Thanks, they have 300 mio cash and 600 mio debt. Is that a convertible bond? Any idea how many shares they have to issue and at what price? I will wait for the next quarter update. The price action looks a bit scary. Company is based in Israel so they might face some push backs. When will the legal case be settled, any idea. Maybe they have to pay a big settlement so it sounds a bit risky. Anyway thanks for your time writing about ODD.

If we then ask AI to use this as the stock choice thesis, after some thought it gives us: The thesis you gave points to small, cheap, profitable, cash-generative companies that can reinvest without EBITDA falling behind asset growth; valuation and FCF yield matter more than pure revenue growth.  # 1. ODDITY Tech — ODD **Why it fits:** The strongest “fallen but still profitable” setup. ODD has a market cap around **$691m**, EV around **$523m**, **EV/EBITDA \~4.0**, **EV/FCF \~6.25**, **ROIC \~20.6%**, and the stock is down about **81% over 52 weeks**. That is exactly the kind of valuation-reset + profitability profile the thesis likes.  **10x case:** If the current customer-acquisition-cost problem proves temporary, ODDITY could rerate sharply because 2025 revenue was **$810m**, up **25%**, with **$163m adjusted EBITDA** and **$84m free cash flow**. The big risk is real: management said ad-platform disruption could make Q1 2026 revenue fall about **30% YoY**, so this one depends on CAC normalising.  # 2. Payoneer — PAYO **Why it fits:** PAYO is small enough at about **$1.6bn market cap**, has **EV/FCF \~6.8**, **FCF yield \~12.4%**, net cash, and **ROIC \~22%**; the stock is also down about **33% over 52 weeks**.  **10x case:** It is a profitable cross-border payments platform in a huge B2B digitisation market. Q1 2026 showed **11% revenue ex-interest growth**, **44% B2B volume growth**, and management raised 2026 guidance to **$1.1bn–$1.14bn revenue** and **$285m–$295m adjusted EBITDA**.  # 3. dLocal — DLO **Why it fits:** DLO has a market cap around **$3.4bn**, **EV/FCF \~6.3**, **FCF yield \~12.2%**, **ROIC \~22.4%**, low debt relative to cash flow, and very high insider ownership.  **10x case:** Emerging-market payments still have a long runway, and Q1 2026 was strong operationally: **TPV +73%**, **revenue +55%**, and **gross profit +40% YoY**. The caution is margin pressure: reported net income fell, although management attributes part of that to a one-off tax adjustment.  # 4. StoneCo — STNE **Why it fits:** This is the cheapest on raw numbers: about **$2.5bn market cap**, **P/FCF \~3.8**, **EV/EBITDA \~2.7**, **EV/FCF \~5.6**, **ROIC \~31%**, and **FCF yield \~26%**. The stock is down about **24% over 52 weeks**, which also fits the “not already loved” part of the thesis.  **10x case:** If Brazil SME payments/financial services continue compounding and the market regains confidence, the valuation has massive rerating potential. The 1Q26 release showed adjusted EPS up **15.4% YoY**, helped by aggressive buybacks; the risk is that growth/margins are not yet cleanly accelerating.  # 5. GigaCloud Technology — GCT **Why it fits:** GCT has a market cap around **$1.37bn**, **PE \~9.4**, **EV/FCF \~9.9**, **FCF yield \~10.9%**, and **ROIC \~23%**.  **10x case:** It is building a B2B marketplace/logistics platform for large-parcel goods, with Q1 2026 revenue up **32.2%**, adjusted EBITDA up **37.3%**, active buyers up **25.2%**, and 3P-seller GMV up **23.7%**. The caveat is entry price: unlike the others, the stock is up nearly **98% over 52 weeks**, so it is less “near the lows” than the thesis ideally wants.  My ranked shortlist would be: **ODD, PAYO, DLO, STNE, GCT**. The first four fit the “cheap, profitable, cash-generative, unloved” thesis more cleanly; GCT has perhaps the clearest profitable growth engine, but the current price action is less thesis-perfect. \----- ChatGPT is not me; neither of us give financial advice.

What competitive space are we talking about here? WeRide's markets are not homogenous. If you’re implicitly treating WRD like a single-line robotaxi operator. It isn’t. WeRide is a multi-domain autonomy platform with 3 very different revenue qualities: Hardware-led (robotaxi, robobus, robovan, robosweeper), Licensing / software (ADAS, autonomy stack), Services and operations. So the current P/S is anchored on a front-loaded revenue mix, not steady-state economics. You’re valuing a transition phase as if it’s the end state. The relevant question is: What does P/S look like when software share increases and utilization stabilizes? Sure deep pockets help. But it assumes all capital is equally useful. It isn’t. Example: Waymo has deep pockets, but scaling is constrained by ODD, cost, and ops. Tesla has capital, but is still unresolved on full autonomy deployment. I think the better question is: Who converts deployments into repeatable, contracted revenue fastest? I believe WeRide is doing a very good job here.

