Toasted PB&B is so legendary that the best musician in history loved it
MSTR is trading at 1.07 PB. Why pay a 7% premium when you can just buy Bitcoin yourself? I genuinely don’t understand why people buy this stock
I'm built different. I was always destined to be poor. I love ramen, PB&J, corn dogs. all of it. But some of you gentlemen may not survive.
You are probably not wrong. Just not right enough. If we're talking pure alpha in the metabolic disease game, let's zoom east to Hong Kong where the real fireworks are popping off. I'm eyeing Innogen-B (02591.HK) and PegBio (02565.HK) as straight-up superior moonshots right now, all laser-focused on the GLP-1 revolution that's exploding in Asia's massive diabetes and obesity market. These aren't diluted plays like UNH's insurance sprawl or HOOD's trading volatility; they're razor-sharp biotechs riding China's 1.4 billion-person wave, with approvals incoming and valuations that make US counterparts look like overpriced lattes. Let me break down why swapping some of that bag for these HK gems could 5x your portfolio by 2028—pure fire, no fluff. First off, the macro setup in Hong Kong biotech is straight dominance mode. While the US Nasdaq biotech index is grinding up a measly 20% this year, Hong Kong's Hang Seng Biotech Index has ripped 80%+, outrunning even AI hype. Why? Beijing's pumping state cash into "Made in China 2025" for pharma independence, with 14 fresh listings already raising over HK$18 billion in 2025—quadrupling last year's haul—and 36 more queued up. Valuations? HK biotechs trade at 8-10x forward sales on average, versus 18x+ for US peers, giving you dirt-cheap entry into 30%+ CAGR growth as Asia's diabetes epidemic (hello, 140 million cases and counting) meets ultra-long-acting GLP-1s that crush Ozempic's dosing hassle. No DOJ probes or Medicare cuts here—just streamlined NMPA nods and export pipelines to Southeast Asia. HIMS is cute with its telehealth subs, but it's a US middleman facing Amazon's boot; these HK plays own the IP and manufacturing in the world's fastest-scaling market. Take Innogen-B: This beast just exploded 296% on debut in August, opening at HK$72 after pricing at HK$18.68, and it's still humming around HK$50-60 with HK$683 million fresh in the tank from an IPO oversubscribed 5,365 times—HK$370 billion in bids from 260k investors, second-hottest in Hong Kong this year. Their crown jewel, Efsubaglutide Alfa (branded Diabegone), is Asia's first homegrown humanized long-acting GLP-1 agonist, already greenlit for type 2 diabetes in China and barreling through late-stage trials for obesity and MASH (that fatty liver goldmine worth $30 billion globally). Early data? 7% weight drop in four weeks, with monthly dosing that laps weekly shots—perfect for compliance in a market where 80% of patients ghost treatments. They're deploying IPO cash for Phase III global pushes, commercial ramps, and CNS add-ons, turning red ink (losses narrowed to HK$175 million last year) into black by mid-2026. Compared to HIMS' 50x P/E bloat and GLP-1 supply glut risks, Innogen's at <5x sales with zero revenue yet—pure asymmetry. Bears whine about Eli Lilly/Novo competition, but Innogen's local pricing edge (half the cost) and China-first moat mean they snag 10-15% market share easy, printing HK$10 billion revenue by 2030. UNH? It's a sleepy dividend cow at 13x earnings, dodging cyber headaches but capped at 8-10% growth; Innogen's your uncapped rocket to HK$300/share. Then PegBio seals the deal as the stealth assassin. Listed earlier this year at HK$15.60, raising HK$301 million for a HK$6 billion val, it dipped to HK$10 on open but clawed back to HK$15+ on pipeline heat—up 7% monthly despite broader volatility. Their lead, PB-119, is another long-acting GLP-1 banger for diabetes and obesity, with NMPA acceptance last year and marketing greenlight eyed for Q1 2026. Preclinicals on PB-2301 (GLP-1/GIP dual) and PB-2309 (triple agonist) target NASH and rare endocrines, diversifying beyond HIMS' one-trick pony. R&D burn was HK$280 million in 2022, tapering to HK$76 million YTD as trials wrap, with cash at HK$27 million pre-IPO now beefed for launch and expansions. Losses ticked up slightly to HK$283 million last year on zero revenue, but that's biotech math—post-approval, ARPU from chronic scripts hits HK$500/year per patient in a 500 million obese Asian pool. Versus HOOD's cyclical 70% transaction reliance (hello, 35% revenue crater in '22), PegBio's recurring revenue moat is ironclad, with PEGylation tech for custom peptides adding service upside. Analysts are mum on ratings yet, but the sector tailwind screams Buy; at 4x projected sales, it's a steal next to UNH's regulatory quicksand (DOJ antitrust, 85% loss ratios). PegBio could 4x to HK$60 by 2027 if PB-119 captures 5% China share, while HOOD prays for bull markets. Bottom line, apes: HIMS/HOOD/UNH are fine for balanced bags, but Innogen and PegBio are the asymmetric edges—cheaper entries, explosive China growth (20% GDP healthcare slice by 2030), and GLP-1 purity without US baggage. HK's policy rocket fuel means 50-100% pops on approvals alone, while US names grind through comps and comps. I'm allocating 20% here; dips under HK$45 for Innogen and HK$12 for PegBio are no-brainers. DYOR, markets flip fast, but this is where the smart money's flowing east. Who's jumping in? 🚀🇭🇰 #HKBiotech #GLP1Bets

