SummaryCarvana's stock price surged by over 50% after a press release and presentation at the William Blair Annual Growth Stock Conference, but the forecasted 20% boost in gross profit is likely a one-time event due to a timing issue in loan sales.Despite impressive growth, Carvana has never been profitable, accumulating total losses of over $2.2 billion and carrying a debt of over $8 billion with negative shareholder's equity.The company's debt trades at prices well below nominal value, indicating a risk of bankruptcy, and it is unlikely that Carvana can generate enough cash to redeem $500 million of bonds due in 2025.Joe RaedleOn the morning of June 8th, before the market opened, Carvana $Carvana Co.(CVNA)$ issued a press release and an 8-K form

Bullish on Huya $Huya Inc.(HUYA)$!As you can see, we have a nice cup and handle chart pattern. The cup base looks pretty strong at 12 weeks of formation. I'm expecting an entry at $3.89 if the vol is greater than 4M. I predict this stock will run up within the next couple of weeks. I'm expecting to take profits around $4.75 but I wouldn't be shocked if price runs up to 5.10 on really strong vol. My stop loss will be set at $3.59 (last support level) to manage a 8% loss if trend breaks. What do you guys think about this idea?

Tomshardware.com has an insightful analysis of Intel’s foundry plans. They state Intel aspires to be #2 foundry device by 2030, beating out Samsung for that rank behind TMSC. Imho, to do so would require a huge culture shift away from being totally focused on their own CPU products, to being focused on making their customers successful at getting to market with products profitable for the customer.

Palantir (PLTR)is a divisive name on Wall Street. The bull-case rests on the big data specialist’s ability to expand its offerings beyond large government/enterprise contracts which have historically generated the bulk of the company’s revenue. The bear case is driven by an argument its high-end offerings are generally unsuitable for smaller companies who are already well served and that ultimately with government contracts slowing down, the company won’t be able to meet its growth objectives. Evaluating the company’s prospects, Piper Sandler’s Weston Twigg belongs in the former camp. “We view PLTR as a high-growth company with a rapidly expanding customer base,” said the 5-star analyst. “While controversial, we believe growth targets are achievable.” So, what are those growth targets?

SummaryTSMC is expected to maintain its unrivaled position as it addresses the competition posed by Integrated Device Manufacturers like Intel, which TSMC was established to counter in my view.Since 2013, TSMC has significantly improved its profitability ratios, with the latest figures in 2023 approaching record highs.TSMC has been actively increasing its capital expenditures, indicating a likelihood that this trend will continue in the future.Utilizing a DCF model, I valued TSMC by considering the impact of high capital expenditures and potential reductions in net income margin. If TSMC manages to sustain its current net income margin, the valuation could be even higher.BING-JHEN HONG/iStock Editorial via Getty ImagesThesisTaiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd.

SummaryWhile BAC may still report $106B of unrealized losses, it is apparent that the Fed is not overly worried for now, thanks to the robust liquidity and depositors' confidence.Due to the rate hikes, the bank reported expanded NII and NIY, attributed to the increase in its interest-bearing deposits to $1.27T.The higher treasury yields may also herald the return of trading and investing activities in H2'23, with FQ2'23 only temporarily impacted by the US debt ceiling uncertainties.While credit card losses may seem elevated, investors need not fret yet, since the ratio remains well below pre-pandemic averages.With a stable ROTCE performance of 15.5% (-1.9 QoQ/ inline YoY) in FQ2'23, compared to FY2019 levels of 15.8%, we remain confident about BAC's prospects during the uncertain macroecon
