Why don't you write real articles any more?  Why do we really care if your personal portfolio is up or down? You don't write why or say anything substantive at all.

I am interested in $SOUN but this article doesn't actually say anything of value.  Can you tell me more about it?  Do you think it will go up?  It's never recovered from its initial high in May '22, but has kind of been all over the place since.
