The following two charts provide a quick summary of their key valuation and profitability metrics. I think it is reasonable to benchmark BABA against Amazon (AMZN) given that they share more similarities than differences in their business fundamentals. But it is hard to find a counterpart for Tencent: it's kind of a combination of all the FAAMG businesses.</p><p>Regardless of the differences in their business details, the overall picture from these two charts is so overwhelming. With an FY1 PE in the range of 11x to 14.5x, both BABA and TCEHY are so cheaply valued both in absolute terms and relative terms compared to peers like AMZN or the overall market. Yet, their profitability rivals the best of the stocks in the market. As to be elaborated on later, their ROCE (return on capital employed) is more than 2x higher than the average of the FAAMG group (around 55%), and their R&D yield is almost 2x higher than the FAAMG group.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3e16e134e2eae031060c9222fce9fc68\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"201\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8d144e0b05afcf9211fa28428ef6c0aa\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"171\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Seeking Alpha data</p><p>Based on our discussions with SA readers and other investors lately, the key issue where many bulls and bears disagree is simply this: can value investing work in China? It is a fair and completely logical question. The fact that we can admit they are value stocks does not mean they are good investments, because value investing may not work in China.</p><p>Besides being logical, the question is also well supported by facts. And the chart below provides an example. The chart compares the price returns, i.e. with dividends excluded, from the SSE Composite Index (000001.SS) in the past 5 years against those from the S&P 500. As seen, the SSE Composite Index lost a total of 9.09% while the S&P 500 gained a total of 47.62%. Changing the timeframe does not seem to change the picture too much. For example, when we extend the timeframe to the past 10 years, the SSE Composite Index gained a total of 42.4% - which seems like good news. But the S&P 500 gained more than 169%. So the relative lag is even wider.</p><p>In the remainder of this article, I will provide my two cents on this debate. Also, my opinion is that I donât see any reason why value investing should not work in China. In my mind, the idea of paying less to buy more is so universal and timeless that I do not see why it would stop working, as to be elaborated on next.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5dfb01199cbf518e311fd290945e8272\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"271\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Yahoo data</p><h2>Historical perspective</h2><p>First, let me provide a piece of counter-evidence to the chart above by going back further in history. The chart below was taken from a lecture Li Lu gave in 2015. Readers unfamiliar with Li Lu can take a look at our recent article and I highly encourage you to read the transcript of this lecture in its entirety.</p><p>The chart compares the performance of China's stock markets versus the U.S. between 1992 and 2015. As seen, the Shanghai Stock Exchange indexes have grown 1406% during this time at an IRR of 12.1%. And the Shenzhen indexes have grown even more, 1864%, during this time at an IRR of 13.4%. Both growths have far outpaced all the major U.S. indexes. To wit, the Shanghai Stock Exchange indexesâ 1406% growth outpaced the S&P 500 by 2.12x, the DOW Jones by 1.73x, and the NASDAQ 100 index by 1.63x.</p><p>It is true that in the past decade, returns from the China stock markets have lagged the U.S. substantially. But bear in mind that A) the U.S. stock markets have suffered its âlost decadesâ too multiple times in the past; and B) like all performance comparisons, the conclusion often changes when the timeframe changes.</p><p>Next, we will see if history can offer some insights into the future.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3a6cba38f13bf629ff8f91fb95cc1159\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"189\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Li Lu 2015 lecture</p><h2>Which direction would China stocks go next?</h2><p>After the above macro-level view, now letâs descend and look at the specific stocks. The top panel of the following chart shows the best-performing U.S. stocks since their IPO. And you see all the familiar names on this list. And you cannot help but notice that this list is dominated by âold economyâ stocks such as insurance conglomerates such as Berkshire (BRK.A) (BRK.B) and Aflac (AFL), chain retailers such as Home Depot (HD) and Walmart (WMT), and consumer staples like V.F. Corp. (VFC) and Altria (MO). The picture is very similar if you make a list of the best-performing China stocks since their IPO on the Shanghai or Shenzhen stock exchanges. The list is also dominated by âold economyâ stocks like China Vanke (OTCPK:CHVKF) (OTCPK:CHVKY) (real estate), Gree Electronics (home appliances), Yunnan Biaoyao Medicinal (Healthcare), Kweichow Moutai (liquor), et al.</p><p>The bottom panel of the following chart shows the best-performing stocks by IRR. And now you see the pictures change in two dramatic ways. First, the list is dominated by ânew economyâ stocks that went IPO primarily around ~2000 such as Baidu (BIDU), Netflix (NFLX), Amazon (AMZN), Ctrip (TCOM), and Salesforce (CRM). And secondly, you see that quite a few Chinese companies listed in the U.S. stock market have made the top 10 list such as Baidu and Ctrip.</p><p>Such a historical perspective leads me to the following recognition about BABA and TCEHY: what has happened to them so far is a hiccup along the way an unstoppable secular shift from the old economy to the new economy. The shift is equally unstoppable in both the U.S. and China. And I wonât be surprised to see BABA and TCEHY appearing on the list when we update it 10 years from now.</p><p>Next, I will provide a few business specifics about BABA and TCEHY to support my above view.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1dceadf8460e915d7c19021a6b1655c7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"489\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Li Lu 2015 lecture</p><h2>Both R&D aggressively and enjoy superb yield</h2><p><i>As mentioned in our earlier writings, we do not invest in a given tech stock because we have high confidence in a certain product that they are developing in the pipeline. Instead, we are more focused on A) the recurring resources available to fund new R&D efforts sustainably, and B) the overall efficiency of the R&D PROCESS. </i></p><p>So letâs first see how well and sustainably BABA and TCEHY can fund their new R&D efforts. The short answer is: extremely well. The next chart shows the R&D expenses of BABA and TCEHY over the past decade. As seen, both have been consistently investing heavily in R&D. BABA spends on average 8.9% of its total sales on R&D efforts, and TCEHY on average 8.7%. Both levels are consistent with the average of other leaders in the tech space. For example, in the FAAMG group, AMZN spends about 10% of total revenues on its R&D, MSFT about 13%, and AAPL about 6.1%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c27d25c102407cdea27576b5ef4aa016\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"346\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data</p><p>Then the next question is, how effective is their R&Dâs process? The next chart shows a variation of Buffettâs $1 test applied to R&D expenses for BABA and TCEHY. The analysis method is detailed in our earlier writings and in summary:</p><ul><li><i>The purpose of any corporate R&D is obviously to generate profit. Therefore, this analysis quantifies the yield by taking the ratio between profit and R&D expenditures. We used the operating cash flow as the measure for profit. </i></li><li><i>Also, most R&D investments do not produce any result in the same year. They typically have a lifetime of a few years. Therefore, this analysis assumes a 3-year average investment cycle for R&D. And as a result, we used the 3-year moving average of operating cash flow to represent this 3-year cycle. </i></li></ul><p>As you can see, the R&D yield for both has been remarkably consistent and also superb. In BABAâs case, its R&D yield has been steady around an average of $3.31 in recent years. TCEHYâs R&D yield of $3.82 is even higher than BABA's. To put things under perspective, letâs compare such levels of R&D yield again to the overachieving FAAMG group, which boasts an average R&D yield of around $2 to $2.5 in recent years. And in particular, BABAâs closest peer in the group, AMZN generates a yield of around $0.9 only.</p><p>Next, we will examine their profitability to fuel their R&D efforts sustainably and also project their growth rates.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ff7c5712303389c002f61b3d37a464f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"387\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data</p><h2>Both enjoy superior profitability too</h2><p>As explained in our earlier writings, to us, the most important profitability measure is ROCE (return on capital employed) because:</p><blockquote><i>ROCE considers the return of capital ACTUALLY employed and therefore provides insight into how much additional capital a business needs to invest in order to earn a given extra amount of income â a key to estimating the long-term growth rate. Because when we think as long-term business owners, the growth rate is âsimplyâ the product of ROCE and reinvestment rate, i.e., </i></blockquote><blockquote><i>Long-Term Growth Rate = ROCE * Reinvestment Rate </i></blockquote><blockquote><i>In this analysis, I consider the following items capital actually employed A) Working capital (including payables, receivables, inventory), B) Gross Property, Plant, and Equipment, and C) Research and development expenses are also capitalized. </i></blockquote><p>As you can see from the chart below, both BABA and TCEHYâs ROCE were literally off the chart till about 2019. They both enjoyed a ROCE on average exceeding 150% before 2019. To put things into perspective, AMZNâs ROCE is only about 29% in recent years. And the FAAMG groupâs average ROCE has been about 55% in recent years. From this perspective, this is no wonder why the Chinese government had to tighten regulations and curb their profitability in recent years. And as you can see, their profitability did suffer and declined since then. But even after the decline caused by regulations and tax rate changes, their current ROCE is still above 89% for BABA and about 154% for TCEHY.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d8502a3508458929a2472fd77abc865f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"368\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data</p><h2>Growth prospects and final verdict</h2><p>As such, looking forward, I see both as well-poised to sustainably fund their innovation via their organic profits. Furthermore, as mentioned above, I also see both best poised to benefit from the secular trend of e-commerce and digitalization not only in China but also globally. Currently, 80% of the commerce is still currently conducted offline and eCommerce only accounts for a total of 20% of the total. The remainder of the digital revolution will be unevenly distributed geographically and the Asia-Pacific region will be the epicenter. And leaders like BABA and TCEHY will be the best positioned to benefit as argued in my earlier article:</p><blockquote><i>⌠the remaining shift will be unevenly distributed and the Asian-Pacific region will be the center of the momentum. As shown in the chart above, world retail e-commerce sales are expected to exceed $7.3 trillion by 2025. The twist is that the Asia-Pacific region will be where most of the growth will be. By 2023, the Western continents will contribute 16% of the total B2B e-commerce volume, while the remaining 84% would come from the non-Western world. And leaders like BABA and TCEHY are best poised to benefit with their scale and reach, government support, cultural compatibility with other Asian-Pacific countries, and also geographic proximity.</i></blockquote><p>Finally, the following table summarizes all the key metrics discussed above. As mentioned early on, my thesis is that I donât see why value investing would stop working here given the megatrend, their profitability, and their current valuation. To wit, their valuation is so low that they both provide a healthy ownerâs earning yield (âOEYâ): 5.6% for BABA and 6.3% for TCEHY at their current prices. And note here that I'm using the free cash flow taken from Seeking Alpha as shown in the second chart below to approximate their ownersâ earnings. As such, this is a conservative estimate for their OEY, because the true owners' earnings will be free cash flow plus the growth part of their CAPEX expenses.</p><p>For growth, BABA is projected to grow at 8.9% assuming a reinvestment rate of 10% and its current ROCE of 89% (Perpetual growth rate = 89% ROCE * 10% reinvestment rate = 8.9%). And for TCEHY, the growth rate would be even higher, 15.4%, if we assume the same 10% reinvestment rate because of its higher ROCE of 154% (Perpetual growth rate = 154% ROCE * 10% reinvestment rate = 15.4%).</p><p>All told, BABA is projected to provide a 14.5% total return per year (5.6% OEY plus 8.9% growth) and TCEHY 21.7% (6.3% OEY plus 15.4% growth).</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41f6ca4e324250c4ff76b93a032fb491\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"353\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/79b1dde89c5e7977567245d5f41c4294\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"179\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Source: Seeking Alpha data</p><h2>Risks and final thoughts</h2><p>There are a couple of risks worth mentioning, especially in the near term. Firstly, their ROCE might shrink from the current levels either due to the slowdown of the overall Chinese economy or due to further regulatory changes. Secondly, they may not always be able to find high-margin and high-growth areas to reinvest. The above projections were made under the assumption that A) they always find new opportunities with returns matching their current ROCE, and B) the opportunities are sizable enough to absorb a 10% reinvestment rate. Although under current conditions, even if the growth rates are cut by half due to a combination of A and B, their total annual returns would still be in the double digits.</p><p>To conclude, a key disagreement between many bulls and bears surrounding BABA and TCEHY is not about their valuation or profitability. The key disagreement is simply whether value investing can work in China or not. The question is not only logical but also well supported by recent facts (say the performance of the China stock market, BABA stock prices, and TCEHY prices in the past 5 or 10 years). However, by widening the perspective, my view is that what happened to BABA and TCEHY recently is a hiccup along the way of an unstoppable secular shift from the old economy to the new economy.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Alibaba And Tencent: Can Value Investing Work In China?</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\">\nAlibaba And Tencent: Can Value Investing Work In China?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-03 21:10 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4544273-alibaba-tencent-value-investing-china><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>ThesisThere seems to be little disagreement among bulls and bears that both Alibaba Group (NYSE: BABA) and Tencent Holdings (OTCPK: TCEHY) are firmly in value territory.

