MarketBeat Analyst Thomas Hughes joins the show for a deep dive on a company that IPO'd earlier this year and just posted a rough earnings report... but Thomas explains why the sell-off is completely missing the bigger story. Thomas breaks down why this company plays a critical role in AI inference (the next major phase of the AI boom), how its chip technology sidesteps the memory bottlenecks plaguing the rest of the industry, and why its multi-billion dollar backlog suggests the growth story is just getting started. He also covers the risks, including the staggered lockup period and what it means for near-term volatility.
