IonQ: Quantum Story May Get Messier After SkyWater

Summary I was a bull in November 2024. Then I turned bearish in March 2025 when risk was off the table. Since then, I haven't revisited this stock. Big mistake. I am now upgrading to a speculative buy due to the SkyWater deal. Post-acquisition, quantum may become a third of FY26 revenue. The stock may trade on semiconductor momentum and defense tailwinds, not quantum multiples, which frankly deserve to compress anyway. I need to see SkyWater close cleanly and IonQ keep shipping hardware. Q1 2026 results were decent, but I want to see the momentum holding up. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Apple Is Priced Like Everything Has To Go Right: It Just Might

Summary I am bullish on Apple, and the last two quarters gave me more reason to defend my bull case. The iPhone 17 cycle is even stronger than I expected, and China is no longer stagnant. That said, I still need WWDC to give me real and specific Siri dates, eligible devices, languages, China handling, and beta availability. To be crystal clear, I want management to rent AI smartly, not burn cash in AI foundational models, copying the likes of Meta. I stay bullish, but at 35x earnings, but Apple now needs a clean Siri rollout to justify the next leg of the bull run. Any negative headlines during WWDC26 may lead me to downgrade.

Sandisk: AI Runaway Train - More Correction Necessary

Summary Sandisk (SNDK) has delivered a rare, black swan moment, with the YTD adj. EPS growth by +10,762.1% YoY triggered the stock's immense rally of +3,624% from the 52-week low. Further growth is likely as well, as observed in the promising industry trends, the expanding capex, the outsized multi-year RPOs, and the richer balance sheet. This is on top of the approved sampling of their new data center offerings and the ongoing inventory buildup supporting their promising FQ4'26 guidance. It goes without saying, then, that SNDK's current valuations and stock prices already priced in their profitable growth prospects, with it offering interested investors a minimal margin of safety. Given the ongoing momentum fatigue after the previously overbought technicals, I recommend some patience pending the materialization of my Buy Zones near the $1,007s.
