The Nasdaq Composite Index was down only 2% in the same period.China's move to limit iPhone use comes at a time of great economic uncertainty in the country. Manufacturing activity has contracted, exports have declined and recent data showed an unusual drop in consumer prices.The unifying constant in Apple's previous China-related challenges was a belief among analysts, political leaders, economists and others that the company could ultimately weather the storm because China needs Apple just as much as Apple needs China.The work of assembling iPhones and other Apple gadgets employs millions of people around the country, and company investors have long taken assurance that the most drastic risks would be unlikely. China's ban is yet another test of that assumption.Beijing's move also comes amid rising nationalism among Chinese consumers that is driving them toward domestic brands. Apple has dominated the premium smartphone market in China recently since China's Huawei had to pull back following Western sanctions on critical chip technology. But last week, Huawei made a surprising return to fast cellular wireless speeds using homegrown technology, and on Friday started selling two more high-end models that could potentially target the iPhone15 series, which is expected to be released next week.Close followers of Apple don't see the government restriction as indicative of an imminent consumer-wide ban on Apple products or a ban on Apple-related manufacturing activity, which would be cataclysmic events for the iPhone maker.\"This is a symptom of a bigger problem with the trade and ideological war going on between China and the U.S.,\" said Trip Miller, managing partner at Apple investor Gullane Capital Partners.Investors and analysts pointed to Tesla as a case study. In 2021, China restricted the use of Tesla vehicles by military staff and employees of certain state-owned companies. Following the restriction for government employees, Tesla's China business remained steady.Apple's decline in the market follows a year of blistering stock growth that made it the world's first corporation to close with a market value above $3 trillion. Its stock had jumped almost 50% this year before news of the China ban broke, even though the company's sales have declined for all of its first three fiscal quarters of the year.China is Apple's third-largest market, delivering 19% of the company's total 2022 revenue of $394 billion. The country has also served as its greatest engine of growth. In 2021, Apple's China business expanded nearly 70%, far faster than its two largest reported regions, the Americas and Europe.Apple hasn't commented on the ban, which was communicated to government staff in recent weeks by superiors in workplace chat groups or meetings. It has since been sent to a swath of employees at state-owned companies, including workers in the space and energy industries, who have been told not to bring their iPhones into work or use them for business purposes, according to people familiar with the matter. Chinese officials haven't made any public comments on the issue.Voices inside Apple have warned of the risks of dependency on China. As early as 2015, some operations executives suggested that the company relocate assembly of one product to Vietnam to begin a multiyear process of creating a new supply chain outside China, the Journal previously reported. Senior managers at the company rebuffed the idea, seeing it as too difficult an undertaking to seriously move manufacturing out of China.Since supply-chain disruptions during the pandemic, however, Apple has sought to diversify more manufacturing into nearby countries such as Vietnam and India, the Journal has reported.Late last year, after riots broke out in a massive iPhone production facility in Zhengzhou as the country imposed harsh Covid-19 restrictions, Apple issued a rare mid-quarter warning that shipments of its then-latest iPhone 14 Pro models would be affected.But Apple's roots in China -- laid down by Chief Executive Tim Cook himself after he joined the company in 1998 -- would take years to even begin to disentangle.Before the pandemic, Cook traveled to China regularly to meet with top officials. When he visited in March, he met Chinese Premier Li Qiang alongside a handful of other foreign business executives, and spoke with Commerce Minister Wang Wentao about stabilizing supply chains, according to a ministry statement.Apple has worked to appease the Chinese government on security. In 2018, the company began shifting the iCloud accounts of its China users to servers located in the country. It also stored the encryption key of those accounts in China, a step that alarmed security experts at the time.Apple is likely to try to communicate behind the scenes with the Chinese government to understand the government's concerns and see how those could be addressed, said Xiaomeng Lu, a director at risk consulting firm Eurasia Group focusing on geopolitics and technology.\"They are very good at this game and Tim Cook is very proactive on this type of thing,\" she said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":582,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":202099536445520,"gmtCreate":1690347304250,"gmtModify":1690347308024,"author":{"id":"3570608563368860","authorId":"3570608563368860","name":"Venture118f","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3887689271b688d92c9bf6299b2a2c56","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3570608563368860","authorIdStr":"3570608563368860"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ba Ba liao ....&nbsp;[Happy]&nbsp;","listText":"Ba Ba liao ....&nbsp;[Happy]&nbsp;","text":"Ba Ba liao ....

Avid Tesla followers may recall that Elon Musk&#39;s long-term vision has always been to create an affordable mass-market EV. In fact, I have discovered at least four quotes from Musk in the past where he stated just that;</p><ol><li><p>&#34;I think the most important thing is to make cars that people can <strong>afford</strong>&#34; - <em>Elon Musk (May 2013, Bloomberg).</em></p></li><li><p>&#34;We must at least aspire to produce cars that are more <strong>affordable</strong> than the Model 3 in order to achieve our mission.&#34; - <em>Elon Musk (Tesla&#39;s Q1 2017 earnings call).</em></p></li><li><p>&#34;Our long-term goal is to be able to create a <strong>$25,000 </strong>electric vehicle that is also fully autonomous.&#34; - <em>Elon Musk (Tesla Battery Day event, 2020).</em></p></li><li><p>Our aspiration is still to try to make the cars as affordable as possible, and to ultimately make<strong> Tesla as affordable as possible</strong>.&#34; - <em>Elon Musk (Tesla Q3 2020 earnings call).</em></p></li></ol><p>Therefore in 2023, when Elon Musk renewed his focus on cost-effective or &#34;affordable&#34; Tesla&#39;s it wasn&#39;t a surprise to me. In fact, this could also be perfect timing, as many analysts have forecast a &#34;recession&#34; and thus it would make sense to offer consumers the greatest value possible. In addition, as Tesla looks to have the largest manufacturing footprint of any pure EV maker (5 Gigafactories globally), then it could be assumed that Tesla could in fact offer a cheaper alternative, than its competitors due to economies of scale.</p><p>This strategy is also aligned with the key success strategy which helped Amazon dominate the e-commerce world. This was dubbed as &#34;Scale economics shared&#34;, in that it &#34;gives back&#34; savings made to its consumers by continually lowering prices. Of course, Tesla hasn&#39;t completely given up on profits (that would be crazy). The company aims to &#34;harvest significant profits&#34; in the future through the sales of its fully autonomous self-driving software.</p><h2>How far is Tesla from full self-driving?</h2><p>Critics will say Elon Musk has been promising full self-driving for many years, and I can&#39;t argue with that point. Back in 2015, Elon Musk promised full autonomy &#34;within two years&#34;, at an MIT Symposium. Then in 2019 at an Autonomy Day Event, Musk promised &#34;full autonomy with regulatory approval in 2020&#34;. However, I personally believe we are now very close. Over &#34;150 million miles&#34; have been driven in Full Self Driving beta mode and that number is &#34;growing exponentially&#34;, according to Musk in the Q1, 2023 earnings call. This number of miles is key, as anyone who understands AI models will tell you, the more training data, the greater accuracy can be achieved. If we compare this figure to the &#34;just&#34; 1 million self-driving miles reported by Google&#39;s Waymo and Cruise, as of early 2023, Tesla looks to be very far ahead. Even if we compare this to &#34;safety driver&#34; miles, reports indicate Waymo racked up &#34;just&#34; 20 million miles in total, in 2020, which means Tesla likely has 7.5 times the number of miles. This also isn&#39;t taking into account the 150 million miles Tesla has reported is just for its latest &#34;beta&#34; software, I believe.</p><p>Elon Musk also recently stated that to his &#34;best knowledge&#34; the &#34;current hardware&#34; can achieve full autonomy. Therefore, in theory, Tesla could do an over-the-air software update and turn almost every Tesla on the road (over 1 million vehicles) into a full self-driving vehicle. Of course, this would be done for a fee charged to those who choose to pay and this is where Tesla aims to capture back its margins.</p><p>The value of an autonomous vehicle should also be not understated, this isn&#39;t just about being able to take long road trips without the achy arms, the potential is huge. For example, a fully self-driving vehicle could effectively replace the passenger railroad industry (a $250 billion market globally) by offering more personal point-to-point service. In addition, a new &#34;third space&#34; will likely be created in which one could use a Tesla as a home office, entertainment center, etc.</p><p>A fully autonomous vehicle can also be used to generate funds, for the individual when they are not using it. For example, you could be in the office and your Tesla could be doing ride-hailing around a city or doing food deliveries. Therefore the platform could disrupt Uber (UBER) which is valued at $62 billion, at the time of writing.</p><p>At Tesla&#39;s AI day in 2020, the company revealed details of Dojo which it claimed to be the &#34;fastest&#34; AI training supercomputer in the world, which was so powerful it actually tripped the power grid in Palo Alto, California.</p><p>The Dojo platform has huge potential and could be utilized as a high-margin &#34;sellable service&#34; similar to AWS cloud. AWS is the profit engine of Amazon (AMZN), driving 188% of its operating income, despite generating just ~14.35% of its total revenue, as of Q4,22. I discussed details of this in my previous post where I made the case that Amazon should spin off AWS, its most lucrative business segment (in my opinion).</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e4301aed406832dfd03a7349ad24a77a\" alt=\"Tesla ExaPOD Dojo Supercomputer (Tesla AI Day 2022)\" title=\"Tesla ExaPOD Dojo Supercomputer (Tesla AI Day 2022)\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"572\"/><span>Tesla ExaPOD Dojo Supercomputer (Tesla AI Day 2022)</span></p><p>This Dojo platform and Tesla&#39;s developed custom chips (such as the D1) are also expected to be key components for &#34;Optimus&#34; Tesla&#39;s autonomous robot. An &#34;affordable&#34; robot in every home could become a reality and would be aligned extremely well with Tesla&#39;s current business model, technology, and strategy. The robotics industry is forecast to grow at a 14.3% compounded annual growth rate [CAGR] and reach a value of $30.8 billion by 2027 thus the potential is huge for Tesla.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16b2513d46f366821137cb9c9636647a\" alt=\"Tesla Robot Optimus (AI Day 22)\" title=\"Tesla Robot Optimus (AI Day 22)\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"427\"/><span>Tesla Robot Optimus (AI Day 22)</span></p><h2>Financials and Valuation</h2><p>Tesla reported $23.33 billion in revenue which missed analyst forecasts by $26 million, despite increasing by a solid 24% year over year. This growth rate has slowed down substantially from the 34% reported in Q4,22 and the 55.95% in Q3,22, which looks to have been driven by both the &#34;recessionary&#34; environment as well as increasing competition. The good news is a &#34;price cut&#34; by Tesla should help to solve both issues. It should also be noted that Tesla reported &#34;record&#34; production and delivery numbers for the first quarter of 2023. The company generated 422,875 deliveries, which was up from the 405,278 reported in Q4,22. However, its sequential delivery growth rate has declined substantially from 17.87% in Q4,22 to just 4.34% by Q1,23, due to the aforementioned reasons. A positive is Tesla&#39;s production numbers have recovered with a record 440,808 reported for the first quarter of 2023, as the company resolved the issues at its Shanghai Gigafactory.</p><p>In terms of the valuation for Tesla, I have updated my model since my last post with the latest financials for Q1,23. In addition, I have adjusted my revenue growth rate from 26% to 27% for &#34;next year&#34; on the back of the planned decrease in prices which I believe should help to spur demand. I have also increased my forecasted revenue growth rate from 31% to 32% in years 2 to 5, due to my expected rebound in the economy and consumer demand (post-2023), plus the price reductions. Keep in mind, this isn&#39;t taking into account the potential of Dojo and thus that would really add bonus optionality into the stock.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/24a6867fdea67873b01c770d7d395a41\" alt=\"Tesla stock valuation 1 (Created by author Deep Tech Insights)\" title=\"Tesla stock valuation 1 (Created by author Deep Tech Insights)\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"264\"/><span>Tesla stock valuation 1 (Created by author Deep Tech Insights)</span></p><p>I previously forecast a 20% operating margin over the next 10 years, which I believe is still easily achievable. However, to be conservative and with Musk&#39;s renewed focus on lower margins I have stretched this out to be achievable over 12 years. This is still fairly conservative and only represents a 4% increase from the 16% margin achieved in Q4,22 or a 2% increase from the 18% margin achieved with R&amp;D expenses capitalized (as I have done in my model). Investors should be aware, that margins are likely to continue to dip as prices are slashed before we will see a reversion.</p><p>Tesla reported just a 12% operating margin in 2021 and 16.81% in 2022 and thus even with price cuts its margins are still solid at 11.42% reported for Q1,23, thanks to economies of scale. I believe we could see a further drop to around 8% or 10% (with R&amp;D capitalized) to be extreme, so I have estimated that for &#34;next year&#34; in my model. Given these estimates, by year four I expect a 14.69% operating margin before expansion.</p><p>I believe Tesla will unlikely decide to go back into &#34;unprofitable&#34; territory again, due to investor sentiment and S&amp;P 500 inclusion requirements.</p><p>It should also be noted that some of the price reduction is already baked in, as back in October 2022, Tesla announced its original price cuts by ~9% in China for the Model 3 and Model Y. Investors initially assumed this was just a response to competition (and it was to a certain extent). However, given the clarity of the long-term strategy, it&#39;s not a crazy amount. Also, price cuts in the U.S. by around $5,000 for each model may help to boost eligibility for the IRS tax credit of $7,500 which could help to boost demand. According to Tesla&#39;s website its Model S, 3, X, and Y qualify for this incentive (assuming other criteria are met).</p><p>In a best-case scenario, I believe Tesla&#39;s operating margin could surpass 24% (with full self-driving and AI as a service) which is slightly higher than the 23% average for a software company.</p><p>Tesla also has a strong balance sheet with $22.185 billion in cash and short-term investment, in addition, to $5.748 billion in long-term debt.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9eb72ddef832d4117abbaaa4f7ec1686\" alt=\"Tesla stock valuation 2 (Created by author Ben at Deep Tech Insights)\" title=\"Tesla stock valuation 2 (Created by author Ben at Deep Tech Insights)\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"656\"/><span>Tesla stock valuation 2 (Created by author Ben at Deep Tech Insights)</span></p><p>Given these factors, I get a fair value of ~$247.36 per share, and thus the stock is ~37.74% undervalued at the time of writing.</p><p>For the &#34;best case&#34; scenario, which includes the 24% operating margin for (full self-driving, AI as a service, and Optimus robots) I get a fair value of over $292.72 per share, which offers an even greater (47%) upside.</p><p>Tesla trades at a price-to-sales (P/S) ratio = 5.2, which is ~36% cheaper than its 5-year average.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f022cf343666a222a0b16c0643b7bf5d\" alt=\"Data by YCharts\" title=\"Data by YCharts\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><h2>Risks</h2><h3>Going Cheap could damage the brand</h3><p>The first Tesla vehicles such as the Roadster were widely adopted by celebrities such as Leonardo Dicaprio, as a &#34;do good&#34; and &#34;status&#34; statement. I personally believe Tesla vehicles are still seen as aspirational with some &#34;prestige&#34;. Therefore if Tesla drops its prices too much it could devalue the brand and its pricing power long term. For example, the luxury automaker Ferrari broke its sales record again in 2022 and saw its calls sell out, despite its Portofino M being priced at $250,000 and its Purosangue SUV costing nearly $400,000 each. Now of course, I don&#39;t put Tesla in the same category as a Ferrari but I consider them to be more closely aligned with Mercedes or Audi. Thus its brand positioning is just something for Tesla to be aware of as it continues to drop prices. There is also the &#34;risk&#34; of a race to the bottom in the EV industry. In fact, if history is to go by back in 1913, Henry Ford introduced the assembly line which the time to build and price of its Model T by 50-70% which resulted in hundreds of competitor car companies going bust and industry consolidation. This may seem bad at first glance but given Tesla and rival BYD&#39;s immense scale, I believe these two will be left standing as the dust settles.</p><h2>Final Thoughts</h2><p>Tesla renewed focus on lower-margin, mass-market vehicles is a strategy that will likely result in short-term pain, but long-term gain. I believe this strategy is actually optimal given the forecasted recession, tepid consumer demand, and increasing competition. In addition, Tesla can continue to &#34;future sell&#34; the value of its full self-driving software and pending vehicles such as the Tesla Cybertruck (over 1.5 million pre-orders as of November 2022). If/when Tesla achieves full self-driving, this could offer huge optionality for the stock and actually change the world as we know it. But the good news is even from an investment standpoint, a base case scenario still indicates Tesla is undervalued intrinsically. Therefore I will deem the stock to be a &#34;buy&#34; for the long term.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title> Tesla: Q1 Margin Squeeze, But Self-Driving Adds Huge Upside Potential</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\">\n Tesla: Q1 Margin Squeeze, But Self-Driving Adds Huge Upside Potential\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-04-27 22:54 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4597206-tesla-q1-margin-squeeze-self-driving-upside-potential><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryTesla has resurrected its \"low margin\", \"affordable\" EV strategy which I believe should help to boost market share, as well as undercut the competition thanks to its economies of scale.The ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4597206-tesla-q1-margin-squeeze-self-driving-upside-potential\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"TSLA":"特斯拉"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4597206-tesla-q1-margin-squeeze-self-driving-upside-potential","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1102618472","content_text":"SummaryTesla has resurrected its \"low margin\", \"affordable\" EV strategy which I believe should help to boost market share, as well as undercut the competition thanks to its economies of scale.The company missed both its revenue and earnings forecast, despite reporting record deliveries and production numbers.My intrinsic valuation model and forecasts indicate Tesla is undervalued in a base case scenario and even more undervalued in a \"best case\", full autonomy, Robots (Optimus) etc.Tesla Shanghai GigafactoryTesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) has recently announced intriguing results for the first quarter of 2023.

