This is a view of the S&P 500 from space. It helps to remember that this is the view that matters.

This is the price of RAM similar to what is in your personal devices (example is 32 GB of DDR5).
It debuted at ~$14/GB but declined steadily 2022–2024 as Intel and AMD drove adoption, bottoming near $3/GB. It is now back to ~$11.50/GB.
Fed balance sheet update: $6.74T, basically flat (+1.1% in a year).
TL;DR: the Fed stopped draining cash from markets, but it's not flooding them either.

@Kalshi The buybacks are funded from the Treasury General Account (existing cash), not newly created money.
Treasury buys back old illiquid notes and issues new debt to fund it. Debt is unchanged. It's market plumbing.

@GaryMarcus I'm using DeepSeek v4 Pro in my personal life. It's not Claude Opus 4.8 but good enough for most things and the price difference is substantial.
This trend will continue as ROI starts to matter again.
@josef21m@zerohedge I still use Opus 4.8 for bigger features and image support, but I've been using Deepseek v4 Pro more and more in the last week.
I do wish Anthropic had better pricing. I wouldn't be shopping around if they did.
