American Express Co rose 1.9% on strong earnings and an increased revenue forecast.Volume on U.S. exchanges was 10.38 billion shares, compared with the 11.53 billion average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.Declining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 1.43-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 2.49-to-1 ratio favored decliners.The S&P 500 posted 1 new 52-week highs and 31 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 32 new highs and 74 new lows.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":209,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9042519463,"gmtCreate":1656496869152,"gmtModify":1676535840566,"author":{"id":"3569050312475646","authorId":"3569050312475646","name":"ngmi","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/3bb7d5072829d6e17a3bc0699597c5e7","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"ko//<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/U/3585042599146244\">@plasticbag</a>:Ok","listText":"ko//<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/U/3585042599146244\">@plasticbag</a>:Ok","text":"ko//@plasticbag:Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9042519463","repostId":"2247096749","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2247096749","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1656496519,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2247096749?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-06-29 17:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Bitcoin's Next Headwind: Struggling Crypto Miners","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2247096749","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"By Joe Light \n\n\n     The plummeting price of Bitcoin could force crypto miners to sell the tokens to","content":"<font class=\"NormalMinus1\" face=\"Arial\">\n<pre>\nBy Joe Light \n</pre>\n<p>\n     The plummeting price of Bitcoin could force crypto miners to sell the tokens to fund operations, further pressuring the digital currency. \n</p>\n<p>\n     In good times, crypto mining firms and Bitcoin's price are locked in a virtuous cycle. \n</p>\n<p>\n     The miners own giant warehouses filled with specialized equipment that keep Bitcoin transactions humming and are rewarded more Bitcoin for the work.

