Some people might  say that the data center industry itself is currently at a crossroads already and in a “hot or not” debate in the sphere of investing. In some corners, there are mixed signals causing investor uncertainty. On one hand, industry leaders like $DELL, $META and $NVDA assert that the market remains incredibly healthy, with NVDA CEO Jensen Huang forecasting that data center infrastructure spending could reach $2 trillion in the next four to five years. 

Reading press releases is one of the most important (and often overlooked) aspects of microcap research. Yet, reviewing them across multiple financial news wires is often cumbersome and time-consuming. To address this challenge, my team and I are in the early innings of developing a specialized tool called PRaaP (Press Releases as a Platform). It centralizes press releases from various sources, provides core data such as share counts, basic fundamentals, and charts, and allows for advanced filtering based on price, market cap, outstanding shares and news category.

Our open forum events often kick off with an introduction, where I talk about some things that are on my mind. February’s introduction was inspired by a conversation I had with a colleague.
Our decision to add a medical device stock to the Run to One Dollar Model Portfolio a couple weeks ago was met with some skepticism from a colleague who questioned our rationale, particularly regarding dilution and profitability metrics. We had just spoken with the management of the company and are fairly impressed with the direction that the company is heading, while acknowledging that there still may be some bumps along the way.

A recent development has positioned a little-known company for what could be a significant transformation. 

With a new customer that has the potential to double the size of the business and improve margins, the company is entering a new market with broad growth opportunities. 

However, we found commentary about additional new customer relationships that should be announced soon. This commentary was not that easy to find and is not in the company’s press releases.

Fresh off our Live Open Forum reviewing December 2024, we are welcoming 2025 with continued optimism that microcaps will continue to perform well, especially in certain industries.  While we didn’t do a full year review as part of the forum, a few days earlier I was able able to sit down with Bobby Kraft of the Plant Microcap Podcast for a focused MicroCap Year-End Review in which we dissected key developments in the microcap space over the past year.
