On the other hand, the company is highly valued, considering that it has not sold a single EV yet. Entering a position in CCIV thus means that investors get access to one of the most ambitious growth stocks in the EV space, but on the other hand, the high valuation already accounts for a lot of future growth. If anything goes wrong, shares have a lot of downside potential, which makes CCIV/Lucid a high-risk/high-reward investment. That can be a good choice for some, but others will likely favor staying away or opting for lower-risk choices instead.</p>\n<p><b>CCIV Stock Price</b></p>\n<p>Churchill Capital IV, the SPAC that will merge with Lucid Motors, is currently trading at $18 per share, with a market capitalization of $4.7 billion, based on about 260 million shares. This does, however, not mean that Lucid is currently valued at only $4.7 billion. Current shareholders of CCIV will not own 100% of Lucid Motors once the two companies have merged. Instead, current public shareholders of CCIV will own about 13% of the company once the merger is completed, with Churchill sponsors owning an additional 52 million shares:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/152a045a63fef06efefe8ecd8e0d68a2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"222\"><span>Source: CCIVfiling</span></p>\n<p>Based on those numbers, Lucid is valued at around $29 billion right now, which makes Lucid one of the more expensive EV players investors can purchase today. For reference, NIO (NIO) is valued at $56 billion, XPeng (XPEV) is valued at $20 billion, Fisker (FSR) is valued at $3 billion, Lordstown Motors (RIDE) is valued at $1.4 billion, and Kandi (KNDI) is valued at $400 million. Of course, Lucid Motors' current market cap still pales compared to the $600 billion market cap that leading EV player Tesla (TSLA) is trading at.</p>\n<p>Looking at CCIV's share price, we see that those that bought early on when the SPAC went public at $10 are up about 80% in well less than a year, for an outstanding return. On the other hand, those that bought into CCIV during the hype phase when shares were trading as high as the $60s are deep in the red, having lost up to 75% of their investment to date. Valuations do matter, and the lower one got into CCIV, the better - for those that disregarded valuation and that let themselves get blinded by the hype, the Lucid story has so far not been a great one.</p>\n<p><b>Lucid Motors Outlook: Great Products - Great Growth?</b></p>\n<p>Lucid Motors is, so far, a company that hasn't delivered any vehicles yet. The company has done some business designing, manufacturing, and selling high-performance batteries for the FIA Formula E series, but apart from further developing Lucid's tech capabilities, this hasn't done a lot for the company's top line. Lucid will roll out its first commercial vehicle, the Lucid Air, later this year. Recently, management has indicated that the company plans to sell more than 577 Lucid Air vehicles this year (the reasoning for this kind of weirdly precise guidance is unknown), with rapid growth being expected for 2022. About 20,000 Lucid Air vehicles in 2022 have been the target in the past, although management&nbsp;has not committed&nbsp;to that number in recent statements.</p>\n<p>Lucid's Air will be released in four versions, the first one being the highest-priced one, called Lucid Air<i>Dream</i>. It starts at a little over $160,000, but reservations are closed already, as Lucid has enough pre-orders relative to the production that is planned. The other three versions of the Lucid Air, called<i>Grand Touring</i>,<i>Touring</i>, and<i>Pure</i>, will start at $131,000, $87,000, and $70,000 respectively. All four cars feature a relatively similar design, although there are differences when it comes to the material that is used, to power output (480-1,080hp), and to their respective range.</p>\n<p>All in all, the three versions clearly feature characteristics that qualify them for the premium/ultra-premium market segment, which is also reflected in the prices that Lucid Motors seeks from its customers. Cars are generally described as well-designed, and with features such as ultra-fast 900 Volt charging, they offer attractive specs to customers. Cars are sold in the same segment as Mercedes-Benz's (OTCPK:DMLRY) new electric S-class equivalent EQS and Tesla's Model S, and it looks like Lucid should have a lot of success in this space due to its strong design and very competitive specs. This is, however, not an overly large market segment, of course, which is why Lucid can't get to a mass-producer level selling its<i>Air</i>alone.</p>\n<p>The company plans to introduce an SUV later on called<i>Gravity</i>which is scheduled for 2023, although that is, of course, not guaranteed. SUVs are a significantly larger market segment compared to luxury sedans such as the Air, and the Gravity will likely also be sold at a lower price point. This combination should allow Lucid to increase its sales considerably versus the forecasted 20,000 vehicles next year, but the real volume expansion will come when Lucid starts selling its expected $25,000 mass-market model at some point during the 2020s. Lucid has additional sedans and SUVs planned for the future, without announcing any details yet.</p>\n<p>One thing that investors should consider is the strong technological basis Lucid is operating on. This includes plans for over-the-air updates, fast charging with 900V, a charging station network, autonomous driving capabilities, etc. The technological capabilities are exemplarily showcased by the following slide out of Lucid's investor presentation:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/54bc0819be8bab7ac087e2d312e6806d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"353\"><span>Source:Lucid presentation</span></p>\n<p>Despite being a rather small company still, Lucid does not only deliver a technological performance that is on par with peers, but actually way ahead of what other manufacturers are offering right now, at least in terms of efficiency.</p>\n<p>Lucid also has a highly experienced management team, with key personal having previously worked at companies such as Tesla, Jaguar, Audi, Ford (F), and so on. The combination of strong tech, great design, and industry experience results in an above-average chance for success in the EV market that will be highly competitive in coming years. Additionally, Lucid also has plans to become a player in energy storage, following Tesla's path to some degree - although it should be noted that Tesla's energy storage business is not profitable yet. There is, of course, not guarantee for success, and it can't be ruled out that Lucid will eventually fail, although I believe that this is an unlikely scenario.</p>\n<p><b>CCIV Stock Forecast</b></p>\n<p>Looking at Lucid's models and its technological capabilities, it seems highly likely that the company will be able to generate compelling growth in the coming years. This does, however, not automatically translate into share price gains for CCIV/Lucid. Growth prospects for a company, or even an industry, do not necessarily mean that equity investors will see gains - sometimes, growth is already priced in. This is clearly shown by the fate of many tech stocks during the dot.com bubble when their underlying business growth remained intact, but shares still sold off massively, as prices already more than accounted for future growth prospects.</p>\n<p>The same may be true for Lucid/CCIV and/or other EV stocks, as valuations in this industry are quite high across the board. Before investing, investors also should consider the following issues that hold true for the automobile industry in general, including legacy names: The automobile industry is cyclical, which means that companies, generally, are vulnerable to recessions. On top of that, automobile companies are capital intensive, generate relatively low returns on capital, and don't operate with strong margins. This is in stark contrast to more attractive industries such as tech, where margins and returns on capital are way higher while resilience versus recessions is superior as well. This isn't a Lucid-specific threat or issue, but something that investors should keep in mind when making any type of EV investment. In a similar way, investors should also always consider that the EV market is highly competitive already and might become even more competitive in coming years, as more legacy automakers introduce EV models, while government support for the industry<i>might</i>fade.</p>\n<p>Considering these facts, still, a case can be made that CCIV is attractively priced right now.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a68f85a750397e4ee7c3cfc1bf222a9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"356\"><span>Source: Lucid presentation</span></p>\n<p>Lucid forecasts revenue of $10 billion for 2024. Even when we cut that by 20% in order to factor in that management expectations may be too aggressive, even an $8 billion revenue estimate for 2024 could result in ample upside. Tesla is trading for 18 times trailing revenue (according to YCharts), so by that logic, Lucid may be valued at $144 billion at the end of 2024. Even when we cut this estimate by another 50% in order to account for the fact that Tesla may be overvalued right now (something I personally do believe), a $72 billion market for Lucid in 2024 would leave ample upside potential. Right now, the company is valued at $29 billion, so in this scenario, shares could rise by about 150% over the next three and a half years - while still trading at a massive discount to Tesla, and even when we assume that management's guidance will be missed by 20%. In a similar fashion, one could also show a large discount versus Tesla's valuation based on expected deliveries, EBITDA, and free cash flow in coming years. Tesla, for example, trades at 270 times trailing free cash flows. Since Lucid expects $1.5 billion in free cash flow for 2026, shares might have an upside potential of several hundred percentage points over the coming five years - even when we do, again, cut Tesla's valuation in half and assume that management's estimates are 20% too high.</p>\n<p><b>Is CCIV Stock A Buy Or Sell</b></p>\n<p>I don't think that CCIV stock is a sell - those that own it should have sold at $50 or $60 when the valuation was outrageously high. Selling now, when shares are down so much over the last couple of weeks, wouldn't make sense, I believe.</p>\n<p>Does this mean that CCIV is a buy now? It depends, I'd say. The company has a great product coming out, is well-positioned from a technological perspective, and if management can deliver on its growth goals, shares are way cheaper than those of peers such as Tesla. On the other hand, it is not at all known whether Lucid's ambitious growth goals will indeed be met, and compared to legacy automakers, Lucid looks rather expensive. CCIV, which will turn into shares of Lucid, looks like one of the better picks in the EV space I believe, based on its growth outlook and strong tech. But since the whole EV industry looks rather expensive, that may not mean too much - depending on how bullish you are on the EV space in general. I personally would rate CCIV a hold for most, and a potential buy for those with some appetite for risk who are looking for an investment with a strong return outlook in a bullish scenario.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Is Churchill Capital Stock A Buy Or Sell?

On the other hand, the company is highly valued, considering that it has not sold a single EV yet. Entering a position in CCIV thus means that investors get access to one of the most ambitious growth stocks in the EV space, but on the other hand, the high valuation already accounts for a lot of future growth. If anything goes wrong, shares have a lot of downside potential, which makes CCIV/Lucid a high-risk/high-reward investment. That can be a good choice for some, but others will likely favor staying away or opting for lower-risk choices instead.\nCCIV Stock Price\nChurchill Capital IV, the SPAC that will merge with Lucid Motors, is currently trading at $18 per share, with a market capitalization of $4.7 billion, based on about 260 million shares.

The bottom photo is the same for the 2021 23.5\" iMac which is replacing it. It's a bit of an unfair comparison, and I'll explain why, but what you see is the benefits to Apple of designing their own ARM systems-on-a-chip (SoCs), instead of using Intel's (INTC) CPUs.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Much smaller logic board. There is an array of chips that used to be on the logic board that are now integrated into to Apple's M1 SoC.</li>\n <li>Because ARM chips require less power and heat dissipation, the fan assembly also takes up much less space.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The result is that Apple can open up the design of the iMac. The first part is that they were able to put a bigger screen in there, 23.5\" versus the 21.5\" they have had at the bottom of the iMac line since 2009. That's about a 20% increase in screen area and pixels, something they were unable to do for 12 years with Intel hardware.</p>\n<p>Second, the iMac profile went from this:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/44635ae61932e01dee0abc5c42b6182b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"155\"><span>Apple video screenshot.

