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.

On rare occasions, our expert team of analysts issues a 'Double Down' stock recommendation for companies that they think are about to pop.

Prediction: This Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stock Will Be Worth $3 Trillion in 5 Years
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE: TSM) is one of the most important players in the global semiconductor industry, as it fabricates chips for many of the top fabless chipmakers and consumer electronics giants. The Taiwan-based powerhouse holds a dominant 67% share of the global third-party foundry market; second-place Samsung (which also produces its own chips in-house) has just 11% of the third-party foundry space. Moreover, TSMC's foundry market share has risen steadily from 58% a couple of years ago to where it is now. Looking ahead, the growing demand for artificial intelligence (AI) chips could provide tremendous upside for TSMC, sending its market cap well above its current level of just over $1 trillion. Indeed, I believe TSMC could triple its market cap in the next five years. AI chips could ensure years of solid growth for TSMC TSMC's advanced processing nodes are being used by numerous companies, including Nvidia, Broadcom, Marvell, AMD, and Apple, to fabricate AI-capable chips that go into data centers, personal computers, and smartphones. This puts TSMC firmly at the center of the trend of growing adoption of AI across multiple end markets. According to one estimate, the global AI chip market could clock annualized growth of 35% through 2033 as the technology filters through to more applications. TSMC itself is forecasting that its revenue from selling AI accelerators designed by the likes of Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom, and Marvell could register a compound annual growth rate in the mid-40% range over the next five years. Throw in the proliferation of AI in other technologies such as smartphones, PCs, vehicles, and the Internet of Things (IoT), and it becomes obvious that this chipmaker is on track for terrific and sustained growth. For instance, according to a forecast by research firm shipments of generative AI smartphones and PCs are expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 35% through 2029, and the deployment of AI in the automotive industry is expected to grow at a similar rate. Not surprisingly, TSMC is investing aggressively to upgrade its chip manufacturing and packaging capacity to make the most of the rising AI-driven demand in the semiconductor market. It is on track to invest a total of $165 billion in the U.S. alone to build advanced chip fabrication facilities, packaging plants, and a research and development center. In all, TSMC is going to build 24 new factories across the world. These capacity investments should also allow it to maintain its dominant stature in the foundry market. Why the stock has the potential to triple TSMC management pointed out last year that its total addressable market (TAM) under the Foundry 2.0 definition stood at $247.5 billion. It points out that Foundry 2.0 also includes packaging, testing and assembly, and other ancillary markets apart from chip manufacturing. Market research firm IDC estimates that the Foundry 2.0 market will clock 11% growth in 2025 -- nearly double its growth rate last year -- and reach $298 billion in revenue this year. TSMC's share of this market is expected to grow to 37% in 2025 -- a big jump over the 28% share it was sitting on a year ago. Looking ahead, IDC expects the Foundry 2.0 market to clock a 10% compound annual growth rate through 2029. That would bring the Foundry 2.0 market's annual revenue to $436 billion at the end of that period. TSMC could go on to capture a bigger share of this market in the next five years because of its aggressive capacity expansion, as well as the technological advantages it enjoys over rival foundries, which allow it to produce faster and more power-efficient chips for its customers. If we assume that TSMC could increase its Foundry 2.0 share to 60% after five years (which doesn't seem difficult considering the pace at which its market share is increasing), its annual revenue could hit $262 billion. That would be almost three times its 2024 revenue. The stock is trading at almost 11 times sales right now. If it's trading at a slightly higher sales multiple in five years, it would crack the $3 trillion market cap. And the market could easily decide to reward TSMC with a premium valuation considering that its sales look likely to increase at a faster pace over the next five years than they did over the previous five.

U.S. steel, aluminum tariffs impact Maritime construction, real estate industries
People in the Maritime construction and real estate sectors are starting to see the impact of United States President Donald Trump's tariffs on steel and aluminum. 'It's the counter tariffs that are really going to have an impact on Canadian builders and constructors so we are not 100 per cent sure what that's going to look like just yet, but it certainly will have an impact and it will be felt pretty quickly,' says Duncan Williams, Construction Association of Nova Scotia CEO. 'Unfortunately it's going to drive the cost up, we don't know by how much and we don't know how quickly.' Trump has placed a 50 per cent tariff on Canadian steel and aluminum products, and lumber isn't far behind. 'We are already seeing an impact in terms of slowing projects down, and also seeing some projects just simply shelved, it's definitely having an impact on what comes online. We're hoping it's short term and short pain,' says Williams. 'A lot of companies, where they have capacity, were stockpiling what they could and pre-ordering and trying to lock prices in but even that is very difficult.' Williams says the tariffs are impacting the construction sector in terms of costs, availability and production capacity. 'We are certainly seeing a lot more caution in terms of investment. We are seeing sharper estimating, budgeting and forecasting, especially now with the prices already being higher, this is just one more nail that we don't need,' adds Williams. Realtor Rion Powell says he's noticed his clients second guessing the market right now. 'A lot of noise, a lot of uncertainty and so for the people that are waiting on the sidelines to see how this all plays out, there is an opportunity right now to get a good quality home at a fair price,' says Powell. Powell feels sometimes the best time to jump into the market is when there is uncertainty. 'You think about COVID, which was so long ago but that was the talk about the real estate market, too,' says Powell. 'The market exploded here in Halifax and in the rest of Canada. Prices soared and everyone was kicking themselves saying, 'Jeez, I should have bought in 2021, 2022 in the midst of a global pandemic.' 'When there are less buyers in the marketplace, that means there is more opportunity for buyers. When there are more buyers in the marketplace, that means it's a better opportunity for sellers. This is really the beginning of what we are going to start to see. The impact on this over the next three to six months and I'm not sure how this is going to play out.'
