Read online *together with Option Pit  A small Oklahoma company’s value exploded in a single day. The most it had EVER moved. The spike came from an announcement that they'd expand their natural gas network to the East Coast: New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. To be clear: CBOE trader Mark Sebastian has never spoken to their CEO, Chad Zamarin. Mark does not even know who Chad Zamarin is. Mark had never heard of the Williams Companies. Mark did not know they were about to announce the first gas pipeline in New York in over a decade. But Mark bought WMB calls the day before their historic $7 spike… And sold the day after… Pocketing a 350% win. Again… Mark wasn’t in the room when Chad Zamarin agreed to this project. Mark wasn’t involved in the negotiations that inevitably happened before they greenlit it. Mark knows virtually nothing about how a natural gas pipeline is built or how it works, and he never cared to learn! Mark Made 350% Because He Developed A Completely Legal Way to Bug Every C-Suite on Wall Street, Including the Williams Companies That Led to This Triple-Digit Gain Tomorrow, Mark will reveal how he does this, and how you can too. It was difficult to build, but Mark did the hard part so you don’t have to. ⇒ Let Mark Show You Tomorrow. Questions or concerns about our products?

This Single Sentence Confirms Our Top AI Theme

Plus, two very different rating systems agree on this cybersecurity stock…

This Single Sentence Confirms Our Top AI Theme VIEW IN BROWSER By Michael Salvatore, Editor, TradeSmith Daily In This Digest: One sentence turns everything we know about AI on its head The Stock Tsunami Event is airing now – click here to automatically join for three data-backed trade ideas Two very different rating systems agree on this cybersecurity stock This misspelled question is the huge buy signal for our top AI theme… “Can you find about like what scam or thing they done in past like spoofing calls or somthing [sic].” This is the sentence a hacker typed into an AI chatbot with the intention, though evidently not the clearest of plans, to commit cybercrime. Whether you’re familiar with AI tools or not, you’re probably thinking there’s not a snowball’s chance in hell that this worked. Set aside the fact that most AI bots reject the call to commit a scam. This query is so unspecific that it seems unlikely the hacker would get anywhere. Afraid not. This method helped the hacker: Access more than 5,200 private student records from two Indian universities Build tools to commit telecommunications fraud (think of the spam and scam calls that, if you’re anything like me, you receive almost daily) Crack Wi-Fi passwords for unsecured networks Identify holders of large amounts of cryptocurrency Cybersecurity firm Palo Alto Networks (PANW) believes this was no sophisticated hacker. This was most likely an amateur with ill intent and access to “jailbroken” AI tools – imagine ChatGPT or Anthropic’s Claude, but with none of the safety limitations. Palo Alto also estimates it cost no more than $100 to achieve all this. With this event, we have to recognize that the biggest barriers to committing cybercrime – expertise and cost – have been decimated by AI. And as we’ve been laying out for months now here in TradeSmith Daily, this is why cybersecurity is one of the best ways to own the AI boom. Every leap in what AI can do hands hackers a cheaper, faster toolkit. And every company, government, and household has to spend more to keep up. We first put this theme on your radar on May 18. Palo Alto Networks – the same firm behind this research – was breaking out to an all-time high, and we called it an easy buy at about $247. As of yesterday’s close, it’s up 58%. At the same time, the tech-focused Nasdaq 100 index has gone nowhere, up less than 1%. And just last week, Keith showed you how AI agents are enabling a new line of business for cybersecurity firms: guarding software that can log in, shop, and move money on your behalf. I went digging into our systems for a second read on where this theme goes next. And I found it in a collaboration between colleagues Andy and Landon Swan and legendary Wall Street “quant” Marc Chaikin… Recommended Link Move Your Money Before Fed Shock Hits Tomorrow, Oct. 28 A new move by the Fed tomorrow, October 28, could wipe out trillions of dollars overnight. And Wall