The print is expected to show an acceleration in rehiring and a step lower in the unemployment rate, helping alleviate some of the labor shortages reported across the economy as of late.</p>\n<p>Non-farm payrolls likely grew by 700,000 in June, according to Bloomberg consensus data. This would accelerate from the 559,000 added back in May and mark the biggest rise since March. And the unemployment rate is expected to move down to 5.6% from 5.8% in May, bringing the jobless rate closer to its pre-pandemic, 50-year low of 3.5%.</p>\n<p>\"Payrolls probably surged again in June, with the pace up from the +559,000 in May,\" TD Securities strategists wrote in a note Friday. \"Some acceleration in the private sector is suggested by the Homebase data, while government payrolls probably benefited from fewer than usual end-of-school-year layoffs.\"</p>\n<p>Even with a sizable monthly payroll gain, the economy would still be well off its pre-pandemic levels of employment. Heading into June, the U.S. economy was still down by more than 7 million payrolls compared to February 2020, with the deficit most pronounced in high-contact services industries like restaurants and hotels.</p>\n<p>But both services and manufacturing companies have cited shortages of qualified workers to fill open positions, which hit a record high of over 9 million as of latest data. These supply-and-demand mismatches in the labor market – with shortages noted by firms from FedEx (FDX) to Yum Brands (YUM) — have also begun to push wages higher and created additional costs for businesses. In Friday's report, average hourly earnings are expected to jump 3.6% year-on-year for June, accelerating from May's 2% increase.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b881fe96eccc72cff61bf35b0dfa72fa\" tg-width=\"5210\" tg-height=\"3404\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 03: A pedestrian walks by a Now Hiring sign outside of a Lamps Plus store on June 03, 2021 in San Francisco, California. According to a U.S. Labor Department report, jobless claims fell for a fifth straight week to 385,000. (Photo by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)Justin Sullivan via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p>\"Strong demand and weak supply should continue to put upward pressure on wages,\" Bank of America economist Michelle Meyer wrote in a note. \"Workers are quitting at a higher rate as they find better opportunities.\"</p>\n<p>However, a confluence of factors that have kept workers on the sidelines of the labor market may start to lessen in the coming months, some economists noted. Many have agreed that a combination of childcare concerns, fears of contracting COVID-19 and ongoing enhanced federal unemployment benefits have contributed to the still-elevated levels of joblessness, but that each of these should diminish as schools reopen, vaccinations continue and jobless benefits get phased out over the next several months.</p>\n<p>\"Labor supply may soon pick up,\" Meyer said. \"We find evidence of a quicker drop in unemployment insurance (UI) applications in states that discontinued generous federal UI benefits.\"</p>\n<p>\"Four states — Alaska, Iowa, Mississippi and Missouri — opted out in June 12 and UI applications in those states have fallen faster compared to other states, according to the latest initial jobless claims figures,\" she added. \"With another eight states opting out in the week ending June 19 and a total of 25 states by end of the summer, more workers should return to the workforce, helping to ease wage pressures and help meet the strong labor demand in the economy.\"</p>\n<h2>Consumer confidence</h2>\n<h2></h2>\n<p>Another closely watched economic data print this week will be the Conference Board's June consumer confidence index, which is expected to reflect a strong pick-up in sentiment during the recovery and heading into the summer.

The print is expected to show an acceleration in rehiring and a step lower in the unemployment rate, helping alleviate some of the labor shortages reported across the economy as of late.\nNon-farm payrolls likely grew by 700,000 in June, according to Bloomberg consensus data. This would accelerate from the 559,000 added back in May and mark the biggest rise since March. And the unemployment rate is expected to move down to 5.6% from 5.8% in May, bringing the jobless rate closer to its pre-pandemic, 50-year low of 3.5%.\n\"Payrolls probably surged again in June, with the pace up from the +559,000 in May,\" TD Securities strategists wrote in a note Friday. \"Some acceleration in the private sector is suggested by the Homebase data, while government payrolls probably benefited from fewer than usual end-of-school-year layoffs.\"\nEven with a sizable monthly payroll gain, the economy would still be well off its pre-pandemic levels of employment. Heading into June, the U.S. economy was still down by more than 7 million payrolls compared to February 2020, with the deficit most pronounced in high-contact services industries like restaurants and hotels.\nBut both services and manufacturing companies have cited shortages of qualified workers to fill open positions, which hit a record high of over 9 million as of latest data. These supply-and-demand mismatches in the labor market – with shortages noted by firms from FedEx (FDX) to Yum Brands (YUM) — have also begun to push wages higher and created additional costs for businesses. In Friday's report, average hourly earnings are expected to jump 3.6% year-on-year for June, accelerating from May's 2% increase.\nSAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 03: A pedestrian walks by a Now Hiring sign outside of a Lamps Plus store on June 03, 2021 in San Francisco, California. According to a U.S. Labor Department report, jobless claims fell for a fifth straight week to 385,000. (Photo by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)Justin Sullivan via Getty Images\n\"Strong demand and weak supply should continue to put upward pressure on wages,\" Bank of America economist Michelle Meyer wrote in a note. \"Workers are quitting at a higher rate as they find better opportunities.\"\nHowever, a confluence of factors that have kept workers on the sidelines of the labor market may start to lessen in the coming months, some economists noted. Many have agreed that a combination of childcare concerns, fears of contracting COVID-19 and ongoing enhanced federal unemployment benefits have contributed to the still-elevated levels of joblessness, but that each of these should diminish as schools reopen, vaccinations continue and jobless benefits get phased out over the next several months.\n\"Labor supply may soon pick up,\" Meyer said. \"We find evidence of a quicker drop in unemployment insurance (UI) applications in states that discontinued generous federal UI benefits.\"\n\"Four states — Alaska, Iowa, Mississippi and Missouri — opted out in June 12 and UI applications in those states have fallen faster compared to other states, according to the latest initial jobless claims figures,\" she added. \"With another eight states opting out in the week ending June 19 and a total of 25 states by end of the summer, more workers should return to the workforce, helping to ease wage pressures and help meet the strong labor demand in the economy.\"\nConsumer confidence\n\nAnother closely watched economic data print this week will be the Conference Board's June consumer confidence index, which is expected to reflect a strong pick-up in sentiment during the recovery and heading into the summer. The report is due for release Tuesday morning.\nThe headline index is likely to rise to 119.0 for June from 117.2 in May, according to Bloomberg consensus data. This would mark the highest level since February 2020's 132.6, which itself had been a near two-decade high.\nLike investors, consumers have begun to warm to the notion that inflationary pressures seen during the early stages of the economic recovery may prove transitory. This has helped raise consumers' future expectations for their spending power and boosted sentiment at large, according to other consumer sentiment surveys including the University of Michigan's Surveys of Consumers.\nNot only did year-ahead inflation expectations fall slightly to 4.2% in June from May's decade peak of 4.6%, consumers also believed that the price surges will mostly be temporary,\" Richard Curtin, chief economist for the Surveys of Consumers, said on Friday.\n\"When the pandemic first started, consumers were quite uncertain about their job and income prospects, but reported widespread declines in market prices for homes, vehicles, and household durables,\" he added. \"Those favorable price references have dropped to the most negative in a decade, and job and income prospects have improved, but not quite as favorable as in the last few years of the prior expansion.\"\nStill, in a sign of some downside risk in Tuesday's report from the Conference Board, the University of Michigan's June final sentiment index edged lower to 85.5, coming in below the 86.4 preliminary print, but still above May's reading of 82.9.\nEconomic Calendar\n\nMonday: Dallas Fed Manufacturing Activity Index, June (32.5 expected, 34.9 in May)\nTuesday: FHFA House Price Index, month-on-month, April (1.7% expected, 1.4% in March);

The rebalance happens, simply put, because markets change and evolve. The annual reconstitution ensures that the Russell U.S. Indexes are recast to reflect changes in the U.S. equity markets over the preceding year in accordance with the transparent, public, rules-based methodology.</p>\n<p>During the multiweek rebalancing process – concluding this year on June 25 – changes in market capitalization, sector composition, company rankings and style orientation are captured to be reflected in the new index composition and allow the different indices to remain representative of the benchmarks they are targeting.</p>\n<p><b>Why Is This Important For Investors?</b></p>\n<p>The annual reconstitution is one of the most significant drivers of short-term shifts in supply and demand for U.S. equities, often leading to sizable price movements and volatility in individual company names or industry sectors. The final day of the reconstitution has typically been one of the highest trading volume days of the year in U.S. equity markets.</p>\n<p>The Russell Reconstitution plays a critical role in ensuring consistency, transparency and reliability of U.S. equity market measures for global investors.</p>\n<p>This closely watched market event impacts more than $9 trillion in investor assets benchmarked to or invested in products based on the Russell U.S. Indexes. The event can create risks for investors who are tracking these indices to ensure they have minimal performance slippage versus their benchmark index. Similarly, it can create opportunities for investors seeking to benefit from the price moves which may be created from the reconstitution.</p>\n<p>Countless ETFs, mutual funds and managed asset programs mirror the composition of the Russell U.S. Indexes in their investment funds, structured products and index-based derivatives. With close to 70% of actively-managed institutional U.S. equity assets currently benchmarked to a Russell Index, changes to index composition are apt to reverberate widely across the market.</p>\n<p>Comparison of year-to-year changes in the breakpoint between large cap and small-cap sectors serves as a useful gauge of secular growth in market valuations.</p>\n<p><b>Exhibit 1:Historical Maximum and Minimum Market Capitalizations, With and Without Banding</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0bd382be1cf4fa7988c22a2465e7868e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"302\">Banding minimizes unnecessary turnover: Any incumbent index member will get moved from the large-cap segment to the small cap segment, or vice versa, only if its newly-evaluated market cap falls outside a 5% band centered around the breakpoint.</p>\n<p><b>Exhibit 2: Historical Breakpoint Between Russell Large Cap and Small Cap Indexes</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6655f0a2ceaaadf8dc5bdc9a631a8329\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"329\"></p>\n<p><b>What Does the Early Reconstitution Analysis Tell Us?</b></p>\n<p>On May 7, known as rank day, FTSE Russell posted its preliminary lists of companies set to enter or leave the Russell 2000 Index. The preliminary list shows dozens of publicly traded banks expected to be removed from the Index in June 2021.</p>\n<p>During last summer’s reconstitution in the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, the smallest market cap in the Russell 2000 dropped to$94.8 million, the cutoff’s lowest point since the Great Recession. Analysts are expecting a high market-cap hurdle in 2021.</p>\n<p>Four times during June, preliminary lists of additions and deletions to indexes including the Russell 2000 are made public, per the FTSE Russell’s reconstitutionschedule. On June 25, after markets close on the last Friday of the month, the Russell rebalance goes into effect.</p>\n<p>Away from the limelight that FAANG stocks and the Nasdaq-dominated stocks get, the small-cap shares also had a tremendous run over the past 12 months.

The rebalance happens, simply put, because markets change and evolve. The annual reconstitution ensures that the Russell U.S. Indexes are recast to reflect changes in the U.S. equity markets over the preceding year in accordance with the transparent, public, rules-based methodology.\nDuring the multiweek rebalancing process – concluding this year on June 25 – changes in market capitalization, sector composition, company rankings and style orientation are captured to be reflected in the new index composition and allow the different indices to remain representative of the benchmarks they are targeting.\nWhy Is This Important For Investors?\nThe annual reconstitution is one of the most significant drivers of short-term shifts in supply and demand for U.S. equities, often leading to sizable price movements and volatility in individual company names or industry sectors. The final day of the reconstitution has typically been one of the highest trading volume days of the year in U.S. equity markets.\nThe Russell Reconstitution plays a critical role in ensuring consistency, transparency and reliability of U.S. equity market measures for global investors.\nThis closely watched market event impacts more than $9 trillion in investor assets benchmarked to or invested in products based on the Russell U.S. Indexes. The event can create risks for investors who are tracking these indices to ensure they have minimal performance slippage versus their benchmark index. Similarly, it can create opportunities for investors seeking to benefit from the price moves which may be created from the reconstitution.\nCountless ETFs, mutual funds and managed asset programs mirror the composition of the Russell U.S. Indexes in their investment funds, structured products and index-based derivatives. With close to 70% of actively-managed institutional U.S. equity assets currently benchmarked to a Russell Index, changes to index composition are apt to reverberate widely across the market.\nComparison of year-to-year changes in the breakpoint between large cap and small-cap sectors serves as a useful gauge of secular growth in market valuations.\nExhibit 1:Historical Maximum and Minimum Market Capitalizations, With and Without Banding\nBanding minimizes unnecessary turnover: Any incumbent index member will get moved from the large-cap segment to the small cap segment, or vice versa, only if its newly-evaluated market cap falls outside a 5% band centered around the breakpoint.\nExhibit 2: Historical Breakpoint Between Russell Large Cap and Small Cap Indexes\n\nWhat Does the Early Reconstitution Analysis Tell Us?\nOn May 7, known as rank day, FTSE Russell posted its preliminary lists of companies set to enter or leave the Russell 2000 Index. The preliminary list shows dozens of publicly traded banks expected to be removed from the Index in June 2021.\nDuring last summer’s reconstitution in the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, the smallest market cap in the Russell 2000 dropped to$94.8 million, the cutoff’s lowest point since the Great Recession. Analysts are expecting a high market-cap hurdle in 2021.\nFour times during June, preliminary lists of additions and deletions to indexes including the Russell 2000 are made public, per the FTSE Russell’s reconstitutionschedule. On June 25, after markets close on the last Friday of the month, the Russell rebalance goes into effect.\nAway from the limelight that FAANG stocks and the Nasdaq-dominated stocks get, the small-cap shares also had a tremendous run over the past 12 months. The Russell 2000 Index is up by nearly 100% over the one-year period.\nUsing CME E-mini Russell 2000 Index Futures Around the Reconstitution\nMany investors consider the Russell 2000 Index to bethe most comprehensive indicator of the U.S. economydue to its breadth of industries as well as its constituents central exposure to the United States.\nThe annual reconstitution requires thoughtful and well-executed risk management on the part of investors. It is one of the most significant drivers of short-term shifts in supply and demand for U.S. equities, often leading to sizable price movements and volatility in individual companies or industry sectors.\nInvestors thinking about rebalancing their index exposures could involve buying all index additions and selling all index deletions, while carefully weighing the trade-offs between tracking error and minimization of price impacts and trading costs. Although reconstitution poses a risk of performance slippage and index tracking error, it also can present opportunities for investors seeking to benefit from share price moves that arise from reconstitution.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":186,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":167440530,"gmtCreate":1624283264820,"gmtModify":1703832394425,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/167440530","repostId":"1154249454","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154249454","pubTimestamp":1624230573,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1154249454?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-21 07:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nike, FedEx, Johnson & Johnson, Darden, and Other Stocks for Investors to Watch This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154249454","media":"barrons","summary":"A handful of notable companies will release their latest results toward the end of this week.Nike,FedEx,andDarden Restaurantswill report on Thursday, followed by CarMax and Paychex on Friday.

