Applied Optoelectronics $AAOI is one of the more interesting picks-and-shovels names in the AI infrastructure trade.

Every new AI data center needs more GPUs, more power, more cooling, and much faster connections between servers. The larger the clusters get, the more important optical networking becomes. As AI models get bigger and training clusters scale, the amount of data moving through the network explodes. That makes optical networking less of a boring hardware category and more of a core AI infrastructure layer.

Applied Optoelectronics makes optical transceivers, laser components, and networking products used in AI data centers, cable networks, telecom, and fiber access. AI workloads are forcing hyperscalers to upgrade their networks faster, and AAOI is becoming one of the suppliers tied directly to that upgrade cycle. The key product cycle is 800G, with 1.6T coming after that. These are high-speed optical transceivers that help move massive amounts of data inside and between data centers.

The numbers are starting to show that shift. In Q1 2026, AAOI reported record revenue of about $151 million, up from about $100 million in the prior year period. Data center revenue was about $81 million, making it the largest segment in the quarter.

The most important part of the earnings story was the ramp. Management said it completed the first volume shipment of 800G products to a large hyperscale customer in Q1 and expects a stronger volume ramp starting in Q2. They also guided for Q2 revenue of $180 million to $198 million, which implies another step up from Q1. Even more important, management expects sequential growth through the year, with bigger growth starting in Q3 as more capacity comes online.

This is not a small company selling into weak end markets. It is selling into the biggest AI infrastructure buyers in the world. The company has received new 800G orders from major hyperscale customers, including a $71 million order announced in April 2026. These customers demand quality, volume, reliability, and price. So, this is a meaningful validation point.

It is not the safest way to play AI, but it may be one of the most direct ways to play the optical networking bottleneck. So far, the stock has also been holding up incredibly well and now looks like it is setting up for a potential breakout for its next leg higher.

Robinhood is one of my key long-term holdings.

It’s the closest thing to a financial super app, with a huge market, an expanding moat, a visionary founder, a growing ecosystem, and a relentless speed of innovation.

But one of the key things I try to convey here is that timing is critical. Even great companies can get way ahead of themselves simply because of sentiment. Sometimes, fundamentals need time to catch up.

Robinhood has been in a correction since October last year. From peak to trough, it was down over 50%. That is a good lesson that even great companies routinely correct, and exactly why risk management is so critical, even for long-term positions. That means reducing your position when the technicals deteriorate and increasing it when they improve.

Right now, it’s finally starting to reemerge from an early-stage base, and the catalyst are the new Trump Accounts.

On launch day, the app hit #1 in finance and #4 overall in the App Store. The fastest-growing app outside of AI.

Trump Accounts are investment accounts for children, with eligible newborns from 2025 to 2028 receiving a $1,000 government contribution. The app was built with Robinhood and BNY, and funding starts on July 4, 2026. That gives Robinhood a direct role in a large government-backed savings program.

It is becoming financial infrastructure for the next generation.

AI infrastructure demand is outrunning the physical world.

Hyperscalers and AI cloud companies need massive amounts of compute capacity. Today, the constraint has moved beyond GPUs. It is power, speed, and location. Applied Digital is building large-scale AI data center campuses in places where power is available and land is easier to develop.

The winners in this cycle will not only be the companies with the best chips or models. They will also be the companies that can supply the most compute. And for that they need to secure land, power, cooling, permitting, construction capacity, and long-term customers.

Old data center model was built around internet traffic, cloud storage, SaaS workloads, and proximity to population centers. That is no longer true for AI.

Training and inference workloads do not always need to sit next to major cities. What they need most is cheap power, available grid capacity, cooling efficiency, and the ability to deploy thousands of GPUs at scale.

In June 2025, the company announced 2 roughly 15-year lease agreements with CoreWeave for 250 MW at its Ellendale, North Dakota campus. Reuters reported that the leases were worth about $7 billion over the term.

