ALCHEMY of 5%: BMNR ranked #81 by 5D avg daily

As of September 7, 2026 at 2:00pm ET, the Company's crypto holdings are comprised of 5,929,198 ETH at $2,495 per ETH (per CoinbaseNASDAQ: COIN), 211 Bitcoin (BTC), $180 million stake in Beast Industries, $91 million stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) ("moonshots") and total cash & marketable securities of $593 million. Bitmine's ETH holdings are 4.9% of the ETH supply (of 122.0 million ETH).

"Since June 30th, 4 of the top 21 best performing stocks in the Russell 1000 are crypto-related equities. The outperformance is reflective of the fact that Ethereum is the best performing macro asset in Q3 so far. In our view, fund managers benchmarked to the Russell 1000 need to consider whether they have sufficient exposure to crypto given this group's outsized contribution to Russell 1000 gains this quarter. Notably, Bitmine's common stock is the 4th best performing with a gain of 99% compared to 3% for the Russell 1000 benchmark," stated Thomas "Tom" Lee, Chairman of Bitmine.

Tom DeMark, founder of DeMark Analytics and a capital markets advisor to Bitmine is expecting ETH to make a sharp upward move in coming weeks. According to Tom DeMark, "In August, ETH moved sideways without a downside break and the 12-day metric expired, which implies a renewal of the upside move. We believe this further supports the continuation of the prior uptrend. We expect, last week's sharp one-day rally was a likely preview of the pending advance."

"As we enter the final month of calendar Q3 2026, ETH is the best performing macro asset during the quarter, outperforming the S&P 500 by 5,430bp through last Friday. In fact, the top 3 performing assets since June 30th are ETH, BTC and SOL," stated Lee. "We believe this sets the stage for institutions to add to their crypto holdings given the substantial outperformance of crypto versus other macro assets in calendar Q3 so far."

"We believe there are multiple positive catalysts as we head into the final months of 2026," stated Lee. "These include the upcoming CLARITY Act vote scheduled in mid-September. Additionally, Korean investors have again started buying crypto and rotating away from AI stocks. The 4-year cycle is bottoming within the next few weeks in our view. And this sets the stage for what we expect to be sizable institutional participation in buying crypto in the final months of 2026, especially given the tailwinds of tokenization and Agentic-AI."

"This ETH/BTC ratio has moved up during crypto bull cycles, driven by increasing use of Ethereum relative to Bitcoin. These prior cycles were fueled by ICOs (2017-2018), NFTs (2020-2021), and stablecoins (2025). In this upcoming crypto cycle, we see the ETH/BTC ratio rising, driven by Wall Street tokenizing on the blockchain and by agentic-AI using blockchains," continued Lee.

"Over the past week, we acquired 28,086 ETH. Bitmine's track record of consistent buying of crypto is unmatched by any public company in the world. Bitmine has bought ETH each and every week since the inception of the ETH Treasury Strategy on June 30, 2025," stated Lee.

On July 16, 2026, Bitmine released the latest Chairman's Message (link here) for July 2026. The title of the Message is "ETH is the cure for the Uncanny Valley of Wealth."

Earlier in 2026, Bitmine launched MAVAN (the Made in America VAlidator Network), the institutional-grade staking platform. While MAVAN was originally developed to support Bitmine's own Ethereum treasury, MAVAN has expanded to serve institutional investors, custodians, and ecosystem partners seeking best-in-class staking infrastructure. A portion of Bitmine's ETH is already staked on the MAVAN platform.

As of September 7, 2026, Bitmine total staked ETH stands at 5,067,309 ($12.6 billion at $2,495 per ETH). "Bitmine has staked more ETH than other entities in the world. At scale (when Bitmine's ETH is fully staked by MAVAN and its staking partners), the projected ETH staking reward is $386 million on an annualized basis (using 2.61% 7-day BMNR yield)," stated Lee.

"Annualized staking revenues are now projected at $330 million. And this 5.1 million ETH is 85% of the 5.93 million ETH held by Bitmine. Bitmine's own staking operations generated a 7-day yield of 2.61% (annualized)," continued Lee.

Bitmine is one of the most widely traded stocks in the US. According to data from Fundstrat, the stock has traded average daily dollar volume of $1.10 billion (5-day average, as of September 4, 2026), ranking #81 in the US, behind Intuit Inc. (rank #80) and ahead of TJX Companies, Inc. (rank #82) among 5,704 US-listed stocks (statista.com and Fundstrat research).

Bitmine's crypto holdings reign as the #1 Ethereum treasury and #2 global treasury, behind Strategy Inc., which reportedly owns 840,447 BTC valued at approximately $66 billion. Bitmine remains the largest ETH treasury in the world. 