However, in the longer run, as sentiment changes, if the average investor continues to let price determine the stock&#39;s narrative, this can cause the average investor to panic sell their shares in Sea Limited as the stock has dropped more than 70% from its all-time highs. As such, in the long run, the stock market is like a weighing machine that evaluates and measures the fundamentals of the company.</p><p>I would argue that this is the time to be buying Sea Limited rather than let the fear or the price action determine your investment decisions.</p><h2>Investment Thesis</h2><p>I have written elaborate articles on Sea both as an initiation article as well as follow up articles (here and here) as the market moves. With everything that is happening at Sea, my initial investment thesis for Sea still stands, as shown below:</p><p>1. Garena, will continue to be a market leader and serve as a cash cow for Sea, along with solid growth from not just Free Fire but also other budding new developments from its many gaming studios.</p><p>2. Undoubtedly, Sea&#39;s Shopee has the leadership position in Southeast Asia e-commerce. It is currently still in the early days in Southeast Asia for Shopee and it is likely to see strong growth in the future from increasing penetration in the region brought about by multiple tailwinds.</p><p>3. Sea&#39;s market expansion strategy has shown very strong discipline, with a focus on Latin America (LatAm) e-commerce market, which brings exposure to an underpenetrated, fast-growing market. It is also newer and testing waters in some newer geographies in Europe for example.</p><p>4. Sea&#39;s new emerging fintech business, SeaMoney, will bring additional high growth areas with strong digital payments tailwinds.</p><h2>Laser-Focused On Free Cash Flows And Capital Preservation</h2><p>Shopee, which is Sea&#39;s e-commerce arm, Shopee, made 2 announcements barely a month apart about its decision to exit from France and India. The 2 exits in 1 month clearly sank sentiment on the stock as it reduces the potential total addressable market for Sea and these 2 markets are not insignificant.</p><p>However, I am of the view that Sea&#39;s Shopee needs to pick the right battles and show investors that they are prudent with capital and making the right management decisions. As such, I think that the exit from France, and then India, is a blessing in disguise for Shopee as it saves the company and its shareholders the trouble of significant cash burn in highly competitive e-commerce markets in India and France, while being able to reallocate these precious financial resources and time to other markets in which Shopee is able to execute well, gain dominance and ultimately, generate free cash flows and profits.</p><p>Given that the combined GMV of these 2 markets are minimal at 0.3% of total GMV for the Sea Group, this early withdrawal from these 2 markets barely has an impact on current financials of the company due to the early stage trials that Shopee was doing in these markets.</p><p>For the exit from India, this comes at a time of heightened regulatory scrutiny for Sea given Sea&#39;s Free Fire ban in India. As such, given the highly competitive e-commerce market in India and the huge size of the India e-commerce market which implies needing much more capital spending for GMV growth, it is wise for management to exit India to focus on conserving capital for where it would make more sense. For the exit from France, this came as Shopee management found that customer acquisition costs were too high and Shopee could not compete meaningfully in the market, resulting in a prompt decision from management to exit France.</p><p>With the 2 decisions made to exit France and India, I am not expecting Sea to be entering any new markets this year or in the near term, as it will be focusing on its core ASEAN and Taiwan markets and its new focus, Brazil and Latin America markets.</p><h2>Encouraging Trends In Brazil And Latin America For Shopee</h2><p>We are starting to see the results from Shopee&#39;s foray into Brazil and Latin America. As can be seen below, when looking at monthly active users, Shopee has outperformed in this metric compared to all other peers since March of 2021. I attribute this to Shopee gamifying the e-commerce experience, luring customers to return to the Shopee app, thus creating top mind share and, possible market share as well, in Brazil in such a span of slightly more than 2 years.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f856157084170e251a60a39175838bb7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"385\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Brazil e-commerce: Monthly active users (million) (Sensor <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWR.AU\">Tower</a>)</p><p>In Colombia, Shopee is already doing in-line or better than the international e-commerce players in the country by relative search index sources.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3d29b69ed14f44e2efffb15323b85041\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"400\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Relative search interest in Colombia (Google Trends)</p><p>While Chile remains in the relatively early stages of development, the relative search index shows that momentum is growing in the country only after almost less than a year of Shopee operating in the country.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dc8edd690b7e883a2e7d065e4e5376d9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"401\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Relative Search Index for Chile (Google Trends)</p><p>With improving metrics for Shopee in these LatAm regions, it would make more sense for Shopee to be redirecting its capital preserved from the India and France exit to focus on the opportunities in LatAm given the easier competitive and regulatory environment in the LatAm region.</p><p>In my view, the strategy Shopee takes in Brazil will be similar to its playbook in ASEAN and Taiwan, where it initially strives to gain mindshare and later, market share in the region, and emerge as a leader in the market based on its volumes and scale, which will then bring about the visibility of turning profitable in the region as it looks to reduce logistics costs over the large scale it has amassed.</p><p>Furthermore, Sea recently launched in Brazil the Shopee Live feature, which is basically the live-streaming feature. Live e-commerce is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the key e-commerce trends in the near term and I am of the opinion that Shopee can create an early advantage over its peers in the live e-commerce segment in LatAm. One key competitor that is currently having a similar live shopping feature is Magazine Luiza, where it offers exclusive discounts during live streaming. Specifically for the live-streaming feature on Shopee Live, this includes live broadcasts during which exclusive coupons are given, or use of guest stars and influencers as live presenters for Shopee Live to drive traffic.</p><p>The Shopee Live feature in Brazil can add a new dimension to the Shopee platform that complements the current e-commerce shopping experience and it also helps Shopee to engage its customers more directly through live-streaming and at the same time provide customers with a value add which is to have a sense of security as the product is reviewed by live streamers.</p><h3>Shopee ASEAN + Taiwan Turning Profitable With Scale</h3><p>Inflation is working in favour of Shopee, in my view. While inflation is affecting major e-commerce players in the form of higher logistics costs from rising cost of labour and fuel, Shopee&#39;s marketplace business model enables it to feel less of the inflation effect. This is in contrast to the 1P competitors that have to actually take on inventory. In addition, I think we will see Shopee have an advantage in the current environment given their focus on mass market and average order value categories, as it is in a good position when customers decide to trade down. In contrast, Sea&#39;s competitor in the region, Alibaba-owned (BABA) Lazada has a focus on higher order value items and premium items, which will be in a tougher position in the current environment.</p><p>Despite challenges from inflation and also potential increasing competition, I still expect that for the core region of ASEAN + Taiwan, we will see Shopee achieving its breakeven target in 2022. While Shopee is focusing on achieving this breakeven target, my channel checks have found that Shopee has managed to outgrow its competitors and maintain the market share it needs, while spending less on a per order basis. In my view, market share is key in e-commerce to ensure favourable unit economics to make the business model work. Further channel checks that have been done shows that Shopee is currently about 5x to 6x larger and 2x to 3x larger than competitors in terms of volumes in Taiwan and ASEAN respectively. As can be seen below, even with reduced spend per user, the monthly active users in the core ASEAN + Taiwan region is not just steady but continuing to grow.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30b8b1d6c599c34d0744929879160580\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"383\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Shopee (ASEAN + Taiwan) monthly active users (million) (Sensor Tower)</p><h2>Gaming Fears Has Been Priced In</h2><p>I have discussed the Free Fire ban in India several times in my previous articles on Sea (Found here and here). Although the Singapore government has taken efforts to talk with the Indian government about the ban of Free Fire in India, there is uncertainty about the potential return of the game in India.</p><p>However, I am of the opinion that the Free Fire ban has long been priced in given that the 2022F gaming guidance implies a 35% year over year drop in bookings and this guidance has already excluded all contributions from India.</p><p>There are also concerns about the impact of reopening of economies on Garena as the world economies reopen and normalise. While normalised user behaviour needs to be observed in the near term for any further weakness, management continues to improve the user experience and refresh content</p><h2>SeaMoney</h2><p>For Sea&#39;s financial services arm, SeaMoney, I think we will see the company continue to ramp up on verticals in non-payments like credit, insurance tech, and wealth management. Currently, SeaMoney is most comprehensive in Indonesia and could be rolled out to the Philippines in 2022.</p><p>Shopee Malaysia recently got the digital banking license in Malaysia, along with 4 other consortiums, opening up new opportunities for SeaMoney Malaysia. Furthermore, Shopee Brazil recently received approval as a payment institution in Brazil, paving the way for SeaMoney in the crucial LatAm market.</p><h2>Valuation</h2><p>My worst case SOTP valuation is updated with the latest information on the company, which includes:</p><ol><li>The impact of lower revenue guidance on gaming resulting in some downward revisions in gaming,</li><li>I assume the reallocation of Shopee&#39;s resources and capital expenditures from India and France to LatAm and ASEA and Taiwan, resulting in largely in-line e-commerce projections</li><li>With the new opportunities in Malaysia and Brazil for SeaMoney, I have made upward revisions on SeaMoney.</li></ol><p>With that the updated target price for Sea Limited is $188.25, implying 109% upside from current levels.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3f135db17b0a51d1121959ee77598fee\" tg-width=\"389\" tg-height=\"457\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>SOTP valuation for Sea Limited (Author generated)</p><h2>Risks</h2><h3>Competition</h3><p>Although Sea has exited the highly competitive market of India, e-commerce is still a competitive business with many competitors with deep pockets. As such Shopee could face fierce competition from global peers as international expansion in the industry continues. For example, Shopee has done well in Southeast Asia but the threat of Tokopedia in Indonesia is still there. Furthermore, Alibaba&#39;s Lazada is ramping up and focusing on international expansion as China&#39;s domestic e-commerce market slows. If competition intensifies, this could be a significant drag to profitability of the e-commerce segment.</p><h3>Execution In New Markets</h3><p>The operating and competitive environment in LatAm, and Europe has its challenges. Although Shopee has had a good run in Southeast Asia, there are still execution risks in these new markets especially with large domestic e-commerce players already present. That said, Shopee has shown strong execution and capital discipline thus far, and will only commit capital to a market it deems core.</p><h3>Synergies In All 3 Business Segments</h3><p>The flywheel effect could prove to be Sea&#39;s competitive advantage if it is able to build its gaming, e-commerce and fintech ecosystem well. However, if synergies between the 3 are not reaped, the company is not maximising the benefit of its entire ecosystem and should each segment operate increasingly in silos, this could result in deterioration of competitive advantage of Sea.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>To bring back the Benjamin Graham quote from earlier, in the short term, the stock market is like a voting machine, highly driven by sentiment and emotions. This is what is driving Sea Limited&#39;s stock price right now with the more than 70% decline from all-time highs. However, as highlighted, the business fundamentals are actually solid and improving. Sea&#39;s Shopee is soon to achieve its breakeven target in ASEAN + Taiwan as it continues to maintain and gain market share, while Shopee is growing rapidly and becoming dominant in LatAm, specifically in Brazil. While uncertainties remain on the gaming front, as I mentioned, I believe that this has already been priced in. Lastly, SeaMoney is seeing multiple opportunities open up in Sea&#39;s core markets and will likely gain greater traction this year.</p><p>As such, with the improving fundamentals, the astute investor would take the chance to invest in a company that is a winner in the fast-growing gaming, e-commerce and digital financial services in Asia and LatAm. With that, my SOTP target price for Sea is $188.25, implying 109% upside from current levels.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","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>Sea Limited: The Astute Investor Buys When The Average Investor Sells</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\">\nSea Limited: The Astute Investor Buys When The Average Investor Sells\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-05-06 10:01 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4507258-sea-limited-the-astute-investor-buys-when-the-average-investor-sells><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Benjamin Graham, the father of value investing, is famous for saying that the market is like a voting machine in the short run and in the long run, the market is like a weighing machine.I think that ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4507258-sea-limited-the-astute-investor-buys-when-the-average-investor-sells\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BK4526":"热门中概股","BK4504":"桥水持仓","BK4535":"淡马锡持仓","BK4548":"巴美列捷福持仓","BGNE":"百济神州","SE":"Sea Ltd","BK4505":"高瓴资本持仓"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4507258-sea-limited-the-astute-investor-buys-when-the-average-investor-sells","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2233184399","content_text":"Benjamin Graham, the father of value investing, is famous for saying that the market is like a voting machine in the short run and in the long run, the market is like a weighing machine.I think that this encapsulates what has happened with Sea Limited (NYSE:SE) very well as we have seen the stock rise more than 800% from its COVID lows to its all-time high, as sentiment was positive and investors let the price determine the narrative of the stock in the short run. However, in the longer run, as sentiment changes, if the average investor continues to let price determine the stock's narrative, this can cause the average investor to panic sell their shares in Sea Limited as the stock has dropped more than 70% from its all-time highs. As such, in the long run, the stock market is like a weighing machine that evaluates and measures the fundamentals of the company.I would argue that this is the time to be buying Sea Limited rather than let the fear or the price action determine your investment decisions.Investment ThesisI have written elaborate articles on Sea both as an initiation article as well as follow up articles (here and here) as the market moves. With everything that is happening at Sea, my initial investment thesis for Sea still stands, as shown below:1. Garena, will continue to be a market leader and serve as a cash cow for Sea, along with solid growth from not just Free Fire but also other budding new developments from its many gaming studios.2. Undoubtedly, Sea's Shopee has the leadership position in Southeast Asia e-commerce. It is currently still in the early days in Southeast Asia for Shopee and it is likely to see strong growth in the future from increasing penetration in the region brought about by multiple tailwinds.3. Sea's market expansion strategy has shown very strong discipline, with a focus on Latin America (LatAm) e-commerce market, which brings exposure to an underpenetrated, fast-growing market. It is also newer and testing waters in some newer geographies in Europe for example.4. Sea's new emerging fintech business, SeaMoney, will bring additional high growth areas with strong digital payments tailwinds.Laser-Focused On Free Cash Flows And Capital PreservationShopee, which is Sea's e-commerce arm, Shopee, made 2 announcements barely a month apart about its decision to exit from France and India. The 2 exits in 1 month clearly sank sentiment on the stock as it reduces the potential total addressable market for Sea and these 2 markets are not insignificant.However, I am of the view that Sea's Shopee needs to pick the right battles and show investors that they are prudent with capital and making the right management decisions. As such, I think that the exit from France, and then India, is a blessing in disguise for Shopee as it saves the company and its shareholders the trouble of significant cash burn in highly competitive e-commerce markets in India and France, while being able to reallocate these precious financial resources and time to other markets in which Shopee is able to execute well, gain dominance and ultimately, generate free cash flows and profits.Given that the combined GMV of these 2 markets are minimal at 0.3% of total GMV for the Sea Group, this early withdrawal from these 2 markets barely has an impact on current financials of the company due to the early stage trials that Shopee was doing in these markets.For the exit from India, this comes at a time of heightened regulatory scrutiny for Sea given Sea's Free Fire ban in India. As such, given the highly competitive e-commerce market in India and the huge size of the India e-commerce market which implies needing much more capital spending for GMV growth, it is wise for management to exit India to focus on conserving capital for where it would make more sense. For the exit from France, this came as Shopee management found that customer acquisition costs were too high and Shopee could not compete meaningfully in the market, resulting in a prompt decision from management to exit France.With the 2 decisions made to exit France and India, I am not expecting Sea to be entering any new markets this year or in the near term, as it will be focusing on its core ASEAN and Taiwan markets and its new focus, Brazil and Latin America markets.Encouraging Trends In Brazil And Latin America For ShopeeWe are starting to see the results from Shopee's foray into Brazil and Latin America. As can be seen below, when looking at monthly active users, Shopee has outperformed in this metric compared to all other peers since March of 2021. I attribute this to Shopee gamifying the e-commerce experience, luring customers to return to the Shopee app, thus creating top mind share and, possible market share as well, in Brazil in such a span of slightly more than 2 years.Brazil e-commerce: Monthly active users (million) (Sensor Tower)In Colombia, Shopee is already doing in-line or better than the international e-commerce players in the country by relative search index sources.Relative search interest in Colombia (Google Trends)While Chile remains in the relatively early stages of development, the relative search index shows that momentum is growing in the country only after almost less than a year of Shopee operating in the country.Relative Search Index for Chile (Google Trends)With improving metrics for Shopee in these LatAm regions, it would make more sense for Shopee to be redirecting its capital preserved from the India and France exit to focus on the opportunities in LatAm given the easier competitive and regulatory environment in the LatAm region.In my view, the strategy Shopee takes in Brazil will be similar to its playbook in ASEAN and Taiwan, where it initially strives to gain mindshare and later, market share in the region, and emerge as a leader in the market based on its volumes and scale, which will then bring about the visibility of turning profitable in the region as it looks to reduce logistics costs over the large scale it has amassed.Furthermore, Sea recently launched in Brazil the Shopee Live feature, which is basically the live-streaming feature. Live e-commerce is one of the key e-commerce trends in the near term and I am of the opinion that Shopee can create an early advantage over its peers in the live e-commerce segment in LatAm. One key competitor that is currently having a similar live shopping feature is Magazine Luiza, where it offers exclusive discounts during live streaming. Specifically for the live-streaming feature on Shopee Live, this includes live broadcasts during which exclusive coupons are given, or use of guest stars and influencers as live presenters for Shopee Live to drive traffic.The Shopee Live feature in Brazil can add a new dimension to the Shopee platform that complements the current e-commerce shopping experience and it also helps Shopee to engage its customers more directly through live-streaming and at the same time provide customers with a value add which is to have a sense of security as the product is reviewed by live streamers.Shopee ASEAN + Taiwan Turning Profitable With ScaleInflation is working in favour of Shopee, in my view. While inflation is affecting major e-commerce players in the form of higher logistics costs from rising cost of labour and fuel, Shopee's marketplace business model enables it to feel less of the inflation effect. This is in contrast to the 1P competitors that have to actually take on inventory. In addition, I think we will see Shopee have an advantage in the current environment given their focus on mass market and average order value categories, as it is in a good position when customers decide to trade down. In contrast, Sea's competitor in the region, Alibaba-owned (BABA) Lazada has a focus on higher order value items and premium items, which will be in a tougher position in the current environment.Despite challenges from inflation and also potential increasing competition, I still expect that for the core region of ASEAN + Taiwan, we will see Shopee achieving its breakeven target in 2022. While Shopee is focusing on achieving this breakeven target, my channel checks have found that Shopee has managed to outgrow its competitors and maintain the market share it needs, while spending less on a per order basis. In my view, market share is key in e-commerce to ensure favourable unit economics to make the business model work. Further channel checks that have been done shows that Shopee is currently about 5x to 6x larger and 2x to 3x larger than competitors in terms of volumes in Taiwan and ASEAN respectively.

The stock opened on Monday at $74.98 and rose to as high as $75 on Tuesday before it began to plummet. It sunk to a new 52-week low of $56.80 in the early afternoon on Thursday.</p><h2>So what</h2><p>It&#39;s becoming clear that Novavax is falling behind its peers in its ongoing efforts to get an Emergency Use Authorization (EAU) for its COVID-19 vaccine to be used as a booster shot in the U.S.</p><p>On March 29, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) amended the EUAs for the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines produced by <b>Moderna</b> and the <b>Pfizer</b>-<b>BioNTech </b>partnership to allow second booster shots to be given to individuals 50 and over and to people who are immunocompromised.</p><p>Novavax&#39;s vaccine, NVX-CoV2373, is protein-based, not mRNA-based, and has been approved already in 35 countries, including Australia, Canada, Great Britain, and all of the members of the European Union -- but not in the U.S. The concern among investors is that by the time Novavax does get U.S. approval for its vaccine, the potential market for the shot here will have shrunk considerably.</p><p>Part of the problem is that Novavax didn&#39;t complete its U.S. EAU request until Jan. 31. Given the delays that have stalled its vaccine approval here, it may be too late to catch up.</p><h2>Now what</h2><p>It&#39;s not all bad news. The company sold plenty of vaccines elsewhere. Last year, thanks mostly to its COVID-19 vaccine, the company reported sales of $1.1 billion, up from $476 million in 2020. However, its sales in the fourth quarter slowed year over year to $222 million compared to $280 million in the prior-year period.

