"90 seconds to get insured. 3 minutes to get paid"
If you haven't already noticed, we are living in a world of immediate gratification. Insurance is just another sector that's ripe to be disrupted by better efficiency.

- Disrupting the archaic industry of insurance
-High NPS score of 70. Industry average is 70.

NVDA Nvidia Exciting Upward Trend! NVDA (Nvidia) is an exciting stock to be in. Given their processing tech and the ability to branch into many cloud businesses such as gaming, processing, and storage, their technology has become a necessity, and demand consistently exceeds supply.
I got into NVIDIA as a long-term growth play when it was trading at $360. The breakout above previous ATH with volume was an obvious signal to buy, along with STRONG fundamentals and macroeconomic environment making it a recipe for the next rocket.
I don't typically buy into overbought stocks, but with the environment around stocks like TSLA and AAPL making it obvious a tech bubble was forming, it looked like a stock that wasn't getting as much attention yet given the news cycles were sparse, and product launches upcoming in Q4 were going to be great fodder for future growth.
I played it right, and the stock went all the way up to $585, now in a correction pattern.
Based on the Fib extensions and Elliot wave patterns, this is a very healthy growth stock with potential to shatter its ATH in the next 6 months.

Gig economy winner. $FVRR or $UPWK?FA,
- Structural headwinds through gig economy, freelancing and 'escape the rat race' theme
- 3Y revenue growth 22%
- Improving gross margins. 70%
- Recent insider purchases
- Like shopify, but for talent. Online talent marketplace.
-Value? Market cap half of Fiverr with revenue twice as much.
TA,
- Major trend reversal. Short term moving averages crossing Long term MA
- Trendline support
- 120MA support 4H
- Higher highs and lows
Concerns,
- Less than expected revenue growth during lockdown. YOY growth 19% at $87.5M
Main competitor Fiverr reported YoY growth of 82% at 47.1m. Growth is key.
- Fiverr reporter a net loss of only -$0.1M while UPWK reported a loss of -$10M.
-Freelancers prefer Fiverr over Upwork.
- Fiverr better glassdoor ratings (4.3 Vs. 3.8)
- Higher volume on red days
Seems more like a technical trade considering the above points or a value play. Fiverr is still the better company fundamentally. Until Upwork can show above significant growth rates, the stock would not gain much momentum. 20% growth for a growth stock with people looking for jobs online is not enough in my opinion.

Long over $7. Recent negative press attention seemed to wear offRECENT NEWS
SDC (7.12 -7.75%): Missed expectations for Q1 EPS and revs. Q1 unique aligner shipments rose +12% yr/yr to 122,751. During its call, co noted that it shipped 10,500 aligner orders in April and between 11,000-15,000 in May; it projects the current run rate to be circa 22,000 shipments in a 30-day period. Co commented that since Q1, it has seen "robust performance" from its impression kit business despite reductions in marketing spend that amounted to approx. 90% over the past 60 days -- kit and scan volume was down by circa 40% over that span. Downgraded to Underperform from Buy at BofA/Merrill, which sees suppressed advertising spend levels and other overhangs contributing to a slower recovery through the year for co than previously projected.

SmileDirectClub files $2.8 bln lawsuit against NBC for "defamatory" nightly news story (6.76 -0.10)
SDC has filed a lawsuit seeking approximately $2.8 bln from NBC Universal Media and reporter Vicky Nguyen for "knowingly and intentionally making factually inaccurate, misleading and defamatory claims about the company and its platform" on an NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt report.
According to SDC, NBC's February 13, 2020 ‘Nightly News' report contained more than 40 false and misleading statements about SmileDirectClub and the treatment patients receive from the hundreds of board-certified doctors who use the company's platform to treat patients.
SDC claims its reputation was wrongly sullied and its business unjustly harmed as a result of the NBC story according to the suit.
In the wake of NBC's report, and as a direct result of it, SDC's market cap plummeted by $950 million. SmileDirectClub is seeking to recover treble damages pursuant to Tennessee's Consumer Protection Act.
SDC (6.45 +19.67%): Co was issued a patent for its SmileShop intellectual property from the USPTO; the patent, says co, "ensures no clear aligner competitor will be able to duplicate SmileDirectClub's unique model for 18 years." The patent encompasses the SmileShop concept and process. Co also announced that it is making plans to reopen its SmileShops in the US, Canada, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, the UK, and Ireland beginning in May. The stock rises to one-month highs on above 3x average volume.
Growth Stocks Are Taking Back LeadershipStocks fell hard after the June 10 Federal Reserve meeting. The S&P 500 bounced after holding 3,000, and some interesting changes have occurred amid the volatility.
Simply put, money is rotating back to “growth” and away from “value.” Recent weeks saw a big surge of interest in beaten-down “reopening” stocks like airlines, banks, industrials, energy. But now it’s fading.
A comparison between the Russell 2000 ETF (IWM) against the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) is a good proxy for this trend. IWM, heavy on smaller industrial and financial companies, rose 30 percent between the lows of May 14 and the June 8 high. QQQ, loaded with large technology companies, rose just 15 percent over that period.
But now everything is changing. IWM is down about 6 percent from its pre-Fed highs, while QQQ is 1 percent higher. IWM hasn’t even benefited much from strong economic numbers recently, like the New York Fed’s Empire State Manufacturing Index or retail sales. (Those should have lifted cyclical value stocks more.)
The technicals of each ETF also speak volumes because QQQ is above its February highs, while IWM is stuck below its 200-day simple moving average (SMA).
This growth-versus-value debate has occurred a few times in recent years. Value briefly outperformed in late 2016, and again late last year. Both times, it faded and the dominant theme of large-cap technology returned. Based on the current price action, the same thing could be happening again.
TTD BLUE SKY BREAKOUT to SLINGSHOTTTD went through a 10 day consolidation after breaking out from 316 to 370.
Currently set up for a potential slingshot to hit 400. Price is looking strong holding its footing above the
10 day EMA.
Fundamentals are showing accelerating revenues and expanding margins due to its resilience to the pandemic
and mostly benefiting from the shift to work from home and e-commerce. One of the few high growth stocks
that's taking a slice of Facebook and Google market share in advertising. With revenue growth of 37% YoY and
top margins of 76% compared to sector median of 7.24%, this is definitely one for the long haul.
Let me know your thoughts and best of luck on your trades.
