DraftKings (DKNG, $61.80) get buy rating, Wall Street-high price target at Needham

On Thursday, DraftKings  shares got a buy rating and Wall Street-high price target of $70 a share at Needham.

Needham analyst Brad Erickson initiated coverage of the sports betting company’s stock on Thursday. It views the company as one of the leading beneficiaries from online sports betting’s taking off in the U.S. – an opportunity that Needham estimates to be between $42 [billion] and $58 billion annually longer term.

According to Erickson, online providers' access to data creates a structurally better user experience vs. brick and mortar. For DraftKings in particular, the analyst sees its "datacentric approach to customer acquisition" as a force that’ll help the company "regularly exceed top-line forecasts."

Tickeron's analysis suggests: Momentum Indicator for DKNG turns positive, indicating new upward trend

DKNG saw its Momentum Indicator move above the 0 level on September 02, 2020. This is an indication that the stock could be shifting in to a new upward move. Traders may want to consider buying the stock or buying call options. Tickeron's A.I.dvisor looked at 2 similar instances where the indicator turned positive. In 2 of the 2 cases, the stock moved higher in the following days. The odds of a move higher are at 90%.

What's the Difference Between Tokens and Altcoins?

What's the Difference Between Tokens and Altcoins?

Between their inherently technical nature, multiple varieties and sub-varieties, and endless terminology, cryptocurrency (defined here as digital or virtual currencies that are encrypted using cryptography, powered by the immutable digital ledger known as the blockchain) represents a whole, complex world.All altcoins possess their own blockchain, independent from their source code, that records all transactions of their native coins. Many altcoins are variants, or forks, of Bitcoin that leverage that cryptocurrency’s open-source protocol as the basis.

4 Ways to Save for Retirement Without a 401(k)

4 Ways to Save for Retirement Without a 401(k)

401(k) plans are attractive savings options for good reasons: tax breaks, potential employer matching, and access to growth investments.Roth IRA contributions are made in after-tax dollars, and withdrawals for account owners age 59 ½ or older are tax free (if the account is at least five years old). Investors with an individual adjusted gross income below $32,000 can even claim between 10 and 50 percent of contributions as a saver’s tax credit.

Artificial Intelligence for Language Translation?

Some use cases – predicting earthquakes, recognizing objects, and comparing medical scans, for example – offer tantalizing glimpses of a promising future.Now, MIT researchers have announced an “unsupervised” language translation model whose early returns signal a future with “faster, more efficient computer-based translations of far more languages.” Most widely-used translation programs (like Google’s) learn via models.
