(HIMS) are turning investor attention toward peptides after its roughest week in two months, as it launches a new consumer campaign just days before a closely watched FDA advisory meeting.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/HIMS">HIMS stock</a> declined 7% last week, with shares also down over 1% in overnight trading heading into Monday.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">Hims Begins Peptides Campaign</h2>Late Sunday, HIMS published an&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DatMchNH4IW/?img_index=1">Instagram carousel</a> explaining what peptides are, why they have attracted biohackers and how they could become part of mainstream healthcare. The campaign comes as investors search for Hims’ next major growth engine beyond compounded GLP-1 drugs, and as regulators prepare to decide whether seven popular peptides should receive a clearer pathway into the U.S. compounding market.Hims said more than 170 peptides are in active clinical development, presenting the category as established science rather than a passing wellness trend. “Peptides aren’t new—they’ve been researched for decades,” the post said. “What’s changed? Research is growing, and peptides are becoming part of mainstream health conversations.”The final slide also acknowledged one of the market’s biggest challenges: inconsistent sourcing and formulation. “Not all peptides are created equal,” Hims said. “The science is real. Quality is what makes the difference.”<h2 class="st-heading-2">Key FDA Peptide Review Looms&nbsp;</h2>The campaign comes ahead of the FDA’s July 23-24 Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee meeting, where members will consider adding BPC-157, Emideltide, Epitalon, KPV, MOTS-c, Semax and TB-500 to the Section 503A Bulks List.FDA staff have recommended against all seven, citing limited human evidence, unclear formulations and unresolved risks including immune reactions and contamination. Former committee member Dr. Anita Gupta said earlier reviews raised “some red flags” over immunogenicity and pointed to reports of “heavy metals,” “microbial contamination” and mislabeling.The Partnership for Safe Medicines also urged rejection, saying the evidence is dominated by animal studies, laboratory research and weak overseas trials. It noted that BPC-157 has fewer than 36 human participants across three studies, KPV has no live-human trials and TB-500 has only one human tolerance study. The group also warned that compounding could falsely signal FDA approval and cited 127 peptide shipments entering U.S. ports in the first quarter, with about 39% coming from manufacturers outside FDA oversight.That stance contrasts with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s push for a looser approach. Kennedy has said peptides worked on his injuries with “really good effect,” while 12 peptides were moved into Category 1 in April, an early step toward possible pharmacy compounding.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Do Retail Traders Feel About HIMS?</h2>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for HIMS slipped to ‘bearish’ from ‘neutral’ territory a month ago amid a 200% jump in 24-hour message volumes.<figure class="image"><img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/hims_ss_png_4a1b77b459.webp" alt="hims ss.png" width="972" height="131"><figcaption>HIMS sentiment and message volume as of July 13| Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>One user&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/ETAlpha/message/658806213">said</a>, “If the upcoming peptide meeting goes well, this portfolio is absolutely going to the moon!

The license takes effect on Monday and adds another piece of ground infrastructure to AST SpaceMobile’s direct-to-smartphone broadband network.The authorization permits a gateway, or feeder-link, earth station at a specified New Zealand site to receive signals from AST SpaceMobile satellites. It covers frequencies between 37.5 GHz and 39 GHz and limits communication to certain satellites. The conditions also require a minimum satellite elevation angle of 15 degrees and restrict operations to the approved gateway site and antenna array.AST SpaceMobile is building a low-Earth-orbit (LEO) network that can deliver voice, data and video directly to standard, unmodified smartphones. Gateway stations are a key part of the plan, as they connect satellites to terrestrial telecom networks, enabling traffic to flow between space and local mobile infrastructure.<h2 class="st-heading-2">ASTS Readies Next BlueBird Launch&nbsp;</h2>The licence comes as AST SpaceMobile prepares its next satellite deployment. The company said on Friday that BlueBird 11 had arrived at Cape Canaveral, with BlueBirds 12 and 13 expected to follow shortly ahead of a launch targeted for the first half of August.The satellites were built in Texas as AST SpaceMobile works to scale production and maintain a faster launch cadence. BlueBirds 11, 12 and 13 are expected to feature communications arrays measuring about 2,400 square feet.AST SpaceMobile said that the next-gen satellites should deliver nearly twice the peak data speeds of its first-gen Block 1 BlueBirds, which recently achieved download speeds of 98.9 Mbps directly to standard smartphones. The company is relying on stackable satellite designs and advanced composite structures to support multi-satellite launches and accelerate constellation deployment.BlueBirds 8, 9 and 10 launched from Cape Canaveral on June 17 and are now operating in orbit, placing the next three satellites in line for deployment.

