The Class B stock is in the S&amp;P 500 index.</p><p>In recent weeks, however, trading in the Class A shares has been elevated at an average of more than 2,000 shares a day—and 2,500 a day in past five sessions—against an average of fewer than 500 shares daily in 2020. The difference translates into about $800 million of additional daily trades in the Class A stock.

With the recent buying activity in the A stock, it ended Friday at a roughly 0.5% premium to the B shares, against virtual parity at year-end 2020.</p><p>There are few sizable holders of the Class A stock besides Buffett. Fidelity parent FMR is the only other owner of more than 5%. Much of the Fidelity stake is held by Fidelity Contrafund (FCNTX), whose manager, Will Danoff, is a longtime Berkshire fan and holder.</p><p>Buffett discussed the Class A and Class B stock in a 1999 memo to Berkshire holders that was last updated in 2010.</p><p>Here’s what Buffett wrote:</p><blockquote>When there is more demand for the B (relative to supply) than for the A, the B will sell at roughly 1/1,500th of the price of A. When there’s a lesser demand, it will fall to a discount. In my opinion, most of the time, the demand for the B will be such that it will trade at about 1/1,500th of the price of the A.</blockquote><blockquote>However, from time to time, a different supply-demand situation will prevail and the B will sell at some discount. In my opinion, again, when the B is at a discount of more than say, 1%, it offers a better buy than the A. When the two are at parity, however, anyone wishing to buy 1,500 or more B should consider buying A instead.</blockquote>","source":"lsy1601382232898","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Berkshire Hathaway Class A Shares Have Become More Actively Traded.

With the recent buying activity in the A stock, it ended Friday at a roughly 0.5% premium to the B shares, against virtual parity at year-end 2020.There are few sizable holders of the Class A stock besides Buffett. Fidelity parent FMR is the only other owner of more than 5%. Much of the Fidelity stake is held by Fidelity Contrafund (FCNTX), whose manager, Will Danoff, is a longtime Berkshire fan and holder.Buffett discussed the Class A and Class B stock in a 1999 memo to Berkshire holders that was last updated in 2010.Here’s what Buffett wrote:When there is more demand for the B (relative to supply) than for the A, the B will sell at roughly 1/1,500th of the price of A. When there’s a lesser demand, it will fall to a discount. In my opinion, most of the time, the demand for the B will be such that it will trade at about 1/1,500th of the price of the A.However, from time to time, a different supply-demand situation will prevail and the B will sell at some discount. In my opinion, again, when the B is at a discount of more than say, 1%, it offers a better buy than the A. When the two are at parity, however, anyone wishing to buy 1,500 or more B should consider buying A instead.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":94,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":329571040,"gmtCreate":1615263738180,"gmtModify":1704780297945,"author":{"id":"3558558240660669","authorId":"3558558240660669","name":"tokming","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558558240660669","authorIdStr":"3558558240660669"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/329571040","repostId":"1143436063","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":141,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":329573671,"gmtCreate":1615263712093,"gmtModify":1704780297460,"author":{"id":"3558558240660669","authorId":"3558558240660669","name":"tokming","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558558240660669","authorIdStr":"3558558240660669"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/329573671","repostId":"1143436063","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":165,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":329573072,"gmtCreate":1615263681396,"gmtModify":1704780296976,"author":{"id":"3558558240660669","authorId":"3558558240660669","name":"tokming","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558558240660669","authorIdStr":"3558558240660669"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/329573072","repostId":"1143436063","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1143436063","pubTimestamp":1615262794,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1143436063?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-09 12:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"China State Funds Buy Stocks to Stem Worsening Rout","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1143436063","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"(Bloomberg) -- Chinese state-backed funds were said to intervene on Tuesday to alleviate declines in","content":"<p>(Bloomberg) -- Chinese state-backed funds were said to intervene on Tuesday to alleviate declines in the stock market, a sign that the rout had gone too far for policy makers.</p><p>The funds, known as China’s “national team,” stepped in to ensure stability during the government’s key policy meeting in Beijing, according to people familiar with the matter.

