Could Easing Iran Tensions Trigger an Amazon Pre-Earnings Rally?

Author: Sam Quirke. Published: 4/6/2026. 

Key Points

• Amazon has been virtually flat for 18 months, with shares still trading around $210 amid macro headwinds and AI spending concerns.
• However, if oil prices were to drop, it would relieve pressure on both tech valuations and consumer spending, setting up a potential pre-earnings rally.
• Analysts remain bullish on AMZN, with over 40% of upside targeted, but the move depends on macro stabilization aligning with a strong earnings report.
• Special Report: The Biggest IPO Ever: Claim Your Stake Today

Tech giant Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN) has been one of the more frustrating large-cap stocks to watch and to own in recent months. Shares of the Seattle-based company are currently trading around $210, roughly the same level as in November 2024 — meaning the stock has effectively gone nowhere in 18 months despite a stronger broader market backdrop. For context, the S&P 500 has gained about 10% over the same period, even after the index’s recent pullback.

Expectations of a marked turnaround in 2026 had been high for the company’s place among the “Magnificent Seven”. Instead, the underperformance has persisted: AMZN fell as much as 20% around its February earnings and remained lower in the two months that followed. More recently, the war in Iran has added fresh headwinds, pushing oil higher and reigniting concerns about inflation, consumer spending and tech valuations.

What makes the current setup especially tricky is how quickly the narrative can shift. Markets are reacting not only to events on the ground but to changing expectations about how and when the conflict might de-escalate, with sentiment swinging sharply on each new signal — from social-media posts to official statements.

If tensions do start to ease, that could trigger a sizable retracement in oil prices and a subsequent cooling of inflation worries. Easing those headwinds would be the kind of tailwind Amazon needs as it heads into its next earnings report in a few weeks.

Let’s take a closer look at what that could mean and how it might play out.

Why the Macro Background Matters More Than Usual

The surge in oil prices since the conflict began on Feb. 28 has had a broad, meaningful impact. Higher energy costs feed directly into inflation expectations, which in turn pressure interest rates and compress valuation multiples, particularly for tech stocks like Amazon.

For the e-commerce and cloud computing provider, the impact isn’t limited to multiples. Elevated fuel costs also erode consumers’ budgets, reducing discretionary spending and creating a second layer of pressure on Amazon’s core e-commerce business. That dual effect makes the situation particularly nuanced for the company.

If tensions ease and oil prices begin to retrace, those twin pressures could unwind at the same time — a potent combination for bulls to consider.

A Pre-Earnings Move Could Be Sizeable

The setup is more interesting given that Amazon is expected to report earnings on April 23. With the stock having absorbed substantial negative sentiment in 2026 and trading roughly 10% below where it began the year, consensus expectations are likely lower than usual. That said, aside from the company’s miss in its last report, Amazon had beaten analyst expectations for 11 consecutive quarters through Q1 2023.

Analyst support remains strong. Wells Fargo recently reiterated a Buy rating and raised its price target to $305, implying more than 40% upside from current levels. That follows a steady string of bullish updates in March and reinforces the view that Amazon’s long-term story remains intact despite near-term pressures. If geopolitical tensions ease, that creates an attractive risk-reward heading into earnings.

Much of the confidence comes from what analysts see beneath the surface. Wells Fargo named Amazon its top internet pick for 2026, citing improving cloud momentum and signs that recent investments may be translating into returns. If that narrative holds, the stock won’t need a perfect earnings print — just confirmation that the business is moving in the right direction.

The Risk Is Still Considerable

The obvious risk is that the macro backdrop does not cooperate. If oil stays elevated or rises further, inflation concerns are unlikely to abate, which would continue to pressure both Amazon’s valuation multiples and consumers’ discretionary spending. That would make the environment more challenging heading into fiscal Q1 results, especially given scrutiny over Amazon’s rising capital expenditures (CapEx).

Amazon’s push into artificial intelligence (AI) remains central to the investment thesis, but it also contributes to uncertainty. The scale of CapEx required for AI has raised questions about near-term profitability, and investors will look closely for any signs of an emerging payoff in the coming report.

If those signs are absent and macro conditions remain difficult, the stock could struggle to escape its recent range regardless of broader sentiment. Promisingly, Amazon trades at a trailing 12-month price-to-earnings ratio of 29.26, and analysts expect earnings to grow nearly 18% over the next year.

This Month’s Bonus Story

$330M Bitcoin Binge: When Others Pause, Strategy Pounces

Reported by Jeffrey Neal Johnson. First Published: 4/9/2026. 

