Hey Stoney, for real on GME, don't dismiss this thing as a garbage stock. NFT's are a big deal, and not just for stupid things. There's no doubt GME is fundamentally overpriced, but the folks that own the stock are as devout as the TSLA hodl'rs. Some are pretty well versed on the future of NFT's. Even @unconventional wisdom here said NFT's will disrupt many of the existing ways enterprise and govt do business. Your car title, nft. House deed, nft. There are dozens of things. Not sure what GME has up their sleeve, but I doubt this will follow in the footsteps of Radio Shack.
Hey Stoney!!!!! This is why it pays to listen to me when I share. I wrote this on Wednesday: >>>On Friday Putin makes a speech: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Putin warns of ‘catastrophic’ energy crisis if west boosts sanctions Russian president Vladimir Putin has threatened “catastrophic consequences” for world energy markets if western powers impose further sanctions on Moscow, as G7 members discuss plans to try to cap Russia’s oil revenues following its invasion of Ukraine. ____________________________________________________________ What was it I said again? "Throw a dart at any high beta energy stock Stoney (without some kind of negative underlying story, and a lot of short term debt), and buy it. Forget these stupid stocks like friggin Flywire. They'll rise and fall lockstep with the tech sector... but going into Q3-Q4 2022.... energy is the place to be. If you want outsized gains that is." Watch what happens to the energy stocks this week. Next time Stoney, and you should already know this by now (of course you do, but you just hate admitting it) >>>pay attention when I put that little "~VZ" at the end of a post. ~100 for 100 at ET.

Good Morning I am making a large purchase this week- I have held off buying something new at the HF since MRTX... that one came with lots of drama I won't get into.. but they didn't want me in, I yelled and forced the issue, I scored huge, I gloated they got mad... Got to get a handle on that gloating... To represent the new idea in the Radio Savant portfolio I will remove ABB today. The stock to buy for your IRA's and other is Aerojet Rocketdyne. This is a name I am extremely close to having covered it for ten or so years. There was a big huge board fight with an agitator and our female CEO beat him to the ground and won.!<---- AJRD also coughed up a $9 mil fine to DOJ... I would say the decks are cleared. I don't expect anyone reading this to remember but there was a take out deal for this company about a year ago that was broken up for anti trust concerns... The belief here is that Private equity will buy this company and until then they are in a good place. Global investments in defense tied to the war in Ukraine are soaring, Russia is threatening the use of hypersonic weapons--thus the immediate need for the US to develop advanced hypersonics. -$190 million in free cash flow next year based on close to $50 million in capital expenditures - AJRD has a three-year deal with Lockheed to produce propulsion for PAC3 missiles, which are part of the Patriot system.<-------- ALL OF NATO NEEDS PATRIOT SYSTEMS I THINK!> During 2021, we continued to expand our strong legacy propulsion franchises on the Standard Missile, Patriot Advanced Capability-3 ("PAC-3"), Terminal High Altitude Area Defense ("THAAD") and Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System ("GMLRS") missile programs, to include executing a three-year production contract with Lockheed Martin for PAC3 propulsion elements to include the Missile Segment Enhancement rocket motor, the Attitude Control Motors, and Lethality Enhancer. These franchise programs continue to be globally deployed in support of U.S. and allied armed forces. With a market cap of $3.3 billion and more than 5,000 customers, the company is the 19th-largest stock-listed US defense company. BUY OF THE DAY/WEEK- AJRD-$40.85
VAN FORD reports soon and The expectations are for Ford to report normalized EPS of $0.43 for the second-quarter, but earnings estimates have been down-graded 10 times in the last ninety days. WHY-? NOT RECESSION-- THERE IS NO RECESSION! Equity valuation loss related to investment in EV maker Rivian Ford is set to disclose another significant loss on its investment in electric vehicle manufacturer Rivian later this month. Ford’s equity investment in Rivian was valued at $5.1B at the end of the first-quarter and it was because of Rivian’s stock under-performance in Q1’22 that Ford had to record a$5.4B mark-to-market losslast quarter. Rivian’s stock valuation has dropped approximately 49% in the second-quarter which means that fair value accounting rules require Ford to report another billion-dollar equity valuation loss for Q2’22. Ford did address itsRivian problemby selling shares in the second-quarter, reducing its exposure to the EV company by approximately 15M shares. The car brand still retained a considerable position in Rivian totaling 86,947,494 shares and the remaining share block was worth approximately $2.2B at the end of the second-quarter. Because of the continual decline in Rivian’s share price and considering stock sales that have occurred in May, Ford is set to reveal an impairment loss exceeding $2.0B for Q2'22. My instinct is to buy off any earnings day weakness, but we shall see.

I am putting together a market prediction missive but I really have zero idea.-- My initial thoughts long ago I stick with -- I felt S&P 3,800 was a fair level for a shallow recession. And all of my work does show we will get that shallow (hopefully) recession but quite a bit later on than the pros think. So that leaves me in a bit of afix. We are at fair value for something that is not here yet... If Inflation is the boogie man and it is what does that mean for corporate earn? Well folks have not thought this trough yet- In my view Earnings will be artificially supported by this same horrible inflation. Yes the cost is passed on to the consumer. So In my view 4,200- 4,400 S&P can be achieved. I did get another update from the TA guy at Big Pete's firm that I have not looked at. They get me depressed... I may come back with an entirely different view! But that's where my head is at-- we are at fair value now and could go higher from here. Inflation levels released this Wed / Thurs will grab all the headlines and they should but the actual earnings destruction that has been priced in may be over done. ~stoney