Steve Jobs' vision of a desktop computer that fades into the background when you're using it, and looks great when you're not gets much closer than last week.</p>\n<p><b>What Is M1?</b></p>\n<p>In 2008, less than a year after the first iPhone was in the wild, Apple bought a small company working on low-power chips, P.A. Semiconductor. As is their pattern outside of Beats, Apple was buying the IP and talent, not any product. From that came Apple's chip design unit, now widely considered the best in the world.</p>\n<p>The first chip that went into a product was the A4 in iPhone 4 in 2010, which replaced the Samsung ARM SoCs they had been using. Samsung was already a handset competitor, and being dependent on them for the iPhone SoC was unacceptable. At first it was fine that these were as good as Samsung's and Qualcomm's (QCOM), but they are now widely recognized as the best smartphone SoCs. It's also a reason they have been able to dominate the tablet market for so long.</p>\n<p>ARM is a UK company, owned by SoftBank (OTCPK:SFTBY), that does not make chips. They make an instruction set architecture that competes primarily with Intel's x86, used exclusively in PCs and data center, and open source RISC-V, currently mostly used for IoT chips. An instruction set is the very basic way in which software talks to hardware.</p>\n<p>They also design core and reference designs for both CPUs (the main brain) and GPUs (graphics). All this IP gets licensed by the likes of Apple, Qualcomm, Samsung, Intel, AMD (AMD) and Nvidia (NVDA), just to name a few. Apple only licenses the instruction set and uses their own cores built around it. ARM is the subject a proposed $40 billion acquisition by Nvidia that I have&nbsp;believed since the beginning&nbsp;is unlikely to pass regulatory muster. We'll talk a bit more about that when we get to the data center.</p>\n<p>Macs have been built around Intel chips since 2005. What does Apple get by rolling their own ARM chips they can't get from Intel? The first things are what Intel's customers have been wanting for a while, and Intel has been unable to deliver: less power consumption, and more customization without impacting performance. Let's start with the last one first.</p>\n<p>When the first M1 Macs were released last year, even people who had high expectations like I did were surprised at how capable they were. As always, AnandTech does the best&nbsp;publicly available testing. A couple things to keep in mind as we look at this:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>M1 is a laptop-class chip for the low end of their Mac line. It is, in another way of thinking, the worst M-series SoC we will see.</li>\n <li>This review was from November 2020 when the first M1 Macs hit the streets, and both Intel and AMD have updated their lines since then.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Here, we look at single-core performance, as this is the vast majority of what customers who buy these Macs are doing with them:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a6add7810be706421754e215de958fc5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"738\"><span>AnandTech. Top score is integer; bottom score is floating point. Gray = ARM; blue = Intel; red/orange = AMD.</span></p>\n<p>Two of the top three places go to Apple chips, and one of those chips powers a cell phone. Intel's best is in fourth place. But it's actually worse than that, because AnandTech included Intel and AMD's top end desktop/gaming chips. Yes, in November, Apple had a cell phone chip that was faster than Intel's best Core i9 desktop/gaming chip in the most common tasks.</p>\n<p>So that's the first part: M1 performance is not just better than other laptop CPUs, but bests Intel and AMD desktop/gaming CPUs. That brings us to the second part of this, which is power consumption and its child, heat dissipation. Everything you own can run faster at a higher power cost, but the silicon would melt without elaborate and expensive cooling systems. Many projects at Apple and every other hardware company have been killed over heat dissipation issues. It is one of the central challenges of hardware design. In laptop design, the chip's power consumption is a big determiner of battery life, so it's doubly important there.</p>\n<p>Apple does not release this sort of data, but TDP is a measurement of CPU power consumption under full load. AnandTech estimates it at 20-24 Watts in the M1. The closest Intel and AMD could get to M1 in performance back in November were desktop/gaming chips that hit 125 Watts and 105 Watts TDP respectively. Their best laptop chips, which underperform the M1 by a lot, were 28 Watts for Intel, and 45 Watts for AMD.</p>\n<p>A good comparison is the 2020 Mac mini versus its Intel predecessor, the 2018 Mac mini. It is the only M1 desktop Mac in the wild right now, without the power constraints of a laptop. This is total power consumption of the whole box.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1f40c3042fe1bcadc2fc2bb599cf3d21\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"103\"></p>\n<p>The M1 allowed Apple to reduce power consumption of the whole computer by about two-thirds both at idle and at full bore.</p>\n<p>Compared to M1, the x86 chips from Intel and AMD are power-hungry heat monsters that don't even perform as well. This is the Client Group at Intel, 51% of revenue in 2020, and 64% of operating income. x86 is doomed, and if Intel doesn't shift soon, they will be too. They have time, but it is dwindling.</p>\n<p>There is a bit of irony here, because performance-per-Watt is exactly how Steve Jobs framed the decision to move to Intel from PowerPC in 2005.</p>\n<p>But the comparison with x86 gets even more dramatic when we consider customization, the last thing Intel's customers have been asking for and not getting. In two years, they will finally have that with the opening of Intel's new foundries which will support custom packaging. The M1 is a great example of why this trend will continue to grow.</p>\n<p>The days of the general-purpose CPU doing everything have been ending slowly for a long time now. A CPU can do almost everything a programmer wants it to, but for many things this comes at too high a cost of power consumption and processor time. For over a decade, the GPU has picked up a growing amount of this work, but that is also inefficient in its own ways.</p>\n<p>Enter the ARM system-on-a-chip. When you buy a laptop chip from Intel or AMD, it has a CPU, GPU, cache, and that's it. The SoC concept is loading more things on to the chip die. This offloads less efficient tasks from the CPU and GPU, reduces the number of chips on the main logic board, and decreases power consumption and heat.</p>\n<p>So let's get back to those two images. The reason this iMac is so interesting is that though it is the fourth M1 Mac, it is the first one that is designed around the M1, not a reused design from the previous Intel-based generation. But the reason the comparison with the 2019 21.5\" iMac is a little unfair is because it now has become clear that this model has been targeted for a while by Apple as the first \"true\" M1 Mac. The 2019 model is already over 2 years old, and it was a meager upgrade to the 2017 model, except for the latest generation Intel chip. The iMac team spent that four years making the 2021 iMac.</p>\n<p>The big difference is that in 2019, Apple was still putting hard drives in the base model iMac. Hard drives create a lot of heat and power consumption compared to their replacement, solid-state drives, so that's why the comparison is a little unfair. So let's look at those photos again with some annotation.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01399dcd836eaaee0bdf3071f875a96e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"419\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e1f314bdbdf959c9428b9f8a8aa02b80\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"358\"></p>\n<p>So now in the top one from 2019, you can see where the hard drive went, and why that added to heat dissipation challenges. But let's focus on the very big main logic board on the right of the top image. Flipping it over where the action is:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7fc0e84df610834b61ecc9631783e69c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"371\"><span>Annotated Apple video screenshot</span></p>\n<p>The top left red box is the RAM which is now attached directly to the M1 die. Under it is the Intel Core i3 8100. The top right is Intel's Thunderbolt high-speed I/O, and below that is the AMD GPU. Thunderbolt and the GPU are now on the M1 die, and the RAM is attached directly to the die in a much smaller package. But they didn't stop there. Only about half the M1 die is CPU, GPU and cache. In addition to that, it now has:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Secure Enclave and cryptography accelerators.</li>\n <li>Apple's machine learning cores and accelerators, which had never gone in a Mac before, and are a big part of their future ambitions.</li>\n <li>Specialized units to offload frequent video, audio and photo tasks from the CPU and GPU.</li>\n <li>All I/O, including Intel's Thunderbolt, which Intel has never put on a SoC.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>These are Apple's priorities. Qualcomm, as another example, puts 5G connectivity on their smartphone and PC ARM SoCs, which makes them a unique offering. With ARM, everyone gets the chip they want, for their priorities and customers. Details are still a little thin, but Intel will be offering this type of customization in their new foundries with custom packaging for x86, ARM or RISC-V cores. In my opinion, this was the most important part of the foundry announcement. We should expect the foundries to be operational in a couple of years.</p>\n<p>Another area of customization is within the CPU cores themselves. In the ARM world, this is known as \"big.LITTLE,\" and that is not a typo. The idea is that most things people do on their PCs, tablets or smartphones, like typing this article, are not very demanding on resources. But there are times when we do need lots of performance. The LITTLE cores are optimized for power consumption, and do most of the work. But when there's heavy lifting to be done, the big cores pitch in on those tasks. The M1 has 4 of each.</p>\n<p>So let's add it up so far. Switching from Intel to ARM allows Apple to reduce power consumption by two-thirds on desktops, less on laptops, with even better performance than they were getting from Intel. They also get to put a host of other things on the die that offload inefficient tasks from the CPU and GPU. The net effect of all that is this:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99acb1ab262241f7195d5ef491c64ac\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"361\"><span>Annotated Apple video screenshot.</span></p>\n<p>The entire computer now fits in the lower bezel. That sound you hear is my head exploding. That allows Apple to make iMac much thinner and lighter, and bump up to 23.5\" while barely making the footprint bigger. In the end, all this work on chip design is about that final product for Apple.</p>\n<p>This is a long section, but I am not done. There are two other very important things Apple gets by switching to ARM:</p>\n<ol>\n <li>They control their own roadmap, and are no longer dependent on Intel pushing their platform in a direction that Apple wants. Intel designs chips for a wide range of OEMs. Apple designs chips for Apple only.</li>\n <li>We don't have hard figures on this, but Apple almost certainly saves money on M1 when you add it all up.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>This is a home run from every single angle.</p>\n<p><b>What About Everyone Else?</b></p>\n<p>Apple was still Intel's fourth biggest customer at 8% as estimated by Bloomberg in 2019 before the M1 announcement. The top three are the PC/server makers Dell (DELL), Lenovo (OTCPK:LNVGY), and HP(NYSE:HPQ)who together accounted for 39% of Intel revenue in 2020, 41% in 2019. You can bet that some of the first M1 Mac orders went to engineers at those companies so they could reverse engineer what Apple did.</p>\n<p>Microsoft (MSFT) already has Windows 10 for ARM, but the PC makers are missing a huge piece of the puzzle - a great ARM hardware platform for Windows/Chromebook like what Apple did with the M1. Right now, a lot of Chromebooks and a few Windows PCs are built around Qualcomm's&nbsp;Snapdragon 8 compute platform. Despite the unique feature of 5G onboard, it is widely disliked for being slow, as are many competing platforms. Microsoft is reportedly also working on their own ARM chip for their Surface line.</p>\n<p>But Qualcomm just made a very big but under-appreciated acquisition that recently closed. Gerrard Williams led Apple's chip design unit in the period it went from nothing to the best in the world. In 2019, he left Apple to start his own company, Nuvia. Reportedly, Williams wanted to make a data center chip, Apple did not, and so he left to do it elsewhere. He had assembled a pretty impressive team of chip design all-stars. Apple is suing Williams, and vice-versa.</p>\n<p>What Nuvia was working on when Qualcomm snatched them up were ARM cores with an even better power-performance profile than Apple's, or so they claimed. These were intended for densely-packed data center chips, like Ampere Computing's&nbsp;80-core ARM data center chip.</p>\n<p>I believe Qualcomm wants to get there is as well, but first they need to solve their current problems:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Their smartphone/tablet SoCs now trail Apple badly.</li>\n <li>Their compute platform is underwhelming.</li>\n <li>Their automotive SoCs are undifferentiated ARM chips.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Integrating Nuvia's cores solves all these problems at once. But for our discussion, the compute platform is the big issue. Once they are able to integrate Nuvia's cores into that, likely in 2023 at the earliest, there will be a really powerful Windows/Chromebook platform that competes head on with x86 PCs.</p>\n<p>Gerrard Williams is now the SVP of Engineering at Qualcomm, and the Nuvia team is also there working under him.</p>\n<p><b>Data Center</b></p>\n<p>There are also big ARM moves in the data center happening right now. AnandTech recently&nbsp;tested Intel's new Ice Lake data center chips, and they included the Ampere 80-core ARM chip I mentioned a few paragraphs ago along with AMD chips. Here, we look at multicore performance, more important for big data center loads:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f600bd68ecdecdf305b19decfa9ab8a0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"492\"><span>AnandTech. Integer tests on left; floating-point on right. Gray = ARM; blue = Intel; red/orange = AMD.</span></p>\n<p>The top numbers you see are all 2-socket logic board designs (\"2S\" in chart) with two CPUs on them, including the 160-core Ampere board. With Intel's stumbles, AMD leads the pack now, Ampere a close second, and Intel trailing. Keep in mind a few things about this comparison:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Ampere is a small, private company whose R&amp;D budget is a fraction of Intel's and AMD's.</li>\n <li>This is Intel's newest chip, just released. Ampere will soon have a 256-core 2-socket board design that may wind up even topping AMD.</li>\n <li>Ampere's chip is about half the price of the Intel and AMD chips at the top there.</li>\n <li>It also uses less power, though the difference is not as dramatic as the M1 comparisons we looked at. Power consumption is a key component of data center Opex.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>This is what a tiny company with a tiny R&amp;D budget can pull off. What about someone bigger? Nvidia has just announced its upcoming GRACE processors that combine their top GPUs with ARM CPUs linked together by their ultra-fast NVLink 4 bridge. Combined with the data-processing units (DPUs) they purchased with Mellanox, Nvidia is putting together a data center beast that will be entirely unique when it is released in 2023.</p>\n<p>For the near-term, this is targeted at huge AI loads on supercomputers. But if the last 30 years have taught us anything about the data center, it's that today's supercomputer-scale tasks eventually become the common tasks of tomorrow. All these chips, the CPU-GPU-DPU combo, remain separate, as the requirements are too high to do what Apple did with M1. But Nvidia's eventual goal is to get them on one chip. Right now, no one is skating to where the puck is headed in the data center like Nvidia, and it relies on ARM CPU cores at the base of the stack.</p>\n<p>To be clear, Nvidia can pull all this off as an ARM licensee. What they want is control over the roadmap to focus it more on ARM's Neoverse data center cores, where their interests lay.</p>\n<p>This is why they are willing to make this bold $40 billion offer, though most of that is stock valued at $485 per share, well below today's price. Anyway, I have believed from the beginning that this deal will not go off. There is a lot of focus on the UK aspect of this with the inevitable news that UK regulators were&nbsp;going to frisk the deal. I'm not sure why anyone was surprised by that. This is the crown-jewel of UK tech.</p>\n<p>But the issues are much bigger in the US and China. In the US, every ARM licensee has to be terrified by this. The bottom line is that ARM has never been part of a company that competes with its customers. It was independent when SoftBank bought it. If Nvidia bought it, they would have control over the roadmap, may take focus away from smartphone chips, and as a practical matter will have first crack at everything new. So far to my knowledge, only Qualcomm has filed a brief in opposition, but I expect more.</p>\n<p>But I also don't think the Chinese government is going to allow such important IP fall into the hands of a US company given the political tensions, and what appears to be a bifurcation of technology that I don't think will reverse in the Biden administration. Chinese regulators have leverage through the ARM China joint venture. This is a long, complicated story, and since this is already a long, complicated article, I will skip it. I will happily provide details in the comments for the curious.</p>\n<p>Just the other day, Chinese company, Longsoon announced a&nbsp;new instruction set architecture. There are a lot of ways this can go, because politics are involved now. But regardless, Citi thinks there's a&nbsp;10% chance the deal goes through. I think that's closer to zero. Again, Nvidia can pull off their plans as an ARM licensee, but it puts up obstacles. They will also lose the $1.25 billion breakup penalty.</p>\n<p><b>The Supply Chain Bites Back</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/553aae2db27e064c33f7ae94963c20d3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"449\"><span>Apple website screenshot</span></p>\n<p>Apple usually does spring product announcements in March, not April. The main products announced will not be available until the second half of May. Make what you like of that, but most of the rumors surrounding this have focused on display panel supply.</p>\n<p>Also, the 4/20 date of the announcements gives a little more clarity as to why Tim Cook was not at Congressional hearings the next day. From Apple's letter to Senators Amy Klobuchar and Mike Lee from 4/11:</p>\n<blockquote>\n We simply sought alternative dates in light of upcoming matters that have been scheduled for some time and that touch on similar issues.\"\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Other Announcements</b></p>\n<p>Quickly:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>The iPad Pro is the first one really worthy of the \"Pro\" name. They are already widely used in film production, but this new one will be very popular on film sets, especially the larger one. This is a marginal market for Apple, but an important one to them.</li>\n <li>Paid subscriptions for podcasts just add a new line to services revenue. These need not be large, but they add up. I don't foresee this as any kind of business on the scale of the App Store, which is what it would need to be to move the needle.</li>\n <li>I'll be back regarding AirTags when we have more details on how they work in edge cases. Ultimately, if they sell well, it will increase the size of the Find My network, which has large implications across all Apple products.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Upshot for Apple and the Rest</b></p>\n<p>That Apple is making the best computers in their low range, and everyone else's midrange, is now beyond question. This is one of those things like iPod, iPhone, iPod, Watch and AirPods where Apple puts out something that everyone else immediately sets out to copy. They are hindered right now by a lack of a great Windows/Chromebook platform like M1, but I do not believe that will last.</p>\n<p>But returning to Apple, 2020 was the biggest calendar year ever for Mac and iPad because of this:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ba94e60b7cdab1d6504c6b747eb15c0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"366\"></p>\n<p>As it relates to Apple:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/201e3153a7236904b0c38e403d93e12c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"438\"></p>\n<p>In the first place, with the vaccination campaign going well, I don't think this sort of demand can continue. Also, as you see, Apple's business tends to be very seasonal, and it is about to drop off on that. Mac gets a little boost in Apple's Q4, the back-to-school quarter.