Key Points

• The recent acquisition of digital assets reinforces Strategy’s standing as a leading institutional player in the rapidly evolving crypto ecosystem.
• Strategic capital management through innovative preferred stock offerings enables continued treasury expansion without immediate share dilution.
• Management continues to position the corporate treasury to anticipate predictable market scarcity events and maximize long-term value for all shareholders.
• Special Report: The Biggest IPO Ever: Claim Your Stake Today

In a market wrestling with indecision and reacting to every geopolitical headline, Strategy (NASDAQ: MSTR) has chosen to act with resounding clarity.

Strategy, a pioneer in integrating Bitcoin (BTC) into its corporate identity, has decisively re-entered the market, acquiring an additional 4,871 bitcoins for roughly $329.9 million. The purchase was executed as Bitcoin’s price hovered around the pivotal $69,000 mark — a level watched closely by traders worldwide.

For Strategy, this was not a moment for hesitation but for calculated action. More than a line item on Strategy’s balance sheet, it is a direct reaffirmation of the company’s core mission.

While market volatility has prompted many to wait and see, Strategy’s leadership demonstrated contrarian conviction, viewing the current climate as an opportunity to bolster its already massive treasury. Investors gauging institutional sentiment could view this decisive return to accumulation as a powerful bull signal, offering a clear window into Strategy’s long-term vision.

Inside Strategy’s Latest Treasury Move

To grasp the full weight of Strategy’s commitment, the details of its latest acquisition matter. This was not a speculative, one-off purchase but the continuation of a disciplined plan to methodically increase its holdings. The precision of the operation underscores the seriousness of the company’s approach.

The data paints a picture of renewed buying pressure:

• Execution Window: The 4,871 bitcoins were acquired over five days, from April 1 to April 5, 2026.
• Average Price: Strategy paid an average of $67,718 per coin, inclusive of all fees and expenses.
• A Fortified Treasury: This latest infusion brings Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings to 766,970 coins.

This treasury — among the largest held by any publicly traded company — was assembled with an aggregate investment of $58.02 billion. That total underscores that Strategy’s approach is not short-term trading but long-term, disciplined accumulation of what it considers a superior store of value. Each purchase is another brick in a digital fortress, built on conviction that looks well beyond today’s price charts.

Intelligent Leverage: How Strategy Creates Shareholder Value

A key question for investors is why Strategy’s stock often trades at a premium to the direct market value of its Bitcoin.

That premium to net asset value (NAV) is not an anomaly; it reflects Strategy’s unique structure and the additional value it provides beyond simply holding coins. Investors are buying exposure to a dynamic operating company with a sophisticated financial engine.

That engine is powered by two complementary capital-raising tools. First, an adaptable At-The-Market (ATM) program that issues shares efficiently to fund operations and acquisitions. Second, its Series A Perpetual Stretch Preferred Stock, which attracts income-seeking investors with an 11.5% annual dividend. Together, these provide a significant capital pipeline for buying Bitcoin without immediately diluting common stock.

This intelligent use of capital is the core of the Strategy Advantage and explains its premium valuation. The market is buying a package that includes:

1. Leveraged Bitcoin Exposure: By using funds from debt and preferred stock, any appreciation in Bitcoin’s price is amplified for Strategy common stockholders.
2. A Functioning Business: An established enterprise software business provides an operational backbone and an additional revenue stream from the tech sector.
3. A Regulated and Simple On-Ramp: Strategy serves as a trusted, liquid, and accessible vehicle for gaining Bitcoin exposure within a standard brokerage account.

With over $49 billion in combined remaining capacity from its stock offerings, Strategy has a long runway to continue executing this plan, signaling that its growth phase is far from over.

Positioning for Bitcoin’s Next Big Catalyst

Strategy’s recent buying spree is not happening in isolation. It is a forward-looking move positioned ahead of the next programmed event in the Bitcoin ecosystem: the 2028 halving.

The halving, which occurs roughly every four years, cuts the reward for mining new blocks in half and reduces the issuance of new bitcoin. That creates a supply shock: less new supply entering the market makes the existing supply relatively scarcer.

Historically, halvings have preceded significant bullish price cycles as steady or rising demand meets shrinking issuance. By accumulating aggressively now, Strategy increases its stake ahead of this predictable scarcity event, positioning its treasury to benefit from any subsequent market repricing.

Moreover, Strategy’s transparent accumulation has ripple effects across the financial world. As a publicly traded entity, its steady purchases serve as a blueprint and confidence signal for other corporate treasurers and institutional investors. Each major buy helps normalize Bitcoin as a reserve asset, contributing to market maturation and broader adoption. In that sense, Strategy is not just investing in Bitcoin; it is helping shape the narrative around its future acceptance.

A Clear Signal in a Complex Market

Ultimately, Strategy’s decision to inject another $330 million into Bitcoin is an unambiguous statement of confidence from a management team with a long-term plan.

