@kermankohli GCP is baked into $GOOGL's price already. $META's cloud optionality is obviously not. You may prefer the known thing but its the unknown things that over much more asymmetry.
PAA Research on X
Tractor Supply lowered guidance but rose modestly in a tough market after a severe share-price decline, reviving debate over whether the former growth compounder is washed out.

$mRna shots don't work either but it has a $25B market cap. https://t.co/vvreFW1UpQ

Broken Moats on X
Danaher rose from $165 to $190 despite disappointing bioprocessing sales and guidance, while Thermo Fisher and Repligen fell on weak results.

@benbstwits Warren Buffett is 96 years old. He had every opportunity to buy $GOOGL over the last 20 years and didn't. The fact that he is showing up now is not the flex you think.

@valuedrift American $AAL whiffed earnings too.
