Megachips Corp 6875.T looking interesting given the +30% move on $SITM after earnings+forecast. Megachips owns more than its marketcap worth of SITM. (no debt, net cash). They've done some real buybacks recently too! Core biz is meh. Megachips is about ~¥140bn mcap.

@puppyeh1 It’s dumb to buyback $SNDK stock. Dividends a good idea, or even better just sit on the cash for the next 18 months and see how things develop.

Mark Barrocas: “Q2 was a blowout quarter for SharkNinja. We delivered our 13th consecutive quarter of double-digit net sales growth. And we didn't just sustain our pace, we accelerated to over 22% growth year-over-year. This is our fastest growth rate since Q4 2024.” $SN https://t.co/IPqHNlNfKJ

@JohnHuber72 I believe $NRP's production jump in Appalachia was primary due to $ARLP's Tunnel Ridge mine, which should be a stable producer going forward.
