earnings and revenue. However, shares went south as much as 5% in extended trading due to guidance of slowing revenue growth.</p>\n<p>Figure-wise, adjusted earnings amounted to $3.61 per share, exceeding $3.03 per share expected by Refinitiv-gathered analysts. Revenue grew by 56% YoY to $29.08 billion, also exceeding $27.89 billion, accelerating from a 48% increase in the prior quarter. It is Facebook's fastest growth since 2016.</p>\n<p>In the first financial period to really reflect a return to quasi-economic normalcy after a very online pandemic year, Facebook met user growth expectations. At the end of March, Facebook boasted 2.85 billion monthly active users across its network of apps. At the end of its second quarter, Facebook reported 2.9 billion monthly active users, roughly what was expected.</p>\n<p>In spite of a strong quarter, Facebook is warning of change ahead — namely impacts to its massive ad business, which generated $28.5 billion out of the company’s $29 billion this quarter. The company specifically named privacy-focused updates to Apple’s mobile operating system as a threat to its business.</p>\n<p>“We continue to expect increased ad targeting headwinds in 2021 from regulatory and platform changes, notably the recent iOS updates, which we expect to have a greater impact in the third quarter compared to the second quarter,” the company stated its investor report outlook.</p>\n<h4>Q2 user growth disappoints</h4>\n<p>Let's start with the key highlights from Q2 that turned investor sentiment south. For the past several quarters, now, Facebook has been dealing with a slowdown in user growth in the post-pandemic era. That trend played out even more strongly in Q2. Take a look at the DAU and MAU charts below:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/693a825137c8cd10e400eec68b3e7bf9\" tg-width=\"554\" tg-height=\"370\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/216eccd4ce8127278f911f6310913ecd\" tg-width=\"554\" tg-height=\"372\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>A summary of the above:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>DAUs at 1.908 billion, growing 1.6% sequentially and 6.9% y/y</li>\n <li>MAUs at 2.895 billion, growing 1.5% sequentially and 7.2% y/y</li>\n</ul>\n<p>We note that the y/y growth rates in MAUs were significantly compressed from Q1's pace of 9.6% y/y MAU growth.</p>\n<p>These trends are telling us something we already knew instinctively: Facebook benefited tremendously in 2020 due to the pandemic. DAUs, in particular, and average time spent on the app per user (not a metric that Facebook reports, but something that drives ARPU) jolted upward as users had little alternatives in the lockdown world to compete with digital entertainment and distraction.</p>\n<p>But picking apart at the geo-levels trends highlights additional concerns. Facebook has simply stopped growing in the U.S. and Canada. Its DAU and MAU counts in its home region have frozen at 185 million and 259 million, respectively. A North America user generates ~5x the ARPU of the worldwide index of Facebook users - so this slowdown will in particular hurt future growth.</p>\n<p>It's an even worse story in Europe, where DAU counts declined by 2 million sequentially and MAU counts declined by 3 million. Europe has been a little laxer in reopenings than the U.S., with many tourist hotspots reopening (especially for inter-EU travel), and we saw the effects of a more opened Europe summer season on Facebook's Q2 user counts in the region (potentially a harbinger of what will happen in the U.S. when it reopens more broadly). Seeing as Europe is Facebook's second-most lucrative region after North America, this is another concern.</p>\n<p>In Q2, Facebook generated 56% y/y revenue growth to $29.08 billion, beating Wall Street's expectations of $27.89 billion (+49% y/y) by a respectable seven-point margin. Yet the majority of this revenue growth was driven by ARPU growth, and in particular ad pricing. As investors who were active in tech stocks last year will recall, internet giants reported particular softness in ad pricing last year (Q2 and Q3 especially) as consumer brands pulled back on their marketing spend to conserve cash. This year, as pent-up consumer demand is racing to buy everything from cars to Peloton ad spend is up furiously. Globally, Facebook's ARPU is up 43%5 y/y to $10.12; in the U.S., ARPU is up an even stronger 45% y/y to $53.01:</p>\n<p>Yet this to be a temporary growth driver, as ad pricing can't continue expanding indefinitely. We note as well that declining amounts of time spent in the Facebook family of apps will also cause downward pressure on ARPU.