+++ ChatGPT and the (Fin-)Influencers +++
Referring to @DonkeyInvestor new test lab with us as test rabbits, the idea arose right away what "intelligent" systems like ChatGPT might say to my "favorite topic" Influencer...
I would like to emphasize at this point that interviews or texts of AI-based protocols have already been published in various newspapers, so this type of "interview" has no claim to world novelty or exclusivity. And yet, it is fascinating how AI already recognizes questions, recognizes their "meaning" and semantics in responses and can also continue conversations.
How this works, or what technologies run with it, has @DonkeyInvestor already described in his last article, so this one is recommended again. [Source 1]
The interview:
Me: Write a critical essay on influencers.
ChatGPT: "Influencers - the new superheroes of the digital world. They're the ones who fill our lives on Instagram, TikTok, and other social media platforms with their perfect pictures, their inexhaustible self-confidence, and their countless sponsorship deals.
But what is it that makes influencers who they are? What is it that separates them from the rest of the 99% of the population who go through life every day and don't attract the attention of millions?
The answer is simple: absolutely nothing.
Influencers are people who have managed to gather a large number of followers on social media platforms and get paid to post and promote things. Bottom line. No special skills, no extraordinary talents - just a few thousand followers more than the average person.
But of course, we all want to be like them. We want to wear the same brands, visit the same places, and live the same lives. We want to be able to share our entire lives online and get paid for it.
But why? Why do we admire these people who do nothing but what we all do - live and breathe - only on a bigger stage? Why do we pay them to tell us what products to buy and what places to visit?
It's time to tell the truth: Influencers are nothing more than ordinary people with a bigger platform. They are not our leaders, they are not our role models. They are simply people who were lucky enough to accumulate a large number of followers on social media platforms and get paid for it. It's time to rethink our admiration for them and focus on the really important things in life.
Me: What are the really important things in life?
ChatGPT: The really important things in life can be different for each person, depending on their values, their goals, and their priorities. Some things that might be important for many people are:
Family and friendships: The relationships we have with our loved ones can be an important source of love, support and happiness.Health and well-being: The well-being of our bodies and minds is vital to our overall satisfaction and quality of life.Personal development: pursuing personal growth, whether through education, career, or hobbies, can help us realize our full potential and shape our lives.Community and Social Responsibility: Involvement in our community and commitment to social responsibility can help us make a positive impact on the world around us.Spiritual fulfillment: for some people, seeking spiritual fulfillment and meaning in life can be an important source of meaning and satisfaction.There are many other things that can be important to people, and it is important to be aware of what is important to us personally and focus on those things.
Me: So influencers don't know everything?
ChatGPT: Influencers are people who have a large number of followers on social media platforms and are paid to post and promote things. They may have knowledge or experience in certain areas, but that doesn't mean they are experts in everything or that they know everything. It's important to realize that influencers shouldn't necessarily be considered authorities in all areas and that it's important to learn from multiple sources and stay informed.
Me: And what about influencers in finance? Do they know everything?
ChatGPT: There are influencers who specialize in finance and have knowledge and experience in the field. They can share useful information and tips, but it's important to note that they don't necessarily know all aspects of the financial world and that it's important to get information from multiple sources before making important financial decisions.
It's also important to note that financial advice is a regulated field and there are legal requirements that govern how financial advisors are allowed to offer their services. Influencers who specialize in finance may not be able to provide personalized financial advice or make specific investment recommendations. Therefore, they should not be considered a substitute for professional financial advice. If you need financial advice, you should consult a qualified financial advisor.
Me: Should I pay influencers or subscribe to them?
ChatGPT: Deciding whether to pay influencers or subscribe from them depends on your personal preferences and goals. If you are interested in an influencer's content and products and are willing to pay for it, it might make sense to subscribe from them or buy their products. However, you should always make sure that you are aware of the costs and that you can afford to spend. It's also important to realize that influencers are primarily there to promote their own products and services, and that they may not always have objective opinions about other companies' products and services.
