šŸ“ˆ The marketā€™s hitting new highs! So, whatā€™s the right way to ride this bull? šŸš€ Right strategy + right picks = wallet on the rise!

Meet @Sherniceč»’å¬£ 2000, a Gen Z investor with a knack for spotting big playsā€”sheā€™s just posted a $171,219 gain on $Upstart Holdings, Inc.(UPST)$ calls! šŸŽ‰

@Sherniceč»’å¬£ 2000 isnā€™t new to sharing her insights and gains with us. Sheā€™s a dedicated Gen Z trader, now 24 going on 25, with a love for buying calls. Sheā€™s scored impressive returns on call options for $Powell(POWL)$, $Dell Technologies Inc.(DELL)$, $Affirm Holdings, Inc.(AFRM)$ and $Reddit(RDDT)$. šŸ’Ŗ

Hereā€™s a breakdown of her journey and insights on UPST:

In 2021, Upstartā€™s revenue surged 264% amid low-interest rates and a strong lending environment. But with rising rates, revenue slipped 1% in 2022 and then 39% in 2023, dipping Upstart into losses. Although analysts predict an 11% revenue growth in 2024, UPST isnā€™t yet profitable, which has made some investors cautious after its recent 46% spike.

Why the Long-Term Outlook is Still Bright:
Despite setbacks, Upstart has spent two years optimizing its AI, broadening its funding sources, and expanding partnerships. This groundwork could lead to sequential revenue growth, aiming for $400 million per quarter by late 2025, where profitability could finally kick in.

Shernice sees UPSTā€™s growth as a potential for valuation jumps. If Upstart sustains its momentum, a 15x sales multiple could bring its value to $24 billion or $263 per share, with milestones ahead. The current 32% short interest, paired with recent rate cuts, could boost its upside, with a target of $130 by yearā€™s end.

A Familiar Trend for Growth Tech Stocks:

Many 2020-2021 tech IPOs, like Upstart, saw massive growth before sliding during rate hikes.

Now, with markets at historic highs, thereā€™s renewed momentum, especially for undervalued tech growth stocks that could be ready to soar again.

Watch for Gap-Ups:

Several tech stocks, such as Z, APP, SOFI, SHOP, and PATH, have recently shown ā€œgap-upā€ patternsā€”where stock prices open significantly higher than the previous close. Often sparked by big news or events, these gaps can signal the start of new trends.

$AppLovin Corporation(APP)$

$Zillow(Z)$

$SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$

$Shopify(SHOP)$

$UiPath(PATH)$

When a stock breaks out from a consolidation or trading range with a gap-up, it often signals the start of a new trend. This pattern typically reflects strong buying interest, often triggered by news or major events, and can indicate that the price is likely to continue moving in the same direction.

What do you thinkā€”can the rally continue for tech growth stocks?
