The day before Labor Day weekend is known to be one with light volume and choppy prices. But I guess not for NVDA, which broke through the round number $50 to new all-time highs:

Way to go NVDA.

If you are a believer in resveratrol, then you may be interested in investing in SIRT. Sirtris Pharmaceuticals was co-founded by Harvard University professor David Sinclair, who believes he has found an elixir of youth with resveratrol.

Sinclair thinks resveratrol works by activating SIRT1, a gene that many scientists believe plays a fundamental role in regulating life span in animals. Biologists have found that increasing the expression of SIRT1 slows aging and fends off maladies associated with growing old, including cancer and heart disease. If Sinclair is right, and resveratrol can activate SIRT1–and if the gene does in fact help control aging–he has found something truly remarkable.

…In a 2004 Science interview, Sinclair added to his reputation as a zealot, calling resveratrol “as close to a miraculous molecule as you can find.” “One hundred years from now,” he said, “people will maybe be taking these molecules on a daily basis to prevent heart disease, stroke, and cancer.”

It is interesting to note that his grandmother has eaten human flesh and was the first person to wear a bikini on a beach in Sydney.

SIRT has also “developed a supercharged version of resveratrol, called SRT501″ and claims to have discovered molecules that are “a thousand times as potent in activating the ­sirtuins.”

“This will impact humans within a decade,” he says. “That’s why I don’t think there is anything more important than this quest. That’s why I take chances, and why the controversy is worth it: because I think we are right.”

Sun Microsystems (JAVA) Chief Technology Officer Greg Papadopoulos has noticed that “an elite group of companies are consuming inordinate amounts of IT infrastructure, well beyond most other businesses, and that their demand is growing exponentially.”

It’s not just about how many CPU cycles a company uses. Papadopoulos argues that red-shift companies will enjoy exponential business growth in the coming years. Blue-shift companies–those whose processing needs aren’t exploding–will grow at about the same rate as GDP, he says.

“All this is really about which side of Moore’s Law you’re on,” Papadopoulos says. “If your applications are growing faster than Moore’s Law, you’ve got a fundamental set of issues about scale and power. If they’re growing slower than Moore’s Law, you’ve got all kinds of opportunities around consolidation.”
