Paypal $PYPL: modest growth at reasonable price and aggressive capital allocation.
Failed to increase AKO1L position last week heading into FY Q1 release. I saw momentum in commodities and raw inputs that suggested strong Q1. Market also saw it too, keeping price afloat above ex-div and immune against downturn in US. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G6H9QM0XkAE1Eh1?format=png&name=900x900
Bitcoin Core v30.0 increased OP_RETURN limit to "effectively unlimited". Pieter Wuille (core dev) explains the rationale. My takeaway: Bloat on nodes is lesser evil against hurting decentralization via multiple angles that limits support long term.
@Charles_Lister Parts of #Syria are beginning to see huge improvements in electricity supply, with #Damascus, #Aleppo & #Hama all receiving 16-24hrs of electricity per day in recent days. That's up from 4-6hrs (which has been the norm for yrs) thanks to gas supplies & vast structural repairs. image

Today had time to dig into Block $XYZ Q3 materials. Tried finding a reason for a -10% market reaction. Likely culprit: falling Cash App GPV, despite accelerating growth in Cash App gross profit. It aint macro either. Venmo GPV (TPV) grew just fine. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G5lPrfnWUAAF79D?format=jpg&name=medium https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G5lQZa6WMAA1Rrq?format=jpg&name=medium https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G5lSsS5XYAAfFVl?format=jpg&name=large
So $ALAB earnings did not disappoint. 104% YoY profitable revenue growth; 20% QoQ. Only yesterday learned $AMZN has a stake since 2024.

Holding, would add around $140 if market gives. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G5A5sVFX0AACsLK?format=png&name=large
