community, Envision Early Retirement.</li></ul><h3>Q3 recap and investment thesis</h3><p>My last article on <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> and Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B) is co-produced with Sensor Unlimited and published about a month ago in early November. That article argued that share repurchases at both AAPL and BRK are far more potent when considered together than viewed separately. Such “double buybacks” are compounding on steroids in our view.</p><p>In this article, we want to switch the focus entirely. We will argue A) why buying/adding AAPL around its current price (which translates to about 20x owners&#39; earnings) is a no-brainer, and B) why owning AAPL via BRK is an even better idea.</p><p>Both AAPL and BRK have posted strong Q3 earnings. The key results are shown in the two charts below, and I will dive into the highlights as we go. These strong results, when combined with the price corrections during Q3 due to (or thanks to) market volatilities, investors have some great opportunities to buy or add these perpetual compounders at enticing entry valuations.</p><p>For AAPL, its TTM EPS as of Q3 2022 (i.e., its FY Q4) came in at $6.11 per share as you can see from the first chart below. Later, you will see that such accounting EPS underestimates its owners&#39; earnings (“OE”), and its OE is around $7.18, which translates into a share price near ~$145 at a 20x OE multiple. And I kept telling my readers buying/adding stock like AAPL near or below 20x OE is a no-brainer. Stocks like AAPL (or BRK) are quintessential examples of equity bonds as explained in my earlier article because:</p><p>To me, any valuation near or below 20x OE is very attractive for a stock with ROCE (return on capital employed) near 100% like AAPL. At about 100% ROCE, a 5% investment rate would provide 5% organic real growth rates (i.e., before inflation adjustments). And a 20x OE would provide about 5% owners earnings yield, leading to a total return in the double digits. Once you adjust for the risks (and I consider the risks from AAPL similar to treasury bonds), a 10%+ annual return is ~3x of what you can get from bonds in the long term.</p><p>In this article, I will focus on an alternative way to own AAPL, a sort of backdoor, through BRK. And I will explain why owning AAPL this way is even more attractive under current conditions. And this brings me to the financials of BRK, as shown in the second chart in this section.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f61e045c67f643b98ba432f7f5f77739\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"585\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>BRK reported strong operating results for Q3 also and is on pace for a solid 2022. Operating earnings per share, which excludes capital gains and losses from the investment portfolio, clocked in at $3.00 in Q3, translating into an annual growth rate of almost 20% YOY. This was particularly impressive considering that its insurance segment suffered higher-than-usual operations losses due to hurricane Ida, Ian, and also the floods in Europe. The remainder of this analysis also will involve its balance sheet, which is posted below. And a couple of highlights relevant to the subsequent analyses:</p><ul><li>All my following per-share numbers for BRK (e.g., OE, equity, cash, et al) are quoted per Berkshire Hathaway B share, not A shares. Given that the focus here is on the financial (not voting power), the analysis should be perfectly applicable for A shares.</li><li>Its equivalent Class B shares outstanding is taken to be 2.2B shares according to its most recent 10-K filing. The market value of its equity investment portfolio is taken from dataroma. And as of this writing, the portfolio value is reported to be $296.1B, slightly below the $306B shown in its 10-K below due to market fluctuations since the filing.</li></ul><p>With these parameters, let’s dive in and see how we can own AAPL through BRK at an effective PE of ~12x or below.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/744119f29d38279a1a7fad8febbe605e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"401\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>AAPL’s EPS and OE</h3><p>Since we are analyzing AAPL and BRK, it&#39;s only fitting to start with a quote from Warren Buffett on the difference between accounting EPS and owners&#39; earnings (“OE”). The following is taken from Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s 1986 annual report (slightly edited with emphases added by me):</p><p>These represent (“a”) reported earnings plus (“b”) depreciation, depletion, amortization, and certain other non-cash charges...less (“c”) the average annual amount of capitalized expenditures for plant and equipment, etc. that the business requires to fully maintain its long-term competitive position and its unit volume...Our owner-earnings equation does not yield the deceptively precise figures provided by GAAP, since (“c”) must be a guess - and one sometimes very difficult to make. Despite this problem, we consider the owner earnings figure, not the GAAP figure, to be the relevant item for valuation purposes...All of this points up the absurdity of the &#39;cash flow&#39; numbers that are often set forth in Wall Street reports. These numbers routinely include (“a”) plus (“b”) - but do not subtract (“c”).</p><p>The key is to estimate item c, and my analysis of item c for AAPL is shown in the table below. This table is based off Bruce Greenwald’s method (detailed in his book Value Investing) to separate maintenance capex and growth capex. Readers interested in the details could find them in my earlier article or his book.</p><p>To wit, AAPL’s TTM accounting EPS came in at $6.11 per share as aforementioned. However, its OE is about $7.18 per share, about 18% higher. The reason for this higher OE is the accounting EPS considered all CAPEX to be a cost, while only the maintenance capex should be considered as costs as Buffett explained above. In AAPL’s case, the discrepancy should be obvious as its accounting EPS is even lower than its FCF (free cash flow) by about 13%, and then even the FCF is an underestimate of the true OE (again because the FCF calculation also considered all the capex expenses to costs). The third column in the table shows my forecast for the next year. And as you can see, the OE for Apple in the next year is projected to be $7.33 per share.</p><p>All told, Apple&#39;s accounting PE is about 23x, a number all AAPL investors must be very familiar with. However, once you consider its OE, then the multiple is actually on the order of 20x for this year and slightly below 20x on an FW basis.</p><p>Then finally, remember that Apple also carries a net cash position on its balance sheet (about $2.27 per share under its current conditions). Once you adjust the cash position too, its OE PE is on the order of 19.9x for this year and only 19.5x for next year.</p><p>And in the next section, we will see how we can do even better through BRK.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c3ac6ab756c4503f2a547af66444cff4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"344\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Backdoor AAPL via BRK</h3><p>As mentioned earlier, the market value of BRK’s equity investment portfolio (based on dataroma) is at $296.1B As of this writing. AAPL is the largest position and is valued at $123.6B. So BRK’s equity investment excluding AAPL is worth about $173B, or $77 per share. The market capitalization for BRK is about $701B ($315 share price). Then also recall from its balance sheet, we know that there is $109 billion worth of cash sitting on its ledger.</p><p>Putting all these above numbers together, we can show that:</p><p>If we take out all the other equity investments except AAPL and the cash, BRK’s adjusted market cap is $420B (or $189 per share). This means if we buy BRK shares at $315 and then liquidate the cash and all other equity investments except AAPL, we effectively paid $189 for each BRK share only.</p><p>Why does this $189 buy us then? First, we bought all the AAPL shares that BRK owns. As of this writing, BRK owns a total of 894.8 million shares of AAPL, translating into 0.40 AAPL shares contained per BRK share. BRK has been consistently buying back its own shares. And I project this trend to continue. Extrapolating its share repurchase from the previous quarters, the AAPL shares contained in each BRK share would increase to 0.41 next year as shown.</p><p>Second, we also bought all the BRK operating segments too, which is what we will examine next.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16462afe4efe010fb29b16d41385f15a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"181\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>AAPL’s ownership PE via BRK</h3><p>BRK is projected to earn $12.9 per share of operating income in 2022, although 2022 may not be the most representative year. My best estimate for its normalized operating income is about $12 per share (or $26.7B in total), which is the assumption that I used in the analysis shown in the following table.