In addition, a new \"third space\" will likely be created in which one could use a Tesla as a home office, entertainment center, etc.A fully autonomous vehicle can also be used to generate funds, for the individual when they are not using it. For example, you could be in the office and your Tesla could be doing ride-hailing around a city or doing food deliveries. Therefore the platform could disrupt Uber (UBER) which is valued at $62 billion, at the time of writing.At Tesla's AI day in 2020, the company revealed details of Dojo which it claimed to be the \"fastest\" AI training supercomputer in the world, which was so powerful it actually tripped the power grid in Palo Alto, California.The Dojo platform has huge potential and could be utilized as a high-margin \"sellable service\" similar to AWS cloud. AWS is the profit engine of Amazon (AMZN), driving 188% of its operating income, despite generating just ~14.35% of its total revenue, as of Q4,22. I discussed details of this in my previous post where I made the case that Amazon should spin off AWS, its most lucrative business segment (in my opinion).Tesla ExaPOD Dojo Supercomputer (Tesla AI Day 2022)This Dojo platform and Tesla's developed custom chips (such as the D1) are also expected to be key components for \"Optimus\" Tesla's autonomous robot. An \"affordable\" robot in every home could become a reality and would be aligned extremely well with Tesla's current business model, technology, and strategy. The robotics industry is forecast to grow at a 14.3% compounded annual growth rate [CAGR] and reach a value of $30.8 billion by 2027 thus the potential is huge for Tesla.Tesla Robot Optimus (AI Day 22)Financials and ValuationTesla reported $23.33 billion in revenue which missed analyst forecasts by $26 million, despite increasing by a solid 24% year over year. This growth rate has slowed down substantially from the 34% reported in Q4,22 and the 55.95% in Q3,22, which looks to have been driven by both the \"recessionary\" environment as well as increasing competition. The good news is a \"price cut\" by Tesla should help to solve both issues. It should also be noted that Tesla reported \"record\" production and delivery numbers for the first quarter of 2023. The company generated 422,875 deliveries, which was up from the 405,278 reported in Q4,22. However, its sequential delivery growth rate has declined substantially from 17.87% in Q4,22 to just 4.34% by Q1,23, due to the aforementioned reasons. A positive is Tesla's production numbers have recovered with a record 440,808 reported for the first quarter of 2023, as the company resolved the issues at its Shanghai Gigafactory.In terms of the valuation for Tesla, I have updated my model since my last post with the latest financials for Q1,23. In addition, I have adjusted my revenue growth rate from 26% to 27% for \"next year\" on the back of the planned decrease in prices which I believe should help to spur demand. I have also increased my forecasted revenue growth rate from 31% to 32% in years 2 to 5, due to my expected rebound in the economy and consumer demand (post-2023), plus the price reductions. Keep in mind, this isn't taking into account the potential of Dojo and thus that would really add bonus optionality into the stock.Tesla stock valuation 1 (Created by author Deep Tech Insights)I previously forecast a 20% operating margin over the next 10 years, which I believe is still easily achievable. However, to be conservative and with Musk's renewed focus on lower margins I have stretched this out to be achievable over 12 years. This is still fairly conservative and only represents a 4% increase from the 16% margin achieved in Q4,22 or a 2% increase from the 18% margin achieved with R&D expenses capitalized (as I have done in my model). Investors should be aware, that margins are likely to continue to dip as prices are slashed before we will see a reversion.Tesla reported just a 12% operating margin in 2021 and 16.81% in 2022 and thus even with price cuts its margins are still solid at 11.42% reported for Q1,23, thanks to economies of scale. I believe we could see a further drop to around 8% or 10% (with R&D capitalized) to be extreme, so I have estimated that for \"next year\" in my model. Given these estimates, by year four I expect a 14.69% operating margin before expansion.I believe Tesla will unlikely decide to go back into \"unprofitable\" territory again, due to investor sentiment and S&P 500 inclusion requirements.It should also be noted that some of the price reduction is already baked in, as back in October 2022, Tesla announced its original price cuts by ~9% in China for the Model 3 and Model Y. Investors initially assumed this was just a response to competition (and it was to a certain extent). However, given the clarity of the long-term strategy, it's not a crazy amount. Also, price cuts in the U.S. by around $5,000 for each model may help to boost eligibility for the IRS tax credit of $7,500 which could help to boost demand. According to Tesla's website its Model S, 3, X, and Y qualify for this incentive (assuming other criteria are met).In a best-case scenario, I believe Tesla's operating margin could surpass 24% (with full self-driving and AI as a service) which is slightly higher than the 23% average for a software company.Tesla also has a strong balance sheet with $22.185 billion in cash and short-term investment, in addition, to $5.748 billion in long-term debt.Tesla stock valuation 2 (Created by author Ben at Deep Tech Insights)Given these factors, I get a fair value of ~$247.36 per share, and thus the stock is ~37.74% undervalued at the time of writing.For the \"best case\" scenario, which includes the 24% operating margin for (full self-driving, AI as a service, and Optimus robots) I get a fair value of over $292.72 per share, which offers an even greater (47%) upside.Tesla trades at a price-to-sales (P/S) ratio = 5.2, which is ~36% cheaper than its 5-year average.Data by YChartsRisksGoing Cheap could damage the brandThe first Tesla vehicles such as the Roadster were widely adopted by celebrities such as Leonardo Dicaprio, as a \"do good\" and \"status\" statement. I personally believe Tesla vehicles are still seen as aspirational with some \"prestige\". Therefore if Tesla drops its prices too much it could devalue the brand and its pricing power long term. For example, the luxury automaker Ferrari broke its sales record again in 2022 and saw its calls sell out, despite its Portofino M being priced at $250,000 and its Purosangue SUV costing nearly $400,000 each. Now of course, I don't put Tesla in the same category as a Ferrari but I consider them to be more closely aligned with Mercedes or Audi. Thus its brand positioning is just something for Tesla to be aware of as it continues to drop prices. There is also the \"risk\" of a race to the bottom in the EV industry. In fact, if history is to go by back in 1913, Henry Ford introduced the assembly line which the time to build and price of its Model T by 50-70% which resulted in hundreds of competitor car companies going bust and industry consolidation. This may seem bad at first glance but given Tesla and rival BYD's immense scale, I believe these two will be left standing as the dust settles.Final ThoughtsTesla renewed focus on lower-margin, mass-market vehicles is a strategy that will likely result in short-term pain, but long-term gain. I believe this strategy is actually optimal given the forecasted recession, tepid consumer demand, and increasing competition. In addition, Tesla can continue to \"future sell\" the value of its full self-driving software and pending vehicles such as the Tesla Cybertruck (over 1.5 million pre-orders as of November 2022). If/when Tesla achieves full self-driving, this could offer huge optionality for the stock and actually change the world as we know it. But the good news is even from an investment standpoint, a base case scenario still indicates Tesla is undervalued intrinsically. Therefore I will deem the stock to be a \"buy\" for the long term.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":540,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9948519179,"gmtCreate":1680739732492,"gmtModify":1680739737115,"author":{"id":"3570608563368860","authorId":"3570608563368860","name":"Venture118f","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3887689271b688d92c9bf6299b2a2c56","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3570608563368860","authorIdStr":"3570608563368860"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Roller coaster ride again&nbsp;[开心]&nbsp;","listText":"Roller coaster ride again&nbsp;[开心]&nbsp;","text":"Roller coaster ride again [开心]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":31,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9948519179","repostId":"2325313401","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":356,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9940245770,"gmtCreate":1677981432690,"gmtModify":1677981436076,"author":{"id":"3570608563368860","authorId":"3570608563368860","name":"Venture118f","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3887689271b688d92c9bf6299b2a2c56","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3570608563368860","authorIdStr":"3570608563368860"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🤩","listText":"🤩","text":"🤩","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9940245770","repostId":"9957259153","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":9957259153,"gmtCreate":1677308230173,"gmtModify":1677308851895,"author":{"id":"4113904591642392","authorId":"4113904591642392","name":"LMSunshine","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0ad636f2490d8428fcee9da6d669e46c","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"4113904591642392","authorIdStr":"4113904591642392"},"themes":[],"title":"How I Beat The Market By Analysing Economic Data & 🗞🗞🗞 Instead of “Buy the Rumor🗣🗣, Sell the News📰”","htmlText":"\"Buy the rumor🗣🗣, sell the news📰” is a trading strategy that can be used by traders eyeing short-term profits. ✅ In this strategy, traders buy a security based on speculation about an upcoming 📰 event &amp; sell the security when that 📰 is announced. ❌ Disadvantages of the strategy include lack of accuracy &amp; potential loss of opportunity on decisions not made quickly enough💸💸💸 ➡️ A common example of “Buy the 🗣🗣, sell the 🗞🗞🗞” in the stock market is trading based on the expectation of a company's quarterly earnings report.

