STOCKS RISE AS TECHS REVIVE, WITH NETFLIX EARNINGS ON TAP

Tesla shares slide to 52-week low; stock is down roughly 40% year-to-date

Bear of the Day: Baozun (BZUN)

The Zacks Analyst Blog Highlights: American Airlines, JetBlue Airways, Southwest Airlines, Alaska Air and Delta Air

Baozun (BZUN) is a $3 billion provider of digital and e-commerce services in China. The Shanghai-based company's services include website design, development and hosting, information technology infrastructure, customer service, warehousing and logistics services as well as digital marketing. 

 

The reason that BZUN has fallen into the cellar of the Zacks Rank is that analyst earnings estimates have dropped significantly.

 

In the past 90 days, this year's consensus has slid over 20% from $1.13 to $0.90. And next year's EPS projection fell from $1.70 to $1.51.

 

The bulk of the revisions for next year came after the company's quarterly report two weeks ago.

And the results are confirming what we've seen across the board in Chinese technology stocks as the largest consumer class in the world struggles with a slowing economy and trade disputes.

 

The Shanghai Composite Index is down nearly 18% year-to-date, vs the S&P 500 at +10%.

 

Until visibility on growth in Chinese stocks becomes clearer, it's best to stand aside. The Zacks Rank will let you know.

 

Best Electric Car Stock? You'll Never Guess It.

 

Zacks Research has released a report that may shock many investors. One stock stands out as the best way to invest in the surge to electric cars. And it's not the one you may think!

 

Much like petroleum 150 years ago, lithium battery power is set to shake the world, creating millionaires and reshaping geo-politics. Soon electric vehicles (EVs) may be cheaper than gas guzzlers. Some are already reaching 265 miles on a single charge. With battery prices plummeting and charging stations set to multiply, revenues that were already at $31 billion in 2016 are expected to blast to over $67 billion by the end of 2022.
