This is a milestone that every company aims for, though very few reach. For investors, this means constantly being on the lookout for innovators with revolutionary products that can take them to market capitalizations above $1 trillion.</p><p>As <i>InvestorPlace</i> analyst Luke Lango notes, in 2022, the iPhone helped <b>Apple</b> reach that milestone and become the world’s most valuable company with a market cap above $2 trillion. Plenty of experts have made predictions as to what the next trillion-dollar whale will be. But I wanted to hear what ChatGPT has to say about it.</p><p>Very much a revolutionary product itself, ChatGPT has proven apt at many things, including researching any number of topics and providing detailed information on them. This includes investing and stock selection. As <i>InvestorPlace</i> Financial News Writer Brenden Rearick reports:</p><blockquote>“<i>InvestorPlace</i> has tasked ChatGPT time and again with selecting high-growth assets across the stock market and crypto world. The chatbot, while not necessarily up-to-date on stock market news, possesses a keen quantitative analysis skill…”</blockquote><p>With this in mind, I tasked ChatGPT with identifying the next trillion-dollar company. While the chatbot can’t make direct predictions, it did provide me with a list of companies that it thinks have the potential to reach the trillion-dollar mark. When first asked, it named the sectors that it sees as having trillion-dollar potential: artificial intelligence, healthcare technology, electric and autonomous vehicles, fintech and renewable energy. A few questions later, it named companies from each one that it saw as having the best potential.</p><p>Let’s take a look at what ChatGPT thinks will be the next trillion-dollar companies.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon </a></h2><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/21b798812e309fcfdcc7d7c00622a0ce\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Sundry Photography / Shutterstock.com</p><p>With a market cap of $970 billion, <b>Amazon</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>AMZN</u></b>) is dangerously close to hitting $1 trillion. ChatGPT touts the e-commerce giant for its wide-range applications across many sectors. It specifically highlights Amazon’s recent investments in AI and robotics, making it clear that it sees this emerging market as the company’s ticket to a trillion-dollar valuation. This includes a recent partnership with AI startup <b>Hugging Face</b>, which offers Amazon exposure to a lucrative new section of the AI field. As the bot states:</p><blockquote>“As the company continues to expand into new markets, such as healthcare and advertising, and invest in emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and robotics, it could potentially continue to grow and reach a $1 trillion valuation.”</blockquote><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NEE\">NextEra Energy </a></h2><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea57d4c3dcede125d4c0c41df15c24f2\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: madamF / Shutterstock.com</p><p>ChatGPT clearly recognizes the power and potential of the renewable energy sector. <b>NextEra Energy</b> (NYSE:<b><u>NEE</u></b>) is one of the field’s leaders, with vast holdings and an impressive market share. ChatGPT definitely sees it as a great play among clean energy companies. As it states:</p><blockquote>“NextEra Energy is already one of the world’s largest producers of wind and solar power, and its focus on renewable energy and sustainability could help it continue to grow and reach a $1 trillion valuation.”</blockquote><p>Additionally, the company is ranked as a winner among dividend stocks and carries significant appeal for less risk-averse investors. All this bodes well for its future as a potential trillion-dollar winner.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MRNA\">Moderna </a></h2><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c432dd53ea4900b4425422ee00cafdba\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Ascannio / Shutterstock.com</p><p><b>Moderna</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>MRNA</u></b>) enjoyed a race to the top during the Covid-19 vaccine rush, securing its place among pharmaceutical winners. Now, ChatGPT believes it has trillion-dollar potential due to its applications in healthcare technology. While the bot did not get specific in its reasoning, it provided the following breakdown:</p><blockquote>“Moderna is a biotechnology company that has gained significant attention and market value during the COVID-19 pandemic due to its successful development of an mRNA vaccine. As the company continues to develop and commercialize other mRNA-based treatments, it could potentially reach a $1 trillion valuation.”</blockquote><p>It’s also worth noting that ChatGPT considers MRNA to be a meme stock. When Rearick asked it for a list of the best meme stocks to buy, its top 10 picks included Moderna. That said, this categorization is likely due to 2021 data, as during that year the stock made many headlines.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">Nvidia </a></h2><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/04874462381e4ee3fb7f89da1b0d0b6f\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Hairem / Shutterstock.com</p><p>It’s not surprising that this AI standout would be ranked among future trillion-dollar winners. A Silicon Valley darling with wide-ranging applications, <b>Nvidia</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>NVDA</u></b>) is often noted for its potential to help power the AI boom. When I asked ChatGPT for a list of the best AI stocks to buy, it ranked Nvidia among its top picks, second only to actual trillion-dollar company <b>Alphabet</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>GOOG</u></b>, NASDAQ:<b>GOOGL</b>). This time around, it provided a detailed breakdown of why it sees Nvidia reaching the same level:</p><blockquote>“Nvidia is a leading semiconductor and graphics processing unit (GPU) company that has been on a steady growth trajectory in recent years, with a current market capitalization of around $500 billion. There are several reasons why some analysts and investors believe that Nvidia has the potential to reach a $1 trillion valuation in the future.”</blockquote><p>These reasons included “dominance in the AI and data center markets,” “diversification into new markets,” and high investor confidence as well as impressive financials. Nvidia’s market cap is actually $586 billion, a reminder that ChatGPT’s data is limited to 2021 and earlier. However, the rest of the reasoning holds up.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ILMN\">Illumina</a></h2><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e83f39750e9eef81e25f4c70da4c2af0\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: shutterstock.com/Romix Image</p><p>This name isn’t as well-known as the other stocks that ChatGPT named as potential trillion-dollar winners. But that doesn’t mean investors should count <b>Illumina</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>ILMN</u></b>) out. As <i>InvestorPlace</i> contributor Larry Ramer notes, the biotech company is a leader in the field of gene sequencing, which he describes as a “key to unlocking precision medicine.” ChatGPT has a similar take, citing multiple reasons to be bullish on ILMN. As it states:</p><blockquote>“Illumina is a leading company in the genomics and genetic testing space, providing genetic sequencing and analysis solutions to researchers, clinicians, and biotech companies. There are several factors that could contribute to the company’s growth potential.”</blockquote><p>The chatbot highlights the company’s history of innovation while also naming “increasing demand for genetic testing” and “expansion into new markets” as factors for why it sees so much potential, as well as its focus on partnerships and diversification of products.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">Tesla </a></h2><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9ebd185bd49900b38a5d763f7b0e670a\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Roschetzky Photography / Shutterstock.com</p><p>It’s no surprise that such a popular company would be on this list, especially after ChatGPT named electric and autonomous vehicles as a top opportunity. <b>Tesla</b> (NASDAQ:<b>TSLA</b>) is considered a leader in both fields.</p><p>While its autonomous driving technology has come under fire after multiple accidents, it remains firmly ahead of many competitors. Additionally, it still has its place at the front of the EV race, even as competitors close in. As <i>InvestorPlace</i> contributor Bret Kenwell reports, Tesla has already been in the trillion-dollar club and it could get there again. ChatGPT has a similar perspective. Per the bot:</p><blockquote>“Tesla is currently the largest automaker by market capitalization, with a market cap [near] $600 billion. As the company continues to expand its electric vehicle production and autonomous driving capabilities, it could potentially reach a $1 trillion valuation.”</blockquote><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SQ\">Block</a></h2><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4af302a5be4a7e5081a682dec640caf7\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Sergei Elagin / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Constantly hailed as a winner in the fintech space, <b>Block</b> (NYSE:<b>SQ</b>) has emerged as a mobile payments leader. Led by former <b>Twitter</b> CEO Jack Dorsey, the company is recovering from a volatile year. But this isn’t the first time that ChatGPT has selected it as a stock with significant growth potential. <i>InvestorPlace</i> Assistant News Writer Shrey Dua recently asked the bot for a list of tech stocks with high five-year growth potential. It ranked Block just below Nvidia on a list that included Apple and Amazon. Here’s what it told me about SQ stock:</p><blockquote>“[Block] has been on a steady growth trajectory since its founding in 2009 and has already reached a market capitalization of over $100 billion.

This is a milestone that every company aims for, though very few reach. For investors, this means constantly being on the lookout for innovators with revolutionary products that can take them to market capitalizations above $1 trillion.As InvestorPlace analyst Luke Lango notes, in 2022, the iPhone helped Apple reach that milestone and become the world’s most valuable company with a market cap above $2 trillion. Plenty of experts have made predictions as to what the next trillion-dollar whale will be. But I wanted to hear what ChatGPT has to say about it.Very much a revolutionary product itself, ChatGPT has proven apt at many things, including researching any number of topics and providing detailed information on them. This includes investing and stock selection. As InvestorPlace Financial News Writer Brenden Rearick reports:“InvestorPlace has tasked ChatGPT time and again with selecting high-growth assets across the stock market and crypto world. The chatbot, while not necessarily up-to-date on stock market news, possesses a keen quantitative analysis skill…”With this in mind, I tasked ChatGPT with identifying the next trillion-dollar company. While the chatbot can’t make direct predictions, it did provide me with a list of companies that it thinks have the potential to reach the trillion-dollar mark. When first asked, it named the sectors that it sees as having trillion-dollar potential: artificial intelligence, healthcare technology, electric and autonomous vehicles, fintech and renewable energy. A few questions later, it named companies from each one that it saw as having the best potential.Let’s take a look at what ChatGPT thinks will be the next trillion-dollar companies.Amazon Source: Sundry Photography / Shutterstock.comWith a market cap of $970 billion, Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) is dangerously close to hitting $1 trillion. ChatGPT touts the e-commerce giant for its wide-range applications across many sectors. It specifically highlights Amazon’s recent investments in AI and robotics, making it clear that it sees this emerging market as the company’s ticket to a trillion-dollar valuation. This includes a recent partnership with AI startup Hugging Face, which offers Amazon exposure to a lucrative new section of the AI field. As the bot states:“As the company continues to expand into new markets, such as healthcare and advertising, and invest in emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and robotics, it could potentially continue to grow and reach a $1 trillion valuation.”NextEra Energy Source: madamF / Shutterstock.comChatGPT clearly recognizes the power and potential of the renewable energy sector. NextEra Energy (NYSE:NEE) is one of the field’s leaders, with vast holdings and an impressive market share. ChatGPT definitely sees it as a great play among clean energy companies. As it states:“NextEra Energy is already one of the world’s largest producers of wind and solar power, and its focus on renewable energy and sustainability could help it continue to grow and reach a $1 trillion valuation.”Additionally, the company is ranked as a winner among dividend stocks and carries significant appeal for less risk-averse investors. All this bodes well for its future as a potential trillion-dollar winner.Moderna Source: Ascannio / Shutterstock.comModerna (NASDAQ:MRNA) enjoyed a race to the top during the Covid-19 vaccine rush, securing its place among pharmaceutical winners. Now, ChatGPT believes it has trillion-dollar potential due to its applications in healthcare technology. While the bot did not get specific in its reasoning, it provided the following breakdown:“Moderna is a biotechnology company that has gained significant attention and market value during the COVID-19 pandemic due to its successful development of an mRNA vaccine. As the company continues to develop and commercialize other mRNA-based treatments, it could potentially reach a $1 trillion valuation.”It’s also worth noting that ChatGPT considers MRNA to be a meme stock. When Rearick asked it for a list of the best meme stocks to buy, its top 10 picks included Moderna. That said, this categorization is likely due to 2021 data, as during that year the stock made many headlines.Nvidia Source: Hairem / Shutterstock.comIt’s not surprising that this AI standout would be ranked among future trillion-dollar winners. A Silicon Valley darling with wide-ranging applications, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is often noted for its potential to help power the AI boom. When I asked ChatGPT for a list of the best AI stocks to buy, it ranked Nvidia among its top picks, second only to actual trillion-dollar company Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL). This time around, it provided a detailed breakdown of why it sees Nvidia reaching the same level:“Nvidia is a leading semiconductor and graphics processing unit (GPU) company that has been on a steady growth trajectory in recent years, with a current market capitalization of around $500 billion. There are several reasons why some analysts and investors believe that Nvidia has the potential to reach a $1 trillion valuation in the future.”These reasons included “dominance in the AI and data center markets,” “diversification into new markets,” and high investor confidence as well as impressive financials. Nvidia’s market cap is actually $586 billion, a reminder that ChatGPT’s data is limited to 2021 and earlier. However, the rest of the reasoning holds up.IlluminaSource: shutterstock.com/Romix ImageThis name isn’t as well-known as the other stocks that ChatGPT named as potential trillion-dollar winners. But that doesn’t mean investors should count Illumina (NASDAQ:ILMN) out. As InvestorPlace contributor Larry Ramer notes, the biotech company is a leader in the field of gene sequencing, which he describes as a “key to unlocking precision medicine.” ChatGPT has a similar take, citing multiple reasons to be bullish on ILMN. As it states:“Illumina is a leading company in the genomics and genetic testing space, providing genetic sequencing and analysis solutions to researchers, clinicians, and biotech companies. There are several factors that could contribute to the company’s growth potential.”The chatbot highlights the company’s history of innovation while also naming “increasing demand for genetic testing” and “expansion into new markets” as factors for why it sees so much potential, as well as its focus on partnerships and diversification of products.Tesla Source: Roschetzky Photography / Shutterstock.comIt’s no surprise that such a popular company would be on this list, especially after ChatGPT named electric and autonomous vehicles as a top opportunity. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is considered a leader in both fields.While its autonomous driving technology has come under fire after multiple accidents, it remains firmly ahead of many competitors. Additionally, it still has its place at the front of the EV race, even as competitors close in. As InvestorPlace contributor Bret Kenwell reports, Tesla has already been in the trillion-dollar club and it could get there again. ChatGPT has a similar perspective. Per the bot:“Tesla is currently the largest automaker by market capitalization, with a market cap [near] $600 billion. As the company continues to expand its electric vehicle production and autonomous driving capabilities, it could potentially reach a $1 trillion valuation.”BlockSource: Sergei Elagin / Shutterstock.comConstantly hailed as a winner in the fintech space, Block (NYSE:SQ) has emerged as a mobile payments leader. Led by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, the company is recovering from a volatile year. But this isn’t the first time that ChatGPT has selected it as a stock with significant growth potential. InvestorPlace Assistant News Writer Shrey Dua recently asked the bot for a list of tech stocks with high five-year growth potential. It ranked Block just below Nvidia on a list that included Apple and Amazon. Here’s what it told me about SQ stock:“[Block] has been on a steady growth trajectory since its founding in 2009 and has already reached a market capitalization of over $100 billion. With its focus on innovative financial solutions for small businesses, the company could potentially continue to grow and reach a $1 trillion valuation.”As a result of its difficult 2022, Block no longer boasts such a high market cap. As of this writing, it sits at $43 billion. If markets turn around in 2023, though, SQ could easily make up the ground it has lost.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":212,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9949455436,"gmtCreate":1678848231825,"gmtModify":1678848234879,"author":{"id":"3586990023332519","authorId":"3586990023332519","name":"StarGate","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9db084b2eae373a6cc56043329defb07","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586990023332519","idStr":"3586990023332519"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Expect the unexpected?

