Stocks Recovered On A Smaller Invasion

[CLICK HERE JOIN OUR LIVE TRADING & TRAINING SESSIONS]( Hello investor, Stocks Recovered On A Smaller Invasion The invasion of Israel appears to be smaller than feared, leading stocks to recover from last week’s declines. The S&P 500 was up by 1.2% for its best day since late August. - “The operation isn’t as large as feared yet — and that’s helping to slightly reduce geopolitical anxiety,” said Tom Essaye, a former Merrill Lynch trader who founded The Sevens Report newsletter.

Fed funds futures pricing indicates an about 98% probability that the central bank will leave rates unchanged. Anastasia Amorosco at iCapital expects it to be a good sign for stocks, as rising Treasury yields may be doing the tightening job for the Fed Reserve. So, the rate-hiking cycle could be done. - “I actually expect that that might be a bullish development, because Fed Chair Powell sort of alluded to the case that the fact that Treasury yields rose across the curve means they might be done tightening,” said Anastasia Amoroso, iCapital chief investment strategist. Moreover, October’s payrolls report will be out this Friday. Investors will want to see some slowdown, so it doesn’t stay too tight. Today, we will get earnings results from Caterpillar, Pfizer, Caesars Entertainment and Advanced Micro Devices. Apple will report on Thursday, which investors are watching closely considering the fact that the iPhone maker is the largest member of the S&P 500. So, we will have three key catalysts coming in the next few days: - Federal Reserve’s rate announcement (Wednesday), Apple’s earnings (Thursday), and October’s jobs report.

([DV]() Digital advertising almost like the Wild West, which concerns many corporations. They must rely on a platform’s metrics. This is a problem because they have no idea if Facebook’s “impressions” showed to a real person or not. And more importantly, the Internet can be a crazy place. Unlike televisions, you can come across bizarre content like conspiracy theories. You can’t control where your ads will be placed. A company like Coca-Cola doesn’t want to be seen with a “fake news” article. It would be bad for its brand reputation. Enter DoubleVerify. It is the platform that measures digital media transactions. Its mission is to “create stronger, safer, more secure digital transactions” where corporations can get the most bang out of their ad dollars. And it protects advertisers from data fraud. It invented a proprietary measurement called “DV Authentic Ad” which measures whether a digital ad is displayed in a fraud-free, brand-suitable environment and is fully viewable in the intended geography. And this metric is delivered to the customers in real-time. Incredible growth: Clearly, DoubleVerify hits a bull-eye on the pain points of advertisers. You only need to see its growth. In the second quarter, it delivered an incredible 22% revenue growth. (Source: DoubleVerify) This is only a continuation from its strong revenue track record. The company never grew slower than 34% in the past three years with the exception of an expected 25% growth this year: (Source: DoubleVerify) Its ability to win (and keep) customers is remarkable. DoubleVerify won 80% of all RFPs that it participated in. A RFP is “request for proposal,” and it is notorious for hit-or-miss. Not DoubleVerify. Clearly, its offerings are so powerful that customers can easily grasp its competitive advantages. (Source: DoubleVerify) And it can keep customers once they are acquired. It kept 100% of its top 75 customers since 2019, and the average revenue per customer soared from $0.7 million (2018) to $2.6 million (2022). (Source: DoubleVerify) Want a bonus? Once it keeps customers, DoubleVerify has a powerful set of products that it can easily cross-sell and up-sell. All its product offerings can multiply a customer’s total revenue by ten-fold! Swimming in cash: DoubleVerify’s business has an insane margin. In the past four years, DoubleVerify maintained adjusted EBITDA margin above 30% in all years. And it has zero long-term debt. Bottom line: DoubleVerify solves massive pain points of advertisers, and it is paid handsomely for it. You can’t argue its 34%+ revenue growth in the past three years. This is an exciting company to own.   [CLICK HERE JOIN OUR LIVE TRADING & TRAINING SESSIONS](     © All Rights Reserved, Trade Alliance If you no longer want to receive these messages, you may [click here]( to unsubscribe.
