Discussing the daily trading volumes of bitcoin, JPM notes that a large fraction of Bitcoin are locked up in illiquid entities (liquidity sinks),<b>\"with more than 90% not changing hands in more than a year\" while roughly 80% - and rising - are held by wallets with light turnover.&nbsp; This means that a paltry 5-10% of all bitcoin in circulation has traded in the past year.</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ce30e31759284bfbf1d8923cb4149bfc\" tg-width=\"725\" tg-height=\"534\"></p>\n<p>Another way of putting it:<b>an asset with a $600 billion market cap has a float of just $30 billion.</b>Which is remarkable as it means that<b>no whales</b>sold bitcoin when it hit its all time high of $65,000.<b>And if they didn't sell then, they certainly won't sell now when it's half that price.</b></p>\n<p>This, more than anything else, explains why bitcoin - an asset whose market cap was more than a $1 trillion as recently as April - is so extremely volatile: with the vast majority of bitcoin locked up or held by whale accounts who rarely if ever trade, the marginal price setter of bitcoin are odd lots - a burst of trading in fractions of a bitcoin, where the momentum in many cases is ignited and magnified by HFTs who then shape the movement of the crypto in hopes of hitting the max pain stop loss positions for other cryptos, and where as a result of such a unique trading environment, the price of bitcoin can swing 10%, 15% , or even 20% or more every day.</p>\n<p>The question we have is during liquidation pukes like the one observed recently, how much of the newly released bitcoin are gobbled up by existing or new whales. Judging by the gray line in the chart above, the answer is a record amount.</p>\n<p>Which means that we are now in the<i>\"weak hands\" shake out and whale accumulation</i>phase. And once the new generation of whales has bought enough, that's when the next squeeze higher will take place, sending the crypto currency and its peers to fresh all time highs. Because if there is one thing that is very easy to do with an asset whose float is as low as bitcoin's, it is to manipulate it as a handful of big players want.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Discussing the daily trading volumes of bitcoin, JPM notes that a large fraction of Bitcoin are locked up in illiquid entities (liquidity sinks),\"with more than 90% not changing hands in more than a year\" while roughly 80% - and rising - are held by wallets with light turnover.  This means that a paltry 5-10% of all bitcoin in circulation has traded in the past year.\n\nAnother way of putting it:an asset with a $600 billion market cap has a float of just $30 billion.Which is remarkable as it means thatno whalessold bitcoin when it hit its all time high of $65,000.And if they didn't sell then, they certainly won't sell now when it's half that price.\nThis, more than anything else, explains why bitcoin - an asset whose market cap was more than a $1 trillion as recently as April - is so extremely volatile: with the vast majority of bitcoin locked up or held by whale accounts who rarely if ever trade, the marginal price setter of bitcoin are odd lots - a burst of trading in fractions of a bitcoin, where the momentum in many cases is ignited and magnified by HFTs who then shape the movement of the crypto in hopes of hitting the max pain stop loss positions for other cryptos, and where as a result of such a unique trading environment, the price of bitcoin can swing 10%, 15% , or even 20% or more every day.\nThe question we have is during liquidation pukes like the one observed recently, how much of the newly released bitcoin are gobbled up by existing or new whales. Judging by the gray line in the chart above, the answer is a record amount.\nWhich means that we are now in the\"weak hands\" shake out and whale accumulationphase. And once the new generation of whales has bought enough, that's when the next squeeze higher will take place, sending the crypto currency and its peers to fresh all time highs. Because if there is one thing that is very easy to do with an asset whose float is as low as bitcoin's, it is to manipulate it as a handful of big players want.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":320,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":148062243,"gmtCreate":1625902345482,"gmtModify":1703750745756,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/148062243","repostId":"2150306047","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":372,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187382995,"gmtCreate":1623741389317,"gmtModify":1704210094621,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187382995","repostId":"2143973689","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":314,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187386541,"gmtCreate":1623741375783,"gmtModify":1704210093970,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow&nbsp;","listText":"Wow&nbsp;","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187386541","repostId":"1183190766","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1183190766","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623740790,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1183190766?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-15 15:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Big-Tech & Bitcoin Pumped As Banks, Bonds, & Bullion Dumped","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1183190766","media":"zerohedge","summary":"Big-tech was bid as soon as the cash market opened and both Small Caps (Russell 2000) and Big-Caps (","content":"<p>Big-tech was bid as soon as the cash market opened and both Small Caps (Russell 2000) and Big-Caps (Dow Industrials) were dumped with the S&amp;P under water most of the day until the late day panic-bid hit as the<b>gamma-meltup struck</b>...</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a7b2e9a8b272b493af999d0ceae800b8\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"293\">That's a record close for the S&amp;P and Nasdaq thanks to this utterly ridiculous meltup...</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8111401f1c57064e42f7db7836fc08f4\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"283\">The Nasdaq's outperformance pushed it to its highest relative to The Dow since April...</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/58a5974b095ffdd321cc0542d8e79f9c\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"270\"><i>Source: Bloomberg</i></p>\n<p>Lordstown Motors was clubbed like a baby seal today as its CEO/CFO abandoned ship...</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/25e0168b578ceffd190a198be1dc12fc\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"305\">Retail traders were back buying today...</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/23530164a0be04b223851688d160207d\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"270\"><i>Source: Bloomberg</i></p>\n<p>Elon Musk's ability to influence crypto is as evident as ever as he tweeted that he is not full of FUD and bitcoin ripped over 10% higher (helped by PTJ's positive perspective on crypto in an inflationary environment)...</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e08afe4b38b0f2ae3f7156be3ebfd3b2\" tg-width=\"500\" tg-height=\"273\"><i>Source: Bloomberg</i></p>\n<p>JPM's Dimon spooked bank stocks even further -

What everybody wants to know is whether the panel finally has gotten around to talking about talking about moving away from its ubereasy monetary policy.</p>\n<p>We all know that the FOMC won’t take any substantive steps in terms of its massive securities purchases, which are still running at $120 billion a month. As for its key federal-funds rate target, that’s stuck at 0% to 0.25% (although there’s an outside chance of technical tweaking of some other Fed-administered rates to address the billions in excess cash sloshing around in the money markets).</p>\n<p>We’ll be looking for what’s in the FOMC’s formal policy statement and the panel’s updated Summary of Economic Projections, which will include the amalgam of the committee members’ guesses on key economic gauges, such as gross domestic product, inflation, and unemployment. Most likely, when that is posted&nbsp;on the Fed’s website&nbsp;at 2 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Wednesday, most folks will probably head straight for the FOMC’s guesses on the fed-funds rate, and specifically when liftoff from near-zero is finally expected.</p>\n<p>The “dot plot”—or graph of the FOMC members’ consensus guesses—puts the first hike all the way out past 2023. That seems a very long-term forecast, and as John Maynard Keynes famously pointed out, in the long run we’re all dead. Some Fed watchers, such as J.P. Morgan’s chief U.S. economist, Michael Feroli, look for the dots to show a 2023 liftoff.</p>\n<p>The markets, however, already had been pricing in one or more fed-funds rate hikes by 2023. But concurrent with the previously discussed slide in longer-term bond yields, the interest-rate futures markets have effectively priced out one of those short-term rate increases. In addition, the derivatives market now sees the fed-funds rate peaking under 2%, some 0.4 of a percentage point lower than what it had priced in earlier this year, according to analysts for&nbsp;Natixis.</p>\n<p>Long before making any rate hikes, the Fed will begin to lessen its accommodation by slowing its current pace of securities purchases, which consist of $80 billion of Treasuries and $40 billion of agency mortgage-backed securities every month. The trillions that the Federal Reserve and other central banks have created have gone a long way to boost the values of assets, which rose by $5 trillion, to $136.9 trillion, in the first quarter, according to new Fed data released this past week.

