‘There’s a method to the madness,’ analyst says

There’s a tug of war between Tesla (TSLA) bulls and bears on Wall Street. Tesla reported an earnings beat for Q3, but a revenue miss, reflecting a concern among some that demand might be coming down a bit for its premium electric vehicles. Tesla bulls contend that CEO Elon Musk said challenges to physical delivery of vehicles to customers was a main bottleneck — and why the number of cars produced in Q3 was significantly higher than deliveries. “In fact, we’re just fundamentally running… Source link

Netflix is ‘doing everything from a position of strength now,’ analyst says

Netflix (NFLX) is showing signs of a comeback, at least according to one bullish analyst. “I think it’s back to growth,” Santosh Rao, Manhattan Venture Partners head of research, told Yahoo Finance Live (video above). “It’s doing everything from a position of strength now because the big concern was: Are they rushing into this ad tier model from a position of weakness?

If Musk lifted Twitter’s ban on Trump, there would be ‘a much bigger problem to solve’: analyst

Former President Donald Trump could soon return to Twitter (TWTR) now that Elon Musk has agreed to move forward with his $44 billion acquisition of the social media company.

OPEC+ will cut oil production by 2 million barrels per day amid looming demand concerns and the ongoing friction between the West and Russia over the war in Ukraine.

Tesla is positioning itself as ‘the key stock in everyone’s ESG portfolio,’ analyst says

Apple consumers are cutting back on spending: Analyst

Rising interest rates, inflation, and currency fluctuations have slammed tech stocks this year. And while Apple (AAPL) is certainly feeling the pain — shares are off 20% year to date — it’s fared better than its peers, which are down as much as 30%, and in Meta’s (META) case, 60%.
