who want to bet on the return of Americans traveling abroad after a coronavirus-driven halt can do so without buying airline stocks, CNBC’s Jim Cramersaid Wednesday.\nInstead, Cramer pointed them in the direction of a financial services firm he called a “coiled spring,” even as the company’s shares trade near all-time highs.\nAmerican Expressis doing “incredibly well just with domestic, including small- and medium-sized business. Can you imagine when you get international? That’s the stock to own. You buy it now,” anticipating more overseas travel in the coming months, Cramer said on“Squawk on the Street.”\n“I do believe that that is the stock to buy if you believe Europe is going to come back,” the“Mad Money”host added.\nLast month, the European Unionmade it easier for Americans to travel to its 27 member countries by adding the U.S. to itssafe travel list. Previously, nonessential travel had been restricted due to the coronavirus pandemic.\nMajor airlines havebeen working to add back lucrative trans-Atlantic routes, hoping to capture the pent-up demand from U.S. residents hankering for a vacation abroad.\nIt is also good for American Express. While travel is important for American Express in general, cross-boarder payments have higher margins than domestic ones.\nIn its first-quarter earnings report, released in April, American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said the company was seeing positive signs around domestic travel, “increasing our confidence” that the recovery will continue.\nHowever, Squeri said at the time, “Card member spending, excluding travel and entertainment categories, was 11 percent higher on an FX-adjusted basis than it was in the first quarter of 2019, and continues to represent the majority of spend on our network.”\nAmerican Express is set to release second-quarter results July 23, which may offer more insight into recent travel spending trends.\nShares of American Express are up around 43% year to date and more than 80% in the past 12 months.

In the near term, it’s hard to argue that any of the news on the delta variant gets any better,” said Jeffrey Kleintop, chief global investment strategist at Charles Schwab.\nAmid that uncertainty, there appears to be a growing appetite for more defensive plays. Bank of America said in a note on Thursday that fund flows from private clients have shown build-ups in defensive positions over the past four weeks, with utilities being the most popular.\nThat environment could be good news for investors in health care, a traditionally defensive sector that some Wall Street pros have turned bullish on in recent weeks.\nHealth care enters a growth phase\nBecause the companies were hit so hard during the pandemic, which forced hospitals across the country to suspend many non-Covid procedures and care, health care is in a sweet spot as a defensive play with strong year-over-year growth, said Alicia Levine, head of equities at BNY Mellon Wealth Management.\n“They terribly underperformed very early cycle, as one would expect, and of course the actual facts on the ground that people stopped going to the doctor and stopped doing unnecessary procedures during the pandemic, all of that will come back,” Levine said. “So in a sense, health care is in a growth phase now and also the sector will do well in this kind of mid-cycle phase.”\nThe spread of the delta variant of Covid-19 is a growing concern for the broader market, but Kleintop said that health stocks should be able to better withstand another wave of Covid in the U.S. as the medical system should be able to operate more normally than last year.\n“The idea that hospitals would be overwhelmed seems like a low probability, given the effectiveness of the vaccine, particularly with regard to severe cases, and the fact that hospitals are better prepared for this,” Kleintop said.\nAttractive prices\nThe health care sector is currently trading near record highs, but the stocks have mostly trailed the broader market this year. TheS&P 500has gained 16% year to date, while theHealth Care Select Sector SPDR Fundhas climbed about 13%.\n\nThat underperformance, combined with a weak year for the sector in 2020, means that health care stocks are attracting the attention of some value investors.\nEli Salzmann, manager of the highly ratedNeuberger Berman Large Cap Value Fund,said he has added pharmaceutical positions in recent months.Johnson & JohnsonandPfizerare top-10 holdings for the fund.\n“If you look at some of the larger pharmaceutical companies, they certainly are inexpensive and they are certainly within the value spectrum,” Salzmann said.\nMeanwhile, BTIG’s Julian Emanuel included several health care stocks in his top picks for the second half of 2021. The strategist said in a note this week that he is bullish on medical device stocksBoston ScientificandThermo Fisher.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":424,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":146833368,"gmtCreate":1626064636854,"gmtModify":1703752655047,"author":{"id":"4087969217298310","authorId":"4087969217298310","name":"SamYLynn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2581a5661edccdf8baba42d6c0fe2d18","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087969217298310","authorIdStr":"4087969217298310"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok&nbsp;","listText":"Ok&nbsp;","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/146833368","repostId":"1121762629","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1121762629","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626057041,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1121762629?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-12 10:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Red-Hot Stocks That Could Continue to Crush the Market","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1121762629","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These growth and dividend stocks are thriving.\n\nEconomic recovery concerns and inflation worries hav","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>These growth and dividend stocks are thriving.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Economic recovery concerns and inflation worries have been no match for a smoking-hot stock market.

But the company's stock performance has left investors smelling like a rose. Waste Management stock is up over 20% so far this year and just blasted to a new all-time high last week.</p>\n<p>While trash and recycling are a steady business model that tends to perform in good times and bad, Waste Management generates a substantial amount of revenue from its industrial and commercial clients. As business slowed during the pandemic, these businesses naturally produced less waste, which presented a challenge. The company responded by implementing cost-cutting measures, many of whichit expects will be permanent.</p>\n<p>These strategic decisions along with its resilient and diversified customer base across a slew of different industries helped it generate plenty of free cash flow (FCF) and net incometo support its dividend. The company just raised its dividend for the 18th consecutive year andinstituted a new share buyback program. All told, the company plans to distribute nearly $1 billion in dividends and buy back up to $1.35 billion in stock this year.</p>\n<p>Waste Management has the potential to combine its stable andrecession resilientbusiness model with the upside of environmentally conscious consumers who are increasingly interested in limiting waste output. During a recent talk at WasteExpo 2021, CEO Jim Fish highlighted the role Waste Management could play in managing and providing the waste necessary for companies to produce plastics and chemicals from sustainably sourced materials. Converting this proposition to profit remains uncertain. But it's a nice long-term trend that's worth following.</p>\n<p><b>Hitch a ride with this EV superstar</b></p>\n<p><b>Scott Levine(NIO):</b>NIO sputtered along during the first five months of 2021, falling nearly 21%, but the company's stock has taken a U-turn over the past few weeks and is charging higher. In fact, shares of NIO soared nearly 38% inJune&nbsp;while the<b>S&amp;P 500</b>crept more than 2% higher. And there's plenty of reason to believe that this EV manufacturer can continue racing ahead in the days to come.</p>\n<p>Inthe first quarter of 2021, NIO reported strong growth in the number of deliveries. Achieving a company quarterly record, NIO delivered 20,060 vehicles in the first quarter of the new year, representing year-over-year growth of 490%. But the record was short-lived. Last week, NIO announced that it delivered 21,896 vehicles, a year-over-year increase of 112%, in the second quarter, representing a new quarterly high-water mark.</p>\n<p>Looking beyond the second quarter, investors will find that the company is working at expanding its charging infrastructure in China through 2021 -- a move that will help assuage the fears of potential customers who are worried about the convenience of charging their vehicles. As of the end of the first quarter, NIO had 206 battery swap stations, yet management forecasts expanding this to over 700 stations by the end of the year. In addition, the company, which had 146 charging stations in its network at the end of March, plans on growing this out to 600 charging stations by year-end.</p>\n<p>Besides its efforts to grow its presence in China, NIO aspires to gain a foothold in Europe as well. Last month, the company announced it received approval for the production of its SUV, NIO ES8, including approval for the associated license registrations of the vehicle. The company plans to deliver the first vehicles to Norway, which will be NIO's first overseas market, in September.</p>\n<p>Providing customers in China with a variety of solutions for keeping their vehicles charged, NIO is aggressively addressing the range anxiety that plagues potential EV owners. It plans on bringing a similar suite of solutions to Europe when it begins deliveries of the vehicles -- something that is distinguishing it from its peers and which should help the company continue on the road to future growth.</p>","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>3 Red-Hot Stocks That Could Continue to Crush the Market</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\">\n3 Red-Hot Stocks That Could Continue to Crush the Market\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-12 10:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/07/11/3-red-hot-stocks-that-could-continue-to-crush-the/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>These growth and dividend stocks are thriving.\n\nEconomic recovery concerns and inflation worries have been no match for a smoking-hot stock market.