The stock opened on Monday at $74.98 and rose to as high as $75 on Tuesday before it began to plummet. It sunk to a new 52-week low of $56.80 in the early afternoon on Thursday.So whatIt's becoming clear that Novavax is falling behind its peers in its ongoing efforts to get an Emergency Use Authorization (EAU) for its COVID-19 vaccine to be used as a booster shot in the U.S.On March 29, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) amended the EUAs for the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines produced by Moderna and the Pfizer-BioNTech partnership to allow second booster shots to be given to individuals 50 and over and to people who are immunocompromised.Novavax's vaccine, NVX-CoV2373, is protein-based, not mRNA-based, and has been approved already in 35 countries, including Australia, Canada, Great Britain, and all of the members of the European Union -- but not in the U.S. The concern among investors is that by the time Novavax does get U.S. approval for its vaccine, the potential market for the shot here will have shrunk considerably.Part of the problem is that Novavax didn't complete its U.S. EAU request until Jan. 31. Given the delays that have stalled its vaccine approval here, it may be too late to catch up.Now whatIt's not all bad news. The company sold plenty of vaccines elsewhere. Last year, thanks mostly to its COVID-19 vaccine, the company reported sales of $1.1 billion, up from $476 million in 2020. However, its sales in the fourth quarter slowed year over year to $222 million compared to $280 million in the prior-year period. For the year, the company had a net loss of $1.7 billion compared to a loss of $418 million in 2020. In Q4, it reported a loss of $846 million, compared to a loss of $178 million in the same period in 2020.Management says it expects the biotech company to finally turn things around this year, guiding for 2022 revenue in the $4 billion to $5 billion range.Based on management's outlook, the stock is trading at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 2.78, so if it hits its targets, investors should look back on today's share prices as a great bargain.

Aside from providing entertainment, these virtual worlds represents brand-new ecosystems that can be monetized in a variety of ways. In addition to payments within these virtual landscapes, there&#39;s the processing, storage, latency, digital identity/verification, and so on, that needs to be addressed to make the metaverse work.</p><p>The estimated market value of the metaverse varies wildly.

Even though Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella isn&#39;t entirely certain what the definition of &#34;metaverse&#34; will pertain to, he does believe it&#39;ll represent a &#34;collection of communities and individual identities anchored in strong content franchises accessible on every device.&#34;</p><p>Secondly, Microsoft&#39;sroots to the metaverse were planted well ahead of the Activision Blizzard buyout announcement. As an example, Microsoft has been developing mixed-reality headsets for more than a half-decade. It&#39;s currently working on the third generation of its HoloLens headset, which, according to TheVerge.com, may be used by the U.S. Army for life-like mixed reality training.  With mixed reality and virtual reality headsets being the initial gateway to the metaverse, Microsoft looks to be one of the few companies in position to thrive.</p><p>The third catalyst is simply Microsoft&#39;senormous operating cash flow. Thanks to rapid growth from cloud infrastructure service Azure, and exceptionally high margins and stable demand from its Windows and Office franchises, Microsoft brought in $83.9 billion in operating cash flow over the trailing 12 months. This gives the company an abundance of capital, and quite the buffer, to invest aggressively in the metaverse.</p><p><b>The second metaverse stock to buy hand over fist: Fastly</b></p><p>For investors with a considerably stronger stomach for risk (and reward),<b>Fastly</b> is the second metaverse stock that can be bought hand over fist.</p><p>The metaverse is going to take many years to develop, which means there are a number of moving parts that extend well beyond mixed reality and virtual reality headsets. Fastly is one of the better-known content delivery networks (CDNs). It&#39;s responsible for delivering content from the edge of the cloud to its destination as quickly and securely as possible. In other words, its task within the metaverse will be to reduce latency. When an action is taken within a virtual environment, Fastly will ensure there&#39;s as little delay as possible in processing that action.</p><p>We&#39;ve already witnessed plenty of evidence that Fastly&#39;s CDN is a popular and trusted solution. Over the past year, the company&#39;s total customer count rose to more than 2,800 from less than 2,400, while the number of enterprise customers jumped to 445 from around 380. This latter increase is particularly important, as it demonstrates enterprise clients have looked past a network outage in June 2021.</p><p>Additionally, Fastly&#39;s dollar-based net expansion rate of 121% in the fourth quarter of 2021 signals that its existing customers are increasing their spending (in this case by 21% from the prior-year period). That&#39;s good news for Fastly&#39;s usage-based platform.</p><p>What investors have to be mindful of areFastly&#39;s near-term losses, which have consistently come in larger than expected.

First, it's the most-popular platform to buy and sell digital currencies -- and blockchain-tethered tokens have proved essential in the early stages of the metaverse.Secondly, Coinbase sees itself as providing \"an identity on-ramp into the metaverse.\" Similar to Nadella's thinking, Coinbase believes the metaverse will be a collection of communities that'll be linked together.

My suspicion is we'll witness similar pricing competition in the cryptocurrency space, which will erode Coinbase's margins over time.The other substantial issue with Coinbase is that its trading platform is heavily reliant on Bitcoin and Ethereum. Unless this dynamic duo is consistently heading higher, interest in crypto investing tends to suffer through big ebbs and flows. The point being that the emotions of crypto investors, rather than Coinbase's innovation(s), are what's driving this company.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":299,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9038325099,"gmtCreate":1646748709527,"gmtModify":1676534157661,"author":{"id":"3569050312475646","authorId":"3569050312475646","name":"ngmi","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/3bb7d5072829d6e17a3bc0699597c5e7","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy only if you like losing money[Facepalm]&nbsp;","listText":"Buy only if you like losing money[Facepalm]&nbsp;","text":"Buy only if you like losing money[Facepalm]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9038325099","repostId":"2217100884","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2217100884","pubTimestamp":1646752884,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2217100884?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-03-08 23:21","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is Sea Limited Stock a Buy Now?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2217100884","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The company's key business segment could be losing steam.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Digital conglomerate <b>Sea Limited</b> (NYSE:SE) was one of the hottest stocks of 2020 and 2021, soaring from less than $40 per share before the pandemic to more than $350 at its peak in late 2021.

But one thing is certain: rising energy prices are going to make EVs even more interesting to prospective buyers than they were a few months ago.</p><p>The challenge has been deciding which EV makers to buy. I’m talking new EV makers here. Certainly, Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) remains a go-to electric vehicle (EV) stock for most investors wading into the sector.</p><p>But for my dollar, there are some newcomers that are doing very well and are finally coming down to prices – and market caps – that make them slightly more attractive.</p><h2>NIO Stock Is Still Getting Love</h2><p>I’ve written a fair amount of columns on EV stocks out there.

And it did.</p><p>But as things started to get overheated with all the pandemic stimulus money sloshing around, Wall Street knew the hot sectors with massive market caps and matching price-to-earnings (P/E) – if the stocks even had earnings for P/Es – was coming to an end.</p><p>Real companies with real earnings were back. And so were bonds. Stocks are no longer the only game in town.</p><h2>Blue Sky Coming</h2><p>For EV companies like NIO, that actually wasn’t such a bad thing. NIO has been making cars and selling them at a brisk clip. It delivered more than 91,000 vehicles last year.</p><p>And recently, the second largest U.S. pension fund bought NIO stock. That isn’t an aggressive hedge fund or tech-focused mutual fund. It’s a conservative hedge fund with more than $325 billion in assets.</p><p>Ironically, NIO vehicles aren’t even sold in the U.S. They’re a premium Chinese car company selling to the Chinese market, at least for now. By the way, its name translates to “blue sky coming,” which is pretty appropriate for where NIO stock is right now.</p><p>The status of fancy European and U.S. cars won’t hold much cache as the Chinese auto industry introduces its own vehicles that have comparable fit, finish, build and performance qualities.</p><p>What’s more, the Chinese government has a vested interest to see its burgeoning car makers succeed, especially the EVs.</p><p>Good EV companies are now on the shopping list of funds and institutions that are looking for ESG stocks. And that will keep NIO stock on plenty of lists.</p><h2>A Bad Year Is Good News</h2><p>In the past 12 months, NIO stock has lost almost 57%. It has lost 50% in the past three months.</p><p>Granted, it still has a $34 billion market cap. And it may have further to fall.</p><p>But at this point, it’s at a place where if you get in and it continues to lose ground, it will likely make it up in the next year or two.</p><p>That may sound like a bold statement given the surprises we continue to live through. But if things stay relatively sane, NIO stock is a decent long-term holding at this point. But you still might want to buy in one piece at a time.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1606302653667","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>NIO Is Entering Into a Whole New World</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\">\nNIO Is Entering Into a Whole New World\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-02-25 08:41 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2022/02/nio-is-entering-into-a-whole-new-world/><strong>investorplace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Well, we may be out of the pandemic and riding the big wave of sector rotation, but few of us predicted that Russia would invade Ukraine and turn the energy market and the stock markets upside down as...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2022/02/nio-is-entering-into-a-whole-new-world/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NIO":"蔚来"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2022/02/nio-is-entering-into-a-whole-new-world/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1184173485","content_text":"Well, we may be out of the pandemic and riding the big wave of sector rotation, but few of us predicted that Russia would invade Ukraine and turn the energy market and the stock markets upside down as well.

And it did.But as things started to get overheated with all the pandemic stimulus money sloshing around, Wall Street knew the hot sectors with massive market caps and matching price-to-earnings (P/E) – if the stocks even had earnings for P/Es – was coming to an end.Real companies with real earnings were back. And so were bonds. Stocks are no longer the only game in town.Blue Sky ComingFor EV companies like NIO, that actually wasn’t such a bad thing. NIO has been making cars and selling them at a brisk clip. It delivered more than 91,000 vehicles last year.And recently, the second largest U.S. pension fund bought NIO stock. That isn’t an aggressive hedge fund or tech-focused mutual fund. It’s a conservative hedge fund with more than $325 billion in assets.Ironically, NIO vehicles aren’t even sold in the U.S. They’re a premium Chinese car company selling to the Chinese market, at least for now. By the way, its name translates to “blue sky coming,” which is pretty appropriate for where NIO stock is right now.The status of fancy European and U.S. cars won’t hold much cache as the Chinese auto industry introduces its own vehicles that have comparable fit, finish, build and performance qualities.What’s more, the Chinese government has a vested interest to see its burgeoning car makers succeed, especially the EVs.Good EV companies are now on the shopping list of funds and institutions that are looking for ESG stocks. And that will keep NIO stock on plenty of lists.A Bad Year Is Good NewsIn the past 12 months, NIO stock has lost almost 57%. It has lost 50% in the past three months.Granted, it still has a $34 billion market cap. And it may have further to fall.But at this point, it’s at a place where if you get in and it continues to lose ground, it will likely make it up in the next year or two.That may sound like a bold statement given the surprises we continue to live through. But if things stay relatively sane, NIO stock is a decent long-term holding at this point. But you still might want to buy in one piece at a time.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":400,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9030866111,"gmtCreate":1645685582155,"gmtModify":1676534053437,"author":{"id":"3569050312475646","authorId":"3569050312475646","name":"ngmi","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/3bb7d5072829d6e17a3bc0699597c5e7","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Dont wait, sell!","listText":"Dont wait, sell!","text":"Dont wait, sell!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9030866111","repostId":"1167282619","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1167282619","pubTimestamp":1645663234,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1167282619?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-02-24 08:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow Industrials Are on Brink of Correction.

