I agree, you don't expect to see these low margins at a company that is vital for the AI boom. But you should take in mind the full picture.

Summary: Long FLNC; defends low margins as structural, bullish on improving margin trajectory via high-margin IQ subscriptions and growing market share.

See a lot of questions regarding the $FLNC margins.

I agree, you don’t expect to see these low margins at a company that is vital for the AI boom. But you should take in mind the full picture.

1. Fluence is a project-based company. They don’t really have a standard product, their batteries need to be integrated in the architecture of the end-customer. This makes that they need to engineer based on the customer needs.

The gross profit margin on such projects are always lower because the amount of direct labor is higher. This direct labor is put in the costs of goods sold and not in the overhead costs. Cogs influence your gp margin, overhead costs don’t.

2. Fluence chooses to put their hardware in the field cheaper to catch as much market share as possible. On their batteries, customers can activate Fluence IQ. For example, the AI model predicts electricity prices and uses the battery accordingly. This is the main advantage of Fluence.

The margins on these subscriptions (Fluence Mosaic or Fluence Nispera) are way higher than any battery manufacturer can accomplish. So the more units in the field, the better the margins will become.

I’ve been following Fluence for a couple of quarters now and the management has been open and honest about the margins. They were bad in Q4 25’ but promised to improve in Q1 26’ and delivered. I like the go-to market strategy and the hyperscaler reference should help improve the margins as well.

No financial advice and do your own research.

Just listened to the earnings call from $FLNC and decided to add to my position at $16.67.

The earnings were spectacular in my opinion. Yes, they missed revenues due to a delayed shipment of $80 million, but the backlog keeps rising and Fluence management is confident they can https://t.co/bKItxbRMtI

$MRVL to new ATH's. Great company with a lot of tailwinds.

Summary: Long MRVL to new all-time highs; great company with significant tailwinds.

$MRVL to new ATH’s. Looks like I bought it just before they rocketed.

Great company with a lot of tailwinds. My thesis below 👇 https://t.co/uUAtgPrwaf

I decided to take a position in $MRVL last Monday. I started the position at $88.66.

Here is my investment thesis

With AI models now having trillions of parameters, the limiting factor in compute performance is no longer the GPU itself, but the network required to synchronize https://t.co/QwPreencwU


Planet has the images since 2017, they are able to give customers immediate access to their platform to see the evolution... Planet can use their $730 million cash pile (and even more after the ATM) to invest in R&D... They are building their own LLM for example. This will open op a way bigger TAM in the commercial sector in my opinion.

Summary: Long PL over SATL long-term: Planet's larger cash pile, historical archive, LLM/AI investments, and Google partnership give it structural advantages SATL cannot match.

Hi Mon, thanks for reading. I did research on SATL couple of months ago so my info can be a bit outdated. But at the moment the P/S of SATL is 53 and that of PL is 34. So, you are expecting higher growth from SATL than for PL.

On a long-term I don't see that happening to be honest. It's difficult to compare as Planet has 15 times the revenue of Satellogic but I think it will be difficult for SATL to compete long-term.

Currently, they may be able to compete. They have the cost advantage and a similar level of quality in terms of resolution. Still, we see Planet win more contracts than SATL. Planet has the images since 2017, they are able to give customers immediate access to their platform to see the evolution. Satellogic does not have this possibility. They don't even have the capacity yet, to image the entire globe.

While SATL has to use their $129 million cash pile to put as much satellites in space to scan the entire globe, Planet can use their $730 million cash pile (and even more after the ATM) to invest in R&D.

They are building their own LLM for example. This will open op a way bigger TAM in the commercial sector in my opinion. You now need experts who need to dig through a pile of images, while the LLM can give the answer to whoever wants an answer. People like us will be able to subscribe to Planet and use the LLM. They are working together with Google on this.

They are utilizing Google's Remote Sensing Foundation Models (RSFM) so that enterprise customers can use natural language to query the Earth directly. Planet is leveraging Generative AI to deliver what they call Agentic Geospatial AI, essentially turning raw pixels into immediate, queryable answers. Satellogic simply doesn't have the compute budget or the historical archive to train large Earth models at this scale.

I don't know where Satellogic stores their data, but here Google and Planet have another collaboration as Planet uses Google cloud to store their images. They pay for it but as Google own a part of Planet, it will be a better deal.

Project suncatcher is another example. Planet will gain a lot of experience from this project and can play a part in bringing datacenters into space. I don't calculate anything in the TAM yet, as this is very early days but it' still a running project.

Where chips are super expensive, how will a smaller company like Satellogic compete on the LLM part of Planet. Will they be able to compete on smaller projects where the customer needs to monitor a very specific area? Yes, I think so. But they are not ideally positioned to capture the growing TAM imo.

@Kaizen_Investor That was a great read. I like how you covered the competitors part.

What do you think about SATL in general? Would you invest in this company? I prefer SATL personally, as I think they have much higher upside. I think the inflection point comes later in the year when they launch


On a long-term I don't see that happening to be honest... I think it will be difficult for SATL to compete long-term... they are not ideally positioned to capture the growing TAM imo

Summary: Bullish ONDS on defense/CUAS execution and balance sheet pivot; bullish OSCR on management discipline shift despite dilution headwinds.

No problem.

$ONDS: 68/100
Ondas management has transitioned from a period of chronic over-promising and severe dilution (2022–2024) to a phase of aggressive operational execution and massive capital accumulation (2025–2026). While historical "Say-Do" gaps in the railroad sector remain a scar on their record, recent success in the defense/CUAS (Counter-UAS) sector and a massive pivot in balance sheet strength indicate a management team that has finally aligned its scale with its ambition.

So $ONDS is bascally punished for failed revenue delivery in 2024 and heavy dilution. But they are on the way up.

$OSCR: 64/100
Oscar Health’s management, under CEO Mark Bertolini, has pivoted from a visionary "growth-at-all-costs" startup to a disciplined insurance operator. While 2025 was a significant "reset" year marked by missed profitability targets and heavy dilution, the current leadership exhibits high accountability and technical clarity. The transition to an "ICHRA-first" strategy and the securing of massive credit facilities indicate a management team moving toward mature capital discipline, though long-term shareholder alignment remains hampered by legacy dilution.

So $OSCR also punished by dillution and missed guidances.

Hope this helps.

@Kaizen_Investor This looks awesome, I don't have pro anything, would you mind running $ONDS or $OSCR


$OSCR also punished by dillution and missed guidances


Summary: Ongoing accumulation of POET below $6; live long position.

@Noobverest I keep buying $POET below $6 as well.

@Kaizen_Investor see MRVL go up so much and $POET being part of their supply chain makes me think theres like a chance it could play out pretty well

My buy-in is at $6, it went up a bit on Friday but if it dips to $6 again or below I might DCA or add to it.


Summary: Bought HIMS ($18.7), OUST ($16.7), POET ($4.9); HIMS called obviously undervalued with pharma sector catch-up thesis.

Drug Manufacturers - Specialty & Generic

To summarize, I made 3 buys yesterday.

$HIMS at $18.7
$OUST at $16.7
And $POET at $4.9

$HIMS is obviously very undervalued at the moment. Pharma is going through heavy weathers at the moment, but it will catch up.

I'm currently at 20% cash, my highest cash position ever. It's not because I sold, but mainly because I haven't added extra cash in a while.

Starting from next week, I will start to use this cash again. I'm still considering which positions I will strengthen.

