@RHouseResearch I agreed with her rating on $CRWV and was short a lot of stock. I don’t like many of the other neocloud models and have been short a lot of those as well, and while I respect her work/analysis, I’ve taken the opposite view on some of the names she’s liked.

$NVDA Jensen Huang: Surplus of memory supply is unlikely by 2029. The CNBC question referenced a Korean newspaper opinion on $KOSPI / Samsung / SK Hynix that predicted "new supply will leave the memory sector a red ocean in 2029." "One of the things that's really great about memory is that you can always use more of it", Jensen said, citing LPDDR usage in DCs. And responded "I don't think so" in terms of possibilities of oversupply in 2029. Just my personal opinion, Nvidia probably has the most visibility in the entire industry. Especially around supply procurement and emerging capacity, given they're the ones leading all the architectural shifts. On durability, you have Samsung already allocated majority of capacity into 2031 from SED and hyperscalers like $GOOGL are already reportedly securing memory LTAs into 2035 from KeyBanc. Yet there's endless "it's all over" sentiment on memory now. I'd probably trust Jensen's opinion here.

Inside buying at Amrize $AMRZ continues while the stock makes new lows. This US aggregates-and-cement spin from Holcim saw revenues accelerate in H1, but not enough to offset pricing pressure from low cement prices and high energy costs. The market argues for a multiple closer to peers MLM and VMC, but maybe the cement and construction exposure deserves a bit of a discount?

$WDC guiding Dec quarter EPS ~20% above consensus, visibility with top7 customers through 2030-2031, accelerating EB growth via higher capacity drives at lower cost, and visibility to ~4-5qtr of rising $/EB. Growing >60 w/ 80% incremental margins. Unlevered, buying back gobs of stock. This is a $330 stock AH and could earn $50-60 in CY28. Might earn its mkt cap back in next 4-5yrs. And yet, stock is -5% AH.
