InvestorPlace•14 hours agoThe Move Toward Software and Services Makes Roku Stock a Keeper
Given its $6 billion market cap, Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) has floated under many investors’ radar. While Roku stock has been hit hard amid the market’s pullback and is up “just” 16% in 2018, shares are up more than 170% over the past 12 months. Revenue continues to grow and margins keep expanding as the company shifts to software and services over outright hardware sales.

3 Stocks That Are Up or Down Over 7% in Early Trading
The market is posting a slight comeback from yesterday’s sell-off with the S&P 500 Index (SPY) up about 0.5% and the Nasdaq Composite Index (QQQ) up just over 1% in early trading. While the weakness in eBay’s stock makes sense, it now trades more than 37% below its 52-week high and trades at very attractive valuations, so I think the reward far outweighs the risk at this point and I would consider buying the stock today.

Market Realist•yesterdayKey Technical Levels: Is the S&P 500 Heading for a 2,670 Support?
In the week that ended on October 12, the S&P 500 Index (SPY) fell 4.1%, but it bounced back earlier this week. In the last three sessions, the S&P 500 Index has recovered 1.5% as of October 17, primarily due to solid bank earnings and a sharp recovery in tech stocks. In contrast, the market turned negative again today, and at 1:45 PM EDT, the S&P 500 benchmark was down 1.8%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average Index (DIA) and the NASDAQ Composite Index (QQQ) were down 1.8% and 2.3%, respectively, from the previous session’s close.

Talking the Netflix quarter with CGTN
My view on the pullback after the Euphoria is that even thought he net sub add for 4q was impressive, it does represent a high bar for the company to jump over. And the stock is still trading at 85 times next’s years EPS for 57% growth. And cash flow per share is still negative all the way into 2020. I guess another question is do you want to put your eggs in the Netflix basket when DIS, TWX, T, and Hulu ramp up their own streaming services. Ultimately isn’t Netflix just a content studio competing with a lot of other streaming content services? Does it look like some weird version of CBS at some point. CBS trades at 1.3x revenues – Netflix is 8x revenues. That won’t happen for a while – but is that the mentality of some investors? This is rare for me, but I don’t have a real opinion on this one – feels like no man’s land for the stock as it waits for direction from the market. Guess while I wait, I will watch The Crown or Stranger Things.

What LRCX (up 3%) Teaches Us About Hyper Cyclical Stocks
Lam Research reported and guided last night, and it was another stinker:-3% EPS growth last quarter and a guide for -18% EPS growth this quarter. Overall EPS is supposed to drop 14% next year to just over $15. So why is the stock up 6%+ today? Back in July, we recommended that members of Market Realist Pro avoid or short the stock at $190. And I have recommended shorting it back in April on Market Realist. Why? We saw the exact same pattern play out in 2011 and 2012. A deceleration early in the year, followed by capitulation after the report in October of 2011. Stocks are excellent at anticipation and their entire function is to discount future earnings and earnings growth. So always look out on the horizon. It was absurd in June to say “Oh great – they are growing EPS at 87%”. Because there was a see of red after that. From July 30th to the bottom a few days ago, LRCX dropped 23%+ while the QQQ’s only dropped 4.5%. Yikes.

BAML (Bank of America Merrill Lynch) conducted a survey that polled 231 global investors with $646 billion in total assets under management from October 5–11. The sell-off and concerns of peaking growth in the US might have tempted investors to shift into emerging markets (EEM). The emerging market currencies were in a free fall with many countries like Argentina, Turkey, India, Indonesia, and Brazil bearing the brunt.

Tuesday Market Movers
The market continues to try and bounce back from its route the last couple of weeks. All three indices, (QQQ)(SPY)(DIA) are up about a percent so far this morning, but all three are down solidly from almost 4% for the Dow to almost 7% for the Nasdaq. Jittery investors want to know if the rally can hold up. Let’s look under the hood at some of the movers including BLK, GWW, MS, GS, UNH, JNJ, DPZ, and ADBE. Blackrock (BLK) continues its slide down about 4% today ($408) and now over 25% from its peak ($550) in June. Larry Fink said they saw people dumping investments even before the downturn. This name has a huge earnings cliff that may get worse. The NTM earnings multiple is still 16x while it dropped to close to 10x in 2011. Morgan Stanley (MS) had a sold quarter and is up 3%+, but wow, look at the earnings cliff. It goes from 33% earnings growth this year to 7% (that will probably go up) next year. Luckily it is only 9x 2019 earnings. It is pretty cheap and could likely bounce for a bit, but don’t get too excited about next year.
