Sellas Life Sciences: The AML Platform Is More Interesting Than The Binary Event
SELLAS Life Sciences is advancing a dual-path AML franchise with GPS nearing pivotal Phase 3 REGAL readout and SLS009 progressing in high-risk AML settings.

Mitsubishi Electric's Valuation May Be A Little Rich
Mitsubishi Electric Corporation delivers solid revenue and operating growth, supported by electrification, semiconductor, datacenter, and defense investments. Despite restructuring costs, operating profit rose, with the life segment—air conditioning and building systems—remaining the largest EBIT contributor. Life is expected to be one of the more important growers in FY27, and it is the highest multiple business, but it doesn't appear to be enough for value.

The Biggest Risk to Nvidia's Stock Price That Almost Nobody Is Talking About
Nvidia's revenue has exploded alongside the AI boom, but its fate is tied to the massive capital expenditures of just a handful of big tech companies. Big tech has deferred the true cost of AI spending, and when those expenses hit earnings, companies may be pressured to cut back on chip orders.

Lowe's: Best Time To Buy Since COVID
Lowe's Companies faces near-term pressure amid inflationary and tariff headwinds. These headwinds have driven LOW's valuation to multiple-year lows, with a P/CFO of 12.7x and a forward dividend yield of 2.25%. I believe the geopolitical issues will eventually fade, and LOW is taking the right initiative to sustain long-term EPS growth.

IREN Rallies as AI Pivot Drives $4.4 Billion ARR Outlook Beyond Bitcoin Mining
IREN Limited ($IREN) has extended its rally in 2026, rising 27.3% year-to-date as investors increasingly price the company as an 'AI infrastructure' play rather than a pure Bitcoin (BTC) miner. The outperformance stands out against a broader pullback in parts of the financial services universe, underscoring how quickly capital is rotating toward GPU-powered compute capacity and long-duration contracted revenue models.
PagSeguro Is Too Cheap At 5x Earnings
PagSeguro Digital trades at ~5x forward earnings, below book value, and is rated Buy due to excessive valuation discount. PAGS faces flat payment volume growth, with earnings increasingly driven by banking, credit, funding-cost improvements, and aggressive capital returns. Credit expansion is both the main opportunity and risk; working capital loans grew 190% YoY, but credit quality must remain controlled.

Aramark: Demand Is Strong, And Nexus Is A New Growth Driver
I am upgrading Aramark to buy as commercial momentum is now translating into visible revenue and margin improvement. ARMK's organic revenue grew 12% in Q2 2026, with broad-based strength and >98% client retention, supporting a durable growth thesis. Nexus, targeting hyperscale AI data centers, offers a new, higher-margin growth driver not yet reflected in FY2026 guidance.

Pony AI: Buying The Wuhan Whiplash
Pony.ai (PONY) is deeply undervalued after a market overreaction to regulatory concerns, despite strong Q1 results and raised 2026 guidance. PONY achieved unit operating break-even in core Chinese cities, reported 145% YoY revenue growth, and projects 350% robotaxi revenue growth by 2026. The asset-light model, robust safety record, and edge computing architecture position PONY to benefit from upcoming regulatory tightening post-Wuhan incident.

Bumble: Leverage And AI Reset Makes It A Speculative Hold
Bumble Inc. trades at distressed valuation multiples, reflecting deep market skepticism despite solid EBIT margins and ROIC. I see BMBL as a highly speculative Hold, contingent on a successful AI-driven product overhaul and halting paid user declines. Execution risk is severe: the paid user base fell ~23% YoY, and leverage covenants are tightening amid costly debt refinancing.

Over September 2021–May 2026, SPRX delivered a 9.2% active return (with IVV as a benchmark) and an almost 185% upside capture ratio. Growth characteristics of its portfolio of 28 stocks are notably stronger than QQQM's, especially its 57.7% forward EBITDA growth rate.

XRP Slides Toward $1 Despite ETF Inflows and Ongoing XRPL Developments
