AI Summary

Buy NowHigh

W has emerged from a corrective reset, displaying a clear sequence of higher highs and higher lows above rising EMAs. A shallow pullback into the 9- and 20-day EMAs, supported by contracting volume and absence of exhaustion, offers an attractive buying opportunity. We maintain a bullish medium-term bias while awaiting continuation through the EMAs.

Bull points

  • We essentially bought back roughly $300 million of face value of the 27th and 28th, which is roughly the equivalent of managing 4 million shares of dilution, demonstrating our commitment to managing potential dilution and improving our balance sheet.
  • we want to remain opportunistic about how we continue to manage these pieces on the 27th and 28th, as we aim for outright repurchasing of shares, and I think that's a goal of ours and a place that we're excited to keep making progress to get to.
  • Revenue for the first quarter grew by 7.4% year over year, with the U.S. up by 7.5% and our international segment up by 6%.

Bear points

  • Free cash flow was a negative $106 million in Q1,