I think they’ve been working on it for 3-4 years.\nIt ushers in a new era of PC design centered on the ARM instruction set, not Intel’s long-dominant x86.\nApple is no longer only the Mac company, so this trend will have less effect on them than others.\nBut it also highlights a key portion of my long-term Apple bull thesis.\n\nPhoto by Nikada/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nARM Opens Up PC Design\nThis is an article is mostly about two images, and why they represent a revolution in the PC business, and soon in the data center:\n\nApple video screenshots\nThe top image is Apple's (AAPL) exploded view of their 2019 21.5\" iMac's main logic board and fan assembly. The bottom photo is the same for the 2021 23.5\" iMac which is replacing it. It's a bit of an unfair comparison, and I'll explain why, but what you see is the benefits to Apple of designing their own ARM systems-on-a-chip (SoCs), instead of using Intel's (INTC) CPUs.\n\nMuch smaller logic board. There is an array of chips that used to be on the logic board that are now integrated into to Apple's M1 SoC.\nBecause ARM chips require less power and heat dissipation, the fan assembly also takes up much less space.\n\nThe result is that Apple can open up the design of the iMac. The first part is that they were able to put a bigger screen in there, 23.5\" versus the 21.5\" they have had at the bottom of the iMac line since 2009. That's about a 20% increase in screen area and pixels, something they were unable to do for 12 years with Intel hardware.\nSecond, the iMac profile went from this:\nApple video screenshot. My favorite will always be the second from the left, Luxo Jr.\nTo this:\nApple video screenshot\nThe bulge is finally gone. Steve Jobs' vision of a desktop computer that fades into the background when you're using it, and looks great when you're not gets much closer than last week.\nWhat Is M1?\nIn 2008, less than a year after the first iPhone was in the wild, Apple bought a small company working on low-power chips, P.A. Semiconductor. As is their pattern outside of Beats, Apple was buying the IP and talent, not any product. From that came Apple's chip design unit, now widely considered the best in the world.\nThe first chip that went into a product was the A4 in iPhone 4 in 2010, which replaced the Samsung ARM SoCs they had been using. Samsung was already a handset competitor, and being dependent on them for the iPhone SoC was unacceptable. At first it was fine that these were as good as Samsung's and Qualcomm's (QCOM), but they are now widely recognized as the best smartphone SoCs. It's also a reason they have been able to dominate the tablet market for so long.\nARM is a UK company, owned by SoftBank (OTCPK:SFTBY), that does not make chips. They make an instruction set architecture that competes primarily with Intel's x86, used exclusively in PCs and data center, and open source RISC-V, currently mostly used for IoT chips. An instruction set is the very basic way in which software talks to hardware.\nThey also design core and reference designs for both CPUs (the main brain) and GPUs (graphics). All this IP gets licensed by the likes of Apple, Qualcomm, Samsung, Intel, AMD (AMD) and Nvidia (NVDA), just to name a few. Apple only licenses the instruction set and uses their own cores built around it. ARM is the subject a proposed $40 billion acquisition by Nvidia that I have believed since the beginning is unlikely to pass regulatory muster. We'll talk a bit more about that when we get to the data center.\nMacs have been built around Intel chips since 2005. What does Apple get by rolling their own ARM chips they can't get from Intel? The first things are what Intel's customers have been wanting for a while, and Intel has been unable to deliver: less power consumption, and more customization without impacting performance. Let's start with the last one first.\nWhen the first M1 Macs were released last year, even people who had high expectations like I did were surprised at how capable they were. As always, AnandTech does the best publicly available testing. A couple things to keep in mind as we look at this:\n\nM1 is a laptop-class chip for the low end of their Mac line. It is, in another way of thinking, the worst M-series SoC we will see.\nThis review was from November 2020 when the first M1 Macs hit the streets, and both Intel and AMD have updated their lines since then.\n\nHere, we look at single-core performance, as this is the vast majority of what customers who buy these Macs are doing with them:\nAnandTech. Top score is integer; bottom score is floating point. Gray = ARM; blue = Intel; red/orange = AMD.\nTwo of the top three places go to Apple chips, and one of those chips powers a cell phone. Intel's best is in fourth place. But it's actually worse than that, because AnandTech included Intel and AMD's top end desktop/gaming chips. Yes, in November, Apple had a cell phone chip that was faster than Intel's best Core i9 desktop/gaming chip in the most common tasks.\nSo that's the first part: M1 performance is not just better than other laptop CPUs, but bests Intel and AMD desktop/gaming CPUs. That brings us to the second part of this, which is power consumption and its child, heat dissipation. Everything you own can run faster at a higher power cost, but the silicon would melt without elaborate and expensive cooling systems. Many projects at Apple and every other hardware company have been killed over heat dissipation issues. It is one of the central challenges of hardware design. In laptop design, the chip's power consumption is a big determiner of battery life, so it's doubly important there.\nApple does not release this sort of data, but TDP is a measurement of CPU power consumption under full load. AnandTech estimates it at 20-24 Watts in the M1. The closest Intel and AMD could get to M1 in performance back in November were desktop/gaming chips that hit 125 Watts and 105 Watts TDP respectively. Their best laptop chips, which underperform the M1 by a lot, were 28 Watts for Intel, and 45 Watts for AMD.\nA good comparison is the 2020 Mac mini versus its Intel predecessor, the 2018 Mac mini. It is the only M1 desktop Mac in the wild right now, without the power constraints of a laptop. This is total power consumption of the whole box.\n\nThe M1 allowed Apple to reduce power consumption of the whole computer by about two-thirds both at idle and at full bore.\nCompared to M1, the x86 chips from Intel and AMD are power-hungry heat monsters that don't even perform as well. This is the Client Group at Intel, 51% of revenue in 2020, and 64% of operating income. x86 is doomed, and if Intel doesn't shift soon, they will be too. They have time, but it is dwindling.\nThere is a bit of irony here, because performance-per-Watt is exactly how Steve Jobs framed the decision to move to Intel from PowerPC in 2005.\nBut the comparison with x86 gets even more dramatic when we consider customization, the last thing Intel's customers have been asking for and not getting. In two years, they will finally have that with the opening of Intel's new foundries which will support custom packaging. The M1 is a great example of why this trend will continue to grow.\nThe days of the general-purpose CPU doing everything have been ending slowly for a long time now. A CPU can do almost everything a programmer wants it to, but for many things this comes at too high a cost of power consumption and processor time. For over a decade, the GPU has picked up a growing amount of this work, but that is also inefficient in its own ways.\nEnter the ARM system-on-a-chip. When you buy a laptop chip from Intel or AMD, it has a CPU, GPU, cache, and that's it. The SoC concept is loading more things on to the chip die. This offloads less efficient tasks from the CPU and GPU, reduces the number of chips on the main logic board, and decreases power consumption and heat.\nSo let's get back to those two images. The reason this iMac is so interesting is that though it is the fourth M1 Mac, it is the first one that is designed around the M1, not a reused design from the previous Intel-based generation. But the reason the comparison with the 2019 21.5\" iMac is a little unfair is because it now has become clear that this model has been targeted for a while by Apple as the first \"true\" M1 Mac. The 2019 model is already over 2 years old, and it was a meager upgrade to the 2017 model, except for the latest generation Intel chip. The iMac team spent that four years making the 2021 iMac.\nThe big difference is that in 2019, Apple was still putting hard drives in the base model iMac. Hard drives create a lot of heat and power consumption compared to their replacement, solid-state drives, so that's why the comparison is a little unfair. So let's look at those photos again with some annotation.\n\nSo now in the top one from 2019, you can see where the hard drive went, and why that added to heat dissipation challenges. But let's focus on the very big main logic board on the right of the top image. Flipping it over where the action is:\nAnnotated Apple video screenshot\nThe top left red box is the RAM which is now attached directly to the M1 die. Under it is the Intel Core i3 8100. The top right is Intel's Thunderbolt high-speed I/O, and below that is the AMD GPU. Thunderbolt and the GPU are now on the M1 die, and the RAM is attached directly to the die in a much smaller package. But they didn't stop there. Only about half the M1 die is CPU, GPU and cache. In addition to that, it now has:\n\nSecure Enclave and cryptography accelerators.\nApple's machine learning cores and accelerators, which had never gone in a Mac before, and are a big part of their future ambitions.\nSpecialized units to offload frequent video, audio and photo tasks from the CPU and GPU.\nAll I/O, including Intel's Thunderbolt, which Intel has never put on a SoC.\n\nThese are Apple's priorities. Qualcomm, as another example, puts 5G connectivity on their smartphone and PC ARM SoCs, which makes them a unique offering. With ARM, everyone gets the chip they want, for their priorities and customers. Details are still a little thin, but Intel will be offering this type of customization in their new foundries with custom packaging for x86, ARM or RISC-V cores. In my opinion, this was the most important part of the foundry announcement. We should expect the foundries to be operational in a couple of years.\nAnother area of customization is within the CPU cores themselves. In the ARM world, this is known as \"big.LITTLE,\" and that is not a typo. The idea is that most things people do on their PCs, tablets or smartphones, like typing this article, are not very demanding on resources. But there are times when we do need lots of performance. The LITTLE cores are optimized for power consumption, and do most of the work. But when there's heavy lifting to be done, the big cores pitch in on those tasks. The M1 has 4 of each.\nSo let's add it up so far. Switching from Intel to ARM allows Apple to reduce power consumption by two-thirds on desktops, less on laptops, with even better performance than they were getting from Intel. They also get to put a host of other things on the die that offload inefficient tasks from the CPU and GPU. The net effect of all that is this:\nAnnotated Apple video screenshot.\nThe entire computer now fits in the lower bezel. That sound you hear is my head exploding. That allows Apple to make iMac much thinner and lighter, and bump up to 23.5\" while barely making the footprint bigger. In the end, all this work on chip design is about that final product for Apple.\nThis is a long section, but I am not done. There are two other very important things Apple gets by switching to ARM:\n\nThey control their own roadmap, and are no longer dependent on Intel pushing their platform in a direction that Apple wants. Intel designs chips for a wide range of OEMs. Apple designs chips for Apple only.\nWe don't have hard figures on this, but Apple almost certainly saves money on M1 when you add it all up.\n\nThis is a home run from every single angle.\nWhat About Everyone Else?\nApple was still Intel's fourth biggest customer at 8% as estimated by Bloomberg in 2019 before the M1 announcement. The top three are the PC/server makers Dell (DELL), Lenovo (OTCPK:LNVGY), and HP(NYSE:HPQ)who together accounted for 39% of Intel revenue in 2020, 41% in 2019. You can bet that some of the first M1 Mac orders went to engineers at those companies so they could reverse engineer what Apple did.\nMicrosoft (MSFT) already has Windows 10 for ARM, but the PC makers are missing a huge piece of the puzzle - a great ARM hardware platform for Windows/Chromebook like what Apple did with the M1. Right now, a lot of Chromebooks and a few Windows PCs are built around Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 compute platform. Despite the unique feature of 5G onboard, it is widely disliked for being slow, as are many competing platforms. Microsoft is reportedly also working on their own ARM chip for their Surface line.\nBut Qualcomm just made a very big but under-appreciated acquisition that recently closed. Gerrard Williams led Apple's chip design unit in the period it went from nothing to the best in the world. In 2019, he left Apple to start his own company, Nuvia. Reportedly, Williams wanted to make a data center chip, Apple did not, and so he left to do it elsewhere. He had assembled a pretty impressive team of chip design all-stars. Apple is suing Williams, and vice-versa.\nWhat Nuvia was working on when Qualcomm snatched them up were ARM cores with an even better power-performance profile than Apple's, or so they claimed. These were intended for densely-packed data center chips, like Ampere Computing's 80-core ARM data center chip.\nI believe Qualcomm wants to get there is as well, but first they need to solve their current problems:\n\nTheir smartphone/tablet SoCs now trail Apple badly.\nTheir compute platform is underwhelming.\nTheir automotive SoCs are undifferentiated ARM chips.\n\nIntegrating Nuvia's cores solves all these problems at once. But for our discussion, the compute platform is the big issue. Once they are able to integrate Nuvia's cores into that, likely in 2023 at the earliest, there will be a really powerful Windows/Chromebook platform that competes head on with x86 PCs.\nGerrard Williams is now the SVP of Engineering at Qualcomm, and the Nuvia team is also there working under him.\nData Center\nThere are also big ARM moves in the data center happening right now. AnandTech recently tested Intel's new Ice Lake data center chips, and they included the Ampere 80-core ARM chip I mentioned a few paragraphs ago along with AMD chips. Here, we look at multicore performance, more important for big data center loads:\nAnandTech. Integer tests on left; floating-point on right. Gray = ARM; blue = Intel; red/orange = AMD.\nThe top numbers you see are all 2-socket logic board designs (\"2S\" in chart) with two CPUs on them, including the 160-core Ampere board. With Intel's stumbles, AMD leads the pack now, Ampere a close second, and Intel trailing. Keep in mind a few things about this comparison:\n\nAmpere is a small, private company whose R&D budget is a fraction of Intel's and AMD's.\nThis is Intel's newest chip, just released. Ampere will soon have a 256-core 2-socket board design that may wind up even topping AMD.\nAmpere's chip is about half the price of the Intel and AMD chips at the top there.\nIt also uses less power, though the difference is not as dramatic as the M1 comparisons we looked at. Power consumption is a key component of data center Opex.\n\nThis is what a tiny company with a tiny R&D budget can pull off. What about someone bigger? Nvidia has just announced its upcoming GRACE processors that combine their top GPUs with ARM CPUs linked together by their ultra-fast NVLink 4 bridge. Combined with the data-processing units (DPUs) they purchased with Mellanox, Nvidia is putting together a data center beast that will be entirely unique when it is released in 2023.\nFor the near-term, this is targeted at huge AI loads on supercomputers. But if the last 30 years have taught us anything about the data center, it's that today's supercomputer-scale tasks eventually become the common tasks of tomorrow. All these chips, the CPU-GPU-DPU combo, remain separate, as the requirements are too high to do what Apple did with M1. But Nvidia's eventual goal is to get them on one chip. Right now, no one is skating to where the puck is headed in the data center like Nvidia, and it relies on ARM CPU cores at the base of the stack.\nTo be clear, Nvidia can pull all this off as an ARM licensee. What they want is control over the roadmap to focus it more on ARM's Neoverse data center cores, where their interests lay.\nThis is why they are willing to make this bold $40 billion offer, though most of that is stock valued at $485 per share, well below today's price. Anyway, I have believed from the beginning that this deal will not go off. There is a lot of focus on the UK aspect of this with the inevitable news that UK regulators were going to frisk the deal. I'm not sure why anyone was surprised by that. This is the crown-jewel of UK tech.\nBut the issues are much bigger in the US and China. In the US, every ARM licensee has to be terrified by this. The bottom line is that ARM has never been part of a company that competes with its customers. It was independent when SoftBank bought it. If Nvidia bought it, they would have control over the roadmap, may take focus away from smartphone chips, and as a practical matter will have first crack at everything new. So far to my knowledge, only Qualcomm has filed a brief in opposition, but I expect more.\nBut I also don't think the Chinese government is going to allow such important IP fall into the hands of a US company given the political tensions, and what appears to be a bifurcation of technology that I don't think will reverse in the Biden administration. Chinese regulators have leverage through the ARM China joint venture. This is a long, complicated story, and since this is already a long, complicated article, I will skip it. I will happily provide details in the comments for the curious.\nJust the other day, Chinese company, Longsoon announced a new instruction set architecture. There are a lot of ways this can go, because politics are involved now. But regardless, Citi thinks there's a 10% chance the deal goes through. I think that's closer to zero. Again, Nvidia can pull off their plans as an ARM licensee, but it puts up obstacles. They will also lose the $1.25 billion breakup penalty.\nThe Supply Chain Bites Back\nApple website screenshot\nApple usually does spring product announcements in March, not April. The main products announced will not be available until the second half of May. Make what you like of that, but most of the rumors surrounding this have focused on display panel supply.\nAlso, the 4/20 date of the announcements gives a little more clarity as to why Tim Cook was not at Congressional hearings the next day. From Apple's letter to Senators Amy Klobuchar and Mike Lee from 4/11:\n\n We simply sought alternative dates in light of upcoming matters that have been scheduled for some time and that touch on similar issues.\"\n\nOther Announcements\nQuickly:\n\nThe iPad Pro is the first one really worthy of the \"Pro\" name. They are already widely used in film production, but this new one will be very popular on film sets, especially the larger one. This is a marginal market for Apple, but an important one to them.\nPaid subscriptions for podcasts just add a new line to services revenue. These need not be large, but they add up. I don't foresee this as any kind of business on the scale of the App Store, which is what it would need to be to move the needle.\nI'll be back regarding AirTags when we have more details on how they work in edge cases. Ultimately, if they sell well, it will increase the size of the Find My network, which has large implications across all Apple products.\n\nUpshot for Apple and the Rest\nThat Apple is making the best computers in their low range, and everyone else's midrange, is now beyond question. This is one of those things like iPod, iPhone, iPod, Watch and AirPods where Apple puts out something that everyone else immediately sets out to copy. They are hindered right now by a lack of a great Windows/Chromebook platform like M1, but I do not believe that will last.\nBut returning to Apple, 2020 was the biggest calendar year ever for Mac and iPad because of this:\n\nAs it relates to Apple:\n\nIn the first place, with the vaccination campaign going well, I don't think this sort of demand can continue. Also, as you see, Apple's business tends to be very seasonal, and it is about to drop off on that. Mac gets a little boost in Apple's Q4, the back-to-school quarter. Now they have low end ARM laptops and desktops that are the most popular with those customers.\nBut Apple is no longer the Mac company of course\n\nMac is only about 10% of their top line, so even big moves on that fat green line don't have a big effect on the consolidated Apple. Mac and iPad did save their fiscal 2020, however, as it was a bad year for iPhone, and the unusually high demand filled that hole.\nThe bigger effect will be on the brewing battle of ARM versus x86 in PCs and the data center. Apple just gave everyone on the ARM side the roadmap to winning:\n\nFocus on performance-per-Watt.\nCustomize the SoC with the things you want for your devices and customers.\nTie it all together with software.\n\nIt also highlights a key portion of my long-term Apple bull story. Apple now has a tech stack so high and complete, there is no one else to even compare them with in the products world. The base of that stack is the chip design unit. The new iMac highlights how their work translates into a final product when it is designed around the capabilities of the chip and vice versa. At this point, Apple is more a platform for rolling off new device types.

The S&P 500 gained 1.1% to 4,170.42, also reaching a record high. The Nasdaq Composite advanced 1.3% to 14,038.76.\nTechnology shares rebounded as bond yields fell. The so-called FAANG stocks – Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix and Alphabet – all climbed more than 1%. The 10-year Treasury yield dropped 8 basis points below 1.56%. Earlier in the year, higher rates caused investors to dump growth-oriented stocks.\nRetail sales surged 9.8% in March as additional stimulus sent consumer spending soaring, the Commerce Department reported Thursday. That number topped the Dow Jones estimate of a 6.1% gain.\nA separate report on Thursday showed that first-time filings for unemployment insurance dropped to the lowest level since March 2020. The Labor Department reported 576,000 new jobless claims for the week ended April 10. Economists polled by Dow Jones expected a total of 710,000.\n“Although 34,000 by itself is just another number, this is a monumental feat when you think back to where we were last year at this time,” said Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at LPL Financial. “The speed and resiliency of this economic recovery is unlike anything we’ve ever seen and it helps to justify stocks at all-time highs.”\nShares of UnitedHealth, a Dow member, gained 3.8% after results topped the Street’s forecasts and the health insurer raised guidance for 2021.\nPepsi shares added 0.1% after the consumer snack and drink maker said sales last quarter rose nearly 7%, topping estimates.\nThe market has been grinding higher to reach new records in recent sessions amid the economic reopening and trillions of dollars in stimulus. The S&P 500 has gained 11% in 2021 with energy and financials up the most year to date.\n“I am incredibly bullish on the markets, and you are right to be worried about our deficits,” Larry Fink, BlackRock CEO, said in an interview on “Squawk Box.”“If we don’t have economic growth that is sustainable over the next 10 years — our deficits are going to matter and they are going to elevate interest rates ... I believe because of monetary stimulus, fiscal stimulus, cash on the sidelines, earnings, markets are okay. Markets are going to continue to be stronger.”\nShares of Citigroup erased earlier gains and fell 0.5% The bank posted results that beat analysts’ estimates for first-quarter profit with strong investment banking revenue and a bigger-than-expected release of loan-loss reserves.\nBank of America shares rose as earnings last quarter blew past the Street on booming trading and investment banking results as well the release of loan-loss reserves. The shares dipped 2.9%, however.\nNewly public crypto exchange Coinbase rolled over and closed the day down 1.7% in volatile trading. The stock got a boost earlier after it was revealed Ark Invest’s Cathie Wood loaded up on the first day of trading.\nOn Tuesday, the Food and Drug Administration called for a pause in administering J&J’s Covid-19 vaccine after six people in the U.S. developed a rare disorder involving blood clots. The announcement triggered a sell-off in reopening plays earlier in the week, but is not expected to have a material impact on the pace of the U.S. vaccine rollout.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":324,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344863561,"gmtCreate":1618397820953,"gmtModify":1704710169780,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/344863561","repostId":"344894893","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":344894893,"gmtCreate":1618393859212,"gmtModify":1704710120650,"author":{"id":"3574808590725358","authorId":"3574808590725358","authorIdStr":"3574808590725358","name":"donnie991","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2aa0229645cabfe6cf50a23e765c1a12","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574808590725358"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MARA\">$Marathon Digital Holdings Inc(MARA)$</a>bitcoin fly, now mara can ride","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MARA\">$Marathon Digital Holdings Inc(MARA)$</a>bitcoin fly, now mara can ride","text":"$Marathon Digital Holdings Inc(MARA)$bitcoin fly, now mara can ride","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/344894893","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":0,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":131,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":353151527,"gmtCreate":1616472969469,"gmtModify":1704794539717,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ha ha.