Avoid Crypto Miners","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2207822223","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Leveraged exposure to crypto sounds good on the way up, but not so great right now.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The question of whether to buy <b>Bitcoin </b>(CRYPTO:BTC) or Bitcoin miners such as <b>Marathon Digital </b>(NASDAQ:MARA), <b>Bit Digital </b>(NASDAQ:BTBT), or <b>CleanSpark </b>(NASDAQ:CLSK) is a good <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>. Fool.com contributors Chris MacDonald and Jon Quast discussed the pros and cons of taking this approach on this <b>Jan. 19 </b>episode of &#34;The Crypto Show&#34; on <i>Backstage Pass</i>.</p><p><b>Jon Quast:</b> We&#39;ll go ahead and start talking about that here. This was an article that came out on Saturday, very, very interesting on Bitcoin mining stocks. Specifically, here, I believe he is looking at Marathon Digital symbol, MARA and he is also looking at well, let me just flip ahead Bit Digital, symbol, BTBT, and CleanSpark CLSK. CleanSpark is not just a Bitcoin miner. They do have these other products that are basically designed to make power systems more efficient. Especially, I believe it&#39;s off-grid power systems help them be more efficient and they said well, we can apply this and mine Bitcoin more efficiently.</p><p>But, Anders, very interesting, the look that he had of these companies and their stocks and their beta their relative volatility to the market, finding that, as you pointed out, they&#39;re much more volatile than Bitcoin itself.</p><p><b>Chris MacDonald:</b> We touched on Bitcoin miners, I know in previous shows, in terms of their leverage exposure to the underlying prices of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. These top miners are Bitcoin miners. Generally speaking, when the price of Bitcoin goes up because these miners have high fixed costs and their costs are locked in dollars when the price of Bitcoin goes up, their debt, which is denominated in dollars, goes down relative to Bitcoin and their revenue, which is denominated in Bitcoin, goes up. Their balance sheet looks a heck of a lot better when Bitcoins on an uptrend.</p><p>Based on which direction Bitcoin is moving, these miners can often move in an amplified way. If you are looking at this slide here, so it&#39;s interesting when we look at Marathon with a beta of four that means essentially if the market goes up by 1%, Marathon could go up by 4% on average and vice versa.</p><p><b>Bitcoin</b> like I said, with the beta of zero, you don&#39;t know which direction it&#39;s necessarily going to go. It&#39;s kind of agnostic to the markets, which is more of what we would expect. It is a lower correlation asset. Some of these other cryptocurrencies do have higher betas.</p><p>That goes back to our previous discussion, but looking at the Bitcoin miners, you get that leveraged exposure to crypto prices. In good times, that&#39;s great. In times of a little bit more uncertainty like right now, these top miners are seeing drops.</p><p>But that being said, you look at Marathon Digital with its three-year return, they&#39;re over 2000%. That is pretty incredible and I think relative to the other ones like Bit Digital, we&#39;re going to touch on a little bit later. Relative to a lot of the other crypto miners it&#39;s got a lot better fundamentals. This would be my top crypto miner to look at it just based on its geographic location in the U.S. and its balance sheet right now.</p><p>There are differences among crypto miners. It is a higher beta one, which is interesting. If the market continues to decline, will Marathon dip harder? That remains to be seen. It has run pretty incredibly over the past three years. This is a sector to watch right now, I think.</p><p><b>Quast:</b> Yes, definitely. Beta doesn&#39;t predict where the price is going to go is a historical indicator. This has been what has historically trended so far. If history continues to repeat itself, it&#39;s what you would expect. The market falls, you&#39;d expect Marathon to fall harder.</p><p>What&#39;s interesting is, if you read the article, Anders, he points out that most of the months with these companies, with these stocks, they are not small moves. It was a 20% or more move up or down, like eight out of 12 months last year. There was a lot of months that it was up by 20% or more, but there was also several months where it was down 20% or more, really big swings.</p><p>For me personally, these bitcoin miners just haven&#39;t been attractive investments to me even though they have several of these. I don&#39;t believe Bit Digital, but definitely, Marathon beating the market by a wide margin over the past three years.</p><p>The reason I don&#39;t really like them is because you have the risk of Bitcoin in the first place and then you bring in a company that is the miner then you add in execution risks on top of it.

Fool.com contributors Chris MacDonald and Jon Quast discussed the pros and cons of taking this approach on this Jan. 19 episode of \"The Crypto Show\" on Backstage Pass.Jon Quast: We'll go ahead and start talking about that here. This was an article that came out on Saturday, very, very interesting on Bitcoin mining stocks. Specifically, here, I believe he is looking at Marathon Digital symbol, MARA and he is also looking at well, let me just flip ahead Bit Digital, symbol, BTBT, and CleanSpark CLSK. CleanSpark is not just a Bitcoin miner. They do have these other products that are basically designed to make power systems more efficient. Especially, I believe it's off-grid power systems help them be more efficient and they said well, we can apply this and mine Bitcoin more efficiently.But, Anders, very interesting, the look that he had of these companies and their stocks and their beta their relative volatility to the market, finding that, as you pointed out, they're much more volatile than Bitcoin itself.Chris MacDonald: We touched on Bitcoin miners, I know in previous shows, in terms of their leverage exposure to the underlying prices of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. These top miners are Bitcoin miners. Generally speaking, when the price of Bitcoin goes up because these miners have high fixed costs and their costs are locked in dollars when the price of Bitcoin goes up, their debt, which is denominated in dollars, goes down relative to Bitcoin and their revenue, which is denominated in Bitcoin, goes up. Their balance sheet looks a heck of a lot better when Bitcoins on an uptrend.Based on which direction Bitcoin is moving, these miners can often move in an amplified way. If you are looking at this slide here, so it's interesting when we look at Marathon with a beta of four that means essentially if the market goes up by 1%, Marathon could go up by 4% on average and vice versa.Bitcoin like I said, with the beta of zero, you don't know which direction it's necessarily going to go. It's kind of agnostic to the markets, which is more of what we would expect. It is a lower correlation asset. Some of these other cryptocurrencies do have higher betas.That goes back to our previous discussion, but looking at the Bitcoin miners, you get that leveraged exposure to crypto prices. In good times, that's great. In times of a little bit more uncertainty like right now, these top miners are seeing drops.But that being said, you look at Marathon Digital with its three-year return, they're over 2000%. That is pretty incredible and I think relative to the other ones like Bit Digital, we're going to touch on a little bit later. Relative to a lot of the other crypto miners it's got a lot better fundamentals. This would be my top crypto miner to look at it just based on its geographic location in the U.S. and its balance sheet right now.There are differences among crypto miners. It is a higher beta one, which is interesting. If the market continues to decline, will Marathon dip harder? That remains to be seen. It has run pretty incredibly over the past three years. This is a sector to watch right now, I think.Quast: Yes, definitely. Beta doesn't predict where the price is going to go is a historical indicator. This has been what has historically trended so far. If history continues to repeat itself, it's what you would expect. The market falls, you'd expect Marathon to fall harder.What's interesting is, if you read the article, Anders, he points out that most of the months with these companies, with these stocks, they are not small moves. It was a 20% or more move up or down, like eight out of 12 months last year. There was a lot of months that it was up by 20% or more, but there was also several months where it was down 20% or more, really big swings.For me personally, these bitcoin miners just haven't been attractive investments to me even though they have several of these. I don't believe Bit Digital, but definitely, Marathon beating the market by a wide margin over the past three years.The reason I don't really like them is because you have the risk of Bitcoin in the first place and then you bring in a company that is the miner then you add in execution risks on top of it. I don't really see the point of that. I'm invested in Bitcoin personally and that's enough risk for me.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":198,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9093099387,"gmtCreate":1643443638678,"gmtModify":1676533821754,"author":{"id":"3569050312475646","authorId":"3569050312475646","name":"ngmi","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/3bb7d5072829d6e17a3bc0699597c5e7","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Just buy crypto gaming coins","listText":"Just buy crypto gaming coins","text":"Just buy crypto gaming coins","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9093099387","repostId":"1126756363","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1126756363","pubTimestamp":1643433880,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1126756363?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-01-29 13:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Metaverse Stocks to Buy Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1126756363","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"With last year's direct listing of Roblox and Facebook's name change to Meta Platforms, the metavers","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>With last year&#39;s direct listing of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RBLX\"><b>Roblox</b></a> and Facebook&#39;s name change to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\"><b>Meta Platforms</b></a>, the metaverse took a few more steps into the limelight.

It's got a war chest of cash to spend on consumer products, such as Oculus virtual reality products, not to mention data centers and other necessary infrastructure to bring its metaverse ambitions to life.Facebook has spent approximately $21 billion on data centers over the last decade to build a total of 18 in the U.S. and internationally, according to Goldman Sachs. It has plans to build as many as 70 more buildings.Combine that with the company's move to split its financial reporting into two segments -- Family of Apps (social media) and Facebook Reality Labs (metaverse) -- and you can see how seriously CEO Mark Zuckerberg is taking this opportunity.Meta Platforms is still putting up solid revenue and earnings growth, and thesocial media leader looks undervaluedat a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 21.3.

