Hi, Tim Plaehn here.
Silver has become one of the best investments for both growth AND income.
I've just found one tiny fund that is now delivering up to 20% in annualized cash distributions….
And could deliver $1,170 every month for you.
However that's not all….
The share price has jumped 68% in just 5 months.
This is one of the rarest combinations I've seen in 20 years of analyzing investments.
Click here to see how this works.
But hurry: the next monthly payout hits soon.
To your income,

P.S. This isn't physical silver. It's a simple ETF that trades like any stock. Buy once, collect monthly income.
Expedia Stock Turns Volatile After Rally. Where Does It Go Next?
By Jennifer Ryan Woods. Posted: 3/20/2026.
Key Points
- Expedia shares more than doubled between April and January after a series of strong earnings reports, but the stock became volatile heading into its fourth-quarter results and fell further after the report as investors reacted to expectations for slower margin expansion.
- Analyst sentiment remains mixed, with the stock trading below its recent highs even as the average price target suggests roughly 17% upside.
- Expedia’s strong balance sheet, growing B2B business, and continued travel demand support the bullish case, but rising short interest, macroeconomic uncertainty, and concerns about margin growth suggest the stock could remain volatile even if the long-term outlook remains positive.
- Special Report: Elon's "Hidden" Company
Shares of online travel company Expedia Group (NASDAQ: EXPE) have hit some turbulence. After more than doubling over the past year as the company delivered several quarters of strong results, the stock soared to a 52-week high in January.
Soon after, however, shares began to pull back. The decline accelerated after the company released its fourth-quarter 2025 earnings on Feb. 12, and although the stock has regained some ground since then, trading remains volatile. That has left investors wondering whether the drop from its highs is a buying opportunity or a sign the rally has stalled.
Mixed Signals Leave Investors Uncertain
The biggest scam in the history of gold markets is unwinding (Ad)
There are 90 paper gold claims for every real ounce in COMEX vaults. Ninety promises, one ounce of metal. It's like musical chairs with 90 players and one chair. COMEX gold inventory dropped 25 percent last year alone as gold flows East to Shanghai, Mumbai, and Moscow. On March 31st, contract holders can demand delivery. When similar situations arose in the past, markets closed and rules changed. Paper holders got crushed while mining stock holders made fortunes. One stock sits at the center of this crisis.
Get the full story on this opportunity now.Investors are receiving mixed signals about where Expedia's stock could go next. On the positive side, analyst price targets point to meaningful upside from current levels, and valuation metrics suggest the stock may still be undervalued.
News that OpenAI abandoned plans to move directly into travel bookings also eased concerns about potential disruption to online travel agencies.
The company's fundamentals remain solid, with strong growth in its B2B and advertising businesses, which management expects to continue into 2026.
The balance sheet is also in good shape, with more than $5 billion in cash and manageable debt levels.
However, there are reasons for caution. Macroeconomic risks — such as geopolitical tensions, rising fuel costs, and soft consumer sentiment — could weigh on travel demand. Investors are also watching how quickly Expedia can deliver margin expansion in the year ahead.
Strong Earnings Fueled the 2025 Rally
Renewed enthusiasm for Expedia began after the company's better-than-expected second-quarter 2025 earnings, when the company returned to profitability amid robust bookings and advertising revenue. The consumer segment, which had been weak, began to stabilize.
Momentum accelerated after the third-quarter report. Wall Street welcomed another quarter that surpassed expectations, with continued growth across Expedia's business segments. Shares, which had already climbed about 68% between April and the Q3 results, rose more than 20% in the two days following the report, prompting a wave of analysts to raise their price targets. The rally continued through the end of 2025, with the stock gaining another 38% before reaching an all-time high of $303 on Jan. 9.
Profit Taking and Margin Concerns Trigger Pullback
After hitting its peak, momentum cooled. Some profit-taking followed the strong run, and the decline accelerated after Expedia released its fourth-quarter results, despite reporting double-digit growth in bookings and revenue and beating analyst expectations.
Expedia also issued optimistic guidance for 2026, but investors honed in on management's view that earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margin expansion would be more moderate than the prior year. That more cautious margin outlook sent shares down roughly 12% in the sessions after the release.
There is a case that the stock could resume an upward move. Analyst sentiment is mixed — with 22 Hold ratings and 13 Buy ratings — but the average 12-month price target is about $281, implying roughly 17% upside from recent prices near $240.
Valuation Suggests Expedia May Still Be Cheap
Even with shares up more than 45% over the past year, the stock may be undervalued compared to peers. Expedia's price-to-earnings growth (PEG) ratio is roughly 0.71, lower than several peers. Booking Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: BKNG) has a PEG of about 0.97, while Airbnb Inc. (NASDAQ: ABNB) stands near 1.55.
Expedia also trades at a lower price-to-sales (P/S) ratio — roughly 2.01 — compared with about 5.22 for Booking and 6.55 for Airbnb, and well below the broader internet commerce industry average, which is near 26. Its price-to-earnings ratio of about 24.5 is lower than Booking's 26.7 and Airbnb's 32.7, though slightly above the industry average of roughly 20.4.