Photographer: Justin Sullivan/Getty Images North America</span></p><p>It pays to parse the language of any company’s earnings report, but perhaps more so for Tesla Inc. You could say it’s in the corporate genes. After all, Chief Executive Elon Musk has spent much of the past several days trying to convince a jury that he really did have “funding secured” in 2018. That’s despite his mooted multi-billion dollar take-private deal seeming to have had less in the way of documented pre-approvals than your average household mortgage application.</p><p>The line that caught my eye on Wednesday evening concerned guidance, with Tesla aiming to produce 1.8 million vehicles this year and, thereby, “remain ahead of the long-term 50% CAGR,” or compound annual growth rate. For a couple of years, Tesla has said it aims to grow annual production by half, on average, over a “multi-year horizon.” Compare that 2023 target with 2020’s output of just over half-a-million and you do indeed get a compounded growth rate of more than 50%. But actual growth<i>this</i>year looks set to be 31%.</p><p>Let’s acknowledge that is still phenomenal for any reasonably sized autos manufacturer. Just five years ago, Tesla produced only about 250,000 vehicles.</p><p>But the tell here is the language, with Tesla going out of its way to emphasize that, technically, it will remain true to the “multi-year” target despite growth slowing sharply. Certainly, it has slowed more sharply than expected: The consensus forecast for 2023 is 1.95 million. Which gets at why Tesla likely felt the need for a growth-secured moment.</p><p>The disappointing fourth-quarter deliveries and price cuts that have unnerved investors over the past month or so fed through to Wednesday’s results. Inventory jumped and implied average selling prices, excluding leased vehicles and regulatory credits, dipped under $52,000, their lowest in a year. Even that figure was boosted by roughly $800 via the recognition of $324 million of deferred revenue linked to Tesla’s generously named Full Self Driving package. Gross profit per vehicle sold, at about $12,300, was the lowest in almost two years. Free cash flow dropped by a third, year-over-year, well shy of forecasts.</p><p>This is not surprising, but it is troubling. It isn’t surprising because companies chasing growth quite often run into the problem of boosting capacity faster than sales. Tesla produced 1.37 million vehicles last year but lists capacity of more than 1.9 million, with new and expanded factories expected in markets from Mexico to Indonesia.</p><p>It is troubling because, despite the collapse in Tesla’s stock over the past year or so, it still trades at a 77% premium to the S&amp;P 500 based on multiples of forward earnings estimates — estimates that look vulnerable after these results. Tesla remains priced for growth, but the growth story comes with the caveats of using average multi-year percentages and evident reliance on price cuts. The latter are especially inimical to Tesla’s aura because price cuts to move product are what you get from regular old car companies that trade on single-digit earnings multiples (Tesla’s is 32 times).</p><p>Even worse, regular old car companies haven’t been cutting prices of late, despite lower deliveries. This owes partly to the pandemic-related disruption of supply chains, leaving dealer lots sparse and giving the industry a relatively rare dose of pricing power. The likes of Ford Motor Co. took this on board in terms of aligning production more closely with sales. That is, in effect, the opposite of what’s happened with Tesla as it chases growth.</p><p>During Wednesday evening’s Q&amp;A, Musk touted Tesla’s AI capabilities. Framing Tesla as being more than an autos company has long been an effective way of boosting its valuation — albeit less effective of late. This year’s challenge for Tesla won’t be delivering robotaxis or a walking robot. It will be dealing with soft demand amid a potential recession that Musk seems to regard as all but certain. For investors who have just undergone a year of deflating expectations, it will be bracing for another dose.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1584095487587","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Photographer: Justin Sullivan/Getty Images North AmericaIt pays to parse the language of any company’s earnings report, but perhaps more so for Tesla Inc. You could say it’s in the corporate genes. After all, Chief Executive Elon Musk has spent much of the past several days trying to convince a jury that he really did have “funding secured” in 2018. That’s despite his mooted multi-billion dollar take-private deal seeming to have had less in the way of documented pre-approvals than your average household mortgage application.The line that caught my eye on Wednesday evening concerned guidance, with Tesla aiming to produce 1.8 million vehicles this year and, thereby, “remain ahead of the long-term 50% CAGR,” or compound annual growth rate. For a couple of years, Tesla has said it aims to grow annual production by half, on average, over a “multi-year horizon.” Compare that 2023 target with 2020’s output of just over half-a-million and you do indeed get a compounded growth rate of more than 50%. But actual growththisyear looks set to be 31%.Let’s acknowledge that is still phenomenal for any reasonably sized autos manufacturer. Just five years ago, Tesla produced only about 250,000 vehicles.But the tell here is the language, with Tesla going out of its way to emphasize that, technically, it will remain true to the “multi-year” target despite growth slowing sharply. Certainly, it has slowed more sharply than expected: The consensus forecast for 2023 is 1.95 million. Which gets at why Tesla likely felt the need for a growth-secured moment.The disappointing fourth-quarter deliveries and price cuts that have unnerved investors over the past month or so fed through to Wednesday’s results. Inventory jumped and implied average selling prices, excluding leased vehicles and regulatory credits, dipped under $52,000, their lowest in a year. Even that figure was boosted by roughly $800 via the recognition of $324 million of deferred revenue linked to Tesla’s generously named Full Self Driving package. Gross profit per vehicle sold, at about $12,300, was the lowest in almost two years. Free cash flow dropped by a third, year-over-year, well shy of forecasts.This is not surprising, but it is troubling. It isn’t surprising because companies chasing growth quite often run into the problem of boosting capacity faster than sales. Tesla produced 1.37 million vehicles last year but lists capacity of more than 1.9 million, with new and expanded factories expected in markets from Mexico to Indonesia.It is troubling because, despite the collapse in Tesla’s stock over the past year or so, it still trades at a 77% premium to the S&P 500 based on multiples of forward earnings estimates — estimates that look vulnerable after these results. Tesla remains priced for growth, but the growth story comes with the caveats of using average multi-year percentages and evident reliance on price cuts. The latter are especially inimical to Tesla’s aura because price cuts to move product are what you get from regular old car companies that trade on single-digit earnings multiples (Tesla’s is 32 times).Even worse, regular old car companies haven’t been cutting prices of late, despite lower deliveries. This owes partly to the pandemic-related disruption of supply chains, leaving dealer lots sparse and giving the industry a relatively rare dose of pricing power. The likes of Ford Motor Co. took this on board in terms of aligning production more closely with sales. That is, in effect, the opposite of what’s happened with Tesla as it chases growth.During Wednesday evening’s Q&A, Musk touted Tesla’s AI capabilities. Framing Tesla as being more than an autos company has long been an effective way of boosting its valuation — albeit less effective of late. This year’s challenge for Tesla won’t be delivering robotaxis or a walking robot. It will be dealing with soft demand amid a potential recession that Musk seems to regard as all but certain. For investors who have just undergone a year of deflating expectations, it will be bracing for another dose.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":680,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9956269970,"gmtCreate":1674017225191,"gmtModify":1676538916667,"author":{"id":"3570608563368860","authorId":"3570608563368860","name":"Venture118f","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3887689271b688d92c9bf6299b2a2c56","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3570608563368860","authorIdStr":"3570608563368860"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hope to see above $180 soon ☺️☺️","listText":"Hope to see above $180 soon ☺️☺️","text":"Hope to see above $180 soon ☺️☺️","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9956269970","repostId":"2304782485","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2304782485","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1674009192,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2304782485?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-01-18 10:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Did Tesla Stock Rally Today?

Funding secured.&#34;</p><p>An investor, Glen Littleton, sued Tesla, Mr. Musk and members of Tesla&#39;s board at the time, alleging that Mr. Musk&#39;s tweets were false and cost investors billions by spurring swings in the prices for Tesla stock, options and bonds. In court filings, Mr. Musk has said he was indeed considering taking Tesla private and believed he had the support of Saudi Arabia&#39;s sovereign-wealth fund to do so. The deal, which would have been valued around $72 billion, never materialized.</p><p>U.S. District Judge Edward Chen, who is overseeing the San Francisco jury trial that is scheduled to run through Feb. 1, has ruled that Mr. Musk&#39;s tweets about taking the company private weren&#39;t true and that he acted recklessly in making them.</p><p>Questions for the jury include whether Mr. Musk&#39;s tweets were material to investors and whether he knew they were untrue.</p><p>The case is unusual in that securities-fraud cases usually resolve before going to trial, such as through a settlement, said Jill Fisch, a securities-law professor at the University of Pennsylvania. The defendants in this case face &#34;an uphill battle&#34; in light of the judge&#39;s pretrial decision about the veracity of Mr. Musk&#39;s statements, she said.</p><p>Attorneys for the lead plaintiff didn&#39;t respond to a request for comment, nor did an attorney for Tesla, Mr. Musk and the other board members.</p><p>Mr. Musk is expected to take the stand as early as Wednesday, some two months after he did so in Delaware in a trial over his pay package at Tesla. In 2021, he also appeared before Delaware&#39;s business-law court to defend Tesla&#39;s roughly $2.1 billion 2016 takeover of home-solar company SolarCity Corp.</p><p>Also on the list of possible witnesses are Tesla board chair Robyn Denholm, board members Ira Ehrenpreis, James Murdoch and Kimbal Musk -- the CEO&#39;s brother. The head of investor relations, Martin Viecha, also may be called.</p><p>This week&#39;s trial comes at a busy time for Mr. Musk, who has been scrambling to turn around Twitter Inc. after buying the social-media company last fall in a deal valued at $44 billion. His rocket company SpaceX is pushing for the first orbital launch of a new rocket Mr. Musk wants to use for deep-space missions.</p><p>Tesla, meanwhile, has slashed prices across its vehicle lineup, with some of last week&#39;s cuts in the U.S. nearing 20%, in a bid to juice demand. The company&#39;s stock has fallen roughly 70% since its peak in November 2021, erasing around $850 billion in market value. Mr. Musk&#39;s personal wealth has fallen more than $200 billion in that time, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.</p><p>Court proceedings involving Mr. Musk can be feisty. In the SolarCity case, for example, Mr. Musk called opposing counsel a &#34;bad human being.&#34;</p><p>In advance of this week&#39;s trial, Mr. Musk asked the court to move the trial to Texas on the basis that potential jurors in San Francisco could be biased against him. Judge Chen rejected the request.</p><p>&#34;It isn&#39;t that hard it seems to me to find 15 people,&#34; he said.</p><p>The court requires nine jurors and six alternates to proceed with the case. Roughly 190 potential jurors were asked to fill out questionnaires about their views of Mr. Musk and other issues. The court plans to bring in about 50 of them for further questioning Tuesday.</p><p>Opening arguments could start as early as Tuesday after the jury is selected.</p><p>The lead plaintiff is seeking damages for investor losses he alleges stemmed from Mr. Musk&#39;s and Tesla&#39;s statements. Tesla stock closed up 11% the day Mr. Musk initially tweeted about potentially taking Tesla private, later giving back all those gains and falling further as questions emerged about the deal.</p><p>The defendants have said the plaintiff won&#39;t be able to prove to a jury that the statements were materially false. Mr. Musk was considering taking Tesla private, the defendants have said, even if some of his assertions about the deal may not have been literally accurate.</p><p>Defendants, in a trial brief, said Mr. Musk believed he had secured backing to take the car maker private from Saudi Arabia&#39;s sovereign-wealth fund, the Public Investment Fund. A lawyer for the defendants said Friday that his team had chosen not to enforce subpoenas calling on fund representatives to testify.

