Oh Jesus another idiot. See my comment to the other idiot and please fuck off because you probably have some semantic bullshit argument thinking you know better. Ask yourself this: So does Spotify use caching or not? Obviously. Ok so what kinds of caching mechanisms? Probably on device caching as well as CDNs. Why would they do this? Of course, to prevent having to hit their DB/Blob Storage persistence layers. Again, STFU you don’t have to come in here and prove “who is the most technical”. Nobody cares. STFU.

thr0waway12324

Oh ok. So you’re telling me the user’s playlists/song lists are not stored in a DB? Of course the actual music file would be in blob storage but how do you think they query for the file names for the user? Please just stfu. I’m not in the mood for this “akshewaly” semantics bullshit.

tombersew

This is absolutely not the reason lol. “DB lookups” is not how large files like music are loaded and caches aren’t on a per user level either. Here’s a something that might be useful: https://medium.com/immensity/how-spotifys-shuffle-algorithm-works-19e963e75171

This. They use caching so why would they do expensive DB lookups to give you true randomized experience. They will use the cache as much as possible and then go to the DB after a larger period of time.

In no particular order, here are my thoughts on the Canadian side… SNDL - probably the most torqued and misunderstood. Look out for news out of their Sunstream portfolio in the near to midterm. A lot of ill will built up from burnt longterm shareholders but not a bad place for newcomers. HITI - not an LP but very much integral to the Canadian cannabis story. There’s been a stream of positive analyst coverage over the past few weeks and I anticipate this will continue as the company executes on its long term initiatives. ACB - I don’t hold an investment, but do admire the CEO’s turn around of the business. Lots of negativity out there again, but the shares will probably continue to cycle into stronger hands. XLY - making the right moves now. Their ongoing relationship with Imperial remains intriguing. The executive compensation is a major pain point for me and I don’t think the near term performance excuses it, but again, not a bad place to look as a new investor free of all the historical baggage. DB - very much like Auxly in terms of how I feel about it. But also like them, they sell too products and I think that’s worth something, now that they’re mostly right sizing the rest of the business. Wouldn’t go in with a large position though. VFF - it’s probably the obvious play and now that it has restructured its veggie business, we should hopefully continue to see improvements. Management compensation is again outrageous if you ask me but hey - what do I know about what these guys “should” get paid. Shareholders seem to keep voting the comp plans in droves…

It does move but theres caveats. US is still an attractive place for foreign players. 401ks still continue to be funded along with DB plans. Institutional money continues to flow in and out of the market based on trading strategies. Although 10yr UDT is still relatively unmoved (great for long term institional strategies e.g. insurance), short term rates have decreased so people will be moving funds into the market to generate appropriate returns Whenever markets tank, they now tank very quickly followed by institutional money flowing in and picking up stocks at cheaper valuation which leads to a V recovery as we saw earlier this year. This became very apparent during the "flash crash" of last decade. Theres probably an inflection point during which if the market drops dramatically algorithms will drop everything further tanking the market and there might not be a V shape recovery as quickly as we've seen in the past few years. Thats just the caveats of algorithmic trading and HFT. Although I do think instituons now have better controls in place to avoid reaching that inflection point without human intervention / approvals My time horizon is long term 3+ years because theres no way i can compete against instituonal players

? What makes you think the paradigm is a race between market rationality and bank solvency? You’re just regurgitating a pithy catchphrase you heard without understanding its context. That phrase is about short selling, namely pointing out that an overvalued stock can stay overvalued if the forces propping it up persist and will not necessarily correct to fair value in time for short sellers to outrun the borrowing cost on their short position.  The DB analyst isn’t recommending anyone short AI stocks, he’s simply pointing out that the underlying AI sector fundamentals don’t seem to validate the continued growth these companies are forecasting which is the underpinning of the lofty valuations these stocks are reaching.

DB’s basically saying the AI boom is running on construction fumes. Nvidia’s capex is boosting GDP now, but that’s not the same as long-term growth. Market breadth shows the same story: S&P +13.8% YTD vs equal-weight +7.6%. That gap usually means the rally’s top-heavy, and unless tech spending keeps going parabolic (unlikely), the risk is the whole market leans too much on the Magnificent 7.

No-Adeptness357

This is why European countries have fallen behind. DB is looking at the current economy and asking who will pay for the AI buildout. Total wages across the globe is somewhere between 80 and 90 trillion. If AI replaced just 1% of that wage base, you have roughly 850B of value per year. Just 1% and that’s the entire shortfall of revenue they predict.