Do you watch the GTC events or listen to the conference calls? They can’t make chips fast enough to keep up with demand. And every 12 months there are new data center chips that LOWER the cost to run AI workloads compared to predecessors, such that it’s more cost effective for all the hyper scalers to upgrade. AI is now like electricity and internet. We, as humans, will never consume less than the amount we’re consuming right now. Let’s say current Blackwell chips can do all to all comms at 1 TB/s. Well, that’ll eventually be 10 TB/s, then 100 TB/s, then PB/s. New frontier models are being worked on every day that are being designed around these predicted memory bandwidth increases. So… no, there isn’t really a ceiling, we’re only at the infancy of the AI age. Think of NVDA @ $200 like Bitcoin at $100 so many years ago.
Wow really They have some snacks that are very good, not all sure But their PB cup and their chili lime chips are excellent

It's funny you're being downvoted despite being 100% correct. Its a company with literally no product to buy, no product available for *at least* several more years, ~100 employees, a PB **36**, and a market cap over $25b. Totally legit, I can see why it's up *1,600%* over the past year. But don't you dare compare this market to the Dotcom Bubble!
Ok guys had to come back cause why tf am i so bad at this shit. Despite doing hours of analysis often on tickers, cash flow, PE, PB, Forward PE, investment sentiment no way i am getting outperformed by a 15 year old buying pre-revenue company that might make some money 5 years from now. Funnily i just know the moment i buy OKLO it will dump below 100. This is my sign to just end myself

> My point (as I’ve stated in the original post and my first reply) is that we haven’t had a dollar figure until now. And the figure is very, very underwhelming. But hey, hype is hype or something. >It’s okay, you can admit they’re on the right tracks dude Their board has been saying that for over 5 years. Every time they become close to profitable or profitable they bait and switch investors. They physically cannot meet WAM-V demands with their current scale, therefore they need more cash to build out their manufacturing. They do not have that cash because they have been unprofitable forever. The PB3 is a massive money sink that nobody actually wants. Green-energy credits are dead, so the only play left with OPTT is defense adjacent which they simply don't have the scale to meet.

doesn't sound like that: "2) CREAL PB This is an asset management service for individual investors. It targets actual real estate for long-term management (at least 5 years). Its major features include that it utilizes the AI developed by the Company to efficiently discover excellent properties from the real estate market (mainly pre-owned sub-divided residences in the metropolitan Tokyo area). Gross profit is calculated as net sales × profit margin." https://www.fisco.co.jp/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/FISCO/creal20240206_e.pdf granted PB is their smallest division, but their biggest division also mentions residences specifically separate from hotels; that could be condos, but condos are affected by the issue too.
They have 450 PB of 4k video data stored in their cloud by their users. The video data is very unique and generally hard to come by. They announced an AI licensing program where users can opt in. Early beta in the US has reported a high rate of users opting in. 5 PB of video data is roughly 125,000 hours. This can be worth $5-40mm depending on type of data (the range is wide because certain companies want very specific or hard to get videos, think extreme sports, POV, etc are worth more than say a family reunion video). For a company whose market cap is $300mm, the above potential revenue can be astronomical (estimated revenue increase could very well be beyond the market cap of the company). Since there’s been reasonable indication that users are willing to opt in, the risk now on the table is whether or not GPRO will manage the licensing deals to AI companies correctly. Seems like a good risk reward to me.
