A Chemical Waltz: Wilshire’s Gamble Amidst Huntsman’s Plunge

The SEC filing, a document as dry as the polyurethanes Huntsman produces, revealed that First Wilshire’s third-quarter purchases had inflated its position in HUN to 1.13 million shares, valued at $10.13 million by quarter’s end. This numerical ballet was no accident of arithmetic but a calculated choreography, blending fresh acquisitions with the ebb and flow of share prices like a chemist balancing equations. The fund’s latest move, however, reads less like a scientific formula and more like a poet’s gamble-betting on a revival in a stock that has plummeted 45% over the past year, a decline so steep it would make a black swan envious.

Camtek’s Record Revenue and a Fund’s Mysterious $3M Exit Amid 30% Rally

The transaction, recorded in the annals of financial bureaucracy, reduced First Wilshire’s stake to 206,424 shares, valued at $21.68 million by quarter’s end. This amounted to a 1.94% shift in the fund’s total reportable assets under management. A number, yes, but in the theater of investing, numbers are mere props. The true performance lies in the subtext: a 30% ascent in Camtek’s share price over the past year, outpacing the S&P 500 by double digits. Yet here we are, witnessing a ballet of profit-taking and portfolio discipline, choreographed by the invisible hand of risk management.

That’s finance-speak for “Hey, boss, we’re buying a chunk of that California oil company!” According to the SEC filing (dated November 14), they now hold $4 million in CRC shares. Their portfolio now boasts 13 “reportable positions”-which, in plain English, means they’ve got 13 investments they can’t hide from their mom… or the government.

In late 2025, Tether, that purveyor of digital promissory notes, startled the footballing world with a bid for Juventus so bold it could’ve made a Roman emperor blush. Alas, the Agnelli clan, guardians of the Old Lady of Turin, spurned the offer like a suitor with questionable credit history. Yet fear not! Tether’s chieftains, Ardoino and Devasini-diehard Juve fans with wallets thicker than a Victorian novel-remain undeterred. With a 10% stake already secured and liquidity rivaling the English Channel, they’re poised to outlast the Agnellis’ resolve. After all, what’s a paltry $1.2 billion when you’ve got reserves that could bankroll a small nation’s GDP? 🏦

Bitcoin’s Midlife Crisis: CDD Plummets, Coinbase Chaos & Why You Should Care (Spoiler: Maybe Don’t)

Let’s talk about the elephant in the blockchain: that massive Coinbase transfer that sent the CDD metric into a tailspin 🐘📉. If CDD were a reality TV show contestant, it would’ve been eliminated in week three for being “too dramatic.” But here we are, watching it crash like my diet when someone mentions chocolate. The metric, which basically tracks how long coins have been chilling in a wallet before being spent, took a nosedive. It’s like your friend who swore they’d never sell their vintage Beanie Babies… until they needed rent money.
