If you sign up for a 2 week free trial today during the Black Friday sale period, you will need to upgrade to a paid plan before Dec 1 to get the discounted prices.

The holiday‑shortened week (in the U.S.) shaves volume and heightens the importance of each data release and corporate update. Retailers and consumer‐facing firms are in focus. Barron's

Actionable Thesis:
Favor companies that are less sensitive to rate surprises (e.g., established industrials, stable consumer staples) and avoid high‐multiple growth names unless they show strong cash conversion and margin resilience. Keep some liquidity ready in case a rate cut surprise triggers a sharp relief rally.

NVIDIA’s Moat is Leaking: What the Google-Meta Alliance Means for AI Hardware
So Google and Meta are entering into an arrangement where Meta will not purchase TPUs from Google. This is the first time Google is selling TPUs. So far they have only rented them out.
|
This was bound to happen sooner or later. Nvidia's current monopoly cannot sustain forever. There are backlogs and long waits for the buyers to get their hands on Nvidia's latest GPUs.

That might surprise you, given how much ink gets spilled on Piotroski scores in value investing circles. But my process is different: I use it as a confirmation tool, not a discovery tool. Most of the cases, …

Managing Drawdowns: How I Protect Capital Without Losing Upside
|
|
|
|
In 2008, one of my portfolio positions fell 67% in four months. I had bought a small industrial company with a clean balance sheet, a long operating history, and what I thought was a conservative valuation.
