In the current session, the stock is trading at $14.76, after a 0.54% spike. Over the past month, EnLink Midstream Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENLC#NYSE">ENLC</a>) stock increased by 3.95%, and in the past year, by 24.15%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<h3>Evaluating EnLink Midstream P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 28.36 in the Oil, Gas &amp; Consumable Fuels industry, EnLink Midstream Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 66.73. Shareholders might be inclined to think that EnLink Midstream Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1736871316_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Price Over Earnings Overview: EnLink Midstream

Investing in the stock market is often seen as a way to secure a brighter financial future. However, for one Reddit user, DubiouslyCurious, it turned into a cautionary tale of what can happen when timing, leverage and luck don't align. <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/1hwfln7/i_put_my_life_savings_into_nvidia_and_lost_it_all/">Sharing</a> their story on the popular subreddit r/wallstreetbets, this investor laid bare the heartbreaking consequences of betting big on NVIDIA – one of the most successful companies of the last decade.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Dream</h2>
Back in 2018, DubiouslyCurious recognized something many others overlooked: NVIDIA wasn't just a gaming company. It was positioning itself as the backbone of artificial intelligence. The company's GPUs powered AI breakthroughs worldwide and its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/42874538/nvidia-is-still-the-most-important-stock-in-the-market">CUDA platform became essential for developers</a>. According to them, NVIDIA was &#8220;like iOS for AI&#8221; – a tool others couldn't easily replicate.
Believing in NVIDIA's future, they invested everything they had –£100,000 from their savings and inheritance – using 3x leverage to increase their returns.
For a while, the gamble seemed to pay off. As <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/42844944/nvidia-stock-soars-to-all-time-high-on-ai-breakthroughs-at-ces-2025-goldman-sachs-stays-bullish">NVIDIA's stock climbed</a>, they watched their investment grow to life-changing levels. "For the first time in my life, I saw a path to financial security," they wrote. But then came the COVID-19 pandemic, a black swan event that sent the stock market into free fall.
While NVIDIA rebounded quickly, DubiouslyCurious couldn't wait. Their leveraged position meant losses piled up rapidly, forcing them to sell everything to survive. &#8220;I sold when I had to take out the pittance remaining just to buy food. Ironically, of course, as soon as I sell it jumped back up. But by that point the damage had been done.&#8221;
See Also: With 100+ historic trademarks including some of the high grossing characters in history, like Cinderella, Snow White and Peter Pan, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/elf-labs-1">this company is transforming the $2 trillion entertainment market with patented AR, VR, and AI tech. — For a short window, investors are able to claim $2/share ($980 min).</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Timing and Leverage Matter</h2>
Here's where the painful irony sets in – DubiouslyCurious was right about NVIDIA. The company did exactly what they predicted, becoming a cornerstone of the AI revolution and one of the most valuable companies in the world. They claimed if they hadn&#8217;t been driven out of their position, their original £100,000 would now be worth, as they said, &#8220;6.6 million&#8221; if they had just purchased and kept NVIDIA stock without using any leverage.
Instead, leveraging their investment magnified the impact of NVIDIA's temporary downturn during COVID-19. When NVIDIA's stock temporarily dropped during COVID-19, they faced a margin call and lost it all. As one commenter said, &#8220;This graph is a great example of why holding leveraged positions long-term is a bad idea.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Fallout</h2>
Today, DubiouslyCurious says they work for a large company but earn less than half the average wage in their area. Despite being overqualified, their reward is a £20 gift card for employee of the month.
Trending: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/boxabl"> you can become an investor for $0.80 per share today.</a>
But the hardest part isn't just losing the money. Even though they were right about NVIDIA's potential, they still lost everything. "I was completely right about NVIDIA, yet I still lost everything. That's a special kind of torment that's hard for most people to understand.&#8221;
Adding to their challenges, they now <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/41728751/even-as-inflation-cools-most-americans-cant-get-ahead-and-continue-living-paycheck-to-paycheck-r">live &#8220;paycheck to paycheck&#8221;</a> with ME/CFS, a chronic illness that limits their ability to work and rebuild their financial future.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Lessons for Investors</h2>
The story of DubiouslyCurious has resonated with thousands online, sparking debates about risk, leverage and the unpredictability of the market. Here are some key takeaways:
<ol>
<li>Avoid using leverage unless you fully understand the risks: Gains and losses are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/forex-leverage-trading-pros-and-cons">magnified by leverage</a>. Enhancing your returns is alluring, but if the market moves against you, it could leave you with nothing.</li>
<li>Don't bet your life savings: No matter how confident you are in investing, never risk money you can't afford to lose.</li>
<li>Patience and diversification are key: Even if you believe strongly in a stock, it's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-diversify-your-portfolio">better to diversify</a> and hold for the long term without taking on unnecessary risks.</li>
<li>Timing matters – but it's hard to perfect: The market can be volatile and even the most well-researched predictions can go awry if the timing isn't right.</li>

