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

$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’s a video from $RFIL website on how their DAC (direct air cooling) product works in large enclosures. In theory, $PSIX might be an interesting channel partner if they have an “at the edge” enclosure presence. DAC is not a hyperscaler solution, but the “edge”is heating up. https://t.co/h8EScDrBlo
