How about typing it (“toast”) into wikipedia. That will bring you to a disambiguation page where you can select the software company.
Or you could type the previously mentioned ticker (TOST) into yahoo finance.
You've made it way too time consuming for something I don't have sufficient motivation to investigate.
It would have been much simpler / easier if you to had provided more information / context.
Isn't it easier to do a search (or just scroll up two posts) than to post asking what was meant?
Also he mentioned earnings in parentheses. And this is a "Moonshot" thread. I didn't know what "Toast" was either but it's pretty clear it's a company/stock.

Where in that post was there any indication that there had been any prior mention of it in this topic?

Yes, in retrospect that was more information. When I add "stock" and do a search of "Toast stock" I do get proper results, including seeing its symbols TOST.
I'm looking at its chart for this week.
I generally do not deal with or examine any individual stocks. But is it noteworthy that its price went from about $24 to about $27? From my limited understandings of stock prices that seems somewhat normal? Nothing out of the ordinary?

Re: Moonshots
Well, Xan successfully explained to me and I just responded how If I'd thought more about the topic title and the word "earnings" then I should have known you were referring to a stock. Therefore, the additional helpful piece of information would have been its symbol (TOST). And, also why you thought there was any significant going on as I did not see anything out of the ordinary looking at its stock price graph for the week.dualstow wrote: ↑Thu May 09, 2024 8:49 pmCould you please elaborate?yankees60 wrote: ↑Thu May 09, 2024 6:40 pm I'm a firm believer that the sender has the responsibility for communication being successful, not the receiver.

Re: Moonshots
Was I supposed to have remembered that this stock had been referred to here 1 1/2 months ago?
If anyone else did ... I am super impressed! There would have been no reason for me to remember since I have no interest in purchasing individual stocks though I do have interest in story stocks just for their stories, like Nvidia.

Re: Moonshots
No. I mean it could be on its way down to $2 and change for all I know, so it is not particularly significant. Percentagewise, it is not a small gain, but I’m in it for the long haul (again, maybe on the way down) so that is also not terribly significant.
But, they recently turned a profit (Look how long it took Amazon) and I am hopeful that the shares are going to rise over the next several years.
Just a fun stock to watch. I remain a big believer in owning the total U.S. market with most of one’s equity money and I pay more for two years of cable than I have invested in this stock.

Re: Moonshots
Lululemon is back down to around the same price as when I was looking at it a few years ago: two hundred dollars and change.
After touching as high $500 per share one point.
I'm really glad I don't speculate seriously.

They tried to venture out from their plain solid designs and nobody wanted it.