Good Morning Traders! In today&#8217;s Market Clubhouse Morning Memo, we will discuss SPY, QQQ, AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, GOOGL, META, and TSLA.
Our proprietary formula, exclusive to Market Clubhouse, dictates these price levels. This dynamic equation takes into account price, volume, and options flow. These levels are updated every day and shared with all Clubhouse Members, prior to the opening of the market.
We recommend closely monitoring these stocks, and be prepared to leverage potential breakouts or reversals. As always, stay alert and ready to adjust your tactics based on the market&#8217;s pulse to optimize your trading gains. Now, let&#8217;s dive into the stock analysis:
SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust 
SPY is currently trading near the 583.18 level. Bulls are looking to see a breakout above 584.68, which would signal strength and potentially bring the price up to the support level at 585.75. If buyers can maintain control above 585.75 during the session, the next level to watch is 587.31. A continued push higher could lead to testing the day&#8217;s high bull target at 589.71.
On the downside, if 583.18 fails to hold as support, bears may attempt to test 581.97. A break below this level would open the door for further downside movement toward 580.67. If selling pressure intensifies, a test of the key support level at 579.12 is anticipated. In an aggressive sell-off scenario, SPY could reach the low bear target at 577.87.
Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1 
QQQ is trading around 506.68, a critical level for the bulls. A sustained hold above this point could see buyers driving the price to 508.22, which would act as a support base for further gains. If buying momentum persists, the next target would be 509.87, with potential for a move to 511.53. If market sentiment remains positive, the high bull target at 513.64 is within reach.
If 506.68 fails to hold as support, sellers may gain the upper hand and push the price down to 504.44. A break below this level could lead to further losses toward 502.65. Continued bearish activity might drive QQQ to test 501.07, and in the event of heavy selling pressure, the low bear target for the session is set at 499.44.
Apple Inc. 
Apple is currently trading near 234.97. For a bullish outlook, buyers need to maintain support at this level and push the price higher to 235.74. Sustained momentum above 235.74 could lead to a test of 236.69. If bulls remain in control, a rally to the high bull target of 237.49 may occur.
On the flip side, if 234.97 fails to act as support, bears are likely to test 234.20. A break below this level could drive the price lower to 233.28, with extended selling pressure bringing 231.76 into play. If bears dominate, the low bear target for Apple is positioned at 230.25.
Microsoft Corp. 
Microsoft is trading around 419.17, and bulls are seeking to hold this level as support to push the price to 420.26. Sustained strength above 420.26 could lead to a move toward 421.62. If the buying momentum is robust, the session could see Microsoft testing its high bull target at 422.84.
If the price fails to hold above 419.17, bears may target 417.25. A breakdown of this level could lead to further losses toward 416.32, with the next key support at 414.56. If the sell-off continues, the low bear target for the day stands at 413.14.
NVIDIA Corporation NVIDIA is currently hovering around 134.56, a pivotal level for the bulls. A move above 135.64 would signal strength and could bring 136.98 into play. If bullish momentum persists, the price might test 137.94, with the high bull target at 138.55 within reach.
However, if 134.56 cannot hold as support, bears are likely to challenge 133.31. A breach of this level could lead to a move toward 132.19, with further downside potentially testing 131.42. In a bearish scenario, the low target for NVIDIA today is 129.53.
Alphabet Inc Class A 
Alphabet is currently trading around 191.45. For bulls, holding this level as support is critical, as it could lead to a move toward 192.19. If buying strength remains intact, the price could test 193.14, marking the high bull target for the session.
If 191.45 is lost as support, bears might push the price down to 190.41. A break below this level could drive the price further to 189.57, with extended selling possibly targeting the low bear level of 188.73.
Meta Platforms Inc 
Meta is auctioning near 604.50, a key level for bulls to maintain. If held, buyers could drive the price to 609.30. Sustained bullish action might bring the price higher to 615.65, with the high bull target for the day at 622.01.
If 604.50 is unable to hold as support, the bears may test 598.17. A break below this level could open the door to further declines to 591.29. With persistent selling pressure, the session could see Meta reaching the low bear target of 585.73.
Tesla Inc.
Tesla is trading around 407.97, and bulls are looking to push the price higher to 413.10. A strong upward movement could test 416.62. If buying pressure remains strong, Tesla could reach the next resistance at 420.70, with the high bull target at 426.23.
If the price falls below 407.97, bears are likely to target 403.43. A breakdown of this level could drive the price to 399.03, with additional selling potentially leading to a test of the low bear target at 390.23.
Final Word: Today's trading session begins with the release of the PPI Final Demand data at 8:30 AM ET, which is closely watched for indications of inflationary trends. At 10 AM ET, the TIPP Economic Optimism Index for January will provide insights into consumer sentiment, potentially influencing market dynamics. Additionally, Kansas City Fed&#8217;s Jeffrey Schmid will speak on monetary policy at 10 AM ET, followed by New York Fed&#8217;s John Williams at 3:05 PM ET, adding significant weight to the day&#8217;s events.
The release of the Fed Discount Rate Minutes at 2 PM ET will offer clues about the central bank&#8217;s thinking, making it a key focal point for traders. With a dense schedule of high-impact economic data and influential Fed speakers, volatility is expected to be heightened throughout the day. Traders should remain alert, manage risk diligently, and adapt quickly to market-moving developments. As always, stay focused and trade safely!

