That left too little cushion against deflation and the need for zero interest rates.In the meantime, the unemployment rate has risen from 3.5% to 4.2% (the Fed expects it to edge up next year), and private-sector job growth has fallen to just under 100,000 a month, half the pace of a year earlier. This is not, though, because falling demand has led to layoffs, which so far remain low. Instead, firms have applied the brakes to hiring.In fact, job growth and unemployment are close to what the Congressional Budget Office estimates ought to prevail in an economy at full employment and growing at its long-run potential rate. Indeed, Powell was careful to note that the job market is \"actually in solid condition. And our intention with our policy move today is to keep it there.\"While the Fed has only a vague idea of what an interest rate in normal times (dubbed \"neutral\") should be, it's sure the number is far below 5.25%. By cutting by half a point Wednesday, the Fed implicitly admitted rates have a way to go, and it was a bit late getting started. \"We don't think we're behind. But I think you can take this as a sign of our commitment not to get behind,\" Powell said.A return to the prepandemic era, when the Fed's interest-rate target was usually around zero and never above 2.5%, isn't in the cards. Those rates were anomalously low, reflecting a world of persistent deflationary pressure, subdued investment, and risk aversion.The outlook today is for more upward pressure on inflation amid reversing globalization, shrinking labor forces, and the costly transition to net zero carbon emissions. Structurally larger government deficits will add upward pressure to interest rates. Looking out a decade, markets think a neutral interest rate will be 3.25% to 3.5%.Yet as of Wednesday, 10-year yields were only a little higher, at 3.7%. In part, that reflected some investors betting that a recession would force the Fed to cut interest rates steeply again, if not quite to zero.As confidence grows that the Fed has stuck the soft landing, long-term rates might rise, until they are above the Fed's rate target. Indeed, bond yields ended Wednesday slightly higher.A world of higher bond yields will be a bitter pill for investors whose stockholdings have been buoyed by cheap money, or home buyers wondering why they can't have the 3% to 4% mortgage rates of a decade ago. And yet this would be one more sign that the world has truly returned to normal.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":62,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":343885894140248,"gmtCreate":1724986116499,"gmtModify":1724986347274,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Kamala has been flip flopping yet she said her values remain unchanged.

Their next meeting is July 30-31. Markets are focused on whether officials at that meeting might provide stronger hints that they could cut rates at their subsequent gathering in September.</p><p>Fed officials are trying to balance two risks. One is that they move too slowly to ease policy and the economy crumples under the weight of higher interest rates, sending unemployment up sharply. The other is that lower rates ignite economic activity and allow inflation to settle out above their goal.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Inflation fell to 2.6% in May, according to the Fed’s preferred gauge, down from 4% one year earlier but still above the Fed’s 2% target.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The economy has continued to add more than 200,000 jobs a month, on average, this year. But the unemployment rate has inched up—to 4.1% in June from 3.7% in December—as an increase in the number of people looking for work has led to somewhat longer spells of joblessness.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The Fed raised rates at the fastest pace in 40 years in 2022 and 2023 to combat inflation that also rose to a four-decade high.

Single-family home rents rose 14% in 2022, according to CoreLogic. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">But year-over-year rent growth slowed to 3.4% in February, reflecting increased competition from new apartment supply and tepid inflation-adjusted income growth. Apartment rents have notched similar declines, according to Zillow.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Because only a minority of leases turn over each year, changes in market rents are reflected in inflation with a lag. Accounting for that lag, Fed officials, Wall Street investors, and private-sector economists have expected housing inflation to slow since late 2022 based on what has already happened with market rents.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Housing inflation has indeed slowed from a peak of 8.2% one year ago—but only to 5.6% in March, “a much slower pace than pretty much anybody anticipated,” said Jay Parsons, head of residential strategy at Madera Residential, a Texas-based apartment owner. The Labor Department is scheduled to report April inflation on Wednesday.</p><h3 id=\"id_4164878001\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Deconstructing inflation</h3><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Housing helps explain why core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, has stalled in recent months, contrary to expectations of a continued cooling. Core PCE inflation <u>was 2.8% in March</u>, down from 5.6% in 2022 but not much lower than in December.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Housing “has not behaved the way we thought it would,” Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee said in an interview last month. “I still think it will, but if it doesn’t, we’re going to have a hard time” bringing inflation back to 2%.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">To understand why, break core inflation into three different baskets: goods, housing and nonhousing services. To get all the way to 2% inflation, the Fed doesn’t need 2% for all those categories.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/f363b9f7cc0282d38eb2fe0e1b51c555\" tg-width=\"622\" tg-height=\"518\"/></p><p>In the decade before the pandemic, core inflation was slightly below 2%, the result of inflation in goods running at about minus 1%, housing at 2.5% to 3.5%, and nonhousing services at slightly above 2%.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Much of last year’s slowdown in inflation was because goods prices returned to their prepandemic trend. For inflation to get back to 2%, nonhousing services inflation has to drop to less than 3% from 3.5% now, and housing to around 3.5% from 5.8%. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">If inflation stays higher, Fed officials are likely to hold interest rates at their current levels, the highest in two decades, until they see more concrete evidence that the economy is slowing.</p><h3 id=\"id_2988559281\" style=\"text-align: start;\">The ‘last lag’ or the last mile?</h3><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Many economists still think it’s only a matter of time before housing inflation reflects the slowdown in new leases that began two years ago. It might be taking longer than expected because more renters are renewing their leases instead of buying a home, deterred by high mortgage rates. That could lengthen the time it takes for lower rents from newly signed leases to show up in overall inflation. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"> “I still think that check is in the mail, but unfortunately, it’s taking longer for that check to arrive than I anticipated,” said David Wilcox, an economist at Bloomberg Economics and the Peterson Institute for International Economics. “I just don’t see an alternative outcome other than those low lease rates eventually manifest themselves in the official price indexes.”</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/b19a92add2488c7245fc5bb6d6fc2dd1\" tg-width=\"645\" tg-height=\"520\"/></p><p>Stalled inflation has fanned fears the Fed might have to weaken the labor market, risking recession, to finish the “last mile” of bringing down inflation. But that might not be necessary if prices, such as for housing, reflect economic conditions from a few years ago rather than now. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Higher car-insurance costs or hospital-service prices, for example, reflect big increases in auto prices and hospital wages two years ago, respectively, said Omair Sharif, founder of research firm Inflation Insights. “It’s the ‘last lag’ story, not the ‘last mile’ story,” he said.</p><h3 id=\"id_1541851143\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Demand tailwinds</h3><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Some doubt whether housing will help as much as anticipated in bringing inflation down. Rents tend to be sensitive to wages and income, and as long as those expand solidly, rents might not slow as much.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">A key reason market rents have moderated is that the industry is adding a record amount of new apartment supply. Some industry executives say, though, that that supply is being quickly absorbed because of increased immigration and solid job and wage growth.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">“One of the surprises of the last six months, specific to multifamily, has been the reacceleration of demand,” Parsons said. </p><p>At Camden Property Trust, a Houston-based owner of 58,000 apartment homes, the share of tenants moving out to buy homes has fallen to 9%, the lowest in the company’s three-decade history and down from a traditional move-out rate of 15% to 18%.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">To be sure, rent growth at Camden, which fell to 3% last year from a record 13% in 2022, is expected to be less than 1% this year.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">“Most folks believed you would have had a massive falloff in rental growth throughout the Sunbelt,” said Ric Campo, chief executive of Camden. “But what’s happening is there’s been just a whole lot more demand than most people expected.”</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Stubbornly High Rents Prevent Fed From Finishing Inflation Fight</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nStubbornly High Rents Prevent Fed From Finishing Inflation Fight\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2024-05-12 18:17</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p>By Nick Timiraos</p><p>Stalled inflation this year hasn’t derailed the Federal Reserve’s plans to eventually cut interest rates.

That’s because it expects a slowdown in housing costs to eventually drag inflation close to its 2% target.The problem: It has been waiting for that slowdown for 1½ years now, and it still hasn’t arrived. The slowdown might simply be delayed. But some analysts worry it’s not going to happen because of changing dynamics in the housing market. If so, that would significantly weaken the case for lower rates.Housing has played a large role in the inflation of recent years because its cost rose so much and carries such large weight. It is one-third of the consumer-price index and around one-sixth of the price index of personal-consumption expenditures, the Fed’s preferred inflation measure.It is also, in theory, predictable. Government statisticians don’t use home prices to calculate inflation because a home is partly an investment. Instead, they use monthly rents to capture what tenants pay to rent a house or apartment, and what a homeowner would in theory pay to rent her own home.Market rents—rents on newly signed leases—surged three years ago, reflecting the unusual demand for more space unleashed by the pandemic, strong income growth and historically low inventories of homes for rent or purchase. Single-family home rents rose 14% in 2022, according to CoreLogic. But year-over-year rent growth slowed to 3.4% in February, reflecting increased competition from new apartment supply and tepid inflation-adjusted income growth. Apartment rents have notched similar declines, according to Zillow.Because only a minority of leases turn over each year, changes in market rents are reflected in inflation with a lag. Accounting for that lag, Fed officials, Wall Street investors, and private-sector economists have expected housing inflation to slow since late 2022 based on what has already happened with market rents.Housing inflation has indeed slowed from a peak of 8.2% one year ago—but only to 5.6% in March, “a much slower pace than pretty much anybody anticipated,” said Jay Parsons, head of residential strategy at Madera Residential, a Texas-based apartment owner.

It is also forecast to report year-over-year earnings growth of 3.3% in the first quarter of 2024, said John Butters, senior earnings analyst at FactSet Research.If 3.3% is the actual growth rate for the three-month period ending March 31, it will mark the third consecutive quarter of year-over-year earnings growth for the S&P 500, Butters said in a Friday note.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":231,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":284583726633160,"gmtCreate":1710484535326,"gmtModify":1710486160843,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Joker write an article to urge government to stop cooling measure when most house are not sold due to the high prices set by developers and marketed by unscrupulous agents.

Smart Investor","summary":"A bright outlook for air travel and tourism could lift the fortunes of these four stocks.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>2023 has been a mixed year for the aviation and tourism industry.</p><p>On one hand, air travel has witnessed a surge in demand as economies reopened.</p><p>This pent-up demand resulted in “revenge spending” where people willingly opened their wallets after being cooped up for more than two years.</p><p>On the other hand, high inflation has been a headwind for consumer spending and has also increased expenses for aviation and tourism businesses.</p><p>Luckily, core inflation in Singapore appears to be trending down with the latest reading at 3.3% for October, significantly lower than the 5.5% registered in January.</p><p>We highlight four stocks within these industries that could see a better 2024.</p><h2 id=\"id_339437941\">Singapore Airlines Limited (SGX: C6L)</h2><p>Singapore Airlines Limited, or SIA, is Singapore’s flagship airline.</p><p>The blue-chip carrier reported a strong set of results for its fiscal 2024 first half (1H FY2024) ending 30 September 2023.</p><p>Total revenue rose 8.9% year on year to S$9.2 billion with operating profit jumping nearly 26% year on year to S$1.6 billion.</p><p>Net profit hit a record S$1.4 billion for 1H FY2024, up 55.4% year on year.</p><p>SIA also declared an interim dividend of S$0.10, similar to what was paid out a year ago.</p><p>There could be more in store for investors in the second half of FY2024 and FY2025.</p><p>The group has 96 aircraft on order and looks set to continually refresh its fleet, helping to maintain its reputation as one of the youngest and most fuel-efficient fleets in the industry.</p><p>The Singapore Tourism Board expects the sector to recover to pre-pandemic levels next year, which should see a further boost to the number of travellers, thereby benefitting SIA.</p><p>SIA’s capacity is slated to reach an average of around 92% by December 2023 and is poised to return to pre-COVID levels by FY2025.</p><p>The group has another catalyst in its multi-hub strategy where it merged with Vistara to increase its presence in key Indian airline market segments.</p><p>Elsewhere, SIA is also working to increase its codeshare agreements with other airlines to increase its network and cover more routes.</p><h2 id=\"id_2541156343\">Straco Corporation Limited (SGX: S85)</h2><p>Straco is an operator of tourism facilities and owns two aquariums in China – the Shanghai Ocean Aquarium (SOA) and Underwater World Xiamen (UWX).</p><p>In Singapore, the group owns the iconic Singapore Flyer.</p><p>Straco had to endure frequent closures for its China attractions over the last three years due to pandemic-related restrictions, resulting in the group booking a net loss for 2022.</p><p>The tourism operator just released its business update for 2023’s third quarter (3Q 2023).</p><p>Revenue more than tripled year on year to S$35.5 million as crowds returned to Straco’s attractions during China’s summer holidays.</p><p>Net profit soared from just S$175,000 in 3Q 2022 to S$16.3 million in the current quarter.</p><p>With full reopening in China and Singapore, investors can expect to see stronger numbers for 2024 as more tourists are expected to visit both countries.</p><h2 id=\"id_2095614462\">SIA Engineering Company (SGX: S59)</h2><p>SIA Engineering Company, or SIAEC, is a maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) specialist for airlines that also offers line maintenance services.</p><p>For 1H FY2024, SIAEC saw revenue jump 42% year on year to S$514 million.</p><p>The group’s share of profits from associates and joint ventures increased by 20.8% year on year with the aviation recovery.</p><p>As a result, net profit for the MRO specialist surged by 82.6% year on year to S$59.3 million.</p><p>An interim dividend of S$0.02 was also declared.</p><p>For its Line Maintenance division, SIAEC saw flight recovery at 89% of pre-pandemic levels, up 10 percentage points from a year ago.</p><p>With SIA projecting a full recovery by FY2025, SIA should also see its fortunes increase in tandem.</p><p>The group is gearing up for more growth with the establishment of regional hangars and the setting up of component capabilities in lower-cost countries.</p><p>Meanwhile, SIAEC will also deepen its collaboration with SIA to secure original equipment manufacturing (OEM) partnership capabilities and strengthen its sales and marketing team to acquire more long-term customers.</p><h2 id=\"id_1475985272\">SATS Ltd (SGX: S58)</h2><p>SATS provides gateway services to airlines and food solutions to airlines, restaurant chains, retailers, and institutions.</p><p>The group reported a robust set of earnings for 1H FY2024 and saw its revenue tripling year on year with the consolidation of its Worldwide Flight Services (WFS) acquisition.</p><p>Core net loss, however, came in at S$600,000 although this was a sharp improvement from the net loss of S$15.8 million in the prior year.</p><p>SATS is gearing up to manage higher cargo volumes and has added a new cargo terminal at Chicago O’Hare International Airport while investing in a fifth cargo terminal in Madrid.</p><p>Its recent collaboration with Kuehne+Nagel looks set to drive value chain improvement for air logistics customers.</p><p>The integration of SATS and WFS is also progressing well and more contributions should come in for 2H FY2024 and FY2025.</p></body></html>","source":"thesmartinvestor_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta

has been a mixed year for the aviation and tourism industry.On one hand, air travel has witnessed a surge in demand as economies reopened.This pent-up demand resulted in “revenge spending” where people willingly opened their wallets after being cooped up for more than two years.On the other hand, high inflation has been a headwind for consumer spending and has also increased expenses for aviation and tourism businesses.Luckily, core inflation in Singapore appears to be trending down with the latest reading at 3.3% for October, significantly lower than the 5.5% registered in January.We highlight four stocks within these industries that could see a better 2024.Singapore Airlines Limited (SGX: C6L)Singapore Airlines Limited, or SIA, is Singapore’s flagship airline.The blue-chip carrier reported a strong set of results for its fiscal 2024 first half (1H FY2024) ending 30 September 2023.Total revenue rose 8.9% year on year to S$9.2 billion with operating profit jumping nearly 26% year on year to S$1.6 billion.Net profit hit a record S$1.4 billion for 1H FY2024, up 55.4% year on year.SIA also declared an interim dividend of S$0.10, similar to what was paid out a year ago.There could be more in store for investors in the second half of FY2024 and FY2025.The group has 96 aircraft on order and looks set to continually refresh its fleet, helping to maintain its reputation as one of the youngest and most fuel-efficient fleets in the industry.The Singapore Tourism Board expects the sector to recover to pre-pandemic levels next year, which should see a further boost to the number of travellers, thereby benefitting SIA.SIA’s capacity is slated to reach an average of around 92% by December 2023 and is poised to return to pre-COVID levels by FY2025.The group has another catalyst in its multi-hub strategy where it merged with Vistara to increase its presence in key Indian airline market segments.Elsewhere, SIA is also working to increase its codeshare agreements with other airlines to increase its network and cover more routes.Straco Corporation Limited (SGX: S85)Straco is an operator of tourism facilities and owns two aquariums in China – the Shanghai Ocean Aquarium (SOA) and Underwater World Xiamen (UWX).In Singapore, the group owns the iconic Singapore Flyer.Straco had to endure frequent closures for its China attractions over the last three years due to pandemic-related restrictions, resulting in the group booking a net loss for 2022.The tourism operator just released its business update for 2023’s third quarter (3Q 2023).Revenue more than tripled year on year to S$35.5 million as crowds returned to Straco’s attractions during China’s summer holidays.Net profit soared from just S$175,000 in 3Q 2022 to S$16.3 million in the current quarter.With full reopening in China and Singapore, investors can expect to see stronger numbers for 2024 as more tourists are expected to visit both countries.SIA Engineering Company (SGX: S59)SIA Engineering Company, or SIAEC, is a maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) specialist for airlines that also offers line maintenance services.For 1H FY2024, SIAEC saw revenue jump 42% year on year to S$514 million.The group’s share of profits from associates and joint ventures increased by 20.8% year on year with the aviation recovery.As a result, net profit for the MRO specialist surged by 82.6% year on year to S$59.3 million.An interim dividend of S$0.02 was also declared.For its Line Maintenance division, SIAEC saw flight recovery at 89% of pre-pandemic levels, up 10 percentage points from a year ago.With SIA projecting a full recovery by FY2025, SIA should also see its fortunes increase in tandem.The group is gearing up for more growth with the establishment of regional hangars and the setting up of component capabilities in lower-cost countries.Meanwhile, SIAEC will also deepen its collaboration with SIA to secure original equipment manufacturing (OEM) partnership capabilities and strengthen its sales and marketing team to acquire more long-term customers.SATS Ltd (SGX: S58)SATS provides gateway services to airlines and food solutions to airlines, restaurant chains, retailers, and institutions.The group reported a robust set of earnings for 1H FY2024 and saw its revenue tripling year on year with the consolidation of its Worldwide Flight Services (WFS) acquisition.Core net loss, however, came in at S$600,000 although this was a sharp improvement from the net loss of S$15.8 million in the prior year.SATS is gearing up to manage higher cargo volumes and has added a new cargo terminal at Chicago O’Hare International Airport while investing in a fifth cargo terminal in Madrid.Its recent collaboration with Kuehne+Nagel looks set to drive value chain improvement for air logistics customers.The integration of SATS and WFS is also progressing well and more contributions should come in for 2H FY2024 and FY2025.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":242,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":226991937962080,"gmtCreate":1696491670310,"gmtModify":1696491674859,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sales

Meanwhile, furniture and household equipment (-1.3 per cent), recreational goods (-0.3 per cent) and optical goods and books (-2.2 per cent) were the exceptions to the growth trend.Sales of food and beverage services jumped 8.6 per cent on the year in August, more than the 6.6 per cent expansion in the preceding month. It was up by 2.8 per cent on a monthly seasonally adjusted basis.On the year, growth was recorded across all segments:Restaurants (5.3 per cent)Fast food outlets (7.8 per cent)Food caterers (29.8 per cent)Cafes, food courts and other eating places (7.7 per cent)On a seasonally adjusted monthly basis, all categories were up, with food caterers leading the sales growth at 3.7 per cent.Food and beverage services receipts amounted to S$1 billion, with online sales accounting for an estimated 23.1 per cent.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":246,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":227057327063080,"gmtCreate":1696491135459,"gmtModify":1696491263186,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Guess where did Huawei get their new chip?

This in my opinion destroys the negative narrative surrounding the geopolitical risks between Taiwan and China as the company becomes even more important globally.</p><h2 id=\"id_35727884\">Stronger Foothold Globally</h2><p>The company has been quite busy recently with strategic expansions, which will help it cement itself as the leader in the semiconductor industry. TSM is looking to build a chip plant in Germany for $10B, of which 70% of it will be owned by the company, while the remainder will go to Bosch, NXP Semiconductors (NXPI), and Infineon Technologies (OTCQX:IFNNY). The company is taking advantage of the European Chips Act to get a better foothold globally and deepen its relationship across the globe, which will signal to many that the company is here to stay. I believe other European countries may follow suit and decide to start a partnership with TSM through the European Chips Act.</p><h2 id=\"id_4089340491\">Arizona Plant Delays</h2><p>So, it&#39;s been a bumpy ride for TSM and the new plants in Arizona. The company announced delays due to not having enough skilled workers in the US to operate the factory, which meant that TSM had to send over highly skilled workers to train the US workers. This means that the plant got delayed by another full year. The news is considered negative; however, it is too myopic in my opinion as in the end, the company will have a stronger foothold internationally once the factories are up and running. In my opinion, this delay is warranted because TSM is a top-level producer of chips, so anything below their standards is not going to fly with their investors and their customers.</p><p>I believe that this is an opportune time to keep adding to a leader in the semiconductor industry, but because of such negativity surrounding the company, which includes geopolitical risks of China, and negative sentiment of the industry in general, we may see further declines in its stock price until everything turns around.</p><h2 id=\"id_1763238704\">Artificial Intelligence</h2><p>We know that the demand for AI chips and anything related to AI is blowing through the roof right now. TSM is not sitting still here, as I mentioned in my previous article, the company is expanding its capacity for AI in Taiwan, and with the return of the demand for advanced packaging, TSM is moving up the orders to fulfill it. The company is looking to more than double its wafer capacity by the end of the year. Furthermore, there is also the possibility that the company will add advanced packaging capacity to its Arizona plants, however, that is yet to be confirmed by the company. We don&#39;t know what capacity it would be, but I wouldn&#39;t be surprised if it&#39;s close to what the company can produce right now. Even if it&#39;s only half of what it can produce, it is still an addition to the company&#39;s revenues in this fast-growing AI chip segment.</p><h2 id=\"id_2117533128\">Geopolitics</h2><p>The above strategic moves the company is making tell me that the geopolitical risks are overplayed and have little merit in my opinion. The company, as I mentioned in another article in more detail, is even more important globally, which should deter China from doing anything drastic. The company continues to solidify its ties all around the world, with the most powerful countries like the US and Germany, and I&#39;m sure it is not going to stop there. Many other countries would gain from TSM&#39;s expertise in the field, which will benefit the company and the countries alike.</p><p>As mentioned in the article, China is still too dependent on international companies for semiconductor needs, even with its Made in China 2025 campaign. I do not understand why so many regard the geopolitical risks between the US and China to be such a huge deterrent from investing in what can only be described as THE semiconductor company, that has a huge head start on many companies that try to replicate its success.</p><h2 id=\"id_1501328540\">Risks</h2><p>I believe that most of the risks are too near-term focused because, in the long run, the company is a fantastic inclusion to anyone&#39;s portfolio.</p><p>If the US and China&#39;s worries go on for much longer, coupled with the negativity in the semiconductor sector, it will likely keep the stock price depressed and we will probably see further deterioration. I would view this as an opportunity to add to the long-term portfolio.</p><p>Besides the specific risks above, the macroeconomic outlook is continuing to be shaky, which affects the global stock markets in general.</p><p>The Arizona plant may be delayed for even longer, which will bring further negative sentiment to the company.</p><p>Quarterly reports for the next couple of quarters may not be very positive, which will bring further downward pressure, however, this has been communicated in the previous reports that the demand for semis is poor right now and that this should turn around sometime in early &#39;24.</p><h2 id=\"id_3350691265\">Key Takeaway</h2><p>All the above initiatives the company is taking further cement its vital role in the semiconductor industry and I do not see how this is going to change any time soon, especially since the company is not standing still and will no doubt continue to build on the relationships with other European countries and the US in the future.</p><p>The Arizona plant delay is only considered bad in the short term. In the long term, the highly skilled workforce will deliver fantastic results in the end and will be worth the wait in my opinion. Further expansion of the most demanded product production, the advanced packaging, will turn into substantial revenues for many years to come.

This in my opinion destroys the negative narrative surrounding the geopolitical risks between Taiwan and China as the company becomes even more important globally.Stronger Foothold GloballyThe company has been quite busy recently with strategic expansions, which will help it cement itself as the leader in the semiconductor industry. TSM is looking to build a chip plant in Germany for $10B, of which 70% of it will be owned by the company, while the remainder will go to Bosch, NXP Semiconductors (NXPI), and Infineon Technologies (OTCQX:IFNNY). The company is taking advantage of the European Chips Act to get a better foothold globally and deepen its relationship across the globe, which will signal to many that the company is here to stay. I believe other European countries may follow suit and decide to start a partnership with TSM through the European Chips Act.Arizona Plant DelaysSo, it's been a bumpy ride for TSM and the new plants in Arizona. The company announced delays due to not having enough skilled workers in the US to operate the factory, which meant that TSM had to send over highly skilled workers to train the US workers. This means that the plant got delayed by another full year. The news is considered negative; however, it is too myopic in my opinion as in the end, the company will have a stronger foothold internationally once the factories are up and running. In my opinion, this delay is warranted because TSM is a top-level producer of chips, so anything below their standards is not going to fly with their investors and their customers.I believe that this is an opportune time to keep adding to a leader in the semiconductor industry, but because of such negativity surrounding the company, which includes geopolitical risks of China, and negative sentiment of the industry in general, we may see further declines in its stock price until everything turns around.Artificial IntelligenceWe know that the demand for AI chips and anything related to AI is blowing through the roof right now. TSM is not sitting still here, as I mentioned in my previous article, the company is expanding its capacity for AI in Taiwan, and with the return of the demand for advanced packaging, TSM is moving up the orders to fulfill it. The company is looking to more than double its wafer capacity by the end of the year. Furthermore, there is also the possibility that the company will add advanced packaging capacity to its Arizona plants, however, that is yet to be confirmed by the company. We don't know what capacity it would be, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's close to what the company can produce right now. Even if it's only half of what it can produce, it is still an addition to the company's revenues in this fast-growing AI chip segment.GeopoliticsThe above strategic moves the company is making tell me that the geopolitical risks are overplayed and have little merit in my opinion. The company, as I mentioned in another article in more detail, is even more important globally, which should deter China from doing anything drastic. The company continues to solidify its ties all around the world, with the most powerful countries like the US and Germany, and I'm sure it is not going to stop there. Many other countries would gain from TSM's expertise in the field, which will benefit the company and the countries alike.As mentioned in the article, China is still too dependent on international companies for semiconductor needs, even with its Made in China 2025 campaign. I do not understand why so many regard the geopolitical risks between the US and China to be such a huge deterrent from investing in what can only be described as THE semiconductor company, that has a huge head start on many companies that try to replicate its success.RisksI believe that most of the risks are too near-term focused because, in the long run, the company is a fantastic inclusion to anyone's portfolio.If the US and China's worries go on for much longer, coupled with the negativity in the semiconductor sector, it will likely keep the stock price depressed and we will probably see further deterioration. I would view this as an opportunity to add to the long-term portfolio.Besides the specific risks above, the macroeconomic outlook is continuing to be shaky, which affects the global stock markets in general.The Arizona plant may be delayed for even longer, which will bring further negative sentiment to the company.Quarterly reports for the next couple of quarters may not be very positive, which will bring further downward pressure, however, this has been communicated in the previous reports that the demand for semis is poor right now and that this should turn around sometime in early '24.Key TakeawayAll the above initiatives the company is taking further cement its vital role in the semiconductor industry and I do not see how this is going to change any time soon, especially since the company is not standing still and will no doubt continue to build on the relationships with other European countries and the US in the future.The Arizona plant delay is only considered bad in the short term. In the long term, the highly skilled workforce will deliver fantastic results in the end and will be worth the wait in my opinion. Further expansion of the most demanded product production, the advanced packaging, will turn into substantial revenues for many years to come. All these efforts should dissipate the worries of China as the company becomes too big to brush off, as it had already dissipated those worries for me.I stand by my Strong Buy rating and will be looking to add some more to my existing position in the coming months as I believe there will be further price declines in the near term while the negativity and pessimism remain in the markets.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":293,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":219327010263168,"gmtCreate":1694572352787,"gmtModify":1694572358390,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"How much are these stocks&nbsp;during covid period or during recessions?