Waste Management stock is up over 20% so far this year and just blasted to a new all-time high last week.\nWhile trash and recycling are a steady business model that tends to perform in good times and bad, Waste Management generates a substantial amount of revenue from its industrial and commercial clients. As business slowed during the pandemic, these businesses naturally produced less waste, which presented a challenge. The company responded by implementing cost-cutting measures, many of whichit expects will be permanent.\nThese strategic decisions along with its resilient and diversified customer base across a slew of different industries helped it generate plenty of free cash flow (FCF) and net incometo support its dividend. The company just raised its dividend for the 18th consecutive year andinstituted a new share buyback program. All told, the company plans to distribute nearly $1 billion in dividends and buy back up to $1.35 billion in stock this year.\nWaste Management has the potential to combine its stable andrecession resilientbusiness model with the upside of environmentally conscious consumers who are increasingly interested in limiting waste output. During a recent talk at WasteExpo 2021, CEO Jim Fish highlighted the role Waste Management could play in managing and providing the waste necessary for companies to produce plastics and chemicals from sustainably sourced materials. Converting this proposition to profit remains uncertain. But it's a nice long-term trend that's worth following.\nHitch a ride with this EV superstar\nScott Levine(NIO):NIO sputtered along during the first five months of 2021, falling nearly 21%, but the company's stock has taken a U-turn over the past few weeks and is charging higher. In fact, shares of NIO soared nearly 38% inJune while theS&P 500crept more than 2% higher. And there's plenty of reason to believe that this EV manufacturer can continue racing ahead in the days to come.\nInthe first quarter of 2021, NIO reported strong growth in the number of deliveries. Achieving a company quarterly record, NIO delivered 20,060 vehicles in the first quarter of the new year, representing year-over-year growth of 490%. But the record was short-lived. Last week, NIO announced that it delivered 21,896 vehicles, a year-over-year increase of 112%, in the second quarter, representing a new quarterly high-water mark.\nLooking beyond the second quarter, investors will find that the company is working at expanding its charging infrastructure in China through 2021 -- a move that will help assuage the fears of potential customers who are worried about the convenience of charging their vehicles. As of the end of the first quarter, NIO had 206 battery swap stations, yet management forecasts expanding this to over 700 stations by the end of the year. In addition, the company, which had 146 charging stations in its network at the end of March, plans on growing this out to 600 charging stations by year-end.\nBesides its efforts to grow its presence in China, NIO aspires to gain a foothold in Europe as well. Last month, the company announced it received approval for the production of its SUV, NIO ES8, including approval for the associated license registrations of the vehicle. The company plans to deliver the first vehicles to Norway, which will be NIO's first overseas market, in September.\nProviding customers in China with a variety of solutions for keeping their vehicles charged, NIO is aggressively addressing the range anxiety that plagues potential EV owners. It plans on bringing a similar suite of solutions to Europe when it begins deliveries of the vehicles -- something that is distinguishing it from its peers and which should help the company continue on the road to future growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":463,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":146839663,"gmtCreate":1626064594752,"gmtModify":1703752654063,"author":{"id":"4087969217298310","authorId":"4087969217298310","name":"SamYLynn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2581a5661edccdf8baba42d6c0fe2d18","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087969217298310","authorIdStr":"4087969217298310"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ohh&nbsp;","listText":"Ohh&nbsp;","text":"Ohh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/146839663","repostId":"1114863871","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1114863871","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626039626,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1114863871?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-12 05:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Chase, Delta, Goldman Sachs, PepsiCo, and Other Stocks to Watch This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1114863871","media":"Barron's","summary":"Second-quarter earnings season gets under way this week, with several big banks reporting.

Latest data reveals that short interest in Palantir declined by 23.8% in the latest cycle alone. This suggests that a broad swath of market participants isn't buying into the bearish narratives surrounding the company, perceive its stock to be fairly valued and perhaps even anticipate it to rally going forward. This development should come across as an encouraging sign for the company's long-side investors. Let's take a closer look at it all.</p>\n<p><b>The Data</b></p>\n<p>I'd like to start by explaining the term \"short interest\" for the uninitiated. It's essentially the total number of short positions that are open against any given stock. A sharp rise in the metric indicates that traders grew bearish on the concerned company, and actively initiated short positions against it. Conversely, a sharp decline in the metric indicates that traders actively wound up their short positions either perhaps because they anticipate the stock to bottom out and/or rally going forward. So, the short interest is a useful tool to gauge the Street's ever-evolving market sentiment.</p>\n<p>In Palantir's case, its short interest at the end of the latest data cycle stood at 52.3 million, sharply down by 23.8% on a sequential basis. Although Palantir's short interest figure isn't at its all-time low yet, the pace of its recent decline, however, is certainly one of the fastest in the company's brief history since its direct listing last year. For the record, Palantir has over 1.8 billion shares outstanding which means that about 2.8% of its entire share total had been shorted. Also, the short interest data is for the cycle spanning from early June to mid-June, and the data wasreleasedon Thursday.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/95e4623fda1d9079a2699b57d4ee0f42\" tg-width=\"637\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Next, I wanted to confirm if other software application companies also registered a sharp reduction in their short interest figures, or was Palantir an anomaly in its peer group. So, to get a broader perspective on its industry, I pulled the short interest figures for about 100 software application stocks listed in the US. Interestingly, 55% of these stocks registered a net reduction in their short interest figures, of varying magnitudes of course, which points to an industry-wide short unwinding.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/091feec9aa17f821d01f34a7b46bb2bb\" tg-width=\"610\" tg-height=\"506\"><span>(Source: BusinessQuant.com, Wsj.com)</span></p>\n<p>Moreover, the median short interest decline was 1.9%, whereas Palantir's short interest declined by a far more significant 23.8% during the same data cycle. In fact, there were just 6 other stocks in our study group, which saw their short interest decline in excess of 23.8%. This conclusively shows that market participants were far too active with unwinding their short positions in Palantir.</p>\n<p>But this leads us to an important question - why are market participants so cautious with shorting Palantir in the first place?</p>\n<p><b>Cautious for Good Reason</b></p>\n<p>As I've explained in my prior articles, Palantir has several initiatives at play which could collectively catapult its growth in 2021-22. These initiatives include itstransitionto a customer-friendly payment model to boost commercial sales, offeringfree trialsto major companies to expand its sales funnel and expanding itssales teamto revamp its outbound marketing function. We won't be discussing the same points again to avoid being repetitive, but the takeaway here is that since Palantir is undertaking several growth initiatives, it makes for a risky short bet for the time being at least.</p>\n<p>But don't take my word for it.</p>\n<p>The community of professional analysts is realizing Palantir's growth potential and raising their revenue estimates for its current fiscal year. They've raised their FY21 revenue estimates by about 5% so far since mid-January and there's no telling how many of such upward revenue revisions are still in store for the remainder of Palantir's FY21. This bullish uncertainty presents an unfavorable risk-reward ratio for short-side market participants and explains why short interest in Palantir continues to decline.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/74bccdf90ceb880c1a3edddad8743a1e\" tg-width=\"636\" tg-height=\"419\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>There's another point to consider here, that nobody seems to be talking about. Palantir has won several COVID-19 tracking-related contracts (such ashere,here,here,hereandhere) over the last 12 - 15 months as government agencies across the globe grappled to control the spread and tried to better manage their resources. With COVID-19 said to be making a fierce comeback with thedelta variant, I contend that Palantir could experience a similar order windfall this year, from proactive government agencies, which could boost the company's government sales along the way.</p>\n<p>Lastly, several commenters argue that Palantir's shares are trading at a premium and are due for a sharp correction. Its shares are trading at about 34-times trailing twelve-month sales so it's understandable why many might think that the stock is overvalued. But I believe the problem with this approach is that we're not factoring in industry-wide trading multiples or Palantir's revenue growth rate, compared to its peers.</p>\n<p>So, to put things in perspective, I compiled the revenue growth rates and price-to-sales (or P/S) multiples for over 320 software infrastructure and software application stocks that are currently listed on US exchanges. Next, I benchmarked these industry groups based on Palantir's revenue growth rate and its P/S multiple. As it turns out, over 90% of Palantir's peers have a slower revenue growth and/or are trading at higher trading multiples. This suggests that Palantir's higher pace of growth justifies its price premium and that the bearish concerns regarding its valuations, are exaggerated.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb171f61438817b747d6a50fff8133\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"414\"><span>(Source: Business Quant.com)</span></p>\n<p><b>Final Thoughts</b></p>\n<p>I'd like to point to readers that fluctuations in short interest figures don't always impact the underlying stock prices. This data is based on short positions that were open at a prior cut-off date and investors with a long-term time horizon should, at best, use it to corroborate their bull or bear thesis.</p>\n<p>Having said that, if the bearish narratives surrounding Palantir held any merit, or posed a legitimate risk to its share price, a broad swath of market participants would've actively shorted the stock to profit off of this near-certain eventuality.