Ultimately, the Fed is going to end up having to fight inflation.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":301,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9957959736,"gmtCreate":1676942151926,"gmtModify":1676942166357,"author":{"id":"3586990023332519","authorId":"3586990023332519","name":"StarGate","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9db084b2eae373a6cc56043329defb07","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586990023332519","idStr":"3586990023332519"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"good info.","listText":"good info.","text":"good info.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9957959736","repostId":"2312279206","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2312279206","pubTimestamp":1676937873,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2312279206?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-21 08:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nvidia May See a Significant Opportunity From Generative AI, but Challenges Remain","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2312279206","media":"Seekingalpha","summary":"Generative artificial intelligence, and in particular ChatGPT, has taken the investment world by sto","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Generative artificial intelligence, and in particular ChatGPT, has taken the investment world by storm in recent months and companies like Microsoft and Google have noticed.</p><p>While some of the benefits (and pitfalls) of the technology may go to the world&#39;s largest tech companies, advanced semiconductor companies such as Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) may also benefit from the trend, investment firm KeyBanc Capital Markets said.</p><p>In a research note, analyst John Vinh said Nvidia (NVDA) is the &#34;clear outsized beneficiary&#34; among semiconductor companies for generative AI thanks to the technology&#39;s heavy compute needs.</p><p>Specifically for OpenAI&#39;s ChatGPT - which has some issues, as evidenced by Microsoft&#39;s (MSFT) recent defense of its chatbot for its new Bing search engine that is based on ChatGPT technology - Vinh believes the training cluster to help train the transformer language model is running roughly 10,000 A100 graphics processing unit, or GPUs, from the Jensen Hunag-led company</p><p>&#34;At $10K in [average selling prices], this would represent ~$100M in revenues,&#34; Vinh wrote in a note to clients.</p><p>Vinh added that ChatGPT is likely also using GPUs for AI inferencing as well, though the number needed for this task is believed to be &#34;significantly less&#34; than the need for the training cluster.</p><p>Despite these opportunities, not everything is rosy for GPU usage when it comes to generative AI.</p><p>Some companies, such as Google (GOOG) (GOOGL), may opt to use tensor processing units, or TPUs, for its own training.

The rise in popularity among AI image generators like <b>Jasper</b> and <b>DeepAI</b> last year were just the early stages of the much larger boom happening right now. Tools like <b>OpenAI’s</b> ChatGPT have taken the world by storm, for better or for worse. Now, anybody can go to theChatGPT website(when it’s not at capacity) and ask it any question they want. I decided to ask it which cryptos to buy.</p><p>There’s <i>a lot</i> that goes into AI algorithms and programming, so much so that it soars over the head of the layman. It’s these seemingly-unending layers of engineering that allow us to prompt the tool to fix our code, write us stories or explain complex subjects to us. In making investment decisions, the tool works no differently.</p><p>I recently logged onto ChatGPT and asked it to recommend me 10 cryptos to buy based on growth potential. This is the list it gave me:</p><ul><li><b>Ethereum</b>(<b>ETH-USD</b>)</li><li><b>Solana</b>(<b><u>SOL-USD</u></b>)</li><li><b>Polkadot</b>(<b><u>DOT-USD</u></b>)</li><li><b>Avalanche</b>(<b><u>AVAX-USD</u></b>)</li><li><b>Cosmos</b>(<b><u>ATOM-USD</u></b>)</li><li><b>Chainlink</b>(<b><u>LINK-USD</u></b>)</li><li><b>Algorand</b>(<b>ALGO-USD</b>)</li><li><b>Polygon</b>(<b>MATIC-USD</b>)</li><li><b>Terra</b>(<b>LUNA-USD</b>)</li><li><b>Binance Coin</b>(<b>BNB-USD</b>)</li></ul><p><b>ChatGPT Explains Its “Cryptos to Buy” Methodology</b></p><p>ChatGPT’s recommended list of cryptos to buy is pretty interesting. I asked it to explain its methodology a bit, and was surprised to find that the tool utilizes both qualitative and quantitative data in weighing its opinions.</p><p>Unsurprisingly, the first thing ChatGPT used to make its recommendation was quantitative chart analysis — a favorite methodology used by crypto die-hards far and wide:</p><blockquote>“I selected the top 10 cryptocurrencies with the highest market capitalizations, which are generally considered to be the most established and widely adopted cryptocurrencies in the market. From there, I considered their historical performance, looking at factors such as price trends, trading volume and market share to identify which cryptocurrencies have demonstrated strong growth potential over time.”</blockquote><p>What was more interesting was ChatGPT’s use of qualitative data in weighing its picks. The AI says it analyzes each products’ “underlying technology, use cases, adoption and regulatory environment” in making its selections.</p><p><b>ChatGPT Defends Its Picks for Cryptos to Buy</b></p><p>This holistic approach to crypto analysis ensures the AI makes recommendations based less on price momentum and more on strong fundamentals. However, seeing some interesting inclusions (and one very noticeable exclusion), I felt the need to press it more.</p><p>Why Terra? The project has seen complete and utter failure at the hands of poor management in the last year, and its founder has been on the run from the law ever since the original project imploded and bankrupted several companies. ChatGPT admits it could be a lack of information which prompted the pick; indeed, if the tool had data on the project since its mid-May collapse, it would likely have better judgement than to pick a project many consider flawed and unwanted by the community at-large.</p><p>And, of course, why is there no <b>Bitcoin</b>(<b>BTC-USD</b>)? It’s the largest of cryptos, easily the most recognizable and the one which prompted the crypto movement in the first place. It appears that from both quantitative and qualitative standpoints, ChatGPT remains skeptical of Bitcoin’s future:</p><blockquote>“While [Bitcoin] may continue to grow over time, it may not experience the same level of growth as some of the newer cryptocurrencies that are still in the early stages of development. Additionally, Bitcoin’s use case is primarily as a store of value and a digital currency, whereas some of the other cryptocurrencies that I recommended have more specific use cases and potential for growth in specific industries or markets.”</blockquote><p><b>Who Does ChatGPT Expect to Win the Layer-1 Race?</b></p><p>As for the rest of the list of cryptos to buy, investors might be impressed by ChatGPT’s crypto picking abilities. Lots of the other cryptos recommended are wildly popular projects, and they all have great potential for growth. One thing to note is that seven of the ten are primarily layer-1 dapp networks. Binance hosts a BNB Chain alongside its exchange platform, making for a total of eight.</p><p>With this in mind, I was interested in hearing ChatGPT’s take on the battle between layer-1 networks to compete with and potentially overtake Ethereum. It positions Solana, Polkadot and Avalanche as three of the most likely projects to surpass Ethereum in the coming years.</p><p>Solana, it says, has an edge due to its low cost and high scalability, but notes a downside in its “proof of history” consensus mechanism being nascent and untested as opposed to proof of stake. Meanwhile, the AI praises Polkadot’s interoperability, but acknowledges the project’s governance structure “could lead to potential centralization issues in the future.”</p><p>Regarding Avalanche, the program speaks highly of its own unique consensus. But, it acknowledges the drawback that like Solana, it is unproven, and like Polkadot, it could lead to higher centralization.</p><p>In all, the AI provides some very nuanced takes on each project. I am quite impressed by the depth at which ChatGPT analyzes these investments, and many other investors likely feel the same. However, the drawbacks are quite clear, as it seems to lack the most up-to-date information on each project. In a market where news moves exceptionally fast and projects can soar or tank in minutes, this is a major fault line in the tool.</p><p>For this, the AI is very careful to respond to each question with the ever-popular crypto catchphrase of “do your own research.” For example, it stated, “Conduct your own research and consider all available information, including any potential risks and challenges, before making any investment decisions.” When pressed on whether or not asking the tool these questions <i>was</i> doing my own research, it pointed me to speak with investing professionals before buying any of its recommendations.</p><p><b>What Does ChatGPT See for the Future of Crypto?</b></p><p>Obviously, ChatGPT has a robust set of data on the cryptocurrency world. And, it can pick from this pool of data to give some insightful opinions on individual projects. Before logging off to free up capacity for other curious users, I had to hear the AI’s predictions for the future of crypto.</p><p>The model assumes a fairly positive outlook for the crypto market in 2023. It predicts an overall-bullish trajectory for the industry, primarily due to the increasing adoption of crypto and blockchain technology by institutions. “We have seen more and more companies and financial institutions embrace cryptocurrencies as a legitimate asset class, and this trend is expected to continue.” It also gives credit to the increasing functionality of new projects as a reason to believe more investors will enter into the space.</p><p>Moreover, the model has a more optimistic take on regulations than many may care to admit. Indeed, while the Securities &amp; Exchange Commission, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the European Union and countless others crack down on projects, the AI argues this is good news.

The rise in popularity among AI image generators like Jasper and DeepAI last year were just the early stages of the much larger boom happening right now. Tools like OpenAI’s ChatGPT have taken the world by storm, for better or for worse. Now, anybody can go to theChatGPT website(when it’s not at capacity) and ask it any question they want. I decided to ask it which cryptos to buy.There’s a lot that goes into AI algorithms and programming, so much so that it soars over the head of the layman. It’s these seemingly-unending layers of engineering that allow us to prompt the tool to fix our code, write us stories or explain complex subjects to us. In making investment decisions, the tool works no differently.I recently logged onto ChatGPT and asked it to recommend me 10 cryptos to buy based on growth potential. This is the list it gave me:Ethereum(ETH-USD)Solana(SOL-USD)Polkadot(DOT-USD)Avalanche(AVAX-USD)Cosmos(ATOM-USD)Chainlink(LINK-USD)Algorand(ALGO-USD)Polygon(MATIC-USD)Terra(LUNA-USD)Binance Coin(BNB-USD)ChatGPT Explains Its “Cryptos to Buy” MethodologyChatGPT’s recommended list of cryptos to buy is pretty interesting. I asked it to explain its methodology a bit, and was surprised to find that the tool utilizes both qualitative and quantitative data in weighing its opinions.Unsurprisingly, the first thing ChatGPT used to make its recommendation was quantitative chart analysis — a favorite methodology used by crypto die-hards far and wide:“I selected the top 10 cryptocurrencies with the highest market capitalizations, which are generally considered to be the most established and widely adopted cryptocurrencies in the market. From there, I considered their historical performance, looking at factors such as price trends, trading volume and market share to identify which cryptocurrencies have demonstrated strong growth potential over time.”What was more interesting was ChatGPT’s use of qualitative data in weighing its picks. The AI says it analyzes each products’ “underlying technology, use cases, adoption and regulatory environment” in making its selections.ChatGPT Defends Its Picks for Cryptos to BuyThis holistic approach to crypto analysis ensures the AI makes recommendations based less on price momentum and more on strong fundamentals. However, seeing some interesting inclusions (and one very noticeable exclusion), I felt the need to press it more.Why Terra? The project has seen complete and utter failure at the hands of poor management in the last year, and its founder has been on the run from the law ever since the original project imploded and bankrupted several companies. ChatGPT admits it could be a lack of information which prompted the pick; indeed, if the tool had data on the project since its mid-May collapse, it would likely have better judgement than to pick a project many consider flawed and unwanted by the community at-large.And, of course, why is there no Bitcoin(BTC-USD)? It’s the largest of cryptos, easily the most recognizable and the one which prompted the crypto movement in the first place. It appears that from both quantitative and qualitative standpoints, ChatGPT remains skeptical of Bitcoin’s future:“While [Bitcoin] may continue to grow over time, it may not experience the same level of growth as some of the newer cryptocurrencies that are still in the early stages of development. Additionally, Bitcoin’s use case is primarily as a store of value and a digital currency, whereas some of the other cryptocurrencies that I recommended have more specific use cases and potential for growth in specific industries or markets.”Who Does ChatGPT Expect to Win the Layer-1 Race?As for the rest of the list of cryptos to buy, investors might be impressed by ChatGPT’s crypto picking abilities. Lots of the other cryptos recommended are wildly popular projects, and they all have great potential for growth. One thing to note is that seven of the ten are primarily layer-1 dapp networks. Binance hosts a BNB Chain alongside its exchange platform, making for a total of eight.With this in mind, I was interested in hearing ChatGPT’s take on the battle between layer-1 networks to compete with and potentially overtake Ethereum. It positions Solana, Polkadot and Avalanche as three of the most likely projects to surpass Ethereum in the coming years.Solana, it says, has an edge due to its low cost and high scalability, but notes a downside in its “proof of history” consensus mechanism being nascent and untested as opposed to proof of stake. Meanwhile, the AI praises Polkadot’s interoperability, but acknowledges the project’s governance structure “could lead to potential centralization issues in the future.”Regarding Avalanche, the program speaks highly of its own unique consensus. But, it acknowledges the drawback that like Solana, it is unproven, and like Polkadot, it could lead to higher centralization.In all, the AI provides some very nuanced takes on each project. I am quite impressed by the depth at which ChatGPT analyzes these investments, and many other investors likely feel the same. However, the drawbacks are quite clear, as it seems to lack the most up-to-date information on each project. In a market where news moves exceptionally fast and projects can soar or tank in minutes, this is a major fault line in the tool.For this, the AI is very careful to respond to each question with the ever-popular crypto catchphrase of “do your own research.” For example, it stated, “Conduct your own research and consider all available information, including any potential risks and challenges, before making any investment decisions.” When pressed on whether or not asking the tool these questions was doing my own research, it pointed me to speak with investing professionals before buying any of its recommendations.What Does ChatGPT See for the Future of Crypto?Obviously, ChatGPT has a robust set of data on the cryptocurrency world. And, it can pick from this pool of data to give some insightful opinions on individual projects. Before logging off to free up capacity for other curious users, I had to hear the AI’s predictions for the future of crypto.The model assumes a fairly positive outlook for the crypto market in 2023. It predicts an overall-bullish trajectory for the industry, primarily due to the increasing adoption of crypto and blockchain technology by institutions. “We have seen more and more companies and financial institutions embrace cryptocurrencies as a legitimate asset class, and this trend is expected to continue.” It also gives credit to the increasing functionality of new projects as a reason to believe more investors will enter into the space.Moreover, the model has a more optimistic take on regulations than many may care to admit. Indeed, while the Securities & Exchange Commission, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the European Union and countless others crack down on projects, the AI argues this is good news. It says these regulators are “providing greater clarity and legitimacy to the market, which could in turn drive increased adoption.” This, it contends, would then put pressure on regulators to provide clearer guidance to facilitate the entry of more projects onto the market.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":177,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9957065587,"gmtCreate":1676786966650,"gmtModify":1676786970729,"author":{"id":"3586990023332519","authorId":"3586990023332519","name":"StarGate","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9db084b2eae373a6cc56043329defb07","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586990023332519","idStr":"3586990023332519"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"U

The Tesla chief acquired 73,486,938 shares in the social media company on March 14. The purchase immediately made Elon Musk the single largest shareholder of Twitter and raised speculation as to how &#34;passive&#34; the out-spoken billionaire is going to be. While Elon Musk&#39;s ultimate ambition regarding Twitter is not known, the market has been electrified by the acquisition, which could translate to additional valuation gains.

