پستهای کانال
IONQ tests first quantum error decoder. Cracker Barrel's first report under David Deno
↗️ General Mills (GIS) +1%. The food and pet food manufacturer reported EPS and revenue above expectations and reaffirmed its 2027 guidance.
↗️ Cintas (CTAS) +1%. A provider of uniforms and facility services for order and safety in offices and facilities. EPS and revenue beat forecasts.
↗️ Worthington Enterprises (WOR) +18%. An industrial company, manufacturer of products for construction, consumer markets, and sustainable energy. The report confidently beat analyst forecasts across all key metrics, dispelling concerns after disappointing results in the previous quarter. CEO Joe Hayek noted growing demand for ASME engineered tanks used in liquid cooling systems for data centers as a significant growth point going forward.
↗️ IONQ (IONQ) +10%. The company announced the successful testing of its first real-time quantum error decoder.
↗️ Cracker Barrel Old Country Store (CBRL) +6%. A chain of roadside restaurants and retail gift shops. EPS and revenue above expectations. This is the first earnings release under new CEO David Deno, who took the helm in August.
↘️ Paychex (PAYX) -7%. The company provides software and outsourcing services for businesses. EPS slightly above expectations, revenue in line with consensus. Investors were disappointed by the pace of synergies from recent acquisitions, including the Paycor integration, and margin metrics. Despite overall efficiency gains, the market had expected more aggressive returns from technology solutions.
| 2 |  🛍 Costco: $400 billion in market capitalization, hundreds of billions in revenue, and an impeccable reputation
Costco is a membership-based wholesale retailer built around one obsessive idea: give customers the lowest possible price. And America seems to love it. The company ranks fifth in the Axios Harris Poll corporate reputation ranking of the 100 largest US companies (Walmart is ranked 83rd).
💡 Costco’s $1.50 hot dog-and-drink combo has been around for more than 40 years. The company has publicly pledged to keep the price unchanged. And in order to continue selling its rotisserie chicken for $4.99, Costco built its own poultry operation. These products have turned out to be some of the company’s best advertising: people come in for a hot dog and leave with a full shopping cart. Costco has virtually no traditional advertising budget.
💼 There is another strict rule: product markups do not exceed 14% (15% for Costco’s own Kirkland brand). Any savings the company achieves in logistics and overhead are used to keep prices low. By comparison, Walmart operates with a 27.5% markup, while BJ’s Wholesale uses 19.1%.
🤝 Then there are the employees. Unusually for retail, Costco has very low staff turnover, with average employee tenure of around nine years. Co-founder and former CEO James Sinegal calculated how much competitors such as Walmart were spending on constantly hiring and training new employees and decided to spend at least half of that amount on decent wages instead. In return, Costco gained experience, productivity, and loyalty.
On several occasions, Sinegal said he did not care about Wall Street analysts who criticized him for prioritizing employees and customers over shareholders. His response was simple: if you don’t like it, sell the stock.
The result is a rare combination for a public company: happy customers, loyal employees, and enormous revenue.
⭐️ On Thursday after the market closes, Costco will release its earnings report. Add COST to your Favorites or straight to your portfolio on UTEX: https://go.utex.io/hpeawq | 3 367 |
| 3 |  GameStop CEO buys more shares. New anti-obesity injections can be given less often than once a week
↗️ Vicor Corporation (VICR) +10%. A manufacturer of modular components and integrated power systems based on a portfolio of patented technologies. The company raised its quarter-over-quarter revenue growth forecast from nearly 10% to more than 20%. Vicor received royalties under a recently announced non-exclusive licensing agreement related to Vertical Power Delivery (VPD) technology. CEO Patrizio Vinciarelli stated that four leading OEMs and hyperscale data center operators have already obtained licenses to use the power system technology developed and patented by Vicor.
↗️ On Holding (ONON) +6%. The Swiss premium sports brand held its 2026 Investor Day at On Labs in Zurich. The company introduced its first-ever share buyback program of up to $1B. For the quarter, net sales are projected to grow approximately 17%. The company also expects a $65M refund of customs duties, which will positively impact gross profit.
