The next day, a plan to sell 11.55 million shares (which eventually sold at an average price of $50.85) sent AMC (ticker: AMC) tumbling.</p>\n<p>Even with Thursday’s decline, the stock has soared 297% over the past nine trading sessions, and is up an eye-popping 2,160% for the year.</p>\n<p>After&nbsp;GameStop(GME) and&nbsp;BlackBerry(BB), there seems to be little stopping the latest hot meme stock,not even a warning from AMC itself: “Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our Class A common stock, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment,” the company said on Thursday in the filing to sell the shares.</p>\n<p>Earlier in the week, AMC sold 8.5 million shares to investment firm Mudrick Capital Management, which sold its stake at a profit that same day,Bloomberg reported. AMC called it a “very smart raising of cash so that we can grow this company.”</p>\n<p>More dilution could be coming. The company will ask shareholders to authorize the sale of an additional 25 million shares, starting in 2022, at its annual meeting next month.</p>\n<p>Despite the unusual warning and the dilution, some users doubled down on their enthusiasm for the stock in online forums this past week, noting that GameStop experienced similar volatility during its January rise. That just confounds and outrages traditional investors.</p>\n<p>“The surge in shares of AMC Entertainment is yet another sign of the reckless meme-stock-driven investing landscape that we find ourselves in today,” David Trainer, CEO of investment research firm New Constructs, recently wrote. “Wall Street insiders are preying on the naiveté of retail meme-stock traders. There is no fundamental reason to be buying shares of AMC Entertainment.”</p>\n<p>Trying to identify a fundamental narrative that can justify AMC’s ascent is admittedly difficult. Still, it is an exercise that might provide some insights for investors.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/62d362d944fe5c0a23bee485799d1195\" tg-width=\"956\" tg-height=\"637\"></p>\n<p>With the recent share sale, AMC has an enterprise value of about $35 billion, almost six times what it was at the end of 2018, a record-breaking year at the U.S. box office. At that time, the enterprise value for the three largest publicly traded theater operators was about 1.6 times the total domestic box office.

The next day, a plan to sell 11.55 million shares (which eventually sold at an average price of $50.85) sent AMC (ticker: AMC) tumbling.\nEven with Thursday’s decline, the stock has soared 297% over the past nine trading sessions, and is up an eye-popping 2,160% for the year.\nAfter GameStop(GME) and BlackBerry(BB), there seems to be little stopping the latest hot meme stock,not even a warning from AMC itself: “Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our Class A common stock, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment,” the company said on Thursday in the filing to sell the shares.\nEarlier in the week, AMC sold 8.5 million shares to investment firm Mudrick Capital Management, which sold its stake at a profit that same day,Bloomberg reported. AMC called it a “very smart raising of cash so that we can grow this company.”\nMore dilution could be coming. The company will ask shareholders to authorize the sale of an additional 25 million shares, starting in 2022, at its annual meeting next month.\nDespite the unusual warning and the dilution, some users doubled down on their enthusiasm for the stock in online forums this past week, noting that GameStop experienced similar volatility during its January rise. That just confounds and outrages traditional investors.\n“The surge in shares of AMC Entertainment is yet another sign of the reckless meme-stock-driven investing landscape that we find ourselves in today,” David Trainer, CEO of investment research firm New Constructs, recently wrote. “Wall Street insiders are preying on the naiveté of retail meme-stock traders. There is no fundamental reason to be buying shares of AMC Entertainment.”\nTrying to identify a fundamental narrative that can justify AMC’s ascent is admittedly difficult. Still, it is an exercise that might provide some insights for investors.\n\nWith the recent share sale, AMC has an enterprise value of about $35 billion, almost six times what it was at the end of 2018, a record-breaking year at the U.S. box office. At that time, the enterprise value for the three largest publicly traded theater operators was about 1.6 times the total domestic box office. (Theater chains typically have a lot of debt, making enterprise value a better measure.)\nAMC’s enterprise value is now about 17 times the dreadful, pandemic-affected domestic box office haul of just $2.1 billion in 2020.\nRoughly two-thirds of sales typically come from tickets. The rest comes from soda and, yes, popcorn. The challenge for the industry is whether enough moviegoers return and spend as they did before, after a year of staying home and streaming.\nThe business might go through a period of consolidation, as it did earlier this century, when a shift to stadium seating pushed some operators into bankruptcy and mergers. Regal Cinemas, one of the large U.S. theater chains, filed for bankruptcy in 2001. Coming out of bankruptcy, Regal became a cash-generating machine—fewer movie-theater operators helped. And fewer now could usher in another era of higher returns on investment and better cash generation.