Not exactly. Yes, NVDA is responsible for the majority of gains
YTD, but there is an ingenious rotation strategy in play that keeps
the index squeeze in play while they give high flyers a break.
I don't know if they used AI to assist in the strategy but
it's hard to imagine that AI could have done a better job if it was
used. Perfection.

I never worked on an institutional trading desk, but I imagine
there must be something akin to "smoke signals" that get sent
between players large enough to move the market in order to
multiply their market influence without getting accused of
collusion. I mean, it wouldn't be hard. E.g. if you see a HUMONGOUS
block order on XYZ sector 45 minutes before the open, that's our
bogey for the day. The order doesn't have to execute, but it could
easily signal all the other players about the strategy for the day.
WallSt Bets on steroids...and nearly impossible to
detect.

They really had to blow out the other side (XLE, currency
dilution basket, etc) to the upside to support the index while NVDA
and other large caps got a break. Impressive!
The pattern has been for them to select 1 or 2 large caps to
support the index on down days - today it is AMZN and
GOOG.
Just look at NVDA ..
Internals not confirming negativity. Market is in yeah right....we know ...
