Grade = how their written analysis reads (A best). Trader score = how their last-20 timestamped calls performed vs SPY. · Analyst brief as of 2026-06-22.

Their picks, scored

Across their last 20 scored bets: 30% hit rate, -0.97% mean alpha, trader score -1.85. Their last-14d mentions, direction-adjusted, have moved -0.7% since posting (mean over 30 mentions with price data).

AI infrastructure bottlenecks dominate with Microsoft favored over Google

This author is focused on the AI capex and power buildout, with recurring work on data-center grid constraints, gas turbines, interconnection reform, and compute economics. The most ticker-specific read favors MSFT/OpenAI execution and distribution while repeatedly criticizing GOOGL/Gemini product quality, talent loss, and PR around infrastructure. There are no explicit directional trades or position disclosures in the payload, but the late-week tone keeps AI infrastructure central while adding more caution on capex froth and underwriting specificity.

Direction this week

The author stayed concentrated on AI infrastructure, especially power, interconnection, compute utilization, and data-center economics. Ticker-specific conviction is most visible in MSFT/OpenAI positives versus repeated GOOGL/Gemini skepticism, though the same GOOGL proxy also appears in bullish Anthropic product commentary. There are no explicit adds, trims, exits, or position disclosures; late-week posts add more caution around AI infrastructure froth, capex feasibility, and underwriting discipline rather than a clean flip.

Grade is our human read-worthiness rating; trader score is a rolling 20-bet hit-rate/alpha composite — different things, often disagreeing. “Since then” is direction-unaware in the table; the summary line above adjusts for which way they leaned.
