GRAB (NASDAQ:GRAB) has shown impressive growth, particularly with the launch of its digital bank, and is focused on AI technology to drive profitability. This is one of those penny stocks that I believe could one day reach 5,000% gains.
For 2024, GRAB has provided optimistic guidance, expecting revenue between $2.70 billion and $2.75 billion, representing a 14-17% year-over-year increase. The company anticipates adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $250 million to $270 million. This is up from the previous guidance of $180 million to $200 million.
Analysts have a positive outlook on GRAB, with Barclays’ Jiong Shao raising the price target to $4.7, a 9.3% increase, and maintaining a strong buy rating. The stock has gained 20.9% YOY but has slightly underperformed compared to the S&P 500’s 26.6% increase.
GRAB is a great stock to bet for a rise in the gig economy, especially for countries in Southeast Asia.
