have excellent long-term outlooks, but one is unquestionably the better buy.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>A stock market sell-off in 2022 has tanked the share prices of some of the world's most valuable companies, creating an excellent time to invest in growth stocks like <b>Amazon</b> (AMZN) and <b>Apple</b> (AAPL). These companies are known as leaders of their respective industries, yet have watched their stocks suffer double-digit declines over the past year.</p><p>Regardless, Amazon and Apple continue to have great long-term outlooks, making both of their stocks worth an investment. However, if you're only looking to add one stock to your portfolio, you might wonder which is the better buy. So, let's assess.</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon</a></h2><p>Amazon has come a long way since starting out as an online book retailer in 1994, expanding into several lucrative industries. The company's stock has plummeted 46% since January amid macroeconomic headwinds. However, its diverse business has continued to see revenue growth in 2022, a promising sign for its future.</p><p>In the third quarter of 2022, Amazon's revenue rose 14.7% year over year to $127.1 billion, with operating income coming in at $2.5 billion.</p><p>In its e-commerce business, the company's North American segment increased by 20% to $78.8 billion, and its international revenue decreased by 5% to $27.7 billion. However, its earnings abroad primarily suffered from changes in foreign exchange rates, resulting in a strong dollar. Thus, Amazon's international revenue rose 12%, excluding exchange fluctuations.</p><p>The bright spot of Amazon's year amid an economic downturn has, no doubt, been its cloud computing business, Amazon Web Services (AWS). The platform's segment made up 100% of the company's operating income in Q3 2022, with revenue increasing 27% year over year to $20.5 billion.</p><p>While a potential recession in 2023 could lead to further declines in its e-commerce business, AWS's continued growth over the last year proves it will likely continue flourishing no matter the economic climate and prop the company up through a possibly challenging year.</p><p>However, according to the Federal Reserve, consumer spending has risen for the last three quarters. If this continues on its current trajectory, Amazon could see a return to operating income in its e-commerce business next year, along with continued growth in AWS.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a></h2><p>Despite falling 21% year to date, Apple stock has risen 228% over the last five years, making it one of the best growth companies out there. By comparison, Amazon's stock has increased by 55% in five years.</p><p>In a year plagued by tech industry declines, Apple has reported strong sales for its products. In the fourth quarter of 2022, the company's iPhone revenue increased by 9.6% to $42.6 billion despite worldwide smartphone shipments decreasing by 9.7%, according to IDC.</p><p>Similarly, the company's Mac segment reported growth of 25.3% year over year, hitting $11.5 billion, while worldwide PC shipments fell 15%.</p><p>Apple has attracted investor concern over the last month because of its dependence on China for iPhone production as the smartphones made up 52% of the company's revenue in its fiscal 2022. COVID-19 restrictions in the country have strained production and motivated Apple to begin diversifying its iPhone manufacturing.</p><p>The company is now making a portion of its iPhone 14s in India, with <b>JP Morgan Chase </b>estimating that about 25% of all Apple's products will be produced there by 2025. It could take years for Apple to move out of China completely; however, that doesn't dampen its long-term prospects.</p><p>In addition to diversifying its product manufacturing, the company has a swiftly growing services business that could alleviate pressure from its iPhone segment. As Apple's second-biggest segment in its fiscal 2022, services revenue rose 14% year over year to $78.1 billion. By contrast, iPhone revenue increased by 7% during the year.</p><p>Regarding key metrics for Amazon and Apple, Amazon's price-to-earnings ratio is at 84, rising 27% in the last year. Meanwhile, Apple's is about 23 after declining 24% since last December.</p><p>In terms of free cash flow, Amazon's stood at a negative 26.3 billion as of Sept. 30, while Apple's came in at $111.44 billion.</p><p>Amazon continues to have an excellent outlook over the long term. However, Apple has fared far better in 2022, and the stock currently offers more value. Additionally, the company's ability to keep up stellar demand for its products in a poor economic climate makes its stock undoubtedly a more reliable and better buy.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Better Buy: Amazon vs. Apple</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\">\nBetter Buy: Amazon vs. Apple\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-12-17 15:01 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/12/16/better-buy-amazon-vs-apple/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>A stock market sell-off in 2022 has tanked the share prices of some of the world's most valuable companies, creating an excellent time to invest in growth stocks like Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL). ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/12/16/better-buy-amazon-vs-apple/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果","AMZN":"亚马逊"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/12/16/better-buy-amazon-vs-apple/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2291076952","content_text":"A stock market sell-off in 2022 has tanked the share prices of some of the world's most valuable companies, creating an excellent time to invest in growth stocks like Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL).

On Wednesday, at least two Wall Street analysts struck a cautious note on Tesla and the electric-vehicle sector overall. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. lowered estimates to reflect “softer” supply and demand, while Morgan Stanley warned that the brakes were “screeching on electric vehicle demand,” and cut its projections for adoption in the US.</p><p>While Tesla shares have largely been sliding the whole year, the drop has intensified in the past couple months, with the stock falling 41% since the end of September.

The slump is painful for a broad swath of investors: The company is the sixth-biggest member of the S&P 500 Index as of Wednesday’s close. It’s been the third-largest drag this year on the benchmark, which Tesla joined two years ago next week.Tesla shares have been battered by angst over a potential recession and the Federal Reserve’s move to hike interest rates, which have prompted investors to dump risky and expensive stocks, sparking an intense selloff in technology and growth assets in particular.On top of that, the company’s own troubles, including supply shortages, soaring raw material costs and production disruptions, as well as Elon Musk’s preoccupation with turning around newly acquired Twitter Inc., have all weighed heavily on the stock. Musk has been dethroned as the world’s richest person because of the slide.Meanwhile, the outlook for next year is darkening as well. On Wednesday, at least two Wall Street analysts struck a cautious note on Tesla and the electric-vehicle sector overall. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. lowered estimates to reflect “softer” supply and demand, while Morgan Stanley warned that the brakes were “screeching on electric vehicle demand,” and cut its projections for adoption in the US.While Tesla shares have largely been sliding the whole year, the drop has intensified in the past couple months, with the stock falling 41% since the end of September. The broader S&P 500 Index has advanced 11% in the same period, while the technology-heavy Nasdaq 100 gained 7%.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":794,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9921296877,"gmtCreate":1671063767499,"gmtModify":1676538483198,"author":{"id":"3574212617517822","authorId":"3574212617517822","name":"Konnyaku","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/151457cadab3ed8bda3b475e79b505f0","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574212617517822","authorIdStr":"3574212617517822"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TIGR\">$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TIGR\">$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>","text":"$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9921296877","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":180,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9921309758,"gmtCreate":1670974466775,"gmtModify":1676538468303,"author":{"id":"3574212617517822","authorId":"3574212617517822","name":"Konnyaku","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/151457cadab3ed8bda3b475e79b505f0","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574212617517822","authorIdStr":"3574212617517822"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"....","listText":"....","text":"....","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9921309758","repostId":"2291749530","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2291749530","kind":"highlight","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":1670972284,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2291749530?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-12-14 06:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall St Rises After CPI Data but Fed Concerns Persist","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2291749530","media":"Reuters","summary":"* Consumer prices rise moderately in November* Growth, real estate stocks climb as yields fall* Mode","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>* Consumer prices rise moderately in November</p><p>* Growth, real estate stocks climb as yields fall</p><p>* Moderna surges on upbeat trial data</p><p>* Dow up 0.3%, S&P 500 up 0.73%, Nasdaq up 1.01%</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f892c698f58a35f4311d9fef665fe65b\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"1920\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>NEW YORK, Dec 13 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks rose on Tuesday after a unexpectedly small consumer price increase buoyed optimism that the Federal Reserve could soon dial back its inflation-taming interest rate hikes, but concerns remained the central back could stay aggressive.</p><p>The benchmark S&P 500 jumped as much as 2.76% to a three-month high early in the trading session on news that November U.S. consumer prices barely rose as gasoline and used cars cost less, leading to the smallest annual inflation increase in nearly a year at 7.1%.</p><p>Rising expectations for smaller and slower Fed rate hikes sent U.S. Treasury yields sharply lower and helped lift rate-sensitive gauges like the S&P 500 growth index, up 1.18%, and the S&P 500 real estate index up 2.04% to their highest intraday levels in nearly three months.

The real estate sector notched its biggest daily percentage gain in two weeks as the best performing of the 11 major sectors.Fed funds futures prices implied a better-than-even chance that the Fed will follow an expected half-point rate hike this week, with smaller 25-basis point hikes at its first two meetings of 2023, and stopping shy of 5% by March.Morgan Stanley's chief U.S. economist Ellen Zentner now sees even smaller Fed rate hikes, of 25 basis points at the central bank's February meeting, and no further increases in March, leaving the peak fed funds rate at 4.625%.Still, equities pared gains ahead of the Fed's policy statement on Wednesday, in which the central bank is widely expected to announce a 50 basis point rate hike.\"There was some excitement early on that the CPI number was once again below expectations - it shows some sequential cooling - but once we saw that initial pop, stock investors kind of reassessed,\" said Jason Ware, chief investment officer at Albion Financial Group in Salt Lake City, Utah.\"That probably took some of the steam out of the markets once investors realized tomorrow very well may be (Fed Chair) Jerome Powell throwing cold water on the rally today.\"The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 103.6 points, or 0.3%, to 34,108.64, the S&P 500 gained 29.09 points, or 0.73%, to 4,019.65 and the Nasdaq Composite added 113.08 points, or 1.01%, to 11,256.81.Energy, up 1.77%, was among the best performing S&P sectors on the day as the softer-than-anticipated inflation data sent the dollar lower and boosted crude oil prices.The consumer inflation numbers follow November's producer prices report last week, which was slightly higher than expected but pointed to a moderation in the trend.Still, some questioned whether the trend in prices could continue.\"Today's CPI print is incrementally good, but it needs to be sustained,\" said Venu Krishna, head of U.S. equity strategy at Barclays in New York.\"There is a big question mark whether we can really come to the 2% inflation (Fed target). Perhaps we live in a world in which it will be higher and that means rates will be higher and then multiples will certainly be lower.\"Moderna Inc surged 19.63% after the biotechnology firm's experimental vaccine in combination with Merck & Co Inc's blockbuster drug Keytruda showed promising results in a skin cancer study.

While there are some pockets of weakness in the labor market, overall, it remains remarkably strong.“When you’re thinking about where inflation’s going to be six to 12 months from now, I think it really comes down to wages,” Markowska said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":114,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9923566551,"gmtCreate":1670887950873,"gmtModify":1676538452213,"author":{"id":"3574212617517822","authorId":"3574212617517822","name":"Konnyaku","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/151457cadab3ed8bda3b475e79b505f0","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574212617517822","authorIdStr":"3574212617517822"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TIGR\">$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TIGR\">$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v>","text":"$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9923566551","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":100,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9923626503,"gmtCreate":1670852942602,"gmtModify":1676538446125,"author":{"id":"3574212617517822","authorId":"3574212617517822","name":"Konnyaku","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/151457cadab3ed8bda3b475e79b505f0","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574212617517822","authorIdStr":"3574212617517822"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"......","listText":"......","text":"......","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9923626503","repostId":"1195161646","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1195161646","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1670851416,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1195161646?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-12-12 21:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Investors Are Losing Faith in Cathie Wood’s ARK Innovation","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1195161646","media":"The Wall Street Journal","summary":"Investors who bought the dip inCathie Wood‘sARK InnovationARKK-1.45%decrease; red down pointing tria","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/df40f25b51f1c39ba351d85012c3410e\" tg-width=\"860\" tg-height=\"573\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Investors who bought the dip inCathie Wood‘sARK InnovationARKK-1.45%decrease; red down pointing triangleexchange-traded fund have been punished this year.

But a holiday bounce this year likely hinges on next week’s Federal Reserve rate decision and fresh inflation data.</span></p><p>Investors, like kids on Christmas Eve, have come to expect Santa Claus will get down the chimney, march over to Wall Street and deliver the rewarding gift of a stock-market rally.</p><p>This year, however, investors might be better off betting on a lump of coal, rather than waiting for tangible stock-market gains to emerge in this holiday season, market analysts said.</p><p>“The Santa Claus rally is canceled this year as the equity market navigates higher yields and contracting earnings,” said José Torres, senior economist at Interactive Brokers. “Seasonal tailwinds that have traditionally driven Santa Claus rallies pale in comparison to the plethora of headwinds the equity market currently faces.”</p><p>U.S. stock indexes tumbled this week, with the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average both booking their sharpest weekly declines in nearly three months, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The drop occurred as stronger-than-expected economic data added to concerns that the Federal Reserve might need to be more aggressive in its inflation battle than earlier anticipated, even with alarms flashing about a potential economic recession.</p><p>Santa Claus tends to come to Wall Street almost every year, bringing a short rally in the last five trading days of December, and the first two days of January. Since 1969, the Santa Rally has boosted the S&P 500 by an average of 1.3%, according to data from Stock Trader’s Almanac.</p><p>“December is the seasonally strongest month of the year, particularly in a midterm election year. So, December has been positive most of the time,” said David Keller, chief market strategist at StockCharts.com. “It would actually be very unusual for stocks to sell off dramatically in December.”</p><p><b>Will Wall Street get a Santa Claus Rally?</b></p><p>A rotten year for financial assets has begun drawing to a close under a cloud of uncertainty. Given the Federal Reserve’s tough stance on bringing inflation down to its 2% target and already volatile financial markets, many analysts think investors shouldn’t focus too much on whether Santa Claus ends up being naughty or nice.</p><p>“Next week is going to be a huge week for the markets as they attempt to find some footing heading into year end,” said Cliff Hodge, chief investment officer at Cornerstone Wealth, in emailed comments Friday.</p><p>That makes the Fed’s rate decisions next week and fresh inflation data even more crucial to equity markets. Friday’s wholesale prices rose more than expected in November, dampening hopes that inflation might be cooling off. The core producer-price index, which excludes volatile food, energy and trade prices, also rose 0.3% in November, up from a 0.2% gain in the prior month, the Labor Department said.</p><p>The corresponding November consumer-price index report, due at 8:30 a.m. Eastern on Tuesday, will further show if inflation is subsiding.The CPI increased 0.4% in October and 7.7% from a year ago. The core reading increased 0.3% for the month and 6.3% on an annual basis.</p><p>“If the CPI print comes in at 5% on core, then you’d get a real selloff in bonds and in equities. If inflation is still running hotter and you have a recession, can the Fed cut rates? Maybe not. Then you start getting into the stagflation scenarios,” said Ron Temple, head of U.S. equities at Lazard Asset Management.</p><p>Traders are pricing in a 77% probability that the Fed will raise its policy interest rate by 50 basis points to a range of 4.25% to 4.50% next Wednesday, the last day of its Dec. 13-14 meeting, according to the CME FedWatch tool.That would be a slower pace than its four consecutive 0.75 point rate hikes since June.</p><p>John Porter, chief investment officer and head of equity at Newton Investment Management, expects no surprises next week in terms of how much the Fed will raise interest rates. He does, however, anticipate stock-market investors will closely watch Fed Chair Powell’s press conference for insights into the decision and “hang on every single word.”</p><p>“Investors are contorting themselves almost into a pretzel and trying to over-interpret the language,” Porter told MarketWatch via phone. “Listen to what they say, not listen to what you want them to say. They [Fed officials] are going to continue to be vigilant, and they have to watch inflation.”</p><p><b>Does the ‘Santa’ rally really exist?</b></p><p>For years, market analysts have examined potential reasons for the typical seasonal Santa Claus pattern. But with this year still awash in red, some think a rally in late December could become a self-fulfilling prophecy, simply because investors might search for any reason to be slightly merry.</p><p>“If everyone’s focused on the positive seasonals, it could become more of this narrative that drives things rather than anything more fundamental,” David Lefkowitz, head of equities Americas of UBS Global Wealth Management, told MarketWatch via phone.</p><p>“Markets tend to like the holly-jolly spending season so much, so there’s a name for the rally that tends to happen at the end of the year,” said Liz Young, head of investment strategy at SoFi. “For what it’s worth, I think ‘Santa Claus Rally’ holds as much predictive power as ‘Sell in May and Walk Away,’ which is minimal and coincidental at best.”</p><p><b>Relief rally’s big tests</b></p><p>While the three main U.S. stock indexes booked sharply weekly losses, equities have rallied off the October lows. The S&P 500 has rallied 9.9% from its October low through Friday, while the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA,-0.90%gained 16.5% and the Nasdaq Composite advanced 6.6%, according to Dow Jones Market Data.</p><p>However, many top Wall Street analysts also see reasons for alarm, specifically that the stock market’s bounce off the recent lows is likely running out of room.</p><p>So, are investors ignoring warnings? Despite talk of the seeming inevitability of a year-end rally, several recent rally attempts failed, while Wall Street’s CBOE Volatility Index, or “fear gauge,” was at 22.86 at Friday’s close.

