I was born on 6 August 1956 in San Francisco, California to Janet and (the late) Richard Hovis.
I grew up in Santa Monica, California where I attended elementary, junior high school, and high school (graduating in 1974), in addition to involvement in sports and recreation (Little League +, the Boy’s Club ++). Further, it was in elementary school – St. Augustine’s By-the -Sea Parish School that I found, and made the choice to truly journey with God.
I attended Arizona State University from 1974 to 1977 – seeking to become an architect, however, I was not accepted, and, as such, I graduated with a Liberal Arts degree.
Upon graduation from Arizona State University, I attended Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and studied City and Regional Planning at the Master’s level. I successfully completed one (1) year in a two (2) year program – I did not complete the Master’s degree in City and Regional Planning – due to personal reasons.
I returned to Santa Monica where I started (October 1979) my career as graphic designer with Exxon Company, USA. I spent five years with Exxon Company, USA.
While working with Exxon Company, USA I was accepted into architectural school – Sci-Arc in Southern California, however, I did not attend preferring to stay with Exxon..
In 1982 I married Laura Flosi and in April 1983 we had our one and only child – Lauren Alain Hovis – a gift from God.
We moved to Phoenix, Arizona in 1984 from Los Angeles, where I went to work as a graphic designer with Kitchell CEM (from 1985 -1987).
From 1987 – 1995 I was an independent contractor, and a registered representative in mortgage finance, financial management, graphic design, and drafting.
Further, I attended the University of Phoenix and successfully obtained a Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) in 1982.
I was also a member of the Scottsdale Jaycees, where I became very involved in community events and projects.
In 1994, I accepted a cartography position with the Defense Mapping Agency in Reston, Virginia. As such, I relocated from Phoenix to Reston.
In 1998, I was accepted and worked as a Visual Information Officer with the Central Intelligence Agency. In 2002, I worked as a Support Officer until my retirement (due to a need for shoulder surgery) in September 2018.
Away from my Federal Government service, I have been involved in various organizations and activities in Northern Virginia.
In November of 2011, I married Rebecca Ouellette in Santa Monica, California. I reside in San Tan Valley, AZ with my two hamster - Jess and Timothy, our fish, our lizard - RJ Lizard., and our cats - Pearl and Grey.
As to hobbies, I enjoy playing sports, attending sporting events, mentoring individuals from financial management to hamsters, building models, photography, travel, multimedia design, managing partner for RJ Hamster, and jazz – smooth jazz to a samba or a bossa nova.
Love and God Bless,
Peter – aka RJ Hamster Jo hi

Friends, in case you missed it, Houston and I recently identified what I believe could be one of the most important crypto opportunities of the next few years.
It sits at the intersection of AI and blockchain infrastructure, it’s still trading at a fraction of what traditional infrastructure companies are valued at, and it generates real income while you wait for the upside.
Most investors are completely overlooking this because they’re too busy chasing the same crowded AI stocks.
In case you missed it, here’s Big T’s Digital Asset Daily
A week after I bought my ticket to the Crypto AI Conference in Lisbon, the organizers slashed the price by 80%. That’s never a good sign.
I almost didn’t go.
I’d spent the previous few months bouncing between crypto conferences in Nashville, Singapore, and New York. Every room was packed. Every session had a line out the door.
So when I walked into the conference hall in Lisbon five minutes before the first presentation, I stopped in the doorway.
The place was a ghost town, with maybe a few dozen people scattered across a hall built for hundreds.
I re-read the welcome sign at the front of the room: Crypto AI Conference 2024. I was in the right place… but I felt like I’d made a huge mistake.
I seriously considered cutting my trip short.
Then I remembered Teeka’s experience back in 2016, when he walked into a nearly empty room at CES to hear a presentation about bitcoin. You could almost hear a pin drop. But what he heard there convinced him he’d seen the future.
He flew home determined to recommend bitcoin to readers — even after his publishers threatened to fire him for doing so. They thought he was crazy.
Fast forward, and bitcoin has gone on to soar as high as 29,900% from
Teeka’s early recommendation.
So instead of leaving, I found a seat and started listening.