Bitmine management believes the GENIUS Act and the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) Project Crypto are as transformational to financial services in 2026 as the US action on August 15, 1971, which ended the Bretton Woods system and took the U.S. dollar off the gold standard 55 years ago. This 1971 event was the catalyst for the modernization of Wall Street, creating the iconic Wall Street titans and financial and payment rails of today. These proved to be better investments than gold.

Sweetwater 1 provides 1,400MW and Sweetwater 2 adds 600MW Summary

ERCOT conditionally classified IREN's 2GW Sweetwater Hub as Base Load, with 300MW under construction for late 2027.

IREN Limited IREN rose 6.33% intraday after saying its 2GW Sweetwater Hub in Texas had been conditionally included in ERCOT's Batch Zero process as Base Load. Sweetwater 1 accounts for 1,400MW and Sweetwater 2 for 600MW, part of a global development portfolio the company puts above 5GW.

IREN said ERCOT's classifications remain conditional and subject to ongoing approval processes. The high-voltage substation at Sweetwater 1 was energized earlier this year and 300MW of gross data center capacity is under construction, with delivery targeted for the fourth quarter of 2027.

Other large-scale projects in IREN's pipeline also made Batch Zero. The company said it will fold those into its announced development portfolio once the relevant grid connection agreements are signed.

USA Rare Earth (USAR +0.28%) stock recorded strong double-digit gains in August. The company's share price climbed 19.2%, according to data from S&P Global Market Intelligence, in a month that played host to a 2.6% increase for the S&P 500's level and a 3.9% gain for the Nasdaq Composite.

Along with the bullish backdrop for the broader market, the company also published its second-quarter results and announced the completion of an upsized $1.55 billion capitalization of the special purpose vehicle (SPV) backed by the U.S. government to support its acquisition of Brazilian rare-earth mining specialist Serra Verde. While the company's Q2 report didn't do anything to push the stock higher, the SPV announcement did boost the stock -- and investors have gotten more good news in September.

USA Rare Earth's Q2 report wasn't exciting USA Rare Earth published its Q2 results on Aug. 10, and the report didn't arrive with much for investors to get excited about. The company reported a non-GAAP (adjusted) loss of $0.15 per share on sales of $5.82 million in the period. The performance fell short of the average Wall Street targets, which called for an adjusted loss of $0.13 on sales of roughly $6.5 million.

USA Rare Earth is still in a relatively early stage of ramping its business, so the sales and earnings misses in Q2 didn't look particularly significant. On the other hand, the company didn't deliver the kinds of scaling updates that investors were looking for -- and the stock lost ground following the earnings release. The good news was that investors didn't have to wait long for positive developments.

The Serra Verde deal looks to be transformative On Aug. 24, USA Rare Earth published a press release announcing the finalization of its SPV deal with the U.S. Department of War to support its acquisition of Serra Verde. Through the arrangement, the Department of War agreed to provide a direct $750 million investment in the SPV, the facilitation of a $500 million debt facility from a tier-1 institutional bank, and a five-year purchasing contract worth at least $300 million. In short, the deal helped secure both financial support and a rare earth mineral purchasing contract from the U.S. government contingent on the finalization of the Serra Verde acquisition.

USA Rare Earth then published a press release on Sept. 4 announcing that it had completed its roughly $2.8 billion acquisition of Serra Verde. When USA Rare Earth announced the acquisition in April, it said that Serra Verde was expected to achieve annualized earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) by the end of 2027 and that the combined corporate entity was expected to generate roughly $1.8 billion in EBITDA by 2030. The completion of the deal has transformed USA Rare Earth's financial profile, and it positions the company to rapidly scale in the critical minerals space.

What this transaction means for investorsThe Core Scientific stock price has performed well over the last year, climbing 34.4%. In comparison, the S&P 500 is up 18.1% over the same period. With a strong performance like that, it may be common to see some executives sell shares. But an insider buying into a rising stock price is a bullish signal for shareholders, as it indicates that Weiss expects shares to keep climbing. His purchase of 7,000 shares adds to his substantial holdings that now total nearly 260,000.

In addition to Weiss's purchase, another bullish signal for Core Scientific's stock price is how analysts view the company. Out of 18 who cover the stock, 94% rate it a buy, while 6% rate it a hold, according to CNN. From that group, the median one-year price target is $36, representing a gain of 92.2% from today's price ($18.73). The highest price target of $55 is even more bullish, representing a 193.6% gain. And even the lowest price target, $28, would still represent a gain of nearly 50%. With a rising stock price, insider buying, and bullish analyst outlooks, there are a lot of positive signals about where the Core Scientific stock price could head next.

