in the industry in 2020 and no overall declines in jobs and population in the region.</p>\n<p>While the high-profile departures of&nbsp;rich executives and investors like Elon Musk&nbsp;and&nbsp;companies like Oracle Corp.&nbsp;and&nbsp;Hewlett Packard Enterprise Corp.&nbsp;have raised questions about the future of California’s tech powerhouse, an annual report out this week found little evidence of a trend. Instead, the major effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the San Francisco Bay Area in 2020 was the widening of the divide between the haves and have-nots, thanks to all the money still flowing into just a few pockets as the coronavirus ravages poorer communities.</p>\n<p>“Today, we must frankly admit that the pandemic has made the rich richer while the poor are dying,” said Russell Hancock, chief executive of Joint Venture Silicon Valley, which published its annual Silicon Valley Index this week detailing what happened in the region last year.</p>\n<p>The report showed record venture capital investment in Bay Area startups, along with booming market capitalizations for public tech companies and standard-setting initial public offerings.

That’s in line with what the Silicon Valley Index shows: 59% of the people who have left the valley in the past few years have stayed in California, moving up or down the state.</p>\n<p>“I think we can all calm down,” said Rachel Massaro, Joint Venture’s director of research, during a news briefing about the index. “We’re a place of innovation. We’re a place that houses these impactful companies. We have not seen any significant losses among them.”</p>\n<p>In short, the region’s biggest companies and highest-paid people fared drastically better and in many cases thrived — white-collar workers, who earn more than three times as those in service occupations, got to work remotely and protect themselves from a deadly virus — while low-wage workers lost jobs and fell ill, their lack of a safety net shining a harsher light on inequality.</p>\n<p>“It’s a tale of two economies,” Hancock said. “There are two stories.”</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e74e27c802a7abc5e4f17381a9dc9f7\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"343\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><b>The tech story</b></p>\n<p>Silicon Valley and San Francisco companies’ market capitalization climbed 37% to $10.5 trillion last year, according to the report, thanks to huge spikes from companies such as Tesla Inc.TSLA,-0.77%,which saw its market cap skyrocket more than 700% in 2020; Apple Inc.AAPL,+0.12%,which saw a 77% increase, while Facebook Inc.FB,-2.91%grew 30% and GoogleGOOGL,-0.81%experienced a 28% boost.</p>\n<p>Big Tech kept getting bigger in other ways as well.

Of the $123.6 billion in U.S. VC funding in 2020, $26.4 billion went to Silicon Valley, $20 billion to San Francisco and $67 billion to California. A lot of that investment went into well-known startups including Bay Area decacorns (private companies worth at least $10 billion) like Stripe, Instacart and Robinhood.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aecd2f4f6588dc206cb09b59ebe10136\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"502\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>The other, less positive story</b></p>\n<p>While Big Tech flourished and money continued to pour into potential additions to that group, the gap between those flourishing from that performance and Silicon Valley’s poorer residents is wider than ever, the index shows.</p>\n<p>As of last Friday, 2,069 people in the region had died of COVID-19, Hancock said. Death rates were highest among Native Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders, Black/African Americans and Hispanic or Latinos, respectively. A report by the&nbsp;Mercury News&nbsp;showed that death rates were far higher in poorer neighborhoods than wealthier ones, such as in the largely Latino neighborhoods of East San Jose.</p>\n<p>Lower-wage workers lost their jobs or had to put their health at risk to hang onto their positions.</p>\n<p>“The pandemic wiped out our service sector and in-person economy,” Hancock said. “There’s real carnage out there. People have lost their livelihoods.”</p>\n<p>The region’s community infrastructure and service jobs declined 54% by midyear 2020. Hispanic people were 1.5 times more likely to file unemployment claims as white people, Hancock said. And in December, more than 626,000 households in the Bay Area, including nearly 200,000 households in Silicon Valley, were at risk of eviction or mortgage nonpayment, according to the index.</p>\n<p>Shuttle drivers who drove tech employees to various offices around the Bay Area for companies such as Salesforce Inc.,Twitter Inc.&nbsp;and others — which have told their employees they can work remotely permanently or most of the time — have been laid off or furloughed, said Stacy Murphy, business representative for Teamsters Local 853, which represents about 800 shuttle drivers in the Bay Area. Some drivers are still on paid furlough, but others are no longer receiving wages and most have no idea when they can return to work.</p>\n<p>“We are all patiently waiting,” said Murphy, who has said the union is in constant discussions and is advocating for the drivers to keep getting paid.</p>\n<p><b>The murky future</b></p>\n<p>Some data from the index shows that concerns about a threat to the region’s reign as a tech center are not unfounded. Although Silicon Valley’s population did not decline in 2020, a yearslong out-migration trend did continue. Still, the index shows that the net out-migration in 2020 was about half that of the departures from the region in 2001, after the dot-com bubble burst.</p>\n<p>The index also shows that the employment growth rate of the top 15 largest tech employers in Denver (14.7%) and Sacramento (14.5%) were nearly four times that of the Bay Area’s 3.7%. And the Bay Area’s share of those same companies’ U.S. workforces fell from 26.1% in January 2020 to 23.9% in December. While the percentage gains were smaller, the Bay Area still added more tech jobs in total than the other metropolitan areas.</p>\n<p>Metro areas in Florida, Texas and elsewhere are touting themselves as the next big tech hubs as companies and executives move to places like Texas, where Oracle and Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co.&nbsp;have moved their headquarters — even as many Oracle employees remain in the Bay Area, Hancock pointed out.</p>\n<p>As other companies move or make decisions about whether their employees should return to the office, it will affect the construction projects that have been put on hold or the office-space rental rates that have mostly held steady.</p>\n<p>The Bay Area Council, which includes the region’s companies as members and advocates for business-friendly policies, has launched a “business climate” initiative as it worries about companies leaving the region.</p>\n<p>“It’s not going to be an immediate change,” said Patrick Kallerman, research director for the Bay Area Council Economic Institute. “The Bay Area isn’t going to be a ghost town in six months. We’re asking ourselves if this is going to be a long-term, significant change.”</p>\n<p>Those changes will affect the quality of life in the Bay Area as municipalities find themselves with budget shortfalls. Silicon Valley city revenues are expected to decline by an average of 5% mostly due to the pandemic’s effects, according to the SV Index. San Francisco saw sales tax revenue decline 43% in the second quarter of 2020 compared with the prior year, according to the&nbsp;San Francisco Chronicle, which looked at the effects of the pandemic on the city’s once-bustling&nbsp;downtown.</p>\n<p>What happens to the big businesses — whether they leave, stay, change their work-from-home policies — will affect the small ones, too.</p>\n<p>Alicia Villanueva, who owns Alicia’s Tamales Los Mayas, a tamale factory in Hayward, Calif., and Lynna Martinez, owner of Cuban Kitchen, a restaurant in San Mateo, Calif., both said that despite devastating drops in their revenue, they avoided laying off any employees because of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and other loans.</p>\n<p>Both businesses relied heavily on catering to tech and other companies in the Bay Area.</p>\n<p>“We had hundreds of clients, including Oracle, Facebook, Google and Comcast,” Martinez said. “We would do anywhere between 100 to 300 orders before we opened our doors at 11 a.m. Then in March and April, boom, 50% of our business was gone.”</p>\n<p>The two women said they have had to adjust and make up the lost business however they can. Martinez said her catering business is probably a tenth of what it once was. Villanueva’s son is delivering tamales to a school district that’s more than 60 miles away.</p>\n<p>“He’s waking up at 2 a.m. to get ready and deliver to Vacaville at 5 a.m.,” said Villanueva, who has 21 employees.</p>\n<p>Martinez and her eight employees are relying more on referrals, and she’s now considering franchising.</p>\n<p>“The pandemic forced us to target a wider, more dispersed base,” she said. “In some ways, this was a good challenge for me as a business owner who wanted to pursue the idea of having a franchise.”</p>","source":"market_watch","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