What everybody wants to know is whether the panel finally has gotten around to talking about talking about moving away from its ubereasy monetary policy.\nWe all know that the FOMC won’t take any substantive steps in terms of its massive securities purchases, which are still running at $120 billion a month. As for its key federal-funds rate target, that’s stuck at 0% to 0.25% (although there’s an outside chance of technical tweaking of some other Fed-administered rates to address the billions in excess cash sloshing around in the money markets).\nWe’ll be looking for what’s in the FOMC’s formal policy statement and the panel’s updated Summary of Economic Projections, which will include the amalgam of the committee members’ guesses on key economic gauges, such as gross domestic product, inflation, and unemployment. Most likely, when that is posted on the Fed’s website at 2 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Wednesday, most folks will probably head straight for the FOMC’s guesses on the fed-funds rate, and specifically when liftoff from near-zero is finally expected.\nThe “dot plot”—or graph of the FOMC members’ consensus guesses—puts the first hike all the way out past 2023. That seems a very long-term forecast, and as John Maynard Keynes famously pointed out, in the long run we’re all dead. Some Fed watchers, such as J.P. Morgan’s chief U.S. economist, Michael Feroli, look for the dots to show a 2023 liftoff.\nThe markets, however, already had been pricing in one or more fed-funds rate hikes by 2023. But concurrent with the previously discussed slide in longer-term bond yields, the interest-rate futures markets have effectively priced out one of those short-term rate increases. In addition, the derivatives market now sees the fed-funds rate peaking under 2%, some 0.4 of a percentage point lower than what it had priced in earlier this year, according to analysts for Natixis.\nLong before making any rate hikes, the Fed will begin to lessen its accommodation by slowing its current pace of securities purchases, which consist of $80 billion of Treasuries and $40 billion of agency mortgage-backed securities every month. The trillions that the Federal Reserve and other central banks have created have gone a long way to boost the values of assets, which rose by $5 trillion, to $136.9 trillion, in the first quarter, according to new Fed data released this past week. That includes a $3.2 trillion rise in the value of equities owned by households and a $968 billion rise in their real estate holdings.\nThe key criterion for reduced Fed accommodation is whether the monetary authorities see “substantial further progress” toward reaching what they deem as maximum employment, probably a deliberately ambiguous standard.\nBut the increase in payrolls appears to be constrained as much by the supply of labor as businesses’ desire to hire. The latest Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, or Jolts, showed a record 9.3 million unfilled openings in April. In addition, 384,000 people left their positions that month, bringing the total of voluntary job quitters to a record four million.\nAnecdotal evidence, including some in the Fed’s beige book summary of economic conditions prepared for the coming meeting, suggests that employers aren’t finding enough workers because of generous unemployment compensation. Unusual for a social science such as economics, there will be a real-time experiment to test this hypothesis as 25 states end the extra $300 weekly payment early.\nJefferies economists Aneta Markowska and Thomas Simons write in a research note that these 25 states account for about a quarter of all the unemployed workers.

Investors are awaiting earnings results from Cheetah Mobile and Azure Power Global.\nThe University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index for June is scheduled for release at 10:00 a.m. ET. The consumer sentiment index dropped over 5 points to 82.9 in May due to rising inflation expectations. Analysts, however, expect June's preliminary reading to rise slightly to 84.\nAt 7:58 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were up 73 points, or 0.21%, S&P 500 e-minis were up 6.5 points, or 0.15%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 28 points, or 0.20%.\nMeme stocks were getting some relief early Friday after hitting a wall Thursday. Shares of GameStop, which tanked 27% on Thursday, rose 6% in the premarket. GameStop investors seemed to be running for the exits Thursday, one day after the video game retailer announced the appointments of two former Amazon executives as CEO and CFO and said it may sell as many as 5 million additional shares to raise money. GameStop — off about 50% from its $483 per share all-time high in January — remained up nearly 1,100% in 2021. Last week's big winner, AMC Entertainment, rose 4% in Friday's premarket after closing down 13% on Thursday. The stock — down more than 40% from last week's all-time high of $72.62 — was still up 1,900% this year.\nStocks making the biggest moves in the premarket: Snowflake, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Chewy & more\n1) Snowflake(SNOW) – Snowflake shares fell 3.7% in premarket trading, following the cloud computing company’s presentation of financial targets at its Investor Day meeting. Snowflake set a target of reaching $10 billion in annual product revenue by 2029, compared to $554 million in its fiscal year that ended in January.\n2) Vertex Pharmaceuticals(VRTX) – The drugmaker halted development of an experimental drug designed to treat a rare genetic disease called AAT Deficiency. Vertex said the drug raised levels of a deficient protein, but not enough to provide a substantial benefit. Vertex plunged 13.9% in the premarket.\n3) Chewy(CHWY) – Chewy earned 9 cents per share for its latest quarter, compared to consensus forecasts for a 3 cents per share loss. The pet products retailer's revenue also beat estimates and gave an upbeat revenue outlook. Chewy also warned of labor shortages and supply chain issues that are impacting product availability.\n4) Dave & Buster's(PLAY) – Dave & Buster's reported a surprise profit for its first quarter, with earnings of 40 cents per share. Analysts had predicted a loss of 16 cents per share for the restaurant chain. Dave & Buster's said the recovery in its business has continued through the first part of the current quarter, and its shares jumped 5.5% in premarket action.\n5) Royal Caribbean(RCL) – Royal Caribbean’s Celebrity line said two passengers aboard its Millennium cruise shiptested positive for Covid-19.

