Interesting Stocks

[BlueWolf]

Here are some micro/small caps I found that I like: AIR, CARL, EGBN, LPTH, and NRIM. Right now I am not in any of them, I’m am just watching them closely for possible entries. I have set up triggering events for each of them based on their charts and valuations. I encourage you to take a look and do your own research. Maybe you’ll see what I liked about them. Feel free to ask questions or discuss them. DISCLAIMER: Keep in mind that micro caps are inherently more risky than stocks with larger market caps and trading volume.

Yes, SKHY is definitely hitting 200 first, and if you got it for 150 last month, you're set! But I think SPCX is a better long-term hold, because it could (and this is just a maybe, for sure) weather the AI bubble burst just fine, since it's still got its rockets to fall back on. SKHY will likely be reduced back to $40 or under when the free money dries up.

I agree. I definitely bought SPCX as a long term investment.

SPCX is definitely doing well, but I still think 200 is a little ambitious for the end of the year. I’ll take it if I get it, though. SK Hynix (SKHY) is also doing well, and I expect that in the short term, it will do better than SPCX.

And now it's at around 154.... keeps on ticking up, and at this pace will likely be at 200 again in just a few months!

Well look at that, 144 right now! I wouldn't be surprised to see SPCX hit 200 again this year... of course ECHO will take a while longer to get there, but next year seems very reasonable to me to expect a $200 SPCX share price. ECHO is even showing some signs of life today! Goooo SPCX!! Launch those satellites!!!

[BlueWolf]

Nope. I'm already as fully invested in SPCX as I want to be, through my position in ECHO. It's underwater, as I bought ECHO pre-ipo at 115, and it's now trading at 90. But I am still convinced that both SPCX and ECHO will be trading well over 200 by the end of next year. Would have loved to sell ECHO at 180 when SPCX hit that number, but alas it didn't go as I had hoped.

I don’t know about SPCX being over 200 by the end of the year, but I still believe 2027 will be a good year for them. I saw an interview with Musk in which he claimed the SPCX would have $1 trillion in revenue by 2030. That would be awesome, but Musk can be a little given to hyperbole. If he did achieve that number, the stock would be a 10 banger.

Good call on the bottom. Did you buy some? Anything can happen between now and Nov 3.

You sees? What did I say? SPCX is up to 130 already today! If you got in for 110 last week, you've already got a 15% winner right here...

I think we might have seen the bottom for SPCX put in today at 105. If the earnings report comes out it and makes the analysts happy, it should easily pop right back into the 130s and even higher next week. Just my gut feel here. It's bound to be a highly volatile year for this one, but whoever got in under 110 probably has a good long-term entry on SPCX.

Looks like AMD is making a major play to take some AI share away from NVDA with their Helios system. I’m already holding some AMD or I might be tempted to buy more. Where is INTC in all this? What happened to them? They seem to have been taken completely by surprise by the AI revolution. The only thing that has saved them was some government intervention.

I think it's as simple as you've put it. INTC got too big and lazy, lost their edge to the competition (like NVDA and TSMC). This happens to big monopolies all the time (AAPL is probably the next one to go this route). Only thing going for them now is US gov't backing. That explains why the whole AI revolution was missed, and why other outfits are doing much better than they are.

I’m such a coward when it comes to buying stocks going into earnings. It’s rare that I will open a position in a stock right before earnings. I’ve had my eye on ABNB for a little while now. I just really like the business. I held off buying, though, because they were scheduled to report on Aug 6. Well, sure enough, it popped today after an excellent earnings report including upbeat guidance. It was basing at a high too in the days just prior. I should have pulled the trigger. What a chicken I am.

I’m sitting on a lot of cash right now after selling into the last two rallies, but I’m on the fence about a lot of stocks. I did buy some BE, COHR, and SKHY over the last 3 days, but that’s about it. I’m kind of tech heavy in my portfolio right now which makes me a little nervous, but I’m not convinced the AI bubble is quite ready to burst. The demand for power and chips is not likely to resolve itself soon because of the enormous backlog. You still can’t buy memory chips at a decent price.

The X factor in the tech world right now is the new Nvidia RTX Spark chip. How much of an impact is this all-in-one architecture on a chip going to have? It certainly looks like it has some performance advantages over the old discrete architecture of PCs. Since it’s ARM-based, though, will developers be willing to abandon their x86-based software development infrastructure and migrate to the ARM platform? My understanding is that the old x86 software will still run in emulation mode on the Spark, albeit with a performance penalty because of all the translation overhead. Other than NVidia directly, is there an investment opportunity here? Is Spark going to take off?
