$INFQ $IONQ The GOAT has spoken π₯
Infleqtion has the potential to become one of the leading quantum computing companies.
Its current market capitalization does not reflect its true long-term value.
Just look at IONQ: after its SPAC merger, it was heavily shorted, the stock increased tenfold within a relatively short period. Even after a significant pullback, its valuation still stands at around $10 billion, Infleqtion is currently valued at under $2 billion.
From a long-term perspective, both companies have comparable potential.
When you consider the gap in market capitalization, Infleqtionβs unique business profile, and its strong strategic partnerships, it appears to be only a matter of time before the stock gains broader recognition.
At current levels, the entry price is highly attractive and may offer significant upside for investors who have not yet established a position.

250,000 Barrels Per Day. Through Turkey. At 10:00 AM Baghdad time today, Iraqi oil started flowing through the Kurdistan pipeline to Turkey's Ceyhan port. First time since the Iran war began. Three independent sources confirmed before the pumps turned on.β¦
Bessent just told the world the regime is bleeding out.
Treasury found the bank accounts. Iranian leadership. Frozen. Defections happening across every level of the regime. Capital flooding out faster than they can hide it.
His words: "The regime will probably collapse within itself."
That's the US Treasury Secretary saying on live television what the intel has been pointing to for two weeks. Not analysts. Not sources. The man running America's financial war machine.
Day 20.
Seven thousand targets. The IRGC confirmed their own spokesman was killed overnight.
Pentagon requested another $200 billion.
Think about that number.
You don't budget $200 billion to bomb and leave. That's reconstruction money.
That's "we're staying to build what comes next" money.
Iran responded the way a cornered regime responds. Hit four countries in 48 hours. Qatar's Ras Laffan. Saudi's Samref. Two Kuwaiti refineries. A UAE gas hub.
All at once.
All energy infrastructure.
And here's where it gets interesting. They hit Qatar. The country that was sitting between them and a ceasefire.
The one mediating.
Qatar threw out Iran's military attaches within 24 hours. Saudi's foreign minister went public and said trust is "completely shattered."
You tell me what kind of regime attacks its last mediator.
That's not a military decision. That's a leadership that checked its bank balance, saw the wire transfers leaving, and started swinging at anything in reach.
Now zoom out.
500 miles west, Iraq is doing the opposite of panicking. SOMO signed export contracts through Turkey, Jordan, and Syria. 900,000 barrels per day targeted through corridors that don't touch Hormuz.
Ceyhan is already flowing. Parliament is demanding the HCL be drafted and passed. CBI reserves over $115 billion. Inflation sitting at 1.8%. KRG sent salaries to Baghdad for the third straight month. Maliki's nomination officially withdrawn.
That's not one reform moving. That's all of them. Simultaneously. While the region burns around them.
Part 1 of the Architecture Series mapped how these systems get rebuilt.
Part 2 followed the money.
What's happening in Iraq right now is what it looks like when the blueprint meets the construction crew.
One country is watching its treasury empty and its allies walk away. The other is stacking reserves, building export routes, and passing the reforms that were blocked for twenty years by the same Iranian influence that's now collapsing in on itself.
Bessent dropped one more thing. 140 million barrels of Iranian oil sitting on tankers. Treasury ready to lift sanctions and flood the open market. That crude was locked up for China. Not anymore.
Iraq doesn't need the Strait.
Iran can't function without it.
And the people running what's left of Tehran already moved their money out.
When asked whether Kharg Island eventually becomes a US asset, the Treasury Secretary didn't blink.
"We will see."
And if you didn't know, Trump has been watching that island since 1988.

Drones Are Scaling Faster Than Most Investors Realize
Drones are shifting from niche tools to core infrastructure across defense, logistics, inspection, and mobility. The market is scaling from $69B in 2026 to $147B by 2036, with expanded TAM estimates reaching $400B as AI and autonomy are layered in.
Hereβs the map π
$KTOS β Kratos
Pure-play on high-performance unmanned systems. XQ-58A Valkyrie sits at the center of loyal wingman programs tied to Air Force and DARPA initiatives. Raised $1.4B in Feb 2026 to scale production before full-rate contracts. Fixed-price contracts compress margins today, but operating leverage flips once Valkyrie moves beyond low-rate production.
$RCAT β Red Cat
Small-cap ISR platform scaling fast through US Army SRR Tranche 2 win. Black Widow program anchors credibility. Expanded into maritime via Blue Ops, adding unmanned surface vehicles to the stack. Liquidity jumped to $212M+ in 2025. Gross margin at 4.2% signals heavy ramp phase, not optimization yet.
$AVAV β AeroVironment
Only US-listed player combining ISR drones + loitering munitions at scale. Switchblade 300/600 deployed globally, backed by $4.6B in YTD awards and $1.1B funded backlog. Mix shift toward munitions compressed margins to 27%. Demand remains structural as procurement shifts toward expendable systems.
$ESLT β Elbit Systems
Full-stack drone exposure across Hermes 900, Skylark, Lanius, and SkyStriker. $28.1B backlog with 72% international mix. ISTAR & EW segment grew 39% in Q4, driven by drone-linked intelligence systems. European defense budgets + NATO restocking create multi-year visibility across platforms and payloads.
$LMT β Lockheed Martin
Not a drone company β a systems integrator. Demonstrated F-22 controlling drones mid-flight, pushing crewed-uncrewed teaming forward. HELIOS laser successfully neutralized UAV threats in Navy tests. $3.5B annual R&D builds long-term moat where drones integrate into larger combat architectures.
$AIRO β AIRO
NATO-aligned VTOL ISR platform via RQ-35 Heidrun. Operates across border patrol, surveillance, and search/rescue. Q3 revenue impacted by ~$20M shipment delays, showing lumpiness at small scale. 58% gross margin reflects embedded software/services. European defense expansion directly feeds pipeline.
$UMAC β Unusual Machines
Only US-listed NDAA-compliant drone component supplier. Motors, ESCs, FPV systems replacing Chinese hardware. Enterprise mix jumped from 31% β 81% in 2025. $103M cash, zero debt. First US Army order ($2.1M) validates procurement pathway. TAM expands with every restriction on foreign components.
$TDY β Teledyne
Owns the sensing layer. FLIR thermal cameras integrated across global UAV fleets. Digital Imaging segment grew 20%+, driven by infrared payload demand. Platform-agnostic exposure β benefits from every drone built, regardless of manufacturer. Quiet infrastructure play with high switching costs.
$LHX β L3Harris
Controls the network layer. Selected by DIU to prototype swarm command system capable of coordinating thousands of autonomous assets. Backlog >$38B, book-to-bill 1.3. AN/PRC-158 radios already deployed on Gray Eagle UAS. Future upside tied to scaling multi-drone coordination, not single platforms.
$RTX β RTX (Raytheon)
Exposure sits around drones, not inside them. Coyote interceptor deployed in live environments. Collins Aerospace supplies avionics and navigation systems embedded in UAVs. $268B backlog with 1.56 book-to-bill. Captures value from both drone proliferation and counter-drone demand simultaneously.
$DRO / $DRSHF β DroneShield
Pure-play counter-drone. DroneGun and DroneSentry platforms detect and neutralize UAV threats. Pipeline at A$2.3B across 295 deals globally. 18 deals >A$30M, largest at A$750M. Operating leverage kicks in above ~A$150M cost base. Revenue timing remains lumpy, but demand is accelerating.
