Analysis

This business model not only provides a platform for creative talent, but also creates a dynamic connection between providers and consumers of services. Our analysis is based on Elliott Wave Theory, which suggests that the stock completed a wave “ii” in early September. This may have signaled a new upward momentum with the price on the verge of a potential rise leading into wave “iii”.

Conclusion

  1. Overall, Upwork remains an exciting investment that could benefit from both the trends in the freelance market and the current share price development. 
    price development.
  2. The share appears to be in the initial phase of a wave “iii”.
  3. A rise to USD 25.55 or even USD 33.23 is conceivable.
  4. Stability below USD 13 would call our optimistic scenario into question.
