Put order to buy 10000 ASBP at 0.22 will try with AISP under $5
I’m going to cut back on post s , dave… I prefer the ultra risk asset’s which aren’t for many … There’s very little, if any, respond to lower risk company’s …
I visit here but there is nothing, so i use other site to learn and understand,today it been very good day for me, instead of having over 90% cash, I bought all mega 7 stock and 2 kathy wood’s ETF , put 10k in each. also little addicted to option so brought 20 contract of YOU BOUGHT OPENING TRANSACTION PUT (UVIX) VS TRUST 2X LONG VIX JUN 27 25 $27 yesterday and paid $.80, sold toady at open, yes, I am up a lot, must be my luck, definitely not the skill

AI, security, and defense have been hot industries over the last few years, and they aren’t going to slow down anytime soon. To that end, a company that’s basically built itself to become a rising player straddling the three industries was bound to come onto my radar at some point. Enter Airship AI (NASDAQ:AISP), a company that’s developing the kind of real-time intelligence infrastructure and surveillance technology that government agencies, defense contractors, and other mission-critical enterprises are actively looking for. The timing is pretty spot on, in my opinion.
The thesis here is straightforward: Airship’s revenue has the potential to scale really quickly because of the growing demand for explainable, edge-deployable AI solutions that governments and large enterprises increasingly require. The market is generally moving away from centralized, black-box analytics toward auditable, local AI. And that sweet spot is where Airship currently operates.
So it’s a Buy, but why now? Well, Airship is in that rare stage where:
Product-market fit is visible and validated (it recently signed some follow-on seven-figure contracts)
Policy tailwinds are forming (AI adoption mandates, federal infrastructure modernization)
The stock is fairly stable now after all the volatility that came with its public listing in December 2023
In my view, this isn’t a “wait and see” speculative AI play. It’s a business with real traction, a strong mission fit, and a clear roadmap to scale. So, there’s more to that opportunity than long-term profitability. I think it’s a good play to get in before the valuation rerates, primarily due to contract acceleration, federal visibility, and index inclusion.
Company Overview Airship AI Holdings Inc. is a US company that provides AI-powered solutions for real-time video, audio, and sensor data processing. And these solutions mostly cater to security, defense, and other public sector clients. The company’s main USP is enabling edge-based data capture and analysis, which allows those agencies and organizations to deploy AI in real-time. Its product suite primarily consists of:
Acropolis Operating System Acropolis is an operating system that allows Airship’s customers and clients to take in, manage, and analyze data from multiple sources (think cameras, sensors, devices) at scale. The software enables them to get real-time situational awareness across federated environments. That is particularly important for government agencies working across numerous jurisdictions.
Outpost AI This is Airship’s edge compute platform (hardware & software), bringing AI inferencing to the edge. It’s computer-vision enabled and works with smart surveillance systems. That allows for tactical deployments and autonomous threat detection without needing to send data back to any central servers. Clearly, then, it’s an ideal fit for field assets in defense, law enforcement, and critical infrastructure.
Strategic Positioning in AI-Driven Security Going off the business’s trajectory over the last few years, it’s obvious that Airship is carving out its niche in a market that larger vendors haven’t caught up to, yet. We can see this with things like:
Product-Market Fit: Precision Over Platform Bloat Most legacy security systems work by receiving video data in central servers and then processing it. That setup comes with its challenges: latency, bandwidth costs, and security vulnerabilities. Airship’s Outpost AI allows its clients to process and analyze video and sensor data locally, in real-time, so there’s no need to stream data off-site. That helps:
Law enforcement operating in tactical or bandwidth-limited environments.
Federal agencies with strict data compliance requirements.
Logistics hubs needing real-time analytics across multiple nodes.
Meanwhile, Acropolis acts as the command layer, aggregating data from multiple edge points and allowing the people in charge to look at patterns, deploy assets, or flag any threats. All in real-time. When you combine the two, then, we can see that they make Airship a very attractive system-of-systems provider, not a single-tool vendor. That breadth is what wins government RFPs.
That also leads me to my next point.
Competitive Advantage: Speed, Focus, and Flexibility Airship’s products and systems have the advantage of being quick to customize for clients, no need for writing custom code or any of that. So there’s little delay when it comes to configuring them for specific needs.
