AMD outperformed NVIDIA by 8.4 percentage points over three months (24.83% gain vs. 16.47%), yet ARK Invest sold $111 million of AMD and bought $81 million of NVDA in early October, signaling a rotation from the hardware catch-up trade into the ecosystem incumbent.
AI Infrastructure Search Interest Craters From July Peaks
Semiconductor search interest fell 91% from a July peak of 74 to 7, data center interest dropped 68% from 100 to 32, and NVIDIA stock searches plunged 83% from 81 to 14 over the past three months as the AI infrastructure hype cycle cooled.
OpenClaw: A Phantom Peak in July, Not an October Breakout
OpenClaw peaked at 100 in mid-July, then collapsed 79% to 21 by October, while Chalkie AI and Seedance 2.0 never sustained interest above 5 points. The 'Breakout' label in rising queries compares a July high to a recent low, masking a months-long decline.
