Congress Is Quietly Dumping Pepsi — Should You Follow Their Lead or Go Against the Grain?
$Pepsi(PEP)$ It was a tough end to the trading week, with a broad sell-off taking hold across nearly all major sectors on Friday. That red streak wasn’t isolated either—when you zoom out and look at the performance across the last five trading sessions, the trend remains firmly negative. Investor sentiment has been deteriorating, and volatility is creeping back in. But here’s the thing: while the last week or two might look bleak, the broader picture tells a more nuanced story. Over the past few months, many individual names across sectors like tech, industrials, and even parts of consumer staples have posted surprisingly strong returns. Some are up well into the double digits since the start of spring, thanks in part to improving earnings reports,
Alphabet Stock Outlook: A Comprehensive Long-Term Forecast Through 2030
$Alphabet(GOOG)$ Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL), the parent company of Google and a titan of the tech industry, has had a turbulent start to 2025.

This article aims to do just that by presenting an in-depth forecast for Alphabet’s stock price through 2030, backed by detailed data, assumptions, and scenario analysis to help you understand where the stock might be h
I’ve had my eye on $Extreme Networks(EXTR)$ and believe it’s one of the most interesting U.S. stocks to watch right now. EXTR scores higher than 96% of all stocks based on IBD’s SmartSelect—a combination of fundamental and technical strength. That puts it in elite company, signaling well-rounded performance. The company also reported a robust +35% year-over-year revenue increase in Q3, marking its fourth consecutive quarter of acceleration. That’s a clear indicator of strong underlying business momentum. Within the Computer-Networking sector, EXTR ranks first—outpacing peers like $Cisco(CSCO)$ and $Radware(RDWR)$. That dominance tells me the market is beginning t

$DLocal Limited(DLO)$ is a 10x opportunity everybody ignores.Transaction volume is skyrocketing, margins are stabilizing, and it's rapidly expanding into new markets.Here is my full investment thesis: 🧵2/ DLocal is a payment service provider that brings together many payment methods.In developed countries, credit cards are the preferred payment method; in emerging markets, credit card penetration remains low.This puts a drag on digital payments.DLO solves this problem:3/ DLocal integrates with local payment service providers.This way, a merchant can accept Pix payments from Brazil, OXXO from Mexico, and Pago Efectivo from Ecuador, and many other methods through one API.This way, merchants can effortlessly sell in many emerging markets.Image4/ It ra

Battle of the Silicon Behemoths: Amazon vs Alphabet in the AI Infrastructure Arms Race
The Real AI Arms Race Isn’t Flashy—It’s Infrastructure When people talk about artificial intelligence, the conversation often drifts to chatbots and sci-fi headlines—but the real battleground is buried in data centres and silicon. This is where Amazon and Alphabet are quietly (and expensively) fighting to become the backbone of AI’s future. Both firms have the vision, the capital, and the compute muscle—but they’re playing different games to win. The real AI war is waged in cloud infrastructure grids At first glance, Amazon looks like the obvious front-runner. It’s planning to deploy a staggering $100 billion in capital expenditures this year, with most of it going toward Amazon Web Services (AWS). That figure alone would make most CFOs break into hives, but for Amazon it’s a strategic wag

HCA Healthcare (HCA) Stock Analysis: A Deep Dive Into Valuation, Growth, and Buyback Impact
$Hca Healthcare Inc(HCA)$ Today, we’re diving into a stock that came in as a viewer request—HCA Healthcare Inc., ticker symbol HCA.

$Bitcoin(BTC.USD.HKCC)$ Bitcoin is showing serious signs of life. After spending over 7 months coiled under the massive 109K resistance zone, today’s price action could be the spark that ignites the next leg higher. We’re finally seeing BTC wake up with dips under 100k being bought up fast. A clean hold above 109K opens the door for a swift push toward 130K and it’s not just a crypto story. A move like that would be a broader signal of risk-on appetite returning to markets, potentially dragging $SPX and other equities into new all-time highs.Macro Tailwinds:Pro-Crypto Policy Shift: With election momentum building, the Trump campaign continues voicing clear pro-crypto policies.

Apple Stock Analysis 2025: Navigating Recent Setbacks Amid Long-Term Strength