Then a range of macroscopic headwinds broughtit back to the current $2T level.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3108e01a6750cb04f274eb19cbfa8b9e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"378\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><p>The thesis here is to explain why I see it as only a matter of time before Apple&#39;s market cap returns to $3T. And, very likely, this time it will do it with style and also on a more permanent basis. The pullbacks were largely caused by macroscopic conditions, not AAPL&#39;s products&#39; issues. Some of the key issues include the ongoing supply-chain disruptions, the persistence of COVID-19 (especially in China), high inflation, and unfavorable currency exchange rates. And I see all of these issues to be only temporary.</p><p>And the time for its market cap to climb back to $3T might be sooner than you think. Its hardware remains hugely popular and sales in pretty much all categories set a record in FY 2022 despite all the above challenges. For the year, Apple set sale records for the flagship iPhone (up 9.7% YOY to $42.6 billion), its iconic Mac line of personal computers (up 25% YOY, to $11.5 billion), and also wearables.</p><p>Besides its traditional product lines, there are at least two more powerful catalysts at work even as we speak: its transformation into a service company and its success with its own chips. And we will detail these immediately below.</p><h2>Transformation from a hardware company to a service company</h2><p>Many investors associate AAPL mostly with hardware (iPhone, Mac, et al) simply because it is so hugely successful with them. However, the main reason I am bullish on its long-term picture is its transformation into a service business. Apple&#39;s installed base of active devices set all-time highs in all of its major product divisions and geographic regions in 2022. And its services-related revenues are making up an increasingly larger portion of the total sales as seen in the chart below. To wit, according to this Trefis analysis, APPL&#39;s Services business raked in a total of $56B of revenues in FY 2020, which already is its second-largest segment and contributed about 19.5% of its total revenues. Looking forward, this segment is projected to almost double to reach sales of more than $93B.</p><p>And I think the projection is totally plausible (and you can see the details of the projection by following the link provided above). AAPL&#39;s immense installation base already laid the foundation for the rapid growth in its service revenues, which enjoy higher margins and better recurrence.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fa85742a4fb10bc137e788df9f416795\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"354\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Trefis data</span></p><h2>Strategic shift to its own chips</h2><p>Another very powerful catalyst at work in my view involves AAPL&#39;s strategic launch of its own chip lines. Back in June 2022, AAPL unveiled the M2 chip, its next-generation chip following its M1 chip. The M2 chip is designed based on the SOC concept (System on a Chip) and it&#39;s developed for use in both the Macs and iPads product lines. The M2 chip design is vastly better than its M1 chip and also the Intel chip it used to deploy as its CEO Tim Cook commented in the 2022 Q2 earnings report (slightly edited and the emphases were added by me):</p><blockquote><i>Last month we announced</i> <i><b>another breakthrough with M1 Ultra, the world&#39;s most powerful chip for a personal computer.</b></i><i>The incredible customer response to our M1-powered Macs helped</i> <i><b>propel a 15% year-over-year increase in revenue, despite supply constraints. We now have our most powerful Mac lineup ever,</b></i> <i>with the addition of the entirely new Mac Studio.</i></blockquote><p>The M2 chip is more power efficient and computationally powerful at the same time. To wit, according to data from CPU Ninja, drawing the power, the M2 integrates 25% more transistors than the M1 (20 billion transistors in total) and 50% faster memory speed than M1 (up to 100GB/s) memory speed. These advancements are directly reflected in its end products such as battery life and impressive multi-threaded performance in apps like the Mac Studio Tim Cook mentioned above. Take the battery life in an M2 Mac as an example. With M2 chips, it can last up to 2x longer compared to earlier generations installed with Intel chips.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cf62438c2b31ff036eb6d1a0503ff64b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"367\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: CPU Ninja data</span></p><h2>Share buybacks are even more potent now</h2><p>Finally, AAPL&#39;s aggressive share repurchases will add another catalyst, financial catalysts in addition to the above business catalysts, to push its valuation back to $3T.</p><p>AAPL is a large buyer of its own shares in recent years as seen from the following chart. In 2014 when it first started its share repurchase program, its total shares outstanding stood at 23.5B shares (adjusted for its split). And now it stands at 16.12B as seen, translating into a total reduction of almost 1/3 (32.5% to be exact). Each AAPL shareholder now owns 1/3 more of the company than in 2014.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bcaba5cb9f0d8968d442bd7d5826f0f9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"402\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><p>Looking forward, AAPL&#39;s pace of repurchasing will very likely continue, and its cash flow certainly can support it with no problem. As its CFO Luca Maestri repeatedly mentioned the Board&#39;s commitment to share repurchases and AAPL&#39;s plan to become net cash neutral over time. All told, in 2022, the board has authorized an additional $90 billion for share repurchases in the years to come. And this massive $90 billion repurchases only became more potent at the current compressed valuations as illustrated in my analysis below.</p><p>The results are my projected of the share buybacks in the next few years, and my numbers are based on a few simple assumptions as detailed in my earlier articles:</p><blockquote><ul><li><i>I assumed AAPL distributes the $90B as a constant percentage of its operating cash flow, which turns out to be 78%</i></li><li><i>I assumed that AAPL profits grow at an 8% CAGR according to</i> <i>consensus estimates.</i></li><li><i>Finally, I also assumed an average repurchase price of 18.0x of its operating cash (which is about its current multiple as of this writing).</i></li></ul></blockquote><p>You can see that its total shares count would further shrink by another 19.8% in the next 5 years. And each AAPL shareholder would own ~20% of the company without really doing anything. Finally, you can see that its market cap would reach $3.0T somewhere around 2026~2027.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b8f0654b2523ceb0d881dbb2edc112a2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"146\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha data</span></p><h2>Risks and final thoughts</h2><p>To reiterate, there is indeed a range of immediate headwinds facing AAPL as aforementioned, including supply-chain congestion, the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation, and also the possible U.S. or even economic growth slowdown. These headwinds could prompt businesses and individual consumers to ease up on their discretionary spending. However, I do not see any long-term structural risks to AAPL. But these headwinds are more general and not unique to AAPL. A more unique and serious risk to AAPL is its large reliance on China.</p><p>In terms of upside risks to my above analysis, I see the assumption of an 18x cash flow multiple as too conservative. A business like AAPL should be easily worth at least 20x of its cash flow. And if its valuation indeed reverts back to 20x cash flow, this little reversion would hasten its climb back to $3T to a timeframe around 2025~2026 - you have already been warned that the time might be sooner than you think!</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha_fund","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

And the time might be sooner than you think.Apple's transformation into a service company and the launch of its own chips are two powerful catalysts.Massive share buybacks are even more potent thanks to the temporary stock price setbacks.nayukiThesisEarly in 2022 (Jan 3, 2022 to be exact, as you can see from the following chart), Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) became the first company to reach a $3T market cap during intraday trading. Then a range of macroscopic headwinds broughtit back to the current $2T level.Source: Seeking Alpha dataThe thesis here is to explain why I see it as only a matter of time before Apple's market cap returns to $3T. And, very likely, this time it will do it with style and also on a more permanent basis. The pullbacks were largely caused by macroscopic conditions, not AAPL's products' issues. Some of the key issues include the ongoing supply-chain disruptions, the persistence of COVID-19 (especially in China), high inflation, and unfavorable currency exchange rates. And I see all of these issues to be only temporary.And the time for its market cap to climb back to $3T might be sooner than you think. Its hardware remains hugely popular and sales in pretty much all categories set a record in FY 2022 despite all the above challenges. For the year, Apple set sale records for the flagship iPhone (up 9.7% YOY to $42.6 billion), its iconic Mac line of personal computers (up 25% YOY, to $11.5 billion), and also wearables.Besides its traditional product lines, there are at least two more powerful catalysts at work even as we speak: its transformation into a service company and its success with its own chips. And we will detail these immediately below.Transformation from a hardware company to a service companyMany investors associate AAPL mostly with hardware (iPhone, Mac, et al) simply because it is so hugely successful with them. However, the main reason I am bullish on its long-term picture is its transformation into a service business. Apple's installed base of active devices set all-time highs in all of its major product divisions and geographic regions in 2022. And its services-related revenues are making up an increasingly larger portion of the total sales as seen in the chart below. To wit, according to this Trefis analysis, APPL's Services business raked in a total of $56B of revenues in FY 2020, which already is its second-largest segment and contributed about 19.5% of its total revenues. Looking forward, this segment is projected to almost double to reach sales of more than $93B.And I think the projection is totally plausible (and you can see the details of the projection by following the link provided above). AAPL's immense installation base already laid the foundation for the rapid growth in its service revenues, which enjoy higher margins and better recurrence.Source: Trefis dataStrategic shift to its own chipsAnother very powerful catalyst at work in my view involves AAPL's strategic launch of its own chip lines. Back in June 2022, AAPL unveiled the M2 chip, its next-generation chip following its M1 chip. The M2 chip is designed based on the SOC concept (System on a Chip) and it's developed for use in both the Macs and iPads product lines. The M2 chip design is vastly better than its M1 chip and also the Intel chip it used to deploy as its CEO Tim Cook commented in the 2022 Q2 earnings report (slightly edited and the emphases were added by me):Last month we announced another breakthrough with M1 Ultra, the world's most powerful chip for a personal computer.The incredible customer response to our M1-powered Macs helped propel a 15% year-over-year increase in revenue, despite supply constraints. We now have our most powerful Mac lineup ever, with the addition of the entirely new Mac Studio.The M2 chip is more power efficient and computationally powerful at the same time. To wit, according to data from CPU Ninja, drawing the power, the M2 integrates 25% more transistors than the M1 (20 billion transistors in total) and 50% faster memory speed than M1 (up to 100GB/s) memory speed. These advancements are directly reflected in its end products such as battery life and impressive multi-threaded performance in apps like the Mac Studio Tim Cook mentioned above. Take the battery life in an M2 Mac as an example. With M2 chips, it can last up to 2x longer compared to earlier generations installed with Intel chips.Source: CPU Ninja dataShare buybacks are even more potent nowFinally, AAPL's aggressive share repurchases will add another catalyst, financial catalysts in addition to the above business catalysts, to push its valuation back to $3T.AAPL is a large buyer of its own shares in recent years as seen from the following chart. In 2014 when it first started its share repurchase program, its total shares outstanding stood at 23.5B shares (adjusted for its split). And now it stands at 16.12B as seen, translating into a total reduction of almost 1/3 (32.5% to be exact). Each AAPL shareholder now owns 1/3 more of the company than in 2014.Source: Seeking Alpha dataLooking forward, AAPL's pace of repurchasing will very likely continue, and its cash flow certainly can support it with no problem. As its CFO Luca Maestri repeatedly mentioned the Board's commitment to share repurchases and AAPL's plan to become net cash neutral over time. All told, in 2022, the board has authorized an additional $90 billion for share repurchases in the years to come. And this massive $90 billion repurchases only became more potent at the current compressed valuations as illustrated in my analysis below.The results are my projected of the share buybacks in the next few years, and my numbers are based on a few simple assumptions as detailed in my earlier articles:I assumed AAPL distributes the $90B as a constant percentage of its operating cash flow, which turns out to be 78%I assumed that AAPL profits grow at an 8% CAGR according to consensus estimates.Finally, I also assumed an average repurchase price of 18.0x of its operating cash (which is about its current multiple as of this writing).You can see that its total shares count would further shrink by another 19.8% in the next 5 years. And each AAPL shareholder would own ~20% of the company without really doing anything. Finally, you can see that its market cap would reach $3.0T somewhere around 2026~2027.Source: Author based on Seeking Alpha dataRisks and final thoughtsTo reiterate, there is indeed a range of immediate headwinds facing AAPL as aforementioned, including supply-chain congestion, the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation, and also the possible U.S. or even economic growth slowdown. These headwinds could prompt businesses and individual consumers to ease up on their discretionary spending. However, I do not see any long-term structural risks to AAPL. But these headwinds are more general and not unique to AAPL. A more unique and serious risk to AAPL is its large reliance on China.In terms of upside risks to my above analysis, I see the assumption of an 18x cash flow multiple as too conservative. A business like AAPL should be easily worth at least 20x of its cash flow. And if its valuation indeed reverts back to 20x cash flow, this little reversion would hasten its climb back to $3T to a timeframe around 2025~2026 - you have already been warned that the time might be sooner than you think!","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":247,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9959780502,"gmtCreate":1673068648107,"gmtModify":1676538783467,"author":{"id":"3570608563368860","authorId":"3570608563368860","name":"Venture118f","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3887689271b688d92c9bf6299b2a2c56","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3570608563368860","authorIdStr":"3570608563368860"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/MZH.SI\">$Nanofilm(MZH.SI)$&nbsp;</a>....