I probably won't https://t.co/kpCHcrvnW8


I feel there is always an overreaction to ATM's, the max dillution will be 10% divided over a couple of years, yet the stock is down 17%. The average price target is around $50, so no need to panic imo. I'm confident it will be short-term though.

Summary: Bullish PL; views 17% selloff as overreaction to ATM, average PT ~$50, confident pain is short-term; PL is author's biggest holding.

Is there ever a good time to announce an ATM? While all analysts raise their $PL price targets, Planet just announced a $1.5B ATM (around 10% of the market cap).

Painful for the current shareholder, a possible entry point for the ones who missed out.

With probably the healthiest balance sheet in the space economy, this comes as a surprise to me. Planet is aggressively moving into the AI direction; currently building their own AI platform, sending Google and Nvidia chips into space and utilizing it to sharpen their pictures.

With $731 million in cash and short-term investments and a positive free cash flow, there is no need to raise capital. Planet is raising the capital while they can, not when they have to.

I feel there is always an overreaction to ATM's, the max dillution will be 10% divided over a couple of years, yet the stock is down 17%. The average price target is around $50, so no need to panic imo.

I'm working on my Planet deep-dive at the moment. Will hopefully launch it tonight, so you can decide if you want to jump in or not.

Note: Planet is by far my biggest holding, so yes I feel your pain. I'm confident it will be short-term though.

$PL down 8% at the moment after another record quarter, a double beat, a gross profit margin beat, and raised guidance. Won't be surprised if the stock is up tomorrow. This is what I learned from the earnings transcript, looking forward to the earnings call in about an hour.

Massive beneficiary of 'friendshoring' as Western defense/aerospace rushes to lock in secure, non-Chinese supply contracts.

Summary: Long VNP.TO and 5714.T as western gallium supply-chain beneficiaries amid China's export restrictions on the critical metal.

China's export bans are triggering a structural gallium supply shock. I’ve highlighted 2 strategic plays primed to benefit from the disruption.

What is happening:
• AI datacenters desperately need Gallium Nitride (GaN) to handle high power loads and prevent overheating compared to standard silicon

• China currently controls ~98% of the world's primary raw gallium production

• China retaliated against Western semiconductor sanctions by imposing strict export restrictions and licensing on gallium

• Has led to Western defense and tech sectors scrambling to secure non-Chinese supply chains

The consequence:
• Downstream semiconductor/wafer makers face higher input costs and supply delays.

• Allied refiners and recyclers with existing infrastructure gain utilization, immense pricing power, and strategic government-backed contracts.

Who benefits:

$VNP.TO (5N Plus)
• North American leader in ultra-high purity specialty metals.

• Doesn't mine; refines secondary materials and industrial byproducts to extreme purities.

• Massive beneficiary of "friendshoring" as Western defense/aerospace rushes to lock in secure, non-Chinese supply contracts.

5714.T (Dowa Holdings)
• Japanese giant in non-ferrous metal refining and e-waste recycling.

• Rapidly scaling gallium recovery from recycled electronics and zinc byproducts to feed Japan's starved semiconductor industry.

• Existing operational infrastructure allows them to capture elevated market prices immediately (unlike miners who need 5-10 years to build).

Summary: Long PL on NASA origins, Google/NVDA partnerships, positive FCF, and surging institutional ownership; endorses 300% upside thesis.

Simple $PL analysis:

- Founded by NASA scientist
- $GOOGL: 11% stake in the company
- Collaboration with Google to put TPU's in space
- Collaboration with $NVDA to put GPU's in space
- Only space company with positive FCF
- Increased institutional ownership: 450% in 4Y

Bullish

$PL remains my highest-conviction play in the space economy. Based on current fundamentals and their expanding contract pipeline, I see a clear path to a 300% upside from these levels.

Summary: Long PL: NVDA partnership transforms it into AI/data infrastructure play, expanding TAM and margins; endorses quoted 300% upside thesis.

$PL just announced their partnership with $NVDA to develop the first-ever GPU-native AI engine for planetary intelligence.

This is a complete paradigm shift from being a satellite imagery company to an AI and data infrastructure company with extremely high margins.

Here’s how I analyze this partnership and how it’s going to be a game-changer for $PL:

1. Cutting time-to-insight
Planet images the entire Earth every single day, which translates to an enormous amount of data and thus creates a huge data bottleneck. This partnership with NVIDIA will enable them to accelerate ground processing with their GPU technology, specifically with their Blackwell platform, which will allow them to transform satellite data into analysis-ready data in mere seconds.

2. Real-time Edge Computing in Space
This partnership is not limited to cloud computing alone. They are also going to integrate NVIDIA’s IGX Jetson Thor module into their new generation Pelican and upcoming Owl satellite series, which means we will see real-time AI intelligence being conducted in space.

3. GenAI-Based Super Resolution
Planet is also leveraging NVIDIA’s CorrDiff, which is a generative AI diffusion model, on their PlanetScope data sets. This means their data sets will be provided with advanced capabilities for super-resolution, which will increase the quality and accuracy of their data sets.

4. Building the search engine for Earth
The most exciting part of this partnership announcement is that $PL and $NVDA are working on architectures to transform their daily planetary data sets into AI embeddings. This means they are effectively creating a vector map of Earth. You will not only be able to see images of Earth, clients will be able to perform intelligent queries on the data sets.

My Takeaway: I think the biggest obstacle for $PL has always been their ability to provide access to their massive data archive with sufficient computing power. This partnership with NVIDIA will solve this problem for them, and their TAM, margin profile, and monetization opportunities will increase exponentially.

I am still extremely bullish on this company! The earnings this Thursday will be massive.

I believe that more and more institutions will increase their position in Fluence over the next quarters... no, I won't change anything about my $FLNC position

Summary: Holding FLNC long-term; expects institutional accumulation to build as hyperscaler deal details emerge and 2027 revenues approach.

A lot of questions regarding $FLNC today. I hope everyone understands that the market we live in today is not normal.

Is a stock going down 15% worrying? I would say yes in normal circumstances.

But when that stock is still up 66% that week? I would say a 15% is pretty normal.

The main reason Fluence is up 66% is because of the SMA’s with Hyperscalers. The first revenues of these Hyperscalers would come in Q2 2027, if all goes right.

When a stock gets pumped on hypothetical revenues in 2027, you will get days like this. It’s not normal that a stock gets re-rated the day after. Institutions gradually increase/decrease their position. This takes time.

Where will Fluence be next week? No clue.

Next month? No clue.

I believe that more and more institutions will increase their position in Fluence over the next quarters. I believe that the more information is available about the deals, the more those positions will increase. And by the time those revenues come in even more institutions will step in.

We all get spoiled by this market. Big traders influence the short-term market more than ever.

Don’t worry too much about that volatility, know your thesis and hold long-term.

So to answer the question: no, I won’t change anything about my $FLNC position.


Summary: Bullish AMPX: best-in-class drone battery tech + Pentagon financial backing for domestic drone makers as a durable tailwind.

If you invest in waves, you always have a winner. On what looks like a balanced day in the market, $AMPX is up 26% today.

Drone stocks are all up today. The Pentagon is actively exploring direct financial backing for domestic drone manufacturers. This proposed funding could involve government loans or even equity stakes in these companies.

Amprius makes batteries for drones and it's widely considered the company with the best technology. The best technology is certainly not always the cheapest and financial backing for drone manufacturers will certainly help the business.

