@nemoglobal: Never Miss Out 📸➡️🤖 GoPro just did something wild: it's leaving action cameras behind to become an AI and defense optics company. And its stock soared 👇 💵 The deal GoPro (NASDAQ: GPRO) is merging with Starman Optical, a private US firm that makes optical parts for AI data centres. Starman takes ~90% for $285m ($1.14/share), GoPro's ~$92m debt gets repaid, existing shareholders keep ~10%, and it stays listed. 🔬 Why? A hidden asset GoPro's camera business has struggled (the stock's down ~96% from its 2014 peak, squeezed by DJI & Insta360). But it owns 2,500+ US patents in optics and imaging, the base for a pivot into the AI data-centre & defense markets (the same AI-infrastructure wave behind Nvidia's record results). 🚀 The reaction Shares surged ~40%+, even trading above the $1.14 offer (which can hint investors expect a higher bid). Wild twist: it had already jumped ~43% the day before, when YouTuber "Markiplier" revealed an 8.5% stake. It roughly doubled in two days. But keep perspective 🤔 ⚠️ It's a speculative, volatile sub-$2 stock that's already surged ⚠️ The deal still has to close, and you'd own ~10% of a very different, unproven company ⚠️ Pivoting to AI/defense optics is hard, and the business has been lossmaking ⚠️ A soaring price + an "AI" label ≠ a proven, profitable business 💡 The takeaway: loads of struggling companies are pivoting to AI right now. Always look past the buzzword, what does it actually make, who buys it, can it profit? 📲 Explore AI and tech stocks on Nemo.money, from $1, zero commission (uninvested cash earns 6% AER, paid daily in USD).