The following two charts provide a quick summary of their key valuation and profitability metrics. I think it is reasonable to benchmark BABA against Amazon (AMZN) given that they share more similarities than differences in their business fundamentals. But it is hard to find a counterpart for Tencent: it's kind of a combination of all the FAAMG businesses.Regardless of the differences in their business details, the overall picture from these two charts is so overwhelming. With an FY1 PE in the range of 11x to 14.5x, both BABA and TCEHY are so cheaply valued both in absolute terms and relative terms compared to peers like AMZN or the overall market. Yet, their profitability rivals the best of the stocks in the market. As to be elaborated on later, their ROCE (return on capital employed) is more than 2x higher than the average of the FAAMG group (around 55%), and their R&D yield is almost 2x higher than the FAAMG group.Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha dataSource: Seeking Alpha dataBased on our discussions with SA readers and other investors lately, the key issue where many bulls and bears disagree is simply this: can value investing work in China? It is a fair and completely logical question. The fact that we can admit they are value stocks does not mean they are good investments, because value investing may not work in China.Besides being logical, the question is also well supported by facts. And the chart below provides an example. The chart compares the price returns, i.e. with dividends excluded, from the SSE Composite Index (000001.SS) in the past 5 years against those from the S&P 500. As seen, the SSE Composite Index lost a total of 9.09% while the S&P 500 gained a total of 47.62%. Changing the timeframe does not seem to change the picture too much. For example, when we extend the timeframe to the past 10 years, the SSE Composite Index gained a total of 42.4% - which seems like good news. But the S&P 500 gained more than 169%. So the relative lag is even wider.In the remainder of this article, I will provide my two cents on this debate. Also, my opinion is that I donât see any reason why value investing should not work in China. In my mind, the idea of paying less to buy more is so universal and timeless that I do not see why it would stop working, as to be elaborated on next.Source: Yahoo dataHistorical perspectiveFirst, let me provide a piece of counter-evidence to the chart above by going back further in history. The chart below was taken from a lecture Li Lu gave in 2015. Readers unfamiliar with Li Lu can take a look at our recent article and I highly encourage you to read the transcript of this lecture in its entirety.The chart compares the performance of China's stock markets versus the U.S. between 1992 and 2015. As seen, the Shanghai Stock Exchange indexes have grown 1406% during this time at an IRR of 12.1%. And the Shenzhen indexes have grown even more, 1864%, during this time at an IRR of 13.4%. Both growths have far outpaced all the major U.S. indexes. To wit, the Shanghai Stock Exchange indexesâ 1406% growth outpaced the S&P 500 by 2.12x, the DOW Jones by 1.73x, and the NASDAQ 100 index by 1.63x.It is true that in the past decade, returns from the China stock markets have lagged the U.S. substantially. But bear in mind that A) the U.S. stock markets have suffered its âlost decadesâ too multiple times in the past; and B) like all performance comparisons, the conclusion often changes when the timeframe changes.Next, we will see if history can offer some insights into the future.Source: Li Lu 2015 lectureWhich direction would China stocks go next?After the above macro-level view, now letâs descend and look at the specific stocks. The top panel of the following chart shows the best-performing U.S. stocks since their IPO. And you see all the familiar names on this list. And you cannot help but notice that this list is dominated by âold economyâ stocks such as insurance conglomerates such as Berkshire (BRK.A) (BRK.B) and Aflac (AFL), chain retailers such as Home Depot (HD) and Walmart (WMT), and consumer staples like V.F. Corp. (VFC) and Altria (MO). The picture is very similar if you make a list of the best-performing China stocks since their IPO on the Shanghai or Shenzhen stock exchanges. The list is also dominated by âold economyâ stocks like China Vanke (OTCPK:CHVKF) (OTCPK:CHVKY) (real estate), Gree Electronics (home appliances), Yunnan Biaoyao Medicinal (Healthcare), Kweichow Moutai (liquor), et al.The bottom panel of the following chart shows the best-performing stocks by IRR. And now you see the pictures change in two dramatic ways. First, the list is dominated by ânew economyâ stocks that went IPO primarily around ~2000 such as Baidu (BIDU), Netflix (NFLX), Amazon (AMZN), Ctrip (TCOM), and Salesforce (CRM). And secondly, you see that quite a few Chinese companies listed in the U.S. stock market have made the top 10 list such as Baidu and Ctrip.Such a historical perspective leads me to the following recognition about BABA and TCEHY: what has happened to them so far is a hiccup along the way an unstoppable secular shift from the old economy to the new economy. The shift is equally unstoppable in both the U.S. and China. And I wonât be surprised to see BABA and TCEHY appearing on the list when we update it 10 years from now.Next, I will provide a few business specifics about BABA and TCEHY to support my above view.Source: Li Lu 2015 lectureBoth R&D aggressively and enjoy superb yieldAs mentioned in our earlier writings, we do not invest in a given tech stock because we have high confidence in a certain product that they are developing in the pipeline. Instead, we are more focused on A) the recurring resources available to fund new R&D efforts sustainably, and B) the overall efficiency of the R&D PROCESS. So letâs first see how well and sustainably BABA and TCEHY can fund their new R&D efforts. The short answer is: extremely well. The next chart shows the R&D expenses of BABA and TCEHY over the past decade. As seen, both have been consistently investing heavily in R&D. BABA spends on average 8.9% of its total sales on R&D efforts, and TCEHY on average 8.7%. Both levels are consistent with the average of other leaders in the tech space. For example, in the FAAMG group, AMZN spends about 10% of total revenues on its R&D, MSFT about 13%, and AAPL about 6.1%.Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha dataThen the next question is, how effective is their R&Dâs process? The next chart shows a variation of Buffettâs $1 test applied to R&D expenses for BABA and TCEHY. The analysis method is detailed in our earlier writings and in summary:The purpose of any corporate R&D is obviously to generate profit. Therefore, this analysis quantifies the yield by taking the ratio between profit and R&D expenditures. We used the operating cash flow as the measure for profit. Also, most R&D investments do not produce any result in the same year. They typically have a lifetime of a few years. Therefore, this analysis assumes a 3-year average investment cycle for R&D. And as a result, we used the 3-year moving average of operating cash flow to represent this 3-year cycle. As you can see, the R&D yield for both has been remarkably consistent and also superb. In BABAâs case, its R&D yield has been steady around an average of $3.31 in recent years. TCEHYâs R&D yield of $3.82 is even higher than BABA's. To put things under perspective, letâs compare such levels of R&D yield again to the overachieving FAAMG group, which boasts an average R&D yield of around $2 to $2.5 in recent years. And in particular, BABAâs closest peer in the group, AMZN generates a yield of around $0.9 only.Next, we will examine their profitability to fuel their R&D efforts sustainably and also project their growth rates.Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha dataBoth enjoy superior profitability tooAs explained in our earlier writings, to us, the most important profitability measure is ROCE (return on capital employed) because:ROCE considers the return of capital ACTUALLY employed and therefore provides insight into how much additional capital a business needs to invest in order to earn a given extra amount of income â a key to estimating the long-term growth rate. Because when we think as long-term business owners, the growth rate is âsimplyâ the product of ROCE and reinvestment rate, i.e., Long-Term Growth Rate = ROCE * Reinvestment Rate In this analysis, I consider the following items capital actually employed A) Working capital (including payables, receivables, inventory), B) Gross Property, Plant, and Equipment, and C) Research and development expenses are also capitalized. As you can see from the chart below, both BABA and TCEHYâs ROCE were literally off the chart till about 2019. They both enjoyed a ROCE on average exceeding 150% before 2019. To put things into perspective, AMZNâs ROCE is only about 29% in recent years. And the FAAMG groupâs average ROCE has been about 55% in recent years. From this perspective, this is no wonder why the Chinese government had to tighten regulations and curb their profitability in recent years. And as you can see, their profitability did suffer and declined since then. But even after the decline caused by regulations and tax rate changes, their current ROCE is still above 89% for BABA and about 154% for TCEHY.Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha dataGrowth prospects and final verdictAs such, looking forward, I see both as well-poised to sustainably fund their innovation via their organic profits. Furthermore, as mentioned above, I also see both best poised to benefit from the secular trend of e-commerce and digitalization not only in China but also globally. Currently, 80% of the commerce is still currently conducted offline and eCommerce only accounts for a total of 20% of the total. The remainder of the digital revolution will be unevenly distributed geographically and the Asia-Pacific region will be the epicenter. And leaders like BABA and TCEHY will be the best positioned to benefit as argued in my earlier article:⌠the remaining shift will be unevenly distributed and the Asian-Pacific region will be the center of the momentum. As shown in the chart above, world retail e-commerce sales are expected to exceed $7.3 trillion by 2025. The twist is that the Asia-Pacific region will be where most of the growth will be. By 2023, the Western continents will contribute 16% of the total B2B e-commerce volume, while the remaining 84% would come from the non-Western world. And leaders like BABA and TCEHY are best poised to benefit with their scale and reach, government support, cultural compatibility with other Asian-Pacific countries, and also geographic proximity.Finally, the following table summarizes all the key metrics discussed above. As mentioned early on, my thesis is that I donât see why value investing would stop working here given the megatrend, their profitability, and their current valuation. To wit, their valuation is so low that they both provide a healthy ownerâs earning yield (âOEYâ): 5.6% for BABA and 6.3% for TCEHY at their current prices. And note here that I'm using the free cash flow taken from Seeking Alpha as shown in the second chart below to approximate their ownersâ earnings. As such, this is a conservative estimate for their OEY, because the true owners' earnings will be free cash flow plus the growth part of their CAPEX expenses.For growth, BABA is projected to grow at 8.9% assuming a reinvestment rate of 10% and its current ROCE of 89% (Perpetual growth rate = 89% ROCE * 10% reinvestment rate = 8.9%). And for TCEHY, the growth rate would be even higher, 15.4%, if we assume the same 10% reinvestment rate because of its higher ROCE of 154% (Perpetual growth rate = 154% ROCE * 10% reinvestment rate = 15.4%).All told, BABA is projected to provide a 14.5% total return per year (5.6% OEY plus 8.9% growth) and TCEHY 21.7% (6.3% OEY plus 15.4% growth).Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha dataSource: Seeking Alpha dataRisks and final thoughtsThere are a couple of risks worth mentioning, especially in the near term. Firstly, their ROCE might shrink from the current levels either due to the slowdown of the overall Chinese economy or due to further regulatory changes. Secondly, they may not always be able to find high-margin and high-growth areas to reinvest. The above projections were made under the assumption that A) they always find new opportunities with returns matching their current ROCE, and B) the opportunities are sizable enough to absorb a 10% reinvestment rate. Although under current conditions, even if the growth rates are cut by half due to a combination of A and B, their total annual returns would still be in the double digits.To conclude, a key disagreement between many bulls and bears surrounding BABA and TCEHY is not about their valuation or profitability. The key disagreement is simply whether value investing can work in China or not. The question is not only logical but also well supported by recent facts (say the performance of the China stock market, BABA stock prices, and TCEHY prices in the past 5 or 10 years). However, by widening the perspective, my view is that what happened to BABA and TCEHY recently is a hiccup along the way of an unstoppable secular shift from the old economy to the new economy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":325,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9912560276,"gmtCreate":1664853537795,"gmtModify":1676537519596,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Zero covid will not last forever ","listText":"Zero covid will not last forever ","text":"Zero covid will not last forever","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9912560276","repostId":"2272048859","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":640,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9919314649,"gmtCreate":1663728716181,"gmtModify":1676537325070,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good for growt.

Losses for the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite amounted to roughly 1%, with small-cap stocks taking relatively larger hits than their large-cap counterparts.</p><p>As the stock market becomes more volatile, investors are increasingly appreciating companies that reward them with predictable and growing streams of dividend income. Today, Microsoft (MSFT -0.85%) announced that it would boost its quarterly payout to shareholders. The tech giant pays a relatively modest yield, but some other dividend-stock stalwarts are also in line to pay more to their investors in the near future. Read on to learn more about Microsoft as well as three other companies that could give similar rewards to shareholders soon.</p><h3>A higher payout for Microsoft</h3><p>Microsoft stock didn't do all that well on Tuesday, losing almost 1% in the regular trading session. However, long-term investors will get a little bit more from the software giant in the form of higher dividend checks.</p><p>Microsoft's board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.68 per share. Shareholders of record as of Nov. 17 will receive the higher payout, which will show up in investors' accounts on Dec. 8. The payout is $0.06 higher than the previous $0.62 per-share quarterly dividend.</p><p>With a dividend yield of only about 1%, most investors don't think much about Microsoft as a dividend stock. Yet the company has developed a solid track record of boosting dividend payouts over time, with the latest move making 2022 the 20th straight year in which Microsoft has paid more in annual dividends than in the previous year.</p><h3>These companies could be next</h3><p>Many companies have even longer track records than Microsoft in paying higher dividends. For instance, the following three companies typically announce their dividend increases around this time of year:</p><ul><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EMR\">Emerson Electric </a> has an impressive 65-year track record of paying higher dividends to its shareholders. The company's most recent increase came last November when it announced a 2% boost to $0.515 per share on a quarterly basis.</li><li>Fast-food giant McDonald's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MCD\">$(MCD)$</a> made a larger payout boost late last year, increasing quarterly dividends by $0.09 to $1.38 per share. The Golden Arches chain has a 47-year streak of paying higher dividends for long-term shareholders.</li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/XOM\">ExxonMobil </a> has a 40-year dividend-increase streak on the line as it enters the final months of the year. Last year's most recent payout boost added just a single penny to the quarterly payout, with shareholders receiving $0.88 per share each quarter.</li></ul><p>There's no guarantee that these companies will follow through with dividend increases. Every year, there are often at least a few long-paying dividend stocks that have to make payout cuts or even suspend their payouts temporarily.</p><p>However, all three of these blue-chip stocks have strong businesses underlying them, and they've had the ability to weather difficult economic times in the past and still give their shareholders higher payouts over time.

Losses for the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite amounted to roughly 1%, with small-cap stocks taking relatively larger hits than their large-cap counterparts.As the stock market becomes more volatile, investors are increasingly appreciating companies that reward them with predictable and growing streams of dividend income. Today, Microsoft (MSFT -0.85%) announced that it would boost its quarterly payout to shareholders. The tech giant pays a relatively modest yield, but some other dividend-stock stalwarts are also in line to pay more to their investors in the near future. Read on to learn more about Microsoft as well as three other companies that could give similar rewards to shareholders soon.A higher payout for MicrosoftMicrosoft stock didn't do all that well on Tuesday, losing almost 1% in the regular trading session. However, long-term investors will get a little bit more from the software giant in the form of higher dividend checks.Microsoft's board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.68 per share. Shareholders of record as of Nov. 17 will receive the higher payout, which will show up in investors' accounts on Dec. 8. The payout is $0.06 higher than the previous $0.62 per-share quarterly dividend.With a dividend yield of only about 1%, most investors don't think much about Microsoft as a dividend stock. Yet the company has developed a solid track record of boosting dividend payouts over time, with the latest move making 2022 the 20th straight year in which Microsoft has paid more in annual dividends than in the previous year.These companies could be nextMany companies have even longer track records than Microsoft in paying higher dividends. For instance, the following three companies typically announce their dividend increases around this time of year:Emerson Electric has an impressive 65-year track record of paying higher dividends to its shareholders. The company's most recent increase came last November when it announced a 2% boost to $0.515 per share on a quarterly basis.Fast-food giant McDonald's $(MCD)$ made a larger payout boost late last year, increasing quarterly dividends by $0.09 to $1.38 per share. The Golden Arches chain has a 47-year streak of paying higher dividends for long-term shareholders.ExxonMobil has a 40-year dividend-increase streak on the line as it enters the final months of the year. Last year's most recent payout boost added just a single penny to the quarterly payout, with shareholders receiving $0.88 per share each quarter.There's no guarantee that these companies will follow through with dividend increases. Every year, there are often at least a few long-paying dividend stocks that have to make payout cuts or even suspend their payouts temporarily.However, all three of these blue-chip stocks have strong businesses underlying them, and they've had the ability to weather difficult economic times in the past and still give their shareholders higher payouts over time. At a time when many investors are feeling increasingly uncomfortable with how much the prices of their stocks have fallen, the extra confidence of knowing that they can receive a quarterly check from these companies is especially valuable.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":269,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9937358134,"gmtCreate":1663373947928,"gmtModify":1676537260129,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting. question is who has the stomachand nerves of steel to hold till the New highs ","listText":"Interesting. question is who has the stomachand nerves of steel to hold till the New highs ","text":"Interesting. question is who has the stomachand nerves of steel to hold till the New highs","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9937358134","repostId":"1193038112","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1193038112","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1663373059,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1193038112?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-17 08:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dare To Dream: Can QQQ Make New All-Time Highs In 2023?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1193038112","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryYou may have noticed that sentiment is dour at present.

It's the worst tool anyone can think of for the job, except for all the other tools that anyone has yet thought of. Let's take the Nasdaq-100 index, in its QQQ ETF format. If you could construct any coherent narrative as to why the ETF fell to the level it did in the COVID crisis, ran up to the level it did in 2021, and then corrected to the level it has in 2022, we're all ears. We don't mean "why did it sell off hard into COVID" or "why did it turn weak come 2022?" We mean, why did it find support and resistance at those specific levels?</p><p>If you use fairly standard Elliott Wave and Fibonacci measures, the QQQ confirms almost perfectly to textbook levels since the 2018 lows. And because the pattern fits so well, in the larger and smaller degree, one has to ask oneself... are the Doom-Mongers of Fin Twit really correct that it's all going to zero?</p><p>Let's first of all take a look at the move from the Q4 2018 lows to the Q4 2021 highs. </p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4c9120d3593db409e5b620370d28decd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"297\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>QQQ Chart (TrendSpider, Cestrian Analysis)</span></p><p>The first thing to note is the start point. Right at the end of Q4 2018 the Fed had tried to normalize monetary policy by raising rates and planning to shrink, not grow, the size of its balance sheet. This caused a market tantrum such that most all of 2018's gains in the S&P or the Nasdaq were wiped out. The bottom came in right at the end of the year. We can call that Point Zero.</p><p>QQQ then rose in a Wave 1 up, peaking at around $237 in February 2020, a fairly quick gain of 65% in the prior fourteen months or so. The chat at the time was that this was nuts and couldn't last.</p><p>Yikes, Freak Out!!</p><p>Now a very interesting thing happens. COVID hits and naturally enough the world freaks out as do investors. Rather surprisingly however, it turns out one can model a "yikes freak out" reaction in the market. "Yikes freak out" usually means a Wave 2 down, a fast and deep drop. And very often a Wave 2 down finds support at the 61.8% or 78.6% retracement of the prior Wave 1 up. The Covid lows in the QQQ were<i>precisely</i>a 78.6% drop from the Wave 1 highs back towards Point Zero. Likely not a coincidence.</p><p><b>Now The Long Road To Happiness</b></p><p>After a "Yikes Freak Out" Wave 2 comes a Wave 3 which are typically powerful upward moves. Which is what happens to the Qs coming out of COVID. You know all the reasons <i>why</i> it is said this happens - Fed helicopter money, crypto bros, work from home tech refresh cycle, all that - but put that aside for a moment because, really, who cares <i>why</i> it happened. Let's <i>measure</i> what happened. The chart above shows this. Wave 3s typically terminate at a minimum of the 100% extension of the prior Wave 1, and more commonly the 161.8% extension. More bullish levels are the 261.8%, 361.8%, and so on. (By the way, if Fibonacci extensions are new to you, fear not. Whilst the theory behind<i>why</i>Fibonacci numbers matter is complicated, the math involved in calculating how they apply to stock prices is not. The 161.8% extension of Wave 1 is calculated thus: take the stock price movement in Wave 1, multiply it by 1.618, and add that to the stock price at the Wave 2 low, hey presto, that's the 161.8% extension of Wave 1). Anyway. You can see that at the most recent all-time high, QQQ hit the 261.8% (=2.618) extension of Wave 1 almost to the dollar. Again, probably not a coincidence.</p><p><b>Then Comes Boiling The Frog</b></p><p>2022 comes and here we go with a Wave 4 down. Psychologically, emotionally, and potentially financially, Wave 4s are tough. Most people have become accustomed to the occasional shock and awe flash crash Wave 2. The panic is over as soon as it began. Also due to the mass psychology involved, which usually translates as<i>someone has to do something</i>, very often, someone does in fact do something - COVID stimulus being a prime example. But in a slow-boil Wave 4, the panic never really rises. Instead it's a stages-of-grief thing where if you're not careful you end up accepting and moving on. Which means you toss your account overboard and start a new day. Except you don't, because that's usually when the market rebounds and then you are too stunned to do anything about it, fearful that you will just buy into the next leg down. Actually the first half of 2022 saw Big Money do a fine job of work in this regard. If you look at how one measure of volatility, the Vix index, has moved vs. the panics of 2020 and indeed the Fed-tightening fear in 2018, it has barely moved at all - just traded sideways in a channel.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae14b1ca4f0561e9aa095aa32de983e2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"350\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Vix Chart (TradingView, Cestrian "Analysis")</span></p><p>There are many reasons for this but chief amongst them has been the institutional use of out-of-the-money index puts that have been rolled out and down through the first half, slow and steady, no freaking out, just dragging down the indices and their proxy ETFs as market makers have had to sell those indices in order to hedge their positions (having sold puts to institutions, market makers are then long the market, so have to sell underlying securities in order to get back to neutral).</p><p>And this wave 4 right here is what has caused the it's-all-over mentality to take hold, in our view.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/52a7ab589c32698e50b1eb8755902c70\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"302\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>QQQ Chart (TrendSpider, Cestrian Analysis)</span></p><p>It's been a deeper-than-expected correction for sure. With a 78.6% retraced Wave 2 you might normally expect a 38.2% retraced Wave 4 - that's based on nothing other than pattern recognition. The 38.2% retracement of Wave 3 was $315, which is where the QQQ set up camp for a while in February this year, before head-faking to the upside then digging for victory once more. Thus far the Wave 4 looks to have bottomed in June, between the 50% and 61.8% retracements of Wave 3.</p><p><b>Wait, Isn't This A Bullish Article?</b></p><p>So, the title of this article is, "Dare To Dream". Looks more like a nightmare for 2022. Or does it? Let's zoom in to see what has happened since those June lows.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/941554bdc300eb4dad173f18f77aeafc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"299\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>QQQ Chart (TrendSpider, Cestrian Analysis)</span></p><p>The waves & Fibonacci approach works in smaller and larger degrees. One cannot say that it's truly fractal in nature, as is often claimed, since there's no perfectly-repeating pattern in smaller and smaller degrees, but we can say that because the extensions and retracements are merely emotional and/or algorithmic reactions to the most recent price movements, they are self-referential in nature and that is why they scale up and down - because a larger degree move is relative to an earlier larger degree move, and a smaller degree move is relative to an earlier smaller degree move.</p><p>Look at the 5-waves up from the June lows. The Fib levels work nicely - a 78.6% retrace Wave ii, a 223.6% Wave iii extension of Wave i, and we'll see what happens with September options expiry (that's today at the time of writing) does to the Wave iv. But so far there is every chance we then get a smaller degree Wave v up (once September opex is done, a wall of puts will expire and market-maker short hedges will need to be covered, which can drive a move upwards).</p><p>And if that Wave v happens, and for it to be a Wave v it must peak above the Wave iii high - then that's ongoing confirmation that the June lows were the lows. We aren't there yet. We need to see that Wave v exceed QQQ $335ish. But if we do? Well, if that Wave v does arrive, the bear argument - that we're in a downwards channel that started last November and has featured only countertrend rallies since then - starts to look a lot weaker. Not necessarily wrong, anything can change, but weaker.</p><p>Then the outlook can be like ... this. A final flourish in the larger degree to complete a 5-wave cycle up off of those 2018 lows.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/915355750cdd99c2cfca3f27e8bcdada\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"300\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>QQQ Chart (TrendSpider, Cestrian Analysis)</span></p><p>Now, we don't think this is a Wen Moon situation. We can make a technical argument that QQQ will peak in a Wave 5 in the 500s, 550s even, and maybe it will. But for the record and until facts disturb our opinion, we think that QQQ will make a new high in 2023, maybe early 2024. And then put in a Yikes Wave 2 in the even-larger-degree. Because those 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 waves up you see from 2018 to (maybe) 2023-4? They combine to form probably a Wave 1 up. Which means a Yikes Wave 2 next. Or, maybe they combine to form a Wave 3 up. In which case it's a Doom N Gloom Forever Wave 4 next. Either way, down. In our<i>Growth Investor Pro</i>service we lean bullish right now but much of our work positioning for possible upside ahead is done - we have our stocks and ETFs set up with stop ideas and accumulation price zones and price targets and all that. More of our time right now is being spent on ... how do we make big from the move down that comes after the next high. And for that? Stay tuned.</p><p>Oh and by the way. Want to play QQQ to the long side? Consider this approach.</p><p>1 - Wait to see if QQQ moves up above $288, which is the 0.786 retrace of the smaller-degree Wave iv above.</p><p>2 - If no, wait. (This is like one of those early multi-user dungeon games. "Time passes ....")</p><p>3 - If yes, consider buying with a stop-loss a little below that $288 level ... $270-274 makes sense as it's below the Wave ii low so if it gets there, something has gone wrong.</p><p>4 - Consider accumulating a position in the range of $290-$300, slowly over time, buying on red days not green days.</p><p>5 - Consider holding to see if we can make it to $335 - the potential Wave v high. That's >10% free money if so. At which point you can set a trailing stop or move your stops up or similar and then just decide how much of an ulcer you want to develop whilst waiting to see if QQQ can indeed beat the 2021 high.</p><p>Good luck to all!</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Dare To Dream: Can QQQ Make New All-Time Highs In 2023?</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\">\nDare To Dream: Can QQQ Make New All-Time Highs In 2023?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-17 08:04 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4541458-can-qqq-make-new-all-time-highs-in-2023><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryYou may have noticed that sentiment is dour at present.

