The consensus target is $118.41, and LyondellBasell stock ended Wednesday at $100.40 a share.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":539,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":140469758,"gmtCreate":1625669044174,"gmtModify":1703746138060,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JFIN\">$Jiayin Group Inc.(JFIN)$</a>any chance to bounce back?","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JFIN\">$Jiayin Group Inc.(JFIN)$</a>any chance to bounce back?","text":"$Jiayin Group Inc.(JFIN)$any chance to bounce back?","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/debd685a9d9a72cc3e3c74ed58124ae2","width":"1080","height":"1920"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/140469758","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":608,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3578209218805809","authorId":"3578209218805809","name":"KakaLaKa","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/79597e0fe8cb34824a340e80defd9f70","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3578209218805809","authorIdStr":"3578209218805809"},"content":"Hais i also bought at 9.02","text":"Hais i also bought at 9.02","html":"Hais i also bought at 9.02"}],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":152896357,"gmtCreate":1625279402379,"gmtModify":1703739856729,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Share ","listText":"Share ","text":"Share","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/152896357","repostId":"2148840288","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2148840288","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1625139913,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2148840288?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-01 19:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The Top 50 Robinhood Stocks in July","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2148840288","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Retail investors can't stop buying into these companies.","content":"<p>Though volatility has tapered off in recent weeks, investors have received something of a crash course in being patient over the past 17 months.

Five of the 33 most-held companies on Robinhood's leaderboard hail from our neighbor to the north.</p>\n<p>Even though cannabis-focused research company BDSA has forecasted weed sales growth in Canada from $2.6 billion in 2020 to $6.4 billion by 2026, the Canadian pot industry has been a disaster.

In a little over a seven-month stretch, more than 1.35 billion shares were issued.

Once the most-held stock on Robinhood, Aurora has drowned its shareholders in dilution. Even after selling one of its greenhouses and shuttering a number of other cultivation facilities, its cost-cutting has put it nowhere near close to generating a profit. As long as Aurora keeps burning through cash, its management team will continue to issue stock.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e0e9f554fbd3314fbbb8ba78c5a65d3e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"524\"><span>Image source: American Airlines.</span></p>\n<h2>An obsession with travel companies</h2>\n<p>Another absolute head-scratcher is Robinhood investors' obsession with travel companies -- specifically airlines and cruise ship operators.</p>\n<p>On one hand, the case could be made that the coronavirus pandemic overly punished the travel industry. Though we remain firmly in a global pandemic, increased domestic vaccination rates offer hope that the U.S. could soon put the pandemic in the rearview mirror. For instance, the Transportation Security Administration screened over 2 million passengers in a single day in mid-June for the first time since before the pandemic was declared.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, the travel industry tends to be built on mediocre margins, at best, and it typically requires the economy to be running on all cylinders. Despite recovering from a recession, most airline stocks are now lugging around billions in extra debt that they didn't have two years ago. American Airlines, which I've previously anointed as the worst airline stock, has $34 billion in net debt and $48 billion in aggregate debt. The interest American Airlines is going to have to pay to service this debt could cripple its growth initiatives for the next decade.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, companies like Norwegian Cruise Line came perilously close to bankruptcy during the pandemic. Unlike airlines, which are essential for business travel, cruise ships aren't essential. They'll remain at the mercy of the pandemic until it's firmly in the rearview mirror. That means Norwegian may continue losing money well into 2022, if not beyond.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2bd808070a9dde55f37210b59edc2e23\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"393\"><span>A Tesla Model S plugged in for charging. Image source: Tesla.</span></p>\n<h2>Alternative energy for autos in focus</h2>\n<p>Lastly, Robinhood investors appear to be going all-in on anything that has to do with alternative/clean energy for vehicles.</p>\n<p>Electric vehicle (EV) kingpin Tesla has surpassed Apple to become the most-held stock on the platform, while Ford, General Motors, Workhorse Group, NIO, and Churchill Capital are other EV producers that found their way into the top 50 leaderboard (GM and Ford predominantly produce combustion-engine vehicles at the moment). If we also include Plug Power, FuelCell Energy, and Ideanomics, that's nine of the top 48 Robinhood stocks that are devoted to alternative energy adoption for autos.</p>\n<p>There's pretty much no question at this point that EVs and potentially hydrogen fuel cells represent the future of the automotive industry. There's a multi-decade opportunity for consumers and enterprise fleets to switch over to alternative solutions, as well as for ancillary players to build the infrastructure necessary to support EVs and hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles.</p>\n<p>The issue is that investors have a tendency to overestimate how quickly new technology is adopted, and that's likely what we're witnessing with EVs. The fact that Tesla is worth $647 billion is ludicrous considering that it hasn't demonstrated it can generate a profit from selling its EVs. The only way Tesla has been able to generate a profit is by selling renewable energy credits or taking a one-time benefit from the sale of <b>Bitcoin</b>.</p>\n<p>The EV space is growing increasingly more crowded, and the major auto stocks are investing tens of billions into new models. It's unlikely that Tesla will be able to hold onto its competitive edge for much longer.</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>The Top 50 Robinhood Stocks in July</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 Top 50 Robinhood Stocks in July\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-01 19:45 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/07/01/the-top-50-robinhood-stocks-in-july/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Though volatility has tapered off in recent weeks, investors have received something of a crash course in being patient over the past 17 months.

As long as Aurora keeps burning through cash, its management team will continue to issue stock.\nImage source: American Airlines.\nAn obsession with travel companies\nAnother absolute head-scratcher is Robinhood investors' obsession with travel companies -- specifically airlines and cruise ship operators.\nOn one hand, the case could be made that the coronavirus pandemic overly punished the travel industry. Though we remain firmly in a global pandemic, increased domestic vaccination rates offer hope that the U.S. could soon put the pandemic in the rearview mirror. For instance, the Transportation Security Administration screened over 2 million passengers in a single day in mid-June for the first time since before the pandemic was declared.\nOn the other hand, the travel industry tends to be built on mediocre margins, at best, and it typically requires the economy to be running on all cylinders. Despite recovering from a recession, most airline stocks are now lugging around billions in extra debt that they didn't have two years ago. American Airlines, which I've previously anointed as the worst airline stock, has $34 billion in net debt and $48 billion in aggregate debt. The interest American Airlines is going to have to pay to service this debt could cripple its growth initiatives for the next decade.\nMeanwhile, companies like Norwegian Cruise Line came perilously close to bankruptcy during the pandemic. Unlike airlines, which are essential for business travel, cruise ships aren't essential. They'll remain at the mercy of the pandemic until it's firmly in the rearview mirror. That means Norwegian may continue losing money well into 2022, if not beyond.\nA Tesla Model S plugged in for charging. Image source: Tesla.\nAlternative energy for autos in focus\nLastly, Robinhood investors appear to be going all-in on anything that has to do with alternative/clean energy for vehicles.\nElectric vehicle (EV) kingpin Tesla has surpassed Apple to become the most-held stock on the platform, while Ford, General Motors, Workhorse Group, NIO, and Churchill Capital are other EV producers that found their way into the top 50 leaderboard (GM and Ford predominantly produce combustion-engine vehicles at the moment). If we also include Plug Power, FuelCell Energy, and Ideanomics, that's nine of the top 48 Robinhood stocks that are devoted to alternative energy adoption for autos.\nThere's pretty much no question at this point that EVs and potentially hydrogen fuel cells represent the future of the automotive industry. There's a multi-decade opportunity for consumers and enterprise fleets to switch over to alternative solutions, as well as for ancillary players to build the infrastructure necessary to support EVs and hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles.\nThe issue is that investors have a tendency to overestimate how quickly new technology is adopted, and that's likely what we're witnessing with EVs. The fact that Tesla is worth $647 billion is ludicrous considering that it hasn't demonstrated it can generate a profit from selling its EVs. The only way Tesla has been able to generate a profit is by selling renewable energy credits or taking a one-time benefit from the sale of Bitcoin.\nThe EV space is growing increasingly more crowded, and the major auto stocks are investing tens of billions into new models. It's unlikely that Tesla will be able to hold onto its competitive edge for much longer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":408,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":152176763,"gmtCreate":1625278527952,"gmtModify":1703739827493,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ASTR\">$Holicity Inc(ASTR)$</a>finally after 6 mth!!!","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ASTR\">$Holicity Inc(ASTR)$</a>finally after 6 mth!!!","text":"$Holicity Inc(ASTR)$finally after 6 mth!!!","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2feae01d8615982f145e71e3fc9dcbe1","width":"1080","height":"1920"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/152176763","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":402,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":181444846,"gmtCreate":1623409248785,"gmtModify":1704202807917,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Share","listText":"Share","text":"Share","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/181444846","repostId":"2142022769","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2142022769","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1623380100,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2142022769?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-11 10:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"We put 6 more meme stocks' numbers to the test and the differences are telling","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2142022769","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Digging deeper into the the meme stock phenomenon, there are big difference between Palantir, Wendy's, Canoo and other companies.The world of meme stocks is changing every day as traders communicating through Reddit's WallStreetBets channel and other social media set their sights on new targets for short squeezes or find other downtrodden companies to bid up in price.After last week's look at financial results and projections for the four BANG stocks and four other meme companies, what follows i","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>Digging deeper into the the meme stock phenomenon, there are big difference between Palantir, Wendy's, Canoo and other companies.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>The world of meme stocks is changing every day as traders communicating through Reddit's WallStreetBets channel and other social media set their sights on new targets for short squeezes or find other downtrodden companies to bid up in price.</p>\n<p>After last week's look at financial results and projections for the four BANG stocks and four other meme companies, what follows is the same treatment for six more.</p>\n<p>(The BANG stocks are BlackBerry Ltd.

The data was updated overnight between June 9 and 10. The second update takes place around the 25th day of the month.</p>\n<p>Clover is the most heavily shorted stock on the list. Brad Lamensdorf, CEO of ActiveAlts in Westport, Conn., who runs long and short investment strategies, said previously that a short percentage \"over 30% to 40% is outrageously high.\" (Lamensdorf co-manages the AdvisorShares <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HDGE\">Ranger Equity Bear ETF</a> (HDGE), which is meant to be used as a hedging tool.)</p>\n<p>A high percentage of shares sold short makes a stock especially dangerous for the short-sellers, because it can increase the intensity of any short squeeze.</p>\n<p>We have shown the short interest as a percentage of market cap in order to provide context. Tesla Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">$(TSLA)$</a> is an excellent example to provide more context, because the company has such a large market capitalization of $576.8 billion. Only 5.16% of the shares are sold short, but that comes to $29.8 billion in short interest -- the most (in dollars) for any stock in the S&P 500. Amazon.com Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">$(AMZN)$</a> ranks second for dollars of short interest in the benchmark index, with 1.09% of shares sold short, which comes to $18.1 billion in short interest for a company with a market cap of $1.66 trillion.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOEV\">Canoo Inc.</a> (GOEV) is the second-most heavily shorted stock listed above, at 29.5%. The electric-vehicle maker was formed on Dec. 21 through the merger of Canoo Holdings Ltd. and Hennessy Capital Acquisition Corp. IV, a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC. Canoo expects to produce its first vehicle in mid-2022 in limited quantities, with \"serial production launching in 2023,\" according to its 10-K report filed on March 31.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CLNE\">Clean Energy Fuels Corp</a>. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CLNE.AU\">$(CLNE.AU)$</a> provides natural gas for use as an alternative to gasoline or diesel for fleets of vehicles. The stock is 6.58% sold-short, but has had a good run this year as the energy sector has recovered.</p>\n<p><b>Fundamentals</b></p>\n<p>We'll look back at sales results for this group of six meme stocks and then look ahead at sales estimates through 2023.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Looking back</b></li>\n</ul>\n<p>First, here's a comparison of annual sales, in millions of dollars for the past five reported fiscal years (where available):</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bcc4fbd762406f0684e991d289b8b760\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"392\"></p>\n<p>You can see clear growth paths in recent years for Palantir, Wendy's and ContextLogic, while Clean Energy Fuels had understandable challenges from lower natural gas prices in 2020.</p>\n<p>Clover was incorporated on Oct. 18, 2019. It hasn't yet reported annual revenue. For the first quarter, the company reported $200.3 million in sales, up from $165.5 million in the first quarter of 2020. Clover merged with <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IPOC.U\">Social Capital Hedosophia Holdings Corp. III</a> (a SPAC) on Jan. 7.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Looking ahead -- sales</b></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Starting from a baseline of calendar 2021, here are sales estimates going out through 2023 among Wall Street analysts polled by FactSet:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/37c11916067fb3829caff57a89cf17f0\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"380\"></p>\n<p>Double-digit or better sales growth is expected for all of the companies over the next two years except Wendy's. Price-to-sale ratios, based on closing share prices on June 9 and the 2023 estimates, are included. In comparison, the S&P 500 trades for 2.5 times its weighted aggregate consensus sales estimate for 2023.</p>\n<p><b>Looking ahead -- earnings</b></p>\n<p>Here are earnings-per-share estimates going out to 2023:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4cf06aa00f9303dda82b1c3f8cf34c21\" tg-width=\"1260\" tg-height=\"500\"></p>\n<p>You might not have expected the EPS projections to be particularly useful, but they underscore how high these stocks are trading. The S&P 500 trades for 18.4 times its consensus EPS estimate for 2023.</p>\n<p>The estimates show expected improvement for Palantir, if it manages to maintain its rapid sales growth. Wendy's is expected to improve EPS significantly even with modest sale growth, in part because of stock buybacks .</p>\n<p><b>Wall Street's opinion</b></p>\n<p>Here's a summary of opinion for this group of meme stocks among Wall Street analysts:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c2dfa61b27c34a6c17f5b4d2119126f9\" tg-width=\"1259\" tg-height=\"373\"></p>\n<p>So the Wall Street analysts have the most love for ContextLogic, with 82% \"buy\" or equivalent ratings. Second place goes to Clean Energy Fuels. For that company, the timing, in a year of economic and fuel-price recovery, not to mention the desire among many investors to help lower carbon emissions, seems perfect.</p>\n<p>Wall Street is skeptical of Palantir and Clover Health, but it would seem for different reasons, as Palantir already has a history of rapid sales growth.</p>","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>We put 6 more meme stocks' numbers to the test and the differences are telling</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\">\nWe put 6 more meme stocks' numbers to the test and the differences are telling\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2021-06-11 10:55</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<blockquote>\n <b>Digging deeper into the the meme stock phenomenon, there are big difference between Palantir, Wendy's, Canoo and other companies.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>The world of meme stocks is changing every day as traders communicating through Reddit's WallStreetBets channel and other social media set their sights on new targets for short squeezes or find other downtrodden companies to bid up in price.</p>\n<p>After last week's look at financial results and projections for the four BANG stocks and four other meme companies, what follows is the same treatment for six more.</p>\n<p>(The BANG stocks are BlackBerry Ltd.