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4af9da2b8625409ae4723445ce6a9c94\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"159\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Now just as established above, if we buy BRK shares at $315, we are effectively buying 0.40 AAPL shares (or 0.41 on an FW basis) and all the BRK operating segments for $189. The BRK operating segments would provide earnings of $12 per share as assumed above, and the 0.4 AAPL shares would provide an OE of $2.88 (=0.40*$7.18). Thus, we paid $189 and got a total of $14.88 per share of OE ($12 from BRK operations plus $2.88 from AAPL). On an FW basis, the earnings would further increase to $15.13 per share due to a combination of AAPL earnings growth and BRK’s share repurchases as discussed above.</p><p>Now, how you compute the PE multiple here depends on how you value BRK’s operating income. The last row of the table shows an aggregated average, a sort of effective &#34;ownership&#34; PE of AAPL and BRK together, which turned out to be 12.7x based on 2022 financials and 12.1x on an FW basis.</p><p>If BRK’s operating income is priced at a 15x multiple – a quite reasonable multiple in my view, then BRK’s operating income would be worth $180 per share. Hence, we would be paying only $9 ($189-$12*15) for the 0.4 AAPL share, which provides $2.88 of OE. This means we would be owning the AAPL shares at a PE of about 3.1x only.</p><h3>Risks and final thoughts</h3><p>Specific risks for AAPL or BRK have been thoroughly discussed in other SA articles (including some of our own), and I won’t further add them here. Here I will focus on the risks and limitations associated with the particular backdoor idea described in this article.</p><ul><li>BRK’s cash position. In this analysis, I assumed that you could liquidate all the cash on its ledger. But of course, a good part of the cash is insurance float and cannot be liquidated (at least cannot be entirely liquidated). But there also are good reasons behind the approach that I used – at least as a thought experiment to analyze the financials and valuation. After all, cash is cash. If you buy BRK completely, every $1 in the insurance float still counts as $1.</li><li>Worth of BRK’s equity portfolio. The market valuation of BRK’s equity portfolio is always a moving target and changes on a daily basis with the market volatilities. Hence, there is some uncertainty here too. As aforementioned, the current portfolio value of $296.1B is already below the $306B disclosed in its 10-K back in September.</li></ul><p>Nonetheless, it’s always better to be approximately right than precisely wrong. And the bigger picture I see here are:</p><ul><li>Owning a perpetual compounder like AAPL near or below 20x OE is a no-brainer to me. And under Apple’s current conditions, with the cash position and underestimation of accounting EPS adjusted, a ~$145 stock price should translate into a 20x OE or below.</li><li>The discrepancy between accounting PE and OE PE is even larger than BRK. And once these discrepancies are corrected, we can own Apple shares with an effective “ownership” PE through BRK at heavy discounts. The exact discounts depend on how your value BRK’s operating income, which can lead to an ownership PE of AAPL in the range of ~12x to free based on my analyses.</li></ul></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Apple Is Good, Even Better If Owned Via Berkshire Hathaway</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nApple Is Good, Even Better If Owned Via Berkshire Hathaway\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-12-06 10:22 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4562427-apple-is-good-even-better-if-owned-via-berkshire-hathaway><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryI kept telling my readers buying/adding Apple near or below 20x owners' earnings is a no brainer (i.e., a ~$145 price under current conditions).In this article, I will explain a way to backdoor...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4562427-apple-is-good-even-better-if-owned-via-berkshire-hathaway\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4562427-apple-is-good-even-better-if-owned-via-berkshire-hathaway","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1125714153","content_text":"SummaryI kept telling my readers buying/adding Apple near or below 20x owners' earnings is a no brainer (i.e., a ~$145 price under current conditions).In this article, I will explain a way to backdoor Apple through Berkshire Hathaway.I will explain why owning Apple shares via Berkshire is even more attractive under their current conditions.This way, you get to own Apple with an effective “ownership”PE in the range of ~12x to free depending on how you value Berkshires’ operating earnings.This idea was discussed in more depth with members of my private investing community, Envision Early Retirement.Q3 recap and investment thesisMy last article on Apple and Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B) is co-produced with Sensor Unlimited and published about a month ago in early November. That article argued that share repurchases at both AAPL and BRK are far more potent when considered together than viewed separately. Such “double buybacks” are compounding on steroids in our view.In this article, we want to switch the focus entirely. We will argue A) why buying/adding AAPL around its current price (which translates to about 20x owners' earnings) is a no-brainer, and B) why owning AAPL via BRK is an even better idea.Both AAPL and BRK have posted strong Q3 earnings. The key results are shown in the two charts below, and I will dive into the highlights as we go. These strong results, when combined with the price corrections during Q3 due to (or thanks to) market volatilities, investors have some great opportunities to buy or add these perpetual compounders at enticing entry valuations.For AAPL, its TTM EPS as of Q3 2022 (i.e., its FY Q4) came in at $6.11 per share as you can see from the first chart below. Later, you will see that such accounting EPS underestimates its owners' earnings (“OE”), and its OE is around $7.18, which translates into a share price near ~$145 at a 20x OE multiple. And I kept telling my readers buying/adding stock like AAPL near or below 20x OE is a no-brainer. Stocks like AAPL (or BRK) are quintessential examples of equity bonds as explained in my earlier article because:To me, any valuation near or below 20x OE is very attractive for a stock with ROCE (return on capital employed) near 100% like AAPL. At about 100% ROCE, a 5% investment rate would provide 5% organic real growth rates (i.e., before inflation adjustments). And a 20x OE would provide about 5% owners earnings yield, leading to a total return in the double digits. Once you adjust for the risks (and I consider the risks from AAPL similar to treasury bonds), a 10%+ annual return is ~3x of what you can get from bonds in the long term.In this article, I will focus on an alternative way to own AAPL, a sort of backdoor, through BRK. And I will explain why owning AAPL this way is even more attractive under current conditions. And this brings me to the financials of BRK, as shown in the second chart in this section.BRK reported strong operating results for Q3 also and is on pace for a solid 2022. Operating earnings per share, which excludes capital gains and losses from the investment portfolio, clocked in at $3.00 in Q3, translating into an annual growth rate of almost 20% YOY. This was particularly impressive considering that its insurance segment suffered higher-than-usual operations losses due to hurricane Ida, Ian, and also the floods in Europe. The remainder of this analysis also will involve its balance sheet, which is posted below. And a couple of highlights relevant to the subsequent analyses:All my following per-share numbers for BRK (e.g., OE, equity, cash, et al) are quoted per Berkshire Hathaway B share, not A shares. Given that the focus here is on the financial (not voting power), the analysis should be perfectly applicable for A shares.Its equivalent Class B shares outstanding is taken to be 2.2B shares according to its most recent 10-K filing. The market value of its equity investment portfolio is taken from dataroma. And as of this writing, the portfolio value is reported to be $296.1B, slightly below the $306B shown in its 10-K below due to market fluctuations since the filing.With these parameters, let’s dive in and see how we can own AAPL through BRK at an effective PE of ~12x or below.AAPL’s EPS and OESince we are analyzing AAPL and BRK, it's only fitting to start with a quote from Warren Buffett on the difference between accounting EPS and owners' earnings (“OE”). The following is taken from Berkshire Hathaway's 1986 annual report (slightly edited with emphases added by me):These represent (“a”) reported earnings plus (“b”) depreciation, depletion, amortization, and certain other non-cash charges...less (“c”) the average annual amount of capitalized expenditures for plant and equipment, etc. that the business requires to fully maintain its long-term competitive position and its unit volume...Our owner-earnings equation does not yield the deceptively precise figures provided by GAAP, since (“c”) must be a guess - and one sometimes very difficult to make. Despite this problem, we consider the owner earnings figure, not the GAAP figure, to be the relevant item for valuation purposes...All of this points up the absurdity of the 'cash flow' numbers that are often set forth in Wall Street reports. These numbers routinely include (“a”) plus (“b”) - but do not subtract (“c”).The key is to estimate item c, and my analysis of item c for AAPL is shown in the table below. This table is based off Bruce Greenwald’s method (detailed in his book Value Investing) to separate maintenance capex and growth capex. Readers interested in the details could find them in my earlier article or his book.To wit, AAPL’s TTM accounting EPS came in at $6.11 per share as aforementioned. However, its OE is about $7.18 per share, about 18% higher. The reason for this higher OE is the accounting EPS considered all CAPEX to be a cost, while only the maintenance capex should be considered as costs as Buffett explained above. In AAPL’s case, the discrepancy should be obvious as its accounting EPS is even lower than its FCF (free cash flow) by about 13%, and then even the FCF is an underestimate of the true OE (again because the FCF calculation also considered all the capex expenses to costs). The third column in the table shows my forecast for the next year. And as you can see, the OE for Apple in the next year is projected to be $7.33 per share.All told, Apple's accounting PE is about 23x, a number all AAPL investors must be very familiar with. However, once you consider its OE, then the multiple is actually on the order of 20x for this year and slightly below 20x on an FW basis.Then finally, remember that Apple also carries a net cash position on its balance sheet (about $2.27 per share under its current conditions). Once you adjust the cash position too, its OE PE is on the order of 19.9x for this year and only 19.5x for next year.And in the next section, we will see how we can do even better through BRK.Backdoor AAPL via BRKAs mentioned earlier, the market value of BRK’s equity investment portfolio (based on dataroma) is at $296.1B As of this writing. AAPL is the largest position and is valued at $123.6B. So BRK’s equity investment excluding AAPL is worth about $173B, or $77 per share. The market capitalization for BRK is about $701B ($315 share price). Then also recall from its balance sheet, we know that there is $109 billion worth of cash sitting on its ledger.Putting all these above numbers together, we can show that:If we take out all the other equity investments except AAPL and the cash, BRK’s adjusted market cap is $420B (or $189 per share). This means if we buy BRK shares at $315 and then liquidate the cash and all other equity investments except AAPL, we effectively paid $189 for each BRK share only.Why does this $189 buy us then? First, we bought all the AAPL shares that BRK owns. As of this writing, BRK owns a total of 894.8 million shares of AAPL, translating into 0.40 AAPL shares contained per BRK share. BRK has been consistently buying back its own shares. And I project this trend to continue. Extrapolating its share repurchase from the previous quarters, the AAPL shares contained in each BRK share would increase to 0.41 next year as shown.Second, we also bought all the BRK operating segments too, which is what we will examine next.AAPL’s ownership PE via BRKBRK is projected to earn $12.9 per share of operating income in 2022, although 2022 may not be the most representative year. My best estimate for its normalized operating income is about $12 per share (or $26.7B in total), which is the assumption that I used in the analysis shown in the following table.Now just as established above, if we buy BRK shares at $315, we are effectively buying 0.40 AAPL shares (or 0.41 on an FW basis) and all the BRK operating segments for $189. The BRK operating segments would provide earnings of $12 per share as assumed above, and the 0.4 AAPL shares would provide an OE of $2.88 (=0.40*$7.18). Thus, we paid $189 and got a total of $14.88 per share of OE ($12 from BRK operations plus $2.88 from AAPL). On an FW basis, the earnings would further increase to $15.13 per share due to a combination of AAPL earnings growth and BRK’s share repurchases as discussed above.Now, how you compute the PE multiple here depends on how you value BRK’s operating income. The last row of the table shows an aggregated average, a sort of effective \"ownership\" PE of AAPL and BRK together, which turned out to be 12.7x based on 2022 financials and 12.1x on an FW basis.If BRK’s operating income is priced at a 15x multiple – a quite reasonable multiple in my view, then BRK’s operating income would be worth $180 per share. Hence, we would be paying only $9 ($189-$12*15) for the 0.4 AAPL share, which provides $2.88 of OE. This means we would be owning the AAPL shares at a PE of about 3.1x only.Risks and final thoughtsSpecific risks for AAPL or BRK have been thoroughly discussed in other SA articles (including some of our own), and I won’t further add them here. Here I will focus on the risks and limitations associated with the particular backdoor idea described in this article.BRK’s cash position. In this analysis, I assumed that you could liquidate all the cash on its ledger. But of course, a good part of the cash is insurance float and cannot be liquidated (at least cannot be entirely liquidated). But there also are good reasons behind the approach that I used – at least as a thought experiment to analyze the financials and valuation. After all, cash is cash. If you buy BRK completely, every $1 in the insurance float still counts as $1.Worth of BRK’s equity portfolio. The market valuation of BRK’s equity portfolio is always a moving target and changes on a daily basis with the market volatilities. Hence, there is some uncertainty here too. As aforementioned, the current portfolio value of $296.1B is already below the $306B disclosed in its 10-K back in September.Nonetheless, it’s always better to be approximately right than precisely wrong. And the bigger picture I see here are:Owning a perpetual compounder like AAPL near or below 20x OE is a no-brainer to me. And under Apple’s current conditions, with the cash position and underestimation of accounting EPS adjusted, a ~$145 stock price should translate into a 20x OE or below.The discrepancy between accounting PE and OE PE is even larger than BRK. And once these discrepancies are corrected, we can own Apple shares with an effective “ownership” PE through BRK at heavy discounts. The exact discounts depend on how your value BRK’s operating income, which can lead to an ownership PE of AAPL in the range of ~12x to free based on my analyses.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":195,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9987462765,"gmtCreate":1667966226658,"gmtModify":1676537991984,"author":{"id":"3561593321242476","authorId":"3561593321242476","name":"CharlesW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e2dd0db13607e6749ee804b823bf5b4","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I wonder how many ppl will take the opportunity...&nbsp;","listText":"I wonder how many ppl will take the opportunity...&nbsp;","text":"I wonder how many ppl will take the opportunity...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9987462765","repostId":"2281606495","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2281606495","pubTimestamp":1667973226,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2281606495?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-11-09 13:53","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Once-in-a-Decade Buying Opportunity: 2 Trillion-Dollar Growth Stocks Near a 52-Week Low","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2281606495","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These tech titans have woven themselves into the fabric of everyday life.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>At the end of 2021, tech giants <b>Alphabet</b> and <b>Microsoft</b> were collectively worth more than $4.4 trillion. But that figure has fallen to $2.7 trillion over the last 10 months, showcasing how much investor sentiment has soured in response to lingering inflation and quickly rising interest rates.</p><p>Since last peaking, Alphabet and Microsoft have seen their share prices plunge 44% and 38%, respectively, leaving both stocks near a 52-week low. Neither company has seen a sell-off of that magnitude at any point in the past 10 years, which makes this a once-in-a-decade buying opportunity.</p><p>Here&#39;s what investors should know.</p><h2>1. Alphabet: The market leader in digital advertising</h2><p>Alphabet missed Wall Street&#39;s guidance across the board in its third-quarter earnings report. Total revenue climbed just 6% to $69.1 billion, and net income fell 24% to $13.9 billion. Google Cloud was the one bright spot. That segment posted 38% revenue growth, though its operating loss widened slightly.</p><p>However, as CEO Sundar Pichai pointed out during the earnings call, those weak results were &#34;impacted by lapping last year&#39;s elevated growth levels and the challenging macro climate.&#34; In other words, there is no material weakness in the underlying business, and there are still plenty of reasons to be bullish.</p><p>First and foremost, Alphabet is an advertising colossus, and its prowess arises from web properties that cannot be easily replicated. Google Search is built on years of carefully crafted search algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI) models, and it holds 92% market share among search engines. Google is basically the doorway to the internet, and that makes it a valuable partner to marketers. Similarly, YouTube surpassed <b>Netflix</b> in September to become the most popular streaming platform, and a recent study from Pew Research says 95% of teens use YouTube far more than any other social media platform.