BUY $100-130 for LT holdAnalysis: - LT trend since 2012 shows ~$100 as key support level, even if support (prior resistance now support) from 2014 fails. - $100 is 67% off of the recent high of $306. Ouch! But this also means there's large upside to get back to those levels. Despite Trump admin opposition to renewables, FSLR is well positioned with US manufacturing capability, a FWB:20B backlog on current SEED_TVCODER77_ETHBTCDATA:4B in revenue. This means they could grow YoY throughout the Trump admin with just the current backlog. Also, they're profitable with 30% Net Income margins form the last year. Large commercial customers (namely, tech giants through renewables developers) are happy to continue investing billions in renewables (and to trade high capex for low opex). Investment Thesis: - Monitor this $130-135 level. If broken with conviction, we look towards $100 entry points. IMO, worst case is also $100-130 price by EOY 2026.

45$I know they have some issues with the glp1 one stuff but revenues are strong and this won't matter long term I think everyone knows that. They'll beat earnings next week and we're headed to 35 range I grabbed a bunch of cheap 45 7/18 calls along with some 40 41s. 31% short Interest right now I'm sure we can get a run up to that 35 before earnings. expect volatility both ways. Today had a premature break out ran 7% and came all the way back to negative to retest, falling below trendline will likely invalidate.

A Long-term Bullish Trend ?With an upcoming Earnings report we can observe rather uncertain future behavior. But since the trend has been bearish for a longer period of time and the price is "nearly" at the same position which was achieved for the first time in early April in 2019, we can, mostly based only on the technical analysis and Earnings report, determine quite confidently that the price is ready to rise. Important data: EPS Estimate: -$3.12 Revenue Estimate: $106 million to $166.7 million Notable developments: Cost-cutting initiative = Targeting $1.1B in reductions by 2027 By the end of 2024 $9.5 billion allocated in investments

