Everpure (Pure Storage, PSTG): Shifting from Hardware to Data Management

Everpure, formerly known as Pure Storage (PSTG), is undergoing a significant business model transformation from solely a NAND flash hardware provider to a data management and software-centric company. This shift is highlighted by the acquisition of 1Touch (rebranded as Pure1) to enter the Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) market and a strategic partnership with Meta, where Everpure provides high-margin IP licensing and engineering services rather than just physical storage arrays. Despite record R&D spending approaching $1 billion and recent price increases to offset memory shortages, the market remains cautious as it waits for 75–85% gross margins from the Meta deal to reflect in financial results.

This week on the M2 Podcast, we break down major power shifts and mounting pressures across the gaming industry. Microsoft has appointed Asha Sharma as the new CEO of Xbox following the departures of Phil Spencer and Sarah Bond, signaling a strategic reset as the company looks to redefine the brand beyond consoles. Meanwhile, a surge in global DRAM and NAND memory prices—driven largely by AI infrastructure demand—is squeezing hardware margins and could lead to higher costs across consoles, components, and subscriptions. On the legal front, New York Attorney General Letitia James is suing Valve, alleging its loot box systems in games like Counter-Strike 2 constitute illegal gambling and could have sweeping regulatory consequences. Finally, Discord has delayed its global age-verification rollout after user backlash, as platforms continue navigating increasing regulatory scrutiny around teen safety. It's a week defined by leadership changes, economic strain, and growing legal accountability in gaming.0:00 Intro1:44 Updates17:08 Inside Xbox leadership shake-up https://tinyurl.com/ek5vv5tb 49:36 Surge in memory prices https://tinyurl.com/444va88t1:07:47 New York Attorney General Sues Valve https://tinyurl.com/2arjkpwe 1:25:03 Discord Is Delaying Age Checks https://tinyurl.com/7m9mrxde 1:35:50 OutroLeave a LIKE and a comment, thanks for watching/listening!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------PODCAST                ►► https://anchor.fm/m2podcastAMAZON Music         ► https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/091902c3-b83b-487c-8fe7-4c96787434fe/M2-PodcastAPPLE                          ► https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1531832410BREAKER                     ► https://www.breaker.audio/m2-podcast-2CASTRO                       ► https://castro.fm/podcast/6f69d373-d879-46d9-9f1c-bcf7c4bf1741GOOGLE                       ► https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy8zNTYwNWZiMC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw==OVERCAST                   ► https://overcast.fm/itunes1531832410/m2-podcastPOCKETCASTS           ► https://pca.st/5jghvf6eRADIOPUBLIC             ► https://radiopublic.com/m2-podcast-GMZkY4SPOTIFY                      ► https://open.spotify.com/show/2VedhO03IRoHERJqF6Sy87STICHER                      ► https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/m2-podcastTUNEIN                        ► http://tun.in/pj3ZI#podcast JOIN THE DISCORD!  ►► https://discord.gg/Kp5Gre6KyleHeath Socials:TIKTOK           ►► https://www.tiktok.com/@mrjkheathTWITCH          ►► https://www.twitch.tv/kyleheathTWITTER        ►► https://twitter.com/mrjkheathYOUTUBE       ►► https://www.youtube.com/MrJkheathMadMikeWillEatU Socials:TIKTOK           ►► https://www.tiktok.com/@madmikewilleatuTWITCH          ►► https://www.twitch.tv/madmikewilleatu/aboutTWITTER        ►► https://twitter.com/madmikewilleatuYOUTUBE       ►► https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1MoIvzyMDvH_5Ta

Srimad Bhagavatam [Bhagwat Katha] – Part 26 | Swami Mukundananda  Swamiji narrates the divine first leela of Shree Krishna in Gokul. Nand and Yashoda, known for their simplicity and devotion, had longed for a child. The Brahmins blessed them, and by divine arrangement, the Lord Himself was destined to appear in their home.  On the suspenseful night of Krishna's birth, one by one the prison guards fell asleep, the chains broke, and the doors opened. Vasudeva carried the newborn across the Yamuna, which parted to make way, and placed Him safely in Gokul. At that very moment, Yashoda fainted in divine ecstasy, and Krishna's gentle crying awakened everyone to the miracle.  Soon after, the mukh‑dikhai ceremony was performed, where the villagers gathered to behold the divine child. The celebration in Vraj was filled with joy, music, and devotion, as the community rejoiced at the arrival of their beloved Krishna.  Swamiji emphasizes that these leelas are not ordinary events but spiritual lessons. Krishna's first leela reveals how God binds His devotees with love, awakens prem bhakti, and assures that His presence is tender, loving, and accessible in the simplest forms of affection.  About Swami Mukundananda:    Swami Mukundananda is a renowned spiritual leader, Vedic scholar, Bhakti saint, best‑selling author, and an international authority on the subject of mind management. He is the founder of the unique yogic system called JKYog. Swamiji holds distinguished degrees in Engineering and Management from IIT and IIM. Having taken the renounced order of life (sanyas), he is the senior disciple of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, and has been sharing Vedic wisdom across the globe for decades.