You need earnings power,” Hosseini says, noting that the company trades at a significant premium to theS&amp;P 500 index.He has a price target of $85, putting him far outside the consensus. Wall Street’s average price target on TSMC is $141.</p>\n<p>Analysts, on average, expect TSMC’s earnings to increase 14% to $4.06 a share this year, and 16% to $4.69 a share next year, with revenue growing 16% to $55.8 billion this year, and another 16% next year.</p>\n<p><b>Chips on the Table</b></p>\n<p>Shares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing have returned an annual average of 25% over the last decade.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5615dee32fa47048e8747447b01257c9\" tg-width=\"663\" tg-height=\"272\"></p>\n<p>In April, TSMC CEO C.C. Wei told investors of a structural increase in demand, with megatrends around 5G and high-performance computing applications fueling strong demand for several years to come.</p>\n<p>Even so, Wall Street’s estimates may be too optimistic, says Laura Geritz, CEO of Rondure Global Advisors, which owns TSMC shares. She notes that growth at the company was boosted last year as quarantined families loaded up on PCs, gadgets, gaming consoles, and home appliances, all of which require more and more chips.</p>\n<p>Those buying patterns could quickly change as the pandemic eases and central banks begin to taper their support of the economy.</p>\n<p>“I think you will get a better shot,” Geritz says of buying TSMC stock. “It’s expensive when you strip away what could be fiscal and stay-at-home economics.”</p>\n<p>One of the reasons that investors are drawn to TSMC is its deep and impressive list of customers. But that advantage is becoming increasingly costly to maintain as companies—and governments—push for more geographically diverse supply chains.</p>\n<p>In the U.S., the Senate just passed a sweeping $250 billion China package that includes funding and incentives for producing more chips closer to home, along with calls for increased funding of research and development more broadly to help the U.S. maintain its technological edge against China.</p>\n<p>The Biden administration just completed a supply-chain review of critical materials—such as chips—and is pushing to spur more production at home and make the U.S. less vulnerable to global supply-chain disruptions.</p>\n<p>The industry is already reacting. Intel recently unveiled plans to spend $20 billion on two new manufacturing plants in Arizona, whileSamsung Electronics(005930.Korea) plans to invest $116 billion over the next decade, which includes a new chip factory in the U.S. Meanwhile, TSMC has said it plans to invest $100 billion over the next three years—including building two new factories of its own in Arizona.</p>\n<p>The companies’ increased spending is probably required to maintain a competitive edge, and the expenditure could address some of the Biden administration concerns by moving some production back to the U.S.</p>\n<p>In the near term, though, the spending creates financial risk. Longtime TSMC investor Andrew Foster earlier this year sold the TSMC stake he held in his $2.1 billionSeafarer Overseas Growth and Incomefund (SFGIX). He cites concerns about the company’s increased capital expenditure and its potential impact on free cash flow and the dividend, which has a yield of 1.8%.</p>\n<p>Current valuations don’t account for those risks, according to Foster, who says he may reconsider if the stock gets cheaper.</p>\n<p>In an email, TSMC representative Nina Kao said the company’s investment in Arizona is intended to support customers’ long-term capacity needs and isn’t related to political pressure. The company, Kao added, is confident that the Arizona factory will be profitable.</p>\n<p>The biggest risk to TSMC shares is China. The country is intent on unification, and tensions have escalated with China increasing military activity in the South China Sea region. Friction is likely to intensify: The U.S. has said it willsoon hold investment and trade talks with Taiwan,as the administration looks to strengthen Taipei.</p>\n<p>While policy watchers don’t see an armed conflict on the horizon, therisk of an accident is rising as military activity mounts. How to quantify TSMC’s China risk keeps money managers up at night. They say that a military conflict between China and Taiwan is an all-bets-are-off event that would rattle entire markets, not just TSMC stock.</p>\n<p>TSMC declined to comment on politics beyond stating that it was a “law-abiding company” focused on serving its customers.</p>\n<p>The risks don’t change the fact that semiconductors have never been more important.</p>\n<p>“Valuations in quality growth names such as TSMC have clearly gone up, in part because demand for semiconductors is elevated, while at the same time there is quite a serious shortage of them,” says Martin Lau, managing partner at $37 billion FSSA Investment Managers, which is focused on Asia-Pacific and emerging market strategies.</p>\n<p>And yet, “cyclically, this is not the best time to buy TSMC, and the near-term margin of safety has fallen,” he adds. “We remain positive in the longer term.”</p>\n<p>Investors just have to pick the right entry point.</p>","source":"lsy1610680873436","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>Taiwan Semiconductor Is the World’s Most Important Chip Maker.

Wall Street’s average price target on TSMC is $141.\nAnalysts, on average, expect TSMC’s earnings to increase 14% to $4.06 a share this year, and 16% to $4.69 a share next year, with revenue growing 16% to $55.8 billion this year, and another 16% next year.\nChips on the Table\nShares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing have returned an annual average of 25% over the last decade.\n\nIn April, TSMC CEO C.C. Wei told investors of a structural increase in demand, with megatrends around 5G and high-performance computing applications fueling strong demand for several years to come.\nEven so, Wall Street’s estimates may be too optimistic, says Laura Geritz, CEO of Rondure Global Advisors, which owns TSMC shares. She notes that growth at the company was boosted last year as quarantined families loaded up on PCs, gadgets, gaming consoles, and home appliances, all of which require more and more chips.\nThose buying patterns could quickly change as the pandemic eases and central banks begin to taper their support of the economy.\n“I think you will get a better shot,” Geritz says of buying TSMC stock. “It’s expensive when you strip away what could be fiscal and stay-at-home economics.”\nOne of the reasons that investors are drawn to TSMC is its deep and impressive list of customers. But that advantage is becoming increasingly costly to maintain as companies—and governments—push for more geographically diverse supply chains.\nIn the U.S., the Senate just passed a sweeping $250 billion China package that includes funding and incentives for producing more chips closer to home, along with calls for increased funding of research and development more broadly to help the U.S. maintain its technological edge against China.\nThe Biden administration just completed a supply-chain review of critical materials—such as chips—and is pushing to spur more production at home and make the U.S. less vulnerable to global supply-chain disruptions.\nThe industry is already reacting. Intel recently unveiled plans to spend $20 billion on two new manufacturing plants in Arizona, whileSamsung Electronics(005930.Korea) plans to invest $116 billion over the next decade, which includes a new chip factory in the U.S. Meanwhile, TSMC has said it plans to invest $100 billion over the next three years—including building two new factories of its own in Arizona.\nThe companies’ increased spending is probably required to maintain a competitive edge, and the expenditure could address some of the Biden administration concerns by moving some production back to the U.S.