Why GameStop’s Higher Profit Does Not Resolve Its Shrinking-Retail Problem
$GameStop(GME)$’s preliminary second-quarter figures show why it is increasingly difficult to value the company as a conventional retailer. Operating income rose despite substantially lower sales, but investment gains and capital-structure decisions now influence earnings as much as game and collectible demand. GameStop announced on August 31 preliminary results for the 13 weeks ended August 1. Net sales are expected at $780–$800 million, down from $972.2 million a year earlier, reflecting store closures, the France divestiture and the prior-year Nintendo Switch 2 launch. Operating income is expected at $150–$170 million, versus $66.4 million, while net income is expected at $290–$310 million. GameStop’s SEC-filed release provides the preliminary r

The recent Marvell Technology (MRVL) sell-off is actually a useful lesson for beginners: a company can report excellent growth and still see its stock fall. Marvell reported Q2 FY2027 revenue of $2.739 billion, up 37% year over year, while data-center revenue grew 46%. It also raised its FY2027 revenue outlook to about $12 billion and FY2028 to about $18 billion. So, when investing in semiconductor and AI-hardware stocks, don’t simply ask “Are earnings good?” You also need to ask: What is the company selling, who are its customers, how fast is demand growing, what are margins doing, and how much growth is already priced into the stock? ⸻ 🔥 1. First: What Exactly Does Marvell Do? Think of Marvell as a company that provides the infrastructure behind AI data centers. It isn’t primarily sellin

Apple's Succession: The Ultimate Test of Greatness Is the Post-Founder Era
Recently, Apple completed yet another change at the helm, with its third-generation successor officially taking the reins of this trillion-dollar juggernaut. This moment made me reflect: a company that has endured for over fifty years, navigating multiple leadership transitions without losing its course or its innovative edge, does not rely on the irreplaceability of any single genius. Rather, it is sustained by a system of institutions and culture deeply embedded within the organization. From Jobs to Cook, and now to the new generation, each Apple transition has been as smooth as a finely tuned clock. Behind this lies the systematic transmission of values through Apple University, the process-driven operation of supply chains and product roadmaps, and the long-term planning of board gover