Srimad Bhagavatam [Bhagwat Katha] – Part 27 | Swami Mukundananda  Swamiji narrates the suspenseful leela of Putna Vadh, which reveals Shree Krishna's divine protection even as a six‑day‑old infant. Kamsa, fearful of the prophecy, sent the demoness Putna to Gokul. Disguised as a beautiful woman, she entered Nand and Yashoda's home, pretending to shower affection on the newborn Krishna.  Putna attempted to poison Krishna by breastfeeding Him with deadly milk. But Krishna, the Supreme Lord, accepted her as a mother figure and sucked not only the milk but also her very life force. Putna collapsed lifeless, and when her body was cremated, it emanated fragrance instead of foul odor — a sign of Krishna's boundless grace. Swamiji explains that even though Putna came with evil intent, Krishna granted her liberation because she had offered Him the semblance of motherly affection.  The villagers of Vraj were struck with awe and relief. Nand and Yashoda, shaken yet grateful, realized the extraordinary protection surrounding their child. The suspense of the night gave way to reassurance, as the mothers of Vraj instinctively performed protective rituals around Krishna, expressing their love and devotion.  Swamiji emphasizes that this leela teaches us to develop unshakable faith in God's protection. Just as Krishna safeguarded the people of Braj, He continues to protect devotees who surrender to Him with love and trust. Even hostility, when directed toward God, can be transformed into grace — showing the Lord's infinite compassion.  About Swami Mukundananda:    Swami Mukundananda is a renowned spiritual leader, Vedic scholar, Bhakti saint, best‑selling author, and an international authority on the subject of mind management.

Wen Quan Cheong, co-manager of Mawer's emerging markets equity strategy, outlines four major themes shaping the opportunity set today. First, the "picks and shovels" of AI: upstream enablers such as advanced chip manufacturers, memory makers, and specialized chip-testing firms that are benefiting from structural bottlenecks in the AI supply chain. Second, companies that are actually converting AI investment into higher returns on capital. Third, the "Great Supply Chain Reshuffle," where national security concerns, tariffs, and "China plus one" strategies are driving a reconfiguration of strategic manufacturing infrastructure across Asia and the U.S. And finally, a broader universe of less obvious EM stories that illustrate how opportunity is evolving across regions and sectors as these forces play out.   Highlights: Why upstream AI enablers are seeing such powerful earnings leverage: how capacity cuts, equipment bottlenecks, and surging demand for DRAM, HBM, and NAND have flipped the memory market from oversupplied to structurally tight. What it takes for companies to truly convert AI investment into sustainable returns on invested capital, and why early, well-run adopters may enjoy a multi year edge. How shifting geopolitics, U.S. tariffs, and national security concerns are driving a "Great Supply Chain Reshuffle," from TSMC-linked clean room specialists like Actor Group supporting new fabs to Chinese manufacturers using their domestic scale and integration to expand overseas. Why emerging markets are more than just China and tech, with examples ranging from Saudi insurance aggregation and Vietnamese pharmacies to ship maintenance businesses with recurring revenues.   Host: Rob Campbell, CFA Institutional Portfolio Manager Guest: Wen Quan Cheong, CFA Portfolio Manager   This episode is available for download anywhere you get your podcasts.

What's the case for college these days? For much of the last fifty years, research very clearly suggested that college was the key to unlock the American Dream. A college degree not only ensured a route to a stable career but was also strongly correlated with future financial well-being. Events of recent years, along with the affordability challenges, seem to have stood that conventional wisdom on its head.rnrnAnd yet, more than 15 million students are enrolled in undergraduate programs at close to 4,000 institutions. And despite the headlines about name-brand private colleges and universities, it's important to remember that more than 70% of those students are at public institutions--community colleges and state schools that prioritize affordability alongside educational quality.rnrnTo make the case for college in these turbulent times, we'll hear from the President of one of the more affordable higher education institutions in Northeast Ohio, the chief executive of the regional organization that supports more than 42,000 individuals every year, and the best-selling author of The Black Family's Guide to College Admissions: A Conversation about Education, Parenting, and Race.

