Street","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2151526974","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Analysts' high-water price targets imply some serious gains for these companies.","content":"<p>Despite the stock market hitting seemingly <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> new high after another since the year began, Wall Street still sees value in equities. That's because historically low lending rates and a rebounding U.S. and global economy bode well for the growth stocks that have led the market higher.</p>\n<p>But growth isn't the only category analysts believe will outperform. Small-cap stocks -- companies with market caps ranging from $300 million to as high as $2 billion -- were absolutely pummeled during the coronavirus crash and now appear set to thrive. Based on the highest Wall Street price target for each of the following small-cap stocks, implied upside ranging from 158% to as much as 329% may await.</p>\n<h2>Vaxart: Implied upside of 158%</h2>\n<p>The first tiny tot that Wall Street appears to be really excited about is clinical-stage biotech stock <b>Vaxart</b> (NASDAQ:VXRT). A little over a month ago, analyst Yasmeen Rahimi at Piper Sander placed an $18 price target and an overweight rating on Vaxart. Based on its $6.99 closing price on July 12, we're talking about roughly 158% in implied upside over the next year.</p>\n<p>For Rahimi, the selling point on Vaxart is the company's Vector-Adjuvant-Antigen Standardized Technology, or VAAST platform. This proprietary oral vaccine platform is deemed relatively low risk by Rahimi given the amount of clinical data readily available. Specifically, VAAST is designed to activate systemic and mucosal immunity in the nose, lungs, intestines, and mouth to help fight against airborne viruses, such as influenza and norovirus.</p>\n<p>But it's not norovirus that's put Vaxart on the map in 2021. That honor goes to VXA-CoV2-1, the company's clinical-stage coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) candidate. Vaxart's experimental treatment is unique in that it's a pill, not an injection. A pill would likely result in higher vaccination rates, and it would certainly be easier from a distribution and administration standpoint.</p>\n<p>Back on May 3, Vaxart released data from its phase 1 study involving VXA-CoV2-1, which showed demonstrable CD8 T-cell responses. While it was able to generate relatively impressive immune responses, the company's pill didn't produce high levels of neutralizing antibodies in trial participants, which diverges from what we've seen following traditional COVID-19 injections.</p>\n<p>Though Vaxart may have a promising pathway to treat norovirus, it has a steep hill to climb if it's to become relevant in the COVID-19 treatment space. It's probably a bit early to pass judgment either way, but Rahimi's price target is potentially a bit too aggressive for a clinical-stage drug developer.</p>\n<h2>Columbia Care: Implied upside of 180%</h2>\n<p>Wall Street is also exceptionally bullish on the U.S. cannabis industry, with most multistate operators expected to fly. But one marijuana stock with particularly high upside, according to the high-water price target on Wall Street of more than $15 a share, is <b>Columbia Care</b> (OTC:CCHWF). If Wall Street's most aggressive price target comes to fruition, Columbia Care's shareholders could be reveling in a 180% gain over the coming 12 months.</p>\n<p>Columbia Care finds itself perfectly set up to take advantage of a rapidly growing cannabis market in the U.S. In total, 36 states have waved the green flag on medical weed, with half of those states legalizing consumption and/or adult-use sales. With Columbia Care primarily focused on serving medical pot customers for years, it was a pretty seamless transition to also servicing a larger pool of recreational weed clients.</p>\n<p>Although the company is generating healthy growth from its existing dispensaries -- 60% same-store sales growth in the first quarter from retail locations open in Q1 2020 -- its core strategy has involved making strategic acquisitions. Last month, the company closed a $240 million deal to acquire Green Leaf Medical, which added operational and in-development dispensaries in four states, as well as close to 400,000 square feet of cultivation and production capacity.</p>\n<p>Additionally, the purchase of The Green Solution in September 2020 stood out, as it allowed Columbia Care to gobble up Colorado's largest vertically integrated cannabis operator. Colorado sports the second-highest annual weed sales in the U.S., behind only California.</p>\n<p>The last thing to take note of is Columbia Care's focus on limited-license markets. States like Pennsylvania and Ohio cap the number of retail licenses they'll issue, as well as how many licenses a single business can hold. Meanwhile, Virginia assigns licenses by jurisdiction. The point is this: Columbia Care will be able to establish a presence in key markets without being overrun by competition.</p>\n<p>To be clear, I believe Columbia Care has a very bright future. However, expecting a 180% climb in 12 months might be a bit much.