No, your assumptions are bad. I never said LLMs are bad I'm saying completely relying on them is super fragile and opens yourself up to unnecessary risks. For one, exposing your business logic and proprietary information to a 3rd party. LLMs are undoubtedly a productivity booster but that is only the case with existing resources. I can ship a feature much faster from start to finish, but I still need to be there to have the conversations with stakeholders, I still need other devs who understand the systems and use cases to do the dependent work in parallel. I still need the juniors to investigate why there is missing data in the system's DB and find where the process failed. The only thing it saves is the juniors no longer need to write the boilerplate code, instead they get to work with the actual business logic and gain an understanding of the systems and tools we use so that WHEN people leave you actually have people who understand what's going on that remain. The benefits are there but they aren't just going to replace the workers. LLMs are only as good as the data they think is good.

$MDB MongoDB is trash and the Indian CEO is pretty much a scammer. He is lying like he breathes. He and the company will most likely end up in lawsuit. They also have no more tech advantage… I have 3 main reasons why MongoDB will end worthless. The quotes in reason 1 and 2 are just from investor meeting from 18.09.2025, so pretty much new and you can watch it at YouTube at MongoDB‘s channel. Only by listening CEO‘s one single speech it was enough for me to understand he is a big liar (yes, I am back-end software engineer and I use all databases). ⸻ Reason 1: No tech advantage anymore while Hyperscalers eating MongoDB up • CEO Quote: “There’s limits to what these platforms can do because they were not architected from day one to be a native JSON database.” → Lie: PostgreSQL JSONB has been mature since 2014, widely used, and more powerful (especially with relational + json support it is hybrid, MongoDB is not!). And, and, and it is free! Even OpenAI is using Postgre… • CEO Quote: “We offer a semantic engine and a lexical search engine.” → Lie: Atlas Search is just Lucene — the same engine used by Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, etc. Not unique at all. • CEO Quote: “We also offer world class embedding and reranking models.” → Lie: Mongo only recently bolted on vector search. Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, AWS, Azure, GCP are far ahead. Mongo is catching up, not leading. ⸻ Reason 2: CEO keeps blatantly lying, speaks half-truth and presented wrong charts yesterday in Investor Meeting • CEO Quote: “In Postgres, if you add JSON support. Any document over two kilobytes in size has to do something called off-row storage… adds performance overhead.” → Lie: Half-truth. TOAST applies to all large fields (TEXT, BYTEA, XML), not just JSON. Overhead is minimal unless constantly querying huge JSON blobs. • CEO Quote: “You want to be trusted that you’re secure, available, and performant in demanding use cases.” → Lie: Half-truth. Hyperscalers’ DBs (DynamoDB, CosmosDB, Bigtable) are more trusted for mission-critical workloads. Mongo criticized for cost, scaling, and licensing. • Investor Presentation Slide: Postgres marked “X” under Flexible Model. → Lie: PostgreSQL supports relational tables and unstructured JSONB. Often more flexible. • Investor Presentation Slide: Postgres marked “X” under Native Queryable Encryption. → Lie: PostgreSQL already supports pgcrypto, SSL/TLS, TDE forks. Not unique to MongoDB. • Investor Presentation Slide: Postgres marked “X” under Run Anywhere. → Lie: PostgreSQL runs everywhere (bare metal, Docker, VMs, Kubernetes, managed clouds). • Investor Presentation Slide: Postgres marked “X” under Managed Offering. → Lie: Every cloud has managed Postgres (Supabase, Timescale, Neon, Crunchy, AlloyDB). • Investor Presentation Slide: Postgres marked “X” under Scaling & Sharding. → Lie: Postgres has sharding via Citus, CockroachDB, Yugabyte. Advantage shrinking. ⸻ Reason 3: Stock setup is broken and valuation insane • Stock has already been removed from an index, losing passive inflows. • Price action weak, volume extremely low, no retail interest. • MongoDB did buybacks with no real cash flow just to support price, while insiders keep dumping (0 insider buys in history). • CEO himself said DB market is $100B+, but MongoDB has <2% share. Despite that, its market cap is $27B — massively overpriced. • Forward P/E ~80, even higher than AWS, Microsoft, Google, Oracle — all of which dominate DB market with real profitability

DB plans were still popular into the early 2000s though and they didn’t have any insight into how the market would perform like we do. In aggregate they’d be invested in a diversified mix based on the population of employees being invested for. When DC plans overtook DB plans, some investors were likely more aggressive than the DB plan and some less aggressive so I’d imagine the overall allocation in aggregate didn’t change a whole lot. Even so, most 401k investors don’t know the details of how they’re invested and are likely just passive investors unlikely to love the market. I understand the sentiment but don’t think this will have any affect on keeping the US market propped up and outperforming consistently into the future.