People have lost their livelihoods.”\nThe region’s community infrastructure and service jobs declined 54% by midyear 2020. Hispanic people were 1.5 times more likely to file unemployment claims as white people, Hancock said. And in December, more than 626,000 households in the Bay Area, including nearly 200,000 households in Silicon Valley, were at risk of eviction or mortgage nonpayment, according to the index.\nShuttle drivers who drove tech employees to various offices around the Bay Area for companies such as Salesforce Inc.,Twitter Inc. and others — which have told their employees they can work remotely permanently or most of the time — have been laid off or furloughed, said Stacy Murphy, business representative for Teamsters Local 853, which represents about 800 shuttle drivers in the Bay Area. Some drivers are still on paid furlough, but others are no longer receiving wages and most have no idea when they can return to work.\n“We are all patiently waiting,” said Murphy, who has said the union is in constant discussions and is advocating for the drivers to keep getting paid.\nThe murky future\nSome data from the index shows that concerns about a threat to the region’s reign as a tech center are not unfounded. Although Silicon Valley’s population did not decline in 2020, a yearslong out-migration trend did continue. Still, the index shows that the net out-migration in 2020 was about half that of the departures from the region in 2001, after the dot-com bubble burst.\nThe index also shows that the employment growth rate of the top 15 largest tech employers in Denver (14.7%) and Sacramento (14.5%) were nearly four times that of the Bay Area’s 3.7%. And the Bay Area’s share of those same companies’ U.S. workforces fell from 26.1% in January 2020 to 23.9% in December. While the percentage gains were smaller, the Bay Area still added more tech jobs in total than the other metropolitan areas.\nMetro areas in Florida, Texas and elsewhere are touting themselves as the next big tech hubs as companies and executives move to places like Texas, where Oracle and Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. have moved their headquarters — even as many Oracle employees remain in the Bay Area, Hancock pointed out.\nAs other companies move or make decisions about whether their employees should return to the office, it will affect the construction projects that have been put on hold or the office-space rental rates that have mostly held steady.\nThe Bay Area Council, which includes the region’s companies as members and advocates for business-friendly policies, has launched a “business climate” initiative as it worries about companies leaving the region.\n“It’s not going to be an immediate change,” said Patrick Kallerman, research director for the Bay Area Council Economic Institute. “The Bay Area isn’t going to be a ghost town in six months. We’re asking ourselves if this is going to be a long-term, significant change.”\nThose changes will affect the quality of life in the Bay Area as municipalities find themselves with budget shortfalls. Silicon Valley city revenues are expected to decline by an average of 5% mostly due to the pandemic’s effects, according to the SV Index. San Francisco saw sales tax revenue decline 43% in the second quarter of 2020 compared with the prior year, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, which looked at the effects of the pandemic on the city’s once-bustling downtown.\nWhat happens to the big businesses — whether they leave, stay, change their work-from-home policies — will affect the small ones, too.\nAlicia Villanueva, who owns Alicia’s Tamales Los Mayas, a tamale factory in Hayward, Calif., and Lynna Martinez, owner of Cuban Kitchen, a restaurant in San Mateo, Calif., both said that despite devastating drops in their revenue, they avoided laying off any employees because of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and other loans.\nBoth businesses relied heavily on catering to tech and other companies in the Bay Area.\n“We had hundreds of clients, including Oracle, Facebook, Google and Comcast,” Martinez said. “We would do anywhere between 100 to 300 orders before we opened our doors at 11 a.m. Then in March and April, boom, 50% of our business was gone.”\nThe two women said they have had to adjust and make up the lost business however they can. Martinez said her catering business is probably a tenth of what it once was. Villanueva’s son is delivering tamales to a school district that’s more than 60 miles away.\n“He’s waking up at 2 a.m. to get ready and deliver to Vacaville at 5 a.m.,” said Villanueva, who has 21 employees.\nMartinez and her eight employees are relying more on referrals, and she’s now considering franchising.\n“The pandemic forced us to target a wider, more dispersed base,” she said. “In some ways, this was a good challenge for me as a business owner who wanted to pursue the idea of having a franchise.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":199,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":369017660,"gmtCreate":1613988182250,"gmtModify":1704886504817,"author":{"id":"3552098389056951","authorId":"3552098389056951","name":"沃斯特","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4ec9f4e6a8cb64f717c3506171561fa8","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3552098389056951","authorIdStr":"3552098389056951"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Lol","listText":"Lol","text":"Lol","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/369017660","repostId":"1179041252","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1179041252","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1613983854,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1179041252?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-22 16:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Square Reports Earnings This Week.

