Can HOOD's global expansion and crypto play justify the stock's premium valuation? Let's have a look at key factors before deciding whether to bet on it.
I rate WTCHF a buy due to its strong moat, clear growth story, and transformative e2open acquisition expanding its ecosystem and monetization opportunities. CargoWise's deep integration and single global codebase create high switching costs, driving customer stickiness and efficient R&D investment for ongoing innovation. The e2open acquisition accelerates WTCHF's roadmap by a decade, is earnings accretive, and offers significant cross-sell and synergy potential despite integration risks.
Apollo Global Management is reportedly working with five banks, including JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Goldman Sachs Group, to trade private credit. The collaboration will enable Apollo and its partners to syndicate investment grade debt on a larger scale, with the banks acting as broker-dealers, Bloomberg reported Thursday (May 29).
Zeta Global offers strong revenue growth, expanding AI-driven platform adoption, and trades at a valuation discount, supporting a positive long-term outlook. Legal risks from past financial and data privacy allegations remain a key overhang, warranting smaller position sizes and cautious entry. Healthy gross margins, improving operating leverage, and robust customer retention offset concerns over slowing growth and competitive threats.
Looking for broad exposure to the Small Cap Blend segment of the US equity market? You should consider the Global X Russell 2000 ETF (RSSL), a passively managed exchange traded fund launched on 06/04/2024.
I reiterate my buy rating for GLBE, as recent results and SHOP partnership updates enhance scalability and long-term growth potential. GLBE delivered strong Q1'25 results, with GMV and revenue both growing over 30% year-over-year and profitability improving significantly. The Shopify partnership extension, despite short-term topline optics, increases platform integration and should drive higher adoption and transaction volumes.
U.S. stock futures pointed to a slightly weaker open, while markets in Asia and Europe were mixed ahead of Nvidia's earnings later Wednesday.
OPEC+ output talks, global sanctions, and trade shifts push natural gas and oil markets into a volatile holding pattern with possible sharp breakouts.
VG's CP2 LNG plant is expected to support the export capabilities of the United States and solidify its position as the largest exporter of natural gas.
I assign a Hold rating to Hertz, as operational improvements are offset by ongoing revenue declines and demand uncertainty. HTZ has made significant progress on cost discipline, depreciation per unit, and liquidity, reducing near-term refinancing risk. The company's 'Buy Right' fleet strategy and improving used car market are driving margin tailwinds, but revenue growth remains elusive.
lululemon's U.S. growth slowed in 2024, but international expansion—especially in China—positions the company for long-term upside and market share gains. Despite rising competition from Alo Yoga, lululemon's loyal customer base, premium products, and innovation pipeline support its premium valuation. U.S. consumer caution remains, but easing trade tensions and cooling inflation could quickly improve sentiment and domestic performance.
