Crypto-related information services, insurance and derivatives trading are also banned.</p>\n<p>Firms were also urged to step up monitoring of money flows involved in cryptocurrency trading.</p>\n<p><b>WHAT WERE EARLIER RULES IN CHINA AGAINST CRYPTOCURRENCIES?</b></p>\n<p>China does not recognise cryptocurrencies as legal tender and the banking system does not accept cryptocurrencies or provide relevant services.</p>\n<p>In 2013, the government defined bitcoin as a virtual commodity and said individuals were allowed to freely participate in its online trade.</p>\n<p>However, later that year, financial regulators, including the PBOC, banned banks and payment companies from providing bitcoin-related services.</p>\n<p>In September 2017, China banned Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) in a bid to protect investors and curb financial risks.</p>\n<p>The ICO rules also banned cryptocurrency trading platforms from converting legal tender into cryptocurrencies and vice versa.</p>\n<p>The restrictions prompted most such trading platforms to shut down with many moving offshore.</p>\n<p>The ICO rules also barred financial firms and payment companies from providing services for ICOs and cryptocurrencies, including account openings, registration, trading, clearing or liquidation services.</p>\n<p>By July 2018, 88 virtual currency trading platforms and 85 ICO platforms that had withdrawn from the market, the PBOC said.</p>\n<p><b>WHY HAS CHINA TIGHTENED REGULATION?</b></p>\n<p>The global bitcoin bull run has revived cryptocurrency trading in China.</p>\n<p>Tuesday's industry directive warned speculative bitcoin trading had rebounded, infringing \"the safety of people's property and disrupting the normal economic and financial order.\"</p>\n<p>Many Chinese investors were now trading on platforms owned by Chinese exchanges that had relocated overseas, including Huobi and OKEx.

It has been growing briskly, with its stock increasing in value by more than sixfold over only about three years, since the company debuted on the public market. In its most recent quarter, revenue grew by 55% year over year, while billings jumped 71%. The company, recently sporting a market value near $26 billion, \"reached a new milestone by surpassing 5,000 customers during the quarter, including 500 of the Global 2000.\" Between fiscal 2016 and 2020, revenue grew more than fivefold.</p>\n<p>Zscaler has a \"big, audacious goal\" of reaching 200 million users and 100 million workloads, and in a presentation&nbsp;for investors, outlined a handful of growth drivers, such as upselling to existing customers, an increased presence in Japan and Latin America, and continuing technological innovations.The company has excelledat retaining customers and, indeed, at increasing the average amount they spend.</p>\n<p>One concern about Zscaler for investors may be that it has been posting net losses, not net income, in recent years.

Here are three growth stocks that have a lot of potential.\n\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\n1. Zscaler\nZscaler(NASDAQ:ZS)offers security technology for companies using various cloud services, and has been named the leader in secure web gateways by research firm Gartner. It has been growing briskly, with its stock increasing in value by more than sixfold over only about three years, since the company debuted on the public market. In its most recent quarter, revenue grew by 55% year over year, while billings jumped 71%. The company, recently sporting a market value near $26 billion, \"reached a new milestone by surpassing 5,000 customers during the quarter, including 500 of the Global 2000.\" Between fiscal 2016 and 2020, revenue grew more than fivefold.\nZscaler has a \"big, audacious goal\" of reaching 200 million users and 100 million workloads, and in a presentation for investors, outlined a handful of growth drivers, such as upselling to existing customers, an increased presence in Japan and Latin America, and continuing technological innovations.The company has excelledat retaining customers and, indeed, at increasing the average amount they spend.\nOne concern about Zscaler for investors may be that it has been posting net losses, not net income, in recent years. But that's not unusual for younger, smaller companies. They tend to plow as many dollars as possible into furthering their growth.\n2. Datadog\nSoftware-as-a-service (SaaS) companyDatadog(NASDAQ:DDOG)has been public for a shorter period than Zscaler. It debuted on the markets in September of 2019, closing at $37.55 per share on its first day, and it has more than doubled in value since then.

The plan was scuttled late last year amid heavy criticism from public companies.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":231,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":378730302,"gmtCreate":1619059732706,"gmtModify":1704719013528,"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"DD omitted important point: THEY LIKE THESTOCK ???","listText":"DD omitted important point: THEY LIKE THESTOCK ???","text":"DD omitted important point: THEY LIKE THESTOCK ???","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/378730302","repostId":"1104169549","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1104169549","pubTimestamp":1618976594,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1104169549?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-21 11:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The False Narratives Surrounding AMC Entertainment","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1104169549","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"The oft-told story around AMC stock doesn't match the facts.\n\nThere is a bull case forAMC Entertainm","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>The oft-told story around AMC stock doesn't match the facts.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>There is a bull case for<b>AMC Entertainment</b>(NYSE:<b><u>AMC</u></b>) stock. To be clear, I don’t subscribe to that case. But as with nearly every stock out there, a reasonable investor can make a case for being long.</p>\n<p>The end of the novel coronavirus pandemic should boost the company’s revenue after an abysmal 2020. Bulls believe that the “death of the movie theater” narrative amid the explosion of streaming services such as<b>Netflix</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>NFLX</u></b>) is overwrought.</p>\n<p>There’s even the possibility of a long-term<i>benefit</i>to the business from the pandemic on the competitive front. Smaller, less-capitalized theatres have gone out of business for good. Just in Los Angeles, permanent closures have taken some300 screens out of circulation.</p>\n<p>Indeed, earlier this month one analystupgraded AMC stock. He argued that the performance of<i>Godzilla vs. Kong</i>shows significant pent-up demand for in-theatre viewing, and bodes well for AMC’s recovery going forward. Indeed, if, thanks to competitor closures, AMC can capture more of that demand in a less-supplied market, there’s an argument for further upside in the stock.</p>\n<p>Again, I don’t subscribe to that bull case. But I’ll grant that it’s reasonable. And I’ll grant that, like every investor, I’ve been wrong before and will be wrong again.</p>\n<p>But if you’re going to own AMC stock, you need a real thesis. Too many bull cases of late lack that thesis, with many based on three particularly faulty narratives.</p>\n<p><b>Where Was WSB?</b></p>\n<p>The narrative around AMC stock is usually entangled with the short sellers in the stock. In late January, AMC rallied along with<b>GameStop</b>(NYSE:<b><u>GME</u></b>) on hopes of a so-called “short squeeze.” Since then, it hasn’t been hard to find vitriolic comments about “the shorts” and their menace to AMC and other stocks. And we’ve seen AMC stockholders hailed as something close to heroes for saving the company from the evil shorts.