And in its fiscal Q3 2026 update, Applied Digital said Polaris Forge 2 is a 200 MW investment-grade hyperscaler campus, while Delta Forge 1 is a 300 MW AI factory campus backed by a high investment-grade hyperscaler, with initial operations expected in mid-calendar 2027.

What’s important is that Applied Digital has moved past 1 GW of contracted capacity.

In fiscal Q3 2026, revenue was $126.6 million, up 139% year over year from $52.9 million. Revenue is starting to scale as more nad more facilities come online. Adjusted revenue, which excludes the Cloud Services business, was $108.6 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $44.1 million, compared with $6.3 million in the prior-year quarter.

Now the setup looks even more interesting. Applied Digital just broke out of a 10-month base and then came back to retest the breakout area almost perfectly.

And it’s not just Applied Digital. The whole sector is starting to lead, and that is exactly what you want to see. The best moves usually happen when the stock is not moving in isolation, but together with the entire sector - as mentioned here.

Aeva is one of the more interesting small-cap names in the lidar space. It has a lot of similarities to Ouster.

Ouster is building digital lidar sensors that help machines create a precise 3D map of the physical world, while Aeva is building 4D lidar sensors that add instant velocity data, helping machines understand not just where objects are, but how fast they are moving and where they may go next.

It’s basically motion intelligence.

As AI moves from software into the physical world, machines will need a much deeper understanding of their environment. A robot, autonomous truck, drone, or industrial machine does not just need to know what is around it. It needs to know how far away objects are, how fast they are moving, and how that movement is changing in real time.

Aeva’s technology is built around 4D lidar. Traditional lidar gives machines a 3D map of the environment. Aeva’s FMCW lidar adds direct velocity measurement. That means its sensors can measure both distance and speed at the same time.

And motion is one of the hardest problems in autonomy.

A camera can identify objects. Radar can detect speed, but with less precision. Traditional lidar can map depth. Aeva is trying to combine high-resolution depth and instant velocity into one sensing layer.

That makes the company a potential beneficiary of several major trends at once: autonomous trucking, advanced driver assistance, robotics, industrial automation, defense, smart infrastructure, aerospace, and factory inspection.

The company already has early validation from important partners. Aeva is working with Daimler Truck and Torc Robotics in autonomous trucking. It has been selected for Nvidia DRIVE Hyperion. It is also used in Nikon’s APDIS industrial inspection platform, which gives the company exposure beyond just automotive.

Many lidar companies have been too dependent on the slow adoption curve of autonomous vehicles. Aeva’s opportunity is broader. If its sensors can become useful in industrial automation, infrastructure monitoring, defense systems, and factory inspection, the company has more ways to grow while the automotive market develops.

Atlas Ultra is Aeva’s newest long-range 4D lidar sensor for Level 3 and Level 4 automated driving. It is designed to sit behind the windshield and help vehicles detect objects at highway speeds. That could make adoption easier for OEMs because the sensor is more integrated and less intrusive.

In Q1 2026, revenue was $6.3 million, up about 90% year over year. Management is guiding for 70% to 100% revenue growth in 2026. That is strong growth, but from a small base.

It’s the definitely on the more speculative end. But it’s breaking out of a year long base that could be a good opportunity to initiate a position if you manage the risk accordingly.

Ouster is a lidar company. It makes sensors that help machines see the real world in 3D.

The next big AI wave is not just chatbots or ai agents. It is robots, autonomous vehicles, drones, industrial machines, smart cities, warehouses, ports, security systems, and infrastructure that can understand what is happening around them.

Its core product is digital lidar. Lidar sends out light pulses and measures how long they take to return. That creates a 3D map of the environment. A camera sees color and texture. Radar sees rough distance and speed. Lidar gives machines precise depth. And is critical for autonomy.

Ouster sells into 4 main markets: industrial, robotics, automotive, and smart infrastructure. It’s goal is to create a platform for Physical AI combining lidar, cameras, AI compute, sensor fusion, perception software, and AI models.

Its sensors can be used in warehouses, factories, mining, ports, traffic intersections, security, delivery robots, mapping, agriculture, construction, and autonomous machines.

