The market-leading Star network doesn't look so dominant anymore after losing the broadcast rights to Indian Premier League cricket.</p></li><li><p>The loss of cricket rights also undermined the Disney+ Hotstar streaming service.

As a result, the total number of video-streaming clients fell by 11.7 million names, or 5%.</p></li></ul><p>So I understand if some investors are feeling queasy about Disney's future prospects. The TV business is crumbling and the digital streaming alternative hasn't picked up the slack. Put that Disney share down and back away slowly!</p><p>Many Disney investors have done exactly that. The stock is trading 58% below the all-time high of early 2021. The price also sits just 6% above a multiyear low of $79.75. That low-water mark is only a week old.</p><p>And that brutal price drop went more than a few steps too far. Disney's stock is dramatically undervalued nowadays.</p><p>First, I wouldn't mind Disney modernizing its portfolio of products and services. Linear TV subscribers (cable, satellite, broadcast) are going all-digital at an alarming rate and the cord-cutting trend isn't going away. Finding buyers for legacy services like ESPN and ABC would accelerate Disney's quantum leap into cyberspace.</p><p>Second, it's no fun to lose more than 10 million streaming subscribers in one of the world's largest economies. However, Disney+ Hotstar is also the company's least lucrative streaming platform. Domestic Disney+ subscribers pay an average subscription fee of $7.31 per month. The average monthly fee for the Hotstar version is $0.59. If you have to lose lots of subscribers somewhere, this particular market doesn't hurt too much.</p><p>And other streaming services are holding their own with flat or rising subscriber counts in the third quarter. And don't forget about the Disney parks, experiences, and products division, whose third-quarter sales increased by 13% year over year. Ticket sales are booming at the international parks and cruise ships.</p><p>Disney's stock is trading within a stone's throw of price levels last seen in the fall of 2014. Over the same time span, trailing revenue is up by 80% and the company's central strategy is evolving as we speak.

First, Fiverr bears expected the business to wither at the end of coronavirus lockdowns. Then, they expected generative AI tools to make human freelancers in creative endeavors obsolete. The first end-of-the-world prediction was demonstrably wrong, and I think Fiverr will benefit from generative AI systems in the long run.</p><p>It's true that Fiverr's top-line growth has slowed down in recent quarters. That's a really common story, though. Let's have a look at Fiverr's revenue growth over the last three years, in comparison with two closely related businesses:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e8eda5c74119569488f37c573dfb82f2\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"387\"/></p><p>FVRR Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts</p><p>Advertising expert <strong>PubMatic </strong>and online game platform provider <strong>Roblox</strong> cross paths with Fiverr quite often. Thousands of freelancers are ready to provide digital art, solve programming issues, or even design entire Roblox games for a reasonable fee. Likewise, targeted ad campaigns and the digital assets that make them work are widely available on the Fiverr market. So it makes sense that these three companies showed similar top-line responses to the global inflation crisis. An economic crunch is not the best time to invest big money in ambitious ad campaigns or launch potentially moneymaking games -- there's not enough end-market interest to make it work.</p><p>The inflation-based downturn won't last forever, though. Purse strings will loosen when the inflation monster is put to bed, letting companies like Fiverr get back to high-octane revenue growth. And don't forget that this company already generates generous cash profits. Fiverr's free cash flow added up to $46 million over the last four quarters, which is a generous 13.5% of total sales over the same span. These cash profits should soar in a more normal business environment.</p><p>As for the generative AI threat, let me just point out that creative AI processes still require a lot of human input. Sure, ChatGPT is capable of writing some decent text and DALL-E 2 can generate stunning images -- but only with the right input prompts and a human selecting the best bits from the AI-generated output. That's still a game-changing dose of human influence.</p><p>Thus, Fiverr provides a vibrant marketplace for freelancing AI experts. The company takes this opportunity seriously, and I expect AI-managing services to contribute significant sales in the long run.</p><p>Yet, Fiverr's stock price has fallen more than 90% from the lofty peak of early 2021. Thanks to the perceived AI challenge, the plunge includes a 24% price drop over the last year.</p><p>So we are looking at a perfectly healthy business with tremendous long-term growth prospects, just champing at the bit until the economy can drive rising interest in its digital freelancer services. Meanwhile, Fiverr's stock trades at just 12.6 times forward earnings projections and 3 times trailing sales. It's a high-growth wolf in fire-sale sheep's clothing.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Got $1,000? 2 Stocks to Buy Now While They're on Sale.</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nGot $1,000? 2 Stocks to Buy Now While They're on Sale.\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-09-21 08:00 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/09/19/got-1000-2-stocks-to-buy-now-while-theyre-on-sale/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The last two years have been turbulent on Wall Street.

