🕯 Loracle Bets Against AI

Loracle has opened $75M in shorts from a $61M account, betting heavily against the Robinhood ecosystem and memory-chip makers. Positions include 22M Cashcat worth $6M, 9.13M PONS worth $5M, plus SNDK at $24M, NVDA at $19M, and Micron at $10M. Liquidation levels are $0.68 for Cashcat and $1.59 for PONS.

Previously, Loracle cited a scenario from Derivative Monke. A new Claude model, successor to Fable, will arrive in late September and disappoint, convincing markets that AI has hit a wall. Open-source models will catch up before reaching a similar limit by late October.

Anthropic will reportedly launch an IPO in late October at a $2T valuation, triggering an isolated AI industry crash as private investors create excess supply and retail investors recognize the growth story as marketing hype. A Fed rate hike around the same time would worsen the market cascade.
