The REIT also has close to three-quarters of its loans on fixed rates.Lendlease Global Commercial REIT (SGX: JYEU)Lendlease Global Commercial REIT, or LREIT, is an office cum retail REIT that owns Jem, 313 Somerset, both in Singapore, and an interest in Sky Complex in Milan, Italy.These properties have an AUM of S$3.6 billion as of 30 June 2022.LREIT reported a decent set of earnings for its fiscal 2023’s first half (1H FY2023).Gross revenue more than doubled year on year to S$101.7 million as Jem was added to the REIT’s portfolio.NPI surged 157.8% year on year to S$76.4 million while DPU inched up 2.1% year on year to S$0.0245.The REIT’s gearing ratio stood at 39.2% with a low weighted average cost of debt of 2.35%.Committed occupancy was very high at 99.8%.The DRIP will apply to the 1H FY2023 DPU and the issue price of new units will be set at around 2% lower than the units’ VWAP.Starhill Global REIT (SGX: P40U)Starhill Global REIT, or SGREIT, owns a portfolio of 10 retail and office properties in Singapore, Australia, Malaysia, Japan, and China.The portfolio was valued at S$2.9 billion as of 31 December 2022.SGREIT’s 1H FY2023 saw revenue rise 4.1% year on year to S$94.7 million.NPI increased by 6.7% year on year to S$74.3 million while DPU edged up 2.2% year on year to S$0.0182.The REIT’s occupancy stayed high at 97.1% with its portfolio boasting a long weighted average lease expiry of 6.8 years by net lettable area.SGREIT’s gearing stood at just 36.3%, opening the REIT up for debt-fuelled acquisitions.Around 84% of its loans are on fixed rates and its cost of debt came in at 3.28%.The REIT manager has confirmed that the DRIP will apply to the 1H FY2023 DPU and that new units will be issued at a 2% discount to the VWAP.After books closure, management announced that the DRIP issue price is S$0.5661 per unit.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":615,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9952583079,"gmtCreate":1674811891291,"gmtModify":1676538960285,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3569215424377171","authorIdStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a

in volatile trading on Wednesday following a policy announcement by the Federal Reserve that raised interest rates by an expected 50 basis points, but its economic projections see higher rates for a longer period.</p><p>The central bank raised interest rates by half a percentage point on Wednesday and projected at least an additional 75 basis points of increases in borrowing costs by the end of 2023, as well as a rise in unemployment and a near-stalling of economic growth.</p><p>The Fed&#39;s latest quarterly summary of economic projections shows U.S. central bankers see the policy rate - now in the 4.25%-to-4.5% range - at 5.1% by the end of next year, according to the median estimate of all 19 Fed policymakers, up from the 4.6% view at the end of September.</p><p>In comments after the statement, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said it was too soon to talk about cutting rates as the focus is on making the central bank&#39;s policy stance restrictive enough to push inflation down to its 2% goal.</p><p>Economic data on Tuesday, which showed cooling consumer inflation for November, had heightened expectations a move by the Fed to halt rate hikes might be on the horizon next year.</p><p>“They may be using these sort of very aggressive dot plot forecasts to take any steam out of the easing that has gone on in the last couple of months,&#34; said Rhys Williams, chief

easing really happen until they see unemployment go up.&#34;</p><p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 142.29 points, or 0.42%, to 33,966.35, the S&amp;P 500 lost 24.33 points, or 0.61%, to 3,995.32 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 85.93 points, or 0.76%, to 11,170.89.</p><p>Nearly all of the 11 major S&amp;P sectors ended the session in negative territory, with healthcare the sole advancer. Financials, down 1.29%, were the worst performing sector.</p><p>Despite the Fed statement, U.S. Treasury yields were slightly lower after initially jumping in the wake of the announcement.</p><p>The strategy of aggressive interest rate increases by major central banks around the world this year has increased worries the global economy could be pushed into a recession and weighed heavily on riskier assets such as equities this year.</p><p>Each of the three major averages on Wall Street are on track for their first yearly decline since 2018, and their biggest yearly percentage decline since the financial crisis of 2008.</p><p>Tesla Inc slipped 2.58% after a Goldman Sachs analyst trimmed the price target for the electric-vehicle maker&#39;s stock.</p><p>Charter Communications Inc tumbled 16.38% as brokerages cut their price targets following the telecom services firm&#39;s mega-spending plans for a higher-speed internet upgrade.</p><p>Volume on U.S. exchanges was 12.15 billion shares, compared with the 10.55 billion-share average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.</p><p>Declining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 1.39-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 1.42-to-1 ratio favored decliners.</p><p>The S&amp;P 500 posted eight new 52-week highs and two new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 82 new highs and 223 new lows.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

What Comes Next","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1168786172","media":"Barron's","summary":"The biggest scandal in crypto involves celebrities, sports stars, Caribbean intrigue, and a corporat","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The biggest scandal in crypto involves celebrities, sports stars, Caribbean intrigue, and a corporate mystery: How, exactly, did a company valued at $32 billion go bankrupt almost overnight? In hindsight, Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX empire displayed legions of red flags. But its fall has been striking, even to veterans of the largest blowups in corporate history.</p><p>“Never in my career have I seen such a complete failure of corporate controls,” said John J. Ray, the new CEO of FTX, in a bankruptcy court filing. That’s quite a comment coming from the lawyer who cleaned up Enron’s bankruptcy two decades ago.</p><p>FTX has spilled blood in the streets. But far more is likely to come, and this is no time to play bargain hunter. Yes, Bitcoin and other tokens have lost more than 20%. And stocks like Coinbase Global (ticker: COIN), Silvergate Capital (SI), and Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) have been slammed. More than $200 billion has been wiped off token market value since FTX started cracking in early November.</p><p>But nothing about this crisis indicates that it will end soon. Damage to the crypto ecosystem’s credibility is unquantifiable. And more fallout is likely as other trading platforms reveal exposures to FTX and related entities, potentially pushing down token prices, crypto-related stocks, and companies even more.</p><p>Government investigations of FTX are just starting, and lawsuits are piling up. One is already targeting celebrities like Tom Brady, Larry David, and Stephen Curry for promoting FTX on its website and in a Super Bowl ad.</p><p>“We knew crypto had a highly unstable value, and now we know the platforms for trading and storing them are unreliable,” says Cornell University economist Eswar Prasad, a leading digital-asset expert. “Even the basic requirement that assets can be kept securely is not met by crypto.”</p><p>In Washington, calls for comprehensive crypto rules are intensifying, including a plea this past week from Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen; she said it’s “vital” to address the industry’s risks, protect consumers, and promote financial stability. “The dominoes aren’t done falling,” says Matt Hougan, chief investment officer of Bitwise Asset Management, a crypto index fund provider. “Contagion risk will keep people out of the market, and I don’t know what other shoe will drop.”</p><p>One might draw two conclusions. The first is that crypto has sealed its own coffin as an asset class—proving beyond a reasonable doubt that it’s the “mother of all scams,” in the words of New York University economist Nouriel Roubini.</p><p>The other possible conclusion is that crypto is simply proving itself irrelevant. A decade into its development, the technology has yet to make serious inroads into mainstream financial markets or commerce. The latest fiasco hasn’t dented broader financial markets. The S&amp;P 500 index is up 3.7% since FTX fell apart. Spreads in yields between corporate bonds and Treasuries—another sign of stress—haven’t blown out like they did during the 2008-09 financial crisis.</p><p>Hougan, for one, calls both conclusions silly. “One exchange engaging in bad activity doesn’t mean the end of crypto, blockchain technologies, or programmable money,” he says. Bitwise hasn’t seen meaningful outflows from its institutional clients, he adds, partly because they still believe in the technology and are willing to wait for this crisis to blow over.</p><p>Others in the industry say there will be a silver lining: Regulation will finally kick in, preventing other blowups. “One of the bad outcomes that could come here is conflating clear examples of human misconduct with the technology,” says Dante Disparte, chief strategy officer of Circle, the company backing the $44 billionUSDC stablecoin. “It’s precisely because of something like this that we need to regulate the industry.”</p><p>In short, crypto probably won’t die, but it won’t be the same in a post-FTX world. More than ever, it needs government supervision, audited financial statements, consumer protections, and transparency to survive and advance. Turning crypto into a regulated medium of exchange goes against the original libertarian ethos of Bitcoin—designed to avoid the strictures of government and corporate control. The industry may have little choice, however, if it wants to survive.</p><h2>The Collapse of a $32 Billion Empire and Its Aftermath</h2><p>This past week brought a flurry of revelations about potential malfeasance at Bahamas-based FTX. Corporate funds were used to buy homes in the Bahamas and other personal items for employees, Ray’s filing said, with no documentation of the transactions as loans. Expenses were filed in online chats, approved with personalized emojis.</p><p>FTX didn’t keep appropriate books and records, Ray noted, and its unacceptable practices included the use of software “to conceal the misuse of customer funds.”</p><p>How much money has been lost isn’t known. Ray noted an unauthorized transfer of $372 million of crypto and said someone had minted $300 million in unapproved tokens, diluting their value. The balance sheet has a hole of $8 billion to $10 billion, including $1 billion to $2 billion in customer assets that have gone missing, according to Reuters and other media reports. Bankman-Fried received a $1 billion loan from Alameda Research, his trading company, Ray said.</p><p>More than a million customers, creditors, and investors in FTX and related entities are now trying to recoup funds. But even the jurisdiction of FTX’s remaining assets is in dispute. The Bahamas Securities Commission said on Thursday that it had directed the transfer of all FTX Digital Markets’ assets to a wallet it controls “for safekeeping,” a sign that jurisdictional battles over the bankruptcy could delay customer recoveries even further.