I've been looking into $AMPX lately, and I think this company could do really well again in 2026.

why I think it will surge further ... Don't sleep on $PL

Summary: Long PL on surging defense backlog ($900M, +79% YoY), sovereign demand, NVIDIA AI partnership, and first-ever EBITDA profitability signaling further upside.

Starshield might be the best earth observation platform for governments.

Still $PL surged 50% in their Defense & Intelligence segment.

Here is a breakdown on why that was possible and why I think it will surge further.

1. The Power of Unclassified Intelligence:
SpaceX’s Starshield is an absolute beast, but it is highly classified and built almost exclusively for the U.S. military. If the U.S. or NATO needs to share intelligence with non-cleared global allies, or expose adversarial troop movements to the public, they cannot use Starshield without exposing secret spy capabilities.

$PL provides commercial, unclassified data that is instantly shareable on the world stage. Governments need both.

2. Broad-Area Monitoring vs. Targeted Spying:
Classified spy satellites are expensive and in incredibly high demand. Intelligence agencies use Planet’s daily, global scans to monitor massive geographic areas on a budget. When $PL's baseline data shows something suspicious, like a new military base or border buildup, the government then tasks its classified assets like Starshield to take a closer, highly targeted look. Planet frees up the heavy hitters.

3. Moving From Pixels to Answers:
Defense agencies are drowning in raw satellite imagery and don't have enough human analysts to review it all. Planet shifted its business model to address this, notably partnering with NVIDIA to build GPU-native AI engines into its data pipeline. $PL is no longer just selling pictures; they are selling automated alerts.

If an adversary moves fighter jets to a contested airfield, Planet’s AI flags it instantly.

Why I Think It Will Surge Further
• A Massive, Locked-In Backlog: $PL just reported a backlog of over $900 million which is a 79% year-over-year increase that is nearly three times their current annual revenue. The defense demand isn't just theoretical, the money is already committed.

• The Sovereign Space Boom: International allies realize they can't rely 100% on U.S. classified intelligence. Buying a subscription to $PL gives nations like Germany and Sweden their own dedicated eyes in the sky without needing to spend billions building and launching their own satellite constellations.

• The Profitability Turning Point: After years of cash burn, $PL just achieved its first full fiscal year of adjusted EBITDA profitability ($15.5 million) and positive free cash flow. They now have the solid financial foundation required to scale their next-generation Pelican (high-resolution) and Tanager (hyperspectral) fleets.

Starshield is going to completely dominate the classified realm, but open-source Earth intelligence is officially a booming, highly profitable sector. Don't sleep on $PL.


Summary: Bullish MU into earnings on massive expected revenue/EPS beats, HBM demand, and structural margin durability thesis.

$MU to save the market tonight as they report earnings. Insane numbers are to be expected from the company.

Revenues are expected to reach $35,294 which would be a 279% YoY growth and a 48% QoQ growth.

The EPS numbers are even more insane. The expectations are that EPS will hit 20.28 which would be a staggering 962% YoY growht and a 66% QoQ growth.

Some other points I'll look for in the earning calls:

1. Updates on advanced HBM technology roadmaps
High-Bandwidth Memory (HBM) is the specialized memory that sits directly next to AI processors (like Nvidia's chips) to feed them data at lightning speed. I want to know how Micron’s next-generation chips, like HBM4, are coming along. In the AI race, having the fastest, most power-efficient memory is the only way to stay competitive against rivals like SK Hynix and Samsung.

2. Visibility into future HBM capacity allocation
Micron’s HBM supply for 2026 is already effectively sold out. Because demand is so massive right now, the market wants to look further ahead. I will be listening for clues that Micron is already locking in binding customer contracts for 2027 and 2028. Cementing those long-term deals proves that the AI boom is creating sustained revenue, not just a temporary spike.

3. Sustainability of DRAM and NAND pricing
While HBM gets all the AI glory, traditional memory chips (DRAM for active memory, NAND for storage) still make up the bulk of Micron's sales. Because so much manufacturing space has been dedicated to HBM, regular chips are in short supply, which has driven their prices up. The big question is whether Micron can keep charging these premium prices, or if the market is going to cool off.

4. Capital expenditure risks concerning potential oversupply
The memory industry has a notorious boom-and-bust history: companies see high demand, build too many factories, and accidentally flood the market, causing prices to crash. I want reassurance that Micron is expanding carefully and not setting the stage for a future oversupply.

5. Management tone on structural margin durability
Profit margins in the memory sector are currently at record highs. I will be analyzing the executive team's confidence levels on the earnings call. I want to know if management believes these massive profits are structural, meaning the AI revolution has permanently transformed the memory business into a more profitable industry, or if this is just a cyclical peak before margins inevitably drop again.

Summary: Bullish OUST: ban on Chinese lidar gives Ouster a near-monopoly on US market from June 2026.

@gregory_FTA Yeah, I don't really look at graphs. But $OUST got a major catalyst in June. American companies won't be able to buy Chinese Lidar any more. This makes that Ouster basically got a monopoly on the US market starting from June 2026.

Summary: Bullish PL into Q1 earnings: watching backlog conversion, European sovereign deals, margin trajectory, and fleet deployment for FY27 profitability.

Today $PL announces their Q1 earnings. Here are my preparation notes:

- On top and bottom line expectations: The consensus is sitting at roughly $90M in revenue, which would represent about 36% YoY growth, right at the top end of their $87M -$91M guidance. EPS is expected to come in at a loss of $0.03 to $0.04. The focus is on whether they can beat that top line after last quarter's break-even EPS surprise.

- On the $900M backlog: They ended FY26 with a massive backlog, up 79% YoY. The most critical metric tonight is the pace of converting those RPOs into recognized revenue. I want to hear management's visibility on the contract pipeline and whether long sales cycles are causing any revenue bottlenecks.

- On recent European & sovereign contracts: The demand side looks robust. In May alone, they announced 7-figure deals with both the Greek government and the Czech Republic (specifically for AI-powered agriculture monitoring), building on the previous Swedish Armed Forces deal. I'm looking for confirmation that these government contracts carry the high margins needed to fuel the compounding SaaS model.

- On fleet deployment and launch cadence: Progress on the next-gen Pelican and Tanager constellations is essential. With the broader space economy evolving rapidly and potential launch supply chain catalysts on the horizon later this month, any delays or bottlenecks in getting these high-resolution and hyperspectral assets into orbit will directly push back their highest-margin product lines.

- On margins and FY27 profitability: Q1 non-GAAP gross margins were guided to 49-51%. For the full year, the target is 50-52% with positive adjusted EBITDA ($0-$10M). I'll be listening for any commentary on pricing power and whether satellite replacement or launch costs are eating into that operational leverage.

$PL earnings call just ended, here are my notes:

- On Project Suncatcher: It is still early days, but things are going well. It's an interesting space with a lot of potential. But it's still a research project; no potential revenue was given.

- On the collaboration with $NVDA:


everything behind the numbers looks fantastic for $OSS... their core business of building rugged computers for AI is booming... Looking ahead to 2026, management is incredibly optimistic... Looks extremely optimistic for all shareholders

Summary: Bullish OSS post-Q4: booming AI rugged-computer business, record profitability, strong pipeline, and optimistic 2026 outlook.

$OSS just reported Q4 earnings. I'm honestly a bit confused on the revenue figures. I get the historical and expectations data from fiscalAI, and it looks like they changed expectations. It looks like a great double beat now.

Anyway, everything behind the numbers looks fantastic for $OSS. The pre-market gains are dropping a bit to 6%, meaning this news was expected by insiders.