A highly anticipated direct listing for the video game company Roblox is also on deck.</p><p>On Wednesday, the Labor Department will release its monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI), which tracks changes in prices for consumers across a broad basket of goods and services. Consensus economists anticipate that the CPI accelerated to see a 0.4% month-over-month increase in February, up from the 0.3% monthly rise in January, according to Bloomberg-compiled data.</p><p>Over last year, the CPI likely rose by 1.7%, picking up from the 1.4% rise in January. But excluding more volatile food and energy prices, the CPI is expected to have risen 1.4% year-over-year to match its January increase, since a jump in energy prices during the harsh winter weather last month likely contributed much of the gain.</p><p>Still, the possibility of an upside surprise in consumer prices gains has left investors jittery, with many market participants bracing for inflationary pressures to pick up rapidly later this year as more businesses reopen and many consumers start to release their pent-up savings during the pandemic.</p><p>\"If our forecast is correct, February would mark the beginning of a reversal of COVID-induced relative price changes. That would imply goods prices might decline but service prices might increase in coming months, as consumer demand shifts back to services requiring personal contact,\" Nomura chief economist Lewis Alexander wrote in a note Friday.</p><p>\"We expect relative price changes between goods and services to exert modest inflationary pressure going forward,\" he added. \"However, the persistent softness of rent inflation should limit the degree of acceleration in core inflation for some time, with the exception of an expected jump in year-on-year changes due to base effects.\"</p><p><img src=\"https://s.yimg.com/os/creatr-images/2020-04/0eb92cc0-8a43-11ea-ad7b-c4ef6d70b12d\" tg-width=\"5184\" tg-height=\"3456\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell holds a press conference following a two day Federal Open Market Committee policy meeting in Washington, U.S., January 30, 2019. REUTERS/Leah Millis TPX IMAGES OF THE DAYLeah Millis / Reuters</p><p>Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has reiterated repeatedly that he believes any impending rise in inflation this year will be \"transitory,\" resulting as the year-over-year data laps 2020's highly depressed inflationary prints. For years preceding the pandemic, inflation had held well below the Fed's 2% target, as measured by core personal consumption expenditures (PCE). The Fed has signaled the economy remains \"well below\" its targets, suggesting it would not change its policy stance or work to stave off the first signs of rising inflation.</p><p>But investors' fears that the Fed may be under appreciating a possible surge in inflation has begun to mount in recent weeks. Those concerns have only grown in amplitude as Congress passes additional stimulus to consumers, and as the Federal Reserve keeps its foot on the gas pedal with ultra-accommodative monetary policy comprising near-zero interest rates and a massive asset purchase program. The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield surged to a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-year high of about 1.6%, jumping by more than 50 basis points from levels a month earlier, as investors priced in the possibility that the Fed may need to tighten policy sooner than it has telegraphed as of late.</p><p>\"It is the inflation profile once reopening begins in earnest that should be of most interest,\" RBC Capital Markets economists wrote in a note Friday. \"The reality is that we are likely still a few months away from a significant supply/demand imbalance that is likely to take prices much higher.\"</p><p>\"Our baseline is for inflation to easily print with a 3-handle in 2Q and for the balance of 2021 thereafter,\" he added.</p><p><b>Roblox hits the public markets</b></p><p>Meanwhile, the video game company Roblox is set to make its public debut this week, in <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the latest high-profile, public facing companies to hit the public markets.</p><p>Roblox's direct listing is set to take place on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday under the ticker symbol \"RBLX.\" The move comes after the company delayed its public offering late last year amid a wave of exuberance in markets following Airbnb's (ABNB) and DoorDash's (DASH) IPOs.</p><p>By going public via a direct listing, Roblox will have existing stakeholders sell shares directly to public investors, rather than issuing new shares and conducting a fresh capital raise in the process as is the case in a traditional initial public offering. Companies including Spotify (SPOT) and Slack (WORK) also went public in recent years via direct listings, eschewing the typical IPO.</p><p>Roblox was last valued in the private market at $4 billion, following a $150 million funding round led by the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz in February last year.</p><p>Roblox daily active users have accelerated over the past couple years, and especially so during the pandemic with so many people stuck indoors and seeking out entertainment. Daily active users on Roblox grew by 85% to 32.6 million in 2020, accelerating from a 47% growth rate in 2019. Users' hours engaged also more than doubled to 30.6 billion last year.</p><p>That user growth has translated to major revenue growth for the 17-year-old company, which increased by 82% to about $924 million last year. Net losses have also widened, however, increasing from $71 million to about $253.3 million from 2019 to 2020.</p><p><img src=\"https://s.yimg.com/os/creatr-uploaded-images/2021-01/2994b2e0-500d-11eb-bff0-d79b8e34795e\" tg-width=\"5472\" tg-height=\"3648\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Alice Wilkinson (7) adds a face mask to her character on the game 'Roblox' at her home in Manchester, as the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) continues, Manchester, Britain, April 5, 2020. REUTERS/Phil NoblePhil Noble / reuters</p><p>As a beneficiary of 2020's stay-in-place orders, Roblox has already acknowledged that it's meteoric growth rates will likely not be sustained going forward.</p><p>\"We have experienced rapid growth in the three months ended June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020, December 31, 2020, and for a portion of the three months ended March 31, 2020, due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic given our users have been online more as a result of global COVID-19 shelter-in-place policies,\" the company said in a February 22 filing. \"For example, our bookings increased 171% from the year ended December 31, 2019 to the year ended December 31, 2020. We do not expect these activity levels to be sustained, and in future periods we expect growth rates for our revenue to decline, and we may not experience any growth in bookings or our user base during periods where we are comparing against COVID-19 impacted periods.\"</p><p>Roblox also recently issued guidance for the first and second quarters of this year, or for the three months ending in March and June, respectively. For the first quarter, daily active users may grow as much as 68% to 39.6 million, and revenue could grow as much as 85% to $335 million. For the second quarter, however, daily active user growth will likely grow as much as only 9% over last year, though revenue could still likely rise by as much as 86%, Roblox said.</p><p><b>Economic Calendar</b></p><ul><li><p><b>Monday: </b>Wholesale inventories, month-over-month, January final (1.3% expected, 1.3% in December)</p></li><li><p><b>Tuesday: </b>NFIB Small Business Optimism, February (96.3 expected, 95.0 in January)</p></li><li><p><b>Wednesday: </b>MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended March 5 (0.5% during prior week);