</p><p>Neither an FTX representative nor Bankman-Fried responded to requests for comment. Bankman-Fried has continued posting on Twitter, apologizing, explaining, and making sometimes bizarre comments. He “continues to make erratic and misleading public statements,” Ray said, citing a Twitter chat with a reporter where Bankman-Fried said, “F____ regulators they make everything worse.”</p><p>Other crypto players are struggling to contain the fallout. High-yield lender BlockFi, itself the recipient of a bailout by Bankman-Fried, has frozen customer deposits. Genesis Global Capital, a large lender, stopped withdrawals, leading Gemini Trust, an exchange founded by the Winklevoss twins, with ties to Genesis, to do the same with its yield-paying accounts.</p><p>“Genesis has been exploring all possible options and has been having positive conversations with potential investors,” a spokesperson said in a statement to<i>Barron’s</i>.</p><p>Another casualty has been Grayscale Bitcoin Trust, the largest publicly traded Bitcoin fund with $10.5 billion worth of the token. The trust’s publicly traded security, GBTC, fell to a 40% discount to its underlying Bitcoin assets this past week. ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood saw that as a bargain, buying more than 300,000 shares of GBTC for her ARK Next Generation Internet exchange-traded fund (ARKW). But GBTC’s discount reflects skepticism that Bitcoin isn’t done falling, and the discount could widen further due to forced-selling as more crypto entities come under pressure.</p><p>Other exchanges are racing to reassure customers. Coinbase says it doesn’t take actions with customer assets without their permission. Crypto.com says it fully backs customer assets with reserves. Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao has tried to reassure customers of his exchange, the world’s largest by volume, while calling for other exchanges to publish “proof of reserves.”</p><p>For now, the token market appears to be taking all of this in stride. Bitcoin’s price has dropped about 20%, and Ether’s price has fallen 24%. That’s not remarkable in the volatile token market, says The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania’s professor Kevin Werbach, who called for more crypto regulations in a Senate hearing last February, alongside Bankman-Fried. “If I told you to look at the trading chart of most cryptocurrencies and asked you to identify the period right after the most spectacular failure in the history of the space, you’d probably not pick this out,” Werbach says.</p><h2>Crypto Comes Crawling to D.C.</h2><p>As bulls see it, FTX’s failure will prompt Washington to pass comprehensive rules. Indeed, the best outcome may be crypto versions of Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank—the sweeping rule changes for Wall Street that came after Enron’s collapse in 2002 and the 2008-09 financial crisis. Those rules included criminal liability for executives intentionally misstating accounting, new capital buffer requirements for banks, and far more consumer protections.</p><p>U.S. policy makers are now redoubling efforts in crypto. In December, a House panel plans to hold a hearing on FTX. Next year, Congress is likely to consider bills that would require exchanges and brokerages to register with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and/or the Securities and Exchange Commission. Regulators will also be under pressure to ensure that the FTX model of co-mingling customer assets with proprietary trading entities never happens again. That separation of assets is now a bedrock of equity broker/dealers and exchanges, but it’s often absent in crypto.</p><p>Without guardrails, deep-pocketed investors like family offices and sovereign-wealth funds will stay away, says Monsur Hussain, global head of research for financial institutions at Fitch Ratings. “Some funds and family offices have liquidated at least part of their holdings until they see the dust settle,” he says.</p><p>The White House also wants rules for stablecoins, which are used extensively for crypto banking and trading. Circle and other stablecoin companies have lobbied hard for rules. But the market itself has been shrinking, falling by $25 billion since peaking last May at $186 billion. “It would be difficult here to imagine a sustained recovery in crypto prices without the shrinkage of the stablecoin universe stopping,” wrote analysts at J.P. Morgan in a note.</p><p>If there are winners in the fiasco, it may be companies that are already extensively regulated. Andrei Kazantsev, global head of crypto trading for Goldman Sachs, said at a conference that he’d seen a “flight to quality” from institutions seeking safe counterparties, instead of using unregulated exchanges and trading platforms.</p><p>Yet Coinbase, a beneficiary of that flight to safety, faces new headwinds.Bank of America downgraded the stock to Neutral on Friday, citing “diminished confidence in the crypto ecosystem,” especially among the exchange’s core retail customer base. BofA also sees revenue risk to Coinbase if there’s “sustained further deterioration” in crypto asset prices, such as Bitcoin going to $10,000 from its recent $16,600.</p><p>“How far does this go? As much I keep hoping things will get better, things keep getting worse,” says D.A.

In hindsight, Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX empire displayed legions of red flags. But its fall has been striking, even to veterans of the largest blowups in corporate history.“Never in my career have I seen such a complete failure of corporate controls,” said John J. Ray, the new CEO of FTX, in a bankruptcy court filing. That’s quite a comment coming from the lawyer who cleaned up Enron’s bankruptcy two decades ago.FTX has spilled blood in the streets. But far more is likely to come, and this is no time to play bargain hunter. Yes, Bitcoin and other tokens have lost more than 20%. And stocks like Coinbase Global (ticker: COIN), Silvergate Capital (SI), and Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) have been slammed. More than $200 billion has been wiped off token market value since FTX started cracking in early November.But nothing about this crisis indicates that it will end soon. Damage to the crypto ecosystem’s credibility is unquantifiable. And more fallout is likely as other trading platforms reveal exposures to FTX and related entities, potentially pushing down token prices, crypto-related stocks, and companies even more.Government investigations of FTX are just starting, and lawsuits are piling up. One is already targeting celebrities like Tom Brady, Larry David, and Stephen Curry for promoting FTX on its website and in a Super Bowl ad.“We knew crypto had a highly unstable value, and now we know the platforms for trading and storing them are unreliable,” says Cornell University economist Eswar Prasad, a leading digital-asset expert. “Even the basic requirement that assets can be kept securely is not met by crypto.”In Washington, calls for comprehensive crypto rules are intensifying, including a plea this past week from Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen; she said it’s “vital” to address the industry’s risks, protect consumers, and promote financial stability. “The dominoes aren’t done falling,” says Matt Hougan, chief investment officer of Bitwise Asset Management, a crypto index fund provider. “Contagion risk will keep people out of the market, and I don’t know what other shoe will drop.”One might draw two conclusions. The first is that crypto has sealed its own coffin as an asset class—proving beyond a reasonable doubt that it’s the “mother of all scams,” in the words of New York University economist Nouriel Roubini.The other possible conclusion is that crypto is simply proving itself irrelevant. A decade into its development, the technology has yet to make serious inroads into mainstream financial markets or commerce. The latest fiasco hasn’t dented broader financial markets. The S&P 500 index is up 3.7% since FTX fell apart. Spreads in yields between corporate bonds and Treasuries—another sign of stress—haven’t blown out like they did during the 2008-09 financial crisis.Hougan, for one, calls both conclusions silly. “One exchange engaging in bad activity doesn’t mean the end of crypto, blockchain technologies, or programmable money,” he says. Bitwise hasn’t seen meaningful outflows from its institutional clients, he adds, partly because they still believe in the technology and are willing to wait for this crisis to blow over.Others in the industry say there will be a silver lining: Regulation will finally kick in, preventing other blowups. “One of the bad outcomes that could come here is conflating clear examples of human misconduct with the technology,” says Dante Disparte, chief strategy officer of Circle, the company backing the $44 billionUSDC stablecoin. “It’s precisely because of something like this that we need to regulate the industry.”In short, crypto probably won’t die, but it won’t be the same in a post-FTX world. More than ever, it needs government supervision, audited financial statements, consumer protections, and transparency to survive and advance. Turning crypto into a regulated medium of exchange goes against the original libertarian ethos of Bitcoin—designed to avoid the strictures of government and corporate control. The industry may have little choice, however, if it wants to survive.The Collapse of a $32 Billion Empire and Its AftermathThis past week brought a flurry of revelations about potential malfeasance at Bahamas-based FTX. Corporate funds were used to buy homes in the Bahamas and other personal items for employees, Ray’s filing said, with no documentation of the transactions as loans. Expenses were filed in online chats, approved with personalized emojis.FTX didn’t keep appropriate books and records, Ray noted, and its unacceptable practices included the use of software “to conceal the misuse of customer funds.”How much money has been lost isn’t known. Ray noted an unauthorized transfer of $372 million of crypto and said someone had minted $300 million in unapproved tokens, diluting their value. The balance sheet has a hole of $8 billion to $10 billion, including $1 billion to $2 billion in customer assets that have gone missing, according to Reuters and other media reports. Bankman-Fried received a $1 billion loan from Alameda Research, his trading company, Ray said.More than a million customers, creditors, and investors in FTX and related entities are now trying to recoup funds. But even the jurisdiction of FTX’s remaining assets is in dispute. The Bahamas Securities Commission said on Thursday that it had directed the transfer of all FTX Digital Markets’ assets to a wallet it controls “for safekeeping,” a sign that jurisdictional battles over the bankruptcy could delay customer recoveries even further.Neither an FTX representative nor Bankman-Fried responded to requests for comment. Bankman-Fried has continued posting on Twitter, apologizing, explaining, and making sometimes bizarre comments. He “continues to make erratic and misleading public statements,” Ray said, citing a Twitter chat with a reporter where Bankman-Fried said, “F____ regulators they make everything worse.”Other crypto players are struggling to contain the fallout. High-yield lender BlockFi, itself the recipient of a bailout by Bankman-Fried, has frozen customer deposits. Genesis Global Capital, a large lender, stopped withdrawals, leading Gemini Trust, an exchange founded by the Winklevoss twins, with ties to Genesis, to do the same with its yield-paying accounts.