Sandisk Corporation remains competitively positioned to benefit from the accelerating AI-driven NAND flash supercycle, reinforced by recent model and hardware advancements from Meta, OpenAI and Kioxia. The agentic inference shift is driving a rethink in next-generation AI models and architectures, with increasing NAND content closer to compute compounding already strong storage demand. This is corroborated by industry's expectation for agentic inference tokens to reach 3,600 quadrillion by 2030, underscoring the durability of the AI NAND supercycle despite consumer weakness.

Sandisk Corporation remains a Strong Buy, with robust fundamentals and disciplined NAND supply positioning it for long-term outperformance versus DRAM-focused peers. SNDK's price floors and contracted revenues provide significant downside protection, with 54% of annual revenues secured at minimum pricing over the next four years. Even in a severe market downturn, SNDK's valuation appears above current levels, with upside remaining if supply shocks are less severe than modeled.

This disparity indicates a potential margin of safety of 32.9% for investors considering the stock. The GF Value™ represents GuruFocus' proprietary intrinsic-value estimate, taking into account historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance expectations. Given the current valuation, there may be an attractive opportunity for value-oriented investors, though caution is warranted as the GF Valuation label suggests it could be a possible value trap. This warning indicates that while the stock appears undervalued, it is important to consider broader market conditions and company-specific risks before making investment decisions.

How Does FUTU's Valuation Compare to Its History?MetricCurrentHistoricalP/E (TTM)11.6x17.4xForward P/E10.2xN/AFUTU's current P/E ratio of 11.6x is 33% below its 5-year median P/E of 17.4x, indicating that the stock is trading at a discount compared to its historical valuation metrics.

What Does FUTU's GF Score™ Tell Us?The GF Score™ is a composite measure that evaluates a company's financial health, profitability, growth prospects, valuation, and momentum. With a GF Score™ of 80/100, FUTU demonstrates strong performance overall, with notable strengths in profitability and growth, scoring 9/10 and 10/10 respectively. However, the valuation rank is weaker at 4/10, indicating that the current price may not reflect the company's growth potential optimally, while the momentum rank at 2/10 suggests recent price weakness.

MetricRatingGF Score™80/100Financial Strength4/10Profitability9/10Growth10/10Valuation4/10Momentum2/10Overall, FUTU's strong profitability and growth scores suggest a solid operational foundation, while the lower financial strength and valuation ranks indicate potential concerns regarding its current financial position and market perception. This divergence suggests that while FUTU has the capacity for growth, investors should be cautious about the current valuation.

What Are Gurus and Insiders Doing with FUTU?Currently, 3 gurus hold shares of FUTU, with equal activity in adding and trimming positions in recent quarters. This mixed signal from gurus reflects a cautious sentiment towards the stock, as some are looking to reduce their exposure while others are affirming their investment. Notably, there have been no insider transactions in the past 12 months, which may indicate a lack of confidence from management regarding the stock's near-term prospects or a strategic decision to hold their positions.

What This Means for InvestorsBased on the GF Value™ of $175.05 and the current trading price of $117.50, FUTU appears to be undervalued, presenting an opportunity for potential investors. However, the caveats of a possible value trap, coupled with mixed signals from guru activity and a weak momentum rank, suggest that investors should proceed with caution.

U.S. Bankruptcy Court approves the sale of the Jefferson County Metallurgical Complex to Silver Bow Mining under Section 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

BUTTE, Mont.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Silver Bow Mining Corp. (NYSE American: SBMT) ("Silver Bow Mining" or the "Company") announces that on September 4, 2026, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Montana entered an order approving the sale of specified assets of Montana Tunnels Mining, Inc. referred to as the Jefferson County Metallurgical Complex (the “Complex”) to Silver Bow Mining and its wholly owned subsidiary, Silver Bow Tunnels Corp., pursuant to Sections 105(a) and 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Company has also completed the initial closing (the "Initial Closing") contemplated by the definitive asset purchase agreement (the “Definitive Agreement”) announced by the Company on August 24, 2026.

"Bankruptcy Court approval and completion of the Initial Closing mark an important step toward securing strategic processing infrastructure in Montana," said Travis Naugle, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Silver Bow Mining.

