Nonetheless, BABA stock continues to be an enigma among market players. On 14 March 2022, esteemed JPMorgan analyst Alex Yao threw in the towel, downgrading his rating on Alibaba and slashing his price target on the company&#39;s stock to $65 a share from $180. BABA stock subsequently fell to a low of $76.76 a day later.

It would be irresponsible as a writer to neglect to mention the contributors to the negative sentiment, as much as bulls and shareholders would like to bury these bad memories forever. Unfortunately, the nightmare ain’t over.</p><p>Just a few days before JPMorgan’s ultimate downgrade of the Chinese Internet space, there were three major pieces of bad news. First, on 8 March 2022, The Information released a report saying the initial public offering [IPO] of Ant Group, the financial technology arm of Alibaba Group, would be delayed indefinitely. Ant Group’s IPO was previously anticipated by bankers to be in the second half of this year or early 2023 and was a much-touted catalyst for BABA stock.</p><p>Second, on 10 March 2022, the Securities and Exchange Commission [SEC] named five companies from China that could be delisted for failing to abide by U.S. accounting regulations. It was the first time the SEC had warned companies that their shares were at risk of being delisted for violating the Holding Foreign Companies Accountability Act [HFCAA] which went into effect in late 2020.</p><p>While BABA and none of the Chinese Internet ADRs were included, their share prices were similarly dragged lower. The SEC had given the five companies until March 29 to submit evidence disputing the Commission&#39;s charges. The short allowance, less than three weeks, spooked investors. It was only a matter of time before the rest of the affected ADRs, including BABA, got themselves onto the warning list.</p><p>Third, on 11 March 2022, news that DiDi Global (DIDI) had to put off the listing of its shares in Hong Kong sparked a broad selloff in the Chinese Internet sector. Even stalwarts like Alibaba, Baidu (BIDU), and Tencent Holdings (OTCPK:TCEHY) (OTCPK:TCTZF) were not spared, despite Alibaba and Baidu already having secondary listings in Hong Kong and Tencent’s primary listing in the autonomous city.</p><p>It is fair to say that DIDI’s woes had partially contributed to BABA’s fall on the same day. The long-embattled DIDI stock plummeted over 40% that day, prompting speculations that SoftBank (OTCPK:SFTBY) (OTCPK:SFTBF), which owned about 20% of DIDI, could once again trim its Alibaba stake to fill its funding shortfall. SoftBank had sold around 20 million Alibaba Hong Kong shares in the fourth quarter of 2021, the latest in a series of stock sales of the Chinese e-commerce and cloud giant. Alibaba is also a substantial shareholder of the Chinese ride-hailing giant.</p><p>With the price decline in BABA lasting more than a year, I had thought the remaining shareholders were “diamond hands”-type, much more capable of resisting the onslaught of bearish developments. How wrong I was! BABA’s Relative Strength Index [RSI] fell to a record low on 15 March 2022, indicating an extremely oversold position.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/84d32840236e5427866b7444e2ed90ae\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"491\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Alibaba share price and relative strength index RSI (YChart)</span></p><p><b>Why Is Alibaba Doing A Stock Buyback?</b></p><p>Following this treacherous backdrop and the plunge in BABA stock, Alibaba stunned the market on 22 March 2022, expanding its share buyback program to $25 billion, up from $15 billion. With Alibaba having already bought back $9.2 billion of shares, the boost raised the remaining firepower from $5.8 billion to $15.8 billion. This represents 5.5% of Alibaba’s current market capitalization of $289 billion.</p><p>There may be some who question why Alibaba executives didn’t use up the $5.8 billion remaining in the original buyback program during the bear mauling to scoop up shares on the cheap before announcing the revitalized package. It does seem logical for them to do so but who can guarantee BABA stock wouldn’t fall further to a level that an eventual announcement of a $10 billion fresh injection of funds for share buyback wouldn’t be able to reverse?</p><p>A delay in the enhanced share buyback program would have risked a deeper deterioration in the share price, leading to forced selling by those unable to meet margin calls as well as further panic selling by retail investors and fund managers alike.

Nothing the company announced subsequently could then change their mind, like the numerous comments on Seeking Alpha I read along the lines of: “I have finally gotten rid of my BABA shares. Never again am I going to touch BABA or any Chinese stocks.”</p><p>If more and more shareholders become ‘burnt’ by BABA, even the additional $10 billion may not be sufficient to stem the tide. On March 15, the volume traded was around 75 million. Taking an estimated $85 as an average for the day, the transaction value would have been $6.4 billion. Assuming that Alibaba was left as the main buyer, the company could only sustain three days of such heavy selling.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/00be592a59dddb2e41182c3c63b4ec13\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"477\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Alibaba share price versus trading volume (YChart)</span></p><p>Hence, I reckon the sending of the message for the motivations for an expanded buyback program is more effective in bolstering investor confidence than the buyback itself.

On a net cash basis, Alibaba has $55.7 billion (note that a negative net financial debt means net cash). Furthermore, BABA’s free cash flow is also growing steadily (the long-term uptrend remains intact). Alibaba achieved a whopping $12.7 billion of free cash flow in the final quarter of 2021, the third-highest ever in its operating history, amid fears that its ‘compliance’ with Beijing’s Common Prosperity call would “squeeze the company dry.”</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b11819c84afae3ec7c1fb21be489fc50\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"494\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Alibaba free cash flow and net cash position (YChart)</span></p><p><b>What Is BABA Stock Forecast?</b></p><p>Seeking Alpha’s quant rating on BABA has been a Hold for over a year.

Citi analyst Alicia Yap, who lowered her price target on BABA last week to $177 from $200 but maintained the firm&#39;s buy rating, argued that the stock is near a &#34;historical trough,&#34; making shares &#34;attractive.&#34;</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/294734ca2636122990d3667bc7aee660\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"294\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>BABA stock analyst recommendations (Seeking Alpha Premium)</span></p><p>Despite the spate of target price cuts in the past months, the prevailing average price target at $171.23 provides an upside of 65%. Since price targets are typically issued on a 12-month basis, if BABA indeed hits the average price target, shareholders stand to enjoy over 60% of gains within a year. That’s a respectable alpha!</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ca9845bfc6e20b5a858b4f2c9aeb2fe5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"187\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>BABA stock average price target (Seeking Alpha Premium)</span></p><p><b>Is BABA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?</b></p><p>I consider BABA stock a Buy and offer four arguments for it, on top of all the benefits accruing from the expanded stock buyback program.</p><p>The Chinese discount could narrow substantially on better appreciation of Beijing’s intentions and greater patience</p><p>First, I think non-Chinese investors will come to appreciate Beijing isn’t out to kill the Chinese Internet giants and the Chinese discount could narrow substantially. In a recent interview with Bloomberg TV anchor Haslinda Amin, Katherine Tai, the 19th United States Trade Representative, said that (emphasis mine) “for the people who are criticizing our trade policy, it is either because they are not hearing us when we describe what our objectives are, which is to bring a new approach to trade that ensures that trade policy can be and is a force for good. She added, “And I think that some of the other critics are impatient.”</p><p>Similarly, perhaps the critics of Beijing’s regulatory crackdown and policies like “Common Prosperity” either aren’t ‘hearing’ the rationale or are impatient that the process has gone on for over a year and still showing no signs of ending. It’s no wonder that BABA stock shot up following a statement declaring Beijing&#39;s support (content in Chinese) of the Chinese economy and the capital markets following a meeting of the top finance policy body chaired by Chinese Vice Premier Liu He.</p><p>On the much-feared delisting risk, critics also chose to ignore the positive signals sent out by the Chinese securities regulator. Last year, the China Securities Regulatory Commission [CSRC] reiterated its implicit support for the VIE structure and reassured investors several times of their continued effort to reconcile the demands of the SEC with Beijing’s national security needs.</p><p>The cautious (or perhaps simply playing hard to get) SEC Chairman Gary Gensler recently toned down speculation of a potential imminent deal for Chinese companies listed in the U.S. to comply with the HFCAA. Gensler let out that conversations had been &#34;thoughtful, respectful [and] productive,&#34; but he did not know what the talks would lead to. The contrasting levels of optimism reminded me of my younger days when I was confident that my relationship with a then-girlfriend was going great but I realized belatedly that she had thought otherwise.</p><p>On April 2, the Chinese regulators finally confirmed plans to revise confidentiality rules to give U.S. auditors full access to the U.S.-listed Chinese firms’ audit reports. Bloomberg had reported a day earlier that the change could happen as soon as the middle of this year. Hopefully, that is not too long for the impatient shareholders.</p><p><b>BABA ain’t alone in the tech slowdown and geopolitical woes</b></p><p>Second, given the bloodletting in the global tech space, partly due to the slower growth as companies lapse the pandemic-fueled revenue boost, market players should come to appreciate Alibaba Group isn’t alone in disappointing shareholders. At the same time, investors are worried about the negative impact U.S.-China political tensions can cause the Alibaba Group.</p><p>However, non-Chinese companies like Sea Limited (SE) have also found themselves in trouble with foreign governments. For instance, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Ltd</a>.&#39;s Indian e-commerce operations had to deal with complaints from the country’s trade association. Sea Ltd.&#39;s popular game Free Fire was recently banned in India.</p><p>Although the decline in BABA stock has incurred the vitriol of shareholders, SE stock has fallen more and much faster than the former but it continues to receive favorable mentions.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/32419c8e74f16a97fc83c0ea8f8f7865\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"477\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Alibaba versus Sea Limited share price chart (YChart)</span></p><p>Meanwhile, Reuters reported that Europe&#39;s competition watchdog has proposed charging major online platforms a fee based on their global net income in order to ensure compliance with content enforcement rules. The European Commission is progressing with a plan to charge big platforms like Google (GOOG) (GOOGL), <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a> (FB), and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> (TWTR) up to 0.1% of their global annual net income. EC chief Margrethe Vestager guided the &#34;supervisory fee&#34; could raise €20 million-€30 million ($22 million-$32.8 million) annually.</p><p>Critics like to challenge, saying Western governments threaten but proposals have to go through a transparent legal process, implying that they may not be implemented in the end. However, the same Reuters news said (emphasis mine): “Vestager&#39;s proposal is likely to get the nod from member states and EU lawmakers, which are scheduled to meet on April 22 for the fourth round of negotiations and widely expected to result in a deal.”</p><p>Sometimes, I wonder if the critics realize they are indirectly complimenting Beijing’s ability to get policies enacted productively while denigrating the Western system. In any case, Europeans have proven their ability to get their act together in squeezing money out of American companies. Apple Inc. (AAPL) was levied with 10 fines totaling €50 million (~$55 million) for failing to satisfy the order of the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets [ACM] for its monopolistic practices regarding the payment mode used in dating apps.</p><p>If this happened in China, all sorts of negative labels would be piled on Beijing, and fear-mongering would be in overdrive, painting the nightmarish scenario of Apple being penalized for all categories of apps. The &#34;supervisory fee&#34; that the EC is pushing for could be misconstrued akin to how “Common Prosperity” has been maligned.</p><p>My point, though, is that investors could realize not only Chinese companies are subjected to political headwinds. Furthermore, the fines levied by the Chinese authorities are one-off and appropriately sized for the offense. For instance, when the Chinese regulators issued fines on several internet players, the penalty was only 500,000 yuan ($78,000) each, a tiny fraction of the annual revenues posted by the affected companies.</p><p><b>BABA is trading at very low valuation relative to historical levels</b></p><p>Third, I may be beating a dead horse here but it’s undeniable that BABA stock is trading at very depressed valuations currently. Alibaba’s P/E ratio on a forward basis has shrunk from a high of 31 times in the fourth quarter of 2020 to a mere 12 times presently. Alibaba’s PS ratio on a forward basis has compressed from a high of 7.8 times in the fourth quarter of 2020 to a mere 1.8 times presently.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1580c7281662c8e435ea308a0ea83fe8\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"469\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Alibaba Group Holding Ltd PS and PE ratio on a forward basis (YChart)</span></p><p>Sure, BABA stock can still go lower. Its valuations had indeed hit more incredulous levels just in mid-March. Nonetheless, the powerful rebound after hitting the trough could be an indication that bargain hunters deemed those multiples (PS ratio of 1.5 times and PE ratio of 9.3 times) to be the ultimate floor for BABA stock.</p><p><b>Alibaba continues to find new ways to monetize its large users across its ecosystem</b></p><p>Fourth, even as market players fear a revenue slowdown at its core e-commerce units, Alibaba Group continues to find new ways to monetize its large users across its ecosystem. Alibaba’s workplace collaboration platform DingTalk recently launched paid versions after securing a large user base during the pandemic. DingTalk’s President Ye Jun revealed that corporate users have to pay 9,800 yuan ($1,530) a year for a version of the platform including corporate digital asset storage services. Another version offering more customized services will start at 100,000 yuan annually, 10 times the previous package.</p><p>In summary, I rate BABA stock a Buy.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Is Alibaba Stock A Buy Or Sell After $25 Billion Buyback Announcement?</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\">\nIs Alibaba Stock A Buy Or Sell After $25 Billion Buyback Announcement?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-13 08:19 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4500909-alibaba-stock-buy-sell-after-buyback-announcement><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryThe “sum of all fears” moment evaporated, as though the triggers never surfaced.

Kevin Lee/Getty Images EntertainmentAlibaba, The Enigmatic And Contentious Stock Of The Chinese Internet SectorAlibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) is covered by a large contingent of Wall Street analyst teams and writers like I. Nonetheless, BABA stock continues to be an enigma among market players. On 14 March 2022, esteemed JPMorgan analyst Alex Yao threw in the towel, downgrading his rating on Alibaba and slashing his price target on the company's stock to $65 a share from $180. BABA stock subsequently fell to a low of $76.76 a day later. However, the next day, BABA staged a remarkable rebound.The “sum of all fears” moment evaporated, as though the triggers never surfaced. It would be irresponsible as a writer to neglect to mention the contributors to the negative sentiment, as much as bulls and shareholders would like to bury these bad memories forever. Unfortunately, the nightmare ain’t over.Just a few days before JPMorgan’s ultimate downgrade of the Chinese Internet space, there were three major pieces of bad news. First, on 8 March 2022, The Information released a report saying the initial public offering [IPO] of Ant Group, the financial technology arm of Alibaba Group, would be delayed indefinitely.

It was only a matter of time before the rest of the affected ADRs, including BABA, got themselves onto the warning list.Third, on 11 March 2022, news that DiDi Global (DIDI) had to put off the listing of its shares in Hong Kong sparked a broad selloff in the Chinese Internet sector. Even stalwarts like Alibaba, Baidu (BIDU), and Tencent Holdings (OTCPK:TCEHY) (OTCPK:TCTZF) were not spared, despite Alibaba and Baidu already having secondary listings in Hong Kong and Tencent’s primary listing in the autonomous city.It is fair to say that DIDI’s woes had partially contributed to BABA’s fall on the same day.