\nIn the near term, though, the spending creates financial risk. Longtime TSMC investor Andrew Foster earlier this year sold the TSMC stake he held in his $2.1 billionSeafarer Overseas Growth and Incomefund (SFGIX). He cites concerns about the company’s increased capital expenditure and its potential impact on free cash flow and the dividend, which has a yield of 1.8%.\nCurrent valuations don’t account for those risks, according to Foster, who says he may reconsider if the stock gets cheaper.\nIn an email, TSMC representative Nina Kao said the company’s investment in Arizona is intended to support customers’ long-term capacity needs and isn’t related to political pressure. The company, Kao added, is confident that the Arizona factory will be profitable.\nThe biggest risk to TSMC shares is China. The country is intent on unification, and tensions have escalated with China increasing military activity in the South China Sea region. Friction is likely to intensify: The U.S. has said it willsoon hold investment and trade talks with Taiwan,as the administration looks to strengthen Taipei.\nWhile policy watchers don’t see an armed conflict on the horizon, therisk of an accident is rising as military activity mounts. How to quantify TSMC’s China risk keeps money managers up at night. They say that a military conflict between China and Taiwan is an all-bets-are-off event that would rattle entire markets, not just TSMC stock.\nTSMC declined to comment on politics beyond stating that it was a “law-abiding company” focused on serving its customers.\nThe risks don’t change the fact that semiconductors have never been more important.\n“Valuations in quality growth names such as TSMC have clearly gone up, in part because demand for semiconductors is elevated, while at the same time there is quite a serious shortage of them,” says Martin Lau, managing partner at $37 billion FSSA Investment Managers, which is focused on Asia-Pacific and emerging market strategies.\nAnd yet, “cyclically, this is not the best time to buy TSMC, and the near-term margin of safety has fallen,” he adds. “We remain positive in the longer term.”\nInvestors just have to pick the right entry point.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":46,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":186546202,"gmtCreate":1623514328206,"gmtModify":1704205384193,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Post","listText":"Post","text":"Post","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/186546202","repostId":"2142204650","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":27,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":186541702,"gmtCreate":1623514223506,"gmtModify":1704205381762,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/186541702","repostId":"2142020213","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":54,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":186541839,"gmtCreate":1623514208321,"gmtModify":1704205381278,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Post for like","listText":"Post for like","text":"Post for like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/186541839","repostId":"2142202355","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2142202355","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1623452280,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2142202355?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-12 06:58","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"10-year Treasury yield logs biggest weekly slide in a year ahead of Fed meeting","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2142202355","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Long-dated U.S. government debt traded mixed on Friday, but benchmark bond yields saw a big weekly s","content":"<p>Long-dated U.S. government debt traded mixed on Friday, but benchmark bond yields saw a big weekly slump, with the 10-year note yield falling the most in about a year, as fixed-income investors saw recent inflation data supporting the thesis that rising prices will prove a temporary phenomenon.</p>\n<p>A number of other factors were also contributing to taking yields lower, including demand by banks and money-market funds, as well as short-covering by traders who expected yields to rise with inflation, analysts said.</p>\n<p><b>How Treasurys are performing</b></p>\n<p>On Thursday , the 10-year Treasury hit its lowest yield since March 2, while the long bond held at its lows not seen since Feb. 19, according to Dow Jones Market Data.</p>\n<p>For the week, the 10-year is down 9.7 basis points, for its steepest weekly slide since June 12, 2020;

One way to share in his success is to invest in his firm,<b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>(BRKB). Berkshire stock is near a buy zone, but is it a good buy for you now? Let's take a close look at the fundamental and technical performance of the ultimate Warren Buffett stock.</p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway is a conglomerate that owns some of America's most famous firms. It wholly owns the likes of Geico, Duracell, Dairy Queen, Fruit of the Loom and railroad operator BNSF.</p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway is perhaps more famous for serving as an investment vehicle for Warren Buffett and his top lieutenant, Charlie Munger. Following their value investing philosophy,the company owns huge stakesin&nbsp;<b>American Express</b>(AXP),&nbsp;<b>Coca-Cola</b>(KO) and other heavy hitters.</p>\n<p>But the definition of a Warren Buffett stock has evolved in recent years.&nbsp;Warren Buffett became a big investor in airlines such as<b>Delta Air Lines</b>(DAL). But he was left to rue his decision to go against his own long-held views about that industry's lack of profitability.

Analysts are projecting annual earnings will rise 18% 2021, and by 10% in 2022.</p>\n<p>Warren Buffett Recommendation</p>\n<p>Berkshire stock has lagged the S&amp;P 500 index since the end of 2018. Before that, BRKB stock at best moved with the market for a decade. An investor could have bought an index fund or ETF like the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY), and generated similar or higher returns with less stock-specific risk.</p>\n<p>\"In my view, for most people, the best thing to do is owning the S&amp;P 500 index fund, Buffett himself previously said at a Berkshire annual meeting. \"If you bet on America and sustain that position for decades, you'd do far better than buying Treasury securities, or far better than following people. Perhaps with a bias, I don't believe anyone knows what the market is going to do tomorrow, next week, next month, next year.\"</p>\n<p>But given how BRKB stock is outperforming the S&amp;P 500 so far this year, it could finally be set for a period of outperformance.</p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway Earnings Improve</p>\n<p>The firm's famed $281.2 billion stock portfolio helped lift Berkshire's net income 23% to $35.8 billion in Q4.</p>\n<p>Excluding some of the investments, operating earnings rose to $5 billion from $4.4 billion a year ago.</p>\n<p>BRKB earnings per share powered back following the two previous quarters of decline, coming in above analyst views. They rose 19% to $2.15.</p>\n<p>Buffett's Cash Mountain Still Mighty</p>\n<p>Berkshire's cash pile dipped to $138.3 billion in Q4 from $145.7 billion in Q3. Still, in recent years the amount of available funds had swelled to record levels, raising expectations that Buffett would make a big acquisition.</p>\n<p>Having such a large supply of cash protects the Warren Buffett stock during tough times. It also mean Berkshire Hathaway is able to deploy capital when desirable businesses become available for purchase.</p>\n<p>The more aggressive buying of Berkshire's own shares last year contrasts with Buffett's deals during and after the Great Recession, indicating that the latest economic downturn and recovery, so far, offer none of the bargains he has historically pounced on.