If Bernstein’s capex numbers for CXMT are anywhere in the ballpark, semicap ought to do well. At this point $ACMR seems to be still be a cheap hedge on memory https://t.co/b4lAZogFcJ https://t.co/kShCjd5m9x
Lots of financials like insurance brokers, banks, retail brokerages getting smoked on Muse / agentic concerns / cash sweeps / wealth mgmt? $SCHW, $LPLA, $RJF all getting crushed along with all of insurance Looks like sell first, think later is back https://t.co/pvWN2aytg3
$MDT $MMED exchange offer an interesting special sit… Own shares of MDT and swap for MMED at 7% discount Odd lot provision for 99 shares held too High enough share price to be worthwhile ($90+ MDT price works out to $600+ profit in a few weeks time)
$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
I've been flat out wrong on $NEN and no longer own it, so it probably works now. ICYMI, the Brown family filed a 13D as a group in June for the first time since Harold passed. I found this sentence interesting. From what I can tell, this language wasn't in any historical family ownership filings.
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
