He just sold it. A high beta name with no profits, and down 82% in 2022. An innovative communications platform, but their latest guidance was negative: slower growth in 2023. Will look at it next summer.
Cloud communications platform. Caters to developers. Difficult time as interest rates went up. Usage-based payment. Sees it growing north of 30% over next 5 years. First, need to see Fed pause hikes. 12-month target of $73.50. Keep your eye on it.
He last bought this in 2019. It's a long-term holding. He likes it that the CEO bought $10 million in shares. This has broken above its 200-day moving average. They are cost-cutting and managing efficiencies. This has more upside than downside for a long-term investor.
Cloud communications. Great idea, difficult to monetize. Have to wait a couple more quarters to see how they'll monetize the AI side. He got in, and got out as the stock was climbing the "mountain" as seen on the chart.
