A lot of people say their positions in flashy technology companies are meant to be long-term holdings, but they're really just an effort to make a quick buck. And that's OK. Any profitable trade is technically a good trade. If you can get in and out at the right time, so be it.</p>\n<p>Thing is, there are plenty of tech names that are more than just flash-in-the-pan prospects, and are better suited for holding periods measured in years rather than weeks.</p>\n<p>Here's a closer look at three such technology companies. Not only will they be just as impressive 10 years from now as they are today, but their stocks should be trading at much higher prices.</p>\n<h2>Microsoft</h2>\n<p>It's tough to imagine a world without <b>Microsoft</b> (NASDAQ:MSFT). Its Windows operating system is installed on three-fourths of the world's desktops and laptops, according to GlobalStats, and its Office productivity software remains the gold standard for the category. <b>Sony</b>'s PlayStation gaming console enjoys more worldwide market share than Microsoft's Xbox, but the Xbox is closing the gap, and is still the most popular game console in the U.S.</p>\n<p>And these are things consumers can readily see. There's a whole different unseen array of Microsoft-made products that are doing similarly well. For instance, Canalys reports Microsoft's cloud computing business accounted for a second-best 19% of the world's first-quarter cloud infrastructure spending, and the company continues to close the gap with market-leader <b>Amazon</b>.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/362a8a5cb8d412d4e3895fa185d236b7\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"484\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>Now take a step back and ask a thoughtful, critical question: Is there any chance the world will have less need for computers, cloud computing, productivity software, or game consoles 10 years from now?</p>\n<p>Any reasonable and realistic answer has to be \"no.\" Indeed, it would be surprising if demand for these products and services wasn't considerably greater a decade from now. Being a market leader in multiple categories, Microsoft can steer the market's ongoing growth in a way that serves itself best. For example, the Windows operating system comes with trial versions of Office software pre-installed.</p>\n<p>Bolstering the bullish argument for long-term ownership of Microsoft is the company's evolving business model. Access to Azure, Office, and even video games can now be utilized on a monthly subscription basis, accessible via the cloud. This shift not only makes the company's products more affordable to begin using but also gives Microsoft a better chance of keeping those customers by making it easy to update and upgrade software.</p>\n<p>Last year, the last time Microsoft disclosed such data, it had already lined up more than $100 billion worth of subscription cloud revenue that had yet to be booked -- a figure that continues to edge upward.</p>\n<h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PANW\">Palo Alto Networks</a></h2>\n<p>Even after several high-profile cybersecurity gaffes embarrassed organizations ranging from <b>Target </b>to <b>Equifax</b> to Yahoo!, some of the world's most important companies are still being hacked. Most recently, Colonial Pipeline agreed to fork over $4.4 million to a computer hacking group known as Darkside to regain control of its 5,500 miles worth of refined oil pipelines.</p>\n<p>These things are preventable. They're just not being prevented, as too many organizations don't utilize all the digital defenses available to them. Perhaps the Colonial Pipeline debacle will encourage procurement of this protection.</p>\n<p>Enter <b>Palo Alto Networks</b> (NYSE:PANW). Simply put, Palo Alto offers software preventing unauthorized access to a company's network, internal apps, and data. It's even got a ransomware protection solution in its lineup that might have been able to save Colonial Pipeline a few million bucks.</p>\n<p>The opportunity is incredible, and should remain so for a while. P&amp;S Intelligence believes the cybersecurity market will grow at an average annual pace of 12.6%, from 2019's $120 billion to $434 billion by 2030. That's a lot, but it's only a fraction of the $10.5 trillion that Cybersecurity Ventures believes cybercrime will cost the world in 2025 alone if enterprises don't step up their digital defense games.</p>\n<p>Palo Alto is doing fine, logging more than seven consecutive years of rising revenue as more and more outfits build their digital moats. Given the outlook, more of the same kind of growth is in the cards for a while.</p>\n<h2>International Business Machines</h2>\n<p>Finally, add <b>International Business Machines</b> (NYSE:IBM) to your list of technology stocks to buy and hold for the next decade.</p>\n<p>Yes, this is the same IBM that failed to respond to the advent of things like cloud computing, mobile devices, and all that goes with both. The company's \"strategic imperatives\" plan unveiled in 2015 was meant to steer the company away from a legacy mainframe business that was already dying and toward more contemporary opportunities like the aforementioned cloud and mobile security. By and large, though, it was too little too late.</p>\n<p>The IBM of today, however, isn't the IBM from even as recently as two years ago. It's ready to compete where it counts.</p>\n<p>Take last month's revelation of new technologies capable of fabricating a 2-nanometer microchip as an example. The microscopic measure is in reference to how small a chip's transistors can be made and still function properly. The smaller, the better, as smaller transistors consume less power, operate faster, and require less space when room is a factor. For perspective, 7-nanometer chips are the best the market has to offer right now.</p>\n<p>It's not just more functional chips IBM is starting to develop, either.

A lot of people say their positions in flashy technology companies are meant to be long-term holdings, but they're really just an effort to make a quick buck. And that's OK. Any profitable trade is technically a good trade. If you can get in and out at the right time, so be it.\nThing is, there are plenty of tech names that are more than just flash-in-the-pan prospects, and are better suited for holding periods measured in years rather than weeks.\nHere's a closer look at three such technology companies. Not only will they be just as impressive 10 years from now as they are today, but their stocks should be trading at much higher prices.\nMicrosoft\nIt's tough to imagine a world without Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT). Its Windows operating system is installed on three-fourths of the world's desktops and laptops, according to GlobalStats, and its Office productivity software remains the gold standard for the category. Sony's PlayStation gaming console enjoys more worldwide market share than Microsoft's Xbox, but the Xbox is closing the gap, and is still the most popular game console in the U.S.\nAnd these are things consumers can readily see. There's a whole different unseen array of Microsoft-made products that are doing similarly well. For instance, Canalys reports Microsoft's cloud computing business accounted for a second-best 19% of the world's first-quarter cloud infrastructure spending, and the company continues to close the gap with market-leader Amazon.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNow take a step back and ask a thoughtful, critical question: Is there any chance the world will have less need for computers, cloud computing, productivity software, or game consoles 10 years from now?\nAny reasonable and realistic answer has to be \"no.\" Indeed, it would be surprising if demand for these products and services wasn't considerably greater a decade from now. Being a market leader in multiple categories, Microsoft can steer the market's ongoing growth in a way that serves itself best. For example, the Windows operating system comes with trial versions of Office software pre-installed.\nBolstering the bullish argument for long-term ownership of Microsoft is the company's evolving business model. Access to Azure, Office, and even video games can now be utilized on a monthly subscription basis, accessible via the cloud. This shift not only makes the company's products more affordable to begin using but also gives Microsoft a better chance of keeping those customers by making it easy to update and upgrade software.\nLast year, the last time Microsoft disclosed such data, it had already lined up more than $100 billion worth of subscription cloud revenue that had yet to be booked -- a figure that continues to edge upward.\nPalo Alto Networks\nEven after several high-profile cybersecurity gaffes embarrassed organizations ranging from Target to Equifax to Yahoo!, some of the world's most important companies are still being hacked. Most recently, Colonial Pipeline agreed to fork over $4.4 million to a computer hacking group known as Darkside to regain control of its 5,500 miles worth of refined oil pipelines.\nThese things are preventable. They're just not being prevented, as too many organizations don't utilize all the digital defenses available to them. Perhaps the Colonial Pipeline debacle will encourage procurement of this protection.\nEnter Palo Alto Networks (NYSE:PANW). Simply put, Palo Alto offers software preventing unauthorized access to a company's network, internal apps, and data. It's even got a ransomware protection solution in its lineup that might have been able to save Colonial Pipeline a few million bucks.\nThe opportunity is incredible, and should remain so for a while. P&S Intelligence believes the cybersecurity market will grow at an average annual pace of 12.6%, from 2019's $120 billion to $434 billion by 2030. That's a lot, but it's only a fraction of the $10.5 trillion that Cybersecurity Ventures believes cybercrime will cost the world in 2025 alone if enterprises don't step up their digital defense games.\nPalo Alto is doing fine, logging more than seven consecutive years of rising revenue as more and more outfits build their digital moats. Given the outlook, more of the same kind of growth is in the cards for a while.\nInternational Business Machines\nFinally, add International Business Machines (NYSE:IBM) to your list of technology stocks to buy and hold for the next decade.\nYes, this is the same IBM that failed to respond to the advent of things like cloud computing, mobile devices, and all that goes with both. The company's \"strategic imperatives\" plan unveiled in 2015 was meant to steer the company away from a legacy mainframe business that was already dying and toward more contemporary opportunities like the aforementioned cloud and mobile security. By and large, though, it was too little too late.\nThe IBM of today, however, isn't the IBM from even as recently as two years ago. It's ready to compete where it counts.\nTake last month's revelation of new technologies capable of fabricating a 2-nanometer microchip as an example. The microscopic measure is in reference to how small a chip's transistors can be made and still function properly. The smaller, the better, as smaller transistors consume less power, operate faster, and require less space when room is a factor. For perspective, 7-nanometer chips are the best the market has to offer right now.\nIt's not just more functional chips IBM is starting to develop, either. Just within the past few weeks, the company has unveiled a way for data centers to more efficiently store and retrieve data, and launched AutoSQL, which is capable of retrieving data eight times faster than previous approaches are. Both technologies have a myriad of potential uses, including in the artificial intelligence arena.\nRead between the lines. This isn't yesteryear's IBM.\nIt could still take years for the company to fully monetize these and other breakthroughs, but they're worth the wait.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":576,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":132934182,"gmtCreate":1622062330446,"gmtModify":1704178609279,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/132934182","repostId":"2138143109","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2138143109","pubTimestamp":1622042760,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2138143109?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-26 23:26","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why American Eagle Outfitters Is Jumping 5.5% Today","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2138143109","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The apparel retailer has strong tailwinds behind it.","content":"<h2>What happened</h2><p>Shares of <b>American Eagle Outfitters</b> (NYSE:AEO) were up 5.5% in morning trading Wednesday ahead of the apparel retailer reporting first-quarter earnings after the market closes.</p><h2>So what</h2><p>Many retailers are posting strong quarterly financials as they go up against comparatively weak comparable sales from the year-ago period, which was partially marred by the coronavirus pandemic outbreak.

