I see no way to tell the eventual winners from the losers at this point. First split - room temp vs supercooled. Second split assuming room temp wins - atom based vs photonics vs other. Third split - all the various companies and governments around the world racing down various atom based vs photon based vs weird other paths. Lot of these projects aren't public companies.  It's all hype. But the hype has a real future revolution backing it. How much is the hype worth? Maybe more than prices were a couple years ago. Not as much as prices are now. Example IONQ. There's no guarantee IONQ won't get beat by Atom Computing, some Chinese photon company, a deep freeze monster at Google or some national project in the EU you never heard of.

Quick fact checks and things worth reconsidering: 1) Valens isn’t just a “talked about” asset — it’s already integrated and creating real synergies. SNDL completed the Valens acquisition in early 2023, bringing in extraction, processing, and manufacturing capabilities that materially expanded product offerings and lowered cost structures. The combined company generates over $1 B in pro-forma revenue and SNDL has realized annualized cost savings that have already exceeded targets. 2) They’re not sitting on GMP hopes ,they are executing partnerships. SNDL has signed agreements with HYTN for EU-GMP-certified manufacturing and received initial purchase orders under that partnership. HYTN will process EU GMP product for export to regulated markets like the UK, showing SNDL is moving toward standardized pharmaceutical production capacity, not just implying it. HYTN Innovations Inc. 3) They do have a strategic balance sheet , no debt & large cash/investments. As of early 2025, SNDL reported hundreds of millions in cash and marketable securities, zero debt, and ~$1.1 B in net book value. That gives them flexibility to deploy capital, buy back stock, and pursue growth or restructuring opportunities. 4) The U.S. optionality you dismiss isn’t zero , it’s structured differently. SNDL’s SunStream vehicle holds secured positions in U.S. cannabis operators that can convert into equity if federal law changes (e.g., Schedule III rescheduling, which would unlock banking and tax efficiencies). If that catalyst hits, those positions instantly become operating assets with real revenue potential. This is a legally embedded upside, not just narrative fluff. 5) They’re strategically pruning and optimizing operations, not just holding failing assets. SNDL has rationalized its facility footprint, cut costs, improved margins, and is expanding higher-growth segments (e.g., infused products, retail data monetization). These are execution moves toward profitability, not just high-level promises. Yes, SNDL has legacy challenges and the transition isn’t complete ,but facts show they’re actively executing acquisitions, reducing costs, improving cash flow, building GMP partnerships, and holding structured optionality in the U.S.. That’s a lot more than “vague words on a slide.” If you’re bearish because you think nothing is happening behind the scenes, the actual filings and press releases suggest there are operational and strategic catalysts worth examining

Preparation is not the same as being insulated from sanctions. There's many variables - do the EU get involved in sanctions, do all of ASEAN or just some. Have enough countries begun to build their own sodium ion batteries or still too dependent on Chinese suppliers. Does a US admin use the same dumb tactics as so far or do they build a cohesive tariff and sanction strategy. And fundamentally China will absolutely manage to survive economically for many years even with sanctions but the point of sanctions on an economy that size (same thing as with Russia) is to slow down its gdp growth. It's a long term strategy not one that makes a difference within 2 to 3 years. But will this blockade/invasion be a 3 month operation like China hopes or will it drag out? That is what will define the impact on China's economy. If they take Taiwan no amount of sanctions can unseat them. It's a done deal. China is better insulated than many because of the size of its economy.

I didn't see him say it either, it just makes more sense. And the obvious solution is what? Hold? The EU has more punitive Capital Gains taxes. 19-30%. So it's even possible he's hit capital gains and his tax bracket puts him in the 30% rate. I really do not know.

