Fueled by intense social media attention, Robinhood and newer investors getting into stock trading for the first time, stocks that were completely off the radar as recently as a year ago, such as AMC Entertainment (AMC) and GameStop (GME), have drawn huge interest. Retail traders have driven these stock prices to the moon with the aim of sticking it to the big Wall Street hedge funds, who often short these names.

The traders also covered short positions in 5,000-strike call options initially, and build-up fresh long positions as they expected the Nifty to move above 5,000 tomorrow. TSM data for the September futures suggested short covering in the initial balance (IB) range of 4,905-4,934.

Analysis: In conclusion, Zacks Research's "Strong Sell" rating for Tesla's stock underscores the significant headwinds and challenges facing the company. While Tesla has undeniably revolutionized the automotive industry and propelled the adoption of electric vehicles, its path forward is fraught with uncertainties. From intensifying competition and production challenges to financial and regulatory risks, Tesla's stock faces considerable downward pressure according to Zacks' assessment. Investors should carefully weigh these factors and conduct thorough due diligence before making investment decisions regarding Tesla's stock.

Heebner and his team initiated a position of over 840,000 shares in Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:GS) between January and March. The investment bank is valued at a small premium to the book value of its equity, with a P/B ratio of 1.1. Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:GS) has done well at converting its assets into net income, however, and as a result it is in value territory with P/E multiples in the 11-12 range. Growth has been slow but the company does not need to improve by much in order to look like a buy. Cliff Asness's AQR Capital Management was also buying Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:GS) last quarter (find Asness's favorite stocks). Rock-Tenn Company (NYSE:RKT) was another of Capital Growth's cheap picks with the filing disclosing ownership of 1.3 million shares. The $7.3 billion market cap manufacturer of packaging products experienced a large percentage increase in net income in its most recent quarter compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year.

The smartwatch cometh 21.54% of Fitbit's outstanding shares were sold short as of March 15. That's a fairly sizable figure for a company that's turning a profit and trading with a reasonable valuation. Fitbit's trailing price-to-earnings ratio is just above 19, largely in line with the broader market. The problem is that Fitbit derives virtually all of its revenue from the sale of its wearable fitness trackers, a market that could dry up, or even vanish outright, in the years ahead.

Since institutional investors own more than half the issued stock, the board will likely have to pay attention to their preferences. We note that hedge funds don't have a meaningful investment in ServisFirst Bancshares. Looking at our data, we can see that the largest shareholder is BlackRock, Inc. with 14% of shares outstanding. In comparison, the second and third largest shareholders hold about 9.7% and 5.8% of the stock. Furthermore, CEO Thomas Broughton is the owner of 2.4% of the company's shares.

The 2,400 MW Hornsea 4 project, which had secured a Contract for Difference (CfD) in September 2024, encountered adverse developments that increased the project's execution risk and undermined its value creation potential. In response, Ørsted has terminated the project's supply chain contracts and ceased further spending, stepping back from the CfD awarded in the sixth allocation round. Rasmus Errboe, Group President and CEO of Ørsted, expressed the company's commitment to supporting the UK government's offshore wind targets but emphasized a value-focused approach to capital allocation. "After careful consideration, we've decided to discontinue the development of the Hornsea 4 project in its current form, well ahead of the planned Final Investment Decision later this year," said Errboe. He added that Ørsted would retain the project rights and seek future development opportunities that align with shareholder value.

The invocation of pledged shares also means that the UB Group?s total promoter stake in USL has declined from 11.13% at the end of the September quarter to 10.91% at present. UBHL, which is the group?s holding company, and its subsidiary Kingfisher Finvest, together hold the bulk of Mallya?s stake in the liquor company. Over the past year, the group?s stake has seen a decline largely on account of the sale of shares by a consortium of banks that had lent to Kingfisher Airlines. The State Bank of India -led consortium had sold 26 lakh shares, which they held as collateral in the open market in April 2013, to recover part of its dues, and UBHL has challenged the sale in the Bombay High Court. In July, UBHL had sold 6.97% stake to Diageo as part of a share purchase agreement, but the transaction was annulled last month by the Karnataka High Court while hearing a winding-up petition. Both UBHL and Diageo have said that they intend to appeal against the order annulling the sale.