↘️ Quest Diagnostics (DGX) -6%. A company in diagnostic testing and related services. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) published preliminary rate proposals that could cut lab reimbursements by up to 15% starting January 1, 2027. Truist Securities analysts maintained a "Hold" rating and raised their price target from $250 to $260. But regulatory risk remains high: the cuts could hit routine tests, which form the backbone of Quest's revenue.
🪙 Bitcoin has already gained 12% over the week, currently trading at 86,000.
↗️ Viking Therapeutics (VKTX) +37%. The company published preliminary results from a study of its anti-obesity drug VK2735. Participants who switched from weekly injections to less frequent dosing regimens maintained most of the weight loss achieved over 12 weeks. The gastrointestinal safety profile was comparable to placebo.
↗️ Thor Industries (THO) +3%. The largest manufacturer of motorhomes and travel trailers reported mixed results. Earnings per share fell short of consensus, but revenue exceeded expectations.
“Our fiscal 2026 proved to be more challenging than we anticipated at the outset of the year due to the headwinds impacting the RV industry,” said CEO Bob Martin. “Against this backdrop, our teams executed by delivering net sales of $9.61B for fiscal 2026, exceeding the high end of our guidance — evidence of both our geographic diversity and the sustained appeal of the RV lifestyle".
↗️ GameStop (GME) +4%. CEO Ryan Cohen bought 1,150,680 shares at an average price of $22.9375 for $26.4M. | 3 589 |

| 5 |  New hopes for crypto regulation. Zuckerberg may unveil Meta's AI strategy on Wednesday
🔼🔽 Major US indices closed last week mixed. The SPY lost 0.34%, while the Nasdaq gained 0.92%.
🌟 As usual, the technology sector led the gains: CrowdStrike (+14%), Palo Alto Networks (+9%), SanDisk (+9%), Advanced Micro Devices (+8%). Top decliners included Goldman Sachs (-8%), Bank of America (-7%), Netflix (-7%), and IBM (-5%).
🦅 The Fed raised interest rates by 25 basis points, and Kevin Warsh's hawkish remarks at the press conference reflected his stance. According to CME FedWatch, the probability of another hike at the October 28 meeting is now 53%.
🪙 On Tuesday, the CLARITY Act, a crypto regulation bill, failed to secure the 60 votes needed in the Senate to advance to the next stage. Bitcoin initially dropped on the news to nearly $75,000 but then unexpectedly rebounded easily and settled above $80,000. BTC is currently trading at $85,000.
🪙 Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong stated that the industry can no longer wait for Congress. He urged the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to use their existing tools to create clear rules. Already on Thursday, the SEC approved an "innovation exemption" for blockchain platforms, allowing them to trade tokenized US stocks without registering as exchanges. The next day, the CFTC sent a draft of new rules for crypto transactions and markets to the White House.
🏦 This week, five Fed officials are scheduled to speak, and the market will be looking for hints on whether another hike before year-end is inevitable.
👤 On Wednesday, Mark Zuckerberg will speak at the annual Meta Connect conference, where he may discuss Meta's AI strategy and unveil smart glasses without a camera.
📌 There will be few earnings reports, but notable ones include AutoZone, Cintas, Paychex, General Mills, Costco, Darden Restaurants, TD SYNNEX, Thor Industries, and KB Home.

↘️ Xenon Pharmaceuticals (XENE) -22%. The company announced a voluntary pause in patient enrollment in its current Phase 3 clinical trials for major depressive disorder and bipolar depression after analyzing data on nervous system and psychiatric adverse events.
↘️ Nucor (NUE) -2%. The steel company issued a quarterly profit forecast notably below consensus.
↘️ Netflix (NFLX) -3%. Wells Fargo downgraded the streaming giant to "Underperform" and cut its price target from $80 to $57. The bank cited weakening audience engagement. Analyst Steven Cahall noted that Netflix appears to be expanding engagement into games, documentaries, reality shows, and video podcasts, competing with YouTube, but risks missing out on buzzworthy original projects that create value for subscribers.