But the stock, alongside the broader market, has since come to a bust with declines of more than 15%.</p><p>With inflation running its hottest course in four decades, the Federal Reserve has showed signs ofamped-up urgency in paring pandemic-era stimulus and pivoting toward a hawkish stance on monetary policy tightening. The impending rate hike cycle that is expected to begin in March has stirred investors’ concern over potential erosion of value on future gains and stalled growth due to rising costs of capital. This has led to a broad market sell-off in recent weeks, especially for high-growth stocks, as investors rotated out of risky assets to safer investments like Treasuries. As benchmark Treasury yield surpassed 1.8% last week in anticipation of the Fed’s plans to begin the rate hiking cycle soon to quell runaway inflation, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 was pushed into correction territory after declining more than 10% from its November closing record. A disappointing outlook released by Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) last week also has further fuelled investor angst, as the market continues on a freefall despite the brief mid-day rebound observed on Monday’s session.</p><p>Apple stock is now standing in a unique position in terms of timing, with Fed Chair Jerome Powell to give an update on monetary policy decision on Wednesday and the tech giant’s corporate earnings release on Thursday. On one hand, Wednesday’s briefing from Powell could lead to further market volatility as investors brace for an announcement on the timing and magnitude of upcoming rate hikes. On the other hand, Apple’s results and outlook to be released on the following day could come in strong and save the day by reversing the dire sentiment over the technology sector.</p><p>While some are bracing for an aggressive dose of monetary policy tightening with an initial rate hike of up to 50 bps in March to rein in inflation, the Fed will likely tread lightly over the matter. Despite historical inflation, it&#39;s likely the Fed is “acutely aware of the risk around getting too aggressive” and making a policy mistake that could be detrimental to the economy. As for Apple, the tech giant is expected to deliver an update that will likely encompass strong holiday season sales and robust demand for its products and services, despite protracted supply chain constraints being the near-term overhang.</p><p>As discussed in our previous coverage, Apple remains a top hedge against mounting macro headwinds like inflation and rate hikes. With strong cash flows, robust earnings and revenue growth, and expanding margins through scale and pricing power, the performance of Apple’s underlying business is really as good as it gets when it comes to resistance against inflation and tightening monetary policy. The stock’s latest pullback also puts its current trading multiples at a small discount compared to those during last year’s February tech stock sell-off. It&#39;s currently trading at about 28.8x TTM earnings compared to above 30x at the onset of 2021’s early-year sell-off.</p><p>Apple’s demonstration of continued strength in demand for its products and services, its ability to generate robust cash flows, and its innovative technology roadmap builds a strong hedge case against upcoming valuation adjustment risks posed by the upcoming tightening of monetary policy. Paired with the stock’s recent pullback in price, we&#39;re maintaining a buy rating with expectations for it to contest the $200-level within the next 12 months.</p><p><b>What We have Observed So Far Over the Holiday Season</b></p><p>Following last quarter’s earnings call when the company reported $6 billion in lost sales due to COVID- and supply-chain-related disruptions, there have been growing uncertainties on how the biggest sales quarter of the year has fared in one of the most protracted supply chain disruptions experienced in the history of the industry. We have done some field work over the holidays and earlier this month by going to Apple stores to gauge how sales have performed during the December quarter. Based on discussions with sales representatives, this is what we have gathered:</p><ul><li>Black Friday: Apple has opted for gift card rebates over traditional discounts on sticker prices offered by authorized retailers during the Black Friday shopping event. Based on discussions with in-store employees, the strategy has done a good job in retaining sales from customers who would have otherwise left the store empty handed due to lack of inventory on products they had originally intended to buy. For instance, bundle rebates on lower-priced in-stock items like the AirPods and AirTags have garnered strong traction during the annual shopping event. In our view, the gift card rebate has not only proven to be a prudent strategy in retaining customer sales despite lacking inventory, but also a good way to ensure additional inflow of future revenues instead of one-off discounts for customers that could be lost to competitors down the road.</li><li>Boxing Day: Visited Apple stores in North America actually did not offer any Boxing Day discounts, but demand for products remained robust. Many customers came in looking for the new iPhone 13 and iPads, but were forced to leave empty-handed due to severely limited inventory levels. Most had opted for online orders, which had long wait times, but that has not deterred them from making the purchase. This implies stickiness of demand for Apple’s suite of products, as well as the effectiveness of Apple’s continued commitment to product upgrades and innovations.</li><li>Today: Visited stores said they have quickly sold out of stock received on the all-new MacBook Pros, which run on the M1 Pro/M1 Pro Max chips. However, customer demand remains robust with many turning to online orders despite a three-week minimum wait time. Many stores are also out of all models of the iPads. On the iPhone front, some stores have indicated they had just received shipment for what was supposed to be December stock. Many salespersons we have spoken to believe sales would have been much better had the iPhone 13 shipments arrived in December as intended because that was pretty much what everyone was asking for during the holiday season. On the downside, this implies Apple has certainly remained impacted from supply chain bottlenecks during the holiday season. But on the upside, the iPhone 13 clearly remains a dominant player in the smartphone, and 5G-enabled devices, market.</li></ul><p>Supply chain constraints are clearly still a theme for Apple. And it seemed to have been accentuated over the December-quarter – its best sales quarter of the year – when most wanted to get their hands on the most advanced mobile and computing devices, and complementing accessories and gadgets. Yet, the company continues to be prudent in salvaging sales through strategies like gift card rebates to abate the impact of lost sales from supply chain disruptions, which we consider a prudent move to ensure demand does not spill over to competitors. Consumer willingness to endure long wait times through online orders are also testament to continued strength in demand for Apple’s products.</p><p>A high-level conclusion based on the information gathered from stores visited would imply the company has likely endured much more than $6 billion in lost revenues due to ongoing COVID- and supply-chain-related impacts to business during the December-quarter. However, demand definitely remains robust, which underscores the tech giant’s continued dominance across the market segments in which it operates in. And the company’s management team has clearly done a good job in ensuring demand remains in their pockets despite the current shortfall in supply. These, together, are all positive signs that the company’s valuation prospects remain intact.</p><p><b>Easing Supply Chain Constraints</b></p><p>On the supply front, supply chain bottlenecks are expected to ease over the course of the current year, which will help the stock defy related pressures as well as those from the recent sell-off on rate hike concerns. Following Microsoft’s most recent earnings call Tuesday, the stock saw a steep rebound following announcement of a strong outlook on cloud-computing business growth. And a similar trend should be in order for Apple as well, considering expectations for a positive change in management’s sentiment towards the current supply chain situation which would imply a strong performance outlook for the year.</p><p>The expectation is further corroborated by recent information released by Apple’s key supply chain partners, including Texas Instruments(NASDAQ:TXN) and Hon Hai Precision Industry (OTCPK:HNHAF). Texas Instruments, the world’s largest producer and supplier of analog and embedded processing chips, and a key supplier of display parts to Apple, has provided a stronger-than-expected sales and profit forecast during Tuesday’s earnings call. The semiconductor giant also reported slight improvements to inventory levels, albeit still about 40% lower than normal, as well as lower volumes of expedited order requests. These items, together, suggest that the ongoing chip supply shortage may be finally starting to ease. The expected trend is further corroborated by recent announcements from Hon Hai Precision Industry, the key assembler of Apple’s iPhones. Hon Hai’s Chairman Young Liu is predicting “unprecedented performance in the first quarter” that will surpass historical output levels. The global leader in contracted consumer electronics manufacturing is gearing up to ensure adequate levels of inventory for customers this quarter, including Apple, to prevent further unravelling of supply chain disruptions.</p><p>While Apple’s fiscal second quarter has historically experienced slower sales compared to the fiscal first quarter due to seasonality, recent improvements to supply chain will likely drive a boost in sales. Paired with in-store observations of replenished iPhone stock and the expectation for returning customers looking to cash in their gift card rebates received over the holidays, a stronger-than-expected outlook for the year is likely in order.</p><p><b>Continued Demand Buoyed by an Ever-Improving Product Line-Up</b></p><p>The iPhone 13 remains the dominant 5G-enabled mobile device on the market. It was the most sought-after product during the holiday season, and remains so today even as inventories begin to return to normal levels. Some regions are reporting wait times of up to a full week for online iPhone 13 orders to arrive due to the ongoing clash between robust demand and squeezed supply. While Apple is in process of restoring balance across its supply of the iPhone 13, its core revenue driver among other products, it is also continuously working on improving its product roadmap.</p><p>This includes the highly anticipated roll-out of the budget-friendly 5G-enabled iPhone SE, which is expected for later this year. The current iPhone SE only supports up to 4G LTE, and is still running on the 2019 A13 chips, while the newest generation of iPhones have already moved on to the A15 Bionic chips which promise much faster speeds. Although Apple has not yet released any official statement on the potentially newest addition to the iPhone family, it would only make sense for an upgrade on the iPhone SE with 5G and new processors to ensure its performance is caught up to current demands. As mentioned in our previous coverage, iPhone sales are expected to remain robust in coming years as global 5G device upgrades continue to gather pace. And the launch of a more affordable 5G-enabled iPhone SE would better equip Apple to attract switchers from “more than a billion non-premium Android users” and further its market share in the smartphones category. It would also help Apple maintain its lead in the 5G competition against rival Samsung, which has recently launched its own budget-friendly Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G to capitalize on rising opportunities stemming from non-premium upgrades.</p><p>The global push for 5G adoption and Apple’s aging installed base of iPhones is also expected to drive the segment into one of the largest multi-year upgrade cycles ahead. Reputable wireless carriers have been keen on promoting the sale of 5G-enabled devices, including the iPhone 12/13, in recent months with enticing offers in hopes of boosting their 5G network sign-ups to recoup their years of investments into the rollout of next-generation wireless service. And with more than a quarter of Apple’s active iPhone installed base being older than 3.5 years (circa iPhone 8 and iPhone X), Apple is looking to benefit from a multi-year wave of upgrade purchases as users of the older iPhones look to convert to newer models that are compatible with the latest technology.</p><p>As mentioned in earlier sections, Macs and iPads also appear to be rare commodities right now due to stickier-than-expected demand that have carried over from the peak of the pandemic. Robust holiday season demand for iPads, iMacs and MacBooks observed in store and online have driven the segment’s shipments up by 9% compared to the prior year,beating performance of all five best-selling PC vendors. While the milestone is expected to be a plus for fiscal first quarter earnings to be released later this week, the anticipated launch of additional product upgrades across Apple’s computing devices segment is what will drive further acceleration in growth for the current year and beyond:</p><ul><li>iPad Pro: The last time the iPad Pro had a full-on makeover was in 2018, which made its debut about a year and a half after the preceding model. Taking that for a proxy, a completely redesigned iPad Pro should be in the books for launch later this year, especially as the last two models were essentially “new chip and camera upgrades.” In addition to an exterior makeover that would likely feature a glass back, the next-generation iPad Pro is expected to be equipped with the newest M2 chip and integrated wireless charging to match capabilities of the iPhone.</li><li>iMac: With the newest M1 Pro and M1 Pro Max chips now fitted into the redesigned MacBook Pros, the next step would likely be to bring them into the iMac desktops. The redesigned M1-powered iMac launched last year has proven to be in high demand thanks to the surge in global demand for reliable workstations for work-from-home needs. Any improvements to the desktop’s processing power will likely drive further demand from those who has yet to make the leap on an upgrade, especially as the rising tide of hybrid working and learning arrangements is proving to be a staying trend even in the post-pandemic era.