GME GameStop - Short Squeeze in the Making!If you haven`t bought GME before the previous breakout: Now you need to know that GameStop (GME) is creating a buzz in the options market, especially as it gears up for an exciting week ahead! After experiencing an astronomical increase of over 121X in less than four months in the past, GME has captured the attention of traders and investors alike. This dramatic surge in price has raised speculation about the potential for another gamma squeeze, reminiscent of the impressive rallies seen in the past. With calls at the $125 strike price set to expire on January 17, 2025, there's palpable optimism in the air! The notable volume of these calls suggests that investors are positioning themselves for a significant move. Traders are eager to capitalize on the momentum that GME has built, especially with historical patterns indicating that such surges often lead to increased volatility and price spikes. The options chain for this Friday looks extremely bullish, with an uptick in activity signaling strong demand for GME calls. The convergence of high open interest and the upcoming expiration date has the potential to ignite a new wave of buying pressure, further fueling the chances of a gamma squeeze. As more traders enter the market, the cascading effects of rising call prices could push the underlying stock higher, benefiting those who are well-positioned in the options market!

NextEra Energy / NEE vs. NEPRenewable energy investments are in high demand by many investors, but many of these companies aren't very profitable yet or are unattractive due to other fundamental issues. NextEra Energy and NextEra Energy Partners are outliers, however, as they are highly profitable while also providing a growing income stream for their owners. In this report, I'll show why I believe that NextEra Energy Partners, LP is the significantly more attractive pick at current prices, relative to the mother entity NextEra Energy, Inc Renewable energy is in high demand around the world. Countries, corporations, and even individuals are spending heavily to increase the generation of electricity via hydro, solar, wind, geothermal energy, and so on. Many investors also want to invest in this macro megatrend, but not too many investment choices seem suitable for that. Many companies in this space are either not profitable or trading at very elevated valuations. Some have been clear bubble stocks in the past, along with many electric vehicle stocks that were also hyped up during the pandemic, which didn't work out for investors. In order to decide whether NEE or NEP is more attractive for investment today, we'll look at a couple of factors that investors might want to consider when making an investment decision. Both companies are marketed as renewable energy investments, but their actual exposure to renewable energy is very different. NextEra Energy Partners is highly exposed to renewable energy, as that industry contributes the vast majority of its revenue and profit: The company reports that around 80% of its revenue were created with its renewable energy business, both in the most recent quarter and in the Q1-Q3 2022 time frame. By contrast, around 20% of NEP's revenue was generated by its pipeline services, which could be called a hydrocarbon or "old energy" business. NextEra Energy Inc., on the other hand, is not as heavily exposed to renewable energy. NEER, NEE's renewable energy business unit, contributed just $1.6 billion of the company's overall revenue of $6.7 billion during the most recent quarter, or 24%. The majority of NEE's revenue is contributed by Florida Power & Lighting, a regulated electric utility. FPL has some renewable energy assets as well, but also uses non-renewable power assets for electricity generation on top of offering distribution etc. Overall, that makes NEE a less renewable-focused company relative to NEP. That does not have to be a bad thing per se, but for an investor that seeks to add renewable energy exposure, NEP with its ~80% exposure seems more suitable than NEE, which is more comparable to a typical regulated electric utility. A stock's valuation should always be considered when making investment decisions. Today, NEE trades at 28x this year's expected net profits, using the midpoint of management's guidance range. That's a pretty high valuation for an electric utility, and explains why NEE only receives a Valuation Score of F. Meanwhile, NEP is trading at just 8x CAFD today, which translates into a cash flow yield of 12.5% (versus an earnings yield of less than 4% for NEE). Not surprisingly, NEP has a way better Valuation Score of C+. NEP's valuation is thus not perfect, either, but easily outclasses the valuation NEE trades at. For those that prefer to look at net profit for both companies, although one can argue that cash flow is more telling for an LP like NEP, NEP looks way cheaper than NEE, as NEP's forward earnings multiple is 13.5 -- less than half as much compared to the valuation NEE trades at, despite NEP's better growth. Both companies have enjoyed healthy growth in recent years. During the most recent quarter, NEP grew its EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) by 13% year over year, while CAFD (cash available for distributions) grew by an even better 17% year over year. NEP continues to add new assets regularly, which drives its growth, although organic growth via rate increases and output optimization also plays a role. Overall, NEP isn't very large yet, with a market capitalization of $7 billion. An acquisition worth a couple hundreds of millions of dollars is thus enough to move the needle -- that's not true for NEE, which is valued at around $170 billion. Only very large takeovers or new projects move the needle for NextEra Energy, Inc. NEE forecasts that its earnings per share for 2022 will total $2.85 (final results have not been released yet), which would be up by 12% year over year. For a large electric utility, that's still pretty strong, but it's not as exciting as the growth that NEP has been delivering. Going forward, that should hold true as well. NEE is forecasting earnings per share growth of 7% for 2023, while EPS forecasts for 2024 and 2025 stand at 9% and 7%, respectively, using the midpoint of the EPS guidance range for each respective year.NEP, meanwhile, will likely deliver double-digit growth going forward, at least if management is correct. The company forecasts that its cash available for distribution run rate will be around $820 million at the end of 2023, which would be up from $730 million in 2022, which makes for a 12% increase. While management has not given out guidance numbers for 2024 and beyond, the higher growth in 2023, coupled with the fact that driving meaningful inorganic growth is easier as smaller acquisitions can have a larger impact, make me believe that NEP has a good chance of growing faster than NEE in 2024 and 2025 as well. That also impacts the dividend growth rate, which gets us to the next point.

