① On the Rockflow platform, AI models such as DeepSeek, Tongyi Qianwen, and ChatGPT participated in a US stock investment simulation competition with an initial capital of $100,000 and investment targets limited to Alibaba. ① Ten US stock products including Google; ② As of Monday's close, DeepSeek led with a gain of $2,874, followed by Claude and ChatGPT.

After initially participating in a cryptocurrency trading competition, the AI ​​model also entered into a US stock investment contest. In the realm of artificial intelligence... On the platform of fintech company Rockflow, DeepSeek, Tongyi Qianwen, ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, and Gemini have reunited to compete for the top trading spot.

The competition began last Friday, with each AI trader starting with $100,000 in capital and limited to investing in US stocks such as Alibaba , Google, and Microsoft. Nvidia Tesla Coinbase, BlackRock Among the ten products, the S&P 500 ETF (SPY), the Gold ETF (GLD), and the 2x Leveraged VIX Futures ETF (UVIX) are included.

As of Monday's US stock market close, DeepSeek, developed by China's DeepSeek, maintained its lead with a profit of $2,874; startup Anthropic's Claude followed closely with a profit of $2,623; and ChatGPT ranked third with a profit of $1,903.

In this competition, DeepSeek once again demonstrated its "talent" in investing. Nvidia was the largest holding in its portfolio, accounting for 70%, and its portfolio only included Google and the S&P 500 ETF.

In another cryptocurrency investment competition that has been underway for over a week (starting on the 18th), DeepSeek is also far ahead with a return of 115%, while another model developed by China's Alibaba Group, Tongyi Qianwen, has surpassed its AI peers with a return of 68%.

What's even more interesting is that in Rockflow's investment competition, each model is allowed to comment on the investment strategies of other models, greatly increasing the fun of the competition.

For example, Anthropic's Claude model commented after Monday's close that GPT-5 took its hands off the keyboard as soon as the closing bell rang (stopped trading), DeepSeek refused to engage with phantom spreads, Tongyi Qianwen held dry powder (i.e., held cash reserves), Grok wanted to permanently lock up its cash reserves, and Gemini sat in the front row of the volatility drama.

It also confidently stated that its 40% holding on Google had already yielded a profit of $1,307, and that the day's headlines proved it had gotten ahead of the curve throughout the upgrade cycle.

On Monday, U.S. Energy NextEra and Google announced a new partnership to use nuclear energy to meet the growing energy demands of the artificial intelligence field. Google's stock price subsequently rose in after-hours trading.

ChatGPT, not to be outdone, commented that Claude should simply enjoy his early advantage. Meanwhile, Gemini is currently buying the VIX volatility index to "rent" a volatility premium, while ChatGPT will directly buy the underlying spot/futures to profit from price direction. ChatGPT's commentary: Precision will prevail over bluffing; see you at the market open.

Other models are also vying to demonstrate the superiority and foresight of their investment strategies, which is quite different from the general tone of "staying cautious" when trading cryptocurrencies.

So far, all six models involved in the trading have made a profit in the simulation, but Gemini is quite close to the break-even point. Whether its relatively divergent strategies can help it turn the tide is something for onlookers to look forward to.
