POINTSFed Governor Christopher Waller told CNBC on Friday that the economy “is ready to rip.However, he said there’s still “no reason to be pulling the plug” on the heavy levels of policy support the central bank is providing.Waller said he also expects inflationary pressures to be temporary, though he forecasts 2021 to run at 2.5%, well above the Fed’s 2% target.Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller said Friday he sees the U.S. economy as set to take off, though not at a fast enough pace that the central bank should start tightening policy.\"I think the economy is ready to rip,\" Waller told CNBC'sSteve Liesmanduring a \"Squawk on the Street\" interview. \"There's still more to do on that, but I think everyone's getting a lot more comfortable with having the virus under control and we're starting to see it in the form of economic activity.\"Those comments came amid a decidedly upward move in economic data.In March alone, nonfarmpayrolls jumped by 916,000, retail sales sawa 9.8% stimulus-fueled boom, and multiple manufacturing gauges reached their highest levels in years.There are further indications that job growth continued into April, with jobless claims last week tumbling to 576,000, easily the lowest level since the early days of the pandemic.Coupled all that witha vaccination pacein excess of the 3 million a day, and it adds up to a strong outlook, Waller said.“We can get the virus pretty much under control. We get 70% of the population vaccinated, then all the fundamentals are there for good, strong growth that we left back in January, February of 2020,” he said. “We’ve still got room to catch up to where we were. We’re making up for lost ground.”‘No reason to be pulling the plug’The economy officially entered recession in February 2020, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research, which makes the official call on contractions and expansions. While the U.S. is poised for another quarter of strong growth, gross domestic product is still running a bit below where it was prior to the Covid-19 onset.That’s part of the reason Waller concurs with his fellow central bankers in seeingthe need to keep policy loose. The Fed is currently holding short-term borrowing rates near zero while it purchases at least $120 billion of bonds each month.In a major policy shift last year, the Fed pledged that it will not raise rates until it sees full and inclusive employment, and is willing to tolerate inflation a bit above the traditional 2% target until it gets there. Fed officials have expressed concern about the uneven nature of the recovery, particularly regarding those at the lower end of the income spectrum.“We’ve got to make that up first,” Waller said. “Other parts of the economy seem to have really come back. We still have relatively high unemployment rates, particularly for minorities, and so we’ve still got a long way to go. There’s no reason to be pulling the plug on our support till we’re really through this.”Waller added that he thinks inflationary pressures that have begun to show up are likely temporary, a view widely held at the Fed. The consumer price index rose 2.6% in March from a year ago.Waller said he expects the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge based on personal consumption expenditures could run around 2.5% for 2021.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":345,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":379131189,"gmtCreate":1618704240741,"gmtModify":1704714097013,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[What]&nbsp;","listText":"[What]&nbsp;","text":"[What]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/379131189","repostId":"1175692875","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1175692875","pubTimestamp":1618582708,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1175692875?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-16 22:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"$544 Billion In Options Expire Today: Here's What Will Move","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1175692875","media":"zerohedge","summary":"While it's not quad (or even triple) witching day, today's a whole lot of weekly options will expire","content":"<p>While it's not quad (or even triple) witching day, today's a whole lot of weekly options will expire, may of which will be worthless, and others will be providing a supporting \"pin\" to underlying prices. It's why, even though we are enjoying a beautiful spring week, Goldman notes that single stock options trading activity is elevated relative to historical levels. To wit, daily options volumes are up 70% in April, up from YTD lows of $2.4bn on 30-Mar.</p><p><b>In total, across single stocks, $544BN of options are set to expiry today, including $305BN calls.</b>As such, today’s expiry could be important for stocks with large open interest in at-the-money(ATM) options, as market makers delta-hedging their unusually large options portfolios will be active. This flow is likely to dampen volatility in some names while exacerbating stock price moves in others.</p><p>How to trade this?</p><p>As Goldman's Vishal Vivek writes, at major expirations, options traders track situations where<b>a large amount of open interest is set to expire.</b>In situations where there is a significant amount of expiring open interest in at-the-money strikes (strike prices at or very near the current stockprice), delta-hedging activity can impact the underlying stock’s trading that day. If market makers or other options traders who delta-hedge their positions are net long ATM options, expiration-related flow could have the effect of dampening stock price movements, causing the stock price to settle near the strike with large open interest. This situation is often referred to as a “pin” and can be an ideal situation fora large investor trying to enter/exit a stock position. Alternatively, if delta-hedgers are net short ATM options (have a “negative gamma” position), their hedging activity could exacerbate stock price moves.</p><p>What that means it expiration-related trades may cause trading activity to aggressively pick up for stocks with a significant amount of ATM open interest.</p><p>So to help traders looking to hop on for daytrading opportunities, here is a table identifying possible focus stocks with large ATM open interest expiring today, which is compared to the average daily volume of the underlying stocks. As Goldman puts it, \"<i>expiration-related activity is likely to have more of an impact if the open interest represents a significant percentage of the stock’s volume.\"</i></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0dac61cb87c2f2700d8a0e8e64324f81\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"638\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Finally, for what it's worth, this morning our friends at SpotGamma write that this has been a rather strange OPEX cycle, \"with a consistent almost mechanical bid pushing markets higher. We’ve not seen the Call Wall “breached” this many times before, but there are other aberrations that we’ve mentioned in previous notes – like net put sales. We’ve got some theories on this we are posting in a longer form piece.\"</p><p>According to SG, because implied volatility has now compressed (ie VIX at new lows) there is now more potential for “long term” volatility. Recall how as of late any sharp, violent drop in markets was bought so quickly (see chart below).<b>These bursts lower coincided with record VIX spikes, but a reflective snap-back bid would bring a market recovery of equal force as the VIX&nbsp; (i.e. implied volatility) reversed.</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae7a60d873792b825bdda669cafa0ed3\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"297\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">And one other curious observation from SpotGamma:</p><blockquote>When implied volatility is very high, its very sensitive to market moves and also signaling that markets are expecting more large moves ahead. As soon as markets would pause or catch a support level, that implied volatility would quickly reverse lower. <b>We often think of this analogy that if a shark stops swimming, it sinks ( partially true!).

