Strange, I could read it yesterday.

Cosmetics maker Elf Beauty falls after Muddy Waters unveils position
Shares in Californian vegan beauty company sank 15% on Wednesday

Shares in Elf Beauty sank after short seller Muddy Waters unveiled a bet against the US cosmetics maker.

The stock tumbled 15 per cent to $103, giving the Oakland-based company a market value of $6bn.

Muddy Water’s chief investment officer Carson Block announced the position against Elf on Wednesday at the Sohn Conference in London.

The company’s share price was down 15 per cent this year before the Muddy Waters announcement. The short seller stands to benefit financially as Elf’s share price falls.

Elf, short for EyesLipsFace, has developed a cult following among Gen Z and millennial consumers with low-priced vegan beauty products.

Elf did not immediately comment.

Why does this Qsmelly character keep telling us what the share price is every day when we can see it on the chart ??? Weird.

That’s all irrelevant to your trading strategy though isn’t it? Unless trying to de-ramp the share is part of the strategy. If you were so bothered by macro economic conditions on the share price of W7L you wouldn’t be buying it every few weeks at a higher price you sold it at. 🤪

Is there still a potential problem with liquidity of shares, there was some dicussion a while back over the directors ownership of shares and having to sell in order for there to be shares to buy/trade in the market.

And any comments re: W7L share trading in the US. I believe they are only otc listed.

At present it looks like the US is a small player in terms of revenue, comments as to how that may change appreciated. Walmart sales in particular, I imagine they strike a hard bargain with W7L.

GLA for a deserved uptick in share price (imho)

Nothing particularly unusual here. share price has doubled in 12-months on basis of future growth. So it's bound to be volatile from time to time. Present eps consensus for 2024 is about 24p so the current price is a PE of 24 or so. Probably a fair price for a growth-type stock like this with an excellent balance sheet (net cash about £9M).

I think the share price may wobble around 500-600p for some time now until either there is some exceptionally good news (price >600p) or bad (price <500p). As a long term holder I obviously hope for good news but I don't think it hurts for some consolidation from time to time. Forecast dividend yield is about 2% so this doesn't offer much share price support but this could increase in the future. Currently just under half of earnings is paid out n dividends.

All in all don't let these price fluctuations bother you. I bought into Warpaint at about 50p or so when they were going through bad trading and their share price had dropped a lot. These things happen...

I don't mute anyone as there's value in every post. Smelly's ramblings do allow me to consider the other side of my long trades. Usually it's all rubbish but it's good to absorb the ramblings of a madman. FWIW I started trading during the credit crunch in March 2009. I worked for Aviva and couldn't understand why the share price was down 75% and I was still in a job. So I put all my savings into the share scheme and made a packet over 6 months or so. At that point I caught the bug and have focused on companies that have a share price that doesn't make sense.

Schroders have to keep reducing as the W7L share price rises as they are limited as to how much of their portfolio they can hold in any one stock.
please pay attention;-))

Hi guys, I'm surprised that there are so few posters on this bb and also that there are so few threads on W7L on ADVFN, it tells me that still not too many people know about the stock (lots may know the brand however...sort of odd imho). This is the only current thread....mystery to my tiny mind

I bought into a US stock called Palantir Technologies after reading about it a lot in the US tech world, one of the headlines was Palantir vs NVIDIA, which will be better in the long run (5 yrs).

So I looked to see if there was a thread on ADVFN and there wasn't so I created one, I think it's a winner of course or wouldn't have bought it, sold dogs and added cash and bought 2nd largest holding after Warpaint.

The share price goes up most days, when down it's only a bit, so a bit like Warpaint, that's why I like it!

The blurb that follows is Motley Fool's take, but much better stuff on it on US media. I hope it may be of interest.

Where Will Palantir Technologies Stock Be in 5 Years?
• Palantir Technologies' growth is likely to accelerate thanks to the fast-growing adoption of its AI software platform.
• Analysts expect a big increase in its earnings over the next five years.
• Palantir's PEG ratio suggests the stock could be undervalued for the growth it is expected to deliver.
This AI stock has been on fire in 2024, but can it sustain its impressive rally in the long run?
Investors have been buying Palantir Technologies (PLTR 1.49%) stock hand over fist in 2024, which is evident from the 67% gains clocked by the company that's known for providing data analysis software platforms to both government and commercial customers. Artificial intelligence (AI) played a central role in Palantir stock's surge this year as the growing adoption of this technology across the globe led to a nice bump in the company's revenue pipeline.
But will Palantir be able to sustain its AI-fueled growth in the long run and deliver solid returns to investors over the next five years? Let's find out.

