Investors should stay committed to this company as it continues its success story with its stock trading at multi-year lows.Tesla’s (NASDAQ: TSLA) recent decline is reminiscent of the tech sector during the Great Recession. TSLA stock hit an all-time high of $414 last year but now trades closer to its 52-week lows. Investors may have been quick to judge Tesla, but there are plenty of reasons why people should hold onto its shares for the long haul. Though it missed revenue estimates for the third quarter, it produced record results across business units. Hence, we’re bullish on TSLA stock.The EV giant has had an amazing year. It recently opened up two new Gigafactories that will double its previous annual production capacity from 1 million to 2 million cars. Recent comments by its maverick CEO, Elon Musk, suggested that the company is just starting with its global domination.With 12 additional Gigafactories, Tesla will produce 20 million cars annually by 2030. Analysts predict that this will bring in about $120 billion in revenue in 2023. It’s hard to say if Tesla can maintain its market share in the long run with so many new entrants making their presence felt in the EV space. However, its incredible brand equity in the space positions it as a clear frontrunner in the sphere.Plenty of Bright Spots in the Third Quarter for TeslaTesla delivered mixed results in its third quarter. Revenue increased 56% from the prior-year period to $21.45 billion, missing analyst estimates by a considerable margin. The miss was due to increased foreign exchange headwinds, with the U.S. Dollar faring much better than other currencies. Nevertheless, there were plenty of bright spots.Despite the economy being on an inflationary rollercoaster, Tesla’s operating expenses only grew by 2% to $1.69 billion. It also etched out a 17.2% operating margin driven by higher average selling prices. Tesla’s Adjusted EBITDA increased by 55% over the past year and now stands at $4.97 billion, while overall net income was up a staggering 103%. Earnings per share also rose by 98% from the same period last year.Its core growth driver was an increase in vehicle deliveries, which shot up 42% year-over-year to 343,830 vehicles and a 54% bump in production levels. Tesla’s market share is under 2% in the European and Chinese regions, so there’s still plenty of room for expansion. Even a small increase in market share could result in a massive sales windfall for the company.Tesla Stock Has Multiple Growth Catalysts in MotionTesla has been steadily updating its product line with new vehicles that are revolutionizing the automotive industry. The company’s latest innovation, an electric semi-truck, will start being delivered to PepsiCo (NASDAQ: PEP) on December 1. Moreover, the firm’s Cybertruck is in its final design phases and should soon hit the markets. Furthermore, Musk says a lower-priced EV is coming, which will expand Tesla’s passenger car offerings even further.There is also Tesla’s self-driving program, which has logged over 60 million miles from volunteers. The more miles the software logs, the better it “learns,” thus improving its capabilities. This will be a crucial part of the company’s robotaxi business, which would revolutionize how people move around communities by removing human intervention entirely.In addition to vehicles, Tesla is looking into manufacturing robots. Known as Optimus bots, they could be used as replacements for human workers who are now needed more than ever before. If Tesla’s new Optimus functionalities are any indication, robots could soon take over many of the low-skill jobs that companies rely on today. These automated machines can operate around the clock and do so with little human intervention, making them an ideal replacement for factory workers.Optimus is expected to hit markets in 2027. The potential for this technology is unprecedented. With a price tag of $20,000, the opportunity is expected to generate billions in sales over time.Is Tesla Stock a Buy?Turning to Wall Street, TSLA stock maintains a Moderate Buy consensus rating. Out of 30 total analyst ratings, 19 Buys, seven Holds, and four Sells were assigned over the past three months. The average TSLA price target is $292.89, implying a 31.57% upside potential. Analyst price targets range from a low of $85 per share to a high of $436 per share.Bottomline: TSLA Stock is for the Long TermTesla has been on quite the ride these past few years, with strong results and demand that’s only getting higher. Despite some mixed third-quarter financials, investors should stay committed to this company as it continues its success story. The company’s stock is surprisingly undervalued, and although the macro picture may present some short-term headwinds, it presents itself as a great long-term investment.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":608,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9982047535,"gmtCreate":1667058531228,"gmtModify":1676537855275,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573590765333740","authorIdStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9982047535","repostId":"2278507483","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2278507483","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1667005734,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2278507483?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-29 09:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy Hand Over Fist in November","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2278507483","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The Oracle of Omaha's methodology is passing the test of time after all.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Warren Buffett&#39;s value-based approach to picking stocks somewhat fell out of favor back in mid-2020, when growth stocks led the market out of its pandemic-prompted pullback.

Such an environment also sours the stock market, undermining the banking industry&#39;s investment-related businesses.</p><p>But investors may be pricing in far more downside than is merited for banks at the same time they&#39;re overlooking the upsides of this situation. That&#39;s arguably what&#39;s happening with <b>Bank of America</b> shares anyway.</p><p>Yes, last quarter&#39;s results showed a sizable uptick in provisions for losses on loans that may be in the cards, and per-share earnings fell from $0.85 to only $0.81 per share. That&#39;s quite possibly the worst trouble the bank&#39;s facing though. Even the company&#39;s investment management operation more or less matched this year&#39;s second-quarter results as well as the year-ago Q3 results during the third quarter of this year despite the broader market&#39;s poor performance.</p><p>Indeed, things may even be looking up very soon for Buffett&#39;s beaten-down $133 billion Bank of America position, which accounts for more than a tenth of his total stock holdings.</p><p>Although Bank of America is likely to make far fewer loans within the next few months than it has during the past few months, the net profitability of those loans should be much greater than the bank&#39;s current loan portfolio. In a recent interview with Yahoo! Finance, CEO Brian Moynihan pointed out that continued increases in interest rates could add another billion dollars worth of profitability to the company&#39;s current bottom line. That would bolster net interest income that was already up 24% year over year last quarter.</p><p>It&#39;s a possibility, however, that&#39;s only recent begun to be reflected in the stock&#39;s rebound effort from a sell-off that dragged it 40% below February&#39;s peak price. Still down 20% year to date though, the bounce since October&#39;s low may be a sign that the market is finally starting to right-price this ticker headed into November.</p><h2>2. Coca-Cola</h2><p>The recession-related risk of losing a job may prompt some people to cancel a vacation or postpone the purchase of a new car. Economic weakness and burgeoning inflation, however, typically don&#39;t cause consumers to stop buying their favorite beverages.</p><p>Enter<b> Coca-Cola</b>, which is doing just fine at a time when most companies aren&#39;t. Last quarter&#39;s organic revenue was up 16% on a 4% increase in unit volume, meaning the beverage giant is successfully passing along its higher costs to its customers. The company also managed to gain market share in a very crowded drinks market. And, given all that its management knows right now, Coca-Cola is still looking for solid single-digit revenue and earnings growth for the upcoming year despite broad economic headwinds.</p><p>This loyalty makes sense. Coca-Cola is one of the world&#39;s most recognized and beloved brand names, and being in business for 136 years means it&#39;s had plenty of time to become a fixture of the global culture. Christmas ornaments, clothing, toys, and home decor are just some of non-beverage goods that regularly borrow the Coca-Cola logo and colors, reflecting the planet&#39;s affinity for the brand outside of beverages.</p><p>Of course, The Coca-Cola Company isn&#39;t just its namesake cola anymore. The company reaches plenty of non-soda drinkers as well; it also owns Dasani water, Gold Peak tea, and Minute Maid juices, just to name a few.</p><p>Perhaps the real upside to new investors, however, is the nuance that Buffett likes most about this particular Berkshire holding. That&#39;s the dividend -- and its reliable growth -- that keeps on coming even in lousy environments. The quarterly payout has not only been paid like clockwork for decades now, but the annual dividend payment has been upped every year for the past 60 years.  Thanks to the stock&#39;s relative weakness this year, you can step into this stock right now while its yield is an above-average 3%.</p><h2>3. American Express</h2><p>Finally, add <b>American Express</b> to your list of Buffett stocks to buy sooner than later, while you can still buy it 26% below February&#39;s peak.</p><p>On the surface, it&#39;s just another credit company. Dig deeper, though, and it&#39;s much more. Whereas competitors like <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a></b> and <b>Mastercard</b> provide a payments processing platform for card issuers, American Express builds and operates its own robust charge-card ecosystem. The bulk of the company&#39;s personal and business charge cards impose an annual fee, but it&#39;s a fee its customers gladly pay in exchange for incredible perks. The Platinum Card, for instance, offers access to select airport lounges, while the Gold Card offers outright credits for <b>Uber Technology</b>&#39;s ride-hailing services.</p><p>And this ecosystem of benefits is no small matter.</p><p>The company earns interest income like any other lender and collects the usual transaction fees for facilitating the purchase of goods and services. But it also generates a great deal of service and card-fee income. Roughly 10% of last quarter&#39;s top line came from cardholders&#39; payments just for the privilege of holding an American Express charge card.</p><p>Of course, the economic turbulence could rattle consumers&#39; spending and prompt some to cancel credit cards that incur an annual fee. But that&#39;s not as likely as you might suspect.</p><p>Aside from the fact that American Express cardholders really, <i>really</i> love their rewards programs -- in August, J.D. Power ranked American Express highest for customer satisfaction for a third year in a row -- credit cards aren&#39;t just for splurging anymore. They&#39;re increasingly being used as an alternative to cash to buy everyday goods. In this vein, American Express has collected nearly $38.7 billion in net revenue through the first three quarters of this year, up 30% from where it was at this time of year in pre-pandemic 2019. Analysts are calling for top-line growth of 11% next year, too, despite the brewing economic headwind. That&#39;s more than many other companies will be able to produce.</p><p>You won&#39;t want to tarry if you agree with the bigger-picture bullish premise either. While the stock&#39;s deep in the red for the year, American Express and now both Mastercard and Visa all agreed in their most recent earnings reports that consumer spending is remaining surprisingly firm. The market hasn&#39;t been pricing these stocks accordingly, but may well do that beginning in November now that all three players are singing the same chorus.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy Hand Over Fist in November</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy Hand Over Fist in November\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-29 09:08 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/10/28/3-warren-buffett-stocks-to-buy-hand-over-fist-in-n/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Warren Buffett's value-based approach to picking stocks somewhat fell out of favor back in mid-2020, when growth stocks led the market out of its pandemic-prompted pullback.

