Author argues SOAR is undervalued due to its pivot from private aviation to critical minerals and supportive macro tailwinds.
Unpriced research observations (excluded from Calls and Returns):
SOAR — LONG Volato is pivoting from private aviation to critical minerals through its M2i Global merger, with access to 40+ Australian mines for lithium, antimony, and graphite and plans for a U.S. strategic mineral reserve. The author sees Trump's 'America First' policies and decoupling from China as a macro tailwind that will benefit companies with Western mineral pipelines via federal support and defense contracts. Management's pause of ATM offerings until June 2026 signals undervaluation and reduces dilution fears; the author expects a violent reversal once the market recognizes SOAR as a strategic minerals play, with 2025/2026 catalysts. resolved_asset_type_mismatch
The stock is currently trading at "broken company" levels, but the "material" (Australian minerals) and the "theme" (Trump/U.S. Priority) are rock solid. Once the market realizes this is a Strategic Mineral play and not just a struggling flight operator, the reversal could be violent.