</p>\n<p>Over the long run, Facebook must continue growing its core U.S. user base or start getting its Asia-Pacific and Rest of World users to a higher ARPU. Yet given that, for example, Asia users' $4.16 ARPU is already less than a tenth of the U.S. and also growing slower at 39% y/y in Q2, this may take a long time to equalize (if it ever will at all).</p>\n<h4>Metaverse</h4>\n<p>Mark Zuckerberg spent much of the company's earnings call revealing his vision for the company's transformation from social media to a metaverse: a digital world that Facebook is investing billions of dollars to create.</p>\n<p>The metaverse was first coined in the 1992 science fiction novel \"Snow Crash\" by Neal Stephenson. The term represents a meeting of the physical world with augmented and virtual reality.</p>\n<p>Zuckerberg called the metaverse the “next generation of the internet and next chapter for us as a company,” one that he said will create “entirely new experiences and economic opportunities.”</p>\n<p>He believes the metaverse will be the successor to the mobile internet, and creating this product group is the next step in Facebook's journey. He describes it as \"an embodied internet where instead of just viewing content -- you are in it.\" Facebook has invested heavily in virtual reality, spending $2 billion on acquiring Oculus, which develops its VR products and continues spending billions each year in R&amp;D.</p>\n<p>Zuckerberg thinks that many focus on the gaming side of things for the metaverse and highlights the growing entertainment sector of the market.

Yet the majority of this revenue growth was driven by ARPU growth, and in particular ad pricing. As investors who were active in tech stocks last year will recall, internet giants reported particular softness in ad pricing last year (Q2 and Q3 especially) as consumer brands pulled back on their marketing spend to conserve cash. This year, as pent-up consumer demand is racing to buy everything from cars to Peloton ad spend is up furiously. Globally, Facebook's ARPU is up 43%5 y/y to $10.12; in the U.S., ARPU is up an even stronger 45% y/y to $53.01:\nYet this to be a temporary growth driver, as ad pricing can't continue expanding indefinitely. We note as well that declining amounts of time spent in the Facebook family of apps will also cause downward pressure on ARPU.\nOver the long run, Facebook must continue growing its core U.S. user base or start getting its Asia-Pacific and Rest of World users to a higher ARPU. Yet given that, for example, Asia users' $4.16 ARPU is already less than a tenth of the U.S. and also growing slower at 39% y/y in Q2, this may take a long time to equalize (if it ever will at all).\nMetaverse\nMark Zuckerberg spent much of the company's earnings call revealing his vision for the company's transformation from social media to a metaverse: a digital world that Facebook is investing billions of dollars to create.\nThe metaverse was first coined in the 1992 science fiction novel \"Snow Crash\" by Neal Stephenson. The term represents a meeting of the physical world with augmented and virtual reality.\nZuckerberg called the metaverse the “next generation of the internet and next chapter for us as a company,” one that he said will create “entirely new experiences and economic opportunities.”\nHe believes the metaverse will be the successor to the mobile internet, and creating this product group is the next step in Facebook's journey. He describes it as \"an embodied internet where instead of just viewing content -- you are in it.\" Facebook has invested heavily in virtual reality, spending $2 billion on acquiring Oculus, which develops its VR products and continues spending billions each year in R&D.\nZuckerberg thinks that many focus on the gaming side of things for the metaverse and highlights the growing entertainment sector of the market. Ultimately, Zuckerberg sees the metaverse as a hybrid of existing social platforms we have today — with the difference being the environment.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":639,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":807075387,"gmtCreate":1627993385249,"gmtModify":1703499242832,"author":{"id":"3563236857658111","authorId":"3563236857658111","name":"Moola","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/b16c15008b428ee5865485305ad01cec","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3563236857658111","authorIdStr":"3563236857658111"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yo and comment&nbsp;","listText":"Yo and comment&nbsp;","text":"Yo and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/807075387","repostId":"1173484715","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1173484715","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1627985793,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1173484715?