The market environment is more than a little rocky this year, though, and Buffett's philosophy is proving itself once again. Whereas the S&P 500 has been rather deep in the red over the past year of trading, Berkshire Hathaway stock is basically breaking even.Translation: Given enough time, the all-weather Warren Buffett way still works.Let's take a look at three Berkshire holdings you may want to scoop up for yourself, and soon. They're mostly underperforming for now. But these stocks tend to be recession-resilient, and they could end up outperforming the broad market in the foreseeable future.1. Bank of AmericaAt first glance, there are some troubling indicators surrounding banks right now. Rising interest rates could crimp demand for loans, while a weakening economy dents borrowers' ability to make loan payments. Such an environment also sours the stock market, undermining the banking industry's investment-related businesses.But investors may be pricing in far more downside than is merited for banks at the same time they're overlooking the upsides of this situation.

The S&amp;P 500/SPX (SP500) dropped by approximately 20% from its mid-August high to its current bottom at 3,500. I called the August top in the &#34;Near-TermTop&#34; article and a series of other bearish articles I published around that time. I&#39;m not saying that the bear market is over or stocks are heading to the moon from here. However, now that the market is significantly lower, we could see another powerful countertrend rally ahead. The upcoming Fed rate hike is likely priced in, and we see earnings coming in better than expected. If the constructive earnings theme continues, we could see stocks rebound substantially in the coming weeks.</p><h2>Finally, A Technical Setup We Can Work With</h2><p><b>SPX 1-Year Chart</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bd9c457964a5ba46f6eba27977384030\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"676\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>SPX(StockCharts.com)</p><p>The SPX bear market decline has been about 27% from peak to trough. However, the SPX dropped by a whopping 20% since mid August. That&#39;s just two months. The SPX and stocks, in general, got severely oversold. We saw the RSI drop below 30, and the CCI dipped below 200, indicating extremely oversold market conditions. Perhaps most importantly, we witnessed a significant panic-driven reversal last Thursday. The market opened significantly lower with capitulation-style selling, but after the relentless selling, the buyers came in, reversing the market by nearly 200 points. We probably witnessed seller exhaustion, and around 3,500 many market participants did not want to sell anymore. Then the algos and the bulls took over, driving stocks to close at session highs. In short, we may have put in another near-term bottom, and we could see the SPX rally to the 3,800-4,000 resistance point from here and possibly higher after that.</p><h2>It&#39;s All About the Fed and Earnings Right Now</h2><p>While the near-term technical image has improved substantially, it&#39;s still all about the Fed and earnings going into November. Despite the higher-than-anticipated CPI reading and the better-than-expected employment report, the Fed will probably still hike interest rates by 75 basis points at the next meeting.</p><p><b>Rate Probabilities</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/33d3ae809e7a404a37b9739b9c0063bc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"496\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Rate probabilities(CMEGroup.com)</p><p>There&#39;s now about a 95% probability that the Fed will raise the benchmark to 3.75-4% (75 basis points) at the next FOMC meeting in roughly 16 days. While 95% is higher than the 50%-70% expectations we had in recent weeks, it was still likely that the Fed would make another 75 basis point move. Therefore, the market has been preparing for the rate hike in recent weeks, has dropped significantly, and the upcoming rate increase should be fully priced in by now. Moreover, once the Fed raises by 75 basis points at the next meeting, it will probably only move by 25-50 basis points at the December FOMC event, suggesting that we may get a significant relief rally after the Fed&#39;s decision on Nov. 2.</p><h2>Positive Earnings Are a Catalyst for Higher Stock Prices</h2><p>It&#39;s primarily about making or beating your earnings estimates at the end of the day. Forward guidance is an essential element, but I have not heard too much negative news from the recent bellwether names kicking off earnings season. On the contrary, we see banks and other significant corporations reporting better numbers than the street expected, and that&#39;s bullish for stocks.</p><p><b>Here&#39;s What We&#39;ve Seen So Far</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bd833be84335bd2b277665f4bcea5fc5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"573\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Earnings(Investing.com)</p><p>While it&#39;s not much, we see much better than expected results from big companies. I want to draw your attention to the big banks as they typically set the tone for the entire earnings season. Look at JPMorgan (JPM), Wells Fargo (WFC), Citigroup (C), Bank of America (BAC), and other smash earnings. This phenomenon implies that despite massive drops in stocks, the U.S. economy remains remarkably resilient, and we should see more upside for stocks in the weeks ahead. Moreover, it&#39;s not just the banks. Other companies are reporting better-than-expected earnings figures, and this trend should transition in the weeks ahead. Robust earnings from big tech companies and other bellwether names should fuel the recent rally further, leading to higher stock prices in the near term.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Wake Up: The Bear Market Rally Just Started</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\">\nWake Up: The Bear Market Rally Just Started\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-18 23:08 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4546969-bear-market-rally-just-started><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryThe S&P 500 dropped by a whopping 20% from its mid-August top two months ago.However, now that stock prices are much lower and the November Fed move is priced in, stocks may have another ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4546969-bear-market-rally-just-started\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index",".DJI":"道琼斯"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4546969-bear-market-rally-just-started","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1193778940","content_text":"SummaryThe S&P 500 dropped by a whopping 20% from its mid-August top two months ago.However, now that stock prices are much lower and the November Fed move is priced in, stocks may have another significant countertrend rally in the coming weeks.Moreover, big banks are coming out with better-than-expected earnings results, providing another constructive catalyst for stocks to move higher in the near term.I've made some instrumental portfolio adjustments around the recent lows and plan to continue beating the market in the coming weeks, quarters, and years.We've seen some exciting price action in recent weeks. The S&P 500/SPX (SP500) dropped by approximately 20% from its mid-August high to its current bottom at 3,500. I called the August top in the \"Near-TermTop\" article and a series of other bearish articles I published around that time. I'm not saying that the bear market is over or stocks are heading to the moon from here. However, now that the market is significantly lower, we could see another powerful countertrend rally ahead. The upcoming Fed rate hike is likely priced in, and we see earnings coming in better than expected. If the constructive earnings theme continues, we could see stocks rebound substantially in the coming weeks.Finally, A Technical Setup We Can Work WithSPX 1-Year ChartSPX(StockCharts.com)The SPX bear market decline has been about 27% from peak to trough. However, the SPX dropped by a whopping 20% since mid August. That's just two months. The SPX and stocks, in general, got severely oversold. We saw the RSI drop below 30, and the CCI dipped below 200, indicating extremely oversold market conditions. Perhaps most importantly, we witnessed a significant panic-driven reversal last Thursday. The market opened significantly lower with capitulation-style selling, but after the relentless selling, the buyers came in, reversing the market by nearly 200 points. We probably witnessed seller exhaustion, and around 3,500 many market participants did not want to sell anymore. Then the algos and the bulls took over, driving stocks to close at session highs. In short, we may have put in another near-term bottom, and we could see the SPX rally to the 3,800-4,000 resistance point from here and possibly higher after that.It's All About the Fed and Earnings Right NowWhile the near-term technical image has improved substantially, it's still all about the Fed and earnings going into November. Despite the higher-than-anticipated CPI reading and the better-than-expected employment report, the Fed will probably still hike interest rates by 75 basis points at the next meeting.Rate ProbabilitiesRate probabilities(CMEGroup.com)There's now about a 95% probability that the Fed will raise the benchmark to 3.75-4% (75 basis points) at the next FOMC meeting in roughly 16 days. While 95% is higher than the 50%-70% expectations we had in recent weeks, it was still likely that the Fed would make another 75 basis point move. Therefore, the market has been preparing for the rate hike in recent weeks, has dropped significantly, and the upcoming rate increase should be fully priced in by now. Moreover, once the Fed raises by 75 basis points at the next meeting, it will probably only move by 25-50 basis points at the December FOMC event, suggesting that we may get a significant relief rally after the Fed's decision on Nov. 2.Positive Earnings Are a Catalyst for Higher Stock PricesIt's primarily about making or beating your earnings estimates at the end of the day. Forward guidance is an essential element, but I have not heard too much negative news from the recent bellwether names kicking off earnings season. On the contrary, we see banks and other significant corporations reporting better numbers than the street expected, and that's bullish for stocks.Here's What We've Seen So FarEarnings(Investing.com)While it's not much, we see much better than expected results from big companies. I want to draw your attention to the big banks as they typically set the tone for the entire earnings season. Look at JPMorgan (JPM), Wells Fargo (WFC), Citigroup (C), Bank of America (BAC), and other smash earnings. This phenomenon implies that despite massive drops in stocks, the U.S. economy remains remarkably resilient, and we should see more upside for stocks in the weeks ahead. Moreover, it's not just the banks. Other companies are reporting better-than-expected earnings figures, and this trend should transition in the weeks ahead. Robust earnings from big tech companies and other bellwether names should fuel the recent rally further, leading to higher stock prices in the near term.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":396,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9936240689,"gmtCreate":1662776142242,"gmtModify":1676537138720,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573590765333740","authorIdStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Captain Doge speaking.

Forty percent saw it going the other way. It was around $21,850 late Friday afternoon, ending the week up over 12%.Big DropInvestors think Bitcoin is heading lowerSource: MLIV Pulse Survey running July 5th to 8th. Respondents were asked: \"Which level will Bitcoin trade at first? $10k or $30k\"The lopsided prediction underscores how bearish investors have become. The crypto industry has been rocked by troubled lenders, collapsed currencies, and an end to the easy money policies of the pandemic that fueled a speculative frenzy in financial markets.Some $2 trillion has vanished from the market value of cryptocurrencies since late last year, according to data compiled by CoinGecko.Retail investors were more apprehensive about cryptocurrencies than their institutional counterparts, with almost a quarter declaring the asset class to be garbage. Professional investors were more open-minded toward digital assets.But overall, this sector remains a polarizing one: while some 28% of the overall respondents expressed strong confidence that cryptocurrencies are the future of finance, 20% said they’re worthless.Crypto AnxiousMost respondents were at least slightly skeptical about cryptocurrenciesSource: MLIV Pulse Survey running July 5th to 8th. Respondents were asked: \"In relation to cryptocurrencies, which of the below best describes your attitude\"Bitcoin has already lost more than two-thirds of its value since hitting nearly $69,000 in November and hasn’t traded as low as $10,000 since September 2020.“It’s very easy to be fearful right now, not only in crypto, but generally in the world,” said Jared Madfes, partner at Tribe Capital, a venture capital firm. He said the expectations for a further drop in Bitcoin reflect “people’s inherent fear in the market.”The crypto crash is likely to put further pressures on governments to step up regulations of the industry. Such supervision is seen as positive by majority of respondents, since it could improve confidence and lead to broader acceptance among institutional and retail investors.Government intervention will also probably be welcomed by consumers burned by the collapse of so-called stablecoin TerraUSD and troubled middlemen like Celsius Network and broker Voyager Digital Ltd.Central banks are also considering developing their own digital currencies for use in digital payments.But neither the recent price drops -- nor the potential challenge from central banks -- are expected to significantly upend the industry by dethroning the two dominant tokens, Bitcoin and Ether. A majority of respondents anticipate that one of those two will remain a driving force in five years even while a significant share sees central bank digital currencies taking on a key role.“Bitcoin still is powering large parts of the cryptoverse, while Ethereum is losing its lead,” said Ed Moya, senior market analyst at Oanda Corp., a foreign-exchange broker.There was a broader consensus about one corner of the market: Nonfungible tokens. NFTs became famous for attraction valuations in the millions of dollars for pictures of monkeys during the height of the crypto boom. But the overwhelming majority of those surveyed consider them to be just art projects or status symbols, with only 9% seeing them as an investment opportunity.Moreover, those hunting for the next asset-price bubble may do well to look elsewhere, since speculative manias rarely strike the same asset class twice.