The vehicle has a listed top speed of 250 km/h, well above the 201 km/h limit of Tesla’s current China-market Model Y versions. It uses dual-motor all-wheel drive, with front and rear motors rated at 176 kW and 291 kW, respectively. Its 21-inch wheels, wider rear tires and LG Energy Solution-supplied ternary lithium battery further point to a performance-focused flagship.Tesla currently prices the Model Y in China from 263,500 yuan, or about $38,870, while the six-seat Model Y L costs 339,000 yuan. A Performance version would likely sit above the Model Y L as the lineup’s most expensive model.The launch comes as Tesla struggles to regain momentum in its most important overseas market. The Model Y delivered 38,654 units in China in June, accounting for about 73% of Tesla’s local deliveries. First-half Model Y sales rose just 0.6% year over year to 172,513 units, while Model 3 deliveries fell nearly 28%. Meanwhile, Tesla’s overall China deliveries also declined 2.05% in the second quarter, marking a fifth consecutive quarterly drop.Competition is also intensifying. BYD reported 397,292 passenger new-energy vehicle wholesale sales in June, while Leapmotor overtook Tesla China with 93,376 units.

Burry has not disclosed how many subscribers are on paid plans, and Substack's subscriber count includes both free and paid readers.&nbsp;This calculation does not account for the fee Substack may charge.&nbsp;For perspective, that hypothetical gross revenue exceeds the year-to-date gains generated by investing $1 million in each of the S&amp;P 500’s 10 best-performing stocks.<div><figure class="table"><table class="ck-table-resized"><colgroup><col><col><col></colgroup><tbody><tr><td>S&amp;P 500 Ticker</td><td>YTD Return</td><td>$1M Invested</td></tr><tr><td>SNDK</td><td>+707.11%</td><td>$8.07M</td></tr><tr><td>DELL</td><td>+248.13%</td><td>$3.48M</td></tr><tr><td>MU</td><td>+243.32%</td><td>$3.43M</td></tr><tr><td>WDC</td><td>+238.43%</td><td>$3.38M</td></tr><tr><td>STX</td><td>+231.38%</td><td>$3.3M</td></tr><tr><td>INTC</td><td>+197.67%</td><td>$2.9M</td></tr><tr><td>AMD</td><td>+160.50%</td><td>$2.6M</td></tr><tr><td>AMAT</td><td>+135.03%</td><td>$2.3M</td></tr><tr><td>MRNA</td><td>+131.50%</td><td>$2.3M</td></tr><tr><td>GLW</td><td>+118.75%</td><td>$2.18M</td></tr></tbody></table></figure></div>In sum, a million dollars invested in each of the above stocks would be worth $34 million now — or about a third of what Burry’s annual gross subscription revenue from his newsletter.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Michael Burry’s Substack Tops 300,000 Subscribers&nbsp;</h2>In a&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://michaeljburry.substack.com/p/short-and-thankful-300">post</a> titled "Short &amp; Thankful: 300," Burry revealed that Cassandra Unchained had reached 300,044 subscribers and 346,680 followers after nearly eight months.The accompanying chart showed steady growth from roughly 218,000 followers in January to nearly 347,000 in July. He added that subscribers now come from all 50 U.S. states and 212 countries, with 52% based outside the U.S.Burry launched Cassandra Unchained in November 2025, shortly&nbsp;after&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/michael-burry-sets-record-straight-scion-isn-t-closing/cLPobARREJl">deregistering</a> his hedge fund with the SEC, returning to social media and reviving his criticism of the AI boom. The newsletter quickly attracted more than 60,000 subscribers as he published his first AI-focused essays and intensified his criticism of Nvidia Corp. (NVDA) over stock-based compensation, hyperscaler spending and accounting practices. Since then, Cassandra Unchained has evolved into Burry's primary platform for publishing real-time portfolio updates, valuation work and detailed "Trading Posts" revealing his entry prices and investment rationale.