Solid Q3 Results. The company reported Q3 revenue of $85.1 million, beating our estimate of $80.0 million by 6.4%. Adj. EBITDA of $6.5 million, strongly outperformed our estimate of $1.7 million by 289%. The strong operating results were driven by growth in the wholesale and direct-to-consumer channels, its e-commerce platform, and by effective tariff mitigation strategies.

Digital momentum. Notably, the company’s e-commerce platform experienced triple-digit traffic growth late in the quarter, creating a strong backdrop for the launch of its dropship initiative. While the initiative currently offers only footwear, the company highlighted encouraging early results and plans to expand product offerings, leveraging its partnership with Authentic Brands. In our view, the dropship strategy provides the company with a capital-efficient way to broaden product offerings while gathering customer insight.

Russell 2000 Scores Record as Rate-Cut Hopes Boost Small-Cap Appetite

The Russell 2000 hit a fresh record as investors rotated into small-cap equities on renewed optimism that looser monetary policy could be on the horizon. The benchmark’s leadership reflects a market dynamic in which hopes for easier financial conditions are outweighing pockets of economic strength that have pushed yields higher across parts of the curve.

A string of private and partial data released ahead of the Federal Reserve’s final policy decision for the year painted a mixed picture of the U.S. economy. Weekly payroll indicators showed a marked improvement compared with recent losses, reversing a short stretch of weak readings and signaling that private-sector hiring has regained momentum in recent weeks. Meanwhile, labor demand metrics measuring job openings remained elevated, with vacancies concentrated in sectors such as retail, healthcare, transportation and manufacturing. That combination suggests employers are still searching for workers even as the pace of hiring fluctuates month to month.

Small business sentiment also ticked up, ending a multi-month slide and reflecting firmer revenue expectations and plans to add staff. At the same time, concerns persist about capital spending intentions and tight credit conditions, factors that temper enthusiasm for a broad-based recovery. Taken together, the data show a labor market that remains resilient in parts, but uneven across industries and firm sizes.

Market participants have zeroed in on how the Fed will interpret this mosaic of signals. Stronger-than-expected reads in select indicators have pushed short-term yields higher in a curve-flattening move that suggests traders are re-pricing the odds for near-term policy easing. The level of dissent within the Federal Open Market Committee will be closely watched; a higher number of officials opposing a December cut would signal persistent caution and could damp investor expectations for aggressive easing next year.

The Russell 2000’s rebound is notable because small caps tend to be more sensitive to financial conditions and credit availability. In an environment where rate-cut prospects rise, borrowing costs for smaller companies fall relative to a no-cut scenario, improving the outlook for earnings growth and refinancing. That dynamic has attracted reallocations away from megacap tech names and toward cyclical and domestically focused firms that stand to benefit from cheaper financing and a healthier consumer.

Yet the backdrop is not without risk. A recent pick-up in yield volatility and signs that some central banks are nearing the end of their easing cycles in other economies add uncertainty for global liquidity. Additional data surprises could quickly recalibrate expectations, and market pricing already reflects a degree of vulnerability to upside surprises in inflation or employment.

For investors, the current market action underscores the importance of monitoring both macro signals and monetary policy cues. Small caps have led the charge on the upside, but their outperformance is tied to the narrative of easier policy ahead. Should that narrative unravel, leadership could shift again.

As the Fed approaches its next meeting, markets will continue to weigh the tug of mixed economic data against the growing desire for lower interest rates. The Russell 2000’s new high is as much a reflection of positioning for future policy as it is a barometer of confidence in the domestic economic cycle.

SpaceX’s Potential IPO Could Ignite a $2.9 Trillion Wave of Public Listings

SpaceX’s potential IPO is shaping up to be one of the most pivotal market events of the decade, with implications that reach far beyond the company itself. Analysts estimate that a SpaceX listing could help unlock nearly $3 trillion worth of value tied up in large private companies that have avoided the public markets for years. The anticipation surrounding this single event is already pushing investors, bankers, and late-stage startups to rethink the divide between private and public valuations.

After the blockbuster IPO wave of 2021, the market grew unusually quiet. Many of the world’s most valuable private companies, including SpaceX, Stripe, and ByteDance, chose to continue raising funds privately. This allowed them to grow far larger than the typical public-market debutant while sidestepping the scrutiny of quarterly reporting. SpaceX sits at the top of this group, with private valuations ranging from $800 billion to a possible $1.5 trillion. A listing of that size would instantly become the largest in history and would test the limits of both investor appetite and market infrastructure.

Despite the concerns, the demand appears strong. SpaceX is viewed as a company that combines scale, technological leadership, and global relevance. Its advancements in reusable rockets, crewed orbital launches, and satellite internet have created capabilities unmatched in the private sector. Starlink alone now provides high-speed connectivity to millions of users, and the company’s planned direct-to-cell network has gained additional momentum through strategic spectrum acquisitions.

The company’s revenue trajectory adds to the optimism. Estimates place 2025 revenue at roughly $15 billion, with expectations of reaching more than $22 billion the following year. These figures put SpaceX among the highest-earning private firms in the world, though some observers argue that such revenue still leaves questions about trillion-dollar valuations. For many investors, the financials need to support not only growth but also profitability and scale under the discipline of the public markets.

Governance is another area under scrutiny. SpaceX operates in a unique position, driven by an aggressive engineering culture and long-term missions that include the development of Starship and eventual human flights to Mars. These projects are capital-intensive and often involve timelines that do not align naturally with short-term shareholder expectations. Going public would introduce new oversight, regulatory obligations, and investor influence, potentially altering the company’s traditionally independent operating style.

