Peptides are moving towards approval. This is the first domino in a vastly consequential chain of events that ends up in $HIMS being worth $2,000 per share intrinsically by the year 2030.
1/ BPC-157 and the other generic peptides get approved. Millions of people try them. They see results. Then they ask the obvious question: what else can I take?
2/ They ask it on the platform that already has them. $HIMS is the largest D2C healthcare platform on Earth, and the only one with a vertically integrated supply chain. Vertical integration wins on price:value. Price:value wins the customer.
3/ Every customer becomes biomarker data. And the biomarker data gets deeper and more exhaustive every year: more patients, more panels, more before-and-after pairs.
4/ Eventually the data is so exhaustive that $HIMS AI can design personalised peptides for anyone. Optimal patient outcomes, at a fraction of the cost of anyone else in the market.
5/ This is the scenario that takes $HIMS to $2,000 intrinsic value by 2030. In everyone’s eyes, it becomes the platform that unlocks the new AI scaling law: life extension per token. It inverts the entire industry on its head: "drug discovery" gets immediately deprecated and all value accrues to the single AI trained with the most and highest quality biomarker data.
6/ This sends everyone on a race to space: if you don't own this AI, you're forced to succumb to it both as a pharma supplier and as a customer, because not using this AI means others beat you in selling drugs and you just don't live as long as customer, respectively.
7/ It becomes the most valuable subscription service on Earth as the AI gets increasingly predictive. Just like not running $PLTR today is a massive disadvantage, increasingly comparable to not using electricity, not running on the $HIMS OS means you don't have access to the core value creation machine that literally allows anyone in the industry to stay alive.

FUN FACT 🧅🧅🧅
ONIONS ARE THE ONLY VEGETABLE IN AMERICA YOU ARE LEGALLY BANNED FROM TRADING FUTURES ON
THE REASON IS ONE OF THE CRAZIEST MARKET MANIPULATIONS IN HISTORY.
IN 1955 2 CHICAGO TRADERS BOUGHT 30 MILLION POUNDS OF ACTUAL ONIONS
THAT WAS 98% OF ALL THE ONIONS IN IN THE AREA
THEN THEY LOADED UP ON ONION
FUTURES TOO
THEY DIDN'T JUST WANT TODAY'S ONIONS. THEY WANTED TOMORROW'S.
THEY OWNED THE ENTIRE MARKET.
THEN CAME THE BETRAYAL.
THEY SOLD SOME AT THE TOP THEN THEY SECRETLY FLIPPED & SHORTED ONION FUTURES, AND DUMPED ALL OF ONIONS ONTO THE MARKET ALL AT ONCE.
A 50 LB BAG WENT FROM $2.75 TO 10 CENTS
FOR CONTEXT THE EMPTY BAG THAT THE ONIONS CAME IN COSTED 20 CENTS
THE ONIONS WERE LITERALLY WORTH NEGATIVE
THEY MADE MILLIONS. FARMERS WERE LEFT DUMPING ROTTING ONIONS BY THE TRUCKLOAD
SO THE FARMERS WENT TO WASHINGTON AND A YOUNG MICHIGAN CONGRESSMAN TOOK UP THEIR FIGHT.
HIS NAME? GERALD FORD. THE FUTURE PRESIDENT.
IN 1958, ONION FUTURES WERE BANNED. NEARLY 70 YEARS LATER, THEY STILL ARE.
BUT HERE'S THE TWIST
ONION PRICES HAVE BEEN EVEN MORE VOLATILE SINCE THE BAN
BECAUSE FARMERS CAN NO LONGER HEDGE
CONGRESS TRIED TO PROTECT FARMERS AND ENDED UP HURTING THEM

A very interesting development out of Europe this morning for $ASTS.
Four of Europe’s largest telecommunications operators have signed a letter of intent to explore a joint bid for satellite spectrum:
- Deutsche Telekom
- Orange
- Telefónica
- Vodafone
All FOUR are existing $ASTS partners.
Together, these operators represent an enormous opportunity, with $ASTS highlighting a European market of more than 500 MILLION mobile subscribers.
Now, remember what I’ve been discussing throughout this recent $ASTS selloff?
One of my arguments has been that SpaceX becoming a more direct competitor to traditional mobile operators could actually make an independent satellite provider like $ASTS more strategically valuable.
And I believe this development supports that broader thesis…
Europe’s largest telecom companies are looking to secure greater control over satellite connectivity and spectrum.
That’s a potentially significant opportunity for $ASTS.
But there’s an important distinction.
This is NOT a finalized spectrum acquisition, and $ASTS has NOT been awarded an exclusive contract through this initiative.
There are still regulatory hurdles, commercial agreements and satellite deployment milestones ahead.
$ASTS has already demonstrated considerable interest from major telecommunications operators.
But interest alone doesn’t generate revenue… the company needs to get its satellites into orbit, establish reliable commercial service and turn these relationships into meaningful cash flow.
Still, I think investors are overlooking something important.
SpaceX becoming more competitive doesn’t necessarily mean $ASTS loses.
In fact, traditional carriers may increasingly want an independent alternative…
and developments like this are exactly why I haven’t abandoned my long-term bullish outlook despite the recent volatility.
The opportunity is enormous.

University of Chicago Students to Protest at Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Demand End to Federal Ban on Onion Futures
Student-led group For Our Futures will rally Monday morning to call for repeal of the 1958 Onion Futures Act
On Monday, October 19, at 8:30 a.m., members of For Our Futures, a student-led organization from @UChicago, will gather outside the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (@CMEGroup) headquarters to demand the repeal of the Onion Futures Act of 1958, a nearly 70-year-old federal law prohibiting futures trading in onions.
The Onion Futures Act, enacted following allegations of market manipulation in the 1950s, singled out onions for a prohibition on futures contracts that remains in effect today. For Our Futures is calling on Congress to repeal the ban and restore the ability of onion growers, buyers, and traders to participate in a regulated futures market. Onions remain the only commodity banned from futures trading in the United States.
The protest will feature a giant inflatable onion costume, protest signs, and dozens of students, and will take place outside the headquarters of CME Group, one of the world's largest derivatives marketplaces and the historic center of American onion futures trading.
