The S&P 500 dipped 0.75% to 4,327.16 and the Nasdaq Composite shed 0.8% to 14,427.24.\nThe three averages closed the week lower to each snap 3-week win streaks. The Dow ended the week down 0.52%, while the S&P 500 dipped 0.97% and the Nasdaq Composite fell 1.87% during the same period.\n\nA U.S.consumer sentimentindex from the University of Michigan came in at 80.8 for the first half of July, down from 85.5 last month and worse than estimates from economists, who projected an increase. The report released Friday showed inflation expectations rising, with consumers believing prices will increase 4.8% in the next year, the highest level since August 2008.\nThe Dow gave up its gains early Friday shortly after the University of Michigan report came out 30 minutes into the session. Losses increased as the day went on with major averages closing at the lows of the session.\nThe consumer sentiment weakness “is at face value hard to square with the acceleration in employment growth and the continued resilience of the stock market,” said Andrew Hunter, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics, but the report “suggested that concerns over surging inflation are now outweighing those positive trends.”\nInflation fears\nThe market was held back all week by inflation fears although the S&P 500 and Dow did touch new all-time highs briefly. On Tuesday, theconsumer price indexshowed a 5.4% increase in June from a year ago, the fastest pace in nearly 13 years.\nStocks got off to a good start Friday with the Dow rising more than 100 points to above 35,000 shortly after the open.Data released before the bell showed retail and food service salesrose 0.6% in June, while economists surveyed by Dow Jones had expected a 0.4% decline. If that level held, it would have been the Dow’s first close ever above 35,000.\nDespite the week’s losses, the Dow is still up 13% for the year and sits just 1.15% from an all-time high. The S&P 500 is up 15% on the year and is 1.51% below its record level.\n“The market looks broadly fairly valued to me, with most stocks priced to provide a market rate of return plus or minus a few percent,” Bill Miller, chairman and chief investment officer of Miller Value Partners,said in an investor letter.\n“There are pockets of what look like appreciable over-valuation and pockets of significant undervaluation in the US market, in my opinion. We can find plenty of names to fill our portfolios and so remain fully invested,” the value investor added.\nEnergy correction\nEnergy stocks, the hottest part of the market in 2021, fell into correction territory on Friday as oil prices pulled back from their highs.\nThe Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund fell more than 2% on Friday, the worst of any group, dropping 14% from its high. Still, the sector is up about 28% in 2021, making it the top performer of any of the 11 main industry groups.\nWeaker performance from technology stocks also weighed on the market Friday. Shares of Apple closed 1.4% lower afternotching a record closejust two days prior. Netflix shares fell ahead of the streaming giant’s second-quarter earnings report next week.\nInvestors digested strong earnings results from the first major week of second-quarter reports. Though some of the nation’s largest companies posted healthy earnings and revenues amid the economic recovery, the reaction in the stock market has so far been muted.\nThe Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund ended the week 1.5% lower despite big profit growth numbers posted by the likes of JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America.\n“Good earnings might have become an excuse for some investors to take profit. And with earnings expectations so high in general, it takes a really big beat for a company to impress,” JJ Kinahan, TD Ameritrade chief market strategist, said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":475,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":179632983,"gmtCreate":1626514760142,"gmtModify":1703761359849,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like and comment","listText":"Pls like and comment","text":"Pls like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/179632983","repostId":"1159574501","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":501,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":124629810,"gmtCreate":1624763013130,"gmtModify":1703844673898,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great!","listText":"Great!","text":"Great!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/124629810","repostId":"1199111142","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1199111142","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1622633566,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1199111142?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-02 19:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"China Renaissance's Target Price For UP Fintech Holding Limited  Are Surging Higher","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1199111142","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"(June 2) UP Fintech Holding Limited(NASDAQ:TIGR) shareholders will have a reason to smile today, wit","content":"<p>(June&nbsp;2)&nbsp;<b>UP Fintech Holding Limited</b>(NASDAQ:TIGR) shareholders will have a reason to smile today, with China Renaissance making substantial upgrades to this year's forecasts.

We believe&nbsp;getting a HK brokerage license will help Tiger: 1) generate additional user growth in Hong&nbsp;Kong’s retail market (we have not factored in HK client adds in our model yet); 2) improve&nbsp;monetization in HK retail IPO distribution, with direct access to IPO allocation and&nbsp;financing; and 3) save costs on HK stock clearing. For its overseas expansion, we estimate&nbsp;Tiger acquired over 60k paying clients in Singapore in 1Q21, which exceeded new adds&nbsp;from mainland China, and we expect this momentum should continue given its trading app&nbsp;ranks top among finance apps in Singapore app stores. Tiger achieved net margin of 29%&nbsp;in 1Q21 (vs. 16% in 2020) and we see further upside potential. This compares with 53%&nbsp;net margin for Futu in the same quarter. Tiger’s current market cap is only 16% of Futu’s&nbsp;while its client assets are 36% of Futu’s as of 1Q21. Tiger is now our preferred pick in the&nbsp;online broker sector and we view the HK license acquisition as the key upside catalyst.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7012b2830c8bc0d89ef2f73c2f660412\" tg-width=\"541\" tg-height=\"423\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>1Q21 results highlights.</b>&nbsp;In 1Q21, Tiger added 117k new paying clients with over 50%&nbsp;from overseas markets, and total paying clients reached 376k, up 180% YoY.

Trading volume was US$124bn, up 181% YoY (89% QoQ) with annualized&nbsp;trading velocity of 27x. Tiger participated in 14 IPOs and underwrote eight of them.

The camera on the front will likely be used for video calls, while the rear camera can be detached to capture photos and videos for Facebook's family of apps.</p>\n<p>Facebook is also reportedly in talks with companies to develop accessories for attaching the camera to backpacks and other objects. Previous rumors regarding the watch suggested it will sport health-tracking features, run on a stand-alone cellular connection, and use a custom version of the Android operating system. Could this long-rumored device help Facebook challenge <b>Apple</b> (NASDAQ:AAPL) in the smartwatch market?</p>\n<h2>Why is Facebook developing a smartwatch?</h2>\n<p>Facebook generated 97% of its revenue from ads last quarter. The remaining 3% came from its \"other\" businesses, which include its Oculus virtual reality (VR) headsets and Portal smart screens. It might initially seem odd for Facebook to add a smartwatch to that lineup, but it would actually complement its previous hardware strategies.</p>\n<p>Facebook's strongest hardware business is its lineup of Oculus VR headsets. It could ship at least three million Oculus Quest 2 headsets this year, according to SuperData. That would make the stand-alone VR headset, which doesn't require a PC or phone, the clear leader of its niche market.</p>\n<p>Looking beyond VR devices, Facebook is developing augmented reality (AR) glasses that will use similar controls as its Oculus headsets. It also acquired CTRL-Labs, which is developing a wristband that can use brain signals to control computers, in late 2019. In theory, CTRL-Labs' technology could eventually enable users to control VR and AR devices with \"mind-reading\" wristbands instead of controllers in the future.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Facebook's Portal devices haven't gained much momentum against <b>Amazon</b> (NASDAQ:AMZN) or <b>Alphabet</b>'s (NASDAQ:GOOGL) (NASDAQ:GOOG) Google in the smart screen market. That failure likely dashed Facebook's hopes of expanding its social networking platforms beyond PCs and phones and into connected homes.</p>\n<p>When you put all those pieces together, you'll realize Facebook's smartwatch could be used to enhance control of its VR and AR devices, or to expand its social networks into the Internet of Things (IoT) and perhaps succeed where the Portal failed. Facebook could also eventually upgrade its watches with CTRL-Labs' technologies and enable users to control other IoT devices with their minds.</p>\n<h2>But let's not get ahead of ourselves... yet</h2>\n<p>Facebook has reportedly spent about $1 billion on the development of its smartwatch over the past few years, but it only initially plans to ship volumes in the low six figures.</p>\n<p>That would make Facebook a tiny smartwatch maker compared to <b>Apple</b> (NASDAQ:AAPL), which grew its Apple Watch shipments 19% to 33.9 million in 2020, according to Counterpoint Research. Apple ended the year with a whopping 40% share of the global smartwatch market.</p>\n<p>Facebook likely realizes its smartwatch will face the same three problems that plagued the Portal: a deep distrust of Facebook's brand, privacy concerns, and its late arrival into a saturated market. Google also encountered similar criticisms after its recent takeover of Fitbit.</p>\n<p>Facebook reportedly plans to launch its smartwatch next summer for about $400. But a lot could happen within the next year, and new smartwatches -- including a new version of the Apple Watch -- could easily steal Facebook's thunder. A smartwatch with two cameras could also be considered complicated and redundant, especially when smartphones and action cameras serve the same purposes.</p>\n<h2>The key takeaways</h2>\n<p>The global smartwatch market could still grow from $59 billion this year to nearly $100 billion in 2025, according to Research and Markets. That's great news for Apple, but it also suggests the market might still be big enough for newcomers like Facebook to gain a foothold.</p>\n<p>But investors should take all these rumors with a grain of salt until Facebook actually makes an official announcement. Even if Facebook's smartwatch fares better than the Portal, it probably won't generate a meaningful percentage of its revenue or reduce its overall dependence on ads.</p>\n<p>Instead, it should be considered a potential expansion of its ecosystem beyond PCs and phones, which might just complement its ongoing push into the virtual and augmented reality markets.</p>","source":"fool_stock","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>Facebook's Hardware Business Is Creeping Into Apple's Backyard</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\">\nFacebook's Hardware Business Is Creeping Into Apple's Backyard\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-16 23:25 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/16/facebooks-hardware-business-is-creeping-into-apple/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) could be developing a smartwatch with two cameras, according to The Verge.