It's why, even though we are enjoying a beautiful spring week, Goldman notes that single stock options trading activity is elevated relative to historical levels. To wit, daily options volumes are up 70% in April, up from YTD lows of $2.4bn on 30-Mar.In total, across single stocks, $544BN of options are set to expiry today, including $305BN calls.As such, today’s expiry could be important for stocks with large open interest in at-the-money(ATM) options, as market makers delta-hedging their unusually large options portfolios will be active. This flow is likely to dampen volatility in some names while exacerbating stock price moves in others.How to trade this?As Goldman's Vishal Vivek writes, at major expirations, options traders track situations wherea large amount of open interest is set to expire.In situations where there is a significant amount of expiring open interest in at-the-money strikes (strike prices at or very near the current stockprice), delta-hedging activity can impact the underlying stock’s trading that day. If market makers or other options traders who delta-hedge their positions are net long ATM options, expiration-related flow could have the effect of dampening stock price movements, causing the stock price to settle near the strike with large open interest. This situation is often referred to as a “pin” and can be an ideal situation fora large investor trying to enter/exit a stock position. Alternatively, if delta-hedgers are net short ATM options (have a “negative gamma” position), their hedging activity could exacerbate stock price moves.What that means it expiration-related trades may cause trading activity to aggressively pick up for stocks with a significant amount of ATM open interest.So to help traders looking to hop on for daytrading opportunities, here is a table identifying possible focus stocks with large ATM open interest expiring today, which is compared to the average daily volume of the underlying stocks. As Goldman puts it, \"expiration-related activity is likely to have more of an impact if the open interest represents a significant percentage of the stock’s volume.\"Finally, for what it's worth, this morning our friends at SpotGamma write that this has been a rather strange OPEX cycle, \"with a consistent almost mechanical bid pushing markets higher. We’ve not seen the Call Wall “breached” this many times before, but there are other aberrations that we’ve mentioned in previous notes – like net put sales. We’ve got some theories on this we are posting in a longer form piece.\"According to SG, because implied volatility has now compressed (ie VIX at new lows) there is now more potential for “long term” volatility. Recall how as of late any sharp, violent drop in markets was bought so quickly (see chart below).These bursts lower coincided with record VIX spikes, but a reflective snap-back bid would bring a market recovery of equal force as the VIX  (i.e. implied volatility) reversed.And one other curious observation from SpotGamma:When implied volatility is very high, its very sensitive to market moves and also signaling that markets are expecting more large moves ahead. As soon as markets would pause or catch a support level, that implied volatility would quickly reverse lower. We often think of this analogy that if a shark stops swimming, it sinks ( partially true!). If the market stops dropping then Implied volatility sinks.With this, as we often talk about, lower implied volatility (ie lower VIX) signals market makers have to buy back short hedges which fuels rallies. SG's conclusion: this current level of lower implied volatility now gives the market more downside firepower.  Starting with a lower implied volatility “slows down” that responsive “snap-back” buying mechanism.  Additionally, gamma is higher when IV is lower so gamma flips may have more juice.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":449,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":357186506,"gmtCreate":1617246597705,"gmtModify":1704697763961,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Shall wait and see for now… anot much hype thesefew days.&nbsp;","listText":"Shall wait and see for now… anot much hype thesefew days.&nbsp;","text":"Shall wait and see for now… anot much hype thesefew days.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/357186506","repostId":"2124208563","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":618,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":322372442,"gmtCreate":1615778098586,"gmtModify":1704786358808,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"i&nbsp;am a subscriber and shareholder too. disney fans!!!","listText":"i&nbsp;am a subscriber and shareholder too. disney fans!!!","text":"i am a subscriber and shareholder too. disney fans!!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/322372442","repostId":"1141300773","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1141300773","pubTimestamp":1615777101,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1141300773?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-15 10:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Disney: What Is Disney+ Really Worth To Shareholders","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1141300773","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"In the past 16 months, Disney+ has gained 100 million subscribers.The market has generally viewed Disney+ as a major needle mover for the company overall.My goal is to find out how much value can Disney+ add for current shareholders.Disney+ has been a major catalyst for The Walt Disney Company  since it was first announced in April of 2019.

I am at a point of trying to figure out if the excitement around Disney+ and its incredible subscriber growth is worth the premium that the stock is currently trading at. For me, the idea of locking in a 100% return in three years would be great as this is one of the first stocks I invested in. What I want to do is try to look at Disney+ on its own and see what value I can come up for the service to see if I should continue to hold the stock long term or if I should lock in my gains and move on to other opportunities. As a disclaimer, this is purely my valuation and where I see the service going. As such, your valuation will probably differ depending on how you view a few of the assumptions I had to make. Unfortunately, the company does not break out the operating cost of Disney+, but there are some clues as to what the operating margins are, and as such, I will be pulling together what I believe are the operating margins for the service.</p>\n<p><b>What Are The Costs Of Disney+?</b></p>\n<p>The first thing I needed to find out was what were the operating expenses for Disney+? In Disney's most recent&nbsp;10-Q, they do break out what the cost are for their DTC (Direct-to-Consumer) segment, but while this includes Disney+ expenses, it also includes the expenses of ESPN+ and Hulu. So, in going through the line items of the expense side of the income statement and deciphering the footnotes, we can come to a reasonable operating income for Disney+. If you see below, the DTC segment is still operating at a loss, but these losses are starting to deteriorate and may soon become a profitable segment for Disney in the near future.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bc30a144042eaefbed0c83e9765c5d70\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"250\"><span>(Source: Disney 2021 Q1 10-Q)</span></p>\n<p>You can see for the quarter, the overall operating expenses come in at $2,921 million, SG&amp;A at $970 million and Depreciation and amortization at $79 million. From here, we will have to go the footnotes in order to see if we can extrapolate Disney+'s overall operating cost.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d110655bf2e940dec8116ebe66f9e9d4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"401\"><span>(Source: Disney 2021 Q1 10-Q)</span></p>\n<p>We can see that in December of 2019, overall expenses here were $2,343 billion and in January of 2021, expenses were $2,921 million. This can be a good starting point and offer an idea of what it cost per quarter to run Disney+. This of course is an approximation because Disney+ was launched in November of 2019, so our base quarter does have some of those expenses rolled into it, but I believe it is minimal due to the fact that there is only one month of data rolled into these expenses. I should note that some of these expense increases were due to Disney's 67% ownership in Hulu and as such most likely did contribute as well to the overall operating expenses. Since we don't really know for sure what the split is between Hulu and Disney+, we will assume that all of the increase was due to Disney+ (call it a margin of safety if you will). So, given that fact we can assume that per quarter it cost about $578 million or $2,312 million a year for operating expenses. For SG&amp;A, it looks like we can safely assume about a $238 million per quarter increase attributable solely to marketing for Disney+, which works out to be about $952 million for the year. Depreciation and amortization is also tied almost directly to Disney+ at about $19 million per quarter of, $76 million for the year. You can see below that the total expenses for running Disney plus come out to be about $3,186 million per year.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/73b127864cd5486905755e3e9e44bbed\" tg-width=\"815\" tg-height=\"320\"></p>\n<p><b>What Will Revenues Be?