Fortrea is showing the kind of operating leverage investors want to see in a contract research organization: positive free cash flow ($196M last reported), improving book-to-bill (1.15x), and margin tailwinds driven by technology products like Fortrea Intelligent Technology. The stock is trading near $18.90 with technicals supportive and a favorabl…
Perpetua Resources is a development-stage play on the Stibnite Gold Project in Idaho that benefits from a $2.9 billion U.S. government loan commitment, attractive implied upside to historical highs, and improving technicals. The company remains pre-production with negative earnings and cash burn, so this is a conviction long trade sized for risk-to…
A NATO official said Russia is increasing hybrid activities in Europe while the alliance currently assesses there is no imminent threat of attack. Political leaders and intelligence contacts are discussing preparedness and possible provocations, and attribution for a recent attempted drone strike in Germany remains under investigation.
TransDigm’s pullback to $1,185 offers a chance to own a high-margin aerospace aftermarket platform that has consistent FCF and a clear acquisition runway.

Meta's stock is trading like its AI investments are a long-term drag. The numbers tell a different story: strong free cash flow, attractive ROE, and manageable leverage suggest the market is underpricing near-term monetization and optionality from AI and infrastructure deals. This trade targets a mid-term re-rate toward $700 with a $540 stop.
Phibro (PAHC) looks set to turn a recent acquisition into durable margin and cash-flow upside. The Zoetis medicated feed-additive portfolio and management continuity following a CEO transition create a clear operational catalyst. At a $1.53B market cap and EV/EBITDA of 8.95, the stock is reasonably valued for a company with improving revenue growth…
JOYY trades at a cheap valuation (P/B ~0.57, P/E ~17.8) despite improving technicals, an expanding BIGO footprint and a 6.4% yield. We outline a long trade with a $74.60 entry, $66 stop and $95 target over a long-term (180 trading days) horizon, plus mid-term profit-taking levels. Key risks include ad-market cyclicality, regulatory exposure in Asia…
Volkswagen's heavy exposure to China has historically insulated the group through cycles. That protective effect looks compromised: slowing end demand, intensifying local EV competition, and margin compression create a clear, actionable short trade for traders comfortable with higher risk. Plan: enter at $16.25, target $12.50, stop $19.00 - horizon…
Astera Labs ($290.30) has moved from high-growth breakout to a cash-generative, profitable infrastructure vendor with a new leg of growth coming from broader rack-scale AI deployments. Market cap is ~$50.2B, P/E ~136, and the share pullback looks like a low-volatility entry to ride continued data center spending. Trade plan: enter at $290.30, stop …

Dorchester Minerals (DMLP) reported a strong Q2 with operating revenues roughly doubling year-over-year and declared a robust distribution.

This is a mid-term (45…
Bitcoin traded close to $78,000 and was largely unchanged over the prior 24 hours as market attention shifted to how expanded international exchange-traded fund access and more practical messaging to everyday investors could shape the next leg of adoption.

Nvidia’s dominance in AI compute is priced for growth, but recent market weakness creates a repeatable entry opportunity. The company’s data-center engine generated $89.0B last quarter (92.5% of revenue) and sits on $127B of free cash flow. We recommend a mid-term buy on weakness with an entry at $215.00, stop at $200.00, and target of $260.00 over…
