DraftKings (DKNG, $67.40) got price target hikes from analysts, following Q4 results

DraftKings (DKNG, $67.40) got price target hikes from analysts, following Q4 results

Sports betting company DraftKings  got price target hikes from  analysts following Friday’s fourth quarter results.

The company’s fourth-quarter revenue doubled from the year-ago quarter.  It boosted its revenue estimates for 2021 to between $900 million and $1 billion, up from its previous view between $750 million and $850 million.

Goldman Sachs analyst Stephen Grambling increased his price target to $73 a share from $71. "Management highlighted stronger handle in iGaming and sports betting during the Super Bowl in [Michigan/Virginia] than in existing states during their go live years, the addition of apps to Google Play   (Android users represent about 40% of smartphone users per StatCounter), and 50% cross-sell into iGaming (vs. previously about 30%) all driving this momentum, which we anticipate will be supplemented by a normalizing sports calendar," Grambling said. The analyst raised his  revenue expectation to $1.01 billion in 2021 from his previous view of $885 million.

Loop Capital maintained their buy rating, while raising their price target to $105 a share from $100. It boosted revenue guidance to $1.11 billion.  Loop analyst Daniel Adam said, “The bears have long argued that online gaming and sports betting was essentially a 'race to zero,' implying that operators like DKNG need to spend aggressively on promos to attract users and generate revenue".

Adam added, "We completely disagree with the bear argument. In our view, the fact that DKNG was profitable in [New Jersey] last year, particularly given the impact of COVID in first-half 2020 as there were no traditional sports for a few months in [the first and second quarters] completely undermines the bear thesis."

The company targets high-growth urban and suburban markets, overseeing a portfolio that spans residential, commercial, hospitality, and parking assets near key metro stations.

I've always been impressed by how Visa (V) commands the global payments landscape. As an open-loop network, it connects issuers, acquirers, merchants, and consumers without issuing cards or extending credit itself. The VisaNet platform processes over 65,000 transactions per second across more than 200 countries, supporting a ~52% share of the global credit card market and ~60% of debit. This scale generates powerful network effects, where greater adoption benefits everyone involved and creates formidable barriers to entry.
Following the Kenvue consumer health spin-off, Johnson & Johnson has transformed into a focused healthcare leader, emphasizing Innovative Medicine (pharmaceuticals) and MedTech (devices). In my view, this repositioning sharpens the company's edge in high-margin areas such as oncology, immunology, neuroscience, cardiovascular, surgery, and vision, where its diversified portfolio and R&D efficiency provide clear competitive advantages.
I've long appreciated ASML Holding N.V.'s dominant position in the semiconductor lithography market. The company commands over 90% share in advanced deep ultraviolet (DUV) immersion systems and 100% in EUV lithography—the critical technology for chips below 7nm nodes used in AI, high-performance computing, and memory. This near-monopoly comes from decades of R&D investment, exclusive partnerships like Zeiss for optics, and a vast installed base that generates steady service revenue. From what I see, competitors such as Nikon and Canon remain far behind in EUV, sticking to mature nodes.
I've been watching Micron Technology (MU) closely through its recent volatility, which mirrors the semiconductor sector's heightened sensitivity to AI demand and supply constraints. The stock saw a sharp post-earnings sell-off tied to elevated capital expenditure plans, yet it has rebounded with surging DRAM prices—up 90-95%—and memory suppliers booked out for years. From what I see, broader tech optimism, including key partnerships and persistent supply tightness, is driving upward momentum. This positions MU as a pivotal player in high-bandwidth memory (HBM) for data centers. Trading near recent highs around $368, the shares highlight investor focus on Micron's critical role in the AI infrastructure expansion under these constrained industry conditions.
I've always appreciated how Mastercard (MA) maintains a commanding position in the global payments industry, processing transactions across 3.4 billion cards at 150 million merchant locations worldwide. The network effects here create a formidable moat—increased adoption by issuers, acquirers, and consumers just reinforces its dominance. What stands out to me is how Mastercard is evolving beyond a pure processor into a services-first platform. Value-added services (VAS)—covering cybersecurity, data analytics, and consulting—are now approaching 40% of revenues and growing at double the rate of traditional payments.
MU shares are declining approximately -6.00% in premarket trading on April 2, 2026, pulling back to roughly $353.70 from the prior session's close of $376.27. The primary catalyst is a sweeping new round of tariff announcements from the Trump administration, dubbed by markets as "Liberation Day 2.0," which has sparked a broad risk-off selloff across technology and semiconductor stocks
Shares of Robinhood Markets are down approximately 6.15% in Thursday's intraday session, trading around $65.80 after closing at $70.11 on April 1, 2026. Wolfe Research delivered a sharp blow by cutting its price target on HOOD by 30%, citing persistent weakness in crypto trading volumes as a core drag on revenue.
Shares of Iridium Communications (IRDM) surged approximately +11.00% in Thursday's session, rising from a prior close of $28.52 to an intraday high near $31.76. A broad-based equity market rally drove significant gains across communication and satellite sector stocks, as investor sentiment sharply reversed after days of macro-driven selling pressure tied to tariff fears.

ASRT stock surged +66% over the past 30 days, driven by strong Q4 2025 earnings beat and optimistic 2026 guidance highlighting Rolvedon growth. Over the past quarter, the stock rose +117%, fueled by improving gross margins, stable product demand, and analyst price target increases.
