GameStop was the most overbought stock I’ve ever seen during its spike in January. Obviously, that needed to be worked off, but the good news is that weekly momentum is now testing centerline support.

This one is risky, to say the least, so don’t go mortgaging your housing again to HODL this one. I see real potential for a rally here, but let’s take a look at the fundamentals as well.</p>\n<p>A much improved outlook</p>\n<p>It is no secret that GameStop’s core business has been under siege for years; that’s why it was a $4 stock before it became the mother of all short squeezes. However, today’s GameStop is nothing like it was a year ago, as stores have been closed and consolidated, the company has invested in fulfillment capabilities like it never had before, and the balance sheet is massively improved. The fundamental outlook isn’t what you’d call a clear path to riches, but at this stage of the turnaround, I see GameStop as doing what is necessary to help the business grow, and stay around for a long time to come.</p>\n<p>Bears on GameStop will say it has no future and is going to zero, and that may prove to be the case. But for a company with more than a billion dollars of net cash, that seems extremely unlikely. What seems&nbsp;<i>more</i>&nbsp;likely is that GameStop has the cash it needs to compete in a digitally-dominated world of gaming, which is something that wasn’t the case before.</p>\n<p>The company’s latest&nbsp;earnings&nbsp;showed similar characteristics to other earnings reports, in that, the company has wild swings in revenue based upon hardware releases, in particular. Revenue was up 26% year-over-year despite the store base being smaller. GameStop is also continuing to boost its ability to fulfill digital sales, which it absolutely must do in order to remain relevant.</p>\n<p>However, it is still quite reliant upon hardware sales to drive the top line, as the software business remains a slow grower. Collectibles revenue is volatile as well, and is by far the smallest revenue contributor. GameStop is working on ways to diversify away from hardware sales, but it is still a big risk for the bulls as of now. That’s something to keep in mind if you’re thinking of going long.</p>\n<p>Another risk is margins, as GameStop has struggled mightily in recent years with profitability. Gross margins in the last quarter were just 27.1% of revenue, owed to the commoditized nature of most of GameStop’s revenue. GameStop needs revenue diversification to keep the top line moving higher, but it also needs it to help boost margins. Retailers generally cannot be profitable with sub-30% gross margins, and I’m not sure GameStop is an exception to that.</p>\n<p>In fact, SG&amp;A costs in the last quarter were 31.5% of revenue, meaning operating margin was negative once again. GameStop’s plan of attack on profitability is to improve SG&amp;A costs with a rationalized store base, but also to boost gross margins through different ways of capturing revenue. To be clear, it will need both to succeed. To me, this is the biggest risk of owning GameStop at this point, and it’s a big one. But if the company can execute, the rewards could be substantial.</p>\n<p>One point on revenue is that the light appears to be at the end of the tunnel.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d82d960cf719de5367b59bf8447bb9d5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"289\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source:Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p>Revisions have been quite bullish for about half a year at this point, and while we shouldn’t expect estimates to rise to prior levels anytime soon, this sort of move higher in estimates is quite bullish. Analysts are saying the bottom was found earlier this year and that the transformation is working. I like stocks with rising revenue estimates, and in particular, turnaround stories. It means the worst is behind us, and in GameStop’s case, it certainly looks that way to me.</p>\n<p>That should help with the margin picture, which we can see below with quarterly gross margin and operating margin depicted for the past few years.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d0ab3d33732e19ac3dbe91488be402da\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"169\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: TIKR.com</span></p>\n<p>GameStop used to post decent operating profit numbers, but it has been slow-going recently. We need to see revenue rise in order to leverage down SG&amp;A costs, and eventually see those black bars go positive. I think it will happen, but as I said, this is a big risk of owning GameStop.</p>\n<p>I mentioned earlier that GameStop’s balance sheet is a big deal, and I don’t think that can be overstated. Below, we have net debt in millions of dollars to see what I’m on about.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0865b52e3d390b3aac0a99f99392af23\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"163\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: TIKR.com</span></p>\n<p>The company was operating with more debt than it could handle in recent years given declining profitability. However, the massive capital raises have put the balance sheet right, and GameStop now has cash and equivalents of more than $1.7 billion, or just over $1 billion on a net basis. This means that not only can GameStop survive indefinitely – which makes the argument of GameStop being a zero null and void – but it has all the cash it could want to invest in fulfillment, sourcing, or whatever else it fancies.