Continue reading →: The Disinflation Trade Has a New Address: GenomicsI don’t have a thesis about genomics. I have a dataset and this week it started pointing at the same place. The motto here is distrust the story, and let the data tell you where it’s already moving. So I’m not going to open with a narrative about CRISPR curing…

MaxLinear (MXL) surfaced at the top of a momentum-breakout screen across the Nasdaq, a stock that had spent two years dead in the mid-teens and then exploded to ~$100 in a…

No theses about the Fed, no convictions about where oil “should” trade. Just data, oceans of it, and the discipline to let the numbers say something he hadn’t already…

Continue reading →: IREN: The Pricing Power Breadcrumbs Are Starting To Add UpThere is a simple reason I remain constructive on IREN: the company no longer looks like a pure “AI demand is big” story, it is increasingly a story about whether scarce, energized, deployable infrastructure can command better economics in a market that still cannot clear. The bullish case for IREN…

It is not simply “tech up.” And it is not only a short squeeze in forgotten small caps. The pattern running through the strongest performers is more specific: the…

Hi Fren,
Pepe Maltese
I used to trade inside the machine. Now I just raid it.
I publish two high-conviction setups daily — one momentum, one turnaround — filtered through tape structure, volume shifts, and misaligned narratives.
Some of these turn into full trades. A few evolve into deeper stories. The rest get cut.
This isn’t education. This is intelligence.
I don’t run ads. I don’t sell dreams. I track price, watch structure, and call bullshit when the story breaks.
Follow the setups. Fade the noise. Stick it to the man.