That action provides investors with a tangible data point amid daily market noise, reaffirming the company’s commitment to its pioneering approach.

The firm’s ability to raise capital and leverage its corporate structure creates the distinct Strategy Advantage — a vehicle designed to offer more than passive exposure to a digital asset.

It represents an active, leveraged bet on Bitcoin’s future appreciation, managed by a team that has staked its corporate identity on the outcome. For investors who share that bullish conviction and want a regulated, liquid way to amplify exposure, Strategy continues to make a compelling and strategically coherent case for consideration.

The AI spending spree should continue this year. That could boost shares of Nvidia and other tech stocks.

The AI Profit Predictor just signaled a big move for NVDA – by using predictive artificial intelligence.

Simply go here for details – and see how it works.

Five American companies are at the forefront of the AI revolution. This includes Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Meta and Oracle. These “hyperscalers” are investing to build out data centers across the country.

Together, these companies are expected to spend $700 billion in 2026.

It’s important to understand that this is not the end of the AI spending cycle. It’s just the start.

Total spending could reach $8 trillion by the end of the decade, according to Blackrock.

Nvidia stock will continue to be one of the biggest winners. Shares of NVDA are trading below recent 52-week high. The recent pullback provides a nice entry point to scoop up shares.

So, how high could Nvidia stock go in 2026?

My new AI Profit Predictor is signaling a big move.

Simply go here for details and get the next trade.

The Arms Race Has Gone Airborne: What Investors Need to Know 

Written by Bridget Bennett. Date Posted: 4/6/2026. 

Key Points

• Draganfly and Palladyne AI recently completed a SwarmOS integration milestone that enables decentralized autonomous drone swarming for U.S. defense applications.
• Edge AI is transforming drone warfare by allowing drones to operate independently without internet connectivity, making GPS denial and signal jamming far less effective as countermeasures.
• The drone defense sector is entering a policy-driven super cycle, with 2027 expected to be the breakout year for meaningful revenue scale across the industry.
• Special Report: Elon Musk: This Could Turn $100 into $100,000

The next stage of drone warfare isn’t coming — it’s already here. And the investment implications are bigger than most investors realize.

Cameron Chell, CEO and Executive Chairman of Draganfly (NASDAQ:DPRO), has spent more than 25 years building drone systems for military, public safety, and commercial applications. His view on where the industry stands right now is blunt: if your offensive or defensive systems aren’t deploying autonomous, AI-enabled drones today, they’re already outdated.

Iran War Shakes Up Wall Street, Here’s How to Profit… (Ad)

Since 2009, the Dividend Machine has posted a total return of 7,056.47% – turning a $10,000 stake into more than $700,000 while the broader market struggled through multiple downturns.

With a 93% win rate since launch, this dividend-focused strategy has kept investors cashing steady checks through every crash. Bill Spetrino has released a free report outlining how to position for income no matter what the market does next.Claim your free report and see how the Dividend Machine works

That’s the thesis behind a defense-sectorsupercycle — and it’s driven not by consumer demand or hype but by geopolitics.

Edge AI Turns Drones Into Independent Decision-Makers

The concept accelerating this shift is edge AI — putting computing power directly on the drone so it can process data, make decisions, and execute missions without relying on an internet connection or cloud infrastructure. Chell says even Draganfly’s least expensive drones have compute capacity comparable to NVIDIA‘s chips.

That matters because connectivity has always been the weak link. Early countermeasures against small drones focused on jamming GPS or severing the radio-frequency link between the drone and its operator.

Edge AI removes that vulnerability. A drone with onboard intelligence can navigate by visual recognition, assess changing conditions like terrain or weather, and even abort a mission autonomously if circumstances change.

The implications extend beyond the battlefield, but it’s defense applications that are drawing the most capital right now.

Swarm Technology Changes the Math on Defense

The economics of modern drone warfare have flipped the traditional cost equation. Instead of firing a single missile system that costs millions at a target, an attacker can deploy dozens or hundreds of inexpensive drones to overwhelm defenses at a fraction of the price. No existing surface-to-air system can currently handle 50 or 500 drones arriving simultaneously, regardless of how expensive that system is.

Draganfly is building toward that future through its partnership with Palladyne AI (NASDAQ:PDYN). In late March, the two companies announced a successful SwarmOS integration milestone, completing a flight simulation that validated decentralized autonomous swarming across Draganfly’s drone platforms.

Unlike traditional swarm systems that rely on a single leader drone directing the group, Palladyne’s SwarmOS enables multiple drones within a swarm to act as independent decision-makers — perceiving their environment, collaborating with teammates, and adapting in real time without continuous communication links.