Above a bronze samovar, a flat screen television shows the proprietor’s corporate crest: a green “F” on a green shield.</p>\n<p>Few can explain exactly what’s going on here — how an obscure brokerage in Kazakhstan, of all places, has outrun Wall Street firms.</p>\n<p>But outrun them it has, and then some, at least in the stock market. Over the past couple of years, the share price ofFreedom Holding Corp.– the company whose “F” logo is on that green crest — has soared about 500%.</p>\n<p>How? The young billionaire with the answers, Timur Turlov, is sitting at the table over there. Wearing a tailored blue suit and sipping a Red Bull, Turlov, 33, sketches out a grand vision for the broker.</p>\n<p>“We remain one of the few floodgates to the Western market for customers from our region,” Turlov says in his native Russian, while detailing the unique arrangement he says has helped secure Freedom access to newly listed U.S. stocks.</p>\n<p>There’s a mysterious&nbsp;hedge fund with deep connections across Wall Street; a trading conduit through Belize that Turlov personally controls; an obscure New York brokerage with a troubled past.</p>\n<p>According to Turlov, founder of Freedom, this setup has&nbsp;secured access to hot new stocks in America, a pitch that helped make his company’s name.&nbsp;Freedom, he says, is giving Russians, Kazakhs, Uzbeks and Ukrainians a piece of the Wall Street action.</p>\n<p>One more twist: the more shares in Freedom&nbsp;his clients buy, the more of those hot U.S. stocks they will get, Bloomberg has previously reported.</p>\n<p>According to Freedom marketing materials, clients have gotten in on more than 100 U.S. IPOs since 2020, including Airbnb Inc., Bumble Inc. and South Korean e-commerce giantCoupang Inc.Such access is virtually impossible for small brokers and wealth managers who are actually based in the U.S. to secure.</p>\n<p>Turlov says his firm’s way in is an affiliate of a hedge fund that buys the shares from underwriters and passes them along. Its identity&nbsp;is confidential, he says, and no mention of it appears in U.S. filings. Even inside Freedom, the name is closely guarded, according to current and former employees.</p>\n<p>The arrangement is unusual, to say the least. Reena Aggarwal, director of Georgetown University’s Center for Financial Markets &amp; Policy, says she’s never seen anything like it.</p>\n<p>Freedom is doing it all under the gaze of U.S. authorities. The group&nbsp;is based in Almaty but its listed entity is registered in Las Vegas. Its stock is traded on the Nasdaq, where the company is currently worth about $4 billion.</p>\n<p>Inside the T-Club, Turlov’s smartphone keeps buzzing. Tall and boyish-looking, in a purple&nbsp;tie, Turlov turns serious as he outlines Freedom’s ambitions. In January, it acquired New York-based broker Prime Executions Inc., and Turlov says he’s looking to expand further. In June, Standard &amp; Poor’s said it expected Freedom’s “robust earnings” to continue at least into 2022.</p>\n<p>Kazakhstan Economy</p>\n<p>To the uninitiated, Kazakhstan may be best known for “Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan,” the 2006 Sacha Baron Cohen comedy that so infuriated the Kazakh government.</p>\n<p>But this Central Asian nation of 19 million is one of the most prosperous former Soviet republics. Its mineral and oil wealth has added to the region’s&nbsp;affluent elite, many of whom are eager to play the markets. Sensing opportunity, Turlov founded Freedom in 2008.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2ff198d3f20f497b8c655ea2786bcfe3\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"667\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>The skyline of Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan.Photographer: Taylor Wiedman/Bloomberg</span></p>\n<p>Today his firm has around 100 branches and offices, from the Kazakh capital Nur-Sultan, to the Russian resort city of Sochi, to Kyiv in Ukraine. Freedom is headquartered in the tallest building in Almaty, a glass-and-steel skyscraper next to a shopping mall with luxury boutiques like Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Prada.</p>\n<p>A Moscow native and citizen of Russia -- and also St. Kitts and Nevis in the Caribbean&nbsp;— Turlov controls almost&nbsp;three quarters of Freedom. As the company’s stock price has soared, he’s become a billionaire several times over.</p>\n<p>Minting Money</p>\n<p>The IPO business may attract the most attention, but Turlov says it is an increasingly marginal part of the business. He says Freedom doesn’t receive significant allocations&nbsp;and&nbsp;today the business makes up only about 10% of Freedom’s revenue.</p>\n<p>Freedom Holding has been minting money nonetheless, with&nbsp;customers gravitating&nbsp;to trading stocks and fixed income investments. Its pre-tax profit jumped more than six-fold to $173 million in the fiscal year ended March 31. During the same&nbsp;period, the number of its customer accounts doubled, to 290,000 — a huge figure for the region, albeit a pittance next to the 22.5 million at newly public Robinhood Markets Inc.</p>\n<p>Turlov’s own profile has also soared. In 2018, he backed “Financier,” a glossy financial drama (think an Almaty-based “Margin Call”). One of the brokerages in the film, Partner Finance, sports a logo similar to Freedom’s.</p>\n<p>His larger-than-life image continues to draw clients — as does hoped-for access to myriad U.S. listings. A section of Freedom’swebsitelays out the pitch. “Buy stocks at their initial price before trading begins,” it runs. “Prices can grow by tens or even hundreds of percent!”</p>\n<p>This ability to access IPOs “is Freedom’s specialty, their absolute advantage,” said Daniyar Temirbayev, who heads the Qazaq Association of Minority Shareholders, a lobbying group for investors in the country’s burgeoning stock market.</p>\n<p>Four Freedom customers interviewed by Bloomberg, who all asked not to be identified, confirmed they received allocations to U.S. IPOs -- and that they bought Freedom shares to increase their allocations.</p>\n<p>Oversubscribed IPOs</p>\n<p>Exactly how Turlov does all of this remains a puzzle to outsiders. Most U.S. IPOs are oversubscribed. Everyone wants to get in early in case a stock pops on the first trading day, and Wall Street banks typically dole out stocks to favored clients first. Hedge funds and big mutual funds typically take 90%, according to Jay Ritter, a finance professor at University of Florida in Gainsville.</p>\n<p>What are the odds an obscure player like Freedom could get in early?</p>\n<p>“Zero,” Ritter says.</p>\n<p>But Turlov says this is where his workaround comes in. In the T-Club, where entry is restricted to Freedom’s employees and high-rolling clients, he reveals key parts of the Freedom system.</p>\n<p>Belize Affiliates</p>\n<p>One is a Belize-based affiliate of the aforementioned hedge fund, which Turlov says buys the stocks from major underwriters. Another is a Belize-based affiliate of Freedom that Turlov personally owns. Once the hedge fund affiliate&nbsp;gets its hands on a stock, Turlov has that Belize-registered entity, FFIN Brokerage Services Inc., buy it and eventually pass it to Freedom for a fee.</p>\n<p>Freedom customers don’t actually get their hands on the stocks for three months, an eternity in the world of IPOs. During the lock-up period, they can buy a derivative from Freedom to fix the share price where they want.</p>\n<p>The hedge fund’s affiliate collects a commission, safe in the knowledge that Freedom clients won’t be able to flip the stock quickly, Turlov says.</p>\n<p>According to Scott Moss, a partner at law firm Lowenstein Sandler LLP in New York, hedge funds rarely if ever act as someone else’s broker because of potential regulatory hassles.</p>\n<p>“As a hedge fund manager, I would have huge reputational risk,” said Carsten Kotas, professor of business administration at FOM University in Frankfurt and a former trader who previously oversaw hedge funds at HSBC Holdings Plc.</p>\n<p>The Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority declined to comment on Freedom’s business practices.</p>\n<p>Most of the IPOs that Freedom has accessed so far this year have been overseen by Goldman Sachs Group Inc.,JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co.and Morgan Stanley. Spokespeople for the firms declined to comment on whether they were aware of any relationship between their clients and Freedom.</p>\n<p>Demand from customers far outstrips supply, so Freedom has started a$625&nbsp;millionfund traded in Russia and Kazakhstan, whose holdings include some of the IPO securities — and also holds Russian sovereign debt. It was created to enable more clients to get exposure to recently listed companies, according to Turlov.</p>\n<p>Lek Securities</p>\n<p>Turlov names another cog in his operation:Lek Securities Corp., a New York-based brokerage.

