IBM stock has delivered $27.60/share in dividends to its investors.</p>\n<p>This means IBM stock has delivered a total return of 20% to the “widows and orphans” who hold the stock.</p>\n<p>It also means roughly $24.5 billion in cash flow has flown out the door, uninvested.</p>\n<p>That’s the problem with dividends in our technology age. There’s an old tech saying that if you’re handing out dividends you don’t have anything better to do with the investors’ money.</p>\n<p>Cloud Czars like&nbsp;<b>Facebook</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>FB</u></b>), founded in 2004 and now worth $1 trillion, use cash flow for capital spending instead. This benefits investors more.</p>\n<p>If you’re thinking of buying IBM, you’re hoping this error ends after its managed infrastructure business,Kyndryl, becomes independent late this year.</p>\n<p>You’re hoping the dividend ceases to be an issue.</p>\n<p><b>A Closer Look at IBM Stock</b></p>\n<p>Kyndryl is expected to generate roughly&nbsp;$19 billion&nbsp;in sales per year when it’s spun out, into offices atop a skyscraper&nbsp;next to Grand Central Station. What remains will have roughly $54 billion in revenue and claim leadership in “hybrid cloud.”</p>\n<p>This could be the right time for such a move, as many companies are coming down with cloud “sticker shock.”</p>\n<p>According to analysts at Andreesen Horowitz’s new online publication&nbsp;<i>Future</i>,cloud margins compress over time. Companies that adopt the hybrid cloud model could end up saving $500 billion/year.</p>\n<p>This would be the sweet spot for the new IBM, and the Achilles heel of companies like&nbsp;<b>Amazon.Com</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AMZN</u></b>). Questions of where data is located, called&nbsp;cloud sovereignty, can complicate matters, but IBM thrives on such complexity.</p>\n<p><b>Investors Walk Away</b></p>\n<p>Most investors don’t recognize the opportunities, at least regarding IBM.Hedge funds have been walking away&nbsp;from the stock. Tipranks lists just eight analysts following IBM,only half of whom want you to buy it.</p>\n<p>But there are signs of a turnaround. IBM next reports earnings on July 19. Analysts expect revenue of $18.29 billion and earnings of&nbsp;$2.25/share.</p>\n<p>The March quarter,which beat estimates, saw $1.06/share of net income on revenue of $17.7 billion.</p>\n<p>If IBM can hit its estimates investors could see&nbsp;an historic breakout, according to Alan Farley of&nbsp;<i>FX Empire</i>.</p>\n<p>IBM’s stock price has been falling for years, to as low as $91/share at the height of last year’s pandemic. Investors who bought then have seen a gain of around 52%, but the NASDAQ’s gain has been 108%.</p>\n<p><b>IBM Strategy</b></p>\n<p>IBM’s strategy heading into the spin-off will be based on “industry clouds,” &nbsp;something also being embraced by Cloud Czars&nbsp;<b>Microsoft</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>MSFT</u></b>) and&nbsp;<b>Alphabet</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>GOOGL</u></b>).</p>\n<p>IBM’s hope is that hybrid cloud will become&nbsp;a default corporate IT design, seeking to make internal systems as efficient as cloud.</p>\n<p>While IBM does have its own cloud, it’s miniscule compared with those of the giants. Synergy Research says IBM is now fifthin the global cloud rental market, having been passed by&nbsp;<b>Alibaba Group Holding</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>BABA</u></b>).</p>\n<p>But its relatively small size may not be a hindrance if it’s also dedicated to building out clouds for clients and moving workloads for cost efficiency.</p>\n<p><b>The Bottom Line</b></p>\n<p>If you look up IBM in the news, you won’t see much focus on its hybrid cloud strategy.

IBM stock has delivered $27.60/share in dividends to its investors.\nThis means IBM stock has delivered a total return of 20% to the “widows and orphans” who hold the stock.\nIt also means roughly $24.5 billion in cash flow has flown out the door, uninvested.\nThat’s the problem with dividends in our technology age. There’s an old tech saying that if you’re handing out dividends you don’t have anything better to do with the investors’ money.\nCloud Czars like Facebook(NASDAQ:FB), founded in 2004 and now worth $1 trillion, use cash flow for capital spending instead. This benefits investors more.\nIf you’re thinking of buying IBM, you’re hoping this error ends after its managed infrastructure business,Kyndryl, becomes independent late this year.\nYou’re hoping the dividend ceases to be an issue.\nA Closer Look at IBM Stock\nKyndryl is expected to generate roughly $19 billion in sales per year when it’s spun out, into offices atop a skyscraper next to Grand Central Station. What remains will have roughly $54 billion in revenue and claim leadership in “hybrid cloud.”\nThis could be the right time for such a move, as many companies are coming down with cloud “sticker shock.”\nAccording to analysts at Andreesen Horowitz’s new online publication Future,cloud margins compress over time. Companies that adopt the hybrid cloud model could end up saving $500 billion/year.\nThis would be the sweet spot for the new IBM, and the Achilles heel of companies like Amazon.Com(NASDAQ:AMZN). Questions of where data is located, called cloud sovereignty, can complicate matters, but IBM thrives on such complexity.\nInvestors Walk Away\nMost investors don’t recognize the opportunities, at least regarding IBM.Hedge funds have been walking away from the stock. Tipranks lists just eight analysts following IBM,only half of whom want you to buy it.\nBut there are signs of a turnaround. IBM next reports earnings on July 19. Analysts expect revenue of $18.29 billion and earnings of $2.25/share.\nThe March quarter,which beat estimates, saw $1.06/share of net income on revenue of $17.7 billion.\nIf IBM can hit its estimates investors could see an historic breakout, according to Alan Farley of FX Empire.\nIBM’s stock price has been falling for years, to as low as $91/share at the height of last year’s pandemic. Investors who bought then have seen a gain of around 52%, but the NASDAQ’s gain has been 108%.\nIBM Strategy\nIBM’s strategy heading into the spin-off will be based on “industry clouds,”  something also being embraced by Cloud Czars Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT) and Alphabet(NASDAQ:GOOGL).\nIBM’s hope is that hybrid cloud will become a default corporate IT design, seeking to make internal systems as efficient as cloud.\nWhile IBM does have its own cloud, it’s miniscule compared with those of the giants. Synergy Research says IBM is now fifthin the global cloud rental market, having been passed by Alibaba Group Holding(NASDAQ:BABA).\nBut its relatively small size may not be a hindrance if it’s also dedicated to building out clouds for clients and moving workloads for cost efficiency.\nThe Bottom Line\nIf you look up IBM in the news, you won’t see much focus on its hybrid cloud strategy. Instead you might read about storage systems, aboutquantum computers, about government contracts ordisputes with its old chip foundry.\nBut don’t be fooled. IBM now has a strategy, to off-load the dividend, and focus on hybrid cloud. If it works, and it might, it could be “IBM to the Moon.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":418,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":150989314,"gmtCreate":1624882253438,"gmtModify":1703846908899,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Next meme stock perhaps","listText":"Next meme stock perhaps","text":"Next meme stock perhaps","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/150989314","repostId":"1131916495","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1131916495","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624872448,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1131916495?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-28 17:27","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore’s Carousell Explores U.S. Listing Via SPAC","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1131916495","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Deal could value marketplace operator at up to $1.5 billion\nCarousell is working with an adviser on ","content":"<ul>\n <li>Deal could value marketplace operator at up to $1.5 billion</li>\n <li>Carousell is working with an adviser on the potential deal</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b3ed3ec36d0106679258e3eb726ae737\" tg-width=\"1999\" tg-height=\"1333\"><span>The Carousell Pte application on a smartphone.

Priced at $149,990, it was to feature a range of 520 miles, thanks to its innovative 4680 battery cells, 1,100 horsepower and the ability to speed from 0 to 60 mph in less than two seconds.</p>\n<p>Instead, the company has begun delivering a new Model S Plaid that has only a 390-mile range and 1,020 horsepower, though it still sprints to from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just two seconds.</p>\n<p>As a way to “sugar coat” its flip flop, Tesla said the Model S Plaid is just as fast as the Model S Plaid Plus and $20,000 cheaper. Humm.</p>\n<p>This “bait and switch” has some Tesla fans worried, since they had deposits on the Model S Plaid Plus and wanted the innovative 4680 battery cells that Tesla had been touting as the key to longer range and more power. Essentially, the 4680 battery cells were the latest great Tesla development, since they were the first batteries to also be a structural component that supposedly allowed Tesla to lower the weight of its vehicles.</p>\n<p>Both the company’s Austin and Berlin manufacturing plants now under construction are supposed to also be making the 4680 batteries for new Tesla vehicles. If there is a problem with the engineering associated with utilizing the 4680 batteries or making them a structural component, then Tesla has grossly miscalculated, which is now worrying investors.</p>\n<p>Clearly something happened to delay the 4680 batteries that were supposed to provide Tesla with a competitive and engineering edge. For Tesla’s sake, I hope they figure out the problems associated with their much hyped 4680 battery cells, otherwise concerns about its two new manufacturing plants will emerge, as well as the stock losing more of its “mojo.”</p>\n<p>As someone who owns more than a few high-performance vehicles, I can tell you that the engineering geeks I know do<i>not</i>want to get a new Model S Plaid instead of a Model S Plaid Plus and will likely ask for their deposits back.</p>\n<p>What Tesla did is like Ferrari or Porsche telling its customers that one of their much-hyped new performance models is now not being sold because the base model was just as good! Car fanatics, like myself, like the latest and greatest engineering tidbits, so we would rather cancel our orders versus settle for a base model.</p>\n<p>The good news for Tesla is that its China sales in May resurged to 21,936, up sharply from 11,671 in April. The company’s sales tend to spike at the end of each quarter. For example, Tesla sold 35,478 vehicles in China in March, which was the strongest month ever in China.</p>\n<p>This is raising expectations for very strong China sales in June, especially now that the Model Y is being manufactured in Shanghai. Interestingly, since most Chinese Teslas are now made with iron phosphate batteries, these vehicles have lower range than its lithium cobalt vehicles, but its iron phosphate vehicles are cheaper and now increasingly being exported to Europe.</p>\n<p>However, I’m convinced another electric vehicle (EV) company will eventually displace Tesla as the biggest manufacturer of EVs in China.</p>\n<p><b>Taking Advantage of the EV Revolution’s Profit Potential</b></p>\n<p>I’m talking about&nbsp;<b>Nio, Inc.</b>(NYSE:<b>NIO</b>). The reality is that this company is on the verge of dominating the EV market in China and Hong Kong. It’s why I put NIO on my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio back in February.</p>\n<p>The company boasts that it is the “next-generation car company,” as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles that utilize the latest technologies in connectivity, autonomous driving and artificial intelligence (AI). NIO currently offers an electric seven-seater SUV (ES8) and a five-seater electric SUV (ES6) and recently introduced an attractive electric sedan (ET7). Its vehicles utilize NOMI, an in-vehicle artificial intelligence assistant.</p>\n<p>The company is also partnering with cutting-edge chip companies like<b>NVIDIA Corporation</b>(NASDAQ:<b>NVDA</b>), another one of my<b><i>Platinum Growth Club</i></b>Model Portfolio stocks. NIO plans to use the NVIDIA DRIVE Orin system-on-a-chip for its electric vehicles that will provide autonomous driving capabilities. The NVIDIA DRIVE Orin-powered supercomputer, which is being called Adam, will be launched in the ET7 sedan in China in 2022. Announcements like this are very positive, so NIO has been stealing some of Tesla’s thunder lately.</p>\n<p>Now, it’s important to note that NIO was bailed out by the Chinese government. Last year, the Chinese government injected $1 billion and now has a 24% ownership in the company. The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.</p>\n<p>With the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.</p>\n<p>That means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.</p>\n<p>Shares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%.

Priced at $149,990, it was to feature a range of 520 miles, thanks to its innovative 4680 battery cells, 1,100 horsepower and the ability to speed from 0 to 60 mph in less than two seconds.\nInstead, the company has begun delivering a new Model S Plaid that has only a 390-mile range and 1,020 horsepower, though it still sprints to from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just two seconds.\nAs a way to “sugar coat” its flip flop, Tesla said the Model S Plaid is just as fast as the Model S Plaid Plus and $20,000 cheaper. Humm.\nThis “bait and switch” has some Tesla fans worried, since they had deposits on the Model S Plaid Plus and wanted the innovative 4680 battery cells that Tesla had been touting as the key to longer range and more power. Essentially, the 4680 battery cells were the latest great Tesla development, since they were the first batteries to also be a structural component that supposedly allowed Tesla to lower the weight of its vehicles.\nBoth the company’s Austin and Berlin manufacturing plants now under construction are supposed to also be making the 4680 batteries for new Tesla vehicles. If there is a problem with the engineering associated with utilizing the 4680 batteries or making them a structural component, then Tesla has grossly miscalculated, which is now worrying investors.\nClearly something happened to delay the 4680 batteries that were supposed to provide Tesla with a competitive and engineering edge. For Tesla’s sake, I hope they figure out the problems associated with their much hyped 4680 battery cells, otherwise concerns about its two new manufacturing plants will emerge, as well as the stock losing more of its “mojo.”\nAs someone who owns more than a few high-performance vehicles, I can tell you that the engineering geeks I know donotwant to get a new Model S Plaid instead of a Model S Plaid Plus and will likely ask for their deposits back.\nWhat Tesla did is like Ferrari or Porsche telling its customers that one of their much-hyped new performance models is now not being sold because the base model was just as good! Car fanatics, like myself, like the latest and greatest engineering tidbits, so we would rather cancel our orders versus settle for a base model.\nThe good news for Tesla is that its China sales in May resurged to 21,936, up sharply from 11,671 in April. The company’s sales tend to spike at the end of each quarter. For example, Tesla sold 35,478 vehicles in China in March, which was the strongest month ever in China.\nThis is raising expectations for very strong China sales in June, especially now that the Model Y is being manufactured in Shanghai. Interestingly, since most Chinese Teslas are now made with iron phosphate batteries, these vehicles have lower range than its lithium cobalt vehicles, but its iron phosphate vehicles are cheaper and now increasingly being exported to Europe.\nHowever, I’m convinced another electric vehicle (EV) company will eventually displace Tesla as the biggest manufacturer of EVs in China.\nTaking Advantage of the EV Revolution’s Profit Potential\nI’m talking about Nio, Inc.(NYSE:NIO). The reality is that this company is on the verge of dominating the EV market in China and Hong Kong. It’s why I put NIO on myPlatinum Growth ClubModel Portfolio back in February.\nThe company boasts that it is the “next-generation car company,” as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles that utilize the latest technologies in connectivity, autonomous driving and artificial intelligence (AI). NIO currently offers an electric seven-seater SUV (ES8) and a five-seater electric SUV (ES6) and recently introduced an attractive electric sedan (ET7). Its vehicles utilize NOMI, an in-vehicle artificial intelligence assistant.\nThe company is also partnering with cutting-edge chip companies likeNVIDIA Corporation(NASDAQ:NVDA), another one of myPlatinum Growth ClubModel Portfolio stocks. NIO plans to use the NVIDIA DRIVE Orin system-on-a-chip for its electric vehicles that will provide autonomous driving capabilities. The NVIDIA DRIVE Orin-powered supercomputer, which is being called Adam, will be launched in the ET7 sedan in China in 2022. Announcements like this are very positive, so NIO has been stealing some of Tesla’s thunder lately.\nNow, it’s important to note that NIO was bailed out by the Chinese government. Last year, the Chinese government injected $1 billion and now has a 24% ownership in the company. The reality is that China wants to dominate at least five major industries by 2025, and NIO is now its ticket to dominate EV manufacturing.\nWith the backing of the Chinese government, some Wall Street firms are eager to help NIO by issuing new debt or equity. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if NIO surpasses Tesla, which is currently number-two in China, for market share in the upcoming years.\nThat means, if you missed Tesla’s parabolic run like I did, NIO is essentially giving us a “second chance” to make money in a potentially explosive electric vehicle company.\nShares of NIO climbed nearly 13% since the company’s June 4 announcement of its May delivery report and positive analyst comments, while Tesla shares rose almost 3%. First, NIO revealed that the global chip shortage is starting to take a toll on its business. NIO only delivered 6,711 vehicles in May, or a 5.5% decline from April’s deliveries. Company management noted that deliveries were “adversely impacted for several days due to the volatility of semiconductor supply and certain logistical adjustments.”\nInterestingly, despite the month-to-month dip, NIO’s deliveries were still up 95.3% year-over-year. Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.\nIn other words, NIO represents thecrème de la crèmeof EV stocks right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":680,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":117088370,"gmtCreate":1623110147690,"gmtModify":1704196134968,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice... gogogo Apple","listText":"Nice... gogogo Apple","text":"Nice... gogogo Apple","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/117088370","repostId":"1187003503","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1187003503","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623088169,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1187003503?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-08 01:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple announces iOS 15 for iPhones with lots of new social features","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1187003503","media":"cnbc","summary":"Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference  is the company's annual showcase for its software.