Latest data reveals that short interest in Palantir declined by 23.8% in the latest cycle alone. This suggests that a broad swath of market participants isn't buying into the bearish narratives surrounding the company, perceive its stock to be fairly valued and perhaps even anticipate it to rally going forward. This development should come across as an encouraging sign for the company's long-side investors. Let's take a closer look at it all.\nThe Data\nI'd like to start by explaining the term \"short interest\" for the uninitiated. It's essentially the total number of short positions that are open against any given stock. A sharp rise in the metric indicates that traders grew bearish on the concerned company, and actively initiated short positions against it. Conversely, a sharp decline in the metric indicates that traders actively wound up their short positions either perhaps because they anticipate the stock to bottom out and/or rally going forward. So, the short interest is a useful tool to gauge the Street's ever-evolving market sentiment.\nIn Palantir's case, its short interest at the end of the latest data cycle stood at 52.3 million, sharply down by 23.8% on a sequential basis. Although Palantir's short interest figure isn't at its all-time low yet, the pace of its recent decline, however, is certainly one of the fastest in the company's brief history since its direct listing last year. For the record, Palantir has over 1.8 billion shares outstanding which means that about 2.8% of its entire share total had been shorted. Also, the short interest data is for the cycle spanning from early June to mid-June, and the data wasreleasedon Thursday.\n\nNext, I wanted to confirm if other software application companies also registered a sharp reduction in their short interest figures, or was Palantir an anomaly in its peer group. So, to get a broader perspective on its industry, I pulled the short interest figures for about 100 software application stocks listed in the US. Interestingly, 55% of these stocks registered a net reduction in their short interest figures, of varying magnitudes of course, which points to an industry-wide short unwinding.\n(Source: BusinessQuant.com, Wsj.com)\nMoreover, the median short interest decline was 1.9%, whereas Palantir's short interest declined by a far more significant 23.8% during the same data cycle. In fact, there were just 6 other stocks in our study group, which saw their short interest decline in excess of 23.8%. This conclusively shows that market participants were far too active with unwinding their short positions in Palantir.\nBut this leads us to an important question - why are market participants so cautious with shorting Palantir in the first place?\nCautious for Good Reason\nAs I've explained in my prior articles, Palantir has several initiatives at play which could collectively catapult its growth in 2021-22. These initiatives include itstransitionto a customer-friendly payment model to boost commercial sales, offeringfree trialsto major companies to expand its sales funnel and expanding itssales teamto revamp its outbound marketing function. We won't be discussing the same points again to avoid being repetitive, but the takeaway here is that since Palantir is undertaking several growth initiatives, it makes for a risky short bet for the time being at least.\nBut don't take my word for it.\nThe community of professional analysts is realizing Palantir's growth potential and raising their revenue estimates for its current fiscal year. They've raised their FY21 revenue estimates by about 5% so far since mid-January and there's no telling how many of such upward revenue revisions are still in store for the remainder of Palantir's FY21. This bullish uncertainty presents an unfavorable risk-reward ratio for short-side market participants and explains why short interest in Palantir continues to decline.\n\nThere's another point to consider here, that nobody seems to be talking about. Palantir has won several COVID-19 tracking-related contracts (such ashere,here,here,hereandhere) over the last 12 - 15 months as government agencies across the globe grappled to control the spread and tried to better manage their resources. With COVID-19 said to be making a fierce comeback with thedelta variant, I contend that Palantir could experience a similar order windfall this year, from proactive government agencies, which could boost the company's government sales along the way.\nLastly, several commenters argue that Palantir's shares are trading at a premium and are due for a sharp correction. Its shares are trading at about 34-times trailing twelve-month sales so it's understandable why many might think that the stock is overvalued. But I believe the problem with this approach is that we're not factoring in industry-wide trading multiples or Palantir's revenue growth rate, compared to its peers.\nSo, to put things in perspective, I compiled the revenue growth rates and price-to-sales (or P/S) multiples for over 320 software infrastructure and software application stocks that are currently listed on US exchanges. Next, I benchmarked these industry groups based on Palantir's revenue growth rate and its P/S multiple. As it turns out, over 90% of Palantir's peers have a slower revenue growth and/or are trading at higher trading multiples. This suggests that Palantir's higher pace of growth justifies its price premium and that the bearish concerns regarding its valuations, are exaggerated.\n(Source: Business Quant.com)\nFinal Thoughts\nI'd like to point to readers that fluctuations in short interest figures don't always impact the underlying stock prices. This data is based on short positions that were open at a prior cut-off date and investors with a long-term time horizon should, at best, use it to corroborate their bull or bear thesis.\nHaving said that, if the bearish narratives surrounding Palantir held any merit, or posed a legitimate risk to its share price, a broad swath of market participants would've actively shorted the stock to profit off of this near-certain eventuality. But that didn't happen and its short interest declined instead, that too by a significant amount.\nThis active short unwinding indicates that market participants are uncomfortable in shorting the stock at current levels. This should come across as a reassuring sign for the company's long-side shareholders. The stock seems to be fairly valued and has the potential to rally further.

They will do this by growing their core business, especially within the U.S. where they currently trail in market share, and by shifting their business model to focus more heavily on collecting merchant revenues, which are far more profitable than the agency revenues that make up most of their current sales figure.</p>\n<p><b>Growth Strategies emerging from pandemic</b></p>\n<p>Booking Holdings is aiming at growth strategies through two main avenues; expanding and solidifying a uniform payment platform, and capturing more U.S. market share. Both of their growth strategies are centered around their move towards an increasingly merchant focused business model.</p>\n<p>Integrating a uniform payment platform can help Booking power the frictionless global marketplace that they seek to create. Booking is trying to alleviate the problem of foreign exchange complications and users not being able to pay how they want for travel. The current payment platform is catching on, but slowly. Only 22% of gross bookings in 2020 were processed on Booking's integrated platform. However, this is up from 15% in 2019, and the figure is expected to grow in the coming years. Implementing this platform will enable merchandising capabilities that Booking hasn't had access to historically. Most importantly, it is foundational for the \"connected trip\" strategy; a seamless offering of multiple elements of travel, and Booking's long-term strategic goal.</p>\n<p>Capturing a greater share of the U.S. market is an imperative growth strategy for Booking for numerous reasons. Firstly, Booking trails competitors Expedia and Airbnb in terms of U.S. market share. While the U.S. hotel market is not quite as profitable for travel fare aggregators like Booking and Expedia when compared to the European market, mainly due to the dominance of hotel chains in the U.S., the potential for Booking to tap into the U.S. alternative accommodation market is promising. And this is what leadership is trying to do. In order to penetrate the market Booking will focus on product improvements, raising consumer awareness of this type of inventory, and supply acquisition. They are planning to work with professional property management partners to grow and acquire a supply of single-home properties. Additionally, as a result of the covid-19 pandemic and associated regulations there has been a shift in favor of domestic travel and alternative accommodations, a signal for Booking to enter into the U.S. space where they currently lack market share. To paint a picture of the growth potential; 41% of Airbnb's revenue comes from its U.S. segment. That 41% is larger than the entire European market where Booking currently has a strong foothold. This implies thatBooking has an opportunity to double their alternative accommodation businessby penetrating into the U.S.</p>\n<p>The growing trend of homeowners leasing out their unused living spaces is staggering, and it is what pumps Airbnb's valuation up so high to its current Enterprise Value of $114B. Even though Booking records 3x Airbnb's pre-pandemic revenues, their Enterprise Value is 15% less. Many indicators point to Airbnb being overvalued, but one thing is clear; the market for alternative accommodations is growing at immense rates worldwide, and Booking is well poised to dig their teeth into a large chunk of that market share.