DBS Group (SGX: D05)</h2><p>DBS Group needs no introduction, being Singapore’s largest bank with a market capitalisation of around S$88 billion.</p><p>The lender has a sterling reputation here and is also 29.1% owned by Singapore’s Temasek Holdings.</p><p>The bank has cemented its reputation by coasting through the pandemic with record-high profits.</p><p>For 2021, the bank’s net profit shot up 44% year on year to S$6.8 billion and it increased its quarterly dividend from S$0.33 to S$0.36.</p><p>As the US Federal Reserve hiked interest rates aggressively last year, DBS saw its net profit climb another 20% year on year to hit S$8.2 billion in 2022.</p><p>The bank also raised its quarterly dividend to S$0.42 and declared a special dividend of S$0.50 last year, bringing its total 2022 dividend to S$2.00 per share.</p><p>Just recently, DBS Group has once again knocked the ball out of the park.</p><p>The bank’s fiscal 2023’s first half (1H 2023) net profit hit a record-high level of S$10 billion.</p><p>The lender gave an optimistic outlook for the remainder of 2023 and further raised its quarterly dividend to S$0.48, bringing its annualised dividend to S$1.92 per share.</p><p>DBS is headed by CEO Piyush Gupta, and can offer investors a great mix of stability, growth, and rising dividends for the foreseeable future.</p><h2 id=\"id_2688906769\">2. Singapore Exchange Limited (SGX: S68)</h2><p>Singapore Exchange Limited, or SGX, is Singapore’s sole stock exchange operator.</p><p>The group enjoys a natural monopoly by being the only bourse operator in Singapore.</p><p>Of late, SGX has morphed into being more than just a stock exchange; it is also advancing on its plan to become a multi-asset exchange offering a suite of products such as stocks, bonds, derivatives, currencies, and options for investors to construct and manage their investment portfolios.</p><p>The group reported a 4% year-on-year increase in revenue to S$1.1 billion for its fiscal 2022 (FY2022) ending 30 June 2022.</p><p>Net profit inched up 1% year on year to S$451 million.</p><p>Moving on, for the first half of FY2023 (1H FY2023), SGX’s revenue jumped 10% year on year to S$571 million while net profit climbed 30% year on year to S$285 million.</p><p>Annual dividends have been on the rise, going from S$0.26 in FY2009 to S$0.32 in FY2022.</p><p>SGX also saw rising daily average volume across equities, foreign exchange, and commodities for 1H FY2023.</p><p>What’s more, its over-the-counter foreign exchange business is on track to achieve an average daily volume of US$100 billion soon, with 1H FY2023 clocking up a volume of US$68 billion.</p><p>The bourse operator recently launched Singapore Depository Receipts in partnership with the Stock Exchange of Thailand, allowing Singapore investors to have access to three Thai-listed blue-chip stocks.</p><p>SGX has also inked a deal with NSE International Exchange for the full-scale trading operations for the NSE IX-SGX GIFT Connect, a first-of-its-kind financial corridor between Singapore and India.</p><p>These initiatives, along with the strong market position that SGX possesses, should enable the group to continue posting steady growth in profits and dividends in the coming years.</p><h2 id=\"id_1421678838\">3. Raffles Medical Group (SGX: BSL)</h2><p>Raffles Medical Group, or RMG, is an integrated healthcare player providing a comprehensive range of services spanning primary to tertiary care.</p><p>The group owns Raffles Hospital in Singapore and three hospitals in China along with over 100 multi-disciplinary clinics offering specialist care, dental services, and health screening.</p><p>The healthcare player enjoys a good reputation that has enabled it to thrive through the pandemic as it worked with the Singapore government to offer PCR tests and mass vaccinations.</p><p>Back in 2021, the group’s revenue improved by 27.4% year on year to S$723.8 million with net profit climbing 27.7% year on year to S$84.2 million.</p><p>In line with the good results, RMG raised its annual dividend from S$0.025 in 2020 to S$0.028 in 2021.</p><p>In 2022, RMG’s revenue rose 5.9% year on year to S$766.5 million while its net profit surged by 70.5% year on year to S$143.5 million.</p><p>Management hiked its annual dividend by 35.7% year on year to S$0.038.</p><p>For 1H 2023, RMG turned in a commendable performance with revenue dipping by 9.5% year on year as COVID-related revenue fell.</p><p>Despite this, net profit inched up 0.5% year on year to S$59.9 million while free cash flow remained healthy at S$120 million.</p><p>Chairman Dr Loo Choon Yong is seeing medical tourism recover to 70% of pre-pandemic levels and also plans to increase capacity in its current hospitals and beef up its team of specialists to serve more patients.</p><p>RMG is also not ruling out acquisitions to grow the business if there are compelling opportunities as the group seeks to tap on its cash hoard of S$299.6 million as of 30 June 2023.</p><p>With Singapore’s ageing population and the government’s launch of Healthier SG acting as catalysts for RMG, its long-term future looks assured.</p><h2 id=\"id_963792794\">Get Smart: Strong stocks to last a lifetime</h2><p>The above are three candidates for stocks you can own for a lifetime.</p><p>But as investors, you also need to keep an eye on the company’s performance and fundamentals.</p><p>Remember that investing is more than just about which stock to buy; you also need to know how much of each stock to buy.</p><p></p></body></html>","source":"thesmartinvestor_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

DBS Group (SGX: D05)DBS Group needs no introduction, being Singapore’s largest bank with a market capitalisation of around S$88 billion.The lender has a sterling reputation here and is also 29.1% owned by Singapore’s Temasek Holdings.The bank has cemented its reputation by coasting through the pandemic with record-high profits.For 2021, the bank’s net profit shot up 44% year on year to S$6.8 billion and it increased its quarterly dividend from S$0.33 to S$0.36.As the US Federal Reserve hiked interest rates aggressively last year, DBS saw its net profit climb another 20% year on year to hit S$8.2 billion in 2022.The bank also raised its quarterly dividend to S$0.42 and declared a special dividend of S$0.50 last year, bringing its total 2022 dividend to S$2.00 per share.Just recently, DBS Group has once again knocked the ball out of the park.The bank’s fiscal 2023’s first half (1H 2023) net profit hit a record-high level of S$10 billion.The lender gave an optimistic outlook for the remainder of 2023 and further raised its quarterly dividend to S$0.48, bringing its annualised dividend to S$1.92 per share.DBS is headed by CEO Piyush Gupta, and can offer investors a great mix of stability, growth, and rising dividends for the foreseeable future.2. Singapore Exchange Limited (SGX: S68)Singapore Exchange Limited, or SGX, is Singapore’s sole stock exchange operator.The group enjoys a natural monopoly by being the only bourse operator in Singapore.Of late, SGX has morphed into being more than just a stock exchange; it is also advancing on its plan to become a multi-asset exchange offering a suite of products such as stocks, bonds, derivatives, currencies, and options for investors to construct and manage their investment portfolios.The group reported a 4% year-on-year increase in revenue to S$1.1 billion for its fiscal 2022 (FY2022) ending 30 June 2022.Net profit inched up 1% year on year to S$451 million.Moving on, for the first half of FY2023 (1H FY2023), SGX’s revenue jumped 10% year on year to S$571 million while net profit climbed 30% year on year to S$285 million.Annual dividends have been on the rise, going from S$0.26 in FY2009 to S$0.32 in FY2022.SGX also saw rising daily average volume across equities, foreign exchange, and commodities for 1H FY2023.What’s more, its over-the-counter foreign exchange business is on track to achieve an average daily volume of US$100 billion soon, with 1H FY2023 clocking up a volume of US$68 billion.The bourse operator recently launched Singapore Depository Receipts in partnership with the Stock Exchange of Thailand, allowing Singapore investors to have access to three Thai-listed blue-chip stocks.SGX has also inked a deal with NSE International Exchange for the full-scale trading operations for the NSE IX-SGX GIFT Connect, a first-of-its-kind financial corridor between Singapore and India.These initiatives, along with the strong market position that SGX possesses, should enable the group to continue posting steady growth in profits and dividends in the coming years.3. Raffles Medical Group (SGX: BSL)Raffles Medical Group, or RMG, is an integrated healthcare player providing a comprehensive range of services spanning primary to tertiary care.The group owns Raffles Hospital in Singapore and three hospitals in China along with over 100 multi-disciplinary clinics offering specialist care, dental services, and health screening.The healthcare player enjoys a good reputation that has enabled it to thrive through the pandemic as it worked with the Singapore government to offer PCR tests and mass vaccinations.Back in 2021, the group’s revenue improved by 27.4% year on year to S$723.8 million with net profit climbing 27.7% year on year to S$84.2 million.In line with the good results, RMG raised its annual dividend from S$0.025 in 2020 to S$0.028 in 2021.In 2022, RMG’s revenue rose 5.9% year on year to S$766.5 million while its net profit surged by 70.5% year on year to S$143.5 million.Management hiked its annual dividend by 35.7% year on year to S$0.038.For 1H 2023, RMG turned in a commendable performance with revenue dipping by 9.5% year on year as COVID-related revenue fell.Despite this, net profit inched up 0.5% year on year to S$59.9 million while free cash flow remained healthy at S$120 million.Chairman Dr Loo Choon Yong is seeing medical tourism recover to 70% of pre-pandemic levels and also plans to increase capacity in its current hospitals and beef up its team of specialists to serve more patients.RMG is also not ruling out acquisitions to grow the business if there are compelling opportunities as the group seeks to tap on its cash hoard of S$299.6 million as of 30 June 2023.With Singapore’s ageing population and the government’s launch of Healthier SG acting as catalysts for RMG, its long-term future looks assured.Get Smart: Strong stocks to last a lifetimeThe above are three candidates for stocks you can own for a lifetime.But as investors, you also need to keep an eye on the company’s performance and fundamentals.Remember that investing is more than just about which stock to buy; you also need to know how much of each stock to buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":207,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":203718109860088,"gmtCreate":1690765147568,"gmtModify":1690765152507,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Double down means the Wall Street people are going out, they want you to buy more","listText":"Double down means the Wall Street people are going out, they want you to buy more","text":"Double down means the Wall Street people are going out, they want you to buy more","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/203718109860088","repostId":"2355696432","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2355696432","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1690761618,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2355696432?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-07-31 08:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir: Time To Double Down","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2355696432","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Palantir Stock: Time To Double Down (NYSE:PLTR)","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2 id=\"id_597421993\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Summary</h2><ul><li><p>Palantir is expected to reveal its Q2 earnings results in early August.</p></li><li><p>After Palantir’s stock aggressively appreciated due to the AI-related rally, the management would now need to convince the street why this rally has more legs to justify the current valuation.</p></li><li><p>While there are some major risks associated with investing in the company’s stock at the current levels, there are reasons to believe that there’s still some upside left.</p></li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/825a687fb2a755d5fe8156bbb25dfada\" alt=\"Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images News\" title=\"Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images News\" tg-width=\"750\" tg-height=\"521\"/><span>Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images News</span></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">After gaining momentum and later declining in price in the last couple of months due to the AI-related rally, Palantir&#39;s (NYSE:PLTR) stock is once again on a winning streak as it reached new 52-week highs just last week and currently trades close to those levels. In early August, the company is expected to report its Q2 earnings results, which would give investors a better understanding of whether this AI-related premium at which its shares currently trade is justified in the first place. Even though Palantir appears to be greatly overvalued right now, there are reasons to believe that the company&#39;s growth story is far from over and there&#39;s still some upside left.</p><h2 id=\"id_4148420583\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Is Generative AI The Next Big Thing?</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Last month I published an extensive article on Palantir&#39;s work in Ukraine, explained how the company is able to test its software on an actual battlefield in real-time and also addressed some of the bearish points that were raised by a popular short-selling newsletter. While that article extensively covered various parts of Palantir&#39;s business, it didn&#39;t fully highlight how the company now has the potential to aggressively grow its sales and greatly improve its performance thanks to its entrance into the generative AI field a couple of months ago. Considering that Palantir&#39;s stock has been able to skyrocket in the last few weeks and reach its 52-week highs mostly thanks to the market&#39;s obsession with AI, I decided to share some of my thoughts on why shares have the potential to appreciate even further ahead of the release of Q2 earnings results in August.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">In the last few months, I have been incorporating various generative AI applications into my workflow, which were able to perform a range of mundane tasks and helped me to increase my productivity. By having a first-hand experience with generative AI, I concluded that it&#39;s not another fad like the metaverse and it actually has the potential to have a profound impact on our society. That&#39;s likely one of the main reasons why we begin to see reports which expect the generative AI field to become an over $1 trillion market in the next decade and grow at a CAGR of over 40%. Add to all of this the fact that Apple (AAPL), Meta Platforms (META), Amazon (AMZN), and even Elon Musk revealed their own generative AI products in the last few weeks and it becomes obvious that it&#39;s not another hype story. As Big Tech scales its presence in the field, so is Palantir with the introduction of AIP in April.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">From what we know so far, AIP promotes human-AI collaborations by helping organizations deploy large language models within their internal systems that could understand, recommend, and trigger different business processes and actions. Think of it as ChatGPT that&#39;s personalized for your own workflow and is working within your environment whether you&#39;re a commercial or a military client of Palantir. In May, the company&#39;s management revealed that they are seeing unprecedented demand for AIP while earlier this month Bloomberg reported that the US military has also started testing generative AI applications and also noted that Palantir is one of the companies that develops AI-based platforms for the Pentagon.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Considering this, there are reasons to believe that Palantir&#39;s stock still has more upside after the latest rally, but only the Q2 results and an updated outlook for the year will properly show how much of this unprecedented demand will translate into monetary value.</p><h2 id=\"id_3591571458\" style=\"text-align: left;\">What&#39;s Next?</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">We already see how other companies that became leaders of the generative AI field earlier this year have seen their estimates for the year greatly increase. Some analysts now believe that Microsoft (MSFT) would be able to generate an additional $20 billion in revenues thanks to the launch of a single generative AI feature for its core products, while others think that the company would even be able to double revenues for some of its flagship products in the following years. The street now also expects Nvidia (NVDA), which sells major GPUs on which generative AI applications run, to increase its EPS by ~138% Y/Y and grow its revenues by ~61% this fiscal year.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Despite this, most analysts still have no idea how big of an impact the AIP sales would have on Palantir&#39;s overall performance. To this day, the street expects the company&#39;s revenues to increase only by 15.9% Y/Y in FY23, which is in-line with the previous estimates before the generative AI applications truly took off and increased in popularity. Therefore, it seems that analysts expect further guidance from the management before deciding whether to revise their forecasts.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">However, if Goldman Sachs (GS) is correct in its forecast that generative AI could raise the global GDP by 7%, then it&#39;s a clear sign that the industry would continue to expand, and new applications would be entering the market en masse in the following quarters. Therefore, if generative AI truly becomes an over $1 trillion market in the next decade, then Palantir&#39;s TAM would also greatly increase and its current market capitalization of ~$35 billion could be more than justified.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">That&#39;s likely one of the reasons why Palantir&#39;s shares haven&#39;t depreciated after the latest rally while Seeking Alpha&#39;s Quant system even gave the company&#39;s stock a rating of &#39;Strong Buy&#39;. Add to all of this the fact that Wedbush recently decided to give Palantir a price target of $25 per share due to its competitive advantages in the coming AI revolution and we could conclude that the current AI premium at which its shares currently trade is more than justified.</p><h2 id=\"id_1028404791\" style=\"text-align: left;\">The Valuation Dilemma</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">At this stage, the only major risk associated with investing in Palantir is the lack of clear understanding about what is the true value of its business. My DCF model from May along with the street average forecasts that are based on previous assumptions show that Palantir&#39;s fair value is in the range of $9 per share to $12 per share, which is below the current market price of ~$18 per share. However, since the beginning of summer, the generative AI field has truly taken off, but the assumptions haven&#39;t been properly revised as Wall Street is not entirely sure how big of an impact AIP will have on Palantir&#39;s financials and its valuation.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Considering this, it all comes down to whether the management would be able to convince the street why this rally has more legs to justify the current valuation at the upcoming earnings call in early August. I remain optimistic as there&#39;s a clear indication that the generative AI field would continue to expand at an aggressive rate and have a profound impact on our society. This should lead to the aggressive expansion of Palantir&#39;s TAM in the following years since the company already has a scalable product in the generative AI field that has experienced unprecedented demand since its launch a few months ago. If that&#39;s the case, then an upward revision of assumptions in my model would follow and would result in a much higher valuation that more than justifies the current market price.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Palantir: Time To Double Down</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nPalantir: Time To Double Down\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-07-31 08:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4621430-palantir-time-to-double-down><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryPalantir is expected to reveal its Q2 earnings results in early August.After Palantir’s stock aggressively appreciated due to the AI-related rally, the management would now need to convince the...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4621430-palantir-time-to-double-down\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PLTR":"Palantir Technologies Inc.","BK4543":"AI","BK4585":"ETF&股票定投概念","BK4547":"WSB热门概念","BK4588":"碎股","BK4023":"应用软件"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4621430-palantir-time-to-double-down","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2355696432","content_text":"SummaryPalantir is expected to reveal its Q2 earnings results in early August.After Palantir’s stock aggressively appreciated due to the AI-related rally, the management would now need to convince the street why this rally has more legs to justify the current valuation.While there are some major risks associated with investing in the company’s stock at the current levels, there are reasons to believe that there’s still some upside left.Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images NewsAfter gaining momentum and later declining in price in the last couple of months due to the AI-related rally, Palantir's (NYSE:PLTR) stock is once again on a winning streak as it reached new 52-week highs just last week and currently trades close to those levels.