</p>\n<p>It’s too difficult at this point (and at the least would take too long) to disabuse some of the beliefs around short sellers as a whole. So let’s focus on how that narrative fails for AMC stock itself.</p>\n<p>First, AMC shareholders aren’t “saving” the company. If anything, they were late to the party.</p>\n<p>See, for instance, this Tweet which claimed the January rally allowed the companyto raise $900 millionand got over 16,000 likes. In fact, the capital raises came before the“Reddit rally,”and sent AMC stock to an all-time low.</p>\n<p>AMC needed a higher share price during the pandemic, when it was facing real risk of bankruptcy. WallStreetBets was nowhere to be found.</p>\n<p><b>The Short Squeeze in AMC Stock</b></p>\n<p>Second, a short squeeze is not an investing thesis. It’s a trading thesis. In fact, we’ve already seen this in AMC stock.</p>\n<p>If you believe that the January rally was a short squeeze (and I’ve argued it was in fact a“gamma squeeze”), what happened afterward? AMC stock plunged. It’s still down more than 50% from the highs.</p>\n<p>That’s not a surprise. That’s literally how it works.</p>\n<p>Shorts are forced to cover at<i>artificially</i>high prices. Once they do so, there are no buyers left at the highs. And the stock falls.</p>\n<p>That assumes another squeeze is likely. The data suggests otherwise.</p>\n<p>Short interest in AMC stock as of this writing is about 73 million shares. That’s about 31% of the float — a reasonably high number, admittedly.</p>\n<p>But short interest is also less than half average daily volume over the past three months. The idea that shorts are going to get “trapped” amid so much volume thus seems like a pipe dream.</p>\n<p>Even if it does happen, the point is to get out at the top. It’s to sell at $20 in January — not to own at $9 in April. Long-term investors who truly believe in AMC shouldn’t be hoping for a short squeeze. They should be hoping for a lower price to boost returns over time.</p>\n<p><b>The Pandemic Problem</b></p>\n<p>Finally, there’s a narrative that AMC stock is going to rise because AMC’s results are going to improve.</p>\n<p>That improvement is unquestionably coming. Revenue declined 77% year-over-year in 2020, obviously driven by closures due to the novel coronavirus pandemic.</p>\n<p>But AMC stock is pricing in a lot of improvement, and not just because it’s rallied 336% so far this year.</p>\n<p>Go back to the end of 2019. AMC had 104 million shares outstanding (roughly split between Class A and Class B). It closed the year with a stock price of $7.24, for a market capitalization around $750 million. Adddebt net of cashof $4.49 billion, and AMC’s enterprise value was $5.24 billion.</p>\n<p>As of Mar. 3, AMC had 450.2 million shares outstanding. Its market capitalization thus is $4.35 billion — nearly six times what it was at the end of 2019, obviously before the pandemic arrives. Add in net debt of $5.41 billion&nbsp;and AMC’s enterprise value is now $9.76 billion.</p>\n<p>Including debt, AMC’s valuation is nearly 90% higher than it was before the pandemic arrived. In fact, its valuation in 2021 is far higher than it’s<i>ever been</i>going back to its late 2013 initial public offering.</p>\n<p>So if an investor argues that the pandemic is going to lead AMC stock higher from here, they have to explain how AMC’s outlook is better in 2021 than it was in, say, 2015. It’s hard to see how that’s the case.</p>\n<p>The long-term trend of declining movie theater attendance remains. AMC’s debt load is higher, thanks to cash burned last year.</p>\n<p>Netflix has been joined by<b>Disney</b>(NYSE:<b><u>DIS</u></b>) and<b>AT&amp;T</b>(NYSE:<b><u>T</u></b>), among many others, to launch streaming platforms. Those platforms have driven an explosion in content spend that creates television series that are as good or better than movies.</p>\n<p>An investor can dispute these points, certainly. At this valuation, they’d better.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The False Narratives Surrounding AMC Entertainment</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\">\nThe False Narratives Surrounding AMC Entertainment\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-21 11:43 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/04/three-false-narratives-surrounding-amc-stock/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The oft-told story around AMC stock doesn't match the facts.\n\nThere is a bull case forAMC Entertainment(NYSE:AMC) stock.

Can you imagine when we get the all-clear and start moving back toward normalcy?\"</p>\n<p>But three months into the year, Andersen is glum. In an interview last week, he talked about the way big segments of the market seem to be in favor one day, out the next. \"We toggle between value and growth, stay-at-home and re-opening, almost daily,\" he said. \"I don't know who is driving this, but it must be following some kind of algorithm.\"</p>\n<p>Andersen is trying to be patient, recognizing that the economy is at a once-in-a-generation inflection point and that everyone is operating in unprecedented conditions. Still, he said, the financial markets sometimes feel like a house of cards.</p>\n<p>\"It's confounding,\" he said. \"The market is fragile, and surprisingly so. This whole year for me has been really challenging to try to figure out is there any momentum, what direction is it going in and what's responsible for it.\"</p>\n<p>As if the horrors of the global coronavirus pandemic weren't enough of a curveball, the past 12 months have thrown up a slew of other headwinds against smooth market sailing. There's the surge of retail traders bent on using the stock market as a gambling casino , and a national politics so bitter that the presidential election turned bloody.</p>\n<p>And that's not even counting the more existential questions: what's the right level for a stock market that plunged 33% in about two weeks just a year ago? How much of that gain comes down to policy stimulus and how much is real? How much of the expected economic rebound is already priced in? What happens if the vaccine promise falls short? What if this is as good as it gets?</p>\n<p>Taken together, it leaves people who manage money, their clients, and the companies that advise them, just as befuddled as Andersen, with almost as many perceived red flags as there are theories as to what's causing it all.</p>\n<p>\"The most common observation we get from clients is that markets don't \"feel right\", and we absolutely get that,\" wrote Nicholas Colas, co-founder of DataTrek Research, in a recent note. \"For us, a big piece of this unease comes from the novelty of seeing capital markets go from distress to euphoria in such a short period of time.\"</p>\n<p>Market observers point to all manner of weird quirks that seem to confirm something is askew. Among other things, trading volumes have plunged to start 2021.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0fb6bad128839dbcf6e9ba87c8620e88\" tg-width=\"647\" tg-height=\"426\"></p>\n<p>To be sure, the elevated volumes in 2020 were just that -- an outlier. But by some estimates, inexperienced amateur traders now make up as much as 20% of all volume in the markets. And even if all of them aren't out gunning for short-sellers, they still have very different priorities and incentives than much of the rest of the market.</p>\n<p>Also unsettling was the spike U.S. Treasury yields in only a few weeks in the first quarter this year, spooking stock-market investors, followed by several weeks of Federal Reserve policymakers reassuring markets that any interest rate rises wouldn't start until 2023 and would be telegraphed well in advance. Strangely then, rosy economic data seemingly caused bond yields to plunge in mid-April.