I’m still bullish on $ATZ (Aritzia). 📈💕 I believe in the brand, its long-term growth potential, and its ability to continue expanding its presence in the fashion industry. Short-term price movements and market volatility are part of investing, but I’m focused on the bigger picture rather than just the daily fluctuations. Great companies don’t always move up in a straight line, and sometimes patience is part of the journey. Do your own research, understand the risks, and invest based on your own conviction. I’m sharing my perspective, not financial advice. 💎🙌 #ATZ #Aritzia #LongTermInvesting #StockMarket
A marketing company just told Wall Street it's building its own chip. That's the headline grabbing attention. But the real story is AthenaOS. Zeta Live had four announcements total, and AthenaOS is the one actually aimed at Steinberg's $10B target Closest precedent: ServiceNow did a classic land-and-expand, starting in IT services, then into HR and customer service. Its market cap went from $15.2B to $106.5B in four years. AthenaOS has no customers yet, and rollout isn't until 2027. Want the full breakdown of all four announcements?

David Steinberg walks on stage Thursday asking Wall Street for a new label for Zeta Global. In July it traded at ~3x sales. The AI infrastructure club it compares itself to ($PLTR, $SNOW, $CRWD, $DDOG, $MDB) trades at 7-34x. I went through the receipts before the event. Full 11-minute video at the bottom of this post. Here's where things stand. The promise tracker so far: - Athena (promised Oct 2025): DELIVERED. Not usable on launch day, but live for everyone by March. Zeta says about 4 in 10 of its biggest customers use it now. - Palantir, promise 1 (move every data customer onto Palantir's system in about a month): DELIVERED, per Steinberg. - Palantir, promise 2 (land one joint customer that quarter): DELIVERED. They landed two. - Palantir's $100M/yr target: IN PROGRESS. Steinberg says it's "looking super low," but two customers isn't $100M yet. - OpenAI deal size: NOT DISCLOSED. Why Wall Street isn't fully buying it (all from Zeta's own paperwork): - The comparison chart grades Zeta with one ruler and the peers with another. It's disclosed in the footnotes, but it isn't apples to apples. - Stock-based comp was bigger than free cash flow last year. It's shrinking, and they buy back shares, but it isn't fixed. - The one that worries me: Zeta's own 2026 guidance has core growth (ex-Marigold, ex-political) slowing every quarter, from the high 20s to about 20%. The pitch says "price us like Palantir." The forecast says "we're slowing down." How I'm grading Thursday, announcement by announcement: - Is there a number? - Can customers use it that day? - Does it move anything outside marketing? Where I land: bullish, but I need to see more. The product's real, the partners are real, and the business is better than the price tag. A new label isn't something you announce. It's something the market gives you. Friday I post the Catalyst Check: every promise from the stage, graded. Full preview: https://youtu.be/U8lY6ZBeCLw I own shares. Not financial advice. $ZETA$PLTRread more
Most people read SpaceX's spectrum deal as bad news for $ASTS. My read: it's worse news for the carriers, and that pushes them toward AST. AT&T and Verizon are already on board. The real question is T-Mobile, still tied to Starlink into 2027. Does the carriers' new joint venture end up bringing T-Mobile to AST's table? What's your read?