It's the worst tool anyone can think of for the job, except for all the other tools that anyone has yet thought of. Let's take the Nasdaq-100 index, in its QQQ ETF format. If you could construct any coherent narrative as to why the ETF fell to the level it did in the COVID crisis, ran up to the level it did in 2021, and then corrected to the level it has in 2022, we're all ears. We don't mean \"why did it sell off hard into COVID\" or \"why did it turn weak come 2022?\" We mean, why did it find support and resistance at those specific levels?If you use fairly standard Elliott Wave and Fibonacci measures, the QQQ confirms almost perfectly to textbook levels since the 2018 lows. And because the pattern fits so well, in the larger and smaller degree, one has to ask oneself... are the Doom-Mongers of Fin Twit really correct that it's all going to zero?Let's first of all take a look at the move from the Q4 2018 lows to the Q4 2021 highs. QQQ Chart (TrendSpider, Cestrian Analysis)The first thing to note is the start point. Right at the end of Q4 2018 the Fed had tried to normalize monetary policy by raising rates and planning to shrink, not grow, the size of its balance sheet. This caused a market tantrum such that most all of 2018's gains in the S&P or the Nasdaq were wiped out. The bottom came in right at the end of the year. We can call that Point Zero.QQQ then rose in a Wave 1 up, peaking at around $237 in February 2020, a fairly quick gain of 65% in the prior fourteen months or so. The chat at the time was that this was nuts and couldn't last.Yikes, Freak Out!!Now a very interesting thing happens. COVID hits and naturally enough the world freaks out as do investors. Rather surprisingly however, it turns out one can model a \"yikes freak out\" reaction in the market. \"Yikes freak out\" usually means a Wave 2 down, a fast and deep drop. And very often a Wave 2 down finds support at the 61.8% or 78.6% retracement of the prior Wave 1 up. The Covid lows in the QQQ werepreciselya 78.6% drop from the Wave 1 highs back towards Point Zero. Likely not a coincidence.Now The Long Road To HappinessAfter a \"Yikes Freak Out\" Wave 2 comes a Wave 3 which are typically powerful upward moves. Which is what happens to the Qs coming out of COVID. You know all the reasons why it is said this happens - Fed helicopter money, crypto bros, work from home tech refresh cycle, all that - but put that aside for a moment because, really, who cares why it happened. Let's measure what happened. The chart above shows this. Wave 3s typically terminate at a minimum of the 100% extension of the prior Wave 1, and more commonly the 161.8% extension. More bullish levels are the 261.8%, 361.8%, and so on. (By the way, if Fibonacci extensions are new to you, fear not. Whilst the theory behindwhyFibonacci numbers matter is complicated, the math involved in calculating how they apply to stock prices is not. The 161.8% extension of Wave 1 is calculated thus: take the stock price movement in Wave 1, multiply it by 1.618, and add that to the stock price at the Wave 2 low, hey presto, that's the 161.8% extension of Wave 1). Anyway. You can see that at the most recent all-time high, QQQ hit the 261.8% (=2.618) extension of Wave 1 almost to the dollar. Again, probably not a coincidence.Then Comes Boiling The Frog2022 comes and here we go with a Wave 4 down. Psychologically, emotionally, and potentially financially, Wave 4s are tough. Most people have become accustomed to the occasional shock and awe flash crash Wave 2. The panic is over as soon as it began. Also due to the mass psychology involved, which usually translates assomeone has to do something, very often, someone does in fact do something - COVID stimulus being a prime example. But in a slow-boil Wave 4, the panic never really rises. Instead it's a stages-of-grief thing where if you're not careful you end up accepting and moving on. Which means you toss your account overboard and start a new day. Except you don't, because that's usually when the market rebounds and then you are too stunned to do anything about it, fearful that you will just buy into the next leg down. Actually the first half of 2022 saw Big Money do a fine job of work in this regard. If you look at how one measure of volatility, the Vix index, has moved vs. the panics of 2020 and indeed the Fed-tightening fear in 2018, it has barely moved at all - just traded sideways in a channel.Vix Chart (TradingView, Cestrian \"Analysis\")There are many reasons for this but chief amongst them has been the institutional use of out-of-the-money index puts that have been rolled out and down through the first half, slow and steady, no freaking out, just dragging down the indices and their proxy ETFs as market makers have had to sell those indices in order to hedge their positions (having sold puts to institutions, market makers are then long the market, so have to sell underlying securities in order to get back to neutral).And this wave 4 right here is what has caused the it's-all-over mentality to take hold, in our view.QQQ Chart (TrendSpider, Cestrian Analysis)It's been a deeper-than-expected correction for sure. With a 78.6% retraced Wave 2 you might normally expect a 38.2% retraced Wave 4 - that's based on nothing other than pattern recognition. The 38.2% retracement of Wave 3 was $315, which is where the QQQ set up camp for a while in February this year, before head-faking to the upside then digging for victory once more. Thus far the Wave 4 looks to have bottomed in June, between the 50% and 61.8% retracements of Wave 3.Wait, Isn't This A Bullish Article?So, the title of this article is, \"Dare To Dream\". Looks more like a nightmare for 2022. Or does it? Let's zoom in to see what has happened since those June lows.QQQ Chart (TrendSpider, Cestrian Analysis)The waves & Fibonacci approach works in smaller and larger degrees. One cannot say that it's truly fractal in nature, as is often claimed, since there's no perfectly-repeating pattern in smaller and smaller degrees, but we can say that because the extensions and retracements are merely emotional and/or algorithmic reactions to the most recent price movements, they are self-referential in nature and that is why they scale up and down - because a larger degree move is relative to an earlier larger degree move, and a smaller degree move is relative to an earlier smaller degree move.Look at the 5-waves up from the June lows. The Fib levels work nicely - a 78.6% retrace Wave ii, a 223.6% Wave iii extension of Wave i, and we'll see what happens with September options expiry (that's today at the time of writing) does to the Wave iv. But so far there is every chance we then get a smaller degree Wave v up (once September opex is done, a wall of puts will expire and market-maker short hedges will need to be covered, which can drive a move upwards).And if that Wave v happens, and for it to be a Wave v it must peak above the Wave iii high - then that's ongoing confirmation that the June lows were the lows. We aren't there yet. We need to see that Wave v exceed QQQ $335ish. But if we do? Well, if that Wave v does arrive, the bear argument - that we're in a downwards channel that started last November and has featured only countertrend rallies since then - starts to look a lot weaker. Not necessarily wrong, anything can change, but weaker.Then the outlook can be like ... this. A final flourish in the larger degree to complete a 5-wave cycle up off of those 2018 lows.QQQ Chart (TrendSpider, Cestrian Analysis)Now, we don't think this is a Wen Moon situation. We can make a technical argument that QQQ will peak in a Wave 5 in the 500s, 550s even, and maybe it will. But for the record and until facts disturb our opinion, we think that QQQ will make a new high in 2023, maybe early 2024. And then put in a Yikes Wave 2 in the even-larger-degree. Because those 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 waves up you see from 2018 to (maybe) 2023-4? They combine to form probably a Wave 1 up. Which means a Yikes Wave 2 next. Or, maybe they combine to form a Wave 3 up. In which case it's a Doom N Gloom Forever Wave 4 next. Either way, down. In ourGrowth Investor Proservice we lean bullish right now but much of our work positioning for possible upside ahead is done - we have our stocks and ETFs set up with stop ideas and accumulation price zones and price targets and all that. More of our time right now is being spent on ... how do we make big from the move down that comes after the next high. And for that? Stay tuned.Oh and by the way. Want to play QQQ to the long side? Consider this approach.1 - Wait to see if QQQ moves up above $288, which is the 0.786 retrace of the smaller-degree Wave iv above.2 - If no, wait. (This is like one of those early multi-user dungeon games. \"Time passes ....\")3 - If yes, consider buying with a stop-loss a little below that $288 level ... $270-274 makes sense as it's below the Wave ii low so if it gets there, something has gone wrong.4 - Consider accumulating a position in the range of $290-$300, slowly over time, buying on red days not green days.5 - Consider holding to see if we can make it to $335 - the potential Wave v high. That's >10% free money if so. At which point you can set a trailing stop or move your stops up or similar and then just decide how much of an ulcer you want to develop whilst waiting to see if QQQ can indeed beat the 2021 high.Good luck to all!","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":386,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9932757978,"gmtCreate":1662996412094,"gmtModify":1676537179301,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Absolutely true.

In particular, billionaires have really taken a liking to tech stocks focused on forward-looking innovation.</p><p>What follows are four next-generation tech stocks billionaires simply can't stop buying.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/86a2726b9174984dc74f2cbd11eb01a0\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Upstart Holdings</h2><p>The first innovative powerhouse that at least one billionaire money manager can't stop purchasing is cloud-based lending platform <b>Upstart Holdings</b>. During the second quarter, billionaire Philippe Laffont of Coatue Management acquired roughly 2.36 million shares.</p><p>What puts Upstart on the leading edge of its industry is its use of artificial intelligence (AI) to vet loan applications. Rather than rely on the traditional (and slow) loan-vetting process, Upstart leans on predictive technologies and previously vetted loan data to approve and fully automate nearly three-quarters of all loans its processes. This saves the six dozen financial institutions Upstart has partnered with time and money.</p><p>However, what stands out even more about Upstart is the broader pool of applicants being approved. The typical loan applicant to gain approval with Upstart has a lower average credit score than the those approved with the traditional vetting process. Yet, delinquency rates between Upstart's AI-based process and the traditional vetting process have been similar. The implication here is that Upstart can expand the potential pool of borrowers for banks and credit unions without adversely impacting their credit-risk profile.</p><p>Laffont is likely also encouraged by Upstart's push into new verticals. Whereas it's spent years processing personal loan applications, it's begun handling auto loan and small business loan originations. On a combined basis, auto and small business loans are more than 10X the market size of personal loan originations.</p><h2>Snowflake</h2><p>The second next-generation tech stock billionaires can't seem to get enough of is cloud data-warehousing company <b>Snowflake</b>. The June-ended quarter saw billionaire Jim Simons of Renaissance Technologies add more than 1.25 million shares to his fund's existing position (which now stands at more than 2 million shares).</p><p>The answer to "Why Snowflake?" can be explained by the company's unique operating model. For instance, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, businesses are shifting data into the cloud at an accelerated rate. However, sharing that data across competing cloud infrastructure platforms can be challenging. Snowflake's platform resolves this by building its infrastructure atop the leading cloud-service providers. In other words, Snowflake clients can seamlessly share and move data with ease.</p><p>What's more, Snowflake has shunned the extremely common practice among cloud providers of pushing subscriptions. Instead, Snowflake offers something of a pay-as-you-go service that charges based on the amount of data stored and Snowflake Compute Credits used. This provides more cost transparency for the company's clients than a one-size-fits-all subscription package.</p><p>Arguably the biggest obstacle for Snowflake is the company's own valuation. Even after a significant share price haircut, the company is valued at 27 times Wall Street's projected sales of roughly $2 billion in fiscal 2023. But if Snowflake can make good on its march to $10 billion in net sales by fiscal 2029 (calendar year 2028), billionaires like Simons may be glad they paid a premium to hold a stake in Snowflake.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/211e091fdc6d666e97bc0800aa3072ce\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"394\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Palantir Technologies</h2><p>The third cutting-edge tech stock billionaires can't stop buying is data mining company <b>Palantir Technologies</b>. During the second quarter, billionaire Israel Englander's Millennium Management bought nearly 1.9 million shares of Palantir stock. To boot, Simons' Renaissance Technologies more than doubled its stake by purchasing close to 15.69 million shares.</p><p>Billionaires love Palantir for the simple reason that its technology at scale hasn't been duplicated by any other company. Put in another context, Palantir has no direct competitors that can replace the services it's offering to federal governments and predominantly large-scale businesses.</p><p>The company's Gotham operating system is an AI-driven platform designed to help federal governments gather data, plan missions, accelerate decision-making. Large contract wins from the U.S. government tied to Gotham explain why Palantir has sustained a 30% or greater sales growth rate for the past couple of years.</p><p>However, Gotham has a limited ceiling. That's because Palantir's management won't extend the Gotham operating system to certain governments, such as China. Over the long run, the company's Foundry software is its golden ticket to sustained double-digit growth. Foundry helps businesses streamline their operations by making sense of big data. In the June-ended quarter, Palantir's commercial customer count more than tripled to 119 from the year-ago quarter. In short, Foundry is in the very early innings of its growth phase.</p><h2>CrowdStrike Holdings</h2><p>The fourth and final next-generation tech stock billionaires can't stop buying is cybersecurity giant <b>CrowdStrike Holdings</b>. Billionaire Steve Cohen of Point72 Asset Management purchased over 819,000 shares of CrowdStrike during the second quarter, which ultimately boosted Point72's stake to 955,234 shares.</p><p>What makes CrowdStrike tick is the company's AI-powered Falcon security platform. Falcon oversees in the neighborhood of 1 trillion events on a daily basis, which allows the platform to become more adept at recognizing and responding to potential end-user threats. While CrowdStrike doesn't offer the cheapest cybersecurity solutions, the fact that its gross retention rate is hovering around 98% clearly implies that Falcon is effective.</p><p>Something else to consider about CrowdStrike, and the cybersecurity industry as a whole, is that cybersecurity has evolved into a basic necessity service. No matter how poorly the stock market or U.S. economy perform, bad actors don't take a day off from trying to steal enterprise or customer data. This creates a base level of demand for a company like CrowdStrike.</p><p>But the best thing of all about CrowdStrike might just be its ability to encourage its existing clients to spend more. In a span of five years, the percentage of customers with four or more cloud-module subscriptions catapulted from 9% to more than 70%. Having existing customers purchase additional services is CrowdStrike's golden ticket to subscription gross margins of around 80%.</p></body></html>","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>4 Next-Generation Tech Stocks Billionaires Can't Stop Buying</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\">\n4 Next-Generation Tech Stocks Billionaires Can't Stop Buying\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-09 06:24 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/09/08/4-tech-stocks-billionaires-cant-stop-buying/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>There's no beating about the bush: It's been a trying year for investors.

