As of Dec. 18, 2024, three stocks in the communication services sector could be flashing a real warning to investors who value momentum as a key criteria in their trading decisions.

Top 3 Tech And Telecom Stocks That May Crash This Month

Travelzoo shares are trading higher after Ascendiant Capital maintained a Buy rating on the stock and raised its price target from $18 to $23.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Will Fix It&nbsp;</h3>
In my previous post (<a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2024-11-06/post-trump-victory-trade">The Post-Trump Victory Trade</a>), I highlighted a half dozen stocks in which my subscribers and I had positions that had double digit gains the day after Trump&#8217;s election victory. In response, a commenter wrote, &#8220;Well, I didn&#8217;t like any of those trades, so I will stick to my Gold and Silver.&#8221;.&nbsp;
As it happened, the day after Trump&#8217;s victory, was also the day of the &#8220;<a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/the-market-ear/great-gold-puke">Great Gold Puke</a>&#8220;, as The Market Ear put it:&nbsp;
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><h3 class="wp-block-heading">All good things&#8230;</h3>
&#8230;.must come to an end. Gold is puking, putting in the biggest down candle in forever as it breaks below the short term trend channel. The 50 day comes in around $2635, and the bigger trend line around $2600.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="532" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08195017/Gold-1024x532.png" alt="" class="wp-image-3141" style="width:624px" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08195017/Gold-1024x532.png 1024w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08195017/Gold-300x156.png 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08195017/Gold-768x399.png 768w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/08195017/Gold.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure> 
<cite>Refinitiv</cite></blockquote>
Why would gold tumble after Trump&#8217;s victory? Perhaps there&#8217;s a clue in the Trump campaign&#8217;s slogan, &#8220;Trump will fix it&#8221;. One of the things Trump will fix is the elevated geopolitical risk the world has seen over the last few years, starting with the Russia-Ukraine War, and extending to the wars in the Mideast between Israel and Hamas, and Israel and Iran, and tensions between China and Taiwan.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Geopolitical Risk Is Already Starting To Ebb</h3>
The geopolitical risk premium is a key factor influencing the price of precious metals like gold and silver, as they are traditionally seen as a haven during times of instability and war. Given that, note what has happened since Trump&#8217;s victory:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Hamas <a href="https://x.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/status/1854516506169585796">has called for</a> an end to its war with Israel. </li>
<li>Russian President Vladimir Putin&nbsp;<a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/putin-praises-courageous-trump-hints-ukraine-talks-phone-call-likely">has congratulated Trump</a>&nbsp;on his victory, praised Trump&#8217;s bravery during the first assassination attempt on him, and expressed an openness toward talks aimed at ending the Ukraine war. Peace between the U.S. and Russia would facilitate peace in the Mideast and elsewhere, given Russia&#8217;s ties to Iran, China, and other key countries.&nbsp;</li>
<li>China&#8217;s President Xi <a href="https://x.com/XHNews/status/1854396381982830623">also extended congratulations</a> and an olive branch to Trump.</li>
</ul>
If Trump succeeds in ending the wars in Eastern Europe and the Mideast, and calming tensions across the Taiwan Strait, that would further reduce gold&#8217;s geopolitical risk premium.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Deflationary Potential Of Trump&#8217;s Domestic Policies </h3>
You&#8217;re probably thinking now that even if peace starts to break out, high inflation is baked into the cake because of government spending, and that should boost the price of gold. Consider, though, the deflationary potential of Trump&#8217;s proposed policies, and those of his close allies.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Trump&#8217;s tariffs. Critics of tariffs often point out that they are, effectively, a regressive tax on domestic consumers. This is actually true, and like all regressive taxes, they are deflationary. Just as throwing money and low income Americans boosted inflation during COVID, an effective regressive tax on them would cool inflation.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Trump&#8217;s deportations.&nbsp;Deporting millions of illegal aliens&#8211;or deporting a smaller number and prompting millions more to self-deport&#8211;will have a deflationary effect on sectors such as housing, as there will be fewer consumers competing for the same number of homes.&nbsp;</li>
<li>RFK, Jr.&#8217;s campaign against chronic disease. Every case of diabetes and other chronic diseases RFK, Jr. can prevent with changes to American food policy means a reduction of tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars in health care spending. That would cool healthcare inflation.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Elon Musk&#8217;s Department Of Government Efficiency. Elon Musk has spoken about slashing the number of federal employees (something Vivek Ramaswamy pointed out could be done while avoiding Civil Service regulations) and cutting government waste. That would be deflationary too.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Much Of This Is Likely To Happen&nbsp;</h3>
We all remember how Trump was stymied in his first term, but he is in a much stronger position now. He won a landslide victory, and is now the undisputed leader of the Republican Party. Plus, he has much smarter, and more competent people on his side now, such as Elon Musk. None of this is particularly good for gold and silver prices.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Taking My Own Counsel&nbsp;</h3>
On Thursday, I exited the two gold positions I had, in&nbsp;Olra Mining&nbsp;(ORLA) and IAMGOLD&nbsp;(IAG), as you can see below, in my list of trade exits for this week.&nbsp;

Analysts work in banking and financial systems and typically specialize in reporting for stocks or defined sectors. Analysts may attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

Analyst Scoreboard: 4 Ratings For Travelzoo

Barrington Research analyst James Goss maintains Travelzoo (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TZOO#NASDAQ">TZOO</a>) with a Outperform and raises the price target from $12 to $15.

