region’s poor residents suffer brunt of COVID-19 pandemic</p>\n<p>Despite reports of an exodus, Silicon Valley remains the tech capital of the world, with new data showing continued record investment in the industry in 2020 and no overall declines in jobs and population in the region.</p>\n<p>While the high-profile departures of&nbsp;rich executives and investors like Elon Musk&nbsp;and&nbsp;companies like Oracle Corp.&nbsp;and&nbsp;Hewlett Packard Enterprise Corp.&nbsp;have raised questions about the future of California’s tech powerhouse, an annual report out this week found little evidence of a trend. Instead, the major effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the San Francisco Bay Area in 2020 was the widening of the divide between the haves and have-nots, thanks to all the money still flowing into just a few pockets as the coronavirus ravages poorer communities.</p>\n<p>“Today, we must frankly admit that the pandemic has made the rich richer while the poor are dying,” said Russell Hancock, chief executive of Joint Venture Silicon Valley, which published its annual Silicon Valley Index this week detailing what happened in the region last year.</p>\n<p>The report showed record venture capital investment in Bay Area startups, along with booming market capitalizations for public tech companies and standard-setting initial public offerings. Amid fears of a tech-worker stampede out of the Golden State as companies allowed remote work, the population in Silicon Valley — defined as Santa Clara and San Mateo counties — was mostly flat for the year, rising 0.02%.</p>\n<p>While an overall out-migration was tracked in San Francisco, the vast majority of those who left the most prominent city in the region last year&nbsp;remained in the state, according to U.S. Postal Service data crunched by the San Francisco Chronicle this week. That’s in line with what the Silicon Valley Index shows: 59% of the people who have left the valley in the past few years have stayed in California, moving up or down the state.</p>\n<p>“I think we can all calm down,” said Rachel Massaro, Joint Venture’s director of research, during a news briefing about the index. “We’re a place of innovation. We’re a place that houses these impactful companies. We have not seen any significant losses among them.”</p>\n<p>In short, the region’s biggest companies and highest-paid people fared drastically better and in many cases thrived — white-collar workers, who earn more than three times as those in service occupations, got to work remotely and protect themselves from a deadly virus — while low-wage workers lost jobs and fell ill, their lack of a safety net shining a harsher light on inequality.</p>\n<p>“It’s a tale of two economies,” Hancock said. “There are two stories.”</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e74e27c802a7abc5e4f17381a9dc9f7\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"343\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><b>The tech story</b></p>\n<p>Silicon Valley and San Francisco companies’ market capitalization climbed 37% to $10.5 trillion last year, according to the report, thanks to huge spikes from companies such as Tesla Inc.TSLA,-0.77%,which saw its market cap skyrocket more than 700% in 2020; Apple Inc.AAPL,+0.12%,which saw a 77% increase, while Facebook Inc.FB,-2.91%grew 30% and GoogleGOOGL,-0.81%experienced a 28% boost.</p>\n<p>Big Tech kept getting bigger in other ways as well. The top 15 tech employers in the area — which includes the above plus other large companies like Intel Corp.INTC,+2.27%,Salesforce Inc.CRM,-0.18%and Cisco Systems Inc.CSCO,-1.42%— ended the year with a 3.7% increase in jobs even while the region saw a couple hundred thousand jobs disappear overall.