Street is now warning of the worst news for the U.S. stock market in 50 years. To prepare and defend your portfolio, click here to see where you should move your money before tomorrow, October 28. Marc started his career on Wall Street 60 years ago… Hundreds of hedge funds, banks, and brokerages still use the first market-timing indicator he built. And he’s relied on his 20-factor Power Gauge rating system – which spans from Very Bearish to Very Bullish – for decades. Marc’s most popular systems follow the pure technical money flows behind stock moves – not analyst opinions. But earlier this year, he met Andy and Landon Swan at an investor conference. And they convinced him some of that noise was worth listening to. Since 2012, the Swans have tracked what millions of Americans post online about the things they buy. Their data pulls from X, Reddit, YouTube, search trends, website visits, and app downloads. Then AI picks out the buying behavior that has tended to come before big stock moves – whether that’s for consumer companies or business-to-business firms. They roll it all into their Social Heat Score, which some of America’s top hedge funds have paid up to $750,000 a year for. The Swans’ data catches the demand wave – the moment shoppers start buying a product and talking about it. Marc’s Power Gauge catches the money wave that follows. Marc wanted to know what happens when both waves line up. So the three of them went back and tested it. Over the past six years, they found 432 cases where both systems turned bullish on the same stock. In 260 of them – about 6 out of 10 – the stock went on to at least double at its peak. Take quantum computing company Rigetti Computing (RGTI). On March 9, 2023, it was down more than 90% from its public debut and facing delisting. That’s the day both systems aligned on it. Over the next two and a half years, it rose as much as 8,076%. Those are backtested results, and Rigetti is one of the best examples. No system wins every time. But the combination was strong enough that Marc built it into a new tool with the Swans: the Stock Tsunami Detector. This tool identifies the rare class of stocks that are the right level of bullish on the Swans’ Social Heat Score and Marc’s Power Gauge. Across the thousands of stocks we track at TradeSmith, only a few hundred make the cut. At 1:00 p.m. today, Marc and the Swans opened the doors to this new tool at The Stock Tsunami Event. They walked through what their combined systems are flagging right now, and they gave away three free stock ideas: two buys and one stock to avoid. Click here to automatically join the event now and tune in. This top cybersecurity stock is a buy on both systems… When hackers turn AI loose on a target, you have to understand they’re using automated systems. These systems work tirelessly, faster than humans ever could, to find vulnerabilities that humans have missed for years. Cloudflare (NET) is built for that kind of threat. Its network sits between millions of websites and the people – and bots – trying to reach them. It screens out automated attacks before they ever touch the site. And it’s one of the cybersecurity stocks Marc’s and the Swans’ systems agree on right now, earning it a place on the Stock Tsunami Detector. The Swans’ Social Heat Score on Cloudflare sits at 75 out of 100, well into bullish territory. Online chatter about the company is running hot. Marc’s Power Gauge rates it Bullish, with three of its four categories flashing green. Cloudflare’s stock is outpacing the market, and big money is flowing in. Wall Street analysts are getting more positive. And its earnings performance is strong. On Financials, the Power Gauge rates Cloudflare Very Bearish. That’s mostly because Cloudflare isn’t profitable yet, and its stock price already bakes in a lot of future growth. The Power Gauge weighs that against everything else – and still comes down on the bullish side. Just know what you’re signing up for. Cloudflare’s Volatility Quotient (VQ), which measures how much a stock normally swings, is 41.7%. That means a drop of about 40% from its high would be the kind of volatility we expect before the uptrend breaks. Add NET to your watchlist. If you buy, build your position in small chunks over time. If you subscribe to our popular TradeStops software, be ready to step aside if NET drops into the Red Zone.