\nIndeed, the hope is that AMC could be opportunistic in the postpandemic world, perhaps by making acquisitions. The recent gains in the stock have made that hope self-fulfilling, allowing the company to raise new capital—$1.25 billion through stock sales in this quarter alone.\n“With our increased liquidity, an increasingly vaccinated population, and the imminent release of blockbuster new movie titles, it is time for AMC to go on the offense again,” CEO Adam Aron said this past Tuesday.\nIf AMC can boost market share, and if U.S. box office sales return to 2018 levels, the company’s total sales might hit $9 billion—$6 billion from tickets and $3 billion from concessions. Sales in 2018 were $5.5 billion.\nThen, if profit margins improve with better industry scale, and if AMC’s investment in new theaters can drop as new capacity isn’t really needed, the company might be able to generate $600 million in free cash flow annually.

The S&P 500 index trades for about a 3.4% free-cash-flow yield; other consumer-discretionary stocks in the S&P trade at a free-cash-flow yield of about 3.1%.\nWhile that may offer a faint glimmer of hope for fundamental investors, there are problems with the $600 million free-cash-flow scenario.

If memes are floating on the internet about a given stock, there's a pretty good chance that it's popular on Robinhood but not so much on Wall Street.</p>\n<p>However, there are also several stocks that retail investors on the commission-free trading platform and analysts alike hold in high regard. Here are three top Robinhood stocks that Wall Street thinks will soar 25% or more.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0548d25733705cf21e71b0a7eaad8add\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1333\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p>\n<p><b>Apple</b></p>\n<p>You might think that with a market cap topping $2 trillion, there's not much room for&nbsp;<b>Apple</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:AAPL)&nbsp;to grow. Analysts would disagree. The average one-year price target for the technology leader reflects a premium of nearly 28% over the current share price.</p>\n<p>Apple is the second-most widely held stock among Robinhood investors. Why? Probably because they realize the incredible moat and growth prospects that Apple enjoys with its iPhone-centric ecosystem.</p>\n<p>I think this ecosystem could expand enough for Apple to hit Wall Street's price target. The increased availability of high-speed 5G wireless networks continues to fuel demand for the newer iPhone models. Apple's services and wearables revenue also continues to grow significantly.</p>\n<p>Over the long run, my view is that technological innovations will keep Apple among the favorite stocks for both Robinhood investors and Wall Street analysts. Look for more augmented reality functionality on the way. There's also speculation that Apple could&nbsp;launch a foldable iPhone in 2023. A future market cap of $3 trillion or more isn't out of the question at all.</p>\n<p><b>Amazon.com</b></p>\n<p>Robinhood investors and analysts also agree on another so-called&nbsp;FAANG stock--<b>Amazon.com</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:AMZN). The internet giant ranks as the ninth most popular stock on Robinhood. Analysts think that Amazon's share price could rise 31% over the next 12 months.</p>\n<p>There are two key growth drivers that could enable Amazon to deliver that kind of growth. The company's Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud platform continues to fire on all cylinders and is highly profitable. Amazon is also experiencing strong momentum with its digital advertising business.</p>\n<p>Value investor Bill Miller even thinks that these two units&nbsp;could account for most of Amazon's valuation&nbsp;within the next couple of years. He's also bullish about the company's business-to-business and logistics platforms. I suspect Miller's optimism is on point.</p>\n<p>Don't forget e-commerce, though. Amazon remains the biggest e-commerce company in the world. Online sales still account for less than 14% of total retail sales in the U.S. There's a lot of room for Amazon to run in its core business.</p>\n<p><b>Bionano Genomics</b></p>\n<p>You might be at least a little surprised by the third top Robinhood stock on our list that Wall Street really likes. The average price target for&nbsp;<b>Bionano Genomics</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:BNGO)&nbsp;is a whopping 80% higher than the stock's current price.</p>\n<p>Bionano&nbsp;reported better-than-expected Q1 results&nbsp;in May. Revenue jumped 179% year over year to a record-high $3.2 million. Although the company remained unprofitable, its bottom line moved in the right direction.</p>\n<p>Customers appear to like Bionano's Saphyr genome mapping system. As the install base grows, the company's recurring revenue from consumables grows. That's the kind of business model that investors hope could really pay off over the long run.</p>\n<p>Bionano projects that it will have 150 Saphyr systems in the field by the end of this year, up 50% from the end of 2020.

