At the conclusion of that meeting, the central bank's median forecast for economic growth was sharply upwardly revised, reflecting improving growth trends as the trajectory of new COVID-19 infections improved and vaccinations broadened out. The central bank said it expects real GDP to grow 6.5% this year, versus the 4.2% rate it anticipated in December.

Fed Chair Powell said that the central bank would be looking for \"substantial further progress\" — and specifically \"actual progress\" in the data and not \"forecast progress\" — toward the Fed's employment and inflation goals before considering tapering.</p><p>Still, with the latest batch of March economic data exceeding estimates, the Fed may soon begin offering up firmer guidance around its plan for tapering the $120 billion per-month asset purchase program, which was first put into place at the start of the pandemic last year.</p><p>\"Financial conditions should remain quite accommodative for a while, and in our view risks an overshoot,\" Rich Rieder, BlackRock chief investment officer, said in a note. \"We think that the Fed should be able to taper asset purchases sooner than many expect and perhaps by the end of the year, or early next year, which suggests to us that communicating its plan could come as early as the June meeting.\"</p><p>While the forthcoming meeting minutes will not take into account FOMC members' appraisal of the latest batch of economic data, it will offer market participants a sense of whether some members were inclined to look past the first signs of a faster-than-expected economic recovery in dictating the direction of monetary policy.</p><p>That said, Fed Chair Powell's public remarks this coming Thursday will offer a more timely view of the central bank's policy thinking. Powell will be speaking at an International Monetary Fund panel on the global economy Thursday afternoon.</p><p>The discussion will come about a week after the Labor Department's March jobs report, which showed a much better than expected gain of 916,000 non-farm payrolls and a dip in the unemployment rate to 6.0%. Plus, last week's Institute for Supply Management's manufacturing purchasing managers' index unexpectedly jumped to a 37-year high, with some survey participants already citing a rise in commodity prices and a supply and demand mismatch that could exacerbate upward price pressures. Market participants will eye Powell's address to see whether or not these prints shift the needle in the Fed's monetary policy projections.</p><p>\"We expect that as the data come in, the volatility in Fed views will become more pronounced over coming months,\" RBC Capital Markets economists wrote in a note last week.</p><h2>Economic calendar</h2><ul><li><p><b>Monday: </b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MRKT\">Markit</a> U.S. Services PMI, March Final (60.2 expected, 60.0 in prior print);

This ambiguity is one drawback of the Fed's flexible average inflation targeting (FAIT) approach which leaves key parameters undefined.\"\"If the Fed were to clearly signal that core PCE inflation in the 2.2%-2.3% range for a year or two is consistent with their view of FAIT and would not trigger a tightening of monetary policy, they could impact market pricing,\" he added. \"Conversely, if the FOMC believes they would raise rates in response to these inflation realizations, then the market is currently pricing an appropriate reaction function and it will take some time for a verdict on whether the Fed or market is correct about the persistence of this inflation shock.\"WASHINGTON, DC - JANUARY 29: Federal Reserve Board Chairman Jerome Powell speaks during a news conference after a Federal Open Market Committee meeting on January 29, 2020 in Washington, DC. Chairman Powell announced that the Federal Reserve will not be adjusting interest rates. (Photo by Samuel Corum/Getty Images)Samuel Corum via Getty ImagesBut while the jury appears to be out among market participants when it comes to the timing of the next rate hike, many agree that the first step toward tightening by the Federal Reserve will likely occur in their crisis-era asset purchase program. Fed Chair Powell said that the central bank would be looking for \"substantial further progress\" — and specifically \"actual progress\" in the data and not \"forecast progress\" — toward the Fed's employment and inflation goals before considering tapering.Still, with the latest batch of March economic data exceeding estimates, the Fed may soon begin offering up firmer guidance around its plan for tapering the $120 billion per-month asset purchase program, which was first put into place at the start of the pandemic last year.\"Financial conditions should remain quite accommodative for a while, and in our view risks an overshoot,\" Rich Rieder, BlackRock chief investment officer, said in a note. \"We think that the Fed should be able to taper asset purchases sooner than many expect and perhaps by the end of the year, or early next year, which suggests to us that communicating its plan could come as early as the June meeting.\"While the forthcoming meeting minutes will not take into account FOMC members' appraisal of the latest batch of economic data, it will offer market participants a sense of whether some members were inclined to look past the first signs of a faster-than-expected economic recovery in dictating the direction of monetary policy.That said, Fed Chair Powell's public remarks this coming Thursday will offer a more timely view of the central bank's policy thinking. Powell will be speaking at an International Monetary Fund panel on the global economy Thursday afternoon.The discussion will come about a week after the Labor Department's March jobs report, which showed a much better than expected gain of 916,000 non-farm payrolls and a dip in the unemployment rate to 6.0%. Plus, last week's Institute for Supply Management's manufacturing purchasing managers' index unexpectedly jumped to a 37-year high, with some survey participants already citing a rise in commodity prices and a supply and demand mismatch that could exacerbate upward price pressures. Market participants will eye Powell's address to see whether or not these prints shift the needle in the Fed's monetary policy projections.