The Daily Hype - Boeing (BA)

6/30/2020

 
We are looking at Boeing (BA) today.
Why Boeing (BA) stock fell today?

The news is that airlines have gradually started to cancel their 737 Max orders, which means the company will have a tough time moving its already 400 manufactured planes. This corporate crisis is much deeper and lingering longer than most investors had previously expected. 
Moreover,  a 52-page report is expected to get released on Wednesday by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Office of Inspector General (IG) to outline what has gone wrong during the certification process of 737 Max jets that ended up causing two fatal crashes. 

Boeing's story is a perfect reminder to investors that corporate crises last much longer than we all expect. There is no rush to buy the dip. True dips are extremely painful. True dips are hard and agonizing, and they typically take longer than expected to recover. This means to generate an outsized return from a stock dip, and you need to be extremely patient. Visit Boeing's Stock Card to review the 737 Max's impact on the company in more detail.

Investing in companies such as Boeing takes patience. If you choose to invest in it to benefit from its lower historical price, you need to have a long-term horizon as part of something like a retirement account with decades of waiting time. Personal Capital is an excellent platform we came across to manage your long term goals. Check it out:

The Daily Hype - Simon Property Group (SPG)

6/29/2020

 
We are looking at Simon Property Group (SPG) today.
Why Simpon Property Group (SPG) stock jumped today?

Shares of Simon Property Group were up more than 17% on Monday. Like most REITs, the company had stopped its dividend payment in response to the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on the commercial real estate market. On Monday, the company resumed its dividend at 50%, and that was enough to give investors confidence about the future of the company.
It's no surprise that the stock was initially hit significantly due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Investors were expecting a drastic shift to work-from-home living and e-commerce across the world. The fear of drastic change in the way people live and work spooked investors away from real estate income trusts such as SPG. However, with a solid and robust balance sheet, SPG is among some of the most reliable REITs (get the list). The hopes of reopening the economy are renewing trust in the future of the stock and its dividend payment power. Make sure to have a look at the company's Stock Card.

 If you don't have a brokerage account to invest in REITs, here is one of the best. We like the M1 Finance app that has an easy-to-use interface and automatic dividend-reinvestment feature. Give it a try if you are in the market for a new brokerage account:

One company that runs the Work-From-Home infrastructure

6/27/2020

 
Last week, Direxion launched a new ETF to focus on the so-called Work-From-Home (WFH) stocks. The ETF is very new in its debut and includes all the usual WFH suspects. As is customary around Stock Card, we took a look at the fund's holdings and went straight to the not-so-well-knows stocks on the list. Many times those unknown stocks end up being the talk of the town in a few weeks, and we get to research hem a little sooner than others.  
The majority of WFH stocks have gone through rapid and upward stock price movements since the start fo the COVID-19 pandemic. However, one company on the Direxion EFH ETF hasn't followed that trend, quit curiously. Does that mean there is an opportunity to pick up a WFH stock at a somewhat undervalued price range? Based on the financial analysts' average price target of $20 per share, that can be the case. Let's dig a little bit more.

Meet 8X8 (EGHT)
"8x8 Inc provides contact-center-as-a-service and unified-communications-as-a-service software applications to over 1 million users in eight countries." That means the company helps companies of all size enterprises deal with the massive surge in the video and video-communications. On the positive side, the company's revenue has been growing double-digit. However, not only the company isn't profitable; neither does it generate free cash flow. It also has some long-term debt and no free cash flow. Perhaps that's why the stock hasn't jumped despite being an enabler of the so-called Work-From-Home era. 
Picture
The one Work-From-Home stock to watch
While researching the stock, we learned about the company's recent transition to Oracle (ORCL) cloud infrastructure. The surge in video communication needs and petabytes of data transfer forced 8X8 to transition Oracle. Interesting, Zoom (ZM), the pinnacle of the WFH stocks, also runs its infrastructure on Oracle's cloud infrastructure. 
We started this blog post with 8X8 in mind, but we end it with Oracle as a new addition to our watchlist. It may not be unfair to say that the WFH era is run on Oracle's shoulders. Make sure to check out Oracle's Stock Card, and while you are at it, look at 8X8 and Zoom's Stock Card's too.

​One of the best ways to invest in Work-From-Home (WFH) stocks is to go slow and small and avoid taking too much risk. Here are our top three brokerages that allow you to invest with a small amount of money:

Stash  -Start With $5
Public - Invest Any Amount

Introducing the list of "Companies Shaping the Future"

6/26/2020

 
New and innovative products and services are making our day-to-day lives faster and easier. We drive safer, get the stuff we need sooner, pay for everything using a new online payment method, and our work, social interactions, and life are digital now. Companies enabling all those things are shaping our future. Some everyday examples are Tesla's electric cars, Zoom's video conferencing platform, or PayPal's payment solutions. The beauty of being a stock market investor is that we can be part owners of these future-shaping companies. Today, we are introducing a new list of companies shaping the future to make it easy for our users and community to discover and research them.

Discovering the companies shaping the future
If you've ever used Stock Card's Discover page, you can look up companies by more than 500 themes. Examples of such themes are "artificial intelligence" and "5G Technology." Our team at Stock Card spends a lot of time refreshing these themes and lists.

To create a list of companies shaping the future, we identified the themes and industries that are using advanced technology to develop their products. We came up with more than 100 such markets. You can access some of those lists by using the search bar on Stock Card's Discover page, or click on them below:
  • Augmented reality, 
  • Drones, 
  • 5G technology.

Results
The result is a list of more than 1000 amazing companies that live their lives to create and shape humanity's future. Some of these companies may be very small and young and maybe worth adding to your watchlist. Some have built technologies that are already widely used and could be candidates for your portfolio. Among them, you can find strong and growing companies that are available at a lower price.

The Daily Hype - SolarEdge (SEDG)

6/25/2020

 
We are looking at SolarEdge (SEDG) today.
Why SolarEdge stock fell today?

Shares of SolarEdge were down more than 7% on Thursday. An analyst from Goldman Sachs issued a "sell" rating for the stock, and investors didn't like the news a bit. Brian Lee from Goldman believes the company has peaked its U.S. share of inverter systems for solar photovoltaic (PV) installations, and the margin is under a lot of pressure too.
The company has been one of the high-flyers of the market in recent quarters. Even with the decline on Thursday, the stock has gained more than 60% in the last three months. Something to watch, if the price drops further.