record a year-on-year inflation decline, and both the Monetary Authority of Singapore and the Ministry for Trade and Industry expect core inflation to moderate further in the remainder of

target level.</p><p>The benchmark overnight interest rate now stands between 5.25% and 5.5%.</p><p>Its stance remains the same for future rate hikes – the committee will assess additional information,

Meanwhile, MAS’ investment gains stood at S$600 million. The central bank incurred a total expenditure of S$13.7 billion in FY2022/23, largely due to interest expenses on MAS bills and other borrowings for domestic money market operations.As Singapore dollar interest rates rose together with the increase in global interest rates, MAS incurred higher interest expense in its conduct of money market operations.This is the second year MAS has recorded a net loss, following a net loss of S$7.4 billion recorded in FY2021/22.This year, it similarly did not make a contribution to Singapore’s Consolidated Fund, nor return profits to the government.MAS also raised its issued and paid-up capital by S$25 billion to S$50 billion, as a conservative measure to ensure it remained well-capitalised relative to its assets.As at Mar 31, MAS’ total capital and reserves was $34.3 billion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":351,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9970228461,"gmtCreate":1684496829353,"gmtModify":1684496834045,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hahaha early this year, Wall Street being begging for a pause or pivot.

Every single one.</p></li></ul><p>The stock market has been waiting all year long for one thing: the Fed to pause its rate-hike campaign. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Yesterday, the central bank signaled it is getting ready to do just that and, in so doing, gave <strong>stocks permission to soar.</strong> </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The story here is shockingly simple. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">In the end, it all comes down to the Fed. Want to know whether you should buy stocks yet? It depends on what the Fed is planning to do next. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The U.S. Federal Reserve rules the financial universe. It controls the amount of money floating around the U.S. economy. This affects consumer spending, business growth, and stock prices.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">That’s why Wall Street has that old saying: “<em>Don’t fight the Fed!</em>” </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">A good rule of thumb is to buy stocks when the Fed is the market’s friend (not hiking rates), and sell stocks when it’s the market’s enemy (hiking rates). </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>And over the past year and change, the Fed has been the stock market’s public enemy No. 1.</strong> </p><h2 style=\"text-align: start;\">Will the Fed Ever Be Done With Rate Hikes?</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Since March 2022, the Fed has hiked rates 10 consecutive times – including four jumbo 75-basis-point hikes – in what has been the most aggressive and rapid rate-hiking campaign ever. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">It should be no surprise that stocks have slumped since then. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The Fed started hiking rates aggressively. Stocks started crashing. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong><em>But over the past few months, things have started to shift. </em></strong></p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Throughout last year, the Fed was continually getting more aggressive with its policy stance. The rate hikes kept getting bigger. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">But in the last month of 2022, the central bank downshifted from a 75-basis-point hike to a 50-basis-point hike. In the first month of 2023, it downshifted again, this time to a “normal” 25-basis-point hike. And it’s stayed there ever since. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">In other words, starting in mid-December 2022, the Federal Reserve started to get less aggressive with its rate hikes. This means it started to become more friendly to the stock market. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">And what has happened since December 2022? </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Stocks have rallied. The <strong>S&amp;P 500</strong> is up more than 6% year-to-date, after falling about 20% in 2022. </p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eb1f99361ef1958d92666b03db441abc\" alt=\"A graph showing the change in the S&amp;P 500 since January 2023\" title=\"A graph showing the change in the S&amp;P 500 since January 2023\" tg-width=\"946\" tg-height=\"598\"/><span>A graph showing the change in the S&amp;P 500 since January 2023</span></p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Again, that should be no surprise. It all comes back to the Fed. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Over the past few months, it has become less aggressive with its monetary policy. Consequently, stocks have rallied. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong><em>And that brings us to yesterday.</em></strong></p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Yesterday, the Fed hiked rates by 25 basis points, continuing the trend it established in December 2022. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">However, in the press release that announced the rate hike, the Fed omitted certain words and phrases that were in every rate-hike press release since March 2022. They served to signal to the market that more rate hikes were coming. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">By omitting them from this month’s release, the Fed is implicitly signaling that <em>no </em>more rate hikes are coming. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">In fact, Fed Board Chair Jerome Powell confirmed as much in his press conference yesterday. He explicitly said that the omission of these phrases was “meaningful.” </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Take from that what you will. To me, the implication is obvious. </p><h2 style=\"text-align: start;\">The Final Word</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Let’s go back to our golden rule of the stock market. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">When the Fed becomes less friendly toward markets, sell stocks. When the Fed becomes more friendly toward markets, buy stocks. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The Federal Reserve is about to take a massive step to become more friendly to markets by stopping its rate-hike campaign in June. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">You know what happens to stocks when the Fed pauses a rate-hike campaign</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">As you can <strong>see in the chart below, they rally. <em>Every time. </em></strong></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/155bfc83113d0d8ecc77410f89e17dfc\" alt=\"A graph showing the change in the Fed&#39;s target rate and the S&amp;P 500 over time\" title=\"A graph showing the change in the Fed&#39;s target rate and the S&amp;P 500 over time\" tg-width=\"940\" tg-height=\"495\"/><span>A graph showing the change in the Fed&#39;s target rate and the S&amp;P 500 over time</span></p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">In other words, I’m writing to you today to deliver three crystal-clear messages:</p><ol><li><p>The Fed just signaled it will pause its rate-hike campaign next month. </p></li><li><p>Since 1980, every single “Fed Pause” has sparked a stock market rally. Every single one. </p></li><li><p>In those “Pause” rallies, tech stocks tend to be the biggest winners, posting average returns of about 30% in a year. </p></li></ol><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The implication?

They served to signal to the market that more rate hikes were coming.By omitting them from this month’s release, the Fed is implicitly signaling that no more rate hikes are coming.Since 1980, every single “Fed Pause” has sparked a stock market rally. Every single one.The stock market has been waiting all year long for one thing: the Fed to pause its rate-hike campaign. Yesterday, the central bank signaled it is getting ready to do just that and, in so doing, gave stocks permission to soar. The story here is shockingly simple. In the end, it all comes down to the Fed. Want to know whether you should buy stocks yet? It depends on what the Fed is planning to do next. The U.S. Federal Reserve rules the financial universe. It controls the amount of money floating around the U.S. economy. This affects consumer spending, business growth, and stock prices.That’s why Wall Street has that old saying: “Don’t fight the Fed!” A good rule of thumb is to buy stocks when the Fed is the market’s friend (not hiking rates), and sell stocks when it’s the market’s enemy (hiking rates). And over the past year and change, the Fed has been the stock market’s public enemy No. 1. Will the Fed Ever Be Done With Rate Hikes?Since March 2022, the Fed has hiked rates 10 consecutive times – including four jumbo 75-basis-point hikes – in what has been the most aggressive and rapid rate-hiking campaign ever. It should be no surprise that stocks have slumped since then. The Fed started hiking rates aggressively. Stocks started crashing. But over the past few months, things have started to shift. Throughout last year, the Fed was continually getting more aggressive with its policy stance. The rate hikes kept getting bigger. But in the last month of 2022, the central bank downshifted from a 75-basis-point hike to a 50-basis-point hike. In the first month of 2023, it downshifted again, this time to a “normal” 25-basis-point hike. And it’s stayed there ever since. In other words, starting in mid-December 2022, the Federal Reserve started to get less aggressive with its rate hikes. This means it started to become more friendly to the stock market. And what has happened since December 2022? Stocks have rallied. The S&P 500 is up more than 6% year-to-date, after falling about 20% in 2022. A graph showing the change in the S&P 500 since January 2023Again, that should be no surprise. It all comes back to the Fed. Over the past few months, it has become less aggressive with its monetary policy. Consequently, stocks have rallied. And that brings us to yesterday.Yesterday, the Fed hiked rates by 25 basis points, continuing the trend it established in December 2022. However, in the press release that announced the rate hike, the Fed omitted certain words and phrases that were in every rate-hike press release since March 2022. They served to signal to the market that more rate hikes were coming. By omitting them from this month’s release, the Fed is implicitly signaling that no more rate hikes are coming. In fact, Fed Board Chair Jerome Powell confirmed as much in his press conference yesterday. He explicitly said that the omission of these phrases was “meaningful.” Take from that what you will. To me, the implication is obvious. The Final WordLet’s go back to our golden rule of the stock market. When the Fed becomes less friendly toward markets, sell stocks. When the Fed becomes more friendly toward markets, buy stocks. The Federal Reserve is about to take a massive step to become more friendly to markets by stopping its rate-hike campaign in June. You know what happens to stocks when the Fed pauses a rate-hike campaignAs you can see in the chart below, they rally. Every time. A graph showing the change in the Fed's target rate and the S&P 500 over timeIn other words, I’m writing to you today to deliver three crystal-clear messages:The Fed just signaled it will pause its rate-hike campaign next month. Since 1980, every single “Fed Pause” has sparked a stock market rally. Every single one. In those “Pause” rallies, tech stocks tend to be the biggest winners, posting average returns of about 30% in a year. The implication? It’s time to buy tech stocks. I see a big tech-driven stock market rally just around the corner. I also believe certain tech stocks are going to soar 100%-plus in that rally.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":244,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943515993,"gmtCreate":1679554072612,"gmtModify":1679554076312,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Even if inflation drop, prices will never drop.&nbsp;","listText":"Even if inflation drop, prices will never drop.&nbsp;","text":"Even if inflation drop, prices will never drop.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943515993","repostId":"2321626923","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2321626923","kind":"highlight","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":1679551115,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2321626923?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-23 13:58","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore February Core Inflation Rises Lower-Than-Forecast 5.5%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2321626923","media":"Reuters","summary":"(Reuters) - Singapore's key consumer price gauge rose 5.5% in February, unchanged from the previous ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>(Reuters) - Singapore&#39;s key consumer price gauge rose 5.5% in February, unchanged from the previous month and lower than forecast, official data showed on Thursday.</p><p>The core inflation rate - which excludes private road transport and accommodation costs - compared with a forecast in a Reuters poll of economists for a 5.8% increase in February.</p><p>Lower prices for services were broadly offset in the core inflation data by higher prices for retail, as well as other goods and utilities, the Monetary Authority of Singapore said in a statement.</p><p>However, the inflation rate in February is still at the same level as in January, which was the fastest pace seen since November, 2008.</p><p>MAS has said core inflation was likely to stay at about 5% for the early part of 2023.</p><p>It has also projected a core inflation rate of between 3.5% to 4.5% in 2023, with headline inflation coming in at between 5.5% and 6.5%.</p><p>Headline inflation was up 6.3% year-on-year in February, compared with a forecast 6.45% increase in a Reuters poll.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

