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.

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. Binance may have violated securities rules when it issued the tokenized shares of Tesla, MicroStrategy Inc. and Coinbase, BaFin said in April.</p>\n<p>Regulators 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.</p>\n<p>Billionaire 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.</p>\n<p>“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.”</p>\n<p>Kwon 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.</p>\n<p>But 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.</p>\n<p>“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.</p>","source":"yahoofinance","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>Fake Tesla, Apple Stocks Have Started Trading on Blockchains</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\">\nFake Tesla, Apple Stocks Have Started Trading on Blockchains\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-06 22:25 GMT+8 <a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/fake-tesla-apple-stocks-started-110000040.html><strong>Bloomberg</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>For years, the powers that be on Wall Street have toyed with questions about whether it would be feasible to move the stock market onto a blockchain, the underlying technology behind cryptocurrencies....</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/fake-tesla-apple-stocks-started-110000040.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"09086":"华夏纳指-U","03086":"华夏纳指","TSLA":"特斯拉","AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/fake-tesla-apple-stocks-started-110000040.html","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5f26f4a48f9cb3e29be4d71d3ba8c038","article_id":"2149350637","content_text":"For years, the powers that be on Wall Street have toyed with questions about whether it would be feasible to move the stock market onto a blockchain, the underlying technology behind cryptocurrencies.\nThe innovators in the fast-moving world of decentralized finance -- or DeFi -- aren’t waiting around to see how those discussions unfold.

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":481,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121683027,"gmtCreate":1624461727569,"gmtModify":1703837559919,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121683027","repostId":"1156291883","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1156291883","pubTimestamp":1624457943,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1156291883?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 22:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon Prime Day sales surpass $11 billion, topping record Cyber Monday levels, Adobe says","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1156291883","media":"cnbc","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nOnline retail sales in the United States during Amazon's 48-hour Prime Day event have su","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nOnline retail sales in the United States during Amazon's 48-hour Prime Day event have surpassed record levels of e-commerce spending reached during Cyber Monday last year, according to a ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/23/amazon-prime-day-sales-surpass-11-billion-topping-cyber-monday-levels-adobe.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;

The reality is that this company is on the verge of dominating the EV market in China and Hong Kong. It’s why I put NIO on my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio back in February.</p>\n<p>The company boasts that it is the “next-generation car company,” as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles that utilize the latest technologies in connectivity, autonomous driving and artificial intelligence (AI). NIO currently offers an electric seven-seater SUV (ES8) and a five-seater electric SUV (ES6) and recently introduced an attractive electric sedan (ET7). Its vehicles utilize NOMI, an in-vehicle artificial intelligence assistant.</p>\n<p>The company is also partnering with cutting-edge chip companies like<b>NVIDIA Corporation</b>(NASDAQ:<b>NVDA</b>), another one of my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio stocks.

The NVIDIA DRIVE Orin-powered supercomputer, which is being called Adam, will be launched in the ET7 sedan in China in 2022. Announcements like this are very positive, so NIO has been stealing some of Tesla’s thunder lately.</p>\n<p>Now, it’s important to note that NIO was bailed out by the Chinese government. Last year, the Chinese government injected $1 billion and now has a 24% ownership in the company. The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.</p>\n<p>With the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.</p>\n<p>That means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.</p>\n<p>Shares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%. First, NIO revealed that the global chip shortage is starting to take a toll on its business. NIO only delivered 6,711 vehicles in May, or a 5.5% decline from April’s deliveries. Company management noted that deliveries were “adversely impacted for several days due to the volatility of semiconductor supply and certain logistical adjustments.”</p>\n<p>Interestingly, despite the month-to-month dip, NIO’s deliveries were still up 95.3% year-over-year. Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.</p>\n<p>In other words, NIO represents the<b>crème de la crème</b>of EV stocks right now.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Why I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nWhy I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-23 15:33 GMT+8 <a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.\n\nSuper fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc.(NASDAQ:TSLA) model received some disappointing news a week ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NIO":"蔚来","TSLA":"特斯拉"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1145825451","content_text":"The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.\n\nSuper fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc.(NASDAQ:TSLA) model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.\nSource: nrqemi / Shutterstock.com\nMusk wrote there was… “No need, as Plaid is just so good.”\nThe Model S Plaid Plus was supposed to be the fastest, most powerful and priciest version of the company’s Model S.

Announcements like this are very positive, so NIO has been stealing some of Tesla’s thunder lately.\nNow, it’s important to note that NIO was bailed out by the Chinese government. Last year, the Chinese government injected $1 billion and now has a 24% ownership in the company. The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.\nWith the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.\nThat means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.\nShares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%. First, NIO revealed that the global chip shortage is starting to take a toll on its business. NIO only delivered 6,711 vehicles in May, or a 5.5% decline from April’s deliveries. Company management noted that deliveries were “adversely impacted for several days due to the volatility of semiconductor supply and certain logistical adjustments.”\nInterestingly, despite the month-to-month dip, NIO’s deliveries were still up 95.3% year-over-year. Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.\nIn other words, NIO represents thecrème de la crèmeof EV stocks right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":292,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":167307974,"gmtCreate":1624245495298,"gmtModify":1703831451384,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/167307974","repostId":"1134946846","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":548,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":167305139,"gmtCreate":1624245423821,"gmtModify":1703831448786,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/167305139","repostId":"1154249454","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154249454","pubTimestamp":1624230573,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1154249454?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-21 07:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nike, FedEx, Johnson & Johnson, Darden, and Other Stocks for Investors to Watch This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154249454","media":"barrons","summary":"A handful of notable companies will release their latest results toward the end of this week.Nike,FedEx,andDarden Restaurantswill report on Thursday, followed by CarMax and Paychex on Friday.

The Reserve Bank of Australia was forced to cancel a scheduled bond-buying operation Thursday, blaming“technical difficulties.” The central bank said it had adopted workarounds and its website was now back up and running.</p>\n<p>The widespread downtime recalled an hour-long global outage earlier this month, triggered by a software failure at content delivery platform Fastly Inc. The resultant cascading failures, which affected services from Amazon.com Inc. to Shopify Inc. and Stripe Inc., served as a stark reminder of how exposed the world’s biggest websites are to the impact of disruptions ranging from simple human error to coordinated cyberattack.</p>\n<p>Akamai said in a statement it was aware of the issue and “actively working to restore services as soon as possible.” Website tracker Downdetector.com initially flagged hundreds of user complaints about outages affecting Southwest Airlines Co.,Delta Air Lines Inc. and Automatic Data Processing Inc.Other websites pinpointed included those operated by Vanguard,E-Trade and Navy Federal Credit Union.</p>\n<p>Many of the websites affected on Thursday recovered within the hour, some after rerouting to other providers. Companies including Hong Kong’s exchange and Southwest said they were investigating the incident, without elaborating. “The pause in connectivity did not impact our operation,” Southwest said in an emailed response to questions.</p>\n<p>It was unclear what triggered the incidents Thursday. In Fastly’s case, a valid software configuration change by one of its customers triggered a previously undiscovered bug, introduced during a May 12 software deployment. Fastly quickly identified an issue with its content delivery network and announced it was rolling out a fix just 46 minutes after acknowledging a problem.

The e-commerce platform initially went public in December at $20 per share before surging to an all-time high of $32 in February due to a momentum-driven rally. That said, shares have steadily plunged ever since, hitting an all-time low of just $7 in June, but are now recovering swiftly after increased interest from the retail trading sector. Here, the stock is favored due to its high volatility, short interest, and enormous upside potential.</p>\n<p>In this context, I believe that the high short interest has increasingly pushed shares below fair value and that patient investors could soon see $20 or more again as the company is working through logistic challenges and will soon return to economies of scale. In this regard, the e-commerce platform has a unique value proposition and is well-positioned to gain market share in a $6 trillion e-commerce industry.</p>\n<p><b>The Digital Dollar Tree</b></p>\n<p>Wish has been criticized heavily as an e-commerce platform, and I would almost argue that its image of being a third-party 'dropshipping' site for Chinese merchants has kept investors away from the stock so far. However, this may only be partially true. Essentially, Wish has inverted Amazon's(NASDAQ:AMZN)business model through low-priced (low-quality) products and sluggish delivery times that may lead to week-long delivery times.

The e-commerce platform initially went public in December at $20 per share before surging to an all-time high of $32 in February due to a momentum-driven rally. That said, shares have steadily plunged ever since, hitting an all-time low of just $7 in June, but are now recovering swiftly after increased interest from the retail trading sector. Here, the stock is favored due to its high volatility, short interest, and enormous upside potential.\nIn this context, I believe that the high short interest has increasingly pushed shares below fair value and that patient investors could soon see $20 or more again as the company is working through logistic challenges and will soon return to economies of scale. In this regard, the e-commerce platform has a unique value proposition and is well-positioned to gain market share in a $6 trillion e-commerce industry.\nThe Digital Dollar Tree\nWish has been criticized heavily as an e-commerce platform, and I would almost argue that its image of being a third-party 'dropshipping' site for Chinese merchants has kept investors away from the stock so far. However, this may only be partially true. Essentially, Wish has inverted Amazon's(NASDAQ:AMZN)business model through low-priced (low-quality) products and sluggish delivery times that may lead to week-long delivery times. This is because Wish does not handle shipping itself, which is why it can offer these ultra-low prices of offering a hoodie for $2 plus $2 shipping.\nFrankly, Wish is still dependent on Chinese merchants, accounting for most of its product catalogs. This is unsurprising, considering that most goods are produced in China as the production costs are among the lowest in the world. Most of the goods being sold on Amazon or eBay(NASDAQ:EBAY)were also produced in China, although they earn a higher perception due to one-day delivery shipping programs or higher prices.\n\nNow, I view Wish as the digital dollar tree, where online shoppers discover items that they want, not need. In the process, customers have more patience for products and are willing to wait longer for them to arrive. Wish is working towards addressing both of these issues (quality and merchant diversification) as its platform is gaining popularity. Here, it has been investing in logistics to offer quicker delivery, demonstrated by a 275% YoY increase in logistics revenue. Since these revenues provide low margins, its overall gross margins have decreased in accordance. However, once it achieves economies of scale in the segment, margin growth should reverse and trail back towards 70%.\nIt is also addressing the second issue by continuously growing its international merchant base. Here, U.S. merchants increased by over 400% YoY, and a similar trend is to be seen in other countries. Moreover, it is growing Wish Local, a service connecting local businesses to the platform, accounting for 7% of all Wish orders. Wish local is mostly (or exclusively) available in the United States and thus increasingly mixes with other products on the website.\nSource: Sensor Tower\nI also like Wish's strategy to engage and retain users by utilizing an AI matching system that optimizes platform growth, user experience, and merchant return on investment. The strategy to create an interactive mobile shopping experience appears to be working well: Impressively, Wish gets over500,000reviews per day from users, surpassing even Amazon and other shopping sites in this regard, demonstrating just about how engaging the platform is.

As a price-action, momentum based investor, seeing a stock that has demonstrated strong medium term and long term uptrend bias is of paramount importance to me and NFLX certainly checks all of that from this perspective. Although there are other growth stocks that have demonstrated a better uptrend bias profile, NFLX is not a slouch either. It has only lost its medium term 50W MA dynamic support only twice in the last 5 years: 2018 bear market decline of 45%, and Jul-Sep 19 decline of 35%. Even though the stock momentarily lost its 50W support level then, NFLX quickly regained its medium term support level, and during the COVID-19 bear market, NFLX never lost support of its medium term uptrend. Therefore, the 50W MA has proven to be a consistently strong medium term dynamic support level for NFLX over the last 5 years.</p>\n<p>NFLX's price has now approached its 50W support level again thanks to the weak market sentiments lately which makes it appropriate to discuss whether NFLX represents a good buying opportunity now for long term investors.</p>\n<p><b>So What Happened to Netflix's Paid Adds?</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/17d1ce1d66e99396f67725dcfdaf3db8\" tg-width=\"769\" tg-height=\"476\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Average Paying Membership by Region.

Therefore, I think there is a reasonable basis to infer that NFLX's paid adds growth seemed to have slowed down pretty dramatically even though it should be noted that NFLX's net paid membership of 208M significantly outnumbered Roku's 53.6M active accounts and that was not a small difference.</p>\n<p>Now, if you are a short term trader or an \"investor\" with a horizon of 1 quarter, then perhaps it may be a reasonable basis to get out of the stock. However, for long term investors, many of whom NFLX has handsomely rewarded over the last ten years, we need to dig deeper to investigate whether there has been a significant change in its long term competitive moat from the latest quarter's aberration that may significantly change NFLX's ability to compete effectively and weaken the competitive dynamics of its business model.</p>\n<p><b>Revenue Growth Looks Good</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d8c6ed8cb94d2134ca5d0d79660ece07\" tg-width=\"1184\" tg-height=\"732\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Revenue by Region.

Data Source: Company Filings</p>\n<p>First up, let's take a look at its revenue by region performance. We could observe clearly that the company's most important revenue drivers: UCAN and EMEA had YoY revenue growth of 17.3% and 36% in Q1'21, respectively, as compared to 19.8% and 39.7% in Q1'20, respectively. Sure, there was a slight blip in its YoY growth rate in Q1'21, but it was still very much in line with Q4'20 YoY numbers (which Mr. Market cheered by pushing the stock up 17.74% the day after earnings release), so it was nothing too significant that warranted a serious look into its competitiveness. Moreover, its fastest growing region: APAC also looked to have performed well with a 57.6% YoY growth rate that was even better than Q1'20's YoY growth rate of 51.3%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/298a4247dfc847726b87f80e24cc874f\" tg-width=\"876\" tg-height=\"542\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>ARPU by Region.