It's happening today,\" says Allister Wilmott, president of ARC Aviation Renewables, a solar-power and LED aviation lighting firm. \"Already, about one in 40 new cars is electric. But that number grows every year, and 20% or more of all new car sales will likely be electric by 2030.\"</p><p>The growth is there, and it's happening before our eyes. The question is simply how to best play this trend.</p><p><b>Today, we're going to take a look at seven of the largest and most widely-traded EV stocks.</b>This isn't necessarily a recommendation list – some of these electric vehicle stocks might indeed not be right for you.</p><p>Every stock on this list is highly speculative, so you should only purchase them if you have a high tolerance for risk. But if you're looking to play the trend of rising consumer embrace of electric vehicles, these EV stocks are the ones&nbsp;you'd want to consider.</p><p>Data is as of June 1.</p><p><b>Tesla</b></p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$601.0 billion</li><li><b>Year-to-date return:</b>-11.6%</li></ul><p>For many investors,<b>Tesla</b>(TSLA, $623.90) is synonymous with electric vehicles the same way that \"Coke\" is synonymous with fizzy soft drinks.</p><p>There were electric vehicles before Tesla, of course, but no one wanted to drive them. The styling was typically awful and the cars lacked power.</p><p>Tesla changed all that. Led by its charismatic CEO Elon Musk, Tesla made electric vehicles cool.</p><p>But even after its recent selloff, the EV stock remains wildly expensive. Today, TSLA trades for 19.4 times annual sales. To put that in perspective, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> (AAPL) – one of the highest-margin hardware makers in history – trades for just 6.6 times sales, and most automakers trade for less than 1 times sales.</p><p>Slicing the numbers differently, Tesla might sell something in the ballpark of a million cars this year. At that level and given Tesla's current market cap, investors would be paying over $600,000 for each car sold.</p><p>Investors clearly aren't valuing Tesla like a car company, and perhaps they shouldn't. Based on CEO Elon Musk's decision to invest a good chunk of the company's cash hoard in&nbsp;Bitcoin, you could argue Tesla is now a cryptocurrency hedge fund masquerading as an EV producer.</p><p>In any event, investors are valuing it like a high-flying tech startup. And perhaps that's reasonable given the company's leadership in battery technology and autonomous driving. But Tesla is expensive even by tech stock standards.</p><p>All the same, a similar argument could have been made at virtually any point over the past 13 years and it would have been equally true. Yet TSLA shares are still where they are today.</p><p><b>Nio</b></p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$69.4 billion</li><li><b>Year-to-date return:</b>-13.1%</li></ul><p><b>Nio</b>(NIO, $42.34) is a Chinese electric vehicle maker, which makes it interesting for several reasons.</p><p>To start, China has far less of a domestic energy industry to support and still imports most of its fossil fuels. This gives the country far more of an incentive to lower energy imports by pushing electric vehicle ownership.</p><p>Furthermore, China's air quality is abysmal in most cities, and moving its car fleet from fossil fuels to electric vehicles would certainly help move the needle on that problem.</p><p>Last November, China passed new rules requiring that 40% of all car sales in China be electric vehicles by 2030. That's a big deal, to say the least. And as one of China's electric vehicle champions, NIO stock is a way to play the trend of a greener China.</p><p>Again, though, you'll need to be careful here.</p><p>Chinese stocks do not have the best reputations for clean accounting, and Nio carries a lot of debt to boot. Its debt-to-equity ratio is a ridiculously high 57. Valuation is unsurprisingly problematic, too. The company isn't profitable, making the calculation of a price/earnings (P/E) ratio impossible, but its price/sales ratio of 15.5 looks reasonable when compared to Tesla's 19.4.</p><p>NIO's shares are down by nearly 40% from their 52-week highs and have been trending lower since the start of the year. While NIO may still emerge as a global electric vehicle powerhouse, it's never a good idea to chase a stock lower. You might want to wait for the EV stock's price to reverse course and trend higher for a few weeks before nibbling on this one.</p><p><b>XPeng</b></p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$27.8 billion</li><li><b>Year-to-date return:</b>-19.2%</li></ul><p>For another play on the Chinese EV market, consider&nbsp;<b>XPeng</b>(XPEV, $34.60), which trades&nbsp;in the U.S. as an American depositary receipt (ADR). The company&nbsp;is based in Guangzhou and&nbsp;went public last August&nbsp;at the peak of the EV stock frenzy. While the shares are still brand new in the U.S. market, XPEV has been in operation since 2014.</p><p>XPeng can be thought of as a Chinese version of Tesla. In addition to making electric vehicles, the company is also developing autonomous driving capabilities and operates a network of charging stations.</p><p>XPEV currently operates 1,140 stations spread across 164 Chinese cities. This gives the company a significant competitive advantage in its home market, as it allows it&nbsp;to offer free lifetime charging services to its customers.</p><p>Its models are still relatively unknown in the United States, but the company's G3 SUV and P7 sedan are best sellers in China. And significantly, the P7 boasts a 440-mile range on a single charge.</p><p>As with the other names on this list, XPeng has struggled this year. The electric vehicle stock is down by about 40% from its January highs and more than half from its 2020 highs, though the shares appear to have found at least a short-term bottom in mid-May.</p><p>If you believe in the Chinese EV story, XPeng is worth a good look.</p><p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LI\">Li Auto</a></b></p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$21.5 billion</li><li><b>Year-to-date return:</b>-17.4%</li></ul><p>And for one last Chinese EV play, consider&nbsp;<b>Li Auto</b>(LI, $23.81). Li was founded in Beijing in 2015 and went public in the U.S. in July of last year.</p><p>The company designs and manufactures premium \"smart\" electric SUVs. Its first model available for sale was the Li ONE, a large, six-seat SUV. The company started production in November of 2019, and through December of last year had already delivered 33,500 vehicles.</p><p>In 2021, Li has continued that momentum. Monthly sales were up 111% year-over-year in April, following a 239% annual jump in March.</p><p>That's a promising start, but like many of the stocks on this list, Li is still an early stage company that has only sold a little over 50,000 vehicles in its entire history.</p><p>The Chinese government is backing the rise of electric vehicles, but you still have to consider these companies highly speculative.</p><p>Like the other EV stocks on this list, Li has really struggled in 2021, as the shares have ground lower continuously since November of last year. But for what it's worth, the electric vehicle stock reversed course in May, and has been trending higher in recent weeks.</p><p><b>Electrameccanica Vehicles</b></p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$455.2 million</li><li><b>Year-to-date return:</b>-34.9%</li></ul><p>If you think an over-indebted, money-losing Chinese carmaker&nbsp;is a speculative play, take a look at&nbsp;<b>Electrameccanica Vehicles</b>(SOLO, $4.03). Electrameccanica is a small Canadian firm with just 119 full-time employees and a market cap of just $455 million.</p><p>You're not really buying a company here. You're buying a concept, as the cars are not fully in production yet.</p><p>Electrameccanica sells its cars under the Solo, Tofino and eRoadster brands, and let's just say they're a bit different. The Solo, for example, has only one seat and three wheels, making it look more like a go-cart than a passenger vehicle. But if you're looking for minimal environmental impact, Solo is your car.</p><p>SOLO went public in 2018, and it has been a rocky ride.</p><p>The shares exploded higher last year but have been trending lower since November. It might be best to wait for some indication this EV stock has bottomed out before considering a new position here.

As a case in point, Tesla (TSLA) – the closest thing in this space to an established company – saw its shares rise by 743% last year. But the price is down by about 12% thus far in 2021.And Tesla certainly isn't the only electric vehicle maker struggling to find its mojo this year. The entire sector has struggled as investors have booked profits and cheaper value stocks have come back into favor.So, what's the story here? Is the epic run in EV stocks over, or is it merely taking a well-deserved break?Let's start with some fundamentals.While electric vehicles aren't exactly a novelty anymore, they're just now hitting their stride. Tesla produced about half a million cars last year and expectations are for even more sales in 2021. And its competitors are also ramping up production. Electrification of the American auto fleet is a priority of the Biden administration, as is seizing global leadership in renewable energy.\"When it comes to renewable energy, this is not something that happens years in the future.

But that number grows every year, and 20% or more of all new car sales will likely be electric by 2030.\"The growth is there, and it's happening before our eyes. The question is simply how to best play this trend.Today, we're going to take a look at seven of the largest and most widely-traded EV stocks.This isn't necessarily a recommendation list – some of these electric vehicle stocks might indeed not be right for you.Every stock on this list is highly speculative, so you should only purchase them if you have a high tolerance for risk. But if you're looking to play the trend of rising consumer embrace of electric vehicles, these EV stocks are the ones you'd want to consider.Data is as of June 1.TeslaMarket value:$601.0 billionYear-to-date return:-11.6%For many investors,Tesla(TSLA, $623.90) is synonymous with electric vehicles the same way that \"Coke\" is synonymous with fizzy soft drinks.There were electric vehicles before Tesla, of course, but no one wanted to drive them.

POINTSThe last week of April will be extremely busy for markets with a third of the S&P 500 reporting earnings, a Federal Reserve meeting, and new spending and tax proposals from the White House.Big Tech is a highlight of the earnings calendar, with Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook and Alphabet all releasing results.The Fed is not expected to take any action, but economists expect it to defend its policy to let inflation run hot.There is some key data including first-quarter gross domestic product and the Fed’s favorite inflation measure: the personal consumption expenditures deflator.The final week of April is going to be a busy one for markets with a Federal Reserve meeting and a deluge of earnings news.Hot topics in markets will continue to be inflation and taxes.President Joe Biden is expected to detail his “American Families Plan” and the tax increases to pay for it, including a much higher capital gains tax for the wealthy.The plan is the second part of his Build Back Better agenda and will include new spending proposals aimed at helping families. The president addresses a joint session of Congress Wednesday evening.It’s a huge week for earnings with about a third of the S&P 500 reporting, including Big Tech names, such as Apple,Microsoft,Alphabet and Amazon.As many have already done, firms like Boeing, Ford,Caterpillar and McDonald’s, are likely to detail cost pressures they are facing from rising materials and transportation costs and supply chain disruptions.At the same time, the Fed is expected to defend its policy of letting inflation run hot, while assuring markets it sees the pick-up in prices as only temporary. The central bank meets on Tuesday and Wednesday.The central bank takes the main stage“I think the Fed would like not to be a feature next week, but the Fed will be forced from the background because of concerns about inflation,” said Diane Swonk, chief economist at Grant Thornton.The central bank is not expected to make any policy moves, but Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s press briefing following the meeting Wednesday will be closely watched.So far, the barrage of earnings news has been positive, with 86% of companies reporting earnings beats. Corporate profits are expected to be up about 33.9% for the first quarter, based on estimates and actual reports, according to Refinitiv. Revenues are about 9.9% higher.There is important inflation data Friday when the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge is reported.The personal consumption expenditure report is expected to show a 1.8% rise in core inflation, still below the Fed’s target of 2%. Other data releases include the first-quarter gross domestic product on Thursday, which is expected to have grown by 6.5%, according to Dow Jones.“I think the Fed has no urgency to shift monetary policy at this point,” said Ian Lyngen, head of U.S. rates strategy at BMO. “The Fed needs to acknowledge that the data is improving. We had a strong first quarter.”“The Fed needs to acknowledge that but at the same time they’re keeping extremely accommodative policy in place, so they’ll have to make a note to the fact that the easy policy is warranted,” he said.Lyngen said the Fed will likely point to continued concerns about the pandemic globally as a potential risk to the economic recovery.Powell is also expected to once more explain that the Fed will let inflation rise above its 2% target for a period of time before it raises rates so that the economy can have more time to heal. “It’s going to be a challenge for the Fed,” said Swonk.The base effects for the next several months will make inflation appear to have jumped sharply because of the comparison to a weak period last year. The consumer price index for April could be above 3%, compared to 2.6% last month, Swonk added.“The Fed is trying to let a lot more people get out onto the dance floor before it calls ‘last call,’” she said. “Really what Powell has been saying since day one is if we take care of people on the margins and bring them back into the labor force, the rest will take care of itself.”Stocks were slightly lower in the past week, and Treasury yields held at lower levels. The 10-year yield,which moves opposite price, was at 1.55% Friday.The S&P 500was down 0.1%, ending the week at 4,180, while Nasdaq Composite was down nearly 0.3% at 14,016. The Dow was off just shy of 0.5% at 34,043.Tax hike prospectsStocks were hit hard on Thursday when after a news report said that Biden is expected to propose a capital gains tax rate of 39.6% for people earning more than $1 million a year.Combined with the 3.8% net investment income tax, the new levy would more than double the long term capital gains rate of 20% or the richest Americans.Strategists said Biden is expected to propose raising the income tax rate for those earning more than $400,000.“I think a lot of people are starting to price in the risk there going to be a significant increase in both corporate and capital gains taxes,” said Lyngen.So far, companies have not provided much in the way of commentary on the proposed hike in corporate taxes to 28% from 21% but they have been talking about other costs.David Bianco, chief investment strategist for the Americas at DWS, said he expects larger companies will do better dealing with supply chain constraints than smaller ones. Big Tech is also likely to fare better during the semiconductor shortage than auto makers, which have already announced production shutdowns, he said.“Next week is tech week. I think we’re going to get down on our knees and just be in awe of their business models and their ability to grow at a behemoth scale,” Bianco said.He said he’s not in favor of Wall Street’s popular trade into cyclicals and out of growth. He still favors growth.“We’re overweight equities really because we’re concerned about rising interest rates,” Bianco said. “I’m not bullish in that I expect the market to rise that much from here.”“We stuck with growth and dug deeper into bond substitutes, utilities, staples, real estate,” he said, adding he is underweight industrials, energy and materials. “Energy is doomed. It’s being nationalized via regulation. I do like industrials, they are well-run companies, but I do think infrastructure spending expectations for classic infrastructure are too high.”He also said industrials are good businesses, but the stocks have become overvalued.Bianco said he likes big box stores, but smaller retailers are facing big challenges that were already impacting them prior to Covid. He also finds small biotech firms attractive.“I like healthcare stocks. Those valuations are reasonable. People have been paranoid about politicians beating on them since 1992.