</p>\n<p>\"Other weird stuff is going on,\" mused Evercore ISI's Dennis DeBusschere, in a note attempting to explain the government-bond rally. \"SPAC's and Solar are getting hit hard on a relative basis, which is odd given the move lower in 10 year yields. Some are citing that the retail investor-sponsored names are getting hit in general as they move away from the market. And why are homebuilders underperforming with 10 year yields collapsing?\"</p>\n<p>Dave Nadig is a long-time student of market structure, including as one of the first developers of exchange-traded funds to help markets avoid another blow-up like 1987's Black Monday.</p>\n<p>Nadig thinks markets are healthy -- that is, working efficiently and staying resilient, even through hiccups like the meme-stock rampage in the past couple of months and the Archegos family office blow-up. What's become \"very fragile,\" in his words, is price discovery.</p>\n<p>\"There are some fundamental underpinnings of how markets work that are dissolving,\" he said in an interview. \"What we're realizing is that there's a lot more noise and randomness in the market than people are willing to admit. Mostly what's changed is information flow and data moving faster and faster. Any model you build today by definition fails to take into account an acceleration tomorrow.\"</p>\n<p>Take the Gamestop Corp. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GME\">$(GME)$</a>frenzy that erupted in January . After a group of disgruntled traders spent several weeks targeting short sellers by driving the price of that stock higher, \"It's no longer a normal stock -- it's an externality in the market that has ripple effects some investors may not even be aware of,\" Nadig said.</p>\n<p>Older investing models -- and algorithms -- are bumping up against new ones that take into account new conditions, a process Nadig calls \"an arms race,\" and one that's accelerated because of the modern speed of information flow and reaction functions.</p>\n<p>\"We're starting to see cracks in the traditional ways we've always analyzed markets,\" he said. \"We're no longer processing reality, we're processing information, and it gets priced in instantaneously. We've given up on analyzing.\"</p>\n<p>That means that a headline, say, about a pause in the use of Johnson &amp; Johnson's COVID-19 vaccine shares trade lower, Nadig said. It means that for that day, the entire \"re-opening\" trade -- and by extension, some cyclical trades and some value plays -- suffers.</p>\n<p>For Peter Andersen, who's managed money for nearly three decades and returned more than 40% for his clients in each of the the past two years, the market's fragility is frustrating. Andersen prides himself on \"fierce independence\" in stock selection that results in a macro-agnostic portfolio. Some of his recent investments have been in cybersecurity, data storage, and pet care.</p>\n<p>In the year to date, however, one of Andersen's top picks, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TRUP\">Trupanion</a> Inc.

For instance, the benchmark <b>S&amp;P 500</b> has delivered an average annual total return, including dividends, of greater than 10% since the beginning of 1980. Keep in mind this includes the dot-com bubble, the Great Recession, and the coronavirus crash.</p>\n<p>But in recent years, it's been cryptocurrencies that've run circles around equities. Young investors, in particular, have been drawn to the decentralized and unregulated nature of digital currencies, as well as the neck-breaking volatility that often comes with owning crypto.</p>\n<h2>Dogecoin is flying, but you're foolish if you're buying</h2>\n<p>For much of the past week, it's cryptocurrency <b>Dogecoin</b> (CRYPTO:DOGE) that's been garnering the attention of momentum players, retail investors, and digital currency enthusiasts. As of late afternoon Friday, April 16, Dogecoin could be purchased for about $0.31 per token. For context, it began the week at $0.07, and is higher by more than 15,400% over the trailing year. That would top the gain of every single publicly traded stock over the past year.</p>\n<p>If you're wondering why Dogecoin has been on fire, it looks to be a combination of tweets/pumping from Elon Musk, the CEO of <b>Tesla Motors</b>, and technical moves, which take into account volume and chart patterns.</p>\n<p>However, the story behind Dogecoin and its real-world utility are major red flags that true investors should be aware of. For instance, two engineers created Dogecoin in 2013 in a matter of hours as a joke. The idea was to combine the two buzziest things on the internet at the time -- a Shiba Inu dog meme and the cryptocurrency craze -- into a single entity. Thus was born Dogecoin.</p>\n<p>Dogecoin lacks substantive differentiation, relative to other digital currencies, and it has extremely limited utility. According to <i>International Business Times</i> via Dogecoins.com, 48 businesses accept Dogecoin. Meanwhile, online company directory Cryptwerk listed in the neighborhood of 1,200 place, stores, and services accepting Dogecoin, as of April 16.</p>\n<p>But here's a number to keep in mind: There are more than 32 million businesses in the U.S. alone. Further, according to <i>The Hill</i>, there are an estimated 582 million entrepreneurs worldwide. About 1,200 of these businesses, at most, accept Dogecoin. That's how minimal the utility is.</p>\n<h2>This trio of stocks make for much smarter investments than Dogecoin</h2>\n<p>Rather than throwing your hard-earned money at a pump-and-dump asset like Dogecoin, consider putting your money to work in the following three much smarter buys.</p>\n<h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRM\">Salesforce</a>.com</h2>\n<p>A considerably smarter way of putting your money to work right now would be to buy shares of cloud-based customer relationship management (CRM) software provider <b>salesforce.com</b> (NYSE:CRM). Despite its megacap size ($214 billion market cap), it offers sustainable sales growth of 20% or higher for the next half-decade, if not longer.</p>\n<p>For those unfamiliar, CRM software is used by consumer-facing businesses to handle tasks like logging customer information and overseeing service or product issues. It's also handy when managing online marketing campaigns and as a predictive tool for suggesting new products and services to existing clients based on their buying history or other metrics. CRM software makes a lot of sense for the retail and service industries, but is finding plenty of momentum in nontraditional places, such as banks and hospitals.</p>\n<p>What makes salesforce such a beast is the company's utter dominance of global CRM revenue. In the first half of 2020, IDC estimated that salesforce controlled just shy of 20% of global CRM revenue. That was more than No.'s 2 through 5 on its global share list, combined. This makes salesforce the logical go-to for big businesses looking to incorporate CRM software.</p>\n<p>Salesforce is also in the process of acquiring enterprise-focused communications platform <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WORK\">Slack Technologies</a></b>&nbsp;in a cash-and-stock deal that was valued at $27.7 billion when it was announced. If this deal closes, salesforce will be able to use Slack's platform as a jumping-off point to cross-sell to smaller businesses. This'll be its key to reaching $50 billion in annual sales in five years.</p>\n<h2>Jushi Holdings</h2>\n<p>Marijuana stocks are arguably <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the most overcrowded trades at the moment -- and for good reason. According to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NFC.U\">New Frontier</a> Data, weed sales in the U.S. are expected to grow by 21% annually between 2019 and 2025, ultimately hitting $41.5 billion by mid-decade. One of the smartest ways to take advantage of this growth is with small-cap multistate operator (MSO) <b>Jushi Holdings</b> (OTC:JUSHF).