Why AMC Entertainment Stock Just Popped
Key Points AMC broke even in Q2, losing no money -- or at least not much. The company also generated substantial free cash flow in the quarter. For the first half of 2025, however, AMC stock remains free cash flow negative. 10 stocks we like better than AMC Entertainment › Shares of meme stock and theater operator AMC Entertainment (NYSE: AMC) jumped 3.8% through 12:10 p.m. ET Monday after exceeding expectations for second-quarter earnings. Heading into today's report, analysts forecast AMC to lose $0.09 per share (adjusted for one-time items) on sales of just over $1.3 billion. In fact, AMC broke even with a loss of $0, and sales were just under $1.4 billion. AMC Q2 earnings AMC actually did lose some money. (Only the adjusted results showed breakeven numbers.) When calculated according to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), AMC lost $0.01 per share -- which was still much better than the $0.10 per share the company lost in last year's Q2. The best news of all, though, is that free cash flow for the quarter turned positive, with AMC generating positive cash profits of $88.9 million in the quarter. CEO Adam Aron argued this result "showcased the impressive operating leverage inherent in our business," and expressed the hope that this is "a harbinger of things to come." Is AMC stock a buy now? Before you get too excited about AMC stock, however, there are some caveats to consider: First and foremost is that, while AMC generated cash in Q2, it burned a lot of cash in Q1, such that FCF for the first six months of this year is still deeply negative: $328.1 million -- and actually, a bit worse than the company was doing one year ago. To offset the cash burn, AMC is still taking on new debt ($240 million in Q2) and converting old debt to dilutive stock ($143 million). Long story short, breakeven is good. Profitable and FCF-positive would be better. AMC stock is still a sell for me. Should you invest $1,000 in AMC Entertainment right now?

2 Stocks That Have More Than Doubled in the Past Year and Still Have Room to Run
Key Points FuboTV's business is already improving even before it merges with a larger streaming platform. SoFi's financial results look incredibly strong, and it still has attractive growth opportunities. 10 stocks we like better than fuboTV › Although they have faced some issues, FuboTV (NYSE: FUBO) and SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ: SOFI) have rebounded significantly. Both companies have seen their shares more than double over the trailing-12-month period. At this point, many investors might wonder if it's too late to invest in these stocks. The answer, in my view, is a resounding no. Even with their excellent recent runs, there is still plenty of upside for FuboTV and SoFi Technologies. Here is more on these potential long-term market beaters. 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 » 1. FuboTV FuboTV, a sports-focused streaming service, recently saw its shares surge after announcing preliminary second-quarter results. The company expects revenue of over $365 million, well above the midpoint of its guidance of $345 million. FuboTV is also projecting that its paid subscribers for the period will come in ahead of the midpoint of its prior guidance. That's all well and good, but FuboTV's stock is up by more than 100% this year for another reason. The company is merging with Disney 's Hulu+ Live TV. This move will address several problems for FuboTV. First, it will help diversify its offerings. The world of sports is somewhat seasonal, and fans sometimes pay for subscriptions accordingly. Second, Disney has now given up on Venu, a competitor to FuboTV in the sports streaming niche it was considering launching with two other media giants. This kind of competition would have been challenging for FuboTV to overcome, considering its subscriber growth rates were dropping and the company remained unprofitable. Third, FuboTV now has the backing of Disney, a media juggernaut with a successful streaming platform. Disney will become FuboTV's majority owner once the deal closes. No doubt, the House of Mouse will utilize its expertise and industry knowledge to guide FuboTV and help it achieve success. There is still ample room for growth in streaming as cable continues to decline. And although the new FuboTV will still encounter competition, it is now on much more secure footing than it was a year ago, not least because of a $145 million term loan from Disney and a $220 million payment from the former backers of the Venu venture. The fact that FuboTV's core business, excluding Hulu, is performing even better than expected -- as the company's preliminary results showed -- makes the stock even more attractive. There should be plenty of upside for investors who hold on to this stock for a while. 2. SoFi Technologies SoFi does its business entirely online. It does not have a single retail location. Although legacy banks have adapted to this model, it has been SoFi's strategy from the beginning, and the company has gained popularity for this reason, especially among younger generations. This model also enables SoFi to reduce overhead costs. And although it faced significant volatility some years ago, the company has been on fire over the trailing-12-month period: Shares are up by more than 200%. It's not hard to understand why when we look at SoFi's financial results. In the second quarter, SoFi's total net revenue was up 43% year over year to $854.9 million, while its net income came in at $97.2 million, a whopping 459% higher than the year-ago period. Importantly, SoFi's ecosystem continues to grow. The company ended the quarter with 11.7 million members and 17.1 million products, representing a 34% year-over-year increase in both metrics. Note what this means: SoFi has an average of 1.5 products per member despite having a pretty long list of offerings. This grants the company significant growth potential even within its current ecosystem by cross-selling existing products to its members. Sure, it is already doing that. SoFi pointed out that during the second quarter, 35% of new products were opened by existing members. Still, there is considerable room to grow, thanks to the company's expanding user base. Furthermore, SoFi has consistently expanded its product platform and should continue to do so. That's another way it can improve its financial results. Lastly, SoFi will benefit in the long run as banking activity continues to shift to online channels. The stock may experience volatility if the economy enters a recession. That would affect demand for some of the company's products. That said, downturns don't last forever, and thanks to its significantly improved business recently -- including turning a profit -- SoFi looks better equipped than ever to handle economic challenges. Even if there is one on the way, the company could overcome it and continue growing long after. That's why the stock remains attractive today even after its recent run.