It also plans a global ad campaign to support the repositioning starting this week.\nThe new brand positioning includes the tagline “It matters who you travel with,” which illustrates Expedia’s desire to be more of a travel companion that can support travelers get more out of their trips. The company said it will make its largest marketing spend in five years, but wouldn’t specify how much it will spend.\nThe change comes after the pandemic caused one of the toughest years ever for the travel industry. According to figures from the U.S. Travel Association, travel spend dropped 42%, or $500 billion, from 2019 to 2020. Spend totaled $679 billion in 2020. International travel plummeted 76%, while business travel fell 70%, it said. But as more consumers are vaccinated in the U.S. and restrictions ease, travel looks poised to make a major comeback: Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky told CNBC last week that it will need millions of new hosts to meet demand as travel picks up again.\nExpedia says it conducted research into what customers want in a travel company. Some of the updates include new packages that bundle flights with accommodations and activities with upfront total pricing, or an updated virtual agent that will help travelers, for instance, with health and hygiene information about hotels.\n“Expedia was founded in 1996. And that was an amazing moment, because what it did was, it turned every traveler, every consumer, into their own travel agent, and it was incredibly empowering,” said Shiv Singh, senior vice president and general manager of Expedia Brand.\n“It was a year of reckoning for the travel industry, because travel just literally fell off a cliff,” Singh said of 2020. “But ... it served as a moment for us to dig deep and understand and study and learn more about our consumers in a way we never had to need to in the past.”\nSingh said the company recognizes travel is becoming more of a conscious choice for consumers, one that is appreciated rather than taken for granted. The company also found in its study that the stay-at-home period has made consumers want to travel more. They’re yearning to get out of the house as long as they feel safe and comfortable doing so. And he said that customers are more sensitive to the kinds of experiences they have, both as it pertains to health and safety and in having memorable experiences.\nSingh said the company recognizes not everyone is not yet ready or desiring to travel.\n“We know thanks to Covid, expectations around travel and what it means to be the ultimate travel companion are different, and we want to serve that whether you’re ready and it’s safe to travel tomorrow morning, or whether that six months from now from now,” he said. “And whether that’s for a vacation to a beach, or a business trip, whatever it may be.”\nThe company is marking the repositioning with a global ad campaign, including a U.S. television spot starring Rashida Jones. The company worked with Publicis Groupe’s Saatchi & Saatchi on the campaign creative.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":350,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":373887766,"gmtCreate":1618839230755,"gmtModify":1704715639851,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Test&nbsp;","listText":"Test&nbsp;","text":"Test","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/373887766","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":321,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":370635239,"gmtCreate":1618580270721,"gmtModify":1704713021148,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Very nice&nbsp;","listText":"Very nice&nbsp;","text":"Very nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/370635239","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":304,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":347698192,"gmtCreate":1618491074416,"gmtModify":1704711636005,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Awesome&nbsp;","listText":"Awesome&nbsp;","text":"Awesome","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/347698192","repostId":"1170915040","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1170915040","pubTimestamp":1618487434,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170915040?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-15 19:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"GlaxoSmithKline gains on report of Elliott Management multibillion-pound stake","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1170915040","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"GlaxoSmithKline rose 5.3% in premarket trading on a report that activist Elliott management has a bu","content":"<p>GlaxoSmithKline&nbsp;rose 5.3%&nbsp;in premarket trading on a report that activist Elliott management has a built a multibillion-pound stake inthe drugmaker.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0698884951170c3c012414303aa45fc8\" tg-width=\"708\" tg-height=\"500\"></p>\n<p>The Elliott stake&nbsp;

This represents 17% upside from the high end of the IPO price range of $85. We have a POSITIVE view of the AppLovin IPO.</p><p>Our base case valuation of AppLovin is based on a 16x EV/S multiple (using 2021 sales estimate), which represents a 10% higher than the average EV/S multiple of the comps. It is also below the EV/S multiple of Unity Software and Roblox which trade at EV/S multiple of 26.8x and 19.2x, respectively.</p><p>The comps' average sales growth in 2020 and 2021 are similar to the sales growth rates of AppLovin in this period. Among the comps, Roblox has the highest sales growth and Activision has the lowest sales growth in 2020 and 2021. Overall, we have assumed higher sales growth for AppLovin versus its peers in 2021 and 2022 and this is one of main reasons why we have applied a 10% higher valuation multiple than the comps.</p><p>However, Roblox is trading at 19.2x EV/S in 2021 and we have applied a 16x EV/S multiple for AppLovin (17% lower valuation multiple than Roblox). We believe the market will attach a slightly higher valuation multiple for Roblox than AppLovin, mainly due to the former company's higher sales growth and operating margins in 2021, and its brand is more recognized worldwide.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b47032411f633c63c676152889baa874\" tg-width=\"553\" tg-height=\"350\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ea8b356b98201f398b48bd4d57e507a\" tg-width=\"552\" tg-height=\"455\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8a2dfe8877740e842bb1e143c157e39c\" tg-width=\"551\" tg-height=\"370\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0aec05aa4790c780a95e2527c62896e9\" tg-width=\"554\" tg-height=\"548\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8ee98f1dd0f1c0becb865f331a283068\" tg-width=\"550\" tg-height=\"340\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/96321e40b2bb290d968a20e0a3832de8\" tg-width=\"554\" tg-height=\"362\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/327d495d893132d12a74cc91d93df055\" tg-width=\"553\" tg-height=\"367\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><b>Income Statement Forecast</b></p><p>AppLovin generated sales of $1,451.1 million and an operating loss of $62.1 million in 2020.

In the advertising platform business, the company's major competitors include Facebook, Alphabet, and Amazon (AMZN). Many of these companies are also AppLovin's partners and customers. In addition to these mega companies, the company faces competition from thousands of smaller competitors worldwide.</p><p>Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Analysis</p><p>The company has a leveraged balance sheet. Net debt increased from $0.8 billion at the end of 2019 to $1.3 billion at the end of 2020. Net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio also rose from 260% at the end of 2019 to 315% at the end of 2020. After KKR invested in the company in 2018, it appears that AppLovin was advised to add more leverage and expand the business more aggressively through numerous acquisitions. Through this IPO, the company's balance sheet will become much stronger.</p><p>The company generated positive cash flow from operations and free cash flow in the past two years.

Our base case valuation of AppLovin is EV of $35.1 billion, implied market cap of $35.7 billion, and target price per share of $99.8, which is about 17% higher than the high end of the IPO price range. In recent months, some of the major game-related IPOs including Roblox and Unity Software have done really well, although their share prices have come down from their recent highs. AppLovin will likely be compared against these stocks.</p><p>Despite AppLovin's decline in operating margins in 2020 due to higher operating expenses, it is more likely that investors will focus on the company's ability to continue to scale up the business and generate higher sales growth. There remains some uncertainty in terms of how quickly the company is willing to focus on the probability at the expense of lower sales growth. In addition, there are some concerns about the recent weakening sentiment on the tech-related IPOs.</p>","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>AppLovin: Capitalizing On The Surging Growth Of Mobile Game Apps</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\">\nAppLovin: Capitalizing On The Surging Growth Of Mobile Game Apps\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-13 14:39 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4418129-applovin-capitalizing-growth-mobile-game-apps><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryAppLovin announced its IPO price range of $75 to $85 per share.

(RBLX)Activision Blizzard (ATVI)Zynga (ZNGA)Our base case valuation of AppLovin is an EV of $35.1 billion, implied market cap of $35.7 billion, and implied target price per share of $99.8. This represents 17% upside from the high end of the IPO price range of $85. We have a POSITIVE view of the AppLovin IPO.Our base case valuation of AppLovin is based on a 16x EV/S multiple (using 2021 sales estimate), which represents a 10% higher than the average EV/S multiple of the comps. It is also below the EV/S multiple of Unity Software and Roblox which trade at EV/S multiple of 26.8x and 19.2x, respectively.The comps' average sales growth in 2020 and 2021 are similar to the sales growth rates of AppLovin in this period. Among the comps, Roblox has the highest sales growth and Activision has the lowest sales growth in 2020 and 2021. Overall, we have assumed higher sales growth for AppLovin versus its peers in 2021 and 2022 and this is one of main reasons why we have applied a 10% higher valuation multiple than the comps.However, Roblox is trading at 19.2x EV/S in 2021 and we have applied a 16x EV/S multiple for AppLovin (17% lower valuation multiple than Roblox). We believe the market will attach a slightly higher valuation multiple for Roblox than AppLovin, mainly due to the former company's higher sales growth and operating margins in 2021, and its brand is more recognized worldwide.Income Statement ForecastAppLovin generated sales of $1,451.1 million and an operating loss of $62.1 million in 2020.

From 2020 to 2025, we have assumed the company's sales to grow at a CAGR of 28.6%. We have also assumed the company's operating margin to turn positive to 3% in 2021 from -4.3% in 2020. We estimate its operating margins to improve further to 6.8% in 2022, 10.6% in 2023, and 17.8% in 2025.

Consumer revenue is generated when the user of its apps makes an in-app purchase (IAP).The company's apps are mostly free-to-play mobile games and generate consumer revenue through in-app purchase of virtual items which are used to enhance gameplay and improve the probabilities of the mobile game progression opportunities.During the three months ended December 31, 2020, the company had an average of 2.1 million monthly active payers (MAPs) across its portfolio of apps. Over that period, the company had an average revenue per monthly active payer of $41.Major CompetitorsIn the mobile games and other mobile game app related businesses, the major competitors include Unity Software, Activision Blizzard, Tencent Holdings(OTCPK:TCEHY), and Zynga. In the advertising platform business, the company's major competitors include Facebook, Alphabet, and Amazon (AMZN). Many of these companies are also AppLovin's partners and customers. In addition to these mega companies, the company faces competition from thousands of smaller competitors worldwide.Balance Sheet and Cash Flow AnalysisThe company has a leveraged balance sheet. Net debt increased from $0.8 billion at the end of 2019 to $1.3 billion at the end of 2020. Net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio also rose from 260% at the end of 2019 to 315% at the end of 2020. After KKR invested in the company in 2018, it appears that AppLovin was advised to add more leverage and expand the business more aggressively through numerous acquisitions. Through this IPO, the company's balance sheet will become much stronger.The company generated positive cash flow from operations and free cash flow in the past two years. Its cash flow from operations and free cash flow averaged $211 million and $207 million, respectively, in 2019 and 2020.ConclusionAppLovin is one of the key beneficiaries of the surging growth of game-related mobile apps. Our base case valuation of AppLovin is EV of $35.1 billion, implied market cap of $35.7 billion, and target price per share of $99.8, which is about 17% higher than the high end of the IPO price range. In recent months, some of the major game-related IPOs including Roblox and Unity Software have done really well, although their share prices have come down from their recent highs. AppLovin will likely be compared against these stocks.Despite AppLovin's decline in operating margins in 2020 due to higher operating expenses, it is more likely that investors will focus on the company's ability to continue to scale up the business and generate higher sales growth. There remains some uncertainty in terms of how quickly the company is willing to focus on the probability at the expense of lower sales growth. In addition, there are some concerns about the recent weakening sentiment on the tech-related IPOs.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":276,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344015494,"gmtCreate":1618359875318,"gmtModify":1704709591561,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool&nbsp;","listText":"Cool&nbsp;","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/344015494","repostId":"1158833434","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158833434","pubTimestamp":1618358980,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1158833434?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-14 08:09","market":"sh","language":"en","title":"TikTok Founder's $60 Billion Fortune Places Him Among The World's Richest People","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158833434","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"ByteDance’s Zhang Yiming may soon be among world’s richest\nShares trade privately at valuation of mo","content":"<ul>\n <li>ByteDance’s Zhang Yiming may soon be among world’s richest</li>\n <li>Shares trade privately at valuation of more than $250 billion</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Just last year, the world’s most valuable startup,ByteDance Ltd., was being squeezed from all sides.</p>\n<p>The Trump administration wanted the Chinese firm, which owns the ubiquitous TikTok video-sharing platform, toget rid of assets.