Citi analyst Alicia Yap, who lowered her price target on BABA last week to $177 from $200 but maintained the firm's buy rating, argued that the stock is near a \"historical trough,\" making shares \"attractive.\"BABA stock analyst recommendations (Seeking Alpha Premium)Despite the spate of target price cuts in the past months, the prevailing average price target at $171.23 provides an upside of 65%. Since price targets are typically issued on a 12-month basis, if BABA indeed hits the average price target, shareholders stand to enjoy over 60% of gains within a year. That’s a respectable alpha!BABA stock average price target (Seeking Alpha Premium)Is BABA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?I consider BABA stock a Buy and offer four arguments for it, on top of all the benefits accruing from the expanded stock buyback program.The Chinese discount could narrow substantially on better appreciation of Beijing’s intentions and greater patienceFirst, I think non-Chinese investors will come to appreciate Beijing isn’t out to kill the Chinese Internet giants and the Chinese discount could narrow substantially. In a recent interview with Bloomberg TV anchor Haslinda Amin, Katherine Tai, the 19th United States Trade Representative, said that (emphasis mine) “for the people who are criticizing our trade policy, it is either because they are not hearing us when we describe what our objectives are, which is to bring a new approach to trade that ensures that trade policy can be and is a force for good. She added, “And I think that some of the other critics are impatient.”Similarly, perhaps the critics of Beijing’s regulatory crackdown and policies like “Common Prosperity” either aren’t ‘hearing’ the rationale or are impatient that the process has gone on for over a year and still showing no signs of ending. It’s no wonder that BABA stock shot up following a statement declaring Beijing's support (content in Chinese) of the Chinese economy and the capital markets following a meeting of the top finance policy body chaired by Chinese Vice Premier Liu He.On the much-feared delisting risk, critics also chose to ignore the positive signals sent out by the Chinese securities regulator. Last year, the China Securities Regulatory Commission [CSRC] reiterated its implicit support for the VIE structure and reassured investors several times of their continued effort to reconcile the demands of the SEC with Beijing’s national security needs.The cautious (or perhaps simply playing hard to get) SEC Chairman Gary Gensler recently toned down speculation of a potential imminent deal for Chinese companies listed in the U.S. to comply with the HFCAA. Gensler let out that conversations had been \"thoughtful, respectful [and] productive,\" but he did not know what the talks would lead to. The contrasting levels of optimism reminded me of my younger days when I was confident that my relationship with a then-girlfriend was going great but I realized belatedly that she had thought otherwise.On April 2, the Chinese regulators finally confirmed plans to revise confidentiality rules to give U.S. auditors full access to the U.S.-listed Chinese firms’ audit reports. Bloomberg had reported a day earlier that the change could happen as soon as the middle of this year. Hopefully, that is not too long for the impatient shareholders.BABA ain’t alone in the tech slowdown and geopolitical woesSecond, given the bloodletting in the global tech space, partly due to the slower growth as companies lapse the pandemic-fueled revenue boost, market players should come to appreciate Alibaba Group isn’t alone in disappointing shareholders. At the same time, investors are worried about the negative impact U.S.-China political tensions can cause the Alibaba Group.However, non-Chinese companies like Sea Limited (SE) have also found themselves in trouble with foreign governments. For instance, Sea Ltd.'s Indian e-commerce operations had to deal with complaints from the country’s trade association. Sea Ltd.'s popular game Free Fire was recently banned in India.Although the decline in BABA stock has incurred the vitriol of shareholders, SE stock has fallen more and much faster than the former but it continues to receive favorable mentions.Alibaba versus Sea Limited share price chart (YChart)Meanwhile, Reuters reported that Europe's competition watchdog has proposed charging major online platforms a fee based on their global net income in order to ensure compliance with content enforcement rules. The European Commission is progressing with a plan to charge big platforms like Google (GOOG) (GOOGL), Meta Platforms (FB), and Twitter (TWTR) up to 0.1% of their global annual net income. EC chief Margrethe Vestager guided the \"supervisory fee\" could raise €20 million-€30 million ($22 million-$32.8 million) annually.Critics like to challenge, saying Western governments threaten but proposals have to go through a transparent legal process, implying that they may not be implemented in the end. However, the same Reuters news said (emphasis mine): “Vestager's proposal is likely to get the nod from member states and EU lawmakers, which are scheduled to meet on April 22 for the fourth round of negotiations and widely expected to result in a deal.”Sometimes, I wonder if the critics realize they are indirectly complimenting Beijing’s ability to get policies enacted productively while denigrating the Western system. In any case, Europeans have proven their ability to get their act together in squeezing money out of American companies. Apple Inc. (AAPL) was levied with 10 fines totaling €50 million (~$55 million) for failing to satisfy the order of the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets [ACM] for its monopolistic practices regarding the payment mode used in dating apps.If this happened in China, all sorts of negative labels would be piled on Beijing, and fear-mongering would be in overdrive, painting the nightmarish scenario of Apple being penalized for all categories of apps. The \"supervisory fee\" that the EC is pushing for could be misconstrued akin to how “Common Prosperity” has been maligned.My point, though, is that investors could realize not only Chinese companies are subjected to political headwinds. Furthermore, the fines levied by the Chinese authorities are one-off and appropriately sized for the offense. For instance, when the Chinese regulators issued fines on several internet players, the penalty was only 500,000 yuan ($78,000) each, a tiny fraction of the annual revenues posted by the affected companies.BABA is trading at very low valuation relative to historical levelsThird, I may be beating a dead horse here but it’s undeniable that BABA stock is trading at very depressed valuations currently. Alibaba’s P/E ratio on a forward basis has shrunk from a high of 31 times in the fourth quarter of 2020 to a mere 12 times presently. Alibaba’s PS ratio on a forward basis has compressed from a high of 7.8 times in the fourth quarter of 2020 to a mere 1.8 times presently.Alibaba Group Holding Ltd PS and PE ratio on a forward basis (YChart)Sure, BABA stock can still go lower. Its valuations had indeed hit more incredulous levels just in mid-March. Nonetheless, the powerful rebound after hitting the trough could be an indication that bargain hunters deemed those multiples (PS ratio of 1.5 times and PE ratio of 9.3 times) to be the ultimate floor for BABA stock.Alibaba continues to find new ways to monetize its large users across its ecosystemFourth, even as market players fear a revenue slowdown at its core e-commerce units, Alibaba Group continues to find new ways to monetize its large users across its ecosystem. Alibaba’s workplace collaboration platform DingTalk recently launched paid versions after securing a large user base during the pandemic. DingTalk’s President Ye Jun revealed that corporate users have to pay 9,800 yuan ($1,530) a year for a version of the platform including corporate digital asset storage services. Another version offering more customized services will start at 100,000 yuan annually, 10 times the previous package.In summary, I rate BABA stock a Buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":339,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9080080050,"gmtCreate":1649818349581,"gmtModify":1676534583478,"author":{"id":"3574484198588936","authorId":"3574484198588936","name":"Eaglewings","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532f4e45cb093f21d9a38905184a4bb9","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574484198588936","authorIdStr":"3574484198588936"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good write up&nbsp;","listText":"Good write up&nbsp;","text":"Good write up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9080080050","repostId":"2227664437","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2227664437","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1649817058,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2227664437?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-13 10:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"NIO: Don't Buy Into The Fear, NIO Is An EV Pioneer","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2227664437","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Thesis SummaryNIO Inc (NYSE:NIO) has seen its share price drop by near 15% in the last five days.

NIO has a total of 2,768 patents in China, 204 in Europe and 193 more in the United States.</p><p>NIO is not only an EV manufacturer, it is a company with a very large infrastructure and extensive intellectual capital.

Is NIO’s battery swap worth it? The consumer will decide that. However, what is most concerning to me is that battery technology is still in its early stages. A lot may change in the next few years, including sizes, materials needed and charging times. Improvements in battery technology could render the advantages of BaaS over regular charging obsolete.</p><h2>Takeaway</h2><p>NIO’s shares have slid significantly in the last week, and this doesn&#39;t reflect the reality of what is happening. While supply issues are a challenge, NIO’s expansion in Europe and its growth prospects beyond the sale of EVs should be more than enough to keep investors interested. NIO is a leader in battery technology and is building out an incredibly valuable infrastructure. It’s just a matter of time before the market realizes this.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>NIO: Don't Buy Into The Fear, NIO Is An EV Pioneer</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\">\nNIO: Don't Buy Into The Fear, NIO Is An EV Pioneer\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-13 10:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4501051-nio-dont-buy-into-the-fear-nio-is-an-ev-pioneer><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Thesis SummaryNIO Inc (NYSE:NIO) has seen its share price drop by near 15% in the last five days.

But, its vehicle gross margin remained robust, as it improved to 20.9%. It also improved against FQ3&#39;s 18% and last year&#39;s 17.2%. Notably, NIO&#39;s robust vehicle margins came amid the current uncertainties in its supply chain, as NIO CEO William Li highlighted (edited): &#34;Although the user demand and order momentum remains strong, the production and delivery have been affected by COVID and the volatility of the supply chain.&#34;</p><p>As a result, NIO telegraphed only 25.5K (mid-point) in deliveries for CQ1&#39;22, ending in March.

The first U.S. company to do so, this milestone sent AAPL stock price predictions soaring. Of course, the market cap has since dipped, but Apple has been on a winning streak lately. Currently, shares have risen almost 4% for the week and 8% for the month. The stock is dipping today due to antitrust speculation, but it should rebound. In fact, some believe shares can retake the $3 trillion mark.Many analysts remain highly bullish on AAPL stock. According to TipRanks, which surveyed 28 analysts, the average price target for AAPL is $193.36. Further, analysts rate it as an overall Strong Buy.They have reason to maintain this mindset. Recently, InvestorPlace contributor Mark Hake speculated that shares could rise by 47% over the next two years, if the company implements its upgrade plan. Apple has also already been rising on momentum from its lower-cost iPhone news.Still, even with these catalysts, can AAPL stock really return to a $3 trillion market cap? Let’s take a closer look at what experts are saying.Will AAPL Stock Reach $3 Trillion?Wedbush tech sector expert Dan Ives remains ever bullish on AAPL stock. As Ives sees it, “Apple is a bedrock of strength and overall iPhone and services demand is helping the stock to power back towards the $3 trillion area code.” Ives maintains a $200 price target and a “buy” rating on AAPL stock.JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee is even more bullish. The analyst recently reiterated a $210 price target for AAPL stock. Chatterjee recently noted that “iPhone SE 3 availability tracking suggested that the lead times have moderated in almost all geographies, except China.”Finally, Morgan Stanley analyst Katy HubertysharesChatterjee’s $210 AAPL stock price target. Huberty issued an “overweight” rating on the stock.Overall, both Chatterjee and Huberty’s high $210 price targets are promising. They indicate both analysts see the stock not just reaching the $3 trillion mark, but surpassing it in the near future.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":446,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9019372121,"gmtCreate":1648546111605,"gmtModify":1676534352347,"author":{"id":"3574484198588936","authorId":"3574484198588936","name":"Eaglewings","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532f4e45cb093f21d9a38905184a4bb9","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574484198588936","authorIdStr":"3574484198588936"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It will soar in due time.... good user base and market coverage in Asia&nbsp;","listText":"It will soar in due time.... good user base and market coverage in Asia&nbsp;","text":"It will soar in due time.... good user base and market coverage in Asia","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9019372121","repostId":"1118625922","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":487,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9037300939,"gmtCreate":1648017213247,"gmtModify":1676534293554,"author":{"id":"3574484198588936","authorId":"3574484198588936","name":"Eaglewings","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532f4e45cb093f21d9a38905184a4bb9","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574484198588936","authorIdStr":"3574484198588936"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Totally agreed","listText":"Totally agreed","text":"Totally agreed","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9037300939","repostId":"1181420530","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1181420530","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1648016676,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1181420530?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-23 14:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir May Be Fully Priced but the Future’s Bright","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1181420530","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"PLTR stock isn't that far from breaking even","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Palantir</b>(NYSE:<b>PLTR</b>) stock represents an analytics-focused, growth stock in a time when that’s not ideal.

(PLTR) is an innovative company, which has been touted by growth investors like Cathie Woods for its great technology. However, I see in Palantir something closer to a Buffett style stock. Palantir possesses many of the characteristics that the oracle of Omaha looks for in his investments. At today&#39;s price, Palantir is at worst fairly valued, which gives ample margin of safety.</p><p><b>Palantir has a Moat</b></p><p>One very compelling reason to own Palantir is the fact that the business is well insulated from competition. I find this to be the case for three reasons.</p><p>Firstly, the company&#39;s technology is way ahead of its peers. Foundry and Gotham&#39;s data analytics capabilities are best-in-class, and they get better the more they are used and the more data is collected. This is what has allowed Palantir to gain such important government contracts.</p><p>Secondly, the nature of how Palantir does business makes the relationship with its customers sticky. Palantir doesn&#39;t simply deploy a one size fits all software solution. The company has engineers working side by side with its clients to address each project and use case. As I&#39;ve talked about in previous articles, Palantir is similar in this way to a consulting company. This has its disadvantages, sure, but it also creates long-lasting relationships and sticky revenues.</p><p>Lastly, Palantir&#39;s main clients are government agencies, which also makes for a steady stream of revenues, and the more they use Palantir, the more dependent they are on it.</p><p>Proof of these last two points can be found in the growth in value in government contracts, and net dollar retention.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c43cafdb656d7001edc702a67570b742\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"675\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Government momentum (Investor Presentation) Source:Investor Presentation</span></p><p><b>Balance Sheet and Cash Flows</b></p><p>People often complain about Palantir&#39;s high stock-based compensation, but this has allowed Palantir to have a really strong balance sheet even without turning a profit. Palantir has over $2.5 billion in cash and only $260 million in debt. Furthermore, it has a current and quick ratio of over 4. Palantir has plenty of cash and is operating close to break-even. In an environment where rates are rising, a company without a big reliance on debt becomes more attractive.</p><p>Most importantly though, Palantir has seen strong cash flow growth in 2021.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6b30587f18390a259d40df45c463ca10\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"603\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Cash flow/growth comparison (Investor Presentation) Source:Investor Presentation</span></p><p>With revenue growth of 41%, and a cash flow margin of 28%, Palantir looks like a compelling investment when compared to peers.

Operating margins are positive and growing, and it is easy to forecast profitability in Palantir&#39;s future.</p><p><b>Forecast and Valuation</b></p><p>Now I am going to walk through a valuation for Palantir based on a 10-year forecast, which is based on yearly figures from 2018 to 2021. We will use the forecast to determine earnings per share in 10 years, and based on growth and balance sheet solidity, we will estimate a price to earnings ratio to complete a forecasted price. The price will be discounted to obtain our target price for the present.</p><p>We use a discount rate based on the likelihood of the forecast. This depends on the smoothness of the trends we use to make the forecast, and how much growth is needed to achieve it. If the forecast is based on irregular trends that make the future harder to predict and it implies a lot of growth, making it harder to achieve, we will require a better return and therefore use a higher discount rate.</p><p>Palantir&#39;s revenue has evolved very smoothly over the four years in question. The revenue growth has followed a polynomial trend, meaning the growth in absolute terms is higher each year, but the growth rate falls as the revenue grows. This is the most common pattern for relatively young high-growth companies.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6915c630b9ebd4fda2714f72ac14013c\" tg-width=\"975\" tg-height=\"586\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Revenue (Author&#39;s work) Source: Author&#39;s work.

These are divided into cost of revenues, SG&amp;A expense and R&amp;D expense. The first, cost of revenues, is the most optimistic part of this forecast. This is because the most fitting trend for how much this cost is relative to revenue is logarithmic. This means that the relative cost should fall as revenue grows. You can see this in the chart below:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1126693797c0a9f6473ba8866528d6d6\" tg-width=\"975\" tg-height=\"586\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Cost of Revenue (Author&#39;s work) Source: Author&#39;s work. Items in $millions.</span></p><p>A similar thing happens when you look at SG&amp;A expenses, although in this case, the trend is closer to a linear one:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7253107435bebba1df855203b3444d02\" tg-width=\"975\" tg-height=\"586\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>SG&amp;A (Author&#39;s work) Source: Author&#39;s work.