(NYSE:NIO) previewed its Q1 results ten days ago, and despite what some have qualified as disappointing results and guidance, the stock is up nearly 30% in the last month.</p><p>Results, while not great, have been good in a challenging macroeconomic context. But most important are the numerous growth catalysts that NIO has announced in the last few months.</p><p>On top of that, with the recent rally, NIO shares have shown clear evidence of a sentiment shift and early signs that a bottom could be in.</p><p>With that said, I am changing my rating back to a strong buy, as I see this as an opportunity to both buy NIO near the low while also buying shares into strength.</p><p><b>Recent Results</b></p><p>In my last article on NIO, I talked about the challenges posed by the CCP and delisting fears. I gave NIO a buy rating back then since I was fundamentally bullish, but the environment and share price were not. Now, with the latest results in place, numerous catalysts and a strong trend reversal, I am shifting my view back to a strong buy.</p><p>Let’s begin by looking at deliveries for the latest quarter.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0bdf6679d390abdee3945b62903d029\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"188\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>NIO Q1 Deliveries(IR NIO)</p><p>NIO delivered 25,768 vehicles in Q1, which was only a 0.3% increase versus the latest quarter but a 25% increase YoY.</p><p>While deliveries have certainly been underwhelming, it is perhaps the shrinking margins which investors have been most concerned about:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fab46e448af8f6c75ae7f2b5c8095456\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"274\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>NIO Financial Results(NIO IR)</p><p>Although NIO provided a technical beat on EPS, vehicle margin has contracted by 310bp YoY and 280bp QoQ. The gross margin now sits at 14.8%, while it was 19.5% this time last year.</p><p>Investors are rightly asking themselves how a company like NIO will return value to them in the future. NIO is in a very competitive market and is also fighting supply disruptions, along with higher input costs brought about by inflation.</p><p>However, if we focus on what NIO can control, we see strong initiatives coming from the company to improve profitability, improve their product offerings, and keep growing at a fast rate.</p><p><b>Numerous Catalysts</b></p><p>NIO is doing everything it can to solve the problems it faces today. But complex problems require complex solutions, and it will take time for NIO to turn things around.</p><p>One such initiative is NIO announcing plans to develop its own battery pack in 2024. The company will produce an 800-volt pack and use a combination of in-home and outsourced batteries for its production needs.</p><p>This follows a prior announcement that NIO was investing $32.8 million to develop a lithium-ion battery lab in Shanghai. This is a great move on NIO&#39;s part, as lithium lies at the heart of battery technology and is becoming an expensive and scarce resource. EV makers that can find a way to optimize the use of lithium will have a great advantage over competitors moving forward.</p><p>Also, NIO’s founder William Li announced recently that the company would be launching a development (R&amp;D) center for autonomous driving and artificial intelligence in Singapore, where NIO shares were recently listed.</p><p>On top of that, it’s worth mentioning that NIO is building another factory in Lu&#39;an city, which will be completed in the first half of 2023. This park will make aluminum die-casting products, which will not only improve NIO’s margins but also help reduce emissions by 50%.</p><p>On the profitability front, NIO is doing its best to keep costs down by investing in better technology and increasing its production capacity, which will provide them with economies of scale.</p><p>On the more imminent growth part of the equation, we also have two recent catalysts that will help NIO maintain high levels of growth.</p><p>Firstly, the company has announced the launch of the ES7, a mid-large-sized SUV. What’s most notable about this launch is that it will be the first NIO vehicle to operate on the new NT 2.0 technology platform, which features level 4 autonomous driving. The ES7 could be a game-changer for NIO, and it should help boost sales starting in September.</p><p>Furthermore, NIO will also be getting help from the Chinese government. As one of the many measures introduced by the CCP to promote consumption after the pandemic, China will be increasing the quota for passenger cars. In China, the ownership of cars is limited, but this limit will be increased this year, which will be a catalyst for car manufacturers as a whole.</p><p>To this, we can add the fact that China will probably be expanding EV subsidies until next year.</p><p>In conclusion, we have numerous catalysts in play now that were not present a month ago, which is changing investor sentiment.</p><p><b>Early Signs of A Bottom</b></p><p>The events of the last month have propelled NIO shares higher since we reached a bottom at around $14. Investor sentiment looks to have shifted, COVID lockdowns in China are ending, the government is moving to increase consumption, and both NIO and the market as a whole have come down to much more attractive valuations.</p><p>We are beginning to see signs of a bottom, and this is also evident if we look at NIO’s price chart:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9e8016b3ec78347b3f5c43727e90b0c7\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"653\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>NIO Technical Analysis(Author&#39;s work)</p><p>As we can see from the chart above, NIO has now escaped the downtrend channel it has been in since November of last year. On top of that, we have seen very impulsive moves, with NIO rallying over 10% on numerous days. From an Elliott Wave perspective, we could point out 5 waves up, forming a diagonal.</p><p>Lastly, the RSI and MACD are also giving us bullish indications. On the 1D chart, the RSI has established a clear uptrend, but it is still far from overbought. The MACD has avoided a bullish crossover and gained momentum, which is also encouraging.</p><p>All in all, we are seeing early signs of a bottom. The sentiment is changing, which is backed up by the technical picture.</p><p><b>Valuation</b></p><p>EVs are essentially computers on wheels. That’s why comparisons and valuations with “traditional” auto manufacturers are inappropriate. EV makers are like tech companies, collecting data with every ride, and the value of this data is hard to calculate (though we know it is significant).</p><p>With that said, NIO currently trades at a P/S of 4, and this seems pretty low considering future growth prospects:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b56774ecb609017deaffbfadf74ebf48\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"174\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>NIO Revenue Forecasts(Seeking Alpha)</p><p>By 2025 NIO could achieve between $23-$35 billion in revenue, implying a fwd P/S of 0.89. NIO’s average P/S since its inception has been close to 11, and Tesla currently trades at a P/S close to 8. NIO’s P/S should be closer to this in the long run, and even using a conservative figure of 6, NIO shares could easily double from here.</p><p>On top of that, investing in NIO at these prices comes with a considerable safety net. NIO has about 5$/share and is trading at only four times that. This is a company that is growing fast and is nowhere near bankruptcy. Realistically, the shares can’t go down much below recent lows.</p><p><b>Risks</b></p><p>Investing in NIO doesn’t come without risks.

(NYSE:NIO) previewed its Q1 results ten days ago, and despite what some have qualified as disappointing results and guidance, the stock is up nearly 30% in the last month.Results, while not great, have been good in a challenging macroeconomic context. But most important are the numerous growth catalysts that NIO has announced in the last few months.On top of that, with the recent rally, NIO shares have shown clear evidence of a sentiment shift and early signs that a bottom could be in.With that said, I am changing my rating back to a strong buy, as I see this as an opportunity to both buy NIO near the low while also buying shares into strength.Recent ResultsIn my last article on NIO, I talked about the challenges posed by the CCP and delisting fears. I gave NIO a buy rating back then since I was fundamentally bullish, but the environment and share price were not. Now, with the latest results in place, numerous catalysts and a strong trend reversal, I am shifting my view back to a strong buy.Let’s begin by looking at deliveries for the latest quarter.NIO Q1 Deliveries(IR NIO)NIO delivered 25,768 vehicles in Q1, which was only a 0.3% increase versus the latest quarter but a 25% increase YoY.While deliveries have certainly been underwhelming, it is perhaps the shrinking margins which investors have been most concerned about:NIO Financial Results(NIO IR)Although NIO provided a technical beat on EPS, vehicle margin has contracted by 310bp YoY and 280bp QoQ. The gross margin now sits at 14.8%, while it was 19.5% this time last year.Investors are rightly asking themselves how a company like NIO will return value to them in the future. NIO is in a very competitive market and is also fighting supply disruptions, along with higher input costs brought about by inflation.However, if we focus on what NIO can control, we see strong initiatives coming from the company to improve profitability, improve their product offerings, and keep growing at a fast rate.Numerous CatalystsNIO is doing everything it can to solve the problems it faces today. But complex problems require complex solutions, and it will take time for NIO to turn things around.One such initiative is NIO announcing plans to develop its own battery pack in 2024. The company will produce an 800-volt pack and use a combination of in-home and outsourced batteries for its production needs.This follows a prior announcement that NIO was investing $32.8 million to develop a lithium-ion battery lab in Shanghai. This is a great move on NIO's part, as lithium lies at the heart of battery technology and is becoming an expensive and scarce resource. EV makers that can find a way to optimize the use of lithium will have a great advantage over competitors moving forward.Also, NIO’s founder William Li announced recently that the company would be launching a development (R&D) center for autonomous driving and artificial intelligence in Singapore, where NIO shares were recently listed.On top of that, it’s worth mentioning that NIO is building another factory in Lu'an city, which will be completed in the first half of 2023. This park will make aluminum die-casting products, which will not only improve NIO’s margins but also help reduce emissions by 50%.On the profitability front, NIO is doing its best to keep costs down by investing in better technology and increasing its production capacity, which will provide them with economies of scale.On the more imminent growth part of the equation, we also have two recent catalysts that will help NIO maintain high levels of growth.Firstly, the company has announced the launch of the ES7, a mid-large-sized SUV. What’s most notable about this launch is that it will be the first NIO vehicle to operate on the new NT 2.0 technology platform, which features level 4 autonomous driving. The ES7 could be a game-changer for NIO, and it should help boost sales starting in September.Furthermore, NIO will also be getting help from the Chinese government. As one of the many measures introduced by the CCP to promote consumption after the pandemic, China will be increasing the quota for passenger cars. In China, the ownership of cars is limited, but this limit will be increased this year, which will be a catalyst for car manufacturers as a whole.To this, we can add the fact that China will probably be expanding EV subsidies until next year.In conclusion, we have numerous catalysts in play now that were not present a month ago, which is changing investor sentiment.Early Signs of A BottomThe events of the last month have propelled NIO shares higher since we reached a bottom at around $14. Investor sentiment looks to have shifted, COVID lockdowns in China are ending, the government is moving to increase consumption, and both NIO and the market as a whole have come down to much more attractive valuations.We are beginning to see signs of a bottom, and this is also evident if we look at NIO’s price chart:NIO Technical Analysis(Author's work)As we can see from the chart above, NIO has now escaped the downtrend channel it has been in since November of last year. On top of that, we have seen very impulsive moves, with NIO rallying over 10% on numerous days. From an Elliott Wave perspective, we could point out 5 waves up, forming a diagonal.Lastly, the RSI and MACD are also giving us bullish indications. On the 1D chart, the RSI has established a clear uptrend, but it is still far from overbought. The MACD has avoided a bullish crossover and gained momentum, which is also encouraging.All in all, we are seeing early signs of a bottom. The sentiment is changing, which is backed up by the technical picture.ValuationEVs are essentially computers on wheels. That’s why comparisons and valuations with “traditional” auto manufacturers are inappropriate. EV makers are like tech companies, collecting data with every ride, and the value of this data is hard to calculate (though we know it is significant).With that said, NIO currently trades at a P/S of 4, and this seems pretty low considering future growth prospects:NIO Revenue Forecasts(Seeking Alpha)By 2025 NIO could achieve between $23-$35 billion in revenue, implying a fwd P/S of 0.89. NIO’s average P/S since its inception has been close to 11, and Tesla currently trades at a P/S close to 8. NIO’s P/S should be closer to this in the long run, and even using a conservative figure of 6, NIO shares could easily double from here.On top of that, investing in NIO at these prices comes with a considerable safety net. NIO has about 5$/share and is trading at only four times that. This is a company that is growing fast and is nowhere near bankruptcy. Realistically, the shares can’t go down much below recent lows.RisksInvesting in NIO doesn’t come without risks. Chinese stocks are in a delicate situation right now, given geopolitical tensions and delisting fears, which I addressed in my last article.As mentioned above, NIO favors a challenging macro environment and a competitive landscape, but I see evidence that the company can turn this around.Final ThoughtsNIO Inc is one of the leading EV manufacturers in China, quickly becoming a global company. While recent results could be interpreted as weak, the company is making the right moves to improve profitability and keep growing. Furthermore, investors should remember that EVs are more than just cars, and the value of the data and technology in them is hard to calculate at this point; this is why Tesla and NIO command much higher valuation multiples.While it is still early days, I believe the most likely scenario now is that the bottom is in.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":344,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9008776671,"gmtCreate":1641539310624,"gmtModify":1676533627160,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Previously she say to dump Tesla at 800+ never trust their words.&nbsp;","listText":"Previously she say to dump Tesla at 800+ never trust their words.&nbsp;","text":"Previously she say to dump Tesla at 800+ never trust their words.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9008776671","repostId":"1122167391","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1122167391","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1641525994,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1122167391?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-07 11:26","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood Sells Another $4.9M In Tesla Stock On Thursday — Here's What She Bought Instead","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1122167391","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Cathie Wood’s Ark Investment Management on Thursday booked more profit in Tesla Inc, selling 4,620 s","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Cathie Wood</b>’s <b>Ark Investment Management</b> on Thursday booked more profit in <b>Tesla Inc</b>, selling 4,620 shares — estimated to be worth $4.9 million based on the latest closing price — in the electric vehicle maker.</p><p>The <b>Elon Musk</b>-led company’s stock closed 2.15% lower at $1,064.7 a share on Thursday.</p><p>Tesla stock posted significant gains on Monday as it reported fourth-quarter delivery volumes that far surpassed expectations; the gains have been since erased.

TheS&P 500slid 1.3% to 4,166.45. Both the Dow and S&P 500 hit their session lows in the final minutes of trading and closed around those levels. TheNasdaq Compositeclosed 0.9% lower at 14,030.38. Economic comeback plays led the market losses.\nFor the week, the 30-stock Dow lost 3.5%. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq were down by 1.9% and 0.2%, respectively, week to date.\nSt. Louis Federal Reserve President Jim Bullardtold CNBC's \"Squawk Box\"on Friday it was natural for the Fed to tilt a little \"hawkish\" this week and that the first rate increase from the central bank would likely come in 2022. His comments came after the Fed on Wednesday added two rate hikes to its 2023 forecast and increased its inflation projection for the year, putting pressure on stock prices.\n\"The fear held by some investors is that if the Fed tightens policy sooner than expected to help cool inflationary pressures, this could weigh on future economic growth,\" Truist Advisory Services chief market strategist Keith Lerner said in a note. To be sure, he added it would be premature to give up on the so-called value trade right now.\nPockets of the market most sensitive to the economic rebound led the sell-off this week. The S&P 500 energy sector and industrials dropped 5.2% and 3.8%, respectively, for the week. Financials and materials meanwhile, lost more than 6% each. These groups had been market leaders this year on the back of the economic reopening.\nThe decline in stocks came as the Fed's actions caused a drastic flattening of the so-called Treasury yield curve. This means the yields of shorter-duration Treasurys — like the 2-year note — rose while longer-duration yields like the benchmark 10-year declined. The retreat in long-dated bond yields reflects less optimism toward economic growth, while the jump in short-end yields shows the expectations of the Fed raising rates.\nThis phenomenon hurt bank stocks particularly as their earnings could take a hit when the spread between short-term and long-term rates narrows. Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase shares on Friday lost more than 2% each. Citigroup fell by 1.8%, posting its 12th straight daily decline.\nFed Chairman Jerome Powell said Wednesday that officials have discussed tapering bond buying and would at some point begin slowing the asset purchases.\n\"This week's first whiff of an eventual change in Fed policy was a reminder that emergency monetary conditions and the free-money era will ultimately end,\" strategists at MRB Partners wrote in a note. \"We expect a series of incremental retreats from the Fed's benign inflation outlook in the coming months.\"\nCommodity prices were underpressure this weekas China attempted to cool rising prices and as the U.S. dollar strengthens. Copper, gold and platinum fell once again on Friday.\nFriday also coincided with the quarterly \"quadruple witching\" in which options and futures on indexes and equities expire. This event may have contributed to more volatile trading during the session.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":152,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3585352116267703","authorId":"3585352116267703","name":"ac1887","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4f5865f79452e7da123e88ff35959e5","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3585352116267703","idStr":"3585352116267703"},"content":"comment and like","text":"comment and like","html":"comment and like"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9008776671,"gmtCreate":1641539310624,"gmtModify":1676533627160,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Previously she say to dump Tesla at 800+ never trust their words.&nbsp;","listText":"Previously she say to dump Tesla at 800+ never trust their words.&nbsp;","text":"Previously she say to dump Tesla at 800+ never trust their words.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9008776671","repostId":"1122167391","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1122167391","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1641525994,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1122167391?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-07 11:26","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood Sells Another $4.9M In Tesla Stock On Thursday — Here's What She Bought Instead","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1122167391","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Cathie Wood’s Ark Investment Management on Thursday booked more profit in Tesla Inc, selling 4,620 s","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Cathie Wood</b>’s <b>Ark Investment Management</b> on Thursday booked more profit in <b>Tesla Inc</b>, selling 4,620 shares — estimated to be worth $4.9 million based on the latest closing price — in the electric vehicle maker.</p><p>The <b>Elon Musk</b>-led company’s stock closed 2.15% lower at $1,064.7 a share on Thursday.</p><p>Tesla stock posted significant gains on Monday as it reported fourth-quarter delivery volumes that far surpassed expectations; the gains have been since erased.