My “Lightbulb” Moment
By the end of the first day, I’d spoken with a dozen developers building at the intersection of AI and blockchain.
The conversation kept coming back to one thing: AI agents. These are software programs that can think, make decisions, and take actions on their own – browsing the web, executing trades, booking services – without a human approving each step.
Most of the people I talked to in Lisbon weren’t investors. They were engineers trying to solve a very specific problem: AI agents can’t participate in the traditional financial system.
They can’t open bank accounts. They can’t get credit cards. In the eyes of the banking system, they don’t exist because they’re not human.
But blockchains don’t care whether the user is a human or a machine.
That was the lightbulb moment for me.
If AI agents eventually become as common as websites, blockchain infrastructure won’t just be a crypto story anymore. It’ll become an AI story, too.
I called Teeka on my way home to discuss two projects tied to that trend. At the time, almost nobody was paying attention to them… But my research showed both coins were gaining adoption from AI agents transacting on the blockchain.
Those two projects went on to return 826% and 932% in under three months.
That was two years ago. Since then, some of the biggest names in finance and tech have started moving toward the same realization:
Visa launched a Trusted Agent Protocol in October 2025. It’s a framework to help merchants verify legitimate AI agents and distinguish them from malicious bots, as AI-driven traffic to U.S. retail sites surged more than 4,700%. They declared 2025 the last year consumers would shop alone.
Amazon Web Services launched a payments infrastructure in May 2026 built with Coinbase and Stripe. It lets autonomous AI agents make real-time purchases using stablecoins… with plans to expand to hotel bookings, travel reservations, and merchant payments.
Ant Group (the financial giant behind Alipay) launched a platform enabling AI agents to hold assets, trade, and settle payments in real time using stablecoins, with no human involvement.
In the crypto markets, there’s been an explosion of on-chain AI agents, too. Yet two weeks ago, I was at Consensus 2026 in Miami, one of the largest crypto conferences in the world… and this was nowhere near the center of the conversation.
Thousands of investors were packed into the main stage sessions to hear guys like Michael Saylor, Raoul Pal, and Donald Trump Jr. But the most interesting conversation I had all week happened offstage.
I was speaking with a developer from Alchemy, one of the largest infrastructure providers connecting businesses to blockchains.
He mentioned a protocol Alchemy is helping develop alongside Coinbase called x402. It’s a system designed to help AI agents transact directly with businesses online.
Over the past month, the number of active AI agents surged from 69,000 to over 480,000 – a 596% increase – just on this protocol alone.
It confirmed what I’ve believed since Lisbon: The AI-agent economy is coming faster than most investors realize. And almost nobody is prepared for the real bottleneck underneath it.
Goldman Sachs estimates AI compute demand could grow 24x by the end of this decade as AI agent activity explodes. Meanwhile, JLL’s 2026 Global Data Center Outlook projects global data-center capacity will only roughly double over that same period.
That growing gap is exactly what makes this an asymmetric opportunity. Because the largest AI companies in the world are already running into limits.
Google has admitted it is “compute constrained,” Meta underestimated its future needs, and OpenAI is turning down business because supply can’t keep up. These are some of the richest companies on Earth. The money is there, but the resources aren’t.
The same problem that locked AI agents out of the banking system applies to computing: centralized providers weren’t built for machines.
Most investors will try to play this by guessing which AI agent becomes the next breakout app. That’s not a bad place to start. But the better question is: What infrastructure do all of these agents need if they’re going to operate 24/7?
What We’re Positioning In
That’s why I’ve become increasingly interested in decentralized compute networks.
The simplest way to think about these networks is as the “Airbnb” for GPU power.
Instead of relying on a single corporate provider, developers can tap into a global marketplace of unused computing resources… from independent data centers to high-end gaming rigs… all connected through decentralized networks.
That creates something the entire AI economy desperately needs: more supply, and potentially far lower costs. One decentralized compute project we identified in our Crypto Income publication is 2.5 times cheaper to use (per hour) than CoreWeave, three times cheaper than AWS, and four times cheaper than Google.