The main takeaway is that their core business of building rugged computers for AI is booming. They achieved massive sales growth and record profitability, driven by surging demand across defense and commercial markets.

By selling off their Bressner subsidiary, OSS smartly streamlined operations and built a strong cash position to focus purely on high-growth opportunities.

Looking ahead to 2026, management is incredibly optimistic. With a deep pipeline of military contracts and commercial projects, they are perfectly positioned for continued, predictable growth.

Looks extremely optimistic for all shareholders.

$OSS to report earnings before the bell. They are currently already up 9% in pre-market, which is often a good sign.

It will be important to see continued momentum and expansion within their defense and aerospace contracts, which provide crucial stability for the company. EPS https://t.co/YGUR2FjKRm


I started a position last Friday, which is already up 30%. Trading under $FTC, it's wild how long they've managed to fly under the radar.

Summary: Long Filtronic (FTC): commercial monopoly in E-band GaN SSPAs for SpaceX Starlink, SpaceX warrant agreement, and TAM expansion potential into V-band.

If you are looking to learn more about new companies over the weekend, I recommend you looking into Filtronic.

I started a position last Friday, which is already up 30%.

Trading under $FTC, it’s wild how long they've managed to fly under the radar. With a market cap around $600M, they serve as an essential chokepoint for SpaceX's Starlink, providing the technology that gives SpaceX a major advantage over Amazon's rival Project Kuiper.

What they do is highly specialized but absolutely crucial. Filtronic effectively holds a commercial monopoly where High-Power, E-Band, GaN (Gallium Nitride), and SSPAs (Solid State Power Amplifiers) intersect.

This hardware is mandatory for transmitting massive data volumes to and from space without the equipment melting down. Competing options, like older GaAs tech or crowded Ka-band frequencies, simply don't have the power or efficiency to keep up.

While the current total addressable market (TAM) for E-band ground gateways is fairly niche, Filtronic's intellectual property is unmatched. SpaceX knows this, which is why they signed a warrant agreement that could grant them up to a 15% stake in the company. In exchange, SpaceX is heavily subsidizing Filtronic's R&D to build the next generation of V-band GaN SSPAs.

If they successfully develop the V-band, their TAM will skyrocket, expanding from a few thousand ground stations to tens of millions of consumer and enterprise terminals.

Summary: Favors PL over SATL on risk-reward; PL has cash optionality including potential to acquire SATL.

@Marsh1L Great company but they are in a completely different phase right now. They still have a lot to prove and the P/S ratio is around the same level. With the cash $PL is having available, they can buy $SATL. So the risk-reward is still in $PL favour imo.

Summary: Long OUST with $40 PT; expects Q3 earnings as the key price catalyst.

@lngtermcapital My price target is $40, with the real price catalyst in Q3 earnings.

@Kaizen_Investor You still like $OUST here?


Summary: Long Filtronic: strategic SpaceX partner in V-band GaN, $600M cap misunderstood by market in $1.2B industry.

Filtronic already up 26% this week.

SpaceX manufacturers 85% of its rocket and spacecraft components in-house.

The big chunk of the remaining 15% are raw materials or standard electronic components.

Not with Filtronic, the $600M market cap company is a strategic partner for SpaceX.

The market does not fully realise the disruption Filtronic will bring to this $1.2 billion industry.

Major players like SpaceX and $AMZN have already secured FCC approval for thousands of V-band satellites, while companies like Astra Space and Boeing are actively exploring their own constellations.

Currently, only a few suppliers can manufacture the necessary V-band GaN https://t.co/6nxguekPbW


A lot of investors wondering how to profit from the new NVIDIA's 800V HVDC architecture. $WOLF published a great white paper on why SiC is necessary for the pivot.

Summary: Long WOLF as the key SiC beneficiary of AI data center 800V HVDC architecture requiring Solid-State Transformers.

A lot of investors wondering how to profit form the new NVIDIA's 800V HVDC architecture. $WOLF published a great white paper on why SiC is necessary for the pivot. Here is my summary of the paper:

Next generation AI factories require massive amounts of power. Delivering power at 800V DC reduces wiring requirements, improves efficiency, and allows for mu higher GPU density in server racks.

However the major bottleneck is getting power from the utility grid to the data center. Currently, this relies on conventional medium-voltage (MV) iron-core transformers, which use heavy copper windings and magnetic cores to step down the AC voltage. The massive spike in AI data center construction has caused a supply chain crisis for these traditional transformers, resulting in lead times of up to 3 years.

To bypass this supply chain bottleneck and improve efficiency, engineers are replacing traditional heavy iron-core transformers with Solid-State Transformers (SSTs).

An SST uses solid-state semiconductor devices (power electronics) rather than just copper coils to step down and convert the voltage. It takes the 13.8 - 35 kV AC power from the grid and directly converts it into the 800 VDC required by the AI server racks.

Conventional power switches made of standard Silicon (specifically, Silicon IGBTs - Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistors) cannot handle the requirements of an SST effectively. They suffer from high switching losses and are limited to low switching frequencies (a few hundred Hertz).

This is where Silicon Carbide (SiC), a wide-bandgap semiconductor, comes in:

- High Switching Frequency: SiC MOSFETs (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors) can operate at frequencies greater than 10,000 Hz.

- Smaller Magnetics: In transformer design, as switching frequency increases, the physical size of the required magnetic coils and cores decreases. By switching at >10,000 Hz, SiC enables compact, lightweight SSTs that take up a fraction of the floor space of a traditional transformer.

- Thermal Efficiency: Wolfspeed’s SiC achieves 99% conversion efficiency, which reduces the need for heavy thermal cooling systems by 50% compared to Silicon IGBTs.

The article highlights two distinct engineering approaches to building an SST, depending on the blocking voltage of the SiC devices used:

1. Medium-Voltage (MV) SiC (< 5kV blocking voltage)

- Architecture: Because the voltage is lower, engineers must use a multi-level architecture comprising several cascaded converter cells (stacking multiple devices in series) to handle the grid's high voltage.

- Pros: Smaller, highly modular building blocks that are easier to service. Commercially available 3.3kV gate drivers already exist. It also generates a smaller dv/dt (the rate of change of voltage over time), which minimizes Electromagnetic Interference (EMI).

- Cons: Requires complex control algorithms to trigger the series of switches perfectly, and demands precise insulation coordination between the cells.

2. High-Voltage (HV) SiC (> 5kV blocking voltage)

- Architecture: Utilizing Wolfspeed’s advanced 10kV SiC MOSFETs, designers can use a much simpler two-level cell architecture.

- Pros: Vastly simplifies the control scheme and insulation needs because there are fewer cascaded cells.

- Cons: These devices switch with a very high dv/dt, which requires an ultra-low-parasitic design to manage EMI. Furthermore, compatible gate drivers for >3.3kV are rare, often requiring custom development.

In short, the article argues that the rapid expansion of AI requires a fundamental redesign of how power is delivered from the grid. By utilizing 10kV SiC MOSFETs to build Solid-State Transformers, the industry can eliminate massive transformer lead times, achieve higher efficiency, and deliver the specific 800V HVDC power that modern AI clusters require, provided the industry can mature the surrounding ecosystem of high-voltage gate drivers and millisecond-class DC fault clearing protection systems.


Summary: Holds $PL long since $4; argues potential not fully priced in and targets 10-bagger outcome driven by FCF, RPO growth, defense contracts, and new satellite fleets.