It's losing market share to <strong>Apple</strong>, which has parlayed its installed base of over 1 billion devices into a powerful platform for Apple Pay. Like much of the fintech sector, PayPal is also struggling with the macroeconomic realities as consumer spending has weakened and online spending has faded following the boom during the pandemic.</p><p>CEO Dan Schulman said he's stepping down at the end of the year, but the company has yet to name a successor. To shore up its profitability, the company also said it would lay off 7% of its staff in January.</p><p>Last month, PayPal's stock tumbled on its first-quarter earnings report even though it beat estimates on the top and bottom lines and raised its guidance. However, investors were concerned that the company dialed back its operating margin guidance as unbranded transaction growth outpaced branded transactions in PayPal's legacy business. Braintree, which helps businesses accept digital payments, drove growth in its unbranded segment.</p><p>After last month's sell-off, PayPal stock trades at just 13 times this year's expected adjusted earnings, which looks like a great price to pay for this leading fintech stock. </p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WBD\">Warner Bros. Discovery</a> (down 17.1%)</h2><p><strong>Warner Bros.

Discovery is facing a new challenge in the writers' strike.Starbucks could see growth slow in the second half of the year on consumer weakness.We're nearly at the halfway mark of 2023, and already the Nasdaq Composite has put up a banner year. The tech-heavy index is up 25%, reclaiming about half of last year's losses.However, not every Nasdaq stock was a winner in May, even though it was the month in which the tech sector rallied following a blowout earnings report from AI chipmaker Nvidia.Let's look at the three worst performers from the Nasdaq 100 -- an index that monitors the performance of the 100 largest stocks in the Nasdaq Composite -- in May to see if any of them are worth buying.Image source: Getty Images.1. PayPal (down 18.4%)PayPal was the worst performer on the Nasdaq 100, largely because the digital payments leader is facing challenges on multiple fronts. It's losing market share to Apple, which has parlayed its installed base of over 1 billion devices into a powerful platform for Apple Pay. Like much of the fintech sector, PayPal is also struggling with the macroeconomic realities as consumer spending has weakened and online spending has faded following the boom during the pandemic.CEO Dan Schulman said he's stepping down at the end of the year, but the company has yet to name a successor. To shore up its profitability, the company also said it would lay off 7% of its staff in January.Last month, PayPal's stock tumbled on its first-quarter earnings report even though it beat estimates on the top and bottom lines and raised its guidance. However, investors were concerned that the company dialed back its operating margin guidance as unbranded transaction growth outpaced branded transactions in PayPal's legacy business. Braintree, which helps businesses accept digital payments, drove growth in its unbranded segment.After last month's sell-off, PayPal stock trades at just 13 times this year's expected adjusted earnings, which looks like a great price to pay for this leading fintech stock. 2. Warner Bros. Discovery (down 17.1%)Warner Bros. Discovery's troubles continued last month as the media stock delivered a middling earnings report, and the stock swooned in the second half of the month as the ongoing writers' strike added to the company's challenges, which include a weakening ad market.Revenue in the quarter was down 5% year over year to $10.7 billion, and it posted a net loss of $1.1 billion. Its streaming segment did report a small $50 million profit on the basis of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). That's a sign it's making some progress on cutting costs, though it's clear the company has more work to do.In the second half of the month, the stock slipped with much of the media industry on concerns that the writers' strike could drag out, affecting the pipeline of new content Warner Bros. Discovery and its peers rely on to attract users to its networks and streaming services. The company will also probably have to pay its writers more once the strike ends. WBD also launched its new Max streaming service, which combines HBO Max and Discovery+, though some critics have questioned the wisdom of eliminating the HBO brand from the title.With the writers' strike lingering, weakness in the ad market, intense competition in streaming, and nearly $50 billion in debt on the balance sheet, the stock could have even further to fall.3. Starbucks (down 14.6%)Rounding out the list was Starbucks, which also posted a solid earnings report last month, but the stock fell as the company declined to raise its guidance for the full year, indicating that it's cautious about the rest of the fiscal year. Fiscal second-quarter numbers were solid, with revenue up 14% year over year to $8.7 billion as comparable sales rose 11% globally, including a 12% jump in North America and a 3% rise in China.Starbucks seemed to benefit from the reopening in China and lapping the peak of the COVID-19 omicron variant in the United States. The company is targeting 15%-20% EPS growth in 2023, for a range of $3.41-$3.55. The stock drifted lower in the second half of the month on weakness in the retail sector as investors fear declining demand for discretionary goods, but the sell-off could be a buying opportunity for Starbucks as the business looks to be on stable footing following the pandemic disruption.