</p>\n<p><b>Shift from Agency to Merchant Revenues</b></p>\n<p>The most exciting thing on Booking's horizon, however, is their focus on becoming more profitable by shifting revenues to weigh more heavily on the merchant segment. Booking has scaled up to be the world leader in market share, and now they are prepared to capitalize on their huge size and reach. Below, I will break down the differences between the two significant revenue items that Booking recognizes, Agency Revenues and Merchant Revenues. Figure 3 shows 2019 revenue breakdown.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><p>Agency Revenues make up the bulk of Booking's total revenue figure. These revenues are derived from transactions in which Booking does not facilitate payments for services, and consist almost entirely of travel reservation commissions invoiced to service providers after travel is completed. This type of revenue model is what helped Booking scale up to attain the market share they have today. However, since they don't facilitate the payments, they are limited on fees and other benefits like increased float.</p></li>\n <li><p>Merchant Revenues make up the second largest chunk of Booking's total revenue figure, but are growing at a faster rate. These revenues are derived from transactions in which Booking facilitates the payment of services, generally at the time of booking. From a cash flow perspective, since Booking gets money upfront and doesn't relinquish it to the service provider until the time of stay, they are able to hold onto this cash for months, mostly for free, and can use it to invest and grow the business. These revenues are also more lucrative because Booking charges fees on top of already higher commissions.</p></li>\n <li><p>Advertising &amp; Other Revenues make up the smallest portion of Booking's total revenue figure. These revenues are largely derived from referrals, subscription fees, and advertising placements.</p></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Under CEO Glenn Fogel's leadership, Booking Holdings istaking strides to grow their merchant revenues at rapid rates. The merchant business model is far more lucrative for Booking on a commission basis, and it also improves their cash flows, allowing them to invest more heavily into future projects. The agency model is great for cheap growth; it is what helped Booking reach the dominant market position that it has today. But the time to capitalize on their massive scale has come, as leadership takes them in a more value-productive direction. Increasing merchant revenues will make them more profitable, improving their already above-average EBITDA margin. Figure 4 shows Booking's growing focus on merchant revenues since Glenn Fogel became CEO in 2017.</p>\n<p>Keep in mind, Booking's largest competitor, Expedia, has a closer split between Agency and Merchant revenues than they do. Despite this, Expedia only has an average 15% EBITDA margin across the last twelve years, compared to Booking's 37%, which will only go up as Booking narrows the field between Agency and Merchant revenues (industry benchmark is 30%). This demonstrates how much more efficient Booking is at turning sales into profits, and highlights the fact that they consistently outperform their competitors in doing so. Moving forward, they will only widen this gap.</p>\n<p><b>There</b>&nbsp;<b><i>are</i></b>&nbsp;<b>Risks</b></p>\n<p>Reliance on an industry bounce back is one. Booking has a heavy reliance on the overall travel industry getting back on its feet as soon as possible. If government regulations and social distancing sentiments continue to stifle the travel industry at large, it will take Booking longer to return to their pre-pandemic scale.</p>\n<p>Competitors are another. Booking faces competition from all angles. Expedia is their main direct competitor, and currently holds a majority U.S. market share. If Booking fails to expand more prominently into the U.S. and stagnates growth in other global markets, their overall industry market share dominance could be threatened. Airbnb is spearheading the rise of alternative accommodations, a market that Booking is also competing in. Google could continue its dive into successful reservation meta-search applications such as Google Flights. Their continued expansion into the space could take significant market share away from Booking. Lastly, many hotel chains, especially in the U.S., are developing and facilitating their own direct channels for travelers. If they can create enough consumer awareness and drive enough traffic to their own flagship sites, there would be no need for a majority of Bookings services.</p>\n<p>COVID-19 Effects on Finances cannot be omitted. The adverse impacts of the covid-19 pandemic could distress liquidity, credit rating, and foreign exchange rates. The ensuing volatility in global markets has made access to capital less certain and more costly. Booking currently has $2B available under its revolving credit facility, representing around 15% of their total liquidity, with a $4.5B minimum liquidity covenant. A downgrade in credit rating from their current A- status could likewise harm access to capital. Lastly, because a large majority of Bookings business comes from outside the U.S. they are exposed to swings in currency rates, which are amplified by pandemic-driven market uncertainty.</p>\n<p><b>But an industry bounce-back is inevitable</b></p>\n<p>It is no secret that Booking, along with the entire travel industry, took heavy hits as a result of the covid-19 pandemic. 2020 brought the biggest disruption to modern global travel the world has ever seen. But there is light at the end of the tunnel. Travel restrictions within the domestic U.S. are already largely lifted, but many international limits are still in place. Keep in mind that Booking gets most of their business from outside the U.S. Once international limits are relaxed, Booking is sure to reap the benefits. Meanwhile, experts are aiming at areturn to somewhat normalcyby the end of 2021 and into 2022, as vaccine rollouts rapidly become more widespread and pent up demand for travel is unleashed. To paint a picture, in March 2021 U.S. travel spending tallied $69.5B, significantly higher than the previous four months, but still 31% below March 2019 levels.</p>\n<p><b>A quick look at key Financials</b></p>\n<p>The pandemic drained Bookings revenues by a staggering 55% from their 2019 highs. However, despite months of the worst travel stagnation in history, Booking still collected industry leading revenues, a testament to management's relentless efforts to keep the ship afloat. Also, revenue is expected to rebound nearly 40% in 2021 as vaccine rollouts and regulation leniency spur a resurgence in travel demand (per Factset.com). I don't think I'm alone in believing that covid fears are dissipating and the world will get back on its feet sooner rather than later. Figure 7 shows revenue growth and segment breakdown since 2016.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cd73c67b97083d7b253d5013d7cfe91a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"541\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>A quick DCF valuation</b></p>\n<p>I believe Booking Holdings is undervalued at their current share price. My valuation is based on a discounted free cash flow model that projects ten years into the future and arrives at a terminal value into perpetuity. Other metrics used in the model are the company's WAAC of 6.5% (as of June 19, 2021), total debt of $12.54B, and total cash of $11.08B. These numbers are courtesy of FactSet.com The speed at which Booking can return to pre-pandemic levels of revenue is the main driver of each case.</p>\n<p><b>Base Case</b></p>\n<p>Is meant to reflect the current market share price of around $2,242.61. This case sees modest 2021 revenue growth as travel begins to make a comeback. FCF's will settle slightly under historical averages. Revenue will reach pre-covid levels by around 2026. Booking will then grow revenues at 2% and collect FCF's at 30% into perpetuity.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/38880160c2b34ac87bdbf49c369f58dc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"58\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>Bear Case</b></p>\n<p>Is meant to reflect an environment heavily effected by covid for years to come. This case sees tiny revenue growth in 2021, and taking until 2028 to reach pre-pandemic levels. FCF's will remain constant. This case results in a share price of $2,002.53, representing a potential loss of 10.7%.</p>\n<p><b>Bull Case</b></p>\n<p>Is meant to reflect an environment quickly emerging from the pandemic. This case sees a significant bounce back in 2021 revenues, per FactSet analyst consensus, as travel restrictions and sentiments continue to dissipate. Pre-pandemic revenues will be exceeded by 2024. FCF's will remain constant. This case results in a share price of $3,514.63, representing a potential gain of 56.7%.</p>\n<p><b>Most importantly,</b></p>\n<p>When considering how soon the world will return to \"normal\", the disparity between expert forecasts and current public sentiment is brutally wide. The current market valuation suggests a return to pre-covid revenues by around 2025-2026. Keep in mind, the CDC expects a return to normalcy by the end of this year and potentially into 2022. Even adding on a year or two and chalking it up as a forecasting error doesn't yield the same fear-driven timeline predictions that the market currently holds.</p>\n<p><b>Overall,</b></p>\n<p>As vaccine rollouts continue worldwide and travel restrictions are lowered, the travel industry is gearing up for a major rebound. Booking is in a perfect position to capitalize. They are the worldwide market leader. They are expanding into new markets effectively. They have demonstrated solid financial success through the pandemic. And they are becoming vastly more profitable. To me, this is a no-brainer.

