Market Whales and Their Recent Bets on CPRI Options

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) analysts Tom Narayan and Brad Erickson highlight the company's potential with FSD and robotaxis and also share thoughts on whether the electric vehicle giant could work with Uber Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) and Lyft Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>) instead of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41295072/tesla-robotaxi-day-event-more-fanfare-than-substance-8-analysts-on-cybercab-optimus">competing against them.</a>
Tesla FSD, Autonomous Opportunity: RBC hosted investors at Tesla's Giga Texas facility and now has "increasing confidence" in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41259841/uber-vs-tesla-maybe-not-analysts-say-autonomous-vehicles-will-be-market-expanding">company's autonomous vehicle goals</a>, along with more confidence in seeing the company's competitive advantages in manufacturing over other automotive companies.
Narayan and Erickson, who have an Outperform rating on Tesla, raised the price target from $249 to $313.
"While we think much of the stock's post-election share price move is not rooted in fundamentals, we like the risk/reward of our implied upside value/share versus our downside," the analysts said.
The analysts said the automotive sector remains challenging and Tesla stock could see near-term pressure, but has a chance for long-term growth thanks to FSD innovation. The analysts assign a value of $102 per share for Tesla's FSD business, cars represent $36 per share and robotaxis represent $136 per share.
The analysts said Donald Trump&#8216;s elimination of the electric vehicle credit could be a net negative for Tesla, which is expected to gain market share as a result.
Tesla's newest version of FSD includes a "hands-off" allowance for roads in the United States, which could put Tesla ahead of other competitors, the analysts said.
"Almost every OEM L2+ product in the market currently has limitations. Most do not take exits, make turns, and in some cases do automatic lane changes."
The analysts expect FSD pricing to come down to $50 per month for consumers, but see the future opportunity to increase the price to $100 per month with new features.
Tesla could earn $83 billion in revenue from FSD and could see $22 billion in licensing revenue for the software by 2035, the analysts said.
The analysts see FSD's value rising from $61 per share to $102 per share, representing 33% of the overall price target on Tesla and 64% of the price target increase.
RBC's tour of Giga Texas also led to a price increase on Tesla cars, thanks to the company's vertical integration and cost structure advantages over the competition.

Robotaxi Opportunity: The analysts said Tesla is committed to owning all pieces of the robotaxi ecosystem, which includes the vehicle, software and app. This could give the company a competitive cost advantage over other autonomous vehicles, the analysts added.
Narayan and Erickson think Tesla could represent a 20% share of robotaxis in the U.S., 6% in Europe, and 8% in China.
While Tesla robotaxis could be bad news for ride-hail companies like Uber and Lyft, the analysts see an opportunity for the market size to grow and for potential partnerships.
"Ride volumes would increase dramatically, helped by lower pricing coming from AV ridesharing," the analysts said. "Currently, only 1% of miles driven in the U.S. for example, come from ridesharing."
Tesla has around two million vehicles on the road in the US and Uber has 70 million to 80 million active users, the analysts noted.
"As such, partnering with Uber makes sense to expand its customer base."
Erickson said he has "rising conviction" that Tesla could be more open to working with Uber and Lyft at some point.
"We believe the successful AV networks of the future will involve deeply integrated partnerships composed of OEMs, suppliers, software-enablers and ride-hailing networks all playing their critical roles in delivering a safe, reliable and, importantly, economically sustainable service."
Erickson said Uber and Lyft are likely to benefit from a growing total addressable market expansion for ride-hail and robotaxis with or without a partnership from Tesla.
"We believe Tesla is more mindful of maintaining some level of economic rationality than we might have thought previously and would view them more as a partnership candidate over time."
Without partnerships with Lyft and Uber, Tesla could have to spend tens of billions of dollars to reach "adequate marketplace density and liquidity."
RBC has an Outperform rating on Lyft with a $24 price target. RBC has an Outperform rating on Uber with an $82 price target.
TSLA, UBER, LYFT Price Action: Tesla stock is up 3% to $320.41 on Friday versus a 52-week trading range of $138.80 to $358.64. Tesla stock is up 29% year-to-date.
Uber stock is up 2% to $73.00 on Friday versus a 52-week trading range of $53.15 to $87.00. Uber stock is up 25% year-to-date.

