Streaming giant Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) aired its first NFL games on Christmas Day with two games featuring four of the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/12/42354185/nfl-games-set-thanksgiving-day-records-why-this-is-good-and-bad-news-for-streaming-giant-netflix"> top teams in the league.</a>
Here's a look at what happened and a poll that shows the holiday may have hurt viewership.
What Happened: Netflix <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/12/42512587/netflix-analyst-say-its-only-investable-media-stock-projects-150-million-nfl-christmas-day-boost">spent an estimated</a> $150 million on the rights to two 2024 NFL games on Christmas Day. Strong advertising demand may help the streaming giant recoup the fees and turn the events into free marketing plays.
The big question will be how many viewers tuned in to the NFL games as they were Netflix exclusives and also competed against NBA games, which have traditionally been a staple on Christmas. Family gatherings and events also likely took top billing on Christmas, leaving investors and analysts to eagerly await official viewership data.
Using Benzinga's own methods of polling, the data doesn't suggest that viewership will be as strong for the NFL games as some may be expecting.
"Did you watch Netflix football games?" Benzinga asked during its <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgZkTiF6WnU">morning YouTube show </a>"Benzinga's Market Edge Live."
The results from the show&#8217;s YouTube viewership were:
<ul>
<li>Yes: 27%</li>
<li>No: 72%</li>
</ul>
Benzinga also<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42653325/exclusive-netflix-to-have-merry-christmas-with-nfl-games-will-viewers-tune-in-60-say"> recently polled readers</a> and asked if they would be watching ahead of the Christmas Day games.
&#8220;Will you watch Christmas NFL games on Netflix?&#8221; Benzinga asked.
Here were the results:
<ul>
<li>Yes, I already have Netflix: 39%</li>
<li>No, I don&#8217;t have Netflix and won&#8217;t watch: 30%</li>
<li>No, even though I have Netflix: 30%</li>
<li>Yes, I plan to subscribe to Netflix to watch: 1%</li>
</ul>
The largest percentage of readers said they are subscribers and will be watching, getting 39% of the vote. Thirty percent of Netflix subscribers said they won&#8217;t be watching despite being able to watch the games for free with their subscription. Thirty percent said they do not have Netflix and won&#8217;t subscribe just to gain access to the NFL games.
In total, the poll found that 60% of readers don&#8217;t plan on watching the NFL games on Christmas Day.
Why It's Important: NFL viewership has been strong during the 2024 season, with the Chiefs being one of the most popular teams. The official Netflix viewership figure could show what the appetite is like for more holiday NFL games and more streaming exclusives.
In the first Christmas Day game this year, the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 29-10 to take their record to 15-1 on the season. The Steelers dropped to 10-6 on the season, with both teams already having NFL Playoffs spots clinched.
Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce led the way with eight catches for 84 yards and a receiving touchdown, which set the record for the most receiving touchdowns by a Chiefs player all time with 76.
In the second Christmas Day game on Netflix, the Baltimore Ravens defeated the Houston Texans 31-2 to improve their record to 11-5. The Texans fell to 9-7 on the season. Both these teams have also clinched spots in the 2024 NFL Playoffs.
In the Ravens dominant win, quarterback Lamar Jackson rushed for 87 yards and a rushing touchdown. Jackson now has 6,110 career rushing yards, breaking a record previously held by Michael Vick.
With the win and dominant performance, Jackson remains a favorite to win a second-straight NFL MVP. Jackson, who won MVPs for the 2019 and 2023 seasons, ranks second in the betting odds at sportsbook DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>) with odds of +170. Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is the current favorite at -225.
Here are the current Super Bowl LIX betting odds from DraftKings:
<ul>
<li>Kansas City Chiefs: +360</li>
<li>Detroit Lions: +390</li>
<li>Buffalo Bills: +600</li>
<li>Philadelphia Eagles: +650</li>
<li>Baltimore Ravens: +650</li>
<li>Minnesota Vikings: +1,100</li>
<li>Green Bay Packers: +1,300</li>
<li>Los Angeles Rams: +3,000</li>
<li>Washington Commanders: +5,000</li>
<li>Pittsburgh Steelers: +5,000</li>
<li>Los Angeles Chargers: +5,000</li>
<li>Houston Texans: +5,000</li>
<li>Denver Broncos: +5,000</li>
</ul>
The Chiefs are back to being the betting favorite as they try to win three straight Super Bowls, which would be a first for any NFL team.