But a holiday bounce this year likely hinges on next week’s Federal Reserve rate decision and fresh inflation data.Investors, like kids on Christmas Eve, have come to expect Santa Claus will get down the chimney, march over to Wall Street and deliver the rewarding gift of a stock-market rally.This year, however, investors might be better off betting on a lump of coal, rather than waiting for tangible stock-market gains to emerge in this holiday season, market analysts said.“The Santa Claus rally is canceled this year as the equity market navigates higher yields and contracting earnings,” said José Torres, senior economist at Interactive Brokers. “Seasonal tailwinds that have traditionally driven Santa Claus rallies pale in comparison to the plethora of headwinds the equity market currently faces.”U.S. stock indexes tumbled this week, with the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average both booking their sharpest weekly declines in nearly three months, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The drop occurred as stronger-than-expected economic data added to concerns that the Federal Reserve might need to be more aggressive in its inflation battle than earlier anticipated, even with alarms flashing about a potential economic recession.Santa Claus tends to come to Wall Street almost every year, bringing a short rally in the last five trading days of December, and the first two days of January. Since 1969, the Santa Rally has boosted the S&P 500 by an average of 1.3%, according to data from Stock Trader’s Almanac.“December is the seasonally strongest month of the year, particularly in a midterm election year. So, December has been positive most of the time,” said David Keller, chief market strategist at StockCharts.com. “It would actually be very unusual for stocks to sell off dramatically in December.”Will Wall Street get a Santa Claus Rally?A rotten year for financial assets has begun drawing to a close under a cloud of uncertainty. Given the Federal Reserve’s tough stance on bringing inflation down to its 2% target and already volatile financial markets, many analysts think investors shouldn’t focus too much on whether Santa Claus ends up being naughty or nice.“Next week is going to be a huge week for the markets as they attempt to find some footing heading into year end,” said Cliff Hodge, chief investment officer at Cornerstone Wealth, in emailed comments Friday.That makes the Fed’s rate decisions next week and fresh inflation data even more crucial to equity markets. Friday’s wholesale prices rose more than expected in November, dampening hopes that inflation might be cooling off. The core producer-price index, which excludes volatile food, energy and trade prices, also rose 0.3% in November, up from a 0.2% gain in the prior month, the Labor Department said.The corresponding November consumer-price index report, due at 8:30 a.m. Eastern on Tuesday, will further show if inflation is subsiding.The CPI increased 0.4% in October and 7.7% from a year ago. The core reading increased 0.3% for the month and 6.3% on an annual basis.“If the CPI print comes in at 5% on core, then you’d get a real selloff in bonds and in equities. If inflation is still running hotter and you have a recession, can the Fed cut rates? Maybe not. Then you start getting into the stagflation scenarios,” said Ron Temple, head of U.S. equities at Lazard Asset Management.Traders are pricing in a 77% probability that the Fed will raise its policy interest rate by 50 basis points to a range of 4.25% to 4.50% next Wednesday, the last day of its Dec. 13-14 meeting, according to the CME FedWatch tool.That would be a slower pace than its four consecutive 0.75 point rate hikes since June.John Porter, chief investment officer and head of equity at Newton Investment Management, expects no surprises next week in terms of how much the Fed will raise interest rates. He does, however, anticipate stock-market investors will closely watch Fed Chair Powell’s press conference for insights into the decision and “hang on every single word.”“Investors are contorting themselves almost into a pretzel and trying to over-interpret the language,” Porter told MarketWatch via phone. “Listen to what they say, not listen to what you want them to say. They [Fed officials] are going to continue to be vigilant, and they have to watch inflation.”Does the ‘Santa’ rally really exist?For years, market analysts have examined potential reasons for the typical seasonal Santa Claus pattern. But with this year still awash in red, some think a rally in late December could become a self-fulfilling prophecy, simply because investors might search for any reason to be slightly merry.“If everyone’s focused on the positive seasonals, it could become more of this narrative that drives things rather than anything more fundamental,” David Lefkowitz, head of equities Americas of UBS Global Wealth Management, told MarketWatch via phone.“Markets tend to like the holly-jolly spending season so much, so there’s a name for the rally that tends to happen at the end of the year,” said Liz Young, head of investment strategy at SoFi. “For what it’s worth, I think ‘Santa Claus Rally’ holds as much predictive power as ‘Sell in May and Walk Away,’ which is minimal and coincidental at best.”Relief rally’s big testsWhile the three main U.S. stock indexes booked sharply weekly losses, equities have rallied off the October lows. The S&P 500 has rallied 9.9% from its October low through Friday, while the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA,-0.90%gained 16.5% and the Nasdaq Composite advanced 6.6%, according to Dow Jones Market Data.However, many top Wall Street analysts also see reasons for alarm, specifically that the stock market’s bounce off the recent lows is likely running out of room.So, are investors ignoring warnings? Despite talk of the seeming inevitability of a year-end rally, several recent rally attempts failed, while Wall Street’s CBOE Volatility Index, or “fear gauge,” was at 22.86 at Friday’s close. A drop below 20 on the VIX can signify that investor fears about potential market ructions are easing.U.S. stock indexes closed down on Friday with the S&P 500 losing 0.7%. The Dow dropped 0.9%, and the Nasdaq shed 0.7%. Three major indexes booked a week of sizable losses with the S&P 500 posting a weekly decline of 3.4%. The Dow declined by 2.8% and the Nasdaq Composite was down nearly 4% this week, according to Dow Jones Market Data.Next week, not long after the CPI and the Fed decision, investors will also receive November retail sales data and industrial production index on Thursday, followed by the S&P Global’s flash PMI readings on Friday.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":163,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9923054150,"gmtCreate":1670764048270,"gmtModify":1676538429514,"author":{"id":"3574212617517822","authorId":"3574212617517822","name":"Konnyaku","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/151457cadab3ed8bda3b475e79b505f0","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574212617517822","authorIdStr":"3574212617517822"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a

The Chinese tech and e-commerce giant has had its roughest year since going public, facing pressures from COVID-19 lockdowns, weakening consumer spending, and macroeconomic headwinds. Still, the company stays afloat. Our bullish sentiment on the stock is based on our belief that the worst of the macroeconomic headwinds and lockdown restrictions have been priced in, leaving the company's valuation too attractive to ignore.</p><p>We recommend investors buy the stock pullback because we believe Alibaba's core fundamentals remain intact. We expect the company to recover and grow meaningfully in CY2023 on the back of Alibaba Cloud and easing lockdown restrictions in China.</p><h2>Headwinds are priced in, for the most part</h2><p>Alibaba has been under significant pressure in its money-making department: China E-commerce. While Alibaba has expanded its business to integrate tech, the company remains a retailer at heart. The devaluation of the yuan currency, alongside the global weakening consumer spending, took a bite out of Alibaba's revenue this past quarter. Alibaba reported revenue of $29B, achieving a 3% Y/Y growth but falling short of expectations by $490M. Despite the 2Q23 earnings report, we believe Alibaba is well-positioned to grow in the e-commerce business in the long run. We believe Alibaba's customer base is more resilient than the market is giving it credit for. While 2Q23 reported a decline in the number of total buyers, we believe the company's Business-to-Business (B2B) model provides Alibaba with high-spending customers that will support sales even during market downtrends. We believe the company is trading cheaply for its position in the e-commerce market in China- with over 60% of the market share in 2021. We believe most of the weak consumer spending and lockdown restriction headwinds have been priced into the stock.</p><p>The following graph outlines Alibaba's annual revenue distribution between 2018-2022.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c3a7e4a20c30cfd12317dd986703610e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"410\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Statista</span></p><p>The stock has taken a hit- but we expect e-commerce to recover when 1) global consumer spending picks up and 2) as China eases the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions. The latter has already taken effect with China announcing restrictions are being lifted- despite China reporting that 25,353 individuals tested positive for COVID-19 on Friday. We expect China's 'Zero-COVID' policies to remain uncertain towards the end of the year, but we believe the government is taking measures to fine-tune the restrictions so they do not disrupt business and daily life. We're more constructive on Alibaba's e-commerce business going forward and believe the stock's valuation is too attractive to ignore.</p><h2>Alibaba Cloud is the third-largest cloud provider</h2><p>Alibaba Cloud was the company's second revenue driver in its 2Q23 earnings report, growing 4% Y/Y. Alibaba is expanding its position as a cloud provider investing $1B in a "global partner ecosystem upgrade." The Chinese Cloud provider is now the world's third-largest cloud provider after competitors Amazon (AMZN) and Microsoft (MSFT), with a worldwide market share of 9.5% in 2021, according to Gartner.</p><p>The following graph outlines Alibaba's position among the top cloud providers globally.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/85ba0ee67a5d0c119ce1ba60a6ae1418\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"367\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Gartner</span></p><p>We like Alibaba's position in the cloud market forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 19.9% between 2022-2029. We expect Alibaba cloud to be at the core of advancing China's digitalization and expect the stock to benefit from the upward trend in the cloud market. The company's cloud business is already growing significantly.</p><p>The following graph outlines Alibaba Cloud's growth between 2018-2022.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4d27f0a0d647b3a6e49fac3e0ea1c8c1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"412\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Statista</span></p><h2>Stock Performance</h2><p>Alibaba stock is down around 63% over the past five years.

The stock is trading at 0.2x EV/C2024 Sales versus 4.0x. Alibaba's valuation is central to our buy thesis.

We believe the pullback creates an attractive entry point to invest in the company at a discount.We expect continuing COVID-19 lockdowns and weaker consumer spending in China to pressure the stock's main source of revenue, China e-commerce.We're constructive on Alibaba as we believe the company's higher-spending consumers will make the stock more resilient even when total buyer numbers decline.We like Alibaba's position in the cloud market, specifically with the Alibaba Cloud growing 4% Y/Y despite macroeconomic headwinds.The stock is cheap, trading at 1.2x C2024 on a P/E basis compared to the peer group average of 17.7x. We recommend investors buy the pullback.maybefalseAlibaba (NYSE:BABA) stock popped around 8% after reporting 2Q23 earnings, despite missing revenue expectations. The Chinese tech and e-commerce giant has had its roughest year since going public, facing pressures from COVID-19 lockdowns, weakening consumer spending, and macroeconomic headwinds. Still, the company stays afloat. Our bullish sentiment on the stock is based on our belief that the worst of the macroeconomic headwinds and lockdown restrictions have been priced in, leaving the company's valuation too attractive to ignore.We recommend investors buy the stock pullback because we believe Alibaba's core fundamentals remain intact. We expect the company to recover and grow meaningfully in CY2023 on the back of Alibaba Cloud and easing lockdown restrictions in China.Headwinds are priced in, for the most partAlibaba has been under significant pressure in its money-making department: China E-commerce. While Alibaba has expanded its business to integrate tech, the company remains a retailer at heart. The devaluation of the yuan currency, alongside the global weakening consumer spending, took a bite out of Alibaba's revenue this past quarter. Alibaba reported revenue of $29B, achieving a 3% Y/Y growth but falling short of expectations by $490M. Despite the 2Q23 earnings report, we believe Alibaba is well-positioned to grow in the e-commerce business in the long run. We believe Alibaba's customer base is more resilient than the market is giving it credit for. While 2Q23 reported a decline in the number of total buyers, we believe the company's Business-to-Business (B2B) model provides Alibaba with high-spending customers that will support sales even during market downtrends. We believe the company is trading cheaply for its position in the e-commerce market in China- with over 60% of the market share in 2021. We believe most of the weak consumer spending and lockdown restriction headwinds have been priced into the stock.The following graph outlines Alibaba's annual revenue distribution between 2018-2022.StatistaThe stock has taken a hit- but we expect e-commerce to recover when 1) global consumer spending picks up and 2) as China eases the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions. The latter has already taken effect with China announcing restrictions are being lifted- despite China reporting that 25,353 individuals tested positive for COVID-19 on Friday. We expect China's 'Zero-COVID' policies to remain uncertain towards the end of the year, but we believe the government is taking measures to fine-tune the restrictions so they do not disrupt business and daily life. We're more constructive on Alibaba's e-commerce business going forward and believe the stock's valuation is too attractive to ignore.Alibaba Cloud is the third-largest cloud providerAlibaba Cloud was the company's second revenue driver in its 2Q23 earnings report, growing 4% Y/Y. Alibaba is expanding its position as a cloud provider investing $1B in a \"global partner ecosystem upgrade.\" The Chinese Cloud provider is now the world's third-largest cloud provider after competitors Amazon (AMZN) and Microsoft (MSFT), with a worldwide market share of 9.5% in 2021, according to Gartner.The following graph outlines Alibaba's position among the top cloud providers globally.GartnerWe like Alibaba's position in the cloud market forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 19.9% between 2022-2029. We expect Alibaba cloud to be at the core of advancing China's digitalization and expect the stock to benefit from the upward trend in the cloud market. The company's cloud business is already growing significantly.The following graph outlines Alibaba Cloud's growth between 2018-2022.StatistaStock PerformanceAlibaba stock is down around 63% over the past five years. YTD, the stock is down almost 35%. YTD, Alibaba is down alongside most of its peer group, with JD.com (JD)(HKG: 9618) dropping nearly 25%, Microsoft (MSFT) almost 28%, and Amazon (AMZN) around 56%. Our bullish thesis on the stock is based on our belief that the stock pullback creates an attractive entry point to invest in the company's 2023 growth.The following graphs outline the company's stock performance over the past five years and YTD compared to the competition.TechStockProsTechStockProsValuationAlibaba is exceptionally cheap, trading at 1.2x C2024 on a P/E basis EPS $66.17 compared to the peer group average of 17.7x. The stock is trading at 0.2x EV/C2024 Sales versus 4.0x. Alibaba's valuation is central to our buy thesis. The stock is down around 44% from its 52-week high of $139, and we believe the company provides an attractive entry point into a major retail and tech company.The following table outlines BABA's valuation compared to the peer group.TechStockProsWord on Wall StreetWall Street is overwhelmingly buy-rated on the stock. Of 47 analysts covering the stock, 41 are buy-rated, five are hold-rated, and the remaining are sell-rated. The stock is trading at $78. The median and mean price targets are set at $136 and $134, respectively, with a major potential upside of 72-74%.The following table outlines BABA's sell-side ratings and price targets.TechStockProsWhat to do with the stockAlibaba stock dropped 75% from its high of $317.14 in October 2020. We believe the stock provides an attractive entry point into one of the world's largest e-commerce and cloud providers at a discount. We expect Alibaba to grow on two fronts: cloud and e-commerce. We believe Alibaba Cloud will benefit from the global shift to the cloud. We're also constructive on the company's e-commerce business once consumer weakness and lockdown restrictions in China ease. We recommend investors buy the stock before it rallies.This article is written by Tech Stock Pros for reference only.

The first column contains the MoM percent change for the current month. The second column contains the MoM percent change in the prior month. The third column contains the MoM acceleration – i.e. the difference between the percent change this month minus the percent change last month. The fourth column contains the Cumulative Contribution to the percent MoM change of CPI. This describes exactly how much each component contributed to the cumulative All Items MoM percent change in CPI. The sum of the values in this column will yield the MoM percent change of All Items CPI (with minor discrepancy due to rounding). Finally, the rightmost column contains the Cumulative Contribution to MoM Acceleration of All Items CPI. The sum of the contributions in this column adds up to the MoM Acceleration of All Items CPI. Although all five columns provide important information, we recommend that readers pay special attention to the rightmost column (Cumulative Contribution to Acceleration) as it reveals exactly what drove the MoM acceleration/deceleration in CPI during the current month compared to the prior month.</p><p>As can be seen in the table above, Core Services ex Housing and Core Goods decelerated very significantly, accounting for most of the overall deceleration in CPI.

This month’s CPI should provide a \"window of opportunity\" - all other factors remaining equal - for bond and stock markets to rally between now and the next CPI report.Summary Data and AnalysisFigure 1 below highlights key summary data and analysis for this month’s All Items CPI.Figure 1: All Items: Change, Acceleration, Expectations & SurpriseAll Items CPI(BLS, Investor Acumen)Source: BLS, Investing.com, Investor AcumenAs can be seen above, All-Items CPI decelerated significantly and significantly surprised to the downside.Figure 2 below highlights key summary data and analysis for this month’s Core CPI.Figure 2: Core: Change, Acceleration, Expectations & SurpriseCore CPI(BLS, Investor Acumen)Source: BLS, Investing.com, Investor AcumenAs can be seen above, Core CPI also decelerated significantly, providing a significant downside surprise.Analysis of Contributions of Key Aggregate Components of CPIIn Figure 3, we display the contributions to CPI inflation of five major aggregate components to the MoM (month-over-month) change in CPI and the MoM acceleration of CPI.Figure 3: Analysis of Key Aggregate Components of CPIAggregate CPI Component Analysis(BLS, Investor Acumen)Source: BLS, Investor AcumenWe will briefly review how to interpret the table above (as well as other tables in this report), describing each column from left to right. The first column contains the MoM percent change for the current month. The second column contains the MoM percent change in the prior month. The third column contains the MoM acceleration – i.e. the difference between the percent change this month minus the percent change last month. The fourth column contains the Cumulative Contribution to the percent MoM change of CPI. This describes exactly how much each component contributed to the cumulative All Items MoM percent change in CPI. The sum of the values in this column will yield the MoM percent change of All Items CPI (with minor discrepancy due to rounding). Finally, the rightmost column contains the Cumulative Contribution to MoM Acceleration of All Items CPI. The sum of the contributions in this column adds up to the MoM Acceleration of All Items CPI. Although all five columns provide important information, we recommend that readers pay special attention to the rightmost column (Cumulative Contribution to Acceleration) as it reveals exactly what drove the MoM acceleration/deceleration in CPI during the current month compared to the prior month.As can be seen in the table above, Core Services ex Housing and Core Goods decelerated very significantly, accounting for most of the overall deceleration in CPI. More details will be provided below.Analysis of CPI Components that Contributed Most to Change & Acceleration of CPIIn the following section, we perform the same contribution analysis as above, but at a more granular level of detail. In Figure 4 below, we list the top 10 CPI components (most granular level) that contributed negatively and positively to the MoM percent change in All Items CPI. These contributions take into account both the magnitude of the MoM change in each component as well as the weight of each component in All Items CPI.Figure 4: Top Contributors to MoM Percent ChangeTop CPI Contributors(BLS, Investor Acumen)Source: BLS, Investor AcumenOne thing that emerges from this analysis is that a significant share of the deceleration of core CPI this month came from relatively volatile items, that might be considered \"one-offs\".

Cross-border e-commerce sales will total $736 billion in 2023, according to <b>Forrester Research</b>, but Global-e handled just $990 million in GMV through the first half of 2022.

But a holiday bounce this year likely hinges on next week’s Federal Reserve rate decision and fresh inflation data.</span></p><p>Investors, like kids on Christmas Eve, have come to expect Santa Claus will get down the chimney, march over to Wall Street and deliver the rewarding gift of a stock-market rally.</p><p>This year, however, investors might be better off betting on a lump of coal, rather than waiting for tangible stock-market gains to emerge in this holiday season, market analysts said.</p><p>“The Santa Claus rally is canceled this year as the equity market navigates higher yields and contracting earnings,” said José Torres, senior economist at Interactive Brokers. “Seasonal tailwinds that have traditionally driven Santa Claus rallies pale in comparison to the plethora of headwinds the equity market currently faces.”</p><p>U.S. stock indexes tumbled this week, with the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average both booking their sharpest weekly declines in nearly three months, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The drop occurred as stronger-than-expected economic data added to concerns that the Federal Reserve might need to be more aggressive in its inflation battle than earlier anticipated, even with alarms flashing about a potential economic recession.</p><p>Santa Claus tends to come to Wall Street almost every year, bringing a short rally in the last five trading days of December, and the first two days of January. Since 1969, the Santa Rally has boosted the S&P 500 by an average of 1.3%, according to data from Stock Trader’s Almanac.</p><p>“December is the seasonally strongest month of the year, particularly in a midterm election year. So, December has been positive most of the time,” said David Keller, chief market strategist at StockCharts.com. “It would actually be very unusual for stocks to sell off dramatically in December.”</p><p><b>Will Wall Street get a Santa Claus Rally?</b></p><p>A rotten year for financial assets has begun drawing to a close under a cloud of uncertainty. Given the Federal Reserve’s tough stance on bringing inflation down to its 2% target and already volatile financial markets, many analysts think investors shouldn’t focus too much on whether Santa Claus ends up being naughty or nice.</p><p>“Next week is going to be a huge week for the markets as they attempt to find some footing heading into year end,” said Cliff Hodge, chief investment officer at Cornerstone Wealth, in emailed comments Friday.</p><p>That makes the Fed’s rate decisions next week and fresh inflation data even more crucial to equity markets. Friday’s wholesale prices rose more than expected in November, dampening hopes that inflation might be cooling off. The core producer-price index, which excludes volatile food, energy and trade prices, also rose 0.3% in November, up from a 0.2% gain in the prior month, the Labor Department said.</p><p>The corresponding November consumer-price index report, due at 8:30 a.m. Eastern on Tuesday, will further show if inflation is subsiding.The CPI increased 0.4% in October and 7.7% from a year ago. The core reading increased 0.3% for the month and 6.3% on an annual basis.</p><p>“If the CPI print comes in at 5% on core, then you’d get a real selloff in bonds and in equities. If inflation is still running hotter and you have a recession, can the Fed cut rates? Maybe not.