Should Apple stock investors worry?</li></ul><p>The news flow continues to be predominantly bearish for <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> stock and its investors. So far this post-Thanksgiving week, shares have already dipped 5%, a good bit more than the S&amp;P 500’s more modest decline.</p><p>The culprit remains the same of the past few weeks: the shortage of iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max devices.

At least so far, Kapulskis has proven right in his caution toward iPhone unit sales estimates in the holiday quarter. In his most recent note, he said:</p><p>“This reduction of 6 million units, if it occurs, represents ~7% reduction in relation to Apple’s initial expectations. This, in our view, increases the risk for estimates, especially as it is mainly about the high-end models (iPhone Pro), which is where the market is more focused.”</p><p>More upbeat is Webush’s Dan Ives, who acknowledges the “absolute body blow” that this supply issue has been – but he sees the silver lining.

Should Apple stock investors worry?The news flow continues to be predominantly bearish for Apple stock and its investors. So far this post-Thanksgiving week, shares have already dipped 5%, a good bit more than the S&P 500’s more modest decline.The culprit remains the same of the past few weeks: the shortage of iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max devices. Could this be the beginning of a decline in share price that persists through December, or just a bump in the road that AAPL investors should largely ignore?Too few iPhone 14 Pro to sellMost recently, Bloomberg reported that Apple’s iPhone Pro sales could take a hit to the tune of 6 million units this year.ItauBBA’s Thiago Kapulskis is just about the only analyst on the Street with an underperform rating on Apple stock. At least so far, Kapulskis has proven right in his caution toward iPhone unit sales estimates in the holiday quarter. In his most recent note, he said:“This reduction of 6 million units, if it occurs, represents ~7% reduction in relation to Apple’s initial expectations. This, in our view, increases the risk for estimates, especially as it is mainly about the high-end models (iPhone Pro), which is where the market is more focused.”More upbeat is Webush’s Dan Ives, who acknowledges the “absolute body blow” that this supply issue has been – but he sees the silver lining. According to the analyst, demand for the iPhone remains robust, which should help to support sales past the holiday period.My take on Apple stock vs. iPhone worriesTo me, the market is not wrong in its bearish knee-jerk reaction to the news coming out of China. The holiday quarter is the big one for Apple, when the Cupertino company tends to generate about one-third of its full-year revenues.Keep in mind that, in the market, there aren’t only long-term investors exchanging AAPL shares.

That's the biggest wipeout in market value for any US company ever.And while the stock could certainly bounce back in coming days, especially given the volatility that's gripped the technology sector this year, the mood on Wall Street has turned decidedly bleak on the long-time market darling.Analysts are pointing to the stiff competition that Meta now faces from rivals and to the fact that revenue was below expectations as causes for concern. Michael Nathanson, an analyst at brokerage Moffett Nathanson, titled his note \"Facebook: The Beginning of the End?\"\"These cuts run deep,\" he wrote. The results were \"a headline grabber and not in a good way.\"The sheer size of Facebook's collapse illustrates just how tech companies have ballooned in size to become behemoths with unprecedented market power, and the drama that can ensue when they stumble.\"Lots of US megacaps are priced as growth stocks. They may suffer more in a rising yield environment, especially if growth becomes more questionable,\" said Frederic Rollin, senior investment advisor at Pictet Asset Management.Meta \"finds itself in the middle of a perfect storm,\" wrote Youssef Squali, an analyst at Truist Securities.Twitter, Snap and Pinterest all closed lower on Thursday and dragged the Nasdaq Index down 4.2 per cent, its worst sell-off since September 2020. Meta shares rose 1.4 per cent after hours.Meta's market cap as of Wednesday's close stood at roughly US$900 billion. The company makes up one of the original FAANG cohort of tech megacaps, including Google's parent Alphabet., Amazon.com and Apple.It's not the first time Meta shares have dropped dramatically. The stock plunged 19 per cent in July 2018 on a slowdown in user growth, translating to a about US$120 billion decline in market capitalisation. At the time, it set the record for the largest-ever loss of value in one day for a US traded company.\"We're hopeful the company kitchen-sinked the outlook,\" said Shyam Patil, an analyst at Susquehanna Financial Group.More On This TopicFacebook parent Meta sheds US$200 billion in stock plummetMark Zuckerberg loses US$29 billion in a day as Meta shares crash","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":202,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344036048,"gmtCreate":1618359359984,"gmtModify":1704709573677,"author":{"id":"3570608563368860","authorId":"3570608563368860","name":"Venture118f","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3887689271b688d92c9bf6299b2a2c56","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570608563368860","authorIdStr":"3570608563368860"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Huat ah .... market going for new height !!","listText":"Huat ah .... market going for new height !!","text":"Huat ah .... market going for new height !!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/344036048","repostId":"1153672645","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1153672645","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1618359095,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1153672645?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-14 08:11","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore’s economy grew 0.2% on-year in the first quarter of 2021, beating expectations","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1153672645","media":"CNBC","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nSingapore’s economy unexpectedly grew 0.2% in the first quarter of 2021 from a year ago,","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nSingapore’s economy unexpectedly grew 0.2% in the first quarter of 2021 from a year ago, official advance estimates showed on Wednesday.\nThat marked the Southeast Asian country’s first ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/14/singapore-releases-first-quarter-gdp-advance-estimates-monetary-policy.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

I believe that the downside is somewhat limited, with a strong upside.</li></ul><h2>Introduction</h2><p>Technically speaking, <b>Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)</b> is the only company in my portfolio that is a member of the technology sector. While I tend to disagree with the definition of technology, I thought long and hard before buying technology in 2021. I wanted a company that brings both growth and value to the table. A company that offers a growing dividend and buybacks without giving up on its ability to outperform - after all, I&#39;m not looking to go overweight in high-yield investments. Apple offers all of this. While Apple is struggling this year, it is outperforming every other FAANG stock by a wide margin. This happens despite significant consumer weakness, lower business investments, and the fact that Apple&#39;s products are in the highest price range. In this article, I&#39;m going to dive into all of this and explain why I believe that Apple is a go-to stock for investors looking to buy high-quality growth exposure. This includes my strategy going forward, as we need to incorporate way more than Apple&#39;s ability to invent great products.</p><p>So, let&#39;s get to it!</p><h2>It&#39;s A Scary Business Environment</h2><p>The little brown area in the chart below displays my technology exposure. While I would make the case that several defense companies (industrials) in my portfolio are way more high-tech than most stocks in the technology sector, it is important to own stocks that perform better in a falling-rate environment. In other words, buying Apple was mainly based on diversification.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/50f9d99495363bbc24d79e1156a9f750\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Author</p><p>That said, I could have gone with a lot of technology stocks, yet I went with Apple. Going back twelve months, Apple is currently the only stock in positive territory. Note that I included Microsoft (MSFT), NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA), and Amazon (AMZN) as well. After all, FAANG has evolved a bit over the years.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/07f8247f254110297bc0bfac6717d880\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"518\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>Essentially, I liked the concept behind FAANG (or FAANG+, or FAANGMAN, or whatever you want to use) because it perfectly captured the bull market between the Great Financial Recession and the surge in inflation in 2021.</p><p>Federal Reserve interest rates were low, inflation was low, global QE programs fueled liquidity, and technological developments were fast. As the chart (from September 2022) below shows, interest rates were highly accommodative between 2009 and 2022. The only exception was the surge in rates after 2016, which allowed value stocks to briefly outperform growth stocks.<img src=\"https://www.cmegroup.com/content/dam/cmegroup/insights/images/2022/a-perspective-on-interest-rate-neutrality-fig03.jpg\" tg-width=\"940\" tg-height=\"600\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>CME Group</p><p>Essentially, accommodative rates mean that Fed policy rates are below long-term inflation expectations.

Inflation accelerated as a result of supply chain issues, commodity shortages, labor inflation, and fiscal and monetary stimulus of 2020 and 2021.

Apple isn&#39;t just a tech stock, it is also highly dependent on the health of the consumer. After all, 52% of its $394 billion net sales in FY2022 came from its iPhone (other products also depend on the consumer). Hence, one of the reasons why so many investors have not invested in Apple is the fact that the consumer is in a terrible spot. Using the University of Michigan numbers, the current financial situation of consumers in the United States hasn&#39;t been this low since 2010.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/568283294349a80eb431b0cd4cd26fed\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"383\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>University of Michigan</p><p>In Europe, the situation is even worse due to the energy crisis. In China, we&#39;re dealing with ongoing lockdowns (Zero COVID) that keep people from spending as much as they would under normal circumstances. On a side note, despite lockdowns, Apple grew sales by 9% in Greater China in FY2022. That beats European sales by 200 basis points! I expect these sales to rebound when China ends its Zero COVID policy in early 2023 (according to my sources).</p><p>Hence, now bad headlines are emerging. For example, Apple is now offering rare MacBook deals to accelerate its sales.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3c5dac3d8f0ae070f1e07e7fe3746df\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"161\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Bloomberg</p><p>As reported by Bloomberg, the company is offering discounts of as much as 10%.

