Veteran fund manager sends urgent 9-word message on stocks
The stock market has had a rally for the ages since President Donald Trump backed off some tariffs in early April, clearing the way for trade negotiations with major trading partners. The S&P 500 marched over 25% higher since hitting a tariff-fueled low on April 8; however, cracks in the U.S. economy are forming even as President Trump's tariff pause has expired, unleashing a new wave of inflation-unfriendly import taxes. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Weakening employment data and arguably sticky inflation isn't a great recipe for stock market gains, and it doesn't help that August is historically a tricky month for markets. The dynamic has increased investor anxiety, causing a sharp and fast 3% dip late last week. The potential for additional losses has Doug Kass's attention. Kass is a veteran hedge fund manager with 50 years of experience, including a stint as research director for Leon Cooperman's Omega Advisors. On August 5, he sent a blunt message to investors that's likely to turn some heads. The stock market's gravity-defying gains have rewarded many investors who took advantage of stocks becoming deeply oversold this spring, including Kass. A self-described contrarian with a calculator, he correctly called the selloff overdone in early April before its big move higher.

"Non tech Q2 earnings were poor - as was forward guidance," wrote Kass on X. "The rate of growth in economy and corporate profits (ex AI) are rolling over. Market participants are worshipping at the altar of price momentum, speculating in meme stocks and riding the wave of large-cap tech equities." Just as Kass was bullish on stocks in April when everyone else was bearish, now he's turned bearish when everyone is seemingly bullish. According to Bank of America, "all major client groups bought equities last week, led by institutions," resulting in the first stock market inflows in six weeks. Fund manager buys and sells Veteran fund manager who forecast Nvidia stock rally reboots outlookStocks & Markets Podcast: Small Caps & Your Portfolio With Thomas BrowneLegendary fund manager reveals new trades after S&P 500 rally "Bull Markets Die Hard, so I don't anticipate a straight-down correction," wrote Kass in a pre-market post on TheStreet Pro on August 4. "Rather, I am expecting a jagged move lower in the weeks and months ahead. I will be reshorting strength. Friday was likely the first shot across the bow." And strength is what Kass got. After the 3% dip in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq caused by worrisome inflation and jobs data last week, the indexes rallied on August 4, adding 1.5% and 1.9%, respectively. Related: Fed official sends warning on 'two-speed' economy The bounce gave Kass the "reshorting" opportunity he mentioned. As a result, he delivered an urgent message, saying he is "back to my largest net short exposure since January." Kass is picking and choosing, and while net short, he still owns stocks, suggesting his shorting stocks is simply managing risk to control his downside if stocks do roll over. Among the stocks he's shorting are technology bellwethers he believes have run too fast, too far, and thus, might be due for a short-term retreat, including Nvidia, Palantir, and Tesla. "The investing world almost universally believes it has discovered a new god in artificial intelligence and machine learning," said Kass. "AI infrastructure CAPEX is already 20% higher as a % of GDP than what was spent on telecom and internet infrastructure at the peak of the dot com boom." Kass doesn't think that's sustainable, leading him to take "trading short rentals" on Nvidia (NVDA) and Palantir. Nvidia, the AI-chip Goliath, is up 70% in the past 12 months, including 57% in the past three months. The company's shares have recently moved higher on optimism over rising capital expenditure budgets at major hyperscalers, including Microsoft and Meta Platforms. Meanwhile, Palantir's (PLTR) shares have skyrocketed on optimism surrounding its AI software platform, gaining 128% in the past year, and 58% in the past three months, including a sharp post-earnings rally this week. He is also short Tesla, which has been mired in a sales slump since CEO Elon Musk supported President Trump's reelection bid and took a role in the administration earlier this year at the newly created Department of Government Efficiency. Musk has since stepped down from that role, but Tesla's sales haven't recovered yet. In Q2, Tesla's revenue fell 12% year over year to $22.5 billion. "Current valuations are a poor launching pad for future investment returns," said Kass. Todd Campbell is long Nvidia, Palantir, and Tesla shares.