\"We expect that as the data come in, the volatility in Fed views will become more pronounced over coming months,\" RBC Capital Markets economists wrote in a note last week.Economic calendarMonday: Markit U.S. Services PMI, March Final (60.2 expected, 60.0 in prior print); Markit U.S. Composite PMI, March Final (59.1 in prior print); ISM Services Index, March (58.7 expected, 55.3 in February); Factory Orders, February (-0.5% expected, 2.6% in January); Durable Goods Orders, February Final (-1.1% expected, -1.1% in prior print); Durable Goods Orders excluding transportation, February final (-0.9% expected, -0.9% in prior print); Non-defense capital goods orders excluding aircraft, February final (-0.8% in prior print); Non-defense capital goods shipments excluding aircraft, February final (-1.0% in prior print)Tuesday: JOLTS Job Openings, February (6.944 million expected, 6.917 million in prior print)Wednesday: MBA Mortgage Applications, week ended April 2 (-2.2% during prior week); Trade Balance, February (-$70.5 billion expected, -$68.2 billion in January); Consumer credit, February ($2.800 billion expected, -$1.315 billion in January) FOMC Meeting Minutes, March MeetingThursday: Initial jobless claims, week ended April 3 (690,000 expected, 719,000 during prior week); Continuing claims, week ended March 27 (3.794 million during prior week)Friday: Producer Price Index, month-over-month, March (0.5% expected, 0.5% in February); Producer Price Index excluding food and energy, month-over-month, March (0.2% expected, 0.2% in February); Producer Price Index, year-over-year, March (3.8% expected, 2.5% in February); Producer Price Index excluding food and energy year-over-year, March (2.7% expected, 2.5% in February); Wholesale inventories, month-over-month, February final (0.5% expected, 0.5% in prior print)Earnings calendarMonday: N/ATuesday: N/AWednesday: N/AThursday: Constellation Brands (STZ) before market openFriday: N/A","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":109,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3567858522384567","authorId":"3567858522384567","name":"BLsince2020","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d02643680c78a56541ca446f5244ca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3567858522384567","authorIdStr":"3567858522384567"},"content":"Need to watch him closely.","text":"Need to watch him closely.","html":"Need to watch him closely."}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9062609328,"gmtCreate":1652054143464,"gmtModify":1676535019143,"author":{"id":"3567858522384567","authorId":"3567858522384567","name":"BLsince2020","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d02643680c78a56541ca446f5244ca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567858522384567","authorIdStr":"3567858522384567"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/HST.SI\">$Lion-OCBC Sec HSTECH S$(HST.SI)$</a>still selling?","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/HST.SI\">$Lion-OCBC Sec HSTECH S$(HST.SI)$</a>still selling?","text":"$Lion-OCBC Sec HSTECH S$(HST.SI)$still selling?","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/1fa12179036712ec304760a1d27ec0cd","width":"1080","height":"3039"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9062609328","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":344,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":352120299,"gmtCreate":1616909569111,"gmtModify":1704799913511,"author":{"id":"3567858522384567","authorId":"3567858522384567","name":"BLsince2020","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d02643680c78a56541ca446f5244ca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567858522384567","authorIdStr":"3567858522384567"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Will Telsa continue to deliver?","listText":"Will Telsa continue to deliver?","text":"Will Telsa continue to deliver?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":6,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/352120299","repostId":"1111192234","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1111192234","pubTimestamp":1616772179,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1111192234?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-26 23:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Deliveries Are Coming.

It is currently built with approximately 87% domestic stocks and 13% foreign stocks as I have added China stocks this month again to my portfolio. I have about 3% of my portfolio in bond mutual funds so that I know how they work and to have at least a little exposure to this sector over time. I plan to have bonds be a very small portion of my portfolio up to right around age 65. Diversification lifts my whole portfolio's returns over time, so finding the best stocks in every sector is a goal for me each and every year. Here are some of the main changes sincemy last portfolio article in February of 2021.</p>\n<table>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Welsh Portfolio</p></td>\n   <td><p>Stocks</p></td>\n   <td><p>Index/Mutual Funds</p></td>\n   <td><p>Bonds</p></td>\n   <td><p>Domestic</p></td>\n   <td><p>International</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>December 2020</p></td>\n   <td><p>72%</p></td>\n   <td><p>28%</p></td>\n   <td><p>3%</p></td>\n   <td><p>85%</p></td>\n   <td><p>15%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>January 2021</p></td>\n   <td><p>73%</p></td>\n   <td><p>27%</p></td>\n   <td><p>2.6%</p></td>\n   <td><p>87%</p></td>\n   <td><p>13%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>February 2021</p></td>\n   <td><p>72%</p></td>\n   <td><p>28%</p></td>\n   <td><p>3%</p></td>\n   <td><p>89%</p></td>\n   <td><p>11%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>March 2021</p></td>\n   <td><p>73%</p></td>\n   <td><p>27%</p></td>\n   <td><p>3%</p></td>\n   <td><p>87%</p></td>\n   <td><p>13%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Here are the details of my personal ~$338k portfolio then, based on values of approximately $30k, $300k, and $3 million broken down by sectors with brief descriptions of each stock in each sector. The best thing about my portfolio setup is that it is scalable so that people interested in following a similar path can set up their portfolios to follow my path no matter how small or large their holdings are.

