More share repurchases

While not the most exciting company news, I do like how the company is balancing returning money to shareholders with investing in new properties and expanding the brand. While I have no issue with the repurchase, I'll be watching this for the... — read more

Revenue is approximately $3.72 billion, up 38 percent from $2.69 billion a year earlier. Net income attributable to common stockholders went up 41 percent to $396.6 million, while diluted EPS grew 32 percent to $0.54. All in all, I'm happy with the... — read more 

Under $230

I'm not worried yet, since I bought dip, but I'm keeping an eye on it. Everybody should be doing the same.

$20 billion equity and bond offering

Who's the genius who thought this would be a great idea at this particular moment? Now the stock is plummeting to nobody's surprise. I really can't with this place anymore, I swear.

Dell keeps dropping

More than 13 percent in five days. I don't like what I'm seeing. Yes, I know this is not the first nor will it be the last dip, but something feels different this time. Let's hope my gut is wrong and Dell rebounds despite Intel CEO's attempts to... — read more 

Downgrades are piling up

Wells Fargo just cut Adobe to Underweight last week, and HSBC downgraded it to Hold before that. The stock is around $250, well below where it was, and the people whose job it is to watch this stuff are losing confidence. I hold a small position and... — read more 

7,000 cuts are coming

P&G said this week it's cutting 7,000 jobs over the next two years, mostly non-manufacturing roles. That's about 15% of their office staff. The CFO said it straight - this doesn't remove the near-term challenges they're facing. Translation: things... — read more 

What’s the real deal with this stock?

Qualcomm dropped 11% on Friday. Phone chips are getting squeezed and Apple is pulling back faster than expected. But then there's the data center stuff they keep teasing, the custom chip deals, the Amazon partnership. So is this a phone company... — read more 

Great, a new board member. That'll fix everything.

Kohl's stock went up 11% in a day last week because some analyst upgraded it on "improving holiday outlook." Then they announced a new board member from Hershey. The stock is still lingering around $24, nowhere near where it was a year ago. A board... — read more 

NGL

NGL is most likely the best in the industry right now, and that's an impressive achievement, frankly.

MMM

Should MMM even be sold at this price right now? This is a bit of a tricky situation here, not gonna lie...

MITT

MITT has a great performance here honestly. I'm pretty impressed by it and I look forward to see what's more in store for them.

Great results!

I love it when I'm checking out a company's results and it's one good news after another for the most part. Earnings per share at $1.69, beating Wall Street consensus estimates, with revenue topping expectations by over $600 million to reach $22.9... — read more 

Another drop in share price

And it's all about the backlog. Boeing is getting plenty of orders these days, including for the 737 Max 10 model, but the company seems unable to keep up. The backlog increased by almost $30 billion in the last quarter and it'll keep growing. We... — read more 

Looking good

The stock keeps climbing and it's forecast to keep going. There was a time my faith in TDC was shaken, but I think those days are over. The company has been making positive changes and it's being reflected in the stock price. Not my first choice, but... — read more 

Looking at the one year graph makes my stomach drop

Almost as much as the stock keeps falling. Just when I think we're on the right path, here comes another drop. Add Elon Musk and his latest plans into the mix, and I think I might be looking to unload this. I'll wait a bit longer, but it looks like... — read more 

KDMN

Just a heads up but this is not a publicly traded company anymore so you might as well look elsewhere for your portfolio additions.

Selling at this price..?

Would it be wise to sell at this price, right now? KAI is great but I'm not sure how to proceed right now.

Abysmal

Why is EGRX performing so abysmally these days? What went wrong in the short span of a few months? What the he-l is going on?

Will Micron drop further?

I've been watching Micron lately, and I'm wondering if it's a good time to buy or if there's more downside ahead. The stock is already down around 30% from its highs, but it's still up over 200% this year. AI demand looks strong, and the forward P/E... — read more 

Humana looks like a good buy, but I'm not so sure

've been looking at Humana, and I'm pretty torn. The stock is up around 66% this year, and the improved Medicare star ratings are definitely good news. But a few things worry me. Humana is already spending over 91% of premiums on medical costs, so... — read more 

KFC just dumped them for Coke and I'm not shocked

PepsiCo lost KFC to Coca-Cola last week. Nearly four decades of partnership gone. The stock dropped to a 52-week low on the news. Then they scrambled to announce the Taco Bell extension, which is fine, but it feels like a consolation prize. If your... — read more 