</p>\n<p>Jushi's growth strategy is a bit different from most MSOs. Instead of trying to plant its proverbial flag in as many states as possible, Jushi is focusing most of its effort in three states: Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Virginia. The common theme is that all three states limit how they assign retail licenses. Pennsylvania and Illinois cap the number of allowable retail stores, while Virginia assigns dispensary licenses by jurisdiction. Put another way, 80% or more of Jushi's revenue will come from markets where competition will be limited or nonexistent. It's a smart strategy that'll allow Jushi to effectively build up its brand and gain a following.</p>\n<p>Despite its small size, Jushi has not been afraid to go shopping. It's acquired assets in Pennsylvania and Virginia to expand its presence in these core states, and has used acquisitions to gain a footprint in the California and Nevada markets. California is the largest cannabis market in the world by annual sales, while Nevada is expected to lead the nation in cannabis spending per capita by 2024.</p>\n<p>As <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> final note, roughly $45 million of the first $250 million in capital raised by the company came from insiders and executives. When the interests (and wallets) of execs line up with their shareholders, good things tend to happen.</p>\n<h2>Pinterest</h2>\n<p>A third stock that's a considerably smarter buy than Dogecoin is social media up-and-comer <b>Pinterest</b> (NYSE:PINS).</p>\n<p>To state the obvious, Pinterest had a great 2020. With the pandemic keeping people in their homes, many turned to social sites for engagement. This included Pinterest, which picked up a net of 124 million monthly active users (MAU) last year. But understand that Pinterest was wooing new MAUs long before the pandemic struck. In the three years preceding the pandemic, net MAU growth averaged 30%, compared to the 37% MAU growth recorded in 2020.</p>\n<p>What's notable about the users Pinterest is attracting is that they're predominantly from international markets. More than 90% of the 124 million net MAUs gained in 2020 were from outside the United States. On one hand, average revenue per user (ARPU) is considerably lower outside the U.S., meaning Pinterest isn't generating a lot of revenue from the new users it's picking up. However, it also gives the company ample opportunity to grow its international ARPU significantly this decade. As more international users sign up, ad dollars will climb to reach these users.</p>\n<p>Best of all, we're witnessing the early stages of what could be an absolute e-commerce giant.

This makes Pinterest one of the most-targeted platforms on the planet for merchants that can meet these interests.

For instance, the benchmark S&P 500 has delivered an average annual total return, including dividends, of greater than 10% since the beginning of 1980. Keep in mind this includes the dot-com bubble, the Great Recession, and the coronavirus crash.\nBut in recent years, it's been cryptocurrencies that've run circles around equities. Young investors, in particular, have been drawn to the decentralized and unregulated nature of digital currencies, as well as the neck-breaking volatility that often comes with owning crypto.\nDogecoin is flying, but you're foolish if you're buying\nFor much of the past week, it's cryptocurrency Dogecoin (CRYPTO:DOGE) that's been garnering the attention of momentum players, retail investors, and digital currency enthusiasts. As of late afternoon Friday, April 16, Dogecoin could be purchased for about $0.31 per token. For context, it began the week at $0.07, and is higher by more than 15,400% over the trailing year. That would top the gain of every single publicly traded stock over the past year.\nIf you're wondering why Dogecoin has been on fire, it looks to be a combination of tweets/pumping from Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla Motors, and technical moves, which take into account volume and chart patterns.\nHowever, the story behind Dogecoin and its real-world utility are major red flags that true investors should be aware of. For instance, two engineers created Dogecoin in 2013 in a matter of hours as a joke. The idea was to combine the two buzziest things on the internet at the time -- a Shiba Inu dog meme and the cryptocurrency craze -- into a single entity. Thus was born Dogecoin.\nDogecoin lacks substantive differentiation, relative to other digital currencies, and it has extremely limited utility. According to International Business Times via Dogecoins.com, 48 businesses accept Dogecoin. Meanwhile, online company directory Cryptwerk listed in the neighborhood of 1,200 place, stores, and services accepting Dogecoin, as of April 16.\nBut here's a number to keep in mind: There are more than 32 million businesses in the U.S. alone. Further, according to The Hill, there are an estimated 582 million entrepreneurs worldwide. About 1,200 of these businesses, at most, accept Dogecoin. That's how minimal the utility is.\nThis trio of stocks make for much smarter investments than Dogecoin\nRather than throwing your hard-earned money at a pump-and-dump asset like Dogecoin, consider putting your money to work in the following three much smarter buys.\nSalesforce.com\nA considerably smarter way of putting your money to work right now would be to buy shares of cloud-based customer relationship management (CRM) software provider salesforce.com (NYSE:CRM). Despite its megacap size ($214 billion market cap), it offers sustainable sales growth of 20% or higher for the next half-decade, if not longer.\nFor those unfamiliar, CRM software is used by consumer-facing businesses to handle tasks like logging customer information and overseeing service or product issues. It's also handy when managing online marketing campaigns and as a predictive tool for suggesting new products and services to existing clients based on their buying history or other metrics. CRM software makes a lot of sense for the retail and service industries, but is finding plenty of momentum in nontraditional places, such as banks and hospitals.\nWhat makes salesforce such a beast is the company's utter dominance of global CRM revenue. In the first half of 2020, IDC estimated that salesforce controlled just shy of 20% of global CRM revenue. That was more than No.'s 2 through 5 on its global share list, combined. This makes salesforce the logical go-to for big businesses looking to incorporate CRM software.\nSalesforce is also in the process of acquiring enterprise-focused communications platform Slack Technologies in a cash-and-stock deal that was valued at $27.7 billion when it was announced. If this deal closes, salesforce will be able to use Slack's platform as a jumping-off point to cross-sell to smaller businesses. This'll be its key to reaching $50 billion in annual sales in five years.\nJushi Holdings\nMarijuana stocks are arguably one of the most overcrowded trades at the moment -- and for good reason. According to New Frontier Data, weed sales in the U.S. are expected to grow by 21% annually between 2019 and 2025, ultimately hitting $41.5 billion by mid-decade. One of the smartest ways to take advantage of this growth is with small-cap multistate operator (MSO) Jushi Holdings (OTC:JUSHF).\nJushi's growth strategy is a bit different from most MSOs. Instead of trying to plant its proverbial flag in as many states as possible, Jushi is focusing most of its effort in three states: Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Virginia. The common theme is that all three states limit how they assign retail licenses. Pennsylvania and Illinois cap the number of allowable retail stores, while Virginia assigns dispensary licenses by jurisdiction. Put another way, 80% or more of Jushi's revenue will come from markets where competition will be limited or nonexistent. It's a smart strategy that'll allow Jushi to effectively build up its brand and gain a following.