We’ve been on the trail of data center-themed stocks, especially after one of our Top 5 Faves, $TSSI, showboated its way from $0.27 at the beginning of the year to a recent high of $5.67, or over 1,900%.

This multibagger move was helped along by a series of circumstances that all fed into the stock’s momentum, from an obvious data center branding strategy showcasing itself as a major contender in the data center services space (with DELL as its largest customer), to a better than expected Q2 earnings report, to last week’s Hindenburg Research short report on $SMCI.

May 2024 was another busy month for us – lots of really great things transpired, not only within our model portfolios universe, but also within the universe of stocks that are pitched to us by our contributors. Our contributors pitch stocks to our network, either through writing articles or video pitches, usually as part of a member-attended monthly open forum or scheduled podcast.

During GeoInvesting’s April 3, 2024 live Open Forum, Maj delved into an artificial intelligence (AI) stock screen to spotlight companies that are engaging with or are significantly impacted by advancements in AI. This screening process is part of GeoInvesting’s attempt to uncover firms positioned to benefit from the “AI revolution”, either through direct application or as beneficiaries of the broader AI trend.

GeoInvesting research contributor Thomas Birnie’s perspective on investing is characterized by a transition towards a more consistent, long-term strategy irrespective of market conditions.

While perusing Twitter, I came across a Twitter post by Clark Square Capital (@ClarkSquareCap) highlighting a list of stocks from the River Oaks Capital H2 2023 Report that included a table of companies that were labeled as either an ‘Excessive Discount’ or ‘Wonderful Business’.