They will lead the resurgence in travel.\n\ntupungato/iStock Editorial via Getty Images\nPoised for a comeback\nBooking Holdings(NASDAQ:BKNG), the world leader in online travel services, is in prime position to emerge from the pandemic in spectacular fashion and spearhead the worldwide resurgence in travel. They will do this by growing their core business, especially within the U.S. where they currently trail in market share, and by shifting their business model to focus more heavily on collecting merchant revenues, which are far more profitable than the agency revenues that make up most of their current sales figure.\nGrowth Strategies emerging from pandemic\nBooking Holdings is aiming at growth strategies through two main avenues; expanding and solidifying a uniform payment platform, and capturing more U.S. market share. Both of their growth strategies are centered around their move towards an increasingly merchant focused business model.\nIntegrating a uniform payment platform can help Booking power the frictionless global marketplace that they seek to create. Booking is trying to alleviate the problem of foreign exchange complications and users not being able to pay how they want for travel. The current payment platform is catching on, but slowly. Only 22% of gross bookings in 2020 were processed on Booking's integrated platform. However, this is up from 15% in 2019, and the figure is expected to grow in the coming years. Implementing this platform will enable merchandising capabilities that Booking hasn't had access to historically. Most importantly, it is foundational for the \"connected trip\" strategy; a seamless offering of multiple elements of travel, and Booking's long-term strategic goal.\nCapturing a greater share of the U.S. market is an imperative growth strategy for Booking for numerous reasons. Firstly, Booking trails competitors Expedia and Airbnb in terms of U.S. market share. While the U.S. hotel market is not quite as profitable for travel fare aggregators like Booking and Expedia when compared to the European market, mainly due to the dominance of hotel chains in the U.S., the potential for Booking to tap into the U.S. alternative accommodation market is promising. And this is what leadership is trying to do. In order to penetrate the market Booking will focus on product improvements, raising consumer awareness of this type of inventory, and supply acquisition. They are planning to work with professional property management partners to grow and acquire a supply of single-home properties. Additionally, as a result of the covid-19 pandemic and associated regulations there has been a shift in favor of domestic travel and alternative accommodations, a signal for Booking to enter into the U.S. space where they currently lack market share. To paint a picture of the growth potential; 41% of Airbnb's revenue comes from its U.S. segment. That 41% is larger than the entire European market where Booking currently has a strong foothold. This implies thatBooking has an opportunity to double their alternative accommodation businessby penetrating into the U.S.\nThe growing trend of homeowners leasing out their unused living spaces is staggering, and it is what pumps Airbnb's valuation up so high to its current Enterprise Value of $114B. Even though Booking records 3x Airbnb's pre-pandemic revenues, their Enterprise Value is 15% less. Many indicators point to Airbnb being overvalued, but one thing is clear; the market for alternative accommodations is growing at immense rates worldwide, and Booking is well poised to dig their teeth into a large chunk of that market share.\nShift from Agency to Merchant Revenues\nThe most exciting thing on Booking's horizon, however, is their focus on becoming more profitable by shifting revenues to weigh more heavily on the merchant segment. Booking has scaled up to be the world leader in market share, and now they are prepared to capitalize on their huge size and reach. Below, I will break down the differences between the two significant revenue items that Booking recognizes, Agency Revenues and Merchant Revenues. Figure 3 shows 2019 revenue breakdown.\n\nAgency Revenues make up the bulk of Booking's total revenue figure. These revenues are derived from transactions in which Booking does not facilitate payments for services, and consist almost entirely of travel reservation commissions invoiced to service providers after travel is completed. This type of revenue model is what helped Booking scale up to attain the market share they have today. However, since they don't facilitate the payments, they are limited on fees and other benefits like increased float.\nMerchant Revenues make up the second largest chunk of Booking's total revenue figure, but are growing at a faster rate. These revenues are derived from transactions in which Booking facilitates the payment of services, generally at the time of booking. From a cash flow perspective, since Booking gets money upfront and doesn't relinquish it to the service provider until the time of stay, they are able to hold onto this cash for months, mostly for free, and can use it to invest and grow the business. These revenues are also more lucrative because Booking charges fees on top of already higher commissions.\nAdvertising & Other Revenues make up the smallest portion of Booking's total revenue figure. These revenues are largely derived from referrals, subscription fees, and advertising placements.\n\nUnder CEO Glenn Fogel's leadership, Booking Holdings istaking strides to grow their merchant revenues at rapid rates. The merchant business model is far more lucrative for Booking on a commission basis, and it also improves their cash flows, allowing them to invest more heavily into future projects. The agency model is great for cheap growth; it is what helped Booking reach the dominant market position that it has today. But the time to capitalize on their massive scale has come, as leadership takes them in a more value-productive direction. Increasing merchant revenues will make them more profitable, improving their already above-average EBITDA margin. Figure 4 shows Booking's growing focus on merchant revenues since Glenn Fogel became CEO in 2017.\nKeep in mind, Booking's largest competitor, Expedia, has a closer split between Agency and Merchant revenues than they do. Despite this, Expedia only has an average 15% EBITDA margin across the last twelve years, compared to Booking's 37%, which will only go up as Booking narrows the field between Agency and Merchant revenues (industry benchmark is 30%). This demonstrates how much more efficient Booking is at turning sales into profits, and highlights the fact that they consistently outperform their competitors in doing so. Moving forward, they will only widen this gap.\nThere are Risks\nReliance on an industry bounce back is one. Booking has a heavy reliance on the overall travel industry getting back on its feet as soon as possible. If government regulations and social distancing sentiments continue to stifle the travel industry at large, it will take Booking longer to return to their pre-pandemic scale.\nCompetitors are another. Booking faces competition from all angles. Expedia is their main direct competitor, and currently holds a majority U.S. market share. If Booking fails to expand more prominently into the U.S. and stagnates growth in other global markets, their overall industry market share dominance could be threatened. Airbnb is spearheading the rise of alternative accommodations, a market that Booking is also competing in. Google could continue its dive into successful reservation meta-search applications such as Google Flights. Their continued expansion into the space could take significant market share away from Booking. Lastly, many hotel chains, especially in the U.S., are developing and facilitating their own direct channels for travelers. If they can create enough consumer awareness and drive enough traffic to their own flagship sites, there would be no need for a majority of Bookings services.\nCOVID-19 Effects on Finances cannot be omitted. The adverse impacts of the covid-19 pandemic could distress liquidity, credit rating, and foreign exchange rates. The ensuing volatility in global markets has made access to capital less certain and more costly. Booking currently has $2B available under its revolving credit facility, representing around 15% of their total liquidity, with a $4.5B minimum liquidity covenant. A downgrade in credit rating from their current A- status could likewise harm access to capital. Lastly, because a large majority of Bookings business comes from outside the U.S. they are exposed to swings in currency rates, which are amplified by pandemic-driven market uncertainty.\nBut an industry bounce-back is inevitable\nIt is no secret that Booking, along with the entire travel industry, took heavy hits as a result of the covid-19 pandemic. 2020 brought the biggest disruption to modern global travel the world has ever seen. But there is light at the end of the tunnel. Travel restrictions within the domestic U.S. are already largely lifted, but many international limits are still in place. Keep in mind that Booking gets most of their business from outside the U.S. Once international limits are relaxed, Booking is sure to reap the benefits. Meanwhile, experts are aiming at areturn to somewhat normalcyby the end of 2021 and into 2022, as vaccine rollouts rapidly become more widespread and pent up demand for travel is unleashed. To paint a picture, in March 2021 U.S. travel spending tallied $69.5B, significantly higher than the previous four months, but still 31% below March 2019 levels.\nA quick look at key Financials\nThe pandemic drained Bookings revenues by a staggering 55% from their 2019 highs. However, despite months of the worst travel stagnation in history, Booking still collected industry leading revenues, a testament to management's relentless efforts to keep the ship afloat. Also, revenue is expected to rebound nearly 40% in 2021 as vaccine rollouts and regulation leniency spur a resurgence in travel demand (per Factset.com). I don't think I'm alone in believing that covid fears are dissipating and the world will get back on its feet sooner rather than later. Figure 7 shows revenue growth and segment breakdown since 2016.\n\nA quick DCF valuation\nI believe Booking Holdings is undervalued at their current share price. My valuation is based on a discounted free cash flow model that projects ten years into the future and arrives at a terminal value into perpetuity. Other metrics used in the model are the company's WAAC of 6.5% (as of June 19, 2021), total debt of $12.54B, and total cash of $11.08B. These numbers are courtesy of FactSet.com The speed at which Booking can return to pre-pandemic levels of revenue is the main driver of each case.\nBase Case\nIs meant to reflect the current market share price of around $2,242.61. This case sees modest 2021 revenue growth as travel begins to make a comeback. FCF's will settle slightly under historical averages. Revenue will reach pre-covid levels by around 2026. Booking will then grow revenues at 2% and collect FCF's at 30% into perpetuity.\n\nBear Case\nIs meant to reflect an environment heavily effected by covid for years to come. This case sees tiny revenue growth in 2021, and taking until 2028 to reach pre-pandemic levels. FCF's will remain constant. This case results in a share price of $2,002.53, representing a potential loss of 10.7%.\nBull Case\nIs meant to reflect an environment quickly emerging from the pandemic. This case sees a significant bounce back in 2021 revenues, per FactSet analyst consensus, as travel restrictions and sentiments continue to dissipate. Pre-pandemic revenues will be exceeded by 2024. FCF's will remain constant. This case results in a share price of $3,514.63, representing a potential gain of 56.7%.\nMost importantly,\nWhen considering how soon the world will return to \"normal\", the disparity between expert forecasts and current public sentiment is brutally wide. The current market valuation suggests a return to pre-covid revenues by around 2025-2026. Keep in mind, the CDC expects a return to normalcy by the end of this year and potentially into 2022. Even adding on a year or two and chalking it up as a forecasting error doesn't yield the same fear-driven timeline predictions that the market currently holds.\nOverall,\nAs vaccine rollouts continue worldwide and travel restrictions are lowered, the travel industry is gearing up for a major rebound. Booking is in a perfect position to capitalize. They are the worldwide market leader. They are expanding into new markets effectively. They have demonstrated solid financial success through the pandemic. And they are becoming vastly more profitable. To me, this is a no-brainer.