Barrington Research Maintains Outperform on Travelzoo, Raises Price Target to $15

Small-cap stocks faced a challenging environment for the last several years as inflation and high interest rates dampened lending opportunities. These companies&mdash;which are often in the early stages of development and lack stability&mdash;rely heavily on debt to fuel their growth.
Fortunately for the small-cap space, the Federal Reserve&#39;s September rate cut of 50 basis points is a welcome relief that should make borrowing more accessible. The fact that the Fed has signaled that additional rate cuts are likely in the months to come makes the coming economic environment look all the more appealing for small-cap companies.
In anticipation of lowered rates, the small-cap-focused Russell 2000 Index is up by more than a quarter in the last year. While the increasingly favorable rate landscape should be a boon to small-caps in general, some companies will benefit more than others. Investors looking to small-cap stocks should consider a range of fundamentals and analyst forecasts.
<h2>TZOO: Shift to Paid Model Has Driven Stock Rally</h2>
Travelzoo Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tzoo#NASDAQ">TZOO</a>) provides a variety of websites and mobile apps relating to travel. The firm instituted a $40 annual membership fee at the start of 2024 after previously providing a similar set of services for free. While the shift to a fee-based subscription undoubtedly upset some members, the benefits for the company have so far dramatically outweighed the costs: the firm has yet to see a year-over-year drop in quarterly revenue and maintained more than 30 million members as of the end of the second quarter.
To be sure, Travelzoo has not yet completed its transition to a fee-based service. The company plans to monetize 95% of its existing member base through paid subscriptions by the beginning of 2025. This plan has fueled investor optimism in recent months, and Travelzoo shares have surged by almost 30% year-to-date and 130% in the last year. What&#39;s more, based on a forward P/E ratio of 12.6 and projected earnings growth of 17.5%, the company may still have plenty of room to grow.
<h2>FBRT: REIT With Strong Projected Growth</h2>
The residential real estate market broadly stands to benefit from reduced interest rates, as buyers have an easier time accessing mortgages, and sellers are more motivated to offload when they have the prospect of a relatively low mortgage rate as well. Franklin BSP Realty Trust Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fbrt#NYSE">FBRT</a>) invests in residential mortgage pass-through securities, making it especially likely to benefit from a boost to home sales.
This real estate investment trust (REIT) has strong new commitments of well over $600 million in the most recent quarter, and cash on hand to be able to repurchase 3 million shares during that period as well. Its dividend payment history is strong and it has a dividend yield of 11.2%. Analysts project earnings to grow by more than 24% and see upside potential of more than 21%, too.
<h2>AURA: Positive Trial Results Fuel Optimism</h2>
Clinical-stage biotech firm Aura Biosciences Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aura#NASDAQ">AURA</a>) has had a tumultuous year with a number of brief spikes in stock price, though shares are down about 5% in the last 12 months as of October 10. Still, analysts are widely optimistic about the company, as AURA shares enjoy a &quot;buy&quot; rating and a consensus price target of $21.67, more than 160% above current levels.
Driving this optimism is the company&#39;s recent positive results from its Phase 2 study of bel-sar, a treatment for certain types of ocular cancers. These results showed strong tumor control rates and vision preservation among patients, as well as a favorable safety profile.
<h2>Risk vs. Reward for Small-Cap Stocks</h2>
Small-cap stocks tend to be riskier investments than larger, well-established companies, but they can also offer the prospect of outsized returns when they succeed. Managing risk in the small-cap space also depends on the type of company, the industry and sector, and other factors. Biotechnology companies like Aura, for example, may remain unprofitable for a long period of time before seeing top- and bottom-line (and share price) spikes based on the success of a new drug treatment. This may make firms like this even more volatile than other small-cap companies.