And just recently it launched Rev8. Rev8 is the world’s first mass-produced native color lidar sensor. So, instead of needing separate camera and lidar systems, Rev8 can capture 3D depth and color together in one sensor. That can reduce hardware complexity and make sensor fusion easier for robots and autonomous systems

In Q1 2026, revenue was $49 million, up 49% year over year. Product revenue was $48 million, up 55% year over year and 18% sequentially. The company also shipped more than 12,600 lidar and camera sensors, with lidar making up around 65% of the total.

That’s why it’s become a pretty popular name among retail and institutional investors recently. And that is clearly showing in the massive increase in accumulation volume. It’s one the verge of a breakout. But keep in mind that it can be very volatile.

Innodata is one of the fastest growing software companies.

Innodata provides services and platforms for AI builders and AI adopters. Its work includes data annotation, data engineering, model training support, model safety testing, red teaming, human preference optimization, and evaluation workflows. Basically, Innodata helps AI companies and enterprises turn messy data into useful AI systems.

The most attractive part of Innodata is that it is exposed to one of the most important bottlenecks in AI: trusted data and model evaluation. AI models can be powerful, but they still make mistakes, hallucinate, fail edge cases, and behave unpredictably. For companies using AI in real products, this creates a huge need for testing, improvement, and monitoring.

It has already won over high-quality customers like Palantir. Palantir selected Innodata to provide training data and annotation for AI projects, including multimodal data involving video, imagery, and sensor analysis.

In Q1 2025, Innodata reported revenue of $58.3M, up 120% year over year. In Q1 2026, revenue reached $90.1M, up 54% year over year, and the company raised its full-year 2026 revenue growth guidance from more than 35% to 40% or more.

But it’s important to keep in mind that it can be a very volatile stock.

At first glance, Solstice looks like a specialty materials and chemicals company. It was spun out of Honeywell and has businesses across refrigerants, advanced materials, electronic materials, healthcare packaging, and industrial chemistry. But I think that simple view misses one of the most interesting parts of the company.

The key part is Metropolis Works in Illinois. This is the only uranium conversion facility in the United States. It converts uranium oxide into uranium hexafluoride, which is a required step between uranium mining and enrichment. As nuclear energy becomes more important again, especially because AI data centers need reliable power, this asset could become much more important than the market currently reflects.

Right now, Solstice is still mostly being valued like a chemicals company. That may be fair on the surface, but I think it may understate the value of the nuclear conversion business. If investors start looking at Solstice as a mix of specialty materials, nuclear infrastructure, refrigerants, electronic materials, and AI related thermal management, the valuation framework could change over time.

The recent Q1 2026 results were solid. Sales grew, guidance was reaffirmed, and the strongest growth came from the areas that matter most to my thesis: Nuclear, Electronic Materials, and Refrigerants. Nuclear revenue grew 27% year over year, helped by both pricing and volume.

The nuclear business is the main reason I’m interested, but the rest of the portfolio also adds value. Refrigerants could benefit from the transition to next generation products and the growing cooling needs of AI data centers. Electronic materials give $SOLS exposure to advanced semiconductor manufacturing. Thermal management could become more important as AI moves into robots, autonomous systems, drones, and other physical machines.

This could be a very compelling long-term opportunity. And right it's setting up for a perfect low risk entry after a breakout and retest of its previous highs.

Every chip can look great in the lab. But the lab is controlled, clean, and predictable. The real world is not. The real world is hot, unstable, messy, and unforgiving.

That is where Aehr Test Systems comes in.

Aehr builds advanced testing systems that stress-test chips before they are used in real products. These chips end up inside electric vehicles, fast chargers, solar inverters, industrial machines, data centers, and other high-voltage power systems where reliability matters. In these markets, a failed chip is not just a small technical issue. It can lead to costly repairs, downtime, safety risks, and damaged customer trust.