Literally.\nCalling Square (ticker: SQ) her top pick for 2021, Evercore ISI’s Rayna Kumar writes that it is the “most disruptive company in payments and banking.” She reiterated an Outperform rating on Thursday, with a $304 price target. “Disruption pays,” she writes, “pounding [the] table ahead of earnings.”\nSquare was ahead 2% on last Friday and is up 27% this year to recent prices around $280.\nThe payments app is riding a strong growth wave: Its Cash App has become a popular stock trading platform. Retail trading surged during the pandemic, and Cash App may have won over clients from Robinhood after that app briefly restricted trading in GameStop (GME).\nAccording to a small survey of Robinhood users by Mizuho Securities, nearly 40% of respondents who switched to other trading apps said they shifted to Cash App, beating other platforms like Stash, Fidelity, or TD Ameritrade (now owned byCharles Schwab).\nBitcoin’s surging price, recently hitting records around $50,000, is also fueling gains for Cash App; users can buy and trade the cryptocurrency on the app. Square buys the cryptocurrency and resells it to users, taking a cut of transactions. The company posted about $1.6 billion in total Bitcoin revenue in the third quarter, though net revenue, after costs for the currency, was just $32 million.\nKumar expects Square to beat consensus estimates in the fourth quarter of 2020 and throughout 2021. She sees Square posting net revenue of $924 million in the quarter with Ebitda—earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization—of $160 million, ahead of consensus estimates of $141 million. She sees the firm posting adjusted net revenue of $4.3 billion in 2021, resulting in adjusted Ebitda of $825 million, 24% above consensus estimates.\nCash App may have boosted active users by 56% in January, according to Evercore surveys. The app had 33 million users in the September quarter, and Kumar expects the company to hit 40 million in the fourth quarter.\nKumar notes that Square is working to integrate Cash App with its Seller App used by merchants to process payments. The company is integrating the ecosystems through new products like Instant Payments from merchants to employees and On-Demand Pay, giving employees a way to quickly access up to $200 per pay period in Cash App.\nWolfe Research’s Darrin Peller also reiterated a bullish view, maintaining an Outperform rating and $335 target. He expects shares to “grind higher over the next several months,” fueled by Bitcoin, stock trading, and growth trends in Cash App.\n“Square stands out as a material share gainer across its businesses, solidifying its status as a global leader,” he wrote in a note on Thursday.\nInvestors are paying a steep multiple for Square’s growth. The company is expected to earn 76 cents a share in the next 12 months, giving it a price-to-earnings ratio of 370 times.\nAnalysts value stocks like Square on a multiple of revenue, but that doesn’t make it much cheaper. Assuming $4.2 billion in net revenue this year, the shares trade at 66 times sales.PayPal Holdings(PYPL), by contrast, fetches 13 times sales.\nValuation is keeping Piper Sandler analyst Christopher Donat on the sidelines. He has kept a Neutral rating on the stock since initiating coverage last July. His current price target is $190.\n“We’ve had a tough time putting an overweight on it, and it’s even tougher liking the valuation now,” he said. The pace of downloads of Cash App has been slowing, he points out, leading to slower growth of active users. He is also concerned about ongoing sales weakness at small bricks-and-mortar merchants such as restaurants.\n“I think Square is a great growth story with a long runway but I’m uncomfortable with the valuation,” he said. Square trades at 15 times enterprise value to revenue, compared with 11 times forPayPal Holdings,which is his top pick in payments.\nSquare is scheduled to report earnings after the close on Feb. 23. Asked if he plans to raise his rating on the stock, Donat said “never say never …but I might be wrong on this one.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":290,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":360644821,"gmtCreate":1613913749263,"gmtModify":1704885887503,"author":{"id":"3552098389056951","authorId":"3552098389056951","name":"沃斯特","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4ec9f4e6a8cb64f717c3506171561fa8","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3552098389056951","authorIdStr":"3552098389056951"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/360644821","repostId":"1163973263","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1163973263","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1613717057,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1163973263?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-19 14:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Chinese grocery app Xingsheng Youxuan raises $2 bln in new funding round - sources","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1163973263","media":"Reuters","summary":"HONG KONG, Feb 19 (Reuters) - Chinese community groceryshopping app Xingsheng Youxuan has raised abo","content":"<p>HONG KONG, Feb 19 (Reuters) - Chinese community groceryshopping app Xingsheng Youxuan has raised about $2 billion in anew funding round that values the company at $6 billion prior tothe fresh capital injection, three people with knowledge of thematter told Reuters.</p>\n<p>Private equity firms FountainVest Partners, PrimaveraCapital Group and KKR &amp; Co are among investors in thisround, two sources said.

Despite the drop in some of the big tech names such as AppleAAPL, FacebookFB, MicrosoftMSFT, Zoom VideoZM, and countless others this week, the market fundamentals remain relatively strong.</p><p>Ebbs and flows, as well as pullbacks and corrections are healthy aspects of the market. And they need not be viewed as anything but normal occurrences, especially as strong earnings results continue to pour in. Better yet, the outlook for the first quarter and the rest of 2021 has improved significantly.</p><p>Vaccine distribution will hopefully help the economy roar back by the summer and lift some of the hardest-hit areas of the economy. Meanwhile, Wall Street is banking on more spending under the Biden administration and the Fed remains firmly committed to keeping interest rates low.</p><p>All of these factors set up a bullish outlook for 2021. But instead of focusing on companies that need a vaccine to really grow, let’s look at two tech stocks that have posted big sales growth during the pandemic and are ready to expand for years within futuristic industries…</p><p><b>NIO Inc.NIO</b></p><p>Every major automaker, from FordFto Volvo, is racing to roll out more electric vehicles as they try to catch TeslaTSLA. Luckily for investors, the EV market is far from a zero-sum game and newcomers continue to enter the space. Chinese EV maker NIO is a rising star in the booming market, as its sales continue to grow. The company is also focused on autonomous driving tech, as well as batteries, which are the lifeblood of the industry.</p><p>NIO sells multiple models that are somewhat in-line with Tesla, from smaller SUVs to sedans. The company said in early January that it delivered 17,353 vehicles in the fourth quarter, which marked a 110% jump.</p><p>Overall, NIO’s full-year deliveries surged 113% to nearly 44,000 vehicles in 2020. And its January 2021 figures were even more impressive, with deliveries up 350% from the year-ago period to push its overall cumulative deliveries to 83K.</p><p>With this in mind, Zacks estimates call for NIO’s FY20 revenue to jump 120% to $2.49 billion, with FY21 projected to come in another 97% higher to reach $4.89 billion. The Chinese EV company is also expected to significantly shrink its adjusted losses during this stretch.</p><p>NIO has topped our EPS estimates in the trailing two periods and its positive earnings revisions help it land a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) heading into the release of its Q4 results on March 1.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b6233d1784a5cb7db62b437f7632a3f\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"314\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>NIO, which rocks an “A” grade for Growth in our Style Scores system, has seen its stock skyrocket over 1,000% in the last year and 300% in the past six months. Luckily for investors who missed the ride, NIO has cooled down, up only 12% in the last three months.</p><p>At roughly $55 per share, it’s down about 13% from its late January records.

