MARA Marathon Digital Holdings A Crypto Mining Stock to Watch Marathon Digital Holdings, Inc. ( NASDAQ:MARA ) “Bitcoin at $96K? It’s like Monopoly money growing into something real—fueling wealth and lifting stocks like $MARA. Let’s break down the crypto miner making waves in this dynamic market.” After Bitcoin ( CRYPTOCAP:BTC ) surged to $96,000, Marathon Digital Holdings ( NASDAQ:MARA ) has positioned itself as a significant player in the crypto ecosystem. For investors, NASDAQ:MARA represents a unique opportunity tied directly to Bitcoin’s price movements and the operational efficiencies of crypto mining. Let’s dive into the details to evaluate its potential. Current Market Data Stock Price: Around $22.73 Market Cap: Approximately $4.65 billion Earnings Per Share (EPS): -$0.42 (last quarter) At first glance, NASDAQ:MARA ’s financial metrics might raise eyebrows. A negative EPS highlights the ongoing challenges of profitability in the volatile crypto mining industry. However, its substantial Bitcoin reserves tell a different story. Bitcoin Holdings: A Key Asset Marathon Digital holds 40,435 BTC, valued at approximately $3.88 billion at the current Bitcoin price of $96,000. This means that 83% of its market cap is backed by Bitcoin holdings alone. Such a significant asset base provides a unique valuation anchor in an otherwise speculative industry. Book Value Breakdown Total Bitcoin Value: ~$3.88 billion Estimated Shares Outstanding: ~204.6 million Book Value Per Share: ~$19.00 Compared to its stock price of ~$22.73, this suggests NASDAQ:MARA is trading close to its asset-backed value, making it an intriguing option for Bitcoin bulls. Valuation Metrics Traditional valuation methods struggle with companies like NASDAQ:MARA , given the negative EPS and the speculative nature of the crypto market. However, using a forward-looking EPS of $1.22 (an optimistic assumption), we can estimate: Graham Number: At a stock price of ~$22.73, NASDAQ:MARA appears fairly valued by this metric, though this assumes optimistic future earnings and stability in Bitcoin prices. Operational Highlights BTC Yield Growth: Marathon has reported steady improvements in Bitcoin yield, signaling operational success and increased mining efficiency. Renewable Energy Investments: Recent moves to secure wind farms and other renewable energy sources could reduce mining costs and enhance profitability. Scalability: With a solid foundation and operational upgrades, NASDAQ:MARA is well-positioned to benefit from further Bitcoin price increases. Risks and Volatility Crypto Dependency: NASDAQ:MARA ’s performance is tightly coupled with Bitcoin’s price. While this offers significant upside during bull markets, it exposes the stock to extreme downside risk in bear markets. Regulatory Uncertainty: Potential changes in crypto regulations could impact mining operations and profitability. Operational Costs: Fluctuations in energy prices and mining difficulty could strain margins. Buffett’s Perspective: Speculation vs. Strategy Warren Buffett famously avoids speculative assets like Bitcoin, and by extension, Bitcoin-focused companies. However, Marathon’s strategic moves—such as renewable energy investments—showcase a long-term vision that could appeal to more risk-tolerant investors. Conclusion: Is NASDAQ:MARA a Buy? NASDAQ:MARA ’s substantial Bitcoin reserves and operational improvements make it a compelling choice for investors who believe in Bitcoin’s continued growth. At a price of ~$22.73, the stock seems fairly valued relative to its book value and intrinsic potential. However, investing in NASDAQ:MARA requires: A strong belief in Bitcoin’s future. A high tolerance for crypto market volatility. An understanding of the risks tied to mining operations and regulatory changes. For those ready to embrace the volatility, NASDAQ:MARA offers an opportunity to ride the crypto wave with a company building for the future.

GNA Axles Limited Going Towards Its All TIME HIGH's NSE:GNA GNA Axles is engaged in the Business of manufactures auto components for the four-wheeler industry, primary product being Rear Axles, Shafts, Spindles & other Automobiles Components for sale in domestic and foreign market. .................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................. Key strengths Extensive experience of promoters/management and long track record of operations GNA was promoted by Late Rachhpall Singh and his brother Gursaran Singh, the latter being the company’s current managing director with around five decades of industry experience. His son, Ranbir Singh, and other family members are also involved in the company’s day-to-day business activities. The company directors are assisted by a team of professionals who are highly experienced in their respective domains. Being established in 1946, the GNA group, which also includes GNA Gears Limited, has a long track record of operations. ............................................................................... Diversified revenue stream across product segments and geographies The company supplies its products to varied segments of the automotive industry, including commercial vehicles (CV or the onhighway segment), tractors, farm equipment, and earth moving equipment (all three being part of the off-road segment). The company derives significant income from export of its products to the US, Europe, Asia Pacific (Japan and China among others), Mexico, Brazil, and so forth, with exports constituting around 53% of its total operating income (TOI) in FY23 (refers to April 1 to March 31) . The company is a Tier-1 vendor for its supplies in domestic off-road segment, while in the exports markets, it supplies axles and spindles to larger and more established Tier-1 vendors. ................................................................................ Long and established relationship with customers The GNA group has been operating in the auto component industry since 1946, thus having built time-tested relationship with customers – with some ever since the commencement of its operations. Besides, it has been supplying to some of its export customers since 2000. GNA markets its products through the common group marketing network catering a whole range of products, including axles, gears, and shafts under one roof. The long and established relationship with customers provides revenue stability to the company, subject to overall industry demand scenario. .................................................................................... Reputed, though concentrated customer base While GNA faces customer concentration with its top-5 and top-10 customers accounting for around 64% and around 80% of its total gross sales in FY23, the risk is largely mitigated as the top revenue contributors are well-established players and enjoy strong position in the industry. GNA is the main supplier of axle shafts to most of the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that it supplies to, and by virtue of its long-standing relationships with the customers, the company has a strong market position. For some of its export customers, the supplies are made by GNA for their plants in various countries, thereby mitigating the risk arising from slowdown in one geographical location. ......................................................................... Comfortable scale of operations with largely steady margins In FY24, the company achieved TOI of ₹1,508.67 crore compared to a TOI of ₹1,582.93 crore in FY23 driven by moderation in price realisations owing to weak tractor sales in the domestic market. The profit before interest, lease rentals, depreciation and taxation (PBILDT) margin marginally declined to 13.24% in FY24 (PY: 14.70%). The profit after tax (PAT) margins declined to 6.63% in FY24 from 8.22% in FY23. ....................................................................................... Comfortable financial risk profile The company’s capital structure remained comfortable with long-term debt-to equity and overall gearing ratios of 0.04x and 0.24x, as on March 31, 2024, respectively (PY: 0.07x and 0.28x, respectively). The same improved mainly due to reduction in debt and accretion of profits to the net worth. The company has low reliance on working capital borrowings as it only avails the pre-shipment credit for exports and substantial portion of its inherently high working capital requirements are funded by internal accruals. The interest coverage ratio remained healthy at 17.3x in FY24 (PY: 21.22x) due to healthy profitability and low interest costs on foreign currency borrowings. The company’s total debt to PBILDT stood comfortable at 0.95 as on March 21, 2024 (PY: 0.87x).