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Burry’s Top Stock Picks Revealed</h2>Burry's first major trade disclosures were in April, when he revealed a 3.5% position in PayPal Holdings (PYPL) at about $49, ranking it ahead of Fiserv (FI) and Adobe (ADBE) in his software-and-payments universe. He later added around $45 to PayPal and also disclosed purchases of Fiserv. In the same month, Burry initiated positions in Adobe, Autodesk (ADSK), and Veeva Systems (VEEV), saying that fears of AI disruption had driven software valuations below intrinsic value. He also identified Salesforce (CRM) and MSCI (MSCI) as potential future additions.Also in April, Burry reaffirmed his conviction in Molina Healthcare (MOH) after earnings, calling investor expectations "rock bottom low" and saying that he planned to keep adding shares because the thesis was based on normalized earnings several years out.In June, Burry turned his attention to Lululemon Athletica (LULU), repeatedly adding to the stock while saying that Wall Street was focusing too heavily on management mistakes, tariffs, and slowing growth. "Bad management is a value investor's best friend," Burry said, calling Lululemon a long-term value opportunity rather than a broken business.His portfolio also expanded to include MercadoLibre (MELI), Microsoft (MSFT), Sprouts Farmers Market (SFM), Zoetis (ZTS), Fannie Mae (FNMA), Freddie Mac (FMCC) and sports-betting stocks including DraftKings (DKNG) and Flutter Entertainment (FLUT).Meanwhile, Burry disclosed a more than 6% stake in Alibaba (BABA) in April and repeatedly added to JD.com (JD). Last week, he called JD one of his top three positions, saying that money would rotate into Hong Kong and Chinese equities as enthusiasm around AI and memory stocks faded.<h2 class="st-heading-2">NVDA, MU And PLTR Lead Burry’s Bearish Bets</h2>Alongside these value bets, Burry also steadily expanded his bearish positions against AI and semiconductor stocks. In April, he disclosed additional Nvidia put options, including January 2027 $115 contracts while retaining earlier $100 puts. By June 30, Burry had escalated the trade into a direct short position in Nvidia at $198.09. The same update revealed fresh shorts in Applied Materials (AMAT), the iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX), Tesla (TSLA) and Caterpillar (CAT) as he compared today's semiconductor boom to the dot-com bubble."The proximate cause of today's rally is big spending announced out of Korea. Well, I see that as the beginning of the end," he said. Earlier this month, Burry disclosed a direct short in Micron Technology (MU), saying that the memory-chip maker had become more extended above its 200-day moving average than at any point since 1984.He has also maintained one of Wall Street's highest-profile bearish calls on Palantir Technologies (PLTR) since first disclosing the position in November last year. Although he partially covered the trade, Burry reiterated in June that there was "no sign of capitulation or exhaustion among sellers yet." Burry also briefly built a position in GameStop (GME) earlier this year before later exiting it.However, the stocks behind Burry’s bearish bets have significantly outperformed the broader market this year. While the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) is up 22% and the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) has gained 31%, NVDA is up 29%, AMAT has surged 206%, and MU has soared 697%.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/nasa-etf-spacex-selloff-asts-rklb-lunr-shares/cZmzQyfR7og">NASA ETF Tumbles Toward Launch Lows Amid SpaceX Selloff — But Tema Quietly Adds Over 5M ASTS, RKLB And LUNR Shares&nbsp;</a>

Thorne, chief market strategist at Wellington-Altus Private Wealth.In a <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/DrJStrategy/status/2076483260667052177">post</a> on X, Thorne said his S&amp;P 500 target is 14,000 by 2031, implying about 1.8x growth from the current 7,500 level. “Yes, you’re not bullish enough,” he said, arguing that markets are only beginning to grasp the earnings power that could emerge from an AI-powered economy.For context, the S&amp;P 500 has returned about 73% in the last 5 years.