</li></ul><p>Services are also expected to play a larger role in Apple’s growth trajectory going forward. About a quarter of Apple’s sales last year were attributable to the services segment. Yet, it only accounted for about 10% of Apple’s consolidated cost of sales, indicating the segment’s generous margins. And Apple’s bottom line will only further benefit from expectations for further growth in demand for Apple services going forward. To date, Apple has garnered more than 745 million paid subscribers across its high-margin service offerings, representing a five-fold increase over the last five years. And its recent push for a subscription-based business model across its wide array of existing service platforms, ranging from Apple Music to iCloud storage solutions, paired with attractive new offerings and pricing options will continue to be a key driver for the segment’s growth, and inadvertently, the company’s fast-expanding margins.</p><p><b>Conclusion: AAPL’s Pullback Is a Buy Opportunity</b></p><p>Although equities are likely to remain volatile in the near term due to uncertainties over the timing and magnitude of the Fed’s monetary policy tightening agenda, Apple will likely draw a rebound from Thursday’s earnings call. While lost revenues driven by COVID- and supply-chain-related disruptions are likely a given, the tech giant is expected to have set a new record for fiscal first quarter sales on strong holiday season demand, nonetheless. Recent observations of easing supply chain constraints across Apple’s suppliers and manufacturing partners also signal improvements to the current year sales outlook, which bolsters investors’ confidence in the stock. And the continued strength in demand for Apple’s products and services will likely maintain the brand’s pricing power to beat any persisting inflation pressures ahead.</p><p>As discussed in detail in our last coverage on the stock, Apple’s overall valuation prospects remain intact despite the impending rate hiking cycle. Robust global demand for Apple&#39;s offerings as discussed in the foregoing analysis are expected to further grow Apple&#39;s cheque book, making a strong tailwind against downward valuation pressures stemming from upcoming changes to the macro environment. We believe there&#39;s still a massive runway for the stock to grow in both the near and longer term, which makes its recent pullback in price a reasonable buy opportunity.</p></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>Is Now A Good Time To Buy Or Sell Apple Stock?</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\">\nIs Now A Good Time To Buy Or Sell Apple Stock?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-27 13:36 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4481785-now-good-time-buy-sell-apple-stock><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryApple's value has declined by more than 10% since its brief stint in the $3 trillion market cap territory earlier in the year.The stock is also trading at about 28x forward earnings, which is ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4481785-now-good-time-buy-sell-apple-stock\">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/4481785-now-good-time-buy-sell-apple-stock","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1194933395","content_text":"SummaryApple's value has declined by more than 10% since its brief stint in the $3 trillion market cap territory earlier in the year.The stock is also trading at about 28x forward earnings, which is slightly discounted from a year ago during the February tech stock selloff.Considering hints of easing supply chain constraints across Apple's key suppliers and manufacturing partners, the company is likely looking at a better-than-expected growth outlook for the year.This will likely assuage growing investors' angst and \"change the tide for the current risk-off environment in tech\" which has pressured the Apple stock's performance.Apple's upcoming earnings call is expected to drive a rebound similar to Microsoft's after the latter reported a reassuring growth outlook. This makes Apple's recent price decline a reasonable buy opportunity considering there are still generous upsides ahead.nyc russ/iStock Editorial via Getty ImagesApple(NASDAQ:AAPL)rang into the New Year with a boom by becoming the first U.S.-listed public company to surpass a market cap of $3 trillion. But the stock, alongside the broader market, has since come to a bust with declines of more than 15%.With inflation running its hottest course in four decades, the Federal Reserve has showed signs ofamped-up urgency in paring pandemic-era stimulus and pivoting toward a hawkish stance on monetary policy tightening. The impending rate hike cycle that is expected to begin in March has stirred investors’ concern over potential erosion of value on future gains and stalled growth due to rising costs of capital. This has led to a broad market sell-off in recent weeks, especially for high-growth stocks, as investors rotated out of risky assets to safer investments like Treasuries. As benchmark Treasury yield surpassed 1.8% last week in anticipation of the Fed’s plans to begin the rate hiking cycle soon to quell runaway inflation, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 was pushed into correction territory after declining more than 10% from its November closing record. A disappointing outlook released by Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) last week also has further fuelled investor angst, as the market continues on a freefall despite the brief mid-day rebound observed on Monday’s session.Apple stock is now standing in a unique position in terms of timing, with Fed Chair Jerome Powell to give an update on monetary policy decision on Wednesday and the tech giant’s corporate earnings release on Thursday. On one hand, Wednesday’s briefing from Powell could lead to further market volatility as investors brace for an announcement on the timing and magnitude of upcoming rate hikes. On the other hand, Apple’s results and outlook to be released on the following day could come in strong and save the day by reversing the dire sentiment over the technology sector.While some are bracing for an aggressive dose of monetary policy tightening with an initial rate hike of up to 50 bps in March to rein in inflation, the Fed will likely tread lightly over the matter. Despite historical inflation, it's likely the Fed is “acutely aware of the risk around getting too aggressive” and making a policy mistake that could be detrimental to the economy. As for Apple, the tech giant is expected to deliver an update that will likely encompass strong holiday season sales and robust demand for its products and services, despite protracted supply chain constraints being the near-term overhang.As discussed in our previous coverage, Apple remains a top hedge against mounting macro headwinds like inflation and rate hikes. With strong cash flows, robust earnings and revenue growth, and expanding margins through scale and pricing power, the performance of Apple’s underlying business is really as good as it gets when it comes to resistance against inflation and tightening monetary policy. The stock’s latest pullback also puts its current trading multiples at a small discount compared to those during last year’s February tech stock sell-off. It's currently trading at about 28.8x TTM earnings compared to above 30x at the onset of 2021’s early-year sell-off.Apple’s demonstration of continued strength in demand for its products and services, its ability to generate robust cash flows, and its innovative technology roadmap builds a strong hedge case against upcoming valuation adjustment risks posed by the upcoming tightening of monetary policy. Paired with the stock’s recent pullback in price, we're maintaining a buy rating with expectations for it to contest the $200-level within the next 12 months.What We have Observed So Far Over the Holiday SeasonFollowing last quarter’s earnings call when the company reported $6 billion in lost sales due to COVID- and supply-chain-related disruptions, there have been growing uncertainties on how the biggest sales quarter of the year has fared in one of the most protracted supply chain disruptions experienced in the history of the industry. We have done some field work over the holidays and earlier this month by going to Apple stores to gauge how sales have performed during the December quarter. Based on discussions with sales representatives, this is what we have gathered:Black Friday: Apple has opted for gift card rebates over traditional discounts on sticker prices offered by authorized retailers during the Black Friday shopping event. Based on discussions with in-store employees, the strategy has done a good job in retaining sales from customers who would have otherwise left the store empty handed due to lack of inventory on products they had originally intended to buy. For instance, bundle rebates on lower-priced in-stock items like the AirPods and AirTags have garnered strong traction during the annual shopping event. In our view, the gift card rebate has not only proven to be a prudent strategy in retaining customer sales despite lacking inventory, but also a good way to ensure additional inflow of future revenues instead of one-off discounts for customers that could be lost to competitors down the road.Boxing Day: Visited Apple stores in North America actually did not offer any Boxing Day discounts, but demand for products remained robust. Many customers came in looking for the new iPhone 13 and iPads, but were forced to leave empty-handed due to severely limited inventory levels. Most had opted for online orders, which had long wait times, but that has not deterred them from making the purchase. This implies stickiness of demand for Apple’s suite of products, as well as the effectiveness of Apple’s continued commitment to product upgrades and innovations.Today: Visited stores said they have quickly sold out of stock received on the all-new MacBook Pros, which run on the M1 Pro/M1 Pro Max chips. However, customer demand remains robust with many turning to online orders despite a three-week minimum wait time. Many stores are also out of all models of the iPads. On the iPhone front, some stores have indicated they had just received shipment for what was supposed to be December stock. Many salespersons we have spoken to believe sales would have been much better had the iPhone 13 shipments arrived in December as intended because that was pretty much what everyone was asking for during the holiday season. On the downside, this implies Apple has certainly remained impacted from supply chain bottlenecks during the holiday season. But on the upside, the iPhone 13 clearly remains a dominant player in the smartphone, and 5G-enabled devices, market.Supply chain constraints are clearly still a theme for Apple. And it seemed to have been accentuated over the December-quarter – its best sales quarter of the year – when most wanted to get their hands on the most advanced mobile and computing devices, and complementing accessories and gadgets. Yet, the company continues to be prudent in salvaging sales through strategies like gift card rebates to abate the impact of lost sales from supply chain disruptions, which we consider a prudent move to ensure demand does not spill over to competitors. Consumer willingness to endure long wait times through online orders are also testament to continued strength in demand for Apple’s products.A high-level conclusion based on the information gathered from stores visited would imply the company has likely endured much more than $6 billion in lost revenues due to ongoing COVID- and supply-chain-related impacts to business during the December-quarter. However, demand definitely remains robust, which underscores the tech giant’s continued dominance across the market segments in which it operates in. And the company’s management team has clearly done a good job in ensuring demand remains in their pockets despite the current shortfall in supply. These, together, are all positive signs that the company’s valuation prospects remain intact.Easing Supply Chain ConstraintsOn the supply front, supply chain bottlenecks are expected to ease over the course of the current year, which will help the stock defy related pressures as well as those from the recent sell-off on rate hike concerns. Following Microsoft’s most recent earnings call Tuesday, the stock saw a steep rebound following announcement of a strong outlook on cloud-computing business growth. And a similar trend should be in order for Apple as well, considering expectations for a positive change in management’s sentiment towards the current supply chain situation which would imply a strong performance outlook for the year.The expectation is further corroborated by recent information released by Apple’s key supply chain partners, including Texas Instruments(NASDAQ:TXN) and Hon Hai Precision Industry (OTCPK:HNHAF). Texas Instruments, the world’s largest producer and supplier of analog and embedded processing chips, and a key supplier of display parts to Apple, has provided a stronger-than-expected sales and profit forecast during Tuesday’s earnings call. The semiconductor giant also reported slight improvements to inventory levels, albeit still about 40% lower than normal, as well as lower volumes of expedited order requests. These items, together, suggest that the ongoing chip supply shortage may be finally starting to ease. The expected trend is further corroborated by recent announcements from Hon Hai Precision Industry, the key assembler of Apple’s iPhones. Hon Hai’s Chairman Young Liu is predicting “unprecedented performance in the first quarter” that will surpass historical output levels. The global leader in contracted consumer electronics manufacturing is gearing up to ensure adequate levels of inventory for customers this quarter, including Apple, to prevent further unravelling of supply chain disruptions.While Apple’s fiscal second quarter has historically experienced slower sales compared to the fiscal first quarter due to seasonality, recent improvements to supply chain will likely drive a boost in sales. Paired with in-store observations of replenished iPhone stock and the expectation for returning customers looking to cash in their gift card rebates received over the holidays, a stronger-than-expected outlook for the year is likely in order.Continued Demand Buoyed by an Ever-Improving Product Line-UpThe iPhone 13 remains the dominant 5G-enabled mobile device on the market. It was the most sought-after product during the holiday season, and remains so today even as inventories begin to return to normal levels. Some regions are reporting wait times of up to a full week for online iPhone 13 orders to arrive due to the ongoing clash between robust demand and squeezed supply. While Apple is in process of restoring balance across its supply of the iPhone 13, its core revenue driver among other products, it is also continuously working on improving its product roadmap.This includes the highly anticipated roll-out of the budget-friendly 5G-enabled iPhone SE, which is expected for later this year. The current iPhone SE only supports up to 4G LTE, and is still running on the 2019 A13 chips, while the newest generation of iPhones have already moved on to the A15 Bionic chips which promise much faster speeds.