\nDespite its small size, Jushi has not been afraid to go shopping. It's acquired assets in Pennsylvania and Virginia to expand its presence in these core states, and has used acquisitions to gain a footprint in the California and Nevada markets. California is the largest cannabis market in the world by annual sales, while Nevada is expected to lead the nation in cannabis spending per capita by 2024.\nAs one final note, roughly $45 million of the first $250 million in capital raised by the company came from insiders and executives. When the interests (and wallets) of execs line up with their shareholders, good things tend to happen.\nPinterest\nA third stock that's a considerably smarter buy than Dogecoin is social media up-and-comer Pinterest (NYSE:PINS).\nTo state the obvious, Pinterest had a great 2020. With the pandemic keeping people in their homes, many turned to social sites for engagement. This included Pinterest, which picked up a net of 124 million monthly active users (MAU) last year. But understand that Pinterest was wooing new MAUs long before the pandemic struck. In the three years preceding the pandemic, net MAU growth averaged 30%, compared to the 37% MAU growth recorded in 2020.\nWhat's notable about the users Pinterest is attracting is that they're predominantly from international markets. More than 90% of the 124 million net MAUs gained in 2020 were from outside the United States. On one hand, average revenue per user (ARPU) is considerably lower outside the U.S., meaning Pinterest isn't generating a lot of revenue from the new users it's picking up. However, it also gives the company ample opportunity to grow its international ARPU significantly this decade. As more international users sign up, ad dollars will climb to reach these users.\nBest of all, we're witnessing the early stages of what could be an absolute e-commerce giant. Think about it this way: Pinterest's user base is willingly sharing the things, places, and services that interest them. This makes Pinterest one of the most-targeted platforms on the planet for merchants that can meet these interests. As long as Pinterest can keep its user base engaged, it should have no problem generating huge returns over the long run for investors.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":519,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":373318608,"gmtCreate":1618821300904,"gmtModify":1704715340718,"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It’s a well liked stock!","listText":"It’s a well liked stock!","text":"It’s a well liked stock!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/373318608","repostId":"2128857317","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2128857317","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1618820938,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2128857317?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-19 16:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"'Roaring Kitty' acquires more shares in GameStop - Bloomberg","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2128857317","media":"Reuters","summary":"GameStop stock surged more than 5% in premarket trading.The man known as \"Roaring Kitty\" on social m","content":"<p>GameStop stock surged more than 5% in premarket trading.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d62c20c2c230a3a78bbd6e552827f09b\" tg-width=\"1302\" tg-height=\"833\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>The man known as \"Roaring Kitty\" on social media, whose online posts helped spark January's trading frenzy in GameStop Corp   , exercised call options on the stock to acquire 50,000 more shares at a strike price of $12, Bloomberg reported.</p><p>Bloomberg cited a screenshot of Keith Gill's portfolio showing that he exercised 500 GameStop call options expiring Friday, when the stock closed at $154.69.</p><p>The screenshots were posted on Reddit by Gill, and his mother confirmed the posts to Bloomberg.

Meanwhile, Sundial and Zomedica have traded as high as $12 and $3, respectively, within the past couple of years.</p>\n<p>The issue with this argument is that share price alone provides no context into a company's relative valuation without taking outstanding shares into account.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9a9b323ff30faa3ac6ab8223b047381\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"461\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<p>For example, when AMC Entertainment's share price topped $35 in late 2016, its market cap neared, but never crossed, the $4 billion market-cap threshold. Today, with AMC's share price at $8.62, it boasts a market cap of close to $4.3 billion.</p>\n<p>Put another way, its share price has declined by around 75% since late 2016, but its market cap has grown by roughly 15%, all because the company's outstanding share count has ballooned higher. In reality, AMC has been historically <i>pricier</i> over the past two months than at any other time in its publicly traded history.</p>\n<p>The same can be said for Sundial. Shortly after it became a public company, shares of Sundial hit $12, equating to a $1.1 billion market cap. Today, shares of Sundial are going for $0.93, yet the market cap is around $1.54 billion.</p>\n<p>In less than two years, Sundial's share count has grown from less than 100 million to 1.66 billion outstanding. As a result, it's a pricier company now, at less than $1 a share, than it was when it had a $12 share price.</p>\n<p>To round things out, the same is true for Zomedica. In June 2018, when the company's share price quickly jumped to about $3, its market cap hit approximately $275 million. Today, with a $1.12 share price, Zomedica's market cap is nearly four times as high ($1.08 billion). In less than three years, Zomedica's outstanding share count has rocketed from a little over 90 million to 947.3 million. At no point in its history has Zomedica been this pricey.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a7820c1f47b166de46066a8218fa6556\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>More bad news: They're fundamental and/or balance sheet disasters, too</h3>\n<p>To make matters worse, it's not just that retail investors are bypassing a company's outstanding share count when making a determination if it's cheap. They're also overlooking some very serious operating or balance sheet flaws.</p>\n<p>For instance, Zomedica was a clinical-stage company until the first commercial sale of its Truforma diagnostics system for companion animals in mid-March. Although Zomedica now has plenty of cash to fund its research for years to come, it's a billion-dollar stock that began generating revenue less than a month ago. This would seem to be an extremely aggressive valuation for a company that's nowhere near profitability.</p>\n<p>As for Sundial Growers, it has plenty of cash -- $719 million Canadian, or $572 million U.S. -- but its management team has no concrete plans how to use it. What's more, the company recently authorized an at-the-market program that could see another $800 million worth of shares sold. After issuing 1.15 billion shares in five months, Sundial isn't quite done pummeling its investors. And the icing on the cake is that the company is one of the slowest-growing in the cannabis space.</p>\n<p>Lastly, there's AMC, which I've argued is the most dangerous Reddit stock of all. Whereas Zomedica and Sundial each have a sizable net cash position, AMC is sitting on $11 billion in convertible and non-convertible debt. By 2026, $7.2 billion of this debt comes due, $6 billion of which can't be converted into shares. With the company unlikely to be profitable for years and strangled by its debt, it'll need shareholders to authorize a huge increase in its outstanding share count next month to have any chance at long-term survival.</p>\n<p>The point I'm trying to make is this: Operating results and balance sheets always matter.