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-03 18:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"A hawkish Bullard sees more volatile economic \"regime\" emerging in U.S.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1173484715","media":"Reuters","summary":"WASHINGTON, Aug 3 (Reuters) - The coronavirus pandemic may have pushed the United States into a vola","content":"<p>WASHINGTON, Aug 3 (Reuters) - The coronavirus pandemic may have pushed the United States into a volatile era of stronger growth and better productivity, but higher interest rates and faster inflation as well, St. Louis Federal Reserve president James Bullard said, elaborating on why he thinks the U.S. central bank should end its crisis-era policies.</p>\n<p>Bullard, who five years ago said he viewed the United States as mired in an epoch of low growth, low productivity and low inflation, said he is beginning to think a new “regime” may have arrived where the Fed will have to cope with faster change and more frequent shocks.</p>\n<p>For more than a decade before the pandemic “economic growth was slow and not very volatile and inflation in tandem was slow and not very volatile,” Bullard said in an interview with Reuters on Monday. “This environment is a very different one where you have upset the global equilibrium...The reverberations will continue, and you will have a lot more volatility than you are used to.”</p>\n<p>On the plus side that could mean a run of productivity- enhancing developments that keep U.S. growth and wages rising fast; the risk is higher inflation that could upend the Fed’s current expectation that price pressures will ease on their own and allow for continued loose monetary policy.</p>\n<p>“We will have long, lingering effects as the rest of the world recovers.

For the past several quarters, now, Facebook has been dealing with a slowdown in user growth in the post-pandemic era. That trend played out even more strongly in Q2. Take a look at the DAU and MAU charts below:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/693a825137c8cd10e400eec68b3e7bf9\" tg-width=\"554\" tg-height=\"370\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/216eccd4ce8127278f911f6310913ecd\" tg-width=\"554\" tg-height=\"372\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>A summary of the above:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>DAUs at 1.908 billion, growing 1.6% sequentially and 6.9% y/y</li>\n <li>MAUs at 2.895 billion, growing 1.5% sequentially and 7.2% y/y</li>\n</ul>\n<p>We note that the y/y growth rates in MAUs were significantly compressed from Q1's pace of 9.6% y/y MAU growth.</p>\n<p>These trends are telling us something we already knew instinctively: Facebook benefited tremendously in 2020 due to the pandemic. DAUs, in particular, and average time spent on the app per user (not a metric that Facebook reports, but something that drives ARPU) jolted upward as users had little alternatives in the lockdown world to compete with digital entertainment and distraction.</p>\n<p>But picking apart at the geo-levels trends highlights additional concerns. Facebook has simply stopped growing in the U.S. and Canada. Its DAU and MAU counts in its home region have frozen at 185 million and 259 million, respectively. A North America user generates ~5x the ARPU of the worldwide index of Facebook users - so this slowdown will in particular hurt future growth.</p>\n<p>It's an even worse story in Europe, where DAU counts declined by 2 million sequentially and MAU counts declined by 3 million. Europe has been a little laxer in reopenings than the U.S., with many tourist hotspots reopening (especially for inter-EU travel), and we saw the effects of a more opened Europe summer season on Facebook's Q2 user counts in the region (potentially a harbinger of what will happen in the U.S. when it reopens more broadly).

Yet the majority of this revenue growth was driven by ARPU growth, and in particular ad pricing. As investors who were active in tech stocks last year will recall, internet giants reported particular softness in ad pricing last year (Q2 and Q3 especially) as consumer brands pulled back on their marketing spend to conserve cash. This year, as pent-up consumer demand is racing to buy everything from cars to Peloton ad spend is up furiously. Globally, Facebook's ARPU is up 43%5 y/y to $10.12; in the U.S., ARPU is up an even stronger 45% y/y to $53.01:</p>\n<p>Yet this to be a temporary growth driver, as ad pricing can't continue expanding indefinitely.

