Why did Pinterest’s shares surge 16% last Friday?Pinterest’s (NYSE:PINS) shares closed up 16.2% on Friday on the New York Stock Exchange after the Wall Street Journal reported after market hours on Thursday that activist investor Elliott Investment Management has built a stake in the digital pinboard platform. Top-level departures The news came just two weeks after the company, which has been struggling with declining monthly active user numbers, announced that founder and CEO Ben Silbermann, has stepped down from the top job after more than a decade at the helm. Silbermann, 39, co-founded Pinterest with Paul Sciarra and the company’s former chief design and creative officer Evan Sharp in 2010. He was succeeded by Bill Ready, formerly from Google. The Information reported in late January that Pinterest had lost at least seven senior executives — in roles ranging from creator marketing to corporate development — at the time. Losses mount on shrinking user base The CEO change came as Pinterest booked another quarterly loss in the first quarter of 2022. Net loss totaled $5.3 million in the three months ended March 31, down from $21.7 million a year earlier, while revenue surged 18% year over year to $574.9 million. Still, the company continues to suffer from declining user numbers. Its global monthly active users (MAUs) in the first quarter narrowed 9% from a year ago to 433 million, falling short of estimates. In 2021, the company’s MAUs shrank 6% from 2020 to 431 million. TikTok wannabes Pinterest has employed various measures to bring back users to its platform including attempting to be like TikTok. The platform launched a video-first feature called “Idea Pins” in May 2021, allowing users to post short-form videos. It follows the launch of a “watch feature” in October 2021 that was similar to TikTok’s feature in which users scrolled through short videos. Pinterest is not the only app to attempt to be like TikTok. Even Meta Platforms’ (NASDAQ:META) Facebook and Instagram apps have introduced “Reels” to their platforms as the short-form video trend gains more momentum. Alphabet’s (NASDAQ:GOOGL) YouTube also introduced “Shorts” in late 2020 to keep up with the trend. Elliott stepping in With Elliott Investment Management reportedly taking a more than 9% stake in Pinterest to become the group’s largest shareholder, the activist investor could prompt Pinterest to speed up the restructuring of the platform’s business strategy. Elliott is known for being an aggressive activist investor and among the most notable changes it helped carry out was the 2021 departure of Jack Dorsey as CEO of Twitter (NYSE:TWTR), the company he co-founded. Elliott has also pushed for the spinoff of certain assets from eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY), leading to the divestment of StubHub in 2019 and Classifieds in 2020. The WSJ report, which cited people familiar with the matter, said Elliott has been in talks with Pinterest over the past several weeks, although the subject of their discussions could not be determined. Kenneth Squire, chief investment strategist at shareholder activism research firm 13D Monitor, said Elliott’s investment “is a sign of confidence in Ready’s ability to pursue several opportunities to better monetize the company’s user base.” Elliott Investment Management could push Pinterest to boost its ad revenue in global markets where they are getting 10 to 20 cents per month per user. The platform could also increase its revenue by bolstering its e-commerce service. “Given their expertise and history, we would expect Elliott to look for a board seat here, like they did at eBay and Twitter,” Squire said. Squire expects the shakeup of Pinterest to be amicable as Elliott has gained a lot of respect from shareholders and directors in the tech sector since it shook things up at Twitter and eBay. Pinterest’s shares are down 44% year-to-date as of Friday, and down 71% from a year earlier.

Equities give back gains - ProfZero not falling for bull trap 🐻INVESTMENT CONTEXT Equity markets took a breather on May 23, as operators reacted positively to U.S. President Biden commitment to review Trump-era tariffs imposed on China Accumulated gains are now being quickly given back, as futures on May 24 point to red territory for both S&P 500 and Nasdaq (dropping 1.21% and 1.88%, respectively). Snapchat (SNAP) in particular cratered 30% in the after-market on anticipated top- and bottom-line miss, dragging Pinterest (PINS) and Meta Companies (FB) 12% and 7%, respectively. Zoom (ZM) instead popped 16% over-the-counter on sales forecast beat An initial remark by President Biden that that U.S. military will intervene to defend Taiwan should the island be attacked was later walked away by White House officials International Monetary Fund (IMF) Kristalina Georgieva hinted at further cuts for this year's global economic growth PROFZERO'S TAKE The ongoing market jitters must be nerve-wrecking for the cohort of retail traders that entered the market during pandemic times. A sustained period of tech-fueled growth has quickly reversed, with Nasdaq plunging into bear market (year-to-date performance down 27%) and S&P 500 teetering on the brink of one (negative 17% since the peak in November 2021). Pandemic-era dears Pinterest (PINS), Snapchat (SNAP), Twitter (TWTR) are now down at least 50% from their peaks; blockchain assets trade even deeper in the red. Is this the end of Growth? To ProfZero, that amounts to as much as asking - are we really building the next decade on coal, legacy banking and neo-protectionism? Clocks tick on, not back Speaking of innovation, Samsung (ticker: 005930) is investing USD 356bn over the next 5 years in semiconductors, biopharmaceuticals and next-generation technologies to drive "long-term growth". Curiously enough, neither coal nor plastics appear on the plan IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva's admission that a global recession is not in the cards, but shouldn't be ruled out altogether, resonates with JPMorgan's CEO Jamie Dimon seeing "big storm clouds" on the horizon, just but darkening a currently strong economy. ProfZero already underscored the resilience of Main Street in Q1; however, trading is all about the future, and ProfZero still fails to see a sufficiently credible deterrent to avert a recession. A ceasefire in Ukraine, and normalization in energy markets would be a fair start "Frailty, thy name is... BTC". ProfZero keeps it cool on blockchain - not paying the bears' lunch

