They reported revenue of $11.5 billion last quarter. Seventeen percent growth. Not terrible. But the operating margin…28.2%. Wall Street wanted 31.5%. Thirty-one-point-five! It’s like they’re expecting perfection. And now everyone’s hyper-focused on this margin. It’s a margin! It’s not a moral failing. They gave guidance, of course. More numbers. More expectations. It’s just…a lot.
A whopping 111 million shares went zipping about today – a truly enormous number. That’s 133% more than usual, which suggests a lot of folks are having a bit of a fidget with their investments. Remember when Grab first popped onto the scene back in 2020? It’s tumbled a rather alarming 63% since then. A bit like a poorly balanced stack of pancakes, really.
As confirmed by the meticulous scribes at S&P Global Market Intelligence, Rivian’s shares have lost approximately 11.2% of their value since last Friday’s closing bell. Which, in the currency of investor confidence, is roughly equivalent to a dragon losing a few scales.
The long-anticipated bill was postponed Wednesday night after a late policy debate, following prominent industry figures’ withdrawal of support for the CLARITY Act, prompting the committee to halt proceedings. 🕵️♂️
Apparently, on January 12th, these guys at Peak decided ANGL wasn’t for them anymore. 236,382 shares. Vanished. It’s not like they sold a little bit. They went all in on the exit. And the SEC had to document it. The SEC. Like anyone cares. It’s just more paperwork. More things to file. And for what? So someone can track who’s buying and selling what? It’s exhausting.
They acquire companies—Interactions being the latest—speaking of ‘strengthening position’ and ‘unlocking opportunities.’ Fine words. But what does it mean for the driver, weary from a long shift, relying on this ‘agentic AI’ to reroute traffic, to book a room, to simply find a moment’s peace? It’s a promise of ease, yes, but built on the backs of programmers, of data miners, of the unseen hands that feed the algorithm. The market sees potential; I see a widening gulf between those who profit from convenience and those who provide it.
The firm, in a filing of the sort that now constitutes the modern chronicle, has liquidated its entire stake – 154,705 shares – in the purveyor of wholesome, if increasingly suspect, produce. One gathers the decision wasn’t taken lightly, though the market’s reaction – or, more accurately, lack thereof – suggests a certain indifference on the part of the wider investing public. The fund’s portfolio, one assumes, will be better occupied elsewhere.
An official document, a sort of scroll penned by the SEC (a group of very serious people who like to keep track of things), revealed that Hara Capital decided to add Noble to their collection during the last quarter. It’s a bit like a magpie spotting a shiny new object, really.
Three names presently attract a certain… subdued attention. AbbVie, Micron Technology, and Adobe. They present themselves, not as beacons of innovation, but as perhaps… less flawed vessels than most. A faint promise, certainly, but one that, in the current climate, feels almost… substantial.
The filing with the SEC revealed a deliberate act – an initiation, a planting of a seed in what many perceive as barren ground. RPM Capital, it seems, is not deterred by the chill wind that has buffeted StubHub since its emergence into the public light. The stake represents 6.36% of their reported U.S. equity assets as of December 31st – a significant weighting, a quiet declaration of faith.
