GME Stock: Why It Can Still Skyrocket Past $1,000 Per Share

GME Stock - Can GME hit $1,000?
GameStop Stock – Can GME hit $1000 – How high will GME go?

A while back I wrote an article debating which stock you should invest in, AMC or GME stock? The premise of that article was to identify which stock was more convenient for the new retail investor.

See, both are great momentum stocks to hodl, but GME stock is a lot more expensive for the newcomer to buy.

And although AMC has now become the more popular stock, I have a good feeling those hodling GME stock can still see massive gains.

Here’s why.

franknez.com

Welcome to Franknez.com – today I want to talk about GameStop stock, ticker symbol GME. Lets look at the data that states this stock is not done climbing up.

Lets get started!

If you’re like me, you probably didn’t get a chance to get in on GameStop before it began to create a ruckus in the financial world.

Or perhaps you were lucky enough to get a few shares.

I’m a strong AMC shareholder and will not buy GME stock only because I rather increase my position in AMC.

AMC’s short interest is higher, utilization is higher, and so are the shares on loan.

It’s also more affordable.

But don’t get me wrong, the reason I’m publishing this post today is because GME stock has enough data that proves it has more juice to squeeze.

So, if you’re holding GME stock, this article should help you armor up your conviction towards your stock.

GameStop Short Interest

GameStop’s short interest is still rather high. GME’s current short interest is sitting at 20.05% via. Ortex data.

Just to compare, AMC’s is at 20.59% which a short interest of 20% or higher is considered extremely high.

GME’s short interest data is updated daily here for free.

Why Does Short Interest Matter?

Short interest the number or percentage of short shares that have yet to be covered.

For stocks with high short interest this means it is possible to squeeze shorts out of their positions.

GameStop stock is considered to have high short interest therefore it has slack to keep moving up.

Not all shorts have covered their positions!

If you hold GameStop stock, keep holding it.

The longer you hold it, the more money short sellers lose on paper.

Once they can’t afford to hold GME stock they’ll be forced to close.

GME Utilization Rate

GME stock utilization rate is currently 100%.

This means the entire available shares in the market are currently being loaned to short the stock.

APPL for example, may have less than 1% because there’s not a large demand for shorting the stock.

A high demand for shorting GME stock means there’s a play to squeeze shorts out of their positions.

GME shareholders still have a chance to make a ton of money.

Short sellers have not backed off from shorting GameStop and continue to play with fire.

Will Utilization Stay Up?

If more short sellers open short positions then GameStop’s utilization will certainly go up.

At the moment, it seems that there’s 100% of the stock that’s being borrowed.

This number fluctuates from time to time.

Those that are still shorting it have been holding on for quite some time.

However, it’s only a matter of time before they too close their positions and GME stock surges again.

GME Stock: Shares on Loan

Can GME hit $1000
Game Stop Shares on loan: Can GME hit $1000

GME’s shares on loan refers to the number of shares that are being borrowed.

GME stock has approximately 18.67 million shares on loan.

We essentially convert the utilization percentage into the actual number of shares that are being borrowed.

That’s a lot of shares that still need to be covered by short sellers borrowing the stock.

GME stockholders could take advantage of the fact that the stock has been on discount recently.

Especially if you’re still looking to increase your positions in GameStop stock.

Otherwise, GME stock is a hold play right now where patience will bear some sweet fruit very soon.

Charles Schwab Raises Margin Requirements

Charles Schwab just raised margin requirements for short sellers shorting both AMC and GME stock.

This puts short sellers under tough conditions since they’ll need to keep more cash at hand to continue borrowing AMC and GME stock.

And although we’ve seen a little bit of institutional selloff, Charles Schwab continues to hold GME stock.

An institution that has not sold GameStop is Vanguard.

Vanguard is one of AMC’s biggest institutional holder who continues to buy the stock to-date.

So if there’s something GameStop shareholders can take from this is that institutions are still holding GME stock, and there are still enough short sellers to squeeze out of their positions.

How High Will GME Stock Go?

how high will gme go? Can GME hit $1,000?
how high will gme go? Can GME hit $1000 –

So, can GME stock reach $1,000 per share. It’s certainly a possibility given that GameStop’s dark pool trading percentage is rather high, according to Stonk-O-Tracker data.

Dark pool trading in GameStop has ranged between 30%-50%. This means 30%-50% of short selling has occurred behind closed doors.