Items in $millions.</span></p><p>As you can see, while the revenue is smooth, the trends related to costs are weaker. This means the earnings forecast loses some degree of confidence and this will affect the discount rate we apply to the valuation. You can see here the complete forecast for the operating income figures in 1, 5 and 10 years.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f22c3370be3d3857f0546c2e79c29d02\" tg-width=\"717\" tg-height=\"187\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Forecast (Author&#39;s work) Source: Author&#39;s work. Items in $millions.</span></p><p>The next point is the balance sheet. Without going into every single detail, I want to illustrate how we forecast the net invested capital will behave about sales in the future. Net invested capital is the sum of all assets that are not cash or financial investments, minus all liabilities which are not debt.</p><p>So far, this item has evolved in an almost linear relation with revenue. This is what we are going to assume for the next few years. You can see this relation in the chart below.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d89c52eb0c7ecc90a4ef2890025f626a\" tg-width=\"975\" tg-height=\"587\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>NIC (Author&#39;s work) Source: Author&#39;s work. Items in $millions.</span></p><p>To complete the summarized balance sheet, we are assuming that there will continue to be no dividend and earnings will be accumulated into equity. Soon, we assume the company will also continue to increase its number of shares while this is necessary to maintain a similar relation between equity and sales volume. Here is our forecast for the basic balance sheet items:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8bcebbf669e0a945a21dbebe4104f356\" tg-width=\"717\" tg-height=\"162\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Forecast (Author&#39;s work) Source: Author&#39;s work. Items in $millions or millions of shares.</span></p><p>You can see that we are predicting that as it has done now, Palantir will require relatively little investment, and will hold an extremely secure balance sheet, with insignificant debt and plenty of cash and financial investments.</p><p>Finally, we are going into the actual valuation. Although our forecasting method has a little more to it, I have explained the most important points for this particular company. Now it is time to go into the actual valuation. With an EPS figure of $2.24 in 2031, a PE ratio of 27, and a discount rate of 15%, we value PLTR shares at $14.77 today.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/082b2cffab949c6718c68c4e85db4204\" tg-width=\"514\" tg-height=\"242\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Valuation (Author&#39;s work) Source: Author&#39;s work</span></p><p>For estimating the PE ratio, we take into account that debt will be negative and in a significant amount. The sales growth at that point, according to our forecast, should be around 14% at that point. These two elements will drive the PE ratio higher than the average.</p><p>The discount rate is affected by the amount of growth we are assuming for the next 10 years, with a 25% CAGR over the whole period, and also by the fact that some of the trends we used to make the forecast were weaker than one would like. Overall, we are applying a 15% discount which is higher than average market returns.</p><p><b>Conclusion</b></p><p>All in all, Palantir seems to be trading somewhat below fair value. This provides investors with a fair margin of safety. The scenario laid out below is conservative, and Palantir could surprise investors with more explosive growth. But even if it doesn&#39;t, at this price Palantir is a value stock that even Warren Buffet could be interested in.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Palantir: Cathie Wood Sells, Maybe Buffett Will Buy</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\">\nPalantir: Cathie Wood Sells, Maybe Buffett Will Buy\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-04 10:53 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4492586-palantir-cathie-wood-sells-maybe-buffett-will-buy><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryPalantir’s stock has fallen to fair value territory.Palantir is a Buffett worthy stock with a moat and growing cash flow.Our conservative forecast yields a target price $14,77.Thesis ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4492586-palantir-cathie-wood-sells-maybe-buffett-will-buy\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PLTR":"Palantir Technologies Inc."},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4492586-palantir-cathie-wood-sells-maybe-buffett-will-buy","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1179022083","content_text":"SummaryPalantir’s stock has fallen to fair value territory.Palantir is a Buffett worthy stock with a moat and growing cash flow.Our conservative forecast yields a target price $14,77.Thesis SummaryPalantir Inc. (PLTR) is an innovative company, which has been touted by growth investors like Cathie Woods for its great technology. However, I see in Palantir something closer to a Buffett style stock. Palantir possesses many of the characteristics that the oracle of Omaha looks for in his investments. At today's price, Palantir is at worst fairly valued, which gives ample margin of safety.Palantir has a MoatOne very compelling reason to own Palantir is the fact that the business is well insulated from competition. I find this to be the case for three reasons.Firstly, the company's technology is way ahead of its peers. Foundry and Gotham's data analytics capabilities are best-in-class, and they get better the more they are used and the more data is collected. This is what has allowed Palantir to gain such important government contracts.Secondly, the nature of how Palantir does business makes the relationship with its customers sticky. Palantir doesn't simply deploy a one size fits all software solution. The company has engineers working side by side with its clients to address each project and use case. As I've talked about in previous articles, Palantir is similar in this way to a consulting company. This has its disadvantages, sure, but it also creates long-lasting relationships and sticky revenues.Lastly, Palantir's main clients are government agencies, which also makes for a steady stream of revenues, and the more they use Palantir, the more dependent they are on it.Proof of these last two points can be found in the growth in value in government contracts, and net dollar retention.Government momentum (Investor Presentation) Source:Investor PresentationBalance Sheet and Cash FlowsPeople often complain about Palantir's high stock-based compensation, but this has allowed Palantir to have a really strong balance sheet even without turning a profit. Palantir has over $2.5 billion in cash and only $260 million in debt. Furthermore, it has a current and quick ratio of over 4. Palantir has plenty of cash and is operating close to break-even. In an environment where rates are rising, a company without a big reliance on debt becomes more attractive.Most importantly though, Palantir has seen strong cash flow growth in 2021.Cash flow/growth comparison (Investor Presentation) Source:Investor PresentationWith revenue growth of 41%, and a cash flow margin of 28%, Palantir looks like a compelling investment when compared to peers. Palantir's profitability is hurt by SBC, but this is a cost that can be wound down. Operating margins are positive and growing, and it is easy to forecast profitability in Palantir's future.Forecast and ValuationNow I am going to walk through a valuation for Palantir based on a 10-year forecast, which is based on yearly figures from 2018 to 2021. We will use the forecast to determine earnings per share in 10 years, and based on growth and balance sheet solidity, we will estimate a price to earnings ratio to complete a forecasted price.

The analyst said: &#34;In our eyes, this growth appears to be in the early-to-mid stages of the growth curve, and with no signs of supply alleviating in the near term, it provides a nice backdrop for the gaming segment.

The legacy automotive and electric vehicle (EV) industries are under pressure as inflation and supply chain constraints disrupt operations and threaten delays in long-term plans.</p><p>Let&#39;s look at where Tesla and Ford could be headed in 2022 to determine which stock is the better buy now.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2264e6d84a4946f07862d86d2821786b\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"439\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image source: Tesla.</span></p><h2>Moving forward after a breakout year</h2><p><b>Howard Smith (Tesla):</b> Every prospective stock investment should be part of a larger strategy. Otherwise, one could just buy mutual funds or exchange-traded funds that track the overall market. When considering whether to invest in Tesla or Ford, the strategy would presumably be based on gaining exposure to the EV sector. Deciding whether to buy the established leader in the burgeoning sector or an established manufacturer making the transition to EVs involves trade-offs.</p><p>Tesla is richly valued with a market cap of about $925 billion, and it just completed a breakout year with $5.5 billion in net income and increased gross margin to nearly 30% in its recently reported fourth quarter. That&#39;s approximately twice the gross profit margin that Ford has achieved over the last several years.</p><p>The EV market still being in its early stages can be viewed as a positive and a negative for Tesla. Competition will be ramping up both from barely established start-ups as well as legacy automakers like Ford. But Tesla is also still squarely in growth mode with two new factories in Texas and Germany, respectively, expected to begin production soon. Tesla invested $6.5 billion for those projects and other capital expenditures in 2021, and still generated another $5 billion in free cash flow (FCF) beyond that.</p><p>Tesla is proving that it can navigate a difficult manufacturing environment well. The company delivered about 940,000 vehicles last year and expects to experience 50% average annual growth in vehicle deliveries over the next several years.</p><p>Meanwhile, Ford and other automakers are struggling to navigate supply chain constraints. Most recently, Ford said it will be cutting production on several popular (and profitable) vehicles due to parts shortages. These include the F-150 and Ranger pickup trucks, its Transit cargo vans, and the new Mustang Mach-E electric crossover, according to a CNBC report.</p><p>Tesla has proved it can manufacture at scale, continue to grow, and be hugely profitable along the way. Even with its high valuation, for exposure to the EV sector, Tesla still looks like it could be a better long-term investment than a legacy automaker like Ford.</p><h2>Ford is at the top of its game</h2><p><b>Daniel Foelber (Ford): </b>During its fourth-quarter 2021 earnings call, Ford said that it now expects semiconductor challenges to persist throughout 2022, damaging its ability to ramp up production fast enough to satisfy high demand. Throughout 2021, Tesla showed impressive resolve in navigating the crisis. But on its fourth-quarter 2021 conference call, Tesla said that it also expects the chip challenge to carry on throughout the year, and that supply chain issues are affecting all of its factories.</p><p>This is a pivotal year for Ford as it plans to roll out the F-150 Lightning electric pickup in a few months and make progress toward increasing total EV production capacity to 600,000 units per year by 2023. There&#39;s no doubt that the supply chain and semiconductor challenge throw a layer of unpredictability into these plans. But Ford appears to be doing an impressive job with what it can control.</p><p>Tesla&#39;s high margins and record profitability and FCF were mentioned above. Tesla deserves immense credit for these accomplishments, and there are strong reasons the stock deserves a place in a diversified EV portfolio.</p><p>However, Ford is also ramping spending as it takes aim at making EVs 40% of sales by 2030. And yet, it is guiding for 15% to 25% higher earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) in 2022 and adjusted FCF of $5.5 billion to $6.5 billion, the midpoint of which is 31% higher than 2021&#39;s adjusted FCF.</p><p>Ford quantified the effects that rising inflation is having on its business, forecasting commodity-price headwinds of $1.5 billion to $2 billion in 2022. And yet, it expects its North American EBIT margin to increase to 10% in 2022, a goal it originally set for 2023.</p><p>The short-term risk is that Ford&#39;s plans could be derailed by factors outside of its control. And if that happens, the company could find itself overpromising and underdelivering, and delaying medium-term goals as we saw with its fourth-quarter 2021 figures.</p><p>However, a long-term perspective could flip that narrative completely by looking at Ford&#39;s business and seeing how strong it is performing during a challenging time as a foundation for even stronger future performance during easier market conditions. Ford&#39;s aggressive spending in product categories where it has an edge, specifically the electric pickup truck market, could end up being the company&#39;s best strategic shift since it began pivoting away from making sedans in favor of crossovers, SUVs, and pickups. Add it all up, and Ford looks like a long-term winner that can outlast the present challenges better than its competition.</p><h2>Two great buys for the long haul</h2><p>Tesla and Ford stock have both sold off and could keep selling off in the short term due to a mix of industry headwinds and broader market volatility. Investors interested in the EV space should approach a prospective investment with a long-term time horizon.

The legacy automotive and electric vehicle (EV) industries are under pressure as inflation and supply chain constraints disrupt operations and threaten delays in long-term plans.Let's look at where Tesla and Ford could be headed in 2022 to determine which stock is the better buy now.Image source: Tesla.Moving forward after a breakout yearHoward Smith (Tesla): Every prospective stock investment should be part of a larger strategy. Otherwise, one could just buy mutual funds or exchange-traded funds that track the overall market. When considering whether to invest in Tesla or Ford, the strategy would presumably be based on gaining exposure to the EV sector. Deciding whether to buy the established leader in the burgeoning sector or an established manufacturer making the transition to EVs involves trade-offs.Tesla is richly valued with a market cap of about $925 billion, and it just completed a breakout year with $5.5 billion in net income and increased gross margin to nearly 30% in its recently reported fourth quarter. That's approximately twice the gross profit margin that Ford has achieved over the last several years.The EV market still being in its early stages can be viewed as a positive and a negative for Tesla. Competition will be ramping up both from barely established start-ups as well as legacy automakers like Ford. But Tesla is also still squarely in growth mode with two new factories in Texas and Germany, respectively, expected to begin production soon. Tesla invested $6.5 billion for those projects and other capital expenditures in 2021, and still generated another $5 billion in free cash flow (FCF) beyond that.Tesla is proving that it can navigate a difficult manufacturing environment well. The company delivered about 940,000 vehicles last year and expects to experience 50% average annual growth in vehicle deliveries over the next several years.Meanwhile, Ford and other automakers are struggling to navigate supply chain constraints. Most recently, Ford said it will be cutting production on several popular (and profitable) vehicles due to parts shortages. These include the F-150 and Ranger pickup trucks, its Transit cargo vans, and the new Mustang Mach-E electric crossover, according to a CNBC report.Tesla has proved it can manufacture at scale, continue to grow, and be hugely profitable along the way. Even with its high valuation, for exposure to the EV sector, Tesla still looks like it could be a better long-term investment than a legacy automaker like Ford.Ford is at the top of its gameDaniel Foelber (Ford): During its fourth-quarter 2021 earnings call, Ford said that it now expects semiconductor challenges to persist throughout 2022, damaging its ability to ramp up production fast enough to satisfy high demand. Throughout 2021, Tesla showed impressive resolve in navigating the crisis. But on its fourth-quarter 2021 conference call, Tesla said that it also expects the chip challenge to carry on throughout the year, and that supply chain issues are affecting all of its factories.This is a pivotal year for Ford as it plans to roll out the F-150 Lightning electric pickup in a few months and make progress toward increasing total EV production capacity to 600,000 units per year by 2023. There's no doubt that the supply chain and semiconductor challenge throw a layer of unpredictability into these plans. But Ford appears to be doing an impressive job with what it can control.Tesla's high margins and record profitability and FCF were mentioned above. Tesla deserves immense credit for these accomplishments, and there are strong reasons the stock deserves a place in a diversified EV portfolio.However, Ford is also ramping spending as it takes aim at making EVs 40% of sales by 2030. And yet, it is guiding for 15% to 25% higher earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) in 2022 and adjusted FCF of $5.5 billion to $6.5 billion, the midpoint of which is 31% higher than 2021's adjusted FCF.Ford quantified the effects that rising inflation is having on its business, forecasting commodity-price headwinds of $1.5 billion to $2 billion in 2022. And yet, it expects its North American EBIT margin to increase to 10% in 2022, a goal it originally set for 2023.The short-term risk is that Ford's plans could be derailed by factors outside of its control. And if that happens, the company could find itself overpromising and underdelivering, and delaying medium-term goals as we saw with its fourth-quarter 2021 figures.However, a long-term perspective could flip that narrative completely by looking at Ford's business and seeing how strong it is performing during a challenging time as a foundation for even stronger future performance during easier market conditions. Ford's aggressive spending in product categories where it has an edge, specifically the electric pickup truck market, could end up being the company's best strategic shift since it began pivoting away from making sedans in favor of crossovers, SUVs, and pickups. Add it all up, and Ford looks like a long-term winner that can outlast the present challenges better than its competition.Two great buys for the long haulTesla and Ford stock have both sold off and could keep selling off in the short term due to a mix of industry headwinds and broader market volatility. Investors interested in the EV space should approach a prospective investment with a long-term time horizon. Tesla has come far, but is still a long way from maturing into the company it hopes to become.Similarly, Ford is in the early innings of its EV transition. The investment thesis for both companies will take time to play out. For that reason, it could be a good idea to simply dollar-cost average into stocks you like over time and keep a basket of electric car stocks in your portfolio to ensure that any single company's failures don't wreak havoc on your financial health.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":447,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9096504391,"gmtCreate":1644415459179,"gmtModify":1676533922963,"author":{"id":"3574484198588936","authorId":"3574484198588936","name":"Eaglewings","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532f4e45cb093f21d9a38905184a4bb9","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574484198588936","authorIdStr":"3574484198588936"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Xpeng will soar","listText":"Xpeng will soar","text":"Xpeng will soar","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9096504391","repostId":"1110834491","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1110834491","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1644411617,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1110834491?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-09 21:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Pre-Bell｜Nasdaq Futures Rallied 1.26%; Xpeng Leaped 6.8%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1110834491","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stock index futures rose on Wednesday, with high-growth stocks gaining as a recent rally in Tre","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>U.S. stock index futures rose on Wednesday, with high-growth stocks gaining as a recent rally in Treasury yields paused, while investors took comfort from upbeat earnings reports and signs of easing tensions in Ukraine.</p><p><b>Market Snapshot</b></p><p>At 7:52 a.m. ET, Dow E-minis were up 209 points, or 0.59%, S&amp;P 500 E-minis were up 38 points, or 0.84% and Nasdaq 100 E-minis were up 185.25 points, or 1.26%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b795fc25de6878a5e8d74c822666ca2c\" tg-width=\"384\" tg-height=\"160\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p><b>Pre-Market Movers</b></p><p>Peloton (PTON) – Peloton added 1% in premarket trading after surging more than 20% in each of the past two sessions.

