Jefferies Upgrades Etsy to Hold, Raises Price Target to $55

Ahead of the fourth-quarter reporting season, Goldman Sachs&#8217; Eric Sheridan sized up <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/e-commerce">the e-commerce industry</a>.
In an analyst note published on Wednesday, Sheridan issued ratings for the following companies:
<ul>
<li>Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) with a Buy rating and a price target of $240.</li>
<li>eBay Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EBAY#NASDAQ">EBAY</a>) with a Sell rating, raising its price target from $53 to $55.</li>
<li>Chewy Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHWY#NYSE">CHWY</a>) with a Buy rating and a price target of $40.</li>
<li>Etsy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETSY#NASDAQ">ETSY</a>) with a Sell rating, lowering its price target from $47 to $45.</li>
<li>Wayfair Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/W#NYSE">W</a>) with a Neutral rating and a price target of $50.</li>
</ul>
Main Takeaways: Sheridan found the fourth quarter showed stable performance, boosted by stronger-than-expected holiday online sales. Non-discretionary and subscription-based purchases drove growth, especially among higher-income households.
The analyst is bullish on Amazon and Chewy for their customer loyalty, and in Amazon&#8217;s case, its subscription. Sheridan noted that consumers &#8220;traded down&#8221; on price to close the year.
Goldman Sachs&#8217; Buy ratings on Amazon and Chewy reflects &#8220;continued preference&#8221; for e-commerce companies that are exposed to less discretionary categories with high repeat behavior through subscriptions and/or essentials purchasing, Sheridan says. Online spending &#8220;remains volatile across discretionary categories and lower-income households.&#8221;
Chewy and Etsy have fewer repeat purchases and are driven by &#8220;enthusiast&#8221; buyers, he adds.
Sheridan also believes company margins will disperse in 2025, with Amazon and Chewy as beneficiaries and eBay and Etsy on the losing end.
Sheridan expects to see &#8220;a divergence in margin trajectories&#8221; between:
<ul>
<li>Companies that can balance stronger demand with targeted growth investments and produce attractive incremental margins with revenue outpacing expenses (Amazon, Chewy) and</li>
<li>A potentially more challenging margin outlook for the companies where we expect revenue to remain pressured (eBay, Etsy, Wayfair) &#8220;absent any additional cost reduction measures.&#8221;</li>
</ul>
Sheridan anticipates online retail companies will maintain their commitment to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/buybacks">share buybacks in 2025</a>.

10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

MoffettNathanson analyst Michael Morton maintains Etsy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETSY#NASDAQ">ETSY</a>) with a Neutral and raises the price target from $60 to $61.

MoffettNathanson Maintains Neutral on Etsy, Raises Price Target to $61

In the current market session, Etsy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETSY#NASDAQ">ETSY</a>) share price is at $50.02, after a 1.07% decrease. Over the past month, the stock went up by 2.49%, but over the past year, it actually fell by 29.27%. With good short-term performance like this, and questionable long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1732025707_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Etsy P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Etsy has a better P/E ratio of 25.8 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 21.89 of the Broadline Retail industry. Ideally, one might believe that Etsy Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1732025707_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

Etsy's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETSY#NYSE">ETSY</a>) short percent of float has risen 5.37% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 17.69 million shares sold short, which is 18.04% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 4.64 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Etsy Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1731936611_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Etsy has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Etsy's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Etsy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.16%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

(ETSY) - Analyzing Etsy's Short Interest

An endorsement of Donald Trump by Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk angered some existing owners of vehicles made by the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41501607/tesla-q3-earnings-highlights-eps-beat-revenue-miss-shares-climb-on-2025-timeline-for-lower-cost-evs">electric vehicle company</a>.
People who are embarrassed to be driving Tesla vehicles after the 2024 election are buying bumper stickers to show their anger of the Trump endorsement.
What Happened: Tesla owners may <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39804113/exclusive-elon-musk-is-burning-his-own-blue-bridges-by-donating-to-trump-says-market-expert">disagree with Musk</a> many times throughout the year, whether it's his posts on X, views on cryptocurrency or his recent increased political campaigning and funding.
The endorsement of Trump in the 2024 election may have been the final straw for some Tesla owners. While some Tesla owners may decide to sell their vehicle in protest and get a different vehicle, some are likely to keep the vehicle due to Tesla's advanced technology.
Those who love their Tesla vehicles, but are mad at Musk have turned to a solution of plastering anti-Elon Musk bumper stickers on their vehicle.
Matthew Hiller of Hawaii has a sticker business <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/MadPufferStickers">called </a>Mad Puffer Stickers on Etsy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETSY#NASDAQ">ETSY</a>) that has been among the places where Tesla owners are turning after the election.
Hiller shared with <a href="https://heatmap.news/electric-vehicles/anti-elon-bumper-sticker-tesla">Heatmap </a>that the sticker business is his side hustle to a full-time job at an aquarium. As a fan of making fish stickers and other designs, Hiller used his personal experience of wanting to buy a Tesla in early 2023, but not agreeing with everything Musk stood for.
"When he bought Twitter, he started extreme censoring of information, taking verification marks off The New York Times and things like that to sow discontent, disinformation, and push his agenda. And it was ugly," Hiller said.
Hiller realized that there were likely many people who were now embarrassed to be driving their Teslas around.
"So I made the fist sticker, which said, ‘I bought this before we knew Elon was crazy.'"
Hiller printed up a small run and after a slow initial time to see some sales, the stickers went viral a couple of times. Eventually Hiller was selling five to seven stickers a day and some days he would sell 50 because of a picture going viral.
"And now, at this point, it's gone insane."
Hiller told Heatmap his sales have been "unbelievable" since the 2024 election.
After the election, Hiller said he sold between 250 and 300 in one day and said the sales have "been steady ever since."
"I can barely keep up."

The sticker entrepreneur said he can barely keep up with the momentum and comes home from the aquarium to start packing stickers until night.
Hiller estimates that he's sold around 10,000 stickers since he started on Etsy and he is currently selling around 180 total stickers per day, a total that doesn't just include anti-Elon Musk stickers.
The most popular sticker sold by Hiller is the "I bought this before we knew Elon was crazy," which he said is by far the top seller. &nbsp;
Along with being a popular seller on Etsy, the anti-Musk bumper stickers are also among the top sellers on <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Tesla-Bumper-Sticker-Bought-Accessories/dp/B0C4KHKN4S/ref=zg_bs_g_268880011_d_sccl_3/142-4678181-8008934?psc=1">Amazon </a>with Hiller's most popular design ranked among the top five bumper stickers on the e-commerce site, sometimes hitting number one in the category.
"That's insane. People hate Elon more than they love Trump or Kamala?" Hiller added.