Weakness is also hitting the iPhone (as most already expected, given macroeconomic conditions). J.P. Morgan just came out, making the case that sales in the December quarter will decline year-on-year.</p><p>As reported by Seeking Alpha:</p><blockquote>Analyst Samik Chatterjee lowered his iPhone 14 estimates by 5M and other iPhone estimates by <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MMM\">3M</a> and now forecasts iPhone and total revenues to decline year-over-year during the period.</blockquote><blockquote>&#34;In relation to impact to [fiscal year 2023] estimates overall, the reduction to estimates are more modest as we expect part of the shipment shortfall in the December quarter to be made up in the March quarter, which typically being a lower production quarter will give Apple ample opportunities to recover the shortfall, and on the demand side based on historical precedent we expect limited to modest impact to consumer demand from delays and extended delivery times,&#34; Chatterjee wrote.</blockquote><p>I have to say that this news sounds worse than it is. For example, the iPhone has been strong until the December quarter. In its fourth quarter, the company grew iPhone sales by 10%. While this includes pricing, it&#39;s on top of 39% revenue growth in the prior-year quarter. That&#39;s better news than most give Apple credit for.</p><p>However, Apple was very reluctant when it comes to predicting what demand may look like - especially with regard to pricing issues and lower-cost competitors.</p><p>Tim Cook mentioned supply chain issues that kept the company from selling as many iPhones as it would have liked. Moreover, iPhone 14 demand is hard to estimate as Apple has introduced a number of new models (Max, Pro, you name it).</p><p>However, one of the reasons why I&#39;m not worried about competition is the fact that quality differences are a huge issue when looking for better prices. I&#39;ve spent the past four weeks figuring out what my new phone is going to be. I can go for a cheap option from a competitor. However, reviews are just terrible. When looking for a quality phone, there really isn&#39;t a cheap alternative to the iPhone anymore. Hence, people stay in the Apple ecosystem. Or, even better, people join the ecosystem. I&#39;ve had more friends and colleagues switch to Apple in the past 12 months than people leaving Apple - including a lot of penny pinchers.</p><p>Hence, I wasn&#39;t surprised that Tim Cook mentioned great results for the iPhone in all key regions:</p><blockquote>We were really pleased with the broadness of the iPhone strength last quarter. We had three of the top four smartphones in the U.S. and the UK, the top three in Urban China, the top six in Australia, four out of the top five in Germany and the top two in Japan. And customer satisfaction for the iPhone remains very, very strong at 98%.</blockquote><p>Moreover, in light of high inflation, Apple has maintained strong margins. Apple&#39;s operating margin has been consistently above 30.0% in the 2022 calendar year. Microsoft is strong as well. Companies like Netflix (NFLX), Meta (META), and Amazon have a much harder time dealing with inflation. Moreover, in most cases, demand weakness makes this even harder.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5bab72c94b1eb7593597c5b76b716145\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"518\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>The key here is Apple&#39;s supply chain resilience. Like all companies, Apple did feel headwinds from the severe supply shortages (i.e., semiconductors) that started after the 2020 lockdowns. However, Apple is superior when it comes to supply chains.</p><p>Even way before the pandemic, Apple was known for its seamless supply chain operations. In 2019, I did my master&#39;s degree focused on supply chains. Tim Cook was a frequent topic of discussion.</p><p>As reported by Supply Chain Digital, it is no surprise that Steve Jobs made Tim Cook his successor. He&#39;s a supply chain guy, responsible for a big part of Apple&#39;s success.</p><blockquote>[...] it was Cook who had ensured Apple’s phenomenal growth by never allowing the supply of its products to be outstripped by demand, even when demand was stratospheric.</blockquote><blockquote>[...] Yet less than a year after Cook joined, Apple was reporting profits. As the visionary Jobs came up with one era-defining product after another, Cook made sure they were always available, and in huge numbers.</blockquote><blockquote>An early Cook ploy was to buy US$100mn of holiday season air freight, months in advance. This cut out competitors, and left them scrambling to ship products during the holiday season.</blockquote><blockquote>But he realised very early in his Apple career that the company’s supply chain was unwieldy, over-complex and unresponsive, and so he moved Apple to a just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing model - a process he had overseen in his time at <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IBM\">IBM</a>.</blockquote><p>It&#39;s good to know there&#39;s an expert in charge (obviously) as Apple is now reconfiguring its supply chain. Apple will reduce its reliance on Asian markets as geopolitical and economic risks have caused an acceleration in supply changes after the pandemic.</p><p>Apple is now looking to source chips in the United States and Europe. As reported by Bloomberg:</p><blockquote>“We’ve already made a decision to be buying out of a plant in Arizona, and this plant in Arizona starts up in ’24, so we’ve got about two years ahead of us on that one, maybe a little less,” Cook told the employees. “And in Europe, I’m sure that we will also source from Europe as those plans become more apparent,” he said at the meeting, which included Apple services chief Eddy Cue and Deirdre O’Brien, its head of retail and human resources.</blockquote><p>In Arizona, Apple will have access to supply from the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM), starting in 2024. Moreover, Intel (INTC) is building plants in Arizona, with a similar timeline. Yet, Apple won&#39;t likely become a customer as it has produced its own chips - as everyone is aware of by now.</p><h2>More Reasons Why Apple Isn&#39;t Selling Off</h2><p>So far, we have a few reasons. Despite imploding consumer sentiment, supply chain issues, and ongoing geopolitical issues (including Zero-COVID), Apple is standing strong. Its margins in FY2022 reached one of the highest levels ever, its iPhone continues to withstand fierce competition, and Apple further improved sales on top of tough comparisons in FY2021. All of this was provided by stellar supply chains.</p><p>When looking at the bigger picture, we see that margins are expected to come down a bit. However, both EBITDA and free cash flow are expected to remain in an uptrend.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8b4eab909778547491aa3fdd03828ff6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"384\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>TIKR.com</p><p>In the current fiscal year (2023), the company is expected to generate $105 billion in free cash flow. This implies a 4.4% free cash flow yield, using its $2,400 billion market cap.</p><p>That&#39;s good news for investors as Apple is on a mission to get rid of its cash load.</p><p>In the September quarter, the company returned $29 billion to shareholders. $3.7 billion was distributed through dividends (sustaining its 0.6% yield). The remaining $25.2 billion was (indirectly) distributed through open market purchases of 160 million AAPL shares. Total distributions were roughly 1.2% of its market cap. On an annualized basis, that&#39;s 4.8%, allowing the company to distribute all of its incoming free cash flow and portions of its existing cash holdings.</p><p>The company ended the quarter with $169 billion in cash and marketable securities. The company repaid $2.8 billion in cash, decreased commercial paper by $1 billion, and issued $5.5 billion in new debt. Gross debt was $120 billion, indicating $49 billion in net cash (negative net debt).</p><p>Apple is looking to become net cash neutral over time, meaning the company will accelerate distributions not just in line with FCF growth, but a bit faster to distribute $49 billion in current net cash.</p><p>As a result, Apple is the only FAANG+ with substantial net share buybacks. None of the others bought back more than 10% of their shares outstanding.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bb56d538436fae8a9b46ba8dcea409c5\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"501\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>That is a huge deal as it artificially boosts earnings per share.</p><p>So, what about the valuation?</p><h2>Valuation</h2><p>Let&#39;s start with the worst news. The implied free cash flow yield isn&#39;t very high. Using LTM FCF, it&#39;s roughly at 5%. While it&#39;s off the lows, it is far below anything the market witnessed prior to global central banks turning accommodative in 2015. As I showed you at the start of this article, inflation expectations came down hard around 2015. It caused investors to apply a different valuation to Apple. Suddenly, a 10% FCF yield was way too high. Now, a 5% FCF yield may be too low, if we assume that inflation is here to stay...</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f58624ab1429d3a7bba3937e94452ba\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>Moreover, Apple is trading at 18.0x NTM EBITDA. That&#39;s based on its $2.4 trillion market cap and FY2023E net cash of $61 billion.</p><p>This valuation is well below its peak, yet not at extremely attractive levels. I believe that a valuation of 15-16x EBITDA is a good place to start buying more shares - or to initiate a position.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b2073abe0c515422a8149c4fb7bdb21c\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>So, let&#39;s summarize this article.</p><h2>Takeaway</h2><p>I went with a somewhat confrontational title. However, I think it&#39;s true. While Apple is down 16% year-to-date, the company has protected its investors against weakness that occurred in other tech stocks. Not only that, but by doing so, investors are still sitting on tremendous gains over the past few years as AAPL did not underperform during the last bull market.</p><p>I also went with this title because I believe that Apple is the best FAANG+ stock going forward. I do not expect the market environment to suddenly turn accommodative of growth stocks. While supply chain issues are easing, above-average inflation is likely to persist. Central banks will continue to be forced to solve this, which could lead to multiple hiking cycles down the road.</p><p>My strategy is to continue buying Apple on any major weakness. While the company may refrain from rallying as it did prior to 2022, we&#39;re dealing with - what I believe - is the best FAANG stock on the market. The company has exceptional supply chain management, products able to withstand tough competition, and allowing the company to use pricing to offset inflationary headwinds.</p><p>On top of that, it has an AA+ balance sheet, allowing management to aggressively buy back shares, boosting EPS at a time when it matters most.</p><p>In summary, AAPL is a tech stock that lets me sleep well at night, knowing I own the best mix between growth and value.</p><p>So, if you&#39;re looking for tech exposure, I believe that AAPL is the way to go. Especially in light of ongoing and expected macroeconomic developments.</p></body></html>","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>Why Apple Is The Only FAANG Stock Worth Buying</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\">\nWhy Apple Is The Only FAANG Stock Worth Buying\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-11-17 10:14 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4558460-why-apple-is-the-only-faang-stock-worth-buying><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryApple is down 16%, yet it's the best FAANG(+) stock on the market, protecting investors against mayhem experienced in other growth stocks.Thanks to its advanced supply chains, successful ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4558460-why-apple-is-the-only-faang-stock-worth-buying\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4558460-why-apple-is-the-only-faang-stock-worth-buying","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2284813867","content_text":"SummaryApple is down 16%, yet it's the best FAANG(+) stock on the market, protecting investors against mayhem experienced in other growth stocks.Thanks to its advanced supply chains, successful products, and healthy balance sheet, Apple has pricing power, high and steady margins, and the ability to buy back shares.While challenges persist, I am convinced that Apple remains the best tech stock to buy on any weakness. I believe that the downside is somewhat limited, with a strong upside.IntroductionTechnically speaking, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) is the only company in my portfolio that is a member of the technology sector. While I tend to disagree with the definition of technology, I thought long and hard before buying technology in 2021. I wanted a company that brings both growth and value to the table. A company that offers a growing dividend and buybacks without giving up on its ability to outperform - after all, I'm not looking to go overweight in high-yield investments. Apple offers all of this. While Apple is struggling this year, it is outperforming every other FAANG stock by a wide margin. This happens despite significant consumer weakness, lower business investments, and the fact that Apple's products are in the highest price range. In this article, I'm going to dive into all of this and explain why I believe that Apple is a go-to stock for investors looking to buy high-quality growth exposure. This includes my strategy going forward, as we need to incorporate way more than Apple's ability to invent great products.So, let's get to it!It's A Scary Business EnvironmentThe little brown area in the chart below displays my technology exposure. While I would make the case that several defense companies (industrials) in my portfolio are way more high-tech than most stocks in the technology sector, it is important to own stocks that perform better in a falling-rate environment. In other words, buying Apple was mainly based on diversification.AuthorThat said, I could have gone with a lot of technology stocks, yet I went with Apple. Going back twelve months, Apple is currently the only stock in positive territory. Note that I included Microsoft (MSFT), NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA), and Amazon (AMZN) as well. After all, FAANG has evolved a bit over the years.Data by YChartsEssentially, I liked the concept behind FAANG (or FAANG+, or FAANGMAN, or whatever you want to use) because it perfectly captured the bull market between the Great Financial Recession and the surge in inflation in 2021.Federal Reserve interest rates were low, inflation was low, global QE programs fueled liquidity, and technological developments were fast. As the chart (from September 2022) below shows, interest rates were highly accommodative between 2009 and 2022. The only exception was the surge in rates after 2016, which allowed value stocks to briefly outperform growth stocks.CME GroupEssentially, accommodative rates mean that Fed policy rates are below long-term inflation expectations. What made the situation in the