This feels like the type of days we were getting after the FTD.

(Anything can still happen though!)

If you just don’t trade the first hour of trading, you will do very well.

I try to wait until the EOD for trading to avoid any false starts.

@TaPlot Praying for you man

Bad result from $CRWD and no fight from $SNOW or $NOW today.

$TWLO still flying under the radar. 🤫

[Ghost Alpha @Ghostalpha]

$TWLO just had its best growth quarter in three years and nobody's talking about it. 20% revenue, 114% net expansion, profitable and buying back stock. Only question worth asking: does AI eventually eat the infrastructure it was built on.

1. Growth Driver
Best quarter in three years: 20% revenue growth, 16% organic, EPS beat consensus by 33%. The transformation from transactional SMS API to full AI-powered customer engagement platform is showing up in the numbers, with net expansion rate accelerating to 114%.

2. Earnings Quality
EPS beat is real but FCF is moving the wrong direction - operating cash margin dropped from 16% to 11% YoY while revenue grew. Carrier fee increases are eating 200bps of gross margin this year and management can't control that cost.

Verdict: Murky. Profitable and beating, but cash generation is going the wrong way.

3. Competitive Moat
Hundreds of thousands of developer integrations make Twilio sticky in the near term. Segment's customer data layer on top of the messaging stack is genuinely hard to replicate. The long-term moat question is whether AI agents eventually route around traditional messaging infrastructure entirely.

4. TAM and Runway
At $5B+ in revenue growing low-to-mid teens organically, this isn't hypergrowth - it's a profitable platform business re-rating toward margin expansion. Steady runway, not explosive.

5. Primary Risk
AI agents handling customer interactions natively is the slow-moving structural threat to the entire business model. Not a 2026 problem, but it's the ceiling the market will eventually price in. Near-term watch: gross margin compression from carrier fees.

Really strong RS from $TWLO today.

[Ghost Alpha @Ghostalpha]

What you have to understand about $TWLO is that it is NOT A SAAS. It's a platform for developers to build on.

If you are connecting your product to telephony, you're using Twilio. Point blank period.

@investingluc Very “explosive”

I’m NGL. $MXL is the worst stock I’ve ever owned. It’ll be the end of me.
