A Covid stock, part of the buy-now, pay-later group that had its day. In late 2021, it peaked around $400, plunged to the low teens two years later, then rebounded somewhat, but is still way past its highs. These stocks got killed as soon as the Fed announced it would raise interest rates, leaving behind the days of very low rates.

The quarter and outlook were very solid, and this is the second very strong Q in a row, and the stock has regained lots of momentum. EPS could be 70% next year, after a shift from a loss to a profit this year. The 23% short position will likely continue to cover. We think investors can hold this now.

UPST had its big decline because it had to take loans onto its balance sheet. The recent deal goes a long way in resolving this concern. It does use data to price loans, but we are not sure if it is the 'AI play' that some think. The rally we think is likely largely short covering. However, when a stock goes from 'almost bankrupt' to growing again it can still have a big move, and longer than one might think. Its guidance was solid, so fundamental buyers may come back here and continue to support it.