Tesla To Partner With Lyft, Uber? Analyst Has 'Rising Conviction' For Future Partnership

Tilray Brands Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLRY#NASDAQ">TLRY</a>) faces a new shareholder lawsuit accusing the Canadian cannabis company of misleading voting practices for a second consecutive year. 
The legal complaint, filed on October 31, 2024 in the Delaware Court of Chancery, alleges that Tilray misled investors regarding the voting requirements to increase its authorized shares, <a href="https://www.investing.com/news/company-news/tilray-faces-shareholder-lawsuit-over-voting-standards-93CH-3707585">reported</a> Investing.com.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Disputed Voting Standards And Shareholder Allegations</h3>
According to the lawsuit, Tilray's proxy statements for the 2023 and 2024 annual meetings inaccurately presented the voting standards needed for approval. The plaintiff argues that the company required only a majority of votes cast, rather than a majority of all outstanding shares, to pass proposals that increased the number of authorized shares. This discrepancy, the complaint claims, invalidates the approval and subsequent issuances of new common stock.
The lawsuit contends that Tilray's board of directors breached their fiduciary duties by failing to provide accurate information.
The plaintiff seeks to block the company from holding a vote on the 2024 Authorized Shares Proposal at the upcoming annual meeting scheduled for November 21, 2024. Additionally, the lawsuit demands reimbursement of legal fees and related costs for the affected shareholders.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Tilray's Defense And Institutional Support</h3>
Tilray, however, firmly denies the allegations, stating that its voting practices comply with the 2023 amendments to Delaware's General Corporation Law. 
The company maintains that the lower threshold for stockholder approval aligns with legal standards for corporations listed on national exchanges. Tilray's management argues that the increase in authorized shares is necessary for enhancing financial flexibility and facilitating strategic acquisitions.
Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) has endorsed Tilray's proposal, recommending shareholders vote in favor of the increase, citing no significant concerns over past share usage.

The U.S. Treasury Department has released its <a href="https://www.fincen.gov/frequently-requested-foia-processed-records">quarterly report</a>, revealing that last year, over 830 financial institutions nationwide have officially acknowledged relationships with state-licensed cannabis businesses. According to a <a href="https://norml.org/news/2024/11/14/treasury-report-over-800-banking-institutions-report-relationships-with-state-licensed-cannabis-businesses/?link_id=5&amp;can_id=23ddea46021350bb8012464da757f45b&amp;source=email-norml-news-of-the-week-11142024&amp;email_referrer=email_2530540&amp;email_subject=norml-news-of-the-week-11142024">report</a> from the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), this number reflects a modest increase from the previous year and represents nearly double the number of banks and credit unions engaged with the cannabis sector in 2018.
However, despite this growth, fewer than 10% of all financial institutions in the U.S. currently provide services to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis">cannabis industry</a>. The ongoing hesitation among banks stems from federal law, which classifies marijuana as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/federal-schedule-i">Schedule I controlled substance</a>. This classification poses significant legal risks for banks, even when working with businesses fully compliant with state cannabis regulations.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Legislative Stalemate Continues To Hinder Progress</h3>
Efforts to resolve the banking issue have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39730510/house-gop-divided-over-cannabis-strikes-banking-protections-from-bill-respect-the-will-of-these-">repeatedly stalled in Congress</a>. The U.S. House of Representatives has passed legislation seven times to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/secure-and-fair-enforcement-safe-banking-act">protect financial institutions</a> that serve cannabis businesses from federal penalties. Yet, the Senate has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39324658/gop-controlled-house-strips-cannabis-banking-protections-from-government-spending-bill-in-blow-t">failed to advance</a> these proposals to a floor vote, leaving the cannabis industry in a precarious financial position.
The lack of clear federal guidelines continues to deter many banks, exacerbating the challenges faced by cannabis businesses in securing banking services and investment capital. According to a survey by Whitney Economics, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/22/01/25324529/survey-72-of-cannabis-operators-say-lack-of-banking-is-biggest-problem-even-fewer-are-making-pro">over 70% of cannabis operators</a> cited limited access to banking and capital as their primary obstacle.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Impact On Smaller And Minority-Owned Businesses</h3>
The absence of comprehensive banking reform disproportionately impacts smaller and minority-owned cannabis businesses, which often rely on traditional financing to grow and operate. NORML, the first cannabis advocacy group in U.S., has called on Congress to amend federal banking laws. "No industry can operate safely, transparently, or effectively without access to banks or other financial institutions. The players in this industry, particularly smaller and minority-owned businesses, and their consumers will remain severely hampered without better access to credit and financing," said NORML deputy director Paul Armentano.
The lack of federal legalization and banking access for cannabis has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/04/31671933/is-the-cannabis-industry-ignoring-minority-communities">disproportionately impacted minorities</a> and small businesses. Many entrepreneurs, especially from marginalized communities, face significant barriers to entry in the cannabis industry due to limited access to financial services, such as loans and credit. This forces many to operate in cash, increasing risks and operational difficulties. Additionally, the continued federal prohibition contributes to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/22/08/28566915/racism-blossoms-in-states-with-criminal-penalties-for-cannabis-possession">racial disparities in arrests</a> and convictions related to cannabis, even as legalization spreads at the state level. Without full legalization and banking reform, these barriers hinder economic opportunities for minority business owners and perpetuate systemic inequities.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Path Forward: SAFER Banking Act</h3>
The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/safer-banking-act">SAFER Banking Act</a> remains a key focus for cannabis advocates, who argue that it would provide the much-needed clarity and legal protection for financial institutions willing to work with the industry. The bill&#8217;s future remains tied to the broader <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cannabis-rescheduling">debate over federal cannabis policy</a>, and advocates <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/10/41133218/house-democrats-urge-dea-to-speed-up-cannabis-rescheduling">continue to push for its passage</a> to ensure safer, more equitable conditions for cannabis businesses across the U.S. For now, the limited participation of banks underscores the persistent legal uncertainty surrounding cannabis, even as the industry continues to expand across state markets.

Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) plans to challenge recent court decisions that allow several states and hundreds of school districts across the United States to proceed with lawsuits.
These legal actions accuse Meta's <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41349398/mark-zuckerbergs-meta-to-face-lawsuits-over-teen-social-media-addiction-judge-rejects-dismissal-moti" rel="noreferrer noopener">social media platforms</a>, including Facebook and Instagram, of contributing to a mental health crisis among young users.
The company filed appeals late Thursday, seeking a review by the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

The appeals follow separate rulings by a federal judge in California last month, which rejected Meta's requests to dismiss the lawsuits, Bloomberg <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-15/meta-to-appeal-orders-letting-schools-states-sue-over-addiction?srnd=homepage-Americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers ruled in favor of 34 state attorneys general who argued that Meta's social media platforms, Facebook and Instagram, have had detrimental effects on youth mental health, leading to claims of negligence and public harm.
However, Judge Rogers largely denied motions to dismiss negligence claims but limited specific allegations, referencing Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.
Alongside Meta, other tech giants such as Snap Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) and Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) were also named in lawsuits filed by various school districts.
TikTok&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41243023/tiktok-gets-sued-13-states-and-dc-accuse-chinese-platform-of-boosting-corporate-profits-via-social-m" rel="noreferrer noopener">faces regulatory action</a> from&nbsp;13 U.S. states and the&nbsp;District of Columbia for allegedly harming the youth.
Meta's legal team is moving forward with the appeal. The company argues that its platforms are not directly responsible for the alleged mental health issues, citing protections under existing internet laws.
Meta, Snap, and TikTok jointly launched Thrive to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40846628/meta-snap-and-tiktok-come-together-to-combat-suicide-and-self-harm-content-online-will-share-signals" rel="noreferrer noopener">tackle the spread</a> of harmful content related to self-harm and suicide on their platforms.
The program enables these social media companies to share alerts about graphic content, enhancing efforts to limit its reach.
The Mental Health Coalition collaborates with companies to help address concerns and reduce the stigma around mental health issues online.
Meta reported removing over 12 million posts related to suicide and self-harm on Facebook and Instagram between April and June this year.
Recently, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/11/41862616/meta-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-dodges-personal-liability-in-child-social-media-addiction-lawsuits-federal-judge-cites-lack-of-evidence" rel="noreferrer noopener">Rogers ruled</a> that Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is not personally liable in 25 lawsuits alleging social media addiction among children.
Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers dismissed claims suggesting Zuckerberg ignored internal warnings about mental health risks on Facebook and Instagram.
The plaintiffs argued that Zuckerberg downplayed the dangers, but the judge cited insufficient evidence of his direct involvement.
The ruling only applies to claims against Zuckerberg, while similar legal challenges against Meta remain unaffected.
Price Action: META stock is down 3.73% at $555.66 at the last check on Friday.

What the Options Market Tells Us About Intuit

Pfizer Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>) shares are lower on Thursday due to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42013119/whats-going-on-with-large-european-and-us-vaccine-makers"> news </a>that President-elect Donald Trump picked Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as his next secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. This has some investors concerned because Kennedy was critical of certain vaccines and vaccinations.
Some believe the weakness in the stock may present a buying opportunity. This is why our team of expert traders and technical analysts has made it our Stock of the Day.
On Wall Street, many trading strategies and methods are based on the concept of reversion to the mean. If something goes too far one way, there is a good chance that it reverses and comes back the other way.
Most of the time, a stock stays in what is known as its trading range. But sometimes investors and traders can become emotional and aggressive. They can push the shares out of the range.
When this happens, there may be opportunities to profit. There is a good chance there will be a reversion back to the mean.

If a stock is below its typical or average range, traders say that it is &#8220;oversold.&#8221; Some anticipate a reversal back to the average. This would mean a move higher.
So, they enter the market as buyers. This could put pressure on the stock and force the price higher. It could become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
The lower part of the chart is the Relative Strength Index (RSI) momentum indicator. When the blue line crosses below the horizontal red line, it indicates oversold conditions. As you can see, that is the case now. Pfizer is very oversold.
There is also another reason why the stock may reverse and head higher.
The shares have dropped to a price level that was support in April. Stocks tend to have support at levels that had been support before. Sometimes they can even rally off of support.
There are traders and investors who sold at the support level in April and regretted doing so when the price moved higher. Some decide to buy their shares back if they can at the same price they were sold.
So, now that the shares are back to their selling price, they are placing buy orders. This creates support.
The combination of being oversold and at support means there is a good chance Pfizer reverses and heads higher.
