Gray Media $GTN just lifted their political revenue guidance for Q3. The prior political guide was $165-185 million of political revenue. The current guide is $188-195 million of political revenue. Market sleeping on how big midterms will be for media companies. $EVC should do well here.

@chipperPat i am guilty here. I once thought $LFCR could be worth much more. I was wrong. Sort of. If you look at the CVR u can see the max bull case is very much alive. The problem is that w/ a weak balance sheet timing is critical & everything moved slower than anticipated by the bulls.

$NTWK teases 52-wk highs on the back of a mostly good earnings report. This stock has been dead money for a dozen years. The monthly chart is pretty intriguing to me, especially if it closes the month >5. Taking a starter position. https://t.co/wACT0JKp6W
