10 Industrials Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

Twilio Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/twlo#NYSE">TWLO</a>) provides developers and businesses tools and products to enhance their communications with customers. Its cloud communication-as-a-service (CPaaS) platform offers basic services like voice, email, and SMS messaging to more advanced interactive services like video, artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots, voice application programming interfaces (APIs), and identity authentication. Gartner ranked it as a CPaaS leader in its Magic Quadrant for the second year in 2024. Twilio has leveraged AI into its services to provide more flexibility and enhance experiences.
The computer and technology sector leader has well-known clients, including the top streaming service Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nflx#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>), Airbnb Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/abnb#NASDAQ">ABNB</a>), and rideshare duopolies Uber Technologies Inc.&nbsp;and Lyft Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lyft#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>). It competes with 8X8 Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/eght#NASDAQ">EGHT</a>).
<h2>The Value Proposition of CPaaS </h2>
On the surface, CPaaS may not seem like a big deal, especially as an end user.&nbsp;However, the benefit of CPaaS, like most&nbsp;as-a-service platforms (aaS), is not having to bear the expense of in-house building, managing, maintaining, and upgrading the complex hardware and software infrastructure. This and the ability to scale the services to millions of customers are the major value propositions. Businesses use CPaaS to embed communication channels like voice calls, video, email, and text messaging into their mobile apps. Consumers often take these services for granted because they are commonplace these days.
For example, If you&#39;ve ever ordered an Uber or Lyft ride through their mobile apps, Twilio&#39;s platform enables the rideshare app to:
<ul>
<li>Send an SMS notification when a driver has been found.</li>
<li>Provide real-time location updates notifying you the driver is on the way and has arrived.</li>
<li>Enables driver and passenger communication features like calling and texting if you&#39;re wondering where the driver is.</li>
<li>Enables text, email, and voice calling options to contact customer service if there&#39;s a problem.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Rich Communication Services (RCS) Is a Game Changer</h2>
Twilio offers RCS, enabling businesses to take their text messaging to the next level without users downloading more apps. RCS enables companies to send rich media like videos, images, logos, and pictures in text messages. It can include buttons, links, or other triggers enabling the end user to take an action like making a payment, voting, or booking an appointment. It provides a more interactive and branded communication experience with customers, ultimately leading to an improved customer experience and higher conversion rates.
<h2>Twilio Leverages AI Services Like Auto Pilot and Flex Insights </h2>
Twilio offers its tools and services as APIs that companies and developers can customize to refine their brand and use cases. AI products like Autopilot let developers create, train, and customize interactive voice response (IVR) systems and intelligent AI chatbots that can engage customers, understand natural language, automate tasks, and authenticate and transfer customers to the right agents. Flex Insights monitors and analyzes conversations between customers and agents to provide data analytics, sentiment analysis, and transcription services to optimize workflows for and with agents.
<h2>Twilio&#39;s Recovery Is Taking Shape </h2>
Twilio&#39;s second-quarter of 2024 results indicate that business is recovering. The company reported a 17 cents EPS beat, coming in at 87 cents. Revenues grew 4.4% YoY to $1.08 billion, which also beat consensus estimates of $1.06 billion. They grew their active customer accounts to over 316,000 in the quarter compared to 304,000 in the year-ago period. The company has $800 million left in its $2 billion share buyback program, which it will complete by year&#39;s end.
The company issued Q3 2024 EPS of 81 to 86 cents versus 74 cents consensus estimates. Twilio expected revenues of $1.085 billion to $1.095 billion versus $1.09 billion consensus estimates. For fiscal 2024, Twilio is raising its non-GAAP income from operations, which ranges from $650 million to $670 million, up from the previous forecast of $585 million to $635 million. Organic revenue growth was narrowed to 6% to 7% compared to 5% to 10% previously forecast.
<h2>TWLO Stock Is in an Ascending Triangle Pattern </h2>
An ascending triangle is a bullish pattern comprised of a flat-top upper trendline resistance indicating the supply overhand. The ascending (rising) trendline is formed by higher lows, indicating rising demand. A breakout occurs when the stock surges through the upper trendline, whereas a breakdown occurs if the stock falls below the ascending trendline.
<img alt="Twilio TWLO stock chart" class="aligncenter" src="https://www.marketbeat.com/logos/articles/med_20240922163137_chartq-twlo.jpg" style="height:748px; width:915px" />
TWLO has an upper trendline resistance at $63.91. The stock has been recovering since the $52.51 swing low. The anchored VWAP support is steadily rising at $58.86. As TWLO rises to test the flat-top resistance, it also has the potential to reach the lower gap-fill level at $64.89. The upper gap fill would occur if TWLO rises to $68.85. The daily relative strength index (RSI) is rising to the 61-band. Fibonacci (Fib) pullback support levels are at $61.47, $59.56, $56.86, and $53.81.
Twilio&#39;s average consensus price target is $70.52, and its highest analyst price target is $110.00. &nbsp;
Bullish investors can buy on pullbacks using cash-secured puts at the fib pullback support levels to buy the dip and write covered calls at fib extensions to execute a wheel strategy for income.
By implementing a bullish call debit spread, bullish options investors can limit maximum downside and profit from modest upside gains for less capital than owning the stock.

