Why Is Everyone Talking About Coupang's Stock?
Coupang (NYSE: CPNG) may not be a well-known company in the U.S., but it has certainly captured the hearts of consumers in South Korea, growing over the years to become the top e-commerce company in its home market. Coupang's solid performance has captured the attention of sharp-eyed investors, which explains its respectable 25% increase in stock price in the last 12 months (as of this writing). Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » This article will delve deeper into the company and explore why investors are excited about it. The Amazon of South Korea and beyond Amazon has arguably been the most successful e-commerce company over the last two decades, leading to numerous clones attempting to replicate its business model in their respective markets. Most either don't perform well or fail outright, except for a handful, such as in China and Coupang in South Korea. Inspired by Amazon's customer obsession, Coupang strives to please its customers continually. One way is to provide a wide selection of products to customers, delivered at breathtaking speeds via its extensive in-house warehouse and logistics infrastructure. For instance, consumers can order fresh groceries and millions of other general merchandise items by midnight and receive products by 7 a.m. the next morning. If customers are unhappy with the products, they can tap a button on the app and leave the item outside their door for pickup -- refunds will be processed immediately after pickup. But that's just one part of the story. Coupang's efforts to delight its users have expanded far beyond their roots into other areas, including food delivery, online streaming, and services such as free appliance and furniture installations. Customers are eligible for all these perks for free if they join the Wow membership program. Unsurprisingly, customers love this approach, which explains Coupang's leading market share of 25% in South Korea. Coupang's success in South Korea has also prompted the company to expand into new geographies, such as Taiwan, and new business segments via the acquisition of Farfetch. While these new business additions will take time to bear fruit, they will open up new growth avenues for the e-commerce company. Coupang is executing well lately Coupang is also delivering solid growth. For the year ended Dec. 31, revenue surged by 24% (or 29% on an currency-neutral basis) to $30.3 billion on the back of growth in its e-commerce business and the acquisition of Farfetch. Coupang's growth continued into 2025, with revenue growing at 11% (or 21% on an currency-neutral basis ) to $7.9 billion. Top-line growth is just one part of the story. Coupang has gradually improved its margins over time, with adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margins improving from 3.9% to 4.8% in the last five quarters. The tech company targets adjusted EBITDA margins to exceed 10% in the long run, suggesting that there is still considerable room for improvement. In short, while Coupang is already generating tens of billions in revenue, it is well-positioned to sustain its growth momentum, leveraging its world-class infrastructure, vast customer base, and customer-obsessed culture. Coupang authorized a $1 billion share buyback plan Coupang's recent share buyback plan is a significant milestone for several reasons. One, it suggests that Coupang has evolved from a high-growth, loss-making company to one that's growing more sustainably and responsibly. To the extent that it can return excess cash to shareholders, such a move also signals the company's confidence in its future, suggesting that management may view the shares as undervalued compared to the company's prospects. Additionally, with ample cash on its balance sheet ($6.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents, as of the time of writing), management's share buyback plan demonstrates its discipline in capital allocation, which complements its other investments in growth and innovation. It also suggests that management has a clear strategy for capital allocation, which is likely to enhance long-term shareholder value. What it means for investors Coupang is a rare example of a successful Amazon clone that has achieved excellent outcomes. While continuing to execute its expansion strategy, Coupang is also on track to return excess cash to shareholders through share buybacks. Investors seeking to diversify their stock holdings beyond the U.S. may want to keep this company under their radar. Don't miss this second chance at a potentially lucrative opportunity Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks? Then you'll want to hear this. On rare occasions, our expert team of analysts issues a 'Double Down' stock recommendation for companies that they think are about to pop. If you're worried you've already missed your chance to invest, now is the best time to buy before it's too late. And the numbers speak for themselves: Nvidia: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2009, you'd have $363,030!* Apple: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2008, you'd have $38,088!* Netflix: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2004, you'd have $674,395!* Right now, we're issuing 'Double Down' alerts for three incredible companies, available when you join Stock Advisor, and there may not be another chance like this anytime soon.

Top Analysts Stay Bullish on Broadcom Stock (AVGO) Despite Post-Q2 Earnings Decline
Semiconductor company Broadcom (AVGO) reported a modest earnings beat for the second quarter of Fiscal 2025, driven by artificial intelligence (AI)-led demand for its offerings. However, AVGO stock was down more than 4% in Friday's pre-market trading (as of writing), as investors seemed to have lofty expectations from the maker of application-specific integrated circuits, or ASICs. Confident Investing Starts Here: Analysts React to Broadcom's Q2 FY25 Earnings Following the Q2 print, Baird analyst Tristan Gerra highlighted Broadcom's continued strong execution and solid fundamentals. While the 4-star analyst acknowledges that Broadcom is well-positioned to remain the leader in custom AI ASIC solutions, he argues that GPUs (graphics processing units) will continue to play a primary role, including in AI inferencing. He added that Broadcom's AI XPU revenue in 2026 could be mainly driven by new customers, while the Tomahawk 6 offering is expected to drive robust AI networking top-line growth in the first half of FY26. Gerra reaffirmed a Buy rating on AVGO stock but maintained the price target at $210, noting that the stock's valuation is rich, mainly compared to Nvidia (NVDA). He believes that Broadcom stock is trading at an elevated valuation, given his expectation of a 'potential 1H26 slowdown in XPU QoQ revenue comps before new customer ramps take place.' Meanwhile, Mizuho analyst Vijay Rakesh reiterated a Buy rating on Broadcom stock and increased the price target to $310 from $300, noting the company's industry-leading FY25 gross margin and operating margin estimates at about 79% and 65%, respectively, and expectation of free cash flow (FCF)/year growing to about $31 billion. The 5-star analyst pointed out the accelerating AI inference demand and projects Broadcom's AI revenue to grow to about $19 billion in FY25 and nearly $32 billion in FY26. Likewise, Deutsche Bank analyst Ross Seymore boosted the price target for Broadcom stock to $270 from $205 and reiterated a Buy rating. The 5-star analyst noted that the company's results and guidance were essentially in line with expectations, with the AI business delivering upside, the software business remaining steady, and the non-AI semiconductor business witnessing a slower recovery. Seymore contends that while the dearth of a cyclical recovery in the non-AI business could continue to be a headwind into Q4 FY25, he expects investors to 'more eagerly focus' on the rise in Broadcom's AI business. Is AVGO Stock a Buy, Hold, or Sell? Wall Street has a Strong Buy consensus rating on Broadcom stock based on 27 Buys and two Holds. The average AVGO stock price target of $260.39 indicates that the stock is fully valued at current levels. These ratings and price targets could see further revisions, as more analysts are expected to react to Broadcom's results and outlook.