MG replacing PB would be yuuuuuuge for Canna Stocks. And I have no problem with that.
From Mr Shiu's $50 per month Patreon https://www.patreon.com/mrshiu?utm_campaign=creatorshare_fan Here's the English translation of the summarized research report on Tempus AI (NASDAQ: TEM), originally published in Chinese: --- 💰【Mr. Xiao's Investment Report】💰 Tempus AI (TEM) Deep Dive Report – Summary (May 2) Tempus AI (NASDAQ: TEM) is a technology company using artificial intelligence (AI) to process large-scale clinical and molecular data to advance precision medicine. This report analyzes the company’s core business, recent financial performance, competitive landscape, growth strategies, and potential risks — with a particular focus on short-term earnings expectations and market outlook to guide investors. The report is based on public data, including the latest operating figures, financial guidance, and analysts’ insights. --- 1. Company Overview and Core Business Founded in 2015 by tech entrepreneur Eric Lefkofsky, Tempus AI aims to apply AI practically in healthcare to improve patient care. The company's core strength lies in its large proprietary multimodal data platform (including genomic, clinical, and imaging data) and a system that makes this data actionable. Business Model: Two main segments: Genomics Services: Offers comprehensive genomic sequencing services (e.g., Tempus xT, xF) mainly used in oncology to help doctors understand molecular characteristics of cancer and tailor personalized treatment plans. Data and Services: Licenses de-identified multimodal datasets to life science companies (pharma, biotech) to support drug development, clinical trials, and market analysis — this is one of the fastest-growing segments. Data Assets: One of the largest clinical and molecular databases in the industry — over 40 million research records and more than 300 petabytes (PB) of data. This forms the foundation for AI model training and services, creating a strong competitive moat. Market Position: Connected with ~65% of U.S. academic medical centers. Over 50% of U.S. oncologists use its services. Collaborations with 95% of top oncology pharma companies. Recent Developments: IPO completed in June 2024 (NASDAQ). Acquired Ambry Genetics (hereditary disease testing) and Deep 6 AI (AI clinical trial recruitment). Strategic partnerships with Illumina, BioNTech, AstraZeneca, and others. --- 2. Financial Performance and Operating Metrics Tempus AI has demonstrated strong revenue growth and improving profitability. Revenue Analysis: FY2024: Total revenue of $693.4 million, up 30.4% YoY. Genomics revenue: $451.7M (+24.4%) Data & services revenue: $241.6M (+43.2%) Q4 2024: Revenue of $200.7M, up 35.8% YoY. Data & services now account for ~35% of revenue. Profitability: Gross margin: 54.9% in 2024 (up from 53.8% in 2023) Data & services margin: 71.5% Net loss: GAAP net loss of $705.8M in 2024 (mainly due to IPO-related stock-based compensation of ~$548M) Adjusted EBITDA: -$104.7M in 2024, improved from -$154.2M in 2023 Q4 Adjusted EBITDA loss narrowed to -$7.8M Key Operating Metrics (as of end-2024): Net revenue retention (NRR) for data & services: 140% Total contract value (TCV): $940M 2025 Guidance (from company): Full-year revenue expected to be $1.24B (up 79%, including Ambry) Adjusted EBITDA expected to reach $5M (first full-year positive EBITDA) --- 3. Industry Outlook & Competitive Landscape Tempus AI is positioned at the intersection of precision medicine and AI in healthcare — both fast-growing fields. Market Opportunity: Global precision medicine market expected to grow at a double-digit CAGR. AI in healthcare projected to grow at a CAGR of 49.1%. Genomics market growth supports Tempus’s core business momentum. Main Competitors: Genomics diagnostics: Foundation Medicine (Roche), Guardant Health, Caris Life Sciences. Healthcare data/RWE: Flatiron Health (Roche), ConcertAI, IQVIA. Data analytics platforms: Palantir, DNAnexus. Tempus Competitive Advantages: Data moat: Large-scale, high-quality, and proprietary multimodal database. Integrated platform: End-to-end solution — diagnostics → data → AI analysis → clinical application. Advanced AI capabilities: Proprietary algorithms embedded throughout the workflow. Robust ecosystem: Strong partnerships with hospitals, physicians, and pharma companies. --- 4. Short-Term Outlook & Analyst Views There is strong market anticipation for Q1 2025 earnings. Q1 2025 Consensus Estimates: Revenue: ~$248M EPS: ~$-0.44 (range: -0.26 to -0.47) Key focus areas: Contribution from Ambry acquisition, core business momentum, progress toward profitability. Analyst Ratings & Price Targets: Overall sentiment: Positive — majority rate as “Buy” or “Hold”. Zacks ABR (Average Broker Rating): 2.13 (Buy zone, where 1 = Strong Buy, 5 = Strong Sell) 12-month price target range: $61–$63 average Highest estimate: $77.70 Lowest: ~$48 Key Takeaways: Bullish factors: Huge market potential, integrated model, data moat, strong revenue growth, expected profitability inflection in 2025. Concerns: High valuation, lack of GAAP profitability, fierce competition, integration risks. --- 5. Investment Risk Considerations Profitability risk: Adjusted EBITDA may turn positive, but GAAP