$HROW CEO Just Laid Out the Bull Case 🚀

Yesterday, $Harrow Health Inc(HROW)$ CEO Mark Baum spoke at Cantor's conference and he couldn't have been more bullish. Here is everything you need to know. 1. The $250M revenue quarter for 2027. This goal has been reiterated since 2025. Put it against Q4 2025's $89.1M, and the growth target seems difficult. The business has to nearly triple. If they achieve this, the stock will rally. 2. Under-promise and over-deliver is the new motto. Baum is changing strategy because Harrow underperformed expectations in H1 2026, when VEVYE pricing changes dragged first-half revenue to about $115M. A lower bar in the future protects the stock from another miss and earns back some credibility. 3. H2 2026 must deliver. Harrow booked roughly $115M in the first hal

Why I Think the $NU US Launch Could Be Huge

$Nu Holdings Ltd.(NU)$ officially started operating in the US yesterday. I think investors may be underestimating what this could become. Right now, the market largely sees Nu as a niche, low-cost digital bank in Brazil. That helps explain why the stock trades around 15x forward earnings. But I think that valuation misses the bigger story. 🏦 $NU isn’t building a traditional bank Nu was built from the ground up on modern technology. That matters. Legacy banks are still carrying decades of old infrastructure, expensive processes and huge operating structures. Nu has a completely different setup. A more efficient technology stack means it can serve customers at a much lower cost. That gives the company room to offer cheaper financial products while sti

$SOFI Is It Garbage or the Next 5x Fintech?

Good morning, tigers ☕️📈 Is $SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$ an overvalued “garbage bank”… or one of the most interesting 5x fintech opportunities in the market? I’m firmly on the bullish side. 🐂 The long-term $SOFI story goes far beyond lending. 🎓 It starts with student loans Student loan refinancing may be one of SoFi’s most powerful customer acquisition engines. The U.S. student loan market is approaching $2T, creating a huge pool of potential customers. But the real opportunity is what happens AFTER the first loan. SoFi can bring people into its ecosystem at a very early stage of their financial lives. A recent graduate refinances a student loan. Then their career progresses. Income rises. They need a personal loan. Then a mortgage. Then a credi

Stop Waiting for the Perfect Entry

People need to automate their investments. Automation protects investors from their own procrastination, fear, and hesitation. When people must actively choose to transfer money into an investment account, they find excuses to skip it. They claim the market looks too high, there is nothing worth buying, and maybe I skip it this month. Let me wait for stocks to get cheaper. “Far more money has been lost by investors in preparing for corrections, or anticipating corrections, than has been lost in the corrections themselves.” Peter Lynch The problem is that nobody knows what the market will do tomorrow, next month, or next year, especially the experts. By automating your investments, you can bypass these behavioral roadblocks. This is exactly what dollar-cost averaging is for. Under this met

Your Raise Should Make You Richer, Not Just Fancier

You should increase your investments, not your spending. When people earn more money, they immediately begin to spend more money. They buy a nicer car, move into a larger house, and eat at more expensive restaurants. This is called lifestyle inflation. People should put the majority of income increases into their portfolio instead of increasing their spending. I know that this is difficult. People have a bias, as they value immediate rewards much higher than future rewards. Asking a person to cut their current spending to invest more money for the future triggers an immediate psychological reaction. You worked hard last year and deserve that $20K vacation to Bali. Many people treat their bonus differently than their salary, viewing it as free money meant for luxury spending rather than cap

$SKHY: The Buyback Story Is Getting Serious

$SK hynix(SKHY)$ just put a huge number on the table: 💰 $28.6B buyback planned for 2026. That’s roughly 3% of the company’s current market cap in a single year. And management plans to direct around 50% of free cash flow toward buybacks and dividends. Analysts expect nearly $600B in FCF from 2026–2028. If that plays out, we could be looking at roughly $300B returned to shareholders over just three years. That’s more than 30% of the company’s current market value. Think about what that means. You’ve got a business still growing earnings, while simultaneously shrinking the share count and sending massive amounts of cash back to shareholders. People may still view $SKHY as a “commodity” business. But a company that can generate this much cash, keep g

Build the Equity. Own the Equity. Compound Both.

There are really two ways to participate in a generational wealth cycle: 🏗️ Build the company. 📈 Own a piece of the company. The best path? Do both. Build something people need. Get good at something valuable. Find a business model that actually makes money. Then sell it. On the investing side, look for businesses the world needs, buy them at a reasonable valuation, and have enough conviction to stay with the trend. For me, the combination is powerful. Active income gives you cash flow. Investing gives your capital room to compound. Running a business builds skills and judgment that can make you a better investor, too. And there’s one part people rarely talk about: 💵 Cash flow changes everything when you’re early. If you’re in your 20s or 30s and struggling to make trading pay the bills, a

Buffett Got Rich Slowly. Most Investors Can’t Wait

Warren Buffett has spent decades proving one simple idea: Getting rich through investing is usually a slow process. And most people don't have the patience for it. Buffett has described his approach as a “get rich slowly” strategy, while also warning that people often want results much faster. That impatience can be expensive. Think about the power of just a 3% annual return difference. 💰 $500 invested every month ⏳ 40 years 📈 9% annual return You end up with roughly $2.34M. Now keep everything the same but earn 6%. You end up with roughly $996K. Same $500 monthly contribution. Same 40 years. The difference is more than $1.3M. 🤯 And only $240K came from your own contributions. The rest came from compounding. That's why patience matters so much. Investors often abandon a strategy because th