</p>\n<h2>Inovio Pharmaceuticals: Implied upside of 329%</h2>\n<p>But the crème de la crème of upside opportunity, at least on this list, belongs to clinical-stage biotech stock <b>Inovio Pharmaceuticals</b> (NASDAQ:INO). According to Oppenheimer analyst Hartaj Singh, Inovio has a price target of $35, implying that it'll more than quadruple in value over the next year.</p>\n<p>The bulk of Singh's thesis rests with INO-4800, the company's experimental COVID-19 vaccine candidate. Since Inovio's vaccines are DNA-based, Singh believes they can be modified easily to tackle new variants of the disease as they arise. Further, Singh points out that INO-4800 has a more stable shelf life than some of the more popular COVID-19 vaccines. For context, Inovio reported on May 10 that its mid-stage study involving INO-4800 was well-tolerated, with T cell immune responses observed in all age groups.</p>\n<p>Inovio also has a relatively large pipeline for a company with a sub-$2 billion market cap. It has nearly a dozen different DNA-based candidates in clinical trials at the moment to treat everything from infectious diseases to cancer. Generally speaking, the more swings a drug developer gets to take, the more likely they are to hit a home run.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, Inovio Pharmaceuticals has struck out swinging for more than four decades. This is to say that Inovio has yet to bring an approved product to market since its inception more than 40 years ago.</p>\n<p>What's more, INO-4800 wasn't exactly getting the red carpet treatment in the lucrative U.S. market.

That's because historically low lending rates and a rebounding U.S. and global economy bode well for the growth stocks that have led the market higher.\nBut growth isn't the only category analysts believe will outperform. Small-cap stocks -- companies with market caps ranging from $300 million to as high as $2 billion -- were absolutely pummeled during the coronavirus crash and now appear set to thrive. Based on the highest Wall Street price target for each of the following small-cap stocks, implied upside ranging from 158% to as much as 329% may await.\nVaxart: Implied upside of 158%\nThe first tiny tot that Wall Street appears to be really excited about is clinical-stage biotech stock Vaxart (NASDAQ:VXRT). A little over a month ago, analyst Yasmeen Rahimi at Piper Sander placed an $18 price target and an overweight rating on Vaxart. Based on its $6.99 closing price on July 12, we're talking about roughly 158% in implied upside over the next year.\nFor Rahimi, the selling point on Vaxart is the company's Vector-Adjuvant-Antigen Standardized Technology, or VAAST platform. This proprietary oral vaccine platform is deemed relatively low risk by Rahimi given the amount of clinical data readily available. Specifically, VAAST is designed to activate systemic and mucosal immunity in the nose, lungs, intestines, and mouth to help fight against airborne viruses, such as influenza and norovirus.\nBut it's not norovirus that's put Vaxart on the map in 2021. That honor goes to VXA-CoV2-1, the company's clinical-stage coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) candidate. Vaxart's experimental treatment is unique in that it's a pill, not an injection. A pill would likely result in higher vaccination rates, and it would certainly be easier from a distribution and administration standpoint.\nBack on May 3, Vaxart released data from its phase 1 study involving VXA-CoV2-1, which showed demonstrable CD8 T-cell responses. While it was able to generate relatively impressive immune responses, the company's pill didn't produce high levels of neutralizing antibodies in trial participants, which diverges from what we've seen following traditional COVID-19 injections.\nThough Vaxart may have a promising pathway to treat norovirus, it has a steep hill to climb if it's to become relevant in the COVID-19 treatment space. It's probably a bit early to pass judgment either way, but Rahimi's price target is potentially a bit too aggressive for a clinical-stage drug developer.\nColumbia Care: Implied upside of 180%\nWall Street is also exceptionally bullish on the U.S. cannabis industry, with most multistate operators expected to fly. But one marijuana stock with particularly high upside, according to the high-water price target on Wall Street of more than $15 a share, is Columbia Care (OTC:CCHWF). If Wall Street's most aggressive price target comes to fruition, Columbia Care's shareholders could be reveling in a 180% gain over the coming 12 months.\nColumbia Care finds itself perfectly set up to take advantage of a rapidly growing cannabis market in the U.S. In total, 36 states have waved the green flag on medical weed, with half of those states legalizing consumption and/or adult-use sales. With Columbia Care primarily focused on serving medical pot customers for years, it was a pretty seamless transition to also servicing a larger pool of recreational weed clients.