IZEA Stock Price: IZEA Worldwide Inc lost a technical level, will it attract the Robinhood crowd?

  • IZEA Worldwide Inc closed at the lowest since June 8 amid profit-taking and broad concerns. 
  • Bargain-seekers – potentially Robinhood users – may find it attractive. 
  • The influencer company sees the upside and downside of social media trends.

IZEA had all the ingredients to resume its rally – raising its employees' salaries back to pre-pandemic levels and insider buying – but that did not help. Will outside buyers now help it recover?

After a spectacular rise and a climbdown from the highs – more profit-taking was seen. Investor pushed NASDAQ: IZEA down to $1.69 on Tuesday – the lowest since June 8. Moreover, shares are now under the June 12 trough of $1.72 that served as support. The line now caps a future recovery, working as resistance.

IZEA stock news

IZEA, a media firm specializing in connecting brands and influencers on social media, may need help from influencers among the emerging investor community.

Users of the Robinhood application and other trading platforms tend to herd around cheap stocks – as seen in Hertz's case. The fallen car-rental giant entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy and still found buyers for its newly issues shares – while admitting they could be worthless.

IZEA, based in Winter Park Florida, may enjoy the sunshine amid a growing order book and is not reliant on hype. But is that enough to send its tock back to the June 11 peak of $2.82?  It also depends on the broader market mood.

On the one hand, the US economy is opening up and it already has positive results for the economy – retail sales jumped by 17.7% in May, smashing all expectations. The same reopening also caused a spike in coronavirus cases – including in Florida. 

For IZEA Worldwide, COVID-19 also provides an opportunity. The information overload causes confusion with many looking to trusted sources on social media – influencers on Instagram and other platforms – to show them the way.

GBP/USD edges lower but remains close to multi-month top, awaiting US PCE

The GBP/USD pair trades with a negative bias below mid-1.3600s during the Asian session, eroding a part of the previous day's strong gains. Spot prices, however, remain within striking distance of a six-month top, set last Friday, as traders keenly await the release of the US Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index data for a fresh impetus.

EUR/USD Remains sideways ahead of key US events

EUR/USD clinches humble gains around 1.1670 following Tuesday’s close on Wall Street. Indeed, marginal losses in the US Dollar encourages spot to set aside two dauly pullbacks in a row and maintain the 1.1700 barrier on the cross-hairs for now. Moving forward, US inflation tracked by the PCE and another revision of Q2 GDP data should keep investors entertained on Wednesday.

Gold trades with negative bias below $4,650 as USD edges higher ahead of US PCE

Gold attracts fresh sellers following the previous day's two-way price swings, and trades below $4,650. The US Dollar regains positive traction amid some repositioning ahead of the release of the US Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index and is seen as undermining the commodity. The crucial US inflation data, along with Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh's remarks at the Jackson Hole Symposium on Friday, might offer more cues over the interest rate path.

Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, Pepe: Profit-taking cools last week’s rally

Meme coins, including Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), and Pepe (PEPE), are losing their bullish momentum after last week’s double-digit gains. Facing downside pressure amid profit-taking, DOGE and PEPE risk further decline while SHIB holds at a support level.

America’s self‑inflicted trade wound
I’m conflicted about the trade war that the U.S. has started with Canada. Let’s be clear: any representation that Canada has been taking unfair advantage of the U.S. or that they have been treating us badly for years is a bogus characterization. In reality, the shoe is on the other foot. It’s the U.S. that has been behaving badly.
Canada hits US goods with tariffs; The rate market sees a problem
On September 8, Canada begins charging its own importers 15%, 25% and 50% on roughly 700 lines of American goods. The measure is billed as dollar for dollar, and on the arithmetic of covered trade it is. What it is not is a tax on the United States.
