BUY

They last had a great quarter with 5-6 analysts raising price targets. It's been parabolic with a high valuation, but Adobe is best in class.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 30/21, Up 21.3%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with ADBE has achieved its $565 target. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering 50% of the holding and trailing up the stop to $465 -- the original recommended entry.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks Adobe has beaten its last four quarters, after all, so the street feels optimistic. Last March, Stockchase’s research department named this a top pick, based on a 26% yearly jump in revenues, driven by Adobe’s expanding cloud business. The street still loves this name with 17 buys and three holds at a price target of $571.67 or 5.6% upside. Read 3 Best Tech Stocks to Buy Now for our full analysis.

SELL ON STRENGTH

You never go bankrupt taking profits. It would make sense to trim it and use it to diversify your portfolio. When companies have had huge runs, you should do it. At this point, you should trim it by 20% or get your cost base back.

BUY

They give a great read in e-commerce. They report Thursday. Really likes the CEO. Lately, shares have been meandering, which is the best time to buy it. Was up 7.3% this week.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Recently reported revenues were up 26% over the year for the $215 billion market-cap company. Expansion of their cloud based services has been instrumental. Trading at 42x earnings, it is still cheap compared to its peers at 65x. Earnings are expected to grow another 18% this year. Over 80% of the stock is held by institutions, who have strong staying power. We would buy this with a stop loss at $400, looking to achieve $565 -- upside potential over 20%. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $565.37)

DON'T BUY

Last night they delivered a beautiful report and forecast, firing on all cylinders, across all their segments. Yet, none of that mattered in today's tech sell-off. Adobe is not considered a reopening play, so was out of favour, at least today. It may not be safe to buy this yet. Yes, that's insane. He loves Adobe, but there's downside risk. Investors avoid lockdown stocks now.

COMMENT

They report Tuesday. They may post great numbers, but the market may pay attention to the 10-year yield instead that day and ignore ADBE's good news. Unfair? "Deserve's got nothing to do with it," said in the film, Unforgiven.

BUY

Great company. Stock's done well as they've switched to a subscription model. Once you depend on using the products, you're in it for life. For example, gets students interested early. Well positioned going forward.

TOP PICK

Everyone should have this. A bit rich, but still some runway left. Price target of $563. Buy in thirds here around $460, at $440, and at $420. Very good support around $400-410. One-stop shop for product design, content creation, web design, e-commerce. Well diversified, clean balance sheet, stock is fairly valued. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $560.70)

BUY ON WEAKNESS

3-5-year outlook He sees it doubling in maybe 5 years. It's a megacap tech stock growing at 15% yearly; it continues to buyback shares and raise its dividend. it's entrenching into corporations and small businesses alike. It's a cornerstone tech stock like MFST. Buy on pullbacks to come. A solid buy.

DON'T BUY

A must own name. Last quarter their earnings beat revenues with 43% profit margins. It has had a huge move. 15% compound annual growth, trading at 38x 2022 earnings. It is pricey so you could see some pull back around ~$30-$40 below current levels when the market cycles into value.

BUY

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks The company beat earnings estimates at $2.81/share vs. the street's $2.66 as earnings jumped 23% and sales 14%. EPS topped guidance at $0.17 vs. the street's $0.15. Looking ahead, Adobe issued positive guidance for the current quarter and full year. For fiscal 2021, the company projects adjusted EPS at $11.20 on $15.15 billion in sales vs. Wall Street's $11.17 on $14.78 billion. Compare this to 2020's $10.10 and $12.87 billion. Cash flow is health, up from $1.32 billion in Q3 to $1.4 billion in Q4. Adobe even bought back 1.6 million shares late last year. Read Hit and Misses: 5 Tempting Tech Stocks for our full analysis.

STRONG BUY

One-stop shop for product design, content creation, marketing, web and mobile commerce. If you have one tech stock, this is it. Huge economic moat. Still long-term upside. Price target of $557. Organic and acquisitive growth. Three positives: historical EPS growth is 52%, Y/Y cashflow is over 25%, current earnings revised upwards. Loves it. Tremendous business.

PARTIAL BUY

BIGC-Q He prefers Adobe, a stock that people don't talk about anymore. Buy this even partially for now.