\nAlthough the company is generating healthy growth from its existing dispensaries -- 60% same-store sales growth in the first quarter from retail locations open in Q1 2020 -- its core strategy has involved making strategic acquisitions. Last month, the company closed a $240 million deal to acquire Green Leaf Medical, which added operational and in-development dispensaries in four states, as well as close to 400,000 square feet of cultivation and production capacity.\nAdditionally, the purchase of The Green Solution in September 2020 stood out, as it allowed Columbia Care to gobble up Colorado's largest vertically integrated cannabis operator. Colorado sports the second-highest annual weed sales in the U.S., behind only California.\nThe last thing to take note of is Columbia Care's focus on limited-license markets. States like Pennsylvania and Ohio cap the number of retail licenses they'll issue, as well as how many licenses a single business can hold. Meanwhile, Virginia assigns licenses by jurisdiction. The point is this: Columbia Care will be able to establish a presence in key markets without being overrun by competition.\nTo be clear, I believe Columbia Care has a very bright future. However, expecting a 180% climb in 12 months might be a bit much.\nInovio Pharmaceuticals: Implied upside of 329%\nBut the crème de la crème of upside opportunity, at least on this list, belongs to clinical-stage biotech stock Inovio Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:INO). According to Oppenheimer analyst Hartaj Singh, Inovio has a price target of $35, implying that it'll more than quadruple in value over the next year.\nThe bulk of Singh's thesis rests with INO-4800, the company's experimental COVID-19 vaccine candidate. Since Inovio's vaccines are DNA-based, Singh believes they can be modified easily to tackle new variants of the disease as they arise. Further, Singh points out that INO-4800 has a more stable shelf life than some of the more popular COVID-19 vaccines. For context, Inovio reported on May 10 that its mid-stage study involving INO-4800 was well-tolerated, with T cell immune responses observed in all age groups.\nInovio also has a relatively large pipeline for a company with a sub-$2 billion market cap. It has nearly a dozen different DNA-based candidates in clinical trials at the moment to treat everything from infectious diseases to cancer. Generally speaking, the more swings a drug developer gets to take, the more likely they are to hit a home run.\nOn the other hand, Inovio Pharmaceuticals has struck out swinging for more than four decades. This is to say that Inovio has yet to bring an approved product to market since its inception more than 40 years ago.\nWhat's more, INO-4800 wasn't exactly getting the red carpet treatment in the lucrative U.S. market. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration placed a partial clinical hold on Inovio's phase 2/3 trial to gather more info on INO-4800 and its delivery device, known as Cellectra. Months later, the U.S. government pulled funding for a late-stage trial of INO-4800, coercing the company to look internationally to conduct its large-scale study.\nIn other words, with a long history of disappointment in its wake, Inovio is the type of stock investors should avoid until it actually shows us the goods.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":649,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":143211379,"gmtCreate":1625795647391,"gmtModify":1703748695937,"author":{"id":"3566283048885824","authorId":"3566283048885824","name":"ThomasSim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5ae8ed8301f80085926169333185d321","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3566283048885824","authorIdStr":"3566283048885824"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice Man","listText":"Nice Man","text":"Nice Man","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/143211379","repostId":"1153646457","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":291,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":140244522,"gmtCreate":1625664427066,"gmtModify":1703745903971,"author":{"id":"3566283048885824","authorId":"3566283048885824","name":"ThomasSim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5ae8ed8301f80085926169333185d321","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3566283048885824","authorIdStr":"3566283048885824"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment like and comment like and comment","listText":"Comment like and comment like and comment","text":"Comment like and comment like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/140244522","repostId":"1156748810","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1156748810","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625663276,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1156748810?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-07 21:07","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What the stock market’s ‘black swan’ index hitting an all-time high tells us","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1156748810","media":"Marketwatch","summary":"In late June the CBOE’s SKEW Index — a.k.a the “black swan” index — hit an all-time high.

