Equity markets closed marginally lower on Friday after the S&P 500 set a fresh intra-day all-time high, and thin trading volumes are likely to extend until next Monday. Wednesday will see the release of the December ADP employment report and the minutes from December's FOMC meeting, during which markets will assess the likelihood of a January interest rate cut, which has slim chances for now. NVIDIA's quiet $20 billion licensing deal with specialized chipmaker Groq, which focuses on AI inference, may reignite concerns about circular financing and quieting competitors. The debate over an AI bubble should continue for years to come, but revenue shortfalls are a bigger issue than current valuations Holdings Fundamental Analysis

Generac Holdings is a Fortune 1000 American manufacturer of residential, light commercial, and industrial power systems with outputs ranging from 800 watts to 9 megawatts.

So, why am I bearish on GNRC after its 30%+ correction?

Its sub-standard annual revenue growth confirms that its role in data center backup generators is overly optimistic. Its day-to-day operating expenses have surged, while profit margins continue to shrink, further eroding its capital returns. I reiterate my bearish stance on its latest product line, its market positions, and its decreased 2025 outlook.