REUTERS/Leah Millis TPX IMAGES OF THE DAYLeah Millis / ReutersFederal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has reiterated repeatedly that he believes any impending rise in inflation this year will be \"transitory,\" resulting as the year-over-year data laps 2020's highly depressed inflationary prints. For years preceding the pandemic, inflation had held well below the Fed's 2% target, as measured by core personal consumption expenditures (PCE). The Fed has signaled the economy remains \"well below\" its targets, suggesting it would not change its policy stance or work to stave off the first signs of rising inflation.But investors' fears that the Fed may be under appreciating a possible surge in inflation has begun to mount in recent weeks. Those concerns have only grown in amplitude as Congress passes additional stimulus to consumers, and as the Federal Reserve keeps its foot on the gas pedal with ultra-accommodative monetary policy comprising near-zero interest rates and a massive asset purchase program. The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield surged to a one-year high of about 1.6%, jumping by more than 50 basis points from levels a month earlier, as investors priced in the possibility that the Fed may need to tighten policy sooner than it has telegraphed as of late.\"It is the inflation profile once reopening begins in earnest that should be of most interest,\" RBC Capital Markets economists wrote in a note Friday. \"The reality is that we are likely still a few months away from a significant supply/demand imbalance that is likely to take prices much higher.\"\"Our baseline is for inflation to easily print with a 3-handle in 2Q and for the balance of 2021 thereafter,\" he added.Roblox hits the public marketsMeanwhile, the video game company Roblox is set to make its public debut this week, in one of the latest high-profile, public facing companies to hit the public markets.Roblox's direct listing is set to take place on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday under the ticker symbol \"RBLX.\" The move comes after the company delayed its public offering late last year amid a wave of exuberance in markets following Airbnb's (ABNB) and DoorDash's (DASH) IPOs.By going public via a direct listing, Roblox will have existing stakeholders sell shares directly to public investors, rather than issuing new shares and conducting a fresh capital raise in the process as is the case in a traditional initial public offering. Companies including Spotify (SPOT) and Slack (WORK) also went public in recent years via direct listings, eschewing the typical IPO.Roblox was last valued in the private market at $4 billion, following a $150 million funding round led by the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz in February last year.Roblox daily active users have accelerated over the past couple years, and especially so during the pandemic with so many people stuck indoors and seeking out entertainment. Daily active users on Roblox grew by 85% to 32.6 million in 2020, accelerating from a 47% growth rate in 2019. Users' hours engaged also more than doubled to 30.6 billion last year.That user growth has translated to major revenue growth for the 17-year-old company, which increased by 82% to about $924 million last year. Net losses have also widened, however, increasing from $71 million to about $253.3 million from 2019 to 2020.Alice Wilkinson (7) adds a face mask to her character on the game 'Roblox' at her home in Manchester, as the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) continues, Manchester, Britain, April 5, 2020. REUTERS/Phil NoblePhil Noble / reutersAs a beneficiary of 2020's stay-in-place orders, Roblox has already acknowledged that it's meteoric growth rates will likely not be sustained going forward.\"We have experienced rapid growth in the three months ended June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020, December 31, 2020, and for a portion of the three months ended March 31, 2020, due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic given our users have been online more as a result of global COVID-19 shelter-in-place policies,\" the company said in a February 22 filing. \"For example, our bookings increased 171% from the year ended December 31, 2019 to the year ended December 31, 2020. We do not expect these activity levels to be sustained, and in future periods we expect growth rates for our revenue to decline, and we may not experience any growth in bookings or our user base during periods where we are comparing against COVID-19 impacted periods.\"Roblox also recently issued guidance for the first and second quarters of this year, or for the three months ending in March and June, respectively. For the first quarter, daily active users may grow as much as 68% to 39.6 million, and revenue could grow as much as 85% to $335 million. For the second quarter, however, daily active user growth will likely grow as much as only 9% over last year, though revenue could still likely rise by as much as 86%, Roblox said.Economic CalendarMonday: Wholesale inventories, month-over-month, January final (1.3% expected, 1.3% in December)Tuesday: NFIB Small Business Optimism, February (96.3 expected, 95.0 in January)Wednesday: MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended March 5 (0.5% during prior week); Consumer Price Index, month-over-month, February (0.4% expected, 0.3% in January); Consumer Price Index excluding food and energy, month-over-month, February (0.2% expected, 0.0% in January); Consumer Price Index year-over-year, February (1.7% expected, 1.4% in January); Consumer Price Index excluding food and energy, year-over-year (1.4% expected, 1.4% in January); Monthly Budget Statement, February (-$162.8 billion in January)Thursday: Initial jobless claims, week ended March 6 (725,000 expected, 745,000 during prior week); Continuing claims, week ended February 27 (4.180 million expected, 4.295 million during prior week); JOLTS job openings, January (6.600 million expected, 6.646 million in December); Household change in net worth, 4Q ($3.817 trillion in 3Q)Friday: Producer price index, month-over-month, February (0.4% expected, 1.3% in January); Producer price index excluding food and energy, month-over-month, February (0.2% expected, 1.2% in January); Producer price index year-over-year, February (2.7% expected, 1.7% in January); Producer price index excluding food and energy, year-over-year (2.6% expected, 2.0% in January); University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment, March preliminary (78.0 expected, 76.8 in February)Earnings CalendarMonday: StitchFix (SFIX), ContextLogic (WISH) after market closeTuesday: MongoDB (MDB) after market closeWednesday: Bumble (BMBL), Oracle (ORCL), AMC Entertainment (AMC) after market closeThursday: DocuSign (DOCU), Ulta (ULTA), Poshmark (POSH) after market closeFriday: N/A","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":203,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":320763513,"gmtCreate":1615178546732,"gmtModify":1704779162918,"author":{"id":"3558558240660669","authorId":"3558558240660669","name":"tokming","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558558240660669","authorIdStr":"3558558240660669"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/320763513","repostId":"2117651365","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2117651365","pubTimestamp":1615125354,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2117651365?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-07 21:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Roblox goes public, inflation data: What to know in the week ahead","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2117651365","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"This week, investors will be eyeing new inflation data, which will offer a look at whether prices ha","content":"<p>This week, investors will be eyeing new inflation data, which will offer a look at whether prices have already begun to creep up as some have feared ahead of a major economic reopening.