Any objective observer would view the company as being in very dire straits; after all, AMC is saddled with billions in debt, reeling from the global pandemic, and facing a highly uncertain recovery amid the streaming revolution and compressed theatrical windows. Of course, this being the year of the meme stock and Reddit-fueled speculation, the stock is up a massive 2,350% this year.</p>\n<p>Retail investors apparently see the stock as a reopening play and a short squeeze candidate, while also also betting their online community will keep buying and holding the stock.</p>\n<p>That's a dubious proposition, however, as it's really, really difficult to see how AMC's intrinsic value is now worth anything close to its current share price.</p>\n<p>Of course, given its inflated share price, AMC does have a chance to raise money to help it through this transition period and potentially transform the company. But its shareholders are preventing management from doing what it needs to do, hurting their own cause in the process.</p>\n<h2>AMC pulls the plug on more share sales</h2>\n<p>On July 6, AMC filed a document with the SEC saying it would not seek shareholder approval to sell another 25 million shares at the upcoming July 29 annual shareholder meeting. CEO Adam Aron, who has taken great pains to cultivate an online relationship with his retail shareholder base, took to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> to say that due to the significant opposition from many shareholders to further dilution, the company would be scrapping that proposal:</p>\n<blockquote>\n It's no secret I think shareholders should authorize 25 million more AMC shares. But what YOU think is important to us. Many yes, many no. AMC does not want to proceed with such a split. So, we're cancelling the July vote on more shares. And no more such requests in 2021. 1 of 2 pic.twitter.com/yNLhBAU5y1— Adam Aron (@CEOAdam) July 6, 2021\n</blockquote>\n<p>Kudos to Aron for being responsive to his retail shareholders, who have already helped out the company tremendously by bidding up the stock and allowing the company to raise about $1.25 billion last quarter. Obviously, he needs to keep the retail message boards happy and AMC's stock high for as long as possible.</p>\n<p>However, shareholders really should have approved another 25 million shares, which would have raised a significant amount -- basically another $1.25 billion at these prices, with minimal further dilution. It's a massive unforced error.</p>\n<h2>Despite massive dilution already, AMC still could use more cash</h2>\n<p>I don't think retail investors quite understand the predicament in which AMC still finds itself -- even after all the money it's raised. Although the domestic June box office has bounced back to top $1 billion for the first time since February 2020, it's still well short of pre-pandemic levels. Only around 80% of theaters are open, and the delta variant is still wreaking havoc in Europe, where AMC also owns a significant amount of theaters.</p>\n<p>Movie theaters are a high fixed-cost business, so unless theaters are open and close to full capacity, the company will still likely be burning cash in the second quarter. Given how much it's raised and how much the company had at the end of the first quarter, AMC's cash levels are likely a little under $2 billion.</p>\n<p>You might think that's a lot, but a look further down the balance sheet shows other hazards lurking. AMC still has over $5.4 billion in debt and another $4.9 billion in lease liabilities. Furthermore, at the end of the first quarter, its current liabilities outstripped its current assets by another $500 million, likely due to some deferred rent it will now have to pay. Those current assets have since been boosted by the equity sales, but that's a lot of liabilities on the balance sheet for a company that is still likely unprofitable.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the only ways today's stock price has a chance of making sense is if AMC can purchase other bankrupt theater chains on the cheap. But that will take a lot of capital, too. According to <i>Deadline</i>, AMC may be absorbing the leases of two high-traffic California cinemas, The Grove in Los Angeles and the Americana mall in Glendale, from the previous owner.</p>\n<p>Having been to The Grove shopping center, I can attest this is a very high-traffic theater. It would be great if AMC could scoop up more leases of well-placed theaters whose owners are now bankrupt without stretching its balance sheet any further. But since shareholders have blocked more equity sales, AMC may have to leave other similar opportunities on the table.</p>\n<h2>Shareholders aren't seeing the big picture</h2>\n<p>While AMC's share count has roughly quintupled since before the pandemic, remarkably, shares are trading close to all-time highs -- in fact, much higher than before the pandemic, when the company was operating at full strength. So at roughly $50 per share and more than a $25 billion market cap, AMC should be raising all the money it can at these prices to make sure it can get through the pandemic and take advantage of any opportunities that may come up. After all, the company was only asking for another 25 million shares, which would amount to just under 5% dilution at today's share count. That's really peanuts relative to the dilution that's already occurred.</p>\n<p>But of course, some meme-stock holders may not be doing any math, or thinking about intrinsic value. Most of the commentary you read on Reddit is about solidarity in \"holding the line\" and \"sticking it to the shorts.\" That kind of coordinated buying can work for a while, but as Warren Buffett's teacher Benjamin Graham once said, \"in the short run, the stock market is a voting machine, in the long run, it's a weighing machine.\"</p>\n<p>We don't know how long this coordinated \"voting\" will go on, but it won't be forever. When the bubble bursts, I think shareholders will wish AMC had another $1.25 billion in cash on hand. It's a big unforced error on shareholders' part.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>AMC Entertainment Shareholders Are Making a Huge Mistake</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\">\nAMC Entertainment Shareholders Are Making a Huge Mistake\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-07 21:20 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/07/07/amc-entertainment-shareholders-are-making-a-huge-m/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The most surprising stock of 2021 is probably AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:AMC), the world's largest movie theater chain.

