Cusp of Collapse

Hours ago by Hamish McRae:

Microsoft's meltdown shows we must all be more resilient, says HAMISH MCRAE

"Nvidia and Microsoft meltdowns show us all that we must be more resilient in our everyday lives," says Hamish McRae (published earlier today in This is Money). Next week (or this coming week) will be a 'bloodbath'.

"A big week in the business world with an outage at Microsoft impacting Outlook access causing disruptions for thousands across the globe and the CEO of Nvidia steps down in controversial fashion," says another publisher (4 hours ago).

It's not over yet, as many questions remain regarding migrations away from Microsoft and businesses that borrowed money from the 'bank' of Jensen the cheater (many so-called 'hey hi' companies are in trouble). The bubble is rattling.

NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ: NVDA) is set to open in the red tomorrow.

The people who lobby to bring Jensen back to NVIDIA are the same cheaters who rely on him for loans. █
