signal vs noise

• Signal: earnings calls reference “AI risk” more than consumer demand, indicating sentiment influences valuation.
• Noise: short-term price swings from a single quote by a regulator rarely change fundamentals.

risk surface

• If a regulator tweets a red line, the market sells off in minutes.

Markets treat AI risk stories as macro data; we need to monitor sentiment because it becomes a real constraint.
