Stock market is really, really interesting

  I mean for me it is, but not in an intellectual sense. Don't get me wrong, there are some good articles on HN about HFT and the technicality of it, but this is just, I don't know. Why Softbank? Didn't other big investment banks/funds sold out of NVidia at some point? Cathy Wood maybe, at some point? Why wasn't that on HN? Stock news is barely on HN. Oh, wait, I guess I see it now. It is on HN way more frequently when it involves Big Tech. And NVidia is increasingly seen as part of that. It used to be FAANG but now it's the Magnificent 7. The bias shifted. That'd make sense.

    After reddit doing IPO and getting blasted by AI content, seems a lot of reddit-only people have come over to HN. Quality of technical content and discussions has visibly gone down since. More emotional/low-value/political replies everywhere. Slowly turning into /r/programmerhumor...