If memes are floating on the internet about a given stock, there's a pretty good chance that it's popular on Robinhood but not so much on Wall Street.\nHowever, there are also several stocks that retail investors on the commission-free trading platform and analysts alike hold in high regard. Here are three top Robinhood stocks that Wall Street thinks will soar 25% or more.\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\nApple\nYou might think that with a market cap topping $2 trillion, there's not much room for Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) to grow. Analysts would disagree. The average one-year price target for the technology leader reflects a premium of nearly 28% over the current share price.\nApple is the second-most widely held stock among Robinhood investors. Why? Probably because they realize the incredible moat and growth prospects that Apple enjoys with its iPhone-centric ecosystem.\nI think this ecosystem could expand enough for Apple to hit Wall Street's price target. The increased availability of high-speed 5G wireless networks continues to fuel demand for the newer iPhone models. Apple's services and wearables revenue also continues to grow significantly.\nOver the long run, my view is that technological innovations will keep Apple among the favorite stocks for both Robinhood investors and Wall Street analysts. Look for more augmented reality functionality on the way. There's also speculation that Apple could launch a foldable iPhone in 2023. A future market cap of $3 trillion or more isn't out of the question at all.\nAmazon.com\nRobinhood investors and analysts also agree on another so-called FAANG stock--Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN). The internet giant ranks as the ninth most popular stock on Robinhood. Analysts think that Amazon's share price could rise 31% over the next 12 months.\nThere are two key growth drivers that could enable Amazon to deliver that kind of growth. The company's Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud platform continues to fire on all cylinders and is highly profitable. Amazon is also experiencing strong momentum with its digital advertising business.\nValue investor Bill Miller even thinks that these two units could account for most of Amazon's valuation within the next couple of years. He's also bullish about the company's business-to-business and logistics platforms. I suspect Miller's optimism is on point.\nDon't forget e-commerce, though. Amazon remains the biggest e-commerce company in the world. Online sales still account for less than 14% of total retail sales in the U.S. There's a lot of room for Amazon to run in its core business.\nBionano Genomics\nYou might be at least a little surprised by the third top Robinhood stock on our list that Wall Street really likes. The average price target for Bionano Genomics (NASDAQ:BNGO) is a whopping 80% higher than the stock's current price.\nBionano reported better-than-expected Q1 results in May. Revenue jumped 179% year over year to a record-high $3.2 million. Although the company remained unprofitable, its bottom line moved in the right direction.\nCustomers appear to like Bionano's Saphyr genome mapping system. As the install base grows, the company's recurring revenue from consumables grows. That's the kind of business model that investors hope could really pay off over the long run.\nBionano projects that it will have 150 Saphyr systems in the field by the end of this year, up 50% from the end of 2020. The company also anticipates receiving accreditation for additional laboratory-developed tests for Saphyr soon. Bionano is riskier than Apple or Amazon, but analysts think it could be a huge winner over the near term.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":407,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":135559768,"gmtCreate":1622171562354,"gmtModify":1704180830661,"author":{"id":"3573083167128340","authorId":"3573083167128340","name":"MeiXiang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573083167128340","authorIdStr":"3573083167128340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/135559768","repostId":"1188393893","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":497,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":358693394,"gmtCreate":1616682963918,"gmtModify":1704797428611,"author":{"id":"3573083167128340","authorId":"3573083167128340","name":"MeiXiang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573083167128340","authorIdStr":"3573083167128340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/358693394","repostId":"1143042915","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":417,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":112147949,"gmtCreate":1622857813081,"gmtModify":1704192517842,"author":{"id":"3573083167128340","authorId":"3573083167128340","name":"MeiXiang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573083167128340","authorIdStr":"3573083167128340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/112147949","repostId":"1132937041","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1132937041","pubTimestamp":1622853341,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1132937041?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-05 08:35","market":"us","language":"en","title":"AMC Stock Is Up 3,100%.

