EverQuote aims to change that with its online marketplace where consumers can quickly and easily get price policies from leading insurance providers.

By comparison, total ad and distribution spending for the insurance industry, including digital spending, is only forecast to grow by 4% annually through 2024. EverQuote is catering to the sweet spot of insurance industry growth.</p><p>It's also a company that'sbeen transitioning to new verticals. Even though auto insurance has always been its marketplace bread-and-butter, it's added home, renters, health, and life insurance options in recent years. These new verticals are growing at a much faster clip than traditional auto policies.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f46d76c781cc47d68033914c1c794a63\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</p><p>Jushi Holdings: Implied upside of 60%</p><p>Just in case you didn't catch the emphasis the first time around, Wall Street is really upbeat on most U.S.marijuana stocksover the next 12 months. Small-cap MSO<b>Jushi Holdings</b>(OTC:JUSHF)is no exception. If Jushi does hit Wall Street's price target, it'll be rewarding its shareholders with a gain of 60%.</p><p>Whereas Harvest Health is focusing on four markets, Jushi isprimarily honed in on three: Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Virginia. Though it has a presence in around a half-dozen states, this trio limits how it assigns retail licenses. Pennsylvania and Illinois have capped the number of allowed dispensaries, whereas Virginia assigns licenses by jurisdiction. The takeaway is that Jushi is going to have a solid opportunity to build up its business in these states while facing minimal competition.</p><p>This is a company that hasn't been afraid to put its capital to work, either. It's made a host of acquisitions since the year began, including expanding its retail or cultivation footprint in Massachusetts, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and California.</p><p>If you're looking for one more catalyst, consider that executives and insiders contributed approximately $45 million of the first $250 million in capital raised. When the interests of insiders and shareholders align, we often see good things happen.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b9ff45f54cb49bde34240fc05af21a38\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</p><p>Inovio Pharmaceuticals: Implied upside of 128%</p><p>Finally, clinical-stagebiotech stock<b>Inovio Pharmaceuticals</b>(NASDAQ:INO)is believed to offer significant upside. Based on a 12-month price target of $15.63, Inovio's shares could more than double. But this one instance where I strongly disagree with Wall Street.</p><p>For much of the past year, Inovio has flown higher on the expectation that it would be among the frontrunners to develop a COVID-19 vaccine. But despite flying though phase 1 studies, Inovio encountered a partial clinical hold in phase 2/3 trials in the United States. This past week, the company announced that its phase 3 study for INO-4800 as a treatment for COVID-19 would take place outside the U.S., and that the U.S. Defense Department would cease funding the company's late-stage studies for INO-4800.</p><p>There are reallytwo issues at hand here. First, Inovio has fallen so far behind its peers due to the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) partial clinical hold that it may not be able to carve out a meaningful percentage of global COVID-19 vaccine sales, even if INO-4800 is successful in clinical studies.</p><p>Secondly, Inovio has nothing to show for itself after more than four decades. In spite of plenty of ongoing research, none of the company's experimental treatments have ever been approved by the FDA. That's a pretty glaring red flag.</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>5 Small-Cap Stocks With 60% to 140% Upside, According to Wall Street</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\">\n5 Small-Cap Stocks With 60% to 140% Upside, According to Wall Street\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-27 19:05 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/27/5-small-cap-stocks-60-to-140-upside-wall-street/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>For more than a year, investors have been spoiled by an epic rally on Wall Street.