However, TipRanksâ data shows only two of the six MATANA stocks have strong potential to outperform the market.The new face of big tech stocks should be MATANA and not FAANG, said Principal Analyst and the Founder of Constellation Research, Ray Wang, in a video interview with Yahoo Finance Live. MATANA is the abbreviation of Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), Amazon (NASDAQ:AMN), Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), and Alphabet (formerly Google) (NASDAQ:GOOGL). TipRanksâ data shows that Wall Street analysts maintain a bullish outlook on the shares of these tech giants. However, only two stocks (MSFT and AAPL) have an Outperform Smart Score.Now, letâs examine why Wangâs recommendation holds ground in the current market dynamics.Why MATANA?For years, the FAANG fraternity represented big tech players that included Meta Platforms (earlier Facebook) (NASDAQ:META), Apple, Amazon, Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX), and Google. Wang suggests dropping Meta Platforms and Netflix from the list and adding Microsoft, Tesla, and Nvidia to the group.The analystâs comments have come amid the underperformance of these mega-cap stocks in 2022. Not only this, the fact that Netflix and Meta are struggling more than the others to stay relevant to their stakeholders may have somewhat shaken Wangâs trust, triggering his suggestion to drop them from the FAANG list.Notably, heightened competition is taking its toll on Netflixâs and Metaâs businesses. Further, the pullback in ad spending and regulatory concerns (primarily for Meta) remains a drag.The graph shows that analysts maintain a Strong Buy rating consensus on AAPL, MSFT, AMZN, and GOOGL stocks. However, they are cautiously optimistic about TSLA and NVDA. Further, barring Apple and Microsoft (with a Smart Score of âPerfect 10â), the other four stocks sport a Neutral Smart Score on TipRanks, implying they could perform in line with the broader market.Bottom LineMacro headwinds impacting consumer and enterprise spending and supply-chain shortages could continue to hurt the prospects of these tech giants.

Ltd. debuted a few weeks back will likely have to keep waiting for that sort of launch at Apple, but iPhone fans should expect a faster processor and the end of a much-mocked design element.There could be a long awaited announcement of satellite connection technology for iPhones, which would allow people to communicate even while far off the beaten path. The move was expected last year and was not announced, and a similar setup is happening into this year, with analyst Ming-Chi Kuo writing this week that âApple had completed hardware tests for this feature,â but âwhether iPhone 14 will offer satellite communication service depends on whether Apple and operators can settle the business model.âThe iPhone Pro models are expected to get the majority of the upgrades, relative to the regular iPhone models. Bloomberg News has reported that Apple plans to introduce a 48-megapixel camera, a faster chip, and better battery life for the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. MacRumors notes that the enhanced camera would let more light pass through the lens, something that could allow for better image quality, including when shooting with the companyâs Portrait Mode feature.The iPhone 14 Pro could also feature the new A16 chip, which MacRumors has said may help the company power the new camera, as well as the always-on display that some Apple watchers are expecting to finally see on the latest model. While Apple is thought to be planning chip upgrades for the Pro models, 9to5Mac expects that the company could stick with the same A15 chip for the base iPhone 14 line that was used in the iPhone 13 family.Also expected at the Wednesday event is an update to the Apple Watch lineup. Bloomberg reports that Apple is planning to introduce an Apple Watch SE featuring a faster chip, an Apple Watch Series 8 containing a body-temperature sensor, and a pro-level model. Evercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani said that the hypothetical Apple Watch Pro could bring âmore battery life, a larger screen, and new fitness features.âAppleâs iPhone event comes a week earlier in September than its one last year, suggesting to Evercoreâs Daryanani that the company might also make the phones available for purchase sooner. For investors, that means Appleâs September quarter could feature an extra week of iPhone sales relative to last yearâs.Apple stock has declined 10.9% so far this year, as the Dow Jones Industrial Average â which counts Apple among its 30 components â has declined 12.9% and the S&P 500 index has fallen 16.8%.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":471,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9931882831,"gmtCreate":1662430816623,"gmtModify":1676537058743,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Very true!

The exchange-traded fund saw daily inflows in only six days last month.</p><p>The surge of outflows underscores a stark shift of sentiment, after money flowed in for much of this year even as the innovation-themed fund plummeted. Investor loyalty may now be reaching a limit, with the ETF down 60% this year, compared with the S&P 500 Indexâs 18% drop, and prospects dim for a revival anytime soon.</p><p>âUltimately, performance is king,â said Nate Geraci, president of The ETF Store, an advisory firm. âNo matter how much conviction a manager has and how closely they stick to their beliefs, if the performance isnât there, ultimately the outflows will follow.â</p><p>ARKK flow data arrives with a one-day time lag, meaning the monthly data represent the period from the last trading day of the previous month to the second-to-last day of the current month.

That had helped assets in the fund stay sticky earlier in the year, since investors knew what to expect with ARKK, Geraci said. But Woodâs picks have also contributed to the fundâs continued underperformance, as red-hot inflation and monetary tightening batter growth stocks.</p><p>ARKK last month snapped up shares of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZM\">Zoom</a> Video Communications Inc. as the video-conferencing company plunged to pre-pandemic levels.

Fallon/AFP/Getty ImagesCathie Woodâs fans turned tail last month, pulling out the most money from her flagship fund in nearly a year as it continues to flounder.The $8 billion Ark Innovation ETF (ticker ARKK) saw $803 million rush out in August, the biggest monthly outflow since last September, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The exchange-traded fund saw daily inflows in only six days last month.The surge of outflows underscores a stark shift of sentiment, after money flowed in for much of this year even as the innovation-themed fund plummeted. Investor loyalty may now be reaching a limit, with the ETF down 60% this year, compared with the S&P 500 Indexâs 18% drop, and prospects dim for a revival anytime soon.âUltimately, performance is king,â said Nate Geraci, president of The ETF Store, an advisory firm. âNo matter how much conviction a manager has and how closely they stick to their beliefs, if the performance isnât there, ultimately the outflows will follow.âARKK flow data arrives with a one-day time lag, meaning the monthly data represent the period from the last trading day of the previous month to the second-to-last day of the current month. For example, the August period represents flows from July 29 to August 30.Wood and her team have kept to their theme of disruptive technology while managing ARKK. That had helped assets in the fund stay sticky earlier in the year, since investors knew what to expect with ARKK, Geraci said. But Woodâs picks have also contributed to the fundâs continued underperformance, as red-hot inflation and monetary tightening batter growth stocks.ARKK last month snapped up shares of Zoom Video Communications Inc. as the video-conferencing company plunged to pre-pandemic levels. The fund has also been buying Ginkgo Bioworks Holdings Inc., which has fallen 69% this year.Some investors may have seen last month as a good time to get out as the ETF rebounded from its June low up until mid-August, Geraci said. But in another indication of bearish sentiment toward Woodâs flagship, the AXS Short Innovation Daily ETF (SARK), which delivers the inverse daily performance of ARKK, saw its biggest monthly inflow since January.âJust Let It GoâJoe Lin, a 38-year-old tech worker in the Bay Area, first invested in ARKK shortly before the fund peaked in February 2021.

The reasons for this are pretty straightforward:</p><p>1. The economic growth outlook is weak, if not negative for the foreseeable future. Without strong economic growth, earnings growth is bound to be weak as well.</p><p>2. Valuation multiples are elevated relative to historical averages. According to datacompiledby Current Market Valuation based on an equally weighted average of the Yield Curve, Buffett indicator, P/E Ratio, Interest Rate, Margin Debt, and S&P 500 Mean Reversion models based on historical data, the market is currently towards the upper end of the fairly valued range. This means that it is almost overvalued, implying that the market is likely to experience lackluster, if not poor, returns for the foreseeable future. The SPY is overvalued according to the Yield Curve, Buffett Indicator, P/E Ratio, and S&P 500 Mean Reversion models, is slightly above fair value according to the Interest Rate model, and slightly below fair value according to the Margin Debt model.</p><p>3. Interest rates are likely to rise further, based on persistently high inflation and the Federal Reserve's latestcomments. Higher interest rates in the near future will make the market seem overvalued at present according to the Interest Rate model, adding further weight to the argument that the market is overvalued at the moment. Higher interest rates will also act like gravity on asset valuations, driving them lower.</p><p>When you combine weak growth with a lack of multiple expansion (and in fact likely multiple compression), very low dividend yields, and likely interest rate increases, there are no real catalysts to drive stock market returns.</p><h3>Implication #2: Volatility Will Likely Be Elevated For The Foreseeable Future</h3><p>That said, interest rates do remain historically cheap and there is still a lot of excess capital sloshing around in the global markets. As a result, there will still likely be plenty of dip buying, especially on any hints of inflation declining, the economy weathering the current headwinds better than expected, and/or the Federal Reserve beginning to change its hawkish stance. As the bulls and bears continue to duke it out in aggressive fashion, with bulls aggressively buying dips and bears aggressively selling rips on renewed fears of a recession and/or further interest rate hikes, volatility will likely remain elevated.</p><p>On top of that, with geopolitical risks mounting in East Asia, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe, there are plenty of potential further catalysts for sending stocks plunging lower at a minute's notice.</p><h3>Implication #3: A Market Crash Is Very Possible</h3><p>As already indicated in implication #2, a market crash is also very possible at the moment. The reasons for it are simple:</p><p>1. As already highlighted, valuations are already bloated, so a crash would not require a stark departure from historical valuation levels. In fact, a crash might be necessary to fully correct financial markets from all of the artificial stimulus from central bankers over the past decade.</p><p>2. There are numerous catalysts which could spark a market crash, and they seem more likely at the moment than at any time in recent memory: any number of geopolitical crises, ranging from a Chinese invasion of Taiwan, to the war in Europe going nuclear, to a major energy crisis if a war begins between Iran and Saudi Arabia, a massive cyber-attack that significantly disrupts the global economy, a major new pandemic or variant of COVID-19 emerging, or even possibly a major global recession.</p><h3>Investor Takeaway</h3><p>While these are certainly complicated, if not extremely challenging, times for investors trying to navigate the markets, we are remaining fully invested. However, we are keeping the following principles in mind to guide us with greater prudence during this period:</p><p>1. We are being highly selective by only investing in securities that appear to have a clear margin of safety, while keeping a small weighting in our most cyclical positions and overweighting our most defensive positions.</p><p>2. We are avoiding taking on any personal leverage through this period in order to minimize our risk of outsized losses in the event of a market crash and to give us the capacity to potentially create some dry powder to capitalize on a market crash.</p><p>3. We are also investing in securities that profit from elevated volatility as we believe that - even in a scenario where the markets do not experience a full-fledged crash - volatility levels will likely be above average for the foreseeable future due to the geopolitical and macroeconomic jitters that are gripping the markets with increasing frequency. As the chart below indicates, volatility as depicted by theVIXis up significantly from where it was before COVID-19 and is even up in 2022 relative to the second half of 2021.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/61315c652f099418782c73479f3dd50a\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"802\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>VIXdata by YCharts</p><p>For those who choose to continue investing in low-cost index funds like SPY, we are not bullish in the short-term, as - for the reasons outlined in this article - we expect lackluster economic growth, elevated valuations, rising interest rates, and the rising risks of a black swan event to suppress broad market total returns for the foreseeable future. As a result, we encourage investors to be more selective in the current environment than to blindly buy the broader market. At the same time, for those committed to passive investing over the long term, remaining fully invested with a practice of consistent long-term dollar cost averaging and prudent personal financial management is unlikely to deliver disappointing results over the course of decades. For that reason, we give the SPY a Hold rating right now.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Charlie Munger Predicted \"Considerable Trouble\" For Markets: SPY Implications</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\">\nCharlie Munger Predicted \"Considerable Trouble\" For Markets: SPY Implications\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-01 23:19 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4537755-charlie-munger-predicted-considerable-trouble-for-markets-spy-implications><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryEarlier this year, billionaire investor Charlie Munger predicted that the markets would face \"considerable trouble.\"We take a look at his prediction in light of recent macroeconomic ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4537755-charlie-munger-predicted-considerable-trouble-for-markets-spy-implications\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SPY":"ć ćŽ500ETF"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4537755-charlie-munger-predicted-considerable-trouble-for-markets-spy-implications","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1122895763","content_text":"SummaryEarlier this year, billionaire investor Charlie Munger predicted that the markets would face \"considerable trouble.\"We take a look at his prediction in light of recent macroeconomic developments and its implications for the S&P 500.We also share our approach to investing in the current environment.Billionaire investor Charlie Munger - Warren Buffett's partner at Berkshire Hathaway - recently opined that \"considerable trouble\" was coming for markets at the Daily Journal's (DJCO) annual meeting earlier this year, stating:What we're getting iswretched excess and danger for the country.

This means that it is almost overvalued, implying that the market is likely to experience lackluster, if not poor, returns for the foreseeable future. The SPY is overvalued according to the Yield Curve, Buffett Indicator, P/E Ratio, and S&P 500 Mean Reversion models, is slightly above fair value according to the Interest Rate model, and slightly below fair value according to the Margin Debt model.3. Interest rates are likely to rise further, based on persistently high inflation and the Federal Reserve's latestcomments. Higher interest rates in the near future will make the market seem overvalued at present according to the Interest Rate model, adding further weight to the argument that the market is overvalued at the moment. Higher interest rates will also act like gravity on asset valuations, driving them lower.When you combine weak growth with a lack of multiple expansion (and in fact likely multiple compression), very low dividend yields, and likely interest rate increases, there are no real catalysts to drive stock market returns.Implication #2: Volatility Will Likely Be Elevated For The Foreseeable FutureThat said, interest rates do remain historically cheap and there is still a lot of excess capital sloshing around in the global markets. As a result, there will still likely be plenty of dip buying, especially on any hints of inflation declining, the economy weathering the current headwinds better than expected, and/or the Federal Reserve beginning to change its hawkish stance. As the bulls and bears continue to duke it out in aggressive fashion, with bulls aggressively buying dips and bears aggressively selling rips on renewed fears of a recession and/or further interest rate hikes, volatility will likely remain elevated.On top of that, with geopolitical risks mounting in East Asia, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe, there are plenty of potential further catalysts for sending stocks plunging lower at a minute's notice.Implication #3: A Market Crash Is Very PossibleAs already indicated in implication #2, a market crash is also very possible at the moment. The reasons for it are simple:1. As already highlighted, valuations are already bloated, so a crash would not require a stark departure from historical valuation levels. In fact, a crash might be necessary to fully correct financial markets from all of the artificial stimulus from central bankers over the past decade.2. There are numerous catalysts which could spark a market crash, and they seem more likely at the moment than at any time in recent memory: any number of geopolitical crises, ranging from a Chinese invasion of Taiwan, to the war in Europe going nuclear, to a major energy crisis if a war begins between Iran and Saudi Arabia, a massive cyber-attack that significantly disrupts the global economy, a major new pandemic or variant of COVID-19 emerging, or even possibly a major global recession.Investor TakeawayWhile these are certainly complicated, if not extremely challenging, times for investors trying to navigate the markets, we are remaining fully invested. However, we are keeping the following principles in mind to guide us with greater prudence during this period:1. We are being highly selective by only investing in securities that appear to have a clear margin of safety, while keeping a small weighting in our most cyclical positions and overweighting our most defensive positions.2. We are avoiding taking on any personal leverage through this period in order to minimize our risk of outsized losses in the event of a market crash and to give us the capacity to potentially create some dry powder to capitalize on a market crash.3. We are also investing in securities that profit from elevated volatility as we believe that - even in a scenario where the markets do not experience a full-fledged crash - volatility levels will likely be above average for the foreseeable future due to the geopolitical and macroeconomic jitters that are gripping the markets with increasing frequency. As the chart below indicates, volatility as depicted by theVIXis up significantly from where it was before COVID-19 and is even up in 2022 relative to the second half of 2021.VIXdata by YChartsFor those who choose to continue investing in low-cost index funds like SPY, we are not bullish in the short-term, as - for the reasons outlined in this article - we expect lackluster economic growth, elevated valuations, rising interest rates, and the rising risks of a black swan event to suppress broad market total returns for the foreseeable future. As a result, we encourage investors to be more selective in the current environment than to blindly buy the broader market. At the same time, for those committed to passive investing over the long term, remaining fully invested with a practice of consistent long-term dollar cost averaging and prudent personal financial management is unlikely to deliver disappointing results over the course of decades. For that reason, we give the SPY a Hold rating right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":350,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9930591559,"gmtCreate":1661986937273,"gmtModify":1676536615808,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Solid earnings.