ODD seems to have dodged a bullet. It got a huge pump on what I thought was a nothing story. The headline was a $200 million buyback, but it was really just an adjustment of the existing $150 million buyback authorization. Then during the day and since both ELF and ULTA have crashed. ODD was unmoved.

Oddity Tech (ODD) said Thursday the board approved a plan to buy back up to $200 million of the company's Class A shares. The buyback plan replaces Oddity Tech's previously announced $150 million repurchase program and expires on March 31, 2029, the company said. This would equal about 30% of the current market cap.

A few thoughts on some holdings I've mentioned on here before.... ODD. So I sold my shares and used a small portion to buy Jan 2027 OTM calls. The stock is priced for failure and if management salvages anything in the next few quarters, there's upside. Wouldn't rule out an acquisition bid in the interim. If I'm wrong, I lose a few more bucks. However, I think the company will rightly trade at a low multiple for awhile. If they're at this much risk from an algo change, it's warranted. If it's really promising come next year I can always act on a few of my options to buy some shares. UFPT. One of my longest holdings and personal favorite companies. However, their organic growth has dramatically declined and they're becoming more and more dependent on acquisition. Not that that is bad, it just changes the nature of the company. 15x EBITDA is kinda a standard for that type of company and that's right where the company is trading. So, I'm not sure how much upside there is left. That's what the market has been reflecting since earnings. I'm still holding as of now, but I might consider trimming/selling for some options that appear to offer better returns. ABX. Man, I can't wait for earnings here. MIAX. Absolutely destroyed earnings last week, but got very little response. I think it's too new to get momentum, but I added a few more shares around $40 last week. It's not often a new stock exchange gets listed.

Flatbed trucking rates going absolutely nuts, above COVID levels, and particularly in the Midwest. LTL still high, but not seeing the same spike. Possibly because of increasing equipment sales. Still sorting out ODD. It's trading for cash on hand right now, but if an algo change at Instagram can hurt business this much...it's questionable. Watching to see what the company does. They can buy back 12% of the company with their current buyback authorization. I expect to see them do it, plus some insider buys if they have any confidence in fixing this.

I'm having a harder time pinning down an exact fair value. However, there's a very legitimate case to be made they do 25-30% growth annually over the next 2-3 years. So 25% for three years gives me $734 million in revenue. This is about inline with consensus. I'd also be banking on some multiple expansion since they're the only player large enough to meet much of the demand. 7-8x sales for a moaty company growing at obscene rates? That would be a $5 billion market cap or 2.5x in three years. Inflection to cash flow positive helps this case, and that should happen this year. Slightly bullish numbers. I'm not convinced enough to make it a huge position like ABX or ODD, but happy to put a standard starter on it, with the possibility of adding opportunistically.

Thought I had robbed a bank with $39 ODD. Agree with the energy thesis, if by energy you mean electricity. Agree that sometimes left for dead sectors can have zero logical reason to rally on a given date, then months later we look back and say it was obvious. Today, there seems to be glut potential for fossil energy with everyone including us pumping, with the rest of the world ignoring our administration’s weirdness, with potential surrender deal in Ukraine. But as I say, often those logical outlooks come completely undone. Sometimes technical charts matter more than fundamentals. I’m still accumulating solar names even 2025 wasn’t their turn. Biotech seems like an obvious good prospect. Same with M&A stuff. Agree on metals and mining. Can’t believe how long and brutal it has been for some chemicals. You’re the axe on trucking, I take your word for what you’re saying.

As I read the suggestions of great stocks for 2026 I'm surprised by one thing: most of the suggestions are the biggest winners from last year. NBIS, RKLB, SMR..... So the consensus seems to be last year's winners will win big again. However, not a lot of gold related names in there which is interesting, and possibly telling. I'll throw out a few: ODD. Very few people are talking about the amount of stimulus written into the OBBB. We're probably looking at the highest tax refunds in awhile and people are going to spend that cash. Consumer names are beaten down by the recession talk but we're seeing above average Christmas shopping levels. Trucking. Huge amounts of capacity have come off the road. Tender rejections are the highest in years. Any kind of demand is going to spike rates. Biotech I own TWST and CRMD. Falling rates are generally good for biotech. Hopefully next year will provide some clarity on healthcare too.

r/stocksSee Comment

Yeah, I think that’s a much closer framing than the earlier “crutch vs. purity” takes. Both systems do have safety nets, and both use them as fallback layers when the autonomy stack loses confidence. But there’s still an important distinction in where the safety net lives and what it implies. Waymo’s fallback is inside the autonomy stack itself (map validation + remote ops → conservative behavior). Tesla’s fallback is outside the autonomy stack (human takeover → L2/L3 handoff). So functionally, yeah, both have guardrails. But architecturally, the difference is. Waymo is L4 today (no human fallback within its ODD). Tesla is L2/L2+ today (human fallback everywhere). And that’s where the comparison matters. Waymo’s safety net = machine redundancy. Tesla’s safety net = human supervision. Both companies claim the end goal is to remove their respective nets and reach generalized autonomy. There’s no disagreement there. Where the debate still exists is if they do converge on similar architectures. Or do they continue to scale along different priorities? But I agree with you on the core point. Neither company intends the current safety layer to be permanent. Both are using it as scaffolding to gather data and validate the stack. So yes, long-term ambition is the same: remove the safety net → reach true L4/L5. The disagreement is about which path gets there faster, safer, or at all, not whether they’re playing the same game fundamentally.

