🏆 Nvidia’s Hot Streak Continues

🗞️ February 27, 2025 | Crunching the numbers so you don’t have to!

Good morning, Cash Nut fam! ☕️ It’s Thursday, February 27, 2025, and we’re serving up a hot batch of financial goodness to kickstart your day. From Trump’s mineral grab in Ukraine 🇺🇦 to Alibaba’s AI-fueled stock surge 📈, we’ve got the scoops that’ll jolt you awake—no caffeine required (though we won’t stop you).

Buckle up, grab your mug, and let’s crack into today’s money moves!

🔥 Trump’s Ukraine Mineral Heist: A Deal in the Works?

💰 Kyiv’s treasure trove meets U.S. muscle

Donald Trump’s back at it, and this time he’s eyeing Ukraine’s mineral jackpot. Word on the street (and in a New York Times draft) is that the U.S. is close to snagging a slice of Ukraine’s untapped titanium, lithium, and uranium riches.

📜 The deal? Kyiv sends half its future mineral and energy profits to a U.S.-controlled fund in exchange for war funding against Russia. No $500 billion upfront shakedown like Trump initially wanted, but still a hefty haul.

🔐 Security promises? A vague “we’ve got your back” line is all Ukraine gets. Zelensky’s jetting to D.C. tomorrow to ink it with Trump—assuming the ink’s dry.

💬 X is split: Genius move or geopolitical overreach? You decide. 🤔

🏆 Nvidia’s Hot Streak Continues—With a Cool-Down Warning

🤖 AI chip king slays Q4 but tempers the hype

💸 Nvidia ($NVDA) just dropped a Q4 banger:
✅ $39.3B in revenue, up 78% YoY 📊
✅ $11B from the new Blackwell AI chip 🤯
✅ CEO Jensen Huang calls demand “amazing”

🚨 But there’s a catch—supply hiccups are crimping margins (down to 73.5% from 76.7%) and the Q1 forecast is cautious at $43B. Wall Street wanted more.

🔍 Big picture:
💰 Big Tech’s $320B AI spending spree keeps Nvidia on top, but Microsoft ($MSFT) hints at dialing back cloud investments.

📉 Nvidia’s still at $3T valuation—but even insiders are cashing out. Is the AI boom peaking?

🚀 Alibaba’s AI Ambitions Fuel 66% YTD Stock Surge

🛒 China’s e-commerce titan flexes its tech muscle

🔥 Alibaba ($BABA) is on an AI-fueled rocket ride:
✅ 65.9% YTD stock jump 🚀
✅ AI model Qwen 2.5-Max allegedly outpaces GPT-4o & Llama 🤖
✅ AI sales tripled for six straight quarters

🧐 But there’s a red flag:
At 13x forward earnings, Alibaba’s valuation is at a two-year high. HSBC warns it could be overheating.

⚠️ Tariff trouble? Trump-era trade policies might slam the brakes on this rally.

💬 X users are hyped: “Alibaba’s AI flex is unreal!” Can they cash in, or is this just hot air?

💬 “This season’s cursed!” 😤

👀 Should the rules change, or is this just part of the game? Williams’ status is TBD, and Big Blue Nation is on edge.

📱 Meta’s Instagram Horror Show

😱 From selfies to screams

Instagram turned into a nightmare yesterday when a glitch swapped avocado toast pics for graphic gore.

🤖 Meta scrambled to fix it, but users aren’t laughing.
💬 “I wanted filters, not this.” 😵

👀 Will this spook users away, or just be a blip?