Share Prior to the Initial Closing, the Company had funded approximately US$28.58 million into an escrow account to satisfy specified creditor obligations associated with the acquired assets, including approximately US$4.27 million in respect of amounts owing to Jefferson County, Montana and approximately US$20.78 million in respect of specified obligations owing to the Montana Department of Environmental Quality. Release of funds to all creditors will occur over the course of a few days as payment instructions are finalized. As part of the Initial Closing, the Company has delivered instructions to the escrow agent to release funds to satisfy specified creditor obligations. In consideration of the direction to release the funds from escrow, Montana Goldfields, Inc. issued the Company a senior secured note, guaranteed by Montana Tunnels Mining, Inc. and secured against real property interests, fixtures and tangible personal property at the Complex.

The Initial Closing does not constitute the transfer of ownership of the Complex to Silver Bow Mining. The Company expects to acquire ownership of the Complex at the final closing contemplated by the Definitive Agreement (the “Final Closing”), subject to the satisfaction or waiver of applicable customary closing conditions, including the approval of the shareholders of the Company of the issuance of common shares underlying contingent value rights and the approval of the NYSE American stock exchange, as detailed in the Company’s August 24, 2026 news release.

"Bankruptcy Court approval and completion of the Initial Closing mark an important step toward securing strategic processing infrastructure in Montana," said Travis Naugle, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Silver Bow Mining. "Our primary focus remains advancing the Rainbow Block, while we work through the remaining approvals and undertake the technical, regulatory and site work required to evaluate the Complex and its potential role in our longer-term development plans. We believe the transaction can provide meaningful flexibility as we pursue responsible growth and long-term value for our shareholders and Montana stakeholders."

SpaceX (NASDAQ:SPCX) carries a roughly $2 trillion valuation on the promise that its rockets can be flown and reused like commercial airliners. Pivotal Research Group is betting that the promise will be fulfilled. 

The firm initiated coverage on SpaceX with a Buy rating and a $220 price target in a Tuesday note from analyst Jeffrey Wlodarczak.

SPCX stock is climbing Tuesday. See the real-time price action here.  The bullish call comes with a major caveat: nearly the entire investment thesis hinges on a single unresolved engineering challenge.

“A successful investment case in SpaceX at the current ~$2 trillion EV rests almost entirely on a single admittedly massive engineering bottleneck,” Wlodarczak wrote, per CNBC. “Starship reusability (i.e. 20-50 flights per Starship with relatively inexpensive and quick refurbishment/redeployment).”

In other words, SpaceX’s next leg of growth — and the valuation Pivotal Research is underwriting — depends on the company proving it can fly the same Starship vehicle dozens of times with fast, cheap turnarounds between launches.

A Binary Outcome for the StockWlodarczak was blunt about how binary the outcome could be for the stock. 

“Our $220 target is a call on reuse 20-50 flights per vehicle, cheap refurb, fast turnaround,” he said. “If that is solved, the rest of the model can happen. If it is not, SPCX is a different and much smaller company.”

That framing puts Starship’s reusability economics at the center of the bull case. If SpaceX can crack the reuse problem, Wlodarczak’s model suggests launch costs could fall toward levels competitive with terrestrial freight, unlocking a far larger addressable market for the company. 

If it can’t, the current $2 trillion enterprise value looks stretched relative to a company Wlodarczak says would be “different and much smaller.”

How Pivotal’s Target Stacks UpPivotal Research’s $220 target lands slightly below the broader Street consensus. The average analyst price target for SpaceX currently sits near $226, according to Benzinga data, suggesting Wlodarczak’s call is bullish but not the most aggressive on the Street.

The initiation also arrives just ahead of a notable overhang: roughly 319 million SpaceX shares are set to become unlocked on Wednesday, a potential source of near-term share supply that investors will be watching closely alongside the Starship reuse narrative.

Space Exploration Technologies (SPCX +3.73%) went public on June 12, and its stock quickly soared to a record high of $225. However, it has since plummeted by 34% and closed at $147.95 last Friday, Sept. 4.

SpaceX was founded by Elon Musk in 2002 to reduce the cost of space travel. It now has three commercial businesses spanning space transportation, satellite internet connectivity, and artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, and Musk is predicting they will generate significant revenue growth over the next few years.

Although SpaceX stock is still technically expensive, should investors take the opportunity to buy the recent dip in September?

SpaceX is chasing a $26.5 trillion opportunity SpaceX uses its Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy reusable rockets to launch over 2,500 tons worth of commercial payloads into orbit each year on behalf of businesses and government organizations. The company already has a 90% market share in this industry, but it believes demand could grow to 10 million tons as enterprises scramble to send advanced satellites and AI infrastructure into space. So there is still plenty of room for growth.