Shares have jumped almost 8% for the week and are on pace for their best week since April.\nInvestors, rightly so, are wondering what’s going on. We found four reasons, outlined below.\nTaking Cues From China\nMany electric-vehicle stocks have been on a winning streak lately, beyond just Tesla. Coming into the week, shares of Chinese EV maker NIO(NIO) were up 17% for the month.XPeng(XPEV) and Li Auto(LI) had gained 31% and 36%, respectively.\nTesla, on the other hand, was down for the month of June coming into this week. But China is the world’s largest market for EVs, so when things are going well there, it bodes well for Tesla. It looks like some of the Chinese EV maker stocks’ shine has finally rubbed off on Tesla.\nDelivery Optimism\nThe second reason is about second-quarter deliveries, after perceived weakness in Chinese delivery numbers. More recently, however, several reports have been popping up about Tesla working hard to deliver vehicles into the end of this month.\n“After a disaster start to the quarter for Tesla in China, the Street is reading the tea leaves as bullish for the month of June with momentum into [the second half],” Wedbush analyst Dan Ivestells Barron’s. He believes 900,000 deliveries is still possible for 2021. Wall Street is modeling about 825,000. Tesla delivered about 500,000 cars in 2020.\nGreen Tidal Wave\nIves has also written about a “green tidal wave” coming from the White House. President Joe Biden wants part of any infrastructure bill to include purchase incentives for EVs as well as charging infrastructure. A bill isn’t ready, but progress was made in Washington this week.\nMusk Tweeting, Again\nNo search for the reason behind moves in Tesla stock would be complete without looking at CEO Elon Musk ‘s Twitter (TWTR) feed. He tweeted Friday that the updated full self-driving, or FSD, software and subscription pricing could roll out in as soon as a week.\nTesla plans to offer its highest level of driver assistance, called full self-driving or FSD, on a subscription basis. It’s a new era for car companies, which don’t typically get to realize recurring revenue like software providers. Bulls have been waiting quite some time for the FSD subscription to arrive.\nWhat’s Next\nNext up for Tesla investors, after any FSD release, will be second-quarter delivery numbers and then earnings. Those data points come in July.\nYear to date, Tesla stock is still down about 4.8%, trailing behind comparable gains of the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":340,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":123788359,"gmtCreate":1624439179471,"gmtModify":1703836715114,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like please","listText":"Like please","text":"Like please","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/123788359","repostId":"1146909987","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1146909987","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624438496,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1146909987?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 16:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Temasek-backed software startup Sprinklr raises US$266m in downsized US IPO","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1146909987","media":"BLOOMBERG","summary":"[SAN FRANCISCO] Sprinklr, a customer experience software maker, raised US$266 million after pricing ","content":"<p>[SAN FRANCISCO] Sprinklr, a customer experience software maker, raised US$266 million after pricing its US initial public offering (IPO) below a marketed range and cutting the number of shares sold.</p>\n<p>The company priced 16.6 million shares on Tuesday at US$16 each after marketing 19 million shares for US$18 to US$20 apiece, according to a statement.</p>\n<p>At US$16 a share, Sprinklr has a market value of about US$4 billion based on the outstanding shares listed in its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.</p>\n<p>Sprinklr was last valued at US$2.7 billion when it raised financing last year, according to data provider PitchBook.</p>\n<p>Sprinklr works with clients such as Microsoft, McDonald's and Cisco Systems to help brands interact with customers online.

Although sources say United is weighing a new order for at least 100 or even up to 200 MAX, its requirement for large single-aisles will be served by Airbus - reinforcing the market split.\nThe flight, watched by dozens of employees but virtually no visitors as Boeing sought to downplay the event, showcased a revamped landing gear system illustrating an industry battle to squeeze as much mileage as possible out of the current generation of single-aisles.\nIt raises the landing gear's height during take-off and landing, a design needed to compensate for the MAX 10's extra length and prevent the tail scraping the runway on take-off.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":108,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":305087779319984,"gmtCreate":1715518908642,"gmtModify":1715518912439,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Inflation is due to US government high spending, not just rental.&nbsp;","listText":"Inflation is due to US government high spending, not just rental.&nbsp;","text":"Inflation is due to US government high spending, not just rental.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/305087779319984","repostId":"2434580274","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2434580274","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1715509067,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2434580274?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2024-05-12 18:17","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Stubbornly High Rents Prevent Fed From Finishing Inflation Fight","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2434580274","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Stalled inflation this year hasn't derailed the Federal Reserve's plans to eventually cut interest rates.

For inflation to get back to 2%, nonhousing services inflation has to drop to less than 3% from 3.5% now, and housing to around 3.5% from 5.8%. If inflation stays higher, Fed officials are likely to hold interest rates at their current levels, the highest in two decades, until they see more concrete evidence that the economy is slowing.The ‘last lag’ or the last mile?Many economists still think it’s only a matter of time before housing inflation reflects the slowdown in new leases that began two years ago. It might be taking longer than expected because more renters are renewing their leases instead of buying a home, deterred by high mortgage rates. That could lengthen the time it takes for lower rents from newly signed leases to show up in overall inflation.  “I still think that check is in the mail, but unfortunately, it’s taking longer for that check to arrive than I anticipated,” said David Wilcox, an economist at Bloomberg Economics and the Peterson Institute for International Economics. “I just don’t see an alternative outcome other than those low lease rates eventually manifest themselves in the official price indexes.”Stalled inflation has fanned fears the Fed might have to weaken the labor market, risking recession, to finish the “last mile” of bringing down inflation. But that might not be necessary if prices, such as for housing, reflect economic conditions from a few years ago rather than now. Higher car-insurance costs or hospital-service prices, for example, reflect big increases in auto prices and hospital wages two years ago, respectively, said Omair Sharif, founder of research firm Inflation Insights. “It’s the ‘last lag’ story, not the ‘last mile’ story,” he said.Demand tailwindsSome doubt whether housing will help as much as anticipated in bringing inflation down. Rents tend to be sensitive to wages and income, and as long as those expand solidly, rents might not slow as much.A key reason market rents have moderated is that the industry is adding a record amount of new apartment supply. Some industry executives say, though, that that supply is being quickly absorbed because of increased immigration and solid job and wage growth.“One of the surprises of the last six months, specific to multifamily, has been the reacceleration of demand,” Parsons said. At Camden Property Trust, a Houston-based owner of 58,000 apartment homes, the share of tenants moving out to buy homes has fallen to 9%, the lowest in the company’s three-decade history and down from a traditional move-out rate of 15% to 18%.To be sure, rent growth at Camden, which fell to 3% last year from a record 13% in 2022, is expected to be less than 1% this year.“Most folks believed you would have had a massive falloff in rental growth throughout the Sunbelt,” said Ric Campo, chief executive of Camden. “But what’s happening is there’s been just a whole lot more demand than most people expected.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":266,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":203718109860088,"gmtCreate":1690765147568,"gmtModify":1690765152507,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Double down means the Wall Street people are going out, they want you to buy more","listText":"Double down means the Wall Street people are going out, they want you to buy more","text":"Double down means the Wall Street people are going out, they want you to buy more","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/203718109860088","repostId":"2355696432","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2355696432","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1690761618,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2355696432?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-07-31 08:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir: Time To Double Down","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2355696432","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Palantir Stock: Time To Double Down (NYSE:PLTR)","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2 id=\"id_597421993\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Summary</h2><ul><li><p>Palantir is expected to reveal its Q2 earnings results in early August.</p></li><li><p>After Palantir’s stock aggressively appreciated due to the AI-related rally, the management would now need to convince the street why this rally has more legs to justify the current valuation.</p></li><li><p>While there are some major risks associated with investing in the company’s stock at the current levels, there are reasons to believe that there’s still some upside left.</p></li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/825a687fb2a755d5fe8156bbb25dfada\" alt=\"Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images News\" title=\"Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images News\" tg-width=\"750\" tg-height=\"521\"/><span>Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images News</span></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">After gaining momentum and later declining in price in the last couple of months due to the AI-related rally, Palantir&#39;s (NYSE:PLTR) stock is once again on a winning streak as it reached new 52-week highs just last week and currently trades close to those levels. In early August, the company is expected to report its Q2 earnings results, which would give investors a better understanding of whether this AI-related premium at which its shares currently trade is justified in the first place. Even though Palantir appears to be greatly overvalued right now, there are reasons to believe that the company&#39;s growth story is far from over and there&#39;s still some upside left.</p><h2 id=\"id_4148420583\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Is Generative AI The Next Big Thing?</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Last month I published an extensive article on Palantir&#39;s work in Ukraine, explained how the company is able to test its software on an actual battlefield in real-time and also addressed some of the bearish points that were raised by a popular short-selling newsletter. While that article extensively covered various parts of Palantir&#39;s business, it didn&#39;t fully highlight how the company now has the potential to aggressively grow its sales and greatly improve its performance thanks to its entrance into the generative AI field a couple of months ago. Considering that Palantir&#39;s stock has been able to skyrocket in the last few weeks and reach its 52-week highs mostly thanks to the market&#39;s obsession with AI, I decided to share some of my thoughts on why shares have the potential to appreciate even further ahead of the release of Q2 earnings results in August.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">In the last few months, I have been incorporating various generative AI applications into my workflow, which were able to perform a range of mundane tasks and helped me to increase my productivity. By having a first-hand experience with generative AI, I concluded that it&#39;s not another fad like the metaverse and it actually has the potential to have a profound impact on our society. That&#39;s likely one of the main reasons why we begin to see reports which expect the generative AI field to become an over $1 trillion market in the next decade and grow at a CAGR of over 40%. Add to all of this the fact that Apple (AAPL), Meta Platforms (META), Amazon (AMZN), and even Elon Musk revealed their own generative AI products in the last few weeks and it becomes obvious that it&#39;s not another hype story. As Big Tech scales its presence in the field, so is Palantir with the introduction of AIP in April.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">From what we know so far, AIP promotes human-AI collaborations by helping organizations deploy large language models within their internal systems that could understand, recommend, and trigger different business processes and actions. Think of it as ChatGPT that&#39;s personalized for your own workflow and is working within your environment whether you&#39;re a commercial or a military client of Palantir. In May, the company&#39;s management revealed that they are seeing unprecedented demand for AIP while earlier this month Bloomberg reported that the US military has also started testing generative AI applications and also noted that Palantir is one of the companies that develops AI-based platforms for the Pentagon.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Considering this, there are reasons to believe that Palantir&#39;s stock still has more upside after the latest rally, but only the Q2 results and an updated outlook for the year will properly show how much of this unprecedented demand will translate into monetary value.</p><h2 id=\"id_3591571458\" style=\"text-align: left;\">What&#39;s Next?</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">We already see how other companies that became leaders of the generative AI field earlier this year have seen their estimates for the year greatly increase. Some analysts now believe that Microsoft (MSFT) would be able to generate an additional $20 billion in revenues thanks to the launch of a single generative AI feature for its core products, while others think that the company would even be able to double revenues for some of its flagship products in the following years. The street now also expects Nvidia (NVDA), which sells major GPUs on which generative AI applications run, to increase its EPS by ~138% Y/Y and grow its revenues by ~61% this fiscal year.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Despite this, most analysts still have no idea how big of an impact the AIP sales would have on Palantir&#39;s overall performance. To this day, the street expects the company&#39;s revenues to increase only by 15.9% Y/Y in FY23, which is in-line with the previous estimates before the generative AI applications truly took off and increased in popularity. Therefore, it seems that analysts expect further guidance from the management before deciding whether to revise their forecasts.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">However, if Goldman Sachs (GS) is correct in its forecast that generative AI could raise the global GDP by 7%, then it&#39;s a clear sign that the industry would continue to expand, and new applications would be entering the market en masse in the following quarters. Therefore, if generative AI truly becomes an over $1 trillion market in the next decade, then Palantir&#39;s TAM would also greatly increase and its current market capitalization of ~$35 billion could be more than justified.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">That&#39;s likely one of the reasons why Palantir&#39;s shares haven&#39;t depreciated after the latest rally while Seeking Alpha&#39;s Quant system even gave the company&#39;s stock a rating of &#39;Strong Buy&#39;. Add to all of this the fact that Wedbush recently decided to give Palantir a price target of $25 per share due to its competitive advantages in the coming AI revolution and we could conclude that the current AI premium at which its shares currently trade is more than justified.</p><h2 id=\"id_1028404791\" style=\"text-align: left;\">The Valuation Dilemma</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">At this stage, the only major risk associated with investing in Palantir is the lack of clear understanding about what is the true value of its business. My DCF model from May along with the street average forecasts that are based on previous assumptions show that Palantir&#39;s fair value is in the range of $9 per share to $12 per share, which is below the current market price of ~$18 per share. However, since the beginning of summer, the generative AI field has truly taken off, but the assumptions haven&#39;t been properly revised as Wall Street is not entirely sure how big of an impact AIP will have on Palantir&#39;s financials and its valuation.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Considering this, it all comes down to whether the management would be able to convince the street why this rally has more legs to justify the current valuation at the upcoming earnings call in early August. I remain optimistic as there&#39;s a clear indication that the generative AI field would continue to expand at an aggressive rate and have a profound impact on our society. This should lead to the aggressive expansion of Palantir&#39;s TAM in the following years since the company already has a scalable product in the generative AI field that has experienced unprecedented demand since its launch a few months ago. If that&#39;s the case, then an upward revision of assumptions in my model would follow and would result in a much higher valuation that more than justifies the current market price.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Palantir: Time To Double Down</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nPalantir: Time To Double Down\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-07-31 08:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4621430-palantir-time-to-double-down><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryPalantir is expected to reveal its Q2 earnings results in early August.After Palantir’s stock aggressively appreciated due to the AI-related rally, the management would now need to convince the...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4621430-palantir-time-to-double-down\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PLTR":"Palantir Technologies Inc.","BK4543":"AI","BK4585":"ETF&股票定投概念","BK4547":"WSB热门概念","BK4588":"碎股","BK4023":"应用软件"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4621430-palantir-time-to-double-down","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2355696432","content_text":"SummaryPalantir is expected to reveal its Q2 earnings results in early August.After Palantir’s stock aggressively appreciated due to the AI-related rally, the management would now need to convince the street why this rally has more legs to justify the current valuation.While there are some major risks associated with investing in the company’s stock at the current levels, there are reasons to believe that there’s still some upside left.Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images NewsAfter gaining momentum and later declining in price in the last couple of months due to the AI-related rally, Palantir's (NYSE:PLTR) stock is once again on a winning streak as it reached new 52-week highs just last week and currently trades close to those levels.