The company’s core focus is burn-in testing. Burn-in testing means forcing chips to operate under difficult conditions before they are shipped to customers. Aehr’s systems expose chips to heat, voltage, long operating times, and other stress factors. The goal is simple: find the weak chips before they fail in the real world.

This is especially important for silicon carbide chips, also called SiC chips. Silicon carbide is becoming one of the most important materials in modern power electronics because it can handle high voltage, high temperature, and high power more efficiently than traditional silicon chips. That makes SiC critical for electric vehicles, charging infrastructure, solar energy, industrial power systems, and other applications where efficiency and reliability are essential.

Aehr reported more than $37M in quarterly bookings in fiscal Q3 2026, driven by AI, data center infrastructure, and silicon photonics demand. Revenue was still unimpressive, but the backlog shows that demand is high. So, it might not be the strongest on the fundamentals but the technical setup looks good for short-term opportunity.

The Setup:

• Winning a major new silicon photonics customer

• The demand for AI and its supply chain is growing exponentially

• Breaking out of an ascending triangle

I've talked about Nextpower $NXT a while ago but it's worth highlighting again.

Traditional solar panels are fixed, which limits the amount of sunlight they can capture.

That’s where Nextpower comes in.

They build solar tracking systems with intelligent motors and software that make panels follow the sun throughout the day. Each tracker uses sensors, algorithms, and cloud software to adjust in real time for wind, terrain, and sunlight.

The result is up to 25% more energy output from the same panels.

Until now they’ve deployed systems on more than 90 gigawatts of solar projects across over 30 countries. And Nextracker works with many of the world’s largest renewable energy developers and utilities

They are profitable, growing steadily 25% year after year, and trade at a PE of 32.

All of this comes at a time when valuations across the solar industry have pulled back after four challenging years. The sector’s fundamentals are now starting to stabilize. As global electricity demand accelerates, driven mostly by data centers to power AI.

NXT’s earnings were pretty strong overall. They beat expectations on both revenue and earnings, with Q4 revenue around $881M and adjusted EPS of $1.05. More importantly, FY26 revenue reached a record $3.56B, up 20% year over year, and backlog hit a record $5.25B+ and management reaised FY27 revenue guidance to $3.8B to $4.1B.

The Setup:

- Energy is a huge bottleneck

- Solar demand is growing

- NXT expanding beyond basic tracker

- Breakout to new highs after basing for 5 months

Cardinal Infrastructure is one of the more interesting recent IPOs in the market.

The company went public in December 2025 and was already added to the Russell 2000 and Russell 3000 in March 2026.

Cardinal focuses on site development and civil infrastructure work. And business is booming right now because of AI.

Before a massive data center can be built, the land has to be cleared, graded, connected to utilities, drained properly, and prepared for construction.

Water systems, sewer systems, underground utilities, roads, and stormwater infrastructure all need to be installed first. None of the high-tech infrastructure works without this physical foundation.

AI data centers alone are consuming enormous amounts of land, electricity, cooling, fiber connectivity, and utility infrastructure. The companies building these facilities need contractors that can move quickly and handle large-scale development projects. Cardinal is positioning itself directly inside that trend.

In April 2026, the company announced a $24 million contract for the first phase of a large multi-phase data center campus. This is important because it is Cardinal’s first major mission-critical data center project.

And you can clearly see the demand. Revenues And there is no end in sight.

The financials also show real momentum. Full-year 2025 revenue was $456 million, up 45% year-over-year and it’s continuing to accelerate.

The Setup:

• Won its first major multi-phase data center campus contract

• Russell index inclusion brings more institutional buying

• AI data center construction is exploding

Space continues to be one of my key focus sectors. I’ve discussed the sector and some of the more interesting companies at length. But Gilat Satellite Networks is probably one of the most underrated space companies right now.

Gilat sits right in the middle of several massive long-term trends that are all accelerating at the same time: satellite internet, defense spending, global connectivity, mobility, and remote communication infrastructure.