Twitter&#39;s free cash flow margins decreased in FY 2021, but this is chiefly due to higher capital expenditures and a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-time litigation-related net charge of $766M in the third-quarter.

Despite a large increase in the valuation of Twitter, I believe the firm's commercial growth is still cheap and the risk profile remains heavily skewed to the upside.Data by YChartsPrevious position on TwitterMonths ago, I presented Twitter as a potential investment due to the firm's undervalued ad business, strong user growth and significant free cash flow generation of the platform. While Twitter may be a controversial investment for some, I do not take political sides and have been focused solely on the firm's strong platform metrics, especially with respect to average monetizable daily active usage.Twitter's mDAUs soared to 217M in Q4'21 with growth especially pronounced in the platform's international business. International mDAUs surged 24M in Q4'21, year over year, to a record of 179M. In percentage terms, the international business grew at a 15% year over year rate. While growth is much more modest in the U.S., Twitter is still growing in its domestic market: the micro-blogging platform added 1M new mDAUs to its business in the last quarter, which calculates to a 2% year over year growth rate.TwitterElon Musk's investment in Twitter is a potential game-changer for the micro-blogging platformIt was revealed yesterday that Elon Musk acquired a 9.2% stake in Twitter, sending shares of the platform soaring more than 27%. The Tesla chief acquired 73,486,938 shares in the social media company on March 14. The purchase immediately made Elon Musk the single largest shareholder of Twitter and raised speculation as to how \"passive\" the out-spoken billionaire is going to be. While Elon Musk's ultimate ambition regarding Twitter is not known, the market has been electrified by the acquisition, which could translate to additional valuation gains. Twitter has often been criticized for violating principles of free speech and a more activist role of Elon Musk could result in some positive change on Twitter's platform.Significant free cash flow valueThe acquisition of a 9.2% stake in Twitter has been a strong catalyst for shares of Twitter so far, but the real value of the social media company is its large user base and potential for material advertising revenue and free cash flow growth in the coming years. Twitter's free cash flow margins decreased in FY 2021, but this is chiefly due to higher capital expenditures and a one-time litigation-related net charge of $766M in the third-quarter. If it wasn't for the settlement of a shareholder class action lawsuit, Twitter's free cash flow would have been positive in FY 2021.Twitter's ad business shows a lot of promise as well. The ad business recovered strongly in FY 2021 and total advertising revenues surged 40% year over year to $4.5B. Twitter's ad revenues in the fourth-quarter soared 22% year over year to $1.41B.TwitterI believe Twitter could generate up to $600M in free cash flow in FY 2022 which would calculate to a free cash flow margin of around 10%.

The long-term opportunity lies in becoming a foundational enterprise operating system capable of integrating structured and unstructured data for real-time intelligence. However, a number of notable red flags warrant caution. The primary red flags include slowing sales, an unusual go-to-market shift, rapidly decelerating profitability, and an elevated valuation which offers limited margin for error.</p><p><b>Risk/Reward Rating: Neutral</b></p><p>Palantir has an unusual business model compared to its peers in the enterprise software sector in regard to how it acquires and grows its customer base. The company categorizes its customers according to three phases of development or cohorts: (1) Acquire, (2) Expand, and (3) Scale. While they are generic terms that are applicable to all businesses, they are unique in the case of Palantir due to how the company approaches its customers.</p><p><b>Customer Detail</b></p><p>Palantir defines a customer in the Acquire cohort as one that has generated less than $100,000 of revenue as of year-end while being unprofitable to Palantir. The Expand cohort is characterized by a customer that generated more than $100,000 of sales yet remained unprofitable. Finally, the Scale cohort is defined as a customer that has generated more than $100,000 of revenue while being a profitable relationship for Palantir during the year.</p><p>The following tables were compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q filed with the SEC. The first table displays Palantir’s 2020 sales from each of the client cohorts which were categorized at the end of 2020 (2020 Revenue). In the 2021 Annualized column, you will find the sales of each of these 2020 customer cohorts through Q3 2021 annualized. In the second set of tables, I have compiled key details regarding Palantir’s largest customers over the past twelve months, as well as critical details pertaining to customers that are new to Palantir in 2021 which are not yet assigned to a cohort. Cohort categorization occurs at the end of each year.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0e38ee31a1d6e826d2d02216e39ac570\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"151\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b4dc61112528e104ef0d3a8dc80f89d1\" tg-width=\"581\" tg-height=\"481\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p>For ease of comparison, I have color-coded the information that is related. One of the dominant realities for Palantir is its concentrated customer base, which is highlighted in blue. Palantir has only 203 customers, with the top 20 accounting for 58% of sales.</p><p>By definition, Palantir’s largest customers are in the Scale cohort. Through the first three quarters of 2021, the Scale cohort (categorized as such at the end of 2020) is growing at an annualized rate of 20%. Given that this group accounts for 86% of Palantir’s revenue, it will be challenging to move the sales growth needle materially above 20% without explosive growth from the other two cohorts or a material acceleration from the Scale cohort. It should be noted that management is guiding to 30% annual sales growth through mid-decade.</p><p>The 2020 year-end Acquire and Expand cohorts are highlighted in yellow in the upper table. New customers in 2021 will not be assigned to a cohort until the year-end Palantir report. I have highlighted the pertinent 2021 new customer data in yellow for easy comparison to the 2020 Acquire and Expand customer cohorts. I view the 2021 new customer sales performance excluding sales to Investees to be a sustainable core growth rate. The Investee customer acquisition strategy is extraordinarily unusual and carries an exceedingly high capital risk which introduces reputational and, therefore, brand risk.</p><p>Please note that Investee here refers to customers that Palantir has purchased the stock of in return for the Investee using Palantir’s software. Meaning, the revenue from Investees is a reciprocation of Palantir investing in the shares of these customers. In this respect, these are not arm’s-length transactions. I believe the new client numbers excluding sales to Investees is an important data point for ascertaining a purely market-based new customer growth rate.</p><p>Similar to the Scale cohort growth rate annualizing at 20% in 2021, the new customer sales growth rate is annualizing at 22% through Q3 2021 compared to the $20.6 million of sales from the Acquire and Expand cohorts of 2020. While this is not a perfect comparison for sales growth from new customers, it is a fair estimation. As a result, Palantir appears to be trending toward an underlying sales growth rate closer to 20% than the company’s 30% sales growth guidance through mid-decade.</p><p><b>Investees</b></p><p>It is important to step back and review Palantir’s investments in Investees as this is an extraordinarily unusual go-to-market strategy for customer acquisition. The above numbers, which suggest revenue growth is trending toward 20%, place Palantir’s use of its balance sheet cash to fund new customers in a new light. The following tables were compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q. The first table lists companies that Palantir has funded as of the end of Q3 2021. The second table displays Palantir’s investment commitments to new companies that are not yet funded.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4dda111182479c1fbaddc642369e4bd3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"264\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p>I have conducted a cursory review of each of the above companies. The common theme is that they are all early-stage companies in the most popular growth sectors. These sectors include EVs, robotics, flying electric vehicles, satellite services and drug discovery. None of the Investees appears to offer enough appreciation potential in its own right to move the needle materially for Palantir’s valuation. Palantir’s ownership stake ranges from 0.4% to 1.6%.</p><p>It remains unclear how much of each company’s funding can be spent on Palantir’s software. Furthermore, it is not clear if the $19 million of revenue through Q3 2021 from these companies is sustainable.</p><p>I have highlighted in blue Palantir’s total investment of $150 million in the seven companies. The yellow highlighted cell represents the current valuation of the investments. Palantir is now down approximately $64 million on these seven companies alone. This highlights an extreme risk for this method of customer acquisition as the capital losses to date dwarf the revenue generated. There are other private company investments not listed above, however, Palantir does not break out the details. They are included in other assets on Palantir’s balance sheet which amounted to $116 million as of Q3 2021.</p><p>The following table displays Palantir’s commitments to invest in new companies as of Q3 2021. I have highlighted in yellow the two companies that Palantir funded subsequent to the end of Q3 2021.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e06664e25242d0bacb6f2a64a7a80228\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"526\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p>I have highlighted in blue the total funding commitment for new investments as of Q3 2021. This is $252 million on top of the $150 million completed prior to the end of Q3. While I have not looked into these particular companies, they appear similar to the first seven investments reviewed above. Meaning, they appear to carry extreme capital risk with upside potential that is likely to be minimal when compared to the valuation upside inherent in Palantir’s software business. It should be noted that recent valuations were extreme and continue to contract rapidly. As a result, the timing risk for capital loss is also heightened by making the investments at the top of the VC/IPO cycle.</p><p><b>Financial Performance</b></p><p>Turning to Palantir’s recent performance, I have chosen to view sales growth excluding the Investees as this is the most likely sustainable growth trajectory. The following table was compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q filed with the SEC. I made an adjustment by removing Investee revenue to arrive at a net revenue figure.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b09c2f2aada9cb30c8b720be23d096e2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"156\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p>I have highlighted in yellow the 29% revenue growth in Q3 2021 after removing the Investee revenue. Investees added 6.5% to growth in Q3. Year-to-date, the Investee revenue accounted for 1.7% revenue growth. The 29% growth rate is already decelerating beneath the company’s 30% growth guidance through mid-decade. Keep in mind that the Investee revenue stream will grow with additional funding of Palantir’s investment commitments. Regardless, growth is decelerating rapidly at 29% in Q3 compared to 41% year-to-date excluding these non-arm’s-length sales.</p><p><b>Geographic &amp; Segment Sales</b></p><p>The sales slowdown is being led by France, which contracted 22% through the first three quarters of 2021 (highlighted in orange below). It should be noted that Palantir has had a material relationship with Airbus and the airline industry. This could be a negative read through for an important client and industry. While the US remained the best performer in Q3 2021, growth is slowing rapidly as is evidenced by the blue highlighted cells below. The table was compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q filed with the SEC.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b19bc17658ff1b951eec789ec95deddd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"314\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p>In addition to France, the rest of the world is also slowing rapidly, from 45% through the first nine months of the year to 20% in Q3 2021. Please note that these are reported sales without any adjustments. The following table was compiled from the same SEC filing and highlights that the large sales slowdown in Q3 occurred in the Government segment. Please keep in mind that the Investee revenue is included in the figures below and added approximately 6.5% to the Q3 growth rate in the Commercial segment.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9a553cc3913c2af281262da7b15bdc3c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"278\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p>In summary, the Commercial segment is growing revenue rather steadily, approximately 29% excluding the Investee revenue. However, the Government segment is decelerating rapidly, from 57% through the first nine months of 2021 to 34% in Q3.</p><p><b>Gross Profit &amp; KPI</b></p><p>Palantir’s unusual customer acquisition strategy predates the shift to Investees. The company’s sales and marketing expenses appear to be quite similar to the cost of goods sold for other companies. This is the case because Palantir offers prospective customers free pilot programs as opposed to requiring payment upfront for use of its software. Sales and marketing personnel execute the pilot programs and coordinate solution development in order to generate sales. The following quote from the Q3 2021 10-Q summarizes the situation:</p><blockquote>Sales and marketing costs primarily include salaries, stock-based compensation expense, and benefits for our sales force and personnel involved in executing on pilots and customer growth activities...</blockquote><p>As a result, I view the sales and marketing expense in the case of Palantir to be a cost of goods sold and reduction to gross margin. While this categorization does not affect the bottom line, it does serve to place the reported 78% gross margin in context.</p><p>I believe this perspective on sales and marketing expense is helpful in thinking about Palantir’s business model in relation to other companies and relative valuations that rely on gross profit margins. The following table was compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q and displays the reported cost of revenue and sales and marketing expense adjusted by removing the related stock-based compensation expense from each line item.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/55c5e5fcea6102ca9d0542c130ee1d15\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"501\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p>Notice that the adjusted gross profit growth has slowed considerably to 25% in Q3 (highlighted in blue in the lower portion of the table) compared to 59% through the first nine months of 2021 (highlighted in yellow). The cost of sales is rising rapidly in Q3 2021 compared to the first nine months of the year.</p><p>Palantir utilizes one KPI or Key Performance Indicator to judge performance and inform decision-making, which is referred to as Contribution Margin. It is similar to my adjusted gross margin figure above as can be seen in the following table compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7cc4e966e16c27ea17f99ccb08a18957\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p>Notice that the contribution row is remarkably similar to my adjusted gross profit row in the previous table. Additionally, the growth rate deceleration is similar, as can be seen in the highlighted cells. While 37% is materially different from my estimate of 25% growth, the step change lower from 64% is of similar amplitude.</p><p><b>Operating Income</b></p><p>Turning to operating income, I have adjusted the reported figures once again by removing stock option-related expenses as well as one-off expenses pertaining to the direct listing IPO in 2020. The overriding message is once again one of rapid deceleration. The following table was compiled from the same SEC filing and displays operating expenses excluding sales and marketing expenses, as well as my adjusted operating income estimate.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f5f344c289a598ec7824067b39c04f09\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"479\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p>In the lower section of the table, notice the incredible deceleration in adjusted operating income to 40% growth in Q3 of 2021 compared to 266% growth through the first nine months of the year. General and administrative expenses accelerated rapidly in Q3 2021, while Palantir materially reduced research and development investment to just 5% growth in Q3.</p><p>The research and development investment slowdown could be a negative read through for sales growth as R&amp;D is an integral part of the sales process. Research and development expenses should track the sales cycle through the three customer phases: Acquire, Expand, and Scale. As customer needs are identified by sales and marketing, research and development expenses should respond to increased future sales potential. This does not appear to be happening at the moment.</p><p>As of Q3 2021, Palantir is annualizing at an adjusted operating income run rate of approximately $300 to $320 million, or about $.16 per share. This is a before-tax operating income figure. The primary takeaway from the operating income front is that profitability is slowing rapidly. This provides additional color for the unusual Investee customer acquisition strategy being deployed.</p><p><b>Consensus Growth Estimates</b></p><p>If Palantir is producing at a $320 million adjusted annual operating income run rate and it was taxed at a normalized 25% rate, the current earnings power would be in the $240 million range or $.12 per diluted share. With this information and the growth deceleration outlined above, we can begin to put consensus earnings estimates into context. The following table was compiled from Seeking Alpha and displays consensus earnings and revenue estimates through 2023.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/022fd2d18964776a3e20294c7917548f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"241\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha. Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdox</span></p><p>I have highlighted the 2022 consensus estimates for earnings and sales growth. Notice that the 39% consensus earnings growth estimate for 2022 is in line with the 40% operating income growth posted in Q3 of 2021. Additionally, the sales growth estimate of 30% is just above the 29% adjusted sales growth in Q3 2021 excluding sales to Investees.</p><p>The 39% earnings growth expected for 2022 appears to be at material risk of being too high given the rapid slowdown in operating income to 40% in Q3 2021 compared to 266% through the first nine months of the year. This trajectory would likely place earnings growth for 2022 well below 39%.</p><p>The 30% sales growth estimate for 2022 looks to be achievable given Palantir’s aggressive investment strategy in regard to Investees who then purchase Palantir software. I believe the market will tend to discount Investee sales as I have. Excluding these sales, the revenue growth trajectory appears to be trending closer to 20% than 30% for 2022, which opens the door to further growth disappointment.</p><p>Looking to consensus estimates for 2023, the expected growth rates are remarkably similar to 2022. This straight-line growth forecast through 2023 adds to the risk that consensus estimates could be too high over the coming years. The current trajectory points to growth materially below that expected for 2022 and 2023.</p><p><b>Valuation</b></p><p>Palantir is trading at 87x the consensus earnings estimate for 2021 and 62x that for 2022. Please keep in mind that these are non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) earnings estimates. On a GAAP basis, Palantir continues to produce at a loss. The reported loss in Q3 2021 was $92 million and was $352 million through the first nine months of 2021.</p><p>Using the non-GAAP earnings estimates, 87x current year earnings and 62x forward earnings are extreme valuations from a historical market perspective. That said, they are within the realm of possibility for a growth stock in recent years. When viewed against Palantir’s rapidly slowing sales and operating income growth rates, as well as the heightened risk that consensus estimates may be too high, the current valuation multiples on consensus estimates offer little margin for error.</p><p>On the sales front, Palantir is valued at 17x the consensus 2021 revenue estimate and 13x that for 2022. These are extreme price-to-sales multiples for a large-cap company from a historical perspective. My estimate of core sales growth trending toward 20% excluding Investee revenue suggests that these valuation multiples on sales also offer little margin for error.</p><p>The valuation risks are further elevated when combined with the rapidly slowing operating income growth. Furthermore, as can be seen in my adjusted gross margin figure growing at 25% as of Q3 2021, the Palantir business model may not be supportive of a historically extreme price-to-sales valuation.</p><p><b>Technicals</b></p><p>While the fundamental backdrop points toward little margin for error and subdued excess return potential, the technical setup suggests more meaningful upside return potential.