And the stock jumped over 1% through morning trading Friday, as it bounces off its 50-day moving average.

Despite the drop in some of the big tech names such as AppleAAPL, FacebookFB, MicrosoftMSFT, Zoom VideoZM, and countless others this week, the market fundamentals remain relatively strong.Ebbs and flows, as well as pullbacks and corrections are healthy aspects of the market. And they need not be viewed as anything but normal occurrences, especially as strong earnings results continue to pour in. Better yet, the outlook for the first quarter and the rest of 2021 has improved significantly.Vaccine distribution will hopefully help the economy roar back by the summer and lift some of the hardest-hit areas of the economy. Meanwhile, Wall Street is banking on more spending under the Biden administration and the Fed remains firmly committed to keeping interest rates low.All of these factors set up a bullish outlook for 2021. But instead of focusing on companies that need a vaccine to really grow, let’s look at two tech stocks that have posted big sales growth during the pandemic and are ready to expand for years within futuristic industries…NIO Inc.NIOEvery major automaker, from FordFto Volvo, is racing to roll out more electric vehicles as they try to catch TeslaTSLA. Luckily for investors, the EV market is far from a zero-sum game and newcomers continue to enter the space. Chinese EV maker NIO is a rising star in the booming market, as its sales continue to grow. The company is also focused on autonomous driving tech, as well as batteries, which are the lifeblood of the industry.NIO sells multiple models that are somewhat in-line with Tesla, from smaller SUVs to sedans. The company said in early January that it delivered 17,353 vehicles in the fourth quarter, which marked a 110% jump.Overall, NIO’s full-year deliveries surged 113% to nearly 44,000 vehicles in 2020. And its January 2021 figures were even more impressive, with deliveries up 350% from the year-ago period to push its overall cumulative deliveries to 83K.With this in mind, Zacks estimates call for NIO’s FY20 revenue to jump 120% to $2.49 billion, with FY21 projected to come in another 97% higher to reach $4.89 billion. The Chinese EV company is also expected to significantly shrink its adjusted losses during this stretch.NIO has topped our EPS estimates in the trailing two periods and its positive earnings revisions help it land a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) heading into the release of its Q4 results on March 1.NIO, which rocks an “A” grade for Growth in our Style Scores system, has seen its stock skyrocket over 1,000% in the last year and 300% in the past six months. Luckily for investors who missed the ride, NIO has cooled down, up only 12% in the last three months.At roughly $55 per share, it’s down about 13% from its late January records. The recent downturn has seen it fall from overbought in terms of the Relative Strength Index to around 45—an RSI above 70 is often regarded as overbought, with any number below 30 considered oversold.NIO’s recent price performance could give it room to run if it’s able to impress Wall Street. And the stock jumped over 1% through morning trading Friday, as it bounces off its 50-day moving average. NIO shares also trade at a discount compared to other high-flyers at 12.7X forward sales, which marks a discount against Tesla’s 15.5X and comes in 25% below its own six-months highs.Three out of the nine brokerage recommendations that Zacks has for NIO come in at a “Strong Buy,” with none below a “Hold.” NIO might be worth buying as a long-term play that’s far less expensive than Tesla ($784 a share), in a world where EVs already accounted for over 30% of Volvo’s new car sales in Europe in 2020. And let’s remember that China is one of the world’s largest EV markets.CrowdStrikeCRWDCrowdStrike is a cloud-focused cybersecurity firm that utilizes machine learning and AI to protect endpoints and cloud workloads. This is crucial in the cloud age that’s full of rapidly expanding endpoints, which include laptops, desktops, smartphones, IoT devices, and more.Remote work and schooling pushed this area of the ever-growing cybersecurity space to the forefront, but it was already booming. More importantly, as devices proliferate and our digitally-connected world grows more complex, it becomes more vulnerable.CrowdStrike on February announced plans to bolster its offerings through the acquisition of Humio for $400 million—expected to close in the first quarter. Humio provides high-performance cloud log management and observability technology. The deal is set to “further expand its eXtended Detection and Response (XDR) capabilities by ingesting and correlating data from any log, application or feed to deliver actionable insights and real-time protection.”CrowdStrike, which went public in the summer of 2019, has soared nearly 280% in the past 12 months. More recently, the stock is up 65% in the last six months, and it already bounced back to new records—which it hit earlier in the week—after it slipped in mid-January.The stock is firmly a growth play at the moment, trading at 42.7X forward sales, which puts it right in line with e-commerce giant ShopifySHOP. Despite its run, the stock is not currently considered overbought, with an RSI of 64.CRWD’s positive earnings revisions help it grab a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at the moment, with it set to release its fourth quarter fiscal 2021 results on March 16. Meanwhile, 14 of the 19 brokerage ratings Zacks has for CRWD come in at a “Strong Buy,” with none lower than a “Hold.”Looking back, the company crushed our Q3 estimates in December, with sales up 86%. CrowdStrike also lifted its guidance at the time. Zacks estimates currently call for it to swing from an adjusted loss of -$0.02 a share in the year-ago period to +$0.09 in the fourth quarter on 65% stronger sales.In total, the cybersecurity firm is projected to soar from a loss of -$0.42 a share to +$0.23 in fiscal 2021.

