Today's midday tape features some incredible micro-cap fiction. $VIVK, a company with a market cap of just $2 million, announced its crude oil marketing platform expanded to 'over $700 million.' Not to be outshone, KIDZ AI ($KIDZ)—with an $844,000 valuation—disclosed a $44.6 million GPU compute agreement.
