LeMaitre Vascular (LMAT) dipped after a near-term earnings disappointment, yet the company sits on a capital structure and margin momentum that should accelerate M&A-driven growth.

SK hynix is the memory supplier best positioned to ride the AI-driven HBM supercycle. At roughly $1.34T market cap and a P/E near 12x, the shares offer asymmetric upside if HBM pricing and share gain continue — but the trade needs a clear stop and a readiness for cyclical swings.

With trailing EPS of $6.57, free cash flow of $5.31B and an EV/EBITDA of ~4.9x, the company looks positioned to convert disciplined industry capex into higher FCF per share and shareholder returns. This trade targets a move back toward the 52-week high as fundam…
OpenText (OTEX) looks deeply discounted on headline multiples (P/E ~8.4, EV/EBITDA ~5.6) but carries material leverage that keeps the equity valuation depressed. Free cash flow of ~$807.5M, a near-5% dividend yield and ongoing portfolio pruning give a constructive setup. This trade is a long with a $22.40 entry, $19.75 stop and $30.00 target, over …
Alibaba trades at $107.73 with a $268.9B market cap, attractive relative multiples, and material upside if the market revalues the firm's Ant Group holding. Heavy AI-related capex and regulatory overhang have compressed near-term cash flow, but Cloud momentum and the potential crystallization of Ant's value justify a mid-term long trade with a $125…
United Rentals (URI) is trading below recent highs after a strong 2026. The company's scale, diversified end markets and healthy free cash flow make a tactical long attractive here.

Trade plan below lays out entry, stop and a 4…