That capability aligns directly with what tier-one defense customers are asking for. Draganfly recently secured a contract to provide Flex FPV drones and training to U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command units. The company also completed an exclusive capabilities demonstration for the Canadian Armed Forces after participating in Canada’s MINERVA working group — an initiative tied to Prime Minister Mark Carney’s new Defense Industrial Strategy emphasizing sovereign drone capabilities.

A Policy-Driven Super Cycle With a Long Runway

Chell calls this a policy-driven supercycle, and the distinction matters. This isn’t demand generated by consumers or a tech fad. National-security priorities are forcing governments to pour money into drone capabilities because the cost of inaction risks the security of entire nations.

The conflict in the Middle East has accelerated the timeline dramatically. That region — one of the wealthiest on the planet and home to critical, high-value infrastructure — now needs drone-defense systems immediately. The industry investment forecasts, according to Chell, are about to be exceeded by a wide margin.

For investors trying to time this cycle, the revenue picture is still early. Chell says the industry is just now seeing the leading edge of revenue scaling, with 2027 projected as the breakout year for meaningful top-line growth across the sector. Military procurement cycles that once took years have compressed to one or two, and the first sizable contract awards are starting to land.

Draganfly’s Full Product Line Is the Strategic Bet

What separates Draganfly from many competitors, Chell argues, is its full product line. The company has four drone systems in production and a fifth in development, ranging from five-inch FPV tactical drones to the Outrider — a nine-foot, dual-diesel-engine platform with seven-hour endurance and 100-pound lift capacity. All are designed to be interoperable.

That ecosystem approach matters because real-world operations rarely require just one type of drone. A surveillance mission may need a separate strike drone, a target-acquisition platform, and a logistics-delivery system. Chell says the only other company with a comparable full product line is DJI, which employs roughly 10,000 engineers.

Draganfly is also pursuing vertical integration through acquisitions to secure its supply chain and protect proprietary IP, while maintaining partnerships with sensor providers, software developers, and motor manufacturers across the broader drone ecosystem.

The Commercial Upside Beyond Defense

Defense is pulling capital into the sector now, but Chell draws a parallel to the early internet era that’s worth considering. Two decades ago the internet was replacing the yellow pages; nobody could have imagined what it would become. Chell sees a similar long-term trajectory for drones: they collect data better, communicate better, and deliver goods more efficiently than alternatives.

The transformation of military drone technology into commercial applications could be as economically significant as the internet itself. That’s a bold claim, and it will take time. But the underlying capability — autonomous machines making real-world decisions based on real-world data — has applications across agriculture, infrastructure inspection, logistics, public safety, and beyond.

For now, the investment case is straightforward: global defense budgets are expanding, procurement timelines are compressing, and companies building interoperable, AI-enabled drone ecosystems sit at the front of a multi-year spending wave. Revenue hasn’t fully materialized yet, but the contracts are starting to land.

Alphabet Has Fallen 16% From Its Highs: Panic or Opportunity?

Authored by Ryan Hasson. Article Posted: 3/27/2026. 

Key Points

• Alphabet has fallen almost 20% from its record high and broken below key $300 support, but the higher-timeframe uptrend remains intact.
• Fundamentals have rarely been stronger, with Q4 EPS and revenue both beating estimates.
• Despite the selloff, 46 of 51 analysts rate GOOGL a Buy, with a consensus price target of $367.18, implying nearly 26% upside. 
• Special Report: Elon Musk: This Could Turn $100 into $100,000

Shares of Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL), last year’s top-performing Magnificent Seven stock, have sold off sharply from their record February high. The stock has now declined by almost 20%, entering correction territory. In late March it broke below the key $300 support level, signaling a potential short-term shift in momentum.

A jury’s March 25 ruling added to the negative sentiment, finding its subsidiary YouTube liable in a social media addiction case and ordering a $3 million payment. That amount is negligible next to a company valued at roughly $3.5 trillion.

With the stock in correction territory, investors may reasonably ask: is this a time to sell, or a buying opportunity for patient investors?

Correction Territory, But the Higher Timeframe Trend Remains Intact

Technically, this appears to be a pullback within a broader, higher-timeframe uptrend. On the weekly chart the stock remains in a firm uptrend, and the current decline represents the first major pullback and retest since the breakout in July of last year.

Now that the stock is below $300, the next potential support area is around $280, where Alphabet spent several weeks consolidating in November. If the correction accelerates along with broader market weakness, the most critical support zone would be the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), currently near $260. That level would be a meaningful, lower-risk area to watch for signs of stabilization and possible re-entry.

The Fundamentals Have Rarely Been Stronger

If the technical picture calls for patience, the fundamentals provide conviction. Just over a month ago, Alphabet reported its Q4 and full-year 2025 results, and the numbers were strong across the board. For the third consecutive quarter the company beat both earnings and revenue expectations and surpassed $400 billion in annual revenue for the first time.