In theory, CTRL-Labs' technology could eventually enable users to control VR and AR devices with \"mind-reading\" wristbands instead of controllers in the future.\nMeanwhile, Facebook's Portal devices haven't gained much momentum against Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) or Alphabet's (NASDAQ:GOOGL) (NASDAQ:GOOG) Google in the smart screen market. That failure likely dashed Facebook's hopes of expanding its social networking platforms beyond PCs and phones and into connected homes.\nWhen you put all those pieces together, you'll realize Facebook's smartwatch could be used to enhance control of its VR and AR devices, or to expand its social networks into the Internet of Things (IoT) and perhaps succeed where the Portal failed. Facebook could also eventually upgrade its watches with CTRL-Labs' technologies and enable users to control other IoT devices with their minds.\nBut let's not get ahead of ourselves... yet\nFacebook has reportedly spent about $1 billion on the development of its smartwatch over the past few years, but it only initially plans to ship volumes in the low six figures.\nThat would make Facebook a tiny smartwatch maker compared to Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), which grew its Apple Watch shipments 19% to 33.9 million in 2020, according to Counterpoint Research. Apple ended the year with a whopping 40% share of the global smartwatch market.\nFacebook likely realizes its smartwatch will face the same three problems that plagued the Portal: a deep distrust of Facebook's brand, privacy concerns, and its late arrival into a saturated market. Google also encountered similar criticisms after its recent takeover of Fitbit.\nFacebook reportedly plans to launch its smartwatch next summer for about $400. But a lot could happen within the next year, and new smartwatches -- including a new version of the Apple Watch -- could easily steal Facebook's thunder. A smartwatch with two cameras could also be considered complicated and redundant, especially when smartphones and action cameras serve the same purposes.\nThe key takeaways\nThe global smartwatch market could still grow from $59 billion this year to nearly $100 billion in 2025, according to Research and Markets. That's great news for Apple, but it also suggests the market might still be big enough for newcomers like Facebook to gain a foothold.\nBut investors should take all these rumors with a grain of salt until Facebook actually makes an official announcement. Even if Facebook's smartwatch fares better than the Portal, it probably won't generate a meaningful percentage of its revenue or reduce its overall dependence on ads.\nInstead, it should be considered a potential expansion of its ecosystem beyond PCs and phones, which might just complement its ongoing push into the virtual and augmented reality markets.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":578,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184310779,"gmtCreate":1623683848491,"gmtModify":1704208695195,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment pls&nbsp;","listText":"Like and comment pls&nbsp;","text":"Like and comment pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/184310779","repostId":"2143378010","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143378010","pubTimestamp":1623681094,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2143378010?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-14 22:31","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 dips from record closing high as focus shifts to Fed meet","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143378010","media":"Reuters","summary":"* Lordstown slumps after CEO, CFO resign\n* Tech-heavy Nasdaq outperforms S&P 500, Dow\n* Indexes: Dow","content":"<p>* Lordstown slumps after CEO, CFO resign</p>\n<p>* Tech-heavy Nasdaq outperforms S&amp;P 500, Dow</p>\n<p>* Indexes: Dow down 0.4%, S&amp;P drops 0.1%, Nasdaq up 0.3% (Adds comment, details; updates prices)</p>\n<p>June 14 (Reuters) - The S&amp;P 500 and the Dow eased on Monday, a day after the S&amp;P 500 hit a record closing high, as investors awaited cues from the Federal Reserve's meeting this week on the central bank's outlook on inflation and the future of bond purchases.</p>\n<p>The technology-heavy Nasdaq rose for the sixth time in the past seven sessions, lifted by gains in shares of Tesla Inc, Apple Inc and Amazon.com Inc.</p>\n<p>Recent data has indicated that the U.S. economy is regaining momentum but not overheating, taming worries about inflation and sending the S&amp;P 500 to an all-time high.</p>\n<p>While the Fed has reassured that any spike in inflation would be transitory, policymakers could begin discussing the tapering of bond buying at the Tuesday-Wednesday meeting.

It is aimed at developers and creators to create software experiences for the device that can later be offered to consumers.The new Spectacles indicate Snap’s intensified push into hardware as it deals with stiff competition from companies such as Facebook Inc. and Apple Inc. that have intensified their focus on the AR/VR segment in recent years.Snap’s expansion of monetization opportunities for creators is part of its efforts to lure more users and create more sources of revenue instead of relying just on advertising.Price Action:Snap shares closed almost 5.9% higher in Thursday’s regular trading session at $57.07 and further rose 0.4% in the after-hours session to $57.30.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":248,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":139027816,"gmtCreate":1621577178235,"gmtModify":1704359957970,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/139027816","repostId":"1107247661","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1107247661","pubTimestamp":1621574976,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1107247661?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-21 13:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood Buys Another $59M In Coinbase As Bitcoin Recovers, Entirely Cuts Apple Stake","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1107247661","media":"benzinga","summary":"Cathie Wood-led Ark Investment Management on Thursday snapped up 254,738 shares, worth about $59.46 ","content":"<p>Cathie Wood-led Ark Investment Management on Thursday snapped up 254,738 shares, worth about $59.46 million, in&nbsp;<b>CoinbaseGlobal Inc</b>(NASDAQ:COIN) as the cryptocurrency exchange bounced back after a bullish call from analysts.</p><p>The New York-based investment firm bought the shares via the<b>ARK Fintech Innovation ETF</b>(NYSE:ARKF) and the<b>Ark Innovation ETF</b>(NYSE:ARKK).</p><p>Ark held a total of 3.95 million COIN shares, worth about $887.8 million, ahead of Thursday’s trade via ARKF, ARKK and the&nbsp;<b>ARK Next Generation Internet ETF</b>(NYSE:ARKW).</p><p>Loop Capital's Kourtney Gibson told CNBC on Thursday he believes Coinbase could be worth $400 to $450 per share and Wedbush analyst Moshe Katriinitiated coverage on the crypto exchangewith an Outperform rating and a price target of $275.</p><p>On Wednesday, Wood forecast<b>Bitcoin</b>(CRYPTO: $BTC) toreach $500,000 per coin.</p><p>Coinbase shares closed 3.83% higher at $233.40 on Thursday.</p><p>Ark also completely divested its residual&nbsp;<b>Apple Inc</b>(NASDAQ:AAPL) stake as it sold 188 shares.