Those concerns have only grown in amplitude as Congress passes additional stimulus to consumers, and as the Federal Reserve keeps its foot on the gas pedal with ultra-accommodative monetary policy comprising near-zero interest rates and a massive asset purchase program. The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield surged to a one-year high of about 1.6%, jumping by more than 50 basis points from levels a month earlier, as investors priced in the possibility that the Fed may need to tighten policy sooner than it has telegraphed as of late.\"It is the inflation profile once reopening begins in earnest that should be of most interest,\" RBC Capital Markets economists wrote in a note Friday. \"The reality is that we are likely still a few months away from a significant supply/demand imbalance that is likely to take prices much higher.\"\"Our baseline is for inflation to easily print with a 3-handle in 2Q and for the balance of 2021 thereafter,\" he added.Roblox hits the public marketsMeanwhile, the video game company Roblox is set to make its public debut this week, in one of the latest high-profile, public facing companies to hit the public markets.Roblox's direct listing is set to take place on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday under the ticker symbol \"RBLX.\" The move comes after the company delayed its public offering late last year amid a wave of exuberance in markets following Airbnb's (ABNB) and DoorDash's (DASH) IPOs.By going public via a direct listing, Roblox will have existing stakeholders sell shares directly to public investors, rather than issuing new shares and conducting a fresh capital raise in the process as is the case in a traditional initial public offering. Companies including Spotify (SPOT) and Slack (WORK) also went public in recent years via direct listings, eschewing the typical IPO.Roblox was last valued in the private market at $4 billion, following a $150 million funding round led by the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz in February last year.Roblox daily active users have accelerated over the past couple years, and especially so during the pandemic with so many people stuck indoors and seeking out entertainment. Daily active users on Roblox grew by 85% to 32.6 million in 2020, accelerating from a 47% growth rate in 2019. Users' hours engaged also more than doubled to 30.6 billion last year.That user growth has translated to major revenue growth for the 17-year-old company, which increased by 82% to about $924 million last year. Net losses have also widened, however, increasing from $71 million to about $253.3 million from 2019 to 2020.Alice Wilkinson (7) adds a face mask to her character on the game 'Roblox' at her home in Manchester, as the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) continues, Manchester, Britain, April 5, 2020. REUTERS/Phil NoblePhil Noble / reutersAs a beneficiary of 2020's stay-in-place orders, Roblox has already acknowledged that it's meteoric growth rates will likely not be sustained going forward.\"We have experienced rapid growth in the three months ended June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020, December 31, 2020, and for a portion of the three months ended March 31, 2020, due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic given our users have been online more as a result of global COVID-19 shelter-in-place policies,\" the company said in a February 22 filing. \"For example, our bookings increased 171% from the year ended December 31, 2019 to the year ended December 31, 2020. We do not expect these activity levels to be sustained, and in future periods we expect growth rates for our revenue to decline, and we may not experience any growth in bookings or our user base during periods where we are comparing against COVID-19 impacted periods.\"Roblox also recently issued guidance for the first and second quarters of this year, or for the three months ending in March and June, respectively. For the first quarter, daily active users may grow as much as 68% to 39.6 million, and revenue could grow as much as 85% to $335 million. For the second quarter, however, daily active user growth will likely grow as much as only 9% over last year, though revenue could still likely rise by as much as 86%, Roblox said.Economic CalendarMonday: Wholesale inventories, month-over-month, January final (1.3% expected, 1.3% in December)Tuesday: NFIB Small Business Optimism, February (96.3 expected, 95.0 in January)Wednesday: MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended March 5 (0.5% during prior week);

By that gauge, the S&P 500 is trading at its richest valuation since the tech bubble of the late 1990s and early 2000s, according to Bank of America strategist Savita Subramanian.\n“We believe the discount is overdone, especially when the composition of the TSX is much better positioned to benefit from the global economic recovery, which we believe is intact,” she wrote.\n“We believe international stocks may be a better way to participate in the cyclical upswing, and Canada looks particularly attractive given its heavy exposure to cyclicals, commodities, and smaller caps, as well as its exposure to the U.S. economy that is leading the recovery,” Subramanian added.\nBank of America likes the TSX index for its greater exposure to energy and materials versus the S&P 500. Commodity sectors represent over 25% of the index compared to less than 6% of the S&P 500.\nThat bodes well for those with exposure to Canadian equities as the global recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic accelerates outside of the U.S. and fosters demand for the energy and agricultural commodities exported by Ottawa.\n“Follow the commodity cycle,” Subramanian advised her clients. “Despite a 46% surge in commodity prices [year over year], the TSX has underperformed the S&P 500 by more than 10 percentage points over the past 12 months.”\nThe implication is that, with Canada soon expected to see a sharp rise in its number of vaccinated residents, the gap between the TSX index and the S&P 500 could narrow.\nSome popular Canadian funds include theiShares MSCI Canada ETFand theBMO Low Volatility Canadian Equity ETF, up 21.8% and 15.2%, respectively, in 2021.\nDespite the overarching optimism on the country’s stocks, Subramanian noted that a slower-than-expected economic recovery in the U.S. or Canada would challenge her thesis.\nSo, too, could China’s recent announcement tomanage commodity inflationif Beijing continues to impose a cap on how much its traders are permitted to pay for various materials.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":194,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160445776,"gmtCreate":1623805335495,"gmtModify":1703819905379,"author":{"id":"3558558240660669","authorId":"3558558240660669","name":"tokming","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558558240660669","authorIdStr":"3558558240660669"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/160445776","repostId":"2143680537","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143680537","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":1623797252,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143680537?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 06:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street ends down as data spooks investors awaiting Fed report","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143680537","media":"Reuters","summary":"Wall Street’s main indices closed lower on Tuesday as data showing stronger inflation and weaker U.S. retail sales in May spooked already-jittery investors awaiting the results of the Federal Reserve’s latest policy meeting.Assurance from the Fed that rising prices are transitory and falling U.S. Treasury yields have helped ease some concerns over inflation and supported U.S. stocks in recent weeks.

