Market Sentiment Analysis

Equity markets continue their dangerous advance, fueling the AI bubble, and banking on more aggressive interest rate cuts by the Fed. When all news is good news, investors should consider current conditions and re-evaluate their portfolios. Futures are pointing higher, and the last few months resemble the summer of 2007, leading up to the global financial crisis of 2008. Investors are funding all AI projects, despite a 95% failure rate and the expected tremendous revenue shortfall compared to massive investments Fundamental Analysis

DoorDash is the largest food delivery company in the US, with a market share of 56% and a 60% market share in convenience store deliveries. It caters to over 450,000 merchants, over 20,000,000 users, and employs over 1,000,000 couriers, why am I bearish on DASH, despite its six-week rally?

Valuations are excessive, operating margins are weak, and DoorDash flirts with becoming a meme stock. The health of the consumer, despite its ongoing resilience, is another area of concern, while wage pressures harm the already fragile balance sheet. The development of its first delivery robot, conducted in-house by DoorDash Labs, is another capital-intensive project with long-term benefits, but short-term capital requirements.