</p>\n<p>Turnaround stories often fail because the cash runs out; investments cannot be made to become competitive again, and the companies fail. GameStop does not have that problem, and it won’t for a very long time to come, even if it continues to lose money. In essence, GameStop has a virtually unlimited lifespan at this point because of how much cash it has raised, and could raise again given its high share price.</p>\n<p>GME stock valuation is a tough exercise</p>\n<p>Obviously, we cannot use P/E or other traditional valuation techniques on GameStop because it is unprofitable. However, I do think price-to-sales is a fair way to look at it, so let’s get some context on the current valuation.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d76a1aebaccf9a97d60bd8c6221bad4a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"190\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: TIKR.com</span></p>\n<p>We’re at 2.1X forward sales today, which is about average since the year began. GameStop peaked at 4.1X forward sales, and the last few times it has hit 2X sales, the stock rallied. Does that guarantee it will happen again? Absolutely not. But with the valuation at the point where we’ve seen rallies in the past, along with the technical picture also saying we’re at the point where a rally might be starting, the confluence of these events is too much to ignore.</p>\n<p>Just to close this out, remember GameStop is a very risky stock. Positions should be small and monitored closely. There are numerous risks to owning GameStop, which I’ve laid out above, but I also see cause for optimism. I don’t personally mess around with meme stocks, but GameStop isn’t a meme stock; it’s just a company with a lot of cash and a new strategy that looks like it is on the verge of a rally.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","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>It Is Finally Time To Buy GameStop Stock</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\">\nIt Is Finally Time To Buy GameStop Stock\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-10-12 09:11 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4459329-gamestop-stock-it-is-finally-time-to-buy><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nGameStop looks like it is trying to form a bottom from which to rally.\nThe balance sheet is a huge advantage at this point.\nGME is not going to zero, and I think the bias is to the upside.\n\nI...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4459329-gamestop-stock-it-is-finally-time-to-buy\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GME":"游戏驿站"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4459329-gamestop-stock-it-is-finally-time-to-buy","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1158847869","content_text":"Summary\n\nGameStop looks like it is trying to form a bottom from which to rally.\nThe balance sheet is a huge advantage at this point.\nGME is not going to zero, and I think the bias is to the upside.\n\nI don’t recall any stock in my lifetime that received as much attention as gaming retailer GameStop(GME) did in early 2021.

But if the company can execute, the rewards could be substantial.\nOne point on revenue is that the light appears to be at the end of the tunnel.\nSource:Seeking Alpha\nRevisions have been quite bullish for about half a year at this point, and while we shouldn’t expect estimates to rise to prior levels anytime soon, this sort of move higher in estimates is quite bullish. Analysts are saying the bottom was found earlier this year and that the transformation is working. I like stocks with rising revenue estimates, and in particular, turnaround stories. It means the worst is behind us, and in GameStop’s case, it certainly looks that way to me.\nThat should help with the margin picture, which we can see below with quarterly gross margin and operating margin depicted for the past few years.\nSource: TIKR.com\nGameStop used to post decent operating profit numbers, but it has been slow-going recently. We need to see revenue rise in order to leverage down SG&A costs, and eventually see those black bars go positive. I think it will happen, but as I said, this is a big risk of owning GameStop.\nI mentioned earlier that GameStop’s balance sheet is a big deal, and I don’t think that can be overstated. Below, we have net debt in millions of dollars to see what I’m on about.\nSource: TIKR.com\nThe company was operating with more debt than it could handle in recent years given declining profitability. However, the massive capital raises have put the balance sheet right, and GameStop now has cash and equivalents of more than $1.7 billion, or just over $1 billion on a net basis. This means that not only can GameStop survive indefinitely – which makes the argument of GameStop being a zero null and void – but it has all the cash it could want to invest in fulfillment, sourcing, or whatever else it fancies.