Data Source: Company Filings</p>\n<p>NFLX also performed admirably well in its ARPU. ARPU was up in all the regions except for LATAM where the growth was flat on a QoQ basis. Although ARPU growth was quite volatile between quarters, ARPU in UCAN, EMEA and APAC went up by 8.4%, 11.5% and 9% in Q1'21, respectively. Even though LATAM's ARPU was down YoY, but on a QoQ basis it was flat, so there was nothing materially serious to take note here. Therefore, NFLX's ARPU performance looked really good in Q1'21.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bee3698456324209ed6c9cf58bed58da\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"995\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Timeline of NFLX Price Hikes. Source:Variety</p>\n<p>If NFLX had faced intense competitive pressure in the past that forced it into a price war with competing platforms as it acquired more users, we would have seen the company forced to reduce its prices over time. On the contrary, NFLX has been increasing its prices steadily over time, with the latest round of price hikes on October 20. Even though there were some knee-jerk cancellations from some subscribers in the short term over the price hikes, over the long term it has never affected the company's ability to attract more users. This shows NFLX's strong competitive moat that gives it a huge ability to raise prices over time without losing its subscribers. In fact,NFLX well encapsulatedits strong ability to retain its subscribers despite the price hikes:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Our churn is actually below pre-price change levels already in the U.S. and in most of the markets and where we have adjusted prices and just some of the newer ones haven't come all the way back down, but they're rapidly getting there.\n</blockquote>\n<p>These well-planned price increases are extremely beneficial to NFLX's topline, given NFLX's growing subscriber base as the recent price increase is expected toadd $500Mto NFLX's revenue in FY 21 (consensus: $29.72B). Even though it's not a significant sum as compared to the revenue base, however more importantly it demonstrated clearly that NFLX has considerable pricing power in a highly competitive SVOD segment.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/42059a78e3a3f7dc656556dc27761343\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"958\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Top Reasons for Video Streaming Subscription Cancellations. Source:Variety</p>\n<p>When we consider that the single most important reason for subscribers to cancel their streaming subscriptions is: \"If the subscription price increased\", then investors should now be able to really understand how Mr. Market has significantly underestimated NFLX's pricing power, which is extremely important to NFLX's business model to introduce more and more high quality content as its subscriber base gets larger over time.</p>\n<p>If we revisit NFLX's ARPU by region again, we could certainly see a generally healthy trend of ARPU over time even as the company increased its prices. It's important to note that increasing subscriptions prices is the primary way for it to further monetize its growing user base (although the company has also recently introduced more monetization methods such asNetflix shop, as well as thegaming market, so investors are highly encouraged to continue monitoring these developments). The price increases will help to bolster the consistency of the ARPU such that it would help with times when the company has found some difficulty in adding more users such as in Q1'21, while YoY revenue growth was still very healthy.</p>\n<p>Investors should take note that NFLX's growing membership base of 208M paying members is a formidable moat for it to keep producing its slate of high quality original content.</p>\n<p>Strong Content Pipeline</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02eea9bd487d52b352dd3894f2563edf\" tg-width=\"1043\" tg-height=\"646\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Content Assets.

Thecompany emphasized:</p>\n<blockquote>\n [W]e think we'll get back to a much steadier state in the back half of the year and certainly in Q4, where we've got the returning seasons of some of our most popular shows like The Witcher and You and Cobra Kai as well as some big tempo movies that came to market a little slower than we'd hoped, like Red Notes with The Rock and Ryan Reynolds and Gaga, and Escape From Spiderhead with Chris Hemsworth, big event content.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Therefore, the company is not resting on its laurels and would keep on its record of producing high quality content to keep engagement at a high level with its viewers.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b4aaf52a7c9c18a4fc5664c9000282d1\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"781\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Ranking of original streaming series titles in the U.S. Data Source: Nielsen, Media Play News</p>\n<p>In this survey conducted in early May, NFLX's slate of original series took home 7 out of the top 10 slots for the most watched series, demonstrating the high quality and appeal of its content with viewers. In fact, there were many other surveys that also showed Netflix's dominance in viewership over time.</p>\n<p>Netflix's original content didn't just dominate hours watched, but also award nominations. The company highlighted its recent achievements:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Netflix led all studios for recent award nominations including the Oscars, Golden Globes, SAG Awards, BAFTA and the NAACP Image Awards, among others. Heading into the Academy Awards this weekend, we have 36 nominations across 17 films including two nominees in each of the Best Picture (Mank, The Trial of the Chicago 7), Best Documentary Feature (Crip Camp, My Octopus Teacher), and Best Animated Feature (Over the Moon, A Shaun The Sheep Movie: Farmageddon) categories.

Data Source: Reelgood</p>\n<p>In the SVOD space, we could clearly observe NFLX's importance to subscribers even if they subscribed to other services, which definitely helps to downplay the significance of increasing competitive threats to NFLX. In fact, NFLX was the most important service among these subscribers as the subscribers of the company's competitors also subscribed to NFLX: Peacock Premium (90%), HBO Max (90%), Amazon Prime (84%), Disney+ (87%), Hulu (85%) and Apple TV+ (92%), demonstrating clearly the importance and dominance of NFLX to its competitors' subscribers.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a2c1e2c429e015e113242ffeac4d3f07\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"371\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Netflix Video Content Budget. Data Source: eMarketer</p>\n<p>Many critics also pointed to NFLX's increasing need to dedicate huge amounts of investments to drive its engagement levels, protect its moat, grow its revenue. In fact, I think unless NFLX is working on a model like Roku, whose business model I havediscussed recently here, having a high quality slate of original content is important in order to maintain its competitive edge, especially when we have witnessed a series of industry consolidation where NFLX may lose more and more access to high quality licensed content, so NFLX's committed investments in original content a few years ago led by Co-CEO Ted Sarandos has certainly been a masterstroke that has helped maintain the company's competitive edge. In addition, NFLX has been getting more and more efficient in producing original content over time, certainly helped by the large and growing paying membership base, which as I mentioned in itself is a strong moat.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e592ee98fcd2477f5e9332e664c74afa\" tg-width=\"1153\" tg-height=\"712\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Other Operating Activities [LTM] as a % of Revenue [LTM]. Data Source: S&P Capital IQ</p>\n<p>NFLX's other operating activities segment mainly include the company's investments in content assets which are classified as a cash outflow in the company's Cash from Operations [CFO]. If we observed clearly, despite the company's increasing video content budget, these investments have been forming a smaller and smaller component of the company's revenue from 2018 (even if we were to exclude the skewed figures from recent quarters due to reduced original content being produced as a result of COVID-19 delays), demonstrating the company's improved CFO position that has driven results towards FCF profitability. As a result, this allowed the company to confidently declare to investors that: \"So we expect to be about cash flow breakeven this year and then sustainably free cash flow positive and growing thereafter.\" This is definitely a highly important development, as that means NFLX now has more and more cash flow flexibility to invest in content to further drive its competitive edge against its closest rivals. The company's expected FCF profitability has also given the company confidence to announce a $5B share buyback in order to return excess cash to investors.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee2072e791610e16b97ed6d432f1fcb9\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"750\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Projected Revenue Consensus Estimates, Projected Revenue Growth, Unlevered FCF Margin.