Apple reveals the latest version of iOS, its iPhone software, and updates to the software that runs on Apple TV, iPads, Apple Watch and Macs, in an effort to lure the best developers to sink time and investment into building software for Apple's computers.The bigger question is whether Apple will announce new hardware products. Often, it saves its best launches for the fall, around when new iPhones come out. This year, it released new Mac computers and iPads in the spring. But, sometimes it reveals new computers that run on the latest software. This year, some rumors have suggested it may introduce new MacBook Pro laptops and possibly an update to the AirPods headphones.We'll have everything Apple announces in the live blog below.The event begins at 1 p.m. Eastern.Is the iPad a computer yet?I can’t tell you how many WWDCs I’ve sat through where Apple claimed it’s beefed up the multitasking capabilities of the iPad in order to make it function more like a regular laptop.And Apple did it again today. (See Kif’s early blog entry for more details.)But none of those updates matter if app developers don’t take advantage of these features. Historically, it’s been difficult for Apple to convince developers to take the iPad seriously as a computer replacement, which is why the tablets are still mostly used for consumption, not creation.It’s way better than it used to be. (In fact, I use my iPad more than I use my MacBook these days.) But there’s still a long way to go for the iPad to catch up to the MacBook.There’s an easier solution though: Just put a touchscreen on the MacBook. Please.--Steve KovachApple announces new iPad software called iPadOS 15 that lets you do more at onceiPadOS Source: AppleApple announced new iPad software called iPadOS 15.IPadOS 15 includes new ways to rearrange iPad apps, put widgets on the home screen and the App Library feature, formerly iPhone exclusive, that automatically organizes apps.Apple also introduced a new multitasking interface that makes it easier to put two apps side by side on the iPad screen.The Apple notes app has been updated to better interface with other apps. One feature, called Quick Notes, lets users jot notes using the Apple Pencil, a stylus.A new version of the Translate app for iPads allows users to speak and have the discussion translated on-screen in real time.Apple’s app for learning how to code, Swift Playgrounds, can now build full apps, which can be submitted to the App Store Apple said.— Kif LeswingApple’s AirPods headphones can now be used to improve hearingA new feature coming to AirPods called “Conversation Boost” helps people better understand who they’re talking to in real time in a busy environment. Users can also adjust ambient background noise levels to help improve audio. Siri will also soon read important notifications, if you want it to, instead of just incoming calls and messages. — Kif LeswingApple Maps gets big new update with more city details and 3D modelsApple is updating its maps software with new 3D data. It now includes turning lanes and other road conditions. It is expanding to Spain, Portugal, Italy and Australia later this year, Apple said.— Kif LeswingIf you thought Facebook was angry with Apple before today...The slew of new communication features Apple announced for iOS 15 on Monday are sure to have Mark Zuckerberg’s blood boiling over atFacebookheadquarters.In effect, these new features build a closed-off social network for Apple, letting you share Apple News stories, Apple Music tracks and even hold FaceTime video chats with non-iPhone users.Zuckerberg has already said he considers Apple a major competitor because of iMessage. Now Apple is building out even more social features natively into iOS. And, of course, Apple will be able to promote the privacy of these social features, unlike Facebook.--Steve KovachApple announces iOS 15, newest version of iPhone’s softwareApple’s senior vice president in charge of software, Craig Federighi, announced iOS 15, the latest version of the iPhone operating system. This software typically releases for most users alongside new iPhones in the fall, but developers and early adopters can start using it earlier, typically during the summer.iOS 15 includes:FaceTime improvements, including 3D audio, portrait mode to blur backgrounds, and a grid view to speak to multiple people at the same time. Apple will also allow users to send links to schedule individual FaceTime calls, like Zoom links. Users can also share their screens or music, through a new software feature called ShareTime.FaceTime calls are also now supported on Windows and Android through a browser, the first time that FaceTime has been supported across platforms.An iMessage redesign, which includes features that turns messaged photos into galleries.A new feature called “shared with you” saves links that people sent you and puts them in one place so users can address them later. It works with Apple Music, Safari, Apple Podcasts, Apple TV and Apple News. Users can pin important messages featuring content.Redesigned notifications, including a feature that collects users notifications into a custom summary of all the notifications the user may have missed. The notifications are ordered by priority, and notifications by people will not be included so they won’t be missed.Users who have turned on “do not disturb” or a new “focus” mode will have their status shared with other users, like an away message.Focus mode can hide any apps that you don’t want to distract you.Camera improvements, including a feature called Live Text that can automatically identify and scan text in photographs.Apple’s machine learning will also be able to identify elements in photos, such as location or whether there’s a pet in the scene. Apple’s system search, Spotlight, will search these elements.A feature called Memories will use machine learning to combine photos into relevant galleries or animations and sometimes add music from Apple Music.Apple is also updating expanding the Wallet app functionality to include corporate badges as well as keys to get into hotels and houses with smart homes.Apple is also going to support scanning U.S. IDs, such as drivers licenses, into their wallet. Apple says it is only supported in some states for now, and the TSA will accept the credential.Apple CEO Tim Cook kicks off WWDCAfter a short comedy video focusing on software developers, Apple CEO Tim Cook has kicked off the show from the company’s headquarters in Cupertino, California. He came out on stage to a virtual crowd of avatars.— Kif LeswingFacebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg needles Apple ahead of its conferenceFacebook CEOMark Zuckerberg needled Applehours before its WWDC conference was scheduled to kick off.In a short poston his Facebook page, Zuckerberg announced a new Facebook feature enabling users to tip social media personalities. He said Facebook isn’t charging until at least 2023, and when it does, it will take less than the 30% fee Apple charges iPhone apps using in-app purchases.“To help more creators make a living on our platforms, we’re going to keep paid online events, fan subscriptions, badges, and our upcoming independent news products free for creators until 2023. And when we do introduce a revenue share, it will be less than the 30% that Apple and others take,” Zuckerberg wrote.Apple’s developer conference this year takes place at an uncertain time in Apple developer relations. Apple needs computer software companies to make apps for its platforms, which in turn makes its products more attractive to users.WWDC is aimed at getting those software makers excited about Apple. But Epic Games, Facebook and other firms have complained that Apple’s App Store rules are too stringent and its 30% fee for digital purchases is too high.— Kif LeswingApple’s web store remains onlineApple has historically taken down its online store for a few hours during a big launch, signaling exciting new products being added and building hype. But on Monday, the store was still up 15 minutes before WWDC was scheduled to kick off, suggesting no new major products.— Kif LeswingApple should bring Mac features to iPads todayI hope to see Apple bring some of the software features from MacBooks to iPads today.Thelatest MacsandiPad Pros run on the same M1 processor, so there’s enough power on the high-end iPads for running apps in multiple windows, like you would on a traditional computer, and support for using an external display for any app.A report fromBloombergover the weekend suggested we’ll at least see improvements to iPad multitasking, so it seems like my wish is at least plausible.Apple has so far said it sees iPads and Macs as totally different devices with different use cases, so I don’t expect a complete merge of the operating systems.-- Todd HaseltonThe Apple-developer love fest is overIn normal times, WWDC is a love fest between Apple and the developers who keep itsmassively profitable App Store chugging along.But this year is going to be different. The disputes over App Store fees between Apple and big-name developers likeSpotifyhave spilled into the public view in recent months. That’s especially apparent with thelegal battle between Apple and Epic Games. The two companies went through a three-week trial last month, and the judge’s decision in the case could alter the power dynamics between Apple and app developers.In the past, developers remained quiet about their complaints with Apple’s App Store rules, lest they draw the ire of Tim Cook and company and risk their access to the App Store. But thanks to groups like theCoalition for App Fairnessand the overall anti-Big Tech sentiment in Western governments, developers now feel emboldened to make their complaints known.I’m most interested to see how Apple uses this year’s WWDC to highlight the benefits it can offer developers while still protecting one of its massive profit centers, the App Store.-- Steve Kovach","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":587,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3576820982022251","authorId":"3576820982022251","name":"Shindokai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/548d3e56658ca7df99ec4ad0e0b65d4d","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3576820982022251","authorIdStr":"3576820982022251"},"content":"Hope it wont have more issues thAn ios 14.6","text":"Hope it wont have more issues thAn ios 14.6","html":"Hope it wont have more issues thAn ios 14.6"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":119536327,"gmtCreate":1622554530469,"gmtModify":1704186197760,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"All the way tiger roar on!!!","listText":"All the way tiger roar on!!!","text":"All the way tiger roar on!!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/119536327","repostId":"1102282264","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102282264","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1622547304,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1102282264?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-01 19:35","market":"us","language":"en","title":"China’s Robinhood rivals pile into the crypto craze as they look to compete overseas","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102282264","media":"CNBC","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nTwo of China’s rivals to stock trading app Robinhood are looking to cryptocurrencies as ","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nTwo of China’s rivals to stock trading app Robinhood are looking to cryptocurrencies as a way to compete overseas.\nFutu and Tiger Brokers said this month they are applying for licenses in ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/01/chinas-robinhood-rivals-pile-into-the-crypto-craze.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

In the last few weeks, authorities issued new warnings against digital currency trading and a crackdown on bitcoin mining— an energy-heavy computing process that allows participants to earn bitcoin.\nBut in the financial trading world, demand for cryptocurrencies is high as bitcoin’s price surged to record levels above $60,000, before dropping sharply to around $35,000.\nRobinhood, which launched bitcoin and ethereum trading in the U.S. in early 2018, has added 3 million customers a month this year for its crypto business. In April, U.S.-based cryptocurrency trading site Coinbase debuted on the Nasdaq.\n“We do hear a lot of interest from our users across the world in terms of crypto. We have listened to that,” Arthur Chen, Futu’s chief financial officer, told CNBC last week. He said the company hopes to offer cryptocurrency-related products as soon as the end of this year.\nBoth Futu and Tiger Brokers got their start primarily from Chinese employees of major tech companies like Alibaba and Baidu. Since these companies are listed in the U.S., that piqued their employees’ interest in trading stocks abroad.\nHowever, both companies are increasingly focused on markets outside mainland China. In addition to essentially banning yuan-bitcoin transactions, Beijing tightly controls capital flows out of the mainland.\nFutu has gained 100,000 paying clients in Singapore less than three months since launching there in early March, Chen said. He said about one-fourth of new paying clients in the first quarter came from Singapore and the U.S.\nIn the international retail trading market, the two companies face competition not just from Robinhood but traditional players such as Interactive Brokers. Both Futu and Tiger seek to attract customers with an in-app social network where users can swap trading ideas and watch investor education courses.\nBy the end of March, Futu said it had 789,652 customers with assets in their trading accounts, more than three times that of a year ago.\nTiger said the number of customers with deposits more than doubled in the first quarter from a year ago to 376,000.\nCooling interest in IPOs\nCustomers are very interested in cryptocurrencies and Coinbase’s stock listing attracted new users, Tiger Brokers’ CEO Tianhua Wu told CNBC last week.\nBut he said users’ overall interest in initial public offerings has cooled off from last year. While exuberance over IPOs then might have generated $1 billion or more worth of orders around a listing, now the offerings are drawing far less in terms of orders, Wu said.\nLast week, both Futu and Tiger Brokers were added to MSCI stock indexes, which are tracked by trillions of global investment dollars.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":713,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":197342460,"gmtCreate":1621431103850,"gmtModify":1704357514397,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Let see how this goes","listText":"Let see how this goes","text":"Let see how this goes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/197342460","repostId":"1176038182","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1176038182","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1621429621,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1176038182?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-19 21:07","market":"us","language":"en","title":"One area of success investors may overlook when it comes to Palantir stock","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1176038182","media":"CNBC","summary":"Palantir may have fallen victim to the high-growth tech sell-off, but TradingAnalysis.com founder To","content":"<div>\n<p>Palantir may have fallen victim to the high-growth tech sell-off, but TradingAnalysis.com founder Todd Gordon sees an opportunity to add to his position.\nThe software-as-a-service stock is down 10% ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/05/19/palantir-stock-trader-lays-out-bullish-case-for-software-company.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Medical suppliers used the Palantir software to monitor global supply chains and then they helped to measure shortages and imbalances of supplies and proactively move those supplies around to meet the demand,” Gordon told CNBC’s “Trading Nation” on Tuesday, specifically pointing to the success of vaccine rollouts in the U.S. and U.K.\nPalantir generates the bulk of its revenue through government contracts. Its government segment makes up nearly 56% of total sales with commercial as the remainder.\nRecent positions from some of Wall Street’s most notable players also support Gordon’s bull case. Stanley Druckenmiller’s Duquesne Family Office recently disclosed a new stake of nearly 6 million shares of Palantir, while Cathy Wood’s ARK Invest also holds a position.\nIts technical position also looks set up for a push higher, Gordon said.\n“Technically speaking here, you can see there’s been a pretty unbelievable run ever since they came to the market, rallied all the way up to $44, and then what you see here is a pretty common three-wave technical correction,” he said.\n\nThe triangle formed by that middle wave of the correction suggests to Gordon that the stock could break out to the upside.\nTo take advantage of that move, Gordon lays out one potential trade – putting on a 25/30 calldeb it spread with Aug. 20 expiration. A move up to $30, the higher end of that spread, implies more than 40% upside from its Tuesday close above $21.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":839,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":192173647,"gmtCreate":1621170081889,"gmtModify":1704353574828,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Would it be bloodshed on monday?","listText":"Would it be bloodshed on monday?","text":"Would it be bloodshed on monday?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/192173647","repostId":"1115487503","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":646,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":196914425,"gmtCreate":1621004602667,"gmtModify":1704351891549,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Will buy $dis if it drop to $160 today","listText":"Will buy $dis if it drop to $160 today","text":"Will buy $dis if it drop to $160 today","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/196914425","repostId":"1173244066","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1173244066","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1621004086,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1173244066?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-14 22:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What Disney, Airbnb and DoorDash results reveal about the post-pandemic economy","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1173244066","media":"CNN","summary":"London (CNN Business)Companies are gearing up for an era in which Covid-19 isn't the primary driver ","content":"<p>London (CNN Business)Companies are gearing up for an era in which Covid-19 isn't the primary driver of how people spend their money.</p>\n<p>The big question: As the coronavirus situation improves in countries like the United States, which trends from the past 14 months will have staying power, and which will be resigned to the pandemic past?</p>\n<p>Airbnb, DoorDash and Disney (DIS), which reported results after US markets closed on Thursday, provide some idea.</p>\n<p>Airbnb: The company said interest in travel is surging again as vaccines become more widely available, pointing to a sharp increase in bookings in the United Kingdom immediately after British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced plans in February to gradually exit lockdown. For US customers aged 60 and above, searches on Airbnb for summer travel rose by more than 60% between February and March.</p>\n<p>The company is also ready for more customers to use Airbnb for longer-term stays as they take advantage of greater acceptance of remote work. It said that nearly a quarter of stays last quarter were for 28 days or more, up 14% from 2019. Shares are down slightly in premarket trading.</p>\n<p>DoorDash: People are still ordering lots of food delivery even as restaurants open back up for traditional dining. DoorDash reported a 198% jump in revenue last quarter to $1.1 billion even as it dealt with a shortage of workers, and increased its full-year outlook.</p>\n<p>\"As markets continued reopening and in-store dining increased across the US, the impact to our order volume was smaller than we expected, which contributed to strong performance in the quarter,\" the company said, though it cautioned that may have been partially attributable to stimulus checks. Shares are up almost 9% in premarket trading.</p>\n<p>Disney: Streaming has carried Disney through the pandemic, with Disney+ growing to more than 100 million subscribers. Yet the biggest star in Disney's media universe appears to be shining a little less bright, sending shares down 4%.</p>\n<p>The company said Thursday that Disney+ now has 103.6 million subscribers, below the 110 million Wall Street was expecting. That's forced investors to wonder: Is that because people are getting vaccinated and stepping away from streaming? Netflix also reported sluggish subscription growth last quarter.</p>\n<p>Down but not out: Disney said it remains on track to reach its long-term subscriber goals despite the apparent slowdown. It's betting that as the pandemic eases, it will be able to produce more movies and shows, helping to bring in new customers.</p>\n<p>Whether it's right will become clearer in the months ahead, which will pose the true test of whether people actually ditch their sweatpants, get out of the house and shake up the economy once again.</p>\n<p><b>It could get easier to get a credit card without a credit score</b></p>\n<p>For years, if you didn't have a credit score it was extremely difficult to get a credit card or certain types of loans.

