star iconJun 15, 2026, 12:00 am

This summary was created by AI, based on 4 opinions in the last 12 months.

Pinterest (PINS-Q) has recently garnered attention due to its strong customer product performance and the strategic backing of Elliott Management, which significantly influences its operations. Despite experiencing a decline of 42%, the platform showcases the second fastest growth rate in its sector, focusing on small to mid-sized businesses to offset revenue losses from larger clients. Over the past three years, new management has successfully integrated AI and enhanced service efficiency, allowing for increased ad placements without diminishing user engagement. With an expected revenue growth of 15-16% and analysts projecting a price target of $43.67, many view Pinterest as a growth opportunity trading at reasonable multiples compared to the broader market. However, experts express concerns about its competitive moat and marketing challenges, suggesting a cautious approach while monitoring its development.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Mar 17/25, Down 42%)

It is doing well from a customer product basis and has the second fastest growth rate of all the players. Elliott Management is the owner of the most active hedge fund in the world and Pinterest is its fifth largest position. It has loaned Pinterest $1 billion at 1.7% to buy back stock and can convert its loan to stock at $22.72. So, they are owners and on the board. Pinterest has catered to larger companies which have pulled back resulting in lower revenue in quarterly results. They now want to go after small to mid size businesses.

TOP PICK

It has been under new management for 3 years which has improved its service and incorporated AI.. It can place the number of ads at a more frequent rate that still allows the consumer to remain engaged. This is a growth at a reasonable rate opportunity. Trades at 21X this year's earnings. Revenue is growing 15 to 16% and earnings are growing faster. The valuation is less than the market but it is growing at double the market.
Buy 34  Hold 8  Sell 0

(Analysts’ price target is $43.67)
BUY

It reports Thursday. He expects them to report numbers that showcase their online ad revenues. Among social media, Pinterest is the most family-friendly.

WATCH

Their moat isn't wide enough, but they have an impressive half-billion active monthly users and good revenue growth. They have some problems with marketing, but trades at a reasonable multiple. There's not enough here to interest, but will watch to see how they develop.

TOP PICK

It is growing revenue at 15% year over year amd trading at 18X this year's expected earnings. The catalyst has been new management in mid 2022 making good improvements to the top line and using AI to increase the relevancy of its content. Increased usage and increased advertising which is more relevant to its users means higher revenue.             Buy 33  Hold 8  Sell 0

(Analysts’ price target is $46.59)
BUY

You must buy this for the future ad dollars. Same with Reddit.

BUY

It reports Thursday. He likes it because online ads are incredibly strong.

WEAK BUY

They have new management which knows how to monetize. We need more advertising names beside Meta and Alphabet.

DON'T BUY
This has been grinding at current levels since February and hasn't challenged their 100-day moving average in 1.5 years. Yes, he gets that they're at a strategic crossroads between e-commerce and social media--and it's an interesting position--but it hasn't paid off.
COMMENT
Activist Elliott Mgt. buying a huge position is a strong endorsement of the new CEO. The CEO has raised forward guidance out there and he must be very confident to do that. This is impressive for a new CEO to do this.
BUY
It's a profitable company that's been slammed along with all tech stocks. They just replaced their chair-CEO is moving to executive chair and are bringing in a new CEO, a fintech veteran from Google. The move makes a lot of sense. Pinterest makes most of their money from digital ads but want to pivot into digital shopping.
COMMENT
PayPal should buy this. Makes a ton of sense.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
No one is worried about megacap tech stocks and that's a worry. Snap, Twitter and Pinterest, also Lyft have slid around 25% from their highs, and these are buying opportunities in the coming months.
HOLD
It's down 10% in the past month. Hold. It offers growth, which is why PayPal tried to buy it.
BUY ON WEAKNESS

Buy on the dip? He likes it. Users and advertisers love Pinterest. It has none of the baggage of Facebook.
