I thought that times were changing, see I invoked some were invoked on me, or something of that nature. Two days ago I started a new script, I call it “Just A Game” which gives me the letters J.A.G. (no relation) but the setting was created to scare the jibbers out of the NSA, GCHQ and related organisations. Set to that I created a few kinks to get the setting of drama going and it is a film script, not some autography to scare three to four people. They get enough real scares for that, as such I wouldn’t be able to hold a candle to the real nightmares.

Then I got introduced to (what I am fathoming to be grifters in media) as I got exposed to ‘Oracle stock slips after insider sale filing as openai-linked spending stays in focus’ where we see “Oracle shares fell 0.4% to $197.27 in early trading on Monday after a company officer disclosed a planned share sale, with investors still wary about the cost of the software maker’s push to expand AI-related cloud capacity.” It is important to say that no lies were told, but as I see it, when we see “That scrutiny has been sharpest around Oracle’s ties to privately held OpenAI, where investors lack the same visibility into funding and cash burn that they get with public companies, analysts and traders said. (Source: Benzinga) A Form 144 filing accepted on Monday morning showed Oracle officer Mark Hura proposed selling up to 15,000 shares, with an aggregate market value of about $2.95 million, through Fidelity Brokerage Services. Form 144 is the SEC notice used when company “affiliates” — insiders and certain large holders — plan to sell shares under Rule 144, which sets conditions for selling restricted or control stock into the public market.” It feels like someone is trying to undermine the power of Oracle. Then we get ‘Oracle Shares Plunge Amid Mounting Concerns Over AI Strategy’ (source: Ad Hoc News, Germany) where we are given “Oracle Corporation is facing one of its most severe market downturns in decades. Since reaching a peak in September, the technology giant’s stock has plummeted by more than 40%, putting it on track for its worst quarterly performance since 2001. This dramatic sell-off is fueled by investor apprehension over soaring capital expenditures and a wave of insider selling, raising fundamental questions about the sustainability of management’s aggressive artificial intelligence investment plan. A primary catalyst behind the market’s negative reaction is the explosive growth in Oracle’s capital investments. The company’s capital expenditures tripled year-over-year in its second fiscal quarter, reaching $12 billion. In response to this surge, management significantly raised its annual forecast for such spending to a staggering $50 billion.” There is no lie, but in September, stock was $328 and it is lower now, but that is the setting of a market in motion, over the last day it was switching between $194 and $195, as such there is no real dip in intent, and the $328 was true, but the day before it was $241, but the article doesn’t spell that out, does it? And two days after the spike it had ‘dwindled’ to $292, and after the quarter that followed the stock would reset itself to $198, as such it seems like ‘doom speak’ and I have a problem with that, Oracle has proven itself time and time again and when true (say: real) AI arrives, it will only function under the data armour that Oracle provides, most others are wannabe’s trying to do what Oracle and Snowflake successfully do. As such we are in a stage of uncertainty, the media is used to fuel digital dollars, fueling influencers and wannabe prophets of doom times. Even as I recognise them, they gave me an idea of an old setting. You see we have been through this before in the age of the bards. They gave us the doom speak, the white knight and the victory, but that setting is now applied to economic fortune telling, so the more things change, the more they stay the same.

And in all that ruckus, I am trying to keep my brain afloat (on ice water) and unburdened by noise of economic influencers. I try to avoid most economic news, but when the attack on Oracle started, I just had to step in. There were more articles, but these two set the marker quite nicely. And it is important, because the media no longer does what it was designed to do, it now prevents itself from drowning whilst chasing digital dollars. Lets hope that the age of uncertainty fades quickly, America has its own set of losers trying to bank in on that and with a non-functioning media, we need all the help we can get. Have a great day today.