A highly anticipated direct listing for the video game company Roblox is also on deck.</p><p>On Wednesday, the Labor Department will release its monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI), which tracks changes in prices for consumers across a broad basket of goods and services. Consensus economists anticipate that the CPI accelerated to see a 0.4% month-over-month increase in February, up from the 0.3% monthly rise in January, according to Bloomberg-compiled data.</p><p>Over last year, the CPI likely rose by 1.7%, picking up from the 1.4% rise in January. But excluding more volatile food and energy prices, the CPI is expected to have risen 1.4% year-over-year to match its January increase, since a jump in energy prices during the harsh winter weather last month likely contributed much of the gain.</p><p>Still, the possibility of an upside surprise in consumer prices gains has left investors jittery, with many market participants bracing for inflationary pressures to pick up rapidly later this year as more businesses reopen and many consumers start to release their pent-up savings during the pandemic.</p><p>\"If our forecast is correct, February would mark the beginning of a reversal of COVID-induced relative price changes. That would imply goods prices might decline but service prices might increase in coming months, as consumer demand shifts back to services requiring personal contact,\" Nomura chief economist Lewis Alexander wrote in a note Friday.</p><p>\"We expect relative price changes between goods and services to exert modest inflationary pressure going forward,\" he added. \"However, the persistent softness of rent inflation should limit the degree of acceleration in core inflation for some time, with the exception of an expected jump in year-on-year changes due to base effects.\"</p><p><img src=\"https://s.yimg.com/os/creatr-images/2020-04/0eb92cc0-8a43-11ea-ad7b-c4ef6d70b12d\" tg-width=\"5184\" tg-height=\"3456\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell holds a press conference following a two day Federal Open Market Committee policy meeting in Washington, U.S., January 30, 2019. REUTERS/Leah Millis TPX IMAGES OF THE DAYLeah Millis / Reuters</p><p>Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has reiterated repeatedly that he believes any impending rise in inflation this year will be \"transitory,\" resulting as the year-over-year data laps 2020's highly depressed inflationary prints. For years preceding the pandemic, inflation had held well below the Fed's 2% target, as measured by core personal consumption expenditures (PCE). The Fed has signaled the economy remains \"well below\" its targets, suggesting it would not change its policy stance or work to stave off the first signs of rising inflation.</p><p>But investors' fears that the Fed may be under appreciating a possible surge in inflation has begun to mount in recent weeks. Those concerns have only grown in amplitude as Congress passes additional stimulus to consumers, and as the Federal Reserve keeps its foot on the gas pedal with ultra-accommodative monetary policy comprising near-zero interest rates and a massive asset purchase program. The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield surged to a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-year high of about 1.6%, jumping by more than 50 basis points from levels a month earlier, as investors priced in the possibility that the Fed may need to tighten policy sooner than it has telegraphed as of late.</p><p>\"It is the inflation profile once reopening begins in earnest that should be of most interest,\" RBC Capital Markets economists wrote in a note Friday. \"The reality is that we are likely still a few months away from a significant supply/demand imbalance that is likely to take prices much higher.\"</p><p>\"Our baseline is for inflation to easily print with a 3-handle in 2Q and for the balance of 2021 thereafter,\" he added.</p><p><b>Roblox hits the public markets</b></p><p>Meanwhile, the video game company Roblox is set to make its public debut this week, in <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the latest high-profile, public facing companies to hit the public markets.</p><p>Roblox's direct listing is set to take place on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday under the ticker symbol \"RBLX.\" The move comes after the company delayed its public offering late last year amid a wave of exuberance in markets following Airbnb's (ABNB) and DoorDash's (DASH) IPOs.</p><p>By going public via a direct listing, Roblox will have existing stakeholders sell shares directly to public investors, rather than issuing new shares and conducting a fresh capital raise in the process as is the case in a traditional initial public offering. Companies including Spotify (SPOT) and Slack (WORK) also went public in recent years via direct listings, eschewing the typical IPO.</p><p>Roblox was last valued in the private market at $4 billion, following a $150 million funding round led by the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz in February last year.</p><p>Roblox daily active users have accelerated over the past couple years, and especially so during the pandemic with so many people stuck indoors and seeking out entertainment. Daily active users on Roblox grew by 85% to 32.6 million in 2020, accelerating from a 47% growth rate in 2019. Users' hours engaged also more than doubled to 30.6 billion last year.</p><p>That user growth has translated to major revenue growth for the 17-year-old company, which increased by 82% to about $924 million last year. Net losses have also widened, however, increasing from $71 million to about $253.3 million from 2019 to 2020.