Its brand is also arguably losing its luster against hotter electric vehicle (EV) brands like<b> Tesla</b>.</p>\n<p>Yet Ford's stock price nearly tripled over the past 12 months even as the pandemic disrupted its plants, as investors bet on its long-term recovery.

Nokia</h2>\n<p><b>Nokia</b> (NYSE:NOK) attracted a lot of attention from Robinhood investors during the Reddit-fueled short squeeze. Its stock briefly hit a two-year high in late January, but those gains quickly evaporated.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc79e7b7ae756874190cbad8b2f069a0\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<p>Nokia's stock has risen nearly 60% over the past 12 months, likely because investors considered it a value play on the 5G market.

That's why analysts expect Ericsson's revenue and earnings to rise 15% and 16%, respectively, this year. They expect Nokia's revenue to rise just 3% this year, and for its earnings to tumble 21%.</p>\n<h2>3.

It expects its revenue to rise more than 30% in 2021.</p>\n<p>That growth is impressive, but Palantir is unprofitable and its stock trades at 30 times this year's sales -- which could make it an easy target for profit-takers as higher bond yields spark a rotation from growth stocks to value stocks.</p>\n<p>That being said, Palantir's margins are expanding, it's growing its average revenue per customer, and it continues to expand its enterprise-facing business to reduce its dependence on government contracts.</p>\n<p>I bought most of my shares of Palantir below $10, sold a third of my stake in late January, and plan to hold the rest of my shares for the long term.

Many of its users are millennials, and a quarter of them are first-time investors.\nWall Street didn't initially pay much attention to Robinhood, since most of the platform's users only placed small trades. But more investors joined the platform throughout the pandemic the past year, and some of their choices -- amplified by social media platforms like Reddit -- shook the markets.\nThat shift culminated in the Reddit-fueled short squeeze earlier this year, which boosted GameStop and other battered stocks to historic highs.

After all, who doesn't love an underdog with ambitions of taking the weed market by storm? Unfortunately, not every big dream manifests into reality, and that couldn't be truer for Sundial stock.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>For <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> thing, the stock price has doubled over the past year, but that's actually behind the curve -- the average weed stock saw a magnificent 171% gain during the same period. However, that's not the main problem. Let's take a look at why white-hot Sundial shares could seriously burn investors who buy now.&nbsp;</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d514111118071afd2a07f8ebf2fc6b1\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. Its valuation&nbsp;</h2>\n<p>In 2020, Sundial revenue fell by 4% year over year to 60.9 million Canadian dollars. Gains in vape cartridge sales were tempered by declining dried flower and oil revenue, as well as falling cannabis prices across all of its products. Overall revenue was down even though the company produced 36% more dried cannabis (a total of 23,500 kilograms) than in 2019.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>What's astonishing is that Sundial stock is trading for 43.6 times sales. Its fellow Canadian cannabis growers such as <b>Aphria</b> (NASDAQ:APHA) are selling for much less than that (about 12 times sales). Aphria is also growing its revenue by about 34% per year and managed to break even in its latest quarter. Meanwhile, Sundial's losses are mounting. Speaking of which ...&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>2. Its mounting losses</h2>\n<p>Last year, the company posted a gross loss of CA$115.8 million. It saw a record amount of obsolete inventory and asset impairment as the Canadian marijuana market became hypercompetitive. The ever-expanding number of legal producers, a plethora of mom-and-dad pot growers, and the resilient black market have all combined in anything but a favorable way for Sundial. Its operating loss increased to CA$206.3 million from CA$142.7 million in 2019.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Buying shares of a company that is losing several dollars for every dollar it earns in revenue is probably not a good idea. Sundial inexplicably is still seeing investor demand for its shares in the market, but that may change very soon.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>3. Its capital management</h2>\n<p>Amazingly, Sundial has no debt whatsoever and about CA$719 million in cash. That money didn't come from operations, however, but from the issuance of stock. Between July 2020 and today, Sundial's number of shares outstanding shot up from less than 200 million to a stunning 1.665 billion.</p>\n<p>Since Sundial is operating at a nine-figure net loss, I would expect its newly infused capital to dissipate significantly over time.

After all, who doesn't love an underdog with ambitions of taking the weed market by storm? Unfortunately, not every big dream manifests into reality, and that couldn't be truer for Sundial stock. \nFor one thing, the stock price has doubled over the past year, but that's actually behind the curve -- the average weed stock saw a magnificent 171% gain during the same period. However, that's not the main problem. Let's take a look at why white-hot Sundial shares could seriously burn investors who buy now. \nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Its valuation \nIn 2020, Sundial revenue fell by 4% year over year to 60.9 million Canadian dollars. Gains in vape cartridge sales were tempered by declining dried flower and oil revenue, as well as falling cannabis prices across all of its products. Overall revenue was down even though the company produced 36% more dried cannabis (a total of 23,500 kilograms) than in 2019. \nWhat's astonishing is that Sundial stock is trading for 43.6 times sales. Its fellow Canadian cannabis growers such as Aphria (NASDAQ:APHA) are selling for much less than that (about 12 times sales). Aphria is also growing its revenue by about 34% per year and managed to break even in its latest quarter. Meanwhile, Sundial's losses are mounting. Speaking of which ... \n2. Its mounting losses\nLast year, the company posted a gross loss of CA$115.8 million. It saw a record amount of obsolete inventory and asset impairment as the Canadian marijuana market became hypercompetitive. The ever-expanding number of legal producers, a plethora of mom-and-dad pot growers, and the resilient black market have all combined in anything but a favorable way for Sundial. Its operating loss increased to CA$206.3 million from CA$142.7 million in 2019. \nBuying shares of a company that is losing several dollars for every dollar it earns in revenue is probably not a good idea. Sundial inexplicably is still seeing investor demand for its shares in the market, but that may change very soon. \n3. Its capital management\nAmazingly, Sundial has no debt whatsoever and about CA$719 million in cash. That money didn't come from operations, however, but from the issuance of stock. Between July 2020 and today, Sundial's number of shares outstanding shot up from less than 200 million to a stunning 1.665 billion.\nSince Sundial is operating at a nine-figure net loss, I would expect its newly infused capital to dissipate significantly over time. What's worse, the pot grower has a less than 4% market share in Canada with no international presence whatsoever. It will take a great deal of time and effort for Sundial to both trim its losses and expand abroad. I would not be surprised if it goes back to the capital markets to ask investors for more. \nWhat's the verdict? \nGiven the pot grower's absurd valuation despite abysmal results, accelerating operating loss, and exuberant share dilution, Sundial Growers is definitely not a company that looks out for shareholders' best interest. Investors looking for marijuana stocks should understand that much better alternatives exist than what Sundial has to offer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":52,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":323036104,"gmtCreate":1615287419908,"gmtModify":1704780622259,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NNDM\">$Nano Dimension(NNDM)$</a>any good news?&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NNDM\">$Nano Dimension(NNDM)$</a>any good news?&nbsp;","text":"$Nano Dimension(NNDM)$any good news?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/323036104","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":30,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":316619298,"gmtCreate":1611930743814,"gmtModify":1704866092818,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNDL\">$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$</a>go go !&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNDL\">$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$</a>go go !&nbsp;","text":"$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$go go !","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/316619298","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":129,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":377048202,"gmtCreate":1619486313106,"gmtModify":1704724711198,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"giving out defective vaccine!

The S&P 500 gained 1.1% to 4,170.42, also reaching a record high. The Nasdaq Composite advanced 1.3% to 14,038.76.\nTechnology shares rebounded as bond yields fell. The so-called FAANG stocks – Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix and Alphabet – all climbed more than 1%. The 10-year Treasury yield dropped 8 basis points below 1.56%. Earlier in the year, higher rates caused investors to dump growth-oriented stocks.\nRetail sales surged 9.8% in March as additional stimulus sent consumer spending soaring, the Commerce Department reported Thursday. That number topped the Dow Jones estimate of a 6.1% gain.\nA separate report on Thursday showed that first-time filings for unemployment insurance dropped to the lowest level since March 2020. The Labor Department reported 576,000 new jobless claims for the week ended April 10. Economists polled by Dow Jones expected a total of 710,000.\n“Although 34,000 by itself is just another number, this is a monumental feat when you think back to where we were last year at this time,” said Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at LPL Financial. “The speed and resiliency of this economic recovery is unlike anything we’ve ever seen and it helps to justify stocks at all-time highs.”\nShares of UnitedHealth, a Dow member, gained 3.8% after results topped the Street’s forecasts and the health insurer raised guidance for 2021.\nPepsi shares added 0.1% after the consumer snack and drink maker said sales last quarter rose nearly 7%, topping estimates.\nThe market has been grinding higher to reach new records in recent sessions amid the economic reopening and trillions of dollars in stimulus. The S&P 500 has gained 11% in 2021 with energy and financials up the most year to date.\n“I am incredibly bullish on the markets, and you are right to be worried about our deficits,” Larry Fink, BlackRock CEO, said in an interview on “Squawk Box.”“If we don’t have economic growth that is sustainable over the next 10 years — our deficits are going to matter and they are going to elevate interest rates ... I believe because of monetary stimulus, fiscal stimulus, cash on the sidelines, earnings, markets are okay. Markets are going to continue to be stronger.”\nShares of Citigroup erased earlier gains and fell 0.5% The bank posted results that beat analysts’ estimates for first-quarter profit with strong investment banking revenue and a bigger-than-expected release of loan-loss reserves.\nBank of America shares rose as earnings last quarter blew past the Street on booming trading and investment banking results as well the release of loan-loss reserves. The shares dipped 2.9%, however.\nNewly public crypto exchange Coinbase rolled over and closed the day down 1.7% in volatile trading. The stock got a boost earlier after it was revealed Ark Invest’s Cathie Wood loaded up on the first day of trading.\nOn Tuesday, the Food and Drug Administration called for a pause in administering J&J’s Covid-19 vaccine after six people in the U.S. developed a rare disorder involving blood clots. The announcement triggered a sell-off in reopening plays earlier in the week, but is not expected to have a material impact on the pace of the U.S. vaccine rollout.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":324,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":102140222,"gmtCreate":1620188153266,"gmtModify":1704339943237,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go doge!&nbsp;","listText":"Go doge!&nbsp;","text":"Go doge!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/102140222","repostId":"1115203133","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1115203133","pubTimestamp":1620178775,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1115203133?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-05 09:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why is dogecoin’s price spiking?

In a way, doge then is more like a USD but in a digital form,” he wrote.Bubbles & maniasMoya wrote that the dogecoin bubble should have “popped by now, but institutional interest is trying to take advantage of this momentum and that could support another push higher.”Many skeptics warn that dogecoin could leave a lot of newbie investors hemorrhaging losses if they wade into the asset imprudently.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":367,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371945662,"gmtCreate":1618906507356,"gmtModify":1704716660306,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNDL\">$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$</a>lets go.

Nokia</h2>\n<p><b>Nokia</b> (NYSE:NOK) attracted a lot of attention from Robinhood investors during the Reddit-fueled short squeeze. Its stock briefly hit a two-year high in late January, but those gains quickly evaporated.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc79e7b7ae756874190cbad8b2f069a0\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<p>Nokia's stock has risen nearly 60% over the past 12 months, likely because investors considered it a value play on the 5G market.

It focused too much on cutting costs after the acquisition, which caused it to fall behind Ericsson and <b>Huawei </b>in 5G investments. Nokia suspended its dividend in 2019 to free up more cash for more 5G investments, but it lost major contracts in China amid the trade war and fell behind Ericsson in other markets. Nokia's former CEO, Rajeev Suri, also resigned last year without fixing the company's biggest problems.</p>\n<p>Ericsson didn't switch leaders during its crucial shift to 5G. It also retained its contracts in China, grew faster than Nokia, and continued to pay its dividend.

They expect Nokia's revenue to rise just 3% this year, and for its earnings to tumble 21%.</p>\n<h2>3.

It expects its revenue to rise more than 30% in 2021.</p>\n<p>That growth is impressive, but Palantir is unprofitable and its stock trades at 30 times this year's sales -- which could make it an easy target for profit-takers as higher bond yields spark a rotation from growth stocks to value stocks.</p>\n<p>That being said, Palantir's margins are expanding, it's growing its average revenue per customer, and it continues to expand its enterprise-facing business to reduce its dependence on government contracts.</p>\n<p>I bought most of my shares of Palantir below $10, sold a third of my stake in late January, and plan to hold the rest of my shares for the long term.

What started out as a joke has enabled some to laugh all the way to the bank.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, skeptics about Dogecoin would be just as quick to note that it has given up more than 60% of its earlier gains. Anyone who jumped on the Dogecoin late is probably sitting on some hefty losses.</p>\n<p>Regardless of what your take is on Dogecoin, what really matters is where you should put your money now. One place to get some investment ideas is Robinhood's 100 most popular stocks list. Here are two popular Robinhood stocks that could crush Dogecoin going forward.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/21859b0af15cb96a0c3a3aa3d6358251\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"420\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>NVIDIA</h2>\n<p>While Dogecoin has nosedived in recent months, <b>NVIDIA</b> (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock has taken off. One reason why is NVIDIA's upcoming four-for-<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> stock split. While stock splits don't impact a company's valuation directly, they can attract greater numbers of small investors.</p>\n<p>However, there are plenty of even better reasons to like NVIDIA that have nothing to do with its stock split. The most obvious one is the company's gaming business.</p>\n<p>Gaming remains NVIDIA's biggest moneymaker, generating $2.8 billion of the company's total revenue of nearly $5.7 billion in the first quarter of 2021. And business is booming. NVIDIA's gaming revenue more than doubled year over year.</p>\n<p>It isn't just that gaming is increasing in popularity (although that is the case). NVIDIA benefits from regular hardware upgrade cycles. New games require even more processing power, which drives demand for the more powerful graphics processing units (GPUs).</p>\n<p>I especially like that NVIDIA is leveraging its gaming expertise to target new markets. For example, the company recently unveiled Omniverse Enterprise, a platform where design teams can build 3D virtual simulations and collaborate in real-time. In effect, NVIDIA is turning work into play (or vice versa, depending on how you look at it).</p>\n<p>NVIDIA CFO Colette Kress said in the company's Q1 conference call, \"As the world becomes more digital, virtual and collaborative, we see a significant revenue opportunity for Omniverse.\" I think that Kress's optimism is well-founded.</p>\n<p>Don't overlook NVIDIA's potential in the data center market, though. The company posted data center revenue of more than $2 billion in Q1, up 79% year over year. NVIDIA should enjoy sustained growth as more applications include artificial intelligence (AI).</p>\n<p>Assuming NVIDIA's pending acquisition of Arm passes regulatory hurdles, the company should further cement its leadership position in AI. In particular, the Arm deal would boost NVIDIA's presence in the fast-growing Internet of Things market with chips for mobile devices.</p>\n<p>Sure, an overall cryptocurrency crash could cause NVIDIA's shares to fall due to the popularity of the company's GPUs with crypto miners. It's happened before. However, the company has taken steps to segment its gaming business from crypto. I think that any pullback would only be temporary. NVIDIA has too many other strong growth drivers.</p>\n<h2>Moderna</h2>\n<p>Most companies can't honestly say that they've helped change the world.&nbsp;<b>Moderna</b> (NASDAQ:MRNA) can.</p>\n<p>The biotech's COVID-19 vaccine was second only to the vaccine developed by <b>Pfizer</b>&nbsp;and <b>BioNTech</b> to win U.S. Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). Moderna reported $1.9 billion in sales for the vaccine in Q1, but that's just the tip of the iceberg.</p>\n<p>Based on supply agreements in place as of early May, Moderna projected that its COVID-19 vaccine would rake in sales this year of $19.2 billion. However, the company has secured additional deals since then.</p>\n<p>In just the past two weeks, Moderna has landed two new huge supply agreements. The U.S. government is buying 200 million additional doses of Moderna's COVID19 vaccine. The European Commission agreed to purchase another 150 million doses.</p>\n<p>But does Moderna's market cap of close to $90 billion already price all of this growth in? To some extent, yes. However, shares still are trading at only around 10.5 times expected earnings. That's an attractive valuation, especially for a biotech stock.</p>\n<p>The big question for Moderna is how strong the recurring revenue from its COVID-19 vaccine will be. While the sales levels of 2021 and 2022 might not be sustainable over the long run, annual vaccinations could be likely (especially with emerging coronavirus variants). I expect Moderna will be able to count on significant COVID-19 vaccine sales for years to come.</p>\n<p>Then there's the pipeline. Moderna plans to advance its cytomegalovirus (CMV) vaccine into late-stage testing this year. It could easily be a megablockbuster if approved. The company has a dozen other programs in clinical testing.</p>\n<p>Moderna hopes to use its newfound riches to dramatically boost its pipeline in the near future.