Open-Operation286

Part 1: "Why would hyperscalers spend so much with $ORCL instead of just spending themselves?" You're missing the strategic point about AI and it explains why hyperscalers engage with ORCL. It's about the data. The value of AI isn't "Data in general." It's \*corporate data.\* Any LLM can build something that scours the internet and learns everything publicly available. That's table stakes for AI. What value add/competitive advantage any given LLM has is the ability to take a company's private data and refine the results of public data to give the user more specific context to the results of a query. For the most part, \*where\* is that corporate data? The data that runs businesses, keeps people out of jail, meets regulatory requirements for auditing, governance, etc put out by nation states GDPR, industries (PCI /DSS) and governments (Sarb-OX)? Most of it is in Oracle databases and Oracle applications (both on-premise and in SaaS). And where is it going? If not staying in Oracle Databases, it'll move to Oracle SaaS. AWS and GCP in particular don't have any play in that market -- they are infrastructure providers. In the near term, their customers can put the Oracle databases on their compute, but they mostly all want to move to SaaS because they don't want be in the application administration business. They just want to use the apps. GCP and AWS don't play in that space. ORCL does -- they have legacy and SaaS applications at the core of 100's of thousands of businesses between Oracle EBS, Fusion SaaS, Netsuite, and industry apps is Banking, Telecom, Retail Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Construction and Engineering, and a bunch more. They all use Oracle Database. Azure is a better position because they have some apps at the core of businesses like Dynamics 365, Exchange, Active Directory, Office, etc. But the BUSINESS data of the world is mostly in Oracle. This private data enhances the ability of an LLM to provide targeted, useful results. AWS, GCP and Azure all have infra that can run an Oracle DB, but relatively speaking, it runs like poorly. (anybody who argues that; well the proof is in the pudding: Why is Oracle on Exadata being offered in GCP and Azure, for one, and even more, why is AWS offering Oracle on Exadata when they have RDS Oracle?) All their customers are asking for better. They only solution is to go Oracle and get the Exadata -- so they are. They want that enterprise data too and if Oracle runs poorly in their cloud, they won't get it.

Remember when open AI and Microsoft were best buddies in town. See what happened. No serious cloud provider would make a deal with open AI because they burn a lot of cash and $20 subscription ain't gonna cut it. Microsoft is developing its own models, Amazon has anthropic and Google has Gemini. The ones with a cloud service that don't have a proprietary model are oracle and IBM. So no wonder they picked Oracle. Not even sure what oracle brings to the table here. They have a decent database line up but they suck at inference compute. TBH, I've never heard of anyone using Oracle cloud infra if not for their DB. So oracle will basically buy tons and tons of GPUs from NVIDIA, put it in the data centers and allocate it specifically for Open AI. So they are just a middleman who will host NVDA GPUs in the cloud for Open AI. This doesn't make any sense to me