At that time, the enterprise value for the three largest publicly traded theater operators was about 1.6 times the total domestic box office. (Theater chains typically have a lot of debt, making enterprise value a better measure.)</p>\n<p>AMC’s enterprise value is now about 17 times the dreadful, pandemic-affected domestic box office haul of just $2.1 billion in 2020.</p>\n<p>Roughly two-thirds of sales typically come from tickets. The rest comes from soda and, yes, popcorn. The challenge for the industry is whether enough moviegoers return and spend as they did before, after a year of staying home and streaming.</p>\n<p>The business might go through a period of consolidation, as it did earlier this century, when a shift to stadium seating pushed some operators into bankruptcy and mergers. Regal Cinemas, one of the large U.S. theater chains, filed for bankruptcy in 2001. Coming out of bankruptcy, Regal became a cash-generating machine—fewer movie-theater operators helped. And fewer now could usher in another era of higher returns on investment and better cash generation.</p>\n<p>Indeed, the hope is that AMC could be opportunistic in&nbsp;the postpandemic world, perhaps by making acquisitions. The recent gains in the stock have made that hope self-fulfilling, allowing the company to raise new capital—$1.25 billion through stock sales in this quarter alone.</p>\n<p>“With our increased liquidity, an increasingly vaccinated population, and the imminent release of blockbuster new movie titles, it is time for AMC to go on the offense again,” CEO Adam Aron said this past Tuesday.</p>\n<p>If AMC can boost market share, and if U.S. box office sales return to 2018 levels, the company’s total sales might hit $9 billion—$6 billion from tickets and $3 billion from concessions. Sales in 2018 were $5.5 billion.</p>\n<p>Then, if profit margins improve with better industry scale, and if AMC’s investment in new theaters can drop as new capacity isn’t really needed, the company might be able to generate $600 million in free cash flow annually. That is about three times the cash-generating potential of prior, prepandemic years.</p>\n<p>With $600 million in free cash flow, the stock’s free-cash-flow yield works out to about 2.4%, based on recent prices. That yield makes the stock look expensive, but not completely unreasonable. The&nbsp;S&amp;P 500&nbsp;index trades for about a 3.4% free-cash-flow yield; other consumer-discretionary stocks in the S&amp;P trade at a free-cash-flow yield of about 3.1%.</p>\n<p>While that may offer a faint glimmer of hope for fundamental investors, there are problems with the $600 million free-cash-flow scenario. There are a lot of ifs and mights—and AMC has never generated cash flow like that in the past.</p>\n<p>Consolidation in the industry is also no guarantee of success. AMC’s share of the market might rise, but there are still competitors: Regal Cinemas, now owned by&nbsp;Cineworld Group(CINE.UK), and&nbsp;Cinemark Holdings(CNK).</p>\n<p>Neither one is trading like AMC: Cineworld stock is up 283% from its 52-week low, but is off 78% from all-time highs, while Cinemark shares are up 183% from their 52-week low, but down 51% from their all-time high. AMC stock, by comparison, is up 2,320% from its 52-week low.</p>\n<p>And AMC and its peers also have to compete with streaming. Windows for exclusive theater showings are shrinking, and the pandemic has accelerated that.</p>\n<p>Wall Street doesn’t see the potential. Ten analysts cover the stock, and the average price target is $5.25. The highest is $18 a share. Before the pandemic, the average analyst price target was $15. There were fewer shares of AMC at the time. The old target prices implied an enterprise value of roughly $7 billion—a far cry from $35 billion.</p>\n<p>Analysts do, however, have positive free cash flow projected for AMC in the future—about $13 million in 2022 and $90 million in 2023.</p>\n<p>At these levels, the fundamental case for AMC stock is, to put it mildly, a stretch. Yet overvaluation alone is never a good reason to sell a stock short, betting on a price decline. High numbers of shares shorted are typically an element in the meme-fueled rises. These days, the risk of&nbsp;short squeezes&nbsp;has become far larger than the potential gain from the market realizing that a stock is too expensive.