For US customers aged 60 and above, searches on Airbnb for summer travel rose by more than 60% between February and March.\nThe company is also ready for more customers to use Airbnb for longer-term stays as they take advantage of greater acceptance of remote work. It said that nearly a quarter of stays last quarter were for 28 days or more, up 14% from 2019. Shares are down slightly in premarket trading.\nDoorDash: People are still ordering lots of food delivery even as restaurants open back up for traditional dining. DoorDash reported a 198% jump in revenue last quarter to $1.1 billion even as it dealt with a shortage of workers, and increased its full-year outlook.\n\"As markets continued reopening and in-store dining increased across the US, the impact to our order volume was smaller than we expected, which contributed to strong performance in the quarter,\" the company said, though it cautioned that may have been partially attributable to stimulus checks. Shares are up almost 9% in premarket trading.\nDisney: Streaming has carried Disney through the pandemic, with Disney+ growing to more than 100 million subscribers. Yet the biggest star in Disney's media universe appears to be shining a little less bright, sending shares down 4%.\nThe company said Thursday that Disney+ now has 103.6 million subscribers, below the 110 million Wall Street was expecting. That's forced investors to wonder: Is that because people are getting vaccinated and stepping away from streaming? Netflix also reported sluggish subscription growth last quarter.\nDown but not out: Disney said it remains on track to reach its long-term subscriber goals despite the apparent slowdown. It's betting that as the pandemic eases, it will be able to produce more movies and shows, helping to bring in new customers.\nWhether it's right will become clearer in the months ahead, which will pose the true test of whether people actually ditch their sweatpants, get out of the house and shake up the economy once again.\nIt could get easier to get a credit card without a credit score\nFor years, if you didn't have a credit score it was extremely difficult to get a credit card or certain types of loans. But a new plan among some of the nation's largest banks may help Americans without traditional credit histories get approved.\nTen banks — including JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Wells Fargo (WFC) and U.S. Bancorp (USB) — have tentatively agreed to a plan to share data like bank account deposits and bill payment activity to help qualify borrowers without traditional credit histories, according to the Wall Street Journal.\nThe push for financial institutions to come to a data sharing agreement came from a program run by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The OCC has confirmed there is a plan, but the details of the agreement among the banks still need to be worked out.\nShould the proposed arrangement go through, it would mean that if you don't have a credit score but you have a bank account at Wells Fargo, for example, you can use that financial history to help you get a credit card with another bank, like JPMorgan Chase.\n\"This will give millions of Americans the opportunity to access credit that's essential to building wealth — buying a home, starting a business, or financing education,\" Trish Wexler, a spokesperson for JPMorgan Chase, told CNN Business.\nThe backstory: There are currently 53 million people without a credit score, according to the Fair Isaac Corporation, the creator of FICO credit scores. These consumers, who are disproportionately lower income and people of color, face higher borrowing costs because they're forced to turn to products like payday loans.\nBanks and lenders refer to those without credit history as \"credit invisible.\" This group can include young people or recent immigrants, as well as people who haven't used credit in a long time or who have lost their access due to financial difficulties.\nThe business angle: Big banks may also be eager to revise their policies as online upstarts chip away at demand for their products.\n\"Some of this cooperation among the biggest banks may be a bit of reaction to smaller banks and fintech companies infringing on their space,\" said Matt Schulz, chief industry analyst at LendingTree.\nTarget will temporarily stop selling trading cards amid frenzy\nTarget (TGT) has announced that it will stop selling trading cards in its stores following a violent dispute at one of its locations — a sign of just how overheated the market for collectibles has become.\nThe details: Last week, a Target in Wisconsin was locked down after a man was physically assaulted by four others over sports trading cards.\n\"The safety of our guests and our team is our top priority,\" Target said in a statement. \"Out of an abundance of caution, we've decided to temporarily suspend the sale of MLB, NFL, NBA and Pokémon trading cards within our stores, effective [Friday].\"\nThe cards will still be available online, the company said.\nRemember: The value of trading cards has skyrocketed in recent months during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Investors aren’t often keen to hear that a company might approach a $300 million annual loss on a pro-rata basis. However, there is a silver lining here.\nNio’s net loss decreased 67.5% from the previous quarter, and 73.3% compared to Q1 ‘20.\nTakeaway\nNio faces competition at home and abroad. Markets are pricing this into its shares.\nIt seems evident to me that Nio stock has little reason to rise immediately. I’d expect it to trade sideways until a clearer-cut winner emerges in China.\nLong term I think it will still emerge as a dominant force, it’s just that now the picture is too murky.\nOn the date of publication, Alex Sirois did not have (either directly or indirectly) any positions in the securities mentioned in this article.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":339,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":193994603,"gmtCreate":1620743730202,"gmtModify":1704347760522,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"just added even more position on the dip","listText":"just added even more position on the dip","text":"just added even more position on the dip","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/193994603","repostId":"1153941496","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":360,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":104858658,"gmtCreate":1620377363674,"gmtModify":1704342793122,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Diversification may be good","listText":"Diversification may be good","text":"Diversification may be good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/104858658","repostId":"2133520488","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2133520488","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1620357500,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2133520488?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-07 11:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Forget Dogecoin: These Stocks Are Infinitely Smarter Buys","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2133520488","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"With the Dogecoin bull thesis easily debunked, this trio of high-growth companies is a better way to put your money to work.","content":"<p>For more than a century, the stock market has been the undisputed greatest wealth creator on the planet.

Interestingly, cloud gaming doesn’t require users to purchase expensive personal computers or hardware for gaming. This is because the games run online or on remote servers and users can access them easily without having to go through the hassle of downloading and installing them on their devices.</p><p>Users can simply purchase gaming subscriptions or access free-to-play titles on compatible devices like desktops, smartphones, tablets, and so on. Moreover, cloud gaming allows users to play games that they might own on other gaming consoles.</p><p>Markedly, the rising penetration of Internet across the globe has been instrumental in increasing the popularity of cloud gaming. After all, a stable Internet connection is a basic requirement for cloud gaming. Moreover, the increasing availability of 5G services around the world is sure to provide another leg up to cloud gaming. This is because 5G offers low latency and faster speeds, which means that buffering in games will be lowered, thereby improving the overall experience.</p><p>In any case, the popularity of cloud gaming had been gradually gaining ground, but the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic last year helped in catapulting that demand. Being stuck at home, people needed some form of entertainment which led to video games taking center stage. This, in turn, resulted in rising interest in cloud gaming, especially in countries like the United States. In fact, asurveyby Piplsay last year showed that 52% of U.S. gamers took an interest in cloud gaming in 2020, amid the lockdown while 44% of U.S. gamers responded that they subscribed to a game streaming service.</p><p>Cloud Gaming Boom to Continue in 2021</p><p>While major economies around the world are gradually returning to normalcy owing to an accelerated vaccination drive, the popularity of cloud gaming looks set to continue. Markedly, gaming market analytics provider Newzoo estimated that the cloud gaming market is set toreach $1.4 billionin revenues in 2021 compared to $633 million in 2020. Moreover, the report stated that by 2023, the cloud gaming market is set to exceed the five-billion-dollar revenue mark, on the back of improving technology and infrastructure.</p><p>Reflective of the expected growth in cloud gaming revenues, the report further stated that by the end of 2021, cloud gaming is set to have 23.7 million paying users as the frequency of new services increases along with improvements in the existing ones.</p><p>4 Stocks to Watch Out For</p><p>Cloud gaming seems poised to continue its good run as it allows users to play conveniently without having to necessarily purchase expensive gaming hardware. Moreover, the rising Internet penetration and availability of 5G should provide a further boost to the cloud gaming market. Therefore, this seems like a good time to take a look at stocks that can make the most of this increasing demand for cloud gaming. Notably, we have selected four such stocks that carry a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold).</p><p><b>Alphabet Inc.</b>’sGOOGLGoogle has its cloud gaming platform called Stadia, which allows users to play video games on compatible devices by streaming them directly. The company currently has a Zacks Rank #1. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for its current-year earnings increased 23.1% over the past 60 days. The company’s expected earnings growth rate for the current year is nearly 45%.</p><p><b>NVIDIA Corporation</b>NVDAoffers GeForce NOW, a cloud-based game streaming service.

Interestingly, cloud gaming doesn’t require users to purchase expensive personal computers or hardware for gaming. This is because the games run online or on remote servers and users can access them easily without having to go through the hassle of downloading and installing them on their devices.Users can simply purchase gaming subscriptions or access free-to-play titles on compatible devices like desktops, smartphones, tablets, and so on. Moreover, cloud gaming allows users to play games that they might own on other gaming consoles.Markedly, the rising penetration of Internet across the globe has been instrumental in increasing the popularity of cloud gaming. After all, a stable Internet connection is a basic requirement for cloud gaming. Moreover, the increasing availability of 5G services around the world is sure to provide another leg up to cloud gaming. This is because 5G offers low latency and faster speeds, which means that buffering in games will be lowered, thereby improving the overall experience.In any case, the popularity of cloud gaming had been gradually gaining ground, but the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic last year helped in catapulting that demand. Being stuck at home, people needed some form of entertainment which led to video games taking center stage. This, in turn, resulted in rising interest in cloud gaming, especially in countries like the United States. In fact, asurveyby Piplsay last year showed that 52% of U.S. gamers took an interest in cloud gaming in 2020, amid the lockdown while 44% of U.S. gamers responded that they subscribed to a game streaming service.Cloud Gaming Boom to Continue in 2021While major economies around the world are gradually returning to normalcy owing to an accelerated vaccination drive, the popularity of cloud gaming looks set to continue. Markedly, gaming market analytics provider Newzoo estimated that the cloud gaming market is set toreach $1.4 billionin revenues in 2021 compared to $633 million in 2020. Moreover, the report stated that by 2023, the cloud gaming market is set to exceed the five-billion-dollar revenue mark, on the back of improving technology and infrastructure.Reflective of the expected growth in cloud gaming revenues, the report further stated that by the end of 2021, cloud gaming is set to have 23.7 million paying users as the frequency of new services increases along with improvements in the existing ones.4 Stocks to Watch Out ForCloud gaming seems poised to continue its good run as it allows users to play conveniently without having to necessarily purchase expensive gaming hardware. Moreover, the rising Internet penetration and availability of 5G should provide a further boost to the cloud gaming market.

With the Dow up 3375 points, or 11%, it would be the second best 100 days' performance in 100 years — handily beating the median Dow return of 2% and the average of 5%. Only former President Franklin D. Roosevelt's sky-high return of 75% in the 1930s fared better.</p>\n<p>\"Love him or hate him, stocks have voted and they love him... Considering stocks also had their best rally ever from Election Day until the inauguration, the bulls have to be smiling under President Biden,\" said Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist and senior vice president at LPL Financial.</p>\n<p>But the president is not the stock market, so they say. Former President Trump famously made a point to establish the stock market as his report card on the economy — a departure from most of his predecessors. But it was Franklin D.

