Deepwater’s Munster: AI Is “Different This Time”
Deepwater’s Munster: AI Is “Different This Time”
Last night’s ZeroHedge Debate brought together AI bull Gene Munster and veteran investor (and AI bear) George Noble for a clash over whether the AI-driven stock market rally is another speculative bubble or the beginning of a much larger technological revolution.Munster argued that AI really is “different this time,” with adoption and corporate spending poised to grow far beyond current expectations. Noble pushed back, warning that massive capital expenditures, mounting debt, and questionable returns on investment bear troubling similarities to past bubbles.We recommend watching the full debate, but here are the highlights for those who missed it:Munster: AI Is “Different This Time”A famous Apple-bull in the 2010s (an trade that’s looking pretty good at today’s valuations), Munster dismissed the Dot-Com scare that Noble and others are applying to the AI bull run:”I’m careful when I say that this is different, but this is different. What’s going on right now in AI, the significance of it is hard, I think, for humans to wrap our minds around.”The bull thesis rests on AI spending to grow as adoption spreads across industries, particularly those dependent on knowledge work… and the average AI model now has an IQ of 130, compared to the average human with 100.”There’s $150 billion or $300 billion between OpenAI and Anthropic, $300 billion gonna be spent in the next 12 months from enterprise customers. That’s real spending. But that still doesn’t answer the question: how do you get from $300 billion to trillions of spending?”Munster compared corporate AI-spending relative to traditional software (SaaS), citing a wide divide that, if closed, could mean a growth of several multiples for the AI sector.”The average spend on AI per employee is 25 bucks a month right now. The average spend on, if you look at software, is $700. So this has so much room to grow… the next three to five years are going to surprise people, not just surprise, shock people at how resilient the AI trade is.”pic.twitter.com/jDXheNWV6J— ZeroHedge Debates (@zerohedgeDebate) November 5, 2026George keeping TSLAQ alive Noble drew on his experience shorting Tesla to challenge Munster’s reliance on long-term growth projections, arguing that optimistic forecasts mean little if the underlying financial performance fails to materialize.”I will freely admit that I lost money in the past shorting Tesla, but I also happily report that this year has worked out pretty well so far.””If you look at not only the Tesla revenues [being] way off, but even worse, the margins associated with those revenues, it’s been a complete and utter disaster.”The same risk, he argued, applies to AI companies whose valuations depend heavily on earnings projected (emphasis on projected) years into the future.”I get in a bull market where people are extending time horizons and cost of capital is at a minimum, dreams have more appeal.” But with capital becoming more expensive, Noble suggested that credit markets may be less willing to finance those ambitions.”They always say the bond guys are smarter than the equity guys. Bond guys are like, ‘You’ve got some explaining to do.’ The equity guys are the dreamers… doesn’t matter what I think, the market is not buying what you’re selling.”pic.twitter.com/EV2Zjoj0LJ— ZeroHedge Debates (@zerohedgeDebate) November 5, 2026Check out the full debate below, watch on YouTube, or listen on Spotify.Wall Street Bull And Bear Debate AI: Gene Munster, George Noble, And Jack Farley https://t.co/2YGsPtZt8y— zerohedge (@zerohedge) November 4, 2026

Adult film star had no idea she was MLB player’s side chick until he got engaged, Lindsey Vonn’s happy & more
