Interesting, the kids on Reddit would love your thoughts. I follow BBAI every day and have been waiting for the AI bleed to stop. Thanks for the good chart!
That's a nice one. Even if they ain't really profitable :/ Earnings March 4 but I am unsure about the outcome. Might be a buy the gap down opportunity but who knows. Waiting for a little reversal (bullish close) on the daily might be wise, But average DD wise (top indicator's orange line) it might find a bottom. Yeah reddit kids are going to be "Congrats and fuck you" when I'll post the BBAI gains.
Not so much with the kids on this Reddit thread, there are kids who actually listen and compliment good research. Shills and promoters abound like any board but we both have seen to much to fall for their nonsense! https://www.reddit.com/r/BBAI/
I browse r/wallstreetbets and r/stocks but I am not a big fan of (deep) research I like momentum, basic fundamentals (sales & revenues) & knowing their products / contracts. When I deep dive into research it means I am holding bags and looking for confirmation bias. However good research definitely needs recognition, thanks to them for sharing ! Thanks for sharing the subreddit.
I know you love options like me, do you ever listen to Tom Sos before and during the first hour of trading? I started watching them as background noise as a change from CNBC and Bloomberg. Yesterday I planned on buying NVDA March Monthly $120 calls only to watch Tom buy while I was. I bought the $120 0DTE for .80s ave. https://www.tastylive.com/
Nice trade ! Never heard about tasty's tom. Thought tasty were more about selling option (theta gang). I like options and still trying to figure out how take full advantage of them. Wasn't super bullish yesterday, took a 0DTE SPY 585$ put when SPY was 588 and sold it for twice its price. Wasn't super bearish neither because SPY made 2pts down and 3pts up from open when I took the put option trade. Got lucky ! I'll give tasty a look.
March 21th 6.5$ Call @ 0.35 March 28th 7.5$ Call @ 0.30 (0.25 would be better. Bid is @ 0.25) April 4th 7.0$ Call @ 0.45 (0.30 would be better. Bid is @ 0.35) Might bid 5% on each (0.35, 0.25 & 0.3) Possible 10x per contract if it prints 10$ before expiration. Will it double in 3-5 weeks ? Very Risky Bet Thoughts ? Reddit feedbacks: "Too many words" "And chart lacked penis " "I only saw calls and u are fked" People downvoting. That's bullish ! IMO there is a small chance to print 10 by March 21th. Worth a little 5% bet that can return 10x. Earnings is a wild card though ...
BigBear.ai: Is It Opportunity Knocking or a Trap Door? Feb 25, 202513:07 GMT+1 BBAI+0.78% BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. BBAI provides artificial intelligence (AI) powered decision intelligence solutions, and the company has experienced a dramatic drop in its stock price recently. BigBear.ai’s stock price dropped over 8% intraday on February 24, 2025, extending five-day performance losses to almost 25%. After a significant rally earlier in the year, investors are now questioning whether the recent sharp decline presents a buying opportunity or signals a continued downward trend due to a fundamental shift in market sentiment. Beyond the Buzzwords: What Does BigBear.ai Actually Do? [content-module:CompanyOverview|NYSE:BBAI] BigBear.ai operates in the rapidly evolving field of AI-powered decision intelligence. This means the company develops and deploys artificial intelligence systems to analyze vast, complex datasets and provide actionable insights to its clients. These are not simple data dashboards; BigBear.ai's solutions are designed for high-stakes, dynamic environments where timely and accurate decision-making is paramount. The company's primary focus is on serving the national security sector, and it has extensive collaborations with the U.S. government's defense and intelligence agencies. BigBear.ai's product portfolio spans several key areas. ProModel AI offers simulation software for optimizing manufacturing and warehousing operations. The veriScan product line provides biometric verification solutions for secure access control and passenger processing, which is critical in applications like airports and border crossings. ConductorOS is an AI orchestration platform that can work with multiple AI systems designed to help other systems function better. BigBear.ai also has a cyber security arm and has developed a digital twin software suit called Space Crest that creates a virtual copy of an actual satellite system and provides real-time alerts, monitoring, and cyber intrusion detection. The Time-Series Forecasting (VANE) platform provides predictive analytics and has now expanded to include geopolitical risk analysis. From Surge to Slump BigBear.ai's recent stock price decline is a sharp reversal from its earlier 2025 gains, but it is not attributable to a single cause. Instead, multiple factors are exerting downward pressure on investor sentiment and the company's perceived near-term prospects. These pressures have combined to create a bearish case for the AI firm and have moved its stock price