January’s jobs report looked solid on the surface but the big story is the massive revision to 2025 job creation, which sparked debate over how reliable the labor data really is. With CME FedWatch odds shifting toward rates holding steady in June, we break down which sectors could get pressured if rate cuts get delayed (real estate, homebuilders, REITs, smaller companies that rely on debt, and even consumer discretionary names like Amazon — plus Tesla as yields stay elevated). Then we pivot to the other major theme: AI and the market’s rotation from software into hardware. Marc Andreessen frames the debate — are chips and energy where the value is, and does software get commoditized? We talk through why Micron is reportedly sold out of chips through 2026, while software names like Salesforce and HubSpot have been getting hit and why some investors may be turning impatient only three years into what could be a 30-year AI cycle. We also cover Shopify’s record Q4 revenue ($3.67B, up 31%) and a $2B buyback, yet the stock still dropped as investors focused on margin pressure and AI investment costs. Finally, we tie it together with a simple takeaway: in high-rate uncertainty, investors tend to prefer “tangible” returns and that’s why AI hardware can trade like a perceived store of value versus software that still needs proof points.