As a price-action, momentum based investor, seeing a stock that has demonstrated strong medium term and long term uptrend bias is of paramount importance to me and NFLX certainly checks all of that from this perspective. Although there are other growth stocks that have demonstrated a better uptrend bias profile, NFLX is not a slouch either. It has only lost its medium term 50W MA dynamic support only twice in the last 5 years: 2018 bear market decline of 45%, and Jul-Sep 19 decline of 35%. Even though the stock momentarily lost its 50W support level then, NFLX quickly regained its medium term support level, and during the COVID-19 bear market, NFLX never lost support of its medium term uptrend. Therefore, the 50W MA has proven to be a consistently strong medium term dynamic support level for NFLX over the last 5 years.\nNFLX's price has now approached its 50W support level again thanks to the weak market sentiments lately which makes it appropriate to discuss whether NFLX represents a good buying opportunity now for long term investors.\nSo What Happened to Netflix's Paid Adds?\n\nAverage Paying Membership by Region. Data Source: Company Filings\n\nAverage Paying Membership YoY Growth. Data Source: Company Filings\nAs we could observe clearly from the charts above, the market reacted negatively to NFLX's Q1'21 results, sending the stock down 8.21% the day after the release. It added just 3.98M net paid members in Q1'21, which was significantly weaker than the previous quarters as can be seen from its YoY Growth. The management mainly attributed this to the strong pull forward growth in membership during Q1'20 that has somewhat skewed the base upwards and may have disproportionately affected its growth in Q1'21. Although I think there is a reasonable basis for that line of argument, however we did not observe such a drastic decline in Roku, Inc. (ROKU) in its active accounts in Q1'21 (see charts below).\n\nRoku Active Accounts. Data Source: Company Filings\n\nRoku Active Accounts YoY Growth. Data Source: Company Filings\nWe could clearly observe Roku's Active accounts YoY growth of 34.7% in Q1'21 to be still largely in line with 2019's growth even though Roku also experienced pull forward growth from COVID-19 last year. Therefore, I think there is a reasonable basis to infer that NFLX's paid adds growth seemed to have slowed down pretty dramatically even though it should be noted that NFLX's net paid membership of 208M significantly outnumbered Roku's 53.6M active accounts and that was not a small difference.\nNow, if you are a short term trader or an \"investor\" with a horizon of 1 quarter, then perhaps it may be a reasonable basis to get out of the stock. However, for long term investors, many of whom NFLX has handsomely rewarded over the last ten years, we need to dig deeper to investigate whether there has been a significant change in its long term competitive moat from the latest quarter's aberration that may significantly change NFLX's ability to compete effectively and weaken the competitive dynamics of its business model.\nRevenue Growth Looks Good\n\nRevenue by Region. Data Source: Company Filings\n\nRevenue by Region YoY Growth. Data Source: Company Filings\nFirst up, let's take a look at its revenue by region performance. We could observe clearly that the company's most important revenue drivers: UCAN and EMEA had YoY revenue growth of 17.3% and 36% in Q1'21, respectively, as compared to 19.8% and 39.7% in Q1'20, respectively. Sure, there was a slight blip in its YoY growth rate in Q1'21, but it was still very much in line with Q4'20 YoY numbers (which Mr. Market cheered by pushing the stock up 17.74% the day after earnings release), so it was nothing too significant that warranted a serious look into its competitiveness. Moreover, its fastest growing region: APAC also looked to have performed well with a 57.6% YoY growth rate that was even better than Q1'20's YoY growth rate of 51.3%.\n\nARPU by Region. Data Source: Company Filings\n\nARPU by Region YoY Growth. Data Source: Company Filings\nNFLX also performed admirably well in its ARPU. ARPU was up in all the regions except for LATAM where the growth was flat on a QoQ basis. Although ARPU growth was quite volatile between quarters, ARPU in UCAN, EMEA and APAC went up by 8.4%, 11.5% and 9% in Q1'21, respectively. Even though LATAM's ARPU was down YoY, but on a QoQ basis it was flat, so there was nothing materially serious to take note here. Therefore, NFLX's ARPU performance looked really good in Q1'21.\n\nTimeline of NFLX Price Hikes. Source:Variety\nIf NFLX had faced intense competitive pressure in the past that forced it into a price war with competing platforms as it acquired more users, we would have seen the company forced to reduce its prices over time. On the contrary, NFLX has been increasing its prices steadily over time, with the latest round of price hikes on October 20. Even though there were some knee-jerk cancellations from some subscribers in the short term over the price hikes, over the long term it has never affected the company's ability to attract more users. This shows NFLX's strong competitive moat that gives it a huge ability to raise prices over time without losing its subscribers. In fact,NFLX well encapsulatedits strong ability to retain its subscribers despite the price hikes:\n\n Our churn is actually below pre-price change levels already in the U.S. and in most of the markets and where we have adjusted prices and just some of the newer ones haven't come all the way back down, but they're rapidly getting there.\n\nThese well-planned price increases are extremely beneficial to NFLX's topline, given NFLX's growing subscriber base as the recent price increase is expected toadd $500Mto NFLX's revenue in FY 21 (consensus: $29.72B). Even though it's not a significant sum as compared to the revenue base, however more importantly it demonstrated clearly that NFLX has considerable pricing power in a highly competitive SVOD segment.\n\nTop Reasons for Video Streaming Subscription Cancellations. Source:Variety\nWhen we consider that the single most important reason for subscribers to cancel their streaming subscriptions is: \"If the subscription price increased\", then investors should now be able to really understand how Mr. Market has significantly underestimated NFLX's pricing power, which is extremely important to NFLX's business model to introduce more and more high quality content as its subscriber base gets larger over time.\nIf we revisit NFLX's ARPU by region again, we could certainly see a generally healthy trend of ARPU over time even as the company increased its prices. It's important to note that increasing subscriptions prices is the primary way for it to further monetize its growing user base (although the company has also recently introduced more monetization methods such asNetflix shop, as well as thegaming market, so investors are highly encouraged to continue monitoring these developments). The price increases will help to bolster the consistency of the ARPU such that it would help with times when the company has found some difficulty in adding more users such as in Q1'21, while YoY revenue growth was still very healthy.\nInvestors should take note that NFLX's growing membership base of 208M paying members is a formidable moat for it to keep producing its slate of high quality original content.\nStrong Content Pipeline\n\nContent Assets. Data Source: Company Filings\n\nProduced Content YoY Growth. Data Source: Company Filings\nNFLX has been growing its original content base rapidly over the last few years, although the COVID-19 crisis has somewhat slowed down its growth. Thecompany emphasized:\n\n [W]e think we'll get back to a much steadier state in the back half of the year and certainly in Q4, where we've got the returning seasons of some of our most popular shows like The Witcher and You and Cobra Kai as well as some big tempo movies that came to market a little slower than we'd hoped, like Red Notes with The Rock and Ryan Reynolds and Gaga, and Escape From Spiderhead with Chris Hemsworth, big event content.\n\nTherefore, the company is not resting on its laurels and would keep on its record of producing high quality content to keep engagement at a high level with its viewers.\n\nRanking of original streaming series titles in the U.S. Data Source: Nielsen, Media Play News\nIn this survey conducted in early May, NFLX's slate of original series took home 7 out of the top 10 slots for the most watched series, demonstrating the high quality and appeal of its content with viewers. In fact, there were many other surveys that also showed Netflix's dominance in viewership over time.\nNetflix's original content didn't just dominate hours watched, but also award nominations. The company highlighted its recent achievements:\n\n Netflix led all studios for recent award nominations including the Oscars, Golden Globes, SAG Awards, BAFTA and the NAACP Image Awards, among others. Heading into the Academy Awards this weekend, we have 36 nominations across 17 films including two nominees in each of the Best Picture (Mank, The Trial of the Chicago 7), Best Documentary Feature (Crip Camp, My Octopus Teacher), and Best Animated Feature (Over the Moon, A Shaun The Sheep Movie: Farmageddon) categories. Mank led all films with 10 nominations.\n\n\nReasons for subscribing to SVOD services in the U.S. Data Source: Vorhaus Advisors\nAs we could observe from the above, high quality original series (35%) and specific TV series or movies (43%) ranked very highly on the reasons for subscribing to SVOD services, and investors can rest assured that NFLX is certainly leading in these areas.\n\nShare of SVOD subscribers, who also subscribe to other services. Data Source: Reelgood\nIn the SVOD space, we could clearly observe NFLX's importance to subscribers even if they subscribed to other services, which definitely helps to downplay the significance of increasing competitive threats to NFLX. In fact, NFLX was the most important service among these subscribers as the subscribers of the company's competitors also subscribed to NFLX: Peacock Premium (90%), HBO Max (90%), Amazon Prime (84%), Disney+ (87%), Hulu (85%) and Apple TV+ (92%), demonstrating clearly the importance and dominance of NFLX to its competitors' subscribers.\n\nNetflix Video Content Budget. Data Source: eMarketer\nMany critics also pointed to NFLX's increasing need to dedicate huge amounts of investments to drive its engagement levels, protect its moat, grow its revenue. In fact, I think unless NFLX is working on a model like Roku, whose business model I havediscussed recently here, having a high quality slate of original content is important in order to maintain its competitive edge, especially when we have witnessed a series of industry consolidation where NFLX may lose more and more access to high quality licensed content, so NFLX's committed investments in original content a few years ago led by Co-CEO Ted Sarandos has certainly been a masterstroke that has helped maintain the company's competitive edge. In addition, NFLX has been getting more and more efficient in producing original content over time, certainly helped by the large and growing paying membership base, which as I mentioned in itself is a strong moat.\n\nOther Operating Activities [LTM] as a % of Revenue [LTM]. Data Source: S&P Capital IQ\nNFLX's other operating activities segment mainly include the company's investments in content assets which are classified as a cash outflow in the company's Cash from Operations [CFO]. If we observed clearly, despite the company's increasing video content budget, these investments have been forming a smaller and smaller component of the company's revenue from 2018 (even if we were to exclude the skewed figures from recent quarters due to reduced original content being produced as a result of COVID-19 delays), demonstrating the company's improved CFO position that has driven results towards FCF profitability. As a result, this allowed the company to confidently declare to investors that: \"So we expect to be about cash flow breakeven this year and then sustainably free cash flow positive and growing thereafter.\" This is definitely a highly important development, as that means NFLX now has more and more cash flow flexibility to invest in content to further drive its competitive edge against its closest rivals. The company's expected FCF profitability has also given the company confidence to announce a $5B share buyback in order to return excess cash to investors.\n\nProjected Revenue Consensus Estimates, Projected Revenue Growth, Unlevered FCF Margin. Data Source: S&P Capital IQ\nIn fact, when I factored in NFLX's growth assumptions into its forecast model, NFLX is expected to consistently improve its FCF margin in the years ahead, while maintaining a steady revenue growth over time. NFLX is fast becoming a FCF driver that is capable of sustaining its growth and protecting its competitive moat strongly.\nSVOD market share in Japan. Data Source: GEM Partners\nTurning to NFLX's fastest growing region: APAC (shortsighted investors seemed to ignore NFLX's dominance in this region). There's absolutely no doubt who was the clear leader in the SVOD market in Japan with NFLX holding a 19.5% market share. In fact, Japan was expected to take over Australia as APAC'slargest market by the end of 2021. Japan's revenue is expected to grow at about 37% YoY from $2.4B to $3.3B, and subscriptions from 25.5M to 33.3M, which would represent a 30.6% increase YoY.\n\nMost popular OTT in Korea. Data Source: IGAWorks\nIn its third largest APAC market: Korea, NFLX is also the well-established leader with a market share well ahead of the other OTT services, allowing the company a lot of leverage in producing top quality original Korean content. Korean content is very popular in Asia, and Netflix relies heavily on the Korean Wave (Hallyu) as the main gateway to audiences in Asia and has committed$500M to invest in Korean content in 2021 alone, from $700M spent between 2015 to 2020. Co-CEO Ted Sarandos summed up the company's approach in Korean content:\n\nOver the last two years, we've seen the world falling in love with incredible Korean content, made in Korea and watched by the world on Netflix. Our commitment towards Korea is strong. We will continue to invest and collaborate with Korean storytellers across a wealth of genres and formats.\n\n\nPopular OTT for accessing Korean Dramas Worldwide. Data Source: Korean Foundation for International Cultural Exchange; MCST Korea\nNetflix's commitment to build up its investments in Korean content has allowed it to maintain a strong position as the second ranked OTT platform behind YouTube for worldwide access to Korean dramas mainly because in my opinion, AVOD-based YouTube is free. However, Netflix has produced a lot of Original Series Korean dramas that have often quickly become a hit, and which were not available for distribution on YouTube.\nThe Elephant in the Room: Disney\n\nEstimated number of SVOD subscribers worldwide. Data Source: Digital TV Research\nDisney (DIS) perhaps represents the largest threat in terms of subscribers growth as it's expected to take over NFLX as the largest SVOD player worldwide by 2026 with 294M subscribers as compared to NFLX's 286M subscribers.\nDIS has grown its subscribers base impressively as it reached103.6M subscribers in Q2'21. DIS's Hotstar platform is the dominant platform in two of Asia's most populated countries: Indonesia and India. This is expected to continue driving strong subscribers growth that would help it to exceed NFLX's subscriber base eventually.\n\nDIS+ ARPU. Data Source: Company Filings\nHowever, DIS's ARPU is also substantially lower than NFLX as Hotstar is very much a lower-priced offering and therefore skewing DIS's ARPU to the downside even as it adds more users. However, Hotstar looks like the better equipped option for growth in these two important Asian markets for DIS and I think DISpossesses the edge over here.\n\nEstimated penetration rate. Data Source: The Motley Fool, Stifel\nHowever, NFLX is still expected to make inroads in all its segments, and particularly in APAC and EMEA as it continues to drive content growth to cater to the markets where it has the lead. l certainly think NFLX can't win in all markets, and in some markets the company definitely has to spend a lot more time and resources to develop them such as in APAC where its penetration is still very low, therefore offering huge potential for growth.\n\nOTT Revenue Worldwide. Data Source: Digital TV Research\nMost importantly, the whole market still offers a lot of opportunities for growth for well positioned players in both the AVOD and the SVOD space. In the SVOD market, it is expected to grow at about 10.16% CAGR from 2020 to 2025, which although not as fast as the AVOD market, it's still expected to grow at a highly respectable rate.\nValuations are Not Expensive\n\nRevenue CAGR and Revenue Multiples. Data Source: S&P Capital IQ\nNFLX's projected growth (5Y CAGR of 15.1%) is definitely expected to slow as it matures, and turn FCF profitable. I don't think it's a bad thing. NFLX is still the dominant player in SVOD and expected to be so. In addition, it's still expected to grow faster than the SVOD market growth of 10.1%, thus further reinforcing NFLX's market leadership expectation. In addition, it's also trading at a slight discount on its EV / FY+1 Rev of 7.8x as compared to its 5Y Av. EV / LTM Rev of 8.8x.\n\nCapEX Margin & Projected CapEx Margin. Data Source: S&P Capital IQ\n\n5Y Av. EV / EBITDA & EV / Fwd EBITDA. Data Source: S&P Capital IQ\nGiven that its CapEX margins (see above) are expected to be largely consistent over time as compared to the last few years, I also find it useful to consider its cash flow generating capacity and value it accordingly. When we consider NFLX's EV / Fwd EBITDA (see above), we could see the company's improved FCF generating capability has now made NFLX a lot more undervalued than when we compared it against its revenue growth.\n\nEV / Fwd (EBITDA - CapEx). Data Source: S&P Capital IQ\nIn fact, NFLX is expected to continue generating a high level FCF moving forward which would thus further support the NFLX's competitive valuation from the FCF point of view.\nPrice Action and Technical Analysis\n\nSource: TradingView\nThe current price level at $489 is a possible entry point, with a more conservative entry point at $458. The \"Buy more\" entry point is at $398, which is also supported above the key 200W MA. Avoid buying near $563 and $593 in the near term as they look to be key resistance levels.\nWrapping it all up\nNetflix's \"loss of competitiveness\" and \"weak fundamentals\" that were called into question recently are largely unfounded. The company enjoys strong dominance and competitive advantages in the SVOD market that is still expected to grow at double digit growth rates of which NFLX is expected to exploit in the years ahead.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":436,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160022541,"gmtCreate":1623767187083,"gmtModify":1703818793148,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Dead stock","listText":"Dead stock","text":"Dead stock","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/160022541","repostId":"1127088935","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1127088935","pubTimestamp":1623765392,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1127088935?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-15 21:56","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba stock on watch ahead of major Chinese shopping festival","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1127088935","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"China's industry ministryhas warnedAlibaba(NYSE:BABA), JD.com(NASDAQ:JD), and Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD)t","content":"<p>China's industry ministryhas warnedAlibaba(NYSE:BABA), JD.com(NASDAQ:JD), and Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD)to regulate their promotional phone messages related to the upcoming annual June 18 shopping festival.</p>\n<p>The seemingly minor warning gains more importance due to China's ongoing crackdown on tech names, which led to the last-minute halt of fintech giant Ant Group's blockbuster IPO late last year and the more recent record antitrust fine for Alibaba.</p>\n<p>The massive 6.18 shopping event is closely watched for signs of consumer health in one of the world's largest economies.</p>\n<p>Last year, Alibaba had 6.18 gross merchandise volume of $98.52B, and JD.com had total transaction volume of $37.99B.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8f6a01b5466a4409f5ba6e1f8b6331bc\" tg-width=\"290\" tg-height=\"129\"></p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