</p>\n<p>Analyst Backs Berkshire Stock</p>\n<p>UBS analyst Brian Meredith is rating BRKB stock as a buy with a 272 target.</p>\n<p>\"Our estimates assume the economy reopens in 2Q21 which will provide a tailwind for BNSF and the Manufacturing, Services and Retail businesses,\" he said in a note to clients.</p>\n<p>Meredith increased his expectation for share buybacks to $4.5 billion in the first quarter, and to $8 billion for the full year. However he said this could \"prove overly conservative.\"</p>\n<p>Buybacks will help drive the price of Berkshire stock higher.</p>\n<p>Difference Between BRKA Stock And BRKB Stock</p>\n<p>The most obvious difference between Berkshire Hathaway's A class and B class shares is the price. While — at over 200 a share — BRKB stock may be considered relatively expensive, BRKA stock is the most expensive on the market, currently trading near $350,000 a share.</p>\n<p>Warren Buffett decided to introduce the BRKB shares to allow investors to purchase stock directly. Big demand for Berkshire Hathaway stock forced less-moneyed players to plow cash into unit trusts or mutual funds that mirrored his company's holdings.</p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway Today</p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway operates in four main sectors.</p>\n<p>Its insurance group is one of its biggest cash cows. One of the most famous jewels in the crown is Geico. Other parts of this business include multinational property/casualty and life/health reinsurance company General Re and Berkshire Hathaway Reinsurance Group. The latter underwrites excess-of-loss reinsurance and quota-share coverage globally.</p>\n<p>Insurance operations are a big reason why Berkshire Hathaway earnings can be lumpy.</p>\n<p>Its Regulated Utility Business group includes Berkshire Hathaway Energy, formerly known as MidAmerican Energy. It also includes railway services arm BNSF, North America's largest freight railroad network.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Manufacturing, Service &amp; Retailing group includes Acme Building Brands, Fruit of the Loom and Justin Brands. The likes of Buffalo News, Business Wire, Dairy Queen and NetJets fall under the service subsector. Retailers include See's Candies, Ben Bridge Jeweler, Helzberg Diamond Shops and Star Furniture.</p>\n<p>Finally, the Finance &amp; Financial Products segment includes: Hathaway Credit Corporation, transportation equipment and furniture leasing specialists XTRA and CORT, and BH Finance whose main interest is in proprietary investing strategies.</p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway Stock Is Not A Buy, For Now</p>\n<p>While Berkshire Hathaway stock has been lagging the S&amp;P 500 index since late 2018, it has started to find some performance. But it has been slipping again of late, even though Berkshire stock is still clear of a buy zone.</p>\n<p>In 2020, BRKB stock's gains lagged the broader S&amp;P 500, but it is beating this benchmark so far in 2021. Nevertheless, its poor Composite Rating underlines the fact overall performance is not ideal.</p>\n<p>After a late-2018 burst, Berkshire Hathaway earnings growth has been modest and uneven. But Wall Street sees solid EPS growth ahead for Berkshire in 2021 and 2022.</p>\n<p>Bottom line: Berkshire Hathaway stock is not a buy at the moment. Those interested in buying the ultimate Warren Buffett could add it to their watchlist, and watch to see if its performance continues to improve.</p>\n<p>Someone looking for true market leaders should check out&nbsp;IBD Stock Lists, including the&nbsp;IBD 50 list of top-performing stocks.</p>","source":"lsy1610449120050","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The Ultimate Warren Buffett Stock Is Near Buy Zone, But Should You Buy It?</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nThe Ultimate Warren Buffett Stock Is Near Buy Zone, But Should You Buy It?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-03-24 11:38 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.investors.com/research/berkshire-hathaway-stock-buy-now-warren-buffett-stock/><strong>investors</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Warren Buffett is widely regarded as one of the greatest investors of all time.

One way to share in his success is to invest in his firm,Berkshire Hathaway(BRKB). Berkshire stock is near a buy zone, but is it a good buy for you now? Let's take a close look at the fundamental and technical performance of the ultimate Warren Buffett stock.\nBerkshire Hathaway is a conglomerate that owns some of America's most famous firms. It wholly owns the likes of Geico, Duracell, Dairy Queen, Fruit of the Loom and railroad operator BNSF.\nBerkshire Hathaway is perhaps more famous for serving as an investment vehicle for Warren Buffett and his top lieutenant, Charlie Munger. Following their value investing philosophy,the company owns huge stakesin American Express(AXP), Coca-Cola(KO) and other heavy hitters.\nBut the definition of a Warren Buffett stock has evolved in recent years. Warren Buffett became a big investor in airlines such asDelta Air Lines(DAL). But he was left to rue his decision to go against his own long-held views about that industry's lack of profitability. The move blew up in his face as airline stocks were decimated due to the global coronavirus pandemic.\nUnder investment managers Todd Combs and Ted Weschler, Berkshire Hathaway has been increasingly sinking money into tech. It's taken large positions in established giants likeApple(AAPL), as well as younger companies like Brazilian payments companyStoneCo(STNE) and new software IPOSnowflake(SNOW). Berkshire also snapped up a stake inAmazon.com(AMZN).\nWarren Buffett Doubles Down On Berkshire Stock\nWarren Buffett spent matched the previous quarter's record spending on Berkshire Hathaway stock in the most recent quarter. Thefirm's results showed Berkshire repurchased about $9 billion in shares, steady with the record $9 billion in Q3.\nThese repurchases were also a big jump from the $5.1 billion in Q2. At the time, that was more than double the prior quarterly record of $2.2 billion in Q4 2019 and a shift from slower stock repurchases of $1.7 billion in Q1.\nBuffett said the company has repurchased more shares since the end of 2020, and \"is likely to further reduce its share count in the future.\"\nWhile he has historically been reluctant to splurge on stock repurchases, he explained his change of heart in his latest annual letter to shareholders.\n\"The math of repurchases grinds away slowly, but can be powerful over time,\" he wrote. \"The process offers a simple way for investors to own an ever-expanding portion of exceptional businesses.\"\nBerkshire loosened rules for Buffett to buy back shares in 2018. With Berkshire steadfastly cautious on M&A in recent years, investors have been clamoring for more repurchases.\nBerkshire Hathaway Tweaks Portfolio\nWarren Buffett took a huge stake inVerizon(VZ) stock while dumping JPMorgan (JPM) stock entirely, according to thefirm's latest regulatory filing.\nIts new Verizon stake is massive, with Berkshire paying $8.62 billion for 147 million shares. It now accounts for 3% of the portfolio, making it the No. 6 stock by number of shares held.\nBuffett also opened new stakes inChevron(CVX),Marsh & McLennan(MMC) andEW Scripps(SSP) in Q4.\nBerkshire dumped entirelyPfizer(PFE),JPMorgan Chase(JPM),Barrick Gold(GOLD),M&T Bank(MTB) andPNC Financial(PNC).\nThe conglomerate grew stakes by 117% inT-Mobile(TMUS), 34% inKroger(KR), 28% inMerck(MRK), 20% inAbbVie(ABBV), 11% inBristol-Myers Squibb(BMY), and 1% inRH(RH).\nBuffett cut Berkshire's stake in Apple stock by 6%. It remains the No. 1 stock in his portfolio by market value and No. 2 stock by number of shares held, at 10.6% of the portfolio. He kept an Amazon stake steady.\nWarren Buffett Funds Media Deal\nBerkshire Hathaway is a key backer in a deal disclosed Sept. 24 that will see TV station ownerE.W. Scripps(SSP) purchase privately held cable network ION Media for $2.65 billion. The latter firm's flagship, ION Television, is a top 5-ranked U.S. general entertainment network.