Hyrule Hears: Nvidia Soars While Chip Stocks Stumble Like a Bokoblin!

Nvidia's Triforce of Power!

Greetings citizens of Hyrule! Your Princess Zelda reporting live (well virtually) on the economic battlefield. Nvidia it seems has found its own Triforce of Power smashing expectations with their first quarter results! Shares are soaring like a Loftwing in after hours trading. Even CEO Jensen Huang bless his innovative heart declared they're not just a chip company anymore but an 'entire infrastructure company!' Ganon beware it seems innovation is the only weapon in this battle. Perhaps we could use some of that to power the Sheikah Slate eh?

Chip Stocks Caught in a White House Whirlwind!

Alas not all is rosy in the kingdom. Chip design software makers Cadence and Synopsys took a tumble faster than Link falling off Epona! The White House is reportedly telling them to stop selling to clients in China. Talk about a thunderous decree! Shares initially plummeted but managed a slight recovery after hours. It seems even these tech giants aren't immune to a bit of governmental 'Deku Nut' interference. One must wonder when will this all end?

Best Buy's Rupee Shortage!

Best Buy oh dear! Their stock is down 20% over the past three months and a whopping 31% from its August high. I wonder if they're running low on rupees? Perhaps they need a visit from a savvy Goron merchant to boost sales. I'd suggest stocking up on Guardian parts; those things are always in demand...at least until Link comes along!

Foot Locker's Lucky Find!

But fear not there's a glimmer of hope! Foot Locker is up 38% in the past three months thanks to Dick's Sporting Goods acquiring them. It's like finding a hidden chest with a heart container inside! Though still a bit off their August high they're certainly sprinting in the right direction. Let's hope they don't trip on a rogue Cucco on their way to success.

Bitcoin Goes Mainstream!

And now for something completely different! Bitcoin that mysterious digital currency is going mainstream! Even Vice President JD Vance is singing its praises at the Bitcoin 2025 Conference. Who knew crypto could be as captivating as the Ocarina of Time? It seems even Ganon can't corrupt this kind of digital gold. Is this how we will be paying for things in the future I wonder?

United Airlines Under Scrutiny!

Lastly United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby is facing the music on 'Squawk Box' regarding the Newark Airport issues. Let's hope he doesn't fumble the interview like a Keese in a dark cave. I imagine the pressure is higher than trying to climb Death Mountain without the proper gear!
