D-Wave Quantum, Costco, AMD, Roku, And Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Roku inc.

What To Know: This milestone highlights Roku's position as the leading TV operating system in the U.S., Canada and Mexico and its expansion into nearly half of all U.S. broadband households. CEO Anthony Wood credited the platform's ease of use and viewer-focused features for driving growth. 
&#8220;Roku&#8217;s extensive scale sets us apart in the streaming industry, with more engagement than any other TV OS platform in the U.S.,&#8221;&nbsp;said Wood.
The company also highlighted its expanding content library, including over 500 free live linear channels and a strong advertising platform, which are central to its strategy. The achievement builds on a decade of growth for Roku's TV program and 15 years since the launch of its first streaming device, solidifying its position in the streaming market.
ROKU Price Action: Roku shares closed Wednesday up 6.42% at $83, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New On The Block</h2>
Intevac, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVAC#NASDAQ">IVAC</a>), which manufactures technologies for applications like solar cells and hard disk drives, has undergone a makeover. With its old restructuring woes in the rearview mirror, the company&#8217;s forecasted EBITDA is looking a lot healthier — basically, it&#8217;s flexing its financial muscles. Now, investment bank Houlihan Lokey is putting out feelers to see what kind of strategic alternatives are out there, which basically means they're chatting with anyone who might want <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mergers-and-acquisitions">to ink a deal</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Updates From The Block</h2>
Hershey Trust Co., holding a hefty 80% of the voting power at The Hershey Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HSY#NYSE">HSY</a>), recently told Mondelez International, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MDLZ#NASDAQ">MDLZ</a>) to try again after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42398159/whats-going-on-with-hershey-stock-monday">rejecting their preliminary bid</a>, calling it &#8220;too low,&#8221; according to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-11/hershey-s-main-owner-said-to-reject-mondelez-s-offer-as-too-low?sref=TBDibEcD&amp;embedded-checkout=true">Bloomberg</a>. Meanwhile, Mondelez is wrestling with skyrocketing cocoa and coffee prices, possibly using that stress as fuel for their merger plans. Cocoa prices have gone through the roof—up over three times in the past year, and there was a 20% leap between October and November alone. Blame it on bad weather in cocoa-growing regions, shrinking global inventories, and the usual supply chain drama. Even BofA Securities analyst Peter T. Galbo jumped in, noting that Hershey looks like a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42483141/hershey-merger-talks-fail">pretty tasty merger target</a> amid all the cocoa chaos​.
Nippon Life Insurance wants to acquire all the shares it doesn&#8217;t already own in Resolution Life Group Holdings. The all-cash deal of $8.2 billion is the largest overseas acquisition ever by a Japanese insurer. It&#8217;s also only the second major deal Nippon Life has announced this year. It's clear that Japanese insurers, like Nippon Life, are on the lookout for opportunities abroad.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Off The Block</h2>
Dow agreed to sell a 40% stake in its U.S. Gulf Coast infrastructure assets to a fund managed by Macquarie Asset Management for $2.4 billion. The new partnership, cheekily named Diamond Infrastructure Solutions, will act as a go-to provider of top-tier infrastructure services for Dow and other industrial clients in Texas and Louisiana.
Novolex, the packaging giant backed by Apollo Global Management, has sealed the deal to acquire Pactiv Evergreen. The price hovers around <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42395976/pactiv-evergreen-realreal-kodiak-sciences-and-other-big-stocks-moving-higher-on-monday">$3.22 billion</a>. The Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/apollo-backed-novolex-to-buy-pactiv-evergreen-for-3-22-billion-0e4815cf">reported</a> that the price tag equates to about $18 per share in cash, which is a sweet 23% premium over the stock's closing price of $14.66 on Dec. 6. It's also about 32% above where Pactiv's stock was trading on Dec. 2, right before rumors started flying about Apollo sniffing around for a takeover. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bankruptcy Block</h2>
The Onion's owners are upset with a bankruptcy judge for nixing their winning bid to buy Alex Jones&#8216; Infowars company. A federal bankruptcy judge declared <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/24/11/41982446/jokes-on-jones-onion-backed-by-families-of-sandy-hook-victims-buys-info-wars">last month's auction</a> and The Onion's offer "flawed," citing issues like a lack of transparency and an uneven playing field, as well as the failure to maximize value for Jones' creditors. This decision came after Elon Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42229130/elon-musks-x-objects-to-sale-of-conspiracy-theorist-alex-joness-infowars-accounts-to-the-onion-claims-ownership-over-joness-social-media">stirred the pot</a>. Jones vowed that even if Infowars gets shut down, he'll simply move his operations to his backup studios and keep broadcasting via satellites, stations, and of course, Musk&#8217;s X platform. Despite all the drama, the ruling was a rare victory for Jones, who's been battling legal claims from the families of victims from the Sandy Hook tragedy, which he defamed by calling it a hoax.