Netflix NFL Games Show Off Super Bowl Contenders, MVP Frontrunner: Benzinga Poll Says 27% Watched

SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LAES#NASDAQ">LAES</a>) shares closed Thursday up more than 60%, and the stock isn&#8217;t slowing down after hours. Shares are up more than 3% in extended trading after the company announced it regained compliance with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/g42694574/sealsq-regains-compliance-with-nasdaqs-minimum-bid-price-requirement">Nasdaq listing rules</a>.

SEALSQ received a letter from the Nasdaq on Aug. 1, stating that the company was not in compliance with the&nbsp;$1&nbsp;minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq. The company was required to maintain a minimum bid price of at least $1 for 10 consecutive trading days prior to Jan. 28.

SEALSQ Corp Shares Are Moving Higher After Hours: What's Going On?

Editor&#8217;s note: This story has been updated with comment from Zelle and Bank of America. 
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau sued three of the nation's largest banks and the operator of Zelle last week, alleging a failure to protect consumers from widespread fraud on the peer-to-peer payment network, resulting in customer losses of more than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40155365/zelle-controversy-heats-up-jpmorgan-considers-legal-action">$870 million since 2017.&nbsp;</a>
The Details: The CFPB's <a href="https://www.consumerfinance.gov/enforcement/actions/early-warning-services-llc-bank-of-america-na-jpmorgan-chase-bank-na-wells-fargo-bank-na/">lawsuit</a> alleges that JP Morgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), Wells Fargo &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>), Bank of America Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) and Early Warning Services rushed to complete the Zelle payment network in order to compete with Venmo and CashApp and neglected to enact effective fraud safeguards.

"The nation's largest banks felt threatened by competing payment apps, so they rushed to put out Zelle," said CFPB Director Rohit Chopra. "By their failing to put in place proper safeguards, Zelle became a gold mine for fraudsters, while often leaving victims to fend for themselves."
The lawsuit further alleges that the banks "systemically failed" their customers by failing to properly investigate customer complaints or share information on known acts of fraud which allowed bad actors to hop between banks and commit repeated fraudulent transactions.&nbsp;
Zelle told Benzinga in an emailed statement that it sees the CFPB's lawsuit as politically motivated and&nbsp; "legally and factually flawed." Zelle said it "leads the fight against scams and fraud" and that its reimbursement policies exceed those required by law.
"The CFPB's misguided attacks will embolden criminals, cost consumers more in fees, stifle small businesses and make it harder for thousands of community banks and credit unions to compete,&#8221; said&nbsp;Jane Khodos, Zelle spokesperson.
A Bank of America spokesperson told Benzinga that more than 99.5% of Zelle transactions go through without incident and when an issue arises, the bank works directly with the customer to resolve it.
"We strongly disagree with the CFPB's effort to impose huge new costs on the 2,200 banks and credit unions that offer the free Zelle service to clients," Bank of America added.
Benzinga also contacted JPMorgan, Wells Fargo, Bank of America and Early Warning Services for comment on the lawsuit.
JPMorgan told CBS News that the CFPB has a &#8220;political agenda,&#8221;and the agency is &#8220;overreaching its authority by making banks accountable for criminals, even including romance scammers.&#8221;
The CFPB said its lawsuit aims to stop the banks' alleged unlawful practices, secure penalties for the violations and obtain other relief for consumers.&nbsp;
"The banks failed to fix glaring flaws in their systems even as hundreds of thousands of customers filed complaints about fraud," Chopra said in a <a href="https://www.consumerfinance.gov/about-us/newsroom/prepared-press-call-remarks-of-cfpb-director-rohit-chopra-on-the-zelle-lawsuit-announcement/">statement</a>.
"The banks knew their customers were having their money stolen, but since they weren't bearing the cost of these losses themselves, they dragged their feet on fixing the problems," he added.&nbsp;