Study of Nifty since it's inception for long term view/Outlook. Nifty has closed at highest monthly closing. It is almost at all time high. Now what the future holds for investors? It is the right time to look at All Time Chart of Nifty. This will help us in taking a long term view of Nifty we decided to look at the all time channel of the same since it's inception in 1991. This research has given three indications. The long term channel is the best way to get predict the Nifty as it filters out all noise. The cut off date we have indicated is January 2028. This study and analysis has shown an interesting result which indicates that the best case scenario for Nifty by 2028 can be 49K+ levels. (If we continue to grow at the same rate along with the same trendline). In case of stutter the moderate case scenario seems to be that we can reach 30K+ levels. The worst case scenario as of now seems to be that we remain at similar levels of 23K+. This can happen in case of a major global catastrophe or some internal disruption in India. (Both are worst case scenarios). The reason we might not fall below these levels is that we have a strong rule of law, India as of now is not aligned to any global power and has become leader of the Global south so in case of conflict we might not grow but we by all means will not fall below a certain level. Since 2005 Nifty has gone below Mid channel support only on two occasions once in sub prime crisis in 2008 and once during Covid 19 outbreak. Even if we fall below Mid channel support we mostly will bounce back very strongly. Thus the indications of all time chart of Nifty seem that India will remains a bull run for a long long time to come. If we believe the current trend within this decade that is before 2030 Nifty touching or crossing 50K also remains a fair possibility. So invest in equity, Educate yourself, learn Techno-funda analysis. Reading The Happy Candles Way To Wealth creation my book which is available on Amazon in Paperback and Kindle version can be a good beginning for you. All the best! Happy Investing.

Strengths: Established market position in the temperature-controlled logistics industry: Snowman is the largest provider in the highly fragmented temperature-controlled warehousing, transportation and logistics industry in India. The company provides quality service and end-to-end solutions to customers in the temperature-controlled industry, thereby resulting in repeat orders and long-term contracts providing around 80% revenue visibility. As on March 31, 2023, the company had warehousing capacity of 1,35,552 pallets across 44 warehouses in 18 cities. It also had 239 refeer vehicles (refrigerated trucks) providing last-mile, inter-city distribution services through a consignment agency model.

Furthermore, Snowman is well established amongst the leading organised players, providing temperature-controlled services in India

DOGE | Long Term Profits PlanHello traders! At this very moment, there's a lot of uncertainty, and we can't know for sure what's going to happen exactly, so having a plan of action is the best idea. Plan ahead so you know what to expect and are ready to act on it when the moment arrives. So here's my plan: 1) DOGE is stuck in a box; clearly, we can pinpoint support and resistance on the monthly timeframe. This indicates the asset is actually in balanced mode, so usually no action should be taken. However, I've marked certain demand zones to buy, and if, for whatever reason, it gets pierced through, you'll also know where the price is most likely to land next. Confirmations: Wait for the price to hit the areas marked; be patient, and you'll get rewarded accordingly. Once price hits the zones, wait for a candlestick and a reversal pattern on the lower timeframes to time your entry smoothly. 2) TARGETS: Whichever demand zone price hits, make sure your target is the closest supply zone. Don't expect the price to hit the moon just because. That's just not going to happen, and on the contrary, there are massive amounts of sell trade limit orders sitting on those supply zones, so be smarter and take profit before the sell-off gets activated. This idea is to spot for the long term. This asset is still in balanced mode; there hasn't been a breakout of the range yet. However, it's worth noting that as of now, price might just come down into a very important demand zone, giving an extremely great opportunity to enter and hold for the bullrun next year. I hope you find it useful and are able to take advantage of this idea. Kina Tip of the Day: Take profits partially even when they don't seem much because, in the long run, they will grow in a balanced way with the rest of the portfolio. Keep it shiny ⭐ Kina, The Girly Trader