In the event of successful execution, the valuation will take many years to be justified. For these reasons, GameStop is a very poor long term investment. We will outline our bearish thesis below.</p>\n<p><b>GameStop Forced To Go To E-Commerce</b></p>\n<p>GameStop has long been known among consumers as a brick and mortar centric video game retailer. When I was growing up (I'm now in my early 30s), I used to camp out in front of GameStop at midnight, waiting with friends for the latest release of our favorite games. While you could get games at nearly any retailer, the ability to trade in old games for store credit, and large product selection found at a gaming focused store such as GameStop was compelling for me as a gamer.</p>\n<p>Today, the way in which gaming is delivered to the consumer is far different. In many cases, games can be purchased (and pre-ordered) digitally. Fast internet speeds mean that games can be downloaded and played within minutes or sometimes a few hours. The rise of Amazon has brought the shopping experience to one's fingertips.</p>\n<p>These secular changes have slowly deteriorated GameStop's store traffic and resulting revenues.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d0690d871cc1287d7d877083b48b74d0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"377\">source: YCharts</p>\n<p>This significant decline in GameStop's business has forced the company to evolve, and begin the journey of shifting towards an e-commerce model. This has been led by an activist investor in Chewy co-founder Ryan Cohen, who got involved with GameStop in September of 2020.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/084ae308b6cc58704e8982e61b213408\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"162\">source: GameStop Corp.</p>\n<p>The company's plan is to strip costs out of the business by closing stores, cutting expenses, and devoting its resources to optimizing its product footprint while fleshing out the logistics needed for an e-commerce centric market strategy. These efforts remain in-motion. The company has closed roughly 1,000 stores through the end of 2020, andrecently leaseda 700K square-foot facility that will serve as a fulfillment center.</p>\n<p>To GameStop's credit, the business has seen signs of improvement. The company is currently debt free.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/575ba6c4954d66961e0a8550dcf561af\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"369\">source: YCharts</p>\n<p>The company has also raised capital with a timely equity raise in early 2021. GameStop raised $551 million on 3.5 million shares, averaging a price per share of $157. Considering the company has repurchased more than a third of its stock since spring 2019 at an average of $5.21/share, this is a phenomenal move on GameStop's part. This newfound capital will be needed as the company's transformation efforts are far from over.</p>\n<p>Multiple Margin Pressures Threaten Profitability</p>\n<p>While successful e-commerce models can be powerful, the formation of the e-commerce model can be costly. Infrastructure needs to be put into place, and the digital marketplace brings competition from all over.</p>\n<p>GameStop's financials are in a much better place at present. However over the long term, its largest challenge in pivoting to e-commerce is making the model profitable over the long term. There are a number of concerns I have about GameStop's ability to do this.</p>\n<p><b>Smaller Scale</b></p>\n<p>E-commerce is a \"cut-throat\" business, where scale is your friend. GameStop is seeking an e-commerce model that will pit it against much larger competitors such as Amazon (AMZN), Walmart (WMT), and Target (TGT). These companies have significantly higher scale than GameStop, including larger revenues (and balance sheets).</p>\n<p>In a retail space where the product is commoditized (gaming hardware/software is the same regardless of where you buy from unless a developer partnership is in place), there is not room for much mark-up and the larger players can take more \"pain\" to take/protect market share.</p>\n<p><b>Product Mix</b></p>\n<p>Another concern I have with GameStop is the company's product mix moving forward. Game distribution continues to move increasingly digital, and is a trend that I don't see reversing. It's simply far too convenient for gamers because they can buy/pre-order a game, and it can be downloaded relatively quickly thanks to faster internet speeds available today.</p>\n<p>This has been reinforced by console makers. The Xbox Series S lacks a disc drive, and the PlayStation 5 also offers a variant that does not include a disc drive.</p>\n<p>GameStop knows that software sales are in secular decline, and has indicated an intention to focus on hardware and accessories including:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Computers</li>\n <li>Monitors</li>\n <li>Game Tables</li>\n <li>Mobile Gaming</li>\n <li>Gaming TVs</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The problem for GameStop, is that these declining software sales carried the highest margins for the company.</p>\n<p>From GameStop's 2020Q4 earnings call:</p>\n<blockquote>\n <i>\"From a product margin standpoint, overall gross margins were 21.1%, down 610 basis points from our more software-led 27.2% gross margin in the fiscal fourth quarter last year. The decline was driven by an expected increase in mix of lower margin hardware sales, a continued increase in industry-wide freight costs, credit card processing fees driven by our higher penetration of e-commerce sales, and a broader promotional stance.\"</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p>So GameStop is pivoting to lower margin, higher cost items - probably because it knows it has to. This isn't to say that GameStop can't pull it off, but the conflict is quite obvious.</p>\n<p><b>GameStop Needs To Repair Its Brand Image</b></p>\n<p>Perhaps the largest question mark I have about GameStop - even more than the economics of its future business model, is the company's branding. GameStop talks about being this gamer-centric, customer driven model that consumers love.</p>\n<p>However, this doesn't seem to be the current state of GameStop's brand. The company has been poked fun at on the internet for its \"low-ball\" offers on gamer trade-ins.</p>\n<p>GameStop also possesses a NPS (net promoter score) of -6according to Comparably. As a gamer myself, I had a \"bad taste\" in my mouth when sourcing my Xbox Series X. GameStop often tied its inventory of next-generation consoles to large expansive bundles that included high margin games and accessories that many consumers didn't want. If GameStop expects to become a modernized \"go-to\" shopping experience for gamers, they have work to do in the brand power department.</p>\n<p><b>The Long Path To Profitability Is Too Large A Risk</b></p>\n<p>GameStop can certainly address these concerns over time. The company's recent equity raise if anything, buys them time to try and execute this transition. This is also asking investors in GameStop to take on risk. While shares of GameStop have pulled back considerably, the stock still trades at $143 per share, multiples of what it did as recently as the beginning of the year.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fcc11261f3b8202eaa6b86d9f99c97b0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"375\">source: YCharts</p>\n<p>The company is not a growth stock, and therefore should be valued on earnings. But GameStop is losing money, and will not turn a profit anytime soon. Analysts see the company steadily getting closer to break even, breaking that barrier in FY2024 (three years from now).</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fa4040ac389c6925d97545645ac30c98\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"226\">source: Seeking Alpha</p>\n<p>But if GameStop achieves 2024 estimates of earning $1.35 per share, that means that the stock's current valuation is a whopping 106X 2024 earnings(!). Investing is about risk and reward, and I can't make the case to pay that valuation. Investors have to essentially give up the opportunity cost of investing elsewhere over this time frame, hope that GameStop can execute successfully, and then wait longer for the business to grow into its valuation over a 5+ year time horizon. Frankly, it seems silly.</p>\n<p><b>Wrapping Up</b></p>\n<p>When you put all of this together, GameStop offers a terrible risk/reward to investors. In a worst case scenario, GameStop fails to execute its e-commerce model and goes out of business. In a best case scenario, investors will wait years to justify the current valuation. When the outcome is lose/lose, I would rather not play at all.</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>GameStop: Why The 'Blockbuster' Of Gaming Will Eventually Fail</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\">\nGameStop: Why The 'Blockbuster' Of Gaming Will Eventually Fail\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-12 19:55 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4427260-gamestop-why-blockbuster-gaming-eventually-fail><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nGameStop has been a highly debated stock after a surge of retail interest turned the company into a \"meme stock\" and drove shares into triple figures.\nThe company is pivoting to e-commerce ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4427260-gamestop-why-blockbuster-gaming-eventually-fail\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GME":"游戏驿站"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4427260-gamestop-why-blockbuster-gaming-eventually-fail","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1154735458","content_text":"Summary\n\nGameStop has been a highly debated stock after a surge of retail interest turned the company into a \"meme stock\" and drove shares into triple figures.\nThe company is pivoting to e-commerce and has admittedly cleaned up its balance sheet nicely.\nThe long-term problem is that the company faces margin pressures from a number of angles.