Cloud software businesses, though, are displaying strength. Big businesses currently favor projects with quick returns on investment, and shifting digital operations to the cloud delivers just those sorts of rapid benefits.</p><p>To wit, <b>Salesforce</b> and <b>ServiceNow(NOW)</b> both reported solid second-quarter earnings despite numerous challenges. However, one of these cloud stocks looks like the better buy right now.</p><h2>Salesforce: Enduring (but slowing) growth from a cloud pioneer</h2><p>Salesforce has a broad portfolio of software solutions that help its clients make the most of their customer data and transform their IT operations for the cloud. Through the first half of its fiscal 2023, revenue is up 23% year over year to $15.1 billion. Free cash flow is up 12% to $3.63 billion, giving it a margin of 24%.</p><p>Even in a period of macroeconomic uncertainty, Salesforce's massive toolbox is still winning over lots of new users. However, the company is headed for a significant slowdown in the back half of the fiscal year. Management recently downgraded its guidance to a forecast of just 17% revenue growth. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA.U\">Two</a> primary factors are to blame. First, the U.S. dollar's growing strength against foreign currencies lowers the value of international sales. And second, the growth bump that Salesforce accrued from its acquisition of digital workplace communications company Slack last summer (which is expected to contribute about $1.5 billion in sales, or just shy of 5% of Salesforce's overall revenue) is now over.</p><p>The biggest news in the quarterly update Salesforce delivered on Aug. 24, though, was the company's first-ever share repurchase program. The board of directors authorized buybacks totaling $10 billion. That amounts to about 5.8% of the company's current market cap. Shares currently trade for 31 times enterprise value to free cash flow.</p><h2>ServiceNow: A top bet on operational efficiency</h2><p>ServiceNow provides software development tools to build more efficient digital workflows -- for IT teams, for employees, and even for customer interactions with a business. Automating redundant processes (which saves money over time) is something businesses are willing to spend on right now. When the economy is slowing, cost-cutting initiatives tend to take the spotlight, and ServiceNow's solutions help in a big way.</p><p>ServiceNow's second-quarter financial report also shows its services are in high demand. Revenue was up 25% year over year in the first half of 2022 to $3.29 billion. Free cash flow rose a very healthy 27% to $1.05 billion (32% of revenue).</p><p>But ServiceNow, too, expects its expansion will slow in the back half of the year. Management is now guiding for full-year subscription revenue growth of 24% and a free cash flow profit margin of 30%. Previously, it was guiding for 26% and 31% growth on those metrics, respectively.</p><p>Despite management's slight downgrade of expectations, ServiceNow is proving it's a durable cloud technology business in good times and bad. The stock currently trades at an enterprise-value-to-free-cash-flow ratio of 45.</p><h2>Which is the better buy now?</h2><p>Salesforce has a long history of delivering double-digit-percentage annual revenue growth, and in the wake of its big acquisition of Slack, its profit margins are back on the rise. It also has an expansive list of services that organizations of all types need as they adapt their operations for a new digital era. Of these two companies, ServiceNow is growing faster and generating slightly higher profit margins. However, its stock price carries a higher valuation that reflects those things.</p><p>Thus, the real differentiator right at the moment could be Salesforce's share repurchase program. The deficiencies arising from currency exchange rate headwinds and other economic factors could be mitigated by a shrinking share count, which will boost its free cash flow per share. There's a lot to like about both of these cloud computing leaders, and I think both have their places in a well-diversified portfolio. But I think Salesforce stock is the slightly better buy at this juncture given its new plan to start returning excess cash to shareholders.</p></body></html>","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>Salesforce vs. ServiceNow: Which Is the Better Cloud Stock to Buy Right Now?</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\">\nSalesforce vs. ServiceNow: Which Is the Better Cloud Stock to Buy Right Now?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-30 09:48 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/29/salesforce-vs-servicenow-which-is-the-better-cloud/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The global economy is slowing down, and an epic run-up in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies is taking a bite out of the revenues and profits of multinational companies.

Free cash flow is up 12% to $3.63 billion, giving it a margin of 24%.Even in a period of macroeconomic uncertainty, Salesforce's massive toolbox is still winning over lots of new users. However, the company is headed for a significant slowdown in the back half of the fiscal year. Management recently downgraded its guidance to a forecast of just 17% revenue growth. Two primary factors are to blame. First, the U.S. dollar's growing strength against foreign currencies lowers the value of international sales. And second, the growth bump that Salesforce accrued from its acquisition of digital workplace communications company Slack last summer (which is expected to contribute about $1.5 billion in sales, or just shy of 5% of Salesforce's overall revenue) is now over.The biggest news in the quarterly update Salesforce delivered on Aug. 24, though, was the company's first-ever share repurchase program. The board of directors authorized buybacks totaling $10 billion. That amounts to about 5.8% of the company's current market cap. Shares currently trade for 31 times enterprise value to free cash flow.ServiceNow: A top bet on operational efficiencyServiceNow provides software development tools to build more efficient digital workflows -- for IT teams, for employees, and even for customer interactions with a business. Automating redundant processes (which saves money over time) is something businesses are willing to spend on right now. When the economy is slowing, cost-cutting initiatives tend to take the spotlight, and ServiceNow's solutions help in a big way.ServiceNow's second-quarter financial report also shows its services are in high demand. Revenue was up 25% year over year in the first half of 2022 to $3.29 billion. Free cash flow rose a very healthy 27% to $1.05 billion (32% of revenue).But ServiceNow, too, expects its expansion will slow in the back half of the year. Management is now guiding for full-year subscription revenue growth of 24% and a free cash flow profit margin of 30%. Previously, it was guiding for 26% and 31% growth on those metrics, respectively.Despite management's slight downgrade of expectations, ServiceNow is proving it's a durable cloud technology business in good times and bad. The stock currently trades at an enterprise-value-to-free-cash-flow ratio of 45.Which is the better buy now?Salesforce has a long history of delivering double-digit-percentage annual revenue growth, and in the wake of its big acquisition of Slack, its profit margins are back on the rise. It also has an expansive list of services that organizations of all types need as they adapt their operations for a new digital era. Of these two companies, ServiceNow is growing faster and generating slightly higher profit margins. However, its stock price carries a higher valuation that reflects those things.Thus, the real differentiator right at the moment could be Salesforce's share repurchase program. The deficiencies arising from currency exchange rate headwinds and other economic factors could be mitigated by a shrinking share count, which will boost its free cash flow per share. There's a lot to like about both of these cloud computing leaders, and I think both have their places in a well-diversified portfolio. But I think Salesforce stock is the slightly better buy at this juncture given its new plan to start returning excess cash to shareholders.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":156,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9997191210,"gmtCreate":1661754415732,"gmtModify":1676536573414,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Basing investment / trading decisions on Musk's tweets ?!?!

Further, management seemed to simply celebrate the fact that they were public and patting themselves on the back rather than digging in and getting to work as a âprove-itâ company.</p><p>Well, the company has really come around lately.

Consensus estimates call for 37% revenue growth this year, followed by 43%, 32% and and 30% growth in 2023, 2024 and 2025 respectively.</p><h2>Growth Stocks to Buy: Airbnb (ABNB)</h2><p>Lodging stocks are booming. Hyatt Hotels (NYSE:H), Marriott (NASDAQ:MAR), Expedia (NASDAQ:EXPE) and others are all pushing to new highs while the stock market continues to slog away at multi-month lows with robust volatility. Like the others, Airbnb has been performing incredibly well. However, itâs not at its highs like the rest of the group above.</p><p>Perhaps it wonât get there, but if the relative strength in this group is any indication, Airbnb stock can continue to push higher. Itâs one of the few growth stocks that are rallying on earnings rather than selling off and it also has a unique catalyst.</p><p>Travelers are looking to get out and about. Only some are looking at a return to normal and traveling to busy areas, while others are looking to get out of the hustle and bustle and are looking for retreat-type trips.</p><p>Either way, Airbnb is a winner in these scenarios and it shows in the stock price.</p><h2>Growth Stocks to Buy: Twilio (TWLO)</h2><p>Twilio bulls had a fast one pulled on them. After a 60% decline from the highs coming into earnings, a âfast oneâ is the last thing anyone wanted.</p><p>When Twilio reported earnings on Feb. 9, the stock initially rallied more than 25% in the after-hours session. In the regular-hours session on Feb. 10, the largest gain the stock boasted was just 15.6%, but by the time the session ended, Twilio was stock was up just 1.9%</p><p>Long story short? Investors are selling growth stocks on earnings. Weâre in a bear market and in those conditions, the trend isnât to buy the dips, itâs to sells the rips.</p><p>From the post-earnings highs, Twilio shares are down about 30%. For a company forecast to grow revenue 30% to 35% in each of the next three years, that seems rather ridiculous. Thatâs particularly true with the stock down 60% from the all-time high made about one year ago.</p><p>Shares trade around than seven times 2022 sales estimates. For what itâs worth, the company delivered a strong quarterly result earlier this month too. When it reported, it not only beat on earnings and revenue expectations, but guidance for next quarter came in well ahead of expectations.</p><p>Management expects revenue of $855 million to $865 million vs. consensus expectations of $803.84 million.</p><h2>Upstart Holdings (UPST)</h2><p>Upstart Holdings was one of the few growth stocks that didnât sell off on earnings. This company is in perhaps the best position to continue pushing higher and the reasoning is multifold.</p><p>For starters, the stock had a favorable reaction to earnings. While shares have come under some selling pressure from the recent highs, Upstart stock is still up after the report and itâs one of the few growth stocks to rally on earnings.</p><p>Second, earnings and revenue werenât just ahead of expectations, but revenue guidance for next quarter was well ahead of estimates too. Managementâs EBITDA forecast topped expectations as well.</p><p>The company also announced a $400 million share buyback program, which isnât insignificant given its ~$10 billion market capitalization.</p><p>Lastly, expectations call for strong long term growth. Estimates call for 67% revenue growth this year, 36% growth in 2023 and 42% growth in 2024. All the while this company is profitable and only driving its bottom line higher.</p><h2>Growth Stocks to Buy: Roku (ROKU)</h2><p>This pick is a bit controversial. Roku didnât burst higher on earnings like Upstart, nor did it fade from a nice post-earnings rally. Instead, it plunged 22% on Feb. 19 after disappointing results.</p><p>The company reported a top- and bottom-line miss, as Roku whiffed on expectations. Shares are now down 80% from its highs in the second quarter of 2021. Rokuâs rise and fall has been pretty stunning, even for investors with a tough stomach.</p><p>Supply chain issues weighed (and continue to weigh) on the company. As such, the company missed on revenue expectations, despite growing sales by more than 33% in the quarter.</p><p>Perhaps worse though, managementâs outlook for next quarter was below expectations, coming in at $720 million vs. $748.5 million. Managementâs EBITDA outlook was short of expectations too.</p><p>But the company has a reasonable explanation for its shortfall (again supply chain related), while average revenue per unit (ARPU), streaming hours and active account growth all came in with solid results.</p><p>I wonât sugarcoat it: The reaction to earnings was terrible.</p><p>However, one has to think there is long-term value in Roku starting to present itself given the enormous decline in the share price and the growing world of streaming video. Further, analysts still expect 35% revenue growth for the year (likely to be reduced to some degree after this earnings report) and 30% next year.</p><h2>Nu Holdings (NU)</h2><p>Last but not least we have Nu Holdings. Nu is perhaps the least well-known stock on this list despite it sporting a fairly large market cap. Currently, the company is worth $35 billion, which is the fourth-largest company on this list.</p><p>Headquartered in Brazil, this company is new to the U.S. markets after making its debut in December. Thatâs pretty poor timing in regards to how growth stocks are performing. However, it could lead to an opportunity.</p><p>Both Tiger Global and Warren Buffettâs Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A, BRK.B) have stakes in the company as of last quarter.</p><p>Currently operating near break-even results, Nu is expected to turn profitable in the years ahead, while revenue growth continues to barrel ahead. Analysts expect a four-fold increase in 2021 sales, followed by 73% growth in 2022, 49% in 2023 and 55% in 2024.</p><p>Given that growth, I donât think Nu should be ignored.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1606302653667","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>7 Red-Hot Growth Stocks That Could Be Headed to the Moon</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\">\n7 Red-Hot Growth Stocks That Could Be Headed to the Moon\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-02-27 07:23 GMT+8 <a href=https://investorplace.com/2022/02/7-red-hot-growth-stocks-that-could-be-headed-to-the-moon/><strong>investorplace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Among other areas of the market, I hone in on growth stocks and let me tell you: Itâs been a painful couple of months.

While many low-quality names have been thrashed for an entire year, many stocks stood strong.Not anymore.Just about every growth stock I can think of and scan for has felt the bear-market pain over the past few months. Some were able to outrun the selloff, hitting new highs in the fourth quarter. However, the selling pressure has caught up them now that the overall market has come under pressure as well.What happens to these stocks if the Nasdaq has a bear market of its own?I donât know, but itâs not out of the realm of possibilities that weâll find out. In any regard, for those that are dollar-cost averaging or just looking for a few good growth stocks to buy and hold, letâs look at some solid stocks:The Trade Desk (NASDAQ:TTD)Snap (NYSE:SNAP)Airbnb (NASDAQ:ABNB)Twilio (NYSE:TWLO)Upstart Holdings (NASDAQ:UPST)Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU)Nu Holdings (NYSE:NU)Growth Stocks to Buy: The Trade Desk (TTD)Itâs been a total annihilation in growth stocks, yet The Trade Desk is still standing. Shares are down âjustâ 29% from the high. While that sounds terrible â and normally, it is â itâs vastly better than many of its growth stock peers.Why? Because it continues to deliver strong results!When growth stocks were carving out new lows in mid-November, The Trade Desk was hitting new all-time highs.

Further, management seemed to simply celebrate the fact that they were public and patting themselves on the back rather than digging in and getting to work as a âprove-itâ company.Well, the company has really come around lately.

It operates a wonderful blend between being a wholesale apparel maker and a high-end athletic retailer. By running its own locations, as well as selling to other retailers, Nike diversifies its revenue and is able to drive incremental margin growth to its bottom line.</p><p>In a nutshell, it can drive sales at its own locations, while relying on the size of other retailers to generate revenue. But Nikeâs real crown jewel is its direct-to-consumer (DTC) business.</p><p>Referred to by the company as its DTC unit, this business is what allows Nike to drive significant margin expansion. Itâs also what allowed the company to recover more quickly than most apparel makers and apparel retailers in the early days of the novel coronavirus pandemic.</p><p>With its DTC business, Nike can sell right to its customers. In turn, that allows it to build better analytics and improve its target marketing. It also allows it to cut out the middleman. Last quarter,overall revenue increased 4.9%year-over-year (YOY). However, its DTC business climbed 17% on a currency-neutral basis. So, clearly, thatâs where the momentum is at.</p><p>Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL)<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/47861f1381d07e74ccba8ded13159044\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: rvlsoft / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG) is one of the best companies in the entire market, and there are three simple reasons why: Assets, growth and its balance sheet. Letâs go in that order.</p><p>The company commands a market capitalization of about $1.9 trillion, so of course, it has many assets. However, its main assets are Google.com and YouTube.com. Not only are these the two most popular websites in the world â akin to owning Boardwalk and Park Place in the game<i>Monopoly</i> â but they also boast strong growth.</p><p>That leads us to our second point. In combination with its cloud unit and other divisions, Alphabet continues to churn out impressive growth. Last quarter, revenue climbedmore than 32% YOY. This year, analysts expectsales growth of 16.7%. And for 2023, those estimates sit at 15.6%. Meanwhile, earnings growth forecasts are similar.</p><p>When it comes to free cash flow, Alphabet generated $67<i>billion</i>inFCF last year. That was up more than 55% from the prior year, while this figure grew more than 35% in each of the prior two years as well.</p><p>All of this growth is doing just one thing, which is growing the balance sheet. As of its latest quarter, Alphabet has $188 billion in current assets, almost $140 billion of which are in cash and short-term securities. The company also carries $14.8 billion in long-term debt, or a quarter of that when we exclude capitalized leases.</p><p>Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/364a2cb8d2afac18372e4783b1019bd1\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Source: WeDesing / Shutterstock.com</p><p>I refer to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a> as having one of the best business models in the world.