Above a bronze samovar, a flat screen television shows the proprietor’s corporate crest: a green “F” on a green shield.\nFew can explain exactly what’s going on here — how an obscure brokerage in Kazakhstan, of all places, has outrun Wall Street firms.\nBut outrun them it has, and then some, at least in the stock market. Over the past couple of years, the share price ofFreedom Holding Corp.– the company whose “F” logo is on that green crest — has soared about 500%.\nHow? The young billionaire with the answers, Timur Turlov, is sitting at the table over there. Wearing a tailored blue suit and sipping a Red Bull, Turlov, 33, sketches out a grand vision for the broker.\n“We remain one of the few floodgates to the Western market for customers from our region,” Turlov says in his native Russian, while detailing the unique arrangement he says has helped secure Freedom access to newly listed U.S. stocks.\nThere’s a mysterious hedge fund with deep connections across Wall Street; a trading conduit through Belize that Turlov personally controls; an obscure New York brokerage with a troubled past.\nAccording to Turlov, founder of Freedom, this setup has secured access to hot new stocks in America, a pitch that helped make his company’s name. Freedom, he says, is giving Russians, Kazakhs, Uzbeks and Ukrainians a piece of the Wall Street action.\nOne more twist: the more shares in Freedom his clients buy, the more of those hot U.S. stocks they will get, Bloomberg has previously reported.\nAccording to Freedom marketing materials, clients have gotten in on more than 100 U.S. IPOs since 2020, including Airbnb Inc., Bumble Inc. and South Korean e-commerce giantCoupang Inc.Such access is virtually impossible for small brokers and wealth managers who are actually based in the U.S. to secure.\nTurlov says his firm’s way in is an affiliate of a hedge fund that buys the shares from underwriters and passes them along. Its identity is confidential, he says, and no mention of it appears in U.S. filings. Even inside Freedom, the name is closely guarded, according to current and former employees.\nThe arrangement is unusual, to say the least. Reena Aggarwal, director of Georgetown University’s Center for Financial Markets & Policy, says she’s never seen anything like it.\nFreedom is doing it all under the gaze of U.S. authorities. The group is based in Almaty but its listed entity is registered in Las Vegas. Its stock is traded on the Nasdaq, where the company is currently worth about $4 billion.\nInside the T-Club, Turlov’s smartphone keeps buzzing. Tall and boyish-looking, in a purple tie, Turlov turns serious as he outlines Freedom’s ambitions. In January, it acquired New York-based broker Prime Executions Inc., and Turlov says he’s looking to expand further. In June, Standard & Poor’s said it expected Freedom’s “robust earnings” to continue at least into 2022.\nKazakhstan Economy\nTo the uninitiated, Kazakhstan may be best known for “Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan,” the 2006 Sacha Baron Cohen comedy that so infuriated the Kazakh government.\nBut this Central Asian nation of 19 million is one of the most prosperous former Soviet republics. Its mineral and oil wealth has added to the region’s affluent elite, many of whom are eager to play the markets. Sensing opportunity, Turlov founded Freedom in 2008.\nThe skyline of Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan.Photographer: Taylor Wiedman/Bloomberg\nToday his firm has around 100 branches and offices, from the Kazakh capital Nur-Sultan, to the Russian resort city of Sochi, to Kyiv in Ukraine. Freedom is headquartered in the tallest building in Almaty, a glass-and-steel skyscraper next to a shopping mall with luxury boutiques like Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Prada.\nA Moscow native and citizen of Russia -- and also St. Kitts and Nevis in the Caribbean — Turlov controls almost three quarters of Freedom. As the company’s stock price has soared, he’s become a billionaire several times over.\nMinting Money\nThe IPO business may attract the most attention, but Turlov says it is an increasingly marginal part of the business. He says Freedom doesn’t receive significant allocations and today the business makes up only about 10% of Freedom’s revenue.\nFreedom Holding has been minting money nonetheless, with customers gravitating to trading stocks and fixed income investments. Its pre-tax profit jumped more than six-fold to $173 million in the fiscal year ended March 31. During the same period, the number of its customer accounts doubled, to 290,000 — a huge figure for the region, albeit a pittance next to the 22.5 million at newly public Robinhood Markets Inc.\nTurlov’s own profile has also soared. In 2018, he backed “Financier,” a glossy financial drama (think an Almaty-based “Margin Call”). One of the brokerages in the film, Partner Finance, sports a logo similar to Freedom’s.\nHis larger-than-life image continues to draw clients — as does hoped-for access to myriad U.S. listings. A section of Freedom’swebsitelays out the pitch. “Buy stocks at their initial price before trading begins,” it runs. “Prices can grow by tens or even hundreds of percent!”\nThis ability to access IPOs “is Freedom’s specialty, their absolute advantage,” said Daniyar Temirbayev, who heads the Qazaq Association of Minority Shareholders, a lobbying group for investors in the country’s burgeoning stock market.\nFour Freedom customers interviewed by Bloomberg, who all asked not to be identified, confirmed they received allocations to U.S. IPOs -- and that they bought Freedom shares to increase their allocations.\nOversubscribed IPOs\nExactly how Turlov does all of this remains a puzzle to outsiders. Most U.S. IPOs are oversubscribed. Everyone wants to get in early in case a stock pops on the first trading day, and Wall Street banks typically dole out stocks to favored clients first. Hedge funds and big mutual funds typically take 90%, according to Jay Ritter, a finance professor at University of Florida in Gainsville.\nWhat are the odds an obscure player like Freedom could get in early?\n“Zero,” Ritter says.\nBut Turlov says this is where his workaround comes in. In the T-Club, where entry is restricted to Freedom’s employees and high-rolling clients, he reveals key parts of the Freedom system.\nBelize Affiliates\nOne is a Belize-based affiliate of the aforementioned hedge fund, which Turlov says buys the stocks from major underwriters. Another is a Belize-based affiliate of Freedom that Turlov personally owns. Once the hedge fund affiliate gets its hands on a stock, Turlov has that Belize-registered entity, FFIN Brokerage Services Inc., buy it and eventually pass it to Freedom for a fee.\nFreedom customers don’t actually get their hands on the stocks for three months, an eternity in the world of IPOs. During the lock-up period, they can buy a derivative from Freedom to fix the share price where they want.\nThe hedge fund’s affiliate collects a commission, safe in the knowledge that Freedom clients won’t be able to flip the stock quickly, Turlov says.\nAccording to Scott Moss, a partner at law firm Lowenstein Sandler LLP in New York, hedge funds rarely if ever act as someone else’s broker because of potential regulatory hassles.\n“As a hedge fund manager, I would have huge reputational risk,” said Carsten Kotas, professor of business administration at FOM University in Frankfurt and a former trader who previously oversaw hedge funds at HSBC Holdings Plc.\nThe Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority declined to comment on Freedom’s business practices.\nMost of the IPOs that Freedom has accessed so far this year have been overseen by Goldman Sachs Group Inc.,JPMorgan Chase & Co.and Morgan Stanley. Spokespeople for the firms declined to comment on whether they were aware of any relationship between their clients and Freedom.\nDemand from customers far outstrips supply, so Freedom has started a$625 millionfund traded in Russia and Kazakhstan, whose holdings include some of the IPO securities — and also holds Russian sovereign debt. It was created to enable more clients to get exposure to recently listed companies, according to Turlov.\nLek Securities\nTurlov names another cog in his operation:Lek Securities Corp., a New York-based brokerage. Lek’s U.K. entity temporarily holds the IPO shares purchased by the hedge fund, he says. Freedom’s European subsidiary routes the vast majority of its trades to Lek, regulatory filings show. The New York broker, small by comparison with Wall Street banks, is also one of the most active traders of many of the IPO stocks that Freedom says it has accessed, Bloomberg data show.\nLek has had run ins with U.S. regulators, including 2017 allegations that the brokerage had enabled manipulative trading by a client in Ukraine that resulted in almost $30 million of illicit profits. Lek was fined about $3 million in 2019 and founder Sam Lek was permanently banned from the securities industry.\nMore trouble emerged in 2018 when FINRA alleged that Lek Securities had allowed customers with dicey backgrounds to engage in some $100 million of penny-stock trades despite “numerous red flags” of potential fraud. Calling the firm a “recidivist violator” of rules, Finra fined it $200,000 in 2019.\nSamuel Lek’s son Charles, who now runs the business, declined to comment.\nFreedom isn’t linked to the above allegations but its own operations have drawn questions. The Foundation for Financial Journalism, a non-profit supporting investigative journalism, published areportlast week examining Freedom’s corporate arrangements including Lek, various related party transactions and the execution process for the trades of its customers.\nTurlov says skepticism about Freedom is inevitable. People envy his success.\n“Almost any situation can become the basis for criticism,” he says.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":480,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":800446693,"gmtCreate":1627314707512,"gmtModify":1703487527420,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573590765333740","authorIdStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Earnings day.

There were generally clear skies with a few patchy clouds on a cool morning for the launch.</p>\n<p>The 57-year-old American billionaire is flying on a planned 11-minute voyage to the edge of space, nine days after Briton Richard Branson was aboard his competing space tourism company Virgin Galactic's successful inaugural suborbital flightherefrom New Mexico.</p>\n<p>Bezos, wearing a blue flight suit and cowboy hat, and the other passengers climbed into an SUV vehicle for a short drive to the launch pad before walking up a tower and getting aboard the gleaming white spacecraft, with a blue feather design on its side. Each passenger rang a shiny bell before boarding the craft’s capsule.</p>\n<p>“They are in for the flight of a lifetime,” launch presenter Ariane Cornell of Blue Origin said on a live webcast.</p>\n<p>Branson got to space first, but Bezos is due to fly higher - 62 miles (100 km) for Blue Origin compared to 53 miles (86 km) for Virgin Galactic - in what experts call the world's firsthereunpiloted space flight with an all-civilian crew. It represents Blue Origin's first crewed flight to space.</p>\n<p>Bezos, founder of ecommerce company Amazon.com Inc, and his brother Mark Bezos, a private equity executive, were joined by two others. Pioneering female aviator Wally Funkhere, 82, and recent high school graduate Oliver Daemenhere, 18, are becoming the oldest and youngest people to reach space.</p>\n<p>The flight coincides with the anniversary of Americans Neil Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin becoming the first humans to walk on the moon, on July 20, 1969. New Shepard is named for Alan Shepard, who in 1961 became the first American in space.</p>\n<p>Funk was one of the so-called Mercury 13 group of women who trained to become NASA astronauts in the early 1960s but was passed over because of her gender. Daemen, Blue Origin’s first paying customer, is set to study physics and innovation management in the Netherlands. His father, who heads investment management firm Somerset Capital Partners, was on site to watch his son fly to space.</p>\n<p>The launch was being witnessed by members of the Bezos family and Blue Origin employees, and a few spectators gathered along the highway before dawn.</p>\n<p><b>MINUTES OF WEIGHTLESSNESS</b></p>\n<p>New Shepard is a 60-foot-tall (18.3-meters-tall) and fully autonomous rocket-and-capsule combo that cannot be piloted from inside the spacecraft. It is completely computer-flown and had none of Blue Origin's staff astronautshereor trained personnel onboard.</p>\n<p>Virgin Galactic used a space plane with a pair of pilots onboard.</p>\n<p>New Shepard was designed to hurtle at speeds upwards of 2,200 miles (3,540 km) per hour to an altitude of about 62 miles (100 km), the so-called Kármán line set by an international aeronautics body as defining the boundary between Earth’s atmosphere and space.</p>\n<p>After the capsule separates from the booster, the crew was due to have unbuckled for a few minutes of weightlessness. Then the capsule was due to fall back to Earth under parachutes, using a last-minute retro-thrust system that expels a “pillow of air” for a soft landing in the Texas desert.</p>\n<p>The reusable booster had previously flown twice to space.</p>\n<p>The launch represented another step in the race to establish a space tourism sector that Swiss investment bank UBS estimates will reach $3 billion annually in a decade. Another billionaire tech mogul, Elon Musk, plans to send an all-civilian crew on a several-day orbital mission on his Crew Dragon capsule in September.</p>\n<p>On Twitter, Musk wishedbit.ly/2TqOL9Ithe Blue Origin crew \"best of luck\" hours before the launch.</p>\n<p>Blue Origin aims for the first of two more passenger flights this year to happen in September or October.</p>\n<p>Blue Origin appears to have a reservoir of future customers. More than 6,000 people from at least 143 countries entered an auction to become the first paying customer.