Apple (AAPL) should be considered as a potential cornerstone piece to any portfolio as one of the world's largest and most profitable companies that prints money almost faster than the Fed. I used the latest rotation from high growth to value in the market in March to add to my stockpile of Apple as the stock hasn't noticeably appreciated in the last 6 months. I hope to keep adding some shares monthly as I think it is a great value at this time and a long-term winner.</p>\n<p>2. QUALCOMM (QCOM) is a major technology solutions provider for companies like Apple and will be an integral part of upcoming transformational secular revolutions like 5G. It's currently my 8th largest individual position with no plans to ever sell currently.</p>\n<p>3. Xilinx (XLNX) is being acquired by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) in a$35B all-stock transactionhopefully before the end of 2021. I love the built-in arbitrage of all-stock transactions like this for tremendous companies like AMD and didn't mind selling my AMD in 2020 to buy Xilinx. I boosted my shares in Xilinx by a noticeable amount in March after its latest pullback. After this latest add not sure if I will get to add more shares before the end of the year when the AMD deal is close to finishing.</p>\n<p>4. Dell (DELL) is a legacy holding which continues to aggressively grow through value acquisitions like the$67B EMC dealand the future potential full acquisition of the hybrid cloud giant VMware (NYSE:VMW) which it owns ~80% of. Michael Dell is a shareholder winner through and through and following in his stock footpaths I think is a good long-term decision.</p>\n<p>5. Roblox (RBLX) is a teen gaming platform that came public through a direct listing in March of 2021. My hope was that it does not come out of the gate as hot as earlier IPOs DoorDash (DASH) and Airbnb (ABNB), which were too expensive for investing in for me personally when they premiered. I was very happy to get in at the IPO price of $64 a share for a large holding which I might add to in the coming months if it continues to linger around the IPO price or lower. I always try to have an eye on what younger generations are loving and this platform is expanding and growing phenomenally.</p>\n<p><b>Sold:</b>Sold my Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT)stock as it was a small position and I wanted to add to my Apple shares as a core holding.</p>\n<p><b>The Health Care Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)</b></p>\n<table>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Stock</p></td>\n   <td><p>$30K</p></td>\n   <td><p>$300K</p></td>\n   <td><p>$3M</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$ARWR</p></td>\n   <td><p>$1,520</p></td>\n   <td><p>$15,200</p></td>\n   <td><p>$152,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$MDT</p></td>\n   <td><p>$460</p></td>\n   <td><p>$4,600</p></td>\n   <td><p>$46,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$MDXG</p></td>\n   <td><p>$1,720</p></td>\n   <td><p>$17,200</p></td>\n   <td><p>$172,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$LLY</p></td>\n   <td><p>$460</p></td>\n   <td><p>$4,600</p></td>\n   <td><p>$46,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$PFE</p></td>\n   <td><p>$300</p></td>\n   <td><p>$3,000</p></td>\n   <td><p>$30,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$MNKD</p></td>\n   <td><p>$110</p></td>\n   <td><p>$1,100</p></td>\n   <td><p>$11,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$SMMT</p></td>\n   <td><p>$290</p></td>\n   <td><p>$2,900</p></td>\n   <td><p>$29,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>% Portfolio</p></td>\n   <td><p>19.9%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>6. Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals (ARWR) is my 4th largest individual stock position as an RNAi juggernaut entering key Phase 3 trials in 2021. A lovely balance sheet with key partnerships with Janssen (JNJ) and Amgen (AMGN) significantly de-risk its TRiM platform as it continues to expand into additional cell types. It has had a nice consolidation around $80 for a bit now so hopefully some good news will be all it needs to reach for that $100 handle.</p>\n<p>7. Medtronic (MDT) Health Care device maker that I think has significant upside from COVID-19 issues for years to come. Hospitals will need the best equipment companies like Medtronic provide as health issues from Covid-19 could persist for years.</p>\n<p>8. MiMedx (MDXG) was my largest individual stock position for a good portion of 2020 as the company made momentous strides in getting its financials back in order and re-listed on the NASDAQ. I trimmed this position after re-listing as its potentially game-changing knee osteoarthritis data comes out later in 2021. I hope to slowly add back to this position in 2021.</p>\n<p>9. Eli Lilly (LLY) is a favored legacy holding that I hope to slowly add to over time and never sell. Some amazing drugs and a pipeline of potential game changing candidates can give this company real zip when good data hits.