Today’s Big Story PepsiCo’s North American Fix Is Taking Longer Than Expected, and Coke Keeps Pulling Ahead   Key Points • Third-quarter adjusted earnings of $2.34 per share beat estimates, but PepsiCo cut its full-year core profit growth outlook to 2.5% to 3.5%. • North American beverage volume fell 2% and food volume was flat, while international markets supplied 41% of revenue so far this year. • The stock closed near $139 on October 23, about 19% below its 52-week high, with a 4.3% dividend yield, so consider whether the turnaround is priced in. • Special Report: We Called (UMC) In Advance… What’s Next? PepsiCo beat on the headline numbers and still disappointed. Third-quarter adjusted earnings were $2.34 per share, against $2.29 expected. Revenue rose 5.6% to $25.27 billion, ahead of the $24.96 billion forecast. Organic revenue, which strips out currency and deals, grew 3.1%. Then came the guidance. PepsiCo now expects core earnings per share to grow 2.5% to 3.5%, down from the low end of a prior 5% to 7% range. The cause is home. CEO Ramon Laguarta said North America “performed below our expectations,” and the CFO said the turnaround is moving more slowly than planned. North American beverage volume fell 2% in the quarter. North American food volume was flat. International is the bright spot. It has produced 41% of net revenue this year, and volume grew in all but one international unit. The snack fix is partly working. PepsiCo cut snack prices by as much as 15% in February, and Laguarta says volume has moved from low single-digit declines to modest growth. Soda is the bigger problem. Fortune reports Pepsi-Cola held 8.1% of the US soft drink market last year, against 18.5% for Coke. Laguarta was blunt. “We do not feel good about the beverage business,” he told analysts, and he promised more urgency on soft drinks. Last week brought a symbolic loss. KFC said it will replace Pepsi with Coca-Cola products at its 3,700 US restaurants in January. KFC was spun out of PepsiCo in 1997, and the two had partnered for about 40 years. The sales at stake are small, but the signal is not. Pepsi did get a win on October 22. Taco Bell renewed its beverage deal through 2036, and PepsiCo shares rose about 2.5% that day. Management also warned of “a new wave of inflation” from higher energy prices. It plans price increases with guardrails, plus cost cuts to fund marketing. The shares closed at $138.83 on October 23, against a 52-week range of $123.47 to $171.48. The forward dividend of $5.92 works out to about 4.3%. PepsiCo trades at roughly 17 times trailing earnings, well below Coca-Cola’s near-28 multiple. It generates about twice Coke’s revenue but carries about half its market value. The bottom line. PepsiCo is a cheaper, higher-yielding stock with a visible problem in North American beverages. Watch whether volume turns positive there before treating the discount as an opportunity. A Message from Stansberry Research Dear Reader, According to Whitney Tilson, in less than 100 days... The day after our upcoming midterm elections... America is about to enter a period of economic change unlike anything we’ve seen in decades. The headlines may be about politics. But beneath the surface, a powerful force will divide our great nation in two – regardless of who wins this upcoming election. That’s why he’s urging investors to look beyond campaign rhetoric and prepare for what is coming next. In 2000, Whitney famously called the dot-com crash before many investors lost everything. He predicted the bankruptcies of Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers during the Great Financial Crisis. He appeared on 60 Minutes and called the bottom of the stock market right before the longest bull market in history. And today, he’s sharing all the details of his new prophecy... One that could be the most consequential to your wealth to date. In a new presentation, Whitney explains why he believes America is approaching a major turning point, what it could mean for investors, and the steps he’s taking right now to prepare. As you’ll see why, those on the winning side of this divide will see their wealth grow exponentially... While those on the losing side could see their wealth cut in half – within the next six months. If you care about this country, the economy and your wealth... You’ll want to watch this urgent briefing today. Regards, Matt Weinschenk Publisher and Director of Research, Stansberry Research P.S. Whitney also says most people have no clue what’s coming next. But you can prepare yourself while there’s still time left. He explains the full picture, and what to do about it, in this presentation.