</p><p><img src=\"https://s.yimg.com/os/creatr-uploaded-images/2021-01/2994b2e0-500d-11eb-bff0-d79b8e34795e\" tg-width=\"5472\" tg-height=\"3648\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Alice Wilkinson (7) adds a face mask to her character on the game 'Roblox' at her home in Manchester, as the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) continues, Manchester, Britain, April 5, 2020. REUTERS/Phil NoblePhil Noble / reuters</p><p>As a beneficiary of 2020's stay-in-place orders, Roblox has already acknowledged that it's meteoric growth rates will likely not be sustained going forward.</p><p>\"We have experienced rapid growth in the three months ended June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020, December 31, 2020, and for a portion of the three months ended March 31, 2020, due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic given our users have been online more as a result of global COVID-19 shelter-in-place policies,\" the company said in a February 22 filing. \"For example, our bookings increased 171% from the year ended December 31, 2019 to the year ended December 31, 2020. We do not expect these activity levels to be sustained, and in future periods we expect growth rates for our revenue to decline, and we may not experience any growth in bookings or our user base during periods where we are comparing against COVID-19 impacted periods.\"</p><p>Roblox also recently issued guidance for the first and second quarters of this year, or for the three months ending in March and June, respectively. For the first quarter, daily active users may grow as much as 68% to 39.6 million, and revenue could grow as much as 85% to $335 million. For the second quarter, however, daily active user growth will likely grow as much as only 9% over last year, though revenue could still likely rise by as much as 86%, Roblox said.</p><p><b>Economic Calendar</b></p><ul><li><p><b>Monday: </b>Wholesale inventories, month-over-month, January final (1.3% expected, 1.3% in December)</p></li><li><p><b>Tuesday: </b>NFIB Small Business Optimism, February (96.3 expected, 95.0 in January)</p></li><li><p><b>Wednesday: </b>MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended March 5 (0.5% during prior week);

A highly anticipated direct listing for the video game company Roblox is also on deck.On Wednesday, the Labor Department will release its monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI), which tracks changes in prices for consumers across a broad basket of goods and services. Consensus economists anticipate that the CPI accelerated to see a 0.4% month-over-month increase in February, up from the 0.3% monthly rise in January, according to Bloomberg-compiled data.Over last year, the CPI likely rose by 1.7%, picking up from the 1.4% rise in January. But excluding more volatile food and energy prices, the CPI is expected to have risen 1.4% year-over-year to match its January increase, since a jump in energy prices during the harsh winter weather last month likely contributed much of the gain.Still, the possibility of an upside surprise in consumer prices gains has left investors jittery, with many market participants bracing for inflationary pressures to pick up rapidly later this year as more businesses reopen and many consumers start to release their pent-up savings during the pandemic.\"If our forecast is correct, February would mark the beginning of a reversal of COVID-induced relative price changes. That would imply goods prices might decline but service prices might increase in coming months, as consumer demand shifts back to services requiring personal contact,\" Nomura chief economist Lewis Alexander wrote in a note Friday.\"We expect relative price changes between goods and services to exert modest inflationary pressure going forward,\" he added. \"However, the persistent softness of rent inflation should limit the degree of acceleration in core inflation for some time, with the exception of an expected jump in year-on-year changes due to base effects.\"Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell holds a press conference following a two day Federal Open Market Committee policy meeting in Washington, U.S., January 30, 2019. REUTERS/Leah Millis TPX IMAGES OF THE DAYLeah Millis / ReutersFederal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has reiterated repeatedly that he believes any impending rise in inflation this year will be \"transitory,\" resulting as the year-over-year data laps 2020's highly depressed inflationary prints. For years preceding the pandemic, inflation had held well below the Fed's 2% target, as measured by core personal consumption expenditures (PCE). The Fed has signaled the economy remains \"well below\" its targets, suggesting it would not change its policy stance or work to stave off the first signs of rising inflation.But investors' fears that the Fed may be under appreciating a possible surge in inflation has begun to mount in recent weeks. Those concerns have only grown in amplitude as Congress passes additional stimulus to consumers, and as the Federal Reserve keeps its foot on the gas pedal with ultra-accommodative monetary policy comprising near-zero interest rates and a massive asset purchase program. The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield surged to a one-year high of about 1.6%, jumping by more than 50 basis points from levels a month earlier, as investors priced in the possibility that the Fed may need to tighten policy sooner than it has telegraphed as of late.\"It is the inflation profile once reopening begins in earnest that should be of most interest,\" RBC Capital Markets economists wrote in a note Friday. \"The reality is that we are likely still a few months away from a significant supply/demand imbalance that is likely to take prices much higher.\"\"Our baseline is for inflation to easily print with a 3-handle in 2Q and for the balance of 2021 thereafter,\" he added.Roblox hits the public marketsMeanwhile, the video game company Roblox is set to make its public debut this week, in one of the latest high-profile, public facing companies to hit the public markets.Roblox's direct listing is set to take place on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday under the ticker symbol \"RBLX.