PYPL

PayPal shares are trading higher. The company presented at the UBS Global Technology Conference today.

JP Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth named Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) the top pick following a solid start to the early holiday shopping season.
Early holiday 2024 data points suggest solid U.S. e-commerce growth, with third-party estimates indicating U.S. e-commerce Cyber Week sales growth mainly in line with Anmuth&#8217;s projected +7.5% fourth-quarter U.S. e-commerce sales growth (vs. +9.8% in fourth-quarter of 2023).
Adobe and Mastercard data suggest growth exceeded the analyst&#8217;s +7.5% estimate on Black Friday, and Adobe indicated in-line growth trends during Cyber Monday and Cyber Week.

Salesforce data implies growth in line with Anmuth&#8217;s expectations during Black Friday and Cyber Week but with softer Cyber Monday trends. Amazon announced its Black Friday Week and Cyber Monday holiday shopping period was once again its biggest ever, with record sales, record number of items sold, and customers saving billions of dollars.
Holiday 2024 marks the shortest since 2019 (27 days between Thanksgiving and Christmas), but earlier promotions and deeper markdowns should continue to drive solid growth, the analyst said.
Consumers face still-elevated inflation and interest rates, though macro headwinds are broadly stable compared to a year ago.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The analyst projected U.S. e-commerce penetration at 24.5% of adjusted retail sales this holiday season, +119bps above 23.3% in 2023.
Longer-term, Anmuth noted U.S. e-commerce penetration of adjusted retail sales could nearly double from ~22% today to 40%+ supported by gains across large, underpenetrated categories such as CPG (including Grocery), Apparel &amp; Accessories, &amp; Furniture, Appliances, &amp; Equipment.
Amazon maintains a leading ~45% share of U.S. e-commerce. Anmuth noted it is well positioned during the holiday season, with strong momentum from early holiday promotions, SD1D delivery, regionalization, expansion of the Prime ecosystem, and competitive prices.
Profitero suggested Amazon prices at ~14% average discount to competitors.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Anmuth projected fourth-quarter retail revenue (non-AWS) growth of +8.9%.
The analyst modeled Amazon&#8217;s +7.6 % U.S. GMV (ex Physical Stores) growth, which is in line with his estimated +7.5 % U.S. e-commerce growth and 46.7% U.S. e-commerce share in the fourth quarter (+2bps).
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is Amazon A Good Stock To Buy?</h2>
An investor or trader's decision to buy or sell a stock is unique to their time horizon and risk tolerance. Many typical investors evaluate earnings growth and valuation on a particular stock before making a decision. 
For example, for Amazon.com (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), you'll notice that earnings in its last quarter grew 25.44% <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AMZN/earnings">source</a>. As an investor, you'll want to decide whether that's better or worse than what you'd like to see among stocks in your portfolio. 
On the valuation side, Amazon.com's price to earnings ratio &#8211; a measure of how much an investor pays for the company's earnings &#8211; is compressed 50.9% in the current quarter when compared with last year. That places it above similar businesses Alibaba Gr Hldgs, PDD Holdings, MercadoLibre in its sector. You'll need to decide whether that makes it more or less attractive based on how you think the company will perform over time.
There are many different valuation metrics that may help you make a decision. Find more on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AMZN">Amazon.com's quote page</a>, or if you'd like a deeper dive in an advanced program, try <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga PRO</a> for free.

Shares of Shift4 Payments, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOUR#NYSE">FOUR</a>) are trading lower Wednesday after CEO Jared Isaacman announced his nomination by President-elect Donald Trump to serve as NASA Administrator. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/24/09/40842633/public-company-ceo-goes-to-space-is-there-risk-for-shareholders-when-billionaires-pursue-space-drea">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: Isaacman, the founder and CEO of Shift4, confirmed the nomination on social media X (formerly known as Twitter), writing, "I am honored to receive President Trump's nomination to serve as the next Administrator of NASA." He also emphasized his belief in the potential of space exploration to drive advancements in manufacturing, biotechnology and energy.
Isaacman's increasing involvement in space-related ventures may have drawn attention. Recently, he participated in SpaceX's Polaris Dawn mission, where he conducted a private spacewalk. These activities have potentially raised questions about his availability to lead the company and the risks posed to shareholders by his dual focus.

Shares of Shift4 have traded in a 52-week range of $42.91 to $92.30. Further updates on Isaacman's confirmation process and the company's plans for leadership may further influence market sentiment.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy NVAX Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Nano Nuclear Energy&#8217;s case, it is in the Industrials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, NNE has a 52-week high of $37.50 and a 52-week low of $3.25.