Instead, the major effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the San Francisco Bay Area in 2020 was the widening of the divide between the haves and have-nots, thanks to all the money still flowing into just a few pockets as the coronavirus ravages poorer communities.\n“Today, we must frankly admit that the pandemic has made the rich richer while the poor are dying,” said Russell Hancock, chief executive of Joint Venture Silicon Valley, which published its annual Silicon Valley Index this week detailing what happened in the region last year.\nThe report showed record venture capital investment in Bay Area startups, along with booming market capitalizations for public tech companies and standard-setting initial public offerings. Amid fears of a tech-worker stampede out of the Golden State as companies allowed remote work, the population in Silicon Valley — defined as Santa Clara and San Mateo counties — was mostly flat for the year, rising 0.02%.\nWhile an overall out-migration was tracked in San Francisco, the vast majority of those who left the most prominent city in the region last year remained in the state, according to U.S. Postal Service data crunched by the San Francisco Chronicle this week. That’s in line with what the Silicon Valley Index shows: 59% of the people who have left the valley in the past few years have stayed in California, moving up or down the state.\n“I think we can all calm down,” said Rachel Massaro, Joint Venture’s director of research, during a news briefing about the index. “We’re a place of innovation. We’re a place that houses these impactful companies. We have not seen any significant losses among them.”\nIn short, the region’s biggest companies and highest-paid people fared drastically better and in many cases thrived — white-collar workers, who earn more than three times as those in service occupations, got to work remotely and protect themselves from a deadly virus — while low-wage workers lost jobs and fell ill, their lack of a safety net shining a harsher light on inequality.\n“It’s a tale of two economies,” Hancock said. “There are two stories.”\nThe tech story\nSilicon Valley and San Francisco companies’ market capitalization climbed 37% to $10.5 trillion last year, according to the report, thanks to huge spikes from companies such as Tesla Inc.TSLA,-0.77%,which saw its market cap skyrocket more than 700% in 2020; Apple Inc.AAPL,+0.12%,which saw a 77% increase, while Facebook Inc.FB,-2.91%grew 30% and GoogleGOOGL,-0.81%experienced a 28% boost.\nBig Tech kept getting bigger in other ways as well. The top 15 tech employers in the area — which includes the above plus other large companies like Intel Corp.INTC,+2.27%,Salesforce Inc.CRM,-0.18%and Cisco Systems Inc.CSCO,-1.42%— ended the year with a 3.7% increase in jobs even while the region saw a couple hundred thousand jobs disappear overall. And despite nagging questions about the effects of a work-from-home shift on commercial real estate, the largest companies in the region continued construction on existing projects, such as Google’s planned massive development in San Jose, Calif.\nThe next generation also received record investment totals. Snowflake Inc.SNOW,+0.08%,DoorDash Inc.and Airbnb Inc.,all based in the Bay Area, were the three biggest U.S. initial public offerings of 2020, not including special-purpose acquisition companies. And even in a booming year for IPOs, Silicon Valley outperformed the rest: 2020 IPOs from the valley grew 117% and S.F. issuances grew 101%, while IPOs in general returned 80% last year, according to the Silicon Valley Index.\nIt was also a record year for venture capital, with funding to Silicon Valley and San Francisco companies increasing 8% from 2019, the report said. Of the $123.6 billion in U.S. VC funding in 2020, $26.4 billion went to Silicon Valley, $20 billion to San Francisco and $67 billion to California. A lot of that investment went into well-known startups including Bay Area decacorns (private companies worth at least $10 billion) like Stripe, Instacart and Robinhood.\n\nThe other, less positive story\nWhile Big Tech flourished and money continued to pour into potential additions to that group, the gap between those flourishing from that performance and Silicon Valley’s poorer residents is wider than ever, the index shows.\nAs of last Friday, 2,069 people in the region had died of COVID-19, Hancock said. Death rates were highest among Native Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders, Black/African Americans and Hispanic or Latinos, respectively. A report by the Mercury News showed that death rates were far higher in poorer neighborhoods than wealthier ones, such as in the largely Latino neighborhoods of East San Jose.\nLower-wage workers lost their jobs or had to put their health at risk to hang onto their positions.\n“The pandemic wiped out our service sector and in-person economy,” Hancock said. “There’s real carnage out there. People have lost their livelihoods.”\nThe region’s community infrastructure and service jobs declined 54% by midyear 2020. Hispanic people were 1.5 times more likely to file unemployment claims as white people, Hancock said. And in December, more than 626,000 households in the Bay Area, including nearly 200,000 households in Silicon Valley, were at risk of eviction or mortgage nonpayment, according to the index.