\nTurnaround stories often fail because the cash runs out; investments cannot be made to become competitive again, and the companies fail. GameStop does not have that problem, and it won’t for a very long time to come, even if it continues to lose money. In essence, GameStop has a virtually unlimited lifespan at this point because of how much cash it has raised, and could raise again given its high share price.\nGME stock valuation is a tough exercise\nObviously, we cannot use P/E or other traditional valuation techniques on GameStop because it is unprofitable. However, I do think price-to-sales is a fair way to look at it, so let’s get some context on the current valuation.\nSource: TIKR.com\nWe’re at 2.1X forward sales today, which is about average since the year began. GameStop peaked at 4.1X forward sales, and the last few times it has hit 2X sales, the stock rallied. Does that guarantee it will happen again? Absolutely not. But with the valuation at the point where we’ve seen rallies in the past, along with the technical picture also saying we’re at the point where a rally might be starting, the confluence of these events is too much to ignore.\nJust to close this out, remember GameStop is a very risky stock. Positions should be small and monitored closely. There are numerous risks to owning GameStop, which I’ve laid out above, but I also see cause for optimism. I don’t personally mess around with meme stocks, but GameStop isn’t a meme stock; it’s just a company with a lot of cash and a new strategy that looks like it is on the verge of a rally.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":689,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":167719537,"gmtCreate":1624284513929,"gmtModify":1634008402721,"author":{"id":"3575458200328114","authorId":"3575458200328114","authorIdStr":"3575458200328114","name":"Aragosta","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7f529718664751aae824e4ca849bd39d","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575458200328114"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"GameStop gonna drop?&nbsp;Then short it.&nbsp;","listText":"GameStop gonna drop?&nbsp;Then short it.&nbsp;","text":"GameStop gonna drop?

Despite navigating its way through Black Monday in 1987, the dot-com bubble, the Great Recession, and more recently the coronavirus crash, the average annual total return for the benchmark <b>S&amp;P 500</b> since 1980, including dividends, is north of 11%.</p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, we see this optimism readily apparent in Wall Street's ratings on stocks. According to <b>FactSet</b>, more than half of all stocks carry a consensus buy rating, 38% have the equivalent of a hold rating, and just 7% are rated as sells. Yet, history shows that far more than 7% of stocks will eventually head lower.</p>\n<p>Based on Wall Street's consensus price targets, the following five ultra-popular stocks are all expected to lose value over the coming 12 months.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b04ade705354c4825038c4dfcd0187d9\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Palantir Technologies: Implied downside of 12%</h3>\n<p>Since its direct listing in late September 2020, data-mining company <b>Palantir Technologies</b> (NYSE:PLTR) has been a favorite among growth and retail investors. But if Wall Street's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-year consensus price target proves accurate, Palantir will head in reverse by up to 12%.</p>\n<p>The likeliest reason Wall Street is tempering expectations on Palantir is valuation. Specifically, Palantir ended June 17 with a market cap of nearly $48 billion, but is on track to bring in perhaps $1.5 billion in full-year sales in 2021. That's a multiple of about 32 times sales. Even if Palantir continues to grow its top-line at 30% annually, it could take years for this price-to-sales multiple to come down to anywhere close to the average for cloud stocks.</p>\n<p>Another possible concern is the growth potential for its government-focused Gotham platform. Big government contract wins in the U.S. have been primarily responsible for Palantir's exceptional growth rate. However, there remains an outside chance that President Joe Biden may curb funding to some of the federal agencies that employ Palantir's services.</p>\n<p>Over the long run, I'm optimistic and believe Palantir's platform is unlike anything else available. But tempering near-term expectations given its valuation premium may be warranted.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a38605bee8e62f3e8aa414fa24278e7e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Moderna: Implied downside of 11%</h3>\n<p>Biotech stock <b>Moderna</b> (NASDAQ:MRNA) is arguably the biggest beneficiary of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. It's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of only three drugmakers to currently have their COVID-19 vaccine approved on an emergency-use authorization (EUA) basis in the United States. But if Wall Street's consensus 12-month price target is correct, it's stock is also on its way to a double-digit decline.</p>\n<p>Why the lack of love from Wall Street? The answer looks to be analysts looking to the future. While Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine is a mainstay in the U.S., and it's likely to play a clear role in other markets, time might prove the company's enemy. Over time, new vaccines are expected to come onto the scene, which'll eat away at Moderna's potential pool of patients.