Noodles & Company (NDLS) Stock Upgraded to Buy - $26 Price Target

Noodles & Company (NDLS) Stock Upgraded to Buy - $26 Price Target.

Shares of Noodles & Company (NDLS) have dropped from $36 to $17 in a few short months but now the stock is receiving it's first upgrade ever.  UBS upgraded NDLS to buy with a $26 price target.  The firm cites positive unit growth and potential upside to earnings estimates now that they've been slashed.  This was my thinking as well and I continue to view Noodles & Company (NDLS) as a strong buy stock for the long term, 5-10 years.

Tesla (TSLA) Stock Upgraded by Morgan Stalney - $320 Price Target 2014

Tesla (TSLA) Upgraded w/ $320 Price Target in 2014 - @stockstobuy -

Tesla (TSLA) is rising to $230 in early pre market this morning after Morgan Stanley upgraded the stock with a 2014 price target of $320.  I tweeted this might happen yesterday and it looks like I was lucky on the timing.  Shorts are getting crushed and the latest victim has been CNBC guest Doug Kass.  Doug Kass tried to be a hero and short TSLA right before earnings which is something you should never do.  I doubt he will cover today so as long as shorts are holding on for dear life, Tesla shares will continue to rally.  It's when all shorts capitulate and cover, long term holders should be worried and be looking to sell.

Doughtery analyst Andrea James was the first person to upgrade Tesla (TSLA) with a $300+ price target after earnings last week.  She upgraded Tesla with a $325 price target.  Andrea James has been spot on for the past year when she predicted a $200 per share when TSLA was trading at $90.  I think I was the only one that believed her because she had to constantly defend herself on CNBC and Bloomberg.  Her calls on Tesla over the past year have been some of the best predictions I've ever seen regarding momentum growth stocks.

Tesla (TSLA) is now a strong buy below $200 if the stock ever sees another big correction.

Tesla (TSLA) Stock Upgraded - $170 Price Target in 2014

Tesla (TSLA) Upgraded w/ $170 Price Target in 2014 - @stockstobuy -

Tesla (TSLA) dropped another 10% today to close around $120 which is causing me to upgrade the stock.  Tesla (TSLA) stock has now dropped from $195 to $120 in about 6 weeks.  TSLA has dropped from $180 to $120 in the past 10 days.

Investors with a longer time horizon than a few days should view this TSLA drop as a good buying opportunity.  We could even see this stock return to $160-$170 before earnings in February 2014 as shorts cover ahead of the results.  The long term thesis is still intact and investors who missed the last rally from $105-$195 are receiving a second chance.

- Tesla has heavy insider ownership with the CEO holding almost 29 million shares or 1/4 of the company.  This is rare in a high growth company.

- Elon Musk continues to buy stock and said he was the first in and will be the last out

- At $120, the company becomes a take over target.  Google (GOOG) or Microsoft (MSFT) could easily write a check for $20 billion.

- Short interest is likely above 35% of the float of 79 million shares.

- Today we saw a 10% down day on heavy volume, a sign of capitulation.

- Tesla (TSLA) is oversold on several key indicators.

- Shorts will take profits ahead of earnings in February 2014.

- Elon Musk can easily burn shorts badly by raising guidance or announcing better battery production pre earnings.

Potbelly (PBPB) Stock Upgraded - 2014 Price Target $35

The Potbelly (PBPB) IPO two weeks ago was red hot, hitting $33.57, dropping back to $30, and then running back up to $33.90 during a horrible period in the time, the Gov't shut down crisis. Since then, PBPB stock dropped all the way down to $23.76 on some negative press.

In the last 4 trading sessions, Potbelly stock has rebounded $3 and is trading $1 shy of it's 10 day moving average. So now what? Will Potbelly (PBPB) continue the break out and close above the 10 day moving average or will the stock take a new leg lower and bottom somewhere between $21-$23?

While everyone seems to be hating on Potbelly (PBPB) in the mid $20's, I love it down here. The brand is solid, the sandwiches are amazing, and they are growing fast. Margins are juicy with most stores squeezing out 20-21% profit margins. Potbelly currently has 16 new restaurant locations in the pipeline. I think they are going to grow a lot faster than Wall St thinks. It will be interesting to see the headlines one year from now because if what I'm thinking comes true, we will be looking at a $35-$40 stock.

Potbelly (PBPB) is no Noodles & Company (NDLS) or Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) but don't count this underdog out. If they start beating earnings, revenue, and raising guidance, this stock will rip and rip hard!
My take: Potbelly (PBPB) is a buy below $25, a strong buy below $23. My PBPB 2014 Price Target is $35-$40 per share.