Today is all about $PL earnings for me. I bought the stock at $4 when I saw the raw potential of their massive dataset of images and daily earth scans, together with AI.

Since I bought the stock a year ago, a lot has happened:
- First-ever pure play space company with a positive free cash flow
- RPO growth of 361%
- 6 successful Pelican launches
- Introduction of the new Owl satellite
- Opening of a new manufacturing facility in Berlin
- Prime contractor for SHIELD IDIQ Prime
- New government & defense contracts with Germany, Sweden, NRO, and US Navy
- $NVDA partnership
- Project suncatcher with $GOOGL
- Acquisition of Bedrock Research

The market has rewarded Planet with a 550% surge. Still, I think the potential of this company is not fully priced in. It could easily become my first 10-bagger, in my opinion.

I'll go a bit deeper into the planet graphs, what I expect tonight, and why they will keep outperforming.

---

1. Let's first address why $PL stands out from every other competitor, their positive free cash flow. They reported a record $47m free cash flow in Q2, it dropped to $1.89m in Q3.

Planet has already completed their most expensive infrastructure phase and are now using the high margins of a data-subscription model.

In this bussiness the main cost is in your R&D expenditure and in your CapEx. As planet does not sell their satellites but the service of the satellites, most of the production and launching costs will be booked as CapEx.

Planet currently operates around 200 satellites in orbit. They make daily scans of the entire planet. The main costs are made, and Planet is now reaping the benefits of their subscription model.

Why is this a major advantage?

$PL do not need to dillute any shares and can focus on the launch of new satellites and R&D. To maintain their moat, Planet has to continuously launch upgraded hardware like the high-resolution Pelican and the hyperspectral Tanager satellites.

Another major factor is trust, when the NRO or the German Ministry of Defense signs a multi-year intelligence contract, they want to make sure that the company does not go bankrupt within 18 months.

A last positive is that they can look for M&A opportunities. They are currently sitting on $600m in cash and short-term investments. They can acquire competitors or niche AI companies Bedrock Research.

What are the expectations for tonight?

Analysts expect the free cash flow to drop to -$31m. Planet is aggressively launching there Pelican fleet. This is why the CapEx can be a bit fluctuating. Once the Pelican fleet is in the air, the free cash flow should quickly recover and scale beyond the current levels.

---

2. Does $PL have pricing power?

To check if a company has pricing power, I always check the revenue growth and the gross profit margin growth. If a company has pricing power, it should be able to grow revenues meanwhile asking more for their services (growing gp-maring).

Although both are growing, it is not completely what I would like to see. The gross profit margin jumped to 62% without the revenues growing, and when the margins dropped again, revenues started growing again.

The drop in gross profit margin is mainly due to 3 aspects

1. Planet secured a major contract with JSAT. This contract involves engineering, dedicated capacity, and infastructure service. This revenue provides a lower gross margin than pure SaaS data licensing.

2. Planet has been aggressively launching its new high-resolution Pelican and hyperspectral Tanager satellites. As soon as these new hardware assets go live in orbit, their depreciation expenses immediately hit Planet's COGS. This creates a short-term drag on GAAP gross margins until the revenue generated by those specific satellites scales up to offset the depreciation hit.

3. Planet is heavily investing in its cloud infrastructure and edge-computing capabilities. These upfront cloud compute costs are temporarily weighing on margins.

What do I expect tonight?

Analysts expect the revenue to drop a bit after the Q3 growth. This is mainly because in Q3, they had a couple of big 1-off contracts. With those out of the way, revenues are expected to stabilize again.

It is not something I want to see tonight. With a massive $700m backlog, $PL should be able to keep revenues growing. Management gave a $80m guidance for Q4. With recent geopolitical events, they should have been able to move the revenues a bit higher.

I expect the gross profit margin to be stable again. It can drop a bit due to the aggressive launch of the Pelican fleet, but I expect nothing spectacular.

---

3. I would love to hear some updates on the $PL projects tonight.

Pelican: With these rapid tasking, high-res satellites now deployed, I'd like to hear the company talk about customer conversion. I need management to assure the public that existing defense and enterprise customers are actively signing contracts to upgrade to this new tier.

Owl: This is the future of their daily monitoring business – upgrading the wide scan to 1-meter resolution. Tonight, I'd like to hear the company talk about deployment schedules to reassure the public that the existing data moat remains untouchable and on schedule.

$NVDA: The inclusion of Thor GPUs on the satellite fleet cuts latency from hours to seconds. Tonight, however, I'd like to hear the company talk about margin expansion. I need management to assure the public that this instant AI capability allows them to charge higher software premiums and expand Average Contract Values.

Project Suncatcher: $GOOGL is paying Planet to build 2027 prototype satellites. Tonight, I'd like to hear the company talk about the timeline of the project and hear more details.

Summary: Bullish FLNC: selected as exclusive energy storage partner for Siemens/Nvidia AI data center reference architecture; new 10MWh high-density system solves land-footprint constraint for AI workloads.

$FLNC advanes Smartstack Energy Storage Platform with High-Density 10MWh System.

This is big news in my opinion. Earlier this month, Siemens unveiled a 136MW reference architecture built specifically for Nvidia's Vera Rubin NVL72 AI supercomputers. Fluence was selected as the exclusive energy storage partner to handle the massive, erratic power fluctuations typical of AI workloads.

AI data centers require 2 to 3 hours of battery backup and load-smoothing, rather than the standard 1 hour. Storing that much energy typically requires a massive land footprint, which is a primary constraint for developers.

By achieving an energy density of ~680 MWh/acre (a ~33% capacity increase over their 7.5 MWh system in the exact same physical footprint), Fluence allows operators to meet the extreme power demands of Nvidia's hardware without expanding the real estate footprint of the reference design.


Summary: Long Filtronic as next potential 10-bagger; central to space comms evolution with SpaceX-funded research.

Filtronic back up 44% after some doomsellers called the stock overvalued.

If I have another 10-bagger in portfolio, it is Filtronic. In the center of the whole space communication evolution and their research is paid by SpaceX.

Sometimes it’s not harder than that. https://t.co/g5YyqXR5g4


Summary: Long PL; author views it as one of the safest space investments with FCF, EBITDA positivity, SpaceX synergy, Google backing, and market-beating returns ahead.

I see $PL as one of the safest investments in the space industry. They have a positive free cash flow and positive EBITDA (in some quarters). Their technology works perfectly together with SpaceX and they are backed by $GOOGL.

It’s not your multibagger any more but they will still easily beat the market in the upcoming years imo.

@Kaizen_Investor Really like $PL but what you see in the future. They have amazing growth in revenue and tbh I am kind of hesitant to build a position especially when the stock run up so much. What do you think about the future of this company?


Summary: Bullish WOLF despite 20% drop; selling is wrong — cites Citrini top pick, Canaccord $85 PT, and BofA SiC sector upgrade as durable tailwinds.

$WOLF down almost 20% today.

Should you panick as a long-term investor?
Let's see what happened since the earnings may 5th.

1. Citrini's highlight (May 13): Thematic research firm Citrini published a highly influential note designating Wolfspeed as its top pick for the AI infrastructure buildout. The firm argued that the company's post-bankruptcy setup is an ideal 'crouching tiger' scenario, noting that its specialized fabrication assets are effectively irreplaceable. This reframed Wolfspeed from a distressed EV supplier to an AI power player.

