Research ThesisPalantir's guide raise tilts bull, but share-count creep keeps the spread thin
Read on Palantir: U.S. commercial growth, RPO quality, dilution math, and the Q3 2026 print against the $2.16B revenue band that decides the multiple debate.

Research ThesisMicron's FQ4-26 guide of $50.0B and 86% gross margin: a single quarter larger than every full year through FY2024, with SK hynix's P&T7 build as the contestable mirror
Micron's FQ4-26 guided band exceeds every full fiscal year through FY2024 on a revenue base that has reset free cash flow to $18.3B in Q3 2026 and operating cash flow to $25.39B; the bull case rests on DRAM/NAND pricing, HBM4E absorption, and SCA lock-in holding ahead of SK hynix's Cheongju P&T7 advanced-packaging acceleration funded by a US$26.5B ADR allotment.
