Why Are the Most Believers in AGI Buying NVIDIA Put Options?

The article analyzes the significant, market-moving 13F filing for Q1 2026 by Situational Awareness LP (SALP), a fund managed by former OpenAI researcher Leopold Aschenbrenner. While Aschenbrenner is a prominent believer in the accelerated arrival of AGI and has built the fund as a focused bet on AI infrastructure, the filing revealed large new put option positions (totaling billions in notional value) on key AI/semiconductor names like Nvidia, SMH ETF, Broadcom, and AMD. The article argues this is not a bearish turn on AI but a sophisticated hedging strategy. Given the macro backdrop in late March (rising oil prices, inflation concerns, higher-for-longer interest rates), the fund is managing volatility in its high-beta, high-valuation portfolio of AI infrastructure plays (like Bloom Energy, CoreWeave, Core Scientific). The puts act as "insurance" against a potential systemic pullback in the AI trade. Simultaneously, SALP maintained or added to core long positions in companies tied to power, data centers, compute, and storage—the "bottlenecks" expected to capture AI capital spending. It trimmed or exited some Q1 winners (e.g., Lumentum) and reduced leverage (e.g., selling CoreWeave calls), suggesting a rotation from crowded, high-momentum trades towards assets with clearer long-term fundamental pathways. The key takeaway is an evolution in the AI investment theme: from a broad, linear rally to a more discerning, "show-me-the-money" phase. The focus shifts from simply buying the AI narrative to identifying companies that can convert capex into tangible revenue, while actively managing portfolio risk in a volatile macro environment. The strategy reflects a move from unilateral bullishness to "offense with defense."

Nvidia's Wednesday 'Big Test': The Battle That Will Determine the Fate of the AI Bull Market is Here!

NVIDIA Faces Key AI Bull Market Test with Wednesday Earnings Report NVIDIA is set to release its quarterly earnings after the market close on Wednesday, May 20th (US Eastern Time). This report is seen as a critical stress test for the current AI-driven bull market cycle. The semiconductor sector is technically severely overbought, with extremely bullish options positioning. The rare signal of stock prices and implied volatility rising simultaneously indicates significantly amplified two-way risk around this earnings event. The core tension identified by analysts is strong fundamental demand for AI versus mounting technical pressures. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (SOX) is trading approximately 60% above its 200-day moving average, a deviation not seen since the peak of the dot-com bubble in 1999/2000. While NVIDIA's current quarter revenue is expected to beat estimates by a substantial margin, market focus is intensely on the guidance for the next quarter. Historically, NVIDIA's stock has frequently declined on the day following its last five earnings reports. The options market presents contradictory signals: extreme bullish call skew persists, yet there is notable activity in tail-risk hedging via put options on broader indices and semiconductor ETFs. This suggests traders are chasing gains while simultaneously preparing for potential sharp volatility. A broader market concern is narrowing breadth. Despite the S&P 500's YTD gain, only about half of its constituents are positive, with leadership heavily concentrated in a few mega-cap AI and semiconductor names like NVIDIA. Analysts question whether this reflects market health or a "funding source" effect, where money flows out of lagging sectors into the AI trade. The earnings outcome and, crucially, the forward guidance will test the market's conviction in the AI compute super-cycle thesis. Given NVIDIA's high correlation with the semiconductor and broader tech sector, its results are poised to trigger widespread market moves in either direction.

Chat with the Godfather of Crypto: $60k Bitcoin is Definitely Not the Bottom, the Real 'Capitulation Moment' is in October

**Summary: Interview with "Crypto Godfather" Michael Terpin on Bitcoin Outlook** Michael Terpin, founder of Transform Ventures and author of "Bitcoin Supercycle," discusses his market views in a podcast. He argues that Bitcoin's price around $60K is likely not the cycle bottom, with odds favoring a further decline to the $48K–$57K range, potentially bottoming in October. Key points include: * **Saylor & STRC:** He clarifies Michael Saylor's recent statement about potentially selling Bitcoin to pay dividends is driven by STRC's retail/ hybrid structure requiring an "escape valve," not a strategic shift. Saylor's large-scale OTC purchases create a floor for Bitcoin's price. * **October Bottom Thesis:** Terpin cites historical patterns (e.g., ~1-year bear markets, Coin Days Destroyed indicator, 23/35-month cycles) pointing to an October bottom. Current selling pressure is largely from leveraged retail liquidations, not whales. * **Cycle Dynamics:** He notes diminishing returns per cycle (e.g., 3000x, 100x, 30x, ~8x) and converging drawdowns. The long-term $1M Bitcoin target by 2033 remains. * **Risks & Narratives:** The real near-term "FTX moment" risk is an advanced AI model attacking a major Ethereum smart contract (e.g., Lido), not quantum computing breaking Bitcoin soon. AI tokens are expected to outperform Bitcoin in the next three years, with profits potentially flowing back into BTC. * **Market Mechanics:** He comments on reported systematic selling by firms like Jane Street and how Wall Street tactics (OTC buying, public market shorting) now influence Bitcoin. * **Supercycle & Design:** Terpin believes Satoshi intentionally aligned Bitcoin's 4-year halving cycle with US election years, influencing global liquidity cycles. He discusses Bitcoin's role in a potential new commodity supercycle driven by currency debasement.

A Quick Look at the Latest Moves of the 24-Year-Old 'AI Stock God': Sixty Percent of the Portfolio Hedging Against Semiconductor Downturn

24-year-old AI investing prodigy Leopold Aschenbrenner's fund, Situational Awareness LP, has disclosed its Q1 2026 13F holdings. The fund's total portfolio nominal value surged 148% to $13.7 billion, driven by both investment gains and significant new capital inflows. The most striking move was the establishment of massive short-term hedges against potential volatility in the AI semiconductor sector. Over 60% of the fund's nominal exposure is now in put options (bets on declines) targeting major AI hardware stocks like NVIDIA (NVDA), VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH), Broadcom (AVGO), and AMD. Notably, the fund also holds call options (bets on rises) on some names like Micron (MU) and TSMC, indicating it expects extreme price swings in these stocks. Alongside these hedges, the fund remains a long-term bull on AI infrastructure. It significantly increased its equity stakes in companies like GPU cloud provider CoreWeave (CRWV) and added to positions in power/energy infrastructure firms like Bloom Energy (BE), albeit after taking substantial profits on the latter. The fund also exited positions in optical communication hardware (LITE, COHR) and reduced leverage by clearing out large call option positions on Intel and CoreWeave. In essence, the portfolio reflects a dual strategy: cautious on near-term semiconductor valuations and potential over-extension, while maintaining a conviction that the true long-term bottlenecks and value will be in the underlying infrastructure powering the AI revolution—such as energy, data centers, and compute availability.