On the downside, the nearest support lies at the IPO price range near $10. The downside return potential to this level is -25%.

If earnings growth comes in at 25% for 2022 (my estimate of adjusted gross profit growth as of Q3 2021) on top of my estimate of $.12 for the current annual run rate of adjusted earnings after tax, the shares could trade down to $6.

The company is now using its cash to aggressively invest in other companies (Investees) who agree to purchase Palantir’s software.Management continues to guide for 30% sales growth through mid-decade. However, Palantir’s 3-phase business model hints at sales trending lower excluding its Investee sales.Palantir offers extraordinary long-term growth potential which should place it on the watchlist of all growth investors. The investment case rests on the fulcrum between opportunity and red flags.agawa288/iStock via Getty ImagesI am assigning Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) a neutral risk/reward rating as the long-term growth opportunity is counterbalanced by near-term red flags. The long-term opportunity lies in becoming a foundational enterprise operating system capable of integrating structured and unstructured data for real-time intelligence. However, a number of notable red flags warrant caution. The primary red flags include slowing sales, an unusual go-to-market shift, rapidly decelerating profitability, and an elevated valuation which offers limited margin for error.Risk/Reward Rating: NeutralPalantir has an unusual business model compared to its peers in the enterprise software sector in regard to how it acquires and grows its customer base. The company categorizes its customers according to three phases of development or cohorts: (1) Acquire, (2) Expand, and (3) Scale. While they are generic terms that are applicable to all businesses, they are unique in the case of Palantir due to how the company approaches its customers.Customer DetailPalantir defines a customer in the Acquire cohort as one that has generated less than $100,000 of revenue as of year-end while being unprofitable to Palantir. The Expand cohort is characterized by a customer that generated more than $100,000 of sales yet remained unprofitable. Finally, the Scale cohort is defined as a customer that has generated more than $100,000 of revenue while being a profitable relationship for Palantir during the year.The following tables were compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q filed with the SEC. The first table displays Palantir’s 2020 sales from each of the client cohorts which were categorized at the end of 2020 (2020 Revenue). In the 2021 Annualized column, you will find the sales of each of these 2020 customer cohorts through Q3 2021 annualized. In the second set of tables, I have compiled key details regarding Palantir’s largest customers over the past twelve months, as well as critical details pertaining to customers that are new to Palantir in 2021 which are not yet assigned to a cohort. Cohort categorization occurs at the end of each year.Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxSource: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxFor ease of comparison, I have color-coded the information that is related. One of the dominant realities for Palantir is its concentrated customer base, which is highlighted in blue. Palantir has only 203 customers, with the top 20 accounting for 58% of sales.By definition, Palantir’s largest customers are in the Scale cohort. Through the first three quarters of 2021, the Scale cohort (categorized as such at the end of 2020) is growing at an annualized rate of 20%. Given that this group accounts for 86% of Palantir’s revenue, it will be challenging to move the sales growth needle materially above 20% without explosive growth from the other two cohorts or a material acceleration from the Scale cohort. It should be noted that management is guiding to 30% annual sales growth through mid-decade.The 2020 year-end Acquire and Expand cohorts are highlighted in yellow in the upper table. New customers in 2021 will not be assigned to a cohort until the year-end Palantir report. I have highlighted the pertinent 2021 new customer data in yellow for easy comparison to the 2020 Acquire and Expand customer cohorts. I view the 2021 new customer sales performance excluding sales to Investees to be a sustainable core growth rate. The Investee customer acquisition strategy is extraordinarily unusual and carries an exceedingly high capital risk which introduces reputational and, therefore, brand risk.Please note that Investee here refers to customers that Palantir has purchased the stock of in return for the Investee using Palantir’s software. Meaning, the revenue from Investees is a reciprocation of Palantir investing in the shares of these customers. In this respect, these are not arm’s-length transactions. I believe the new client numbers excluding sales to Investees is an important data point for ascertaining a purely market-based new customer growth rate.Similar to the Scale cohort growth rate annualizing at 20% in 2021, the new customer sales growth rate is annualizing at 22% through Q3 2021 compared to the $20.6 million of sales from the Acquire and Expand cohorts of 2020. While this is not a perfect comparison for sales growth from new customers, it is a fair estimation. As a result, Palantir appears to be trending toward an underlying sales growth rate closer to 20% than the company’s 30% sales growth guidance through mid-decade.InvesteesIt is important to step back and review Palantir’s investments in Investees as this is an extraordinarily unusual go-to-market strategy for customer acquisition. The above numbers, which suggest revenue growth is trending toward 20%, place Palantir’s use of its balance sheet cash to fund new customers in a new light. The following tables were compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q. The first table lists companies that Palantir has funded as of the end of Q3 2021. The second table displays Palantir’s investment commitments to new companies that are not yet funded.Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxI have conducted a cursory review of each of the above companies. The common theme is that they are all early-stage companies in the most popular growth sectors. These sectors include EVs, robotics, flying electric vehicles, satellite services and drug discovery. None of the Investees appears to offer enough appreciation potential in its own right to move the needle materially for Palantir’s valuation. Palantir’s ownership stake ranges from 0.4% to 1.6%.It remains unclear how much of each company’s funding can be spent on Palantir’s software. Furthermore, it is not clear if the $19 million of revenue through Q3 2021 from these companies is sustainable.I have highlighted in blue Palantir’s total investment of $150 million in the seven companies. The yellow highlighted cell represents the current valuation of the investments. Palantir is now down approximately $64 million on these seven companies alone. This highlights an extreme risk for this method of customer acquisition as the capital losses to date dwarf the revenue generated. There are other private company investments not listed above, however, Palantir does not break out the details. They are included in other assets on Palantir’s balance sheet which amounted to $116 million as of Q3 2021.The following table displays Palantir’s commitments to invest in new companies as of Q3 2021. I have highlighted in yellow the two companies that Palantir funded subsequent to the end of Q3 2021.Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxI have highlighted in blue the total funding commitment for new investments as of Q3 2021. This is $252 million on top of the $150 million completed prior to the end of Q3. While I have not looked into these particular companies, they appear similar to the first seven investments reviewed above. Meaning, they appear to carry extreme capital risk with upside potential that is likely to be minimal when compared to the valuation upside inherent in Palantir’s software business. It should be noted that recent valuations were extreme and continue to contract rapidly. As a result, the timing risk for capital loss is also heightened by making the investments at the top of the VC/IPO cycle.Financial PerformanceTurning to Palantir’s recent performance, I have chosen to view sales growth excluding the Investees as this is the most likely sustainable growth trajectory. The following table was compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q filed with the SEC. I made an adjustment by removing Investee revenue to arrive at a net revenue figure.Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxI have highlighted in yellow the 29% revenue growth in Q3 2021 after removing the Investee revenue. Investees added 6.5% to growth in Q3. Year-to-date, the Investee revenue accounted for 1.7% revenue growth. The 29% growth rate is already decelerating beneath the company’s 30% growth guidance through mid-decade. Keep in mind that the Investee revenue stream will grow with additional funding of Palantir’s investment commitments. Regardless, growth is decelerating rapidly at 29% in Q3 compared to 41% year-to-date excluding these non-arm’s-length sales.Geographic & Segment SalesThe sales slowdown is being led by France, which contracted 22% through the first three quarters of 2021 (highlighted in orange below). It should be noted that Palantir has had a material relationship with Airbus and the airline industry. This could be a negative read through for an important client and industry. While the US remained the best performer in Q3 2021, growth is slowing rapidly as is evidenced by the blue highlighted cells below. The table was compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q filed with the SEC.Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxIn addition to France, the rest of the world is also slowing rapidly, from 45% through the first nine months of the year to 20% in Q3 2021. Please note that these are reported sales without any adjustments. The following table was compiled from the same SEC filing and highlights that the large sales slowdown in Q3 occurred in the Government segment. Please keep in mind that the Investee revenue is included in the figures below and added approximately 6.5% to the Q3 growth rate in the Commercial segment.Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxIn summary, the Commercial segment is growing revenue rather steadily, approximately 29% excluding the Investee revenue. However, the Government segment is decelerating rapidly, from 57% through the first nine months of 2021 to 34% in Q3.Gross Profit & KPIPalantir’s unusual customer acquisition strategy predates the shift to Investees. The company’s sales and marketing expenses appear to be quite similar to the cost of goods sold for other companies. This is the case because Palantir offers prospective customers free pilot programs as opposed to requiring payment upfront for use of its software. Sales and marketing personnel execute the pilot programs and coordinate solution development in order to generate sales. The following quote from the Q3 2021 10-Q summarizes the situation:Sales and marketing costs primarily include salaries, stock-based compensation expense, and benefits for our sales force and personnel involved in executing on pilots and customer growth activities...As a result, I view the sales and marketing expense in the case of Palantir to be a cost of goods sold and reduction to gross margin. While this categorization does not affect the bottom line, it does serve to place the reported 78% gross margin in context.I believe this perspective on sales and marketing expense is helpful in thinking about Palantir’s business model in relation to other companies and relative valuations that rely on gross profit margins. The following table was compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q and displays the reported cost of revenue and sales and marketing expense adjusted by removing the related stock-based compensation expense from each line item.Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxNotice that the adjusted gross profit growth has slowed considerably to 25% in Q3 (highlighted in blue in the lower portion of the table) compared to 59% through the first nine months of 2021 (highlighted in yellow). The cost of sales is rising rapidly in Q3 2021 compared to the first nine months of the year.Palantir utilizes one KPI or Key Performance Indicator to judge performance and inform decision-making, which is referred to as Contribution Margin. It is similar to my adjusted gross margin figure above as can be seen in the following table compiled from Palantir’s Q3 2021 10-Q.Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxNotice that the contribution row is remarkably similar to my adjusted gross profit row in the previous table. Additionally, the growth rate deceleration is similar, as can be seen in the highlighted cells. While 37% is materially different from my estimate of 25% growth, the step change lower from 64% is of similar amplitude.Operating IncomeTurning to operating income, I have adjusted the reported figures once again by removing stock option-related expenses as well as one-off expenses pertaining to the direct listing IPO in 2020. The overriding message is once again one of rapid deceleration. The following table was compiled from the same SEC filing and displays operating expenses excluding sales and marketing expenses, as well as my adjusted operating income estimate.Source: Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxIn the lower section of the table, notice the incredible deceleration in adjusted operating income to 40% growth in Q3 of 2021 compared to 266% growth through the first nine months of the year. General and administrative expenses accelerated rapidly in Q3 2021, while Palantir materially reduced research and development investment to just 5% growth in Q3.The research and development investment slowdown could be a negative read through for sales growth as R&D is an integral part of the sales process. Research and development expenses should track the sales cycle through the three customer phases: Acquire, Expand, and Scale. As customer needs are identified by sales and marketing, research and development expenses should respond to increased future sales potential. This does not appear to be happening at the moment.As of Q3 2021, Palantir is annualizing at an adjusted operating income run rate of approximately $300 to $320 million, or about $.16 per share. This is a before-tax operating income figure. The primary takeaway from the operating income front is that profitability is slowing rapidly. This provides additional color for the unusual Investee customer acquisition strategy being deployed.Consensus Growth EstimatesIf Palantir is producing at a $320 million adjusted annual operating income run rate and it was taxed at a normalized 25% rate, the current earnings power would be in the $240 million range or $.12 per diluted share. With this information and the growth deceleration outlined above, we can begin to put consensus earnings estimates into context. The following table was compiled from Seeking Alpha and displays consensus earnings and revenue estimates through 2023.Source: Seeking Alpha. Created by Brian Kapp, stoxdoxI have highlighted the 2022 consensus estimates for earnings and sales growth. Notice that the 39% consensus earnings growth estimate for 2022 is in line with the 40% operating income growth posted in Q3 of 2021. Additionally, the sales growth estimate of 30% is just above the 29% adjusted sales growth in Q3 2021 excluding sales to Investees.The 39% earnings growth expected for 2022 appears to be at material risk of being too high given the rapid slowdown in operating income to 40% in Q3 2021 compared to 266% through the first nine months of the year. This trajectory would likely place earnings growth for 2022 well below 39%.The 30% sales growth estimate for 2022 looks to be achievable given Palantir’s aggressive investment strategy in regard to Investees who then purchase Palantir software. I believe the market will tend to discount Investee sales as I have. Excluding these sales, the revenue growth trajectory appears to be trending closer to 20% than 30% for 2022, which opens the door to further growth disappointment.Looking to consensus estimates for 2023, the expected growth rates are remarkably similar to 2022. This straight-line growth forecast through 2023 adds to the risk that consensus estimates could be too high over the coming years. The current trajectory points to growth materially below that expected for 2022 and 2023.ValuationPalantir is trading at 87x the consensus earnings estimate for 2021 and 62x that for 2022. Please keep in mind that these are non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) earnings estimates. On a GAAP basis, Palantir continues to produce at a loss. The reported loss in Q3 2021 was $92 million and was $352 million through the first nine months of 2021.Using the non-GAAP earnings estimates, 87x current year earnings and 62x forward earnings are extreme valuations from a historical market perspective. That said, they are within the realm of possibility for a growth stock in recent years. When viewed against Palantir’s rapidly slowing sales and operating income growth rates, as well as the heightened risk that consensus estimates may be too high, the current valuation multiples on consensus estimates offer little margin for error.On the sales front, Palantir is valued at 17x the consensus 2021 revenue estimate and 13x that for 2022. These are extreme price-to-sales multiples for a large-cap company from a historical perspective. My estimate of core sales growth trending toward 20% excluding Investee revenue suggests that these valuation multiples on sales also offer little margin for error.The valuation risks are further elevated when combined with the rapidly slowing operating income growth. Furthermore, as can be seen in my adjusted gross margin figure growing at 25% as of Q3 2021, the Palantir business model may not be supportive of a historically extreme price-to-sales valuation.TechnicalsWhile the fundamental backdrop points toward little margin for error and subdued excess return potential, the technical setup suggests more meaningful upside return potential. The following 3-year weekly chart offers a bird’s eye view of the potential technical return spectrum. I have highlighted the key resistance levels with orange horizontal lines and the primary support level with a green line.Palantir 3-year weekly chart. (Created by Brian Kapp using a chart from Barchart.com)The return potential to the nearest resistance levels of $19 and $22 is 43% and 65%, respectively. On the downside, the nearest support lies at the IPO price range near $10. The downside return potential to this level is -25%. It should be noted that Palantir’s short trading history of 16 months limits the usefulness of technical analysis. Additionally, with no trading history beneath the IPO price, it is unclear where support will be found if the $10 level is breached to the downside.To estimate downside potential beneath $10, I apply an earnings multiple of 40x the 2022 non-GAAP consensus earnings estimate. This valuation is twice that of the current market averages and would place Palantir shares at $8. This represents -40% downside risk from current levels.If the 39% consensus earnings estimate for 2022 is too high, further downside from $8 is in the realm of possibility. To estimate the downside risk potential if estimates are too high, I apply the same 40x non-GAAP earnings to my estimate of Palantir’s current annual run rate for fully-taxed, non-GAAP profitability. If earnings growth comes in at 25% for 2022 (my estimate of adjusted gross profit growth as of Q3 2021) on top of my estimate of $.12 for the current annual run rate of adjusted earnings after tax, the shares could trade down to $6. This would represent downside risk of -55%.The following daily chart provides a closer look at the technical backdrop.The technical picture suggests heavy resistance between $19 and $22. Given the unrelenting downtrend over the past three months, a near-term bounce is likely. That said, the upside technical potential combined with the downside fundamental potential leaves the shares with a balanced potential return spectrum of 65% to -55% over the near term.SummaryAll told, Palantir should be placed on the watchlist for high-risk growth investors. The long-term opportunity lies in becoming a foundational enterprise operating system capable of integrating structured and unstructured data for real-time intelligence. However, with notable red flags in the mix, caution is in order. The primary red flags include slowing sales, an unusual go-to-market shift, rapidly decelerating profitability, and an elevated valuation which offers limited margin for error. The resulting symmetry between risk and reward results in a neutral rating.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":138,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":804267687,"gmtCreate":1627958978549,"gmtModify":1703498617079,"author":{"id":"3586990023332519","authorId":"3586990023332519","name":"StarGate","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9db084b2eae373a6cc56043329defb07","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586990023332519","idStr":"3586990023332519"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"The market conditions might recover by end of year if more people are being vaccinated and the COVID-19 are being handled in control manner...","listText":"The market conditions might recover by end of year if more people are being vaccinated and the COVID-19 are being handled in control manner...","text":"The market conditions might recover by end of year if more people are being vaccinated and the COVID-19 are being handled in control manner...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/804267687","repostId":"1134094306","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1134094306","pubTimestamp":1627958426,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1134094306?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-03 10:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why the Stock Market Doesn’t Seem to Care About the Latest Surge in Covid Cases","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1134094306","media":"Barrons","summary":"The stock market shrugged off rising Covid-19 infections due to the Delta variant Monday.