On Wednesday, Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RLMD#NASDAQ">RLMD</a>) announced a preplanned interim analysis of the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/g42312084/relmada-therapeutics-reports-that-data-monitoring-committee-dmc-assessment-indicates-that-the-phas" rel="noreferrer noopener">Reliance II Phase 3 study</a>.
Reliance II is designed to evaluate REL-1017 as an adjunctive treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD), to be used in combination with other approved anti-depressants.
The Independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) analysis indicated that the Reliance II Phase 3 study is futile and unlikely to meet the primary efficacy endpoint with statistical significance.
No new safety signals were reported.
&#8220;We are disappointed with the outcome of this interim analysis,&#8221; said&nbsp;Sergio Traversa, Chief Executive Officer of Relmada. &#8220;Based on these results, Relmada will evaluate the full dataset to determine next steps for the REL-1017 program. The Company will continue to advance the Phase 1 study of REL-P11, an investigational agent for the treatment of metabolic disease, currently in a Phase 1 first-in-human study. We are grateful to the investigative sites and patients who participated in the REL-1017 program.&#8221;
In July 2021, Relmada acquired the development and commercial rights to a novel psilocybin and derivatives program. Psilocybin has neuroplastogen effects that have the potential to ameliorate neurodegenerative conditions.
Relmada identified the potential to use low-dose psilocybin to treat metabolic diseases and published the data at the American Society for the Study of Liver Disease.
Last year, Relmada Therapeutics released efficacy results for the de novo (or new to treatment) patients (204 patients) and safety results for all subjects (627 patients) from the Phase 3 trial (Study 310) of REL-1017 in patients with&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/23/09/34768110/relmada-therapeutics-lead-candidate-shows-promise-in-pivotal-depression-study" rel="noreferrer noopener">Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)</a>.
Patients treated daily with REL-1017 for up to one year experienced rapid, clinically meaningful, and sustained improvements in depressive symptoms and associated functional impairment.&nbsp;
In November,&nbsp;Relmada Therapeutics initiated dosing in a Phase 1 SAD study of REL-P11, an investigational agent for metabolic disease. Phase 2a proof-of-concept study is expected to begin in the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/g41968869/relmada-therapeutics-initiates-phase-1-dosing-with-rel-p11-for-metabolic-disease" rel="noreferrer noopener">first half of 2025</a>.

In-Depth Examination Of 27 Analyst Recommendations For Uber Technologies

In a report released today, Andrew Mikitchook from BMO Capital downgraded Osisko Mining (OBNNF – Research Report) to a Hold, with a price target of...

Market Perform: Osisko Mining Acquisition by Gold Fields Fairly Valued

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
While the precious metals complex largely enjoyed a positive session on Monday thanks to gold&rsquo;s spot price rising, South African gold miner Gold Fields (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/gfi-stock-quote/">GFI</a>) suffered the opposite trajectory: GFI stock stumbled and quite badly, losing roughly 5% of market value. Driving the sentiment downward was the company&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/investing/2024/08/12/gold-fields-buys-canadas-osisko-in-16-billion-takeover/">announced acquisition</a> of Canada&rsquo;s Osisko Mining (OTCMKTS:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/obnnf-stock-quote/">OBNNF</a>) in a deal valued at $2.16 billion.



Investors seem to believe that the deal is too rich for Gold Fields, which will use cash to acquire all outstanding shares of Osisko at a price of $4.90 per share, according to BNN Bloomberg. That comes out to a 66.7% premium to Osisko&rsquo;s closing price on Friday.



Another factor that may be weighing on GFI stock is the current valuation of the miner. Right now, the equity <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/gfi/key-statistics">trades at 3.08x trailing-year revenue</a>. That&rsquo;s a bit higher than the <a href="https://fullratio.com/ps-ratio-by-industry">2.73x sales multiple</a> for the gold mining industry overall.



Still, the acquisition may be a case of the good news outweighing the bad. For some time, Gold Fields has been looking to diversify away from its home nation due to the difficulties involved in extracting precious metals from the world&rsquo;s deepest mines. With the buyout, Gold Fields will enjoy full ownership of Canada&rsquo;s gold project as opposed to the current 50/50 arrangement with Osisko.



<h2>Fundamentals Shine Brightly for Gold Fields</h2>



Another reason to keep close tabs on GFI stock centers on outside fundamentals. One of the biggest issues recently centers on the <a href="https://investorplace.com/2024/08/investor-alert-the-japanese-yen-carry-trade-unwind-explained/">collapse of the Japanese yen carry trade</a>. This financial strategy involved borrowing money in yen to acquire other higher-yielding currencies. The trade worked because historically, the yen saw extremely low interest rates.



However, the Bank of Japan decided to raise rates in order to combat the negative acceleration of the yen. Suddenly, the once-dependable trade was no longer dependable. Back home, investors are anxiously awaiting guidance from the Federal Reserve. After years of elevated borrowing costs, they&rsquo;re looking for relief. That could come in the form of a dovish monetary policy.



Should that materialize, GFI stock would look much more attractive. First, if the yen rises in value, the dollar could weaken in comparison. Second, the Fed lowering the benchmark interest rate would likely be supportive of precious metals.



If so, gold prices may continue marching higher, making Gold Fields&rsquo; Osisko buyout look intriguing.



<h2>Trade of the Day: Take a Stab with GFI Stock Call Options</h2>



Those interested in a speculative opportunity may consider our Trade of the Day: <a href="https://investorplace.com/2024/08/what-is-a-long-call-option-strategy-everything-you-need-to-know-about-long-calls-including-how-to-buy/">buying GFI stock call options</a>. Specifically, the <a href="https://www.barchart.com/stocks/quotes/GFI%7C20250117%7C15.00C/overview">2025 Jan. 17 $15 call</a> looks relatively attractive thanks to high open interest, suggesting broader demand from the smart money.



<a href="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/gfi_2024-08-12_21-01-34.png"><img width="1024" height="630" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/gfi_2024-08-12_21-01-34-1024x630.png" alt="From TradingView.com" /></a>On a technical note, GFI stock found itself on Monday sitting roughly on its 200-day moving average. Because the 200 DMA is a common gauge for market health, it&rsquo;s possible that shares could bounce higher from here. Previous sharp declines in GFI yielded a quick bullish response. The same might happen again.



Finally, the obvious point: Monday&rsquo;s downturn made the aforementioned $15 call much cheaper. Frankly, it appears that the selloff is an overreaction to the terms of the Osisko deal. With cynically positive fundamentals affecting the gold market, GFI stock may be an attractive pickup.
