What's This 'Stock' Thing Anyway?
Heya! It's Goku! I've been hearing a lot about this 'stock market' thing. Bulma tried to explain it but it sounds almost as complicated as fusion! Apparently some guys named Josh Brown and Sean Russo at Ritholtz Wealth Management have been digging into which stocks are powering up the most. And guess what? It's not just about apples or robots – it's about… cars! More specifically a company called Carvana (CVNA).
Monster Energy Super Stock?!
So get this! These guys were talking about how the biggest winner in the stock market over the last 25 years wasn't some super obvious thing like Apple or Amazon. No way! It was Monster Beverage Corporation. Who knew a drink could pack such a punch? It reminds me of those Senzu Beans – instant energy boost! Apparently they took something old and made it new again like when I train to go Super Saiyan! This got me thinking maybe there are other surprising contenders out there ready to unleash their power.
Carvana's Wild Ride: From Zero to Near Hero!
Now about this Carvana thing... It sounds like their stock price has been on more of a rollercoaster than my flying Nimbus! Up down loop de loops! Apparently it was super popular during some kind of 'meme stock' era but then it crashed harder than Yamcha after a fight with a Saibaman. People thought their vending machine idea for cars was a joke but guess what? They've been training! They've been executing! It's like when I was training with King Kai hard work pays off!
Earnings are Over 9000!
The analysts said Carvana's long term chart literally looks like a roller coaster! I think that is very fitting considering how the stock last made all time highs during the meme stock era of 2021 alongside names like Peloton Lucid Motors and the like. When the SPAC bubble popped in 2021 and profitability again became a meaningful metric to Wall Street and retail investors alike the share price of these companies tanked. Sentiment around these stocks followed. CVNA in particular was ridiculed for its business model. The thought of putting cars in vending machines was laughable and the story became a joke along with its share price. The analysts say CVNA hit $3.55 a share in December of 2022 after hitting $375 in August of 2022 — more than 99% off all time highs. The analyst said Whispers of bankruptcy and mismanagement by the company's founders were in the headlines. But everything has changed! The difference between CVNA and everyone else is that they started executing! That means Carvana is growing fast and is becoming more trusted than ever! They're also making more money than before! It's like when I go Super Saiyan – everything just powers up! Revenues are up 38% and net income is up SIX TIMES what it was last year! Talk about a Kamehameha of profits!
Tariffs? More Like... Terrible iffs!
These guys started talking about 'tariffs,' which sound like some kind of tricky energy blast. Apparently if they make new cars more expensive it could actually help Carvana! It's like when my opponent powers up – I have to get even stronger! Carvana says they can still offer a good deal even if things get pricey. That's good news because nobody wants to pay more for a car than they have to. Not even Vegeta!
Watch Out! Danger Zone!
Okay so here's the thing. This Carvana stock is still risky! It's like fighting Frieza – you gotta be careful! Short term traders need to watch out for a drop below $255. Long term investors should keep an eye on that 200 day moving average around $205. But hey even if it drops a bit it might be a good chance to power up your portfolio! Just remember don't go all in like I do when I'm fighting a super strong opponent. Maybe I shouldn't be giving financial advice! Gotta go train now! Kaio ken!!!