</b></p>\n<p>This is where we have to make our biggest assumptions on what revenues will look like for Disney+. The growth in subscribers has even surprised Disney executives, with&nbsp;over 50% of subscribers being households without kids,making the value appeal for subscribers even broader. As of March 9th of 2021, total subscribers for the service&nbsp;topped 100 million, which blew past Disney's initial estimates and they have now revised their estimates to reflect between 230 and 260 million subscribers by 2024. While it will be hard to tell how realistic this goal is, the service certainly has the momentum to justify the overall growth given the potential international reach. What will be interesting to watch for is the average revenue per user (ARPU) and how that will grow as time goes on. You can see that so far for Disney+, ARPU has declined from about $5.56 to $4.03. According to the most recent 10-Q, the decline is attributable to the launch of Disney+ Hotstar service launched in India and Indonesia.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d8d515e5a68c0cb68e17984492298aa4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"156\"><span>(Source: Disney 2021 Q1 10-Q)</span></p>\n<p>As it stands with 100 million subscribers and an ARPU of $4.03, revenues so far would fall at $403 million per month or $4,836 million per year. If we assume that for this year that subscribers will grow about 6 million per month for the next nine months and an ARPU of $4 for the year we would come to 154 million subscribers and $7,392 million in revenue which we will us for our base case in our valuation of Disney+.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cdade273a773d9de241df796dbcf680c\" tg-width=\"817\" tg-height=\"272\"></p>\n<p><b>Valuing Disney+</b></p>\n<p>One of the biggest challenges with valuation is making the assumptions in growth over a long period of time. My usual method for valuing any business is by taking a range of values of using a couple of scenarios that I believe are possible and this is how I will present my valuation. Both scenarios will assume that the high growth phase for Disney+ continues for at least the next five years and then begins to fade for the next five years. Each scenario will also assume that the number of subscribers begins at 154 million with $7,392 million in revenue based on $4 monthly ARPU and margins will begin at 34%. I have calculated Disney's overall cost of capital to be about 9.5% and this will be used in both scenarios.</p>\n<p><b>Scenario 1:</b></p>\n<p>In this scenario Disney+ will continue to grow at a high rate even after the first 5 years, although this pace will be slower than the first five years. The competition has a hard time keeping up and as such there is low churn and the platform has great sticking power, ARPU will continue to rise at a moderately high rate until it reaches about $16. As growth begins to slow, Disney will pull back on the growth marketing spend and transition to a more moderate amount of marketing to replace churn which will raise margins.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f32924a0a6e113ef9d89fac4143d4b14\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"83\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1dba93c03f1d4a4e745021aa3b1cc220\" tg-width=\"815\" tg-height=\"317\"></p>\n<p><b>Scenario 2:</b></p>\n<p>In this scenario, Disney+ growth in the first five years is slower than expected. The goal of between 230 to 240 takes a couple more years to achieve than expected and due to this lower growth ARPU does not rise nearly as fast in order to reduce churn and keep the value proposition intact. Margins will start to lower as more money is being spent to attract new subscribers and make more content. Disney+ in this instance faces more competition from other services and has to create more content which would result in some of this content being a flop.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0aaed5ea9a63f499ddcb441b68b45994\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"82\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/72734aac549e172bfe59a411dcaeb81e\" tg-width=\"818\" tg-height=\"320\"></p>\n<p><b>Final Thoughts</b></p>\n<p>Based on both of my scenarios, the value of Disney+ has quite a large range. The potential for Disney+ landed in between $148 and $36 per share of added value. If you take the midpoint of these two extremes, you would land around $92 a share of added value. I will note the one item I did not include was what taxes will be in the future. I didn't model this just due to the uncertainties around future taxes and the fact that Disney may have incurred net operating losses due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, this has been a helpful exercise in trying to determine what I should do going forward.</p>\n<p>With the majority of the stock price movement being attributed to Disney+, it looks like there may be justification to today's current price.

The company was clearly making a strong pitch for getting content directly to consumers through the use of streaming services. Ever since the company had acquired Bamtech in 2017, the plan was clearly to leverage this technology to change the way consumers view their content. With a huge library of content already available to the company, the only obstacle was getting the content distributed.\nSource: Company\nI have a been a shareholder since the middle of 2018 and have a cost basis of $100 per share and my question is how much value is Disney+ actually adding? I am at a point of trying to figure out if the excitement around Disney+ and its incredible subscriber growth is worth the premium that the stock is currently trading at. For me, the idea of locking in a 100% return in three years would be great as this is one of the first stocks I invested in. What I want to do is try to look at Disney+ on its own and see what value I can come up for the service to see if I should continue to hold the stock long term or if I should lock in my gains and move on to other opportunities. As a disclaimer, this is purely my valuation and where I see the service going. As such, your valuation will probably differ depending on how you view a few of the assumptions I had to make. Unfortunately, the company does not break out the operating cost of Disney+, but there are some clues as to what the operating margins are, and as such, I will be pulling together what I believe are the operating margins for the service.\nWhat Are The Costs Of Disney+?\nThe first thing I needed to find out was what were the operating expenses for Disney+? In Disney's most recent 10-Q, they do break out what the cost are for their DTC (Direct-to-Consumer) segment, but while this includes Disney+ expenses, it also includes the expenses of ESPN+ and Hulu. So, in going through the line items of the expense side of the income statement and deciphering the footnotes, we can come to a reasonable operating income for Disney+. If you see below, the DTC segment is still operating at a loss, but these losses are starting to deteriorate and may soon become a profitable segment for Disney in the near future.\n(Source: Disney 2021 Q1 10-Q)\nYou can see for the quarter, the overall operating expenses come in at $2,921 million, SG&A at $970 million and Depreciation and amortization at $79 million. From here, we will have to go the footnotes in order to see if we can extrapolate Disney+'s overall operating cost.\n(Source: Disney 2021 Q1 10-Q)\nWe can see that in December of 2019, overall expenses here were $2,343 billion and in January of 2021, expenses were $2,921 million. This can be a good starting point and offer an idea of what it cost per quarter to run Disney+. This of course is an approximation because Disney+ was launched in November of 2019, so our base quarter does have some of those expenses rolled into it, but I believe it is minimal due to the fact that there is only one month of data rolled into these expenses. I should note that some of these expense increases were due to Disney's 67% ownership in Hulu and as such most likely did contribute as well to the overall operating expenses. Since we don't really know for sure what the split is between Hulu and Disney+, we will assume that all of the increase was due to Disney+ (call it a margin of safety if you will). So, given that fact we can assume that per quarter it cost about $578 million or $2,312 million a year for operating expenses. For SG&A, it looks like we can safely assume about a $238 million per quarter increase attributable solely to marketing for Disney+, which works out to be about $952 million for the year. Depreciation and amortization is also tied almost directly to Disney+ at about $19 million per quarter of, $76 million for the year. You can see below that the total expenses for running Disney plus come out to be about $3,186 million per year.\n\nWhat Will Revenues Be?