Sector action is bizarre today --- travel/discretionary (ex amazon (who posted very lousy prime sales) are surging), housing and adjacent like furniture ($w $wsm), biotech adjacent bid ($rgen, $medp) and waste stocks ($wcn). You want to derrick micron, I get it. And I get gas prices lower, market expects to fade out rate cuts that were priced moving forward as Warsh moves to trim mean/new data versus actually being hawkish, and some impact on a name like $hd off the housing bill. But all of these things are at the margin and known leading up to today --- so why target, kbh (on relatively inline to disappointing numbers yesterday) Expedia today versus yesterday? Market moves in very funny ways recently

Good to see someone paying attention on life insurers from Bloomberg today. Private Credit and certain life insurers are deeply linked - $MET, Lincoln are just the tip of the sphere I would add https://t.co/Vcyt0RFlT1 and certain regional banks like $WAL in that mix too. *and sure 95% of all your pc loans are credit grade MetLife, can I ask how many were rated by Egan Jones?*

Anybody see this run in $WNC? crazy, gone from serious balance sheet risk to the fastest trade in the market. Company commented they might get to a replacement market next year (versus years of tough order books) and the commerce ruling on dumping from china that will put tariffs on Chinese suppliers (maybe 20% of the market?) should help those 27' numbers. But issues remain in what is a pretty poor business when the dominant industry player fluctuates on bankruptcy each cycle.

Assume you have seen it, but $MHGU CEO 5/19/26 presentation is solid. They will get a EBITDA boost from being allowed to close poor locations, breakfast opt-out, and $7.3M G&A cuts. If new WEN mgt does its job, MHGU could end up a rocket ship. Less liquid/risky/trades OTC, but I own a bit - potential upside dwarfs current share price, IMO.

@waterboystocks DPZ looks interesting, but I have pizza covered with little Pizza Inn $RAVE. 100% franchised, zero debt, cash ~25% of market cap, potential for turnaround to transform into growth story next 1-2 years.
