Nasdaq 100 jumped to 30,223.9 (+0.84%), outperforming as AI-leveraged names led on the ceasefire bid plus fresh Anthropic $1T valuation chatter. Micron Q1 earnings still echoing.

The AI capex narrative is still doing the heavy lifting — Anthropic IPO and Samsung HBM4E shipping headlines reinforce the spend cycle. Peter Schiff's bubble warning is the only counter, and it hasn't bit yet.

30,500 is the next round-number magnet. PCE Friday plus any Nvidia commentary into the next earnings window. Loss of 29,800 would be the first real warning shot.

Nvidia gained 0.78% to $214.25 in a mixed AI-name session. Yahoo Finance ran a 'bubble' segment on the AI trade; Micron's 850% YTD run highlighted memory leverage, not chip-design weakness.

NVDA is the AI capex bet's purest expression — even bubble worries don't dent it until hyperscaler capex forecasts soften. Samsung shipping HBM4E samples reinforces the demand stack.

$220 is the resistance to break for a clean leg higher. PCE Friday + any data-center capex commentary from cloud-provider guides. Support $208; loss opens $200.