Palantir Technologies is serving a fast-growing market
Precedence Research estimates the market for AI software could increase at an annual rate of 23% through 2032, generating annual revenue of just over $1 trillion at the end of the forecast period. Palantir reported revenue of $2.3 billion in the trailing 12 months, suggesting it has massive room for growth in the long run. AI has already started moving the needle for Palantir. The company's revenue in the first quarter of 2024 increased 21% year over year to $634 million.
However, a closer look at certain other metrics indicates that Palantir's growth is set to accelerate. For instance, Palantir's commercial revenue increased 27% year over year in the first quarter of 2024 to $299 million, outpacing the growth of its overall revenue. U.S. commercial revenue grew at an even faster pace of 40%.
The stronger growth in Palantir's commercial revenue can be attributed to the growing adoption of the company's AI software platforms, which is evident from the remarks made by management on the May earnings conference call: "U.S. commercial is where we're seeing the greatest transformation. While Q1 is seasonally our slowest quarter, AIP adoption by new and existing customers helped drive notable growth in customer acquisition and revenue in our U.S. commercial business."
A key reason why customers have been adopting Palantir's Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) software and increasing their usage of it is because of the efficiency gains that they are witnessing. The company points out that its customers "are realizing the extensive possibilities of AIP within their own enterprises and increasing their scope accordingly."
As a result, there is a solid chance that Palantir's revenue growth will improve in the future. The company's remaining deal value stood at $4.1 billion in Q1, an increase of 22% from the prior year. Its remaining performance obligations grew at a faster pace of 39% year over year to $1.3 billion. Both these metrics are indicators of Palantir's future growth potential.
The remaining deal value is the total remaining value of contracts with Palantir's customers at the end of a particular period. Meanwhile, remaining performance obligations refer to "the total values of contracts that have been entered into with, or awarded by, our customers, and represent non-cancelable contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized."
As these metrics increased at a healthier pace than Palantir's revenue in Q1, there is a good chance that its top-line growth will pick up in the future. More importantly, Palantir points out that the strong unit economics of its business is leading to an improvement in its margin profile as well. Its non-GAAP (adjusted) operating margin improved by an impressive 12 percentage points year over year in Q1 to 36%.
More importantly, Palantir expects "the favorable unit economics and higher throughput to continue to accelerate our business," which probably explains why analysts expect its bottom-line growth to remain solid.
Terrific earnings growth is expected over the next five years
Analysts expect Palantir's tremendous earnings growth momentum to continue over the next five years. Its earnings are forecast to increase at an annual rate of 85% in the next five years, and there is a good chance that Palantir could indeed deliver such growth thanks to the huge addressable market it serves and its improving margin profile.
This is also the reason why Palantir stock is undervalued based on the price/earnings-to-growth ratio (PEG ratio), which is a forward-looking valuation metric that takes a company's potential growth into account. The PEG ratio is calculated by dividing a company's trailing price-to-earnings ratio by the estimated growth that it could deliver.

Simply Wall Street article on W7L yesterday, worth reading the whole thing and take it where you will.

Despite an already strong run, Warpaint London PLC (LON:W7L) shares have been powering on, with a gain of 27% in the last thirty days. The annual gain comes to 135% following the latest surge, making investors sit up and take notice.
Since its price has surged higher, Warpaint London may be sending very bearish signals at the moment with a price-to-earnings (or "P/E") ratio of 35.7x, since almost half of all companies in the United Kingdom have P/E ratios under 16x and even P/E's lower than 9x are not unusual. Although, it's not wise to just take the P/E at face value as there may be an explanation why it's so lofty.
Recent times have been advantageous for Warpaint London as its earnings have been rising faster than most other companies. It seems that many are expecting the strong earnings performance to persist, which has raised the P/E. You'd really hope so, otherwise you're paying a pretty hefty price for no particular reason.
See our latest analysis for Warpaint London
AIM:W7L Price to Earnings Ratio vs Industry July 2nd 2024Want the full picture on analyst estimates for the company? Then our free report on Warpaint London will help you uncover what's on the horizon.
What Are Growth Metrics Telling Us About The High P/E?
In order to justify its P/E ratio, Warpaint London would need to produce outstanding growth well in excess of the market.
Retrospectively, the last year delivered an exceptional 122% gain to the company's bottom line. Still, EPS has barely risen at all from three years ago in total, which is not ideal. Therefore, it's fair to say that earnings growth has been inconsistent recently for the company.
Turning to the outlook, the next three years should generate growth of 17% each year as estimated by the three analysts watching the company. That's shaping up to be materially higher than the 15% each year growth forecast for the broader market.
With this information, we can see why Warpaint London is trading at such a high P/E compared to the market. It seems most investors are expecting this strong future growth and are willing to pay more for the stock.
The Final Word
The strong share price surge has got Warpaint London's P/E rushing to great heights as well. It's argued the price-to-earnings ratio is an inferior measure of value within certain industries, but it can be a powerful business sentiment indicator.
We've established that Warpaint London maintains its high P/E on the strength of its forecast growth being higher than the wider market, as expected. At this stage investors feel the potential for a deterioration in earnings isn't great enough to justify a lower P/E ratio. Unless these conditions change, they will continue to provide strong support to the share price.
Having said that, be aware Warpaint London is showing 1 warning sign in our investment analysis, you should know about.

RE: What AI thinks to Warpaint - re: ELFToday 11:20
So, current Warpaint share price is 630p and a fairly elevated PE ratio of 35, for UK markets.

I have just looked at ELF Beauty: share price $210 (up from about $115 a year ago) and a PE of 95!!!!! It doesn't even pay a divi. It seems a good example of how undervalued UK shares are generally, while US ones are relatively overvalued.

At the end of April I read an article about how high the cyclically-adjusted PE (CAPE) is in the US. It's higher than around 2000 and 2021, which both preceded crashes, and is almost double it's long-term average. If it was to mimic the previous declines it would imply a 40% plus reduction in share prices. However, since then the S&P seems to have resumed it's previous trajectory. Let's hope UK markets keep some optimism, though with the general election, the next few days could be shaky.