\nThis is where we have to make our biggest assumptions on what revenues will look like for Disney+. The growth in subscribers has even surprised Disney executives, with over 50% of subscribers being households without kids,making the value appeal for subscribers even broader. As of March 9th of 2021, total subscribers for the service topped 100 million, which blew past Disney's initial estimates and they have now revised their estimates to reflect between 230 and 260 million subscribers by 2024. While it will be hard to tell how realistic this goal is, the service certainly has the momentum to justify the overall growth given the potential international reach. What will be interesting to watch for is the average revenue per user (ARPU) and how that will grow as time goes on. You can see that so far for Disney+, ARPU has declined from about $5.56 to $4.03. According to the most recent 10-Q, the decline is attributable to the launch of Disney+ Hotstar service launched in India and Indonesia.\n(Source: Disney 2021 Q1 10-Q)\nAs it stands with 100 million subscribers and an ARPU of $4.03, revenues so far would fall at $403 million per month or $4,836 million per year. If we assume that for this year that subscribers will grow about 6 million per month for the next nine months and an ARPU of $4 for the year we would come to 154 million subscribers and $7,392 million in revenue which we will us for our base case in our valuation of Disney+.\n\nValuing Disney+\nOne of the biggest challenges with valuation is making the assumptions in growth over a long period of time. My usual method for valuing any business is by taking a range of values of using a couple of scenarios that I believe are possible and this is how I will present my valuation. Both scenarios will assume that the high growth phase for Disney+ continues for at least the next five years and then begins to fade for the next five years. Each scenario will also assume that the number of subscribers begins at 154 million with $7,392 million in revenue based on $4 monthly ARPU and margins will begin at 34%. I have calculated Disney's overall cost of capital to be about 9.5% and this will be used in both scenarios.\nScenario 1:\nIn this scenario Disney+ will continue to grow at a high rate even after the first 5 years, although this pace will be slower than the first five years. The competition has a hard time keeping up and as such there is low churn and the platform has great sticking power, ARPU will continue to rise at a moderately high rate until it reaches about $16. As growth begins to slow, Disney will pull back on the growth marketing spend and transition to a more moderate amount of marketing to replace churn which will raise margins.\n\nScenario 2:\nIn this scenario, Disney+ growth in the first five years is slower than expected. The goal of between 230 to 240 takes a couple more years to achieve than expected and due to this lower growth ARPU does not rise nearly as fast in order to reduce churn and keep the value proposition intact. Margins will start to lower as more money is being spent to attract new subscribers and make more content. Disney+ in this instance faces more competition from other services and has to create more content which would result in some of this content being a flop.\n\nFinal Thoughts\nBased on both of my scenarios, the value of Disney+ has quite a large range. The potential for Disney+ landed in between $148 and $36 per share of added value. If you take the midpoint of these two extremes, you would land around $92 a share of added value. I will note the one item I did not include was what taxes will be in the future. I didn't model this just due to the uncertainties around future taxes and the fact that Disney may have incurred net operating losses due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, this has been a helpful exercise in trying to determine what I should do going forward.\nWith the majority of the stock price movement being attributed to Disney+, it looks like there may be justification to today's current price. That being said, the stock may be close to fully priced, especially given the current state of the rest of Disney's operating segments, most notably the Parks and Experiences segments. When I initially invested in Disney, the plan was to hold onto this stock forever, but the current valuation of Disney+ is certainly given me pause and I will need to rethink whether I should sell and move on to other opportunities. I still believe this is a great company with a long runway, but with the words of Warren Buffett in my ear, \"Price is what you pay, value is what you get\".","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":258,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":322372631,"gmtCreate":1615778065323,"gmtModify":1704786358163,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Looks good.

With a $30 billion headline, what we’re able to do here is bring cash in … which will allow us to put that toward additional debt reduction.”\nMichael Binger, president of Gradient Investments, applauded the company’s efforts to right the ship.\n“Culp and his predecessor Mr. Flannery have done a great job in their restructuring here. They’ve had four tasks: they’re shedding assets, they’re paying down debt, they’re focusing on their core businesses and they’re getting their underfunded pension fund healthy. I think as GE gets smaller and smaller, the market is going to like it more and more,” Binger told CNBC’s “Trading Nation” on Wednesday.\nOther recent efforts include GE’s sale of its biopharma business to Danaher and its majority divestment of oil company Baker Hughes.\nInvestors did not rally on the AerCap deal, though. GE shares tumbled 5% on Wednesday after the company also released full-year earnings guidance on the soft side.\nBinger, while confident in the restructuring plans, does not see the stock as a buy here, either.\n“Being cash flow positive is good, focusing on core positives is good, and getting down to a targeted EBITDA-to-debt level is good, but after the stock has doubled, we would not be buyers here. We would wait for lower prices before we stepped in,” he said.\nGE’s shares have rallied more than 120% in the past six months, hitting a fresh 52-week high as recently as this week.\nQuint Tatro, president of Joule Financial, is also wary of putting money to work in the stock.\n“General Electric keeps shedding businesses, albeit with good intentions to shore up that balance sheet, but they’re doing it in sectors and environments that are finally turning around. We’re seeing energy turn around. We’re seeing aircrafts coming out of Covid and the quarantine, and people are going to be traveling. So they’re selling business that I think they could be benefiting from,” Tatro said in the same interview.\nHe added that there are far better places for investors to look to instead of GE.\n“I just don’t think it’s worthy of capital here, there are too many other options. Even though it looks cheap, among a variety of metrics, I think investors need to steer clear,” Tatro said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":386,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":320064414,"gmtCreate":1614991807938,"gmtModify":1704777966115,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy more on dipped. this will definitely recover back even higher.&nbsp;","listText":"Buy more on dipped. this will definitely recover back even higher.&nbsp;","text":"Buy more on dipped. this will definitely recover back even higher.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/320064414","repostId":"1196034072","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1196034072","pubTimestamp":1614953178,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1196034072?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-05 22:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is The Nio Sell-Off Overdone?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1196034072","media":"Benzinga","summary":"NIO Inc.  shares have been soundly thrashed in the tech sell-off, and thequarterlyreport released ea","content":"<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">NIO Inc.</a> &nbsp;shares have been soundly thrashed in the tech sell-off, and thequarterlyreport released&nbsp;earlier this week did little to assuage sentiment.

The stock is now in bear market territory, having pulled back 35.7 % from the Feb. 10 high of $64.60.Is the sell-off in the shares justified? Did fundamentals flash the red light to investors, who were thronging to the stock in droves ahead of the current downturn?The 2020 Highs: The COVID-19 pandemic, which broke out at the end of 2019 and ravaged the global economies for much of 2020, proved a blessing for some companies that benefited from the adversity.Nio, a luxury EV maker, should have taken a big hit in the year, as cash-strapped users preferred to hold back on big-ticket buys. The company did have its momentum of despair in the first two months of 2020. Not bogged down by the adverse geopolitical milieu, the EV startup chose to be proactive instead. The company announced several innovative product andservice offerings.Deliveries continued to climb through the year, with Nio's charismatic CEO William Bin attributing the strength to the growing recognition of its premium brand, the competitive and compelling products and services, the expanding sales network, and most importantly, the support from its passionate and loyal user community.For 2020, Nio delivered 43,728 vehicles, an increase of 111% year-over-year.The company also managed to rein in costs, giving margins a lift. It also succeeded in mobilizing finances through a combination of equity, debt and strategic investments, removing a key existential risk it faced in 2019.Promptly the stock began discounting the fundamental improvement and closed out 2020 with a gain in excess of 1,100%.