(BB.T), AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc $(AMC)$, Nokia Corp. (NOKIA.HE) and GameStop Corp. $(GME)$.)\nShort squeezes and meme stocks\nTraders looking to group together on social media to make quick killings by pushing up share prices of companies at early stages or those going through difficult times have been setting up short squeezes.\nProfessional investors have traditionally short-sold shares of companies they believe will perform worse than most other investors or analysts expect. Shorting means borrowing a company's shares and selling them immediately, in the hope of buying them back at a lower price, returning them to the lender and pocketing the difference. If you simply buy a stock hoping it will go up, all you risk is the money you invest. You might get wiped out. But if you short a stock, your risk potential is unlimited. You never know how high the price might rise if you have gotten the trade wrong.\n\"Covering\" a short position is when you buy back the shares to return them to the investor who lent them to you. You are hoping to cover at a lower price than you sold the shares for, to make a profit.\nTo have a short position, you need to have a margin account with a broker -- an account that lets you borrow to invest or trade. Because of the risk in taking a short position, if the share price goes against you (higher), your broker will keep increasing its collateral requirements. If you run out of cash as the price keeps rising, you will be forced to cover at a loss. That type of action among a large group of short-sellers pushes the price higher in a spiral -- a short squeeze.\nSix more meme stocks\nThe action changes daily. On June 9, for example, shares of Clover Health Investments Corp. $(CLOV)$ fell 24% after rising 86% the day before. The stock is 36.6% sold short, according to FactSet.\nRead:Newest meme stock darling Clover Health is popping. Is the SEC watching?\nHere are the six additional meme stocks, following our initial group of eight , sorted by market capitalization as of the close on June 9:\n\nPalantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR) provides a software platform used by government defense and intelligence agencies. It is the largest company on the list by market cap, but not by revenue, as you can see below. A year-to-date chart of its price performance shows how wild the meme-stock action can be:\n\nPalantir's stock was up 3% for 2021 through June 9, but its market cap had increased by 26% because the company had been raising cash by selling additional shares to investors. The company's following as a meme stock seems to spring more from its growth prospects than from short interest, which peaked at 8.5% of shares available for sale, according to FactSet.\nWendy's Co. $(WEN)$ is another meme stock whose addition to the group may be a bit confusing, as the stock isn't heavily shorted and the company is stable. Thornton McEnery dug into the action on June 8, which may have included confusion over Wendy's ticker symbol , when the stock rose 26%.\nContextLogic Inc. (WISH) is one of two stocks on the new list that have fallen this year. The mobile e-commerce company's stock opened below its initial public offering price before the IPO.\nShort interest\nKeeping the group in the same order, here are levels of short interest as percentages of available shares and in dollars:\n\nFactSet's data on short positions as a percentage of shares outstanding is updated twice a month. The data was updated overnight between June 9 and 10. The second update takes place around the 25th day of the month.\nClover is the most heavily shorted stock on the list. Brad Lamensdorf, CEO of ActiveAlts in Westport, Conn., who runs long and short investment strategies, said previously that a short percentage \"over 30% to 40% is outrageously high.\" (Lamensdorf co-manages the AdvisorShares Ranger Equity Bear ETF (HDGE), which is meant to be used as a hedging tool.)\nA high percentage of shares sold short makes a stock especially dangerous for the short-sellers, because it can increase the intensity of any short squeeze.\nWe have shown the short interest as a percentage of market cap in order to provide context. Tesla Inc. $(TSLA)$ is an excellent example to provide more context, because the company has such a large market capitalization of $576.8 billion. Only 5.16% of the shares are sold short, but that comes to $29.8 billion in short interest -- the most (in dollars) for any stock in the S&P 500. Amazon.com Inc. $(AMZN)$ ranks second for dollars of short interest in the benchmark index, with 1.09% of shares sold short, which comes to $18.1 billion in short interest for a company with a market cap of $1.66 trillion.\nCanoo Inc. (GOEV) is the second-most heavily shorted stock listed above, at 29.5%. The electric-vehicle maker was formed on Dec. 21 through the merger of Canoo Holdings Ltd. and Hennessy Capital Acquisition Corp. IV, a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC. Canoo expects to produce its first vehicle in mid-2022 in limited quantities, with \"serial production launching in 2023,\" according to its 10-K report filed on March 31.\nClean Energy Fuels Corp. $(CLNE.AU)$ provides natural gas for use as an alternative to gasoline or diesel for fleets of vehicles. The stock is 6.58% sold-short, but has had a good run this year as the energy sector has recovered.\nFundamentals\nWe'll look back at sales results for this group of six meme stocks and then look ahead at sales estimates through 2023.\n\nLooking back\n\nFirst, here's a comparison of annual sales, in millions of dollars for the past five reported fiscal years (where available):\n\nYou can see clear growth paths in recent years for Palantir, Wendy's and ContextLogic, while Clean Energy Fuels had understandable challenges from lower natural gas prices in 2020.\nClover was incorporated on Oct. 18, 2019. It hasn't yet reported annual revenue. For the first quarter, the company reported $200.3 million in sales, up from $165.5 million in the first quarter of 2020. Clover merged with Social Capital Hedosophia Holdings Corp. III (a SPAC) on Jan. 7.\n\nLooking ahead -- sales\n\nStarting from a baseline of calendar 2021, here are sales estimates going out through 2023 among Wall Street analysts polled by FactSet:\n\nDouble-digit or better sales growth is expected for all of the companies over the next two years except Wendy's. Price-to-sale ratios, based on closing share prices on June 9 and the 2023 estimates, are included. In comparison, the S&P 500 trades for 2.5 times its weighted aggregate consensus sales estimate for 2023.\nLooking ahead -- earnings\nHere are earnings-per-share estimates going out to 2023:\n\nYou might not have expected the EPS projections to be particularly useful, but they underscore how high these stocks are trading. The S&P 500 trades for 18.4 times its consensus EPS estimate for 2023.\nThe estimates show expected improvement for Palantir, if it manages to maintain its rapid sales growth. Wendy's is expected to improve EPS significantly even with modest sale growth, in part because of stock buybacks .\nWall Street's opinion\nHere's a summary of opinion for this group of meme stocks among Wall Street analysts:\n\nSo the Wall Street analysts have the most love for ContextLogic, with 82% \"buy\" or equivalent ratings. Second place goes to Clean Energy Fuels. For that company, the timing, in a year of economic and fuel-price recovery, not to mention the desire among many investors to help lower carbon emissions, seems perfect.\nWall Street is skeptical of Palantir and Clover Health, but it would seem for different reasons, as Palantir already has a history of rapid sales growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":473,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":180319523,"gmtCreate":1623185355262,"gmtModify":1704197772851,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/holicity-inc-announces-effectiveness-registration-215100606.html","listText":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/holicity-inc-announces-effectiveness-registration-215100606.html","text":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/holicity-inc-announces-effectiveness-registration-215100606.html","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/180319523","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":343,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":118645937,"gmtCreate":1622731708629,"gmtModify":1704190070759,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Share","listText":"Share","text":"Share","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/118645937","repostId":"1143150601","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1143150601","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1622729801,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1143150601?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-03 22:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"These are the next Reddit stocks to watch, according to Bank of America","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1143150601","media":"CNBC","summary":"The meme-stock craze is carrying on, and Bank of America is flagging the new stocks getting attentio","content":"<div>\n<p>The meme-stock craze is carrying on, and Bank of America is flagging the new stocks getting attention from the Reddit crowd.\nMeme stocks — names favored by retail traders on Reddit’s WallStreetBets ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/03/these-are-the-next-reddit-stocks-to-watch-says-bank-of-america.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The movie theater company announced Thursday it will sell 11.5 million shares, after the stock closed at an all-time high of $62.55 on Wednesday. AMC Entertainment dropped by as much as 30% on Thursday morning and trading was halted briefly for volatility.\nThe Reddit target said recent volatility and the level of AMC’s stock “reflect market and trading dynamics unrelated to our underlying business,” according to a filing it made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Yet, investors keep piling into the heavily-shorted name.\nIn the past few weeks, Bank of America has been identifying the potential up-and-coming WallStreetBets targets by analyzing for clients how many mentions each stock gets on Reddit, among other things like short interest – that is, the number of shares that have been sold short by investors.\nThe Wall Street firm gave clients an updated list of the top small- to mid-cap stocks to watch during the return of the meme stock craze. The listed names have the most mentions on Reddit and short interest above the 5% average for the S&P 500 in the past week.\nTake a look at the list here.\nSource: Bank of America\nAMC remains No. 1 on the meme stocks list. WallStreetBets mentions have continued to rise for the third week for the movie theater stock with more than 5,000 comments since Wednesday, May 26. Mentions are at their highest levels since February, in the aftermath of GameStop’s epic short squeeze.\nBank of America told clients AMC’s more than 2,000% rally in 2021 could start losing steam.\n“AMC exhibits all three signposts that its rally could be nearing an end (acceleration in price and stock volume, increase in volatility, and a turn lower in the call-to put volume ratio),” Bank of America equity and quant strategist Jill Carey Hall told clients in a note.\nGameStop is still the second most-mentioned stock on Reddit. However, online comments continue to tick down. The stock had more than 3,600 mentions two weeks ago and about 2,670 comments in the past week.\nGameStop and AMC still have 21% of their float shares sold short, according to Bank of America, compared with an average of 5% short interest in a typical U.S. stock.\nNew members on the list are online real estate marketplace Zillow Group and retailer Bed Bath and Beyond.\nZillow got 50 mentions and Bed Bath and Beyond got 24 mentions on Reddit in the past week. Plus, Zillow has 13% and Bed Bath & beyond has 32% of their float shares sold short, according to Bank of America.\n“Among those with high short interest, Zillow (Z) made our top 20 screen for the first time in our dataset since August. And Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY) – one of January’s ‘up-crash’ stocks, made the top 20 for the first time since early Feb. and shares have begun to surge again this week,” said Hall.\nShares of Bed Bath & Beyond are up about 25% this week.\nCommercial spaceflight company Virgin Galactic is the third most-mentioned name on Reddit. The stock has 24% of its float shares sold short, according to Bank of America.\nBeyond Meat, whichBank of America flagged as a new stock to watch a week ago, saw mentions continue to rise and now ranks number four. Shares of Beyond Meat are up about 12% this quarter.\nOther names like Athene Holding,Plug Power,Antero Midstream,Academy Sports and Outdoors and Clean Energy Fuels appeared on the list.\nAmerican Airlines,Gladstone Commercial and Natus Medical also earned spots on Bank of America’s Reddit stock list.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":750,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":119845908,"gmtCreate":1622537705704,"gmtModify":1704185866471,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Share","listText":"Share","text":"Share","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/119845908","repostId":"2139304437","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2139304437","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1622513653,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2139304437?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-01 10:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Have $500? 2 Absurdly Cheap Stocks Long-Term Investors Should Buy Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2139304437","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Even a modest investment in these unstoppable stocks could reap huge rewards over the next decade.","content":"<p>There's no shame in hunting for bargains when it comes to stocks.

