The Non-linear Economics of Grocery Delivery Basket

Instacart’s larger grocery baskets create disproportionately better delivery economics than DoorDash’s, making half the basket size worth far less than half the profit.

@finphysnerd @taobanker A sentiment check on X searching $DECK, its universally positive except @CatNyanpital who is the only bearish comments on this name. Doesn't mean it can't work though

Contrarian view: $MRNA raises equity in next week. Bullish. No equity raise in the next 2-3 weeks? Very bearish.

$XGN bio pharma revenue increased 40% yy in Q2 hitting a quarterly record. What we also love is that the stock trades for 2.5x sales vs a comp set at 10.3x. This is in advance of launching testing for Myositis which is another connective-tissue disorder that requires early diagnosis to treat and prevent serious organ damage. Rheumatologists have requested a calibrated Myositis test w/ 15x more frequency than any other test because the condition is so critical to rule out. Only $XGN will offer this and its coming in the 1H of 2027, maybe Q1 and the additional cost of launch are already baked into the cake.

@DueDoctor Oh I agree 100%. The move is totally insane. $GME like. +20% would have made some sense based on math. I actually think lack of 2ndary here is even WORSE for them. They need the cash. 2ndary cleans up that need.

@DueDoctor All goes well this could add $800mn in annual revenue to $mrna. Added $44B in market cap. Market said that theoretical 2-3 year out revenue is worth 50x + yesterdays' market cap
