NewtekOne, Inc. revised its earnings per share guidance upward for 2026 and 2027, reflecting a strategic shift to hold more guaranteed portions of SBA 7(a) loans on its balance sheet. This shift results in net interest income (NII) growing faster than noninterest income and becoming a larger component of total revenue. The company credits its 2023 …
VEPPANU's FDA approval and positive VERITAC-2 data materially derisks Arvinas' platform story. With a market cap near $600M and an EV of roughly $510M, Arvinas is priced like a small commercial-stage biotech but still carries development optionality (ARV-102 for LRRK2). I like the risk/reward from $9.24 with a 180-trading-day target of $16, provide…
Flotek (FTK) lost a major Puerto Rico contract, triggering litigation and heavy shorting, but the parts of the business that produce recurring revenue and margin expansion continue to grow.

The stock has been propelled by record copper prices and long-term demand drivers, while recent earnings beat and management cash flow guidance support the bull case. However, valuation metrics, compressed margins, rising c…
Walmart has reached a settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice over allegations that its pharmacies unlawfully dispensed controlled substances, resolving a high-profile civil case brought in 2020. Terms of the agreement have not been made public. The litigation, one of the largest government actions against a single company in connection with…
Alphabet is well positioned to lead in AGI because it owns critical assets — massive datacenters, custom silicon, DeepMind/Gemini IP and an advertising engine to monetize breakthroughs. Heavy, targeted CapEx is a deliberate strategy to secure compute advantage; this trade buys a pullback while accepting short-term earnings pressure for a multi-quar…
President Donald Trump said he is preparing a legal order to enable farmers and ranchers to process their own food, aiming to break what he described as a "nasty monopoly" among the country's largest processors.

BioNTech maintains a strong …

The company’s $60 billion capital plan through 2030, a ~3.0% yield, and a reasonable valuation (market cap ~$48.2B; P/E ~21x) create an asymmetric risk-reward for …
ExlService is repositioning from a services-focused IT vendor into a higher-margin data and analytics compounder. With $275M in free cash flow, a 28.9% return on equity and recent product wins in GenAI and life-insurance automation, the stock looks mispriced relative to its cash generation and growth trajectory. This trade targets a re-rating-drive…
TeraWulf's pivot from spot-bitcoin mining to long-term AI hosting is real revenue re-rating fuel. A 20-year, $19 billion Anthropic lease and a 401 MW Kentucky campus materially raise revenue visibility; the stock trades well below its 52-week high and carries heavy short interest. This trade targets a sustained recovery as capacity ramps and AI hos…

Canada's economy expanded at an annualized 3.3% rate in the second quarter, data show, reversing an earlier weak start to the year after Statistics Canada revised first-quarter output to a 0.3% gain.

Fundamentals still command a premium - market cap ≈ $98.7B, P/E ~48, thin free cash flow relative to valuation - so I prefer to wait for a measured entry. Trade plan given below balanc…