The Nasdaq Composite, the relative outperformer, gained just over 1% to 13,996.1 as Apple and PayPal each added more than 2%. Semiconductor maker Nvidia climbed 3%, Tesla rose 8.6%.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 68.13 points, 0.2%, to close at 33,677.27 after dropping more than 150 points earlier in the session.\nReopening trades came under pressure Tuesday morning after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said it’s recommending a pause in the Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine after reported cases of blood clotting.\nThere have been six reported cases of a rare and severe type of blood clot after receiving the J&J vaccine, the FDA said. The administration is calling for a pause in the vaccine until Centers for Disease Control and Prevention concludes its investigation into these cases.\n“Until that process is complete, we are recommending this pause,” the FDA said. “This is important to ensure that the health care provider community is aware of the potential for these adverse events and can plan due to the unique treatment required with this type of blood clot.”\nActing FDA Commissioner Janet Woodcock said later Tuesday that she expects the pause to last “a matter of days.” More than 6.8 million doses of the single-dose vaccine have been administered in the U.S. J&J shares lost 1.3%.\nJeff Zients, the White House Covid-19 response coordinator, replied that the FDA’s announcement should not have a material impact on the national effort to vaccinate.\n“Over the last few weeks, we have made available more than 25 million doses of Pfizer and Moderna each week, and in fact this week we will make available 28 million doses of these vaccines,” he added. “This is more than enough supply to continue the current pace of vaccinations of 3 million shots per day, and meet the President’s goal of 200 million shots by his 100th day in office.”\nStill, shares of companies that would be hurt the most if the vaccine rollout slows underperformed Tuesday.\nAlaska Air and American Airlines both lost 1.5%; car-rental company Avis Budget shed nearly 1%. Shares of Moderna, which makes another coronavirus vaccine, jumped 7.4% following the J&J news, which was reported first by The New York Times.\n“I don’t think there’s going to be a huge reaction in the market beyond the knee-jerk reaction we’re getting here right now,” said Mike Wilson, chief U.S. equity strategist for Morgan Stanley, on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.” “We’re optimistic, very optimistic that we’re going to be reopened fully in the second half of this year.”\nThe consumer price index, one of Wall Street’s most-popular inflation gauges, rose 0.6% in March and increased 2.6% from the same period a year ago. Economists polled by Dow Jones were projecting the headline index to rise by 0.5% month over month and 2.5% year over year.\nCore CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy costs, increased 0.3% monthly and 1.6% year over year.\nGovernment officials, including Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Sunday and Biden administration economists on Monday, stressed that while they expect a jump in inflation in the months ahead, the change could prove temporary due to comparisons with last year’s pandemic lockdowns and extra consumer spending from stimulus checks and pent-up demand.\nPrivate sector strategists and economists also said that the reading may not be a true gauge of rising prices. Fed officials said they are willing to let inflation run hot for a period of time without changing their accommodative policy stance, including asset purchases and a benchmark interest near zero.\n“US equities are drifting slightly higher Tuesday as investors digest a higher-than-expected inflation in the CPI report and position ahead of 1Q21 earnings, which start on Wednesday,” Chris Hussey, a managing director at Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note.\n“Underneath the surface, the market is assuming a defensive posture today led by mega-cap Tech and the bond proxies -- Utilities and Real Estate,” he added.\nThe market has been calm over the past week as Wall Street settled into a lull ahead of the first-quarter earnings season. Corporate news is set to pick up later in the week, with JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and Delta Air Lines among the companies set to report quarterly results.\nThe bond market was also subdued on Tuesday, with the 10-year Treasury yield edging lower to just above 1.62%. Yields move inversely to prices.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":225,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":345362328,"gmtCreate":1618279790764,"gmtModify":1704708512550,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool&nbsp;","listText":"Cool&nbsp;","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/345362328","repostId":"1146450605","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1146450605","pubTimestamp":1618271053,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1146450605?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-13 07:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 closes flat near record high in another muted session ahead of key inflation data","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1146450605","media":"CNBC","summary":"U.S. stocks hovered near their record levels on Monday as dull trading resumed before the release of","content":"<div>\n<p>U.S. stocks hovered near their record levels on Monday as dull trading resumed before the release of widely-watched inflation data and the start of first-quarter corporate earnings.The S&P 500 dipped ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/11/stock-market-futures-open-to-close-news.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 55.20 points, or 0.2%, to 33,745.40, also falling from a record high. Intel was the biggest decliner in the blue-chip Dow, dropping more than 4%. The Nasdaq Composite fell 0.4% to 13,850.00.Wall Street has been relatively quiet with the S&P 500 moving within 1% for five sessions in a row. Market volatility has declined to pre-pandemic levels amid rising reopening optimism. The Cboe Volatility Index, AKA the VIX or the market’s fear gauge, has traded below 18 for the past four days, a level unseen since February 2020.Shares of Nuance Communications jumped nearly 16% after Microsoft announced it will buy the speech recognition company in a $16 billion deal.The Nuance acquisition represents Microsoft’s largest acquisition since it bought LinkedIn for more than $26 billion in 2016.Nvidia jumped 5.6% after the chip giant said it first quarter revenue for fiscal 2022 is tracking above its previously provided outlook and that it expects demand to continue to exceed supply for much of this year.Nvidia plans new chip to compete with intel in data-center market.The weakness in reopening plays weighed on the overall market with shares of Carnival and Norwegian Cruise Line off more than 4% each. United Airlines fell 3.9% after the carrier said its first-quarter revenue is expected to fall 66% compared with the same period in 2019. The new guidance fell near the top of the range between 65% and 70% that the company had previously forecast.“Amid new highs it’s not surprising for the market to be moving somewhat in a holding pattern of late,” said Chris Larkin,managing director of trading and investing product at E-Trade. “All eyes will likely be on the CPI read tomorrow for a benchmark on where we stand on the inflation front. And of course we’re ushering in earnings season which could be a catalyst for market moves over the next few weeks.”The first-quarter earnings reporting season begins this week, with expectations set for broadly positive news and an uptrend for U.S. equities thanks to a recovering economy. Many of the nation’s largest banks, including Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase will this week report results for the three months ended March 31.This week is also packed with Federal Reserve speeches and key economic data including a hotly anticipated inflation readingTuesday, when the U.S. consumer price index is released. Economists polled by Dow Jones anticipate a 0.5% gain in CPI month over month and a 2.5% increase from last year’s level.Tesla gained 3.7% to above $700 Monday after Canaccord Genuity upgraded the stock to buy and raised its price target to $1,071, citing its battery innovations.Fed Chairman Jerome Powell on Sunday reiterated that the Fed wants to see inflation rise above its 2% for an extended period before officials move to raise interest rates.“We want to see inflation move up to 2% — and we mean that on a sustainable basis, we don’t mean just tap the base once,” Powell said in an interview that aired Sunday evening on CBS News’ “60 Minutes.” “But then we’d also like to see it on track to move moderately above 2% for some time.”He added that amid an accelerated Covid-19 vaccine rollout and strong fiscal support, the U.S. economy appears to be at a turning point.Powell will also speak Wednesday at an Economic Club of Washington event.Investors will also keep an eye on President Joe Biden’s effort to advance a major infrastructure proposal known as the American Jobs Plan. Biden, who with other Democrats promised significant an infrastructure overhaul in the 2020 elections, wil lmeet with a bipartisan group of lawmakers on Monday to try to persuade Capitol Hill to back the $2 trillion package.Congress will return to Washington this week and be in session for the first time since Biden debuted his proposal, which earmarks hundreds of billions of dollars for roads, bridges, airports, broadband, electric vehicles, housing and job training.The president’s plan would also increase the corporate tax rate to 28% and crack down on other overseas tax avoidance strategies.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":309,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":103613863,"gmtCreate":1619775535752,"gmtModify":1704272194809,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool&nbsp;","listText":"Cool&nbsp;","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/103613863","repostId":"1114385387","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":534,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":340319842,"gmtCreate":1617338366786,"gmtModify":1704698974190,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"&nbsp;Very nice&nbsp;","listText":"&nbsp;Very nice&nbsp;","text":"Very nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/340319842","repostId":"1184918741","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1184918741","pubTimestamp":1617330742,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1184918741?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-02 10:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Compass CEO Who Pivoted From Goldman to Tech Reaps IPO Gain","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1184918741","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"(Bloomberg) -- Compass Inc. Chief Executive Officer Robert Reffkin started his career working in the","content":"<p>(Bloomberg) -- Compass Inc. Chief Executive Officer Robert Reffkin started his career working in the inner sanctums of American power, from McKinsey &amp; Co. to the White House to Goldman Sachs Group Inc. But it was a real estate startup that vaulted him to the ranks of the ultrarich.</p><p>Compass, the tech-focused brokerage that Reffkin co-founded in 2012, raised $450 million in an initial public offering Wednesday. The sale was cut in half from the company’s prior target as tech shares sank this week, and it priced at the low end of a reduced range with investor enthusiasm waning for high-flying startups that got a boost from Covid-related demand.</p><p>Now Reffkin, whose company has yet to turn a profit, must show that his investments in tech talent can justify Compass’s valuation.</p><p>“It’s been a very challenging market environment, I’m very happy we were able to realize our goal successfully,” Reffkin said in an interview. “The goal was never a valuation -- the goal was a successful capital raise and with today’s IPO we’ve raised hundreds of millions of dollars from great investors.”</p><p>The stock rose 12% from its $18 IPO price to close at $20.15 in its trading debut Thursday, giving the company a market value of $7.8 billion.</p><p>Fueled by funding from SoftBank Group Corp., the New York-based firm has grown into the second-largest brokerage in the U.S. It has benefited from a pandemic-driven housing boom and soaring investor demand for real estate-related technology.</p><p>But skeptics say it has yet to differentiate itself from traditional real estate companies or create a path toward making money. Reffkin said the new capital from the IPO will help the company turn a profit.</p><p>“We have a clear path to profitability,” Reffkin said. “We’re still going to grow fast, but we’re growing more efficiently.”</p><p>Reffkin’s roughly 6% stake in Compass was valued at $472 million at the IPO price. He stands to receive another 14.9 million shares in coming years contingent on tenure and share performance, which would boost his stake by about 50%.</p><p>That makes him one of corporate America’s wealthiest Black entrepreneurs, and one of only three Black founders to have taken their venture-backed companies public in the last decade, according to Crunchbase.</p><p>Compass recorded $270 million in losses last year, even as its revenue soared 56% to $3.7 billion. Realogy Holdings Corp., owner of the Coldwell Banker and Century 21 brands, has almost twice the annual revenue and a market value of just $1.8 billion. The company was valued at $6.4 billion in its last funding round in 2019.</p><p>“There’s no doubt that the growth has been extraordinary,” Clelia Warburg Peters, a venture partner at Bain Capital Ventures, said of Compass. “Is that a sign of innovation, or a sign that Rob brought investment-banking style aggressiveness into a sleepy industry?”</p><p>‘Underserved’ Agents</p><p>Reffkin, 41, describes Compass as a company designed to elevate real estate agents, who work as independent contractors under its brand. In a letter to potential investors, he said the group is “remarkably underserved,” despite playing a central role in the $2 trillion U.S. housing industry.</p><p>He was inspired by his mother Ruth, a single parent who supported the family by working as a real estate agent. She “didn’t have the right tools or support” to build her business, he wrote.</p><p>Reffkin’s early career, by contrast, was marked by a procession through America’s most storied institutions, including Columbia Business School, the Obama administration and a stint at Goldman, where he served as chief of staff to Gary Cohn, the bank’s president at the time. He founded a nonprofit called America Needs You, to help first-generation college students, and ran marathons in all 50 U.S. states to raise $1 million for charities.</p><p>In 2012, as tech was emerging as alternative to Wall Street as place for the young and ambitious to seek riches, Reffkin and Ori Allon, a software engineer who had sold his previous startups to Google and Twitter Inc., decided to launch a company together, going on to raise money from the likes of Josh Kushner’s Thrive Capital and former American Express Co. CEO Ken Chenault.</p><p>Armed with capital, Reffkin and Allon hit on a two-pronged approach. Compass hired coders to build software to help its agents run their businesses more efficiently. Over time they assembled a staff of 650 product and engineering professionals and hired a top artificial intelligence executive from Microsoft Corp.</p><p>Compass also dangled rich incentives to recruit agents from competitors, offering top performers stock options and the opportunity to keep a greater share of their commission revenue. At the same time, the company went on a buying spree as it ramped up its business in San Francisco and other markets.</p><p>Its critics say that Compass acquired growth without demonstrating the ability to improve margins and it will need to reduce compensation -- and risk alienating agents -- in order to profit.

Chief Executive Officer Robert Reffkin started his career working in the inner sanctums of American power, from McKinsey & Co. to the White House to Goldman Sachs Group Inc. But it was a real estate startup that vaulted him to the ranks of the ultrarich.Compass, the tech-focused brokerage that Reffkin co-founded in 2012, raised $450 million in an initial public offering Wednesday. The sale was cut in half from the company’s prior target as tech shares sank this week, and it priced at the low end of a reduced range with investor enthusiasm waning for high-flying startups that got a boost from Covid-related demand.Now Reffkin, whose company has yet to turn a profit, must show that his investments in tech talent can justify Compass’s valuation.“It’s been a very challenging market environment, I’m very happy we were able to realize our goal successfully,” Reffkin said in an interview. “The goal was never a valuation -- the goal was a successful capital raise and with today’s IPO we’ve raised hundreds of millions of dollars from great investors.”The stock rose 12% from its $18 IPO price to close at $20.15 in its trading debut Thursday, giving the company a market value of $7.8 billion.Fueled by funding from SoftBank Group Corp., the New York-based firm has grown into the second-largest brokerage in the U.S. It has benefited from a pandemic-driven housing boom and soaring investor demand for real estate-related technology.But skeptics say it has yet to differentiate itself from traditional real estate companies or create a path toward making money. Reffkin said the new capital from the IPO will help the company turn a profit.“We have a clear path to profitability,” Reffkin said. “We’re still going to grow fast, but we’re growing more efficiently.”Reffkin’s roughly 6% stake in Compass was valued at $472 million at the IPO price. He stands to receive another 14.9 million shares in coming years contingent on tenure and share performance, which would boost his stake by about 50%.That makes him one of corporate America’s wealthiest Black entrepreneurs, and one of only three Black founders to have taken their venture-backed companies public in the last decade, according to Crunchbase.Compass recorded $270 million in losses last year, even as its revenue soared 56% to $3.7 billion. Realogy Holdings Corp., owner of the Coldwell Banker and Century 21 brands, has almost twice the annual revenue and a market value of just $1.8 billion. The company was valued at $6.4 billion in its last funding round in 2019.“There’s no doubt that the growth has been extraordinary,” Clelia Warburg Peters, a venture partner at Bain Capital Ventures, said of Compass. “Is that a sign of innovation, or a sign that Rob brought investment-banking style aggressiveness into a sleepy industry?”‘Underserved’ AgentsReffkin, 41, describes Compass as a company designed to elevate real estate agents, who work as independent contractors under its brand. In a letter to potential investors, he said the group is “remarkably underserved,” despite playing a central role in the $2 trillion U.S. housing industry.He was inspired by his mother Ruth, a single parent who supported the family by working as a real estate agent. She “didn’t have the right tools or support” to build her business, he wrote.Reffkin’s early career, by contrast, was marked by a procession through America’s most storied institutions, including Columbia Business School, the Obama administration and a stint at Goldman, where he served as chief of staff to Gary Cohn, the bank’s president at the time. He founded a nonprofit called America Needs You, to help first-generation college students, and ran marathons in all 50 U.S. states to raise $1 million for charities.In 2012, as tech was emerging as alternative to Wall Street as place for the young and ambitious to seek riches, Reffkin and Ori Allon, a software engineer who had sold his previous startups to Google and Twitter Inc., decided to launch a company together, going on to raise money from the likes of Josh Kushner’s Thrive Capital and former American Express Co. CEO Ken Chenault.Armed with capital, Reffkin and Allon hit on a two-pronged approach. Compass hired coders to build software to help its agents run their businesses more efficiently. Over time they assembled a staff of 650 product and engineering professionals and hired a top artificial intelligence executive from Microsoft Corp.Compass also dangled rich incentives to recruit agents from competitors, offering top performers stock options and the opportunity to keep a greater share of their commission revenue. At the same time, the company went on a buying spree as it ramped up its business in San Francisco and other markets.Its critics say that Compass acquired growth without demonstrating the ability to improve margins and it will need to reduce compensation -- and risk alienating agents -- in order to profit. Doubts about its strategy grew loud enough that Chief Financial Officer Kristen Ankerbrandt penned a companywide email highlighting eight ways the company wasn’t like its fellow SoftBank-backed real estate startup, WeWork.Reffkin’s rise is notable in other ways. Black Americans are strikingly underrepresented among the ultrawealthy. Out of the 156 Americans ranked on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, only one -- private equity magnate Robert Smith -- is Black.“It’s a long journey for any CEO and, candidly, it is much longer and more arduous for CEOs of color,” said Tyler Scriven, who leads the startup Saltbox. “Robert, having successfully brought such an incredibly ambitious company to market, provides one the best such examples that we’ve seen in generations.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":390,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":167440530,"gmtCreate":1624283264820,"gmtModify":1703832394425,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/167440530","repostId":"1154249454","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154249454","pubTimestamp":1624230573,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1154249454?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-21 07:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nike, FedEx, Johnson & Johnson, Darden, and Other Stocks for Investors to Watch This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154249454","media":"barrons","summary":"A handful of notable companies will release their latest results toward the end of this week.Nike,FedEx,andDarden Restaurantswill report on Thursday, followed by CarMax and Paychex on Friday.