The market environment is more than a little rocky this year, though, and Buffett&#39;s philosophy is proving itself once again. Whereas the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> has been rather deep in the red over the past year of trading, <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b> stock is basically breaking even.</p><p>Translation: Given enough time, the all-weather Warren Buffett way still works.</p><p>Let&#39;s take a look at three Berkshire holdings you may want to scoop up for yourself, and soon. They&#39;re mostly underperforming for now. But these stocks tend to be recession-resilient, and they could end up outperforming the broad market in the foreseeable future.</p><h2>1. Bank of America</h2><p>At first glance, there are some troubling indicators surrounding banks right now. Rising interest rates could crimp demand for loans, while a weakening economy dents borrowers&#39; ability to make loan payments. Such an environment also sours the stock market, undermining the banking industry&#39;s investment-related businesses.</p><p>But investors may be pricing in far more downside than is merited for banks at the same time they&#39;re overlooking the upsides of this situation. That&#39;s arguably what&#39;s happening with <b>Bank of America</b> shares anyway.</p><p>Yes, last quarter&#39;s results showed a sizable uptick in provisions for losses on loans that may be in the cards, and per-share earnings fell from $0.85 to only $0.81 per share. That&#39;s quite possibly the worst trouble the bank&#39;s facing though. Even the company&#39;s investment management operation more or less matched this year&#39;s second-quarter results as well as the year-ago Q3 results during the third quarter of this year despite the broader market&#39;s poor performance.</p><p>Indeed, things may even be looking up very soon for Buffett&#39;s beaten-down $133 billion Bank of America position, which accounts for more than a tenth of his total stock holdings.</p><p>Although Bank of America is likely to make far fewer loans within the next few months than it has during the past few months, the net profitability of those loans should be much greater than the bank&#39;s current loan portfolio. In a recent interview with Yahoo! Finance, CEO Brian Moynihan pointed out that continued increases in interest rates could add another billion dollars worth of profitability to the company&#39;s current bottom line. That would bolster net interest income that was already up 24% year over year last quarter.</p><p>It&#39;s a possibility, however, that&#39;s only recent begun to be reflected in the stock&#39;s rebound effort from a sell-off that dragged it 40% below February&#39;s peak price. Still down 20% year to date though, the bounce since October&#39;s low may be a sign that the market is finally starting to right-price this ticker headed into November.</p><h2>2. Coca-Cola</h2><p>The recession-related risk of losing a job may prompt some people to cancel a vacation or postpone the purchase of a new car. Economic weakness and burgeoning inflation, however, typically don&#39;t cause consumers to stop buying their favorite beverages.</p><p>Enter<b> Coca-Cola</b>, which is doing just fine at a time when most companies aren&#39;t. Last quarter&#39;s organic revenue was up 16% on a 4% increase in unit volume, meaning the beverage giant is successfully passing along its higher costs to its customers. The company also managed to gain market share in a very crowded drinks market. And, given all that its management knows right now, Coca-Cola is still looking for solid single-digit revenue and earnings growth for the upcoming year despite broad economic headwinds.</p><p>This loyalty makes sense. Coca-Cola is one of the world&#39;s most recognized and beloved brand names, and being in business for 136 years means it&#39;s had plenty of time to become a fixture of the global culture. Christmas ornaments, clothing, toys, and home decor are just some of non-beverage goods that regularly borrow the Coca-Cola logo and colors, reflecting the planet&#39;s affinity for the brand outside of beverages.</p><p>Of course, The Coca-Cola Company isn&#39;t just its namesake cola anymore. The company reaches plenty of non-soda drinkers as well; it also owns Dasani water, Gold Peak tea, and Minute Maid juices, just to name a few.</p><p>Perhaps the real upside to new investors, however, is the nuance that Buffett likes most about this particular Berkshire holding. That&#39;s the dividend -- and its reliable growth -- that keeps on coming even in lousy environments. The quarterly payout has not only been paid like clockwork for decades now, but the annual dividend payment has been upped every year for the past 60 years.  Thanks to the stock&#39;s relative weakness this year, you can step into this stock right now while its yield is an above-average 3%.</p><h2>3. American Express</h2><p>Finally, add <b>American Express</b> to your list of Buffett stocks to buy sooner than later, while you can still buy it 26% below February&#39;s peak.</p><p>On the surface, it&#39;s just another credit company. Dig deeper, though, and it&#39;s much more. Whereas competitors like <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a></b> and <b>Mastercard</b> provide a payments processing platform for card issuers, American Express builds and operates its own robust charge-card ecosystem. The bulk of the company&#39;s personal and business charge cards impose an annual fee, but it&#39;s a fee its customers gladly pay in exchange for incredible perks. The Platinum Card, for instance, offers access to select airport lounges, while the Gold Card offers outright credits for <b>Uber Technology</b>&#39;s ride-hailing services.</p><p>And this ecosystem of benefits is no small matter.</p><p>The company earns interest income like any other lender and collects the usual transaction fees for facilitating the purchase of goods and services. But it also generates a great deal of service and card-fee income. Roughly 10% of last quarter&#39;s top line came from cardholders&#39; payments just for the privilege of holding an American Express charge card.</p><p>Of course, the economic turbulence could rattle consumers&#39; spending and prompt some to cancel credit cards that incur an annual fee. But that&#39;s not as likely as you might suspect.</p><p>Aside from the fact that American Express cardholders really, <i>really</i> love their rewards programs -- in August, J.D. Power ranked American Express highest for customer satisfaction for a third year in a row -- credit cards aren&#39;t just for splurging anymore. They&#39;re increasingly being used as an alternative to cash to buy everyday goods. In this vein, American Express has collected nearly $38.7 billion in net revenue through the first three quarters of this year, up 30% from where it was at this time of year in pre-pandemic 2019. Analysts are calling for top-line growth of 11% next year, too, despite the brewing economic headwind.

The market environment is more than a little rocky this year, though, and Buffett's philosophy is proving itself once again. Whereas the S&P 500 has been rather deep in the red over the past year of trading, Berkshire Hathaway stock is basically breaking even.Translation: Given enough time, the all-weather Warren Buffett way still works.Let's take a look at three Berkshire holdings you may want to scoop up for yourself, and soon. They're mostly underperforming for now. But these stocks tend to be recession-resilient, and they could end up outperforming the broad market in the foreseeable future.1. Bank of AmericaAt first glance, there are some troubling indicators surrounding banks right now. Rising interest rates could crimp demand for loans, while a weakening economy dents borrowers' ability to make loan payments. Such an environment also sours the stock market, undermining the banking industry's investment-related businesses.But investors may be pricing in far more downside than is merited for banks at the same time they're overlooking the upsides of this situation. That's arguably what's happening with Bank of America shares anyway.Yes, last quarter's results showed a sizable uptick in provisions for losses on loans that may be in the cards, and per-share earnings fell from $0.85 to only $0.81 per share. That's quite possibly the worst trouble the bank's facing though. Even the company's investment management operation more or less matched this year's second-quarter results as well as the year-ago Q3 results during the third quarter of this year despite the broader market's poor performance.Indeed, things may even be looking up very soon for Buffett's beaten-down $133 billion Bank of America position, which accounts for more than a tenth of his total stock holdings.Although Bank of America is likely to make far fewer loans within the next few months than it has during the past few months, the net profitability of those loans should be much greater than the bank's current loan portfolio. In a recent interview with Yahoo! Finance, CEO Brian Moynihan pointed out that continued increases in interest rates could add another billion dollars worth of profitability to the company's current bottom line. That would bolster net interest income that was already up 24% year over year last quarter.It's a possibility, however, that's only recent begun to be reflected in the stock's rebound effort from a sell-off that dragged it 40% below February's peak price. Still down 20% year to date though, the bounce since October's low may be a sign that the market is finally starting to right-price this ticker headed into November.2. Coca-ColaThe recession-related risk of losing a job may prompt some people to cancel a vacation or postpone the purchase of a new car. Economic weakness and burgeoning inflation, however, typically don't cause consumers to stop buying their favorite beverages.Enter Coca-Cola, which is doing just fine at a time when most companies aren't. Last quarter's organic revenue was up 16% on a 4% increase in unit volume, meaning the beverage giant is successfully passing along its higher costs to its customers. The company also managed to gain market share in a very crowded drinks market. And, given all that its management knows right now, Coca-Cola is still looking for solid single-digit revenue and earnings growth for the upcoming year despite broad economic headwinds.This loyalty makes sense. Coca-Cola is one of the world's most recognized and beloved brand names, and being in business for 136 years means it's had plenty of time to become a fixture of the global culture. Christmas ornaments, clothing, toys, and home decor are just some of non-beverage goods that regularly borrow the Coca-Cola logo and colors, reflecting the planet's affinity for the brand outside of beverages.Of course, The Coca-Cola Company isn't just its namesake cola anymore. The company reaches plenty of non-soda drinkers as well; it also owns Dasani water, Gold Peak tea, and Minute Maid juices, just to name a few.Perhaps the real upside to new investors, however, is the nuance that Buffett likes most about this particular Berkshire holding. That's the dividend -- and its reliable growth -- that keeps on coming even in lousy environments. The quarterly payout has not only been paid like clockwork for decades now, but the annual dividend payment has been upped every year for the past 60 years.  Thanks to the stock's relative weakness this year, you can step into this stock right now while its yield is an above-average 3%.3. American ExpressFinally, add American Express to your list of Buffett stocks to buy sooner than later, while you can still buy it 26% below February's peak.On the surface, it's just another credit company. Dig deeper, though, and it's much more. Whereas competitors like Visa and Mastercard provide a payments processing platform for card issuers, American Express builds and operates its own robust charge-card ecosystem. The bulk of the company's personal and business charge cards impose an annual fee, but it's a fee its customers gladly pay in exchange for incredible perks. The Platinum Card, for instance, offers access to select airport lounges, while the Gold Card offers outright credits for Uber Technology's ride-hailing services.And this ecosystem of benefits is no small matter.The company earns interest income like any other lender and collects the usual transaction fees for facilitating the purchase of goods and services. But it also generates a great deal of service and card-fee income. Roughly 10% of last quarter's top line came from cardholders' payments just for the privilege of holding an American Express charge card.Of course, the economic turbulence could rattle consumers' spending and prompt some to cancel credit cards that incur an annual fee. But that's not as likely as you might suspect.Aside from the fact that American Express cardholders really, really love their rewards programs -- in August, J.D. Power ranked American Express highest for customer satisfaction for a third year in a row -- credit cards aren't just for splurging anymore. They're increasingly being used as an alternative to cash to buy everyday goods. In this vein, American Express has collected nearly $38.7 billion in net revenue through the first three quarters of this year, up 30% from where it was at this time of year in pre-pandemic 2019. Analysts are calling for top-line growth of 11% next year, too, despite the brewing economic headwind. That's more than many other companies will be able to produce.You won't want to tarry if you agree with the bigger-picture bullish premise either. While the stock's deep in the red for the year, American Express and now both Mastercard and Visa all agreed in their most recent earnings reports that consumer spending is remaining surprisingly firm. The market hasn't been pricing these stocks accordingly, but may well do that beginning in November now that all three players are singing the same chorus.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":553,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160074491,"gmtCreate":1623767949213,"gmtModify":1703818838169,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573590765333740","idStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes, cargo market will be in demand before leisure travel can resume","listText":"Yes, cargo market will be in demand before leisure travel can resume","text":"Yes, cargo market will be in demand before leisure travel can resume","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/160074491","repostId":"1187102856","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1187102856","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623767520,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1187102856?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-15 22:32","market":"uk","language":"en","title":"Airbus hints at a freighter version of its A350 to tap into hot cargo market","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1187102856","media":"cnbc","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nThe European manufacturer says it is considering a wide-body freighter.\nChief Commercial","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nThe European manufacturer says it is considering a wide-body freighter.\nChief Commercial Officer Christian Scherer said Airbus \"underserves\" the freighter market.\nBoeing aircraft dominates...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/15/airbus-hints-at-freighter-version-of-a350-to-tap-into-hot-cargo-market.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;

