The Blue Harbinger “Disciplined Growth” portfolio and the “Income Equity” portfolio both posted positive gains (again) in February (thereby extending their growing long-term track records of top performance). However, if you haven’t noticed, the market has been particularly volatile for top growth stocks over the last few weeks. More specifically, the “pandemic trade” is crashing. In this report, we share the latest performance of our top idea portfolios, and offer some tried and true advice (and specific ideas) about current market conditions going forward.
Top 5 High-Growth Stocks, that Just Sold Off
This report is a continuation of our free report “Top 10 Growth Stocks that just sold off,” but in this members-only edition—we include the top 5. As mentioned, it was a terrible week for top growth stocks, but there are plenty of very attractive opportunities (babies that have been thrown out with the bathwater). In this report, we countdown our full top 10 high growth stocks that just sold off, starting with #10 and finishing with our #1 top idea.
This Internet Infrastructure Company: Worth Considering on the Pullback
The market has been volatile this week, especially top growth stocks. This report covers an attractive internet infrastructure and security company (i.e. a top growth stock) that has been increasing revenues very rapidly and has a very large total addressable market (for continued high growth in the long-term). And while the shares of top growth stocks are never going to be cheap, this week’s price pullback has created a small margin of safety thereby creating an increasingly tempting entry point for long-term investors. In this report, we consider the business model, competitive strength, financial position, and finally conclude with our opinion on investing.
The Top 5 High-Growth Stocks: Market Melt-Up Edition
Since the depths of the initial coronavirus selloff in 2020, the market has climbed dramatically higher, and the ascent has been even more dramatic for top growth stocks. In light of these dramatic price gains, many investors are getting nervous and wondering if they should dump their high growth stocks altogether in order to avoid a potential market selloff that media fear mongers warn us of daily. Of course, what you do with your own investment dollars is up to you entirely. We’d never advocate for blindly buying all growth stocks in general, but we do believe their continues to be an ample supply of individual high growth businesses that are worth investing in regardless of what happens to the overall market indexes. And in this report, we countdown our top 10 high growth stocks, starting with #10 and finishing with our #1 top idea.
Palantir Options Trade: Very High Upfront Income
With the price pullback over the last month, and an earnings announcement coming up in less than two weeks, data analytics company Palantir, is setting up for a very interesting and very high upfront income generating options trade. We successfully implemented a similar Palantir trade at the end of November, but those contracts expired (quite profitably) on January 15, and conditions are again attractive for a similar trade. In this report, we review the trade details. We believe it’s 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.
Powerful Growth Trajectory: This New Value-Based Health-Care Model Company
This recently public company (August 2020) is on a tremendous growth trajectory as it delivers a highly differentiated, technology-enabled, value-based care model for Medicare. The continuing growth opportunities stem from the rapid shift of patients to value-based care and increasing patient consumerism. This report reviews the business, its growth prospects, valuation and risks, and then concludes with our opinion about investing.
NovoCure: Large Opportunities Ahead
NovoCure (NVCR) is a global oncology company with patented “Tumor Treating Fields” (“TTF”) technology. It has multiple programs in phase 2 and phase 3 of clinical trials which can potentially result in exponential revenue growth and Total Addressable Market (“TAM”) expansion. As a result, and due to improving market penetration, the stock more than doubled in 2020. In this report, we review NovoCure’s business model, competitive strengths, financial position and valuation, and then conclude with our opinion on investing from a risk-versus-reward standpoint.
Fiverr: Attractive High-Income Options Trade
Fiverr (FVRR) is a global marketplace connecting freelancers and businesses for their digital service needs. The business was already growing rapidly, and the pandemic accelerated it. The trade in this report generates very high upfront premium income (that you get to keep no matter what) and it gives you a chance to pick up shares of this attractive business at a significantly lower price. The premium income available on this trade is very high because the share price has been volatile, but the business remains attractive in the long-term. We believe this is an attractive trade to place today and potentially over the next few trading sessions as long as the share price doesn’t move too dramatically before then.
Magnite: Massive Total Addressable Market
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.
FuboTV: The Ride Will be Bumpy
FuboTV is a “sports first” streaming platform with a very high growth trajectory and a large total addressable market (i.e. lots of room to run). Specifically, it is benefiting from the the secular decline in traditional TV, the shift to connected TV advertising, and the potential growth in online sports wagering. This report reviews the health of the business, growth prospects, valuation, risks and concludes with our opinion on investing.
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.
This Chip Stock: A Rare and Powerful Tech Turnaround
It’s not often that a tech company can successfully reinvent itself considering immense global competition in a rapidly changing marketplace. However, this report covers a semiconductor (chip) company, that has successfully turned itself around and has continuing powerful long-term price appreciation potential ahead. 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.
Performance Update: Disciplined Growth Portfolio +53.0% in 2020, Positioning for 2021
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. We believe this is an attractive trade to place today—and potentially over the next few days—as long as the share price doesn’t move too dramatically before then.
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.
