🥶 NOT: Dollar Tree (NASDAQ: DLTR) reported earnings before the open on Wednesday, beating Wall Street’s projections for both its revenue and EPS. However, the report included forward guidance that suggests the company’s EPS may drop as much as 50% for the second quarter, sparking an 8.4% drop in its share price. Sentiment surrounding DLTR has been quite negative lately, and the company’s Growth potential (C rating) and Value (C rating) leave a lot to be desired. DLTR has performed well so far this year, gaining 17.2% YTD, but it may underperform the market in the near term. We give DLTR a C Zen Rating and a Hold recommendation.
🔥 HOT: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (NYSE: TSM) gained 2.4% on Wednesday after the company’s CEO, C.C. Wei, assured investors that the company will be less affected by tariffs than previously thought. The company is also well underway in building its second plant in Japan, a move that will help it produce more of its 6-nanometer chips to meet increasing demand. We give TSM a C rating in Safety due to the uncertainty surrounding its future, given threats from tariffs and Chinese interference. On the other hand, the company gets an A rating in Financials and remains one of the most important chip stocks on the market. We give TSM a B Zen Rating and a Buy recommendation.
🥶 NOT: CrowdStrike Holdings (NASDAQ: CRWD) lost 5.8% after its quarterly earnings report included weak guidance for the upcoming quarter. The company said that it expects its subscription revenue to drop by $10 million for each of the next three quarters as it rolls out a new customer commitment program. The company also missed its revenue projections by $1.2 million. Our analysis gives CRWD D ratings in Value and Safety and C ratings in Sentiment and Financials. The company is up on the year, but its weak guidance for the second quarter makes acquiring more shares a risky proposition. We give CRWD a C Zen Rating and a Hold recommendation.