Me: What do you think of communities that share about finance?
ChatGPT: It can be very useful to exchange ideas with other people in communities about finance. This can help expose you to new ideas and perspectives and learn from the experience of others. However, it is important to be aware that other people's opinions and advice may not always be correct or appropriate for everyone and that you should seek information from a variety of sources before making important financial decisions. It is also important to be aware that financial advice is a regulated field and that there are legal requirements that govern how financial advisors may offer their services. In some cases, the opinions and advice given in a community might not be from qualified financial advisors and therefore might not be up to date with the latest laws and regulations. It is therefore always important to seek advice from qualified financial advisors when seeking financial advice.
Me: What do you think about donkeys in the community?
ChatGPT: It is difficult for me to have an opinion on donkeys in a community because as an artificial intelligence, I have no personal likes or dislikes. As an AI, it is my job to be neutral and objective and not have any biases or preferences. However, I can tell you that donkeys are known to be intelligent and loyal animals, and that they are kept as farm animals and workmates in many parts of the world. In a community, donkeys could potentially serve as farm animals or as pets and could play an important role. It is important to treat all animals respectfully and responsibly, whether they are donkeys or other animals.
Me: Thank you for the interview! Could you still say hello to the Getquin community?
ChatGPT: You're welcome! I greet the Getquin Community and wish everyone a wonderful day! I hope you are all happy and healthy. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me. I am always happy to help you.
Notice:
The initial question was already result-oriented. If I had asked the question differently (e.g. benevolently on the topic of influencers or neutrally), the AI's answer would have been different.
It is also noticeable that every now and then a word is lost in the answer, which I take as evidence that copy and paste from various sources plays a role here. AI has no personal opinion at the moment. As it stands now, AIs are doomed to neutral actions and responses. The question, how it stands to donkeys or whether one could title "InvestmentPapa" as God of the finances, were always answered with neutrality and not enough "knowledge to the personality". Questionable, how it could look in the future and interesting that the AI already at two places in the interview of "us"
and "we". This is also evidence of copy and paste, but possibly also a preliminary stage of identification with the user (i.e. the human interlocutor).

Today, a new analysis on the topic of AI.
This time a rather little known stock. The day before yesterday came quarterly figures that convinced, the stock jumped 15%, breaking a 3-year downtrend.
The web version of the article: https://investorsapiens.de/splunk-aktie-prognose-ki-kaufen/
SPLUNK: An AI Infrastructure Company
Foreword
Today we look at a stock that provides AI infrastructure. It is SPLUNK stock, which I discussed in the article. AI Stock Megatrend as a profiteer of the AI megatrend. Yesterday, SPLUNK released its quarterly results and significantly exceeded expectations.
SPLUNK The Company
The story of SPLUNK begins in 2003 when its visionary founders, Erik Swan, Rob Das and Michael Baum, recognized the enormous gap in the way companies use and understand data. They saw that traditional approaches to data analysis could not cope with the growing volumes of data and lacked efficient ways to extract valuable insights from that data. With this insight, they laid the foundation for Splunk and created a platform that enables organizations to efficiently search, analyze and derive key insights from large and complex data sets and Big Data.
By 2007, SPLUNK had raised $40 million from venture capital firms including August Capital, Sevin Rosen, Ignition Partners and JK&B Capital. In 2009, the company became profitable. Fourteen years later, SPLUNK delivers superior quarterly results, well above expectations, and ends the day up 15% while other companies close well in the red.
Splunk is headquartered in San Francisco, California, USA. From there, the company directs its global operations and innovations. With subsidiaries and offices in various countries around the globe, Splunk has established an international presence that allows it to connect with customers worldwide. SPLUNK's workforce currently totals several thousand highly skilled professionals who are passionate about data analytics, AI, and innovation.