While a Powell press conference is important whenever it happens, this one has more significance than usual because of what the Fed said at its April meeting.</p><p>Minutes from that gathering raised the chance of the Fed beginning to plan some sort of “taper” if the economy keeps galloping along. Remember, the Fed’s been snapping up $120 billion in Treasury bonds and mortgage-backed securities each month to provide liquidity and keep rates low during the pandemic, but has said it will begin “tapering,” or slowing the pace of those purchases, if certain employment parameters are met. Chances of a taper happening in the relatively near future suddenly appeared more likely based on the following words in the April minutes:</p><p>“A number of participants suggested that if the economy continued to make rapid progress toward the Committee’s goals, it might be appropriate at some point in upcoming meetings to begin discussing a plan for adjusting the pace of asset purchases.”</p><p>That statement appeared to surprise some analysts. They hadn’t expected the FOMC to publicly ponder actual tapering until possibly later this year. Those words, along with a string of robust economic data and earnings numbers, might have investors on tenterhooks waiting to hear the Fed’s fresh thinking on June 16. Will it give any hint of how long it’s willing to let things continue rolling full steam ahead? Just how worried are Powell and company about rising prices?</p><p>Any sign that the Fed is ready to taper earlier than expected could cause Treasury yields to rise and potentially put pressure on the stock market.</p><p>As The Fed Turns...</p><p>It’s hard to blame Fed officials for wondering if the economy might be on the verge of overheating. After all, Q1 gross domestic product (GDP) grew more than 6%, the highest in decades. Layoffs appear to be trending much lower, if weekly initial jobless claims are correct, and many companies said during Q1 earnings season that they’re having supply chain issues even while paying more for the raw materials they need. This raises concerns about producer inflation making its way to consumers.</p><p>The final straw might have been April’s consumer price index (CPI), which showed more than 4% year-over-year growth, the highest in a decade. Core month-over-month CPI saw its sharpest rise since April 1982, when President Reagan was serving his first term and Powell was a recent law school graduate.</p><p>Though the Fed didn’t have all of this data in hand when it met in late April, the signs were already pointing toward major economic growth and price pressure, putting the Fed between the proverbial rock and a hard place.</p><p>Powell has emphasized the importance of getting millions back to work, with unemployment still around 6% more than a year after the pandemic began. Earlier this year, the Fed made it very clear it would tolerate inflation above its 2% long-term target until employment got back on track, but this risks the chance of price pressure hurting consumers and companies. Corporate margins look very positive right now coming off huge Q1 earnings growth, but inflation over coming months could change that, perhaps resulting in pressure on stocks.</p><p>There could be more Fed remarks in the next week or two, but then the pre-meeting silent period begins and June 16 looms. Powell is almost certainly going to face questions about those April meeting minutes.</p><p>Tug-Of-War Persists Between Growth And Value</p><p>All this focus on the Fed turns attention to the benchmark 10-year Treasury yield, a major metric for economic growth, inflation, and interest rate anticipation. It rallied from near historic lows of around 0.95% at the start of the year to a late-March high of 1.78% as the economy improved and inflation fears gathered. It then pulled back and hung around near 1.6% for a couple of months, trading at 1.61% as of late May.</p><p>Anywhere above 1.75% might look interesting now, and 2% might spark some fear in the market. The rally in yields earlier this year really helped snuff out the Info Tech rally, since many of those stocks are priced in part based on anticipation of future growth, something higher borrowing costs might compress.</p><p>That helped lead to the current tug-of-war between value sectors like Financials and Energy that tend to do better in a recovering economy where inflation is rising and Growth ones like Tech that outperformed during the shutdowns of 2020. The battle has raged most of the last two months, though there are now signs of at least some investors beginning to bifurcate Tech between the huge, mature companies like <b>Apple</b>AAPL 0.09%and <b>Microsoft</b>MSFT 0.05%and smaller firms more dependent on keeping future growth paths skyrocketing. The AAPLs and MSFTs of the world have often led the broader market higher the last few years, and could be less vulnerable then smaller Tech firms if interest rates do start to rise.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/feb0c06151e4a6b134b2691ef5949530\" tg-width=\"960\" tg-height=\"509\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>FIGURE 1: MAY MALAISE.</b>After a strong start to 2021, the S&P 500 Index (SPX—candlestick) had some struggles in May amid inflation worries. The Nasdaq 100 (NDX—purple line) has had a much more checkered year as some investors favored value over growth sectors, and continued to be weak heading into June. Data Sources: S&P Dow Jones Indices, Nasdaq. Chart source: The thinkorswim® platform. <i>For illustrative purposes only. Past performance does not guarantee future results.</i></p><p>But we may be putting the cart ahead of the horse, so to speak. The April jobs growth number of 266,000 was way, way below Wall Street’s expectations for more than 700,000 and some bullish predictions of a million. That puts focus squarely on the May jobs growth number, due June 4. Another weak jobs reading for May might take some pressure off of the Fed and rates, with “bad news” possibly becoming “good news” for stocks, so to speak.</p><p>Remember that different U.S. states were in different reopening modes in April, which may have affected that number. It’s possible some of the earlier job growth won’t show up until May, or the April number could be revised upward once things become clearer. A lot of what Powell says and does on June 16 will likely reflect the jobs report, along with inflation data like the May 28 personal consumption expenditure (PCE) prices, which the Fed is known to follow closely.</p><p>The May CPI report on June 10 is another key one to watch next month when it comes to inflation. The Fed will have all that material in hand by the time it meets, giving it a clearer perspective.</p><p>Homebuilders, “Stay-At-Home” Stocks Among June Earnings Reports</p><p>That’s a mouthful about the Fed, inflation, jobs, and yields. What about the corporate world?</p><p>As we emerge from a Q1 earnings season where the average S&P 500 company recorded earnings per share growth of nearly 52%, according to Factset, you might think earnings aren’t a big calendar item in June. That’s only partially true. While we won’t see a big crush of earnings reports, there are some key ones to watch, especially in the home building sector where both <b>Lennar</b> and <b>KB Home</b> are expected to report during the month.</p><p>The housing market has been red hot, so a couple of April data points that missed analysts’ expectations (existing home sales and housing starts) might not be too big a deal. Having said that, the economy’s reopening could take peoples’ attention away from home buying and give strength to companies that focus on experiences rather than products. It’s possible some of the strength in housing and home improvement got pulled forward by the pandemic, just as we saw demand for internet conferences and home exercise equipment pulled forward. Keep an eye on what LEN and KBH say about demand when they report.</p><p><b>Zoom Video</b> ,<b> Kroger</b> , <b>Chewy</b> , and <b>Slack</b> are some other companies whose businesses saw a big impact from Covid and release earnings in June. Most of them benefitted from people staying at home, questions remain over how much of their recent growth in sales has been sustainable vs. “demand pulled forward.” Many of their shares have lost ground and investors are eager to hear how they plan to keep the fizz bubbling post-Covid. Meanwhile, Tech earnings are a bit scarce in the month ahead, but <b>Oracle</b> is expected to be on the June release calendar.</p><p>Keeping Watch on Crypto, Volatility</p><p>Like it or not, cryptocurrency could also help determine the market’s direction in June. It seemed like bitcoin set some of the momentum in late May, though that’s not a permanent indicator by any stretch of the imagination. However, when the news flow gets quiet and people start looking for indicators on how to trade, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have been something many investors watch. The question is whether the stock market is starting to divorce itself more from cryptocurrency after huge swings in bitcoin prices recently.</p><p>Volatility is another metric to watch. The <b>Cboe Volatility Index</b>(VIX) hung around near 20 in late May after a month where it seldom went below 18 or above 25. VIX typically spends a long time trading in specific ranges, so the next thing to check is whether the current range holds or if it steps up or down. A move higher in volatility, especially any prolonged stays above 25, would presumably reflect mounting investor uncertainty and worries about what’s ahead. If VIX falls below 20 and stays there awhile, it could point to a quiet summer.</p><p>We haven’t mentioned Covid so far except in passing. That’s a good thing, because it means it’s not front and center the way it once was. As of late May, the U.S. seemed to be on very good footing thanks to vaccinations, with case counts falling to the lowest daily levels in nearly a year. No one knows if this will continue, but we can be hopeful.</p><p>We can also hope that the current devastating impact of Covid in parts of Asia slows down in the month ahead. Right now, it appears that the situation there might be putting a bit of pressure on the blazing commodity markets amid worries about overseas demand for products like crude and copper. China also tried to clamp down on commodity prices in late May, saying it will move to reduce speculation.</p><p>We started with inflation, so might as well end with it.

While a Powell press conference is important whenever it happens, this one has more significance than usual because of what the Fed said at its April meeting.Minutes from that gathering raised the chance of the Fed beginning to plan some sort of “taper” if the economy keeps galloping along. Remember, the Fed’s been snapping up $120 billion in Treasury bonds and mortgage-backed securities each month to provide liquidity and keep rates low during the pandemic, but has said it will begin “tapering,” or slowing the pace of those purchases, if certain employment parameters are met. Chances of a taper happening in the relatively near future suddenly appeared more likely based on the following words in the April minutes:“A number of participants suggested that if the economy continued to make rapid progress toward the Committee’s goals, it might be appropriate at some point in upcoming meetings to begin discussing a plan for adjusting the pace of asset purchases.”That statement appeared to surprise some analysts. They hadn’t expected the FOMC to publicly ponder actual tapering until possibly later this year. Those words, along with a string of robust economic data and earnings numbers, might have investors on tenterhooks waiting to hear the Fed’s fresh thinking on June 16. Will it give any hint of how long it’s willing to let things continue rolling full steam ahead? Just how worried are Powell and company about rising prices?Any sign that the Fed is ready to taper earlier than expected could cause Treasury yields to rise and potentially put pressure on the stock market.As The Fed Turns...It’s hard to blame Fed officials for wondering if the economy might be on the verge of overheating. After all, Q1 gross domestic product (GDP) grew more than 6%, the highest in decades. Layoffs appear to be trending much lower, if weekly initial jobless claims are correct, and many companies said during Q1 earnings season that they’re having supply chain issues even while paying more for the raw materials they need. This raises concerns about producer inflation making its way to consumers.The final straw might have been April’s consumer price index (CPI), which showed more than 4% year-over-year growth, the highest in a decade. Core month-over-month CPI saw its sharpest rise since April 1982, when President Reagan was serving his first term and Powell was a recent law school graduate.Though the Fed didn’t have all of this data in hand when it met in late April, the signs were already pointing toward major economic growth and price pressure, putting the Fed between the proverbial rock and a hard place.Powell has emphasized the importance of getting millions back to work, with unemployment still around 6% more than a year after the pandemic began. Earlier this year, the Fed made it very clear it would tolerate inflation above its 2% long-term target until employment got back on track, but this risks the chance of price pressure hurting consumers and companies. Corporate margins look very positive right now coming off huge Q1 earnings growth, but inflation over coming months could change that, perhaps resulting in pressure on stocks.There could be more Fed remarks in the next week or two, but then the pre-meeting silent period begins and June 16 looms. Powell is almost certainly going to face questions about those April meeting minutes.Tug-Of-War Persists Between Growth And ValueAll this focus on the Fed turns attention to the benchmark 10-year Treasury yield, a major metric for economic growth, inflation, and interest rate anticipation. It rallied from near historic lows of around 0.95% at the start of the year to a late-March high of 1.78% as the economy improved and inflation fears gathered. It then pulled back and hung around near 1.6% for a couple of months, trading at 1.61% as of late May.Anywhere above 1.75% might look interesting now, and 2% might spark some fear in the market. The rally in yields earlier this year really helped snuff out the Info Tech rally, since many of those stocks are priced in part based on anticipation of future growth, something higher borrowing costs might compress.That helped lead to the current tug-of-war between value sectors like Financials and Energy that tend to do better in a recovering economy where inflation is rising and Growth ones like Tech that outperformed during the shutdowns of 2020. The battle has raged most of the last two months, though there are now signs of at least some investors beginning to bifurcate Tech between the huge, mature companies like AppleAAPL 0.09%and MicrosoftMSFT 0.05%and smaller firms more dependent on keeping future growth paths skyrocketing. The AAPLs and MSFTs of the world have often led the broader market higher the last few years, and could be less vulnerable then smaller Tech firms if interest rates do start to rise.FIGURE 1: MAY MALAISE.After a strong start to 2021, the S&P 500 Index (SPX—candlestick) had some struggles in May amid inflation worries. The Nasdaq 100 (NDX—purple line) has had a much more checkered year as some investors favored value over growth sectors, and continued to be weak heading into June. Data Sources: S&P Dow Jones Indices, Nasdaq. Chart source: The thinkorswim® platform. For illustrative purposes only. Past performance does not guarantee future results.But we may be putting the cart ahead of the horse, so to speak. The April jobs growth number of 266,000 was way, way below Wall Street’s expectations for more than 700,000 and some bullish predictions of a million. That puts focus squarely on the May jobs growth number, due June 4. Another weak jobs reading for May might take some pressure off of the Fed and rates, with “bad news” possibly becoming “good news” for stocks, so to speak.Remember that different U.S. states were in different reopening modes in April, which may have affected that number. It’s possible some of the earlier job growth won’t show up until May, or the April number could be revised upward once things become clearer. A lot of what Powell says and does on June 16 will likely reflect the jobs report, along with inflation data like the May 28 personal consumption expenditure (PCE) prices, which the Fed is known to follow closely.The May CPI report on June 10 is another key one to watch next month when it comes to inflation. The Fed will have all that material in hand by the time it meets, giving it a clearer perspective.Homebuilders, “Stay-At-Home” Stocks Among June Earnings ReportsThat’s a mouthful about the Fed, inflation, jobs, and yields. What about the corporate world?As we emerge from a Q1 earnings season where the average S&P 500 company recorded earnings per share growth of nearly 52%, according to Factset, you might think earnings aren’t a big calendar item in June. That’s only partially true. While we won’t see a big crush of earnings reports, there are some key ones to watch, especially in the home building sector where both Lennar and KB Home are expected to report during the month.The housing market has been red hot, so a couple of April data points that missed analysts’ expectations (existing home sales and housing starts) might not be too big a deal. Having said that, the economy’s reopening could take peoples’ attention away from home buying and give strength to companies that focus on experiences rather than products. It’s possible some of the strength in housing and home improvement got pulled forward by the pandemic, just as we saw demand for internet conferences and home exercise equipment pulled forward. Keep an eye on what LEN and KBH say about demand when they report.Zoom Video , Kroger , Chewy , and Slack are some other companies whose businesses saw a big impact from Covid and release earnings in June. Most of them benefitted from people staying at home, questions remain over how much of their recent growth in sales has been sustainable vs. “demand pulled forward.” Many of their shares have lost ground and investors are eager to hear how they plan to keep the fizz bubbling post-Covid. Meanwhile, Tech earnings are a bit scarce in the month ahead, but Oracle is expected to be on the June release calendar.Keeping Watch on Crypto, VolatilityLike it or not, cryptocurrency could also help determine the market’s direction in June. It seemed like bitcoin set some of the momentum in late May, though that’s not a permanent indicator by any stretch of the imagination. However, when the news flow gets quiet and people start looking for indicators on how to trade, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have been something many investors watch. The question is whether the stock market is starting to divorce itself more from cryptocurrency after huge swings in bitcoin prices recently.Volatility is another metric to watch. The Cboe Volatility Index(VIX) hung around near 20 in late May after a month where it seldom went below 18 or above 25. VIX typically spends a long time trading in specific ranges, so the next thing to check is whether the current range holds or if it steps up or down. A move higher in volatility, especially any prolonged stays above 25, would presumably reflect mounting investor uncertainty and worries about what’s ahead. If VIX falls below 20 and stays there awhile, it could point to a quiet summer.We haven’t mentioned Covid so far except in passing. That’s a good thing, because it means it’s not front and center the way it once was. As of late May, the U.S. seemed to be on very good footing thanks to vaccinations, with case counts falling to the lowest daily levels in nearly a year. No one knows if this will continue, but we can be hopeful.We can also hope that the current devastating impact of Covid in parts of Asia slows down in the month ahead. Right now, it appears that the situation there might be putting a bit of pressure on the blazing commodity markets amid worries about overseas demand for products like crude and copper. China also tried to clamp down on commodity prices in late May, saying it will move to reduce speculation.We started with inflation, so might as well end with it. The commodities market is another aspect of pricing pressure, especially for companies in the Materials, Information Technology, Transport, and Industrial sectors. Costs rose sharply so far this year for many of the core products they use, but if commodities continue to level off or even fall in June, that could relieve some of the pressure on companies and the Fed. Whether that happens could be determined by progress against the pandemic the next few weeks in places like India, Japan, and South Korea.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":146,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3579698948878933","authorId":"3579698948878933","name":"Charmmy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c391903e07c32df1c580c1844f0fd9f7","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3579698948878933","authorIdStr":"3579698948878933"},"content":"help comment thanks","text":"help comment thanks","html":"help comment thanks"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":133411228,"gmtCreate":1621781692364,"gmtModify":1704362359365,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"To the moon","listText":"To the moon","text":"To the moon","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/133411228","repostId":"1111747453","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":162,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":139661730,"gmtCreate":1621614952120,"gmtModify":1704360634411,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Lesgooooo ","listText":"Lesgooooo ","text":"Lesgooooo","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/139661730","repostId":"1198772655","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":176,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":104664010,"gmtCreate":1620386225130,"gmtModify":1704342909884,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment and like pls ","listText":"Comment and like pls ","text":"Comment and like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/104664010","repostId":"1157328258","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1157328258","pubTimestamp":1620360165,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1157328258?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-07 12:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon: The Most Clearly Undervalued Company","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1157328258","media":"Seeking alpha","summary":"SummaryAmazon is one of the companies whose growth has not yet reached its limit and not even entere","content":"<p>Summary</p><ul><li>Amazon is one of the companies whose growth has not yet reached its limit and not even entered the plateau phase.</li><li>In terms of comparative valuation, AMZN is undervalued against the market.</li><li>DCF-based Amazon stock price target suggests 30% upside potential.