But not just blue-chip stocks of that era. Instead, I was after future blue chips; And thus, the Future Blue Chips idea had dawned on me.Since then, I have been hunting tomorrowâs shining stars of today, sniffing out the best stocks I can find with strong fundamentals, solid leadership and reasonable valuations.These are long-term, theme-oriented stocks that are relying on high-quality businesses and secular trends. Years ago â perhaps a decade â I would get people that would reach out to me and say, âHey! These are already well-known companies. Find something new, would ya!âWell, itâs hard to be a future blue chips stock if the company isnât already a good one. At the time, it included many of the names you see above, minus Nvidia unfortunately. On the plus side, the rest of these companies have continued to deliver the goods. And now, weâre going to go one-by-one through them to see why.Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: NikeSource: TY Lim / Shutterstock.comOne of the largest apparel companies in the world isNike(NYSE:NKE). It operates a wonderful blend between being a wholesale apparel maker and a high-end athletic retailer. By running its own locations, as well as selling to other retailers, Nike diversifies its revenue and is able to drive incremental margin growth to its bottom line.In a nutshell, it can drive sales at its own locations, while relying on the size of other retailers to generate revenue. But Nikeâs real crown jewel is its direct-to-consumer (DTC) business.Referred to by the company as its DTC unit, this business is what allows Nike to drive significant margin expansion. Itâs also what allowed the company to recover more quickly than most apparel makers and apparel retailers in the early days of the novel coronavirus pandemic.With its DTC business, Nike can sell right to its customers. In turn, that allows it to build better analytics and improve its target marketing. It also allows it to cut out the middleman. Last quarter,overall revenue increased 4.9%year-over-year (YOY). However, its DTC business climbed 17% on a currency-neutral basis. So, clearly, thatâs where the momentum is at.Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL)Source: rvlsoft / Shutterstock.comAlphabet (GOOGL, GOOG) is one of the best companies in the entire market, and there are three simple reasons why: Assets, growth and its balance sheet. Letâs go in that order.The company commands a market capitalization of about $1.9 trillion, so of course, it has many assets. However, its main assets are Google.com and YouTube.com. Not only are these the two most popular websites in the world â akin to owning Boardwalk and Park Place in the gameMonopoly â but they also boast strong growth.That leads us to our second point. In combination with its cloud unit and other divisions, Alphabet continues to churn out impressive growth. Last quarter, revenue climbedmore than 32% YOY. This year, analysts expectsales growth of 16.7%. And for 2023, those estimates sit at 15.6%. Meanwhile, earnings growth forecasts are similar.When it comes to free cash flow, Alphabet generated $67billioninFCF last year. That was up more than 55% from the prior year, while this figure grew more than 35% in each of the prior two years as well.All of this growth is doing just one thing, which is growing the balance sheet. As of its latest quarter, Alphabet has $188 billion in current assets, almost $140 billion of which are in cash and short-term securities. The company also carries $14.8 billion in long-term debt, or a quarter of that when we exclude capitalized leases.Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy: Apple Source: WeDesing / Shutterstock.comI refer to Apple as having one of the best business models in the world. It runs the razor/razor blade model, but at an incredible premium.The razor/razor blade model is premised on the idea of getting the razor into customerâs hands â even if that means giving it away at cost (or less) â so that they will continue to buy razors from you, which is the real money maker.Rather than give away its razors though â in this case, thatâs iPhones, iPads, Macs, etc. â Apple charges a hefty premium. They mark these devices up in price to the point where they alone generate an enormous business for Apple.So, what then is the razor blade portion of the business? Services.Last quarter, overall revenue grew 11%, whileServicesrevenuegrew almost 24%YOY. Not only is it outpacing the companyâs Products revenue in terms of growth, and overall revenue growth, but Appleâs Services unit is more than twice as profitable as its Products business. And that is the main catalyst that people need to understand.Visa Source: Kikinunchi / Shutterstock.comOutside of the tech space, these next two companies have been some of the best performers over the last decade. Visa and MasterCard run what I like to call a âtoll boothâ on transactions.Thereâs a secular trend thatâs been underway for years, as consumers transition from cash and check to credit and debit. Additionally, the rise of online and digital sales has only fueled this move, as consumers obviously find it easy to shop.Specifically, with these two businesses, investors have been quick to critique the valuation by pointing out that Visa stock trades at more than 17 times its trailing 12-month revenue. In the past, this valuation has also been an issue.Even during generous market periods, thatâs a rich valuation for many growth stocks.However, in those instances, investors arenât taking profits into account for the growth stocks, because many donât have any. And in the case of Visa, itâs incredibly profitable.Overall, the company sports gross profit margins of almost 80% and net profit margins of 51.6%.

In the fiscal first quarter of 2021 (the three months ended May 2, 2021) revenue increased 84% year over year to $5.66 billion, and adjusted earnings per share were up 106%. Ahead of the quarterly update, the semiconductor designer announced a 4-for-1 stock split. While stock splits don't have a material impact on a business's valuation, investors struck an upbeat tone on the news. Shares are now up 175.8% since the start of 2020.</p>\n<p>Stock split aside, there's reason to believe NVIDIA's run isn't over. Chip demand is sky-high right now, and the company is a leader on multiple high-growth technology fronts. Let's look at three reasons why this stock could continue its upward movement in 2021.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/50890f6ac7c37200838d6b704d94b843\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. New gaming GPU upgrades are just getting started</h2>\n<p>NVIDIA got its start with high-end video game graphics, and the industry remains the company's largest market. Gaming sales were $2.76 billion in Q1, up a whopping 106% year over year. The surge is driven by the RTX 30 series GPUs released late last year. These advanced chips come standard with ray tracing and AI-enhanced graphics capabilities to help players get the most out of their gaming experience.</p>\n<p>With such a boom in video game sales, it might seem like this leading segment at NVIDIA would be headed for a slowdown. That time hasn't arrived yet. The hardware upgrade cycle is really just getting started. NVIDIA just recently announced the first batch of laptops with RTX GPUs are coming out this summer, which makes its new chips available to tens of millions more gamers worldwide. And to better address video game market demand, NVIDIA has built restrictions in the RTX 30 series to prevent these graphics processors from going to cryptocurrency mining outfits (the new CMP chips custom designed for the crypto market are out and are expected to haul in $400 million in sales next quarter).</p>\n<p>NVIDIA said it expects revenue to be about $6.3 billion in the second quarter, up 63% from a year ago at the midpoint. While cryptocurrency chips are contributing to this torrid pace of growth, the gaming and data center markets represent the lion's share of expansion.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9378507973d9125501a4345d3317b24\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"367\"><span>New laptops featuring NVIDIA RTX 30 chips are coming soon. Image source: NVIDIA.</span></p>\n<h2>2. Complex data centers need new tech hardware</h2>\n<p>Speaking of data centers, this has quickly emerged as NVIDIA's second-largest vertical. Sales were $2.05 billion in Q1, up a more-than-respectable 79% year over year.</p>\n<p>Data centers operate behind the scenes but are critically important computing units in today's world. They operate the internet, mobile networks, the myriad of software services built and residing in them, and coordinate real-world activity like managing postal services and healthcare information. And in an increasingly sophisticated digital world, better hardware that is able to coordinate all this new data is needed. Lots of companies are adding GPUs to their data center designs as computing accelerators, or outright replacing older CPUs (central processing units) with faster and more energy-efficient GPUs. This is a space traditionally dominated by <b>Intel</b> (NASDAQ:INTC), but NVIDIA is gunning for the chip giant's haymaker. Last year, it unveiled a new data processing unit (DPU) and early in 2021 announced a CPU called Grace designed to pair with its GPUs and built from the ground up for modern data center applications like AI.</p>\n<p>Just like its gaming business, data centers are in the early stages of getting upgraded. CFO Colette Kress said on the earnings call that \"every industry is becoming a technology industry.\" There's no shortage of growth opportunity for NVIDIA, especially in cloud-based services and AI as companies unlock new capabilities and get more efficient in their operations using new chip tech.</p>\n<h2>3. NVIDIA is not just a hardware company anymore</h2>\n<p>NVIDIA of course makes money from the sale of its semiconductors. Licensing revenue from selling chip designs will get a big boost from the pending <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARMH\">ARM Holdings</a> acquisition (which Kress said is still on track to be completed by early 2022), but there's a lot more to NVIDIA's business model these days.</p>\n<p>Cloud-based recurring software-as-a-service (SaaS) revenue is a promising front for this chip company. Its auto industry platform is a prime example. Auto revenue was flat year over year in Q1 at $154 million as NVIDIA continues to exit commoditized vehicle infotainment hardware. But its Drive autonomous vehicle platform spans not just hardware but also software services, helping automakers and autonomous vehicle researchers advance self-driving and safety capabilities.</p>\n<p>Another example is Omniverse, a new collaborative software platform for designers and creators of all sorts.

In the fiscal first quarter of 2021 (the three months ended May 2, 2021) revenue increased 84% year over year to $5.66 billion, and adjusted earnings per share were up 106%. Ahead of the quarterly update, the semiconductor designer announced a 4-for-1 stock split. While stock splits don't have a material impact on a business's valuation, investors struck an upbeat tone on the news. Shares are now up 175.8% since the start of 2020.\nStock split aside, there's reason to believe NVIDIA's run isn't over. Chip demand is sky-high right now, and the company is a leader on multiple high-growth technology fronts. Let's look at three reasons why this stock could continue its upward movement in 2021.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. New gaming GPU upgrades are just getting started\nNVIDIA got its start with high-end video game graphics, and the industry remains the company's largest market. Gaming sales were $2.76 billion in Q1, up a whopping 106% year over year. The surge is driven by the RTX 30 series GPUs released late last year. These advanced chips come standard with ray tracing and AI-enhanced graphics capabilities to help players get the most out of their gaming experience.\nWith such a boom in video game sales, it might seem like this leading segment at NVIDIA would be headed for a slowdown. That time hasn't arrived yet. The hardware upgrade cycle is really just getting started. NVIDIA just recently announced the first batch of laptops with RTX GPUs are coming out this summer, which makes its new chips available to tens of millions more gamers worldwide. And to better address video game market demand, NVIDIA has built restrictions in the RTX 30 series to prevent these graphics processors from going to cryptocurrency mining outfits (the new CMP chips custom designed for the crypto market are out and are expected to haul in $400 million in sales next quarter).\nNVIDIA said it expects revenue to be about $6.3 billion in the second quarter, up 63% from a year ago at the midpoint. While cryptocurrency chips are contributing to this torrid pace of growth, the gaming and data center markets represent the lion's share of expansion.\nNew laptops featuring NVIDIA RTX 30 chips are coming soon. Image source: NVIDIA.\n2. Complex data centers need new tech hardware\nSpeaking of data centers, this has quickly emerged as NVIDIA's second-largest vertical. Sales were $2.05 billion in Q1, up a more-than-respectable 79% year over year.\nData centers operate behind the scenes but are critically important computing units in today's world. They operate the internet, mobile networks, the myriad of software services built and residing in them, and coordinate real-world activity like managing postal services and healthcare information. And in an increasingly sophisticated digital world, better hardware that is able to coordinate all this new data is needed. Lots of companies are adding GPUs to their data center designs as computing accelerators, or outright replacing older CPUs (central processing units) with faster and more energy-efficient GPUs. This is a space traditionally dominated by Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), but NVIDIA is gunning for the chip giant's haymaker. Last year, it unveiled a new data processing unit (DPU) and early in 2021 announced a CPU called Grace designed to pair with its GPUs and built from the ground up for modern data center applications like AI.\nJust like its gaming business, data centers are in the early stages of getting upgraded. CFO Colette Kress said on the earnings call that \"every industry is becoming a technology industry.\" There's no shortage of growth opportunity for NVIDIA, especially in cloud-based services and AI as companies unlock new capabilities and get more efficient in their operations using new chip tech.\n3. NVIDIA is not just a hardware company anymore\nNVIDIA of course makes money from the sale of its semiconductors. Licensing revenue from selling chip designs will get a big boost from the pending ARM Holdings acquisition (which Kress said is still on track to be completed by early 2022), but there's a lot more to NVIDIA's business model these days.\nCloud-based recurring software-as-a-service (SaaS) revenue is a promising front for this chip company. Its auto industry platform is a prime example. Auto revenue was flat year over year in Q1 at $154 million as NVIDIA continues to exit commoditized vehicle infotainment hardware. But its Drive autonomous vehicle platform spans not just hardware but also software services, helping automakers and autonomous vehicle researchers advance self-driving and safety capabilities.\nAnother example is Omniverse, a new collaborative software platform for designers and creators of all sorts. Omniverse has been in open beta but will have a commercial launch this summer for both individual users and enterprises. Kress said there have been over 17,000 downloads of the open beta so far, indicating robust demand for this SaaS-based business line in short order.\nSoftware sales will be a longer-term development for NVIDIA, but it nevertheless represents an exciting new outlet for this tech giant that pairs well with its leadership in GPUs. Innovation is firing on all cylinders at NVIDIA right now, and shares could continue their upward momentum through the back half of 2021 as growth continues at a rapid pace.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":36,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3570619054429964","authorId":"3570619054429964","name":"Evey77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8a042e238635d0f206ea5cc76045eb40","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3570619054429964","authorIdStr":"3570619054429964"},"content":"Some stocks are emo buys, not based on IV [Happy]","text":"Some stocks are emo buys, not based on IV [Happy]","html":"Some stocks are emo buys, not based on IV [Happy]"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013147847,"gmtCreate":1648694642438,"gmtModify":1676534381578,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Healthy pullback ","listText":"Healthy pullback ","text":"Healthy pullback","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013147847","repostId":"2223334013","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2223334013","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1648680663,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2223334013?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-31 06:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"US STOCKS-Dow, S&P Close Lower After 4 Days of Gains","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2223334013","media":"Reuters","summary":"U.S. bond market spurs recession worryPrivate payrolls increased by 455,000 jobs in MarchDow down 0.19%, S&P 500 down 0.63%, Nasdaq down 1.21%U.S. stocks fell on Wednesday, with the Dow and S&P 500 sn","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>U.S. bond market spurs recession worry</li><li>Private payrolls increased by 455,000 jobs in March</li><li>Dow down 0.19%, S&P 500 down 0.63%, Nasdaq down 1.21%</li></ul><p>U.S. stocks fell on Wednesday, with the Dow and S&P 500 snapping four-session winning streaks, on waning signs of progress for peace talks between Ukraine and Russia against a backdrop of a hawkish Federal Reserve curbing economic growth.</p><p>The S&P has rebounded more than 5% in March after starting the year with two straight monthly declines.

The analyst said the Tesla growth story is slowly taking hold and the company is on track to see unprecedented scale and capture 20% of the auto market.</p><p>Ferragu, however, cautioned that his estimate is neither a forecast nor an investment recommendation, leaving it open to investors to decide for themselves.</p><p>The analyst's 2030 look ahead assumes 20 million units of vehicle sales and an average selling price of $35,000, translating to vehicle sales of $700 billion. About $1.5 billion will likely come from insurance, $35 billion-$70 billion from full-self driving software and $250 billion from energy, with real AI providing option value.</p><p>The total 2030 revenue will likely come in at $1 trillion, the analyst estimates. Applying a multiple of 8-10 times on estimated sales, the company's valuation will gallop to about $10 trillion, he added.</p><p><b>Where Will This Leave Tesla Stock:</b> Tesla's outstanding share count is currently at 1.03 billion. If the share count remains unchanged, the per-share value of Tesla would be around $9,710.</p><p>Tesla detractors and skeptical investors may debate the credibility of Ferragu's model. Nevertheless, the company is poised to see superlative growth over the coming years.

The analyst said the Tesla growth story is slowly taking hold and the company is on track to see unprecedented scale and capture 20% of the auto market.Ferragu, however, cautioned that his estimate is neither a forecast nor an investment recommendation, leaving it open to investors to decide for themselves.The analyst's 2030 look ahead assumes 20 million units of vehicle sales and an average selling price of $35,000, translating to vehicle sales of $700 billion. About $1.5 billion will likely come from insurance, $35 billion-$70 billion from full-self driving software and $250 billion from energy, with real AI providing option value.The total 2030 revenue will likely come in at $1 trillion, the analyst estimates. Applying a multiple of 8-10 times on estimated sales, the company's valuation will gallop to about $10 trillion, he added.Where Will This Leave Tesla Stock: Tesla's outstanding share count is currently at 1.03 billion. If the share count remains unchanged, the per-share value of Tesla would be around $9,710.Tesla detractors and skeptical investors may debate the credibility of Ferragu's model. Nevertheless, the company is poised to see superlative growth over the coming years. Tesla, according to many sell-side analysts, is not able to keep pace with the surging demand for its vehicles.It may now have found a solution with the two more Gigas, in Berlin and Texas, coming online. Loup Fund analyst Gene Munster expects the company to deliver 1.8 million vehicles in 2023.Tesla closed Friday's session down 3% at $1,025.49.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":17,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9045309799,"gmtCreate":1656555454611,"gmtModify":1676535853350,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Detailed analysis Definitely an interesting company.