But a holiday bounce this year likely hinges on next week’s Federal Reserve rate decision and fresh inflation data.Investors, like kids on Christmas Eve, have come to expect Santa Claus will get down the chimney, march over to Wall Street and deliver the rewarding gift of a stock-market rally.This year, however, investors might be better off betting on a lump of coal, rather than waiting for tangible stock-market gains to emerge in this holiday season, market analysts said.“The Santa Claus rally is canceled this year as the equity market navigates higher yields and contracting earnings,” said José Torres, senior economist at Interactive Brokers. “Seasonal tailwinds that have traditionally driven Santa Claus rallies pale in comparison to the plethora of headwinds the equity market currently faces.”U.S. stock indexes tumbled this week, with the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average both booking their sharpest weekly declines in nearly three months, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The drop occurred as stronger-than-expected economic data added to concerns that the Federal Reserve might need to be more aggressive in its inflation battle than earlier anticipated, even with alarms flashing about a potential economic recession.Santa Claus tends to come to Wall Street almost every year, bringing a short rally in the last five trading days of December, and the first two days of January. Since 1969, the Santa Rally has boosted the S&P 500 by an average of 1.3%, according to data from Stock Trader’s Almanac.“December is the seasonally strongest month of the year, particularly in a midterm election year. So, December has been positive most of the time,” said David Keller, chief market strategist at StockCharts.com. “It would actually be very unusual for stocks to sell off dramatically in December.”Will Wall Street get a Santa Claus Rally?A rotten year for financial assets has begun drawing to a close under a cloud of uncertainty. Given the Federal Reserve’s tough stance on bringing inflation down to its 2% target and already volatile financial markets, many analysts think investors shouldn’t focus too much on whether Santa Claus ends up being naughty or nice.“Next week is going to be a huge week for the markets as they attempt to find some footing heading into year end,” said Cliff Hodge, chief investment officer at Cornerstone Wealth, in emailed comments Friday.That makes the Fed’s rate decisions next week and fresh inflation data even more crucial to equity markets. Friday’s wholesale prices rose more than expected in November, dampening hopes that inflation might be cooling off. The core producer-price index, which excludes volatile food, energy and trade prices, also rose 0.3% in November, up from a 0.2% gain in the prior month, the Labor Department said.The corresponding November consumer-price index report, due at 8:30 a.m. Eastern on Tuesday, will further show if inflation is subsiding.The CPI increased 0.4% in October and 7.7% from a year ago. The core reading increased 0.3% for the month and 6.3% on an annual basis.“If the CPI print comes in at 5% on core, then you’d get a real selloff in bonds and in equities. If inflation is still running hotter and you have a recession, can the Fed cut rates? Maybe not. Then you start getting into the stagflation scenarios,” said Ron Temple, head of U.S. equities at Lazard Asset Management.Traders are pricing in a 77% probability that the Fed will raise its policy interest rate by 50 basis points to a range of 4.25% to 4.50% next Wednesday, the last day of its Dec. 13-14 meeting, according to the CME FedWatch tool.That would be a slower pace than its four consecutive 0.75 point rate hikes since June.John Porter, chief investment officer and head of equity at Newton Investment Management, expects no surprises next week in terms of how much the Fed will raise interest rates. He does, however, anticipate stock-market investors will closely watch Fed Chair Powell’s press conference for insights into the decision and “hang on every single word.”“Investors are contorting themselves almost into a pretzel and trying to over-interpret the language,” Porter told MarketWatch via phone. “Listen to what they say, not listen to what you want them to say. They [Fed officials] are going to continue to be vigilant, and they have to watch inflation.”Does the ‘Santa’ rally really exist?For years, market analysts have examined potential reasons for the typical seasonal Santa Claus pattern. But with this year still awash in red, some think a rally in late December could become a self-fulfilling prophecy, simply because investors might search for any reason to be slightly merry.“If everyone’s focused on the positive seasonals, it could become more of this narrative that drives things rather than anything more fundamental,” David Lefkowitz, head of equities Americas of UBS Global Wealth Management, told MarketWatch via phone.“Markets tend to like the holly-jolly spending season so much, so there’s a name for the rally that tends to happen at the end of the year,” said Liz Young, head of investment strategy at SoFi. “For what it’s worth, I think ‘Santa Claus Rally’ holds as much predictive power as ‘Sell in May and Walk Away,’ which is minimal and coincidental at best.”Relief rally’s big testsWhile the three main U.S. stock indexes booked sharply weekly losses, equities have rallied off the October lows.

Despite the tournament’s controversial location, the soccer (or as it is known by the rest of the world, football) extravaganza is expected to draw an audience of billions who will tune in to watch icons such as Lionel Messi, Christiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappe attempt to get their hands on the Jules Rimet trophy and write their names and their countries’ fellow representatives into history.Just for context, the previous 2018 World Cup saw an audience of over 3.6 billion people watch matches, with the final drawing 1.12 billion viewers – that’s more than 5x above the viewing figures for the 2022 Super Bowl.Such a global happening is bound to have commercial implications and could be advantageous to certain categories. To which ones exactly? Streaming platforms, online betting, soccer video games, digital advertising and sporting goods/apparel, all come readily to mind as segments which could benefit.With this in mind, we delved into the TipRanks database and pulled up two names which could get a boost from this global sporting festival. Let’s kick off.Electronic Arts (EA)Attempting to emulate the skills of global sports gods is a favorite pastime for gamers and the first stock will look at is an expert at providing such thrills. Electronic Arts is one of the video gaming space’s titans and a home computer gaming trailblazer.Specifically relating to the World Cup, its EA Sports titles include the FIFA soccer game in addition to titles such as NBA Live, Madden NFL, and NHL. The portfolio, however, extends beyond just sports titles, and includes some of gaming’s most well-known brands like Apex Legends, Battlefield, Need for Speed, and Plants vs. Zombies, amongst others.After benefiting immensely from the work-from-home trend during the pandemic, the reopening and then the economic downturn have been headwinds for the gaming industry as sales have cooled down in 2022.As such, EA’s latest quarterly report, for the second fiscal quarter (September quarter) was a mixed affair. Net bookings fell by 5.4% year-over-year to $1.75 billion, missing the Street’s forecast by $30 million, while the company also lowered its FY 2023 net bookings outlook from the range between $7.90 billion to $8.10 billion to the range between $7.65 billion and $7.85 billion. The Street’s forecast stood at $7.97 billion.However, the company beat expectations on the bottom-line with EPS of $1.07 coming in ahead of the $1.00 consensus estimate. Moreover, the company raised its FY 2023 EPS forecast to around $3.11-$3.34 from the prior guidance of $2.79-$2.87.Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter makes note of the strong performance in the current quarter from the game which stands to benefit the most from the World Cup.“FIFA is off to a record start so far this quarter, and the company announced several initiatives to drive Ultimate Team engagement as the tournament progresses over the remainder of the quarter,” the analyst said. “We’re confident in EA’s ability to grow the franchise in a World Cup year, and especially confident in its ability to grow this quarter, which is historically strong on its own… We continue to believe that the video game industry is undervalued, having historically traded at a significant premium to the market multiple.”To this end, Pachter rates EA shares an Outperform (i.e. Buy) while his $164 price target makes room for 12-month gains of 25%.Looking at the consensus breakdown, based on 9 Buy ratings vs. 4 Holds, EA receives a Moderate Buy consensus rating.fuboTV (FUBO)Let’s now look at a stock that stands to benefit in a different way from the World Cup. FuboTV is a streaming platform, and one that is mainly focused on sports.In fact, upon its launch in 2015, the streaming service was focused solely on soccer, but in 2017 changed tack to become an all-sports service and later, targeting the cord-cutting trend morphed into a virtual multichannel video programming distributor (vMVPD) model offering also non-sports programs. That said, sports remain the main focal point and depending on region (the service is available in the U.S., Canada and Spain), subscribers can watch EPL, NBA, MLB, NFL, NHL, MLS, CPL games as well as international football.Those subscribers have been growing with each quarter as was the case again in Q3. North American subscribers rose by 31% year-over-year to a record 1,231,000, while international subs reached 358,000. All this helped the company generate revenue of $225 million, above the $213 million expected on Wall Street.Ongoing growth aside, the problem for FUBO has been one of profitability – or lack thereof – a situation the company hopes to fix by 2025. While the continued losses, along with other issues such as rising competition and the effects of inflation are worries for Wedbush’s Michael Pachter, the analyst believes the fact FUBO raised its revenue and subscriber outlook when it released the Q3 metrics is indicative of how the company can make headway on account of the games.“We think management’s confidence around Q4 results in due in part to increased political advertising, as well as the anticipated uptick in subscribers driven by the upcoming World Cup, which fuboTV will uniquely be broadcasting in 4K,” Pachter explained. “Given the upside and downside risk, we think the current share price affords a compelling entry point.”To this end, Pachter has an Outperform (i.e. Buy) rating for FUBO shares, backed by a $5 price target. There’s plenty of upsides – 80% to be exact – should the target be met over the next 12 months.Overall, with 3 Buy and Hold ratings, each, the stock claims a Moderate Buy consensus view.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":48,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9961473978,"gmtCreate":1669037820494,"gmtModify":1676538142848,"author":{"id":"3574212617517822","authorId":"3574212617517822","name":"Konnyaku","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/151457cadab3ed8bda3b475e79b505f0","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574212617517822","authorIdStr":"3574212617517822"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"......","listText":"......","text":"......","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9961473978","repostId":"2284891180","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2284891180","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1669017887,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2284891180?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-21 16:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"SPX: A Rallying Stock Market Is Bearish","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2284891180","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryStocks rallied viciously due to lower inflation data.I believe this bear market rally has som","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2>Summary</h2><ul><li>Stocks rallied viciously due to lower inflation data.</li><li>I believe this bear market rally has some more room to go, but I wouldn’t bet on it.</li><li>The root cause of falling inflation isn’t bullish for stocks.</li><li>In 2023, bad news will be bad news again, and a rallying stock market is bearish.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41fe2c4feaba1c36352e0d9664de24f3\" tg-width=\"750\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>blewisphotography/iStock via Getty Images</span></p><h2>“Hopium” is back again</h2><p>It doesn’t take much for investors to be optimistic about the markets again. Last week the S&P 500 (SPX) rallied ~6%, and the Nasdaq ~8% after the inflation print came in lower than expected at 7.7% YoY or 0.4% MoM. The PPI data should come in lower too, reflecting the symptoms of a slowing economy and weakening consumer spending.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e8830de04b6cb31c02f372c43e213054\" tg-width=\"1275\" tg-height=\"700\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>CPI & PPI YoY Percentage Change (Author Excel with Data from fred.stlouisfed.org)</span></p><p>So far, so unsurprising – not for the market, though. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq made the bulk of their gains last week right after the CPI report was published. Markets played the pivot book: The Dollar (DXY) withdrew sharply as Yields collapsed, and assets appreciated. The market priced in a higher probability of relative monetary easing of the Federal Reserve due to lower-than-expected inflation. Naturally, the most interest-rate sensitive assets appreciated the most, hence the outperformance of the Nasdaq. Bitcoin (BTC-USD) rose over 10% on that day. Although that gain has to be taken with a caveat because the CPI print followed the day that FTX went bankrupt and Crypto assets collapsed. Therefore, a rebound seemed natural.</p><p>On Thursday, the Nasdaq (NDX) had its best trading day since April 2020. I don’t believe a new bull market has started, however. Huge upswings and short squeezes are characteristic of bear market rallies. The underlying macroeconomic circumstances have not changed enough to put an end to this bear market. I believe this rally is one of the bigger ones, like the bear market rally starting in June 2022. I believe the market can feed off of big short exposure and the narrative that inflation has finally peaked.</p><p>I also believe inflation has peaked, as I cannot imagine that the economy will be able to healthily operate with the immense burden of the sharply risen cost of capital. The previously raised interest rates start to feed into the economy gradually. As Jerome Powell always reminds us: “Monetary Policy works with long and variable lags.” That counts for monetary easing and monetary tightening. Additionally, the basis effect should help keep the YoY inflation rate comparatively low.</p><p>The financial stress that the economy will have to endure during the first half of 2023 seems too high to be bullish at the current valuation level. While analysts have lowered their expectations for 2023 earnings, they are still around ~$220 for the S&P 500 (0% growth), which currently reflects a P/E FWD of 18x. Given the macroeconomic and geopolitical circumstances I believe that is still way too high.</p><p>In the event of a recession, which is my base case, earnings should fall and not only stay flat for 2023. Assuming the earnings multiple for the S&P 500 goes back to its mean of 16x and earnings depreciate by 10% in 2023 (basically guaranteed if a real recession hits), the fair value of the S&P should be around 3,200 points. Of course, the P/E FWD ratio estimate is only for constructing a framework about where the fair value<i>should</i> be. There are many more factors at play.</p><p>After all, the alternative to equities is an investment in basically risk-free US government bonds, which now have moved into the positive real-rate territory across the yield curve. During the last 20 years, expansive monetary policy has moved even the most risk-averse investors into the equity space. Now that risk-free rates have risen, these risk-averse players are attracted by the risk-free yield, especially when compared to equity premiums. This is why I believe that the current drawdown in equities only accounts for the yield rise and not for earnings depreciation. I make the speculation of largely not being invested while waiting until the other shoe drops, most likely in H1/2023.</p><h2>Searching for historical bottoms</h2><p>Usually, the market is forward-looking and doesn’t reflect the economy. However, historically trying to front-run the pivot didn’t work:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8447327903f174e95c5886662c788efe\" tg-width=\"1278\" tg-height=\"700\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Fed Funds & SP500 (Excel from Author using data from fred.stlouisfed.org)</span></p><p>That’s because of the circumstances of the previous pivot points.</p><p>When the Federal Reserve raised rates during the 2000’s it was because the economy was overheating, and the labor market was tight. While rates were rising, the stock market appreciated because of strong fundamentals (rising GDP). After some time, the monetary tightening worked itself into the economy, and the market fundamentals started to worsen. After a period of plateauing rates, the stock market tumbled, and the Federal Reserve was quick to cut rates. While the Federal Reserve was cutting rates the stock market fell even further. Historically, the bottom of the stock market was in only<i>after</i> the Federal Reserve had already cut rates significantly and the liquidity cycle started to move upwards again.</p><p>In 2022, however, we have a different situation. The Federal Reserve tightened monetary policy, and the stock market depreciated <i>because of it</i>. That fundamental difference exists because of inflation.</p><p>During the last 40 years, the overarching trend of inflation was down. Especially in the last 20 years, global Central Banks struggled to create inflation with loose monetary policy. If the economy and the financial markets start to struggle while there is no concern about material inflation or even fear of deflation, then the playbook of Central Banks becomes very easy: stimulate the economy to raise inflation and decrease unemployment.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/93089c2daa2b2a46fe64342b4a9c84db\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"659\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Taylor-Rule (Author)</span></p><p>According to the Taylor Rule, the Federal Reserve had to lower interest rates (1-h) so often in the past because inflation was below the long-term inflation rate goal,<i>and</i> (1-g) GDP was also below the long-term production potential. Both parts of the formula demanded monetary easing.</p><p>During 2020-2022 the macroeconomic circumstances changed 180 degrees. Because of several shortages, and most importantly massive fiscal stimulus, which was fully financed by expansive monetary policy, demand exploded while goods were scarce. After inflation came in hot quarter after quarter, the Federal Reserve had to raise rates into a falling stock market for the first time in 20+ years.</p><p>Because of the traditionally backward-looking indicators of Central Banks (i.e. unemployment), the economy appeared red hot while inflation was clearly above the 2% target. These two macroeconomic circumstances basically guaranteed monetary tightening. A falling stock market is appreciated by the Federal Reserve because it resembles tightening financial conditions. Tightening financial conditions should decrease inflation and raise unemployment – the goals of the central bank policy during times like these.</p><h2>Trying to time the pivot?</h2><p>We are in a different situation now, though. Inflation is still way above the 2% target. But the slowdown of the global economy is getting more and more clear by the day. And many of the bubbles fueled by monetary excesses [i.e. Meme-Tech-stocks like Peleton (PTON), Palantir (PLTR), Nikola (NKLA), or Crypto (BTC) / (ETH)] have deflated 80-90% from their highs.</p><p>Many investors ask themselves now: If inflation has peaked and the economy is materially slowing down, why not buy the dip in risk assets? Won’t the Fed Put be back after inflation comes down MoM?</p><p>That sounds like an attractive argument. Hence, I believe the current rally could sustain for the remainder of 2022. There are finally positive news for the stock market to rally. Ultimately, however, I believe the current stock price action is nothing more than a rather violent bear market rally because of the following reasons:</p><h3>1. The Federal Reserve wants to make sure that inflation is dealt with</h3><p>During the speculation mania that followed the March 2020 Covid crash, any doubt about valuation levels was quickly dismissed with the “don’t fight the Fed” mantra. And speculators were right back then. If the liquidity cycle makes a big upswing, you don’t want to be caught off guard shorting stocks because of their stretched valuations. Tesla (TSLA) perma bears painfully had to learn that. But the same counts for when the liquidity cycle is in a downturn and investors are recklessly holding on to their overvalued tech stocks. Fighting the Fed in 2022 means staying invested in long-duration, high-growth, high-valuation equities. Just last week, Powell reiterated the Federal Reserve’s stance to tighten policy until something breaks. Powell seemed confident that it would be easier to put the economy into recession and then rescue it after they overtighten financial conditions. After all, nothing kills inflation like a recession.</p><h3>2. Unemployment is too low</h3><p>Without the labor market breaking and unemployment sharply rising, there is no reason for global Central Banks to meaningfully change the direction of their policy to an accommodative level. During the FOMC meeting, Powell made it clear that rates will likely stay higher for longer than the market currently expects. The Federal Reserve has given up on its attempt of engineering a “softish landing”. Inflation becoming entrenched in the economy is their worst fear, and with the low levels of unemployment, the Central Bank doesn’t have to balance its efforts to slow down inflation. Even after the rate hikes are over, quantitative tightening will worsen financial conditions and be a great hurdle for the stock market.</p><p>Some layoffs have already started. To my belief, tech companies will be able to raise productivity by removing some unnecessary workforce from recent years, where revenue growth was highly monetarily valued, but profitability wasn’t. Facebook (FB), Amazon (AMZN), and Twitter (TWTR) have already started. Alphabet (GOOG) and Apple (AAPL) are likely to follow. If high-paid workers lose their steady income stream, they are likely to sell off some of their accumulated assets in order to have a safety cushion to rely upon. It would be typical that this selling coincides with retail capitulation and a final rise in volatility, which usually marks the low of the bear market. I don’t believe we’re at the end yet, but I don’t want to dismiss the rather orderly decline of stock prices in 2022.</p><h3>3. Bad news will be bad news again</h3><p>I think 2023 will be about the labor market and the effects of higher rates for the housing market and less about the Federal Reserve monetary policy. After all, the bulk of the rate hikes are done, and now it is about how long they can stay this elevated. That’s not as interesting for the stock market as hiking 50-75 basis points per month, at least in terms of forward pricing. As seen last week, the current market is still heavily focused on inflation and the resulting change of the Federal Reserve policy. That’s why bad news about an economic slowdown were bullish. Inflation expectations would decrease, and as a function of that, the Federal Reserve was expected to be less tight.</p><p>I don’t expect the Federal Reserve to immediately cut rates if the labor market eases. Because of that consistency and resilience to lower rates, I think that bad news will be bad news again in 2023. The housing market should come under pressure too, as more and more mortgages have to be refinanced. As of now, the illiquidity of the housing market makes it seem somewhat resilient. But I don’t believe that resiliency will hold in 2023 if rates stay elevated.</p><p>Hiking interest rates for fewer percentage points is less bearish but still not bullish, given how elevated rates already are. The liquidity cycle is still in a downturn, albeit less quickly, and Quantitative Tightening still continues linearly. Until now, much of the Quantitative Tightening got neutralized by a rundown of the US Treasury General account:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5ecc783a2e50ff641e9c70d6bfcb9101\" tg-width=\"1169\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>M2 & US Treasury General Account (fred.stlouisfed.org)</span></p><p>In 2023, the softening impact of decreasing the treasury account in line with Quantitative Easing will still be possible for some time, but not forever. The likelihood of excessive fiscal policy stimulating the economy has decreased too, given the results of the US midterm elections.</p><h3>4. A stock-market rally is bearish</h3><p>Something has to break for the Fed to pivot. If the market reaches previous highs, it only increases the probability that Central banks tighten monetary policy even further. That’s because financial conditions usually ease during stock market rallies. Bond yields usually fall because the market expects accommodative monetary policy, which makes it possible for the Federal Reserve to conduct more Quantitative Tightening because investors buy them, trying to front-run a pivot. To me that seems self-defeating.</p><h2>Summary</h2><p>I believe that in 2023, bad news will be bad news again. Plunging earnings and layoffs will ultimately be bearish for the stock market. The Federal Reserve can only pivot if something breaks. The process of “breaking” usually isn’t bullish for the stock market. Bear markets often end with capitulation, but long-only ETF DCA retail still makes their monthly investments in the S&P 500. Unemployment has to rise to turn these inflows into outflows. Bad news will be bad news, and a rallying stock market will be bearish.</p><p><i>This article is written by Nikolai Galozi for reference only.

