$CRWD This may be the first time that we actually see a software company of substantial scale, actually realize ARR accleration due to AI. I don’t mean say big words, I mean, literally, accelerate its large ARR base with new scale.
This result, if people are careful to read it, can turn the bearish AI narrative that it won’t ever make anyone any money other than the chip companies, totally upside down.
My mind is blown away reading the 109 page SEBI order on Rajesh Exports… not that its surprising given some in last few yrs had called it a fraud but shocked on the size of it and how a Rs 3,000 crore market cap company may potentially be heading towards ZERO.! 😲
This is not a normal accounting issue. This is SEBI practically alleging that out of nearly Rs 15.45 lakh crore consolidated revenue reported over 5 years, close to Rs 15.15 lakh crore revenue itself may have been misrepresented. Yes, you read it right - lakh crore.
And the most shocking part?
The core operating subsidiary, Valcambi SA, whose numbers supposedly drove the entire global scale of the group, reportedly showed only a few hundred crores of standalone revenue annually in audited Swiss accounts. Meanwhile, the holding structure above it magically showed revenues running into several lakh crores.
SEBI’s allegation is brutally simple in layman terms: A refining business which allegedly earned only processing charges/value addition was shown at group level as if the company owned and traded the entire value of gold flowing through the system.
Imagine a toll booth operator claiming ownership of every car crossing the highway and booking the value of all cars as its own revenue. That is broadly what SEBI is questioning here.
The order repeatedly mentions:
• No proper invoices
• No customer/vendor level breakup
• No ERP access
• No journal dumps
• No confirmations
• Missing subsidiary financials
• “Swiss confidentiality laws” being cited to deny information
SEBI has also highlighted that even the forensic auditor BDO India faced severe non cooperation.
What makes this even more serious is that this is an ex parte interim order. Meaning SEBI has passed the order based on its own investigation and material gathered, without relying on cooperation from the company side. Regulators generally do not go this aggressive unless they believe the findings are extremely serious.
The statutory auditor named in the order is BSD & Co, a mid sized Bengaluru based audit firm along with P V Ramana Reddy & Co. SEBI has specifically mentioned non submission of working papers and missing subsidiary records.
Another fascinating angle:
The annual reports reportedly show borrowings of around Rs 1,000 crore, but there is very limited clarity on which banks gave these loans and against what underlying audited cash flows.
This may go down as one of the most dramatic accounting fraud allegations ever seen in Indian capital markets post Satyam..
If even a fraction of SEBI’s findings sustain, this is not just a corporate governance failure. This is a complete collapse of reported financial reality.
Absolutely insane reading.!

Congrats to everyone holding $ONDS. The company absolutely smashed it.
This is one of those stocks you just buy and forget. I genuinely believe it's going to follow the same path as Rocket Lab. The best way I can describe ONDS is as a highly diversified robotics company.
Now, a few people are suddenly claiming they always called this one and saw the potential from day one. The reality is very few people actually bought this stock believing it would become one of the biggest drone companies in the world.
As someone who first bought at $1.80 and added it to my long term portfolio with a 10x price target at $18, I can tell you there were only a handful of voices talking about ONDS back then. The two that stood out were @SaiseiInvesting and @ive_m5. They were among the earliest. There were a few others worth mentioning too, but those two led the way.
Jeff Bezos said the bottom half of Americans should pay zero federal income tax.
He cited a nurse in Queens making ~$75K and paying ~$12K in taxes saying “we shouldn’t be asking this nurse in Queens to send money to Washington.”
THE $ONDS x $PLTR RELATIONSHIP IS COMPLETELY UNDERESTIMATED BY THE MARKET 🧠
Think about what it means to walk into a defense negotiation with $PLTR as your partner.
Not as a customer of $PLTR, not as a reseller of $PLTR, but as a company that $PLTR chose to build with, go to market alongside, and architecturally embed their core AI platform into.
This changes everything about the negotiation before a single word is spoken.
The credibility transfer is immediate.
$PLTR generated $687M in US government revenue in Q1 2026 alone.
Their Maven Smart System was designated a formal DoW program of record in March 2026, embedded across every branch of the military simultaneously.
The Pentagon awarded $PLTR an enterprise agreement worth up to $10B over a decade.
They are not a vendor to the US military, they are foundational infrastructure.
When a company of that caliber forms a strategic partnership with you, that’s an endorsement no marketing budget can replicate.
The access is real:
Oppenheimer’s research note published May 14 called the $PLTR partnership likely being underappreciated, specifically citing critical inroads to US agencies to help capture programs and contracts.
Defense procurement is relationship-driven.
Procurement officers buy from companies they know, in architectures they trust, through programs they have already approved.
When $ONDS pursues a new program, they are not starting from zero in a room they have never entered.
They are entering through a door that $ONDS already holds open across every branch of the US military.
The architecture eliminates the integration objection.
Will it work with what we already have?
Who is responsible when it breaks?
How long will it take to connect to our existing systems?
$ONDS can now answer every one of those questions before they are asked:
SkyWeaver runs on Palantir AIP, delivering finished intelligence through Maven, the DoW’s designated program of record for AI-enabled military intelligence across every combatant command.
It populates Palantir Foundry environments that the customer may already have deployed. The integration question disappears because the architecture is already approved, already funded, and already embedded in the systems the customer is running.
The competitive dynamic shifts fundamentally.
Every competitor $ONDS faces in a program pursuit now has to explain why their solution is better than one built on the same AI infrastructure that the entire US military is standardizing on.
That is not a question most competitors can answer well.
It changes the burden of proof in every competitive evaluation from $ONDS having to prove their AI is good enough to competitors having to prove why their AI is better than the DoW’s own designated standard.
The signal to acquired companies matters too.
Hartman confirmed the $PLTR partnership is helping define repeatable integration patterns that make future acquisitions easier to absorb.
Every company $ONDS acquires going forward comes into an ecosystem that is already connected to $PLTR’s government relationships, already running on AIP, and already recognized by defense procurement offices as part of the Maven architecture.
The $ONDS acquisition pitch to a target company now includes access to $PLTR’s customer relationships as a day-one benefit of joining the platform.
Ryan Hartman described the pace of all of this on the Q1 earnings call:
They only started developing with $PLTR in January 2026.
They moved from roadmap to deployed capability in weeks.
The partnership is already improving operating cadence, integrating acquired companies faster, and coordinating joint customer pursuits across shared program opportunities.
This is not a logo on a slide deck, it is an operational and commercial transformation that is already underway.
Q4 2026 is when the full portfolio integration begins and the financial model begins to reflect what that transformation is worth.
NFA.
$ONDS might be setting up for the one of the most explosive technical moves of 2026 👀
We all know this name has been rangebound for months, we all know how stubborn the $11.70-$12 range has been, and we all know that MMs are highly active in $ONDS as they profit from volatility.
Patience is required here, but the payoff could be huge if you’re positioned before the move actually happens.
Eventually, I believe buying pressure will be overwhelming, and the momentum to the upside will catch most people offsides.
Not financial advice. Just my assessment of what’s happening.

Great to be featured in the Wall Street Journal today talking about the $CBRS IPO.
Cerebras is attacking one of the biggest bottlenecks in the AI economy like running massive models faster, cheaper and more efficiently as the world shifts from training to inference deployment.
But the difference between a great company and a great stock is entry price. At a ~$70B valuation, Cerebras is already being priced like a major AI infrastructure winner before I've even seen multiple quarters of execution.
Looks more of a market swelling due to Memory (not even entire semiconductor play) rather than an overall well rounded growth. If the ai bubble collapse the demand will vaporize in a day and these become a meme stock?