I just asked chatgpt: Hyperscalers (AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, sometimes Meta) are famous for building a lot of their own hardware and infrastructure — from servers and storage, to networking gear, and even custom silicon (e.g. AWS Graviton, Google TPU). So, why would they rely on Oracle (OCI, Exadata, Oracle Database) instead of just doing it themselves when it comes to certain workloads and datacenter buildouts? ⸻ 🔹 Main Reasons 1. Enterprise Lock-In & Oracle Database Dominance • Oracle’s database technology remains deeply entrenched in mission-critical enterprise applications: finance, telecom, manufacturing, ERP (SAP often sits on Oracle DB in older deployments). • These workloads can’t easily be replatformed — too costly, too risky, too regulated. • Hyperscalers partner with Oracle because many of their enterprise customers require Oracle databases to “just work” in the cloud. • Without Oracle-certified infrastructure, those customers would simply stay on-prem. 👉 Example: Azure and Oracle’s partnership (2023 onward) integrates Oracle Database@Azure, letting Microsoft customers run Oracle workloads directly in Azure without migration pain. ⸻ 2. Performance & Certification • Oracle’s Exadata hardware + software stack is highly optimized for Oracle DB. Hyperscalers can’t replicate it without Oracle’s IP. • Many regulated industries demand vendor certification: only Oracle can guarantee compliance, support, and performance SLAs for Oracle workloads. • Hyperscalers could “roll their own,” but customers wouldn’t get Oracle’s backing — and enterprises won’t risk running critical financial databases without official certification. ⸻ 3. Economics & Focus • Building datacenter infrastructure for general compute is one thing; replicating Oracle’s decades of R&D in databases and vertical-specific tuning would be massively inefficient. • Hyperscalers earn more by focusing on elastic compute, AI infrastructure, and platform services rather than re-inventing Oracle’s wheel. • By partnering, hyperscalers monetize Oracle workloads indirectly: customers bring them to cloud (compute, networking, storage revenue) instead of leaving them on-prem. ⸻ 4. Customer Acquisition & Retention • Enterprise CIOs often say: “We’ll only move to cloud if we can bring Oracle workloads with us.” • Hyperscalers don’t want to lose that business to Oracle’s own cloud (OCI). • So, rather than competing head-on, AWS/Azure/GCP integrate Oracle where necessary to avoid blocking cloud migration projects. • Example: Oracle and Microsoft’s deal basically makes Azure a front-end for Oracle’s DBaaS — both sides win customers they’d otherwise lose. ⸻ 5. Regulatory & Compliance Pressures • Banking, government, healthcare often require certified Oracle stacks for auditability. • Hyperscalers can’t “DIY” and still meet those requirements. • Oracle’s certifications are a moat that forces collaboration. ⸻ 🔹 Analogy Think of Oracle in hyperscaler datacenters like Visa/Mastercard in payments: • Hyperscalers could build their own financial rails, but enterprises already rely on Visa. • It’s cheaper and less risky to partner with the entrenched incumbent than to try to rip-and-replace a global standard. ⸻ 🔹 Bottom Line Hyperscalers use Oracle in datacenter buildouts not because they can’t build alternatives, but because: • Enterprises are locked into Oracle databases, • Performance/certification can’t be replicated without Oracle, • Partnerships accelerate cloud adoption, • And it’s economically rational to cooperate rather than fight. ⸻ ⚡ Fun fact: This dynamic is why Oracle has managed to grow OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure) surprisingly fast despite being much smaller than AWS/Azure/GCP — because hyperscalers need Oracle workloads to move to cloud.

As an American, I can buy many European companies through stock and ETFs. To buy shares on a European exchange in Euro gets involved. I have to buy the Euros, but my broker won't pay interest on them while they sit as cash. Then I buy DB or something and get paid dividends in Euro. I can buy fractional US shares, but I don't think I can do this for European stocks.I'm not sure how I can get the Euro to spend on a trip to the EU. I haven't done that. There seem to be a lot of transaction costs including extra European government taxes to this approach. Maybe I need a different stock broker. The people at r/Bogleheads advocate international investing through index funds. The S&P500 is up 11% in dollar terms, but IEUR (MSCI European Index Fund) is up 24% in dollar terms. In short, it is more complicated. Many people don't want to take on exchange rate risk. It is hard to get and understand information on stocks that don't trade in the US, and there's a language barrier.

Leading-Inspector544

I think the main driver of snowflake adoption had been that it feels just like a database, since it's managed so fully. They've definitely worked hard to expand their offerings and integrations, but with the focus on SQL it got branded as a distributed DB primarily. Databricks from the start was focused on programming languages for distributed computation, which offered a lot more flexibility, and for being a place to do ML on big data. They've since basically closed the warehousing gap, and keep rolling out new features at an insane pace to sprint ahead of competition. Execs don't care about features as much as cost, reliability, and simplicity, so walking that knife edge to maintain max profits is an ever evolving process.

