Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSo the details are thin, Hank, but the stakes are big.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThese three names sit at the center of the AI trade, and that touches a lot of retirement accounts.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorWhat to watch next: whether chip names hold their gains at the open, and whether the VIX, now at fifteen point four two, wakes up.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA warning is just a gift with a scary bow, Hank. The AI build-out is multitrillion dollars. Seventeen billion is couch change.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorVera, that's the most confident thing I've heard since a guy at a county fair swore his pie was legally a vegetable.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorChip, I respect the pie guy. He understood branding.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNoted. I have no pie and no AI stocks. Just beans, and a growing sense that nobody read the fine print.