in the industry in 2020 and no overall declines in jobs and population in the region.</p>\n<p>While the high-profile departures of&nbsp;rich executives and investors like Elon Musk&nbsp;and&nbsp;companies like Oracle Corp.&nbsp;and&nbsp;Hewlett Packard Enterprise Corp.&nbsp;have raised questions about the future of California’s tech powerhouse, an annual report out this week found little evidence of a trend. Instead, the major effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the San Francisco Bay Area in 2020 was the widening of the divide between the haves and have-nots, thanks to all the money still flowing into just a few pockets as the coronavirus ravages poorer communities.</p>\n<p>“Today, we must frankly admit that the pandemic has made the rich richer while the poor are dying,” said Russell Hancock, chief executive of Joint Venture Silicon Valley, which published its annual Silicon Valley Index this week detailing what happened in the region last year.</p>\n<p>The report showed record venture capital investment in Bay Area startups, along with booming market capitalizations for public tech companies and standard-setting initial public offerings. Amid fears of a tech-worker stampede out of the Golden State as companies allowed remote work, the population in Silicon Valley — defined as Santa Clara and San Mateo counties — was mostly flat for the year, rising 0.02%.</p>\n<p>While an overall out-migration was tracked in San Francisco, the vast majority of those who left the most prominent city in the region last year&nbsp;remained in the state, according to U.S. Postal Service data crunched by the San Francisco Chronicle this week. That’s in line with what the Silicon Valley Index shows: 59% of the people who have left the valley in the past few years have stayed in California, moving up or down the state.</p>\n<p>“I think we can all calm down,” said Rachel Massaro, Joint Venture’s director of research, during a news briefing about the index. “We’re a place of innovation. We’re a place that houses these impactful companies. We have not seen any significant losses among them.”</p>\n<p>In short, the region’s biggest companies and highest-paid people fared drastically better and in many cases thrived — white-collar workers, who earn more than three times as those in service occupations, got to work remotely and protect themselves from a deadly virus — while low-wage workers lost jobs and fell ill, their lack of a safety net shining a harsher light on inequality.</p>\n<p>“It’s a tale of two economies,” Hancock said. “There are two stories.”</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e74e27c802a7abc5e4f17381a9dc9f7\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"343\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><b>The tech story</b></p>\n<p>Silicon Valley and San Francisco companies’ market capitalization climbed 37% to $10.5 trillion last year, according to the report, thanks to huge spikes from companies such as Tesla Inc.TSLA,-0.77%,which saw its market cap skyrocket more than 700% in 2020; Apple Inc.AAPL,+0.12%,which saw a 77% increase, while Facebook Inc.FB,-2.91%grew 30% and GoogleGOOGL,-0.81%experienced a 28% boost.</p>\n<p>Big Tech kept getting bigger in other ways as well.

Of the $123.6 billion in U.S. VC funding in 2020, $26.4 billion went to Silicon Valley, $20 billion to San Francisco and $67 billion to California.

San Francisco saw sales tax revenue decline 43% in the second quarter of 2020 compared with the prior year, according to the&nbsp;San Francisco Chronicle, which looked at the effects of the pandemic on the city’s once-bustling&nbsp;downtown.</p>\n<p>What happens to the big businesses — whether they leave, stay, change their work-from-home policies — will affect the small ones, too.</p>\n<p>Alicia Villanueva, who owns Alicia’s Tamales Los Mayas, a tamale factory in Hayward, Calif., and Lynna Martinez, owner of Cuban Kitchen, a restaurant in San Mateo, Calif., both said that despite devastating drops in their revenue, they avoided laying off any employees because of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and other loans.</p>\n<p>Both businesses relied heavily on catering to tech and other companies in the Bay Area.</p>\n<p>“We had hundreds of clients, including Oracle, Facebook, Google and Comcast,” Martinez said. “We would do anywhere between 100 to 300 orders before we opened our doors at 11 a.m. Then in March and April, boom, 50% of our business was gone.”</p>\n<p>The two women said they have had to adjust and make up the lost business however they can. Martinez said her catering business is probably a tenth of what it once was. Villanueva’s son is delivering tamales to a school district that’s more than 60 miles away.</p>\n<p>“He’s waking up at 2 a.m. to get ready and deliver to Vacaville at 5 a.m.,” said Villanueva, who has 21 employees.</p>\n<p>Martinez and her eight employees are relying more on referrals, and she’s now considering franchising.</p>\n<p>“The pandemic forced us to target a wider, more dispersed base,” she said. “In some ways, this was a good challenge for me as a business owner who wanted to pursue the idea of having a franchise.”</p>","source":"market_watch","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

San Francisco saw sales tax revenue decline 43% in the second quarter of 2020 compared with the prior year, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, which looked at the effects of the pandemic on the city’s once-bustling downtown.\nWhat happens to the big businesses — whether they leave, stay, change their work-from-home policies — will affect the small ones, too.\nAlicia Villanueva, who owns Alicia’s Tamales Los Mayas, a tamale factory in Hayward, Calif., and Lynna Martinez, owner of Cuban Kitchen, a restaurant in San Mateo, Calif., both said that despite devastating drops in their revenue, they avoided laying off any employees because of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and other loans.\nBoth businesses relied heavily on catering to tech and other companies in the Bay Area.\n“We had hundreds of clients, including Oracle, Facebook, Google and Comcast,” Martinez said. “We would do anywhere between 100 to 300 orders before we opened our doors at 11 a.m. Then in March and April, boom, 50% of our business was gone.”\nThe two women said they have had to adjust and make up the lost business however they can. Martinez said her catering business is probably a tenth of what it once was. Villanueva’s son is delivering tamales to a school district that’s more than 60 miles away.\n“He’s waking up at 2 a.m. to get ready and deliver to Vacaville at 5 a.m.,” said Villanueva, who has 21 employees.\nMartinez and her eight employees are relying more on referrals, and she’s now considering franchising.\n“The pandemic forced us to target a wider, more dispersed base,” she said. “In some ways, this was a good challenge for me as a business owner who wanted to pursue the idea of having a franchise.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":199,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9090515376,"gmtCreate":1643228112022,"gmtModify":1676533786740,"author":{"id":"3552098389056951","authorId":"3552098389056951","name":"沃斯特","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4ec9f4e6a8cb64f717c3506171561fa8","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3552098389056951","authorIdStr":"3552098389056951"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TIGR\">$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$</a>hello, broker earn money when market are not stable.