Last week the S&P 500 (SPX) rallied ~6%, and the Nasdaq ~8% after the inflation print came in lower than expected at 7.7% YoY or 0.4% MoM. The PPI data should come in lower too, reflecting the symptoms of a slowing economy and weakening consumer spending.CPI & PPI YoY Percentage Change (Author Excel with Data from fred.stlouisfed.org)So far, so unsurprising – not for the market, though. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq made the bulk of their gains last week right after the CPI report was published. Markets played the pivot book: The Dollar (DXY) withdrew sharply as Yields collapsed, and assets appreciated. The market priced in a higher probability of relative monetary easing of the Federal Reserve due to lower-than-expected inflation. Naturally, the most interest-rate sensitive assets appreciated the most, hence the outperformance of the Nasdaq. Bitcoin (BTC-USD) rose over 10% on that day. Although that gain has to be taken with a caveat because the CPI print followed the day that FTX went bankrupt and Crypto assets collapsed. Therefore, a rebound seemed natural.On Thursday, the Nasdaq (NDX) had its best trading day since April 2020. I don’t believe a new bull market has started, however. Huge upswings and short squeezes are characteristic of bear market rallies. The underlying macroeconomic circumstances have not changed enough to put an end to this bear market. I believe this rally is one of the bigger ones, like the bear market rally starting in June 2022. I believe the market can feed off of big short exposure and the narrative that inflation has finally peaked.I also believe inflation has peaked, as I cannot imagine that the economy will be able to healthily operate with the immense burden of the sharply risen cost of capital. The previously raised interest rates start to feed into the economy gradually. As Jerome Powell always reminds us: “Monetary Policy works with long and variable lags.” That counts for monetary easing and monetary tightening. Additionally, the basis effect should help keep the YoY inflation rate comparatively low.The financial stress that the economy will have to endure during the first half of 2023 seems too high to be bullish at the current valuation level. While analysts have lowered their expectations for 2023 earnings, they are still around ~$220 for the S&P 500 (0% growth), which currently reflects a P/E FWD of 18x. Given the macroeconomic and geopolitical circumstances I believe that is still way too high.In the event of a recession, which is my base case, earnings should fall and not only stay flat for 2023. Assuming the earnings multiple for the S&P 500 goes back to its mean of 16x and earnings depreciate by 10% in 2023 (basically guaranteed if a real recession hits), the fair value of the S&P should be around 3,200 points. Of course, the P/E FWD ratio estimate is only for constructing a framework about where the fair valueshould be. There are many more factors at play.After all, the alternative to equities is an investment in basically risk-free US government bonds, which now have moved into the positive real-rate territory across the yield curve. During the last 20 years, expansive monetary policy has moved even the most risk-averse investors into the equity space. Now that risk-free rates have risen, these risk-averse players are attracted by the risk-free yield, especially when compared to equity premiums. This is why I believe that the current drawdown in equities only accounts for the yield rise and not for earnings depreciation. I make the speculation of largely not being invested while waiting until the other shoe drops, most likely in H1/2023.Searching for historical bottomsUsually, the market is forward-looking and doesn’t reflect the economy. However, historically trying to front-run the pivot didn’t work:Fed Funds & SP500 (Excel from Author using data from fred.stlouisfed.org)That’s because of the circumstances of the previous pivot points.When the Federal Reserve raised rates during the 2000’s it was because the economy was overheating, and the labor market was tight. While rates were rising, the stock market appreciated because of strong fundamentals (rising GDP). After some time, the monetary tightening worked itself into the economy, and the market fundamentals started to worsen. After a period of plateauing rates, the stock market tumbled, and the Federal Reserve was quick to cut rates. While the Federal Reserve was cutting rates the stock market fell even further. Historically, the bottom of the stock market was in onlyafter the Federal Reserve had already cut rates significantly and the liquidity cycle started to move upwards again.In 2022, however, we have a different situation. The Federal Reserve tightened monetary policy, and the stock market depreciated because of it. That fundamental difference exists because of inflation.During the last 40 years, the overarching trend of inflation was down. Especially in the last 20 years, global Central Banks struggled to create inflation with loose monetary policy. If the economy and the financial markets start to struggle while there is no concern about material inflation or even fear of deflation, then the playbook of Central Banks becomes very easy: stimulate the economy to raise inflation and decrease unemployment.Taylor-Rule (Author)According to the Taylor Rule, the Federal Reserve had to lower interest rates (1-h) so often in the past because inflation was below the long-term inflation rate goal,and (1-g) GDP was also below the long-term production potential. Both parts of the formula demanded monetary easing.During 2020-2022 the macroeconomic circumstances changed 180 degrees. Because of several shortages, and most importantly massive fiscal stimulus, which was fully financed by expansive monetary policy, demand exploded while goods were scarce. After inflation came in hot quarter after quarter, the Federal Reserve had to raise rates into a falling stock market for the first time in 20+ years.Because of the traditionally backward-looking indicators of Central Banks (i.e. unemployment), the economy appeared red hot while inflation was clearly above the 2% target. These two macroeconomic circumstances basically guaranteed monetary tightening. A falling stock market is appreciated by the Federal Reserve because it resembles tightening financial conditions. Tightening financial conditions should decrease inflation and raise unemployment – the goals of the central bank policy during times like these.Trying to time the pivot?We are in a different situation now, though. Inflation is still way above the 2% target. But the slowdown of the global economy is getting more and more clear by the day. And many of the bubbles fueled by monetary excesses [i.e. Meme-Tech-stocks like Peleton (PTON), Palantir (PLTR), Nikola (NKLA), or Crypto (BTC) / (ETH)] have deflated 80-90% from their highs.Many investors ask themselves now: If inflation has peaked and the economy is materially slowing down, why not buy the dip in risk assets? Won’t the Fed Put be back after inflation comes down MoM?That sounds like an attractive argument. Hence, I believe the current rally could sustain for the remainder of 2022. There are finally positive news for the stock market to rally. Ultimately, however, I believe the current stock price action is nothing more than a rather violent bear market rally because of the following reasons:1. The Federal Reserve wants to make sure that inflation is dealt withDuring the speculation mania that followed the March 2020 Covid crash, any doubt about valuation levels was quickly dismissed with the “don’t fight the Fed” mantra. And speculators were right back then. If the liquidity cycle makes a big upswing, you don’t want to be caught off guard shorting stocks because of their stretched valuations. Tesla (TSLA) perma bears painfully had to learn that. But the same counts for when the liquidity cycle is in a downturn and investors are recklessly holding on to their overvalued tech stocks. Fighting the Fed in 2022 means staying invested in long-duration, high-growth, high-valuation equities. Just last week, Powell reiterated the Federal Reserve’s stance to tighten policy until something breaks. Powell seemed confident that it would be easier to put the economy into recession and then rescue it after they overtighten financial conditions. After all, nothing kills inflation like a recession.2. Unemployment is too lowWithout the labor market breaking and unemployment sharply rising, there is no reason for global Central Banks to meaningfully change the direction of their policy to an accommodative level. During the FOMC meeting, Powell made it clear that rates will likely stay higher for longer than the market currently expects. The Federal Reserve has given up on its attempt of engineering a “softish landing”. Inflation becoming entrenched in the economy is their worst fear, and with the low levels of unemployment, the Central Bank doesn’t have to balance its efforts to slow down inflation. Even after the rate hikes are over, quantitative tightening will worsen financial conditions and be a great hurdle for the stock market.Some layoffs have already started. To my belief, tech companies will be able to raise productivity by removing some unnecessary workforce from recent years, where revenue growth was highly monetarily valued, but profitability wasn’t. Facebook (FB), Amazon (AMZN), and Twitter (TWTR) have already started. Alphabet (GOOG) and Apple (AAPL) are likely to follow. If high-paid workers lose their steady income stream, they are likely to sell off some of their accumulated assets in order to have a safety cushion to rely upon. It would be typical that this selling coincides with retail capitulation and a final rise in volatility, which usually marks the low of the bear market. I don’t believe we’re at the end yet, but I don’t want to dismiss the rather orderly decline of stock prices in 2022.3. Bad news will be bad news againI think 2023 will be about the labor market and the effects of higher rates for the housing market and less about the Federal Reserve monetary policy. After all, the bulk of the rate hikes are done, and now it is about how long they can stay this elevated.