Investors awarded the stock with an intraday rally of as much as 6% to a high of close to $166 (April 29th) immediately following release of Apple&#39;s blockbuster results.</p><p>However, persistent market jitters in the days leading up to the May FOMC meeting reversed the earnings beat rally as the stock plunged towards the $150-level. Then, the stock recovered slightly on improved market sentiment following last Wednesday&#39;s (May 4th) Fed decision on a 50 bps rate increase and release of commentary regarding policy tightening plans in coming months. But it lost momentum and slid again alongside broad-based market declines as market participants braced for the &#34;cold reality of tightening financial conditions&#34; that face rising threats of a looming recession.</p><p>Despite current market woes, Apple remains the &#34;single member of the [FAANG] group that is still outperforming the S&amp;P 500&#34; this year. This, again, corroborates investors&#39; debate between prizing the stock for consistent demonstration of fundamental strength and paring valuation premiums on &#34;fears of an economic slowdown&#34;.</p><p>It is true that Apple is not without downside risks. The underlying business remains at the forefront of exposure to protracted industry-wide chip supply shortages and other supply chain constraints that have been compounded by the latest COVID-related lockdowns in China. The challenges are weighing on consumer spending levels in Apple&#39;s Chinese market, and adding fuel to an inflationary environment around raw material, labour and freight costs that risk margin contraction. Management has quantified the estimated impact at $4 billion to $8 billion in the current quarter, with some expected to be recapturable in later quarters, and others foregone permanently. Apple has also highlighted impacts pertaining to its recently pullout from the Russian market following the country&#39;s instigation of war against Ukraine.</p><p>But Apple&#39;s ability to keep wowing investors with stronger-than-expected growth despite a quarter &#34;blighted by Ukraine war, spiking inflation and China&#39;s COVID Zero lockdowns&#34; is what makes the results all the more impressive. And new product and segment launches that await over the coming months and years bolster further expansion of its total addressable market (&#34;TAM&#34;) and reach into installed users&#39; pockets over the longer-term, underscoring greater valuation prospects ahead for the stock.</p><p>The company&#39;s yearslong effort in bringing its strong net cash position down to neutral through attractive shareholder returns in the form of buybacks and dividends is also a &#34;nice struggle&#34; to have. Apple&#39;s strong balance sheet, which provides insulation from rising borrowing costs and sufficient dry powder to fund additional growth in coming years, makes it a safe investment pick in the face of tightening financial conditions. Despite the near-term challenges, Apple remains one of the most attractive investments with remarkable fundamental performance that continues to outshine peers in today&#39;s macro climate.</p><p><b>What is Apple&#39;s Long-Term Outlook? Here&#39;s What Apple&#39;s FY/2Q22 Earnings Beat Suggests:</b></p><p>Apple&#39;s March-quarter results exceeded expectations across the board, including its iPad segment which posted a year-on-year sales decline due to supply constraints. The company generated total revenue of $97.3 billion in the period (+8.6% y/y; -22% q/q), topping consensus estimate of $94 billion (+5% y/y; -24% q/q). Net income came in at $1.52 per share, exceeding the average analyst estimate of $1.42.</p><p>And for the current quarter, management expects the strong showing in its Services segment to continue, which makes sense given its reduced exposure to current supply chain challenges. The anticipated shift in sales mix to higher-margin Services is expected to offset some of increases to product costs in the current inflationary environment. Despite current macro challenges, company has guided gross margin of 42% to 43%, which is still among the best over the past 10 years. And as supply constraints ease over the longer-term with increasing efforts in &#34;accelerating the in-sourcing of key components such as processors, sensors, displays, batteries and cameras&#34;, the company is well-positioned for sustained margin improvements ahead.</p><p><b>iPhone</b></p><p>iPhone sales continued to account for the bulk of the company&#39;s consolidated topline, generating $50.6 billion in revenues (+5% y/y; -29% q/q), which also exceeded the average estimate of $49.2 billion (+3% y/y; -31% q/q). The segment&#39;s outperformance underscored robust demand for the latest 5G-enabled iPhone 13 and iPhone SE devices, despite acute supply constraints and a tough prior year compare which overlapped a late-year iPhone launch timing.</p><p>The upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference (&#34;WWDC&#34;) in June, Apple&#39;s annual keynote event, is also expected to bolster the company&#39;s iPhone sales in the latter half of both the fiscal and calendar year. All eyes are on the iPhone 14 launch expected for later this year. Based on Apple&#39;s &#34;three-year cycle for new hardware designs&#34; observed for the iPhone in recent years, the iPhone 14 will likely retain the exterior design of the iPhone 13 which debuted with the iPhone 12.</p><p>Because larger models typically garner greater demand than the smaller models, there is speculation that Apple will &#34;rethink&#34; its iPhone line-up. It is likely that Apple will offer a 6.7&#34; screen option for a non-Pro model for the first time starting with the iPhone 14, which is expected to capture better customer reception given greater affordability compared to Pro models. If Apple does proceed with such plans, it is also expected to cushion some of the impact from slowing consumer spending in China at the moment given its contracting economy - the max-sized models are particularly popular in region, so offering a more affordable non-Pro option will likely improve Apple&#39;s reach into Chinese consumers&#39; wallets.</p><p>Further improvements to the camera and processing power / performance on the iPhone 14 is also expected to encourage greater upgrades and switches, and buoy continued iPhone segment growth. The iPhone 14 Pro line-up is expected to feature a &#34;new 48-megapixel sensor for the wide-angle camera…[and] get Apple&#39;s new A16 chip&#34;. With more than a quarter of Apple&#39;s iPhone installed base being older than 3.5 years (circa iPhone 8 and iPhone X - I personally still use the iPhone 7 which is considered &#34;vintage&#34; by some of my peers&#34;), the upcoming iPhone 14 upgrades will be hard to resist.</p><p><b>Mac</b></p><p>The Mac also &#34;continued its resurgence&#34;, posting strong double-digit year-on-year growth for the seventh quarter in the past two years with March-quarter sales totalling $10.4 billion (+15% y/y; -4% q/q). The combination of robust demand and supply constraints have now pushed wait times for some of the highly coveted computing devices out to June. And Apple&#39;s transition to its in-house designed silicon has a significant role to play in restoring favourable growth trends observed in recent quarters.</p><p>The M1 Ultra, which powers the Mac Studio desktop, is now the &#34;world&#39;s most powerful chip for PC&#34;. It enables 7x faster performance than its predecessor, drawing favourable demand from creative professionals spanning app developers to video creators looking for computing power that can handle demanding workloads without compromising performance. The reimagined M1 Pro- / Max-powered MacBook Pro has also been a hit.</p><p>With Apple silicon consistently proving quality and performance for the Mac line-up, the company has rapidly rose to the top spot by market share in PC sales. Macs represented 18.8% of total PC shipments in the March-quarter, beating long-time industry leader Dell (DELL) and HPE (HPE). Close to half of Mac buyers in the March-quarter noted they were new to the product, underscoring Apple&#39;s continued market share gains.</p><p><b>iPad</b></p><p>On the iPad front, heightened supply constraints have continued to weigh on sales despite robust demand. iPad sales generated $7.7 billion (-2% y/y; +5% q/q) in revenues in the March-quarter, which still topped average analyst estimates. The segment&#39;s installed base reached a record high, with more than half of iPad customers indicating they were new to the device. The all-new M1-powered iPad Air, which includes 5G support, was also well-received. Despite declining March-quarter iPad sales due to supply constraints, Apple led tablet market sales in the period and grabbed close to 40% of market share, beating rival and runner-up Samsung&#39;s 20.4% by wide margins.</p><p>The iPad remains a market favourite despite softening consumer demand. The rapid transition to remote collaboration in the post-pandemic era has marked an inflection point for adoption of multi-purpose tablets. In addition to robust demand from the retail market, Apple&#39;s iPads have also been in high demand within the commercial sector. During the March-quarter, Apple iPad Pros were procured by Alaska Airlines (ALK) to replace its legacy check-in kiosks, thanks to the portable device&#39;s seamless integration into the airline&#39;s existing operations. With rising deployment of tablet devices in the commercial sector to accommodate rapid digital transformation trends and remote working demands in the post-pandemic era, continued innovation empowered by Apple silicon is expected to drive higher growth for the less-lucrative iPad segment once supply headwinds subside.</p><p><b>Wearables, Home and Accessories</b></p><p>The Wearables, Home and Accessories segment also pulled through with strong double-digit growth in the quarter. Related revenues totalled $8.8 billion (+12% y/y; -40% q/q), consistent with consensus expectations. The category continues to benefit from strong Apple Watch demand driven by increasing consumer preference and attention to health and fitness.</p><p>The company has been ramping up investments into developing new technology offerings for the wearable product to address increasing user demand for health features, including the &#34;highly anticipated blood-pressure monitor&#34; that is expected to debut in 2024, a body-temperature sensor, as well as a &#34;non-invasive blood sugar monitor&#34;. The upcoming watchOS 9 software update debuting in June is also expected to include improvements to the smartwatch&#39;s heart rate monitor, a &#34;new low-power mode that is designed to let its smartwatch run some apps…without using as much battery life&#34;, and additional &#34;workout types and metrics…within the Workout app on the watch&#34;. And later this year, Apple is expected to unveil up to three new Apple Watches that include the highly anticipated Series 8 model, an affordable SE model, and an upscale option with &#34;rugged casing that is aimed at extreme athletes&#34;. The new developments to both software and hardware features are expected to reinforce the segment&#39;s growth prospects by extending its reach to new users while also expanding Apple&#39;s TAM for wearable technology.</p><p><b>Services</b></p><p>Services was a particular bright spot for Apple in the March-quarter. The segment - which houses sales related to Apple Care, App Store, payments, ads, and other subscription services like Apple TV+ and Apple Music - generated revenues of $19.8 billion (+17% y/y; +2% q/q) in the period, which were &#34;slightly above projections&#34;. Apple added more than 165 million net new subscriptions in the past 12 months, bringing its total paid user base for Services to 825 million. And with accelerating penetration into the commercial sector, alongside rapid consumer adoption of Apple media and entertainment subscription services bolstered by its convenient and accessible hardware-service ecosystem, the company has guided double-digit growth again for the current quarter.</p><p><b>Apple TV+:</b> Despite increasing competition within the segment, as evidenced in the hardships experienced by industry leader Netflix (NFLX) in retaining market share over recent months, Apple TV+ continued to deliver on upbeat results, buoyed by positive viewer response to original productions that include &#34;Severance&#34;, &#34;Ted Lasso&#34; and &#34;CODA&#34;, which became the first streaming service to win an Oscar for Best Picture.</p><p>While Apple TV+&#39;s market share of global streaming services remains comparatively nominal when put against rivals like Netflix, HBO Max (WBD), and Disney+ (DIS), the convenient ecosystem Apple maintains to enable easy access remains a strong competitive advantage in driving further share gains in coming years. Apple is well-positioned to benefit from favourable streaming uptake trends ahead with the &#34;seamless integration of hardware, software and services at the center of [its] work and philosophy&#34;. Total consumer spending on entertainment and media is expected to advance at a compounded annual growth rate (&#34;CAGR&#34;) of 3.9% into a $915 billion market of its own by mid-decade. And much of this acceleration will be driven by demand for video streaming services, which is expected to expand at a CAGR of more than 18% over the next five years and blossom into a $190 billion opportunity. As Apple continues to encourage sign-ups with competitively priced offerings like Apple Bundle and engaging content, Apple TV+ has potential for acceleration over the longer-term and further bolster Services growth.</p><p><b>Commercial Services:</b> The company&#39;s increasing penetration into commercial markets with the latest launch of &#34;Apple Business Essentials&#34; also drives greater market share expansion and growth for its Services segment in coming years. The new service offering targeting small- and medium-sized businesses (&#34;SMBs&#34;) pairs well with already-strong uptake rates of Apple devices across the industry, and remains a prudent strategy for driving greater adjacent revenue growth in the Services segment. Apple Business Essentials combines all device management services spanning 24/7 technical support to security and cloud storage into one convenient offering, making Apple device adoption in the workplace a more convenient and efficient process for commercial users.</p><p>With digital transformation being progressively viewed as a business strategy for remaining economically competitive, Apple Business Essentials is expected to further Apple&#39;s capitalization of commercial opportunities ahead. And Apple&#39;s upcoming launch of the &#34;Tap-to-Pay&#34; feature, which will allow SMBs to &#34;accept payments through Apple Pay, credit cards and digital wallets&#34; using near field communication (&#34;NFC&#34;) straight from the iPhone, is also expected to strategically provide mutual reinforcement for both hardware and service sales within the commercial landscape in coming years.</p><p><b>App Store:</b> Continued growth in market demand for mobile applications will also be a boon to Apple&#39;s fast-growing services segment. The global market for mobile applications is expected to grow at a CAGR of 18.4% and reach a market value of more than $400 billion over the next five years. With AAPL hosting one of the largest and most used app stores in the world, it would be reasonable to assume that related revenues would grow at a similar pace.</p><p>Despite mounting global regulatory scrutiny over Apple&#39;s alleged antitrust violations with its App Store, the company&#39;s continued focus on ensuring user privacy, security, and ease of transactions remains key strategies for retaining user adoption. According to a survey of 4,000 Apple product users performed by <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTLW\">Morgan Stanley</a> across the U.S. and China, most have indicated loyalty to Apple&#39;s App store due to the &#34;value of security, privacy and ease of transactions&#34; provided, despite developers pushing for rights to transact outside of Apple&#39;s ecosystem.</p><p><b>What to Look for After Earnings</b></p><p>For the current quarter, management has warned of continuing supply headwinds stemming from COVID-related disruptions and industry-wide silicon shortages. On the demand side, COVID disruptions observed in China - which represents almost a fifth of total Apple sales - have slowed domestic consumption. Paired with the company&#39;s recent pullout from the Russian market following the Ukraine war, which drove a 150 bps decrease to sales growth in the March-quarter, the company is expecting a quantified impact of $4 billion to $8 billion from the combined challenges for the June-quarter.</p><p>But these impacts to the company&#39;s fundamental strength and valuation prospects are expected to remain minimum given their transitory nature. Yes, they will bring about some volatility in the near-term for sure, but the stock&#39;s bullish narrative in the long run, backed by continued growth and a strong balance sheet, remains intact.</p><p><b>China&#39;s COVID Situation:</b> Production at most of Apple&#39;s most notable assemblers in China, including Pegatron, Foxconn and Quanta have resumed after temporary suspensions in response to China&#39;s attempt to curb the resurgence of omicron infections. Most are currently operating out of a &#34;closed-loop system&#34;, where &#34;workers live on-site and are tested regularly&#34; to reduce chances of a widespread outbreak.</p><p>But logistical challenges remain intense due to strict quarantine controls levied on the country&#39;s trucking fleet, which is responsible for transporting about 75% of total freight in China. Key industrial hubs like Jiangsu, Guangdong, Shanxi and Shanghai saw road freight volumes decline by close to a fifth in March compared to the prior year. Only some easing has been observed since late April, as China continues to struggle with getting a grip on persistent infection rates, especially in the Shanghai corridor that houses some of Apple&#39;s final assembly plants. Despite the return to closed-loop operations, the assembly plants are facing heightening risks of exposure to dwindling inventory levels as a result of ongoing logistical challenges. As such, we consider Apple&#39;s recent guidance of an upward adjusted estimate on product disruption for the current quarter a prudent decision in setting market expectations in the near-term.</p><p><b>Silicon Shortages:</b> Industry-wide silicon shortages have been going on more than a year now, with the aftermath of pandemic-era disruptions to production still lingering to this day. Increased demand for chips in the face of accelerating cross-industry digitization, compounded by raw material supply constraints due to the Russia-Ukraine war has also further complicated the situation.</p><p>Apple continues to suffer from the shortage of legacy nodes, which have caused an acute impact to iPad supply. This has led to multiple consecutive periods of declining sales for the segment, despite refreshed demand from both retail and commercial consumers. As the easing timeline on chip shortages remains highly uncertain, we expect related impacts to fluctuate in the range of $3 billion to $6 billion through the rest of the year and potentially through the first half of 2023. This is consistent with observations in the past three quarters prior to added pressure from China&#39;s recent lockdowns and the Russia-Ukraine war.</p><p><b>Russia Exit:</b> Apple noted lost sales growth of about 150 bps in the March-quarter due to its exit from the Russian market following the country&#39;s attack on Ukraine. Considering 9% year-on-year growth observed in the March-quarter, Apple is expected to have lost about $1 billion in sales as a result of pulling out operations from Russia, which is immaterial from both a fundamental and valuations point of view. We also consider Apple&#39;s immediate exit from the Russian market following the onset of the Russia-Ukraine war a prudent move, which precluded the company from exposure to impacts pertaining to ensuing sanctions levied on Russia by the U.S. and its allies.</p><p><b>Tightening Monetary Policy:</b> As discussed in our recent coverage, we consider the Apple stock one of the strongest shields against adverse impacts from the Federal Reserve&#39;s monetary policy tightening measures to quell the hottest inflation in 40 years. While tightening financial conditions have largely deterred investors from risky assets like growth stocks, Apple has remained comparatively resilient given its outperformance of key benchmark indexes still, despite overall year-to-date declines.</p><p>Sustained by robust demand still for its existing offerings, and new opportunities arising from nascent technologies like AR/VR and autonomous vehicles in the long run, Apple is expected to re-emerge from the current market rout stronger than its peers thanks to its fundamental strength. As mentioned in earlier sections, Apple&#39;s strong net cash position also provides sufficient dry powder to fund additional growth in coming years without incurring additional costs of capital amidst rising interest rates.</p><p>The company&#39;s robust balance sheet is also backing generous shareholder returns in the form of share buybacks and dividends, which is a positive gesture under the current market climate. The company returned $27 billion to shareholders in the March-quarter through a combination of $22.9 billion in share buybacks and $3.6 billion in dividends. The company has also promised a dividend increase of 5% to $0.23 per share for the current quarter, and authorized an additional $90 billion in share buybacks as the company works to get its checkbook down to cash neutral over time.</p><p><b>Is Apple Stock a Buy, Sell or Hold?</b></p><p>As Apple continues to press through production challenges and macroeconomic headwinds with outperformance, we are maintaining our 12-month price target for the stock at the $200 to $210 level. This would represent upside potential of more than 30% based on the stock&#39;s last traded share price of $157.28 (May 6th).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e9affb0161f8d6b76919faef35ad6a1e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"238\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Apple Valuation Analysis (Author)</span></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8310753449dc1befdd9f822f1879c478\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"249\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Apple Financial Forecast (Author)</span></p><p>As the broad-based market rout continues amidst still-fluid macroeconomic challenges spanning runaway inflation, tightening monetary policies, hard-to-tame COVID outbreaks, and intensifying geopolitical tensions, the current turmoil in equities could &#34;provide a near-term stock pullback which [could be used] as a buying opportunity&#34;.