Luckily for investors, the EV market is far from a zero-sum game and newcomers continue to enter the space. Chinese EV maker NIO is a rising star in the booming market, as its sales continue to grow. The company is also focused on autonomous driving tech, as well as batteries, which are the lifeblood of the industry.</p><p>NIO sells multiple models that are somewhat in-line with Tesla, from smaller SUVs to sedans. The company said in early January that it delivered 17,353 vehicles in the fourth quarter, which marked a 110% jump.</p><p>Overall, NIO’s full-year deliveries surged 113% to nearly 44,000 vehicles in 2020. And its January 2021 figures were even more impressive, with deliveries up 350% from the year-ago period to push its overall cumulative deliveries to 83K.</p><p>With this in mind, Zacks estimates call for NIO’s FY20 revenue to jump 120% to $2.49 billion, with FY21 projected to come in another 97% higher to reach $4.89 billion. The Chinese EV company is also expected to significantly shrink its adjusted losses during this stretch.</p><p>NIO has topped our EPS estimates in the trailing two periods and its positive earnings revisions help it land a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) heading into the release of its Q4 results on March 1.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b6233d1784a5cb7db62b437f7632a3f\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"314\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>NIO, which rocks an “A” grade for Growth in our Style Scores system, has seen its stock skyrocket over 1,000% in the last year and 300% in the past six months. Luckily for investors who missed the ride, NIO has cooled down, up only 12% in the last three months.</p><p>At roughly $55 per share, it’s down about 13% from its late January records. The recent downturn has seen it fall from overbought in terms of the Relative Strength Index to around 45—an RSI above 70 is often regarded as overbought, with any number below 30 considered oversold.</p><p>NIO’s recent price performance could give it room to run if it’s able to impress Wall Street. And the stock jumped over 1% through morning trading Friday, as it bounces off its 50-day moving average. NIO shares also trade at a discount compared to other high-flyers at 12.7X forward sales, which marks a discount against Tesla’s 15.5X and comes in 25% below its own six-months highs.</p><p>Three out of the nine brokerage recommendations that Zacks has for NIO come in at a “Strong Buy,” with none below a “Hold.” NIO might be worth buying as a long-term play that’s far less expensive than Tesla ($784 a share), in a world where EVs already accounted for over 30% of Volvo’s new car sales in Europe in 2020. And let’s remember that China is one of the world’s largest EV markets.</p><p><b>CrowdStrikeCRWD</b></p><p>CrowdStrike is a cloud-focused cybersecurity firm that utilizes machine learning and AI to protect endpoints and cloud workloads. This is crucial in the cloud age that’s full of rapidly expanding endpoints, which include laptops, desktops, smartphones, IoT devices, and more.</p><p>Remote work and schooling pushed this area of the ever-growing cybersecurity space to the forefront, but it was already booming. More importantly, as devices proliferate and our digitally-connected world grows more complex, it becomes more vulnerable.</p><p>CrowdStrike on February announced plans to bolster its offerings through the acquisition of Humio for $400 million—expected to close in the first quarter. Humio provides high-performance cloud log management and observability technology. The deal is set to “further expand its eXtended Detection and Response (XDR) capabilities by ingesting and correlating data from any log, application or feed to deliver actionable insights and real-time protection.”</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9f684cfbac7ba46e2cf8ab6e063461a2\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"280\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>CrowdStrike, which went public in the summer of 2019, has soared nearly 280% in the past 12 months. More recently, the stock is up 65% in the last six months, and it already bounced back to new records—which it hit earlier in the week—after it slipped in mid-January.</p><p>The stock is firmly a growth play at the moment, trading at 42.7X forward sales, which puts it right in line with e-commerce giant ShopifySHOP. Despite its run, the stock is not currently considered overbought, with an RSI of 64.</p><p>CRWD’s positive earnings revisions help it grab a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at the moment, with it set to release its fourth quarter fiscal 2021 results on March 16. Meanwhile, 14 of the 19 brokerage ratings Zacks has for CRWD come in at a “Strong Buy,” with none lower than a “Hold.”</p><p>Looking back, the company crushed our Q3 estimates in December, with sales up 86%. CrowdStrike also lifted its guidance at the time. Zacks estimates currently call for it to swing from an adjusted loss of -$0.02 a share in the year-ago period to +$0.09 in the fourth quarter on 65% stronger sales.</p><p>In total, the cybersecurity firm is projected to soar from a loss of -$0.42 a share to +$0.23 in fiscal 2021. Plus, CRWD’s FY22 EPS figure is projected to climb another 70% higher, all the way to $0.39 a share. Meanwhile, its revenue is projected to jump 79% to hit $861 million in FY21 and then climb another 42% to $1.22 billion in FY22.</p><p>CrowdStrike’s expected growth would come on top of FY20’s 93% sales expansion. The stock has clearly already gone on an impressive run. But it is poised to continue to grow in a world where everything is connected and data is endless. Therefore, cybersecurity firms such as CrowdStrike might make for strong long-term growth plays.</p><p><b>These Stocks Are Poised to Soar Past the Pandemic</b>The COVID-19 outbreak has shifted consumer behavior dramatically, and a handful of high-tech companies have stepped up to keep America running. Right now, investors in these companies have a shot at serious profits. For example, Zoom jumped 108.5% in less than 4 months while most other stocks were sinking.</p><p>Our research shows that 5 cutting-edge stocks could skyrocket from the exponential increase in demand for “stay at home” technologies.