Fitch Ratings <a href="https://www.fitchratings.com/research/corporate-finance/us-corporate-m-a-could-accelerate-in-2025-credit-implications-mixed-02-12-2024">identified</a> several sectors with ample dry powder and legroom for acquisitions. They include construction, aerospace, gaming and leisure, healthcare, banking, and tech.

These are primarily mid-size firms with market caps between $5 and $12 billion.
<ul>
<li>Dutch Bros Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BROS#NYSE">BROS</a>): This takeover target boasts expanding profits, minimal debt load, strong brand recognition, and potentially untapped markets in the coffee-crazed northeastern U.S.</li>

<li>Roku Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>): ROKU's market cap is just under $12 billion, which is couch cushion cash for companies like Disney, Netflix, or Apple that could benefit from adding a hardware supplier</li>

Deal Dispatch: Hershey Wants More From Mondelez, Houlihan Shops Intevac, Onion And Infowars Saga Continues

Merger and acquisitions activity peaked in the United States in 2021, but after SPACs got shellacked and the Biden administration took a harsher view of large-scale mergers, deals became fewer and further between.
This trend is expected to reverse in 2025 as the Federal Reserve lowers interest rates and a more M&amp;A-friendly Federal Trade Commission (FTC) enters the fold. Analysts at Goldman Sachs expect many <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/goldman-sachs-sees-more-larger-162800585.html">larger-scale deals</a> to be explored in the next 12 months, and one may already be underway as Mondelez International (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MLDZ#NASDAQ">MLDZ</a>) is again considering purchasing chocolate conglomerate Hershey Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HSY#NYSE">HSY</a>).
Today, we'll explore five more stocks that could be M&amp;A targets in 2025.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How We Made Our Picks</h2>
Fitch Ratings has identified <a href="https://www.fitchratings.com/research/corporate-finance/us-corporate-m-a-could-accelerate-in-2025-credit-implications-mixed-02-12-2024">several sectors</a> with ample dry powder and legroom for acquisitions, such as homebuilding and construction, aerospace, gaming and leisure, healthcare, banking, and (of course) tech. We looked for companies in these industries and narrowed down our selections based on growth potential, brand recognition, financial position, and number of potential suitors. These are primarily mid-size firms with market caps between $5 and $12 billion.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Dutch Bros Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BROS#NYSE">BROS</a>)</h3>
If you're annoyed waiting in long lines at Starbucks or Dunkin&#8217; for your morning coffee, you aren't alone. Even with mobile orders and online promos, drive-thru lines are a constant pressure point for big chains, and as coffee prices continue to rise, customers might consider eschewing the line altogether.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="304" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/Bros-1024x304.png" alt="" class="wp-image-690339" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/Bros-1024x304.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/Bros-300x89.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/Bros-768x228.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163047/Bros.png 1302w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Artisan coffee chains like Dutch Bros might be a way for bigger companies to gain a competitive edge without sacrificing quality. BROS is a fast-growing coffee chain with over 900 stores in the United States, mainly in the Western part of the country, that prides itself on quick drive-thru experiences and attentive service. While 900 stores might seem quaint to giants like Starbucks, this is impressive growth from the 135 stores in operation in 2009, and the company also sells its name-brand varieties online. Dutch Bros revenue growth has continued its steady ascent, and gross profits have more than doubled since 2020. BROS is a takeover target thanks to these expanding profits, minimal debt load, strong brand recognition, and potentially untapped markets in the coffee-crazed northeastern United States.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBA#NASDAQ">WBA</a>)</h3>
Walgreens has long been a takeover target, but realistic dealmaking scenarios have failed to materialize, and the stock has been stuck in a multi-year decline. While a public acquisition has eluded WBA, 2025 could be the year the company returns to private markets.