Cannabis sales declined but were offset by growth in its drinks and vapes categories.Reynolds Consumer Products (REYN) – Reynolds shares fell 1.8% in premarket trading after the consumer products company reported a mixed quarter: beating bottom-line estimates but reporting revenue that fell short of Wall Street forecasts. Reynolds also forecast weaker-than-expected revenue for the current quarter.Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) – Chipotle reported an adjusted quarterly profit of $5.58 per share, beating the $5.25 consensus estimate, with revenue in line with analyst forecasts.

Nikola said its supply chain department is “intact” and it continues to hire. The stock added 1.4% in premarket trading.Xpeng (XPEV) – Xpeng leaped 6.8% in the premarket after the electric vehicle maker’s Hong Kong shares were included in a trading link to mainland China.

Enphase earned an adjusted 73 cents per share for the quarter, beating the 58-cent consensus estimate.XPO Logistics (XPO) – The logistics company’s shares jumped 3.4% in the premarket after its quarterly results exceeded analyst forecasts.

Scemama says these tailwinds suggest there could be significant upside to ASML's long-term 2025 financial targets that the company announced back in September.Bank of America has a Buy rating and $956 price target for ASML stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":320,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9091107433,"gmtCreate":1643793652946,"gmtModify":1676533857013,"author":{"id":"3574484198588936","authorId":"3574484198588936","name":"Eaglewings","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532f4e45cb093f21d9a38905184a4bb9","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574484198588936","authorIdStr":"3574484198588936"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It will soar....

FINANCE. NOTE: AMAZON DOES NOT PROVIDE EARNINGS GUIDANCE.</span></p><p>While Amazon doesn&#39;t provide guidance for earnings, it does so for operating income. Management expects fourth-quarter operating income to range from $0 to $3 billion, compared with $6.9 billion in the year-ago period. This guidance range represents operating income declining by about 100% to 57% year over year.</p><p>The world&#39;s e-commerce leader faced tough year-over-year comparables in the fourth quarter. In the year-ago period, revenue surged 44% and earnings per share soared 118% year over year. The fourth quarter of 2020 was particularly strong for two main reasons. First, the pandemic was raging and vaccines had only begun to roll out at the very tail end of the quarter/year. Second, Amazon held its annual Prime Day event in the fourth quarter of 2020 (October), whereas in 2021, this event took place in the second quarter (June).</p><p>In last quarter&#39;s earnings release, Jassy provided another reason -- increased costs -- that the company&#39;s bottom-line results are expected to decline significantly from the year-ago period:</p><p>In the fourth quarter, we expect to incur several billion dollars of additional costs in our consumer business as we manage through labor supply shortages, increased wage costs, global supply chain issues, and increased freight and shipping costs -- all while doing whatever it takes to minimize the impact on customers and selling partners this holiday season. It&#39;ll be expensive for us in the short term, but it&#39;s the right prioritization for our customers and partners.</p><p>For context, in the third quarter, Amazon&#39;s revenue increased 15% year over year to $110.8 billion, missing the $111.6 billion the Street had expected, but coming in close to the high end of its guidance range of $106 billion to $112 billion. By segment, sales in North America, international, and Amazon Web Services rose 10%, 16%, and 39%, respectively. EPS dropped 51% to $6.12. That result fell considerably short of the analyst consensus estimate of $8.92.</p><p><b>AWS</b></p><p>Through the first nine months of 2021, Amazon&#39;s cloud segment, Amazon Web Services (AWS), generated $44.4 billion of revenue while operating at a 30% margin. For one point of comparison, Google Cloud contributed $13.7 billion of revenue for the first nine months of 2021 and is unprofitable, as it reported a loss of $2.2 billion.</p><p>What&#39;s even more staggering is the pace of AWS&#39;s growth. During Q3 2021, AWS generated $16.1 billion of revenue, which represented 39% year-over-year growth. Investors can see that the quarterly operating income of $4.9 billion for the AWS segment was more than Amazon&#39;s entire business combined. Amazon Web Services is arguably becoming the most important pillar of the company&#39;s ecosystem.</p><p><b>Digital advertising</b></p><p>Amazon has been able to reinvest the profits from its cloud business into other segments, as the company works to differentiate itself from other technology behemoths. One area that is quickly becoming an important crux of Amazon&#39;s business is digital advertising.</p><p>According to eMarketer, Amazon is expected to comprise 10.7% of the U.S. digital ad market in 2021 and grow to 12.8% by 2023. Although the uptick has been bolstered by increasing consumer reliance on digital shopping during the pandemic, one could argue that this theme will stick because Amazon&#39;s platform makes it more time-efficient and cost-effective for consumers to make purchases online versus going to a physical retail location.</p><p>The boom on the digital ad side of its business could serve as another lucrative catalyst for the company as it gains market share from Google and Meta Platforms. On the contrary, eMarketer predicts that Google&#39;s digital ad business in the U.S. is expected to decrease from 28.9% in 2020 to 26.6% in 2023.</p><p>Amazon is well-positioned to benefit from enterprise investment in digital transformation. As the company gains market share over its competition, AWS&#39;s capital efficient margin profile will continue fueling additional growth drivers as the company looks to enter new industries.</p><p><b>Prime Membership</b></p><p>Since the pandemic, Amazon has attracted about 30 million new members to its Prime membership program each year (in 2020 and 2021), according to estimates from Consumer Intelligence Research Partners, LLC (CIRP).</p><p>Meanwhile, membership renewal rates continued to improve. “The renewal rate after one year hit 94%, while the rate after two years is an impressive 98%, which any other retailer or membership driven business would envy,” said CIRP’s other Partner and cofounder, Mike Levin.</p><p>More information from the CIRP report: “As of December 2021, Amazon had 172 million US members. In each of 2020 and 2021, Amazon Prime added about 30 million members in the US. We attribute much of this increase to significantly greater online shopping during the COVID-19 pandemic. This served to accelerate Prime membership growth from slower rates in the previous few years.”</p><p><b>Analysts see upside for the stock in 2022</b></p><p>Earlier this year, BofA analyst Justin Post named Amazon his favorite FAANG stock for 2022, seeing a positive outlook on e-commerce for the next three to five years and growth in Amazon Web Services cloud business.</p><p>The stock has zero Sell ratings, three Holds, and 50 Buys or Overweights, according to analysts surveyed by FactSet.</p><p>“Though our estimates come down, we believe lower expectations should help de-risk shares and AMZN will become a cleaner story to own through 2022,” J.P. Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth wrote in a research note.</p><p>Although Amazon performed well amid a challenging holiday season, Anmuth lowered his first-quarter revenue estimate to $120.5 billion, and trimmed his yearly earnings per share guidance to $75.17, down from $79.47 due to elevated labor, operational, and inflationary costs.</p><p>Despite the near-term headwinds, Amazon remains J.P. Morgan’s overall top pick, with Anmuth reiterating his Overweight rating and $4,350 price target.</p><p>Revenue should begin to accelerate in the second quarter as costs ease back. Further gains could come as Amazon boosts sales in the grocery, apparel, accessories, and the furniture and appliances sectors, all while selectively increasing prices. Already, the company has raised fulfillment fees by 5%, a move that could add an additional $3 billion in 2022. Anmuth believes Amazon could also hike its Prime membership fees sometime this year.</p><p>Amazon also has doubled its fulfillment network and increased its warehouse capacity. Now that the company is no longer space-constrained, it is free to meet elevated demand and invest heavily in marketing, Anmuth said.</p><p>Amazon had a tough 2021, gaining just 4% for the year while the S&amp;P 500 rallied 30% —but analysts see upside for the stock in 2022.</p></body></html>","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>Amazon Earnings Preview: What to Watch on Feb. 3</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\">\nAmazon Earnings Preview: What to Watch on Feb. 3\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<a class=\"head\" href=\"https://laohu8.com/wemedia/1079075236\">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Tiger Newspress </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2022-01-25 16:41</p>\n</div>\n\n</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p>Amazon is slated to report its fourth-quarter and full-year 2021 results after the market close on Thursday, Feb. 3.

Hence why I think it’s a “hold” until the global outlook improves.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":553,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":145747306,"gmtCreate":1626250091405,"gmtModify":1703756324107,"author":{"id":"3574484198588936","authorId":"3574484198588936","name":"Eaglewings","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532f4e45cb093f21d9a38905184a4bb9","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574484198588936","authorIdStr":"3574484198588936"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It’s about time!&nbsp;","listText":"It’s about time!&nbsp;","text":"It’s about time!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":10,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/145747306","repostId":"1158281742","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158281742","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1626249848,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1158281742?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-14 16:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple shares rises nearly 1% in premarket trading.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158281742","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Apple shares rises nearly 1% in premarket trading.\nApple Inc. has asked suppliers to build as many a","content":"<p>Apple&nbsp;shares rises nearly&nbsp;1% in premarket&nbsp;trading.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/35d519e7b8520bdf005ef08215187349\" tg-width=\"1290\" tg-height=\"619\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Apple Inc. has asked suppliers to build as many as 90 million next-generation iPhones this year, a sharp increase from its 2020 iPhone shipments, according to people with knowledge of the matter.</p>\n<p>The Cupertino, California-based tech giant has maintained a consistent level in recent years of roughly 75 million units for the initial run from a device’s launch through the end of the year.

If AI is indeed about data then something has to feed it, just like the lion. That something is Palantir.</p><p>In this article, I will attempt to define PLTR as an operating system sitting on top of a user&#39;s various and sundry systems in order to easily access and order myriad data sources quickly and legibly.</p><p>Here are four ways PLTR resembles Microsoft (MSFT) the most famous and successful operating system developer in history.</p><p><b>1. Palantir sits on top of other systems just like Windows does.</b></p><p>What do operating systems do? They sit on top of everything else including data, software, operations, etc. They manage everything underneath them so nothing gets out of control. In my estimation, the best, most descriptive name for an operating system is one I worked on decades ago: Master Control Program {MCP} from Unisys (see here).

But still, it is about mastering control and that&#39;s what operating systems do.</p><p><b>2. Gotham and Foundry are not the end but only the beginning.</b></p><p>Many years ago I bought an IBM PC with a 5MB (yep, MB not GB or TB) hard drive for a client to run his payroll on. It was running MS-DOS and Microsoft basic.</p><p>Fast forward 30 some years later and we now have Microsoft Azure running every imaginable application for every imaginable customer on the cloud. And little old MS-DOS is now Office 365 many times connected to Windows Server.</p><p>The point here is there is much more to come from PLTR in future years other than Gotham and Foundry. I am certain those new applications are in process as we speak.</p><p>Where exactly will PLTR&#39;s systems be in 5, 10, or 20 years? I certainly don&#39;t know but I am willing to bet (by owning the stock) it will more than likely resemble Microsoft&#39;s historic path than say Oracle&#39;s.</p><p><b>Per Palantir&#39;s COO Shyam Sankar:</b></p><blockquote>Of course, trillion dollar is well short of our ambition over the next 10 years. We always have and will always continue to focus on building cutting-edge product that the world needs anticipating the future, operating with precision, building before the need is obvious,</blockquote><p>Source:Seeking Alpha</p><p>So &#34;building before the need is obvious&#34; means there is much more coming from Palantir and, in fact, some of it is already on the way. Just like Microsoft, PLTR is building for a future that is unknown on the one hand but certain in others - there will be massively more data to be analyzed and whoever does it best will be the next Microsoft.</p><p><b>3. Palantir&#39;s next 10 years could be like Microsoft&#39;s early years.</b></p><p>Since Palantir was in business for 17 years before it went public I am going to compare PLTR to MSFT beginning in 1992 about 17 years after it was founded by Bill Gates and Paul Allen. MSFT&#39;s revenue in 1992 was about $1.5 billion close to Palantir&#39;s revenue of $1.1 billion in 2020.</p><p>Just as a curiosity, let&#39;s look at MSFT&#39;s 3, 5, and 10-year future returns based upon the billion-plus revenue of 1992.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ad5e3e0e226264cba87e4902d1143ac\" tg-width=\"647\" tg-height=\"387\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>NASDAQ and Author</span></p><p>Note Palantir was also founded by two well-known tech investors Peter Thiel and Alex Karp. A little older than Microsoft&#39;s founders and perhaps a little wiser too.</p><p>The hair is a little different but notice each picture has one guy in a sweater and one guy in a suit.