past decade so attractive is that long-term inflation rates were low - yet Fed rates were even lower.Using the 5-year, 5-year forward inflation chart, which estimates the average inflation rate of the five years starting in five years, we see that estimates were close to 2.4% in the years after the Great Financial Crisis. After 2013, these rates moved lower, with consistent readings below 2%.Federal Reserve Bank of St. LouisThis makes growth stocks so attractive because discounting future growth is way more attractive when inflation expectations are low. After all, if you assume that inflation will accelerate, you probably prefer stocks that already generate high profits.On top of that, central banks provided liquidity, which was more or less forced into FAANG stocks.Yahoo FinanceIn 2021, I bought Apple. Not because I expected this to continue, as I already had shifted to the thesis that value would outperform. I bought Apple for diversification and because I believed that Apple would outperform other growth stocks.My thesis turned out to be correct. Inflation accelerated as a result of supply chain issues, commodity shortages, labor inflation, and fiscal and monetary stimulus of 2020 and 2021. Now, we're in a situation where inflation is still high, causing central banks to reverse everything they did before the crisis. Interest rates are surging, economic growth is suffering, and inflation is still high.While I'm writing this, the market expects the Fed to hike by 50 basis points in December, followed by two 25 basis points hikes in early 2023.CME GroupThe risk is that inflation isn't coming down as fast as the market may expect, causing us to get a scenario comparable to the 1970s and 1980s, where supply-side-driven inflation caused the Fed to initiate a few aggressive hiking cycles. It caused economic growth to fluctuate.Until inflation eased in the early 1980s, stocks went sideways for more than 20 years. I am not saying that this will happen again, however, I believe the risks of a prolonged sideways trend are very high.TradingView (S&P 500)Essentially, this would mean that we need to pour all of our money into (high) dividend-paying stocks. However, I'm only changing my strategy a bit as I will continue to buy growth.I won't buy money-losing growth stocks. I will use the next few years to buy more Apple shares at any opportunity I get, as I want to make this a large position in my portfolio.After all, Apple combines the best of growth and value, causing it to remain the last FAANG standing - by a significant margin.Apple - Resilience When It Matters MostLet's continue with some more bad news. Apple isn't just a tech stock, it is also highly dependent on the health of the consumer. After all, 52% of its $394 billion net sales in FY2022 came from its iPhone (other products also depend on the consumer). Hence, one of the reasons why so many investors have not invested in Apple is the fact that the consumer is in a terrible spot. Using the University of Michigan numbers, the current financial situation of consumers in the United States hasn't been this low since 2010.University of MichiganIn Europe, the situation is even worse due to the energy crisis. In China, we're dealing with ongoing lockdowns (Zero COVID) that keep people from spending as much as they would under normal circumstances. On a side note, despite lockdowns, Apple grew sales by 9% in Greater China in FY2022. That beats European sales by 200 basis points! I expect these sales to rebound when China ends its Zero COVID policy in early 2023 (according to my sources).Hence, now bad headlines are emerging. For example, Apple is now offering rare MacBook deals to accelerate its sales.BloombergAs reported by Bloomberg, the company is offering discounts of as much as 10%. Yet, it only impacts its M1-chip MacBooks.BloombergThis is a measure aimed to boost sales and get rid of excess inventory ahead of MacBook upgrades in the first few months of 2023.That's not everything. Weakness is also hitting the iPhone (as most already expected, given macroeconomic conditions). J.P. Morgan just came out, making the case that sales in the December quarter will decline year-on-year.As reported by Seeking Alpha:Analyst Samik Chatterjee lowered his iPhone 14 estimates by 5M and other iPhone estimates by 3M and now forecasts iPhone and total revenues to decline year-over-year during the period.\"In relation to impact to [fiscal year 2023] estimates overall, the reduction to estimates are more modest as we expect part of the shipment shortfall in the December quarter to be made up in the March quarter, which typically being a lower production quarter will give Apple ample opportunities to recover the shortfall, and on the demand side based on historical precedent we expect limited to modest impact to consumer demand from delays and extended delivery times,\" Chatterjee wrote.I have to say that this news sounds worse than it is. For example, the iPhone has been strong until the December quarter. In its fourth quarter, the company grew iPhone sales by 10%. While this includes pricing, it's on top of 39% revenue growth in the prior-year quarter. That's better news than most give Apple credit for.However, Apple was very reluctant when it comes to predicting what demand may look like - especially with regard to pricing issues and lower-cost competitors.Tim Cook mentioned supply chain issues that kept the company from selling as many iPhones as it would have liked. Moreover, iPhone 14 demand is hard to estimate as Apple has introduced a number of new models (Max, Pro, you name it).However, one of the reasons why I'm not worried about competition is the fact that quality differences are a huge issue when looking for better prices. I've spent the past four weeks figuring out what my new phone is going to be. I can go for a cheap option from a competitor. However, reviews are just terrible. When looking for a quality phone, there really isn't a cheap alternative to the iPhone anymore. Hence, people stay in the Apple ecosystem. Or, even better, people join the ecosystem. I've had more friends and colleagues switch to Apple in the past 12 months than people leaving Apple - including a lot of penny pinchers.Hence, I wasn't surprised that Tim Cook mentioned great results for the iPhone in all key regions:We were really pleased with the broadness of the iPhone strength last quarter. We had three of the top four smartphones in the U.S. and the UK, the top three in Urban China, the top six in Australia, four out of the top five in Germany and the top two in Japan. And customer satisfaction for the iPhone remains very, very strong at 98%.Moreover, in light of high inflation, Apple has maintained strong margins. Apple's operating margin has been consistently above 30.0% in the 2022 calendar year. Microsoft is strong as well. Companies like Netflix (NFLX), Meta (META), and Amazon have a much harder time dealing with inflation. Moreover, in most cases, demand weakness makes this even harder.Data by YChartsThe key here is Apple's supply chain resilience. Like all companies, Apple did feel headwinds from the severe supply shortages (i.e., semiconductors) that started after the 2020 lockdowns. However, Apple is superior when it comes to supply chains.Even way before the pandemic, Apple was known for its seamless supply chain operations. In 2019, I did my master's degree focused on supply chains. Tim Cook was a frequent topic of discussion.As reported by Supply Chain Digital, it is no surprise that Steve Jobs made Tim Cook his successor. He's a supply chain guy, responsible for a big part of Apple's success.[...] it was Cook who had ensured Apple’s phenomenal growth by never allowing the supply of its products to be outstripped by demand, even when demand was stratospheric.[...] Yet less than a year after Cook joined, Apple was reporting profits. As the visionary Jobs came up with one era-defining product after another, Cook made sure they were always available, and in huge numbers.An early Cook ploy was to buy US$100mn of holiday season air freight, months in advance. This cut out competitors, and left them scrambling to ship products during the holiday season.But he realised very early in his Apple career that the company’s supply chain was unwieldy, over-complex and unresponsive, and so he moved Apple to a just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing model - a process he had overseen in his time at IBM.It's good to know there's an expert in charge (obviously) as Apple is now reconfiguring its supply chain. Apple will reduce its reliance on Asian markets as geopolitical and economic risks have caused an acceleration in supply changes after the pandemic.Apple is now looking to source chips in the United States and Europe. As reported by Bloomberg:“We’ve already made a decision to be buying out of a plant in Arizona, and this plant in Arizona starts up in ’24, so we’ve got about two years ahead of us on that one, maybe a little less,” Cook told the employees. “And in Europe, I’m sure that we will also source from Europe as those plans become more apparent,” he said at the meeting, which included Apple services chief Eddy Cue and Deirdre O’Brien, its head of retail and human resources.In Arizona, Apple will have access to supply from the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM), starting in 2024. Moreover, Intel (INTC) is building plants in Arizona, with a similar timeline. Yet, Apple won't likely become a customer as it has produced its own chips - as everyone is aware of by now.More Reasons Why Apple Isn't Selling OffSo far, we have a few reasons. Despite imploding consumer sentiment, supply chain issues, and ongoing geopolitical issues (including Zero-COVID), Apple is standing strong. Its margins in FY2022 reached one of the highest levels ever, its iPhone continues to withstand fierce competition, and Apple further improved sales on top of tough comparisons in FY2021. All of this was provided by stellar supply chains.When looking at the bigger picture, we see that margins are expected to come down a bit. However, both EBITDA and free cash flow are expected to remain in an uptrend.TIKR.comIn the current fiscal year (2023), the company is expected to generate $105 billion in free cash flow. This implies a 4.4% free cash flow yield, using its $2,400 billion market cap.That's good news for investors as Apple is on a mission to get rid of its cash load.In the September quarter, the company returned $29 billion to shareholders. $3.7 billion was distributed through dividends (sustaining its 0.6% yield). The remaining $25.2 billion was (indirectly) distributed through open market purchases of 160 million AAPL shares. Total distributions were roughly 1.2% of its market cap. On an annualized basis, that's 4.8%, allowing the company to distribute all of its incoming free cash flow and portions of its existing cash holdings.The company ended the quarter with $169 billion in cash and marketable securities. The company repaid $2.8 billion in cash, decreased commercial paper by $1 billion, and issued $5.5 billion in new debt. Gross debt was $120 billion, indicating $49 billion in net cash (negative net debt).Apple is looking to become net cash neutral over time, meaning the company will accelerate distributions not just in line with FCF growth, but a bit faster to distribute $49 billion in current net cash.As a result, Apple is the only FAANG+ with substantial net share buybacks. None of the others bought back more than 10% of their shares outstanding.Data by YChartsThat is a huge deal as it artificially boosts earnings per share.So, what about the valuation?ValuationLet's start with the worst news. The implied free cash flow yield isn't very high. Using LTM FCF, it's roughly at 5%. While it's off the lows, it is far below anything the market witnessed prior to global central banks turning accommodative in 2015. As I showed you at the start of this article, inflation expectations came down hard around 2015. It caused investors to apply a different valuation to Apple. Suddenly, a 10% FCF yield was way too high. Now, a 5% FCF yield may be too low, if we assume that inflation is here to stay...Data by YChartsMoreover, Apple is trading at 18.0x NTM EBITDA. That's based on its $2.4 trillion market cap and FY2023E net cash of $61 billion.This valuation is well below its peak, yet not at extremely attractive levels. I believe that a valuation of 15-16x EBITDA is a good place to start buying more shares - or to initiate a position.Data by YChartsSo, let's summarize this article.TakeawayI went with a somewhat confrontational title. However, I think it's true. While Apple is down 16% year-to-date, the company has protected its investors against weakness that occurred in other tech stocks. Not only that, but by doing so, investors are still sitting on tremendous gains over the past few years as AAPL did not underperform during the last bull market.I also went with this title because I believe that Apple is the best FAANG+ stock going forward. I do not expect the market environment to suddenly turn accommodative of growth stocks. While supply chain issues are easing, above-average inflation is likely to persist. Central banks will continue to be forced to solve this, which could lead to multiple hiking cycles down the road.My strategy is to continue buying Apple on any major weakness. While the company may refrain from rallying as it did prior to 2022, we're dealing with - what I believe - is the best FAANG stock on the market. The company has exceptional supply chain management, products able to withstand tough competition, and allowing the company to use pricing to offset inflationary headwinds.On top of that, it has an AA+ balance sheet, allowing management to aggressively buy back shares, boosting EPS at a time when it matters most.In summary, AAPL is a tech stock that lets me sleep well at night, knowing I own the best mix between growth and value.So, if you're looking for tech exposure, I believe that AAPL is the way to go. Especially in light of ongoing and expected macroeconomic developments.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":96,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9001071193,"gmtCreate":1641124551961,"gmtModify":1676533574191,"author":{"id":"3570608563368860","authorId":"3570608563368860","name":"Venture118f","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3887689271b688d92c9bf6299b2a2c56","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570608563368860","authorIdStr":"3570608563368860"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"GM will b on my buying list in 2022 [Cool]&nbsp;[Cool]&nbsp;[What]&nbsp;","listText":"GM will b on my buying list in 2022 [Cool]&nbsp;[Cool]&nbsp;[What]&nbsp;","text":"GM will b on my buying list in 2022 [Cool] [Cool] [What]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9001071193","repostId":"2200441314","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2200441314","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1641085740,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2200441314?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-02 09:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 No-Brainer Stocks Down 27% to 35% to Buy for 2022","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2200441314","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These hot tech stocks might be a steal at these prices.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>While the stock market at large is hitting all-time highs, many technology stocks have been getting hammered in 2021.