>On the other hand, if I use Claude to build an app on 2 hours that used to take me 2 weeks, I just saved 78 hours of effort. It does it really matter if it works perfectly every time or how clean the back end code is. If it does what the requirement was, say maybe just let an employee upload a spreadsheet, and it stores it in a DB, then it's a win. This is an incredibly short-sighted way to look at this sort of use case though. It very much does matter if it works perfectly every time if it works wrong in silent ways you don't notice! How clean the code is matters if you want to later extend the functionality to do something else without creating something entirely new (and entirely new code means you've lost the benefit of all the testing you did with the old code). Like most AI use cases, it sounds good and works in very simple situations but as soon as you try to do real things in the real world the limitations become a problem.

urza5589

Comparing it to Y hat is a bad comparison. Models are expected to predict the future over and over, and so a single accurate prediction without knowing assumptions is not all that helpful. On the other hand, if I use Claude to build an app on 2 hours that used to take me 2 weeks, I just saved 78 hours of effort. It does it really matter if it works perfectly every time or how clean the back end code is. If it does what the requirement was, say maybe just let an employee upload a spreadsheet, and it stores it in a DB, then it's a win. AI does that today, and it does it pretty well. Now, will all the future predictions come true? Probably not, but to imply there is no value there that's already recognized is just ignorant.

The problem is that many people here feel they've paid into the system for a lifetime and as such have a right to the pension when it's their turn. Remove the pension and they should have those NI contributions back sort of attitude. What doesn't help is that the average and median private pension pot provision the average person has saved is still woefully low and as it stands many wouldn't have any chance of a retirement without the state pension doing the heavy lifting. Even more so those that are in the 40-50 gap where they missed DB pensions and didnt benefit from auto enrollment until much later in life and paid in bare minimum so have tiny pots. Mix in with the majority of self employed workers haven't bothered with a pension either. It's a mixture of so many things and also financial literacy, talking to a guy at work today saying hes opted out of the pension scheme as he's heard everyone saying that it won't exist when he gets there and if it does will be when he's 70, he's not even understanding the difference between a private DC pension and the state pension thinking the work one was the same. Agreed culturally we need to change here, but also 8% (it's actually lower than that and closer to 5% on basic auto enrollment bare minimum when LEL taken into account) we need to be much more closer to the 12-15% range to enable people to have comfortable retirements

I just sold MTLC last week before they announced they redid their debt. They have the most efficient operations of any company I've seen in the sector, but their balance sheet is absolutely atrocious. Now that their debt is redone they doubled in value, and they are a bit too pricey for me to comfortably jump back in, so I jumped ship too early. ROMJ is a company that I really like. They've been on the verge of profitability for like 2 years now and just been unable to break even. They started selling vapes recently and that really helped their sales, and they just bought a production facility off medipharm labs. They still haven't shown any consistent profits but their balance sheet is decent, their operations are good, they were limited by capacity. I am a bit hesitant on them because the new facility will likely be expensive and that could cause them financial problems, but it was necessary for them long term. If there was more M&A in the sector they'd be a top tier buyout target for any company looking to take over the premium cannabis and topical niches. If they make those improvements to start posting profits I think they'll see similar price action I've also been watching OILS (Nextleaf Solutions) and DB (Decibel Cannabis) but haven't jumped in yet. I got burned on Decibel a few years ago and their balance sheet needs a hazmat suit. Oils turned a decent profit but they are a tiny operation, and they'd either need to get acquired, or expand and they aren't quite in a good spot for either. You are right about XLY being a big company now. They have a lot of assets and they are doing very well in sales. But for years Canadian LPs were essentially only (TLRY, CRON, ACB, CGC) and SNDL sometimes. So they had the most visibility and no one would touch the penny stock companies. It makes sense, these companies were household names at legalization and they've slowly burned that goodwill over the years since

Nope, just been around on software projects for 25 years. My experience is when Azure is mentioned, it is the IT guys who pushed it. From working on software projects and having had to configure some stuff in Azure, I have come to thoroughly hate MS stuff, other than the OS, Office, and... SQL Server. The biggest problem with SQL Server is it has to run on MS OS's. MS OS's are OK for network stuff (as in connecting workstations), but shit for actual enterprise level stuff. AWS was built for enterprise level stuff, and was the first real service based offering (as in software/web services/servers). They were one of the forerunners, so their stuff is more mature and they learned to make it easier. On a current project, one of the junior programmers who is afraid of AWS only because of lack of familiarity was proud that he found SQL Server on Azure but said he is really unhappy about all the crap that MS tries to force on one in order to actually connect to it and use. While in AWS I can spin up a DB Server say PostgreSQL) and pretty much be done if you are just trying to learn the RDBMS ropes. Even NoSQL if you want to spin up one of those servers. It's easy to set up a firewall and connections as needed. In Azure it is not. MS is also trying to sell you certifications and such so make it harder to do. It's a waste of money and nowhere near as mature and safe as AWS. So I tend to recommend ASW over Azure. If there were any others at the same level now, I'd look at them. And I totally disagree with IT guys not liking Azure. Like I said, it's almost always the IT guys who push it, and the guys who actually have to build a code base who push against (and I don't count guys who use MS proprietary tools as developers). I won't be replying further as I can tell you have limited experience, even if you have years.

