$EUR.ax $CRML merger recut in whoop. Still looks attractive here at a 17% spread with a clearly very motivated buyer and a reasonably short timeline. Easily hedgable with 10% borrow.

@MLedrappier @roadkillrecipes @CalgaryLeveen @FishOnCapital $NN No doubt the smartest people in the room think Sept and Oct are very live months. The SpaceX news is critically important great news. I may be wrong, but I love the company’s position right now.

Ace River Capital @AceRiverCapital has high conviction in Vox Royalty $VOXR, a precious-metals royalty company with over 70 companies in its portfolio. VOXR is now the largest holding in both his personal portfolio and the fund's. VOXR is an old KEDM Lite flag. https://t.co/Nhi14DHSI7