Implementing a buyback programme In February 2022, Mattel made an announcement that its short-term capital management objective was to implement a $200 million (£153.3m) share buyback, which is 2.5% of the current market capitalisation. 4. Financial Achievements at Mattel Mattel's net sales stabilised and then accelerated, reaching 18% growth in constant currency in 2021. The lockdown during the pandemic seemed to motivate parents to find entertainment for their children beyond digital devices and toys came to the rescue. The affection for Mattel toys developed over these two years is expected to translate into increased purchases of similar toys by children and further drive sales in a positive direction. Mattel is once again starting to rapidly gain in popularity.

Other Chinese tech giants have also considered buybacks. Nasdaq-listed search-engine giant Baidu Inc. said in June that its board approved a $1 billion buyback program. E-commerce titan Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. said last month that it plans to implement a previously announced $6 billion share-repurchase program. The New York-listed company hasn't made any repurchases under that program, according to a filing. —Shan Li and Quentin Webb contributed to this article.

Despite the large difference between upfront sum and total deal value, the research collaboration and global exclusive licensing agreement with Sanofi is Ablynx's second largest regarding upfront payments. On top of the list is the 2013 deal between Ablynx and pharma partner Abbvie with US$175m. But whereas Abbvie had secured access to a defined Phase III-ready Nanobody, the scope of the Sanofi deal is completely different. The collaboration gives Sanofi access to certain – but unspecified – Nanobodies in Ablynx's existing portfolio as well as access to Ablynx's scientists and proprietary Nanobody platform. More specifically, Sanofi gains exclusive global rights to certain multi-specific Nanobodies against selected targets, with options for similar rights to additional targets. Sanofi could receive up to eight potential Nanobody product candidates.

Major General Ivo de Jong, Deputy Director of the DMO, and Roman Köhne, Managing Director of Rheinmetall Waffe Munition GmbH, signed the contract on 30 July 2020. This is another good example of the fruitful, longstanding cooperation between the DMO and the Düsseldorf-based weapon and ammunition specialist. The framework agreement follows a partnership agreement signed by the two parties just over a year ago and further underscores the customer's strong confidence in Rheinmetall's ammunition expertise. By means of this agreement, the DMO wants to source safe, state-of-the-art ammunition for the Dutch armed forces – both today and tomorrow. Under the aforementioned partnership agreement, Rheinmetall has already assumed full responsibility for the complete 155mm portfolio, which extends from the Assegai ammunition family to modular charges and fuses.

There are some stocks that are everyone's favorites; I believe Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL ) and The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE: KO ) fall into this category. Then there are others that a lot of investors are skeptical about; such stocks carry a high short interest as investors bet that their price will go down. However, you often make the biggest gains in stocks that most investors are betting against if you are able to correctly determine that the bears are mistaken. I believe that the bears have got it wrong with Tesla Motors Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA ) and Research In Motion Ltd (NASDAQ: BBRY ), but the same cannot be said of Cliffs Natural Resources Inc (NYSE: CLF ). This electric car maker is on a tear Tesla Motors Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA )' stock shows the most classic case of a short squeeze.

Looking at the market for high-yield stocks, I find that two companies stand out from the crowd, and I mean that in a very positive way. Company no. 1 is mortgage investment firm New Residential Investment Corp. (NYSE: NRZ ), my 2016 high-yield top pick for income investors. New Residential Investment Corp. combines what dividend investors like in income vehicles: Strong core earnings growth, a low valuation, a covered dividend, and an astonishingly high dividend yield north of 15 percent. Add to the mix a $200 million stock buyback that management announced in January and it is easy to see why I like the company. My price target for New Residential is $20. That being said, though, company no. 2, Starwood Property Trust, Inc. (NYSE: STWD ) follows closely behind New Residential Investment Corp., for obvious reasons. Starwood Property Trust is a household name for high-yield dividend investors that like to invest in commercial real estate via a publicly traded mortgage REIT.

Barclays analysts described it as "implausible". In Europe an airline must be majority-owned by EU investors in order to maintain its traffic rights under international air service agreements.Lufthansa is currently almost 69 percent owned by German investors but 13 percent is in the hands of U.S. investors and a further 9 percent is owned by other nationalities. In addition, if Etihad wished to buy more than 30 percent of Lufthansa, it would have to make an offer for the company as a whole according to German takeover rules. Etihad's local rival Qatar Airways has built up a 20 percent stake in British Airways-owner IAG (ICAG.L) by purchasing shares on the open market. That has boosted links between Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. Credit Suisse said Lufthansa, though, already had joint ventures with Singapore Airlines (SIAL.SI), Air China (601111.SS) and All Nippon Airways (9202.T) covering the region.

