💾 The Memory Crisis Nobody Is Pricing In (Yet)
When Elon Musk talks about building his own chip fab and Tim Cook warns about shrinking margins, it is not drama. It is a signal.

In a world where capital is abundant but components are scarce, the real winners will not be the best storytellers. They will be the best hoarders.
And most portfolios are not positioned for that reality.
