I keep hearing—enthusiastically, worryingly—from respected financial media and also three blokes at my local pub that meme coins are fads, sparkly distractions for the chronically sleep-deprived and those with too much bandwidth for late-night Discords. Sensible people say: “Meme coins have no use case. They always die.” Counterpoint: Dogecoin has stubbornly not died for a literal decade and, maddeningly, sits among the very tallest of the crypto top 10.

In this garden of fortunes, two cultivars rise—Nvidia (NVDA), the ancient oak whose branches cradle the nests of a thousand data birds, and BigBear.ai (BBAI), the sapling whose rapid sprouting has drawn both wonder and whisper. Let us walk among their leaves.

The biotech arena, that modern coliseum of innovation and avarice, demands we confront its central paradox: the marriage of noble intent and base ambition. Here, Viking Therapeutics and Recursion Pharmaceuticals emerge as protagonists in a tale not merely of science, but of human aspiration in its most fraught form.

Behold the insignia of Amazon: beneath the word lies an arrow, modest yet deliberate, stretching from A to Z. This glyph, seemingly innocuous, conceives a labyrinth within itself—a map suggesting that all things imaginable reside here. Yet, as any contrarian might muse, does such boundlessness not also imply a certain emptiness? For what labyrinth contains no center?

Thing is, you can’t just look at a stock’s price and call it a day. No, you’ve got to understand the behind-the-scenes soap opera—what terms like “revenue streams” really mean, or if that “growth potential” is just a fancy way of saying “we’re hoping for the best.” Because prices go up and down for reasons, and often those reasons are more complicated than a customer trying to assemble IKEA furniture without the instructions. You need to see what’s actually happening, not just get distracted by the shiny numbers.

THE NUMBERS ARE SCREAMING. USER GROWTH? 6%. AD IMPRESSIONS? 11%. PRICE PER AD? 9%. IT’S A MELTDOWN OF SUCCESS, AND ZUCKERBERG IS SITTING THERE WITH A SMIRK, LIKE HE JUST INVENTED FIRE USING A LENS MADE OF GLASS AND DREAMS. HIS AI INVESTMENTS? A FORTRESS OF CONVERSIONS, DRIVING 5% MORE CLICKS ON INSTAGRAM AND 3% ON FACEBOOK. THIS ISN’T JUST TECHNOLOGY—IT’S A WAR ON INATTENTION, AND META IS WINNING WITH A GUN IN ONE HAND AND A CHAINSAW IN THE OTHER.

The land of artificial intelligence is vast and unyielding, a frontier where giants tread and small hands claw for footholds. Investors, like parched wanderers, seek streams of growth and the shelter of a moat. Palantir, with its tools of data organization, has carved a canyon in this terrain. It began as a contractor for the government, a place where secrets are currency and contracts are written in ink and fear. Now, it stretches its tendrils into the commercial world, where the soil is richer but the storms fiercer. Here, its commercial arm grows at a rate that outpaces even its own shadow, rising 71% in the first quarter of 2025—though whether this is a harvest or a fever remains to be seen.

Had you entrusted $1,000 to this fledgling enterprise, you would now possess $3,350. A modest triumph, one might say, though hardly the stuff of legend. Yet if you had reinvested dividends—a discipline requiring both patience and surrender—you would command $4,105. This, dear reader, is not mere arithmetic but a parable of compounding, that quiet alchemy of time and reinvestment.

So, let’s set aside the comforting tedium of spreadsheets for a cosmic ramble through five technology stocks that are outgrowing their trousers by at least 25% per year. (And yes, I do realise trousers don’t technically grow, but given current market volatility, who’s to say what won’t happen next?).

If you had—by fortune, whim, or dare—a solitary share in Nvidia at its public debut, you’d no longer be in possession of one mere slip of paper. Thanks to Wall Street’s peculiar fondness for arithmetic acrobatics (stock splits), you’d be the proud holder of a positively unruly herd: 480 shares. That’s right, your quiet, singular stock would have multiplied faster than rumors in a small town, courtesy of half a dozen splits that chopped, diced, and reconstituted your investment with the vigor of an overzealous cook eager to stretch a meal for twenty out of one sorry chicken.
