Below is the infographic by Earnings Whispers for the upcoming week:

The most anticipated earnings releases for the week of October 6, 2025, are Constellation Brands #STZ, Penguin Solutions #PENG, Applied Digital #APLD, Delta Air Lines #DAL, Byrna Technologies #BYRN, Tilray #TLRY, McCormick & Company #MKC, PepsiCo #PEP, and Aehr Test Systems #AEHR.

Charts

SPX

Sits currently at 6715.79, RSI 69.23, 3.37% above a rising 50SMA.

14.44% YTD

We had yet another week in which the S&P 500 made a new ATH (6750.87)

Distribution days in the last week: 0

COMPQ

Sits currently at 22780.51 RSI 67.79, 4.59% above a rising 50SMA.

18.15% YTD

Distribution days in the last week: 1 (although 3 in the last 10 days)

BTC (currently Long)

Currently $123178.6, 8.15% 50SMA and 16.5% above 200SMA.

30.4% YTD.

BTC held the 112k level support level and has been making ATH’s this weekend. Sign of things to come for the equity markets or is BTC merely reflecting the continued devaluation of the $? Staying long.

BABA (currently Long at $72 average)

Currently trades at $188.03 RSI 76.97 and 57.28% above 200SMA.

+125.08% YTD

BABA has traded up for 9 weeks now and is amidst a stage 2 breakout. For the last several weeks I have been stating that my BABA target was 175-180 and noted that “at this level would be ~17x 2027 earnings and a PEG of <1 still”

We have clearly surpassed those levels, and given that the RSI is over 82 on the weekly chart, some consolidation or backfill may be due before a possible move to 220 (Munger breakeven level!).

IREN (No position)

Currently trades at $50.46 RSI 76.50 and 246.26% (!) above 200SMA

382.41% YTD

IREN is a company that has pivoted from Bitcoin mining to hosting AI infrastructure recently. It has a market cap of ~14B now and is expected to do ~1.2B revenue (which has been revised up from ~700M at the start of the year). This is a company I am looking at but difficult to buy it 246% above above the SMA 200. Would like to see it consolidate and thus I am in a couple of other AI/HPC companies instead.

Now we will take a look at notable portfolio changes from the previous week and then Current Portfolio Holdings (Position size, cost basis, and commentary on each holding regarding the intended holding period and any planned activity)


Notable portfolio changes in previous week (all updated live in subscriber channels):

No exits but raised cash to around 14% level.