Welcome to the latest edition of True Romance. I’m back from vacation, and I’d like to say that I’m well rested and fully prepared for the next couple of months before 2027 arrives, but I try my best not to lie.The truth is, I’m not well rested at all. It’s the first Thursday in November already and Thanksgiving is right around the corner. But that doesn’t mean we’re not going to make the most of it. We are.I’m loaded up with caffeine. That’s a good thing, because we have a lot to get to. The first order of business this week is the sad news that came out a few days ago. As a supporter of love, it was truly tough news to swallow.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW!I’m, of course, talking about the breakup of Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson. I thought these two were going to make it. Unfortunately, they called it quits last year, but remain close friends and business partners.So, who knows what the future holds for these two and their nearly 50-year age gap? The reason for the split, according to the Daily Mail, was that the relationship became a distraction. Neither of them wanted that.”Looking back, that was a big part of what pulled his focus away from football last season,” the Daily Mail reported.”He was thinking about taking the next steps with her, getting engaged, getting married, and building a future together, while also dealing with the constant attention and outside scrutiny that came with being in such a high-profile relationship. It became overwhelming for both of them.”Enough about these two. Let’s get to the reality of dating a professional athlete. If you’re only invited to attend road games, there’s a decent chance you’re the side chick. An adult film star says she found this out the hard way.Plus, Lindsey Vonn has a relationship update that she felt the need to share. But don’t expect these updates to take place on a regular basis going forward.Go follow True Romance on Twitter and Facebook and keep sending your emails here: sean.joseph@outkick.com (anonymously if you prefer).Who among us doesn’t love a good story about baseball and romance? We all remember “Bull Durham,” don’t we?Adult film actress Silvia Saige claimed on the “Holly Randall Unfiltered” podcast that she once dated former MLB pitcher Bruce Chen while he was a member of the Kansas City Royals.Chen was close to the end of his career at the time, she said. The two met, according to Saige, thanks to Eric Hosmer while she was doing promotional modeling in Kansas City before she got into porn.”I had gone to an event and I had actually gone home, and I’ll say this guy’s name too, cause f— him, I truly hate this man, Eric Hosmer, was our first baseman at the time and he and I had kind of hit it off at the event,” Saige said. “So I went home with him.”She alleged that he kicked her out of his place after she refused to sleep with him. She assumes Chen got her phone number from Hosmer after he bragged about it in the locker room the next day.’CHARLIE’S ANGELS’ ACTRESS CLAIMS COSTAR INVITED HER TO THREESOME, A CONTRABAND BRA FOR LOVE & NO HARM NO FOULSaige continued, “He (Chen) had hit me up, and he said, you know, ‘I would like to take you out, and I would like to show you how a woman should be treated, because what Eric did to you was completely wrong, and I’m so sorry, let me make that up to you.'”She said that Chen did make it up to her. He flew her out to an away game first class like a gentleman for their first date and pulled out all the stops once she arrived.”When I got there, the doorman knew my name and what I was wearing and escorted me up,” Saige claimed. “I had a massage table waiting and money to go shopping.”None of that was a red flag to her. She thought going all out with the red carpet treatment was how it was supposed to be. They ended up dating for several months, and he even met her family, according to Saige.The entire time, it was first-class flights to away games and “service, service, service.” Around eight months into the relationship is when she found out that she was the side chick.That news was delivered by a phone call from her aunt. Saige said that her uncle had seen on the news that Chen was engaged.She called Chen up, and he confirmed that he was going to marry someone else, but that he would still like to see her too. According to her, he offered her money.”It was like, you know like, ‘I’ll pay your bills and keep you happy,'” she told host Holly Randall.That wasn’t an arrangement she was willing to knowingly enter into at the time. She genuinely thought she was in a real relationship and turned it down. The invites to only away games didn’t give it away that there was someone else.Ladies, if you’re romantically involved with an athlete, and you’re only being invited to away games, take it as a sign.

But don’t expect too many of these kinds of updates. She’s not trying to put it in everyone’s face.”I think in my past it’s kind of been mixed of keeping things private and maybe oversharing.