Without taking into account the last four quarters, a near-linear trend was observed here. Now, it has become exponential:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bac49a9df0e5b978dc15e20bedfce3da\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p>The 'Third-Party Seller Services' segment - the exponential growth continues:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6b58df42726bc01c8a5e5c2940d0476d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p>The 'Subscription Services' (Amazon Prime) segment - here the acceleration remains, and the result of the last quarter was better than the trend:</p><p><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p>The 'Other' (advertising services) segment has also showed a significant acceleration:<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a58095394bdd79d561166a74942a9e55\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p>The growth trend of 'Amazon Web Services' has slowed down, but judging by the results of the last quarter, there is a gradual return to the previous trend:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/07069ccaab37c32eed56da69881e7bce\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p>Geographically, Amazon's revenue was also significantly better than the trend:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a1d9246e5c01aac6c62e49ad7cd73e2c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0e7276161a3d2b2159ab3d727d3cb7d9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p><i>So, statistically, not subjectively, we should recognize the acceleration of the company's growth</i><i><b>in all key segments</b></i><i>. In my opinion, this is exactly what is expected from Amazon.</i></p><p>Further. Over the last 10 years, Amazon's capitalization has been in a qualitative linear relationship with its revenue:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f105c314902d29dae4d0f0e400aa2245\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p>There is also a certain influence of the company's revenue growth rate on its multiples:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8beca01b5624a15aab79465c580ded6b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p>Based on these two relationships and taking into account the influence of the growth of theM2 money stockin the US, it is possible to build another model that allows us to determine the balanced level of the company's capitalization. In addition, this model allows to model the growth of the company's capitalization based on the current expectations of analysts regarding the company's revenue growth in the next four quarters. Here is this model:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/083fa1dc350e5e54cc7d3145744c9e4c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d63f0cff5e0dd83343d26ee90552a033\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p><i>As you can see, firstly, this model indicates that the company's current price is already</i><i><b>below the balanced level</b></i><i>. And secondly, it assumes a</i><i><b>25% growth</b></i><i>in capitalization in the next four quarters.</i></p><p>#2 Comparative Valuation</p><p>In the previous block, I modeled Amazon's balanced price based on revenue. What is remarkable is that if we apply the same approach to the comparative valuation of the company using multiples, we will fail. At least I have not been able to find a single revenue-based multiple that would make it possible to successfully compare Amazon to other companies. But the forward P/E (next FY) multiple adjusted by the expected EPS annual growth rate made it possible to find a suitable model:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97ac0310bcef622e12c8c21d46979f7e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8d7573ff8a7fc00719a51042f09fc989\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p><i>As you can see, judging by this multiple, Amazon is significantly undervalued.</i></p><p>#3 Discounted Cash Flow Model</p><p>When predicting Amazon's revenue for the next decade, I proceeded from the average expectations ofanalysts:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9f41298db73dbcd92469026cc4e767c4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"323\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>Source: Seeking Alpha Pro</i></p><p>When predicting the dynamics of Amazon's operating margin, I also proceeded from analysts'expectationsregarding the growth of the company's EPS, and taking into account the gradual increase in the tax rate to 25%. In my opinion, a gradual increase in the operating margin to 8% in the terminal year is a very realistic scenario.</p><p>Here is the calculation of the Weighted Average Cost of Capital:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/759163398701e54efd7cfabd11a0867d\" tg-width=\"480\" tg-height=\"374\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>Source: Author</i></p><p>Some explanations:</p><ul><li>In order to calculate the market rate of return, I used values of equityriskpremium (4.72%) and the current yield of UST10 as a risk-free rate (1.6%).</li><li>I used the currentvalueof the three-year beta coefficient (0.92).

But I think this is not even a basic scenario, but a pessimistic scenario.I present my comprehensive Amazon (AMZN) analysis in light of the results of the last quarter.#1 Price vs. GrowthFirst of all, let's assess whether we can statistically state that Amazon's growth has accelerated or slowed down in the last quarter. To do this, let's compare the revenue growth trends of the key segments of the company with and without the results of the last four quarters.The dynamics of the 'Online Stores' segment showed a qualitative breakthrough. Without taking into account the last four quarters, a near-linear trend was observed here. Now, it has become exponential:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comThe 'Third-Party Seller Services' segment - the exponential growth continues:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comThe 'Subscription Services' (Amazon Prime) segment - here the acceleration remains, and the result of the last quarter was better than the trend:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comThe 'Other' (advertising services) segment has also showed a significant acceleration:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comThe growth trend of 'Amazon Web Services' has slowed down, but judging by the results of the last quarter, there is a gradual return to the previous trend:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comGeographically, Amazon's revenue was also significantly better than the trend:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comSo, statistically, not subjectively, we should recognize the acceleration of the company's growthin all key segments. In my opinion, this is exactly what is expected from Amazon.Further. Over the last 10 years, Amazon's capitalization has been in a qualitative linear relationship with its revenue:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comThere is also a certain influence of the company's revenue growth rate on its multiples:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comBased on these two relationships and taking into account the influence of the growth of theM2 money stockin the US, it is possible to build another model that allows us to determine the balanced level of the company's capitalization. In addition, this model allows to model the growth of the company's capitalization based on the current expectations of analysts regarding the company's revenue growth in the next four quarters. Here is this model:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comAs you can see, firstly, this model indicates that the company's current price is alreadybelow the balanced level. And secondly, it assumes a25% growthin capitalization in the next four quarters.#2 Comparative ValuationIn the previous block, I modeled Amazon's balanced price based on revenue. What is remarkable is that if we apply the same approach to the comparative valuation of the company using multiples, we will fail. At least I have not been able to find a single revenue-based multiple that would make it possible to successfully compare Amazon to other companies. But the forward P/E (next FY) multiple adjusted by the expected EPS annual growth rate made it possible to find a suitable model:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comAs you can see, judging by this multiple, Amazon is significantly undervalued.#3 Discounted Cash Flow ModelWhen predicting Amazon's revenue for the next decade, I proceeded from the average expectations ofanalysts:Source: Seeking Alpha ProWhen predicting the dynamics of Amazon's operating margin, I also proceeded from analysts'expectationsregarding the growth of the company's EPS, and taking into account the gradual increase in the tax rate to 25%. In my opinion, a gradual increase in the operating margin to 8% in the terminal year is a very realistic scenario.Here is the calculation of the Weighted Average Cost of Capital:Source: AuthorSome explanations:In order to calculate the market rate of return, I used values of equityriskpremium (4.72%) and the current yield of UST10 as a risk-free rate (1.6%).I used the currentvalueof the three-year beta coefficient (0.92). For the terminal year, I used Beta equal to 1.To calculate the Cost of Debt, I used the interest expense for 2019 and 2020 divided by the debt value for the same years.Here is the model itself:(In high resolution)Source: AuthorThe DCF-based target price of Amazon's shares is $4,280, offering 29% upside.Final thoughtsAmazon is one of the companies whose growth has not yet reached its limit and not even entered the plateau phase. In a sense, this is a startup with $73 billion cash.The fact that Amazon remains in the acceleration phase does not mean that its capitalization is constantly undervalued. But in this case, based on the patterns between the company's capitalization and the parameters of its revenue, we can conclude that the company isundervalued.Comparing Amazon to other companies through the prism of expected EPS growth, it must be admitted that the company ismuch cheaperthan the market.DCF model based on average expectations analysts indicate a 30% undervaluation. At the start of the year, a similarmodelindicated a 20% undervaluation.When you look at Amazon's revenue forecast for the next decade, you realize that the company will face growth problems. But in my opinion,it is better to invest in a company facing growth problems than aging problems.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":104,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":361448081,"gmtCreate":1614257913243,"gmtModify":1704769728358,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HIMS\">$Hims & Hers Health Inc.(HIMS)$</a>Hopefully it’ll recover soon ","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HIMS\">$Hims & Hers Health Inc.(HIMS)$</a>Hopefully it’ll recover soon ","text":"$Hims & Hers Health Inc.(HIMS)$Hopefully it’ll recover soon","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/361448081","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":162,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":132009656,"gmtCreate":1622042517175,"gmtModify":1704178445903,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment pls","listText":"Like and comment pls","text":"Like and comment pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/132009656","repostId":"1107926084","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1107926084","pubTimestamp":1622042301,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1107926084?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-26 23:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"June Outlook: Inflation, Jobs, And The Fed Take Center Stage In Month Ahead","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1107926084","media":"benzinga","summary":"A lot’s happening in June, but the most intense focus could be on a single event the afternoon of Ju","content":"<p>A lot’s happening in June, but the most intense focus could be on a single event the afternoon of June 16.</p><p>That’s when the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) wraps up its June meeting and Fed Chairman Jerome Powell addresses reporters. While a Powell press conference is important whenever it happens, this one has more significance than usual because of what the Fed said at its April meeting.</p><p>Minutes from that gathering raised the chance of the Fed beginning to plan some sort of “taper” if the economy keeps galloping along. Remember, the Fed’s been snapping up $120 billion in Treasury bonds and mortgage-backed securities each month to provide liquidity and keep rates low during the pandemic, but has said it will begin “tapering,” or slowing the pace of those purchases, if certain employment parameters are met. Chances of a taper happening in the relatively near future suddenly appeared more likely based on the following words in the April minutes:</p><p>“A number of participants suggested that if the economy continued to make rapid progress toward the Committee’s goals, it might be appropriate at some point in upcoming meetings to begin discussing a plan for adjusting the pace of asset purchases.”</p><p>That statement appeared to surprise some analysts. They hadn’t expected the FOMC to publicly ponder actual tapering until possibly later this year. Those words, along with a string of robust economic data and earnings numbers, might have investors on tenterhooks waiting to hear the Fed’s fresh thinking on June 16. Will it give any hint of how long it’s willing to let things continue rolling full steam ahead? Just how worried are Powell and company about rising prices?</p><p>Any sign that the Fed is ready to taper earlier than expected could cause Treasury yields to rise and potentially put pressure on the stock market.</p><p>As The Fed Turns...</p><p>It’s hard to blame Fed officials for wondering if the economy might be on the verge of overheating. After all, Q1 gross domestic product (GDP) grew more than 6%, the highest in decades. Layoffs appear to be trending much lower, if weekly initial jobless claims are correct, and many companies said during Q1 earnings season that they’re having supply chain issues even while paying more for the raw materials they need. This raises concerns about producer inflation making its way to consumers.</p><p>The final straw might have been April’s consumer price index (CPI), which showed more than 4% year-over-year growth, the highest in a decade. Core month-over-month CPI saw its sharpest rise since April 1982, when President Reagan was serving his first term and Powell was a recent law school graduate.</p><p>Though the Fed didn’t have all of this data in hand when it met in late April, the signs were already pointing toward major economic growth and price pressure, putting the Fed between the proverbial rock and a hard place.</p><p>Powell has emphasized the importance of getting millions back to work, with unemployment still around 6% more than a year after the pandemic began. Earlier this year, the Fed made it very clear it would tolerate inflation above its 2% long-term target until employment got back on track, but this risks the chance of price pressure hurting consumers and companies. Corporate margins look very positive right now coming off huge Q1 earnings growth, but inflation over coming months could change that, perhaps resulting in pressure on stocks.</p><p>There could be more Fed remarks in the next week or two, but then the pre-meeting silent period begins and June 16 looms. Powell is almost certainly going to face questions about those April meeting minutes.</p><p>Tug-Of-War Persists Between Growth And Value</p><p>All this focus on the Fed turns attention to the benchmark 10-year Treasury yield, a major metric for economic growth, inflation, and interest rate anticipation. It rallied from near historic lows of around 0.95% at the start of the year to a late-March high of 1.78% as the economy improved and inflation fears gathered. It then pulled back and hung around near 1.6% for a couple of months, trading at 1.61% as of late May.</p><p>Anywhere above 1.75% might look interesting now, and 2% might spark some fear in the market. The rally in yields earlier this year really helped snuff out the Info Tech rally, since many of those stocks are priced in part based on anticipation of future growth, something higher borrowing costs might compress.</p><p>That helped lead to the current tug-of-war between value sectors like Financials and Energy that tend to do better in a recovering economy where inflation is rising and Growth ones like Tech that outperformed during the shutdowns of 2020. The battle has raged most of the last two months, though there are now signs of at least some investors beginning to bifurcate Tech between the huge, mature companies like <b>Apple</b>AAPL 0.09%and <b>Microsoft</b>MSFT 0.05%and smaller firms more dependent on keeping future growth paths skyrocketing. The AAPLs and MSFTs of the world have often led the broader market higher the last few years, and could be less vulnerable then smaller Tech firms if interest rates do start to rise.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/feb0c06151e4a6b134b2691ef5949530\" tg-width=\"960\" tg-height=\"509\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>FIGURE 1: MAY MALAISE.</b>After a strong start to 2021, the S&P 500 Index (SPX—candlestick) had some struggles in May amid inflation worries. The Nasdaq 100 (NDX—purple line) has had a much more checkered year as some investors favored value over growth sectors, and continued to be weak heading into June. Data Sources: S&P Dow Jones Indices, Nasdaq. Chart source: The thinkorswim® platform. <i>For illustrative purposes only. Past performance does not guarantee future results.</i></p><p>But we may be putting the cart ahead of the horse, so to speak. The April jobs growth number of 266,000 was way, way below Wall Street’s expectations for more than 700,000 and some bullish predictions of a million. That puts focus squarely on the May jobs growth number, due June 4. Another weak jobs reading for May might take some pressure off of the Fed and rates, with “bad news” possibly becoming “good news” for stocks, so to speak.</p><p>Remember that different U.S. states were in different reopening modes in April, which may have affected that number. It’s possible some of the earlier job growth won’t show up until May, or the April number could be revised upward once things become clearer. A lot of what Powell says and does on June 16 will likely reflect the jobs report, along with inflation data like the May 28 personal consumption expenditure (PCE) prices, which the Fed is known to follow closely.</p><p>The May CPI report on June 10 is another key one to watch next month when it comes to inflation. The Fed will have all that material in hand by the time it meets, giving it a clearer perspective.</p><p>Homebuilders, “Stay-At-Home” Stocks Among June Earnings Reports</p><p>That’s a mouthful about the Fed, inflation, jobs, and yields. What about the corporate world?</p><p>As we emerge from a Q1 earnings season where the average S&P 500 company recorded earnings per share growth of nearly 52%, according to Factset, you might think earnings aren’t a big calendar item in June. That’s only partially true. While we won’t see a big crush of earnings reports, there are some key ones to watch, especially in the home building sector where both <b>Lennar</b> and <b>KB Home</b> are expected to report during the month.</p><p>The housing market has been red hot, so a couple of April data points that missed analysts’ expectations (existing home sales and housing starts) might not be too big a deal. Having said that, the economy’s reopening could take peoples’ attention away from home buying and give strength to companies that focus on experiences rather than products. It’s possible some of the strength in housing and home improvement got pulled forward by the pandemic, just as we saw demand for internet conferences and home exercise equipment pulled forward. Keep an eye on what LEN and KBH say about demand when they report.</p><p><b>Zoom Video</b> ,<b> Kroger</b> , <b>Chewy</b> , and <b>Slack</b> are some other companies whose businesses saw a big impact from Covid and release earnings in June. Most of them benefitted from people staying at home, questions remain over how much of their recent growth in sales has been sustainable vs. “demand pulled forward.” Many of their shares have lost ground and investors are eager to hear how they plan to keep the fizz bubbling post-Covid. Meanwhile, Tech earnings are a bit scarce in the month ahead, but <b>Oracle</b> is expected to be on the June release calendar.</p><p>Keeping Watch on Crypto, Volatility</p><p>Like it or not, cryptocurrency could also help determine the market’s direction in June. It seemed like bitcoin set some of the momentum in late May, though that’s not a permanent indicator by any stretch of the imagination. However, when the news flow gets quiet and people start looking for indicators on how to trade, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have been something many investors watch. The question is whether the stock market is starting to divorce itself more from cryptocurrency after huge swings in bitcoin prices recently.</p><p>Volatility is another metric to watch. The <b>Cboe Volatility Index</b>(VIX) hung around near 20 in late May after a month where it seldom went below 18 or above 25. VIX typically spends a long time trading in specific ranges, so the next thing to check is whether the current range holds or if it steps up or down. A move higher in volatility, especially any prolonged stays above 25, would presumably reflect mounting investor uncertainty and worries about what’s ahead. If VIX falls below 20 and stays there awhile, it could point to a quiet summer.</p><p>We haven’t mentioned Covid so far except in passing. That’s a good thing, because it means it’s not front and center the way it once was. As of late May, the U.S. seemed to be on very good footing thanks to vaccinations, with case counts falling to the lowest daily levels in nearly a year. No one knows if this will continue, but we can be hopeful.</p><p>We can also hope that the current devastating impact of Covid in parts of Asia slows down in the month ahead. Right now, it appears that the situation there might be putting a bit of pressure on the blazing commodity markets amid worries about overseas demand for products like crude and copper. China also tried to clamp down on commodity prices in late May, saying it will move to reduce speculation.</p><p>We started with inflation, so might as well end with it. The commodities market is another aspect of pricing pressure, especially for companies in the Materials, Information Technology, Transport, and Industrial sectors.

