Just shows you: being both contrarian AND right, is extremely hard. Michael Burry is no dummy.

People are paying Burry $3M/year to get slaughtered in $MOH and buy $GME as the next Berkshire lmao tweet

RT @nothingbutjp: Food service sector in Japan has surprisingly rich valuations ranging north of 30x PE. Raise cash and consolidate private sector. Commissory kitchens + shared logistics. The public-private valuation arbitrage is real.

RT @nitinkinvest: 6286.T Seiko, much like Casio, is seeing a substantial momentum in brand heat. Expect the company to beat and raise materially. No position! https://t.co/NUI731f86d

$6952.T (Casio) continues to show powerful global inflection. Seeing G-SHOCK in particular show up on multiple "Top 10" lists across major tracking channels.
The stock recently hit a 4-year high on the back of a significant Q3 '26 earnings beat and a newly announced ¥5 billion share buyback.
Amazon search trends for January are up a whopping 44% for G-SHOCK and 47% for the Casio brand (overall). Management is successfully pivoting toward high-margin metal models, I believe we are in the very early innings of a major re-rating story. tweet

Now well under retail. The problem with Pop Mart is that the revenues aren't recurring. Eventually you'll run out of space. And run out of interest buying newer, shinier version. https://t.co/lLzv70olb8

RT @MoreBirths: Where has fertility fallen the most in the past ten years?
Not in the richest countries but in middle income countries.
Countries like Turkey, Iran, Argentina, Thailand, and even Mexico now have fertility rates well below that of the United States. Why? 1/3 https://t.co/0yEkmEcBf3

Samsung Begins Tesla AI5 Wafer Processing… "Musk Also Attending Meetings"
Samsung Electronics will soon begin pilot production of Tesla's AI5 chips. While the AI5 and AI6 chip foundry contracts are loss-making in the short term, the level of interest is high enough that Tesla CEO Elon Musk is personally involved in working-level meetings with Samsung Electronics staff, raising expectations for revenue growth through expanded cooperation.
Samsung Electronics was previously reported to have secured a $16.5 billion (approximately 24 trillion won) contract from Tesla in July last year for foundry production of AI6 chips. The contract runs through 2033. Additionally, Samsung Electronics has also secured a portion of AI5 chip production, which had been expected to be produced entirely by TSMC. The opportunity arose for Samsung due to TSMC's limited production capacity and lower price competitiveness. Samsung Electronics will manufacture the AI5 and AI6 chips using its cutting-edge 2-nanometer process.
According to industry sources, Samsung Electronics will begin wafer processing for pilot production of Tesla AI5 chips as early as this month. Samsung's Taylor foundry fab in the United States had been expected to begin operations in the second half of this year, but the timeline has been moved up as Tesla recently completed the AI5 chip design. Considering that it takes three to four months from the first wafer input to produce finished products, initial AI5 chip samples are expected to be available as early as the first half of this year. Full-scale mass production is expected in 2027.
Tesla is investing significant effort in the AI chip development and production preparation process with Samsung Electronics. In particular, Tesla CEO Elon Musk is reportedly leading the project by personally overseeing key progress updates.
One semiconductor industry insider said, "Tesla CEO Elon Musk is paying close attention to the collaboration with Samsung Electronics. He personally participates in working-level technical meetings of Samsung Electronics' foundry division related to AI5 and AI6 chip work," adding, "I've heard he actively checks on progress point by point and offers his input during meetings."
Samsung Electronics had previously allowed Tesla to be involved in the manufacturing process, considering the risks that could arise during the initial mass production phase. CEO Elon Musk also expressed his willingness to be deeply involved in the project, emphasizing a close cooperative relationship with Samsung Electronics. This has gone beyond public statements to actual participation at the working level.
For the next-generation AI6 chip, which Samsung Electronics is exclusively responsible for, pilot production is expected to begin next year with mass production starting in 2028. During its recent fourth-quarter earnings conference call, the company expressed confidence, stating, "Our second-generation 2-nanometer process is on track for mass production in the second half of the year, meeting yield and performance targets," and "We are conducting power, performance, and area (PPA) evaluations and test chip collaborations with major clients for product design, with technology verification proceeding as planned."
The industry is paying attention to the mid-to-long-term value of Samsung Electronics' Tesla contract. While this deal is essentially a loss-making contract in the short term, it holds significant strategic importance considering future scalability. The contract volume for AI5 chips has not been disclosed but is known to be small. The AI6 chip contract is valued at $16.5 billion. Considering that Samsung Electronics is spending approximately $37 billion (about 54.2 trillion won) to build the Taylor foundry fab through 2030, annual revenue of around $3 billion is not a large proportion relative to the investment.
However, the potential expansion of applications for Tesla's AI5 and AI6 chips is a point where future revenue growth is expected[...]