Here's a quick rundown of why I'm such a fan of each of them as long-term stocks to invest in.</p><h3>1. Etsy</h3><p>Before the COVID-19 pandemic, Etsy was growing nicely by connecting crafty makers with customers looking for something a bit more out of the ordinary than mainstream e-commerce fare. During the pandemic, e-commerce got a huge boost. But Etsy absolutely skyrocketed, growing at more than twice the rate of overall e-commerce.</p><p>It certainly helped that Etsy was a natural fit when people wanted unique face masks, but its growth has been impressive across all product categories. In the second quarter of 2022, Etsy's marketplace sales volume was up 141% over comparable pre-pandemic levels.</p><p>As you may notice throughout this list, powerful platforms get my attention. Make no mistake: Etsy is one of them. Few e-commerce companies go head-to-head with Amazon and survive. Etsy not only survived when Amazon rolled out its own handmade items platform; it won. But this could still be the early days of an excellent long-term growth story.</p><p>Because of its platform and brand strength, Etsy's market opportunity is in the hundreds of billions of dollars, and it has just started to scratch the surface. And, with the stock falling significantly in the recent growth stock downturn, now could be a great time for patient long-term investors to take a closer look.</p><h3>2. Pinterest</h3><p>Pinterest is an oasis of positivity in a social medial and scape that's grown increasingly depressing and divisive. That partially flows from what Pinterest is about, which is ideas.</p><p>People go to Pinterest to focus on things, not on other people. Whether it's building a dream deck, baking a kid's birthday cake, or updating your wardrobe, Pinterest gives people visual inspiration for the things they want to get done.</p><p>Pinterest has been beaten down in the 2022 market decline, mainly because its user base contracted a bit as pandemic restrictions were lifted around the world. However, according to the company's second quarter results, it appears that the user base has stabilized for the time being.</p><p>The most exciting thing from a long-term investor's perspective is that Pinterest has a massive opportunity when it comes to monetization of its users, especially as the company pivots away from its traditional ad-focused model and tries to find ways to incorporate e-commerce into its platform.</p><p>The pivot certainly makes sense. Pinterest is a place where people go to find things they might want to buy, and it recently hired e-commerce veteran Bill Ready as its new CEO to help accelerate its pivot.</p><p>It's really easy to envision how seamless advertising, lead generation, and product placement could be when people are already there for suggestions. The monetization potential is especially massive internationally, which accounts for 80% of its user base but just a tiny fraction of its revenue.</p><h3>3. Sea Limited</h3><p>Sea Limited is rapidly growing into a powerhouse in Southeast Asia. The company operates the large Garena digital gaming platform, but the most promising growth drivers are its Shopee e-commerce platform and SeaMoney digital payments platform, both of which have been growing rapidly. In the second quarter of 2022, while Garena saw a revenue decline, Shopee revenue grew 51% year over year, while SeaMoney (the newest part of the business) grew by a staggering 214%.</p><p>With Garena, Shopee, and SeaMoney, Sea Limited has three fast-growing and high-potential businesses. It is quickly becoming a leader in all three, both in its home region and in other key markets around the world, including Latin America, where it is making especially impressive progress. Although its two most exciting businesses are in the earlier stages, I consider it one of the best long-term stock investments for international exposure.</p><h3>4. Shopify</h3><p>Shopify operates a platform designed to allow businesses of all sizes to sell their products online, with a particular focus on empowering smaller businesses. Shopify offers a subscription plan starting at $29 per month for businesses, and it also offers many adjacent services that help businesses operate smoothly.</p><p>Shopify's "one-stop shop" approach to enabling e-commerce has turned it into a powerhouse. It now has more e-commerce sales flowing through its ecosystem than any other company besides Amazon. However, Shopify could be just getting started. The platform has generated just over $5 billion in revenue over the past four quarters, but this is just a fraction of its estimated $153 billion (and growing) market opportunity as more retailers shift their focus to online sales.</p><p>E-commerce is still in the relatively early stages, making up less than 15% of retail sales in the U.S. With shares down sharply in the recent market downturn due to recession fears and signs of a slowdown in consumer spending, Shopify looks like a clear choice for the best stocks to buy in 2022.</p><h3>5. Block</h3><p>Block, formerly known as Square, has evolved from a niche payment processing hardware company to a massive financial ecosystem for merchants and individuals. On the merchant side, Block processed about $188 billion in payment volume over the past four quarters, and it also offers a suite of adjacent services for businesses.</p><p>On the individual side, Block has the Cash App, with 47 million users, as well as capabilities that include person-to-person money transfers, direct deposits and debit cards, the ability to buy and sell stocks and Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC), and much more.</p><p>Block also recently acquired music app Tidal, plus the Afterpay buy-now, pay-later platform. As its ecosystem evolves, the business should only get stronger.</p><h3>6. MercadoLibre</h3><p>One of my favorite long-term stock investments in the market, MercadoLibre is often referred to as the Amazon of Latin America, and for good reason. The company operates ane-commercemarketplace that has a dominant presence in some of the most populous nations in the region, including Brazil and Argentina.</p><p>However, there's a lot more to MercadoLibre. It operates a fast-growing payments platform called Mercado Pago, a logistics service known as Mercado Envios, a business lending platform, and more. The marketplace saw $8.6 billion in merchandise volume in the second quarter of 2022, and Mercado Pago processed more than $120 billion in annualized volume, with about two-thirds coming from outside the company's e-commerce platform. Both are growing rapidly. And don't overlook Mercado Credito, the company's young but fast-growing lending business. Mercado Credito has more than tripled in size over the past year alone, and has $2.7 billion of outstanding loan balances.</p><p>MercadoLibre isn't just the Amazon of Latin America -- it's the Amazon, PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL), Square, Shopify, and more, all rolled into one, and it's at a much earlier stage of growth. In fact, MercadoLibre does just a tiny fraction of Amazon's merchandise volume and PayPal's payment volume despite having leading market shares in Brazil, Argentina, and more. E-commerce and cashless payment adoption are still in their early innings, and MercadoLibre could be a major long-term beneficiary.</p><h3>7. Intuitive Surgical</h3><p>Robot-assisted surgery beats the shaky hands of humans. That general thesis hasn't changed much from when I first noticed Intuitive Surgical stock in 2005. The da Vinci surgical system is the clear market leader, and the "razors and blades" model helps it generate a recurring stream of revenue as its systems are used to perform procedures.</p><p>Intuitive Surgical is dominant in its space, and it has lots of room to grow as its surgical systems increase in adoption and the number of its supported procedures increases over time. This is particularly true in many international markets, where the implementation of robot-assisted surgery could be a long-tailed growth catalyst for this excellent business for decades to come.</p><h3>8. Disney</h3><p>The House of Mouse is the all-weather tires of a portfolio. The pandemic hurt its theme park and movie businesses but helped the Disney+ streaming service, which has grown into a powerhouse years earlier than Disney expected. In fact, Disney+ now has over 150 million subscribers less than three years after launching, while the company's initial<i>five-year</i>goal called for 60-90 million.</p><p>In 2022, demand for Disney's theme parks and movies is coming back stronger than ever. In fact, revenue is now <i>greater</i> than in comparable pre-pandemic times in Disney's parks due to initiatives that have driven higher per-guest spending. On the streaming side, Disney+ has been a massive success, and the company is rightly focusing on expanding it and the company's other streaming platforms, Hulu and ESPN+.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Best Stocks To Invest In: September 2022</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\">\nBest Stocks To Invest In: September 2022\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-21 10:16 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/top-stocks-to-buy/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>There are literally thousands of publicly traded companies you can invest in, not to mention the many exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and mutual funds you can buy, so it's not surprising many investors ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/top-stocks-to-buy/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"ISRG":"直觉外科公司","PINS":"Pinterest, Inc.","ETSY":"Etsy, Inc.","SE":"Sea Ltd","MELI":"MercadoLibre","SHOP":"Shopify Inc","DIS":"迪士尼","SQ":"Block"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/top-stocks-to-buy/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1163713402","content_text":"There are literally thousands of publicly traded companies you can invest in, not to mention the many exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and mutual funds you can buy, so it's not surprising many investors don't know where to begin. And, with the recent market downturn, especially when it comes to growth stocks, there are plenty of stocks trading for significantly less than they were just six months or a year ago.But what are the best stocks to buy in 2022? Although I don't have a crystal ball that tells me what stocks will deliver the best returns, I've tried to do the next best thing. In this article, I'll discuss 10 stocks that I think could be great buys in 2022 for long-term investors looking to put their money to work.Image source: Getty Images.Before we get to the stocks, let's acknowledge three caveats:Choosing the best stocks to buy today heavily depends on your personal financial situation. To get a feel for where you stand, read our guide on how to invest in stocks. It walks you through topics such as establishing an emergency fund, allocating assets, and when it makes sense to buy stocks.I like these stocks as long-term investments. I have absolutely no idea what they'll do over the next few weeks or months. In fact, if inflation stays elevated longer than expected or the U.S. falls into a recession, it's entirely possible that most or all of these could decline in the near term.Although I ensured some variety, the list below isn't meant to be a fully diversified portfolio. Instead, they're my highest-conviction long term stocks to invest in for 2022 and beyond. The best one-step way to diversify your holdings is to build the core of your portfolio around something like the Vanguard Total World Stock Index Fund ETF (NYSEMKT:VT).Let's get to my list of the 10 best stocks to buy now and hold for the long term, from smallest market cap to largest, followed by the summary buy thesis for each one.The top 10 stocks for 2022Etsy (NASDAQ:ETSY), $14 billionPinterest (NYSE:PINS), $15 billionSea Limited (NYSE:SE), $34 billionShopify (NYSE:SHOP), $38 billionBlock (NYSE:SQ), $39 billionMercadoLibre (NASDAQ:MELI), $43 billionIntuitive Surgical (NASDAQ:ISRG), $73 billionWalt Disney (NYSE:DIS), $204 billionBerkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B), $622 billionAmazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), $1.31 trillion(Market caps as of September 2, 2022, rounded to the nearest billion.)Elevator pitches for each stockNow that you've seen my top 10 best stocks to buy now, you may be wondering why I picked each company. Here's a quick rundown of why I'm such a fan of each of them as long-term stocks to invest in.1. EtsyBefore the COVID-19 pandemic, Etsy was growing nicely by connecting crafty makers with customers looking for something a bit more out of the ordinary than mainstream e-commerce fare. During the pandemic, e-commerce got a huge boost. But Etsy absolutely skyrocketed, growing at more than twice the rate of overall e-commerce.It certainly helped that Etsy was a natural fit when people wanted unique face masks, but its growth has been impressive across all product categories. In the second quarter of 2022, Etsy's marketplace sales volume was up 141% over comparable pre-pandemic levels.As you may notice throughout this list, powerful platforms get my attention. Make no mistake: Etsy is one of them. Few e-commerce companies go head-to-head with Amazon and survive. Etsy not only survived when Amazon rolled out its own handmade items platform; it won. But this could still be the early days of an excellent long-term growth story.Because of its platform and brand strength, Etsy's market opportunity is in the hundreds of billions of dollars, and it has just started to scratch the surface. And, with the stock falling significantly in the recent growth stock downturn, now could be a great time for patient long-term investors to take a closer look.2. PinterestPinterest is an oasis of positivity in a social medial and scape that's grown increasingly depressing and divisive. That partially flows from what Pinterest is about, which is ideas.People go to Pinterest to focus on things, not on other people. Whether it's building a dream deck, baking a kid's birthday cake, or updating your wardrobe, Pinterest gives people visual inspiration for the things they want to get done.Pinterest has been beaten down in the 2022 market decline, mainly because its user base contracted a bit as pandemic restrictions were lifted around the world. However, according to the company's second quarter results, it appears that the user base has stabilized for the time being.The most exciting thing from a long-term investor's perspective is that Pinterest has a massive opportunity when it comes to monetization of its users, especially as the company pivots away from its traditional ad-focused model and tries to find ways to incorporate e-commerce into its platform.The pivot certainly makes sense. Pinterest is a place where people go to find things they might want to buy, and it recently hired e-commerce veteran Bill Ready as its new CEO to help accelerate its pivot.It's really easy to envision how seamless advertising, lead generation, and product placement could be when people are already there for suggestions. The monetization potential is especially massive internationally, which accounts for 80% of its user base but just a tiny fraction of its revenue.3. Sea LimitedSea Limited is rapidly growing into a powerhouse in Southeast Asia. The company operates the large Garena digital gaming platform, but the most promising growth drivers are its Shopee e-commerce platform and SeaMoney digital payments platform, both of which have been growing rapidly. In the second quarter of 2022, while Garena saw a revenue decline, Shopee revenue grew 51% year over year, while SeaMoney (the newest part of the business) grew by a staggering 214%.With Garena, Shopee, and SeaMoney, Sea Limited has three fast-growing and high-potential businesses. It is quickly becoming a leader in all three, both in its home region and in other key markets around the world, including Latin America, where it is making especially impressive progress. Although its two most exciting businesses are in the earlier stages, I consider it one of the best long-term stock investments for international exposure.4. ShopifyShopify operates a platform designed to allow businesses of all sizes to sell their products online, with a particular focus on empowering smaller businesses. Shopify offers a subscription plan starting at $29 per month for businesses, and it also offers many adjacent services that help businesses operate smoothly.Shopify's \"one-stop shop\" approach to enabling e-commerce has turned it into a powerhouse.

BlockBlock, formerly known as Square, has evolved from a niche payment processing hardware company to a massive financial ecosystem for merchants and individuals. On the merchant side, Block processed about $188 billion in payment volume over the past four quarters, and it also offers a suite of adjacent services for businesses.On the individual side, Block has the Cash App, with 47 million users, as well as capabilities that include person-to-person money transfers, direct deposits and debit cards, the ability to buy and sell stocks and Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC), and much more.Block also recently acquired music app Tidal, plus the Afterpay buy-now, pay-later platform. As its ecosystem evolves, the business should only get stronger.6. MercadoLibreOne of my favorite long-term stock investments in the market, MercadoLibre is often referred to as the Amazon of Latin America, and for good reason. The company operates ane-commercemarketplace that has a dominant presence in some of the most populous nations in the region, including Brazil and Argentina.However, there's a lot more to MercadoLibre.

You'll have more Tesla shares after the stock split</h2><p>A stock split increases the number of shares outstanding, giving investors more shares in their account for every one share they previously owned.</p><p>After a stock split, the value of each share will be reduced to a lower price. This makes it easy for more retail investors to get their hands on a whole share of stock, because the stock price appears more affordable. If you're already an investor, your shares will be split into bite-sized pieces, but the total value of your shares will not increase.</p><p>Let's say you have one share of Tesla's stock. On the day of the 3-for-1 stock split, the company will grant you two additional shares. Each share in your portfolio would be valued at one-third the price of the original share. If one Tesla share is trading at $900 before the stock split, you'll have three Tesla shares valued at $300 each after the stock split. As you can see, the total value of your shares is still $900.</p><p>Here's how many shares you will have after the stock split based on the number of shares you have on record as of Aug. 17. All you have to do is look at the number of shares you have now, and multiply the total by three. That's how many shares you'll have after a stock split.</p><ul><li>1 share of Tesla stock = 3 shares</li><li>2 shares of Tesla stock = 6 shares</li><li>3 shares of Tesla stock = 9 shares</li><li>4 shares of Tesla stock = 12 shares</li><li>5 shares of Tesla stock = 15 shares</li></ul><h2>2. You won't have to report the stock split itself on your tax return</h2><p>A stock split doesn't increase a company's market capitalization or increase the value of your shares. You may have more shares in your account, but the original value of your shares remains the same. Therefore, a stock split in itself is not considered a taxable event. There are no IRS reporting requirements you need to adhere to during tax time.</p><h2>3. You may have to pay taxes if you sell your extra Tesla shares</h2><p>Although a stock split in itself is not taxable, selling stock for a profit after a stock split can lead to taxes. This is the case if you sell stock in a taxable brokerage account. Earning money in the stock market leads to capital gains taxes. You will be taxed at the short-term or long-term capital gains tax rate, depending on how long you had your Tesla stock before selling it. Your brokerage firm will send you the details of your transaction, so you can properly report the sale to the IRS during tax time.</p><p>Stock splits can be exciting and pain-free in the eyes of the investor. You wake up to more shares in your account after a stock split, and you don't have to worry about any tax obligations. But as soon as you decide to sell, you'll need to report your moves to the IRS. Before you make a move after a stock split, pay attention to the impact it will have on your portfolio and taxes, so you won't be surprised later.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Things You Should Know About the Tesla Stock Split</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Things You Should Know About the Tesla Stock Split\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-23 22:12 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/22/3-things-you-should-know-about-the-tesla-stock-spl/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Tesla's 3-for-1 stock split proposal won shareholder approval at the 2022 annual shareholders' meeting this month.

Indeed, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), with its 0.0945% expense ratio, is Bridgewater's largest holding.</p><p>The fund's second-largest holding is<i>also</i>an ETF.

Analysts' consensus recommendation stands at Hold, per S&P Global Market Intelligence.</p><p>PayPal Holdings</p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$305.5 billion</li><li><b>Billionaire investor:</b>Dorsey Asset Management</li><li><b>Percent of portfolio:</b>11.8%</li></ul><p>Digital mobile payments and the expansion of cashless transactions are one of the hottest areas of growth in financial tech. And although the sector offers no shortage of promising new names, old-timer<b>PayPal Holdings</b>(PYPL, $260.02) still gets plenty of analyst – and billionaire investor – love.</p><p>Explosive growth in mobile transactions, the monetization of its Venmo property and incremental revenue growth in its Xoom business all help make for a compelling bull case on PYPL, analysts say.</p><p>\"Simply put, PayPal should continue to benefit from the secular shift to e-commerce that should drive a roughly 20% revenue compound annual growth rate (CAGR), which, coupled with margin expansion and capital allocation (mergers & acquisitions plus stock buybacks), should result in an earnings CAGR north of 20% over the next several years,\" writes Raymond James analyst John Davis, who rates the stock at Outperform (the equivalent of Buy).</p><p>Dorsey Asset Management, with $1.3 billion in AUM, embraces the bull case on PYPL in a big way. The Chicago-based hedge fund increased its stake in PayPal by 81%, or 209,025 shares, in Q1. Its total holdings of 465,266 shares, worth $113 million as of March 31, comprises 11.8% of its stock investments.</p><p>That's up from 7.9% of the portfolio three months ago. PYPL, which Dorsey has owned since the second quarter of 2018, is now its fifth-largest position.</p><p>Analysts' consensus recommendation on the stock stands at Buy, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence.</p><p>Howard Hughes</p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$5.8 billion</li><li><b>Billionaire investor:</b>Bill Ackman (Pershing Square Capital)</li><li><b>Percent of portfolio:</b>12.1%</li></ul><p>No one doubts Bill Ackman's investing acumen. His Pershing Square Capital hedge fund has allowed the investor to amass a personal fortune of $3 billion, per Forbes.</p><p>And he's never been one to shy away from the media. So his increasing stake in<b>Howard Hughes Corp.</b>(HHC, $105.83) is far from a state secret. Indeed, Ackman has owned shares in the master-planned community developer since it was spun off from General Growth Properties in 2010.</p><p>Given Ackman's propensity for being anactivist investor, his latest purchase is eyebrow-raising news, nonetheless.</p><p>The hedge-fund billionaire increased his stake in HHC by 23%, or 2.6 million shares, in Q1. Pershing Square's stake of 13.5 million shares was worth $1.3 billion at the first quarter's end.</p><p>Most notably, Ackman now holds almost a quarter of HHC's shares outstanding. That makes the hedge fund the company's largest investor by a wide margin. Asset manager Vanguard, at No. 2, owns just 10.8% of HHC.</p><p>Meanwhile, HHC, at 12.1% of its portfolio, is now Pershing Square Capital's sixth-largest position.</p><p>For those keeping score at home, HHC stock has doubled over the past 52 weeks vs. a gain of about 38% for the S&P 500. For the year-to-date, it's up by more than a third. That compares with the broader market's gain of about 12% so far this year.</p><p>Only three analysts cover HHC, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence. One rates it at Strong Buy, while the other two say Buy.</p><p>Lowe's</p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$137.7 billion</li><li><b>Billionaire investor:</b>Two Creeks Capital Management</li><li><b>Percent of portfolio:</b>12.2%</li></ul><p>Two Creeks Capital Management, a New York hedge fund with AUM of $2.8 billion, made a big addition to its stake in<b>Lowe's</b>(LOW, $194.83) in the first quarter – a move most analysts would regard as wise.</p><p>The nation's second-largest home improvement retailer after Home Depot (HD) benefited greatly from the work-from-home/stuck-at-home reality of pandemic life. Analysts say many of the do-it-yourself habits consumers adopted during COVID times are here to stay. Lowe's is also being aided by the ultra-tight housing market.</p><p>The Street gives LOW a consensus recommendation of Buy. Argus Research, which counts itself in the Buy camp, says Lowe's has several strong tailwinds behind it.</p><p>\"We believe that the major drivers of post-pandemic sales growth remain the same,\" writes Argus Research analyst Christopher Graja. \"There has been significant underinvestment in housing. About 70% of U.S. homes are more than 25 years old and likely in need of upgrades and repairs. Millennials are starting families.\"</p><p>Income investors know the power of Lowe's dividend over the longer haul. The Dividend Aristocrat has paid a cash distribution every quarter since going public in 1961, and that dividend has increased annually for almost 60 years.</p><p>The bullish investment thesis led Two Creeks to up its stake in this stock pick by 14%, or 132,811 shares, in Q1. The hedge fund's total stake of 1.1 million LOW shares, worth $200 million at the end of Q1, accounts for 12.2% of its portfolio, representing its third-largest holding.</p><p>Alphabet</p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$1.6 trillion</li><li><b>Billionaire investor:</b>Metropolis Capital</li><li><b>Percent of portfolio:</b>13.3%</li></ul><p>It should come as no surprise that hedge funds are big believers in Google parent<b>Alphabet</b>(GOOGL, $2,356,85). Metropolis Capital, a U.K.-based investor with $1.4 billion in AUM, is just one of about 225 hedge funds upping its stake in the internet giant in Q1.</p><p>Metropolis thinks highly enough of the search leader that it increased its stake by 22%, or 13,679 shares. The firm now holds a total of 74,868 shares worth $154.4 million, or 13.3% of its total portfolio, as of March 31.</p><p>Alphabet happens to be in good company at this hedge fund. GOOGL is Metropolis' second-largest stock pick after Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B).</p><p>If nothing else, Alphabet's pandemic performance in totality bolstered the case that GOOGL is not a one-trick pony. Its numerous other endeavors likewise shore up the case. For example, Alphabet is a key player in cloud-based services, and home to Nest Labs and self-driving car startup Waymo. Artificial intelligence, machine learning and virtual reality are other areas of heavy investment.</p><p>\"We continue to favor Google as a core large-cap growth holding given the strong digital advertising backdrop, continued strength from Cloud, ongoing share repurchases (with the newly authorized $50 billion program) and a reasonable valuation,\" writes Canaccord Genuity analyst Maria Ripps (Buy).</p><p>Analysts' consensus recommendation on the name stands at Strong Buy. Of the 45 analysts issuing opinions on the stock tracked by S&P Global Market Intelligence, 32 rate it at Strong Buy, 12 say Buy and one has it at Hold.</p><p>Walt Disney</p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$324.6 billion</li><li><b>Billionaire investor:</b>Kirkoswald Asset Management</li><li><b>Percent of portfolio:</b>16.5%</li></ul><p>Coronavirus took a huge bite out of some of<b>Walt Disney's</b>(DIS, $178.65) most important businesses: namely, its theme parks and studios. But after encouraging quarterly results, analysts say business is set to bounce back in a big way.</p><p>Disneyland and other California amusement parks have reopened with restrictions. And admissions at Florida's Disney World continue to climb.</p><p>\"With mask mandates lifted and capacity constraints loosened further, we would not be surprised to see a step change in attendance in the near future,\" writes Deutsche Bank analyst Bryan Kraft (Buy).</p><p>But that's nothing compared to what DIS has on its hands in thestreaming mediawars.</p><p>Disney+ is a smashing success. The streaming platform, which launched in November 2019, has already amassed almost 100 million subscribers – a staggering rate of growth. Consider that Disney+ now has about half as many subscribers as Netflix (NFLX) – but Netflix had a roughly 12-year head start.</p><p>Kirkoswald Asset Management, a New York hedge fund with AUM of $4 billion, decided to get in on DIS asa recovery stock pickin Q1. It initiated a stake of 5,200 shares, worth almost $1 million, during the first three months of the year.</p><p>The new stake immediately made DIS its second-largest position among $5.8 million in managed securities.</p><p>Most of the Street would approve of Kirkoswald's investment. Analysts have a consensus Buy recommendation on this Dow stock.</p><p>Berkshire Hathaway</p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$661.0 billion</li><li><b>Billionaire investor:</b>Southeast Asset Advisors</li><li><b>Percent of portfolio:</b>16.8%</li></ul><p>If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.</p><p>It's hard to compete with Warren Buffett when it comes toasset allocation. As CEO and chairman of<b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>(BRK.B, $289.44), he's arguably the greatest long-term investor of all time.</p><p>So it's little wonder that so many hedge funds, large advisories and other billion-dollar-plus pools of money throw in their lots with the Oracle of Omaha.</p><p>Southeast Asset Advisors, an investment manager and hedge fund based in Thomasville, Georgia, with $1.6 billion in AUM, has been a BRK.B shareholder since 2008. Indeed, BRK.B, at 16.8% of its portfolio, is the fund's top holding.</p><p>And it's only getting bigger.</p><p>Southeast increased its stake in BRK.B by 2%, or 7,747 shares, in Q1. It now holds 365,149 shares worth $93.3 million. Only Alphabet Class C shares (GOOG) come close to the firm's BRK.B stake, accounting for 11.7% of the portfolio.</p><p>BRK.B has been an outstanding performer both in 2021 and over the past 52 weeks. The stock is up 25% for the year-to-date, essentially doubling the S&P 500's gains. And over the past year? BRK.B returned 57% vs. a price increase of less than 40% for the broad-market gauge.</p><p>Only four analysts cover BRK.B stock, per S&P Global Market Intelligence. Their consensus recommendation comes to Buy.</p><p>Alibaba</p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$580.4 billion</li><li><b>Billionaire investor:</b>Conifer Management</li><li><b>Percent of portfolio:</b>20.7%</li></ul><p>Conifer Management, a New York hedge fund with $7.7 billion in AUM, has more than a fifth of its portfolio invested in Chinese e-commerce giant<b>Alibaba</b>(BABA, $213.96).</p><p>Indeed, after upping its stake by 147%, or 884,845 shares, in Q1, BABA is Conifer's top holding. Its total stake of 1.5 million shares was worth $336.7 million at the end of the first quarter.</p><p>Conifer initiated its stake in BABA only in the final quarter of last year. To the hedge fund's credit, this stock pick is a highly defensible investment idea.</p><p>Alibaba is sometimes called the Amazon of China. There are important differences between the two, but they do share the enviable trait of being undisputed titans ine-commerce.</p><p>And like Amazon, Alibaba has never shied away from investing heavily to both build out its existing businesses and enter new ones. As a result, BABA finds itself spreading beyond its core e-commerce business into cloud computing, digital payments and more.</p><p>It also helps that BABA and investors can now move past a $2.75 billion fine imposed by Chinese regulators for violating anti-monopoly laws.</p><p>Some analysts worry about decelerating revenue in the company's cloud services business, but the majority of the Street sees recent share-price weakness as a buying opportunity.</p><p>The consensus recommendation of 49 analysts tracked by S&P Global Market Intelligence comes to Strong Buy on BABA stock.</p><p>Mastercard</p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$357.4 billion</li><li><b>Billionaire investor:</b>Valley Forge Capital Management</li><li><b>Percent of portfolio:</b>22.6%</li></ul><p>If Valley Forge Capital Management likes Visa – as noted above – it absolutely adores competitor<b>Mastercard</b>(MA, $360.58).</p><p>The Wayne, Pennsylvania-based hedge fund with $1.1 billion in AUM almost doubled its stake in this stock pick in the first quarter. And with more than a fifth of its portfolio tied up in the payments processor, Mastercard is Valley Forge's top holding.</p><p>The hedge fund bought another 665,544 shares, representing a 98% increase, in Q1, bringing its total holdings to 1.3 million shares. The position was worth $477.9 million as of March 31.</p><p>Valley Forge, which owns 0.14% of MA's shares outstanding, has been an investor in the company since 2016. It's a bet that appears to have done quite well. Mastercard stock's five-year total return – price appreciation plus dividends – comes to 30.8%, according to Morningstar data. That beats its sector by 5.7 percentage points and leads the broader market by 13.4 percentage points.</p><p>Like Visa, Mastercard has relentless growth in digital mobile payments and other cashless transactions at its back.</p><p>\"Mastercard is a key beneficiary of the long-term secular shift toward electronic forms of payments, and that new technology is helping accelerate the shift,\" writes William Blair analyst Robert Napoli (Outperform)</p><p>And, just like Visa, MA has a lot of fans on the Street. Analysts' consensus recommendation stands at Buy.</p><p>Facebook</p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$932.1 billion</li><li><b>Billionaire investor:</b>Altarock Partners</li><li><b>Percent of portfolio:</b>24.4%</li></ul><p>There's a strong bull case to be made for<b>Facebook</b>(FB, $328.73), the social media giant that forms a digital-ad duopoly with Google. Just ask Altarock Partners.</p><p>This hedge fund, based in Beverly, Massachusetts, with AUM of $3.1 billion, has almost a quarter of its portfolio socked away in Facebook stock. After buying another 465,800 shares, a 27% increase, in Q1, the hedge fund is sitting on 2.2 million shares worth $641.4 million as of March 31.</p><p>That makes FB Altarock's second-largest holding.</p><p>And just who is at No. 1?</p><p>None other than Google parent Alphabet, which commands 25.1% of Altarock's investment portfolio.</p><p>The hedge fund first bought FB in the fourth quarter of last year, so it's building up its position on the stock pick pretty rapidly. And well it should, if analysts are right about this name.</p><p>The Street's consensus recommendation on FB stands at Strong Buy, as analysts forecast the company to deliver truly impressive profit growth for some time.</p><p>\"We believe Facebook's share gains during the pandemic and new initiatives in e-commerce can drive many years of above-market growth,\" writes Stifel analyst John Egbert (Buy). \"We are comfortable with the potential outcomes of antitrust inquiries and believe FB shares offer investors a rare combination of growth and value relative to its peers.\"</p><p>Seagen</p><ul><li><b>Market value:</b>$28.2 billion</li><li><b>Billionaire investor:</b>Felix and Julian Baker (Baker Bros. Advisors)</li><li><b>Percent of portfolio:</b>29.7%</li></ul><p><b>Seagen</b>(SGEN, $155.35), a biotechnology firm specializing in oncology treatments, couldn't get a bigger vote of confidence than being the top holding of Baker Bros. Advisors.</p><p>This New York-based hedge fund with $35.8 billion in AUM is led by billionaire biotech investors Julian and Felix Baker. The brothers may keep a low profile, but they're plenty famous in the world ofbiotech stocks. A series of successful investments have allowed the Bakers to build an estimated combined fortune of about $4 billion, according to Forbes.</p><p>And judging by their latest regulatory filings, the brothers have great expectations for Seagen, too. The stock pick accounts for nearly 30% of the total value of the Baker Bros.' holdings, up from 28.5% three months ago.</p><p>The increase stems in part from Baker Bros. buying another 347,745 shares in SGEN in the first quarter of 2021. The fund's total holdings of 47.6 million shares were worth more than $7 billion at the end of Q1.</p><p>The stake gives Baker Bros. ownership of 26.3% of SGEN's shares outstanding, which makes it the biotech company's largest shareholder by a wide margin. The second-largest investor – Capital Research and Management – holds only 8.6% of SGEN's shares outstanding.</p><p>The views and opinions expressed herein are the views and opinions of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of Nasdaq, Inc.</p><p>TRENDING TOPICS</p><p>TRENDING ARTICLES</p>","source":"lsy1603171495471","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>30 Top Stock Picks That Billionaires Love</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\">\n30 Top Stock Picks That Billionaires Love\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-02 11:34 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/30-top-stock-picks-that-billionaires-love-2021-06-01><strong>Nasdaq</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>It's always interesting to see what billionaire investors are doing with their money.