Numerous investors worldwide know him as the long-serving Chief Strategist of BCA Research.</p>\n<p>Today, Zhao is confident about equity markets. He sees the ingredients for a strong recovery in the global economy, and he believes fears of higher inflation are overblown. He sees the potential for the Federal Reserve's monetary policy to inflate a new speculative bubble.<i><b>«This bubble is going to be a whole lot bigger than the tech bubble of the late nineties, and it will probably run a whole lot longer than we think»,</b></i>says Zhao in an in-depth conversation with The Market NZZ.</p>\n<p><b>His main concern is the growing conflict between the United States and China.</b>Today, the risk of escalation over Taiwan is greater than at any time in the last 40 years, Zhao warns.</p>\n<p>Mr. Zhao, in February and March, we have witnessed a sharp upward move in long term US bond yields, temporarily causing a sell-off in the Nasdaq. What do you make of this?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Whenever bond yields rise, you should conceptually decompose this movement into two stages. One is reflective, meaning\n <b>the bond market is trying to tell you something about the underlying economy.</b>Rising bond yields are reflective of stronger economic growth. However, a market selloff could also move into a phase where bond yields become too high, constraining economic activity. In my judgement, what we are witnessing right now is purely reflective. The ISM manufacturing index is at its highest level since 1983, the world economy is in a strong recovery mode. Higher yields are consistent with the economy getting stronger. Under these circumstances, I would be more concerned if bond yields did not rise.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Aren’t rising inflation expectations also playing a part?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>I don’t see a clear breakout in inflation expectations.</b>People forget that during the decade after the global financial crisis, inflation expectations have fallen apart. Markets became much more concerned about deflation. Inflation breakeven rates currently are between 2 and 2.2%, whereas the average range during the decade before 2009 was more like 2.5 to 3%. So inflation expectations are simply in the process of being normalized.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Do you see room for a further rise in yields?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Our model says ten year Treasury yields are pretty much at fair value today, at around 1.5%. But we know that if we have a cyclical move in financial markets, nothing stops at fair value. Markets always undershoot or overshoot. So I could see yields rise towards 2% or even a bit more.\n <b>If they approach 2%, we would be active buyers of long term Treasuries.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Don’t you see structural inflation building up?</p>\n<blockquote>\n No, not at all. There is a widespread misunderstanding of this issue. Many people look at the fiscal position of the United States and see a budget deficit of almost 20% of GDP. The Fed balance sheet has expanded by $7 trillion since the beginning of the pandemic, M2 has exploded upward.\n <b>How can this not be inflationary? Well, in my experience, something that is too obvious is usually wrong.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>How so?</p>\n<blockquote>\n What happened is this: For all of 2020, the US government unleashed $3.5 trillion in various rescue packages, as a result of which the federal government debt rose by $3.6 trillion. At the same time, the household sector’s disposable income increased by $3.5 trillion, and household savings shot up by $5.5 trillion. In other words, American households not only saved up all the transfer payments they received from the government, but they even saved $2 trillion more from their own income.\n <b>These rescue programs did absolutely nothing to generate aggregate final demand or GDP growth. What we have seen was not a fiscal stimulus to boost aggregate demand, but a transfer payment. This was no different than a one-time tax cut.</b>We know that people’s spending behaviour is determined by their outlook for sustainable income.\n <b>If you give them a one-time tax cut, they will save it. This is what the Permanent Income Hypothesis says and this is what has happened.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Don’t you think there is a huge amount of pent-up demand that will be released once the economy fully reopens?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Yes, there will be a demand surge. Consumption spending has been repressed for over a year as a result of Covid-19 related restrictions. When the world economy reopens, this spending will be released. But this is not inflationary, as the boom will be temporary. People won’t party for the next twenty years. They will party for the next six months or so.\n <b>For inflation to be a true threat, you need aggregate demand exceeding aggregate supply on a sustainable basis. I don’t see that happening any time soon.</b>The government subsidies simply amount to a huge balance sheet swap: government debt as a share of GDP has gone up, while consumers’ net worth has gone up even more. This balance sheet swap has nothing to do with excessive aggregate demand.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Does that also mean you don’t see a structural bear market for bonds, where yields would drift higher over the coming years?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Correct,\n <b>I don’t see the drivers for structurally higher yields.</b>That’s why I think that ten-year Treasury yields above 2% would represent a good buying opportunity.\n</blockquote>\n<p>What would it take for you to change your mind?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>I will change my mind if the government took over and built lots of roads and bridges and have it all financed by the Fed.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Isn’t that what the $2.3 trillion Biden infrastructure plan will do?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>This proposed package is a step towards that kind of transition. But don’t forget, this is a rather small piece of cake, because it envisions spending roughly $2.2 trillion over eight years, so each year it would add only about 0.8 or 0.9% of GDP adjusted for inflation.</b>On top of that, Biden is proposing higher taxes to fund it. So his infrastructure plan creates some growth on one hand, while taking it away with higher taxes on the other hand. Its net impact will only be around 0.4 or 0.5% of GDP per year. This won’t be a game changer in terms of inflation.\n</blockquote>\n<p>What else would tell you that we are indeed moving through a profound transition towards higher inflation and higher interest rates?</p>\n<blockquote>\n In my view,\n <b>central banks have been completely wrong in their thinking about the Phillips Curve for the past 30 years,</b>meaning that every time the labor market got too strong, they felt they had to raise rates, because they feared wage inflation would kick in. But we know now that there are a lot of things standing in the way between a strong labor market and actual wage inflation. In an environment of rising productivity, you can have higher wages and still lower inflation.\n <b>Fundamentally speaking, free market capitalism is deflationary.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Why?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>Neither you nor I are paid more than our marginal output. In our society as a whole, labor is always paid at or below its marginal output. In a socialist economy, it’s the other way round, because workers are usually paid more than their marginal output. So unless we change our system into a much more socialist type, and unless we had a substantial decline in labor productivity, I don’t see a return of structural inflation.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>What is different today compared to the 1970s, when we had structural inflation in our Western economies?</p>\n<blockquote>\n In the 1970s, we had powerful unions in the US which drove up labor cost but kept productivity low. This was the legacy of President Roosevelt’s New Deal which, in my view, was very socialist. In addition, you had a collapse in the Bretton Woods System which drove down the Dollar by 50%, leading to a spike in goods price inflation.\n <b>Finally, the US was a manufacturing power in the 1970s and the oil crisis created enormous stagflation pressures. None of this is true today.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>There is a tug of war going on between the Fed and financial markets: The Fed says they will stay dovish for a long time, while markets expect a lift-off in short term rates next year. Who is right?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>If you think about last decade, Fed policy was always too tight: The projected interest rate path by the Fed, as seen by the so-called Dot Plots, was always higher than market expectations.</b>Because of that, we had a number of financial tremors: The taper tantrum in 2013, the collapse in commodity prices in 2015, the collapse in stock markets in late 2018. We had almost ten years of undershooting inflation and periodic stock market chaos as a result of monetary policy being too tight. In the end, the Fed always caved in and moved towards the market.\n <b>Now it’s the other way round: The Fed is more dovish than market expectations. The market has priced in four or five rate hikes through 2023, while the Fed suggests they won’t do anything before 2024.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Which side is right?</p>\n<blockquote>\n If you only looked at the lessons of the last decade, you’d say the market is right. But\n <b>the difference today is that the Fed has abandoned its old reaction function and wants to stay ultra-stimulative</b>until inflation is above 2% for a while. The Fed is now adamantly saying they are\n <b>willing to be late this time,</b>allowing the economy and inflation to run hotter than they would have in the old days. If that’s the case, then markets may be wrong because they still assume the old reaction function of the Fed. So we don’t know yet, but it’s possible that the Fed will stay dovish much longer than markets think.\n</blockquote>\n<p>What would the consequences of this new Fed policy be?</p>\n<blockquote>\n One conclusion is pretty obvious:\n <b>The stock market has already gone crazy and will likely go even crazier.</b>If you read the work of Charles Kindleberger, you know that asset bubbles are perennial, they grow back every ten years or so, and they are usually driven by easy monetary policy and lots of liquidity. So this new reaction function by the Fed, plus the support from fiscal policy, means that markets will go through a very bubbly period.\n</blockquote>\n<p>How big can this bubble get?</p>\n<blockquote>\n If you look at history, all speculative bubbles got killed by tightening monetary policy.\n <b>You never had a bubble burst while monetary policy was still easy.</b>Asset bubbles pop when central banks tighten policy to a point of yield curve inversion. Today, we’re far away from that.\n <b>That’s why I think this bubble could get a whole lot bigger.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Would you say we’re only at the beginning of this process?</p>\n<blockquote>\n I’d say we are in the early stages of a stock market bubble, especially in the United States.\n <b>There are many signs of speculative behaviour,</b>be it Bitcoin, Gamestop, and so on. But it’s not as pervasive yet as it was in the late 1990s. When the technology bubble burst in 2000, everybody was bullish. Today, many people, even large banks, are still bearish. When they throw in the towel, then the final phase will begin.\n <b>This bubble is going to be a whole lot bigger than the 90s and it will probably run a whole lot longer than we think.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>You don’t see the risk of the bond market assuming the job of tightening conditions by rising long term yields?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Historically, rising yields hurt the economy and stock prices only when both the long and the short end of the curve were moving up. It’s usually not the case to see the long end of the curve move way up while short term rates remain pressed down, as they are today. There is a limit to the pain long term rates can create for the economy, because borrowers can always slide down the maturity curve to avoid having to pay higher interest rates.\n <b>So if you put it all together, I think ten year yields can’t move much higher than their fair value, while short term rates remain at zero.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>What will happen then?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>The most likely scenario I see today is that we’ll have an expanding equity bubble for the next two years, with multiples going way higher. Then comes the point where the Fed just can’t remain dovish anymore. They will raise rates. At that point, the end would be nigh. a bursting asset bubble would be inevitable, and this is always very deflationary. When that happens, we could see zero nominal yields in the U.S.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Late last year, everyone was bearish on the dollar. Now the Greenback has surprised by strengthening since January. Why was that?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>Don’t forget that the dollar had dropped almost 11% last year.</b>Getting into 2021, it was very oversold, jammed with shorts. So a natural rebound from this position was to be expected. Going forward, I see the prerequisites in place for a further weakening.\n <b>In the last 20 years, every time the world economy slumped, the dollar strengthened, and every time the world economy got better, the dollar weakened. Right now, we see an improving world economy, hence the dollar should weaken.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>What’s the reason for that pattern?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>People say the dollar is a safe haven currency, but I don’t see it that way.</b>The Yen and the Swiss Franc are much better safe havens. From the 1970s through the 1990s, the dollar was pro-cyclical, i.e. strengthening with a stronger world economy. This changed around the year 2000. The reason in my view is that large parts of the developed world are in a liquidity trap. And in a liquidity trap, there is infinite demand for dollars, because the dollar demand curve is flat. So every time where we have an economic slump, it means the liquidity trap is deepening, hence the demand for dollars is going up. And every time the economy gets better, the liquidity trap is getting shallower, with demand for dollars shrinking.\n <b>So, if I take the view that the world economy in the second half of this year is starting a boom, then logically, we cannot have a stronger dollar. We have never had a booming world economy and a stronger dollar since 2000.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>When you look at world equity markets, which geographies and sectors currently offer the best opportunities?</p>\n<blockquote>\n I am very value conscious, so\n <b>I like European stocks, they have underperformed for a long time</b>. I would overweight Germany, France and Italy; their valuations are way more attractive than the US market. If we have a world economic boom, these markets will do very well. The US is difficult to underweight, because it’s so huge, but on the fringe I would suggest to overweight non-US stocks, i.e. Europe and Japan.\n <b>I think the Japanese market can have one last, big upleg before this bull market is over.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>An economic boom and a lower dollar should be bullish for emerging markets, right?</p>\n<blockquote>\n We must keep in mind that\n <b>today’s emerging markets are very different from 20 years ago.</b>Today, more than 40% of the MSCI EM index is made up by China. In China, the equity market is predominantly driven by big tech, with stocks like Alibaba and Tencent. So China has a similar issue like the US tech sector: In an environment of rising bond yields, these high-multiple stocks tend to underperform. Besides, China has begun to tighten policy, which is a negative for EM performance as a whole. I would shift more towards the commodity segment, meaning Latin America. They have been beaten down badly because of the Bolsonaro screwup in the pandemic crisis, but for every grief there is a price, and\n <b>I think Brazilian assets are cheap enough to absorb all the negatives.</b>I particularly like commodity markets like Chile. I also like Australia and Canada. These are places where value is better, and they are well positioned for rising commodity prices.\n</blockquote>\n<p>We see a world of inverted roles: After the financial crisis, China embarked on a huge monetary and fiscal stimulus. Today it’s the U.S., while China is tightening. What’s going on?</p>\n<blockquote>\n If you look at\n <b>the net increase in Chinese fiscal deficit in terms of fighting the pandemic, it was about 4.7% last year, as opposed to about 15% of GDP in the US.</b>Of course, China got the pandemic under control earlier, but that’s not all. The key thing is, their fiscal deficit spending is 100% infrastructure, whereas in the Western world we talk about 10 to 20% of GDP being dumped into the system through transfer payments. The fiscal multiplier in China is huge, while in the US it is practically zero. The second thing is this:\n <b>After 2008, China went on a construction spree, financed by an avalanche of credit creation. For ten years since then, the central government has been concerned about the economy getting overleveraged. This time, they are comparatively stingy and Beijing wants to slow down the credit creation process early.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>The stock market in China is not happy about that.</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>The stock market is very sensitive to changes in liquidity conditions.</b>If credit growth is slowing down, stocks perform poorly. So it’s not a great time to buy Chinese equities right now. But from a broader economic point of view, I don’t think we’ll see the kind of tightening shock in China like we saw in 2015. So even though it might not be a great time to buy stocks due to liquidity conditions, I think the Chinese economy will do reasonably well, which also means a good environment for commodity prices.\n</blockquote>\n<p>What makes you confident that policy makers in China won’t commit a mistake and tighten too much?</p>\n<blockquote>\n They have not created much credit excesses this time, so there is no reason for them to tighten aggressively.\n <b>Geopolitically, the leadership in China has reached the conclusion that America is trying to suffocate the Chinese economy. So they have to maintain growth momentum by letting foreign investment money coming in.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Has there been a change in thinking towards the US in Beijing since Joe Biden assumed the presidency?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>I think both sides are too far on the path of great power rivalry already.</b>America represents the incumbent power, and China is the rising power that is challenging the US. I personally believe that\n <b>we in the West don’t get the full picture of Sino-US confrontation. We only get the western side of the story,</b>we never get to see the Chinese perspective through our media.\n</blockquote>\n<p>What is the Chinese perspective?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>Within China, there is a strong feeling that the Americans have destroyed the bilateral relationship to cater to purely domestic political needs,</b>starting with Donald Trump. They feel that they are treated unfairly, in a confrontation that is unprovoked. Even when it comes to Hong Kong, we only know Beijing violated the concept of One Country Two Systems by imposing the new security law, but\n <b>how about the social upheavals and civil unrest in the two years leading up to the change of law</b>? No one said anything here. The US accused the Chinese of not playing by the rules, but the Chinese say they have played by the rules that were written by the US. They have joined the WTO and have slowly opened up their system. They signed the Paris Treaty. They have honoured all the international obligations, then Trump came and uprooted the very system that America had built. So the Chinese feel that the Americans suddenly want to change the rules again.\n <b>The consensus in Beijing now is that the US wants to derail China. Once you have a consensus like that, it’s difficult to change.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Will Biden continue on that path?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Biden has inherited Trump’s policies. That’s unfortunate, but there’s not much he can do. Trump’s China policy served his domestic agenda, hitting China in order to score points at home. As a result of that, public opinion of China spiralled down. Biden can’t turn that back. And again,\n <b>the consensus in China is that America wants to keep China down. We must prepare for a long confrontation.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Do you see the risk of that confrontation turning hot?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>Washington is playing with the very nerve of the Chinese national interest, which is Taiwan.</b>Since the beginning of bilateral diplomatic relations in the 1970s, one core commitment of the US was the One China Policy, avoiding official contact with the government in Taiwan. But Trump changed that, and Biden continues to follow the Trump script. This is very dangerous. Since 1979, there has been a tacit understanding on both sides that if the US does not encourage separation, the Chinese side will not resort to any military action. Now this tacit agreement has been thrown out of the window. Because Washington has seemingly encouraged official contacts with Taiwan, China feels the need to show their commitment to retake the island to maintain territorial integrity. That’s why we have incursions into Taiwanese air space practically every day. There is a reaction feedback going back and forth.\n <b>I think there is a strong consensus among the Chinese leadership that within the next five years, if the US continues along this path, they might as well just take the risk of invading Taiwan. Then, all bets are off. The risk of some kind of confrontation is the highest in 40 years.</b>\n</blockquote>","source":"lsy1583725640930","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>\"The Stock Market Has Gone Crazy And Will Likely Go Even Crazier\"</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\">\n\"The Stock Market Has Gone Crazy And Will Likely Go Even Crazier\"\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-25 15:54 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/stock-market-has-gone-crazy-and-will-likely-go-even-crazier><strong>zerohedge</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Chen Zhao, Founding Partner and Chief Strategist of Montreal-based Alpine Macro, has been analyzing global financial markets for more than thirty years.