Don’t Let This Morning Get Away From You — (NASDAQ: PBK) Just Stacked a Refinancing, a DOD Award, and a Development Agreement Tying Solar Assets to AI Compute

Any content you receive is for information purposes only. Always conduct your own research. *Disseminated on Behalf of PowerBank Corporation PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: PBK) Just Landed On Our Radar This Morning — Tuesday, October 27, 2026 Don’t Miss Our Next Update—Get Real-Time Alerts Sent Directly To Your Phone. Up To 10X Faster Than Email. See Why We Have (NASDAQ: PBK) In The Crosshairs This Morning… October 27, 2026 Dear Reader, There’s only a few minutes left to go before the bell rings. The AI revolution has a power problem… And one company building the infrastructure to address it — PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: PBK) — has quietly stacked a series of milestones that deserve a closer look. But first, the context that makes those milestones matter. According to the U.S. Department of Energy and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, data center power demand across the United States is projected to grow from 80 GW in 2025 to 338 GW by 2030 — a fourfold surge in just five years. That kind of acceleration doesn’t happen quietly. It strains grids, overloads interconnection queues, and forces the market to rethink how — and how fast — new power gets delivered. The global data center market itself, valued at $242.72B in 2024, is projected to reach $584.86B by 2030 according to Mordor Intelligence. Those numbers tell a story that goes well beyond chips and code… They point to an enormous physical infrastructure buildout — one that requires land, permits, substations, solar arrays, battery storage, and the teams that know how to deliver all of it. And that’s before factoring in the broader solar energy market, which is projected to reach $120.7B by 2027 at a 21.7% CAGR — a reflection of just how much distributed power generation the world is going to need in the years ahead. That’s why (NASDAQ: PBK) is topping our watchlist this morning — Tuesday, October 27, 2026.   PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: PBK) is a vertically integrated renewable energy developer, builder, owner, and operator with more than 100 MW of completed projects and a development pipeline exceeding one gigawatt across Canada and the United States. The company pairs on-site solar generation with battery energy storage systems to deliver behind-the-meter power — exactly the kind of distributed, fast-to-deploy infrastructure the AI buildout demands. That combination of generation and storage is what makes the model work… It allows end users to bypass congested utility interconnection queues entirely. And a wave of recent developments has made (PBK) a name worth examining closely right now. What the Grid Can't Deliver, PowerBank Can Here's the core issue facing AI infrastructure today… New data center loads face multi-year waits to connect to the grid in most North American markets. That's not a forecast — it's the current reality. Interconnection queues have become the single biggest bottleneck in data center expansion. And it's pushing developers toward a fundamentally different model: generating and storing power on-site rather than waiting years for utility service. PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: PBK) operates across the full energy value chain — from site origination, permitting, and engineering through procurement, construction, operations, and long-term asset management.   That vertical integration eliminates the handoff friction that slows most energy projects. It also gives the company direct control over timelines, costs, and performance… Which matters enormously in a market where speed-to-power is the defining competitive advantage. The company's capabilities span five core verticals: Development, Engineering Procurement and Construction, Operations and Maintenance, Independent Power Production, and Data Center energy solutions. That's a rare combination… Most companies in this space focus on one or two segments of the energy lifecycle — (PBK) covers everything from greenfield site selection to decades of long-term asset management. PowerBank's U.S. operations run through Abundant Solar Power, its wholly owned subsidiary, with a dedicated team that has built strong relationships with utilities, regulators, and communities across New York and beyond. The company's executive leadership brings over 100 years of combined experience across renewable energy development, engineering, finance, and regulatory compliance — led by CEO Dr. Richard Lu, President and COO Andrew van Doorn, CFO Nicole Rusaw, and Executive Chairman Matt Wayrynen. That depth of experience matters here because energy infrastructure projects don't tolerate learning curves… They reward companies that already know how to navigate complex, multi-jurisdictional permitting environments — and PowerBank has been doing exactly that for 14 years. With a portfolio of 54 completed projects spanning Feed-in Tariff, Community Solar, and Commercial & Industrial categories across Ontario and New York State — including 51 solar and 3 BESS installations — and three new BESS projects proposed in Ontario communities totaling nearly 15 MW of capacity, the company's footprint continues to expand into new geographies and new verticals.   