Some estimates implied that Tesla would take a lion's share of the EV market despite the rapid increase in the number of competitors.</p>\n<p>By 2025, Tesla not only has to contend with pure-play EV-makers. It will also face new entrants such as Apple Inc. (AAPL) as well as Chinese smartphone giants Huawei and Xiaomi Corporation (OTC:XIACF)(OTCPK:XIACY). More traditional automakers will also be producing electric vehicles, even as they continue to churn out internal combustion engine-based cars.</p>\n<p>Even if the demand side is plausible, it would mean Tesla, Inc. needs to build many more factories. Given the effusive praise we have heard from Elon Musk regarding the speed of factory construction and on China in general, we could expect additional new plants to be cited in the populous country. That could add more&nbsp;geopolitical risks&nbsp;to the stock, as SA author John Engle argued.</p>\n<p>Then again, as many readers on Seeking Alpha, analysts, and Cathie Wood have postulated, Tesla's true potential lies in a future rollout of an autonomous ride-hailing fleet. Consequently, Tesla's revenue is projected to rise from $31.54 billion in 2020 to a whopping $388.52 billion on a consensus basis in 2030. That would bring the price-to-sales ratio to a mere 1.84 times on a forward basis.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fac352f9c2ac9bac0412ed076c27c75a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"368\"><span>Source: Seeking Alpha Premium</span></p>\n<p>If Tesla did not disappoint the most bullish of the optimists forecasting its revenue to hit $600.7 billion in 2030, its P/S ratio would drop even lower to 1.19 times! You might say, all that sales are wonderful but what does their profitability look like? Well, the analysts believe TSLA would make boatloads of money. The consensus EPS estimate for 2030 is $33.48, a massive jump from the $0.64 it achieved in 2020. If the 2030 EPS estimate is realized, those earnings at today's price would reflect a ratio of 22.2 times, which could be seen as incredibly low.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7650450aa6230d6585a502b571ee3652\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"278\"><span>Source: Seeking Alpha Premium</span></p>\n<p>With EV sales projected by industry consultancy Canalys to remain below 50 percent of the total car sales by 2030, there remains significant growth potential for Tesla to increase its revenue. As such, assuming the analysts are correct, the share price of TSLA will not stay at the present level for the P/S ratio to be just 1.84 times and the P/E ratio at 22.2 times, the share price of TSLA would rise further than where it stands today.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0cd810d4171606b50d186b8d9bf10bf5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"479\"></p>\n<p>Tesla stock split history: What was Tesla's stock price before the recent split?</p>\n<p>In other words, Tesla's share price would continue to rise over the next five to ten years. With that in mind, the question is, will TSLA split again? Before discussing that, let's review Tesla's previous split.</p>\n<p>On August 11, 2020, Tesla&nbsp;announced, after the market closed, that its board approved a five-for-one split of shares to \"make stock ownership more accessible to employees and investors.\" This marked Tesla's first-ever split announcement. The stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c1b22a860341fe3bf36996d737680ddb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"485\"></p>\n<p><b>How did Tesla's most recent stock split affect share prices?</b></p>\n<p>Interestingly, after the split was affected, Tesla stock lost much of the August gains in just a few trading sessions in early September. The share price decline was speculated by some to be due to shareholders paring their holdings since the split had resulted in them holding more TSLA shares. This seems logical as the purpose of the split was to accord shareholders with greater \"liquidity\" over their TSLA holding.</p>\n<p>However, the weakness in Tesla's share price was more likely attributable to a capital-raising exercise&nbsp;announced&nbsp;pre-market on September 1, 2020. Although only up to $5 billion worth of shares representing just over 1 percent of Tesla's market cap were to be sold, investors were probably looking for a trigger to take profit considering that TSLA was running in overbought territory for more than two weeks, according to the relative strength index [RSI] momentum indicator at that time.</p>\n<p>TSLA's strong run upwards had also led to the stock becoming \"overweight\" on many shareholders' portfolios. Ironically, that meant investors, whether individuals or fund managers had to reduce their Tesla holdings to avoid concentration risk. For funds with concentration guidelines or rules, it's not even a choice but a&nbsp;mandatory reduction&nbsp;exercise once the Tesla position became outsized.</p>\n<p>To make matters worse, Tesla stock was subsequently dragged down further into correction territory amid a sell-off by investors of tech favorites and \"all things frothy.\" The share price recovered some grounds quickly but the stock stagnated for a few months thereafter before a&nbsp;powerful wave of EV hypeswept TSLA up again to new heights.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/085a34d7256fb764f0652d6223057202\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"267\"><span>Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p><b>When will Tesla stock split again?</b></p>\n<p>Although Tesla's share price has pulled back from the peak earlier in the year, it remains much higher than the post-split level last year. At $744.12 at the time of writing, TSLA is 49 percent higher than the $498.32 close on August 31, 2020, the day of the stock split.</p>\n<p>If the past is any reference, Tesla executives did the stock split when the share price was in quadruple-digit. TSLA will need to rise more than 34 percent for that to happen again. As I opined earlier, Tesla stock appears to be poised for further upside. I believe it's more of a question of when, not if, will TSLA hit above $1,000 per share.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, even in the current investing environment where there are platforms allowing the trading of fractional shares, there are still benefits for stocks with smaller prices.

Some estimates implied that Tesla would take a lion's share of the EV market despite the rapid increase in the number of competitors.\nBy 2025, Tesla not only has to contend with pure-play EV-makers. It will also face new entrants such as Apple Inc. (AAPL) as well as Chinese smartphone giants Huawei and Xiaomi Corporation (OTC:XIACF)(OTCPK:XIACY). More traditional automakers will also be producing electric vehicles, even as they continue to churn out internal combustion engine-based cars.\nEven if the demand side is plausible, it would mean Tesla, Inc. needs to build many more factories. Given the effusive praise we have heard from Elon Musk regarding the speed of factory construction and on China in general, we could expect additional new plants to be cited in the populous country. That could add more geopolitical risks to the stock, as SA author John Engle argued.\nThen again, as many readers on Seeking Alpha, analysts, and Cathie Wood have postulated, Tesla's true potential lies in a future rollout of an autonomous ride-hailing fleet. Consequently, Tesla's revenue is projected to rise from $31.54 billion in 2020 to a whopping $388.52 billion on a consensus basis in 2030. That would bring the price-to-sales ratio to a mere 1.84 times on a forward basis.\nSource: Seeking Alpha Premium\nIf Tesla did not disappoint the most bullish of the optimists forecasting its revenue to hit $600.7 billion in 2030, its P/S ratio would drop even lower to 1.19 times! You might say, all that sales are wonderful but what does their profitability look like? Well, the analysts believe TSLA would make boatloads of money. The consensus EPS estimate for 2030 is $33.48, a massive jump from the $0.64 it achieved in 2020. If the 2030 EPS estimate is realized, those earnings at today's price would reflect a ratio of 22.2 times, which could be seen as incredibly low.\nSource: Seeking Alpha Premium\nWith EV sales projected by industry consultancy Canalys to remain below 50 percent of the total car sales by 2030, there remains significant growth potential for Tesla to increase its revenue. As such, assuming the analysts are correct, the share price of TSLA will not stay at the present level for the P/S ratio to be just 1.84 times and the P/E ratio at 22.2 times, the share price of TSLA would rise further than where it stands today.\n\nTesla stock split history: What was Tesla's stock price before the recent split?\nIn other words, Tesla's share price would continue to rise over the next five to ten years. With that in mind, the question is, will TSLA split again? Before discussing that, let's review Tesla's previous split.\nOn August 11, 2020, Tesla announced, after the market closed, that its board approved a five-for-one split of shares to \"make stock ownership more accessible to employees and investors.\" This marked Tesla's first-ever split announcement. The stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.\n\nHow did Tesla's most recent stock split affect share prices?\nInterestingly, after the split was affected, Tesla stock lost much of the August gains in just a few trading sessions in early September. The share price decline was speculated by some to be due to shareholders paring their holdings since the split had resulted in them holding more TSLA shares. This seems logical as the purpose of the split was to accord shareholders with greater \"liquidity\" over their TSLA holding.\nHowever, the weakness in Tesla's share price was more likely attributable to a capital-raising exercise announced pre-market on September 1, 2020. Although only up to $5 billion worth of shares representing just over 1 percent of Tesla's market cap were to be sold, investors were probably looking for a trigger to take profit considering that TSLA was running in overbought territory for more than two weeks, according to the relative strength index [RSI] momentum indicator at that time.\nTSLA's strong run upwards had also led to the stock becoming \"overweight\" on many shareholders' portfolios. Ironically, that meant investors, whether individuals or fund managers had to reduce their Tesla holdings to avoid concentration risk. For funds with concentration guidelines or rules, it's not even a choice but a mandatory reduction exercise once the Tesla position became outsized.\nTo make matters worse, Tesla stock was subsequently dragged down further into correction territory amid a sell-off by investors of tech favorites and \"all things frothy.\" The share price recovered some grounds quickly but the stock stagnated for a few months thereafter before a powerful wave of EV hypeswept TSLA up again to new heights.\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nWhen will Tesla stock split again?\nAlthough Tesla's share price has pulled back from the peak earlier in the year, it remains much higher than the post-split level last year. At $744.12 at the time of writing, TSLA is 49 percent higher than the $498.32 close on August 31, 2020, the day of the stock split.\nIf the past is any reference, Tesla executives did the stock split when the share price was in quadruple-digit. TSLA will need to rise more than 34 percent for that to happen again. As I opined earlier, Tesla stock appears to be poised for further upside. I believe it's more of a question of when, not if, will TSLA hit above $1,000 per share.\nNevertheless, even in the current investing environment where there are platforms allowing the trading of fractional shares, there are still benefits for stocks with smaller prices. One obvious advantage is the impact on psychology, as the mind interprets low prices as \"cheaply valued\" and having room to head north.\nThe leadership at Apple must be thinking the same as the folks at Tesla when the company executed its stock split around the same time as the EV giant last August. The share price appreciation from pre-announcement to post-stock split date was less spectacular compared to Tesla but still a hefty 41 percent.\n\nConsidering that Apple announced a stock split when the share price was much lower at $384.76, it goes to show there's value in considering a split in the stock even without the share price hitting quadruple-digit. Furthermore, AAPL has done this four times before - in 1987, 2000, 2005, and 2014 - when the share prices were all below $1,000. In 1987 and 2005, the stock was even trading at the sub-$100 level when the company did the split.\nJim Cramer was quoted as saying during an interview last year that Tim Cook explained the 2020 stock split to him, telling him that he wanted \"more people in the stock.\" I suppose that's what Bill Gates and his team thought when the software giant performed eight stock splits from the listing of Microsoft (MSFT) until 1999 as MSFT climbed exponentially during the period.

Investors sent shares of the electric-vehicle pioneer up sharply in early morning trading on Monday.</p>\n<p>Tesla (ticker: TSLA) reported 185,000 vehicle deliveries for the first three months of 2021. Analyst projections for the quarter had drifted down to between 160,000 and 170,000 vehicles due to the global automotive microchip shortage roiling the entire automotive industry.</p>\n<p>It was a big beat. What’s more, Tesla’s 185,000 deliveries were higher than what the Street expected before analysts warned of the chip shortage. Tesla stock, as a result, is up almost 8% in premarket trading to about $711 a share.S&amp;P 500&nbsp;and&nbsp;Dow Jones Industrial Average&nbsp;futures, for comparison, are both up less than 1%.</p>\n<p>The car maker’s deliveries were good enough for one analyst to upgrade his rating on the stock. Wedbush’sDan Ivesboosted his rating to Buy from Hold and raised his price target to $1,000 a share from $950. “The 1Q delivery number….was a paradigm changer and shows that the pent-up demand globally for&nbsp;Tesla’s Model 3/Y is hitting its next stage of growth,” wrote Ives in a Sunday note. “A global green tidal wave [is] underway.”</p>\n<p>Ives expects government incentives around the world to boost demand for electric vehicles. He increased his full-year delivery target for Tesla to about 850,000 vehicles. The current Wall Street consensus is about 800,000.</p>\n<p>New Street Research analyst&nbsp;Pierre Ferragu&nbsp;rated Tesla shares Buy with a $900 price target before Tesla’s delivery report. Ferragu, however, was a little nervous, believing that the chip shortage would impact deliveries. The results dismissed those concerns: “Initial review suggests we missed a monster March in China with Model Y ramping faster than we expected.” He sees Tesla’s earnings estimate moving higher because of Model Y growth. He also believes Tesla’s Model S and X vehicles, which are undergoing a refresh next quarter to upgrade interiors and features, can boost second-quarter results.</p>\n<p>Tesla delivered 2,000 Model S and X vehicles in the first quarter, lower than Baird analystBen Kalloexpected. “While a miss, this result is an inventory-clearing event ahead of significant upgrades of the model S and X,” wrote Kallo in a Monday report. those are undergoing a “refresh” in the second quarter. Auto makers will refresh models from time to time, upgrading interiors and features.</p>\n<p>This will be the most significant refresh of those two models. Tesla will also launch the Model S Plaid edition, which the car maker says will be the fastest production vehicle ever made. “The new vehicles are due for [second quarter] delivery as the company is in the early stages of ramping production.”</p>\n<p>Kallo rates shares Buy and has a $736 price target for the stock.</p>\n<p>Not everyone is as bullish on Tesla stock. Cowen analystJeffery Osbornerates shares Hold. Despite his more cautious view, Osborne is raising his full-year delivery numbers and price target for shares of Tesla. “Receptivity to the Model Y in China was always a grey area in our minds since there was never disclosure on deposit/interest levels from Tesla,” wrote Osborne in a Sunday report. “Given the upside in [the first quarter] coupled with the positive tone in the release, we are raising our Model Y forecasts for 2021 and would expect the Street to do so.” Osborne raised his price target to $573 from $545.</p>\n<p>J.P. Morgan analyst&nbsp;Ryan Brinkman, who rates shares Sell, raised his target to $155 from $135 a share, still well below where the stock has been trading. Brinkman noted that sequential deliveries from the fourth to the first quarter, at 2%, were essentially flat. That’s one reason he believes Tesla stock is overpriced.</p>\n<p>Sell-rated GLJ analyst&nbsp;Gordon Johnson&nbsp;made the same point in his note. “Tesla has a growing demand problem,” wrote Johnson, saying that the more than 100% year-over-year growth in the first quarter isn’t as important as the 2% sequential growth from the fourth to the first quarter. His target price for Tesla stock is the lowest on the Street at $67 a share.</p>\n<p>Johnson also questioned why Tesla&nbsp;produced zero&nbsp;Model S and X vehicles in the first quarter ahead of the refresh. That’s something analysts and investors can ask management about on the coming conference call.</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","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>Tesla’s Delivery Numbers Looked Great.

