• Rivian Automotive’s stock fell 42% in 2024 due to supply issues, but 2025 looks promising with potential production growth and a Volkswagen AG joint venture.
• The $6.6 billion DOE loan and new plant plans could boost Rivian’s production capacity by 400K vehicles annually by 2028.
• Rivian’s valuation is compelling, with liquid assets accounting for 50% of its market value, offering a high margin of safety.
• Despite past disappointments, resolving supplier issues and expanding the EV market could drive a strong rebound for Rivian in 2025.

The stock price of Rivian Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ:RIVN) has decreased by 42% in 2024 as a challenging year for the EV company and the electric-vehicle industry as a whole is drawing to an end.

• Altria’s success depends on its HTS market entry via the Horizon JV with Japan Tobacco, leveraging Marlboro’s brand strength to capture market share in the space underdeveloped in the US.
• Other smoke-free initiatives (on!, NJOY) also hold upside potential, but their financial impact hasn’t been material yet. I believe HTS portfolio is a missing piece in the puzzle.
• Altria’s current valuation is attractive, and as smoke-free initiatives, especially HTS, gain traction, multiples could be higher.
• Altria is a ‘buy’ for patient investors who believe in the market launch of HTS products, but it faces risks from market conditions and competition from established brands like IQOS.

Altria Group (NYSE:MO) is one of my top-tier consumer staple stocks. Its highly profitable smoking business generated margins high enough to provide shareholders with substantial distributions over decades. However, in recent years, the industry has struggled due to the progressing movement

• I give United Airlines Holdings, Inc. a hold rating.
• The company suffers from poor annual free cash flow due to large capital expenditures and is excessively leveraged, even for the passenger airline industry.
• United borrows approximately $370 for every $100 raised from investors, with a less than stellar 6.85% ROIC to show for it.
• However, the company is one of the most undervalued among airline stocks, boasting among the highest earnings yield based on forward-looking metrics, and has high-quality earnings.

• Alibaba sold its 73.66% stake in Sun Art to DCP Capital for US$1.6bn, reflecting a shift away from its New Retail strategy.
• The sale is positive as Sun Art faces a competitive offline retail market and Alibaba is focusing on its Freshippo brand.
• Alibaba’s disposal strategy includes potential sales of non-core assets like Youku and Alibaba Pictures to concentrate on e-commerce and global expansion.
• Despite the asset sale, the broader consumption downgrade in China favors retail cost leaders, maintaining a cautious view on Alibaba’s stock.

As expected (see: Alibaba: The End Of New Retail As We Know It?), Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) sold its 73.66% stake in Sun Art department store to DCP Capital for gross proceeds of HK12.3bn, or US$1.6bn. BABA made

• Modine Manufacturing stock signals a new buying opportunity within its strong upward trend.
• In 2024, it doubled its value on the New York Stock Exchange, with 38 new all-time highs.
• Over the last 26 trading sessions, MOD stock has declined by 19% overall, reaching critical support levels where buying interest is expected.
• The excellent operating EBITDA and FCF growth rate offsets its seemingly high valuation.
• The recent acquisition of Scott Springfield enhances medium-term expectations for the company’s outlook.

It targets investors who are willing to strengthen their portfolio with high momentum, taking advantage of pullback opportunities.

• Tesla’s 2024 performance was disappointing, with sales growth under 1% and a 9% decline in operating income, yet the stock surged 62% due to multiple expansion.
• Musk’s 20-30% growth target for 2025 is highly questionable given negative delivery growth in 2024 and stiff competition from Chinese EV makers like BYD.
• Tesla’s self-driving technology lags behind competitors like Waymo, facing significant technological and regulatory hurdles that undermine near-term growth expectations.
• With over 80% of revenue from automotive sales and margins resembling legacy automakers, Tesla’s valuation is detached from reality; fair value is $104 per share.

About a year ago, I wrote an article detailing why I believe Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) (NEOE:TSLA:CA) stock will trade down to double-digit stock valuation. I argued:

For a long time, Tesla investors expected the electric vehicle (“EV”) company to grow steadily, and aggressively, while

• Nvidia’s stock, despite strong 2024 performance, shows bearish technicals and modest undervaluation, making it a hold rather than a buy.
• Technical analysis reveals a near-term downtrend, weak EMAs, and bearish indicators, suggesting further potential declines.
• Financials remain resilient with strong revenue and EPS growth, but valuation multiples indicate modest undervaluation.
• Overall, Nvidia’s stock appears to be ‘not worthy’ for investors seeking major gains, balancing bearish technicals with resilient fundamentals.

Thesis

Despite having a blockbuster 2024 with its stock advancing nearly 180%, Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) could be becoming not worthy as its latest 6 month returns only total around 8%. In the analysis below, I determine that the technicals
