So many people hated on us for the AWS acceleration thesis a couple months ago
And we were right of course
Only we can do these calls due to our deep knowledge and inights with core research, datacenter, accelerator, and Tokenomics models.

What is one stock that you think does not get enough media coverage but is a legitimate company that can outperform the S&P over the next 5 years?
On a flight right now & I told myself I would finally watch the Sopranos but I would much rather do DD instead 😂
I speed-watched (it’s like speed reading) severance over the weekend. Good show.
Currently reading about $ASML — would love to get other names below and any thesis associated with the names!

I HAVE A QUESTION.
What’s the most obvious double to you right now in the stock market over the course of 2-3 years?
Part of the reason I began deeply studying $GRAB is because I believe it can double in 2 years. My PT is $10 by 2027.
Unfortunately, the hype over the weekend made people think it would double in a week, but that’s obviously not how things work.
Towards the end of 2024, I began really trying to figure out what the next play for me would be. $PLTR had done very well, $HOOD did very well, but those plays are not asymmetric anymore.
The $GRAB options I have ($7.5/$10 call debit spreads) will 7x by 2027 if the underlying 2x’s. It’s not easy, but at this stage of life and given my current portfolio, it was the most asymmetric bet I could reasonably take on a company I had deeply studied — I would be pretty happy with a 7x in 2 years. Even if the option 3-4x’s in 2 years if $GRAB hits $8 instead of $10, I would be very happy.
The reason I made this play is because I think in this market post the 2yr bull run, finding a double is not easy.
In 2023:
$RKLB, $HOOD, $SOFI, $PLTR and many more doubled/tripled/quadrupled and even 10x’ed from their lows.
We’re not in that market anymore. We probably can’t get use to a stock going up 400% in a year.
The Mag 7 are great and I own many of them, but they are more cornerstones of a portfolio to lean on vs advancing the portfolio. I don’t think $GOOGL or $AMZN will take my portfolio to the next level, but I do expect a hopeful 15-20% gain from them this year.
The Mag 7 are safe, but they won’t easily double either, which is why I began looking to emerging markets and companies that had been essentially left for dead post IPO and that is where I found $GRAB. Again, the fintwit folks who wanted it to 10x in a month likely won’t get that but if they missed out on the 2023 lows of companies that have done incredible well then trying to find one that can 10x in this market won’t be easy.
So the question remains…what stock do you think from these prices can double over the course of 2-3 years?

@mattyp Love the product, it honestly feels like wizardry using it
1. Is there a way to setup API keys before the AI starts building, it often forgets that this is needed and gets stuck
2. Can we have checkpoints so we can verify progress before building the whole thing?

💵 $1,000,000 and a Free Car: Join round two of the @Google Gemini Hackathon!
Remember the Gen AI hackathon I judged? Well, we're doing it again, but this time we're giving away $1,000,000 and a custom made car to people who build the most creative ideas using Google Gemini.
Why should you join?
👩💻 All Virtual: Grab a friend, a laptop and go to your favorite coffee shop. This might be the beginning of your next startup.
📚 Learn and Grow: Join our online community and get support from me, other Googlers or participants.
🏆 Win Big: Take home life-changing money and the coolest car on the block.
📅 Deadline: It’s on your time and due by August 12th. I’m one of the judges!
🆓 No Cost: Gemini API has a free tier so you don’t have to pay a dime.
Not a Developer?
No Problem! The exciting thing about AI is you can just ask Gemini how to build something. It's like having the best teacher in the world right next to you.
What are you waiting for?
Grab a friend, brainstorm some creative ideas, and start building. You might be driving the coolest car on the block in the next few months.
Need Ideas?
Here’s a framework that I use. All good products do one of these:
⏱️ Save time and make things easier
💸 Save money or make money
💃 Entertain people
💛 Help people build relationships
🛟 Help businesses save or make money
Now think of existing behaviors in your life. The best products gracefully intertwine with things people already do:
✈️ Things people do every day, month or year like commuting, exersizing, traveling, holidays and celebrations.
🎓 Life milestones like school graduations, moving to a new city, starting a new job or getting married.
🧳 Things people do at work like schedule meetings in the office, take patient notes or find ways to get things done quicker.
Now smash these two lists together and think of cool ideas. Here’s a few of mine.
🕵️ Find My App: Use your phone’s camera and Gemini to find your lost car keys or favorite shoes around the house.
🤖 Bad Idea App: Brainstorm seemingly ridiculous product ideas to get your creative juices flowing.
🤝 Meeting Assistant: Super charge your meetings by having Gemini send reminder emails or connect with systems in your job to automate tasks.
Share this post with your friends and let's see what amazing apps we can build together!

Why India needs its own global ratings system:
1.Democracy Index: India ranks at 104. Below Niger (ruled by a military junta, President under house arrest since July 2023). Also below Kuwait (Parliament dissolved last month, because some lawmaker insulted the Emir)
2.Happiness Index: India ranks at 126. Pakistan is at 108 (broke, overrun by terrorists). India is also below Myanmar (coup, civil war), and war-hit Ukraine & Palestine!
3.Press Freedom Index: India ranks at 161. Taliban’s Afghanistan is at 152. Pakistan too ranks above India, as do the UAE, Brunei, Somalia and Uganda.

Someone asked me about what's wrong with kids of legal immigrants who are aging out. This gut wrenching testimony of Athulya made everyone cry.
Please share this with anyone who asks you what's wrong with "just waiting"
Thanks @ImproveTheDream for highlighting these 🙏