The demand for movie theaters will not come close to pre-pandemic levels for at least the next two years. AMC stock has had a wild ride in 2021, but it does not look promising going forward.</p><p>People will be keen on engaging in other social activities that they have avoided for a year now. We have already spent a lot of time indoors, and given a choice, I would always prefer heading outdoors and meeting people instead of sitting in a packed space watching a movie.</p><p>Even if that does not happen and consumers return to the theaters, there is something seriously wrong with AMC stock. I am definitely bearish on the stock. With that said, let’s take a look at the investment case for AMC stock.</p><p><b>Massive Share Dilution</b></p><p>At the end of 2019, AMC had103 million shares. Then, the pandemic hit, and the company was sinking. It had to push cash in the business to survive. Hence, by the end of the third quarter, there were 107.7. million shares held by the company, and it hasn’t stopped since then. Investors must understand the magnitude of share dilution and its impact on their holding.</p><p>AMC is burning cash to stay afloat, but the cash is coming from share dilution. In September, it announced an equity offer that allowed dilution of shares by selling new stock whenever the need arises. It has raised more than 300 million new shares and 44.4 million shares through debt conversion.</p><p>Currently, the company has 450 million outstanding shares. Heavy dilution is risky, and it makes no sense from a business perspective. If you already own AMC stock, your share in the company is likely much lower today than it was when you bought in. Furthermore, the company is not generating profits, and shareholders can only hope that the company survives the storm so they do not lose all their money.</p><p>AMC Entertainment pays about$350 million in interest expenses, and it is only rising. This month, the company has asked the shareholders for approval of asale of 500 million new shares. This will lead to further dilution. Given the fact that the company has been practicing the same for the past few months, the idea does not sound crazy. But for investors, it is a crazy ride.</p><p>All in all, the company has raised more than $2.2 billion in equity and debt,sold over $80 million in assets&nbsp;and converted $600 million of debt in equity. It held $1 billion in cash at the end of February this year.</p><p>Even if customers return to the theaters and the company starts to generate revenue, the share dilution could mean a big problem for shareholders. Management needs to limit the sale of new shares and try to look for alternative options to raise funds. If the company continues to dilute shares, it may not have enough cash for the coming year.</p><p><b>The Bottom Line on AMC stock</b></p><p>From a fundamental standpoint, AMC looks risky. The company had a flat revenue in 2019, and it has not been able to generate profits in the last two years. It is far away from getting back to where it was.</p><p>The company is also facing stiff competition from streaming platforms, and consumers have gotten used to enjoying their favorite movies from the comfort of their homes. It will continue to operate at a lesser capacity in the theaters, but the operating costs will keep piling up. AMC also has heavy interest liability.</p><p>I remain skeptical about the company being able to weather the storm amidst the pandemic. I do not think that the company will be able to gain stability or make money for the next two years. For those reasons, it’s best to avoid AMC stock.</p>","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Investing in AMC Entertainment Is Risky At Best</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\">\nInvesting in AMC Entertainment Is Risky At Best\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-15 21:51 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/04/investing-in-amc-stock-is-risky-at-best/><strong>InvestorPlace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Due to heavy dilution of shares, AMC stock may not generate returns for shareholders.AMC stock gained about 7% in Thursday morning  trading.The entertainment industry has suffered the most in the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2021/04/investing-in-amc-stock-is-risky-at-best/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AMC":"AMC院线"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2021/04/investing-in-amc-stock-is-risky-at-best/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1169323233","content_text":"Due to heavy dilution of shares, AMC stock may not generate returns for shareholders.AMC stock gained about 7% in Thursday morning  trading.The entertainment industry has suffered the most in the pandemic and despite reopening 98% of its locations, the road ahead forAMC Entertainment(NYSE:AMC) looks bumpy.

I am definitely bearish on the stock. With that said, let’s take a look at the investment case for AMC stock.Massive Share DilutionAt the end of 2019, AMC had103 million shares. Then, the pandemic hit, and the company was sinking. It had to push cash in the business to survive. Hence, by the end of the third quarter, there were 107.7. million shares held by the company, and it hasn’t stopped since then. Investors must understand the magnitude of share dilution and its impact on their holding.AMC is burning cash to stay afloat, but the cash is coming from share dilution. In September, it announced an equity offer that allowed dilution of shares by selling new stock whenever the need arises. It has raised more than 300 million new shares and 44.4 million shares through debt conversion.Currently, the company has 450 million outstanding shares. Heavy dilution is risky, and it makes no sense from a business perspective. If you already own AMC stock, your share in the company is likely much lower today than it was when you bought in. Furthermore, the company is not generating profits, and shareholders can only hope that the company survives the storm so they do not lose all their money.AMC Entertainment pays about$350 million in interest expenses, and it is only rising. This month, the company has asked the shareholders for approval of asale of 500 million new shares. This will lead to further dilution. Given the fact that the company has been practicing the same for the past few months, the idea does not sound crazy. But for investors, it is a crazy ride.All in all, the company has raised more than $2.2 billion in equity and debt,sold over $80 million in assets and converted $600 million of debt in equity. It held $1 billion in cash at the end of February this year.Even if customers return to the theaters and the company starts to generate revenue, the share dilution could mean a big problem for shareholders. Management needs to limit the sale of new shares and try to look for alternative options to raise funds. If the company continues to dilute shares, it may not have enough cash for the coming year.The Bottom Line on AMC stockFrom a fundamental standpoint, AMC looks risky. The company had a flat revenue in 2019, and it has not been able to generate profits in the last two years. It is far away from getting back to where it was.The company is also facing stiff competition from streaming platforms, and consumers have gotten used to enjoying their favorite movies from the comfort of their homes. It will continue to operate at a lesser capacity in the theaters, but the operating costs will keep piling up. AMC also has heavy interest liability.I remain skeptical about the company being able to weather the storm amidst the pandemic. I do not think that the company will be able to gain stability or make money for the next two years. For those reasons, it’s best to avoid AMC stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":220,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":341421309,"gmtCreate":1617848238501,"gmtModify":1704703893145,"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Why the heck are they reporting on a deleted post?","listText":"Why the heck are they reporting on a deleted post?","text":"Why the heck are they reporting on a deleted post?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/341421309","repostId":"1174483246","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1174483246","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1617802574,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1174483246?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-07 21:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Reddit crowd reigniting momentum?SOS Limited surged 33% in morning trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1174483246","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"SOS Limited surged 33% in Wednesday morning trading.SOS was actively traded stock today with over 64","content":"<p>SOS Limited surged 33% in Wednesday morning trading.</p><p>SOS was actively traded stock today with over 64 million shares having already changed hands.