\nWarren Buffett's firm is snapping up $600 million of Scripps preferred shares to help fund the deal. Scripps stock surged on on the news.\nBerkshire will also receive a warrant that allows it to snap up up to 23.1 million more shares at a price of $13. This adds up to an additional investment of $300 million. Scripps' common shares, however, currently trade below 11 each.\nBerkshire Hathaway Coronavirus Exposure\nAs well as its status as an investment vehicle, Berkshire Hathaway is a conglomerate in its own right. It has interests in segments such as railroads, utilities and energy.\nThose sectors, along with other \"real economy\" companies that are Warren Buffett staples, have been hard hit by the coronavirus shutdowns and massive economic contraction. However they should benefit as the economy opens up again.\nBerkshire owns Geico, the No. 2 U.S. auto insurer after State Farm. Currently, states such as California are ordering insurers to give partial credits or refunds of premiums in lines such as private passenger automobile insurance.\nRailroads Not Immune\nBerkshire also owns BNSF Railway Company, the largest freight railroad network in North America. Rail operators such asUnion Pacific(UNP) andCSX(CSX) have seen business suffer during the pandemic. But rail operators and other transportation companies are seeing business pick up again.\nOther wholly owned businesses such as Dairy Queen and multilevel marketing company Pampered Chef also struggled during coronavirus restrictions, though those are easing.\nWarren Buffett's Big Gas Bill\nWarren Buffett has been criticized for the size of his cash pile. But last July he madehis biggest acquisition in yearswith a $10 billion deal forDominion Energy's (D) assets.\nBerkshire seized the chance to secure Dominion's gas pipeline network after the utility giant andDuke Energy(DUK) unexpectedly aborted plans to build the Atlantic Coast Pipeline.\nBerkshire Hathaway Energy will buy about 7,700 miles of natural gas transmission pipelines and 900 billion cubic feet of gas storage. The all-cash deal includes $4 billion of equity and $5.7 billion of debt. It's set to close in the fourth quarter.\n\"We are very proud to be adding such a great portfolio of natural gas assets to our already strong energy business,\" Buffett said in a statement.\nEnergy has been doing well so far in 2021. For example, the Vanguard Energy ETF (VDE) is up 39% since the start of the year.\nBerkshire Hathaway Stock Technical Analysis\nAmid the coronavirus-related stock market pullback, Berkshire Hathaway stock plummeted. MarketSmith analysis showsit has recovered from its woes, and recently broke out of anew flat base. While it managed to clear its buy zone, it is now sinking back towards it. Theideal buy pointwas 235.09.\nThe flat base is one of the few reliable patterns that quality stocks form before they make substantial price advances. Bolstering the new base's case is the fact it is a first-stage pattern. IBD research showsearly stage bases have a higher chance of success.\nBefore rallying back into buy zone, BRKB stock fell below its50-day moving average. The fact it is falling back towards this key technical benchmark is a concern.\nTherelative strength lineof Berkshire Hathaway stock had been showing some promise, but has been declining again of late. It remains shy of 12 month highs. The RS line, the blue line in the charts provided, tracks a stock's performance vs. the S&P 500 index.\nBRKB stock is outperforming in 2021. So far this year it is up 7%, which beats the broader S&P 500's return of 4.1%.\nItsIBD Composite Ratingnow sits at 45 out of 99, which is still far from ideal. This puts it in the bottom 45% of stocks tracked.\nTheStock Checkup Toolshows earnings have growth rate by an average of 13% over the past three years, which is not ideal. Earnings ultimately drive stock performance.\nThe CAN SLIM systemrecommends investors look for companies with average EPS growth of at least 25% over this time period.\nWall Street is becoming more optimistic for Berkshire Hathaway earnings growth going forward. Analysts are projecting annual earnings will rise 18% 2021, and by 10% in 2022.\nWarren Buffett Recommendation\nBerkshire stock has lagged the S&P 500 index since the end of 2018. Before that, BRKB stock at best moved with the market for a decade. An investor could have bought an index fund or ETF like the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), and generated similar or higher returns with less stock-specific risk.\n\"In my view, for most people, the best thing to do is owning the S&P 500 index fund, Buffett himself previously said at a Berkshire annual meeting. \"If you bet on America and sustain that position for decades, you'd do far better than buying Treasury securities, or far better than following people. Perhaps with a bias, I don't believe anyone knows what the market is going to do tomorrow, next week, next month, next year.\"\nBut given how BRKB stock is outperforming the S&P 500 so far this year, it could finally be set for a period of outperformance.\nBerkshire Hathaway Earnings Improve\nThe firm's famed $281.2 billion stock portfolio helped lift Berkshire's net income 23% to $35.8 billion in Q4.\nExcluding some of the investments, operating earnings rose to $5 billion from $4.4 billion a year ago.\nBRKB earnings per share powered back following the two previous quarters of decline, coming in above analyst views. They rose 19% to $2.15.\nBuffett's Cash Mountain Still Mighty\nBerkshire's cash pile dipped to $138.3 billion in Q4 from $145.7 billion in Q3. Still, in recent years the amount of available funds had swelled to record levels, raising expectations that Buffett would make a big acquisition.\nHaving such a large supply of cash protects the Warren Buffett stock during tough times. It also mean Berkshire Hathaway is able to deploy capital when desirable businesses become available for purchase.\nThe more aggressive buying of Berkshire's own shares last year contrasts with Buffett's deals during and after the Great Recession, indicating that the latest economic downturn and recovery, so far, offer none of the bargains he has historically pounced on.\nAnalyst Backs Berkshire Stock\nUBS analyst Brian Meredith is rating BRKB stock as a buy with a 272 target.\n\"Our estimates assume the economy reopens in 2Q21 which will provide a tailwind for BNSF and the Manufacturing, Services and Retail businesses,\" he said in a note to clients.\nMeredith increased his expectation for share buybacks to $4.5 billion in the first quarter, and to $8 billion for the full year. However he said this could \"prove overly conservative.\"\nBuybacks will help drive the price of Berkshire stock higher.\nDifference Between BRKA Stock And BRKB Stock\nThe most obvious difference between Berkshire Hathaway's A class and B class shares is the price. While — at over 200 a share — BRKB stock may be considered relatively expensive, BRKA stock is the most expensive on the market, currently trading near $350,000 a share.\nWarren Buffett decided to introduce the BRKB shares to allow investors to purchase stock directly. Big demand for Berkshire Hathaway stock forced less-moneyed players to plow cash into unit trusts or mutual funds that mirrored his company's holdings.\nBerkshire Hathaway Today\nBerkshire Hathaway operates in four main sectors.\nIts insurance group is one of its biggest cash cows. One of the most famous jewels in the crown is Geico. Other parts of this business include multinational property/casualty and life/health reinsurance company General Re and Berkshire Hathaway Reinsurance Group. The latter underwrites excess-of-loss reinsurance and quota-share coverage globally.\nInsurance operations are a big reason why Berkshire Hathaway earnings can be lumpy.\nIts Regulated Utility Business group includes Berkshire Hathaway Energy, formerly known as MidAmerican Energy.

