While some investors might view $Walt Disney(DIS)$  ’s recent earnings report as a sign of a resurgent company, I remain unconvinced. Beneath the surface of "streaming profitability" lies a narrative of a company struggling to adapt to a changing entertainment industry. Let's face it, Disney+ isn't for everyone. The content library, heavily tilted towards Marvel and Star Wars franchises, caters to a specific audience. Subscriber growth of a mere 6% reflects this limitation. This is particularly concerning when you consider that many Disney+ subscribers likely also subscribe to Netflix, further diminishing their long-term growth potential. To truly thrive in the competitive streaming wars, Disney needs a broader

The recent Fed meeting, while lacking the immediate rate cuts some were hoping for, has planted a seed of optimism for small-cap investors like myself who are bullish on small-cap stocks. Chairman Powell's acknowledgement of the possibility of a future rate pivot is a significant development. The Federal Reserve is data-driven, and with inflation seemingly peaking, a shift towards lower interest rates is a distinct possibility in the coming months. This is music to the ears of small-cap investors. Historically, smaller companies tend to outperform their large-cap counterparts in low-rate environments. This is because they typically rely more on access to credit to fuel growth. With borrowing costs potentially falling soon, the nimbleness and innovation often found within small businesses c

The recent conclusion of Google's antitrust trial has sent shivers down the spines of Silicon Valley giants, but as a long-term investor in$Alphabet(GOOG)$  , I see reasons to remain optimistic amidst the uncertainty. While the government's case against Google's alleged search and search advertising monopoly is serious, it's undeniable that Google has achieved its market dominance through a superior product and constant innovation. Their search engine remains the go-to choice for billions, and their advertising platform connects businesses with consumers effectively. The broader implications of this case for tech giants like$Apple(AAPL)$ &

With $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$  set to report earnings after the market closes today, the air crackles with anticipation. The recent price consolidation around the $20-$25 range feels like a coiled spring, and a positive earnings report could be the catalyst for a significant bullish breakout. The broader market might be experiencing turbulence, but Palantir appears to be charting its own course. Analysts still project a robust 15% revenue growth for the company in 2024. This ability to deliver consistent growth, even amidst market volatility, is a major reason for my optimism. PLTR Q1'24 Estimates Palantir is shedding its image as solely a government contractor. Sure, their dominance in securing contr

$Marathon Digital Holdings Inc(MARA)$ latest production report is a mixed bag, but for a long-term investor like myself, the positives outweigh the short-term dip in monthly production. Here's why I remain bullish on MARA. While April's production dipped slightly compared to March, it still represents a 21% year-over-year increase. This growth is impressive, especially considering the recent Bitcoin halving event that inherently reduces miner rewards. Marathon managed to increase its average operational hash rate by 15% in April. This translates to a more efficient mining operation, squeezing out more production per unit of energy consumed. Another bright spot is the surge in transaction fees as a percentage of total revenue. This indicates increa

$Block(SQ)$'s recent earnings report was a breath of fresh air, exceeding analyst expectations and sending the stock price soaring in after-hours trading. As an trader who thrives on opportunity, I saw the pre-earnings dip triggered by the federal probe as a potential buying opportunity, and thankfully, my gamble paid off with my $SQ 20240503 74.0 CALL$. Block's first-quarter results were impressive across the board. They not only surpassed analysts' estimates on both EPS and revenue, but also showcased significant year-over-year growth in gross profit, particularly within their Cash App business. This financial strength is a major reason for my bullish stance on the company. The c

$SHELL PLC(RYDAF)$'s recent earnings report has me cautiously optimistic about the oil giant's future. While the headline numbers showed a year-over-year decline, they still managed to beat analyst expectations by a significant margin. This, combined with a potential technical breakout on the charts, paints an interesting picture. The adjusted earnings of $7.7 billion surpassed analyst predictions, demonstrating Shell's ability to navigate the current market environment. The company's financial health is further bolstered by a decrease in net debt and the announcement of a $3.5 billion share buyback program. This commitment to rewarding shareholders is a positive sign for investors. SHEL Daily Chart Technically, the chart hints at a possible bull

As an investor with a keen eye on the fitness industry, $Peloton Interactive, Inc.(PTON)$'s recent news has me hitting the pause button. CEO Barry McCarthy's departure, coupled with staff layoffs and a restructuring plan, throws a wrench into the company's future trajectory. While the stock initially reacted positively pre-market, the price has since fallen back into a tightening consolidation pattern – a falling wedge on the chart. PTON Weekly Chart This falling wedge pattern, characterized by lower highs and lower lows, had me cautiously optimistic about a potential breakout. The pre-market jump in price after earnings seemed to confirm this, but the subsequent fall back raises concerns. It's unclear whether this was a failed breakout or a retes

The tech industry, represented by $Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLK)$, is a thrilling landscape filled with innovation and disruption. But for every exciting new startup, there are countless forgotten also-rans. In this sea of change, $Microsoft(MSFT)$ stands out as a reliable and dependable giant. That's precisely why it occupies a prominent position in my investment portfolio, and one I continue to confidently build upon through Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA). Unlike some tech companies whose growth resembles a sugar-high roller coaster, Microsoft boasts a long and steady track record of delivering reliable gains. This predictability is music to the ears of long-term investors like myself. Even amid

Looking Beyond the Recent Pullback Amazon's recent earnings report solidified my long-term bullish stance on the company. While the broader market experienced a pullback in mid-April, Amazon not only beat analyst expectations on both revenue and profit, but also showcased impressive growth across key segments like AWS and advertising. This resilience in the face of rising interest rates makes me even more confident in Amazon's future potential. Profitability Powerhouse Amazon not only surpassed expectations on both revenue and earnings, but its operating income soared over 200% year-over-year. This tells a more profound story than just top-line growth. It signifies the effectiveness of CEO Andy Jassy's focus on streamlining operations and squeezing out inefficiencies. This newfound cost d