The debt is the whole story now

Oracle's credit default swaps just hit levels you normally see in junk bonds. The cost to insure their debt against default is up almost 300% in a year, and their bonds are trading like the company is already in trouble, even though the official... — read more 

They're buying growth instead of building it

Pfizer just closed its acquisition of Metsera, a weight-loss dr-g company, for roughly $7 billion. That's on top of the cost-cutting. So they're laying people off to save money while writing billion-dollar checks for pipeline. The patent cliff is... — read more 

The chips are sitting in warehouses

Nvidia keeps selling chips, but the places that are supposed to run them are not ready. Amazon is buying billions worth of Nvidia hardware and just storing it in warehouses because the data centers do not have enough power to turn the stuff on. That... — read more 

The sale didn't work

Target's big Circle Days promotion fell flat. App downloads didn't even reach last year's levels, and it overlapped with Amazon's Prime event, so everyone just went there instead. The stock dropped after that. If a discount event can't get people... — read more 

This is a good stock

The performance is through the roof. It's definitely the best one right now in the industry. Go for it, I say.

What's going on with Mattel's profits?

Mattel's selling more toys but somehow making less money. What's eating into their profits? You guys think management can fix this, or is MAT just not worth the trouble?

Are GM's buybacks actually worth it?

GM keeps spending billions buying back its own stock, but I'm wondering if that's really the best use of the money. Sure, fewer shares can boost EPS, but wouldn't it make more sense to invest in growth, improve the EV business, or pay down debt? Or... — read more 

They just can't stop spending

The stock dropped after earnings again. Not because the business is bad, but because they are telling everyone they're going to spend even more next year. Every time you think the number can't get bigger, it does. This isn’t an investment, it’s a... — read more 

Nine straight days of red. Why?

Applied Materials just had its longest losing streak since 2012. Nine sessions in a row, down about 22%. The company held its big investor day, announced a massive new R&D center, and told everyone AI demand is going to be huge through 2030. Then the... — read more 

Finally some good news

Salesforce jumped last week after Bank of America upgraded it straight to buy. The stock went from around 229 to 234. Sounds great, right? But it's still down for the year, and the layoffs keep coming. Another round hit in early October. It's all... — read more 

EGBN

Old reliable, as I like to call it. EGBN is definitely something everyone should have on their portfolio as they are always consistently good in what they do.

Delisted

Garrison has been delisted for a while now. It was never a good stock to begin with so there was not a huge loss here in any case.

Hard pass

Garmin has been disappointing this year. The numbers do not add up and the general performance is so lackluster that I fail to see why anyone should invest in them. Pass.

GTX

This might be the perfect time to sell and go about your business. GTX has served its purpose and there's nothing else you could do here.

3 Reasons to Buy Intel Stock Before 2027

Intel has beaten its own guidance for seven straight quarters, with second-quarter revenue up 25%. Demand for its CPUs continues to outrun supply as AI moves into inference and agentic workloads. Intel Foundry losses are narrowing, with... — read more 

Citi is currently undervalued

There seems to be an agreement among analysts that the company's transformation might bump its stock by up to a whopping 30 percent, which means this is the right time to buy. I have to admit, I'm buying into the hype and I plan to do some serious... — read more 

Not my top choice

What can I say, I like established companies in the all-encompassing data center infrastructure field, not the ones only starting to expand their offerings now. Plus, the stock has been really erratic, and is nowhere near it's June high of $50. A... — read more 

I don't like the AI push

It's annoying how few people realize and accept that AI bubble is bound to burst. It might happen really soon, it might happen soon, or somewhere later down the line, but it will happen. The more companies lean into AI, the more risk they're taking... — read more 

Is every retailer in trouble now?

Costco just posted a 13% jump in September sales, but once you strip out gas price inflation, the real growth is closer to 7.6%. The gas is doing a lot of heavy lifting, and gas margins are thinner than the rest of the business anyway. So the... — read more 

Why is HAL down again?

Halliburton dropped from $33 to $32.55 this week. They just announced they won't work on the Sea Lion project in Argentina, which is probably a good thing since it avoids legal trouble, but the stock slid anyway. Earnings are coming October 20. The... — read more 

The Huawei deal makes no sense

For twenty years, Huawei paid Qualcomm. Now it's reversed. Qualcomm agreed to license Huawei's LogicFolding chip tech and buy some of their patents, all while Huawei brags that its total licensing haul will top $6.9 billion after this deal... — read more