What started out as a joke has enabled some to laugh all the way to the bank.\nOn the other hand, skeptics about Dogecoin would be just as quick to note that it has given up more than 60% of its earlier gains. Anyone who jumped on the Dogecoin late is probably sitting on some hefty losses.\nRegardless of what your take is on Dogecoin, what really matters is where you should put your money now. One place to get some investment ideas is Robinhood's 100 most popular stocks list. Here are two popular Robinhood stocks that could crush Dogecoin going forward.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNVIDIA\nWhile Dogecoin has nosedived in recent months, NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock has taken off. One reason why is NVIDIA's upcoming four-for-one stock split. While stock splits don't impact a company's valuation directly, they can attract greater numbers of small investors.\nHowever, there are plenty of even better reasons to like NVIDIA that have nothing to do with its stock split. The most obvious one is the company's gaming business.\nGaming remains NVIDIA's biggest moneymaker, generating $2.8 billion of the company's total revenue of nearly $5.7 billion in the first quarter of 2021. And business is booming. NVIDIA's gaming revenue more than doubled year over year.\nIt isn't just that gaming is increasing in popularity (although that is the case). NVIDIA benefits from regular hardware upgrade cycles. New games require even more processing power, which drives demand for the more powerful graphics processing units (GPUs).\nI especially like that NVIDIA is leveraging its gaming expertise to target new markets. For example, the company recently unveiled Omniverse Enterprise, a platform where design teams can build 3D virtual simulations and collaborate in real-time. In effect, NVIDIA is turning work into play (or vice versa, depending on how you look at it).\nNVIDIA CFO Colette Kress said in the company's Q1 conference call, \"As the world becomes more digital, virtual and collaborative, we see a significant revenue opportunity for Omniverse.\" I think that Kress's optimism is well-founded.\nDon't overlook NVIDIA's potential in the data center market, though. The company posted data center revenue of more than $2 billion in Q1, up 79% year over year. NVIDIA should enjoy sustained growth as more applications include artificial intelligence (AI).\nAssuming NVIDIA's pending acquisition of Arm passes regulatory hurdles, the company should further cement its leadership position in AI. In particular, the Arm deal would boost NVIDIA's presence in the fast-growing Internet of Things market with chips for mobile devices.\nSure, an overall cryptocurrency crash could cause NVIDIA's shares to fall due to the popularity of the company's GPUs with crypto miners. It's happened before. However, the company has taken steps to segment its gaming business from crypto. I think that any pullback would only be temporary. NVIDIA has too many other strong growth drivers.\nModerna\nMost companies can't honestly say that they've helped change the world. Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) can.\nThe biotech's COVID-19 vaccine was second only to the vaccine developed by Pfizer and BioNTech to win U.S. Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). Moderna reported $1.9 billion in sales for the vaccine in Q1, but that's just the tip of the iceberg.\nBased on supply agreements in place as of early May, Moderna projected that its COVID-19 vaccine would rake in sales this year of $19.2 billion. However, the company has secured additional deals since then.\nIn just the past two weeks, Moderna has landed two new huge supply agreements. The U.S. government is buying 200 million additional doses of Moderna's COVID19 vaccine. The European Commission agreed to purchase another 150 million doses.\nBut does Moderna's market cap of close to $90 billion already price all of this growth in? To some extent, yes. However, shares still are trading at only around 10.5 times expected earnings. That's an attractive valuation, especially for a biotech stock.\nThe big question for Moderna is how strong the recurring revenue from its COVID-19 vaccine will be. While the sales levels of 2021 and 2022 might not be sustainable over the long run, annual vaccinations could be likely (especially with emerging coronavirus variants). I expect Moderna will be able to count on significant COVID-19 vaccine sales for years to come.\nThen there's the pipeline. Moderna plans to advance its cytomegalovirus (CMV) vaccine into late-stage testing this year. It could easily be a megablockbuster if approved. The company has a dozen other programs in clinical testing.\nModerna hopes to use its newfound riches to dramatically boost its pipeline in the near future. CEO Stephane Bancel has stated that he'd like to have up to 50 clinical programs.\nAll of Moderna's current and planned pipeline programs are based on its messenger RNA (mRNA) technology. The company has maintained for a long time that if its mRNA approach worked for one disease, it would work for many diseases. If Moderna is right, the biotech stock should be a massive winner over the long run -- and could very well crush Dogecoin.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":398,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":109169808,"gmtCreate":1619673818004,"gmtModify":1704727802265,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TIGR\">$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$</a>Today dumping soon beware","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TIGR\">$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$</a>Today dumping soon beware","text":"$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$Today dumping soon beware","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/109169808","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":496,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":359252316,"gmtCreate":1616406076235,"gmtModify":1704793606438,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Even EFT can rise! <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNDL\">$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$</a>definitely can!&nbsp;","listText":"Even EFT can rise! <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNDL\">$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$</a>definitely can!&nbsp;","text":"Even EFT can rise! $Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$definitely can!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/359252316","repostId":"2121141135","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2121141135","pubTimestamp":1616405284,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2121141135?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-22 17:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Before You Buy Sundial Growers, Stop and Consider These 3 Things","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2121141135","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Knowing how to avoid bad pot stocks is just as important as being able to pick out the good ones.","content":"<p>Canadian marijuana company&nbsp;<b>Sundial Growers</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:SNDL) has been incredibly popular among the WallStreetBets subreddit.

Its valuation&nbsp;</h2>\n<p>In 2020, Sundial revenue fell by 4% year over year to 60.9 million Canadian dollars. Gains in vape cartridge sales were tempered by declining dried flower and oil revenue, as well as falling cannabis prices across all of its products. Overall revenue was down even though the company produced 36% more dried cannabis (a total of 23,500 kilograms) than in 2019.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>What's astonishing is that Sundial stock is trading for 43.6 times sales. Its fellow Canadian cannabis growers such as <b>Aphria</b> (NASDAQ:APHA) are selling for much less than that (about 12 times sales). Aphria is also growing its revenue by about 34% per year and managed to break even in its latest quarter. Meanwhile, Sundial's losses are mounting. Speaking of which ...&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>2. Its mounting losses</h2>\n<p>Last year, the company posted a gross loss of CA$115.8 million. It saw a record amount of obsolete inventory and asset impairment as the Canadian marijuana market became hypercompetitive. The ever-expanding number of legal producers, a plethora of mom-and-dad pot growers, and the resilient black market have all combined in anything but a favorable way for Sundial. Its operating loss increased to CA$206.3 million from CA$142.7 million in 2019.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>Buying shares of a company that is losing several dollars for every dollar it earns in revenue is probably not a good idea. Sundial inexplicably is still seeing investor demand for its shares in the market, but that may change very soon.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>3. Its capital management</h2>\n<p>Amazingly, Sundial has no debt whatsoever and about CA$719 million in cash. That money didn't come from operations, however, but from the issuance of stock. Between July 2020 and today, Sundial's number of shares outstanding shot up from less than 200 million to a stunning 1.665 billion.</p>\n<p>Since Sundial is operating at a nine-figure net loss, I would expect its newly infused capital to dissipate significantly over time. What's worse, the pot grower has a less than 4% market share in Canada with no international presence whatsoever. It will take a great deal of time and effort for Sundial to both trim its losses and expand abroad. I would not be surprised if it goes back to the capital markets to ask investors for more.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>What's the verdict?&nbsp;</h2>\n<p>Given the pot grower's absurd valuation despite abysmal results, accelerating operating loss, and exuberant share dilution, Sundial Growers is definitely not a company that looks out for shareholders' best interest. Investors looking for marijuana stocks should understand that much better alternatives exist than what Sundial has to offer.&nbsp;</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>Before You Buy Sundial Growers, Stop and Consider These 3 Things</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\">\nBefore You Buy Sundial Growers, Stop and Consider These 3 Things\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-03-22 17:28 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/03/21/before-you-buy-sundial-growers-stop-and-consider-t/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Canadian marijuana company Sundial Growers (NASDAQ:SNDL) has been incredibly popular among the WallStreetBets subreddit.

Investors looking for marijuana stocks should understand that much better alternatives exist than what Sundial has to offer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":52,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":316619298,"gmtCreate":1611930743814,"gmtModify":1704866092818,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNDL\">$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$</a>go go !&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNDL\">$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$</a>go go !&nbsp;","text":"$Sundial Growers Inc.(SNDL)$go go !","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/316619298","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":129,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":376837272,"gmtCreate":1619102006996,"gmtModify":1704719709711,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"What?","listText":"What?","text":"What?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/376837272","repostId":"1103717271","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1103717271","pubTimestamp":1619099691,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1103717271?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-22 21:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple: A New Era For The PC","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1103717271","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nThe 2021 iMac is the fourth M1 Mac, but the first to be built around the chip.

The bottom photo is the same for the 2021 23.5\" iMac which is replacing it. It's a bit of an unfair comparison, and I'll explain why, but what you see is the benefits to Apple of designing their own ARM systems-on-a-chip (SoCs), instead of using Intel's (INTC) CPUs.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Much smaller logic board. There is an array of chips that used to be on the logic board that are now integrated into to Apple's M1 SoC.</li>\n <li>Because ARM chips require less power and heat dissipation, the fan assembly also takes up much less space.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The result is that Apple can open up the design of the iMac. The first part is that they were able to put a bigger screen in there, 23.5\" versus the 21.5\" they have had at the bottom of the iMac line since 2009. That's about a 20% increase in screen area and pixels, something they were unable to do for 12 years with Intel hardware.</p>\n<p>Second, the iMac profile went from this:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/44635ae61932e01dee0abc5c42b6182b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"155\"><span>Apple video screenshot.