<h2>The Core of Analyst Ratings: What Every Investor Should Know</h2>
Analysts work in banking and financial systems and typically specialize in reporting for stocks or defined sectors. Analysts may attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

Forecasting The Future: 21 Analyst Projections For Lyft

The EV landscape is heating up, and three key players — Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Nio Inc &#8211; ADR (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>) and XPeng Inc &#8211; ADR (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPEV#NYSE">XPEV</a>) — are battling for dominance. But who's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/electric-vehicles">winning the race</a>?
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Tesla: The Global Titan</h1>
Tesla has been in the driver&#8217;s seat for years, and despite its stock being down 7.11% in the past year, it&#8217;s making bullish moves. Elon Musk's ambitious robotaxi plans could reshape urban transport, posing a threat to Uber Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) and Lyft Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>).
Add to that a more affordable Tesla vehicle on the horizon, and the company is positioning itself to fend off Chinese competitors like BYD Co Ltd (OTCPK:BYDDF).

Technically, Tesla's in a sweet spot. The stock's trading at $243.92, comfortably above key moving averages such as the 20-day SMA of $220.34.

With analysts giving a 12-month price target range of $22.86 to $310, Tesla's future looks volatile but full of upside potential.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Nio: The Underdog With Momentum</h1>
Nio has taken a beating, with its stock down a staggering 38.78% over the past year. 
But don't count them out. NIO's strategic partnerships — such as securing batteries from BYD — and the launch of its cheaper ONVO L60 are targeting Tesla's price-sensitive consumers. The L60, priced below Tesla's Model Y in China, could be a game changer.

On the technical front, Nio's stock is currently trading at $5.40, above its 50-day SMA of $4.42, signaling buying pressure.

Source: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/report/NIO">Benzinga Report &#8211; NIO</a>
With an estimated 37.53% upside potential, Nio might be down, but it's far from out.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">XPeng: The Dark Horse</h1>
XPeng's stock has also struggled, down 42.57% year over year, but its progress is undeniable.
From rolling out its 500,000th vehicle to eyeing European markets with participation in the Paris Motor Show, XPeng is playing the long game.

Technically, the stock is trading at $9.39, above its 20-day SMA of $8.34, flashing bullish signals. 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="670" height="519" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20071944/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-4.27.21-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-558091" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20071944/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-4.27.21-PM.png 670w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20071944/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-4.27.21-PM-300x232.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px" /></figure>
Source: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/report/TSLA">Benzinga Report &#8211; XPEV</a>
Analysts predict up to a 10.47% price increase, making it a slower burn as compared to its rivals.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">The Verdict</h1>
Tesla leads with innovation and market dominance, but Nio and XPeng are closing the gap, especially in the price-sensitive Chinese market.
Keep an eye on the underdogs!

The Nasdaq 100 closed lower by around 0.5% during Monday's session. Investors, meanwhile, focused on some notable insider trades.
When insiders sell shares, it could be a preplanned sale, or could indicate their concern in the company's prospects or that they view the stock as being overpriced. Insider sales should not be taken as the only indicator for making an investment or trading decision. At best, it can lend conviction to a selling decision.
Below is a look at a few recent notable insider sales. For more, check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/sec/insider-trades/">Benzinga&#8217;s insider transactions</a> platform.