</p>\n<p>10. Pfizer (PFE) A healthcare behemoth with a big stake in the fight against COVID-19. It seems like a great deal at current prices after its pullback from recent highs to start the year warranting me starting a new position in the company in late February.</p>\n<p>11. MannKind(NASDAQ:MNKD)Is a former legacy holding that I decided to jump back into after its recent$200M capital raisealong with its collaboration with United Therapeutics.</p>\n<p>12. Summit Therapeutics (SMMT) is also a former holding of mine that I sold after I had about tripled my money in. I love the CDC? And gonorrhea candidates in the coming years along with the CEO and majority shareholders backing as a sub $500M company. I plan on doubling my current shares in April when itsrights offeringexpires.</p>\n<p><b>The Communication Services Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)</b></p>\n<table>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Stock</p></td>\n   <td><p>$30K</p></td>\n   <td><p>$300K</p></td>\n   <td><p>$3M</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$DIS</p></td>\n   <td><p>$2,010</p></td>\n   <td><p>$20,100</p></td>\n   <td><p>$201,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$BIDU</p></td>\n   <td><p>$540</p></td>\n   <td><p>$5,400</p></td>\n   <td><p>$54,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$TME</p></td>\n   <td><p>$300</p></td>\n   <td><p>$3,000</p></td>\n   <td><p>$30,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$WWE</p></td>\n   <td><p>$590</p></td>\n   <td><p>$5,900</p></td>\n   <td><p>$59,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$GOOGL</p></td>\n   <td><p>$410</p></td>\n   <td><p>$4,100</p></td>\n   <td><p>$41,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>% Portfolio</p></td>\n   <td><p>15.7%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>13. Disney (DIS) will crush Netflix (NFLX) over time as its streaming platform continues to grow by leaps and bounds. Forever stock for me as my 2nd largest individual stock holding while always looking to add cheap shares. Unfortunately, pullbacks have been few and far between meaning I might not be adding shares until the end of 2021.</p>\n<p>14. Baidu (BIDU) My main grab on re-entering the China space. The recent meltdown in stocks from the Hwang family office, Archegos Capital, means that stocks like Baidu are trading at a tremendous discount to where they were just a couple months ago with their fundamentals still intact.</p>\n<p>15. Tencent (TME) Another victim of Archegos Capital, Tencent is a leader in China's music entertainment industry which also initiated a $1B share repurchase buyback program after the crash of its shares.</p>\n<p>16. World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) is one of the few remaining live event media stocks growing globally, while always a potential takeover target from juggernauts like Disney. Plus, late at night, when finding a good streaming movie seems virtually impossible, putting on a mindless WWE match serves as a great way to end the day for me at least.</p>\n<p>17. Alphabet (GOOGL) One of the latest adds to my portfolio from the infamous FANG names which will most likely land in the never sell category. I prefer it currently over the likes of Facebook (FB) due to privacy issues but that might just be a transitory feeling.</p>\n<p><b>Sold:</b>Sold my AT&amp;T (T) as I sold a lot of defensive names to take advantage of the sell off of quality technology stocks.</p>\n<p><b>The Financial Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)</b></p>\n<table>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Stock</p></td>\n   <td><p>$30K</p></td>\n   <td><p>$300K</p></td>\n   <td><p>$3M</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$GBTC</p></td>\n   <td><p>$2,450</p></td>\n   <td><p>$24,500</p></td>\n   <td><p>$245,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$HSBC</p></td>\n   <td><p>$210</p></td>\n   <td><p>$2,100</p></td>\n   <td><p>$21,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$RPLA</p></td>\n   <td><p>$1,280</p></td>\n   <td><p>$12,800</p></td>\n   <td><p>$128,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>% Portfolio</p></td>\n   <td><p>16.1%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>18. Bitcoin (GBTC) soared over the back part of 2020 and rallied even more to start 2021 by reaching new all-time highs. Even after the most recent significant pullback, it is still my largest individual stock position as institutions continue to take a greater interest in it. As world banks and the Fed continue to print money like it's going out of style due to COVID-19, alternate money sources like Bitcoin could easily continue to see outsized gains in my opinion. EvenElon Musk likes it. Its pullback to end the month is one of the main reasons for my underperformance to the S&amp;P 500 this month. Still absolutely love it though as my top investment.</p>\n<p>19. HSBC Bank (HSBC) is a legacy holding that might finally see some upside if the United Kingdom can ever get Brexit resolved. That of course, might be a big if.</p>\n<p>20. Finance of America (RPLA) My new value SPAC that goes public on April 1st of 2021.