To be fair, I also sold some Apple shares in June, at lower prices. But the premise of the article was Apple Inc. at $500 a share was just too rich. The underlying fundamentals didn't support it. So I pulled the plug on a position first opened in 2010. The stock was held in a tax-deferred account.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, I took the AAPL proceeds and doubled my position in Alphabet.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/80dea63522140afe3123212127a06309\" tg-width=\"295\" tg-height=\"153\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>I purchased shares between the middle of August and the first few days of October. The average bid price on the incremental position was $1503.</p>\n<p><b>Subsequent Price Action</b></p>\n<p>Now I will be the first to tell you six months doesn't prove a thesis definitively. As an investor (versus a trader or speculator), I generally hold a stock for at least 18 months. Through experience, I've found this to be the minimum amount of time I like to hold a stock in order to give an original investment thesis the \"chance to be right.” Exceptions are cases whereby the original investment thesis is busted. If that happens, I don't wait and hope for things to change. I get out. Alternatively, if a stock runs up much too far, too fast, I may also exit a position early.</p>\n<p>Nonetheless, the six-month return delta between AAPL and GOOGL is so stark it seems a reasonable call out.</p>\n<p>Since I sold the balance of my AAPL stock, the price improved from split-adjusted $124.99 to $135.40. That's an 8.3% increase in six months. Including two dividend payments, the total return would have been 8.6 percent. That's not bad.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, GOOGL shares moved from $1503 (my aggregate purchase price) to $2095.<b>That's a 39% gain.</b></p>\n<p>The upshot isn't to point out making a good six-month call. It's to evaluate the decision-making process behind the call, then plot a path forward.</p>\n<p><b>Apple Shares Were Dear And Remain Dear</b></p>\n<p>In August 2020, my contention was AAPL prices got way ahead of the fundamentals.</p>\n<p>At the time, fiscal year 3Q 2020 (period ending June 30) corporate cash flow was up sharply. Apple Services revenue and margins were advancing nicely, but Apple Products margins were sagging. The Street forecast $15.02 ($3.76 split-adjusted) EPS for 2020 fiscal year, and $18.09 ($4.52 split-adjusted) operating cash flow per share.</p>\n<p>Shares were trading at over 35x earnings, and 26x cash flow.</p>\n<p>Now, with the benefit of two additional quarters behind us, we find the full-year EPS came in at $3.26 and cash flow at $4.60 per share: earnings results were light, and cash flow recorded a modest beat.</p>\n<p>Adding in an additional set of quarterly results (for the period ending 12/31/20), shares now trade at 37x trailing earnings, and 27x cash flow.</p>\n<p>The long-term P/E and P/OCF multiples have been ~16x and 12x, respectively.</p>\n<p>Therefore, while registering an 8.6% total return since mid-August, AAPL shares now appear even MORE overvalued than before.</p>\n<p>Two F.A.S.T. Graphs illustrate the foregoing:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/13c306c732836423e10bfbb5506e6fa9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"421\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/56f9f7cb3aded328606c6f289f6cddc9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"407\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>For a good growth stock, it's customary to look at forward EPS. Based upon current Street estimates, Apple Inc. is trading at 30x this years' EPS, and 25x cash flow. These multiples are still far above the long-term average.</p>\n<p>Note I selected charts whereby the actual long-term growth rates approximate the current expected two-year forward growth rates.</p>\n<p><b>Alphabet Stock Is No Longer A Bargain</b></p>\n<p>Meanwhile, back in August 2020, analysts were setting up Alphabet investors for an off year. The COVID-related economic slowdown certainly affected the business: primarily Google advertising revenue.</p>\n<p>Alphabet met or exceeded 2Q and first-half 2020 numbers; however, revenue, margins, and operating income were contracting.</p>\n<p>Back in August, analysts called for full-year (ending December 31) EPS and cash flow per share to be $44.61 and $78.02, respectively. The Street expected declining year-over-year figures.</p>\n<p>GOOGL shares were trading at 33x EPS, and under 20x operating cash flow. The long-term trimmed averages were 28x and 22x.

We've already looked at forward P/E and P/CF. Now, let's look at PEG ratios. When evaluating a growth stock, the PEG ratio is often one of the most helpful signals. It's determined by taking the current P/E and dividing it by the forward growth rate. When determining the forward growth rate, I like to look out two years.

To be fair, I also sold some Apple shares in June, at lower prices. But the premise of the article was Apple Inc. at $500 a share was just too rich. The underlying fundamentals didn't support it. So I pulled the plug on a position first opened in 2010. The stock was held in a tax-deferred account.\nMeanwhile, I took the AAPL proceeds and doubled my position in Alphabet.\n\nI purchased shares between the middle of August and the first few days of October. The average bid price on the incremental position was $1503.\nSubsequent Price Action\nNow I will be the first to tell you six months doesn't prove a thesis definitively. As an investor (versus a trader or speculator), I generally hold a stock for at least 18 months. Through experience, I've found this to be the minimum amount of time I like to hold a stock in order to give an original investment thesis the \"chance to be right.” Exceptions are cases whereby the original investment thesis is busted. If that happens, I don't wait and hope for things to change. I get out. Alternatively, if a stock runs up much too far, too fast, I may also exit a position early.\nNonetheless, the six-month return delta between AAPL and GOOGL is so stark it seems a reasonable call out.\nSince I sold the balance of my AAPL stock, the price improved from split-adjusted $124.99 to $135.40. That's an 8.3% increase in six months. Including two dividend payments, the total return would have been 8.6 percent. That's not bad.\nOn the other hand, GOOGL shares moved from $1503 (my aggregate purchase price) to $2095.That's a 39% gain.\nThe upshot isn't to point out making a good six-month call. It's to evaluate the decision-making process behind the call, then plot a path forward.\nApple Shares Were Dear And Remain Dear\nIn August 2020, my contention was AAPL prices got way ahead of the fundamentals.\nAt the time, fiscal year 3Q 2020 (period ending June 30) corporate cash flow was up sharply. Apple Services revenue and margins were advancing nicely, but Apple Products margins were sagging. The Street forecast $15.02 ($3.76 split-adjusted) EPS for 2020 fiscal year, and $18.09 ($4.52 split-adjusted) operating cash flow per share.\nShares were trading at over 35x earnings, and 26x cash flow.\nNow, with the benefit of two additional quarters behind us, we find the full-year EPS came in at $3.26 and cash flow at $4.60 per share: earnings results were light, and cash flow recorded a modest beat.\nAdding in an additional set of quarterly results (for the period ending 12/31/20), shares now trade at 37x trailing earnings, and 27x cash flow.\nThe long-term P/E and P/OCF multiples have been ~16x and 12x, respectively.\nTherefore, while registering an 8.6% total return since mid-August, AAPL shares now appear even MORE overvalued than before.\nTwo F.A.S.T. Graphs illustrate the foregoing:\n\nFor a good growth stock, it's customary to look at forward EPS. Based upon current Street estimates, Apple Inc. is trading at 30x this years' EPS, and 25x cash flow. These multiples are still far above the long-term average.\nNote I selected charts whereby the actual long-term growth rates approximate the current expected two-year forward growth rates.\nAlphabet Stock Is No Longer A Bargain\nMeanwhile, back in August 2020, analysts were setting up Alphabet investors for an off year. The COVID-related economic slowdown certainly affected the business: primarily Google advertising revenue.\nAlphabet met or exceeded 2Q and first-half 2020 numbers; however, revenue, margins, and operating income were contracting.\nBack in August, analysts called for full-year (ending December 31) EPS and cash flow per share to be $44.61 and $78.02, respectively. The Street expected declining year-over-year figures.\nGOOGL shares were trading at 33x EPS, and under 20x operating cash flow. The long-term trimmed averages were 28x and 22x. The earnings multiple indicated approximate Fair Value, while the shares were inexpensive on cash flow.\nSo what happened?\nIndeed, Alphabet's numbers rebounded faster than expected. The Street underestimated the snap-back.\nBut the real story was valuation.\nGOOGL posted full-year EPS and cash flow per share figures of $58.61 and $88.82, thereby stomping Street consensus.\nCurrently, Alphabet shares now trade at 36x trailing earnings and 24x cash flow.\nLong-term P/E and P/OCF multiples are 26x and 19x, respectively.\nAnother pair of F.A.S.T. Graphs paint the picture:\n\n\nOn a forward basis, GOOGL is trading at 30x EPS and 18x operating cash flow.\nIndeed, after the big run-up, Alphabet stock has gone from fairly valued / inexpensive to fairly valued / moderately overvalued.\nSumming It Up\nHere's a recap summary table comparing Apple and Alphabet valuation metrics today versus August 2020:\nApple versus Alphabet Valuation Summary\n\n\n\nApple (Feb '21)\nApple (August '20)\nAlphabet (Feb '21)\nAlphabet (August '20)\n\n\nBlended P/E\n36.5x\n35.6x\n35.0x\n32.8x\n\n\nHistorical P/E*\n16x\n15x\n26x\n28x\n\n\nBlended P/OCF\n28x\n25.9x\n22.8x\n19.6x\n\n\nHistorical P/OCF*\n12x\n11x\n19x\n22x\n\n\nProjected EPS growth FY 2021\n35%\n19%\n19%\n27%\n\n\nProjected EPS growth FY 2022\n5%\n7%\n15%\n21%\n\n\nProjected OCF growth FY 2021\n19%\n8%\n27%\n21%\n\n\nProjected OCF FY 2022\n2%\n1%\n17%\n20%\n\n\n\nAAPL stock was heavily overvalued in August 2020.