(NYSE:NIO) previewed its Q1 results ten days ago, and despite what some have qualified as disappointing results and guidance, the stock is up nearly 30% in the last month.Results, while not great, have been good in a challenging macroeconomic context. But most important are the numerous growth catalysts that NIO has announced in the last few months.On top of that, with the recent rally, NIO shares have shown clear evidence of a sentiment shift and early signs that a bottom could be in.With that said, I am changing my rating back to a strong buy, as I see this as an opportunity to both buy NIO near the low while also buying shares into strength.Recent ResultsIn my last article on NIO, I talked about the challenges posed by the CCP and delisting fears. I gave NIO a buy rating back then since I was fundamentally bullish, but the environment and share price were not. Now, with the latest results in place, numerous catalysts and a strong trend reversal, I am shifting my view back to a strong buy.Let’s begin by looking at deliveries for the latest quarter.NIO Q1 Deliveries(IR NIO)NIO delivered 25,768 vehicles in Q1, which was only a 0.3% increase versus the latest quarter but a 25% increase YoY.While deliveries have certainly been underwhelming, it is perhaps the shrinking margins which investors have been most concerned about:NIO Financial Results(NIO IR)Although NIO provided a technical beat on EPS, vehicle margin has contracted by 310bp YoY and 280bp QoQ. The gross margin now sits at 14.8%, while it was 19.5% this time last year.Investors are rightly asking themselves how a company like NIO will return value to them in the future. NIO is in a very competitive market and is also fighting supply disruptions, along with higher input costs brought about by inflation.However, if we focus on what NIO can control, we see strong initiatives coming from the company to improve profitability, improve their product offerings, and keep growing at a fast rate.Numerous CatalystsNIO is doing everything it can to solve the problems it faces today. But complex problems require complex solutions, and it will take time for NIO to turn things around.One such initiative is NIO announcing plans to develop its own battery pack in 2024. The company will produce an 800-volt pack and use a combination of in-home and outsourced batteries for its production needs.This follows a prior announcement that NIO was investing $32.8 million to develop a lithium-ion battery lab in Shanghai. This is a great move on NIO's part, as lithium lies at the heart of battery technology and is becoming an expensive and scarce resource. EV makers that can find a way to optimize the use of lithium will have a great advantage over competitors moving forward.Also, NIO’s founder William Li announced recently that the company would be launching a development (R&D) center for autonomous driving and artificial intelligence in Singapore, where NIO shares were recently listed.On top of that, it’s worth mentioning that NIO is building another factory in Lu'an city, which will be completed in the first half of 2023. This park will make aluminum die-casting products, which will not only improve NIO’s margins but also help reduce emissions by 50%.On the profitability front, NIO is doing its best to keep costs down by investing in better technology and increasing its production capacity, which will provide them with economies of scale.On the more imminent growth part of the equation, we also have two recent catalysts that will help NIO maintain high levels of growth.Firstly, the company has announced the launch of the ES7, a mid-large-sized SUV. What’s most notable about this launch is that it will be the first NIO vehicle to operate on the new NT 2.0 technology platform, which features level 4 autonomous driving. The ES7 could be a game-changer for NIO, and it should help boost sales starting in September.Furthermore, NIO will also be getting help from the Chinese government.

In China, the ownership of cars is limited, but this limit will be increased this year, which will be a catalyst for car manufacturers as a whole.To this, we can add the fact that China will probably be expanding EV subsidies until next year.In conclusion, we have numerous catalysts in play now that were not present a month ago, which is changing investor sentiment.Early Signs of A BottomThe events of the last month have propelled NIO shares higher since we reached a bottom at around $14. Investor sentiment looks to have shifted, COVID lockdowns in China are ending, the government is moving to increase consumption, and both NIO and the market as a whole have come down to much more attractive valuations.We are beginning to see signs of a bottom, and this is also evident if we look at NIO’s price chart:NIO Technical Analysis(Author's work)As we can see from the chart above, NIO has now escaped the downtrend channel it has been in since November of last year.

The Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.79% to 14,141.48.\nCryptocurrency stocks, including miners Riot Blockchain, Marathon Patent Group and crypto exchange Coinbase Global, tumbled between 1% and 4% on China’s expanding crackdown on bitcoin mining.\nModerna Inc rallied 4.5% after a report said the drugmaker is adding two new production lines at a COVID-19 vaccine manufacturing plant, in a bid to prepare for making more booster shots.\nMarket participants are girding for a major trading event on Friday, when the FTSE Russell completes the annual rebalancing of its indexes, potentially affecting trillions of dollars in investments.\nAdvancing issues outnumbered declining ones on the NYSE by a 2.86-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 1.44-to-1 ratio favored advancers.\nThe S&P 500 posted 20 new 52-week highs and no new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 74 new highs and 55 new lows.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 10.1 billion shares, compared with the 11 billion average over the last 20 trading days.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":88,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":203006230872280,"gmtCreate":1690591346629,"gmtModify":1690591350541,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Inflation drop but in reality?

Every single one.</p></li></ul><p>The stock market has been waiting all year long for one thing: the Fed to pause its rate-hike campaign. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Yesterday, the central bank signaled it is getting ready to do just that and, in so doing, gave <strong>stocks permission to soar.</strong> </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The story here is shockingly simple. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">In the end, it all comes down to the Fed. Want to know whether you should buy stocks yet? It depends on what the Fed is planning to do next. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The U.S. Federal Reserve rules the financial universe. It controls the amount of money floating around the U.S. economy. This affects consumer spending, business growth, and stock prices.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">That’s why Wall Street has that old saying: “<em>Don’t fight the Fed!</em>” </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">A good rule of thumb is to buy stocks when the Fed is the market’s friend (not hiking rates), and sell stocks when it’s the market’s enemy (hiking rates). </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>And over the past year and change, the Fed has been the stock market’s public enemy No. 1.</strong> </p><h2 style=\"text-align: start;\">Will the Fed Ever Be Done With Rate Hikes?</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Since March 2022, the Fed has hiked rates 10 consecutive times – including four jumbo 75-basis-point hikes – in what has been the most aggressive and rapid rate-hiking campaign ever. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">It should be no surprise that stocks have slumped since then. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The Fed started hiking rates aggressively. Stocks started crashing. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong><em>But over the past few months, things have started to shift. </em></strong></p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Throughout last year, the Fed was continually getting more aggressive with its policy stance. The rate hikes kept getting bigger. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">But in the last month of 2022, the central bank downshifted from a 75-basis-point hike to a 50-basis-point hike. In the first month of 2023, it downshifted again, this time to a “normal” 25-basis-point hike. And it’s stayed there ever since. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">In other words, starting in mid-December 2022, the Federal Reserve started to get less aggressive with its rate hikes. This means it started to become more friendly to the stock market. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">And what has happened since December 2022? </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Stocks have rallied. The <strong>S&amp;P 500</strong> is up more than 6% year-to-date, after falling about 20% in 2022. </p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eb1f99361ef1958d92666b03db441abc\" alt=\"A graph showing the change in the S&amp;P 500 since January 2023\" title=\"A graph showing the change in the S&amp;P 500 since January 2023\" tg-width=\"946\" tg-height=\"598\"/><span>A graph showing the change in the S&amp;P 500 since January 2023</span></p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Again, that should be no surprise. It all comes back to the Fed. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Over the past few months, it has become less aggressive with its monetary policy. Consequently, stocks have rallied. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong><em>And that brings us to yesterday.</em></strong></p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Yesterday, the Fed hiked rates by 25 basis points, continuing the trend it established in December 2022. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">However, in the press release that announced the rate hike, the Fed omitted certain words and phrases that were in every rate-hike press release since March 2022. They served to signal to the market that more rate hikes were coming. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">By omitting them from this month’s release, the Fed is implicitly signaling that <em>no </em>more rate hikes are coming. </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">In fact, Fed Board Chair Jerome Powell confirmed as much in his press conference yesterday.

They served to signal to the market that more rate hikes were coming.By omitting them from this month’s release, the Fed is implicitly signaling that no more rate hikes are coming.Since 1980, every single “Fed Pause” has sparked a stock market rally. Every single one.The stock market has been waiting all year long for one thing: the Fed to pause its rate-hike campaign. Yesterday, the central bank signaled it is getting ready to do just that and, in so doing, gave stocks permission to soar. The story here is shockingly simple. In the end, it all comes down to the Fed. Want to know whether you should buy stocks yet? It depends on what the Fed is planning to do next. The U.S. Federal Reserve rules the financial universe. It controls the amount of money floating around the U.S. economy. This affects consumer spending, business growth, and stock prices.That’s why Wall Street has that old saying: “Don’t fight the Fed!” A good rule of thumb is to buy stocks when the Fed is the market’s friend (not hiking rates), and sell stocks when it’s the market’s enemy (hiking rates). And over the past year and change, the Fed has been the stock market’s public enemy No. 1. Will the Fed Ever Be Done With Rate Hikes?Since March 2022, the Fed has hiked rates 10 consecutive times – including four jumbo 75-basis-point hikes – in what has been the most aggressive and rapid rate-hiking campaign ever. It should be no surprise that stocks have slumped since then. The Fed started hiking rates aggressively. Stocks started crashing. But over the past few months, things have started to shift. Throughout last year, the Fed was continually getting more aggressive with its policy stance. The rate hikes kept getting bigger. But in the last month of 2022, the central bank downshifted from a 75-basis-point hike to a 50-basis-point hike. In the first month of 2023, it downshifted again, this time to a “normal” 25-basis-point hike. And it’s stayed there ever since. In other words, starting in mid-December 2022, the Federal Reserve started to get less aggressive with its rate hikes. This means it started to become more friendly to the stock market. And what has happened since December 2022? Stocks have rallied. The S&P 500 is up more than 6% year-to-date, after falling about 20% in 2022. A graph showing the change in the S&P 500 since January 2023Again, that should be no surprise. It all comes back to the Fed. Over the past few months, it has become less aggressive with its monetary policy. Consequently, stocks have rallied. And that brings us to yesterday.Yesterday, the Fed hiked rates by 25 basis points, continuing the trend it established in December 2022. However, in the press release that announced the rate hike, the Fed omitted certain words and phrases that were in every rate-hike press release since March 2022. They served to signal to the market that more rate hikes were coming. By omitting them from this month’s release, the Fed is implicitly signaling that no more rate hikes are coming. In fact, Fed Board Chair Jerome Powell confirmed as much in his press conference yesterday. He explicitly said that the omission of these phrases was “meaningful.” Take from that what you will. To me, the implication is obvious. The Final WordLet’s go back to our golden rule of the stock market. When the Fed becomes less friendly toward markets, sell stocks. When the Fed becomes more friendly toward markets, buy stocks. The Federal Reserve is about to take a massive step to become more friendly to markets by stopping its rate-hike campaign in June. You know what happens to stocks when the Fed pauses a rate-hike campaignAs you can see in the chart below, they rally. Every time. A graph showing the change in the Fed's target rate and the S&P 500 over timeIn other words, I’m writing to you today to deliver three crystal-clear messages:The Fed just signaled it will pause its rate-hike campaign next month. Since 1980, every single “Fed Pause” has sparked a stock market rally. Every single one. In those “Pause” rallies, tech stocks tend to be the biggest winners, posting average returns of about 30% in a year. The implication? It’s time to buy tech stocks. I see a big tech-driven stock market rally just around the corner. I also believe certain tech stocks are going to soar 100%-plus in that rally.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":244,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":124615652,"gmtCreate":1624762009876,"gmtModify":1703844641034,"author":{"id":"3558396283993528","authorId":"3558396283993528","name":"ThomasW","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8372efea1839b36860d65bfb69ba31a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3558396283993528","idStr":"3558396283993528"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Apple to 137?","listText":"Apple to 137?","text":"Apple to 137?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/124615652","repostId":"1108941456","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1108941456","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624664800,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1108941456?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-26 07:46","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is Apple A Better Buy Than Other FAANG Stocks?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1108941456","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Apple undoubtedly is a great company, with a strong brand, excellent margins, and fundamentals, a fortress balance sheet, and massive shareholder returns.Being a great company does not mean that the stock must be a great buy.