“Genesis has been exploring all possible options and has been having positive conversations with potential investors,” a spokesperson said in a statement toBarron’s.Another casualty has been Grayscale Bitcoin Trust, the largest publicly traded Bitcoin fund with $10.5 billion worth of the token. The trust’s publicly traded security, GBTC, fell to a 40% discount to its underlying Bitcoin assets this past week. ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood saw that as a bargain, buying more than 300,000 shares of GBTC for her ARK Next Generation Internet exchange-traded fund (ARKW). But GBTC’s discount reflects skepticism that Bitcoin isn’t done falling, and the discount could widen further due to forced-selling as more crypto entities come under pressure.Other exchanges are racing to reassure customers. Coinbase says it doesn’t take actions with customer assets without their permission. Crypto.com says it fully backs customer assets with reserves. Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao has tried to reassure customers of his exchange, the world’s largest by volume, while calling for other exchanges to publish “proof of reserves.”For now, the token market appears to be taking all of this in stride. Bitcoin’s price has dropped about 20%, and Ether’s price has fallen 24%. That’s not remarkable in the volatile token market, says The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania’s professor Kevin Werbach, who called for more crypto regulations in a Senate hearing last February, alongside Bankman-Fried. “If I told you to look at the trading chart of most cryptocurrencies and asked you to identify the period right after the most spectacular failure in the history of the space, you’d probably not pick this out,” Werbach says.Crypto Comes Crawling to D.C.As bulls see it, FTX’s failure will prompt Washington to pass comprehensive rules. Indeed, the best outcome may be crypto versions of Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank—the sweeping rule changes for Wall Street that came after Enron’s collapse in 2002 and the 2008-09 financial crisis. Those rules included criminal liability for executives intentionally misstating accounting, new capital buffer requirements for banks, and far more consumer protections.U.S. policy makers are now redoubling efforts in crypto. In December, a House panel plans to hold a hearing on FTX. Next year, Congress is likely to consider bills that would require exchanges and brokerages to register with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and/or the Securities and Exchange Commission. Regulators will also be under pressure to ensure that the FTX model of co-mingling customer assets with proprietary trading entities never happens again. That separation of assets is now a bedrock of equity broker/dealers and exchanges, but it’s often absent in crypto.Without guardrails, deep-pocketed investors like family offices and sovereign-wealth funds will stay away, says Monsur Hussain, global head of research for financial institutions at Fitch Ratings. “Some funds and family offices have liquidated at least part of their holdings until they see the dust settle,” he says.The White House also wants rules for stablecoins, which are used extensively for crypto banking and trading. Circle and other stablecoin companies have lobbied hard for rules. But the market itself has been shrinking, falling by $25 billion since peaking last May at $186 billion. “It would be difficult here to imagine a sustained recovery in crypto prices without the shrinkage of the stablecoin universe stopping,” wrote analysts at J.P. Morgan in a note.If there are winners in the fiasco, it may be companies that are already extensively regulated. Andrei Kazantsev, global head of crypto trading for Goldman Sachs, said at a conference that he’d seen a “flight to quality” from institutions seeking safe counterparties, instead of using unregulated exchanges and trading platforms.Yet Coinbase, a beneficiary of that flight to safety, faces new headwinds.Bank of America downgraded the stock to Neutral on Friday, citing “diminished confidence in the crypto ecosystem,” especially among the exchange’s core retail customer base. BofA also sees revenue risk to Coinbase if there’s “sustained further deterioration” in crypto asset prices, such as Bitcoin going to $10,000 from its recent $16,600.“How far does this go? As much I keep hoping things will get better, things keep getting worse,” says D.A. Davidson analyst Chris Brendler, who maintained a Buy on Coinbase.Some advisors say there’s no rush to get into crypto. “There’s nothing wrong with putting this in the ‘too hard’ pile,” says Meb Faber, CEO of Cambria Investment Management.FTX now appears likely to join Enron, Lehman, and Madoff in the pantheon of corporate failures. But the chaos it’s creating in crypto is no reason to buy the dip. “I don’t think this is a value opportunity,” says Deutsche Bank strategist Marion Laboure.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":322,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9961353618,"gmtCreate":1668849806635,"gmtModify":1676538121671,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3569215424377171","authorIdStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"A bigger scheme devouring the smaller scheme...

has been affected by the implosion of popular cryptocurrency trading firm FTX.</p><p>FTX was one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges before it sought bankruptcy protection last week.</p><p>Its CEO and founder, Sam-Bankman Fried, has also resigned.</p><p>Temasek has released a statement confirming that it will write down its entire US$275 million investment in FTX, regardless of the outcome of the latter’s bankruptcy filing.</p><p>The US$275 million investment was made in two separate tranches between October 2021 to January 2022 for a 2.5% stake in the cryptocurrency outfit.</p><p>It also clarified that it did not invest directly in cryptocurrencies.</p><p>The due diligence process for FTX was extensive and lasted approximately eight months, during which Temasek reviewed the cryptocurrency exchange’s audited financial statements and spoke to numerous people familiar with FTX and its operations.</p><p>Its US$275 million investment made up 0.09% of its total portfolio value of US$403 billion as of 31 March 2022.</p><p>Temasek’s rationale for investing in FTX is based on its belief that cryptocurrency exchanges form a key part of the global financial system.</p><p>Hence, its thesis involved gaining exposure to the crypto markets indirectly through a fee-based model with no trading or balance sheet risk (as no direct investment in any cryptocurrency was made).</p><p>Early-stage investments in such nascent companies make up just 6% of its entire portfolio.</p><p>Thus far, such investments have, on average, generated a mid-teens rate of returns even though such investments are inherently riskier.</p><h2>Warren Buffett and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSM\">TSMC</a></h2><p>It’s been a tepid period for the semiconductor industry as chip makers have downgraded their revenue forecasts in light of slowing demand.</p><p>The COVID-fuelled boom had initially led to a chronic undersupply situation as many chip makers ramped up production aggressively to tackle the shortage.</p><p>The pendulum has now swung to the other extreme.</p><p>Chip makers such as Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) are scaling back on their capital spending plans for 2023 while clearing excess inventory.</p><p>Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) has also reported waning demand for personal computers as it conducts layoffs to reduce staff costs.</p><p>Amid the gloom, one of the world’s best investors, Warren Buffett, has taken an opposing view.</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha, as he is sometimes called, has scooped up US$5 billion worth of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (NYSE: TSM), or TSMC for his conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.B).</p><p>Berkshire disclosed that it acquired around 60 million American Depository Receipts (ADRs) of TSMC for the quarter ended 30 September 2022.</p><p>TSMC is the world’s leading chip maker and counts technology giants such as Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) as its clients.</p><p>It also manufactures semiconductors for clients such as Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Qualcomm (NASDAQ: QCOM).</p><p>The nonagenarian investor has a history of shying away from the technology sector in his earlier years but has altered his stance recently by allocating an increasing proportion of Berkshire’s investments to the technology sector.</p><p>Whether Buffett’s bet on TSMC will work out or not remains to seen, but investors should remember that his investments are typically long-term and that he is giving a vote of confidence to semiconductors.</p><h2>Singapore bank mortgage rates</h2><p>As the US Federal Reserve raises its benchmark rates further, the local banks have also hiked their mortgage rates northward.</p><p>It’s the second time in as many months that home loan interest rates have increased.</p><p>All three banks last adjusted their home loan rates in October.</p><p>Back then, DBS Group (SGX: D05) had fired the first salvo by raising its four fixed-rate loan packages to 3.5%.</p><p>Not to be outdone, United Overseas Bank Ltd (SGX: U11), or UOB, raised its two and three-year fixed rate home loan packages to 3.75% and 3.85%, respectively.</p><p>OCBC Ltd (SGX: O39) followed suit by adjusting its two-year fixed rate package to 3.5%, too.</p><p>This round, the banks have bumped up their fixed rate loans to as high as 4.5%.</p><p>DBS’ four fixed-rate loan packages are all set at 4.25% while OCBC’s one and two-year fixed rate mortgage loans are priced at 4.3%.</p><p>UOB now has the highest rates of the trio, with its two-year package fixed at 4.5%.</p><p>With the latest increase, homeowners that need to refinance are left in a quandary.</p><p>They can choose a floating-rate loan such as the one DBS Group is offering. It is priced at 1% above the three-month compounded Singapore Overnight Rate Average (SORA) which is currently at 2.663%.</p><p>The borrowing rate will be lower, at 3.663, than its fixed rate loans of 4.5%, but there is a two-year lock-in period.</p><p>The problem is that any further increases in SORA will then bump up the floating up without the borrower being able to refinance.</p><p>And it looks increasingly like the US central bank is committing to further hikes to stub out high inflation.</p><p>Yet, if the same homeowner chooses a fixed rate package, he or she stands to pay substantially more than in interest payments compared to a year ago.</p><p>It’s not an easy choice, but perhaps these homeowners can park some of their spare cash in shares of DBS Group to somewhat offset the higher interest.</p><p>The lender’s shares are offering a trailing 12-month dividend yield of 4% right now.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1602567310727","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE

approximately eight months, during which Temasek reviewed the cryptocurrency exchange’s audited financial statements and spoke to numerous people familiar with FTX and its operations.Its US$275 million investment made up 0.09% of its total portfolio value of US$403 billion as of 31 March 2022.Temasek’s rationale for investing in FTX is based on its belief that cryptocurrency exchanges form a key part of the global financial system.Hence, its thesis involved gaining exposure to the crypto markets indirectly through a fee-based model with no trading or balance sheet risk (as no direct investment in any cryptocurrency was made).Early-stage investments in such nascent companies make up just 6% of its entire portfolio.Thus far, such investments have, on average, generated a mid-teens rate of returns even though such investments are inherently riskier.Warren Buffett and TSMCIt’s been a tepid period for the semiconductor industry as chip makers have downgraded their revenue forecasts in light of slowing demand.The COVID-fuelled boom had initially led to a chronic undersupply situation as many chip makers ramped up production aggressively to tackle the shortage.The pendulum has now swung to the other extreme.Chip makers such as Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) are scaling back on their capital spending plans for 2023 while clearing excess inventory.Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) has also reported waning demand for personal computers as it conducts layoffs to reduce staff costs.Amid the gloom, one of the world’s best investors, Warren Buffett, has taken an opposing view.The Oracle of Omaha, as he is sometimes called, has scooped up US$5 billion worth of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (NYSE: TSM), or TSMC for his conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.B).Berkshire disclosed that it acquired around 60 million American Depository Receipts (ADRs) of TSMC for the quarter ended 30 September 2022.TSMC is the world’s leading chip maker and counts technology giants such as Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) as its clients.It also manufactures semiconductors for clients such as Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Qualcomm (NASDAQ: QCOM).The nonagenarian investor has a history of shying away from the technology sector in his earlier years but has altered his stance recently by allocating an increasing proportion of Berkshire’s investments to the technology sector.Whether Buffett’s bet on TSMC will work out or not remains to seen, but investors should remember that his investments are typically long-term and that he is giving a vote of confidence to semiconductors.Singapore bank mortgage ratesAs the US Federal Reserve raises its benchmark rates further, the local banks have also hiked their mortgage rates northward.It’s the second time in as many months that home loan interest rates have increased.All three banks last adjusted their home loan rates in October.Back then, DBS Group (SGX: D05) had fired the first salvo by raising its four fixed-rate loan packages to 3.5%.Not to be outdone, United Overseas Bank Ltd (SGX: U11), or UOB, raised its two and three-year fixed rate home loan packages to 3.75% and 3.85%, respectively.OCBC Ltd (SGX: O39) followed suit by adjusting its two-year fixed rate package to 3.5%, too.This round, the banks have bumped up their fixed rate loans to as high as 4.5%.DBS’ four fixed-rate loan packages are all set at 4.25% while OCBC’s one and two-year fixed rate mortgage loans are priced at 4.3%.UOB now has the highest rates of the trio, with its two-year package fixed at 4.5%.With the latest increase, homeowners that need to refinance are left in a quandary.They can choose a floating-rate loan such as the one DBS Group is offering. It is priced at 1% above the three-month compounded Singapore Overnight Rate Average (SORA) which is currently at 2.663%.The borrowing rate will be lower, at 3.663, than its fixed rate loans of 4.5%, but there is a two-year lock-in period.The problem is that any further increases in SORA will then bump up the floating up without the borrower being able to refinance.And it looks increasingly like the US central bank is committing to further hikes to stub out high inflation.Yet, if the same homeowner chooses a fixed rate package, he or she stands to pay substantially more than in interest payments compared to a year ago.It’s not an easy choice, but perhaps these homeowners can park some of their spare cash in shares of DBS Group to somewhat offset the higher interest.The lender’s shares are offering a trailing 12-month dividend yield of 4% right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":194,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9961060651,"gmtCreate":1668788488273,"gmtModify":1676538114382,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3569215424377171","authorIdStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/COIN\">$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$&nbsp;</a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/COIN\">$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$&nbsp;</a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>","text":"$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9961060651","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":216,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9961060160,"gmtCreate":1668788424951,"gmtModify":1676538114369,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3569215424377171","authorIdStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/COIN\">$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$&nbsp;</a> With the demise and mistrust created by&nbsp;ftx, the least resistance for this industry and this counter is more downside.","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/COIN\">$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$&nbsp;</a> With the demise and mistrust created by&nbsp;ftx, the least resistance for this industry and this counter is more downside.","text":"$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$ With the demise and mistrust created by ftx, the least resistance for this industry and this counter is more downside.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9961060160","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":413,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9969071885,"gmtCreate":1668306970548,"gmtModify":1676538039404,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3569215424377171","authorIdStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"The former CEO needs to serve jail time for fraudulent transactions he was withdrawing from clients tokens to fund his speculations.

If the SEC alleges that FTX broke securities laws, it could create liability for the entire industry. “That’s what can really shake the industry,” says Tyler Gellasch, a former SEC senior counsel.Representatives for the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission declined to comment.Even if FTX’s troubles seem remote, the damage is likely to keep affecting tokens, brokerages like Coinbase and Robinhood, and the many banks, lenders, and tech companies trying to build crypto businesses.“FTX and SBF were these megawatt stars in crypto and had garnered a lot of trust, not just among institutional investors but also among regulators,” says Morningstar’s Madeline Hume, referring to Bankman-Fried. “The risk of contagion has never been higher.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":323,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9987451381,"gmtCreate":1667970855644,"gmtModify":1676537992619,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3569215424377171","authorIdStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"When human capital becomes portfolios like&nbsp;being actively re-balanced or managed","listText":"When human capital becomes portfolios like&nbsp;being actively re-balanced or managed","text":"When human capital becomes portfolios like being actively re-balanced or managed","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9987451381","repostId":"2282910619","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9984311386,"gmtCreate":1667532784846,"gmtModify":1676537933335,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3569215424377171","authorIdStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Lehman 2.0?","listText":"Lehman 2.0?","text":"Lehman 2.0?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9984311386","repostId":"2280059850","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2280059850","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1667471853,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2280059850?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-03 18:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Credit Suisse Warns of Potential Profitability Drop","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2280059850","media":"Reuters","summary":"ZURICH, Nov 3 (Reuters) - Credit Suisse profitability could be hit by a drop in asset management fee","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>ZURICH, Nov 3 (Reuters) - Credit Suisse profitability could be hit by a drop in asset management fees in the fourth quarter, the Swiss bank said in a financial report late on Wednesday.</p><p>Lower asset values because of adverse market movements in client portfolios in the third quarter could lead to decreased fee revenues for the group, thereby leading to reduced profitability, the bank said.</p><p>Along with its restructuring plan, Credit Suisse last month revealed that social media rumours had led to client asset outflows in the first two weeks of October that substantially exceeded third-quarter rates.</p><p>The bank said these outflows had since reduced, but not yet reversed, contributing to the decrease in assets under management.</p><p>Credit Suisse had already warned of a likely net loss in the fourth quarter, partly owing to costs associated with its planned strategic transformation including withdrawals from non-core businesses.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The Singapore-based e-commerce, fintech, and gaming giant lost its luster as its top line growth cooled off and its losses widened. Rising interest rates exacerbated the pain by broadly crushing higher-growth tech stocks.</p><p>But even after that painful drawdown, Sea&#39;s stock still remains about 240% above its IPO price of $15 from five years ago. Let&#39;s review the three reasons to buy Sea&#39;s stock -- along with three reasons to sell it -- to see where it might be headed.</p><h2>First reason to buy: Shopee&#39;s growth potential</h2><p>Sea generated 59% of its revenues from Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, in its latest quarter. Shopee&#39;s revenue surged 160% in 2020, driven by a spike in online purchases during the pandemic, and grew 136% in 2021. In 2022, it revenue rose 64% year over year in the first quarter and 51% in the second quarter. Its growth is gradually cooling off, but it&#39;s still growing a lot faster than most other major e-commerce companies.