Numerous investors worldwide know him as the long-serving Chief Strategist of BCA Research.\nToday, Zhao is confident about equity markets. He sees the ingredients for a strong recovery in the global economy, and he believes fears of higher inflation are overblown. He sees the potential for the Federal Reserve's monetary policy to inflate a new speculative bubble.«This bubble is going to be a whole lot bigger than the tech bubble of the late nineties, and it will probably run a whole lot longer than we think»,says Zhao in an in-depth conversation with The Market NZZ.\nHis main concern is the growing conflict between the United States and China.Today, the risk of escalation over Taiwan is greater than at any time in the last 40 years, Zhao warns.\nMr. Zhao, in February and March, we have witnessed a sharp upward move in long term US bond yields, temporarily causing a sell-off in the Nasdaq. What do you make of this?\n\n Whenever bond yields rise, you should conceptually decompose this movement into two stages. One is reflective, meaning\n the bond market is trying to tell you something about the underlying economy.Rising bond yields are reflective of stronger economic growth. However, a market selloff could also move into a phase where bond yields become too high, constraining economic activity. In my judgement, what we are witnessing right now is purely reflective. The ISM manufacturing index is at its highest level since 1983, the world economy is in a strong recovery mode. Higher yields are consistent with the economy getting stronger. Under these circumstances, I would be more concerned if bond yields did not rise.\n\nAren’t rising inflation expectations also playing a part?\n\nI don’t see a clear breakout in inflation expectations.People forget that during the decade after the global financial crisis, inflation expectations have fallen apart. Markets became much more concerned about deflation. Inflation breakeven rates currently are between 2 and 2.2%, whereas the average range during the decade before 2009 was more like 2.5 to 3%. So inflation expectations are simply in the process of being normalized.\n\nDo you see room for a further rise in yields?\n\n Our model says ten year Treasury yields are pretty much at fair value today, at around 1.5%. But we know that if we have a cyclical move in financial markets, nothing stops at fair value. Markets always undershoot or overshoot. So I could see yields rise towards 2% or even a bit more.\n If they approach 2%, we would be active buyers of long term Treasuries.\n\nDon’t you see structural inflation building up?\n\n No, not at all. There is a widespread misunderstanding of this issue. Many people look at the fiscal position of the United States and see a budget deficit of almost 20% of GDP. The Fed balance sheet has expanded by $7 trillion since the beginning of the pandemic, M2 has exploded upward.\n How can this not be inflationary? Well, in my experience, something that is too obvious is usually wrong.\n\nHow so?\n\n What happened is this: For all of 2020, the US government unleashed $3.5 trillion in various rescue packages, as a result of which the federal government debt rose by $3.6 trillion. At the same time, the household sector’s disposable income increased by $3.5 trillion, and household savings shot up by $5.5 trillion. In other words, American households not only saved up all the transfer payments they received from the government, but they even saved $2 trillion more from their own income.\n These rescue programs did absolutely nothing to generate aggregate final demand or GDP growth. What we have seen was not a fiscal stimulus to boost aggregate demand, but a transfer payment. This was no different than a one-time tax cut.We know that people’s spending behaviour is determined by their outlook for sustainable income.\n If you give them a one-time tax cut, they will save it. This is what the Permanent Income Hypothesis says and this is what has happened.\n\nDon’t you think there is a huge amount of pent-up demand that will be released once the economy fully reopens?\n\n Yes, there will be a demand surge. Consumption spending has been repressed for over a year as a result of Covid-19 related restrictions. When the world economy reopens, this spending will be released. But this is not inflationary, as the boom will be temporary. People won’t party for the next twenty years. They will party for the next six months or so.\n For inflation to be a true threat, you need aggregate demand exceeding aggregate supply on a sustainable basis. I don’t see that happening any time soon.The government subsidies simply amount to a huge balance sheet swap: government debt as a share of GDP has gone up, while consumers’ net worth has gone up even more. This balance sheet swap has nothing to do with excessive aggregate demand.\n\nDoes that also mean you don’t see a structural bear market for bonds, where yields would drift higher over the coming years?\n\n Correct,\n I don’t see the drivers for structurally higher yields.That’s why I think that ten-year Treasury yields above 2% would represent a good buying opportunity.\n\nWhat would it take for you to change your mind?\n\nI will change my mind if the government took over and built lots of roads and bridges and have it all financed by the Fed.\n\nIsn’t that what the $2.3 trillion Biden infrastructure plan will do?\n\nThis proposed package is a step towards that kind of transition. But don’t forget, this is a rather small piece of cake, because it envisions spending roughly $2.2 trillion over eight years, so each year it would add only about 0.8 or 0.9% of GDP adjusted for inflation.On top of that, Biden is proposing higher taxes to fund it. So his infrastructure plan creates some growth on one hand, while taking it away with higher taxes on the other hand. Its net impact will only be around 0.4 or 0.5% of GDP per year. This won’t be a game changer in terms of inflation.\n\nWhat else would tell you that we are indeed moving through a profound transition towards higher inflation and higher interest rates?\n\n In my view,\n central banks have been completely wrong in their thinking about the Phillips Curve for the past 30 years,meaning that every time the labor market got too strong, they felt they had to raise rates, because they feared wage inflation would kick in. But we know now that there are a lot of things standing in the way between a strong labor market and actual wage inflation. In an environment of rising productivity, you can have higher wages and still lower inflation.\n Fundamentally speaking, free market capitalism is deflationary.\n\nWhy?\n\nNeither you nor I are paid more than our marginal output. In our society as a whole, labor is always paid at or below its marginal output. In a socialist economy, it’s the other way round, because workers are usually paid more than their marginal output. So unless we change our system into a much more socialist type, and unless we had a substantial decline in labor productivity, I don’t see a return of structural inflation.\n\nWhat is different today compared to the 1970s, when we had structural inflation in our Western economies?\n\n In the 1970s, we had powerful unions in the US which drove up labor cost but kept productivity low. This was the legacy of President Roosevelt’s New Deal which, in my view, was very socialist. In addition, you had a collapse in the Bretton Woods System which drove down the Dollar by 50%, leading to a spike in goods price inflation.\n Finally, the US was a manufacturing power in the 1970s and the oil crisis created enormous stagflation pressures. None of this is true today.\n\nThere is a tug of war going on between the Fed and financial markets: The Fed says they will stay dovish for a long time, while markets expect a lift-off in short term rates next year. Who is right?\n\nIf you think about last decade, Fed policy was always too tight: The projected interest rate path by the Fed, as seen by the so-called Dot Plots, was always higher than market expectations.Because of that, we had a number of financial tremors: The taper tantrum in 2013, the collapse in commodity prices in 2015, the collapse in stock markets in late 2018. We had almost ten years of undershooting inflation and periodic stock market chaos as a result of monetary policy being too tight. In the end, the Fed always caved in and moved towards the market.\n Now it’s the other way round: The Fed is more dovish than market expectations. The market has priced in four or five rate hikes through 2023, while the Fed suggests they won’t do anything before 2024.\n\nWhich side is right?\n\n If you only looked at the lessons of the last decade, you’d say the market is right. But\n the difference today is that the Fed has abandoned its old reaction function and wants to stay ultra-stimulativeuntil inflation is above 2% for a while. The Fed is now adamantly saying they are\n willing to be late this time,allowing the economy and inflation to run hotter than they would have in the old days. If that’s the case, then markets may be wrong because they still assume the old reaction function of the Fed. So we don’t know yet, but it’s possible that the Fed will stay dovish much longer than markets think.\n\nWhat would the consequences of this new Fed policy be?\n\n One conclusion is pretty obvious:\n The stock market has already gone crazy and will likely go even crazier.If you read the work of Charles Kindleberger, you know that asset bubbles are perennial, they grow back every ten years or so, and they are usually driven by easy monetary policy and lots of liquidity. So this new reaction function by the Fed, plus the support from fiscal policy, means that markets will go through a very bubbly period.\n\nHow big can this bubble get?\n\n If you look at history, all speculative bubbles got killed by tightening monetary policy.\n You never had a bubble burst while monetary policy was still easy.Asset bubbles pop when central banks tighten policy to a point of yield curve inversion. Today, we’re far away from that.\n That’s why I think this bubble could get a whole lot bigger.\n\nWould you say we’re only at the beginning of this process?\n\n I’d say we are in the early stages of a stock market bubble, especially in the United States.\n There are many signs of speculative behaviour,be it Bitcoin, Gamestop, and so on. But it’s not as pervasive yet as it was in the late 1990s. When the technology bubble burst in 2000, everybody was bullish. Today, many people, even large banks, are still bearish. When they throw in the towel, then the final phase will begin.\n This bubble is going to be a whole lot bigger than the 90s and it will probably run a whole lot longer than we think.\n\nYou don’t see the risk of the bond market assuming the job of tightening conditions by rising long term yields?\n\n Historically, rising yields hurt the economy and stock prices only when both the long and the short end of the curve were moving up. It’s usually not the case to see the long end of the curve move way up while short term rates remain pressed down, as they are today. There is a limit to the pain long term rates can create for the economy, because borrowers can always slide down the maturity curve to avoid having to pay higher interest rates.\n So if you put it all together, I think ten year yields can’t move much higher than their fair value, while short term rates remain at zero.\n\nWhat will happen then?\n\nThe most likely scenario I see today is that we’ll have an expanding equity bubble for the next two years, with multiples going way higher. Then comes the point where the Fed just can’t remain dovish anymore. They will raise rates. At that point, the end would be nigh. a bursting asset bubble would be inevitable, and this is always very deflationary. When that happens, we could see zero nominal yields in the U.S.\n\nLate last year, everyone was bearish on the dollar. Now the Greenback has surprised by strengthening since January. Why was that?\n\nDon’t forget that the dollar had dropped almost 11% last year.Getting into 2021, it was very oversold, jammed with shorts. So a natural rebound from this position was to be expected. Going forward, I see the prerequisites in place for a further weakening.\n In the last 20 years, every time the world economy slumped, the dollar strengthened, and every time the world economy got better, the dollar weakened. Right now, we see an improving world economy, hence the dollar should weaken.\n\nWhat’s the reason for that pattern?\n\nPeople say the dollar is a safe haven currency, but I don’t see it that way.The Yen and the Swiss Franc are much better safe havens. From the 1970s through the 1990s, the dollar was pro-cyclical, i.e. strengthening with a stronger world economy. This changed around the year 2000. The reason in my view is that large parts of the developed world are in a liquidity trap. And in a liquidity trap, there is infinite demand for dollars, because the dollar demand curve is flat. So every time where we have an economic slump, it means the liquidity trap is deepening, hence the demand for dollars is going up. And every time the economy gets better, the liquidity trap is getting shallower, with demand for dollars shrinking.\n So, if I take the view that the world economy in the second half of this year is starting a boom, then logically, we cannot have a stronger dollar. We have never had a booming world economy and a stronger dollar since 2000.\n\nWhen you look at world equity markets, which geographies and sectors currently offer the best opportunities?\n\n I am very value conscious, so\n I like European stocks, they have underperformed for a long time. I would overweight Germany, France and Italy; their valuations are way more attractive than the US market. If we have a world economic boom, these markets will do very well. The US is difficult to underweight, because it’s so huge, but on the fringe I would suggest to overweight non-US stocks, i.e. Europe and Japan.\n I think the Japanese market can have one last, big upleg before this bull market is over.\n\nAn economic boom and a lower dollar should be bullish for emerging markets, right?\n\n We must keep in mind that\n today’s emerging markets are very different from 20 years ago.Today, more than 40% of the MSCI EM index is made up by China. In China, the equity market is predominantly driven by big tech, with stocks like Alibaba and Tencent. So China has a similar issue like the US tech sector: In an environment of rising bond yields, these high-multiple stocks tend to underperform. Besides, China has begun to tighten policy, which is a negative for EM performance as a whole. I would shift more towards the commodity segment, meaning Latin America. They have been beaten down badly because of the Bolsonaro screwup in the pandemic crisis, but for every grief there is a price, and\n I think Brazilian assets are cheap enough to absorb all the negatives.I particularly like commodity markets like Chile. I also like Australia and Canada. These are places where value is better, and they are well positioned for rising commodity prices.\n\nWe see a world of inverted roles: After the financial crisis, China embarked on a huge monetary and fiscal stimulus. Today it’s the U.S., while China is tightening. What’s going on?\n\n If you look at\n the net increase in Chinese fiscal deficit in terms of fighting the pandemic, it was about 4.7% last year, as opposed to about 15% of GDP in the US.Of course, China got the pandemic under control earlier, but that’s not all. The key thing is, their fiscal deficit spending is 100% infrastructure, whereas in the Western world we talk about 10 to 20% of GDP being dumped into the system through transfer payments. The fiscal multiplier in China is huge, while in the US it is practically zero. The second thing is this:\n After 2008, China went on a construction spree, financed by an avalanche of credit creation. For ten years since then, the central government has been concerned about the economy getting overleveraged. This time, they are comparatively stingy and Beijing wants to slow down the credit creation process early.\n\nThe stock market in China is not happy about that.\n\nThe stock market is very sensitive to changes in liquidity conditions.If credit growth is slowing down, stocks perform poorly. So it’s not a great time to buy Chinese equities right now. But from a broader economic point of view, I don’t think we’ll see the kind of tightening shock in China like we saw in 2015. So even though it might not be a great time to buy stocks due to liquidity conditions, I think the Chinese economy will do reasonably well, which also means a good environment for commodity prices.\n\nWhat makes you confident that policy makers in China won’t commit a mistake and tighten too much?\n\n They have not created much credit excesses this time, so there is no reason for them to tighten aggressively.\n Geopolitically, the leadership in China has reached the conclusion that America is trying to suffocate the Chinese economy. So they have to maintain growth momentum by letting foreign investment money coming in.\n\nHas there been a change in thinking towards the US in Beijing since Joe Biden assumed the presidency?\n\nI think both sides are too far on the path of great power rivalry already.America represents the incumbent power, and China is the rising power that is challenging the US. I personally believe that\n we in the West don’t get the full picture of Sino-US confrontation. We only get the western side of the story,we never get to see the Chinese perspective through our media.\n\nWhat is the Chinese perspective?\n\nWithin China, there is a strong feeling that the Americans have destroyed the bilateral relationship to cater to purely domestic political needs,starting with Donald Trump. They feel that they are treated unfairly, in a confrontation that is unprovoked. Even when it comes to Hong Kong, we only know Beijing violated the concept of One Country Two Systems by imposing the new security law, but\n how about the social upheavals and civil unrest in the two years leading up to the change of law? No one said anything here. The US accused the Chinese of not playing by the rules, but the Chinese say they have played by the rules that were written by the US. They have joined the WTO and have slowly opened up their system. They signed the Paris Treaty. They have honoured all the international obligations, then Trump came and uprooted the very system that America had built. So the Chinese feel that the Americans suddenly want to change the rules again.\n The consensus in Beijing now is that the US wants to derail China. Once you have a consensus like that, it’s difficult to change.\n\nWill Biden continue on that path?\n\n Biden has inherited Trump’s policies. That’s unfortunate, but there’s not much he can do. Trump’s China policy served his domestic agenda, hitting China in order to score points at home. As a result of that, public opinion of China spiralled down. Biden can’t turn that back. And again,\n the consensus in China is that America wants to keep China down. We must prepare for a long confrontation.\n\nDo you see the risk of that confrontation turning hot?\n\nWashington is playing with the very nerve of the Chinese national interest, which is Taiwan.Since the beginning of bilateral diplomatic relations in the 1970s, one core commitment of the US was the One China Policy, avoiding official contact with the government in Taiwan. But Trump changed that, and Biden continues to follow the Trump script. This is very dangerous. Since 1979, there has been a tacit understanding on both sides that if the US does not encourage separation, the Chinese side will not resort to any military action. Now this tacit agreement has been thrown out of the window. Because Washington has seemingly encouraged official contacts with Taiwan, China feels the need to show their commitment to retake the island to maintain territorial integrity. That’s why we have incursions into Taiwanese air space practically every day. There is a reaction feedback going back and forth.\n I think there is a strong consensus among the Chinese leadership that within the next five years, if the US continues along this path, they might as well just take the risk of invading Taiwan. Then, all bets are off. The risk of some kind of confrontation is the highest in 40 years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":356,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":375956237,"gmtCreate":1619284204729,"gmtModify":1704722091679,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes","listText":"Yes","text":"Yes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/375956237","repostId":"1166519043","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":405,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344801573,"gmtCreate":1618392374692,"gmtModify":1704710098931,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy","listText":"Buy","text":"Buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/344801573","repostId":"2127454000","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":391,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":345595649,"gmtCreate":1618322652081,"gmtModify":1704709152847,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy","listText":"Buy","text":"Buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/345595649","repostId":"1150541075","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1150541075","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1618320851,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1150541075?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-13 21:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow falls slightly from record amid J&J vaccine pause","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1150541075","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Dow falls slightly from record amid J&J vaccine pause.Blockchain stocks rose.NovoCure surged about 5","content":"<ul><li>Dow falls slightly from record amid J&amp;J vaccine pause.</li><li>Blockchain stocks rose.</li><li>NovoCure surged about&nbsp;50%.</li></ul><p>(April 13)&nbsp;U.S. stocks opened mixed after a volatile premarket session Tuesday after public health agencies announced a temporary halt in the use of a COVID-19 vaccine from Johnson &amp; Johnson and inflation was stronger than analysts had forecast in March.</p><p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average&nbsp;fell 62 points, 0.2%, to open near 33,684, while the S&amp;P 500&nbsp;gained 1 point to open near 4,129.

Virgin Galactic</h2><p>Virgin Galactic's dream to crack the fast-growing space industry took a step backward after its most recent test flight failed to meet the company's objectives. In Dec. 2020, an onboard computer of Virgin Galactic's VSS Unity spaceplane failed to connect, halting the rocket motor as part of the vehicle's fail-safe mechanism.

With $666 million in cash and equivalents on its balance sheet at the end of 2020 set against management's expectation for negative free cash flow of $60 million in the first quarter of 2021, Virgin Galactic has plenty of financial runway before it launches commercial operations in 2022. And the potential market opportunity appears to be worth the wait.</p><p>According to analysts at <b>UBS</b>, the $400 billion space industry could double to $805 billion by 2030 -- with Virgin Galactic's target markets of hypersonic travel and space tourism representing $20 billion and $3 billion, respectively. Virgin Galactic is a great way to bet on these opportunities, because its suborbital flight technology works for both use cases. The company is also exploring opportunities in microgravity research, professional astronaut training, and transporting payloads for clients like NASA.</p><h2>2. Roblox</h2><p>With a market cap of $39 billion versus annual revenue of $924 million, Roblox boasts a sky-high price-to-sales multiple of 42 as of this writing.&nbsp;But the video game entertainment company deserves its premium price because of its rapid growth rate and game-changing business model.&nbsp;</p><p>Unlike traditional rivals such as&nbsp;<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZNGA\">Zynga</a></b>&nbsp;and<b>&nbsp;Electronic Arts</b>,<b>&nbsp;</b>which drive growth through expensive acquisitions and hyped-up blockbuster franchises, Roblox is a game creation platform that lets independent developers create much of the platform's content. This strategy allows the company to save on development costs while fueling growth by generating a massive amount of unique content for the Roblox \"metaverse.\"</p><p>Management expects full-year 2021 revenue to surge 60% to $1.48 billion (at the midpoint of guidance) despite daily active user (DAU) growth decelerating to between 6% and 12% (about 35.5 million users). The latter figure marks a significant decline from 2020 when DAUs grew 85%.</p><p>Roblox will have to work harder to expand its user base as coronavirus-related tailwinds fade. But the company's massive research and development budget -- $201 million in 2020 (or 22% of revenue) -- will help it regain momentum by investing in new growth drivers and customers outside of its current core audience of kids under age 13.&nbsp;</p><p>According to Chief Business Officer Craig Donato, Roblox plans to enable developers to build more sophisticated games that will appeal to a \"wider range of users.\"<i>&nbsp;</i>The platform is also experimenting with live music, as evidenced by a recent concert performed by rapper Lil Nas X entirely within Roblox. These new initiatives align with management's strategy to expand into older demographics, which could reboot user growth.</p><h2>Betting on a comeback</h2><p>Sometimes good companies hit speed bumps, but this doesn't necessarily derail their long-term plans for success. Virgin Galactic and Roblox are poised to bounce back better than ever because of their differentiated business models and massive growth opportunities in space travel and gaming.</p>","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>2 Top Growth Stocks to Buy in April</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\">\n2 Top Growth Stocks to Buy in April\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-09 19:26 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/09/2-top-growth-stocks-to-buy-in-april/><strong>Will Ebiefung</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Taking a chance on opportunities other investors may be overlooking is a great way to earn life-changing returns in the stock market.While Virgin Galactic (NYSE:SPCE) and Roblox (NYSE:RBLX) face near-...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/09/2-top-growth-stocks-to-buy-in-april/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SPCE":"维珍银河","RBLX":"Roblox Corporation"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/09/2-top-growth-stocks-to-buy-in-april/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2126084008","content_text":"Taking a chance on opportunities other investors may be overlooking is a great way to earn life-changing returns in the stock market.While Virgin Galactic (NYSE:SPCE) and Roblox (NYSE:RBLX) face near-term headwinds, both companies look poised for explosive growth in the burgeoning space tourism and video game industries.

But the company's massive research and development budget -- $201 million in 2020 (or 22% of revenue) -- will help it regain momentum by investing in new growth drivers and customers outside of its current core audience of kids under age 13. According to Chief Business Officer Craig Donato, Roblox plans to enable developers to build more sophisticated games that will appeal to a \"wider range of users.\" The platform is also experimenting with live music, as evidenced by a recent concert performed by rapper Lil Nas X entirely within Roblox. These new initiatives align with management's strategy to expand into older demographics, which could reboot user growth.Betting on a comebackSometimes good companies hit speed bumps, but this doesn't necessarily derail their long-term plans for success. Virgin Galactic and Roblox are poised to bounce back better than ever because of their differentiated business models and massive growth opportunities in space travel and gaming.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":266,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":341130664,"gmtCreate":1617790217258,"gmtModify":1704703160478,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Just buy only&nbsp;","listText":"Just buy only&nbsp;","text":"Just buy only","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/341130664","repostId":"1155592825","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1155592825","pubTimestamp":1617787968,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1155592825?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-07 17:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Best Stocks for 2021: Still Charging Up, Don’t Count NIO out Just Yet","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1155592825","media":"investorplace","summary":"Chinese electric vehicle (EV) makerNio(NYSE:NIO) hasn’t exactly wowed investors thus far in 2021.

The company enjoys stability through enormous scale and product diversity, but it is also delivering exceptional growth -- that's not common. For the first six months of fiscal 2021, total sales increased nearly 15% over the prior year. The company's Azure server products and cloud services grew 50% year over year in the most recent quarter.

Almost every business is tech-enabled now, and the inevitable growth of software as a service (SaaS), cybersecurity, and remote collaboration is a catalyst for cloud service providers.</p><p>Microsoft is in direct competition with fearsome heavy-hitters including<b>Amazon</b>,<b>Alphabet</b>, and Apple. That's certainly a risk. That said, Azure is second only to AWS in the cloud market, with 20% share. Encouragingly, it has actually gained market share over the past year. Microsoft will grow by merely maintaining share in the next decade, as cloud services are expected to expand nearly 20% annually.</p><p>At a forward P/E ratio of only 28.7, there's too much upside potential here relative to the risks associated with competition.

