Benchmark indexes Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and the S&P 500 are poised to finish the week on a positive note. We have seen notable performances from four key stocks:
Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) +9.11%
Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) +8.09%
Walmart (NYSE:WMT) +3.60%
Tenaris (NYSE:TS) +7.75%
What’s Driving These Stocks?
Moderna’s Q4 earnings per share of $0.55 and revenue of $2.8 billion exceeded consensus estimates, attributed to reduced expenses and payment delays.
Nvidia reported record revenues of $22.10 billion, up 22% from the third quarter and 265% from a year earlier, beating expectations. Earnings per share were $5.16, up 28% from the previous quarter and 486% from a year earlier, surpassing consensus estimates.
Walmart exceeded analyst estimates with earnings per share of $1.80 and revenue of $173.4 billion for the quarter, along with a quarterly dividend increase of 9.2% to $0.6225 per share.
Tenaris saw 2023 revenues of $14.869 billion, a 26% increase from 2022, and net income rose to $3.958 billion, a 55% improvement over 2022. The board intends to propose a dividend payment of $0.60 per share at the upcoming shareholders’ meeting on April 30.
In this piece, we will analyze each stock using InvestingPro’s Fair Value. The Fair Value is determined for each stock based on various financial models tailored to the stocks’ specific metrics.
1. Moderna
For Moderna, InvestingPro’s Fair Value, which summarizes 12 investment models, stands at $105.98.
Fai Value

Analysts are strongly bullish on the stock, with a target price of $134.03 and consequently far from the average Fair Value.
While analysts and Fair Value disagree on the possibility of bullishness and target price, the low-risk profile is positive. It has good financial health, with a score of 3 out of 5.
Delving deeper into the stock with the market and competitors, the stock is currently undervalued.

Moderna is now worth more than 2.5x its revenues compared to the 3x sector average.
The Price/Earnings ratio at which the stock is trading is -9.6x against an industry average of -0.6 percent, which again stands to confirm its current undervaluation.
2. Nvidia
For Nvidia, InvestingPro’s Fair Value, which summarizes 13 investment models, stands at $638.68, which is 20.2% less than the current price.

While there’s a current disparity between analysts and Fair Value regarding the potential for a rise, the positive aspect lies in the low-risk profile. The stock exhibits excellent financial health, earning a score of 4 out of 5.
Upon closer examination, when compared to the market and competitors, there are indications that the stock might be potentially overvalued.

Analysts project a bullish target price for the stock at $193.44.
Despite a disparity in views between analysts and Fair Value regarding the likelihood of a rise, the positive aspect is the stock’s low-risk profile. The company demonstrates good financial health, scoring 3 out of 5.
A comparison with the market and competitors reinforces the notion that the stock may currently be overvalued.

We can see that Walmart is now worth 0.7x its sales compared to 0.9x in the industry, and the Price/Earnings ratio at which the stock is trading is 30.4X against an industry average of 11.8x, which stands to confirm its overvaluation.
4. Tenaris
For Tenaris, InvestingPro’s Fair Value, which summarizes 15 investment models, stands at $46.20, or +31.7% higher than the current price.

InvestingPro subscribers tracked analyst forecasts, which are optimistic about the stock, projecting a target price of $41.47.
The risk profile is also encouraging, with a strong financial health rating of 4 out of 5.
However, when comparing the stock to the market and competitors, we don’t find the expected confirmation. Currently, the stock has a potentially inflated valuation.

We can see that Tenaris is now worth 1.3x times its revenue compared to 1.1x in the industry, and the Price/Earnings ratio at which the stock is trading is 5.3X against an industry average of 4.2x, which stands to confirm its overvaluation.
Conclusion
In conclusion, analysts suggest that Moderna might rebound soon despite the Fair Value indicating that the prices are at a fair level with limited upside. The stock’s downtrend could potentially come to an end soon.
As for Nvidia and Walmart, although they boast a strong financial status and well-defined strengths, there’s a cautious outlook.
Nvidia has seen impressive gains of +278% over the past year, while Walmart has recorded +22%. These strong gains could lead to a correction sooner or later, even though investors currently have confidence in their bullish trends.
Regarding Tenaris, despite its solid financial status and bullish Fair Value, certain indicators suggest that it might be overvalued. Investors should keep this in mind while considering their investment options.