Either way, the cryptocurrency is working itself into the mainstream financial world, achieving the scale and critical mass that may make it increasingly difficult to dislodge or restrain.\nWith its market value hovering around $1 trillion, Bitcoin (BTC) has become too large and influential to remain on the financial fringes. Wall Street is pumping out reports on cryptos. Piper Sandler issued a 30-page report on Thursday, noting that the “crypto-economy could be entering a pivotal point in its development/lifecycle.”\nCoinbase Global, the largest U.S. crypto exchange and custodian, says it plans to go public on April 14 in what may be the largest tech IPO since Facebook(ticker: FB) in 2012. Private valuations peg Coinbase at $68 billion. The firm custodies an estimated $90 billion in crypto assets on its platform. It had revenue of $1.3 billion in 2020 and profits of $322 million, according to a regulatory filing.\nFintechs see Bitcoin and other cryptos as a vast new market for payments and transaction services.Visasays it plans to settle transactions in a “stablecoin,” USD Coin (USDC). About $10 billion of USDC is now circulating, according to Visa, which sees it used for everything from buying a cup of coffee to cross-border payments, trade settlements, or foreign money transfers. Stablecoins are like digital dollars, pegged in value to the buck.\nOther votes of confidence in Bitcoin are coming fromTesla(TSLA),PayPal Holdings(PYPL) andSquare(SQ), all of which are now offering ways to transact in Bitcoin or other cryptos.\nAnd there are expanding ways to invest, including derivatives, stocks and holding companies like the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC). Fund sponsors are also angling to launch a U.S.-listed exchange-traded fund (catching up to Canada, where Bitcoin ETFs recently started trading).\nU.S. fund sponsors filing for approvals recently include Fidelity Investments, VanEck,WisdomTree Investments(WETF), SkyBridge Capital, Valkyrie Digital Assets, and NYDIG Asset Management, according to Piper Sandler.\nThe Securities and Exchange Commission has so far declined to approve a Bitcoin ETF, citing concerns about volatility, price transparency, and market manipulation.

The new guidance fell near the top of the range between 65% and 70% that the company had previously forecast.“Amid new highs it’s not surprising for the market to be moving somewhat in a holding pattern of late,” said Chris Larkin,managing director of trading and investing product at E-Trade. “All eyes will likely be on the CPI read tomorrow for a benchmark on where we stand on the inflation front. And of course we’re ushering in earnings season which could be a catalyst for market moves over the next few weeks.”The first-quarter earnings reporting season begins this week, with expectations set for broadly positive news and an uptrend for U.S. equities thanks to a recovering economy. Many of the nation’s largest banks, including Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase will this week report results for the three months ended March 31.This week is also packed with Federal Reserve speeches and key economic data including a hotly anticipated inflation readingTuesday, when the U.S. consumer price index is released. Economists polled by Dow Jones anticipate a 0.5% gain in CPI month over month and a 2.5% increase from last year’s level.Tesla gained 3.7% to above $700 Monday after Canaccord Genuity upgraded the stock to buy and raised its price target to $1,071, citing its battery innovations.Fed Chairman Jerome Powell on Sunday reiterated that the Fed wants to see inflation rise above its 2% for an extended period before officials move to raise interest rates.“We want to see inflation move up to 2% — and we mean that on a sustainable basis, we don’t mean just tap the base once,” Powell said in an interview that aired Sunday evening on CBS News’ “60 Minutes.” “But then we’d also like to see it on track to move moderately above 2% for some time.”He added that amid an accelerated Covid-19 vaccine rollout and strong fiscal support, the U.S. economy appears to be at a turning point.Powell will also speak Wednesday at an Economic Club of Washington event.Investors will also keep an eye on President Joe Biden’s effort to advance a major infrastructure proposal known as the American Jobs Plan. Biden, who with other Democrats promised significant an infrastructure overhaul in the 2020 elections, wil lmeet with a bipartisan group of lawmakers on Monday to try to persuade Capitol Hill to back the $2 trillion package.Congress will return to Washington this week and be in session for the first time since Biden debuted his proposal, which earmarks hundreds of billions of dollars for roads, bridges, airports, broadband, electric vehicles, housing and job training.The president’s plan would also increase the corporate tax rate to 28% and crack down on other overseas tax avoidance strategies.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":309,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":157561450,"gmtCreate":1625590296070,"gmtModify":1703744582453,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/157561450","repostId":"2147181921","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2147181921","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":1625584140,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2147181921?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-06 23:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Luckin Coffee shares continuously rise after restatement of 2019 financial results.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2147181921","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Luckin Coffee rose 11% On Tuesday, and has surged more than 50% in the past week.\n\nLuckin Coffee rel","content":"<p>Luckin Coffee&nbsp;rose&nbsp;11%&nbsp;On Tuesday, and&nbsp;has&nbsp;surged&nbsp;more&nbsp;than&nbsp;50% in the past&nbsp;week.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c73cfd66ba216cf812a82753ece61c49\" tg-width=\"782\" tg-height=\"592\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Luckin Coffee released its&nbsp;audited 2019 financial statementson the evening of June 30, detailing thefraudcommitted by the company more than two years ago andadmitted to in April 2020.</p>\n<p>The report shows Luckin Coffee’s fraudulent transactions began as early as April 2019, while it inflated operating income by RMB 2.12 billion (USD 327.7 million) for the entirety of 2019.

The companysaid on Wednesdaythat it currently operates more than 5,200 stores throughout China.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":406,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":123929764,"gmtCreate":1624407030058,"gmtModify":1703835605596,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/123929764","repostId":"2145664330","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2145664330","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":1624403123,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2145664330?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 07:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tech leads way to Wall Street rebound as Powell promises steady hand","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2145664330","media":"Reuters","summary":"WASHINGTON, June 22 (Reuters) - Wall Street rebounded Tuesday as Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Pow","content":"<p>WASHINGTON, June 22 (Reuters) - Wall Street rebounded Tuesday as Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell vowed not to raise rates too quickly as the dollar and oil gave up earlier gains.</p>\n<p>Led by the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite , Wall Street closed Tuesday higher, bouncing back from a sell-off set off last week by a Fed policy update that suggested officials believed rates would rise more quickly to counter rising inflation.</p>\n<p>The Nasdaq closed at another record high, as top-shelf tech companies resumed their growth trajectories.</p>\n<p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 68.61 points, or 0.2% and the S&amp;P 500 gained 21.65 points, or 0.51%. to 4,246.44 and the Nasdaq Composite added 111.79 points, or 0.79 percent, to 14,253.27.</p>\n<p>The MSCI world equity index , which tracks shares in 45 nations, rose 4.4 points or 0.62%.</p>\n<p>\"I really think there's a realization that this is a ripe environment: rates are still low and for stock investors, this hits a 'just right' tone,\" said Patrick Leary, chief market strategist at Incapital. \"The market is concerned about rising inflation numbers and was getting more unnerved as the Fed dismissed them until last week’s meeting.\"</p>\n<p>Testifying before Congress, Powell vowed that the Fed will not raise rates out of fear of potential rising inflation, and instead will prioritize a \"broad and inclusive\" recovery of the job market.

Both the&nbsp;<b>Dow Jones Industrial Average</b>&nbsp;(DJINDICES:^DJI) and the&nbsp;<b>S&amp;P 500</b>(SNPINDEX:^GSPC) gained over 1% and are sitting at all-time highs as we begin the second quarter of 2021.</p>\n<p>Several popular companies will announce earnings results over the next few days. That list includes&nbsp;<b>Constellation Brands</b>(NYSE:STZ),<b>Levi Strauss</b>(NYSE:LEVI), and&nbsp;<b>Simply Good Foods</b>(NASDAQ:SMPL), whose reports we'll preview.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6284f8358584c0adc96248eeb88854c\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p><b>1. Constellation Brands' outlook</b></p>\n<p>Constellation Brands will close out its fiscal year with a fourth-quarter earnings report on Thursday, and investors are hoping to hear good news from the alcoholic-beverage giant. Its last quarterly update showed surprisingly strong sales growth as robust home beer consumption offset slumping demand at bars and restaurants. Along with&nbsp;<b>Boston Beer</b>, Constellation Brands accounted for most of the industry's growth in 2020.</p>\n<p>This week's report should contain more evidence of strong growth in imported beer brands like Modelo and Pacifico, along with modest success in the company's Corona hard-seltzer launch that competes directly with Boston Beer's Truly franchise. Sales gains will slow compared with last quarter because of shipping and inventory shifts, but Constellation Brands' consumption metric should still be solidly positive.</p>\n<p>Yet the stock's movement might depend on the fiscal 2022 outlook that CEO Bill Newlands and his team issue on Thursday. That forecast might include optimism for the beer division and the newly transformed wine and spirits segment, along with some potentially big opportunities in the recreational-marijuana space.</p>\n<p><b>2. Simply Good Foods' organic sales</b></p>\n<p>Simply Good Foods' stock has outperformed the market's rally since the COVID-19 lows, which sets a high bar for its Wednesday second-quarter earnings report. Heading into the announcement, most investors are expecting the health-focused food and snack specialist to post strong growth, with sales likely to land at around $230 million.</p>\n<p>Management's recent acquisition of the Quest Nutrition franchise might add noise to that figure, but CEO Joseph Scalzo and his team should detail their organic sales estimate this week, too. Growth by that metric was in the mid-single digits, the company said in early January.</p>\n<p>For the stock to keep rallying deeper into 2021, Simply Good Foods will need to show steady demand in its Atkins and Quest brands that continues even as the pandemic threat declines. And investors are hoping that profitability will improve thanks to the higher sales base. Look for management to issue more-detailed guidance on both these figures as part of Wednesday's earnings report.</p>\n<p><b>3. Levi Strauss' 2021 forecast</b></p>\n<p>Jeanswear specialist Levi Strauss will announce its fiscal first-quarter results on Thursday afternoon. The stock jumped in the past year, but many investors see an opportunity for even bigger gains ahead.</p>\n<p>That bullish thesis depends on the company's further differentiating its small but quickly growing e-commerce platform.