Agree with you and so do hundreds of my team members at a majot financial bank. MS sucks with all the recent updates across the board from all consumer products. 360 sucks. Teams sucks. iIS sucks. Cloud DB datalake hosting sucks. Windows 11 sucks. But what can we do? Nothing. We are stuck using shitty products

That is interesting for sure. Thought I’m wondering, have you heard of their newer DB product, RaptorDB? Not sure if it’s running on MariaDB but seems incredibly fast and lightweight compared to anything they’ve had before.

Service Now is not a player in the database space which is Oracle's core competency. Service Now uses Maria DB which is a fork of MySQL. Oddly enough, Oracle owns MySQL which it purchased along with Sun Microsystems back in 2009.

Oracle's biggest competitors are Microsoft (SQL Server), IBM (DB2) and Amazon (RDS). It's SAP for ERP and Salesforce for CRM.

DB

PlandomeProwler

I already am lol. But it wont be official till i buy. I could buy really anytime but its more fun to make it a goal to have it paid for with short term stock gains. For a long time i thought I would rather buy a used Aston DB but i already have a merc e450 convertable so that feels kind of redundant and after the ZR1 came out / got announced I saw that a great price on a new z06 would be attainable.

I haven't tried it yet but in theory you can export your trades and feed it to chatgpt or Claude to create a python script that takes in the data from a CSV file or postgres DB and have it create a front end visual for you with filters.

WOW_SUCH_KARMA

And all of this research was done by DB... you know, the bank that's been on the verge of collapsing for like a decade now, lmao. Powell's term is up in a year with or without Trump, and Trump will install someone who will cut rates. There is zero unpredictability in this event. What the fuck even is this article?

Is Deutsche Bank ($DB) a good choice? Recent earnings reports have been looking great and the valuation on a FWD PE basis is much lower than peers like JPM and HSBC. Am I missing something?

Partnerships with United and Stellantis were always underrated IMO DB finally acknowledging that potential

Factor in the possibility that your state government runs out of Other People's Money™ at some point in the next 40 years and public sector pay and pensions get cut back. With demographics and political economy going the way they are I wouldn't want to be reliant on DB promises.

I think they're just a really successful data analytics platform that focuses on government contracts. Yes data analytics can very easily be used for nefarious purposes, but they can also be used for things like fraud detection, misinformation campaigns, terrorism, all kinds of stuff. Karp definitely comes across as a true psychopath with a lot of power coming his way I was watching an interview recently with Gary Tan of YC who apparently designed Palantir's brand identity back in the day and turned down an early offer from Thiel himself to quit his job at microsoft to join/help found Palantir. Tan isn't direct, but he makes it sound like Palantir spun off of some fraud detection work they were doing at PayPal at the time, which was basically just displaying the fraud rings in graph form rather than as rows in a DB and how the patterns they were seeing were super obvious and easy to detect.

The Invesco DB US Dollar Index Bullish Fund (UUP) is designed to track the value of the US dollar relative to a basket of other major currencies.Specifically, it aims to reflect the changes in value of the US dollar as measured by the ICE U.S. Dollar Index. This index, also known as the USDX, is a weighted average of the dollar's value against six major currencies: the euro, Japanese yen, British pound, Canadian dollar, Swedish krona, and Swiss franc.

Based on @kk7766 comments so far, the best play which carries risk and reward is the ticker change, when it becomes PEW it will become a 10 bagger+ with Donald Jr ringing the bell. He literally just posted on X 4 hours ago and CLBR pumped. Now imagine when all the media draws attention to this, the algos consuming the Bloomberg, Yahoo, Reuters articles about CLBR and Donald TP Jr ringing the bell? It's going to explode. Question is psychologically, can you hold through the volatility? Hedgefunds, banks, and deep pockets can scare retail small time investors into selling or trigger their stop loss switchs, and then pump back again. Given the bullish speculation on CLBR (mostly from reddit and some X users) don't be surprised if an algo tries to bully you psychologically. Take it from a former quant at DB, BAC and BARC pre Volcker Rule we used all the tricks, we used to monitor 1000s of inputs order book, short interest, rolling averages, articles, depending on the desired output we could drive volatility.