COVID-19 pan","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>5 reasons the pandemic megatrend is over.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>One of the biggest investment stories of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the boom in consumer discretionary stocks with a “shelter in suburbia” theme. From e-commerce platforms to home improvement stores to furniture and housewares merchants, many of the top performers have fit this flavor.</p>\n<p>Take the broad-based Vanguard Consumer Discretionary Index Fund ETF VCR, +0.66% that surged more than 90% from March 2020 to March 2021. That was thanks to components like home improvement stocks Lowe’s LOW, -0.30% and Home Depot HD, -0.33% alongside retailers like TJX TJX, -0.08%.</p>\n<p>Lately, however, performance has started to lag for many of these names. In fact, since April 1 we’ve seen these three stocks all drift slightly into the red even as the S&amp;P 500 SPX, -0.11% has tacked on about 6% in the same period.</p>\n<p>And some fear that may only be the beginning. As one Wall Street insider said recently in a Bloomberg interview, a “huge unwind” is coming for stay-at-home stocks, including hardware stores and home-goods merchants.</p>\n<p>While some big-name “suburbia” trades are still relatively stable, signs of trouble are already emerging at the fringes. Century Communities CCS, -0.34% and Dream Finders Homes DFH, -2.55%, two mid-tier single family homebuilders, have seen shares crash by double digits over the last month. On the furnishings side, appliance giant Whirlpool Corporation WHR, -0.51% and department store Nordstrom JWN, +2.03% are down sharply from their spring highs.</p>\n<p><b>Here are five big reasons why:</b></p>\n<p><b>1.</b>&nbsp;<b>The upgrade cycle is over</b></p>\n<p>Last summer, white-collar workers who were stuck at home made note of overdue projects and took advantage of being able to easily meet with contractors. But in many ways, this growth is not sustainable.</p>\n<p>Consider the kind of purchases homeowners were making according to data from the NPD Group. Faucets, kitchen cabinets and even toilets were among the most popular products sold in 2020. Needless to say, even the most profligate homeowners aren’t going to follow this upgrade cycle of remodeling kitchens and bathrooms on an annual basis.</p>\n<p>The same is true for furniture and other home goods. Internet giant Comscore recorded the highest visitation to related websites in history in May 2020 with 133 million web surfers shopping for some kind of home goods. Once again, a new couch or lamp is not an annual purchase — so this trend seems unsustainable for much longer.</p>\n<p><b>2.&nbsp;Valuations are stretched</b></p>\n<p>Speaking of post-pandemic peaks for home-goods purveyors, we’ve seen the financials bear out these big increases via boosted profits and sales. However, we’ve also seen the stock of many related merchants surge even more — stretching their valuations from historical norms.</p>\n<p>Take TJX. Currently this discount retailer has a forward price-to-earnings ratio of more than 26, compared with a forward P/E of just 21 in spring 2020. Its trailing price-to-sales ratio is now 2.1 compared with 1.4.</p>\n<p>What’s more, valuations for previous darlings like TJX are out of line with peers, too. Consider the forward P/E of the overall S&amp;P 500 index is 22 right now, and other similar names like Macy’s M, +0.70% and Big Lots BIG, -3.71% actually have forward P/E ratios well under 10. You can argue TJX is unique, of course… but you also may want to be aware of what “fair value” looks like for many other stocks outside fashionable stay-at-home trades right now.</p>\n<p><b>3.&nbsp;Delays and shortages</b></p>\n<p>Future growth from pandemic-fueled peaks in these stocks is not impossible, of course. But given supply chain disruptions it seems highly unlikely. There are a host of reasons for these delays, including overseas shipping delays as well as capacity and output crunches that are affecting many industries, but “stay at home” stocks seem particularly hard hit.</p>\n<p>Home improvement products are simply nowhere to be found, with roughly 94% of builders reporting “at least some serious shortages of appliances” according to the National Association of Home Builders. Another 93% are running short on framing lumber and 87% say it is hard to obtain windows and doors.</p>\n<p>Even if you can get past demand concerns, without the raw materials to get to work it’s very hard to see future growth in this category.</p>\n<p><b>4.&nbsp;Inflationary pressures</b></p>\n<p>For the people who haven’t already ponied up the cash for a contractor or made their peace with extended delays for their expensive new furniture, there is a pretty big disincentive right now for new shoppers: inflation.</p>\n<p>The cost of living as measured by the Consumer Price Index jumped 0.6% in May to run at a 5% annual rate. That was not only higher than expectations, but the fastest pace since the summer of 2008. The inflation risks were so pronounced that the Federal Reserve publicly stated it could move up the schedule for expected interest rate increases to keep the risks under wraps.