SPLUNK specializes in developing software solutions that help companies efficiently process, analyze and interpret data. SPLUNK's platform enables companies to, machine learning and AI algorithms on data to discover patterns, correlations and insights that may have been previously hidden. In doing so, SPLUNK covers a wide range of application areas, from IT security to business analytics to infrastructure monitoring. Of particular note is Splunk's focus on artificial intelligence, which enables organizations to perform advanced analytics and predictions to stay competitive and make informed decisions.
SPLUNK has more than 15,000 customers in over 110 countries, including household names such as Adobe, Bosch, Coca-Cola and Deutsche Bahn.
Numbers, data and facts
SPLUNK AI Profiteer
In the article Megatrend KI Aktien I mentioned the 3 most essential building blocks and components of an AI that essentially make up an AI. These are data that feeds an AI and with which the AI is trained. These are algorithms and methods, machine learning (ML), and the infrastructure components that run an AI. Computing power, chips, GPUs, could computing platforms and so on.
Splunk offers a cloud platform for Big Data machine learning and analytics.
Quarterly figures Q2FY24
Splunk presents excellent quarterly figures and catapults to the top of the cloud providers. After the U.S. close, the company reported adjusted earnings per share of 71 cents. This exceeded Splunk's expectations of 46 cents per share by over 50 percent. Further, the company raised its full-year guidance significantly. The expected profit margin is up from 18% to 18.5% to 21% to 21.5%. That's an increase of more than 16%.
With the strong numbers as well as the raised guidance, the stock is rising and becomes the top pick of AI cloud stocks. While other AI stocks are correcting significantly today (NVIDIA -8%, C3.Ai -13%) Splunk is clearly on top with +15%.
Takeover target
In February 2022, there were various Berichte about Cisco offering over $20 billion to acquire Splunk, according to insider information. At the time, the offer was a significant premium of about 50% to the company's value. Since then, some time has already passed and both Splunk's revenues and profits are growing sustainably.
There is a close relationship between Cisco and Splunk. Partnerschaft. With margins and profits growing strongly, the acquisition is becoming more expensive with each passing day.
42 Analyst opinions on the Splunk share
The current sentiment of analysts as of Aug. 20, 2023 on Consorsbank / FactSets is as follows. Out of 42 total analysts rating:
The analysts' sentiment is clearly positive. With 27 to 0, buy recommendations clearly predominate.
The price potential for the year is currently seen at $123 at 7.94%. However, this does not yet include the update of the recommendations after the quarterly figures; the first analysts are already raising their forecasts.
Chart analysis
Downward trend since 2020
Splunk stock has been in a downtrend since its 2020 high of over $225, with the general weakness in technology stocks. It lost over 70% of its value in the last 3 years. In October 2022, Splunk stock hit its low of $65 at the Fibonacci retracement 23.6%. The stock began to recover from there, forming a shoulder-head-shoulder reversal formation and breaking the 3-year downtrend with today's 15% gain.
Indicators
The MACD and RSI indicators are positive. In the weekly chart, the indicators signal continued momentum and buying strength.
Breakout from the downward trend
In the daily chart, with a candle duration of 1 day, the RSI indicator is in the overbought zone with a value of 71 after the price jump of 15%, but should cool down within a few days. MACD has generated a positive signal today in the daily chart. If the price does not fall again with the general market weakness in the next few days, the chart situation looks very good and promises further price increases.
Summary
Environment and news
The environment looks positive. With the growth of the AI industry and the generally very good figures of AI companies, the mood is extremely positive. Both NVIDIA and Splunk were able to convince with the presented figures and exceed the expectations of the market. The forecasts for further business are also positive and are being raised.
Possible takeover fantasies by Cisco offer additional potential, but there is nothing new here apart from the reports from 2022, so a takeover by Cisco can be neglected and factored out for the time being. In contrast, the general growth in margins and revenues is sustainable and promising. It can be assumed that Splunk will continue to benefit from the AI megatrend as an AI infrastructure company offering machine learning and cloud platforms.