</p><p>Shopee scaled back its overseas expansion over the past year, but its core Southeast Asian market still has plenty of room to grow. IDC Financial Insights expects the region&#39;s number of e-commerce users to rise from 222 million in 2020 to 411 million in 2025. Bain &amp; Company believes the GMV (gross merchandise volume, or the value of all goods sold) across the Southeast Asian e-commerce market will nearly double from $120 billion in 2021 to $234 billion in 2025. Those rosy forecasts suggest Shopee can easily generate high double-digit sales growth for the foreseeable future.</p><h2>Second reason to buy: SeaMoney&#39;s growth potential</h2><p>Sea generated another 9% of its revenue from its digital financial services (DFS) segment, which houses its SeaMoney digital wallet and other fintech services, in its latest quarter. It started disclosing the segment&#39;s revenues separately in 2021, when its revenue skyrocketed 711%.</p><p>Its DFS revenue rose 360% year over year in the first quarter of 2022, then grew another 214% in the second quarter. SeaMoney ended the second quarter with 52.7 million quarterly active users across all its services, which represented 53% growth from the previous year. That growth makes it a promising play on the expansion of Southeast Asia&#39;s digital wallet market, which IDC believes will grow from 154 million users in 2020 to 404 million users by 2025.</p><h2>Third reason to buy: Its valuation</h2><p>Sea&#39;s total revenue rose 101% in 2020 and 128% in 2021, and analysts expect its top line to grow at a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of 24% from 2021 to 2024 -- which implies its annual revenue will nearly double.</p><p>Yet Sea&#39;s stock still trades at less than two times this year&#39;s sales, which makes it more comparable to a struggling brick-and-mortar retailer like <b>GameStop</b> instead of a high-growth e-commerce company. Therefore, it could easily double or triple from these levels if it finally impresses the market again.</p><h2>First reason to sell: Garena&#39;s slowdown</h2><p>Sea generated 31% of its revenue from the digital entertainment division, which houses its gaming unit Garena, in its latest quarter. Garena generates most of its growth from its battle royale game <i>Free Fire</i>, which was launched back in 2017.</p><p>Garena&#39;s bookings soared 80% in 2020 as more people played <i>Free Fire </i>throughout the pandemic, then increased 44% in 2021. But its bookings declined sharply in the first half of 2022 as those pandemic-induced headwinds faded away. The game was also abruptly banned in India, one of its fastest-growing markets, earlier this year.</p><h2>Second reason to sell: Its ongoing losses</h2><p>Garena&#39;s slowdown is troubling because it&#39;s the only one of Sea&#39;s three main businesses units that generates a positive adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization). Shopee is still racking up losses as it tries to attract shoppers with discounts and shipping subsidies, and it&#39;s also operating SeaMoney at a loss to lock in more users.</p><p>The bulls initially believed Sea could offset those losses with Garena&#39;s profits, but that thesis is quickly collapsing as <i>Free Fire&#39;s</i> growth stalls out. That&#39;s why analysts expect Sea to remain unprofitable for the foreseeable future.</p><h2>Third reason to sell: Rising interest rates</h2><p>Sea&#39;s lack of profits will make it an unappealing investment as long as interest rates continue to rise. It was still sitting on $6.5 billion in cash and equivalents at the end of the second quarter, thanks to a big debt and stock sale last year, but it could struggle to raise more funds at favorable rates in this challenging market.</p><h2>Do its strengths outweigh its weaknesses?</h2><p>I own some shares of Sea, and I believe its low price-to-sales ratio could limit its downside potential. But I also don&#39;t think it will stage a meaningful recovery until it revives Garena and narrows its losses. Sea might still generate multibagger gains over the long term as the Southeast Asian e-commerce and fintech markets expand, but its stock will remain out of favor until interest rates stabilize and the bulls rush back toward the riskier growth plays.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Reasons to Buy Sea Limited Stock, and 3 Reasons to Sell</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\">\n3 Reasons to Buy Sea Limited Stock, and 3 Reasons to Sell\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-18 14:49 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/17/3-reasons-to-buy-sea-limited-stock-3-sell/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Sea Limited's stock plummeted nearly 80% this year and surrendered all of its gains from the past two and half a years.

Sea might still generate multibagger gains over the long term as the Southeast Asian e-commerce and fintech markets expand, but its stock will remain out of favor until interest rates stabilize and the bulls rush back toward the riskier growth plays.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":38,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9921645955,"gmtCreate":1671061025578,"gmtModify":1676538482416,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3569215424377171","idStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"No direct route for Santa Claus to the GO line to deliver his Xmas rally..hohoho","listText":"No direct route for Santa Claus to the GO line to deliver his Xmas rally..hohoho","text":"No direct route for Santa Claus to the GO line to deliver his Xmas rally..hohoho","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9921645955","repostId":"2291844850","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":803,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9982807568,"gmtCreate":1667138496555,"gmtModify":1676537865851,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3569215424377171","idStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"High inflation, high energy cost&nbsp;causing changes in spending pattern and everyone is going to prioritize their needs.

You’ll be amazed, and even shocked, to find out just how many billions of dollars these industry giants have lost in a matter of weeks, days, or even hours.For years, the stories of electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), social media and metaverse business Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META), and e-commerce giant Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) were tales of unencumbered growth. Yet, as they say on Wall Street, trees don’t just grow straight to the heavens. Sooner or later, even the biggest companies must encounter setbacks – and when they’re gigantic corporations, the losses can be absolutely staggering.In other words: The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Granted, we might not feel too sorry for multi-billionaires like Tesla CEO Elon Musk, Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and Amazon Executive Chairman Jeff Bezos when they sustain financial losses. After all, they still have massive hoards of money and property; they’ll be just fine, no doubt, even after losing billions of dollars.Meta Platforms Gets Kicked Out of the Trillion-Dollar ClubA while back, you might have read news reports about the “trillion-dollar club,” which companies could join if their market caps reached a trillion dollars. It’s mind-blowing to think that this club even exists, but high dollar inflation and corporate growth mean that a trillion-dollar valuation is within reach in the 2020s.However, getting into the trillion-dollar club is one thing; staying in the club is another matter entirely. Reportedly, the tech-stock rout was so bad that Meta Platforms (a.k.a. Facebook) – which was among the five most valuable businesses in the U.S. and had a trillion-dollar market cap last year – is now worth around $270 billion.That’s a stunning $730 billion loss in just a year’s time, and META stock is currently trading at its lowest price since early 2016. Is it possible that Zuckerberg’s big bet on the metaverse isn’t working out as planned?Zuckerberg isn’t the only tech mogul to see billions wiped out. Bezos’ net worth plunged from its $214 billion peak in July 2021 to around $111 billion. This represents a mind-numbing $103 billion capital loss.Meanwhile, Musk lost over $100 billion during the past 12 months – but again, no one’s throwing any pity parties as Musk is still the world’s richest person. Thus, between Zuckerberg, Bezos, and Musk, we can account for a net-worth loss totaling $941 billion.These losses have also been reflected in the share prices of TSLA, AMZN, and META stock. So, before you send flowers and a get-well card to these billionaire owners, be sure to check your investment portfolio, as you might be in dire financial straits yourself.What Do Analysts Think about META, AMZN, and TSLA Stocks?Turning to Wall Street, analysts still have positive views on META, AMZN, and TSLA stocks. As per the picture below, you can see that Amazon has a Strong Buy consensus rating, whereas the other two have a Moderate Buy rating. Their price targets are as follows:META – $146.48 (45.84% upside)AMZN – $165.45 (67.12% upside)TSLA – $292.89 (33.3% upside)","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":154,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9981085028,"gmtCreate":1666346357364,"gmtModify":1676537744759,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3569215424377171","idStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"More wild moves with options expiration today...","listText":"More wild moves with options expiration today...","text":"More wild moves with options expiration today...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9981085028","repostId":"1151845961","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1151845961","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1666340267,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1151845961?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-21 16:17","market":"other","language":"en","title":"Option Movers｜Tesla’s Trading Volume Doubled From the Day Before; Almost 70% Call Options Focused On This Database Stock","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1151845961","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stocks closed lower on Thursday as data on the labor market and comments from a U.S. Federal Re","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>U.S. stocks closed lower on Thursday as data on the labor market and comments from a U.S. Federal Reserve official reinforced expectations the central bank will be aggressive in hiking interest rates outweighed a flurry of solid corporate earnings.</p><p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 90.22 points, or 0.3%, to 30,333.59, the S&amp;P 500 lost 29.38 points, or 0.80%, to 3,665.78 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 65.66 points, or 0.61%, to 10,614.84.</p><h2>Options Broad View</h2><p>A total volume of 37,082,060 contracts were traded on Thursday, up 1.18% from the previous day.