That was the highest level since February 2018.</p>\n<p>A reading above 50 indicates expansion in manufacturing, which accounts for 11.9% of the U.S. economy. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast the index edging up to 58.9 in February.</p>\n<p>The increase was despite a global semiconductor chip shortage, which has hurt production at automobile plants.</p>\n<p>The survey added to solid January data on consumer spending, building permits, factory production and home sales in suggesting that the economy got off to a strong start in the first quarter, thanks to nearly $900 billion in additional COVID-19 relief money from the government and a drop in new coronavirus infections and hospitalizations.</p>\n<p>But the year-long pandemic has gummed up the supply chain, boosting production costs for manufacturers. The survey’s measure of prices paid by manufacturers jumped to a reading of 86.0, the highest since July 2008, from 82.1 in January.</p>\n<p>This follows data last month showing a surge in consumers’ near-term inflation expectations, and fits in with views that inflation will accelerate in the months ahead. Economists are, however, split on whether the anticipated spike in price pressures will be transitory or not.</p>\n<p>U.S. Treasury yields have risen, with investors betting that extremely accommodative monetary and fiscal policy will boost inflation. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has played down these fears, citing three decades of lower and stable prices.</p>\n<p>There is also ample capacity in the labor market, with at least 19 million people on unemployment benefits. But Americans grounded at home by COVID-19 have accumulated excess savings, which can provide to a powerful tailwind to spending.</p>\n<p>Manufacturing has been driven by strong demand for goods, like electronics and furniture, as 23.2% of the labor force works from home because of the virus. Demand could, however, shift back to services in the summer as more Americans get vaccinated, and slow manufacturing activity from current levels.</p>\n<p>The ISM’s forward-looking new orders sub-index increased to a reading of 64.8 last month from 61.1 in January.

It’s too volatile to serve well as a medium of exchange,” he said.\nAsked about bitcoin’s price and Tesla’s market cap, Munger said, “I don’t know which is worse.”\n\nCharlie Munger, vice chairman of Berkshire Hathaway and Warren Buffett’s longtime business partner, on Wednesday dismissed the rocketing share price of Tesla and the recent bitcoin frenzy.\nDuring an interview at the Daily Journal’s annual shareholder’s meeting,Munger was asked whether he thought it was crazier for bitcoin to hit $50,000 or for Tesla to reach a $1 trillion fully diluted enterprise value, he said: “Well I have the same difficulty that Samuel Johnson once had when he got a similar question, he said, ‘I can’t decide the order of precedency between a flea and a louse,’ and I feel the same way about those choices. I don’t know which is worse.”\nShares of Tesla rocketed 743% last year, though it’s currently down about 3% for 2021. Its market cap is about $689 billion. Bitcoin continued to surge to more than $50,000 over the past week after Tesla announced it bought $1.5 billion worth of the cryptocurrency.\nMunger was also asked what the biggest threat to banking is, and whether it was bitcoin or digital wallets like Apple Pay and Square.\n“I don’t think I know what the future of banking is, and I don’t think I know how the payment system will evolve,” he said. “I do think that a properly run bank is a great contributor to civilization and that the central banks of the world like controlling their own banking system and their own money supplies.”\n“So I don’t think bitcoin is going to end up the medium of exchange for the world. It’s too volatile to serve well as a medium of exchange. And it’s really kind of an artificial substitute for gold. And since I never buy any gold, I never buy any bitcoin.”\nMunger recommended others follow his practice.\n“Bitcoin reminds me of what Oscar Wilde said about fox hunting. He said it was the pursuit of the uneatable by the unspeakable,” he added.\nDuring the same event,Munger also issued a dire warning for novice investors he said are being lured into a trading bubble through apps like Robinhood.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":347,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":382225995,"gmtCreate":1613455222917,"gmtModify":1704880645035,"author":{"id":"3552098389056951","authorId":"3552098389056951","name":"沃斯特","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4ec9f4e6a8cb64f717c3506171561fa8","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3552098389056951","authorIdStr":"3552098389056951"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/382225995","repostId":"1143750442","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":47,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":361617797,"gmtCreate":1614228375819,"gmtModify":1704889875030,"author":{"id":"3552098389056951","authorId":"3552098389056951","name":"沃斯特","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4ec9f4e6a8cb64f717c3506171561fa8","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3552098389056951","authorIdStr":"3552098389056951"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wah","listText":"Wah","text":"Wah","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/361617797","repostId":"1138521814","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":475,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":361617625,"gmtCreate":1614228351667,"gmtModify":1704889874386,"author":{"id":"3552098389056951","authorId":"3552098389056951","name":"沃斯特","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4ec9f4e6a8cb64f717c3506171561fa8","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3552098389056951","authorIdStr":"3552098389056951"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"wah","listText":"wah","text":"wah","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/361617625","repostId":"1138521814","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":314,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