Sure, you can't match their gains simply by copying every single one of their stock picks, but it can still be helpful (and fruitful) to know what they've been up to.Consider that the billionaires, hedge funds and big-time advisories listed below have a great deal at stake. And their resources for research, as well as their intimate connections to insiders and others, can give them unique insight into their stock picks.Studying which stocks they're chasing with their capital (or whichstocks the billionaires are selling off, for that matter) can be an edifying exercise for retail investors.After all, there's a reason the rich get richer.Here are 30 of the most recent top stock picks from the billionaire class.In each case, at least one billionaire – be it a person, hedge fund or advisory – has a substantial stake and/or added to its holdings. In most cases, these stocks are owned by multiple billionaire investors and billionaire investor firms. And while several of these investments are popular blue chips, others keep a much lower profile.Either way, the smart money isn't kidding around when it comes to these stock picks.Prices are as of May 28. Data is courtesy of S&P Global Market Intelligence, WhaleWisdom.com and regulatory filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Stocks are ranked in reverse order of their weight in the selected billionaire investor's equity portfolio.WalmartMarket value:$400.0 billionBillionaire investor:Ray Dalio (Bridgewater Associates)Percent of portfolio:4.3%Ordinarily, we look for stocks that account for at least 5% of a billionaire investor's portfolio before including them on this list, but Bridgewater Associates' interest inWalmart(WMT, $142.03) is sort of a special case.Legendary investor Ray Dalio's massive hedge fund – it has $223 billion in assets under management (AUM) – has nearly 11% of its portfolio sitting in an S&P 500 index fund. Indeed, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), with its 0.0945% expense ratio, is Bridgewater's largest holding.The fund's second-largest holding isalsoan ETF. The Vanguard Emerging Markets ETF (VWO) accounts for 5.1% of the hedge fund's total portfolio value.So it's something of a feather in Walmart's cap that the world's largest retailer and Dow Jones Industrial Average component happens to be tops among Dalio's actual stock picks.Indeed, in the first quarter of 2021, Bridgewater upped its WMT stake by 16%, or 512,347 shares. The total stake of 3.6 million shares, worth $487.8 million at the end of Q1, now accounts for 4.3% of Bridgewater's total portfolio value.Note well that Dalio, whose net worth is estimated at $20.3 billion, according to Forbes, is a big fan of Dow stocks and ETFs. In addition to WMT at No. 3, Bridegwater's top 10 holdings include stakes in Procter & Gamble (PG), Coca-Cola (KO) and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), as well as the SPDR Gold Trust ETF (GLD) and the iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (IEMG).Amazon.comMarket value:$1.6 trillionBillionaire investor:Stephen Mandel (Lone Pine Capital)Percent of portfolio:5.4%Hedge-fund legend Stephen Mandel stepped back from managing investments at Lone Pine Capital a couple years back, but he remains a managing director at the firm, and it still runs very much in his image.That's probably a good thing, given that Mandel's investing acumen allowed him to accumulate a net worth of nearly $4 billion, per Forbes.Lone Pine – based in the hedge-fund capital of the world, Greenwich, Connecticut – lists more than $27.5 billion in managed securities. Lately, it has been putting more cash to work in big-nametechnology stocks, and few get higher accolades from Wall Street analysts thanAmazon.com(AMZN, $3,223.07).Indeed, analysts say AMZN is one of thebest Nasdaq stocks you can buy, giving it a high conviction consensus recommendation of Strong Buy. That's due in no small part to the fact that they expect Amazon to generate average annual earnings per share growth of almost 35% over the next three to five years – this despite the fact that the e-commerce giant is already a $1.6 trillion company.Lone Pine upped its bet on AMZN by 87%, or 224,618 shares, in the first quarter, bringing its total holdings to 481,744 shares. That stake, which was worth $1.5 billion at the end of Q1, accounts for 5.4% of Lone Pine's total portfolio value, making it fifth among the hedge fund's stock picks.DanaherMarket value:$182.7 billionBillionaire investor:Tran Capital ManagementPercent of portfolio:5.4%Tran Capital Management, a hedge fund based in San Rafael, California, is incrementally more bullish on the life sciences industry.Tran, with $1.1 billion in AUM, added 2,001 shares to its stake inDanaher(DHR, $256.14), which makes a variety of instruments and diagnostics equipment to support medical, industrial and commercial processes.Tran now holds a total of 267,376 shares, which were worth $60.1 million at the end of Q1. The DHR stake is Tran's fourth-largest holding, accounting for 5.4% of its stock portfolio value. The hedge fund has been an investor in DHR since the first quarter of 2014, though even with the latest purchase, it still currently owns just 0.04% of the company's shares outstanding.The Street is likewise bullish on this healthcare name, which stands to benefit from the pharmaceutical industry's ongoing efforts against the novel coronavirus. Indeed, analysts' consensus recommendation on DHR comes to Buy, according to S&PGlobal MarketIntelligence.\"We believe that Danaher is well positioned to help biopharma companies develop new medicines, including treatments and vaccines for COVID-19,\" writes Argus Research analyst David Toung, who rates DHR at Buy. \"We expect recent strong customer demand to be sustained over the remainder of 2021.\"Abbott LaboratoriesMarket value:$207.3 billionBillionaire investor:Polen Capital ManagementPercent of portfolio:5.6%Polen Capital Management's top four stock picks are a who's who of hot-growth, mega-cap tech stocks: Facebook (FB), Microsoft (MSFT), Google-parent Alphabet's Class C shares (GOOG) and Adobe (ADBE).So it's kind of neat to see that the hedge fund's fifth-largest position is an income investor's dream.Abbott Laboratories(ABT, $116.65) is as stalwart a divided payer as they come. It's a member of the S&P Dividend Aristocrats, an index ofdividend stocks that have increased their payouts annually for at least 25 consecutive years.ABT, which manufactures a wide variety of healthcare goods, such as branded generic drugs, medical devices and nutrition and diagnostic products, has hiked its dividend for 49 years and counting. The last increase came in December: a whopping 25% improvement to 45 cents per share.Polen, a hedge fund based in Boca Raton, Florida, with AUM of more than $46 billion, has owned a stake in ABT since the third quarter of 2019. Most recently, it upped its position by 1%, or 220,118 shares. Polen's total of 20.7 million shares was worth $2.5 billion at the end of Q1, and accounted for 5.6% of its portfolio value.Importantly, Polen owns 1.2% of Abbott Lab's shares outstanding, putting it among the company's 15 largest investors.UnitedHealth GroupMarket value:$388.7 billionBillionaire investor:Allen Investment ManagementPercent of portfolio:5.7%UnitedHealth Group(UNH, $411.92) is a hedge-fund favorite, and Wall Street gives it high marks too.As the largest health insurer by both market value and revenue – and a member of the Dow Industrials to boot – UNH is sort of a must-have stock for institutional investors seeking broad exposure to the healthcare sector.Meanwhile, analysts' consensus recommendation on the name comes to Buy. Of the 27 analysts covering the stock tracked by S&P Global Market Intelligence, 16 rate UNH at Strong Buy, six say Buy, three have it at Hold and one calls it a Sell.\"With the increase in Covid-19 vaccinations, we expect medical utilization patterns to return to normal levels, while at the same time we anticipate higher utilizations resulting from missed medical visits and delayed electives,\" writes CFRA Research analyst Sel Hardy, who rates the stock at Strong Buy.So it's only fitting that Allen Investment Management, a New York hedge fund with $9.3 billion in AUM, upped its stake in UNH by 2%, or 21,086 shares, during the first quarter.At 5.7% of the portfolio, UNH is the fund's third-largest position, trailing only Allen stock picks Alphabet Class C shares and Facebook. The hedge fund's stake of 990,525 shares was worth $368.5 million at the end of the first quarter.Gaming and Leisure PropertiesMarket value:$10.8 billionBillionaire investor:Gates Capital ManagementPercent of portfolio:6.0%Gates Capital Management is a fan of one of Wall Street pros' favorite Nasdaq stocks. The New York hedge fund with $3 billion in AUM upped its stake inGaming and Leisure Properties(GLPI, $46.36) by 35%, or more than 1 million shares, during the first quarter.Gates Capital now holds 3.9 million shares in thisreal estate investment trust (REIT)– a stake worth $165.6 million as of March 31.Analysts like this casino real estate play thanks to both a snazzy dividend yield and attractive growth prospects coming out of the pandemic. The company, whose properties include the Belle of Baton Rouge and Argosy Casino Riverside in Missouri, collected 100% of its rents in 2020.Mizuho Securities initiated coverage of Gaming and Leisure Properties at Buy in late March, citing its unique attributes in an industry set to benefit from a recovery in consumer spending and gaming revenue.\"GLPI is the most diversified of the three Gaming REITs, with strong underlying tenant credit and structural lease enhancements, resulting in a lower-risk platform that we believe is under-appreciated by the market,\" writes Mizuho analyst Haendel St. Juste.Analysts' consensus recommendation on the name stands at Strong Buy, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence.The bull case for GLPI makes it easy to understand why Gates Capital increased its exposure to a stock it first bought back in 2013. The hedge fund holds 1.7% of GLPI's shares outstanding, making it the REIT's 12th largest investor.S&P GlobalMarket value:$91.4 billionBillionaire investor:Chris Hohn (TCI Fund Management)Percent of portfolio:6.0%Activist investor Chris Hohn has made quite a name for himself with The Children's Investment Fund Management – more commonly known as TCI Fund Management. Indeed, the London-based investor has parlayed his many stock picks into a personal net worth of $5.9 billion, per Forbes.TCI, with more than $34 billion in managed securities, made a handful of moves in Q1, and none was bigger in percentage terms than its doubling down (and then some) onS&P Global(SPGI, $379.47).Hohn increased the fund's stake in SPGI by 147% – by far its largest addition of the quarter in percentage terms – adding 3.5 million shares. TCI now owns 5.9 million shares in the company behind S&P Global Ratings, S&P Global Market Intelligence and S&P Global Platts.The stake, worth $2.1 billion at the end of Q1, accounts for 6.0% of TCI's portfolio value, and gives Hohn ownership of 2.4% of S&P's shares outstanding. That makes TCI the company's sixth-largest shareholder.Although most investors probably know S&P for its majority stake in S&P Dow Jones Indices – which maintains the benchmark S&P 500 index and the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average – it's also a central player in corporate and financial analytics, information and research.Dedicated long-term income investors probably already know thatSPGI happens to be a Dividend Aristocrat. The company has increased its dividend annually for nearly half a century.AbbVieMarket value:$199.9 billionBillionaire investor:Avidity Partners ManagementPercent of portfolio:6.3%AbbVie(ABBV, $113.20) was spun off from the above-mentioned Abbott Laboratories in 2013. It too, is a Dividend Aristocrat, having lifted its dividend annually for almost half a century.Consumers best know the pharma firm for Humira, a blockbuster drug for rheumatoid arthritis that has been approved for numerous other ailments. AbbVie also makes cancer drug Imbruvica, as well as testosterone replacement therapy AndroGel.Avidity Partners Management, a Dallas hedge fund with AUM of $6.2 billion, focuses primarily on stock picks in the healthcare sector, and it has been a fan of AbbVie since the fourth quarter of 2019. Most recently, it upped its stake in the pharma giant by 53%, or 721,200 shares. Avidity now holds a total of nearly 2.1 million shares in ABBV, worth $225 million at the end of Q1.At 6.3% of its equity portfolio, AbbVie is Avidity's single largest position. That's up from 4.7% about three months ago.The Street is a solid fan of ABBV, too. Analysts' consensus recommendation stands at Buy, with 11 Strong Buy ratings, six Buys and five Hold calls. One analyst has a Sell recommendation on the stock.\"AbbVie is developing new growth drivers to help offset slowing sales of Humira, still its largest product by revenue,\" writes Argus Research analyst David Toung, who rates the stock at Buy. \"We expect continued strong growth from the oncology portfolio and newer immunology drugs in 2021.\"Applied MaterialsMarket value:$126.2 billionBillionaire investor:Bristol Gate Capital PartnersPercent of portfolio:6.3%Bristol Gate Capital Partners, a Toronto hedge fund with AUM of $1.7 billion, initiated a position inApplied Materials(AMAT, $138.13) in the first quarter.And what a commitment it was. The new purchase of 783,931 shares, worth $105 million at the end of Q1, vaulted the position to Bristol Gate's top holding, accounting for 6.3% of its portfolio.Applied Materials, which provides manufacturing equipment and technology to the semiconductor industry, is an allied play on the global chip shortage. Indeed, relentless demand for semiconductors from a wide range of industries has helped AMAT stock jump about 60% for the year-to-date.The Street is heavily bullish on the name, too. Analysts' consensus recommendation stands at Buy, according to S&P Global Market Research. The high opinion stems in part from the Street's forecast for EPS to increase at an average annual rate of nearly 19% over the next three to five years.\"We believe underlying secular drivers are robust, broad-based and multi-year in nature,\" writes B. Riley analyst Craig Ellis, who rates AMAT at Buy.Johnson & JohnsonMarket value:$445.7 billionBillionaire investor:ACR Alpine Capital ResearchPercent of portfolio:6.3%ACR Alpine Capital Research, a large advisory with $2.5 billion in AUM, has been a long-time fan of blue-chipJohnson & Johnson(JNJ, $169.25). The St. Louis-based asset manager first invested in the Dow stock at the end of 2010, and it added incrementally to the position in Q1.ACR upped its stake in the multifaceted pharma giant by 1%, or 8,790 shares, bringing its total holdings to 704,842 shares. The stake, worth $115.8 million at quarter's end, is at the tail end of the advisory's top 10 stock picks, taking up 6.3% of ACR's total portfolio value.Analysts have a consensus recommendation of Buy on JNJ. Among the arguments in favor of the stock, bulls point to its strong pharmaceutical pipeline, as well as a rebound in demand for medical devices as patients undergo elective procedures put off during the pandemic.\"We expect the recovery in elective procedures and patient visit volumes to accelerate as the pandemic is starting to get under control in the U.S., which should result in a strong recovery in Medical Devices sales and solid growth in Pharma revenues,\" writes CFRA Research analyst Sel Hardy, who rates shares at Buy.Investors and analysts alike no doubt also appreciate the company's commitment to delivering income to investors. JNJ announced a 5% quarterly dividend increase in April 2021, to $1.06 per share from $1.01 per share. That marked this Dividend Aristocrat's 59th consecutive year of dividend increases.XilinxMarket value:$31.2 billionBillionaire investor:Canyon Capital AdvisorsPercent of portfolio:7.0%Canyon Capital Advisors, with AUM of $20.9 billion, has propelled founders Joshua Friedman and Mitchell Julis to Forbes' list of highest-earning hedge fund millionaires.So it's of interest that the Los Angeles-based fund significantly pared back on its two largest stock picks in Q1 – while greatly increasing its bet on chipmakerXilinx(XLNX, $127.00).In October 2020, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Xilinx announced a deal in which AMD would acquire the latter in an all-stock transaction valued at $35 billion.Canyon first bought shares in Xilinx in the fourth quarter of 2020, at which point the stake accounted for 4.6% of the fund's portfolio value. Then in Q1, Canyon upped its XLNX holdings by 89%, or 672,829 shares.The hedge fund's total stake of 1.4 million shares, worth $176.3 million at the end of Q1, now accounts for 7.0% of its portfolio value.Canyon, with ownership of 0.58% of XLNX's shares outstanding, is a top-30 stockholder in the soon-to-be-acquired company. AMD and Xilinx expect their deal to close at the end of 2021.Analysts' consensus recommendation on XLNX stands at Hold, pending the deal close. They do, however, rate AMD at Buy, and generally applaud the strategic rationale of merging the two chipmakers' complementary assets.D.R. HortonMarket value:$34.4 billionBillionaire investor:George Soros (Soros Fund Management)Percent of portfolio:7.4%Legendary hedge-fund tycoon George Soros, with an estimated net worth of $8.6 billion, per Forbes, today spends his days running Soros Fund Management.The New York-based family office – a sort of private hedge fund – has $5.3 billion in AUM, and one of its biggest stock picks is a bet on the severe shortage of new homes for sale.Soros first took a stake in homebuilderD.R. Horton(DHI, $95.29) during the first quarter of 2019, and he apparently remains bullish on the outlook. After all, the billionaire increased his DHI stake by 19%, or 703,850 shares, in the first quarter.Soros Fund Management's most recent investment makes DHI its second-largest holding, at 7.4% of the portfolio. The stake of 4.4 million shares – worth $392.8 million at the end of Q1 – equals 1.2% of the homebuilder's shares outstanding. As such, Soros Fund Management is D.R. Horton's 15th largest shareholder.With a consensus recommendation of Buy, per S&P Global Market Intelligence, the Street is also bullish on the name.\"With inventory constraints growing across the industry and buyer demand still nearly insatiable, we think DHI remains in an extraordinarily strong position to gain further market share and leverage its sector-leading scale,\" writes Raymond James analyst Buck Horne, who rates shares at Outperform (the equivalent of Buy).MicrosoftMarket value:$1.9 trillionBillionaire investor:Chase Coleman III (Tiger Global Management)Percent of portfolio:7.4%Hedge-fund legend Chase Coleman III, with a net worth of $10.3 billion, according to Forbes, upped his bet onMicrosoft(MSFT, $249.68) in the first quarter of 2021.And he did so in a compelling fashion.Coleman's Tiger Global Management ($79 billion AUM) increased its stake in MSFT by 15%, or 1.8 million shares, in the first three months of the year. The hedge fund now owns a total of 13.7 million shares, worth $3.2 billion at the end of Q1.The MSFT stake, which accounts for 7.4% of Tiger Global's portfolio value, is second only to its bet on Chinese e-commerce company JD.com (JD), which is top among Coleman's stock picks at 9.9% of the portfolio.Tiger Global first bought MSFT in the fourth quarter of 2016, and adding to the stake certainly makes sense. Wall Street analysts mostly adore this component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average.After all, MSFT – the second-largest U.S. company by market value after Apple (AAPL) – lands among the pro's11 best Nasdaq stocks you can buy. Analysts' consensus recommendation on MSFT comes to Strong Buy, with 26 Strong Buy calls, 11 Buys and one Hold rating.TeslaMarket value:$602.3 billionBillionaire investor:Ark InvestPercent of portfolio:7.6%Ark Invest features prominently in the financial news these days, thanks to the strong performance of several of its actively managed exchange-traded funds.Indeed, as Kiplinger has noted, 2020 was the year of Cathie Wood, CEO and founder of Ark Invest, who steered its then-five separate actively managed innovation-themed funds to the ranks ofthe best-performing equity ETFsof the year.In addition to ETFs, Ark offers managed accounts and other products and services aimed at high net worth investors. Thanks to the various products and services it offers, the firm has amassed more than $55 billion in AUM.So it says something when Ark's single-largest holding isTesla(TSLA, $625.22) – especially since the firm is increasing its exposure to the electric vehicle maker at an accelerating pace.Ark boosted its TSLA position by 39%, or 1.7 million shares, during the first quarter of 2021. The stake, which accounts for 7.6% of Ark Investment Management's equity portfolio, was worth nearly $4 billion at the end of Q1.It's not hard to see why Wood likes TSLA so much. Her investment approach focuses on innovation, and Tesla, led by the mercurial Elon Musk, is nothing if not innovative.ComcastMarket value:$263.4 billionBillionaire investor:Rothschild & Company Wealth Management UKPercent of portfolio:9.0%Rothschild & Company Wealth Management UK, a London-based hedge fund with $16.4 billion in AUM, is increasingly bullish onComcast(CMCSA, $57.34).Welcome to the club.The nation's largest cable company regularly makes the list ofhedge funds' favorite stock picks. That's because its combination of content, broadband, pay TV, theme parks and movies is unparalleled by rivals, and gives thisblue-chip stocka huge strategic advantage.CMCSA's diversification came in especially handy last year when the pandemic walloped theme parks, cinemas and spending on advertising.\"While the pandemic has materially impacted Comcast, the company's steady cable division continues to provide vital connectivity for its large base of 23 million subscribers,\" writes Argus Research analyst Joseph Bonner (Buy).Rothschild first bought shares in the cable operator in the first quarter of 2019, and most recently upped its bet by 2%, or 194,324 shares. The hedge fund's total holdings of 9.2 million shares, worth $500.2 million at the end of Q1, accounted for 9.0% of its portfolio. CMCSA is now Rothchild's sixth-largest position.Analysts' consensus recommendation on the stock comes to Buy, per S&P Global Market Intelligence, with 20 Strong Buy ratings, nine Buys, four Holds and one Strong Sell. The Street expects the company to deliver average annual EPS growth of nearly 16% over the next three to five years.AptivMarket value:$40.7 billionBillionaire investor:Caxton AssociatesPercent of portfolio:9.4%Billionaire philanthropist Bruce Kovner, with an estimated net worth of $6.6 billion, retired from his management role at Caxton Associates a decade ago. But the hedge fund he founded continues to rake in the bucks with his global macroeconomic trading strategies.Indeed, Caxton last year closed its flagship fund to new money after posting record 40% gains during the pandemic. And the firm shows no signs of slowing down.Caxton, with AUM of $25.7 billion, has ownedAptiv(APTV, $150.42) since the first quarter of 2019, but it really went all in earlier this year.Caxton upped its stake in APTV by 61%, or 285,618 shares. Indeed, the purchase made APTV the fund's top stock pick, accounting for 9.4% of the portfolio, up from 4.2% three months ago. Caxton's 747,843 shares were worth $103.1 million at the end of Q1.Shares in Aptiv, which makes safety, connectivity and green technology for vehicles, have essentially doubled over the past 52 weeks, and analysts say they have more room to run.\"Aptiv indeed is not only benefitting from accelerating industry adoption of vehicle electrification, advanced driver-assistance systems, and connected vehicle technologies, but also achieving dominant win rates in several of these areas based on its complete system knowledge, and software-based flexible architectures,\" writes Deutsche Bank analyst Emmanuel Rosner (Buy).AdobeMarket value:$241.2 billionBillionaire investor:Atalan Capital PartnersPercent of portfolio:9.6%Atalan Capital Partners, a New York hedge fund with AUM of $2 billion, boosted its stake inAdobe(ADBE, $504.58) in Q1, which vaulted the software company into the No. 2 spot among its stock picks.Atalan increased its holdings by 38%, or 82,000 shares, in Q1, lifting its total stake to 295,000 shares worth $140.2 million as of March 31. The position accounts for 9.6% of the portfolio.Atalan first picked up ADBE in the second quarter of 2020, which was not the best timing. Shares are up just about 16% since June 30 of last year, lagging the S&P 500 by roughly 20 percentage points.That's not to say ADBE stock won't continue to be a winner in the longer run. Analysts tend to be heavily bullish on the name, thanks to its dominance in its field. After all, Adobe is the undisputed leader in making software for designers and other creative types. Its software arsenal includes Photoshop, Premiere Pro for video editing and Dreamweaver for website design, among others.\"As a result of its early-mover position and strategic M&A transactions, Adobe has established itself as the unchallenged leader in Creative software,\" writes Stifel analyst Jeffrey Parker Lane (Buy). \"We view Adobe as one of the most compelling investment cases in our coverage areas.\"The Street's consensus recommendation stands at Buy, with an annual EPS growth forecast of more than 15% over the next three to five years.Thermo Fisher ScientificMarket value:$184.5 billionBillionaire investor:Cryder Capital PartnersPercent of portfolio:9.7%Thermo Fisher Scientific(TMO, $469.50), is sometimes called the \"Amazon of the healthcare industry\" because of its wide-ranging portfolio of life sciences products, analytics and laboratory instruments.As such, it has been highly active in the fight against COVID-19, which in turn has raised its profile and investor interest. And although TMO has been a holding of Cryder Capital Partners since 2015, the hedge fund remains an incremental buyer.London-based Cryder Capital, with $1 billion in AUM, lifted its stake in TMO by 2%, or 6,398 shares, during the first three months of the year. The hedge fund now holds a total of 298,587 shares, worth $136.3 million as of March 31. Despite a high weight of 9.7%, TMO is just seventh largest among the fund's stock picks.Analysts' consensus recommendation stands at Strong Buy, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence. Argus Research is just one research shop in the bull camp.\"Thermo is seeing strong demand for COVID-19 testing solutions as well as for instruments and supplies used by developers of vaccines and other treatments,\" writes analyst David Toung (Buy). \"But the company is also investing its substantial cash flow in technology upgrades, capacity expansions and acquisitions.\"With an average target price of $557.17, the Street gives TMO stock implied upside of about 18% in the next 12 months or so.VisaMarket value:$484.8 billionBillionaire investor:Valley Forge Capital ManagementPercent of portfolio:10.2%Visa(V, $227.30) routinely makes most lists of analysts', hedge funds' or billionaires' favorite stocks.Berkshire Hathaway(BRK.B)owns a stake worth more than $2 billion, although chairman and CEO Warren Buffett readily credits the holding to one of his stock-picking lieutenants.And indeed, there is much to like about this Dow stock. Visa operates the world's largest payments network, and thus is well-positioned to benefit from the growth of cashless transactions and digital mobile payments.The Street's consensus recommendation is a high-conviction Buy. Of the analysts covering the stock tracked by S&P Global Market Intelligence, 21 call V a Strong Buy, 12 rate it at Buy, four say Hold and one calls it a Sell.Valley Forge Capital Management, a hedge fund in Wayne, Pennsylvania, with $1.1 billion in AUM, is certainly a big believer. Visa accounts for 10.2% of its equity portfolio.The fund increased its Visa stake by 88%, or 477,181 shares, in Q1. It now holds more than 1 million shares worth $215 million as of March 31. Mind you, Valley Forge Capital is hardly a novice in this stock. The fund has counted Visa among its stock picks since 2016.Although the pandemic greatly curtailed spending in a number of Visa's categories – most notably travel and entertainment – those headwinds should now be in the past. Indeed, the gradual global reopening – and accelerating secular growth in cashless payments, helped by the perception that cash is \"dirty\" – make a solid bull case for Visa stock.IntelMarket value:$230.7 billionBillionaire investor:Cavalry Management GroupPercent of portfolio:10.4%Intel(INTC, $57.12) has fallen far behind the competition on any number of fronts, which is why analysts and investors were so delighted when the chipmaker hired Pat Gelsinger, former CEO of VMWare (VMW), to take over in February.Heck, some observers said it was the best decision the troubled company made in more than a decade. And, indeed, this Dow stock has been a disappointing performer. Shares are up just 3% over the past three years vs. a gain of 54% for the S&P 500.So props to Cavalry Management Group for making a bold bet on the semiconductor company earlier this year. The San Francisco hedge fund with $2.6 billion in AUM initiated a large enough position to instantly make Intel its top stock pick.Cavalry Management bought 1.7 million shares during the first three months of 2021. With a value of $111.6 million at the end of Q1, INTC accounted for more than 10% of the hedge fund's investments.Cavalry largely focuses on large-cap tech stocks, so Intel certainly fits well with its broader strategy. Other moves the fund made in Q1 included more than tripling its stake in Microsoft, and almost doubling its holdings in Ericsson (ERIC).The Street is generally more cautious on INTC than Cavalry Management is. Analysts' consensus recommendation stands at Hold, per S&P Global Market Intelligence.PayPal HoldingsMarket value:$305.5 billionBillionaire investor:Dorsey Asset ManagementPercent of portfolio:11.8%Digital mobile payments and the expansion of cashless transactions are one of the hottest areas of growth in financial tech. And although the sector offers no shortage of promising new names, old-timerPayPal Holdings(PYPL, $260.02) still gets plenty of analyst – and billionaire investor – love.Explosive growth in mobile transactions, the monetization of its Venmo property and incremental revenue growth in its Xoom business all help make for a compelling bull case on PYPL, analysts say.\"Simply put, PayPal should continue to benefit from the secular shift to e-commerce that should drive a roughly 20% revenue compound annual growth rate (CAGR), which, coupled with margin expansion and capital allocation (mergers & acquisitions plus stock buybacks), should result in an earnings CAGR north of 20% over the next several years,\" writes Raymond James analyst John Davis, who rates the stock at Outperform (the equivalent of Buy).Dorsey Asset Management, with $1.3 billion in AUM, embraces the bull case on PYPL in a big way. The Chicago-based hedge fund increased its stake in PayPal by 81%, or 209,025 shares, in Q1. Its total holdings of 465,266 shares, worth $113 million as of March 31, comprises 11.8% of its stock investments.That's up from 7.9% of the portfolio three months ago. PYPL, which Dorsey has owned since the second quarter of 2018, is now its fifth-largest position.Analysts' consensus recommendation on the stock stands at Buy, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence.Howard HughesMarket value:$5.8 billionBillionaire investor:Bill Ackman (Pershing Square Capital)Percent of portfolio:12.1%No one doubts Bill Ackman's investing acumen. His Pershing Square Capital hedge fund has allowed the investor to amass a personal fortune of $3 billion, per Forbes.And he's never been one to shy away from the media. So his increasing stake inHoward Hughes Corp.(HHC, $105.83) is far from a state secret. Indeed, Ackman has owned shares in the master-planned community developer since it was spun off from General Growth Properties in 2010.Given Ackman's propensity for being anactivist investor, his latest purchase is eyebrow-raising news, nonetheless.The hedge-fund billionaire increased his stake in HHC by 23%, or 2.6 million shares, in Q1. Pershing Square's stake of 13.5 million shares was worth $1.3 billion at the first quarter's end.Most notably, Ackman now holds almost a quarter of HHC's shares outstanding. That makes the hedge fund the company's largest investor by a wide margin. Asset manager Vanguard, at No. 2, owns just 10.8% of HHC.Meanwhile, HHC, at 12.1% of its portfolio, is now Pershing Square Capital's sixth-largest position.For those keeping score at home, HHC stock has doubled over the past 52 weeks vs. a gain of about 38% for the S&P 500. For the year-to-date, it's up by more than a third. That compares with the broader market's gain of about 12% so far this year.Only three analysts cover HHC, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence. One rates it at Strong Buy, while the other two say Buy.Lowe'sMarket value:$137.7 billionBillionaire investor:Two Creeks Capital ManagementPercent of portfolio:12.2%Two Creeks Capital Management, a New York hedge fund with AUM of $2.8 billion, made a big addition to its stake inLowe's(LOW, $194.83) in the first quarter – a move most analysts would regard as wise.The nation's second-largest home improvement retailer after Home Depot (HD) benefited greatly from the work-from-home/stuck-at-home reality of pandemic life. Analysts say many of the do-it-yourself habits consumers adopted during COVID times are here to stay. Lowe's is also being aided by the ultra-tight housing market.The Street gives LOW a consensus recommendation of Buy. Argus Research, which counts itself in the Buy camp, says Lowe's has several strong tailwinds behind it.\"We believe that the major drivers of post-pandemic sales growth remain the same,\" writes Argus Research analyst Christopher Graja. \"There has been significant underinvestment in housing. About 70% of U.S. homes are more than 25 years old and likely in need of upgrades and repairs. Millennials are starting families.\"Income investors know the power of Lowe's dividend over the longer haul. The Dividend Aristocrat has paid a cash distribution every quarter since going public in 1961, and that dividend has increased annually for almost 60 years.The bullish investment thesis led Two Creeks to up its stake in this stock pick by 14%, or 132,811 shares, in Q1. The hedge fund's total stake of 1.1 million LOW shares, worth $200 million at the end of Q1, accounts for 12.2% of its portfolio, representing its third-largest holding.AlphabetMarket value:$1.6 trillionBillionaire investor:Metropolis CapitalPercent of portfolio:13.3%It should come as no surprise that hedge funds are big believers in Google parentAlphabet(GOOGL, $2,356,85). Metropolis Capital, a U.K.-based investor with $1.4 billion in AUM, is just one of about 225 hedge funds upping its stake in the internet giant in Q1.Metropolis thinks highly enough of the search leader that it increased its stake by 22%, or 13,679 shares. The firm now holds a total of 74,868 shares worth $154.4 million, or 13.3% of its total portfolio, as of March 31.Alphabet happens to be in good company at this hedge fund. GOOGL is Metropolis' second-largest stock pick after Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B).If nothing else, Alphabet's pandemic performance in totality bolstered the case that GOOGL is not a one-trick pony. Its numerous other endeavors likewise shore up the case. For example, Alphabet is a key player in cloud-based services, and home to Nest Labs and self-driving car startup Waymo. Artificial intelligence, machine learning and virtual reality are other areas of heavy investment.\"We continue to favor Google as a core large-cap growth holding given the strong digital advertising backdrop, continued strength from Cloud, ongoing share repurchases (with the newly authorized $50 billion program) and a reasonable valuation,\" writes Canaccord Genuity analyst Maria Ripps (Buy).Analysts' consensus recommendation on the name stands at Strong Buy. Of the 45 analysts issuing opinions on the stock tracked by S&P Global Market Intelligence, 32 rate it at Strong Buy, 12 say Buy and one has it at Hold.Walt DisneyMarket value:$324.6 billionBillionaire investor:Kirkoswald Asset ManagementPercent of portfolio:16.5%Coronavirus took a huge bite out of some ofWalt Disney's(DIS, $178.65) most important businesses: namely, its theme parks and studios. But after encouraging quarterly results, analysts say business is set to bounce back in a big way.Disneyland and other California amusement parks have reopened with restrictions. And admissions at Florida's Disney World continue to climb.\"With mask mandates lifted and capacity constraints loosened further, we would not be surprised to see a step change in attendance in the near future,\" writes Deutsche Bank analyst Bryan Kraft (Buy).But that's nothing compared to what DIS has on its hands in thestreaming mediawars.Disney+ is a smashing success. The streaming platform, which launched in November 2019, has already amassed almost 100 million subscribers – a staggering rate of growth. Consider that Disney+ now has about half as many subscribers as Netflix (NFLX) – but Netflix had a roughly 12-year head start.Kirkoswald Asset Management, a New York hedge fund with AUM of $4 billion, decided to get in on DIS asa recovery stock pickin Q1. It initiated a stake of 5,200 shares, worth almost $1 million, during the first three months of the year.The new stake immediately made DIS its second-largest position among $5.8 million in managed securities.Most of the Street would approve of Kirkoswald's investment. Analysts have a consensus Buy recommendation on this Dow stock.Berkshire HathawayMarket value:$661.0 billionBillionaire investor:Southeast Asset AdvisorsPercent of portfolio:16.8%If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.It's hard to compete with Warren Buffett when it comes toasset allocation. As CEO and chairman ofBerkshire Hathaway(BRK.B, $289.44), he's arguably the greatest long-term investor of all time.So it's little wonder that so many hedge funds, large advisories and other billion-dollar-plus pools of money throw in their lots with the Oracle of Omaha.Southeast Asset Advisors, an investment manager and hedge fund based in Thomasville, Georgia, with $1.6 billion in AUM, has been a BRK.B shareholder since 2008. Indeed, BRK.B, at 16.8% of its portfolio, is the fund's top holding.And it's only getting bigger.Southeast increased its stake in BRK.B by 2%, or 7,747 shares, in Q1. It now holds 365,149 shares worth $93.3 million. Only Alphabet Class C shares (GOOG) come close to the firm's BRK.B stake, accounting for 11.7% of the portfolio.BRK.B has been an outstanding performer both in 2021 and over the past 52 weeks. The stock is up 25% for the year-to-date, essentially doubling the S&P 500's gains. And over the past year? BRK.B returned 57% vs. a price increase of less than 40% for the broad-market gauge.Only four analysts cover BRK.B stock, per S&P Global Market Intelligence. Their consensus recommendation comes to Buy.AlibabaMarket value:$580.4 billionBillionaire investor:Conifer ManagementPercent of portfolio:20.7%Conifer Management, a New York hedge fund with $7.7 billion in AUM, has more than a fifth of its portfolio invested in Chinese e-commerce giantAlibaba(BABA, $213.96).Indeed, after upping its stake by 147%, or 884,845 shares, in Q1, BABA is Conifer's top holding. Its total stake of 1.5 million shares was worth $336.7 million at the end of the first quarter.Conifer initiated its stake in BABA only in the final quarter of last year. To the hedge fund's credit, this stock pick is a highly defensible investment idea.Alibaba is sometimes called the Amazon of China. There are important differences between the two, but they do share the enviable trait of being undisputed titans ine-commerce.And like Amazon, Alibaba has never shied away from investing heavily to both build out its existing businesses and enter new ones. As a result, BABA finds itself spreading beyond its core e-commerce business into cloud computing, digital payments and more.It also helps that BABA and investors can now move past a $2.75 billion fine imposed by Chinese regulators for violating anti-monopoly laws.Some analysts worry about decelerating revenue in the company's cloud services business, but the majority of the Street sees recent share-price weakness as a buying opportunity.The consensus recommendation of 49 analysts tracked by S&P Global Market Intelligence comes to Strong Buy on BABA stock.MastercardMarket value:$357.4 billionBillionaire investor:Valley Forge Capital ManagementPercent of portfolio:22.6%If Valley Forge Capital Management likes Visa – as noted above – it absolutely adores competitorMastercard(MA, $360.58).The Wayne, Pennsylvania-based hedge fund with $1.1 billion in AUM almost doubled its stake in this stock pick in the first quarter. And with more than a fifth of its portfolio tied up in the payments processor, Mastercard is Valley Forge's top holding.The hedge fund bought another 665,544 shares, representing a 98% increase, in Q1, bringing its total holdings to 1.3 million shares. The position was worth $477.9 million as of March 31.Valley Forge, which owns 0.14% of MA's shares outstanding, has been an investor in the company since 2016. It's a bet that appears to have done quite well. Mastercard stock's five-year total return – price appreciation plus dividends – comes to 30.8%, according to Morningstar data. That beats its sector by 5.7 percentage points and leads the broader market by 13.4 percentage points.Like Visa, Mastercard has relentless growth in digital mobile payments and other cashless transactions at its back.\"Mastercard is a key beneficiary of the long-term secular shift toward electronic forms of payments, and that new technology is helping accelerate the shift,\" writes William Blair analyst Robert Napoli (Outperform)And, just like Visa, MA has a lot of fans on the Street. Analysts' consensus recommendation stands at Buy.FacebookMarket value:$932.1 billionBillionaire investor:Altarock PartnersPercent of portfolio:24.4%There's a strong bull case to be made forFacebook(FB, $328.73), the social media giant that forms a digital-ad duopoly with Google. Just ask Altarock Partners.This hedge fund, based in Beverly, Massachusetts, with AUM of $3.1 billion, has almost a quarter of its portfolio socked away in Facebook stock. After buying another 465,800 shares, a 27% increase, in Q1, the hedge fund is sitting on 2.2 million shares worth $641.4 million as of March 31.That makes FB Altarock's second-largest holding.And just who is at No. 1?None other than Google parent Alphabet, which commands 25.1% of Altarock's investment portfolio.The hedge fund first bought FB in the fourth quarter of last year, so it's building up its position on the stock pick pretty rapidly. And well it should, if analysts are right about this name.The Street's consensus recommendation on FB stands at Strong Buy, as analysts forecast the company to deliver truly impressive profit growth for some time.\"We believe Facebook's share gains during the pandemic and new initiatives in e-commerce can drive many years of above-market growth,\" writes Stifel analyst John Egbert (Buy). \"We are comfortable with the potential outcomes of antitrust inquiries and believe FB shares offer investors a rare combination of growth and value relative to its peers.\"SeagenMarket value:$28.2 billionBillionaire investor:Felix and Julian Baker (Baker Bros. Advisors)Percent of portfolio:29.7%Seagen(SGEN, $155.35), a biotechnology firm specializing in oncology treatments, couldn't get a bigger vote of confidence than being the top holding of Baker Bros. Advisors.This New York-based hedge fund with $35.8 billion in AUM is led by billionaire biotech investors Julian and Felix Baker. The brothers may keep a low profile, but they're plenty famous in the world ofbiotech stocks. A series of successful investments have allowed the Bakers to build an estimated combined fortune of about $4 billion, according to Forbes.And judging by their latest regulatory filings, the brothers have great expectations for Seagen, too. The stock pick accounts for nearly 30% of the total value of the Baker Bros.' holdings, up from 28.5% three months ago.The increase stems in part from Baker Bros. buying another 347,745 shares in SGEN in the first quarter of 2021. The fund's total holdings of 47.6 million shares were worth more than $7 billion at the end of Q1.The stake gives Baker Bros. ownership of 26.3% of SGEN's shares outstanding, which makes it the biotech company's largest shareholder by a wide margin. The second-largest investor – Capital Research and Management – holds only 8.6% of SGEN's shares outstanding.The views and opinions expressed herein are the views and opinions of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of Nasdaq, Inc.TRENDING TOPICSTRENDING ARTICLES","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":249,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3577074370445232","authorId":"3577074370445232","name":"Ionics","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fe0ce605bd3d4fc95288fb66b3064296","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3577074370445232","authorIdStr":"3577074370445232"},"content":"Comment bk pls ty","text":"Comment bk pls ty","html":"Comment bk pls ty"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9929308887,"gmtCreate":1670596490349,"gmtModify":1676538401285,"author":{"id":"3574212617517822","authorId":"3574212617517822","name":"Konnyaku","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/151457cadab3ed8bda3b475e79b505f0","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574212617517822","authorIdStr":"3574212617517822"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"......","listText":"......","text":"......","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9929308887","repostId":"2289636412","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2289636412","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1670599924,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2289636412?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-12-09 23:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Sensational Growth Stocks Set to Surge 92% to 111% According to Wall Street","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2289636412","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These stocks are beaten down, but could rebound big-time if analysts are right.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>It's well documented that the best way to generate wealth over the long term is investing in the best stocks you can find and holding for years or even decades.