On December 10, news broke that Sycamore Partners was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42421855/walgreens-stock-jumps-on-report-of-potential-private-equity-sale-what-you-need-to-know">exploring an acquisition</a> of Walgreens, who intend to take the company private and potentially split up its divisions. WBA stock has plummeted from a $100 billion market cap in 2015 to just $8.5 billion at the end of 2024, making a private market acquisition much more feasible.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Roku Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>)</h3>
Roku's stock chart will forever be distorted by the COVID-19 pandemic and meme stock craze, which saw its price jump from $100 to $500 in less than a year. When rates began rising in early 2022, ROKU was decimated and has traded under $100 per share for the better part of the last two years. But Netflix and Disney+ have shown that streaming services are the new way Americans watch TV, and Roku provides hardware and software to bring these services into living rooms.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="299" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ROKU-1024x299.png" alt="" class="wp-image-690341" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ROKU-1024x299.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ROKU-300x88.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ROKU-768x224.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ROKU.png 1300w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
ROKU made a record $1.5 billion in gross profits in 2023 thanks to more customers ditching cable for streaming services requiring Roku's products, such as smart TVs, streaming sticks, and the all-new Roku Ultra, the company's fastest and highest-quality device. ROKU's market cap is just under $12 billion, which is couch cushion cash for companies like Disney, Netflix, or Apple that could benefit from adding a hardware supplier that can entice potential customers to sign up for their services (and steer them from the competition).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Zoom Video Communications Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZM#NASDAQ">ZM</a>)</h3>
Another company with a rollercoaster stock chart is Zoom, the video conferencing service that kept people connected during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Zoom found itself in the right place at the right time, and its stock exploded from $76 in January 2020 to nearly $500 by the start of November. But by August 2022, the stock had given up all its COVID gains and settled back under $100.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="300" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ZM-1024x300.png" alt="" class="wp-image-690342" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ZM-1024x300.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ZM-300x88.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ZM-768x225.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163048/ZM.png 1302w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
ZM shares have traded under the $100 mark for most of the last two years, but the previous three months have shown the stock shaking off the cobwebs. In October, ZM's 50-day moving average made a bullish cross over the 200-day MA, and there's optimism that Zoom's infrastructure, brand recognition, and return to positive sales growth will make it a desirable acquisition in 2025. With a $26 billion market cap, Zoom needs a buyer with deep pockets like Google, Microsoft, or Apple, but the company has plenty of positive free cash flow and a sturdy balance sheet.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">SPDR Regional Banking ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>)</h3>
Now, no one is actually looking to acquire a banking ETF. However, the small and mid-size bank sector is ripe for consolidation, and the performance of this index shows how much optimism has flooded the industry since Donald Trump's election night victory. In 2023, the number of FDIC-insured commercial banks <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/184536/number-of-fdic-insured-us-commercial-bank-institutions/">grew to 4,470</a>, the first expansion in more than two decades (over 8,000 banks were insured in 2000). Many market analysts believe this to be a one-time blip and expect consolidation to resume under new FTC leadership.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="300" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163103/KRE-1024x300.png" alt="" class="wp-image-690343" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163103/KRE-1024x300.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163103/KRE-300x88.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163103/KRE-768x225.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/12163103/KRE.png 1302w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
The S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF got a massive boost on the Wednesday following the presidential election as a deregulation agenda paves the way for bank mergers and acquisitions. KRE is a relatively small fund with only $5.7 billion in assets under management, but it holds a diverse range of regional banking stocks. Over 140 banks and financial services firms fill the index, ranging from large caps like Truist Financial ($60 billion market cap) to niche local banks like Atlantic Union Bancshares (under $4 billion market cap). Selecting which of the more than 4,000 banks will be acquired is a monumental task; buying this small ETF is a way to take advantage of the overall M&amp;A trend.

5 Merger and Acquisition Targets to Buy Before Trump Takes Over

<a href="https://newsroom.roku.com/news/2024/12/roku-and-freewheel-announce-new-programmatic-partnership/kljd62ru-1733947466" title="https://newsroom.roku.com/news/2024/12/roku-and-freewheel-announce-new-programmatic-partnership/kljd62ru-1733947466">https://newsroom.roku.com/news/2024/12/roku-and-freewheel-announce-new-programmatic-partnership/kljd62ru-1733947466</a>

