$Snowflake (SNOW.US)$ is a good example of second derivative:
Story not getting worse and maybe even improving.
Numbers not going down and maybe even improving.
Risk / reward doesn't matter near-term but uninteresting longer-term.
Ran more bullish upside case for kicks (attached). Growing net product rev additions each year despite much larger scale / increased competition, and giving them credit for higher incremental margins (ie efficiency) than they historically have generated.

$PDD Holdings (PDD.US)$ Story is getting worse as growth is slowing (grew 130% yy in Q1 and down to 44% in Q3) and margins are decreasing (32% net margin in Q1 down to 25% in Q3). They pitch it as investment to drive volumes. Bears think they were just over-earning.
Numbers moving sideways to lower.

Only two questions matter near-term: Is the story getting better or worse, and are numbers going up or down? That's it.
For momentum names, in either direction, that's all that matters -> is the story continuing to improve w/ beat and raises, or is the story continuing to erode with misses / guidance reductions.
There is more complexity at extremes (ie second derivatives) that also works -> the story h...

Story likely moves sideways (positive business fundamentals offset by concerns about AI impact on search, and regulatory impacts) while numbers move higher (revenue / profits seem low but FCF seems high).
Risk / reward remains decent even w/ regulatory overhang. I am denting the multiple by 10% to account for potential loss of 10% of profits. Other point I wo...

3. Big tech’s willingness to finance it
Industry veterans, utilities, and the people building nuclear companies know the challenges ahead. Nuclear power will be a hard problem to solve.
The question comes down to economics and engineering, i.e., how can we make nuclear energy affordable enough to j...