Fed Chair - Kevin Warsh. On Fri, 28 Aug 2026 at the US central bank‘s annual economic policy symposium at Jackson Hole, Wyoming, new Fed chair Kevin Warsh spoke on his 100th day as Chairman. This was a much-awaited speech as the new Fed chair has unilaterally decided to adopt a less interactive, significantly scaled-back approach to how the central bank communicates with the public and financial markets. Rather than maintaining the highly talkative, guiding role of his predecessors, Warsh has initiated a "quiet revolution" aimed at restoring mystery and removing the market's over-reliance on the central bank. He has even suggested scaling back the number of FOMC meetings to six from eight. This is still a discussion-in-progress. Jackson Hole, Wyoming Speech. At Jackson Hole, Kevin Warsh us
Index going up. Look for undervalued stocks now. Photonics, and memory is dipping. Can buy the dip. Some software like $AppLovin Corporation(APP)$ and $Oracle(ORCL)$ also have not recover. Lastly, $Alibaba(BABA)$ also dropped after earnings. Insiders bought. All these stocks can buy for September
AMZN, META, HIMS, HOOD& NVDA : AI Drives the Prices Fly?
Hello everyone! Today i want to share some trading ideas with you! 1 Anthropic has signed a $35B cloud deal with $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ backed Lambda to expand its AI compute capacity. What makes the deal more interesting is that Nvidia also supplies the GPUs and already secured the $Hut 8 Mining Corp(HUT)$ data center capacity where that compute will run. 2 $Robinhood(HOOD)$ banking push is starting to become a meaningful part of the platform with Robinhood Banking now crossing $4B in assets. CEO Vlad Tenev says the growth is “a sign of how much trust customers are placing in us with their money.” 3
$NBIS Outpaces $IREN as AI Cloud Execution Widens the Gap
Hey everyone 👋 $IREN Ltd(IREN)$ and $NEBIUS(NBIS)$ started the year in very different places. While $IREN is down about 5% YTD, $NBIS has surged 143%. So what explains the huge performance gap? A few factors stand out. 👇 1️⃣ $NBIS has less Bitcoin exposure $IREN is still exposed to Bitcoin mining economics. With Bitcoin prices under pressure, mining revenue is taking a hit. At the same time, the company is retiring mining equipment and recording significant impairments. $NBIS doesn't have the same drag. 2️⃣ AI cloud revenue is accelerating This is probably the biggest difference. $IREN generated about $71M in AI revenue, compared with roughly $582M for $NBIS. Investors are rewarding $NBIS for turning its
There’s a pretty interesting debate around $Take-Two(TTWO)$ right now. The argument is simple: Wall Street may be modeling GTA 6 as a big game launch, while the market could be underestimating what happens if it becomes a once-in-a-generation hit. 🚀 Take-Two is currently guiding to $8.0B–$8.2B in FY2027 net bookings, with GTA VI scheduled for November 19, 2026. But the bullish case goes much further. 💰 GTA 6 could reset the revenue curve GTA V became one of the most successful entertainment products ever released, generating more than $1B in its first three days and continuing to monetize through GTA Online for years. The bull case for GTA VI is that Rockstar doesn't simply repeat that formula. The new game is launching after a 13-year gap, with a
The Singapore Tug Of War: Resilient Factories vs The Higher Cost of Living
🌟🌟🌟Living and investing in Singapore right now feels like standing at the intersection of a high tech explosion and an expensive trip to the local hawker centre. Just as the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) dropped its latest consumer data showing MAS Core Inflation creeping up to a hot 2.0% year on year, the Economic Development Board delivered a thunderous response on Wednesday August 26 2026. Our manufacturing factories exploded with a 6.8% expansion in output, driven by a massive global AI semiconductor boom. The economy is running hot, the factories are humming but the creeping prices of utilities, food and daily services is reminding us that inflation refuses to go gently into the night.

Iren Q2 2026: Sayonara Bitcoin and Hello AI Cloud!
Thursday, $IREN Ltd(IREN)$ released its Q2 2026 earnings report, and the market clearly didn’t like it, sending the stock down 13%. This was because the company posted a huge ADJ EBITDA and EPS miss, driven by lower Bitcoin revenues, higher operating expenses, and a massive $450M impairment of Bitcoin mining equipment! A reminder that Iren is decommissioning Bitcoin ming mining equipment and replacing it with Nvidia GPUs to serve the growing demand for AI compute. Furthermore, the street was shocked when Iren announced it expects to spend $25-30B on capex in the next 12 months! This is more than double the consensus street estimates of $12.8B. I honestly don’t understand how this could be shocking to anyone who has been following the company. I gu
The commercialization of large models is gaining momentum!
Tencent's open-source release of the Hunyuan Hy4 Preview (MoE architecture, 49B activated parameters, one-million-token context window) and ByteDance's launch of its Doubao AI office products mark a pivotal shift in China's AI-powered office sector—from technology incubation to large-scale commercial deployment. Open-sourcing lowers the barrier for enterprise adoption, while ByteDance strengthens its B-end subscription-based monetization, underscoring a clear industry trend. Institutions believe that large-model applications have now entered a phase where they are "usable, user-friendly, and trustworthy," benefiting media companies with strengths in tool integration, content distribution, and deep scenario-specific capabilities.$腾讯控股(
Nvidia's $12.9 Billion Hugging Face Buy: the Next 3 Months Won't Be Boring
From selling shovels to building the highway, Jensen Huang is rewriting the rules of the AI game. Meanwhile, the market from September to November will face a pricing storm driven by three forces: macroeconomics, IPOs, and politics. I. $12.9 Billion: Buying Not Revenue, But the "Toll Booth of the AI World" On August 26, news shook the entire open-source AI community: $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ has agreed to acquire Hugging Face, the world's largest open-source AI collaboration platform, for $12.9 billion. This acquisition accelerates Nvidia's push toward full-stack AI ecosystem dominance. The drama of this deal lies in the fact that just at the end of 2025, Hugging Face had rejected a $500 million investment offer from Nvidia (at a roughly $7 billion valuatio
The More I Research CBRS, The More Excited I Get About the Potential IF
The more I research $Cerebras Systems(CBRS)$, the more excited I get about the potential IF: 1. They can 20x their throughput in a year. 2. They can bring costs down instead of relying on customers paying a huge premium. 3. IF they can expand beyond a handful of frontier customers to become the default for anyone who needs fast tokens at scale. I'm still not convinced that given the above, I'd be happy paying 25x NTM sales for it though. But there's no argument what they've developed is market leading. -> 43 petabytes/second of on chip memory bandwidth (~2,000x more than $NVIDIA(NVDA)$). -> 4,000 tokens/sec with CS-4 vs 100 on