You have shortages and bottlenecks everywhere. You have Europe likely to grow more quickly in coming quarters,” Bullard said. “You have industries still adjusting to the post-pandemic world - many things happening, and at a pace we are not used to.”</p>\n<p>In that setting “monetary policy needs to be more nimble.”</p>\n<p>CHANGING IN FUNDAMENTAL WAYS</p>\n<p>His comments come with a specific policy recommendation: that the Fed begin trimming its $120 billion in monthly asset purchases soon, cut them to zero by early next year, and be ready to raise interest rates if inflation does threaten to remain too high for too long. After missing its 2% target during a decade of weak inflation, the Fed wanted to encourage a period of faster price increases, but now may be at risk of getting too much of what it asked.</p>\n<p>But his views speak to a deeper prospect: That the economy may have changed in fundamental ways over the past 18 months, leaving the Fed looking at a different landscape than when it established a new framework just about one year ago.</p>\n<p>That framework envisions giving more weight to job growth, and allowing inflation to run above 2% for a time to let employment expand.</p>\n<p>With the economy growing faster and inflation running higher than expected, outside analysts have noted that the approach involves navigating tricky terrain - allowing unemployment to dip below what’s considered a sustainable rate before it rises back to its “natural” level.</p>\n<p>“Cooling an overheated labor market has rarely ended without recession,” JPMorgan economist Michael Feroli wrote in mid-July, concluding that while the Fed’s new framework wasn’t destined to fail, it did in his view increase the likelihood of a “hard landing” when the central bank does have to raise interest rates. The policy rate is currently near zero, and Fed officials at the median don’t see it changing until some time in 2023.</p>\n<p>Bullard said his call for faster action on ending bond purchases is to lower that likelihood, making smaller, earlier steps rather than risking the need to “scramble” later on.</p>\n<p>It’s possible the United States and world economies may not have changed all that much. While a productivity model Bullard watches does show improvement, it did so also after the end of the last recession before fading.</p>\n<p>Yet current inflation is well over the Fed’s target, and at levels which prior Fed chairs like Alan Greenspan “would have...immediately tried to quash,” Bullard said. “We are not being that preemptive. Our models say this will settle down, but in the meantime it will be pretty volatile...What I want to be prepared for and get the committee prepared for is the risk that this is an unpredictable situation.”</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

You have shortages and bottlenecks everywhere. You have Europe likely to grow more quickly in coming quarters,” Bullard said. “You have industries still adjusting to the post-pandemic world - many things happening, and at a pace we are not used to.”\nIn that setting “monetary policy needs to be more nimble.”\nCHANGING IN FUNDAMENTAL WAYS\nHis comments come with a specific policy recommendation: that the Fed begin trimming its $120 billion in monthly asset purchases soon, cut them to zero by early next year, and be ready to raise interest rates if inflation does threaten to remain too high for too long. After missing its 2% target during a decade of weak inflation, the Fed wanted to encourage a period of faster price increases, but now may be at risk of getting too much of what it asked.\nBut his views speak to a deeper prospect: That the economy may have changed in fundamental ways over the past 18 months, leaving the Fed looking at a different landscape than when it established a new framework just about one year ago.\nThat framework envisions giving more weight to job growth, and allowing inflation to run above 2% for a time to let employment expand.\nWith the economy growing faster and inflation running higher than expected, outside analysts have noted that the approach involves navigating tricky terrain - allowing unemployment to dip below what’s considered a sustainable rate before it rises back to its “natural” level.\n“Cooling an overheated labor market has rarely ended without recession,” JPMorgan economist Michael Feroli wrote in mid-July, concluding that while the Fed’s new framework wasn’t destined to fail, it did in his view increase the likelihood of a “hard landing” when the central bank does have to raise interest rates.
