FONR is currently trading below its true value, which means the market is undervaluing the company's expected cash flow going forward. This mispricing gives investors the opportunity to buy into the stock at a cheap price compared to the value they will be receiving, should analysts' consensus forecast growth be correct. Also, relative to the rest of its peers with similar levels of earnings, FONR's share price is trading below the group's average. This bolsters the proposition that FONR's price is currently discounted.

Nvidia's (NVDA) record profit had a US$7.8 billion catch. That chunk came from betting on its own customers, not from selling its chips.

The circularity worth examining is not the mark-to-market line. A large and growing share of Nvidia's revenue comes from companies funded by venture capital, and Nvidia participates in some of those rounds. That is the loop. The paper gains are just an accounting reflection of it, so focusing on them means arguing about the mirror rather than the room.

Hyperscalers grew 13% sequentially, the other AI segment grew 25% and 138% year on year. The faster half is the funded half. AI venture funding was over 400 billion in the first half with about 70% spent on compute. That is an interesting composition shift like I mentioned yesterday.
