    GameStop
    stock jumped more than 7% on Monday, following a pair of analyst upgrades for the videogame retailer ahead ofnew gaming console releaseslater this year and next.

    Telsey Advisory Group’s Joseph Feldman raised his rating on GameStop to Outperform from Market Perform, and added $1 to his price target on the stock, to $10. Recent conversations with management boosted his confidence in the stock ahead of new gaming hardware releases.

    “The company enhanced operations in anticipation of the new cycle, including cutting expenses, reducing inventory, and investing in omnichannel, which should allow it to maximize the sales of new consoles, accessories, and software titles,” he writes. He notes that the company plans to offer leasing and trade-in options to entice gamers to purchase new consoles, which could help sales despite an uncertain economic backdrop.

    Yet Feldman think there is more than just the coming cycle to recommend GameStop. He likes that the company is right-sizing its store base, investing in its digital capabilities, and adding new business lines, like PC accessories.

  7. You know what-- I really like LLNW-- It's cheap // I'm not sure if I still own it in my managed acount by I like it in any account. Keep and ear out for AMZN--- when they announce live TV this is good for LLNW.

    I have had good fortune before buying small companies that AMZN works with Kornit Digital being a big home run....

    Amazon live TV would further differentiate Prime Video, says Raymond James 06/24 AMZN, AKAM, LLNW Raymond James analyst Aaron Kessler weighed in on rumors that Amazon (AMZN) is looking to add 24/7 live TV programming to its Prime Video OTT service, saying he believes adding the programming will help to further differentiate Amazon Prime Video as well as Twitch from other on-demand streaming services. Kessler says that by adding live programming to its Prime Video service, Amazon will likely be adding a material amount of incremental traffic and spending with its content delivery vendors including Akamai (AKAM) and Limelight (LLNW), and thinks this is especially meaningful for Limelight, which stands to gain the most as a percent of revenue given that Amazon Prime Video made up 30% of its 2019 revenues<--------