Short sellers are able to keep their short borrow fee down with this loophole as well as conjure up naked shares to swap with one another.

However, they’ll eventually have to close every synthetic share they’ve ‘borrowed’ to short the stock.

This is massive for GameStop just as it is for AMC.

Is It Too Late To Buy GME Stock?

Is it too late to buy GME stock? Can GME hit $1000 -
Is it too late to buy GME stock? Can GME hit $1000

I would say that you will no longer be able to buy GME stock below 3-figures.

If this figure is too expensive for you to build your portfolio then it absolutely is too late.

However, if you’re looking to diversify your momentum stock portfolio, GME stock could be a good stock to hold.

Otherwise, you’re better off buying the heavier shorted stock that is significantly more affordable at the moment, AMC.

Is Your Portfolio Down? 3 Tips to Navigate the Weather

is your stock portfolio down? 3 Tips to navigate the bad weather
Is your stock portfolio down? 3 Tips to navigate the bad weather

Nothing is more dissatisfying than seeing your portfolio down.

You work so hard to earn the money to invest it, finally begin to see some growth, and then the market dumps.

Now your stock portfolio is down.

Most of you aren’t ‘hedging’ against your losses like most financial institutions are either.

So, what can you do to navigate this bad weather?

Here are 3 tips that will get you through it.

franknez.com

Welcome to Franknez.com – if your stock portfolio is down right now some of you might be wondering whether you should cut your losses or not. Here’s what I’m personally doing.

Let’s dive right into it!

Join the newsletter to receive weekly market news and stock updates.

#1. Increase your position(s)

Increase your position when your stock portfolio is down

One way I personally take advantage of the market when my stock portfolio is down is by increasing my positions.

If you’re a long-term stockholder like I am then you understand the current market situation is only temporary and the market always tends to bounce right back up.

This means that any stock that’s red in my portfolio is at a discount.

Some of you who are part of my private community have received alerts and notifications of when I’ve bought a dip (both stock and crypto).

It’s these types of strategies that have allowed me to weather the bad storm when my portfolios are down.

Why buy on red days?

why buy when the market is down?
Why buy when the market is down?

Buying on red days even if your portfolio is down means you will profit as soon as the market begins to trend upwards again.

If a stock you purchased is down -5% then it goes down to -10%, you can take advantage of buying the asset cheaper at -10% if you anticipate its value will go back up.

In this scenario, if the value goes up again and the original stock you purchased has broken even, then the other share(s) you bought low are up +5%.

If your conviction towards a stock or company is strong, buying heavy during the lows could significantly increase your portfolio’s value as the stock begins to climb again.

While many novice investors might panic at the sight of their assets declining in value, it’s best to stay calm and rely on your conviction and have a strategy in mind.

#2. Invest your money in other assets

Buy crypto with Coinbase
Buy crypto with Coinbase

Other assets you can invest your money in when your portfolio is down could be a business, a crypto wallet, or even in yourself.

One way I’ve invested my money during this bear market aside from stocks and cryptocurrencies has been in my business and in my health.

The reason we invest is to get a return.

So why not invest in a startup or even in yourself?

Because ultimately you are the vehicle that’s going to take you to where you want to be.

Think about how else you can make a return on the money you’re about to invest.

Nothing is ever certain, not even in the stock market.

Take a risk and invest in yourself.

Assets you can invest in other than stocks

  • Cryptocurrencies
  • NFTs
  • Startup/Side Hustle/ Business
  • Health

You’ll find that once you invest in other income generating opportunities, those same opportunities will eventually allow you to invest more into the markets and within one another.

This form of diversification is going to armor you up for when your stock portfolio is down.

Keep track of your net worth as well as the sources growing it to build your portfolio’s confidence.

#3. You can always play it passively

Long-term investing
Long-term investing

When your stock portfolio is down, you can always choose to play it passively and do nothing.

You understand building your net worth is going to take time despite what the market is going through.

Perhaps you don’t find cryptocurrencies or startups attractive, and that’s okay.

This third tip is to be patient and let your portfolio go through the growing pains.

Believe me when I say I’ve been there too.

The important thing here is to stay calm and not let your feelings control your financial decisions.

I know too well this is one of the hardest things about having money planted in the stock market.

But in the end, this all about taking in that learning experience so you can do better the next time an opportunity comes your way.

When should you cut your losses?

when should you cut your losses?