That was the biggest outflow since March.</p><p>The withdrawals come as ARKK languishes at the lowest in about 18 months.

ARKK’s outflow was its third-biggest on record; the last time the fund lost over $300 million it was trading 44% higher.</p><p>Market conditions have been turning ever-more hostile to the disruptive tech companies beloved by Wood.

That was the biggest outflow since March.The withdrawals come as ARKK languishes at the lowest in about 18 months. ARK Investment Management’s main exchange-traded fund has dropped more than 15% since the start of the year as top holdings like Roku Inc., Zoom Video Communications Inc. and Teledoc Health Inc. are caught in the tech rout.While the flow is small compared to ARK assets overall -- its nine ETFs still boast about $25 billion -- it marks a potential turning point for an investor base that until now has barely wavered in its support for Wood and the firm she founded in 2014. ARKK’s outflow was its third-biggest on record; the last time the fund lost over $300 million it was trading 44% higher.Market conditions have been turning ever-more hostile to the disruptive tech companies beloved by Wood. Rampant inflation has spurred a hawkish turn by the Federal Reserve, spelling the end to pandemic-era stimulus and the ultra-low yields that helped pump up equity valuations. Investors are pulling back from speculative bets and growth firms whose profit potential lies in the future -- exactly the kind of stocks favored by ARK.“Heavy outflows from a fund, active or passive, can be a sign that investors’ faith in growth and momentum-style investing is flagging,” said Russ Mould, investment director at AJ Bell. “Coupled with weakness in cryptocurrencies, meme stocks such as GameStop and AMC Entertainment and a strong rally in energy and financial stocks, it does feel as if the market mood is changing.”ARKK is now down about 50% from its all-time high in February last year. Yet many of its investors -- who poured billions in after the ETF returned more than 150% in 2020 -- have stayed loyal even as they lost money.Fund assets have declined by about $15 billion since the peak, but only approximately $1.1 billion of that was from net outflows -- the rest of the drop has been caused by performance. The ETF is now trading well below an estimate of its average purchase price since-inception.Wood’s repeated message is that the firm’s investment horizon is for at least five years, and that the potential of the innovative companies ARK targets is huge. It has regularly used pullbacks in its high-conviction names to increase its position, even as some on Wall Street fret over concentration risk.The firm’s miserable run seems to be getting even worse in 2022, and every one of its U.S.-listed ETFs is down so far. The worst performer is the ARK Genomic Revolution ETF (ARKG) with a drop of 17%. The best is ARK Israel Innovative Technology ETF (IZRL), which is down 5%.Alongside ARKK, the other eight funds lost almost $50 million combined Wednesday. The settlement schedule for the products mean that flow data arrives with a one-day lag.ARKK was 1% lower in premarket trading at 7:12 a.m. in New York on Friday.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":403,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":138182808,"gmtCreate":1621917787004,"gmtModify":1704364423249,"author":{"id":"3569050312475646","authorId":"3569050312475646","name":"ngmi","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/3bb7d5072829d6e17a3bc0699597c5e7","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Motley fool is a joke","listText":"Motley fool is a joke","text":"Motley fool is a joke","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/138182808","repostId":"2137132568","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2137132568","pubTimestamp":1621915020,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2137132568?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-25 11:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"10 Reasons the Cryptocurrency Bubble Is Bursting","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2137132568","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"This might be more than just a \"healthy pullback.\"","content":"<blockquote><b>This might be more than just a \"healthy pullback.\"</b></blockquote><p>For more than 100 years, the stock market has been <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the greatest wealth creators in this country.

There's very minimal real-world utility</p><p>One of the biggest drawbacks of digital currency is that it's virtually useless outside a cryptocurrency exchange. Although we've seen a small number of high-profile companies or organizations accept Bitcoin or Dogecoin, the reality is that the total number of businesses accepting either is microscopic. Approximately 1,300 businesses globally have chosen to accept Dogecoin after eight years, while Fundera found that 15,174 businesses accept Bitcoin, as of December 2020. For some context here, there are an estimated 582 million entrepreneurs worldwide.</p><p>2. Valuations, relative to transaction data, made no sense</p><p>Even though valuation is somewhat subjective, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> glance at transaction data for the three most popular cryptocurrencies, relative to payment processing juggernauts such as <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a></b> (NYSE:V) and <b>Mastercard</b> (NYSE:MA), would leave anyone's jaw on the floor.</p><p>The latest Nilson report found that 1.01 billion credit transactions were processed daily in 2018, 700 million of which were handled by Visa and Mastercard. By comparison, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin are processing in the neighborhood of 300,000, 1.4 million, and 50,000 respective transactions on their blockchains each day. All the major cryptos combined can't hold a candle to the processing potential of Visa or Mastercard, yet the Big Three of crypto have a higher combined market value than Visa and Mastercard. That makes no sense.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ce89a01a16c15dafb27017a6a42cedc3\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"496\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><p>3. Businesses have been slow to adopt blockchain</p><p>On paper, blockchain sounds great. On the financial side of the equation, it's a way to expedite the validation and settlement of payments. Rather than waiting up to a week for cross-border payments to settle, they could be resolved in mere seconds or minutes. Blockchain also has nonfinancial applications. Ethereum's smart contract-driven blockchain might be the key to one day unlocking supply chain bottlenecks.</p><p>However, what sounds great on paper doesn't always translate into real-world success. Blockchain continues to suffer from a Catch-22. Businesses won't adopt it till the technology is proven on a broad scale, but no businesses will abandon their existing (and proven) infrastructure to effectively be the guinea pig. Until blockchain matures, big business will keep its distance.</p><p>4. There's virtually no barrier to entry</p><p>Aside from minimal utility, my biggest personal gripe with crypto is there's no barrier to entry. Anyone with the time to code can develop a blockchain and, potentially, a tethered token. According to CoinMarketCap, there are almost 10,000 different cryptocurrencies in its system. While many aren't trading much, if at all, that's an insane number of potential competitors to Bitcoin, Dogecoin, and Ethereum, with the likelihood of many more to come.</p><p>In short, the crypto space is constantly being diluted by an unlimited amount of competition.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/614d7f34734e33d740f7f9c02ed3f8fd\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><p>5. Centralization remains a problem</p><p>One of the many goals of cryptocurrencies is decentralization. This is to ensure that no one person or small group of people controls a network. Yet according to data from BitInfoCharts.com, ownership in Bitcoin and Dogecoin is fairly centralized. Just 2,155 addresses own almost 42% of all Bitcoin, while 66.6% of all outstanding Dogecoin is owned by only 99 addresses. It's possible folks are waking up to the fact that these financial experiments aren't as decentralized as they were intended to be.</p><p>6. Elon Musk is tugging at heartstrings</p><p>Another reason the crypto bubble is bursting is that it's been artificially driven by tweets from <b>Tesla</b>&nbsp;CEO Elon Musk.</p><p>At first, Musk was all aboard the Bitcoin train. He purchased $1.5 billion Bitcoin for Tesla's balance sheet in February and announced that the company would begin accepting Bitcoin for electric vehicle purchases a month later. Then, after 49 days, he tweeted that Tesla would no longer accept Bitcoin because of the adverse environmental impacts of mining it. He's since turned his attention to Dogecoin.</p><p>The fact that tweets with little or no substance are creating and erasing hundreds of billions of dollars in crypto market value would seem to indicate that a bubble has been brewing for some time.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4c7f03bc8a60bee0f293f0582f185505\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"474\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><p>7. Not all governments are OK with crypto</p><p>The crypto bubble is also popping because some governments aren't OK with allowing cryptocurrencies to undermine their own central bank-backed currencies. Last week, China sent the crypto market into a tailspin after prohibiting banks and online payment channels in the country from offering any services related to the cryptocurrency industry. It should be noted that a lot of Bitcoin mining occurs in China.</p><p>And China's far from alone. Turkey recently enacted a ban on crypto payments. Meanwhile, countries including Bolivia, Ecuador, Nigeria, and Algeria have effectively banned digital currencies. This trend makes the global use case for crypto unlikely.</p><p>8. There are no identifiable real-world correlations</p><p>Yet another issue with crypto is there are no readily identifiable real-world correlations.</p><p>For example, we know that gold and the U.S. dollar have an inverse relationship to one another. When the dollar is declining in value, gold is very likely rising in value. This is a correlation that's been established over a long period of time.</p><p>Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin don't have these correlations. Enthusiasts like to point out how crypto is a hedge against inflation, but they forget that Bitcoin has both risen and fallen when the money supply expanded rapidly or slowly. Crypto is driven by emotion and technical analysis, primarily because it has no real-world correlations.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b04ade705354c4825038c4dfcd0187d9\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><p>9. Leverage is haunting the crypto market</p><p>The cryptocurrency implosion can also be blamed on investors who are over-levered. Some of the most popular crypto exchanges will allow customers to use 50 to 125 times leverage on their actual account equity. While this isn't an uncommon amount of leverage in forex, where currencies move in fractions of a cent, it's absolutely ludicrous for crypto, which can move 3% in the blink of an eye.</p><p>According to data from Bybt.com, via Bloomberg, over 887,000 accounts totaling $9.4 billion in aggregate crypto assets were liquidated as a result of leverage-based margin calls on May 19. Because of this insane leverage, it doesn't take much for things to go south quickly for the crypto market.</p><p>10. Investors always overhype new tech</p><p>Finally, investors frequently overestimate the adoption of new technology. Though there is no shortage of people hyped up about blockchain, it's been more than a half-decade and the blockchain buzz hasn't materialized into meaningful enterprise usage. It takes all next-big-thing technology time to mature, and crypto will be no different.</p>","source":"fool_stock","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>10 Reasons the Cryptocurrency Bubble Is Bursting</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\">\n10 Reasons the Cryptocurrency Bubble Is Bursting\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-25 11:57 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/05/24/10-reasons-the-cryptocurrency-bubble-is-bursting/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>This might be more than just a \"healthy pullback.\"For more than 100 years, the stock market has been one of the greatest wealth creators in this country.

