Mini Case Study – AeroVironment Crashes Drone maker falls from the sky as acquisition shows all signs of backfiring.

This is an example of what happens when overly promotional management over-hypes a deal that never made sense in the first place. $AVAV www.herbgreenberg.com/p/mini-case-...

New lawsuit against $ZTS over the drug that killed my beloved dog, Max, nearly a year ago. I'm one of 19 plaintiffs in LA County. $ZTS lied to pet owners like me about safety of the drug. More details here. unicourt.com/case/ca-la24...

CoreWeave Crosses a Line Also, updates on Turning Point, Shake Shack, Veeva, plus the latest drama in Hims.

To say I shoehorned stuff in here would be an understatement. Part of it is paid, but a bunch is free. Cheers.

So far, we’ve gotten into:

1. The oil-tanker escort business
2. The shipping-insurance business
3. The militia-arms and finance business

And it’s only Tuesday.

I still think that when we look back on $OWL, that @cnbc interview the other day will be remembered as a 'key' moment. And the co's attempt to spin @jimcramer and Faber will be the moment w/in the moment. Clip below, full link here: www.herbgreenberg.com/p/the-wrap-a...

2/ But hey, when all else fails, $STRC yields 11.25% and trades at par, so all is well with the world. (He said, with sarcasm.)

1/ Musings: Can’t help but wonder how everybody who got hooked on the “just tell me the symbol” gamification of the markets – and the easy double/triples, supercharged by options – is doing right about now? Not talking about the pros, but everybody who piled in b/c it was so easy.

A useful non-financial lesson I've learned from Warren's example is that the world isn't waiting for my opinion on every topic. I'm slow-thinking anyway; it takes a while for me to form a view on complex subjects.

How Dangerous Is This Market? So dangerous that a work of dystopian fiction – described by its authors as a "thought exercise" – could freak out investors.

The market’s short-lived reaction to the report by Citrini Research about a post-AI world of 2028 says far more about the dangers of this market than what level of fiction the report’s predictions will or will not have turned out to be.

i take the view of someone who often drives 400+ miles in a single bound and arrive somewhere where there is no charging at the destination... and would have to seek it out,a nd take the time to recharage.

Short of never driving far from home, I never understood why I'd want to panic about finding a charging station, then spend time at one. Let alone the extra drain on my solar, which is already starting to cost me as the state raises taxes/fees on solar use. Hybrids always made more sense.

Things don’t matter till they do…

That’s especially true with the most dopamine-driven gamification of the stock market ever, which has put a new twist on the old saw of what it means to “play the market.” www.herbgreenberg.com/p/the-wrap-p...

Cable news commercials that are reason enough to stop listening: The time share guy, the guy pitching life insurance whose father died when he was a kid, the "yes, even term life insurance!" guys.

The Moral of the Story of Hims (So Far) When I first wrote about Hims in May 2024, my mistake was trying to be rational at a point when the market was about to become irrationally unhinged…

$HIMS was in the right place at the right time with the right loophole allowing it to sell a compounded version of the right drug, just as they were lifting off the launchpad. But under the surface, its core business was unwinding… www.herbgreenberg.com/p/the-moral-...