has been affected by the implosion of popular cryptocurrency trading firm FTX.</p><p>FTX was one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges before it sought bankruptcy protection last week.</p><p>Its CEO and founder, Sam-Bankman Fried, has also resigned.</p><p>Temasek has released a statement confirming that it will write down its entire US$275 million investment in FTX, regardless of the outcome of the latter’s bankruptcy filing.</p><p>The US$275 million investment was made in two separate tranches between October 2021 to January 2022 for a 2.5% stake in the cryptocurrency outfit.</p><p>It also clarified that it did not invest directly in cryptocurrencies.</p><p>The due diligence process for FTX was extensive and lasted approximately eight months, during which Temasek reviewed the cryptocurrency exchange’s audited financial statements and spoke to numerous people familiar with FTX and its operations.</p><p>Its US$275 million investment made up 0.09% of its total portfolio value of US$403 billion as of 31 March 2022.</p><p>Temasek’s rationale for investing in FTX is based on its belief that cryptocurrency exchanges form a key part of the global financial system.</p><p>Hence, its thesis involved gaining exposure to the crypto markets indirectly through a fee-based model with no trading or balance sheet risk (as no direct investment in any cryptocurrency was made).</p><p>Early-stage investments in such nascent companies make up just 6% of its entire portfolio.</p><p>Thus far, such investments have, on average, generated a mid-teens rate of returns even though such investments are inherently riskier.</p><h2>Warren Buffett and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSM\">TSMC</a></h2><p>It’s been a tepid period for the semiconductor industry as chip makers have downgraded their revenue forecasts in light of slowing demand.</p><p>The COVID-fuelled boom had initially led to a chronic undersupply situation as many chip makers ramped up

to the latest edition of top stock market highlights.Temasek HoldingsInvestment firm Temasek Holdings has been affected by the implosion of popular cryptocurrency trading firm FTX.FTX was one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges before it sought bankruptcy protection last week.Its CEO and founder, Sam-Bankman Fried, has also resigned.Temasek has released a statement confirming that it will write down its entire US$275 million investment in FTX, regardless of the outcome of the latter’s bankruptcy filing.The US$275 million investment was made in two separate tranches between October 2021 to January 2022 for a 2.5% stake in the cryptocurrency outfit.It also clarified that it did not invest directly in cryptocurrencies.The due diligence process for FTX was extensive and lasted approximately eight months, during which Temasek reviewed the cryptocurrency exchange’s audited financial statements and spoke to numerous people familiar with FTX and its operations.Its US$275 million investment made up 0.09% of its total portfolio value of US$403 billion as of 31 March 2022.Temasek’s rationale for investing in FTX is based on its belief that cryptocurrency exchanges form a key part of the global financial system.Hence, its thesis involved gaining exposure to the crypto markets indirectly through a fee-based model with no trading or balance sheet risk (as no direct investment in any cryptocurrency was made).Early-stage investments in such nascent companies make up just 6% of its entire portfolio.Thus far, such investments have, on average, generated a mid-teens rate of returns even though such investments are inherently riskier.Warren Buffett and TSMCIt’s been a tepid period for the semiconductor industry as chip makers have downgraded their revenue forecasts in light of slowing demand.The COVID-fuelled boom had initially led to a chronic undersupply situation as many chip makers ramped up production aggressively to tackle the shortage.The pendulum has now swung to the other extreme.Chip makers such as Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) are scaling back on their capital spending plans for 2023 while clearing excess inventory.Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) has also reported waning demand for personal computers as it conducts layoffs to reduce staff costs.Amid the gloom, one of the world’s best investors, Warren Buffett, has taken an opposing view.The Oracle of Omaha, as he is sometimes called, has scooped up US$5 billion worth of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (NYSE: TSM), or TSMC for his conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.B).Berkshire disclosed that it acquired around 60 million American Depository Receipts (ADRs) of TSMC for the quarter ended 30 September 2022.TSMC is the world’s leading chip maker and counts technology giants such as Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) as its clients.It also manufactures semiconductors for clients such as Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Qualcomm (NASDAQ: QCOM).The nonagenarian investor has a history of shying away from the technology sector in his earlier years but has altered his stance recently by allocating an increasing proportion of Berkshire’s investments to the technology sector.Whether Buffett’s bet on TSMC will work out or not remains to seen, but investors should remember that his investments are typically long-term and that he is giving a vote of confidence to semiconductors.Singapore bank mortgage ratesAs the US Federal Reserve raises its benchmark rates further, the local banks have also hiked their mortgage rates northward.It’s the second time in as many months that home loan interest rates have increased.All three banks last adjusted their home loan rates in October.Back then, DBS Group (SGX: D05) had fired the first salvo by raising its four fixed-rate loan packages to 3.5%.Not to be outdone, United Overseas Bank Ltd (SGX: U11), or UOB, raised its two and three-year fixed rate home loan packages to 3.75% and 3.85%, respectively.OCBC Ltd (SGX: O39) followed suit by adjusting its two-year fixed rate package to 3.5%, too.This round, the banks have bumped up their fixed rate loans to as high as 4.5%.DBS’ four fixed-rate loan packages are all set at 4.25% while OCBC’s one and two-year fixed rate mortgage loans are priced at 4.3%.UOB now has the highest rates of the trio, with its two-year package fixed at 4.5%.With the latest increase, homeowners that need to refinance are left in a quandary.They can choose a floating-rate loan such as the one DBS Group is offering. It is priced at 1% above the three-month compounded Singapore Overnight Rate Average (SORA) which is currently at 2.663%.The borrowing rate will be lower, at 3.663, than its fixed rate loans of 4.5%, but there is a two-year lock-in period.The problem is that any further increases in SORA will then bump up the floating up without the borrower being able to refinance.And it looks increasingly like the US central bank is committing to further hikes to stub out high inflation.Yet, if the same homeowner chooses a fixed rate package, he or she stands to pay substantially more than in interest payments compared to a year ago.It’s not an easy choice, but perhaps these homeowners can park some of their spare cash in shares of DBS Group to somewhat offset the higher interest.The lender’s shares are offering a trailing 12-month dividend yield of 4% right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":194,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9949886248,"gmtCreate":1678490427985,"gmtModify":1678490431983,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3569215424377171","idStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SIVB\">$SVB Financial Group(SIVB)$ &nbsp;</a>is this the catalyst that start a bigger financial crisis?

What Comes Next","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1168786172","media":"Barron's","summary":"The biggest scandal in crypto involves celebrities, sports stars, Caribbean intrigue, and a corporat","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The biggest scandal in crypto involves celebrities, sports stars, Caribbean intrigue, and a corporate mystery: How, exactly, did a company valued at $32 billion go bankrupt almost overnight? In hindsight, Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX empire displayed legions of red flags. But its fall has been striking, even to veterans of the largest blowups in corporate history.</p><p>“Never in my career have I seen such a complete failure of corporate controls,” said John J. Ray, the new CEO of FTX, in a bankruptcy court filing. That’s quite a comment coming from the lawyer who cleaned up Enron’s bankruptcy two decades ago.</p><p>FTX has spilled blood in the streets. But far more is likely to come, and this is no time to play bargain hunter. Yes, Bitcoin and other tokens have lost more than 20%. And stocks like Coinbase Global (ticker: COIN), Silvergate Capital (SI), and Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) have been slammed. More than $200 billion has been wiped off token market value since FTX started cracking in early November.</p><p>But nothing about this crisis indicates that it will end soon. Damage to the crypto ecosystem’s credibility is unquantifiable. And more fallout is likely as other trading platforms reveal exposures to FTX and related entities, potentially pushing down token prices, crypto-related stocks, and companies even more.</p><p>Government investigations of FTX are just starting, and lawsuits are piling up. One is already targeting celebrities like Tom Brady, Larry David, and Stephen Curry for promoting FTX on its website and in a Super Bowl ad.