It's good to hold today, and it could be much larger in the future.MicrosoftMicrosoft(NASDAQ:MSFT)is famous for its Windows operating system and the Office software suite, but it is also one of the major players incloud services. The company also owns the networking and employment social media platform LinkedIn, has a large video game business, and sells the popular Surface brand of touchscreen computers.Microsoft has a rare combination of favorable characteristics. The company enjoys stability through enormous scale and product diversity, but it is also delivering exceptional growth -- that's not common. For the first six months of fiscal 2021, total sales increased nearly 15% over the prior year. The company's Azure server products and cloud services grew 50% year over year in the most recent quarter. That segment has expanded to exceed the revenue produced by Microsoft's flagship personal computing products. Almost every business is tech-enabled now, and the inevitable growth of software as a service (SaaS), cybersecurity, and remote collaboration is a catalyst for cloud service providers.Microsoft is in direct competition with fearsome heavy-hitters includingAmazon,Alphabet, and Apple. That's certainly a risk. That said, Azure is second only to AWS in the cloud market, with 20% share. Encouragingly, it has actually gained market share over the past year. Microsoft will grow by merely maintaining share in the next decade, as cloud services are expected to expand nearly 20% annually.At a forward P/E ratio of only 28.7, there's too much upside potential here relative to the risks associated with competition. Microsoft has the established business to make it a relatively safe stock, and it also provides growth potential to outpace the market.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":232,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":352164985,"gmtCreate":1616909043947,"gmtModify":1704799910097,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy","listText":"Buy","text":"Buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/352164985","repostId":"1119843211","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1119843211","pubTimestamp":1616770039,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1119843211?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-26 22:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"‘Bitcoin could be next domino to fall as investors rush to book profit,’ says technical analyst","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1119843211","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"Bitcoin prices were under pressure on Thursday, and the world’s No. 1 crypto could see further bearish pain in the near term if stocks continue to buckle, according to an analyst.At last check, bitcoin was changing hands at $51.743 on CoinDesk, with the asset briefly touching a low at $50,458.10 over the past 24 hours and trading around its lowest point in over two weeks.“If so, this could be further bad news for Bitcoin.

As such, the company’s stock price also surges well past our previous price target of $578.39. In this analysis, we determine if its impressive growth can continue and justify a higher valuation for the company.</p>\n<p>The main segments of the company contributing to its high growth were the Data center &amp; Gaming segment representing 40.2% and 46.5% of its total revenues respectively. We identified Nvidia’s AI leadership as a key advantage fuelling the growth across its data center segment capitalizing on rising data creation from AI, HPC and IoT applications with its AI leadership through its innovative products catered towards the booming cloud market. Besides data centers, gaming continues to be a key driver with its continuous performance improvements backed by new releases of next-generation GPU models contributing to rising pricing power to maintain ASP growth.</p>\n<p>Finally, we followed up on the Arm acquisition which is slated by management to conclude by early 2022. Through the acquisition of Arm, it not only earns incremental licensing revenue but also the ability to further leverage its CPU capabilities to develop and expand its range of Arm-based products including upcoming CPUs launches and the latest DPU SoCs. As the company is in the progress of obtaining regulatory clearance, we analysed the effect of the acquisition on the market competitiveness of the CPU markets.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/620b8212ee6f5ba62d2f6ac3f3e7be2c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Nvidia</span></p>\n<p><b>AI Leadership ensures High Growth Across Key Data Centre Segment</b></p>\n<p>The increasing volumes of data created will fuel&nbsp;data center&nbsp;growth over the next decade. An important aspect of this will be machine-to-machine and Artificial Intelligence ('AI') technologies that enable massive volumes of data to be processed with ease and speed. AI data processing is made possible by a system of linked supercomputers that are used to process complex workloads by running millions of simulations and financial models to generate predictions from massive volumes of data by identifying a pattern and then replicating that pattern identification across other data. As can be imagined,AI computing&nbsp;would require massive computing infrastructure.</p>\n<p>Driven by the advent of AI, HPC, IoT and edge computing,data creation&nbsp;is projected to grow at a rate of&nbsp;around&nbsp;23% in the next 5 years. This would require greater cloud infrastructure to handle the increase in data. To determine the growth in cloud infrastructure revenues, we identified the factor of correlation of cloud infrastructure revenues to data volume growth over the past 10 years.

To tackle this, enterprises are expected to bring applications and storage closer to themselves rather than transporting resources to a central location. As a result, large enterprises are more likely to build on-site data storage centers which require the use of an on-site fully built server system. This is where Nvidia’s latest DGX server comes into play. To put things in perspective, these aren’t the $500 GPU chipsets used in PCs. The GPU-enabled DGX servers are provided on a subscription model, with a single one&nbsp;costing&nbsp;a massive $4.3 million a year. As to the capability of DGX, its initial design was reported to have one of the world’s&nbsp;fastest&nbsp;AI workload speeds by the National Energy Research Scientific Computer Center (NERSC). Given both the first mover and technological advantage that Nvidia has, we see the company in a prime position to capture the on-premises server market in addition to the cloud server market. As such we expect the company’s data segment revenue as a percentage of total cloud capex to continue increasing at 3%.

From&nbsp;GPU&nbsp;Check, we obtained the average benchmark score of all GPU models released for each year to obtain an average score and the average performance increase at 22% per year. Then, the average performance increase is compared to the increase in Nvidia’s ASPs for each year to derive the ASP growth to performance growth factor average of 1.1x. This implies that Nvidia’s GPU performance increase can sustain its ASP growth at a factor of 1.1x. We believe this to be fair, given the company’s solid track record of continuous product development. Its next generation of GPUs with the Ampere Next architecture is expected to be launched next year with the anticipated RTX 4000&nbsp;series&nbsp;a successor to its current lineup. One of the major significant upgrades anticipated is the&nbsp;switch&nbsp;towards TSMC’s(NYSE:TSM)N5 process allowing even more GPU cores and transistors than the current Ampere GPUs manufactured on TSMC’s N7 and Samsung(OTC:SSNLF)8N process.

Should the deal go through, it would make it the most valuable semicon deal in history at $40 bln. Though, larger deals in the past have broken down due to antitrust. Out of 32 of the largestdealssince 2015, only 3 major deals above $1 bln have fallen apart representing a 9.3% rejection rateincludingKLA (KLAC) and Lam Research (LRCX) merger, Qualcomm (QCOM) acquisition of NXP(NASDAQ:NXPI)and Broadcom’s (AVGO) acquisition of Qualcomm. On the other hand, smaller deals valued at below $1 bln had fewer issues with antitrust. Of the 98 deals, only 4 deals were stopped by regulators which is a 4% rejection rate. This implies that larger deals attract greater scrutiny, which is negative for Nvidia considering it is the highest valued semicon deal.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f15f3619d3f243fbda6bedc37d7bb89c\" tg-width=\"482\" tg-height=\"246\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source:Design&amp;Reuse</span></p>\n<p><b>Acquisition Approval Risk</b></p>\n<p>Initially, the expectation of the Arm acquisition deal to go through is by Q1 2022 but subject to regulatory approval from various governmental bodies. There are several arguments that the deal might be delayed or would ultimately fail to get approval. Based on our previousanalysis, we highlighted several headwinds that could arise from regulators across various jurisdictions which include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Tensions between the US and China and to protect Arm China against possible intervention by foreign governments in the future</li>\n <li>The intention for the UK to protect its local industry and prioritize local jobs, technological expertise and intellectual property</li>\n <li>European authorities seeking to protect companies’ access to advanced technology and preserve sovereignty and independence</li>\n</ul>\n<p>While management stated its confidence that the Arm deal would go through as planned, these headwinds may pose a risk for the company to meet its deadline. In the Q2 2022 earnings briefing, Nvidia acknowledged the headwinds in obtaining regulatoryapprovalwhich is taking longer than initially thought.</p>\n<blockquote>\n We are working through the regulatory process, although some Arm licensees have expressed concerns and objected to the transaction, and discussions with regulators are taking longer than initially thought\n <i>- Nvidia CFOColette Kress</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p>A breakdown of the agreement could lead to the company incurring fees related to the failure of the acquisition. A couple of months ago, the deal faced several risks of beingdelayedas seen with the European regulator’s reluctance to consider the case until after the summer holidays to gather more information. Nvidia is reported to notify the European Commission in early September as the EU is set tolauncha formal probe into the deal. Also, the US FTC has been seeking to gather more information while Big Techs including Google, Microsoft, and Qualcomm complained about limiting competition. Whereas in China, the company applied with Chinese authorities but appears to be facing tensions with the axed CEO of Arm China which ischallengingthe company for unfair dismissal.</p>\n<p>It is believed that the agreement allows both companies to extend the deal to Q3 2022 but either party could walk away beyond that. That said, even the deal fails to go through, we believe that the company may be able to realize synergies anyway given its strong product development in the pipeline.</p>\n<p><b>Valuation</b></p>\n<p>The company has had an average revenue growth rate of 29.01% in the past 5 years with average gross and net margins of 61.05% and 28.4% respectively. The strength of its earnings and margins is its increasing margin as a result of lower COGS as a percentage of revenues which declined by 3.9% on average in the past 10 years. In comparison to other chipmakers, Nvidia’s gross margins are higher than the industry average of 47.2% and net margins of 13.2% which highlights its superior pricing power which saw ASPs rising by 25% on average in the past 6 years due to its dominance over the discrete GPU market.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3bfb1b7c9d729426c5e3c88230e32091\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Nvidia, Khaveen Investments</span></p>\n<p>In terms of cash flows, the company’s 5-year average FCF margin is 15.14% and has steadily increased as it grows its operating cash flows. Its margins appear to be volatile due to its investments in marketable securities with an inflow of $6.6 bln in 2019 and an outflow of $10 bln in 2020. However, excluding this, it has very high levels of cash generation with an adjusted average FCF margin of 29.1%.

Highlighting the advancement of its AI strategy around the data center markets, we believe it can capitalize on the booming cloud growth and increasing capex share to benefit its data center revenues. Additionally, despite the flattish shipment growth, we believe it can continue to grow its gaming revenues highlighting its consistent performance improvement with its next-gen Ampere Next based models. As it advances its AI strategy, it is looking to leverage Arm’s incredible CPU IP across its latest product R&amp;D for the data center for future launches. Compared to our previous analysis, we applied a quantitative P/S multiple to reflect its superb growth outlook as one of the highest in the industry. Based on our valuation model using a P/S multiple, its projected revenue growth rate of 59.6% in 2021 driven by strong growth momentum across gaming and data center segments provides an upside opportunity of 28.8% as its stock price has already increased by 71% year to date.

