@WarrenGRuffet Yes. $BRUN leases most of its GPUs from lessors, the companies that buy the GPUs and lease them to $BRUN, then rents the GPUs out to AI startups. The advances and monthly payments are what $BRUN pays those lessors.

At Target doing my weekly rounds of seeing how much demand Pokemon has. There is a line of grown ass men waiting for them to restock the shelves so they can buy cards. Target even put up a mini blockade so they can restock before they open flood gates. GameStop $GME is a sleeping giant.

you can see what's generally implied in stocks, i usually see ranges of like 0-10% perpetual growth implied in stocks for like 20 years. $SKYW is one that is looking like even less than 0% implied growth for 20 years but $HTFL still looks like it's closer to >7% $skyw seems a little too low, $htfl seems around right

It's been overwhelmingly negative recently, but here's some perspective on how supply-constrained demand from $LITE to $MU looks amid possible AI capex slowdowns. As one Korean executive on memory puts it: "Thirty people are already lined up at a restaurant that is full, and five of them leaving does not create a table." The amount of tables might expand, but supply shortages and price hikes in bottlenecks can persist through capex slowdowns or capacity buildout. From AI implications in medicine, physics, materials, robotics, cybersecurity, engineering, energy, to AI itself over the next 5-10 years... We've only reached the precipice of the next technological paradigm shift. The world is going to need a lot more compute.

$LWLG Pre-revenue telecom technology lab project that is already available from competitors. Just delayed commercialization (again). Hoping for 2028 delivery. Even if achieved, won’t be able to remain solvent to get there given the accelerating cash burn. Next stop: $0 per share.
