$GSM Ferroglobe up today on announcement of a European review of antidumping measures on Chinese silicon metal Has been in a volatile trading range for years, but potential bull points appear be stacking up. (I own long dated calls, watchlist stock)

$TLYS turnaround looking good: ° Same-store comps +12.1% ° August (first month of Q3) comps +14.6% ° 13 month steak of growth ° Cash + securities $62.2M vs $50.7M ° Q2 net income $8.4M up from $3.2M Gross margin +300 bps Most important, earings I bought my daughter on Tilly's store visit are her fav pair, so wins all around 🥳

The rheumatologists on the call also confirmed 2 things: 1.) XGN tests are superior in identifying lupus markers vs legacy and 2.) Myositis is critical to rule out early to avoid very serious lung issues. $XGN launches Myositis labs early next year. Confirmed the entire bull case imho.

@HiddenGemsInves $CHCI ° Asset light, high ROIC asset manager ° Track record of revenue, FCF growth, clear strategy ° ~30% owned by Dwight Shar, founder/former CEO of $NVR ° move into data center development is a potential grand slam - a cheap call option

@GrumpierBTDay @vanillager Off topic, but have you looked at $AERG?

I think the starman parent owns incipio (phone cases) and incase (backpacks, computer cases and electronics cases). A better fit would be buying targus off $RILY but my best guess is that they are after GoPro for patents they intend to use to become a troll. No proof just what makes sense here.

@RodrigoLezama7 @ALDeAng08 @Mike10947310 @MicrocapDr Yeah, liquidity excuse is bogus. Being right fixes everything. Big caps have fallen 50% in one day on earnings misses. Remember when illiquid $MUEL was $45 with a P/E of 4x in 2024. Pessimists said it wouldn’t get much higher. P/E got as high as 15x as the stock went to $500.

$GPRO call options in Apr27 seem very pricey given the deal on the table. Starman has offered $1.14/sh cash and 10% of combined company. Are people really expecting a higher bid? What is the catalyst to push shares above $1.50 let alone $2? https://t.co/78apsqUwsg
