$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ shocked the market with its Q2 earnings report released on July 30th after-hours, as the blowing up of its main business (advertising revenue +21.5% against the trend, operating profit +38%) far exceeded the expectations, and the raising of the lower end of the Capex ($66B-$72B vs. previous $64B-$72B) boosted the market sentiment for AIMETA's after-hours surge was 12%, as the company raised its guidance for the next quarter ($47.5B-$50.5B vs. previous $46.3B), boosting AI sentiment.One of the key reasons for META's surge is that the market was previously worried about it (e.g., tariffs, EU antitrust, AI grabbing, corporate culture revelations, etc.), while the market's Q2 earnings expectations were relatively conserva
$Uber(UBER)$ 🚕📊🧠 Uber’s robotaxi gamble: revolution or revenue trap? 🧠📊🚕 I’m confident in my long position as Uber transforms into a mobility superpower. The company just generated $2.3B in free cash flow and is guiding EBIT margins to 14% by Jun26, up from –12% in Sep21. UBS just raised its target to $115, reinforcing the bullish case. I’m impressed by Uber’s convergence of real earnings power and visionary scale. Q3 2025 EPS is forecast at $2.88, more than double last year’s $1.24. CEO Khosrowshahi’s conviction is clear: “AV technology is the single greatest opportunity ahead for Uber.” With Waymo and Lucid in the fold, Uber doesn’t need to be vertically integrated to scale; just smartly partnered. Technicals show $87.43 price with $90.93 resist
ETF Inflows, Shrinking Supply: Bitcoin’s Pressure Cooker Moment
The iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) has surged nearly 75% in the past year, keeping pace with Bitcoin’s own climb past $120,000. That might seem like a late entry point — but I believe the real story isn’t about past returns. It’s about what happens when accelerating demand meets a structurally shrinking supply. We’re not just witnessing a rally. We’re watching a capital bridge form between legacy finance and digital assets. Scarcity meets demand. Something’s building beneath the surface Institutional-Grade Access Without the Hassle IBIT has become the leading spot Bitcoin ETF, offering regulated, transparent exposure to BTC without the friction of cold wallets or exchange risk. It now manages over $87 billion in assets, with more than 39 million shares trading daily. Its net asset value
Coinbase (COIN) Earnings To Watch Trading Volume and Subscription and Services Revenue Growth
$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$ is scheduled to release its Q2 2025 financial results on Thursday, 31 July 2025, after the market closes. Earnings per Share (EPS): Analysts project an adjusted EPS between $0.82 and $0.91, representing a potential year-over-year decline. However, Coinbase has a history of beating or meeting EPS estimates, so a beat could be a catalyst for the stock. Revenue: The consensus revenue forecast is between $1.51 billion and $1.68 billion, which would mark a year-over-year increase. Coinbase (COIN) Fiscal Q1 2025 Earnings Summary In its fiscal Q1 2025 report, Coinbase delivered a mixed bag of results. The company beat analyst expectations on adjusted earnings per share (EPS), reporting $1.94, which was higher than the Zacks
🌟🌟🌟SoFi $SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$ has just made waves with an eye popping USD 1.5 billion equity raise, selling g 71.9 million shares at USD 20.85 plus another 10.8 million optional shares. The result? A 6% to 7% dilution, an 8% pre market drop and a fair amount of angst among existing shareholders. But behind the selloff lies a strategy that is bold, calculated and potentially transformative. What Investors Should Know About the Dilution Dilution Impact : More shares mean that each existing share represents a smaller slice of the company. EPS may take a hit and short term price pressure is likely - as seen in the 8% premarket drop following the announcement. Why Is It Ha
I have been reviewing the earnings expectations for both Microsoft and Meta, and the projected 14 percent year-over-year growth in both revenue and earnings for Microsoft is impressive. With consensus earnings per share at 3.38 dollars and revenue estimates at 73.81 billion dollars, I see a strong case for potential upside. This growth, driven by artificial intelligence, makes me consider Microsoft a solid contender. On the other hand, Meta's anticipated 14 percent year-over-year growth in profits and sales also catches my attention. The consensus earnings per share of 5.86 dollars and revenue estimates of 44.79 billion dollars suggest a robust performance. I find Meta's focus on AI and its diverse revenue streams, including advertising, to be promising factors that could lead to a strong
$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$ 🚀🪙🔒 Coinbase: Cup, Clarity, and $4.4M Conviction 🔒🪙🚀 I’m extremely confident Coinbase is approaching a moment of structural transformation. After years of volatility and regulatory headwinds, $COIN is now retesting its original IPO breakout zone with renewed strength, broader institutional alignment, and market validation from both options flow and macro catalysts. I believe the most important chart right now is the long-term daily cup formation. Price has returned to the $370–$430 range, precisely where it first listed. That curved base isn’t just a pattern; it’s a multi-year sentiment recovery. Price has coiled and climbed for over two years and is now confronting prior highs with volume and velocity. This is a rete
$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$$Microsoft(MSFT)$ 🎯 Iron Condors and Asymmetry: My Strategic Meta + Microsoft Earnings Play I’m fully convinced this earnings season isn’t about picking the strongest company; it’s about navigating the market’s emotional minefield. Goldman Sachs described the setup perfectly: negative asymmetry. Strong results barely move the needle. But the smallest miss? Cue the 13% plunge like Texas Instruments. Even Netflix and ASML were punished harshly. Meanwhile, Goldman’s speculative trading index is hovering near record highs, retail is back, and the options market is inflated with pre-earnings IV. That’s exactly why I’m leaning into Iron Condors on Meta and Microsoft. I’m not here to
$Rocket Lab USA, Inc.(RKLB)$ 🚀📡🪐 Rocket Lab’s golden hour: can $RKLB transmit liftoff to investors? 🪐📡🚀 I’m extremely bullish on Rocket Lab’s strategic positioning and execution velocity. The closer I study the fundamentals, technicals, and upcoming catalysts, the clearer it becomes: this isn’t just a space launch company. Rocket Lab is building the communications backbone for Mars exploration, with vertical integration, operational credibility, and first-mover advantage in segments even NASA hasn’t nailed. Yet, I’m not chasing price here. I need the compression to resolve; either a clean breakout above $49.29 or a calculated fade toward support at $40.32–$38.31. This setup is all about control, not emotion. I’m impressed by the convergence of cha

Hollywood Fiction. In Hollywood “Underworld” movie franchise, vampires and werewolves shared a common origin through the Corvinus bloodline. Alexander Corvinus, a 5th-century warlord whose unique genetic mutation, known as the Corvinus Strain, made him immortal and passed this to his twin sons: Marcus Corvinus, who became the first vampire after being bitten by a rabid bat. William Corvinus, who became the first werewolf after being bitten by a wolf. Vampire & Werewolf of Oil Industry. The same could be said about $Exxon Mobil(XOM)$ and $Chevron(CVX)$. The link between Exxon and Chevron lies primarily in their shared heritage as descendants of the original Standard Oil. The conglomerate formed by John D