This method means it won’t raise any new money, similar to approaches used by Palantir Technologies,Slack Technologies&nbsp;and Spotify Technology&nbsp;in recent years.</p>\n<p>Here’s what to know about the popular trading platform ahead of its public offering.</p>\n<p><b>What is Coinbase?</b></p>\n<p>The Silicon Valley crypto exchange was co-founded in 2012 by Brian Armstrong, 38, who runs the platform chief executive. Fred Ehrsam, a Coinbase director, also helped to create the company.</p>\n<p>There are two class of Coinbase shares. Armstrong owns 11% of the Class A shares and 22% of the Class B shares, while Ehrsam owns 11.4% of the Class A and 9% of the Class B.</p>\n<p>According to Forbes, Armstrong’s networth is currently $6.5 billion based on his ownership in the company, which is likely to increase if the direct listing goes off successfully.</p>\n<p>Coinbase bills itself as a bet on the rapidly growing cryptoeconomy, which starts with the No. 1 crypto asset bitcoin but goes well beyond that, Armstrong and company argue.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67e611f71f8557b80e1863da93d753c9\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"639\"><span>COINBASE S-1</span></p>\n<p>Bitcoin prices&nbsp;have gained attention as it has soared to repeated records, most recently touching a recent peak above $58,000 over the weekend before beginning to give up some gains in recent trade.</p>\n<p>Last week, bitcoin hit a market value of $1 trillion and even though the asset created by a person or persons known as Satoshi Nakamoto represents about 70% of the total crypto market, there are still a number of other popular crypto assets trading on Coinbase, including ether&nbsp;on Ethereum’s blockchain, Bitcoin Cash&nbsp;and Litecoin,to name a few.</p>\n<p><b>Who else owns Coinbase?</b></p>\n<p>Venture-capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, is the largest owner of Coinbase, boasting about 25% of Class A shares and14% of Class B. And Marc Andreessen, head of the venture capital outfit, sits on Coinbase’s board.</p>\n<p>Coinbase has an ambitions echo those of Robinhood Markets</p>\n<p>“Coinbase is company with an ambitious vision: to create more economic freedom for every person and business,” Armstrong wrote in a letter appended to the company’s public-filing paperwork with the SEC.</p>\n<p><b>Biggest risk factor</b></p>\n<p>No doubt the biggest risk factor in Coinbase is that it is a bet on an unproven asset class that was created just over a decade ago. Coinbase attempts to make it clear that its fate is linked to the prospects for Bitcoin and ethereum and the thousands of other alternative coins that have been written into existence.</p>\n<p>But a decline in interest and tough regulations in the U.S. and elsewhere could wallop the exchange platform.</p>\n<p>Here’s now Coinbase explains it:</p>\n<p>“<i>There is no assurance that any supported crypto asset will maintain its value or that there will be meaningful levels of trading activities. In the event that the price of crypto assets or the demand for trading crypto assets decline, our business, operating results, and financial condition would be adversely affected. A majority of our net revenue is from transactions in Bitcoin and ethereum. If demand for these crypto assets declines and is not replaced by new demand for crypto assets, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected</i>,” Coinbase writes in its S-1 filing.</p>\n<p><b>How large is Coinbase?</b></p>\n<p>The crypto exchange platform ranks No. 3 among the largest digital asset exchanges in the world, according to data site CoinMarketCap.com. That ranking puts it behind Binance, based in Seattle and Huobi Global, a Seychelles-based cryptocurrency exchange that was founded in China.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/183f3996adecd36a47a1b191cf6d3ca6\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"453\"><span>COINMARKETCAP.COM</span></p>\n<p>In the U.S. Coinbase is by far the most well-known crypto platform but there are competitors, including Gemini, run by Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, who famously used their Facebook Inc.&nbsp;settlements to invest in bitcoins.</p>\n<p>Kraken is another popular crypto platform and direct competitor in the U.S.</p>\n<p><b>Odds &amp; Ends</b></p>\n<p>The company in its public filing offered a number of homages to the founder or founders of bitcoin and the digital currency age in its submission.</p>\n<p>For example, it listed the genesis block associated with Satoshi Nakamoto at “1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa,” whose white paper back in 2008 set bitcoin in motion.

This method means it won’t raise any new money, similar to approaches used by Palantir Technologies,Slack Technologies and Spotify Technology in recent years.\nHere’s what to know about the popular trading platform ahead of its public offering.\nWhat is Coinbase?\nThe Silicon Valley crypto exchange was co-founded in 2012 by Brian Armstrong, 38, who runs the platform chief executive. Fred Ehrsam, a Coinbase director, also helped to create the company.\nThere are two class of Coinbase shares. Armstrong owns 11% of the Class A shares and 22% of the Class B shares, while Ehrsam owns 11.4% of the Class A and 9% of the Class B.\nAccording to Forbes, Armstrong’s networth is currently $6.5 billion based on his ownership in the company, which is likely to increase if the direct listing goes off successfully.\nCoinbase bills itself as a bet on the rapidly growing cryptoeconomy, which starts with the No. 1 crypto asset bitcoin but goes well beyond that, Armstrong and company argue.\nCOINBASE S-1\nBitcoin prices have gained attention as it has soared to repeated records, most recently touching a recent peak above $58,000 over the weekend before beginning to give up some gains in recent trade.\nLast week, bitcoin hit a market value of $1 trillion and even though the asset created by a person or persons known as Satoshi Nakamoto represents about 70% of the total crypto market, there are still a number of other popular crypto assets trading on Coinbase, including ether on Ethereum’s blockchain, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin,to name a few.\nWho else owns Coinbase?\nVenture-capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, is the largest owner of Coinbase, boasting about 25% of Class A shares and14% of Class B. And Marc Andreessen, head of the venture capital outfit, sits on Coinbase’s board.\nCoinbase has an ambitions echo those of Robinhood Markets\n“Coinbase is company with an ambitious vision: to create more economic freedom for every person and business,” Armstrong wrote in a letter appended to the company’s public-filing paperwork with the SEC.\nBiggest risk factor\nNo doubt the biggest risk factor in Coinbase is that it is a bet on an unproven asset class that was created just over a decade ago. Coinbase attempts to make it clear that its fate is linked to the prospects for Bitcoin and ethereum and the thousands of other alternative coins that have been written into existence.\nBut a decline in interest and tough regulations in the U.S. and elsewhere could wallop the exchange platform.\nHere’s now Coinbase explains it:\n“There is no assurance that any supported crypto asset will maintain its value or that there will be meaningful levels of trading activities. In the event that the price of crypto assets or the demand for trading crypto assets decline, our business, operating results, and financial condition would be adversely affected. A majority of our net revenue is from transactions in Bitcoin and ethereum. If demand for these crypto assets declines and is not replaced by new demand for crypto assets, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected,” Coinbase writes in its S-1 filing.\nHow large is Coinbase?\nThe crypto exchange platform ranks No. 3 among the largest digital asset exchanges in the world, according to data site CoinMarketCap.com. That ranking puts it behind Binance, based in Seattle and Huobi Global, a Seychelles-based cryptocurrency exchange that was founded in China.\nCOINMARKETCAP.COM\nIn the U.S. Coinbase is by far the most well-known crypto platform but there are competitors, including Gemini, run by Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, who famously used their Facebook Inc. settlements to invest in bitcoins.\nKraken is another popular crypto platform and direct competitor in the U.S.\nOdds & Ends\nThe company in its public filing offered a number of homages to the founder or founders of bitcoin and the digital currency age in its submission.\nFor example, it listed the genesis block associated with Satoshi Nakamoto at “1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa,” whose white paper back in 2008 set bitcoin in motion. (Additionally, a “Satoshi” is the smallest unit of bitcoin—0.00000001 BTC).\nThe company offers no physical address for its headquarters in California, citing the COVID-19 pandemic, which has forced a number of companies to have most, if not all, of its staffers work remotely. For that reason, Coinbase refers to itself as “a remote-first company.”\nHowever, having no address to some was viewed as aligning with the decentralized nature of blockchain and bitcoins.\nThe company also offered a handy primer on cryptocurrency terms, including defining terms like “hodl,” which have become popular in crypto circles. Hodl was accidentally coined in a 2013 Reddit and means long-term holder of an investment.\nSEC\nArmstrong crypto charity\nBack in 2018, Armstrong kicked off GiveCrypto.org, which makes direct cash transfers to people living in poverty.\n“People who invested early in crypto have amassed an enormous amount of wealth in a relatively short amount of time. Yet the reputation of the crypto community has been dominated by images of ‘bros in Lambos,’ whose antics get a lot of attention,”wrote Armstrong in a separate blog post on Mediumin 2018.\nArmstrong has reportedly donated at least $1 million to GiveCrypto.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":251,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":363815109,"gmtCreate":1614124758701,"gmtModify":1704888380290,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Bull Run all the way.