profitability remains uncertain. Valuation risk: Elevated valuation increases sensitivity to earnings and sentiment. Competitive pressure: Faces strong rivals with deep pockets or advanced tech. Data privacy & regulatory: Stringent HIPAA and similar regulations pose ongoing compliance risks. Execution & integration: Risk from integrating Ambry, Deep 6 AI, and entering new therapeutic areas. Macroeconomic & policy risks: Healthcare policy changes and economic shifts could affect growth. --- 6. Conclusion & Investment Recommendation Tempus AI, with its unique position in AI-driven precision medicine, vast data assets, and strong growth trajectory, presents an attractive long-term investment theme. The company is transitioning from high-growth to improving profitability and is expected to hit a key EBITDA inflection point in 2025. However, investors should be mindful of challenges
Its not a PE stock, it's a forward PB one. This is coming from someone with a decent position in SK Hynix.
Went for a 10k despite pollen allergy, but didn't make PB, regretted.
>They are done with this current administration and know it. The WAM-V can actually save their asses. But yes, the green-energy cuts have killed the PB3's chances. Blah blah Naval grad school, woopidy doo. I'm an oceanographer nerd and that thing is screaming "niche use case". It does have use, data-centers for individual sensors (such as AUVs) are cool and have use. They are just expensive as fuck sitting ducks in a war scenario; purely defensive. Anything wave can do, solar or wind can do better. If there are waves, there is wind. That is simply how physics work.
Guys, I know you’re looking for the same trading style as PB Trading. I can really recommend this group — they do live sessions every day and real live trading. Great guys; they trained at PB Trading and follow the exact same approach 100%.” https://whop.com/a-d-trading?a=marcobuehler07
It’s not a bag anymore. They have a PB ratio of 2.5, excluding book value, the PE would be 20 and decreasing. They have expanded into other more durable markets. At this point, GameStop is just a good investment

I've been looking for equities in the JP market especially semi, staffing agency, IT, and entertainment sectors as well as the trading houses Warren Buffett loves. JP companies tend to have way more cash and way less debt than US ones probably due to cultural reasons to the point that they seem very stingy with cash and would rather hoard that cash pile than return it to shareholders. This should be gradually improved in the coming years as Tokyo Exchange is pushing those firms with ridiculously low PB ratio. With the cash pile removed you can really see many companies have high ROIC, so you need to find those with good ROIC and hope that one day that cash pile is returned to shareholders. Semi firms such as Lasertec, Tokyo Electron, and Screen Holdings have strong fundamentals but are suppressed due to recent geopolitical uncertainties, so even tho the AI boom is still there they dont seem to benefit much from it. If semi is cyclical it looks like they are in the trough right now Staffing agency industry is an interesting one because as the whole population declines, companies turn to staffing agency for skilled laborers, advertisement, and digital transformation of hiring process/management. On the other hand the matching platforms and staffing agencies also have to compete with each other for new users/talent so this sector will get more and more competitive. For example Artner deploys IT and mechanical engineers and JAC Recuitment does employment consulting for JP firms all over the globe. Fun fact both Glassdoor and Indeed are owned by Recruit Holdings which is based in Japan IT wise there has been a demand to "digitize" Japanese companies and those that provide softwares or Salesforce service have been benefiting from this trend. Then there is Trend Micro whose top line is basically flat over the years. I still remember buying their antivirus many years ago. And there is NCD that digitalizes Japanese bicycle parking lots. Then the entertainment sector as Japan exports a lot of games and consoles. Nintendo for one I think a lot of folks hold its shares. Some other potentially good ones include Bandai Namco and Sanrio, tho Sanrio just had a good run and the PE is just too high at this point Finally the trading houses - they have business around the globe, which is important for JP firms as their domestic market is doomed to shrink with their population. However they are so huge that they cannot generate much profit from their large load of assets. For many companies when you remove the excess cash their ROIC looks good, but these trading houses has little cash to begin with, so their ROIC is in the lower single digits, which is a big red flag for me. If you are here for their stable cash flow, look for those with PE < 10 and high FCF yield. For example Sumitomo looks good while Marubeni and Itochu look expenseive Tl;dr semis are beaten down, staffing agencies are getting competitive, some are profiting from digital transformation (DX), entertainment firms with global exposure look good, and Sumitomo over other trading houses

You need some PB with that jelly sandwich?