Sales will be down only 37.5% compared with their level two years ago. American had previously predicted a 40% drop from pre-pandemic levels.\n“We are clearly moving in the right direction,” Chief Executive Officer Doug Parker and President Robert Isom said in a message to employees. “Our revenue and expense performance in the quarter came in better than expectations, and this was achieved while bringing the operation back up to full capacity and safely transporting a record number of travelers.”\nSpurred by vaccination campaigns, lighter government restrictions and pent-up demand from consumers after more than a year of mostly staying close to home, air travel is recovering faster than expected. U.S. airlines are poised to provide more insight into the state of that comeback as most carriers report second-quarter results over the next 10 days, starting Wednesday with Delta Air Lines Inc.\nAmerican jumped 5.5% to $21.12 at 9:49 a.m. in New York, easily topping the S&P 500.

Minnesota man criminally charged this month with securities fraud in a scheme to hijack dormant shell companies also may have recently seized control of a Florida penny-stock company, or at least tried to, court filings suggest.\nFederal prosecutors and the Securities and Exchange Commission in separatecriminalandcivil actionsfiled in Minnesota federal court this month accuse Mark Miller of using bogus documents to take over inactive shell companies and falsely inflate their stock prices, before selling millions of shares for profit.\nMiller, a 43-year-old general contractor, is a resident of Breezy Point, Minnesota,where he had been a Republican member of city council until resigning days after his indictment.\nAccording to prosecutors, Miller, his criminal case co-defendant Saied Jaberian and an unidentified relative of Miller actually became the nominal CEOs and presidents of the companies targeted in the alleged scam.\nCivil court documents filed in Florida starting in February show a Minnesota man with the same name, Mark Miller, engaged in efforts to take over another dormant shell company,New World Gold Corp.\nNew World Gold, which purports to be in the business of mining gold ore, is not one of seven companies identified as targets of Miller's purported scheme in the federal criminal case or in the civil SEC case, which are pending in Minnesota federal court.\nBut Florida court filings, press releases and social media activity surrounding New World Gold mirror allegations against Miller and his two co-defendants in the \"pump and dump\" scheme described in Minnesota court by federal prosecutors and securities regulators.\nNew World Gold's shares haveincreased in both price and trading volumein the past several months, ever since a man named Mark Miller filed the actions in Florida court seeking to control the company.\nA day afterCNBC broke the news of the criminal indictmentagainst Miller on June 18, New World Gold issued a statement on Twitter claiming that \"Mark Miller\" is not affiliated with the company.\nNew World Gold did not say that the \"Mark Miller\" who was connected to that company in court filings is a different Mark Miller from the one who was indicted in Minnesota.\nA number of people who follow the company on stock discussion boards pointed out that the company also did not explain why it would disclaim a connection to Mark Miller if that person was not the individual criminally charged in Minnesota.\nRobert Lengeling, Miller's criminal defense lawyer in Minnesota, declined to comment, and his client did not respond to CNBC's requests for comment.\n'Pump and dump'\nFederal prosecutors in Minnesota say Miller targeted at least four shell companies in the scheme that is the subject of the indictment against him and his co-defendants in the criminal case, Jaberian and Christopher James Rajkaran.\nThat indictment said the men allegedly used fake resignation letters from officials of the companies to seize control of the dormant companies.\nThey then issued false or misleading statements via press releases and social media, as well as the SEC's own EDGAR public filing system, to claim the companies had attractive new business opportunities, according to the charges.\nMiller and his alleged co-conspirators bought millions of shares of these companies, often for less than a penny, then sold those shares after pumping up the stock price with their fraudulent claims, the indictment said.\nProsecutors believe Miller and his associates made hundreds of thousands of dollars in illicit profits from the alleged scheme, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in Minnesota told CNBC.\nThe companies were identified in the indictment as Digitiliti,Encompass Holdings,Bell Buckle HoldingsandUtilicraft Aerospace Industries.\nThe SEC, in its civil lawsuit filed June 18 against Miller alone, identified three additional penny-stock companies also believed to be similarly targeted by Miller, beyond the four identified in the criminal case. Those three companies are Bebida Beverage Company,Simulated Environment ConceptsandStrategic Asset Leasing.\nMiller and New World Gold\nAll seven companies, like New World Gold, had been inactive before Miller got involved with them, court filings say.\nThe Florida Division of Corporationsdatabaseindicated that New World Gold was reinstated on that database on June 4, after having been dormant for more than five years.\nThe company's shares trade publicly on the over-the-counter market. New World Gold is listed by OTC Markets Group on its \"Pink\" platform, with a \"No Information\" warning. The \"company may not be making material information publicly available,\" that warning says.\nThe business hasno record of any SEC filings, which include a company's quarterly and annual financial statements, changes in executive positions, and other documents typically used by professionals and investors to make informed decisions about whether to buy or sell shares.\nNew World Gold's reappearance on the Florida state corporate database came almost four months after someone identifying himself as a Minnesota resident named Mark Miller filed a lawsuit in Florida'sPalm Beach County courtagainst New World Gold, seeking an order to hold a shareholder meeting.\nA Palm Beach County judge in April granted the motion and ordered a shareholder meeting to be held on May 27, court records show.\nMiller said in a June 17 court filing that during that shareholder meeting, \"a motion was made to remove an existing director (who is physically incapacitated) and to have Mr. Miller elected as director.\"\nThe same filing claims shareholders voted unanimously to elect Miller as director.\nNew World Gold claimed in a June 11press releasethat it acquired a mining business in Wyoming with access to gold and lithium. Lithium is a material used in batteries for personal electronics, as well as for electric vehicles.\nA week later, on June 18, a press releaseclaimed New World Gold had identified property in Nevada and South Dakota for mining.\nThe company said in apress releaseFriday that it had \"officially acquired\" a placer claim in South Dakota.\nPosts on Twitter, Stocktwits, Reddit and Investors Hub referenced Miller as CEO of New World Gold.\n\"$NWGC power hour definitely still at a buy I bought some more off this little dip!! I have trust in the new CEO Mark Miller,\" one Twitter usersaidon June 1.\n\"I think we get a lithium announcement with $nwgc,\" another user tweeted on June 3.\n\"I followed the CEO on twitter Mark Miller ... I expect him to drop BOMBS tomorrow!!!\"\nBut the companytweetedon June 4 that it appointed Ohio lawyer Bob Honigford as its CEO and director.\nA search for Honigford in the SEC documents database returns no results. He did not respond to requests for comment by CNBC.\n\"So, no Mark Miller....,\" a user said in aReddit forum called NWGCShareholders.\n\"This is terrible news,\" another user chimed in.\n\"Mark was the guy to get investor attention and reinstatement. Bob actually does business in the field,\" a different user said in the same thread.