The high risk asset “Bitcoin” is up more than 100% in 2023, driving other related assets higher along with crypto related stocks. Those who traded markets back in 2020-2021 are very familiar with Mara, as it was one of the best performing mining stock at the time, moving to highs above 80.00.

$MU Post Earnings Breakdown: Chart done on daily timeframe. Shares of the semiconductor company, Micron, are trading higher today after the company’s latest earnings report. The company’s revenue came in at $4.73B, up from same quarter last year of $4B. The company’s net profit is still in the negative territory. The positive reaction can be attributed to their guidance/forecasts. Micron raised guidance into 2024, citing a potential rebound in PC demand. What we’re seeing from MU today is a “power earnings gap-up.” These moves can often lead to multi-week/month rallies, but the key is for the stock to hold the gap levels. For MU in specific, that level is around 83.30. If buyers can defend that support then we see...
SMCI Chart done on hourly timeframe. Super Micro Computer is an electronic technology company that manufactures a brand range of information technology and computer products and solutions. The company’s leading customers are names such as Nvidia, AMD, and Intel, all of which expected to grow in double digit percentage points in the next year. Demand for computer technology and semiconductors has given companies such as SMCI a chance to substantially grow their business. We’ve seen this reflected in the company’s revenue over the last four years, where the company went from reporting 3.56B in annual revenue in 2020 to doubling revenue in 2023 to 7.12B. Many tech companies struggle to maintain profitability as revenue grows, SMCI’s net income has grown...
Nike Pre-Earnings Analysis Nike’s quarterly earnings are expected later this week on Thursday after market close. The company is expected to post revenues of $13.4B, up from last quarter’s $12.94B, but just around same quarter last year of $13.31B. Analysts adjusted their earnings from this year with a “recession” mindset so they weren’t too optimistic on Nike being able to come in above last year’s numbers. With that in mind, we’re watching Nike’s ability, not to beat last quarter’s numbers, but to beat last year same quarter numbers. If they can do that, then buyers will likely come in to buy the stock. We’re confident Nike will beat earnings for a few reasons. The strong dollar is the leading reason...
FDX Post Earnings Analysis Fedex shares are trading lower after the company’s latest quarterly earnings results. The freight and logistics giant missed Wall Street’s earnings per share estimate, reporting $3.99 vs the $4.19 estimate, but still up from same time last year of $3.19. Revenue also came in just below expectations at $22.2B vs the street’s $22.4B estimate. Prior to their earnings, the company was trading at their 2023 highs and was inching closer to its all-time highs, so the severe post-earnings sell-off a knee-jerk reaction by investors who fear they might have been overpaying for the stock. Companies at 2023 highs, or all time highs, need to satisfy investors by beating earnings, not just mediocrely meeting them. Either way,...