</p>\n<p>In the end, investing and trading are different skills. Both can make people money. The important thing is not to confuse the two.</p>\n<p>AMC investors may understand that. “I think that for most of the retail investors that you see buying quote-unquote meme stocks, it really is to prove a point,” says Natalie Camacho, a 27-year-old writer from California’s San Fernando Valley.</p>\n<p>She says she bought 11 shares of AMC in January for $100 as the meme-stock wave began to build. She expected the company to benefit by the reopening from Covid-19.</p>\n<p>Camacho says that she had felt as if the world of investing was closed to her, because she didn’t have $10,000 to put into stocks. On social media, the AMC trade has been portrayed as a battle of the little guys against the big Wall Street firms, which appeals to her.</p>\n<p>“What draws me to it is that communal sense, that we’re all in this together,” she says. “There’s a sense that if we pool our money together, we might not be rich, but we’ll have enough to make a difference.”</p>\n<p>Regardless of how it plays out, she is betting with money she can afford to lose. As of Thursday morning, her $100 investment had grown to $460. “Maybe it’s a long-term bad idea, but for now we’re holding,” she says.</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","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>AMC Stock Is Up 3,100%.

(Theater chains typically have a lot of debt, making enterprise value a better measure.)\nAMC’s enterprise value is now about 17 times the dreadful, pandemic-affected domestic box office haul of just $2.1 billion in 2020.\nRoughly two-thirds of sales typically come from tickets. The rest comes from soda and, yes, popcorn. The challenge for the industry is whether enough moviegoers return and spend as they did before, after a year of staying home and streaming.\nThe business might go through a period of consolidation, as it did earlier this century, when a shift to stadium seating pushed some operators into bankruptcy and mergers. Regal Cinemas, one of the large U.S. theater chains, filed for bankruptcy in 2001. Coming out of bankruptcy, Regal became a cash-generating machine—fewer movie-theater operators helped. And fewer now could usher in another era of higher returns on investment and better cash generation.\nIndeed, the hope is that AMC could be opportunistic in the postpandemic world, perhaps by making acquisitions. The recent gains in the stock have made that hope self-fulfilling, allowing the company to raise new capital—$1.25 billion through stock sales in this quarter alone.\n“With our increased liquidity, an increasingly vaccinated population, and the imminent release of blockbuster new movie titles, it is time for AMC to go on the offense again,” CEO Adam Aron said this past Tuesday.\nIf AMC can boost market share, and if U.S. box office sales return to 2018 levels, the company’s total sales might hit $9 billion—$6 billion from tickets and $3 billion from concessions. Sales in 2018 were $5.5 billion.\nThen, if profit margins improve with better industry scale, and if AMC’s investment in new theaters can drop as new capacity isn’t really needed, the company might be able to generate $600 million in free cash flow annually. That is about three times the cash-generating potential of prior, prepandemic years.\nWith $600 million in free cash flow, the stock’s free-cash-flow yield works out to about 2.4%, based on recent prices. That yield makes the stock look expensive, but not completely unreasonable. The S&P 500 index trades for about a 3.4% free-cash-flow yield; other consumer-discretionary stocks in the S&P trade at a free-cash-flow yield of about 3.1%.\nWhile that may offer a faint glimmer of hope for fundamental investors, there are problems with the $600 million free-cash-flow scenario. There are a lot of ifs and mights—and AMC has never generated cash flow like that in the past.