</p><p>“We knew crypto had a highly unstable value, and now we know the platforms for trading and storing them are unreliable,” says Cornell University economist Eswar Prasad, a leading digital-asset expert. “Even the basic requirement that assets can be kept securely is not met by crypto.”</p><p>In Washington, calls for comprehensive crypto rules are intensifying, including a plea this past week from Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen; she said it’s “vital” to address the industry’s risks, protect consumers, and promote financial stability. “The dominoes aren’t done falling,” says Matt Hougan, chief investment officer of Bitwise Asset Management, a crypto index fund provider. “Contagion risk will keep people out of the market, and I don’t know what other shoe will drop.”</p><p>One might draw two conclusions. The first is that crypto has sealed its own coffin as an asset class—proving beyond a reasonable doubt that it’s the “mother of all scams,” in the words of New York University economist Nouriel Roubini.</p><p>The other possible conclusion is that crypto is simply proving itself irrelevant. A decade into its development, the technology has yet to make serious inroads into mainstream financial markets or commerce. The latest fiasco hasn’t dented broader financial markets. The S&amp;P 500 index is up 3.7% since FTX fell apart. Spreads in yields between corporate bonds and Treasuries—another sign of stress—haven’t blown out like they did during the 2008-09 financial crisis.</p><p>Hougan, for one, calls both conclusions silly. “One exchange engaging in bad activity doesn’t mean the end of crypto, blockchain technologies, or programmable money,” he says. Bitwise hasn’t seen meaningful outflows from its institutional clients, he adds, partly because they still believe in the technology and are willing to wait for this crisis to blow over.</p><p>Others in the industry say there will be a silver lining: Regulation will finally kick in, preventing other blowups. “One of the bad outcomes that could come here is conflating clear examples of human misconduct with the technology,” says Dante Disparte, chief strategy officer of Circle, the company backing the $44 billionUSDC stablecoin. “It’s precisely because of something like this that we need to regulate the industry.”</p><p>In short, crypto probably won’t die, but it won’t be the same in a post-FTX world. More than ever, it needs government supervision, audited financial statements, consumer protections, and transparency to survive and advance. Turning crypto into a regulated medium of exchange goes against the original libertarian ethos of Bitcoin—designed to avoid the strictures of government and corporate control. The industry may have little choice, however, if it wants to survive.</p><h2>The Collapse of a $32 Billion Empire and Its Aftermath</h2><p>This past week brought a flurry of revelations about potential malfeasance at Bahamas-based FTX. Corporate funds were used to buy homes in the Bahamas and other personal items for employees, Ray’s filing said, with no documentation of the transactions as loans. Expenses were filed in online chats, approved with personalized emojis.</p><p>FTX didn’t keep appropriate books and records, Ray noted, and its unacceptable practices included the use of software “to conceal the misuse of customer funds.”</p><p>How much money has been lost isn’t known. Ray noted an unauthorized transfer of $372 million of crypto and said someone had minted $300 million in unapproved tokens, diluting their value. The balance sheet has a hole of $8 billion to $10 billion, including $1 billion to $2 billion in customer assets that have gone missing, according to Reuters and other media reports. Bankman-Fried received a $1 billion loan from Alameda Research, his trading company, Ray said.</p><p>More than a million customers, creditors, and investors in FTX and related entities are now trying to recoup funds. But even the jurisdiction of FTX’s remaining assets is in dispute. The Bahamas Securities Commission said on Thursday that it had directed the transfer of all FTX Digital Markets’ assets to a wallet it controls “for safekeeping,” a sign that jurisdictional battles over the bankruptcy could delay customer recoveries even further.</p><p>Neither an FTX representative nor Bankman-Fried responded to requests for comment. Bankman-Fried has continued posting on Twitter, apologizing, explaining, and making sometimes bizarre comments. He “continues to make erratic and misleading public statements,” Ray said, citing a Twitter chat with a reporter where Bankman-Fried said, “F____ regulators they make everything worse.”</p><p>Other crypto players are struggling to contain the fallout. High-yield lender BlockFi, itself the recipient of a bailout by Bankman-Fried, has frozen customer deposits. Genesis Global Capital, a large lender, stopped withdrawals, leading Gemini Trust, an exchange founded by the Winklevoss twins, with ties to Genesis, to do the same with its yield-paying accounts.</p><p>“Genesis has been exploring all possible options and has been having positive conversations with potential investors,” a spokesperson said in a statement to<i>Barron’s</i>.</p><p>Another casualty has been Grayscale Bitcoin Trust, the largest publicly traded Bitcoin fund with $10.5 billion worth of the token. The trust’s publicly traded security, GBTC, fell to a 40% discount to its underlying Bitcoin assets this past week. ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood saw that as a bargain, buying more than 300,000 shares of GBTC for her ARK Next Generation Internet exchange-traded fund (ARKW). But GBTC’s discount reflects skepticism that Bitcoin isn’t done falling, and the discount could widen further due to forced-selling as more crypto entities come under pressure.</p><p>Other exchanges are racing to reassure customers. Coinbase says it doesn’t take actions with customer assets without their permission. Crypto.com says it fully backs customer assets with reserves. Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao has tried to reassure customers of his exchange, the world’s largest by volume, while calling for other exchanges to publish “proof of reserves.”</p><p>For now, the token market appears to be taking all of this in stride. Bitcoin’s price has dropped about 20%, and Ether’s price has fallen 24%. That’s not remarkable in the volatile token market, says The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania’s professor Kevin Werbach, who called for more crypto regulations in a Senate hearing last February, alongside Bankman-Fried. “If I told you to look at the trading chart of most cryptocurrencies and asked you to identify the period right after the most spectacular failure in the history of the space, you’d probably not pick this out,” Werbach says.</p><h2>Crypto Comes Crawling to D.C.</h2><p>As bulls see it, FTX’s failure will prompt Washington to pass comprehensive rules. Indeed, the best outcome may be crypto versions of Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank—the sweeping rule changes for Wall Street that came after Enron’s collapse in 2002 and the 2008-09 financial crisis. Those rules included criminal liability for executives intentionally misstating accounting, new capital buffer requirements for banks, and far more consumer protections.</p><p>U.S. policy makers are now redoubling efforts in crypto. In December, a House panel plans to hold a hearing on FTX. Next year, Congress is likely to consider bills that would require exchanges and brokerages to register with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and/or the Securities and Exchange Commission. Regulators will also be under pressure to ensure that the FTX model of co-mingling customer assets with proprietary trading entities never happens again. That separation of assets is now a bedrock of equity broker/dealers and exchanges, but it’s often absent in crypto.</p><p>Without guardrails, deep-pocketed investors like family offices and sovereign-wealth funds will stay away, says Monsur Hussain, global head of research for financial institutions at Fitch Ratings. “Some funds and family offices have liquidated at least part of their holdings until they see the dust settle,” he says.</p><p>The White House also wants rules for stablecoins, which are used extensively for crypto banking and trading. Circle and other stablecoin companies have lobbied hard for rules. But the market itself has been shrinking, falling by $25 billion since peaking last May at $186 billion. “It would be difficult here to imagine a sustained recovery in crypto prices without the shrinkage of the stablecoin universe stopping,” wrote analysts at J.P. Morgan in a note.</p><p>If there are winners in the fiasco, it may be companies that are already extensively regulated. Andrei Kazantsev, global head of crypto trading for Goldman Sachs, said at a conference that he’d seen a “flight to quality” from institutions seeking safe counterparties, instead of using unregulated exchanges and trading platforms.</p><p>Yet Coinbase, a beneficiary of that flight to safety, faces new headwinds.Bank of America downgraded the stock to Neutral on Friday, citing “diminished confidence in the crypto ecosystem,” especially among the exchange’s core retail customer base. BofA also sees revenue risk to Coinbase if there’s “sustained further deterioration” in crypto asset prices, such as Bitcoin going to $10,000 from its recent $16,600.</p><p>“How far does this go? As much I keep hoping things will get better, things keep getting worse,” says D.A.