Iggy's Journal: 4 SGX Stocks Are Paying Bigger Dividends This September. Here's Which Ones You Can Trust.
Iggy's Journal: 4 SGX Stocks Are Paying Bigger Dividends This September. Here's Which Ones You Can Trust. 31 August 2026, PM Video Release: New piece up. Four dividend increases hitting SGX this September, and I traced every single one back to its source before trusting the headline number. Three of them are not what they look like. APAC Realty's bigger payout came from drawing on reserves, not from operating cash flow. Boustead leaned on a one-off asset sale to fund its increase. Only one of the four actually grew into paying more, the rest borrowed the appearance of growth from somewhere else on the balance sheet. My Personal Take: A bigger cheque does not prove a stronger business, and this September's crop of increases is the cleanest example of that I've covered in a while. ST Enginee
This move played out exactly as mapped. The key was staying patient at support while everyone else was panic-selling the pullbacks. Completed Trade Recap Entry zone: $428.00 – $434.00 Target: $518.00 Invalidation: $408.00 (clean daily close below the key swing low) Why: The setup was based on a high-volume retest of the $425 breakout zone combined with bullish momentum divergence on the 4H chart and institutional volume stepping in off the 50-day moving average. Result: ✅ Target reached. Actual return: +21.0% Next Setup & Strategy I’m not chasing the move after taking profit. I’m waiting for another clean setup with defined risk. Right now, $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ is consolidating near the $465 region after taking out liquidity above $515
Why Pasqal’s Nasdaq Debut Prices Scientific Progress Years Before Commercial Scale
$Pasqal Holding SA(PSQL)$’s first Nasdaq session placed a public-market price on one of Europe’s leading neutral-atom quantum-computing companies. The technology is serious and the fresh capital is useful, but Friday’s violent price action showed how quickly a scientific thesis can become a valuation thesis. The business combination with Bleichroeder Acquisition Corp. II closed on August 27, after shareholders approved it on August 25, and Pasqal began trading as PSQL on August 28. The transaction delivered approximately $360 million at closing. The companies’ completion announcement confirms the chronology and proceeds. Pasqal traps and manipulates neutral atoms with lasers, an architecture intended to scale qubit counts while limiting some fabri
🚨 AI HARDWARE JUST CRACKED. IS THE AI TRADE SPLITTING IN TWO?
Something interesting happened across the AI trade this week. AI demand didn’t suddenly disappear. Data-centre spending didn’t collapse. The long-term AI story didn’t magically break overnight. Yet several AI hardware names were punished despite reporting numbers that, on the surface, looked strong. That tells me the market may be entering a different phase of the AI cycle. The question is no longer simply: “Is AI growing?” We already know the answer to that. The more important question might now be: “Which companies can grow fast enough to justify what investors are already paying for that growth?” And that distinction could become extremely important heading into September. 💥 MARVELL SHOWED US THE PROBLEM $MRVL is probably one of the clearest examples. Marvell delivered strong quarterly