Steve Jobs' vision of a desktop computer that fades into the background when you're using it, and looks great when you're not gets much closer than last week.</p>\n<p><b>What Is M1?</b></p>\n<p>In 2008, less than a year after the first iPhone was in the wild, Apple bought a small company working on low-power chips, P.A. Semiconductor. As is their pattern outside of Beats, Apple was buying the IP and talent, not any product. From that came Apple's chip design unit, now widely considered the best in the world.</p>\n<p>The first chip that went into a product was the A4 in iPhone 4 in 2010, which replaced the Samsung ARM SoCs they had been using. Samsung was already a handset competitor, and being dependent on them for the iPhone SoC was unacceptable. At first it was fine that these were as good as Samsung's and Qualcomm's (QCOM), but they are now widely recognized as the best smartphone SoCs. It's also a reason they have been able to dominate the tablet market for so long.</p>\n<p>ARM is a UK company, owned by SoftBank (OTCPK:SFTBY), that does not make chips. They make an instruction set architecture that competes primarily with Intel's x86, used exclusively in PCs and data center, and open source RISC-V, currently mostly used for IoT chips. An instruction set is the very basic way in which software talks to hardware.</p>\n<p>They also design core and reference designs for both CPUs (the main brain) and GPUs (graphics). All this IP gets licensed by the likes of Apple, Qualcomm, Samsung, Intel, AMD (AMD) and Nvidia (NVDA), just to name a few. Apple only licenses the instruction set and uses their own cores built around it. ARM is the subject a proposed $40 billion acquisition by Nvidia that I have&nbsp;believed since the beginning&nbsp;is unlikely to pass regulatory muster. We'll talk a bit more about that when we get to the data center.</p>\n<p>Macs have been built around Intel chips since 2005. What does Apple get by rolling their own ARM chips they can't get from Intel? The first things are what Intel's customers have been wanting for a while, and Intel has been unable to deliver: less power consumption, and more customization without impacting performance. Let's start with the last one first.</p>\n<p>When the first M1 Macs were released last year, even people who had high expectations like I did were surprised at how capable they were. As always, AnandTech does the best&nbsp;publicly available testing. A couple things to keep in mind as we look at this:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>M1 is a laptop-class chip for the low end of their Mac line. It is, in another way of thinking, the worst M-series SoC we will see.</li>\n <li>This review was from November 2020 when the first M1 Macs hit the streets, and both Intel and AMD have updated their lines since then.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Here, we look at single-core performance, as this is the vast majority of what customers who buy these Macs are doing with them:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a6add7810be706421754e215de958fc5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"738\"><span>AnandTech. Top score is integer; bottom score is floating point. Gray = ARM; blue = Intel; red/orange = AMD.</span></p>\n<p>Two of the top three places go to Apple chips, and one of those chips powers a cell phone. Intel's best is in fourth place. But it's actually worse than that, because AnandTech included Intel and AMD's top end desktop/gaming chips. Yes, in November, Apple had a cell phone chip that was faster than Intel's best Core i9 desktop/gaming chip in the most common tasks.</p>\n<p>So that's the first part: M1 performance is not just better than other laptop CPUs, but bests Intel and AMD desktop/gaming CPUs. That brings us to the second part of this, which is power consumption and its child, heat dissipation. Everything you own can run faster at a higher power cost, but the silicon would melt without elaborate and expensive cooling systems. Many projects at Apple and every other hardware company have been killed over heat dissipation issues. It is one of the central challenges of hardware design. In laptop design, the chip's power consumption is a big determiner of battery life, so it's doubly important there.</p>\n<p>Apple does not release this sort of data, but TDP is a measurement of CPU power consumption under full load. AnandTech estimates it at 20-24 Watts in the M1. The closest Intel and AMD could get to M1 in performance back in November were desktop/gaming chips that hit 125 Watts and 105 Watts TDP respectively. Their best laptop chips, which underperform the M1 by a lot, were 28 Watts for Intel, and 45 Watts for AMD.</p>\n<p>A good comparison is the 2020 Mac mini versus its Intel predecessor, the 2018 Mac mini. It is the only M1 desktop Mac in the wild right now, without the power constraints of a laptop. This is total power consumption of the whole box.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1f40c3042fe1bcadc2fc2bb599cf3d21\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"103\"></p>\n<p>The M1 allowed Apple to reduce power consumption of the whole computer by about two-thirds both at idle and at full bore.</p>\n<p>Compared to M1, the x86 chips from Intel and AMD are power-hungry heat monsters that don't even perform as well. This is the Client Group at Intel, 51% of revenue in 2020, and 64% of operating income. x86 is doomed, and if Intel doesn't shift soon, they will be too. They have time, but it is dwindling.</p>\n<p>There is a bit of irony here, because performance-per-Watt is exactly how Steve Jobs framed the decision to move to Intel from PowerPC in 2005.</p>\n<p>But the comparison with x86 gets even more dramatic when we consider customization, the last thing Intel's customers have been asking for and not getting. In two years, they will finally have that with the opening of Intel's new foundries which will support custom packaging. The M1 is a great example of why this trend will continue to grow.</p>\n<p>The days of the general-purpose CPU doing everything have been ending slowly for a long time now. A CPU can do almost everything a programmer wants it to, but for many things this comes at too high a cost of power consumption and processor time. For over a decade, the GPU has picked up a growing amount of this work, but that is also inefficient in its own ways.</p>\n<p>Enter the ARM system-on-a-chip. When you buy a laptop chip from Intel or AMD, it has a CPU, GPU, cache, and that's it. The SoC concept is loading more things on to the chip die. This offloads less efficient tasks from the CPU and GPU, reduces the number of chips on the main logic board, and decreases power consumption and heat.</p>\n<p>So let's get back to those two images. The reason this iMac is so interesting is that though it is the fourth M1 Mac, it is the first one that is designed around the M1, not a reused design from the previous Intel-based generation. But the reason the comparison with the 2019 21.5\" iMac is a little unfair is because it now has become clear that this model has been targeted for a while by Apple as the first \"true\" M1 Mac. The 2019 model is already over 2 years old, and it was a meager upgrade to the 2017 model, except for the latest generation Intel chip. The iMac team spent that four years making the 2021 iMac.</p>\n<p>The big difference is that in 2019, Apple was still putting hard drives in the base model iMac. Hard drives create a lot of heat and power consumption compared to their replacement, solid-state drives, so that's why the comparison is a little unfair. So let's look at those photos again with some annotation.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01399dcd836eaaee0bdf3071f875a96e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"419\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e1f314bdbdf959c9428b9f8a8aa02b80\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"358\"></p>\n<p>So now in the top one from 2019, you can see where the hard drive went, and why that added to heat dissipation challenges. But let's focus on the very big main logic board on the right of the top image. Flipping it over where the action is:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7fc0e84df610834b61ecc9631783e69c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"371\"><span>Annotated Apple video screenshot</span></p>\n<p>The top left red box is the RAM which is now attached directly to the M1 die. Under it is the Intel Core i3 8100. The top right is Intel's Thunderbolt high-speed I/O, and below that is the AMD GPU. Thunderbolt and the GPU are now on the M1 die, and the RAM is attached directly to the die in a much smaller package. But they didn't stop there. Only about half the M1 die is CPU, GPU and cache. In addition to that, it now has:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Secure Enclave and cryptography accelerators.</li>\n <li>Apple's machine learning cores and accelerators, which had never gone in a Mac before, and are a big part of their future ambitions.</li>\n <li>Specialized units to offload frequent video, audio and photo tasks from the CPU and GPU.</li>\n <li>All I/O, including Intel's Thunderbolt, which Intel has never put on a SoC.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>These are Apple's priorities. Qualcomm, as another example, puts 5G connectivity on their smartphone and PC ARM SoCs, which makes them a unique offering. With ARM, everyone gets the chip they want, for their priorities and customers. Details are still a little thin, but Intel will be offering this type of customization in their new foundries with custom packaging for x86, ARM or RISC-V cores. In my opinion, this was the most important part of the foundry announcement. We should expect the foundries to be operational in a couple of years.</p>\n<p>Another area of customization is within the CPU cores themselves. In the ARM world, this is known as \"big.LITTLE,\" and that is not a typo. The idea is that most things people do on their PCs, tablets or smartphones, like typing this article, are not very demanding on resources. But there are times when we do need lots of performance. The LITTLE cores are optimized for power consumption, and do most of the work. But when there's heavy lifting to be done, the big cores pitch in on those tasks. The M1 has 4 of each.</p>\n<p>So let's add it up so far. Switching from Intel to ARM allows Apple to reduce power consumption by two-thirds on desktops, less on laptops, with even better performance than they were getting from Intel. They also get to put a host of other things on the die that offload inefficient tasks from the CPU and GPU. The net effect of all that is this:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c99acb1ab262241f7195d5ef491c64ac\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"361\"><span>Annotated Apple video screenshot.</span></p>\n<p>The entire computer now fits in the lower bezel. That sound you hear is my head exploding. That allows Apple to make iMac much thinner and lighter, and bump up to 23.5\" while barely making the footprint bigger. In the end, all this work on chip design is about that final product for Apple.</p>\n<p>This is a long section, but I am not done. There are two other very important things Apple gets by switching to ARM:</p>\n<ol>\n <li>They control their own roadmap, and are no longer dependent on Intel pushing their platform in a direction that Apple wants. Intel designs chips for a wide range of OEMs. Apple designs chips for Apple only.</li>\n <li>We don't have hard figures on this, but Apple almost certainly saves money on M1 when you add it all up.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>This is a home run from every single angle.</p>\n<p><b>What About Everyone Else?</b></p>\n<p>Apple was still Intel's fourth biggest customer at 8% as estimated by Bloomberg in 2019 before the M1 announcement. The top three are the PC/server makers Dell (DELL), Lenovo (OTCPK:LNVGY), and HP(NYSE:HPQ)who together accounted for 39% of Intel revenue in 2020, 41% in 2019. You can bet that some of the first M1 Mac orders went to engineers at those companies so they could reverse engineer what Apple did.</p>\n<p>Microsoft (MSFT) already has Windows 10 for ARM, but the PC makers are missing a huge piece of the puzzle - a great ARM hardware platform for Windows/Chromebook like what Apple did with the M1. Right now, a lot of Chromebooks and a few Windows PCs are built around Qualcomm's&nbsp;Snapdragon 8 compute platform. Despite the unique feature of 5G onboard, it is widely disliked for being slow, as are many competing platforms. Microsoft is reportedly also working on their own ARM chip for their Surface line.</p>\n<p>But Qualcomm just made a very big but under-appreciated acquisition that recently closed. Gerrard Williams led Apple's chip design unit in the period it went from nothing to the best in the world. In 2019, he left Apple to start his own company, Nuvia. Reportedly, Williams wanted to make a data center chip, Apple did not, and so he left to do it elsewhere. He had assembled a pretty impressive team of chip design all-stars. Apple is suing Williams, and vice-versa.</p>\n<p>What Nuvia was working on when Qualcomm snatched them up were ARM cores with an even better power-performance profile than Apple's, or so they claimed. These were intended for densely-packed data center chips, like Ampere Computing's&nbsp;80-core ARM data center chip.</p>\n<p>I believe Qualcomm wants to get there is as well, but first they need to solve their current problems:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Their smartphone/tablet SoCs now trail Apple badly.</li>\n <li>Their compute platform is underwhelming.</li>\n <li>Their automotive SoCs are undifferentiated ARM chips.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Integrating Nuvia's cores solves all these problems at once. But for our discussion, the compute platform is the big issue. Once they are able to integrate Nuvia's cores into that, likely in 2023 at the earliest, there will be a really powerful Windows/Chromebook platform that competes head on with x86 PCs.</p>\n<p>Gerrard Williams is now the SVP of Engineering at Qualcomm, and the Nuvia team is also there working under him.</p>\n<p><b>Data Center</b></p>\n<p>There are also big ARM moves in the data center happening right now. AnandTech recently&nbsp;tested Intel's new Ice Lake data center chips, and they included the Ampere 80-core ARM chip I mentioned a few paragraphs ago along with AMD chips. Here, we look at multicore performance, more important for big data center loads:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f600bd68ecdecdf305b19decfa9ab8a0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"492\"><span>AnandTech. Integer tests on left; floating-point on right. Gray = ARM; blue = Intel; red/orange = AMD.</span></p>\n<p>The top numbers you see are all 2-socket logic board designs (\"2S\" in chart) with two CPUs on them, including the 160-core Ampere board. With Intel's stumbles, AMD leads the pack now, Ampere a close second, and Intel trailing. Keep in mind a few things about this comparison:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Ampere is a small, private company whose R&amp;D budget is a fraction of Intel's and AMD's.</li>\n <li>This is Intel's newest chip, just released. Ampere will soon have a 256-core 2-socket board design that may wind up even topping AMD.</li>\n <li>Ampere's chip is about half the price of the Intel and AMD chips at the top there.</li>\n <li>It also uses less power, though the difference is not as dramatic as the M1 comparisons we looked at. Power consumption is a key component of data center Opex.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>This is what a tiny company with a tiny R&amp;D budget can pull off. What about someone bigger? Nvidia has just announced its upcoming GRACE processors that combine their top GPUs with ARM CPUs linked together by their ultra-fast NVLink 4 bridge. Combined with the data-processing units (DPUs) they purchased with Mellanox, Nvidia is putting together a data center beast that will be entirely unique when it is released in 2023.</p>\n<p>For the near-term, this is targeted at huge AI loads on supercomputers. But if the last 30 years have taught us anything about the data center, it's that today's supercomputer-scale tasks eventually become the common tasks of tomorrow. All these chips, the CPU-GPU-DPU combo, remain separate, as the requirements are too high to do what Apple did with M1. But Nvidia's eventual goal is to get them on one chip. Right now, no one is skating to where the puck is headed in the data center like Nvidia, and it relies on ARM CPU cores at the base of the stack.</p>\n<p>To be clear, Nvidia can pull all this off as an ARM licensee. What they want is control over the roadmap to focus it more on ARM's Neoverse data center cores, where their interests lay.</p>\n<p>This is why they are willing to make this bold $40 billion offer, though most of that is stock valued at $485 per share, well below today's price. Anyway, I have believed from the beginning that this deal will not go off. There is a lot of focus on the UK aspect of this with the inevitable news that UK regulators were&nbsp;going to frisk the deal. I'm not sure why anyone was surprised by that. This is the crown-jewel of UK tech.</p>\n<p>But the issues are much bigger in the US and China. In the US, every ARM licensee has to be terrified by this. The bottom line is that ARM has never been part of a company that competes with its customers. It was independent when SoftBank bought it. If Nvidia bought it, they would have control over the roadmap, may take focus away from smartphone chips, and as a practical matter will have first crack at everything new. So far to my knowledge, only Qualcomm has filed a brief in opposition, but I expect more.</p>\n<p>But I also don't think the Chinese government is going to allow such important IP fall into the hands of a US company given the political tensions, and what appears to be a bifurcation of technology that I don't think will reverse in the Biden administration. Chinese regulators have leverage through the ARM China joint venture. This is a long, complicated story, and since this is already a long, complicated article, I will skip it. I will happily provide details in the comments for the curious.</p>\n<p>Just the other day, Chinese company, Longsoon announced a&nbsp;new instruction set architecture. There are a lot of ways this can go, because politics are involved now. But regardless, Citi thinks there's a&nbsp;10% chance the deal goes through. I think that's closer to zero. Again, Nvidia can pull off their plans as an ARM licensee, but it puts up obstacles. They will also lose the $1.25 billion breakup penalty.</p>\n<p><b>The Supply Chain Bites Back</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/553aae2db27e064c33f7ae94963c20d3\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"449\"><span>Apple website screenshot</span></p>\n<p>Apple usually does spring product announcements in March, not April. The main products announced will not be available until the second half of May. Make what you like of that, but most of the rumors surrounding this have focused on display panel supply.</p>\n<p>Also, the 4/20 date of the announcements gives a little more clarity as to why Tim Cook was not at Congressional hearings the next day. From Apple's letter to Senators Amy Klobuchar and Mike Lee from 4/11:</p>\n<blockquote>\n We simply sought alternative dates in light of upcoming matters that have been scheduled for some time and that touch on similar issues.\"\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Other Announcements</b></p>\n<p>Quickly:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>The iPad Pro is the first one really worthy of the \"Pro\" name. They are already widely used in film production, but this new one will be very popular on film sets, especially the larger one. This is a marginal market for Apple, but an important one to them.</li>\n <li>Paid subscriptions for podcasts just add a new line to services revenue. These need not be large, but they add up. I don't foresee this as any kind of business on the scale of the App Store, which is what it would need to be to move the needle.</li>\n <li>I'll be back regarding AirTags when we have more details on how they work in edge cases. Ultimately, if they sell well, it will increase the size of the Find My network, which has large implications across all Apple products.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Upshot for Apple and the Rest</b></p>\n<p>That Apple is making the best computers in their low range, and everyone else's midrange, is now beyond question. This is one of those things like iPod, iPhone, iPod, Watch and AirPods where Apple puts out something that everyone else immediately sets out to copy. They are hindered right now by a lack of a great Windows/Chromebook platform like M1, but I do not believe that will last.</p>\n<p>But returning to Apple, 2020 was the biggest calendar year ever for Mac and iPad because of this:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ba94e60b7cdab1d6504c6b747eb15c0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"366\"></p>\n<p>As it relates to Apple:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/201e3153a7236904b0c38e403d93e12c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"438\"></p>\n<p>In the first place, with the vaccination campaign going well, I don't think this sort of demand can continue. Also, as you see, Apple's business tends to be very seasonal, and it is about to drop off on that. Mac gets a little boost in Apple's Q4, the back-to-school quarter. Now they have low end ARM laptops and desktops that are the most popular with those customers.</p>\n<p>But Apple is no longer the Mac company of course</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a328cafa40dbdfdec6b0585c652bf57b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"382\"></p>\n<p>Mac is only about 10% of their top line, so even big moves on that fat green line don't have a big effect on the consolidated Apple. Mac and iPad did&nbsp;save their fiscal 2020, however, as it was a bad year for iPhone, and the unusually high demand filled that hole.</p>\n<p>The bigger effect will be on the brewing battle of ARM versus x86 in PCs and the data center. Apple just gave everyone on the ARM side the roadmap to winning:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Focus on performance-per-Watt.</li>\n <li>Customize the SoC with the things you want for your devices and customers.</li>\n <li>Tie it all together with software.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>It also highlights a key portion of my long-term Apple bull story. Apple now has a tech stack so high and complete, there is no one else to even compare them with in the products world. The base of that stack is the chip design unit.

