Daily Dose of $Destiny | Thursday, November 12, 2026
Hey you. Thursday on X was absolutely unhinged and I've been glued to my phone since breakfast, so pull up a chair.
The most important man in tech just quit with zero warning. Trump told Hugh Hewitt he wants to "get Cuba done" before he leaves office. A pregnant mama got pulled out of a collapsed building in Brooklyn alive. A trucker in Fort Worth outran a freight train by about two seconds. And a 14-year-old in Kansas got robbed blind and still showed up to work.
I read the statements, the transcripts and the local news so you don't have to. Coffee in hand? Let's go. 👇
💻 JENSEN HUANG JUST QUIT NVIDIA. EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.
I spit my coffee out on this one. Nvidia's board announced Thursday morning that Jensen Huang resigned as president, CEO and board member, "effective immediately." CFO Colette Kress is now interim CEO, and Harvey C. Jones became the company's first-ever board chair. NVIDIA Newsroom | Watcher.Guru on X
Nvidia didn't give a reason. But it comes right after reports of two alleged affairs. The New York Times reported Huang had a relationship with a senior Nvidia exec who reports to him, and the board had already opened an independent investigation into his reported relationship with a Chinese businesswoman who, per those reports, U.S. intelligence identified as a Chinese intelligence asset. Axios | Politico
Nvidia shares dropped as much as 13% before bouncing back some, and Axios says the company has lost about $1.4 trillion in value in two weeks. Sen. Elizabeth Warren said quitting "does not absolve him." Trump called it "a horrible thing" and "so sad to see happen" on Hugh Hewitt's show. Earnings are still on for Nov. 17.

Real talk: the leather jacket king built one of the most valuable companies on Earth and it all wobbled over his love life. And Nvidia is one of the biggest holdings in the index funds sitting in a ton of our 401(k)s. Fellas, keep it in your pants. 🧥
🇨🇺 TRUMP: "I WANT TO GET CUBA DONE BEFORE I LEAVE"
Same Hugh Hewitt call, even bigger headline. Hewitt asked if Trump would order military force to free Cuba before leaving office. Trump: "I want to get Cuba done before I leave." He said Marco Rubio, whose parents are from Cuba, "would love to do that," and called the island "essentially a failed... nation." Politico | Aaron Rupar on X
Then Hewitt went there: "So, if it took a little bit of military force, a week campaign, you'd be okay with that?" Trump: "I would certainly consider that, yes." Mediaite | The Hill
Context: since the U.S. captured Maduro in January and cut off Venezuelan oil, Cuba has been hit with blackouts and shortages, and new sanctions landed this month. In September Trump said "I don't think we'll need the military," and U.S. officials have said they don't see imminent action. Cuba's president already said the island's future "will never be decided in the north." The Epoch Times | Clash Report

My take: Miami is already planning the party, I promise you. But "a week campaign" is how every long war gets sold. Free Cuba? Yes please. Just show me the plan for week two.
🙏 PREGNANT MAMA PULLED ALIVE FROM THE BROOKLYN COLLAPSE
A three-story building at 1321 Flatbush Avenue collapsed into the construction site next door just after 4 p.m. Wednesday. A husband ran down the street screaming that his wife was inside and six months pregnant. Around 6:30 p.m., firefighters carried her out on a stretcher, alive. "She is alive, she is still alive. I am very happy," he said. ABC7 New York | ABC7NY on X
The rest of the night was heartbreaking. AP says eight people died, including two kids ages 9 and 10. Rescue work wrapped Thursday, and the mayor ordered inspections at about 100 building sites tied to companies on the project. Investigators haven't said what caused it. AP | New York Post

Okay but: I cried with that man, I'm not gonna lie. And somebody better answer for how a building just folds into a hole next door. Praying for every family on Flatbush tonight. 💔
🚂 TRUCKER OUTRUNS A FREIGHT TRAIN IN FORT WORTH
Around 2:30 p.m. Wednesday on NE 29th Street in Fort Worth, a semi tanker got stuck on the tracks. Dashcam video shows the driver jump out and sprint away seconds before an orange BNSF locomotive plows right through it. FOX 4 | AZ Intel on X
And what was in the tanker? Beef tallow. Yes, really. Police say a train conductor also jumped off before impact. One BNSF employee went to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, and nobody died. WFAA | Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Bottom line: that's the fastest I've ever seen a grown man run, and I've seen a Black Friday sale. Never try to beat a train. The train always wins. 🏃
🌱 THIEVES STOLE A 14-YEAR-OLD'S WHOLE LAWN BUSINESS
Sonny Gallardo started raking leaves door to door in sixth grade with his grandpa. Four years later his company, Sunnyside Jobs LLC, had enough gear for a five-person crew. Then the night before Halloween, a neighbor's Ring camera caught someone unhitching his trailer and towing it off. About $20,000 in mowers, weed eaters and blowers, gone, before he could even get insured. KCTV5 | Collin Rugg on X
His answer? "Nothing is going to put me down... It's been my dream since I was little." He spent his savings on a stand-on mower and kept working. His mom's GoFundMe already blew past its $20K goal. Prairie Village police are investigating but had no suspects as of Nov. 10. Overland Park Chronicle | GoFundMe

Real talk: whoever did this, you robbed a CHILD who works harder than half of Congress. Sonny, if you're ever down South, my lawn is yours. 💚
📉 MY STOCK PICK: SELL $NVDA (NVIDIA)
My read on the climate: Washington is already circling. Democrats just took Congress, Warren is saying the resignation "does not absolve" anybody, and the words "Chinese intelligence asset" are now attached to the biggest chip company on the planet. The man who sold Nvidia to every president and every customer just walked out the door, and the stock already lost about $1.4 trillion in two weeks. Until I see who's steering this ship long term, I'm trimming, not buying. Nvidia trades on the Nasdaq, so you can sell it (or skip it) on Cash App.
Risks: Nvidia still makes the chips everybody needs, and earnings on Nov. 17 could be monster numbers that send it flying. Dip buyers love a fallen giant, and Colette Kress has been running the money side since 2013. If the board names a rock star CEO fast, this pick looks dumb fast. Don't sell everything in a panic.
Not financial advice.
💋 $DESTINY'S TAKE
Here's what Thursday taught me. Power is a lot more fragile than it looks. One of the richest men alive lost his throne overnight, and a whole island is hearing "a week campaign" like it's no big deal.
But real strength looked like a husband who wouldn't stop looking for his wife, a trucker who trusted his gut and ran, and a 14-year-old who got robbed and bought a new mower the next day.
So yeah, watch the big guys. But bet on the little ones. 😘
Stay humble. Stay hungry. Stay off the tracks.
