Hims & Hers Health Inc - Ordinary Shares - Class A

Hims & Hers Health Inc

Hims & Hers Health is trending amid sharp investor division, primarily driven by the recent FDA approval of Novo Nordisk's oral Wegovy pill and speculation around potential distribution partnerships for GLP-1 treatments. While many note the stock's significant drawdown and high short interest as bearish indicators, others view the current valuation as a prime long-term buying opportunity, citing strong fundamentals, institutional accumulation, and the company's expansion into new health verticals and international markets.

Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency based on the popular "Doge" Internet meme and features a Shiba Inu on its logo. Dogecoin is a Litecoin fork. Introduced as a "joke currency" on 6 December 2013, Dogecoin quickly developed its own online community and reached a capitalization of US$60 million in January 2014. Compared with other cryptocurrencies, Dogecoin had a fast initial coin production schedule: 100 billion coins were in circulation by mid-2015, with an additional 5.256 billion coins every year thereafter. As of 30 June 2015, the 100 billionth Dogecoin had been mined.   Dogecoin was created by Billy Markus from Portland, Oregon and  Jackson Palmer from Sydney, Australia. Both wanted to create a fun cryptocurrency that will appeal beyond the core Bitcoin audience. Dogecoin is primarily used as a tipping system on Reddit and Twitter where users tip each other for creating or sharing good content. The community is very active in organising fundraising activities for deserving causes.  The developers of Dogecoin haven’t made any major changes to the coin since 2015. This means that Dogecoin could get left behind and is why Shibas are leaving Dogecoin to join more advanced platforms like Ethereum. One of Dogecoin strengths is its relaxed and fun-loving community. However, this is also a weakness because other currencies are way more professional.  To purchase Dogecoin, it involves downloading a crypto wallet, setting up a crypto exchange account and then trading away for your desired crypto currency. Once we have set up an account with a DOGE currency exchange and deposited some funds, you are ready to start trading.

Dogecoin

Dogecoin is currently seeing divided community sentiment, with many anticipating a potential rebound in the new year following year-end tax loss selling. Enthusiasts are holding strong, highlighting its robust community and long-term potential, while critics dismiss it as a "shit coin" with no utility. This dynamic conversation reflects the ongoing speculation about its future trajectory within the volatile crypto market.

It deploys its observe, orient and dominate products to customers throughout the defense, intelligence, and commercial markets. The company was founded in 2020 and is headquartered in McLean, VA.

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc

BigBear.ai is trending due to significant community discussion surrounding an ongoing, repeatedly postponed proxy vote on share authorization, creating considerable market uncertainty. Investors are sharply divided, with many expressing frustration over potential dilution and management's communication, while others advocate for the shares as crucial for strategic acquisitions like Ask Sage and future growth. Despite current price stagnation, a core of optimism persists for the company's potential to secure substantial government contracts and leverage its AI capabilities within the defense and national security sectors.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Gun stocks have largely underperformed this year compared to 2024, with Outdoor Holding emerging as an outlier.</li><li>Smith &amp; Wesson also posted gains, although its sales decline continues amid industry softness.</li><li>Most analysts recommend buying major gun stocks, according to Koyfin.</li></ul>Despite a high-octane 2025 that followed an assassination attempt on President Donald Trump at the end of last year and the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, this year has been comparatively quieter in terms of gun violence. And, in turn, for the gun stocks.That said, Smith &amp; Wesson Brands Inc., the iconic U.S. firearms seller, and GunBroker.com parent Outdoor Holding Co. have had a strong run compared to 2024, driven mainly by company-specific initiatives that fueled business momentum.There have been at least 392 mass shootings in the U.S. so far this year, leaving at least 325 people dead and 1,775 injured,&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://edition.cnn.com/us/mass-shootings-fast-facts">according to</a> the Gun Violence Archive (GVA), a nonprofit organization. The number of shooting incidents is the lowest in seven years. The number of deaths in such incidents is the lowest in two decades, according to the Associated Press&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://projects.apnews.com/features/2023/mass-killings/index.html">database</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:799/442;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_12_16_at_7_32_46_PM_png_db43400e97.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-16 at 7.32.46 PM.png" width="799" height="442"></figure>&nbsp;Gun stocks typically rally in the wake of mass civic shootings –&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/charlie-kirk-shooting-gun-stocks-jump-trump-condemns-killing/chwN5FiRdHI">as seen</a> after Kirk’s assassination – on the perception of a surge in personal security concerns, with heightened demand for firearms translating into gains for the sector.&nbsp;Experts have also pointed out another factor: a fear of stronger gun regulations leading to increased sales.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Stock Moves</h2>Outdoor Holding has been the top gainer with an over 80% year-to-date gain, compared to a 47% decline in 2024 (see chart). The niche e-commerce company is in the midst of a turnaround, marked by revenue growth, aggressive cost cuts, and its first quarterly net profit in more than three years in the September quarter.The company divested its ammunition manufacturing business for $75 million in April. More recently, it regained full compliance with Nasdaq listing rules and&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/outdoor-holding-company-announces-settlement-110000918.html">settled</a> an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission without a penalty.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:623/508;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_12_16_at_7_27_29_PM_png_311eda2df7.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-16 at 7.27.29 PM.png" width="623" height="508"></figure>&nbsp;Smith &amp; Wesson also pulled in modest stock gains this year, compared to a 25.5% drop last year. Although sales continue to slide amid industry-wide softness, a mix of new product launches, cost reductions, and supportive macro developments – such as the U.S. rescinding a Biden-era rule two months ago that imposed stringent export controls on civilian firearms, ammunition, and related parts – helped lift the stock.Under the new rule, most pistols, rifles, and non-long-barreled shotguns will still require export licenses, according to the U.S. Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security, or BIS.All other major gun stocks, including Sturm Ruger &amp; Co., American Outdoor Brands, and the newly listed GrabAGun Digital Holdings, have declined this year. With two major civic shootings happening in recent days — at Sydney’s Bondi Beach and at Brown University in Rhode Island — gun controls, and in turn, gun stocks, could again shoot into the limelight.On Stocktwits, the retail sentiment was ‘bearish’ for&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SWBI">SWBI</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/AOUT">AOUT</a>, and&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/PEW">PEW</a>, ‘neutral’ for&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/RGR">RGR</a>, and ‘bullish’ for&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/POWW">POWW</a>.
