Rotation is the lifeblood of a prolonged bull market.
If leading stocks and groups consolidate or god forbid pullback, it’d be bullish for the longevity of this run.
You don’t want stocks going up to infinity without taking a breather, that’s how you end up with crashes.
Two things have to happen for $MU to be worth it at today's prices:
1) The shortage lasts for at least two-three more years with only very weak signs of stopping. (80%+ GM for foreseeable future)
2) The market decides to re-rate $MU as non-cyclical
Both are entirely possible. But it's important to understand these are the two things that have to do ALL of the lifting
Garry Tan expecting 90,000x more inference over the next 24-36 months is wild. $NVDA and other AI companies may be criminally undervalued by several orders or magnitude. This is early innings.

$OUST is now up 173% since my $23 average cost.
-> Deep dive given out March 23rd.
-> Countless X posts even on days where $OUST dropped 16% in a day.
-> Most importantly paid subs saw exactly where I bought notified to the second fully transparently.
Congratulations to all so far on $OUST but just a reminder it's only at $3.7B MC today.
Earnings expected to peak in 2027 and then decline
These stocks appear "cheap" for a reason and historically, they have peaked months before the growth deceleration began. $MU #Samsung#memory

We’re probably not far off from the first major headline about a company using AI to help cure a major disease or discover a revolutionary new treatment.
Price speaks before news and healthcare + genomics has been speaking.
Once that happens the group can go parabolic.
Every couple of months I post our top positions at @FirstWaveFund and since we sent our May investor letter a few days ago I don’t mind sharing those positions... here are the top 12 in alphabetical order:
AAOI, ALAB, APP, CRDO, HIMS, HROW, IREN, MELI, MU, NBIS, RDDT, TMDX
All estimates are my own. Every company mentioned in this post has risks so please do your own research and form your own opinions, thesis and conviction. Please don't waste your time asking me where I'd be buying or trimming... because I won't answer.
I spend alot of time building our models and thinking through all the possible variables and catalysts that will impact the reported financials but in reality trying to predict revenues, margins, dilution and earnings in CY2028 or FY2029 is not easy.

I considered buying $MU in early 2025 but didn’t pull the trigger and do proper DD, and missed the run up. Is it still a buy at current levels? I believe there’s at least a few years of runway left with this name, along with some others like $ALAB
they’re not jobs if they’re not valued. they’re not valued if there aren’t customers out there willing to pay them for their great work. needing the government to “create” a job is tantamount to welfare and that level of welfare resolves these individuals to a dependency on the government and lack of economic mobility. and chains our people, collectively, to a more indentured future.
you may be well intentioned but you have, and always will, fail to see the destitute folly of government as a job creation engine.
i have tried to engage you on this topic, in good faith, with empiricism and reasoning, but you have only dodged my points and pivoted to some populist refrain about the importance of taxation and the evils of productivity-driven success.
i can only assume you’re dodging these truths because you and the rest of the politburo leadership have deemed the conversation unsafe speech and put your oligopoly at risk.
let’s leave it at that then.
perhaps if your ways get their day, we can all bask in the glories of the dark ages ahead.
The $SPCX + $TSLA merger is going to melt people’s brains.
Robotics, autonomous vehicles, energy storage, LLMs, batteries, rockets, chips, compute, connectivity, satellites, solar, etc. all under one roof.
It’s inevitable.