\nShuttle drivers who drove tech employees to various offices around the Bay Area for companies such as Salesforce Inc.,Twitter Inc. and others — which have told their employees they can work remotely permanently or most of the time — have been laid off or furloughed, said Stacy Murphy, business representative for Teamsters Local 853, which represents about 800 shuttle drivers in the Bay Area. Some drivers are still on paid furlough, but others are no longer receiving wages and most have no idea when they can return to work.\n“We are all patiently waiting,” said Murphy, who has said the union is in constant discussions and is advocating for the drivers to keep getting paid.\nThe murky future\nSome data from the index shows that concerns about a threat to the region’s reign as a tech center are not unfounded. Although Silicon Valley’s population did not decline in 2020, a yearslong out-migration trend did continue. Still, the index shows that the net out-migration in 2020 was about half that of the departures from the region in 2001, after the dot-com bubble burst.\nThe index also shows that the employment growth rate of the top 15 largest tech employers in Denver (14.7%) and Sacramento (14.5%) were nearly four times that of the Bay Area’s 3.7%.

While the percentage gains were smaller, the Bay Area still added more tech jobs in total than the other metropolitan areas.\nMetro areas in Florida, Texas and elsewhere are touting themselves as the next big tech hubs as companies and executives move to places like Texas, where Oracle and Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. have moved their headquarters — even as many Oracle employees remain in the Bay Area, Hancock pointed out.\nAs other companies move or make decisions about whether their employees should return to the office, it will affect the construction projects that have been put on hold or the office-space rental rates that have mostly held steady.\nThe Bay Area Council, which includes the region’s companies as members and advocates for business-friendly policies, has launched a “business climate” initiative as it worries about companies leaving the region.\n“It’s not going to be an immediate change,” said Patrick Kallerman, research director for the Bay Area Council Economic Institute. “The Bay Area isn’t going to be a ghost town in six months.

You can see it visually at CurrentMarketValuation.com. Some highlights...\nThe classic “Buffett Indicator” certainly seems to be in nosebleed territory. Notice that the valuations in 1966, the beginning of a long-term bear market, were also high.\nSource: CurrentMarketValuation.com\nThen there is the ever-popular price-to-earnings ratio. Notice by this measure that valuations were not all that stretched in 1966. Yet there still followed a 17-year bear market, as measured from the peak back to where it started.\n\nSource: CurrentMarketValuation.com\nThis next one is unusual: valuation as measured by mean reversion. Mean reversion is the fairly unsophisticated concept that \"what goes up must come down.\"\nWhile the market’s day-to-day movements are chaotic, long-term stockmarket returnstend to follow somewhat predictable upward trends. But they can also deviate from the trend for years or even decades.\nThis isn’t a trading strategy. But it's still a useful indicator of overall market valuation relative to the past.\nWhat's Different Now\nThis is not your father’s or your grandfather’s (if he was alive in 1929) overvalued market.\nThere are two major differences…\nFirst, in the dot-com era, the Federal Reserve had let loose the dogs of easymonetary policygoing into the Y2K event. That was appropriate given the uncertainty, but it clearly helped send already overvalued markets to extremes.\nWe had day traders piling into anything that looked like an internet stock, speculations, really easy money, and so forth. Then after January 1 passed uneventfully, Greenspan appropriately reversed the Fed’s monetary policy. Oops.\nAnd now we have enormous federal government stimulus, soon to be about 25% of GDP in less than a year. That money ends up somewhere, but its impact is still unclear. There is no historical parallel to consider.\nOvervalued Market... But Perhaps Not Overpriced\nJerome Powell is not Alan Greenspan.\nPowell and his colleagues have made it very clear they will keep monetary policy loose and rates low for a very long time.Inflationis well down their worry list. Their top concern is unemployment, which is indeed a real problem.\nThe Fed is telling us it will let inflation get to 3% or more. They are looking at the average inflation over time, which means they can justify doing anything they want.\nWhat they want is lowrates, even if it overheats the economy, until unemployment returns to where it was before the pandemic.\nIf they really mean that, then we are going to have low rates for a very long time, as unemployment is a bigger problem than most people think.\nIt also means, maybe not coincidentally, the US Treasury will find it easier to refinance an ever-increasing federal deficit.\nBut persistent low rates might mean stock market valuations are actually in the fair value range.\n\nLook at this chart showing S&P 500 value relative to interest rates. Interest rates are 1.6 standard deviations below the trendline.\nThat suggests that the S&P 500 may not be so overpriced.\nWhile valuations tell us nothing about short-term market moves, they are actually pretty good at longer-term returns.\nThat being said, some smart people I follow see pockets of undervaluation (at least relative to the US) in more than a few places.

