Legendary investor Warren Buffett advises to be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful. One way we can try to measure the level of fear in a given stock is through a technical analysis indicator called the Relative Strength Index, or RSI, which measures momentum on a scale of zero to 100. A stock is considered to be oversold if the RSI reading falls below 30. In trading on Monday, shares of Impinj Inc (Symbol: PI) entered into oversold territory, hitting an RSI reading of 29.1, after changing hands as low as $139.03 per share. By comparison, the current RSI reading of the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is 37.3. A bullish investor could look at PI's 29.1 RSI reading today as a sign that the recent heavy selling is in the process of exhausting itself, and begin to look for entry point opportunities on the buy side. The chart below shows the one year performance of PI shares: Looking at the chart above, PI's low point in its 52 week range is $87.15 per share, with $239.88 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $141.00.

Make better investment decisions with Simply Wall St's easy, visual tools that give you a competitive edge. Qualcomm, NasdaqGS:QCOM, is reporting weaker near term revenue expectations as the global memory chip shortage continues to weigh on the smartphone sector. At the same time, the company is pushing further into automotive technology, including software defined vehicles, ADAS and autonomous driving platforms. Qualcomm is also expanding in robotics, highlighted by products such as DragonWing IQ 10 and new partnerships targeting the emerging robotics market. For you as an investor, the key point is that Qualcomm is still closely tied to the smartphone supply chain, and the memory chip shortage is feeding through to its outlook. Management frames a portion of this smartphone demand as deferred rather than lost, which may matter for how you think about timing versus long term potential. Alongside this, NasdaqGS:QCOM is building out businesses in automotive and robotics that depend less on handset cycles. The newer efforts in software defined vehicles, ADAS and robotics could change how you view Qualcomm's mix of revenue sources over time. When you assess the stock, you may want to separate shorter term smartphone headwinds from the longer term role it is seeking in cars and robots, and watch how quickly those newer areas scale relative to the core handset business.

W. P. Carey ( WPC ) is scheduled to announce Q4 earnings results on Tuesday, February 10th, after market close. The consensus FFO estimate is $1.24 and the consensus revenue estimate is $433.28M (+6.67% Y/Y). Last quarter, the net lease REIT raised its 2025 full-year adjusted FFO guidance and delivered better-than-expected results on the back of strong investment activity. In January, W. P. Carey reported a record $2.1B in investments in 2025, with an average initial cash cap rate of about 7.6% and an estimated yield of roughly 9.2%. "With a strong pipeline of high-quality opportunities to start 2026 and the vast majority of our anticipated equity needs for the year already accounted for — including around $420M of forward equity, several-hundred million dollars of planned accretive asset sales and $250M to $300M of expected retained cash flow — we're well-positioned to continue delivering attractive AFFO growth," CEO Jason Fox had then said. "With tailwinds from lower base rates likely going into 2026, WPC looks poised to deliver solid results, should we manage to dodge a recession," said Seeking Alpha author Dividend Collection Agency after the third-quarter results. "While I think any significant upside will likely be limited near-term, WPC could see solid price appreciation over the next 24 to 36 months," said the author. The stock is trading ~9% above its 200-day simple moving average. Seeking Alpha authors grade WPC as Buy. However, the stock gets a Hold recommendation from the Wall Street analysts and the Quant Rating system. Quant assigns to the stock a C+ for Valuation, D+ for Growth, B+ for Profitability and Momentum, and C for Revisions. Recently, Citi maintained its Hold rating on WPC, with a view that the stock is likely to perform in line with the broader market rather than significantly outperforming it. Insiders are net buyers of the stock, with seven open market buys reported in the past three months against one sell transaction. More on W. P. Carey...

Sundry Photography/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Software stocks plunged last week amid what I have dubbed the “Claude Crash,” the heavy selling exacerbated by Anthropic’s latest suite of Claude AI plug-ins. The iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF ( IGV ) endured one of its worst weeks since the Great Financial Crisis. One stock thrown out with the bathwater was CrowdStrike ( CRWD ). Now in a 30% drawdown , shares of the $100 billion Systems Software industry company within the Information Technology sector were treated like any other software-as-a-service name. But the leading cybersecurity player has different value propositions and long-term growth potential. I am upgrading CRWD to a "B uy." I was neutral on CRWD back in November . That marked a near-term peak, with a 28% decline persisting through today. With earnings on tap, the growth story remains solid. Of course, CRWD sports among the loftiest valuations in the S&P 500. I’ll offer a refreshed valuation and an updated look at the chart. CRWD Caught Up in the Software Plunge Stockcharts.com Back in December, CrowdStrike reported a solid set of quarterly results. Q3 non-GAAP EPS of $0.96 topped the Wall Street consensus forecast of $0.94, while revenue of $1.23 billion, up 22% from the same period a year earlier, was a modest $10 million beat. George Kurtz’s company tallied $1.17 billion in subscription revenue, with an upbeat outlook handed to the street ahead of calendar-year 2026. ARR was +23% YoY in its fiscal Q3 . Shares initially traded lower but then finished the post-earnings session higher by 1.5%. The options market had priced in a higher 6.8% earnings-related stock price swing. Looking ahead to the March 3 release, the options market prices in a high 8.7% earnings-related stock price swing based on the at-the-money straddle expiring soonest after the report. Implied volatility on CRWD shares is very high, above 60%. Looking back on the quarter that was, CrowdStrike performed well in its Q3...