Investors sent shares of the electric-vehicle pioneer up sharply in early morning trading on Monday.\nTesla (ticker: TSLA) reported 185,000 vehicle deliveries for the first three months of 2021. Analyst projections for the quarter had drifted down to between 160,000 and 170,000 vehicles due to the global automotive microchip shortage roiling the entire automotive industry.\nIt was a big beat. What’s more, Tesla’s 185,000 deliveries were higher than what the Street expected before analysts warned of the chip shortage. Tesla stock, as a result, is up almost 8% in premarket trading to about $711 a share.S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average futures, for comparison, are both up less than 1%.\nThe car maker’s deliveries were good enough for one analyst to upgrade his rating on the stock. Wedbush’sDan Ivesboosted his rating to Buy from Hold and raised his price target to $1,000 a share from $950. “The 1Q delivery number….was a paradigm changer and shows that the pent-up demand globally for Tesla’s Model 3/Y is hitting its next stage of growth,” wrote Ives in a Sunday note. “A global green tidal wave [is] underway.”\nIves expects government incentives around the world to boost demand for electric vehicles. He increased his full-year delivery target for Tesla to about 850,000 vehicles. The current Wall Street consensus is about 800,000.\nNew Street Research analyst Pierre Ferragu rated Tesla shares Buy with a $900 price target before Tesla’s delivery report. Ferragu, however, was a little nervous, believing that the chip shortage would impact deliveries. The results dismissed those concerns: “Initial review suggests we missed a monster March in China with Model Y ramping faster than we expected.” He sees Tesla’s earnings estimate moving higher because of Model Y growth. He also believes Tesla’s Model S and X vehicles, which are undergoing a refresh next quarter to upgrade interiors and features, can boost second-quarter results.\nTesla delivered 2,000 Model S and X vehicles in the first quarter, lower than Baird analystBen Kalloexpected. “While a miss, this result is an inventory-clearing event ahead of significant upgrades of the model S and X,” wrote Kallo in a Monday report. those are undergoing a “refresh” in the second quarter. Auto makers will refresh models from time to time, upgrading interiors and features.\nThis will be the most significant refresh of those two models. Tesla will also launch the Model S Plaid edition, which the car maker says will be the fastest production vehicle ever made. “The new vehicles are due for [second quarter] delivery as the company is in the early stages of ramping production.”\nKallo rates shares Buy and has a $736 price target for the stock.\nNot everyone is as bullish on Tesla stock. Cowen analystJeffery Osbornerates shares Hold. Despite his more cautious view, Osborne is raising his full-year delivery numbers and price target for shares of Tesla. “Receptivity to the Model Y in China was always a grey area in our minds since there was never disclosure on deposit/interest levels from Tesla,” wrote Osborne in a Sunday report. “Given the upside in [the first quarter] coupled with the positive tone in the release, we are raising our Model Y forecasts for 2021 and would expect the Street to do so.” Osborne raised his price target to $573 from $545.\nJ.P. Morgan analyst Ryan Brinkman, who rates shares Sell, raised his target to $155 from $135 a share, still well below where the stock has been trading. Brinkman noted that sequential deliveries from the fourth to the first quarter, at 2%, were essentially flat. That’s one reason he believes Tesla stock is overpriced.\nSell-rated GLJ analyst Gordon Johnson made the same point in his note. “Tesla has a growing demand problem,” wrote Johnson, saying that the more than 100% year-over-year growth in the first quarter isn’t as important as the 2% sequential growth from the fourth to the first quarter. His target price for Tesla stock is the lowest on the Street at $67 a share.\nJohnson also questioned why Tesla produced zero Model S and X vehicles in the first quarter ahead of the refresh. That’s something analysts and investors can ask management about on the coming conference call.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":99,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3569478069644531","authorId":"3569478069644531","name":"GM33","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/93e233e9c84746e3cbd703306142c4eb","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3569478069644531","authorIdStr":"3569478069644531"},"content":"Slowly but surely","text":"Slowly but surely","html":"Slowly but surely"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":104858658,"gmtCreate":1620377363674,"gmtModify":1704342793122,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Diversification may be good","listText":"Diversification may be good","text":"Diversification may be good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/104858658","repostId":"2133520488","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2133520488","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1620357500,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2133520488?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-07 11:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Forget Dogecoin: These Stocks Are Infinitely Smarter Buys","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2133520488","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"With the Dogecoin bull thesis easily debunked, this trio of high-growth companies is a better way to put your money to work.","content":"<p>For more than a century, the stock market has been the undisputed greatest wealth creator on the planet.

This segment, which focuses on mobile gaming, had more than 610 million active users in the fourth quarter, 73.1 million of whom were paying customers. With people stuck in their homes in 2020 due to the pandemic, gaming was a form of release and entertainment. As a result, the company's paying customers grew by 120%.</p><p>Arguably the more important operating segment is e-commerce. Sea's online Shopee platform has consistently been the most popular e-commerce download in Southeast Asia. The combination of people staying home and desiring the convenience of ordering goods online has sent Shopee's growth trajectory into the stratosphere. The amount of gross merchandise value transacted on its network doubled last year to $35.4 billion, with gross orders rising 133% to 2.8 billion.

Even if President Joe Biden and his administration fail to pass any cannabis reforms at the federal level, state-level legalizations are providing more than enough growth potential for U.S. multistate operators. That's why <b>Trulieve Cannabis</b> (OTC:TCNNF) could run circles around Dogecoin.</p><p>What allows Trulieve Cannabis to stand out from an increasingly crowded field of marijuana companies is its laser focus on a single state. A little over two weeks ago, the company opened its 85th and 86th dispensaries nationwide. And 81 of these 86 retail locations are in the Sunshine State.</p><p>Instead of planting its flag in as many legalized markets as possible, Trulieve decided to saturate <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the largest states by annual cannabis sales. By piling into Florida, it's been able to effectively build up its brand without having to break the bank with marketing costs. Trulieve ended 2020 with a 53% share of the state's dried cannabis market and a 49% share of its oils market. It's worth pointing out that oils are a much higher-margin product and less susceptible to oversupply than dried cannabis.</p><p>Furthermore, Trulieve was profitable long before its peers. It's generated a profit for 12 consecutive quarters and should be profitable on a recurring basis moving forward. Being cash flow positive is a big advantage when it comes to opening new locations and attempting to expand its successful Florida blueprint to other legalized states.</p><p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F624448%2Fcomputer-data-saas-application-monitoring-enterprise-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"393\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Image source: Getty Images.</p><h2>Palantir Technologies</h2><p>A third stock that's an infinitely smarter buy than the hyped-up cryptocurrency Dogecoin is data-mining company <b>Palantir Technologies</b> (NYSE:PLTR).</p><p>Palantir is what you might call a dual threat. It has a platform that's specifically focused on helping the federal government categorize and analyze data (Gotham), and offers data-mining analytics for businesses, too (Foundry). Gotham is primarily used for defense purposes and military missions, whereas Foundry helps businesses visualize their data to make their operations more efficient.</p><p>Last year, Gotham was Palantir's primarily driver. Big military contract wins helped propel full-year sales for the company higher by 45%. But over the long run, Foundry offers more potential. Palantir has only scratched the surface of its potential customer pool for Foundry, and ended 2020 with 24 customers in the Global 300. There's work to be done to gain additional enterprise customers, but there's also a long runway of double-digit growth opportunity.</p><p>The thing to understand about Palantir Technologies' artificial-intelligence-driven platforms is that there's simply nothing else like them. This may be a controversial company given its tie-ins with certain federal agencies, but it's destined to be a moneymaker and a business that can keep growing by 30% or more for the next five years. That makes it a good bet to outperform Dogecoin.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Forget Dogecoin: These Stocks Are Infinitely Smarter Buys</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\">\nForget Dogecoin: These Stocks Are Infinitely Smarter Buys\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-07 11:18 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/05/06/forget-dogecoin-stocks-are-infinitely-smarter-buys/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>For more than a century, the stock market has been the undisputed greatest wealth creator on the planet.

Even if President Joe Biden and his administration fail to pass any cannabis reforms at the federal level, state-level legalizations are providing more than enough growth potential for U.S. multistate operators. That's why Trulieve Cannabis (OTC:TCNNF) could run circles around Dogecoin.What allows Trulieve Cannabis to stand out from an increasingly crowded field of marijuana companies is its laser focus on a single state. A little over two weeks ago, the company opened its 85th and 86th dispensaries nationwide. And 81 of these 86 retail locations are in the Sunshine State.Instead of planting its flag in as many legalized markets as possible, Trulieve decided to saturate one of the largest states by annual cannabis sales. By piling into Florida, it's been able to effectively build up its brand without having to break the bank with marketing costs. Trulieve ended 2020 with a 53% share of the state's dried cannabis market and a 49% share of its oils market. It's worth pointing out that oils are a much higher-margin product and less susceptible to oversupply than dried cannabis.Furthermore, Trulieve was profitable long before its peers. It's generated a profit for 12 consecutive quarters and should be profitable on a recurring basis moving forward. Being cash flow positive is a big advantage when it comes to opening new locations and attempting to expand its successful Florida blueprint to other legalized states.Image source: Getty Images.Palantir TechnologiesA third stock that's an infinitely smarter buy than the hyped-up cryptocurrency Dogecoin is data-mining company Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR).Palantir is what you might call a dual threat. It has a platform that's specifically focused on helping the federal government categorize and analyze data (Gotham), and offers data-mining analytics for businesses, too (Foundry). Gotham is primarily used for defense purposes and military missions, whereas Foundry helps businesses visualize their data to make their operations more efficient.Last year, Gotham was Palantir's primarily driver. Big military contract wins helped propel full-year sales for the company higher by 45%. But over the long run, Foundry offers more potential. Palantir has only scratched the surface of its potential customer pool for Foundry, and ended 2020 with 24 customers in the Global 300. There's work to be done to gain additional enterprise customers, but there's also a long runway of double-digit growth opportunity.The thing to understand about Palantir Technologies' artificial-intelligence-driven platforms is that there's simply nothing else like them. This may be a controversial company given its tie-ins with certain federal agencies, but it's destined to be a moneymaker and a business that can keep growing by 30% or more for the next five years. That makes it a good bet to outperform Dogecoin.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":458,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":117088370,"gmtCreate":1623110147690,"gmtModify":1704196134968,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice... gogogo Apple","listText":"Nice... gogogo Apple","text":"Nice... gogogo Apple","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/117088370","repostId":"1187003503","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1187003503","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623088169,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1187003503?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-08 01:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple announces iOS 15 for iPhones with lots of new social features","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1187003503","media":"cnbc","summary":"Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference  is the company's annual showcase for its software.

