HOLD
Snowflake

Price target of $198.50. A profitable SaaS. It was a darling, now an absolute bargain down around $120. New offerings, a leader. Powers the cloud business for lots of companies. Stick with it.

BUY
Snowflake
Fine CEO and business model. Good for the long-term.

DON'T BUY
Snowflake
It reported a top and bottom line beat today, with sales up 67% year over year and strong cash flow, but the revenue forecast for Q4 came in weaker than expected and implied a big slowdown from Q3. Margin guidance was weak too, which is not good in this market which wants profitability in a company.

COMMENT
Snowflake
They report Wednesday. They offer a great value proposition by renting out cloud computing and analytics, but it could take a long time for potential customers to catch on.
Technology
BUY
Snowflake
Snowflake vs. Datadog Likes them both. If shares of Datadog came down, we could see a takeover bid. Snowflake will do well over 5 years under this CEO. You could buy a little Snowflake and wait.
Technology
PARTIAL BUY
Snowflake
It's making money though shares have been destroyed. Software companies are in a tough spot now. You want to be in places like this, at least picking them over.

BUY on WEAKNESS
Snowflake
They reported excellent numbers last Wednesday. Shares soared 23% the next day and even rallied on Friday, when the market plunged. Almost nobody saw that super quarter; Wall Street was bearish as two analysts downgraded it to sells and cut price targets. They got it wrong, because SNOW has an unusual business model. Most cloud companies have a software-as-service model, selling subscriptions each month to use the software. In contrast, Snowflake uses a consumption-based model (not subs) charging customers how much storage they use, like a utility. That's good for customers (and Snowflake), but shareholders find it hard to predict company revenues. For SNOW's first six quarters, they had triple-digit revenue growth each time as the fastest-growing software company. Wall Street was worried about declining use if we're heading into a recession. SNOW's quarter: beat revenues by a mile, up 83% YOY, operating income was positive and not negative as expected and offered strong guidance this quarter and raised their full-year. As for a recession: SNOW customers can use more or less as they wish and pay for just that--Wall Street missed this point. Now, shares are a pricey 22x 2023 sales.

BUY
Snowflake
This class of stocks has been beaten down, but Snowflake has been beaten unfairly. True, it's been richly valued since it went public, but after the bell today, it released top and bottom line beats and its raised full-year forecast.
Technology
PARTIAL BUY
Snowflake
Similar to PLTR. It's companies like SNOW that will lead this market higher. Oversold, but he'd buy in stages around $160, 145, and 130. (Analysts’ price target is $290.00)
Technology
COMMENT
Snowflake
Reported a top and bottom line beat, but offered soft guidance--turbulence due to the wider economy. Shares tumbled 15% the next day, but recovered over 10% mostly because investors realized the business is strong. SNOW has strong secular growth. Shares have gradually recovered from that report/guidance.
Technology
BUY
Snowflake
He won't buy high-PE tech stocks even though they are bottoming, but he will trade them. He bought Snowflake calls at a March 200 strike with the stock trading at $181. The cost was 50 cents to $1, then $5 today! The stock has jumped and is now around $189. He was not disciplined--his mistake. He won't invest in these high-PE tech stocks, because they can plunge fast. He has not sold or trimmed these calls, and that is his mistake. If options trader believed tech stocks are bottoming now, they would be looking past April 1. Nobody in options is looking long term, only short.
Technology
DON'T BUY
Snowflake
Down 22% after hours after reporting with weak guidance It's an $80 billion company and they just guided for $23 billion. Investors got way out of hand what they were willing to pay for these cloud computing companies.
Technology
DON'T BUY
Snowflake
Last Thanksgiving, this was a $400 stock and right now it's been cut in half. It trades around 35x revenue--it's still expensive. It bottomed around $185 a year ago. Even with all the metrics and shares cut in half, this remains an expensive name.
Technology
DON'T BUY
Snowflake
You can't just buy "tech" now. You must work to find companies with logical valuations that offer earnings growth. Some tech stocks have that, some don't. The strategy playback that worked the last 5 years won't work in the coming 5 years.