As such, the company’s stock price also surges well past our previous price target of $578.39. In this analysis, we determine if its impressive growth can continue and justify a higher valuation for the company.\nThe main segments of the company contributing to its high growth were the Data center & Gaming segment representing 40.2% and 46.5% of its total revenues respectively. We identified Nvidia’s AI leadership as a key advantage fuelling the growth across its data center segment capitalizing on rising data creation from AI, HPC and IoT applications with its AI leadership through its innovative products catered towards the booming cloud market. Besides data centers, gaming continues to be a key driver with its continuous performance improvements backed by new releases of next-generation GPU models contributing to rising pricing power to maintain ASP growth.\nFinally, we followed up on the Arm acquisition which is slated by management to conclude by early 2022. Through the acquisition of Arm, it not only earns incremental licensing revenue but also the ability to further leverage its CPU capabilities to develop and expand its range of Arm-based products including upcoming CPUs launches and the latest DPU SoCs. As the company is in the progress of obtaining regulatory clearance, we analysed the effect of the acquisition on the market competitiveness of the CPU markets.\nSource: Nvidia\nAI Leadership ensures High Growth Across Key Data Centre Segment\nThe increasing volumes of data created will fuel data center growth over the next decade. An important aspect of this will be machine-to-machine and Artificial Intelligence ('AI') technologies that enable massive volumes of data to be processed with ease and speed. AI data processing is made possible by a system of linked supercomputers that are used to process complex workloads by running millions of simulations and financial models to generate predictions from massive volumes of data by identifying a pattern and then replicating that pattern identification across other data. As can be imagined,AI computing would require massive computing infrastructure.\nDriven by the advent of AI, HPC, IoT and edge computing,data creation is projected to grow at a rate of around 23% in the next 5 years. This would require greater cloud infrastructure to handle the increase in data. To determine the growth in cloud infrastructure revenues, we identified the factor of correlation of cloud infrastructure revenues to data volume growth over the past 10 years. The factor identified of 1.65x was applied to data volume growth projections to estimate the cloud infrastructure market growth rate to the year 2025.\nSource: Statista, Khaveen Investments\n\n\n\nVolume of Data Worldwide\n2016\n2017\n2018\n2019\n2020\n2021F\n2022F\n2023F\n2024F\n2025F\n\n\nCloud Infrastructure Market Revenues ($ bln)\n32\n46.5\n69\n96\n129.5\n178.9\n246.3\n342.9\n470.6\n650.6\n\n\nCloud Infrastructure Market Revenue Growth %('a')\n52%\n45%\n48%\n39%\n35%\n38%\n38%\n39%\n37%\n38%\n\n\nData Volume (ZB)\n18\n26\n33\n41\n64.2\n79\n97\n120\n147\n181\n\n\nData Volume Growth %('b')\n16%\n44%\n27%\n24%\n57%\n23%\n23%\n24%\n23%\n23%\n\n\nCloud Infrastructure Revenue Growth/Data Volume Growth Factor('c')\n3.25\n1.02\n1.80\n1.61\n0.62\n1.65\n1.65\n1.65\n1.65\n1.65\n\n\n\n*A =C x B\nSource:Statista, Khaveen Investments\nAs mentioned, Artificial Intelligence ('AI') will play a crucial role in synthesizing and storing these waves of data. The race of AI computing technology is being led by semiconductor companies that create the chips that enable technology across all segments of the market. As such, innovations in AI have been especially expeditious in the semiconductor industry with several companies such as Nvidia, Intel and AMD developing significant AI capabilities in their chip systems.\nWe view Nvidia in particular, as not just an AI leader of the semiconductor industry, but as the AI leader of the world. Nvidia aims to develop AI solutions for every industry and is already well on the way there. It is the leader in autonomous vehicles, with its AI-enabled Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) being developed for global automakers, having already secured $8 bln in automotive design wins. Notwithstanding, Nvidia’s automotive segment only represents 3.2% of its revenues. Nvidia’s key data center segment that represents 40.2% of its revenues, is where the company’s AI leadership is really seen. The company recently announced that its AI-powered DGX server has been adopted by the top 10 Aerospace companies, 6 of the top 10 US banks, and 8 out of the 10 top global telcos.\nSource: Statista\nAs data volume and workload grow, it gets more difficult to transmit the data. To tackle this, enterprises are expected to bring applications and storage closer to themselves rather than transporting resources to a central location. As a result, large enterprises are more likely to build on-site data storage centers which require the use of an on-site fully built server system. This is where Nvidia’s latest DGX server comes into play. To put things in perspective, these aren’t the $500 GPU chipsets used in PCs. The GPU-enabled DGX servers are provided on a subscription model, with a single one costing a massive $4.3 million a year. As to the capability of DGX, its initial design was reported to have one of the world’s fastest AI workload speeds by the National Energy Research Scientific Computer Center (NERSC). Given both the first mover and technological advantage that Nvidia has, we see the company in a prime position to capture the on-premises server market in addition to the cloud server market. As such we expect the company’s data segment revenue as a percentage of total cloud capex to continue increasing at 3%. This was derived through our calculations by first estimating the total capex by the top 4 cloud providers (Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), Google (GOOG), Alibaba (BABA)) and adjusted by its market share as the total cloud capex.\n\n\n\nCloud Providers Capex ($ mln)\n2011\n2012\n2013\n2014\n2015\n2016\n2017\n2018\n2019\n2020\n\n\nAmazon\n3,785\n3,444\n4,893\n5,387\n7,804\n11,955\n13,427\n16,861\n40,140\n45,427\n\n\nMicrosoft\n2,355\n2,305\n4,257\n5,485\n5,944\n8,343\n8,129\n11,632\n13,925\n15,441\n\n\nGoogle\n3,438\n3,273\n7,358\n11,014\n9,950\n10,212\n13,184\n25,139\n23,548\n22,281\n\n\nAlibaba\n403\n768\n1,243\n1,680\n1,598\n3,129\n5,287\n4,596\n\n\nTotal (Top 4)\n9,578\n9,022\n16,911\n22,654\n24,941\n32,190\n36,338\n56,761\n82,900\n87,745\n\n\n\nSource: Nvidia, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Alibaba, Khaveen Investments\nWe then estimated the total cloud capex growth rate by basing it on the forecasted growth in the cloud infrastructure revenues on a 10-year average factor of 0.68x. With the growth in cloud capex, we computed Nvidia’s share of capex spending which has been growing at 3% on average in the past 7 years. Nvidia’s AI-powered GPU accelerators are deployed in more than 97% of all AI-accelerator hardware used by the top 4 cloud providers (Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and Alibaba). These top 4 cloud providers alone control 67%. Applying our estimated share of capex, we forecasted its total data center revenues growing at around 30%.\nSource: Nvidia, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Alibaba, Statista, Khaveen Investments\nContinuous Performance Excellence Leads to Continuous Pricing Premium\nNvidia’s Gaming segment revenue growth has averaged a stellar 27% in the past 7 years. The main contributor is rising ASPs which averaged 27% whereas shipments growth was flat. Although Nvidia accounts for 81% of the discrete GPU market share and steadily rising, its market share in the overall GPU market has declined slightly against AMD (AMD) and Intel (INTC) who also manufactures integrated GPUs but is planning to develop its Alchemist product while Nvidia only produces discrete chips.\nSource: Statista, JPR, Khaveen Investments\nBased on its stagnant share of the overall GPU market, this implies that demand for the integrated GPU market continues to remain strong. PC shipments grew at -0.8% within the same period. Whereas GPU unit shipments were lower than the PC shipment growth with an average of -2%. One of the attributable factors is the rising GPU costs relative to stagnant PC prices. In the past 5 years, Nvidia’s average ASP as a percentage of PC ASP has risen from 19% to 38%, making it harder for PC makers to cater to the mid-range and entry-level markets which presence remains stable. As costs continue to increase and Intel seeks to capitalize on its refreshed Intel Iris Xe integrated chips, we see Nvidia’s share of overall GPUs to decline and PC shipments CAGR of 3% through 2025.\n\n\n\nGaming PC Share of Market Revenues\n2016\n2020\n\n\nHigh End\n43%\n47%\n\n\nMid-Range\n35%\n34%\n\n\nEntry Level\n22%\n19%\n\n\n\nSource:JPR\nHowever, every year, Nvidia releases a new product lineup offering better performance against the previous models. From GPU Check, we obtained the average benchmark score of all GPU models released for each year to obtain an average score and the average performance increase at 22% per year. Then, the average performance increase is compared to the increase in Nvidia’s ASPs for each year to derive the ASP growth to performance growth factor average of 1.1x. This implies that Nvidia’s GPU performance increase can sustain its ASP growth at a factor of 1.1x. We believe this to be fair, given the company’s solid track record of continuous product development. Its next generation of GPUs with the Ampere Next architecture is expected to be launched next year with the anticipated RTX 4000 series a successor to its current lineup. One of the major significant upgrades anticipated is the switch towards TSMC’s(NYSE:TSM)N5 process allowing even more GPU cores and transistors than the current Ampere GPUs manufactured on TSMC’s N7 and Samsung(OTC:SSNLF)8N process. Even longer-term, the company’s roadmaps indicate continued innovation with the following generation of ‘Ampere Next Next’ expected in 2024 which could utilize TSMC’s N3 process.\nSource: Statista, GPU Checker, Khaveen Investments\nSource: Nvidia, Statista, JPR, GPU Checker\nAll in all, the main driver of gaming revenues is rising prices from continuous product development rather than unit shipments. Nonetheless, the robust demand on GPU shipments seen based on data from JPR indicates a major tailwind in 2021 and forecasted a growth rate of 36% based on the average GPU shipments growth rates of Q1 and Q2. Though we expect growth to normalize, and we based our shipment growth assumption beyond 2021 on a 3.5% CAGR through 2025. Also, accounting for Nvidia’s market share in GPUs, we derived its total unit shipment as well as ASP growth to forecast its total gaming revenue growth.\nSource: Nvidia, Statista, JPR\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnnualized Nvidia\n2016\n2017\n2018\n2019\n2020\n2021F\n2022F\n2023F\n2024F\n2025F\n\n\nShipments('a')\n34.76\n37.67\n33.58\n27.68\n31.95\n43.45\n44.97\n46.55\n48.18\n49.86\n\n\nShipments Growth %\n-1%\n8%\n-11%\n-18%\n15%\n36.0%\n3.5%\n3.5%\n3.5%\n3.5%\n\n\nASPs('b')\n116.8\n146.4\n186.1\n199.4\n242.8\n300.4\n371.5\n459.5\n568.3\n702.8\n\n\nASP Growth %\n45%\n25%\n27%\n7%\n22%\n24%\n24%\n24%\n24%\n24%\n\n\nGaming Revenues ($ mln)('c')\n4,060\n5,513\n6,250\n5,518\n7,759\n13,051\n16,707\n21,386\n27,377\n35,045\n\n\nGaming Revenues Growth %\n44.1%\n35.8%\n13.4%\n-11.7%\n40.6%\n68.2%\n28.0%\n28.0%\n28.0%\n28.0%\n\n\n\n*C = A x B\nSource: Nvidia,Statista,JPR,WCCF Tech\nGrowth From Arm Regardless of Acquisition Approval\nAlready a leading developer of GPUs, Nvidia is using its advantage in AI to produce a range of new products. It is acquiring Arm to leverage its CPU capabilities across key industries as seen with theexpansionof its Certified Systems with BlueField DPU SoCsfeaturing22 bln transistors and incorporating 16 Arm-based CPUs along with a 400 gigabits-per-second networking chip. The combination of both company’scapabilitieswith CPU from Arm and Mellanox networking solution for an advanced chip enhanced by is AI Enterprise software suite in partnership with VMware (VMW) vSphere creating a new market for Nvidia. The company has already received strong support fromcustomersincluding Dell Technologies (DELL), Inspur (OTC:INPRF), Lenovo (OTCPK:LNVGY) and Supermicro integrating its DPUs into their systems. Besides that, cloud service providers such as Baidu are using its DPUs to accelerate workloads. Additionally, it is also planning to enter the data centerCPUmarket with Nvidia Grace against incumbents Intel and AMD.\nThat said, the deal is pending regulatory approval and management isexpectingto obtain clearance by early 2022. The HHI index is a measure of market competitiveness commonlyusedby governmental bodies such as the FTC and the Department of Justice in M&A deals. It serves as guidance whether a deal would go through, or antitrust action would be taken depending on the concentration level.\n\n\n\nPost-Merger HHI\nChange from Premerger HHI\nAntitrust Action\n\n\nHHI < 1000Not concentrated,\nAny\nNo action likely\n\n\n1000 < HHI < 1800Moderately Concentrated,\n>100\nModerately Concentrated, Possible Action\n\n\n1800 < HHIHighly Concentrated,\n>50\nChallenge very Likely\n\n\n\nSource:OpenTextBC\nFor the Arm deal, the HHI calculation would be applied on the PC CPU and server market shares only as only Nvidia, AMD and Intel compete within the GPU markets. In Nvidia’s case, the HHI value for both markets would not change as it represents Arm’s share. For example, the PC CPU market HHI is valued at 4,312 in both pre-and post-acquisition.\nSource: Statista, PCMag\n\n\n\n\n\nSimilarly, the CPU market for servers would derive the same HHI score as the PC CPU market as Nvidia would replace Arm’s share. There is no change to the HHI score of 6,334.\nSource: Nextplatform, Itcandor\n\n\n\n\n\nIf we consider Nvidia’s planned entry to the server CPU market with the launch of Nvidia Grace. Even a small increase in share for Nvidia would lead to a reduction in the HHI value by 188. This highlights Intel’s incredibly high market share. Even if the deal does not go through, the market would still become more competitive. Thus, based on the change in HHI values, Nvidia has a rather unique case for the deal going through. It does not compete with Arm directly PC and server CPU markets, it would just take up Arm’s market share and would not lead to any change to the HHI. In fact, it could make the market even more competitive.\n\n Regulators are \"looking to ensure that their markets are pro-competitive, that this is pro-innovation… and this is good for customers. We can prove that and show that and demonstrate that overwhelmingly, so I have no concerns. -\n Jen-Hsun Huang,CEO of Nvidia\n\n\n\n\nServer CPU Market Share Pre-Acquisition\nShare\ns\ns^2\nServer CPU Post Acquisition\nShare\ns\ns^2\n\n\nIntel\n78%\n78\n6084\nIntel\n77%\n77\n5929\n\n\nAMD\n9%\n9\n81\nAMD\n8%\n8\n64\n\n\nArm\n13%\n13\n169\nArm\n12%\n12\n144\n\n\n-\nNvidia\n3%\n3\n9\n\n\nTotal\n6334\nTotal\n6146\n\n\n\nSource: Nextplatform, Itcandor, Khaveen Investments\nFurthermore, Nvidia’s acquisition comes at a time when M&A activity has risen in the semiconductor market with the average deal value rising by more than 5 times since 2015. Should the deal go through, it would make it the most valuable semicon deal in history at $40 bln. Though, larger deals in the past have broken down due to antitrust. Out of 32 of the largestdealssince 2015, only 3 major deals above $1 bln have fallen apart representing a 9.3% rejection rateincludingKLA (KLAC) and Lam Research (LRCX) merger, Qualcomm (QCOM) acquisition of NXP(NASDAQ:NXPI)and Broadcom’s (AVGO) acquisition of Qualcomm. On the other hand, smaller deals valued at below $1 bln had fewer issues with antitrust. Of the 98 deals, only 4 deals were stopped by regulators which is a 4% rejection rate. This implies that larger deals attract greater scrutiny, which is negative for Nvidia considering it is the highest valued semicon deal.\nSource:Design&Reuse\nAcquisition Approval Risk\nInitially, the expectation of the Arm acquisition deal to go through is by Q1 2022 but subject to regulatory approval from various governmental bodies. There are several arguments that the deal might be delayed or would ultimately fail to get approval. Based on our previousanalysis, we highlighted several headwinds that could arise from regulators across various jurisdictions which include:\n\nTensions between the US and China and to protect Arm China against possible intervention by foreign governments in the future\nThe intention for the UK to protect its local industry and prioritize local jobs, technological expertise and intellectual property\nEuropean authorities seeking to protect companies’ access to advanced technology and preserve sovereignty and independence\n\nWhile management stated its confidence that the Arm deal would go through as planned, these headwinds may pose a risk for the company to meet its deadline. In the Q2 2022 earnings briefing, Nvidia acknowledged the headwinds in obtaining regulatoryapprovalwhich is taking longer than initially thought.\n\n We are working through the regulatory process, although some Arm licensees have expressed concerns and objected to the transaction, and discussions with regulators are taking longer than initially thought\n - Nvidia CFOColette Kress\n\nA breakdown of the agreement could lead to the company incurring fees related to the failure of the acquisition. A couple of months ago, the deal faced several risks of beingdelayedas seen with the European regulator’s reluctance to consider the case until after the summer holidays to gather more information. Nvidia is reported to notify the European Commission in early September as the EU is set tolauncha formal probe into the deal. Also, the US FTC has been seeking to gather more information while Big Techs including Google, Microsoft, and Qualcomm complained about limiting competition. Whereas in China, the company applied with Chinese authorities but appears to be facing tensions with the axed CEO of Arm China which ischallengingthe company for unfair dismissal.\nIt is believed that the agreement allows both companies to extend the deal to Q3 2022 but either party could walk away beyond that. That said, even the deal fails to go through, we believe that the company may be able to realize synergies anyway given its strong product development in the pipeline.\nValuation\nThe company has had an average revenue growth rate of 29.01% in the past 5 years with average gross and net margins of 61.05% and 28.4% respectively. The strength of its earnings and margins is its increasing margin as a result of lower COGS as a percentage of revenues which declined by 3.9% on average in the past 10 years. In comparison to other chipmakers, Nvidia’s gross margins are higher than the industry average of 47.2% and net margins of 13.2% which highlights its superior pricing power which saw ASPs rising by 25% on average in the past 6 years due to its dominance over the discrete GPU market.\nSource: Nvidia, Khaveen Investments\nIn terms of cash flows, the company’s 5-year average FCF margin is 15.14% and has steadily increased as it grows its operating cash flows. Its margins appear to be volatile due to its investments in marketable securities with an inflow of $6.6 bln in 2019 and an outflow of $10 bln in 2020. However, excluding this, it has very high levels of cash generation with an adjusted average FCF margin of 29.1%. Thus, it is not only saving up for larger acquisitions in the future, but it indicates its solid profitability and earning power which would make it highly valuable even when growth slows down.\nSource: Nvidia, Khaveen Investments\nMoreover, the company has a strong balance sheet with a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.7x in 2020 with a high EBITDA interest coverage of 114x in the past 5 years indicating its solid ability to repay its debts. In comparison with other chipmaker competitors, its debt-to-equity is significantly lower than the average of 1.35x which highlights its advantage as a fabless chipmaker with a lean balance sheet.\nWe valued the company based on a P/S valuation due to its superb revenue growth as a rapidly growing company. To determine the appropriate P/S multiple to use, we calculated the average P/S ratio of the chipmakers according to their 5-year CAGR.\n\n\n\nAverage Chipmaker Revenue CAGR (5Yrs)\nPS Ratio\n\n\n35%+\n25.07\n\n\n30%-35%\n22.03\n\n\n25%-30%\n20.00\n\n\n20%-25%\n15.95\n\n\n15% -20%\n11.73\n\n\n10%-15%\n7.52\n\n\n0%-10%\n6.76\n\n\n\nSource: SeekingAlpha, Khaveen Investments\nFirstly, we forecasted its revenues through 2025 without including Arm based on Nvidia growth in gaming and data center as discussed above.

Highlighting the advancement of its AI strategy around the data center markets, we believe it can capitalize on the booming cloud growth and increasing capex share to benefit its data center revenues. Additionally, despite the flattish shipment growth, we believe it can continue to grow its gaming revenues highlighting its consistent performance improvement with its next-gen Ampere Next based models. As it advances its AI strategy, it is looking to leverage Arm’s incredible CPU IP across its latest product R&D for the data center for future launches. Compared to our previous analysis, we applied a quantitative P/S multiple to reflect its superb growth outlook as one of the highest in the industry. Based on our valuation model using a P/S multiple, its projected revenue growth rate of 59.6% in 2021 driven by strong growth momentum across gaming and data center segments provides an upside opportunity of 28.8% as its stock price has already increased by 71% year to date. Overall, we rate the company as aBuywith a target price of$288.45.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":436,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":365559783,"gmtCreate":1614763544042,"gmtModify":1704774894105,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy buy","listText":"Buy buy","text":"Buy buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/365559783","repostId":"1105186433","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1105186433","pubTimestamp":1614762863,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1105186433?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-03 17:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Growth Stocks to Buy if the Market Crashes","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1105186433","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"(March 3) Growth stocks have been the place to be over the past year as the stock market recovered f","content":"<p>(March 3)&nbsp;Growth stocks&nbsp;have been the place to be over the past year as the stock market recovered from the crash that marked the beginning of the pandemic in the U.S. Some stocks have delivered multi-hundred-percent returns in the matter of months, despite little or no change in long-term prospects.</p><p>The party won't last forever.

But the modular furniture trend seems likely to continue, and Lovesac is a leader.</p><p><b>2. Paycom Software</b></p><p>Paycom is a bit of an outlier when it comes tosoftware-as-a-service stocks.

While many SaaS companies pour cash into sales and marketing to boost growth at the expense of the bottom line, Paycom does not.</p><p>Revenue was up 12.3% in Paycom's third quarter, not a bad result given Paycom's customer base skews small. Paycom's target client size range is 50 to 5,000 employees, and some of those clients have been forced to decrease headcount due to the pandemic. This is hurting Paycom's recurring revenue, and it will continue to do so until headcounts return to pre-pandemic levels.</p><p>Despite the pandemic headwind, Paycom has remained solidly profitable. GAAP net income was $27.5 million in the third quarter, and the company spent just one-third of revenue on sales and marketing. Net income was down from the prior-year period, but that dip is likely just a pandemic-driven bump in the road for Paycom.</p><p>Other SaaS companies spend far more to acquire customers. Telemedicine company<b>Teladoc</b>, for example, poured nearly half of its revenue into sales and marketing in its latest quarter. SaaS giant<b>Salesforce</b>still spends around 45% of revenue on sales and marketing despite its size.</p><p>Paycom hasn't benefited from the pandemic, but the company has remained profitable and continued to grow. The stock is pricey, trading for over 25 times sales and over 150 times earnings. If the market heads lower and drags Paycom down with it, it's a stock to consider.</p><p></p>","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>2 Growth Stocks to Buy if the Market Crashes</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\">\n2 Growth Stocks to Buy if the Market Crashes\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-03-03 17:14 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/03/02/2-growth-stocks-to-buy-if-the-market-crashes/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>(March 3) Growth stocks have been the place to be over the past year as the stock market recovered from the crash that marked the beginning of the pandemic in the U.S. Some stocks have delivered multi...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/03/02/2-growth-stocks-to-buy-if-the-market-crashes/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PAYC":"Paycom Software, Inc.","LOVE":"Lovesac Co."},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/03/02/2-growth-stocks-to-buy-if-the-market-crashes/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1105186433","content_text":"(March 3) Growth stocks have been the place to be over the past year as the stock market recovered from the crash that marked the beginning of the pandemic in the U.S. Some stocks have delivered multi-hundred-percent returns in the matter of months, despite little or no change in long-term prospects.The party won't last forever.