You should cut your losses only when you’ve identified an investment is a dead play or you are not seeing results after 1-2 years, especially if you’re going long on a stock or company.

Day traders cut their losses quick because they’re in the stock market for short-term gains.

Long-term investors should keep a close eye on what they’re investing in to identify whether there is future growth of a stock.

One way I’ve identified a potentially great long-term stock is by looking at the stock’s history chart.

If there’s been consistent growth for over a period of a few years, then you can assume the trajectory will follow in the coming years.

I created a list of these type of long-term stocks here.

I cut my losses on SPRT shortly after the merge with Greenridge because at that point I didn’t trust the company nor its partners.

Another stock I sold was AT&T because after a little over a year all it did was consolidate and its performance was not on parr with my expectations.

These are just my personal experiences selling stocks in the market.

AT&T has a great dividend, and I might create a portfolio specifically based on dividend stocks in the near future to further amp up my portfolio strategy.

And if so, how are you navigating through today’s bear market?

Carvana Stock Is Yielding On Average 750% Per Year!

Carvana Stock
Carvana Stock – CVNA

Carvana is currently the fastest growing used car dealer in the United States. And for good reason too, but more on that later. Carvana Stock, ticker symbol CVNA is up almost 50% this year-to-date.

The stock has had an incredible runup since its inception back in 2017 when it was only worth $11. The stock is up more than 3000% in only 4 years. That averages to an astonishing 750% yearly return! Will Carvana stock keep going up? Or is it overvalued now?

franknez.com

Welcome to Franknez.com – today I want to go over stats, charts, and predictions on Carvana stock. Why? The company might just have some more room for growth.

Lets get started!

I came across Carvana stock when I was actually looking up the previous BMW M4 model online. I was curious to see how they were doing in the market and that’s when I stumbled across Carvana.com.

It wasn’t until after my experience on the website that I decided to look at the Carvana stock price. I looked at the 1 month, 6 month, and YTD chart and wasn’t surprised.

There’s a lot I want to go over so grab a drink or a snack and hang out with me for a minute.

Why Is Carvana Stock Going Up?

Carvana has had a great earnings report both Q1 and Q2 of this year, 2021. The company beat Q4 of 2020 by 31.72% in earnings per share, and Q2 beat Q1 this year of 2021 by a whopping 165.21% in earnings per share.

Carvana earnings call
Carvana stock earnings call chart

The company is doing a great job at earning revenue and keeping a positive cash flow. Carvana earned $3.34 billion dollars in revenue this Q2 which is a 198.39% increase from Q1 when it earned $2.24 billion in revenue.

Carvana’s current net income this second quarter was a whopping $22 million compared to being negative last quarter. Carvana is seeing some positive cash flow now and for this reason is why Carvana stock is rising.

Carvana Quarterly Financials Q2
Carvana Stock Financials

Because Carvana is both a traditional business and eCommerce platform, we can expect more of the tech side to be automated in the near future.

Starting up the tech side costs money, which is why we are seeing the company finally begin to reach higher earnings. The eCommerce side of the business is now performing as it should, attracting more and more buyers to the user experience.

How Does Carvana Work?

See, at Carvana you don’t have to leave your home to purchase a vehicle. Carvana has done an amazing job at configurating every vehicle at their dealer for an online shopping experience.

What makes Carvana so unique is that no other dealer is doing this. Carvana buys vehicles and stores them at their locations. They then create an online model of the exact vehicle with 360′ degree enhancement that you can toggle right from your phone or laptop.

Carvana car model

The images are high quality and you get to look at the exact vehicle you’re looking to buy. They even display bullet points wherever the car has minor damage (if it has any) and provides you with an image of the discrepancy (as shown below).

Carvana Imperfection Model

What’s amazing though is the user experience. You also have the availability to view the interior of the vehicle and access the key feature information from within.

When you decide you’re going to buy a car with Carvana, they deliver your vehicle directly to your home. It’s this convenience in the marketplace that sells and why it makes Carvana an attractive choice to buy a vehicle from.

Carvana Joins The Fortune 500 List

In other stock news, Carvana joined the Fortune 500 List back in June of this year and is claimed to be one of the fastest rises to date.

The company is certainly making a ruckus in the industry. And this is very good for investors.

According to Fred Decker, a company should plan for at least a decade in business before going for the Fortune 500 status. Carvana has accomplished this in only 4 years of being a public company.

