$SMCI Rosenblatt analyst Hans Mosesmann raised the price target on the Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ: SMCI) to $1,300 from $700, citing “continued momentum in AI computing.” “Key to the story is for investors to consider that the company is benefiting not only from secular AI growth (over 50% CAGR over next several years), but material share gains,” Mosesmann wrote in a Monday note. “We anticipate these gains to reach double digits in the next couple of years, up from the current mid-single digits, with a particular focus on enterprise,” he added. The analyst pointed out that the integration of liquid cooling technology is a pivotal factor in the expansion of cloud capabilities for AI, viewing it as a significant catalyst for hyper-scale engagement. Traditional Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs) in Asia and conventional server Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are not well-positioned to quickly adapt to the diverse and fast-evolving demands for compute rack-level configurations in the rapidly growing AI sector. “We stress, if Supermicro can gain share in the rather stagnant Xeon general purpose shifts in over a decade with their U.S. based centric manufacturing, imagine chaos in timelines, liquid cooling (all in the U.S.), and significant portfolio coverage,” Mosesmann said. SMCI shares fell over 1% in premarket trading Tuesday.

Equity ownership is one of the most powerful forms of wealth creation—and more companies than ever are offering it to employees as compensation. But learning how it works hasn’t been easy. Until now. Equity 101 is a free course on the basics of equity: crt.cx/3IMFfBh

I’ve been investing through @K9Ventures for ~12 years now since 2009. It’s been over 48 investments and every time I’m approving the wire for a new investment I’m still a bit afraid/stressed out. 😰 Here is hoping that that feeling never goes away. It keeps me grounded and real.

It’s painful when the perfect candidate declines your offer. I’ve helped 3 founders close critical hires in the last 48 hours. Here’s the closing advice I give after recruiting 2k people at @DoorDash and @cartainc 👇

Recruiting is the biggest challenge for early-stage companies. I led Recruiting @DoorDash from 50 -> 800 employees. Here's how we built a world-class team before DoorDash was mainstream 👇👇👇

How do you determine comp for your first 5 hires? Your next 100? Do you need a new equity refresh model? How do you compensate your team now that they're in different locations? We built Carta Total Comp to help you answer these questions & more. crt.cx/3nvNwR9
