Ep. 1 — Oil Rips, Tesla Cracks, CPI Looms

Oil spikes 11%, Tesla falls 5.5%, gold dumps — all on a "flat" SPY day. Alex, Tom, and Ray unpack the split-screen market: AI and chips hold firm while energy and growth names diverge, with CPI and FOMC minutes looming.

Today's stories:

• Oil +11%: why chips held and gold sold off — real yield signal
• Tesla delivery miss, margins, and the $350 level everyone's watching
• REITs/Utilities bid on higher-for-longer; 10Y at 4.35% as floor vs ceiling
• Nerd Corner: AMD MI300X buzz, sovereign AI demand, and Nvidia still king

The Calls:

• Tom: If AMD adds to last week's gains and NVDA pushes premarket, the AI bid is real
• Ray: Core CPI at 0.4% m/m = summer cut narrative dead
• Alex: 10Y walking toward 4.50% after FOMC minutes tests "AI is immune to rates"
