I used to like $EML, but it was never able to sustain the momentum it was gaining prior to COVID, partly due to its exposure to the cyclical trucking market. It's recent acquisitions in the aerospace could make it interesting again. https://t.co/u7uvBGERlA

Steadily down, then suddenly. H/T @forgebitz Semrush showed signficant decline for $RDDT citations last year, and now a sudden further plummet. Perhaps human shitposting and SEO AI slop fest isn’t indispensable data… https://t.co/aSIBSTBUfE https://t.co/z0EEAvAm7E

Reality check: Ph2 $MRNA lead with the data. Ph3, no actual data. They are just saying they hit their endpoints. Those being RFS, DFMS, OS. "We have not disclosed with Merk kind of where the goalpost is". This is not a "personalized cancer vaccine". $MRNA gave themselves an A on the test but we don't know how hard the test was. That's what this is.

@siyul $LX had a bit before but really sized up today. China fintech lender that either adapts to changing regulations and emerges ok, or gets wiped by credit cycle. Bet is the former. Reports Aug 31.