2. Canaccord's $85 Price Target (May 25): Sell-side analysts at Canaccord Genuity reiterated their buy rating on the stock and set an aggressive $85 price target. They focus heavily on the strategic value of the company's Mohawk Valley fabrication facility. The note highlighted that future utilization of this specific fab will serve as the primary catalyst to unlock massive shareholder value by fiscal year 2027.

3. Bank of America's Sector Upgrade (May 27): Early this morning, Bank of America issued a bullish sector update declaring that the era of 1.5 MW AI data center racks has officially arrived. The analysts explicitly named Silicon Carbide (SiC) fabricators as the top beneficiaries in the race to overhaul traditional high-voltage power distribution systems.

Up to you but selling looks like the wrong call to me.


$OUST is a $40 stock but as I explained, but it will take time. Safe LIDAR act will only start in June, so we will only start to see the first results in Q3. $OUST will rise, give it time.

Summary: Long OUST to $40 on Safe LIDAR Act tailwind; expects margin improvement starting Q3 as Chinese competition fades.

Funny how quickly people forget. $OUST is a $40 stock but as I explained, but it will take time.

Safe LIDAR act will only start in June, so we will only start to see the first results in Q3. Maybe even later as companies will buy some extra cheap Chinese Lidar as stock.

They are now still fighting against those cheap Chinese manufacturers. You clearly see that in the EPS and margins.

As I said:
“Don’t expect to see crazy numbers soon”

$OUST will rise, give it time. Starting from Q3, we’ll start to see some improvements.

I see daily $OUST posts popping up now, so there should be enough technical information for you to dive in.

I bought the stock at $20, added some more around $16, with average cost now around $18.

I do want to warn investors though. This stock needs time and relies heavily on https://t.co/yejJPIgsVK


Summary: Expects IREN to pump; encourages building conviction through research.

@LandoInvests You should have done the research 😅 $IREN will pump as well. You’ve done the research and build the conviction, that’d the most important part.

@Kaizen_Investor I should’ve listened oh my days 😭


Summary: Bullish IREN as having the highest upside ceiling despite elevated business model and financing risk.

@SJCapitalInvest I see why. I still think $IREN has the highest ceiling at the moment. The business model and financing involves more risk though.


Summary: Endorses analyst consensus raising PL price targets to ~$40; reiterates strong buy despite recent surge.

Most analysts now upgraded their $PL price targets. The stock stays a strong buy despite the surge.

Most analysts increased their price target towards $40. https://t.co/Vbc5PYK7ZJ

Needham is the first to raise $PL price target to $40. They maintain the buy rating. https://t.co/GZZ8K0r23Y


Summary: Added to OUST position at $16.7, endorsing near-monopoly LiDAR thesis with $20.52–$73.78 PT.

$OUST might be the safest high growth opportunity in the market right now. The SAFE LiDAR act makes sure you are buying a near monopoly in the US LiDAR market.

My Price Target: $20.52 -> $73.78 (bull case)

The risk profile of Planet just dropped significantly… Planet is completely self-funding its AI and hardware transition.

Summary: Bullish PL post-earnings: 35-43% guided revenue growth, 79% backlog surge, $640M cash, self-funding — risk profile materially lower.

$PL up 9% after a massive double beat 📈

As expected they easily beated the revenue guidance. But the forecast is also big. Planet guided FY27 revenue to $415 million–$440 million. That implies roughly 35% to 43% year-over-year growth, meaning their growth rate is actually accelerating compared to this year's 26%.

Their backlog also exploded 79% year-over-year to over $900 million, the revenue for FY27 is largely already contracted. The risk profile of Planet just dropped significantly.

They generated $53 million in Free Cash Flow and are sitting on a $640 million war chest. In a high-interest-rate environment where competitors are going bankrupt or diluting shareholders to survive, Planet is completely self-funding its AI and hardware transition.

I'll go more in dept tomorrow, first the earnings call.

Today is all about $PL earnings for me. I bought the stock at $4 when I saw the raw potential of their massive dataset of images and daily earth scans, together with AI.

I hold $IREN because they dipped too much imo. It's around 6% of my portfolio.

Summary: Holds IREN as ~6% of portfolio, viewing the dip as overdone.

@JoshTradeOption I hold $IREN because they dipped too much imo. It’s around 6% of my portfolio.

@Kaizen_Investor I agree, I like both. I hold a lot of $IREN, do you prefer one over the other?


Massive potential on $IREN as will imo. Got the highest ceiling out of the three thanks to their business strategy. It's the high risk, high reward play in the Neocloud market.

Summary: Long IREN as the highest-ceiling, high-risk/high-reward play in the Neocloud market.

@aleabitoreddit Massive potential on $IREN as will imo. Got the highest ceiling out of the three thanks to their business strategy. It’s the high risk, high reward play in the Neocloud market.

My thoughts on $NBIS, $IREN, $CRWV and the current Neocloud market.

One of them ends up as the next AWS in 5 years:

My guess it’s Nebius.

It's not winner takes all (DigitalOcean is there with Amazon), but there's clearly superior structures and likely winners.

never sold a single share and not planning to. Planet is the pure play space company with a positive cash flow. If not, just invest in the best thing there is in the market right now: $PL

Summary: Still holding PL (+1000%), won't sell; argues it remains the best pure-play space/AI data company with positive cash flow and no real competition.

I’ve now reached +1,000% in profits from $PL. never sold a single share and not planning to.

I see more investors looking for the next Planet Labs instead of investing in the company. I get that, it is counter-intuitive to buy a stock that went up +1,000% in a year. But looking for the next Planet Labs is being happy with less quality at a similar P/S valuation.

Planet is the only company who maps the entire world every single day. The have done this for almost 9 years now.

Why are they surging now, when they do this for 9 years already you think?

Simple: AI

All those pictures all those data is just too much for a human to get meaningful information from. But AI is wonderful at those things, recognising patterns and answering questions based on the data.

Why buying Planet and not competitors who did not surge this much?

First of all, there is still no other company who maps the entire world every single day. Let alone since 2017. The data you buy from these companies is just less interesting for AI to dig into.

Planet has build this all out without competition. If you want a new competitor now to do the same, they don’t have to do what Planet has done, they have to do it better. You have to compete with a trusted partner in the business for some years already.

Planet is the pure play space company with a positive cash flow. In times where interest rates are high, this is underestimated. Where you see other companies struggle with dilution, Planet can keep investing without the necessity to dillute shareholders or to rent at high rates.

So if you want to invest in competitors, don’t just look at the lower market cap. Look at the P/S valuation for example. It should be way lower than Planet to be interesting in my opinion. If not, just invest in the best thing there is in the market right now: $PL.

I bought $PL at $4.

I first put it on your radar when I launched this account in Sept '25, and followed up with a full deep dive in Oct '25 when it was trading around $12.

If you followed along back then, you're sitting on a 200% gain today. https://t.co/XfPQrKRq3D


$AMPX one of the main winners of this milestone. Amprius is uniquely positioned to benefit because the success of eVTOL aircraft hinges entirely on battery performance. Note: I'm long $AMPX

Summary: Long AMPX as primary beneficiary of eVTOL/flying-taxi expansion; silicon anode tech at 500 Wh/kg and 6-min charging uniquely positioned for Dubai market.

$AMPX one of the main winners of this milestone. Amprius is uniquely positioned to benefit because the success of eVTOL aircraft hinges entirely on battery performance.

The energy demands are extreme, requiring the ultra-high density that Amprius’s silicon anode technology provides at 500 Wh/kg, solving the critical weight-to-power ratio for profitable flights.