The world is becoming more connected every year, but huge parts of the planet still lack reliable fiber or cellular infrastructure. In many cases, satellites are the only realistic solution. Gilat provides the systems and equipment that make those satellite networks work, including ground systems, antennas, in-flight connectivity technology, and defense communication solutions.

One of the biggest things that makes the company stand out is the breadth of its business. Gilat is not dependent on one customer or a single niche market. It serves commercial aviation, military and government customers, telecom operators, maritime customers, and enterprise networks. That creates a much more stable business compared to many smaller satellite companies focused on only one theme.

It also benefits from the rise of Low Earth Orbit satellite constellations. As more satellites are launched into space, the industry still needs ground infrastructure to connect those satellites back to users on Earth. Gilat helps build critical parts of that ecosystem.

In many ways, the satellite industry looks very similar to the AI infrastructure boom. Most investors focus on the big launches, but the infrastructure suppliers, the picks-and-shovels businesses behind the scenes, often become some of the biggest winners.

Gilat is more of a picks-and-shovels infrastructure supplier rather than a pure satellite operator. It focuses heavily on the ground systems, antennas, and networking technology that enable satellite connectivity. It is less flashy compared to companies like SpaceX or Rocket Lab, but that often gives it a more diversified and potentially lower-risk business model compared to companies that rely mainly on owning satellites themselves.

And unlike many speculative space or satellite companies, Gilat already generates real revenue and profits, and the business is accelerating rapidly. Revenue grew nearly 50% from $305M in 2024 to around $451M in 2026, while last quarter alone grew 75% year-over-year. Even more impressive, the company is already profitable, which is still very rare across the space and satellite sector.

Despite all of that, the stock still trades at only around 3x sales. For comparison, SpaceX is reportedly valued closer to 100x sales.

The Setup:

• Builds critical satellite communication infrastructure

• Benefits from satellite internet and defense growth

• Picks-and-shovels play on the space economy

• Generates real revenue and profits with accelerating growth

• Setting up for a breakout

This company is definitely flying under the radar of most investors.

Ormat Technologies develops, owns, and operates geothermal power plants that generate reliable 24/7 electricity using heat from deep underground.

Geothermal provides “baseload power.” That means the electricity runs 24/7, unlike solar and wind, which depend on weather conditions. As AI data centers explode in size and power usage, reliable always-on electricity becomes extremely valuable. And AI requires a ton of it. That is one of the biggest reasons geothermal is suddenly getting much more attention again.

One of the biggest recent developments was Ormat Technologies signing long-term geothermal power agreements tied to Google’s Nevada data center operations. The agreement could support up to 150 MW of geothermal capacity over time.

And this past Friday, Amazon announced it is investing in new carbon-free energy projects in Nevada to help power future data center operations in the Reno area. The plan includes 700 MW of new carbon-free capacity, including 100 MW of geothermal power, 600 MW of solar, and 600 MW of battery storage.

Big Tech is actively looking for geothermal power to support future data center growth.

Amazon also said this is its first data center powered in part by dedicated geothermal power, and that it sees significant potential for geothermal as a scalable source of firm carbon-free energy.

Ormat already owns real infrastructure and generates real cash flow today. It currently operates around 1.8 GW of total generating capacity globally across geothermal, solar, and battery storage.

For years, it has grown revenue consistently and profitably, reaching about $989M in revenue in 2025. But last week, it reported record earnings growing 40% year over year. This acceleration is clearly driven by the energy demand required for the AI buildout.

The Setup:

• Demand for reliable power is exploding

• AI data centers need 24/7 electricity

• Big Tech is desperately searching for stable clean power and signing long-term contracts

• Record quarter and growth acceleration

• Setting up for a breakout to new highs

Firefly Aerospace builds rockets, spacecraft, lunar landers, and orbital vehicles. Instead of only focusing on one part of the space industry, Firefly is trying to build a full ecosystem across launch, lunar missions, and in-space transportation.

Its main rocket is called Alpha, a small launch vehicle designed to carry satellites into orbit. Small satellite demand has exploded over the past few years because of AI, Earth observation, communications, defense systems, and satellite internet networks. More companies and governments want dedicated launches instead of waiting for rideshares on larger rockets. That creates a growing market for launch providers.

