Perpetuals.com Ltd (Nasdaq: PDC) today announced backtest results for version two of BayesShield, its patent-pending AI engine developed for UpsideOnly.

UpsideOnly is a risk-free paper trading platform where users simulate trades using virtual money across global equity, commodity, foreign exchange and crypto markets. The platform is powered by BayesShield, an AI model that uses machine learning to identify consistently successful traders. It generates automated signals when enough qualified traders independently take the same position at approximately the same time. These signals inform UpsideOnly's trading strategies, with profits shared among eligible top-performing users.

UpsideOnly launched in May 2026 and now has more than 225,000 users and recorded $70 billion in notional trading volume. The live trading period remains too limited to draw conclusions about future performance.

📈 Momentum Movers

AI infrastructure owned the leaderboard, while one former front-runner found the trapdoor.

$AAOI ( ▲ 9.19% ) : Applied Optoelectronics, jumped 13 spots to #12: This week’s top dawg gained 43.8% after Q2 revenue hit $191.9M and management guided Q3 sales to $255M–$290M. Its 23.6K watchers came along for the ride. Risk: A small group of customers still supplies a substantial share of revenue.

$BAND ( ▲ 11.79% ) : Bandwidth, new at #19 from off-list: The cloud communications provider climbed 27.6% after quarterly revenue reached $220M and management raised its full-year outlook to $900M–$910M. AI services appeared in every $1M-plus customer win. Risk: GAAP gross margin fell to 36% from 40%.

$BLZE ( ▲ 3.92% ) : Backblaze, jumped nine spots to #9: Shares ripped 37.2% after revenue grew 18%, B2 Cloud Storage sales jumped 34%, and Backblaze signed a five-year, $335M CoreWeave agreement. Risk: The CoreWeave deal drove most of the quarterly increase in remaining performance obligations, creating a much bigger concentration bet.

$FFA ( ▲ 0.6% ) I: Faraday Future, fell nine spots to #10: The former leader dropped 30.9% this week but remained up 302% for the year, with 26.7K watchers tracking the unwind. Risk: Shareholders vote Aug. 12 on issuing common stock to convertible-note holders, followed by earnings Aug. 13. Dilution gets two swings.

$AEHR ( ▲ 3.34% ) : Aehr Test Systems, climbed five spots to #2: The semiconductor-testing name gained 28.9% as a $100.6M effective backlog supported fiscal 2027 revenue guidance of $130M–$150M. Risk: Fiscal 2026 revenue still fell to $50M from $59M, and the recovery depends heavily on AI customer ramps.

Next week’s swing factor: July CPI lands Aug. 12. Another hot inflation print would pressure the long-duration AI names, while a cooler reading could keep this earnings-driven momentum trade alive.