Eh, if you’re active in the market and can make stable gains, there’s an argument to be had that it’s not about timing the market but more so reading indicators of a PB or step down. Removing your money from the market and loading up a specific set window while keeping long term holdings under monitoring can provide high returns, possibly even double annual returns from simple things like SPYG once you’re good enough to track trends.
Ok thanks. When I asked my PB at citi they offered me $10mm. A little rich for me. Was thinking $100k
ROOT targets safe drivers which allows them to reduce their loss ratios removing the risk in the underwriting. Thats a specific niche, but ROOT also goes all around for standard policies as well. Due to this niche, it allows ROOT to have better loss ratios, similarly to focus on specialty insurers. theres nothing wrong with comparing insurers in the same field especially where are minimal P&C insurers to choose from. the insuretechs that you have mentioned aren't even profitable, and thus have negative PEGs. evaluating an insurer based on P/B and ignoring NI, is pretty ignorant. if ROOT makes their entire book in less than 4 years, why would you continue to evaluate the name based on PB? RYAN does have a negative tangible 4B net equity.
You can buy etfs by reading a few paragraphs on it but you need to read a few sec filings to make an educated stock purchase. But honestly I recomend stock picking. You can just read books like the intelligent investor and one up on wallstreet in like a mounth. Then after that read like 2 valueinvestorclub articles on stocks of interest. Read a few sec filings. Check free float, short float, make sure the balance sheet is not too big, identify moats, identify customer base, identify is their business model durable against technological advancement, only buy stocks at reasonable ratios like PE under 30, PB preferably under 3 depending on the industry, PEG under 2, P/FCF depending on the industry. Then once you have done that to most of the companies in one industry you may be able to make a good stock pick. Then do thar for like 4-10 diffrent industries and you should have a good stock portfolio.
It’s not “across all stocks.” The chart is Goldman’s prime‑brokerage view of hedge‑fund clients and shows the 20‑day change in their gross exposure (longs + shorts). That’s a slice of the market, not every investor or ticker. Goldman can break it down by sector for clients, but that granularity isn’t generally public. If you want a public proxy, look at sector ETFs and breadth stats - equal‑weight vs cap‑weight, % of stocks above their 50/200‑day, and flows. Why you might not see red the last few weeks: degrossing isn’t the same as “prices must fall.” Funds can cut both longs and shorts, they can reduce via futures or options rather than single names, and other buyers can step in at the same time. Indexes can also rise on narrow leadership while the median stock is flat to soft. The chart measures how quickly hedge funds reduced risk, not whether every stock went down. The “catch” is that it’s a positioning signal from one PB book - useful for timing, but not a market‑wide price forecast or sector tape for the last 3–4 weeks.
I’m regarded so my moves will involve PB&J and licking the short bus windows… I wish someone would take this extra chromosome
Can you provide sources that justify the assumption "1% of the 450PB gets licensed at $1 per usable minute"? I'm not sure you can just assume this to be the case.
Thank you :) And…to answer your question: keep in mind, AI video isn’t a replacement for real footage especially not at scale or in regulated, legal, or training environments. You still need verified, labeled, real-world video for AI model training, simulations, AR/VR, robotics, and more. GoPro has 450PB+ of opt-in, timestamped, GPS-tagged POV video , no one else has that. AI makes real-world data more valuable, not obsolete. Just like Getty and Shutterstock are licensing to OpenAI and Adobe, GoPro’s archive could be the next massive licensing play hiding in plain sight. Bottom line, how are these complex ai models trained in the first place? Ask yourself that.
