🐷 PIG ROAST

FIG +13.2% PYMNTS: Figma raises guidance after surviving Claude's design apocalypse, proving humans still need fancy interfaces to make ugly websites.

ENPH +10.2% MarketBeat: Enphase unveils roadmap to power AI data centers because apparently solar panels are the new pickaxes in the gold rush.

SEDG +22.9% 247WallSt: SolarEdge up 244% in a year, because nothing screams "buy high" like chasing a stock that's already tripled.

VG +9.3% Fool: Venture Global soars on LNG ambitions, because shipping expensive gas across oceans is apparently the new Bitcoin mining.

BRUN +13.7% GlobeNewswire: Boost Run debuts with $940M in contracts, proving SPACs can still find creative ways to separate investors from money.

CBRS -10.1% Fool: Cerebras takes on Nvidia and immediately drops 10%, learning that challenging the king requires more than big chips.

IREN -9.3% Benzinga: IREN pivots from crypto to AI infrastructure, because when Bitcoin mining dies, you rebrand as "AI power solutions."

IONQ -9.6% Fool: IonQ quantum computing stock drops despite weekly surge, because even quantum mechanics can't solve overvaluation problems simultaneously.

💬 Word on the Street

While Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) quietly added up to $50,000 in Carrier Global (CARR) shares, insiders at Crown Electrokinetics (CRWV) stampeded for the exits with $1.3 billion in sales—part of a brutal $4.4 billion net outflow as smart money turned decisively bearish. Meanwhile, after hours, SolarEdge Technologies (SEDG) and Enphase Energy (ENPH) are suddenly the talk of Wall Street again, with SolarEdge up 244% over the past year and Enphase pivoting to power AI data centers in what looks like the energy sector's latest plot twist. Here's what smart money did with their actual dollars today.

📖 HOW TO READ THIS REPORT

The Big Idea: When insiders, institutions, AND politicians all bet on the same stock? That's convergence — and historically, these aligned signals tend to pack more punch than solo moves. We track the smart money so you don't have to.

Signal Badges

ETF Institutional funds adding/removing positions
INSIDER Corporate executives buying/selling their own stock
CONGRESS Politicians making trades (yes, we see you)

Momentum Icons

▲ + Buying Rising Stock: Smart money accumulating as price rises — ideal alignment
+ Buying Falling Stock: Smart money accumulating while price drops — falling knife risk
▲ - Selling Rising Stock: Smart money exiting while price still rising — warning signal
- Selling Falling Stock: Smart money exiting as price drops — confirms downtrend

The Bottom Line: Convergence + aligned momentum = strongest setups. Convergence + divergent momentum = proceed with caution. This isn't financial advice — it's intelligence. What you do with it is on you.

😱 VOLATILITY & FEAR

Market volatility indicators are presenting a mixed picture, with the VIX holding steady at 17.26 in the normal range despite a modest 1.1% weekly increase, suggesting equity market participants remain relatively calm. In contrast, the MOVE index surged 42.6% over the week to 19.90, signaling a notable pickup in bond market volatility expectations even though absolute levels remain low by historical standards. This divergence between equity and fixed income volatility measures indicates that bond traders are pricing in increased uncertainty around interest rate movements while stock market fear gauges show little sign of stress.

💧 FED LIQUIDITY

Net Liquidity: $6.73 Trillion

↑ $19.0B WoW

As of May 13, Fed net liquidity stands at $6.73 trillion, up $19.0 billion week-over-week, indicating an expansion in available liquidity that historically correlates with supportive conditions for risk assets. The next H.4.1 release drops Thursday, May 21, which will show whether this liquidity expansion continues or reverses.

📅 ECONOMIC CALENDAR Surprise Index: +1.0

Yesterday's manufacturing data delivered meaningful upside surprises, with the NY Empire State Index surging to 19.6 versus expectations of 7.5—its strongest reading since late 2023—while Industrial Production rose 0.7% against a 0.3% forecast, reversing the prior month's contraction and suggesting factory activity is stabilizing after months of softness. Positioning data showed speculators extended their net short stance on the S&P 500 to -143.8K contracts from -103.9K, the most bearish posture since early 2024, while Nasdaq 100 positioning flipped negative to -16.0K from a small net long of 1.2K, reflecting growing caution despite strong economic prints. Today's housing market sentiment gauge and tomorrow's housing starts and permits data come into focus as the sector remains depressed, with permits at 1.422 million units in March still hovering near cyclical lows last seen consistently during the 2008-2011 period, while Fed Governor Waller's speech tomorrow could provide clues on the central bank's reaction function given the recent string of firmer activity data pushing the Economic Surprise Index back into positive territory at +1.0.

📝 Today's Summary

Smart money flows reveal a pronounced technology rotation as institutions added positions across major names, with META drawing additions from 5,907 ETFs, INTC from 5,648 ETFs, and CSCO from 5,421 ETFs, while concurrent profit-taking in LLY reflected 2,897 ETF removals from large-cap pharmaceuticals. Insider accumulation clustered heavily at ALKT with 12 insiders purchasing shares, alongside RSG and NOMD each attracting 7 insiders, though this was overshadowed by massive distribution at CRWV where 342 insiders sold approximately $1.3 billion in shares and LTH where 18 insiders disposed of $735.7 million. Congressional activity showed Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar making two separate purchases of Carrier Global Corporation (CARR), Rep. Gilbert Cisneros both purchasing DoorDash (DASH) and selling Flex Ltd. (FLEX), while Rep. Greg Stanton divested from Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (TCNNF) and Rep. April Delaney reduced her Morningstar Inc. (MORN) position, presenting no clear directional sector bias from Capitol Hill participants. Market structure shows increasingly fragmented leadership as the VIX held steady at 17.26 with only a 1.1% weekly increase, contrasting sharply with the MOVE index surging 42.6% to 19.90 and signaling bond traders are pricing substantially more interest rate uncertainty than equity volatility gauges reflect. Breadth patterns confirm this narrow participation, with Semiconductors, Real Estate, and Technology posting participation rates between 71-100% while Healthcare, Consumer Discretionary, and Utilities languish below 30%, creating a barbell structure where the Nasdaq's 52% breadth significantly outpaces the S&P 500's 46% and Dow's 43%. Speculators have grown increasingly cautious despite firm economic data, extending S&P 500 net short positioning to -143.8K contracts from -103.9K and flipping Nasdaq 100 positioning negative to -16.0K from a small net long of 1.2K, marking the most bearish stance since early 2024 even as the NY Empire State Index surged to 19.6 versus expectations of 7.5 and Industrial Production rose 0.7% against a 0.3% forecast. Twenty-eight companies report earnings today with institutional positioning already diverging ahead of results, as NBIS and BIDU experienced recent accumulation while RYAAY and BRC saw distribution patterns from large investors, following yesterday's session where SGML declined 22.3% and RBC dropped 6.0% post-results. The disconnect between improving manufacturing data—with the Economic Surprise Index back in positive territory at +1.0—and increasingly defensive speculator positioning alongside surging bond volatility creates a critical watch point, particularly as housing market indicators remain depressed with permits at 1.422 million units hovering near cyclical lows last seen during 2008-2011. Fed Governor W

Key themes: Watch convergence signals closely. Stocks where insiders, institutions, and politicians agree tend to show stronger directional moves.