Those factors make the company's stock worth a buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":148,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":356693132,"gmtCreate":1616770753426,"gmtModify":1704798786238,"author":{"id":"3573227795342863","authorId":"3573227795342863","name":"TeeNyKoH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4bdaa509575379c4224d28e97e3cdf9e","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"H","listText":"H","text":"H","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/356693132","repostId":"2122772444","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":181,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":334241866,"gmtCreate":1610845517855,"gmtModify":1704986266739,"author":{"id":"3573227795342863","authorId":"3573227795342863","name":"TeeNyKoH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4bdaa509575379c4224d28e97e3cdf9e","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"$Cciv","listText":"$Cciv","text":"$Cciv","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/334241866","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":251,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3527667803686145","authorId":"3527667803686145","name":"社区成长助手","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2b7c7106b5c0c8b0037faa67439d898f","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"content":"Finally, when you first post [compare heart] [compare heart] post, you can get more exposure by related stocks or related topics.

And the Bay Area’s share of those same companies’ U.S. workforces fell from 26.1% in January 2020 to 23.9% in December. While the percentage gains were smaller, the Bay Area still added more tech jobs in total than the other metropolitan areas.</p>\n<p>Metro areas in Florida, Texas and elsewhere are touting themselves as the next big tech hubs as companies and executives move to places like Texas, where Oracle and Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co.&nbsp;have moved their headquarters — even as many Oracle employees remain in the Bay Area, Hancock pointed out.</p>\n<p>As other companies move or make decisions about whether their employees should return to the office, it will affect the construction projects that have been put on hold or the office-space rental rates that have mostly held steady.</p>\n<p>The Bay Area Council, which includes the region’s companies as members and advocates for business-friendly policies, has launched a “business climate” initiative as it worries about companies leaving the region.</p>\n<p>“It’s not going to be an immediate change,” said Patrick Kallerman, research director for the Bay Area Council Economic Institute. “The Bay Area isn’t going to be a ghost town in six months. We’re asking ourselves if this is going to be a long-term, significant change.”</p>\n<p>Those changes will affect the quality of life in the Bay Area as municipalities find themselves with budget shortfalls. Silicon Valley city revenues are expected to decline by an average of 5% mostly due to the pandemic’s effects, according to the SV Index. San Francisco saw sales tax revenue decline 43% in the second quarter of 2020 compared with the prior year, according to the&nbsp;San Francisco Chronicle, which looked at the effects of the pandemic on the city’s once-bustling&nbsp;downtown.</p>\n<p>What happens to the big businesses — whether they leave, stay, change their work-from-home policies — will affect the small ones, too.</p>\n<p>Alicia Villanueva, who owns Alicia’s Tamales Los Mayas, a tamale factory in Hayward, Calif., and Lynna Martinez, owner of Cuban Kitchen, a restaurant in San Mateo, Calif., both said that despite devastating drops in their revenue, they avoided laying off any employees because of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and other loans.</p>\n<p>Both businesses relied heavily on catering to tech and other companies in the Bay Area.</p>\n<p>“We had hundreds of clients, including Oracle, Facebook, Google and Comcast,” Martinez said. “We would do anywhere between 100 to 300 orders before we opened our doors at 11 a.m. Then in March and April, boom, 50% of our business was gone.”