$LDOS looks interesting to me. They provide a variety of government services including healthcare, intelligence, defence and homeland security stuff. Currently overearning due to a VA healthcare contract that will be renegotiated lower going into 2027. The market has sold them

Know fins are selling off today, but the $JEF underperformance since Radiant World feels like perception <> reality. We literally just saw this movie with First Brands: scary headline, fears of a much bigger balance-sheet problem, then the actual exposure comes into focus. Fool me once…

$SRAD is explicitly mentioned in $META Muse source code & technical documentation - although functionality does not appear to have been turned on yet I believe Meta will expand their relationship with Sportradar https://t.co/OS10T9268i https://t.co/MzTsyf3WV0

One of the better parts about Muse taking off like this for $META is that Watermelon can now be a total flop and no one will care. The bar has now been essentially removed. Who cares if $META can’t make a frontier coding model anymore if they win consumer? If Watermelon does exceed expectations, that’s pretty much just house money

@310Value reminder that $APG pfd A stock, by which the holders get paid hedge fund-like incentive comp based on year end share price, will be converted at year end. Management/board are well incentivized to do everything they can to juice the stock price into year end.

Here is my slide on $GME four wall economics. $1.9 million of sales per store. $580k of EBITDA at a 30% margin. Corporate SG&A only $64k per store as Ryan Cohen has slashed costs and is running this like a startup. These unit economics are stunning. This is why they are beginning to reopen stores again after shutting down 5,000. The payback is less than a year. Wait until the drooling suits figure this out. Management is buying in size, this is one of the reasons. More info: https://t.co/Re7vRQ6uHG

@aurelius28 What do you think they needs to change? I honestly don't think much has changed (apart from valuation) in the case of $FIS and $JKHY (which is too expensive). $FISV seems to have real issues. But despite all the complaints, industry seems to be fine, stickiness high as hell.
