☆ Top Wall Street analysts are feeling confident about these 3 stocks after earnings
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-12 | by ( Tipranks.Com Staff | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

Bearing that in mind, here are three stocks favored by the Street's top pros, according to TipRanks, a platform that ranks analysts based on their past performance. Silberman noted that U.S. same-store sales growth of 5.6% reflected broad-based momentum, with improved traffic experienced in carryout and delivery. She added that the traffic growth was driven by Domino's revamped loyalty program, strong value proposition, operations and innovation. The analyst also noted that DPZ is benefiting from increased contributions from Uber Eats, thanks to growing marketing efforts and awareness. The analyst thinks that the company's strategic initiatives will enhance same-store sales growth and drive meaningful restaurant margin expansion in the near and long term.

☆ Despite reasons for Ford's latest EV sales surge, there's a lot going right at the automaker
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-11 | by ( Paulina Likos | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

Lower pricing due to softening demand helped April electric vehicle sales at Ford more than double, even as the automaker was shifting resources away from the money-losing unit. Despite the volume increases, Ford Model e saw losses widen in Q1 to $1.32 billion on just $100 million in quarterly sales. Ford's hybrid sales in April rose almost 60% to 17,997 units. We believe a buyback would be a catalyst for Ford stock just like it has been for General Motors , which announced its repurchase plan back in November. As a subscriber to the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer, you will receive a trade alert before Jim makes a trade.

☆ Cramer reviews energy drink stocks that have seen declines, but says Celsius is worth buying
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-09 | by ( Julie Coleman | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Thursday reviewed two major players in the energy drink sector that have seen declines recently: Celsius and Monster . Wall Street has loved this sector in the past, Cramer said, but in March and April the two stocks have "turned ice cold," along with many other growth stocks. But he was optimistic about Celsius' future performance, saying he'd buy the stock over Monster. While tighter inventory from PepsiCo isn't ideal, Cramer said he thinks Celsius will be fine moving forward because the rest of its business is solid. He acknowledged that Celsius stock has started to rebound — finishing up 6.4% on Thursday — but said it's still a good time to buy since it remains down from its highs.

☆ How Apple's record $100 billion-plus stock buyback benefits shareholders
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-09 | by ( Zev Fima | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +7 min

Apple 's latest $110 billion stock buyback authorization is the granddaddy of them all — the biggest in corporate history. Assuming an average annual $100 billion buyback by the Club name going forward, we wanted to look at just how much that is worth to shareholders. With more records set for its installed base of active devices and services in Q2, Apple stock rose nearly 6% on Friday, the session following Thursday evening's release. The net cash position is important because Apple aims to be net cash neutral over time. At a valuation of 28 times earnings, we arrive at a share price of about $182 each, right around where it was trading Wednesday.

Despite my long-term bullish outlook on AAPL, I'm considering a short-term bearish trade to fade this post-earnings spike. If AAPL starts against me, I would want to close the trade if I lose 50% of my investment (i.e., $125).

☆ Disney shares tumble on light guidance. But here's why we're raising our price target

Disney Why we own it: We value Disney for its best-in-class experiential entertainment Parks business, which has proven to have immense pricing power. In the second quarter, the combined business — Disney+, India's Disney+ Hotstar, Hulu and ESPN+ — saw losses of $18 million, far better than the $659 million loss in the year-ago period. DTC profitability benefited from Disney+ core subscriber growth, higher retail subscription prices, increased advertising revenue on the back of higher impressions, and lower distribution costs. Clearly, Disney still has a big opportunity in sports as they execute on their DTC streaming strategy for ESPN.

London CNN —Two of Europe’s biggest oil companies, Shell and TotalEnergies, are considering abandoning their stock exchanges for Wall Street in a move that would deal a hammer blow to London and Paris. Shares of TotalEnergies and Shell trade on a price-to-cash flow ratio of 4.7 and 5.2 respectively, compared with a ratio of 8.4 for Exxon Mobil (XOM) and 7.6 for Chevron (CVX). Alastair Syme, managing director of global energy equity research at Citi, says Shell and TotalEnergies have long traded at a discount. Investors would “be much more comfortable” buying European energy companies if they were part of the more valuable S&P 500 benchmark index of US equities, according to Syme.

☆ We are trimming a large position to take some profits in this overbought market
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-06 | by ( Jeff Marks | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Following the trade, Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust will own 1,250 shares of MS, decreasing its weighting to about 3.80% from 4.20%. Our interpretation of an overbought reading is that the market has had a big run in a short period and could be due for a rest. There have been many times an overbought market continues to rally — late 2023 is a good example —so it's too hard to predict if we'll see a pullback like after the last time the Oscillator was overbought on March 28.

Shares of Apple surged 6% on Friday as investors cheered better-than-expected fiscal second-quarter results and the announcement of the biggest stock buyback program in U.S. corporate history. In theory, Apple's $110 billion stock buyback program should provide a boost to its share price.
