Financial Movers

This morning Norwegian Cruise Line (#NCLH) announced their Q4 earnings and reported what many expected that they'd report given current circumstances.. Non-GAAP EPS came in at -$2.33 (miss by $0.17) and revenue of $9.58M (-99.4% Y/Y).

Shares of the company were up +40% over the past two weeks at the start of the trading session this morning, but have dropped -4% since reporting earnings. The company also gave guidance for 2021 and stated that they don't expect to be profitable again until cruising resumes. Is now a good buy on dip opportunity for cruise investors?

Last night Teladoc Health (#TDOC) released their Q4 earnings and failed to impress investors. The company reported GAAP EPS of -$3.07 (miss by $2.82) and revenue of $383.3M (+144.9% Y/Y/).

Although revenues were up dramatically, #Teladoc wasn't able to increase them without also dramatically increasing expenses. A fiscal 2021 outlook was also given which proved to be anything but exciting. The company is expecting total U.S. paid membership to fall in line with 2020 numbers as well as total visits. Shares of Teladoc are up +122% over the past year because investors were betting on growth. The company certainly grew over the past year, but has that growth flattened out?

This evening Nvidia (#NVDA) announced their Q4 earnings and rocked analyst expectations! The company reported Non-GAAP EPS of $3.10 (beat by $0.29) and revenue of $5B (+60.8% Y/Y).

Shares of #Nvidia are up +92% for the year and for good reason! Their profit margins are wide and the companies guidance continues to increase. Outlook for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 projects revenue to increase up to $.30B from the $5B that was just reported. All dips in Nvidia should be considered as buying opportunities!

Last night Square (#SQ) reported their Q4 earnings and beat analyst expectations! The company announced Non-GAAP EPS of $0.32 (beat by $0.08) and revenue of $3.16B (+141.2% Y/Y).

Shares of #Square are up +200 over the past year, but are down -4.95% in pre-market this morning after reporting. Much of the stock's growth has come from bullish investors, but growth in the company does appear to be flattening out compared to quarter over quarter. Is now a good buy on dip opportunity for investors that want long in Square?

This evening Intuit (#INTU) announced their Q2 earnings and missed analyst expectations. The company reported Q2 GAAP EPS of $0.07 (miss by $0.05) and revenue of $1.6B (-7% Y/Y).

Shares of #Intuit are down -3.82% in post market after reporting the miss and may give investors a buy on dip opportunity. Although revenue was down, the company gave guidance for Q3 of +55% revenue growth since completing their acquisition of Credit Karma.

This morning Home Depot (#HD) reported Q4 earnings and beat analyst expectations. The company announced GAAP EPS of $2.65 (beat by $0.03) and revenue of $32.26B (+25.1% Y/Y).

Since reporting shares dipped as low as $258 (-6%). The overall stock market is in sell-off mode today so that's putting pressure on the stock, but the company also failed to give 2021 fiscal guidance which is also putting sell pressure on investors. Is now the time to buy the Home Depot dip?

This morning Royal Caribbean (#RCL) reported their Q4 2020 earnings and missed expectations. The company announced GAAP EPS of -$6.09 (missed by $0.79) and revenue of $34.13M (-98.6% Y/Y).

During the report the company also announced that they expect to burn, on average, between $250M to $290M per month. Should investors buy RCL shares or is it a sinking ship?

Earlier this month eBay (#EBAY) announced their Q4 earnings and beat analyst expectations. The company reported Q4 Non-GAAP EPS of $0.86 (beat by $0.03) and revenue of $2.78B (+28.1% Y/Y).

The CEO of #eBay went on to announce that the company grew active buyers by 7% and gross merchandise value to $26.6B. It's obvious that 2020 helped excel eBay's growth, but will it continue this year?

Earlier this month Aflac (#AFL) reported their Q4 earnings and beat analyst expectations! The company announced a Non-GAAP EPS of $1.07 (beat by $0.03) and revenue of $5.9B (beat by $400M).

Insurance companies like #Aflac are lagging the total financial sector and are still far off from their highs of 2020. Aflac has raised its dividend for 37 years, announced an 18% increase to its dividend in 2018, and has been authorized to buy back 99 million shares. After a tough 2020, but still able to post strong earnings, is Aflac stock a buy?

This past Thursday, Waste Management (#WM) announced their Q4 earnings and beat analyst expectations. The company reported a Non-GAAP EPS of $1.13 (beat by $0.04) and revenue of $4.07B (beat by $100M).

Over the past year the total stock performance of Waste Management is down nearly -10%. For total 2021 outlook the company expects revenue growth to increase by 11%. Is now a good buy on dip opportunity for Waste Management investors?
