Only ~10% away from 2-year highs.

Power infrastructure is becoming one of the most important bottlenecks of the energy + AI era.

I give you:
BIG LEAD ASSEMBLY (BLA)

THIS IS A POTENTIAL EARLY-STAGE POWER INFRASTRUCTURE MONSTER

~$1.73B market cap
~45-50% North American utility-scale solar EBOS market share
~$758M record backlog + awarded orders
~$628M scheduled for delivery through Q1 2027
~75% YoY Q1 2026 revenue growth

~67 patents issued/pending
~93GW+ solar systems deployed globally
~13 of top 15 U.S. EPCs served
~1,480 employees
~13%+ of backlog now international

THIS IS THE MOMENT THE STORY CHANGES

Most people still think Shoals is “just wiring.”

That completely misses the point.

$SHLS is building the electrical backbone for:
Utility-scale solar
Battery storage
AI data centers
Critical power systems
EV charging
Microgrids
Grid modernization

Years of solar deployment later…

the company quietly became one of the most important “picks and shovels” players in large-scale electrification.

Why this is getting attention:

Shoals pioneered:
Plug-and-play EBOS infrastructure

Their patented:
BIG LEAD ASSEMBLY (BLA)

replaces traditional field wiring and crimping with prefabricated modular systems.

That changes everything.

Key advantages:

~Lower installation costs
~Faster deployment
~Less skilled labor required
~Lower failure rates
~Higher reliability
~Lower maintenance costs
~Factory-tested systems
~Reduced fire risk
~Improved project uptime
~Scalable modular architecture

Traditional utility-scale wiring is:
Slow
Labor-heavy
Error-prone
Expensive

Shoals industrialized the entire process.

And the AI angle is where this gets VERY interesting.

AI infrastructure is creating an unprecedented power demand shock.

Data center power demand is projected to explode this decade.

Hyperscalers need:
Fast deployment
Reliable uptime
Massive electrical scaling
Distributed backup power
Grid resiliency

Shoals is positioning directly into that bottleneck.

Recent catalysts:

Q1 2026 revenue:
~$140.6M
~75% YoY growth

Adjusted EBITDA:
~$21.1M
~56% YoY growth

Adjusted EPS:
~$0.07
Beat expectations.

Record backlog reached:
~$758M

Management raised full-year guidance.

Gross margin trough likely occurred in Q1 as the Mega Facility ramps.

Operating leverage now begins to matter.

Recent partnerships / contracts:

First Solar:
Long-term U.S. manufacturing partnership

https://t.co/eyQctuXDb8:
Multi-gigawatt AI data center critical power partnership

UGT Renewables + Sun Africa:
Potential 12GW international pipeline collaboration

Brookfield Renewable:
EV charging infrastructure partnership

And this is where scalability matters.

Shoals is not building tiny niche projects.

The new Tennessee Mega Facility was specifically designed for:
Solar
BESS
AI power systems
Data center infrastructure

The company consolidated operations into:
~638,000 sq ft

with:
Automation improvements
Higher throughput
Lower labor intensity
Higher long-term margins

This is infrastructure scaling.

Not hype scaling.

And the moat matters.

Shoals has:
~67 patents
Proprietary connectors
Factory-tested assemblies
Massive installer relationships
Deep EPC integration
Sticky engineering workflows

Once designed into major projects:
switching costs become painful.

Near-term setup:

Small-cap → multi-billion dollar pathway if adoption accelerates.

$SHLS is no longer just a solar supplier.

It��s becoming a power infrastructure platform for the electrification + AI era.

few thoughts re: markets...

- software. as mentioned in a few replies in the last week, I began to nibble so names, but being very selective, albeit most of them move as a group. negativity and bearishness on the sector will not vaporize overnight, and all of us collectively buying the group will not mark the lows. I would anticipate bounces here and there that are excellent scalp opportunities while being open-minded and picking some well-respected names for the next year (dollar-cost-averaging)

when you see people post historical valuation lows for favorite companies... those are still too high. me thinks multiples will continue to de-compress, and if we do not receive analysts doing downside revisions that market is already <pricing-in> the outlook will shift into the latter part or next year. these AI giants you see names of everyday continue to spend a lot on core software and hire engineers, and 3P SW is here to stay for a while longer

believe 27' is where select SW names are going to come back pretty violently. additionally - given that most of these well known names are flying back to Earth... I'd encourage to navigate not through only the likes of $TEAM, $WDAY, and $NOW, but also smaller players... $WIX, $BRZE, $GLTB, and a few others... M&A plays. they are far cheaper (and some of them generate decent cash-flow) than before, and some... were buyout targets whilst prices were twice higher. just something to ponder about