</p>\n<p>Inflation isn’t always a death knell, of course. But it has historically eroded purchasing power and could curtail some of the spending in “stay at home” stocks that we’ve seen in the last year or so.</p>\n<p><b>5.&nbsp;Home-equity hubris</b></p>\n<p>Speaking of red-hot inflation: In May, the median price for U.S. homes topped $350,000 for the first time ever — up 23.6% from 2020. What’s more, a Realtor.com survey showed roughly a third of selling homeowners expect to get more than their asking price, and roughly the same amount expect an offer within a week of listing.</p>\n<p>Some of this is justifiable. Many articles have been written in recent years about the dearth of supply in attractive markets, and it’s important to acknowledge the remote work of the pandemic has indeed created some disruptive introspection into why people live where they do.</p>\n<p>But here’s where things get dicey: homeowners who have already spent the expected premium on their home’s price well in advance. According to Freddie Mac, about $152.7 billion in equity loans were taken out on U.S. houses last year, a massive increase of 41.7% from 2019 and the highest refinancing cash-out dollar amount since 2007.</p>\n<p>Anyone remember what happened to the real-estate market in 2007? Or the similar sense of seller entitlement from those days? There’s no clear signs of a bubble bursting just yet, but there’s real risk American homeowners may be overly optimistic about what their homes are worth — and a chance this home equity loan free-for-all simply isn’t sustainable for much longer.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","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 ‘shelter in suburbia’ trade is about to reverse — and these stocks will suffer</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 ‘shelter in suburbia’ trade is about to reverse — and these stocks will suffer\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-24 18:14 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-shelter-in-suburbia-trade-is-about-to-reverse-and-these-stocks-will-suffer-11624457411?siteid=yhoof2><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>5 reasons the pandemic megatrend is over.\n\nOne of the biggest investment stories of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the boom in consumer discretionary stocks with a “shelter in suburbia” theme.

From e-commerce platforms to home improvement stores to furniture and housewares merchants, many of the top performers have fit this flavor.</p>\n<p>Take the broad-based Vanguard Consumer Discretionary Index Fund ETF VCR, +0.66% that surged more than 90% from March 2020 to March 2021. That was thanks to components like home improvement stocks Lowe’s LOW, -0.30% and Home Depot HD, -0.33% alongside retailers like TJX TJX, -0.08%.</p>\n<p>Lately, however, performance has started to lag for many of these names. In fact, since April 1 we’ve seen these three stocks all drift slightly into the red even as the S&amp;P 500 SPX, -0.11% has tacked on about 6% in the same period.</p>\n<p>And some fear that may only be the beginning. As one Wall Street insider said recently in a Bloomberg interview, a “huge unwind” is coming for stay-at-home stocks, including hardware stores and home-goods merchants.</p>\n<p>While some big-name “suburbia” trades are still relatively stable, signs of trouble are already emerging at the fringes. Century Communities CCS, -0.34% and Dream Finders Homes DFH, -2.55%, two mid-tier single family homebuilders, have seen shares crash by double digits over the last month. On the furnishings side, appliance giant Whirlpool Corporation WHR, -0.51% and department store Nordstrom JWN, +2.03% are down sharply from their spring highs.</p>\n<p><b>Here are five big reasons why:</b></p>\n<p><b>1.</b>&nbsp;<b>The upgrade cycle is over</b></p>\n<p>Last summer, white-collar workers who were stuck at home made note of overdue projects and took advantage of being able to easily meet with contractors. But in many ways, this growth is not sustainable.</p>\n<p>Consider the kind of purchases homeowners were making according to data from the NPD Group. Faucets, kitchen cabinets and even toilets were among the most popular products sold in 2020. Needless to say, even the most profligate homeowners aren’t going to follow this upgrade cycle of remodeling kitchens and bathrooms on an annual basis.</p>\n<p>The same is true for furniture and other home goods. Internet giant Comscore recorded the highest visitation to related websites in history in May 2020 with 133 million web surfers shopping for some kind of home goods. Once again, a new couch or lamp is not an annual purchase — so this trend seems unsustainable for much longer.</p>\n<p><b>2.&nbsp;Valuations are stretched</b></p>\n<p>Speaking of post-pandemic peaks for home-goods purveyors, we’ve seen the financials bear out these big increases via boosted profits and sales. However, we’ve also seen the stock of many related merchants surge even more — stretching their valuations from historical norms.</p>\n<p>Take TJX. Currently this discount retailer has a forward price-to-earnings ratio of more than 26, compared with a forward P/E of just 21 in spring 2020. Its trailing price-to-sales ratio is now 2.1 compared with 1.4.