increased investor attention to $STC $FAF $ORI $FNF and their title insurance pricing policies. We have had a short call on $STC and $FAF for some time. There's no doubt there are several technology options that could lower title insurance costs (AI) if not eliminate the need for it altogether (blockchain). You already have many brokers offering bundled solutions for title, mortgage, and advisory. Lots of pressure on these busineses.

And yet $MSFT $AMZN $GOOG $AVGO often go down on days when AI or Anthropic specifically has positive datapoints 😆 https://t.co/AtUMLkblDT

@DavidJang0620 I actually thought $JBL earnings were great. But usually if you disagree with how markets reacted, that just means there's a buying opportunity.

@NthObject89773 @pradeeepk Given $APP's sketchy history of using data, rather ironic that they would complain about a little turnaround of their tactics.

Corporates (spreads are tight, if this gets rly bad spreads should blow out). Long breadth, consumer exposure and small caps through stuff like $IWM, $RSP, $XSHQ, $RSPD. Short the narrow winners like $QQQ, $SMH, $AAPL, $CRWD, $ILMN, $NBIS. Also shorting long crowded bio longs