GameStop Stock Evokes Dreams of Rocket Ships and Diamond HandsShares of the video game store tested retail traders’ survival skills. But the meme stock madness also bamboozled the pros. In the span of just a few regular trading sessions, with some stomach-churning pre-market action in between, GameStop once again made headlines. Roughly three years ago, Keith Gill — known as “Roaring Kitty” on the internet (mostly Reddit) — triggered a huge rally in the shares of a little known video game retailer called GameStop NYSE:GME . The Hidden Gem Roaring Kitty took a big long position in GameStop for his belief that it was a company with a lot of potential. And at the same time, he blamed the big bad hedge funds for keeping a lid on share-price growth by shorting the living thing out of it. Mr Kitty’s thesis caught the attention of fellow retail traders on Reddit’s r/WallStreetBets chat board, a place where self-described “degens” exchange fast-churning trading ideas. Soon after, shares were flying high, riding on gains of more than 2,000%. GameStop was set free and institutional investors got smoked. These were the good old days of speculative pumps and the absolute power of like-minded individuals seeking the thrill of quick profit and adrenaline rush. And — it seems — we’re back at it again with the meme stock corner going fully bananas. Roaring Comeback Roaring Kitty’s X account switched the lights on after three years of silence. In a rather vague post, he published a drawing of a man leaning forward . Boy, did that get understood in all the possible ways. Shares took off by as much as 75% a day after that post went live. A breakneck rally went on for a few more days, evoking dreams of rocket ships and diamond hands. A week later, none of that is there anymore. Shares are not only back where they were before the surge — they’re doing worse. The rollercoaster ride lifted the stock from $20 on Monday to $80 on Tuesday, a 300% pop per share. By Friday, shares had briefly dipped below $20, pulling off a boomerang move and erasing 75% from the stock’s weekly peak. And, this is how GameStop tricked retail investors into believing that this the GameStop rally 2.0. But, before that, it smacked professionals with huge losses on the way up. Same Old, Same Old Professional money managers had borrowed about 30% of all shares outstanding for — you guessed it — shorting purposes. The thing with shorting a stock, i.e. profiting from its decline, is that if you’re wrong, you can be wrong until your account is wiped out because shares could rise indefinitely. GameStop short sellers were ironed out. They lost more than $2 billion in just two days, according to data analytics firm S3 Partners. “After being down $862 million in mark-to-market losses yesterday, NYSE:GME shorts are down another $1.36 billion in mark-to-market losses today,” S3 Partners’ Managing Director Ihor Dusaniwsky commented on X . If only there was some similar experience in recent history that would inform hedge funds: Not to bet on a red-hot stock, popular among the retail crowds, because you’ll get burned if they come after you with a short squeeze. Not to bet on a red-hot stock that’s thinly traded, because you won’t be able to easily get rid of your short position that’s draining your funds. After all, they did make a movie ( “Dumb Money” ) about shorting GameStop. Yet, “smart money” did it again. Professional hedge funders weren’t the only ones to get knocked. What Goes Up Must Come Down The retail trading army on Reddit and X lost some serious cash, too. Just when shares were going in the other direction. Redditors on r/WallStreetBets initially cheered the first rays of the powerful upside swing. This sparked hopes of a revival before these same guys started flooding the board with screenshots of mounting losses as shares were nosediving. What Happened and Why the Fast About-Face? Other than the super frothy state of the highly inflated stock, what helped shares come back to earth was GameStop’s securities filing to sell some equity. Apparently, the C-suite of the video game store figured they could ride out the surge and issue up to 45 million shares that would dilute the number of existing shares by as much as 15%. In another price-damaging filing , GameStop said that it expects net sales for the current quarter to land between $872 million and $892 million. The forecast is well below last year’s $1.237 billion and the consensus views for $1.045 billion. With that said, GameStop shares are still in the green for the year, following the head-spinning trip to the moon and back. So, until next time? We Want to Hear from You! Let us know about your experience with that volatile beast! Do you own shares, when did you buy, and are you optimistic about the future of GameStop?