\nConsolidation in the industry is also no guarantee of success. AMC’s share of the market might rise, but there are still competitors: Regal Cinemas, now owned by Cineworld Group(CINE.UK), and Cinemark Holdings(CNK).\nNeither one is trading like AMC: Cineworld stock is up 283% from its 52-week low, but is off 78% from all-time highs, while Cinemark shares are up 183% from their 52-week low, but down 51% from their all-time high. AMC stock, by comparison, is up 2,320% from its 52-week low.\nAnd AMC and its peers also have to compete with streaming. Windows for exclusive theater showings are shrinking, and the pandemic has accelerated that.\nWall Street doesn’t see the potential. Ten analysts cover the stock, and the average price target is $5.25. The highest is $18 a share. Before the pandemic, the average analyst price target was $15. There were fewer shares of AMC at the time. The old target prices implied an enterprise value of roughly $7 billion—a far cry from $35 billion.\nAnalysts do, however, have positive free cash flow projected for AMC in the future—about $13 million in 2022 and $90 million in 2023.\nAt these levels, the fundamental case for AMC stock is, to put it mildly, a stretch. Yet overvaluation alone is never a good reason to sell a stock short, betting on a price decline. High numbers of shares shorted are typically an element in the meme-fueled rises. These days, the risk of short squeezes has become far larger than the potential gain from the market realizing that a stock is too expensive.\nIn the end, investing and trading are different skills. Both can make people money. The important thing is not to confuse the two.\nAMC investors may understand that. “I think that for most of the retail investors that you see buying quote-unquote meme stocks, it really is to prove a point,” says Natalie Camacho, a 27-year-old writer from California’s San Fernando Valley.\nShe says she bought 11 shares of AMC in January for $100 as the meme-stock wave began to build. She expected the company to benefit by the reopening from Covid-19.\nCamacho says that she had felt as if the world of investing was closed to her, because she didn’t have $10,000 to put into stocks. On social media, the AMC trade has been portrayed as a battle of the little guys against the big Wall Street firms, which appeals to her.\n“What draws me to it is that communal sense, that we’re all in this together,” she says. “There’s a sense that if we pool our money together, we might not be rich, but we’ll have enough to make a difference.”\nRegardless of how it plays out, she is betting with money she can afford to lose. As of Thursday morning, her $100 investment had grown to $460. “Maybe it’s a long-term bad idea, but for now we’re holding,” she says.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":414,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":135559768,"gmtCreate":1622171562354,"gmtModify":1704180830661,"author":{"id":"3573083167128340","authorId":"3573083167128340","name":"MeiXiang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573083167128340","authorIdStr":"3573083167128340"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/135559768","repostId":"1188393893","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1188393893","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1622123328,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1188393893?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-27 21:48","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Beyond Meat shares surges nearly 10%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1188393893","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Beyond Meat shares surges nearly 10%.For the first quarter of 2021, Beyond Meat saw 11.4% year-over-","content":"<p>Beyond Meat&nbsp;shares&nbsp;surges&nbsp;nearly&nbsp;10%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a34ea5683a321e8be4e74d066f19af12\" tg-width=\"810\" tg-height=\"610\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">For the first quarter of 2021, Beyond Meat saw 11.4% year-over-year (YOY) revenue growth despite the domestic foodservice segment being down 26% YOY.