Please note that VAERS is a national early warning system to detect possible safety problems in U.S. licensed vaccines. The number of cases increased further after the second dose of these vaccines. Moreover, the cases occurred in higher number of younger patients following dose 2 compared to dose 1. The CDC stated that similar inflammation cases were not reported following vaccination with <b>J&amp;J</b>’s JNJ adenovirus-based COVID-19 vaccine.</p><h3>Israeli Alarm</h3><p>Per a Reuters report, the Israel’s Health Ministry raised the alarm when it reported a likely link of heart inflammation in young men vaccinated with Pfizer’s BNT162b earlier this month. Following this report, the CDC and health regulators in other countries started investigating such cases.</p><p>Although the number of reported cases is small compared to total inoculations with mRNA vaccines, they were higher than expected in the younger age groups.</p><h3>CDC Meeting</h3><p>We note that the CDC is yet to link these adverse events to mRNA vaccines and has scheduled a meeting of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) on Jun 18 to discuss and assess the heart inflammation reports. Moreover, the government authority has recommended continuation of vaccination for everyone of age 12 or older given the risk of COVID-19 illness and related complications.</p><p>However, we note that the CDC report also stated that more than 50% of heart inflammation cases were reported in the age group of 12-24 that has received only 8.8% of vaccine doses. This suggests that any adverse outcome from the ACIP meeting scheduled next week can hamper vaccination with mRNA vaccines in the adolescent patient group, and hurt prospects of these vaccine developers. However, the percentage of inflammation cases suggests that the risk from these vaccines is significantly lower than their benefits. A CDC study claims that these vaccines are 91% effective. Moreover, most patients facing inflammation issues quickly felt better following medication and rest.</p><h3>mRNA Vaccine Updates</h3><p>We remind investors that Pfizer/BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine received authorization for emergency use in adolescents last month from the FDA. Moderna filed for a similar authorization in the United States, Europe and Canada earlier this month.</p><p>Meanwhile, Pfizer and BioNTech have pledged two billion doses of their COVID-19 vaccines to ensure equitable access to their vaccines globally. As part of the pledge, the company plans to supply 200 million doses in 2021 and 300 million doses in the first half of 2022 to the U.S. government at not-for-profit price.

Please note that VAERS is a national early warning system to detect possible safety problems in U.S. licensed vaccines. The number of cases increased further after the second dose of these vaccines. Moreover, the cases occurred in higher number of younger patients following dose 2 compared to dose 1. The CDC stated that similar inflammation cases were not reported following vaccination with J&J’s JNJ adenovirus-based COVID-19 vaccine.Israeli AlarmPer a Reuters report, the Israel’s Health Ministry raised the alarm when it reported a likely link of heart inflammation in young men vaccinated with Pfizer’s BNT162b earlier this month. Following this report, the CDC and health regulators in other countries started investigating such cases.Although the number of reported cases is small compared to total inoculations with mRNA vaccines, they were higher than expected in the younger age groups.CDC MeetingWe note that the CDC is yet to link these adverse events to mRNA vaccines and has scheduled a meeting of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) on Jun 18 to discuss and assess the heart inflammation reports. Moreover, the government authority has recommended continuation of vaccination for everyone of age 12 or older given the risk of COVID-19 illness and related complications.However, we note that the CDC report also stated that more than 50% of heart inflammation cases were reported in the age group of 12-24 that has received only 8.8% of vaccine doses. This suggests that any adverse outcome from the ACIP meeting scheduled next week can hamper vaccination with mRNA vaccines in the adolescent patient group, and hurt prospects of these vaccine developers. However, the percentage of inflammation cases suggests that the risk from these vaccines is significantly lower than their benefits. A CDC study claims that these vaccines are 91% effective. Moreover, most patients facing inflammation issues quickly felt better following medication and rest.mRNA Vaccine UpdatesWe remind investors that Pfizer/BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine received authorization for emergency use in adolescents last month from the FDA. Moderna filed for a similar authorization in the United States, Europe and Canada earlier this month.Meanwhile, Pfizer and BioNTech have pledged two billion doses of their COVID-19 vaccines to ensure equitable access to their vaccines globally. As part of the pledge, the company plans to supply 200 million doses in 2021 and 300 million doses in the first half of 2022 to the U.S. government at not-for-profit price. The government will donate these doses to low- and lower middle-income countries and organizations that support them.While Moderna and Pfizer carry a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), BioNTech sports a Zacks Rank of 1 (Strong Buy).

The S&P 500 is down only about 1% from its record hit earlier this month before a pullback.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":218,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":350611067,"gmtCreate":1616200252059,"gmtModify":1704792079315,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573590765333740","idStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"2021 is the year of SPACs?&nbsp;","listText":"2021 is the year of SPACs?&nbsp;","text":"2021 is the year of SPACs?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/350611067","repostId":"1126157111","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":136,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":894748884,"gmtCreate":1628860266948,"gmtModify":1676529877440,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573590765333740","idStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"When will Visa follow suit?&nbsp;","listText":"When will Visa follow suit?&nbsp;","text":"When will Visa follow suit?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/894748884","repostId":"2159922112","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":316,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3574399983193226","authorId":"3574399983193226","name":"MFME","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9c7d2325aa9eb91869c4c7144270a75a","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"authorIdStr":"3574399983193226","idStr":"3574399983193226"},"content":"its there no worries","text":"its there no worries","html":"its there no worries"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":374730362,"gmtCreate":1619480600156,"gmtModify":1704724488557,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573590765333740","idStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great news for $TSLA","listText":"Great news for $TSLA","text":"Great news for $TSLA","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/374730362","repostId":"1190086074","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1190086074","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1619480390,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1190086074?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-27 07:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla posts record net income of $438 million, revenue surges by 74%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1190086074","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Tesla reported record net income of $438 million during the quarter, as well as earnings of 93 cents per share on $10.39 billion in revenue.In its earnings release, the company said it has weathered chip shortages that have plagued the auto industry in part by “pivoting extremely quickly to new microcontrollers, while simultaneously developing firmware for new chips made by new suppliers.”On an earnings call, CEO Elon Musk said the delayed new version of the company’s Model S sedan will be deliv","content":"<p><b>KEY POINTS</b></p><ul><li>Tesla reported record net income of $438 million during the quarter, as well as earnings of 93 cents per share on $10.39 billion in revenue.</li><li>In its earnings release, the company said it has weathered chip shortages that have plagued the auto industry in part by “pivoting extremely quickly to new microcontrollers, while simultaneously developing firmware for new chips made by new suppliers.”</li><li>On an earnings call, CEO Elon Musk said the delayed new version of the company’s Model S sedan will be delivered starting in May 2021, and Model X deliveries will begin in the third quarter of the year.</li></ul><p>Tesla&nbsp;reported first-quarter results after the bell on Monday.

Just 2,155 addresses own almost 42% of all Bitcoin, while 66.6% of all outstanding Dogecoin is owned by only 99 addresses.

Not all governments are OK with crypto</p><p>The crypto bubble is also popping because some governments aren't OK with allowing cryptocurrencies to undermine their own central bank-backed currencies. Last week, China sent the crypto market into a tailspin after prohibiting banks and online payment channels in the country from offering any services related to the cryptocurrency industry. It should be noted that a lot of Bitcoin mining occurs in China.</p><p>And China's far from alone. Turkey recently enacted a ban on crypto payments.

Enthusiasts like to point out how crypto is a hedge against inflation, but they forget that Bitcoin has both risen and fallen when the money supply expanded rapidly or slowly.

Leverage is haunting the crypto market</p><p>The cryptocurrency implosion can also be blamed on investors who are over-levered. Some of the most popular crypto exchanges will allow customers to use 50 to 125 times leverage on their actual account equity. While this isn't an uncommon amount of leverage in forex, where currencies move in fractions of a cent, it's absolutely ludicrous for crypto, which can move 3% in the blink of an eye.</p><p>According to data from Bybt.com, via Bloomberg, over 887,000 accounts totaling $9.4 billion in aggregate crypto assets were liquidated as a result of leverage-based margin calls on May 19. Because of this insane leverage, it doesn't take much for things to go south quickly for the crypto market.</p><p>10.

