@aleabitoreddit While synthetic content floods most platforms, Reddit’s authentic, high-signal discussions remain one of the few scalable sources of genuine human reasoning and cultural context. The 69% revenue growth + 91%+ gross margins with positive FCF signal the flywheel is finally turning.
Curious: as model training shifts from scale to quality + verification, do you see Reddit becoming a critical upstream partner for frontier labs (similar to how Scale AI or even traditional data providers operate), or will they lean more into their own consumer/AI product roadmap?
@MB_Hogan Like the conviction at 97% while staying valuation-disciplined. $317 PT at 8-10x ARR feels grounded if execution hits.
What multiple do you see it earning if they deliver strong ARR growth + margin expansion over the next 12 months?
Daniel, thank you for sharing the transparency and conviction behind this rotation. Selling at ~$116.7k to reallocate into AI infrastructure was a high-conviction move.With Bitcoin now trading significantly lower, I'm curious how you're assessing the position today. Has the relative performance of your AI equities met or exceeded expectations so far? Would you make the same call again with the benefit of hindsight, or has the experience refined your view on the crypto-to-AI capital rotation thesis?Looking forward to your thoughts as the market evolves.
Fully agree @ParadisLabs smart capital from MTSI + noteholders de-risks the story nicely with minimal overhang. Photonics inflection is real (already > Wireless), and that CEO call on InP/AI data center demand as a 2026+ material driver is the key signal.
Short-term dips feel like post-raise noise/profit taking more than anything structural. Long-term setup in the AI photonics supply chain looks attractive if they execute. Positioned well. 💪 $IQE
Bold take, but calling META the 'obvious' AI winner feels like 2021 metaverse vibes all over again Sure, ads are printing money now thanks to AI tweaks... but when the next privacy hammer drops or TikTok/whoever eats more share, that 20% CAGR might evaporate faster than Zuck's metaverse budget. Cloud bros have sticky enterprise cash cows—Meta's got attention spans and ad blockers. Still, at 18x it's tempting... just don't bet the house before the next earnings drama!
My Forced 5-Year AI Infrastructure Basket (mid-2026 edition)
These are the stocks I’d hold through any drawdown because they attack the REAL bottlenecks that aren’t going away: networking fabric, memory walls, power/cooling limits, and the copper-to-optical revolution.$ANET → The king of AI Ethernet switches. When clusters hit 100k+ GPUs, networking becomes the #1 limiter. Arista’s winning hyperscaler deals hand over fist.
$AVGO → Custom XPUs + optical DSPs + networking ASICs. Embedded in every major hyperscaler’s secret silicon sauce. Optical transition is their rocket fuel.
$MU → High-Bandwidth Memory (HBM) powerhouse. After GPUs, memory is the new choke point. Supply stays tight for years as training & inference scale.
$VRT → Liquid cooling & power infrastructure. AI racks are melting data centers. Vertiv is the undisputed picks-and-shovels winner here.
$COHR → Photonics, lasers & optical components. Nvidia & hyperscalers are dumping billions to kill power-hungry copper. Coherent is perfectly positioned.
$ALAB → PCIe/CXL/Ethernet connectivity glue for massive disaggregated clusters. The hidden enabler of next-gen AI scale.
AI isn’t “just buy more GPUs” anymore. The physics & economics bottlenecks have shifted — and these names solve them with multi-year secular tailwinds.Valuations aren’t sleepy. Volatility will be brutal. But these feel like the highest-conviction long-term compounders in the entire AI stack right now.
Not financial advice. DYOR. 5+ year horizon only.

@jzrdan Smart move sitting out the initial frenzy and watching how it trades post-hype. Long-term believer here too, but entry price matters.
What multiple do you think would feel reasonable?
$GOOGL the $SPCX IPO at $1.75T is one half of the $275B in unrealized gains sitting on Google’s balance sheet. the Anthropic IPO is the other half. both getting marked to market this year and neither has been priced in yet. What are your thoughts on $GOOGL price action ?

TSMC the worlds biggest chip maker just dropped some exciting hints:
Their chairman said Co Packaged Optics (CoPoS) a super fast way for chips to connect using light will become huge in just 2 to 3 years. They are already testing it now at their subsidiary VisEra. Many thought this tech was still far away but the market is waking up. This could be a big long term opportunity for TSM and VisEra into 2027 2028.
TSMC also named self driving cars and autonomous robots as major growth areas. The auto chip sector has been in a slump for 2 years but with Waymo robot taxis everywhere it feels like the bottom is in. Great validation for companies like $XFAB.
Hottest photonic and semiconductor stocks getting tailwinds: $LITE, $COHR, $AAOI, $SIVE, $POET, $FN, and GFS.Small comments like this from leaders often signal whats coming next.
Bullish on AI + autonomy long term? What are your thoughts?