Pinterest Loosing Interest. PINSBearish patterns all around. A very beautiful zigzag already completed in a classical fashion (A=C). Despite literature, in our experience we do no see this type of arrangement commonest. Most correction in our opinion are really complex outright, thus we are expecting at least another zigzag, which it looks like started to paint itself out now. This implies that more drops are incoming, with possibly the next zigzag taking less time. We shall see. No guarantees or certainty in this game. We are not in the business of getting every prediction right, no one ever does and that is not the aim of the game. The Fibonacci targets are highlighted in purple with invalidation in red. Fibonacci goals, it is prudent to suggest, are nothing more than mere fractally evident and therefore statistically likely levels that the market will go to. Having said that, the market will always do what it wants and always has a mind of its own. Therefore, none of this is financial advice, so do your own research and rely only on your own analysis. Trading is a true one man sport. Good luck out there and stay safe!

$PINS | WEEKLY WATCHLIST 10/25After absolutely CRUSHING it on Pinterest last week, I have an updated chart overlook for this week. Just to recap, we entered long last week at $54 on the break of the downtrend. $PINS soared up to $66 on the news that PayPal was in talks to acquire them, and we have since secured profits. I believe that was only the beginning of the big picture, and we put in a solid wave 1 last week. Looking to start averaging into a swing position in my buy zone around $52.61-56. From there, we should see an impulsive wave 3 up to fill the rest of the daily gap taking us to $70+. Really love this setup, but remember to wait for confirmation and average into your swing position to help mitigate some risk!

Let's make a deal!Paypal is in talks with Pinterest about a possible takeover. The price per share is being discussed in the neighborhood of $70. It would be around $39 billion. Potential earnings, if you go in at this point, could be 11%. Watch closely, there could be pullbacks. You can exit the trade with a stop loss if it goes above the 61 ❤️ If you find this helpful and want more FREE forecasts in TradingView . . . . . Please show your support back, . . . . . . . .

PINTEREST Daily TimeframeSNIPER STRATEGY This magical strategy works like a clock on almost any charts Although I have to say it can’t predict pullbacks, so I do not suggest this strategy for leverage trading. It will not give you the whole wave like any other strategy out there but it will give you huge part of the wave. The best timeframe for this strategy is Daily, Weekly and Monthly however it can work any timeframe above three minutes. Start believing in this strategy because it will reward believers with huge profit. There is a lot more about this strategy. It can predict and also it can give you almost exact buy or sell time on the spot. I am developing it even more so stay tuned and start to follow me for more signals and forecasts.

$PINSPinterest tracks monthly active users, or MAUs. If you open the app, go to the website, or even save a pin through a browser extension during a calendar month, then you're a MAU. This stands in contrast to other platforms like Snap's Snapchat that track daily active users, or DAUs. Obviously, it's easier to get a MAU than a DAU. As a whole, Pinterest's user base increased in Q2. Globally, MAUs increased 9% year over year to 454 million. This was due to a 13% increase in international users -- the larger user base. However, MAUs in the U.S. decreased 5% from the same quarter last year. It might seem like this doesn't matter. After all, the larger user base -- international -- grew. However, Pinterest makes a lot more money from U.S. users than international users. Average revenue per user, or ARPU, in the U.S. was $5.08 compared to just $0.36 per international users. Therefore, Pinterest is losing its most valuable users. That's why the stock unsurprisingly fell. On the technical side of things.. Pinterest has finally found support on the daily chart after a long battle since earnings. This Ccould possibly be a good time to look at this. I’m bullish. First target - $60 Second target - Gap fill. Keep this on your watchlist. - Factor Four

$PINS Left a window open, let’s close it.NYSE:PINS went through a bit of a sell off into and on their earnings day. The earnings day selling was drastic at open and that caused a window to open in the chart. We should close it before it gets crafty. Currently on the 8hr chart we closed just above support and on the 0.5 of the upper channel fib of the descending trend. Attempting to enter again at support ($55.75) on a slight retrace could prove successful or entry can be taken slightly higher to be safe. 
 A few points worth mentioning: - RSI is bottomed out. - MACD is showing that nearish momentum has eased off and may flip into a bullish state soon. - Cipher B showing a buy signal on the 8hr chart - Looks like earnings day sell of may have finished based on the final 8hr candle closing as a doji. Momentum in the candles is visually easing. - Massive window opening between $60.88 & $70.39 - Near to 0 of the previous uptrend fib lines, representing a near full retrace. No bounce and traveling further past our 0 line at $53.91 could represent downtrend continuation.
