GET OVER HERE AND BANK! Scorpion's Fiery Market Watch!

Charter and Cox Merge: GET OVER HERE... to Bigger Bandwidth!

Bah! These realms of cable companies think they can merge and become stronger? Charter gobbling up Cox for $34.5 billion eh? It's like Quan Chi trying to absorb Shang Tsung's power! But will it truly make them unbeatable? Charter shares rose 7%… fools they celebrate too soon. I will be watching… and waiting to see if their connection is as strong as my hellfire!

Applied Materials' China Hiccup: Finish It... With Scrutiny!

Applied Materials missed revenue targets because of China? Pathetic! They blame it on a "weaker China" but offer no real explanation? Lies! Deception! Such weakness deserves a fatality! Shares fell 5%? They should be grateful I haven't unleashed my spear upon them. JPMorgan Wells Fargo and Morgan Stanley lower their price targets? Good. Let them suffer for their incompetence.

Caterpillar and United Rentals Get a Reprieve: Trade Wars Stay Their Hand... For Now!

UBS upgraded Caterpillar and United Rentals because of U.S. China trade talks? They believe the downside is limited? Hmph. "Uncertainty will drag on demand," they say? As if I need some analyst to tell me that! These Earthrealm traders are blind. They see only the surface. I see the chaos beneath! Still a temporary reprieve is… acceptable. For now.

AMD's AI Alliance: Toasty!

Barclays boosted AMD to $130 because of AI projects with Saudi Arabia? Impressive! AMD and Nvidia forging alliances... Reminds me of when Sub Zero and I briefly allied against a greater evil! But can they trust their allies? The sands of time shift and alliances crumble. Still $130? Perhaps I should invest… FOR THE CLAN!

Dick's Sporting and Foot Locker: A FATALITY... For Competition!

Dick's Sporting buys Foot Locker? Barclays lowers the price target but maintains a buy rating? Confusing! They say it's no longer a clean growth story but it will create a global leader? Bah! Double speak! It is a battle for dominance. One claims victory over the other. But will it truly last? Only time... and my hellfire... will tell.

Netflix Gets a Boost: GET OVER HERE... to My Streaming Queue!

Netflix to $1,380? By Canaccord? Great Upfronts and progress on ads? Ha! So the Earthrealmers are still drawn to their flickering screens. Very well let them be entertained. But know this: Even the greatest entertainment cannot escape the inevitable... DEATH! And perhaps a new season...
