COMMENT

We are looking at a lot of volatility in the summer and the market is range bound because of this volatility. It should break out to the upside rather than downside at some point but we just have to get through the summer first. The next phase of AI, now that the infrastructure is in place, is all about the end users bringing AI to the edge. A good example is EV's computing to devices outside of the cloud. This can facilitate bringing in new products. There is a desire to have the decisions made on the factory floors, not the cloud, and the enablers do this. AI was a technology story but now it's more of an earnings story. It's for the consumers but is also spreading to the enterprise side.

BUY

They owned it when it was called Yandex, something like the Google of Russia. The company moved to Israel and the Netherlands. Nebius specializes in building out a full AI stack. It has legs with a $19 billion deal with Microsoft which gives them cash flow. The recent META announcement has created competition which caused the drop. It's starting to come back now.

Unspecified

They own it in a separately manged account, not their main portfolios. It is somewhat expensive along with some volatility so he is selling some calls. There is competition with website security and other software companies have built pipes eg. Datadog. Their price target is $275 which is its recent peak.

PARTIAL BUY

It was expected to be a major competitor to Nvidia. It is still a designer and doing well in the field. He has a price target of $509 which has decent upside. You could take an initial position at $375 and buy more as it drops.

COMMENT

Announcements have given it a boost. It has blown through its price targets. For example one analyst's price target was $525 and it trades at $565. You could sell some calls.

BUY

It dropped a lot in May and has been going through the usual IPO euphoria. He has a 12 month target of $45, well above its recent lows. It is a great Canadian story in quantum computing on the photon technology side, light emitting to build qubits, and needing only room temperature and not freezing temperatures. He considers it a pretty cool company and its software stack is well used. He would buy up to the 2 to 3% level but not over 4%.

PARTIAL BUY

It is similar to Arista with Internet and Ethernet connectivity. It is part of the expanding role of optical fiber due to the limitations of copper. It is difficult to break into optical. Bell buys their optical stuff from Corning. He has a 12 month price target of $265 and you could buy in thirds, adding it as it goes down.

COMMENT

It is a great technology story and one of the biggest tower communications companies in the world. It is more of a value stock with a 4.4% dividend which gives it stability along with some growth.

Unspecified

The stock has come down because of the competitive nature robotics. This is becoming front page because in Q4 or Q1 2027 Tesla will roll out their line of Optimus robots. Kraken Robotics has created a section related to the market in defense. He has a 12 month target of $9.25.

BUY

This is a great time to buy. Q1 revenue growth is up over 50% and guidance was increased. You could buy now and add if it goes lower to $430. They provide design, manufacturing and supply chain solutions including aero-defense and communication. It has recently collaborated with AMD.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 16/25, Up 49%)

He still owns it but is selling some calls to raise some income. He raised the hedge for protection of the portfolio after such a big run. It was only about $175 a year ago. Had $111 billion in revenue with 49% gross margin in the last quarter. He feels it is pretty fully priced.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 16/25, Up 73%)

Like Apple it was sort of a sleeper last year. It sells processes and analogue chips, very different than GPU's. Is involved in networking products and services. The AI stack explosion needed their products and technology. It is fully priced according to analysts' price targets.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 16/25, Up 43%)

It too is fully priced according to analysts' price targets. Like Cisco it is in the right place selling analogue chip sand embedded processes.

WAIT

It has had a big run so don't chase it. When stock prices go parabolic price targets go out the window. He compares Micron to SK Hynix (Korean) which IPO's on Friday and could take some of the liquidity out of the memory space. Also Sandisk and Seagate which are also a bit stretched. One company has a price target of $1800 but he has sold 2/3 of his position because he has made so much money. It is one of the kings in computer memory and data storage solutions. You could buy it at $975 and lower.

COMMENT

It is well run and managed. Its IPO was a year ago April and it has consolidated here. There are other opportunities but you could buy at $77 and $73 since it should break higher. He has target of $134.
