I know I was poking some fun at $META last night but I think its a buy here in all seriousness. Not advice. But lots of ways to win in the end. Not advice, do own DD etc. I could be wrong.

A name for @dirtcheapstocks and @dirtcheapbanks... $ETD. $600 mkt cap, $133MM in cash, no debt. Generated $40MM+ in cash flow last year. They also have extensive real estate holdings (unencumbered) which could be worth $175-$275MM. They pay a regular dividend of $0.39/quarter which is about a 7.0% yield. For the past 6-years they've used any excess FCF to pay special dividends to shareholders. The stock trades at 1.5x book (which is clearly understated). Seems like someone should buy this biz.

$NN I agree with those who say I have been overly optimistic on timing. That said, I have underestimated the value of the NN low band spectrum. This article gives a good idea about potential demand for low band from Elon and SpaceX.

$NN Given demand from direct to device carriers, we might receive bids from 4 or 5 parties willing to pay a fair price for the NN low band spectrum. These bidders could include big three, Amazon and SpaceX.

$META’s platform engagement is incredibly robust and healthy with a deep product pipeline. The business is fine. I understand the capex debate, and clearly the biz is today more capital intensive, but I’m sure Zuck will make the right decisions in the end. Weakness is likely a buying opportunity.

In case you're wondering how "actively" executives "manage" their 10b5-1 plans, I present to you the $4.0MM stock sale (27K shares) from $HURN's CEO filed TODAY. Unprecedented squeeze/rally in the stock and he sold ALL of the stock in his 10b5-1 in a SINGLE DAY (It was filed 10/30/25 and expires 10/30/26). Remarkable https://t.co/EqEp25lTxm