But it has been slipping again of late, even though Berkshire stock is still clear of a buy zone.\nIn 2020, BRKB stock's gains lagged the broader S&P 500, but it is beating this benchmark so far in 2021. Nevertheless, its poor Composite Rating underlines the fact overall performance is not ideal.\nAfter a late-2018 burst, Berkshire Hathaway earnings growth has been modest and uneven. But Wall Street sees solid EPS growth ahead for Berkshire in 2021 and 2022.\nBottom line: Berkshire Hathaway stock is not a buy at the moment. Those interested in buying the ultimate Warren Buffett could add it to their watchlist, and watch to see if its performance continues to improve.\nSomeone looking for true market leaders should check out IBD Stock Lists, including the IBD 50 list of top-performing stocks.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":30,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":353177549,"gmtCreate":1616475391081,"gmtModify":1704794576242,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/353177549","repostId":"2121094501","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2121094501","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1616472348,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2121094501?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-23 12:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"ArcLight Clean Transition Corp.

Another meeting is set for April 22 when creditors will have the opportunity to vote on Greensill’s future.\nThe first creditors meeting for Lex Greensill’s collapsed supply-chain finance business in Australia on Friday lasted 55 minutes, with 59 creditors in attendance with their representatives. The Association of German Banks as well as German and Australian securities regulators were also on the call, led by Matt Byrnes, a partner at Grant Thornton.\nGreensill filed for insolvency in the U.K. last week amid concerns over the valuation of its assets. Key backers from Credit Suisse Group AG to SoftBank had signaled doubts over loans made by the firm.\nSoftBank did not immediately respond to a request for comment. SoftBank’s Vision Fund put $1.5 billion into Greensill in 2019. It’s written down the valuation and is considering dropping it close to zero, people familiar with the matter have said.\nNow, the repercussions are hitting banks and investors across Europe. Credit Suisse this week said it would suspend bonus payments for some top managers and weigh clawbacks as it tries to contain the fallout from its involvement with Greensill.\nThe Swiss lender said it’s expecting defaults in a $10 billion group of supply-chain funds that it ran with Greensill and that so far it has only recovered about $50 million of a $140 million loan to the firm.\nSome 34 individual creditors have submitted claims, excluding employees, though this number may increase as further claims are made during the administration, the Grant Thorntonstatement said.\nThe Peter Greensill Trust was also named Friday as a creditor.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":85,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":325633226,"gmtCreate":1615892610165,"gmtModify":1704788030786,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment please","listText":"Like and comment please","text":"Like and comment please","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/325633226","repostId":"1117282524","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":25,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":380799407,"gmtCreate":1612584317109,"gmtModify":1704873080314,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go&nbsp;STI!","listText":"Go&nbsp;STI!","text":"Go STI!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/380799407","repostId":"2109727286","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":11,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"content":"Good retirmenet ETF","text":"Good retirmenet ETF","html":"Good retirmenet ETF"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":322236695,"gmtCreate":1615808615817,"gmtModify":1704786816743,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/322236695","repostId":"1192661500","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1192661500","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1615804156,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1192661500?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-15 18:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"4 Vanguard ETFs That Can Double Your $1,400 Stimulus Check","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1192661500","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"If a $1,400 stimulus check is headed your way, investing that money in an exchange-traded fund (ETF)","content":"<p>If a $1,400 stimulus check is headed your way, investing that money in an exchange-traded fund (ETF) could pay off big time.

Many on Wall Street are worried that the economy will overheat before the Fed pulls back its easy policy stance.\nYields on the 10-year Treasury noteTMUBMUSD10Y,1.734%have risen to 1.73% this week after starting the year below 1%.\nStocks were trading lower on Friday, with the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA,-0.71%down 187 points in mid-morning trading.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":15,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":323709078,"gmtCreate":1615371775994,"gmtModify":1704781801668,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/323709078","repostId":"1194930530","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1194930530","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1615370215,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1194930530?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-10 17:56","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Treasury yields climb ahead of February inflation data","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1194930530","media":"cnbc","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nFebruary’s consumer price index is due out at 8:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday.\nEconomists expe","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nFebruary’s consumer price index is due out at 8:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday.\nEconomists expect it to have risen 0.4% in February, or up 1.7% from a year ago.\nHouse Democrats aim to pass the $...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/10/us-bonds-treasury-yields-climb-ahead-of-february-inflation-data.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;

All it would need is an announcement of the initiation of a dividend.</p><p>A dividend of 2% would be a good start, representing about 40% of projected 2021 earnings. It would probably lift the stock by broadening the base of potential investors to those who want or need dividends.</p><p>Berkshire has stepped up its share repurchases, buying back $15.7 billion of stock in the first three quarters of 2020, or about 3% of the shares outstanding. But with $146 billion in cash and projected earnings this year of $25 billion, it has the ability to pay a dividend as well as to buy back stock.</p><p>“Berkshire should pay a dividend; this would increase the appeal of the shares to investors who want current income,” says David King, co-manager of the Columbia Flexible Capital Income fund. “Given Berkshire’s size and financial strength, the company is unique in paying no dividend and that should be changed.”</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/014471f5dbd6554ccdd4f23756e41a51\" tg-width=\"963\" tg-height=\"627\"></p><p>Berkshire hasn’t paid a dividend for over 50 years. Why? Buffett’s view has been that a dollar in his hands is better than one in the hands of shareholders. That was long the case as Buffett worked his investment and acquisition magic, but it has been less true in recent years. Buffett declined to comment for this article.</p><p>In his 2012 annual letter, the CEO addressed the dividend issue, arguing that the better, and more tax-efficient, approach would be for investors who want income to sell a small portion of their Berkshire stock each year.</p><p>“First, dividends impose a specific cash-out policy upon all shareholders. If, say, 40% of earnings is the policy, those who wish 30% or 50% will be thwarted,” Buffett wrote. “Our 600,000 shareholders cover the waterfront in their desires for cash. It is safe to say, however, that a great many of them—perhaps even most of them—are in a net-savings mode and logically should prefer no payment at all.”</p><p>In 2014, Berkshire holder&nbsp;soverwhelmingly rejected a proxy proposalon dividends.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d68e1f8f07f62b85a646a858fee9196c\" tg-width=\"956\" tg-height=\"571\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Yet Berkshire’s cash has more than doubled since then, notes Edward Jones analyst James Shanahan, who favors a dividend. “A dividend is a good idea if only because the cash balance has grown so much,” he says, adding that significant repurchases at Berkshire are more difficult than at other big companies because there is less liquidity in its stock.</p><p>Berkshire’s class A shares have lagged behind theS&amp;P 500 indexby 40 percentage points since the end of 2018. They now look appealing at around $368,000, less than 1.3 times estimated year-end 2020 book value of around $287,000 and about 23 times projected 2021 earnings. Its class B shares trade around $243.</p><p>Berkshire has traded at closer to 1.4 times book value in the past five years, and earnings are set to climb in 2021, thanks to businesses with exposure to an improving economy, like the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad.</p><p>Still, the past decade has been one of missed opportunities for Buffett—with the stake inApple(AAPL) the notable exception.While the recently disclosed big purchasesinVerizon Communications(VZ) andChevron(CVX) made waves, Berkshire was likely a net seller of about $9 billion of stocks last year. The company also failed to capitalize on the market turmoil and make any big acquisitions.</p><p>So what else might Berkshire shareholders hope to see in the annual letter? More disclosure would help. It’s hard to know exactly how well Precision Castparts and other major Berkshire businesses are doing because the company doesn’t break out their results.</p><p>There is also the question of succession, with Buffett turning 90 last August.