[WSB] How to trade the GameStop Short Squeeze!r/wallstreetbets recently picked up the GameStop Stock (GME). Why? Because we basically have free money sitting here. GameStop struggled with keeping up with the growing digital gaming market and the price plummeted. With a strong focus on E-commerce, a strong brand with over 55 million PowerUp members and a solid team (Source: r/wallstreetbets "GME FULL STORY), we will most likely see further growth in the company in terms of revenue and stock price. I made this chart to verify important levels and an in depth trading-plan to reduce the risk as much as possible. Everything relevant is on the chart. The Cup & Handle Pattern is one of the easiest patterns to trade and extremly powerfull to extend a strong uptrend - which is highlighted by the Ascending Parallel Channel. Please make sure to place a Stop-Loss order and place your buy after the confirmation with a Breakout-Candle. Let me know if there are any questions and feel free to discuss in the comment section. cheers

Wall Street Projects 48% Decline In COIN Q1 EPS Despite Bull RunMarket analysts have predicted a significant drop of 48% in Coinbase's GAAP EPS in the first quarter of FY24, despite the ongoing surge in the crypto market. As Coinbase Global Inc.'s ( NASDAQ:COIN ) latest quarterly earnings report approaches, Wall Street analysts have provided their forecasts for the cryptocurrency exchange platform. Despite the ongoing bull run in the crypto market, expectations for the Coinbase Q1 2024 report suggest a substantial decline in GAAP earnings per share (EPS) of 48% compared to the previous quarter. For the first quarter of FY24, analysts are predicting EPS of $0.54 for Coinbase ( NASDAQ:COIN ), down from $1.04 in Q4 FY23, indicating a massive decline of over 48% quarter-over-quarter. Some have questioned the Wall Street estimates, considering that the first quarter of FY24 experienced a significant bull run that even caused Coinbase's servers to crash. Looking ahead, the projections for Coinbase's performance reveal a mixed outlook. Revenue growth is expected to maintain momentum, with a projected 54% year-over-year (YoY) increase in 2024, followed by a more modest 0.5% growth in 2025. Meanwhile, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is anticipated to surge by an impressive 120% YoY in 2024, but then face a 10% decline in 2025. In addition, the situation becomes more nuanced when examining net income growth projections. Analysts anticipate an extraordinary 300% YoY surge in 2024 for Coinbase's net income. However, they also forecast a subsequent 36% decline in 2025, which could signal a potential end of the ongoing bull market. Coinbase ( NASDAQ:COIN ) reported a profit of $273.4 million for the three months ending December 31, compared to a $557 million loss a year before. Analysts, according to LSEG data, had expected a loss of $0.1 per share. However, the surge in interest in cryptocurrencies led Coinbase Global to unveil a new chapter on Thursday, marking its first quarterly profit since 2021, fueled by strong trading volumes. During the same period, the company also recorded a notable 64% surge in transaction revenue to $529.3 million. The stronger-than-expected outcome propelled the company's shares upward the day after the announcement, with the Coinbase ( NASDAQ:COIN ) stock soaring nearly 15% in the pre-market session that day. Additionally, Coinbase ( NASDAQ:COIN ) revealed that its subscription and services division encompasses activities beyond trading. Moreover, the crypto exchange provided an optimistic outlook for a successful first quarter this year. It forecasted sales for the segment to range between $410 million and $480 million, surpassing the LSEG estimate of $356.22 million. However, the results showed a decline in Coinbase's transaction revenue to $1.5 billion in 2023, marking a 36% year-on-year decrease. Furthermore, total trading volume plummeted nearly 44% compared to the previous year, standing at $468 billion.
