B of A Securities Maintains Buy on AppLovin, Raises Price Target to $375

Elon Musk recently set social media abuzz with a tweet featuring a clip from Netflix&#8217;s &#8220;Narcos,&#8221; where Pablo Escobar, portrayed by actor Wagner Moura, is seen smoking a joint. Musk captioned the post, &#8220;Actual footage of me after @realDonaldTrump won,&#8221; referring to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41768178/donald-trump-defeats-kamala-harris-to-win-2024-election">Donald Trump&#8217;s 2024 victory</a>. The tweet&#8217;s provocative nature, tying a drug kingpin character to a political celebration, triggered a range of reactions online.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Musk's Cannabis Advocacy And Public Persona</h3>
Musk's selection of a cannabis-themed scene aligns with his public stance on marijuana and psychedelics. In 2018, Musk famously smoked a joint during a live appearance on &#8220;The Joe Rogan Experience,&#8221; sparking both cultural fascination and corporate scrutiny. The incident even prompted NASA to review SpaceX's workplace practices.
Beyond this, Musk has consistently supported the legalization of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis">cannabis</a> and the therapeutic use of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/psychedelics">psychedelics</a>, recently describing them as "pretty helpful" for conditions like PTSD and depression. His tweet juxtaposes this advocacy with a tongue-in-cheek nod to cannabis culture, though some critics have questioned the appropriateness of invoking Escobar&#8217;s likeness in the context of drug reform.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Musk's Role In Trump's Reelection And Political Context</h3>
The tweet coincides with Musk's increasing prominence in U.S. politics. As co-leader of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a special initiative within President-elect Donald Trump's upcoming administration, Musk is tasked with identifying waste in federal operations and driving cost-cutting measures.

The role cements Musk's alignment with Trump's deregulatory platform, but his cannabis-friendly public image contrasts sharply with conservative perspectives on drug policy.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wagner Moura's Political Views And Social Media Irony</h3>
Wagner Moura, the Brazilian actor known for his portrayal of Escobar in &#8220;Narcos,&#8221; holds progressive political views that contrast with Musk's alignment with Trump. Moura has openly <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/wagner-moura-chasing-truth-100000406.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com&amp;guccounter=1&amp;guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly9jaGF0Z3B0LmNvbS8&amp;guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAHyPGwAKPhq_ebbbAr72fKnwcPnvJS6EpQAlbqiXcPZejVhUfydhaxYD39x4-d1Xi4IZ9CYMdVNt30qS4HKVbbOP2T71GtilDmAimDnHraRNLm8zAuS3LxtiLjwBvSDS9Veg3PKX0XNT33KTYuXeq4qsqFCIZYHrN8nkqE3v-2vh">supported</a> leftist causes in Brazil and has been an outspoken critic of authoritarianism. While he has not directly criticized Trump on record, his advocacy for democratic values and opposition to leaders like Brazil's former president Jair Bolsonaro suggest ideological differences with Trump's approach.
This clash between Moura and Musk was not lost on social media. One Twitter user noted, "This actor is Brazilian. He hates Donald Trump and loves Fidel Castro," while another added, "This actor is Brazilian, liberal, and deeply hates you, Elon." Moura has not publicly commented on the incident, but the online reactions pointed out the irony of Musk's use of the clip

Vast Renewables Limited (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VSTE#NASDAQ">VSTE</a>) shares traded higher after the company signed <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/g42161696/vast-receives-30m-from-australian-renewable-energy-agency-for-green-technology-to-decarbonise-aust" rel="noreferrer noopener">an updated funding agreement</a>.
The agreement will give access up to $30 million of its $65 million grant from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency.
The funding will support Vast&#8217;s green technology manufacturing and project development, enabling the deployment of its next-generation concentrated solar thermal power (CSP) solution to provide clean, dispatchable power and heat.
Vast has developed next-generation proprietary CSP technology, offering superior performance at lower cost and risk.
The company has a global project pipeline aimed at decarbonizing electricity generation and powering green methanol and sustainable aviation fuel production.
Proven at its pilot project in New South Wales, Vast&#8217;s technology is set for utility-scale deployment at Vast Solar 1 (VS1), a 30MW power plant with 8 hours of storage in South Australia&#8217;s Port Augusta Green Energy Hub.
The Port Augusta CSP project will generate clean, dispatchable electricity for the National Electricity Market and power Solar Methanol 1 (SM1), a world-first green methanol production facility.
Vast&#8217;s Australian-made CSP technology, produced at its Queensland facility, will benefit from $30 million in funding from ARENA.
This will support the scaling of manufacturing for VS1 and future projects, as well as final development activities ahead of the Final Investment Decision in early 2025.
The funding is expected to create green manufacturing, construction, and long-term operations jobs.
Construction of VS1 is expected to start in the second quarter of 2025, with capital expenditures estimated between A$360 million and A$390 million.
CEO Craig Wood emphasized that the Australian Government support positions Vast to lead a domestic CSP industry and expand its global project pipeline.
Price Action: VSTE shares are up 30.4% at $2.151 at the last check Monday.

