MGM Resorts price target raised to $59 from $57 at Jefferies 09:17 MGM Jefferies analyst David Katz raised the firm's price target on MGM Resorts to $59 from $57 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares as part of his earnings preview for the casino gaming group. He is taking a more conservative stance on Q4 and Q1, while also updating his digital value assumptions and reflecting other events in his targets, such as the concession progress in Macau, Katz tells investors.---------------
Limelight Networks price target bumped to $5 at Lake Street after Q4 report 08:39 LLNW Lake Street analyst Eric Martinuzzi raised the firm's price target on Limelight Networks to $5 from $4.50 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares after the company reported Q4 results and gave 2022 guidance that was "slightly" ahead of expectations. He believes a return to growth and more consistent execution will support a higher valuation, Martinuzzi added.
Mercedes-Benz passenger cars a 'major win' for Luminar, says Northland 08:47 LAZR, NVDA, INTC, DDAIF Northland analyst Gus Richard reiterates his Outperform rating on Luminar Technologies (LAZR) after the company announced a partnership with Mercedes-Benz (DDAIF) to accelerate development of future automated driving technologies for passenger cars, calling the deal "a major commercial win for Luminar." Given reference designs at Nvidia (NVDA), a partnership with Intel's (INTC) Mobileye, the first production cars with Lidar in 2022 and now Mercedes' passenger car win, it is "difficult to dispute" that Luminar is "the Lidar Leader," argues Richard.
Once a SPAC always a SPAC?
The market is bottoming the correction is almost over.
There always is this somewhat unfounded fear that the The Fed will raise rates recklessly into the face of a recession or drastic slow down. When that happens it's game over.
But what is happening now is really good. Just two months ago I was getting cyclical pitches about where to put my money and the view of this rip roaring economy I was not buying. Everybody else was including the all important bond market.
The truth is the consumer is rejecting these higher prices and that's a very good thing.Often this does not happen given a few dollars in the pocket Americans happily spend it but politics is in the way here and for once it works to our advantage. All the Biden haters can have INFLATION, a word half of them didn't know to start with, as their boogie man-- inflation the fact that everything costs more they blame Biden. This is the new political divide.
WE are probably going to end up with 3% growth in the economy.
Taken in that view these 4 rate hikes priced are probably not going to happen. It looks like a calm 3.

The rather muted response of our IMAX to the NFLX miss tells us something.
You would think if streaming growth has slowed dramatically people are returing to theaters.
That is not happening.
IMAX CEO Richard Gelfond told Yahoo Finance that he doesn't expect COVID-19 disruptions to "cause a big negative for the year." Instead, he insisted a big risk for 2022 is studios' lack of faith in the theatrical release model.
"During 2021, [studios] took a lot of movies and put them on day-and-date streaming and as a result of that they didn't have good box office performance," the CEO explained.
Gelfond added that, even on the streaming side, the numbers showed that "people didn't sign up for streamers for movies...the model of selling simultaneous streaming didn't work."
Still, the metrics of comparing a streaming view to a movie ticket are puzzling to experts, and it's been difficult to measure success in this hybrid environment.
"We don't have very much insight into streaming numbers and, even what we do see, it's not remotely comparable. So in terms of how these movies are profiting or not profiting, the water is very muddy right there," Shawn Robbins, chief analyst at Box Office Pro, previously told Yahoo Finance.
The analyst added that it's tough to pinpoint the impact that a simultaneous streaming release has on box office figures./////
VERDICT- STREAMING IS HERE TO STAY.
MOVIE THEATERS ARE CLOSE TO BEING A THING OF THE PAST....