That includes allowing listings of dual-class shares and attracting U.S.-listed Chinese companies to seek a secondary listing in Hong Kong, he said.\nHong Kong in 2020 was one of the top markets for listings globally as Chinese firms such as e-commerce giant JD.com and gaming company NetEase raised funds through secondary listings.\nIn total, the city’s stock exchange saw 132 initial public offerings worth $32.1 billion, and 199 further offerings worth $62.9 billion last year, according to data compiled by consultancy PwC.\nWith such “robust” capital markets activity, raising the trading stamp duty may offer Hong Kong “a quick solution” to increase its tax revenue in the short term, said Stanley Ho, a partner for corporate tax advisory at consultancy KPMG China.\n“However, it is also important for Hong Kong’s capital markets to stay competitive with global financial markets, many of which are trending towards reducing or removing such duties,” Ho said in a statement after Chan’s budget speech.\nChan said he remains confident of Hong Kong’s prospects as an international financial center.\nHe explained that the government is working on promoting Hong Kong as a center for sustainable and green finance, developing further the city’s fixed income markets and encouraging more activity in the asset and wealth management sectors.\nOn the stock market sell-off after his announcement of the trading tax hike, Chan said Hong Kong wasn’t the only one experiencing a “downward adjustment” following a previous run-up.\n“So, I would not be bothered by temporary fluctuations in the market. What we believe is we continue to work hard to enhance the offering of our market to further enhance the competitiveness and attractiveness of the Hong Kong market,” he said.\n“We will continue to attract inflow of international capital.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":29,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":356104362,"gmtCreate":1616761870356,"gmtModify":1704798510268,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/356104362","repostId":"2122759644","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":288,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":322069028,"gmtCreate":1615736818464,"gmtModify":1704786040479,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tesla all the way","listText":"Tesla all the way","text":"Tesla all the way","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/322069028","repostId":"1100128328","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1100128328","pubTimestamp":1615563404,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1100128328?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-12 23:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Stock Is Down.

Maybe not quite so.</p>\n<p>During the GameStop trading frenzy, some observers worried many rookie retail investors banding together on sites like Reddit’s WallStreetBets would bet big — a so-called “YOLO trade” in the forum’sslang— andend up losing badly.</p>\n<p>No doubt, this wasa serious event that rocked the stock market, bringing it “dangerously close” to collapse, according to Thomas Peterffy, founder and chairman of Interactive Brokers Group.</p>\n<p>But at a closely-watched congressional hearing Thursday on the rise and fall of GameStop shares and other so-called “meme stocks,” statements by one of the key players in the trading firestorm revealed that young investors generally aren’t betting big to reap quick gains.</p>\n<p>“Contrary to some very misleading and highly uninformed reports, we see evidence that most of our customers are investing for the long term,” said Vlad Tenev, CEO of Robinhood, the popular trading platform that caughtmassive irefor temporarily restricting trades on GameStopGME,-11.43%,AMC EntertainmentAMC,-0.72%and several other companies. As the hearing continued, he repeated that point under lawmaker questions.</p>\n<p>“What we see is generally not consistent with popular memes suggesting that most of our brokerage customers are unsophisticated day traders taking inordinate risks with large sums of money on complex financial products,”Tenev wrote in prepared testimony submitted ahead of the hearing,pushing back on the idea that his companyencouraged reckless tradingon a platform with 13 million users.</p>\n<p>Just 2% of Robinhood users qualified as “pattern day traders” who made four or more trades within five business days, he said. Thirteen percent traded basic options contracts, which can be higher risk, higher reward than straight-ahead buying or selling.</p>\n<p>In the face of some pointed questions, he also insisted Robinhood isn’t trying to turn the user experience into a game. “We know investing is serious and that’s why most of our customers are buy and hold,” he said.</p>\n<p>(Before the GameStop saga, Massachusetts state regulators filed a complaint against Robinhood for allegedly making trading seem too fun until loses occur. The company previously said itdisputes the allegation.)</p>\n<p>Tenev and lawmakershave sparredon what Robinhood should and shouldn’t have done during the GameStop saga. GameStop shares once traded at a high point of $483. By Thursday’s market close, GameStop shares were $40.69.</p>\n<p>But either way, Tenev’s testimony gave an interesting peek at who the newest retail investors are and how much money they are pouring into the market.

Maxine Waters, who chairs the House Financial Services Committee. “In this instance, many retail investors appeared motivated by a desire to beat Wall Street at its own game and given the losses that many retail investors have sustained as a result of volatility in the system, there are many whose beliefs that the system is rigged against them has been reinforced.”</p>\n<p>The GameStop saga was a “fundamental change,” said Rep. Patrick McHenry, the ranking Republican on the committee. The swell in trading was propelled by social media and a wealth of new information at investors’ fingertips.</p>\n<p>“I think if we’ve learned anything from these past few weeks, it’s that these average everyday investors are pretty darn sophisticated,” McHenry said. “There is wisdom to the crowd.”</p>\n<p>The government needs to make it easier for everyday investors to buy into the market, he said. “Instead of shutting the American public out through new regulations, new forms of taxation or so-called protections, let’s use this opprotunity to side with them.”</p>\n<p>One of the witnesses was Keith Gill, a 34-year-old independent investor with online handles like “Roaring Kitty” who turned his GameStop investment into millions.

Maybe not quite so.\nDuring the GameStop trading frenzy, some observers worried many rookie retail investors banding together on sites like Reddit’s WallStreetBets would bet big — a so-called “YOLO trade” in the forum’sslang— andend up losing badly.\nNo doubt, this wasa serious event that rocked the stock market, bringing it “dangerously close” to collapse, according to Thomas Peterffy, founder and chairman of Interactive Brokers Group.\nBut at a closely-watched congressional hearing Thursday on the rise and fall of GameStop shares and other so-called “meme stocks,” statements by one of the key players in the trading firestorm revealed that young investors generally aren’t betting big to reap quick gains.\n“Contrary to some very misleading and highly uninformed reports, we see evidence that most of our customers are investing for the long term,” said Vlad Tenev, CEO of Robinhood, the popular trading platform that caughtmassive irefor temporarily restricting trades on GameStopGME,-11.43%,AMC EntertainmentAMC,-0.72%and several other companies. As the hearing continued, he repeated that point under lawmaker questions.\n“What we see is generally not consistent with popular memes suggesting that most of our brokerage customers are unsophisticated day traders taking inordinate risks with large sums of money on complex financial products,”Tenev wrote in prepared testimony submitted ahead of the hearing,pushing back on the idea that his companyencouraged reckless tradingon a platform with 13 million users.\nJust 2% of Robinhood users qualified as “pattern day traders” who made four or more trades within five business days, he said. Thirteen percent traded basic options contracts, which can be higher risk, higher reward than straight-ahead buying or selling.\nIn the face of some pointed questions, he also insisted Robinhood isn’t trying to turn the user experience into a game. “We know investing is serious and that’s why most of our customers are buy and hold,” he said.\n(Before the GameStop saga, Massachusetts state regulators filed a complaint against Robinhood for allegedly making trading seem too fun until loses occur. The company previously said itdisputes the allegation.)\nTenev and lawmakershave sparredon what Robinhood should and shouldn’t have done during the GameStop saga. GameStop shares once traded at a high point of $483. By Thursday’s market close, GameStop shares were $40.69.\nBut either way, Tenev’s testimony gave an interesting peek at who the newest retail investors are and how much money they are pouring into the market. After all, retail investors were already increasingly entering the stock market before the GameStop drama started.\nFifty-five percent of Americans directly own stock, according to aGallup surveylast year, while 32% of 18- to 29-year-olds said they owned stock.\nThe median age of Robinhood investors is 31 and half of users say they are first-time investors.

A lot of people say their positions in flashy technology companies are meant to be long-term holdings, but they're really just an effort to make a quick buck. And that's OK. Any profitable trade is technically a good trade. If you can get in and out at the right time, so be it.</p>\n<p>Thing is, there are plenty of tech names that are more than just flash-in-the-pan prospects, and are better suited for holding periods measured in years rather than weeks.</p>\n<p>Here's a closer look at three such technology companies. Not only will they be just as impressive 10 years from now as they are today, but their stocks should be trading at much higher prices.</p>\n<h2>Microsoft</h2>\n<p>It's tough to imagine a world without <b>Microsoft</b> (NASDAQ:MSFT). Its Windows operating system is installed on three-fourths of the world's desktops and laptops, according to GlobalStats, and its Office productivity software remains the gold standard for the category. <b>Sony</b>'s PlayStation gaming console enjoys more worldwide market share than Microsoft's Xbox, but the Xbox is closing the gap, and is still the most popular game console in the U.S.</p>\n<p>And these are things consumers can readily see. There's a whole different unseen array of Microsoft-made products that are doing similarly well. For instance, Canalys reports Microsoft's cloud computing business accounted for a second-best 19% of the world's first-quarter cloud infrastructure spending, and the company continues to close the gap with market-leader <b>Amazon</b>.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/362a8a5cb8d412d4e3895fa185d236b7\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"484\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<p>Now take a step back and ask a thoughtful, critical question: Is there any chance the world will have less need for computers, cloud computing, productivity software, or game consoles 10 years from now?</p>\n<p>Any reasonable and realistic answer has to be \"no.\" Indeed, it would be surprising if demand for these products and services wasn't considerably greater a decade from now. Being a market leader in multiple categories, Microsoft can steer the market's ongoing growth in a way that serves itself best. For example, the Windows operating system comes with trial versions of Office software pre-installed.</p>\n<p>Bolstering the bullish argument for long-term ownership of Microsoft is the company's evolving business model. Access to Azure, Office, and even video games can now be utilized on a monthly subscription basis, accessible via the cloud. This shift not only makes the company's products more affordable to begin using but also gives Microsoft a better chance of keeping those customers by making it easy to update and upgrade software.</p>\n<p>Last year, the last time Microsoft disclosed such data, it had already lined up more than $100 billion worth of subscription cloud revenue that had yet to be booked -- a figure that continues to edge upward.</p>\n<h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PANW\">Palo Alto Networks</a></h2>\n<p>Even after several high-profile cybersecurity gaffes embarrassed organizations ranging from <b>Target </b>to <b>Equifax</b> to Yahoo!, some of the world's most important companies are still being hacked. Most recently, Colonial Pipeline agreed to fork over $4.4 million to a computer hacking group known as Darkside to regain control of its 5,500 miles worth of refined oil pipelines.</p>\n<p>These things are preventable. They're just not being prevented, as too many organizations don't utilize all the digital defenses available to them. Perhaps the Colonial Pipeline debacle will encourage procurement of this protection.</p>\n<p>Enter <b>Palo Alto Networks</b> (NYSE:PANW). Simply put, Palo Alto offers software preventing unauthorized access to a company's network, internal apps, and data. It's even got a ransomware protection solution in its lineup that might have been able to save Colonial Pipeline a few million bucks.</p>\n<p>The opportunity is incredible, and should remain so for a while. P&amp;S Intelligence believes the cybersecurity market will grow at an average annual pace of 12.6%, from 2019's $120 billion to $434 billion by 2030. That's a lot, but it's only a fraction of the $10.5 trillion that Cybersecurity Ventures believes cybercrime will cost the world in 2025 alone if enterprises don't step up their digital defense games.</p>\n<p>Palo Alto is doing fine, logging more than seven consecutive years of rising revenue as more and more outfits build their digital moats. Given the outlook, more of the same kind of growth is in the cards for a while.</p>\n<h2>International Business Machines</h2>\n<p>Finally, add <b>International Business Machines</b> (NYSE:IBM) to your list of technology stocks to buy and hold for the next decade.</p>\n<p>Yes, this is the same IBM that failed to respond to the advent of things like cloud computing, mobile devices, and all that goes with both. The company's \"strategic imperatives\" plan unveiled in 2015 was meant to steer the company away from a legacy mainframe business that was already dying and toward more contemporary opportunities like the aforementioned cloud and mobile security. By and large, though, it was too little too late.</p>\n<p>The IBM of today, however, isn't the IBM from even as recently as two years ago. It's ready to compete where it counts.</p>\n<p>Take last month's revelation of new technologies capable of fabricating a 2-nanometer microchip as an example. The microscopic measure is in reference to how small a chip's transistors can be made and still function properly. The smaller, the better, as smaller transistors consume less power, operate faster, and require less space when room is a factor. For perspective, 7-nanometer chips are the best the market has to offer right now.</p>\n<p>It's not just more functional chips IBM is starting to develop, either. Just within the past few weeks, the company has unveiled a way for data centers to more efficiently store and retrieve data, and launched AutoSQL, which is capable of retrieving data eight times faster than previous approaches are. Both technologies have a myriad of potential uses, including in the artificial intelligence arena.</p>\n<p>Read between the lines. This isn't yesteryear's IBM.</p>\n<p>It could still take years for the company to fully monetize these and other breakthroughs, but they're worth the wait.</p>","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 Technology Stocks You Can Buy and Hold for the Next Decade</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 Technology Stocks You Can Buy and Hold for the Next Decade\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-04 23:31 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/06/04/3-technology-stocks-you-can-buy-and-hold-for-the-n/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Let's be honest.

Its Windows operating system is installed on three-fourths of the world's desktops and laptops, according to GlobalStats, and its Office productivity software remains the gold standard for the category. Sony's PlayStation gaming console enjoys more worldwide market share than Microsoft's Xbox, but the Xbox is closing the gap, and is still the most popular game console in the U.S.\nAnd these are things consumers can readily see. There's a whole different unseen array of Microsoft-made products that are doing similarly well. For instance, Canalys reports Microsoft's cloud computing business accounted for a second-best 19% of the world's first-quarter cloud infrastructure spending, and the company continues to close the gap with market-leader Amazon.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nNow take a step back and ask a thoughtful, critical question: Is there any chance the world will have less need for computers, cloud computing, productivity software, or game consoles 10 years from now?\nAny reasonable and realistic answer has to be \"no.\" Indeed, it would be surprising if demand for these products and services wasn't considerably greater a decade from now. Being a market leader in multiple categories, Microsoft can steer the market's ongoing growth in a way that serves itself best. For example, the Windows operating system comes with trial versions of Office software pre-installed.\nBolstering the bullish argument for long-term ownership of Microsoft is the company's evolving business model. Access to Azure, Office, and even video games can now be utilized on a monthly subscription basis, accessible via the cloud. This shift not only makes the company's products more affordable to begin using but also gives Microsoft a better chance of keeping those customers by making it easy to update and upgrade software.\nLast year, the last time Microsoft disclosed such data, it had already lined up more than $100 billion worth of subscription cloud revenue that had yet to be booked -- a figure that continues to edge upward.\nPalo Alto Networks\nEven after several high-profile cybersecurity gaffes embarrassed organizations ranging from Target to Equifax to Yahoo!, some of the world's most important companies are still being hacked. Most recently, Colonial Pipeline agreed to fork over $4.4 million to a computer hacking group known as Darkside to regain control of its 5,500 miles worth of refined oil pipelines.\nThese things are preventable. They're just not being prevented, as too many organizations don't utilize all the digital defenses available to them. Perhaps the Colonial Pipeline debacle will encourage procurement of this protection.\nEnter Palo Alto Networks (NYSE:PANW). Simply put, Palo Alto offers software preventing unauthorized access to a company's network, internal apps, and data. It's even got a ransomware protection solution in its lineup that might have been able to save Colonial Pipeline a few million bucks.\nThe opportunity is incredible, and should remain so for a while. P&S Intelligence believes the cybersecurity market will grow at an average annual pace of 12.6%, from 2019's $120 billion to $434 billion by 2030. That's a lot, but it's only a fraction of the $10.5 trillion that Cybersecurity Ventures believes cybercrime will cost the world in 2025 alone if enterprises don't step up their digital defense games.\nPalo Alto is doing fine, logging more than seven consecutive years of rising revenue as more and more outfits build their digital moats. Given the outlook, more of the same kind of growth is in the cards for a while.\nInternational Business Machines\nFinally, add International Business Machines (NYSE:IBM) to your list of technology stocks to buy and hold for the next decade.\nYes, this is the same IBM that failed to respond to the advent of things like cloud computing, mobile devices, and all that goes with both. The company's \"strategic imperatives\" plan unveiled in 2015 was meant to steer the company away from a legacy mainframe business that was already dying and toward more contemporary opportunities like the aforementioned cloud and mobile security. By and large, though, it was too little too late.\nThe IBM of today, however, isn't the IBM from even as recently as two years ago. It's ready to compete where it counts.\nTake last month's revelation of new technologies capable of fabricating a 2-nanometer microchip as an example. The microscopic measure is in reference to how small a chip's transistors can be made and still function properly. The smaller, the better, as smaller transistors consume less power, operate faster, and require less space when room is a factor. For perspective, 7-nanometer chips are the best the market has to offer right now.\nIt's not just more functional chips IBM is starting to develop, either. Just within the past few weeks, the company has unveiled a way for data centers to more efficiently store and retrieve data, and launched AutoSQL, which is capable of retrieving data eight times faster than previous approaches are. Both technologies have a myriad of potential uses, including in the artificial intelligence arena.\nRead between the lines. This isn't yesteryear's IBM.\nIt could still take years for the company to fully monetize these and other breakthroughs, but they're worth the wait.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":576,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":377586533,"gmtCreate":1619535900522,"gmtModify":1704725631875,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/377586533","repostId":"1123159959","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":328,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":375956237,"gmtCreate":1619284204729,"gmtModify":1704722091679,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes","listText":"Yes","text":"Yes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/375956237","repostId":"1166519043","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":405,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":345595649,"gmtCreate":1618322652081,"gmtModify":1704709152847,"author":{"id":"3574322040124399","authorId":"3574322040124399","name":"Bradan","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb7aa62aecabfd15d4222728e89bb1e4","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy","listText":"Buy","text":"Buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/345595649","repostId":"1150541075","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1150541075","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1618320851,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1150541075?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-04-13 21:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow falls slightly from record amid J&J vaccine pause","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1150541075","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Dow falls slightly from record amid J&J vaccine pause.Blockchain stocks rose.NovoCure surged about 5","content":"<ul><li>Dow falls slightly from record amid J&amp;J vaccine pause.</li><li>Blockchain stocks rose.</li><li>NovoCure surged about&nbsp;50%.</li></ul><p>(April 13)&nbsp;U.S. stocks opened mixed after a volatile premarket session Tuesday after public health agencies announced a temporary halt in the use of a COVID-19 vaccine from Johnson &amp; Johnson and inflation was stronger than analysts had forecast in March.</p><p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average&nbsp;fell 62 points, 0.2%, to open near 33,684, while the S&amp;P 500&nbsp;gained 1 point to open near 4,129.