\nNew World Gold's stock price peaked on June 3 at around 4 cents.\nBut by Friday it was trading at less than a penny. That still was more than 8,000% higher than its 52-week low in December, before Miller's lawsuit.\nThe 30-day average trading volume of New World Gold shares is more than 146 million shares changing hands per day.\nNew World Gold responds\nFollowing CNBC's reporting on Miller's indictment, New World Gold tweeted that Miller was not connected to the company, despite claims to the contrary in the Palm Beach County complaint.\n\"Miller has no control over Corporate activity or news releases, and he is NOT involved with the future expansion of Operations,\" New World Goldtweetedon June 19.\nDavid Rothstein, the lawyer representing Mark Miller in the Palm Beach County court lawsuit involving New World Gold, likewise did not respond to a request for comment.\nCNBC could not reach New World Gold at the email address listed on its press releases.\nThe SEC did not respond to CNBC's requests for comment.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":36,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":893954553,"gmtCreate":1628232635772,"gmtModify":1703503635488,"author":{"id":"4087969217298310","authorId":"4087969217298310","name":"SamYLynn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2581a5661edccdf8baba42d6c0fe2d18","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087969217298310","idStr":"4087969217298310"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BS6.SI\">$YANGZIJIANG SHIPBLDG HLDGS LTD(BS6.SI)$</a>??????","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BS6.SI\">$YANGZIJIANG SHIPBLDG HLDGS LTD(BS6.SI)$</a>??????","text":"$YANGZIJIANG SHIPBLDG HLDGS LTD(BS6.SI)$??????","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/794a9d7fcf35318403d06d36042e916c","width":"1170","height":"2026"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/893954553","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":644,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":151954413,"gmtCreate":1625062366732,"gmtModify":1703735200832,"author":{"id":"4087969217298310","authorId":"4087969217298310","name":"SamYLynn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2581a5661edccdf8baba42d6c0fe2d18","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087969217298310","idStr":"4087969217298310"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh&nbsp;","listText":"Oh&nbsp;","text":"Oh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/151954413","repostId":"1142269235","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1142269235","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1625039703,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1142269235?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-30 15:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Coinbase CEO Gives Apple's Example As He Calls For Building The 'Crypto App Store'","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1142269235","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Coinbase Global Inc(NASDAQ:COIN) CEO Brian Armstrong, in a blog post on Tuesday, called for the buil","content":"<p><b>Coinbase Global Inc</b>(NASDAQ:COIN) CEO Brian Armstrong,&nbsp;in a blog post on Tuesday, called for the building of the “crypto app store” similar to the one created by&nbsp;<b>Apple Inc</b>(NASDAQ:AAPL).</p>\n<p><b>What Happened:</b>Armstrong noted that the cryptocurrency use cases have grown, citing the examples of non-fungible tokens or NFTs and Decentralized Applications of DApps.</p>\n<p>Calling for a store similar to the App Store, he wrote, “We need to do the same in crypto.

In his long history at <b>Berkshire Hathaway </b>(NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B), Buffett has had plenty of time to make moves that in hindsight have cost the insurance conglomerate and its shareholders billions of dollars.</p>\n<p>One of Buffett's most recent moves to receive criticism from investors is his handling of Berkshire's holdings of airline stocks in the immediate aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many point simply to the terrible result of selling at which proved to be just about the absolute low point in the pandemic-driven sell-off. But results-oriented thinking can lead to misleading conclusions that in the end can keep you from becoming a better investor.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e22701209a2d3771df1ea06f7784da80\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"469\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>A short history of Buffett's latest airline investments</h2>\n<p>Buffett has long been a skeptic of airline investments, noting their history of bankruptcies and destruction of shareholder value. It was therefore surprising for many to see Berkshire build up significant positions in <b>Delta Air Lines </b>(NYSE:DAL), <b>Southwest Airlines </b>(NYSE:LUV), <b>American Airlines Group </b>(NASDAQ:AAL), and <b>United Airlines Holdings </b>(NASDAQ:UAL) starting in 2016.</p>\n<p>By early 2020, Berkshire's stakes in a couple of his airline holdings had reached 10%. There was even speculation that Berkshire would buy an airline outright.</p>\n<p>Yet as the pandemic brought air travel to a halt, Buffett made an about face during the spring of 2020. He made substantial sales of airline stocks in early April and then exited all of his positions by the 2020 shareholder meeting in early May.</p>\n<p>Since then, airline stocks have recovered sharply. By <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> account, had Buffett held on to his stocks, then they would be worth nearly $5 billion more than the sales proceeds he actually got.</p>\n<h2>Buffett thinks in bets</h2>\n<p>As big a blunder as that might seem, the apparent lost opportunity is only a mistake from the viewpoint of what actually happened. But as decision strategist and world-class poker player Annie <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DEX.AU\">Duke</a> explains in her book <i>Thinking in Bets</i>, relying on results-oriented thinking can be dangerous.</p>\n<p>Buffett has made his rationale for selling airline stocks quite clear:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Although there was a chance that the government would step in to bail out airlines, it was far from a foregone conclusion at the time. Indeed, had Berkshire held on to its position, the government might well have been <i>less </i>inclined to offer assistance, jeopardizing the airlines' future. Moreover, much of that assistance came in the form of outright grants that airlines won't have to repay -- a move that still rankles some who argued that small businesses should get the same level of support.</li>\n <li>Even now, airlines still face big hurdles. Although domestic travel has opened up significantly, there are still substantial restrictions on the international routes that Delta, American, and United rely on for much of their sales and profits. Debt levels are higher than they were before the pandemic as well.</li>\n <li>Business travel might yet <i>never </i>return to pre-pandemic levels. Innovations like improved video conferencing and remote work arrangements are here to stay, and they'll likely displace at least a fraction of air travel indefinitely.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Of course, Buffett couldn't be certain that his worst-case scenarios would come true. But again, that's not the right metric to use. As Duke explains, \"What makes a great decision is not that it has a great outcome. A great decision is the result of a good process, and that process must include an attempt to accurately represent our own state of knowledge. That state of knowledge, in turn, is some variation of 'I'm not sure.'\"</p>\n<p>In other words, there's nothing wrong with embracing the uncertainty inherent in any decision. Great decision-makers won't get great results <i>every </i>time, but their superior processes will lead to superior performance <i>much </i>of the time.

