PHYSIX OBSERVATION
The record market cap is more a reflection of capital's continued bet on the AI compute narrative than of any new fundamental change that day. For the industry, Nvidia is now so large that it can sway Nasdaq sentiment, and that concentration is itself a risk signal; for users, compute costs will be hard to bring down in the short term, and the pressure for AI applications to raise prices remains.
