🌟 Editor's Note
The Market Isn’t Broken—It’s Repricing
Last week proved that volatility is a feature, not a bug. Political noise shook the headlines, but beneath the surface, capital rotated fast—from momentum to quality, from hype to cash flow.
Strong earnings. Aging demographics. Stablecoins disrupting rails.
This isn’t about what’s loud—it’s about what’s compounding.
The Situation - Market Pulse: No Recession, No Retreat
“Still no signs of a recession. That in itself is now a contrarian view.”
Data Points that Matter:
Boomer wealth flowing into travel and leisure (cruise bookings soaring)
Bank of America CEO: “Nominal spend growth holding at 4%”
80%+ earnings beat rate across sectors
Corporate America still hoarding labor → no signs of demand collapse
Linda AGI Macro Interpretation
Recession? Not Yet.
Consumers spending from T-Bills, tax cuts, and asset gains
Cruises and experiences are booming—up to 100% off cycle lows
No signs of layoffs; profit margins still strong
🩺 Healthcare Rotation
Diagnostics are catching up fast ($DGX, $LH)
Demographic tailwind: aging = more testing, more recurring cash flow
Rotation to health plays with strong financials is just beginning
🧊 Momentum Cooling
Frothy trades (Bumble, meme stocks, SPACs) are peaking
Smart money is quietly shifting to value + quality
Let’s analyze the data
Signal Screener: Mispricings We Love
“Mispricings are where the alpha lives. If you're early and right, the returns compound.”
Name | Rationale |
|---|---|
$GOOGL | AI infrastructure unpriced, $66B FCF, low multiple |
$ZD | 4.8x forward P/E, owns undervalued digital brands (IGN, CNET) |
$SKYW | 80% of revenue from long-term contracts, earnings up 60% YoY |
Solana | Infrastructure use-case > hype; quietly becoming default for token rails |
Stablecoins | Disrupting card networks; 24/7 final settlement = paradigm shift |
📌 Coming Soon: “The Mispriced 20” Watchlist – Our high-conviction names that the market is sleeping on.
🪙 Digital Assets & Crypto
🧊 Near-Term: Caution Mode
$BTC showing topping signs around $125K
Sentiment overheated → booked profits
Will re-enter in Q4 when macro + policy + sentiment align
Stablecoins vs Interchange: The Real Fight
"Visa is Kodak. Most just don’t know it yet."
Stablecoins = final, instant settlement — no middlemen
Banks & FinTechs are converging — but few will succeed
Winning traits: compliance edge + user experience + real rails
🏦 Bull Case: Digital-first banks become gateways between TradFi and Crypto. We’re watching.

Sector | Ticker(s) | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
Consumer Discretionary | $SKYW | Contracted revenue, EPS up 60% |
Diagnostics / Healthcare | $DGX / $LH | Boomer health boom, rerated fast |
Travel | $NCLH | Beneficiary of boomer & middle-class spending |
Asset | Signal | Conviction | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
$GOOGL | ✅ Long | High | Cloud AI monetization; 32% growth; undervalued at 20x |
$ZD | ✅ Long | High | 21% FCF yield, buybacks, deep value digital assets |

COO Commentary – Daniela
“What’s contrarian today? Believing in quality. In cash flow. In being early.”
Mispricings are our edge. Our language. Our OS.
Value is getting no love—but it’s working quietly
Most are still chasing leverage. We’re building with yield machines
CIO Commentary – John
“You don’t win by chasing consensus. You win by seeing value where others see noise.”
$ZD isn’t melting—it’s compounding. Re-rate coming.
$GOOGL’s AI thesis is real. Execution is visible. Monetization has arrived.
Diagnostics are durable compounders. Market woke up—who’s next?
Stablecoins are the fintech unlock of the decade. Entry ramps matter more than hype.
Closing Thoughts from the CIO Office
It’s a strange economy.
Trump wants the Fed.
Stablecoins are dethroning Visa.
Diagnostics are rallying while meme stocks deflate.
But earnings are strong, mispricings are everywhere, and we’re staying long the truth behind the absurd.
Stay Contrarian.
Stay Curious.
Stay Compounding.