LIV Golf is officially over after announcing plans to ‘wind-down’ operations after failed rescue deal
LIV Golf is dead.The remaining powers that be were working to manufacture some form of a second edition of the circuit despite having no funding and an entirely unknown roster of players, but the white flag has officially been waved after five seasons.During a bankruptcy court hearing held on Thursday, LIV Golf’s lawyers shared plans for the circuit to begin liquidating its assets, with the process expected to begin on Nov. 9. LIV Golf released a statement following the hearing, announcing that it “intends to transition to an orderly wind-down of its operations.”RORY MCILROY MAKES SERIOUS ACCUSATION ABOUT LIV GOLF WANTING TO ‘DESTROY’ THE EUROPEAN TOURNothing about LIV officially closing up shop is a surprise given recent developments.In April, the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund (PIF) announced that it would cease funding the circuit at the end of the 2026 season. The Saudi PIF was the sole funder of LIV, and following a reported $266 million injection into the league for 2026, was set to reach $6 billion invested dating back to 2021.With the never-ending spigot of cash shut off by the Saudis, LIV filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in September, but was quickly tossed a lifeline by BC Partners in the form of a $300 million pledged investment to navigate through the proceedings and, in theory, be suited to launch ‘LIV 2.0’ when all the dust had settled.On Wednesday, LIV’s lifeline disappeared. BC Partners scrapped the planned rescue deal after the circuit failed to get any firm commitments from the few high-profile players who had yet to officially announce their departure from the circuit.CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGEAccording to The Athletic, BC Partners had secured signatures from more than 30 players willing to compete on ‘LIV 2.0,’ but 10 additional players of higher-profile status failed to commit before the Oct. 25 deadline that was given.”We thank our partners at the PIF for their collaboration and support, and BC Partners Credit for its engagement throughout this process,” LIV CEO Scott O’Neil said in a statement. “We are also deeply grateful to our employees, Board, advisors, and fans around the world, whose dedication, resilience, and belief made this remarkable journey possible. Golf has given so much to so many, and my hope is that those entrusted with its future will lead with the generosity, perspective, and shared purpose this extraordinary game deserves.”LIV Golf was originally formed in October 2021 before the league hosted its inaugural tournament in England in June 2022. Its initial events were contested over three days, consisting of no-cut, 54-hole tournaments with guaranteed paydays for every player in the field.The circuit was able to poach many stars away from the PGA Tour, including Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson, and Phil Mickelson, with the incentives of a limited schedule and nine-figure signing bonuses in some cases.Koepka (2023 PGA Championship) and DeChambeau (2024 U.S. Open) were the two lone players to win a major championship while competing on LIV.PGA TOUR CEO BRIAN ROLAPP REITERATES IT IS NOT CONSIDERING A RETURNING MEMBER PROGRAM FOR LIV GOLFERSThe playing fate of former LIV golfers looking to return to the PGA Tour is unknown at this moment. Koepka returned to the Tour at the beginning of 2026 after taking advantage of a now non-existent Returning Members Program that included many penalties and financial requirements.With LIV no longer in operation, players who stood alongside the circuit until the final minutes – which includes DeChambeau – do not hold any leverage with the PGA Tour and DP World Tour, which now hold the only cards in the game.
Trump Chief of Staff Susie Wiles Faces Calls to Resign After Midterm Disaster

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Susie Wiles is now facing calls to resign or be fired by Trump after Tuesday night’s devastating midterm losses for Republicans.
This comes as she faces blame for Trump’s agenda, staffing, and election strategy.
Wiles was reportedly the leading figure behind Trump’s endorsements of candidates, which Trump himself recently admitted resulted in his “trying to get people in that were people that, frankly, let’s say that I didn’t get along with.” Trump noted during an election night interview that his supporters “didn’t like the candidates, and some of the candidates that I endorsed fought me, and they didn’t like that they fought me.”
Former Trump White House press office staffer Caroline Sunshine called for Wiles to resign immediately on Fox News last night, citing her failure to govern properly and place the right staff in the administration for messaging.
“I’m going to say publicly what a lot of people are saying privately: Susie Wiles needs to resign. She needs to offer her resignation to the president before he has to ask for it,” she said.
“She’s behind the historic loss, where we lost Mississippi and have have lost, potentially, the Senate for six years, and so that cuts both ways. I think if she loves and respects the president and his legacy, she’ll do the right thing and step aside because on the current trajectory, we can’t win in 2028 if we keep going down this current lane,” Sunshine said.
“A lot of this was staff failure. A lot of this was strategy and messaging failure. It’s the chief of staff’s job to manage the staff. James Blair, the president’s top political adviser, should not have been over in a pro-Russian state a month before a wipeout election. He should have been in Michigan.”
