Short NASDAQ and semiconductors on AI risks.
AI has become too powerful, triggering inevitable global regulatory crackdowns that will severely limit the accessible capabilities of frontier models like Claude Mythos. Simultaneously, hyperscaler capex is already slowing in real terms, masked by component inflation and token maxing, which artificially boosted earnings. AI models and inference chips are rapidly commoditizing, turning the current hardware shortage into a compute glut. These forces will cause the AI capex cycle to decelerate sharply. He is short the NASDAQ and semiconductor indices to capture this bearish turn.

Long oil on geopolitical supply risks.
The Iran-Israel conflict and the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz are actively constricting oil supply. Trump’s repeated statements that a deal is imminent signal desperation to Iran, hardening their negotiating stance and prompting them to demand tougher terms. Iran’s bold military actions suggest they feel emboldened. With oil inventories crashing, a prolonged stalemate will drive prices significantly higher. Most scenarios lead to higher oil prices, so he remains long oil.

Memory chip rally unsustainable, will fizzle
High-bandwidth memory chips (HBM) from Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix have surged due to a temporary shortage after years of underinvestment. However, the chips are not sophisticated, new capacity is coming online by end of 2026, and Chinese competitors can also produce them. The rally will fizzle out.

Inference chips commoditise, margins compress
Inference chips from Broadcom, AMD, and others are becoming commoditised. Unlike training chips, they are easy to design, and even OpenAI is making its own inference chips. This erodes differentiation and compresses profit margins.

Tesla robots/robo-taxis fail, stock overvalued
Tesla’s valuation depends on humanoid robots and robo-taxis, but those projects are going nowhere. The Chinese are making better humanoid robots, and there are scary stories from robotaxi trial cities. The stock sold off on good revenue, signalling investor disappointment with the long-term growth story.

Stocks down, oil up, Fed frozen is bullish for gold.
The optimal environment for gold is when the stock market is falling due to war fears, oil prices are rising, and the Federal Reserve is politically constrained from raising rates. This combination creates a very bullish setup for gold.

Woo states, "I'm long Nifty50. I love the India story." He notes that the Indian stock market was the "worst performing in 2025" because it lost out on the AI capital rotation. Because India didn't participate in the AI bubble, it won't crash with it. It is a counter-cyclical play with strong fundamentals ("fastest growing economy") and a recent trade deal with the US. It serves as the perfect hedge against a US tech collapse. Long India via broad ETFs. Global liquidity drying up affecting all Emerging Markets simultaneously.
