Why I'm Buying Tesla Stock - Why I Bought Over $20,000 in $TSLA Stock Today!

7/27/2020

0 Comments

 
Today I explain why I am buying Tesla Stock. I purchased over $20k in $TSLA today. Is Tesla stock too high? Am I crazy? Maybe. I provide Tesla stock analysis and why I'm buying TSLA stock.

From Seeking Alpha: "Summary: TSLA reported a GAAP profit in Q2, and are now eligible for S&P 500 inclusion. Inclusion in the index will lead to increased institutional buying, leading to lower cost of capital. Despite the inclusion of TSLA being seemingly inevitable, the stock is tapering off. This is likely due to the insane run-up in the stock heading into the report. Buy the dip. TSLA is becoming ever-so reminiscent of AMZN, a comparison I don't make lightly. The company's disruption of multiple industries and focus on reinvesting profits expose the similarities between the two companies. TSLA bears continue to grasp at straws and move goalposts, while the one of the most innovative companies in America eviscerates their short positions. The only legitimate barrier to entry with investing in TSLA is the valuation. Rating reiterated at BUY, PT remains $1,750. Tesla's Q2 Report: Sell The News With the hype surrounding Tesla's (NASDAQ:TSLA) second quarter earnings release, it seemed hard to see the stock racing any higher. Going into the report, retail, sell-side, and buy-side expectations seemed calibrated around a GAAP profit, and inclusion into the S&P 500. Anything other than this would have been disastrous for the stock. This was reflected in options pricing going into earnings. The implied move in the stock was among the highest of companies reporting earnings, standing at ~15% in either direction. If you think about it, with all the hype and increased expectations surrounding the report, a blowout of astronomical proportions would've been required to get that 15% move to the upside. Combined with the insane run-up and being technically overbought, a bit of a pullback was overdue. Why S&P 500 Inclusion Is Such A Huge Boost While S&P 500 index inclusion is not a direct fundamental catalyst right now, it could be a catalyst for the stock (in the short-term) and for the fundamentals of the business (in the long-term). What do I mean by this? Well, considering that Tesla reported a GAAP profit of $0.50/share in the Q2 report, the company has become eligible for S&P 500 index inclusion. This inclusion will increase institutional ownership of the stock. When the company is plugged into the S&P 500, index funds and mutual funds will be forced to enter a position in Tesla. A lot of these funds are buy-and-hold investors, not traders. Thus, a large portion of Tesla's float will be bought up by massive institutional holders. Because these managers hardly alter their positions, a large portion of the float will not be traded as frequently. This will likely lead to decreased volatility, which would lower Tesla's cost of capital. Though Tesla is firmly cash flow positive, and already has $8.6 billion in cash, one final massive capital raise could allow them too supercharge (no pun intended) their expansion plans. Think about it, Tesla is still set to expand Fremont factory, the Nevada Gigafactory, Gigafactory Shanghai, Gigafactory Texas, and Gigafactory Berlin. The last of those two factories will be the largest of Tesla's factories. The creation of these plants, and the ramp to full capacity production would be benefited immensely by a large capital raise. By being included into the S&P 500 index, not only will Tesla gain a prestige by being an S&P 500 component, certain investors will likely be forced to buy Tesla stock in order to get exposure to the S&P 500 index as a whole. Increased buying pressure from large institutional investors will likely lead to higher stock in the short-term, and a less volatile one in the long-term. Lower volatility leads to a lower cost of capital, making large scale equity-based (or convertible) capital raises easier to pull off." Tesla is already 2.47% of the Nasdaq 100 $QQQ.

Renaissance IPO ETF Review - How to Buy Ant Financial IPO Stock? $IPO $IPOS

7/22/2020

0 Comments

 
Today I provide detailed stock analysis on Renaissance Capital ETF $IPO and $IPOS. $IPO could be an excellent way to play disruptive growth stock IPOs like Zoom, Crowdstrike, Moderna, Datadog, Uber, Pinduoduo, Slack, NIO, and many more! Could these ETFs also be the best way to play Ant Financial's upcoming IPO? Ant Group, an affiliate of Alibaba, announced plans for its long-awaited dual listing in Shanghai and Hong Kong on Monday. Ant Group runs Alipay, one of China’s most popular mobile payment apps, but has also been expanding into products such as wealth management and loans. Ant Group has not priced its shares yet, but one analyst said the company could be valued at over $200 billion. Ant will be the largest IPO of all time, but it will not be US listed. I will explain how to buy Ant Financial IPO stock / how to buy Ant Group stock if you do not have access to Shanghai or Hong Kong markets.

Lemonade Insurance - New Disruptive Technology IPO Stock - Should You Buy $LMND?

7/1/2020

0 Comments

 
Today I cover Lemonade (LMND) stock, which has an IPO launch of July 2, 2020. Lemonade insurance uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) and chatbots (Maya) to replace salespeople. Lemonade offers renters and home insurance powered by tech and driven by social good. Should you buy this new disruptive-technology stock? Lemonade, the so-called insurtech backed by SoftBank Group, could raise as much as $308 million after increasing the price range for its much-anticipated initial public offering. Lemonade is expected to begin trading Thursday (July 2, 2020), Barron’s has learned. The New York–based start-up is selling 11 million shares at $26 to $28 each, according to a June 30 Securities and Exchange Commission filing. That’s up from the $23-$26 price range it had planned to offer. Lemonade is seen trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker $LMND. "As the world is buffeted by digital and societal revolutions, Lemonade Inc. is hoping to leverage the uncertainty created by those upheavals to reshape an industry meant to provide peace of mind: insurance. Lemonade LMND, has filed for an initial public offering to be led by underwriters Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Allen & Co., Barclays, JMP Securities, Oppenheimer & Co., William Blair and LionTree. The New York-based company, founded in 2016, says in its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it uses artificial intelligence and big-data algorithms to streamline the processes of buying insurance and filing claims, while minimizing volatility and “maximizing trust and social impact.” The company is attempting to approach the insurance industry the way companies like CrowdStrike Holdings Inc. CRWD, +2.65% and Salesforce.com Inc. CRM, +2.43% approached the software industry — by reimagining a legacy business for the world that exists now. Lemonade says it wants to be an insurance company “built from scratch on a digital substrate, a contemporary business model and no legacy.”

In 2018, Lemonade donated 2.7 percent of its leftover premiums to charity, totaling $162,000. In 2019, that increased to 3.5 percent when it donated $631,500. And given that the company has never not lost money, Lemonade’s investors seem the generous ones, standing by while their money is given out to charity. Meanwhile, Lemonade executive salaries totaled $1.5 million in 2019, and total executive compensation came to $6.3 million, a 10x amount compared to its charitable giving. What are the strengths for Lemonade stock? What are the risks of Lemonade stock? Should you buy LMND stock?