While a Powell press conference is important whenever it happens, this one has more significance than usual because of what the Fed said at its April meeting.Minutes from that gathering raised the chance of the Fed beginning to plan some sort of “taper” if the economy keeps galloping along. Remember, the Fed’s been snapping up $120 billion in Treasury bonds and mortgage-backed securities each month to provide liquidity and keep rates low during the pandemic, but has said it will begin “tapering,” or slowing the pace of those purchases, if certain employment parameters are met. Chances of a taper happening in the relatively near future suddenly appeared more likely based on the following words in the April minutes:“A number of participants suggested that if the economy continued to make rapid progress toward the Committee’s goals, it might be appropriate at some point in upcoming meetings to begin discussing a plan for adjusting the pace of asset purchases.”That statement appeared to surprise some analysts. They hadn’t expected the FOMC to publicly ponder actual tapering until possibly later this year. Those words, along with a string of robust economic data and earnings numbers, might have investors on tenterhooks waiting to hear the Fed’s fresh thinking on June 16. Will it give any hint of how long it’s willing to let things continue rolling full steam ahead? Just how worried are Powell and company about rising prices?Any sign that the Fed is ready to taper earlier than expected could cause Treasury yields to rise and potentially put pressure on the stock market.As The Fed Turns...It’s hard to blame Fed officials for wondering if the economy might be on the verge of overheating. After all, Q1 gross domestic product (GDP) grew more than 6%, the highest in decades. Layoffs appear to be trending much lower, if weekly initial jobless claims are correct, and many companies said during Q1 earnings season that they’re having supply chain issues even while paying more for the raw materials they need. This raises concerns about producer inflation making its way to consumers.The final straw might have been April’s consumer price index (CPI), which showed more than 4% year-over-year growth, the highest in a decade. Core month-over-month CPI saw its sharpest rise since April 1982, when President Reagan was serving his first term and Powell was a recent law school graduate.Though the Fed didn’t have all of this data in hand when it met in late April, the signs were already pointing toward major economic growth and price pressure, putting the Fed between the proverbial rock and a hard place.Powell has emphasized the importance of getting millions back to work, with unemployment still around 6% more than a year after the pandemic began. Earlier this year, the Fed made it very clear it would tolerate inflation above its 2% long-term target until employment got back on track, but this risks the chance of price pressure hurting consumers and companies. Corporate margins look very positive right now coming off huge Q1 earnings growth, but inflation over coming months could change that, perhaps resulting in pressure on stocks.There could be more Fed remarks in the next week or two, but then the pre-meeting silent period begins and June 16 looms. Powell is almost certainly going to face questions about those April meeting minutes.Tug-Of-War Persists Between Growth And ValueAll this focus on the Fed turns attention to the benchmark 10-year Treasury yield, a major metric for economic growth, inflation, and interest rate anticipation. It rallied from near historic lows of around 0.95% at the start of the year to a late-March high of 1.78% as the economy improved and inflation fears gathered. It then pulled back and hung around near 1.6% for a couple of months, trading at 1.61% as of late May.Anywhere above 1.75% might look interesting now, and 2% might spark some fear in the market. The rally in yields earlier this year really helped snuff out the Info Tech rally, since many of those stocks are priced in part based on anticipation of future growth, something higher borrowing costs might compress.That helped lead to the current tug-of-war between value sectors like Financials and Energy that tend to do better in a recovering economy where inflation is rising and Growth ones like Tech that outperformed during the shutdowns of 2020. The battle has raged most of the last two months, though there are now signs of at least some investors beginning to bifurcate Tech between the huge, mature companies like AppleAAPL 0.09%and MicrosoftMSFT 0.05%and smaller firms more dependent on keeping future growth paths skyrocketing. The AAPLs and MSFTs of the world have often led the broader market higher the last few years, and could be less vulnerable then smaller Tech firms if interest rates do start to rise.FIGURE 1: MAY MALAISE.After a strong start to 2021, the S&P 500 Index (SPX—candlestick) had some struggles in May amid inflation worries. The Nasdaq 100 (NDX—purple line) has had a much more checkered year as some investors favored value over growth sectors, and continued to be weak heading into June. Data Sources: S&P Dow Jones Indices, Nasdaq. Chart source: The thinkorswim® platform. For illustrative purposes only. Past performance does not guarantee future results.But we may be putting the cart ahead of the horse, so to speak. The April jobs growth number of 266,000 was way, way below Wall Street’s expectations for more than 700,000 and some bullish predictions of a million. That puts focus squarely on the May jobs growth number, due June 4. Another weak jobs reading for May might take some pressure off of the Fed and rates, with “bad news” possibly becoming “good news” for stocks, so to speak.Remember that different U.S. states were in different reopening modes in April, which may have affected that number. It’s possible some of the earlier job growth won’t show up until May, or the April number could be revised upward once things become clearer. A lot of what Powell says and does on June 16 will likely reflect the jobs report, along with inflation data like the May 28 personal consumption expenditure (PCE) prices, which the Fed is known to follow closely.The May CPI report on June 10 is another key one to watch next month when it comes to inflation. The Fed will have all that material in hand by the time it meets, giving it a clearer perspective.Homebuilders, “Stay-At-Home” Stocks Among June Earnings ReportsThat’s a mouthful about the Fed, inflation, jobs, and yields. What about the corporate world?As we emerge from a Q1 earnings season where the average S&P 500 company recorded earnings per share growth of nearly 52%, according to Factset, you might think earnings aren’t a big calendar item in June. That’s only partially true. While we won’t see a big crush of earnings reports, there are some key ones to watch, especially in the home building sector where both Lennar and KB Home are expected to report during the month.The housing market has been red hot, so a couple of April data points that missed analysts’ expectations (existing home sales and housing starts) might not be too big a deal. Having said that, the economy’s reopening could take peoples’ attention away from home buying and give strength to companies that focus on experiences rather than products. It’s possible some of the strength in housing and home improvement got pulled forward by the pandemic, just as we saw demand for internet conferences and home exercise equipment pulled forward. Keep an eye on what LEN and KBH say about demand when they report.Zoom Video , Kroger , Chewy , and Slack are some other companies whose businesses saw a big impact from Covid and release earnings in June. Most of them benefitted from people staying at home, questions remain over how much of their recent growth in sales has been sustainable vs. “demand pulled forward.” Many of their shares have lost ground and investors are eager to hear how they plan to keep the fizz bubbling post-Covid. Meanwhile, Tech earnings are a bit scarce in the month ahead, but Oracle is expected to be on the June release calendar.Keeping Watch on Crypto, VolatilityLike it or not, cryptocurrency could also help determine the market’s direction in June. It seemed like bitcoin set some of the momentum in late May, though that’s not a permanent indicator by any stretch of the imagination. However, when the news flow gets quiet and people start looking for indicators on how to trade, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have been something many investors watch. The question is whether the stock market is starting to divorce itself more from cryptocurrency after huge swings in bitcoin prices recently.Volatility is another metric to watch. The Cboe Volatility Index(VIX) hung around near 20 in late May after a month where it seldom went below 18 or above 25. VIX typically spends a long time trading in specific ranges, so the next thing to check is whether the current range holds or if it steps up or down. A move higher in volatility, especially any prolonged stays above 25, would presumably reflect mounting investor uncertainty and worries about what’s ahead. If VIX falls below 20 and stays there awhile, it could point to a quiet summer.We haven’t mentioned Covid so far except in passing. That’s a good thing, because it means it’s not front and center the way it once was. As of late May, the U.S. seemed to be on very good footing thanks to vaccinations, with case counts falling to the lowest daily levels in nearly a year. No one knows if this will continue, but we can be hopeful.We can also hope that the current devastating impact of Covid in parts of Asia slows down in the month ahead. Right now, it appears that the situation there might be putting a bit of pressure on the blazing commodity markets amid worries about overseas demand for products like crude and copper. China also tried to clamp down on commodity prices in late May, saying it will move to reduce speculation.We started with inflation, so might as well end with it. The commodities market is another aspect of pricing pressure, especially for companies in the Materials, Information Technology, Transport, and Industrial sectors. Costs rose sharply so far this year for many of the core products they use, but if commodities continue to level off or even fall in June, that could relieve some of the pressure on companies and the Fed. Whether that happens could be determined by progress against the pandemic the next few weeks in places like India, Japan, and South Korea.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":146,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3579698948878933","authorId":"3579698948878933","name":"Charmmy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c391903e07c32df1c580c1844f0fd9f7","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3579698948878933","authorIdStr":"3579698948878933"},"content":"help comment thanks","text":"help comment thanks","html":"help comment thanks"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":165618131,"gmtCreate":1624124622023,"gmtModify":1703829144304,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":" Nice ","listText":" Nice ","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/165618131","repostId":"1113942445","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":356,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":182433243,"gmtCreate":1623596200982,"gmtModify":1704206779674,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Solid","listText":"Solid","text":"Solid","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/182433243","repostId":"2142204074","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2142204074","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1623441637,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2142204074?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-12 04:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P ekes out gains to close languid week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2142204074","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK, June 11 - The S&P 500 closed nominally higher at the end of a torpid week marked with few market-moving catalysts and persistent concerns over whether current inflation spikes could linger and cause the U.S. Federal Reserve to tighten its dovish policy sooner than expected.Economically sensitive smallcaps and transports notched solid gains, outperforming the broader market.For the week, the S&P and the Nasdaq advanced from last Friday's close, while the Dow posted a weekly loss.But th","content":"<p>NEW YORK, June 11 (Reuters) - The S&P 500 closed nominally higher at the end of a torpid week marked with few market-moving catalysts and persistent concerns over whether current inflation spikes could linger and cause the U.S. Federal Reserve to tighten its dovish policy sooner than expected.</p>\n<p>Economically sensitive smallcaps and transports notched solid gains, outperforming the broader market.</p>\n<p>For the week, the S&P and the Nasdaq advanced from last Friday's close, while the Dow posted a weekly loss.</p>\n<p>But the indexes have been range-bound, with few catalysts to move investor sentiment.