The president addresses a joint session of Congress Wednesday evening.It’s a huge week for earnings with about a third of the S&P 500 reporting, including Big Tech names, such as Apple,Microsoft,Alphabet and Amazon.As many have already done, firms like Boeing, Ford,Caterpillar and McDonald’s, are likely to detail cost pressures they are facing from rising materials and transportation costs and supply chain disruptions.At the same time, the Fed is expected to defend its policy of letting inflation run hot, while assuring markets it sees the pick-up in prices as only temporary. The central bank meets on Tuesday and Wednesday.The central bank takes the main stage“I think the Fed would like not to be a feature next week, but the Fed will be forced from the background because of concerns about inflation,” said Diane Swonk, chief economist at Grant Thornton.The central bank is not expected to make any policy moves, but Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s press briefing following the meeting Wednesday will be closely watched.So far, the barrage of earnings news has been positive, with 86% of companies reporting earnings beats. Corporate profits are expected to be up about 33.9% for the first quarter, based on estimates and actual reports, according to Refinitiv. Revenues are about 9.9% higher.There is important inflation data Friday when the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge is reported.The personal consumption expenditure report is expected to show a 1.8% rise in core inflation, still below the Fed’s target of 2%. Other data releases include the first-quarter gross domestic product on Thursday, which is expected to have grown by 6.5%, according to Dow Jones.“I think the Fed has no urgency to shift monetary policy at this point,” said Ian Lyngen, head of U.S. rates strategy at BMO. “The Fed needs to acknowledge that the data is improving. We had a strong first quarter.”“The Fed needs to acknowledge that but at the same time they’re keeping extremely accommodative policy in place, so they’ll have to make a note to the fact that the easy policy is warranted,” he said.Lyngen said the Fed will likely point to continued concerns about the pandemic globally as a potential risk to the economic recovery.Powell is also expected to once more explain that the Fed will let inflation rise above its 2% target for a period of time before it raises rates so that the economy can have more time to heal. “It’s going to be a challenge for the Fed,” said Swonk.The base effects for the next several months will make inflation appear to have jumped sharply because of the comparison to a weak period last year. The consumer price index for April could be above 3%, compared to 2.6% last month, Swonk added.“The Fed is trying to let a lot more people get out onto the dance floor before it calls ‘last call,’” she said. “Really what Powell has been saying since day one is if we take care of people on the margins and bring them back into the labor force, the rest will take care of itself.”Stocks were slightly lower in the past week, and Treasury yields held at lower levels. The 10-year yield,which moves opposite price, was at 1.55% Friday.The S&P 500was down 0.1%, ending the week at 4,180, while Nasdaq Composite was down nearly 0.3% at 14,016. The Dow was off just shy of 0.5% at 34,043.Tax hike prospectsStocks were hit hard on Thursday when after a news report said that Biden is expected to propose a capital gains tax rate of 39.6% for people earning more than $1 million a year.Combined with the 3.8% net investment income tax, the new levy would more than double the long term capital gains rate of 20% or the richest Americans.Strategists said Biden is expected to propose raising the income tax rate for those earning more than $400,000.“I think a lot of people are starting to price in the risk there going to be a significant increase in both corporate and capital gains taxes,” said Lyngen.So far, companies have not provided much in the way of commentary on the proposed hike in corporate taxes to 28% from 21% but they have been talking about other costs.David Bianco, chief investment strategist for the Americas at DWS, said he expects larger companies will do better dealing with supply chain constraints than smaller ones. Big Tech is also likely to fare better during the semiconductor shortage than auto makers, which have already announced production shutdowns, he said.“Next week is tech week. I think we’re going to get down on our knees and just be in awe of their business models and their ability to grow at a behemoth scale,” Bianco said.He said he’s not in favor of Wall Street’s popular trade into cyclicals and out of growth. He still favors growth.“We’re overweight equities really because we’re concerned about rising interest rates,” Bianco said. “I’m not bullish in that I expect the market to rise that much from here.”“We stuck with growth and dug deeper into bond substitutes, utilities, staples, real estate,” he said, adding he is underweight industrials, energy and materials. “Energy is doomed. It’s being nationalized via regulation. I do like industrials, they are well-run companies, but I do think infrastructure spending expectations for classic infrastructure are too high.”He also said industrials are good businesses, but the stocks have become overvalued.Bianco said he likes big box stores, but smaller retailers are facing big challenges that were already impacting them prior to Covid. He also finds small biotech firms attractive.“I like healthcare stocks. Those valuations are reasonable. People have been paranoid about politicians beating on them since 1992. They manage through it and lately they’ve been delivering,” he said.Week ahead calendarMondayEarnings:Tesla,Canadian National Railway, Canon,Check Point Software,Otis Worldwide, Vale,Ameriprise,NXP Semiconductor,Albertsons, Royal Phillips8:30 a.m. Durable goodsTuesdayFOMC begins two day meetingEarnings:Microsoft,Alphabet,Visa,Amgen,Advanced Micro Devices,3M,General Electric,Eli Lilly, Hasbro,United Parcel Service,BP,Novartis,JetBlue,Pultegroup,Archer Daniels Midland,Waste Management,Starbucks,Texas Instrument,Chubb,Mondelez,FireEye,Corning,Raytheon9:00 a.m. S&P/Case-Shiller9:00 a.m. FHFA home prices10:00 a.m. Consumer confidence10:00 a.m. Housing vacanciesWednesdayEarnings:Apple, Boeing,Facebook,Qualcomm,Ford,MGM Resorts,Humana,Norfolk Southern,General Dynamics,Boston Scientific, eBay, Samsung Electronics, GlaxoSmithKline,Yum Brands, SiriusXM, Aflac,Cheesecake Factory,Community Health System,CIT Group,Entergy,CME Group,Hess,Ryder System8:30 a.m. Advance economic indicators2:00 p.m. Fed statement2:30 p.m. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell briefingThursdayEarnings:Amazon,Caterpillar,McDonald’s,Twitter,Bristol-Myers Squibb,Comcast,Merck,Northrop Grumman, Airbus,Kraft Heinz,Intercontinental Exchange,Mastercard,Gilead Sciences,U.S. Steel, Cirrus Logic,Texas Roadhouse, Cabot Oil, PG&E,Royal Dutch Shell,Church & Dwight, Carlyle Group,Southern Co.8:30 a.m. Initial jobless claims8:30 a.m. Real GDP Q110:00 a.m. Pending home salesFridayEarnings:ExxonMobil,Chevron,Colgate-Palmolive,AstraZeneca,Clorox,Barclays, AbbVie, BNP Paribas,Weyerhaeuser,Illinois Tool Works, CBOE Global Markets, Lazard,Newell Brands,Aon,LyondellBasell,Pitney Bowes,Phillips 66,Charter Communications8:30 a.m. Personal income and spending8:30 a.m. Employment cost index Q19:45 a.m. Chicago PMI10:00 a.m. Consumer sentimentSaturdayEarnings:Berkshire Hathaway","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":88,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":378880360,"gmtCreate":1619015457950,"gmtModify":1704718369377,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573590765333740","idStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy the dip?&nbsp;","listText":"Buy the dip?&nbsp;","text":"Buy the dip?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/378880360","repostId":"1122748494","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1122748494","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1618997556,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1122748494?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-21 17:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Netflix: A Rare Misstep","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1122748494","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Netflix notes that it wasn't churn that's dipping its revenue growth rates, but a lackluster user acquisition in the period.Questions linger on whether or not Netflix will return to +20% growth rates.

Right now, the stock is being priced at just 8x forward sales, the lowest valuation Netflix's stock has seen for some time.\nFurther, Netflix is, dare I say, starting to become a free cash flow generator and looking forward to repurchasing its own shares.\nThere are obviously still huge overhanging questions over Netflix's amortization schedule, but if investors hang around waiting for full closure onthatchapter, they'll miss out on the substantial upside potential presented right now.\nIn actuality, that's why I haven't spent any time discussing Netflix's earnings, because Netflix's free cash flow is a less contentious issue for both bulls and bears.\nIn sum, Netflix continues to plow ahead, and long-term shareholders should be fairly content with this set of results.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":44,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":321983110,"gmtCreate":1615388791330,"gmtModify":1704782121719,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573590765333740","idStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TIGR\">$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$</a>&nbsp;bought the dip","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TIGR\">$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$</a>&nbsp;bought the dip","text":"$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ bought the dip","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b2a8e29434fa3450ee0e893746f23fa4","width":"1080","height":"1920"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/321983110","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":113,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":384102611,"gmtCreate":1613621546333,"gmtModify":1704882820329,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573590765333740","idStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"BTC 50k then 100k ???","listText":"BTC 50k then 100k ???","text":"BTC 50k then 100k ???","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/384102611","repostId":"1188127819","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1188127819","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1613618258,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1188127819?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-18 11:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Bitcoin’s $50,000 FOMO Is Overpowering Bankers","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1188127819","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"The Fear Of Missing Out is rippling through business and finance. But not everyone can be Elon Musk.","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>The Fear Of Missing Out&nbsp;is rippling through&nbsp;business and finance.&nbsp;But not everyone can be Elon Musk.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. traders are said to be “salivating” over Bitcoin.

