And then, Stephen Hemsley reappeared. Like a slightly exasperated parent returning to clean up a mess. He was the architect of their whole vertical integration thing, apparently. Which sounds…complicated. But the idea is, they own everything – the insurance, the care delivery, even the pharmacies. It’s supposed to be a moat. A very expensive, heavily guarded moat.
Nvidia, a name now uttered with the reverence once reserved for titans of industry, has ascended to a market capitalization that would make Croesus blush. Its dominion stems, naturally, from the graphic processing units—those silicon sprites that conjure the illusions of artificial intelligence. To call them merely ‘powerful’ would be akin to describing a Fabergé egg as ‘shiny.’ They are the engines of this new conjuration, and Nvidia, its benevolent, if implacable, sorcerer.
U.S. lawmakers, armed with the optimism of a man who’s just discovered a new religion, shared social media posts that hinted at negotiations nearing consensus-though one might argue they’ve been “near” since the invention of the wheel. The sentiment was that bipartisan legislation to support the digital asset industry is “within reach,” a phrase that has haunted Washington since the days of the Whiskey Rebellion. 🕵️♂️
My Aunt Mildred, who believes stock tips are gleaned from the arrangement of tea leaves, was particularly insistent. “A strong January,” she declared over a disturbingly floral Earl Grey, “means a prosperous year!” I tried to explain the concept of market volatility, but she just waved a biscuit and said something about “following the energy.” It’s exhausting, being the responsible one. But, of course, I secretly checked the numbers after she left. Just in case.
Value Holdings scooped up 98,289 shares in the last quarter. That brings their stake to 2.5% of their portfolio. Which is a polite way of saying they’re committed. Like, “we’ve seen this movie before, and we’re bringing snacks” committed. The value of the position increased by $6.33 million, which is good news. Unless you’re counting in Monopoly money.
This little escapade shows some serious conviction, but let’s be real-it’s not like the rest of the market is throwing a party over it. 🎉 Large players are often just repositioning to make sure they can dance around any potential risks.
A filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission – a document, alas, not penned in verse – doth reveal that Capital Asset Advisory Services has augmented its holdings in VTC by the aforementioned shares. The value of this addition, calculated by the cold logic of quarterly averages, amounts to $6.19 million. Furthermore, the fund’s overall value has increased by $5.76 million, a figure encompassing both the company’s diligent acquisitions and the fickle whims of the market itself.
The whispers speak of another solid year for these AI-driven enterprises in 2026. Deutsche Bank, ever the pragmatist, points to continued infrastructure investments. But let us not mistake motion for progress. The very proliferation of these so-called ‘AI stocks’ has created a scarcity of true value. A desperate hunt for substance amidst the vaporware. The question, then, is not whether AI will grow, but where, amidst this chaos, can a rational investor find… purchase?
The SEC filing, released with all the fanfare one might expect from a government document, reveals the acquisition of 49,139 shares. A mere trifle, one might say, in the grand scheme of things. Yet, it represents 1.6% of the fund’s reportable assets, a signal, however faint, that someone of consequence is paying attention. It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single, well-placed bet can speak volumes about the prevailing winds of fortune.
‘Tis said that on Wednesday last, BFI Infinity procured no less than 132,421 shares of this Asian instrument. A trifling sum, you say? Hardly! When tallied with their existing holdings, this ETF now constitutes a full 17.21% of their reported assets. One might suspect a mere passing fancy, a momentary indulgence. But observe – at quarter’s end, the value of their Asian affections had swelled by $12.64 million, a testament to both their initial investment and the ETF’s own flourishing.