After all, the tech industry as a whole appears to be on the recovery in thestock market today. If anything, the growth story in tech remains the same. This is because tech companies will likely continue to innovate and compete, such is the nature of tech today. Not only would this benefit organizations and investors alike, but it would also accelerate the adoption of new technologies globally. Could this be enough to warrant investors taking advantage of the current weakness in the sector?</p><p>Well, like it or not, the world today is heavily reliant on tech. For example, we could look at the personal computer company <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DVMT\">Dell</a> (NYSE: DELL). <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JE\">Just</a> this week, Dell saw earnings of $2.13 a share, well above consensus projections of $1.61. The company cites strong demand for its desktops and laptops throughout the quarter for this performance. Indeed, the consumer tech industry continues to power on regardless of the state of the world.</p><p>Meanwhile, the booming cybersecurity industry is also making headlines today. This is because of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a>’s (NASDAQ: MSFT) latest blog post regarding the infamous SolarWinds (NYSE: SWI) hack. Essentially, Microsoft believes that the Russian hackers responsible have just launched another major cyberattack on over 150 organizations worldwide. As such, the need for tech as a means of defense in this modern age is greater than ever.

After all, the tech industry as a whole appears to be on the recovery in thestock market today. If anything, the growth story in tech remains the same. This is because tech companies will likely continue to innovate and compete, such is the nature of tech today. Not only would this benefit organizations and investors alike, but it would also accelerate the adoption of new technologies globally. Could this be enough to warrant investors taking advantage of the current weakness in the sector?Well, like it or not, the world today is heavily reliant on tech. For example, we could look at the personal computer company Dell (NYSE: DELL). Just this week, Dell saw earnings of $2.13 a share, well above consensus projections of $1.61. The company cites strong demand for its desktops and laptops throughout the quarter for this performance. Indeed, the consumer tech industry continues to power on regardless of the state of the world.Meanwhile, the booming cybersecurity industry is also making headlines today. This is because of Microsoft’s (NASDAQ: MSFT) latest blog post regarding the infamous SolarWinds (NYSE: SWI) hack. Essentially, Microsoft believes that the Russian hackers responsible have just launched another major cyberattack on over 150 organizations worldwide. As such, the need for tech as a means of defense in this modern age is greater than ever. No doubt, as the importance of tech continues to expand, tech stocks could become a more viable bet for investors.

One good way is to regularly invest meaningful sumsin the stock market, over a long period of time -- such as via a low-cost broad-market index fund.</p>\n<p>If you want to try to get to millionairehood sooner, you might try investing in some carefully chosen individual stocks -- perhaps in addition to investing in index funds. Here are three growth stocks that have a lot of potential.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb3e1ae423e7496b9bb443443b54b97f\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"471\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</p>\n<p><b>1. Zscaler</b></p>\n<p><b>Zscaler</b>(NASDAQ:ZS)offers security technology for companies using various cloud services, and has been named the leader in secure web gateways by research firm Gartner. It has been growing briskly, with its stock increasing in value by more than sixfold over only about three years, since the company debuted on the public market. In its most recent quarter, revenue grew by 55% year over year, while billings jumped 71%. The company, recently sporting a market value near $26 billion, \"reached a new milestone by surpassing 5,000 customers during the quarter, including 500 of the Global 2000.\" Between fiscal 2016 and 2020, revenue grew more than fivefold.</p>\n<p>Zscaler has a \"big, audacious goal\" of reaching 200 million users and 100 million workloads, and in a presentation for investors, outlined a handful of growth drivers, such as upselling to existing customers, an increased presence in Japan and Latin America, and continuing technological innovations.The company has excelledat retaining customers and, indeed, at increasing the average amount they spend.</p>\n<p>One concern about Zscaler for investors may be that it has been posting net losses, not net income, in recent years. But that's not unusual for younger, smaller companies. They tend to plow as many dollars as possible into furthering their growth.</p>\n<p><b>2. Datadog</b></p>\n<p>Software-as-a-service (SaaS) company<b>Datadog</b>(NASDAQ:DDOG)has been public for a shorter period than Zscaler. It debuted on the markets in September of 2019, closing at $37.55 per share on its first day, and it has more than doubled in value since then. Its market value recently sat at $27 billion.</p>\n<p>So what does the company do? In its own words, it's a \"monitoring and security platform for cloud applications,\" which helps companies</p>\n<blockquote>\n enable digital transformation and cloud migration, drive collaboration among development, operations, security and business teams, accelerate time to market for applications, reduce time to problem resolution, secure applications and infrastructure, understand user behavior, and track key business metrics.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Various applications have been added to its platform over time, making it even more powerful and attractive to potential customers, and more will be added. Its customers appear to be findinga lot to like in Datadog's offerings, as the company's retention rate was recently around 130%, suggesting not only that it retained most customers, but also that they increased their spending.</p>\n<p>Datadog is growing rapidly, with revenue tripling between fiscal 2018 and 2020. Like Zscaler, it'sposting losseswhile it invests in growth -- developing additional technologies, hiring more people, acquiring more customers, and ramping up its capabilities. Despite that, it'sgenerating free cash flow, which bodes well for its financial health.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f69bfcb5ba5d9c7e18673db94f759aa5\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1142\"></p>\n<p>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</p>\n<p><b>3. Palo Alto Networks</b></p>\n<p><b>Palo Alto Networks</b>(NYSE:PANW)isa global leader in cybersecurity, with a market value recently near $35 billion. Clearly, threats from cyberspace are not going away anytime soon, and companies can't afford to have their systems hacked into and their safeguards breached. Enter Palo Alto, with technology, programs, and even consulting services to help companies secure their data and workings.</p>\n<p>In the company's last reported quarter, revenue and billings jumped 25% and 22% year over year, respectively, topping management's previous guidance. Its growth drivers include its cloud-delivered security subscription offerings, which have gone from four to eight in just two years, and the newer, higher support level that it's offering customers -- \"Platinum Support.\"</p>\n<p>Palo Alto's artificial-intelligence-powered threat detection platform Cortex counts 66% of the Fortune 100 among its customers, plus 35% of the Global 2000. Interestingly, the company notes that \"Cortex XDR's Behavioral Threat Protection instantly blocked a SolarStorm attack on Palo Alto Networks\" and it sees the SolarStorm attack as a growth driver, as it generated more than 1,000 assessment requests related to it. CEO Nikesh Arora noted ina conference call:</p>\n<blockquote>\n This will result in more awareness and focus on cybersecurity, which in all candor, is the need of the hour given the complete reliance on technology in these times. We expect that this attack will be a wake-up call to all enterprises to modernize cybersecurity and will serve as a net incremental tailwind, not just for us but also for the industry.\n</blockquote>\n<p>These three companies are not selling at bargain-basement prices.

You're probably not going to become one, though, unless you take some steps toward it. One good way is to regularly invest meaningful sumsin the stock market, over a long period of time -- such as via a low-cost broad-market index fund.\nIf you want to try to get to millionairehood sooner, you might try investing in some carefully chosen individual stocks -- perhaps in addition to investing in index funds. Here are three growth stocks that have a lot of potential.\n\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\n1. Zscaler\nZscaler(NASDAQ:ZS)offers security technology for companies using various cloud services, and has been named the leader in secure web gateways by research firm Gartner. It has been growing briskly, with its stock increasing in value by more than sixfold over only about three years, since the company debuted on the public market. In its most recent quarter, revenue grew by 55% year over year, while billings jumped 71%. The company, recently sporting a market value near $26 billion, \"reached a new milestone by surpassing 5,000 customers during the quarter, including 500 of the Global 2000.\" Between fiscal 2016 and 2020, revenue grew more than fivefold.\nZscaler has a \"big, audacious goal\" of reaching 200 million users and 100 million workloads, and in a presentation for investors, outlined a handful of growth drivers, such as upselling to existing customers, an increased presence in Japan and Latin America, and continuing technological innovations.The company has excelledat retaining customers and, indeed, at increasing the average amount they spend.\nOne concern about Zscaler for investors may be that it has been posting net losses, not net income, in recent years. But that's not unusual for younger, smaller companies. They tend to plow as many dollars as possible into furthering their growth.\n2. Datadog\nSoftware-as-a-service (SaaS) companyDatadog(NASDAQ:DDOG)has been public for a shorter period than Zscaler. It debuted on the markets in September of 2019, closing at $37.55 per share on its first day, and it has more than doubled in value since then. Its market value recently sat at $27 billion.\nSo what does the company do? In its own words, it's a \"monitoring and security platform for cloud applications,\" which helps companies\n\n enable digital transformation and cloud migration, drive collaboration among development, operations, security and business teams, accelerate time to market for applications, reduce time to problem resolution, secure applications and infrastructure, understand user behavior, and track key business metrics.\n\nVarious applications have been added to its platform over time, making it even more powerful and attractive to potential customers, and more will be added. Its customers appear to be findinga lot to like in Datadog's offerings, as the company's retention rate was recently around 130%, suggesting not only that it retained most customers, but also that they increased their spending.\nDatadog is growing rapidly, with revenue tripling between fiscal 2018 and 2020. Like Zscaler, it'sposting losseswhile it invests in growth -- developing additional technologies, hiring more people, acquiring more customers, and ramping up its capabilities. Despite that, it'sgenerating free cash flow, which bodes well for its financial health.\n\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\n3. Palo Alto Networks\nPalo Alto Networks(NYSE:PANW)isa global leader in cybersecurity, with a market value recently near $35 billion. Clearly, threats from cyberspace are not going away anytime soon, and companies can't afford to have their systems hacked into and their safeguards breached. Enter Palo Alto, with technology, programs, and even consulting services to help companies secure their data and workings.\nIn the company's last reported quarter, revenue and billings jumped 25% and 22% year over year, respectively, topping management's previous guidance. Its growth drivers include its cloud-delivered security subscription offerings, which have gone from four to eight in just two years, and the newer, higher support level that it's offering customers -- \"Platinum Support.\"\nPalo Alto's artificial-intelligence-powered threat detection platform Cortex counts 66% of the Fortune 100 among its customers, plus 35% of the Global 2000. Interestingly, the company notes that \"Cortex XDR's Behavioral Threat Protection instantly blocked a SolarStorm attack on Palo Alto Networks\" and it sees the SolarStorm attack as a growth driver, as it generated more than 1,000 assessment requests related to it. CEO Nikesh Arora noted ina conference call:\n\n This will result in more awareness and focus on cybersecurity, which in all candor, is the need of the hour given the complete reliance on technology in these times. We expect that this attack will be a wake-up call to all enterprises to modernize cybersecurity and will serve as a net incremental tailwind, not just for us but also for the industry.\n\nThese three companies are not selling at bargain-basement prices. But each appears to have a rosy future ahead of it. Consider digging more deeply into any of the companies that interest you, and if you like what you think, you might start a position in one or more by buying a few initial shares, and then add to that position over time. Or play it more conservative and just add the companies to your watch list, hoping for a lower price in the future (and knowing that it may or may not materialize).\nRemember, too, that there are plenty of otherterrific growth stocksout there, and many of them are trading at lower valuations.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":171,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":347776865,"gmtCreate":1618533554757,"gmtModify":1704712288067,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$</a>what caused the dip?","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$</a>what caused the dip?","text":"$NIO Inc.(NIO)$what caused the dip?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/347776865","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":224,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344753547,"gmtCreate":1618445412789,"gmtModify":1704710885858,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JFIN\">$Jiayin Group Inc.(JFIN)$</a>how worse can this get..","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JFIN\">$Jiayin Group Inc.(JFIN)$</a>how worse can this get..","text":"$Jiayin Group Inc.(JFIN)$how worse can this get..","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/344753547","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":466,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":348890558,"gmtCreate":1617900000174,"gmtModify":1704704642840,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Share ","listText":"Share ","text":"Share","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/348890558","repostId":"1147253336","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1147253336","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1617884605,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1147253336?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-08 20:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"4 Popular Meme Stocks That Aren’t Worth the Hype","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1147253336","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"These companies cannot justify the sharp increase in their share price.