' Roku And FreeWheel Announce New Programmatic Partnership' - Roku

Shares of Trade Desk Inc are up roughly 4% to $134.13 in the month of December. The stock has seen volatility this month amid reports of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42278221/trade-desk-shares-are-on-the-rise-today-what-you-need-to-know">potential merger</a> with streaming giant Roku Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>).
The speculation arises as Trade Desk expands in the connected TV (CTV) market with the launch of its Ventura OS on November 20.
What To Know: Analysts at Guggenheim Securities recently highlighted the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42278221/trade-desk-shares-are-on-the-rise-today-what-you-need-to-know">strategic appeal</a> of combining Trade Desk's demand-side advertising platform with Roku&#8217;s global streaming footprint across 85 million households, enhancing their competitive position in the CTV space.
The merger could strengthen Trade Desk&#8217;s Ventura OS ambitions while boosting Roku&#8217;s advertising monetization, potentially making the combined entity a formidable rival to Alphabet Inc and Amazon.com Inc.
However, challenges remain. Roku&#8217;s CEO Anthony Wood, who holds significant voting shares, must approve any deal. Analysts warned of potential conflicts for Trade Desk in treating advertising clients fairly.
While no official talks have been confirmed, the news highlights overlapping goals as TTD competes against giants like Amazon and Alphabet.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is TTD A Good Stock To Buy?</h2>
When deciding whether to buy a stock, there are some key fundamentals investors may want to consider. One of these factors is revenue growth. Buying a stock is essentially a bet that the business will continue to grow and generate profits in the future.
Trade Desk has reported average annual revenue growth of 33.75% over the past 5 years. Looking forward, the company most recently said it expects FY24 revenues of $2.37B.
It's also important to pay attention to valuation when deciding whether to buy a stock. Trade Desk has a forward P/E ratio of 99.01. This means investors are paying $99.01 for each dollar of expected earnings in the future. The average forward P/E ratio of Trade Desk's peers is 25.13.
Other important metrics to look at include a company's profitability, balance sheet, performance relative to a benchmark index and valuation compared to peers. For in-depth analysis tools and important financial data, check out <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga PRO</a>.
TTD has a 52-week high of $141.53 and a 52-week low of $61.48.

MARA Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>): The price of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42336184/exclusive-bitcoin-crossing-100000-is-a-defining-moment-experts-say">soaring past $100,000</a> and company updates helped MARA Holdings see strong interest from readers during the week. The company<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42267974/whats-going-on-with-bitcoin-mining-stock-mara-holdings-monday"> recently shared </a>it mined 907 Bitcoin in November, up 26% month-over-month. In 2024, the company has mined 8,563 Bitcoin.
"November was a record-breaking month for MARA, with our mining operations achieving unprecedented levels of production driven by the successful deployment of additional miners and enhanced operational efficiency," MARA CEO Fred Thiel said.
The company also<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42265676/mara-targets-btc-and-debt-buybacks-with-new-700m-convertible-notes-offering-mstrs-michael-saylor-says-it-is-a-company-on-the-bitcoin-standard"> announced plans </a>to offer $700 million of 0% convertible senior notes that it will use to buy existing convertible notes and acquire additional Bitcoin. The convertible note strategy to buy additional Bitcoin is similar to what MicroStrategy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) has been doing.
MicroStrategy Chairman Michael Saylor said MARA is a "company on the Bitcoin Standard."
As of Nov. 30, MARA held 34,959 Bitcoin, making it one of the largest holders among public companies.

The Trade Desk (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTD#NASDAQ">TTD</a>): Merger speculation with Roku Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>) saw Trade Desk shares<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42342085/why-trade-desk-ttd-stock-is-up-8-this-week"> jump on the week </a>and gain interest from Benzinga readers. 
Guggenheim analysts laid out the case for a merger between the two companies that would combine Trade Desk's advertising platform with Roku's streaming footprint and make a juggernaut in the connected television space. Guggenheim analysts said the benefits of the merger would outweigh any risks and would make the combined company a better competitor against the likes of Amazon and Alphabet.
Merger speculation comes less than a month after Trade Desk unveiled its Ventura <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42097269/the-trade-desk-launches-ventura-transforming-streaming-tv-advertising">streaming operating system</a>, which it plans to deploy in collaboration with smart TV manufacturers. Ventura is expected to roll out as early as 2025.
The Trade Desk recently saw <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TTD/analyst-ratings">several analyst notes,</a> including Scotiabank initiating coverage with a Sector Outperform rating and $133 price target. Macquarie maintained an Outperform rating and raised the price target from $133 to $150. Evercore ISI maintained an Outperform rating and raised the price target from $110 to $135.

SoundHound AI (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOUN#NASDAQ">SOUN</a>): The artificial intelligence-related company saw increased interest from readers during the week, which comes with shares up over 500% year-to-date in 2024. 
Shares traded higher after the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42348247/soundhound-ai-shares-were-on-the-rise-today-whats-going-on">announced the deployment</a> of its voice AI Smart Ordering system at additional restaurants. The company's AI-powered restaurant solutions are in use at more than 10,000 locations around the world, with the technology helping with phone, kiosk, drive-thru and headset ordering systems. The company also recently said its Amelia conversational AI agent has handled over 100,000 customer calls in 2024, helping with operational efficiency for customers.
SoundHound shares continue to trade higher in 2024 and are up over 60% on the week, which comes shortly after the company reported third-quarter financials in November. The company raised its full-year revenue outlook for both 2024 and 2025 and the stock will be closely monitored by investors going forward.