We will outline our bearish thesis below.\nGameStop Forced To Go To E-Commerce\nGameStop has long been known among consumers as a brick and mortar centric video game retailer. When I was growing up (I'm now in my early 30s), I used to camp out in front of GameStop at midnight, waiting with friends for the latest release of our favorite games. While you could get games at nearly any retailer, the ability to trade in old games for store credit, and large product selection found at a gaming focused store such as GameStop was compelling for me as a gamer.\nToday, the way in which gaming is delivered to the consumer is far different. In many cases, games can be purchased (and pre-ordered) digitally. Fast internet speeds mean that games can be downloaded and played within minutes or sometimes a few hours. The rise of Amazon has brought the shopping experience to one's fingertips.\nThese secular changes have slowly deteriorated GameStop's store traffic and resulting revenues.\nsource: YCharts\nThis significant decline in GameStop's business has forced the company to evolve, and begin the journey of shifting towards an e-commerce model. This has been led by an activist investor in Chewy co-founder Ryan Cohen, who got involved with GameStop in September of 2020.\nsource: GameStop Corp.\nThe company's plan is to strip costs out of the business by closing stores, cutting expenses, and devoting its resources to optimizing its product footprint while fleshing out the logistics needed for an e-commerce centric market strategy. These efforts remain in-motion. The company has closed roughly 1,000 stores through the end of 2020, andrecently leaseda 700K square-foot facility that will serve as a fulfillment center.\nTo GameStop's credit, the business has seen signs of improvement. The company is currently debt free.\nsource: YCharts\nThe company has also raised capital with a timely equity raise in early 2021. GameStop raised $551 million on 3.5 million shares, averaging a price per share of $157. Considering the company has repurchased more than a third of its stock since spring 2019 at an average of $5.21/share, this is a phenomenal move on GameStop's part. This newfound capital will be needed as the company's transformation efforts are far from over.\nMultiple Margin Pressures Threaten Profitability\nWhile successful e-commerce models can be powerful, the formation of the e-commerce model can be costly. Infrastructure needs to be put into place, and the digital marketplace brings competition from all over.\nGameStop's financials are in a much better place at present. However over the long term, its largest challenge in pivoting to e-commerce is making the model profitable over the long term. There are a number of concerns I have about GameStop's ability to do this.\nSmaller Scale\nE-commerce is a \"cut-throat\" business, where scale is your friend. GameStop is seeking an e-commerce model that will pit it against much larger competitors such as Amazon (AMZN), Walmart (WMT), and Target (TGT). These companies have significantly higher scale than GameStop, including larger revenues (and balance sheets).\nIn a retail space where the product is commoditized (gaming hardware/software is the same regardless of where you buy from unless a developer partnership is in place), there is not room for much mark-up and the larger players can take more \"pain\" to take/protect market share.\nProduct Mix\nAnother concern I have with GameStop is the company's product mix moving forward. Game distribution continues to move increasingly digital, and is a trend that I don't see reversing. It's simply far too convenient for gamers because they can buy/pre-order a game, and it can be downloaded relatively quickly thanks to faster internet speeds available today.\nThis has been reinforced by console makers. The Xbox Series S lacks a disc drive, and the PlayStation 5 also offers a variant that does not include a disc drive.\nGameStop knows that software sales are in secular decline, and has indicated an intention to focus on hardware and accessories including:\n\nComputers\nMonitors\nGame Tables\nMobile Gaming\nGaming TVs\n\nThe problem for GameStop, is that these declining software sales carried the highest margins for the company.\nFrom GameStop's 2020Q4 earnings call:\n\n\"From a product margin standpoint, overall gross margins were 21.1%, down 610 basis points from our more software-led 27.2% gross margin in the fiscal fourth quarter last year. The decline was driven by an expected increase in mix of lower margin hardware sales, a continued increase in industry-wide freight costs, credit card processing fees driven by our higher penetration of e-commerce sales, and a broader promotional stance.\"\n\nSo GameStop is pivoting to lower margin, higher cost items - probably because it knows it has to. This isn't to say that GameStop can't pull it off, but the conflict is quite obvious.\nGameStop Needs To Repair Its Brand Image\nPerhaps the largest question mark I have about GameStop - even more than the economics of its future business model, is the company's branding. GameStop talks about being this gamer-centric, customer driven model that consumers love.\nHowever, this doesn't seem to be the current state of GameStop's brand. The company has been poked fun at on the internet for its \"low-ball\" offers on gamer trade-ins.\nGameStop also possesses a NPS (net promoter score) of -6according to Comparably. As a gamer myself, I had a \"bad taste\" in my mouth when sourcing my Xbox Series X. GameStop often tied its inventory of next-generation consoles to large expansive bundles that included high margin games and accessories that many consumers didn't want. If GameStop expects to become a modernized \"go-to\" shopping experience for gamers, they have work to do in the brand power department.\nThe Long Path To Profitability Is Too Large A Risk\nGameStop can certainly address these concerns over time. The company's recent equity raise if anything, buys them time to try and execute this transition. This is also asking investors in GameStop to take on risk. While shares of GameStop have pulled back considerably, the stock still trades at $143 per share, multiples of what it did as recently as the beginning of the year.\nsource: YCharts\nThe company is not a growth stock, and therefore should be valued on earnings. But GameStop is losing money, and will not turn a profit anytime soon. Analysts see the company steadily getting closer to break even, breaking that barrier in FY2024 (three years from now).\nsource: Seeking Alpha\nBut if GameStop achieves 2024 estimates of earning $1.35 per share, that means that the stock's current valuation is a whopping 106X 2024 earnings(!). Investing is about risk and reward, and I can't make the case to pay that valuation. Investors have to essentially give up the opportunity cost of investing elsewhere over this time frame, hope that GameStop can execute successfully, and then wait longer for the business to grow into its valuation over a 5+ year time horizon. Frankly, it seems silly.\nWrapping Up\nWhen you put all of this together, GameStop offers a terrible risk/reward to investors. In a worst case scenario, GameStop fails to execute its e-commerce model and goes out of business. In a best case scenario, investors will wait years to justify the current valuation. When the outcome is lose/lose, I would rather not play at all.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":315,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":196397795,"gmtCreate":1621012909717,"gmtModify":1704352000521,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Different times","listText":"Different times","text":"Different times","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/196397795","repostId":"2135710626","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2135710626","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":1620982380,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2135710626?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-14 16:53","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Early Tesla backer and top fund manager attacks Warren Buffett's strategy.

He cited Tesla's ambitions in autonomous vehicles, which the fund views as possibly transformative for the economics of the company -- despite not having any idea how successful it will be.\"To us it is bizarre that brokers, hedge fund mavens and commentators can claim to be able to decipher the future and assign a precise numerical target to the value of Tesla,\" he said.In his final annual results at Scottish Mortgage, Anderson pointed to renewable energy, synthetic biology, and the changing landscape in healthcare innovation as among the revolutionary forces ahead in the market.Describing what makes for a great investment, he cited Amazon and its founder Jeff Bezos as a model. \"The company should have open-ended growth opportunities that they should work hard never to define or time,\" he said, alongside \"initial leadership that thinks like a founder (and almost always is one)\" as well as a distinctive philosophy of business.Today, Scottish Mortgage's top 10 holdings, in order of portfolio weight, are Tencent, biotechnology-equipment group Illumina (ILMN), Dutch semiconductor industry supplier ASML (ASML.AE), Amazon, Tesla, Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba $(09988)$, Chinese local services platform Meituan Dianping , U.S. biotech group Moderna $(MRNA)$, Chinese EV player NIO $(NIO)$, and European food-delivery group Delivery Hero.\"There's much that I have misunderstood and misjudged over the two decades,\" Anderson said, urging those that follow him to be eccentric, and to place trust in unreasonable people and propositions. \"My ever-growing conviction is that my greatest failing has been to be insufficiently radical.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":306,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":373871597,"gmtCreate":1618840740019,"gmtModify":1704715699485,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like and reply&nbsp;","listText":"Pls like and reply&nbsp;","text":"Pls like and reply","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/373871597","repostId":"2128891908","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2128891908","pubTimestamp":1618840636,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2128891908?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-19 21:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Facebook Will Challenge Clubhouse With New Social Audio Products","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2128891908","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"This social media company will soon be competing for viewers and listeners.","content":"<p>According to the news website Vox, <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a></b> (NASDAQ:FB) has big plans in the audio space, including a product to challenge Clubhouse, a voice-only&nbsp;social media platform that allows users to chat or listen in on conversations.</p>\n<p>Facebook is expected to announce several new products today, including an audio-only version of&nbsp;Messenger Rooms, a videoconferencing platform designed to compete with the likes of <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZM\">Zoom</a> Video Communications</b> and <b>Microsoft&nbsp;</b>Teams; and a podcast discovery tool that will connect with <b>Spotify Technology</b>.</p>\n<p>Facebook also plans to update its News Feed, allowing users to record and post audio snippets to their home page.