🪙 Bitcoin has risen and is now trading around $78,000. Crypto stocks are also in the green:
Strategy (MSTR) +3%
Coinbase (COIN) +2%
BitMine (BMNR) +3%
↗️ On Holding (ONON) +5%. The Swiss sneaker brand signed a contract with French star Kylian Mbappé as a global brand ambassador and product development partner, marking the company's official entry into the global football market. This is a direct challenge to the long-standing dominance of Nike and Adidas. Mbappé, the 27-year-old "Real Madrid" forward, terminated his previous sponsorship contract with Nike to help On develop footwear and apparel using its proprietary LightSpray manufacturing technology. | 4 236 |
| 9 |  +1Top trades of the first half of September 📅
✨ One trader took five of the ten spots and made +$9,500 in profit. But another beat that result with just two trades: +$13,600 from a CoreWeave short and an SK Hynix long.
✨ 8 out of 10 trades were longs, but the biggest profit came from a short position in CRWV → +$7,070. The top traders spent an average of about 5 hours in a position. Almost all trades were closed the same day or the next.
✨ The 3x leveraged semiconductor ETF SOXL earned one trader ~15%, or $1,806, on a position of just $12,000. Meanwhile, a $400,000 position in Tyson Foods returned only 0.29%, but generated roughly the same profit — $1,674. Size matters.
✨ Half the list is AI and semiconductors: CoreWeave, SK Hynix, Broadcom, SOXL, and Marvell Technology. The other five tickers come from retail, food, and finance. There are opportunities everywhere.
✨ Among positions that are still open, Rocket Lab hurts the most. The stock has lost 21% over the past month, leaving UTEX traders with $65,000 in unrealized losses. The most profitable open positions are in Securitize (a real-world asset tokenization company), Michael Saylor’s Strategy, and Ethos (a life insurance platform).
Different stocks, timeframes, and position sizes. The key is to find the move and take profits at the right time.

| 10 |  Rate hiked, but the market isn't disappointed. Nebius raises prices
🏦 As expected, yesterday the Fed raised rates by 25 basis points — to 3.75%–4%. Fed Chair Kevin Warsh stated that inflation remains too high, and that the regulator is abandoning the practice of giving markets advance signals about future moves. Warsh emphasized that fixating on individual monthly reports (such as inflation or retail sales) is dangerous, and that the Fed will no longer react impulsively to every new batch of "noisy" data. Analysts expect "maximally hawkish policy" from the Fed. Nevertheless, in pre‑market trading the SPY is up 1.15%, and the Nasdaq is up 1.5%.
↗️ Generac Holdings (GNRC) +30%. The energy company announced a major long‑term agreement with Amazon to supply backup power generators for Amazon Web Services (AWS) data centers. The total potential contract value could reach up to $8B. The first shipments, worth $2.4B, are scheduled for 2027 and 2028.
↘️ Fluence Energy (FLNC) -21%. A provider of energy storage solutions and AI‑based software for optimizing renewable energy and power grids. The company sharply cut its full‑year guidance due to ongoing supply chain disruptions affecting battery production in the US.
↘️ Lennar (LEN) -1%. The homebuilder again lowered its delivery volume forecast for the current year, citing pressure from interest rates and worsening conditions in the residential real estate market.
↗️ Nebius (NBIS) +9%. The company disclosed details of the second stage of cloud GPU and CPU price increases: starting October 1, H100 prices will rise 17%, and B300 by 21%.
↗️ Vicor Corporation (VICR) +12%. The company is addressing the "last inch" power delivery problem for AI accelerators consuming over 1,000 watts. It announced the granting of a non‑exclusive license to its Vertical Power Delivery (VPD) technology to a leading AI hardware manufacturer. | 4 159 |
| 11 |  $2,000 for an iPhone Duo or Apple stock?
For the same amount of money, you can buy a new smartphone or become a co-owner of the company that makes it by buying 6 shares.
Apple’s gross margin was around 50% last quarter. And over the full 2025 fiscal year, the company returned more than $100B to shareholders through buybacks and dividends. Share buybacks reduce the number of shares outstanding, increasing the ownership stake of remaining shareholders.