Earnings per share (EPS) came in at $2.82 versus a $2.59 consensus estimate. Revenue reached $113.83 billion, topping forecasts of $111.43 billion. For the full year Alphabet generated $402.8 billion in revenue and $10.81 in EPS, representing year-over-year growth of 17% and 34%, respectively.

Google Cloud remains the standout growth driver. Fourth-quarter cloud revenue was $17.66 billion, up 48% year over year and well above estimates. On an annualized basis, Google Cloud has passed a $70 billion revenue run rate. Cloud backlog surged 55% quarter over quarter to $240 billion from $155 billion the prior quarter, providing strong forward visibility.

The core advertising business also remains resilient. Search revenue rose 17% year over year in Q4, suggesting AI-related disruption has not materially dented Google’s primary revenue engine. YouTube generated more than $60 billion in combined advertising and subscription revenue in 2025, and Alphabet now reports 325 million paid consumer subscriptions across its platforms. On the AI front, Gemini surpassed 750 million monthly active users, with over 10 billion tokens processed per minute through direct API usage, signaling rapid enterprise and developer adoption.

Analysts and Institutions Aren’t Worried

Despite the selloff, Wall Street sentimenttoward the tech giant remains broadly bullish. Of 51 analysts covering the stock, 46 rate it a Buy, producing a consensus Moderate Buy. The consensus price target of $367.18 implies nearly 26% upside from current levels — a move that would take the stock to new all-time highs.

Institutional flows tell a similar story. Over the past 12 months, about $164 billionflowed into the stock versus $82 billion in outflows, a net inflow of roughly $82 billion that reflects sustained confidence in Alphabet’s execution, fundamentals and long-term positioning.

Why small joys beat big goals every time

We live in a culture obsessed with big goals. 

Lose 30 pounds. Run a marathon. Meditate every day. Become your best self. 

And we’re so focused on the distant finish lines — that we stop noticing everything in between. 

A 2025 neuroscience study from UC Berkeley discovered something that reframes how we think about happiness and motivation: small daily pleasures activate the dopamine system more effectively and more sustainably than major achievements. 

Why? A big goal delivers one large dopamine release — then silence. The brain adapts and immediately begins searching for the next target. This is the dopamine chase. 

Small daily joys create a stable background level of satisfaction. And it’s precisely this that research links to longevity, immune resilience, and long-term mental health. 

Five small pleasures with outsized neurochemical effects: 

☕ First coffee in silence. Not with your phone. Not with the news. Just coffee and five minutes of owing nothing to anyone. Oxytocin + serotonin. 

🌸 Fresh flowers at home. A Harvard study found that live flowers in a living space reduce anxiety and raise feelings of wellbeing measurably for three days after they appear. 

📖 Ten minutes of a book that isn’t “useful.” Not self-development. Not business strategy. Just something you actually enjoy. A brain in the pleasure state of reading mirrors the same state as meditation. 

🚶‍♀️ A route you’ve never walked before.Novelty activates the hippocampus and raises BDNF. Even one new street on the way home is a microdose of neuroplasticity. 

🛁 A bath or a long shower without rushing. The rise in body temperature followed by cooling mimics your body’s natural sleep signal — and is one of the most effective natural anxiolytics available. 

You don’t need to wait for vacation to feel alive. You’re already living. Start noticing.

Donald Doge 

Twelve months ago, I launched the Moonshot Minute portfolio with 700,000 people watching and a small group of paying members trusting me with real money. The rules were simple: find the right opportunities, size them properly, and when a position doubles, sell your original stake and let the rest ride on house money. This eliminates risk and preserves the upside.

This week, another position crossed 105% and triggered that rule. The 5th time in twelve months. Let me put that in perspective: a group of subscribers now holds five positions where their original capital has been returned in full, and they still own shares that cost them nothing. Those shares can run for years with zero risk to the original investment.

And we haven’t closed a single losing trade. Not one. Of course, I don’t expect that to always be the case, but for now, I can’t pretend it doesn’t feel good.

If you’ve been reading these essays on grid infrastructure, critical minerals, and the physical bottlenecks behind the energy transition, you already know the thesis. Every position in this portfolio traces back to the same conviction: the world is short the physical stuff that makes modern economies run. The essays tell you where to look. The portfolio tells you exactly what to buy.

Premium members, scroll down to the Premium section below for the full alert, updated guidance, and exactly what to do with this position.

And in case you missed it, the essay below is a real-time example of an important part of the overall thesis.

In January 2023, somebody walked up to a substation in Moore County, North Carolina, and fired a rifle into a 40-year-old power transformer. 

Power died for 45,000 people in the dead of winter. Hospitals scrambled for generators. Elderly residents were evacuated from freezing homes. Schools went dark for days. 