Believe me, they will not stay that way,” he said.\n\nBig bank earnings are out and the results were positive enough to quell one concern about their valuations, CNBC’s Jim Cramer said Thursday.\nThe stocks of large financial institutions like JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo have surged from last summer, far outgaining the market.\nCramer, himself an alum of Goldman Sachs’ investment shop, said their quarterly numbers had to be strong enough to support their current valuations.\n“We’ve got one less thing to worry about now that earnings season’s gotten rolling. The banks are doing pretty darned good, even if their stocks don’t necessarily reflect that fact,” the “Mad Money” host said.\nJP Morgan, Goldman and Wells Fargo all posted results on Wednesday, followed the next day by Citigroup and Bank of America. Despite each company showing top and bottom-line beats in the first quarter this year, their stock trades diverged in the wake of their reports.\nAfter reviewing the reports, Cramer doubled down on his conviction that the banks are worth getting behind.\n“I am still bullish on the financials, especially the investment banks like ‘Goldman Slacks’ and the turnaround plays like Wells Fargo,” he said. “After these numbers, the banks have gotten dirt cheap. Believe me, they will not stay that way.”\nBelow is a round-up of Cramer’s reaction to earnings reports from the five financial giants:\nGoldman Sachs\n\nEarnings: $18.60 per share vs. $10.22 per share expected by analysts polled by Refinitiv.\nRevenue: $17.7 billion vs. $12.6 billion expected.\n\n“The numbers were so strong, I’m bringing back the old [nickname] … I’m calling them ‘Golden Slacks,’” Cramer said. “If it traded at 10-times earnings, this would be a $413 stock … I’m betting that is where it’s headed, especially now that Goldman’s allowed to buy back stock.”\nJPMorgan\n\nEarnings:$4.59 per share vs. $3.10 per share expected by analysts polled by Refinitiv.\nRevenue: $33.12 billion vs. $30.52 billion expected.\n\n“To me, this was the second-best report yesterday, although the market seemed to disagree as investors sold the news. But make no mistake, the numbers were fantastic,” he said. “I think the pullback in JP Morgan stock is a buying opportunity, plain and simple, and clearly somebody agrees because the stock started rebounding today.”\nWells Fargo\n\nEarnings: $1.05 in earnings per share versus 70 cents a share expected, according to Refinitiv.\nRevenue: $18.06 billion versus $17.5 billion expected.\n\n“Wells Fargo roared yesterday because this is viewed as more of a turnaround story than a banking story, which is why we actually own it for my charitable trust,” Cramer said. “I keep telling you it’s a better buy than JP Morgan because the expectations are much lower for Wells, and yesterday they absolutely cleared that low bar.”\nCiti\n\nEarnings: $3.62 a share, vs. $2.60 a share expected, according to Refinitiv.\nRevenue: $19.3 billion, vs. $18.8 billion expected\n\n“Just like the banks that reported yesterday, Citi’s got a lot of strength on the investment banking side, but traditional consumer banking was a lot less impressive,” he said. “If I had to rank this quarter, you know what, I’d put it right below JP Morgan’s.”\nBank of America\n\nEarnings:86 cents a share, vs. 66 cents a share expected by analysts polled by Refinitiv.\nRevenue: $22.9 billion, vs. $22.1 billion expected.\n\n“It got the worst reaction from the market. I’m going to say that the market’s wrong. It tumbled nearly 3% today. I thought it was insulting,” Cramer said. “There was nothing particularly surprising in the quarter itself. Do not despair. If we get a couple of rate hikes, this is the one to own, and we’re going to get them eventually.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":156,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":370344651,"gmtCreate":1618557343273,"gmtModify":1704712694303,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/370344651","repostId":"1104918036","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1104918036","pubTimestamp":1618555945,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1104918036?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-16 14:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Oracle Is a Cash Cow Software Company Whose Stock Is Undervalued","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1104918036","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"ORCL stock is worth about 65% more based on comp-based FCF yield and P/E metrics.Oracle is a large $","content":"<blockquote>ORCL stock is worth about 65% more based on comp-based FCF yield and P/E metrics.</blockquote><p><b>Oracle</b> is a large $225 billion market capitalization enterprise cloud software company that is a virtual cash cow. But so far, ORCL stock does not seem to reflect its huge profitability. I estimate that ORCL stock is worth at least 30% more than its April 14 price of $76.78.</p><p>Last year, Oracle generated more than $12.8 billion in free cash flow (FCF). This represented 32% of its $39.69 billion in revenue. That is a very high FCF margin.</p><p>So Oracle is very profitable on a cash-flow basis. But ORCL stock does not seem to reflect its huge FCF profits.</p><p><b>ORCL Stock Free Cash Flow, Earnings and Valuation</b></p><p>For example, the company’s $12.8 billion in FCF represents about 5% of its $225 billion market capitalization. This is a very high FCF yield. Most other large software companies have FCF yields at least half of that level.</p><p><b>ServiceNow</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>NOW</u></b>) produced $1.367 billion in FCF compared to its $107.65 billion market value, or an FCF yield of 1.27%. This is just 22% of the ORCL stock FCF yield. In effect, Oracle’s price should be more than three times higher in order for it to have a similar FCF yield.</p><p>Therefore, if ORCL stock traded at a 50% lower FCF yield, its valuation would be $12.8 billion divided by 2.895%, or $442.14 billion. That is well above its present $225 billion market value.</p><p>The same is true with Oracle’s price-to-earnings (P/E). Analysts expect Oracle to make $4.48 earnings per share (EPS) this year and $4.79 next. This puts the stock on a P/E multiple of 17.1 times 2021 earnings and 16 times 2022. But Oracle’s peers havemuch higher P/E multiples.</p><p>Consider that<b>VMWare</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>VMW</u></b>) trades for23 times this year’s forecast earningsand 20 times next year. That represents a 30% higher valuation metric on average between the two years.</p><p>So based on its FCF yield, ORCL stock should be double its April 14 price, and based on its P/E it should be 30% higher. This averages out to a 65% higher price, or $126.75 per share.</p><p>The company’s latest earnings release seems to bear out a higher valuation. Oracle produced20% higher non-GAAP net incomein its fiscal third quarter. Moreover, subscription revenue now accounts for 72% of Oracle’s total sales. This helps make its net income more predictable and recurring in nature.</p><p><b>A Matter of Earnings</b></p><p>Oracle uses its free cash flow to benefit its shareholders. The company pays a healthy dividend and has a 1.67% dividend yield.</p><p>Moreover, the company bought back $18 billion of its own shares last year. That represents 8.1% of market capitalization. In other words, it reduced the share count by 185.2 million shares or 6%. This is effectively a return of capital to shareholders.</p><p>The reason is that by buying back shares, the company can both increase its dividend per share for the same amount of money since there are fewer shares outstanding.

But so far, ORCL stock does not seem to reflect its huge profitability. I estimate that ORCL stock is worth at least 30% more than its April 14 price of $76.78.Last year, Oracle generated more than $12.8 billion in free cash flow (FCF). This represented 32% of its $39.69 billion in revenue. That is a very high FCF margin.So Oracle is very profitable on a cash-flow basis. But ORCL stock does not seem to reflect its huge FCF profits.ORCL Stock Free Cash Flow, Earnings and ValuationFor example, the company’s $12.8 billion in FCF represents about 5% of its $225 billion market capitalization. This is a very high FCF yield. Most other large software companies have FCF yields at least half of that level.ServiceNow (NYSE:NOW) produced $1.367 billion in FCF compared to its $107.65 billion market value, or an FCF yield of 1.27%. This is just 22% of the ORCL stock FCF yield. In effect, Oracle’s price should be more than three times higher in order for it to have a similar FCF yield.Therefore, if ORCL stock traded at a 50% lower FCF yield, its valuation would be $12.8 billion divided by 2.895%, or $442.14 billion. That is well above its present $225 billion market value.The same is true with Oracle’s price-to-earnings (P/E). Analysts expect Oracle to make $4.48 earnings per share (EPS) this year and $4.79 next. This puts the stock on a P/E multiple of 17.1 times 2021 earnings and 16 times 2022. But Oracle’s peers havemuch higher P/E multiples.Consider thatVMWare (NYSE:VMW) trades for23 times this year’s forecast earningsand 20 times next year. That represents a 30% higher valuation metric on average between the two years.So based on its FCF yield, ORCL stock should be double its April 14 price, and based on its P/E it should be 30% higher. This averages out to a 65% higher price, or $126.75 per share.The company’s latest earnings release seems to bear out a higher valuation. Oracle produced20% higher non-GAAP net incomein its fiscal third quarter. Moreover, subscription revenue now accounts for 72% of Oracle’s total sales. This helps make its net income more predictable and recurring in nature.A Matter of EarningsOracle uses its free cash flow to benefit its shareholders. The company pays a healthy dividend and has a 1.67% dividend yield.Moreover, the company bought back $18 billion of its own shares last year. That represents 8.1% of market capitalization. In other words, it reduced the share count by 185.2 million shares or 6%. This is effectively a return of capital to shareholders.The reason is that by buying back shares, the company can both increase its dividend per share for the same amount of money since there are fewer shares outstanding. In addition, its earnings per share increase since there are fewer shares outstanding.But this only works if the price-to-earnings ratio increases. ORCL stock has not risen enough to raise its price-to-earnings ratio given its growth rate and its lower number of shares outstanding.Measuring ORCL GainLet’s assume that it takes three years for the stock to reflect the 65% higher stock-price target. That means that the average annual gain in the stock will be 18.2% annually. This is a decent return for most investors. If it takes just two years, the average annual return will be 28.45%.The total return will be even higher. Over three years, including the dividend yield, the stock will return 19.87%. Over two years, ORCL stock will have a total return of 30.1%. And this still does not include the effect of the company’s buybacks. That would add another 6% to the total yield.Therefore, the total yield return will be 24.2% annually over three years (i.e., 18.2% plus 6% buyback yield), or 36.1% annually over two years. These are very good prospective ROIs for most investors.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":153,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":139050459,"gmtCreate":1621577313171,"gmtModify":1704359961042,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment pls","listText":"Like and comment pls","text":"Like and comment pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/139050459","repostId":"1179075310","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1179075310","pubTimestamp":1621576387,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1179075310?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-21 13:53","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Snapchat Confirms AR Glasses Launch, To Let Users Tip Creators: All You Need To Know","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1179075310","media":"benzinga","summary":"Snap Inc. , the parent company of Snapchat, unveiled an augmented-reality version of its Spectacles ","content":"<p><b>Snap Inc.</b>&nbsp;, the parent company of Snapchat, unveiled an augmented-reality version of its Spectacles smart glasses on Thursday.</p><p><b>What Happened</b>: The new Spectacles have built-in AR displays and can display 3D effects onto the real world.