With an iPhone, the trajectory is fairly predictable: in a year, it will be worth about a third less, and in two years, about half as much.
There’s no such certainty with stocks: they can rise or fall. That uncertainty is the price of having upside potential.
🍏 Apple shares are available for trading on UTEX. | 4 243 |
| 12 |  Markets await Fed decision, chipmakers discuss deal, J.B. Hunt warns of lower profit
⚠️ Investors are preparing for the Fed’s interest rate decision today. According to CME FedWatch, the probability of a 25-basis-point rate hike stands at 92.5%.
🪙 Bitcoin is trading around $76,000. Yesterday, the U.S. Senate blocked consideration of the CLARITY Act, but the crypto market avoided a sharp selloff.
↘️ J.B. Hunt Transport Services (JBHT) -10%. The transportation and logistics company unexpectedly warned that third-quarter profit could fall 5–10% compared with the second quarter. J.B. Hunt does not typically comment on results during the quarter.
↗️ Intel (INTC) +3%, SK Hynix (SKHY) +2%. Reuters reported, citing three sources, that SK Hynix is in talks with Intel over a potential deal to manufacture memory chips in the U.S. Two options are under discussion. The first would involve SK Hynix leasing part of Intel’s planned Ohio facility. The second would involve forming a joint venture between the two companies and major cloud service providers.
↘️ Expedia Group (EXPE) -2%. The company operates travel planning and booking services. Morgan Stanley analysts rated the stock Underweight and set a $235 price target, about 20% below Tuesday’s closing price. The bank’s concerns center on user engagement. In the second quarter, growth in Expedia’s monthly active users slowed to 0%, compared with 6% at Booking.com and 10% at Airbnb.
Analysts also highlighted Expedia’s heavy reliance on chain hotels and air travel. Offerings in these segments differ little across platforms, making them more vulnerable to the rise of AI tools. Morgan Stanley believes Expedia lags its competitors in differentiating its offering for users.
↗️ Trip.com Group (TCOM) +4%. The Shanghai-based online travel services group reported EPS and revenue above expectations. Chairman James Liang called inbound travel to China a key growth opportunity.
“We intend to support the development of inbound tourism and have set an ambitious goal of serving 200 million international travelers over the next five years,” Liang said. | 4 271 |
| 13 |  Crypto stocks under pressure, biotech +15%. Premarket overview
↗️ Waystar Holding (WAY) +12%. The healthcare payments software provider is exploring strategic alternatives, including a potential sale.
↗️ Vera Therapeutics (VERA) +15%. The biotech stock is rising after a successful trial of its drug for patients with primary IgA nephropathy at high risk of disease progression.
↘️ TORM (TRMD) -7%. The company specializes in seaborne transportation of refined oil products, including gasoline, jet fuel, and naphtha. It announced a secondary public offering of 9M shares. TORM itself is not selling any shares and will not receive any proceeds from the offering — the deal represents a large institutional investor exiting its position.
↘️ Dave & Buster's Entertainment (PLAY) -13%. The company operates a chain of restaurants with arcade games and sports viewing across North America. Its earnings report fell short of Wall Street expectations for both EPS and revenue. Entertainment-related revenue fell nearly 9% to $332.6M.
🪙 Bitcoin is trading around $77,000. The Senate is holding a procedural vote on the CLARITY Act today. Democrats have sent Republicans a counterproposal as the two sides have yet to reach an agreement on ethics restrictions for government officials related to crypto assets. The bill’s chances of passing are estimated at 15–25%.
↘️ Against this backdrop, crypto-related stocks are lower:
Coinbase (COIN) -4%
Strategy (MSTR) -3%
BitMine Immersion (BMNR) -4% | 4 227 |
| 14 |  AI concerns and the rate decision. What to expect from markets this week
🔽 Major stock indexes ended last week lower: SPY lost 0.77%, while the Nasdaq fell 0.57%. As usual, the tech sector performed best: Dell Technologies +8%, Advanced Micro Devices +8%, SK Hynix and Intel +7% each. The biggest declines came from two major pharmaceutical companies — Novartis (-14%) and Amgen (-13%).