Both the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES:^DJI) and the S&P 500(SNPINDEX:^GSPC) gained over 1% and are sitting at all-time highs as we begin the second quarter of 2021.\nSeveral popular companies will announce earnings results over the next few days. That list includes Constellation Brands(NYSE:STZ),Levi Strauss(NYSE:LEVI), and Simply Good Foods(NASDAQ:SMPL), whose reports we'll preview.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Constellation Brands' outlook\nConstellation Brands will close out its fiscal year with a fourth-quarter earnings report on Thursday, and investors are hoping to hear good news from the alcoholic-beverage giant. Its last quarterly update showed surprisingly strong sales growth as robust home beer consumption offset slumping demand at bars and restaurants. Along with Boston Beer, Constellation Brands accounted for most of the industry's growth in 2020.\nThis week's report should contain more evidence of strong growth in imported beer brands like Modelo and Pacifico, along with modest success in the company's Corona hard-seltzer launch that competes directly with Boston Beer's Truly franchise. Sales gains will slow compared with last quarter because of shipping and inventory shifts, but Constellation Brands' consumption metric should still be solidly positive.\nYet the stock's movement might depend on the fiscal 2022 outlook that CEO Bill Newlands and his team issue on Thursday. That forecast might include optimism for the beer division and the newly transformed wine and spirits segment, along with some potentially big opportunities in the recreational-marijuana space.\n2. Simply Good Foods' organic sales\nSimply Good Foods' stock has outperformed the market's rally since the COVID-19 lows, which sets a high bar for its Wednesday second-quarter earnings report. Heading into the announcement, most investors are expecting the health-focused food and snack specialist to post strong growth, with sales likely to land at around $230 million.\nManagement's recent acquisition of the Quest Nutrition franchise might add noise to that figure, but CEO Joseph Scalzo and his team should detail their organic sales estimate this week, too. Growth by that metric was in the mid-single digits, the company said in early January.\nFor the stock to keep rallying deeper into 2021, Simply Good Foods will need to show steady demand in its Atkins and Quest brands that continues even as the pandemic threat declines. And investors are hoping that profitability will improve thanks to the higher sales base. Look for management to issue more-detailed guidance on both these figures as part of Wednesday's earnings report.\n3. Levi Strauss' 2021 forecast\nJeanswear specialist Levi Strauss will announce its fiscal first-quarter results on Thursday afternoon. The stock jumped in the past year, but many investors see an opportunity for even bigger gains ahead.\nThat bullish thesis depends on the company's further differentiating its small but quickly growing e-commerce platform. Levi Strauss is also aiming to diversify into complementary categories outside its core denim focus. Progress in these two areas might remove some of the sting from weak sales, which are expected to fall by 17% this quarter compared with last quarter's 12% slump.\nThe stock's price rally in recent months means investors will be looking for management to issue a positive outlook for 2021 following last year's 23% sales decline. Watch executives' inventory update for a clue on which way demand and pricing trends are heading after a tough holiday season.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":215,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":374698736,"gmtCreate":1619443025925,"gmtModify":1704723926149,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/374698736","repostId":"1184404050","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1184404050","pubTimestamp":1619319329,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1184404050?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-25 10:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What to watch in the markets this week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1184404050","media":"CNBC","summary":"The last week of April will be extremely busy for markets with a third of the S&P 500 reporting earnings, a Federal Reserve meeting, and new spending and tax proposals from the White House.Big Tech is a highlight of the earnings calendar, with Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook and Alphabet all releasing results.The Fed is not expected to take any action, but economists expect it to defend its policy to let inflation run hot.There is some key data including first-quarter gross domestic product a","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTSThe last week of April will be extremely busy for markets with a third of the S&P 500 reporting earnings, a Federal Reserve meeting, and new spending and tax proposals from the White House....</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/23/taxes-and-inflation-will-be-key-themes-for-markets-in-the-week-ahead.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The president addresses a joint session of Congress Wednesday evening.It’s a huge week for earnings with about a third of the S&P 500 reporting, including Big Tech names, such as Apple,Microsoft,Alphabet and Amazon.As many have already done, firms like Boeing, Ford,Caterpillar and McDonald’s, are likely to detail cost pressures they are facing from rising materials and transportation costs and supply chain disruptions.At the same time, the Fed is expected to defend its policy of letting inflation run hot, while assuring markets it sees the pick-up in prices as only temporary. The central bank meets on Tuesday and Wednesday.The central bank takes the main stage“I think the Fed would like not to be a feature next week, but the Fed will be forced from the background because of concerns about inflation,” said Diane Swonk, chief economist at Grant Thornton.The central bank is not expected to make any policy moves, but Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s press briefing following the meeting Wednesday will be closely watched.So far, the barrage of earnings news has been positive, with 86% of companies reporting earnings beats. Corporate profits are expected to be up about 33.9% for the first quarter, based on estimates and actual reports, according to Refinitiv. Revenues are about 9.9% higher.There is important inflation data Friday when the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge is reported.The personal consumption expenditure report is expected to show a 1.8% rise in core inflation, still below the Fed’s target of 2%. Other data releases include the first-quarter gross domestic product on Thursday, which is expected to have grown by 6.5%, according to Dow Jones.“I think the Fed has no urgency to shift monetary policy at this point,” said Ian Lyngen, head of U.S. rates strategy at BMO. “The Fed needs to acknowledge that the data is improving. We had a strong first quarter.”“The Fed needs to acknowledge that but at the same time they’re keeping extremely accommodative policy in place, so they’ll have to make a note to the fact that the easy policy is warranted,” he said.Lyngen said the Fed will likely point to continued concerns about the pandemic globally as a potential risk to the economic recovery.Powell is also expected to once more explain that the Fed will let inflation rise above its 2% target for a period of time before it raises rates so that the economy can have more time to heal. “It’s going to be a challenge for the Fed,” said Swonk.The base effects for the next several months will make inflation appear to have jumped sharply because of the comparison to a weak period last year. The consumer price index for April could be above 3%, compared to 2.6% last month, Swonk added.“The Fed is trying to let a lot more people get out onto the dance floor before it calls ‘last call,’” she said. “Really what Powell has been saying since day one is if we take care of people on the margins and bring them back into the labor force, the rest will take care of itself.”Stocks were slightly lower in the past week, and Treasury yields held at lower levels. The 10-year yield,which moves opposite price, was at 1.55% Friday.The S&P 500was down 0.1%, ending the week at 4,180, while Nasdaq Composite was down nearly 0.3% at 14,016. The Dow was off just shy of 0.5% at 34,043.Tax hike prospectsStocks were hit hard on Thursday when after a news report said that Biden is expected to propose a capital gains tax rate of 39.6% for people earning more than $1 million a year.Combined with the 3.8% net investment income tax, the new levy would more than double the long term capital gains rate of 20% or the richest Americans.Strategists said Biden is expected to propose raising the income tax rate for those earning more than $400,000.“I think a lot of people are starting to price in the risk there going to be a significant increase in both corporate and capital gains taxes,” said Lyngen.So far, companies have not provided much in the way of commentary on the proposed hike in corporate taxes to 28% from 21% but they have been talking about other costs.David Bianco, chief investment strategist for the Americas at DWS, said he expects larger companies will do better dealing with supply chain constraints than smaller ones. Big Tech is also likely to fare better during the semiconductor shortage than auto makers, which have already announced production shutdowns, he said.“Next week is tech week. I think we’re going to get down on our knees and just be in awe of their business models and their ability to grow at a behemoth scale,” Bianco said.He said he’s not in favor of Wall Street’s popular trade into cyclicals and out of growth. He still favors growth.“We’re overweight equities really because we’re concerned about rising interest rates,” Bianco said. “I’m not bullish in that I expect the market to rise that much from here.”“We stuck with growth and dug deeper into bond substitutes, utilities, staples, real estate,” he said, adding he is underweight industrials, energy and materials. “Energy is doomed. It’s being nationalized via regulation. I do like industrials, they are well-run companies, but I do think infrastructure spending expectations for classic infrastructure are too high.”He also said industrials are good businesses, but the stocks have become overvalued.Bianco said he likes big box stores, but smaller retailers are facing big challenges that were already impacting them prior to Covid. He also finds small biotech firms attractive.“I like healthcare stocks. Those valuations are reasonable. People have been paranoid about politicians beating on them since 1992. They manage through it and lately they’ve been delivering,” he said.Week ahead calendarMondayEarnings:Tesla,Canadian National Railway, Canon,Check Point Software,Otis Worldwide, Vale,Ameriprise,NXP Semiconductor,Albertsons, Royal Phillips8:30 a.m. Durable goodsTuesdayFOMC begins two day meetingEarnings:Microsoft,Alphabet,Visa,Amgen,Advanced Micro Devices,3M,General Electric,Eli Lilly, Hasbro,United Parcel Service,BP,Novartis,JetBlue,Pultegroup,Archer Daniels Midland,Waste Management,Starbucks,Texas Instrument,Chubb,Mondelez,FireEye,Corning,Raytheon9:00 a.m. S&P/Case-Shiller9:00 a.m. FHFA home prices10:00 a.m. Consumer confidence10:00 a.m. Housing vacanciesWednesdayEarnings:Apple, Boeing,Facebook,Qualcomm,Ford,MGM Resorts,Humana,Norfolk Southern,General Dynamics,Boston Scientific, eBay, Samsung Electronics, GlaxoSmithKline,Yum Brands, SiriusXM, Aflac,Cheesecake Factory,Community Health System,CIT Group,Entergy,CME Group,Hess,Ryder System8:30 a.m. Advance economic indicators2:00 p.m. Fed statement2:30 p.m. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell briefingThursdayEarnings:Amazon,Caterpillar,McDonald’s,Twitter,Bristol-Myers Squibb,Comcast,Merck,Northrop Grumman, Airbus,Kraft Heinz,Intercontinental Exchange,Mastercard,Gilead Sciences,U.S. Steel, Cirrus Logic,Texas Roadhouse, Cabot Oil, PG&E,Royal Dutch Shell,Church & Dwight, Carlyle Group,Southern Co.8:30 a.m. Initial jobless claims8:30 a.m. Real GDP Q110:00 a.m. Pending home salesFridayEarnings:ExxonMobil,Chevron,Colgate-Palmolive,AstraZeneca,Clorox,Barclays, AbbVie, BNP Paribas,Weyerhaeuser,Illinois Tool Works, CBOE Global Markets, Lazard,Newell Brands,Aon,LyondellBasell,Pitney Bowes,Phillips 66,Charter Communications8:30 a.m. Personal income and spending8:30 a.m. Employment cost index Q19:45 a.m. Chicago PMI10:00 a.m. Consumer sentimentSaturdayEarnings:Berkshire Hathaway","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":298,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":127122525,"gmtCreate":1624840578367,"gmtModify":1703845801030,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/127122525","repostId":"2146007118","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2146007118","pubTimestamp":1624826996,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2146007118?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-28 04:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"June jobs report, Consumer confidence: What to know this week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2146007118","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"This week's packed slate of economic data reports will include an update on the labor market and new data on consumer confidence, offering fresh looks at the pace and perception of the COVID-19 recovery for many Americans.On Friday, the Labor Department will release its June jobs report.

These supply-and-demand mismatches in the labor market – with shortages noted by firms from FedEx (FDX) to Yum Brands (YUM) — have also begun to push wages higher and created additional costs for businesses. In Friday's report, average hourly earnings are expected to jump 3.6% year-on-year for June, accelerating from May's 2% increase.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b881fe96eccc72cff61bf35b0dfa72fa\" tg-width=\"5210\" tg-height=\"3404\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 03: A pedestrian walks by a Now Hiring sign outside of a Lamps Plus store on June 03, 2021 in San Francisco, California.

The print is expected to show an acceleration in rehiring and a step lower in the unemployment rate, helping alleviate some of the labor shortages reported across the economy as of late.\nNon-farm payrolls likely grew by 700,000 in June, according to Bloomberg consensus data. This would accelerate from the 559,000 added back in May and mark the biggest rise since March. And the unemployment rate is expected to move down to 5.6% from 5.8% in May, bringing the jobless rate closer to its pre-pandemic, 50-year low of 3.5%.\n\"Payrolls probably surged again in June, with the pace up from the +559,000 in May,\" TD Securities strategists wrote in a note Friday. \"Some acceleration in the private sector is suggested by the Homebase data, while government payrolls probably benefited from fewer than usual end-of-school-year layoffs.\"\nEven with a sizable monthly payroll gain, the economy would still be well off its pre-pandemic levels of employment. Heading into June, the U.S. economy was still down by more than 7 million payrolls compared to February 2020, with the deficit most pronounced in high-contact services industries like restaurants and hotels.\nBut both services and manufacturing companies have cited shortages of qualified workers to fill open positions, which hit a record high of over 9 million as of latest data. These supply-and-demand mismatches in the labor market – with shortages noted by firms from FedEx (FDX) to Yum Brands (YUM) — have also begun to push wages higher and created additional costs for businesses. In Friday's report, average hourly earnings are expected to jump 3.6% year-on-year for June, accelerating from May's 2% increase.\nSAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 03: A pedestrian walks by a Now Hiring sign outside of a Lamps Plus store on June 03, 2021 in San Francisco, California.

Beijing was cracking down on tech businesses, and India had&nbsp;blacklisted&nbsp;some of its social-media apps.</p>\n<p>For all the obstacles, ByteDance kept growing. Now its founder, 38-year-old&nbsp;Zhang Yiming, is among the world’s richest people -- a distinction that lately has carried&nbsp;increased risks&nbsp;in China.</p>\n<p>Shares of the company trade in the private market at a valuation of more than&nbsp;$250 billion, people familiar with the dealings have said. At that level, Zhang, who owns about a quarter of ByteDance, could be worth more than $60 billion, placing him alongside&nbsp;Tencent Holdings Ltd.’s Pony Ma, bottled-water king Zhong Shanshan and members of the Walton and Koch families in the U.S., according to the&nbsp;Bloomberg Billionaires Index.</p>\n<p>ByteDance, famous for its short-video apps and news aggregator Toutiao,more than doubled&nbsp;revenue last year after expanding beyond its core advertising business into areas such as e-commerce and online gaming. It’s now weighing options for the initial public offering of some businesses.</p>\n<p>“Zhang is someone who’s known for thinking long-term and not easily dissuaded by short-term setbacks,” said&nbsp;Ma Rui, partner at venture-capital firm Synaptic Ventures. “He is set on building an enduring, global business.”</p>\n<p><b>Surging Valuation</b></p>\n<p>During its last fundraising round, ByteDance reached a $180 billion valuation, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. That’s up from $20 billion about three years ago, according to CB Insights. But in the private market, some investors recently were asking for the equivalent of a $350 billion valuation to part with their shares, the people have said. Its value for private equity investors is approaching $400 billion, according to a&nbsp;report&nbsp;in the South China Morning Post. That would mean an even bigger fortune for Zhang.</p>\n<p>ByteDance representatives didn’t respond to requests for comment.</p>\n<p>It’s a tough time to be wealthy in China as the government seeks to rein in the country’s most powerful corporations and their billionaire founders. Just ask&nbsp;Jack Ma. After opening an antitrust probe, regulators fined Alibaba a record&nbsp;$2.8 billion&nbsp;and the central bank ordered an&nbsp;overhaul&nbsp;of his Ant Group Co. fintech empire so it’d be supervised more like a bank.</p>\n<p>While ByteDance hasn’t been singled out as a target, its dominance in social media and war chest for deal-making are sensitive areas the government is looking into.</p>\n<p>“There are no more silly games in the U.S. with Trump and potential bans or forced asset sales,” said Kirk Boodry, founder of investment research firm Redex Holdings. “But the pressure on tech-share prices and China in particular might make $250 billion a tough sell,” he added, referring to ByteDance’s value in private transactions.</p>\n<p>Born in the southern Chinese city of Longyan, Zhang, the only son of civil servants, studied programming at Tianjin’s Nankai University, where he built a following on the school’s online forum by fixing classmates’ computers. He joined Microsoft Corp. for a brief stint after graduating, later calling the job so boring he often “worked half of the day and read books in the other half,” according to an interview with Chinese media. He went on to develop several ventures, including a real estate search portal.</p>\n<p>His breakthrough came in 2012, when working in a four-bedroom apartment in Beijing he created ByteDance’s first hit -- a joke-sharing app that was later shut down by Beijing’s censors. It then turned to news aggregation before winning over more than 1 billion global users with its short-video platforms TikTok and Chinese twin app, Douyin. In the process, it attracted big-name investors such as SoftBank Group Corp., Sequoia Capital and proprietary-trading firm Susquehanna International Group, making it a rarity among Chinese internet startups that usually get absorbed into the wider ecosystems of Tencent and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.</p>\n<p><b>Novel Concept</b></p>\n<p>One of Zhang’s earliest supporters, Susquehanna has become ByteDance’s largest outside backer with a 15% stake, according to a Wall Street Journal story in October. The initial bet was made at the start of 2012, when ByteDance’s news app Toutiao was just a concept that Zhang had drawn up on napkins, according to a 2016&nbsp;blog post&nbsp;by Joan Wang, who led that investment for Susquehanna’s Chinese venture-capital unit.</p>\n<p>With TikTok facing scrutiny in the U.S. and India, Zhang has put more effort into ByteDance’s nascent and fast-growing Chinese businesses, which range from gaming to education to e-commerce. That helped it increase sales to about $35 billion last year and operating profit to $7 billion, a person familiar with the results said.</p>\n<p>Investors are eyeing the&nbsp;IPO&nbsp;of some of ByteDance’s businesses after Chinese competitor Kuaishou Technology raised $5.4 billion in February in the&nbsp;biggest&nbsp;internet listing since Uber Technologies Inc.