</p><p>Meanwhile, Alphabet is gaining ground in cloud computing. In the third quarter, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) accounted for 9% of cloud infrastructure spend, up from 8% in the same period last year, according to Canalys. It still trails the leaders, <b>Amazon </b>Web Services and Microsoft Azure, by a wide margin, but research company <b>Gartner</b> recently noted that GCP had the &#34;highest percentage of revenue gains and improvements&#34; of any cloud provider over the past year.</p><p>In a nutshell, Alphabet has carved out a strong market presence in two important industries, both of which are expected to grow at a steady pace through the end of the decade. Precedence Research says worldwide digital ad spend will increase by 9.2% annually to approach $1.3 trillion by 2030, and Grand View Research says cloud spend will increase by 15.7% annually to approach $1.6 trillion by 2030. That leaves Alphabet with plenty of room to run.</p><p>With that in mind, shares currently trade at 16.6 times earnings -- the cheapest valuation in the last five years -- creating an attractive buying opportunity for investors that have been eyeing this growth stock.</p><h2>2. Microsoft: The market leader in business productivity software</h2><p>Microsoft topped Wall Street&#39;s estimates in the first fiscal quarter of 2023 (ended Sept. 30, 2022). Revenue rose 11% to $50.1 billion, and earnings dropped 13% to $2.35 per diluted share. That said, earnings actually increased 11% when adjusted for currency fluctuations and a one-time tax benefit last year. In this case, it was guidance that failed to impress. Management said weakness in PC demand and decreased ad spend on LinkedIn and Bing would carry into the next quarter, and that kept the stock on a downward trajectory.</p><p>In this situation, investors need to look at the big picture: Countless businesses and consumers rely on Microsoft&#39;s software and cloud services. In fact, some of its products are so critical that the world might actually devolve into chaos if the company were to disappear tomorrow.</p><p>Office 365 is the gold standard in office productivity applications, but Microsoft is also a leader in other software categories, including enterprise resource planning, business analytics, low-code application development, and communications. Digital transformation should be a tailwind for all of those markets, but Microsoft has even more exciting growth opportunities in cloud computing and cybersecurity.</p><p>Microsoft Azure has invested heavily in areas like developer tools, data and AI, and hybrid cloud solutions, and those investments continued to pay off over the past year. Azure Machine Learning, a service that helps data scientists build and deploy AI models, has now notched 100% revenue growth for four consecutive quarters, and Microsoft Azure increased its share of the cloud infrastructure market to 22%, up from 21% in the prior year.</p><p>Meanwhile, industry analysts have also recognized Microsoft as a leader in several verticals of the cybersecurity industry, including extended detection and response, access management, and security information and event management. Not surprisingly, those accolades have come alongside particularly impressive growth. Cybersecurity revenue soared 40% in fiscal 2022 (ended June 30), and Microsoft increased its security customers by 33% in the most recent quarter. That bodes well for the future.

But that figure has fallen to $2.7 trillion over the last 10 months, showcasing how much investor sentiment has soured in response to lingering inflation and quickly rising interest rates.Since last peaking, Alphabet and Microsoft have seen their share prices plunge 44% and 38%, respectively, leaving both stocks near a 52-week low. Neither company has seen a sell-off of that magnitude at any point in the past 10 years, which makes this a once-in-a-decade buying opportunity.Here's what investors should know.1. Alphabet: The market leader in digital advertisingAlphabet missed Wall Street's guidance across the board in its third-quarter earnings report. Total revenue climbed just 6% to $69.1 billion, and net income fell 24% to $13.9 billion. Google Cloud was the one bright spot. That segment posted 38% revenue growth, though its operating loss widened slightly.However, as CEO Sundar Pichai pointed out during the earnings call, those weak results were \"impacted by lapping last year's elevated growth levels and the challenging macro climate.\" In other words, there is no material weakness in the underlying business, and there are still plenty of reasons to be bullish.First and foremost, Alphabet is an advertising colossus, and its prowess arises from web properties that cannot be easily replicated. Google Search is built on years of carefully crafted search algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI) models, and it holds 92% market share among search engines. Google is basically the doorway to the internet, and that makes it a valuable partner to marketers. Similarly, YouTube surpassed Netflix in September to become the most popular streaming platform, and a recent study from Pew Research says 95% of teens use YouTube far more than any other social media platform.Meanwhile, Alphabet is gaining ground in cloud computing. In the third quarter, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) accounted for 9% of cloud infrastructure spend, up from 8% in the same period last year, according to Canalys. It still trails the leaders, Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure, by a wide margin, but research company Gartner recently noted that GCP had the \"highest percentage of revenue gains and improvements\" of any cloud provider over the past year.In a nutshell, Alphabet has carved out a strong market presence in two important industries, both of which are expected to grow at a steady pace through the end of the decade. Precedence Research says worldwide digital ad spend will increase by 9.2% annually to approach $1.3 trillion by 2030, and Grand View Research says cloud spend will increase by 15.7% annually to approach $1.6 trillion by 2030. That leaves Alphabet with plenty of room to run.With that in mind, shares currently trade at 16.6 times earnings -- the cheapest valuation in the last five years -- creating an attractive buying opportunity for investors that have been eyeing this growth stock.2. Microsoft: The market leader in business productivity softwareMicrosoft topped Wall Street's estimates in the first fiscal quarter of 2023 (ended Sept. 30, 2022). Revenue rose 11% to $50.1 billion, and earnings dropped 13% to $2.35 per diluted share. That said, earnings actually increased 11% when adjusted for currency fluctuations and a one-time tax benefit last year. In this case, it was guidance that failed to impress. Management said weakness in PC demand and decreased ad spend on LinkedIn and Bing would carry into the next quarter, and that kept the stock on a downward trajectory.In this situation, investors need to look at the big picture: Countless businesses and consumers rely on Microsoft's software and cloud services. In fact, some of its products are so critical that the world might actually devolve into chaos if the company were to disappear tomorrow.Office 365 is the gold standard in office productivity applications, but Microsoft is also a leader in other software categories, including enterprise resource planning, business analytics, low-code application development, and communications. Digital transformation should be a tailwind for all of those markets, but Microsoft has even more exciting growth opportunities in cloud computing and cybersecurity.Microsoft Azure has invested heavily in areas like developer tools, data and AI, and hybrid cloud solutions, and those investments continued to pay off over the past year. Azure Machine Learning, a service that helps data scientists build and deploy AI models, has now notched 100% revenue growth for four consecutive quarters, and Microsoft Azure increased its share of the cloud infrastructure market to 22%, up from 21% in the prior year.Meanwhile, industry analysts have also recognized Microsoft as a leader in several verticals of the cybersecurity industry, including extended detection and response, access management, and security information and event management. Not surprisingly, those accolades have come alongside particularly impressive growth. Cybersecurity revenue soared 40% in fiscal 2022 (ended June 30), and Microsoft increased its security customers by 33% in the most recent quarter. That bodes well for the future. The cybersecurity market is expected to increase by 12% per year to reach $500 billion by 2030.In a nutshell, Microsoft's arsenal of mission-critical software products and cloud services should keep the company in growth mode for years to come. And with shares trading at 23.1 times earnings -- the cheapest valuation in the last three years -- now is a good time to buy this growth stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":252,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9065395410,"gmtCreate":1652142692530,"gmtModify":1676535038586,"author":{"id":"3561593321242476","authorId":"3561593321242476","name":"CharlesW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e2dd0db13607e6749ee804b823bf5b4","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/COIN\">$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$</a>&nbsp;Another bloody nite for Coinbase...