\" The move comes after the company delayed its public offering late last year amid a wave of exuberance in markets following Airbnb's (ABNB) and DoorDash's (DASH) IPOs.By going public via a direct listing, Roblox will have existing stakeholders sell shares directly to public investors, rather than issuing new shares and conducting a fresh capital raise in the process as is the case in a traditional initial public offering. Companies including Spotify (SPOT) and Slack (WORK) also went public in recent years via direct listings, eschewing the typical IPO.Roblox was last valued in the private market at $4 billion, following a $150 million funding round led by the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz in February last year.Roblox daily active users have accelerated over the past couple years, and especially so during the pandemic with so many people stuck indoors and seeking out entertainment. Daily active users on Roblox grew by 85% to 32.6 million in 2020, accelerating from a 47% growth rate in 2019. Users' hours engaged also more than doubled to 30.6 billion last year.That user growth has translated to major revenue growth for the 17-year-old company, which increased by 82% to about $924 million last year. Net losses have also widened, however, increasing from $71 million to about $253.3 million from 2019 to 2020.Alice Wilkinson (7) adds a face mask to her character on the game 'Roblox' at her home in Manchester, as the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) continues, Manchester, Britain, April 5, 2020. REUTERS/Phil NoblePhil Noble / reutersAs a beneficiary of 2020's stay-in-place orders, Roblox has already acknowledged that it's meteoric growth rates will likely not be sustained going forward.\"We have experienced rapid growth in the three months ended June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020, December 31, 2020, and for a portion of the three months ended March 31, 2020, due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic given our users have been online more as a result of global COVID-19 shelter-in-place policies,\" the company said in a February 22 filing. \"For example, our bookings increased 171% from the year ended December 31, 2019 to the year ended December 31, 2020. We do not expect these activity levels to be sustained, and in future periods we expect growth rates for our revenue to decline, and we may not experience any growth in bookings or our user base during periods where we are comparing against COVID-19 impacted periods.\"Roblox also recently issued guidance for the first and second quarters of this year, or for the three months ending in March and June, respectively. For the first quarter, daily active users may grow as much as 68% to 39.6 million, and revenue could grow as much as 85% to $335 million. For the second quarter, however, daily active user growth will likely grow as much as only 9% over last year, though revenue could still likely rise by as much as 86%, Roblox said.Economic CalendarMonday: Wholesale inventories, month-over-month, January final (1.3% expected, 1.3% in December)Tuesday: NFIB Small Business Optimism, February (96.3 expected, 95.0 in January)Wednesday: MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended March 5 (0.5% during prior week); Consumer Price Index, month-over-month, February (0.4% expected, 0.3% in January); Consumer Price Index excluding food and energy, month-over-month, February (0.2% expected, 0.0% in January); Consumer Price Index year-over-year, February (1.7% expected, 1.4% in January); Consumer Price Index excluding food and energy, year-over-year (1.4% expected, 1.4% in January); Monthly Budget Statement, February (-$162.8 billion in January)Thursday: Initial jobless claims, week ended March 6 (725,000 expected, 745,000 during prior week); Continuing claims, week ended February 27 (4.180 million expected, 4.295 million during prior week); JOLTS job openings, January (6.600 million expected, 6.646 million in December); Household change in net worth, 4Q ($3.817 trillion in 3Q)Friday: Producer price index, month-over-month, February (0.4% expected, 1.3% in January); Producer price index excluding food and energy, month-over-month, February (0.2% expected, 1.2% in January); Producer price index year-over-year, February (2.7% expected, 1.7% in January); Producer price index excluding food and energy, year-over-year (2.6% expected, 2.0% in January); University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment, March preliminary (78.0 expected, 76.8 in February)Earnings CalendarMonday: StitchFix (SFIX), ContextLogic (WISH) after market closeTuesday: MongoDB (MDB) after market closeWednesday: Bumble (BMBL), Oracle (ORCL), AMC Entertainment (AMC) after market closeThursday: DocuSign (DOCU), Ulta (ULTA), Poshmark (POSH) after market closeFriday: N/A","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":203,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":320763513,"gmtCreate":1615178546732,"gmtModify":1704779162918,"author":{"id":"3558558240660669","authorId":"3558558240660669","name":"tokming","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3558558240660669","authorIdStr":"3558558240660669"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/320763513","repostId":"2117651365","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2117651365","pubTimestamp":1615125354,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2117651365?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-07 21:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Roblox goes public, inflation data: What to know in the week ahead","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2117651365","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"This week, investors will be eyeing new inflation data, which will offer a look at whether prices ha","content":"<p>This week, investors will be eyeing new inflation data, which will offer a look at whether prices have already begun to creep up as some have feared ahead of a major economic reopening.

