> **Visual Context:** The image is a chart titled "Best Performing Stocks in the S&P 500 over Last 5, 10, 15 & 20 Years (Total Return)" from Creative Planning, ranking top 20 stocks in each timeframe. NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA) tops all four lists with returns of 2282% (5 years), 81669% (15 years), and 53104% (20 years), alongside other tech leaders like Microsoft (MSFT), Tesla (TSLA), Amazon (AMZN), and Apple (AAPL).

This aligns with the post's point: before the 2023 generative AI boom, NVDA was viewed as a cyclical tech stock, yet the data shows it has actually been the S&P 500's best long-term performer, suggesting its recent surge reflects an acceleration of an already dominant long-term trend rather than the start of one.

> "THE MARKET IS NOT UNPREDICTABLE ITS NOT RANDOM

I’m tired of people saying just because they don’t understand how the market moves. They’ll say it’s volatile it’s unpredictable. It’s not, it’s predictable the algorithm moves in a predictable way, you just don’t understand how it works. “bro if the algorithm is predictable then everyone would make money everyone would be rich” Not true because not everyone discovered the parameters and paradigm on how the market moves. Banks always have a plan, they don’t manipulate the market in random ways . No ! it’s planned. Banks has been planning for decades, it’s not random."