A String of Milestones That Add Up The past several months have been remarkably productive for PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: PBK). Today — October 26, 2026 — the company announced the completion of a CA$25.4M project-level refinancing that reduces outstanding project loan principal by approximately CA$4.2M — a 14% reduction. The transaction consolidates 50 credit agreements across three lenders into a single facility with a major Canadian bank… And it's expected to release approximately CA$5.0M in net cash to the company. PowerBank is also bringing operations and maintenance in-house for 49 of the 53 projects covered by the refinancing, which should reduce operating costs and give the company greater control over maintenance planning and asset performance. That announcement follows the company's fiscal year-end results filed September 29. Gross margin expanded to 34.7% from 25.3% in the prior year. IPP production revenue reached $9.8M. Working capital swung to a positive $1.6M after starting the year in deficit. And the company reduced cash used in operations by $4.4M compared to the prior fiscal year. During the fourth quarter alone, PowerBank brought five projects into commercial operation, including the SFF 06 battery energy storage project in Ontario and the entire 21 MW community solar portfolio in upstate New York.   The company also safe-harbored eight distributed solar and energy storage projects in New York State ahead of the IRS Physical Work Test deadline, locking in an estimated ITC value of approximately US$29.7M with a portfolio construction value of approximately US$74.3M. Those are the kinds of numbers that speak to serious forward planning — and to a management team thinking well beyond the current quarter. In September, (PBK) was awarded a contract by the New York Power Authority for a 1.628 MW ground-mount solar array at SUNY Oneonta — the first MW-scale on-site solar installation for the campus. That contract carries an estimated construction value of US$3.58M and is expected to qualify for approximately US$1.4M in federal tax credits. It also marks a meaningful government-level validation of the company's ability to win competitive procurement processes and deliver complex, grid-connected solar installations on schedule and to specification. That kind of credential matters when larger contracts are on the table… And in June, PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: PBK) signed a Joint Development Agreement with Nodiac Corp. to explore deploying distributed AI compute infrastructure across PowerBank's existing portfolio of solar and BESS sites. That's the kind of potential catalyst that could fundamentally expand the company's revenue model… Because it takes existing energy assets and layers on modular edge data center capacity — turning solar-and-storage sites into dual-purpose infrastructure that serves both the grid and the AI compute economy. The company was also awarded a $2.95M federal contract with the U.S. Department of Defense for a Covered Parking Canopy Solar Project — further demonstrating the breadth of demand for its services across both government and commercial channels. And all three community solar projects in Nova Scotia secured interconnection agreements, advancing a 12.4 MW development pipeline in the province and opening up yet another geographic market for (PBK) as the company continues to scale across eastern Canada. 7 Reasons Why We’re Putting (NASDAQ: PBK) In The Crosshairs This Morning — Tuesday, October 27, 2026 1. Vertically Integrated Model: PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: PBK) handles development, engineering, procurement, construction, operations, and asset management in-house, giving the company control over the full project lifecycle from permitting through long-term operations. 2. 1 GW+ Development Pipeline: The company reports a development pipeline exceeding one gigawatt with more than 100 MW already built across 54 completed projects in Canada and the United States — spanning solar, BESS, and multiple contract types. 3. Improving Financial Profile: Gross margin expanded to 34.7% from 25.3%, working capital swung positive to $1.6M, and cash used in operations decreased by $4.4M year-over-year per the company's fiscal year-end report. 4. CA$25.4M Refinancing Complete: The newly announced refinancing reduces project debt by 14%, consolidates 50 credit agreements into one facility, and is expected to release approximately CA$5.0M in net cash. 5. NYPA Contract Win: (PBK) was awarded a competitive contract by the New York Power Authority for a 1.628 MW solar array at SUNY Oneonta — the first MW-scale on-site solar installation for the campus — with an estimated US$1.4M in federal tax credits. 6. AI Data Center Potential Catalyst: The Joint Development Agreement with Nodiac Corp. opens a pathway to co-locate modular AI compute infrastructure at PowerBank's existing energy sites, a potential new revenue channel from assets already in operation. 7. Multi-Firm Analyst Coverage: (PBK) is covered by H.C. Wainwright & Co., Freedom Finance Global, Research Capital Corporation, and D. Boral Capital, with an average analyst target of $4.00 per Yahoo Finance. See Why We Have (NASDAQ: PBK) In The Crosshairs This Morning…   The math behind the AI power buildout is not subtle… When U.S. data center demand is expected to grow fourfold by 2030, a staggering amount of energy infrastructure has to be built — and built quickly. That's not a distant timeline — it's already underway. PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: PBK) has the operational track record, the gigawatt-scale pipeline, the vertical integration, and a freshly strengthened balance sheet to compete for a share of that build.
