I have initiated coverage as a first analyst here on Seeking Alpha to cover names like SealSQ (LAES), Rezolve AI (RZLV), among others, with Buy ratings. Several of these tickers have delivered double to triple digit returns since initial coverage. I try to go beyond surface level metrics and headline numbers.

I look forward to learning and compounding together in the market.