Both software companies were up 400%, but one in four months and one in five years.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cf096508c2197eebaafaf7833770cb05\" tg-width=\"644\" tg-height=\"383\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>NASDAQ and author</span></p><p><b>4. SBC (Stock Based Compensation) doesn&#39;t seem to have hurt Microsoft.</b></p><p>One of the arguments Palantir critics often mention is an over-reliance on SBC driving up the PLTR share count from about 900 million in the 3rd quarter of 2020 to about two billion in the 3rd quarter of 2021.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b22667e48e9a254fd11bd7ae4693ea1\" tg-width=\"416\" tg-height=\"251\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>Of course, those numbers do not include options provided to employees that have not been cashed in yet.</p><p>But if you look at MSFT, they have generated four billionaires and at least 12,000 millionaires.</p><blockquote>The company&#39;s 1986initial public offering(IPO), and subsequent rise in its share price, created three billionaires and an estimated 12,000 millionaires among Microsoft employees.</blockquote><p>Source:Wikipedia</p><p>Add Steve Ballmer&#39;s $120 billion to the billionaire&#39;s list(see here)although he came to the party later. I am sure Steve had a ton ofSBC.</p><p>As a comparison to MSFT&#39;s 12,000 millionaires, PLTR only has about 3,000 employees.</p><p>Since MSFT currently has a market value of $2.5 trillion versus PLTR $40 billion, it would be hard to argue that SBC will hold PLTR back long-term.</p><p><b>Conclusion:</b></p><p>Artificial Intelligence without data (lots of data) is like Artificial Flowers - pretty, but borderline useless.</p><p>That&#39;s why PLTR&#39;s current data acquisition/manipulation operating systems, Foundry and Gotham, are so important to their AI efforts. Those who have the best quality data will have the best AI.</p><p>There can be little doubt that data and its related AI will be everywhere soon, from your phone to your TV to your garage door opener.</p><p>And we are not talking about just digital data either. There will be data acquisition of voice, terrain, faxes, encrypted messages, texts, photographs, physical movements, people, and things.</p><p>How about the distance, speed, and spin of every golf stroke on the PGA Tour?</p><p>And Steph Curry&#39;s individual finger grip pressure, ball rotation, and tightness of his shoestrings on every 30-foot 3-pointer he makes?</p><p>While the current estimates for the amount of data available and captured over the next 5, 10, or 20 years are high and growing, I think it is still vastly underestimated.</p><p>That&#39;s what Palantir knows and why it is an excellent long-term investment.</p><p>Buy PLTR if you have a long-term investment plan. It will prosper in any economic environment.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Palantir: The Microsoft Of Artificial Intelligence</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\">\nPalantir: The Microsoft Of Artificial Intelligence\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-02-01 17:54 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4482952-palantir-stock-resembles-microsoft><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryPalantir sits on top of other systems just like Windows does.Gotham and Foundry are not the end but only the beginning.Palantir's next 10 years could be like Microsoft's early years.SBC (Stock ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4482952-palantir-stock-resembles-microsoft\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PLTR":"Palantir Technologies Inc."},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4482952-palantir-stock-resembles-microsoft","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1196808170","content_text":"SummaryPalantir sits on top of other systems just like Windows does.Gotham and Foundry are not the end but only the beginning.Palantir's next 10 years could be like Microsoft's early years.SBC (Stock Based Compensation) doesn't seem to have hurt Microsoft.Trying to define what uber-mysterious Palantir (PLTR) does is akin to Churchill's famous quote regarding Russia \"It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma; but perhaps there is a key. \"How can a company that's been in existence almost 20 years still be such a mystery to so many?

Gotham and Foundry are not the end but only the beginning.Many years ago I bought an IBM PC with a 5MB (yep, MB not GB or TB) hard drive for a client to run his payroll on. It was running MS-DOS and Microsoft basic.Fast forward 30 some years later and we now have Microsoft Azure running every imaginable application for every imaginable customer on the cloud. And little old MS-DOS is now Office 365 many times connected to Windows Server.The point here is there is much more to come from PLTR in future years other than Gotham and Foundry. I am certain those new applications are in process as we speak.Where exactly will PLTR's systems be in 5, 10, or 20 years? I certainly don't know but I am willing to bet (by owning the stock) it will more than likely resemble Microsoft's historic path than say Oracle's.Per Palantir's COO Shyam Sankar:Of course, trillion dollar is well short of our ambition over the next 10 years. We always have and will always continue to focus on building cutting-edge product that the world needs anticipating the future, operating with precision, building before the need is obvious,Source:Seeking AlphaSo \"building before the need is obvious\" means there is much more coming from Palantir and, in fact, some of it is already on the way. Just like Microsoft, PLTR is building for a future that is unknown on the one hand but certain in others - there will be massively more data to be analyzed and whoever does it best will be the next Microsoft.3. Palantir's next 10 years could be like Microsoft's early years.Since Palantir was in business for 17 years before it went public I am going to compare PLTR to MSFT beginning in 1992 about 17 years after it was founded by Bill Gates and Paul Allen. MSFT's revenue in 1992 was about $1.5 billion close to Palantir's revenue of $1.1 billion in 2020.Just as a curiosity, let's look at MSFT's 3, 5, and 10-year future returns based upon the billion-plus revenue of 1992.NASDAQ and AuthorNote Palantir was also founded by two well-known tech investors Peter Thiel and Alex Karp. A little older than Microsoft's founders and perhaps a little wiser too.The hair is a little different but notice each picture has one guy in a sweater and one guy in a suit. That may or may not represent a strong investment correlation.The equivalent stock performance for PLTR from the initial listing date to now would be as shown below.Some analysts say PLTR is vastly overvalued and looking at the chart below you can see the logic of that argument. Both software companies were up 400%, but one in four months and one in five years.NASDAQ and author4. SBC (Stock Based Compensation) doesn't seem to have hurt Microsoft.One of the arguments Palantir critics often mention is an over-reliance on SBC driving up the PLTR share count from about 900 million in the 3rd quarter of 2020 to about two billion in the 3rd quarter of 2021.Seeking AlphaOf course, those numbers do not include options provided to employees that have not been cashed in yet.But if you look at MSFT, they have generated four billionaires and at least 12,000 millionaires.The company's 1986initial public offering(IPO), and subsequent rise in its share price, created three billionaires and an estimated 12,000 millionaires among Microsoft employees.Source:WikipediaAdd Steve Ballmer's $120 billion to the billionaire's list(see here)although he came to the party later. I am sure Steve had a ton ofSBC.As a comparison to MSFT's 12,000 millionaires, PLTR only has about 3,000 employees.Since MSFT currently has a market value of $2.5 trillion versus PLTR $40 billion, it would be hard to argue that SBC will hold PLTR back long-term.Conclusion:Artificial Intelligence without data (lots of data) is like Artificial Flowers - pretty, but borderline useless.That's why PLTR's current data acquisition/manipulation operating systems, Foundry and Gotham, are so important to their AI efforts. Those who have the best quality data will have the best AI.There can be little doubt that data and its related AI will be everywhere soon, from your phone to your TV to your garage door opener.And we are not talking about just digital data either. There will be data acquisition of voice, terrain, faxes, encrypted messages, texts, photographs, physical movements, people, and things.How about the distance, speed, and spin of every golf stroke on the PGA Tour?And Steph Curry's individual finger grip pressure, ball rotation, and tightness of his shoestrings on every 30-foot 3-pointer he makes?While the current estimates for the amount of data available and captured over the next 5, 10, or 20 years are high and growing, I think it is still vastly underestimated.That's what Palantir knows and why it is an excellent long-term investment.Buy PLTR if you have a long-term investment plan. It will prosper in any economic environment.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":184,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":341767146,"gmtCreate":1617857589285,"gmtModify":1704704024713,"author":{"id":"3574484198588936","authorId":"3574484198588936","name":"Eaglewings","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532f4e45cb093f21d9a38905184a4bb9","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574484198588936","authorIdStr":"3574484198588936"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I think we should consider moving away from dividing companies into growth, value etc.Companies exist and play a role in our societies and life for a reason.

far from it. A month of underperformance hardly meets the criteria for a loss of dominance. Further, the weakness of tech and growth stocks has started to reverse of late, clawing back about half of that initial underperformance.\nWith stocks likeApple,Facebook, andAmazontrading down to their 200-day moving averages, what's next? Is tech ready to make a comeback, or is this just a pause along the road of further underperformance? I believe it is the latter.\nThis isn't your grandfather's momentum\nIn recent years, technology stocks have been synonymous with momentum. Today, tech accounts for nearly 35% of the widely trackediShares Momentum ETF (MTUM). This is about to change.\nMTUM will rebalance during the last week of May, and the weighting to technology will likely be cut in half. Estimates forecast thatfinancials,consumer discretionary,andindustrialswill carry the largest weights, and with that, additional flows will likely be attracted to those sectors.\nThis simple reconstitution is yet another catalyst for further underperformance from technology. Those that want exposure to momentum, whether through a passive ETF or an actively managed strategy, will by rule be owning less tech and more value. In fact, given tech's heavy weighting in most indexes, every 1% rotation out of \"growth & defensive\" sectors is nearly a 3% increase into \"cyclical\" sectors.\nValuation difference: hardly a dent\nAlthough the tech sector’s underperformance in 2021 has been noteworthy, it hasn’t made a dent in the historically wide valuation difference between growth and value stocks.\nLet’s not forget that over the past 10-years, growth has outperformed value by an average of 7%per year. I think many investors still haven’t come to terms with the idea that value can outperform for an extended period.\nAs I wrote in February, “The problem is that current prices [for growth stocks] necessitate a level of future growth that will be very difficult to realize”.  I still believe this to be the case. For example,Zoomis down 43% from its all-time high, but the stock still trades at 84x next year’s earnings.Teslais similar, down 23% from its high, but still trades at 145x forward earnings.\nValue’s outperformance this year has only driven the price-to-earnings premium in the tech-heavy growth index back to 2-standard deviations above normal. We have a long way to go before the valuation gap normalizes.\nInterest rates: a (short-lived) opportunity for tech\nInterest rate movements have been the primary driver of relative performance between growth and value.\nDays when interest rates are rising, growth and technology struggle relative to value and cyclicals.  I believe it is likely that interest rates drift sideways to lower in the coming weeks, allowing oversold conditions in certain tech names to adjust.\nFirst, the interest rate differential between treasuries and many international government bonds is starting to attract foreign buyers to U.S. debt. European and Japanese buyers can earn an additional 1.2% by purchasing 10-year U.S. government debt versus 10-year bunds or JGBs, even after adjustments for currency risk.\nThis increased demand may serve to compress U.S. rates for a period. Additionally, sentiment has become extreme regarding U.S. treasury bonds — usually a good contra indicator. The percentage of bearish bond investors (betting rates will rise) is in the 90thpercentile, and the 6-month rate of change in the 10-year yield is in the 97thpercentile.\nA normalization of sentiment would be another headwind to rising rates in the near term. With several large tech names at technical support, and investment flows into technology (as measured by XLK) weak, we could be due for a near-term reversal in performance leadership as the momentum higher in interest rates wanes.\nHowever, it’s unlikely to last. As foreign economies begin to ramp up vaccination efforts and their economies more fully reopen, their interest rates should rise as those bond markets anticipate higher growth and inflation.\nThe interest rate gap should narrow, making U.S. debt relatively less attractive to foreign buyers – less demand, lower prices, higher rates for treasuries. Further, the Federal Reserve has yet to push back against rising long-term interest rates, and the10-year yielddoesn’t hit technical resistance until to the 2.0% to 2.25% range.\nTaken together, U.S. rates should resume higher as we move into the second half of the year, creating a persistent headwind for tech’s relative performance.\nIt’s not all bad\nIt is important to keep in mind that this is relative performance story … not one of technology crashing and burning. The stock market today remains remarkably broad, with 96% of the stocks in the S&P 500 above their 200-day moving averages. The last time we saw a reading this high was late-2009. And even thoughtechnologyhas lagged, 90% of tech stocks are in an uptrend.\nWe know from history that rates and stocks can rise together. Even rates and technology stocks can rise together (see 2013 as an example). However, in the game of relative investment performance, my view remains that tech continues to fall behind.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":139,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3572817570586604","authorId":"3572817570586604","name":"AlphaKK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/31614816d2f82318ead2a8b020b02b0f","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3572817570586604","authorIdStr":"3572817570586604"},"content":"Well said.

Their market caps, not so much.</p>\n<p>This past week, the world’s five largest tech companies—<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a>(ticker: AAPL),<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a>(MSFT),<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon.com</a>(AMZN),<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOG\">Alphabet</a>(GOOGL), andFacebook(FB)—all reported quarterly results. Their collective performance was astonishing. As a group, their revenue increased 36%, to $332 billion. These companies spent the pandemic making gobs of money.</p>\n<p>Butinvestors were unimpressed. While <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a> inched 1.3% higher for the week, the others were all down. Amazongot the worst reception; its stock fell 7.6% on Friday. With all five hovering near all-time highs, investors are taking profits, worried that growth rates are going to slow from here. Beneath the surface, the concerns are well founded. Here are the key takeaways from Big Tech’s huge earnings:</p>\n<p><b>The pandemic boom is over.</b>That’s not to say the pandemic itself is over—the Delta variant is wreaking havoc—but Americans have already made changes in their behavior, and those adjustments are having a major impact on the tech giants.</p>\n<p>It starts with e-commerce. Amazon Chief Financial Officer Brian Olsavsky said on the company’s earnings call that starting in mid-May, growth in e-commerce sales dropped into the midteens from the 30%-to-40% range. People are getting vaccines and leaving the house to buy things that just a few months ago they would have bought online. They’re also shifting some disposable income from online shopping to travel, restaurants, and even events. Olsavsky sees continued tough comparisons for Amazon—and midteens growth rates—for the next few quarters.</p>\n<p>Applebeat expectations in all of its segments, but growth is slowing there, too. Mac sales were up 16% in the June quarter, down from 70% growth three months earlier. iPad sales were up 12%, versus 79% in the March period. This is all still better than before the pandemic, but it suggests that the furious shopping spree for home offices and virtual schooling is coming to an end.Logitech(LOGI), which makes PC peripherals like mice and webcams, had 66% revenue growth in the June quarter, but it sees flat revenue for its fiscal year ending in March 2022.</p>\n<p><b>Component shortages continue.</b>The market’s biggest issue with <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a>’s quarter was its warning that the chip supply shortage has worsened since the end of June—and that the issue will affect the availability of iPads and, even worse, iPhones. In September, Apple is expected torelease the iPhone 13—and there’s a risk that Apple might not be able to meet demand.<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QCOM\">Qualcomm</a>(QCOM) this past week warned that the chip shortage could drag into 2022. This could take a while to fix.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Apple CEO Tim Cook said on the company’s earnings call that shipping costs are higher, too. I saw evidence of that from my seat at a San Francisco Giants game this past week. Looking past McCovey Cove toward San Francisco <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BYBK\">Bay</a>, there were at least a dozen container ships lined up to get into the Port of Oakland, which saw an 11% increase in cargo volume in the first half. The port is backed up in part due to a shortage of dockworkers. Freight rates are at record levels, and the holiday merchandising season is fast approaching, adding to demand for freight capacity.</p>\n<p><b>Online advertising is blazing hot.</b>On a brighter note for investors, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOG\">Alphabet</a>’sad business grew 68% in the latest quarter, including an 84% jump in advertising at YouTube. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a>’sad business grew 56%, driven by a 47% year-over-year increase in ad pricing. Amazon’s “other” revenue category, mostly ads, was up 87%, to $7.9 billion, nearly $1 billion better than Wall Street estimates. Apple doesn’t break out advertising, but ad strength contributed to the 33% growth in the company’s services business. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a> saw a53% jump in search ads(remember Bing?) and a 97% jump in advertising at <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LNKD\">LinkedIn</a>. It all stems from the reopening of the economy. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a> told analysts that the biggest driver of ad growth was retail, with strong contributions from travel, financial services, and media and entertainment. People are shopping, eating out, and going on vacation, and that’s driving ads.</p>\n<p><b>Cloud adoption is accelerating.</b>The digital transformation trend that everyone in enterprise computing talks about is the real deal. For Amazon, the slowdown in e-commerce growth overshadowed a fantastic quarter for its Amazon Web Services cloud unit, which grew 37%—accelerating from 32% in the March quarter— to $14.8 billion. That was $500 million better than estimates. Microsoft Azure revenue was up 51%, beating the Wall Street consensus by nine percentage points. Alphabet posted 54% growth in its Google Cloud business, accelerating from 46% growth in the March quarter. Google Cloud is rapidly approaching a $20 billion annual revenue run rate. Give it a cloud-like sales multiple of 20 times and the business is worth $400 billion, constituting more than 20% of Alphabet’s current market value.</p>\n<p><b>The wild card.</b>Regulators and legislators scrutinizing Big Tech are surely looking at the latest results and finding a new sense of purpose.

