The thesis — published August 10, 2025
AppLovin is one of the stronger stocks right now, backed by good news and steady buying. UBS kept a Buy rating and a $540 goal after a solid Q2, and trading activity shows lots more people are buying than usual. When a fast-rising stock looks expensive, it can still keep climbing because big investors are supporting it. In a generally positive market, consider buying pullbacks and adding if strength continues over the next 0-3 months.
