Starting to think $MGM is absurdly cheap here at ~$29… Market extrapolating a terrible Vegas quarter (EBITDAR -12%, RevPAR -8%) while largely ignoring Macau share gains, BetMGM profitability and Osaka optionality. More interestingly, the buyback window reopens 10/30 with $1.4bn remaining (~20% of market cap). Management willing to take leverage from ~4x to 4.5–5x. Vegas weakness is real, but the marginal buyer is potentially the company itself, with substantial firepower at precisely the wrong price for sellers. Note: Barry Diller ($PPLI) was willing to pay $48/share for this exact same company a few months ago… Thoughts welcome.

If First Solar $FSLR wins its patent case at the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC), TOYO Co., Ltd’s $TOYO cells could be barred from the U.S. First Solar filed a complaint at the ITC on February 24, 2026, claiming certain TOPCon cells, a common high-efficiency silicon cell design, infringe one of its patents. The ITC voted on March 26 to open Investigation 337-TA-1494, naming $TOYO, its Texas subsidiary, VSUN (the Vietnamese panel maker $TOYO was carved out of), and VSUN’s U.S. arm among 47 respondents. The ITC’s target date is November 15, 2027. The patent case won’t be decided before late 2027, but it’s another way $TOYO’s cells could be stopped at the border. I’m not worried about the patent case yet, since the ITC’s target date is more than a year away and dozens of other respondents face the same claim.