3 Small-Cap Stocks Ready to Deliver Significant Growth

Groupon, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/grpn#NASDAQ">GRPN</a>) has seen its stock decline 25.2% year to date (YTD) against the Zacks Internet-Commerce industry&#39;s growth of 22.9%, the broader retail sector&#39;s return of 19.4% and the S&amp;P 500 index&#39;s rally of 20%.
GRPN, which has emerged as a two-sided global marketplace company, has been suffering from its weakening momentum in the international market. Unexpected site stability issues related to its cloud migration project have also been heavily affecting the company&#39;s performance.
Groupon&#39;s business model makes it heavily dependent on daily deals, which is a major headwind. Since most of the offerings are consumer discretionary products, demand is heavily dependent on macroeconomic conditions. Given this, the ongoing market uncertainties, persistent inflation, looming recessionary fears, changing consumer demand and spending patterns are dampening the company&#39;s near-term prospects.
<h2>Year-to-Date Price Performance</h2>
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/40/80256.jpg?v=610392595" style="border-style:solid; border-width:1px" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
GRPN&#39;s bearish guidance is a negative. For 2024, the company expects revenues between $495 million and $515 million, indicating a year-over-year change between (4%) and 0%. The Zacks Consensus Estimates for 2024 revenues is pegged at $514.51 million, implying a year-over-year decline of 0.1%.
The company operates in a highly competitive market, wherein it faces significant competition from the likes of Yelp (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/yelp#NYSE">YELP</a>), Rakuten, Travelzoo (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tzoo#NASDAQ">TZOO</a>) and Wowcher.
Groupon&#39;s solid momentum in its marketplace platform and strength in its e-commerce business model are major positives. Its large-scale global operations and growing relationship with third-party merchants reflect the company&#39;s upside potential, which bodes well for its long-term prospects.
Given the YTD dip in GRPN shares, investors are questioning whether this is the right time to buy the stock. Let us explore this in more detail.
<h2>E-commerce Strategies to Drive GRPN&#39;s Prospects</h2>
Groupon, through its e-commerce platform, offers numerous deals that can be accessed by users anywhere at any time.
GRPN&#39;s strategy to build a trusted marketplace, wherein customers purchase local services and experiences, is a major positive. For this, the company&#39;s growing efforts to build long-term relationships with local merchants to strengthen its inventory selection remain noteworthy.
It strives to deliver enhanced customer experience through inventory curation and improved convenience in order to boost purchase frequency on its platform.
To strengthen the platform, the company is lifting restrictions on its deeply discounted deals and is enabling customers to purchase such deals more than once to improve the frequency and drive growth in billings.
Growing momentum across the North America region has been driving growth in the company&#39;s Local segment, which contributes the most to GRPN&#39;s total revenues and remains crucial for its e-commerce business. In second-quarter 2024, Local revenues were $114.1 million (92% of total revenues), driven by North America Local revenues, which grew 7.3% year over year.
Groupon&#39;s long-term prospects rest upon its ability to offer more innovative products and build a broader Local e-commerce platform.&nbsp;
The company&#39;s strengthening supply drivers for North America Local are tailwinds. Groupon is witnessing growing traction among large enterprise merchants, thanks to expanding 
relationships with existing partners, and the addition of brands to the platform.
GRPN&#39;s initiatives to remove lower-quality deals from its site that do not align with the brand promise are a plus. Groupon also made substantial progress in curating its deals, with an enhanced presentation, improved deal copy and better images.
Solid demand for family-friendly activities, ranging from trampoline parks and bowling alleys to amusement parks and water parks, is another positive. The company expects to see continued growth in these areas in the days ahead.
Growing momentum in Groupon&#39;s latest initiative called Flash Sale, which was tested first in first-quarter 2024 with one enterprise merchant, is noteworthy. The Flash Sale concept boosted its performance and, hence, the company expanded this program in second-quarter 2024, running over a dozen flash sales with existing merchants to drive performance and boost engagement on its site. Although the initiative is fresh and new, it reflects the company&#39;s potential to expand its business by developing products to cross-sell and up-sell into its supply base.
Groupon&#39;s AI initiative is a major plus. AI integration has enabled it to improve the copywriting of its deals and deal creation process. It leverages AI on projects in product and engineering to improve deal recommendation and quality assurance. Improvements in enterprise sales organization and process changes, combined with value proposition changes, continue to contribute to growth in its enterprise accounts.
<h2>Upward Earnings Trend Paints Bright Picture for GRPN</h2>
Investors are turning bullish about Groupon&#39;s upside potential, which is reflected in the upward revisions in earnings estimates.
For 2024, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at 47 cents per share, whereas the company reported a 2023 loss of 52 cents. The estimate has been revised upward by 56.7% over the past 60 days.

Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
<h2>Attractive Valuation: A Silver Lining for GRPN</h2>
Groupon is currently trading at a discount with a forward 12-month Price/Sales of 0.7X compared with the industry&#39;s 1.72X and lower than the median of 0.84X. This indicates an excellent opportunity for investors.
GRPN also has a Value Score of B, which is hard to ignore.
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/56/80257.jpg?v=1027816364" style="border-style:solid; border-width:1px" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
Despite near-term hurdles, Groupon&#39;s strong marketplace, robust e-commerce business model, growing merchants base and solid supply drivers present a solid investment opportunity for growth-seeking investors.
Its attractive valuation and Growth Score of A make a compelling case for buying the GRPN stock at its current levels.
Groupon sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) at present.

<h3>Uncovering the Importance of Insider Activity</h3>
Insider transactions shouldn't be used primarily to make an investing decision, however, they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a company's equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.
When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down. 
<h3>Understanding Crucial Transaction Codes</h3>
For <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a>, a primary focus lies on transactions occurring in the open market, as indicated in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.
