ROI
RiskOn International, Inc. Common Stock
stock NASDAQ

PA has better ROI and employment.

I think this is the most retarded thing I’ve literally ever seen on WSB. The stock was at 660 levels Tues / Wed. It’s rebounded $100/share. And this guy thinks it could obliterate its ATH price by hundreds of dollars in a single day with no catalyst, before a holiday weekend no less. Slot machines would’ve offered a better ROI.

A huge problem is conversion attribution from ads. When the honeymoon phase of every advertiser wanting to be on Reddit now that it’s fully mainstream wears off and those advertisers need to see a return on their investment, things are going to get rocky tor the same reasons Pinterest has so much trouble with ad ROI

OP makes a poor comparison. This is a tech bubble like the dotcom bubble. Howard Marks describes such bubbles well. While AI will drive real productivity gains, it's hard to predict where to find the ROI. Many huge investments will fail while others will succeed. Expect significant declines while winners and losers sort themselves out.

No, there a huge list of additional sources of revenue they can continue to tap into -
Automotive & Autonomous Driving
Nvidia’s DRIVE platform is becoming the de facto compute stack for autonomous vehicles. Automotive revenue hit ~$1.69B in FY2025 and Jensen Huang himself projected $5B by FY2026. The total addressable market is projected at $4.5 trillion by 2034 per Loop Capital. Critically, Nvidia isn’t just selling chips to cars — it’s selling the full simulation and training infrastructure (Omniverse, synthetic data) to build autonomous systems. That’s a recurring, software-rich revenue model.
Robotics & Physical AI (Isaac Platform)
This is the sleeper. Nvidia’s Isaac GR00T foundation models, Newton physics engine (co-developed with Google DeepMind and Disney Research), and Omniverse simulation platform are being adopted by Boston Dynamics, Figure AI, Agility Robotics, and 30+ other leading robotics companies. The physical AI market is projected to grow at 32.5% CAGR from 2026–2033, reaching ~$49.7B by 2033. Nvidia is positioned as the AWS of robotics — the infrastructure layer every builder runs on. If even a fraction of Elon Musk’s projected 1–10 billion industrial robots runs on Isaac, the revenue potential is staggering.
NIMs & AI Enterprise Software
NIM microservices and NVIDIA AI Enterprise represent the shift from one-time hardware sales to recurring software revenue. Jensen noted AI Enterprise revenue more than doubled year-over-year. This is still small in absolute terms but is the highest-quality revenue type — predictable, margin-expanding, and compounding.
Sovereign AI Infrastructure
This is arguably the biggest near-term new revenue source. Oppenheimer estimates the sovereign AI TAM at $1.5 trillion globally, with Europe alone representing ~$120B. Governments — from UAE to Indonesia to Germany — are now buying full Nvidia AI Factory stacks (Vera Rubin hardware + Omniverse DSX + networking + software) to build national AI infrastructure they fully control domestically. Jensen explicitly called this out in the Q1 FY2027 report as a major emerging revenue pillar. This isn’t chipset sales to hyperscalers — it’s end-to-end infrastructure deals measured in billions per country.
Quantum-Classical Hybrid Computing
At GTC 2025, Nvidia unveiled NVQLink, a system that bridges quantum processing units (QPUs) directly with Nvidia GPUs. This is an early-stage bet that positions Nvidia as the essential classical compute layer in quantum workflows — rather than being disrupted by quantum, Nvidia is making itself necessary to quantum. Revenue here is 5–8 years away, but the strategic position matters enormously.
Digital Twins & Omniverse DSX
Omniverse is evolving from a visualization tool into an industrial operating system for simulating physical reality — factories, power grids, logistics networks, AI factories themselves. The DSX blueprint (used to design and validate AI factories before they’re physically built) is now deployed at sovereign AI sites globally. Industrial giants like Siemens, BMW, and Amazon use Omniverse for factory simulation. As enterprises pay software licensing fees for Omniverse-based digital twins, this becomes a recurring, high-margin stream separate from hardware.
Healthcare & Life Sciences AI
Nvidia’s Clara platform and partnerships with healthcare systems are accelerating rapidly — 85% of healthcare executives now say AI is increasing their revenue, and 85% plan to increase their AI budgets this year. Nvidia is selling accelerated computing for drug discovery (partnered with pharmaceutical firms), medical imaging, and hospital workflow AI. This sector has historically been slow-moving, but the ROI case has now been made clearly enough to unlock significant enterprise spend.
Networking as a Standalone Business
InfiniBand and Spectrum-X Ethernet (the Mellanox acquisition paying off) now represent a multi-billion dollar business embedded in every large AI cluster Nvidia sells. As AI clusters scale into gigawatt-level AI factories, the networking fabric becomes its own ticket — not just an accessory to GPUs. Competitors can’t easily replicate the tight integration between Nvidia networking and CUDA-optimized workloads.
GeForce Now & Consumer Cloud Gaming
Smaller in context but real: GeForce Now has 25M+ subscribers growing steadily, now monetizing with tiered subscriptions ($9.99–$19.99/month) and advertising revenue on the free tier. This is Nvidia’s only true consumer subscription revenue and represents a strategic wedge — keeping gamers in the Nvidia ecosystem regardless of whether they own Nvidia hardware.

