@chrisstlmo@daschreiber Focus on the underlying business KPI's, the business is performing very well, share price aside. There will always be pullbacks and volatility during the scale up phase, but the long term trend is clear.
Interesting quote from @daschreiber 's interview at Piper Sandler's conference today. $LMND
"Consumers move more and more to LLMs in order to recommend their insurance or even send their agents to buy the policy for them, we're just fine with that. If you now ask your LLM of choice about pet insurance or renters insurance or car insurance, Lemonade will be over-indexed quite significantly. The reason for that is that consumer set, going back to things we said earlier, we tend to be a cost leader because we use technology to get to the best cost."
Being a cost leader is going to become even more important as more customers rely on agents and LLMs to make their insurance purchase decisions, and LMND appears to have a clear advantage in terms of cost and a seamless online interface.
I expect we will hear a lot more about this at investor day.
AUKUS Pillar 2 is an important step toward accelerating the capabilities our nations need.
Dive-XL was built from day one so that the U.S., Australia, and the U.K. militaries can rapidly integrate and deploy advanced autonomous undersea capabilities and developing payloads. Right now, we are doing just that in all three AUKUS countries.
@michaelsikand Eexpecting the market to catch on and rerate the stock after the closing of the acquisition. Subsea robotics are a major growth area and kraken is the clear leader.
$FSLR just hit a 52 week high. I don't see anyone else talking about it on here, but it is a clear beneficiary of the soaring demand for power generation in the coming years.
5 stocks I've personally been accumulating over the last few weeks, all in sectors that should benefit from data centre buildout, energy infrastructure, and defence spending regardless of the macro noise.
$HPS.A (TSX) – North America's largest dry-type transformer manufacturer. Record $898M revenue in 2025, backlog up 122% YoY. Direct beneficiary of grid upgrades, data centre power demand, and transformer shortages. Under the radar for a long time, valuation still reasonable.
$ANET – Near-monopoly in Ethernet switching for AI data centres. Customers include Microsoft, Anthropic, Meta, Oracle. Guiding 25% revenue growth in 2026 with $5.4B in deferred revenue. Pulled back from peak, comparable story to $VRT but lower multiples.
$FSLR – Contrarian pick. largest U.S. solar manufacturer, structurally advantaged by tariffs vs. Asian competitors. Trading at ~10x CF and 14x PE after a policy-driven selloff. Solar is unavoidable for meeting power demand long-term. Near term political risk is real but so is the re-rating potential long term.
$MDA (TSX/NYSE) – Canadian space tech: satellites, Canadarm, geointelligence. $4B backlog, CAD $40B sales pipeline, 44% revenue growth in Q4 2025. Trades at a steep discount to peers like $RKLB $ASTS and $LUNR. Increasing NATO defence spend is a meaningful tailwind, as well as the $AMZN deal to acquire $GSAT.
$BE – Solid-oxide fuel cells for on-site data centre power. $2B revenue in 2025, guiding $3.1–3.3B in 2026. Recently announced deal with $ORCL. Rich valuation reflects the growth, but one to watch on dips.
*Not financial advice
Added to my Kraken Robotics position for the first time in a couple years on this dip. The robotics sector is heating up, and Kraken is arguably the best pure play on sub sea drones and autonomous underwater vehicles. Clear tailwinds from increasing NATO defence spend, Anduril ghost shark production ramp up, and global conflicts in the Straight of Hormuz.
Valuation isn't unreasonable given the growth prospects, and the team has a track record of executing.
