01/24/22 01/2407:15 01/24/2207:15 | Plug Power price target lowered to $27 from $44 at TruistTruist analyst Tristan Richardson lowered the firm's price target on Plug Power to $27 from $44 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares as part of a broader research note on Alternative Energy. A broad rotation out of growth equities has disproportionately impacted the sector performance, and while the upcoming Q4 earnings season could offer improved visibility to supply chain alleviation, residential demand is also "seemingly muted", the analyst tells investors in a research note. |

Zenvia
Goldman Sachs analyst… Goldman Sachs analyst Diego Aragao downgraded Zenvia to Neutral from Buy with a $3.40 price target. The company's recently closed acquisitions imply potential leverage-related risks in the medium term, and its improvements have not consistently translated into margin improvement over recent quarters, Aragao tells investors in a research note. The analyst says "constrained" financial and stock liquidity add risk to Zenvia's story and limit its re-rating potential in a tough market environment. ShowHide Related Items >><<

Fly Intel: Top five weekend stock stories »

Catch up on the… Catch up on the weekend's top five stories with this list compiled by The Fly: 1. Tesla (TSLA) reported Q2 deliveries of 254,695, with 4% subject to operating lease accounting, and production of 258,580 vehicles. Tesla delivered 16,162 Model S/X and 238,533 Model 3/Y. The company said, "In the second quarter, we produced over 258,000 vehicles and delivered over 254,000 vehicles, despite ongoing supply chain challenges and factory shutdowns beyond our control. June 2022 was the highest vehicle production month in Tesla's history." 2. A consortium backed by KKR (KKR) is emerging as the frontrunner to buy a stake in Deutsche Telekom's (DTEGY) sprawling wireless tower portfolio, Bloomberg's Dinesh Nair, Eyk Henning, and Aaron Kirchfeld reported, citing people familiar with the matter. KKR has made an offer in conjunction with Global Infrastructure Partners and Stonepeak, the people said. Their bid is seen as more attractive than a rival proposal from Brookfield Asset Management (BAM) and Spain's Cellnex Telecom, the sources added. 3. China's decision to ease its entry requirements for international travelers is a step toward a fuller reopening and away from a zero-COVID strategy. It also signals an eventual reopening of its Macau casinos, Teresa Rivas wrote in this week's edition of Barron's. It may be the right time to bet on Las Vegas Sands, the author says. Las Vegas Sands (LVS) gets a little over two-thirds of its business from Macau, with the remainder coming from its Marina Bay Sands property in Singapore. The latter is an underappreciated asset that provides earnings visibility, while the former could see profits jump when Macau more fully reopens, following in the footsteps of Las Vegas and other U.S. cities, where gross gaming revenue has exploded above prepandemic levels, Rivas added. 4. Comcast (CMCSA) subsidiary Universal's "Minions: The Rise of Gru' won this weekend's domestic box office with a $125.2M four-day opening. This includes $107M for the three days. Overseas, the film surpassed $86M on Sunday for a global total of $200M-plus. These numbers make "Minions: The Rise of Gru" debut one of the top starts ever at the domestic box office for an animated movie, not adjusted for inflation. The movie is a sequel to 2015's "Minions" and the fifth entry in the "Despicable Me" franchise. 5. Activision Blizzard (ATVI), Advance Auto Parts (AAP), AutoZone (AZO), Genuine Parts (GPC) and O'Reilly Automotive (ORLY) saw positive mentions in this week's edition of Barron's, while Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY) was mentioned cautiously.

Tesla's FY22 goal of 1.5M deliveries 'potentially a stretch,' says Bernstein »
20:05 07/04/22 07/0420:05 07/04/2220:05
TSLA
Tesla
Bernstein analyst Toni… Bernstein analyst Toni Sacconaghi notes that Tesla reported Q2 deliveries of 255,000, down from 310,000 in Q1, and below muted consensus expectations of 261,000. The analyst believes that the shortfall in deliveries was attributable to a slower than expected re-ramp of the Shanghai facility, particularly in May. Furthermore, Sacconaghi thinks Tesla's full year 2022 goal of 1.5M deliveries or 60% growth is "potentially a stretch," but 50% growth or 1.4M units "appears plausible," with expanding production in China and incremental contribution from Berlin and Austin. The key question for the quarter is profitability, the analyst argues. While recent comments from Musk that Austin and Berlin are "gigantic money furnaces right now" losing "billions of dollars" are likely, Sacconaghi believes that they signal some potential profitability pressure amid slow ramps and rising input costs. He has an Underperform rating and a price target of $450 on the shares. ShowHide Related Items >><<

Japanese chemicals… Japanese chemicals supplier Showa Denko K.K. expects to further raise prices and cut back unprofitable product lines as it grapples with a barrage of economic challenges confronting the $550B semiconductor industry, Bloomberg's Takashi Mochizuki and Yuki Furukawa report. That's on top of at least a dozen hikes already this year, reflecting COVID-19 supply snarls, surging energy costs from the Ukraine war and the yen's dramatic weakening, Chief Financial Officer Hideki Somemiya told Bloomberg News in an interview. The situation is unlikely to significantly improve until at least 2023, he added. Showa Denko, which supplies essential chip fabrication materials to the likes of TSMC (TSM) and Infineon (IFNNY), has been forced to drastically increase the cost it passes on to customers, Somemiya said.