That’s why I believe some of the real winners in AI’s next phase may not be the flashy applications everyone talks about… But the infrastructure providers solving the compute shortage underneath them.
At Crypto Income, the project Teeka and I recently identified could be one of the most important projects operating at this intersection.
It’s an open-source decentralized cloud platform designed to provide enterprise-grade GPU power at dramatically lower costs than traditional cloud providers.
Out of respect for our paying subscribers, I can’t name it here. But I will tell you this…
While Wall Street continues piling into crowded AI stocks trading at massive valuations, this project is still trading at a tiny fraction of the value assigned to traditional infrastructure companies.
And it generates real income while you wait.
We laid out the full details — including the name and ticker symbol… along with why we believe decentralized compute infrastructure could become one of the most important bottlenecks in the AI economy — in our latest issue. Crypto Incomemembers can read it right here.
If you’re not a member yet, Teeka recently recorded a video briefing walking through the broader thesis, the opportunity we see developing, and how readers can gain access to our full research. You can watch that right here.
That combination — asymmetric upside tied to a major infrastructure bottleneck, plus yield — is exactly the kind of setup we look for. It’s the same framework that led Teeka into that nearly empty room in 2016, before bitcoin’s price exploded 299x higher.
It’s the same framework that kept me from walking out of the conference hall in Lisbon.
Two weeks ago in Miami, I stood shoulder to shoulder with thousands of investors watching celebrities debate crypto on stage. Not one of them mentioned AI agents. And I kept thinking the same thing: The next big idea isn’t on the main stage. It never is.
Flipping the Switch: Is Ford the Next Big Energy Stock?
Written by Jeffrey Neal Johnson on May 19, 2026
Key Points
Ford is strategically pivoting its battery manufacturing capabilities away from consumer electric vehicles and into the lucrative grid-scale energy storage market.
A foundational, multi-year supply agreement with a leading energy provider validates the immediate market demand for Ford’s new battery storage systems.
The move introduces a high-growth energy business that may reframe Ford’s long-term investment profile beyond its traditional automotive multiples.
For legacy automakers, the electric vehicletransition has been a protracted battle against margin compression and the burden of immense capital expenditure. Shares of Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) have reflected this struggle, trading in a range that prices the automaker as a low-multiple, cyclical industrial.
A recent strategic maneuver, however, suggests the market is missing a critical pivot that repositions Ford’s most valuable assets away from the crowded consumer auto market and directly into the high-demand energy infrastructure sector.
Ford Motor Company is executing a calculated capital reallocation. By formalizing its Ford Energy subsidiary and securing a massive 20 gigawatt-hours (GWh) battery supply agreement with EDF, Ford is moving to monetize its battery ecosystem at utility-scale. This pivot leverages its manufacturing DNA to tap into the insatiable power demands of the artificial intelligence-driven data center boom, reframing Ford’s investment thesis from that of a challenged legacy automaker to one that includes a new and discounted energy infrastructure play.
The biggest AI companies on Earth aren’t slowing down because of chips – they’re running out of power. A $10 billion data center is useless if it can’t turn on, and the grid isn’t keeping up.
Google recently signed a long-term deal for a forgotten energy source Big Oil tried and failed to crack for 50 years. Analyst Dylan Jovine says one overlooked company sits at the center of this shift – and Wall Street still treats it like a sleepy energy stock.See the AI power stock Wall Street has overlooked until now
Re-Routing the Current: From Auto Losses to Energy Gains
The catalyst for this strategic shift is rooted in financial necessity. Ford’s “Model e” division, responsible for its EV lineup, reported a $777 million EBIT loss in the first quarter of 2026. This level of cash burn demanded a re-evaluation of how to best deploy the automaker’s deep investments in battery technology and manufacturing capacity.
The answer is Ford Energy, a wholly owned subsidiary tasked with supplying large-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS). The unit’s commercial viability was immediately validated by a five-year framework agreement with EDF Power Solutions North America. Under the deal, Ford will supply up to four GWh of its DC Block BESS units annually, with a total potential volume of 20 GWh over the contract’s term.
