If they're a hedge fund they're probably trying to tank the US AI stocks so they can buy the dip and then in a few days/weeks it is back to business as usual.

I don't personally buy their story, and after having used Deepseek it kind of sucks and hallucinates a lot if I'm being objectively honest.

I mean a few million for this is okay - that's cool.. but it is useless. I can understand billions of dollars into something that actually works >50% of the time.

If you’re expecting to pop a bubble I think you’d buy options ahead of time to take advantage, instead of waiting for a recovery that may never come.

Well, nvidia stocks already up 10%

I know it is too early, but I'd not be surprised if this was CCP intervention using a hedge fund to try and tank US AI stocks for a specific reason.

I mean again, just being objectively honest, Deepseek kind of sucks and is maybe on par with early-2023 era models.