Will Carvana Stock Keep Going Up?

Carvana stock certainly has room for growth. The company is still relatively new and as innovation and practicality grows, so will the company earnings and share price with it.

If we look at Carvana’s stock chart trend then we can see that it’s had a steady growth for the past 4 years in a row.

Carvana Stock Price History
Carvana Stock Price History

Even as companies shut down during the start of the pandemic in 2020, the company kept growing. It’s these type of companies that have innovation and an online platform that will be the future of America.

Just like Fiverr stock, the online sector is where scalability is massive. I believe Fiverr could be the Amazon for freelancers. This online marketplace is dominating its space by offering freelancers all around the world a place to sell their services from home.

Carvana’s eCommerce platform can allow people around the globe to purchase vehicles directly from them rather than going into a local dealership or specific dealership.

The potential is certainly massive in my opinion.

How High Will The Stock Go?

Carvana stock could be a great long term stock to hold. The company is still new with lots of room for growth. They are definitely changing the way we buy cars today. Like any eCommerce or tech company, Carvana stock has the potential to reach the high hundred mark to even 4-figures per share.

The company will have to continue to innovate and dominate in order to accomplish this. My Carvana stock prediction is that the price action will skyrocket throughout this decade.

There’s an online business boom that’s going to take place very soon as more and more companies begin to evolve. Whether it’s a hybrid online business model like Carvana, or a full online business like Fiverr, there is no limit to scalability online.

Who Are Carvana’s Competitors?

Carvana’s competitors include both CarGurus and CarMax. Both of these companies sell vehicles but don’t utilize an innovative eCommerce platform such as Carvana does for it’s users.

Unlike Carvana or CarMax, CarGuru doesn’t have its own dealerships. CarGuru sells cars from other dealerships and gets a cut from prospects who contact the dealers straight from CarGuru’s website.

CarMax is a more direct competitor to Carvana, though it doesn’t use the tech Carvana does. Instead, it has a more traditional car dealer business model.

Carvana is in the lead and I believe the company will continue to further innovate down the road.

“The more awareness that’s being built, I think the more understanding and eventually adoption and acceptance of buying a car online,” he says. “Certainly when you look back 10 years ago, to where it’s gotten now, it’s been crazy the growth that’s happening there.” Words from Ryan Keeton, via InsideHook.

More People Want Online Services

According to a survey conducted by Root & Associates, 53% of U.S consumers would be either extremely or very likely to purchase a vehicle entirely online. 59% said they prefer to conduct business on a website provided that they’re able to test drive the vehicle before purchasing it.

86 percent of those surveyed by Root & Associates said that they’d choose to do business with dealerships that offered online sales rather than those that didn’t, via. The Washington Post.

Buying a car online survey
Buying a car online vs buying in person

Roots & Associates says that only 35% of dealers are interested in selling vehicles via their website. That’s incredible. It’s for this sole reason that Carvana has more market share online and are leaders in this sector.

Most car dealers aren’t even willing to take this route. They fail to understand that online business models are the future. It’s incredible to think just how far Carvana can scale their services.

Could they possibly one day sell more Toyotas nationwide than Toyota dealerships? We’re just going to have to find out now aren’t we.

Does Carvana Pay Dividends?

Carvana does not currently pay dividends to its shareholders. This is rather common for a brand new company with only a few years being public.

Offering dividends is something companies can incentivize to their investors as the company continues to grow and yield promising returns.

Right now, Carvana is in the growth process. Dividends could be an incentive for perhaps another year down the road as the car company continues to scale.

So, Is Carvana Stock A Buy?

Carvana stock is certainly a buy if you have a strong conviction towards the online business sectors and marketplaces. Online business models are scaling businesses quickly and shooting up their stock price as well.

The stock market has currently been volatile so I would personally wait for the markets to dip. If you’re able to catch Carvana stock while the market is on fire, I would buy the stock on discount.

People are a little weary of another stock market crash this year for 2021 but as Dave Ramsey says, we must stay calm and stay invested.

Stock market crashes are indeed the best times to bulk up on your favorite stocks at a discount.

How To Buy Carvana Stock

If you’re not invested in the stock market yet, first you’ll need to open a brokerage account using Vanguard or Fidelity for example, which are free to use by the way. Once you create your account you’ll be able to fund it and buy stock.

The ticker symbol for Carvana is “CVNA”.