The FBI called it domestic terrorism. The transformer that was destroyed took over a year to replace. 

I’m from a country where the lights going out wasn’t a metaphor. It was an almost daily anxiety. My family stretched every dollar, and even if we paid their power bill on time, we still sat in the dark. 

I know what it feels like when the grid fails you. 

The U.S. data center project pipeline hit 241 gigawatts by the end of 2025, up 159% in a single year, according to Wood Mackenzie. 

Only a third of that pipeline is under active development. The rest is waiting on a grid held together by equipment older than most of the people reading this. 

Four Weeks to Four Years

Everyone’s chasing AI stocks. NVIDIA. Microsoft. Meta. The market treats artificial intelligence like it runs on magic. 

It runs on electricity. Massive, uninterrupted, baseload electricity. The kind that doesn’t flicker, doesn’t brown out, and doesn’t negotiate with your portfolio. 

A single hyperscale data center draws 100 to 300 megawatts, enough to power a city of 80,000 people. We’re building hundreds of them. 

The entire U.S. electrical grid’s peak capacity sits at roughly 1,200 gigawatts. 

The 80 gigawatts of pipeline already under active development alone would represent nearly 7% of the nation’s total grid capacity, and we haven’t broken ground on most of it. 

The grid can’t absorb it. 

The average U.S. power transformer is over 40 years old. Lead times for new large power transformers now stretch to three to four years. 

Five years ago, that wait was four to six weeks. Wood Mackenzie projects that most transformer categories will remain in shortage through at least 2030, with power transformers facing a 30% supply deficit in 2025 alone. 

Factor in compounding demand from renewables, EVs, and data centers, and that timeline stretches further. 

The IEA’s Electricity 2026 report projects global electricity demand will grow by an average of 3.6% per year from 2026 through 2030, roughly 50% faster than the average across the prior decade. 

That forecast is built on data centers already under construction, EVs already on the road, and manufacturing already reshoring. 

Physics doesn’t care about your stock picks. 

259% Returns While Nobody Watched

Global grid capital expenditure topped $470 billion in 2025, a 16% increase over the prior year, according to BloombergNEF. 

The U.S. alone accounted for $115 billion of that total, roughly a quarter of worldwide grid spending. 

Governments and utilities are upgrading grids because the alternative is blackouts, economic paralysis, and national security failure. 

One institutional research index I track closely, focused specifically on grid infrastructure companies, has generated a total return north of 259% since mid-2021, compared to roughly 65% for the S&P 500. 

Year-to-date in 2026, it’s outperforming the S&P by over 24 percentage points. 

Grid infrastructure stocks are crushing the S&P 500 by a margin that would make most hedge fund managers weep into their Bloomberg terminals. And almost nobody in the retail investing world is paying attention. 

Why? Because transformers and substations don’t trend on Twitter. Nobody’s making TikToks about voltage regulators. 

But every single AI query you run, every autonomous vehicle that charges, every Bitcoin that gets mined flows through this invisible backbone. 

The steel, copper, and concrete that keep the lights on are the real AI trade.

The Grid as a Weapon of War

The U.S. Department of Defense has quietly flagged transformer shortages as a national security vulnerability. 

The same grid that powers your home also powers military installations, communications networks, water treatment plants, and hospitals. A sustained grid failure is a civilization-level event. 

Just this week, the President of the United States threatened to destroy every power plant and bridge in Iran, warning that it would cause an entire civilization to collapse. 

The most powerful military on earth identified a nation’s electrical grid as the single most devastating target it could strike. 

China controls significant portions of the supply chain for the critical minerals needed to manufacture transformers and grid components, including gallium, germanium, and heavy rare earths. 

Beijing has already started restricting exports. Every restriction stretches the timeline for fixing our grid even further. 

Richard Bookstaber, the Wall Street risk veteran who foreshadowed the 2008 financial crisis in A Demon of Our Own Design, wrote in The New York Times last month that today’s risk is no longer financial engineering. 

He argues that our financial system has attached itself to the vulnerabilities of the physical world (power grids, water, land, supply chains) and created hazards that markets have no framework to analyze. 

He’s right. Our models for detecting risk look at prices, volatility, and correlations. They have no instruments for reading a grid failure. By the time warning signs show up in market data, the damage is already done. 

You can’t deploy a large language model to replace a 500-ton piece of equipment that takes four years to build.  

The physical world has hard limits, and we’ve been ignoring them for decades while we financialized everything in sight. 

40% More Capacity Without a Single New Wire

Grid-enhancing technologies (advanced power-flow control, dynamic line ratings) can increase capacity on existing transmission lines by 20% to 40% without building new ones. 

Hitachi’s AI-powered voltage control systems are reducing hardware strain by 27%, extending transformer lifespans. 