Beijing was cracking down on tech businesses, and India had blacklisted some of its social-media apps.\nFor all the obstacles, ByteDance kept growing. Now its founder, 38-year-old Zhang Yiming, is among the world’s richest people -- a distinction that lately has carried increased risks in China.\nShares of the company trade in the private market at a valuation of more than $250 billion, people familiar with the dealings have said. At that level, Zhang, who owns about a quarter of ByteDance, could be worth more than $60 billion, placing him alongside Tencent Holdings Ltd.’s Pony Ma, bottled-water king Zhong Shanshan and members of the Walton and Koch families in the U.S., according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.\nByteDance, famous for its short-video apps and news aggregator Toutiao,more than doubled revenue last year after expanding beyond its core advertising business into areas such as e-commerce and online gaming. It’s now weighing options for the initial public offering of some businesses.\n“Zhang is someone who’s known for thinking long-term and not easily dissuaded by short-term setbacks,” said Ma Rui, partner at venture-capital firm Synaptic Ventures. “He is set on building an enduring, global business.”\nSurging Valuation\nDuring its last fundraising round, ByteDance reached a $180 billion valuation, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. That’s up from $20 billion about three years ago, according to CB Insights. But in the private market, some investors recently were asking for the equivalent of a $350 billion valuation to part with their shares, the people have said. Its value for private equity investors is approaching $400 billion, according to a report in the South China Morning Post. That would mean an even bigger fortune for Zhang.\nByteDance representatives didn’t respond to requests for comment.\nIt’s a tough time to be wealthy in China as the government seeks to rein in the country’s most powerful corporations and their billionaire founders. Just ask Jack Ma. After opening an antitrust probe, regulators fined Alibaba a record $2.8 billion and the central bank ordered an overhaul of his Ant Group Co. fintech empire so it’d be supervised more like a bank.\nWhile ByteDance hasn’t been singled out as a target, its dominance in social media and war chest for deal-making are sensitive areas the government is looking into.\n“There are no more silly games in the U.S. with Trump and potential bans or forced asset sales,” said Kirk Boodry, founder of investment research firm Redex Holdings. “But the pressure on tech-share prices and China in particular might make $250 billion a tough sell,” he added, referring to ByteDance’s value in private transactions.\nBorn in the southern Chinese city of Longyan, Zhang, the only son of civil servants, studied programming at Tianjin’s Nankai University, where he built a following on the school’s online forum by fixing classmates’ computers. He joined Microsoft Corp. for a brief stint after graduating, later calling the job so boring he often “worked half of the day and read books in the other half,” according to an interview with Chinese media. He went on to develop several ventures, including a real estate search portal.\nHis breakthrough came in 2012, when working in a four-bedroom apartment in Beijing he created ByteDance’s first hit -- a joke-sharing app that was later shut down by Beijing’s censors. It then turned to news aggregation before winning over more than 1 billion global users with its short-video platforms TikTok and Chinese twin app, Douyin. In the process, it attracted big-name investors such as SoftBank Group Corp., Sequoia Capital and proprietary-trading firm Susquehanna International Group, making it a rarity among Chinese internet startups that usually get absorbed into the wider ecosystems of Tencent and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.\nNovel Concept\nOne of Zhang’s earliest supporters, Susquehanna has become ByteDance’s largest outside backer with a 15% stake, according to a Wall Street Journal story in October. The initial bet was made at the start of 2012, when ByteDance’s news app Toutiao was just a concept that Zhang had drawn up on napkins, according to a 2016 blog post by Joan Wang, who led that investment for Susquehanna’s Chinese venture-capital unit.\nWith TikTok facing scrutiny in the U.S. and India, Zhang has put more effort into ByteDance’s nascent and fast-growing Chinese businesses, which range from gaming to education to e-commerce. That helped it increase sales to about $35 billion last year and operating profit to $7 billion, a person familiar with the results said.\nInvestors are eyeing the IPO of some of ByteDance’s businesses after Chinese competitor Kuaishou Technology raised $5.4 billion in February in the biggest internet listing since Uber Technologies Inc. The firm’s market value is now nearing $140 billion. Last month, ByteDance hired former Xiaomi Corp. executive Chew Shou Zi as its chief financial officer, filling a long vacant position that will be crucial for its eventual market offering.\nFor Zhang, it’s not all about immediate payoffs. The affable founder is known for his business philosophy of “delaying satisfactions” as he puts the focus on long-term growth -- a message he stressed again during his spiel to employees at the company’s ninth anniversary celebration last month.\n“Keep an ordinary mind, that’s something that sounds easy but important to do,” he said. “Put in the plainest words, when hungry, eat, when tired, sleep.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":385,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344015158,"gmtCreate":1618359841674,"gmtModify":1704709590241,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/344015158","repostId":"1176504888","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1176504888","pubTimestamp":1618357624,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1176504888?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-14 07:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 closes at record, Nasdaq adds 1% as stocks shake off J&J vaccine halt, higher inflation","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1176504888","media":"CNBC","summary":"U.S. stocks traded mostly higher on Tuesday after a March inflation report turned out not as bad as ","content":"<div>\n<p>U.S. stocks traded mostly higher on Tuesday after a March inflation report turned out not as bad as some traders feared, but the impact of a halt to the rollout of Johnson & Johnson vaccine kept ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/12/stock-market-futures-open-to-close-news.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The Nasdaq Composite, the relative outperformer, gained just over 1% to 13,996.1 as Apple and PayPal each added more than 2%. Semiconductor maker Nvidia climbed 3%, Tesla rose 8.6%.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 68.13 points, 0.2%, to close at 33,677.27 after dropping more than 150 points earlier in the session.\nReopening trades came under pressure Tuesday morning after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said it’s recommending a pause in the Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine after reported cases of blood clotting.\nThere have been six reported cases of a rare and severe type of blood clot after receiving the J&J vaccine, the FDA said. The administration is calling for a pause in the vaccine until Centers for Disease Control and Prevention concludes its investigation into these cases.\n“Until that process is complete, we are recommending this pause,” the FDA said. “This is important to ensure that the health care provider community is aware of the potential for these adverse events and can plan due to the unique treatment required with this type of blood clot.”\nActing FDA Commissioner Janet Woodcock said later Tuesday that she expects the pause to last “a matter of days.” More than 6.8 million doses of the single-dose vaccine have been administered in the U.S. J&J shares lost 1.3%.\nJeff Zients, the White House Covid-19 response coordinator, replied that the FDA’s announcement should not have a material impact on the national effort to vaccinate.\n“Over the last few weeks, we have made available more than 25 million doses of Pfizer and Moderna each week, and in fact this week we will make available 28 million doses of these vaccines,” he added. “This is more than enough supply to continue the current pace of vaccinations of 3 million shots per day, and meet the President’s goal of 200 million shots by his 100th day in office.”\nStill, shares of companies that would be hurt the most if the vaccine rollout slows underperformed Tuesday.\nAlaska Air and American Airlines both lost 1.5%; car-rental company Avis Budget shed nearly 1%. Shares of Moderna, which makes another coronavirus vaccine, jumped 7.4% following the J&J news, which was reported first by The New York Times.\n“I don’t think there’s going to be a huge reaction in the market beyond the knee-jerk reaction we’re getting here right now,” said Mike Wilson, chief U.S. equity strategist for Morgan Stanley, on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.” “We’re optimistic, very optimistic that we’re going to be reopened fully in the second half of this year.”\nThe consumer price index, one of Wall Street’s most-popular inflation gauges, rose 0.6% in March and increased 2.6% from the same period a year ago. Economists polled by Dow Jones were projecting the headline index to rise by 0.5% month over month and 2.5% year over year.\nCore CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy costs, increased 0.3% monthly and 1.6% year over year.\nGovernment officials, including Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Sunday and Biden administration economists on Monday, stressed that while they expect a jump in inflation in the months ahead, the change could prove temporary due to comparisons with last year’s pandemic lockdowns and extra consumer spending from stimulus checks and pent-up demand.\nPrivate sector strategists and economists also said that the reading may not be a true gauge of rising prices. Fed officials said they are willing to let inflation run hot for a period of time without changing their accommodative policy stance, including asset purchases and a benchmark interest near zero.\n“US equities are drifting slightly higher Tuesday as investors digest a higher-than-expected inflation in the CPI report and position ahead of 1Q21 earnings, which start on Wednesday,” Chris Hussey, a managing director at Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note.\n“Underneath the surface, the market is assuming a defensive posture today led by mega-cap Tech and the bond proxies -- Utilities and Real Estate,” he added.\nThe market has been calm over the past week as Wall Street settled into a lull ahead of the first-quarter earnings season. Corporate news is set to pick up later in the week, with JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and Delta Air Lines among the companies set to report quarterly results.\nThe bond market was also subdued on Tuesday, with the 10-year Treasury yield edging lower to just above 1.62%. Yields move inversely to prices.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":225,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":348838255,"gmtCreate":1617903671177,"gmtModify":1704704662554,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/348838255","repostId":"1112389819","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1112389819","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":1617854410,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1112389819?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-08 12:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood Adds These Stocks To The Newly-Created Space Exploration ETF And Others","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1112389819","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Cathie Wood’s Ark Investment Management sends out an email every night listing the stocks that were ","content":"<p>Cathie Wood’s Ark Investment Management sends out an email every night listing the stocks that were bought or sold by the firm's ETFs that day.

Can it continue?","content":"<p>This tech giant has helped investors beat the market in recent years. Can it continue?</p>\n<p><b>Microsoft</b> (NASDAQ:MSFT) is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the largest enterprises in the world with a market cap of $1.8 trillion. Its operations span from office productivity and collaboration tools to cloud computing and gaming services.</p>\n<p>Over the past three years, Microsoft stock has outperformed the broad market, jumping over 160% compared to the 52% gain of the<b>S&amp;P 500</b>. But past success is no guarantee of future performance, so is Microsoft still a buy?</p>\n<p>Productivity software</p>\n<p>Microsoft is the clear market leader&nbsp;in office productivity software. Applications like Word, PowerPoint, and Excel are industry standards, and collaboration tools like Teams and SharePoint make it possible to work together from anywhere.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31a27392be61263195d52b55bf08c9bb\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Microsoft.</p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, the pandemic sparked strong demand for many of these products. For instance, Microsoft Whiteboard in Teams -- a feature that allows remote collaboration -- has seen a 12-fold increase&nbsp;in monthly active users over the past year. And while Teams is a free product, it adds substantial value to Microsoft 365, the company's software-as-a-service offering.</p>\n<p>In the first half of fiscal 2021 (the six months ended Dec. 31, 2020), sales in Microsoft's productivity segment jumped 12%, driven by 21% growth&nbsp;in Office 365 commercial revenue. Also noteworthy, Dynamics 365 sales -- a hybrid of enterprise resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship management (CRM) software&nbsp;-- jumped 38%&nbsp;during the same period.</p>\n<p><b>Cloud computing and gaming</b></p>\n<p>Microsoft Azure is the second most popular public cloud in the world, and it's gaining ground on&nbsp;<b>Amazon</b> Web Services (AWS). At the end of 2020, Azure had achieved 20% market share, up from 15%&nbsp;at the end of 2018. Meanwhile, AWS has dropped from 33% to 32% over that period.</p>\n<p>To avoid vendor lock-in, more cloud computing customers are opting for hybrid or multi-cloud solutions&nbsp;-- meaning cloud resources are split between on-premise data centers and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> or more public clouds. Microsoft has leaned into this trend&nbsp;and established itself as a leader.</p>\n<p>Azure Arc enables clients to extend Azure management to any environment. Put another way, users can manage all cloud resources from one location, even if those resources aren't stored in Microsoft's cloud. That greatly reduces complexity, and it makes a strong case for why clients should choose Azure as part of their cloud strategy.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/859ca01b7bf928d21645695411d86ba8\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"550\"><span>Image source: Microsoft.</span></p>\n<p>In gaming, Microsoft launched the Xbox series X and S last November -- the series X was designed for performance while the series S comes at a more affordable price. In a recent earnings call, CEO Satya Nadella called it \"the most successful\" launch in the company's history \"with the most devices ever sold in a launch month.\" That helped drive gaming revenue of $2.3 billion in the first six months of fiscal 2021, up 38%&nbsp;from the prior year.</p>\n<p><b>The big picture</b></p>\n<p>Microsoft has delivered an impressive financial performance in recent years, driven primarily by strength in its productivity and cloud computing businesses.</p>\n<p>Both revenue and free cash flow have logged double-digit compound annual growth rates, and investors should note the company's gross margin has trended upward as well, rising from 65% in 2017 to 68% in the trailing 12-month period. That improving profitability has actually helped free cash flow grow more quickly than revenue.</p>\n<p>Also noteworthy, Microsoft currently has $132 billion in cash, equivalents, and short-term investments on its balance sheet. That's more than double its $60 billion of debt, putting the company in a very healthy financial position.</p>\n<p>In terms of valuation, Microsoft trades at 12 times sales and 36 times earnings. Both of those figures are at the high end of their historical ranges. In other words, the stock looks more pricey today than it has for most of the last decade.</p>\n<p><b>The verdict</b></p>\n<p>Investors should keep in mind that while Microsoft's vast operations come with an enormous market opportunity, the company faces competition from virtually every angle.

