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

Amprius (NYSE: AMPX) stock is likely to move higher — much higher — because its technical signals, backed by a robust fundamental outlook, converge with the single signal that matters most: trading volume.
An increase or decrease in trading volume signals whether the market is genuinely buying the stock.
It’s a coin under $1.00 that most investors have never heard of. But the world’s largest bank is already building on it. It has a deflationary burn mechanism tied directly to institutional usage.Click to see my #1 pick.
Without rising volume, even strong technical signals are more likely to fizzle out than translate into sustained gains for investors.
Trading volume is critical for price action because it reveals market conviction — a firmly held belief about a stock’s value.
Volume also validates trends, serves as a leading indicator of continuation or reversal, indicates liquidity, and signals institutional activity.
Amprius’ trading volume is significant for numerous reasons. Volume ramped alongside price in 2025 and 2026 as price broke out to fresh highs. That pattern appears on the daily and weekly charts and was beginning to show on the monthly chart — in early March, AMPX was already approaching record monthly volume.
Record-setting days and weeks have been logged. Trading volume on the day of AMPX’s fiscal Q4 2025 earnings release was more than four times the 30-day average and remained elevated the following day, producing a weekly spike with similar metrics.
Amprius Technologies Volume Spiked for a Reason
Amprius Technologies’ trading volume spiked for a reason: its Q4 earnings release unequivocally affirmed a robust outlook for this industry-disrupting stock. Amprius Technologies’ silicon-anode lithium-ion batteries deliver greater energy density and discharge capacity, enabling larger payloads and longer ranges for vehicle and system platforms across industries — and demand is increasing.
Key 2026 details are that Amprius’s contract-manufacturing strategy is working, production is ramping, demand is solid, and improved compliance with the National Defense Authorization Act opens the door to broader government and defense business. That led management to raise revenue guidance, and analysts’ “hyper-growth” forecasts may still be conservative.
Analyst and Institutional Trends Reveal Amprius Stock Is Being Accumulated
The analyst and institutional trends remain modest — coverage is light and institutional holdings are small — but three tailwinds are in place. First, analyst coverage has been increasing, boosting exposure and investor interest.
Second, sentiment is improving: four of the nine analysts tracked by MarketBeat issued updates after the Q4 release. Third, institutional investors are accumulating. While holdings are modest at roughly 5% as of early March, the trailing 12-month (TTM) flow is strongly bullish, with institutions buying about $6 of shares for every $1 sold.
Analyst sentiment is bullish as well. Coverage has risen nearly 30% over recent months, the consensus rating sits at Moderate Buy, nearly 90% of analyst recommendations favor Buy, and price targets are climbing.
The consensus projects about 12% upside from the key resistance level, but high-end targets in the low $20s imply roughly 30% upside — a level that could be reached by midyear.
Technical Signals Converge: Amprius Price Action to Head Higher
AMPX hit a critical juncture shortly after the earnings release, trading near resistance at the top of a trading channel. The channel top could cap near-term gains, but indicators on the daily, weekly, and monthly charts — including price action, volume, the stochastic oscillator, and MACD — are converging in a way that points higher.
AMPX is likely to break out of its channel, confirm the top as support, and continue to accelerate. It could quickly reach the high end of analysts’ expectations and then move higher, potentially testing resistance at all-time highs well before year-end. Catalysts for this move are already in place: upcoming news releases and earnings reports should add momentum. Given Amprius’s potential to disrupt global battery markets, AMPX stock could rise by 200% to 300% over the next year or two.