WATCH:
Meanwhile, on election night, senior administration officials and staffers were slamming Wiles for promising midterm wins and being “delusional right until the very end,” according to the Daily Mail.
One source in the administration said, “If the boss is smart he’ll purge everyone tomorrow to save his legacy.”
“The thing to remember is Susie took over the entire Trump apparatus,” a senior administration official told the Mail. “The Republican National Committee chair is hers, people running the PACs are hers, Senate candidates are her friends, the Cabinet is hers. She’s the conductor of this orchestra. Anyone she would try to scapegoat would be a person she brought in.”
A former administration official turned his ire instead on Wiles’ deputy, James Blair, the primary architect of the nationwide mid-decade redistricting push, including the Indiana effort that collapsed when the state’s own Republican senators refused to pass it.
“Someone should reach out to James [Blair] and ask him how he plans to redistrict his way out of this one, ‘Wonder Boy,’” a former official said, blaming the former Trump White House deputy chief of staff for legislative, political, and public affairs turned GOP midterm strategy director. “The entire Cabinet is to blame, but JD [Vance] the least of them, and I’m not a sympathizer by any stretch of the imagination.”
Another GOP operative blamed the Iran war and Zionist influencers, saying, “Republicans should stop letting Mark Levin and Marc Thiessen dictate our foreign policy. This is 100% downstream from Iran.”
Wiles previously came under fire with reports that Trump would replace her before the midterm elections, with reports suggesting that Trump had been asking allies for their thoughts on Wiles and potential replacements.
Trump had reportedly floated White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, President of the New York Yankees Randy Levine, Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff, Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte, and former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy as possible successors.
However, Trump and the White House previously dismissed the reports as “TOTAL FAKE NEWS.”

‘God haters’: Legal team cites 8 examples of how ‘Christianity is under attack from coast to coast’
Islam is benefiting from newfound gushing endorsements from faith adherents who, among other offices, have been elected to Congress.
This after followers long have screamed “Islamophobia” whenever there is criticism of the system that not only addresses faith and belief but government actions and describes how to conquer others.
Christians not so much.
According to one of the top legal teams in America, the professionals that Liberty Counsel, Christians, the Bible and Christian churches have been labeled has harmful, or a “threat to the community,” in multiple disputes.
“The forces of darkness” are attempting to extinguish any movement among churches, the organization reported.
“Such is the situation in our most recent case, where a Christian church was specifically branded as a threat to the community, and God-haters barricaded the roads leading to the church! Sadly, that’s not the only anti-Christian bias we are fighting,” the legal team confirmed in an online report.
“We are living in an age when darkness is trying desperately to stop the Gospel, as our current caseload shows,” the report said.
Its case list:
“In Wyoming, last weekend God haters blockaded every entrance to Foundations for Nation’s small country church in a vile attempt to keep Christians out of their community. In previous correspondence, these people specifically branded Christians as a threat to the community.
“In Maine, the state Supreme Court ruled that a mother cannot take her teenage daughter to any church or even read the Bible, agreeing with a lower court judge that Bible-believing churches can be ‘harmful.’
“In California, the City of Los Angeles ordered a city employee to undergo counseling to overcome his Christian beliefs regarding LGBTQ, effectively characterizing his Christian faith as a mental illness.
“Also in California, Christians were unlawfully denied a permit and prohibited from holding a public outdoor worship service, but the City of Los Angeles allowed a “Pride Parade” the next week.
“In Indiana, the Future Farmers of America (FFA) forbids Fellowship of Christian Farmers International (FCFI) from participating in the FFA’s national convention because Christian groups aren’t welcome.
“In Washington, worshippers were violently assaulted and pelted with human waste, while the Seattle mayor labeled the Christian victims as ‘right-wing extremists.’
“Again, in California, the Santa Fe School District ordered a 6-year-old to undergo reeducation counseling to overcome her Christian views about transgenderism.
“In Virginia, a cross-dressing man is suing the nation’s largest Christian university in an effort to force it to abandon its Christian doctrine.”
The team explained it actually has “scores” of such disputes to address, “because Christianity is under attack from coast to coast”