This move is a direct repurposing of existing assets. Ford Motor Company is redirecting a portion of its previously announced $2 billion investment to retool its manufacturing facility in Glendale, Kentucky. Capacity once earmarked for consumer EV batteries will now produce utility-grade lithium iron phosphate (LFP) prismatic cells, positioning Ford as a key domestic supplier for grid stabilization and renewable energy storage projects across North America.
The Core of Ford’s Energy Value Proposition
Ford Energy will assemble the batteries and provide an integrated solution for a market facing a severe supply deficit. Ford’s flagship product, the DC Block, is a standardized, 20-foot containerized energy storage system designed for the metrics that matter to utility operators and project developers: long-term performance, thermal stability, and ease of service. The system, offered in two- and four-hour discharge configurations, is engineered to address critical grid needs, including frequency regulation, peak load shifting, and backup power for energy-intensive facilities such as data centers. This move directly targets a major macro tailwind, the exponential growth in electricity demand driven by artificial intelligence and the broader electrification of the economy.
Porter Stansberry, founder of one of the largest financial research firms in the world, says he’s breaking the biggest story of his 26-year career – an economic shift not seen since 1776.
From the government taking stakes in Intel, Lithium Americas, and MP Materials, to sweeping political changes reshaping the economy, Stansberry argues a rare ‘New 1776 Moment’ is already underway. One Nobel Prize winner calls it a dividing line for all of society.
A critical component of the Ford Energy strategy is its commitment to U.S.-based manufacturing. This decision provides a significant competitive advantage. By assembling its BESS units in Kentucky, Ford’s products are positioned to fully align with the domestic content provisions within the Inflation Reduction Act. This allows customers to potentially claim valuable Investment Tax Credits, making Ford’s hardware more financially attractive than foreign-sourced alternatives. This domestic supply chain also de-risks projects for developers who face uncertainty from geopolitical tensions and volatile shipping logistics.
Plugging Into New Multiples
The creation of a dedicated energy division fundamentally alters how investors should value Ford Motor Company. Currently, Ford trades at a forward price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) of just 8. This valuation multiple is typical for a mature, cyclical automaker subject to the whims of consumer spending and interest rate cycles. It fails to account for the predictable, long-duration, high-margin revenue streams characteristic of an energy infrastructure provider.
As Ford Energy begins deliveries in late 2027 and its revenue becomes a material part of the income statement, analysts will likely be compelled to adopt a sum-of-the-parts valuation model. This would assign a separate, and likely much higher, multiple to the energy business, potentially unlocking significant value for shareholders.
This pivot is not without financial constraints.
Ford Motor Company carries a notable debt-to-equity ratio of 2.84, a figure that requires disciplined capital management.
Ford has the financial fortitude to see this transition through. Management upgraded its full-year 2026 Adjusted EBIT guidance to a range of $8.5 billion to $10.5 billion, and Ford generates a robust $2.44 per share in cash flow.
This operational strength provides the liquidity needed to fund the Kentucky facility’s retooling without incurring excessive new leverage.
For investors waiting for the energy thesis to mature, Ford’s 4.6% dividend yield offers a compelling income stream, creating a valuation floor.
A New High-Voltage Ford
Ford’s strategic shift is a direct response to the challenging economics of the consumer EV market. Ford Motor Company is leveraging its core competency, industrial-scale manufacturing, and redeploying its assets toward a more profitable and predictable end market. The multi-year offtake agreement with a major utility like EDF de-risks the initial phase of this venture and validates the market demand for domestically produced energy storage.
Potential risks remain, centered on the execution timeline, with initial BESS deliveries still over a year away. Furthermore, Ford faces established competition from players like Tesla’s Megapack division. The sheer scale of the U.S. grid modernization effort, however, creates a vast addressable market with ample room for multiple key suppliers.
For investors, the calculus has changed. Ford Motor Company is no longer just a bet on car and truck sales. Investors with a long-term horizon who are comfortable with the execution timeline may consider the current share price an opportunity to gain exposure to the energy infrastructure buildout at a discounted automotive-sector valuation. More cautious market participants might add the stock to their watchlist and monitor it for key milestones, such as Ford Energy’s first customer deliveries, before initiating a position.

