Option Income (TWTR)

in #money5 years ago

A real business is born. Time to profit.

For years, a big question lingered around one of the world's top social media firms: can it monetize its user base? Anyone will use a free service, however real businesses need to earn revenue that can be converted into profits. For a long time, Twitter (TWTR) attracted users and failed to earn revenue and profits. At the end of 2013 Twitter was valued at $36 billion with a 55 price to sales ratio (P/S). Price to sales ratio over 10 are crazy valuations. In addition the company lost $651 million dollars. Early IPO investors are living with the painful memory of what happens when the hype dies.

Today Twitter looks much more attractive with a successful monitization of users through advertising. Now that the company is an actual business with revenue and profit it is valued at $29 billion (still below the peak valuation in 2013... that is a long time to wait).

Twitter has become a hub for the latest news and opinions from eyewitnesses, industry experts, and others with 280 character tweets often with links, pictures and videos. Last quarter, Twitter's mDAU hit an all-time high of 134 million. The company has increased its average revenue per user by 24% over the past year. Over the last year Twitter generated $3.2 billion in sales with a 21% profit margin.

Twitter has formed a rounded bottom. With support around $35 now is a great time to begin investing.