- metals. quite a few readings and insights about monthly RSI being over 90s (gold). while I do love divergences and fluctuations with this indicator, it's only good to grasp momentum, not local tops or lows. if you check back gold in 1970s, you selling when it hit >90RSI would've meant you missed a decade-end 5X additional ride higher. while I am inclined to believe this is starting to feel <too-late-to-enter-now> sort of a thing for quite a few of these metals, and we may see <more-often> and bigger pullbacks this year, some of them north of 20-30%, do think a similar scenario happens where all of them trade way higher by decade-end. as most masterminds on X, I will be pretending to be a copper, lithium, coal expert and diverge from the likes of gold/silver soon

- dollar. disgusting - pretty much the only thing keeping us in check for now is that decade line of defense chart everyone is sharing. I do something different... log it against other currencies on HTF charts. in the months and years to come, I am trying to re-allocate my EUR/USD to something that is breaking out when compared to them... in this instance, Swiss Franc. not only hard assets, not only RE, not only stocks, I'm trying to avoid getting torched any longer on EUR and USD

- push and pull OR vibe-trading. being very selective with the names I own. all of them must fit the narrative or seem like <they are going to be discovered> soon. do believe putting stops is wrong in this market. this month alone I chose not to put stop losses (I am inherently a swinger/not an investor) and feel the pain for a while just before markets reverse and erase losses + I am hedging way, way more often, for example used to be SW shorts, now pivoting to XLE and proxy names longs (usually 7-14 day momentum plays)

- a lot of sectors and big names right now... grind (especially MAGS). still see we can drift slowly higher from here before eventually meeting that <everyone waits for> dip in 1H, but I wouldn't be shocked if we end the year still considerably higher than where we are now. at this point administration doesn't even hide they are trying to pull economy=stock market waltz, and without our beloved stocks, it's a collapse. I doubt they want one - but I am no longer using margin just in case. this is no SPY at 400-500

- cryptocurrencies. avoiding - I think a small re-spike to near 100s was easily predicted but too much money has been wiped out clean a few months ago with that vile rug and before that - alternative coin washout and liquidity transfers before getting rugged as well with disgusting presidential coins. there is no appetite or reason to sit in a declining sector while everything else is ripping (until now). at least wait for a real-secure confirmation

- dino names and multi-year bases. I'm mostly interested in decade long breakouts or preparations to do so. if you see charts similar to $CLS before it broke out... auto-long it with lunch money. it's M&A and deca-breakout season in the works

- you're all going to make it... this market isn't difficult. it's just a weird one. the less time you spend on screen and socials reading/monitoring every situation the better it is. pick up several short term composite indicators (momentum overstimulation and short-term washouts/lows), follow industry experts sharing their daily thoughts for free on the matter... and you're good to go

long and probably useless read but had some free time, TL;DR furu: nibbling SW names but on a push-pull aspect, only several DCA for 27. main metals will drift higher but I do feel excellent pullbacks are coming, whilst end decade goes way higher. dino names and multi-year breakout pending assets interest me most, less stop losses, more hedging and vibe-trading, be prepared to be wrong often as long as you re-adjust quick

Awesome find, very tempted to start a position🧐

[YeahDave @Yeah_Dave]

V2x Inc $VVX $2B
Drones, Greenland, and Golden Dome for 50 cents on the dollar

V2X, Inc. $VVX is a defense contractor formed by the 2022 merger of Vectrus and Vertex.

The company has TTM revenue of $4.42B and rising, yet trades at a market cap less than half of that. At 11x P/E and 0.45x P/S, the market is valuing them at 45 cents for every $1 of revenue.

Why is it it so cheap?

The company had been focused on logistics, aerospace maintenance, training, and base operations for the U.S. military and national security clients.

Currently it is being passed on by the market as a low margin services company, not a tech hardware company. Net profit margins are historically very tight (~1.8% to 2.5%). They rely on volume, not high markup. The cherry on top is that the company carries over $1.1B debt load and a PE firm has been selling shares. The market has been taking a pass.

However there is a change occurring under the surface that the market may be missing.

The Greenland Play. Vectrus is the blue-collar half of V2X. They operate in eye popping 329 locations/bases across 47 countries. They fully run six major bases from top to bottom. The crown jewel in this conversation is their Pituffik Base in Greenland. This is the US's only military base in Greenland.

As Russia and China aggressively expand their icebreaker fleets, the Arctic is becoming the next major theater of conflict. In addition the region is the critical tracking node for ballistic missile interception. Pituffik is the U.S. military’s foothold in Greenland.

V2X doesn't just clean the floors here; they manage everything from the power generation, airfield operations, civil engineering, and survival logistics in -30°F. The company is entrenched.

If investment into the Arctic increases, $VVX is essential to that strategy.

The Drone Hunter (Project Tempest). The Vertex side is where the high-margin re-rating happens.

While the market wasn't looking, V2X deployed their Tempest counter-UAS system into active combat in Ukraine at an unheard of pace.