Can the wafer fab equipment leader sustain its run?We break down the critical China sales concern (43% of revenue) and the US BIS affiliate rule impact, which forecasts a $200 million revenue hit in the December quarter and $600 million for calendar year 2026. Management expects demand from other regions (U.S., Taiwan, Korea) to offset these restrictions.Foundry, led by TSMC and other chip fabs, drove 60% of sales. Rising NAND demand is a key long-term tailwind. Q3 revenue was $5.32 billion. Lam's large customer service revenue (roughly one-third of the business) remains a vital asset for customers repurposing equipment.We discuss why we're now advocating for patience with the stock after a 40% run-up, while noting the 2026 outlook may be stronger than current forward valuations imply.Join us on Discord with Semiconductor Insider, sign up on our website: www.chipstockinvestor.com/membershipSupercharge your analysis with AI!

AI's Memory Crisis: Hardware Costs Surge, Tech Hiring Booms, and Amazon Faces Inshittification

AI's increasing demand for memory and storage is leading to a significant pricing crisis in the hardware market, with projections indicating that this situation could persist for the next decade. Analysts and manufacturers are warning of impending shortages of NAND and DRAM, essential components for solid-state drives and memory. The price of NAND Flash has already surged by over 100% in just six months, and DDR4 memory products are expected to rise by up to 43% in the third quarter of 2025. This crisis is largely driven by major AI projects, such as OpenAI's Stargate initiative, which could consume a staggering 40% of global DRAM output.Despite broader economic challenges, the tech sector is experiencing a rebound in hiring, particularly in Silicon Valley, where AI companies are driving a resurgence in the office market. Job postings for software developers, cybersecurity engineers, and AI engineers have seen notable increases, even as the private sector overall lost jobs. The demand for tech talent remains high, with international tech workers still viewing the U.S. as an attractive destination. This shift contradicts earlier predictions that AI would lead to widespread job losses, instead highlighting a transformation in workforce dynamics.The podcast also discusses a significant shift in the perception of market development funds (MDF) among channel partners. Traditional MDF programs are becoming obsolete, with partners now prioritizing outcome-based funds and training that enhance capabilities and align with customer success. This change reflects a broader trend in vendor-partner relationships, where partners seek strategic alliances focused on measurable outcomes rather than outdated financial support for marketing activities. The evolving landscape emphasizes the need for specialization and collaboration to thrive in the current market.Finally, the episode touches on the concept of "inshittification," particularly in relation to Amazon's declining customer-centric approach as it prioritizes profits over user experience. This trend raises concerns about the future of online commerce and the trustworthiness of platforms. Additionally, the discussion includes insights on employee satisfaction post-IPO, the evolution of AI technology at Notion, and the challenges faced by OpenAI as it navigates financial losses. These topics prompt critical reflections on vendor relationships, the impact of public offerings on innovation, and the readiness of clients for advanced AI systems. Four things to know today00:00 AI Boom Sparks Global Memory Shortage, Driving Decade-Long Hardware Price Surge04:23 AI Fuels Tech Hiring Surge as U.S. Job Market Splits in Two07:14 MDF Is Dead: Partners Demand Outcome-Based Funding and Strategic Enablement10:10 Amazon's Enshittification, IPO Fallout, and OpenAI's Struggle — Strategy Lessons for IT Providers This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://getflexpoint.com/msp-radio/https://scalepad.com/dave/ Webinar:  https://bit.ly/msprmail