<figure class="image"><img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/koyfin_20260713_101152775_png_344d134e1b.webp" alt="koyfin_20260713_101152775.png" width="2400" height="1500"></figure><h2 class="st-heading-2">The Run-Hot Thesis</h2>According to the strategist, the U.S. is heading towards an economic environment that differs from the one that followed the global financial crisis of 2008.“Markets are finally asking the right question: what kind of earnings and multiples can a Trump‑era, AI‑powered ‘run‑hot’ regime actually support, and how does that differ from the post‑GFC world of secular stagnation and permanent caution. The answer looks less like a replay of the 2010s and more like a modernized version of the late 1980s and 1990s, when growth, productivity and valuation rose together,” he said.Thorne added that for long-term betters who are not day trading, “the run‑hot thesis is a framework for compounding real earnings and productivity over years, not for trading the next headline.”Thorne envisions that U.S. President Donald Trump “runs the economy hot,” while nominal gross domestic product grows at about 7% a year, compared with about 5% at the end of 2025, based on IMF data.This is based on the assumption that earnings will grow to around $400 in 2027 and to $600 to $650 by 2031, implying annual growth of 10.5% to 14%. That would lead to the “S&amp;P 500 earnings (to) grow at roughly 1.5–2 times that pace, powered by an AI capex super‑cycle, full expensing and a deliberate rebuild of productive capacity,” he said.<h2 class="st-heading-2">The Case For S&amp;P 500 At 14,000 By 2031</h2>Future market returns would largely depend on valuation, as per Thorne. In his base-case scenario, where earnings climb to about $600 per share and a forward multiple of roughly 22x, would result in the S&amp;P 500 would land in the low-to-mid 13,000 range.A stronger outcome, he imagines, would lead investors to view the AI-driven productivity gains as a lasting structural shift, supporting a 25x multiple and lifting the index to between 15,000 and 16,000.His highly bullish environment scenario envisions valuations approaching 30x earnings, pushing the S&amp;P 500 into the 18,000-19,500 range. With dividend reinvestment, total returns would balloon further, Thorne said.<h2 class="st-heading-2">What’s The Alternative?</h2>“The alternative, a world that only delivers 10,000 by 2031, is simply the old regime in disguise: slower nominal GDP, middling earnings and flat multiples,” the strategist said.However, he noted that he believes that this assumption is wrong. “In an AI‑driven, supply‑side American system, investors either price a genuine repricing of productive capacity, or they mis‑price a decade of higher output before it happens,” he added.Meanwhile, on Stocktwits, retail sentiment around the <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SPY">SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY)</a>, which tracks the S&amp;P 500 index, was ‘bullish’ at the time of writing.

Dogecoin is an open-source digital currency based on the "Doge" meme that functions as a peer-to-peer medium for fast payments and digital tipping. Unlike projects backed by corporate entities, its value is driven by a global community, and the project is managed by a decentralized group of volunteers and the non-profit Dogecoin Foundation rather than a formal company.  Originally created in 2013 by software engineers Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer as a market parody, the project held no public sale or venture capital rounds. The network operates as a fork of LuckyCoin, which itself was a fork of Litecoin, using a proof of work consensus mechanism. It employs the Scrypt algorithm to ensure the mining process remains fast and efficient, with new blocks processed every 60 seconds. A unique technical feature is its use of merged mining, allowing miners to secure Dogecoin simultaneously with other Scrypt-based networks like Litecoin.  To keep transaction fees low and the network running indefinitely, Dogecoin features an uncapped supply where new coins are added forever. In a major regulatory milestone in March 2026, a joint SEC and CFTC framework officially classified Dogecoin as a digital commodity, placing it in the same asset category as gold or oil.
