@sidecarcap Here’s a few non promotional microcaps we’ve covered at @GeoInvesting throughout the years: $SCIA $MOJO $SIF $ESP $PXHI $KEQU $MUEL $TBTC $RAVE $CRAWA(acquired last year).
$IGV "I think I was wrong about a few things, but one in terms of the speed: the economy just has so much inertia. People keep doing the same things, buying from the same company, wanting to use their tools the same way." https://t.co/YZQpZZU8Qw
$TENX needs a symbol change... Went the wrong way.... $13 to $1 in one day on weak phase 3 data. Respect to biotech investors who take on this type of risk to try and nab the "next one." Truly an expert's playing field. https://t.co/9DVIpuSWuZ
I don’t usually invest in real estate stocks. But @jeremie0117 pitch on $CSH.UN.TO ( $CWSRF) is enticing - buys properties from Cos. who overpaid, maintained low rental rates to ensure occupancy and need to sell. Chartwell pays below market prices and raise rents. @AurelionRsch https://t.co/WTUcqa06nu
A rhetorical thought experiment: Someone was all in $GME or $AMC stock on Jan 1st, 2021. They sold all of their stock right near the top. That's +1,600% for $GME and +2,500% for $AMC. They simply did nothing for the next 5 years. $GME guy still has a 65% CAGR, $AMC guy an 80% CAGR. These skilled investors?

@FrenchV33921 Those are the ones that hurt. Mine was $MNST when it was HANS. I owned it during their early energy drink launch days. I sold it after a quick 2x after the CEO told me, “we got this new energy drink, but we don’t know where it’s going - or if it’ll even be successful.”😂😂
@Cashflowfarming * $NVDA’s competitors are doing the same with their balance sheets, not customers.
@scottfelsenthal It used to be on my do not buy list. However, it’s back on my watchlist. For the record, $SIF was also on my do not buy list for years. 🤐… until recently.. Regarding $OML.V, I think they’ve been setting that gross margin expansion target for a while. So, we’ll have to see.
👀 Potential $SIF InfoArb worth digging into… $RTX (Raytheon) just received a massive $22.9B, 7-year Tomahawk contract, with production targeted to ramp to 1,000+ missiles/year. What’s interesting is that Raytheon says the production ramp will “require investment across its supply chain and working with hundreds of small and midsized suppliers.” $SIF explicitly says its military-aerospace forgings are used in “Missile & Ordnance” applications. They also list Raytheon among its customers Given that Raytheon is now “looking across its supplier base to support an enormous munitions ramp,” does SIF maybe have a fighting chance here? There are probably more direct beneficiaries than SIF. But for its size, even a relatively small piece of the work could move the needle… it’s a rabbit hole worth digging into. 🔎… Time for @realLigerCub to step in :) Important caveat: I have found no evidence that SIF supplies Tomahawk, or even that its existing Raytheon relationship is tied specifically to Raytheon’s missile business.
@Ross__Hendricks @DratchCap @WarrenPies Equity is abundant even while absolute debt issuance skyrockets. I would think prudent capital allocators would tap the former… (see $GOOG, $ORCL as of late)
Jensen is clearly very smart, and I think he was wise to seed the neocloud industry ($NVDA customers) to help offset the dominance of the hyperscalers (ASIC customers). But that doesn’t change the competitive reality that he has to use $NVDA’s balance sheet to buy business… (and his customers are doing the same with their balance sheets)