A highly anticipated direct listing for the video game company Roblox is also on deck.On Wednesday, the Labor Department will release its monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI), which tracks changes in prices for consumers across a broad basket of goods and services. Consensus economists anticipate that the CPI accelerated to see a 0.4% month-over-month increase in February, up from the 0.3% monthly rise in January, according to Bloomberg-compiled data.Over last year, the CPI likely rose by 1.7%, picking up from the 1.4% rise in January. But excluding more volatile food and energy prices, the CPI is expected to have risen 1.4% year-over-year to match its January increase, since a jump in energy prices during the harsh winter weather last month likely contributed much of the gain.Still, the possibility of an upside surprise in consumer prices gains has left investors jittery, with many market participants bracing for inflationary pressures to pick up rapidly later this year as more businesses reopen and many consumers start to release their pent-up savings during the pandemic.\"If our forecast is correct, February would mark the beginning of a reversal of COVID-induced relative price changes. That would imply goods prices might decline but service prices might increase in coming months, as consumer demand shifts back to services requiring personal contact,\" Nomura chief economist Lewis Alexander wrote in a note Friday.\"We expect relative price changes between goods and services to exert modest inflationary pressure going forward,\" he added. \"However, the persistent softness of rent inflation should limit the degree of acceleration in core inflation for some time, with the exception of an expected jump in year-on-year changes due to base effects.\"Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell holds a press conference following a two day Federal Open Market Committee policy meeting in Washington, U.S., January 30, 2019. REUTERS/Leah Millis TPX IMAGES OF THE DAYLeah Millis / ReutersFederal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has reiterated repeatedly that he believes any impending rise in inflation this year will be \"transitory,\" resulting as the year-over-year data laps 2020's highly depressed inflationary prints. For years preceding the pandemic, inflation had held well below the Fed's 2% target, as measured by core personal consumption expenditures (PCE). The Fed has signaled the economy remains \"well below\" its targets, suggesting it would not change its policy stance or work to stave off the first signs of rising inflation.But investors' fears that the Fed may be under appreciating a possible surge in inflation has begun to mount in recent weeks. Those concerns have only grown in amplitude as Congress passes additional stimulus to consumers, and as the Federal Reserve keeps its foot on the gas pedal with ultra-accommodative monetary policy comprising near-zero interest rates and a massive asset purchase program. The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield surged to a one-year high of about 1.6%, jumping by more than 50 basis points from levels a month earlier, as investors priced in the possibility that the Fed may need to tighten policy sooner than it has telegraphed as of late.\"It is the inflation profile once reopening begins in earnest that should be of most interest,\" RBC Capital Markets economists wrote in a note Friday. \"The reality is that we are likely still a few months away from a significant supply/demand imbalance that is likely to take prices much higher.\"\"Our baseline is for inflation to easily print with a 3-handle in 2Q and for the balance of 2021 thereafter,\" he added.Roblox hits the public marketsMeanwhile, the video game company Roblox is set to make its public debut this week, in one of the latest high-profile, public facing companies to hit the public markets.Roblox's direct listing is set to take place on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday under the ticker symbol \"RBLX.\" The move comes after the company delayed its public offering late last year amid a wave of exuberance in markets following Airbnb's (ABNB) and DoorDash's (DASH) IPOs.By going public via a direct listing, Roblox will have existing stakeholders sell shares directly to public investors, rather than issuing new shares and conducting a fresh capital raise in the process as is the case in a traditional initial public offering. Companies including Spotify (SPOT) and Slack (WORK) also went public in recent years via direct listings, eschewing the typical IPO.Roblox was last valued in the private market at $4 billion, following a $150 million funding round led by the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz in February last year.Roblox daily active users have accelerated over the past couple years, and especially so during the pandemic with so many people stuck indoors and seeking out entertainment. Daily active users on Roblox grew by 85% to 32.6 million in 2020, accelerating from a 47% growth rate in 2019. Users' hours engaged also more than doubled to 30.6 billion last year.That user growth has translated to major revenue growth for the 17-year-old company, which increased by 82% to about $924 million last year. Net losses have also widened, however, increasing from $71 million to about $253.3 million from 2019 to 2020.Alice Wilkinson (7) adds a face mask to her character on the game 'Roblox' at her home in Manchester, as the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) continues, Manchester, Britain, April 5, 2020. REUTERS/Phil NoblePhil Noble / reutersAs a beneficiary of 2020's stay-in-place orders, Roblox has already acknowledged that it's meteoric growth rates will likely not be sustained going forward.\"We have experienced rapid growth in the three months ended June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020, December 31, 2020, and for a portion of the three months ended March 31, 2020, due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic given our users have been online more as a result of global COVID-19 shelter-in-place policies,\" the company said in a February 22 filing. \"For example, our bookings increased 171% from the year ended December 31, 2019 to the year ended December 31, 2020. We do not expect these activity levels to be sustained, and in future periods we expect growth rates for our revenue to decline, and we may not experience any growth in bookings or our user base during periods where we are comparing against COVID-19 impacted periods.\"Roblox also recently issued guidance for the first and second quarters of this year, or for the three months ending in March and June, respectively. For the first quarter, daily active users may grow as much as 68% to 39.6 million, and revenue could grow as much as 85% to $335 million. For the second quarter, however, daily active user growth will likely grow as much as only 9% over last year, though revenue could still likely rise by as much as 86%, Roblox said.Economic CalendarMonday: Wholesale inventories, month-over-month, January final (1.3% expected, 1.3% in December)Tuesday: NFIB Small Business Optimism, February (96.3 expected, 95.0 in January)Wednesday: MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended March 5 (0.5% during prior week); Consumer Price Index, month-over-month, February (0.4% expected, 0.3% in January); Consumer Price Index excluding food and energy, month-over-month, February (0.2% expected, 0.0% in January); Consumer Price Index year-over-year, February (1.7% expected, 1.4% in January); Consumer Price Index excluding food and energy, year-over-year (1.4% expected, 1.4% in January); Monthly Budget Statement, February (-$162.8 billion in January)Thursday: Initial jobless claims, week ended March 6 (725,000 expected, 745,000 during prior week); Continuing claims, week ended February 27 (4.180 million expected, 4.295 million during prior week); JOLTS job openings, January (6.600 million expected, 6.646 million in December); Household change in net worth, 4Q ($3.817 trillion in 3Q)Friday: Producer price index, month-over-month, February (0.4% expected, 1.3% in January); Producer price index excluding food and energy, month-over-month, February (0.2% expected, 1.2% in January); Producer price index year-over-year, February (2.7% expected, 1.7% in January); Producer price index excluding food and energy, year-over-year (2.6% expected, 2.0% in January); University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment, March preliminary (78.0 expected, 76.8 in February)Earnings CalendarMonday: StitchFix (SFIX), ContextLogic (WISH) after market closeTuesday: MongoDB (MDB) after market closeWednesday: Bumble (BMBL), Oracle (ORCL), AMC Entertainment (AMC) after market closeThursday: DocuSign (DOCU), Ulta (ULTA), Poshmark (POSH) after market closeFriday: N/A","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":202,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