Another open question is what path SpaceX might take to enter the public markets. A traditional IPO would require raising tens of billions of dollars if even a small percentage of the company were sold. Some market participants believe a direct listing could be more practical, especially for a company that does not need to raise fresh capital and already has a large institutional shareholder base.

Regardless of the route, a SpaceX listing in 2026 would represent a watershed moment. It could reopen the window for many large private firms that have delayed going public and force a reevaluation of how extreme private-market valuations translate to public markets. If successful, it may trigger a wave of mega-IPOs that reshape market dynamics for years to come.

Why Critical Minerals Could Be the Next Big Frontier for Small-Cap Investors

The global shift toward electrification is accelerating, and with it comes a renewed focus on the minerals that make modern energy and technology possible. Lithium, nickel, graphite, phosphate, rare earths, and other essential materials are the backbone of batteries, solar panels, electric vehicles, and grid-scale storage. As nations push to secure supply chains and reduce dependence on foreign imports, the critical minerals sector is becoming one of the most strategically important areas in global markets. For small-cap investors, this creates a compelling landscape of early-stage opportunities.

Large producers tend to dominate the headlines, but the real innovation and discovery often originate in the junior and small-cap space. These companies take on the high-risk, early exploration work that can eventually create meaningful supply for downstream industries. While these stocks can be volatile, they also offer leverage to rising demand and tightening supply conditions that can dramatically reprice assets once the market recognizes their potential.

One example of this emerging potential can be seen in the phosphate segment. Phosphate is best known for its role in agriculture, but it is increasingly valuable as a component in lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries. This chemistry has become a preferred option for EV manufacturers and grid-storage systems due to its safety profile, long cycle life, and lower cost. As LFP adoption expands, the need for battery-grade phosphate grows alongside it.

Emerging growth companies such as First Phosphate have positioned themselves within this shift. While still small-cap in size, the focus on high-purity phosphate projects in geopolitically stable regions aligns with what major battery and automotive manufacturers are now seeking: secure, traceable, and environmentally responsible supply. These are qualities that the North American market in particular is trying to build as part of a broader strategy to reduce reliance on overseas sources.

Beyond phosphate, other critical minerals are facing similar supply-demand pressures. Graphite remains essential for battery anodes, yet most production is concentrated in a single country. Rare earth elements are required for EV motors and wind turbines, but refining capacity is limited and slow to build. Nickel and manganese face challenges tied to environmental impacts and inconsistent global supply. In each of these segments, small-cap exploration and development companies are working to advance projects that could eventually scale into meaningful contributors to the supply chain.

For investors willing to put in the research, the small-cap critical minerals sector offers exposure to themes that are likely to play out over decades. Governments are investing heavily in domestic mineral strategies, electrification continues to expand worldwide, and technology companies are demanding reliable inputs to meet their production goals. These forces create a long runway for companies that can deliver high-purity materials at competitive costs.

Small-cap investing in this space still requires discipline. Projects take time to develop, capital needs can be significant, and not every discovery becomes a mine. But for investors looking for early entry points into the minerals reshaping the global energy landscape, this sector provides a combination of macro tailwinds and company-specific catalysts that can create real opportunity when approached carefully.

Michael Burry Turns Bullish on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac as Possible Relisting Nears

Michael Burry, the famed investor known for predicting the 2008 housing market crash, is once again at the center of attention — this time for a surprisingly bullish stance on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. In a lengthy blog post published Monday, Burry revealed he holds sizable positions in both government-sponsored enterprises and believes their long-awaited return to public markets may be close. The disclosure has fueled excitement among investors who have followed the Fannie and Freddie saga for more than a decade.

According to Burry, a relisting of the mortgage-finance giants is “nearly upon us.” His detailed post explored the political, regulatory, and financial steps that must occur before the companies can be fully released from government control. Both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were placed into conservatorship during the 2008 crisis, and since then, multiple administrations have debated how to reform or privatize them. Burry argues that conditions are finally shifting toward a path back to Wall Street.

Michael Burry’s renewed interest in the housing-finance sector is significant given his historical role in identifying weaknesses in the mortgage market before the financial collapse. He reminded readers of this history by including excerpts from an older note in which he criticized the agencies and described his earlier investments in credit-default swaps tied to their debt. This time, however, Burry says he did not become bullish on their common stock until after Donald Trump’s presidential win last year, which he believes increased the likelihood of policy changes that benefit shareholders.

In the post, Burry stated that he owns both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac common stock “in good size,” and suggested that the offering price in any IPO will play a major role in determining their true intrinsic value. He highlighted three major changes regulators would need to make before a public offering could occur: easing capital requirements, converting certain preferred shares into common stock, and reducing the government’s senior claims on future profits. Without addressing the last issue, Burry warned that common shares could be “worthless.”

Despite the optimism, he also cautioned that the path to an IPO remains “steep, windy, and rocky,” noting that the political process could still slow progress. Shares of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac reacted positively to his commentary, rising more than 3% on Tuesday and gaining over 15% so far this month. The stocks, which trade over-the-counter, remain highly volatile as investors digest shifting expectations.

Burry’s views arrive shortly after longtime shareholder Bill Ackman proposed a plan on social media to relist the companies on the New York Stock Exchange. Meanwhile, analysts such as Bose George at Keefe Bruyette & Woods remain cautious, arguing that common shareholders still face significant downside risks if reforms stall or if the government opts to convert preferred shares in a way that dilutes existing holders.

Whether Michael Burry’s thesis proves correct remains to be seen, but his involvement has injected new momentum into one of the most closely watched restructuring stories in U.S. finance.