The recent market rally has helped propel the stock back to nearly $10. We believe over the next month or so the stock is going to pull back with the broader market, so there will be an opportunity to buy shares again, perhaps under $8. Generally speaking we think we are in a bear market rally the last few sessions and while it is great to get some relief, we think the averages have more to the downside, at least for a retest of the lows. Palantir stock will not be immune, and you will get a chance to come back into the name again at a better price. Frankly, our team has been recommending members buy high quality, earnings positive stocks, preferably with a dividend, while at least in the short-run, little-to-no earnings stocks are extremely speculative. Stocks like Palantir have been volatile, and that has been good for day trading. But, we think on the next sizable downdraft, investors can place their bets. Palantir is operating in a 21st century commodity: data. Governments and businesses alike can use data as a weapon to get an edge over the competition. And Palantir could be considered 'an arms dealer' of sorts for supplying the weapons of data analysis and decision making. The technology is game-changing, but there are investor concerns, including a murky growth outlook, as well as dilution issues which can harm the ability of the company to meaningfully grow earnings in a sustainable fashion. Still, we think that this is a name to buy low and tuck away for years.</p><p><b>Invest as part of a well-rounded portfolio</b></p><p>We teach people how to trade, and spot opportunity, but also discuss how to structure portfolios particularly in times of distress. And right now, this is a distressed market. You do not completely abandon growth/innovative tech. That is wrong. In our opinion there is lucrative opportunity in select names. Palantir is one of them, on the next down draft. We think you add in a tactical manner to a position like this on market weakness, and place it in a well-rounded portfolio. Do not obsess over the day-to-day changes in the stock. Rather, follow the quarterly filings, new contracts, management commentary, and trends in big data analytics. Do not invest money you will need in the next 5 years. Sounds simple but it is amazing how many people do not have a plan in place.</p><p><b>Palantir's model is strong, but there are profit woes</b></p><p>We absolutely love the operations here, but there are profit woes. Big data is a new commodity. What is interesting about Palantir is that it generates revenue from selling cloud-based subscriptions, as well as through the sale of subscriptions on the actual premises of customer facilities. These sales can be recurring revenue sources, and they include ongoing operations and maintenance services. It is possible that full contract values may never be realized for some reason or another. But it is key to understand that every time a new contract is signed, revenue is generally recognized over the contract term on a ratable basis. The company also offers professional services such as on-demand support, tailored platform configurations, training, and specialized forecasting. The kicker is that Palantir prices its products/services based on how much impact their data analytics can help a company, taking into account the size of the company and other factors in their pricing algorithms.</p><p>Palantir is seeing revenues grow tremendously, but the company also invests mightily in their own growth as these revenues increase dramatically. And as we know, such investment comes at the cost of profit. For years, Palantir may lose money or breakeven, while it establishes its dominance in the marketplace, and pulls in more and more of the total addressable market. Another issue to consider here is that like many innovative companies trying to attract and retain top tier talent, the company is addicted to stock based compensation. While it may seem like drops in a bucket, over time, the bucket could overflow, for lack of a better analogy. Dilution could continue so long that positive EPS becomes out of reach without future buybacks, even if overall net income widens and grows. This would keep the stock pinned. It is a risk. That said, operationally we are seeing some positive signs. Internal metrics improve year-after-year for Palantir, and for now ongoing growth will continue. This growth would likely lead to real and sustained profit growth, if not for dilution and of course investment in its own growth. The company's profitability is questionable, but the good news is that it is not hemorrhaging cash. In fact, Palantir is breaking even and making some money some quarters.</p><p>In the just reported quarter, performance was strong on the top line and ahead of consensus estimates. Total revenue grew 31% year-over-year to $446 million, beating estimates by almost $3 million. However, its profitability was lower than expected by $0.02, and worse, guidance was less than consensus. That crushed the stock.</p><p>Now what is frustrating from an investor standpoint is that Palantir has good margins. Positive margin momentum in a software company is strong. Adjusted gross margin was 81% in Q1 while contribution margin was 57%. First quarter adjusted income from operations, excluding stock-based compensation and related employer payroll taxes was $117 million, representing an adjusted operating margin of 26%. That is solid. Both segments are doing well.</p><p><b>Palantir's reporting segments both growing</b></p><p>One thing investors can watch for is news on newly awarded contracts, keeping in mind the revenue recognition schema employed by the company. There was a $50 million plus contract just signed with U.S. Space Systems, for example. So Palantir has commercial and government revenue, as noted previously. Make no mistake, the commercial revenue stream continues to grow at a significant pace. The government revenue growth is a bit slower, rising 16% in Q1, but as more and more governments learn the power of using data to streamline operations, funding, international relations, military decision making, and more, we expect this area to be a tremendous source of growth.</p><p>There are questions on the backlog, but the timing of new contracts comes in waves. Some months are slower, others see multiple contracts. It really depends. This adds to some uncertainty for investors, but you get the general idea. One thing that we learned in quarterly disclosures is that Palantir has expanded its sales team. The wave of new hires is working to secure new orders. The company added a total of 40 net new customers in Q1, and looks to add many more in 2022. The commercial revenue is really expanding at a strong pace, increasing 132% in year 2021, and in the first quarter was up more than 50% year-over-year. The key to remember is there will be substantial quarter-to-quarter variability.</p><p><b>Keep an eye on cash flow</b></p><p>There is a lot of mixed news to digest when considering investing here. While margins are good, profits per share stink. Further, the company lost $39 million in the quarter operationally, but adjusted income from operations was $117 million. That said, the company is still free cash flow positive. This is a very important point. You have to watch cash flows. It will fluctuate, but we want to see sustained positive cash flows, and perhaps more importantly, cash flows that grow over time. In Q1, adjusted free cash flow was $30 million for the quarter.</p><p><b>Forward view tough to pinpoint</b></p><p>The biggest concern right now is not valuation, and by most accounts, the stock is expensive at $10. Let it fall. In addition, stock-based compensation which is a risk, is not the largest risk. The broader market has been horrific, but that is still not the largest risk. Investors will get crushed if there is a meaningful slowdown in performance. While Palantir's technology should help governments and businesses alike operate more efficiently, and therefore more profitably, we could see reduced spending on services like this in the short-term if there is a recession. Some companies "could" turn to Palantir's solutions to save money, but we think that companies would be more than likely to shy away from big new data contracts in the short run in a recession. Furthermore, the Q2 guidance was less than stellar. We will find out in a few weeks how the company did, but management guided to a base case of $470 million in revenue. This was below consensus of $484 million. Unless something changes in the next few quarters, like a recession, Palantir continues to see 30% annual revenue growth through 2025. If costs can be kept under control, we could see profit growth potential.</p><p><b>Final thoughts here</b></p><p>The rally from the bottom has been quite strong frankly. We believe you must let the shares pull back. We give it a buy rating, but this is on the notion that shares pull back again in this bear market. We think you can get a much better price than $10 this summer. Scale into the name, so that you can have a profit on a modest bounce. The company operates with no debt and has nice positive free cash flow, and this is a key metric to watch going forward. There is a lot of promise here for future profits. The customer growth is impressive as is the revenue growth. Invest in data as a commodity. Palantir is a good choice for a small position in a well-rounded portfolio.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The Palantir Bottom</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\">\nThe Palantir Bottom\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-30 09:45 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4520774-the-palantir-bottom><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryWe have been bullish since the huge fall to the single-digits.It will take a serious leg down in the markets to break the bottom.We could see an approach to the lows when this bear market rally...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4520774-the-palantir-bottom\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PLTR":"Palantir Technologies Inc."},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4520774-the-palantir-bottom","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2247031339","content_text":"SummaryWe have been bullish since the huge fall to the single-digits.It will take a serious leg down in the markets to break the bottom.We could see an approach to the lows when this bear market rally ends, but we believe the stock remains a long-term buy in the single-digits.Data is a commodity.Dilution is the major risk here, preventing sustained profit growth.nespix/iStock via Getty ImagesPalantir Technologies Inc.

There was a $50 million plus contract just signed with U.S. Space Systems, for example. So Palantir has commercial and government revenue, as noted previously. Make no mistake, the commercial revenue stream continues to grow at a significant pace. The government revenue growth is a bit slower, rising 16% in Q1, but as more and more governments learn the power of using data to streamline operations, funding, international relations, military decision making, and more, we expect this area to be a tremendous source of growth.There are questions on the backlog, but the timing of new contracts comes in waves. Some months are slower, others see multiple contracts. It really depends. This adds to some uncertainty for investors, but you get the general idea. One thing that we learned in quarterly disclosures is that Palantir has expanded its sales team. The wave of new hires is working to secure new orders. The company added a total of 40 net new customers in Q1, and looks to add many more in 2022. The commercial revenue is really expanding at a strong pace, increasing 132% in year 2021, and in the first quarter was up more than 50% year-over-year. The key to remember is there will be substantial quarter-to-quarter variability.Keep an eye on cash flowThere is a lot of mixed news to digest when considering investing here. While margins are good, profits per share stink. Further, the company lost $39 million in the quarter operationally, but adjusted income from operations was $117 million. That said, the company is still free cash flow positive. This is a very important point. You have to watch cash flows. It will fluctuate, but we want to see sustained positive cash flows, and perhaps more importantly, cash flows that grow over time. In Q1, adjusted free cash flow was $30 million for the quarter.Forward view tough to pinpointThe biggest concern right now is not valuation, and by most accounts, the stock is expensive at $10. Let it fall. In addition, stock-based compensation which is a risk, is not the largest risk. The broader market has been horrific, but that is still not the largest risk. Investors will get crushed if there is a meaningful slowdown in performance. While Palantir's technology should help governments and businesses alike operate more efficiently, and therefore more profitably, we could see reduced spending on services like this in the short-term if there is a recession. Some companies \"could\" turn to Palantir's solutions to save money, but we think that companies would be more than likely to shy away from big new data contracts in the short run in a recession. Furthermore, the Q2 guidance was less than stellar. We will find out in a few weeks how the company did, but management guided to a base case of $470 million in revenue. This was below consensus of $484 million. Unless something changes in the next few quarters, like a recession, Palantir continues to see 30% annual revenue growth through 2025. If costs can be kept under control, we could see profit growth potential.Final thoughts hereThe rally from the bottom has been quite strong frankly. We believe you must let the shares pull back. We give it a buy rating, but this is on the notion that shares pull back again in this bear market. We think you can get a much better price than $10 this summer. Scale into the name, so that you can have a profit on a modest bounce. The company operates with no debt and has nice positive free cash flow, and this is a key metric to watch going forward. There is a lot of promise here for future profits. The customer growth is impressive as is the revenue growth. Invest in data as a commodity. Palantir is a good choice for a small position in a well-rounded portfolio.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":357,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9030041406,"gmtCreate":1645586396239,"gmtModify":1676534043222,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sounds

The rest of the FAANG stocks âApple,Amazon,NetflixandGoogle parent Alphabetâ have not broken through to their own since at least April.\nMichael Binger, president of Gradient Investments, says Facebookâs win streak is not over.\nâFacebook is continuing to be a buy for us. We own it I would add more if you donât own it here. Itâs the best consumer-driven internet play out there in my opinion. Theyâve got a great advertising platform, 18 to 20% growth for the next several years. Youâre getting that at a reasonable price,â Binger told CNBCâs âTrading Nationâ on Tuesday.\nFacebook is the second-best FAANG performer this year, behind Alphabet, rising 22%.\nBut, thatâs not the only stock in the bunch that Binger likes. He highlights Alphabet as one of his other top picks. On Alphabet, he says the company is a âleader of the packâ with its Google search and YouTube video platform.\nApple, too, is a buy for Binger after its sharp pullback. That stock has fallen 13% from a January peak.\nâI see Apple as a core holding, we own it, we love it and I think you could buy it right here on this pullback. The PE multiple has actually come down to the low-20s right now. So, I like Apple here,â he said.\nIn the same interview, Gina Sanchez, CEO of Chantico Global and chief market strategist at Lido Advisors, said Amazon looks to be one of the better picks of the bunch.\nâThis is where that fine nuance between growth and price leads you to growth-at-a-reasonable price,â Sanchez said. âAmazon, even though itâs probably one of the most highly priced of all of the FAANGs, has a more interesting road ahead because they had strong growth during the pandemic. Theyâre probably going to lock in those consumers, their cloud business is still growing dramatically, and so the roadmap for them is very good.â\nAmazon trades at 51.5 times forward earnings. Facebook, the cheapest of the bunch, trades with a multiple of less than 24 times.\nâWhen you look at these interesting stocks, Amazon seems fairly priced given that it has still significant growth to come,â she said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":306,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9998134696,"gmtCreate":1660955250018,"gmtModify":1676536428657,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"About time for a pullback!!","listText":"About time for a pullback!!","text":"About time for a pullback!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9998134696","repostId":"2260373492","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":88,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9028084909,"gmtCreate":1653117573901,"gmtModify":1676535227783,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Finally getting close to a good price to buy!

It obviously grew exponentially in the past two years, given the massive demand for personal devices due to the increased remote work/ study/ entertainment options during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, NVDA grew its revenues at a tremendous CAGR of 57.05%, while its net income rose even faster at a CAGR of 86.94%. The company also steadily improved its gross margins from 58.8% in FY2017 to 64.9% in FY2022.</p><p><b>NVDA 5Y Stock Price</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41f98282f6ea46ae8ad6b84c285f70dc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"229\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>As a result, it is evident that NVDA investors had benefited from its stellar growth, given that the stock had risen by 580% in the past two years, before the drastic moderation that occurred in late 2021.</p><p><b>NVDA 5Y EV/Revenue and P/E Valuations</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bb56f00646af22e85bd8a43914c1b14a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"228\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>S&P Capital IQ</span></p><p>However, we believe that the market correction is expected, given that NVDA was trading at ridiculous valuations at its peak, with EV/NTM Revenue of 28x and NTM P/E of 72.98x. That is way higher than Intel's (INTC) valuation of EV/NTM Revenue of 4.19x and NTM P/E of 15.47x in the past three years, and even AMD (AMD) at 10.59x and 65.39x, respectively. In hindsight, it is evident that NVDA has been highly (maybe over) valued, given its exposure to multiple market segments, such as AI technology, autonomous EVs, cloud computing servers, cryptocurrency, and metaverse, amongst others.</p><p>Nonetheless, we may also see a short-term impact, given Meta's (FB) slowing investments in the Reality Labs ( metaverse),reduced demand for GPUs from the crypto mining, and impacted auto production outputs from China's Zero Covid Policy. As a result, given the uncertainties, we expect the pain to continue for a while longer as the market consolidates in the next few quarters.</p><p>In the meantime, we encourage you to read our previous article on NVDA, which would help you better understand its market opportunities in the AI technology, automotive, and data center industries.</p><p><b>NVDA Is Still Investing In Growth, Though We See Short-Term Impacts</b></p><p><b>NVDA Cash/ Equivalents, FCF, and FCF Margins</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fdb6487d84c744bc4e43411a3930b4d1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>S&P Capital IQ</span></p><p>Nonetheless, NVDA has been an excellent Free Cash Flow (FCF) generator, while reporting its record-breaking FCF of $8.13B and FCF margins of 30.2% in FY2022. The company also ended the year with a decent $1.99B of cash and equivalents, which will prove helpful for its expanding R&D expenses at an average of 21.5% to its annual revenues in the past five years.</p><p><b>NVDA R&D Expenses and % to Revenue</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d2295ab78fcdb724f700193b47538ade\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>S&P Capital IQ</span></p><p>Assuming that NVDA continues its reinvestments, we may expect the company to spend up to $7.4B in R&D expenses for FY2023. As an investor myself, I believe that high-growth tech companies, such as NVDA, should build up their future capabilities and product innovations, to keep their advantage in the highly competitive semiconductor industry moving forward. Nonetheless, the risks are also inherent that many companies may slow down their Capex investments in the next few quarters, given the impending recession and rising interest rates. Consequently, NVDA may also reduce its R&D expenses for the short term, given the potential deceleration in revenue growth.</p><p><b>NVDA Projected Revenue and Net Income</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d2badc1948a2e2ab65b118973f20c6a4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>S&P Capital IQ</span></p><p>Over the next three years, NVDA is expected to report impressive revenue and net income growth at a CAGR of 18.99% and 27.19%, respectively. For FY2023, consensus estimates that the company will report revenues of $34.77B and a net income of $14.39B, representing remarkable YoY growth of 29.2% and 47.5%, respectively.</p><p>Investors will be looking closely at NVDA's FQ1'23 performance, in which it had guided for revenues of $8.1B and gross margins of 65.2%. Assuming that the company successfully smashed its own and consensus estimates of $8.09B, we can be sure of a short-term recovery. However, it is also important to note that NVDA is expected to record a one-time write-off worth $1.36B for the quarter, due to the collapse of the ARM acquisition. In addition, given the quarter's exposure to the prolonged lockdowns in China, NVDA's revenue may also be impacted negatively. As a result, we expect a mixed FQ1'23 performance, potentially leading to a further decline in its stock performance. We shall see.</p><p><b>So, Is NVDA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?</b></p><p>NVDA is currently trading at an EV/NTM Revenue of 11.93x, and NTM P/E of 30x, lower than its 5Y mean of 13.34x and 39.91x, respectively. The stock is also trading at $171.24 on 19 May 2022, down 50% from 52 weeks high of $346.47. Given the recent market pessimism, there is a likelihood that the stock may retrace further below its 52 weeks low of $135.43 in the next few days, before recovering upon a positive catalyst, namely its FQ1'23 earnings call on 25 May 2022.</p><p>Even then, the NVDA stock could potentially remain stagnant post-earnings, similar to its peer, AMD. The latter had reported stellar FQ1'22 earnings, while also raising its FY2022 guidance. In response, the stock rose by 9% from $91.13 to $99.42 on 3 May 2022, before drifting sideways for the next two weeks to reach $96.67 on 19 May 2022. We can be sure that if such an upbeat earnings call had occurred during the heights of the pandemic, AMD would have seen a more pronounced growth in valuation and stock price, similar to the 25% growth after FQ3'21 earnings and 15% growth after FQ2'21 earnings. As a result, interested tech investors must be aware that we are in the midst of maximum pain, significantly worsened by the cryptocurrency winter, the ongoing Ukraine war, and China's Zero Covid Policy.</p><p>Given the uncertainties and reasons listed above, we may expect softer FQ2'23 guidance from NVDA's management as well. Though the stock may seem an attractive buy at its current "undervaluation," given its growth potential and promising pipeline, we would encourage prudence for now. We expect a more attractive entry point moving forward, after more clarity from its FQ1'23 earnings call. Patient investors will be awarded.</p><p>Therefore, we <i>rate NVDA stock as a Hold for now.</i></p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Nvidia: Ridiculous Times Indeed</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\">\nNvidia: Ridiculous Times Indeed\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-05-22 12:00 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4513449-nvidia-ridiculous-times-indeed><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryA friendly reminder that Nvidia will be reporting FQ1'23 earnings on 25 May 2022.In light of macro issues and the collapse of the cryptocurrency market, we expect short-term pain ahead.As a ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4513449-nvidia-ridiculous-times-indeed\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NVDA":"čąäźčžž"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4513449-nvidia-ridiculous-times-indeed","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2237028702","content_text":"SummaryA friendly reminder that Nvidia will be reporting FQ1'23 earnings on 25 May 2022.In light of macro issues and the collapse of the cryptocurrency market, we expect short-term pain ahead.As a result, we encourage patience for NVDA investors for now, given the recent market consolidation.Diamond Dogs/iStock via Getty ImagesInvestment ThesisNvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is expected to report earnings for FQ1'23 on 25 May 2022.