I think they’ve been working on it for 3-4 years.\nIt ushers in a new era of PC design centered on the ARM instruction set, not Intel’s long-dominant x86.\nApple is no longer only the Mac company, so this trend will have less effect on them than others.\nBut it also highlights a key portion of my long-term Apple bull thesis.\n\nPhoto by Nikada/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nARM Opens Up PC Design\nThis is an article is mostly about two images, and why they represent a revolution in the PC business, and soon in the data center:\n\nApple video screenshots\nThe top image is Apple's (AAPL) exploded view of their 2019 21.5\" iMac's main logic board and fan assembly. The bottom photo is the same for the 2021 23.5\" iMac which is replacing it. It's a bit of an unfair comparison, and I'll explain why, but what you see is the benefits to Apple of designing their own ARM systems-on-a-chip (SoCs), instead of using Intel's (INTC) CPUs.\n\nMuch smaller logic board. There is an array of chips that used to be on the logic board that are now integrated into to Apple's M1 SoC.\nBecause ARM chips require less power and heat dissipation, the fan assembly also takes up much less space.\n\nThe result is that Apple can open up the design of the iMac. The first part is that they were able to put a bigger screen in there, 23.5\" versus the 21.5\" they have had at the bottom of the iMac line since 2009. That's about a 20% increase in screen area and pixels, something they were unable to do for 12 years with Intel hardware.\nSecond, the iMac profile went from this:\nApple video screenshot. My favorite will always be the second from the left, Luxo Jr.\nTo this:\nApple video screenshot\nThe bulge is finally gone. Steve Jobs' vision of a desktop computer that fades into the background when you're using it, and looks great when you're not gets much closer than last week.\nWhat Is M1?\nIn 2008, less than a year after the first iPhone was in the wild, Apple bought a small company working on low-power chips, P.A. Semiconductor. As is their pattern outside of Beats, Apple was buying the IP and talent, not any product. From that came Apple's chip design unit, now widely considered the best in the world.\nThe first chip that went into a product was the A4 in iPhone 4 in 2010, which replaced the Samsung ARM SoCs they had been using. Samsung was already a handset competitor, and being dependent on them for the iPhone SoC was unacceptable. At first it was fine that these were as good as Samsung's and Qualcomm's (QCOM), but they are now widely recognized as the best smartphone SoCs. It's also a reason they have been able to dominate the tablet market for so long.\nARM is a UK company, owned by SoftBank (OTCPK:SFTBY), that does not make chips. They make an instruction set architecture that competes primarily with Intel's x86, used exclusively in PCs and data center, and open source RISC-V, currently mostly used for IoT chips. An instruction set is the very basic way in which software talks to hardware.\nThey also design core and reference designs for both CPUs (the main brain) and GPUs (graphics). All this IP gets licensed by the likes of Apple, Qualcomm, Samsung, Intel, AMD (AMD) and Nvidia (NVDA), just to name a few. Apple only licenses the instruction set and uses their own cores built around it. ARM is the subject a proposed $40 billion acquisition by Nvidia that I have believed since the beginning is unlikely to pass regulatory muster. We'll talk a bit more about that when we get to the data center.\nMacs have been built around Intel chips since 2005. What does Apple get by rolling their own ARM chips they can't get from Intel? The first things are what Intel's customers have been wanting for a while, and Intel has been unable to deliver: less power consumption, and more customization without impacting performance. Let's start with the last one first.\nWhen the first M1 Macs were released last year, even people who had high expectations like I did were surprised at how capable they were. As always, AnandTech does the best publicly available testing. A couple things to keep in mind as we look at this:\n\nM1 is a laptop-class chip for the low end of their Mac line. It is, in another way of thinking, the worst M-series SoC we will see.\nThis review was from November 2020 when the first M1 Macs hit the streets, and both Intel and AMD have updated their lines since then.\n\nHere, we look at single-core performance, as this is the vast majority of what customers who buy these Macs are doing with them:\nAnandTech. Top score is integer; bottom score is floating point. Gray = ARM; blue = Intel; red/orange = AMD.\nTwo of the top three places go to Apple chips, and one of those chips powers a cell phone. Intel's best is in fourth place. But it's actually worse than that, because AnandTech included Intel and AMD's top end desktop/gaming chips. Yes, in November, Apple had a cell phone chip that was faster than Intel's best Core i9 desktop/gaming chip in the most common tasks.\nSo that's the first part: M1 performance is not just better than other laptop CPUs, but bests Intel and AMD desktop/gaming CPUs. That brings us to the second part of this, which is power consumption and its child, heat dissipation. Everything you own can run faster at a higher power cost, but the silicon would melt without elaborate and expensive cooling systems. Many projects at Apple and every other hardware company have been killed over heat dissipation issues. It is one of the central challenges of hardware design. In laptop design, the chip's power consumption is a big determiner of battery life, so it's doubly important there.\nApple does not release this sort of data, but TDP is a measurement of CPU power consumption under full load. AnandTech estimates it at 20-24 Watts in the M1. The closest Intel and AMD could get to M1 in performance back in November were desktop/gaming chips that hit 125 Watts and 105 Watts TDP respectively. Their best laptop chips, which underperform the M1 by a lot, were 28 Watts for Intel, and 45 Watts for AMD.\nA good comparison is the 2020 Mac mini versus its Intel predecessor, the 2018 Mac mini. It is the only M1 desktop Mac in the wild right now, without the power constraints of a laptop. This is total power consumption of the whole box.\n\nThe M1 allowed Apple to reduce power consumption of the whole computer by about two-thirds both at idle and at full bore.\nCompared to M1, the x86 chips from Intel and AMD are power-hungry heat monsters that don't even perform as well. This is the Client Group at Intel, 51% of revenue in 2020, and 64% of operating income. x86 is doomed, and if Intel doesn't shift soon, they will be too. They have time, but it is dwindling.\nThere is a bit of irony here, because performance-per-Watt is exactly how Steve Jobs framed the decision to move to Intel from PowerPC in 2005.\nBut the comparison with x86 gets even more dramatic when we consider customization, the last thing Intel's customers have been asking for and not getting. In two years, they will finally have that with the opening of Intel's new foundries which will support custom packaging. The M1 is a great example of why this trend will continue to grow.\nThe days of the general-purpose CPU doing everything have been ending slowly for a long time now. A CPU can do almost everything a programmer wants it to, but for many things this comes at too high a cost of power consumption and processor time. For over a decade, the GPU has picked up a growing amount of this work, but that is also inefficient in its own ways.\nEnter the ARM system-on-a-chip. When you buy a laptop chip from Intel or AMD, it has a CPU, GPU, cache, and that's it. The SoC concept is loading more things on to the chip die. This offloads less efficient tasks from the CPU and GPU, reduces the number of chips on the main logic board, and decreases power consumption and heat.\nSo let's get back to those two images. The reason this iMac is so interesting is that though it is the fourth M1 Mac, it is the first one that is designed around the M1, not a reused design from the previous Intel-based generation. But the reason the comparison with the 2019 21.5\" iMac is a little unfair is because it now has become clear that this model has been targeted for a while by Apple as the first \"true\" M1 Mac. The 2019 model is already over 2 years old, and it was a meager upgrade to the 2017 model, except for the latest generation Intel chip. The iMac team spent that four years making the 2021 iMac.\nThe big difference is that in 2019, Apple was still putting hard drives in the base model iMac. Hard drives create a lot of heat and power consumption compared to their replacement, solid-state drives, so that's why the comparison is a little unfair. So let's look at those photos again with some annotation.\n\nSo now in the top one from 2019, you can see where the hard drive went, and why that added to heat dissipation challenges. But let's focus on the very big main logic board on the right of the top image. Flipping it over where the action is:\nAnnotated Apple video screenshot\nThe top left red box is the RAM which is now attached directly to the M1 die. Under it is the Intel Core i3 8100. The top right is Intel's Thunderbolt high-speed I/O, and below that is the AMD GPU. Thunderbolt and the GPU are now on the M1 die, and the RAM is attached directly to the die in a much smaller package. But they didn't stop there. Only about half the M1 die is CPU, GPU and cache. In addition to that, it now has:\n\nSecure Enclave and cryptography accelerators.\nApple's machine learning cores and accelerators, which had never gone in a Mac before, and are a big part of their future ambitions.\nSpecialized units to offload frequent video, audio and photo tasks from the CPU and GPU.\nAll I/O, including Intel's Thunderbolt, which Intel has never put on a SoC.\n\nThese are Apple's priorities. Qualcomm, as another example, puts 5G connectivity on their smartphone and PC ARM SoCs, which makes them a unique offering. With ARM, everyone gets the chip they want, for their priorities and customers. Details are still a little thin, but Intel will be offering this type of customization in their new foundries with custom packaging for x86, ARM or RISC-V cores. In my opinion, this was the most important part of the foundry announcement. We should expect the foundries to be operational in a couple of years.\nAnother area of customization is within the CPU cores themselves. In the ARM world, this is known as \"big.LITTLE,\" and that is not a typo. The idea is that most things people do on their PCs, tablets or smartphones, like typing this article, are not very demanding on resources. But there are times when we do need lots of performance. The LITTLE cores are optimized for power consumption, and do most of the work. But when there's heavy lifting to be done, the big cores pitch in on those tasks. The M1 has 4 of each.\nSo let's add it up so far. Switching from Intel to ARM allows Apple to reduce power consumption by two-thirds on desktops, less on laptops, with even better performance than they were getting from Intel. They also get to put a host of other things on the die that offload inefficient tasks from the CPU and GPU. The net effect of all that is this:\nAnnotated Apple video screenshot.\nThe entire computer now fits in the lower bezel. That sound you hear is my head exploding. That allows Apple to make iMac much thinner and lighter, and bump up to 23.5\" while barely making the footprint bigger. In the end, all this work on chip design is about that final product for Apple.\nThis is a long section, but I am not done. There are two other very important things Apple gets by switching to ARM:\n\nThey control their own roadmap, and are no longer dependent on Intel pushing their platform in a direction that Apple wants. Intel designs chips for a wide range of OEMs. Apple designs chips for Apple only.\nWe don't have hard figures on this, but Apple almost certainly saves money on M1 when you add it all up.\n\nThis is a home run from every single angle.\nWhat About Everyone Else?\nApple was still Intel's fourth biggest customer at 8% as estimated by Bloomberg in 2019 before the M1 announcement. The top three are the PC/server makers Dell (DELL), Lenovo (OTCPK:LNVGY), and HP(NYSE:HPQ)who together accounted for 39% of Intel revenue in 2020, 41% in 2019. You can bet that some of the first M1 Mac orders went to engineers at those companies so they could reverse engineer what Apple did.\nMicrosoft (MSFT) already has Windows 10 for ARM, but the PC makers are missing a huge piece of the puzzle - a great ARM hardware platform for Windows/Chromebook like what Apple did with the M1. Right now, a lot of Chromebooks and a few Windows PCs are built around Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 compute platform. Despite the unique feature of 5G onboard, it is widely disliked for being slow, as are many competing platforms. Microsoft is reportedly also working on their own ARM chip for their Surface line.\nBut Qualcomm just made a very big but under-appreciated acquisition that recently closed. Gerrard Williams led Apple's chip design unit in the period it went from nothing to the best in the world. In 2019, he left Apple to start his own company, Nuvia. Reportedly, Williams wanted to make a data center chip, Apple did not, and so he left to do it elsewhere. He had assembled a pretty impressive team of chip design all-stars. Apple is suing Williams, and vice-versa.\nWhat Nuvia was working on when Qualcomm snatched them up were ARM cores with an even better power-performance profile than Apple's, or so they claimed. These were intended for densely-packed data center chips, like Ampere Computing's 80-core ARM data center chip.\nI believe Qualcomm wants to get there is as well, but first they need to solve their current problems:\n\nTheir smartphone/tablet SoCs now trail Apple badly.\nTheir compute platform is underwhelming.\nTheir automotive SoCs are undifferentiated ARM chips.\n\nIntegrating Nuvia's cores solves all these problems at once. But for our discussion, the compute platform is the big issue. Once they are able to integrate Nuvia's cores into that, likely in 2023 at the earliest, there will be a really powerful Windows/Chromebook platform that competes head on with x86 PCs.\nGerrard Williams is now the SVP of Engineering at Qualcomm, and the Nuvia team is also there working under him.\nData Center\nThere are also big ARM moves in the data center happening right now. AnandTech recently tested Intel's new Ice Lake data center chips, and they included the Ampere 80-core ARM chip I mentioned a few paragraphs ago along with AMD chips. Here, we look at multicore performance, more important for big data center loads:\nAnandTech. Integer tests on left; floating-point on right. Gray = ARM; blue = Intel; red/orange = AMD.\nThe top numbers you see are all 2-socket logic board designs (\"2S\" in chart) with two CPUs on them, including the 160-core Ampere board. With Intel's stumbles, AMD leads the pack now, Ampere a close second, and Intel trailing. Keep in mind a few things about this comparison:\n\nAmpere is a small, private company whose R&D budget is a fraction of Intel's and AMD's.\nThis is Intel's newest chip, just released. Ampere will soon have a 256-core 2-socket board design that may wind up even topping AMD.\nAmpere's chip is about half the price of the Intel and AMD chips at the top there.\nIt also uses less power, though the difference is not as dramatic as the M1 comparisons we looked at. Power consumption is a key component of data center Opex.\n\nThis is what a tiny company with a tiny R&D budget can pull off. What about someone bigger? Nvidia has just announced its upcoming GRACE processors that combine their top GPUs with ARM CPUs linked together by their ultra-fast NVLink 4 bridge. Combined with the data-processing units (DPUs) they purchased with Mellanox, Nvidia is putting together a data center beast that will be entirely unique when it is released in 2023.\nFor the near-term, this is targeted at huge AI loads on supercomputers. But if the last 30 years have taught us anything about the data center, it's that today's supercomputer-scale tasks eventually become the common tasks of tomorrow. All these chips, the CPU-GPU-DPU combo, remain separate, as the requirements are too high to do what Apple did with M1. But Nvidia's eventual goal is to get them on one chip. Right now, no one is skating to where the puck is headed in the data center like Nvidia, and it relies on ARM CPU cores at the base of the stack.\nTo be clear, Nvidia can pull all this off as an ARM licensee. What they want is control over the roadmap to focus it more on ARM's Neoverse data center cores, where their interests lay.\nThis is why they are willing to make this bold $40 billion offer, though most of that is stock valued at $485 per share, well below today's price. Anyway, I have believed from the beginning that this deal will not go off. There is a lot of focus on the UK aspect of this with the inevitable news that UK regulators were going to frisk the deal. I'm not sure why anyone was surprised by that. This is the crown-jewel of UK tech.\nBut the issues are much bigger in the US and China. In the US, every ARM licensee has to be terrified by this. The bottom line is that ARM has never been part of a company that competes with its customers. It was independent when SoftBank bought it. If Nvidia bought it, they would have control over the roadmap, may take focus away from smartphone chips, and as a practical matter will have first crack at everything new. So far to my knowledge, only Qualcomm has filed a brief in opposition, but I expect more.\nBut I also don't think the Chinese government is going to allow such important IP fall into the hands of a US company given the political tensions, and what appears to be a bifurcation of technology that I don't think will reverse in the Biden administration. Chinese regulators have leverage through the ARM China joint venture. This is a long, complicated story, and since this is already a long, complicated article, I will skip it. I will happily provide details in the comments for the curious.\nJust the other day, Chinese company, Longsoon announced a new instruction set architecture. There are a lot of ways this can go, because politics are involved now. But regardless, Citi thinks there's a 10% chance the deal goes through. I think that's closer to zero. Again, Nvidia can pull off their plans as an ARM licensee, but it puts up obstacles. They will also lose the $1.25 billion breakup penalty.\nThe Supply Chain Bites Back\nApple website screenshot\nApple usually does spring product announcements in March, not April. The main products announced will not be available until the second half of May. Make what you like of that, but most of the rumors surrounding this have focused on display panel supply.\nAlso, the 4/20 date of the announcements gives a little more clarity as to why Tim Cook was not at Congressional hearings the next day. From Apple's letter to Senators Amy Klobuchar and Mike Lee from 4/11:\n\n We simply sought alternative dates in light of upcoming matters that have been scheduled for some time and that touch on similar issues.\"\n\nOther Announcements\nQuickly:\n\nThe iPad Pro is the first one really worthy of the \"Pro\" name. They are already widely used in film production, but this new one will be very popular on film sets, especially the larger one. This is a marginal market for Apple, but an important one to them.\nPaid subscriptions for podcasts just add a new line to services revenue. These need not be large, but they add up. I don't foresee this as any kind of business on the scale of the App Store, which is what it would need to be to move the needle.\nI'll be back regarding AirTags when we have more details on how they work in edge cases. Ultimately, if they sell well, it will increase the size of the Find My network, which has large implications across all Apple products.\n\nUpshot for Apple and the Rest\nThat Apple is making the best computers in their low range, and everyone else's midrange, is now beyond question. This is one of those things like iPod, iPhone, iPod, Watch and AirPods where Apple puts out something that everyone else immediately sets out to copy. They are hindered right now by a lack of a great Windows/Chromebook platform like M1, but I do not believe that will last.\nBut returning to Apple, 2020 was the biggest calendar year ever for Mac and iPad because of this:\n\nAs it relates to Apple:\n\nIn the first place, with the vaccination campaign going well, I don't think this sort of demand can continue. Also, as you see, Apple's business tends to be very seasonal, and it is about to drop off on that. Mac gets a little boost in Apple's Q4, the back-to-school quarter. Now they have low end ARM laptops and desktops that are the most popular with those customers.\nBut Apple is no longer the Mac company of course\n\nMac is only about 10% of their top line, so even big moves on that fat green line don't have a big effect on the consolidated Apple. Mac and iPad did save their fiscal 2020, however, as it was a bad year for iPhone, and the unusually high demand filled that hole.\nThe bigger effect will be on the brewing battle of ARM versus x86 in PCs and the data center. Apple just gave everyone on the ARM side the roadmap to winning:\n\nFocus on performance-per-Watt.\nCustomize the SoC with the things you want for your devices and customers.\nTie it all together with software.\n\nIt also highlights a key portion of my long-term Apple bull story. Apple now has a tech stack so high and complete, there is no one else to even compare them with in the products world. The base of that stack is the chip design unit. The new iMac highlights how their work translates into a final product when it is designed around the capabilities of the chip and vice versa.