</p>\n<p>The other worry is that no one is exactly certain how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last. If it's a year, Moderna is unlikely to be the only drugmaker supplying booster shots. Meanwhile, if it's longer than a year, it means reduced sales opportunities for the company.</p>\n<p>Based solely on Wall Street's earnings per share consensus in 2021 and 2022, Moderna appears reasonably priced. But with the company staring down a potentially significant haircut in revenue next year as new drugmakers enter the space, caution is advised.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/07841e6a8173146a0fbfddf95a0f1ccb\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>GameStop: Implied downside of 71%</h3>\n<p>This will probably come as a shock to no one, but Reddit favorite <b>GameStop</b> (NYSE:GME) is fully expected to fall flat on its face. Even though Wall Street's consensus price target for the company has quintupled in recent months, it <i>still</i> implies up to 71% downside over the next year.</p>\n<p>The biggest issue for GameStop is that its valuation has completely detached from its underlying fundamentals. While it's not uncommon for stocks to trade on emotion for short periods of time, operating performance is what always dictates the long-term movement in the share price of a stock. When it comes to operating performance, GameStop has been a dud.</p>\n<p>Although the company's first-quarter fiscal results highlighted a 25% net sales increase from the prior-year period, total sales for the company have been falling precipitously for years. That's because video game retailer GameStop recognized the shift to digital gaming too late, and it's now stuck with its massive portfolio of brick-and-mortar gaming stores. Even though e-commerce sales have been a bright spot for the company, slashing costs and closing stores remains its No. 1 priority.</p>\n<p>With sufficient cash, bankruptcy isn't a concern for GameStop. But without any true top-line growth and the company still losing money, it's an impossible sell at its current price tag.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c7ff785aa0040a5565d474390f58b47a\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"457\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Ocugen: Implied downside of 18%</h3>\n<p>Volatile clinical-stage biotech stock <b>Ocugen</b> (NASDAQ:OCGN) may also be in for an unpleasant next 12 months. The company behind an experimental COVID-19 vaccine (Covaxin) and a trio of internally developed eye-blindness candidates is expected to shed 18% of its value, if Wall Street's consensus price target is correct.</p>\n<p>Arguably the biggest issue for Ocugen is the clinical update the company issued on June 10 concerning Covaxin. Even though partner Bharat Biotech led a large clinical study in India that yielded an overall efficacy of 78%, along with 100% efficacy in preventing severe forms of COVID-19, Ocugen announced on June 10 that it would forgo seeking an EUA in the U.S. and would instead file for a biologics license application. In other words, Ocugen's path to a quick emergency approval in the U.S. just flew out the window.</p>\n<p>What's more, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's requested additional information and data on Covaxin. This is a fancy of saying that Ocugen will very likely have to run a clinical study in the U.S. prior to submitting Covaxin for approval. That means added costs and an even longer wait before Ocugen has a chance to penetrate the lucrative U.S. market.</p>\n<p>Though it's impossible to predict how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last, Ocugen's chances of being a significant player in the U.S. COVID-19 vaccine space are dwindling.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/91f6037829ea3fb0ae1cae0b95d8d11e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>NVIDIA: Implied downside of 3%</h3>\n<p>Don't adjust your computer, laptop, or smartphone screens -- that really says <b>NVIDIA</b> (NASDAQ:NVDA). Following its incredible run higher (NVIDIA has doubled over the past year), graphics processing unit giant NVIDIA closed 3% above Wall Street's consensus price target, as of June 17.</p>\n<p>One reason for tempered expectations at this point has to be valuation. Even with NVIDIA crushing expectations and seeing strong PC gaming demand, sales growth is expected to slow from an estimated 49% in fiscal 2022 to a high single digit percentage in each of the next two fiscal years. In fact, the company closed at nearly 20 times projected sales for the current fiscal year. That's a bit optimistic given an expected sales growth slowdown.</p>\n<p>Perhaps the other reason Wall Street expects NVIDIA to go sideways is the company's cryptocurrency mining chip segment. While sales of crypto chips could hit $400 million in the current quarter, demand is entirely dependent on the hype surrounding digital currencies and the favorability of technical charts. Crypto is just as well known for its long bear markets as it is for the big gains it's delivered over the past decade.