It should be noted that a lot of Bitcoin mining occurs in China.And China's far from alone. Turkey recently enacted a ban on crypto payments. Meanwhile, countries including Bolivia, Ecuador, Nigeria, and Algeria have effectively banned digital currencies. This trend makes the global use case for crypto unlikely.8. There are no identifiable real-world correlationsYet another issue with crypto is there are no readily identifiable real-world correlations.For example, we know that gold and the U.S. dollar have an inverse relationship to one another. When the dollar is declining in value, gold is very likely rising in value. This is a correlation that's been established over a long period of time.Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin don't have these correlations. Enthusiasts like to point out how crypto is a hedge against inflation, but they forget that Bitcoin has both risen and fallen when the money supply expanded rapidly or slowly. Crypto is driven by emotion and technical analysis, primarily because it has no real-world correlations.Image source: Getty Images.9. Leverage is haunting the crypto marketThe cryptocurrency implosion can also be blamed on investors who are over-levered. Some of the most popular crypto exchanges will allow customers to use 50 to 125 times leverage on their actual account equity. While this isn't an uncommon amount of leverage in forex, where currencies move in fractions of a cent, it's absolutely ludicrous for crypto, which can move 3% in the blink of an eye.According to data from Bybt.com, via Bloomberg, over 887,000 accounts totaling $9.4 billion in aggregate crypto assets were liquidated as a result of leverage-based margin calls on May 19. Because of this insane leverage, it doesn't take much for things to go south quickly for the crypto market.10. Investors always overhype new techFinally, investors frequently overestimate the adoption of new technology. Though there is no shortage of people hyped up about blockchain, it's been more than a half-decade and the blockchain buzz hasn't materialized into meaningful enterprise usage. It takes all next-big-thing technology time to mature, and crypto will be no different.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":330,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371040032,"gmtCreate":1618895417226,"gmtModify":1704716508727,"author":{"id":"3569050312475646","authorId":"3569050312475646","name":"ngmi","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/3bb7d5072829d6e17a3bc0699597c5e7","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I got a seizure everytime I look at my portfolio&nbsp;","listText":"I got a seizure everytime I look at my portfolio&nbsp;","text":"I got a seizure everytime I look at my portfolio","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/371040032","repostId":"1149811397","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1149811397","pubTimestamp":1618893361,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1149811397?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-20 12:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The Market Has Been Forgiving for Way Too Long","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1149811397","media":"The Street","summary":"At some point, the momentum and frothy traders will return, but the current action should be a solid","content":"<blockquote>At some point, the momentum and frothy traders will return, but the current action should be a solid lesson.</blockquote><p>Stocks quotes in this article:DFLYF</p><p>If you haven't realized it already, the recent shift of the market will put convictions to test.

After the benchmark<b>S&amp;P 500</b>(SNPINDEX:^GSPC)lost a third of its value in mere weeks due to unprecedented uncertainties surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, it bounced back to gain in the neighborhood of 75% off its lows. You could rightly say that patience has paid off.</p>\n<p>But there's another reality that investors -- especially long-term investors -- are keenly aware of: the propensity of the stock market to crash or correct. Things might look great now, but the next big nosedive is always waiting in the wings.</p>\n<p>It begs the question: How likely is astock market crash? Let's take a closer look.</p>\n<p><b>Double-digit declines occur every 1.87 years, on average</b></p>\n<p>To begin with the basics, stock market corrections (i.e., declines of at least 10%) are quite common in the S&amp;P 500. According to data from market analytics firm Yardeni Research, there have been 38 corrections in the S&amp;P 500 since the beginning of 1950. This works out to an average double-digit decline in the benchmark indexevery 1.87 years. Since it's now been more than a year since the market hit its bear-market bottom, the averages are certainly not in investors' favor.</p>\n<p>However, averages are nothing more than that... averages. The market doesn't adhere to averages, even if some folks base their investments off of what's happened historically.</p>\n<p>We could enter a period similar to 1991 through 1996 where there were zero corrections. Or we could continue the theme since the beginning of 2010, where corrections occur, on average, every 19 months.</p>\n<p><b>Corrections have been an historical given within three years of a bear market bottom</b></p>\n<p>Another interesting piece of evidence to examine is the frequency by which the S&amp;P 500 corrects after hitting a bear-market bottom.</p>\n<p>Since the beginning of 1960 (an arbitrary year I chose for the sake of simplicity), the widely followed index has navigated its way through nine bear markets, including the coronavirus crash. In rebounding from each of the previous eight bear market lows, there was at least one double-digit percentage decline within three years100% of the time. In aggregate, 13 corrections have occurred within three years following the last eight bear market bottoms (i.e., either one or two following each bottom).</p>\n<p>Put another way, rebounding from a bear-market bottom is rarely a straight-line move higher. Yet up, up, and away has pretty much been the theme for investors since March 23, 2020. History would suggest that there's a very good chance of a move lower in equities within the next two years.</p>\n<p><b>Crashes frequently occur when this valuation metric is hit</b></p>\n<p>But the most damning bit of evidence might just be the S&amp;P 500's Shiller price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio. This is a valuation metric that examines the average inflation-adjusted earnings from the previous 10 years. You might also know it as the cyclically adjusted P/E ratio, or CAPE.</p>\n<p>As of the close of business on March 30, the S&amp;P 500's Shiller P/E ratio hit 35.61. That's well over double its 150-year average of 16.8. Using continuous bull market moves as a parameter, it's the second-highest reading in its history.</p>\n<p>To some extent, itmakes sensethat equity valuations should be higher now than they've been historically. That's because interest rates are near an all-time low and access to the internet has effectively broken down barriers between Wall Street and Main Street that may have, in the past, kept P/E multiples at bay.</p>\n<p>However, previous instances of the S&amp;P 500's Shiller P/E ratio crossing above and sustaining the 30 levelhaven't ended well. In the prior four instances where the Shiller P/E surpassed and held above 30, the benchmark index tumbled anywhere from 20% to as much as 89%. Although an 89% plunge, which was experienced during the Great Depression, is very unlikely these days, a big drop has historically been in the cards when valuations get extended, as they are now.</p>\n<p><b>Keep that cash handy in the event that opportunity knocks</b></p>\n<p>To circle back to the original question at hand, the data is pretty clear that the likelihood of a stock market crash or correction has grown considerably. It's impossible to precisely predict when a crash might occur, how long the decline will last, or how steep the drop could be. But the data strongly suggests that downside is in the offing.</p>\n<p>While this might be a disappointing revelation to some investors, it shouldn't be. Crashes and corrections are a normal part of the investing cycle. More importantly, theyprovide an opportunityfor investors to buy into great companies at a discount. Just think about all the great companies you're probably kicking yourself over for not buying last March.</p>\n<p>The reason to be excited about crashes and corrections is also found in the data. You see, of those 38 previous corrections in the S&amp;P 500 since the beginning of 1950, each and every one has eventually been put into the rearview mirror by a bull market rally. Plus,at no point over the past centuryhave rolling 20-year total returns (including dividends) for the S&amp;P 500 been negative.</p>\n<p>If you need further encouragement to buy during a correction, keep in mind that 24 of the 38 double-digit declines in the S&amp;P 500 havefound their bottom in 104 or fewer calendar days(3.5 months or less). Crashes and corrections may be steep at times but tend to resolve quickly. That's your cue to have cash at the ready in the event that opportunity knocks.</p>","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>How Likely Is a Stock Market Crash?</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\">\nHow Likely Is a Stock Market Crash?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-02 20:22 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/02/how-likely-is-a-stock-market-crash/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>You may not like the answer.\n\nFor the past year, investors have enjoyed one of the greatest bounce-back rallies of all time.

Or we could continue the theme since the beginning of 2010, where corrections occur, on average, every 19 months.\nCorrections have been an historical given within three years of a bear market bottom\nAnother interesting piece of evidence to examine is the frequency by which the S&P 500 corrects after hitting a bear-market bottom.\nSince the beginning of 1960 (an arbitrary year I chose for the sake of simplicity), the widely followed index has navigated its way through nine bear markets, including the coronavirus crash. In rebounding from each of the previous eight bear market lows, there was at least one double-digit percentage decline within three years100% of the time. In aggregate, 13 corrections have occurred within three years following the last eight bear market bottoms (i.e., either one or two following each bottom).\nPut another way, rebounding from a bear-market bottom is rarely a straight-line move higher. Yet up, up, and away has pretty much been the theme for investors since March 23, 2020. History would suggest that there's a very good chance of a move lower in equities within the next two years.\nCrashes frequently occur when this valuation metric is hit\nBut the most damning bit of evidence might just be the S&P 500's Shiller price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio. This is a valuation metric that examines the average inflation-adjusted earnings from the previous 10 years. You might also know it as the cyclically adjusted P/E ratio, or CAPE.\nAs of the close of business on March 30, the S&P 500's Shiller P/E ratio hit 35.61. That's well over double its 150-year average of 16.8. Using continuous bull market moves as a parameter, it's the second-highest reading in its history.\nTo some extent, itmakes sensethat equity valuations should be higher now than they've been historically. That's because interest rates are near an all-time low and access to the internet has effectively broken down barriers between Wall Street and Main Street that may have, in the past, kept P/E multiples at bay.\nHowever, previous instances of the S&P 500's Shiller P/E ratio crossing above and sustaining the 30 levelhaven't ended well. In the prior four instances where the Shiller P/E surpassed and held above 30, the benchmark index tumbled anywhere from 20% to as much as 89%. Although an 89% plunge, which was experienced during the Great Depression, is very unlikely these days, a big drop has historically been in the cards when valuations get extended, as they are now.\nKeep that cash handy in the event that opportunity knocks\nTo circle back to the original question at hand, the data is pretty clear that the likelihood of a stock market crash or correction has grown considerably. It's impossible to precisely predict when a crash might occur, how long the decline will last, or how steep the drop could be. But the data strongly suggests that downside is in the offing.\nWhile this might be a disappointing revelation to some investors, it shouldn't be. Crashes and corrections are a normal part of the investing cycle. More importantly, theyprovide an opportunityfor investors to buy into great companies at a discount. Just think about all the great companies you're probably kicking yourself over for not buying last March.\nThe reason to be excited about crashes and corrections is also found in the data. You see, of those 38 previous corrections in the S&P 500 since the beginning of 1950, each and every one has eventually been put into the rearview mirror by a bull market rally. Plus,at no point over the past centuryhave rolling 20-year total returns (including dividends) for the S&P 500 been negative.\nIf you need further encouragement to buy during a correction, keep in mind that 24 of the 38 double-digit declines in the S&P 500 havefound their bottom in 104 or fewer calendar days(3.5 months or less). Crashes and corrections may be steep at times but tend to resolve quickly. That's your cue to have cash at the ready in the event that opportunity knocks.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":239,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":327212866,"gmtCreate":1616086203055,"gmtModify":1704790879961,"author":{"id":"3569050312475646","authorId":"3569050312475646","name":"ngmi","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/3bb7d5072829d6e17a3bc0699597c5e7","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hedge fund are just sector rotating to satisfy their boomer clients&nbsp;","listText":"Hedge fund are just sector rotating to satisfy their boomer clients&nbsp;","text":"Hedge fund are just sector rotating to satisfy their boomer clients","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/327212866","repostId":"1172934216","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1172934216","pubTimestamp":1616077569,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1172934216?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-18 22:26","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Investors really hate tech stocks right now— but should they?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1172934216","media":"yahoo","summary":"There is no love for hot tech stocks right now, but strategists say eventually that will change because commonsense says it should change.Nevertheless, the lack of love for tech is growing palpable as positions areslashed amid the rise in 10-year yields and a rotation into value stocks.Fund managers cut their tech weighting to the lowest overweight position since January 2009,according to a new survey out this week from Bank of America.