No one has been able to explain why they think acquiring eBay will improve the share price (beyond the initial absorption of eBay value).
It’s clear that MMs are afraid to touch it and are keeping the price anchored to a very specific range because if they crash it too low, it gets snapped up and they can’t risk it going too high.
Ultimately that just means the performance of the company has been completely decoupled from the ticker.
**So how exactly is acquiring eBay going to touch the stock price?** I’m positive that Ryan can trim the fat and more than double net profits year 1.
HOW tf does that matter if the MMs will not allow for organic price discovery?
The manipulation of the price (evident through the 90%+ orders going through dark pools to this day) means that they cannot afford to let it go up. Why does anyone think this will change if they buy eBay??! So the market cap goes up and maybe the price moves up to $50-60/share. **It’s going to sit there anchored just like it’s sitting in the low 20s now.**
Why on earth would hedge funds let go of the price in order to earn a few tens of billions of profit when they stand to lose hundreds of billions on their GME shorts??? It makes no sense.
Yes I think Ryan can make that company run beautifully and probably earn double or triple revenues in the first year or two. AND I think all that can happen and the ticker will still not be allowed to move. I think this is a 20 year gamble for Ryan and it is death to the ROI for the average retail investor currently holding who came in for MOASS.
I hope there’s something I’m not seeing and I’m certain there is information they’re not sharing and rightfully so. Maybe there is an upside and eBay was a deliberate choice. I hope there’s some unknown etf that eBay is in that they’ve been using to pump and leverage the GameStop price. But I have no reason to believe that hedge funds are just going to happily cede control of the price when it could bankrupt them.

CAGR or ROI?

none, only mine if you own your own ASIC
**Cloud Mining Contracts** Most are ponzis, fractionally reserve mine, or charge too high fees which mean you will never ROI. Cloud mining typically falls into 3 categories
**a)** legit mining company that actually mines what you invest, but is misleading to clients the harsh reality of hashing difficulty increasing and fees = You will not profit and not make a ROI
**b)** Cloudmining company that fractionally reserve mines to keep up appearances and prove they actually are doing some mining but in reality do not mine the hashrate that they are contractually obligated to = You will not profit and not make a ROI
**c)** Straight up ponzi scheme with no mining = You will not profit and not make a ROI
Mining is very competitive and if miners need to both pay for marketing, profit sharing , affiliate revenue, and management of many small clients or partners this overhead will quickly drive them out of business.
Keep in mind that BTC mining difficulty is typically increasing , which means the payouts are fine initially but than naturally get smaller and smaller as the months go on. So at first everything seems fine than you notice later you start to get less and less until there is no payout.
So people that cloud mine either come away from the experience bitter and don't return , or they make a profit , but not from mining but from the appreciation of Bitcoin during their contract. I.E... They invest 500 USD , cloud mining company pays back 300 USd of BTC over the next year , but because Bitcoin appreciated in value that BTC is now worth 800 dollars and the client is happy because they don't have the know how to compare what that investment would be worth if they simply sat on it and waited for their bitcoin to appreciate in value.