The S&P 500 dipped 0.75% to 4,327.16 and the Nasdaq Composite shed 0.8% to 14,427.24.\nThe three averages closed the week lower to each snap 3-week win streaks. The Dow ended the week down 0.52%, while the S&P 500 dipped 0.97% and the Nasdaq Composite fell 1.87% during the same period.\n\nA U.S.consumer sentimentindex from the University of Michigan came in at 80.8 for the first half of July, down from 85.5 last month and worse than estimates from economists, who projected an increase. The report released Friday showed inflation expectations rising, with consumers believing prices will increase 4.8% in the next year, the highest level since August 2008.\nThe Dow gave up its gains early Friday shortly after the University of Michigan report came out 30 minutes into the session. Losses increased as the day went on with major averages closing at the lows of the session.\nThe consumer sentiment weakness “is at face value hard to square with the acceleration in employment growth and the continued resilience of the stock market,” said Andrew Hunter, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics, but the report “suggested that concerns over surging inflation are now outweighing those positive trends.”\nInflation fears\nThe market was held back all week by inflation fears although the S&P 500 and Dow did touch new all-time highs briefly. On Tuesday, theconsumer price indexshowed a 5.4% increase in June from a year ago, the fastest pace in nearly 13 years.\nStocks got off to a good start Friday with the Dow rising more than 100 points to above 35,000 shortly after the open.Data released before the bell showed retail and food service salesrose 0.6% in June, while economists surveyed by Dow Jones had expected a 0.4% decline. If that level held, it would have been the Dow’s first close ever above 35,000.\nDespite the week’s losses, the Dow is still up 13% for the year and sits just 1.15% from an all-time high. The S&P 500 is up 15% on the year and is 1.51% below its record level.\n“The market looks broadly fairly valued to me, with most stocks priced to provide a market rate of return plus or minus a few percent,” Bill Miller, chairman and chief investment officer of Miller Value Partners,said in an investor letter.\n“There are pockets of what look like appreciable over-valuation and pockets of significant undervaluation in the US market, in my opinion. We can find plenty of names to fill our portfolios and so remain fully invested,” the value investor added.\nEnergy correction\nEnergy stocks, the hottest part of the market in 2021, fell into correction territory on Friday as oil prices pulled back from their highs.\nThe Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund fell more than 2% on Friday, the worst of any group, dropping 14% from its high. Still, the sector is up about 28% in 2021, making it the top performer of any of the 11 main industry groups.\nWeaker performance from technology stocks also weighed on the market Friday. Shares of Apple closed 1.4% lower afternotching a record closejust two days prior. Netflix shares fell ahead of the streaming giant’s second-quarter earnings report next week.\nInvestors digested strong earnings results from the first major week of second-quarter reports. Though some of the nation’s largest companies posted healthy earnings and revenues amid the economic recovery, the reaction in the stock market has so far been muted.\nThe Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund ended the week 1.5% lower despite big profit growth numbers posted by the likes of JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America.\n“Good earnings might have become an excuse for some investors to take profit. And with earnings expectations so high in general, it takes a really big beat for a company to impress,” JJ Kinahan, TD Ameritrade chief market strategist, said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":475,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":373871597,"gmtCreate":1618840740019,"gmtModify":1704715699485,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like and reply&nbsp;","listText":"Pls like and reply&nbsp;","text":"Pls like and reply","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/373871597","repostId":"2128891908","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2128891908","pubTimestamp":1618840636,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2128891908?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-19 21:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Facebook Will Challenge Clubhouse With New Social Audio Products","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2128891908","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"This social media company will soon be competing for viewers and listeners.","content":"<p>According to the news website Vox, <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a></b> (NASDAQ:FB) has big plans in the audio space, including a product to challenge Clubhouse, a voice-only&nbsp;social media platform that allows users to chat or listen in on conversations.</p>\n<p>Facebook is expected to announce several new products today, including an audio-only version of&nbsp;Messenger Rooms, a videoconferencing platform designed to compete with the likes of <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZM\">Zoom</a> Video Communications</b> and <b>Microsoft&nbsp;</b>Teams; and a podcast discovery tool that will connect with <b>Spotify Technology</b>.</p>\n<p>Facebook also plans to update its News Feed, allowing users to record and post audio snippets to their home page.

He said his greatest regret was not making bigger and bolder bets.</p><p>Listen to experts and have faith in the forces of change, despite severe swings in stock prices, James Anderson said in his report with the annual results of Scottish Mortgage Investment Trust .</p><p>Anderson will retire as a partner in asset manager Bailie Gifford and as joint manager of its Scottish Mortgage fund next April. The fund -- a FTSE 100 constituent with a market cap of more than GBP15 billion ($21 billion) -- has enjoyed remarkable gains over its history, marked by big, early bets on technology companies including online retailer Amazon <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">$(AMZN)$</a>, Chinese internet giant Tencent , and electric-car maker Tesla <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">$(TSLA)$</a>, which the fund bought into in 2014.</p><p>Shares in Scottish Mortgage have fallen 9% so far in 2021, but the fund remains up near 60% in the past year.</p><p>In a letter to shareholders, Anderson called the world of conventional asset management \"irretrievably broken,\" and took aim at \"value investing,\" the strategy famously espoused by investors like Ben Graham and Warren Buffett.</p><p>\"The only rhyme is that in the long run the value of stocks is the long-run free cash flows they generate but we have but the barest and most nebulous clues as to what these cash flows will turn out to be,\" Anderson said. \"But woe betide those who think that a near-term price to earnings ratio defines value in an era of deep change.\"</p><p>Since the emergence of digital technologies, \"sustained growth at extreme pace and with increasing returns to scale\" has become more evident, Anderson said. He pointed to tech giant Microsoft <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">$(MSFT)$</a>, which continues to grow after 35 years as a public company.</p><p>\"Distraction through seeking minor opportunities in banal companies over short periods is the perennial temptation. It must be resisted,\" Anderson said.</p><p>He described how the classic and careful investing approach of choosing a level of risk and return along a bell curve is flawed. It \"is neither accepting the deep uncertainty of the world nor acknowledging that the skew of returns is so extreme that it is the search for companies with the characteristics that might enable extreme and compounding success that is central to investing,\" he said.</p><p>But faith is required in investing in high-growth opportunities, Anderson stressed, because share-price crashes happen regularly and are severe. \"The stock charts that look like remorseless bottom left to top right graphs are never as smooth and easy as they subsequently appear,\" he said.</p><p>The fund manager also took a swipe at investors' obsession with short-term metrics -- what he called \"the near pornographic allure of news such as earnings announcements and macroeconomic headlines.\"</p><p>Instead of following \"brokers and the media,\" Anderson advised listening to experts and scientists. Following expert advice on the advances in battery technology was behind Baillie Gifford's decision to invest in Tesla early, he said.

Believe me, they will not stay that way,” he said.\n\nBig bank earnings are out and the results were positive enough to quell one concern about their valuations, CNBC’s Jim Cramer said Thursday.\nThe stocks of large financial institutions like JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo have surged from last summer, far outgaining the market.\nCramer, himself an alum of Goldman Sachs’ investment shop, said their quarterly numbers had to be strong enough to support their current valuations.\n“We’ve got one less thing to worry about now that earnings season’s gotten rolling. The banks are doing pretty darned good, even if their stocks don’t necessarily reflect that fact,” the “Mad Money” host said.\nJP Morgan, Goldman and Wells Fargo all posted results on Wednesday, followed the next day by Citigroup and Bank of America. Despite each company showing top and bottom-line beats in the first quarter this year, their stock trades diverged in the wake of their reports.\nAfter reviewing the reports, Cramer doubled down on his conviction that the banks are worth getting behind.\n“I am still bullish on the financials, especially the investment banks like ‘Goldman Slacks’ and the turnaround plays like Wells Fargo,” he said. “After these numbers, the banks have gotten dirt cheap. Believe me, they will not stay that way.”\nBelow is a round-up of Cramer’s reaction to earnings reports from the five financial giants:\nGoldman Sachs\n\nEarnings: $18.60 per share vs. $10.22 per share expected by analysts polled by Refinitiv.\nRevenue: $17.7 billion vs. $12.6 billion expected.\n\n“The numbers were so strong, I’m bringing back the old [nickname] … I’m calling them ‘Golden Slacks,’” Cramer said. “If it traded at 10-times earnings, this would be a $413 stock … I’m betting that is where it’s headed, especially now that Goldman’s allowed to buy back stock.”\nJPMorgan\n\nEarnings:$4.59 per share vs. $3.10 per share expected by analysts polled by Refinitiv.\nRevenue: $33.12 billion vs. $30.52 billion expected.\n\n“To me, this was the second-best report yesterday, although the market seemed to disagree as investors sold the news. But make no mistake, the numbers were fantastic,” he said. “I think the pullback in JP Morgan stock is a buying opportunity, plain and simple, and clearly somebody agrees because the stock started rebounding today.”\nWells Fargo\n\nEarnings: $1.05 in earnings per share versus 70 cents a share expected, according to Refinitiv.\nRevenue: $18.06 billion versus $17.5 billion expected.\n\n“Wells Fargo roared yesterday because this is viewed as more of a turnaround story than a banking story, which is why we actually own it for my charitable trust,” Cramer said. “I keep telling you it’s a better buy than JP Morgan because the expectations are much lower for Wells, and yesterday they absolutely cleared that low bar.”\nCiti\n\nEarnings: $3.62 a share, vs. $2.60 a share expected, according to Refinitiv.\nRevenue: $19.3 billion, vs. $18.8 billion expected\n\n“Just like the banks that reported yesterday, Citi’s got a lot of strength on the investment banking side, but traditional consumer banking was a lot less impressive,” he said. “If I had to rank this quarter, you know what, I’d put it right below JP Morgan’s.”\nBank of America\n\nEarnings:86 cents a share, vs. 66 cents a share expected by analysts polled by Refinitiv.\nRevenue: $22.9 billion, vs. $22.1 billion expected.\n\n“It got the worst reaction from the market. I’m going to say that the market’s wrong. It tumbled nearly 3% today. I thought it was insulting,” Cramer said. “There was nothing particularly surprising in the quarter itself. Do not despair. If we get a couple of rate hikes, this is the one to own, and we’re going to get them eventually.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":156,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":348921428,"gmtCreate":1617881838564,"gmtModify":1704704302402,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/348921428","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://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1112389819?lang=&edition=full","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.

