NU trade ideas
$NU will be 15+ before end of FY 2025- This bank has phenomenal growth, expanding TAM in latin america.
- Numbers speaks for themselves, It's poised for success for rising middle class consumers in latin america.
- Digital Banking will provide immense value in latin america where typical banks were the only way to do banking in the past.
NU straight up since add.NU is one of the fastest growing companies in South America. Look at the revenue growth in the earnings tabs. It showed strong support near the $10 area I felt it was oversold so I bought a lot of shares and synthetic longs. There is still a lot of upside to this one new highs will come but I expect a few pullbacks as we get there. I'll be shocked and hedged if we ever see $10 again.

LONG NU @ 12.53 - patience is a virtueThis one has been a little temperamental lately, and can take some time for the trade to work out when it is, but ultimately still has a perfect record (79-0) of coming through after a buy signal since it went public near the beginning of 2022. It has also been in an almost 2 year long uptrend and trading strong stocks improves my odds dramatically.
However, I'm always a bit more skeptical when I trade stocks with short trading histories, and 2 years is short for me, but in the end I just trust my numbers. And this one has pretty good ones.
Its average daily returns have been top quartile for me, returning an average of about .20% per day held. That's close to 4.5x the long term average daily return of the S&P and almost double the daily return of the of the market this year, which has been a VERY good one for the market.
Average hold has been about 3 weeks but that's skewed longer by a couple of long trades. The median trade length is 1 day, so having a 50/50 shot at this being a 1 day trade and the vast majority taking less than a week makes it worth the risk of tying up capital for longer.
Per my usual strategy, once I'm in I'll add at the close on any day it is still given a buy signal by my algorithm, and I will use FPC (first profitable close) to exit any lot on the day it closes at any profit.
As always - this is intended as "edutainment" and my perspective on what I am or would be doing, not a recommendation for you to buy or sell. Act accordingly and invest at your own risk. DYOR and only make investments that make good financial sense for you in your current situation.
Will Joey help NU push on, or will they need even more Friends?NYSE:NU has had a good run rising 50% last 12 months, however since releasing positive earnings a month ago the share is down 25%. Among reasons for this is that the AR per customer has dropped from all-time-high of $11.40 to $11 in the last two quarters. Also, they are struggling to attract high(er)-income customers, having their fair share of customers in the low-income bracket. In their key market Brazil, a whooping 56% of the adult population has a credit card from Nubank ( NYSE:NU ’s brand), accomplished in just 10 years. However expansion into other markets is proving difficult, and the company is facing headwinds in Mexico. The somewhat known investor Warren Buffet is an investor, and he recently sold 20% of his share in the company. This could just be rebalancing after a good run but is worth mentioning.
Technically the stock is not looking its best at the moment. After a steady growth pretty much since January 2023, we have now seen a steeper correction than usual (on the daily chart). Price has dropped from an ATH of $16.15 to currently $11.99. This meant price dropped below the support of the rising baseline and is now in consolidation. This consolidation can be viewed as a bearish rectangle, indicating a potential break to the downside of the rectangle. Should this happen, there is some support around $10.50 with next support at $8.50. Should price however break to the upside, the mentioned baseline will serve as resistance. The stock is approaching oversold levels on the RSI, and we have seen bounces in such situations before, however the drop before has been steeper this time.
Fundamentally I believe the company might have hit if not a wall, then some serious obstacles in expanding their business, both at home in Brazil and internationally. Key numbers are rising, and this might be a sign to the upside potential, if they can be maintained and reached. Technically it looks bad in my view. I believe price will break to the downside of the rectangle and have my eyes on $8.50. On the 4H chart we saw a brief break to the upside of the rectangle, but price very quickly retreated down.

