Interesting $FSLY finding from testing Meta Muse. Through a series of hundreds of tests, it appears that the $FSLY role with Meta Muse is greater than analysts have noted Over the past week, I created several test websites and ran 738 controlled tests to send traffic from Muse agents to my websites I set up analytics on my website, and I was able to track things like IP address, user agent, operating system, etc From the IP addresses, across the 738 tests, Muse sent traffic from: -Cloudflare: 37.0% -Fastly: 29.3% -Meta: 19.4% -AWS: 14.4% Cloudflare is not a surprise – as there has been a lot of analyst commentary about Muse using Cloudflare. Fastly, on the other hand, was a surprising result I ran many different situations and tasks to try to understand why, or when, Muse sends traffic through Fastly – or others. And when I looked deeper, Muse used Fastly for 100% of the tests when browser navigation was required (e.g., “go to my favorite restaurant’s website and find me the menu”). And when Muse was requested to navigate on a website (e.g., make me a doctor appointment), Fastly was used in 100% of tests Then in other situations, for example when an API is involved or a curl request required, Cloudflare was used in 100% of tests Lastly, when requesting Muse to search the web, Muse split traffic through Fastly, Cloudflare, Meta directly, and AWS

$HQ so as many know, QTUM ETF owns 6,565,887 HQ shares (by far the majority of float). The QTUM ETF reviews weightings semi-annually per ETF documentation. This would mean next weighting change is not until December Surprisingly, they published a file Friday night that included changed ETF weightings, against the ETF's rules. This would mean ~3M HQ shares would have needed to be sold by Friday. As a result, index arbs on Monday knocked the stock down 32% on 3X average volume. Selling was massive from open to close Through a few conversations, the index provider corrected the error. Announcement just came out from index provider - Weightings will NOT be changed, other than extremely minor (pro rata) to allow QNT to enter the index ~3M HQ shares will not be sold now by the index. All the index arbs who sold the stock off 32% yesterday will need to decide on what to do Or they can pay 101% overnight rate

I think what this guy @dylan522p does not understand is that receiving semianalysis institutional is just an information edge right now. Funds know they can short on publication and know they can cover lower- easy His negative pieces have been proven wrong more often than not, and when they’re right, the stories are often less material than stock moves on day of publication But he probably feels untouchable when he can take tens of billions off company values now, so he’s gonna typically act like a dick- but this type of edge rarely lasts long (and it won’t here) $AVGO $AMD $MU $NVDA