Instead, they’ve built synthetic versions of equities that track some of the world’s biggest companies. In essence, the anti-establishment ethos of the crypto world is being applied to a rough facsimile of the stock market.</p>\n<p>Fake versions ofTesla Inc., Apple Inc., Amazon.com Inc. and other big stocks, as well as a few popularexchange-traded funds, have been created by the projectsMirror ProtocolandSynthetixover the past year. The tokens, and the programming that allows them to trade, are engineered to reflect the prices of the securities they track without any actual purchases or sales of the real stocks and ETFs involved. So far, volumes are just a tiny fraction of those on regulated exchanges. But for crypto enthusiasts, the potential upside is huge.</p>\n<p>The synthetic shares join a strange new world of assets such asdigital artworkand highlights of NBA games now trading on blockchains. Yet, unlike the modern art and dunks of the non-fungible token universe, these instruments raise questions about how they fit into a global stock market and brokerage industry governed by thousands of pages of rules from dozens of countries.</p>\n<p>At the moment, it’s a case of innovation that’s way ahead of regulation.</p>\n<p>Which is exactly how&nbsp;Do Kwon&nbsp;likes it. The co-founder and CEO of Terraform Labs, the South Korean company that created the Mirror Protocol on its Terra blockchain, in the mode of Vlad Tenev or Chamath Palihapitiya. DeFi “is so powerful in unlocking financial services for disenfranchised people around the world,” he said via email, that “it’s better to move fast and break things. Waiting for fragmented regulatory frameworks to crystallize before innovating is counterintuitive.”</p>\n<p>Synthetic Assets</p>\n<p>For Kwon and other proponents of these new synthetic assets, avoiding the various rules and barriers of the financial world is a feature, not a bug. It opens up opportunities for wealth creation currently only available to a fortunate few, he said. Users can trade the tokens anonymously 24 hours a day, seven days a week, from anywhere, unhindered by capital controls,“know your client”rules imposed on broker-dealers, and other frictions of the traditional financial system.</p>\n<p>Kwon said Terraform Labs doesn’t generate any revenue from fees charged on the Mirror Protocol. Those go to users as an incentive to provide liquidity. Rather, the firm profits via a cryptocurrency it created that tends to increase in value as projects like Mirror grow in popularity.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/603592b93f5f75f55f7927b44372308b\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"1044\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>The interface on Terraswap to buy Mirrored Tesla</span></p>\n<p>So how exactly do these synthetic equities work? Well, it’s complicated.</p>\n<p>But to oversimplify, under the Mirror Protocol, the idea is to keep prices of the synthetic -- or “mirrored” -- equities in the ballpark of the real thing by offering incentives for traders to arbitrage price discrepancies and manage the actual supply of tokens. Users can create, or “mint,” new tokens when prices are too high by posting collateral, and destroy, or “burn,” tokens when prices are too low,driving the priceup or down.</p>\n<p>Through these incentives, the “synths closely track the price of the real-world asset,” Kwon said. “But they’re still only tokens on a blockchain providing explicit price exposure.”</p>\n<p>‘Trojan Horse’</p>\n<p>The tokens trade on decentralized, automated markets like Uniswap andTerraswap, which allow users to buy and sell the assets directly on the blockchain -- a different model than centralized crypto exchanges run by the likes of Coinbase Global Inc. and Binance.</p>\n<p>So far, trading volumes likely aren’t high enough to cause executives at Nasdaq or the New York Stock Exchange to lose much sleep. Mirrored Apple tokens, for example, have a market capitalization of about $34 million, according toCoinmarketcap.com. That compares with about $2.3 trillion for the real stock, and is around 1/1,000th the size of the novelty cryptocurrency Dogecoin.</p>\n<p>A comparison of prices between various mirrored equities and the real securities at various times over the past week shows that the difference between the two can range from a penny to several dollars. For example, in afternoon trading on June 30, the price of Mirrored Tesla on CoinMarketCap.com was almost $6 higher than the $684 level the real shares were trading for on the stock market.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/37c316b1a6a4c8847b072741e58a2c89\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"617\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Mirrored Tesla’s price from CoinMarketCap.com</span></p>\n<p>Yet, the projects bear watching by traditional finance institutions, given some of the ambitions in the DeFi space. As digital-asset management firm Arrington XRP Capital put it in areportanalyzing and describing its support for Mirror, the goal of DeFi is not to simply improve a user’s experience with the banking system, but rather to dismantle it entirely. These new synthetic equities, the firm wrote, “are one of DeFi’s most obvious Trojan Horses into legacy markets.”</p>\n<p>A spokeswoman for the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and representatives for Nasdaq, the listing exchange for most of the equities being copied by synthetics, declined to comment.</p>\n<p>“Since these synthetic products are not regulated and not traded on a national securities exchange, I would think that the SEC would take issue with them,” said Joseph Saluzzi, the co-head of equity trading at Themis Trading who has providedtestimonyto Congress on market issues. “According to the SEC, their mission is to protect investors, maintain fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and facilitate capital formation. This sounds like an investor-protection issue to me.”</p>\n<p>Binance, the world’s biggest cryptocurrency exchange, has alreadydrawn the attentionof Germany’s financial regulator by offering tokens that are tied to the performance of popular U.S. stocks but backed by the actual equities.

Instead, they’ve built synthetic versions of equities that track some of the world’s biggest companies. In essence, the anti-establishment ethos of the crypto world is being applied to a rough facsimile of the stock market.\nFake versions ofTesla Inc., Apple Inc., Amazon.com Inc. and other big stocks, as well as a few popularexchange-traded funds, have been created by the projectsMirror ProtocolandSynthetixover the past year. The tokens, and the programming that allows them to trade, are engineered to reflect the prices of the securities they track without any actual purchases or sales of the real stocks and ETFs involved. So far, volumes are just a tiny fraction of those on regulated exchanges. But for crypto enthusiasts, the potential upside is huge.\nThe synthetic shares join a strange new world of assets such asdigital artworkand highlights of NBA games now trading on blockchains. Yet, unlike the modern art and dunks of the non-fungible token universe, these instruments raise questions about how they fit into a global stock market and brokerage industry governed by thousands of pages of rules from dozens of countries.\nAt the moment, it’s a case of innovation that’s way ahead of regulation.\nWhich is exactly how Do Kwon likes it. The co-founder and CEO of Terraform Labs, the South Korean company that created the Mirror Protocol on its Terra blockchain, in the mode of Vlad Tenev or Chamath Palihapitiya. DeFi “is so powerful in unlocking financial services for disenfranchised people around the world,” he said via email, that “it’s better to move fast and break things. Waiting for fragmented regulatory frameworks to crystallize before innovating is counterintuitive.”\nSynthetic Assets\nFor Kwon and other proponents of these new synthetic assets, avoiding the various rules and barriers of the financial world is a feature, not a bug. It opens up opportunities for wealth creation currently only available to a fortunate few, he said. Users can trade the tokens anonymously 24 hours a day, seven days a week, from anywhere, unhindered by capital controls,“know your client”rules imposed on broker-dealers, and other frictions of the traditional financial system.\nKwon said Terraform Labs doesn’t generate any revenue from fees charged on the Mirror Protocol. Those go to users as an incentive to provide liquidity. Rather, the firm profits via a cryptocurrency it created that tends to increase in value as projects like Mirror grow in popularity.\nThe interface on Terraswap to buy Mirrored Tesla\nSo how exactly do these synthetic equities work? Well, it’s complicated.\nBut to oversimplify, under the Mirror Protocol, the idea is to keep prices of the synthetic -- or “mirrored” -- equities in the ballpark of the real thing by offering incentives for traders to arbitrage price discrepancies and manage the actual supply of tokens. Users can create, or “mint,” new tokens when prices are too high by posting collateral, and destroy, or “burn,” tokens when prices are too low,driving the priceup or down.\nThrough these incentives, the “synths closely track the price of the real-world asset,” Kwon said. “But they’re still only tokens on a blockchain providing explicit price exposure.”\n‘Trojan Horse’\nThe tokens trade on decentralized, automated markets like Uniswap andTerraswap, which allow users to buy and sell the assets directly on the blockchain -- a different model than centralized crypto exchanges run by the likes of Coinbase Global Inc. and Binance.\nSo far, trading volumes likely aren’t high enough to cause executives at Nasdaq or the New York Stock Exchange to lose much sleep. Mirrored Apple tokens, for example, have a market capitalization of about $34 million, according toCoinmarketcap.com. That compares with about $2.3 trillion for the real stock, and is around 1/1,000th the size of the novelty cryptocurrency Dogecoin.\nA comparison of prices between various mirrored equities and the real securities at various times over the past week shows that the difference between the two can range from a penny to several dollars. For example, in afternoon trading on June 30, the price of Mirrored Tesla on CoinMarketCap.com was almost $6 higher than the $684 level the real shares were trading for on the stock market.\nMirrored Tesla’s price from CoinMarketCap.com\nYet, the projects bear watching by traditional finance institutions, given some of the ambitions in the DeFi space. As digital-asset management firm Arrington XRP Capital put it in areportanalyzing and describing its support for Mirror, the goal of DeFi is not to simply improve a user’s experience with the banking system, but rather to dismantle it entirely. These new synthetic equities, the firm wrote, “are one of DeFi’s most obvious Trojan Horses into legacy markets.”\nA spokeswoman for the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and representatives for Nasdaq, the listing exchange for most of the equities being copied by synthetics, declined to comment.\n“Since these synthetic products are not regulated and not traded on a national securities exchange, I would think that the SEC would take issue with them,” said Joseph Saluzzi, the co-head of equity trading at Themis Trading who has providedtestimonyto Congress on market issues. “According to the SEC, their mission is to protect investors, maintain fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and facilitate capital formation. This sounds like an investor-protection issue to me.”\nBinance, the world’s biggest cryptocurrency exchange, has alreadydrawn the attentionof Germany’s financial regulator by offering tokens that are tied to the performance of popular U.S. stocks but backed by the actual equities. Binance may have violated securities rules when it issued the tokenized shares of Tesla, MicroStrategy Inc. and Coinbase, BaFin said in April.\nRegulators could also start looking more closely at the DeFi space following some spectacular blowups in stablecoins -- digital currencies designed to closely track the value of national currencies (and which Mirror traders use as collateral to mint new tokens). Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, an enthusiastic and influential investor in DeFi,recently calledfor regulations to address the cryptocurrencies after losing money when one crashed in value to zero.\nBillionaire crypto investor Mike Novogratz, founder and chief executive of Galaxy Digital, recently tweeted that players in DeFi markets may regret it if they don’t start abiding by so-called know your client and anti-money laundering rules.\n“Invest in a compliance layer now or pay the piper later,”he wrote. “If we want this ecosystem to grow we need to recognize we need to operate within the rules society sets.”\nKwon said Terraform Labs has not yet had any conversations with regulators in the U.S. or elsewhere about mirrored equities. Nor has the company communicated with exchanges such as Nasdaq, or the firms that manage the ETFs that have been mirrored.\nBut to stop mirrored stocks and other synthetic assets from trading, you would have to shut down the underlying open-source software code that makes up the blockchain and is used by a global user base that includes many anonymous players, he added.\n“As long as there are ardent believers in the greater picture of what’s possible with the technology, shutting down crypto, DeFi, or synths is a Sisyphean task,” he said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":314,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":154815204,"gmtCreate":1625496902708,"gmtModify":1703742721884,"author":{"id":"3573590765333740","authorId":"3573590765333740","name":"mintmochi","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31c5f084e3d18956192beac9ba9a153a","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3573590765333740","idStr":"3573590765333740"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Market closed, sleep early tonight","listText":"Market closed, sleep early tonight","text":"Market closed, sleep early tonight","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/154815204","repostId":"1109703914","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1109703914","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625464355,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1109703914?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-05 13:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is the Stock Market Open or Closed on Independence Day?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1109703914","media":"Thestreet","summary":"Independence Day in the U.S. is for many a picnic-and-beach day.