"In addition, we are excited to announce the buyback of the Coach business in Australia and New Zealand from our distributor, with an expected closing in the third fiscal quarter. As a result, we will be creating a Tapestry hub and center of excellence in Sydney to drive growth across our portfolio, further unlocking the value of a multi-brand operating model." The news was included in the company's second quarter results announcement in which Tapestry revealed a 35 per cent increase in sales, largely fuelled by the addition of the Kate Spade operations to its figures after its acquisition last July. Net sales totalled $1.79 billion for the second quarter, up from $1.32 billion in the prior year, while net income was $63 million. Luis said the second quarter performance exceeded the company's expectations, with a return to growth for Coach, improved sales at Stuart Weitzman and the contribution of Kate Spade which continued to make progress after its integration into the business.

So, I'm tempted to invest in Tesco shares and see what happens in October. If it does announce a buyback or a shake-up of some sort, I expect its share price will rebound. Tesco's forward price-to-earnings ratio is a reasonable 12. And the 4% dividend yield is also attractive enough to make this a viable long-term investment.

As a result, Kyocera has fallen behind its specialist competitors as reflected by its effectively flat stock price over the last ten years compared to Maruwa Co., Ltd., TDK Corporation, and Ibiden Co., Ltd., which saw gains of +1,118%, +191%, and +159% respectively over the same period. Kyocera's plan to sell one-third of its KDDI holdings and implement a JPY400 billion buyback over the next two years appears to be reactionary rather than carefully considered. Kyocera owns cross-shareholdings of over JPY1.7 trillion, including its 15.29% stake in KDDI, and received a total dividend of almost JPY50 billion in the last fiscal year. We believe that, in the short-term, Kyocera should use a mix of leverage and sales of cross-shareholdings to finance JPY1 trillion of buybacks over the next four years.

Companies that have executed substantial share buyback programs have managed to perform considerably better than their peers in the U.S. market over the past five years. The Nasdaq BuyBack Achievers Index (Index: ^DRB) tracks the performance of U.S. companies that have reduced their outstanding issued shares by at least 5% over the previous 12 months. This index has outperformed the broader market by more than 6% per year over the past 10 years and by 5% every year for the past five years. Warren Buffett is a strong supporter of companies that utilise excess company capital to buy its own stock. He explained in his 2011 letter to Berkshire Hathaway shareholders that buying up a company's own undervalued stock is a sure way to make money for shareholders. Share buybacks provide an alternative and more flexible method for companies to return excess, low-yielding capital to shareholders.

By Peter Wahlstrom, CFA With its widely recognizable PointsPlus and ProPoints programs, Weight Watchers ( WTW ) has established not only a successful weight management program but a business model that generates substantial cash flow. We like the long-term prospects of this wide economic moat firm, but we acknowledge that the next few quarters could be choppy, given recent miscues. Specifically, in the first six months of 2012, Weight Watchers reported hiccups related to its emerging corporate and international businesses, and management has drawn criticism over the timing of its $1.5 billion "modified Dutch auction" tender offer. Since mid-March, shares are off 36%, compared to a 1% drop in the S&P 500 Index. Shares currently sit in 4-star territory at a more than 30% discount to our $77 fair value estimate and, at 11.6 times our 2012 earnings per share estimate, we view Weight Watchers' stock as a solid medium-term idea for investors.

Zynga's $1.5 billion sitting idle on the balance sheet could be used to invest in new ventures or be committed to a larger buyback (only $200 million is currently authorized). The cash gives Zynga a good amount of breathing room and could be a large source of upside if used in the right way.

Yeah. That's a great question. So first thing, for everyone to understand, our share buyback program is not just to defend the stock price. I mean, I know that's -- and you always, of course, want to buy when the prices are in your favor. But if you believe what we believe about where we're going as a Company, the pipeline we have in TriumphPay and some of the things we're going to do in Triumph Business Capital, then there is no higher internal rate of return investment we could make than buying back our shares at these prices or even higher than these prices, which is why, as we've talked about, I don't think you'll see material growth of our balance sheet. We're churning our balance sheet and we intend to use excess capital to steadily repurchase shares.

But if the volumes are significantly lower, we still have a major dislocation," said Shell CEO, Ben van Beurden, on the company's first quarter earnings call.