Of course, many people have lost money as these meme stocks skyrocket and then crash and burn in quick succession.</p>\n<p>Here are four of the most popular meme stocks that aren’t worth the hype.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>BlackBerry</b>(NYSE:<b><u>BB</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Zomedica</b>(NYSEAMERICAN:<b><u>ZOM</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Koss</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>KOSS</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Churchill Capital IV</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CCIV</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Meme Stocks to Avoid: BlackBerry (BB)</b></p>\n<p>It’s been nearly 15 years since BlackBerry was a significant technology company.</p>\n<p>The once-dominant Canadian smartphone manufacturer was knocked off its perch when <b>Apple</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>APPL</u></b>) debuted the iPhone back in 2007.</p>\n<p>As a glut of other competitors entered the market, BlackBerry was forced to abandon smartphones altogether, although it still licenses its name to a small percentage of phones manufactured and sold in Asia.</p>\n<p>Today, BlackBerry has reinvented itself as an enterprise software and the Internet of Things (IoT) company. BlackBerry focuses much of its resources these days on making software for self-driving vehicles.</p>\n<p>However, the reinvention has only been mildly successful. BlackBerry continues to struggle in markets outside its native Canada and the company’s financial results continue to underwhelm investors. At the end of March, BlackBerry reported a$315-million lossfor its fiscal fourth quarter. Revenue for the quarter came in at $210 million, down from $282 million the previous year.</p>\n<p>BB stock has been a disappointment too, barely moving over the past year. However, the stock spiked 237% in January when it briefly became one of the meme stocks and targeted by r/WallStreetBets. The jump was short lived, of course, and today the stock is back down to $8.60 a share, about the same level it was at toward the end of 2020.</p>\n<p>Still, January’s sharp move higher prompted several BlackBerry executives to sell their stock in the company. Other shareholders should do the same.</p>\n<p><b>Zomedica (ZOM)</b></p>\n<p>There’s no question that people love their pets, and that love seems to have only grown stronger during the pandemic as people stayed home with their cats and dogs.</p>\n<p>Just because people love their pets doesn’t mean they should gamble on animal healthcare company Zomedica. In many ways Zomedica is a classic meme stock, the type of unproven, completely speculative bet the WallStreetBets crowd loves to champion and push higher.</p>\n<p>This accounts for why ZOM stock gained 731% between Jan. 4 and Feb. 8 of this year, rising from just $0.35 to a peak of $2.91.</p>\n<p>Make no mistake, there was nothing to justify the move upwards in ZOM stock other than irrational exuberance.</p>\n<p>Consider that Zomedica didn’t earn any revenue in 2020. Zilch. On top of that, Zomedica posted a net loss of nearly $17 million for last year.</p>\n<p>The company has all of its eggs placed in its“Truforma” platform, an animal diagnostic tool that it hopes to sell to veterinarians across the U.S.</p>\n<p>While Zomedica forecasts that the animal diagnostics market could be worth $5.4 billion by 2026, there’s no indication that it will get a large share of that market.</p>\n<p>ZOM stock is currently trading at $1.46 a share, down 50% from its February high. Buyer beware!</p>\n<p><b>Meme Stocks to Avoid: Koss (KOSS)</b></p>\n<p>Milwaukee, Wisconsin-based Koss, which designs and manufactures headphones, has had a wilder ride than most meme stocks this year.</p>\n<p>On Jan. 15, KOSS stock closed the trading day at $2.90 a share. On the 29, the stock finished trading at $64. That’s an increase of 2,107% in a two week span. At one point, the stock hit an intra-day high of $127.45 per share.</p>\n<p>By late February, Koss’ share price had crashed down to $11.90 and today the stock is worth $23.20 a share. The gigantic price moves have gotten Koss labelled as a prototypical meme stock, with critics saying that it has been pumped and dumped several times by the Reddit mob.</p>\n<p>There hasn’t been much to push KOSS stock higher beyond it being targeted on social media. Koss is a completely average company.</p>\n<p>While its headphones are functional and garner generally favourable reviews, the company struggles to compete in the space against titans such as Apple and <b>Sony</b> (NYSE:<b><u>SONY</u></b>),and Koss is far from being a household name: Beats by Dre they ain’t.</p>\n<p>In fact, Koss has been in business since 1958 and even filed for bankruptcy back in 1984. The company has always struggled to maintain market share. It has consistently been a penny stock since the mid-1980s, and there’s no reason to believe that it can maintain its current lofty valuation over the long-term.</p>\n<p><b>Churchill Capital IV (CCIV)</b></p>\n<p>Among special purpose acquisition companies (SPAC), Churchill Capital IV stands out for all the wrong reasons.</p>\n<p>Before the shell company announced the target it planned to merge with and bring public, CCIV stock rose 547% based solely on wild speculation. After cresting at a high of $64.86 on Feb. 18, the stock has come down 63% and is now stuck under $25.</p>\n<p>Ironically, the share price crashed after Churchill Capital announced on Feb. 22 that it would merge with electric vehicle maker Lucid Motors, a company that many analysts views as viable competitor to market leader <b>Tesla</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>TSLA</u></b>).</p>\n<p>The same investors who were keen to pump up CCIV stock seemed equally eager to sell once the Lucid Motors deal was formally announced.

