๐Ÿซง Half of the US is in Recession ๐Ÿšจ


October 12, 2025 | Read Online

๐Ÿ‘‹ Hey there, Tech Fizz here.

A recent analysis of roughly 50 different products found that buyers save just 0.6% during Amazonโ€™s Prime Big Deal Days.

Yikes.

Makes you wonder if other companies are also promoting misleading sale prices...

What we've got in this edition:

  • ๐Ÿšจ Market News Highlights.
  • ๐Ÿ’ฌ AI Prompts. Try out 3 new prompts to enhance your investing strategy.
  • ๐Ÿฅท Insider selling/buying activity. Early signals for Dell Technologies, CoreWeave, and Cullinan Therapeutics.

MARKET RADAR

๐Ÿค– State of AI report. Some key takeaways are that OpenAI has only a narrow lead over competitors, AI models have gotten better at self-correcting, and 44% of U.S. businesses now pay for AI tools (up from 5% in 2023).

๐Ÿ“ˆ The 8 Best AI stocks to buy now, according to Morningstar. All of them have strong business models and are currently undervalued.

๐Ÿšจ Nearly half of US states are in a recession. Why isn't the mainstream media covering this?

๐Ÿ’ผ AI puts millions of US jobs at risk. A Senate Democratsโ€™ report warned that AI and automation could eliminate ~100M American jobs within the next decade.

๐ŸŽฒ CEO of Polymarket becomes world's youngest self-made billionaire after $2 Billion investment from NYSE Owner. Shayne Coplan is only 27 years old so good for him. But the rebranding of gambling as "predicting" outcomes is a bit worrisome.

EARNINGS

Companies Reporting Earnings Week of October 12th, 2025:

AI PROMPTS

1. ๐Ÿ” "Narrative Detection" Prompt

Purpose: Filter out the signal from the noise.

"What narrative is currently being pushed about [STOCK or SECTOR] in the media and on social platforms? Contrast this with institutional behavior and fundamentals. Is there a disconnect? Who stands to benefit from the current narrative?"

2. ๐Ÿ—‚๏ธ โ€œIf-Then Portfolio Playbookโ€ Prompt

Purpose: Build conditional logic into your investing strategy.

"Given the following macro scenario โ€” [e.g., falling interest rates + weak job growth + low oil prices] โ€” which sectors and asset classes historically perform best? What portfolio adjustments should an investor consider under this scenario?"

3. โš–๏ธ โ€œAsymmetric Investment Filterโ€ Prompt

Purpose: Find investments with high upside, limited downside.

"Identify asymmetric opportunities in the market today โ€” setups where the upside potential significantly outweighs the downside risk. Prioritize based on smart money positioning, strong fundamentals, or structural tailwinds."

SMART MONEY TRACKER

๐Ÿฅ‡ Insider sell trades of Dell Technologies:

  • Insider: Michael S. Dell (CEO)
  • # of shares sold: 6,253,968
  • $ Amount: $1,000,053,261
  • Date: Oct 9, 2025
  • SEC Forms: [1]
  • Insider: SLTA V (GP), LLC (Director)
  • # of shares sold: 499,999
  • $ Amount: $80,741,800
  • Date: Oct 8, 2025
  • SEC Forms: [1]

The sheer amount of money that was pocketed by Dell CEO, Michael Dell, is truly astonishing.

What's interesting is that a business entity, with position of Director, also sold a large amount of shares the day before.

Was this a classic case of taking profits or is the company about to hit financial headwinds?

Only time will tell.

๐Ÿฅˆ Insider sell trades of CoreWeave:

  • Insider: Magnetar Financial LLC (10% Owner)
  • Cumulative # of shares sold: 2,359,599
  • Cumulative $ Amount: $334,873,156

In a sea of red (insider selling activity), this buying activity stood out to us.

This looks like a high-conviction trade without any publicly available catalysts.

Expect some positive news to come out soon.
