Hims & Hers crash is just another opportunity for retail to buy the dip

Retail traders are still running toward Hims & Hers despite the company’s record one-day loss after Novo Nordisk called off its partnership with the telehealth company.

Over the past five days, Hims has been one of the most bought securities on Interactive Brokers, more than Palantir, Apple, or Amazon. Despite dropping more than 30% on the news, the move attracted opportunistic buyers, Interactive Brokers Chief Strategist Steve Sosnick wrote in a Tuesday note.

It can take some time to learn whether dip buying is instead knife catching, so the situation in HIMS will take a few days to resolve, he wrote.

Options activity on the platform has also been tilted to the bullish side over this stretch, per Interactive Brokers’ data.

Hims zigzagged a bit throughout Tuesday morning as investors continued to digest the news. While the partnership was never a revenue driver for Hims, it did quell worries about litigation risk and presented the prospect of future collaborations with the drugmaker.

SpaceX gets a wave of bullish ratings from Wall Street analysts

SpaceX received more than a dozen positive analyst calls on Tuesday — including from major Wall Street banks — as they initiate coverage on Elon Musk’s space and AI company.

SpaceX went public on June 12 at a $2.2 trillion valuation, the largest debut in history. While the company hasn’t yet posted a profit, it seems to have convinced Wall Street that it will get there and grow its valuation on the way.

Of the at least 17 analysts that gave a rating on Tuesday, all but one gave it a “buy” or “outperform” rating. MoffettNathanson was "neutral."

The ratings come as SpaceX joined the Nasdaq 100 index, a benchmark tech-heavy basket of companies that underpins millions of portfolios. The inclusion adds built-in demand for the stock from index funds and ETFs.

Still, SpaceX fell more than 5% on Tuesday amid a broader sell-off, and is currently effectively flat from its opening price of $150 a share.