2 Top Growth Stocks to Buy Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2225516773","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These e-commerce companies could be next in line to split their stocks.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The recent wave of stock splits has some investors fired up. Of course, splitting a stock has no effect on corporate size or profitability. It&#39;s analogous to cutting a cake into more slices. You end up with the same amount of cake, but each piece is smaller. Similarly, splitting a stock leaves its market cap unchanged, but it makes individual shares more accessible, especially for investors who can&#39;t buy fractional shares through their brokerage account.</p><p>With that in mind, <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MELI\">MercadoLibre</a></b> and <b>Shopify</b> could be the next companies to split their stocks. Shopify trades near $650 per share, and MercadoLibre trades near $1,150 per share -- that&#39;s a good chunk of change. But even if those splits don&#39;t happen, both stocks could still make you richer in the long run.</p><p>Here&#39;s why.</p><h2>1. MercadoLibre</h2><p>In 1999, MercadoLibre revolutionized the Latin American commerce industry with the launch of its online marketplace. A few years later, the company debuted its fintech solution, Mercado Pago, democratizing digital payments in a region where relatively few consumers have access to bank accounts and debit cards. MercadoLibre has since built a sizable logistics network to simplify shipping and fulfillment, and it has added advertising and financing tools to its portfolio.</p><p>That extensive ecosystem has differentiated MercadoLibre from its rivals, helping it become the leading e-commerce and fintech company in Latin America. Better yet, that dominant market position has given MercadoLibre significant pricing power. Its take rate -- commerce revenue as a percentage of gross merchandise volume -- hit 16.3% in 2021, up from 9.6% in 2019. In turn, revenue skyrocketed 78% to $7.1 billion last year, and the company posted a profit of $1.67 per diluted share, up from a loss of $0.08 per diluted share in the previous year.</p><p>Currently, just 62% of people in Latin America use the internet, and only 38% shop online. Those figures should trend upwards in the coming years, supercharging the e-commerce and digital payments industries. As the leader in both spaces, MercadoLibre should benefit greatly from that tailwind.

Of course, splitting a stock has no effect on corporate size or profitability. It's analogous to cutting a cake into more slices. You end up with the same amount of cake, but each piece is smaller. Similarly, splitting a stock leaves its market cap unchanged, but it makes individual shares more accessible, especially for investors who can't buy fractional shares through their brokerage account.With that in mind, MercadoLibre and Shopify could be the next companies to split their stocks. Shopify trades near $650 per share, and MercadoLibre trades near $1,150 per share -- that's a good chunk of change. But even if those splits don't happen, both stocks could still make you richer in the long run.Here's why.1. MercadoLibreIn 1999, MercadoLibre revolutionized the Latin American commerce industry with the launch of its online marketplace. A few years later, the company debuted its fintech solution, Mercado Pago, democratizing digital payments in a region where relatively few consumers have access to bank accounts and debit cards. MercadoLibre has since built a sizable logistics network to simplify shipping and fulfillment, and it has added advertising and financing tools to its portfolio.That extensive ecosystem has differentiated MercadoLibre from its rivals, helping it become the leading e-commerce and fintech company in Latin America. Better yet, that dominant market position has given MercadoLibre significant pricing power. Its take rate -- commerce revenue as a percentage of gross merchandise volume -- hit 16.3% in 2021, up from 9.6% in 2019. In turn, revenue skyrocketed 78% to $7.1 billion last year, and the company posted a profit of $1.67 per diluted share, up from a loss of $0.08 per diluted share in the previous year.Currently, just 62% of people in Latin America use the internet, and only 38% shop online. Those figures should trend upwards in the coming years, supercharging the e-commerce and digital payments industries. As the leader in both spaces, MercadoLibre should benefit greatly from that tailwind. And with shares trading at eight times sales -- well below their three-year average of 15 times sales -- now looks like a great time to buy this potential stock-split stock.2.

In other words, bear markets take place about once every six years. And on average, these downturns have lasted 390 days, with the index falling 36% from its high.</p>\n<p>Here's the good news: Over the same period, the typical bull market has run for 2,100 days, sending the index up 192%. Put another way, bull markets tend to erase all losses and then some. That's why market downturns are often a buying opportunity.</p>\n<p>So how can you beat a market crash? First, don't panic sell. Remember that every past downturn has ended with the market hitting new highs. Second, have a game plan. Keep a watch list of stocks you plan to buy if prices plummet. For instance, <b>Nvidia</b> and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRM\">Salesforce</a>.com</b> are on my list. Here's why.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ca36c9b5ef5b57df19bc8d32ec089a2\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"496\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images</p>\n<p>1. Nvidia</p>\n<p>In 1999, Nvidia invented the graphics processing unit, a semiconductor designed to process data very quickly. Not surprisingly, these chips excel at compute-intensive tasks like analytics and artificial intelligence, and Nvidia's brand name has become synonymous with high-performance computing.</p>\n<p>To reinforce that advantage, Nvidia acquired networking specialist Mellanox last year. Since then, the two have collaborated to deliver a brand new chip: the data processing unit. This chip offloads networking tasks, freeing central processing units to run applications, which boosts data center performance and security.</p>\n<p>Of course, a new product is good for Nvidia's top line, but there's a bigger picture taking shape. As Nvidia's computing platform expands (i.e., <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> chip to two chips), the company can build more comprehensive solutions for its data center clients. For instance, the DGX SuperPOD&nbsp;combines Nvidia GPUs and DPUs into a single supercomputer, delivering a turnkey solution for enterprise AI.</p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, Nvidia has reported impressive financial results in recent years.</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n  <tr>\n   <th><p>Metric</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q1 2018 (TTM)</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q1 2022 (TTM)</p></th>\n   <th><p>CAGR</p></th>\n  </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Revenue</p></td>\n   <td><p>$7.5 billion</p></td>\n   <td><p>$19.3 billion</p></td>\n   <td><p>27%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Free cash flow</p></td>\n   <td><p>$1.5 billion</p></td>\n   <td><p>$5.5 billion</p></td>\n   <td><p>38%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Looking ahead, I think Nvidia can maintain this momentum. In April, the company unveiled the Grace CPU, once again extending its computing platform. This new data center chip will launch in 2023, featuring energy efficient ARM cores. More importantly, it will deliver 10 times the performance of today's fastest servers, helping clients tackle complex AI workloads.</p>\n<p>Here's the bottom line: Artificial intelligence is one of the most transformative technologies ever invented by the human race, and it will reshape the world in the years ahead. More to the point, Nvidia values the data center market at $100 billion&nbsp;by 2024. And as the industry leader, it's well positioned to capitalize on that opportunity. That's why this growth stock looks like a smart investment, especially if a market crash slashes the share price.</p>\n<p>2. Salesforce</p>\n<p>Salesforce specializes in customer relationship management.