Here's what Wall Street experts are saying about Uber ahead of earnings
Uber (UBER) is scheduled to report results for its second fiscal quarter before the market opens on Wednesday, August 6, with a conference call scheduled for 8:00 am ET. What to watch for: Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. EXPECTATIONS: During its last earnings conference call, Uber said that for Q2 2025, it anticipated Gross Bookings of $45.75B-$47.25B, representing growth of 16% to 20% year-over-year on a constant currency basis. Its outlook assumed a roughly 1.5 percentage point currency headwind to total reported year-over-year growth. Adjusted EBITDA of $2.02B-$2.12B, which represents 29% to 35% year-over-year growth. Current consensus EPS and revenue forecasts for Uber's Q2 stand at 62c and $12.47B, respectively, according to data from Yahoo Finance. BETTER THAN EXPECTED Q2: Last week, Stifel analyst Mark Kelley raised the firm's price target on Uber to $117 from $110 and kept a Buy rating on the shares. Heading into Q2 earnings season for the firm's e-commerce and consumer app coverage, the analyst notes that third-party data suggests a better Q2 than expected as the Trump administration has either struck more favorable deals or pushed out tariff implementation while waiting for deals. The firm says it was 'too conservative' in its models following 'liberation day' and raises some estimates among the group. POSITIVE TRENDS: Bernstein also raised the firm's price target on Outperform-rated Uber to $110 from $95. As the firm noted after the Q1 print, continued stability in Mobility and Delivery trends at Uber would be largely positive. Q2 data points are supportive, travel may have bottomed, and FX is less of a headwind looking forward. Considering the reinvestment mandate, Bernstein sees more upside to out-year estimates, as these efforts bolster GB growth. From here, upside likely lies more in Uber's ability to compound free cash flow than the multiple, though there remains a wide gap to DoorDash (DASH) – concrete data points around AV fragmentation are likely needed to drive multiple upside, the firm adds. Bernstein doesn't expect much to change on the AV front this quarter. Meanwhile, Roth Capital analyst Rohit Kulkarni raised the firm's price target on Uber to $110 from $93 and kept a Buy rating on the shares ahead of the Q2 report on August 6. The firm sees potential upside to Uber's Q2 bookings estimates but says buy-side expectations for Q3 guidance 'may cap' the stock's near-term opportunity. Roth remains a long-term holder of the stock and would be incremental buyers on weakness. The recent developments in robotaxis have benefited Uber's valuation multiple, the analyst tells investors in a research note. CONFIDENCE IN Q2 ESTIMATES: Keeping a Buy rating on the shares, Needham analyst Bernie McTernan raised the firm's price target on Uber to $109 from $100. According to the firm's mobility tracker, pricing is moving slightly higher q/q for Uber and Lyft (LYFT), and coupled with healthy demand data points, this gives the firm greater confidence in its Q2 estimates, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Tesla (TSLA) expanding their robotaxi footprint and Waymo potentially launching alone in Miami and DC could weigh on the multiple, but Uber's ability to compound bookings over the near term is less of a debate, the firm added. PARTNERSHIP: Last month, Lucid Group (LCID), Nuro and Uber announced a next-generation premium global robotaxi program created exclusively for the Uber ride-hailing platform. Expected to first launch later next year in a major U.S. city, the new robotaxi service combines the software-defined vehicle architecture of the Lucid Gravity, the scalability and capability of the Nuro Driver Level 4 autonomy system, and Uber's global network and fleet management. Uber aims to deploy 20,000 or more Lucid vehicles equipped with the Nuro Driver over six years. The vehicles will be owned and operated by Uber or its third-party fleet partners and made available to riders exclusively via the Uber platform. The first Lucid-Nuro robotaxi prototype is already operating autonomously on a closed circuit at Nuro's Las Vegas proving grounds. As part of a deepening relationship with each partner, Uber plans to make multi-hundred-million-dollar investments in both Nuro and Lucid.