Recent orders haven't shown up yet in this chipmaker's financials, but they might be about to give the company a big lift. Artificial intelligence is inspiring companies to make massive investments of capital. Much of that money is slated to go to the businesses that produce essential components for hardware to run AI-powered applications and harness the data necessary to produce the most valuable insights. For companies that specialize in producing those components, every news item boasting of another multi-billion dollar investment in AI is a reason to celebrate. Micron Technology (MU 2.83%) has put itself in exactly that position as an essential supplier of memory chips for AI hardware, and yesterday, the first article in this series on Micron for the Voyager Portfolio looked at the company's inspiring history and rise to the pinnacle of the tech industry. Today, you'll learn more about Micron's financial results and why the best of times might still be well into the future. 2 perspectives on Micron's move higher One thing investors can learn a lot from with Micron's financial results is that when you start a comparison makes a huge difference. Both of the following narratives are completely true, but they paint very different pictures of Micron's growth: Over the past 12 months, Micron's revenue has been nearly triple what it was during the company's 2023 fiscal year. The semiconductor memory chipmaker has gone from a huge loss of $5.8 billion three years ago to net income of $11.9 billion over the past four quarters. Margins have enjoyed explosive growth. Micron sales are up just under 40% since the chipmaker's strong year in fiscal 2022. Operating and profit margins have only recently returned to their same levels from four years ago, and the 37% rise in net income, although solid, seems out of proportion with the stock's much larger gains over the same period. The way to reconcile those two views is to understand that historically, Micron's memory chip busine...

Robinhood Markets ( HOOD ) is set to announce fourth-quarter earnings on Tuesday, and investors will watch out for updates on strategic initiatives such as prediction markets, tokenization, and international expansion. Wall Street expects the financial services platform to post an EPS of $0.68, implying a decline of 32.7% year-over-year, while revenue is expected to rise 32.7% to $1.34B for the quarter. During its Q3 earnings call, Robinhood Markets’ CEO Vladimir Tenev outlined a long-term vision, aiming for half of the company’s revenue to come from outside the U.S. in 10 years. Equity research analyst and Seeking Alpha author Kenio Fontes upgraded HOOD to Buy, saying that recent price declines create a compelling margin of safety. “Despite short-term crypto-driven revenue volatility, HOOD's diversification efforts - subscriptions, net interest, and innovative products - are showing strong growth,” highlighted Fontes, adding that, “Operational leverage is evident as top-line is up more than 100% year-over-year while expenses rose just 35%, supporting sustainable long-term profitability.” Wall Street analysts are also bullish , rating HOOD a Buy. However, Seeking Alpha’s Quant rating system and Seeking Alpha analysts are cautious and rate HOOD a Hold . During the Q3 earnings call, CFO Jason Warnick indicated that full-year 2025 adjusted operating expenses plus stock-based compensation are expected to be around $2.28B, subject to change based on business performance and investment in growth areas like Prediction Markets and Robinhood Ventures. However, Seeking Alpha analyst Amrita Roy rated HOOD a Hold, saying that Robinhood faces a more than 50% drawdown from its peak, driven by declining crypto, equities, and options volumes amid tightening liquidity. Roy warned that HOOD's Q4 FY25 earnings are expected to show sequential declines in transaction and net interest revenues, reflecting risk-off sentiment and macro uncertainty. Additionally, forward revenue growth is p...

Key Points SLVP has outperformed IAU by a wide margin over the past year but comes with higher volatility and a deeper sector concentration IAU offers much greater assets under management, extremely high liquidity, and a lower expense ratio SLVP pays a 1.5% yield while IAU does not pay a dividend, and their risk profiles differ sharply due to underlying exposures. 10 stocks we like better than iShares Gold Trust › The iShares MSCI Global Silver and Metals Miners ETF (NYSEMKT:SLVP) and the iShares Gold Trust (NYSEMKT:IAU) both target precious metals themes but differ sharply in recent returns, volatility, and portfolio concentration. SLVP focuses on global silver and metals mining companies, making it a play on equities closely tied to silver prices. IAU, in contrast, provides direct exposure to gold prices through physical holdings. This comparison looks at cost, performance, risk, and the makeup of both funds to help investors assess which may fit their goals. Snapshot (cost & size) Metric SLVP IAU Issuer IShares IShares Expense ratio 0.39% 0.25% 1-yr return (as of 2026-02-06) 189.5% 73.0% Dividend yield 1.5% n/a AUM $1.2 billion $79.6 billion The 1-yr return represents total return over the trailing 12 months. IAU is more affordable with a lower expense ratio, and it commands vastly greater assets under management. SLVP offers a yield of 1.5%, but IAU does not provide a dividend, so yield is a differentiator here. Performance & risk comparison Metric SLVP IAU Max drawdown (5 y) -55.41% N/A Growth of $1,000 over 5 years $2,518 $2,733 What's inside IAU is designed to track the price of gold directly, offering investors a simple way to access gold exposure without holding the physical commodity. With $79.6 billion in assets under management and a fund age of 21 years, it is one of the largest and most liquid gold ETFs available. IAU does not hold equities or other assets—its value is determined by gold prices, and it does not pay dividends. SLVP, on the other hand, i...