Because Hollysys Automation Technologies Ltd (NASDAQ:HOLI) has faced bearish sentiment from hedge fund managers, logic holds that there was a specific group of hedge funds that slashed their full holdings by the end of the third quarter. Interestingly, Noam Gottesman's GLG Partners dropped the largest stake of the 700 funds followed by Insider Monkey, worth about $1.5 million in stock, and David Costen Haley's HBK Investments was right behind this move, as the fund cut about $0.5 million worth. These moves are intriguing to say the least, as aggregate hedge fund interest fell by 1 funds by the end of the third quarter.

As a result, management should have room to increase the payout by significantly more than the 11% profit increase Home Depot is expected to achieve for the year. (EPS should rise by 14% thanks to those stock buybacks.) Sure, income investors aren't likely to see a raise that rivals last year's 29% hike. But it wouldn't be reckless of the management team to boost the annual dividend by 15% or 20%, given the rock-solid results and impressive growth Home Depot has delivered over the past 12 months.

We also repurchased $810 million worth of MSCI shares for the full year. During the fourth quarter and through yesterday, we repurchased over $425 million worth of MSCI shares in alignment with our shareholder-centric capital allocation policy. In the fourth quarter, our operating metrics included organic subscription run rate growth of 8%, excluding FX headwinds, and 7% on a reported basis; asset-based fee run rate growth of 15%; and a retention rate of 93%. Our ABF run rate growth was driven by higher average AUM, aided by the highest quarterly cash inflows into equity ETFs linked to MSCI indices since the end of 2021 at more than $48 billion.

Royal Boskalis Westminster N.V. (Boskalis) and Smit Internationale N.V. (Smit) announced that they have signed a merger protocol for a full merger of the two companies. The transaction will be effectuated through an all cash public offer of $84.5 ex dividend (instead of cum dividend as previously anticipated) by Boskalis for all outstanding shares in Smit. The business combination will create a world class maritime service provider offering a strong platform for further growth. The strategic rationale of the transaction was already supported by the Board of Management and Supervisory Board of both Boskalis and Smit. As previously indicated two large shareholders of Smit, Delta Lloyd Groep and Janivo Beleggingen, have already confirmed an irrevocable undertaking to support and accept the proposed offer. In the merger protocol, Boskalis has agreed to a 2009 dividend payment to Smit shareholders of $3.87 per share. RBS has provided to Smit a fairness opinion with regard to the offer price.

B2Gold and other gold stocks have been more popular lately due to the spike in inflation. Investors hedge against rising inflation by diversifying their portfolios into other assets such as gold and commodities. For example, in February, they acquired all issued and outstanding shares of Sabina Gold & Silver Corp. (OTCMKTS: SGSVF ), which has mining operations in Nunavut, Canada. B2Gold also agreed in March with Snowline Gold Corp. (OTCMKTS: SNWGF ), another gold mining company, to purchase approximately 4 million shares of common stock.

Improved capital returns to shareholders in the form of share buybacks should keep share count flattish this year, as the company repurchased $2.1 billion worth of stock during the quarter. The main blemishes in the quarter were the building pressure in professional services revenue, deceleration in the Americas, and the expected slowdown in current remaining performance obligation, or CRPO, included in guidance. First-quarter revenue grew 11% year over year (13% in constant currency) to $8.25 billion, versus high end of guidance of $8.18 billion. Strength was driven by MuleSoft, international, and a more buoyant core business. CRPO grew 12% year over year in constant currency, which finally bumped above revenue growth, albeit by a slim margin. Professional services were weak and the overall demand environment remains challenging, with small business notably weaker but vertical solutions stronger.

Sure enough, here's yet another example that Buffett knews what the heck he was doing when he acquired five huge, solidly profitable companies to the benefit of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:BRK.A) shareholders with little dilution. Of course, that's not to mention Buffett has also been actively working to reverse at least some of that dilution, most notably through the company's recent substantial share buybacks. Even still, let's put things in perspective by digging a little deeper to see just how effective these acquisitions have been.

Some investors in growing companies, however, might not want to see companies employ cash on shareholders but rather plough it all back into the company for more capital growth. Although, as JPMorgan Chase boss Jamie Dimon put it earlier this year, and might also be said for Amazon and co, they do it "because our cup runneth over". But as legendary investor Warren Buffett and his sidekick Charlie Munger, have argued many times, a bulging balance sheet should not be the only reason: "Charlie and I favour repurchases when two conditions are met: first, a company has ample funds to take care of the operational liquidity and needs of its business; second, its stock is selling at a material discount to the company's intrinsic business value, conservatively calculated. "The second of those is often wilfully ignored."