And there are still relatively few pure-play space companies. SpaceX dominates the industry. RocketLab is second on the list. And then comes Firefly.

In 2025, Firefly generated about $160M in revenue, up roughly 163% year-over-year. For 2026, the company is guiding for around $420M to $450M in revenue, nearly 3x higher year-over-year.

The Setup:

• Space is becoming a bigger national security

• Revenue growth is exploding: guidance pointing to nearly 3x growth in 2026

• Firefly is expanding beyond rockets into lunar missions, defense, and space infrastructure

The future of AI is agentic.

This also means a lot more activity behind the scenes. More automated traffic, more API calls, more background processes, more DDoS attacks, more scams, more systems failing, and simply more of everything related to cyber.

One of the sectors that will likely be a huge beneficiary is security or cybersecurity to be precise.

And in that sector Cloudflare $NET is one of the leading companies in this sector. It sits directly at the intersection of edge compute, API security, bot management, and more, which makes it a natural beneficiary of AI agents.

As more AI agents come online, Cloudflare’s ability to inspect and secure requests at the edge becomes even more valuable. This reinforces its position as the default front door for the modern internet. They also allow you too create and orchestrate your agents right in Cloudflare.

And it looks like the selloff in software might be starting to ease, and buyers are stepping back in, at least in selected names.

Keep in mind that earnings are this week so this could be the potential catalyst. Thanks to AI their businesses has started to accelerated significantly over the last two quarters and this trend is likely to continue.

The Setup:

• Agentic AI is taking off

• Software is recovering

• Earnings could the catalyst for a breakout

Amprius makes advanced lithium-ion batteries using silicon anode technology that can store more energy with less weight. They deliver longer runtime, faster charging, and better performance than many traditional battery designs.

This makes the company especially attractive for drones, aviation, defense, and electric mobility where every gram matters. And that’s why it’s becoming a real commercial winner in drones, defense, and mobility.

Potential near-time catalysts include a $21M customer order and a new U.S. manufacturing partnership to help scale production.

Price action has been flawless. Breakout and rallies on large volume and volume drying up on pullbacks. And now it's just starting to turn around again.

The Setup:

• One of the fastest growing stocks in the market

• $21 million order from a new premier China electric mobility customer

• Picture perfect volume action

• Turnaround after a pullback on low volume

One of the interesting sectors setting up are rare earths.

US rare earths supply is the #1 national security priority right now.

The United States owns almost none of the upstream capacity/refineries for AI, Robotics, to Space, they rely on other countries from Canada to China.

One of the more interesting setups right now is $UAMY, with others like $MP and $USAR looking compelling as well.

Keep in mind that this is a highly speculative sector.

The Setup:

• Policy support for critical minerals has accelerated

• New long-term strategic agreements as catalyst

• Classic VCP (volatility contraction pattern)

The space race is on.

There are rumors that SpaceX could IPO at a $1.75T valuation. If true, it would be the largest and most expensive IPO in history. Whether that valuation is justified is a separate debate. But one thing is clear: it would likely be a major positive catalyst for the rest of the space sector. Investors will likely re-rate the whole sector.

And one of the companies that is somewhere close to SpaceX is RocketLab - as I’ve written about at various points. It is one of the few public names with real launch capability.

The Setup:

• Re-rating of the whole sector

• SpaceX likely in June or July

• Potential pullback buy point

The more AI scales, the more memory the world needs.

Competitors like SK hynix are seeing demand that is still running above available supply.

That is part of the reason memory stocks have been so incredibly strong along with the rest of the AI infrastructure basket.

However, most of them are pretty extended at this point. But Micron still offers a reasonable entry point here.

The Setup:

• AI demand continues driving massive need for DRAM, NAND, and HBM

• HBM supply remains tight

• Earnings estimates keep moving higher

• Breakout into new highs

My favorite names of the Mag 7 right now are:

$NVDA, $AMZN, and $GOOGL.