Investors awarded the stock with an intraday rally of as much as 6% to a high of close to $166 (April 29th) immediately following release of Apple's blockbuster results.However, persistent market jitters in the days leading up to the May FOMC meeting reversed the earnings beat rally as the stock plunged towards the $150-level. Then, the stock recovered slightly on improved market sentiment following last Wednesday's (May 4th) Fed decision on a 50 bps rate increase and release of commentary regarding policy tightening plans in coming months. But it lost momentum and slid again alongside broad-based market declines as market participants braced for the \"cold reality of tightening financial conditions\" that face rising threats of a looming recession.Despite current market woes, Apple remains the \"single member of the [FAANG] group that is still outperforming the S&P 500\" this year. This, again, corroborates investors' debate between prizing the stock for consistent demonstration of fundamental strength and paring valuation premiums on \"fears of an economic slowdown\".It is true that Apple is not without downside risks. The underlying business remains at the forefront of exposure to protracted industry-wide chip supply shortages and other supply chain constraints that have been compounded by the latest COVID-related lockdowns in China. The challenges are weighing on consumer spending levels in Apple's Chinese market, and adding fuel to an inflationary environment around raw material, labour and freight costs that risk margin contraction. Management has quantified the estimated impact at $4 billion to $8 billion in the current quarter, with some expected to be recapturable in later quarters, and others foregone permanently. Apple has also highlighted impacts pertaining to its recently pullout from the Russian market following the country's instigation of war against Ukraine.But Apple's ability to keep wowing investors with stronger-than-expected growth despite a quarter \"blighted by Ukraine war, spiking inflation and China's COVID Zero lockdowns\" is what makes the results all the more impressive. And new product and segment launches that await over the coming months and years bolster further expansion of its total addressable market (\"TAM\") and reach into installed users' pockets over the longer-term, underscoring greater valuation prospects ahead for the stock.The company's yearslong effort in bringing its strong net cash position down to neutral through attractive shareholder returns in the form of buybacks and dividends is also a \"nice struggle\" to have. Apple's strong balance sheet, which provides insulation from rising borrowing costs and sufficient dry powder to fund additional growth in coming years, makes it a safe investment pick in the face of tightening financial conditions. Despite the near-term challenges, Apple remains one of the most attractive investments with remarkable fundamental performance that continues to outshine peers in today's macro climate.What is Apple's Long-Term Outlook? Here's What Apple's FY/2Q22 Earnings Beat Suggests:Apple's March-quarter results exceeded expectations across the board, including its iPad segment which posted a year-on-year sales decline due to supply constraints. The company generated total revenue of $97.3 billion in the period (+8.6% y/y; -22% q/q), topping consensus estimate of $94 billion (+5% y/y; -24% q/q). Net income came in at $1.52 per share, exceeding the average analyst estimate of $1.42.And for the current quarter, management expects the strong showing in its Services segment to continue, which makes sense given its reduced exposure to current supply chain challenges. The anticipated shift in sales mix to higher-margin Services is expected to offset some of increases to product costs in the current inflationary environment. Despite current macro challenges, company has guided gross margin of 42% to 43%, which is still among the best over the past 10 years. And as supply constraints ease over the longer-term with increasing efforts in \"accelerating the in-sourcing of key components such as processors, sensors, displays, batteries and cameras\", the company is well-positioned for sustained margin improvements ahead.iPhoneiPhone sales continued to account for the bulk of the company's consolidated topline, generating $50.6 billion in revenues (+5% y/y; -29% q/q), which also exceeded the average estimate of $49.2 billion (+3% y/y; -31% q/q). The segment's outperformance underscored robust demand for the latest 5G-enabled iPhone 13 and iPhone SE devices, despite acute supply constraints and a tough prior year compare which overlapped a late-year iPhone launch timing.The upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference (\"WWDC\") in June, Apple's annual keynote event, is also expected to bolster the company's iPhone sales in the latter half of both the fiscal and calendar year. All eyes are on the iPhone 14 launch expected for later this year. Based on Apple's \"three-year cycle for new hardware designs\" observed for the iPhone in recent years, the iPhone 14 will likely retain the exterior design of the iPhone 13 which debuted with the iPhone 12.Because larger models typically garner greater demand than the smaller models, there is speculation that Apple will \"rethink\" its iPhone line-up. It is likely that Apple will offer a 6.7\" screen option for a non-Pro model for the first time starting with the iPhone 14, which is expected to capture better customer reception given greater affordability compared to Pro models. If Apple does proceed with such plans, it is also expected to cushion some of the impact from slowing consumer spending in China at the moment given its contracting economy - the max-sized models are particularly popular in region, so offering a more affordable non-Pro option will likely improve Apple's reach into Chinese consumers' wallets.Further improvements to the camera and processing power / performance on the iPhone 14 is also expected to encourage greater upgrades and switches, and buoy continued iPhone segment growth. The iPhone 14 Pro line-up is expected to feature a \"new 48-megapixel sensor for the wide-angle camera…[and] get Apple's new A16 chip\". With more than a quarter of Apple's iPhone installed base being older than 3.5 years (circa iPhone 8 and iPhone X - I personally still use the iPhone 7 which is considered \"vintage\" by some of my peers\"), the upcoming iPhone 14 upgrades will be hard to resist.MacThe Mac also \"continued its resurgence\", posting strong double-digit year-on-year growth for the seventh quarter in the past two years with March-quarter sales totalling $10.4 billion (+15% y/y; -4% q/q). The combination of robust demand and supply constraints have now pushed wait times for some of the highly coveted computing devices out to June. And Apple's transition to its in-house designed silicon has a significant role to play in restoring favourable growth trends observed in recent quarters.The M1 Ultra, which powers the Mac Studio desktop, is now the \"world's most powerful chip for PC\". It enables 7x faster performance than its predecessor, drawing favourable demand from creative professionals spanning app developers to video creators looking for computing power that can handle demanding workloads without compromising performance. The reimagined M1 Pro- / Max-powered MacBook Pro has also been a hit.With Apple silicon consistently proving quality and performance for the Mac line-up, the company has rapidly rose to the top spot by market share in PC sales. Macs represented 18.8% of total PC shipments in the March-quarter, beating long-time industry leader Dell (DELL) and HPE (HPE). Close to half of Mac buyers in the March-quarter noted they were new to the product, underscoring Apple's continued market share gains.iPadOn the iPad front, heightened supply constraints have continued to weigh on sales despite robust demand. iPad sales generated $7.7 billion (-2% y/y; +5% q/q) in revenues in the March-quarter, which still topped average analyst estimates. The segment's installed base reached a record high, with more than half of iPad customers indicating they were new to the device. The all-new M1-powered iPad Air, which includes 5G support, was also well-received. Despite declining March-quarter iPad sales due to supply constraints, Apple led tablet market sales in the period and grabbed close to 40% of market share, beating rival and runner-up Samsung's 20.4% by wide margins.The iPad remains a market favourite despite softening consumer demand. The rapid transition to remote collaboration in the post-pandemic era has marked an inflection point for adoption of multi-purpose tablets. In addition to robust demand from the retail market, Apple's iPads have also been in high demand within the commercial sector. During the March-quarter, Apple iPad Pros were procured by Alaska Airlines (ALK) to replace its legacy check-in kiosks, thanks to the portable device's seamless integration into the airline's existing operations. With rising deployment of tablet devices in the commercial sector to accommodate rapid digital transformation trends and remote working demands in the post-pandemic era, continued innovation empowered by Apple silicon is expected to drive higher growth for the less-lucrative iPad segment once supply headwinds subside.Wearables, Home and AccessoriesThe Wearables, Home and Accessories segment also pulled through with strong double-digit growth in the quarter. Related revenues totalled $8.8 billion (+12% y/y; -40% q/q), consistent with consensus expectations. The category continues to benefit from strong Apple Watch demand driven by increasing consumer preference and attention to health and fitness.The company has been ramping up investments into developing new technology offerings for the wearable product to address increasing user demand for health features, including the \"highly anticipated blood-pressure monitor\" that is expected to debut in 2024, a body-temperature sensor, as well as a \"non-invasive blood sugar monitor\". The upcoming watchOS 9 software update debuting in June is also expected to include improvements to the smartwatch's heart rate monitor, a \"new low-power mode that is designed to let its smartwatch run some apps…without using as much battery life\", and additional \"workout types and metrics…within the Workout app on the watch\". And later this year, Apple is expected to unveil up to three new Apple Watches that include the highly anticipated Series 8 model, an affordable SE model, and an upscale option with \"rugged casing that is aimed at extreme athletes\". The new developments to both software and hardware features are expected to reinforce the segment's growth prospects by extending its reach to new users while also expanding Apple's TAM for wearable technology.ServicesServices was a particular bright spot for Apple in the March-quarter. The segment - which houses sales related to Apple Care, App Store, payments, ads, and other subscription services like Apple TV+ and Apple Music - generated revenues of $19.8 billion (+17% y/y; +2% q/q) in the period, which were \"slightly above projections\". Apple added more than 165 million net new subscriptions in the past 12 months, bringing its total paid user base for Services to 825 million. And with accelerating penetration into the commercial sector, alongside rapid consumer adoption of Apple media and entertainment subscription services bolstered by its convenient and accessible hardware-service ecosystem, the company has guided double-digit growth again for the current quarter.Apple TV+: Despite increasing competition within the segment, as evidenced in the hardships experienced by industry leader Netflix (NFLX) in retaining market share over recent months, Apple TV+ continued to deliver on upbeat results, buoyed by positive viewer response to original productions that include \"Severance\", \"Ted Lasso\" and \"CODA\", which became the first streaming service to win an Oscar for Best Picture.While Apple TV+'s market share of global streaming services remains comparatively nominal when put against rivals like Netflix, HBO Max (WBD), and Disney+ (DIS), the convenient ecosystem Apple maintains to enable easy access remains a strong competitive advantage in driving further share gains in coming years. Apple is well-positioned to benefit from favourable streaming uptake trends ahead with the \"seamless integration of hardware, software and services at the center of [its] work and philosophy\". Total consumer spending on entertainment and media is expected to advance at a compounded annual growth rate (\"CAGR\") of 3.9% into a $915 billion market of its own by mid-decade. And much of this acceleration will be driven by demand for video streaming services, which is expected to expand at a CAGR of more than 18% over the next five years and blossom into a $190 billion opportunity. As Apple continues to encourage sign-ups with competitively priced offerings like Apple Bundle and engaging content, Apple TV+ has potential for acceleration over the longer-term and further bolster Services growth.Commercial Services: The company's increasing penetration into commercial markets with the latest launch of \"Apple Business Essentials\" also drives greater market share expansion and growth for its Services segment in coming years. The new service offering targeting small- and medium-sized businesses (\"SMBs\") pairs well with already-strong uptake rates of Apple devices across the industry, and remains a prudent strategy for driving greater adjacent revenue growth in the Services segment. Apple Business Essentials combines all device management services spanning 24/7 technical support to security and cloud storage into one convenient offering, making Apple device adoption in the workplace a more convenient and efficient process for commercial users.With digital transformation being progressively viewed as a business strategy for remaining economically competitive, Apple Business Essentials is expected to further Apple's capitalization of commercial opportunities ahead. And Apple's upcoming launch of the \"Tap-to-Pay\" feature, which will allow SMBs to \"accept payments through Apple Pay, credit cards and digital wallets\" using near field communication (\"NFC\") straight from the iPhone, is also expected to strategically provide mutual reinforcement for both hardware and service sales within the commercial landscape in coming years.App Store: Continued growth in market demand for mobile applications will also be a boon to Apple's fast-growing services segment. The global market for mobile applications is expected to grow at a CAGR of 18.4% and reach a market value of more than $400 billion over the next five years. With AAPL hosting one of the largest and most used app stores in the world, it would be reasonable to assume that related revenues would grow at a similar pace.Despite mounting global regulatory scrutiny over Apple's alleged antitrust violations with its App Store, the company's continued focus on ensuring user privacy, security, and ease of transactions remains key strategies for retaining user adoption. According to a survey of 4,000 Apple product users performed by Morgan Stanley across the U.S. and China, most have indicated loyalty to Apple's App store due to the \"value of security, privacy and ease of transactions\" provided, despite developers pushing for rights to transact outside of Apple's ecosystem.What to Look for After EarningsFor the current quarter, management has warned of continuing supply headwinds stemming from COVID-related disruptions and industry-wide silicon shortages. On the demand side, COVID disruptions observed in China - which represents almost a fifth of total Apple sales - have slowed domestic consumption. Paired with the company's recent pullout from the Russian market following the Ukraine war, which drove a 150 bps decrease to sales growth in the March-quarter, the company is expecting a quantified impact of $4 billion to $8 billion from the combined challenges for the June-quarter.But these impacts to the company's fundamental strength and valuation prospects are expected to remain minimum given their transitory nature. Yes, they will bring about some volatility in the near-term for sure, but the stock's bullish narrative in the long run, backed by continued growth and a strong balance sheet, remains intact.China's COVID Situation: Production at most of Apple's most notable assemblers in China, including Pegatron, Foxconn and Quanta have resumed after temporary suspensions in response to China's attempt to curb the resurgence of omicron infections. Most are currently operating out of a \"closed-loop system\", where \"workers live on-site and are tested regularly\" to reduce chances of a widespread outbreak.But logistical challenges remain intense due to strict quarantine controls levied on the country's trucking fleet, which is responsible for transporting about 75% of total freight in China. Key industrial hubs like Jiangsu, Guangdong, Shanxi and Shanghai saw road freight volumes decline by close to a fifth in March compared to the prior year. Only some easing has been observed since late April, as China continues to struggle with getting a grip on persistent infection rates, especially in the Shanghai corridor that houses some of Apple's final assembly plants. Despite the return to closed-loop operations, the assembly plants are facing heightening risks of exposure to dwindling inventory levels as a result of ongoing logistical challenges. As such, we consider Apple's recent guidance of an upward adjusted estimate on product disruption for the current quarter a prudent decision in setting market expectations in the near-term.Silicon Shortages: Industry-wide silicon shortages have been going on more than a year now, with the aftermath of pandemic-era disruptions to production still lingering to this day. Increased demand for chips in the face of accelerating cross-industry digitization, compounded by raw material supply constraints due to the Russia-Ukraine war has also further complicated the situation.Apple continues to suffer from the shortage of legacy nodes, which have caused an acute impact to iPad supply. This has led to multiple consecutive periods of declining sales for the segment, despite refreshed demand from both retail and commercial consumers. As the easing timeline on chip shortages remains highly uncertain, we expect related impacts to fluctuate in the range of $3 billion to $6 billion through the rest of the year and potentially through the first half of 2023. This is consistent with observations in the past three quarters prior to added pressure from China's recent lockdowns and the Russia-Ukraine war.Russia Exit: Apple noted lost sales growth of about 150 bps in the March-quarter due to its exit from the Russian market following the country's attack on Ukraine. Considering 9% year-on-year growth observed in the March-quarter, Apple is expected to have lost about $1 billion in sales as a result of pulling out operations from Russia, which is immaterial from both a fundamental and valuations point of view. We also consider Apple's immediate exit from the Russian market following the onset of the Russia-Ukraine war a prudent move, which precluded the company from exposure to impacts pertaining to ensuing sanctions levied on Russia by the U.S. and its allies.Tightening Monetary Policy: As discussed in our recent coverage, we consider the Apple stock one of the strongest shields against adverse impacts from the Federal Reserve's monetary policy tightening measures to quell the hottest inflation in 40 years. While tightening financial conditions have largely deterred investors from risky assets like growth stocks, Apple has remained comparatively resilient given its outperformance of key benchmark indexes still, despite overall year-to-date declines.Sustained by robust demand still for its existing offerings, and new opportunities arising from nascent technologies like AR/VR and autonomous vehicles in the long run, Apple is expected to re-emerge from the current market rout stronger than its peers thanks to its fundamental strength. As mentioned in earlier sections, Apple's strong net cash position also provides sufficient dry powder to fund additional growth in coming years without incurring additional costs of capital amidst rising interest rates.The company's robust balance sheet is also backing generous shareholder returns in the form of share buybacks and dividends, which is a positive gesture under the current market climate. The company returned $27 billion to shareholders in the March-quarter through a combination of $22.9 billion in share buybacks and $3.6 billion in dividends. The company has also promised a dividend increase of 5% to $0.23 per share for the current quarter, and authorized an additional $90 billion in share buybacks as the company works to get its checkbook down to cash neutral over time.Is Apple Stock a Buy, Sell or Hold?As Apple continues to press through production challenges and macroeconomic headwinds with outperformance, we are maintaining our 12-month price target for the stock at the $200 to $210 level. This would represent upside potential of more than 30% based on the stock's last traded share price of $157.28 (May 6th).Apple Valuation Analysis (Author)Apple Financial Forecast (Author)As the broad-based market rout continues amidst still-fluid macroeconomic challenges spanning runaway inflation, tightening monetary policies, hard-to-tame COVID outbreaks, and intensifying geopolitical tensions, the current turmoil in equities could \"provide a near-term stock pullback which [could be used] as a buying opportunity\". We believe the stock's market value is currently non-reflective of its fundamental strength, and growth trajectory ahead of robust demand and new product / segment launches that include AR/VR headsets and the Apple car over coming years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":131,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9061526933,"gmtCreate":1651648974103,"gmtModify":1676534942259,"author":{"id":"3586990023332519","authorId":"3586990023332519","name":"StarGate","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9db084b2eae373a6cc56043329defb07","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586990023332519","idStr":"3586990023332519"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"As of now, the recommendations are pretty low to enter and you never know the game changes once development is going well...","listText":"As of now, the recommendations are pretty low to enter and you never know the game changes once development is going well...","text":"As of now, the recommendations are pretty low to enter and you never know the game changes once development is going well...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9061526933","repostId":"2232715789","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2232715789","pubTimestamp":1651622425,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2232715789?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-04 08:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Beaten-Down Stocks That Could Deliver 5X Gains By 2030","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2232715789","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These stocks are losers now.

