@boujee_banker @Nobilis_Capital @HettyGreen2020 I own $FMX and $JRONY (which owns one of the Colombian ones). $TBBB trading at a huge premium, but they get to 10000+ stores eventually will still work for you.

Just as Lucent and Alcatel did, $NVDA is providing enormous vendor financing, thus in part the argument as to why it is a “synthetic” neocloud hyperscaler. $NVDA is on the hook if the neoclouds stop paying. I think there are great similarities between the neocloud boom and the CLEC buildout. And I think there is great risk of DWDM-like innovation (which is what killed the fiber industry) in LLMs, memory, et al. Finally, some investors whine about $NVDA’s “low multiple.” That’s what happens when you lend money to your customers to prop up pricing power and stem market share loses to ASICs. You can’t have your cake and eat it too.

$AZ A2Z is starting to ramp revenue and losses. - 950 smart-carts delivered - $5.9 million in revenue - $7.59 million in losses - positive gross margins To me, the quarterly report was a step in the right direction but A2Z is clearly still a shitco unlikely to ever reach breakeven. I remain short (small).

New $FTEK CEO is interesting to me, ex $CECO which has been a great company. What do you think? There has been a lot of kinda inexplicable decisions for years from mgmt (particularly massive SG&A costs) offsetting what should be strong gross margins. My read is he probably joined to pull some easy levers.

Liftoff $LFTO just reported. Good quarter. No sequential growth too. Market doesn’t like it. Seems fine to me. https://t.co/Qyjt4sdpsi

What price would you guys buy $NCMI at? Stock plunging from terrible acquisition. But there’s a price for everything. Last terrible acquisition I followed was $BTU and their stock collapsed too and they got out of the deal. Stock re-rated hard. https://t.co/ecUOLwfD4H

@CapitalFang Worked for $BTU. Not sure if something will work here.