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":122,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":184481138872424,"gmtCreate":1686063972863,"gmtModify":1686066153680,"author":{"id":"3566685176533037","authorId":"3566685176533037","name":"T2021121051","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/68483da3f8c18f83dbd91b63077ae236","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3566685176533037","authorIdStr":"3566685176533037"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go woke go broke ","listText":"Go woke go broke ","text":"Go woke go broke","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":10,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/184481138872424","repostId":"2341041002","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":122,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":222183155126368,"gmtCreate":1695271228289,"gmtModify":1695271283038,"author":{"id":"3566685176533037","authorId":"3566685176533037","name":"T2021121051","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/68483da3f8c18f83dbd91b63077ae236","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3566685176533037","authorIdStr":"3566685176533037"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Only a left wing fans will use their money to support Disney ","listText":"Only a left wing fans will use their money to support Disney ","text":"Only a left wing fans will use their money to support Disney","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/222183155126368","repostId":"2368818711","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2368818711","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1695254403,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2368818711?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-09-21 08:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Got $1,000? 2 Stocks to Buy Now While They're on Sale.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2368818711","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Two standout stocks are flying under the radar, ready for a rebound.

Everything you thought you knew about the stock market suddenly looks obsolete.</p><p>But some things never change. The best way to make money in stock investments is by finding great companies whose stocks are undervalued. Buy low and sell high (or hold forever, watching your wealth build over time). And it's easy to find incredible stocks at a deep discount right now.</p><p>Read on to see how media giant <strong>Walt Disney</strong> and freelance services specialist <strong>Fiverr International</strong> fit the bill. If you have $1,000 of investable cash to spare, these two stocks look like great long-term investments today. Diversify with both, or champion just one -- either way, Fiverr and Disney are priced to please.</p><h2 id=\"id_2736112815\">The House of Mouse never looked so affordable</h2><p>I'll be the first to admit that Walt Disney is facing some serious challenges.</p><ul style=\"\"><li><p>Aging media outlets such as the ABC broadcast network and the ESPN sports channel aren't the cash cows they used to be, and Disney is reportedly seeking buyers for some of these assets. Rumor has it that the company has discussed both complete and partial sales, though no firm deals are on the table yet.</p></li><li><p>The TV issues stretch all the way to India. The market-leading Star network doesn't look so dominant anymore after losing the broadcast rights to Indian Premier League cricket.</p></li><li><p>The loss of cricket rights also undermined the Disney+ Hotstar streaming service. In the recently reported fiscal third quarter, 12.5 million Hotstar customers signed off, largely due to the lack of professional cricket. As a result, the total number of video-streaming clients fell by 11.7 million names, or 5%.</p></li></ul><p>So I understand if some investors are feeling queasy about Disney's future prospects. The TV business is crumbling and the digital streaming alternative hasn't picked up the slack. Put that Disney share down and back away slowly!</p><p>Many Disney investors have done exactly that. The stock is trading 58% below the all-time high of early 2021. The price also sits just 6% above a multiyear low of $79.75. That low-water mark is only a week old.</p><p>And that brutal price drop went more than a few steps too far. Disney's stock is dramatically undervalued nowadays.</p><p>First, I wouldn't mind Disney modernizing its portfolio of products and services. Linear TV subscribers (cable, satellite, broadcast) are going all-digital at an alarming rate and the cord-cutting trend isn't going away. Finding buyers for legacy services like ESPN and ABC would accelerate Disney's quantum leap into cyberspace.