GameStop Corp (NYSE: GME)

Following a social media post indicating that GameStop is considering a cryptocurrency buying strategy, the company’s stock surged by 10%. The stock has dropped 8% so far this year and is 76% below its peak during the 2021 meme-stock frenzy.

CEO Ryan Cohen shared a picture of himself with Michael Saylor, co-founder and chairman of MicroStrategy, the biggest corporate bitcoin holder, on the social media platform X last weekend. This is not the first time GameStop has experimented with cryptocurrency. The business started a cryptocurrency wallet service in 2022 but shut it down a year later.

The company would follow a larger trend of businesses owning digital assets if it did decide to include cryptocurrency on its balance sheet. According to the bitcoin tracking website Bitcoin treasuries, over 70 public companies currently hold bitcoin, with some of the largest holders being companies like Riot Platforms, Coinbase and Block.

Roku Inc. (NASDAQ: ROKU)

Following the streaming service’s better-than-expected fourth-quarter results, Roku’s stock surged 13% in Friday’s pre-market trading.

Roku reported Q4 the first quarter with more than $1 billion in Platform revenue, fueled by more consumers switching to streaming. The Roku Channel’s streaming hours increased 82% year over year and reached almost 145 million households in the US.

Here are some key results for 2024:

Total net revenue increased 18% year over year to $4.1 billion.
Platform revenue was reported at $3.5 billion, up 18% year over year. Platform revenue in Q4 was above projections mainly because of advertising, especially from the political vertical. In Q4, political ad spends represented approximately 6% of Platform revenue.
There were 89.8 million streaming households, a net gain of 9.8 million from 2023.
Gross profit was $1.8 billion, up 19% year over year.

Roku’s subscriber base, ad revenue, and general growth have all increased as a result of the rise in political ad spending and the introduction of streaming services like Peacock, Disney+, and HBO Max.

In the future, sell-side analysts predict that revenue will increase by 12.2% over the next 12 months, which would be a modest slowdown from the previous three years. Nevertheless, this forecast is higher than typical for the industry and indicates that the Roku will gain some speed with its newest products and services.

Across his 35-year career, investor Brad Thomas has appeared on Bloomberg and Barron’s… interviewed more than 100 CEOs and high-net-worth investors… and acquired a deep contact list of multimillionaires and billionaires, including Kyle Bass and President-elect Donald Trump. Now, he’s warning that today’s economic environment is set for a major rotation out of popular stocks like the “Magnificent Seven” – and those unprepared could be blindsided by the fallout.