STARFIGHTERS SPACE (FJET):THE MACH 2 AIRBORNE LAUNCH PLAY TO HAVE ON YOUR RADAR!
Now that SpaceX is officially in the public IPO process, the market just got a major liquidity + sentiment anchor for the entire space stack!
Historically, when a dominant private space leader moves toward public markets:
capital rotates into “picks-and-shovels” aerospace infrastructure
earlier-stage launch/testing platforms get re-rated on scarcity value
anything tied to test cadence, hypersonics, and launch throughput can get attention
That’s the lane FJET is sitting in!
While SpaceX dominates the heavy-lift orbital narrative, FJET is closer to the “test velocity layer”—the part of the ecosystem that benefits when space development speeds up and iteration cycles shrink.
In simple terms:
SpaceX = orbital scale + launch dominance
FJET = rapid airborne testing infrastructure
Different parts of the stack, but the IPO puts both categories back on investor screens at the same time!
Look—FJET is basically doing something most aerospace companies aren’t even close to doing yet.
They’ve got real jets flying at Mach 2+, not simulations, not PowerPoints—actual aircraft that can carry test payloads, do hypersonic-style flight conditions, and help the U.S. military + space industry test next-gen tech faster.
Think of it like this: instead of waiting months or years for a rocket launch pad schedule… they just use a fighter jet as a reusable launch platform and go again.
That matters because right now the world is locked in a hypersonic + missile defense arms race. Governments are spending heavy on anything that can move faster, test faster, and respond faster.
That’s exactly where FJET sits. They’re tied into big defense and aerospace names like NASA, Lockheed Martin, GE Aerospace, and Air Force research groups—so this isn’t some random space startup in a garage.
It’s plugged into the real system. And they’re not just doing defense stuff either. They’re also moving into: satellite launch support microgravity research flights hypersonic testing environments training + experimental flight services So it’s not one bet—it’s multiple revenue lanes in one platform.
Bottom line:FJET is trying to become the “airborne shortcut” for space + defense testing in a world that’s obsessed with speed right now!
Full breakdown and disclaimer below. 👇
STARFIGHTERS SPACE (FJET) BRINGS MACH 2 SPEED TO AMERICA’S GROWING SPACE AND DEFENSE MARKET!
FJET is Rocketing Through the Stratosphere as Defense Demand, Hypersonic Testing, and Space Infrastructure Accelerate!
Recent geopolitical tensions across the Middle East—marked by sustained missile exchanges, drone activity, and precision strikes involving the United States, Israel, and Iran—continue to reinforce a shifting global security environment.
Long-range missile proliferation and hypersonic development are no longer future risks; they are active operational realities.
In response, U.S. defense priorities are increasingly centered on rapid-response missile defense systems, resilient testing infrastructure, and space-enabled deterrence capabilities.
Within this backdrop, aerospace infrastructure providers such as Starfighters Space, Inc. (FJET) are gaining attention as enabling platforms for next-generation defense readiness.
FJET ENTERS THE NYSE AMERICAN
Starfighters Space, Inc. officially began trading on the New York Stock Exchange in February of 2026 under the ticker “FJET” — and its timing could not be more strategically aligned with U.S. defense acceleration and the commercial space expansion cycle.
This is not simply another small launch company entering the public markets!
FJET is the only commercial operator in the worldcapable of sustained Mach 2+ flightwhile launching payloads into space — a capability that directly intersects with hypersonic weapons testing, missile defense priorities, and rapid-response aerospace deployment.
CEO Tim Franta rang the NYSE opening bell declaring, “Space is the future. And we’ll meet you there.” But the subtext is even more powerful: space is nowa national security priority.
Unlike traditional launch providers, FJEToperates a niche model centered on sustained Mach 2+ flight operations and airborne payload deployment.
This positions the company at the intersection of hypersonic testing infrastructure, suborbital and air-launch systems, defense R&D support, and microgravity research missions, all supported by operations within the NASA Kennedy Space Center aerospace ecosystem.
TESTING INFRASTRUCTURE IN HIGH DEMAND
The current aerospace cycle is increasingly defined by accelerated hypersonic weapons development and expanded missile defense modernization programs.
