Must read imo on $OPEN. Scott raises some great points about the potential if things go right. I have no position rn, and have a more pessimistic view than Scott on the value of Eric Jackson's involvement (my view: he certainly kickstarted but unfortunately showed his true colors stalking a random celebrity for no reason. He is a liability now).

I’ve always felt that shares outstanding in microcaps tells you about the soul of Mgmt. So I instantly connected with @bmb21 when he made a similar comment pitching $AMNF at @MSmicrocaps summer virtual: “Share count tells you how Mgmt. feels about the sanctity of the shares.” https://t.co/88XsqxHLKB

Fantastic $NRP update from John. Particularly appreciate his capital allocation framework and view on why paying out 100% of cash flow makes the most sense. https://t.co/6LngKKV9hC

Tiny, but perhaps interesting. Neuphoria $NEUP will be acquired by Scancell in an all share merger, resulting in a Nasdaq-listed Scancell (SCLT) alongside Scancell’s AIM listing. The current ratio implies $4.55 per NEUP share (~16% gross spread), plus a few CVRs tied to several milestones. partnered asset milestones. The deal is paired with up to $89m of new financing, plus $10m of Neuphoria cash, to fund Scancell’s Phase 3 iSCIB1+ lead melanoma trial through key readouts into 2029.

@Gubben89 Replacement cost for $MU production capacity is probably $100-150B today. Why doesn’t @elonmusk announce that he is going to spend $50-100B building DRAM/HBM in US? A pittance for $SPCX and resolves the bottleneck? Even if it takes years, it helps alleviate current price gouging?

$CLBT - You can make a pretty compelling case that the guidance cut was to kitchen sink the expectations for the new CEO so he has a bottom base to build off of. From the call 4-5 major deals slipped out a quarter, and Genesis isn't ramping as fast as originally thought, but new products are growing +25% & they have tailwinds in terms of FedRamp & YoY US federal basically didn't grow last year. Next quarter they beat, and re-raise guidance and stock is back to $16. 50% return from here in a quarter. Clearly if they can't close deals in Q3 at a faster pace then the recovery takes longer, but seems like good risk-reward here. Full disclosure: I added some at $10.5