Each and every individual person intent on having the happiest retirement possible could and should take charge of their retirement portfolios and invest in simple index/mutual funds and/or a balanced portfolio like the one I have set up to maximize returns over decades of performance.\nContributions:\nDuring the month of January, my retirement portfolio had $2,100 in contributions added to it. In February, my spouse and I contributed $12,000 to our IRA portfolios for 2020 with the goal to do another $12,000 in IRA contributions for 2021 later on this year. March had no meaningful retirement contributions for stocks or Mutual Funds. Here is how my portfolio performed compared to the SPDR S&P 500 Trust (SPY) over the beginning of 2021. The rotation to value ended up smashing my portfolio for the month but I am in great position for a rebound if that trend ends as I loaded up on unloved growth stocks and tech names.\n\n\n\nFund\nSPY\nWelsh\nWelsh Minus Contributions\n\n\n% Gain Jan 2021\n-1.02%\n2.85%\n2.2%\n\n\n% Gain Feb 2021\n2.84%\n2.59%\n-1.1%\n\n\n% Gain Mar 2021\n4.16%\n1.53%\n1.53%\n\n\nYTD GAINS\n5.96%\n7.12%\n2.66%\n\n\n\nRegular contributions to your retirement portfolio help your portfolio to grow even on less than ideal months where you fail to outperform the S&P 500. Not every month will be a winner, but regular contributions can help make anyone's performance look good over time.\nHere's how the SPY has tracked over the beginning of 2021.\nData byYCharts\nMy portfolio was divided up to start 2021 at around 73% stocks and around 27% mutual and index funds with the goal to increase stocks to over 80% of my portfolio over time. It is currently built with approximately 87% domestic stocks and 13% foreign stocks as I have added China stocks this month again to my portfolio. I have about 3% of my portfolio in bond mutual funds so that I know how they work and to have at least a little exposure to this sector over time. I plan to have bonds be a very small portion of my portfolio up to right around age 65. Diversification lifts my whole portfolio's returns over time, so finding the best stocks in every sector is a goal for me each and every year. Here are some of the main changes sincemy last portfolio article in February of 2021.\n\n\n\nWelsh Portfolio\nStocks\nIndex/Mutual Funds\nBonds\nDomestic\nInternational\n\n\nDecember 2020\n72%\n28%\n3%\n85%\n15%\n\n\nJanuary 2021\n73%\n27%\n2.6%\n87%\n13%\n\n\nFebruary 2021\n72%\n28%\n3%\n89%\n11%\n\n\nMarch 2021\n73%\n27%\n3%\n87%\n13%\n\n\n\nHere are the details of my personal ~$338k portfolio then, based on values of approximately $30k, $300k, and $3 million broken down by sectors with brief descriptions of each stock in each sector. The best thing about my portfolio setup is that it is scalable so that people interested in following a similar path can set up their portfolios to follow my path no matter how small or large their holdings are. With fee-free trading and the advent of fractional shares, investors are more capable than ever in setting up amazing portfolios even when starting from scratch.\nThe Welsh Portfolio 2021\nSource: Author\nThe Information Technology Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$AAPL\n$1,830\n$18,300\n$183,000\n\n\n$QCOM\n$820\n$8,200\n$82,000\n\n\n$XLNX\n$860\n$8,600\n$86,000\n\n\n$DELL\n$490\n$4,900\n$49,000\n\n\n$RBOX\n$480\n$4,800\n$48,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n18.3%\n\n\n\n1. Apple (AAPL) should be considered as a potential cornerstone piece to any portfolio as one of the world's largest and most profitable companies that prints money almost faster than the Fed. I used the latest rotation from high growth to value in the market in March to add to my stockpile of Apple as the stock hasn't noticeably appreciated in the last 6 months. I hope to keep adding some shares monthly as I think it is a great value at this time and a long-term winner.\n2. QUALCOMM (QCOM) is a major technology solutions provider for companies like Apple and will be an integral part of upcoming transformational secular revolutions like 5G. It's currently my 8th largest individual position with no plans to ever sell currently.\n3. Xilinx (XLNX) is being acquired by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) in a$35B all-stock transactionhopefully before the end of 2021. I love the built-in arbitrage of all-stock transactions like this for tremendous companies like AMD and didn't mind selling my AMD in 2020 to buy Xilinx. I boosted my shares in Xilinx by a noticeable amount in March after its latest pullback. After this latest add not sure if I will get to add more shares before the end of the year when the AMD deal is close to finishing.\n4. Dell (DELL) is a legacy holding which continues to aggressively grow through value acquisitions like the$67B EMC dealand the future potential full acquisition of the hybrid cloud giant VMware (NYSE:VMW) which it owns ~80% of. Michael Dell is a shareholder winner through and through and following in his stock footpaths I think is a good long-term decision.\n5. Roblox (RBLX) is a teen gaming platform that came public through a direct listing in March of 2021. My hope was that it does not come out of the gate as hot as earlier IPOs DoorDash (DASH) and Airbnb (ABNB), which were too expensive for investing in for me personally when they premiered. I was very happy to get in at the IPO price of $64 a share for a large holding which I might add to in the coming months if it continues to linger around the IPO price or lower. I always try to have an eye on what younger generations are loving and this platform is expanding and growing phenomenally.\nSold:Sold my Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT)stock as it was a small position and I wanted to add to my Apple shares as a core holding.\nThe Health Care Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$ARWR\n$1,520\n$15,200\n$152,000\n\n\n$MDT\n$460\n$4,600\n$46,000\n\n\n$MDXG\n$1,720\n$17,200\n$172,000\n\n\n$LLY\n$460\n$4,600\n$46,000\n\n\n$PFE\n$300\n$3,000\n$30,000\n\n\n$MNKD\n$110\n$1,100\n$11,000\n\n\n$SMMT\n$290\n$2,900\n$29,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n19.9%\n\n\n\n6. Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals (ARWR) is my 4th largest individual stock position as an RNAi juggernaut entering key Phase 3 trials in 2021. A lovely balance sheet with key partnerships with Janssen (JNJ) and Amgen (AMGN) significantly de-risk its TRiM platform as it continues to expand into additional cell types. It has had a nice consolidation around $80 for a bit now so hopefully some good news will be all it needs to reach for that $100 handle.\n7. Medtronic (MDT) Health Care device maker that I think has significant upside from COVID-19 issues for years to come. Hospitals will need the best equipment companies like Medtronic provide as health issues from Covid-19 could persist for years.\n8. MiMedx (MDXG) was my largest individual stock position for a good portion of 2020 as the company made momentous strides in getting its financials back in order and re-listed on the NASDAQ. I trimmed this position after re-listing as its potentially game-changing knee osteoarthritis data comes out later in 2021. I hope to slowly add back to this position in 2021.\n9. Eli Lilly (LLY) is a favored legacy holding that I hope to slowly add to over time and never sell. Some amazing drugs and a pipeline of potential game changing candidates can give this company real zip when good data hits.\n10. Pfizer (PFE) A healthcare behemoth with a big stake in the fight against COVID-19. It seems like a great deal at current prices after its pullback from recent highs to start the year warranting me starting a new position in the company in late February.\n11. MannKind(NASDAQ:MNKD)Is a former legacy holding that I decided to jump back into after its recent$200M capital raisealong with its collaboration with United Therapeutics.\n12. Summit Therapeutics (SMMT) is also a former holding of mine that I sold after I had about tripled my money in. I love the CDC? And gonorrhea candidates in the coming years along with the CEO and majority shareholders backing as a sub $500M company. I plan on doubling my current shares in April when itsrights offeringexpires.\nThe Communication Services Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$DIS\n$2,010\n$20,100\n$201,000\n\n\n$BIDU\n$540\n$5,400\n$54,000\n\n\n$TME\n$300\n$3,000\n$30,000\n\n\n$WWE\n$590\n$5,900\n$59,000\n\n\n$GOOGL\n$410\n$4,100\n$41,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n15.7%\n\n\n\n13. Disney (DIS) will crush Netflix (NFLX) over time as its streaming platform continues to grow by leaps and bounds. Forever stock for me as my 2nd largest individual stock holding while always looking to add cheap shares. Unfortunately, pullbacks have been few and far between meaning I might not be adding shares until the end of 2021.\n14. Baidu (BIDU) My main grab on re-entering the China space. The recent meltdown in stocks from the Hwang family office, Archegos Capital, means that stocks like Baidu are trading at a tremendous discount to where they were just a couple months ago with their fundamentals still intact.\n15. Tencent (TME) Another victim of Archegos Capital, Tencent is a leader in China's music entertainment industry which also initiated a $1B share repurchase buyback program after the crash of its shares.\n16. World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) is one of the few remaining live event media stocks growing globally, while always a potential takeover target from juggernauts like Disney. Plus, late at night, when finding a good streaming movie seems virtually impossible, putting on a mindless WWE match serves as a great way to end the day for me at least.\n17. Alphabet (GOOGL) One of the latest adds to my portfolio from the infamous FANG names which will most likely land in the never sell category. I prefer it currently over the likes of Facebook (FB) due to privacy issues but that might just be a transitory feeling.\nSold:Sold my AT&T (T) as I sold a lot of defensive names to take advantage of the sell off of quality technology stocks.\nThe Financial Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$GBTC\n$2,450\n$24,500\n$245,000\n\n\n$HSBC\n$210\n$2,100\n$21,000\n\n\n$RPLA\n$1,280\n$12,800\n$128,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n16.1%\n\n\n\n18. Bitcoin (GBTC) soared over the back part of 2020 and rallied even more to start 2021 by reaching new all-time highs. Even after the most recent significant pullback, it is still my largest individual stock position as institutions continue to take a greater interest in it. As world banks and the Fed continue to print money like it's going out of style due to COVID-19, alternate money sources like Bitcoin could easily continue to see outsized gains in my opinion. EvenElon Musk likes it. Its pullback to end the month is one of the main reasons for my underperformance to the S&P 500 this month. Still absolutely love it though as my top investment.\n19. HSBC Bank (HSBC) is a legacy holding that might finally see some upside if the United Kingdom can ever get Brexit resolved. That of course, might be a big if.\n20. Finance of America (RPLA) My new value SPAC that goes public on April 1st of 2021. I believe it has a lot of hidden value in the stock which hopefully will be realized upon going public or over its first couple of earnings reports. The goal is to make some nice quick profits in the name and then transfer back into companies like JPMorgan again.\nSold:Sold my stock in JPMorgan (JPM) and BlackRock (BLK) as I took a big position in Finance of America as a value SPAC that I hope to trade out of in the near future after it goes public or after its first earnings report or two.\nThe Consumer Discretionary Sector (Aim = 6% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$TSLA\n$330\n$3,300\n$33,000\n\n\n$TSCO\n$520\n$5,200\n$52,000\n\n\n$MELI\n$290\n$2,900\n$29,000\n\n\n$BABA\n$450\n$4,500\n$45,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n6.5%\n\n\n\n21. Tesla (TSLA) continues to dominate the world of online retail, cloud, and virtually anything else it expands into like no other company in history. Is on my current never-sell list with a small celebration every time I can add another share.