      What the desk will say before they say it

      Six chairs cover the whole TV desk, from the 6am sound-effects button to the 5pm options guy. Every morning the desk writes a digest with the noise stripped, then predicts what each chair will say. Grade them; the desk keeps score.

      Once the backend is live, every digest ends with three graded forecasts: next-day direction, a 5-day level, a 5-day range.

          What is moving AMD, by share of the move

          Each slice is the share of AMD's recent daily variance that one economic force explains. China is always its own weight, never folded into company-specific; the well below splits it into Beijing and the rest of China.

            One desk, two tickers

            AMDdict and NVIDIAddict run the same Synapse on equal terms: the same pair statistics, both desks' weights side by side, one feed each desk publishes into, and what each would tell a holder of the other. Neither app owns it.

              AMD bought back $221M in six months and $0 in Q2. It is building inventory ($8.5B) for the Helios ramp instead. Nothing here is being bought up by buybacks; it is priced on the next guide and the share count.

                  Why this game

                  President/Bullshit is a game about calling a lie with incomplete information. On the desk the lie is usually a true number with a false conclusion attached. Practice separating the two.

                  Each hand prices your call under three outcomes with the probabilities shown, before and after IV changes. Fold locks today's value. Call takes the distribution. Raise converts to a spread or rolls. The best action is the highest expected value. You score when you pick it.
