Bernstein Maintains a Market Perform Rating on Etsy (ETSY), Sets Price Target at $45
Bernstein SocGen Group maintained a Market Perform rating on Etsy, Inc. (NASDAQ:ETSY) with a price target of $45 on June 5. The analysts observed that growing investor confidence and potential short covering led Etsy shares to climb 32% since last month. A young woman shopping for a vintage fashion item online. Bernstein analysts noted that the upward momentum in Etsy, Inc. (NASDAQ:ETSY) stock is due to stronger alternative data indicating a slowdown in the annual decline of Gross Merchandise Sales in May. This data demonstrates an optimistic outlook for Etsy's growth, particularly compared to its prior lower trading multiples. The stock has gained significant ground, rising 16.15% over the last week and 16.37% so far this year. Although the main driver of this upward swing in the stock remains unclear, the analysts commented that lower traffic for Temu, an Etsy competitor, in May could be a catalyst. They also said that possible changes in products listed at Etsy could be behind this positive trajectory. The report pointed to stronger credit card spending in May and a rise in monthly app usage for Etsy, Inc. (NASDAQ:ETSY), which coincided with Temu witnessing a 43% drop in active users year-over-year. Although the analysts acknowledged that their data might not perfectly match Etsy's reported Gross Merchandise Sales, the overall signals suggest things are moving in a positive direction. Etsy, Inc. (NASDAQ:ETSY) runs global online marketplaces that bring together buyers and sellers through its main platform, Etsy, as well as Reverb for musical instruments and Depop for fashion resale. While we acknowledge the potential of ETSY as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

Here's why the Scottish Mortgage share price is back at 1,000p
The Scottish Mortgage Investment Trust (LSE: SMT) share price has risen to £10 again in recent days. This means it's up nearly 50% over the past two years, and 23% since early April. Here, I want to look at what might have fuelled the recent turnaround, and whether it could continue. Scottish Mortgage's focus on disruptive companies more often than not leads it to the tech-packed US stock market, particularly the Nasdaq. Around 61% of the FTSE 100 investment trust's portfolio is in US stocks. Therefore, a recovery in share prices across the pond has underpinned Scottish Mortgage's short-term performance. The Nasdaq is now 28% higher than its April trough. That said, there have also been some notable jumps in a few key holdings. Latin American e-commerce giant MercadoLibre hit an all-time high in early June, as did audio streaming platform Spotify. Indeed, Spotify stock is now up 805% since the start of 2023! While the trust has been selling some Nvidia shares recently, it's still a significant holding (around 2.3% of the portfolio). And the AI chip king has also been on a hot streak, surging 51% since the April sell-off. It should also be noted that the FTSE 100 itself is now just a whisker away from a 52-week high — and therefore a new record. One key theme that Scottish Mortgage has invested in heavily is the digitalisation of global finance. It has called this one of 'the world's most transformative trends'. Key holdings here include MercadoLibre and Nu Holdings (Nubank) in Latin America, Affirm and Stripe (unlisted) in the US, and Sea Limited and Ant Group (unlisted) in Asia. Sea is up 61% this year, while Affirm has rebounded 62% since early April. Somewhat rarely for the trust, it does have a couple of UK-based fintechs in the portfolio. These are money transfer app Wise and neobank Revolut, which is private. The Wise share price jumped close to a record high this week after the firm posted strong annual results. Wise also said it intends to transfer its primary listing to the US, which will allow it to work towards inclusion in major US indexes. Whether the trust keeps rising in the near term is largely dependant on what the US market does. We know Trump's tariffs are hurting the global economy, so this is a risk to American corporate earnings and the value of Scottish Mortgage's portfolio. Investors in the trust need to be prepared to ride out sometimes stomach-churning periods of volatility. On the flip side, the global IPO market is warming back up again (though not in London, unfortunately). Revolut is reportedly preparing for a public listing that could value the company at over $45bn, while Ant Group might list in Hong Kong later this year. These massive IPOs could help boost Scottish Mortgage's net asset value (NAV), assuming they're well-received by investors. It would also help relieve worries about the true value of its unlisted assets. Either way though, I still think Scottish Mortgage shares are worth considering. They're currently trading at an 10.8% discount to NAV, which I think is attractive given the long-term growth potential of the portfolio.