Adam said that when core inflation runs between 1% and 3%, the average performance relative to the S&P 500 on a year-over-year basis has been strongest for the technology (+6.8%), healthcare (+2.3%) and consumer discretionary sectors (+2%).","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":253,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":363815052,"gmtCreate":1614124729876,"gmtModify":1704888379482,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy on dipped.&nbsp;","listText":"Buy on dipped.&nbsp;","text":"Buy on dipped.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/363815052","repostId":"1198320495","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":148,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":360635968,"gmtCreate":1613900164354,"gmtModify":1704885799394,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy or Sell???","listText":"Buy or Sell???","text":"Buy or Sell???","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9667eb41aefe0f06624adb52c77cbfee","width":"1125","height":"3020"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/360635968","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":165,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":385695722,"gmtCreate":1613539379466,"gmtModify":1704881782319,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sell PUtS","listText":"Sell PUtS","text":"Sell PUtS","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9b8678b7ff9b9bfd3908cb833f64241f","width":"1125","height":"2230"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/385695722","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":261,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":385695483,"gmtCreate":1613539326842,"gmtModify":1704881782158,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"that only applies in US.&nbsp;","listText":"that only applies in US.&nbsp;","text":"that only applies in US.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/385695483","repostId":"1121312034","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":79,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":385695862,"gmtCreate":1613539296056,"gmtModify":1704881785090,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hopefully they get a reputable and long lasting onewith less issues.&nbsp;","listText":"Hopefully they get a reputable and long lasting onewith less issues.&nbsp;","text":"Hopefully they get a reputable and long lasting onewith less issues.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/385695862","repostId":"1106575642","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1106575642","pubTimestamp":1613532872,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1106575642?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-17 11:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple iCar Speculation Continues.

And for Baidu, it marks a further effort to diversify its business well beyond advertising.\nBaidu’s Nasdaq-traded shares jumped more than 3.5% after hours. They climbed 6.67% on Tuesday.\nBaidu’s chip company would be a subsidiary, with the search giant likely to be the majority shareholder, the person said. Venture capital firms GGV and IDG Capital are involved in early stage discussions to invest in Baidu’s chip firm, the source added. Both firms have extensive investments in China.\nBaidu declined to comment when contacted by CNBC. IDG Capital was not immediately available for comment.Calls to GGV’s offices in Singapore, Shanghai and Beijing went unanswered.\nCurrently, Baidu has an in-house chip unit that has helped to develop its Kunlun semiconductors, designed to process huge amounts of data for artificial intelligence applications. But a standalone chip company is seen helping Baidu to better commercialize its technology, the source said.\nThe semiconductor business would aim to sell chips to customers in several industries including automakers, which are currently facing a global chip shortage.\nA standalone chip maker could also tie into other parts of Baidu’s businesses, such as its driverless car software.\nDiversification flurry\nBaidu’s move is part of push by the company to diversify its broader business — an effort which since September alone has seen the Chinese technology giant raise money for a biotech firm and a standalone electric vehicle company.\nAdvertising accounts for most of Baidu’s revenue currently, but other operations are contributing a growing percentage of sales. Ad-related revenue, which the company refers to in its earnings statements as online marketing services, accounted for around 80% of total revenue in 2018. That proportion fell to 71% in the third quarter of 2020, the most recent published results.\nBaidu’s semiconductor focus comes as the Chinese government tries to boost domestic independence around that critical technology — a trend that has accelerated during China’s trade war with the United States.\nChinese internet giant Tencent, the owner of messaging app WeChat,recently invested in an AI chip start-up.\nIn 2019, e-commerce company Alibaba launched its first chip to power artificial intelligence processes.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":42,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":305627020,"gmtCreate":1604970673360,"gmtModify":1704958394499,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MRNA\">$Moderna, Inc.(MRNA)$</a>Moderna has been on my watchlist since 2 monthsago.