테슬라(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)는 로보택시를 통해 <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">자율주행</a> 차량호출 서비스로 전환하기 위해 노력하고 있으며, 이러한 전환으로 우버 테크놀로지스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>)와 직접적인 경쟁 위치에 섰다. 두 회사가 근시일 내에 마주칠 가능성이 높은 만큼, 여기서는 2022년 초부터 두 회사의 주가 움직임을 알아보도록 하겠다.
테슬라의 소란스러운 여정: 팬데믹 기간 동안 놀라운 회복력을 보였던 테슬라의 운명은 2022년 초에 더욱 악화되었다. 팬데믹 기간 동안 코로나19 경기부양 조치 속에서 추악한 고개를 들기 시작한 인플레이션은 2022년 여름에 정점에 달했다. 인플레이션 상승으로 인해 미국 연방준비제도(연준)는 금리 인상을 발표했다.
2022년 3월 이후 발표된 연속적이고 공격적인 금리 인상은 소비자 심리와 자동차 등 임의 품목에 대한 지출에 부정적인 영향을 미쳤다.
악화된 경제적 환경 속에서 테슬라의 전기차에 대한 수요는 역행하기 시작했다. 설상가상으로, 침체된 수요를 활성화하려는 일론 머스크가 이끄는 이 회사의 전략은 역효과를 냈다.
이 가격 인하는 테슬라의 자동차 사업의 핵심 마진에 상당한 타격을 주었다. 이후로 테슬라의 강세를 믿는 투자자들은 특히 &#8216;헤일로 효과(halo effect, 후광 효과)&#8217;를 통해 사이버트럭 출시로 인한 판매량 증가를 기대했다. 오랜 지연 끝에 마침내 2023년 후반에 이 EV 픽업트럭이 고객에게 출시되었다. 그러나 기대했던 성과는 나타나지 않았다.
이러한 어려운 시기는 2023년의 많은 부분에 이어 계속되었고, 이 회사는 연속된 3분기 동안 이익과 매출 예상치를 모두 달성하지 못하는 결과를 낳았다.
이러한 펀더멘털의 문제는 이 회사의 주식을 짓누르고 있었고, 이로 인해 2022년 이후 주식은 51% 이상 하락했다.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-332065" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/10051825/newplot-3.jpeg" sizes="(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/10051825/newplot-3.jpeg 650w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/10051825/newplot-3-300x208.jpeg 300w" alt="" width="650" height="450" /></figure>

로보택시 전환: 이러한 배경 속에서 테슬라는 자체 완전 자율주행 기술에 대한 관심을 높였다. 이 자율주행(FSD)은 베타 테스트에서 FSD(감독)로 마무리되었으며, 경영진은 회사의 로보택시 서비스에 유용한 기술을 완성하는 데 중점을 두고 있음을 분명히 전달했다.
머스크는 8월 8일에 회사가 로보택시 이벤트를 개최할 것으로 확인했다.
테슬라의 강세를 신뢰하는 캐시 우드는 로보택시가 향후 몇 년 동안 회사 가치의 대부분을 차지할 것으로 예상한다. 아크 인베스트(Ark Invest)는 테슬라의 주가가 2027년까지 2,000달러에 도달할 것으로 예상하고 있으며, 로보택시는 매출의 44%, EBITDA의 64%, 기업 가치의 67%를 차지할 것으로 예상하고 있다.
긍적적인 소식으로는 테슬라의 주요 시장 중 하나인 중국에서 이 회사의 자율주행(FSD)을 출시할 수 있었다고 전해졌다.
코로나로부터 벗어나는 우버의 부활: 수요일, 우버는 1분기에 예상보다 나은 매출을 보고했지만 총 예약은 기대에 미치지 못했다. 2분기 가이던스도 엇갈렸다. 이러한 실적 발표 후 하락세에 따라 웨드부시(Wedbush)의 분석가인 스콧 데빗(Scott Devitt)는 &#8220;우리는 기본 비즈니스가 여전히 건전하다고 생각하며 단기 주가 하락세를 기회적으로 매수할 것&#8221;이라고 말했다.
이 분석가는 다음과 같은 점을 포함해서 우버가 &#8220;장기 성장의 다양한 동인을 갖춘 지배적인 글로벌 이동성 및 배달 플랫폼&#8221;으로 남아 있다고 말했다:
<ul class="block core-block">
<li>비 우버X 모빌리티 상품들</li>
<li>지속적인 점유율 상승 및 국제 시장 전반의 카테고리 리더십 향상</li>
<li>빈도 및 채택 증가</li>
<li>지속적인 우버 원(Uber One) 멤버십 증가</li>
<li>새로운 업종 및 광고 매출의 성장</li>
</ul>
코로나19 팬데믹 속에서 침체기를 겪은 후 우버는 &#8216;재개 주식(reopening stock)&#8217;이라는 혜택을 누렸다. 또한 이 팬데믹은 적자를 내고 있는 스쿠터 및 자전거 사업 매각, 자율 부문 축소, 일부 수익성 없는 시장 철수, 인력 감축 등의 이니셔티브를 통해 사업 규모를 적정하게 조정할 수 있는 기회를 제공했다. 이 회사는 또한 온라인 식료품 및 음식 배달 사업에도 크게 진출했다.
이 팬데믹이 완화됨에 따라 이 회사는 할인을 제공하여 고객을 다시 유치하는 데 투자했다.
이 결과는 천천히 그리고 꾸준히 나타나기 시작했다. 우버는 4분기에 흑자를 기록했고 그 주식은 S&amp;P 500 지수에 편입되었다.
우버를 위협하는 테슬라? 테슬라가 로보택시를 통해 차량호출 사업에 뛰어들고 있을 가능성이 일부 사람들에게는 위협으로 여겨진다. 게리 블랙(Gary Black)은 테슬라의 분기별 실적 이후 4월 말 게시물에서 우버와 리프트(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>)의 주가에 미치는 영향이 최소화된 것은 투자자들이 테슬라의 감독되지 않은 차량 호출을 이들 회사에 심각한 위협으로 인식하지 못할 수 있음을 의미한다고 말했다.
그러나 테슬라가 8월 8일에 로보택시를 공개하면 이러한 점은 바뀔 가능성이 있을 것이다.
테슬라 vs 우버: 테슬라와 우버의 대결은 두 회사가 운영하는 다양한 사업 라인을 고려한다면 사과와 사과를 비교하는 것으로 보기 어려울 수 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 두 회사는 미쳐보지 못한 가까운 미래에 서로의 경로를 가로막게 될 것이다. 두 회사의 주식에서 수익률의 움직임을 아래에서 확인해보자.

