There is an asymmetric opportunity available – relatively low risk for a relatively large reward. It’s relatively low risk since it’s cheap because Wall Street hates it and it’s a lower-risk legal structure. It’s a relatively large reward because – well – Wall Street is wrong. I’m talking about funds like the iShares US Real Estate ETF (IYR), counsels Michael Murphy, editor of New World Investor.
Since I moved Apple Inc. (AAPL) and Meta Platforms Inc. (META) to a “Hold” on July 3, they and the rest of the Magnificent Seven have been clobbered. There should be a reprieve when they start reporting good earnings in a couple of weeks, but then I expect the relative underperformance to continue for a while, notes Michael Murphy, editor of New World Investor.
BofA’s equity sentiment indicator is up to a two-plus year high, but not yet at a bullish extreme. Since 1980, markets have also never topped in June due primarily to pension inflows. Even though this uptrend is in desperate need of a consolidation, it might not happen yet. Meanwhile, I like Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR), says Michael Murphy, editor of New World Investor.
QuickLogic Corp. (QUIK) reported revenues up a whopping 45.5% from last year to $6.01 million, just under the $6.2 million consensus estimate. It was driven by a nearly 60% increase in new product revenue. Pro forma earnings of 11 cents per share more than doubled the five-cent estimate and marked their third straight quarter of pro forma profitability, writes Michael Murphy, editor of New World Investor.

Small-cap biotech is not affected by the economy and ignored by the institutions and computerized algo traders. You must Be early, be right, and hold on to turn every $1 into $20 over the next few years. Join this session to learn Michael Murphys three early biotech stock picks. Its his job to be right about the science and getting FDA approval. Its your job to hold on until its time to cash in.
Chasing hot stocks, buying tips from TV gurus talking their book, and day trading against the computers often end in tears. Individuals don't have to report quarterly performance so you can take a long view and buy: 1. Stocks selling at a big discount to book value with a catalyst, 2. Stocks selling way out of whack with past relationships with a catalyst, and 3. Dirt-cheap stocks developing technologies of the future with—you guessed it—a catalyst. During this presentation, Michael Murphy will give you the due diligence on each.
