The practice of keeping data in separate databases to prevent it from being linked and used to profile an individual is often referred to as data segmentation or data silos. In the context of privacy protection, it may also be described as data anonymization through separation or data isolation. These methods aim to limit the ability to correlate information across datasets, thereby reducing the risk of profiling or identifying a person of interest. The intent of DOGE was clear, send in a bunch of hackers, grab the data and and join them, destroying the original intent of privacy protection and not being able to link all information to profile a person

$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$  Tesla has resumed its ascent from a low of $214 post tariffs announcement, hitting a high of $300 before retracing. It's hardly out of the woods. Cathie Wood has a potential price of $2,600, I think it's more likely to be range bound from $260-$300. Plummeting sales in key markets, delays in rolling out the real Cybercab, not robotaxis which are meant for regulatory trials, new Tesla Model 2 below $20,000, over optimism for Optimus, the list goes on. The only change is Elon putting DOGE behind him and spending more time to fix Tesla's deeper issues. Auto tariffs are still an ongoing mess even though Tesla is less affected.

This is what  Elon Musk remarked about BYD with a cynical laugh in 2011. In a 2011 Bloomberg interview, Elon Musk laughed off BYD as a Tesla competitor, saying, “Have you seen their car?” and calling their product unattractive with weak technology. He dismissed their market viability, suggesting they were struggling in China China dominates in EVs, robotics manufacturing, 7nm chips are good enough for 90% of all applications. Jensen has expressly stated that 50% of AI researchers are CHINESE, sir.

$NIO Inc.(NIO)$  Bear Case for Potential Investors in NIO: No Share Price Growth Through 2027 For potential investors considering NIO, a Chinese electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer, the following bear case highlights significant risks that could result in no share price growth through 2027. NIO’s substantial debt, the potential obsolescence of its battery-swapping technology due to advancements in supercharging, the high cost and low profitability of its swapping stations, and its limited infrastructure expansion beyond China pose formidable challenges. These factors, combined with competitive and macroeconomic pressures, suggest that NIO’s stock price—currently trading at approximately $7-$8 as of early 2025—may stagn

Tim's shenanigans, great choice of words, from made in USA to designed in California, Irish tax dodges, App Store tax, the absurd 30% rent seeking commission because he could, to the infamous Apple tax, huge makeups for commodity RAM and storage on billions of sheepish consumers wowed by Apple’s advertising, Google's $20 billion search engine payments and soon potential $900 million tariff bill handed to him by Trump. Apple signifies everything that is wrong with Big Tech and how the US debt keeps climbing despite American dominance in tech globally.

$Apple(AAPL)$ Did Warren Buffet Smell a Rat in Apple's Business Model When He Sold Apple Shares? To Apple Investors: Did Warren Buffett Smell a Rat in Apple’s Business Model When He Sold Apple Shares? Dear Apple Investors, A cascade of legal and economic challenges threatens Apple’s profitability, casting a shadow over the value of your shares. A federal court ruling by US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers found that Apple Inc. willfully violated a 2021 court order mandating third-party payment options in its App Store and must now cease charging commissions on purchases outside its software marketplace. This deliberate defiance, labeled a “gross miscalculation” in Judge Rogers’ 80-page ruling, has triggered a re

$Apple(AAPL)$  Apple is arguably the only Nasdaq company to be roiled by Trump's tariffs. Trump’s reciprocal tariff gambit has put paid to Apple's success in China more than any other. It's cozy reliance on China's manufacturing prowess, which it knows is unmatched by any other.  Apple's plan to move manufacturing back to US in 2017 with Foxconn's $10 billion plant in Wisconsin was a complete failure.  Foxconn's subsequent move to India signified the start of Apple's shift from it's China centric supply chain. Indeed, Apple aims to shift assembly of all U.S.-bound iPhones (approximately 60 million units annually) to India by the end of 2026, driven by U.S. tariffs of up to 145% on C

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$  How Trump Single-Handedly Awoke a Sleeping Dragon When Donald Trump took office in 2017, America held the world’s AI crown. Giants like NVIDIA, Google, and Meta, fueled by U.S.-made chips and software, dominated the global tech scene, with China heavily reliant on American technology. But Trump’s aggressive move to choke China’s tech ambitions—starting with crippling sanctions on Huawei in 2019—lit a fuse that woke a sleeping dragon. By trying to keep China down, Trump inadvertently unleashed its drive for tech independence, undermining U.S. dominance and leaving allies caught in the crossfire. Trump’s 2019 sanctions banned Huawei from U.S. chips and software, aiming to starve China’s tech growth and keep it dependent on Ameri

America was well on the way to controlling AI technologies globally, from the get go, from IBM to Google and Meta powered by Nvidia chips more specifically, even AMD struggled to match. Now that America has decided to limit and stop the use of it's home grown technologies only to itself and "allies", the DeepSeek Sputnik moment heralded the arrival of China, thanks to Biden's AI Diffusion Rule and limitation on H100 and Blackwell GPUs to China. Thos coupled with the severe backlog and cooling challenges, notwithstanding high power requirements has forced China to fast forward it's own development through Huawei and SMIC.

$IBM VERTICAL 250523 CALL 240.0/CALL 245.0$ Tariff deal of the day IBM reported quarterly earnings that met expectations yet was punished on loss of a small contract due to DOGE cuts and weaker than expected forecast due to tariffs. Great time to add IBM to your portfolio as it bottomed at low of $224, it's now rebounding. This is a bullish call spread which is cheap due to low IV. @TigerStars @Daily_Discussion @Tiger_Earnings @TigerWire
