TQQQ at 67%, HPE Up 35%, and Berkshire Just Bought $10B of Google — The Internet Is Losing Its Mind
HPE's AI-driven earnings explosion, TQQQ's leveraged moonshot, and Alphabet's Berkshire stamp of approval are dominating every corner of finance social media right now
Ticker Ratings
$HPE is the unlikely hero of earnings season — revenue came in at $10.7B vs. a $9.7B estimate, EPS of $0.79, and the stock ripped 35%+ in after-hours. Bloomberg's closing bell coverage couldn't stop talking about it, and honestly, neither could anyone else. AI server demand is doing the heavy lifting, and HPE is proof you don't need to be Nvidia to eat at the AI table.
Over on the retail trading side, IBD's spotlight on trader Vibha Jha has Reddit's options crowd absolutely feral. She built $TQQQ to 67% of her total portfolio using a disciplined 21 EMA entry system — entering after a 5-8% Nasdaq pullback, adding on follow-through days. YouTube comments are split between 'genius' and 'this is how you end up eating ramen,' which feels about right for 3x leverage.
Meanwhile, $GOOGL is out here doing a $80 billion equity raise for AI infrastructure and somehow made it look cool by getting Berkshire Hathaway to write a $10B check — on top of an existing $23B stake. CNBC's Fast Money compared it to Berkshire's early Apple bet. Warren Buffett didn't say a word and still became the most bullish Alphabet analyst on the street.