downward. The most significant factor is the Trump administration's announcement of substantial defense budget cuts. The directive to the Department of Defense (DOD) to identify $50 billion in spending reductions, representing roughly 6% of the existing DOD budget, directly impacts BigBear.ai's core business model. The company's revenue stream is heavily reliant on securing government contracts, particularly within the defense and intelligence sectors. The prospect of reduced DOD spending creates significant uncertainty about BigBear.ai's ability to win new contracts and maintain existing revenue streams at prior levels in the coming years. Compounding the defense budget concerns are broader macroeconomic headwinds. A series of bearish indicators have spooked investors across the market, particularly in growth-oriented sectors like technology. Many companies presenting weaker-than-expected sales growth guidance, a decline in consumer confidence, and disappointing data in the U.S. manufacturing and services sectors all point to a potential economic slowdown. When investors are less willing to tolerate losses or uncertainty, it creates a "risk-off" environment, which negatively impacts companies like BigBear.ai that are not yet consistently profitable. While BigBear.ai has demonstrated revenue growth and secured significant contract wins, its continued unprofitability remains a crucial factor contributing to the stock's decline. The company's net losses increased throughout 2024, reaching $149 million compared to $38 million in the same period the previous year. Although some of this loss can be attributed to non-cash items related to warrant valuations, the overall trend of operating at a loss raises concerns about the company's ability to achieve sustainable profitability, especially in a tightening budget environment. These factors have contributed to a decrease in the stock price, at least in the short term. [content-module:TradingView|NYSE:BBAI] Revenue Growth, Persistent Losses BigBear.ai's earnings report for the most recent quarter presents a mixed picture. The company's Q3 2024 earnings, released on November 5, 2024, showed revenue of $41.5 million, a significant 22.1% increase year-over-year. Gross margin also improved, rising to 25.9% from 24.7%. However, despite these positive indicators, BigBear.ai reported a net loss of $12.2 million for the quarter, a significant increase from a gain of $4 million from the same period the previous year. The adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) were positive at $0.9 million, suggesting some operational improvements. The company reaffirmed its full-year 2024 revenue guidance of $165 million to $180 million, initially set in the Q4 2023 earnings report and subsequently adjusted in Q2 2024. This projection suggests continued growth, but it's crucial to note that BigBear.ai has a history of net losses. As of September 30, 2024, BigBear.ai held a cash balance of $65.6 million, which had been bolstered earlier in the year by $54 million raised through warrant exercises. In December 2024, the company restructured its debt, exchanging existing convertible notes for new ones with a later maturity date, providing some financial breathing room. BigBear.ai: Opportunity or Overvalued? BigBear.ai currently finds itself at a critical juncture, presenting a complex equation for investors. The dramatic stock price decline, triggered by a multitude of legitimate concerns, creates a tempting narrative for bargain hunters. The company's core strengths remain, and recent partnerships are examples of opportunities for expansion in the commercial sector. The substantial backlog of $437 million, reported in Q3 2024, provides some visibility into future revenue potential. Furthermore, the broader trend of AI adoption, even with some regulatory uncertainty, still points to a growing market for BigBear.ai's solutions. However, the headwinds facing BigBear.ai are substantial and cannot be ignored. The concern of significant defense budget cuts casts a long shadow over a company so heavily reliant on government spending. Macroeconomic weakness adds another layer of pressure, and the company's consistent unprofitability, highlighted by widening net losses, raises legitimate questions about its short-term financial stability. While the recent debt restructuring provides breathing room, it also adds to the long-term obligations. For investors with a high tolerance for volatility and a long-term investment horizon, the dip in price is a tempting entry point. However, caution is strongly advised for the majority of investors, particularly those with lower risk tolerance or a shorter-term focus. Waiting for greater clarity on the defense budget situation, macroeconomic stabilization, and, crucially, demonstrable progress toward profitability in the upcoming earnings report on March 6, 2025, is likely the most prudent course of action. BigBear.ai presents a compelling yet undeniably risky investment narrative. The potential rewards are substantial, but the path to realizing them is filled with uncertainty.