They’re also vendor-neutral, which means that clients can use Acropolis, for example, to communicate with third-party and legacy sensors on-premise and or in the cloud. That’s an added benefit to the customer, too, because they can keep their existing infrastructure and save money on costs.
Bigger players, like defense contractors, have scale on their side, but their solutions typically aren’t this agile. Big Tech AI platforms, too, have data residency and opacity concerns, which isn’t exactly thrilling for public-sector buyers. So, Airship is right in that strategic middle, and we can see that reflected in its business so far.
Market Tailwinds and Policy Catalysts I can’t exactly be all bullish on a company like Airship going off its product strength alone, though. That’s where the environment comes in, and the tailwinds are looking promising.
National Security Spending Is Scaling — and Reprioritizing Globally, there’s a lot of money to be made in defense and national security. The budgets for these industries are growing every year, and in the US, the main growth areas are digital infrastructure, threat intelligence, and tactical AI. We can see this trend with the US defense budget for FY25, which has about $19 billion pencilled in for science, technology, and AI. Emerging tech that includes AI, cyber, and sensor fusion platforms.
Also, the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) have funding set aside for intelligent surveillance, border tech, and crime analytics. These are all areas where Airship’s systems are directly applicable, so the potential revenue scaling is extraordinary.
We can already see this with Airship landing in major government procurement indexes and having around $135 million in its revenue pipeline as of May 2025.
AI Mandates Are Moving From Policy to Purchase Orders Over the last few years, AI mandates have ramped up across the public sector, and the US government has issued several executive orders and frameworks around safe, explainable, and localized AI deployment. Of course, those mandates also affect sensitive use cases like those in law enforcement and national security.
It’s more than just regulatory noise. Many of those mandates and EOs have guidelines for how AI for national security & law enforcement can be used. So there’s a push for agencies to fund AI pilots and start using them across multi-year deployments. In this case, Airship’s advantage comes from already having legs in the room with its modular, edge-compute architecture and platforms.
Urban Intelligence and Critical Infrastructure Modernization This seems to be the least talked-about growth area for a company like Airship, and I’m not sure why. Perhaps it’s just not as exciting as defense or military spending. Still, the market for smart infrastructure is huge and growing quickly. Cities are in spending mode; everyone is trying to fix their traffic problems, prevent crime, and improve their incident response systems.
What they need is:
Real-time situational awareness.
Interoperability across agencies.
Edge processing that avoids centralized latency and privacy concerns.
Airship is in a great position to provide solutions to the modernization strategies for everything from municipal surveillance grids to emergency operations centers. That’s good news for the company, but it gets even better when you think about critical infrastructure like energy facilities, ports, and transportation hubs. These are likely to be or already upgrading their security systems as part of both public safety and anti-cyber measures. So, then, AI-driven platforms like Airship’s Acropolis aren’t just “nice to have” here — they’re becoming very important for insurance and compliance.
Global Instability Is Increasing The Demand For Real-Time Intelligence It goes without saying that the global appetite for situational awareness tools is higher these days, and it will only rise. From Ukraine to the Red Sea, and Taiwan to urban flashpoints, everyone needs tools like the ones Airship makes and delivers.
That demand is coming from Allied militaries and intelligence programs, defense contractors supplying foreign governments, and even humanitarian and peacekeeping missions. They all need smart, mobile infrastructure. Airship is one of a few US microcaps that delivers the edge-based AI for security that they need, so it’s in a fantastic position to tap both direct sales and subcontracting pipelines that are tied to these deployments. We can see this with its recent contracts, including a January announcement for a “seven-figure contract that includes ongoing health monitoring, technical and engineering support, and software maintenance, demonstrating the ability to provide revenue from a mix of professional services in addition to our traditional software and hardware offerings.”” …..Thanks to SA
I’m just gonna stick with defense/security stocks There is so much aggression everywhere – on both sides of the aisle… I’ve never witnessed so much everywhere The blame game gets Really old…