Apple reveals the latest version of iOS, its iPhone software, and updates to the software that runs on Apple TV, iPads, Apple Watch and Macs, in an effort to lure the best developers to sink time and investment into building software for Apple's computers.The bigger question is whether Apple will announce new hardware products. Often, it saves its best launches for the fall, around when new iPhones come out. This year, it released new Mac computers and iPads in the spring. But, sometimes it reveals new computers that run on the latest software. This year, some rumors have suggested it may introduce new MacBook Pro laptops and possibly an update to the AirPods headphones.We'll have everything Apple announces in the live blog below.The event begins at 1 p.m. Eastern.Is the iPad a computer yet?I can’t tell you how many WWDCs I’ve sat through where Apple claimed it’s beefed up the multitasking capabilities of the iPad in order to make it function more like a regular laptop.And Apple did it again today. (See Kif’s early blog entry for more details.)But none of those updates matter if app developers don’t take advantage of these features. Historically, it’s been difficult for Apple to convince developers to take the iPad seriously as a computer replacement, which is why the tablets are still mostly used for consumption, not creation.It’s way better than it used to be. (In fact, I use my iPad more than I use my MacBook these days.) But there’s still a long way to go for the iPad to catch up to the MacBook.There’s an easier solution though: Just put a touchscreen on the MacBook. Please.--Steve KovachApple announces new iPad software called iPadOS 15 that lets you do more at onceiPadOS Source: AppleApple announced new iPad software called iPadOS 15.IPadOS 15 includes new ways to rearrange iPad apps, put widgets on the home screen and the App Library feature, formerly iPhone exclusive, that automatically organizes apps.Apple also introduced a new multitasking interface that makes it easier to put two apps side by side on the iPad screen.The Apple notes app has been updated to better interface with other apps. One feature, called Quick Notes, lets users jot notes using the Apple Pencil, a stylus.A new version of the Translate app for iPads allows users to speak and have the discussion translated on-screen in real time.Apple’s app for learning how to code, Swift Playgrounds, can now build full apps, which can be submitted to the App Store Apple said.— Kif LeswingApple’s AirPods headphones can now be used to improve hearingA new feature coming to AirPods called “Conversation Boost” helps people better understand who they’re talking to in real time in a busy environment. Users can also adjust ambient background noise levels to help improve audio. Siri will also soon read important notifications, if you want it to, instead of just incoming calls and messages. — Kif LeswingApple Maps gets big new update with more city details and 3D modelsApple is updating its maps software with new 3D data. It now includes turning lanes and other road conditions. It is expanding to Spain, Portugal, Italy and Australia later this year, Apple said.— Kif LeswingIf you thought Facebook was angry with Apple before today...The slew of new communication features Apple announced for iOS 15 on Monday are sure to have Mark Zuckerberg’s blood boiling over atFacebookheadquarters.In effect, these new features build a closed-off social network for Apple, letting you share Apple News stories, Apple Music tracks and even hold FaceTime video chats with non-iPhone users.Zuckerberg has already said he considers Apple a major competitor because of iMessage. Now Apple is building out even more social features natively into iOS. And, of course, Apple will be able to promote the privacy of these social features, unlike Facebook.--Steve KovachApple announces iOS 15, newest version of iPhone’s softwareApple’s senior vice president in charge of software, Craig Federighi, announced iOS 15, the latest version of the iPhone operating system. This software typically releases for most users alongside new iPhones in the fall, but developers and early adopters can start using it earlier, typically during the summer.iOS 15 includes:FaceTime improvements, including 3D audio, portrait mode to blur backgrounds, and a grid view to speak to multiple people at the same time. Apple will also allow users to send links to schedule individual FaceTime calls, like Zoom links. Users can also share their screens or music, through a new software feature called ShareTime.FaceTime calls are also now supported on Windows and Android through a browser, the first time that FaceTime has been supported across platforms.An iMessage redesign, which includes features that turns messaged photos into galleries.A new feature called “shared with you” saves links that people sent you and puts them in one place so users can address them later. It works with Apple Music, Safari, Apple Podcasts, Apple TV and Apple News. Users can pin important messages featuring content.Redesigned notifications, including a feature that collects users notifications into a custom summary of all the notifications the user may have missed. The notifications are ordered by priority, and notifications by people will not be included so they won’t be missed.Users who have turned on “do not disturb” or a new “focus” mode will have their status shared with other users, like an away message.Focus mode can hide any apps that you don’t want to distract you.Camera improvements, including a feature called Live Text that can automatically identify and scan text in photographs.Apple’s machine learning will also be able to identify elements in photos, such as location or whether there’s a pet in the scene. Apple’s system search, Spotlight, will search these elements.A feature called Memories will use machine learning to combine photos into relevant galleries or animations and sometimes add music from Apple Music.Apple is also updating expanding the Wallet app functionality to include corporate badges as well as keys to get into hotels and houses with smart homes.Apple is also going to support scanning U.S. IDs, such as drivers licenses, into their wallet. Apple says it is only supported in some states for now, and the TSA will accept the credential.Apple CEO Tim Cook kicks off WWDCAfter a short comedy video focusing on software developers, Apple CEO Tim Cook has kicked off the show from the company’s headquarters in Cupertino, California. He came out on stage to a virtual crowd of avatars.— Kif LeswingFacebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg needles Apple ahead of its conferenceFacebook CEOMark Zuckerberg needled Applehours before its WWDC conference was scheduled to kick off.In a short poston his Facebook page, Zuckerberg announced a new Facebook feature enabling users to tip social media personalities. He said Facebook isn’t charging until at least 2023, and when it does, it will take less than the 30% fee Apple charges iPhone apps using in-app purchases.“To help more creators make a living on our platforms, we’re going to keep paid online events, fan subscriptions, badges, and our upcoming independent news products free for creators until 2023. And when we do introduce a revenue share, it will be less than the 30% that Apple and others take,” Zuckerberg wrote.Apple’s developer conference this year takes place at an uncertain time in Apple developer relations. Apple needs computer software companies to make apps for its platforms, which in turn makes its products more attractive to users.WWDC is aimed at getting those software makers excited about Apple. But Epic Games, Facebook and other firms have complained that Apple’s App Store rules are too stringent and its 30% fee for digital purchases is too high.— Kif LeswingApple’s web store remains onlineApple has historically taken down its online store for a few hours during a big launch, signaling exciting new products being added and building hype. But on Monday, the store was still up 15 minutes before WWDC was scheduled to kick off, suggesting no new major products.— Kif LeswingApple should bring Mac features to iPads todayI hope to see Apple bring some of the software features from MacBooks to iPads today.Thelatest MacsandiPad Pros run on the same M1 processor, so there’s enough power on the high-end iPads for running apps in multiple windows, like you would on a traditional computer, and support for using an external display for any app.A report fromBloombergover the weekend suggested we’ll at least see improvements to iPad multitasking, so it seems like my wish is at least plausible.Apple has so far said it sees iPads and Macs as totally different devices with different use cases, so I don’t expect a complete merge of the operating systems.-- Todd HaseltonThe Apple-developer love fest is overIn normal times, WWDC is a love fest between Apple and the developers who keep itsmassively profitable App Store chugging along.But this year is going to be different. The disputes over App Store fees between Apple and big-name developers likeSpotifyhave spilled into the public view in recent months. That’s especially apparent with thelegal battle between Apple and Epic Games. The two companies went through a three-week trial last month, and the judge’s decision in the case could alter the power dynamics between Apple and app developers.In the past, developers remained quiet about their complaints with Apple’s App Store rules, lest they draw the ire of Tim Cook and company and risk their access to the App Store. But thanks to groups like theCoalition for App Fairnessand the overall anti-Big Tech sentiment in Western governments, developers now feel emboldened to make their complaints known.I’m most interested to see how Apple uses this year’s WWDC to highlight the benefits it can offer developers while still protecting one of its massive profit centers, the App Store.-- Steve Kovach","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":587,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3576820982022251","authorId":"3576820982022251","name":"Shindokai","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/548d3e56658ca7df99ec4ad0e0b65d4d","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3576820982022251","authorIdStr":"3576820982022251"},"content":"Hope it wont have more issues thAn ios 14.6","text":"Hope it wont have more issues thAn ios 14.6","html":"Hope it wont have more issues thAn ios 14.6"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":378279688,"gmtCreate":1619048335144,"gmtModify":1704718708254,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Bought on the dips","listText":"Bought on the dips","text":"Bought on the dips","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/378279688","repostId":"1146491759","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1146491759","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619048005,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1146491759?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-22 07:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Netflix deserves the benefit of the doubt, despite subscriber slowdown, Jim Cramer says","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1146491759","media":"cnbc","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nNetflix shares dropped 7% after the company posted its earnings report, but CNBC’s Jim C","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nNetflix shares dropped 7% after the company posted its earnings report, but CNBC’s Jim Cramer argued its a mistake to give up on the stock.\n“After the incredible performance this company’s...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/21/cramer-netflix-deserves-benefit-of-the-doubt-despite-subscriber-slowdown.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Investors were disappointed by softer-than-expected subscriber growth and an uncertain future in the short term, Cramer noted.\n“After the incredible performance this company’s given us over the years, you’ve gotta remember that doubting Netflix has been a mistake every step of the way,” Cramer said on “Mad Money.”\nNetflix reported having 208 million paid subscribers at the end of March, a 14% increase from a year ago but short of the 210 million figure the company expected.\nDespite the dip in subscriber growth, CFO Spencer Neumann said on the conference call that “business remains healthy,” engagement is increasing and customer turnover is declining.\n“To me, that says ‘please, don’t panic’ ... I think they’ll find a way to jumpstart new sign-ups with must-see content, whether they create it themselves or have to license it from someone else,” Cramer said. “In other words, I am giving Netflix credit for something that doesn’t exist yet, something that will make us feel compelled to subscribe despite all the competition.”\nEarlier Wednesday, Cramer said Netflix stock could potentially drop to $490 a share, though he remains bullish in the long run. Netflix shares finished at $508.90 on Wednesday, down 14% from their peak trade in January.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":114,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3574980150965538","authorId":"3574980150965538","name":"ZefactoTrader","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/394063a289e727c8c5c2734207c9aabd","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3574980150965538","authorIdStr":"3574980150965538"},"content":"Help like this reply thanks","text":"Help like this reply thanks","html":"Help like this reply thanks"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":196914425,"gmtCreate":1621004602667,"gmtModify":1704351891549,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Will buy $dis if it drop to $160 today","listText":"Will buy $dis if it drop to $160 today","text":"Will buy $dis if it drop to $160 today","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/196914425","repostId":"1173244066","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1173244066","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1621004086,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1173244066?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-14 22:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What Disney, Airbnb and DoorDash results reveal about the post-pandemic economy","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1173244066","media":"CNN","summary":"London (CNN Business)Companies are gearing up for an era in which Covid-19 isn't the primary driver ","content":"<p>London (CNN Business)Companies are gearing up for an era in which Covid-19 isn't the primary driver of how people spend their money.</p>\n<p>The big question: As the coronavirus situation improves in countries like the United States, which trends from the past 14 months will have staying power, and which will be resigned to the pandemic past?</p>\n<p>Airbnb, DoorDash and Disney (DIS), which reported results after US markets closed on Thursday, provide some idea.</p>\n<p>Airbnb: The company said interest in travel is surging again as vaccines become more widely available, pointing to a sharp increase in bookings in the United Kingdom immediately after British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced plans in February to gradually exit lockdown.

For much of 2020, NIO could do no wrong.</p>\n<p>In 2021, however, it appears as if the electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer can’t do anything good enough for investors. As of this writing, NIO stock is down about 30% for the year.</p>\n<p>Frequently labeled “the<b>Tesla</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>TSLA</u></b>) of China,” Nio is making strong inroads in its home country.</p>\n<p>In its recently released first-quarter 2021 earnings, thecompanyreported deliveries of over 20,000&nbsp;for the first time and isprojecting deliveries of 21,000 to 22,000 vehicles&nbsp;in Q2 for revenue between $1.24billon&nbsp;and $1.29 billion.</p>\n<p>Nio also justlaunched its services in Norway. This is another area in which Nio delivered on expectations it gave investors.</p>\n<p>Investors seem unimpressed, possibly because of EV fatigue. Also, a global semiconductor chip shortage is likely to curtail Nio’s growth in the short term.&nbsp;However&nbsp;the chip shortage is neither of Nio’s creation, nor is Nio the only company subject to any fallout from it.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, as I wrote back in March, with a market cap of just under $60 billion, Nio is facing theprivilege of expectations.</p>\n<p>Right now that means anything that suggests Nio won’t meet what will need to be lofty revenue expectations (in addition to turning a profit) is a drag on the stock.</p>\n<p><b>What Makes Nio Different?</b></p>\n<p>The company’s battery-as-a-service (BaaS) is a real innovation and one that is currently exclusive to Nio. The benefit of BaaS is reflected in the sticker price of a Nio vehicle.</p>\n<p>However&nbsp;I think the larger story with BaaS is that it takes an agnostic approach to the charging problem. And charging is a concern that is on prospective EVowners’&nbsp;minds. A 2021<i>Autolist</i>&nbsp;surveyidentifiesEV battery range as being the primary concern&nbsp;among over 60% of respondents. But the larger story is that price and charging infrastructure came in second and third respectively.</p>\n<p>This creates a win-win-win situation for Nio.

For much of 2020, NIO could do no wrong.\nIn 2021, however, it appears as if the electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer can’t do anything good enough for investors. As of this writing, NIO stock is down about 30% for the year.\nFrequently labeled “theTesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) of China,” Nio is making strong inroads in its home country.\nIn its recently released first-quarter 2021 earnings, thecompanyreported deliveries of over 20,000 for the first time and isprojecting deliveries of 21,000 to 22,000 vehicles in Q2 for revenue between $1.24billon and $1.29 billion.\nNio also justlaunched its services in Norway. This is another area in which Nio delivered on expectations it gave investors.\nInvestors seem unimpressed, possibly because of EV fatigue. Also, a global semiconductor chip shortage is likely to curtail Nio’s growth in the short term. However the chip shortage is neither of Nio’s creation, nor is Nio the only company subject to any fallout from it.\nNevertheless, as I wrote back in March, with a market cap of just under $60 billion, Nio is facing theprivilege of expectations.\nRight now that means anything that suggests Nio won’t meet what will need to be lofty revenue expectations (in addition to turning a profit) is a drag on the stock.\nWhat Makes Nio Different?\nThe company’s battery-as-a-service (BaaS) is a real innovation and one that is currently exclusive to Nio. The benefit of BaaS is reflected in the sticker price of a Nio vehicle.\nHowever I think the larger story with BaaS is that it takes an agnostic approach to the charging problem. And charging is a concern that is on prospective EVowners’ minds. A 2021Autolist surveyidentifiesEV battery range as being the primary concern among over 60% of respondents. But the larger story is that price and charging infrastructure came in second and third respectively.\nThis creates a win-win-win situation for Nio. With the ability for owners to swap their batteries in what Nio claims will beless than three minutes, range becomes less of a concern.\nPlus, being able to sell the battery as a separate item lowers the price of a Nio which already benefits from subsidies.\nAlthough Nio’s BaaS program helps eliminate some of the range concerns for EV’s, the company does sell EV accessories including charging stations and internet connection services for its vehicles.\nAs Louis Navellier recently wrote, revenue from these businessesincreased by 395.3% year-over-year, and the $88 million in revenue was a 23.4% increase from Q4 2020.\nLong-Term Outlook for NIO Stock\nOne thing that I always look at in my investing decisions (and quitefrankly a lot of decisions period) is the cost of being wrong.\nJust one year ago, the cost of being wrong on Nio was severe. NIO stock looked like a candidate to go bankrupt.\nIf you say you knew that the company was going to get a lifeline from the Chinese government, then you have access to a lot more inside information than most investors.\nToday, the risk premium for Nio is much smaller. That’s not to say that shares may not still have more room to fall, but this is the privilege of expectations.\nAnalysts are generally bullish on NIO stock with a 12-month price target of $50.78 which would be a gain of over 37% from the stock’s current level.\nNIO stock has traded within apretty wide range in the past month.So you may want to wait for a little more consolidation to find a clear entry point before adding to or entering a position.\nOn the date of publication Chris Markoch did not have (either directly or indirectly) any positions in the securities mentioned in this article.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":360,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371080434,"gmtCreate":1618892282228,"gmtModify":1704716454349,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nio c'mon let's go up","listText":"Nio c'mon let's go up","text":"Nio c'mon let's go up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/371080434","repostId":"1192216088","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1192216088","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1618890563,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1192216088?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-20 11:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nio's Stock Has Option Traders Gearing Up For Higher Move","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1192216088","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Nio Inc-ADR NIO 1.94% unveiled its ET7 smart electric vehicle model with its official interior, as w","content":"<p><b>Nio Inc-ADR</b>&nbsp;NIO 1.94%&nbsp;unveiled&nbsp;its ET7 smart electric vehicle model with its official interior, as well as the company's&nbsp;new Power North Plan, at&nbsp;the19th Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibitiontoday.

To date, the company has raised $464 million in venture capital, most recently,$130 million in a Series F roundlast July. Coursera’s biggest institutional shareholders are New Enterprise Associates (18.3% of company stock), G Squared (15.9%) and Kleiner Perkins (9.2%).</p><p><b>Operating Results</b></p><p>The company earned $293 million in revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, up 59% from 2019. Net losses widened by about $20 million year-on-year, reaching $66.8 million in 2020. Revenues shot up as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic’s effect on traditional education. In tandem with rising demand, operating costs associated with the company’s services rose, largely driven by the freemium content and marketing expenses. Coursera added over 12,000 new degree learners across the two years ended December 31, 2020 at an average acquisition cost of just below $2,000. The number of registered users rose by 65% year-on-year in 2020. Coursera’s accumulated deficit since its founding stood at $343.6 million as of December 31, 2020. The company does not expect to turn a profit in the foreseeable future.</p><p>The company’sCoursera for Campus,launched in late 2019to enable colleges to offer its library of MOOCs to their students, has been a key driver of recent revenue growth. At the start of the pandemic, Coursera made the program free to tertiary institutions until Sept. 30, 2020. Over 4,000 tertiary institutions from across the world signed up for the program, which, according to the company’s S-1 filing, makes it, “one of our fastest growing offerings”. As of December 31, 2020, over 130 tertiary institutions were paying for it.</p><p>At this point, it is hard to predict what the end of the pandemic would have on the company’s operating results.</p><p><b>The Strategy and Market Opportunity</b></p><p>Coursera is one of the most disruptive firms in the world. It has a flywheel approach to value creation, with significant price-to-cost advantages versus its competition. The company reported that about half of its new degree students in 2020 had been previously registered with Coursera and that its average student acquisition cost was less than $2,000. Its average student acquisition cost is lower than the industry standard. The edu-tech platform is able to efficiently acquire learners at scale because of the huge number of free, high-quality courses that it offers in partnership with top educational institutions and corporations; its ability to personalize content based on its wealth of data; the strength of word-of-mouth promotion by learners; the profitability of its affiliate paid marketing channel.</p><p>The platform offers a number of education tracks, for example:</p><ul><li>Specializations: A learner can pay between $39 and $99 a month for job-specific content across over 500 categories.</li><li>MasterTrack Certificates: For a quarter to a year, a learner can earn a certificate issued by a university-issued certificate.

Converting only a fraction of its 77 million registered users into paid users would change the economics of customer acquisition. The company’s present scale is a huge competitive advantage in the market.</p><p>A learner’s curriculum is designed to be “stackable”, which is to say that a learner can go through a domain in an incremental fashion.