Pretty much everything has gone according to plan for Team USA through three games in the World Baseball Classic. With a win tonight versus Italy (9 p.m. ET on FS1), the Americans would run their record to 4-0 and clinch the top seed in Pool B, setting up a date in the quarterfinals with the Pool A runner-up.
Even with a loss, the Americans could still claim the top seed in their pool if Italy (2-0) loses on Wednesday against Mexico, which would create a three-way tie atop the standings that would be sorted out via tiebreakers. But Team USA would like not to leave anything up to chance.
Outside of some early offensive sluggishness versus Great Britain on Saturday, the USA has coasted through the Classic thus far. It has outscored opponents 29-9 while its starting pitchers — Logan Webb, Tarik Skubal and Paul Skenes — permitted two earned runs on four hits and recorded 18 strikeouts in 11 combined innings.
Tonight, manager Mark DeRosa will hand the ball first to Mets young right-hander Nolan McLean. The 24-year-old had a splendid big league debut in 2025, logging a 2.06 ERA through 48 innings (eight starts). He will be supported by a lineup that scored 15 runsversus Brazil, found its groove in the middle innings against Great Britain and slugged a couple of homers in Monday’s thrilling winover Mexico.
Team captain Aaron Judge has hit two of the Americans’ four homers in the tournament, and he came through on defense as well versus Mexico. Red Sox phenom Roman Anthony provided a majestic three-run shotduring the win, and he, Judge and Schwarber all have OPS marks north of 1.100 through three games.
Italy starting pitcher and 11-year MLB veteran Michael Lorenzen will certainly have his hands full trying to tame that lineup. But the Italians’ offense has been potent in its own right. They have five home runs through two games, which means the espresso maker in their dugout has been mighty active. Italy owns a 1.140 team OPS despite an 0-for-7 start to the tourney from star first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino. Dante Nori, the Phillies’ No. 7 prospect, has picked up the slack with five hits and two dingers through his first seven at-bats.
If Italy beats the USA and Mexico, it would earn the No. 1 seed in Pool B while the Americans would be the runners-up. So, there is a lot at stake this evening.
There is another pivotal WBC game tonight: Canada (1-1) facing Puerto Rico (3-0) in Hiram Bithorn Stadium at 7 p.m. on Tubi. The Puerto Ricans can sew up the top spot in Pool A with a win, while Canada needs a win to maintain a shot at the top seed, though they’ll still need to beat Cuba on Wednesday to ensure they will advance to the quarterfinals.
However, the main event will be in Houston, with the top spot in Pool B on the line. The equation is simple for the USA: Win and you’re on to the next round. But that’s easier said than done versus Italy.

MEANWHILE, AT CAMP …
It might be easy to forget amid all the thrills of the World Baseball Classic, but Spring Training is still in full swing. Here are some of the best stories to come out of Arizona and Florida over the past week:
• When you’re the 19-year-old No. 1 prospect in baseball, you might miss some everyday life lessons along the way. Enter the roommate.
• With a national audience watching on ESPN, Yankees top prospect George Lombard Jr. greeted Cy Young runner-up Garrett Crochet with a monster leadoff home run.
One of the things we love most about the World Baseball Classic is that everyone brings their absolute best while they represent their heritage. The passion, intensity and skill demonstrated by the finest players in the world has been inspiring throughout Pool Play.
That said, for our purposes in this section of the newsletter, what we’re actually referring to is the quality of their gear. If you’re a baseball style nut – like we are – then this is absolutely your event. We’ve been collecting our favorite cleats, gloves and bats right here, and we’ll be continuing to do that throughout the Classic.
For now though, here are three notable picks from Pool Play, as seen above:
Shohei Ohtani, Japan colorway of SO1
Ohtani has been notably conservative with his first signature cleats, either using a white/black and gold motif or Dodger blue, so it’s fun to see him branch out a bit.
Bobby Witt Jr., custom Team USA bat
The Royals dynamo has opened eyes with his Gold Glove defense, and his bat is just as sharp. We mean the literal bat, though he entered Tuesday hitting .333 with three steals.
Jazz Chisholm Jr., Union Jack glove Knowing what we do about how Jazz usually rolls – he’s known to design his own cleats, for example – we had high expectations. And to be certain, he absolutely exceeded them with both his amazing glove and a host of custom Air Jordans.
– Bryan Horowitz
SKENES-SANITY — THE SEQUEL
If last year is any indication, tickets for the Pirates’ home game on April 18 are going to be some of the hottest of the season. The reason is simple: All fans in attendance will take home a limited edition Paul Skenes Cy Young Bobblehead.
To be sure, every start by the Team USA ace, coming off four scoreless innings in a 5-3 victory over Mexico last night, is a can’t-miss affair. And while there’s no guarantee he’ll be on the mound for his giveaway night, the incredible collectible alone will certainly pack the park. So get your tickets before they’re gone >>