Of course, many people have lost money as these meme stocks skyrocket and then crash and burn in quick succession.\nHere are four of the most popular meme stocks that aren’t worth the hype.\n\nBlackBerry(NYSE:BB)\nZomedica(NYSEAMERICAN:ZOM)\nKoss(NASDAQ:KOSS)\nChurchill Capital IV(NYSE:CCIV)\n\nMeme Stocks to Avoid: BlackBerry (BB)\nIt’s been nearly 15 years since BlackBerry was a significant technology company.\nThe once-dominant Canadian smartphone manufacturer was knocked off its perch when Apple(NASDAQ:APPL) debuted the iPhone back in 2007.\nAs a glut of other competitors entered the market, BlackBerry was forced to abandon smartphones altogether, although it still licenses its name to a small percentage of phones manufactured and sold in Asia.\nToday, BlackBerry has reinvented itself as an enterprise software and the Internet of Things (IoT) company. BlackBerry focuses much of its resources these days on making software for self-driving vehicles.\nHowever, the reinvention has only been mildly successful. BlackBerry continues to struggle in markets outside its native Canada and the company’s financial results continue to underwhelm investors. At the end of March, BlackBerry reported a$315-million lossfor its fiscal fourth quarter. Revenue for the quarter came in at $210 million, down from $282 million the previous year.\nBB stock has been a disappointment too, barely moving over the past year. However, the stock spiked 237% in January when it briefly became one of the meme stocks and targeted by r/WallStreetBets. The jump was short lived, of course, and today the stock is back down to $8.60 a share, about the same level it was at toward the end of 2020.\nStill, January’s sharp move higher prompted several BlackBerry executives to sell their stock in the company. Other shareholders should do the same.\nZomedica (ZOM)\nThere’s no question that people love their pets, and that love seems to have only grown stronger during the pandemic as people stayed home with their cats and dogs.\nJust because people love their pets doesn’t mean they should gamble on animal healthcare company Zomedica. In many ways Zomedica is a classic meme stock, the type of unproven, completely speculative bet the WallStreetBets crowd loves to champion and push higher.\nThis accounts for why ZOM stock gained 731% between Jan. 4 and Feb. 8 of this year, rising from just $0.35 to a peak of $2.91.\nMake no mistake, there was nothing to justify the move upwards in ZOM stock other than irrational exuberance.\nConsider that Zomedica didn’t earn any revenue in 2020. Zilch. On top of that, Zomedica posted a net loss of nearly $17 million for last year.\nThe company has all of its eggs placed in its“Truforma” platform, an animal diagnostic tool that it hopes to sell to veterinarians across the U.S.\nWhile Zomedica forecasts that the animal diagnostics market could be worth $5.4 billion by 2026, there’s no indication that it will get a large share of that market.\nZOM stock is currently trading at $1.46 a share, down 50% from its February high. Buyer beware!\nMeme Stocks to Avoid: Koss (KOSS)\nMilwaukee, Wisconsin-based Koss, which designs and manufactures headphones, has had a wilder ride than most meme stocks this year.\nOn Jan. 15, KOSS stock closed the trading day at $2.90 a share. On the 29, the stock finished trading at $64. That’s an increase of 2,107% in a two week span. At one point, the stock hit an intra-day high of $127.45 per share.\nBy late February, Koss’ share price had crashed down to $11.90 and today the stock is worth $23.20 a share. The gigantic price moves have gotten Koss labelled as a prototypical meme stock, with critics saying that it has been pumped and dumped several times by the Reddit mob.\nThere hasn’t been much to push KOSS stock higher beyond it being targeted on social media. Koss is a completely average company.\nWhile its headphones are functional and garner generally favourable reviews, the company struggles to compete in the space against titans such as Apple and Sony (NYSE:SONY),and Koss is far from being a household name: Beats by Dre they ain’t.\nIn fact, Koss has been in business since 1958 and even filed for bankruptcy back in 1984. The company has always struggled to maintain market share. It has consistently been a penny stock since the mid-1980s, and there’s no reason to believe that it can maintain its current lofty valuation over the long-term.\nChurchill Capital IV (CCIV)\nAmong special purpose acquisition companies (SPAC), Churchill Capital IV stands out for all the wrong reasons.\nBefore the shell company announced the target it planned to merge with and bring public, CCIV stock rose 547% based solely on wild speculation. After cresting at a high of $64.86 on Feb. 18, the stock has come down 63% and is now stuck under $25.\nIronically, the share price crashed after Churchill Capital announced on Feb. 22 that it would merge with electric vehicle maker Lucid Motors, a company that many analysts views as viable competitor to market leader Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA).\nThe same investors who were keen to pump up CCIV stock seemed equally eager to sell once the Lucid Motors deal was formally announced. A broad rotation out of technology stocks and mounting fatigue over the sheer number of SPAC deals coming to market this year didn’t help matters.\nIt remains to be seen if Lucid Motors stock will ultimately be successful once it begins trading under the ticker symbol“LCID” by June 30 of this year, subject to shareholder approval of the deal. But, for now, Churchill Capital IV seems to have become one of the meme stocks that investors should avoid.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":176,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":354657911,"gmtCreate":1617170487333,"gmtModify":1704696748223,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Share","listText":"Share","text":"Share","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/354657911","repostId":"1166961889","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1166961889","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1617156802,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1166961889?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-31 10:13","market":"us","language":"en","title":"10 Stocks to Build an Income Stream for the Long Haul.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1166961889","media":"Market Wacth","summary":"Bob Baker, a retired aerospace engineer, regularly taps his small pension and Social Security income","content":"<p>Bob Baker, a retired aerospace engineer, regularly taps his small pension and Social Security income to help cover his living expenses.</p><p>But he also relies on a steady dose of stock dividends, something he started to zero in on when he retired in 2015. “Once I fully understood the significance of dividends from quality companies, a priority focus for me was not to have to sell any shares of any holdings,” says Baker, 72, who lives in northern Virginia with his wife.</p><p>Dividends from his retirement accounts are transferred every month into a taxable account to cover required minimum distributions, or RMDs—which kick in after a retiree hits 72, up from age 70½ previously. His holdings includePepsiCo(ticker: PEP),CVS Health(CVS), andPrudential Financial(PRU)—longtime dividend payers that sport yields well above theS&P 500index’s average of about 1.5%. The yield on the dividend stocks in his portfolio was recently 4.5%.</p><p>The notion of using dividends in retirement, either as a way to complement other financial assets, as Baker does, or perhaps rely on them for an even larger percentage of income, is drawing plenty of interest these days. Yields on many traditional income investments are now near historical lows, and the onus increasingly is on individuals to secure their postcareer income. The strategy has spawned something of a movement, encompassing investors of all ages and levels of sophistication. There areFacebookgroups devoted to the topic along with blogs, newsletters, books, and various other platforms.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/87d47a63a4c8bee81dd0af14d95ae412\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"636\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>But these investors are not yourGameStoptraders or momentum players. They are in many cases diligent investors adopting sound strategies to build a portfolio for the long haul, investing sometimes $100 here or $50 there. They’re more like modern-day moms and pops.</p><p>“A big appeal of dividends is really that it’s kind of psychologically easier to stay the course,” says Brian Bollinger, who in 2015 founded Simply Safe Dividends, which includes a monthly newsletter and tools for do-it-yourself dividend investors. “You are focusing on building this growing income stream regardless of market conditions.”</p><p>Indeed, during last year’s pandemic-driven market rout and subsequent strong rally, dividend stocks lagged, and a number of big names cut or suspended their payouts. From when the market reached its prepandemic peak in February 2020 through the end of the year, the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats returned 8.1%, dividends included. Those companies, which have paid out higher dividends for at least 25 straight years, trailed the S&P 500’s 12.7% return over that stretch.</p><p>Yield ShortageThe yield of a 50-50 portfolio of stocks and bonds, once a reliable source of income for retirees, has dwindledto below 2%.Source: Vanguard%Recessions are shaded4% represents a hypothetical annualportfolio withdrawal rate for a retiree.1994'952000'05'10'15'2012345</p><p>But last year’s selloff and relative underperformance offered a chance for nimble dividend investors to add to holdings they considered to be undervalued. If you missed out, however, it’s not too late: Below, we identify 10 stocks with solid yields, consistent payouts, and seeming durability.</p><p>A key force behind the burgeoning interest in retiring on dividends is ultralow interest rates. Even though the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield has touched 1.7% in recent days, passing the S&P 500’s average yield, interest rates remain low by historical standards. Other traditional income—generating investments like certificates of deposit and corporate bonds are also trading with historically low yields.</p><p>“It used to be that retirees could live off the cash flows from a portfolio,” says Colleen Jaconetti, head of investment research at Vanguard Institutional Investor Group. “So, you never really had to think about where it came from.”</p><p>She points out that in early 1995, a 50-50 stock and bond portfolio yielded a little more than 5%, above the 4% annual portfolio withdrawal rate that some advisors and investors use as a starting framework in retirement. That portfolio’s yield had fallen to 1.4% at the end of 2020.</p><p>Such paltry yields can make dividend stocks an attractive investment centerpiece for retirees. They can offer nice yields, and unlike fixed bond coupons, dividends can grow to hedge inflation, which many experts expect to tick up.</p><p>“People generally say that the sweet spot is somewhere between 2.5% and 4.5%” for dividend yields, “and I’m right in the middle of that at 3.6%,” says Dave Van Knapp, an active dividend-growth-investing blogger and investor who relies heavily on dividends in retirement.</p><p>The 74-year-old Van Knapp, who worked in legal publishing, not only promotes the investment strategy but also shows it in action, posting <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of his portfolios on a website called Daily Trade Alert. That portfolio—which had increased more than threefold from when he set it up in 2008, to $151,854 recently—has 28 stocks. They includeJohnson & Johnson(JNJ), PepsiCo, andProcter & Gamble(PG). He uses Social Security and a pension to complement his dividend income streams.</p><p>“A lot of times, when people say I want to live off income in my retirement, many, many people—and the investment industry does this—immediately translate that to bonds,” says Van Knapp. “One of the breakthrough concepts of this [strategy] is that you can generate equity income.”</p><p>One thing to keep in mind is that by eschewing bonds and focusing solely on stocks, investors are discarding an asset class that can provide important portfolio diversification.</p><p>There are many ways to build a portfolio of dividend stocks, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of which entails assembling a collection of blue-chip issues, as Van Knapp’s portfolio does. Investors, however, need to consider the pros and cons of relying heavily on dividends in retirement—and there’s no shortage of each.</p><p>“If you have a large enough portfolio, then buying a blue-chip amalgamation of companies like Procter & Gamble,Kimberly Clark,and so forth that produces enough income for you—you’re golden,” says Charles Lieberman, chief investment officer at Advisors Capital Management. “The conceptual issue is, do you buy a diversified portfolio and peel off assets on a regular basis in order to get cash, or do you invest for income and live off the income?”</p><p>Many investors and financial advisors favor a total-return approach, in which a saver assembles a portfolio of growth stocks and dividend payers—and often bonds and other asset classes—and sometimes sells off assets in retirement to raise cash. Relying largely on stock dividends in retirement, to them, isn’t a feasible approach to amassing the principal necessary for a retirement that could last 30 years or more.</p><p>“I don’t hear any advisors saying, ‘How do I build a dividend-paying portfolio that is going to cover 100% of my client’s income needs?’ ” says Katherine Roy, chief retirement strategist at J.P. Morgan Asset Management. “I just see so many more advisors building diversified portfolios that are oriented toward income, but they are looking for that growth potential, as well.”</p><p>Jaconetti, too, is skeptical, pointing out that stocks with yields of 3% to 4%, though deemed attractive and safe by some investors, can pose a lot of risk, lead to overly concentrated portfolios, and create capital losses.</p><p>“At any given time, there’s no way to say whether growth or value is going to outperform,” Jaconetti adds. “It’s not that you can’t have a lot of diversification within value. But you are most likely underweighting growth. And if growth is outperforming, then you are going to end up underperforming.”</p><p>Still, several of the retirement dividend-investing practitioners<i>Barron’s</i>spoke with believe that it’s possible to actively manage a portfolio of dividend stocks for long-term capital return while minimizing the attendant risks.</p><p>Once I fully understood the significance of dividends from quality companies, a priority focus for me was not to have to sell any shares of any holdings.</p><p>— Retired aerospace engineer Bob Baker, 72</p><p>Jenny Van Leeuwen Harrington, CEO and portfolio manager at Gilman Hill Asset Management, aims for a 5% yield plus capital appreciation in the firm’s equity income strategy. “You can get the 5% yield, but it doesn’t come easy or at a superlow cost” that an equity income exchange-traded fund charges, she says. “You need to work for it.”</p><p>She citesVerizon Communications(VZ),<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IBM\">IBM</a>(IBM), andSL Green Realty(SLG) as examples of what she considers sound companies with attractive yields of at least 4.5%.</p><p>Still, she says, relying solely on stock dividends in retirement isn’t for everyone. “It depends on the amount and what your spending is. That’s the equation,” says Harrington.</p><p>Consider, for example, a retiree whose portfolio totals $200,000. A 3% yield on that would produce $6,000 a year—not very much, though it could be supplemented by Social Security or other income, if available.</p><p>A $1.5 million portfolio, at a 3% yield, would generate annual income of $45,000, which, if combined with other sources like Social Security, could be sufficient.</p><p>Higher yields, of course, are alluring to some investors, but they can signal value traps—where a stock that appears cheap can trade at depressed levels or decline for an extended period of time. Such stocks are the subject of much debate in dividend-investing circles, but investors should do their due diligence before deciding whether a high-yielding stock is worth the risk.</p><p>“Only fundamental analysis reveals the real why [for a high yield] and if it’s a temporary dislocation or a real permanent decliner,” says Harrington, who adds that her clients “find emotional comfort in the consistency of those dividends.”</p><p>Ultimately, an income-dependent retirement strategy isn’t foolproof or something to set and forget.</p><p>“It still requires care,” says Lieberman. “Inevitably, there will be downdrafts in the market, and inevitably there will be a company or multiple companies that at some point cut their dividends, so then you have to adapt.”</p><p>Reliable Retirement ReturnsThese are the types of companies that can offer retirees durable dividends and potenial growth.</p><table><thead><tr><th>Company / Ticker</th><th>Recent Price</th><th>Dividend Yield</th><th>Market Value (bil)</th><th>Return Since 1/31/2020</th><th>5-Year Dividend Growth Rate*</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><b>AT&T</b>/ T</td><td>$29.99</td><td>6.9%</td><td>$215.4</td><td>-14.5%</td><td>2%</td></tr><tr><td><b>Coca-Cola</b>/ KO</td><td>51.52</td><td>3.3</td><td>222.0</td><td>-8.0</td><td>4</td></tr><tr><td><b>Consolidated Edison</b>/ ED</td><td>73.43</td><td>4.2</td><td>25.1</td><td>-17.9</td><td>3</td></tr><tr><td><b>International Business Machines</b>/ IBM</td><td>130.62</td><td>5.0</td><td>116.7</td><td>-3.1</td><td>5</td></tr><tr><td><b>Johnson & Johnson</b>/ JNJ</td><td>161.91</td><td>2.5</td><td>426.3</td><td>12.4</td><td>6</td></tr><tr><td><b>Kellogg</b>/ K</td><td>62.59</td><td>3.7</td><td>21.3</td><td>-5.7</td><td>3</td></tr><tr><td><b>Procter & Gamble</b>/ PG</td><td>132.56</td><td>2.4</td><td>326.4</td><td>9.0</td><td>3</td></tr><tr><td><b>SL Green Realty</b>/ SLG</td><td>70.02</td><td>5.2</td><td>4.9</td><td>-18.5</td><td>8</td></tr><tr><td><b>U.S. Bancorp</b>/ USB</td><td>53.47</td><td>3.1</td><td>80.3</td><td>5.0</td><td>11</td></tr><tr><td><b>Verizon Communications</b>/ VZ</td><td>57.01</td><td>4.4</td><td>236.6</td><td>0.2</td><td>2</td></tr></tbody></table><p>Data as of 3/24/21. *Annualized</p><p>Source: FactSet</p><p>Another factor to consider before pursuing a dividend-focused portfolio for retirement: Not every retiree or saver has the desire, prowess, or time to regularly focus on a stock portfolio. Using mutual funds or a financial advisor can make a lot more sense, their fees notwithstanding.</p><p>But managing a portfolio of dividend stocks works well for some investors.</p><p>“The key consideration was to have a comfortable income stream and not have to liquidate any equities in my portfolio to do so,” says Baker, the former aerospace engineer. “I tend to go into my portfolio every day. I’m retired. I have the time, and I enjoy doing it.”</p><p>Dividend-paying stocks can make a lot of sense for retirees, many of whom face “very difficult investment decisions,” says David Katz, chief investment officer at Matrix Asset Advisors, pointing to low bond yields and rich valuations as major headwinds.</p><p>Certain dividend stocks, he says, “should allow for a healthy and growing income stream and reasonable portfolio growth over time” while providing some downside protection when needed.</p><p>Based on input from Katz and other financial pros, as well as our own research,<i>Barron’s</i>came up with a portfolio of 10 dividend-paying stocks that retirees should consider.</p><p>AT&T</p><p>AT&T(T) is one of the more-discussed stocks among dividend investors, as its yield, at about 7%, is much higher than most U.S companies. A concern that many investors have is the company’s hefty debt load.</p><p>Such a high yield can be a reason for investors to exit, but the entertainment, tech, and telecom conglomerate has a long history of paying a dividend—it’s a member of the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats—and some analysts like its content library and foray into streaming.</p><p>Company executives are showing their support for the dividend. In a March 12 release outlining the company’s strategy and financial outlook, CEO John Stankey said in part that AT&T is “committed to sustaining the dividend at current levels and utilizing cash after dividends to reduce debt.” Chief Financial Officer John Stephens expressed a similar commitment to the dividend at a conference on March 8. “With $26 billion of free cash flow after [capital expenditure], there’s plenty of money to pay out the dividend,” he said.</p><p>The last time the company declared a quarterly dividend increase occurred in December 2019, more than a year ago, boosting it by a penny, to 52 cents a share. But AT&T looks like it’s on course to at least sustain the dividend.</p><p>Coca-Cola</p><p>In the 1970s,Coca-Cola(KO) ran a series of TV advertisements built around the mantra “Coke adds life.” The beverage behemoth has added a lot of yield over the years, as well, and it continues to do so—with its stock recently yielding 3.3%.</p><p>Coke managed to keep its quarterly dividend at 41 cents a share last year, even though the pandemic took a big toll on restaurants, one of the company’s key sales channels.</p><p>Coke earned an adjusted $1.95 a share in 2020, down from $2.11 the previous year, as sales fell 11%, to $33 billion. Analysts polled by FactSet expect sales to rebound this year to $36.7 billion, still below 2019 levels, and for the company to earn $2.14 a share.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4abb2face6ef1f0a3bee7cd44ac2c533\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"413\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Coca-Cola maintained its dividend during the pandemic, a testament to its durability even in rough times.GEORGE FREY/BLOOMBERG</p><p>Despite the headwinds, Coke’s board in February declared a quarterly dividend of 42 cents a share, up by a penny, or 2.4%. The company paid out $7 billion in dividends to shareholders last year—includingBerkshIre Hathaway’sWarren Buffett, who has famously enjoyed the company’s products, and dividends, for years.</p><p>In an investor presentation last month, Coke listed continuing to increase its dividend as its second-highest capital-allocation priority after reinvesting in its businesses.</p><p>The stock is down about 5% this year, dividends included.