powerful and priciest version of the company’s Model S. Priced at $149,990, it was to feature a range of 520 miles, thanks to its innovative 4680 battery cells, 1,100 horsepower and the ability to speed from 0 to 60 mph in less than two seconds.</p>\n<p>Instead, the company has begun delivering a new Model S Plaid that has only a 390-mile range and 1,020 horsepower, though it still sprints to from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just two seconds.</p>\n<p>As a way to “sugar coat” its flip flop, Tesla said the Model S Plaid is just as fast as the Model S Plaid Plus and $20,000 cheaper. Humm.</p>\n<p>This “bait and switch” has some Tesla fans worried, since they had deposits on the Model S Plaid Plus and wanted the innovative 4680 battery cells that Tesla had been touting as the key to longer range and more power. Essentially, the 4680 battery cells were the latest great Tesla development, since they were the first batteries to also be a structural component that supposedly allowed Tesla to lower the weight of its vehicles.</p>\n<p>Both the company’s Austin and Berlin manufacturing plants now under construction are supposed to also be making the 4680 batteries for new Tesla vehicles. If there is a problem with the engineering associated with utilizing the 4680 batteries or making them a structural component, then Tesla has grossly miscalculated, which is now worrying investors.</p>\n<p>Clearly something happened to delay the 4680 batteries that were supposed to provide Tesla with a competitive and engineering edge. For Tesla’s sake, I hope they figure out the problems associated with their much hyped 4680 battery cells, otherwise concerns about its two new manufacturing plants will emerge, as well as the stock losing more of its “mojo.”</p>\n<p>As someone who owns more than a few high-performance vehicles, I can tell you that the engineering geeks I know do<i>not</i>want to get a new Model S Plaid instead of a Model S Plaid Plus and will likely ask for their deposits back.</p>\n<p>What Tesla did is like Ferrari or Porsche telling its customers that one of their much-hyped new performance models is now not being sold because the base model was just as good! Car fanatics, like myself, like the latest and greatest engineering tidbits, so we would rather cancel our orders versus settle for a base model.</p>\n<p>The good news for Tesla is that its China sales in May resurged to 21,936, up sharply from 11,671 in April. The company’s sales tend to spike at the end of each quarter. For example, Tesla sold 35,478 vehicles in China in March, which was the strongest month ever in China.</p>\n<p>This is raising expectations for very strong China sales in June, especially now that the Model Y is being manufactured in Shanghai. Interestingly, since most Chinese Teslas are now made with iron phosphate batteries, these vehicles have lower range than its lithium cobalt vehicles, but its iron phosphate vehicles are cheaper and now increasingly being exported to Europe.</p>\n<p>However, I’m convinced another electric vehicle (EV) company will eventually displace Tesla as the biggest manufacturer of EVs in China.</p>\n<p><b>Taking Advantage of the EV Revolution’s Profit Potential</b></p>\n<p>I’m talking about <b>Nio, Inc.</b>(NYSE:<b>NIO</b>). The reality is that this company is on the verge of dominating the EV market in China and Hong Kong. It’s why I put NIO on my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio back in February.</p>\n<p>The company boasts that it is the “next-generation car company,” as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles that utilize the latest technologies in connectivity, autonomous driving and artificial intelligence (AI). NIO currently offers an electric seven-seater SUV (ES8) and a five-seater electric SUV (ES6) and recently introduced an attractive electric sedan (ET7). Its vehicles utilize NOMI, an in-vehicle artificial intelligence assistant.</p>\n<p>The company is also partnering with cutting-edge chip companies like<b>NVIDIA Corporation</b>(NASDAQ:<b>NVDA</b>), another one of my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio stocks. NIO plans to use the NVIDIA DRIVE Orin system-on-a-chip for its electric vehicles that will provide autonomous driving capabilities. The NVIDIA DRIVE Orin-powered supercomputer, which is being called Adam, will be launched in the ET7 sedan in China in 2022. Announcements like this are very positive, so NIO has been stealing some of Tesla’s thunder lately.</p>\n<p>Now, it’s important to note that NIO was bailed out by the Chinese government. Last year, the Chinese government injected $1 billion and now has a 24% ownership in the company. The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.</p>\n<p>With the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.</p>\n<p>That means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.</p>\n<p>Shares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%. First, NIO revealed that the global chip shortage is starting to take a toll on its business. NIO only delivered 6,711 vehicles in May, or a 5.5% decline from April’s deliveries. Company management noted that deliveries were “adversely impacted for several days due to the volatility of semiconductor supply and certain logistical adjustments.”</p>\n<p>Interestingly, despite the month-to-month dip, NIO’s deliveries were still up 95.3% year-over-year. Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.</p>\n<p>In other words, NIO represents the<b>crème de la crème</b>of EV stocks right now.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Why I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nWhy I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-23 15:33 GMT+8 <a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.\n\nSuper fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc.(NASDAQ:TSLA) model received some disappointing news a week ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NIO":"蔚来","TSLA":"特斯拉"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2021/06/why-i-believe-nio-will-beat-out-tesla/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1145825451","content_text":"The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.\n\nSuper fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc.(NASDAQ:TSLA) model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.\nSource: nrqemi / Shutterstock.com\nMusk wrote there was… “No need, as Plaid is just so good.”\nThe Model S Plaid Plus was supposed to be the fastest, most powerful and priciest version of the company’s Model S.

Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.\nIn other words, NIO represents thecrème de la crèmeof EV stocks right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":292,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":167307974,"gmtCreate":1624245495298,"gmtModify":1703831451384,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/167307974","repostId":"1134946846","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1134946846","pubTimestamp":1624244425,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1134946846?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-21 11:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Stock market's most popular trade faces 'perfect storm'","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1134946846","media":"FoxBusiness","summary":"Wall Street’s favorite trade of the year is facing a \"perfect storm\" as theFederal Reserveprepares t","content":"<p>Wall Street’s favorite trade of the year is facing a \"perfect storm\" as theFederal Reserveprepares to exit the emergency measures put in place during the pandemic, according to Bank of America.</p>\n<p>The Fed’s decision to end the easy money era of the pandemic sent shockwaves through the market and put the Dow Jones Industrial Average on track for its worst week since January.</p>\n<p>Cyclical stocks on Thursday, the day after the announcement, suffered their worst day in over a year when compared to defensive stocks as investors feared the central bank’s tapering could derail the economy.

Facebook defines a MAU as a registered and logged-in user who visited Facebook through its website or a mobile device, or used its Messenger app sometime during the 30 days of the measurement period.7Facebookderives the majority of its revenue through selling advertising space on its social media sites and apps to marketers. The bigger its user base, the more attractive its platform is to advertisers. Facebook's share of total digital ad spending in the U.S. in 2020 was 25.2%, second only to Alphabet Inc.'s (GOOGL) Google.8</p><p>Facebook's user base is massive. At nearly 2.8 billion MAUs at the end of FY 2020, its user base is equivalent to more than a third of the world's total population.9If growth is decelerating, which it has been, it's not difficult to see why. In FY 2016, Facebook's MAUs rose 16.8% to finish the year with just under 1.9 billion. Growth decelerated every year until reaching a pace of 7.6% in FY 2019. Last year, as millions of people were stuck at home amid the pandemic and Internet traffic surged, annual growth in MAUs accelerated to a pace of 12.0%. However, analysts are expecting growth to begin slowing again in FY 2021. They forecast that MAUs will rise 8.9% year over year (YOY) in Q1 FY 2021, which would be the slowest pace since the final quarter of FY 2019. For full-year FY 2021, growth in MAUs is expected to slow to a pace of 5.6%, which would be the slowest in at least six years. But that would bring Facebook's total MAUs to just under 3.0 billion by the end of the year.</p>","source":"lsy1606203311635","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>Facebook Q1 2021 Earnings Report Preview: What to Look for</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\">\nFacebook Q1 2021 Earnings Report Preview: What to Look for\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-28 10:45 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.investopedia.com/facebook-q1-2021-earnings-report-preview-5180628><strong>investopedia</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>KEY TAKEAWAYSAnalysts estimate EPS of $2.32 vs. $1.71 in Q1 FY 2020.Monthly active users are expected to rise YOY.Revenue growth is expected to accelerate YOY amid ongoing shift to online commerce....</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.investopedia.com/facebook-q1-2021-earnings-report-preview-5180628\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://www.investopedia.com/facebook-q1-2021-earnings-report-preview-5180628","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1193315249","content_text":"KEY TAKEAWAYSAnalysts estimate EPS of $2.32 vs. $1.71 in Q1 FY 2020.Monthly active users are expected to rise YOY.Revenue growth is expected to accelerate YOY amid ongoing shift to online commerce.Facebook Inc.

Revenue for the year is expected to rise 25.3%, which would be the fastest pace since FY 2019.4.Facebook Key StatsEstimate for Q1 2021 (FY)Q1 2020 (FY)Q1 2019 (FY)Earnings Per Share ($)2.321.710.85Revenue ($B)23.617.715.1Monthly Active Users (B)2.82.62.4Source:Visible AlphaThe Key MetricAs mentioned above, investors will also be focused on Facebook's monthly active users (MAUs), a key metric providing a measure of the size of the company's global active user base. Facebook defines a MAU as a registered and logged-in user who visited Facebook through its website or a mobile device, or used its Messenger app sometime during the 30 days of the measurement period.7Facebookderives the majority of its revenue through selling advertising space on its social media sites and apps to marketers. The bigger its user base, the more attractive its platform is to advertisers. Facebook's share of total digital ad spending in the U.S. in 2020 was 25.2%, second only to Alphabet Inc.'s (GOOGL) Google.8Facebook's user base is massive. At nearly 2.8 billion MAUs at the end of FY 2020, its user base is equivalent to more than a third of the world's total population.9If growth is decelerating, which it has been, it's not difficult to see why. In FY 2016, Facebook's MAUs rose 16.8% to finish the year with just under 1.9 billion. Growth decelerated every year until reaching a pace of 7.6% in FY 2019. Last year, as millions of people were stuck at home amid the pandemic and Internet traffic surged, annual growth in MAUs accelerated to a pace of 12.0%. However, analysts are expecting growth to begin slowing again in FY 2021. They forecast that MAUs will rise 8.9% year over year (YOY) in Q1 FY 2021, which would be the slowest pace since the final quarter of FY 2019. For full-year FY 2021, growth in MAUs is expected to slow to a pace of 5.6%, which would be the slowest in at least six years. But that would bring Facebook's total MAUs to just under 3.0 billion by the end of the year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":63,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":166806290,"gmtCreate":1623999794010,"gmtModify":1703826186010,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment and like","listText":"Comment and like","text":"Comment and like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/166806290","repostId":"1167089681","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":405,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":112792902,"gmtCreate":1622918589106,"gmtModify":1704193242864,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/112792902","repostId":"1158897173","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158897173","pubTimestamp":1622813283,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1158897173?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-04 21:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Should You Buy Apple Stock Before WWDC?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158897173","media":"TheStreet","summary":"On June 7, Apple will host its annual WWDC event – as a virtual conference, just like 2020.

I was a skeptic for a long time but that didn’t stop me from trading it bullishly. I could not see how it fit in the migration from traditional to streaming models.</p>\n<p>Regardless as to how, management proved me wrong. The fundamental metrics now are undeniable bullish.</p>\n<p>In the last four years, they quadrupled revenues. They now have more than $100 million of positive net income after years of losses. That point is important because the company is not young and ran red too long.</p>\n<p>But finally the media delivery environment swung their way. Last year, the swarm demand for streaming from the pandemic made for a perfect storm.</p>\n<p>From here, hopefully they can build on the momentum and follow the digitization trend deep. This is a big world so the potential is borderless to a degree. I still don’t quite get why I would need a Roku, so I am not their target audience. In our household we “cut the cord” a while back. But we use our phones and tablets to consume our media without Roku.</p>\n<p><b>ROKU Stock Is in Better Shape Now</b></p>\n<p>Recognizing the improvements is important because the long-term thesis changed for me. This is a streaming stock with no weak asterisks anymore.</p>\n<p>Being profitable does not mean that ROKU stock is now cheap. Experts could point to price-to-earnings ratio to call it expensive. They’d be wrong because for an aggressively growing company P/E is a bad metric. Companies cannot deliver impressive growth on a budget.</p>\n<p>The better gauge to use is the price-to-sales, and at 22 it is reasonable. This is in line with <b>Tesla</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>TSLA</u></b>) and cheaper than <b>Zoom</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>ZM</u></b>) to use two other growers. ROKU P/S is triple <b>Netflix</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>NFLX</u></b>) and quadruple that of <b>Disney</b> (NYSE:<b><u>DIS</u></b>). Nevertheless it is not a flagrant reason to sell it. The amount of hope that its investors have in it now is high. But it is not in the clouds so high to drive a crash.</p>\n<p>ROKU stock rallied 740% from the pandemic crash. Then it corrected 44% and now is somewhere in the middle. The altitude is a bit alarming still 90% above last summer’s breakout. This concern is more serious since the markets are also near all-time highs.</p>\n<p>Last week Federal Reserve “taper” fears resurfaced and could be a drag on the all equities. Regardless of how good this story is, it will need the markets to remain strong.</p>\n<p><b>There Is Risk Below</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbf9b67c067cf68328fee1f460de2f1e\" tg-width=\"1543\" tg-height=\"826\"><span>Source: Charts by TradingView</span></p>\n<p>If the overall malaise continues, ROKU could fall 30% from here and not change a thing. First, there would be a strong effort to hold the $280 zone. If that fails it would then trigger the rest of the dip. There is a way to profit from this potential now using options. This is also a way to get bullish the stock but leave room for error.</p>\n<p>An investor can sell the January 2022 ROKU $220 put to be bullish the stock. This trade would not even need a rally to win. In fact, the stock can fall almost 40% and they can still break even. If the stock falls below $220 then they could own the shares there.</p>\n<p>Big moves in stocks usually come from dislocations between reality and expectations. I don’t think there is such a scenario here. It’s a momentum stock but not teetering on disaster.