Hey everyone,
Looking at the macro data for Bitcoin (BTC), the asset is at a critical juncture as it tests major structural support. We are also officially launching our new localized LLM AI assistant on Crypto Weeklies to help summarize these complex risk models instantly without hallucinations. Based on the regression, sentiment, and machine learning models, here is the breakdown for BTC.
From a technical perspective, Bitcoin has cooled off and is currently sandwiched against the 20-week simple moving average, which sits right around $74,976. If Bitcoin closes the week below $75,000, it confirms a breakdown of this critical support. The daily 50-SMA has already been lost. If the trend mirrors the fake out rejections we saw in 2018 and 2022, June could bring significant downside volatility. The larger macro lifelines remain the 200-week SMA at $61,000 and the 300-week SMA tracking between $53,000 and $54,000.
Fundamentally, Bitcoin is currently outside of our deep accumulation territory, holding a composite risk score of 0.35 (accumulation typically triggers below 0.30). Furthermore, our narrative tracking shows that bullish sentiment is fading while bearish narratives are ascending, driving the overall social sentiment risk down to 18 out of 100.
Looking at downside risk, our AI models and historical ROI comparisons suggest that if this bearish trend solidifies, the ultimate macro floor sits between $45,000 and $48,000. Immediate structural support lies within the previous 2024 consolidation channel, which ranges from $54,000 at the bottom to $63,000 at the midpoint.
Ultimately, holding $75,000 is vital for the bulls. If that level gives way, the data suggests the "Sell in May" seasonality is in full effect.

Sorry if this is the wrong sub for this, I’m curious specifically on the financial aspects. Are physicians / residents actually making money from this? I’ve seen an increasing # of physicians who have several tens of thousands of followers. Is their financial incentive to this? I would imagine simply working more would have a better financial ROI, maybe with the exception of physicians marketing their own business.

Another week of running low delta Short Put Verticals as part of my Systematic Premium Selling strategy (no, I did not make up that name).
MU and SNDK continue to lead the pack but volatility is decreasing.
Account is up $ 26,490 for the month and $49,719.
I have taken distributions this year of $15,000 so my actual profits are $31,490 for the month and $ 64,719 on the year.
I have been day trading these spreads closing at 20% profit due to the market instability.
 Here are my rules for trading Short Put Verticals:
* **All SVP's will be opened 35 to 49 DTE**
* **Short put strike chosen at .20 delta or lower (I have been choosing 13/6 deltas for new verticals).**
* **Long put chosen to achieve a net delta of .07**
* ***All the following criteria must be met prior to opening trade***
* **Analysis of spreads Max Profit must show 80% or more probability for Maximum Profit**
* **Analysis of spread's Break Even must show 80%or more probability for Any Profit**
* **Analysis of Max Loss must show 10% or less Probability for Maximum Loss**
* **ROI for premium collected (premium divided by collateral required for spread) must be 10% or more**

Using BOXX as collateral for margin CSPs is clever since it pays a Treasury-like yield while your buying power backs the short puts, but watch the margin maintenance if BOXX dips. I prefer scanning for CSPs where the annualized premium beats the collateral yield by a clear margin. I use Days to Expiry to rank CSP opportunities by ROI and see which strikes justify the capital. What tickers are you targeting with this structure?

Pipeline is a challenge, but I believe they have cash flow to preserve dividend while they work that out. Might take a (long) while to get postivie ROI beyond the dividend itself. I’ve been long for about 8 years, down on the share price but the dividends have more than offset it.

That's a fair, safe way to look at things, and many people need to stick to that to avoid bad debt, but for many people living a little bit above what makes strict "ROI" financial sense is fine. If you understand your finances and the debt you're taking on, you can go a little bigger to live a better life, and that's okay.
I think we're saying the same thing, if you consider investing in your own happiness when you can to be valid.

My take on loans like that is to think of them as an investment, and then consider the ROI. College loans can make sense if it's a degree that helps you get a career that pays well. (At least well enough to pay of the loans and still have a reasonable life.)
A car loan makes sense when you need a vehicle to get to a job, or the interest is low enough that investing that cash has a better return.

She's absolutely right. I live here in WI and I'm outraged at the lack of transparency and legislation, that never happened, regarding these data centers, their pollution, and their lack of viable ROI. They need to be disassembled and removed. Idc how it happens, but they can sincerely fuck off. I will gladly pay a tax to see them ousted. Enough is enough!

There is no state other than delusion where optometrists make 220k median for associates. I’ve been a practicing OD for almost ten years and unless you own your own business or have nepotism you’re gonna be in the 120-180k range in most places. ROI is terrible for the tuition costs currently. Reimbursements have been stagnant for decades. Workload and patient count goes up and up yet wages don’t move and haven’t for years. I’d avoid it if you can unless you’re getting your tuition paid for and/or have an industry in. 

Follow your dreams and do what you love. Life isn’t always about minimizing profits. Don’t worry about the ROI.

Terrible ROI, you need a richer source.
Personally, I steal my copper from hospital backup generators

Correct. OP is being such a baby about his $21k "loss" (I don't know how you lose money you didn't have) and is forgetting that he made a 30.5% ROI on this buying power.