U.S. defense budgets continue to prioritize hypersonic systems in response to global peer competition, driving demand for real-world testing environments.
FJET’s Mach 2+ aircraft platform provides a repeatable airborne testbed for high-speed aerodynamic validation, payload separation analysis, and subsystem performance testing.
This capability positions the company within a growing category of flight-test infrastructure providers supporting national defense programs.
SATELLITES, RESPONSIVE LAUNCH, AND COMMERCIAL DEMAND
The commercial space sector continues to expand rapidly, led by small satellite deployment, Earth observation networks, and defense communications systems. As constellation-scale satellite networks grow, demand for flexible and responsive launch-adjacent infrastructure has increased.
FJET’s air-launch approach offers an alternative pathway for experimental payload delivery and satellite deployment testing, while its STARLAUNCH development program targets longer-term suborbital and orbital capability expansion.
This places the company within the broader shift toward distributed and high-frequency space access models.
DEFENSE AND AEROSPACE ECOSYSTEM INTEGRATION
FJET has established relationships across major aerospace and defense institutions, including Lockheed Martin, GE Aerospace, NASA, U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory, Space Florida, and Mu-g Technologies, LLC.
These relationships support integration across hypersonic testing, microgravity research, and advanced aerospace system validation, reinforcing FJET’s role within a broader national aerospace innovation network.
MACH 2+ AIRBORNE LAUNCH INFRASTRUCTURE
At the core of FJET’s operations is a fleet of modified F-104 aircraft capable of sustained Mach 2+ flight, functioning as a reusable airborne first-stage launch platform.
This system enables rapid-turnaround supersonic testing, captive-carry payload validation, and experimental launch configurations under the STARLAUNCH program.
Unlike traditional vertical launch infrastructure, the platform emphasizes mobility, reuse, and operational flexibility, allowing repeated mission cycles with reduced ground infrastructure dependency.
MULTI-PROGRAM AEROSPACE SERVICES PLATFORM
FJET operates a diversified aerospace services model spanning satellite air-launch missions, hypersonic R&D testing, microgravity research flights, avionics certification programs, adversary air training, aerospace media demonstrations, and pilot training operations.
This multi-stream structure reduces reliance on any single program milestone while aligning with broader aerospace-as-a-service industry trends.
EXPANDING MICROGRAVITY AND TEST INFRASTRUCTURE
Recent developments include expanded collaboration with Mu-g Technologies, LLC to support parabolic flight testing and NASA-aligned reduced-gravity research initiatives.
The partnership includes co-located operations at Midland Air & Space Port, integrated flight testing support for modified aircraft systems, and a joint response to NASA’s Request for Information for parabolic flight services.
These initiatives extend FJET’s role into microgravity research infrastructure and dual-use aerospace testing operations.
SCALING OPERATIONS
The company has entered a new operational phase with the appointment of Tim Franta as Chief Executive Officer and expanded space operations leadership under Jose Arias. These leadership changes reflect a transition from early-stage development toward scaled execution, program expansion, and increased operational throughput across testing and flight programs.
STARLAUNCH PROGRESS AND TEST VALIDATION
Key milestones include completion of STARLAUNCH 1 wind tunnel testing across Mach 0.85 to Mach 1.3 regimes with no observed adverse aerodynamic separation effects, continued advancement of instrumented drop test planning, and expansion of dual-site operations spanning Florida and Texas aerospace facilities.
These milestones support the incremental development of more complex mission profiles and longer-term launch capability objectives.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Starfighters Space (NYSE: JFET) has entered the public arena at a time when the space economy is accelerating on multiple fronts—commercial, governmental, and geopolitical.
It operates a differentiated, mobile, reusable Mach 2+ launch platform in an industry where flexibility, speed, and testing cadence are increasingly valuable.
Space is no longer speculative — it is operational, strategic, and increasingly commercial. FJET has declared that space is the future!
For those evaluating emerging aerospace infrastructure plays, Starfighters Space (NYSE: FJET) represents a newly public entrant operating at Mach 2 in both speed and ambition! Start your research!