Everyone is talking about a new memory super cycle related to AI data centers, and suddenly, NAND flash is having its moment. SanDisk (SNDK) has returned to the public market after its spinoff IPO from Western Digital, and it's back in growth mode.In this deep dive, we use our investing framework to analyze SanDisk's position in the storage market. We examine the major shift from HDDs (Hard Disk Drives) to SSDs (Solid State Drives) in data centers due to product shortages and the need for new solutions.Key Topics Covered:The Market: Why the NAND flash market is about to heat up and how SanDisk is uniquely positioned against memory chip makers like SK hynix and Micron.The Partnership: Our preference for SanDisk over Kioxia due to their Flash Ventures joint venture, allowing SanDisk to buy finished wafers at cost with a small markup (asset light model).The Innovation: SanDisk's invention of HBF (High Bandwidth Flash), which might be an answer to HBM for co-packaging next to GPUs.The Financials: Analyzing the 30x expected free cash flow valuation, the company's flip from free cashflow loss to free cashflow positive, the GAAP net loss, and the loan inherited from Western Digital.Investment Thesis: Whether SanDisk should be a small bet in a basket play alongside Lam Research and Pure Storage.TImestamps:(00:00:00) | Introduction: The Memory Supercycle and SanDisk's Re-IPO(00:01:06) | Core Product: NAND Flash, IDMs, and the $200 Billion Market(00:03:00) | SanDisk's History: Spin-off from Western Digital & The NAND Landscape(00:03:38) | The Storage Supply Chain: Lam Research, Kioxia, and Pure Storage(00:05:14) | Kioxia Partnership: Why SanDisk Gets Wafers "At Cost"(00:07:34) | The Market Catalyst: HDD Shortages and Data Center SSD Demand(00:09:56) | Next-Gen Innovation: High Bandwidth Flash (HBF) vs. HBM(00:11:15) | Enablers & Market Exposure: Fab Equipment (Lam, Applied) and Client/Cloud Segments(00:14:02) | Financials: Flipping from Free Cash Flow Loss to Positive(00:16:08) | Q1 Fiscal 2026 Guidance, Debt, and NTM Valuation(00:18:12) | Final Takeaway: SanDisk as a "Small Bet" in a Basket PlayJoin us on Discord with Semiconductor Insider, sign up on our website: www.chipstockinvestor.com/membershipSupercharge your analysis with AI!

His name is Faheem Tahir, and his article is titled 12 Best Ethical Companies to Invest in 2025. It's found on fool.com. The methodology underlying his stock selection is fascinating and impressive.

It's by Emelia Fredlick and Leslie P. Norton and seen on morningstar.com. (Note: follow the article link on this podcast episode's webpage to all 83 companies that Morningstar considers the best 2025 sustainable companies.) The article also highlights the three companies below. Here are some brief quotes from the authors. “Morningstar's research finds that the biggest ESG risk is in energy and utilities, with the smallest in technology and real estate. Morningstar Sustainalytics measures this with the Sustainalytics ESG Risk Rating… We didn't include valuations for these (83) companies. Rather, we focused on the criteria that set a company up for success in the long term. So, while not all these names can be considered a buy today, this can serve as a great watchlist… Data Source: Morningstar Direct as of Jun. 30, 2025. 1) RELX RELX UK-based RELX is a global provider of business information, analytics, and decision-making tools for professionals across industries. The firm generates revenue mainly by creating and selling access to curated information databases, analytics, and journals. Morningstar senior analyst Rob Hales assigns RELX a wide Morningstar Economic Moat Rating… Sustainalytics gives RELX an ESG Risk Management Rating of Strong. 2) Danaher DHR Danaher focuses primarily on manufacturing scientific instruments and consumables in the life science and diagnostic industries. The firm aims to accelerate core growth at acquired companies, including Cytiva (formerly GE Biopharma), by making research and development and marketing-related investments… Sustainalytics gives Danaher an ESG Risk Management Rating of Strong. Morningstar senior analyst Julie Utterback assigns Danaher a wide economic moat. 3) Keysight Technologies KEYS Keysight Technologies is the leader in communications testing and measurement solutions. We think it has the strongest and broadest communications testing capabilities in the market across hardware, software, and services. Its wide moat rating, according to Morningstar senior analyst William Kerwin, owes to ‘intangible assets in the design of test and measurement equipment and software and switching costs for its portfolio of solutions.' Because of Keysight's strong ESG reporting and oversight of ESG issues, Sustainalytics gives the company an ESG Risk Management Rating of Strong.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Top Wind Energy Stocks That Will Drive Long-Term Portfolio Growth The last article I'm covering is by Avisekh Bhattacharjee, for Zacks, and found on nasdaq.com.

The Struggle Is Real | Romans 7:15–25 | Victory in ChristIn Romans 7:15–25, the Apostle Paul gives voice to a struggle we all know too well, the tension between our desire to follow God and the reality of the sin nature within us. This passage isn't just a description of inner conflict; it's a roadmap to understanding our flesh and the victory that comes only through Jesus Christ.Paul reveals the truth we all wrestle with: • The Law reveals sin but cannot rescue us. • The struggle is real - a tug of war between our desire to please God and the pull of sin. • The war within doesn't define our identity; it drives us to depend on Christ. • Deliverance comes through Jesus - not our willpower, but the Spirit's liberating power.

Back in 1987, flash memory cost about $80,000 per gigabyte. Twenty years later in 2007, prices had fallen to just $10 per gigabyte. By 2014, just 27 cents. And then as of this writing, spot prices were quoting just about two cents per gigabyte. That is some insane scaling. Moore's Law might have faltered...in the logic world. But it is still alive and well in flash memory, particularly the variant known as NAND.