For an example as to why I say this, we need only look at what has been happening with<b>GameStop</b>(NYSE:GME). The company has experienced extreme volatility recently, caused by speculators punishing short sellers. As I stated in a&nbsp;prior article, there was really only one way that the current valuation of the retailer could be justified: if management ultimately issued a significant amount of shares at these lofty prices.

While nothing is set in stone, this could help to justify the company’s high share price, essentially serving as a self-fulfilling prophecy. Absent this, though, investors should still be very cautious about the firm and in all likelihood should brace for shares to fall again.</p>\n<p><b>Some good news, some bad news</b></p>\n<p>And it’s fourth-quarter earnings release for its&nbsp;2020 fiscal year, GameStop reported some rather mixed results. First, let’s start with the&nbsp;headline news. As has been reported elsewhere, the company did mess expectations on both the top and bottom lines. Non-GAAP EPS came in $0.08 below estimates and GAAP EPS came in $0.29 below estimates. Revenue, meanwhile, missed by $110 million. In response to these headlines, shares of the company plummeted March 24th, closing down nearly 34%.</p>\n<p>At first glance, these results compared to expectations look bad. In some ways, when you dig in deeper, the picture worsens. As an example, while net income of $80.5 million with nearly 4 times higher than the $21 million in the same time a year earlier, when you look at earnings from continuing operations, dropped from $68.7 million to $10.6 million. Operating cash flow also suffered, declining from $240.3 million to $164.8 million. In all fairness, for the entire year, operating cash flow did come in stronger. For 2020, the figure was $123.7 million. This compares to a net outflow in 2019 at $414.5 million. However, when you adjust for changes to working capital, operating cash flow actually worsened. In 2019, it totaled $96.3 million. For 2020, we saw a net outflow of $57.3 million. EBITDA, meanwhile, dropped in the fourth quarter from $136.2 million to $50.3 million, and for the year declined from $166.8 million to -$149.4 million.</p>\n<p>Pain was not just on the bottom line though for the company. In fact, a large part of it was caused by March and contraction as revenue plummeted. Caused in part by the COVID-19 pandemic, and also caused by the closure, on the net basis, of 693 stores, revenue dropped from $6.47 billion in 2019 to $5.09 billion in 2020. Management points out that comparable store sales grew 6.5% in the fourth quarter, which beats out the 4.7% analysts anticipated. But if you look at the year as a whole, comparable store sales dropped by 13.9%. One bright spot here is that as the COVID-19 pandemic eventually winds down, investors should expect comparable store sales to see at least a one-time bump higher. One example of this can be seen in the companies February 2021 comparable sales. According to management, this figure came in 23% higher than it was the same time last year.</p>\n<p>One other bright spot that some investors might point to are the sales generated by the company in the fourth quarter. Despite the store account at the company plummeting, revenue dropped by only 3.3%. However, this was masked in a sense by strong hardware sales and accessories sales as console demand for 9th generation devices produced by&nbsp;<b>Microsoft</b>(MSFT) and&nbsp;<b>Sony</b>(SNE) came in strong. This is part of the cycle that occurs every few years when new consoles come out and old ones are parted with or set aside. It should not be viewed as a permanent push higher.</p>\n<p>By most measures, the picture facing GameStop is bad. Especially seeing negative EBITDA. When EBITDA, a figure that management can have great leeway with when calculating, is negative, you know the company in question has problems. That is not to say though that the retailer had nothing but bad news. Truly, there was some great news. First and foremost, we have rising e-commerce revenue. According to management, this figure surged 175% compared to what it was the same time last year. For the fourth quarter of 2020, it was 34% of net sales. This compares to 12% the same time one year earlier. For the year as a whole, sales surged 191%, and in 2020 accounted for 30% of the company’s net revenue. Based on my estimates, this would mean that revenue associated with online sales grew from $799 million in 2019 to $1.53 billion in 2020.</p>\n<p>Another really great thing about the company is that it actually has negative net debt. As of now, the firm has around $635 million in cash. This compares to $362.7 million in debt. So long as cash flows can remain neutral or positive, this implies no real chance of bankruptcy for the firm. Of course, this might be a tall order for a firm that continues to close the number of locations that has in operation. Back in 2016, for instance, the company had 6,132 stores operating. Today, that figure is around 4,816. And of the 693 closed in 2020, 450 are located in the US. Management was basically forced to do this, but even with that happening, net income has been negative in three of the past five years, while comparable store sales have been down and four of the last five years. In fact, aggregate comparable store sales declines over the past five years came out to 31.5%.</p>\n<p>Surely, the shift toward online sales is great for the company in a number of ways. However, that alone will not save the business. Consider console sales over the&nbsp;past several years. And in its lifetime, the PlayStation 2 saw 53.65 million units sold. PlayStation 4 sales, meanwhile, have totaled just 37.36 million. In all, the Xbox One has sold 31.39 million units compared to the 49.11 million units of the Xbox 360 sold. The latest model of Xbox, the Series X, has seen sales so far&nbsp;hit&nbsp;just 2.8 million units, down from the 2.9 million seen the same time period that the Xbox One was out. And despite being an excellent product, the 4.5 million units of the PlayStation 5&nbsp;sold&nbsp;just match the number of PlayStation 4 units sold in their respective first quarters. All of this is occurring despite the fact that video game sales are soaring through the roof. Most of that growth is happening in mobile, and what isn’t occurring there seems to be on the PC and software side. And that is not a category the GameStop thrives in. Even in the fourth quarter of last year, software sales for the company came in 25.7% lower than they were a year earlier.</p>\n<p>One thing that could work out well for the company, if it takes place, would be a significant selling of shares on the market. In releasing its fourth quarter results, the company announced that they might do something with a share issuance, but details have not been provided. In fact, the company has largely been silent on the matter otherwise. With the top and bottom lines of the firm struggling, and a drastic change in business needed, I feel the only way for the company to justify evaluation anywhere near the $8.42 billion that the market has assigned it is to dilute shareholders significantly and to allocate that capital toward new and bold initiatives.</p>\n<p><b>Takeaway</b></p>\n<p>Right now, there are some positive things regarding GameStop. However, the data is mostly negative. While online sales have been a bright spot for the company, it is highly unlikely that they will fully support the firm in the long run. What the company really needs to do a shift toward a software focus where it can specialize in its own content creation, but all the firm has talked about, for the most part when it comes to transforming, involves improving customer service, investing in technology, and other generic things of that nature. With a market capitalization right now of $8.42 billion, management could perhaps make a radical jump toward restructuring the company and justifying its current value if it were to issue a sizable amount of common stock. But, absent that, I still believe shares will move back down to around $20 apiece in the long run.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>GameStop: The Only Thing That Can Stop Another Crash</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\">\nGameStop: The Only Thing That Can Stop Another Crash\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-03-25 22:15 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4415977-gamestop-only-thing-can-stop-another-crash><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nGameStop reported a rather mixed, but mostly bearish, quarter to end out 2020.\nWhile there was some good news, the bad news was significant in nature.\nThe company is worth far less than it’s ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4415977-gamestop-only-thing-can-stop-another-crash\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GME":"游戏驿站"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4415977-gamestop-only-thing-can-stop-another-crash","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1143042915","content_text":"Summary\n\nGameStop reported a rather mixed, but mostly bearish, quarter to end out 2020.\nWhile there was some good news, the bad news was significant in nature.\nThe company is worth far less than it’s trading for, but one thing management revealed could save it from an eventual crash.\n\nPhoto by Spencer Platt/Getty Images News via Getty Images\n2021 is already proving to be a rather interesting year for investors and speculators alike.