🪙 Bitcoin fell about 1.7% over the week and is now trading around $77,800.
🏦 The main event this week is Wednesday’s Fed meeting, when the interest rate decision will be announced. Recent data showed that the labor market remains relatively resilient: more jobs were added in August than expected, while economists revised June and July employment figures higher. According to CME FedWatch, the probability of a 25-basis-point rate hike has risen to 86.5%, from just 58.6% a week ago. Ahead of the meeting, Trump said that “the United States should have the lowest interest rates in the world.”
👌 On Sunday, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman officially confirmed that the company had abandoned plans for a 2026 IPO. He cited serious concerns about AI safety and uncontrolled development as the main reason. Earlier, Altman told Fortune that even a 10% chance of AI causing human extinction by the end of the decade was completely unacceptable.
⚡ OpenAI’s decision coincided with a major essay by Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, who warned about the risks of recursive self-improvement in AI models. Industry leaders, including Elon Musk (xAI) and Demis Hassabis (Google DeepMind), unexpectedly agreed that the AI race needs to slow down to allow more time to develop effective control mechanisms.
💬 Some investors are already concerned that statements from Altman and Amodei could have a significant impact on stocks of companies with exposure to AI.

↘️ Zumiez (ZUMZ) -15%. The action sports retailer reported a loss per share of $0.17 on revenue of $209M, both below expectations. Investor sentiment deteriorated sharply after the company issued weak third-quarter guidance. It expects revenue of $222–226M and EPS of $0.00–0.10, compared with Wall Street consensus of $0.59. The cautious outlook reflects sluggish demand for apparel during the back-to-school season.
↘️ Adobe (ADBE) -4%. Revenue and EPS came in only slightly above expectations. Fourth-quarter revenue guidance was slightly below consensus.
↗️ Oracle (ORCL) +6%. The database and cloud infrastructure giant reported EPS of $1.92, beating the consensus estimate of $1.73. Total revenue came in at $19.3B, including $11.6B from cloud services. Oracle also raised its EPS and revenue guidance for 2027.
↗️ Copart (CPRT) +4%. A major U.S. operator of a global online vehicle auction platform. EPS missed expectations, but Copart agreed to acquire ACV Auctions (ACVA), a marketplace for wholesale used vehicle sales. The deal is valued at about $1.9B, or $10.50 per share — a 45% premium to ACVA’s August 10 closing price.
↗️ RH (RH) +7%. The company specializes in luxury home furnishings. Second-quarter profit increased, and the full-year outlook was raised. CEO Gary Friedman highlighted strong initial demand for the new RH Estates collection. He noted that interest is coming “almost exclusively” from new customers, suggesting that the collection is genuinely expanding the company’s target market rather than cannibalizing sales of existing products.
↗️ Frequency Electronics (FEIM) +29%. A manufacturer of high-precision timing and frequency control systems. EPS and revenue significantly exceeded expectations. Funded backlog rose to a record $129M, up 82% year over year and 16% from the previous quarter. The book-to-bill ratio reached 1.76:1, signaling sustained demand from US satellite, government, and defense programs. Management expects annual revenue to reach or exceed $150M by fiscal 2029. One customer under a secure military communications contract has requested a more than 50% increase in monthly production volume.

| 17 |  Basis risk in funding arbitrage: when the hedge stops working
In an ideal scenario, the asset’s price moves in sync across both platforms. The long and short offset each other, and you collect the funding.
The thing is, stocks and commodities on, for example, UTEX and Binance are not exactly the same instruments. They are two different representations of the same underlying asset. In a calm market, they move closely together, but sometimes the market mechanics break down.
The basis is the price difference between the two platforms. This can happen because of:
🔘Different exchange trading hours.
🔘Technical issues.
🔘Liquidity problems.
🔘Delistings and market stress.
🔘Overheated perpetual futures markets.
Example
Unfavorable news cause Nokia to fall 5% on Binance but only 2% on UTEX. That 3% gap is an unexpected loss the hedge did not cover. On a $5,000 position, that is $150 out of nowhere. For comparison, the total funding on NOK over two strong days was around $70. Basis risk is dangerous because it is almost impossible to control — you cannot force two platforms to trade at the same price.