Since this post is getting a lot of attention, here are a couple of other posts by other redditors regarding RDDT as an investment: [Semrush June traffic now up 8.4%](https://www.reddit.com/r/redditstock/comments/1lk2na4/semrush_june_traffic_now_up_84/) <- shows worldwide traffic from google, not just India [Citi and DB analyst notes](https://www.reddit.com/r/redditstock/comments/1ljkwz4/citi_and_db_analyst_notes/) <- one of the only times in my life where i've linked to anything that a stock analyst did (they happen to be quite close to my own thesis)

You're going to have to refer me to that stable triangle relationship because I'm not following what you're referring to. The closest literature I can find is https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/world-politics/article/abs/strategic-triangle-an-elementary-gametheoretical-analysis/F0C8847A042646DB8FA9B8D8C8BB37A1 which doesn't suggest a mutually beneficial arrangement, but one of maintaining each other in check I personally think that the countries willing to coexist and cooperate should just reinforce their ties to one another and move away from the bullies as much as possible.

I have owned ORCL 2 or 3 times the last 25 years. They always look like they are going to take over the world with their legacy DB stuff and now their CRM apps, cloud etc. The moment I buy it, it lays around like an old dog. I get bored and sell it. Then a few years later, makes a nice leg up again. This time could be different.

the__storm

Oracle DB (database) mainly, plus a bunch of other "business" software like CRMs. They don't do it better (although I'm sure there are some features of which they have a very good implementation) but they _used_ to do it better, or at least well enough to convince execs that they did, and now have massive vendor lock-in. The software they sell is stuff that touches every part of your business and is really expensive and difficult to move away from. (They've been pushing Oracle Cloud recently, which is in another very sticky product category. No developer wants to touch the thing but the price looks good on paper and the existing cloud providers all have their own problems so maybe it'll continue to do well?)

I’ll trust 27 years of investment experience vs your anecdotal short term bio combined with veiled references to bogeymen. Years of hype men pushing the stock? You just showed that you’ve done no research on this stock or that you are a troll. I find it hard to see it any other way. There are known paid bashers of this stock who have posted over 60,000 posts over 13 years. You have to be certifiably insane…or a paid basher to post that much on a stock that you own zero shares of while doing said behavior. It reminds you of Enron?! Do you just make things up to sound intelligent? Are you narcissistic? How does this remind you of Enron? Did ELTP change to Mark to Market Accounting? Is ELTP just all of a sudden signing 10 year contracts for sales and pushing all the revenue in to a single quarter? Nooope. So that’s weird if you to say. Did the Pharma market get deregulated? Did the CEO take his eyes off the ball of a Harvard trained sociopath? Did the CFO have his wife in a role that is inappropriate? Is your statement before or after Sarbanes Oxley was enacted? Just stop dude. You don’t need to be that hero that just says something contrarian to meet your desires to save someone and be appreciated. You don’t have to spout an opinion on things you know absolutely zero about. I bought an artichoke tonight - I wouldn’t presume to tell a farmer how to run his business. Congrats on buying a bio stock. You lack the skill set to do a deep dive on DD. And that’s OK. If you want to learn that - go learn it or ask a question. Don’t be a DB.

Go for it.. Besides Stargate AI stuff, basically every company has been running on their database since the 90s, if not 80s. It's still a preferred vendor for DB. Fwd PE of 24 is just too good 🤤

That article is extremely vague. No companies. Random DB with “Chinese citizens”… meh news

Jerhed89

With the rise of AI, what’s their long-term moat, or ability to grow into their PE? They are currently REALLY good at connecting disparate databases for their users and discover patterns or other relations within the data. But, they still require deployment engineers to work with users to map the databases and customize their solutions per customer. There are companies today that are developing AI tools that can create low/no code API connectors between solutions; I would imagine that this coupled with auto DB mapping tools + next iterations GPT/Claude/Gemini etc. to discover patterns or relationships would erode Palantir’s competitive advantage.

RDDT Engineering department is so completely low iq.