That’s below the 3.5% dividend increases the company has averaged in recent years, Fishman observes, “and we expect this level of increase over the next several years due to the economic impact of Covid-19.”</p><p>But he calls the dividend secure, “considering the conservative strategy of the company’s nonutility businesses and the favorable regulatory framework for its New York utilities.”</p><p>Katz believes that the “stock will probably get a lift as a reopening play and a New York City recovery.”</p><p>IBM</p><p>IBM shares have returned about 5% this year, slightly ahead of the S&P 500, but they’ve been a laggard over longer periods owing to disappointing financial results, including weak revenue growth.</p><p>But the company has been trying to change that. In 2019, for example, IBM acquired Red Hat, which offers customers a hybrid cloud platform, for about $33 billion using a combination of debt and cash. Red Hat’s sales grew 18% on a normalized basis in 2020, CEO Arvind Krishna told analysts in January. That should help solidify the dividend and grow it modestly.</p><p>Gilman Hill’s Harrington sees Red Hat’s “hybrid cloud IT strategies” becoming “an increasingly meaningful driver of total revenue growth” for the company. It’s “a stock everyone loves to hate,” she says, “and, as a result, [it] has been written off.”</p><p>On the plus side, the stock yields 5%, and the company has said that it’s committed to the dividend. IBM earlier this year was admitted to the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats—demonstrating the consistency of dividend growth that retirement savers and retirees need for the long haul.</p><p>Johnson & Johnson</p><p>With its diversified mix of businesses, Johnson & Johnson throws off a lot of free cash flow, giving it the wherewithal to maintain its dividend and boost it through thick and thin.</p><p>Case in point: Last April, as the pandemic was forcing many companies to slash or eliminate their dividends, J&J declared a quarterly payout of $1.01 a share, up 6% from 95 cents. This came even as one of its key business units, medical devices, came under pressure as customers put off elective surgeries due to the pandemic.</p><p>Last year, the company, whose businesses also include consumer products and prescription drugs, paid out about $10.5 billion in dividends, or roughly half of its free cash flow.</p><p>Morningstar analyst Damien Conover likes J&J’s “diverse revenue base, a developing research pipeline, and exceptional cash flow generation”—three attributes that should support the dividend and keep it growing.</p><p>Kellogg</p><p>Kellogg(K), whose signature brands include Special K, Rice Krispies, and Pringles, has lagged behind the market this year with a flattish return. But the company’s foundation looks sound, helped by its plant-based proteins under the Morningstar Farms Incogmeato label and others.</p><p>The company notched organic sales growth of 6% in 2020, lifted by gains across all of its regions globally and its four major product categories: snacks, cereal, frozen food, and noodles. That helped offset headwinds that included Covid-19 and divestitures.</p><p>What’s more, Kellogg paid a quarterly dividend of 57 cents a share throughout the pandemic-challenged year, and it plans to boost it by a penny in the second quarter. The stock was recently yielding 3.7%.</p><p>“This means returning more cash to share owners, and it reflects our confidence in the business,” CFO Amit Banati told analysts during the company’s fourth-quarter earnings call in February.</p><p>The company earned $4.03 a share on an adjusted basis last year, up fractionally from $4 in 2019, and the FactSet consensus for this year is $4.01 a share. It recently fetched 15.3 times its FactSet consensus adjusted 2021 profit estimate.</p><p>Katz describes Kellogg as a “top-tier consumer-staples company selling at a very attractive valuation.”</p><p>Procter & Gamble</p><p>P&G, a consumer-products giant whose brands include Bounty paper towels and Charmin toilet paper, proved its dividend mettle in 2020.</p><p>Last April, it declared a quarterly payout of 79.07 cents a share, an increase of 6%. The stock yields 2.4%.</p><p>Operating chief Jon Moeller told analysts in January that the company had built momentum before the pandemic. That gave P&G confidence, he said, “to increase our dividend at the highest rate in many years, even as we struggled with new Covid realities.”</p><p>The company ultimately benefited from heady sales of lockdown items such paper towels. Analysts surveyed by FactSet expect the company to earn $5.70 a share in its current fiscal year, which ends in June, up from $5.12 last year—testament to P&G’s durability and the health of its dividend.</p><p>SL Green Realty</p><p>Real estate investment trusts, which are required to pay out at least 90% of their taxable income as dividends, are popular among income investors. This REIT could prove particularly popular postpandemic.</p><p>SL Green, which owns a lot of high-profile <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MHC.AU\">Manhattan</a> office buildings, is down 18.5% since last January, before the pandemic began. The company has been hit as tenants grapple with weak occupancies and many employees continue to work from home a year into the pandemic.</p><p>“People were worried about workers never coming back to work in offices in New York City. I think that’s very unlikely,” says Charles Lieberman of Advisors Capital Management.</p><p>He views SL Green as a good way to play the economy’s reopening. SL Green shares have been on the road to recovery, returning about 15% this year alone. The stock was recently yielding 5.2%.</p><p>In March, in addition to declaring a monthly dividend of 30.33 cents a share, the company issued a special dividend of just under $1.70 a share for a total dividend of $2 a share. However, the special was paid in the form of the company’s stock—though shareholders could ask to be paid fully in cash.</p><p>U.S. Bancorp</p><p>Shares ofU.S. Bancorp(USB) have returned about 15% this year, and around 75% over the past year—and they may have room to run.</p><p>Katz calls it a “top-tier super-regional bank” that’s well capitalized with a strong loan portfolio and good credit quality. “We expect them to fully benefit from an improving economy and a steepening yield curve.”</p><p>The bank has several segments, giving its revenue mix some diversification: corporate and commercial banking; consumer and business banking, wealth management and investments; payment services, including for credit and debit cards; and treasury and other support for companies.</p><p>The stock pays a quarterly dividend of 42 cents a share, for a yield around 3%. And that’s not all. Even though the stock has a double-digit return this year, it hasn’t done quite as well as peers such asTruist Financial(TFC) andKeyCorp(KEY). “It’s due for a catch-up trade higher,” says Katz.</p><p>Verizon Communications</p><p>The stock, which yields 4.4%, changes hands a reasonable 11 times the $5.06 FactSet consensus adjusted 2021 profit estimate. That estimate is up 3% from the $4.90 per share earnings last year.</p><p>“Consensus is for low-single digits earnings growth, but we think that will prove too conservative and hasn’t adjusted for management’s revenue-growth guidance,” says Harrington.</p><p>The company’s guidance includes 2%-plus annual service and revenue growth this year and 3%-plus in 2022 and 2023.</p><p>Verizon “should benefit from an improving economy and 5G rollout,” says Katz. He adds that it “can comfortably manage through the cost of the recent and very expensive spectrum auction” for government-issued licenses that allow telecom firms to increase their network capabilities.</p><p>At its investor day earlier in March, Verizon said that it was committed to its dividend, which it listed as its second capital-allocation priority after investing in the business. Verizon’s most recent dividend increase was last September, when it went to 62.75 cents a share, up 2% from 61.5 cents.</p><p>If the company can hold true to its commitment, that should keep the dividend rising and make the stock one that can be relied on for income in retirement.</p>","source":"lsy1604288433698","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