Numerous investors worldwide know him as the long-serving Chief Strategist of BCA Research.</p>\n<p>Today, Zhao is confident about equity markets. He sees the ingredients for a strong recovery in the global economy, and he believes fears of higher inflation are overblown. He sees the potential for the Federal Reserve's monetary policy to inflate a new speculative bubble.<i><b>«This bubble is going to be a whole lot bigger than the tech bubble of the late nineties, and it will probably run a whole lot longer than we think»,</b></i>says Zhao in an in-depth conversation with The Market NZZ.</p>\n<p><b>His main concern is the growing conflict between the United States and China.</b>Today, the risk of escalation over Taiwan is greater than at any time in the last 40 years, Zhao warns.</p>\n<p>Mr. Zhao, in February and March, we have witnessed a sharp upward move in long term US bond yields, temporarily causing a sell-off in the Nasdaq. What do you make of this?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Whenever bond yields rise, you should conceptually decompose this movement into two stages. One is reflective, meaning\n <b>the bond market is trying to tell you something about the underlying economy.</b>Rising bond yields are reflective of stronger economic growth. However, a market selloff could also move into a phase where bond yields become too high, constraining economic activity. In my judgement, what we are witnessing right now is purely reflective. The ISM manufacturing index is at its highest level since 1983, the world economy is in a strong recovery mode. Higher yields are consistent with the economy getting stronger. Under these circumstances, I would be more concerned if bond yields did not rise.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Aren’t rising inflation expectations also playing a part?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>I don’t see a clear breakout in inflation expectations.</b>People forget that during the decade after the global financial crisis, inflation expectations have fallen apart. Markets became much more concerned about deflation. Inflation breakeven rates currently are between 2 and 2.2%, whereas the average range during the decade before 2009 was more like 2.5 to 3%. So inflation expectations are simply in the process of being normalized.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Do you see room for a further rise in yields?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Our model says ten year Treasury yields are pretty much at fair value today, at around 1.5%. But we know that if we have a cyclical move in financial markets, nothing stops at fair value. Markets always undershoot or overshoot. So I could see yields rise towards 2% or even a bit more.\n <b>If they approach 2%, we would be active buyers of long term Treasuries.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Don’t you see structural inflation building up?</p>\n<blockquote>\n No, not at all. There is a widespread misunderstanding of this issue. Many people look at the fiscal position of the United States and see a budget deficit of almost 20% of GDP. The Fed balance sheet has expanded by $7 trillion since the beginning of the pandemic, M2 has exploded upward.\n <b>How can this not be inflationary? Well, in my experience, something that is too obvious is usually wrong.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>How so?</p>\n<blockquote>\n What happened is this: For all of 2020, the US government unleashed $3.5 trillion in various rescue packages, as a result of which the federal government debt rose by $3.6 trillion. At the same time, the household sector’s disposable income increased by $3.5 trillion, and household savings shot up by $5.5 trillion. In other words, American households not only saved up all the transfer payments they received from the government, but they even saved $2 trillion more from their own income.\n <b>These rescue programs did absolutely nothing to generate aggregate final demand or GDP growth. What we have seen was not a fiscal stimulus to boost aggregate demand, but a transfer payment. This was no different than a one-time tax cut.</b>We know that people’s spending behaviour is determined by their outlook for sustainable income.\n <b>If you give them a one-time tax cut, they will save it. This is what the Permanent Income Hypothesis says and this is what has happened.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Don’t you think there is a huge amount of pent-up demand that will be released once the economy fully reopens?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Yes, there will be a demand surge. Consumption spending has been repressed for over a year as a result of Covid-19 related restrictions. When the world economy reopens, this spending will be released. But this is not inflationary, as the boom will be temporary. People won’t party for the next twenty years. They will party for the next six months or so.\n <b>For inflation to be a true threat, you need aggregate demand exceeding aggregate supply on a sustainable basis. I don’t see that happening any time soon.</b>The government subsidies simply amount to a huge balance sheet swap: government debt as a share of GDP has gone up, while consumers’ net worth has gone up even more. This balance sheet swap has nothing to do with excessive aggregate demand.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Does that also mean you don’t see a structural bear market for bonds, where yields would drift higher over the coming years?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Correct,\n <b>I don’t see the drivers for structurally higher yields.</b>That’s why I think that ten-year Treasury yields above 2% would represent a good buying opportunity.\n</blockquote>\n<p>What would it take for you to change your mind?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>I will change my mind if the government took over and built lots of roads and bridges and have it all financed by the Fed.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Isn’t that what the $2.3 trillion Biden infrastructure plan will do?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>This proposed package is a step towards that kind of transition. But don’t forget, this is a rather small piece of cake, because it envisions spending roughly $2.2 trillion over eight years, so each year it would add only about 0.8 or 0.9% of GDP adjusted for inflation.</b>On top of that, Biden is proposing higher taxes to fund it. So his infrastructure plan creates some growth on one hand, while taking it away with higher taxes on the other hand. Its net impact will only be around 0.4 or 0.5% of GDP per year. This won’t be a game changer in terms of inflation.\n</blockquote>\n<p>What else would tell you that we are indeed moving through a profound transition towards higher inflation and higher interest rates?</p>\n<blockquote>\n In my view,\n <b>central banks have been completely wrong in their thinking about the Phillips Curve for the past 30 years,</b>meaning that every time the labor market got too strong, they felt they had to raise rates, because they feared wage inflation would kick in. But we know now that there are a lot of things standing in the way between a strong labor market and actual wage inflation. In an environment of rising productivity, you can have higher wages and still lower inflation.\n <b>Fundamentally speaking, free market capitalism is deflationary.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Why?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>Neither you nor I are paid more than our marginal output. In our society as a whole, labor is always paid at or below its marginal output. In a socialist economy, it’s the other way round, because workers are usually paid more than their marginal output. So unless we change our system into a much more socialist type, and unless we had a substantial decline in labor productivity, I don’t see a return of structural inflation.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>What is different today compared to the 1970s, when we had structural inflation in our Western economies?</p>\n<blockquote>\n In the 1970s, we had powerful unions in the US which drove up labor cost but kept productivity low. This was the legacy of President Roosevelt’s New Deal which, in my view, was very socialist. In addition, you had a collapse in the Bretton Woods System which drove down the Dollar by 50%, leading to a spike in goods price inflation.\n <b>Finally, the US was a manufacturing power in the 1970s and the oil crisis created enormous stagflation pressures. None of this is true today.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>There is a tug of war going on between the Fed and financial markets: The Fed says they will stay dovish for a long time, while markets expect a lift-off in short term rates next year. Who is right?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>If you think about last decade, Fed policy was always too tight: The projected interest rate path by the Fed, as seen by the so-called Dot Plots, was always higher than market expectations.</b>Because of that, we had a number of financial tremors: The taper tantrum in 2013, the collapse in commodity prices in 2015, the collapse in stock markets in late 2018. We had almost ten years of undershooting inflation and periodic stock market chaos as a result of monetary policy being too tight. In the end, the Fed always caved in and moved towards the market.\n <b>Now it’s the other way round: The Fed is more dovish than market expectations. The market has priced in four or five rate hikes through 2023, while the Fed suggests they won’t do anything before 2024.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Which side is right?</p>\n<blockquote>\n If you only looked at the lessons of the last decade, you’d say the market is right. But\n <b>the difference today is that the Fed has abandoned its old reaction function and wants to stay ultra-stimulative</b>until inflation is above 2% for a while. The Fed is now adamantly saying they are\n <b>willing to be late this time,</b>allowing the economy and inflation to run hotter than they would have in the old days. If that’s the case, then markets may be wrong because they still assume the old reaction function of the Fed. So we don’t know yet, but it’s possible that the Fed will stay dovish much longer than markets think.\n</blockquote>\n<p>What would the consequences of this new Fed policy be?</p>\n<blockquote>\n One conclusion is pretty obvious:\n <b>The stock market has already gone crazy and will likely go even crazier.</b>If you read the work of Charles Kindleberger, you know that asset bubbles are perennial, they grow back every ten years or so, and they are usually driven by easy monetary policy and lots of liquidity. So this new reaction function by the Fed, plus the support from fiscal policy, means that markets will go through a very bubbly period.\n</blockquote>\n<p>How big can this bubble get?</p>\n<blockquote>\n If you look at history, all speculative bubbles got killed by tightening monetary policy.\n <b>You never had a bubble burst while monetary policy was still easy.</b>Asset bubbles pop when central banks tighten policy to a point of yield curve inversion. Today, we’re far away from that.\n <b>That’s why I think this bubble could get a whole lot bigger.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Would you say we’re only at the beginning of this process?</p>\n<blockquote>\n I’d say we are in the early stages of a stock market bubble, especially in the United States.\n <b>There are many signs of speculative behaviour,</b>be it Bitcoin, Gamestop, and so on. But it’s not as pervasive yet as it was in the late 1990s. When the technology bubble burst in 2000, everybody was bullish. Today, many people, even large banks, are still bearish. When they throw in the towel, then the final phase will begin.\n <b>This bubble is going to be a whole lot bigger than the 90s and it will probably run a whole lot longer than we think.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>You don’t see the risk of the bond market assuming the job of tightening conditions by rising long term yields?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Historically, rising yields hurt the economy and stock prices only when both the long and the short end of the curve were moving up. It’s usually not the case to see the long end of the curve move way up while short term rates remain pressed down, as they are today. There is a limit to the pain long term rates can create for the economy, because borrowers can always slide down the maturity curve to avoid having to pay higher interest rates.\n <b>So if you put it all together, I think ten year yields can’t move much higher than their fair value, while short term rates remain at zero.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>What will happen then?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>The most likely scenario I see today is that we’ll have an expanding equity bubble for the next two years, with multiples going way higher. Then comes the point where the Fed just can’t remain dovish anymore. They will raise rates. At that point, the end would be nigh. a bursting asset bubble would be inevitable, and this is always very deflationary. When that happens, we could see zero nominal yields in the U.S.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Late last year, everyone was bearish on the dollar. Now the Greenback has surprised by strengthening since January. Why was that?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>Don’t forget that the dollar had dropped almost 11% last year.</b>Getting into 2021, it was very oversold, jammed with shorts. So a natural rebound from this position was to be expected. Going forward, I see the prerequisites in place for a further weakening.\n <b>In the last 20 years, every time the world economy slumped, the dollar strengthened, and every time the world economy got better, the dollar weakened. Right now, we see an improving world economy, hence the dollar should weaken.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>What’s the reason for that pattern?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>People say the dollar is a safe haven currency, but I don’t see it that way.</b>The Yen and the Swiss Franc are much better safe havens. From the 1970s through the 1990s, the dollar was pro-cyclical, i.e. strengthening with a stronger world economy. This changed around the year 2000. The reason in my view is that large parts of the developed world are in a liquidity trap. And in a liquidity trap, there is infinite demand for dollars, because the dollar demand curve is flat. So every time where we have an economic slump, it means the liquidity trap is deepening, hence the demand for dollars is going up. And every time the economy gets better, the liquidity trap is getting shallower, with demand for dollars shrinking.\n <b>So, if I take the view that the world economy in the second half of this year is starting a boom, then logically, we cannot have a stronger dollar. We have never had a booming world economy and a stronger dollar since 2000.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>When you look at world equity markets, which geographies and sectors currently offer the best opportunities?</p>\n<blockquote>\n I am very value conscious, so\n <b>I like European stocks, they have underperformed for a long time</b>. I would overweight Germany, France and Italy; their valuations are way more attractive than the US market. If we have a world economic boom, these markets will do very well. The US is difficult to underweight, because it’s so huge, but on the fringe I would suggest to overweight non-US stocks, i.e. Europe and Japan.\n <b>I think the Japanese market can have one last, big upleg before this bull market is over.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>An economic boom and a lower dollar should be bullish for emerging markets, right?</p>\n<blockquote>\n We must keep in mind that\n <b>today’s emerging markets are very different from 20 years ago.</b>Today, more than 40% of the MSCI EM index is made up by China. In China, the equity market is predominantly driven by big tech, with stocks like Alibaba and Tencent. So China has a similar issue like the US tech sector: In an environment of rising bond yields, these high-multiple stocks tend to underperform. Besides, China has begun to tighten policy, which is a negative for EM performance as a whole. I would shift more towards the commodity segment, meaning Latin America. They have been beaten down badly because of the Bolsonaro screwup in the pandemic crisis, but for every grief there is a price, and\n <b>I think Brazilian assets are cheap enough to absorb all the negatives.</b>I particularly like commodity markets like Chile. I also like Australia and Canada. These are places where value is better, and they are well positioned for rising commodity prices.\n</blockquote>\n<p>We see a world of inverted roles: After the financial crisis, China embarked on a huge monetary and fiscal stimulus. Today it’s the U.S., while China is tightening. What’s going on?</p>\n<blockquote>\n If you look at\n <b>the net increase in Chinese fiscal deficit in terms of fighting the pandemic, it was about 4.7% last year, as opposed to about 15% of GDP in the US.</b>Of course, China got the pandemic under control earlier, but that’s not all. The key thing is, their fiscal deficit spending is 100% infrastructure, whereas in the Western world we talk about 10 to 20% of GDP being dumped into the system through transfer payments. The fiscal multiplier in China is huge, while in the US it is practically zero. The second thing is this:\n <b>After 2008, China went on a construction spree, financed by an avalanche of credit creation. For ten years since then, the central government has been concerned about the economy getting overleveraged. This time, they are comparatively stingy and Beijing wants to slow down the credit creation process early.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>The stock market in China is not happy about that.</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>The stock market is very sensitive to changes in liquidity conditions.</b>If credit growth is slowing down, stocks perform poorly. So it’s not a great time to buy Chinese equities right now. But from a broader economic point of view, I don’t think we’ll see the kind of tightening shock in China like we saw in 2015. So even though it might not be a great time to buy stocks due to liquidity conditions, I think the Chinese economy will do reasonably well, which also means a good environment for commodity prices.\n</blockquote>\n<p>What makes you confident that policy makers in China won’t commit a mistake and tighten too much?</p>\n<blockquote>\n They have not created much credit excesses this time, so there is no reason for them to tighten aggressively.\n <b>Geopolitically, the leadership in China has reached the conclusion that America is trying to suffocate the Chinese economy. So they have to maintain growth momentum by letting foreign investment money coming in.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Has there been a change in thinking towards the US in Beijing since Joe Biden assumed the presidency?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>I think both sides are too far on the path of great power rivalry already.</b>America represents the incumbent power, and China is the rising power that is challenging the US. I personally believe that\n <b>we in the West don’t get the full picture of Sino-US confrontation. We only get the western side of the story,</b>we never get to see the Chinese perspective through our media.\n</blockquote>\n<p>What is the Chinese perspective?</p>\n<blockquote>\n <b>Within China, there is a strong feeling that the Americans have destroyed the bilateral relationship to cater to purely domestic political needs,</b>starting with Donald Trump. They feel that they are treated unfairly, in a confrontation that is unprovoked. Even when it comes to Hong Kong, we only know Beijing violated the concept of One Country Two Systems by imposing the new security law, but\n <b>how about the social upheavals and civil unrest in the two years leading up to the change of law</b>? No one said anything here. The US accused the Chinese of not playing by the rules, but the Chinese say they have played by the rules that were written by the US. They have joined the WTO and have slowly opened up their system. They signed the Paris Treaty. They have honoured all the international obligations, then Trump came and uprooted the very system that America had built. So the Chinese feel that the Americans suddenly want to change the rules again.\n <b>The consensus in Beijing now is that the US wants to derail China. Once you have a consensus like that, it’s difficult to change.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Will Biden continue on that path?</p>\n<blockquote>\n Biden has inherited Trump’s policies. That’s unfortunate, but there’s not much he can do. Trump’s China policy served his domestic agenda, hitting China in order to score points at home. As a result of that, public opinion of China spiralled down. Biden can’t turn that back. And again,\n <b>the consensus in China is that America wants to keep China down.