</p>\n<p>The two women said they have had to adjust and make up the lost business however they can. Martinez said her catering business is probably a tenth of what it once was. Villanueva’s son is delivering tamales to a school district that’s more than 60 miles away.</p>\n<p>“He’s waking up at 2 a.m. to get ready and deliver to Vacaville at 5 a.m.,” said Villanueva, who has 21 employees.</p>\n<p>Martinez and her eight employees are relying more on referrals, and she’s now considering franchising.</p>\n<p>“The pandemic forced us to target a wider, more dispersed base,” she said. “In some ways, this was a good challenge for me as a business owner who wanted to pursue the idea of having a franchise.”</p>","source":"market_watch","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

While the percentage gains were smaller, the Bay Area still added more tech jobs in total than the other metropolitan areas.\nMetro areas in Florida, Texas and elsewhere are touting themselves as the next big tech hubs as companies and executives move to places like Texas, where Oracle and Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. have moved their headquarters — even as many Oracle employees remain in the Bay Area, Hancock pointed out.\nAs other companies move or make decisions about whether their employees should return to the office, it will affect the construction projects that have been put on hold or the office-space rental rates that have mostly held steady.\nThe Bay Area Council, which includes the region’s companies as members and advocates for business-friendly policies, has launched a “business climate” initiative as it worries about companies leaving the region.\n“It’s not going to be an immediate change,” said Patrick Kallerman, research director for the Bay Area Council Economic Institute. “The Bay Area isn’t going to be a ghost town in six months. We’re asking ourselves if this is going to be a long-term, significant change.”\nThose changes will affect the quality of life in the Bay Area as municipalities find themselves with budget shortfalls. Silicon Valley city revenues are expected to decline by an average of 5% mostly due to the pandemic’s effects, according to the SV Index. San Francisco saw sales tax revenue decline 43% in the second quarter of 2020 compared with the prior year, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, which looked at the effects of the pandemic on the city’s once-bustling downtown.\nWhat happens to the big businesses — whether they leave, stay, change their work-from-home policies — will affect the small ones, too.\nAlicia Villanueva, who owns Alicia’s Tamales Los Mayas, a tamale factory in Hayward, Calif., and Lynna Martinez, owner of Cuban Kitchen, a restaurant in San Mateo, Calif., both said that despite devastating drops in their revenue, they avoided laying off any employees because of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and other loans.\nBoth businesses relied heavily on catering to tech and other companies in the Bay Area.\n“We had hundreds of clients, including Oracle, Facebook, Google and Comcast,” Martinez said. “We would do anywhere between 100 to 300 orders before we opened our doors at 11 a.m. Then in March and April, boom, 50% of our business was gone.”\nThe two women said they have had to adjust and make up the lost business however they can. Martinez said her catering business is probably a tenth of what it once was. Villanueva’s son is delivering tamales to a school district that’s more than 60 miles away.\n“He’s waking up at 2 a.m. to get ready and deliver to Vacaville at 5 a.m.,” said Villanueva, who has 21 employees.\nMartinez and her eight employees are relying more on referrals, and she’s now considering franchising.\n“The pandemic forced us to target a wider, more dispersed base,” she said. “In some ways, this was a good challenge for me as a business owner who wanted to pursue the idea of having a franchise.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":209,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9018465231,"gmtCreate":1649080426427,"gmtModify":1676534446674,"author":{"id":"3573227795342863","authorId":"3573227795342863","name":"TeeNyKoH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4bdaa509575379c4224d28e97e3cdf9e","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yess