What you can do
✔️ Allow for a small basis-risk buffer of 1–3% of your capital as a possible deviation.
✔️ Choose liquid instruments. Thin, illiquid tickers tend to diverge more often and by a wider margin.
✔️ Watch the price gap between platforms. If it starts widening and does not come back, that is a signal to exit.
Basis risk is one of the four risks in funding arbitrage that we cover in our detailed guide for beginners. You can get it through support if you have at least $500 in your account. | 4 299 |
| 18 |  Weak retailer outlooks and resilient drone demand. Premarket overview
↘️ Cooper Companies (COO) -17%. A global manufacturer of contact lenses and products for women’s health and reproductive medicine. The company lowered its EPS and revenue guidance. The board unanimously voted against selling the CooperSurgical business, which appears to have disappointed investors.
↘️ American Eagle Outfitters (AEO) -15%. A major US retailer of casual clothing, footwear, and accessories. Revenue rose 8% to $1.4B, while comparable sales increased 6%. However, gross margin is expected to remain flat year over year this quarter. A sharp shift in fashion trends left some merchandise unable to attract consumers, forcing the company to clear outdated inventory at steep discounts. Total inventory on the balance sheet rose 14%. The flagship American Eagle brand is stagnating, with comparable sales down 1%. US consumers are now more cautious about discretionary spending, weighing on sales of jeans and wardrobe basics.
↘️ Navan (NAVN) -15%. A business travel and expense management platform. The company raised its full-year guidance after narrowing its second-quarter losses and announced the acquisition of BoomPop, an AI-powered event planning platform. Operating expenses jumped 46% year over year to $200.2M. The stock has gained more than 130% over the past six months. Investors may be ready to take profits at current levels.
↗️ AeroVironment (AVAV) +5%. EPS and revenue beat consensus. The defense contractor reaffirmed its full-year fiscal 2027 revenue guidance of $2.125–2.225B. The company expects resilient international demand for unmanned aircraft systems and loitering munitions.
↘️ Macy's (M) -2%. One of the largest and oldest retail chains in the US. Second-quarter results beat Wall Street expectations, but the company’s revenue guidance for next year came in below consensus.
↘️ Shoe Station Group (SHOE) -17%. The footwear retailer reported disappointing second-quarter results and lowered its full-year guidance.

| 19 |  Dividends vs. buybacks
When people hear that a company is “sharing its profits,” most think of dividends. But in the US, the main way companies return capital to shareholders is through share buybacks.
In 2025, US companies spent a record ~$1.04T on buybacks, accounting for about 71% of all share repurchases worldwide. Big Tech and major banks led the way.
Home Depot vs. Lowe’s 🏠
Let’s compare two direct competitors in the home improvement retail market with similar growth rates but different approaches to returning profits to shareholders.
Home Depot: dividend yield of ~2.5%, with more than 60% of earnings returned to shareholders in cash.
Lowe’s: focuses more heavily on buybacks. Its dividend yield is ~1.7%, but aggressive share repurchases have reduced its shares outstanding by 40% over the past decade.
♦️ Over ten years, total shareholder return was +200% for Home Depot and +220% for Lowe’s. Pretty similar — but there are some important differences.
♦️ Dividends are taxed with every payout. Buybacks create taxable capital gains only for investors who sell their shares — there is nothing to pay until the gain is realized.
♦️ During difficult periods, dividends provide actual cash regardless of what the stock price is doing. You can’t live off buybacks.
♦️ Companies often repurchase shares near market peaks and scale back buybacks during crises. A buyback can be quietly suspended, while dividend cuts tend to be painful for the stock. In 2020, both companies followed the textbook: Lowe’s calmly suspended its buyback, while Home Depot continued paying dividends because cutting them would have come at a reputational cost.
Bottom line 📌
Dividend stocks provide cash flow: predictable payouts, lower volatility, and a firmer commitment from the company.
Stocks with large buyback programs can help build wealth over the long term through a shrinking share count and compounding without recurring taxes.