Furthermore, a taxi network in Dubai relies on rapid turnaround, a need met by Amprius’s ability to charge to 80% in under six minutes. By validating this infrastructure, Dubai triggers a competitive race for elite power sources.

Amprius, with its significant market share and scalable manufacturing model, stands as the primary beneficiary of this demand surge.

Note: I’m long $AMPX

JUST IN: Dubai has completed its first flying taxi station, with commercial operations set to begin by year-end.


Summary: Holding FLNC long despite 27% loss; expects no turnaround until next earnings but sees it as ideally positioned in critical energy grid sector.

The new energy wave had a difficult Q1 2026.

Nuclear
$OKLO:  -38%
$SMR: -37%

$PLUG: +8%

I own $FLNC who reported disappointing results but really got hammered when $EOSE reported earnings.

The trust in management in this sector is completely gone. I don’t expect a turnaround until next earnings. But think the energy grid remains critical and $FLNC is ideally positioned.

I hold my position which is currently down 27% for me. It is my smallest position and only 3% of my portfolio.

$FLNC just dropped 15% after mixed Q4 earnings.

Summary: Bullish on CML.L micro-cap: GaN/GaAs pivot + ITAR US defense/satellite expansion seen as a game changer; high-margin regulated markets.

$CML.L is an interesting micro-cap and partner of Filtronic.

they are an essential fabless semiconductor supplier for mission-critical communications. The commercial satellite and high-frequency 5G infrastructure tech is rapidly developing.

Through its recent acquisition of Microwave Technology (MwT), CML is building Gallium Nitride (GaN) and Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) MMIC amplifiers for the aerospace and defense sectors.

CML is pivoting away from just legacy two-way radio chips to high-frequency mmWave tech.

While many larger competitors are fighting margin wars in consumer electronics, CML is strictly focused on high-margin, highly regulated industrial, defense, and space markets.

I believe their shift to higher-frequency GaN/GaAs components and their expansion into the ITAR-regulated US defense and satellite markets will be a real game changer.

Even during this severe cyclical downturn, they were able to secure a massive 12-year, $30M design and supply contract for industrial GNSS equipment.

This high-frequency segment will become more and more important for them.

Want to dig a bit deeper but certainly an interesting company.

I spent two weeks researching the space communications evolution.

with a forward P/E of 5.81 there is still room to grow... those metrics are all better than $ASML. Like I said $ASML has the longevity and are less cyclical but with those numbers, there is still room imo

Summary: Long SK Hynix on cheap valuation (fwd P/E 5.81) vs strong ROIC/ROE/margins; sold ASML (fwd P/E 46) implying relative undervaluation.

I think so, with a forward P/E of 5.81 there is still room to grow. I sold my $ASML shares for it who has a forward P/E of 46 atm. Not saying that SK Hynix should have the same multiple but their ROIC is at 46% at the moment, ROE 61%, GP margin 68%,… those metrics are all better than $ASML.

Like I said $ASML has the longevity and are less cyclical but with those numbers, there is still room imo. Memory won’t be gone tmrw.


Summary: Holds long MRVL as a top photonics play with strong financials, Celestial AI acquisition, and $2B NVDA partnership expanding AI ecosystem access.

My $MRVL position is already up 35%.

I think they are one of the safest plays into photonics. Financially very healthy and they are using their cash do to some great acquisition.

Its Celestial AI deal adds Photonic Fabric, strengthening its position in scale-up connectivity for next-gen data centers.

They also have a strategic partnership with $NVDA. They are working together on NVLink Fusion, custom silicon, scale-up networking, and silicon photonics so customers can build AI systems that stay compatible with NVIDIA’s ecosystem.

NVIDIA announced a $2 billion equity investment in Marvell as part of the expanded partnership.

NVIDIA gets a broader, more flexible AI hardware stack, and Marvell gets deeper access to NVIDIA’s AI factory and AI-RAN ecosystem.

I decided to take a position in $MRVL last Monday. I started the position at $88.66.

Here is my investment thesis

With AI models now having trillions of parameters, the limiting factor in compute performance is no longer the GPU itself, but the network required to synchronize https://t.co/QwPreencwU

Summary: TTD heading to new lows following Publicis dropping it as a recommended platform.

@StockSavvyShay $TTD on there way to new lows… Sad to see.

One of the world’s largest advertising companies Publicis is reportedly dropping $TTD as a recommended platform after a recent audit.

The audit alleges fee opacity & unauthorized auto-enrollment that directly challenges Trade Desk’s core value proposition as a neutral, https://t.co/jnjTsj5qAB


Summary: Bullish on RKLB as one of the best companies in the space sector; encourages holding through drawdowns.

$RKLB never disappoints. The space industry is one of the most fascinating sectors & $RKLB one of the best companies in it.

Remember that you don’t just own shares, you are part of a company. When you buy companies you really admire, it’s easier to hold through the drawdowns.

Summary: Bullish PL on unique Google Cloud/AI/LEM partnership, Project Suncatcher, and TAM expansion; GOOGL named as key strategic partner.

Something I did not emphasize enough in my $PL deep-dive is how bullish the partnership with $GOOGL is. It's an advantage no other company in the industry has.

A first hurdle for competitors are the massive amounts of data they need to store. They need a cloud provider to help them store and organize the data. Planet has that in Google. Planet's entre operational pipeline is built on and powered by Google Cloud Platform. It was part of the agreement of the Terra bella acquisition of Planet in 2017.

Planet is building it's own Large Earth Model (LEMs) and Agentic AI workflows. They partner with Google on this as well, they are leveraging Google's Remote Sensing Foundation Model (RSFM) alongside with Gemini-powered reasoning. This integration is what gives the application its agentic capabilities, allowing it to understand a conversational text prompt, autonomously scan Planet's daily global imagery, detect specific objects or changes over time, and synthesize the findings into an analytic report.

Planet refers to this initiative as Queryable Earth or Planetary Intelligence. Instead of training a model purely on internet text, they are essentially training AI on Earth observation data about the physical world. Google's foundation models provide the underlying architecture that translates the user's natural language into complex geospatial queries.

Early 2026 Google and Planet released the highly experimental Project Suncatcher. This is a research initiative exploring the feasibility of running data-center-style computing systems in low Earth orbit. The project aims to see if near-continuous solar power and the vacuum of space can efficiently support energy-intensive artificial intelligence workloads. Planet is leveraging its manufacturing and operational expertise to build and help deploy two demonstration spacecraft for Google, targeted for launch around 2027.

There is no SaaS space company has this massive advantage. These initiatives will blow up the TAM of Planet.

Summary: Remains bullish on memory; rebuts bearish article on DRAM-to-Flash substitution, Nvidia memory cuts, and CapEx pause thesis — HBM structural demand intact.

Memory sector basket: SK Hynix, Samsung, Micron

I always recommend investors to read more about other perspectives than read articles with a similar perspective as your own.

If you are bullish on memory like me, this is a great article to read. It covers a whole other side of the story and it is very interesting to read.

I remain bullish on memory though as I see a couple of things differently as the author.

1. Replacing DRAM with Flash

The author points to AMD’s acquisition of MEXT as proof that companies are optimizing away from expensive memory. This fundamental misunderstanding confuses inference with training.

Software tiering like MEXT or hardware like High Bandwidth Flash (HBF) is excellent for inference, which is read-heavy and deterministic. However, AI training requires constant, rapid backpropagation and weight updates.