Their market caps, not so much.\nThis past week, the world’s five largest tech companies—Apple(ticker: AAPL),Microsoft(MSFT),Amazon.com(AMZN),Alphabet(GOOGL), andFacebook(FB)—all reported quarterly results. Their collective performance was astonishing. As a group, their revenue increased 36%, to $332 billion. These companies spent the pandemic making gobs of money.\nButinvestors were unimpressed. While Alphabet inched 1.3% higher for the week, the others were all down. Amazongot the worst reception; its stock fell 7.6% on Friday. With all five hovering near all-time highs, investors are taking profits, worried that growth rates are going to slow from here. Beneath the surface, the concerns are well founded. Here are the key takeaways from Big Tech’s huge earnings:\nThe pandemic boom is over.That’s not to say the pandemic itself is over—the Delta variant is wreaking havoc—but Americans have already made changes in their behavior, and those adjustments are having a major impact on the tech giants.\nIt starts with e-commerce. Amazon Chief Financial Officer Brian Olsavsky said on the company’s earnings call that starting in mid-May, growth in e-commerce sales dropped into the midteens from the 30%-to-40% range. People are getting vaccines and leaving the house to buy things that just a few months ago they would have bought online. They’re also shifting some disposable income from online shopping to travel, restaurants, and even events. Olsavsky sees continued tough comparisons for Amazon—and midteens growth rates—for the next few quarters.\nApplebeat expectations in all of its segments, but growth is slowing there, too. Mac sales were up 16% in the June quarter, down from 70% growth three months earlier. iPad sales were up 12%, versus 79% in the March period. This is all still better than before the pandemic, but it suggests that the furious shopping spree for home offices and virtual schooling is coming to an end.Logitech(LOGI), which makes PC peripherals like mice and webcams, had 66% revenue growth in the June quarter, but it sees flat revenue for its fiscal year ending in March 2022.\nComponent shortages continue.The market’s biggest issue with Apple’s quarter was its warning that the chip supply shortage has worsened since the end of June—and that the issue will affect the availability of iPads and, even worse, iPhones. In September, Apple is expected torelease the iPhone 13—and there’s a risk that Apple might not be able to meet demand.Qualcomm(QCOM) this past week warned that the chip shortage could drag into 2022. This could take a while to fix.\nMeanwhile, Apple CEO Tim Cook said on the company’s earnings call that shipping costs are higher, too. I saw evidence of that from my seat at a San Francisco Giants game this past week. Looking past McCovey Cove toward San Francisco Bay, there were at least a dozen container ships lined up to get into the Port of Oakland, which saw an 11% increase in cargo volume in the first half. The port is backed up in part due to a shortage of dockworkers. Freight rates are at record levels, and the holiday merchandising season is fast approaching, adding to demand for freight capacity.\nOnline advertising is blazing hot.On a brighter note for investors, Alphabet’sad business grew 68% in the latest quarter, including an 84% jump in advertising at YouTube. Facebook’sad business grew 56%, driven by a 47% year-over-year increase in ad pricing. Amazon’s “other” revenue category, mostly ads, was up 87%, to $7.9 billion, nearly $1 billion better than Wall Street estimates. Apple doesn’t break out advertising, but ad strength contributed to the 33% growth in the company’s services business. Microsoft saw a53% jump in search ads(remember Bing?) and a 97% jump in advertising at LinkedIn. It all stems from the reopening of the economy. Alphabet told analysts that the biggest driver of ad growth was retail, with strong contributions from travel, financial services, and media and entertainment. People are shopping, eating out, and going on vacation, and that’s driving ads.\nCloud adoption is accelerating.The digital transformation trend that everyone in enterprise computing talks about is the real deal. For Amazon, the slowdown in e-commerce growth overshadowed a fantastic quarter for its Amazon Web Services cloud unit, which grew 37%—accelerating from 32% in the March quarter— to $14.8 billion. That was $500 million better than estimates. Microsoft Azure revenue was up 51%, beating the Wall Street consensus by nine percentage points. Alphabet posted 54% growth in its Google Cloud business, accelerating from 46% growth in the March quarter. Google Cloud is rapidly approaching a $20 billion annual revenue run rate. Give it a cloud-like sales multiple of 20 times and the business is worth $400 billion, constituting more than 20% of Alphabet’s current market value.\nThe wild card.Regulators and legislators scrutinizing Big Tech are surely looking at the latest results and finding a new sense of purpose. The big are getting bigger. And the regulatory risks are getting riskier.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":95,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":147240144,"gmtCreate":1626360922588,"gmtModify":1703758729813,"author":{"id":"3574484198588936","authorId":"3574484198588936","name":"Eaglewings","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532f4e45cb093f21d9a38905184a4bb9","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574484198588936","authorIdStr":"3574484198588936"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"EV will soar.

referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Singapore-based global consumer internet company Sea said its e-commerce arm Shopee will shut down its operations in India amid the company&#39;s poor growth outlook.</p><p>This is the second pullback for Shopee this month, just several weeks after it exited the market in France and after India banned Sea&#39;s Free Fire app. The ban wiped off $16 billion of Sea&#39;s market value in a single day, prompting some investors to offload the company&#39;s shares.</p><p>Shopee said the pullback comes as a result of global market uncertainties and that the company will do its best to make the process as smooth as possible.</p><p>A few weeks ago, Sea said it expects Shopee&#39;s revenue growth to decline to roughly 76% in 2022, after seeing an outstanding 157% growth last year, due to weaker engagements and online purchases.</p><p>Morgan Stanley analyst Mark Goodridge sees the decision as a clear positive for SE as we have struggled to make the underlying unit economics work in the India market.</p><p>&#34;We view this as a positive announcement for two key reasons:</p><ul><li>Management has continued to demonstrate a flexible capital allocation process, where now the risk return on entering India is no longer attractive;</li></ul><ul><li>It should help to control expanding e-commerce losses ... we have always struggled to make the unit economics for Shopee India work “ this is due to the very competitive landscape, Shopee&#39;s very low Average Order Value, and relatively high logistics costs.</li></ul><p>In our note Sea Ltd: Shopee Poland + Shopee India = More Upside, we highlighted that for Shopee to win ~5% GMV market it would cost up to ~US$900m in annual EBITDA losses. Hence, SE&#39;s no longer pursuing this strategy is a clear positive, in our view,&#34; Goodridge said in a client note.</p><p>The analyst finds the current companys market valuation as attractive.</p><p><b>UBS analyst Navin Killa also reflected positively on SEs decision, saying it may signal an improving discipline in cash burn.</b></p><p>&#34;We believe the exit should be viewed positively by the market:</p><ul><li>This supports management&#39;s commentary during FY21 earnings call that the company would take a more calibrated approach towards investments especially on international opportunities ex-ASEAN and Taiwan (with Brazil as the key focus);</li><li>It removes the potential of high cash burn from competing with an ultra-competitive Indian e-commerce market with global and local giants such as Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), Flipkart and JioMart,&#34;

And while I am covering also companies from Germany, France, Great Britain, Sweden or Denmark, I have avoided one country almost completely although it has many interesting investment opportunities: Mainland China.The only company I covered so far&nbsp;is Tencent Holdings Limited (OTCPK:TCEHY).</p>\n<p>And although China has hundreds or thousands of successful companies, most of them are almost unknown in the Western Hemisphere (especially when moving outside of the investing world). And while most investors are familiar with Tencent, there is at least one other company almost every investor has heard of: Alibaba Group Holding Limited (BABA). In the following article, I will analyze Alibaba in my usual way. I will try to determine if Alibaba is a solid business with a wide economic moat and try to answer the question if Alibaba is a solid investment right now.</p>\n<p><b>Business Description</b></p>\n<p>Alibaba Group was founded in 1999 by 18 individuals. Nevertheless, one of these 18 stands out – the former English teacher from Hangzhou, Jack Ma. Over the years, Alibaba evolved in a multinational technology company and with a market capitalization of $570 billion, Alibaba is on the 10thspot on the list of most valuable companies in the world (by market cap). And behind Tencent, which is on the 7thspot on that list, Alibaba is the second most valuable company in China.</p>\n<p>While Alibaba is mostly focused on e-commerce and retail operations, the Alibaba Group is actually a holding company with many different sales services. This includes C2C services, B2C services and B2B services. Aside from retail, the Alibaba Group also offers electronic payment services, shipping search engines and could computing services. The group owns and operates a diverse portfolio of companies around the world in numerous business sectors.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b315044f4644568e7df5d95cc6720995\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"479\"><span>(Source:Alibaba Q4/20 Presentation)</span></p>\n<p>Alibaba is reporting in four different segments:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Core Commerce Revenue</b>: This segment is comprised of platforms operating in retail and wholesale commerce in China as well as logistics services and local consumer services. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 621.1 billion in revenue and RMB 159 billion in income from operations.</li>\n <li><b>Cloud Computing Revenue</b>: This segment is comprised of Alibaba Cloud, which offers different cloud services to customers worldwide like database, storage, big data analytics, a machine learning platform and large-scale computing security. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 60.1 billion, but the segment was not profitable so far (a loss of RMB 9 billion).</li>\n <li><b>Digital Media and Entertainment Revenue</b>: This segment uses the deep data insights to serve the broader interests of consumers through key distribution platforms Youku and Alibaba Pictures as well as other content platforms that provide online videos, films, live events, literature and music. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 31.2 billion, but was also not profitable.</li>\n <li><b>Innovation Initiatives and Others Revenue</b>: This segment includes businesses like Amap, DingTalk, Tmall Genie and others. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 4.8 billion in revenue, but also an operating loss.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0529c547e87a4c0b023289ecb1822cbc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"478\"><span>(Source: Alibaba Q4/20 Presentation)</span></p>\n<p>When looking at the last annual results (fiscal 2021), Alibaba generated RMB 717.3 billion in revenue. Compared to fiscal 2020 (RMB 509.7 billion) this is reflecting an increase of 41%. Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal 2021 was RMB 196.8 billion – an increase of 25% compared to fiscal 2020 (adjusted EBITA of RMB 157.7 billion). Diluted earnings per share actually decreased from RMB 6.99 in fiscal 2020 to RMB 6.84 in fiscal 2021 – reflecting a decrease of 2.1%. But we should not pay too much attention to the earnings per share. Instead, it makes much more sense to look at the free cash flow Alibaba is generating. In fiscal 2021, Alibaba generated RMB 172.7 billion in free cash flow compared to RMB 130.9 billion in free cash flow one year earlier.</p>\n<p><b>Strong Business Among Strong Competitors</b></p>\n<p>What is striking when looking at Alibaba – and what has been discussed several times – is the low multiple for which Alibaba is currently trading. When using the trailing twelve-month GAAP numbers, Alibaba is trading for 25 times earnings, when using the non-GAAP forward numbers, it is trading for a P/E ratio of 20.</p>\n<p>We can compare Alibaba to its peers – companies like Amazon (AMZN), Tencent, Facebook (FB), Microsoft (MSFT) or Alphabet (GOOG). And Alibaba actually belongs in that list as it is not only operating in similar business segments, but it is also growing with similarly high rates. And Alibaba is not only growing with a similar pace; it is actually outperforming most of its peers.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b576dcef2e37a02a6eba5677fded8ef8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"299\"><span>(Source:Alibaba 2020 Investor Presentations)</span></p>\n<p>While Alibaba is growing with a similar pace like these companies, it is trading for a completely different multiple. Right now, Alibaba is trading for a price-cash-flow ratio of 17, while competitors like Tencent, Facebook or Microsoft are trading for a P/FCF ratio between 35 and 40. It is striking, that the market is assigning these competitors a multiple twice as high and Amazon is actually trading for a multiple more than 4 times higher (price-free-cash-flow ratio of 76).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d2f58771a8062c7bb980622b93073e5\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"470\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>Right now, readers might point out, that the comparison to Amazon is misleading as Amazon is still spending a lot of money to achieve future growth and therefore has a lower profit than other companies. And it certainly is true, that Amazon is still focusing on top line growth – sometimes at the expense of bottom-line growth – but so does Alibaba.</p>\n<p>While Amazon spent 10.4% of its revenue as capital expenditures in the last fiscal year, Alibaba spent almost the same amount – 8.9% of revenue. And when looking at the expenses for research and development, we once again see similar numbers. In the last five years, Amazon spent 12.16% of revenue on R&amp;D on average while Alibaba spent 10.38% of its revenue on R&amp;D.</p>\n<p>But while these numbers are quite similar for both companies – Amazon is spending a bit more on R&amp;D than Alibaba – the free cash flow these two companies can generate is completely different. While Amazon only generated 6.7% of revenue as free cash flow in the last fiscal year, Alibaba generated 26.5% of revenue as free cash flow in the last fiscal year – almost four times higher.</p>\n<p>And Alibaba is not only extremely profitable – it was growing with an extremely high pace in the past. During the past ten years, Alibaba could not only grow revenue every single year, it also grew revenue with a CAGR of 62.6%. Earnings per share fluctuated a little bit during these ten years but grew with an even higher pace – a CAGR of 76.29% during the last decade. And finally, free cash flow increased with a CAGR of 59.62% during the last decade.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d3ccaf170c0d86cd8022a68bc3657c30\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"404\"><span>(Source: Author’s work based on numbers from Morningstar)</span></p>\n<p>When looking at Alibaba’s growth rates in the last few years compared to its competitors, Alibaba is also outperforming. When looking at the revenue CAGR of the last 5 years, we get the following numbers:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Amazon: 29.26%</li>\n <li>Facebook: 36.82%</li>\n <li>Tencent: 36.20%</li>\n <li>Alphabet: 19.47%</li>\n <li>Microsoft: 8.85%</li>\n <li>Alibaba: 46.24%</li>\n</ul>\n<p>We can spin it how we want: Alibaba is an extremely profitable company growing with extremely high rates but is trading at an extremely low multiple compared to its competitors. It is growing with a higher pace than Microsoft and Facebook, but trading for half the multiple. It is much more profitable than Amazon and also growing at a higher pace, but trading for a quarter of the valuation multiple. At this point, profitability and growth of Alibaba on the one side and the valuation multiple on the other side does not add up. And we have to ask the question, why Alibaba is trading for such a low multiple although it is outperforming many of its peers that trade for much higher multiples.</p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p>When looking at the past performance of Alibaba, we can see, that steep selloffs are quite common as a similar sell-off happened already three times since the IPO in 2014 with the steepest sell-off being more than 50% off the previous high.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4da83a08f0dcfc73534c206e43cb09d3\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"403\"><span>Data byYCharts</span></p>\n<p>While this might help us a bit, we are still facing high levels of uncertainty and investors usually don’t like uncertainty. Basically, this uncertainty can be summed up in one short sentence: The tense relationship between Alibaba’s founder Jack Ma and the Chinese government is worrying for investors. And this tense relationship is exemplified by several events. It started last year, when the IPO of the company’s fintech affiliate Ant Financial was cancelled. </p>\n<p>This was followed by theinitiation of an antitrust investigation, in which it is investigated if Alibaba had engaged in monopolistic practices (like preventing vendors from selling on other platforms). Additionally, new supervision for Ant Group was also discussed. And finally, at the end of 2020, Jack Ma went missing and it took about three months before the public would hear from him again – another worrying aspect for investors.</p>\n<p>As long as we are talking about risks, there are other aspect I like to mention. I compared Alibaba to Amazon above – and I still think that comparison is appropriate. But we also have to acknowledge, that Alibaba growth potential is limited as the company is mostly focused on China and might have more difficulties to expand globally – compared to Amazon.

