  • Eli Lilly and Company (LLY) is up 27.02% since October 19th, 2025, propelled by the announcement of positive Phase 3 clinical trial results for its oral GLP-1 drug in early October, which demonstrated strong efficacy in diabetes management and weight loss, reinforcing the company's leadership in the booming cardiometabolic therapy market and boosting investor confidence in its pipeline expansion beyond injectables like Mounjaro and Zepbound. This momentum was further amplified by a strategic drug-pricing agreement with Novo Nordisk and the Trump administration, slashing U.S. prices for key weight-loss drugs in exchange for tariff relief and broader Medicare/Medicaid access, alleviating regulatory pressures while highlighting sustained demand; bullish analyst upgrades, including buy signals from pivot bottoms around October 21, and robust international sales—such as Mounjaro becoming India's top-selling drug by value in October—have compounded the rally, with shares hitting an all-time high of $1,025.28 on November 14 amid calming volatility and favorable technical indicators like upward-trending Bollinger Bands and a retreating RSI from overbought levels.
  • Apple Inc (AAPL) is up 20.52% since August 18th, 2025, primarily fueled by the successful launch of the iPhone 17 series, which sparked a strong upgrade cycle and drove robust sales—particularly in China, where iPhone units surged 37% year-over-year in October, capturing a 25% market share for the first time since 2022. Apple's fiscal Q4 2025 earnings set records with $102.5 billion in revenue (up 8%), highlighted by September-quarter highs in iPhone and all-time highs in Services ($28.8 billion, up 15%), capping a fiscal year of $416 billion in revenue (up 6%). Easing geopolitical tensions, including Apple's expanded U.S. manufacturing commitments to mitigate tariff impacts, shifted investor sentiment from caution to optimism. Additionally, growing confidence in Apple's AI roadmap, with features rolling out and major enhancements expected in 2026, contributed to the positive momentum amid a broader tech recovery.
  • Parker-Hannifin Corporation (PH) is up 19.73% since July 28th, 2025driven by strong operational performance and strategic momentum. The key catalyst was the company's fiscal Q1 2026 earnings (reported November 6, 2025), which delivered record sales of $5.1 billion (up organically 5% year-over-year), adjusted EPS of $7.22 (up 16%, beating estimates), and a 170 basis point expansion in adjusted segment margins to 27.4%—particularly fueled by 13% growth in the high-margin Aerospace Systems segment amid robust commercial and defense demand. This prompted Parker to raise full-year fiscal 2026 guidance for sales growth (to 4-7%) and EPS (midpoint ~$30), boosting investor confidence. Additional tailwinds included the completion of the Curtis Instruments acquisition (enhancing electrification capabilities) and ongoing talks/progress on larger deals like Filtration Group, alongside broader industrial recovery, secular aerospace/defense tailwinds, and consistent margin expansion through the company's portfolio transformation.

KKR Premium Leading the Charge on Private Credit 
 

KKR is poised for continued growth as a leading alternative asset manager, driven by its diversified platform, rapid expansion in private credit, and a strategic shift toward stable, fee-driven earnings that enhance predictability and resilience. The firm's strong AUM growth, institutional backing, and favorable macroeconomic trends in private markets further support its positive outlook, culminating in a "Buy" rating from the analyst.

  • KKR has significantly expanded its fee-paying AUM beyond $550 billion in 2025, fueled by strong fundraising in private credit, infrastructure, and perpetual-capital vehicles amid investor rotation toward alternatives.
  • The company's earnings are increasingly stable due to growing fee-related income from management fees, reducing reliance on volatile performance income and supporting consistent EPS growth and beats on analyst estimates.
  • Private credit has emerged as a key growth driver, benefiting from banks' retreat in corporate lending and high demand for yield-oriented strategies in a high-rate environment.
  • KKR maintains steady dividend growth alongside share price appreciation, reflecting investor confidence, while its capital allocation prioritizes reinvestment in high-return areas like credit and infrastructure.
  • Institutional ownership is dominant, with major players like Vanguard, BlackRock, and others increasing positions, and analysts overwhelmingly maintain buy/outperform ratings with rising price targets.

Overall, KKR's robust fundamentals, exposure to secular private market trends, and predictable earnings trajectory position it as a compelling long-term investment in the alternative asset space.

Integration of New Technologies and Traditional Approach

Fundamental analysis—pioneered by Benjamin Graham and popularized by Warren Buffett—assesses a company's intrinsic value through financial and economic data, while machine learning and AI revolutionize stock forecasting by processing vast datasets to uncover patterns and optimize strategies. Combining these approaches allows traditional analysts to automate tasks, test scenarios, and achieve more accurate, comprehensive predictions.

  • Fundamental analysis evaluates revenues, profits, assets, and macroeconomic factors to determine fair stock value but is criticized for being time-intensive, subjective, and less effective for short-term trades.
  • Machine learning and AI, particularly neural networks, excel at real-time analysis of massive data, handling complex variables, and improving trading efficiency beyond human limits.
  • Integrating the two methods complements strengths: AI automates data handling for fundamentals, while fundamental insights guide AI models for better long-term reliability.
  • I Know First's AI system, based on chaos theory and self-learning algorithms, successfully forecasts over 13,500 assets and delivered a sector ETF strategy outperforming the S&P 500 by 50.25% from 2020–2024.

