$PTON was once worth $171 a share, now at $3.39.

From $63 Billion to $1.25 Billion.

Would $NKE, $LULU, $SKX consider buying this and adding value to their ecosystem?....seems like a steal at this level. https://t.co/saGwqgLgrm

I want to give a HUGE shoutout to my friend @CorneliaLake on Tidewater's $TDW success.

He pitched TDW/offshore on my podcast in April 2023.

Since then, TDW is up ~150%.

Investing is a lonely game. It's important to celebrate the wins when good people get them.

The Long Investor
The week is over, it was a big one and eventful.

For the second week in a row the $SPY and $QQQ tested and finished below their 50 Day MA

Still too early to call this a rejection

Bulls and Bears will need to go at it again next week to decide the markets direction next.

Enjoy your weekend!

RT @DimitryNakhla: $SBUX Update 👇🏽

In the first two photos you will see the “Before Earnings” estimates & “After Earnings” estimates

The original 2026 EPS estimate was lowered from $5.35 to $4.98, a 6.91% decrease 📉

However, it would be prudent to approach these lower estimates with caution, as we've witnessed a significant decline in $SBUX's near-term predictability. This decreased reliability warrants a healthy dose of skepticism when considering these estimates

This is why I believe that, while shares may appear to be undervalued, it’s wise to let the sand settle for a couple quarters until there’s been some type of “bottom” in the business

While waiting may mean missing the exact bottom, it also ensures avoiding the potential danger of catching a falling knife if $SBUX faces further difficulties — & if you purchased $SBUX when it appeared undervalued in the mid $80’s — the current price isn’t necessarily too far off
___

With that being said, let’s make some conservative assumptions (I’ve reduced 2025 & 2026 & just assume an 11% growth rate) and see what kind of CAGR potential $SBUX has if it can get close to meeting these estimates:

2024E: $3.73 (5.4% YoY) *FY Sep
2025E: $4.14 (11.0% YoY)
2026E: $4.59 (11.0% YoY)

Let’s assume $SBUX ends 2026 with $4.59 in EPS (~10% below current estimates) & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples

21x P/E: $96.39💵 … ~14.0% CAGR

20x P/E: $91.80💵 … ~11.7% CAGR

19x P/E: $87.21💵 … ~9.4% CAGR

Even when we assume lower EPS growth & a lower multiple, $SBUX appears to be a decent consideration at $75💵

IF (big IF) the 2024 challenges are a one-off, then those buying today will likely do well as yesterday’s mega-decline made up for the decreased estimates

If the 2024 challenges carry over into 2025, then there’s much greater uncertainty in $SBUX return potential & this is why I believe it’s wise to wait a couple of quarters to let the “sand settle”