In other words, bear markets take place about once every six years. And on average, these downturns have lasted 390 days, with the index falling 36% from its high.\nHere's the good news: Over the same period, the typical bull market has run for 2,100 days, sending the index up 192%. Put another way, bull markets tend to erase all losses and then some. That's why market downturns are often a buying opportunity.\nSo how can you beat a market crash? First, don't panic sell. Remember that every past downturn has ended with the market hitting new highs. Second, have a game plan. Keep a watch list of stocks you plan to buy if prices plummet. For instance, Nvidia and Salesforce.com are on my list. Here's why.\n\nImage source: Getty Images\n1. Nvidia\nIn 1999, Nvidia invented the graphics processing unit, a semiconductor designed to process data very quickly. Not surprisingly, these chips excel at compute-intensive tasks like analytics and artificial intelligence, and Nvidia's brand name has become synonymous with high-performance computing.\nTo reinforce that advantage, Nvidia acquired networking specialist Mellanox last year. Since then, the two have collaborated to deliver a brand new chip: the data processing unit. This chip offloads networking tasks, freeing central processing units to run applications, which boosts data center performance and security.\nOf course, a new product is good for Nvidia's top line, but there's a bigger picture taking shape. As Nvidia's computing platform expands (i.e., one chip to two chips), the company can build more comprehensive solutions for its data center clients. For instance, the DGX SuperPOD combines Nvidia GPUs and DPUs into a single supercomputer, delivering a turnkey solution for enterprise AI.\nNot surprisingly, Nvidia has reported impressive financial results in recent years.\n\n\n\nMetric\nQ1 2018 (TTM)\nQ1 2022 (TTM)\nCAGR\n\n\n\n\nRevenue\n$7.5 billion\n$19.3 billion\n27%\n\n\nFree cash flow\n$1.5 billion\n$5.5 billion\n38%\n\n\n\nLooking ahead, I think Nvidia can maintain this momentum. In April, the company unveiled the Grace CPU, once again extending its computing platform. This new data center chip will launch in 2023, featuring energy efficient ARM cores. More importantly, it will deliver 10 times the performance of today's fastest servers, helping clients tackle complex AI workloads.\nHere's the bottom line: Artificial intelligence is one of the most transformative technologies ever invented by the human race, and it will reshape the world in the years ahead. More to the point, Nvidia values the data center market at $100 billion by 2024. And as the industry leader, it's well positioned to capitalize on that opportunity. That's why this growth stock looks like a smart investment, especially if a market crash slashes the share price.\n2. Salesforce\nSalesforce specializes in customer relationship management.

This is not <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of those times. July's worst-performing names among the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> (SNPINDEX:^GSPC) constituents were <b>Las Vegas Sands</b> (NYSE:LVS), <b>Wynn Resorts</b> (NASDAQ:WYNN), <b>Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings</b> (NYSE:NCLH), and <b>Carnival Corporation</b> (NYSE:CCL). The commonality is clear. All are tourism plays, but more to the point right now, these companies have the most to lose if the recent increase in COVID-19 cases worsens. In this light, last month's steep sell-offs make a lot of sense.</p>\n<p>Veteran investors know the time to step into quality stocks is when they've been needlessly beaten down, but sometimes, stocks are upended for all the right reasons. It's not always easy to determine which is which, and this is one of those tricky times.</p>\n<p>Too late to stop it now</p>\n<p>The sell-offs last month were steep. Carnival shares fell 17.9% with rival Norwegian Cruise Line seeing its shares slide 18.3%. Wynn Resorts stock fell 19.6%, matching the loss logged by Las Vegas Sands. In all four cases, the selling simply extended pullbacks that first started taking shape in June.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5f6d79db732cfe9fd24ea383f893ddc5\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"483\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Data by YCharts.</p>\n<p>Now, investors face a key question: Will the growing number of global coronavirus cases exact the same toll taken in 2020, the first time the pandemic swept across the world?</p>\n<p>Nobody really knows. From an odds-making perspective, though, it would be naive to believe something like the strict shutdowns we saw last year aren't a possibility if the situation continues to worsen.</p>\n<p>The official guidance thus far is more hopeful. On Aug. 1, Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said the U.S. will not suffer lockdowns again, even though he believes the pandemic will indeed get worse in the U.S. before improving. Moreover, consumers and corporations alike have learned to operate in a world where COVID-19 is a threat, and many of the millions of vaccinated Americans are ready to venture out and live life despite the risks of doing so.</p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<p>However, one should avoid assuming the U.S. response will match the worldwide reality. Within the past month, lockdowns have been mandated in Australia, China, Mexico, and Canada, while France and other European countries are raising the bar on who is allowed to travel to, from, and within the country.</p>\n<p>And that's just a small sampling. A wide swath of the world is establishing or reinstating measures meant to curb the spread of the coronavirus as the global number of reported COVID-19 cases appears to be climbing back toward highs seen earlier this year.</p>\n<p>Considering authorities must now deal with a highly contagious delta variant of the disease, lockdowns and other travel restrictions are a strong possibility in the remainder of 2021, and that is especially problematic for casino operators like Las Vegas Sands and Wynn and cruise lines like Carnival and Norwegian. Even a rapid, effective response in the U.S. could still leave these companies exposed to challenges in other regions of the world where they operate.</p>\n<p>Not permanent but no flash in the pan either</p>\n<p>So as it stands now, tourism and travel face a lot of near-term challenges.

This is not one of those times. July's worst-performing names among the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX:^GSPC) constituents were Las Vegas Sands (NYSE:LVS), Wynn Resorts (NASDAQ:WYNN), Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings (NYSE:NCLH), and Carnival Corporation (NYSE:CCL). The commonality is clear. All are tourism plays, but more to the point right now, these companies have the most to lose if the recent increase in COVID-19 cases worsens. In this light, last month's steep sell-offs make a lot of sense.\nVeteran investors know the time to step into quality stocks is when they've been needlessly beaten down, but sometimes, stocks are upended for all the right reasons. It's not always easy to determine which is which, and this is one of those tricky times.\nToo late to stop it now\nThe sell-offs last month were steep. Carnival shares fell 17.9% with rival Norwegian Cruise Line seeing its shares slide 18.3%. Wynn Resorts stock fell 19.6%, matching the loss logged by Las Vegas Sands. In all four cases, the selling simply extended pullbacks that first started taking shape in June.\n\nData by YCharts.\nNow, investors face a key question: Will the growing number of global coronavirus cases exact the same toll taken in 2020, the first time the pandemic swept across the world?\nNobody really knows. From an odds-making perspective, though, it would be naive to believe something like the strict shutdowns we saw last year aren't a possibility if the situation continues to worsen.\nThe official guidance thus far is more hopeful. On Aug. 1, Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said the U.S. will not suffer lockdowns again, even though he believes the pandemic will indeed get worse in the U.S. before improving. Moreover, consumers and corporations alike have learned to operate in a world where COVID-19 is a threat, and many of the millions of vaccinated Americans are ready to venture out and live life despite the risks of doing so.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nHowever, one should avoid assuming the U.S. response will match the worldwide reality. Within the past month, lockdowns have been mandated in Australia, China, Mexico, and Canada, while France and other European countries are raising the bar on who is allowed to travel to, from, and within the country.\nAnd that's just a small sampling. A wide swath of the world is establishing or reinstating measures meant to curb the spread of the coronavirus as the global number of reported COVID-19 cases appears to be climbing back toward highs seen earlier this year.\nConsidering authorities must now deal with a highly contagious delta variant of the disease, lockdowns and other travel restrictions are a strong possibility in the remainder of 2021, and that is especially problematic for casino operators like Las Vegas Sands and Wynn and cruise lines like Carnival and Norwegian. Even a rapid, effective response in the U.S. could still leave these companies exposed to challenges in other regions of the world where they operate.\nNot permanent but no flash in the pan either\nSo as it stands now, tourism and travel face a lot of near-term challenges. The full effects of the recent surge in cases may not be seen for months, and as shareholders in companies like Wynn and Carnival experienced in July, a lot of damage can happen to share prices in a short period of time.\nThe S&P 500's worst performers last month aren't bargains now as a result of their sell-offs. If anything, their declines are a sign of bigger issues that have yet to be resolved. Only true buy-and-hold investors should consider jumping into these stocks, and for the next few months, they should be prepared to stomach the continued volatility and growing uncertainty that lies ahead for this sector.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":457,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":804221305,"gmtCreate":1627959253607,"gmtModify":1703498622907,"author":{"id":"3561593321242476","authorId":"3561593321242476","name":"CharlesW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e2dd0db13607e6749ee804b823bf5b4","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"First Alibaba, Now Tencent.

