I genuinely cannot believe this

See ya in the Bahamas … $AAOI

@CitronResearch 😂😂😂😂😂

$AAOI , the short thesis this morning still holds, as for trading, this large piece of art hangs on wall in my office. Markets reward discipline, not emotion. Shorting demands patience, precision, humility, and most of all risk control Euphoria is temporary. Reality is not. No one said this was easy, despite what you read on X. Still short $AAOI.

@CitronResearch Put the fries in the bag bro

Citron Short $AAOI- The anti-$LITE Two weeks ago $AAOI was $85. Today it's $140. $3.5B in market cap added on a random press release. This stock should trade back to $85 once the roulette wheel stops spinning (which would still put it above consensus) Let's be clear about something. Citron is not an AI bear. Long $GLW, the fiber backbone every hyperscaler buys more of regardless of which architecture wins. Respect $LITE, Nvidia's chosen partner with real profits and real backlog. GLW is reasonable. LITE is expensive. AAOI is delusional. And the customer tells you everything. LITE's anchor is Nvidia , $2 billion invested directly into their supplier, booked solid through 2028, balance sheet that could fund a small country. AAOI's anchor is Oracle , 30,000 layoffs, $100 billion in debt, negative free cash flow, and a flagship data center expansion that just fell apart over financing. One company picks winners. The other is desperately trying not to be a loser. ONE NUMBER ENDS DEBATE!! Nvidia at its peak as THE monopoly in AI chips with $200 billion in annual profits peaked at 40x forward earnings at the height of AI bubble euphoria. And Nvidia earned that multiple with 75% gross margins, monopoly pricing, and no real competition. AAOI trades at 112x forward earnings, nearly three times peak bubble Nvidia, with 31% gross margins, heavy capex, one customer, and zero pricing power. To justify 112x you need Nvidia-like margins. AAOI has commodity hardware margins that are one Innolight price cut away from making their already imaginary path to profitability a permanent moving target. You are paying beyond monopoly multiples for commodity economics , backed by the most leveraged, most financially stressed customer in the hyperscaler food chain. Could write pages about the Amazon warrants and the execution risks and accounting but why confuse an obvious story. Expensive has a defense. Delusional does not.

NVIDIA-backed photonics company $LITE CEO Mike Hurlston said the company could be SOLD-OUT through all of 2028 within two quarters, as AI demand from U.S. hyperscalers continues to accelerate.

$CRWV management hates it’s own stock

The demand for compute is still off the charts no matter what anyone says. There are new datacenter + cloud deals being announced nearly everyday. AI spend isn’t slowing down, it’s accelerating. $CRWV $NBIS the two bellwethers with hot charts on the verge of big breakouts.

Everyone worried Anthropic is going to take over the world… Which entity HATES them? … the US Gov. Hmm which software company is getting wrapped in the “Anthropic is taking over the world” sell off AND is already deeply embedded in the US Gov interface? … $PLTR

Is CPI going to ruin everyone’s week tomorrow or is hot print priced in? $SPY

$SNDK > $MU $NBIS > $IREN & it is that simple

$CRWV management outdid themselves today 💀🤡

HOLY SMOKES. Italian physicist Paolo Di Lazzaro spent five years trying to reproduce the body image seen on the Shroud of Turin—and couldn’t. Using intense UV light, his team was able to create small areas of discoloration on linen, but recreating the full image proved impossible with modern technology. According to biblical scholar Jeremiah Johnston, Di Lazzaro estimated the process would require an extraordinary burst of energy: "Paolo told me it would take 34,000 billion watts of energy traveling in one 40th of a billionth of a second to change the chemical makeup of a fine linen shroud to leave that image... 'We don't have that power on Earth.'" "There was a chemical change to the shroud that if it had lasted longer than one 40th of a billionth of a second, it would've scorched." This is incredible.