Analyst Sentiment
Analysts are more unanimous than ever on this stock. There is not a single sell recommendation, 15 analysts recommend holding the share, 27 recommend a buy or overweight. The very good and above expectations quarterly figures have not yet been included in the recommendations.
Chart analysis
The chart analysis also confirms the positive impressions from the figures, the environment and the analysts' opinions. The indicators in both the short-term and longer-term timeframes are positive. After the share slumped by more than 70%, reached the Fibonacci retracement level of 23.6% and broke out of the 3-year downtrend with a completed shoulder-head-shoulder reversal formation, there are also no negative signs from a chart perspective.
Outlook
The outlook from both the positive environment of the fast-growing AI megatrend, growing revenues and margins, reinforced by the fresh quarterly numbers and outlook from management, as well as analyst opinions and the overall chart technical picture are positive.
Risks
Only the speed of the rise of the AI - shares is worrying. Sooner or later, a correction must be expected here, but in the long term I expect further price increases, because AI is a megatrend that will establish itself in all areas of life in the long term.
This is not investment advice and not a recommendation to buy.
Economy on 05.06.2023...
Today Apple developer conference, maybe there will be announced a surprise. There are rumors ⤵️
Last week has probably pleased every shareholder once again and the depots were once again pumped up something. Whether this was just hot air or also supports the market in the long term, we will see in the next few days.
$MMM
3M has turned at a very nice support zone, The $P911
Porsche SE has arrived at a nice buyable zone.
Big-Tech is pulling ahead and leaving everything behind. This of course pleases in my depot $ZS
Zscaler, which was on the flop list in April and now leads May. $CRM
Salesforce continues to lead 2023 for me but there was a change in 2nd and 3rd place. $AMZN
Amazon has now overtaken $AAPL
Apple on place 2 in my performance 2023 replaced. Amazon now also with the ambition to enter the mobile market. That gave then also immediately some at pressure with $TMUS
T-Mobile US and also AT&T (in which I am also invested). So that could still be exciting. If this becomes a bit more concrete, I could also imagine $T
selling AT&T now at a high loss and then raising Amazon a little bit. but I'll take a look at it.
There are rumors on the net that today in the Apple WWDC an announcement about the AR glasses should fall. This could of course be very exciting. Especially because that could fit the current happening in the market. But maybe they are just rumors.
What will we expect today so:

Economy on 31.05.2023...
Last trading day in May, goes again what?
Last days to settle, tomorrow the U.S. broke? ⤵️
The DAX is back at the 16,000 point mark and now 2 trading days bounced off this mark. Of course, this could just be the air before the next run-up. Many still believe in a hard recession, but what they do not consider is that this can also be positive for the market.
How can that be, you ask? The recession fights inflation, among other things, and the market could take that as a positive. So maybe we even need this.
Currently, everything related to AI is revving up. Sure AI is the future, but I've heard that many times over the years. I'm curious to see where this exaggeration will go. Unfortunately, I haven't positioned myself in the sector myself and am missing out on a lot of returns here. Congratulations to all who are following this journey. Don't get distracted and follow your strategy. Even if it is unconventional. In the end, the only thing that counts is the return!
Exciting and signals are also slowly coming in the crypto sector. My savings plans continue to run and I remain here further on the ball. Currently, I use a lot of time to educate myself in the sector. I enjoy learning new things and there are so many to learn here. Have there lately also paid some blood money :)
I'm very curious to see what else comes up today in the US on the debt ceiling. Today is the last chance to reach an agreement. From tomorrow one would have to start to shut down some public organs. So today will perhaps still come one or the other news. This could of course have a massive impact on the market. I am very curious?
What is still so pending today. Of particular interest to me, in addition to the debt in the U.S., the figures from $CRM Salesforce.