Despite navigating its way through Black Monday in 1987, the dot-com bubble, the Great Recession, and more recently the coronavirus crash, the average annual total return for the benchmark S&P 500 since 1980, including dividends, is north of 11%.\nNot surprisingly, we see this optimism readily apparent in Wall Street's ratings on stocks. According to FactSet, more than half of all stocks carry a consensus buy rating, 38% have the equivalent of a hold rating, and just 7% are rated as sells. Yet, history shows that far more than 7% of stocks will eventually head lower.\nBased on Wall Street's consensus price targets, the following five ultra-popular stocks are all expected to lose value over the coming 12 months.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nPalantir Technologies: Implied downside of 12%\nSince its direct listing in late September 2020, data-mining company Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) has been a favorite among growth and retail investors. But if Wall Street's one-year consensus price target proves accurate, Palantir will head in reverse by up to 12%.\nThe likeliest reason Wall Street is tempering expectations on Palantir is valuation. Specifically, Palantir ended June 17 with a market cap of nearly $48 billion, but is on track to bring in perhaps $1.5 billion in full-year sales in 2021. That's a multiple of about 32 times sales. Even if Palantir continues to grow its top-line at 30% annually, it could take years for this price-to-sales multiple to come down to anywhere close to the average for cloud stocks.\nAnother possible concern is the growth potential for its government-focused Gotham platform. Big government contract wins in the U.S. have been primarily responsible for Palantir's exceptional growth rate. However, there remains an outside chance that President Joe Biden may curb funding to some of the federal agencies that employ Palantir's services.\nOver the long run, I'm optimistic and believe Palantir's platform is unlike anything else available. But tempering near-term expectations given its valuation premium may be warranted.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nModerna: Implied downside of 11%\nBiotech stock Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) is arguably the biggest beneficiary of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. It's one of only three drugmakers to currently have their COVID-19 vaccine approved on an emergency-use authorization (EUA) basis in the United States. But if Wall Street's consensus 12-month price target is correct, it's stock is also on its way to a double-digit decline.\nWhy the lack of love from Wall Street? The answer looks to be analysts looking to the future. While Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine is a mainstay in the U.S., and it's likely to play a clear role in other markets, time might prove the company's enemy. Over time, new vaccines are expected to come onto the scene, which'll eat away at Moderna's potential pool of patients.\nThe other worry is that no one is exactly certain how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last. If it's a year, Moderna is unlikely to be the only drugmaker supplying booster shots. Meanwhile, if it's longer than a year, it means reduced sales opportunities for the company.\nBased solely on Wall Street's earnings per share consensus in 2021 and 2022, Moderna appears reasonably priced. But with the company staring down a potentially significant haircut in revenue next year as new drugmakers enter the space, caution is advised.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nGameStop: Implied downside of 71%\nThis will probably come as a shock to no one, but Reddit favorite GameStop (NYSE:GME) is fully expected to fall flat on its face. Even though Wall Street's consensus price target for the company has quintupled in recent months, it still implies up to 71% downside over the next year.\nThe biggest issue for GameStop is that its valuation has completely detached from its underlying fundamentals. While it's not uncommon for stocks to trade on emotion for short periods of time, operating performance is what always dictates the long-term movement in the share price of a stock. When it comes to operating performance, GameStop has been a dud.