Thank you Bill for splitting the trading and investing community… When I do post on the ‘ investing ‘ community it is with the intention of ‘ investing ‘ in mind, not quick trades ( unless the opportunity presents itself )..but I would still like to maintain core positions, even if not as much as original allocations… Thanks again
helium is not a rare Earth element. Rare Earth elements are a group of seventeen specific metallic elements: the fifteen lanthanides (atomic numbers 57 to 71) plus scandium and yttrium. Helium is a noble gas and is a separate element, not included in this classification. While helium is considered an “endangered element” due to its scarcity on Earth and critical applications, this is distinct from being a “rare Earth element” in terms of classification. Helium’s limited availability is due to its production through natural radioactive decay, difficulty in extraction, and escape from the atmosphere due to its light weight and inertness.
, helium is considered a rare and non-renewable commodity on Earth, despite being the second most abundant element in the universe. While it’s abundant in space, helium is scarce on our planet due to its unique properties that cause it to readily escape Earth’s atmosphere. This, coupled with its increasing demand across various industries, makes it a valuable and potentially limited resource. Here’s why helium is considered rare and why its supply is a concern: Formation and Escape: Helium is primarily formed through the radioactive decay of elements like uranium and thorium in the Earth’s crust. However, once released, its molecules are so light that they escape Earth’s gravity and are lost to space. Limited Terrestrial Sources: Unlike many elements, helium is not readily replenished on Earth. While some helium is found trapped in natural gas deposits, these reserves are limited and often found in specific geographic locations. Growing Demand: Helium has numerous applications in various high-tech industries, including: Healthcare: MRI machines rely on liquid helium for cooling superconducting magnets. Semiconductors: Helium is crucial in the manufacturing of semiconductors and microchips. Aerospace: It’s used in rocket propulsion and other aerospace applications. Scientific Research: Helium is essential for research in fields like quantum mechanics and cryogenics. Other Industries: It’s also used in welding, leak detection, and even party balloons. Supply Chain Vulnerability: The limited and geographically concentrated sources of helium, combined with increasing demand, make the global helium supply chain vulnerable to disruptions. Recent shortages have highlighted the fragility of this supply chain. Price Fluctuations: The combination of limited supply and high demand has led to significant price increases for helium, with some grades costing significantly more than others. In summary, while helium is abundant in the universe, its scarcity on Earth, coupled with its growing use in various high-tech industries, makes it a valuable and potentially limited resource. This has led to concerns about future supply and price volatility. AI responses may include mistakes. Learn more
Brought SMMT at 19.75, and VKTX at $26 and TTD at $67.80 and UCIX at $21.20 this morning (vix was closed to lowest for year) ACHR at $9.80– $5k in each stock.
From eTN News: The new security situation in Iran and Israel is not only cancelling flights to these two countries, but also to neighboring countries. It makes travel between the US and Europe, as well as to India and Asia, more difficult. More cancellations and reroutings are expected on many routes worldwide.
Also, if Iran does close the Strait of Hormuz as suggested, the price of Oil will soar higher because up to 20% of global oil supplies take that shipping route.
Nvidia might want to watch its back: Rival chipmaker AMD just unveiled a new batch of AI chips it claims compare to the performance of Nvidia’s Blackwell family while delivering a 35x inference boost over its previous generation. The announcement earned endorsements from OpenAI’s Sam Altman, along with execs from Meta and xAI — a sign that they’re sticking behind AMD’s open-source approach, which lets AI companies mix and match components, keeping costs low.
Credit Spread Warning? Yes, it’s Red Alert for Private Equity lending!
This week, Jamie Dimon warned of looming credit market problems, so I built a Credit Spread Dashboard for my Navigator Report. Additionally, with the Middle East action causing extreme fluctuations in commodity and FX markets, I also built dashboards for these markets.
Addressing Dimon’s credit market remarks:
HY-Treasury spread has risen from 460 → 520 bps over 3 weeks — flashing a red alert.
IG-Treasury spread moved from 130 → 165 bps — entering warning territory.
Regarding Forex:
DXY (USD Index) is trending higher, confirming global dollar strength.
USD/JPY is rising steadily — Japan’s central bank remains dovish.
EUR/USD is declining — showing euro weakness versus the dollar.
USD/CAD declined — CAD slightly stronger or USD cooling.
GBP/USD has risen — showing moderate pound strength.
I have been building the tools necessary to support my plan to provide daily video reports, something I have never done before.