Great questions! here’s how I see it: 1/ fair question. GoPro hasn’t broken this down by region, but a few things we can infer: Historically, North America makes up ~45–50% of GoPro’s revenue — so you can estimate a ballpark of 200–225PB of footage tied to U.S. users. Even if only a fraction of that comes from active subscribers willing to monetize, you're still talking dozens of petabytes of potential opt-in training data. This is likely a pilot: starting with U.S. subscribers lets them test licensing, compliance, and rev share. If successful, they'll likely expand globally 2. Is the footage even useful? Surprisingly, yes. AI firms need: •Unscripted real-world motion (for robotics, simulation, drone nav) •Dynamic outdoor environments (weather, terrain, movement, humans) •POV and 3rd-person action data (sports, biking, skiing, hiking, etc.) GoPro content is diverse, noisy, and naturally labeled via GPS/metadata/timestamps. that’s incredibly useful for training generalizable models, especially in AR/VR, robotics, drone AI, autonomous movement, and even synthetic video generation. 3. Will users opt in? Maybe not all, but they don’t need everyone. GoPro users tend to be prosumers, not casual TikTokers, they're more likely to monetize footage they already value If even 1–3% of users opt in, that could still mean millions of minutes of fresh, legally usable training data It’s like how YouTube didn’t need every user to monetize, just a small % made a big revenue impact. Hope that helps :)
On paper it sounds really good but... Currently only U.S subscribers can monetize their GoPro cloud-based video. So, how much of that 450PB was actually generated by U.S. subscribers? How much of that is *really* useful for AI training and modeling? And how many people are actually willing to share their content? I really love this company and own their products, but I do have my doubts. Anyway, I'll keep an eye.
Been a BRK.B bagholder over 15 years, this is fine. Been a rough year for insurance businesses, which is a big part of Berkshire. Tariff shit show also didn’t help, long term they will be fine. PB ratio is 1.53, if the price drops any further they will resume buybacks.
CPB PB&J all the same what’s the problem
yeah, you just remove the part of GDP calculation that includes imports.

>I believe this is an overlooked sector that has incredible room for growth. Over 70% of the Earth is ocean, and Ocean Power Technologies is a leading company for producing and storing energy in the ocean. Immediate huge jump that shows lack of background research but trying to hype. The PB3 system is depth-rated to 3,000 m and the average ocean depth is > 3,500 m. Let's just put the brakes on a little here, okay? >-PB3 PowerBuoy generates power for use independent of the power grid in offshore locations. The PowerBuoy can act as an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) which constantly recharges itself by harvesting energy from the waves. >According to their website, “The PowerBuoy® 2.0 Wind, Wave and Solar (PB 2.0) is a fully autonomous maritime platform. Powered by solar and wind energy, it provides persistent, renewable power with real-time 24×7 communications. Equipped with high-capacity energy storage, flexible payloads, remote controls and diagnostics, it is the ideal solution for maritime domain awareness, port security, offshore operations and environmental monitoring.” The PB3 is the model they are selling now, the PB2 is kind of irrelevant so that's a red flag that there isn't more information on it (to me). Once again, not special to have different sensors and power-options on a buoy. The recharging via wave-action is pretty cool and unique but it requires a tether to the sea-floor that limits the areas it can be deployed in. >At over 47 feet tall, the Power Buoy is capable of withstanding hurricanes as well as storing up to 88 kWh of energy. This beast creates energy using solar, wind, and wave harnessing technology. The energy can be used to transmit 5G signals and charge drones/underwater vehicles, as well as provide a clean energy source for remote locations. So this is a huge, expensive target that is not good for defense-applications in an area where there are potential enemy drones? So much for military applications abroad for the PB3. >Why the WAM-V is impressive >Can be equipped with a UAV or ROV for mine inspection and disposal. >Ehanced submarine detection and seabed monitoring >Can execute a 360-degree turn within its own length. (The best on-track performance in its class.) >Maintains operational capability during rough seas >Can be prepared for operation in a matter of hours. >Easy to transport and