Federally funded&nbsp;survey data&nbsp;provided by the University of Michigan indicates&nbsp;that teen marijuana use has declined significantly over the past decade and is now at historic lows.
Consistent with data previously reported by the <a href="https://norml.org/blog/2024/08/07/cdc-data-highlights-sustained-decline-in-youth-marijuana-use/">Centers for Disease Control and Prevention</a> and the <a href="https://norml.org/blog/2024/07/31/government-survey-data-shows-nearly-20-percent-decline-in-teen-marijuana-use-over-past-decade/">National Survey on Drug Use and Health</a>, the University of Michigan's annual Monitoring the Future report finds that cannabis use by young people is at a 30-year low. The federally funded Monitoring the Future survey has been operating since 1975.
This year's&nbsp;<a href="https://monitoringthefuture.org/data/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">findings</a> are based on responses from about 24,000 students in grades 8, 10 and 12 in schools across the U.S. The survey is "one of the best, if not the best" source of national data for substance use by teens, said Noah Kreski, a Columbia University researcher who has studied teen drug use, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/teen-drug-use-b5e877b4c7eecb5354c3b8214e7d8692">noted</a> the AP.
In a Dec. 17 <a href="https://nida.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/2024/12/reported-use-of-most-drugs-among-adolescents-remained-low-in-2024">press release</a> issued by the National Institutes of Health on the same day of the report, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/nora-volkow">Nora Volkow</a>, M.D., director of NIH's National Institute on Drug Abuse described the overall decline in substance use by young people as "unprecedented."

"This trend in the reduction of substance use among teenagers is unprecedented," Volkow said. "We must continue to investigate factors that have contributed to this lowered risk of substance use to tailor interventions to support the continuation of this trend."&nbsp;
Over the past 10 years, during which time 24 states legalized adult-use marijuana sales, the percentage of 8th graders, 10th graders and 12 graders who reported having ever consumed cannabis declined 32%, 37% and 23%, respectively, according to the study.
"Sensational claims that adult-use legalization laws are linked with greater marijuana use by teens are simply not backed by reliable data," said <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/paul-armentano">Paul Armentano</a>, deputy director  of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. "These findings ought to reassure lawmakers that cannabis access can be legally regulated in a manner that is safe, effective, and that does not inadvertently impact young people's habits."

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
When it comes to building wealth in the stock market, buying shares of quality companies early in their growth trajectories offers perhaps the most proven formula for life-changing returns. However, identifying those diamond-in-the-rough small caps before they become household names presents a major challenge. This is where undiscovered penny <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/growth-stocks/">growth stocks</a> come in.



Though ultra-speculative and high-risk overall, a select group of rapidly expanding businesses trading under $5 per share can transform early investors into millionaires if their disruptive potential is realized. Dedicating a small portion of portfolio capital to thoroughly vetted penny opportunities sets the stage for outsized rewards over time.



Of course, losses are equally likely with such speculative moonshot bets. But by targeting <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/penny-stocks/">penny stocks</a> with strong top-line growth, relatively sound financials, and clear paths to profitability, the odds of multibagger gains improve dramatically. As these thriving young companies scale up, their depressed share prices should eventually reflect the underlying fundamental progress. Let&rsquo;s take a look!



<h2>Altus Power (AMPS)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/electricity-wire-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="A concept image of electricity flowing between two disconnected electric cables."><div>Source: ESB Professional / Shutterstock.com</div></div>As a commercial-scale supplier of clean electric power across the U.S., Altus Power (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/amps-stock-quote/">AMPS</a>) is focused on expediting the transition to renewable energy nationwide. Through valuable partnerships and acquisitions that enhance growth and reinforce their competitive strengths, Altus has established a footprint across hundreds of sites in over 20 states.



There&rsquo;s no denying Altus Power&rsquo;s stock has underperformed recently, and their less-than-stellar financials certainly don&rsquo;t inspire confidence. However, I believe that if you&rsquo;re targeting multibagger returns this year, AMPS could deliver exactly that. The company seems poised for a financial turnaround as electricity demand swells thanks to escalating EV usage and surging power needs for AI data centers and cloud computing. Essentially, the macro backdrop looks bright for electricity providers like Altus.