But with an addressable market of $370 billion right now, that isn't SpaceX's most valuable opportunity by a long shot. The company estimates there is a whopping $1.6 trillion market for satellite internet connectivity, and it's still very early days. SpaceX has launched around 10,200 Starlink satellites into orbit, which were beaming internet access to 12 million customers here on Earth as of June 30. That number doubled from 6 million in the year-ago period.

But then there is the AI market, which could be worth $26.5 trillion across infrastructure, enterprise applications, and consumer subscriptions. SpaceX acquired Elon Musk's start-up xAI earlier this year, which came with a series of centralized data centers such as Colossus and Colossus II. The company is using this infrastructure to further develop its Grok AI models, but it's also renting spare computing capacity to other businesses, including Anthropic, Reflection AI, and Alphabet.

In the future, SpaceX wants to launch solar-powered AI infrastructure into orbit, where it won't need expensive energy solutions or complex cooling systems. The company developed a new satellite called Starmind, which uses a variant of Nvidia's Vera Rubin AI data center systems, and it will beam data back to Earth via the existing Starlink network.

No other company has an established distribution network comparable to Starlink, so SpaceX would enter the space-based AI infrastructure business with a massive head start over the competition. It's one of the key reasons why Musk believes the company could achieve $1 trillion in annual revenue by 2030.

SpaceX stock might struggle to post gains in the near term SpaceX generated $7.8 billion in total revenue during the second quarter of 2026 (ended June 30), a 92% increase from the year-ago period. It was broken down as follows:

SpaceX Segment

Q2 Revenue

Revenue Growth (Year Over Year)

Space

$0.962 billion

29%

Connectivity

$4.291 billion

66%

AI

$2.561 billion

247%

Data source: SpaceX.

While connectivity contributed the most revenue in Q2, the AI segment is rapidly catching up thanks to its blistering growth rate. In fact, chief financial officer Bret Johnsen thinks the AI business could achieve annual run rate revenue of $100 billion by the end of 2026, due to the enormous demand for computing capacity. With that kind of growth, Musk's $1 trillion revenue forecast for 2030 doesn't seem so far-fetched.

But valuing a company based on its forward projections can be risky, because there is no guarantee they will come to fruition. What's known for sure is that SpaceX generated $23 billion in total revenue over the last four quarters, so based on its market capitalization of $2 trillion, its stock has a sky-high price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of 86.9. That makes it 14 times as expensive as the Nasdaq-100 index, which has a P/S ratio of 6.2.

Simply put, SpaceX looks heavily overvalued compared to a basket of America's largest technology stocks. Assuming that the company will deliver $105 billion in revenue during 2027 as Wall Street expects (according to Yahoo Finance), its forward P/S ratio is 19. While that is a far more reasonable valuation, it's still elevated relative to the broader market.

So, should investors buy SpaceX stock this month? The answer depends on their time horizon. Those seeking strong gains over the next year or two might be left disappointed, but those who are willing to hold the stock beyond 2030 could earn a very nice return, particularly if Musk's trillion-dollar revenue forecast becomes a reality.

EchoStar (NASDAQ:ECHO) shares got a boost Tuesday after UBS resumed coverage of the stock with a Buy rating and a $150 price target, sending the stock up 4.2%.

The UBS upgrade reflects EchoStar's transformation from wireless operator to investment vehicle, following the company's sale of 75-80% of its spectrum portfolio for roughly $43 billion.EchoStar is set to hold a 2% stake in SpaceX, equal to about 262 million shares, once its pending spectrum transaction closes. The deal is expected to close in November 2027 and has already received FCC approval. UBS valued that stake at roughly $39 billion, or $110 per EchoStar share, based on the current SpaceX stock price, and at $55 billion, or $156 per share, using the firm's $210 SpaceX price target.

UBS noted EchoStar was granted the SpaceX shares at a roughly $11 billion valuation before SpaceX's IPO.

The firm valued EchoStar's remaining spectrum holdings at approximately $11 billion based on recent transaction precedents.

UBS said EchoStar's remaining AWS-3 holdings are the most valuable of the group given their compatibility with existing carrier infrastructure, while its 700 MHz E-Block holdings align most closely with spectrum held by AT&T and its CBRS holdings align with spectrum held by Verizon and cable operators.

Analysts believe EchoStar's TV and Hughes businesses are worth $6 billion combined (though they carry $15 billion in debt), while its Boost wireless business is worth about $2 billion.

UBS said cash proceeds of approximately $31.5 billion from EchoStar's spectrum deals with AT&T and SpaceX, before taxes, will likely be used to repay debt and fund potential future investments in the telecom, aerospace and defense industries.

Space Exploration Technologies Corp (NASDAQ:SPCX) has weathered two rounds of insider share unlocks since its record-breaking June initial public offering, and the stock is holding well above where it traded during either event. 