Amazon's stock is off 11% from a recent peak in early February. And chipmaker Nvidia (NVDA) has seen its shares plunge nearly 19% since the middle of last month.What's happening: Tech companies are getting hammered by the recent sell-off in markets. Many stocks in the sector have entered a correction, logging declines of at least 10% from their recent peaks.The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite may not be far behind. The index finished Friday more than 8% below the record high notched on Feb. 12. Futures point to another rough trading session on Monday.Breaking it down: Investors have become increasingly worried that the reopening of many big economies later this year will lead to a spike in prices as people rush out to restaurants and book vacations. That could put pressure on central banks like the Federal Reserve to hike interest rates sooner than expected.Rock-bottom rates have been a boon for fast-growing tech companies. They've helped keep yields on government bonds extremely low, boosting interest in riskier investments like stocks that offer better returns.But now, bond yields are rising on inflation concerns. That could make assets like US Treasuries start to appear more enticing — triggering outflows from the tech names that have been so popular over the past 11 months.Jeroen Blokland, a portfolio manager at Robeco, thinks that as estimates for economic growth continue to improve, so-called \"value\" stocks in sectors like banking — which benefit from a healthy economy — may begin to get a second look.\"If you believe in this whole reopening and estimates of GDP growth ... that means growth is less scarce,\" he told me. \"[Then the] value sector has at least the possibility to play catch up.\"See here: The KBW Bank Index, which tracks top US lenders, is up more than 20% this year. The Nasdaq, meanwhile, has almost wiped out all of its 2021 gains.Many strategists think the declines are healthy, and that share prices of many tech companies shot up too much, too fast.Continued selling may hinge on what we hear from central bankers in the coming days. The European Central Bank, which meets later this week, has stated clearly that it will take some action if it believes the rapid increase in bond yields will lead to tighter financial conditions. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has been less explicit.Blokland thinks that if the yield on the 10-year US Treasury note marches significantly higher this week, Powell may have no choice but to strongly assert that the Fed will act as necessary to ensure the economic recovery isn't affected by market turmoil.\"If we have another week like last week, [he has] to do something,\" Blokland said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":45,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":191986659,"gmtCreate":1620833698371,"gmtModify":1704349147028,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"For the long term","listText":"For the long term","text":"For the long term","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/191986659","repostId":"1190538975","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":339,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":375187162,"gmtCreate":1619316028256,"gmtModify":1704722324270,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Means price will go up again i suppose.","listText":"Means price will go up again i suppose.","text":"Means price will go up again i suppose.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/375187162","repostId":"1166519043","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1166519043","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619192700,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1166519043?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-23 23:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Stock Split: Will It Happen Again?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1166519043","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Tesla not only has to contend with pure-play EV-makers.

Some estimates implied that Tesla would take a lion's share of the EV market despite the rapid increase in the number of competitors.</p>\n<p>By 2025, Tesla not only has to contend with pure-play EV-makers. It will also face new entrants such as Apple Inc. (AAPL) as well as Chinese smartphone giants Huawei and Xiaomi Corporation (OTC:XIACF)(OTCPK:XIACY). More traditional automakers will also be producing electric vehicles, even as they continue to churn out internal combustion engine-based cars.</p>\n<p>Even if the demand side is plausible, it would mean Tesla, Inc. needs to build many more factories. Given the effusive praise we have heard from Elon Musk regarding the speed of factory construction and on China in general, we could expect additional new plants to be cited in the populous country. That could add more&nbsp;geopolitical risks&nbsp;to the stock, as SA author John Engle argued.</p>\n<p>Then again, as many readers on Seeking Alpha, analysts, and Cathie Wood have postulated, Tesla's true potential lies in a future rollout of an autonomous ride-hailing fleet. Consequently, Tesla's revenue is projected to rise from $31.54 billion in 2020 to a whopping $388.52 billion on a consensus basis in 2030. That would bring the price-to-sales ratio to a mere 1.84 times on a forward basis.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fac352f9c2ac9bac0412ed076c27c75a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"368\"><span>Source: Seeking Alpha Premium</span></p>\n<p>If Tesla did not disappoint the most bullish of the optimists forecasting its revenue to hit $600.7 billion in 2030, its P/S ratio would drop even lower to 1.19 times! You might say, all that sales are wonderful but what does their profitability look like? Well, the analysts believe TSLA would make boatloads of money. The consensus EPS estimate for 2030 is $33.48, a massive jump from the $0.64 it achieved in 2020. If the 2030 EPS estimate is realized, those earnings at today's price would reflect a ratio of 22.2 times, which could be seen as incredibly low.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7650450aa6230d6585a502b571ee3652\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"278\"><span>Source: Seeking Alpha Premium</span></p>\n<p>With EV sales projected by industry consultancy Canalys to remain below 50 percent of the total car sales by 2030, there remains significant growth potential for Tesla to increase its revenue. As such, assuming the analysts are correct, the share price of TSLA will not stay at the present level for the P/S ratio to be just 1.84 times and the P/E ratio at 22.2 times, the share price of TSLA would rise further than where it stands today.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0cd810d4171606b50d186b8d9bf10bf5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"479\"></p>\n<p>Tesla stock split history: What was Tesla's stock price before the recent split?</p>\n<p>In other words, Tesla's share price would continue to rise over the next five to ten years. With that in mind, the question is, will TSLA split again? Before discussing that, let's review Tesla's previous split.</p>\n<p>On August 11, 2020, Tesla&nbsp;announced, after the market closed, that its board approved a five-for-one split of shares to \"make stock ownership more accessible to employees and investors.\" This marked Tesla's first-ever split announcement. The stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c1b22a860341fe3bf36996d737680ddb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"485\"></p>\n<p><b>How did Tesla's most recent stock split affect share prices?</b></p>\n<p>Interestingly, after the split was affected, Tesla stock lost much of the August gains in just a few trading sessions in early September. The share price decline was speculated by some to be due to shareholders paring their holdings since the split had resulted in them holding more TSLA shares. This seems logical as the purpose of the split was to accord shareholders with greater \"liquidity\" over their TSLA holding.</p>\n<p>However, the weakness in Tesla's share price was more likely attributable to a capital-raising exercise&nbsp;announced&nbsp;pre-market on September 1, 2020. Although only up to $5 billion worth of shares representing just over 1 percent of Tesla's market cap were to be sold, investors were probably looking for a trigger to take profit considering that TSLA was running in overbought territory for more than two weeks, according to the relative strength index [RSI] momentum indicator at that time.</p>\n<p>TSLA's strong run upwards had also led to the stock becoming \"overweight\" on many shareholders' portfolios. Ironically, that meant investors, whether individuals or fund managers had to reduce their Tesla holdings to avoid concentration risk. For funds with concentration guidelines or rules, it's not even a choice but a&nbsp;mandatory reduction&nbsp;exercise once the Tesla position became outsized.</p>\n<p>To make matters worse, Tesla stock was subsequently dragged down further into correction territory amid a sell-off by investors of tech favorites and \"all things frothy.\" The share price recovered some grounds quickly but the stock stagnated for a few months thereafter before a&nbsp;powerful wave of EV hypeswept TSLA up again to new heights.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/085a34d7256fb764f0652d6223057202\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"267\"><span>Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p><b>When will Tesla stock split again?</b></p>\n<p>Although Tesla's share price has pulled back from the peak earlier in the year, it remains much higher than the post-split level last year. At $744.12 at the time of writing, TSLA is 49 percent higher than the $498.32 close on August 31, 2020, the day of the stock split.</p>\n<p>If the past is any reference, Tesla executives did the stock split when the share price was in quadruple-digit. TSLA will need to rise more than 34 percent for that to happen again. As I opined earlier, Tesla stock appears to be poised for further upside. I believe it's more of a question of when, not if, will TSLA hit above $1,000 per share.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, even in the current investing environment where there are platforms allowing the trading of fractional shares, there are still benefits for stocks with smaller prices. One obvious advantage is the impact on psychology, as the mind interprets low prices as \"cheaply valued\" and having room to head north.</p>\n<p>The leadership at Apple must be thinking the same as the folks at Tesla when the company executed its stock split around the same time as the EV giant last August. The share price appreciation from pre-announcement to post-stock split date was less spectacular compared to Tesla but still a hefty 41 percent.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/46bd0bed00b03ba1d738fd84c9dfb0dc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"483\"></p>\n<p>Considering that Apple&nbsp;announced&nbsp;a stock split when the share price was much lower at $384.76, it goes to show there's value in considering a split in the stock even without the share price hitting quadruple-digit. Furthermore, AAPL has done this four times before - in 1987, 2000, 2005, and 2014 - when the share prices were all below $1,000. In 1987 and 2005, the stock was even trading at the sub-$100 level when the company did the split.</p>\n<p>Jim Cramer was quoted as saying during an interview last year that Tim Cook explained the 2020 stock split to him, telling him that he wanted \"more people in the stock.\" I suppose that's what Bill Gates and his team thought when the software giant performed eight stock splits from the listing of Microsoft (MSFT) until 1999 as MSFT climbed exponentially during the period. Elon Musk and Tim Cook are the odd couple but I believe the former would agree on having \"more people\" in TSLA stock.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/44957db620e86907bb72e9691bc726e6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"250\"><span>Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p><b>Should you buy Tesla now or wait for a split?</b></p>\n<p>Video-streaming leader Netflix (NFLX) announced a seven-for-one stock split in 2015 when its share was around $700 pre-split. NFLX went on to do very well though it's very much due to its business success than a simple cosmetic stock split exercise. The point of bringing this up is that Tesla's share price is around where Netflix's share price was when the split was completed.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f3cbb0c9bd178401bc6cc863a0934af2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"271\"><span>Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p>Although Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) and Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL)(GOOG) are the odd tech companies trading at quadruple-digit levels, most others are trading in the triple-digit or smaller. With the favorable experience from the previous stock split, Tesla might not want to wait for the share price to hit quadruple-digit again before contemplating another split.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, there is&nbsp;existing literature&nbsp;that reveals a strong correlation between stock splits and \"outstanding stock price performance\", giving Tesla the impetus to do so. Another potential trigger point for Elon Musk to announce a stock split could be when TSLA hit $840 per share. He would be able to claim that the company would do a two-for-one split so that the share price becomes $420 post-split.</p>\n<p>Of course, the share price wouldn't stay flat from the announcement date until the effective date. Nonetheless, the media would have gone into overdrive covering the announcement and speculating about the number's link to weed as well as Elon's past brush with the securities law on his previous take-Tesla-private-at-$420 claim.

Some estimates implied that Tesla would take a lion's share of the EV market despite the rapid increase in the number of competitors.\nBy 2025, Tesla not only has to contend with pure-play EV-makers. It will also face new entrants such as Apple Inc. (AAPL) as well as Chinese smartphone giants Huawei and Xiaomi Corporation (OTC:XIACF)(OTCPK:XIACY). More traditional automakers will also be producing electric vehicles, even as they continue to churn out internal combustion engine-based cars.\nEven if the demand side is plausible, it would mean Tesla, Inc. needs to build many more factories. Given the effusive praise we have heard from Elon Musk regarding the speed of factory construction and on China in general, we could expect additional new plants to be cited in the populous country. That could add more geopolitical risks to the stock, as SA author John Engle argued.\nThen again, as many readers on Seeking Alpha, analysts, and Cathie Wood have postulated, Tesla's true potential lies in a future rollout of an autonomous ride-hailing fleet. Consequently, Tesla's revenue is projected to rise from $31.54 billion in 2020 to a whopping $388.52 billion on a consensus basis in 2030. That would bring the price-to-sales ratio to a mere 1.84 times on a forward basis.\nSource: Seeking Alpha Premium\nIf Tesla did not disappoint the most bullish of the optimists forecasting its revenue to hit $600.7 billion in 2030, its P/S ratio would drop even lower to 1.19 times! You might say, all that sales are wonderful but what does their profitability look like? Well, the analysts believe TSLA would make boatloads of money. The consensus EPS estimate for 2030 is $33.48, a massive jump from the $0.64 it achieved in 2020. If the 2030 EPS estimate is realized, those earnings at today's price would reflect a ratio of 22.2 times, which could be seen as incredibly low.\nSource: Seeking Alpha Premium\nWith EV sales projected by industry consultancy Canalys to remain below 50 percent of the total car sales by 2030, there remains significant growth potential for Tesla to increase its revenue. As such, assuming the analysts are correct, the share price of TSLA will not stay at the present level for the P/S ratio to be just 1.84 times and the P/E ratio at 22.2 times, the share price of TSLA would rise further than where it stands today.\n\nTesla stock split history: What was Tesla's stock price before the recent split?\nIn other words, Tesla's share price would continue to rise over the next five to ten years. With that in mind, the question is, will TSLA split again? Before discussing that, let's review Tesla's previous split.\nOn August 11, 2020, Tesla announced, after the market closed, that its board approved a five-for-one split of shares to \"make stock ownership more accessible to employees and investors.\" This marked Tesla's first-ever split announcement. The stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.\n\nHow did Tesla's most recent stock split affect share prices?\nInterestingly, after the split was affected, Tesla stock lost much of the August gains in just a few trading sessions in early September. The share price decline was speculated by some to be due to shareholders paring their holdings since the split had resulted in them holding more TSLA shares. This seems logical as the purpose of the split was to accord shareholders with greater \"liquidity\" over their TSLA holding.\nHowever, the weakness in Tesla's share price was more likely attributable to a capital-raising exercise announced pre-market on September 1, 2020. Although only up to $5 billion worth of shares representing just over 1 percent of Tesla's market cap were to be sold, investors were probably looking for a trigger to take profit considering that TSLA was running in overbought territory for more than two weeks, according to the relative strength index [RSI] momentum indicator at that time.\nTSLA's strong run upwards had also led to the stock becoming \"overweight\" on many shareholders' portfolios. Ironically, that meant investors, whether individuals or fund managers had to reduce their Tesla holdings to avoid concentration risk. For funds with concentration guidelines or rules, it's not even a choice but a mandatory reduction exercise once the Tesla position became outsized.\nTo make matters worse, Tesla stock was subsequently dragged down further into correction territory amid a sell-off by investors of tech favorites and \"all things frothy.\" The share price recovered some grounds quickly but the stock stagnated for a few months thereafter before a powerful wave of EV hypeswept TSLA up again to new heights.\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nWhen will Tesla stock split again?\nAlthough Tesla's share price has pulled back from the peak earlier in the year, it remains much higher than the post-split level last year. At $744.12 at the time of writing, TSLA is 49 percent higher than the $498.32 close on August 31, 2020, the day of the stock split.\nIf the past is any reference, Tesla executives did the stock split when the share price was in quadruple-digit. TSLA will need to rise more than 34 percent for that to happen again. As I opined earlier, Tesla stock appears to be poised for further upside. I believe it's more of a question of when, not if, will TSLA hit above $1,000 per share.\nNevertheless, even in the current investing environment where there are platforms allowing the trading of fractional shares, there are still benefits for stocks with smaller prices. One obvious advantage is the impact on psychology, as the mind interprets low prices as \"cheaply valued\" and having room to head north.\nThe leadership at Apple must be thinking the same as the folks at Tesla when the company executed its stock split around the same time as the EV giant last August. The share price appreciation from pre-announcement to post-stock split date was less spectacular compared to Tesla but still a hefty 41 percent.\n\nConsidering that Apple announced a stock split when the share price was much lower at $384.76, it goes to show there's value in considering a split in the stock even without the share price hitting quadruple-digit. Furthermore, AAPL has done this four times before - in 1987, 2000, 2005, and 2014 - when the share prices were all below $1,000. In 1987 and 2005, the stock was even trading at the sub-$100 level when the company did the split.\nJim Cramer was quoted as saying during an interview last year that Tim Cook explained the 2020 stock split to him, telling him that he wanted \"more people in the stock.\" I suppose that's what Bill Gates and his team thought when the software giant performed eight stock splits from the listing of Microsoft (MSFT) until 1999 as MSFT climbed exponentially during the period. Elon Musk and Tim Cook are the odd couple but I believe the former would agree on having \"more people\" in TSLA stock.\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nShould you buy Tesla now or wait for a split?\nVideo-streaming leader Netflix (NFLX) announced a seven-for-one stock split in 2015 when its share was around $700 pre-split. NFLX went on to do very well though it's very much due to its business success than a simple cosmetic stock split exercise. The point of bringing this up is that Tesla's share price is around where Netflix's share price was when the split was completed.\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nAlthough Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) and Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL)(GOOG) are the odd tech companies trading at quadruple-digit levels, most others are trading in the triple-digit or smaller. With the favorable experience from the previous stock split, Tesla might not want to wait for the share price to hit quadruple-digit again before contemplating another split.\nFurthermore, there is existing literature that reveals a strong correlation between stock splits and \"outstanding stock price performance\", giving Tesla the impetus to do so. Another potential trigger point for Elon Musk to announce a stock split could be when TSLA hit $840 per share. He would be able to claim that the company would do a two-for-one split so that the share price becomes $420 post-split.\nOf course, the share price wouldn't stay flat from the announcement date until the effective date. Nonetheless, the media would have gone into overdrive covering the announcement and speculating about the number's link to weed as well as Elon's past brush with the securities law on his previous take-Tesla-private-at-$420 claim. This would generate plenty of free publicity for the company.\nHowever, investors should not hang around for a stock split if they are intending to own shares in Tesla. It may not happen and the share price could still zoom upwards on speculations, improving sentiment, or due to business fundamentals.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":172,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":354893930,"gmtCreate":1617155948620,"gmtModify":1704696523059,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Apple stock fly again pls","listText":"Apple stock fly again pls","text":"Apple stock fly again pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/354893930","repostId":"1162415735","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1162415735","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1617153505,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1162415735?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-31 09:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple expected to unveil new iPhone, Mac and Watch software June 7 in virtual event","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1162415735","media":"CNBC","summary":"Appleannounced on Tuesday that its annual developers conference will begin June 7.

