The end of AI data centers coming? (Ad)

Marc Chaikin's Power Gauge system flagged Micron before it soared 970 percent, Celestica before a 6,600 percent run, and Nvidia before it climbed more than 50,000 percent. Now Chaikin says a new AI data center technology using 99 percent less electricity, water, and space could accelerate scientific breakthroughs 360-fold, and one company behind it just flashed bullish in his system.

The SEC Just Opened The Floodgates… (Ad)

The SEC removed the 25 year old Pattern Day Trader rule in June 2026, cutting the minimum to open a trading account to just 2,000 dollars. Small cap stocks like ONFO, CURR, RMSG, TMDE and VSME have already posted gains ranging from 140 percent to 482 percent, some in a single day. Tim Bohen, known for flagging Tesla at 37 and Nvidia at 6.93, believes this shift could trigger the next major small cap breakout.tc pixel