For an example as to why I say this, we need only look at what has been happening with<b>GameStop</b>(NYSE:GME). The company has experienced extreme volatility recently, caused by speculators punishing short sellers. As I stated in a&nbsp;prior article, there was really only one way that the current valuation of the retailer could be justified: if management ultimately issued a significant amount of shares at these lofty prices.

While nothing is set in stone, this could help to justify the company’s high share price, essentially serving as a self-fulfilling prophecy. Absent this, though, investors should still be very cautious about the firm and in all likelihood should brace for shares to fall again.</p>\n<p><b>Some good news, some bad news</b></p>\n<p>And it’s fourth-quarter earnings release for its&nbsp;2020 fiscal year, GameStop reported some rather mixed results. First, let’s start with the&nbsp;headline news. As has been reported elsewhere, the company did mess expectations on both the top and bottom lines. Non-GAAP EPS came in $0.08 below estimates and GAAP EPS came in $0.29 below estimates. Revenue, meanwhile, missed by $110 million. In response to these headlines, shares of the company plummeted March 24th, closing down nearly 34%.</p>\n<p>At first glance, these results compared to expectations look bad. In some ways, when you dig in deeper, the picture worsens. As an example, while net income of $80.5 million with nearly 4 times higher than the $21 million in the same time a year earlier, when you look at earnings from continuing operations, dropped from $68.7 million to $10.6 million. Operating cash flow also suffered, declining from $240.3 million to $164.8 million. In all fairness, for the entire year, operating cash flow did come in stronger. For 2020, the figure was $123.7 million. This compares to a net outflow in 2019 at $414.5 million. However, when you adjust for changes to working capital, operating cash flow actually worsened. In 2019, it totaled $96.3 million. For 2020, we saw a net outflow of $57.3 million. EBITDA, meanwhile, dropped in the fourth quarter from $136.2 million to $50.3 million, and for the year declined from $166.8 million to -$149.4 million.</p>\n<p>Pain was not just on the bottom line though for the company. In fact, a large part of it was caused by March and contraction as revenue plummeted. Caused in part by the COVID-19 pandemic, and also caused by the closure, on the net basis, of 693 stores, revenue dropped from $6.47 billion in 2019 to $5.09 billion in 2020. Management points out that comparable store sales grew 6.5% in the fourth quarter, which beats out the 4.7% analysts anticipated. But if you look at the year as a whole, comparable store sales dropped by 13.9%. One bright spot here is that as the COVID-19 pandemic eventually winds down, investors should expect comparable store sales to see at least a one-time bump higher. One example of this can be seen in the companies February 2021 comparable sales. According to management, this figure came in 23% higher than it was the same time last year.</p>\n<p>One other bright spot that some investors might point to are the sales generated by the company in the fourth quarter. Despite the store account at the company plummeting, revenue dropped by only 3.3%. However, this was masked in a sense by strong hardware sales and accessories sales as console demand for 9th generation devices produced by&nbsp;<b>Microsoft</b>(MSFT) and&nbsp;<b>Sony</b>(SNE) came in strong. This is part of the cycle that occurs every few years when new consoles come out and old ones are parted with or set aside. It should not be viewed as a permanent push higher.</p>\n<p>By most measures, the picture facing GameStop is bad. Especially seeing negative EBITDA. When EBITDA, a figure that management can have great leeway with when calculating, is negative, you know the company in question has problems. That is not to say though that the retailer had nothing but bad news. Truly, there was some great news. First and foremost, we have rising e-commerce revenue. According to management, this figure surged 175% compared to what it was the same time last year. For the fourth quarter of 2020, it was 34% of net sales. This compares to 12% the same time one year earlier. For the year as a whole, sales surged 191%, and in 2020 accounted for 30% of the company’s net revenue. Based on my estimates, this would mean that revenue associated with online sales grew from $799 million in 2019 to $1.53 billion in 2020.