$Circle Internet Corp.(CRCL)$ CRCL at $150 by year-end? I wouldn't rule it out. At these levels, the market seems to be underestimating Circle's long-term growth potential. If execution continues and sentiment turns, $150 could prove to be a very achievable target.

Stablecoin card spending hit a record $1.03B in July, up another 16% MoM and roughly 200% YoY. More than 10 million purchases were made during the month.

$Circle Internet Corp.(CRCL)$ There's huge short interest here and only a couple hundred million in fails to deliver, so honestly, why not push it back to the 130s. Sheez.

$Circle Internet Corp.(CRCL)$ The move above $69 likely pushes around 30% of that large $66–$75 short cluster straight into the red. It looks like the first wave of shorts is starting to feel some pressure now, shifting from break-even to actively losing money.
$Circle Internet Corp.(CRCL)$ Lorenzo Valente, an analyst at Cathie Wood's Ark fund, recently put out a piece on Cloudflare's most recent earnings call. The numbers projected for agentic transactions, the exact kind Circle's L1 blockchain Arc is going to specialize in, are massive. Call it disruptive, call it transformational. Circle looks like the best positioned company to execute on this right now. A lot of people missed the most important earnings call of the week. It was Cloudflare. The wallet announcement got attention, but the real alpha was in the call itself.
