ARM is both a joy and a problem for Softbank, why? On one side, the stock is Masa Son’s current jewel of the crown, but on the other, #Softbank owns 90% of it, precluding them from liquidating the investment and gathering badly needed cash to repay its mounting debt. I…

WHICH BANKS ARE AT RISK OF GOING BUST IN A LIQUIDITY CRISIS? – EPISODE 2
In September 2023, I addressed for the first time the (nasty) topic of #banks’ balance sheet health in the “This time is not different” post on X. After that, I expanded the analysis to large US and European banks in “WHICH BANKS ARE AT RISK OF GOING BUST IN A…
THE STORY OF CREDIT SUISSE, ARCHEGOS, AND A SWAP THAT “SCREAMS” GME

WHY WE ARE BUILDING SYNNAX, AND WHY CREDIT INTELLIGENCE IS THE FUTURE
As many of you know, I am quite fond of digging deep into corporate financials. However, there is a physical limit to how much a person can cover. Furthermore, it requires a long time and experience to not miss the nuances of increasingly complex financial reporting documents. Add to this…
THE SILENT “BUY NOW PAY LATER” CANCER SPREADING IN THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL SYSTEM
Since my first article on the topic several days ago (WHO ARE TODAY’S “NINJA” SUBPRIME LENDERS?

WHO ARE TODAY’S “NINJA” SUBPRIME LENDERS? SHOCKINGLY… PENSION FUNDS
Over the past few weeks, I have been delving into the “buy now pay later” (BNPL) phenomenon to determine the extent to which this sector could pose a risk to the financial system. Firstly, BNPL is not a “new thing” at all, but rather, it is the evolution of what…
NO, NVIDIA IS ONLY ONE PIECE OF A BIGGER (FRAUDULENT) PUZZLE
Yesterday, I posed this question: “WHAT IF NVIDIA SIMPLY TAGGED ALONG WITH A MICROSOFT AZURE SCAM PLAYBOOK?”. Twenty-four hours later, the company themselves replied to the question (I believe involuntarily), and the answer was “YES”.