As a result, NVDA grew its revenues at a tremendous CAGR of 57.05%, while its net income rose even faster at a CAGR of 86.94%. The company also steadily improved its gross margins from 58.8% in FY2017 to 64.9% in FY2022.NVDA 5Y Stock PriceSeeking AlphaAs a result, it is evident that NVDA investors had benefited from its stellar growth, given that the stock had risen by 580% in the past two years, before the drastic moderation that occurred in late 2021.NVDA 5Y EV/Revenue and P/E ValuationsS&P Capital IQHowever, we believe that the market correction is expected, given that NVDA was trading at ridiculous valuations at its peak, with EV/NTM Revenue of 28x and NTM P/E of 72.98x. That is way higher than Intel's (INTC) valuation of EV/NTM Revenue of 4.19x and NTM P/E of 15.47x in the past three years, and even AMD (AMD) at 10.59x and 65.39x, respectively. In hindsight, it is evident that NVDA has been highly (maybe over) valued, given its exposure to multiple market segments, such as AI technology, autonomous EVs, cloud computing servers, cryptocurrency, and metaverse, amongst others.Nonetheless, we may also see a short-term impact, given Meta's (FB) slowing investments in the Reality Labs ( metaverse),reduced demand for GPUs from the crypto mining, and impacted auto production outputs from China's Zero Covid Policy. As a result, given the uncertainties, we expect the pain to continue for a while longer as the market consolidates in the next few quarters.In the meantime, we encourage you to read our previous article on NVDA, which would help you better understand its market opportunities in the AI technology, automotive, and data center industries.NVDA Is Still Investing In Growth, Though We See Short-Term ImpactsNVDA Cash/ Equivalents, FCF, and FCF MarginsS&P Capital IQNonetheless, NVDA has been an excellent Free Cash Flow (FCF) generator, while reporting its record-breaking FCF of $8.13B and FCF margins of 30.2% in FY2022. The company also ended the year with a decent $1.99B of cash and equivalents, which will prove helpful for its expanding R&D expenses at an average of 21.5% to its annual revenues in the past five years.NVDA R&D Expenses and % to RevenueS&P Capital IQAssuming that NVDA continues its reinvestments, we may expect the company to spend up to $7.4B in R&D expenses for FY2023. As an investor myself, I believe that high-growth tech companies, such as NVDA, should build up their future capabilities and product innovations, to keep their advantage in the highly competitive semiconductor industry moving forward. Nonetheless, the risks are also inherent that many companies may slow down their Capex investments in the next few quarters, given the impending recession and rising interest rates. Consequently, NVDA may also reduce its R&D expenses for the short term, given the potential deceleration in revenue growth.NVDA Projected Revenue and Net IncomeS&P Capital IQOver the next three years, NVDA is expected to report impressive revenue and net income growth at a CAGR of 18.99% and 27.19%, respectively. For FY2023, consensus estimates that the company will report revenues of $34.77B and a net income of $14.39B, representing remarkable YoY growth of 29.2% and 47.5%, respectively.Investors will be looking closely at NVDA's FQ1'23 performance, in which it had guided for revenues of $8.1B and gross margins of 65.2%. Assuming that the company successfully smashed its own and consensus estimates of $8.09B, we can be sure of a short-term recovery. However, it is also important to note that NVDA is expected to record a one-time write-off worth $1.36B for the quarter, due to the collapse of the ARM acquisition. In addition, given the quarter's exposure to the prolonged lockdowns in China, NVDA's revenue may also be impacted negatively. As a result, we expect a mixed FQ1'23 performance, potentially leading to a further decline in its stock performance. We shall see.So, Is NVDA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?NVDA is currently trading at an EV/NTM Revenue of 11.93x, and NTM P/E of 30x, lower than its 5Y mean of 13.34x and 39.91x, respectively. The stock is also trading at $171.24 on 19 May 2022, down 50% from 52 weeks high of $346.47. Given the recent market pessimism, there is a likelihood that the stock may retrace further below its 52 weeks low of $135.43 in the next few days, before recovering upon a positive catalyst, namely its FQ1'23 earnings call on 25 May 2022.Even then, the NVDA stock could potentially remain stagnant post-earnings, similar to its peer, AMD. The latter had reported stellar FQ1'22 earnings, while also raising its FY2022 guidance. In response, the stock rose by 9% from $91.13 to $99.42 on 3 May 2022, before drifting sideways for the next two weeks to reach $96.67 on 19 May 2022. We can be sure that if such an upbeat earnings call had occurred during the heights of the pandemic, AMD would have seen a more pronounced growth in valuation and stock price, similar to the 25% growth after FQ3'21 earnings and 15% growth after FQ2'21 earnings. As a result, interested tech investors must be aware that we are in the midst of maximum pain, significantly worsened by the cryptocurrency winter, the ongoing Ukraine war, and China's Zero Covid Policy.Given the uncertainties and reasons listed above, we may expect softer FQ2'23 guidance from NVDA's management as well. Though the stock may seem an attractive buy at its current \"undervaluation,\" given its growth potential and promising pipeline, we would encourage prudence for now. We expect a more attractive entry point moving forward, after more clarity from its FQ1'23 earnings call. Patient investors will be awarded.Therefore, we rate NVDA stock as a Hold for now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":334,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9064293829,"gmtCreate":1652322615561,"gmtModify":1676535078338,"author":{"id":"3565944798085236","authorId":"3565944798085236","name":"ET77","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c73ac2c436c2e43d9b78a2c52d24cb7","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3565944798085236","authorIdStr":"3565944798085236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Time to buy when stock is not favoured!

The market reaction indicates that the market has lost its mind and I am buying more shares of Palantir!</p><p><b>Palantir Q1'22 earnings card</b></p><p>The data analytics company reported solid top line growth of 31% year over year to $446.4M in the first-quarter. Palantir guided for Q1'22 revenues of $443M in revenues, so the company beat its guidance by $3.4M. Government revenues were $241.8M, showing 16% year over year. Commercial revenues, a bright spot for growth for Palantir in recent quarters, especially in the U.S. commercial business, surged 54% year over year to $204.6M.</p><p>The commercial business continued to show a lot of promise in the first-quarter. While government revenue growth decelerated, the commercial business saw continual acceleration. Palantir's commercial revenue growth accelerated to 54% in Q1'22, with growth being chiefly driven by Palantir's U.S. commercial business. The private enterprise market is becoming increasingly important for Palantir, as the growth rates compiled in the table below show.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3e0b45b349b3b93b860b8cda8f6f166a\" tg-width=\"613\" tg-height=\"225\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><b>Strong customer acquisition and monetization</b></p><p>A key theme for Palantir in FY 2021 has been improving customer acquisition, which is a theme that is still highly relevant for the company. The data analytics firm added 40 new customers (net) to its client roster in the first-quarter, showing growth of 17% quarter over quarter and Palantir ended Q1'22 with 277 paying clients on its books. Once again, customer acquisition was especially strong in the commercial business where Palantir signed on 37 new customers just in the last quarter.</p><p>Equally important, Palantir continues to monetize its top customers better. Palantir generated 24% year over year growth in average revenue per top 20 customer, indicating that customers are willing to increase their spending on Palantir's products and services. The average top customers spend an average of $45M on Palantir's software solutions in Q1'22.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ffeb164b88554a7a89a10a1cbe727592\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"604\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir</p><p>Another way to look at Palantir's customer monetization is the net dollar retention rate/NDRR which in the first-quarter was 124%. Net dollar retention rates measure organic revenue growth from the same pool of customers, from one period to the next. Palantir's net dollar retention rate in Q4'21 was 131%, so the firm saw a quarter over quarter decline in its NDRR. But as long as net dollar retention rates stay above 100%, Palantir is growing its top line organically.</p><p><b>Palantir's first-quarter free cash flow disappoints</b></p><p>I will take the blame for my Q1'22 free cash flow estimate that was off by a large margin. I expected Palantir to generate more than $100M in Q1'22 free cash flow due to accelerating momentum in the U.S. commercial business and strong customer acquisition rates. Palantir's actual free cash flow was just $29.8M which calculates to a disappointing free cash flow margin of 7%. Much lower free cash flow than expected and a slightly weaker revenue outlook for Q2'22 are likely the reasons behind Palantir's 21% plunge on Monday.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a258b5641f2600ae714423840a8d9b84\" tg-width=\"961\" tg-height=\"264\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir</p><p><b>Slowing revenue growth?</b></p><p>Citing "developing geopolitical events", Palantir guided for Q2'22 revenues of $470M, which indicates 5% quarter over quarter growth. However, the guidance also implies just 25% growth year over year which marks a deceleration from the 30% growth rate that investors expected. Palantir, however, reaffirmed its 30% long term annual revenue growth goal. I don't believe investors have to worry about slowing top line growth right now. The firm said that it sees upside to its revenue guidance and Palantir likely is guiding carefully for the next quarter.</p><p><b>Shares of Palantir are currently deeply discounted</b></p><p>The 21% drawdown in pricing on Monday indicates to me that the market has lost its mind and the firm's commercial growth prospects are not evaluated rationally. Palantir made significant progress in the first-quarter regarding customer acquisition and monetization, especially in the U.S. commercial segment. For those reasons, I believe the market misjudges the earnings report and undervalues Palantir's prospects in the data analytics business.</p><p>Shares of Palantir are currently valued at a P-S ratio of 5.9 X, based off of $2.6B in expected revenues in FY 2023. Palantir's P-S ratio was almost five times higher in FY 2021.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0be0a4030d425ed2485f08a8b3d86e1f\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p><b>Risks with Palantir</b></p><p>There are a few risks with Palantir that refer to the company's high stock-based compensation and slowing top line growth. Palantir is remunerating executives with stock and options which results in shareholder dilution. The number of Palantir's outstanding shares increased 10% year over year in Q1'22 to 2.05B and this dilution is a problem for shareholders considering that the firm is currently not profitable.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a4e561af5783acd47c9f5f0229c0f3b9\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"250\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Palantir</p><p>The other big risk I see with Palantir is the market environment.

Remember, Apple saw substantial sales pull forward beyond smartphones, with Macs and iPad sales jumping to record sales levels for products struggling in previous periods to even grow.</p><p>In total, sales surged in FY21 by a massive $91 billion to reach $366 billion. Historically, Apple has seen iPhone cycles pull forward demand, and the 5G iPhone released at the end of 2020 was such a scenario.</p><p>The combined Mac and iPad revenue used for WFM and virtual school saw revenues surge from $47 billion in FY19 to $67 billion during FY21. Mac revenues likely saw a small boost from new M1 chips pushing up demand, but sales were a very strong $9 billion above FY19 levels for a company with no growth in the category going on 5 years.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ebe15df70a5e3120a2a48328f7ba77e7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"382\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>sixcolors</span></p><p>iPad revenue saw the biggest boost likely due to the demand to supplement virtual school demand for people lacking enough PCs at home. The category had seen demand plunge from FY13 peaks at $31 billion to only see Covid pull forward and push total sales to a record $32 billion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/94eeac22a428aa50b5350c615b9968b0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"352\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>sixcolors</span></p><p>Other areas such as Services won't see any giveback, but the company faces headwinds in demand for Macs and iPads on top of potential flattish sales for iPhones. Any slowdown expectations hasn't actually been embraced by the stock market yet.</p><p>The chip market isn't completely falling apart as the automotive market still can't meet demand and the high-performance computing and IoT sectors are riding trends beyond Covid pull forwards. After all, TSMC still can't fully meet chip demand.</p><p><b>Elevated Risks</b></p><p>The risk isn't that Apple misses consensus analyst targets, but rather that the tech giant actually matches current weak growth targets. Most readers are probably tired of hearing this point, but nobody actually expected the tech giant to record fast growth over the next 4 years.</p><p>The highest forecasted growth rates through FY25 is the 8.2% rate this fiscal year. The quarterly growth rates are set to dip to the 5% to 7% range for the next few years with Apple likely reporting the last double-digit growth in FQ1'22.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/786346e421b42c4a3b1e1d4307bff8de\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"124\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>SA earnings estimates</span></p><p>In essence, Apple analysts didn't expect fast growth and the company only matching analyst estimates won't warrant the stock still trading at ~28x EPS estimates. The trend over the last month has been revenue estimates actually trending lower. The exact opposite of expectations has occurred after Apple reported a blowout December quarter where EPS grew a surprising 25%.</p><p>JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee just cut earnings estimates due to weak iPhone demand led by disappointing SE sales. The analyst even suggests high-end smartphone and laptop demand remains strong, but Mr. Chatterjee had to cut FY22 targets anyway.</p><p>Remember, the key is that demand for existing products surged during Covid shutdowns, while the exciting new products pushing the stock up the last year won't materially add to revenues for years. The AR/VR device isn't likely to reach the market until FY23, and AVs have an even more questionable future, with sales not set to materially impact numbers until possibly FY26, at the earliest.</p><p><b>Takeaway</b></p><p>The key investor takeaway is that Apple is starting to face an increasingly more difficult consumer demand environment and the stock hasn't corrected. The tech giant still trades at 28x EPS targets despite meager forecasted growth rates that analysts are starting to actually cut.</p><p>Investors still have the time to sell Apple at the top unlike just about any other tech stock.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Apple: Cracks Appearing?</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\">\nApple: Cracks Appearing?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-12 11:25 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4500763-apple-cracks-appearing><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryApple is starting to face cracks in consumer demand for smartphones and computers.The market continues to miss that analysts only forecast slow growth for the years ahead, and analysts are ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4500763-apple-cracks-appearing\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"čšć"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4500763-apple-cracks-appearing","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1166754456","content_text":"SummaryApple is starting to face cracks in consumer demand for smartphones and computers.The market continues to miss that analysts only forecast slow growth for the years ahead, and analysts are starting to cut those meager growth targets.The stock remains far too expensive at 28x EPS targets while being one of the few tech stocks still trading at all-time highs.Richard Villalonundefined undefined/iStock via Getty ImagesApple (NASDAQ:AAPL) still trades near all-time highs, yet logical signs of cracks are starting to appear to the business facade.

Historically, Apple has seen iPhone cycles pull forward demand, and the 5G iPhone released at the end of 2020 was such a scenario.The combined Mac and iPad revenue used for WFM and virtual school saw revenues surge from $47 billion in FY19 to $67 billion during FY21. Mac revenues likely saw a small boost from new M1 chips pushing up demand, but sales were a very strong $9 billion above FY19 levels for a company with no growth in the category going on 5 years.sixcolorsiPad revenue saw the biggest boost likely due to the demand to supplement virtual school demand for people lacking enough PCs at home. The category had seen demand plunge from FY13 peaks at $31 billion to only see Covid pull forward and push total sales to a record $32 billion.sixcolorsOther areas such as Services won't see any giveback, but the company faces headwinds in demand for Macs and iPads on top of potential flattish sales for iPhones. Any slowdown expectations hasn't actually been embraced by the stock market yet.The chip market isn't completely falling apart as the automotive market still can't meet demand and the high-performance computing and IoT sectors are riding trends beyond Covid pull forwards. After all, TSMC still can't fully meet chip demand.Elevated RisksThe risk isn't that Apple misses consensus analyst targets, but rather that the tech giant actually matches current weak growth targets. Most readers are probably tired of hearing this point, but nobody actually expected the tech giant to record fast growth over the next 4 years.The highest forecasted growth rates through FY25 is the 8.2% rate this fiscal year. The quarterly growth rates are set to dip to the 5% to 7% range for the next few years with Apple likely reporting the last double-digit growth in FQ1'22.SA earnings estimatesIn essence, Apple analysts didn't expect fast growth and the company only matching analyst estimates won't warrant the stock still trading at ~28x EPS estimates. The trend over the last month has been revenue estimates actually trending lower. The exact opposite of expectations has occurred after Apple reported a blowout December quarter where EPS grew a surprising 25%.JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee just cut earnings estimates due to weak iPhone demand led by disappointing SE sales. The analyst even suggests high-end smartphone and laptop demand remains strong, but Mr. Chatterjee had to cut FY22 targets anyway.Remember, the key is that demand for existing products surged during Covid shutdowns, while the exciting new products pushing the stock up the last year won't materially add to revenues for years. The AR/VR device isn't likely to reach the market until FY23, and AVs have an even more questionable future, with sales not set to materially impact numbers until possibly FY26, at the earliest.TakeawayThe key investor takeaway is that Apple is starting to face an increasingly more difficult consumer demand environment and the stock hasn't corrected. The tech giant still trades at 28x EPS targets despite meager forecasted growth rates that analysts are starting to actually cut.Investors still have the time to sell Apple at the top unlike just about any other tech stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":45,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
