  • Early Morning Vibes: 3 Best Performing Stocks Under $3

    Early Morning Vibes: 3 Best Performing Stocks Under $3

    On December 8, American stock exchanges closed at historic highs. The S&P 500 Index climbed 0.28% to 3702 points, the Dow Jones added 0.35%, the NASDAQ rose 0.5%. The purchases spurred hope for fiscal stimulus, as well as the start of the UK vaccine distribution. The health and energy sectors were the top gains, rising 0.73% and 1.57%, respectively. The real estate segment turned out to be an outsider, losing 0.5%.

    Corporate news

    Tesla (TSLA: + 1.3%) announced a $ 5 billion additional share issue.

    Productivity software maker Smartsheet (SMAR: + 11%) reported strong quarterly results and improved management forecasts.

    Apparel retailer Stitch Fix (SFIX: + 39%) posted a good quarterly report, with a pleasant surprise for investors the company’s profit at a consensus loss.

    Today, world stock markets are showing mostly positive dynamics. The likelihood of accepting an economic aid package is increasing. The day before, Treasury Secretary Stephen Mnuchin presented House Speaker Nancy Pelosi a $ 916 billion economic support bill. Unlike the bipartisan stimulus package last week, the bill provides for a one-time payment of $ 600 to each citizen instead of $ 300 weekly in addition to the unemployment. Republican leaders have already expressed support for Mnuchin’s bill. We believe that the congressmen have not yet been so close to a compromise in the past few months, and this is encouraging.

    Another supportive factor was a report released by the FDA that the Pfizer / BioNTech anticancer vaccine is completely safe and highly effective. The probability of its approval on December 10 is close to 100%, and on the 11th, the distribution of the drug in the United States may begin. We estimate the risk that the pharmaceutical giant will face difficulties in mass production of the vaccine as minimal, although not zero.
