Workday reported solid Q4 results but offered cautious guidance and is being repriced by the market for AI and SaaS risk.

Nano Labs (NA) is a sub-$100M microcap that has shifted toward a crypto-reserve strategy while retaining semiconductor IP.

I agree with a quant-style 'Hold' while uncertainty around the Strait of Hormuz persists. For traders who want a stab at upside, a small, mid-term swing long on a discipl…