9 Simple Ratios Every Great Investor Uses - Buffett Included!Forget the hype, headlines, or hope. These 9 financial ratios are what real investors actually use to pick winners, but... P/E? ROE? EPS? 🧐 - What are they, or better yet, WHO are they? 🤯 - How high is “too high”? - Is a low number always good, or just a trap? - Do all industries follow the same rules… or is that another myth? Buffett. Greenblatt. Graham. Lynch. They didn’t rely on vibes — they trusted fundamentals After years of relying on charts, I built a 9-point fundamentals checklist to filter stocks faster and smarter. Now I’m sharing it with real-life examples and key insights to help you spot what really makes a stock worth owning: Easy enough for new investors diving into fundamentals Sharp enough to level up seasoned pros Real enough to avoid hype …but the truth is: these numbers did flag companies like Amazon, Apple, and Nvidia before the market gave them credit. ----------------------------------------------------- ✅ Quick Reference Table Scan the table, then dive into the stories… First Pro Tip: Bookmark this. You’ll check these before every stock pick. ----------------------------------------------------- 📊 1. P/E Ratio | Price-to-Earnings What it tells you: How much you pay for each dollar of a company’s profit. Short Example: A P/E of 20 means you pay $20 for $1 of profit. High P/E? Expect big growth or risk overpaying. Strong: Between 15 and 25 Caution: Above 30 (unless fast growth) Industry Averages: - Tech: 25–40 - Utilities: 10–15 - Consumer Staples: 15–20 - Energy: 10–20 - Healthcare: 20–30 Story: In early 2023, NVIDIA’s P/E ratio hovered around 25, near the low end for tech stocks. Investors who saw this as a steal amid the AI boom were rewarded—NVIDIA’s stock made 4x by the end of 2024 as AI chip demand soared. Contrast that with Tesla in Q1 2025, when its P/E spiked above 40 with slowing sales and Tesla’s stock dropped 50% in weeks. Pro tip: A low P/E is not always good. If growth is weak or falling, it's often a trap. Example: A utility company with a P/E of 30 is probably overpriced. A tech stock with 35 might still be fair — if growth justifies it. ----------------------------------------------------- 🧠 2. PEG Ratio | Price-to-Earnings-to-Growth What it tells you: If a high P/E is worth it based on future profit growth. Whether the earnings growth justifies the price. Short Example: A PEG below 1 means you’re getting growth at a fair price. High PEG? You’re overpaying. Strong: Below 1 Caution: Above 2 Industry Averages: - Software: below 1.5 is solid - Consumer Goods: Below 2 is more realistic - Tech: Below 1 - Consumer Staples: Below 1.5 - Healthcare: Below 1.2 - Financials: Below 1.5 - Energy: Below 1.3 Story: In mid-2022, Salesforce’s PEG was 0.8 (P/E 35, forward EPS growth 45%) as cloud demand surged. Investors who spotted this steal saw the stock climb 130% by the end of 2024. Meanwhile, Peloton in 2023 had a P/E of 20 but near-zero growth (PEG above 3). Its stock cratered -50% as fitness trends faded. Story: NVIDIA’s PEG hit 0.9 in Q3 2023 (P/E 30, growth 35%) during AI hype, a steal for tech (average PEG below 1.2). PEG filters hype. A stock can look expensive until you factor in growth. ----------------------------------------------------- 🧱 3. P/B Ratio | Price-to-Book What it tells you: How much you pay compared to what the company owns (like buildings or cash). Short Example: A P/B below 1.5 means you’re paying close to the company’s asset value. High P/B? Expect strong profits or risk. Strong: Below 1.5 Caution: Below 1 + poor earnings = value trap Industry Averages: - Banks: Below 1.5 - Insurance: Below 1.3 - REITs: Use NAV (aim below 1.2) - Tech: Often ignored - Energy: Below 2 Story: In 2024, JPMorgan Chase’s P/B was 1.4, solid for banks (average below 1.5). Investors who bought enjoyed 100% gains. n 2023, Bed Bath & Beyond’s P/B fell below 1 with collapsing earnings. It looked cheap but filed for bankruptcy that year. Tip: Only use this in asset-heavy sectors like banking or real estate. ----------------------------------------------------- ⚙️ 4. ROE | Return on Equity What it tells you: How well a company turns investor money into profits. Short Example: An ROE above 15% means the company makes good money from your investment. Low ROE? Weak returns. Strong: Above 15% Caution: Below 10% unless in slow-growth industries Industry Averages: - Tech: 20–30% - Consumer Staples: 15–25% - Utilities: 8–12% - Financials: 10–15% - Healthcare: 15–20% Story: Coca-Cola (KO) has kept ROE above 35% for years, a sign of brand power and pricing strength. Eli Lilly’s (LLY) ROE stayed above 25% from 2022–2024, a healthcare leader (average 15–20%). Its weight-loss drug Mounjaro drove consistent profits, lifting the stock 150%+ in two years. Checking ROE trends helped investors spot this winner. Tip: If ROE is high but D/E is also high, be careful, it might just be leverage. ----------------------------------------------------- 