</p>\n<p>Another really great thing about the company is that it actually has negative net debt. As of now, the firm has around $635 million in cash. This compares to $362.7 million in debt. So long as cash flows can remain neutral or positive, this implies no real chance of bankruptcy for the firm. Of course, this might be a tall order for a firm that continues to close the number of locations that has in operation. Back in 2016, for instance, the company had 6,132 stores operating. Today, that figure is around 4,816. And of the 693 closed in 2020, 450 are located in the US. Management was basically forced to do this, but even with that happening, net income has been negative in three of the past five years, while comparable store sales have been down and four of the last five years. In fact, aggregate comparable store sales declines over the past five years came out to 31.5%.</p>\n<p>Surely, the shift toward online sales is great for the company in a number of ways. However, that alone will not save the business. Consider console sales over the&nbsp;past several years. And in its lifetime, the PlayStation 2 saw 53.65 million units sold. PlayStation 4 sales, meanwhile, have totaled just 37.36 million. In all, the Xbox One has sold 31.39 million units compared to the 49.11 million units of the Xbox 360 sold. The latest model of Xbox, the Series X, has seen sales so far&nbsp;hit&nbsp;just 2.8 million units, down from the 2.9 million seen the same time period that the Xbox One was out. And despite being an excellent product, the 4.5 million units of the PlayStation 5&nbsp;sold&nbsp;just match the number of PlayStation 4 units sold in their respective first quarters. All of this is occurring despite the fact that video game sales are soaring through the roof. Most of that growth is happening in mobile, and what isn’t occurring there seems to be on the PC and software side. And that is not a category the GameStop thrives in. Even in the fourth quarter of last year, software sales for the company came in 25.7% lower than they were a year earlier.</p>\n<p>One thing that could work out well for the company, if it takes place, would be a significant selling of shares on the market. In releasing its fourth quarter results, the company announced that they might do something with a share issuance, but details have not been provided. In fact, the company has largely been silent on the matter otherwise. With the top and bottom lines of the firm struggling, and a drastic change in business needed, I feel the only way for the company to justify evaluation anywhere near the $8.42 billion that the market has assigned it is to dilute shareholders significantly and to allocate that capital toward new and bold initiatives.</p>\n<p><b>Takeaway</b></p>\n<p>Right now, there are some positive things regarding GameStop. However, the data is mostly negative. While online sales have been a bright spot for the company, it is highly unlikely that they will fully support the firm in the long run. What the company really needs to do a shift toward a software focus where it can specialize in its own content creation, but all the firm has talked about, for the most part when it comes to transforming, involves improving customer service, investing in technology, and other generic things of that nature. With a market capitalization right now of $8.42 billion, management could perhaps make a radical jump toward restructuring the company and justifying its current value if it were to issue a sizable amount of common stock. But, absent that, I still believe shares will move back down to around $20 apiece in the long run.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>GameStop: The Only Thing That Can Stop Another Crash</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\">\nGameStop: The Only Thing That Can Stop Another Crash\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-03-25 22:15 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4415977-gamestop-only-thing-can-stop-another-crash><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nGameStop reported a rather mixed, but mostly bearish, quarter to end out 2020.\nWhile there was some good news, the bad news was significant in nature.\nThe company is worth far less than it’s ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4415977-gamestop-only-thing-can-stop-another-crash\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GME":"游戏驿站"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4415977-gamestop-only-thing-can-stop-another-crash","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1143042915","content_text":"Summary\n\nGameStop reported a rather mixed, but mostly bearish, quarter to end out 2020.\nWhile there was some good news, the bad news was significant in nature.\nThe company is worth far less than it’s trading for, but one thing management revealed could save it from an eventual crash.\n\nPhoto by Spencer Platt/Getty Images News via Getty Images\n2021 is already proving to be a rather interesting year for investors and speculators alike.