\nAlthough the company's first-quarter fiscal results highlighted a 25% net sales increase from the prior-year period, total sales for the company have been falling precipitously for years. That's because video game retailer GameStop recognized the shift to digital gaming too late, and it's now stuck with its massive portfolio of brick-and-mortar gaming stores. Even though e-commerce sales have been a bright spot for the company, slashing costs and closing stores remains its No. 1 priority.\nWith sufficient cash, bankruptcy isn't a concern for GameStop. But without any true top-line growth and the company still losing money, it's an impossible sell at its current price tag.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nOcugen: Implied downside of 18%\nVolatile clinical-stage biotech stock Ocugen (NASDAQ:OCGN) may also be in for an unpleasant next 12 months. The company behind an experimental COVID-19 vaccine (Covaxin) and a trio of internally developed eye-blindness candidates is expected to shed 18% of its value, if Wall Street's consensus price target is correct.\nArguably the biggest issue for Ocugen is the clinical update the company issued on June 10 concerning Covaxin. Even though partner Bharat Biotech led a large clinical study in India that yielded an overall efficacy of 78%, along with 100% efficacy in preventing severe forms of COVID-19, Ocugen announced on June 10 that it would forgo seeking an EUA in the U.S. and would instead file for a biologics license application. In other words, Ocugen's path to a quick emergency approval in the U.S. just flew out the window.\nWhat's more, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's requested additional information and data on Covaxin. This is a fancy of saying that Ocugen will very likely have to run a clinical study in the U.S. prior to submitting Covaxin for approval. That means added costs and an even longer wait before Ocugen has a chance to penetrate the lucrative U.S. market.\nThough it's impossible to predict how long COVID-19 vaccine immunity will last, Ocugen's chances of being a significant player in the U.S. COVID-19 vaccine space are dwindling.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNVIDIA: Implied downside of 3%\nDon't adjust your computer, laptop, or smartphone screens -- that really says NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA). Following its incredible run higher (NVIDIA has doubled over the past year), graphics processing unit giant NVIDIA closed 3% above Wall Street's consensus price target, as of June 17.\nOne reason for tempered expectations at this point has to be valuation. Even with NVIDIA crushing expectations and seeing strong PC gaming demand, sales growth is expected to slow from an estimated 49% in fiscal 2022 to a high single digit percentage in each of the next two fiscal years. In fact, the company closed at nearly 20 times projected sales for the current fiscal year. That's a bit optimistic given an expected sales growth slowdown.\nPerhaps the other reason Wall Street expects NVIDIA to go sideways is the company's cryptocurrency mining chip segment. While sales of crypto chips could hit $400 million in the current quarter, demand is entirely dependent on the hype surrounding digital currencies and the favorability of technical charts. Crypto is just as well known for its long bear markets as it is for the big gains it's delivered over the past decade. If another lull strikes, a fast-growing ancillary segment for NVIDA could easily become a drag.\nFor what it's worth, I see no fundamental reasons to sell NVIDIA if you're already a long-term shareholder. But if you're on the outside looking in, I don't exactly see $746 as an attractive entry point, either.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":151,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":114107002,"gmtCreate":1623055449206,"gmtModify":1634095804911,"author":{"id":"3575458200328114","authorId":"3575458200328114","authorIdStr":"3575458200328114","name":"Aragosta","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7f529718664751aae824e4ca849bd39d","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575458200328114"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"WSB is not the place to be for the latest GameStop news.&nbsp;Superstonk is the place to be for all mattersrelating to GME.&nbsp;","listText":"WSB is not the place to be for the latest GameStop news.&nbsp;Superstonk is the place to be for all mattersrelating to GME.&nbsp;","text":"WSB is not the place to be for the latest GameStop news.