EYE ON NPI - ISSI Serial NAND Flash Chips

This week's EYE ON NPI is a NAND in the HAND, it's ISSI Serial NAND Flash chips (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/i/issi/serial-nand-flash) available in a variety of sizes and footprints. These are great options for folks that need more data storage on their PCBs, but don't necessarily want an SD card. DigiKey has a selection of 1Gbit and 2Gbit chips, so you have tons of storage for data logs, images, recordings, or even filesystems. And the price is great, you'll pay much less per byte when buying NAND flash There's plenty of times you'll need to access non-volatile memory on your microcontroller: graphics or audio files for a user interface, maps or almanac data for telemetry, sensor or usage logs, interpreted code scripts, firmware updates, security certificates, etc. these files are too big to be stored in simple EEPROM chips (https://www.digikey.com/short/0rf9t7qb) that max out at a few kB. The next step up is to use NOR Flash (https://www.digikey.com/short/jfp3bvph) - you can get up to 256 Megabytes in size! (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/issi-integrated-silicon-solution-inc/IS25LP02GJ-RHLE/24617385) Compared to EEPROM which comes in 1-Wire, I2C or SPI, you definitely have to use an SPI interface for NOR Flash. It's also possible on many chips to have 4-bit-at-a-time QSPI or even 8-bit OSPI interfacing for fast reads. And that's the thing that's really nice about NOR: instant reads of any byte anywhere in memory just like EEPROM. Unlike EEPROM you can't write just one byte at a time anywhere in the storage, you have to write 'page' and erase a 'sector' at a time - each page tends to be about 256 bytes, a sector is often 4KB. That means if you want to update a file, you'll need to read the whole 4K block into a memory cache, change the bytes you want to, then erase and re-write the block out. The good news though is once you write out a page, you can pretty much assume it will stay for many years: there's rarely corrupted data in NOR flash. And, although erasing and writing is a bit of a pain, the instant-access means NOR is great for 'XIP' or other dynamic memory access. If NOR is so great, why bother with NAND? One is cost: a 2MB NOR chip isn't too bad about 45 cents in quantity (https://www.digikey.com/short/zff49fb7) but once you get to the biggest 256 MB ones (https://www.digikey.com/short/vffmp583) the pricing gets high pretty quickly: $15 in tray quantities. Considering you can get a 64G SD card for that price, NOR isn't very cost effective. Second is sizing: if you want 1GB for large files, it just isn't available. For that kind of density you need NOR flash. NAND flash is the kind of flash you get when you buy a USB key or microSD card, although those have USB or SDIO interface chips (https://www.bunniestudios.com/blog/2013/where-usb-memory-sticks-are-born/) that are wire bonded to the NAND flash chips. You get a lot more for the price: instead of $15 for 256MB NOR, its $3 (https://www.digikey.com/short/r77p0922). You also don't need more pins! We always thought that NAND flash required a lot of pins since it comes in 48-TSSOP (https://www.digikey.com/short/8zqbmw31) but turns out that you can get it in a QSPI 8-pin format. That makes it easy to integrate without needing an 8-bit wide memory controller. However, the architectural decisions that give ISSI NAND (https://www.digikey.com/short/jtp8ppdb) the massive size & low cost that we love also make it more complex to use than NOR flash. For one, you can no longer get random access to any byte you like. Instead, an entire page must be read at once into a 2176-byte cache, and then can be accessed. This is fine for most uses except we can't use XIP anymore and there are probably some memory access use cases that don't work nearly as nicely. Also that high density means that bits are more likely to go 'bad' and flip. While you can sorta-kinda get away with not doing error correction or wear leveling on NOR, you absolutely must do error correction and wear leveling on NAND! ISSI includes a simple multi-bit ECC system that can handle repairing up to 8 bits per 2176-byte page. And, every time there's ECC errors, you will need to 'refresh/rewrite' the data to clean it up. That refresh counts against the 60K or 100K write cycle - you are more likely to need wear-level management, even if you don't expect to write that often. Basically, check if your microcontroller SDK has a NAND controller library (https://github.com/D-Buckingham/NAND_flash) that can manage this all for you. So, if you need to level up your storage, with easy-to-use SPI or QSPI-interface, ISSI has many NAND (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/i/issi/serial-nand-flash) options to let you quickly and inexpensively add 1 or 2 gigabits of non-volatile memory with built in ECC support and block cache. DigiKey will be stocking them shortly, sign up (https://www.digikey.com/short/jtp8ppdb) to be notified when they drop into stock mid-next month!