And while I am covering also companies from Germany, France, Great Britain, Sweden or Denmark, I have avoided one country almost completely although it has many interesting investment opportunities: Mainland China.The only company I covered so far is Tencent Holdings Limited (OTCPK:TCEHY).\nAnd although China has hundreds or thousands of successful companies, most of them are almost unknown in the Western Hemisphere (especially when moving outside of the investing world). And while most investors are familiar with Tencent, there is at least one other company almost every investor has heard of: Alibaba Group Holding Limited (BABA). In the following article, I will analyze Alibaba in my usual way. I will try to determine if Alibaba is a solid business with a wide economic moat and try to answer the question if Alibaba is a solid investment right now.\nBusiness Description\nAlibaba Group was founded in 1999 by 18 individuals. Nevertheless, one of these 18 stands out – the former English teacher from Hangzhou, Jack Ma. Over the years, Alibaba evolved in a multinational technology company and with a market capitalization of $570 billion, Alibaba is on the 10thspot on the list of most valuable companies in the world (by market cap). And behind Tencent, which is on the 7thspot on that list, Alibaba is the second most valuable company in China.\nWhile Alibaba is mostly focused on e-commerce and retail operations, the Alibaba Group is actually a holding company with many different sales services. This includes C2C services, B2C services and B2B services. Aside from retail, the Alibaba Group also offers electronic payment services, shipping search engines and could computing services. The group owns and operates a diverse portfolio of companies around the world in numerous business sectors.\n(Source:Alibaba Q4/20 Presentation)\nAlibaba is reporting in four different segments:\n\nCore Commerce Revenue: This segment is comprised of platforms operating in retail and wholesale commerce in China as well as logistics services and local consumer services. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 621.1 billion in revenue and RMB 159 billion in income from operations.\nCloud Computing Revenue: This segment is comprised of Alibaba Cloud, which offers different cloud services to customers worldwide like database, storage, big data analytics, a machine learning platform and large-scale computing security. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 60.1 billion, but the segment was not profitable so far (a loss of RMB 9 billion).\nDigital Media and Entertainment Revenue: This segment uses the deep data insights to serve the broader interests of consumers through key distribution platforms Youku and Alibaba Pictures as well as other content platforms that provide online videos, films, live events, literature and music. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 31.2 billion, but was also not profitable.\nInnovation Initiatives and Others Revenue: This segment includes businesses like Amap, DingTalk, Tmall Genie and others. In fiscal 2021, this segment generated RMB 4.8 billion in revenue, but also an operating loss.\n\n(Source: Alibaba Q4/20 Presentation)\nWhen looking at the last annual results (fiscal 2021), Alibaba generated RMB 717.3 billion in revenue. Compared to fiscal 2020 (RMB 509.7 billion) this is reflecting an increase of 41%. Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal 2021 was RMB 196.8 billion – an increase of 25% compared to fiscal 2020 (adjusted EBITA of RMB 157.7 billion). Diluted earnings per share actually decreased from RMB 6.99 in fiscal 2020 to RMB 6.84 in fiscal 2021 – reflecting a decrease of 2.1%. But we should not pay too much attention to the earnings per share. Instead, it makes much more sense to look at the free cash flow Alibaba is generating. In fiscal 2021, Alibaba generated RMB 172.7 billion in free cash flow compared to RMB 130.9 billion in free cash flow one year earlier.\nStrong Business Among Strong Competitors\nWhat is striking when looking at Alibaba – and what has been discussed several times – is the low multiple for which Alibaba is currently trading. When using the trailing twelve-month GAAP numbers, Alibaba is trading for 25 times earnings, when using the non-GAAP forward numbers, it is trading for a P/E ratio of 20.\nWe can compare Alibaba to its peers – companies like Amazon (AMZN), Tencent, Facebook (FB), Microsoft (MSFT) or Alphabet (GOOG). And Alibaba actually belongs in that list as it is not only operating in similar business segments, but it is also growing with similarly high rates. And Alibaba is not only growing with a similar pace; it is actually outperforming most of its peers.\n(Source:Alibaba 2020 Investor Presentations)\nWhile Alibaba is growing with a similar pace like these companies, it is trading for a completely different multiple. Right now, Alibaba is trading for a price-cash-flow ratio of 17, while competitors like Tencent, Facebook or Microsoft are trading for a P/FCF ratio between 35 and 40. It is striking, that the market is assigning these competitors a multiple twice as high and Amazon is actually trading for a multiple more than 4 times higher (price-free-cash-flow ratio of 76).\nData by YCharts\nRight now, readers might point out, that the comparison to Amazon is misleading as Amazon is still spending a lot of money to achieve future growth and therefore has a lower profit than other companies. And it certainly is true, that Amazon is still focusing on top line growth – sometimes at the expense of bottom-line growth – but so does Alibaba.\nWhile Amazon spent 10.4% of its revenue as capital expenditures in the last fiscal year, Alibaba spent almost the same amount – 8.9% of revenue. And when looking at the expenses for research and development, we once again see similar numbers. In the last five years, Amazon spent 12.16% of revenue on R&D on average while Alibaba spent 10.38% of its revenue on R&D.\nBut while these numbers are quite similar for both companies – Amazon is spending a bit more on R&D than Alibaba – the free cash flow these two companies can generate is completely different. While Amazon only generated 6.7% of revenue as free cash flow in the last fiscal year, Alibaba generated 26.5% of revenue as free cash flow in the last fiscal year – almost four times higher.\nAnd Alibaba is not only extremely profitable – it was growing with an extremely high pace in the past. During the past ten years, Alibaba could not only grow revenue every single year, it also grew revenue with a CAGR of 62.6%. Earnings per share fluctuated a little bit during these ten years but grew with an even higher pace – a CAGR of 76.29% during the last decade. And finally, free cash flow increased with a CAGR of 59.62% during the last decade.\n(Source: Author’s work based on numbers from Morningstar)\nWhen looking at Alibaba’s growth rates in the last few years compared to its competitors, Alibaba is also outperforming. When looking at the revenue CAGR of the last 5 years, we get the following numbers:\n\nAmazon: 29.26%\nFacebook: 36.82%\nTencent: 36.20%\nAlphabet: 19.47%\nMicrosoft: 8.85%\nAlibaba: 46.24%\n\nWe can spin it how we want: Alibaba is an extremely profitable company growing with extremely high rates but is trading at an extremely low multiple compared to its competitors. It is growing with a higher pace than Microsoft and Facebook, but trading for half the multiple. It is much more profitable than Amazon and also growing at a higher pace, but trading for a quarter of the valuation multiple. At this point, profitability and growth of Alibaba on the one side and the valuation multiple on the other side does not add up. And we have to ask the question, why Alibaba is trading for such a low multiple although it is outperforming many of its peers that trade for much higher multiples.\nRisks\nWhen looking at the past performance of Alibaba, we can see, that steep selloffs are quite common as a similar sell-off happened already three times since the IPO in 2014 with the steepest sell-off being more than 50% off the previous high.\nData byYCharts\nWhile this might help us a bit, we are still facing high levels of uncertainty and investors usually don’t like uncertainty. Basically, this uncertainty can be summed up in one short sentence: The tense relationship between Alibaba’s founder Jack Ma and the Chinese government is worrying for investors. And this tense relationship is exemplified by several events. It started last year, when the IPO of the company’s fintech affiliate Ant Financial was cancelled. \nThis was followed by theinitiation of an antitrust investigation, in which it is investigated if Alibaba had engaged in monopolistic practices (like preventing vendors from selling on other platforms). Additionally, new supervision for Ant Group was also discussed. And finally, at the end of 2020, Jack Ma went missing and it took about three months before the public would hear from him again – another worrying aspect for investors.\nAs long as we are talking about risks, there are other aspect I like to mention. I compared Alibaba to Amazon above – and I still think that comparison is appropriate. But we also have to acknowledge, that Alibaba growth potential is limited as the company is mostly focused on China and might have more difficulties to expand globally – compared to Amazon. But considering the growing middle class in China and the high pace with which the economy is still growing we should not worry too much about Alibaba’s growth potential.\nThere is a final risk Imentioned in my last article about Tencentand that risk is also applying to Alibaba:\n\n And a final risk is the fact that Tencent is a Chinese company. It is especially difficult to understand different trends before they are happening and predict the future, but while I am familiar with the German culture and the people (habits, preferences, etc.) and can deal with similar countries like France, the United Kingdom, Sweden or the United States, it is rather difficult for me to understand and analyze the consumer behavior and preferences of the Chinese population.

And it is also interesting, that Wall Street analysts as well as Seeking Alpha contributors are extremely bullish about Alibaba right now.\n(Source:Seeking Alpha)\nBalance Sheet\nWhen facing challenges, it is especially reassuring if we are dealing with a solid balance sheet enabling the company to withstand challenges and stormy market conditions.

The current macro backdrop has not made a favourable environment for high-growth segment stocks. The recent release of meeting minutes from the FOMC’s policy meeting in December, paired with increasing consumer price pressures at record-setting levels have triggered hawkish sentiments supporting faster and sooner rate hikes beginning as early as March to curb runaway inflation. The hastened withdrawal of pandemic-era stimulus, coupled with the impending return of rate hikes have caused investors to turn risk averse on high-growth, high-valuation stocks. This is largely due to uncertainties over how the upcoming rate hikes might erode the value of future gains or stall business growth due to rising costs of capital.</p><p>While the imminent tightening of monetary policy has stoked fear amongst equity investors as they mull on how to price the upcoming rate hike impacts into asset valuations, we believe Palantir will emerge favourably in both the near- and long-term. On one hand, the inflation-resistant nature of Palantir’s business, paired with its high-growth prospects and ability to generate robust cash flows from operations should make it an attractive stock within the near-term amidst mounting macro pressures. Meanwhile, in the longer term, Palantir’s technology will continue to play a critical role in supporting key digital trends like AI, which will soon become a necessity instead of novelty in the data-driven era. On these considerations, we believe Palantir&#39;s stock will soon resume its upwardmomentum, with the upcoming earnings report being a potential catalyst to jumpstart its performance.</p><p><b>Near-Term Considerations for Palantir</b></p><p>In line with the broader market, Palantir&#39;s stock rallied on the first trading session of the year, with intraday gains of as much as 4%. However, the momentum was short-lived and has since been overtaken by an extended market rout triggered by increasingly hawkish narratives from Fed representatives. The rising urgency for faster and sooner rate hikes to combat the hottest inflation in close to four decades has sent market benchmarks like the S&amp;P 500 on a rundown of close to 5%. Meanwhile, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 plunged by more than 8% since the year opened due to souring sentiment for high-growth, high-valuation stocks that have largely outperformed in the past 20 months. Instead, mature tech companies likeDell(NYSE:DELL) and HP(NYSE:HPQ)have been resilient due to their low debt, high cash flow, and stable-growth businesses, which provides a strong hedge against the impending rate hikes.</p><p>However, Palantir’s upcoming earnings report will likely jumpstart the stock toward a similar trend as the mature tech companies. The company boasts a promising growth outlook built on continued innovation, with high visibility into future cash flows thanks to a robust contracted revenue base. Palantir also operates on a strong balance sheet, which is currently debt-free and boasts a robust cash-on-hand balance of more than $2.3 billion to support continued growth.</p><p>While the impending rate hikes have put investors at the edge of their seats about potentially stalled growth and development in next-generation tech companies due to rising costs of capital in coming years, the fact that Palantir’s operations are already self-sufficient should not be overlooked. In the first nine months of 2021, Palantir generated more than $240 million in cash from operating activities alone, despite year-to-date net losses of $364 million. Much of the losses were driven by share-based compensation expenses, which will likely continue to put pressure on its profit margins in the near-term as the company prioritizes the retention of talent to support ongoing expansion of the business. However, these expenses are non-cash in nature, and when that is taken into account, Palantir is actually profitable on a cash-basis and have continued to demonstrate strength in generating significant free cash flows to fund its growth roadmap. This accordingly provides it with partial immunity against hemorrhaging valuation prospects due to rising costs of capital from the upcoming rate hikes.</p><p>The company’s near-term growth trajectory also remains intact. As of the third quarter period ended September 2021, Palantir’s total unrealized deal value grew by 50% year-over-year to $3.6 billion with an average duration of at least four years. Palantir has continued to exhibit strength in both its commercial and government segments. Recent contract wins and extensions have been a testament to the effectiveness of Palantir’s software solutions, as well as accelerated adoption from both the private and public sectors as operations become increasingly digital, generating vast troves of data that will need to be integrated, processed and analyzed to drive key decision-making processes. In addition to the new and renewed contracts during the last three months of 2021, which have been discussed in our most recent coverage, Palantir has rung into the new year with a notable partnership forged with Hyundai Heavy Industries. The $25 million multi-year deal is a symbol of Palantir’s growing presence across the West’s APAC allies, and represents an extension of Palantir’s success in growing its commercial segment over the past year. Under the arrangement, Hyundai Heavy will leverage Palantir’s commercial software, likely Foundry, to create tools for breaking down the siloed data fields across its affiliate groups, which range from shipbuilding to industrial machinery processes, and facilitate better-integrated operations. The two companies intend to create a joint venture to commercialize the new tools built on Palantir’s platform, which will create greater exposure for Palantir’s technological capabilities to the global commercial sector, and further fortify the company’s growth prospects.</p><p><b>Long-Term Considerations for Palantir</b></p><p>Over the longer-term, we foresee Palantir’s technologies to evolve from a novelty into a necessity. AI-driven analytical tools like Palantir’s Gotham and Foundry will remain critical functions across both the public and private sectors to ensuring the seamless integration of data platforms and improving decision-making in the increasingly digital world. And Palantir is already in the works of pushing its software towards the mainstream by offering a wide range of solutions for organizations across both the private and public sectors to choose from on an as-needed basis.</p><p>The introduction of “Foundry for Builders” in July is one of Palantir’s earliest strategies in opening up its offerings to the mass market. Foundry for Builders is offered under a subscription-based model and breaks down the traditional cost barriers that have hindered access to Palantir’s software solution for smaller commercial customers like Day One start-ups. The new offering enables Palantir to extend its Foundry capabilities to support all types of organizations, ranging from multinational corporations with complex data compilations to small- and medium-sized businesses with limited resources looking for a cost-effective data analytical tool. The strategy is expected to encourage mass market adoption of Palantir’s commercial segment offerings, and ensure further penetration into a total addressable market that is expected to grow from $400 billion today into $500 billion by 2025 and $1.6 trillion by the end of the decade. While the new offering is still in beta phase with availability offered to only a small cohort of start-ups, the positive reception received to date indicates significant potential for wider adoption once introduced to the broader market.</p><p>The recent introduction of industry-specific modular solutions built on Foundry, such as “Carbon Emissions Management” and “Anti-Money Laundering/Know Your Client for Crypto” (“AML / KYC for Crypto”), will also appeal to both government agencies and private businesses looking to tackle some of today’s most challenging problems. With increasing global calls for cutting pollution and combating climate change, Palantir’s Carbon Emissions Management tool can add value by helping its corporate clients integrate emissions data, such as daily pollution volumes across the supply chain and emissions reduction targets, with planned revenues and margins to determine the best trade-off based on their respective business plans and objectives. For instance, the Carbon Emissions Management tool can consolidate emissions data collected from disparate sources in real-time and simulate related impacts under different scenarios to drive the decision-making process on business changes required. The modular offering enables Palantir to capitalize on opportunities arising from growing ESG needs in the private sector, while also helping its clients better manage their emissions impacts and “develop a competitive edge to beat competition and win the market”.</p><p>TheAML/KYC for Crypto solution is also deployed at an opportune time. Securities regulators have made it a priority to rein in the fast-growing cryptocurrency market with new rules, while cryptocurrency exchanges look for solutions to ensure compliance with the changing regulatory landscape. The new AML/KYC for Crypto tool is built on Palantir’s years of expertise in helping both regulators and private financial institutions address AML/KYC compliance considerations, and can be deployed in a time- and cost-effective manner for both sides of the equation across.AML/KYC for Crypto enables a large variety of use-cases ranging from real-time compliance tracking across disparate sources for cryptocurrency exchanges, to potentially regulatory simulations for securities regulators. This makes Palantir well-positioned to capitalize on the rising crypto momentum in coming years – the global blockchain market is expected to grow into a $67 billion opportunity by 2026, with proper management ofAML/KYC considerations encouraging adoption. And North America, Palantir’s key market, will maintain the largest share, underpinning robust demand for the new industry-specific solution in coming years.</p><p>Palantir is also making steady progress towards its ultimate goal of becoming “the U.S. government’s central operating system”. In addition to Palantir’s continued push for its software solutions to be implemented across government agencies ranging from defense to healthcare, the public sector has also become increasingly receptive of reliance on technology and innovation. While the $778 billion annual defense spending budget authorized by the Senate in December remains flat compared to the prior year’s after adjusting for inflation, funding allocated towards R&amp;D and procurement of emerging technologies like AI systems have increased by more than $3 billion. The Pentagon has also welcomed the development and utilization of innovative technologies in defense and combat in recent years, as they work on breaking the high barriers of entry that the giant defense contractors have historically built. In 2020, the agency allocated $1.5 billion in direct funding to more than 1,600 software-as-a-service start-ups, and set aside a number of defense contracts valued at up to $3 million each for early-stage software providers. Frontline healthcare workers in the U.S. have also indicated technology as one of the top three items that can “help reduce their stress and become more effective”. Specifically, tools that can help “automate tasks, provide remote assistance and help communicate with colleagues” are seen as the most helpful. This signals that a greater market of opportunities from the U.S. government is coming Palantir’s way, underpinning additional multi-year growth in the foreseeable future.</p><p><b>Where Might PLTR Stock be Headed?</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0d650f70bbfb8bc052e908d417257b5a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"229\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>PLTR 12-Month Price Target</span></p><p>Considering Palantir’s growth outlook remains intact for both the near- and longer-term despite mounting macro headwinds, we are maintaining our 12-month price target for the stock at $25.45.

