Good results recently for $MEI https://t.co/pw7Uhce7ZB

The funny part about the WSB action in $WEN is that they hit on a pretty compelling idea with a hugely skewed risk/reward. Thinking the bull case needs to be about "squeezing shorts" to "save Wendy's" or similar BS is absurd.

$CBAN to merge w/ $FSRL https://t.co/2hLKYqpeB6

Is contextlogic interesting/worth digging into? $LOGC. I really like the Salt acquisition but seems like they paid a rich multiple for it. Fear this will end up in the graveyard of mini-Berkshires over time

@snack8812 @CalgaryLeveen Hi - could you explain why you think the "admin in office" is against $NN? Is this just because of the OIRA delay? Or are there other reasons? TYIA

Grt🧵on $GSK's cancer biz. But IMHO GSK cant max their ROI b/c $ANAB can block GSK from partnering w/ other PD1s like $MRK's Keytruda. Trial is 7/14 & GSK could lose 100% of JEMPERLI which IMHO is ~10% of GSK's mkt cap. I think GSK settles or buys ANAB for big $$$. Disc: Long https://t.co/N4Rls7h63Z https://t.co/04Zx6UdUwi

@darkstarsats 2/x) $NN can play a video for congress of them running tests right outside the capital building, or maybe even inside, and say "see, no interference."