I’ve talked about Nvidia last week and since then it’s up close to 10% and back to new all-time highs.

And like Nvidia, Google continues to be underrated.

• It’s the only company in the AI era with a serious AI-chip play + model play + consumer-facing applications.

• It has >8 products each serving >1B active users (think Maps, Gmail, Search, YouTube, others).

• TPUs are the only at-scale AI-chip deployment besides Nvidia.

Hence, I’m definitely looking to increase my position.

The Setup:

• Breakout to new all-time highs

• Earnings could the catalyst for the next move higher

Photonics and optics have been one of the hottest sectors lately.

Syntec Optics designs and manufactures very precise optical components. Think lenses, mirrors, and optical assemblies that control and guide light. These parts are used in things like semiconductors, medical devices, defense systems, and laser-based equipment.

Fundamentally, not much has changed. The business has been fairly stagnant, so this is more of a short-term play taking advantage of the current market sentiment. It’s a small cap stock that is very volatile, so keep that in mind.

The Setup:

• Part of the leading theme

• Just broke out of a base and retested the breakout area

• Capitalizing on short-term trend

There is not much more to say about Nvidia.

I’ve been bullish for over 10 years and still am. It remains the most important company in the world and the leader in AI.

The Setup:

• Breakout of a 7 months-long consolidation

• AI developments continue to accelerate

• Unprecedented revenue and earnings growth

• Valuation has come down while fundamentals have improved

• Semiconductor sector is hitting new all-time highs alongside $AVGO, $AMD, $TSM etc.

The SpaceX IPO is coming closer and closer. That will create a ripple effect through out the entire sector.

And Planet Labs is one of the more interesting names in this space. Planet Labs operates a fleet of small satellites that capture daily images of the Earth and turn them into data used to track changes.

The stock has been on a picture perfect advance. This is one to bookmark. The moves have been pretty linear. Every breakout is followed by a tight consolidation. It rallies, then pauses, then ralliesagain. This is exactly what leading stocks do.

The Setup:

• Breakout of tight consolidation

• Satellite data demand is exploding with massive backlogs

Tesla is setting up again after a 4 month long correction.

It’s still the best play on physical AI and the key driver will be FSD and robotaxis expanding globally. That will unlock trillions of value but there is still a long way ahead. It’s a big bet. But few people are capable of achieving that and one of that is Elon.

Tesla is not a car company anymore. It is an AI, robotics, autonomy, and energy infrastructure company wrapped inside an EV company.

And keep in mind that earnings are tonight afterhours.

The Setup:

• Breakout of a downtrend and sitting right at key moving averages

• Robotaxis starting to expand into new cities

• Investing aggressively in the AI buildout and Terrafab

• Energy business is growing rapidly

• Announced new chip AI5

I’ve had a position a while ago because the technical thesis didn’t play out.

But now it’s back on the radar and honestly it looks a lot more interesting this time around. It is finally starting to break out after almost a full year of going sideways. That said, this is still a volatile name, so it’s important to size positions accordingly.

If you go back and look at the price action, there’s a pretty clear pattern that keeps repeating. It tends to spend months consolidating and building a base, then breaks out and moves quickly just to repeat the process again. The key thing to note is that the actual breakout phases are usually short and sharp.

The Setup:

• Breakout of a year-long consolidation

• Operating leverage is kicking in leading to revenue acceleration

• Dave’s business benefits from a harder macro setup and rising inflation

• Steady compounder growing every year and every quarter

This is the first time in over a year that Bitcoin is starting to set up.

It’s not the cleanest setup, especially in this market, but it’s worth keeping an eye on and could make sense if you’re looking to start or add to a long-term position or as a short-term trading opportunity. And if this is the turning point, it will also likely start the rally in all the crypto adjacent names. But there will also be plenty of opportunities to add more.

The Setup:

• Peak selloff volume in February

• Breaking out of a bottom base

• Building higher highs

• Improving sentiment
