$SMCI: THE PATTERN DOESN'T LIE
SMCI (update): Co-founder arrested on $510M export control charges; 3rd compliance failure in 8yrs (delisted 2018-20, EY resigned Oct'24, now DOJ indictment). Q2 rev $12.7B (+123% YoY) but gross margin collapsed 13.1%→6.3% on hyperscaler pricing pressure. Insiders: 22 sales, 0 buys in 5yrs. Nvidia dependency risk; Dell now credible alternative at scale.
