Analysts think the purchase could help Skillz monetize its connected user-base by providing marketing insights to brands.
From an investment perspective, Skillz shares trade at a lucrative P/E ratio of 4.68, making the stock an exciting option for bargain hunters.
However, with analysts expecting its earnings per share to plummet by more than 474% this year before bouncing back by 31.70% next year, Skillz may not be an ideal option for long-term growth investors.
Therefore, the current valuation demonstrates the discount attached to the stock price due to the risks of investing long-term.
Technically, Skillz shares seem to have recently spiked to complete an upward breakout from a sharply descending channel formation. As a result, the stock has fully recovered from oversold conditions.
Therefore, investors could target a technical pullback at about $8.69, or lower at $7.63, while $10.61 and $11.67 are crucial resistance zones.
