Senator Josh Hawley just grilled the Chief Labor Counsel at Boeing, $BA.
"Your CEO got $32.8M of compensation in a year...at that point in time your planes were literally falling out of the sky in pieces and you weren't paying your workers"

RT @LudovicCreator: 🎬 From Storyboards to Motion: Testing Video Models
What happens after you’ve built your storyboard and locked in your visual style?
For me, the answer was simple: take the leap into motion.
In the first part of my workflow, I tested six different image models to see which one matched my creative vision. I chose Flux 1.1 Ultra — not as a universal winner, but as the model most aligned with the atmosphere and tone I wanted for this project.
With that choice made, I moved forward:
Picked one key image per storyboard section with Flux 1.1 Ultra.
Built a consistent visual anchor for the narrative.
Then tested four different video models to explore how these visuals could be translated into motion.
I tested Luma RAY , Adobe Firefly Video, Marey Moonvalley ; Runway GEN 4.
👉 The goal wasn’t to rank models. It was to find the right one for this story — the one capable of carrying its mood, pacing, and emotion into video.
This creates a natural progression in the workflow:
Adobe Firefly Boards → structure & storytelling foundation
Flux 1.1 Ultra → cohesive cinematic imagery
Video model tests → translating stills into animated sequences
✨ Next step: refining the workflow and moving toward the first animated cut, where my storyboard finally comes alive and you will know my choice.
👇 What will you find in the thread :
- First comment the full storyboard with the first part
- The Video models comparison for each image and prompt used
- The link of first part article
💡 What would be your model picked here and why ? Would love to know in comments
👇 Check the thread — This article is sponsored by Adobe Firefly through a paid partnership, but all opinions and experiments are my own.

RT @DimitryNakhla: A quality valuation analysis on $ASML 🧘🏽♂️
•NTM P/E Ratio: 29.88x
•10-Year Mean: 31.10x
•NTM FCF Yield: 2.90%
•10-Year Mean: 3.05%
As you can see, $ASML appears to be trading near fair value
Going forward, investors can receive ~4% MORE in earnings per share & ~5% LESS in FCF per share🧠***
Before we get into valuation, let’s take a look at why $ASML is an excellent business (*Financials in USD*)
BALANCE SHEET✅
•Cash & Short Term Inv: $8.49B
•Long-Term Debt: $4.33B
$ASML has a strong balance sheet & 68x FFO Interest Coverage
RETURN ON CAPITAL✅
•2021: 43.8%
•2022: 48.0%
•2023: 48.7%
•2024: 38.3%
•LTM: 51.8%
RETURN ON EQUITY✅
•2021: 49.0%
•2022: 59.4%
•2023: 70.4%
•2024: 47.4%
•LTM: 58.2%
$ASML has excellent return metrics, highlighting the financial efficiency of the business
REVENUES✅
•2014: $7.09B
•2024: $29.28B
•CAGR: 15.23%
FREE CASH FLOW*
• $ASML FCF is very sporadic due to heavy capital expenditures & isn’t necessarily the most reliable way to analyze the company’s value
•2014: $1.23B
•2024: $9.43B
•CAGR: 22.59%
NORMALIZED EPS✅
•2014: $3.15
•2024: $20.03
•CAGR: 20.31%
SHARE BUYBACKS✅
•2018 Shares Outstanding: 426.40M
•LTM Shares Outstanding: 392.00M
By reducing its shares outstanding ~8.0%, $ASML increased its EPS by ~8.7% (assuming 0 growth)
MARGINS✅
•LTM Gross Margins: 52.5%
•LTM Operating Margins: 34.8%
•LTM Net Income Margins: 29.3%
***NOW TO VALUATION 🧠
As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~4% MORE in EPS & 5% LESS in FCF per share
Using Benjamin Graham’s 2G rule of thumb, $ASML has to grow earnings at a 14.94% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation
Today, analysts anticipate 2025 - 2028 EPS growth over the next few years to be more than the (14.94%) required growth rate:
2025E: $28.07 (22.0% YoY) *FY Dec
2026E: $29.84 (13.8% YoY)
2027E: $35.83 (21.3% YoY)
2028E: $40.00 (21.3% YoY)
$ASML has a decent track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out so let’s assume $ASML ends 2028 with $40.00 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples:
31x P/E: $1240💵 … ~14.5% CAGR
30x P/E: $1200💵 … ~13.4% CAGR
29x P/E: $1160💵 … ~12.2% CAGR
28x P/E: $1120💵 … ~11.0% CAGR
27x P/E: $1080💵 … ~9.8% CAGR
As you can see, $ASML appears to have attractive return potential if we assume greater or equal to 29x EPS (below its 10-year mean, current multiple, & justified given its quality, moat & growth rate if we consider its 15.77% EPS CAGR Estimates 2026-2028)
Today at $813💵 $ASML appears to be a good consideration for investment, albeit with extreme volatility & a smaller margin of safety than when it traded for ~26x in May 2025 (when I considered it a “strong consideration for investment”)