All it would need is an announcement of the initiation of a dividend.A dividend of 2% would be a good start, representing about 40% of projected 2021 earnings. It would probably lift the stock by broadening the base of potential investors to those who want or need dividends.Berkshire has stepped up its share repurchases, buying back $15.7 billion of stock in the first three quarters of 2020, or about 3% of the shares outstanding. But with $146 billion in cash and projected earnings this year of $25 billion, it has the ability to pay a dividend as well as to buy back stock.“Berkshire should pay a dividend; this would increase the appeal of the shares to investors who want current income,” says David King, co-manager of the Columbia Flexible Capital Income fund. “Given Berkshire’s size and financial strength, the company is unique in paying no dividend and that should be changed.”Berkshire hasn’t paid a dividend for over 50 years. Why? Buffett’s view has been that a dollar in his hands is better than one in the hands of shareholders. That was long the case as Buffett worked his investment and acquisition magic, but it has been less true in recent years. Buffett declined to comment for this article.In his 2012 annual letter, the CEO addressed the dividend issue, arguing that the better, and more tax-efficient, approach would be for investors who want income to sell a small portion of their Berkshire stock each year.“First, dividends impose a specific cash-out policy upon all shareholders. If, say, 40% of earnings is the policy, those who wish 30% or 50% will be thwarted,” Buffett wrote. “Our 600,000 shareholders cover the waterfront in their desires for cash. It is safe to say, however, that a great many of them—perhaps even most of them—are in a net-savings mode and logically should prefer no payment at all.”In 2014, Berkshire holder soverwhelmingly rejected a proxy proposalon dividends.Yet Berkshire’s cash has more than doubled since then, notes Edward Jones analyst James Shanahan, who favors a dividend. “A dividend is a good idea if only because the cash balance has grown so much,” he says, adding that significant repurchases at Berkshire are more difficult than at other big companies because there is less liquidity in its stock.Berkshire’s class A shares have lagged behind theS&P 500 indexby 40 percentage points since the end of 2018. They now look appealing at around $368,000, less than 1.3 times estimated year-end 2020 book value of around $287,000 and about 23 times projected 2021 earnings. Its class B shares trade around $243.Berkshire has traded at closer to 1.4 times book value in the past five years, and earnings are set to climb in 2021, thanks to businesses with exposure to an improving economy, like the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad.Still, the past decade has been one of missed opportunities for Buffett—with the stake inApple(AAPL) the notable exception.While the recently disclosed big purchasesinVerizon Communications(VZ) andChevron(CVX) made waves, Berkshire was likely a net seller of about $9 billion of stocks last year. The company also failed to capitalize on the market turmoil and make any big acquisitions.So what else might Berkshire shareholders hope to see in the annual letter? More disclosure would help. It’s hard to know exactly how well Precision Castparts and other major Berkshire businesses are doing because the company doesn’t break out their results.There is also the question of succession, with Buffett turning 90 last August. Buffett could give up the CEO job to Berkshire’s vice chairman, Greg Abel, while remaining chairman and continuing to oversee Berkshire’s investment portfolio, including $270 billion of stocks.Berkshire hasn’t named an heir apparent to Buffett, but it’s widely assumed to be Abel, 58, who oversees Berkshire’s vast noninsurance operations, including Burlington Northern.That would give Abel important experience while Buffett is still on the scene, allowing Abel to take new steps, like potentially holding Berkshire’s first investor day.And whether it is Abel or someone else, a dividend would take pressure off Buffett’s successor to reinvest Berkshire’s earnings torrent and align the conglomerate with most other giant companies.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":8,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":360453444,"gmtCreate":1613968664288,"gmtModify":1704886276193,"author":{"id":"3572498650193459","authorId":"3572498650193459","name":"ProLim","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6eca4831f468b79e30513dff47109ae3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572498650193459","authorIdStr":"3572498650193459"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hmm","listText":"Hmm","text":"Hmm","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/360453444","repostId":"1178045979","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1178045979","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1613962535,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1178045979?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-22 10:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Bill Gates’ Trust Sold Alibaba, Uber, and Apple Stock.

The rally began after 2:30 p.m. (1930 GMT).\nOther so-called “stonks” - an intentional misspelling of ‘stocks’ - favored by retail traders on sites such as Reddit’s WallStreetBets, also shot higher. AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc gained 18%, Koss Corp rallied more than 50% and BlackBerry Corp rose nearly 9%. Shares of Canadian cannabis company Tilray Inc gained nearly 13%.\nAnalysts could not pinpoint one reason for the sharp move. At least one ruled out a short squeeze like that which fired the “Reddit rally” in January when mom-and-pop investors bought GameStop furiously to punish hedge funds that had bet against the retailer. Some Twitter users pointed to an activist investor’s tweet of an ice cream cone picture. Others cited factors including a reshuffling of top executives and options trading.\nShortly before 2 p.m., activist investor Ryan Cohen, a major shareholder of GameStop and founder of Chewy.com, tweeted a picture of a McDonald’s ice cream cone with a frog emoji. Some GameStop bulls wondered online whether it was a veiled message that Cohen would fix GameStop’s business, like the fast-food chain fixed its ice cream machines.\n“I don’t know what an ice-cream means,” said Michael Pachter, an analyst covering GameStop at Wedbush Securities. “People are looking for signals.”\nOthers pointed to the resignation of GameStop Chief Financial Officer Jim Bell as the company focuses on shifting into technology-driven sales.\n“GameStop announced the resignation of its CFO last night. Some may have taken this as a good sign that RC Ventures is making a difference at the company in terms of trying to accelerate the shift to digital,” said Joseph Feldman, an analyst at Telsey Advisory Group.\nStephanie Wissink, analyst at Jefferies Research cited her research report noting that the CFO resigned after the company settled with activist investor Ryan Cohen’s RC Ventures.