This isn't a multi billion-dollar stationary missile system. It’s a mobile, "shoot-and-scoot" drone denial and scouting/sensing platform that fires mass produced laser-guided rockets to kill drones.

They are killing cheap enemy drones with cheap rockets without being an expensive stationary target, thus helping to solve one of the biggest economic problems in modern warfare. They went from prototype to stacking battlefield killchains in months, an unheard of speed, and this was just their first contribution.

The Golden Dome. As of Jan 12, they now hold a seat on the $151 Billion SHIELD contract to build the U.S. homeland missile defense shield. They are now at the table for high-end prototyping and sensor integration alongside the giants.

What the market is still missing is that they didn't just get a "participation trophy." The award specifically cites V2X for "advanced analytics, rapid prototyping, and sensor integration." They are at the table to design the brain of the system. Remember, they are deeply integrated into hundreds of bases across the world.

V2X isn't just a generic bidder either. They already run what will be the eyes of the Dome. Very few seem to have connected these dots. Let me give you an example of one set of these systems.

The COBRA DANE & COBRA KING phased arrays. These are not "just radars." These are National Technical Means (NTM), the highest category of strategic assets the U.S. possesses. V2X currently operates and sustains these massive phased-arrays in places like Shemya, Alaska just 450 miles from Russia. These arrays are powerful enough to spot a baseball in space from 2,000 miles away.

The COBRA DANE system that V2X runs in Alaska stares unblinkingly at the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Pacific Ocean. Its job is to detect Russian or Chinese ICBM launches instantly. It creates the "data lake" that the entire U.S. Missile Defense System relies on.

V2X holds the contract to sustain and operate this facility. Without V2X, the U.S. goes blind in the North Pacific.

The COBRA KING system is the "Mobile Eye" at Sea. It is a ship-borne dual-band radar system mounted on the USNS Howard O. Lorenzen.

Unlike DANE which is fixed, KING moves. It parks off the coast of rogue nations to monitor missile tests up close. It uses X-band and S-band radars to "fingerprint" enemy warheads, determining if a missile is carrying a nuke or a decoy.

V2X maintains the complex mission systems that allow this ship to feed data into the national command network.

You can't build a "Golden Dome" without the data from these radars. Because V2X already manages the sensors that detect the missiles, they have a massive advantage in winning the contracts to integrate that data into the new shield.

One final point on this topic is that previously the old V2X would wait 5 years for a maintenance contract.

The market has not priced in that the new SHIELD approved V2X can now bid on 6-month "sprint" contracts to prototype new sensor fusion algorithms or cyber-hardened command posts. This moves them from "slow government services" to "fast defense tech."

The base modernization $40B+ opportunity.
The U.S. military has a massive problem. Its bases are falling apart and its networks are from the 90s.

V2X holds a spot on the $12B Base Infrastructure Modernization (BIM) IDIQ.

If the DOW budget spikes to $1.5T, money will likely flow into "Smart Base" initiatives. This includes upgrading 5G networks, cyber-hardening power grids, and digitizing logistics. V2X is a prime contractor for this. They don't just pour concrete; they install the digital backbone (fiber, sensors, security) that a modern base needs.

Soldier Training in the modern AI and computational age. Yes, V2X is a giant here as well.

In 2025, V2X won a spot on the U.S. Army's "LTRaC" (Live Training, Ranges, and Combat Training Centers) contract.

V2X runs the "war games." When soldiers go to a major training center (like Fort Irwin or JRTC) to simulate fighting Russia or China, V2X provides the simulation tech, the "op-for" (opposing force) logistics, and the augmented reality systems.

A massive DOW budget increase typically prioritizes Readiness. If the Army scales up exercises to deter threats, V2X gets paid more for every rotation.

There is more, but I will stop here for now. (I haven't even mentioned the LOGCAP V massive Army logistics contract of which V2X is a prime holder).

With V2X your getting a lot for shockingly very little.

The company is finally realizing the benefits of the Vectrus/Vertex merger and the market is not paying attention. An incredible amount of capital is likely to pour into Greenland and the market is not paying attention. $1.5T is about to pour into the modernization of bases, sensors, and soldier training and the market is not paying attention. They are critical part of the Golden Dome infrastructure and the market has not realized.

The debt bear case is dying. Net leverage has already dropped to ~2.6x (down from dangerous highs), and management is using record cash flow to clean up the balance sheet. The pre-planned PE return on investment selling is almost over.

You are buying a company with an "Arctic Moat" (Greenland), a Golden Dome/SHIELD essential backbone, and a "Combat Tech" growth engine for 0.45x sales.

It might take some time for the market to realize this. This is not a get rich quick play. But if the market wakes up even just a little and re-rates this to even a modest 0.8x sales (still a huge discount to peers), the stock doubles. I think this is an interesting multi-year play to build into. I took a position at $63.