</p>\n<p>What’s more, valuations for previous darlings like TJX are out of line with peers, too. Consider the forward P/E of the overall S&amp;P 500 index is 22 right now, and other similar names like Macy’s M, +0.70% and Big Lots BIG, -3.71% actually have forward P/E ratios well under 10. You can argue TJX is unique, of course… but you also may want to be aware of what “fair value” looks like for many other stocks outside fashionable stay-at-home trades right now.</p>\n<p><b>3.&nbsp;Delays and shortages</b></p>\n<p>Future growth from pandemic-fueled peaks in these stocks is not impossible, of course. But given supply chain disruptions it seems highly unlikely. There are a host of reasons for these delays, including overseas shipping delays as well as capacity and output crunches that are affecting many industries, but “stay at home” stocks seem particularly hard hit.</p>\n<p>Home improvement products are simply nowhere to be found, with roughly 94% of builders reporting “at least some serious shortages of appliances” according to the National Association of Home Builders. Another 93% are running short on framing lumber and 87% say it is hard to obtain windows and doors.</p>\n<p>Even if you can get past demand concerns, without the raw materials to get to work it’s very hard to see future growth in this category.</p>\n<p><b>4.&nbsp;Inflationary pressures</b></p>\n<p>For the people who haven’t already ponied up the cash for a contractor or made their peace with extended delays for their expensive new furniture, there is a pretty big disincentive right now for new shoppers: inflation.</p>\n<p>The cost of living as measured by the Consumer Price Index jumped 0.6% in May to run at a 5% annual rate. That was not only higher than expectations, but the fastest pace since the summer of 2008. The inflation risks were so pronounced that the Federal Reserve publicly stated it could move up the schedule for expected interest rate increases to keep the risks under wraps.</p>\n<p>Inflation isn’t always a death knell, of course. But it has historically eroded purchasing power and could curtail some of the spending in “stay at home” stocks that we’ve seen in the last year or so.</p>\n<p><b>5.&nbsp;Home-equity hubris</b></p>\n<p>Speaking of red-hot inflation: In May, the median price for U.S. homes topped $350,000 for the first time ever — up 23.6% from 2020. What’s more, a Realtor.com survey showed roughly a third of selling homeowners expect to get more than their asking price, and roughly the same amount expect an offer within a week of listing.</p>\n<p>Some of this is justifiable. Many articles have been written in recent years about the dearth of supply in attractive markets, and it’s important to acknowledge the remote work of the pandemic has indeed created some disruptive introspection into why people live where they do.</p>\n<p>But here’s where things get dicey: homeowners who have already spent the expected premium on their home’s price well in advance. According to Freddie Mac, about $152.7 billion in equity loans were taken out on U.S. houses last year, a massive increase of 41.7% from 2019 and the highest refinancing cash-out dollar amount since 2007.</p>\n<p>Anyone remember what happened to the real-estate market in 2007? Or the similar sense of seller entitlement from those days? There’s no clear signs of a bubble bursting just yet, but there’s real risk American homeowners may be overly optimistic about what their homes are worth — and a chance this home equity loan free-for-all simply isn’t sustainable for much longer.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","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 ‘shelter in suburbia’ trade is about to reverse — and these stocks will suffer</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 ‘shelter in suburbia’ trade is about to reverse — and these stocks will suffer\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-24 18:14 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-shelter-in-suburbia-trade-is-about-to-reverse-and-these-stocks-will-suffer-11624457411?siteid=yhoof2><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>5 reasons the pandemic megatrend is over.\n\nOne of the biggest investment stories of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the boom in consumer discretionary stocks with a “shelter in suburbia” theme.

There’s no clear signs of a bubble bursting just yet, but there’s real risk American homeowners may be overly optimistic about what their homes are worth — and a chance this home equity loan free-for-all simply isn’t sustainable for much longer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":179,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":140246581,"gmtCreate":1625664236543,"gmtModify":1703745900182,"author":{"id":"3566283048885824","authorId":"3566283048885824","name":"ThomasSim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5ae8ed8301f80085926169333185d321","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3566283048885824","authorIdStr":"3566283048885824"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice nice nice nice nice.