세부 사항 (The Details): 리프트는 주당 15센트의 분기 이익을 보고했는데, 이는 분석가의 합의 추정치인 3센트를 400% 상회하고 전년 대비 114.29% 증가한 수치이다.
분기별 매출은 12억 8천만 달러로 애널리스트들의 예상치인 11억 6천만 달러를 10.02% 상회했으며, 이는 전년 동기 대비 10억 달러 매출보다 27.59% 증가한 수치이다.
올해 1분기 총 예약금은 37억 달러로 전년 대비 21% 증가했다.
"리프트는 2024년에 강력한 출발을 시작했다. 우리는 잘 실행하고 있으며 시장에 절실히 필요한 혁신을 가져오고 있다. 이것이 운전자와 승객이 리프트를 더 자주 선택하는 이유이다"라고 최고경영자(CEO)인 데이비드 리셔(David Risher)가 말했다. &#8220;1년 동안 리프트의 운전석에 앉아 우리의 고객에 대한 집착이 수익성 있는 성장을 주도하는 모든 방식을 보게 되어 매우 기쁘다.&#8221;

리프트: 1분기 매출 및 EPS가 예상을 상회 및 총 예약 증가로 주가 상승 (정정)

최근 상황이 바뀌면서 우버 테크놀로지스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>)와 리프트(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>)는 미니애폴리스 서비스 중지를 연기하기로 결정하여 서비스를 이용하는 사용자에게 일시적인 안도감을 제공했다.
사건의 전말 (What Happened): 로이터는 2개의 대표적인 차량 공유 회사인 우버와 리프트가 미니애폴리스에서 7월 1일까지 영업을 연장했다고 금요일 보도했다. 이는 새로운 운전자 급여 조례 시행을 연기하기로 한 미니애폴리스 시의회 결정에 따른 것이다.
차량 공유 운전자의 시간당 최저 임금을 15.57달러로 규정하는 이 조례는 당초 5월 1일부터 시행될 예정이었으나 시의회 만장일치 투표로 7월 1일로 연기됐다.
이는 발렌타인 데이에 공정한 임금과 근무 조건을 옹호하는 차량 공유 및 배달 운전기사들의 항의에 이어 시의회가 3월에 내린 결정에 대한 대응이었다.
왜 중요한가 (Why It Matters): 미니애폴리스에 머물기로 한 결정은 시의회의 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/03/37831220/uber-lyft-leave-minneapolis-after-new-minimum-wage-law-leaves-10-000-out-of-work-we-are-disappointed">3월</a> 판결에 대해 두 회사 모두 상당한 반발을 받은 후에 나온 것이다. 지난 3월 회사의 성명에 따르면 제이콥 프레이 시장의 거부권을 무시한 이번 판결은 약 1만 명의 근로자에게 영향을 미쳤을 것이라고 한다.
우버와 리프트는 의회가 임금 의무화의 부정적인 영향을 시사하는 데이터를 무시했다는 점을 강조하면서 실망감을 표명했다. 회사들은 새로운 법으로 인해 영업이 중단되고 많은 운전자들이 일자리를 잃게 될 것이라고 경고했다.