</p><p>Second, it's no fun to lose more than 10 million streaming subscribers in one of the world's largest economies. However, Disney+ Hotstar is also the company's least lucrative streaming platform. Domestic Disney+ subscribers pay an average subscription fee of $7.31 per month. The average monthly fee for the Hotstar version is $0.59. If you have to lose lots of subscribers somewhere, this particular market doesn't hurt too much.</p><p>And other streaming services are holding their own with flat or rising subscriber counts in the third quarter. And don't forget about the Disney parks, experiences, and products division, whose third-quarter sales increased by 13% year over year. Ticket sales are booming at the international parks and cruise ships.</p><p>Disney's stock is trading within a stone's throw of price levels last seen in the fall of 2014. Over the same time span, trailing revenue is up by 80% and the company's central strategy is evolving as we speak. CEO Bob Iger had to patch a plethora of mistakes made during ex-CEO Bob Chapek's reign, and these things take time.</p><p>So I recommend buying Disney stock hand over fist while the low share prices last. You won't find Mickey Mouse in Wall Street's bargain bin very often.</p><h2 id=\"id_3607121804\">Fiverr: More than meets the eye</h2><p>Freelance services wrangler Fiverr is perhaps the most misunderstood company I know. First, Fiverr bears expected the business to wither at the end of coronavirus lockdowns. Then, they expected generative AI tools to make human freelancers in creative endeavors obsolete. The first end-of-the-world prediction was demonstrably wrong, and I think Fiverr will benefit from generative AI systems in the long run.</p><p>It's true that Fiverr's top-line growth has slowed down in recent quarters. That's a really common story, though. Let's have a look at Fiverr's revenue growth over the last three years, in comparison with two closely related businesses:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e8eda5c74119569488f37c573dfb82f2\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"387\"/></p><p>FVRR Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts</p><p>Advertising expert <strong>PubMatic </strong>and online game platform provider <strong>Roblox</strong> cross paths with Fiverr quite often. Thousands of freelancers are ready to provide digital art, solve programming issues, or even design entire Roblox games for a reasonable fee. Likewise, targeted ad campaigns and the digital assets that make them work are widely available on the Fiverr market. So it makes sense that these three companies showed similar top-line responses to the global inflation crisis. An economic crunch is not the best time to invest big money in ambitious ad campaigns or launch potentially moneymaking games -- there's not enough end-market interest to make it work.</p><p>The inflation-based downturn won't last forever, though. Purse strings will loosen when the inflation monster is put to bed, letting companies like Fiverr get back to high-octane revenue growth. And don't forget that this company already generates generous cash profits. Fiverr's free cash flow added up to $46 million over the last four quarters, which is a generous 13.5% of total sales over the same span. These cash profits should soar in a more normal business environment.</p><p>As for the generative AI threat, let me just point out that creative AI processes still require a lot of human input. Sure, ChatGPT is capable of writing some decent text and DALL-E 2 can generate stunning images -- but only with the right input prompts and a human selecting the best bits from the AI-generated output. That's still a game-changing dose of human influence.</p><p>Thus, Fiverr provides a vibrant marketplace for freelancing AI experts. The company takes this opportunity seriously, and I expect AI-managing services to contribute significant sales in the long run.</p><p>Yet, Fiverr's stock price has fallen more than 90% from the lofty peak of early 2021. Thanks to the perceived AI challenge, the plunge includes a 24% price drop over the last year.</p><p>So we are looking at a perfectly healthy business with tremendous long-term growth prospects, just champing at the bit until the economy can drive rising interest in its digital freelancer services. Meanwhile, Fiverr's stock trades at just 12.6 times forward earnings projections and 3 times trailing sales. It's a high-growth wolf in fire-sale sheep's clothing.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Got $1,000? 2 Stocks to Buy Now While They're on Sale.</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nGot $1,000? 2 Stocks to Buy Now While They're on Sale.\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-09-21 08:00 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/09/19/got-1000-2-stocks-to-buy-now-while-theyre-on-sale/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The last two years have been turbulent on Wall Street.