10 Reasons to Buy and Hold This High-Yield Energy Stock Forever
Key Points This energy stock has a huge 5.8% dividend yield. The company is focused on the most reliable part of the energy sector. Management's biggest goal is supplying the world with the energy it needs, no matter what form that energy takes. 10 stocks we like better than Enbridge › Enbridge(NYSE: ENB) is one of my core energy holdings. That's partly related to the lofty 5.8% dividend yield, but the real linchpin is the company's diversified energy business. Here are 10 reasons why I own Enbridge and why you might want to own it, too. 1. Enbridge has an attractive dividend yield I'm a dividend investor, so Enbridge's dividend yield is important to me. At 5.8%, it is high on an absolute basis. But it is high on a relative basis, too. For example, the S&P 500(SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) is offering only a scant 1.2% yield. And the average energy stock's yield is just 3.3% or so. If you like dividends, as I do, Enbridge is going to be attractive. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » 2. Its dividend is reliable I learned the hard way that buying stocks based on their yield alone is a mistake, which is why I also focus on dividend history. Focusing on companies that regularly increase their dividends quickly weeds out many poor-quality businesses. Enbridge has hiked its dividend (in Canadian dollars) for 30 consecutive years. It has proven to be a reliable dividend stock. 3. Enbridge has a strong financial foundation Even historically reliable dividend payers sometimes cut their dividends. So, it is also important to check the balance sheet. Enbridge has an investment-grade credit rating. That means it not only has a strong financial foundation but also has access to affordable capital when it taps the debt markets. 4. It has a solid business model On top of the foundation here, Enbridge has built a highly reliable and boring business. That's great news because it operates in the highly volatile energy sector. Essentially, it owns the infrastructure assets, such as pipelines, that move oil and natural gas around the world. It charges fees for the use of these assets, which generates the income it uses to pay that fat dividend. Given the importance of energy to modern life, demand for Enbridge's services tends to be robust regardless of commodity prices. 5. Enbridge is big enough to be an industry consolidator There are plenty of companies that do something similar to what Enbridge does. But Enbridge happens to be one of the largest players in the midstream sector in North America. Being a roughly $100 billion market cap industry giant not only provides the company with scale but also means that Enbridge can buy up smaller peers to augment its business or expand into new businesses (more on this below). That's helped along, of course, by the company's financial strength. 6. It has plenty of levers to pull Not only can Enbridge grow via acquisition, but its vast portfolio of assets also affords it plenty of opportunity for capital investment. In fact, internal growth is a core focus as the company looks to upgrade assets and expand capacity. And when it buys new assets, it often looks for situations where it can add value over time via additional capital investment, helping to create a virtuous and ongoing cycle of growth. Which brings up the next point: the other assets Enbridge owns. 7. Enbridge is getting regulated in a good way Enbridge's core business is moving oil and natural gas. However, its big-picture focus is to provide the world with the energy it needs. Which is why the company has been shifting more and more toward natural gas and other cleaner energy sources. For example, it recently bought three regulated natural gas utilities from Dominion Energy(NYSE: D). Not only are these regulated assets reliable cash-flow generators, but they also shift the business toward a cleaner fuel and provide ongoing investment opportunities. This move solidifies the company's growth prospects and makes additional dividend hikes more likely. 8. Its future isn't just about gas The shift toward natural gas is one key reason why I like Enbridge's energy business. But the hidden value here is the company's modest exposure to renewable power. Enbridge has been investing in clean energy for a while now and understands the business well. It owns some large offshore wind farms in Europe and other, more modest renewable power assets. This toehold prepares Enbridge for a future in which meeting the world's energy needs means focusing more on clean energy. I expect it to increase the scope of this business slowly over time, which is what I expect the world to do, too. 9. Enbridge is easier than an MLP Enbridge has peers that offer similar positives, most notably Enterprise Products Partners(NYSE: EPD). But Enbridge is a traditional corporation, while Enterprise is a master limited partnership (MLP), which is significantly more complex to own. I prefer to keep my financial life as simple as possible, and dealing with the K-1 tax forms that MLPs require every year just isn't worth it to me if I can get all the benefits without the hassle from a great business like Enbridge. 10. I can skip the tax headache from owning a Canadian stock There's one problem with Enbridge that is a bit more nuanced. As a Canadian company, U.S. shareholders have to pay Canadian taxes on the dividend income they collect. But there's a workaround: A tax treaty allows U.S. investors to avoid Canadian taxes if the shares are owned in a tax-advantaged account, such as a Roth IRA. The ability to take advantage of this depends on your broker, who has to fill out some forms to make it happen (call them and ask about this). However, my broker has done their homework, and I can happily avoid the Canadian tax issue. The only dividend negative that I can't avoid is that the dividends U.S. investors receive will vary along with interest rates. Enbridge checks almost all the boxes When I look down the list of positives with Enbridge, I am very happy to be a shareholder. Is it a perfect investment? Of course not. But no company is. The balance of positives to negatives, however, is so compelling that I almost had no choice but to buy the stock. And I plan to hold it forever now that I have.