Any objective observer would view the company as being in very dire straits; after all, AMC is saddled with billions in debt, reeling from the global pandemic, and facing a highly uncertain recovery amid the streaming revolution and compressed theatrical windows.

But its shareholders are preventing management from doing what it needs to do, hurting their own cause in the process.</p>\n<h2>AMC pulls the plug on more share sales</h2>\n<p>On July 6, AMC filed a document with the SEC saying it would not seek shareholder approval to sell another 25 million shares at the upcoming July 29 annual shareholder meeting. CEO Adam Aron, who has taken great pains to cultivate an online relationship with his retail shareholder base, took to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> to say that due to the significant opposition from many shareholders to further dilution, the company would be scrapping that proposal:</p>\n<blockquote>\n It's no secret I think shareholders should authorize 25 million more AMC shares. But what YOU think is important to us. Many yes, many no. AMC does not want to proceed with such a split. So, we're cancelling the July vote on more shares. And no more such requests in 2021. 1 of 2 pic.twitter.com/yNLhBAU5y1— Adam Aron (@CEOAdam) July 6, 2021\n</blockquote>\n<p>Kudos to Aron for being responsive to his retail shareholders, who have already helped out the company tremendously by bidding up the stock and allowing the company to raise about $1.25 billion last quarter. Obviously, he needs to keep the retail message boards happy and AMC's stock high for as long as possible.</p>\n<p>However, shareholders really should have approved another 25 million shares, which would have raised a significant amount -- basically another $1.25 billion at these prices, with minimal further dilution. It's a massive unforced error.</p>\n<h2>Despite massive dilution already, AMC still could use more cash</h2>\n<p>I don't think retail investors quite understand the predicament in which AMC still finds itself -- even after all the money it's raised. Although the domestic June box office has bounced back to top $1 billion for the first time since February 2020, it's still well short of pre-pandemic levels. Only around 80% of theaters are open, and the delta variant is still wreaking havoc in Europe, where AMC also owns a significant amount of theaters.</p>\n<p>Movie theaters are a high fixed-cost business, so unless theaters are open and close to full capacity, the company will still likely be burning cash in the second quarter. Given how much it's raised and how much the company had at the end of the first quarter, AMC's cash levels are likely a little under $2 billion.</p>\n<p>You might think that's a lot, but a look further down the balance sheet shows other hazards lurking. AMC still has over $5.4 billion in debt and another $4.9 billion in lease liabilities. Furthermore, at the end of the first quarter, its current liabilities outstripped its current assets by another $500 million, likely due to some deferred rent it will now have to pay. Those current assets have since been boosted by the equity sales, but that's a lot of liabilities on the balance sheet for a company that is still likely unprofitable.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the only ways today's stock price has a chance of making sense is if AMC can purchase other bankrupt theater chains on the cheap. But that will take a lot of capital, too. According to <i>Deadline</i>, AMC may be absorbing the leases of two high-traffic California cinemas, The Grove in Los Angeles and the Americana mall in Glendale, from the previous owner.</p>\n<p>Having been to The Grove shopping center, I can attest this is a very high-traffic theater. It would be great if AMC could scoop up more leases of well-placed theaters whose owners are now bankrupt without stretching its balance sheet any further. But since shareholders have blocked more equity sales, AMC may have to leave other similar opportunities on the table.</p>\n<h2>Shareholders aren't seeing the big picture</h2>\n<p>While AMC's share count has roughly quintupled since before the pandemic, remarkably, shares are trading close to all-time highs -- in fact, much higher than before the pandemic, when the company was operating at full strength. So at roughly $50 per share and more than a $25 billion market cap, AMC should be raising all the money it can at these prices to make sure it can get through the pandemic and take advantage of any opportunities that may come up. After all, the company was only asking for another 25 million shares, which would amount to just under 5% dilution at today's share count. That's really peanuts relative to the dilution that's already occurred.</p>\n<p>But of course, some meme-stock holders may not be doing any math, or thinking about intrinsic value. Most of the commentary you read on Reddit is about solidarity in \"holding the line\" and \"sticking it to the shorts.\" That kind of coordinated buying can work for a while, but as Warren Buffett's teacher Benjamin Graham once said, \"in the short run, the stock market is a voting machine, in the long run, it's a weighing machine.\"</p>\n<p>We don't know how long this coordinated \"voting\" will go on, but it won't be forever. When the bubble bursts, I think shareholders will wish AMC had another $1.25 billion in cash on hand.