💰 5. Net Margin | Profitability What it tells you: How much profit a company keeps from its sales or what % of revenue ends up as pure profit. Short Example: A 10% margin means $10 profit per $100 in sales. Low margin? Tough business or high costs. Strong: Above 10-15%+ Caution: Below 5% Industry Averages: - Software: 20–30% - Retail: 2–5% - Manufacturing: 8–12% - Consumer Staples: 10–15% - Energy: 5–10% - Healthcare: 8–15% Story: Walmart’s (WMT) 2% net margin looks tiny — but it’s expected in retail. A software firm with 5%? That’s a warning — high costs or weak pricing. In 2023, Zoom’s (ZM) net margin fell to 5% (down from 25% in 2021), well below software’s 20–30% average. Pricing pressure and competition crushed its stock quite a lot. Meanwhile, Apple’s 25% margin in 2024 (tech average 20%) remained a cash cow. Tip: Margins show whether the company owns its pricing or competes on price. ----------------------------------------------------- 💣 6. D/E Ratio | Debt-to-Equity What it tells you: How much debt a company uses compared to investor money. Short Example: A D/E below 1 means more investor cash than debt. High D/E? Risky if profits dip. Strong: Below 1 Caution: Above 2 (except REITs or utilities) Industry Averages: - Tech: 0–0.5 - Industrials: 0.5–1.5 - REITs: 1.5–2.5 (manageable due to structure) - Utilities: 1–2 - Energy: 0.5–1.5 Story: In 2024, Tesla’s D/E dropped below 0.3 (tech average 0–0.5) as it paid down debt, signaling strength despite sales dips - a massive rally afterward. Tip: Rising debt + falling profits = a storm coming. Always check both. ----------------------------------------------------- 💵 7. Free Cash Flow (FCF) What it tells you: Cash left after paying for operations and growth investments. Short Example: Apple’s $100 billion cash pile in 2024 funded stock buybacks, boosting shares. Low cash? Trouble looms. Strong: Positive and growing Caution: Negative for multiple years Sector notes: - Tech: Lots of cash (think billions) - Industrials: Up and down, check trends - REITs: Look at FFO (cash from properties), aim high - Energy: Has cash, but swings with oil prices - Healthcare: Steady cash, not too high Story: Netflix had negative FCF while scaling content. Once costs stabilized, FCF turned positive and stock re-rated sharply. Pro tip: Profits don’t mean much without real cash. FCF is often more honest. Cash is king: Companies need cash to pay bills, reduce debt, or fund growth. If FCF is falling, they might be burning through cash reserves or borrowing, which isn’t sustainable. Potential issues : This mismatch could signal problems like poor cash collection, heavy spending, or even accounting tricks to inflate profits. ----------------------------------------------------- 🚀 8. EPS Growth | Earnings Power What it tells you: How fast a company’s profits per share are growing. Short Example: EPS up 10% yearly means more profit per share, lifting stock prices. Flat EPS? No growth, no gains. Strong: Above 10% Caution: Below 5%, flat/negative for 3+ years Industry Averages: - Tech: 15–30% - Staples: 5–10% - REITs: 3–6% (via FFO growth) - Healthcare: 10–15% - Financials: 5–10% - Energy: 5–15% (cyclical) Story: In Q1 2024, NVIDIA’s forward EPS growth of 30% (tech average 20%+) fueled a rally as AI chips dominated. Checking forward estimates helped investors avoid traps like Intel, with flat EPS and a drop. Pro tip: A stock with flat EPS and no dividend? There’s no reason to own it. ----------------------------------------------------- 💵 9. Dividend Yield | Passive Income What it tells you: How much cash you get yearly from dividends per dollar invested. Short Example: A 3% yield means $3 per $100 invested. High yield? Check if it’s sustainable. Good: ~3–4% Red Flag: Above 6% with a payout ratio above 80-90% Industry Averages: - Utilities: 3–5% - REITs: 3–6% - Consumer Staples: 2–4% - Tech: 0–2% - Energy: 2–5% ----------------------------------------------------- 💡 Final Thought: How to Use All of This Top investors don’t use just one metric. They look at the whole picture: Good growth? Check PEG. Good profits? Confirm with ROE and margin. Safe balance sheet? Look at D/E and cash flow. Fair valuation? P/E + FCF Yield + P/B. Real power = Combining metrics. A company with P/E 15, PEG 0.8, ROE 20%, low debt, and positive FCF? That’s your winner. A stock with P/E 8, but no growth, high debt, and negative cash flow? That’s a trap. ----------------------------------------------------- Real-World Combos 🎯Winners: Tech Gem: P/E 20, PEG 0.8, ROE 25%, D/E 0.4, growing FCF, EPS 20%+ (e.g., NVIDIA 2023: AI-driven growth, stock soared). Energy Steal: P/E 15, P/B 1.5, FCF positive, Dividend Yield 3.5% (e.g., Chevron 2023: Cash flow king). ⚠️Traps: Value Trap: P/E 8, flat EPS, D/E 2.5, negative FCF (e.g., Peloton 2023). Overhyped Tech: P/E 50, PEG 3, Net Margin 5%, D/E 1.5 (e.g., Rivian 2024). ----------------------------------------------------- 🚀 Share your own combos!