On the other hand, the company is highly valued, considering that it has not sold a single EV yet. Entering a position in CCIV thus means that investors get access to one of the most ambitious growth stocks in the EV space, but on the other hand, the high valuation already accounts for a lot of future growth. If anything goes wrong, shares have a lot of downside potential, which makes CCIV/Lucid a high-risk/high-reward investment. That can be a good choice for some, but others will likely favor staying away or opting for lower-risk choices instead.</p>\n<p><b>CCIV Stock Price</b></p>\n<p>Churchill Capital IV, the SPAC that will merge with Lucid Motors, is currently trading at $18 per share, with a market capitalization of $4.7 billion, based on about 260 million shares. This does, however, not mean that Lucid is currently valued at only $4.7 billion. Current shareholders of CCIV will not own 100% of Lucid Motors once the two companies have merged. Instead, current public shareholders of CCIV will own about 13% of the company once the merger is completed, with Churchill sponsors owning an additional 52 million shares:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/152a045a63fef06efefe8ecd8e0d68a2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"222\"><span>Source: CCIVfiling</span></p>\n<p>Based on those numbers, Lucid is valued at around $29 billion right now, which makes Lucid one of the more expensive EV players investors can purchase today. For reference, NIO (NIO) is valued at $56 billion, XPeng (XPEV) is valued at $20 billion, Fisker (FSR) is valued at $3 billion, Lordstown Motors (RIDE) is valued at $1.4 billion, and Kandi (KNDI) is valued at $400 million. Of course, Lucid Motors' current market cap still pales compared to the $600 billion market cap that leading EV player Tesla (TSLA) is trading at.</p>\n<p>Looking at CCIV's share price, we see that those that bought early on when the SPAC went public at $10 are up about 80% in well less than a year, for an outstanding return. On the other hand, those that bought into CCIV during the hype phase when shares were trading as high as the $60s are deep in the red, having lost up to 75% of their investment to date. Valuations do matter, and the lower one got into CCIV, the better - for those that disregarded valuation and that let themselves get blinded by the hype, the Lucid story has so far not been a great one.</p>\n<p><b>Lucid Motors Outlook: Great Products - Great Growth?</b></p>\n<p>Lucid Motors is, so far, a company that hasn't delivered any vehicles yet. The company has done some business designing, manufacturing, and selling high-performance batteries for the FIA Formula E series, but apart from further developing Lucid's tech capabilities, this hasn't done a lot for the company's top line. Lucid will roll out its first commercial vehicle, the Lucid Air, later this year. Recently, management has indicated that the company plans to sell more than 577 Lucid Air vehicles this year (the reasoning for this kind of weirdly precise guidance is unknown), with rapid growth being expected for 2022. About 20,000 Lucid Air vehicles in 2022 have been the target in the past, although management&nbsp;has not committed&nbsp;to that number in recent statements.</p>\n<p>Lucid's Air will be released in four versions, the first one being the highest-priced one, called Lucid Air<i>Dream</i>. It starts at a little over $160,000, but reservations are closed already, as Lucid has enough pre-orders relative to the production that is planned. The other three versions of the Lucid Air, called<i>Grand Touring</i>,<i>Touring</i>, and<i>Pure</i>, will start at $131,000, $87,000, and $70,000 respectively. All four cars feature a relatively similar design, although there are differences when it comes to the material that is used, to power output (480-1,080hp), and to their respective range.</p>\n<p>All in all, the three versions clearly feature characteristics that qualify them for the premium/ultra-premium market segment, which is also reflected in the prices that Lucid Motors seeks from its customers. Cars are generally described as well-designed, and with features such as ultra-fast 900 Volt charging, they offer attractive specs to customers. Cars are sold in the same segment as Mercedes-Benz's (OTCPK:DMLRY) new electric S-class equivalent EQS and Tesla's Model S, and it looks like Lucid should have a lot of success in this space due to its strong design and very competitive specs. This is, however, not an overly large market segment, of course, which is why Lucid can't get to a mass-producer level selling its<i>Air</i>alone.</p>\n<p>The company plans to introduce an SUV later on called<i>Gravity</i>which is scheduled for 2023, although that is, of course, not guaranteed. SUVs are a significantly larger market segment compared to luxury sedans such as the Air, and the Gravity will likely also be sold at a lower price point. This combination should allow Lucid to increase its sales considerably versus the forecasted 20,000 vehicles next year, but the real volume expansion will come when Lucid starts selling its expected $25,000 mass-market model at some point during the 2020s. Lucid has additional sedans and SUVs planned for the future, without announcing any details yet.</p>\n<p>One thing that investors should consider is the strong technological basis Lucid is operating on. This includes plans for over-the-air updates, fast charging with 900V, a charging station network, autonomous driving capabilities, etc. The technological capabilities are exemplarily showcased by the following slide out of Lucid's investor presentation:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/54bc0819be8bab7ac087e2d312e6806d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"353\"><span>Source:Lucid presentation</span></p>\n<p>Despite being a rather small company still, Lucid does not only deliver a technological performance that is on par with peers, but actually way ahead of what other manufacturers are offering right now, at least in terms of efficiency.</p>\n<p>Lucid also has a highly experienced management team, with key personal having previously worked at companies such as Tesla, Jaguar, Audi, Ford (F), and so on. The combination of strong tech, great design, and industry experience results in an above-average chance for success in the EV market that will be highly competitive in coming years. Additionally, Lucid also has plans to become a player in energy storage, following Tesla's path to some degree - although it should be noted that Tesla's energy storage business is not profitable yet. There is, of course, not guarantee for success, and it can't be ruled out that Lucid will eventually fail, although I believe that this is an unlikely scenario.</p>\n<p><b>CCIV Stock Forecast</b></p>\n<p>Looking at Lucid's models and its technological capabilities, it seems highly likely that the company will be able to generate compelling growth in the coming years. This does, however, not automatically translate into share price gains for CCIV/Lucid. Growth prospects for a company, or even an industry, do not necessarily mean that equity investors will see gains - sometimes, growth is already priced in. This is clearly shown by the fate of many tech stocks during the dot.com bubble when their underlying business growth remained intact, but shares still sold off massively, as prices already more than accounted for future growth prospects.</p>\n<p>The same may be true for Lucid/CCIV and/or other EV stocks, as valuations in this industry are quite high across the board. Before investing, investors also should consider the following issues that hold true for the automobile industry in general, including legacy names: The automobile industry is cyclical, which means that companies, generally, are vulnerable to recessions. On top of that, automobile companies are capital intensive, generate relatively low returns on capital, and don't operate with strong margins. This is in stark contrast to more attractive industries such as tech, where margins and returns on capital are way higher while resilience versus recessions is superior as well. This isn't a Lucid-specific threat or issue, but something that investors should keep in mind when making any type of EV investment. In a similar way, investors should also always consider that the EV market is highly competitive already and might become even more competitive in coming years, as more legacy automakers introduce EV models, while government support for the industry<i>might</i>fade.</p>\n<p>Considering these facts, still, a case can be made that CCIV is attractively priced right now.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a68f85a750397e4ee7c3cfc1bf222a9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"356\"><span>Source: Lucid presentation</span></p>\n<p>Lucid forecasts revenue of $10 billion for 2024. Even when we cut that by 20% in order to factor in that management expectations may be too aggressive, even an $8 billion revenue estimate for 2024 could result in ample upside. Tesla is trading for 18 times trailing revenue (according to YCharts), so by that logic, Lucid may be valued at $144 billion at the end of 2024. Even when we cut this estimate by another 50% in order to account for the fact that Tesla may be overvalued right now (something I personally do believe), a $72 billion market for Lucid in 2024 would leave ample upside potential. Right now, the company is valued at $29 billion, so in this scenario, shares could rise by about 150% over the next three and a half years - while still trading at a massive discount to Tesla, and even when we assume that management's guidance will be missed by 20%. In a similar fashion, one could also show a large discount versus Tesla's valuation based on expected deliveries, EBITDA, and free cash flow in coming years. Tesla, for example, trades at 270 times trailing free cash flows. Since Lucid expects $1.5 billion in free cash flow for 2026, shares might have an upside potential of several hundred percentage points over the coming five years - even when we do, again, cut Tesla's valuation in half and assume that management's estimates are 20% too high.</p>\n<p><b>Is CCIV Stock A Buy Or Sell</b></p>\n<p>I don't think that CCIV stock is a sell - those that own it should have sold at $50 or $60 when the valuation was outrageously high. Selling now, when shares are down so much over the last couple of weeks, wouldn't make sense, I believe.</p>\n<p>Does this mean that CCIV is a buy now? It depends, I'd say. The company has a great product coming out, is well-positioned from a technological perspective, and if management can deliver on its growth goals, shares are way cheaper than those of peers such as Tesla. On the other hand, it is not at all known whether Lucid's ambitious growth goals will indeed be met, and compared to legacy automakers, Lucid looks rather expensive. CCIV, which will turn into shares of Lucid, looks like one of the better picks in the EV space I believe, based on its growth outlook and strong tech. But since the whole EV industry looks rather expensive, that may not mean too much - depending on how bullish you are on the EV space in general. I personally would rate CCIV a hold for most, and a potential buy for those with some appetite for risk who are looking for an investment with a strong return outlook in a bullish scenario.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Is Churchill Capital Stock A Buy Or Sell?

If anything goes wrong, shares have a lot of downside potential, which makes CCIV/Lucid a high-risk/high-reward investment. That can be a good choice for some, but others will likely favor staying away or opting for lower-risk choices instead.\nCCIV Stock Price\nChurchill Capital IV, the SPAC that will merge with Lucid Motors, is currently trading at $18 per share, with a market capitalization of $4.7 billion, based on about 260 million shares. This does, however, not mean that Lucid is currently valued at only $4.7 billion. Current shareholders of CCIV will not own 100% of Lucid Motors once the two companies have merged. Instead, current public shareholders of CCIV will own about 13% of the company once the merger is completed, with Churchill sponsors owning an additional 52 million shares:\nSource: CCIVfiling\nBased on those numbers, Lucid is valued at around $29 billion right now, which makes Lucid one of the more expensive EV players investors can purchase today. For reference, NIO (NIO) is valued at $56 billion, XPeng (XPEV) is valued at $20 billion, Fisker (FSR) is valued at $3 billion, Lordstown Motors (RIDE) is valued at $1.4 billion, and Kandi (KNDI) is valued at $400 million. Of course, Lucid Motors' current market cap still pales compared to the $600 billion market cap that leading EV player Tesla (TSLA) is trading at.\nLooking at CCIV's share price, we see that those that bought early on when the SPAC went public at $10 are up about 80% in well less than a year, for an outstanding return. On the other hand, those that bought into CCIV during the hype phase when shares were trading as high as the $60s are deep in the red, having lost up to 75% of their investment to date. Valuations do matter, and the lower one got into CCIV, the better - for those that disregarded valuation and that let themselves get blinded by the hype, the Lucid story has so far not been a great one.\nLucid Motors Outlook: Great Products - Great Growth?\nLucid Motors is, so far, a company that hasn't delivered any vehicles yet. The company has done some business designing, manufacturing, and selling high-performance batteries for the FIA Formula E series, but apart from further developing Lucid's tech capabilities, this hasn't done a lot for the company's top line. Lucid will roll out its first commercial vehicle, the Lucid Air, later this year. Recently, management has indicated that the company plans to sell more than 577 Lucid Air vehicles this year (the reasoning for this kind of weirdly precise guidance is unknown), with rapid growth being expected for 2022. About 20,000 Lucid Air vehicles in 2022 have been the target in the past, although management has not committed to that number in recent statements.\nLucid's Air will be released in four versions, the first one being the highest-priced one, called Lucid AirDream. It starts at a little over $160,000, but reservations are closed already, as Lucid has enough pre-orders relative to the production that is planned. The other three versions of the Lucid Air, calledGrand Touring,Touring, andPure, will start at $131,000, $87,000, and $70,000 respectively. All four cars feature a relatively similar design, although there are differences when it comes to the material that is used, to power output (480-1,080hp), and to their respective range.\nAll in all, the three versions clearly feature characteristics that qualify them for the premium/ultra-premium market segment, which is also reflected in the prices that Lucid Motors seeks from its customers. Cars are generally described as well-designed, and with features such as ultra-fast 900 Volt charging, they offer attractive specs to customers. Cars are sold in the same segment as Mercedes-Benz's (OTCPK:DMLRY) new electric S-class equivalent EQS and Tesla's Model S, and it looks like Lucid should have a lot of success in this space due to its strong design and very competitive specs. This is, however, not an overly large market segment, of course, which is why Lucid can't get to a mass-producer level selling itsAiralone.\nThe company plans to introduce an SUV later on calledGravitywhich is scheduled for 2023, although that is, of course, not guaranteed. SUVs are a significantly larger market segment compared to luxury sedans such as the Air, and the Gravity will likely also be sold at a lower price point. This combination should allow Lucid to increase its sales considerably versus the forecasted 20,000 vehicles next year, but the real volume expansion will come when Lucid starts selling its expected $25,000 mass-market model at some point during the 2020s. Lucid has additional sedans and SUVs planned for the future, without announcing any details yet.\nOne thing that investors should consider is the strong technological basis Lucid is operating on. This includes plans for over-the-air updates, fast charging with 900V, a charging station network, autonomous driving capabilities, etc. The technological capabilities are exemplarily showcased by the following slide out of Lucid's investor presentation:\nSource:Lucid presentation\nDespite being a rather small company still, Lucid does not only deliver a technological performance that is on par with peers, but actually way ahead of what other manufacturers are offering right now, at least in terms of efficiency.\nLucid also has a highly experienced management team, with key personal having previously worked at companies such as Tesla, Jaguar, Audi, Ford (F), and so on. The combination of strong tech, great design, and industry experience results in an above-average chance for success in the EV market that will be highly competitive in coming years. Additionally, Lucid also has plans to become a player in energy storage, following Tesla's path to some degree - although it should be noted that Tesla's energy storage business is not profitable yet. There is, of course, not guarantee for success, and it can't be ruled out that Lucid will eventually fail, although I believe that this is an unlikely scenario.\nCCIV Stock Forecast\nLooking at Lucid's models and its technological capabilities, it seems highly likely that the company will be able to generate compelling growth in the coming years. This does, however, not automatically translate into share price gains for CCIV/Lucid. Growth prospects for a company, or even an industry, do not necessarily mean that equity investors will see gains - sometimes, growth is already priced in. This is clearly shown by the fate of many tech stocks during the dot.com bubble when their underlying business growth remained intact, but shares still sold off massively, as prices already more than accounted for future growth prospects.\nThe same may be true for Lucid/CCIV and/or other EV stocks, as valuations in this industry are quite high across the board. Before investing, investors also should consider the following issues that hold true for the automobile industry in general, including legacy names: The automobile industry is cyclical, which means that companies, generally, are vulnerable to recessions. On top of that, automobile companies are capital intensive, generate relatively low returns on capital, and don't operate with strong margins. This is in stark contrast to more attractive industries such as tech, where margins and returns on capital are way higher while resilience versus recessions is superior as well. This isn't a Lucid-specific threat or issue, but something that investors should keep in mind when making any type of EV investment. In a similar way, investors should also always consider that the EV market is highly competitive already and might become even more competitive in coming years, as more legacy automakers introduce EV models, while government support for the industrymightfade.\nConsidering these facts, still, a case can be made that CCIV is attractively priced right now.\nSource: Lucid presentation\nLucid forecasts revenue of $10 billion for 2024. Even when we cut that by 20% in order to factor in that management expectations may be too aggressive, even an $8 billion revenue estimate for 2024 could result in ample upside. Tesla is trading for 18 times trailing revenue (according to YCharts), so by that logic, Lucid may be valued at $144 billion at the end of 2024. Even when we cut this estimate by another 50% in order to account for the fact that Tesla may be overvalued right now (something I personally do believe), a $72 billion market for Lucid in 2024 would leave ample upside potential. Right now, the company is valued at $29 billion, so in this scenario, shares could rise by about 150% over the next three and a half years - while still trading at a massive discount to Tesla, and even when we assume that management's guidance will be missed by 20%. In a similar fashion, one could also show a large discount versus Tesla's valuation based on expected deliveries, EBITDA, and free cash flow in coming years. Tesla, for example, trades at 270 times trailing free cash flows. Since Lucid expects $1.5 billion in free cash flow for 2026, shares might have an upside potential of several hundred percentage points over the coming five years - even when we do, again, cut Tesla's valuation in half and assume that management's estimates are 20% too high.\nIs CCIV Stock A Buy Or Sell\nI don't think that CCIV stock is a sell - those that own it should have sold at $50 or $60 when the valuation was outrageously high. Selling now, when shares are down so much over the last couple of weeks, wouldn't make sense, I believe.\nDoes this mean that CCIV is a buy now? It depends, I'd say. The company has a great product coming out, is well-positioned from a technological perspective, and if management can deliver on its growth goals, shares are way cheaper than those of peers such as Tesla. On the other hand, it is not at all known whether Lucid's ambitious growth goals will indeed be met, and compared to legacy automakers, Lucid looks rather expensive. CCIV, which will turn into shares of Lucid, looks like one of the better picks in the EV space I believe, based on its growth outlook and strong tech. But since the whole EV industry looks rather expensive, that may not mean too much - depending on how bullish you are on the EV space in general. I personally would rate CCIV a hold for most, and a potential buy for those with some appetite for risk who are looking for an investment with a strong return outlook in a bullish scenario.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":160,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371979478,"gmtCreate":1618906791994,"gmtModify":1704716664997,"author":{"id":"3568703412864236","authorId":"3568703412864236","authorIdStr":"3568703412864236","name":"Sagongjin","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c0d8ffa62cb7b206ec9c7565f8cc82a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3568703412864236"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice!