Here's What The Data Says","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1159574501","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Social media meme stocks GameStop Corp.(NYSE:GME) and AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc(NYSE:AMC) took ","content":"<p>Social media meme stocks&nbsp;<b>GameStop Corp.</b>(NYSE:GME) and&nbsp;<b>AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc</b>(NYSE:AMC) took a beating this week, with GameStop on track to finish the week down 9% and AMC set to lose 20.9% in Friday afternoon trading.</p>\n<p>DataTrek Research co-founder Nicholas Colas said this week&nbsp;there is an ominous sign the&nbsp;meme stock phenomenon may be dying a slow death.</p>\n<p><b>Retail Trading Boom:</b>DataTrek has been periodically tracking the boom in retail traders triggered during the pandemic in 2020 and 2021 by monitoring U.S. Google search volume for the keywords “invest” and “buy stock.” Colas said these basic search terms are a broad way to gauge marginal retail investor interest in the stock market.</p>\n<p>The image below shows how search volume for those key phrases has changed since the beginning of 2020.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9930646712b9790171cccf12a873f757\" tg-width=\"1199\" tg-height=\"560\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Colas said the search volume data clearly indicates the retail stock trading fad is completely over at this point, a “very bad omen” for AMC and GameStop. In fact, Google search volume is now back down to where it was before the pandemic started in early 2020.</p>\n<p>In addition, search volumes are now down 75% from their peak levels during the initial short squeezes in AMC and GameStop back in January 2021.</p>\n<p>Colas said meme stocks like AMC need new retail stock traders to join in the buying to support their stock prices else they could be headed for more volatility like they have experienced this week.</p>\n<p>“Bubbles need fresh money, or they deflate. Quickly,” Colas wrote. “Every craze needs new adherents (i.e., not just the same crowd) to keep it relevant, and the Google chart shows those are in increasingly short supply.”</p>\n<p><b>PMP Weighs In:</b>Benzinga&nbsp;PreMarket Prep co-host Dennis Dick said&nbsp;a good story can carry a stock a long way, and some stocks can even become so hot that they become temporarily disconnected from the company’s underlying fundamentals.</p>\n<p>“We have seen that in a number of meme stocks this year. Story can drive price in the short run but stocks almost always return back to their fundamental value in the long run,” Dick said.</p>\n<p>The type of disconnect between share price and underlying value that AMC and GameStop have experienced in 2021 is certainly nothing new. Canadian cannabis stock&nbsp;<b>Tilray Inc</b>(NASDAQ:TLRY) experienced a similar disconnect back in 2018 when a retail stock mania sent the stock skyrocketing up to $300. Today, Tilray is trading back down at around $13.90.</p>\n<p>“As the stock price begins to fall, momentum traders who have been chasing the hot story will begin to exit. But if the stock trades at an extreme valuation, there may be very few traders willing to buy.

In fact, Google search volume is now back down to where it was before the pandemic started in early 2020.\nIn addition, search volumes are now down 75% from their peak levels during the initial short squeezes in AMC and GameStop back in January 2021.\nColas said meme stocks like AMC need new retail stock traders to join in the buying to support their stock prices else they could be headed for more volatility like they have experienced this week.\n“Bubbles need fresh money, or they deflate. Quickly,” Colas wrote. “Every craze needs new adherents (i.e., not just the same crowd) to keep it relevant, and the Google chart shows those are in increasingly short supply.”\nPMP Weighs In:Benzinga PreMarket Prep co-host Dennis Dick said a good story can carry a stock a long way, and some stocks can even become so hot that they become temporarily disconnected from the company’s underlying fundamentals.\n“We have seen that in a number of meme stocks this year. Story can drive price in the short run but stocks almost always return back to their fundamental value in the long run,” Dick said.\nThe type of disconnect between share price and underlying value that AMC and GameStop have experienced in 2021 is certainly nothing new. Canadian cannabis stock Tilray Inc(NASDAQ:TLRY) experienced a similar disconnect back in 2018 when a retail stock mania sent the stock skyrocketing up to $300. Today, Tilray is trading back down at around $13.90.\n“As the stock price begins to fall, momentum traders who have been chasing the hot story will begin to exit. But if the stock trades at an extreme valuation, there may be very few traders willing to buy. This is what we are starting to see in many meme stocks today,” Dick said.\nBenzinga's Take:If the story begins to get hot again, the stock prices of overvalued story stocks can always recover once again. But without any underlying fundamentals to support the valuation, these types of stocks need a constant stream of new buyers and an increasingly bullish story to generate fresh enthusiasm.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":501,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184337888,"gmtCreate":1623683818344,"gmtModify":1704208693256,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/184337888","repostId":"1109202972","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":139,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":137424353,"gmtCreate":1622380200172,"gmtModify":1704183661630,"author":{"id":"3560852841944646","authorId":"3560852841944646","name":"Abez","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy","listText":"Buy","text":"Buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/137424353","repostId":"2138488613","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2138488613","pubTimestamp":1622212702,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2138488613?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-28 22:38","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Looks to Create Partnerships in the ‘Alternative Payments Ecosystem’","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2138488613","media":"WWD","summary":"As growth in the alternative payment space, including buy now, pay later, fast payments, cryptocurrency and digital wallets, only continues to expand, Apple is looking for a lead in alternative payments partnerships to join its team.According to a job listing posted earlier this week, the business development manager will work with Apple Pay teams to bring a “deep knowledge of the alternative payments ecosystem” and will be responsible for “developing and executing strategic and tactical plans a","content":"<p>As growth in the alternative payment space, including buy now, pay later, fast payments, cryptocurrency and digital wallets, only continues to expand, Apple is looking for a lead in alternative payments partnerships to join its team.</p><p>According to a job listing posted earlier this week, the business development manager will work with Apple Pay teams to bring a “deep knowledge of the alternative payments ecosystem” and will be responsible for “developing and executing strategic and tactical plans across many organizational partners.”</p><p>The team, states the listing, needs help forming partnership framework and commercial models, defining implementation paradigms, identifying key players and managing relationships with strategic alternative payment partners,” as Apple negotiates partnerships and launches new programs.</p><p>Notably, the listing states that screening potential partners will fall under the new hire’s scope.

