☆ A co-investment chief at billionaire investor Mario Gabelli's firm shares 3 stocks with strong pricing power he's betting on as inflation remains sticky — including one that could surge 53%
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-25 | by ( William Edwards | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

In such an environment, pricing power is crucial to a firm's success, says Kevin Dreyer. One of the qualities that makes a company attractive to them is strong pricing power: being able to hold prices steady in tough times or even raise them as inflation surges. "I don't tend to think of private label firms as having the best pricing power out there, but that said, what Treehouse has done is pretty unique," he said. The third firm Dreyer talked about was BellRing Brands (BRBR), which owns protein snack brands like PowerBar and Premier Protein. Dreyer also thinks they're a good candidate to be acquired by a larger firm at a premium.

The firm raised its price target from $800 to $1,100 — a new high among Wall Street analysts — after the chipmaker beat second-quarter estimates and issue optimistic guidance. Rosenblatt had already hiked its price target heading into this week . The new price target implies more than 133% upside from Wednesday's close. Analyst Hans Mosemann described Nvidia's AI growth story as "the mother of all cycles." However, he forecasts constraints lifting in 2025, which would then raise the company's earnings per share power to a degree not reflected in the current valuation — and justifying the price target increase.

While much of the rest of the industrialized world has become more secular over the last half-century, the United States has appeared to be an exception. Politicians still end their speeches with “God bless America.” At least until recently, more Americans believed in the virgin birth of Jesus (66 percent) than in evolution (54 percent). Yet evidence is growing that Americans are becoming significantly less religious. For the first time in Gallup polling, only a minority of adults in the United States belong to a church, synagogue or mosque. (Most of the research is on Christians because they account for roughly 90 percent of believers in the United States.)

Wedbush now, however, thinks Amazon has turned a meaningful corner. The firm also highlighted the growth of Amazon Web Services, which Wedbush says could accelerate further in 2024 while "a strengthening digital advertising backdrop" will "should support continued growth in the company's high-margin advertising business."

☆ China's economic troubles are a result of the post-2008 'debt supercycle' finally coming back to bite it, Harvard economist says

China is being hit by a "debt supercycle" that began with the 2008 financial crisis, Kenneth Rogoff said. While Beijing has a strong record of containing economic fires, today's crisis of slowing growth and high debt is unprecedented, he added. "The debt supercycle may have lasted longer than initially expected, perhaps because of the pandemic. But it was a critical piece of the story, and now, as China's economy falters, it is the best explanation for what might come next," he later added. Trouble for China's economy could stretch on over the long-term as it faces poor growth prospects, experts have warned.

Analyst Hans Mosesmann lifted his price target on the chipmaker to $800 from $600 a share, reflecting 82% upside from Tuesday's close. "With unmatched strengths in compilers, libraries, and vertical optimizations, NVDA can overcome hardware specification challenges and drive recurring software revenue streams," Mosesmann wrote in a Wednesday note. "While early innings, we view NVDA as a high-conviction story thriving amid uncertainty given secular AI, autonomous driving, and metaverse tailwinds." Mosesmann expects Nvidia to top estimates for the July quarter and anticipates earnings in the upcoming calendar year will range well into the high teens.

In his place, CBS announced Monday that Wendy McMahon will be chief executive and president of CBS News, the network’s local stations, and CBS Media Ventures. The formidable task is reflective of the extraordinary challenges traditional media outlets are facing amid a period of rapid and existential change to their business models and advertising woes. Increasingly, there is no longer a single powerful media executive tasked with solving for the less-than-ideal set of circumstances. The industry veteran noted that there is less of a focus on making splashy — perhaps at times risky — moves to build for the future among the C-suite ranks. Instead, there is a mounting emphasis on slashing costs to best position the mammoth media companies for the inevitable decline of linear television.

The trains from Tel Aviv were packed one evening last month when Inbal Boxerman, a 40-year-old mother of two, was blocked by a wall of men as she tried to board. One of them told her that women were not allowed on — the car was for men only. It was a public train operated by Israel Railways, and segregated seating is illegal in the country. The men stopping her appeared to be protesters going home from a rally supporting the governing coalition, which includes extremist religious and far-right parties pushing for more sex segregation and a return to more traditional gender roles. “I said, ‘For real?’” said Ms. Boxerman, who works in marketing.

For the first time in Israel’s history, all 15 of its Supreme Court justices will crowd onto the bench on Sept. 12 to hear a case together. The reason: This one is so momentous that it could not only decide the powers of the court itself but also kindle a constitutional crisis. The 15-member court — which meets in a graceful building of beige stone, straight lines and arches on a hill in Jerusalem alongside Parliament — includes secular liberals, religiously observant Jews and conservative residents of Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank. One justice is an Arab Israeli; six are women, including the court’s president. Many Israelis fear that the overhaul will weaken the court as a check on the government, currently the most right-wing and religiously conservative in Israeli history; accelerate a rightward shift of the judiciary that started almost a decade ago; and make it more politicized and less independent.