Should Apple sto","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>The holiday quarter is shaping up to be a tough one for Apple due to supply issues. Should Apple stock investors worry?</li></ul><p>The news flow continues to be predominantly bearish for <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> stock and its investors. So far this post-Thanksgiving week, shares have already dipped 5%, a good bit more than the S&P 500’s more modest decline.</p><p>The culprit remains the same of the past few weeks: the shortage of iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max devices. Could this be the beginning of a decline in share price that persists through December, or just a bump in the road that AAPL investors should largely ignore?</p><h3>Too few iPhone 14 Pro to sell</h3><p>Most recently, Bloomberg reported that Apple’s iPhone Pro sales could take a hit to the tune of 6 million units this year.</p><p>ItauBBA’s Thiago Kapulskis is just about the only analyst on the Street with an underperform rating on Apple stock. At least so far, Kapulskis has proven right in his caution toward iPhone unit sales estimates in the holiday quarter. In his most recent note, he said:</p><p>“This reduction of 6 million units, if it occurs, represents ~7% reduction in relation to Apple’s initial expectations. This, in our view, increases the risk for estimates, especially as it is mainly about the high-end models (iPhone Pro), which is where the market is more focused.”</p><p>More upbeat is Webush’s Dan Ives, who acknowledges the “absolute body blow” that this supply issue has been – but he sees the silver lining. According to the analyst, demand for the iPhone remains robust, which should help to support sales past the holiday period.</p><h3>My take on Apple stock vs. iPhone worries</h3><p>To me, the market is not wrong in its bearish knee-jerk reaction to the news coming out of China. The holiday quarter is the big one for Apple, when the Cupertino company tends to generate about one-third of its full-year revenues.</p><p>Keep in mind that, in the market, there aren’t only long-term investors exchanging AAPL shares. Traders making short-term bets are an important diving force as well. As it stands, Apple seems to be facing a rough fiscal Q1 quarter, and the January earnings print could disappoint.</p><p>However, as the reader probably knows, I think that Apple is a stock to own, and not trade – an idea that CNBC’s Jim Cramer has also defended. Therefore, I try to put this quarter’s supply issues in the context of Apple’s long-term prospects.</p><p>Let’s do some math: 6 million fewer units of the iPhone Pro sold in fiscal Q1, at an ASP of $1,100, adds up to $6.6 billion in lost or delayed sales. This figure represents about 5% of Apple’s total quarter revenues in the holiday period last year.</p><p>If I assume gross margin of 35%, which is consistent with Apple’s product margin as a whole, the impact to the bottom line could be $1.9 billion after tax, or 12 cents per share.