Rumor has it that the company has discussed both complete and partial sales, though no firm deals are on the table yet.The TV issues stretch all the way to India. The market-leading Star network doesn't look so dominant anymore after losing the broadcast rights to Indian Premier League cricket.The loss of cricket rights also undermined the Disney+ Hotstar streaming service. In the recently reported fiscal third quarter, 12.5 million Hotstar customers signed off, largely due to the lack of professional cricket. As a result, the total number of video-streaming clients fell by 11.7 million names, or 5%.So I understand if some investors are feeling queasy about Disney's future prospects. The TV business is crumbling and the digital streaming alternative hasn't picked up the slack. Put that Disney share down and back away slowly!Many Disney investors have done exactly that. The stock is trading 58% below the all-time high of early 2021. The price also sits just 6% above a multiyear low of $79.75. That low-water mark is only a week old.And that brutal price drop went more than a few steps too far. Disney's stock is dramatically undervalued nowadays.First, I wouldn't mind Disney modernizing its portfolio of products and services. Linear TV subscribers (cable, satellite, broadcast) are going all-digital at an alarming rate and the cord-cutting trend isn't going away. Finding buyers for legacy services like ESPN and ABC would accelerate Disney's quantum leap into cyberspace.Second, it's no fun to lose more than 10 million streaming subscribers in one of the world's largest economies. However, Disney+ Hotstar is also the company's least lucrative streaming platform. Domestic Disney+ subscribers pay an average subscription fee of $7.31 per month. The average monthly fee for the Hotstar version is $0.59. If you have to lose lots of subscribers somewhere, this particular market doesn't hurt too much.And other streaming services are holding their own with flat or rising subscriber counts in the third quarter. And don't forget about the Disney parks, experiences, and products division, whose third-quarter sales increased by 13% year over year. Ticket sales are booming at the international parks and cruise ships.Disney's stock is trading within a stone's throw of price levels last seen in the fall of 2014. Over the same time span, trailing revenue is up by 80% and the company's central strategy is evolving as we speak. CEO Bob Iger had to patch a plethora of mistakes made during ex-CEO Bob Chapek's reign, and these things take time.So I recommend buying Disney stock hand over fist while the low share prices last. You won't find Mickey Mouse in Wall Street's bargain bin very often.Fiverr: More than meets the eyeFreelance services wrangler Fiverr is perhaps the most misunderstood company I know. First, Fiverr bears expected the business to wither at the end of coronavirus lockdowns. Then, they expected generative AI tools to make human freelancers in creative endeavors obsolete. The first end-of-the-world prediction was demonstrably wrong, and I think Fiverr will benefit from generative AI systems in the long run.It's true that Fiverr's top-line growth has slowed down in recent quarters. That's a really common story, though. Let's have a look at Fiverr's revenue growth over the last three years, in comparison with two closely related businesses:FVRR Revenue (TTM) data by YChartsAdvertising expert PubMatic and online game platform provider Roblox cross paths with Fiverr quite often. Thousands of freelancers are ready to provide digital art, solve programming issues, or even design entire Roblox games for a reasonable fee. Likewise, targeted ad campaigns and the digital assets that make them work are widely available on the Fiverr market. So it makes sense that these three companies showed similar top-line responses to the global inflation crisis. An economic crunch is not the best time to invest big money in ambitious ad campaigns or launch potentially moneymaking games -- there's not enough end-market interest to make it work.The inflation-based downturn won't last forever, though. Purse strings will loosen when the inflation monster is put to bed, letting companies like Fiverr get back to high-octane revenue growth. And don't forget that this company already generates generous cash profits. Fiverr's free cash flow added up to $46 million over the last four quarters, which is a generous 13.5% of total sales over the same span. These cash profits should soar in a more normal business environment.As for the generative AI threat, let me just point out that creative AI processes still require a lot of human input. Sure, ChatGPT is capable of writing some decent text and DALL-E 2 can generate stunning images -- but only with the right input prompts and a human selecting the best bits from the AI-generated output. That's still a game-changing dose of human influence.Thus, Fiverr provides a vibrant marketplace for freelancing AI experts. The company takes this opportunity seriously, and I expect AI-managing services to contribute significant sales in the long run.Yet, Fiverr's stock price has fallen more than 90% from the lofty peak of early 2021. Thanks to the perceived AI challenge, the plunge includes a 24% price drop over the last year.So we are looking at a perfectly healthy business with tremendous long-term growth prospects, just champing at the bit until the economy can drive rising interest in its digital freelancer services. Meanwhile, Fiverr's stock trades at just 12.6 times forward earnings projections and 3 times trailing sales. It's a high-growth wolf in fire-sale sheep's clothing.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":202,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