Shares closed at $153.47 on Tuesday, sitting comfortably above the $135 IPO price and about 32% below the intraday peak of $225.64 hit days after the June 12 debut, per Benzinga Pro data.  

First Unlock: A Rally Instead of a RoutSpaceX’s first share unlock test came Aug. 6, when 911.5 million shares held by employees and early investors became eligible for trading, more than doubling the company’s public float. 

The stock had closed the prior session at $108.27, a fresh post-IPO low tied to an earnings report showing capex at more than double revenue. Instead of caving to the new supply, shares rallied. 

Shares catapulted 16% higher that Friday and finished the week at $133.11. The Wall Street Journal described the reversal as proof that SpaceX “true believers” were propelling shares past the lockup. 

Read Next

Second Unlock: A Wobble, Not a BreakA second, smaller unlock followed Aug. 20, when roughly 319 million additional shares came free under the staggered schedule laid out in SpaceX’s prospectus.  

The stock wobbled but avoided a lasting slide, and by Aug. 10 shares had already closed above the IPO price for the first time in weeks, CNBC noted. Argus Research upgraded the stock to Buy shortly after the first unlock, arguing the shares merited the call partly on CEO Elon Musk‘s track record running Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA). 

Third Unlock: This WednesdayRound three looms larger. Roughly 700 million additional shares will become eligible in September, more than double the size of the Aug. 20 release and approaching the scale of the first unlock. 

CNBC pointed to Wednesday’s share release as one of two remaining supply events still keeping the stock “cheap” relative to Wall Street’s price targets, with Oppenheimer at $280 and JPMorgan at $240. 

More tranches follow close behind, with further releases scheduled on Sept. 24, Oct. 9, and Oct. 24, before the full 180-day lockup expires Dec. 8. Musk‘s stake, the largest single block, stays locked until June 2027.

Whether insiders treat Wednesday’s tranche as an exit ramp, or investors again absorb the float without flinching, could shape SpaceX’s next chapter as a newly public, AI-heavy rocket company.

In the second quarter, an exciting new investment opportunity emerged: Space Exploration Technologies (SPCX +3.73%), commonly known as SpaceX, completed its record initial public offering. And that meant everyone from small retail investors to billionaires had the opportunity to easily buy shares of the company on the market as of June 12.

Demand during and post-IPO was high, with the operation raising more than $85 billion after the exercise of an overallotment option and the stock price climbing in its first days of trading. And in the month of June, several billionaires, including Appaloosa Management's David Tepper and Coatue Management's Philippe Laffont, bought shares of this industrial and technology giant. Should you follow? Let's find out.

A mix of growth businessesSo, first, a quick look at why investors were so excited about this particular IPO. SpaceX offers a unique and interesting mix of growth-oriented businesses -- artificial intelligence (AI), space, and satellite-based connectivity. Meanwhile, the company is led by Elon Musk, known for his commitment to innovation and accomplishing what's never been done before. These two elements appeal to certain growth investors, and that helped stir up excitement as SpaceX prepared for its market debut.

All of this also attracted the attention -- and investment dollars -- of billionaires. A quick look through recent 13Fs shows that a number of them piled into SpaceX stock in the second quarter. (Managers of more than $100 million must report their latest moves on a quarterly basis to regulators on Form 13F.)

Billionaires buying SpaceX include:

David Tepper of Appaloosa Management bought 225,000 SpaceX shares, giving it a 0.5% weight in the portfolio and a ranking of 22.Philippe Laffont of Coatue Management bought 18,561,780 SpaceX shares. It has a 6.52% weight in the portfolio and is the fourth-biggest position.Michael Platt of BlueCrest Capital Management bought 1,417,000 SpaceX shares. That makes it the portfolio's No. 2 position with a weight of 7.98%.Chase Coleman of Tiger Global Management bought 375,000 SpaceX shares, and that represents 0.27% of the portfolio and a ranking of 34.So, clearly, the SpaceX story is winning over some of the world's most successful investors. Now, let's consider whether you should follow these investing giants into the stock.

It's important to note that, while we may learn a lot from billionaire investors and gain inspiration, we shouldn't follow all of their moves. Even the billionaires themselves often make completely different decisions -- with one buying a particular stock while another sells it. This is because each individual may have a different strategy, investment horizon, and feelings about risk -- and this is just to mention a few elements that guide investing decisions. As a result, what may be right for certain billionaires may not be the best move for you or me.

Considering the riskNow, let's return to our question: Considering all of this, should you follow this wave of billionaires into the SpaceX story? This depends on our comfort with risk. SpaceX carries plenty of it at the moment.

