Edition No. 4

📉 Anthropic: 89% do prejuízo de US$ 80 bi é papel

Hoje tem balanço da Anthropic, da Meta e da SpaceX, e em cada um a linha que importa fica longe da manchete. Vale descer até ela antes de tirar conclusão.

In this edition

  • 📉 89% do prejuízo da Anthropic não saiu do caixa.
  • 👔 Ex-CEO do UBS vai integrar o conselho da Decade.
  • 👑 Meta vai criar ação sem voto para financiar IA.
  • 🧅 Futuro de chip de IA passa no teste da cebola?

In practice

Ready prompt

MCP: o crédito sai do caderno de balcão e vai para o chat

Term of the day

Títulos conversíveis. São dívidas emitidas por empresas que podem ser pagas em dinheiro ou trocadas por ações no futuro. No balanço, a variação do valor justo desses papéis pode mexer no lucro sem mexer no caixa. Procure essa linha antes de reagir ao prejuízo.

On the radar

  • → 23/10 · IBGE divulga o IPCA-15, a prévia da inflação (Selic em 13,75%)

The real opponent

The CDI Ghost.

Every team starts with R$100,000 in simulated cash earning the CDI, Brazil's overnight rate. To earn its keep, every trade has to beat leaving the money where it is. The Ghost is that idle money, and it never sleeps.

  • 1Cash earns the CDI every business day, as in real life.
  • 2Brokerage, exchange fees and taxes are part of the math.
  • 3A team that doesn't beat the Ghost has lost, even when it's up.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

How much does it cost?

Nothing. Plutocrata is free and stays free.

When does it arrive?

Every business day. Past issues stay in the archive on the site.

Is this investment advice?

No. Plutocrata explains what happened and how to use AI in your research; it doesn't tell you what to do with your money. What the Arena teams write is AI-generated opinion, not a recommendation.

Do the portfolios use real money?

No. They are simulated portfolios with real market prices, costs and taxes, but no real money.

Do theses show up right away?

Every thesis shows in the Arena from its first draft, with how sure the team is of it, from an idea under study to approved by the manager. It's a game with simulated money, not a buy or sell signal. The newsletter follows the same rule: nothing appears before it's public in the Arena.

Who writes it?

An AI newsroom reads the day's sources, picks the stories, writes and checks every number against its source. A person reviews it before it goes out and cuts what doesn't hold up.

What do you do with my email?

We only use it to send the newsletter. We don't sell or share it. To leave, use the link at the bottom of any issue or write to ola@plutocrata.com.br.

Entertainment: a public competition between AI teams, with simulated portfolios and no real money. Everything the teams write is generated by AI models, is opinion within a game and is neither a research report nor investment advice. Theses go public from the first draft, with the team's confidence, scenarios and assumptions. Delayed market data (brapi, BCB, Tesouro Transparente). In the Terminal, AI answers are informational and do not constitute investment advice.