Bot $12, load closer to $10 if/when
- is one of the three stonks in latam that i've commented in the past is worth keeping a v close eye on b/c of the growth rates and tremendous product. the others are NASDAQ:MELI and NASDAQ:DLO (the latter of which worked out nicely and we made a good exit earlier this year from the lows, but it took a minute).
- back to Nubank:
1/ brazil in earlier innings of economic funeral, but what's new this happens every so often and those battle tested growers tend to come out of these events eating massive share, Nu will be one of these
2/ timing is always the tricky thing. you want to take calculated risk, but unlike the US stonks, you have clear geo/ FX and therefore adverse flows risk to consider. invest in emerging mkts and you need to have a tolerance/ knowledge of currency risk, minimally. i'm not going to downplay that here, but only to flag this needs to be something you consider if/when considering a stake in $nu. the counter point is they're growing bananas outside of Brazil as well and likely take over pretty much over every other latam country similar to Meli. IMO, there's no competition for the growth engine they can export into latam.
3/ let's math and use two approaches... PE and ROE -> book value
a1. PE: let's imagine the 62c next year (in USD) is 50c - only a 15% growth. the reason you'd look at this is b/c most investors r going to be focused here, so you stand the chance of risk-evaluating what others see and making a call (similar to support and resistance vs. some esoteric TA you've developed). in this vein, what would you pay for a 15% EPS grower (ignoring all other factors of what this biz is and only considering it's a bank in Latam)? maybe 10-12x? def sub 1x PEG. b/c it's brazil, brazil is currently fukt. so you put a "depressed multiple" on a depressed EPS. at call it 50c and 10x - you're at $5 bucks. sick downside from the $12 it closed at today. so that's probably *worst* case, from today's POV. let's call that -60%. diddy slip and slide party pain.
a.2: PE: but this isn't some "new kid on the block". a lot of Nu investors are smart int'l types that are going to look beyond trough '25, even today, including papi warren B. so if we assume we pick up from 15% toward 20% the following year and go 50c -> 60c, you'd probably start to consider at that point at least a PEG of 1x given growth would extend to the following yrs as well. at 20x on 60c you're at $12 for year-end '26. and let's give it a 15% discount (Ke brazil finger in air - but likely in the ballpark) and you get to $10 and change for the 12M view e.g. YE25, which is the bogey we're all looking at today given we're already done w/ '24. so that's 20% downside.
combining a.1 and a.2 above... i'd likely weight a.2 as being perhaps a 70% and a.1 as 30% given the logic described, investor base and this isn't some going concern issue. also i'm being mega conservative w/ my EPS estimates as well. if you haven't noticed, they keep ripping the cover off the ball on EPS. so combined that's -60%*30% + -20%*70% = 33% downside more or less or a $8 stonk.
b: ROE thinking. 25% ROEs (probably expanding) and growing book at probably ~$1/shr for the next 2 yrs combined gets you to a book of $5. when you consider this likely continues to grow nearly 15-20% a year... and we could be conservative and say it's 10% a year (cut it more than in half)... at a 15% Ke you get:
Price = BookVal * (ROE - g)/(Ke - g) then discount 2 yrs by 15%.
this is Price = $5 * (25 - 10)/(15 - 10)/1.15/1.15 = $11+ today.
tying this all together... fair value is probably between 10 and 11 today. so buying $12 is defn being a bit opportunistic and playing a reversion move on BRL related assets. i'd not be surprised to see this thing move back toward $13/14 into year end, and equally i'd not be surprised to see it test the big green dilly from Aug 5 this year that ripped thru $10.
So, it's not an obvious trade for those who don't know this asset or haven't been following that closely. perhaps easier to wait for better entry even if that means some chop here/ there and you get a bit of fomo if first move is up.
The way i'm personally playing it are $10 and $11 strike 2027 leaps. allows me to amp my exposure without necking out too hard on a notional cash-in basis. offers about 3-1 leverage, so a 1.5-2% options position gets me a gross effective of about 5-6%. that's comfy for now. i'd like to get this position closer to 10-15% if/when we hit the $10s area or below (and it will be one to manage b/c *WHY* we go there will matter a lot - not just a rote plan, these things always evolve and perhaps there are other better deals out there too esp in the US or my favs NASDAQ:NXT , NYSE:TSM , NASDAQ:META ).
anyway. wanted to flag. should be on your radar. this is a quality LT compounder that's gotten cheap b/c of geography, but is a neo-bank virus to the existing dino's in latam.
LMK what u think or esp if u see it differently.
have a good week my friends

NU Holdings OutlookNU price has left the high volatility range and dropped by over 11% today.
The chart suggests that the first Elliott Wave A-B-C correction structure might be near completion with this five-wave downward move. Prices are reaching quite attractive levels again, prompting me to consider re-establishing a position, as the first clear correction pattern appears to be finishied soon.
There's a possibility that the entire correction could be complete. However, my main scenario anticipates that the chart will develop into a more complex correction pattern over the next few months, not finishing with this simple A-B-C structure.
There's still a chance that if the correction lasts longer, these prices could represent the lowest we'll see.
My primary target remains the 50% Fibonacci level at $9.25.
NU - Value Play of the DayObviously a lot can change within the next 20 minutes as Powell prepares his monologue... But just a value play here with NU Holdings - they've shown extremely strong growth over the past few quarters and I believe they continue that growth into next year when the market heats up again. Looking to average into a position here within the $9.50-$10.50 range.
Happy Trading :)
Great risk reward here on NUNYSE:NU is a solid growth company, just click each earnings tab so see the insane growth. It took a breather to the support line. Risk 1 to make 5 here. I like to use synthetic longs on plays like this. Sell puts and buy calls. Sell the put under the trendline. When you feel confident the trendline held you can add to the possession.

#NU Holdings UpdateNU price fell into the first anticipated FIB-level (26.6%).
In my eyes the chart finished a big Wave-(3), this impulse was going for over 600days.
Therefor I believe the chart could be in a corrective pattern a bit longer, before gaining new momentum.
Price might find shortterm support in this green Box.