His holdings includePepsiCo(ticker: PEP),CVS Health(CVS), andPrudential Financial(PRU)—longtime dividend payers that sport yields well above theS&P 500index’s average of about 1.5%. The yield on the dividend stocks in his portfolio was recently 4.5%.The notion of using dividends in retirement, either as a way to complement other financial assets, as Baker does, or perhaps rely on them for an even larger percentage of income, is drawing plenty of interest these days. Yields on many traditional income investments are now near historical lows, and the onus increasingly is on individuals to secure their postcareer income. The strategy has spawned something of a movement, encompassing investors of all ages and levels of sophistication. There areFacebookgroups devoted to the topic along with blogs, newsletters, books, and various other platforms.But these investors are not yourGameStoptraders or momentum players. They are in many cases diligent investors adopting sound strategies to build a portfolio for the long haul, investing sometimes $100 here or $50 there. They’re more like modern-day moms and pops.“A big appeal of dividends is really that it’s kind of psychologically easier to stay the course,” says Brian Bollinger, who in 2015 founded Simply Safe Dividends, which includes a monthly newsletter and tools for do-it-yourself dividend investors. “You are focusing on building this growing income stream regardless of market conditions.”Indeed, during last year’s pandemic-driven market rout and subsequent strong rally, dividend stocks lagged, and a number of big names cut or suspended their payouts. From when the market reached its prepandemic peak in February 2020 through the end of the year, the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats returned 8.1%, dividends included. Those companies, which have paid out higher dividends for at least 25 straight years, trailed the S&P 500’s 12.7% return over that stretch.Yield ShortageThe yield of a 50-50 portfolio of stocks and bonds, once a reliable source of income for retirees, has dwindledto below 2%.Source: Vanguard%Recessions are shaded4% represents a hypothetical annualportfolio withdrawal rate for a retiree.1994'952000'05'10'15'2012345But last year’s selloff and relative underperformance offered a chance for nimble dividend investors to add to holdings they considered to be undervalued. If you missed out, however, it’s not too late: Below, we identify 10 stocks with solid yields, consistent payouts, and seeming durability.A key force behind the burgeoning interest in retiring on dividends is ultralow interest rates. Even though the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield has touched 1.7% in recent days, passing the S&P 500’s average yield, interest rates remain low by historical standards. Other traditional income—generating investments like certificates of deposit and corporate bonds are also trading with historically low yields.“It used to be that retirees could live off the cash flows from a portfolio,” says Colleen Jaconetti, head of investment research at Vanguard Institutional Investor Group. “So, you never really had to think about where it came from.”She points out that in early 1995, a 50-50 stock and bond portfolio yielded a little more than 5%, above the 4% annual portfolio withdrawal rate that some advisors and investors use as a starting framework in retirement. That portfolio’s yield had fallen to 1.4% at the end of 2020.Such paltry yields can make dividend stocks an attractive investment centerpiece for retirees. They can offer nice yields, and unlike fixed bond coupons, dividends can grow to hedge inflation, which many experts expect to tick up.“People generally say that the sweet spot is somewhere between 2.5% and 4.5%” for dividend yields, “and I’m right in the middle of that at 3.6%,” says Dave Van Knapp, an active dividend-growth-investing blogger and investor who relies heavily on dividends in retirement.The 74-year-old Van Knapp, who worked in legal publishing, not only promotes the investment strategy but also shows it in action, posting one of his portfolios on a website called Daily Trade Alert. That portfolio—which had increased more than threefold from when he set it up in 2008, to $151,854 recently—has 28 stocks. They includeJohnson & Johnson(JNJ), PepsiCo, andProcter & Gamble(PG). He uses Social Security and a pension to complement his dividend income streams.“A lot of times, when people say I want to live off income in my retirement, many, many people—and the investment industry does this—immediately translate that to bonds,” says Van Knapp. “One of the breakthrough concepts of this [strategy] is that you can generate equity income.”One thing to keep in mind is that by eschewing bonds and focusing solely on stocks, investors are discarding an asset class that can provide important portfolio diversification.There are many ways to build a portfolio of dividend stocks, one of which entails assembling a collection of blue-chip issues, as Van Knapp’s portfolio does. Investors, however, need to consider the pros and cons of relying heavily on dividends in retirement—and there’s no shortage of each.“If you have a large enough portfolio, then buying a blue-chip amalgamation of companies like Procter & Gamble,Kimberly Clark,and so forth that produces enough income for you—you’re golden,” says Charles Lieberman, chief investment officer at Advisors Capital Management. “The conceptual issue is, do you buy a diversified portfolio and peel off assets on a regular basis in order to get cash, or do you invest for income and live off the income?”Many investors and financial advisors favor a total-return approach, in which a saver assembles a portfolio of growth stocks and dividend payers—and often bonds and other asset classes—and sometimes sells off assets in retirement to raise cash. Relying largely on stock dividends in retirement, to them, isn’t a feasible approach to amassing the principal necessary for a retirement that could last 30 years or more.“I don’t hear any advisors saying, ‘How do I build a dividend-paying portfolio that is going to cover 100% of my client’s income needs?’ ” says Katherine Roy, chief retirement strategist at J.P. Morgan Asset Management. “I just see so many more advisors building diversified portfolios that are oriented toward income, but they are looking for that growth potential, as well.”Jaconetti, too, is skeptical, pointing out that stocks with yields of 3% to 4%, though deemed attractive and safe by some investors, can pose a lot of risk, lead to overly concentrated portfolios, and create capital losses.“At any given time, there’s no way to say whether growth or value is going to outperform,” Jaconetti adds. “It’s not that you can’t have a lot of diversification within value. But you are most likely underweighting growth. And if growth is outperforming, then you are going to end up underperforming.”Still, several of the retirement dividend-investing practitionersBarron’sspoke with believe that it’s possible to actively manage a portfolio of dividend stocks for long-term capital return while minimizing the attendant risks.Once I fully understood the significance of dividends from quality companies, a priority focus for me was not to have to sell any shares of any holdings.— Retired aerospace engineer Bob Baker, 72Jenny Van Leeuwen Harrington, CEO and portfolio manager at Gilman Hill Asset Management, aims for a 5% yield plus capital appreciation in the firm’s equity income strategy. “You can get the 5% yield, but it doesn’t come easy or at a superlow cost” that an equity income exchange-traded fund charges, she says. “You need to work for it.”She citesVerizon Communications(VZ),IBM(IBM), andSL Green Realty(SLG) as examples of what she considers sound companies with attractive yields of at least 4.5%.Still, she says, relying solely on stock dividends in retirement isn’t for everyone. “It depends on the amount and what your spending is. That’s the equation,” says Harrington.Consider, for example, a retiree whose portfolio totals $200,000. A 3% yield on that would produce $6,000 a year—not very much, though it could be supplemented by Social Security or other income, if available.A $1.5 million portfolio, at a 3% yield, would generate annual income of $45,000, which, if combined with other sources like Social Security, could be sufficient.Higher yields, of course, are alluring to some investors, but they can signal value traps—where a stock that appears cheap can trade at depressed levels or decline for an extended period of time. Such stocks are the subject of much debate in dividend-investing circles, but investors should do their due diligence before deciding whether a high-yielding stock is worth the risk.“Only fundamental analysis reveals the real why [for a high yield] and if it’s a temporary dislocation or a real permanent decliner,” says Harrington, who adds that her clients “find emotional comfort in the consistency of those dividends.”Ultimately, an income-dependent retirement strategy isn’t foolproof or something to set and forget.“It still requires care,” says Lieberman. “Inevitably, there will be downdrafts in the market, and inevitably there will be a company or multiple companies that at some point cut their dividends, so then you have to adapt.”Reliable Retirement ReturnsThese are the types of companies that can offer retirees durable dividends and potenial growth.Company / TickerRecent PriceDividend YieldMarket Value (bil)Return Since 1/31/20205-Year Dividend Growth Rate*AT&T/ T$29.996.9%$215.4-14.5%2%Coca-Cola/ KO51.523.3222.0-8.04Consolidated Edison/ ED73.434.225.1-17.93International Business Machines/ IBM130.625.0116.7-3.15Johnson & Johnson/ JNJ161.912.5426.312.46Kellogg/ K62.593.721.3-5.73Procter & Gamble/ PG132.562.4326.49.03SL Green Realty/ SLG70.025.24.9-18.58U.S. Bancorp/ USB53.473.180.35.011Verizon Communications/ VZ57.014.4236.60.22Data as of 3/24/21. *AnnualizedSource: FactSetAnother factor to consider before pursuing a dividend-focused portfolio for retirement: Not every retiree or saver has the desire, prowess, or time to regularly focus on a stock portfolio. Using mutual funds or a financial advisor can make a lot more sense, their fees notwithstanding.But managing a portfolio of dividend stocks works well for some investors.“The key consideration was to have a comfortable income stream and not have to liquidate any equities in my portfolio to do so,” says Baker, the former aerospace engineer. “I tend to go into my portfolio every day. I’m retired. I have the time, and I enjoy doing it.”Dividend-paying stocks can make a lot of sense for retirees, many of whom face “very difficult investment decisions,” says David Katz, chief investment officer at Matrix Asset Advisors, pointing to low bond yields and rich valuations as major headwinds.Certain dividend stocks, he says, “should allow for a healthy and growing income stream and reasonable portfolio growth over time” while providing some downside protection when needed.Based on input from Katz and other financial pros, as well as our own research,Barron’scame up with a portfolio of 10 dividend-paying stocks that retirees should consider.AT&TAT&T(T) is one of the more-discussed stocks among dividend investors, as its yield, at about 7%, is much higher than most U.S companies. A concern that many investors have is the company’s hefty debt load.Such a high yield can be a reason for investors to exit, but the entertainment, tech, and telecom conglomerate has a long history of paying a dividend—it’s a member of the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats—and some analysts like its content library and foray into streaming.Company executives are showing their support for the dividend. In a March 12 release outlining the company’s strategy and financial outlook, CEO John Stankey said in part that AT&T is “committed to sustaining the dividend at current levels and utilizing cash after dividends to reduce debt.” Chief Financial Officer John Stephens expressed a similar commitment to the dividend at a conference on March 8. “With $26 billion of free cash flow after [capital expenditure], there’s plenty of money to pay out the dividend,” he said.The last time the company declared a quarterly dividend increase occurred in December 2019, more than a year ago, boosting it by a penny, to 52 cents a share. But AT&T looks like it’s on course to at least sustain the dividend.Coca-ColaIn the 1970s,Coca-Cola(KO) ran a series of TV advertisements built around the mantra “Coke adds life.” The beverage behemoth has added a lot of yield over the years, as well, and it continues to do so—with its stock recently yielding 3.3%.Coke managed to keep its quarterly dividend at 41 cents a share last year, even though the pandemic took a big toll on restaurants, one of the company’s key sales channels.Coke earned an adjusted $1.95 a share in 2020, down from $2.11 the previous year, as sales fell 11%, to $33 billion. Analysts polled by FactSet expect sales to rebound this year to $36.7 billion, still below 2019 levels, and for the company to earn $2.14 a share.Coca-Cola maintained its dividend during the pandemic, a testament to its durability even in rough times.GEORGE FREY/BLOOMBERGDespite the headwinds, Coke’s board in February declared a quarterly dividend of 42 cents a share, up by a penny, or 2.4%. The company paid out $7 billion in dividends to shareholders last year—includingBerkshIre Hathaway’sWarren Buffett, who has famously enjoyed the company’s products, and dividends, for years.In an investor presentation last month, Coke listed continuing to increase its dividend as its second-highest capital-allocation priority after reinvesting in its businesses.The stock is down about 5% this year, dividends included. Still, the company should be a big beneficiary of the economy’s reopening, and its payout history bodes well for the long term.Consolidated EdisonUtilities are often lauded by investors for their durability, resiliency, and big yields. The pandemic has posed a big test for the sector, however, andConsolidated Edison(ED), whose regulated utility footprint includes New York City as well as nearby Westchester and Rockland counties, was no exception.The company earned an adjusted $4.18 a share last year, down 5% from $4.38 in 2019, on an operating revenue decline of about 3% to a little more than $12.2 billion.Still, ConEd’s “regulated utility distribution business will still contribute over 90% of adjusted earnings over the next five years,” wrote Morningstar analyst Charles Fishman recently.Regulated utility businesses are generally regarded as durable and resilient, helping to fuel increases in earnings and dividends.ConEd has boosted its dividend for 47 straight years, most recently in January to $3.10 a share annually, up by four cents, or 1.3%. That’s below the 3.5% dividend increases the company has averaged in recent years, Fishman observes, “and we expect this level of increase over the next several years due to the economic impact of Covid-19.”But he calls the dividend secure, “considering the conservative strategy of the company’s nonutility businesses and the favorable regulatory framework for its New York utilities.”Katz believes that the “stock will probably get a lift as a reopening play and a New York City recovery.”IBMIBM shares have returned about 5% this year, slightly ahead of the S&P 500, but they’ve been a laggard over longer periods owing to disappointing financial results, including weak revenue growth.But the company has been trying to change that. In 2019, for example, IBM acquired Red Hat, which offers customers a hybrid cloud platform, for about $33 billion using a combination of debt and cash. Red Hat’s sales grew 18% on a normalized basis in 2020, CEO Arvind Krishna told analysts in January. That should help solidify the dividend and grow it modestly.Gilman Hill’s Harrington sees Red Hat’s “hybrid cloud IT strategies” becoming “an increasingly meaningful driver of total revenue growth” for the company. It’s “a stock everyone loves to hate,” she says, “and, as a result, [it] has been written off.”On the plus side, the stock yields 5%, and the company has said that it’s committed to the dividend. IBM earlier this year was admitted to the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats—demonstrating the consistency of dividend growth that retirement savers and retirees need for the long haul.Johnson & JohnsonWith its diversified mix of businesses, Johnson & Johnson throws off a lot of free cash flow, giving it the wherewithal to maintain its dividend and boost it through thick and thin.Case in point: Last April, as the pandemic was forcing many companies to slash or eliminate their dividends, J&J declared a quarterly payout of $1.01 a share, up 6% from 95 cents. This came even as one of its key business units, medical devices, came under pressure as customers put off elective surgeries due to the pandemic.Last year, the company, whose businesses also include consumer products and prescription drugs, paid out about $10.5 billion in dividends, or roughly half of its free cash flow.Morningstar analyst Damien Conover likes J&J’s “diverse revenue base, a developing research pipeline, and exceptional cash flow generation”—three attributes that should support the dividend and keep it growing.KelloggKellogg(K), whose signature brands include Special K, Rice Krispies, and Pringles, has lagged behind the market this year with a flattish return. But the company’s foundation looks sound, helped by its plant-based proteins under the Morningstar Farms Incogmeato label and others.The company notched organic sales growth of 6% in 2020, lifted by gains across all of its regions globally and its four major product categories: snacks, cereal, frozen food, and noodles. That helped offset headwinds that included Covid-19 and divestitures.What’s more, Kellogg paid a quarterly dividend of 57 cents a share throughout the pandemic-challenged year, and it plans to boost it by a penny in the second quarter. The stock was recently yielding 3.7%.“This means returning more cash to share owners, and it reflects our confidence in the business,” CFO Amit Banati told analysts during the company’s fourth-quarter earnings call in February.The company earned $4.03 a share on an adjusted basis last year, up fractionally from $4 in 2019, and the FactSet consensus for this year is $4.01 a share. It recently fetched 15.3 times its FactSet consensus adjusted 2021 profit estimate.Katz describes Kellogg as a “top-tier consumer-staples company selling at a very attractive valuation.”Procter & GambleP&G, a consumer-products giant whose brands include Bounty paper towels and Charmin toilet paper, proved its dividend mettle in 2020.Last April, it declared a quarterly payout of 79.07 cents a share, an increase of 6%. The stock yields 2.4%.Operating chief Jon Moeller told analysts in January that the company had built momentum before the pandemic. That gave P&G confidence, he said, “to increase our dividend at the highest rate in many years, even as we struggled with new Covid realities.”The company ultimately benefited from heady sales of lockdown items such paper towels. Analysts surveyed by FactSet expect the company to earn $5.70 a share in its current fiscal year, which ends in June, up from $5.12 last year—testament to P&G’s durability and the health of its dividend.SL Green RealtyReal estate investment trusts, which are required to pay out at least 90% of their taxable income as dividends, are popular among income investors. This REIT could prove particularly popular postpandemic.SL Green, which owns a lot of high-profile Manhattan office buildings, is down 18.5% since last January, before the pandemic began. The company has been hit as tenants grapple with weak occupancies and many employees continue to work from home a year into the pandemic.“People were worried about workers never coming back to work in offices in New York City. I think that’s very unlikely,” says Charles Lieberman of Advisors Capital Management.He views SL Green as a good way to play the economy’s reopening. SL Green shares have been on the road to recovery, returning about 15% this year alone. The stock was recently yielding 5.2%.In March, in addition to declaring a monthly dividend of 30.33 cents a share, the company issued a special dividend of just under $1.70 a share for a total dividend of $2 a share. However, the special was paid in the form of the company’s stock—though shareholders could ask to be paid fully in cash.U.S. BancorpShares ofU.S. Bancorp(USB) have returned about 15% this year, and around 75% over the past year—and they may have room to run.Katz calls it a “top-tier super-regional bank” that’s well capitalized with a strong loan portfolio and good credit quality. “We expect them to fully benefit from an improving economy and a steepening yield curve.”The bank has several segments, giving its revenue mix some diversification: corporate and commercial banking; consumer and business banking, wealth management and investments; payment services, including for credit and debit cards; and treasury and other support for companies.The stock pays a quarterly dividend of 42 cents a share, for a yield around 3%. And that’s not all. Even though the stock has a double-digit return this year, it hasn’t done quite as well as peers such asTruist Financial(TFC) andKeyCorp(KEY). “It’s due for a catch-up trade higher,” says Katz.Verizon CommunicationsThe stock, which yields 4.4%, changes hands a reasonable 11 times the $5.06 FactSet consensus adjusted 2021 profit estimate. That estimate is up 3% from the $4.90 per share earnings last year.“Consensus is for low-single digits earnings growth, but we think that will prove too conservative and hasn’t adjusted for management’s revenue-growth guidance,” says Harrington.The company’s guidance includes 2%-plus annual service and revenue growth this year and 3%-plus in 2022 and 2023.Verizon “should benefit from an improving economy and 5G rollout,” says Katz. He adds that it “can comfortably manage through the cost of the recent and very expensive spectrum auction” for government-issued licenses that allow telecom firms to increase their network capabilities.At its investor day earlier in March, Verizon said that it was committed to its dividend, which it listed as its second capital-allocation priority after investing in the business. Verizon’s most recent dividend increase was last September, when it went to 62.75 cents a share, up 2% from 61.5 cents.If the company can hold true to its commitment, that should keep the dividend rising and make the stock one that can be relied on for income in retirement.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":305,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":354652779,"gmtCreate":1617170275791,"gmtModify":1704696745896,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Share","listText":"Share","text":"Share","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/354652779","repostId":"1154884109","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154884109","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1617160413,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1154884109?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-31 11:13","market":"sh","language":"en","title":"Morgan Stanley picks 5 stocks that could get a boost if China cuts emissions","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154884109","media":"CNBC","summary":"China says it wants to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2060— a move that will significantly benefit some companies in China and the U.S., according to Morgan Stanley.Investors might be skeptical of China's claims, but the report laid out how authorities are already starting to clamp down on carbon emissions — particularly in the high-emitting industries of steel and aluminum production.\"We conclude that this drive for carbon neutrality is very serious,\" said analysts in a March 23 report. \"Th","content":"<div>\n<p>China says it wants to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2060— a move that will significantly benefit some companies in China and the U.S., according to Morgan Stanley.Investors might be skeptical of...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/31/investing-morgan-stanleys-top-stocks-as-china-pushes-to-be-carbon-neutral.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

They estimate steel mills there will cut production by 20% to 30% in 2021, causing a drop in domestic supply.\"Tangshan's production cut will mainly affect flat products, so flat steel prices will get strong support,\" said the analysts, who have been closely following the emissions cuts at Tangshan.Meanwhile, \"Baosteel has very good emission control practice,\" giving the company a competitive edge against peers like Tangshan, the report said.FangDa CarbonFangDa Carbonis the only publicly listed Chinese graphite electrode producer and will likely benefit from higher demand for the material, which is used inelectrical arc furnace (EAF) production of steel.\"The longer-term demand outlook is very positive — we expect more blast furnace capacity to switch to EAF in the long term,\" said the Morgan Stanley report. The analysts expect EAF's share of China's total steel capacity will rise to 20% by 2025, up from 12% currently.ArcelorMittalArcelorMittalis Morgan Stanley's \"favourite play on continued strength in steel margins given its diversified and global footprint,\" the analysts said.In addition, the company recently concluded two deals that are positive for earnings growth as they improve the cost position and carbon intensity of the business.Also, \"the formal introduction of a dividend policy that links dividends to free cash flows should provide comfort around a disciplined allocation of capital,\" Morgan Stanley said.AlcoaGlobal aluminum giantAlcoais \"well positioned to benefit from a constructive outlook for aluminum, supported by China's supply-side reform.\"The analysts expect Alcoa's assets to accelerate generation of free cash flow, \"leading to more significant shareholder returns.\"Risks aheadWhile Beijing might be clamping down on carbon emissions in some industries, it's less clear how serious the country is nationwide.Last year, China built more than three times as much new coal power capacity as the rest of the world, according to analysis from U.S.-based Global Energy Monitor. That's about the same as more than one large coal plant a week,the report said.Morgan Stanley acknowledged that skepticism surrounds China's sustainability goals but said their analysis finds \"many signs suggesting that this could be a more structural change that will reshape global commodities markets.\"Still, some risks remain.The investment bank cautioned that China could stop its efforts to cut carbon emissions due to rising costs and inflation. The analysts also said that tighter monetary policy could weaken China's demand for commodities, and the coronavirus pandemic could decrease global demand.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":327296271,"gmtCreate":1616084471193,"gmtModify":1704790852811,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HOL\">$Holicity Inc(HOL)$</a>knn.