So far, its big breadwinner is the Starlink connectivity unit, which brought in $4 billion in revenue in the latest quarter and $1.6 billion in operating income. But the other two businesses, though generating revenue growth, each delivered an operating loss. And the AI business in particular requires enormous investment, to the tune of $15 billion in capital expenditures in the second quarter alone. To put this into perspective, SpaceX's total revenue for the quarter came in at $7.8 billion.

SpaceX represents enormous opportunity, but to reach its goals, it must invest heavily -- and it's also key to remember that many of these goals, such as developing data centers in space, rely on technology that hasn't been fully proven yet.

All of this means that, if you're an aggressive investor with a well-diversified portfolio, you might consider following the billionaires and getting in on this stock early -- but for most of us, it's a better idea to watch this stock from the sidelines until visibility improves.

More Apple News Here are the key news stories impacting Apple this week:

Positive Sentiment: Apple is expected to unveil its first foldable iPhone, alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, at John Ternus’s first major keynote as CEO. Analysts at Morgan Stanley estimate the foldable could represent a roughly $14 billion revenue opportunity if Apple can stimulate premium-device demand. Apple Faces Its Biggest iPhone Test in Years Positive Sentiment: Recent iPhone sales growth of more than 20% for three consecutive quarters, a large installed base and potential on-device artificial-intelligence features provide a favorable backdrop for the launch.

Tim Cook Delivered a 2,720% Total Return Neutral Sentiment: Apple’s broad ecosystem and substantial cash generation remain important supports for the investment case, but the stock’s premium valuation means the market may already be pricing in a successful product cycle and strong demand. Negative Sentiment: KeyBanc warned that rising memory and component costs could force Apple to raise prices. Broad price increases could cause “sticker shock” and reduce unit volumes, while selective increases could pressure gross margins.

Apple just delivered its strongest June quarter ever, and one investor sees a clear path to $400 that gets easier to defend with every earnings report. Here is what the numbers reveal that Wall Street might still be underpricing.

This post may contain links from our sponsors and affiliates, and Flywheel Publishing may receive compensation for actions taken through them.

I keep hitting the buy button on Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL | AAPL Price Prediction) because the math on a re-rating toward $400 keeps getting easier to defend, and every quarter Tim Cook hands me another reason to add. Shares closed at $319.97 on September 4, 2026, up 33.94% over the past year, and I am still adding.

Why I Keep Coming Back to the Same Ticker My thesis is simple. Apple runs a dual-engine business where a $54 billion hardware quarter now travels with a services annuity that keeps setting records, and management is retiring the share count fast enough to lift per-share earnings even in a flat quarter. That combination is what I keep paying for.

The Q3 FY26 report backs it up. Revenue landed at $109.42B, up 16.36% YoY, EPS came in at $2.02 vs $1.89 consensus, and that was the 9th straight EPS beat. iPhone revenue was $54.25B against $44.58B a year prior, and Services printed $30.74B. Cook called it “our strongest June quarter ever”, and this time the superlative fit.

Three Receipts That Keep Me Adding First, the Services engine. A 75.6% Services gross margin on $30.74B of quarterly revenue is a software business hiding inside a hardware wrapper, and paid subscriptions surpassed 1.5 billion. That is recurring income that compounds.

Second, the capital return program is doing the heavy lifting on per-share math. The board authorized a new $100 billion buyback and a 4% dividend increase in Q2 FY26. Apple has already repurchased $62.094B in the first nine months of FY26, on top of $90.711B in FY25 buybacks. The quarterly dividend sits at $0.27.

Third, the installed base of 2.5 billion+ active devices is the moat. Return on equity of 171.42% and return on invested capital of 53.35% tell you what that base does to profitability.

Path to $400 Written in the Estimates Analysts now model $9.5329 in FY27 EPS across 39 analysts. Our internal five-year base case models a final price of $508.47, with a bull case of $518.38 and a bear case ending at $358.68. That is the asymmetry I want in a core retirement holding.

Risk I Will Not Wave Away Q3 gross margin got a one-time lift from tariff refunds worth roughly two percentage points and 11 cents of EPS. Strip that out and next year’s comparisons get harder. Memory pricing is what Cook flagged as “a 100-year flood on the memory pricing with exponential increases in memory prices”. Valuation is rich too, with a P/FCF of 47 and a yield of only 0.33%.

My thesis holds. Apple guided September-quarter revenue growth of 9% to 11% even with a 2.5 percentage point FX headwind, and iPhone and Mac demand is running so hot that Cook called the supply crunch “a demand forecast issue”. That is the problem I want a company I own to have.