Investors can maximize returns and make more informed decisions by blending fundamental analysis with AI-driven techniques for a resilient, hybrid forecasting approach.

I Know First's Insider Trading Package


Legal insider trading occurs when company insiders—such as executives, directors, employees, or major shareholders owning over 10% of equity—buy or sell their firm's stock, provided they report transactions in advance to the SEC, distinguishing it from illegal trading based on non-public information. I Know First has introduced a new "Insider Trades" package that uses AI to generate stock trend predictions specifically for companies with recently reported insider transactions.
  • Legal insider trading is tightly regulated to maintain market fairness, requiring SEC filings to prevent unfair advantages from confidential information (e.g., upcoming product launches boosting stock prices).
  • Insiders include company officers, employees, their family/friends, service providers with access to confidential data, and government officials involved.
  • Illegal insider trading undermines investor confidence by allowing trades on material non-public information, which is prohibited.
  • Publicly reported insider activity can signal potential stock movements, as insiders have deep company knowledge.
I Know First's Insider Trades package offers investors AI-driven forecasts on stocks affected by recent legal insider transactions, helping identify potential opportunities.

Here is an example forecast of the Insider Trading Package:

Magnificent 7 Multi-Tier AI Strategy


I Know First's "Magnificent Seven Multi-Tier AI Investment Strategy" leverages the firm's self-learning AI algorithm to generate forecasts for trading the seven dominant tech stocks—Apple, Amazon, Alphabet (Google), Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Tesla—combined with selective ETF allocations and monthly rebalancing. Backtested from January 1, 2020, to July 31, 2025, the strategy delivered an outstanding 1054.58% return, vastly outperforming the S&P 500 by 958.48%, with strong risk-adjusted metrics (Sharpe ratio 1.64, Sortino ratio 2.41).
  • The strategy determines "majority direction" from AI forecasts of the Magnificent Seven: if more long signals, build a bullish portfolio; if more short, go 100% short in SPY.
  • Bullish allocation: 60% to top 3 Magnificent Seven stocks (by predictability), 10% to top 2 GICS Level 2 industry ETFs (by signal strength), 20% to 5 most predictable stocks universe-wide, and 10% to SPY or OEF.
  • Powered by I Know First's chaos theory-based AI, which uses neural networks and genetic algorithms on 15+ years of data to predict over 13,500 assets without human bias.
  • Offered as a premium "tier 2" service for institutional clients (hedge funds, banks), building on daily forecasts with personalized support.
This AI-driven approach demonstrates exceptional outperformance and risk management, making it a compelling option for institutional investors seeking a competitive edge in tech-heavy markets.

CEO Weekly Letter

Dear Investors,

This week, we saw a preview of how specific stock selection beats the general indices.

While the S&P 500 slid 0.6% and the Nasdaq dropped 1.6%, a massive rotation occurred under the surface. The Small Caps (Russell 2000) outperformed their larger counterparts, gaining 1.2% and notching fresh all-
time highs on Thursday.

When the giants stumble, the agile runners take the lead—and that is exactly where our AI was positioned this week. 

The Predictive Power of AI: Explosive Moves

While the broader tech indices cooled off, our predictive AI was red-hot,
identifying outliers that defied the general trend.

1. TLRY (Tilray): +55% Explosion
The AI identified this opportunity with a very strong signal (Ranked 1st). The stock didn't just move; it erupted. TLRY surged 44% on Friday alone and added another 11% in after-hours trading.
See the Options Outlook Forecast:

2. WHLR (Wheeler Real Estate): +223% Since Forecast
Another massive hit for our Small Cap algorithm. WHLR jumped 9% on Friday, and incredible 223% since our AI first flagged it.
See the Small Cap Forecast:

3. IMVT (Immunovant): Defying the Trend
Even as the Nasdaq fell, IMVT jumped 6.5%, proving that accurate stock selection matters more than general market sentiment.

Wall Street Confirms the Bull Case: S&P 500 to 7,700

Institutional giants are beginning to see what our algorithms have been tracking. Just this Friday, UBS released a major forecast predicting the S&P 500 could reach 7,700 by the end of 2026.

According to the firm’s strategist, Sagar Khandelwal: “We expect high profitability and the accelerating impact of the AI, power and resources, and longevity themes to drive 2026 performance.”

UBS has provided the destination (7,700), but I Know First provides the vehicle to get there.

While UBS predicts a general "AI and Power" boom, our 2026 Opportunities Report identifies the specific tickers, commodities, and sectors that will lead this charge. Our algorithms have finished mapping the data for the next 12 months, creating a complete roadmap to capitalize on this predicted run.

Don't wait for 2027 to wish you had this information.

Weekly Apple Stock Update

Apple's stock received positive news in December 2025, as the European Commission credited the Digital Markets Act (DMA) for enabling smoother smartphone switching and data transfer between Apple and Android platforms—a globally rolling out feature that counters Apple's prior complaints about negative consumer impacts in Europe. Meanwhile, Apple has placed a larger-than-expected order for 22 million OLED panels from Samsung for its first foldable iPhone, signaling production of around 10 million units and a 2026 launch alongside the iPhone 18 series, featuring a book-style design with advanced displays and hinge technology. Analysts anticipate Apple's entry into the foldable market will boost global shipments by 30%, with the premium-priced iPhone Fold capturing over 22% market share and 34% market value in its debut year, challenging Samsung's dominance.