Institutions Are Quietly Loading Up on $MRDN

Something interesting is happening with $Meridian Hldg(MRDN)$ . Institutional ownership has climbed roughly 50% since June to around 762K shares, with Jane Street, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan adding exposure in August. 👀 That kind of accumulation gets more interesting when you look at the potential catalyst ahead. 💰 Full-year GAAP profitability. If Meridian reaches GAAP net profitability, $MRDN could start showing up on a much broader range of stock screeners that require positive earnings. And that matters because this is still a sub-$200M small-cap competing for attention with thousands of publicly traded companies. Right now, discovery is part of the problem. But if the current financial trajectory continues and Meridian reaches

AI Needs Copper. These $COPX Miners Could Benefit Next 🟠

Copper is becoming one of the most important commodities in the next phase of the AI and electrification cycle. 🟠 AI data centers need power and massive amounts of wiring. EVs require significantly more copper than traditional vehicles. Power grids, robotics, defense and industrial electrification are adding another layer of demand. And the supply side is getting tighter. Copper recently pushed above $14,700 per tonne as strong demand from power grids and EVs collided with tight supply. The problem is that new mines cannot be brought online quickly. Exploration, permitting, financing and construction can take years, while existing mines face declining grades and rising costs. That creates an interesting setup for copper miners. 👀 ⛏️ Major producers$BHP

One of the themes I keep coming back to is founder-led companies.

$SPCX Is a Perfect Example of How I Trade Hype

My 3-phase playbook for trading a “hot” or hyped event: 1️⃣ Let the initial hype fade The first week is usually pure excitement. I don’t chase it. 2️⃣ Let the “it’s down a little, time to buy” crowd fade Usually months 1–2. This is where the early dip buyers get impatient. 3️⃣ Buy when boredom and pain peak Usually around months 3–6 after the original event. We saw this play out almost perfectly with the $SpaceX(SPCX)$ IPO. By the 3–6 month window, you’re often looking at a much better setup: • Price has stabilized • The insane premium starts to disappear • Risk becomes easier to manage • You can actually build a meaningful position in great assets The best way to maximize these situations? Trade the anticipation, not the hype. If the event date i

7 Underrated Investing Habits

Anyone who has ever said that investing is easy is either a liar, a fool, or both. Investing is not easy at all. If you believe that investing is easy, then you have already lost. However, if you approach investing with respect and treat it as a lifelong marathon, then you can win at it. Nowadays, everyone has access to an abundance of market data, yet despite this wealth of information, investors consistently fail to beat the market. This underperformance comes from a failure to understand that wealth doesn’t come from complex trading but rather from a few simple, underrated investing habits. So I decided to quickly go through 7 of what I believe are the most underrated investing habits that all investors who want to beat the market must develop. 1. Patience Everyone knows that Warren Buf

Volkswagen Is Running Out of Time

The fate of Volkswagen explains yesterday's election results in Germany, with AFD securing a massive victory. $Volkswagen AG(VLKAF)$ is down 67% from 2017 peak, and it is on a path towards bankruptcy in 5 years. Its recent 8% jump after the union agreement is unwarranted. They should close factories TODAY, but because of the pressure from the unions and the government, they will close in 2030-34. The unions and the government are not allowing Volkswagen to compete effectively. These delayed factory closures will cost billions and waste valuable time, when there is no time left. This is literally the same thing that happened 2 years ago, when instead of major reforms, unions and the government pressured VW into small cuts and no plant closures. Th

$IREN Down 42% While Revenue Estimates Surge

$IREN Ltd(IREN)$ is down 42% from its highs. But the interesting part is what’s happening underneath the stock. Analysts currently see roughly 44% upside, while $IREN remains on track for $4B of 2026 ARR. The company could potentially reach $16B–$24B of ARR in 2027 if its AI infrastructure rollout continues as planned. And the estimates are already moving. The fiscal 2027 revenue estimate has jumped from $1.5B to $2.8B in just 12 months, an 87% increase. The fiscal 2028 estimate has also moved higher, from $6.4B to $7.2B. That’s the key question for me: If analysts had to raise the 2027 estimate by 87%, how much room is there for the 2028 number to move next? The economics are also getting more interesting.

$SOFI Has Beaten Estimates for 21 Straight Quarters

$SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$ has beaten analyst revenue estimates for 21 straight quarters. Normally, a streak like that forces analysts to raise their numbers until the company eventually starts meeting or missing expectations. That hasn’t happened with $SOFI. Even more interesting, analyst estimates for 2028 revenue and EPS are still below the company’s own 2028 targets. That tells me the bigger opportunity may be the gap between what Wall Street expects and what $SOFI actually delivers. Meanwhile, the stock is down roughly 43% from its highs, despite the business continuing to strengthen: • 1M+ new members added in Q2 • Record deposits • Record loan originations • 40%+ top-line growth • Improving profitability • New partnerships with Kraken a

But what if this cycle is different? 🔥 2. The margins are insane AI-driven HBM demand has completely changed the economics of memory.

I took a position in $Rocket Lab USA, Inc.(RKLB)$ at $64.30 last Friday.
