Q: Hi there, NOVS

This question is about AppHarvest. They state that their mission is:
"We’re farming for the future.
Our controlled environment facilities help us farm smarter, so we can sustainably grow more healthy, delicious foods on a large scale, all year long." The concept is that they are bringing agriculture indoors, much like The Netherlands have done, to use less water and be able to produce much more on far less land with vastly reduced waste.

A few tidbits from their site:
-Our facilities use 100% recycled rainwater and eliminate harmful agricultural runoff.
-Harnessing sunlight and efficient LEDs allows for increased, sustainable crop growth year-round.
-We grow up to 30x more fruits and vegetables on a single acre compared to open-field agriculture.
- Zero chemical pesticides for cleaner, safer foods

I bought the SPAC that owns this and they just went up a lot having lured the CFO of Impossible foods to be their new President which the markets liked. The company is about to merge with the SPAC and expects its first harvest in Q1. They have a large number of sites either in development, under contract or identified for growth. I see it as being a way for the US to become less reliant on imported produce as they ramp up and it hits the right notes with sustainability, no chemicals and reducing environmental impact.

My question is if you see this is a way to get in at the very start of what could be a big market in which case I would buy more or if you think it's too speculative.

Q: Hello Team,

TWTR stock came down 5.5% from Wednesday to Friday and is now down another 3.77% after hours following the announcement that Trump was permanently kicked out of TWTR space, an action also implemented by many other social media companies, even PINS. I know Twitter will survive without Trump but how about its stock!?

Do you think the drop is a knee-jerk reaction and the stock will recover in a short order? or do you think the stock will continue to languish not because he is gone, but because TWTR cannot monetize its millions of users looking for the latest news/events in political arena, a generally depressing space at the best of times. Trump at least had made this space a bit more lively/interesting.

I have been waiting very patiently for a vey long time on this stock to finally move and now this. I want to hold as I think the company is ready for live sport and ad revenues from it, but I wonder if this elusive goal is worth the opportunity cost.

I know you like TWTR so what would you do? I know your most likely answer is "nothing," but could you tell me if nothing really has changed and the future is bright for TWTR with or without Trump.

Thank you as always!