Though Altus&rsquo; present financial position appears weak, analysts anticipate a dramatic improvement by 2025, including positive EPS. Even more impressive, earnings growth is <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/AMPS/earnings/estimates">expected to skyrocket 140% in 2026</a>. At current prices, that means you&rsquo;d be paying only around 18 times the estimated 2026 earnings &ndash; an undeniably cheap forward P/E ratio given that revenues are projected to double from 2024 to 2026.



It&rsquo;s worth noting that Altus does have a track record of missing estimates, like when they undershot Q3 revenue projections by 14% and Q4 figures by 6%. However, given their stellar long-term growth runway, I believe the stock could still realistically deliver multibagger returns over the next few years. The projected growth is just too substantial to ignore.



<h2>Pinstripes (PNST)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/pennies-cheap-1600-300x169.png" alt="Pennies in a jar on top of a background of pennies. Pennies. Cheap stocks."><div>Source: John Brueske / Shutterstock</div></div>As an experiential dining and entertainment brand blending bistro fare, bowling, bocce ball and event hosting, Pinstripes (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/pnst-stock-quote/">PNST</a>) has carved out a unique niche since its launch in 2007. Having expanded to 13 locations across nine states, Pinstripes aims to open over 100 new venues in the coming years.



The broader &ldquo;eatertainment&rdquo; industry appears poised for vigorous revenue expansion. However, risks remain in terms of successful execution and performance monitoring. Still, I&rsquo;m bullish on Pinstripes&rsquo; potential to generate multibagger returns for patient investors given their strong cash reserves and ambitious growth strategy.



While PNST stock slid in late 2022, it has traded predominantly sideways in recent months. I expect shares to mount an impressive recovery this year. Analyst consensus calls for sales to climb from $122 million this year to <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/PNST/earnings/estimates">$233 million by 2025</a>. Though Pinstripes isn&rsquo;t forecast to reach profitability over the next couple years projected losses seem manageable at under $10 million annually moving ahead. With $40 million now on the balance sheet, the company has ample capital to fund operations over the next four years as revenues scale dramatically higher. For these reasons, PNST remains a high-conviction penny pick in my book.



<h2>Wishpond Technologies (WPNDF)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/penny-stocks-fingers-300x169.jpg" alt="Image of a penny held between two fingers with a white indoor background. Dividend-Paying Penny Stocks"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>As a provider of online business solutions on a global scale, Wishpond&rsquo;s (OTCMKTS:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/wpndf-stock-quote/">WPNDF</a>) all-in-one platform empowers companies to boost marketing results, accelerate lead generation, streamline sales, optimize ad spend, boost customer referrals and improve conversion rates through AI-powered automation. This diverse functionality allows businesses to optimize their digital presence and unlock growth.



Typically, well-established SaaS marketing players trade at 10-20x forward sales while churning out substantial profits &mdash; a description that admittedly does not apply to Wishpond at current. Although the stock has plunged 66% over the trailing year, it can realistically achieve similar profitability and valuations in the years ahead given the recently renewed growth momentum.



In fact, Wishpond <a href="https://www.google.com/finance/quote/WPNDF:OTCMKTS">recorded a small profit</a> last quarter to reverse previous losses. Looking ahead, analysts forecast annual sales growth will <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/WPNDF/earnings/estimates">accelerate from 12% in 2023 to 31%</a> by 2025. If Wishpond maintains this growth trajectory and margin expansion continues leading to sustained profitability, multibagger upside potential seems highly attainable here. Wishpond held a healthy cash position of $900,000 and zero debt as of September 2023. Management expects record top and bottom line results this year, powered by increased bundled software sales, larger sales teams and new AI-based product introductions.



<h2>NanoXplore (NNXPF)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/penny-stocks-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="Page of newspaper with words penny stocks. Undervalued Penny Stocks"><div>Source: Vitalii Vodolazskyi / Shutterstock.com</div></div>NanoXplore (OTCMKTS:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/nnxpf-stock-quote/">NNXPF</a>) manufactures and supplies high-volume graphene powder for diverse industrial markets. By incorporating graphene into plastics and composites, they enable enhanced products for customers across transportation, packaging, electronics and other sectors.