It now ranks as the country’s second-largest publicly held company, trailing onlySamsung Electronics.It was the biggest U.S. initial public offering by a foreign issuer sinceAlibaba Group Holdingin 2014, and the biggest U.S. new issue of any kind sinceUber Technologiesin 2019.</p>\n<p>Founded in 2010 by Harvard Business School dropout Bom Kim, Coupang has become a huge force in the South Korean economy. The company accounts for 4% of the country’s consumer commerce, with a broad array of online retailing services: ThinkAmazon.com<i>plus</i>Instacart,DoorDash,andNetflix.Coupang has about 50,000 employees and expects to hire another 50,000 Koreans by 2025.</p>\n<p>Coupang may be like Amazon, but it has important geographical advantages. South Korea is a tech-savvy, superdense, highly populated country of more than 50 million people. Eric Kim, who sat on the Coupang board from 2011 to 2017 while a managing director at Maverick Capital, an investor in the company, notes that South Korea has about the same land mass as Indiana—but almost 10 times the population. Take out the uninhabitable mountain regions, he adds, and all of those people are jammed into an area the size of Rhode Island.</p>\n<p>That high density helps make Coupang superresponsive. The company has 25 million square feet of warehouse space, spread over 100 locations in more than 30 cities. Coupang says that 70% of Koreans live within seven miles of one of its distribution centers. Almost anything can be ordered same-day, and “dawn delivery” assures that goods ordered by midnight are delivered by 7 a.m.</p>\n<p>Coupang has also eliminated the need for cardboard boxes and bubble wrap for 75% of deliveries. (Let’s see you do that, Amazon.) Coupang Fresh, the company’s market-leading online grocery service, ships goods in reusable containers—leave them by the door and they are whisked away by one of Coupang’s 15,000 delivery staff members for reuse. Returning goods? Leave them outside your door—no special packaging or printed label required.</p>\n<p>Coupang had 2020 revenue of $12 billion, up 91% from the previous year, as the pandemic helped accelerate growth from 55% in 2019 and 69% in 2018. Growth was above 90% in each of the past four quarters.</p>\n<p>While not profitable yet, the company is getting close. Coupang’s profit margin, as measured by adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, was minus 2.1% last year, versus minus 8.8% the previous year. And that reflects some unusual costs to protect workers from the pandemic.</p>\n<p>In the IPO, Coupang sold 130 million shares at $35 apiece. The stock opened for trading at $63.50, giving the company a $114 billion market cap. The stock then drifted lower, closing on Thursday at just under $50 a share, for a valuation just shy of $90 billion.</p>\n<p>Coupang shares aren’t cheap—eBay(EBAY) has comparable revenue and less than half the market cap. And the stock trades at a slight premium to Alibaba (BABA) based on trailing 12-months sales. But Coupang has some distinct advantages. Alibaba faces fierce competition from companies like Pinduoduo andJD.com.Alibaba’s growth rate is less than half that of Coupang. And Coupang doesn’t have the Chinese Communist Party looking over its shoulder.</p>\n<p>One thing that Alibaba and Coupang have in common is a tight relationship withSoftBank Group(SFTBY)—the Japanese holding company is the largest investor in both companies.</p>\n<p>SoftBank invested $700 million in Coupang in 2015. In 2018, the SoftBank Vision Fund, the company’s $100 billion venture portfolio founded in 2016, invested another $2 billion in a deal led by Lydia Jett, a Vision Fund executive who now sits on the Coupang board. The original investment was rolled into the Vision Fund, for a total bet of $2.7 billion. That stake is now worth $30 billion. It’s a monster win—and possibly the biggest exit ever for a deal led by a woman venture investor.</p>\n<p>SoftBank did not sell any shares in the offering, and Jett says in an interview with<i>Barron’s</i>that the company intends to be a long-term investor, as it has been with Alibaba. More than 20 years after its initial investment, SoftBank’s remains the single largest holder in Alibaba.</p>\n<p>“We’re set up to hold Coupang for the long term,” Jett says. “There is a lot of room left in what is a $500 billion retail market.”</p>\n<p>It seems odd that South Korea, one of the world’s most technologically advanced nations, has played such a small role in the U.S. stock market. Coupang was the first Korean tech company to go public here in more than a decade. Jay Ritter, a University of Florida business school professor who studies the IPO market, says just six Korean tech firms have gone public in the U.S. market, all from 1999 to 2006. That list actually includes Gmarket, an e-commerce company that went public in 2006 and was acquired by eBay for $1.2 billion in 2009. EBay has announced that it is seeking a buyer for its Korean business. None of the best-known Korean tech and manufacturing companies—Samsung,LG,Hyundai Motor,Kia,SK Hynix—have U.S. listings.</p>\n<p>Jett thinks the Coupang deal will be a turning point for Korea’s venture capital market. She says there has been a misconception that Korean tech companies weren’t innovative enough. “That door has now been blown off,” she says. “This will transform how Korean companies are funded. This is just the beginning.”</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","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>Coupang Is the Amazon.com of South Korea, but Maybe Even Better.

It's why, even though we are enjoying a beautiful spring week, Goldman notes that single stock options trading activity is elevated relative to historical levels. To wit, daily options volumes are up 70% in April, up from YTD lows of $2.4bn on 30-Mar.</p><p><b>In total, across single stocks, $544BN of options are set to expiry today, including $305BN calls.</b>As such, today’s expiry could be important for stocks with large open interest in at-the-money(ATM) options, as market makers delta-hedging their unusually large options portfolios will be active. This flow is likely to dampen volatility in some names while exacerbating stock price moves in others.</p><p>How to trade this?</p><p>As Goldman's Vishal Vivek writes, at major expirations, options traders track situations where<b>a large amount of open interest is set to expire.</b>In situations where there is a significant amount of expiring open interest in at-the-money strikes (strike prices at or very near the current stockprice), delta-hedging activity can impact the underlying stock’s trading that day. If market makers or other options traders who delta-hedge their positions are net long ATM options, expiration-related flow could have the effect of dampening stock price movements, causing the stock price to settle near the strike with large open interest. This situation is often referred to as a “pin” and can be an ideal situation fora large investor trying to enter/exit a stock position. Alternatively, if delta-hedgers are net short ATM options (have a “negative gamma” position), their hedging activity could exacerbate stock price moves.</p><p>What that means it expiration-related trades may cause trading activity to aggressively pick up for stocks with a significant amount of ATM open interest.</p><p>So to help traders looking to hop on for daytrading opportunities, here is a table identifying possible focus stocks with large ATM open interest expiring today, which is compared to the average daily volume of the underlying stocks. As Goldman puts it, \"<i>expiration-related activity is likely to have more of an impact if the open interest represents a significant percentage of the stock’s volume.\"</i></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0dac61cb87c2f2700d8a0e8e64324f81\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"638\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Finally, for what it's worth, this morning our friends at SpotGamma write that this has been a rather strange OPEX cycle, \"with a consistent almost mechanical bid pushing markets higher. We’ve not seen the Call Wall “breached” this many times before, but there are other aberrations that we’ve mentioned in previous notes – like net put sales. We’ve got some theories on this we are posting in a longer form piece.\"</p><p>According to SG, because implied volatility has now compressed (ie VIX at new lows) there is now more potential for “long term” volatility. Recall how as of late any sharp, violent drop in markets was bought so quickly (see chart below).<b>These bursts lower coincided with record VIX spikes, but a reflective snap-back bid would bring a market recovery of equal force as the VIX&nbsp; (i.e. implied volatility) reversed.</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae7a60d873792b825bdda669cafa0ed3\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"297\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">And one other curious observation from SpotGamma:</p><blockquote>When implied volatility is very high, its very sensitive to market moves and also signaling that markets are expecting more large moves ahead. As soon as markets would pause or catch a support level, that implied volatility would quickly reverse lower. <b>We often think of this analogy that if a shark stops swimming, it sinks ( partially true!). If the market stops dropping then Implied volatility sinks.</b></blockquote><p>With this, as we often talk about, lower implied volatility (ie lower VIX) signals market makers have to buy back short hedges which fuels rallies. SG's conclusion: this current level of lower implied volatility now gives the market more downside firepower.&nbsp; Starting with a lower implied volatility “slows down” that responsive “snap-back” buying mechanism.&nbsp; Additionally, gamma is higher when IV is lower so gamma flips may have more juice.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>$544 Billion In Options Expire Today: Here's What Will Move</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;

