Huo Xing Cai Jing reports that on July 31, the prominent Wall Street firm Citadel acquired the majority of the investment portfolio managed by the AI stock guru. This news has sparked intense community discussion, centered around conspiracy theories targeting AI stock guru Leopold Aschenbrenner. Public information shows that Citadel recently made high-profile claims about the Federal Reserve raising interest rates, creating market anxiety—combined with prior excessive price gains—which ultimately triggered a market crash. This crash led to a margin call on Aschenbrenner’s fund, Situational Awareness. However, the Federal Reserve did not actually raise rates. Notably, on the same day Citadel took over the majority of the AI stock guru’s fund portfolio, the relevant stocks surged dramatically. Key holdings such as Nebius, SanDisk, Micron, and CoreWeave all rose over 20% yesterday.