Here&#39;s why they chose <b>CRISPR Therapeutics</b>, <b>Ginkgo Bioworks Holdings</b>, and <b>Novocure</b>.</p><h2>A great entry point for investors</h2><p><b>Prosper Junior Bakiny (CRISPR Therapeutics):</b> &#34;Beaten-down&#34; doesn&#39;t begin to describe what has happened to CRISPR Therapeutics in the past year on the market. Shares of the gene-editing specialist have plunged by more than 60% in the trailing-12-month period -- a horrible performance by any metric.</p><p>It&#39;s not hard to understand what&#39;s going on here. The biotech currently has no products on the market. Before its recent fall, shares had been on fire. A correction was probably overdue.</p><p>But this could be a great entry point for opportunistic investors willing to be patient. CRISPR Therapeutics has several promising pipeline candidates. These include several immuno-oncology candidates: CTX110, CTX120, and CTX130. However, the most exciting of CRISPR Therapeutics&#39; programs is CTX001. The biotech is developing this potential therapy for sickle cell disease and transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia in collaboration with <b>Vertex Pharmaceuticals</b>.</p><p>CRISPR Therapeutics and Vertex have already produced excellent results in a phase 1/2 clinical trial. Regulatory submissions should come down by the end of the year.</p><p>There are few safe and effective therapy options for both of those rare blood illnesses. If CTX001 earns regulatory approval, it could be a game changer.</p><p>And that highlights the potential of CRISPR Therapeutics&#39; platform. Like other gene-editing specialists, the company is going after challenging targets, including some for which there are few (if any) curative therapies.</p><p>Another example of that is the company&#39;s VCTX210, an investigational gene-editing treatment for type 1 diabetes. CRISPR Therapeutics could record some major clinical wins in the next five years, thereby helping its stock price soar.</p><p>Of course, none of this is guaranteed. CRISPR Therapeutics&#39; candidates could run into clinical or regulatory obstacles. It&#39;s essential to keep these risks (and others) in mind when making investment decisions.</p><p>But if enough things go right for CRISPR Therapeutics, the company&#39;s shares could skyrocket by 2030. That&#39;s why it&#39;s worth considering initiating a position now, especially after the beating CRISPR Therapeutics has endured in the past year.</p><h2>A potential growth machine in the making</h2><p><b>David Jagielski</b> <b>(Ginkgo Bioworks): </b>A crashing growth stock with loads of potential is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> that investors should pay close attention to because it can lead to significant returns in the near future. Ginkgo Bioworks is one of those stocks. The more it falls, the more likely it is that this will be at least a five-bagger investment by 2030.</p><p>To get to that level, the stock wouldn&#39;t even need to climb a whole lot higher than where it started trading. Last September, the biotech stock went public through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC). It soon reached a high of more than $14. That&#39;s already around four times the value of where it trades today.</p><p>The sell-off of Ginkgo&#39;s shares since it went public is a bit of a mystery. It follows a relatively similar path to that of Cathie Wood&#39;s <b>Ark Innovation <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PSFF\">Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETF</a> </b>, which holds shares of Ginkgo. Since November, the exchange-traded fund has fallen by close to 60% while Ginkgo has done a bit worse, cratering by 70%.</p><p>But that could prove to be a short-term problem for investors. Among the most attractive features of Ginkgo&#39;s business is its versatility. It can help multiple industries through programming cells. Consumer and technology, food and agriculture, industrials and environment, and biotech and pharma are the different areas the company has identified opportunities in.</p><p>The total addressable market for bioengineered products could be well into the trillions by 2040. Ginkgo only has to scratch the surface of all that potential to jump to the roughly $32 billion valuation it would need to reach to generate 5x returns.</p><p>Ginkgo has been working on deals to tap into some of that growth already. In April alone, it announced multiple collaborations and partnerships. One involved working with animal health company <b>Elanco</b> to launch a new business focused on improving animal health and protein production. Another was to partner with a company in the water business to develop biosensors that would find toxins in water.</p><p>In 2022, Ginkgo projects its revenue will come in between $325 million and $340 million. While that&#39;s a potentially modest increase from the $314 million it reported in 2021 (when its revenue soared 309%), Ginkgo is still in the early stages of its growth. There&#39;s significant potential here for investors to earn a fantastic return. The key is remaining patient with the business as it grows.</p><h2>5x could be too pessimistic for this stock</h2><p><b>Keith Speights (Novocure):</b> One stock immediately jumped to my mind when I began thinking about candidates that could deliver a 5x gain by 2030 -- Novocure. Actually, I that 5x could even be too pessimistic.</p><p>Novocure&#39;s Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) therapy, which uses electrical fields to disrupt cancer cell replication, is currently approved for treating glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and mesothelioma. Novocure CEO Bill Doyle noted in the company&#39;s first-quarter conference call that the GBM business &#34;remains a key driver of our long-term success.&#34; The company hopes to soon expand into the French GBM market. It&#39;s also building out its infrastructure to reach more of the North American and EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) markets.</p><p>But Novocure&#39;s potential to deliver 5x or greater returns largely depends on winning regulatory approvals for TTFields in additional indications. The company is currently evaluating the therapy in four late-stage pivotal studies for which results should be available in the near term.</p><p>Data from the Lunar study of TTFields in treating non-small cell lung cancer should read out this year. In 2023, Novocure expects to announce results from two late-stage studies targeting ovarian cancer and brain metastases. And in 2024, the company anticipates reporting data from its phase 3 study targeting pancreatic cancer.</p><p>Novocure currently has penetrated only around 35% of the GBM market. However, the indications that it&#39;s going after in the four late-stage studies represent a market size that&#39;s 14x greater than its current market.</p><p>Granted, Novocure needs its clinical studies to be successful to have a shot at becoming the huge winner I think it can be. But I like the company&#39;s chances.</p></body></html>","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>3 Beaten-Down Stocks That Could Deliver 5X Gains By 2030</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\">\n3 Beaten-Down Stocks That Could Deliver 5X Gains By 2030\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-05-04 08:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/05/02/3-beaten-down-stocks-that-could-deliver-5x-gains-b/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Even the best stocks can fall on hard times.

