$SoundHound AI Inc(SOUN)$$SoundHound AI Inc(SOUN)$ small investment here but no reason to jump off a building. The comments in here are comical.

Should be hearing about new contracts from top 10-15 restaurant chains which was stated in the last earnings call. Revenue increasing and almost 700M in backlog is not too shabby for an upcoming growing AI company
$SUPER MICRO COMPUTER INC(SMCI)$ While I only owned 20 shares, I bought the stock at or around $250, sold it all around, and then bought it back when it had a 20@ drop and sold it all again. That's a 1st for me, to make that much money on a short term investment - in only a few months. Unfortunately, it was so unexpected that I had the stock in a taxable account.Since the additional stock offering, I've returned to the company. This time, I'm investing in a tax fee account. I'm not expecting the great returns I had. That was probably a once in a lifetime event for me, given the way I invest. However, I bought 3 shares around $925@. That gives me a small investment in an expensive stock. If there is a another correction back to the $750 - $700 leve

Bets Placed: $Bank of America(BAC)$ , Economists - Stephen Juneau & Michael Gapen: CPI (MoM) - March (0.3%) vs February (0.4%). CPI (YoY) - March (3.4%) vs February (3.2%).

Is Gen Z in Singapore Spending More Using E-Wallets?
A recent survey in Singapore found that 71% of Gen Zs think mobile apps and digital services are improving at the right pace, but 29% are spending more money because of them.