I was a skeptic for a long time but that didn’t stop me from trading it bullishly. I could not see how it fit in the migration from traditional to streaming models.\nRegardless as to how, management proved me wrong. The fundamental metrics now are undeniable bullish.\nIn the last four years, they quadrupled revenues. They now have more than $100 million of positive net income after years of losses. That point is important because the company is not young and ran red too long.\nBut finally the media delivery environment swung their way. Last year, the swarm demand for streaming from the pandemic made for a perfect storm.\nFrom here, hopefully they can build on the momentum and follow the digitization trend deep. This is a big world so the potential is borderless to a degree. I still don’t quite get why I would need a Roku, so I am not their target audience. In our household we “cut the cord” a while back. But we use our phones and tablets to consume our media without Roku.\nROKU Stock Is in Better Shape Now\nRecognizing the improvements is important because the long-term thesis changed for me. This is a streaming stock with no weak asterisks anymore.\nBeing profitable does not mean that ROKU stock is now cheap. Experts could point to price-to-earnings ratio to call it expensive. They’d be wrong because for an aggressively growing company P/E is a bad metric. Companies cannot deliver impressive growth on a budget.\nThe better gauge to use is the price-to-sales, and at 22 it is reasonable. This is in line with Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) and cheaper than Zoom (NASDAQ:ZM) to use two other growers. ROKU P/S is triple Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) and quadruple that of Disney (NYSE:DIS). Nevertheless it is not a flagrant reason to sell it. The amount of hope that its investors have in it now is high. But it is not in the clouds so high to drive a crash.\nROKU stock rallied 740% from the pandemic crash. Then it corrected 44% and now is somewhere in the middle. The altitude is a bit alarming still 90% above last summer’s breakout. This concern is more serious since the markets are also near all-time highs.\nLast week Federal Reserve “taper” fears resurfaced and could be a drag on the all equities. Regardless of how good this story is, it will need the markets to remain strong.\nThere Is Risk Below\nSource: Charts by TradingView\nIf the overall malaise continues, ROKU could fall 30% from here and not change a thing. First, there would be a strong effort to hold the $280 zone. If that fails it would then trigger the rest of the dip. There is a way to profit from this potential now using options. This is also a way to get bullish the stock but leave room for error.\nAn investor can sell the January 2022 ROKU $220 put to be bullish the stock. This trade would not even need a rally to win. In fact, the stock can fall almost 40% and they can still break even. If the stock falls below $220 then they could own the shares there.\nBig moves in stocks usually come from dislocations between reality and expectations. I don’t think there is such a scenario here. It’s a momentum stock but not teetering on disaster. I would not go as far as calling it a bargain but value became less of a threat.\nEarlier I admitted that I was ignorant on one front but did not commit the mistake of shorting it. Back then I knew that my bearish bias was a mere opinion with low conviction. In fact I wrote about upside opportunities when I saw some coming.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":176,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":102042605,"gmtCreate":1620170978907,"gmtModify":1704339548275,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment and like pls","listText":"Comment and like pls","text":"Comment and like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/102042605","repostId":"1107772617","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1107772617","pubTimestamp":1620139709,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1107772617?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-04 22:48","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Opinion: Why you should worry about the flood of new cash into U.S. stock funds","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1107772617","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"With investments, popular is not better.U.S. stock funds now are riding a river of new cash from inv","content":"<blockquote><b>With investments, popular is not better.</b></blockquote><p>U.S. stock funds now are riding a river of new cash from investors — and that is not a bullish sign.</p><p>Many investors might see this differently — that a huge influx of cash is positive.

Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., the chair of the Senate Judiciary subcommittee on antitrust at a hearing Wednesday.The hearing brought together representatives from Apple with Google and several of their most outspoken critics, includingMatch Group, which owns dating site Tinder; Tile, which makes devices that help users find lost objects and faces new competition fromApple’s AirTag technology; and streaming music serviceSpotify.The hearing comes as lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are working on updates to the antitrust laws that could better account for the power a few tech giants hold over many digital markets. That includes the ability of platforms like Apple and Google to manage the main distribution platform for apps while increasingly hawking their own competitors.Throughout the hearing, the app makers expressed fear over how easily either company could undercut their businesses by making small changes to their app store rules. They also complained of high fees for in-app purchases and unclear enforcement of standards.Allegations of threatsMultiple executives accused Apple and Google of threatening their businesses.Sine said Google called Match Group on Tuesday night after his testimony became public to ask why his testimony differed from the company’s comments in their latest earnings call.On the earnings call, Match executives had said they believed they were having productive conversations about Google’s 30% in-app payment fee through its Google Play store. But in testimony, Match complained that Google had made “false pretenses of an open platform” and complained about its “monopoly power.”Google Senior Director of Public Policy and Government Relations Wilson White said it sounded like employees working in Google’s business development team reached out to ask an “honest question.” Wilson said he didn’t view it as a threat “and we would never threaten our partners” because Google needs app developers to use its app store in order for it to be successful.Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., said the call was “potentially actionable.”Klobuchar said she planned to look into the matter further.Spotify Chief Legal Officer Horacio Gutierrez said he could think of “at least four clear examples of threats and retaliation” from Apple after Spotify decided to speak out about alleged anticompetitive behavior and Apple’s fees for developers on digital products purchased through its platform. That included threats of removing Spotify’s app, refusing to promote it, or waiting for months for minor app updates to be approved, he claimed.“They’ve basically thrown the book at us in order to make it hard for us to continue to sustain our decision to speak up,” he said.Fees and rival productsMany app makers have complained about the fees gatekeepers charge for in-app purchases for digital services.Gutierrez complained of what he called Apple’s “gag order” over how it can communicate with its own users about how to upgrade to its paid version.For instance, Spotify allows customers to upgrade only outside of its iOS app in order to avoid Apple’s 15% to 30% commission fee on digital services purchased through its platform. But because Spotify doesn’t sell the paid service through its iOS app, Apple also doesn’t let the app maker talk about upgrades with customers through the app -- instead, users have to upgrade through a web browser on a PC or another method.At the same time, Apple operates a competing service, Apple Music, which has no such restrictions. Gutierrez claimed this gives Apple’s version an unfair advantage.Representatives from Apple and Google both told lawmakers that their fees for developers are meant to cover the costs that go into distributing apps through their platforms and securing them appropriately. Apple Chief Compliance Officer Kyle Andeer compared the services offered on the App Store today to the cumbersome and expensive process app makers had to pursue to distribute their apps before the App Store existed.White cast the group as a set of “small but vocal” voices of “primarily large companies.” He said he worried that in trying to satisfy their complaints, “we damage the very foundation that has allowed the Android open source ecosystem to work so well for a much larger set of small and medium-sized businesses.”In addition to complaints about fees, developers worried that Apple’s own rival products incentivized it to make unfavorable decisions toward them.For example, Tile General Counsel Kirsten Daru said the company had asked Apple for permission to use ultra-wideband (UWB) technology on iPhones to make its item-tracking technology more precise than it can be using only Bluetooth. She said Apple had refused the request, then reserved the technology for its own competitiveAirTags, which it announced on Tuesday.While Apple is rolling out a way for third-party developers to build on the more precise location data, Daru said that in other to access that, “we have to give Apple unprecedented control over our business and directed customers to the Find My app to find their lost items.”Andeer argued AirTags is a separate product from Tile, which currently has majority of the market share for the space, and that opening tools to more third-party developers will encourage competition.Unclear standardsApp makers also complained that Apple’s enforcement of its app store rules can appear arbitrary and delay the launch of key features. Apple may tell developers which rule they’ve violated, but not exactly how or what to do to fix it, Sine said.He said Tinder had tried to submit a version of its app with a feature aimed at protecting its LGBTQ+ users by notifying them when they were in a country where they could be at risk of exposing their sexuality or gender identity. Sine said that it took two months and a conversation between top executives of Match Group’s ownerIACand Apple to sort out the issue.An exchange between subcommittee Ranking Member Mike Lee, R-Utah, and Andeer revealed how complex Apple’s App Store rules can be.Lee asked Andeer to differentiate between why a paid service through Tinder might incur a commission while one for Uber would not. Andeer explained an Uber customer is paying for a non-digital service — a car to show up to their house — while they don’t expect the same return from Tinder, saying that would be a different service, in what appeared to be a insinuation of sex work.The app makers emphasized their reliance on the app stores because of their unprecedented access to consumers. But, they argued, it’s not the symbiotic relationship that Apple and Google like to paint.“We are not successful because of what Apple has done, we have been successful despite Apple’s interference,” Gutierrez said. “And we would have been much more successful but for their anticompetitive behavior.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":131,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":383648696,"gmtCreate":1612877115315,"gmtModify":1704875286146,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HIMS\">$Hims & Hers Health Inc.(HIMS)$</a>To the moon","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HIMS\">$Hims & Hers Health Inc.(HIMS)$</a>To the moon","text":"$Hims & Hers Health Inc.(HIMS)$To the moon","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/383648696","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":172,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":167305139,"gmtCreate":1624245423821,"gmtModify":1703831448786,"author":{"id":"3573824146229547","authorId":"3573824146229547","name":"Hoxyn","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69c90aca320bde7e33f469150d40df06","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3573824146229547","authorIdStr":"3573824146229547"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/167305139","repostId":"1154249454","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154249454","pubTimestamp":1624230573,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1154249454?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-21 07:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nike, FedEx, Johnson & Johnson, Darden, and Other Stocks for Investors to Watch This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154249454","media":"barrons","summary":"A handful of notable companies will release their latest results toward the end of this week.Nike,FedEx,andDarden Restaurantswill report on Thursday, followed by CarMax and Paychex on Friday.

The e-commerce platform initially went public in December at $20 per share before surging to an all-time high of $32 in February due to a momentum-driven rally. That said, shares have steadily plunged ever since, hitting an all-time low of just $7 in June, but are now recovering swiftly after increased interest from the retail trading sector. Here, the stock is favored due to its high volatility, short interest, and enormous upside potential.</p>\n<p>In this context, I believe that the high short interest has increasingly pushed shares below fair value and that patient investors could soon see $20 or more again as the company is working through logistic challenges and will soon return to economies of scale. In this regard, the e-commerce platform has a unique value proposition and is well-positioned to gain market share in a $6 trillion e-commerce industry.</p>\n<p><b>The Digital Dollar Tree</b></p>\n<p>Wish has been criticized heavily as an e-commerce platform, and I would almost argue that its image of being a third-party 'dropshipping' site for Chinese merchants has kept investors away from the stock so far. However, this may only be partially true. Essentially, Wish has inverted Amazon's(NASDAQ:AMZN)business model through low-priced (low-quality) products and sluggish delivery times that may lead to week-long delivery times.

The e-commerce platform initially went public in December at $20 per share before surging to an all-time high of $32 in February due to a momentum-driven rally. That said, shares have steadily plunged ever since, hitting an all-time low of just $7 in June, but are now recovering swiftly after increased interest from the retail trading sector. Here, the stock is favored due to its high volatility, short interest, and enormous upside potential.\nIn this context, I believe that the high short interest has increasingly pushed shares below fair value and that patient investors could soon see $20 or more again as the company is working through logistic challenges and will soon return to economies of scale. In this regard, the e-commerce platform has a unique value proposition and is well-positioned to gain market share in a $6 trillion e-commerce industry.\nThe Digital Dollar Tree\nWish has been criticized heavily as an e-commerce platform, and I would almost argue that its image of being a third-party 'dropshipping' site for Chinese merchants has kept investors away from the stock so far. However, this may only be partially true. Essentially, Wish has inverted Amazon's(NASDAQ:AMZN)business model through low-priced (low-quality) products and sluggish delivery times that may lead to week-long delivery times. This is because Wish does not handle shipping itself, which is why it can offer these ultra-low prices of offering a hoodie for $2 plus $2 shipping.\nFrankly, Wish is still dependent on Chinese merchants, accounting for most of its product catalogs. This is unsurprising, considering that most goods are produced in China as the production costs are among the lowest in the world. Most of the goods being sold on Amazon or eBay(NASDAQ:EBAY)were also produced in China, although they earn a higher perception due to one-day delivery shipping programs or higher prices.\n\nNow, I view Wish as the digital dollar tree, where online shoppers discover items that they want, not need. In the process, customers have more patience for products and are willing to wait longer for them to arrive. Wish is working towards addressing both of these issues (quality and merchant diversification) as its platform is gaining popularity. Here, it has been investing in logistics to offer quicker delivery, demonstrated by a 275% YoY increase in logistics revenue. Since these revenues provide low margins, its overall gross margins have decreased in accordance. However, once it achieves economies of scale in the segment, margin growth should reverse and trail back towards 70%.\nIt is also addressing the second issue by continuously growing its international merchant base. Here, U.S. merchants increased by over 400% YoY, and a similar trend is to be seen in other countries. Moreover, it is growing Wish Local, a service connecting local businesses to the platform, accounting for 7% of all Wish orders. Wish local is mostly (or exclusively) available in the United States and thus increasingly mixes with other products on the website.\nSource: Sensor Tower\nI also like Wish's strategy to engage and retain users by utilizing an AI matching system that optimizes platform growth, user experience, and merchant return on investment.