Why the Buy Button Stays Active Services keep compounding, the buyback keeps shrinking the float, the installed base keeps feeding both. When a business earns $29.79B in a quarter and hands back $33 billion to shareholders, patience is the only edge I need. I plan to keep accumulating until $400 stops looking like a floor.

Longtime Apple executive Phil Schiller reportedly stepped away from running the App Store partly because he wanted no involvement with a push by the tech giant’s new leadership to squeeze more money from the lucrative platform.

Schiller, 66, a veteran of both the Steve Jobs and Tim Cook eras, remained in charge of the App Store and Apple’s splashy product-launch events after stepping down as the company’s marketing chief and becoming an Apple Fellow in 2020.

But new Apple CEO John Ternus and services boss Eddy Cue are looking for ways to wring greater profits and more repeat revenue from the App Store, Bloomberg reported over the weekend.

Longtime Apple executive Phil Schiller reportedly stepped away from running the App Store partly because he wanted no involvement with efforts to squeeze more revenue from the platform. SXSW Conference & Festivals via Getty Images Schiller, by contrast, believed that pushing the App Store harder for profits would only inflame tensions with developers and governments, according to Bloomberg.

The disagreement never erupted into an internal clash, but Schiller reportedly shunned the strategy.

The Bloomberg report sheds new light on Schiller’s decision to relinquish oversight of the App Store, a business estimated to generate more than $30 billion a year that has faced mounting pressure from regulators and developers.

Schiller’s latest concerns echoed objections he privately raised over Apple’s efforts to collect commissions on outside purchases during its long-running legal battle with “Fortnite” maker Epic Games.

New Apple CEO John Ternus (pictured) and services chief Eddy Cue want to find ways to boost profits and recurring revenue from the App Store, according to Bloomberg. AFP via Getty Images In 2023, he opposed Apple’s plan to slap a 27% commission on purchases made on developers’ websites after users followed links from their apps, according to court records.

Schiller said internally that he had “many issues with the commission concept” and made clear he was “not on team commission/fee,” according to the records.

Apple’s chief financial officer, Luca Maestri, and other finance executives favored charging the commission, while Schiller opposed it and later testified that collecting fees from developers could damage Apple’s relationship with them.

Former Apple CEO Tim Cook sided with finance executives over Schiller in a 2023 dispute over charging commissions on purchases made outside the App Store, according to court records. AP Photo/Annie Mulligan CEO Tim Cook ultimately sided with Maestri’s camp. The decision later came back to haunt Apple.

US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers ruled in April of last year that Apple had willfully violated an earlier injunction stemming from the Epic case. In her blistering order, the judge singled out Schiller as having pushed Apple to comply with the injunction.

“Cook chose poorly,” Rogers wrote of the CEO’s decision to side with the finance team over Schiller.

Rogers held Apple in civil contempt, ordered it to stop collecting commissions on purchases made through external links and required the tech giant to cover Epic’s legal fees stemming from the contempt fight.

A federal appeals court upheld the contempt finding in December 2025 but narrowed Rogers’ punishment, ruling that Apple could potentially charge developers a fee tied to legitimate costs and intellectual property used in facilitating outside purchases.

The episode marked a striking shift for an executive who had spent years publicly defending Apple’s tight control over the App Store.

“Fortnite” maker Epic Games challenged Apple’s App Store rules in a legal battle that eventually led a federal judge to hold Apple in civil contempt. REUTERS Schiller publicly argued in 2020 that the marketplace was designed around “one set of rules for everybody,” and defended Apple’s commissions by pointing to the company’s investments in app distribution, developer tools, security, privacy and payments.

But he had questioned the size of Apple’s cut as far back as 2011.

In an internal email disclosed in the Epic litigation, Schiller floated whether Apple should “ratchet down from 70/30 to 75/25 or even 80/20,” in terms of the split of profits between developers and Apple, if the App Store surpassed $1 billion in annual profit and could maintain that level.

After Schiller formally took charge of the App Store in 2015, Apple began introducing lower commission rates for some developers.

In 2016, the company cut its take on subscription revenue from 30% to 15% after customers remained subscribed for more than a year. Apple later introduced a program charging qualifying small developers a 15% commission.

Schiller nevertheless remained a tough enforcer of the App Store’s rules. The Post has sought comment from Apple.

Apple is expected to introduce a new line of foldable iPhones at their upcoming launch event, which is also expected to be the beginning of a bigger product overhaul for the company. CNBC's Mackenzie Sigalos joins 'The Exchange' to discuss what to look for in Apple's launch event.