If you attempt to use NAND flash as the primary working memory for AI training, the massive volume of continuous write cycles will physically destroy the flash cells, and the microsecond latency will leave the GPUs sitting idle. Flash cannot replace DRAM for the heaviest compute workloads.

2. Misinterpreting Nvidia's Memory Optimization

The article claims Nvidia is cutting memory by pointing to a ~50% reduction in SOCAMM DRAM in the upcoming Rubin NVL72 rack. This misses exactly where that memory is located.

SOCAMM (typically LPDDR5X) is attached to the CPU (the Grace or Vera chip), not the GPU. Nvidia optimizing the CPU-side memory is a localized cost and power reduction. Meanwhile, the actual AI accelerator( the Rubin GPU) is seeing a massive expansion in memory.

Each Rubin GPU will pack up to 8 stacks of HBM4, pushing bandwidth well over 20TB/s. The article is confusing a cost-saving measure on the general-purpose compute side with a reduction in AI memory demand.

The structural bottleneck remains GPU memory bandwidth, and hyperscalers must continue paying for it.

3. High Margins Are Not Just Greed

The article assumes the 60-80% gross margins commanded by SK Hynix, Micron, and Samsung are purely the result of artificial supply choking. This ignores the manufacturing reality of High Bandwidth Memory, which is no longer a traditional commodity.

HBM manufacturing is an extreme engineering challenge characterized by brutal yield curves.

HBM requires stacking 8, 12, or soon 16 fragile DRAM dies on top of each other, connected by thousands of microscopic Through-Silicon Vias (TSVs). If a single die in a 16-Hi stack fails testing, the entire stack is scrapped.

With HBM4, the architecture changes fundamentally. The base die will no longer be standard DRAM, it will be a custom logic die manufactured on advanced foundry nodes (like TSMC's 3nm or 4nm) to double the I/O pin count from 1024 to 2048.

These companies aren't just printing standard RAM modules and jacking up the price. No, they are managing custom logic integration and advanced 3D packaging (like TSMC's CoWoS). The high margins compensate for massive R&D and low initial yields.

4. The Memory Wall Prevents CapEX Pause

The author predicts a CapEx pause around mid-2027 because hyperscalers are running out of cash. This ignores the physics of Large Language Models.

Model capability scales with parameter count, and parameter count scales linearly with memory capacity. A 1-trillion parameter model requires over 2TB of memory just to store the weights in FP16, plus massive additional capacity for the KV cache to handle long context windows.

If a hyperscaler pauses memory CapEx, they mathematically cap the size of the models they can train and serve. In the current AI arms race, stopping CapEx doesn't just mean saving money, it means forfeiting the frontier model race entirely.

I've invested in Filtronic a couple of weeks ago. I agree but with SpaceX still scaling, I think there is more room to run.

Summary: Holds Filtronic; sees more upside as SpaceX continues scaling.

@ai0dev I’ve invested in Filtronic a couple of weeks ago. I agree but with SpaceX still scaling, I think there is more room to run.

Summary: Holds a live long position in OUST, added during recent pullback.

@BlackPantherCap Great choice, pulled the trigger on $OUST a couple of weeks ago and added during the pullback.

I’ve finally pulled the trigger on a new position that I think is going to be a cornerstone of my holdings for the next decade.

I’m officially long $OUST (Ouster, Inc.).

If you’ve been following my "long-term trilogy"; $ONDS, $KRKNF, and $AMPX then you know my vibe.

I’m https://t.co/t7yn1Pv2kk


Summary: Long OUST to $40 on Safe LIDAR Act catalyst starting Q3; also bullish PL as the irreplaceable leader with no real successor.

It's really not that difficult to post things on X. Every few days it's the same drama, so you can just retweet and hope one day investors will understand.

Lately, the volatility on $OUST has been crazy though. This happens once retail investors step in and the stock gets popular on social media. Instead of institutions stacking gradually, you now have day traders, swing traders, paper hands... controlling the trading algorithms.

It's not worrying for long-term investors as the long-term trend stays clear.

I honestly thought this would happen with $PL. But they seem to be steady as a rock. Apparently, retail investors are looking for the next Planet Labs. Imagine what would happen if they realize that Planet is here to stay and there is no next Planet Labs.

Funny how quickly people forget. $OUST is a $40 stock but as I explained, but it will take time.

Safe LIDAR act will only start in June, so we will only start to see the first results in Q3. Maybe even later as companies will buy some extra cheap Chinese Lidar as stock.

If I wouldn't be exposed to space, I think this is an ideal entry point if you want to have exposure. If it drops to the low $20's, I add.

Summary: Holds PL as ideal entry at current levels, adds if it drops to low $20s; still long RKLB as part of space wave exposure.

People ask me if I’m not too worried about $PL dropping 50%.

I can tell you I’m very relaxed about the situation.

First of all because there is nothing fundamentally wrong with Planet.

Secondly, because I invest in what I call different ‘investment waves’.

Yes, I have a lot of exposure to the space economy but I’m also exposed to memory, LiDAR, drones, photonics, datacenters, and energy.

There are some always waves that go up when others come crashing down.

If I wouldn’t be exposed to space, I think this is an ideal entry point if you want to have exposure.

If you don’t have exposure to a wave that you want, you need to be aggressive. I wanted exposure to memory, I bought SK Hynix on the first drop during the Iran war at €487.

SK turned out great from the beginning but a year ago, I wanted exposure to space. During the tariff drop, I bought $PL and $RKLB. Both tumbled 33% after but look where they are now.

If you want exposure you need to be agressive. Do your research to find the best 2 companies in a wave and don’t doubt when the opportunity comes.

When you already have exposure you can wait a bit longer. While I’m quite certain that I would have bought Planet if I did not have space exposure today. I think there is a risk that it moves back to the low 20’s.

If it starts rising again from here, I already have exposure. If it drops to the low $20’s, I add.

That is why tracking investment waves early is so important. By being aggressive to get exposure, you buy yourself a huge advantage later on.

$PL now almost down 50% after announcing a (at that time) 10% atm.

On a short-term technical level, the announcement was awfully chosen. Together with the capital outflow to SpaceX, algo’s put their sights on Planet to pull the stock down.

But we have been at these levels https://t.co/wuuvv1Ah59


During the tariff drop, I bought $PL and $RKLB. Both tumbled 33% after but look where they are now.


I bought the stock at $20, added some more around $16, with average cost now around $18. I think will move to $40 over time.

Summary: Long OUST with avg cost ~$18, target $40; bullish on SAFE LiDAR Act benefiting Ouster as Chinese dominance fades, but expects a slow transition.

I see daily $OUST posts popping up now, so there should be enough technical information for you to dive in.

I bought the stock at $20, added some more around $16, with average cost now around $18.

I do want to warn investors though. This stock needs time and relies heavily on the SAFE LiDAR act to fully develop.

At this moment the LiDAR space is heavily dominated by Chinese producers. The Act will prevent this but will take time. It’s not that when the act is operational (June 26’) that we’ll see an immediate impact on the revenues of Ouster.

I expect customers to buy some exyra Chinese cheap LiDAR before switching to a more expensive American supplier.

The switch will happen though and Ouster will benefit from it. It’s a great stock which I think will move to $40 over time. Treat as a safe stock you know will go up over time but don’t expect it to hit crazy numbers soon.

After the recent stellar earnings of $OUST, I decided to open a position yesterday. I bought the stock at $20.

The main reason I'm so bullish is because of a massive shift happening right now in the automation space.

How do they make money?
