Evercore's tech analyst Mahaney has a new top stock pick
  + stars: | 2023-05-22 | by ( Brian Evans | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
3 spot on Evercore's technology and internet top picks, trailing only Meta Platforms and Uber in the first and second position, respectively. Evercore's price target of $150 implies about 29% upside for Amazon compared to Friday's close. Mahaney struck an optimistic tone on Amazon largely thanks to the potential growth of Amazon Web Services (AWS). The tech giant's cloud unit's revenue grew by roughly 16% in the first quarter, a slightly faster pace than anticipated by analysts. Over the long term, Mahaney added, Amazon's ability to grow artificial intelligence projects and integration could help cloud services going into 2024.

  + stars: | 2023-05-21 | by ( Krystal Hur | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +7 min
Traders saw a roughly 36% chance last Thursday that the Fed will raise rates by another quarter point in June, up from around 15.5% on May 12, according to the CME FedWatch Tool. Traders pared down their expectations to about a 18.6% chance that the central bank will raise rates next month, as of Friday evening. Experts seem to agree that the Fed is unlikely to raise rates again in June. Jim Baird, chief investment officer at Plante Moran Financial Advisors, also expects the Fed to hold rates steady in June. Dimon said in the same Bloomberg interview that he’d “love to get rid of the debt ceiling thing” altogether.

Federal Reserve officials could talk tough enough at their June meeting that it would amount to a de facto interest rate hike. "All Fed officials are being careful not to exclude a June hike with more data to come and we would not completely exclude this either," he added. A "substitute" hike could see the rhetoric out of the June meeting reasserting the Fed's stern commitment to fighting inflation and disinclination toward easing anytime soon. But some taming in the inflation data , stronger economic signals and repeated statements from central bankers that cuts are not in their forecast have caused a shift. Fed fund futures contracts are implying a 4.585% funds rate by the end of the year, from the current 5.08%.

Areas where conditions are similar are more prone to spillover, scientists say. The Reuters analysis, which assessed spillover risk through 2020, has proven to have some predictive power. Similar statistical models are used widely to analyze data in ecology, and researchers use them to understand spillover risk. More than one of every five people on the planet is living in areas where the risk is highest for spillover. Using epidemic modeling software called GLEAMviz, the news agency simulated a worldwide pandemic originating from the spillover of a theoretical novel virus.

The artificial intelligence trade may be leaving investors vulnerable to significant losses. Evercore ISI's Julian Emanuel warns Big Tech concentration in the S&P 500 is at extreme levels. Emanuel reflected on "odd conversations" he had over the past several days with people viewing Big Tech stocks as hiding places. "[They] actually look at T-bills and wonder whether they're safe. Interestingly enough, with all of this AI talk, health care and consumer staples have outperformed since April 1," Emanuel said.
Simply put: the big indexes are doing OK, but the average stock is not. Big-cap tech is back but not a lot else If you just owned the top seven stocks in the S & P 500 , you'd think this was a rip-roaring quarter for passive investors in the S & P 500. Market cap vs. equal weight S & P 500 in Q2 S & P 500 up 0.6% Equal-weight S & P 500 down 1.1% There is a particularly large divergence in technology this quarter: Market cap vs. equal weight Technology S & P 500 in Q2 S & P 500 Technology: up 0.2% Equal-weight: down 6.1% What this tells us is that the average stock, and particularly the average technology stock, is underperforming the market. In the S & P 500, this peaked at a little over 70% in early February. The simple way to interpret this is that less than half of the stocks in the S & P 500 are in an uptrend.

Most Wall Street analysts like what they're seeing from Apple , viewing the iPhone maker's better-than-expected results as a sign of resilience and its continued ability to deliver even in a tough environment. Apple rose 2% in the premarket after posting earnings that beat expectations, driven by stronger-than-expected iPhone sales. Chatterjee has an overweight rating on Apple and a price target that implies upside of 14.6%. Softening demand 'casts a cloud' Despite the company's better-than-feared results, some analysts do expect volatility ahead. UBS analyst David Vogt reiterated his buy rating on the stock but said softening demand "likely casts a cloud on the stock near term."
Qualcomm amplifies chip gloom with 'sobering report'
  + stars: | 2023-05-04 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
May 4 (Reuters) - Qualcomm Inc's (QCOM.O) shares sank nearly 8% premarket on Thursday after the chip designer signalled it would take longer for its crucial smartphone market to rebound from a post-pandemic slump. Qualcomm's quarterly revenue outlook was the second time a chip firm has underwhelmed Wall Street this week. "While we believe investors were expecting a miss, this was admittedly a somewhat sobering report," said Bernstein analysts, among the 13 brokerages that cut price targets on Qualcomm's stock. Qualcomm did not name the modem customer, but analysts pointed to Apple, which will report results after markets close. Automotive revenue jumped 20% and the internet-of-things unit reported in line sales, indicating that Qualcomm's efforts to diversify away from the smartphone market were on track.