However, it's often the first time the public gets a sneak peek at new features coming to their devices. Typically, the software announced in June is released in beta form before final launch in the fall.In 2020, Apple said it was transitioning fromIntelprocessors to its own in-house chips. It announced thefirst computers to use its M1 processorsthat November. But, during WWDC 2020, it showed an example of how powerful its new chips are. It also announced iOS 14 for iPhones, iPadOS 14, watchOS 7, its Big Sur macOS update and new Apple TV software. In 2019, Apple used the event tounveil the Mac Pro, its most powerful computer ever, targeted at creative professionals such as movie editors.Reports have recently suggested Apple will announce new hardware products before WWDC 2021. NewiPads are expected in April, for example. But, the company is also due to refresh its iMacs and other computers with its new processor. So, it might make sense for Apple to introduce those new products in June if they don't come earlier.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":20,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":352788359,"gmtCreate":1617005311171,"gmtModify":1704800693392,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Still lot of room for growtg","listText":"Still lot of room for growtg","text":"Still lot of room for growtg","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/352788359","repostId":"1138514096","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1138514096","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1617000867,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1138514096?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-29 14:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Rout in China Tech Shares Is a Buying Opportunity for Some","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1138514096","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"(Bloomberg) -- The massive selloff in U.S.-listed shares of Chinese technology companies isn’t linke","content":"<p>(Bloomberg) -- The massive selloff in U.S.-listed shares of Chinese technology companies isn’t linked to their fundamentals and makes for a bigger buying opportunity, according to Citigroup Inc.</p>\n<p>The brokerage reiterated buy ratings on Baidu Inc., Tencent Music Entertainment Group and Vipshop Holdings Ltd. following what it called an “unfortunate dislocation” of their share prices.

Gary Dugan, chief executive officer at the Global CIO Office in Singapore, echoed Citi’s views.\n“While we are not sure whether the huge volatility of share price movement of many technology stocks during the last few days could trigger more forced selling pressure or de-risk selling sentiment from other funds in the next few days, we do believe and are reassured that none of the sell-down is fundamental related,” Citi analysts including Alicia Yap wrote in a note.\nThe comments come after Friday’s unprecedented selling in some U.S. stocks ranging from Chinese technology giants to American media conglomerates by the family office of former Tiger Management trader Bill Hwang. The firm, Archegos Capital Management, was forced by its banks to sell more than $20 billion worth of shares after some positions moved against Hwang, according to two people directly familiar with the trades.\nTechnical, Exaggerated\n“We would look at the selloff as technical and exaggerated and hence a long-term buying opportunity,” said Dugan of Global CIO Office.\nTencent Music, whose ADRs slumped 37% in the last three sessions, announced a $1 billion share buyback on Monday. Baidu has approximately $2.78 billion outstanding share repurchase programs that it could use for buying back the shares, Citi analysts wrote in a note.\n“Baidu’s growth outlook remains promising,” they wrote.\nCiti’s price target of $364 on Baidu’s ADRs implies a potential upside of about 75% from Friday’s close.\nBaidu’s stock, which made its debut in Hong Kong last week, slid 4.5% as of 11:15 a.m. local time, adding to its 5.6% loss from Friday. A measure of tech shares was down 0.9% even as the benchmark Hang Seng Index traded higher.\n“We bought some Baidu shares in Hong Kong last Friday,” said Paul Pong, managing director at Pegasus Fund Managers Ltd. in Hong Kong. “The valuation has turned very attractive.

IBM stock has delivered $27.60/share in dividends to its investors.</p>\n<p>This means IBM stock has delivered a total return of 20% to the “widows and orphans” who hold the stock.</p>\n<p>It also means roughly $24.5 billion in cash flow has flown out the door, uninvested.</p>\n<p>That’s the problem with dividends in our technology age. There’s an old tech saying that if you’re handing out dividends you don’t have anything better to do with the investors’ money.</p>\n<p>Cloud Czars like&nbsp;<b>Facebook</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>FB</u></b>), founded in 2004 and now worth $1 trillion, use cash flow for capital spending instead. This benefits investors more.</p>\n<p>If you’re thinking of buying IBM, you’re hoping this error ends after its managed infrastructure business,Kyndryl, becomes independent late this year.</p>\n<p>You’re hoping the dividend ceases to be an issue.</p>\n<p><b>A Closer Look at IBM Stock</b></p>\n<p>Kyndryl is expected to generate roughly&nbsp;$19 billion&nbsp;in sales per year when it’s spun out, into offices atop a skyscraper&nbsp;next to Grand Central Station. What remains will have roughly $54 billion in revenue and claim leadership in “hybrid cloud.”</p>\n<p>This could be the right time for such a move, as many companies are coming down with cloud “sticker shock.”</p>\n<p>According to analysts at Andreesen Horowitz’s new online publication&nbsp;<i>Future</i>,cloud margins compress over time. Companies that adopt the hybrid cloud model could end up saving $500 billion/year.</p>\n<p>This would be the sweet spot for the new IBM, and the Achilles heel of companies like&nbsp;<b>Amazon.Com</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AMZN</u></b>). Questions of where data is located, called&nbsp;cloud sovereignty, can complicate matters, but IBM thrives on such complexity.</p>\n<p><b>Investors Walk Away</b></p>\n<p>Most investors don’t recognize the opportunities, at least regarding IBM.Hedge funds have been walking away&nbsp;from the stock. Tipranks lists just eight analysts following IBM,only half of whom want you to buy it.</p>\n<p>But there are signs of a turnaround. IBM next reports earnings on July 19. Analysts expect revenue of $18.29 billion and earnings of&nbsp;$2.25/share.</p>\n<p>The March quarter,which beat estimates, saw $1.06/share of net income on revenue of $17.7 billion.</p>\n<p>If IBM can hit its estimates investors could see&nbsp;an historic breakout, according to Alan Farley of&nbsp;<i>FX Empire</i>.</p>\n<p>IBM’s stock price has been falling for years, to as low as $91/share at the height of last year’s pandemic. Investors who bought then have seen a gain of around 52%, but the NASDAQ’s gain has been 108%.</p>\n<p><b>IBM Strategy</b></p>\n<p>IBM’s strategy heading into the spin-off will be based on “industry clouds,” &nbsp;something also being embraced by Cloud Czars&nbsp;<b>Microsoft</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>MSFT</u></b>) and&nbsp;<b>Alphabet</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>GOOGL</u></b>).</p>\n<p>IBM’s hope is that hybrid cloud will become&nbsp;a default corporate IT design, seeking to make internal systems as efficient as cloud.</p>\n<p>While IBM does have its own cloud, it’s miniscule compared with those of the giants. Synergy Research says IBM is now fifthin the global cloud rental market, having been passed by&nbsp;<b>Alibaba Group Holding</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>BABA</u></b>).</p>\n<p>But its relatively small size may not be a hindrance if it’s also dedicated to building out clouds for clients and moving workloads for cost efficiency.</p>\n<p><b>The Bottom Line</b></p>\n<p>If you look up IBM in the news, you won’t see much focus on its hybrid cloud strategy.

IBM stock has delivered $27.60/share in dividends to its investors.\nThis means IBM stock has delivered a total return of 20% to the “widows and orphans” who hold the stock.\nIt also means roughly $24.5 billion in cash flow has flown out the door, uninvested.\nThat’s the problem with dividends in our technology age. There’s an old tech saying that if you’re handing out dividends you don’t have anything better to do with the investors’ money.\nCloud Czars like Facebook(NASDAQ:FB), founded in 2004 and now worth $1 trillion, use cash flow for capital spending instead. This benefits investors more.\nIf you’re thinking of buying IBM, you’re hoping this error ends after its managed infrastructure business,Kyndryl, becomes independent late this year.\nYou’re hoping the dividend ceases to be an issue.\nA Closer Look at IBM Stock\nKyndryl is expected to generate roughly $19 billion in sales per year when it’s spun out, into offices atop a skyscraper next to Grand Central Station. What remains will have roughly $54 billion in revenue and claim leadership in “hybrid cloud.”\nThis could be the right time for such a move, as many companies are coming down with cloud “sticker shock.”\nAccording to analysts at Andreesen Horowitz’s new online publication Future,cloud margins compress over time. Companies that adopt the hybrid cloud model could end up saving $500 billion/year.\nThis would be the sweet spot for the new IBM, and the Achilles heel of companies like Amazon.Com(NASDAQ:AMZN). Questions of where data is located, called cloud sovereignty, can complicate matters, but IBM thrives on such complexity.\nInvestors Walk Away\nMost investors don’t recognize the opportunities, at least regarding IBM.Hedge funds have been walking away from the stock. Tipranks lists just eight analysts following IBM,only half of whom want you to buy it.\nBut there are signs of a turnaround. IBM next reports earnings on July 19. Analysts expect revenue of $18.29 billion and earnings of $2.25/share.\nThe March quarter,which beat estimates, saw $1.06/share of net income on revenue of $17.7 billion.\nIf IBM can hit its estimates investors could see an historic breakout, according to Alan Farley of FX Empire.\nIBM’s stock price has been falling for years, to as low as $91/share at the height of last year’s pandemic. Investors who bought then have seen a gain of around 52%, but the NASDAQ’s gain has been 108%.\nIBM Strategy\nIBM’s strategy heading into the spin-off will be based on “industry clouds,”  something also being embraced by Cloud Czars Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT) and Alphabet(NASDAQ:GOOGL).\nIBM’s hope is that hybrid cloud will become a default corporate IT design, seeking to make internal systems as efficient as cloud.\nWhile IBM does have its own cloud, it’s miniscule compared with those of the giants. Synergy Research says IBM is now fifthin the global cloud rental market, having been passed by Alibaba Group Holding(NASDAQ:BABA).\nBut its relatively small size may not be a hindrance if it’s also dedicated to building out clouds for clients and moving workloads for cost efficiency.\nThe Bottom Line\nIf you look up IBM in the news, you won’t see much focus on its hybrid cloud strategy. Instead you might read about storage systems, aboutquantum computers, about government contracts ordisputes with its old chip foundry.\nBut don’t be fooled. IBM now has a strategy, to off-load the dividend, and focus on hybrid cloud. If it works, and it might, it could be “IBM to the Moon.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":418,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121651002,"gmtCreate":1624462964306,"gmtModify":1703837603563,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"If NIO can beat out tesla and reach $600 per share, i really do not mind.[LOL]&nbsp;","listText":"If NIO can beat out tesla and reach $600 per share, i really do not mind.[LOL]&nbsp;","text":"If NIO can beat out tesla and reach $600 per share, i really do not mind.[LOL]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121651002","repostId":"1145825451","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1145825451","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624433586,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1145825451?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 15:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why I Believe NIO Will Beat Out Tesla","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1145825451","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.Super fans of the latest and greatest high-endTesla, Inc. model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.Instead, the company has begun delivering a new Model S Plaid that has only a 390-mile range and 1,020 horsepower, though it still sprints to from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just two seconds.The go","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>The fact that Tesla scrapped its Model S Plaid Plus release is just part of it.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Super fans of the latest and greatest high-end<b>Tesla, Inc.</b>(NASDAQ:<b>TSLA</b>) model received some disappointing news a week ago when CEO Elon Musk abruptly canceled the release of its highly anticipated Model S Plaid Plus with a tweet on June 6.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b294a3604c7ba82bd19b3c70be3a4020\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: nrqemi / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Musk wrote there was… “No need, as Plaid is just so good.”</p>\n<p>The Model S Plaid Plus was supposed to be the fastest, most powerful and priciest version of the company’s Model S.

Strong demand in China even inspired a Citigroup analyst to upgrade NIO to a buy rating, as he expects demand to accelerate in the coming months.\nIn other words, NIO represents thecrème de la crèmeof EV stocks right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":680,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":192173647,"gmtCreate":1621170081889,"gmtModify":1704353574828,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Would it be bloodshed on monday?","listText":"Would it be bloodshed on monday?","text":"Would it be bloodshed on monday?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/192173647","repostId":"1115487503","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":646,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":101800473,"gmtCreate":1619870430692,"gmtModify":1704335922597,"author":{"id":"3574628824785575","authorId":"3574628824785575","name":"Ryuhahaha","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f120e9ade7d1ea48fc6c818e3b76edbb","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574628824785575","authorIdStr":"3574628824785575"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Innovation has been key to Tesla","listText":"Innovation has been key to Tesla","text":"Innovation has been key to Tesla","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/101800473","repostId":"1146129324","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1146129324","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619795610,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1146129324?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-30 23:13","market":"us","language":"en","title":"1 Question Tesla Investors Need to Ask Themselves","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1146129324","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Electric-car companyTeslahas now produced a profit for seven consecutive quarters.
