Monster Beverage: Buy This Global Energy Drink Champion With More Room To Run
Demonstrates ability to gain market share across nearly all regions, supported by strong performance of the Ultra line, which posted over 29% growth in the U.S. market. Strengthens global brand positioning while preserving margins, indicating disciplined pricing strategy and efficient cost control. Early penetration in major emerging markets such as China and India suggests a long runway for growth, with increases above 40% and 54% respectively.
Meta's Next Idea Could Be Bigger Than The Smartphone
Meta Platforms, Inc. remains a Strong Buy as recent 11% dip is a buying opportunity, not a warning. META's AI-driven ad business is compounding revenue growth, with Advantage+ and Reels generating $60B and $50B annual run rates, respectively. AI CapEx concerns are overblown; META funds investments from a strong cash position and robust free cash flow.
Nvidia: The TPU Risks Look Heavily Overblown
Recent rotation from Nvidia Corporation into Alphabet/Google on TPU enthusiasm created a buyable dip, despite Nvidia still owning the default, general‑purpose AI compute platform across clouds. Nvidia's moat rests on its vertically integrated AI racks—Grace CPUs, Hopper/Blackwell GPUs, Mellanox networking, and CUDA software—rather than raw chip speed, locking in developers and enterprises. TPUs may gain share within Google Cloud, but NVDA's platform remains the industry standard for general-purpose AI workloads.

Roku remains a great buy as it rebounds from the established Q4 '25 support levels, with the market putting their prior lumpy platform margin concerns behind them. ROKU's ramping up of the Amazon DSP partnership may accelerate the former's advertising monetization, allowing them to tap into the growing CTV ad market size of $46.89B in 2028. This builds upon the robust subscription growth as observed in the streaming share expansion, aided by the completed Frndly TV acquisition and the recent launch of the ad-free tier, Howdy.
Pfizer: The Market Is Still Wrong About It
Pfizer's stock rebounded from April lows yet still trades as if COVID and patent cliffs equal business ruin, despite resilient non‑COVID franchises and pipeline optionality. Q3 looked weak, with revenue and EPS down year-over-year, yet both beat estimates as Vyndaqel, Nurtec, and Padcev collectively offset fading COVID contributions. Pfizer's adjusted margin stayed near seventy‑six percent, and OPEX fell, while a $1.5 billion manufacturing optimization program should expand margins and earnings by 2027.
National Beverage's Inconsistent Special Dividends Are Its Main Appeal
National Beverage offers a compelling 4.6% estimated forward yield via special dividends, appealing to income-focused investors despite inconsistent payouts. FIZZ's core La Croix brand faces market share pressure from larger competitors, and revenue growth has slowed to low single digits. Management's new stock buyback plan and improving margins support EPS growth, but the stock remains slightly overvalued with a projected price target 10% below current levels.
What's Behind Barrick Mining's 154% Surge?
