Moody’s: Fasten Your Seat Belts, But Not for AI
Moody’s ratings business faces potential deceleration, while AI-related debt issuance and anti-data-center politics pose less risk than investors fear.

Is this bullish or bearish $C?
$HAWK now trading around $17.15, or -34% below its $26 IPO price. Initial lock-up expired last week, but I think it is unlikely many shares will come to market at these prices. $HAWK is also being added to the $IWM. $HAWK continues to have strong defense tech tailwinds, and they now have $500 mm+ of cash on hand. Valuation is now much more attractive and below the $18.86 price of their pre-IPO Series E financing.
@Maku_Capital It's a long list, some secular dynamics, some specific to $CASY, and competition, lots of it. This is not the right platform for me to lay out my entire short thesis....
$GME has 50%+ leases expiring in FY2026 and another 24% in FY2027 Maybe some risks in re-leasing at higher costs, but this is a huge advantage to walk away from unprofitable or underperforming stores fast
Anyone have thoughts on $B going into the North America spin post-Newmont settlement? Feels like it’s been a pretty consistent laggard vs. the gold peers despite the potential value unlock. Curious what I’m missing.
$MCD traded at 15x PE in 2012, when just 81% of stores were franchised. Today 95% are franchised, the balance sheet is twice as levered and they have already raised prices far faster than competitors. Is this a table pounding idea at 19x NTM pe?