And now that jabs from <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CAAS\">China</a> and Russia are facing newfound skepticism across Europe and the emerging world, Big Pharma is showing its true colors, and demanding a massive premium from all buyers of its jabs as Pfizer rolls out its first 'booster jabs'.</p>\n<p>It's interesting that they're raising prices, considering thatthe Pfizer jabhasn't exactlyheld up to the original promise of its efficacy.</p>\n<p>Despite their original promises not to profit off the vaccines until the pandemic had ended, both companies are now seizing the opportunity to hike prices charged to governments like those in the EU.</p>\n<p>According to the latest EU supply contracts seen by the FT, Pfizer raised the price of its COVID vaccine by more than 25% and Moderna raised its price by more than 10%. Both companies are expected to generate tens of billions of dollars in revenue this year as they sign new deals with countries anxious to secure supplies for potential booster shots.</p>\n<p>Perthe FT,the companies are raising prices now that Phase 3 trial data has showed that their mRNA jabs are more effective than the AstraZeneca and JNJ jabs. But let's not forget another important factor: that both the AstraZeneca and JNJ jabs have been linked to rare yet sometimes fatal blood clots that have made millions of people wary of taking the jabs. In Australia, for example, the AstraZeneca jab is much more available than the Pfizer jabs...but most patients would prefer to wait, despite the intense lockdowns imposed on the population.</p>\n<p>The new price for a Pfizer shot was €19.50 ($23) vs. €15.50 ($18) previously, according to the contracts seen by the FT.</p>\n<p>The insider who leaked the data to the FT said the pharmaceutical companies argued they deserved more money because their jabs offered increased \"value\" vs. competing vaccines.</p>\n<p>In reality, Big Pharma is just trying to do right by its shareholders as sales are expected to boom.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cb20962b05dd2a1a50089742b71bd99c\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"889\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">As the FT points out, the EU supply deal was struck at a difficult time for the EU. The AstraZeneca jab that public health leaders had hoped would be the workhorse of the global rollout had been damaged by scandal. The big pharma firms effectively had their government customers over a barrel. What's more, EU members were grousing about \"unfair\" distribution of shots that left some countries short on jabs.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JE\">Just</a> last week, Pfizer last week raised its guidance for annual vaccine revenue by nearly <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-third to $33.5 billion, after sales of the shot helped almost double sales in the second quarter.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b4fabb71aac47f3f630bde49b1c1c8b\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"937\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Fortunately for shareholders, sales to high-income countries likely won't be slowing any time soon as governments prepare to start inoculating minors, and booster shots are being doled out already in Israel.</p>","source":"lsy1583725640930","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

And now that jabs from China and Russia are facing newfound skepticism across Europe and the emerging world, Big Pharma is showing its true colors, and demanding a massive premium from all buyers of its jabs as Pfizer rolls out its first 'booster jabs'.\nIt's interesting that they're raising prices, considering thatthe Pfizer jabhasn't exactlyheld up to the original promise of its efficacy.\nDespite their original promises not to profit off the vaccines until the pandemic had ended, both companies are now seizing the opportunity to hike prices charged to governments like those in the EU.\nAccording to the latest EU supply contracts seen by the FT, Pfizer raised the price of its COVID vaccine by more than 25% and Moderna raised its price by more than 10%. Both companies are expected to generate tens of billions of dollars in revenue this year as they sign new deals with countries anxious to secure supplies for potential booster shots.\nPerthe FT,the companies are raising prices now that Phase 3 trial data has showed that their mRNA jabs are more effective than the AstraZeneca and JNJ jabs. But let's not forget another important factor: that both the AstraZeneca and JNJ jabs have been linked to rare yet sometimes fatal blood clots that have made millions of people wary of taking the jabs. In Australia, for example, the AstraZeneca jab is much more available than the Pfizer jabs...but most patients would prefer to wait, despite the intense lockdowns imposed on the population.\nThe new price for a Pfizer shot was €19.50 ($23) vs. €15.50 ($18) previously, according to the contracts seen by the FT.\nThe insider who leaked the data to the FT said the pharmaceutical companies argued they deserved more money because their jabs offered increased \"value\" vs. competing vaccines.\nIn reality, Big Pharma is just trying to do right by its shareholders as sales are expected to boom.\nAs the FT points out, the EU supply deal was struck at a difficult time for the EU. The AstraZeneca jab that public health leaders had hoped would be the workhorse of the global rollout had been damaged by scandal. The big pharma firms effectively had their government customers over a barrel. What's more, EU members were grousing about \"unfair\" distribution of shots that left some countries short on jabs.\nJust last week, Pfizer last week raised its guidance for annual vaccine revenue by nearly one-third to $33.5 billion, after sales of the shot helped almost double sales in the second quarter.\n\nFortunately for shareholders, sales to high-income countries likely won't be slowing any time soon as governments prepare to start inoculating minors, and booster shots are being doled out already in Israel.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":348,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":808406085,"gmtCreate":1627604455147,"gmtModify":1703493117714,"author":{"id":"3561593321242476","authorId":"3561593321242476","name":"CharlesW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e2dd0db13607e6749ee804b823bf5b4","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Some counters&nbsp;profit taking with&nbsp;the good quarterly results.&nbsp;","listText":"Some counters&nbsp;profit taking with&nbsp;the good quarterly results.&nbsp;","text":"Some counters profit taking with the good quarterly results.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/808406085","repostId":"2155184148","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2155184148","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1627600545,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2155184148?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-30 07:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall St gains with upbeat earnings and forecasts","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2155184148","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK, July 29 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks ended higher on Thursday, boosted by robust U.S. earnings ","content":"<p>NEW YORK, July 29 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks ended higher on Thursday, boosted by robust U.S. earnings and forecasts, while data showed the economy recovered to pre-pandemic levels in the second quarter.</p>\n<p>The U.S. economy grew solidly in the second quarter, putting the level of gross domestic product above its pre-pandemic peak, but the pace of GDP growth was slower than economists had expected.</p>\n<p>Among the latest upbeat earnings news, shares of Ford Motor Co jumped 3.8% as the company lifted its profit forecast for the year, while KFC owner Yum Brands Inc rose 6.3% after it beat expectations for quarterly sales.</p>\n<p>The day's lower than expected economic data may have calmed a bit of investor angst that the Federal Reserve's \"easy money policy\" may be going away soon, said Peter Tuz, president of Chase Investment Counsel in Charlottesville, Virginia.