Smart grid digitization is becoming mandatory as utilities struggle to manage the dynamic load patterns created by data centers, EV charging, and distributed solar. 

Companies that build, maintain, and digitize grid infrastructure are the picks and shovels of the AI revolution. The merchants who sold supplies during the Gold Rush made more reliable fortunes than the miners panning for flakes in the river. 

The companies keeping the lights on are positioned to capture enormous value while everyone else fights over which chatbot wins. 

In our Moonshot Minute portfolio, we’ve been building positions in this space because the thesis is simple… no grid, no AI.

Every technological revolution in history has been bottlenecked by infrastructure. 

Railroads bottlenecked the Industrial Revolution. Highways bottlenecked the automobile age. Fiber optic cables bottlenecked the internet. 

The AI revolution’s bottleneck is the electrical grid, and $470 billion a year is now flowing into fixing it, with that number climbing. 

What You Should Do This Week

The actionable takeaway is straightforward: 

Audit your portfolio for grid exposure.

If you own NVIDIA but don’t own a single company that builds, upgrades, or manages electrical infrastructure, your AI thesis has a hole in it the size of a 500-kilovolt transformer. 

You’re betting on the destination without owning the road. 

Look at the companies building smart meters, manufacturing transformers, upgrading transmission lines, and deploying grid-enhancing software. 

Look at the utilities investing billions in infrastructure modernization. Look at the copper miners supplying the raw material that every foot of new wire requires. 

The market is pricing AI software like the infrastructure is already built. 

The companies building it are still trading at a fraction of the valuations being handed to software firms that can’t function without them. 

What Premium Members Are Getting Right Now

You just read roughly 1,200 words of analysis that most financial newsletters would put behind a paywall. I gave it to you for free because I’d rather earn your trust than charge for your attention. 

And in the Premium Section below, I name the specific companies positioned to capture the grid infrastructure buildout. I tell you when to buy, at what price, and when the thesis has played out, and it’s time to sell. 

The portfolio speaks for itself. 

Since launch, we’ve closed 9 trades with zero losses and an average gain of roughly 60% per position. Four positions have doubled, and on each one, I sold the original stake to lock in a full return of capital. 

Those positions now ride on house money, compounding with zero risk to the original investment. 

Across all 23 open positions, three out of every four are winners.

Two of those open positions are grid infrastructure plays tied directly to the thesis you just read. One is already up double digits. 

The other is trading below our original entry because the market is fixated on a temporary earnings headwind from acquisitions that will be accretive within a year. The macro case has only gotten stronger since we bought it. 

Premium Members get the full update below, including why the dip is an opportunity, not a warning. 

That’s the difference between reading the thesis and acting on it. 

I write two to three essays a week for Premium members, plus real-time alerts when it’s time to move. The next one is already drafted below. 

The companies on the receiving end of that $470 billion are inevitabilities, not moonshots. 

The question is whether you’ll position yourself before the rest of the market figures it out, or after, when the easy gains are gone, and everyone’s suddenly an expert on transformer lead times. 

I know which side I’m on. 

Double D 

P.S. Here’s a screenshot of the current Moonshot Minute Portfolio. I’ve blurred out the tickers since that information is only for Premium Members, but you can see how we’ve done so far: 

🔓 Premium Content Begins Here 🔒

In today’s Premium Section, an update on our grid buildout positions and how we’re playing multiple triple and double-digit winners, as well as updated guidance and a buy for a ticker we believe is set to outperform over the next 12 months.

I hope you’ve been paying attention because many of our picks are currently beating the S&P by up to 4-to-1 over the last 12 months. 

Most financial newsletters charge $500, $1,000, even $5,000 per year. Why? Because they know they can. 

I don’t. 

I built my wealth the old-fashioned way, not by selling subscriptions. 

That’s why I priced this at $25/month, or $250/year. 

Not because it’s low quality, but because I don’t need to charge the typical prices other newsletters charge.

One good trade, idea, or concept could pay for your next decade of subscriptions. 

The question isn’t ‘Why is this so cheap?’ The question is, ‘Why would I charge more?’

P.S. If this newsletter were $1,000 per year, you’d have to think about it. 

You’d weigh your options. You’d analyze the risk. 

But it’s $25 a month. 

That’s the price of a bad lunch decision. 

And remember, just one good idea could pay for your subscription for a decade.

UnitedHealth Cash Flows Face Policy and Margin Stress 

UnitedHealth still produces strong cash flow, but rising care costs and policy pressure are changing how secure that support looks for dividend investors. 

Why This Matters Now

Dividend investors watch cash flow because it shows how much support stands behind income payments. That matters now for UnitedHealth because even a 1 percentage point margin move can meaningfully affect a business this large.

