Fun Trade Idea: Long $RPI (Raspberry Pi) Reason: 🦞 Openclaw / Picoclaw / Nanobot + Hoarding. Everyone has been openly hoarding Apple Mac Minis and were long Apple. But $APPL is already a $3.7T+ company. Product mass-buying won't make a dent. Raspberry Pi, however, is a 542.68M company. The revenue is material. Feels like markets haven't priced this in since I've seen almost 0 mentions about the ticker on X (but many product mentions). And it's only recently that have the hoarding started Raspberry Pis, as they're much cheaper than $500+ Apple products. They also have their mini $NVDA CUDA-light utility ecosystem that people use. So it turns out these extremely cheap $20 or $200 devices are perfect for deploying mass deploying isolated instances. The reason is for OpenClaw orchestration (so they don’t mess up your device) -> interfacing with a central LLM via API. Before people were just buying 1 or 2 for hobby/education purposes, so revenue has slowing. But now Silicon Valley startups and individuals anecdotally appear to be buying tens or hundreds of these things to run concurrent OpenClaw agentic swarms or do stuff like agentic marketing on Reddit and other places. And no, there are many applications that can't be done by spinning up AWS VPS, so people do it locally (there's TOS around automation/AI bots, so companies setup their own servers). That being said main downside risk is that its - partially foundation owned, and they might not hike rates like $SNDK or $MU does, even if there's extreme demand - Subject to memory price hikes like LPDDR4 component so this is not a major position. However, going forward, revenue should increase due to people buying tens or hundreds of these things for running AI agents. Balance sheet also looks clean with low downside risk: - ~$280M - $300M revenue - ~$75M+ Gross Profit - ~25% Gross Margin - Net income: ~$10M - $15M - Net Cash: $28M Analysts currently project revenue growth closer to 14–17%. But if the demand influx continues, we might see revenue numbers might hit increase from 14% growth to a modest 48-55% if hoarding continues. Consumer segments are roughly 1/3rd of revenue but the newfound buying from Openclaw + variants is a new cataylst nevertheless for re-rating. Especially now that Picoclaw and compressed OpenClaw variants are now able to be run on $20 Raspberry Pis instead of just the Raspberry Pi 5’s. But seems like people just forgot Raspberry PI was a publicly stock as well. The stock price is down 56% 1Y to 542.68M euro MC to an all time low. So this might be that tailwind for a reversal. There's also a non-zero chance OpenClaw is a long term catalyst for Raspberry Pi based, agentic deployments. TLDR: People are openly buying Raspberry Pis and Apple Mac Minis for Openclaw/Picoclaw, so revenue should benefit from increased demand.

Also feels like there’s an infinite TWAP on $SIVE Price goes up, long time holders sell, price goes up even more. Feel like large institutional bids averaging their buys.

Happy Birthday to Donda 2 (2025) It’s been exactly 1 year since it’s dropped

Just 1 month ago, journalists and media tried downplaying my $SOI and $RPI thesis. As “meme stocks that were set to crash” citing my WSB tag without analyzing the underlying thesis. They’re both up 100% and held their gains. Same is happening to companies like $SIVE. I never argue from authority… but since they’re going that route: I’m curious why… in their narratives they just leave out the fact I published fundamental AI papers in places like Nature with thousands of citations? Other the fact other analysts on X positive about $SIVE today have Ph.Ds from places like UC Berkeley and publish in the photonics space? It’s always the English or non-technical graduates that go out in the media and have the strongest opinion about CPO hyperscaler qualification cycles and supply chain mapping. It just feels like institutions hate it when a retail investors on X know what they’re talking about. A thesis should live and die based on merit, not the authority of who is comes from.

Wow $SOI is now the 16th name... I've done a mininthesis post on that returned over 100% Year to Date. The most recent two were $ALRIB and $RPI. Why does everything around me keep doubling?

IT'S OFFICIAL: $JBL to use $SIVE Lasers for their optical transceivers. Today: "Jabil plans to develop a 1.6T linear receive optical (LRO) transceiver module using Sivers’ high-performance Distributed Feedback (DFB) lasers" Jabil Photonics: :Working with Sivers will allow us to deliver a 1.6T LRO solution that meets both data center performance and power targets at scale" Where have you seen the LIGHT SOURCE for hyperscaler supply chains... At a $500m MC? We had this hinted from physical sources at OFC, but many institutions needed actual confirmation like this.