store, with one fitting in a pickup truck bed. >Can remotely attach to a PowerBuoy for easy charging Not much of these are unique to the WAM-V. It's not the only Unmanned aquatic vessel to be able to have different sensors. If anything, it provides less information than Underwater Unmanned Vessel (UUV) counter-parts. I like the WAM-V cruising speed, it's fast on the surface and that can be useful. >They have been expanding their strategic partnerships, focusing on high impact partnerships. They are actively trying to increase market reach and accelerate revenue growth. OPTT's cost of revenue 2x'd from FY24 to FY25. They're trying to increase reach, but it's costly, and they aren't showing gains in their revenue from this. >Red Cat Holdings has partnered with Ocean Power Technologies, and according to their website "The partnership will enable organizations using OPT’s PowerBuoy® and WAM-V® platforms to deploy Teal 2 Drones as part of their strategy to leverage autonomous vehicles to assess and address maritime threats in real time." This is incredibly bullish knowing how much the U.S. government spends on the military. **There is a lot of speculation one could make here, such as if the government were to station drones around the ocean.** Lol, you're late to the party. Look up Teledyne. That's just the public traded international conglomerate that does this. >To quote an independent journalist, "Imagine a drone launched from a sea robot, powered by waves, communicating through a buoy that beams back AI-filtered data in real time" I'm not buying this in practice yet. The drone-recharging patent by OPTT was just filed in June 2025 >They have been increasing revenue and just announced a 28% reduction in operating expenses, with plans to achieve profitability by the end of this year. Revenue is basically flat YoY, and cost of revenue 2x'ed. Sure, they saved money in their salaries/admin, but the fact is they have to cut more fat before they are profitable at their current production levels (hence, backlog, they can't fill the orders). They also cannot expand their production without incurring some form of debt. They have solid products, they just are still in a transition period from being a wave-generation company to an aquatic-surveillance company. The history of OPTT as a (failed) green energy play (like, just look at their chart and read the history of their claims) leads me to wonder if this is just an attempt to maintain compliance. Sure, they are pivoting, but it's kind of the bare minimum.
Goldeneye. Pierce Brosnan driving the tank scene was iconic. PB is probably my fav James Bond.
> But a scalable, autonomous, self powered, modular platform is pretty exciting to a signal geek such as myself. Not really those things. >scalable OPTT has a lengthy backlog right now, with not *that* many orders for military scale. They haven't invested in a mass-production pipe-line, clearly, and yet their burn rate is greater than their revenue. >autonomous It is at least that. The different models can hit some decent cruising speeds over water. They are small'ish and agile, not a bad design. However, they do not meet the large payload (e.g. 1 shipping container) requests of modern US Navy calls for autonomous surface vessels. >self powered If you mean needing to go back to a PB3 to recharge, I guess? OPTT has no proof their recharging from PB3 actually works, the patent was just approved in June 2025; patents =/= realized products. >modular platform ehhh sure. Anything these days is "modular" to be honest. I'm just a lowly oceanography PhD student though

Can you teach a tard like me where i can look up PB or how to calculate it?
For most other stocks PE is solid to use to start with, but PB is what I use for Berkshire because Buffett himself says it is the best way to value his stock. He even alluded to what PB is too low and that they would be buying back stock hand over fist. That was 1.2PB. They bought back a lot at 1.3, less at 1.4. Higher than that they buy little to none. Right now it is between 1.55-1.6 PB. I sold some when it was around 1.8 ($535 a share). It has been simple and effective.
Berkshire Hathaway, over the last 16 years, buying more every time it drops below 1.3 PB, patience, not getting into hookers and blow, not dating seriously for over a decade, and marrying late into my 30’s.
Stress tests passed. Unmoderated capital plans. Asssumption of completely lawless regulatory environment under the crime family administration. Rates drop? They win. Rates stay here in the middle? They win. Rates rise? Win. Some I’m uncomfortable with PB though.
What's their PE and PB? How does their DCF compare to others?

