September 8th should have been a great day for cash flow stocks. Exploding oil tankers, rising bond rates, macro fear. Instead chip analyst upgrades sparked a rotation into everything I avoid.

ADBE narrative selloff may create re-entry opportunity
Author says the 'SaaSpocalypse' narrative that companies will vibe-code their own versions of Adobe is destroying software names despite fine numbers, and he trimmed ADBE at 30% gains over the last month. He implies these narrative-driven selloffs create buying opportunities ('second Christmas') if the pattern continues.

FDS sold on narrative; weakness may be opportunity
Author sold FDS at close to 35% gain a couple weeks ago, framing it as part of the same narrative-driven selloff of cash-flow names (ChatGPT makes FDS unnecessary). He suggests continued weakness would be a buying opportunity ('second Christmas').

NVDA compute leasing hints at AI demand doubts
Author questions why NVDA, if chip demand and backlog are so strong, is investing in AI startups and compute leasing rather than focusing resources on producing more chips. He reads the diversification into compute leasing as a signal that NVDA may be hedging its own chip dominance, hinting at uncertainty about the final level of AI demand, and warns every CapEx cycle ends.
