Update - June 23, 2023

C3.ai has fallen back to earth after the Investor Day meeting. The Deutsche Bank analyst call on the meeting suggests the company still isn't ready to produce actual numbers from the generative AI demand. 

  • C3.ai (NYSE:AI) shares fell more than 8% on Friday after investment firm Deutsche Bank reiterated its sell rating on the enterprise software company after it held its investor meeting.
  • Analyst Brad Zelnick said the event "left a lot to be desired" as there were
  • "While we appreciate the vast opportunity presented by AI, the event did nothing to ease our skepticism on the true differentiation of the company's platform, its traction with customers or its ability to hit its constantly evolving financial targets," Zelnick wrote in an investor note.

  • C3.ai, Inc. stock has slumped following its release of fiscal Q4 2023 earnings and rather muted guidance for Fiscal Year 2024.
  • The enterprise artificial intelligence software business continues to gain momentum with new deals, but the company only guided to FY2024 revenues in the $310 million range.
  • C3.ai, Inc. stock still trades above a prior FY2024 price target of $32 based on sales topping the current forecast.
C3.ai, Inc. (NYSE:AI) had recently provided strong preliminary FQ4'23 numbers, so the only remaining real focus of its fiscal Q4 results was the company's guidance for FQ1. The stock ran aggressively into the earnings report, and

Though oil continues plunging, the oil giants continue producing more. For Q4, Occidental Petroleum (OXY) had roughly flat production. The worst part is that OXY plans to grow production by 2% to 4% in 2016. The stock has held up somewhat strong, but the inability to turn off the spigot remains troubling.

  ChargePoint beat FQ2'22 revenue estimates, but the losses are mounting. The company guided up FY22 numbers partly due to acquisitions. The stock still trades at an estimated 21x FY23 number leaving limited upside for the stock and reinforcing why venture funds sold 13.8 million shares. Looking for a portfolio of ideas like this one?

Aurora Cannabis: Deal Or No Deal

By -
Aurora Cannabis was left out of the major deal making in 2018. The cannabis company updated FQ2 guidance to revenues of $50 to $55 million with a continued focus on pure production growth. The stock is down as the market is becoming less impressed with commodity farming operations due to the prime Oregon example. The stock is below key resistance at $5.40 as medical cannabis patient totals failed to impress. As the end of 2018 came and went,   Aurora Cannabis   ( ACB ) was a notable absentee from the deal making in the cannabis market. Just about all of the other major Canadian cannabis players got large investments or signed up powerful partnerships, but the related stocks didn't generally maintain rallies following the deals. Based on the early legalization data in Canada and Oregon, the best option for Aurora Cannabis might actually be selling production capacity while the Canadian market remains hot.
