@PalantirTech

Why #NetZero has opened the biggest TAM ever for @PalantirTech in this decade and next
- COP26 and global activism has already set the world on a path of carbon reporting, mgmt, and compliance
- the biggest challenge is that system relies on polluters themselves to report

- Also the carbon footprint is very complex measure, for the purpose of modeling it is divided into three categories - Scope 1 covers direct emissions from owned or controlled sources.

- Scope 2 covers indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling consumed by the reporting company
- Scope 3 includes all other indirect emissions that occur in a company's value chain.

Why IMO H2 Fuel cell, biofuel, and Synthetic fuels are set to fail in auto sector
- Research on the fuel above is as old as EV itself and all major ICE companies conducted some research over the last 2 decades while keeping min to no R&D in BEV for one simple reason - familiarity

- i.e. in their head after building ICE for decades, they see it as a natural transition if people OPT for low carbon solutions
- The inherent error in this thinking is waiting for low carbon need to emerge and reaction-based strategy instead of frontier pushing strategy

- There was strong reason to act like that as the auto industry over the decades had the least threat from start-ups and organized it in a way where there were many tacit non-verbal agreements on the future path for auto
- Given poor and corrupt motive, it yields to no success

I use options as tools for risk management. Some of my fav options strategies and when do I deploy
1 - LEAP buying - Risk capital OR stop loss amount during the severe drawdowns or elongated period of flat trading as it leads to decline in Imp Vol

2 - Selling covered calls - selling 10-20% OTM covered calls especially on high Imp Vol stocks, during high RSI and, recent highs and before strong resistance level. I exclude stocks that have the tendency to make very strong moves in short term and part of my long-term 10x hold

3 - Collar strategy - Sell CC and Buy Puts on stocks made strong gains in last few days/weeks and near-term headwinds expected -> Sell CC 10-20% OTM, collect premiums and buy 15-25% puts below the price. It's a hedging strategy and can be optimized to minimize cost

IMO Shopify is an excellent company and I understand it is richly valued but the best days are still ahead, it's focused on SMEs and probably gets the best out of them for customers in this landscape. My family has swiftly moved to it instead of Lazada over time

@klarna

When i was doing my DD for @klarna and competition landscape, realized that the TAM for e-commerce and fintech is so large that for the competition is irrelevant as long as you have customer-focused product and aggressive customer and sellers acquisition strategy

This helped me to risk e-commerce and fintech companies slightly differently. I focus on customer growth, total $$$ processed, and capital discipline. Shopify and Klarna both qualify on it. Stripe is on the same boat as well, and I also treat Shopify as fintech player too.

Looking to swing trade few of these plays with stocks and covered calls 1-2 contracts only with April 16 expiry

$AI, $LAZR, $QS, $BLNK, $APPS, $PLUG

Criterion --> 5 billion$ market cap, severally beaten stock, and High Imp. Vol., if needed, can hold for longer and continue CC

The strategy here is simple, buy stocks sell covered calls 10-20% from the current price from April 16 expiry. If assigned collect cash, unless sell covered call again 2 weeks out.

One more day before funds made available by a broker to trade as they keep 4-5 days mandatory on hold after being credited. Moving the trade execution to tomorrow, let's see which of these opportunities are still attractive by tomorrow

$PLTR milestones, I expect in 2021

- PLTR YoY revenue for 2021 >50%
- PLTR YoY client revenues >15% for existing client
- PLTR signs 10+ new contracts in existing sectors
- PLTR enters into 5+ new sectors
- PLTR introduce (at least 1) new and/or updated products by YE 2021

Let me add my PT related expectations about $PLTR if market sentiments keep dominating company and sector influence
- EO April 25-26$
- Q2 end near 30-35$
- YE 40-45$

If we see clear emergence of company and sector sentiment overtaking then we can expect higher prices
- Q2 end near 35$+
- YE 60$+
Fundamental news for the company has been stronger and likely not priced in $PLTR stock
