Morning X digest — Monday, Nov 9, 2026

Digest summary

This morning’s X is mixed.
The Jensen Huang story weighs on NVDA, but the broad market is shrugging it off.
There were 86 new posts from 17 accounts, and every view below is the author’s, not verified.
Futures and NVDA:
- @KobeissiLetter says Nasdaq 100 futures fell over 1% at Sunday’s 6 PM open and turned green within about 7 minutes.
- He later had NVDA down more than 5% premarket, about $225B in market cap.
- @Mr_Derivatives posted QQQ up 1% overnight.
Nvidia’s board:
- @GavinSBaker relays the board saying it found “no reason to believe” national security or Nvidia secrets were compromised, with independent directors now running an investigation.
- Bernstein, via @pequityresearch, doesn’t expect demand to change materially.
Bear side:
- @jukan05 sees a real chance Jensen steps down or gets distracted.
- @zephyr_z9 expects pressure to bring back the Biden-era AI diffusion rule and puts about 20% of demand in China.
- An OEM expert call relayed by @pequityresearch says Vera Rubin output slipped to Q1 2027.
- That’s one expert’s claim, and it goes straight to the schedule question for the Nov 17 earnings.
- @Mr_Derivatives is watching a $177.69 gap fill (his level).
Taiwan and semis:
- @aleabitoreddit says TAIEX rose 4.94%, its second-biggest daily gain, with AI names near limit-up.
- @TheLongInvest says semis are still above their 200-week MA but have “a bit to go” lower.
Buildout:
- @KobeissiLetter says US data center construction spending hit a record $96.5B annualized in September, up 90% from a year earlier.
- @jukan05 relays a Nikkei report that Musk’s Terafab targets 1M wafers a month from 2032, 700K of them for memory.
- He also notes Nanya and Winbond want EUV scanners, which he reads as good for ASML.
Other:
- @ren_stocks is bullish on NBIS’s sovereign deals (“first Korea, now the UK”).
- Trump said he threatened an unnamed AI-company leader with jail.
- @kimmonismus guesses it’s Anthropic’s CEO, and @pequityresearch doubts the story.
- @KobeissiLetter reports M2 money supply up 5.7% from a year earlier, to a record.
In the stock tally, NVDA had about 24 mentions from 13 accounts and scored net −0.08, a near-even split with bears slightly ahead.
TSM, ASML, AMD and NBIS each got one bullish mention.
MU was neutral, and SMH got one bearish technical read.
AMZN, MSFT, DDOG, CRWD, BE, CRDO and INTC weren’t mentioned.