Shares of D-Wave Quantum Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QBTS#NYSE">QBTS</a>) are trading higher by 8.22% to $4.147 during Tuesday's session, rebounding from recent declines driven by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/42939766/quantum-computing-stocks-tumble-after-mark-zuckerberg-backs-nvidia-ceo-jensen-huangs-practical-comments-qubt-down-9-rgti-falls-16-and-ionq-loses-15">cautious commentary</a> on the timeline for quantum computing&#8217;s practical applications.
The stock's bounce back follows remarks by Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg, both of whom expressed skepticism about the short-term feasibility of quantum computing. 
What To Know: Huang, speaking during Nvidia's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42878295/quantum-stocks-tumble-why-rigetti-ionq-and-d-wave-are-falling">analyst day</a>, projected that functional quantum computers capable of solving real-world problems are still 15 to 30 years away, with a 20-year timeline being the most realistic estimate.
Similarly, Zuckerberg <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42964605/mark-zuckerberg-backs-nvidia-ceo-jensen-huangs-view-on-quantum-computing-its-still-quite-a-ways-off">shared his perspective</a> during an appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast, noting that while he is not a quantum computing expert, he understands the technology remains a long way from practical use.
Read Also:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/42966492/jensen-huang-said-quantum-computing-is-20-years-away-but-nvidia-bets-big-on-strategic-hiring" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jensen Huang Said Quantum Computing Is 20 Years Away, But Nvidia Bets Big On Strategic Hiring</a>
These statements have cast uncertainty on the pace of quantum computing advancements, affecting sentiment across the sector, including companies like D-Wave.
What Else: D-Wave Quantum specializes in annealing-based quantum systems designed to address optimization problems, machine learning, and other complex computational tasks. 
Unlike gate-model quantum computers, D-Wave&#8217;s annealing technology has found early adoption in real-world applications, particularly in logistics, scheduling, and material sciences.
Despite progress, challenges such as error correction, system scalability and specialized algorithms limit practical use in broader industries. While long-term prospects for quantum computing may remain promising, recent commentary has somewhat tempered expectations for near-term breakthroughs.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy QBTS 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 D-Wave Quantum&#8217;s case, it is in the Information Technology 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>, QBTS has a 52-week high of $11.41 and a 52-week low of $0.68.

Bank of America Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) shares are trading higher by 0.85% to $45.43 during Tuesday&#8217;s session. The stock is marginally higher following the release of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42973016/producer-prices-rise-less-than-expected-offer-opportunity-for-market-rebound">softer-than-expected</a> December Producer Price Index (PPI) data, as investors potentially viewed the report as a sign that inflationary pressures might be easing without requiring aggressive Federal Reserve intervention.
What To Know: As a major financial institution, Bank of America is particularly sensitive to interest rate dynamics, given its reliance on net interest income—profits derived from the spread between interest earned on loans and interest paid on deposits.

What Else: Lower-than-anticipated rate hikes could benefit Bank of America by supporting loan demand and keeping borrowing costs manageable for its retail and commercial clients. Moreover, reduced inflation pressures could mitigate concerns about credit deterioration in the bank&#8217;s loan portfolio, as consumers and businesses face less financial strain.
Bank of America also stands to gain from continued economic stability, as a less hawkish Fed reduces the risk of a hard landing that could curb credit growth and capital markets activity.
