imo this doesn't capture the usefulness of query expansion. I think the point I was trying to make is that you can leverage LLM knowledge about abstract concepts to turn abstract user queries into more precise queries, hence my use of the semiconductor companies' performance query.

One of the biggest challenges in financial search is the vocabulary mismatch problem:

- Users might search for "Palanteer" when they mean "Palantir" (PLTR)
- They might use "NVDA stock drop" when relevant posts mention "Nvidia shares plummeting"
- They might search for a company name when Reddit posts use only the ticker symbol