Hello baz22. What made you buy more maxn today? I bought a decent amount a while ago based on your recommendation. After doubling my money……you suggested taking my profit and playing with house money. But I’m a greedy greedy man and let it ride…..lol…….oops. after not listening to you I’m down 60%. What information are you trading with. Seems to me there is not a chance maxn will get their loan. Or do you sense cbp will allow product to cross the border. Currently I hold maxn, edit, bcrx, and mux. I think mux will have an incredible year
Moreso on contrary… Their supply chain reroute is coming around… Also, they go utility scale and their only true competition is FSLR … Plus, they make the best panels around.. charts are nice
Took my good profit from KLTO and put into RGTI this pm….. Remember, Quantinuum, just closed a $ billion quantum supply deal with Qatar…….with the ( today ) completed $ 350 million at-the-market offering for RGTI, something big is cooking
Finally I paid $2.77 and brought 2000 KLTO also brought more SNPX, I have to call fidelity to find out why I can not buy stock like MAXN and few other, may be it has to do with crypto???. my last SPY trade was stop out and lost little, I think SPY is going higher so will stay away from that trade for a while, Have lost of cash but afraid to buy any,– all stock are too high
Additionally, RFK Jr’s decision to fire all 17 members of the vaccine advisory council is a wise move. He says they were all conflicted. However, most of what we see these days with the government and its agencies is conflicted. How did RFK Jr or any of the other cabinet members get their jobs? The public didn’t vote them in, and as we know, Trump is the most transactional US president in history.
Your post on saturday for KLTO did not help me. I had a buy order for 5000 on monday and it open so high I got nothing, now it is at $1.47, it close friday at $0.20 and my order was for $0.22., last year on June 9th 2024 it close at $1.70 I may still buy it, will give it time to cool down. Baz–miss the dam stock???
… I had posted, and bought , a few weeks ago ( same range as Friday ) , and gave a brief summary then..Yes, I added today… Could this be One of the most important clinicals in our lifetime?… There’s a decent chance.. ** I wasn’t kidding about the $ 125.00 My guess is they’ll do an offering – but it may just rocket event more There’s only around 32 million shares out
SMCX. I have 200 0f them, got in very cheap few month ago at $ 25, I sold SMCX Dec-19-2025 $50 CALL for $14.50. two of them, when I look at it I was confuse, is it real???. But I got the money sold call on SMCI.SOXL I am not posing everything,
Kathy WOOD Look like everyone forgot her???
Her fund are in dump last three year or so.
I brought ARKW and ARKF last week, doing good so far, I think it is kathy’s time again,
Put order to buy 10000 ASBP at 0.22
will try with AISP under $5
…I truthfully like drone’s better than stationary surveillance… Competitive fields… military seems the way to go
I’m going to cut back on post s , dave… I prefer the ultra risk asset’s which aren’t for many … There’s very little, if any, respond to lower risk company’s …
I visit here but there is nothing, so i use other site to learn and understand,today it been very good day for me, instead of having over 90% cash, I bought all mega 7 stock and 2 kathy wood’s ETF , put 10k in each. also little addicted to option so brought 20 contract of YOU BOUGHT OPENING TRANSACTION PUT (UVIX) VS TRUST 2X LONG VIX JUN 27 25 $27 yesterday and paid $.80, sold toady at open,
yes, I am up a lot, must be my luck, definitely not the skill
If VIX goes under 17, will buy lots of call on UVIX that expires 30 days away
did got 1000 AISP at $4.99, hope it dont get stop out
As sure as I write, the puts come out….but ..take a look at one company in the defense/intelligence sector – AISP..- ongoing contract’s with the DOJ and DOD….