Volatility Likely to Continue Despite Upside Potential
Valuation alone doesn't remove the risks. Macroeconomic uncertainty remains a key concern: geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, rising fuel costs, and weakening consumer sentiment could all dampen travel demand, especially among budget-conscious travelers.
Short interest has also been trending higher. About 7.4% of Expedia's float is currently sold short — the highest level since June 2021 — suggesting a growing number of investors are betting the stock could face further downside.
Overall, Expedia's outlook remains mixed.
The company continues to show solid fundamental growth, its valuation looks attractive, and analyst price targets suggest upside. At the same time, slower margin expansion, macroeconomic uncertainty, the stock's sharp run over the past year, and rising short interest could keep trading volatile in the near term. For investors willing to tolerate that volatility, the recent pullback may present an opportunity, but the path forward for Expedia stock is unlikely to be smooth.
Qualcomm Just Got a Street-Low Price Target—What's Spooking Analysts?
Submitted by Sam Quirke. Article Published: 3/20/2026.
Key Points
- Qualcomm shares have fallen sharply in recent months, with the stock now down roughly 30% since the start of the year and trading near multi-year lows.
- A fresh downgrade, accompanied by a street-low price target, has added to the pressure, highlighting growing concerns about the company’s growth prospects.
- However, with valuation now compressed and a share buyback program being ramped up, there’s a growing argument that the market may be overreacting to near-term risks.
- Special Report: Elon's "Hidden" Company
After a strong finish to 2025, Qualcomm Inc (NASDAQ: QCOM) has been on the back foot so far in 2026. Since early January the stock has been sold aggressively, with shares now hovering around $130, near levels last seen during last year's wider tech pullback.
The immediate catalyst for that weakness was a downgrade that included a street-low price target. While a single analyst call rarely determines a stock's trajectory, this one resonated because it echoes concerns investors have been grappling with for months—and it comes after the stock already slid more than 20% in 2025.
The biggest scam in the history of gold markets is unwinding (Ad)
There are 90 paper gold claims for every real ounce in COMEX vaults. Ninety promises, one ounce of metal. It's like musical chairs with 90 players and one chair. COMEX gold inventory dropped 25 percent last year alone as gold flows East to Shanghai, Mumbai, and Moscow. On March 31st, contract holders can demand delivery. When similar situations arose in the past, markets closed and rules changed. Paper holders got crushed while mining stock holders made fortunes. One stock sits at the center of this crisis.
Get the full story on this opportunity now.Here's a closer look at what's behind the ultra-bearish update, and whether there's room for redemption over the coming months.
What’s Spooking Investors
To set the scene, the team at Seaport Research Partners was behind the recent downgrade, moving Qualcomm to a Sell rating and assigning a $100 price target. In a note to clients, Seaport highlighted Qualcomm's core smartphone business as its primary concern.
Despite efforts to diversify, the company remains heavily tied to global handset demand, and that market is showing signs of fatigue after years of strong growth.
A mix of rising device costs, longer upgrade cycles and a more cautious consumer backdrop has softened expectations for smartphone volumes, which pressures Qualcomm's revenue and profitability.
Supply constraints in key components such as memory are also adding cost pressure across the ecosystem and making it harder for manufacturers to stimulate demand.
For Qualcomm, this creates a difficult dynamic—and that's before the broader structural pressures are considered.
Competition, for example, is intensifying across multiple segments, with many device makers investing more heavily in their own silicon capabilities.
At the same time, Qualcomm is pushing into more capital‑intensive areas such as automotive and artificial intelligence which, while promising over the long term, are likely to weigh on margins in the near term.
Why the Market Might Be Too Negative
Despite those concerns, there is a strong case that the market's reaction is overdone. The first and most obvious factor is valuation. With the stock trading around $130, Qualcomm's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 26 compares favorably with Advanced Micro Devices Inc.'s (NASDAQ: AMD) P/E of about 76. That gap suggests a significant amount of pessimism is already priced in.
Operationally, Qualcomm has remained resilient on headline metrics. The company has continued to deliver quarterly earnings and revenue that beat analyst expectations, indicating the underlying business is sturdier than the share price implies.
Management's actions reinforce that view. This week, Qualcomm announced a new $20 billion share buyback and a 3.4% dividend increase, signaling that leadership believes the stock is undervalued and confident in future cash generation.
Importantly, the risks investors worry about are not new. Concerns around rising competition and tightening margins have been part of the Qualcomm narrative for several quarters; the stock's recent repricing means much of that uncertainty is likely baked into the current share price.
The Opportunity Going Forward
That said, the downgrade and the street-low $100 target were not welcome news, and they may have forced a reevaluation of risks some investors had been downplaying. Slowing smartphone demand and rising competition are real headwinds that help explain the stock's slide.
However, with shares down roughly 30% since January and trading at a compressed valuation, there is an argument that those risks may now be close to fully priced in. Whether Seaport's $100 price target is realistic remains an open question. A drop to that level would require a roughly 23% decline from current prices, sending the stock below the lows reached during last year's sell-off. While that outcome is possible, it seems less likely if the broader market stays risk-on.
If Qualcomm can keep executing—showing its core business remains resilient while its newer growth areas gain traction—it has a pathway to regain growth-story status rather than being viewed as one of the past.
