Evercore ISI’s Mark Mahaney announces top internet picks for 2022

With interest rates rising and global economies “hopefully opening” in 2022, Evercore ISI analyst Mark Mahaney is taking a “more muted/cautious stance” on the internet space, which he calls a “relatively high-growth, high-multiple” sector going into 2022. Within the mega caps, Mahaney’s top picks, in order, are Amazon.com (AMZN), Uber Technologies (UBER) and Meta (FB). Within the large caps, the analyst’s top picks, in order, are Roku (ROKU), Chewy (CHWY) and Spotify (SPOT). Within the smid-cap space, Mahaney’s top picks, in order, are Bumble (BMBL), Wix.com (WIX) and Duolingo (DUOL). The analyst says Amazon is “arguably the single best fundamental asset in Net-land.” He believes the company’s “massive” 2020 and 2021 infrastructure investments should begin to pay dividends in 2022. For Roku, he views the company’s average revenue per user upside as being underappreciated and its supply chain headwinds as transitory. Mahaney views Bumble as a “clear reopening play” with upside to the Street’s payer and EBITDA margin estimates.