In hindsight, Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX empire displayed legions of red flags. But its fall has been striking, even to veterans of the largest blowups in corporate history.“Never in my career have I seen such a complete failure of corporate controls,” said John J. Ray, the new CEO of FTX, in a bankruptcy court filing. That’s quite a comment coming from the lawyer who cleaned up Enron’s bankruptcy two decades ago.FTX has spilled blood in the streets. But far more is likely to come, and this is no time to play bargain hunter. Yes, Bitcoin and other tokens have lost more than 20%. And stocks like Coinbase Global (ticker: COIN), Silvergate Capital (SI), and Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) have been slammed. More than $200 billion has been wiped off token market value since FTX started cracking in early November.But nothing about this crisis indicates that it will end soon. Damage to the crypto ecosystem’s credibility is unquantifiable. And more fallout is likely as other trading platforms reveal exposures to FTX and related entities, potentially pushing down token prices, crypto-related stocks, and companies even more.Government investigations of FTX are just starting, and lawsuits are piling up. One is already targeting celebrities like Tom Brady, Larry David, and Stephen Curry for promoting FTX on its website and in a Super Bowl ad.“We knew crypto had a highly unstable value, and now we know the platforms for trading and storing them are unreliable,” says Cornell University economist Eswar Prasad, a leading digital-asset expert. “Even the basic requirement that assets can be kept securely is not met by crypto.”In Washington, calls for comprehensive crypto rules are intensifying, including a plea this past week from Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen; she said it’s “vital” to address the industry’s risks, protect consumers, and promote financial stability. “The dominoes aren’t done falling,” says Matt Hougan, chief investment officer of Bitwise Asset Management, a crypto index fund provider. “Contagion risk will keep people out of the market, and I don’t know what other shoe will drop.”One might draw two conclusions. The first is that crypto has sealed its own coffin as an asset class—proving beyond a reasonable doubt that it’s the “mother of all scams,” in the words of New York University economist Nouriel Roubini.The other possible conclusion is that crypto is simply proving itself irrelevant. A decade into its development, the technology has yet to make serious inroads into mainstream financial markets or commerce. The latest fiasco hasn’t dented broader financial markets. The S&P 500 index is up 3.7% since FTX fell apart. Spreads in yields between corporate bonds and Treasuries—another sign of stress—haven’t blown out like they did during the 2008-09 financial crisis.Hougan, for one, calls both conclusions silly. “One exchange engaging in bad activity doesn’t mean the end of crypto, blockchain technologies, or programmable money,” he says. Bitwise hasn’t seen meaningful outflows from its institutional clients, he adds, partly because they still believe in the technology and are willing to wait for this crisis to blow over.Others in the industry say there will be a silver lining: Regulation will finally kick in, preventing other blowups. “One of the bad outcomes that could come here is conflating clear examples of human misconduct with the technology,” says Dante Disparte, chief strategy officer of Circle, the company backing the $44 billionUSDC stablecoin. “It’s precisely because of something like this that we need to regulate the industry.”In short, crypto probably won’t die, but it won’t be the same in a post-FTX world. More than ever, it needs government supervision, audited financial statements, consumer protections, and transparency to survive and advance. Turning crypto into a regulated medium of exchange goes against the original libertarian ethos of Bitcoin—designed to avoid the strictures of government and corporate control. The industry may have little choice, however, if it wants to survive.The Collapse of a $32 Billion Empire and Its AftermathThis past week brought a flurry of revelations about potential malfeasance at Bahamas-based FTX. Corporate funds were used to buy homes in the Bahamas and other personal items for employees, Ray’s filing said, with no documentation of the transactions as loans. Expenses were filed in online chats, approved with personalized emojis.FTX didn’t keep appropriate books and records, Ray noted, and its unacceptable practices included the use of software “to conceal the misuse of customer funds.”How much money has been lost isn’t known. Ray noted an unauthorized transfer of $372 million of crypto and said someone had minted $300 million in unapproved tokens, diluting their value. The balance sheet has a hole of $8 billion to $10 billion, including $1 billion to $2 billion in customer assets that have gone missing, according to Reuters and other media reports. Bankman-Fried received a $1 billion loan from Alameda Research, his trading company, Ray said.More than a million customers, creditors, and investors in FTX and related entities are now trying to recoup funds. But even the jurisdiction of FTX’s remaining assets is in dispute. The Bahamas Securities Commission said on Thursday that it had directed the transfer of all FTX Digital Markets’ assets to a wallet it controls “for safekeeping,” a sign that jurisdictional battles over the bankruptcy could delay customer recoveries even further.Neither an FTX representative nor Bankman-Fried responded to requests for comment. Bankman-Fried has continued posting on Twitter, apologizing, explaining, and making sometimes bizarre comments. He “continues to make erratic and misleading public statements,” Ray said, citing a Twitter chat with a reporter where Bankman-Fried said, “F____ regulators they make everything worse.”Other crypto players are struggling to contain the fallout. High-yield lender BlockFi, itself the recipient of a bailout by Bankman-Fried, has frozen customer deposits. Genesis Global Capital, a large lender, stopped withdrawals, leading Gemini Trust, an exchange founded by the Winklevoss twins, with ties to Genesis, to do the same with its yield-paying accounts.“Genesis has been exploring all possible options and has been having positive conversations with potential investors,” a spokesperson said in a statement toBarron’s.Another casualty has been Grayscale Bitcoin Trust, the largest publicly traded Bitcoin fund with $10.5 billion worth of the token. The trust’s publicly traded security, GBTC, fell to a 40% discount to its underlying Bitcoin assets this past week. ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood saw that as a bargain, buying more than 300,000 shares of GBTC for her ARK Next Generation Internet exchange-traded fund (ARKW). But GBTC’s discount reflects skepticism that Bitcoin isn’t done falling, and the discount could widen further due to forced-selling as more crypto entities come under pressure.Other exchanges are racing to reassure customers. Coinbase says it doesn’t take actions with customer assets without their permission. Crypto.com says it fully backs customer assets with reserves. Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao has tried to reassure customers of his exchange, the world’s largest by volume, while calling for other exchanges to publish “proof of reserves.”For now, the token market appears to be taking all of this in stride. Bitcoin’s price has dropped about 20%, and Ether’s price has fallen 24%. That’s not remarkable in the volatile token market, says The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania’s professor Kevin Werbach, who called for more crypto regulations in a Senate hearing last February, alongside Bankman-Fried. “If I told you to look at the trading chart of most cryptocurrencies and asked you to identify the period right after the most spectacular failure in the history of the space, you’d probably not pick this out,” Werbach says.Crypto Comes Crawling to D.C.As bulls see it, FTX’s failure will prompt Washington to pass comprehensive rules. Indeed, the best outcome may be crypto versions of Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank—the sweeping rule changes for Wall Street that came after Enron’s collapse in 2002 and the 2008-09 financial crisis. Those rules included criminal liability for executives intentionally misstating accounting, new capital buffer requirements for banks, and far more consumer protections.U.S. policy makers are now redoubling efforts in crypto. In December, a House panel plans to hold a hearing on FTX. Next year, Congress is likely to consider bills that would require exchanges and brokerages to register with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and/or the Securities and Exchange Commission. Regulators will also be under pressure to ensure that the FTX model of co-mingling customer assets with proprietary trading entities never happens again. That separation of assets is now a bedrock of equity broker/dealers and exchanges, but it’s often absent in crypto.Without guardrails, deep-pocketed investors like family offices and sovereign-wealth funds will stay away, says Monsur Hussain, global head of research for financial institutions at Fitch Ratings. “Some funds and family offices have liquidated at least part of their holdings until they see the dust settle,” he says.The White House also wants rules for stablecoins, which are used extensively for crypto banking and trading. Circle and other stablecoin companies have lobbied hard for rules. But the market itself has been shrinking, falling by $25 billion since peaking last May at $186 billion. “It would be difficult here to imagine a sustained recovery in crypto prices without the shrinkage of the stablecoin universe stopping,” wrote analysts at J.P. Morgan in a note.If there are winners in the fiasco, it may be companies that are already extensively regulated. Andrei Kazantsev, global head of crypto trading for Goldman Sachs, said at a conference that he’d seen a “flight to quality” from institutions seeking safe counterparties, instead of using unregulated exchanges and trading platforms.Yet Coinbase, a beneficiary of that flight to safety, faces new headwinds.Bank of America downgraded the stock to Neutral on Friday, citing “diminished confidence in the crypto ecosystem,” especially among the exchange’s core retail customer base. BofA also sees revenue risk to Coinbase if there’s “sustained further deterioration” in crypto asset prices, such as Bitcoin going to $10,000 from its recent $16,600.“How far does this go? As much I keep hoping things will get better, things keep getting worse,” says D.A. Davidson analyst Chris Brendler, who maintained a Buy on Coinbase.Some advisors say there’s no rush to get into crypto. “There’s nothing wrong with putting this in the ‘too hard’ pile,” says Meb Faber, CEO of Cambria Investment Management.FTX now appears likely to join Enron, Lehman, and Madoff in the pantheon of corporate failures. But the chaos it’s creating in crypto is no reason to buy the dip. “I don’t think this is a value opportunity,” says Deutsche Bank strategist Marion Laboure.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":322,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9989739912,"gmtCreate":1666078942336,"gmtModify":1676537702556,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3569215424377171","idStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"What is this post trying to infer?

Warren is gaining on you.With the sharp drop in shares of Tesla this year, the market value of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A, BRK.B) is approaching that of the leader in electric vehicles.Berkshire, led by longtime CEO Warren Buffett, is demonstrating its defensive attributes in a bear market with its class A share down about 7% this year to $419,000—against a nearly 25% decline in the S&P 500 index.Tesla stock is off 37.7% to $219.35 this year, reflecting some recent disappointment on vehicle deliveries and the sharp pullback in growth stocks. CEO Elon Musk’s pursuit of Twitter  hasn’t helped. Berkshire sits on what Buffett, 92, calls a Fort Knox balance sheet with over $100 billion in cash and equivalents, mostly U.S. Treasury bills. Investors will be eager to see how much of that cash Buffett deployed in the second quarter when Berkshire reports financial results in early November.Tesla closed at $219.35 on Monday, up 7.01% for the day, while Berkshire’s A shares closed at $419,100.8, up 1.54%.Berkshire now has a market value of about $615 billion, against Tesla at $687 billion. At the start of 2022, Tesla was valued at $1.1 trillion, $450 billion more than Berkshire.Berkshire already has blown past flagging Meta Platforms and Nvidia this year to rank sixth in the S&P 500 by market value. Berkshire is behind Apple , Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon.com, and Tesla. Shares of Meta and Nvidia, which outranked Berkshire in the S&P 500 at the beginning of 2022, are both down about 60% this year.If it can get past Tesla, Berkshire will be hard pressed to catch the No. 4 company, Amazon, which is valued at more than $1 trillion.Berkshire’s resilience this year shows the benefits of Buffett’s methodical approach to building value over more than a half-century while providing sleep-at-night comfort to shareholders.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":31,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9917876914,"gmtCreate":1665489592039,"gmtModify":1676537615156,"author":{"id":"3569215424377171","authorId":"3569215424377171","name":"trendjourney","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/307dcb32979cd42e40f07b1cd59a6f97","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3569215424377171","idStr":"3569215424377171"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"When bond yield rises, it also means the bond price is falling...