Helium has numerous applications in various high-tech industries, including:
Healthcare: MRI machines rely on liquid helium for cooling superconducting magnets.
Semiconductors: Helium is crucial in the manufacturing of semiconductors and microchips.
Aerospace: It’s used in rocket propulsion and other aerospace applications.
Scientific Research: Helium is essential for research in fields like quantum mechanics and cryogenics.
Other Industries: It’s also used in welding, leak detection, and even party balloons.
Supply Chain Vulnerability:
The limited and geographically concentrated sources of helium, combined with increasing demand, make the global helium supply chain vulnerable to disruptions. Recent shortages have highlighted the fragility of this supply chain.
Price Fluctuations:
The combination of limited supply and high demand has led to significant price increases for helium, with some grades costing significantly more than others.
In summary, while helium is abundant in the universe, its scarcity on Earth, coupled with its growing use in various high-tech industries, makes it a valuable and potentially limited resource. This has led to concerns about future supply and price volatility.

We all pay for the Israeli-Iranian conflict.
From eTN News: The new security situation in Iran and Israel is not only cancelling flights to these two countries, but also to neighboring countries. It makes travel between the US and Europe, as well as to India and Asia, more difficult. More cancellations and reroutings are expected on many routes worldwide.
Also, if Iran does close the Strait of Hormuz as suggested, the price of Oil will soar higher because up to 20% of global oil supplies take that shipping route.
Trumps cuts in alternative power sources will come back to show his ignorance

Treasury yields falling today is a war-related and temporary phenomenon.
Long-term, wartime is the only time in history you can count on inflation and higher yields.
Globalization has altered that dynamic somewhat due to supply chains that geopolitical events outside of wartime can disrupt.
But the Israeli strike against Iran (250 bombers and 330 major bombs) has caused a rush of money to safe havens, including Treasuries and Gold.

Credit Spread Warning? Yes, it’s Red Alert for Private Equity lending!
This week, Jamie Dimon warned of looming credit market problems, so I built a Credit Spread Dashboard for my Navigator Report. Additionally, with the Middle East action causing extreme fluctuations in commodity and FX markets, I also built dashboards for these markets.
Addressing Dimon’s credit market remarks:
Regarding Forex:
I have been building the tools necessary to support my plan to provide daily video reports, something I have never done before.
Bill,
sincerely appreciate the dashboard summaries. Looking forward to seeing and using the interim and final products 🙂

Bought vxrt..

Vaxart buy was after market…
Hello baz22. What made you buy more maxn today? I bought a decent amount a while ago based on your recommendation. After doubling my money……you suggested taking my profit and playing with house money. But I’m a greedy greedy man and let it ride…..lol…….oops. after not listening to you I’m down 60%. What information are you trading with. Seems to me there is not a chance maxn will get their loan. Or do you sense cbp will allow product to cross the border. Currently I hold maxn, edit, bcrx, and mux. I think mux will have an incredible year
Moreso on contrary… Their supply chain reroute is coming around… Also, they go utility scale and their only true competition is FSLR … Plus, they make the best panels around.. charts are nice
Needs volume

TIL continues an incredible run
Up a further +6.6% today
Additionally, RFK Jr’s decision to fire all 17 members of the vaccine advisory council is a wise move. He says they were all conflicted. However, most of what we see these days with the government and its agencies is conflicted. How did RFK Jr or any of the other cabinet members get their jobs? The public didn’t vote them in, and as we know, Trump is the most transactional US president in history.
Barron’s magazine this week has a Positive article about TIL/SMMT and few others,

Your post on saturday for KLTO did not help me.
I had a buy order for 5000 on monday and it open so high I got nothing, now it is at $1.47, it close friday at $0.20 and my order was for $0.22., last year on June 9th 2024 it close at $1.70
I may still buy it, will give it time to cool down.
Baz–miss the dam stock???
… I had posted, and bought , a few weeks ago ( same range as Friday ) , and gave a brief summary then..Yes, I added today… Could this be One of the most important clinicals in our lifetime?… There’s a decent chance..
** I wasn’t kidding about the $ 125.00
My guess is they’ll do an offering – but it may just rocket event more
There’s only around 32 million shares out
The work presented was regarding anti aging… That in and of itself is intriguing…but the potential to address Alzheimer’s and the like is astounding… Perhaps ( ? ) this is buying BTC at $ 5……..??