MIAMI, Nov. 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EzFill Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EZFL#NASDAQ">EZFL</a>), a leading mobile fueling company, has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the fueling division of Yoshi, Inc. with the aim of expanding its U.S operations and presence.

Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), the heavyweight of Big Tech, has hit a grim milestone in technical analysis: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/death-cross">a Death Cross</a>. 
With its share price slipping below key moving averages, MSFT stock has moved into bearish territory, casting doubts on its near-term prospects. Is this just a blip for the software giant, or the prelude to deeper woes?

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">MSFT Stock: Bearish Signals All Around</h2>
At $418.19, MSFT stock price trails its 20-day, 50-day and even the 200-day simple moving averages (SMAs). Technical indicators are sounding alarms:
<ul>
<li>The 20-day SMA at $418.73, the 50-day SMA at $421.65 and the 200-day SMA at $421.81 all point to a bearish signal.</li>
<li>The eight-day SMA at $417.37, continues to be driven by bullish sentiment over the short term, driven by buying pressure.</li>
<li>The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) stands at -1.11, another red flag.</li>
<li>The Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 49.09 suggests that Microsoft isn't oversold yet but is heading toward bearish momentum.</li>
</ul>
These technical markers paint a strongly bearish picture. Yet, buying pressure persists, indicating that investors still see potential for a turnaround—a glimmer of bullish hope amidst the gloom.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The ProPublica Bombshell</h2>
Compounding Microsoft's technical woes is a ProPublica investigation that has raised ethical and legal concerns over the company&#8217;s federal contracting practices. As detailed in the <a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/microsoft-white-house-offer-cybersecurity-biden-nadella">report</a>, Microsoft's "White House Offer"—a supposedly altruistic pledge to bolster government cybersecurity—was a calculated business maneuver. 
The plan involved providing free upgrades and consulting services to federal agencies, locking them into Microsoft's ecosystem. Once the "free" period ended, agencies had little choice but to continue with costly subscriptions and Azure services, effectively squeezing out competitors.
This strategy not only strengthened Microsoft's grip on federal business but also invited scrutiny for potentially violating federal procurement and antitrust laws. Legal experts argue that the deal sidesteps open competition, raising concerns about its long-term implications for government reliance on a single vendor.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Double-Edged Sword</h2>
While the technical indicators signal bearishness, the buying pressure suggests a tug-of-war between short-term skepticism and long-term optimism. Microsoft's market dominance—bolstered by its lucrative cloud business and strategic maneuvers—remains a formidable moat. 
However, the ethical controversies surrounding its federal contracts could dent investor confidence and invite regulatory headwinds.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Verdict</h2>
Microsoft's Death Cross is a wake-up call for investors. With the stock under technical pressure and the ProPublica revelations casting a shadow over its business practices, the path forward is murky. 
Bulls might see this as a chance to buy on weakness, banking on Microsoft's resilience. Bears, however, have a compelling case to remain cautious as the stock navigates this precarious juncture.
For now, Microsoft's crossroads is a reminder that even the mightiest of tech giants are not immune to scrutiny—or the market's harsh judgment.

In the current session, the stock is trading at $116.06, after a 0.36% increase. Over the past month, Walt Disney Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) stock increased by 21.08%, and in the past year, by 25.83%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1732548611_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Walt Disney P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Walt Disney has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 52.76 of the Entertainment industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1732548611_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.
