StockStory Flags Lyft, Coursera as Buys and Etsy as Sell After 4.4% Internet Sector Drop

Summary
StockStory named Lyft and Coursera as resilient consumer internet stocks to watch and urged investors to avoid Etsy as the sector fell 4.4% in six months.
That pullback contrasts with the S&P 500’s 8.7% gain, with the report arguing weaker consumer purchasing power is driving fears of tougher demand across internet businesses.
Lyft stood out for 69.1% annual EPS growth over three years, a 24.1-point improvement in free-cash-flow margin, and a 7.8x forward EV/EBITDA valuation.
Coursera earned a positive call on projected 82.6% sales growth, 47.3% annual EPS growth over three years, and a 0.9x forward EV/EBITDA multiple.
Etsy was the stock to sell, with active buyers down 1.7% on average, sales projected to fall 2.1% over 12 months, and earnings per share flat over three years.