All year, the business has been through a rollercoaster of a ride as speculators, aiming to punish hedge funds and other institutional investors for shorting the stock, have sent shares soaring higher only to crash back down again. Right now, shares of the business are higher again, though they are far away from where they were at their peak. In truth, GameStop is not worth anywhere near what it is trading for today. With a market cap of $13.1 billion, the company is trading probably close to 10 times what it is actually worth. Having said that, though,recent financial performance, combined with an excellent but overdue&nbsp;strategy&nbsp;for management, could be starting to change what the company is worth fundamentally. I do still believe that shares deserve to be trading far lower than where they are at today, but if management follows recent developments up with another major stock issuance, the firm might be able to justify some of the upside it has seen since the year began.</p>\n<p><b>Recent developments</b></p>\n<p>The headline development regarding GameStop that investors are likely paying attention to revolves around the company's decision to issue an ATM, or at-the-market, program. Simply put, this is an initiative where the company will opportunistically sell shares on the open market in order to raise capital for itself. The rationale here cannot be overlooked. Pretty much nobody will deny that shares of the video game retailer are tremendously overvalued. However, the fact that shares are trading at such a lofty level can work in management's, and investor’s, favor. Since the demand for shares is so high, management can sell stock in order to raise cash. If enough cash is raised, then the company's valuation, or at least some of it, may very well be justified. In essence, it would become a self-fulfilling prophecy.</p>\n<p>This is a strategy that I alluded to in both of my recent articles on the business. You can read them&nbsp;here&nbsp;and&nbsp;here. Yes, management would be diluting shareholders, but that is a small price to pay for the cash that would come in. With that cash, the company could do anything. Ideally, they would use it to continue transforming the firm and pave its way for the future. There are many avenues GameStop could take in order to create shareholder value as its retail stores continue to close down. In the fourth quarter of last year, for instance, the company saw 34% of its net revenue come from e-commerce activities. Year over year, this figure grew by 175%, and compared favorably to the 12% of sales they accounted for in the fourth quarter of 2019. The company could explore making its own video games. It could also focus on other related activities as well.</p>\n<p>According to the terms of its ATM, the company plans to issue up to 3.5 million shares. At present pricing, this would work out to gross proceeds of $654.3 million. Based on my estimates, net proceeds would come in at around $643.9 million. Management is not, however, blind as to how volatile shares have been. After starting out 2021 at under $20 apiece, shares eventually rose to more than $400. As of April 5th, they are at $186.95. because of this volatility, the company also decided to place a limit of $1 billion worth of gross proceeds that it could take in for now. On a net basis, I estimate this would come out to about $984.4 million. No matter how you stack it, the cash raised would be well worth the 4.8% dilution the company would incur.</p>\n<p>Another, though less advertised, headline that came out on April 5th related to the company's financial performance so far in 2021. For the first nine weeks of the fiscal year, GameStop saw its revenue surge 11% compared to the same period a year earlier. The bulk of this increase came from an 18% increase, year over year, in the sales the company generated in the five weeks ending in early April. This came despite weakness associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. And it comes despite the firm’s store base being 13% smaller this year than it was last year.</p>\n<p>Frankly, this financial performance is phenomenal. Unfortunately, we don't know what the entire picture looks like right now, but it is likely that a good portion of this game is coming from the company's online sales. If management can continue to generate this kind of performance, and if it can raise a significant amount of cash, then the case could be made that shares could be worth more than the $20 apiece I indicated in one of my aforementioned prior articles.</p>\n<p>One critique that I have regarding what GameStop is doing today is that I believe the firm is not being aggressive enough. Very possibly, management used this recent ATM to gauge the appetite of the market and to see how much shares might fall in response to this development. For the day (April 5th), shares dropped only 2.4%. So long as we don't see any significant decline near-term, it would appear that the company has proven an appetite in the market for additional shares. And with a 10-day average volume of nearly 21 million shares traded, the business could exhaust this ATM rather quickly.</p>\n<p>It should be mentioned that GameStop does not need this cash. Based on my estimates, as of the end of last year, the business had $635 million in cash on hand. With debt of around $363 million, this left no net debt, but a net cash balance of $272 million. Rather, this strategy is about cashing in overpriced stock for the guarantee of cash they can fill its coffers. Because of all of the events surrounding this, and especially after seeing the market’s reaction to the initial ATM, I would argue that management needs to be issuing more shares than these. As an example, if the firm were to dilute shareholders by 20%, that would result in 17.5 million shares being sold. Gross proceeds would be nearly $3.3 billion. That probably still would not be enough to justify the company's valuation as it stands today, but it would certainly establish a floor. The more that it dilutes shareholders, at least at elevated prices, the more the retailer can grow into its valuation.</p>\n<p><b>Takeaway</b></p>\n<p>Right now, the situation with GameStop is fascinating. It is a clear and extreme example of an irrational market. As I had stated in prior works, if management does nothing, then shares will eventually come down to earth. But this current step is a great step forward. It shows that management is willing to take that lunge, and it gives shareholders the opportunity to create what I would consider a miracle. Namely, it would revitalize and otherwise slowly unwinding firm. Or at least it would give it the opportunity to. I still maintain that true investors should not touch GameStop with a 50 foot pole.But, for speculators, or if management does issue a great deal more shares, then for anybody, it may not be a horrible prospect.</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>GameStop's Brilliant First Step</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\">\nGameStop's Brilliant First Step\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-07 20:43 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4417948-gamestops-brilliant-first-step><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nGameStop's shares are significantly overvalued at this point in time.\nHowever, management is finally taking advantage of this fact by issuing new shares.\nThis is a great first step that was ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4417948-gamestops-brilliant-first-step\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GME":"游戏驿站"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4417948-gamestops-brilliant-first-step","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1199135554","content_text":"Summary\n\nGameStop's shares are significantly overvalued at this point in time.\nHowever, management is finally taking advantage of this fact by issuing new shares.\nThis is a great first step that was accompanied by strong sales data, but it's not aggressive enough to preserve the firm's value.\n\nPhoto by FinkAvenue/iStock Editorial via Getty Images\nFor better or worse,GameStop (NYSE:GME) never ceases to surprise. All year, the business has been through a rollercoaster of a ride as speculators, aiming to punish hedge funds and other institutional investors for shorting the stock, have sent shares soaring higher only to crash back down again. Right now, shares of the business are higher again, though they are far away from where they were at their peak. In truth, GameStop is not worth anywhere near what it is trading for today. With a market cap of $13.1 billion, the company is trading probably close to 10 times what it is actually worth. Having said that, though,recent financial performance, combined with an excellent but overdue strategy for management, could be starting to change what the company is worth fundamentally. I do still believe that shares deserve to be trading far lower than where they are at today, but if management follows recent developments up with another major stock issuance, the firm might be able to justify some of the upside it has seen since the year began.\nRecent developments\nThe headline development regarding GameStop that investors are likely paying attention to revolves around the company's decision to issue an ATM, or at-the-market, program. Simply put, this is an initiative where the company will opportunistically sell shares on the open market in order to raise capital for itself. The rationale here cannot be overlooked. Pretty much nobody will deny that shares of the video game retailer are tremendously overvalued. However, the fact that shares are trading at such a lofty level can work in management's, and investor’s, favor. Since the demand for shares is so high, management can sell stock in order to raise cash. If enough cash is raised, then the company's valuation, or at least some of it, may very well be justified. In essence, it would become a self-fulfilling prophecy.\nThis is a strategy that I alluded to in both of my recent articles on the business. You can read them here and here. Yes, management would be diluting shareholders, but that is a small price to pay for the cash that would come in. With that cash, the company could do anything. Ideally, they would use it to continue transforming the firm and pave its way for the future. There are many avenues GameStop could take in order to create shareholder value as its retail stores continue to close down. In the fourth quarter of last year, for instance, the company saw 34% of its net revenue come from e-commerce activities. Year over year, this figure grew by 175%, and compared favorably to the 12% of sales they accounted for in the fourth quarter of 2019. The company could explore making its own video games. It could also focus on other related activities as well.\nAccording to the terms of its ATM, the company plans to issue up to 3.5 million shares. At present pricing, this would work out to gross proceeds of $654.3 million. Based on my estimates, net proceeds would come in at around $643.9 million. Management is not, however, blind as to how volatile shares have been. After starting out 2021 at under $20 apiece, shares eventually rose to more than $400. As of April 5th, they are at $186.95. because of this volatility, the company also decided to place a limit of $1 billion worth of gross proceeds that it could take in for now. On a net basis, I estimate this would come out to about $984.4 million. No matter how you stack it, the cash raised would be well worth the 4.8% dilution the company would incur.\nAnother, though less advertised, headline that came out on April 5th related to the company's financial performance so far in 2021. For the first nine weeks of the fiscal year, GameStop saw its revenue surge 11% compared to the same period a year earlier. The bulk of this increase came from an 18% increase, year over year, in the sales the company generated in the five weeks ending in early April. This came despite weakness associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. And it comes despite the firm’s store base being 13% smaller this year than it was last year.\nFrankly, this financial performance is phenomenal. Unfortunately, we don't know what the entire picture looks like right now, but it is likely that a good portion of this game is coming from the company's online sales. If management can continue to generate this kind of performance, and if it can raise a significant amount of cash, then the case could be made that shares could be worth more than the $20 apiece I indicated in one of my aforementioned prior articles.\nOne critique that I have regarding what GameStop is doing today is that I believe the firm is not being aggressive enough. Very possibly, management used this recent ATM to gauge the appetite of the market and to see how much shares might fall in response to this development. For the day (April 5th), shares dropped only 2.4%. So long as we don't see any significant decline near-term, it would appear that the company has proven an appetite in the market for additional shares. And with a 10-day average volume of nearly 21 million shares traded, the business could exhaust this ATM rather quickly.\nIt should be mentioned that GameStop does not need this cash. Based on my estimates, as of the end of last year, the business had $635 million in cash on hand. With debt of around $363 million, this left no net debt, but a net cash balance of $272 million.