These companies do, however, differ quite a lot from each other in a range of metrics, including growth, valuation, and there are also differences when it comes to each company's specific risks and moat. Apple is the largest company of these in terms of profits and market capitalization, but that does not necessarily make it the best investment. In this report, we will take a look at how Apple compares versus the other FAANG members.</p>\n<p><b>Are FAANG Stocks A Good Investment?</b></p>\n<p>Looking back a couple of years, the answer is pretty clear that FAANG stocks at least<i>were</i>a good investment in the recent past:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae2b8e2b9caf99f74c28bafc10a0a872\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"484\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>With gains of 200% to 460%, these five companies easily trounced the broad market's returns over the same time, and all led to hefty gains, at least tripling an investor's money in just five years. The factors that led to these strong gains do, at least partially, still exist today. Notably, these five companies are generating compelling earnings growth, have leadership positions in the markets they address, possess strong brands that are well-received by consumers, and seem to have strong, long-term-oriented leadership teams.</p>\n<p>These factors are still in place today, which indicates that FAANG stocks could also be good investments in coming years, although investors should, even with high-quality companies, also consider a stock's valuation. Today, these companies do not look extremely cheap in most cases:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2ef865eea7af4369048432a9c85d1d83\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"540\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>At 26-64x this year's expected net profits, FAANG stocks can't really be called bargains, although the above-average valuations are, at least to some degree, justified due to the above-average earnings growth that these companies do generate. In any case, I doubt that investors owning FAANG stocks today will see 200%-400%+ returns over the next five years, as this seems unlikely for each of these five stocks due to the combination of current valuations and expected earnings growth. This does, however, not mean that FAANG stocks must be bad investments or underperform the market. In fact, in recent articles, I showcased that solid or even quite attractive returns can be expected from&nbsp;Facebook,Amazon, and Apple, even though the 30%-50% annual returns are likely a thing of the past - that's just mathematics, as no stock can grow at that rate forever.</p>\n<p><b>What Investors Can Expect From Apple</b></p>\n<p>Apple Inc. is not the highest-growth FAANG stock at all. Its growth has been solid but not spectacular in the recent past. This isn't a large surprise, as there is only a certain number of consumers that want to buy an iPhone or an iPad, and that amount can't grow by 50% a year for a very long time. Nevertheless, due to some market growth, some price increases, and growth from its services business, Apple should still be able to deliver sizeable revenue growth in the long run. New products such as the car project are a potential wildcard, but at least for the foreseeable future, this will not be a major profit center for the company. Apple also has a very ambitious shareholder return program, and its buybacks are an important factor for its future earnings per share growth. I believe that, overall, a high-single-digit earnings per share growth rate will be very much achievable for Apple in the long run. Combined with some multiple depression that I expect in coming years, as Apple will likely not trade at a high-20s earnings multiple forever, this gets me to a total return estimate&nbsp;in the 7% range. This is significantly less compared to what investors saw over the last couple of years, but on the other hand, 7% annual returns stemming from a strong, stable blue-chip stock such as Apple are not unattractive. I believe that some of the FAANG stocks could deliver stronger returns, primarily Alphabet and Facebook.</p>\n<p><b>Apple Versus Facebook</b></p>\n<p>Both Apple Inc. and Facebook have a great market position, but Facebook is even more dominant in its industry compared to Apple. Apple has, in the smartphone industry, a market share of around 20%, although more in the higher-end segments. Facebook, for comparison, owns four out of the top five social media networks, with Facebook, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, and WhatsApp. Clearly, FB absolutely dominates its industry. Facebook's industry is also growing quicker than the hardware IT markets that Apple serves, which is why Facebook's growth was significantly higher than Apple's growth in the recent past:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8fd8043ca75dcb2c38f5ffa427c8c0b9\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Facebook grew its revenue by well above 300% over the last five years, while Apple's revenue grew by a little less than 50%. When we look back at the total return chart at the beginning of this article and compare it to this revenue chart, we see that Apple's returns stemmed from multiple expansion to a large degree, whereas Facebook's stock actually got less expensive over the last five years. Facebook's business growth clearly outpaced its share price gains, which has made its shares less expensive. This also explains why Facebook, today, trades below the long-term median earnings multiple, whereas Apple's valuation is at the higher end of the historic range:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d3d49e0007aa77608b2992a9fef2142d\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"481\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>The fact that Facebook trades at a historic discount points to a solid entry price, whereas the same can't be said about Apple. On top of that, Facebook will also grow much faster in the future - at least if the analyst community is correct:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6b16c9b3e2eac182d42686bcd8a98fc5\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"515\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>While Apple is expected to see revenue growth of around 10% over the next two years, Facebook is expected to grow by 40% over the same time. Facebook's earnings per share growth estimate is also materially higher than that of Apple.</p>\n<p>To sum things up, we can say that Facebook is growing much faster, is even more dominant in its industry compared to Apple, and its shares are trading at a discount compared to the historic average, whereas Apple's shares are historically expensive. This combination makes me believe that the total return outlook for Facebook is better compared to that of Apple.</p>\n<p><b>Apple Versus Alphabet</b></p>\n<p>When we compare Apple to Alphabet, the comparison is relatively similar to what we just saw when comparing Applet to Facebook. Alphabet is a company that is growing quicker than Apple, and that can, to a large degree, be explained by its great market position and the higher market growth rate. Online advertising is a market that has been growing quicker than the tablet or smartphone market in recent years, and the same will, I believe, be true in the foreseeable future as well.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6360514d097081c546a0ccacfbdc7af6\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Alphabet is forecasted to grow its revenue by more than 30% over the next two years, versus Apple's 10% growth. On top of that, at close to 20%, Alphabet is also expected to grow its earnings per share at a higher rate.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, despite its significantly better growth forecast, Alphabet isn't a lot more expensive compared to Apple. GOOG trades at 29x forward earnings, versus AAPL's 26x forward earnings multiple. Does it make sense for GOOG to trade at a premium of just 10%, while its expected growth is one and a half times as high as that of AAPL? You be the judge, but to me, it seems like the valuation looks better at Alphabet as long as we account for the stronger growth expectations. On top of that, with a net cash position of around $120 billion, Alphabet also has one of the best balance sheets in the world. Apple, for comparison, has a somewhat<i>smaller</i>net cash position of $80 billion, although that still makes for a very strong balance sheet, of course.</p>\n<p>All in all, we can summarize that Alphabet is growing faster today, is expected to grow significantly faster in the next two years and in the long run, has an even better balance sheet and a more dominant market position, and yet it trades at an earnings multiple that is only 10% higher than that of Apple. To me, Alphabet thus looks like the more attractive pick among these two at current prices.</p>\n<p><b>Apple Versus Netflix And Amazon</b></p>\n<p>Looking at the last two remaining companies in the FAANG group, we see that, once again, AAPL is growing at a slower pace. Unless Facebook and Alphabet, however, both Netflix and Amazon are way more expensive than Apple.</p>\n<p>This huge valuation premium offsets, at least to some degree, the higher expected growth, which is why I believe that Netflix and Amazon do not really seem like much better picks compared to Apple:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6ccc2536fa3cadf06639a89e0b211b9a\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"481\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>AMZN and NFLX trade at PEG ratios of 1.8 and 1.9, which does not represent a clear discount compared to AAPL's valuation. On top of that, these two companies do not possess balance sheets that are as strong as that of Apple.</p>\n<p>Netflix, especially, looks significantly worse compared to the other FAANG members in terms of balance sheet strength and cash generation:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9d84f013051fbb00b6b488f5cfed66d4\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Netflix is the only FAANG member with a meaningful net debt position, and its free cash flows are equal to just 1% of its market capitalization. Netflix grows fast, but to me, it seems doubtful whether the current valuation is justified. Considering that more and more companies are pushing into the streaming market, including Disney (DIS), Amazon, and AT&amp;T(NYSE:T), more competition might hurt Netflix's margins in the future. NFLX thus seems like the worst pick among the five FAANG stocks to me, as it combines a high valuation, weak cash flows, and a somewhat uncertain competitive picture, and I think that is not fully negated by its strong growth alone.</p>\n<p>Amazon has a better market position than Netflix, a better balance sheet, and its valuation, relative to its growth, is a little lower than that of Netflix. I would rate Amazon as more or less equally attractive to Apple, although the two companies are quite different from each other in terms of growth, valuation, and shareholder returns.</p>\n<p><b>Which Is The Best FAANG Stock To Buy?</b></p>\n<p>Not every investor has the same goals, thus the answer may be different depending on what you are looking for in a stock. To me, Apple seems like a solid, but outstanding pick at current prices - the business undoubtedly is strong, the balance sheet is great, shareholder returns are hefty, but the valuation seems stretched, especially when we consider how cheap shares were in the past.</p>\n<p>Alphabet and Facebook do seem like the best FAANG picks to me today, as they combine strong growth with valuations that are only marginally higher than that of Apple.

However, valuations are significantly higher than they were historically.\nI believe that some of the other FAANG stocks are better, while others are worse. AAPL seems like a solid, but not a spectacular investment at today's valuation.\n\nMagioreStock/iStock Editorial via Getty Images\nArticle Thesis\nGoing with FAANG stocks, i.e. Facebook (FB), Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), Netflix (NFLX), and Alphabet (GOOG)(GOOGL), has been a winning trade in recent years, as those companies delivered strong gains for their owners. These companies do, however, differ quite a lot from each other in a range of metrics, including growth, valuation, and there are also differences when it comes to each company's specific risks and moat. Apple is the largest company of these in terms of profits and market capitalization, but that does not necessarily make it the best investment. In this report, we will take a look at how Apple compares versus the other FAANG members.\nAre FAANG Stocks A Good Investment?\nLooking back a couple of years, the answer is pretty clear that FAANG stocks at leastwerea good investment in the recent past:\nData by YCharts\nWith gains of 200% to 460%, these five companies easily trounced the broad market's returns over the same time, and all led to hefty gains, at least tripling an investor's money in just five years. The factors that led to these strong gains do, at least partially, still exist today. Notably, these five companies are generating compelling earnings growth, have leadership positions in the markets they address, possess strong brands that are well-received by consumers, and seem to have strong, long-term-oriented leadership teams.\nThese factors are still in place today, which indicates that FAANG stocks could also be good investments in coming years, although investors should, even with high-quality companies, also consider a stock's valuation. Today, these companies do not look extremely cheap in most cases:\nData by YCharts\nAt 26-64x this year's expected net profits, FAANG stocks can't really be called bargains, although the above-average valuations are, at least to some degree, justified due to the above-average earnings growth that these companies do generate. In any case, I doubt that investors owning FAANG stocks today will see 200%-400%+ returns over the next five years, as this seems unlikely for each of these five stocks due to the combination of current valuations and expected earnings growth. This does, however, not mean that FAANG stocks must be bad investments or underperform the market. In fact, in recent articles, I showcased that solid or even quite attractive returns can be expected from Facebook,Amazon, and Apple, even though the 30%-50% annual returns are likely a thing of the past - that's just mathematics, as no stock can grow at that rate forever.\nWhat Investors Can Expect From Apple\nApple Inc. is not the highest-growth FAANG stock at all. Its growth has been solid but not spectacular in the recent past. This isn't a large surprise, as there is only a certain number of consumers that want to buy an iPhone or an iPad, and that amount can't grow by 50% a year for a very long time. Nevertheless, due to some market growth, some price increases, and growth from its services business, Apple should still be able to deliver sizeable revenue growth in the long run. New products such as the car project are a potential wildcard, but at least for the foreseeable future, this will not be a major profit center for the company. Apple also has a very ambitious shareholder return program, and its buybacks are an important factor for its future earnings per share growth. I believe that, overall, a high-single-digit earnings per share growth rate will be very much achievable for Apple in the long run. Combined with some multiple depression that I expect in coming years, as Apple will likely not trade at a high-20s earnings multiple forever, this gets me to a total return estimate in the 7% range. This is significantly less compared to what investors saw over the last couple of years, but on the other hand, 7% annual returns stemming from a strong, stable blue-chip stock such as Apple are not unattractive. I believe that some of the FAANG stocks could deliver stronger returns, primarily Alphabet and Facebook.\nApple Versus Facebook\nBoth Apple Inc. and Facebook have a great market position, but Facebook is even more dominant in its industry compared to Apple. Apple has, in the smartphone industry, a market share of around 20%, although more in the higher-end segments. Facebook, for comparison, owns four out of the top five social media networks, with Facebook, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, and WhatsApp. Clearly, FB absolutely dominates its industry. Facebook's industry is also growing quicker than the hardware IT markets that Apple serves, which is why Facebook's growth was significantly higher than Apple's growth in the recent past:\nData by YCharts\nFacebook grew its revenue by well above 300% over the last five years, while Apple's revenue grew by a little less than 50%. When we look back at the total return chart at the beginning of this article and compare it to this revenue chart, we see that Apple's returns stemmed from multiple expansion to a large degree, whereas Facebook's stock actually got less expensive over the last five years. Facebook's business growth clearly outpaced its share price gains, which has made its shares less expensive. This also explains why Facebook, today, trades below the long-term median earnings multiple, whereas Apple's valuation is at the higher end of the historic range:\nData by YCharts\nThe fact that Facebook trades at a historic discount points to a solid entry price, whereas the same can't be said about Apple. On top of that, Facebook will also grow much faster in the future - at least if the analyst community is correct:\nData by YCharts\nWhile Apple is expected to see revenue growth of around 10% over the next two years, Facebook is expected to grow by 40% over the same time. Facebook's earnings per share growth estimate is also materially higher than that of Apple.\nTo sum things up, we can say that Facebook is growing much faster, is even more dominant in its industry compared to Apple, and its shares are trading at a discount compared to the historic average, whereas Apple's shares are historically expensive. This combination makes me believe that the total return outlook for Facebook is better compared to that of Apple.\nApple Versus Alphabet\nWhen we compare Apple to Alphabet, the comparison is relatively similar to what we just saw when comparing Applet to Facebook. Alphabet is a company that is growing quicker than Apple, and that can, to a large degree, be explained by its great market position and the higher market growth rate. Online advertising is a market that has been growing quicker than the tablet or smartphone market in recent years, and the same will, I believe, be true in the foreseeable future as well.\nData by YCharts\nAlphabet is forecasted to grow its revenue by more than 30% over the next two years, versus Apple's 10% growth. On top of that, at close to 20%, Alphabet is also expected to grow its earnings per share at a higher rate.\nNevertheless, despite its significantly better growth forecast, Alphabet isn't a lot more expensive compared to Apple. GOOG trades at 29x forward earnings, versus AAPL's 26x forward earnings multiple. Does it make sense for GOOG to trade at a premium of just 10%, while its expected growth is one and a half times as high as that of AAPL? You be the judge, but to me, it seems like the valuation looks better at Alphabet as long as we account for the stronger growth expectations. On top of that, with a net cash position of around $120 billion, Alphabet also has one of the best balance sheets in the world. Apple, for comparison, has a somewhatsmallernet cash position of $80 billion, although that still makes for a very strong balance sheet, of course.\nAll in all, we can summarize that Alphabet is growing faster today, is expected to grow significantly faster in the next two years and in the long run, has an even better balance sheet and a more dominant market position, and yet it trades at an earnings multiple that is only 10% higher than that of Apple. To me, Alphabet thus looks like the more attractive pick among these two at current prices.\nApple Versus Netflix And Amazon\nLooking at the last two remaining companies in the FAANG group, we see that, once again, AAPL is growing at a slower pace. Unless Facebook and Alphabet, however, both Netflix and Amazon are way more expensive than Apple.\nThis huge valuation premium offsets, at least to some degree, the higher expected growth, which is why I believe that Netflix and Amazon do not really seem like much better picks compared to Apple:\nData by YCharts\nAMZN and NFLX trade at PEG ratios of 1.8 and 1.9, which does not represent a clear discount compared to AAPL's valuation. On top of that, these two companies do not possess balance sheets that are as strong as that of Apple.\nNetflix, especially, looks significantly worse compared to the other FAANG members in terms of balance sheet strength and cash generation:\nData by YCharts\nNetflix is the only FAANG member with a meaningful net debt position, and its free cash flows are equal to just 1% of its market capitalization. Netflix grows fast, but to me, it seems doubtful whether the current valuation is justified. Considering that more and more companies are pushing into the streaming market, including Disney (DIS), Amazon, and AT&T(NYSE:T), more competition might hurt Netflix's margins in the future. NFLX thus seems like the worst pick among the five FAANG stocks to me, as it combines a high valuation, weak cash flows, and a somewhat uncertain competitive picture, and I think that is not fully negated by its strong growth alone.\nAmazon has a better market position than Netflix, a better balance sheet, and its valuation, relative to its growth, is a little lower than that of Netflix. I would rate Amazon as more or less equally attractive to Apple, although the two companies are quite different from each other in terms of growth, valuation, and shareholder returns.\nWhich Is The Best FAANG Stock To Buy?\nNot every investor has the same goals, thus the answer may be different depending on what you are looking for in a stock. To me, Apple seems like a solid, but outstanding pick at current prices - the business undoubtedly is strong, the balance sheet is great, shareholder returns are hefty, but the valuation seems stretched, especially when we consider how cheap shares were in the past.\nAlphabet and Facebook do seem like the best FAANG picks to me today, as they combine strong growth with valuations that are only marginally higher than that of Apple. On top of that, both Alphabet and Facebook dominate their markets. Amazon is a stock that I would rate as a solid investment at today's price, so more or less in line with AAPL, whereas Netflix seems like the weakest pick among these five to me.\nDepending on your time horizon, appetite for risk, etc. you may disagree, however - and that's perfectly fine.
