There looks to be a lot of news popping up. The China trade deal seems to have calmed down for now while the streaming competition continues to ramp up. HBO (T - Free Report) announces a new streaming service called HBO Max adding to the streaming saturation.  We break down what shows will be available and what HBO has to offer that the others don’t. With Disney+ (DIS - Free Report) and Apple TV Plus (AAPL - Free Report) to launch next month we will have to wait and see the reception of all the newly launched services. At the end we round out our conversation with the NCAA announcing that they will allow athletes to be compensated for names, images and likenesses. This is huge step for the organization since California recently passed a similar law back in September. We will have to wait and see how the regulations for this get worked out and whether or not this will hurt or help the college education system.

Zacks Names "Single Best Pick to Double"

From thousands of stocks, 5 Zacks experts each have chosen their favorite to skyrocket +100% or more in months to come. From those 5, Director of Research Sheraz Mian hand-picks one to have the most explosive upside of all.

It’s a little-known chemical company that’s up 65% over last year, yet still dirt cheap. With unrelenting demand, soaring 2022 earnings estimates, and $1.5 billion for repurchasing shares, retail investors could jump in at any time.

This company could rival or surpass other recent Zacks’ Stocks Set to Double like Boston Beer Company which shot up +143.0% in little more than 9 months and NVIDIA which boomed +175.9% in one year.