Oracle Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>): Another stock seeing strong interest from investors is Oracle, which comes ahead of the company's second-quarter financial results. 
Oracle will report second-quarter results Monday after market close. Analysts expect the company  to report earnings per share of $1.48, up from $1.34 in last year's second quarter. The company has beaten analyst estimates for earnings per share in eight straight quarters. Analysts expect the company to report quarterly revenue of $14.1 billion, up from $12.9 billion in last year's second quarter. 
While the company has a recent string of beats for earning per share, it has struggled beating revenue forecasts. The company has beaten analyst estimates for revenue in only four of the last 10 quarters.
Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42307179/salesforce-palantir-and-oracle-spearhead-an-ai-revolution-says-wedbushs-dan-ives-a-renaissance-of-growth">recently said </a>Oracle is set to benefit from the "AI revolution" in 2025. Analysts have been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ORCL/analyst-ratings">raising their price targets</a> on Oracle stock ahead of the quarterly financial results.

Benzinga's 'Stock Whisper' Index: 5 Stocks Investors Secretly Monitor But Don't Talk About Yet

Shares of Trade Desk Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTD#NASDAQ">TTD</a>) are up 8% to $139.51 this week following reports of a potential merger with streaming giant Roku Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>).
The speculation comes as Trade Desk accelerates its expansion into the connected TV (CTV) market with the recent launch of its Ventura OS, unveiled on November 20.
What To Know: Analysts at Guggenheim Securities highlighted the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42278221/trade-desk-shares-are-on-the-rise-today-what-you-need-to-know">strategic appeal of such a merger</a>. They noted that integrating Trade Desk&#8217;s demand-side advertising platform with Roku's global streaming footprint, spanning over 85 million households, could significantly enhance both companies' positions in the competitive CTV space.

The merger could bolster Trade Desk's ambitions for Ventura OS while improving Roku's ability to monetize its advertising inventory, potentially positioning the combined entity as a formidable rival to Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>).
However, challenges remain. Roku's CEO Anthony Wood, who controls a substantial voting share, would need to approve any deal. Analysts also cautioned that merging could raise conflicts of interest for Trade Desk, particularly regarding fair treatment of advertising clients.
While no official talks have been confirmed, the news underscores overlapping goals between the two companies, particularly in navigating competition from dominant players like Amazon and Alphabet.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy TTD Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Trade Desk &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so.
In the the case of Trade Desk, which is trading at $139.51 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 0.72 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, TTD has a 52-week high of $141.53 and a 52-week low of $61.48.

Why Trade Desk (TTD) Stock Is Up 8% This Week

Roku, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>) shares are trading higher Wednesday on analyst commentary from Needham &amp; Co., which maintained a &#8220;Buy&#8221; rating and reiterated a price target of $100. Here&#8217;s what <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ROKU/news">you need to know.</a>
What To Know: The analyst, Laura Martin, highlighted Roku as a potential acquisition target for several categories of buyers. Martin emphasized that Roku's unique data assets, installed base and pricing power make it a standout candidate in the connected TV (CTV) space. She noted that Roku, with TVs in 85 million homes as of third-quarter 2024, has a significantly larger installed base compared to Vizio's 19 million. Roku also benefits from its aggregated consumer viewing data, which has not yet been separately monetized.
Martin further pointed to Roku's pricing leverage, derived from its position as the operator of the Roku Channel, which retains 50% of ad revenues generated from third-party content. This, she said, underscores the company&#8217;s negotiating power in ad sales. Additionally, Roku's recent entry into branded TV manufacturing has gained traction, particularly after Walmart's acquisition of Vizio.
Martin stated that Roku remains the only scaled CTV platform available for acquisition, contrasting it with competitors like Amazon, Google and Samsung, whose platforms are not up for sale. She also argued that the platform's unique data and ecosystem integration position it as a valuable target for companies such as Netflix, The Trade Desk or large retail media networks like Amazon or Walmart.
The commentary comes amid broader industry shifts, including Walmart&#8217;s $2.3 billion acquisition of Vizio, finalized yesterday and Amazon's push into ad-supported Prime Video. Martin suggested that such developments could further elevate Roku's strategic importance in the market.
Roku's market cap currently stands at $10.99 billion, with a 52-week trading range of $48.33 to $108.84. 
ROKU Price Action: Roku shares were up 10.1% at $83.34 at the time of writing, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"> Benzinga Pro.</a>
