Buy Surging Sleep Number (SNBR) Stock as Housing Market Play?

October 10, 2020

Shares of Sleep Number SNBR have soared 110% in the last six months to more than double the Home Furnishing-Appliance Market, as people upgrade their living spaces during the pandemic. More importantly, home buying is surging amid the record-low mortgage rates and a desire for more space during the coronavirus.

Sleep Number is set to release its Q3 FY20 results on Wednesday, October 14. So should investors consider buying the high-end bed firm’s stock as a longer-term bet on the housing market?

The Quick Pitch

U.S. home sales surged 10.5% on an annual basis in August, which came after July’s huge growth that represented the strongest monthly gain ever recorded, dating back to 1968. And now the housing market is finally being driven by millennials, which has industry analysts projecting a multi-year boom for the market, as the largest portion of the generation start to get married and have kids.

Oregon Ducks LB Sampson Niu may not play in 2020 for personal reasons originally appeared on NBC Sports Northwest

Oregon has already lost linebacker Troy Dye to the NFL but another contributor from the front seven may also not be in the lineup this season.

Senior Sampson Niu did not participate in Oregon’s first day of training camp on Friday and may miss the 2020 college football season due to an undisclosed personal issue, head coach Mario Cristobal said following Friday’s practice.

“With Sampson there’s some things that he’s been taking care of and he’s a guy, I think we all know we all love him. Very tight and personal with him,” said Cristobal.

“He may have some things to figure out personally and there’s a possibility he may not play this year. But until that’s confirmed I’ll like to grant him his space until we figure that out for

A little more than a year ago, we covered The Joint Corp. (JYNT), a small-cap specialized franchisor of chiropractic clinics in the United States. The company initially grabbed our attention because of its snowballing expansion over the past few years, causing shares to jump from $2 to $20 during a relatively short period of time.

We are particularly interested in franchises with the potential to scale, as many successful brands have utilized this type of business model to grow rapidly, with limited capital intensity. We have previously discussed such cases in our recent Domino’s Pizza and Dunkin’ Brands articles.

In this article, we will:

Discuss The Joint Corp.’s business model and financials.
Assess the stock’s valuation and investor returns.
Conclude why The Joint Corp. could provide a profitable investment opportunity, though risks remain.

Should you go contrarian, and buy Occidental Petroleum (NYSE:OXY)? Not so fast! Sure, OXY stock has fallen back to lows set during March’s novel coronavirus crash. But, don’t take this to mean shares today are a bottom-fisher’s buy.

How so? Namely, it’s not just low energy prices holding this company down.

Burdened with high debt from its badly-timed acquistion of Anadarko Petroleum, this exploration and production (E&P) company has more hurdles to climb relative to its peers.

Also, with so much of its cash flow having to go towards interest and preferred stock dividend (more below) payments, there’s little left to grow the business. With the company just keeping its head above water, oil prices

For years, investing in defense and aerospace paid off but that changed in the last year. Certification delays for the 737 MAX, made by Boeing (NYSE:BA), is clouding the airplane industry. It is also casting a shadow in well-run companies like Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT). The detail-oriented investor will look at the whole picture and realize that LMT stock, which spent much of the last few months in the $400 range, is on the verge of a break-out.

There’s only one thing standing between

Tesla

and world domination—the global supply of lithium. And that’s good news for lithium producers.

When Tesla (ticker: TSLA) held its battery day on Sept. 22, CEO Elon Musk laid out plans to build massive amounts of Tesla-owned battery capacity—enough to make about 30 million electric vehicles by the end of the decade, up from roughly 500,000 in 2020.

Such an enormous increase depends upon mass acceptance of electric vehicles over traditional combustion-engine ones and the creation of the infrastructure necessary to fuel that many EVs. But it will also require a massive amount of lithium to make the batteries those cars will run on—a massive challenge in its own right.

Right now, the world mines roughly 400,000 tons of lithium a year, enough to power 2 million to 3 million electric vehicles, though only a third of that goes

(This story is for CNBC Pro subscribers only.)

For investors growing worried about rising inflation, Goldman Sachs found a list of stocks that will perform the best with high cost pressure.

Many on Wall Street believe that the current macro environment — a ballooning federal budget deficit, easy monetary policy, and potentially more fiscal stimulus — is setting the stage for inflation to make a grand comeback. This could create a potential headwind to the stock market as rising prices and wages tend to erode profits.

Higher interest rates could drive investors into safer bonds and away from risky equities.

Talk of a pickup in inflation intensified in the
