El Pollo Loco: Holding Up Well In A Tough Restaurant Backdrop (Upgrade) — Positive

LOCO   Seeking Alpha — September 03, 2025

Shares are down ~20% over the past year, creating an attractive value-buying opportunity at current low valuation multiples near 12x P/E (about half of where most restaurant peers trade).

Don't Give Up On DeFi Technologies Just Yet — Positive

DEFT   Seeking Alpha — September 03, 2025

Despite a 37% drop in DEFT shares, I see this as a buying opportunity given strong Q2 results and raised FY25 guidance. Crypto cycle theory and technicals point to a potential altcoin rally, which would directly benefit DeFi Technologies' revenue and margins. Valuation remains attractive, with a forward P/E of just 5.15, offering room for multiple expansion if assumptions are met.
