$MU Earnings: The Numbers Are Huge. The Real Story Is Supply.
$Micron Technology(MU)$ just delivered another record quarter — but the most interesting part of the report may not be the headline EPS beat. Micron reported $54.23 billion in fiscal Q4 revenue, up from $41.46 billion in the previous quarter and $11.32 billion a year ago. Non-GAAP EPS came in at $33.42, while non-GAAP gross margin reached 87.0%.  Those are extraordinary numbers. But then Micron raised the bar again. For fiscal Q1 2027, the company is guiding for $61.5 billion ± $1.5 billion in revenue and $38.15 ± $1.00 in non-GAAP EPS, with non-GAAP gross margin expected around 86.25%.  The bigger takeaway is what this says about the memory market. Memory is becoming a bottleneck AI infrastructure isn’t only about GPUs. Every new
$GameStop(GME)$ is back on my radar — and this time, it’s not just because of the meme-stock history. The interesting part is what’s happening behind the ticker. CEO Ryan Cohen just bought another 450,000 GameStop shares for about US$10.6 million on the open market, at an average price around $23.48. That came after additional large purchases earlier in September.  That makes the insider activity hard to ignore. Cohen now beneficially owns roughly 8.8% of GameStop, including warrants.  What makes GME interesting to me isn’t simply “CEO buying = stock goes up.” It’s the size and frequency of the purchases. The market has seen plenty of insider transactions, but repeatedly putting tens of millions of personal capital into the same compan
$900 a share. A $12.2 trillion valuation. That’s the number Citi is putting on the table for $SpaceX(SPCX)$ if its long-term Starship and space-infrastructure vision plays out. Sounds crazy? Maybe. But the interesting part is what has to happen for SpaceX to get there. Starship’s latest flight marked another important step. The massive rocket reached orbit and deployed 26 Starlink V3 satellites, giving SpaceX another demonstration of how Starship could eventually support a much larger space-based network. And that’s where the valuation story gets bigger than rockets. Citi’s thesis is essentially that SpaceX could become a platform for several huge businesses: 🚀 Reusable launch infrastructure 📡 A much larger Starlink network 🤖 AI infrastructur
📈 THE INVESTING SKILL NOBODY TALKS ABOUT ENOUGH: DOING NOTHING
Markets make it incredibly easy to feel like you should always be doing something. Buy the dip. Sell the rally. Rotate into the next hot sector. Catch the breakout. Move into cash before the next correction. Then repeat. But sometimes the hardest decision an investor can make is doing absolutely nothing. A stock falls 5% and suddenly the thesis feels broken. A stock rises 20% and suddenly it feels like you’re missing out. The market hits a new high and investors start looking for the next crash. The market falls sharply and everyone starts talking about recession. Noise creates urgency — and urgency can lead to decisions that weren’t part of the original plan. One thing I’ve been thinking about lately is the difference between price movement and fundamental change. A stock falling doesn’t
AVGO: $16.7B AI Revenue — But Can Margins Keep Up?
$Broadcom(AVGO)$ AI business is getting too big to ignore. AI semiconductor revenue reached $16.7B in Q3, up an incredible 221% YoY and 54% sequentially. Broadcom expects another jump to $21.7B in Q4, up 236% YoY.  But here’s the part I’m watching more closely: Margins. Broadcom’s overall gross margin fell 210 basis points sequentially to 75%, partly because AI semiconductors are becoming a much larger part of the business. AI revenue now represents 56% of total revenue, compared with 49% in Q2.  At first glance, that sounds like a problem. But operating margin tells a different story. It actually increased to 67.9%, up 240 basis points YoY, while non-GAAP EPS nearly doubled to $3.32. So the debate isn’t really whether Broadcom can grow revenue.
$Rocket Lab USA, Inc.(RKLB)$ just gave investors another reason to watch the space sector. The company has signed its largest-ever commercial Electron launch contract: 20 additional missions for Japanese Earth-observation company Synspective, scheduled between 2028 and 2031. The deal brings Synspective’s total contracted Electron missions to 47 and pushes Rocket Lab’s overall launch backlog above 100 missions.  That’s the part I find interesting. Space stocks are often valued on what they might accomplish years from now. Rocket Lab is increasingly showing actual commercial demand today. The company isn’t just launching rockets. It is building a broader space business covering launch services, satellites, components and national-s
The AI boom needs something that doesn’t get nearly as much attention as GPUs: Electricity. Lots of it. $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ just signed a 20-year power agreement with $Constellation Energy Corp(CEG)$ that could help expand the Calvert Cliffs nuclear plant in Maryland. And this isn’t just another corporate electricity contract. Amazon will support more than $3 billion of investment at the facility, including improvements across the existing 1,790 MW plant and approximately 190 MW of additional generating capacity expected to come online between 2030 and 2032.  The agreement covers 690 MW of power, including the new capacity. Why does this matter? Because the biggest bottleneck in the n
👟 NKE: THE COMEBACK TRADE NOBODY WANTS TO TALK ABOUT?
One stock I’m watching is $Nike(NKE)$ . The setup is pretty simple: the world’s biggest sportswear brand has been struggling, and the market has become increasingly impatient. Nike reports fiscal Q1 earnings on October 1, with consensus around $0.44 EPS and $11.3B revenue.  But the interesting part isn’t the earnings estimate. It’s whether Nike can finally show signs that the turnaround is working. 👟 China is the big question. Greater China sales fell 17% on a constant-currency basis in Nike’s most recent quarter, making the region one of the biggest problems management needs to address.  🇺🇸 Then there’s North America. Wholesale revenue has been growing, but that hasn’t translated into overall sales growth. That raises an uncomfortable
$SpaceX(SPCX)$ 🚀 is known for rockets, Starlink and the ambition to reach Mars. But the part of the business catching my attention right now is much closer to Earth: AI compute. Anthropic’s IPO filing has revealed that its agreements with SpaceX could be worth as much as $84.5 billion through 2029, for access to Nvidia-based computing capacity. That is almost double the roughly $45 billion figure previously disclosed by SpaceX.  The important word here is “could.” These agreements can generally be cancelled with 90 days’ notice, so I wouldn’t treat the full $84.5 billion as guaranteed revenue. But the size of the potential commitment still says something important. AI companies are desperate for compute. Anthropic expects to spend at least $518 b
🔥 STOCK OF THE DAY: $CRM — Can Agentforce Become Salesforce’s Next Growth Engine
I’m putting Salesforce ($CRM) on my watchlist today. 👀 The reason isn’t simply that AI is hot. I’m watching to see whether Salesforce can actually turn AI adoption into measurable revenue growth. Agentforce is the key piece of the story. Salesforce already has a huge installed base of enterprise customers, so if companies start paying more to add AI agents into their existing workflows, Salesforce could potentially monetize AI without having to build an entirely new customer base. That’s what makes the setup interesting to me: 📌 AI agents → potentially higher software consumption 📌 Enterprise customers → existing distribution advantage 📌 Agentforce adoption → key proof point for the bull case 📌 Recurring revenue model → potentially more predictable monetization But there’s also a big quest
