Early Morning Vibes: 4 Top Movers To Watch For Weekend

Investors remain concerned about the situation in the bond markets. Last week, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell was able to calm the markets somewhat, but yesterday his speech went down the wrong way with investors. During his speech, he indicated that the bond market situation has his attention, but he saw no reason to intervene yet.

Powell also said it is very likely that inflation will rise further as the economy recovers, but he thinks this will only be a temporary effect. Without sustained inflation coupled with a return to full employment, the central bank is unlikely to hike interest rates. His thoughts combined with the lack of measures led to rising interest rates again.

At the same time, this was again enough reason for investors to hit the sell buttons. Technology was again the bitten dog, the Nasdaq closed 2.11% lower at 12,723 points. The S&P 500 did less badly with a loss of 1.34% to 3,768 points. The same shares as Wednesday were sold off again. For example, we saw Baidu again lose more than 6.2% and Tesla also fell by 4.86%.

The Nasdaq has fallen below 13,000 points with all the violence through the support surface. The technology fair is now in the red for the current year. In Thursday’s Morning Call I already indicated that the breakthrough of the neckline of the head & shoulder pattern has a price target of approximately 12,000 points.

The Three Best Hydrogen Stocks to Watch For in 2021

Hydrogen technology is the next big thing that is part of the Go Green movement.

In the recent few months, the emphasis on the use of hydrogen has increased with the greater significance of the technology in producing clean energy. Investors and analysts have been keenly following hydrogen stocks as they hold massive potential in the long-term.

The key aspect to mention is the new US administration looks very focused and keen to work on clean energy development. For that reason, hydrogen will in the top priority list to be among the future tech to be used in the production of green and clean energy. We have already seen various organizations expanding their hydrogen ecosystem.

So, it’s not surprising that hydrogen stocks are catching the headlines. The future lies in this technology. Let’s see the three best hydrogen stocks that hold the most potential.

Bloom Energy (BE)

Bloom Energy (BE) is a leading manufacturer and marketer of solid oxide fuel cells and is one of the first to join the hydrogen energy race. The company sees a bright future ahead with US President’s initiative for clean energy.

Considering the fundamentals, Bloom Energy looks solid with its cash position of $416.7 million, as of September 30, 2020. Whereas, the company ended last year with a debt reduction of $180.1 million, which now stands at $527.1 million of debt. The cash is still lower than the total debt, but the decrease in its debt shows that the company is moving in the right direction.

By the end of the last quarter of 2020, the company reported a revenue of $249.4 million, an increase of 16.8% year-over-year. Four different investor events coming up in March 2021, so investors should keenly observe what Bloom Energy has to offer—heading forward.

Ballard Power Systems (BLDP)

Ballard Power Systems (BLDP) is a developer and manufacturer of proton exchange membrane fuel cell products for markets and uses hydrogen as a fuel. Ballard shares have over 217% during the last year. The company has still much in power and has upside that can push the stock further this year.

Ballard Power has some big plans for the long-term. The company anticipates its annual revenue to be around $5.2 billion by 2030. This reflects a CAGR of 46% from its 2020 expected revenue of $115 million. In the past five years, the company’s revenue has grown at an average rate of 21%.

With the hydrogen market evolving, Ballard may have to increase its future outlook—if the market grows faster than expected. In that premise, the company has expected a 20% margin for its earnings before interest and taxes aren’t supported by a concrete plan. So, Ballard Power System (BLDP) is another key hydrogen stock to watch for in 2021.

Nikola Corp. (NKLA)

Nikola Corp. (NKLA) is a leading EV maker and a pioneer in the zero-emission concept. The company has jumped into the hydrogen fuel cell market. The company is popular for its hydrogen-powered truck, Nikola One, and has been part of several other hydrogen projects.

At the beginning of 2021, the company obtained an innovative electric rate schedule with Arizona Public Service Company. Based on the following deal, Nikola will work on the development of hydrogen-based fueling solutions for the transportation industry.

Analysts are mostly bullish on Nikola and if it continues to be successful with its hydrogen projects, it could become a potential investment option for hydrogen stock investors.

Did Nikola (NKLA) Get the GM Deal Wrong? JP Morgan is ‘skeptical’

With Nikola’s CEO’s unclear replies on the GM deal, investors move away as JP Morgan has its reservation on this deal.

Nikola Corp. (NKLA) was expected to a make with General Motors for producing and manufacturing its EV pick truck “Badger”. The deal seems to be over before it began.

The investors were quite enthused with the Nikola-GM Badger deal. The stock surged over $36 on Nov. 24 as the potential deal news re-emerged.

JP Morgan has shown doubts on this potential deal after the CEO of Nikola stepped away from replying on the future ‘Badger agreement’ between the EV maker and GM.

Replying to CNBC Host Jim Cramer, Nikola’s CEO Mark Russell said:

“We can’t comment on continuing discussions.”

This statement came as a big blow to Nikola stock. Shares of Nikola went down up to 17.4% on Wednesday and dropped 12.35% on Thursday. NKLA has dropped from as high as $36.92 on Nov. 24 to $30.24 on Nov. 26.

However, Russell added that Nikola was interested in GM’s car battery and hydrogen fuel cell systems.

JP Morgan analyst, Paul Coster thinks that the car companies will probably renegotiate on the prior announced $2 billion Badger deal. Paul expects that Nikola might just go for GM’s battery and fuel cell technologies instead of complete manufacturing of its Badger at GM.

The GM deal would have been closed by September 30, 2020, but a fraud accusation of short seller Hindenburg Research on Nikola for jacking up the stock price changed the scenario. This had the founder and Executive Chairman of the companyTrevor Milton to a dramatic exit.

When Cramer asked that will the company close the deal with GM, and is he going to offer some reassurance, Russell shook his head and said:

“Can’t do that, Jim. When we have something to tell you, we’ll let you know.”

Russell commented that they need to make sure that this deal is about business care and makes sense for their shareholders. The company wants a partner at this time that can enhance its ecosystem.

The reason why Nikola insists on having a partner is that their core objective is to make heavy EV trucks based on hydrogen technology. For this reason, they need to have someone like GM that has all the components Nikola is looking for.

Coster from JPM said that both the companies need to make a deal beneficial for both Nikola and GM. If the deal is not completed by December 3, 2020, he sees either of the party moving away from the agreement.

The CEO of Nikola highlighted that the company intends to raise money in one more tranche in 2021. With approximately $900 million cash in hand, the automaker believes that they can make it if the GM deal does not work.

With all the technicalities and what’s stopping Nikola to complete the unfinished business, the company needs to satisfy its shareholders and investors.

As we write this at 10:03 A.M. EDT, Nikola Corp. (NKLA) was trading at $29.50down by almost 2.76%.