The company still has scale, recurring demand, and broad health care exposure. But strong cash flow alone no longer settles the dividend question when costs and regulations are both putting pressure on results.

In this article, we explore how UnitedHealth’s cash generation, margin pressure, and policy exposure affect dividend coverage, yield stability, and portfolio context.

Washington Is Running Out Of Money…
And Guess Where They’ll Look Next?

When governments go broke, they take from the people.

It’s happened before, and it’s happening again. 

The Department of Justice just admitted that cash isn’t legally YOUR property. 

That means Washington believes it has the power to freeze accounts, confiscate retirement savings, and drain wealth overnight.

Think this is just a theory? 

• Cyprus, 2013 – The government seized private savings overnight to fund a banking bailout. 
• Argentina, 2001 – Citizens woke up to frozen bank accounts and forced currency devaluation. 
• The U.S… TODAY? – The DOJ’s new claim just set the stage for the same fate. 

But there’s a way out.

We’ve put together a FREE Wealth Defense Guide that shows you 3 powerful ways to keep your savings out of Washington’s reach. 

No cost. No obligation. Just the information you need to fortify your financial future.

Get the Guide Before It’s Too Late

Because once they come for your wealth… there’s no undoing it.

Cash Flow Still Supports the Case

UnitedHealth’s main strength is its ability to generate large operating cash flow from recurring activity. Insurance premiums, pharmacy services, care delivery, and related fees all contribute to a wide and steady cash stream.

That matters because dividends are supported by real cash generation, not just accounting earnings. A company with recurring cash inflows usually has more room to support payouts through a weaker operating stretch.

Scale helps as well. UnitedHealth’s size spreads fixed costs and gives it more ways to absorb short-term pressure than a smaller insurer with fewer business lines.

Margin Pressure Carries More Weight

Margin shows how much profit remains after costs. In managed care and health services, margins are often thin, so even small cost changes can have a large effect on payout flexibility.

That is the key issue now. If medical costs rise faster than pricing or reimbursement, revenue can still look healthy while the room for dividends, buybacks, or debt reduction gets tighter.

This is why top-line growth can mislead. A company can keep growing sales while the quality of dividend coverage weakens underneath.

A simple sequence captures the tension:

1. Revenue stays firm because demand is recurring
2. Medical costs rise faster than expected
3. Margin pressure reduces flexibility around capital returns

That does not mean the dividend is immediately in danger. It means support for future dividend growth can weaken before the payout itself does.

Policy Risk Has Direct Financial Impact

Policy risk in health care is not just political noise. It can change reimbursement rates, utilization rules, compliance costs, and the economics of public programs.

For UnitedHealth, that matters because regulated business lines are a large part of the company mix. Changes tied to Medicare Advantage, oversight standards, or billing practices can affect margins even when enrollment remains steady.

That makes policy risk different from a normal business cycle. It can alter business economics rather than simply reduce demand for a quarter or two.

For dividend investors, the key point is clear: policy pressure can narrow the cushion around cash flow. The dividend may still appear covered, but the margin for error can shrink faster than the payout ratio suggests.

Optum Adds Support and Complexity

Optum gives UnitedHealth a broader earnings base than a pure insurer. Pharmacy services, care delivery, and data-driven operations all add support to total cash generation. 

That diversification helps because weakness in one segment does not always hit the whole company at once. A broader platform can make total cash flow more stable than it would be in a single-line business. 

But complexity matters too. Strength in one area can offset weakness in another, yet it can also make it harder to see where pressure is building first. 

This table shows the central tension: UnitedHealth still has strong support, but each now comes with a visible offset. 

Area

Support

Pressure

Insurance 

Large premium base 

Higher medical costs 

Optum 

Diversified cash sources 

Regulatory complexity 

Capital returns 

Strong cash history 

Less room if margins tighten 

Risks and Limitations

No single article settles the full dividend case. 

• Cash flow can remain strong for a time even as future pressure builds 
• Policy outcomes are hard to judge before final rules are clear 
• Segment diversity can soften shocks but also hide early weakness 
• Balance sheet strength still matters alongside operating cash flow 

Portfolio Translation

For dividend portfolios, UnitedHealth still looks better supported than many smaller health care names because of its scale and broad cash sources. At the same time, margin pressure now matters more than revenue growth in judging dividend quality. That leaves yield stability looking more supported than immediate payout stress, while dividend growth support looks less secure if policy and cost pressure persist. 

Conclusion

UnitedHealth still offers the core feature dividend investors want to see: large recurring cash flow. The issue now is that policy pressure and thinner margins are changing how durable that support looks.

For income-focused portfolios, the main question is no longer cash flow alone. It is whether that cash flow can keep the same strength when cost pressure and policy risk move together.