NanoXplore has immense upside potential as graphene demand swells exponentially over the coming years. The global graphene market is expected to rocket from <a href="https://www.mordorintelligence.com/industry-reports/graphene-market">$790 million in 2024 to $4.84 billion</a> in 2029, expanding at a vigorous 43.64% CAGR. Nicknamed the &ldquo;wonder material,&rdquo; graphene boasts immense strength &ndash; 200 times stronger than steel at the same thickness &mdash; while remaining extremely lightweight.



Multiple catalysts point to possible outperformance of NanoXplore versus current projections. Analysts forecast revenue to leap from <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/NNXPF/earnings/estimates">$96 million in 2024 to $189 million</a> in 2027. However, as graphene use cases proliferate further, the company will handily beat estimates. NanoXplore&rsquo;s massive production plant in Montreal stands as the world&rsquo;s biggest graphene production facility, uniquely positioning them to capture surging market share.



<h2>SmartRent (SMRT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/rental-th-1600-300x169.png" alt='A paper cutout of a house is attached to a tag reading "for rent."'><div>Source: Pixelbliss / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Despite recent sideways trading and declines, SmartRent (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/smrt-stock-quote/">SMRT</a>) delivering compelling long-term gains as profitability draws nearer. As a foremost provider of smart home automation solutions for multifamily residences, SmartRent empowers property owners and managers to streamline operations via software and hardware that controls security, access, utilities and more.



With automation and AI commanding tremendous excitement lately, demand appears strong for SmartRent&rsquo;s offerings as smart homes gain traction. Analysts model near breakeven in 2024, with profits materializing in 2025. At just <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/SMRT/earnings/estimates">33x estimated 2026 earnings</a>, SmartRent looks cheap compared to forecasted 20%+ annual revenue growth and ~30% annual margin expansion over the next four-plus years. With negligible debt and $215 million in cash, execution risk seems modest. Management guides to $260-$290 million revenue in fiscal 2024, marking SmartRent&rsquo;s first year of positive adjusted EBITDA at $5-$8 million.



<h2>Copperleaf Technologies (CPLFF)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/growthstocks_1600_02-300x169.jpg" alt="Hand of woman watering small plant in pot shaped like growing graph representing growth stocks. Sleeper Growth Stocks"><div>Source: Khakimullin Aleksandr / Shutterstock</div></div>Headquartered in Canada but selling globally, Copperleaf (OTCMKTS:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/cplff-stock-quote/">CPLFF</a>) provides software solutions leveraging operational and financial data to optimize asset investment decisions for organizations managing critical infrastructure assets.



As infrastructure spending booms, particularly in the U.S., Copperleaf is well-positioned to benefit by selling its software services to support better capital allocation. Recent results validate this thesis, with 20%+ annual revenue growth projected moving forward.



While profits have yet to materialize, Copperleaf surprised last quarter, exceeding EPS estimates by 42%. With $88 million in the bank and margins set to inflect positively, I believe profit compounding could ignite multibagger upside &mdash; though more likely beyond 2024 given early phase profitability. Still, long-term business momentum clearly points upward in my view.



<h2>ZOO Digital (ZDGGF)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="200" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/cloudmsn-compressor-300x200.jpg" alt=""><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>Offering cloud-localized and digital distribution solutions globally, ZOO Digital (OTCMKTS:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/zdggf-stock-quote/">ZDGGF</a>) enables media content like movies and shows to be adapted for different languages and cultures while managing digital delivery. They also provide complementary software offerings related to those services.



No doubt ZOO Digital&rsquo;s recent stock and financial performance has proven lackluster. However, beyond transient headwinds, I expect a return to healthy growth in the years ahead as profitability initiatives gain hold after the near-term decline. Case in point: ZOO Digital&rsquo;s forecasted 3-year free cash flow and revenue growth rates stand at <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/stock/ZDGGF/summary">144% and 36.3%</a>, respectively. Trading at just $0.46, shares also look extremely inexpensive relative to $1.60 fair value estimate per GuruFocus. Once macro conditions stabilize, ZOO appears poised to capitalize on long-run, secular growth tailwinds.
