SPLK | Splunk & CiscoShares of Splunk were up 21.3% as of 1:10 p.m ET Thursday after the data analytics and observability specialist agreed to be acquired by Cisco Systems
More specifically, on Thursday morning Splunk announced it has entered into a definitive agreement under which Cisco will acquire the company for $157 per share in cash a roughly 31% premium from Wednesday's closing price. The deal places an equity value on Splunk of approximately $28 billion.
"We're excited to bring Cisco and Splunk together," said Cisco CEO Chuck Robbins in a statement. "Our combined capabilities will drive the next generation of AI-enabled security and observability."
Splunk, for its part, was already up nearly 40% year to date leading into the announcement, helped by a post-earnings pop last month after the company delivered significantly stronger-than-expected fiscal second-quarter results. At the time, Splunk CEO Gary Steele highlighted his company's focus on accelerating innovation as a key beneficiary of the rise of artificial intelligence stocks.
The acquisition has already been unanimously approved by both companies' boards of directors, but still requires the approval of regulators and Splunk shareholders. Assuming all goes as planned, the transaction should close by the end of the third quarter of calendar year 2024. Cisco believes the purchase should be cash-flow-positive and gross margin accretive in the first fiscal year post close, and accretive to nonGAAP earnings per share in the second year.
Splunk stock is trading at a modest 7.7% discount to the agreed purchase price. So given the cash nature of the deal -- and unless waiting longer to sell might qualify you for long-term capital gains tax rates on your profits -- I think most Splunk shareholders would do well to take their money and put it to work in any number of other promising stocks.
SPLK is super bullish because its passed 50 and 200 EMA and also it broke 109$ resistance as well, the volume and most indicators are bullish too
Arweave #AR Inverse head and shoulders Should give you a double.Pretty clean inverse head and shoulders
Arweave has already been a big winner for us
as we identified a falling wedge pattern which gave us massive opportunity for upside profit potential ..
This target may take a little longer to achieve
but early entry holders could easily be sitting on a 5-6X by then on their spot purchases!

FTNT: Dark Pool Buy Zone SupportNASDAQ:FTNT is a good example of a stock that had a big gap down that immediately filled due to falling below its fundamental level and a Dark Pool Buy Zone.
This and the sideways trading range developing on the long-term trend creates strong support for weathering any sympathy moves from other cybersecurity stocks that have been over-speculated.
Sideways action is likely to continue for a time, but AI-driven cybersecurity will only become more important in the years ahead and this stock is still at a decent price.

Bitcoin Peaks, Then Plummets + AI Tokens Await NVIDIA ConferenceBitcoin Peaks, Then Plummets + AI Tokens Await NVIDIA Conference
Bitcoin has just hit a new all-time high, surpassing the previous record set in November 2021 by a couple hundred dollars on some exchanges (about $69,300). This could have been a ‘just for the hell of it’ accomplishment, because immediately after, selling pressure took it down ~6%, below $63,000. No sign right now of a bottoming.
Still, the consensus for Bitcoin (according to Binance users) moving forward is Bullish (35% bullish and 29% very bullish).
Another interesting story developing in the crypto space is that of AI-based tokens. Bullsih predictions for coins such as Render (RNDR), Fetch.AI (FET), SingularityNET (AGIX), and Akash Network (AKT) are building in the lead up to NVIDIA 2024 GTC conference. The NVIDIA conference, scheduled between March 18 and 21, will feature technical workshops on generative AI.
RNDR LONGThe render is bouncing off the support level and the ascending trendline. Bullish movement is expected to continue and reach the resistance at $8.18
AIDoge...good boi!If you find this information inspiring/helpful, please consider a boost and follow! Any questions or comments, please leave a comment!
Well I got in, but the waves are not super ideal for me... they could be counted several ways. I think the move down looks like an impulse, so this count reflects that as the anchor. I am taking some liberties here to be fair...not counting some super long wicks is what I mean.
BUT in any case a break here to above 5420 and having it flip would be an ideal print. If we start falling back I want to see these levels hold as support.
LFG!
AGIX, Impulse complete? If you find this information inspiring/helpful, please consider a boost and follow! Any questions or comments, please leave a comment!

Triangle didn't print.
But when #Elliottwave fibs hit, I pay attention. 🧵
Looks like an impulse complete.
Would like a bit more clarity to be certain.

NVIDIA 850 ABOVE 815 SL 805 Reason Why Nvidia Will Still Growing
Diverse Market Presence: NVIDIA is not just a semiconductor manufacturer; it’s a tech powerhouse. Beyond GPUs for gaming and professional markets, they also create system-on-a-chip (SoC) units for mobile computing and automotive applications. Their expansion into cloud software and services positions them well for growth1.
Cloud-Based Software Dominance: The pandemic accelerated the adoption of cloud-based software and computing. NVIDIA’s GPUs play a crucial role in data centers—the brains behind cloud services. In Q1 2021, NVIDIA’s data center revenue hit a record high of $2.05 billion, accounting for 36% of total sales. Major players like Microsoft’s Azure Cloud, Google Cloud, and Amazon’s AWS rely on NVIDIA’s GPUs for data operations1.
AI and Deep Learning: Artificial intelligence (AI) systems demand fast and reliable processors. NVIDIA’s GPUs are unmatched for training and running AI systems. Their focus on research and development ensures they stay at the forefront of AI technology1.
Competing with Giants: NVIDIA is developing its own cloud services, including AI Enterprise and the Base Command Platform. They’re also venturing into creative collaboration tools with Omniverse. These initiatives put them in direct competition with tech giants like Amazon, Apple, Alphabet, and Microsoft1.
Analyst Estimates: While NVIDIA’s stock has rallied significantly, its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio remains high. However, analysts estimate that by fiscal 2025, their earnings per share could double, making the stock more attractive2.
Dell to 200+ by summerDell nice breakout on a great earnings. It is not crazy expensive. Earnings probably get bumped up to 10 dollars for next year from 7-8 dollars a share on the server backlog. Put an AI multiple on that and baby you got 20-30 times next years earnings of 10 dollars by summer, or a 200-300$ stock ha.
Filecoin: Biggest Shitcoin In History, Will Never Pump Again!FILECOIN:
A COIN OF FRAUDSTERS, HUCKSTERS & RACKETEERS!
Everything is PUMPING MASSIVELY while this FRAUD coin is still down 97% from its
all-time-high.
The Filecoin Foundation keeps dumping, preventing the coin from breaking out like everything else. If you "invested" in Filecoin expect to be used and taken advantage of by the Filecoin Foundation & Filecoin shillers like Arthur Hayes!
Beautiful Breakout and strong fundamentals - AppLovin NASDAQ:APP has an outstanding chart in my opinion. I've been following this stock for years now and waiting for the right time to get in. Although it's already rallied 70% YTD, the momentum this particular stock has combined with it's increasingly impressive earnings reports make it a strong buy.
They have been steadily increasing cash flow on top of accelerating earnings growth. The last 3 quarters it's beat analyst estimates and it's my personal opinion that we are in the midst of a era where web apps as well as mobile apps are being developed very rapidly, increasingly by individuals and smaller companies.
Net Income, Margins and Returns on Equity and Assets are all increasing. No wonder it's more than quadrupled since it's bottom of $9.00
Think of Streamlit, for you coders, and Snowflake's NYSE:SNOW increasing presence in owning these, and similar technologies. NASDAQ:APP is operating in a similar space and they really offer it all when it comes to building applications for your business.
The estimate revisions are surprising and look very strong going into next year.