Can it continue?\nMicrosoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is one of the largest enterprises in the world with a market cap of $1.8 trillion. Its operations span from office productivity and collaboration tools to cloud computing and gaming services.\nOver the past three years, Microsoft stock has outperformed the broad market, jumping over 160% compared to the 52% gain of theS&P 500. But past success is no guarantee of future performance, so is Microsoft still a buy?\nProductivity software\nMicrosoft is the clear market leader in office productivity software. Applications like Word, PowerPoint, and Excel are industry standards, and collaboration tools like Teams and SharePoint make it possible to work together from anywhere.\n\nImage source: Microsoft.\nNot surprisingly, the pandemic sparked strong demand for many of these products. For instance, Microsoft Whiteboard in Teams -- a feature that allows remote collaboration -- has seen a 12-fold increase in monthly active users over the past year. And while Teams is a free product, it adds substantial value to Microsoft 365, the company's software-as-a-service offering.\nIn the first half of fiscal 2021 (the six months ended Dec. 31, 2020), sales in Microsoft's productivity segment jumped 12%, driven by 21% growth in Office 365 commercial revenue. Also noteworthy, Dynamics 365 sales -- a hybrid of enterprise resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship management (CRM) software -- jumped 38% during the same period.\nCloud computing and gaming\nMicrosoft Azure is the second most popular public cloud in the world, and it's gaining ground on Amazon Web Services (AWS). At the end of 2020, Azure had achieved 20% market share, up from 15% at the end of 2018. Meanwhile, AWS has dropped from 33% to 32% over that period.\nTo avoid vendor lock-in, more cloud computing customers are opting for hybrid or multi-cloud solutions -- meaning cloud resources are split between on-premise data centers and one or more public clouds. Microsoft has leaned into this trend and established itself as a leader.\nAzure Arc enables clients to extend Azure management to any environment. Put another way, users can manage all cloud resources from one location, even if those resources aren't stored in Microsoft's cloud. That greatly reduces complexity, and it makes a strong case for why clients should choose Azure as part of their cloud strategy.\nImage source: Microsoft.\nIn gaming, Microsoft launched the Xbox series X and S last November -- the series X was designed for performance while the series S comes at a more affordable price. In a recent earnings call, CEO Satya Nadella called it \"the most successful\" launch in the company's history \"with the most devices ever sold in a launch month.\" That helped drive gaming revenue of $2.3 billion in the first six months of fiscal 2021, up 38% from the prior year.\nThe big picture\nMicrosoft has delivered an impressive financial performance in recent years, driven primarily by strength in its productivity and cloud computing businesses.\nBoth revenue and free cash flow have logged double-digit compound annual growth rates, and investors should note the company's gross margin has trended upward as well, rising from 65% in 2017 to 68% in the trailing 12-month period. That improving profitability has actually helped free cash flow grow more quickly than revenue.\nAlso noteworthy, Microsoft currently has $132 billion in cash, equivalents, and short-term investments on its balance sheet. That's more than double its $60 billion of debt, putting the company in a very healthy financial position.\nIn terms of valuation, Microsoft trades at 12 times sales and 36 times earnings. Both of those figures are at the high end of their historical ranges. In other words, the stock looks more pricey today than it has for most of the last decade.\nThe verdict\nInvestors should keep in mind that while Microsoft's vast operations come with an enormous market opportunity, the company faces competition from virtually every angle. Most notably, in cloud computing, the tech giant squares off with AWS andAlphabet's Google Cloud. And in the market for collaboration and CRM software, Microsoft competes withsalesforce.com, a rivalry that could become more intense if Salesforce's acquisition ofSlack wins approval.\nHowever, Microsoft is a very profitable business with deep pockets and a strong competitive position in several industries. From that perspective, this stock looks like a good addition to any portfolio, even at today's elevated valuation.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":184,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":373869361,"gmtCreate":1618839266553,"gmtModify":1704715641956,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool&nbsp;","listText":"Cool&nbsp;","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/373869361","repostId":"1176775875","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1176775875","pubTimestamp":1618838772,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1176775875?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-19 21:26","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Expedia switches up its strategy as travel starts to come back","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1176775875","media":"CNBC","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nExpedia is switching up its strategy as consumers start to plan trips again, and plans a","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nExpedia is switching up its strategy as consumers start to plan trips again, and plans a major ad campaign to spread the word.\nThe new brand positioning includes the tagline of “It matters...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/19/expedia-switches-up-its-strategy-as-travel-starts-to-come-back.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

It also plans a global ad campaign to support the repositioning starting this week.\nThe new brand positioning includes the tagline “It matters who you travel with,” which illustrates Expedia’s desire to be more of a travel companion that can support travelers get more out of their trips. The company said it will make its largest marketing spend in five years, but wouldn’t specify how much it will spend.\nThe change comes after the pandemic caused one of the toughest years ever for the travel industry. According to figures from the U.S. Travel Association, travel spend dropped 42%, or $500 billion, from 2019 to 2020. Spend totaled $679 billion in 2020. International travel plummeted 76%, while business travel fell 70%, it said. But as more consumers are vaccinated in the U.S. and restrictions ease, travel looks poised to make a major comeback: Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky told CNBC last week that it will need millions of new hosts to meet demand as travel picks up again.\nExpedia says it conducted research into what customers want in a travel company. Some of the updates include new packages that bundle flights with accommodations and activities with upfront total pricing, or an updated virtual agent that will help travelers, for instance, with health and hygiene information about hotels.\n“Expedia was founded in 1996. And that was an amazing moment, because what it did was, it turned every traveler, every consumer, into their own travel agent, and it was incredibly empowering,” said Shiv Singh, senior vice president and general manager of Expedia Brand.\n“It was a year of reckoning for the travel industry, because travel just literally fell off a cliff,” Singh said of 2020. “But ... it served as a moment for us to dig deep and understand and study and learn more about our consumers in a way we never had to need to in the past.”\nSingh said the company recognizes travel is becoming more of a conscious choice for consumers, one that is appreciated rather than taken for granted. The company also found in its study that the stay-at-home period has made consumers want to travel more. They’re yearning to get out of the house as long as they feel safe and comfortable doing so. And he said that customers are more sensitive to the kinds of experiences they have, both as it pertains to health and safety and in having memorable experiences.\nSingh said the company recognizes not everyone is not yet ready or desiring to travel.\n“We know thanks to Covid, expectations around travel and what it means to be the ultimate travel companion are different, and we want to serve that whether you’re ready and it’s safe to travel tomorrow morning, or whether that six months from now from now,” he said. “And whether that’s for a vacation to a beach, or a business trip, whatever it may be.”\nThe company is marking the repositioning with a global ad campaign, including a U.S. television spot starring Rashida Jones. The company worked with Publicis Groupe’s Saatchi & Saatchi on the campaign creative.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":350,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":347691962,"gmtCreate":1618491011556,"gmtModify":1704711634709,"author":{"id":"3560312021535854","authorId":"3560312021535854","name":"Leathermouth","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8e579f4c68688449e7cd11e78ac01226","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3560312021535854","authorIdStr":"3560312021535854"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool&nbsp;","listText":"Cool&nbsp;","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/347691962","repostId":"1125635474","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1125635474","pubTimestamp":1618295945,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1125635474?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-13 14:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"AppLovin: Capitalizing On The Surging Growth Of Mobile Game Apps","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1125635474","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"SummaryAppLovin announced its IPO price range of $75 to $85 per share.

The company's sales growth has been surging in recent years as the company has benefited from both organic growth and has been aggressive in making numerous acquisitions in the past three years.</p><p>Most developers lack access to the marketing, monetization, and data analytics tools required to stand out among the more than 4.8 million mobile apps available on the Apple App Store(NASDAQ:AAPL)and Google Play Store(NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL). The company's products and services help many app developers to scale up their business and create a successful app that can be sustained long term. This is where the company's capabilities in app development, marketing, and analytics really stand out.</p><p>There are more than 1.3 million mobile gaming apps on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.Mobile gamingaccounts for 39% of worldwide app downloads and for 72% of all app store consumer spend by value, according to Sensor Tower.</p><p>Although the company's operating margins declined in the past two years mainly due to higher operating expenses, we believe that the company's profit margins will turn around this year due to a combination of higher economies of scale and lower operating expenses as a percentage of revenues.</p><p><b>Comparable Companies Valuation Analysis</b></p><p>In the comparable companies valuation analysis, we used the following companies as comps to AppLovin:</p><ul><li>Unity Software (U)</li><li>Roblox Corp. (RBLX)</li><li>Activision Blizzard (ATVI)</li><li>Zynga (ZNGA)</li></ul><p>Our base case valuation of AppLovin is an EV of $35.1 billion, implied market cap of $35.7 billion, and implied target price per share of $99.8. This represents 17% upside from the high end of the IPO price range of $85. We have a POSITIVE view of the AppLovin IPO.</p><p>Our base case valuation of AppLovin is based on a 16x EV/S multiple (using 2021 sales estimate), which represents a 10% higher than the average EV/S multiple of the comps. It is also below the EV/S multiple of Unity Software and Roblox which trade at EV/S multiple of 26.8x and 19.2x, respectively.</p><p>The comps' average sales growth in 2020 and 2021 are similar to the sales growth rates of AppLovin in this period. Among the comps, Roblox has the highest sales growth and Activision has the lowest sales growth in 2020 and 2021. Overall, we have assumed higher sales growth for AppLovin versus its peers in 2021 and 2022 and this is one of main reasons why we have applied a 10% higher valuation multiple than the comps.</p><p>However, Roblox is trading at 19.2x EV/S in 2021 and we have applied a 16x EV/S multiple for AppLovin (17% lower valuation multiple than Roblox). We believe the market will attach a slightly higher valuation multiple for Roblox than AppLovin, mainly due to the former company's higher sales growth and operating margins in 2021, and its brand is more recognized worldwide.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b47032411f633c63c676152889baa874\" tg-width=\"553\" tg-height=\"350\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ea8b356b98201f398b48bd4d57e507a\" tg-width=\"552\" tg-height=\"455\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8a2dfe8877740e842bb1e143c157e39c\" tg-width=\"551\" tg-height=\"370\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0aec05aa4790c780a95e2527c62896e9\" tg-width=\"554\" tg-height=\"548\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8ee98f1dd0f1c0becb865f331a283068\" tg-width=\"550\" tg-height=\"340\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/96321e40b2bb290d968a20e0a3832de8\" tg-width=\"554\" tg-height=\"362\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/327d495d893132d12a74cc91d93df055\" tg-width=\"553\" tg-height=\"367\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><b>Income Statement Forecast</b></p><p>AppLovin generated sales of $1,451.1 million and an operating loss of $62.1 million in 2020.

This acquisition is expected to close in 1H 2021.</p><p>In the IPO prospectus, the company mentioned that it plans to use $75 million of its Class A common shares for charitable purposes. If the company raises $1 billion in the IPO, this would represent nearly 7.5% of total amount. This is a bit unusual to have this large number of shares allocated for charitable purposes.

The company is selling 25 million shares.At the high end of the IPO price range, the company is aiming to raise $2.1 billion, and it would be valued at $30.4 billion.Our base case valuation of AppLovin is an EV of $35.1 billion, implied market cap of $35.7 billion, and target price per share of $99.8.The company has been a key beneficiary of the surging growth of popular game apps.Despite strong sales growth, its operating margins worsened in 2020 due to higher operating expenses.Investment ThesisAppLovinAppLovin Corporation  is one of the key beneficiaries of the exploding demand for mobile apps, especially for mobile games. The company's sales growth has been surging in recent years as the company has benefited from both organic growth and has been aggressive in making numerous acquisitions in the past three years.Most developers lack access to the marketing, monetization, and data analytics tools required to stand out among the more than 4.8 million mobile apps available on the Apple App Store(NASDAQ:AAPL)and Google Play Store(NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL). The company's products and services help many app developers to scale up their business and create a successful app that can be sustained long term. This is where the company's capabilities in app development, marketing, and analytics really stand out.There are more than 1.3 million mobile gaming apps on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.Mobile gamingaccounts for 39% of worldwide app downloads and for 72% of all app store consumer spend by value, according to Sensor Tower.Although the company's operating margins declined in the past two years mainly due to higher operating expenses, we believe that the company's profit margins will turn around this year due to a combination of higher economies of scale and lower operating expenses as a percentage of revenues.Comparable Companies Valuation AnalysisIn the comparable companies valuation analysis, we used the following companies as comps to AppLovin:Unity Software (U)Roblox Corp. (RBLX)Activision Blizzard (ATVI)Zynga (ZNGA)Our base case valuation of AppLovin is an EV of $35.1 billion, implied market cap of $35.7 billion, and implied target price per share of $99.8. This represents 17% upside from the high end of the IPO price range of $85. We have a POSITIVE view of the AppLovin IPO.Our base case valuation of AppLovin is based on a 16x EV/S multiple (using 2021 sales estimate), which represents a 10% higher than the average EV/S multiple of the comps. It is also below the EV/S multiple of Unity Software and Roblox which trade at EV/S multiple of 26.8x and 19.2x, respectively.The comps' average sales growth in 2020 and 2021 are similar to the sales growth rates of AppLovin in this period. Among the comps, Roblox has the highest sales growth and Activision has the lowest sales growth in 2020 and 2021. Overall, we have assumed higher sales growth for AppLovin versus its peers in 2021 and 2022 and this is one of main reasons why we have applied a 10% higher valuation multiple than the comps.However, Roblox is trading at 19.2x EV/S in 2021 and we have applied a 16x EV/S multiple for AppLovin (17% lower valuation multiple than Roblox). We believe the market will attach a slightly higher valuation multiple for Roblox than AppLovin, mainly due to the former company's higher sales growth and operating margins in 2021, and its brand is more recognized worldwide.Income Statement ForecastAppLovin generated sales of $1,451.1 million and an operating loss of $62.1 million in 2020. The company's sales have nearly tripled from 2018 to 2020. The company's operating margins declined from 50.1% in 2018 to 19.5% in 2019 and -4.3% in 2020. The major reasons for the lower operating margins are due to higher cost of sales, sales & marketing, R&D, and other operating expenses as a percentage of sales.We estimate AppLovin to generate sales of $2.2 billion (up 51% YoY) and an operating profit of $65.2 million in 2021. From 2020 to 2025, we have assumed the company's sales to grow at a CAGR of 28.6%. We have also assumed the company's operating margin to turn positive to 3% in 2021 from -4.3% in 2020. We estimate its operating margins to improve further to 6.8% in 2022, 10.6% in 2023, and 17.8% in 2025. We estimate AppLovin to have sales of $5.1 billion and an operating profit of $0.9 billion in 2025.Company BackgroundThecompanyoriginally started its business helping customers to improve the smartphone customer experiences for all the users.