Recall from our discussion in earlier sections that share-based compensation expenses are non-cash in nature, thus from a fundamental perspective, Palantir’s free cash flows continue to reflect the underlying business’ high-growth nature. In short, the company continues to be increasingly self-sufficient with a robust cash runway to fund growth in coming years.</p><p>And from a valuation perspective, the share-based compensation issued today cannot be exercised or sold until they vest, which could still be a few years out. Although many senior executives, including CEO Alex Karp, had offloaded a significant volume of shares last year causing stock price pressures, it was part of a long-term compensation-realization scheme, in which share-based compensation issued at the earlier days of Palantir were nearing expiry in December. As such, we are not expecting similar high-volume sell-offs within the foreseeable future.</p><blockquote>As we mentioned on prior earnings calls, Karp was granted options a decade ago which we set to expire on December 3rd of this year. Specifically, as a report equity yields 60.9 million options that were set to expire this December. The taxes from the exercise of the options are more than $0.5 billion. And so we&#39;ve been selling shares along the way to generate funds to pay those taxes. Of the 16.9 million expiring options, he has now exercised 94% of the total. Of the remaining 6%, roughly half or 1.9 million of them will be sold by the expiration date, the other half exercised and as a result, all the near-term expiring options will be exercised.</blockquote><blockquote>Source:Q3 2021 Earnings Call Transcript</blockquote><p>This is further corroborated by the fact that insider selling activity has since calmed according to recent SEC filings, with only one instance earlier this year by Alex Moore, a Palantir veteran. Similar to other insider share-selling activities observed in the past year, the offloaded shares were done in compliance with Rule 10b5-1, meaning it had been planned in advance and not based on any immediate insider information on the company’s performance. From a fundamental standpoint, the latest share-selling activity also does not imply any adverse impacts to the company’s growth outlook.</p><p>Going forward, we expect share dilutions related to share-based compensation to occur at a much more mild rate, similar to other tech stocks that have very much relied on the non-cash compensation strategy to acquire top talent needed to facilitate growth. And robust fundamental growth in years ahead is expected to compensate for said dilution impacts. Palantir is expected to start realizing nominal profits of $141.1 million by 2025, with further growth towards $1.5 billion by the end of the decade based on our current base case forecast, which is also consistent with anticipated long-term top-line growth that management has guided. The returns are expected to far exceed the anticipated rate of share dilution at 4% per year resulting from the share-based compensation program.</p><p>We also expect share-based compensation expenses to scale back and represent a smaller portion of annual revenues in coming years. Strategically, Palantir’s extension of generous share-based compensation packages for its employees will continue to provide them with an incentive to remain committed to the company’s growth. But to ensure the incentive is useful, it is unlikely that Palantir will do it at the expense of over-diluting the company’s share price over the longer-term. While the current share-based compensation expenses represent a large portion of annual revenues, we expect similar spending will scale back in coming years as the company continues to grow to ensure a balance and alignment of interest between employees and shareholders.</p><p><b>Conclusion</b></p><p>Palantir remains on a robust growth trajectory as global digitization trends in coming years continue to underpin demand for data management and analytics software like Foundry and Gotham. While government contracts, especially those associated with defense, remain Palantir’s priority, the company has made significant progress in strategically capitalizing on growth opportunities from the commercial segment. The resulting fundamental performance is also expected to compensate for any potential share-sale dilutions related to the share-based compensation program over the longer-term. With the stock now trading at a discount of more than 60% from its peak in early 2021 with no material changes to its growth outlook, we consider the recent pullback a reasonable entry point with potential upside momentum to resume going into the upcoming earnings season and as mounting macro headwinds abate.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The current macro backdrop has not made a favourable environment for high-growth segment stocks. The recent release of meeting minutes from the FOMC’s policy meeting in December, paired with increasing consumer price pressures at record-setting levels have triggered hawkish sentiments supporting faster and sooner rate hikes beginning as early as March to curb runaway inflation. The hastened withdrawal of pandemic-era stimulus, coupled with the impending return of rate hikes have caused investors to turn risk averse on high-growth, high-valuation stocks. This is largely due to uncertainties over how the upcoming rate hikes might erode the value of future gains or stall business growth due to rising costs of capital.While the imminent tightening of monetary policy has stoked fear amongst equity investors as they mull on how to price the upcoming rate hike impacts into asset valuations, we believe Palantir will emerge favourably in both the near- and long-term. On one hand, the inflation-resistant nature of Palantir’s business, paired with its high-growth prospects and ability to generate robust cash flows from operations should make it an attractive stock within the near-term amidst mounting macro pressures. Meanwhile, in the longer term, Palantir’s technology will continue to play a critical role in supporting key digital trends like AI, which will soon become a necessity instead of novelty in the data-driven era. On these considerations, we believe Palantir's stock will soon resume its upwardmomentum, with the upcoming earnings report being a potential catalyst to jumpstart its performance.Near-Term Considerations for PalantirIn line with the broader market, Palantir's stock rallied on the first trading session of the year, with intraday gains of as much as 4%. However, the momentum was short-lived and has since been overtaken by an extended market rout triggered by increasingly hawkish narratives from Fed representatives. The rising urgency for faster and sooner rate hikes to combat the hottest inflation in close to four decades has sent market benchmarks like the S&P 500 on a rundown of close to 5%. Meanwhile, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 plunged by more than 8% since the year opened due to souring sentiment for high-growth, high-valuation stocks that have largely outperformed in the past 20 months. Instead, mature tech companies likeDell(NYSE:DELL) and HP(NYSE:HPQ)have been resilient due to their low debt, high cash flow, and stable-growth businesses, which provides a strong hedge against the impending rate hikes.However, Palantir’s upcoming earnings report will likely jumpstart the stock toward a similar trend as the mature tech companies. The company boasts a promising growth outlook built on continued innovation, with high visibility into future cash flows thanks to a robust contracted revenue base. Palantir also operates on a strong balance sheet, which is currently debt-free and boasts a robust cash-on-hand balance of more than $2.3 billion to support continued growth.While the impending rate hikes have put investors at the edge of their seats about potentially stalled growth and development in next-generation tech companies due to rising costs of capital in coming years, the fact that Palantir’s operations are already self-sufficient should not be overlooked. In the first nine months of 2021, Palantir generated more than $240 million in cash from operating activities alone, despite year-to-date net losses of $364 million.

In short, the company continues to be increasingly self-sufficient with a robust cash runway to fund growth in coming years.And from a valuation perspective, the share-based compensation issued today cannot be exercised or sold until they vest, which could still be a few years out. Although many senior executives, including CEO Alex Karp, had offloaded a significant volume of shares last year causing stock price pressures, it was part of a long-term compensation-realization scheme, in which share-based compensation issued at the earlier days of Palantir were nearing expiry in December. As such, we are not expecting similar high-volume sell-offs within the foreseeable future.As we mentioned on prior earnings calls, Karp was granted options a decade ago which we set to expire on December 3rd of this year. Specifically, as a report equity yields 60.9 million options that were set to expire this December. The taxes from the exercise of the options are more than $0.5 billion. And so we've been selling shares along the way to generate funds to pay those taxes. Of the 16.9 million expiring options, he has now exercised 94% of the total. Of the remaining 6%, roughly half or 1.9 million of them will be sold by the expiration date, the other half exercised and as a result, all the near-term expiring options will be exercised.Source:Q3 2021 Earnings Call TranscriptThis is further corroborated by the fact that insider selling activity has since calmed according to recent SEC filings, with only one instance earlier this year by Alex Moore, a Palantir veteran. Similar to other insider share-selling activities observed in the past year, the offloaded shares were done in compliance with Rule 10b5-1, meaning it had been planned in advance and not based on any immediate insider information on the company’s performance. From a fundamental standpoint, the latest share-selling activity also does not imply any adverse impacts to the company’s growth outlook.Going forward, we expect share dilutions related to share-based compensation to occur at a much more mild rate, similar to other tech stocks that have very much relied on the non-cash compensation strategy to acquire top talent needed to facilitate growth. And robust fundamental growth in years ahead is expected to compensate for said dilution impacts. Palantir is expected to start realizing nominal profits of $141.1 million by 2025, with further growth towards $1.5 billion by the end of the decade based on our current base case forecast, which is also consistent with anticipated long-term top-line growth that management has guided. The returns are expected to far exceed the anticipated rate of share dilution at 4% per year resulting from the share-based compensation program.We also expect share-based compensation expenses to scale back and represent a smaller portion of annual revenues in coming years. Strategically, Palantir’s extension of generous share-based compensation packages for its employees will continue to provide them with an incentive to remain committed to the company’s growth. But to ensure the incentive is useful, it is unlikely that Palantir will do it at the expense of over-diluting the company’s share price over the longer-term. While the current share-based compensation expenses represent a large portion of annual revenues, we expect similar spending will scale back in coming years as the company continues to grow to ensure a balance and alignment of interest between employees and shareholders.ConclusionPalantir remains on a robust growth trajectory as global digitization trends in coming years continue to underpin demand for data management and analytics software like Foundry and Gotham. While government contracts, especially those associated with defense, remain Palantir’s priority, the company has made significant progress in strategically capitalizing on growth opportunities from the commercial segment. The resulting fundamental performance is also expected to compensate for any potential share-sale dilutions related to the share-based compensation program over the longer-term. With the stock now trading at a discount of more than 60% from its peak in early 2021 with no material changes to its growth outlook, we consider the recent pullback a reasonable entry point with potential upside momentum to resume going into the upcoming earnings season and as mounting macro headwinds abate.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":64,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9001514243,"gmtCreate":1641272598228,"gmtModify":1676533591750,"author":{"id":"3574484198588936","authorId":"3574484198588936","name":"Eaglewings","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532f4e45cb093f21d9a38905184a4bb9","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574484198588936","authorIdStr":"3574484198588936"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Absolutely.

We believe this is significant as it augurs well for Apple&#39;s ambitions into the metaverse. There&#39;s little doubt that Meta Platforms (FB) and Microsoft(MSFT) are strengthening their lead in the consumer and commercial AR/VR space.According to TrendForce, global AR/VR device shipment is estimated to reach 12.02M units, up 26.4% YoY in 2022. Moreover, the market is estimated to grow rapidly through 2025, reaching 25.76M units at a CAGR of 38.8%. Notably, it expects Meta&#39;s Oculus devices to maintain a 66% consumer market share. But, TrendForce also noted that (edited):</p><blockquote>AR/VR device suppliers may look to expand their user base and increase their market penetration via low-priced yet high-spec devices,<i>while compensating for their reduced hardware profitability through software sales</i>. (TrendForce)</blockquote><p>Software sales indeed. Apple runs the largest mobile ecosystem globally, which dwarfs Google Play&#39;s (GOOG) (GOOGL) revenue. Therefore, we believe the entry of Apple into the metaverse game could significantly raise the company&#39;s monetization opportunities. Theories that Meta Platform has ambitions to displace Apple as the next-gen computing platform abound. However, we have also discussed thatMeta Platforms&#39; eventual metaverse will unlikely be the only virtual world we will ever experience. Instead, the metaverse will likely be a series of interconnected virtual worlds that will be interoperable. So, Apple could still be the critical ecosystem owner as creators build their virtual worlds to be monetized through the App Store, reaching out to Apple&#39;s more than 1B (and growing) installed base.</p><p>TrendForce also added that global VR content revenue is estimated to grow at a rapid 40% CAGR through 2025, reaching $8.3B. The content will be varied but primarily consisting of &#34;gaming/entertainment, videos, and social interactions.&#34; Therefore, Apple can continue to leverage such opportunities through its massive ecosystem. We think these opportunities are so novel that it hasn&#39;t even been written into Apple&#39;s consensus estimates just yet. But, once Apple&#39;s AR/VR devices are launched, we believe that the revenue runway could become even more apparent. However, we must still caution that we are still very early into Apple&#39;s metaverse ambitions. But, we believe that Apple will be a critical player in defining the metaverse through its ecosystem. It won&#39;t be very smart to consider that Apple doesn&#39;t have a clearly-defined metaverse strategy.</p><p><b>So, is AAPL Stock a Buy Now?</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6087fafa5c6ee0f2958f8d29919c3eb5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"384\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>AAPL stock EV/NTM EBIT, and Normalized P/E (NTM) 3Y mean.</span></p><p>If you consider AAPL stock&#39;s relative valuation against its 3Y mean, there&#39;s little doubt that AAPL stock seems expensive.

But, if you already have considerable exposure relative to your portfolio, we think you can wait for a potentially better entry point with some patience.Therefore, we reiterate our Neutral rating on AAPL stock for now.This article was written by JR Research.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":22,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9003897118,"gmtCreate":1640920337470,"gmtModify":1676533555357,"author":{"id":"3574484198588936","authorId":"3574484198588936","name":"Eaglewings","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/532f4e45cb093f21d9a38905184a4bb9","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574484198588936","authorIdStr":"3574484198588936"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nio will soar in due time.
