Stride’s $LRN CEO James Rhyu seems to be getting canned and will be replaced by old-timer Robert Knowling. Is the 71-year-old CEO the right person to run a company that’s struggling with tech implementations, or is he better suited to manage relations with school boards? To calm the markets, LRN pre-released earnings in line with expectations, but they failed to comment on enrollment figures, which spooked markets. This has been a volatile name. If they guide to a return to growth in Q1, this should re-rate from the 9x FCF it currently trades at. If for some reason enrollments decline because parents are holding a grudge after a year of tech issues, watch out below. Operating leverage is very strong here. Mr. Knowling’s contract includes a change-of-control provision.

@shortbus_ace @akeemcap @QuietProsperity $CAAP is 6x EV/EBITDA and no Mexico. But half of EBITDA is from Argentina, so that's its own can of worms (albeit the Argy fees are charged at a fixed USD rate not Peso)

UBS initiates $CENX conservatively: $60 at 4x EV/EBITDA > Oklahoma & shareholder return catalysts > best leverage to US MWP > Oklahoma and datacenter not priced in > 4x below normalized mid cycle https://t.co/MiKQD9rlFV

@DeItaone from the low base rate, this would significantly expand $DJT revenue

@TedHZhang or maybe $IMAX does not want to figure it out because they would rather sell the digital system?

I view this primarily as: 1. proof Boeing sees eVTOL as a non-core opportunity 2. acknowledgment by Boeing that the businesses will lose $$ for some time and would be better off of the consolidated financial statements Boeing will take a stake in $ACHR, so it is nott a wholesale abandonment of eVTOL.

$ACHR buying $BA 's Wisk aero. Huge move in the eVTOL space. https://t.co/vHQ9NWLUF1
