▼ + stars: | 2023-12-01 | by ( Ganesh Rao | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Shares of OneSavings Bank , a U.K. lender focusing on landlords, are set to see its share price double from current levels, according to analysts at Jefferies. The lender's stock has already risen by 30% over the past month after it revealed a rapidly growing loan book. U.K. shares are generally priced in pence, with 100 pence equal to one British pound ($1.27). The investment bank believes the market is undervaluing OSB's stock due to the negative perception surrounding the U.K. economy and stock market. They are also bullish on the stock with a 720-pence-per-share price target, giving the stock a 90% upside potential.

☆ This sports betting company is a good short-term buy, Deutsche Bank says
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-14 | by ( Hakyung Kim | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

While Deutsche Bank is skeptical on the long-term story for Penn National Gaming , it is bullish on shares in the short-term. Analyst Carlo Santarelli put a catalyst call buy, or short-term buy rating, on the sports betting company, which trades as PENN Entertainment. In August, the company signed a licensing deal with ESPN to rebrand its sportsbook to ESPN BET, slated to launch in November. Through the deal, Penn has the exclusive right to the ESPN Bet trademark in the U.S. for 10 years, with potential to be extended. An Investor Day in December, which is likely to focus on ESPN BET, will also highlight the brand's early traction, he added.

☆ This high-speed stream of the NFL could be good news for sports-betting stocks

The changing landscape of how Americans watch sports is developing in a way that could benefit gambling stocks, according to Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo analyst Daniel Politzer said the initial results showed the technology passed the test for bettors who want to gamble in between plays. "During week 1 of the NFL season, Caesars Sportsbook app had a livestream of NFL SNF. Latency was better than live TV (20-30 seconds), an incremental development in the OSB/media ecosystem that could potentially increase in-game betting," Politzer said. Increased in-game betting could lead to a higher hold for sportsbooks, Politzer said, which is effectively the margin that books make on all bets.

☆ CNBC Daily Open: June’s jobs report won’t deter Fed from hikes
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-10 | by ( Yeo Boon Ping | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

This report is from today's CNBC Daily Open, our new, international markets newsletter. CNBC Daily Open brings investors up to speed on everything they need to know, no matter where they are. Modest jobs growthU.S. nonfarm payrolls increased 290,000 in June while the unemployment rate was 3.6%, according to the Labor Department. Job creation was — for once — lower than economists' expectations of 240,000, though the unemployment rate, which was 0.1 percentage point lower than in May, was exactly on the mark. [PRO] Eyes on inflationNow that June's jobs report is out, investors are turning their attention to the month's consumer price index, coming out on Wednesday, to get an idea of how high interest rates will go.

The STOXX 600 (.STOXX) rose 0.1% by 1615 GMT, turning positive midway through the session after data showed the U.S. economy added the fewest jobs in 2-1/2 years in June. However, persistently strong U.S. wage growth pointed to still tight labour market conditions that cemented bets the Fed will resume raising interest rates, later this month. Traders stuck to bets the Fed will raise its benchmark interest rate this month to a 5.25%-5.5% range, but were sceptical of further hikes beyond that. The STOXX 600 fell 3.1% for the week, its worst performance since mid-March. Comments from European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde will be monitored later in the day.

☆ UK bank’s 25% drop adds further investor wildcard

LONDON, July 7 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Being a bank investor was already hard enough in 2023. Shareholders who thought rising interest rates were a one-way bet realised otherwise when losses on long-term bonds helped sink Silicon Valley Bank. In it, OSB said it will take a roughly 170 million pound hit to revenue because customers were refinancing home loans quicker than expected. That, in turn, involves predicting how long customers will stay on higher variable-rate tariffs after their fixed-rate deals expire. Central banks’ inflation fight has changed the dynamics here, since rising rates incentivise borrowers to switch more quickly.