In his long history at Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A) (NYSE:BRK.B), Buffett has had plenty of time to make moves that in hindsight have cost the insurance conglomerate and its shareholders billions of dollars.\nOne of Buffett's most recent moves to receive criticism from investors is his handling of Berkshire's holdings of airline stocks in the immediate aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many point simply to the terrible result of selling at which proved to be just about the absolute low point in the pandemic-driven sell-off. But results-oriented thinking can lead to misleading conclusions that in the end can keep you from becoming a better investor.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nA short history of Buffett's latest airline investments\nBuffett has long been a skeptic of airline investments, noting their history of bankruptcies and destruction of shareholder value. It was therefore surprising for many to see Berkshire build up significant positions in Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL), Southwest Airlines (NYSE:LUV), American Airlines Group (NASDAQ:AAL), and United Airlines Holdings (NASDAQ:UAL) starting in 2016.\nBy early 2020, Berkshire's stakes in a couple of his airline holdings had reached 10%. There was even speculation that Berkshire would buy an airline outright.\nYet as the pandemic brought air travel to a halt, Buffett made an about face during the spring of 2020. He made substantial sales of airline stocks in early April and then exited all of his positions by the 2020 shareholder meeting in early May.\nSince then, airline stocks have recovered sharply. By one account, had Buffett held on to his stocks, then they would be worth nearly $5 billion more than the sales proceeds he actually got.\nBuffett thinks in bets\nAs big a blunder as that might seem, the apparent lost opportunity is only a mistake from the viewpoint of what actually happened. But as decision strategist and world-class poker player Annie Duke explains in her book Thinking in Bets, relying on results-oriented thinking can be dangerous.\nBuffett has made his rationale for selling airline stocks quite clear:\n\nAlthough there was a chance that the government would step in to bail out airlines, it was far from a foregone conclusion at the time. Indeed, had Berkshire held on to its position, the government might well have been less inclined to offer assistance, jeopardizing the airlines' future. Moreover, much of that assistance came in the form of outright grants that airlines won't have to repay -- a move that still rankles some who argued that small businesses should get the same level of support.\nEven now, airlines still face big hurdles. Although domestic travel has opened up significantly, there are still substantial restrictions on the international routes that Delta, American, and United rely on for much of their sales and profits. Debt levels are higher than they were before the pandemic as well.\nBusiness travel might yet never return to pre-pandemic levels. Innovations like improved video conferencing and remote work arrangements are here to stay, and they'll likely displace at least a fraction of air travel indefinitely.\n\nOf course, Buffett couldn't be certain that his worst-case scenarios would come true. But again, that's not the right metric to use. As Duke explains, \"What makes a great decision is not that it has a great outcome. A great decision is the result of a good process, and that process must include an attempt to accurately represent our own state of knowledge. That state of knowledge, in turn, is some variation of 'I'm not sure.'\"\nIn other words, there's nothing wrong with embracing the uncertainty inherent in any decision. Great decision-makers won't get great results every time, but their superior processes will lead to superior performance much of the time. In investing, that's all you need to succeed.\nBe a better investor\nInstead of spending time congratulating yourself for stocks that go up and beating yourself up over stocks that go down, the better path to become a smarter investor is to look more closely at your decision-making process to make sure it's as strong as it can be. The more you focus on putting the odds in your favor, the more likely it is you'll find the same investment success that Buffett is famous for.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":298,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":150480422,"gmtCreate":1624924557866,"gmtModify":1703847910122,"author":{"id":"4087969217298310","authorId":"4087969217298310","name":"SamYLynn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2581a5661edccdf8baba42d6c0fe2d18","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4087969217298310","idStr":"4087969217298310"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment","listText":"Comment","text":"Comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/150480422","repostId":"1105982179","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1105982179","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624889210,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1105982179?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-28 22:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir: The Mass Exodus","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1105982179","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nShort interest in Palantir dropped by 23.8% in the latest cycle.\nEven though Palantir conti","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Short interest in Palantir dropped by 23.8% in the latest cycle.</li>\n <li>Even though Palantir continues to be surrounded by bearish narratives, market participants don't seem to be comfortable with shorting the stock.</li>\n <li>The stock could rally further.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16279727ada0c46eb4d43744da02d1cc\" tg-width=\"768\" tg-height=\"512\"><span>Michael Vi/iStock Editorial via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p>Palantir's (PLTR) shares are up 20% in the last month alone but the rally could still continue. Latest data reveals that short interest in Palantir declined by 23.8% in the latest cycle alone. This suggests that a broad swath of market participants isn't buying into the bearish narratives surrounding the company, perceive its stock to be fairly valued and perhaps even anticipate it to rally going forward. This development should come across as an encouraging sign for the company's long-side investors. Let's take a closer look at it all.</p>\n<p><b>The Data</b></p>\n<p>I'd like to start by explaining the term \"short interest\" for the uninitiated. It's essentially the total number of short positions that are open against any given stock. A sharp rise in the metric indicates that traders grew bearish on the concerned company, and actively initiated short positions against it. Conversely, a sharp decline in the metric indicates that traders actively wound up their short positions either perhaps because they anticipate the stock to bottom out and/or rally going forward. So, the short interest is a useful tool to gauge the Street's ever-evolving market sentiment.</p>\n<p>In Palantir's case, its short interest at the end of the latest data cycle stood at 52.3 million, sharply down by 23.8% on a sequential basis. Although Palantir's short interest figure isn't at its all-time low yet, the pace of its recent decline, however, is certainly one of the fastest in the company's brief history since its direct listing last year. For the record, Palantir has over 1.8 billion shares outstanding which means that about 2.8% of its entire share total had been shorted. Also, the short interest data is for the cycle spanning from early June to mid-June, and the data wasreleasedon Thursday.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/95e4623fda1d9079a2699b57d4ee0f42\" tg-width=\"637\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Next, I wanted to confirm if other software application companies also registered a sharp reduction in their short interest figures, or was Palantir an anomaly in its peer group. So, to get a broader perspective on its industry, I pulled the short interest figures for about 100 software application stocks listed in the US. Interestingly, 55% of these stocks registered a net reduction in their short interest figures, of varying magnitudes of course, which points to an industry-wide short unwinding.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/091feec9aa17f821d01f34a7b46bb2bb\" tg-width=\"610\" tg-height=\"506\"><span>(Source: BusinessQuant.com, Wsj.com)</span></p>\n<p>Moreover, the median short interest decline was 1.9%, whereas Palantir's short interest declined by a far more significant 23.8% during the same data cycle. In fact, there were just 6 other stocks in our study group, which saw their short interest decline in excess of 23.8%. This conclusively shows that market participants were far too active with unwinding their short positions in Palantir.</p>\n<p>But this leads us to an important question - why are market participants so cautious with shorting Palantir in the first place?</p>\n<p><b>Cautious for Good Reason</b></p>\n<p>As I've explained in my prior articles, Palantir has several initiatives at play which could collectively catapult its growth in 2021-22. These initiatives include itstransitionto a customer-friendly payment model to boost commercial sales, offeringfree trialsto major companies to expand its sales funnel and expanding itssales teamto revamp its outbound marketing function. We won't be discussing the same points again to avoid being repetitive, but the takeaway here is that since Palantir is undertaking several growth initiatives, it makes for a risky short bet for the time being at least.</p>\n<p>But don't take my word for it.</p>\n<p>The community of professional analysts is realizing Palantir's growth potential and raising their revenue estimates for its current fiscal year. They've raised their FY21 revenue estimates by about 5% so far since mid-January and there's no telling how many of such upward revenue revisions are still in store for the remainder of Palantir's FY21. This bullish uncertainty presents an unfavorable risk-reward ratio for short-side market participants and explains why short interest in Palantir continues to decline.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/74bccdf90ceb880c1a3edddad8743a1e\" tg-width=\"636\" tg-height=\"419\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>There's another point to consider here, that nobody seems to be talking about. Palantir has won several COVID-19 tracking-related contracts (such ashere,here,here,hereandhere) over the last 12 - 15 months as government agencies across the globe grappled to control the spread and tried to better manage their resources. With COVID-19 said to be making a fierce comeback with thedelta variant, I contend that Palantir could experience a similar order windfall this year, from proactive government agencies, which could boost the company's government sales along the way.</p>\n<p>Lastly, several commenters argue that Palantir's shares are trading at a premium and are due for a sharp correction. Its shares are trading at about 34-times trailing twelve-month sales so it's understandable why many might think that the stock is overvalued. But I believe the problem with this approach is that we're not factoring in industry-wide trading multiples or Palantir's revenue growth rate, compared to its peers.</p>\n<p>So, to put things in perspective, I compiled the revenue growth rates and price-to-sales (or P/S) multiples for over 320 software infrastructure and software application stocks that are currently listed on US exchanges. Next, I benchmarked these industry groups based on Palantir's revenue growth rate and its P/S multiple. As it turns out, over 90% of Palantir's peers have a slower revenue growth and/or are trading at higher trading multiples. This suggests that Palantir's higher pace of growth justifies its price premium and that the bearish concerns regarding its valuations, are exaggerated.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fefb171f61438817b747d6a50fff8133\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"414\"><span>(Source: Business Quant.com)</span></p>\n<p><b>Final Thoughts</b></p>\n<p>I'd like to point to readers that fluctuations in short interest figures don't always impact the underlying stock prices. This data is based on short positions that were open at a prior cut-off date and investors with a long-term time horizon should, at best, use it to corroborate their bull or bear thesis.</p>\n<p>Having said that, if the bearish narratives surrounding Palantir held any merit, or posed a legitimate risk to its share price, a broad swath of market participants would've actively shorted the stock to profit off of this near-certain eventuality.

This suggests that Palantir's higher pace of growth justifies its price premium and that the bearish concerns regarding its valuations, are exaggerated.\n(Source: Business Quant.com)\nFinal Thoughts\nI'd like to point to readers that fluctuations in short interest figures don't always impact the underlying stock prices. This data is based on short positions that were open at a prior cut-off date and investors with a long-term time horizon should, at best, use it to corroborate their bull or bear thesis.\nHaving said that, if the bearish narratives surrounding Palantir held any merit, or posed a legitimate risk to its share price, a broad swath of market participants would've actively shorted the stock to profit off of this near-certain eventuality. But that didn't happen and its short interest declined instead, that too by a significant amount.\nThis active short unwinding indicates that market participants are uncomfortable in shorting the stock at current levels. This should come across as a reassuring sign for the company's long-side shareholders. The stock seems to be fairly valued and has the potential to rally further.