This anticipated growth is largely driven by Alphabet's strategic investments in artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud computing, which have bolstered its core businesses, including Google Search and YouTube . Resilience Amid Tariff Concerns While recent U.S. tariffs have disrupted global supply chains, particularly affecting hardware-dependent sectors, Alphabet's business model is predominantly digital and service-oriented.

Analysts from Citi and Morgan Stanley have expressed confidence in Alphabet's ability to navigate macroeconomic challenges, citing the company's AI-driven innovations as key growth drivers.​ General analyst Confidence and Stock Performance Despite a 20% decline in Alphabet's stock value earlier in 2025, the company's strong fundamentals have led to bullish sentiments among analysts. Price targets have been set as high as $195, suggesting a potential upside of up to 29% from recent levels . The company's continued focus on AI and cloud services positions it well for sustained growth, even amidst global economic uncertainties.​ In summary, Alphabet's upcoming earnings call is expected to highlight the company's robust performance and resilience, underscoring its ability to thrive despite external economic pressures. 📌 Trade Plan 📈 Entry: 155.41 ✅ Target: 181.30 ❌ SL: 121 We are looking for +-20% increase in the upcoming days/weeks!

TSM great potential before earnings call? Value to be collected!Hi guys we would be taking a look into our analysis for TSM!TSMC (TSM) Stock: Positioned for Strong Growth Despite Tariff Pressures - Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), the world’s leading contract chipmaker, continues to shine as a long-term winner in the semiconductor space, even amid renewed trade tensions and potential tariffs. 1. Resilience Amid Tariffs and Trade Tensions While the U.S. has recently introduced or hinted at higher tariffs on tech-related imports from China, TSMC stands out due to its strategic positioning. As a Taiwan-based company with increasing investments in the U.S., including a major Arizona facility, TSMC is well-insulated from the harshest tariff implications. In fact, the shift toward U.S. domestic chip production could boost TSMC's presence and government support, solidifying its role in global supply chains. 2. Unmatched Technological Leadership TSMC is years ahead of competitors in cutting-edge semiconductor manufacturing, particularly in advanced nodes like 3nm and 2nm chips. This technology edge secures high-value contracts with top-tier clients like Apple, NVIDIA, and AMD, ensuring a steady and growing revenue stream. 3. Surging Demand for AI and High-Performance Computing With the global explosion of demand for AI infrastructure, data centers, and high-performance computing, TSMC is perfectly positioned. It is the go-to foundry for the most advanced AI chips, giving it a critical role in powering the next generation of tech innovation. 4. Strategic Global Expansion TSMC’s global expansion—including new plants in the U.S., Japan, and Germany—reduces geopolitical risks and enhances its ability to serve major markets locally. These moves also align with government incentives and support from the CHIPS Act and similar programs. Outlook: TSMC is not only weathering the global trade climate—it’s thriving. Its dominant market share, world-class technology, and expanding global footprint give it a strong competitive moat. With rising AI demand and the shift toward local production, TSM is set to benefit on multiple fronts. TSM stock remains a high-conviction play for investors looking to capture the future of tech. TSMC has consistently delivered impressive financial results, with the company surpassing analyst expectations in the past 12 consecutive quarters. For instance, in the fourth quarter of 2024, TSMC reported earnings per share (EPS) of $2.24, exceeding the consensus estimate of $2.16. This track record underscores the company's robust operational efficiency and market demand for its advanced semiconductor solutions. Upcoming Earnings Call Investors are anticipating TSMC's next earnings call scheduled for Thursday, April 17, 2025, before the market opens. Analysts expect the company to report an EPS of $2.02 for the first quarter of 2025. Given TSMC's history of exceeding expectations, there is optimism that the company will continue its trend of strong financial performance. EPS beat estimates 16 times in 17 quarters!!!!! We are targeting approximetly 18% increase!!! 📌 Trade Plan 📈 Entry: 152 ✅ Target 183 ❌ SL: 128

Is $GERN a stock for "Strong Holders"?Or is it just another stock whose value will be wiped out in the next few quarters, and the company will simply lose its listing on the Nasdaq? Investors are likely to get an answer to this question today, before the market opens, when NASDAQ:GERN reports its quarterly earnings. The company has an approved drug and has already begun commercialization, with a promising start. Last quarter, the company generated $28 million in revenue, and this quarter, revenue is expected to reach $61.8 million. The company has already achieved positive gross margins, and I expect them to improve significantly from the current 27% in the last quarter. Operating expenses are close to $30 million per quarter, so we can expect a quick path to operating profitability. Invested capital is around $135 million, which means that with an operating profit of $10 million per quarter, we could see interesting returns on invested capital. The company is led by John A. Scarlett, M.D., who previously worked at NASDAQ:CTMX for six years, during which the company lost about 90% of its value. There is some positive news regarding European approval: "The Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use of the European Medicines Agency has issued a positive opinion." A decision is expected in the coming months, if not days, which should serve as a strong catalyst for the stock price. The market valuation has dropped to $1.4 billion, despite having an FDA-approved drug in the U.S. Cash reserves will be important as they indicate how much time the company has to develop without diluting its capital. In the last report, cash and short-term investments totaled $339 million, and on November 7, the company announced securing $250 million in funding, with the potential to increase it to $375 million. As a result, the company has $589 million in cash reserves minus operating cash flow. How much will remain in the coffers? The company should have enough cash for more than 12 months of successful operations, operational efficiency is improving, we are awaiting European approval, and only the quality of management raises doubts. But do these doubts really hold weight given the current trajectory? There are only a few hours left until the earnings report is released. Let's see what awaits us.

In comparison, the S&P 500 has declined 10.4%. Technical Analysis BlackRock rebounded from a strong support zone near $780.