\n22. Tractor Supply Company (TSCO) quietly continues to perform as one of the best companies in retail mostly immune to Amazon's dominance. Itsacquisition of Petsensemakes a lot of sense now, especially with the growth of everything pet in the wake of COVID-19.\n23. MercadoLibre (MELI) is Latin America's Amazon. One of the best international stocks in my portfolio that I really should add more to on pullbacks.\n24. Alibaba (BABA) A pillar of Chinese stocks so an obvious add here although it wasn't directly involved in the latest large market sell off. Also the reason I sold my Amazon stock.\nSold:Sold Amazon (AMZN) in order to get some exposure to China stocks including its Chinese counterpart Alibaba.\nThe Consumer Staples Sector (Aim = 6% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$PG\n$500\n$5,000\n$50,000\n\n\n$PEP\n$440\n$4,400\n$44,000\n\n\n$GIS\n$390\n$3,900\n$39,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n5.5%\n\n\n\n25. Procter & Gamble (PG) is a legacy holding that sports a decent growing dividend along with many best in class brands like Olay, Head & Shoulders, Dawn, and Charmin. Always nice to have some stalwarts for the upcoming recessions and depressions.\n26. PepsiCo (PEP) is a phenomenal drink company with brands like Pepsi-Cola, Gatorade, and Tropicana along with amazing growth in the snack category with Frito-Lay that, in my mind, sets it apart from competitors like Coke (KO).\n27. General Mills (GIS) is a legacy holding for me with a great dividend that experienced a huge turnaround during COVID-19 with its brands, including its$8B acquisition of Blue Buffaloin 2018. Its former debt concerns have mostly evaporated as it has shored up its balance sheet and continues to benefit from the stay-at-home movement.\nThe Industrials Sector (Aim = 6% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$J\n$870\n$8,700\n$87,000\n\n\n$SPCE\n$550\n$5,500\n$55,000\n\n\n$AXON\n$420\n$4,200\n$42,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n7.5%\n\n\n\n28. Jacobs Engineering (J) is a legacy holding I have loved for years. A long-time no-debt company that makes super-smart acquisitions now has low debt and has initiated a dividend which it should be able to grow nicely over the coming years. Its focus on carbon neutrality and diversity in its workforce makes it a prime target for the younger generation. It is currently my 10th largest holding in my retirement portfolio.\n29. Virgin Galactic (SPCE) is one of the premier ways to play future commercial space flight. With its next test launch scheduled for May this is a wait and see stock at this time.\n30. Axon (AXON) is the maker of Taser as well as the bodysuits, cameras, and cloud software for officers across the United States. Phenomenal gains in this stock recently as well to start 2021.

Cleveland-Cliffs is well on its way to becoming a fully integrated steelmaker with clout in the U.S. A bipartisan infrastructure bill later in the year could do wonders for the iron and steel markets, but that is all hypothetical at this point and time.\nSold:Sold my Barrick Gold (GOLD) stock as I am tired of taking the hits even with the phenomenal dividend.

Unfortunately, Brazil President Bolsonaro recently named General Joaquim Silva e Luna to replace current CEO Roberto Castello Branco resulting in a huge crisis of faith in the company in its latest scandal.

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

So, clearly, it’s a focus.Thus, as long as the world is drinking coffee, Starbucks will be a winner.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":132,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":346261116,"gmtCreate":1618050281935,"gmtModify":1704706331720,"author":{"id":"3567858522384567","authorId":"3567858522384567","name":"BLsince2020","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97d02643680c78a56541ca446f5244ca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3567858522384567","authorIdStr":"3567858522384567"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"China China China..&nbsp;","listText":"China China China..&nbsp;","text":"China China China..","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/346261116","repostId":"1142324412","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1142324412","pubTimestamp":1617982207,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1142324412?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-09 23:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"XPeng Inc.: A Reawakening","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1142324412","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Valuation is middling but not overvalued like in the past.Recent announcement of capacity expansion in Wuhan lends better operational and sales visibility.Company could breakeven and finally reach positive profits soon; major improvements seen in operating margins.Feared chip shortage  was not a disaster, deliveries are still strong.Government support, China's creation of an EV ecosystem.XPEV's strong deliveries describe not only excellent support from the private sector, but also the Chinese go","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Valuation is middling but not overvalued like in the past.</li>\n <li>Recent announcement of capacity expansion in Wuhan lends better operational and sales visibility.</li>\n <li>Company could breakeven and finally reach positive profits soon; major improvements seen in operating margins.</li>\n <li>Feared chip shortage (i.e. supply disruption) was not a disaster, deliveries are still strong.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e0f3343d69719839f9b8f1d337c3984\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\"><span>Photo by Robert Way/iStock Editorial via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p><b>Introduction</b></p>\n<p>The stock price of&nbsp;XPEV&nbsp;has been converging with the performance of the S&amp;P 500 since March 2021, as compared to its massive outperformance in 4Q2020.