Now that u/_hiddenscout is back, backlog of information to dump.... Trucking tender rejections are over 10%, the highest in years. That's really good for truckers. If we get a little demand juice as tax refunds roll in, trucking stocks are primed. HTLD calls. TWST has become my new obsession. I think AI will dramatically speed drug discovery (ODD has been doing this with cosmetics) leading to a huge surge in demand for synthetic DNA for testing. Also, they have a stake in a company that uses DNA for data storage which is a really interesting play on data centers down the road. No position yet.

I get the analogy, but it kinda falls apart because Tesla isn’t lifting weights here, they’re rewriting the rulebook on how autonomy even works. Waymo/Cruise-style demos are basically lifting a very specific 10-pound dumbbell: mapped route, limited conditions, curated ODD. Tesla’s trying to build the general-purpose strength to lift any weight in any gym. Different sport entirely. And yeah, in the real world most companies show incremental progress. Totally fair point. But Tesla’s approach isn’t incremental by design, they aren’t building the “highway only mode,” then the “city only mode,” then the “left turns after 3pm” mode. They’re training one brain to handle the whole thing. That’s why a single demo doesn’t tell you much about whether that brain is actually generalizing or just memorizing a loop. If Tesla trotted out a single autonomous ride tomorrow, people would (rightly) say: “Cool, now do it at night. Now in the rain. Now with construction. Now in Boston. Now during a solar eclipse.” A one-off demo doesn’t validate the thing they’re trying to build. None of this means Tesla is guaranteed to nail it, obviously. But pretending a flashy PR run is some magic indicator of technological maturity is rough logic. Waymo did their demos a decade ago and still can’t scale outside tightly groomed ODDs. Cruise aced demos then faceplanted in real deployment. If Tesla’s gamble pays off, it’ll look like “nothing nothing nothing… BAM, widespread rollout.” If it doesn’t, sure, they’ll have overreached. But holding them to the demo standard of systems built on a completely different architecture is just comparing apples to orbital rockets.

You’re acting like “just do L3 on highways” is some trivial checkbox, but that’s exactly the philosophical split here. An L3 system isn’t just “drive well on highways and beep when the exit’s coming.” It’s a frozen, auditable, legally bounded mode with a defined ODD and deterministic behavior. Tesla’s whole stack is built around continuous learning and probabilistic outputs which is great for generalization, but a nightmare for certifying something that regulators can treat like a calculator. And yeah, of course Tesla could build a separate, hand-tuned, map-heavy, geofenced highway-only mode. They just don’t want to maintain two code paths and split their effort the way Mercedes and Waymo do. You can call that stupid or over-ambitious, but pretending that L3 certification magically falls out of a general neural net once it “works well enough” is just not how any of this works. Also, you’re oversimplifying the pull-over scenario. L3 requires safe fallback in all conditions within its ODD, not “hope the shoulder is free.” That means redundancy, failover compute, and predictable planning, which again is easier when your system is built around constraints and crisp rules instead of a giant end-to-end policy. You don’t have to like Tesla’s approach, totally fair if you think they should do the Mercedes route instead, but acting like the only reason they’re not L3 is “lol the tech sucks” is just a Reddit fantasy. Different architecture, different goal, different certification path.

You’re kinda missing what I’m actually saying. Nobody is claiming Tesla is being held back by regulators. The whole point is Tesla isn’t aiming at the same milestone Mercedes was, so of course they’re still in L2, their tech isn’t designed to be “frozen and certified” in a narrow box. And yes, the SAE levels existed before the regs, but regulators still use them as the framework. L3 isn’t just “driver can look away,” it’s the manufacturer legally takes responsibility within a strictly defined ODD. Tesla’s system isn’t built around that concept at all. It’s built to expand, not to lock itself into a tiny, guaranteed envelope. Like, if Tesla wanted a geofenced 40 mph traffic jam mode tomorrow, they could probably hack one together. But they’d rather push a general vision model that works basically everywhere. That comes with more growing pains, for sure, but it’s also the only path that scales beyond luxury-car demos. And yeah, today FSD is L2, no argument there. Everyone sees that. The debate isn’t “what level is Tesla right now,” it’s why they’re not chasing the incremental level certifications like Mercedes. Different strategy, different end goal. We can absolutely revisit it when it changes, but acting like the only reason it’s L2 is because the tech “failed to reach L3” kinda ignores that L3 requires a whole different design philosophy than what Tesla’s even trying to build.

I liquidated all of my $ODD shares this morning at $45 for a 21.6% short term realized gain.