Shares of the gene-editing specialist have plunged by more than 60% in the trailing-12-month period -- a horrible performance by any metric.It's not hard to understand what's going on here.

It's essential to keep these risks (and others) in mind when making investment decisions.But if enough things go right for CRISPR Therapeutics, the company's shares could skyrocket by 2030. That's why it's worth considering initiating a position now, especially after the beating CRISPR Therapeutics has endured in the past year.A potential growth machine in the makingDavid Jagielski (Ginkgo Bioworks): A crashing growth stock with loads of potential is one that investors should pay close attention to because it can lead to significant returns in the near future. Ginkgo Bioworks is one of those stocks. The more it falls, the more likely it is that this will be at least a five-bagger investment by 2030.To get to that level, the stock wouldn't even need to climb a whole lot higher than where it started trading. Last September, the biotech stock went public through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC). It soon reached a high of more than $14. That's already around four times the value of where it trades today.The sell-off of Ginkgo's shares since it went public is a bit of a mystery. It follows a relatively similar path to that of Cathie Wood's Ark Innovation Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETF , which holds shares of Ginkgo. Since November, the exchange-traded fund has fallen by close to 60% while Ginkgo has done a bit worse, cratering by 70%.But that could prove to be a short-term problem for investors. Among the most attractive features of Ginkgo's business is its versatility. It can help multiple industries through programming cells. Consumer and technology, food and agriculture, industrials and environment, and biotech and pharma are the different areas the company has identified opportunities in.The total addressable market for bioengineered products could be well into the trillions by 2040. Ginkgo only has to scratch the surface of all that potential to jump to the roughly $32 billion valuation it would need to reach to generate 5x returns.Ginkgo has been working on deals to tap into some of that growth already. In April alone, it announced multiple collaborations and partnerships. One involved working with animal health company Elanco to launch a new business focused on improving animal health and protein production. Another was to partner with a company in the water business to develop biosensors that would find toxins in water.In 2022, Ginkgo projects its revenue will come in between $325 million and $340 million. While that's a potentially modest increase from the $314 million it reported in 2021 (when its revenue soared 309%), Ginkgo is still in the early stages of its growth. There's significant potential here for investors to earn a fantastic return. The key is remaining patient with the business as it grows.5x could be too pessimistic for this stockKeith Speights (Novocure): One stock immediately jumped to my mind when I began thinking about candidates that could deliver a 5x gain by 2030 -- Novocure. Actually, I that 5x could even be too pessimistic.Novocure's Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) therapy, which uses electrical fields to disrupt cancer cell replication, is currently approved for treating glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and mesothelioma. Novocure CEO Bill Doyle noted in the company's first-quarter conference call that the GBM business \"remains a key driver of our long-term success.\" The company hopes to soon expand into the French GBM market. It's also building out its infrastructure to reach more of the North American and EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) markets.But Novocure's potential to deliver 5x or greater returns largely depends on winning regulatory approvals for TTFields in additional indications. The company is currently evaluating the therapy in four late-stage pivotal studies for which results should be available in the near term.Data from the Lunar study of TTFields in treating non-small cell lung cancer should read out this year. In 2023, Novocure expects to announce results from two late-stage studies targeting ovarian cancer and brain metastases. And in 2024, the company anticipates reporting data from its phase 3 study targeting pancreatic cancer.Novocure currently has penetrated only around 35% of the GBM market. However, the indications that it's going after in the four late-stage studies represent a market size that's 14x greater than its current market.Granted, Novocure needs its clinical studies to be successful to have a shot at becoming the huge winner I think it can be. But I like the company's chances.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":208,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9003712490,"gmtCreate":1641086011181,"gmtModify":1676533570116,"author":{"id":"3586990023332519","authorId":"3586990023332519","name":"StarGate","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9db084b2eae373a6cc56043329defb07","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586990023332519","idStr":"3586990023332519"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good start for EV&nbsp;","listText":"Good start for EV&nbsp;","text":"Good start for EV","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9003712490","repostId":"1173416252","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1173416252","pubTimestamp":1641085354,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1173416252?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-02 09:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"XPeng, NIO, Li Auto Report Big December Deliveries.

But its fiscal&nbsp;Q1 showed a loss of $35 million in FCF. This didn’t do anything to help BB stock. If fell from a near-term peak of $15.88 on June 3 (before the June 24 Q1 results) to $9.56 on Aug. 19. The stock could be near a trough now.</p>\n<p>I still believe that&nbsp;as I wrote on June 4, BB stock could be worth $20.91 per share, assuming its FCF turns positive this year. All eyes will therefore be on its upcoming Sept. 22 fiscal Q2 earnings release. Investors will want to see if revenue is growing and the company achieves positive FCF.</p>\n<p>For example, last quarter ending May 31 revenue fell by 15.5% year-over-year (YOY) from $206 million last year to $174 million this quarter. In fact, it was also down by 17.1% from the prior quarter as well.</p>\n<p>That is almost like a curse for a stock like Blackberry. Investors and analysts want to see positive growth on a steady YoY and quarter-over-quarter (QOQ) basis. This probably explains why the stock fell so much.</p>\n<p><b>Where This Leaves BlackBerry</b></p>\n<p>Last year BlackBerry produced $893 million in revenue, but for this fiscal year ending May 2022 analysts still see lower sales at $781.6 million. However, they also expect a recovery by May 2023 to $954.1 million. But is the market willing to wait until then? That is why the upcoming fiscal Q2 2022 earnings release will be so important. Investors want to see if the company is back on a growth track.</p>\n<p>If it is, then the likelihood that it can produce positive free cash flow for the year will increase, and this will help BB stock recover.</p>\n<p>For example, as I pointed out in my last article, BlackBerry reported FCF during Q4 of $49 million. This was a huge 23.33% of its $210 million in revenue during the quarter. Assuming it can pull off the same thing next year the company could make $222.3 million in FCF that year. That is based on 23.33% of sales of $954.1 million.</p>\n<p>However, to be more conservative let’s assume that it can only make half of that or an 11.5% FCF margin. That lowers its forecast FCF to $109.7 million. Moreover, its present value using a 10% discount rate and a year and a half in the future is 86.68% times this FCF number. That lowers it to $95.1 million.</p>\n<p><b>What BlackBerry Stock Could Be Worth</b></p>\n<p>If we use an FCF yield of between 1% we can calculate the company’s ongoing value. This is calculated by dividing the free cash flow estimates by its FCF yield ratio.</p>\n<p>For example, using $95.1 million in FCF forecast for Blackberry in 2023 brings its value to $9.51 billion. This is 55.7% over today’s market value for Blackberry of $6.109 billion.</p>\n<p>And if we use a 1.5% FCF yield, the target market value falls to $6.34 billion (i.e., $95.1/0.015=$6.34b). That is just 3.78% over today’s price.</p>\n<p>Therefore, BB stock has a target value between 3.78% and 55.7% over today’s price. The average is 29.74%, or basically 30% over today’s price of $10.73. That puts its value at $13.95 per share (estimate rounded to $14).</p>\n<p><b>What to do With BB Stock</b></p>\n<p>Analysts are not very positive about BB stock. For example, seven analysts surveyed by Refinitiv (reported by&nbsp;<i>Yahoo! Finance</i>) have an average target price of $8.36. That implies a potential drop of 22% from today’s price.</p>\n<p>Another survey by&nbsp;<i>TipRanks.com</i>&nbsp;says that four analysts have an&nbsp;average price of $9.50or 11.5% below today’s price.

But its fiscal Q1 showed a loss of $35 million in FCF. This didn’t do anything to help BB stock. If fell from a near-term peak of $15.88 on June 3 (before the June 24 Q1 results) to $9.56 on Aug. 19. The stock could be near a trough now.\nI still believe that as I wrote on June 4, BB stock could be worth $20.91 per share, assuming its FCF turns positive this year. All eyes will therefore be on its upcoming Sept. 22 fiscal Q2 earnings release. Investors will want to see if revenue is growing and the company achieves positive FCF.\nFor example, last quarter ending May 31 revenue fell by 15.5% year-over-year (YOY) from $206 million last year to $174 million this quarter. In fact, it was also down by 17.1% from the prior quarter as well.\nThat is almost like a curse for a stock like Blackberry. Investors and analysts want to see positive growth on a steady YoY and quarter-over-quarter (QOQ) basis. This probably explains why the stock fell so much.\nWhere This Leaves BlackBerry\nLast year BlackBerry produced $893 million in revenue, but for this fiscal year ending May 2022 analysts still see lower sales at $781.6 million. However, they also expect a recovery by May 2023 to $954.1 million. But is the market willing to wait until then? That is why the upcoming fiscal Q2 2022 earnings release will be so important. Investors want to see if the company is back on a growth track.\nIf it is, then the likelihood that it can produce positive free cash flow for the year will increase, and this will help BB stock recover.\nFor example, as I pointed out in my last article, BlackBerry reported FCF during Q4 of $49 million. This was a huge 23.33% of its $210 million in revenue during the quarter. Assuming it can pull off the same thing next year the company could make $222.3 million in FCF that year. That is based on 23.33% of sales of $954.1 million.\nHowever, to be more conservative let’s assume that it can only make half of that or an 11.5% FCF margin. That lowers its forecast FCF to $109.7 million. Moreover, its present value using a 10% discount rate and a year and a half in the future is 86.68% times this FCF number. That lowers it to $95.1 million.\nWhat BlackBerry Stock Could Be Worth\nIf we use an FCF yield of between 1% we can calculate the company’s ongoing value. This is calculated by dividing the free cash flow estimates by its FCF yield ratio.\nFor example, using $95.1 million in FCF forecast for Blackberry in 2023 brings its value to $9.51 billion. This is 55.7% over today’s market value for Blackberry of $6.109 billion.\nAnd if we use a 1.5% FCF yield, the target market value falls to $6.34 billion (i.e., $95.1/0.015=$6.34b). That is just 3.78% over today’s price.\nTherefore, BB stock has a target value between 3.78% and 55.7% over today’s price. The average is 29.74%, or basically 30% over today’s price of $10.73. That puts its value at $13.95 per share (estimate rounded to $14).\nWhat to do With BB Stock\nAnalysts are not very positive about BB stock. For example, seven analysts surveyed by Refinitiv (reported by Yahoo! Finance) have an average target price of $8.36. That implies a potential drop of 22% from today’s price.\nAnother survey by TipRanks.com says that four analysts have an average price of $9.50or 11.5% below today’s price. However, nine Wall Street analysts surveyed by Seeking Alpha have an average target of $8.19, or 23.7% below today.\nSo the average of all three of these surveys is a price of $8.68, or 19% lower. I would not be too bothered by this though. Analysts have a tendency to raise their price targets after the stock has already risen.\nEnterprising investors who are willing to anticipate more positive results for the year ending May 2023 (and probably before that) could see the stock rise 30% to $13.95 per share.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":30,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":816138929,"gmtCreate":1630476036061,"gmtModify":1676530313945,"author":{"id":"3586990023332519","authorId":"3586990023332519","name":"StarGate","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9db084b2eae373a6cc56043329defb07","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3586990023332519","idStr":"3586990023332519"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hard to says...expect the unexpected and be prudent in investment&nbsp;","listText":"Hard to says...expect the unexpected and be prudent in investment&nbsp;","text":"Hard to says...expect the unexpected and be prudent in investment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/816138929","repostId":"1121703403","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1121703403","pubTimestamp":1630468161,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1121703403?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-01 11:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"September Is the Stock Market’s Worst Month.
