$AAPL Bullish2026-09-113 entriesiPhone Duo is a strong product expected to sell out immediately; the $2,000 launch price is lower than anticipated, creating upside potential for future iterations.

$MSFT Bullish2026-09-043 entriesMicrosoft's recent stock recovery is attributed to its separation from Sam Altman and end of OpenAI exclusivity, improving positioning for cheaper AI models.

$CRM Bearish2026-09-011 entrySalesforce is unlikely to make a new high due to persistent cost pressure threats.

$CRWD Bullish2026-09-011 entryCRWD is a permanent hold due to mandatory cyber security spending and expanding AI threat surfaces.

$NVDA Bullish2026-09-013 entriesNVDA is fundamentally healthy; its high net income reflects real operating earnings rather than asset markups, and it trades at a reasonable 17x forward P/E.

$SNOW Bullish2026-09-011 entryLong SNOW due to its role as a key AI data layer; position held with a stop-loss in case of poor earnings results.

$YOU Bullish2026-09-011 entryBought small position in Clear Secure; speculative but has strong revenue/FCF growth and long-term upside potential.

$META Bearish2026-08-281 entryMeta's AI spend does not drive growth; core ads face user decline/regulatory issues; potential debt needs and lower guidance signal weakness.

$ORCL Bearish2026-08-281 entryOracle is fundamentally weak (flat real revenue, disorganized) and overvalued; stock should decline further from current levels.

$AXP Bearish2026-08-261 entryAXP is bearish due to concerns about white collar America being in deep trouble.

$WZRD Bearish2026-08-261 entryWZRD has lost 96% in 2026, the worst performance among US listed funds, notable in a bull market.

$ABNB No side taken2026-08-251 entryAirbnb is performing well with strong growth and AI initiatives, but its high valuation (above 50x earnings) poses a risk of underperformance, as historical data shows negative returns for such stocks.

$AVGO Bearish2026-08-251 entryBroadcom's fundamentals are strong, but its stock faces downward pressure on multiples due to prior pricing and intense competition in the next upgrade cycle.

$CSCO No side taken2026-08-251 entryCisco's fundamentals were strong with 20% annual growth, but overvaluation led to poor outcomes, a lesson relevant today.

$DAL Bullish2026-08-251 entryDelta is a buy; it is the best-run airline, and AI-driven pricing and baggage technology could boost profitability by up to 50%, raising margins from 10% to 15%, assuming the economy holds.

$LYV Bullish2026-08-251 entryLive Nation remains a strong operator; the settlement is not a new threat and will not harm the company.

$MRVL Bearish2026-08-251 entryMRVL faces multiple compression due to intense competition in the next upgrade cycle, despite strong custom ASIC business.

$NFLX Bullish2026-08-251 entryNetflix is undervalued and misunderstood; the speaker remains bullish and holds a position.

$RSP No side taken2026-08-251 entryRSP's asset growth to $100B indicates investor preference for diversified market exposure over AI-concentrated risk.

$SPOT Bullish2026-08-251 entrySpotify is a top media business, misunderstood by the market, and will be added to the best stocks list and reach triple digits.

$XLB Bullish2026-08-251 entryXLB ETF looks strong, with many components working that are underappreciated.

$TLT Bearish2026-08-241 entryTLT has been a poor investment over the last six years, with negative compounding, and its role as a portfolio hedge is now questioned.
