Is Carmax a Buy After Its Latest Earnings Report?

CarMax reported strong Q2 earnings with revenue up 19.5% YOY and EPS up 81.2%, but the stock fell 7% the day after the announcement, closing below its pre-earnings price. The company's new CEO implemented a competitive pricing strategy that increased unit sales and average selling prices while reducing per-unit margins. Earnings growth was driven by expanded auto financing (including Tier 2 borrowers), higher service revenues, and lower operating expenses. Despite the stock's recent volatility, analysts view CarMax as an improving turnaround play benefiting from regulatory changes and operational improvements.

Applied Materials vs. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing: Which Tech Stock Is a Better Buy in 2026?

The article compares two semiconductor industry leaders: Applied Materials, which provides chip manufacturing equipment, and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSMC), the world's largest dedicated chip foundry. While AMAT showed modest 4.4% revenue growth in 2025, TSMC demonstrated stronger momentum with 38% revenue growth and a 45% net margin. The author recommends TSMC due to its dominant 73% market share in chip foundries, faster earnings growth projections (27% vs 17%), and lower forward P/E valuation (22x vs 29x), despite geopolitical risks concentrated in Taiwan.

Uber Wants 50,000 Rivians. Here's Why Robotaxis, Not EVs, Might Be Rivian's Biggest Opportunity.

Uber plans to deploy at least 10,000 autonomous Rivian R2 vehicles with options for 40,000 more beginning in 2030, and will invest up to $1.25 billion in Rivian through 2031. This robotaxi opportunity could provide Rivian with higher-margin software revenue and a ready-made deployment network, potentially transforming the company beyond traditional EV manufacturing. However, Rivian must first prove it can achieve level 4 autonomy and profitably scale production.

Nvidia Could Have a Monster October. Here's Why.

Nvidia stock could rally significantly in October as AI hyperscalers begin releasing their 2027 capital expenditure guidance. The company projects 70% revenue growth for fiscal 2028, driven by expected hyperscaler spending to rise from $800 billion to $1.3 trillion. Currently undervalued at trailing earnings ratios, Nvidia could more than double if it achieves analyst expectations and reaches a 30x earnings valuation.

Nvidia Stock Can Top $400 in 5 Years If One Assumption Holds Up

Nvidia stock could reach $400 within five years (a 75% gain from $229) if earnings hold around fiscal 2028 levels. The analyst projects $15.50 EPS by fiscal 2028 based on 70% revenue growth, requiring only modest 5-6% annual earnings growth thereafter at a 20x P/E valuation. However, the forecast depends critically on avoiding a chip downturn, as Nvidia has experienced 55% net income drops before and faces concentration risk with hyperscalers accounting for $49B of $89B in data center revenue.

Rivian Stock Is Going to $19 According to This Wall Street Analyst. Here's Why They May Be Right.

Cantor Fitzgerald maintains a neutral rating on Rivian while setting a $19 price target, implying 20% upside. The article argues Rivian's valuation is underappreciated relative to Tesla, citing growth potential from its affordable R2 SUV launch and exposure to the robotaxi market. Rivian's gross margins of 2% lag Tesla's 19%, but could improve with economies of scale. The company is positioning itself as a supplier to robotaxi operators like Uber, which agreed to purchase up to 50,000 R2 SUVs.