Should Apple stock investors worry?The news flow continues to be predominantly bearish for Apple stock and its investors. So far this post-Thanksgiving week, shares have already dipped 5%, a good bit more than the S&P 500’s more modest decline.The culprit remains the same of the past few weeks: the shortage of iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max devices. Could this be the beginning of a decline in share price that persists through December, or just a bump in the road that AAPL investors should largely ignore?Too few iPhone 14 Pro to sellMost recently, Bloomberg reported that Apple’s iPhone Pro sales could take a hit to the tune of 6 million units this year.ItauBBA’s Thiago Kapulskis is just about the only analyst on the Street with an underperform rating on Apple stock. At least so far, Kapulskis has proven right in his caution toward iPhone unit sales estimates in the holiday quarter. In his most recent note, he said:“This reduction of 6 million units, if it occurs, represents ~7% reduction in relation to Apple’s initial expectations. This, in our view, increases the risk for estimates, especially as it is mainly about the high-end models (iPhone Pro), which is where the market is more focused.”More upbeat is Webush’s Dan Ives, who acknowledges the “absolute body blow” that this supply issue has been – but he sees the silver lining. According to the analyst, demand for the iPhone remains robust, which should help to support sales past the holiday period.My take on Apple stock vs. iPhone worriesTo me, the market is not wrong in its bearish knee-jerk reaction to the news coming out of China. The holiday quarter is the big one for Apple, when the Cupertino company tends to generate about one-third of its full-year revenues.Keep in mind that, in the market, there aren’t only long-term investors exchanging AAPL shares. Traders making short-term bets are an important diving force as well. As it stands, Apple seems to be facing a rough fiscal Q1 quarter, and the January earnings print could disappoint.However, as the reader probably knows, I think that Apple is a stock to own, and not trade – an idea that CNBC’s Jim Cramer has also defended. Therefore, I try to put this quarter’s supply issues in the context of Apple’s long-term prospects.Let’s do some math: 6 million fewer units of the iPhone Pro sold in fiscal Q1, at an ASP of $1,100, adds up to $6.6 billion in lost or delayed sales. This figure represents about 5% of Apple’s total quarter revenues in the holiday period last year.If I assume gross margin of 35%, which is consistent with Apple’s product margin as a whole, the impact to the bottom line could be $1.9 billion after tax, or 12 cents per share. Assign a multiple of 25 times, and we are looking at impact to share price of $3, which is next to nothing.And keep in mind: 6 million fewer iPhone 14 Pro units sold in the quarter does not mean lost sales, necessarily. At least a good chunk of this total could merely be pushed forward, with revenues finally being recognized in the March 2023 quarter.The point is that, in my opinion, Apple’s current supply issues should not be too big of a concern in the grand scheme of things – unless one assumes that this will be a recurring problem well into next year.In a nutshell: it makes sense to me that Apple stock is under pressure for now. But if the share price continues to decline, the dip could prove to be an opportunity for long-term investors to buy the stock for cheaper and realize the potential gains over time.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":88,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9966285860,"gmtCreate":1669556823150,"gmtModify":1676538207054,"author":{"id":"3574212617517822","authorId":"3574212617517822","name":"Konnyaku","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/151457cadab3ed8bda3b475e79b505f0","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574212617517822","authorIdStr":"3574212617517822"},"themes":[],"htmlText":".","listText":".","text":".","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9966285860","repostId":"1170146184","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1170146184","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1669522674,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170146184?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-27 12:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Tech Stocks You Can Count on in This Uncertain Market","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1170146184","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Here are three top-quality tech stocks investors can count on in the long term.Apple(AAPL): Warren B","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>Here are three top-quality tech stocks investors can count on in the long term.</li><li><b>Apple</b>(<b>AAPL</b>): Warren Buffett continues to buy because of its economic moat.</li><li><b>Advanced Micro Devices</b>(<b>AMD</b>): Analysts love this beaten-down tech name.</li><li><b>Nvidia</b>(<b>NVDA</b>): The bad news is already priced into downed stocks like Nvidia.</li></ul><p>2022 was a tough one for tech stocks.