These stocks look like good picks either way.","content":"<p>Rising COVID-19 cases. Concerns about the highly contagious delta variant. The possibility of another housing bubble bursting. These are some of the reasons why worries are increasing among investors that a stock market crash could be on the way.</p>\n<p>One of the biggest stock market bears, Harry Dent Jr., who predicted the dot.com bubble collapsing, even thinks that a market meltdown is likely within the next three months. Is all of the pessimism warranted? Maybe, maybe not.</p>\n<p>If you're leery about what's around the corner, here are three stocks to buy if a market crash is coming soon. And the great news about these stocks is that they're solid picks even if it doesn't happen.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3105d12ec8b203883b5e91a709172e8b\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"514\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GTY\">Getty</a> Images.</p>\n<h3>BioNTech</h3>\n<p>I personally don't think a stock market crash is just around the corner. If <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> is, though, I suspect the cause will be the combination of the COVID-19 pandemic and sky-high market valuations. Assuming I'm right,&nbsp;<b>BioNTech</b> (NASDAQ:BNTX) should soar if the market crashes.</p>\n<p>A massive market sell-off due to COVID-19 worries would almost certainly light a fire beneath the stocks of the leading vaccine makers. My view is that BioNTech would be <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the biggest winners in the group.</p>\n<p>BioNTech and its partner <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PFE\">Pfizer</a></b> (NYSE:PFE) are already moving forward with plans to test a vaccine that specifically targets the delta variant. That gives the companies a head start. BioNTech is by far the smallest of the companies with COVID-19 vaccines already on the market, which makes its shares more likely to jump higher on a positive catalyst. It's also easily the cheapest of these vaccine stocks, based on forward earnings multiples.</p>\n<p>What if there isn't an imminent market crash? BioNTech is still set to rake in billions of dollars with sales of its COVID-19 vaccine. The company will almost certainly use its growing cash stockpile to invest in expanding its pipeline. I think that BioNTech will be a winner over the long term, regardless of what happens over the short term.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DG\">Dollar General</a></h3>\n<p>I've maintained for a long time that&nbsp;<b>Dollar <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BGC\">General</a></b> (NYSE:DG) is one of the best stocks to own during a market downturn. That view seemed to be confirmed during the big market meltdown last year.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b0e75aa27d2d22b4296c80687da5be97\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"449\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>DG data by YCharts.</p>\n<p>Shares of Dollar General fell at first, but not nearly as much as most stocks did. Dollar General stock also rebounded much more quickly and trounced the overall market's return throughout the rest of the year.</p>\n<p>During uncertain times, consumers tighten their purse strings. That makes discount retailers such as Dollar General more attractive than ever.</p>\n<p>Even when the overall market performs well, though, Dollar General should still be able to grow. As a case in point, the company's shares delivered more than double the gain that the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> index did in the five years leading up to 2020 when the market was roaring.</p>\n<p>I think that Dollar General will be able to continue to beat the market. It's moving forward with an aggressive expansion strategy. The company is also undertaking a major initiative to \"establish itself as a health destination.\" While Dollar General didn't provide many details on exactly what its plans are, moving more into healthcare sounds like a smart move to me.</p>\n<h3>Viatris</h3>\n<p>There are at least two reasons why a given stock might hold up well during a big market sell-off. One is that its underlying business isn't impacted much by the reason behind the broader plunge. Another is that the stock is so cheap that investors scoop up shares if it falls much below its existing price. My take is that&nbsp;<b>Viatris</b> (NASDAQ:VTRS) qualifies on both of these criteria.</p>\n<p>Viatris specializes in biosimilars and generic drugs. Patients need these drugs, regardless of what the stock market does. The drugs are also less expensive than branded prescription drugs.</p>\n<p>The stock is irrefutably dirt cheap. Viatris' shares trade at a little over four times expected earnings.

Concerns about the highly contagious delta variant. The possibility of another housing bubble bursting. These are some of the reasons why worries are increasing among investors that a stock market crash could be on the way.\nOne of the biggest stock market bears, Harry Dent Jr., who predicted the dot.com bubble collapsing, even thinks that a market meltdown is likely within the next three months. Is all of the pessimism warranted? Maybe, maybe not.\nIf you're leery about what's around the corner, here are three stocks to buy if a market crash is coming soon. And the great news about these stocks is that they're solid picks even if it doesn't happen.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nBioNTech\nI personally don't think a stock market crash is just around the corner. If one is, though, I suspect the cause will be the combination of the COVID-19 pandemic and sky-high market valuations. Assuming I'm right, BioNTech (NASDAQ:BNTX) should soar if the market crashes.\nA massive market sell-off due to COVID-19 worries would almost certainly light a fire beneath the stocks of the leading vaccine makers. My view is that BioNTech would be one of the biggest winners in the group.\nBioNTech and its partner Pfizer (NYSE:PFE) are already moving forward with plans to test a vaccine that specifically targets the delta variant. That gives the companies a head start. BioNTech is by far the smallest of the companies with COVID-19 vaccines already on the market, which makes its shares more likely to jump higher on a positive catalyst. It's also easily the cheapest of these vaccine stocks, based on forward earnings multiples.\nWhat if there isn't an imminent market crash? BioNTech is still set to rake in billions of dollars with sales of its COVID-19 vaccine. The company will almost certainly use its growing cash stockpile to invest in expanding its pipeline. I think that BioNTech will be a winner over the long term, regardless of what happens over the short term.\nDollar General\nI've maintained for a long time that Dollar General (NYSE:DG) is one of the best stocks to own during a market downturn. That view seemed to be confirmed during the big market meltdown last year.\n\nDG data by YCharts.\nShares of Dollar General fell at first, but not nearly as much as most stocks did. Dollar General stock also rebounded much more quickly and trounced the overall market's return throughout the rest of the year.\nDuring uncertain times, consumers tighten their purse strings. That makes discount retailers such as Dollar General more attractive than ever.\nEven when the overall market performs well, though, Dollar General should still be able to grow. As a case in point, the company's shares delivered more than double the gain that the S&P 500 index did in the five years leading up to 2020 when the market was roaring.\nI think that Dollar General will be able to continue to beat the market. It's moving forward with an aggressive expansion strategy. The company is also undertaking a major initiative to \"establish itself as a health destination.\" While Dollar General didn't provide many details on exactly what its plans are, moving more into healthcare sounds like a smart move to me.\nViatris\nThere are at least two reasons why a given stock might hold up well during a big market sell-off. One is that its underlying business isn't impacted much by the reason behind the broader plunge. Another is that the stock is so cheap that investors scoop up shares if it falls much below its existing price. My take is that Viatris (NASDAQ:VTRS) qualifies on both of these criteria.\nViatris specializes in biosimilars and generic drugs. Patients need these drugs, regardless of what the stock market does. The drugs are also less expensive than branded prescription drugs.\nThe stock is irrefutably dirt cheap. Viatris' shares trade at a little over four times expected earnings. It's unlikely that the stock is going to move much lower because it would simply be too much of a steal for investors to ignore.\nGranted, Viatris probably won't keep up with the overall stock market's performance if the current uptrend continues. However, the company's dividend is attractive. And over the next several years, Viatris should achieve synergies resulting from the merger of Pfizer's Upjohn unit and Mylan, as well as launch new products that should drive growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":422,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":179489147,"gmtCreate":1626571370489,"gmtModify":1703761801764,"author":{"id":"3561593321242476","authorId":"3561593321242476","name":"CharlesW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e2dd0db13607e6749ee804b823bf5b4","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Need to have warchest in order to add","listText":"Need to have warchest in order to add","text":"Need to have warchest in order to add","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/179489147","repostId":"2152899486","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2152899486","pubTimestamp":1626530220,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2152899486?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-17 21:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Moves You'll Sorely Regret in a Stock Market Crash","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2152899486","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"A market downturn could happen when you least expect it.