Numerous investors worldwide know him as the long-serving Chief Strategist of BCA Research.\nToday, Zhao is confident about equity markets. He sees the ingredients for a strong recovery in the global economy, and he believes fears of higher inflation are overblown. He sees the potential for the Federal Reserve's monetary policy to inflate a new speculative bubble.«This bubble is going to be a whole lot bigger than the tech bubble of the late nineties, and it will probably run a whole lot longer than we think»,says Zhao in an in-depth conversation with The Market NZZ.\nHis main concern is the growing conflict between the United States and China.Today, the risk of escalation over Taiwan is greater than at any time in the last 40 years, Zhao warns.\nMr. Zhao, in February and March, we have witnessed a sharp upward move in long term US bond yields, temporarily causing a sell-off in the Nasdaq. What do you make of this?\n\n Whenever bond yields rise, you should conceptually decompose this movement into two stages. One is reflective, meaning\n the bond market is trying to tell you something about the underlying economy.Rising bond yields are reflective of stronger economic growth. However, a market selloff could also move into a phase where bond yields become too high, constraining economic activity. In my judgement, what we are witnessing right now is purely reflective. The ISM manufacturing index is at its highest level since 1983, the world economy is in a strong recovery mode. Higher yields are consistent with the economy getting stronger. Under these circumstances, I would be more concerned if bond yields did not rise.\n\nAren’t rising inflation expectations also playing a part?\n\nI don’t see a clear breakout in inflation expectations.People forget that during the decade after the global financial crisis, inflation expectations have fallen apart. Markets became much more concerned about deflation. Inflation breakeven rates currently are between 2 and 2.2%, whereas the average range during the decade before 2009 was more like 2.5 to 3%. So inflation expectations are simply in the process of being normalized.\n\nDo you see room for a further rise in yields?\n\n Our model says ten year Treasury yields are pretty much at fair value today, at around 1.5%. But we know that if we have a cyclical move in financial markets, nothing stops at fair value. Markets always undershoot or overshoot. So I could see yields rise towards 2% or even a bit more.\n If they approach 2%, we would be active buyers of long term Treasuries.\n\nDon’t you see structural inflation building up?\n\n No, not at all. There is a widespread misunderstanding of this issue. Many people look at the fiscal position of the United States and see a budget deficit of almost 20% of GDP. The Fed balance sheet has expanded by $7 trillion since the beginning of the pandemic, M2 has exploded upward.\n How can this not be inflationary? Well, in my experience, something that is too obvious is usually wrong.\n\nHow so?\n\n What happened is this: For all of 2020, the US government unleashed $3.5 trillion in various rescue packages, as a result of which the federal government debt rose by $3.6 trillion. At the same time, the household sector’s disposable income increased by $3.5 trillion, and household savings shot up by $5.5 trillion. In other words, American households not only saved up all the transfer payments they received from the government, but they even saved $2 trillion more from their own income.\n These rescue programs did absolutely nothing to generate aggregate final demand or GDP growth. What we have seen was not a fiscal stimulus to boost aggregate demand, but a transfer payment. This was no different than a one-time tax cut.We know that people’s spending behaviour is determined by their outlook for sustainable income.\n If you give them a one-time tax cut, they will save it. This is what the Permanent Income Hypothesis says and this is what has happened.\n\nDon’t you think there is a huge amount of pent-up demand that will be released once the economy fully reopens?\n\n Yes, there will be a demand surge. Consumption spending has been repressed for over a year as a result of Covid-19 related restrictions. When the world economy reopens, this spending will be released. But this is not inflationary, as the boom will be temporary. People won’t party for the next twenty years. They will party for the next six months or so.\n For inflation to be a true threat, you need aggregate demand exceeding aggregate supply on a sustainable basis. I don’t see that happening any time soon.The government subsidies simply amount to a huge balance sheet swap: government debt as a share of GDP has gone up, while consumers’ net worth has gone up even more. This balance sheet swap has nothing to do with excessive aggregate demand.\n\nDoes that also mean you don’t see a structural bear market for bonds, where yields would drift higher over the coming years?\n\n Correct,\n I don’t see the drivers for structurally higher yields.That’s why I think that ten-year Treasury yields above 2% would represent a good buying opportunity.\n\nWhat would it take for you to change your mind?\n\nI will change my mind if the government took over and built lots of roads and bridges and have it all financed by the Fed.\n\nIsn’t that what the $2.3 trillion Biden infrastructure plan will do?\n\nThis proposed package is a step towards that kind of transition. But don’t forget, this is a rather small piece of cake, because it envisions spending roughly $2.2 trillion over eight years, so each year it would add only about 0.8 or 0.9% of GDP adjusted for inflation.On top of that, Biden is proposing higher taxes to fund it. So his infrastructure plan creates some growth on one hand, while taking it away with higher taxes on the other hand. Its net impact will only be around 0.4 or 0.5% of GDP per year. This won’t be a game changer in terms of inflation.\n\nWhat else would tell you that we are indeed moving through a profound transition towards higher inflation and higher interest rates?\n\n In my view,\n central banks have been completely wrong in their thinking about the Phillips Curve for the past 30 years,meaning that every time the labor market got too strong, they felt they had to raise rates, because they feared wage inflation would kick in. But we know now that there are a lot of things standing in the way between a strong labor market and actual wage inflation. In an environment of rising productivity, you can have higher wages and still lower inflation.\n Fundamentally speaking, free market capitalism is deflationary.\n\nWhy?\n\nNeither you nor I are paid more than our marginal output. In our society as a whole, labor is always paid at or below its marginal output. In a socialist economy, it’s the other way round, because workers are usually paid more than their marginal output. So unless we change our system into a much more socialist type, and unless we had a substantial decline in labor productivity, I don’t see a return of structural inflation.\n\nWhat is different today compared to the 1970s, when we had structural inflation in our Western economies?\n\n In the 1970s, we had powerful unions in the US which drove up labor cost but kept productivity low. This was the legacy of President Roosevelt’s New Deal which, in my view, was very socialist. In addition, you had a collapse in the Bretton Woods System which drove down the Dollar by 50%, leading to a spike in goods price inflation.\n Finally, the US was a manufacturing power in the 1970s and the oil crisis created enormous stagflation pressures. None of this is true today.\n\nThere is a tug of war going on between the Fed and financial markets: The Fed says they will stay dovish for a long time, while markets expect a lift-off in short term rates next year. Who is right?\n\nIf you think about last decade, Fed policy was always too tight: The projected interest rate path by the Fed, as seen by the so-called Dot Plots, was always higher than market expectations.Because of that, we had a number of financial tremors: The taper tantrum in 2013, the collapse in commodity prices in 2015, the collapse in stock markets in late 2018. We had almost ten years of undershooting inflation and periodic stock market chaos as a result of monetary policy being too tight. In the end, the Fed always caved in and moved towards the market.\n Now it’s the other way round: The Fed is more dovish than market expectations. The market has priced in four or five rate hikes through 2023, while the Fed suggests they won’t do anything before 2024.\n\nWhich side is right?\n\n If you only looked at the lessons of the last decade, you’d say the market is right. But\n the difference today is that the Fed has abandoned its old reaction function and wants to stay ultra-stimulativeuntil inflation is above 2% for a while. The Fed is now adamantly saying they are\n willing to be late this time,allowing the economy and inflation to run hotter than they would have in the old days. If that’s the case, then markets may be wrong because they still assume the old reaction function of the Fed. So we don’t know yet, but it’s possible that the Fed will stay dovish much longer than markets think.\n\nWhat would the consequences of this new Fed policy be?\n\n One conclusion is pretty obvious:\n The stock market has already gone crazy and will likely go even crazier.If you read the work of Charles Kindleberger, you know that asset bubbles are perennial, they grow back every ten years or so, and they are usually driven by easy monetary policy and lots of liquidity. So this new reaction function by the Fed, plus the support from fiscal policy, means that markets will go through a very bubbly period.\n\nHow big can this bubble get?\n\n If you look at history, all speculative bubbles got killed by tightening monetary policy.\n You never had a bubble burst while monetary policy was still easy.Asset bubbles pop when central banks tighten policy to a point of yield curve inversion. Today, we’re far away from that.\n That’s why I think this bubble could get a whole lot bigger.\n\nWould you say we’re only at the beginning of this process?\n\n I’d say we are in the early stages of a stock market bubble, especially in the United States.\n There are many signs of speculative behaviour,be it Bitcoin, Gamestop, and so on. But it’s not as pervasive yet as it was in the late 1990s. When the technology bubble burst in 2000, everybody was bullish. Today, many people, even large banks, are still bearish. When they throw in the towel, then the final phase will begin.\n This bubble is going to be a whole lot bigger than the 90s and it will probably run a whole lot longer than we think.\n\nYou don’t see the risk of the bond market assuming the job of tightening conditions by rising long term yields?\n\n Historically, rising yields hurt the economy and stock prices only when both the long and the short end of the curve were moving up. It’s usually not the case to see the long end of the curve move way up while short term rates remain pressed down, as they are today. There is a limit to the pain long term rates can create for the economy, because borrowers can always slide down the maturity curve to avoid having to pay higher interest rates.\n So if you put it all together, I think ten year yields can’t move much higher than their fair value, while short term rates remain at zero.\n\nWhat will happen then?\n\nThe most likely scenario I see today is that we’ll have an expanding equity bubble for the next two years, with multiples going way higher. Then comes the point where the Fed just can’t remain dovish anymore. They will raise rates. At that point, the end would be nigh. a bursting asset bubble would be inevitable, and this is always very deflationary. When that happens, we could see zero nominal yields in the U.S.\n\nLate last year, everyone was bearish on the dollar. Now the Greenback has surprised by strengthening since January. Why was that?\n\nDon’t forget that the dollar had dropped almost 11% last year.Getting into 2021, it was very oversold, jammed with shorts. So a natural rebound from this position was to be expected. Going forward, I see the prerequisites in place for a further weakening.\n In the last 20 years, every time the world economy slumped, the dollar strengthened, and every time the world economy got better, the dollar weakened. Right now, we see an improving world economy, hence the dollar should weaken.\n\nWhat’s the reason for that pattern?\n\nPeople say the dollar is a safe haven currency, but I don’t see it that way.The Yen and the Swiss Franc are much better safe havens. From the 1970s through the 1990s, the dollar was pro-cyclical, i.e. strengthening with a stronger world economy. This changed around the year 2000. The reason in my view is that large parts of the developed world are in a liquidity trap. And in a liquidity trap, there is infinite demand for dollars, because the dollar demand curve is flat. So every time where we have an economic slump, it means the liquidity trap is deepening, hence the demand for dollars is going up. And every time the economy gets better, the liquidity trap is getting shallower, with demand for dollars shrinking.\n So, if I take the view that the world economy in the second half of this year is starting a boom, then logically, we cannot have a stronger dollar. We have never had a booming world economy and a stronger dollar since 2000.\n\nWhen you look at world equity markets, which geographies and sectors currently offer the best opportunities?\n\n I am very value conscious, so\n I like European stocks, they have underperformed for a long time. I would overweight Germany, France and Italy; their valuations are way more attractive than the US market. If we have a world economic boom, these markets will do very well. The US is difficult to underweight, because it’s so huge, but on the fringe I would suggest to overweight non-US stocks, i.e. Europe and Japan.\n I think the Japanese market can have one last, big upleg before this bull market is over.\n\nAn economic boom and a lower dollar should be bullish for emerging markets, right?\n\n We must keep in mind that\n today’s emerging markets are very different from 20 years ago.Today, more than 40% of the MSCI EM index is made up by China. In China, the equity market is predominantly driven by big tech, with stocks like Alibaba and Tencent. So China has a similar issue like the US tech sector: In an environment of rising bond yields, these high-multiple stocks tend to underperform. Besides, China has begun to tighten policy, which is a negative for EM performance as a whole. I would shift more towards the commodity segment, meaning Latin America. They have been beaten down badly because of the Bolsonaro screwup in the pandemic crisis, but for every grief there is a price, and\n I think Brazilian assets are cheap enough to absorb all the negatives.I particularly like commodity markets like Chile. I also like Australia and Canada. These are places where value is better, and they are well positioned for rising commodity prices.\n\nWe see a world of inverted roles: After the financial crisis, China embarked on a huge monetary and fiscal stimulus. Today it’s the U.S., while China is tightening. What’s going on?\n\n If you look at\n the net increase in Chinese fiscal deficit in terms of fighting the pandemic, it was about 4.7% last year, as opposed to about 15% of GDP in the US.Of course, China got the pandemic under control earlier, but that’s not all. The key thing is, their fiscal deficit spending is 100% infrastructure, whereas in the Western world we talk about 10 to 20% of GDP being dumped into the system through transfer payments. The fiscal multiplier in China is huge, while in the US it is practically zero. The second thing is this:\n After 2008, China went on a construction spree, financed by an avalanche of credit creation. For ten years since then, the central government has been concerned about the economy getting overleveraged. This time, they are comparatively stingy and Beijing wants to slow down the credit creation process early.\n\nThe stock market in China is not happy about that.\n\nThe stock market is very sensitive to changes in liquidity conditions.If credit growth is slowing down, stocks perform poorly. So it’s not a great time to buy Chinese equities right now. But from a broader economic point of view, I don’t think we’ll see the kind of tightening shock in China like we saw in 2015. So even though it might not be a great time to buy stocks due to liquidity conditions, I think the Chinese economy will do reasonably well, which also means a good environment for commodity prices.\n\nWhat makes you confident that policy makers in China won’t commit a mistake and tighten too much?\n\n They have not created much credit excesses this time, so there is no reason for them to tighten aggressively.\n Geopolitically, the leadership in China has reached the conclusion that America is trying to suffocate the Chinese economy. So they have to maintain growth momentum by letting foreign investment money coming in.\n\nHas there been a change in thinking towards the US in Beijing since Joe Biden assumed the presidency?\n\nI think both sides are too far on the path of great power rivalry already.America represents the incumbent power, and China is the rising power that is challenging the US. I personally believe that\n we in the West don’t get the full picture of Sino-US confrontation. We only get the western side of the story,we never get to see the Chinese perspective through our media.\n\nWhat is the Chinese perspective?\n\nWithin China, there is a strong feeling that the Americans have destroyed the bilateral relationship to cater to purely domestic political needs,starting with Donald Trump. They feel that they are treated unfairly, in a confrontation that is unprovoked. Even when it comes to Hong Kong, we only know Beijing violated the concept of One Country Two Systems by imposing the new security law, but\n how about the social upheavals and civil unrest in the two years leading up to the change of law? No one said anything here. The US accused the Chinese of not playing by the rules, but the Chinese say they have played by the rules that were written by the US. They have joined the WTO and have slowly opened up their system. They signed the Paris Treaty. They have honoured all the international obligations, then Trump came and uprooted the very system that America had built. So the Chinese feel that the Americans suddenly want to change the rules again.\n The consensus in Beijing now is that the US wants to derail China. Once you have a consensus like that, it’s difficult to change.\n\nWill Biden continue on that path?\n\n Biden has inherited Trump’s policies. That’s unfortunate, but there’s not much he can do. Trump’s China policy served his domestic agenda, hitting China in order to score points at home. As a result of that, public opinion of China spiralled down. Biden can’t turn that back. And again,\n the consensus in China is that America wants to keep China down. We must prepare for a long confrontation.\n\nDo you see the risk of that confrontation turning hot?\n\nWashington is playing with the very nerve of the Chinese national interest, which is Taiwan.Since the beginning of bilateral diplomatic relations in the 1970s, one core commitment of the US was the One China Policy, avoiding official contact with the government in Taiwan. But Trump changed that, and Biden continues to follow the Trump script. This is very dangerous. Since 1979, there has been a tacit understanding on both sides that if the US does not encourage separation, the Chinese side will not resort to any military action. Now this tacit agreement has been thrown out of the window. Because Washington has seemingly encouraged official contacts with Taiwan, China feels the need to show their commitment to retake the island to maintain territorial integrity. That’s why we have incursions into Taiwanese air space practically every day. There is a reaction feedback going back and forth.\n I think there is a strong consensus among the Chinese leadership that within the next five years, if the US continues along this path, they might as well just take the risk of invading Taiwan. Then, all bets are off. The risk of some kind of confrontation is the highest in 40 years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":356,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