Robinhood has contracts for the 2025 Nathan’s Hit Dog Eating Contest. With Joey Chestnut returning, it’s clear he is going to win.. but almost no money won on betting on chestnut. But!! You can also buy contracts on “How many HotDogs get consumed by the winner”. Now this is where the money is!!! Joey Chestnut has consistently eaten an average of 70.6 hot dogs in 10 Min, for the last 9 years! Granted he didn’t compete in 2024. BUT he did debut In a Netflix’s first live event, where he went on to eat 83 hot dogs in 10 Minutes! Breaking his PB (76) and the world record! He also did a Mr Beast video where he ate 66 hot dogs in 10 minute about 4 weeks ago… hmm… the money gets really good once you start to hit contracts at 70 > hot dogs [63cents per contract] . 75 > hot dogs [36 cents] and 80 > hot dogs [20 cents!]. So with this data and rumors this is his last hoorah, who’s to say he won’t try to smash the record again?! Is it possible he reaches 83 hotdogs? Should I take a few shots and full port yolo on 80> hotdogs … hmmm
Said by the dude in the break room eating a PB&J sandwich for lunch tomorrow
PB&J sauce on chicken wings. yum.
Had a PB&J for lunch, washing it down with some bustello. Im gonna take huge one
Illiterate plan and Donald J Trump go hand in hand like PB and J.
CCJ going nuclear ☢️… AI needs electricity… other countries need protection and build their own bombs.. going back to the Cold War Era..!?! NLR.. or CCJ.. will be high demand… U be worth more the AU… but PB will take it all very soon while taking control. No one is worried? First national guard decree in California? Lock down soon.. King 🥭
There are other, much cheaper, brands of PB and J. Anecdotal, but, I watch plenty of people in local stores and Wal-Mart going to the off brands.
You know how I know and that you know that I know, we are not in a recession? You all fuckers getting coffee out of the house and eating filets instead of PB&J's... You all killed SJM. Lol.
I’ve only ever had enough PB&J sandwiches in a row to know that they get old fast. But how do I know if this applies to BLT?
Late to the party, but here's my PB: I had just started trading options to keep myself entertained at work. I put $300 into a 'gambling' account and had some pretty easy little successes buying and selling calls on the meme stocks of the day (SPCE). I noticed that there was a pretty nasty looking virus in china, and it seemed to be spreading fast. Hospitals were being built in record time for all the new patients. I figured things might get ugly, so I bought some way OTM puts on ALLY, seeing as it had been bought up quite a bit around then. If my memory serves, I bought 30x $0.05 contracts for a total of $150. As you might figure, that nasty looking virus was COVID, and my puts expired right around the peak of fear. I sold all the way up, and netted around $8k from my $150 bet. The last options I sold were for $5.70 or something like that, 120x baggers. Like every other idiot who first discovers options, I convinced myself I was smart (not lucky) and was certain the green SPY candles was merely a dead cat bounce. I had no idea the options I was now buying were very, very expensive. After a few more wins and watching my account briefly kiss $15k, I watched those puts slowly turn to ash and my account value fade to 0. That was a hard lesson to learn.
How are coming up with a price or valuation of the company? Based off like current fundamental of the company, the forward PE is 42, PS is 12, and PB is 8 [https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=RDDT&p=d](https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=RDDT&p=d) If you off what stock analysis has: [https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/rddt/statistics/](https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/rddt/statistics/) Forward PE is 67 Not saying it's a bad investment, but based off the price of what you are paying for the company, it's got to keep hitting insane growth or there will be a bunch of pull backs in the future. My fear with Reddit is that i'm just sure how good their ad platform is for users compared to stuff like META or Google. I will give Rddt some props for hving great margins that are going up and EPS has been solid. Just fearful of how long they can grow like that.
I'm very American because my comfort food is PB&J.

Skippy Pretzel PB Bites are the bomb. Found those at some random truck stop on a road trip. Haven't found them since.
I've worked in some pretty big places and met a TON of hf managers and their contacts at their PB's. If you're not a total dick and are willing to look people in the eye, ask intelligent questions and provide intelligent feedback, you can make friends. Those friends in turn will include in their discussions about market-related topics. Some of the Redditors here should try it some time.
He can do what he wants cause congress and him are tight like PB & J
I said PB ratio, not PE ratio.
To everyone thinking of piling into BRK.B like a full retard: BRK.B is trading at a PB ratio of 1.8, which is the highest since December, 2007. Their largest holding is still Apple, which is down 20% and still overvalued. Buffett refused to buyback shares, further implying that he thinks BRK.B is overvalued. But go ahead you filthy nitwits.
I appreciate that PB reference on a Sunday morning.
RKLB is my top pick and I hope you hit a dinger with this one. Sir PB is the man. But curious what has given you this much conviction? I feel it’s a little early I was planning for some options for June or Sept. earnings. I want to see whites in the eyes lol. Good luck.