As tech stocks cooled off, the Dow popped 1.5% during regular trading to close above 32000 for the first time.</p>\n<p>The blue-chip index notched its 11th record close of 2021. The S&P 500 jumped 0.60% to inch within 1.2% of its mid-February highs, as Wall Street rotates into underperforming areas, as well as reopening stocks.</p>\n<p>Investors are attempting to figure out what impact more government spending and the increased likelihood of a huge vaccine-boosted economic comeback will have on the market. For instance, a Wall Street Journal survey of economists projects that U.S. GDP will grow by 5.95% in 2021, for its fastest in roughly 40 years.</p>\n<p>The rising bond yields signal increased inflation worries. But U.S. Treasury yields remain historically low and the earnings outlook for the S&P 500 has improved substantially over the last several months.</p>\n<p>Given this backdrop, investors likely want to find ways to safely add to their portfolios this year. Today, we review two highly-ranked stocks with solid fundamentals and Treasury-topping dividend yields that might be worth buying…</p>\n<p><b>Rent-A-Center, Inc. RCII</b></p>\n<p>Rent-A-Center is a lease-to-own retail giant that enables people to slowly pay off everything from furniture and appliances to TVs and more. The company’s sales climbed over 5% in 2020 and it topped our Q4 sales estimates in late February. RCII’s adjusted fourth earnings surged nearly 80% and its sales jumped 7%, as its second-half growth improved significantly from a coronavirus-impacted first half of 2020.</p>\n<p>RCII in February also closed its acquisition of Acima Holdings to help improve its e-commerce offerings in a world where many companies now offer payment plans on everything from electronics to shoes. “E-commerce and digital payments are enhancing our engagement with our customers, and we have a strategic advantage compared to other firms competing in the virtual lease-to-own (‘LTO’) industry to further leverage our last-mile capabilities,” CEO Mitch Fadel said in prepared Q4 remarks.</p>\n<p>Zacks estimates call for Rent-A-Center’s revenue to soar 55% to reach $4.4 billion in fiscal 2021 and another 11% in FY22. Meanwhile, its adjusted earnings are projected to climb by 44% and 18%, respectively over this stretch. Both the projected top and bottom-line growth will be boosted by its Acima purchase.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3bf11e9e436cde28595883b8e94ed31e\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"194\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>The chart showcases how much Rent-A-Center’s earnings out ook has improved since its report, with its FY21 consensus up 37%. RCII’s positive EPS revisions help it land a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), alongside its “A” grade for Momentum and “B” for Value in our Style Scores system.</p>\n<p>RCII shares have soared 230% during the last 12 months to crush Target’s TGT 65% and Shopify’s SHOP 142%. This outperformance is even greater over the past three months, with its shares up 80% vs. the Consumer Discretionary Market’s 9%.</p>\n<p>Rent-A-Center is not just a pandemic fluke, given that its shares are up over 550% in the past three years. The stock quickly recovered its early March losses to trade at brand new records on Wednesday of over $61 a share. The run makes RCII’s 2% dividend yield all the more impressive. And the 2% yield easily tops the 10-year Treasury and retail giant Walmart’s WMT 1.7%.</p>\n<p>RCII trades at 0.70X forward sales to mark a solid discount to its industry’s 5.5X and its own <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-year highs of 1X. The same is true for its valuation in terms of forward earnings.</p>\n<p>Plus, five of the seven broker recommendations Zacks has for Rent-A-Center come in at “Strong Buys,” with none lower than a \"Hold.\" And Rent-A-Center’s Acima acquisition, which it hopes creates a “premier fintech platform across traditional and virtual lease-to-own segments,” could prove vital in the quickly-changing retail landscape.</p>\n<p><b>Texas Instruments TXN</b></p>\n<p>Texas Instruments makes analog and embedded semiconductors that are utilized within the automotive and industrial sectors, as well as consumer electronics, communications equipment and elsewhere. The chip power returned to growth in the last two quarters of 2020 after a tough stretch within the historically cyclical space.</p>\n<p>TXN beat our Q4 FY20 estimates in late January, with revenue up 22% from the year-ago quarter to help its adjusted earnings surge over 60%. The strong back-half of 2020 helped Texas Instruments sales grow by 0.5% on the year. Like with RCII, analysts have raised their outlooks for Texas Instruments since its last report, with its FY21 consensus earnings estimate up 13% and its FY22 figure 12% higher.</p>\n<p>Looking ahead, Zacks estimates call for its revenue to climb over 15% this year to reach $16.7 billion—which would easily top FY18’s total—and help lift its adjusted EPS by 12%. TXN’s top and bottom-line growth is expected to continue in FY22 to the tune of 5% stronger revenue and 9% higher earnings.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/52ee41f17ddeaaeeb6ed59d42dea5666\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>TXN’s bottom-line revisions help the stock grab a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at the moment. Texas Instruments also earns a “B” grade for both Growth and it has consistently surpassed our earnings estimates, including a 35% average beat in the trailing four periods.</p>\n<p>The tech giant with a $156 billion market cap is also firmly committed to rewarding shareholders, as it continually improves its balance sheet. TXN has raised its dividend for 17 years in a row, including a 13% hike in 2020.</p>\n<p>Texas Instruments is poised to keep buying back stock, having already reduced its share count by 46% over the past 15 years. The dividend currently yields 2.4% to top Intel INTC and the 30-year U.S. Treasury, which both sit at roughly 2.2%.</p>\n<p>The yield isn’t artificially inflated by a falling stock price either, with TXN up 60% in the last year to just outpace its highly-ranked industry.

As tech stocks cooled off, the Dow popped 1.5% during regular trading to close above 32000 for the first time.\nThe blue-chip index notched its 11th record close of 2021. The S&P 500 jumped 0.60% to inch within 1.2% of its mid-February highs, as Wall Street rotates into underperforming areas, as well as reopening stocks.\nInvestors are attempting to figure out what impact more government spending and the increased likelihood of a huge vaccine-boosted economic comeback will have on the market. For instance, a Wall Street Journal survey of economists projects that U.S. GDP will grow by 5.95% in 2021, for its fastest in roughly 40 years.\nThe rising bond yields signal increased inflation worries. But U.S. Treasury yields remain historically low and the earnings outlook for the S&P 500 has improved substantially over the last several months.\nGiven this backdrop, investors likely want to find ways to safely add to their portfolios this year. Today, we review two highly-ranked stocks with solid fundamentals and Treasury-topping dividend yields that might be worth buying…\nRent-A-Center, Inc. RCII\nRent-A-Center is a lease-to-own retail giant that enables people to slowly pay off everything from furniture and appliances to TVs and more. The company’s sales climbed over 5% in 2020 and it topped our Q4 sales estimates in late February. RCII’s adjusted fourth earnings surged nearly 80% and its sales jumped 7%, as its second-half growth improved significantly from a coronavirus-impacted first half of 2020.\nRCII in February also closed its acquisition of Acima Holdings to help improve its e-commerce offerings in a world where many companies now offer payment plans on everything from electronics to shoes. “E-commerce and digital payments are enhancing our engagement with our customers, and we have a strategic advantage compared to other firms competing in the virtual lease-to-own (‘LTO’) industry to further leverage our last-mile capabilities,” CEO Mitch Fadel said in prepared Q4 remarks.\nZacks estimates call for Rent-A-Center’s revenue to soar 55% to reach $4.4 billion in fiscal 2021 and another 11% in FY22. Meanwhile, its adjusted earnings are projected to climb by 44% and 18%, respectively over this stretch. Both the projected top and bottom-line growth will be boosted by its Acima purchase.\n\nThe chart showcases how much Rent-A-Center’s earnings out ook has improved since its report, with its FY21 consensus up 37%. RCII’s positive EPS revisions help it land a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), alongside its “A” grade for Momentum and “B” for Value in our Style Scores system.\nRCII shares have soared 230% during the last 12 months to crush Target’s TGT 65% and Shopify’s SHOP 142%. This outperformance is even greater over the past three months, with its shares up 80% vs. the Consumer Discretionary Market’s 9%.\nRent-A-Center is not just a pandemic fluke, given that its shares are up over 550% in the past three years. The stock quickly recovered its early March losses to trade at brand new records on Wednesday of over $61 a share. The run makes RCII’s 2% dividend yield all the more impressive. And the 2% yield easily tops the 10-year Treasury and retail giant Walmart’s WMT 1.7%.\nRCII trades at 0.70X forward sales to mark a solid discount to its industry’s 5.5X and its own one-year highs of 1X. The same is true for its valuation in terms of forward earnings.\nPlus, five of the seven broker recommendations Zacks has for Rent-A-Center come in at “Strong Buys,” with none lower than a \"Hold.\" And Rent-A-Center’s Acima acquisition, which it hopes creates a “premier fintech platform across traditional and virtual lease-to-own segments,” could prove vital in the quickly-changing retail landscape.\nTexas Instruments TXN\nTexas Instruments makes analog and embedded semiconductors that are utilized within the automotive and industrial sectors, as well as consumer electronics, communications equipment and elsewhere. The chip power returned to growth in the last two quarters of 2020 after a tough stretch within the historically cyclical space.\nTXN beat our Q4 FY20 estimates in late January, with revenue up 22% from the year-ago quarter to help its adjusted earnings surge over 60%. The strong back-half of 2020 helped Texas Instruments sales grow by 0.5% on the year. Like with RCII, analysts have raised their outlooks for Texas Instruments since its last report, with its FY21 consensus earnings estimate up 13% and its FY22 figure 12% higher.\nLooking ahead, Zacks estimates call for its revenue to climb over 15% this year to reach $16.7 billion—which would easily top FY18’s total—and help lift its adjusted EPS by 12%. TXN’s top and bottom-line growth is expected to continue in FY22 to the tune of 5% stronger revenue and 9% higher earnings.\n\nTXN’s bottom-line revisions help the stock grab a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at the moment. Texas Instruments also earns a “B” grade for both Growth and it has consistently surpassed our earnings estimates, including a 35% average beat in the trailing four periods.\nThe tech giant with a $156 billion market cap is also firmly committed to rewarding shareholders, as it continually improves its balance sheet. TXN has raised its dividend for 17 years in a row, including a 13% hike in 2020.\nTexas Instruments is poised to keep buying back stock, having already reduced its share count by 46% over the past 15 years. The dividend currently yields 2.4% to top Intel INTC and the 30-year U.S. Treasury, which both sit at roughly 2.2%.\nThe yield isn’t artificially inflated by a falling stock price either, with TXN up 60% in the last year to just outpace its highly-ranked industry. Texas Instruments shares have also largely matched its industry over the three years and the past decade. At $169 a share, TXN closed regular trading Wednesday roughly 6% below its mid-February records.\nMeanwhile, Texas Instruments rests below neutral levels in terms of RSI at 48—where anything above 70 is considered overbought and below 30 is thought of as oversold. The stock also trades right at its own year-long median when it comes to forward 12-month sales and earnings.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":29,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":367737450,"gmtCreate":1614966697170,"gmtModify":1704777793520,"author":{"id":"3567401211097223","authorId":"3567401211097223","name":"ducky4173","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b78c0b11c367f1dd4a519bd908df1d9e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567401211097223","authorIdStr":"3567401211097223"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$</a>just average it out.