Orennji

1. So many lofty buzzwords! But forgot to mention that almost all the *existing* revenue comes from capital intensive alcohol retail, low margin cannabis grows and getting lucky selling shares on meme rallies. And there is no indication there is enough demand as a third party "service" provider to the industry, especially since many of the high margin services you list can be done better in-house or by more nimble specialized ancillary companies. 2. Tilray, Aurora and various other LPs already have fully owned GMP-certified facilities up and running for EU export. SNDL is far behind the race in this area. How can sndl become a leader in contract pharma services when they don't even have their own GMP license facility? If being "asset light" is just another word for being a middleman paying for someone else to do it, why is the middleman even necessary at all in this case? 2.5. Can you name one application of "AI" that is making a difference financially for SNDL, right now? 3. Modular grows are not a new idea. In fact, they were the main cultivation system used by the failed LP, Delta 9 Cannabis. There are no real efficiency gains from going this route, and if anything it creates costly redundancies in separate environmental controls and constant overheating. This is why no other crop is grown this way. And again, if other companies already have economies of scale in large greenhouse and outdoor facilities, what is SNDL's comparative advantage in this segment? 4. Where is the evidence of operational improvement in their investments? What have they improved? One example that is publicly listed is Jushi, which couldn't even break $1 million in operating revenue in recent quarters. Literally one of the worst MSOs that will probably be wiped out by the competition even with S3. This looks like a terrible result for a wannabe private equity investor. 5. Why would a pharma company want to partner with SNDL? You still haven't explained this. They have no GMP facilities of their own contract manufacturing, and they obviously have no experience with FDA approved drug trialing. 6. Why does SNDL deserve a $4 billion valuation if it hasn't executed anything, can't grow the existing business organically, and has done a terrible job at all the extracurricular activities they've attempted?

No chance any serious private capital would seed such a project. Then you’re left with EU governments who are already struggling to maintain their decadent welfare states. If they’re the source of capital, this would only end one way. A bankrupt Europe.

SNDL/Sunstream and perhaps Jupiter Fund could partner up and do what they do best - predator lend and secure prime, unfettered accretive assets in CAN-US-EU-AUS-Israel-UK-Germany and beyond. These firms might be going the way of the Dodo in 2026-27, by then SNDL will be a Pharma Grade juggernaut with the largest capacity, throughput, margins, etc reinforcing the "financial flywheel". Bash it, embrace it, I don't give a toss. Do your own research, trade accordingly.

**Samsung** because there is a shortage of RAM and extremely high demand. The momentum will slow once the supply/demand balance out, but they are a solid long-term investment if you hold to scaling your portfolio off of AI. **Welltower** because the US and EU have an ageing population and in the next 30 to 40 years there will be a lot of elderly and pensioners. This is where Welltower will make a lot more money as they provide exposure to elder care through real estate for seniors. **Nu Holdings** because Latin America is massively underbanked and Nu Holdings are accumulating more and more customers into digital banking. It is an ever-growing market. **Royal Caribbean Cruises** because with a large population being in retirement in the next few decades, the leisure industry will likely boom. People may also start retiring earlier due to AI taking away more jobs and leaving people out of work. The leisure industry has a lot of potential. **TMC The Metals Company**, this is early stages and the most risky investment. They specialise in ocean mining and are expected to begin production in 2027. There is a far higher yield of minerals in the ocean than land-based mining and demand for precious metals keep increasing due to the technology boom. Higher yield means more money and less expenses. I've intentionally made these stock different from what most people suggest here as everyone just seems to be repeating what each other says, and I don't disagree with their suggestions, but these ones I offer show potential in other areas. They might not be as flashy and immediate as some big tech stocks, but there is long term potential. YTD Returns Samsung: 74% Welltower: 51.3% Royal Caribbean: 25.6% TMC Metals: 63.3% $10k invested in each at the start of the year would now be $61k.

The FDA allows states individual waivers to import pharmaceuticals, specifically from Canada, so, depending on state-level prices, that's one way... Of course, they could always invest in US production, which would fit their MO as far as foreign operations in the EU work.

