Magnite is a digital advertising industry company that has made inroads into the fast-growing Connected TV (“CTV”) space (thanks to its April 2020 merger with Telaria). The company is now the world’s largest sell-side platform (“SSP”) for buying and selling advertising inventory available across multiple channels, including mobile, desktop and CTV. Magnite experienced demand erosion in 2020 as the global pandemic resulted in reduced ad spending. However, revenues have started to re-accelerate, and the share price has been rebounding dramatically off 2020 lows. What’s more, there is a massive total addressable market opportunity ahead. In this report, we analyze Magnite’s business model, its market opportunity, challenges, current valuation, and conclude with our opinion on investing (including a specific trading idea).
New Options Trade: Very High Upfront Income, Bullish Vertical Put Spread
The market has been strong, particularly technology stocks, and in this report we review a very attractive CPaaS (Communication Platform as a Service) technology stock. In particular, we share an attractive options trade, that generates high upfront premium income (that you get to put in your pocket and keep no matter what), and the trade also gives you a shot of picking up shares of this very attractive CPaaS stock (if the price falls below your strike price prior to the option contract expiration in 1-month). We believe this is a very attractive trade to place today, and potentially over the next few trading sessions, as long as the price doesn’t move too dramatically before then.

New Options Trade: Very High Upfront Income, Attractive DevOps Company
There is a certain breed of companies that has continued to perform extremely well in our rapidly evolving economy (i.e. software-as-a-service businesses that operate on a subscription basis, with high revenue growth and large total addressable markets). We write about one such company (that focuses on “dev ops”) in this report that completed its initial public offering in September, and the share price has been steadily reverting lower after an initial share price pop to more than double the IPO price. In particular we write about an attractive high income-generating options trade that also gives us a chance to pick up shares of this compelling company at an even lower price. We believe this is an attractive trade to place today—and potentially into early next week—as long as the share price doesn’t move too dramatically before then.

In this report, we take a detailed look at the business, the market opportunity, risks and valuation, and then conclude with our opinion on investing.

New Options Trade: High Upfront Income, Attractive Digital Advertiser
In the last couple weeks we’ve seen many of the top growth stocks take a bit of a healthy breather (i.e. the share prices have pulled back a bit). This not only creates a better entry point for long-term investors, but it also sets up some very attractive opportunities to generate high upfront premium income in the options market. This report reviews a very high-income-generating options trade on an attractive digital advertising stock. The trade not only gives us the chance to pick up shares of this attractive company at a compelling price, but it puts high upfront income in our pocket that we get to keep no matter what.

Top 10 Growth Stocks: Options Trading Edition
Top Growth Stocks have been getting volatile in the last few trading sessions. To some, this is a “buy the dip” opportunity, but to others it’s a warning of something more dangerous to come. My personal investment philosophy is to always buy good businesses and then hang on (despite potential volatility) the for long term. And in this article, I will rank my top 10 growth stocks. However, I’ll also share specific options trading strategies that I believe are particularly compelling (based on current market conditions), potentially very lucrative and also consistent with my long-term philosophy. But before we start counting down the Top 10, it’s worth considering the tremendous and wide-ranging recent performance, valuation and expected revenue growth for top growth stock opportunities.
Vast Growth Opportunity: Newly Public Shares
Shares of this newly public “DevOps” company debuted in September and swiftly traded approximately 100% above the $44 initial public offering price. However, given the impressive high growth rate, product offerings and expanding opportunity in a very large and nascent industry—the shares are worth a closer look (especially considering the share price has been quietly reverting back towards its initial IPO level in recent weeks). In this report, we analyze company’s business model, market opportunity, competitive position, valuation and risks before finally concluding with our opinion on investing.
Tremendous Growth Potential, Share Price Just Dipped
Some of the best growth opportunities are NOT based in Silicon Valley, and as such they remain undervalued relative to their long-term growth potential. This report highlights one such attractive opportunity that competes with Silicon Valley darling Twilio (TWLO) in the CPaaS market, but trades at a more attractive valuation and offers even higher expected growth. Not to mention its owned IP network provides scalability, reliability, major cost savings and uniquely positions it for success.
Unity Software: A Long-Term Winner
Unity Software provides tools to videogame developers. The company recently completed its initial public offering in September. The business is healthy, revenue is growing rapidly, and it has a large total addressable market. In this report, we analyze Unity’s business model, its market opportunity, competitive position, valuation, risks, and finally conclude with our opinion on investing.
New Options Trade: Very High Upfront Income, Intelligence Community Software Platform
We wrote about the attractive, yet somewhat speculative, opportunity in this newly public stock just over 1-week ago, and the shares have surged more than 50% since that report (i.e. they’ve climbed from $18 to $28). We still believe the shares are somewhat speculative here (especially at the higher price), but the extremely high upfront premium income available in the options market is hard to ignore. In this report, we share a trade that generates very high upfront premium income (that you get to keep no matter what) and it gives us a chance to own shares of this company at a much more reasonable price. We believe this is an attractive trade to place today and potential over the next few trading days, as long as the price doesn’t move too dramatically before then.