The following points suggest specific positives for XPEV that remain intact despite relatively ebbing momentum on the stock's price (as compared to 4Q2020):</p>\n<ol>\n <li><b>Deliveries met despite fears on chip shortage.</b>While the stock's price momentum appears to have ebbed, recent news continues to remain positive. At an industry level, Chinese vehicle manufacturers XPEV andNIOmanaged to manufacture the expected numbers of vehicle deliveries, despite much feared chip shortages.XPEV chalked&nbsp;in record quarterly deliveries of 13,340 EVs in Q1 2021, +487% over the year and +130% over the month in March.NIO delivered&nbsp;20,060 +423% over the year while Q1 deliveries rose 15.6% to 20,060. The challenge these EV manufacturers face now is not so much the ability to deliver on its numbers, but on being able to meet high expectations for the stock price to gain further traction.</li>\n <li><b>Government support, China's creation of an EV ecosystem.</b>XPEV's strong deliveries describe not only excellent support from the private sector, but also the Chinese government's push to develop this part of its industry. XPEV has entered into an agreement with the city of Wuhan to build a factory with a capacity of 100,000 EV units. This is a very significant piece of news, considering its deliveries of just 5,102 in March 2021. Annualizing this number, the new capacity will be more than the whole of XPEV's total historical annual production. This news is interesting and significant since it was just released this week, suggesting it may have yet to be factored into analysts' forecast numbers. This is made more important as XPEV has always been considered a laggard in production capabilities to its larger cousin NIO. General Chinese government support for the EV ecosystem is strong, and the new facility in Wuhan echoes earlier provincial government financial support ($77m) in Guangdong. The reality is, for EVs to gain traction, government willingness to support infrastructure initiatives are highly important (e.g. permits for charging stations, creating incentives to convert from old polluting vehicles to green vehicles, etc.). With China's tradition of central planning, the EV ecosystem is placed on the right footing.</li>\n <li><b>Listing in Hong Kong adds to investor base and liquidity.</b>Going forward,XPEV,NIO, and&nbsp;LI&nbsp;intend tolistin Hong Kong this year. This is a strategic move, and makes the valuation of these companies less susceptible by US political bashing (e.g. the threat of being de-listed) should it occur, since it reflects a wider geographical base. The valuations of these companies may even get a boost given greater global liquidity due to added trading in the Asian time zone.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Of note, in late March, XPEV held an&nbsp;autonomous driving expedition&nbsp;covering eight cities in China and 3,675 kilometers. The exercise was successful, as minimal human intervention was needed during the expedition and adds another brownie point to XPEV's research and development efforts, placing XPEV on the&nbsp;competitive landscape&nbsp;against rivals such as TSLA and NIO on autonomous driving. Apparently, XPEV's autonomous driving results&nbsp;performed better&nbsp;than TSLA's with fewer human interventions per 100km and better navigation in complex situations.</p>\n<p><b>XPEV's improving financials</b></p>\n<p>Now that we have several quarters of financial data on XPEV, it is worth reviewing how its metrics have been performing. Firstly, market expectations aside, deliveries have been very good as abovementioned, and this is flowing through to revenue numbers. As shown in the below table, growth has been very strong, and revenues are expected to more than double in 2021 and continue to double in 2022. Such growth rates place XPEV at the top end of manufacturing firms, as expected of the fast-growing EV market.</p>\n<p>Another point to note is the improvement in operating margins. As with any \"new tech\" company, initial investments would cause hugely negative operating margins in the beginning. What's important is the company's ability to improve margins and reduce costs over time. In this respect, XPEV has done a good job, with operating margins improving sequentially each quarter. Of note, operating margins started to see major improvements between the Jun-2020 (-142%) and Dec-2020 (-39%) quarters as shown in the table below. Given this trend, the company is likely to breakeven and register positive profits soon, which could be a catalytic re-rating for XPEV. When we pair this analysis with the stock price, it appears that XPEV's recently soft stock price performance is not justified.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the balance sheet is expected to remain strong. Equity to total liabilities &amp; equity is 23% as at Dec-2020. As abovementioned, further capital raises with a forthcoming Hong Kong listing will add to XPEV's cash buffer.</p>\n<p><i>XPEV's performance improvement in both revenue and operating margin trends appear to have been ignored by the market due to recent the broad market capitulation</i></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f8258dce0cc10e8118a23afce7655bed\" tg-width=\"726\" tg-height=\"737\"><span>*EST = estimate by analysts' consensus from SeekingAlpha</span></p>\n<p><b>XPEV's valuation: somewhere in the middle</b></p>\n<p>XPEV's stock price has done well over the last 6 months versus peers.