TripleSmokedBacon

A lot of people will want to call Schedule III “huge news for cannabis.” It isn’t. At least not for MSOs. Rescheduling does not elevate state cannabis into federal legitimacy. It does the opposite: it exposes how incompatible most state operations are with federal drug law. Schedule III substances are regulated by the DEA, and products are regulated by the FDA for quality, purity, safety, and manufacturing controls. That means prescription-grade products, cGMP, validated processes, traceability, pharmacovigilance, the whole pharma framework. Physicians are not going to prescribe state-market cannabis products. Those products do not meet FDA standards, and most MSO facilities operate in direct contradiction to cGMP and established pharma models. Retrofitting many of them would be harder and more expensive than building compliant greenfield facilities from scratch. Even the “best” MSOs are usually nowhere near EU or Canadian GACP/cGMP expectations. This move does not reward rule-breaking with entry into the federal system. The DEA does not work that way. Pharma does not work that way. Porous market access is not tolerated. What Schedule III really does is set the table for federally legitimate, pharmaceutical-grade cannabis products. That benefits companies that already know how to operate in regulated drug environments. It does not magically legitimize state-licensed volume producers. Next steps are predictable: DEA adopts the policy and publishes the framework. A federally compliant pathway emerges. State markets continue to exist in parallel, but they are not the same thing. Source: I work in this space at a regulatory and policy level. This is not your MSO payday.

Do you think that Europe won't regulate against China the same way they're doing right now to help their car/EV manufacturing?

Highborn_Hellest

Honestly, I find american automakers struggles funny and self inflicted. First, US law said that emission needs to be proportinal to wehicle size. So, they just made "cars" bigger. Side effect is you don't make other territories emissions and outside of US nobody wants your big and cumbersome wehicles. See how Toyota, Audi, etc makes cars for all markets? Somehow they don't struggle that much. Turns out when you innovate and make cars for the entire planet, they can be sold throughout. Same shit with the cybertruck. Now, i don't think it'd be very popular in the EU, but fact of the matter is, it literally can't be sold in the EU because the designers never though of... wait guys pedestrian safety is a thing in the EU. Ford getting fucked chefs kiss for me. Turns out making slop is not a viable long term strategy.

Because it's CCP propaganda. China has never understood what makes people buy something other than price point, and they never will.

He has secured 18 trillion worth of foreign investments in the US. 5. He is planning to do something about Minnesota, which is supposedly a city taken over by Somalians. 6.

By what metric are you using notably less stable and secure? And by those same metrics how are other countries improving in relation to the US? How is the EU magically more stable and secure? Has the war in Europe improved their situation? Has their energy situation improved? Has China opened up their regulatory policies to dramatically encourage outside investment to a point to eclispe the US? Has the EU changed their regulatory environment that strangles any startup unless they manage to get into the US to get financing? Oh man the dollar v euro... It's at levels we haven't seen in... Three years... But yih are right the US is totally doomed now. I'll ask the same question I did originally, what is the comparison of the EU index v the sp500 over the last 2, 5, 10, and 15 years?

Poundcake2RedVelvet

not really, a one year time frame is plenty of data to notice a shift in capital. look at China hoarding gold, look at Japan raising rates, look at the EURO/U$D exchange rate then compare EU inflation (2.4% and dropping) to US inflation rate (3.0% and rising). The US has become notably less stable and secure because of this administration and investments will reflect that moving forward, that's also why US 10 yr treasury won't stay under 4.1% despite the Fed continuing to cut.

dvdmovie1

Definitely no. The automobile industry - with few exceptions - is at best a mediocre investment with a history of bankruptcies a mile long. So many people thought every EV company was the next Tesla in 2020/21 - none of them were, and some of them are already 0's. "all these companies are fighting over who can sell the cheapest car." Yes. "Maybe a safer investment could be Chinese EV battery companies" Battery companies aren't safe and in most cases that I've seen don't have a moat. The EU also is no longer going to require car makers to go 100% EV by 2035, not to mention Ford's 19.5B EV write-off the other day.

And consumption is soft while supply has gone up. I did look at the data.  “Oil market sentiment in August and September 2025 was driven by OPEC+ continuing to increase production, US tariffs doubling on Indian imports of Russian crude, the EU and UK lowering the Russian oil price cap, and mixed global inventory data. Sanctions and tariff uncertainty, plus an overall market oversupply and a weaker demand, are resulting in a bearish market sentiment, as reflected by weaker Brent prices over the last few months.” Source: https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/oil-and-gas/our-insights/oil-and-gas-blog/snapshot-of-global-oil-supply-and-demand

What would make you sell it? Are you only looking at the price?

I know, I am Spanish (although I am not living there). I should have said EU, my apologies. Maybe non-EU members have a very different taxation. EU members have in common that even though taxes are different in every country, taxes are going to be high.