Newly Public Data Analytics Company: Keep It High On Your Watchlist
This data analytics software company recently began trading publicly, and it is known for its highly secretive work with the US government. It has also recently experienced strong revenue growth, and it has a large (and growing) total addressable market (although a fiercely competitive one). In this report, we analyze the company’s business model, growth prospects, valuation, risks, and finally conclude with our opinion on whether this stock offers an attractive risk-versus-reward investment opportunity.
New Options Trade: Very High Upfront Income, Big Sell-Off Creates Opportunity
Highly encouraging Covid-19 vaccine news was released on Monday, and the market reacted in dramatic fashion. For example, popular brick-and-mortar REITs that had been beaten down by the virus (such as SPG and WELL) gained (+27% and +21%, respectively), while social distancing tech stocks (such as ZM and DOCU) lost (-17% and -15%, respectively). However, some names have continued to sell off when they should not have, and we highlight one in particular in this report for an attractive income-generating options trade opportunity. We already own some shares of this name (we purchased them recently), but if you don’t own it (or you wouldn’t mind picking up more shares), you may want to consider this trade opportunity because it generates very high upfront premium income for you to keep, and it gives you a shot at owning shares of this attractive business at an even lower price.
New Options Trade: Very High Upfront Income, Bullish Vertical Put Spread, Chinese Internet Juggernaut
Just three weeks ago we wrote about the attractiveness of this stock, but warned of near-term volatility events at the start of November. One of those events has played out, drawing the share price lower. However, we believe the shares are now trading too low, and they could be driven even lower in the days ahead (as fearful investors panic). These conditions have given rise to this attractive options trade. The trade sounds complex (i.e. “bullish vertical put spread”), but it’s not. It puts attractive upfront premium in your pocket today, it gives you a chance to pick up shares of this attractive stock at a lower price, and it gives you a little insurance on the downside (i.e. your max loss is limited). We believe this is an attractive trade to place today—and potentially over the next few trading sessions—as long as the price doesn’t move too dramatically before then.
Top 10 Growth Stocks: Attractive Long-Term Buys, Ranked
The Vix (VIX), also know as “The Market Fear Index,” is elevated, thereby suggesting it could be a bumpy ride for stocks in the weeks ahead. However, despite the potential volatility, one thing that has worked well throughout history is to simply buy good stocks and then hang on—for the long-term. That may seem easier said than done, but in this report we attempt to help. There are certain themes and companies that are poised to grow dramatically in the years ahead—no matter what happens with near-term volatility. And in this report, we rank our top 10 growth stocks for you to consider.

Chinese E-Commerce Small Cap: High Growth, Attractive Valuation
Shares of this Chinese, small-cap, “brand-focused,” e-commerce company trade in the US (on the Nasdaq) as an ADR (American Depositary Receipt), and they are currently priced attractively after the recent sell-off, especially considering the continuing powerful growth expectations for online commerce and for the company in particular. In this article, we review the solutions offered by the company, its growth prospects, valuation, risks and conclude with our view on why the shares are worth considering if you are a long-term investor.
High Growth Software Company: Tremendously Popular Solution, High Options Market Premium Income
This young high-growth software company has become a solution-of-choice for developers and organizations alike within a relatively short span of time. The company has achieved a five-year annual revenue growth rate of ~59% through a proven “Land-and-Expand” business model, an endeavor to fill the platform’s functionality gaps, a rapidly expanding market, and a solid management team. The company’s stock lost about half of its value in the COVID-19 induced market turmoil earlier this year, but has strongly recovered since then and is currently trading at almost 28x Price-to-Sales multiple. The valuation certainly looks rich (considering the company is not yet profitable and is burning a lot of cash), but the platform is immensely popular among developers and it has a very long runway for continuing high growth in the years ahead. The shares also offer very high premium income in the options market. This article reviews the health of the business, growth prospects, valuation, risks, and concludes with our opinion about why it may be worth considering (and how to play it with put options) if you are a long-term growth-oriented investor.