It's why, even though we are enjoying a beautiful spring week, Goldman notes that single stock options trading activity is elevated relative to historical levels. To wit, daily options volumes are up 70% in April, up from YTD lows of $2.4bn on 30-Mar.In total, across single stocks, $544BN of options are set to expiry today, including $305BN calls.As such, today’s expiry could be important for stocks with large open interest in at-the-money(ATM) options, as market makers delta-hedging their unusually large options portfolios will be active. This flow is likely to dampen volatility in some names while exacerbating stock price moves in others.How to trade this?As Goldman's Vishal Vivek writes, at major expirations, options traders track situations wherea large amount of open interest is set to expire.In situations where there is a significant amount of expiring open interest in at-the-money strikes (strike prices at or very near the current stockprice), delta-hedging activity can impact the underlying stock’s trading that day. If market makers or other options traders who delta-hedge their positions are net long ATM options, expiration-related flow could have the effect of dampening stock price movements, causing the stock price to settle near the strike with large open interest. This situation is often referred to as a “pin” and can be an ideal situation fora large investor trying to enter/exit a stock position. Alternatively, if delta-hedgers are net short ATM options (have a “negative gamma” position), their hedging activity could exacerbate stock price moves.What that means it expiration-related trades may cause trading activity to aggressively pick up for stocks with a significant amount of ATM open interest.So to help traders looking to hop on for daytrading opportunities, here is a table identifying possible focus stocks with large ATM open interest expiring today, which is compared to the average daily volume of the underlying stocks. As Goldman puts it, \"expiration-related activity is likely to have more of an impact if the open interest represents a significant percentage of the stock’s volume.\"Finally, for what it's worth, this morning our friends at SpotGamma write that this has been a rather strange OPEX cycle, \"with a consistent almost mechanical bid pushing markets higher. We’ve not seen the Call Wall “breached” this many times before, but there are other aberrations that we’ve mentioned in previous notes – like net put sales. We’ve got some theories on this we are posting in a longer form piece.\"According to SG, because implied volatility has now compressed (ie VIX at new lows) there is now more potential for “long term” volatility. Recall how as of late any sharp, violent drop in markets was bought so quickly (see chart below).These bursts lower coincided with record VIX spikes, but a reflective snap-back bid would bring a market recovery of equal force as the VIX  (i.e. implied volatility) reversed.And one other curious observation from SpotGamma:When implied volatility is very high, its very sensitive to market moves and also signaling that markets are expecting more large moves ahead. As soon as markets would pause or catch a support level, that implied volatility would quickly reverse lower. We often think of this analogy that if a shark stops swimming, it sinks ( partially true!). If the market stops dropping then Implied volatility sinks.With this, as we often talk about, lower implied volatility (ie lower VIX) signals market makers have to buy back short hedges which fuels rallies. SG's conclusion: this current level of lower implied volatility now gives the market more downside firepower.  Starting with a lower implied volatility “slows down” that responsive “snap-back” buying mechanism.  Additionally, gamma is higher when IV is lower so gamma flips may have more juice.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":449,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":357186506,"gmtCreate":1617246597705,"gmtModify":1704697763961,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Shall wait and see for now… anot much hype thesefew days.&nbsp;","listText":"Shall wait and see for now… anot much hype thesefew days.&nbsp;","text":"Shall wait and see for now… anot much hype thesefew days.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/357186506","repostId":"2124208563","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":618,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":306489021,"gmtCreate":1604449514663,"gmtModify":1704956155034,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FSLY\">$Fastly, Inc.(FSLY)$</a>At the lowest demand zone.

We get 70% of the population vaccinated, then all the fundamentals are there for good, strong growth that we left back in January, February of 2020,” he said. “We’ve still got room to catch up to where we were. We’re making up for lost ground.”‘No reason to be pulling the plug’The economy officially entered recession in February 2020, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research, which makes the official call on contractions and expansions. While the U.S. is poised for another quarter of strong growth, gross domestic product is still running a bit below where it was prior to the Covid-19 onset.That’s part of the reason Waller concurs with his fellow central bankers in seeingthe need to keep policy loose. The Fed is currently holding short-term borrowing rates near zero while it purchases at least $120 billion of bonds each month.In a major policy shift last year, the Fed pledged that it will not raise rates until it sees full and inclusive employment, and is willing to tolerate inflation a bit above the traditional 2% target until it gets there. Fed officials have expressed concern about the uneven nature of the recovery, particularly regarding those at the lower end of the income spectrum.“We’ve got to make that up first,” Waller said. “Other parts of the economy seem to have really come back. We still have relatively high unemployment rates, particularly for minorities, and so we’ve still got a long way to go. There’s no reason to be pulling the plug on our support till we’re really through this.”Waller added that he thinks inflationary pressures that have begun to show up are likely temporary, a view widely held at the Fed. The consumer price index rose 2.6% in March from a year ago.Waller said he expects the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge based on personal consumption expenditures could run around 2.5% for 2021.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":345,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":388083662,"gmtCreate":1613001844956,"gmtModify":1704877212546,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JD\">$JD.com(JD)$</a>Up Up Up","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JD\">$JD.com(JD)$</a>Up Up Up","text":"$JD.com(JD)$Up Up Up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/388083662","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":52,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":976421881,"gmtCreate":1599823389743,"gmtModify":1705062838655,"author":{"id":"3555122349795736","authorId":"3555122349795736","name":"klchua78","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2caa379c29ceb64315cbdd5c456bef0c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3555122349795736","authorIdStr":"3555122349795736"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"100% win rate for MES","listText":"100% win rate for MES","text":"100% win rate for MES","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/101a88839d749591de7439d30d03b276","width":"1658","height":"2158"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/976421881","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":68,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3527667803686145","authorId":"3527667803686145","name":"社区成长助手","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2b7c7106b5c0c8b0037faa67439d898f","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3527667803686145","authorIdStr":"3527667803686145"},"content":"Finally, when your initial post [Bixin] [Bixin] comes, I hope you can have a good time and earn a good time in Tiger Community!

No Material Impact on Daily Operations Expected\nCompany Continues to Meet Trade Obligations in the Ordinary Course of Business, Including Paying Suppliers, Vendors and Employees\nBEIJING, Feb. 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Joint Provisional Liquidators (the “JPLs”) of Luckin Coffee Inc. (the “Company”) (OTC:LKNCY), Alexander Lawson of Alvarez & Marsal Cayman Islands Limited and Wing Sze Tiffany Wong of Alvarez & Marsal Asia Limited, today filed a verified petition under chapter 15 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Chapter 15 Petition”) with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “U.S. Bankruptcy Court”). The Chapter 15 Petition seeks, among other things, recognition in the United States of the Company’s provisional liquidation pending before the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands (the “Cayman Court”), Financial Services Division, Cause No. 157 of 2020 (ASCJ) (the “Cayman Proceeding”)1and related relief.\nThe Company is negotiating with its stakeholders regarding the restructuring of the Company’s financial obligations, to strengthen the Company’s balance sheet and enable it to emerge from the Cayman Proceeding as a going concern, for the benefit of all stakeholders. The relief sought in the Chapter 15 Petition is an important component of the Company’s restructuring. This relief will promote centralized administration of the Company’s assets by permitting coordination between the Cayman Court and the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, to protect the interests of stakeholders while facilitating the Company’s restructuring.\nAll Company stores remain open for business, offering products with high quality, affordability and convenience to its customers in China. The filing of the Chapter 15 Petition is not expected to materially impact the Company’s day-to-day operations. The Company continues to meet its trade obligations in the ordinary course of business, including paying suppliers, vendors and employees.\n______\n1The Company previously disclosed the commencement of the Cayman Proceeding on July 15, 2020.\nSafe Harbor Statement\nThis announcement contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