Roku</b></p>\n<p>There are worse things than standing in place, and right now Roku is trading slightly lower in 2021. It doesn't seem fair. Roku continues to be the platform of choice for folks streaming from home, with 38% of all smart TVs rolling out with Roku's operating system as the default factory-installed operating system. If you don't happen to buy a Roku-ready TV you can buy a dongle for as little as $20 to $30 that will plug into one of your TV's HDMI ports.</p>\n<p>This is a growing market, and even if viewing hours slipped this summer as we began to venture outside again the long-term trend is undeniable. We love streaming video entertainment from home. Sunday's Emmy Awards is another reminder that the best shows on TV these days are largely on premium streaming services.</p>\n<p>Despite the slight dip in sequential consumption in its latest quarter and the&nbsp;recent challenge&nbsp;of a competitor introducing its own TVs, Roku has never been better. The record 55.1 million active accounts on the platform at the end of June was a 28% increase from where it was a year ago, and like fuboTV we're seeing average revenue per user advance at a double-digit percentage clip. Roku is a worthy leader among&nbsp;streaming service stocks. The stock taking a small step back in 2021 at a time when the fundamentals continue to move forward makes this a strong candidate to take off once the dust settles.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Got $1,000?

The first one is a surprising winner in 2021. The other two are surprising laggards. Even though $1,000 will buy you just a couple of shares in some of these names, let's get into why I see these as growth stocks that are about to take off.\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\n1. Crocs\nIf you haven't been following Crocs lately you may be surprised at how well the stock has been doing. The maker of hole-filled resin shoes has more than doubled in 2021, nearly quadrupling since the start of last year.\nCrocs has had its ups and downs over the years, but it's clearly on an upswing now. The revival started in 2017 when a new CEO came in just as the maker of unique footwear was posting its third straight year of declining sales. Revenue growth turned slightly positive in 2018 with a 6% increase, followed by back-to-back years of 13% top-line upticks. This year Crocs is running on an entirely different level.\nBack in February Crocs was targeting 20% to 25% revenue gains for all of 2021, a great achievement as it would be nearly doubling its growth from the prior year. In late April the guidance was bumped to 40% to 50% in top-line growth, and this summer it got boosted again. Crocs now sees a 60% to 65% increase in revenue in 2021.\nThe pandemic made us appreciate Crocs again. We chose comfort over fashion during the shelter-in-place phase of the pandemic. Now that we're out and about again we're not giving up our Crocs. We're seeing celebrities strutting in Crocs at media events and out in the wild. Crocs are showing up in movies like this summer's Suicide Squad. The stock may have hit an all-time high last week, but with a lot of people still skeptical on the turnaround the bullish argument here is that the rally is just beginning.\n2. fuboTV\nWhen you size up the IPO class of 2020, fuboTV should be the teacher's pet. Some debutantes appear to be peaking just before their stock offerings, but the live TV streaming service is stepping on the gas. Let's just go over the top-line performance in fuboTV's first four quarters as a public company.\n\nQ3 2020: 71% revenue growth.\nQ4 2020: 98% revenue growth.\nQ1 2021: 135% revenue growth.\nQ2 2021: 196% revenue growth.\n\nA 138% increase in subscribers over the past year coupled with a 30% pop in average revenue per user is why fuboTV's revenue has nearly tripled. The near-term outlook is even more exciting. As a sports-minded streaming service -- with more than three dozen of its over 100 channels dedicated to live sporting events -- it knows its audience. It introduced free-to-play predictive games and live layered stats this summer, and it expects to roll out a sportsbook to allow viewers to place cash bets on the games they're watching before the end of the year.\nDespite the perpetual improvement at fuboTV the stock is roughly where it was when the year began. With sports season heating up, fuboTV's engaged audience will help it win this game.\n3. Roku\nThere are worse things than standing in place, and right now Roku is trading slightly lower in 2021. It doesn't seem fair. Roku continues to be the platform of choice for folks streaming from home, with 38% of all smart TVs rolling out with Roku's operating system as the default factory-installed operating system. If you don't happen to buy a Roku-ready TV you can buy a dongle for as little as $20 to $30 that will plug into one of your TV's HDMI ports.\nThis is a growing market, and even if viewing hours slipped this summer as we began to venture outside again the long-term trend is undeniable. We love streaming video entertainment from home. Sunday's Emmy Awards is another reminder that the best shows on TV these days are largely on premium streaming services.\nDespite the slight dip in sequential consumption in its latest quarter and the recent challenge of a competitor introducing its own TVs, Roku has never been better. The record 55.1 million active accounts on the platform at the end of June was a 28% increase from where it was a year ago, and like fuboTV we're seeing average revenue per user advance at a double-digit percentage clip.

Shares are down more than 5% at the time of writing as investors continue to digest the Chinese EV maker’s prospects.</p><p>Many investors are already aware of the myriad of issues plaguing this stock of late. The company’s been hit withdeteriorating U.S.-China relations, and more recently,delisting threats. The globalchip shortageaffecting all EV stocks is still at play, providing additional downside momentum in recent weeks.</p><p>However, today, a couple of additional headwinds materialized. Let’s dive into what’s driving NIO stock lower today.</p><p><b>BYD, Competitors Threatening NIO Stock</b></p><p>On Tuesday, Warren Buffett-backed Chinese Automaker&nbsp;<b>BYD Company</b>(OTCMKTS:<b><u>BYDDF</u></b>)announcedit had delivered more than twice as many electric cars as Nio in March.</p><p>The race to capture market share in the fast-growing Chinese market is on. And right now, it appears Nio is losing ground to competitors.</p><p>Nio’s March deliveries of 7,257 cars didbeat analyst expectations. However, Nio isn’t the only game in town, and investors seem to be assessing how the market share of each competitor will ultimately shape up.</p><p>BYD and&nbsp;<b>Xpeng</b>(NYSE:<b><u>XPEV</u></b>) combined to produce roughly three times as many cars as Nio. An approximate 25% market share compared to its top two competitors isn’t bad, but it isn’t great either. Accordingly, it appears the jury’s still out on which company will be the longer-term market leader in China.</p><p><b>Q2 Production Headwinds an Issue</b></p><p>Recentcommentsby Nio’s founder and CEO William Li have provided another cause for concern for investors in NIO stock.</p><p>This time, the issue is once again with a global chip shortage.

Shares are down more than 5% at the time of writing as investors continue to digest the Chinese EV maker’s prospects.Many investors are already aware of the myriad of issues plaguing this stock of late. The company’s been hit withdeteriorating U.S.-China relations, and more recently,delisting threats. The globalchip shortageaffecting all EV stocks is still at play, providing additional downside momentum in recent weeks.However, today, a couple of additional headwinds materialized. Let’s dive into what’s driving NIO stock lower today.BYD, Competitors Threatening NIO StockOn Tuesday, Warren Buffett-backed Chinese Automaker BYD Company(OTCMKTS:BYDDF)announcedit had delivered more than twice as many electric cars as Nio in March.The race to capture market share in the fast-growing Chinese market is on. And right now, it appears Nio is losing ground to competitors.Nio’s March deliveries of 7,257 cars didbeat analyst expectations. However, Nio isn’t the only game in town, and investors seem to be assessing how the market share of each competitor will ultimately shape up.BYD and Xpeng(NYSE:XPEV) combined to produce roughly three times as many cars as Nio. An approximate 25% market share compared to its top two competitors isn’t bad, but it isn’t great either. Accordingly, it appears the jury’s still out on which company will be the longer-term market leader in China.Q2 Production Headwinds an IssueRecentcommentsby Nio’s founder and CEO William Li have provided another cause for concern for investors in NIO stock.This time, the issue is once again with a global chip shortage. Li said:“We still face difficulties in achieving our production goal — the issue (of chip shortage) remains tough in the second quarter, but it will affect our production only in the near term.”Concerns are that the global chip shortage could result in Nio missing its production targets. Given how much growth is priced into EV stocks, that’s not a good thing. The company’s target of assembling 7,500 cars in Q2 appears to be at risk, and investors are pricing this risk into NIO stock today.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":203,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3572249185724220","authorId":"3572249185724220","name":"xoxoll","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8ed65c2962af2a6fbd414f4d6fe9e378","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3572249185724220","authorIdStr":"3572249185724220"},"content":"Like

introduces limited measures to tackle gun violence in the US\nPresident Joe Biden and his Attorney-General Merrick Garland announced limited measures to tackle gun violence in the United States on Thursday in what the White House described as a first step to curb mass shootings, community bloodshed and suicides.\nThe new measures include plans for the Justice Department to crack down on self-assembled “ghost guns” and make “stabilising braces” - which effectively turn pistols into rifles – subject to registration under the National Firearms Act.\nBiden said he will ask the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to release an annual report on firearms trafficking in the United States, and make it easier for states to adopt “red flag” laws that aim to prevent individuals deemed to present a danger to themselves or others from owning guns.\nBiden also outlined more ambitious goals that he needs the support of Congress to accomplish, including reintroducing a ban on assault weapons, lifting an exemption on lawsuits against gun manufacturers, and passing a nationwide red flag law.\nEx-NFL player kills five people, then turns gun on himself\nA former professional football player shot and killed a prominent South Carolina doctor, his wife, two grandchildren and another man before taking his own life at his home a short distance away, authorities said on Thursday.\nPhillip Adams, 32, who left the National Football League more than five years ago, was found dead hours after the killings of five people on Wednesday at the home of Dr Robert Lesslie in suburban Rock Hill, South Carolina, York County Sheriff Kevin Tolson said.\nInvestigators were at a loss to offer a motive for the shooting spree that broke out in the quiet community about 48km south of Charlotte, North Carolina.\nAmazon unionisation drive losing by 2-1 margin in early vote results\nAmazon union vote count set to begin\nAn early tally on Thursday of votes in Amazon.com’s closely watched union election in Alabama showed workers voting against forming the first union in the United States by more than a 2-1 margin.\nOf the 3,215 ballots received, at least 600 votes were against unionising and more than 250 votes were for the Bessemer, Alabama, warehouse to form a union.\nThe National Labour Relations Board (NLRB), the agency overseeing the election, held a video call and set up multiple cameras so participants and media could watch its regulators count the votes.\nSony, Netflix agree deal to stream new Spider-Man, other films\nNetflix, Sony ink deal on streaming blockbusters\nStreaming service Netflix reached a deal to offer new Spider-Man movies and other films from Sony Pictures to US customers after they play in theatres, the companies said on Thursday.\nThe five-year arrangement will begin with the 2022 slate of movies, which is scheduled to include Marvel film Morbius, best-selling book adaptation Where The Crawdads Sing and Brad Pitt thriller Bullet Train.\nFuture releases are expected to include new installments in the Spider-Man, Venom, Jumanji and Bad Boys franchises.\nGolf: Defending Masters champion Johnson five back after poor finish\nA wild finish left Dustin Johnson five shots behind the leaders on Thursday as the defending Masters champion faced much fiercer conditions at Augusta National compared to the toothless layout he triumphed on five months ago.\nThis Masters has a much more familiar look as it is back in its traditional April slot as the year’s first major while fans were welcomed back, albeit in limited numbers and with protocols in place to reduce the risk of Covid-19 transmission.\nJapan’s Hideki Matsuyama, bolstered by an eagle at the par-five eighth, and Brian Harman fired three-under-par 69s to share the first-round clubhouse lead.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":170,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":348257232,"gmtCreate":1617934520026,"gmtModify":1704705006406,"author":{"id":"3570608563368860","authorId":"3570608563368860","name":"Venture118f","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3887689271b688d92c9bf6299b2a2c56","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570608563368860","authorIdStr":"3570608563368860"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Heng