Rather, it's retail investors.</p>\n<p>Beginning in mid-January, retail investors on Reddit's WallStreetBets chatroom began banding together to buy shares and call options in stocks with very high levels of short interest. The goal of this strategy was to effect a short squeeze -- i.e., an event where short-sellers (pessimists) flee for the exit all at once, which can cause a rising share price to skyrocket higher.</p>\n<p>Quite a few of the stocks targeted by the Reddit community moved higher, with video game and accessories retailer <b>GameStop</b>&nbsp;representing the face of the retail movement.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9be53e57590b1343cdbc68172a0bac01\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>Bad news: Many of the most popular Reddit stocks are extremely pricey</h3>\n<p>But after three months of retail investors attempting to exert their influence in the market, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> thing has become crystal clear: Their assessment of what's \"cheap\" doesn't make a lot of sense.</p>\n<p>After perusing various social media sites, I've come across three ultra-popular Reddit stocks that the retail investment community believes are cheap or undervalued: movie-theater chain <b>AMC Entertainment</b> (NYSE:AMC), Canadian marijuana stock <b>Sundial Growers</b> (NASDAQ:SNDL), and clinical-stage veterinary drug and diagnostics company <b>Zomedica</b> (NYSEMKT:ZOM).</p>\n<p>While many of the reasons behind their supposed cheapness varies from company to company, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the few constants I've witnessed is the argument that their current share prices are significantly lower than their all-time highs. As of the closing bell on Monday, April 12, a share of AMC, Sundial, and Zomedica could be respectively purchased for $8.62, $0.93, and $1.12.</p>\n<p>For some context here, AMC shares traded north of $35 in late 2016. Meanwhile, Sundial and Zomedica have traded as high as $12 and $3, respectively, within the past couple of years.</p>\n<p>The issue with this argument is that share price alone provides no context into a company's relative valuation without taking outstanding shares into account.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9a9b323ff30faa3ac6ab8223b047381\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"461\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<p>For example, when AMC Entertainment's share price topped $35 in late 2016, its market cap neared, but never crossed, the $4 billion market-cap threshold. Today, with AMC's share price at $8.62, it boasts a market cap of close to $4.3 billion.</p>\n<p>Put another way, its share price has declined by around 75% since late 2016, but its market cap has grown by roughly 15%, all because the company's outstanding share count has ballooned higher. In reality, AMC has been historically <i>pricier</i> over the past two months than at any other time in its publicly traded history.</p>\n<p>The same can be said for Sundial. Shortly after it became a public company, shares of Sundial hit $12, equating to a $1.1 billion market cap. Today, shares of Sundial are going for $0.93, yet the market cap is around $1.54 billion.</p>\n<p>In less than two years, Sundial's share count has grown from less than 100 million to 1.66 billion outstanding. As a result, it's a pricier company now, at less than $1 a share, than it was when it had a $12 share price.</p>\n<p>To round things out, the same is true for Zomedica. In June 2018, when the company's share price quickly jumped to about $3, its market cap hit approximately $275 million. Today, with a $1.12 share price, Zomedica's market cap is nearly four times as high ($1.08 billion). In less than three years, Zomedica's outstanding share count has rocketed from a little over 90 million to 947.3 million. At no point in its history has Zomedica been this pricey.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a7820c1f47b166de46066a8218fa6556\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>More bad news: They're fundamental and/or balance sheet disasters, too</h3>\n<p>To make matters worse, it's not just that retail investors are bypassing a company's outstanding share count when making a determination if it's cheap. They're also overlooking some very serious operating or balance sheet flaws.</p>\n<p>For instance, Zomedica was a clinical-stage company until the first commercial sale of its Truforma diagnostics system for companion animals in mid-March. Although Zomedica now has plenty of cash to fund its research for years to come, it's a billion-dollar stock that began generating revenue less than a month ago. This would seem to be an extremely aggressive valuation for a company that's nowhere near profitability.</p>\n<p>As for Sundial Growers, it has plenty of cash -- $719 million Canadian, or $572 million U.S. -- but its management team has no concrete plans how to use it. What's more, the company recently authorized an at-the-market program that could see another $800 million worth of shares sold. After issuing 1.15 billion shares in five months, Sundial isn't quite done pummeling its investors. And the icing on the cake is that the company is one of the slowest-growing in the cannabis space.</p>\n<p>Lastly, there's AMC, which I've argued is the most dangerous Reddit stock of all. Whereas Zomedica and Sundial each have a sizable net cash position, AMC is sitting on $11 billion in convertible and non-convertible debt. By 2026, $7.2 billion of this debt comes due, $6 billion of which can't be converted into shares. With the company unlikely to be profitable for years and strangled by its debt, it'll need shareholders to authorize a huge increase in its outstanding share count next month to have any chance at long-term survival.</p>\n<p>The point I'm trying to make is this: Operating results and balance sheets always matter. Getting too focused on one metric (short interest) while blatantly ignoring operating or balance sheet red flags can lead to disaster.</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>If You Think AMC, Sundial, and Zomedica Are Cheap, I Have Bad News</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\">\nIf You Think AMC, Sundial, and Zomedica Are Cheap, I Have Bad News\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-16 19:57 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/04/16/if-you-think-amc-sundial-zomedica-cheap-bad-news/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>For the past three months, it's not the pandemic that's been creating all the buzz on Wall Street.

Today, with a $1.12 share price, Zomedica's market cap is nearly four times as high ($1.08 billion). In less than three years, Zomedica's outstanding share count has rocketed from a little over 90 million to 947.3 million. At no point in its history has Zomedica been this pricey.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\nMore bad news: They're fundamental and/or balance sheet disasters, too\nTo make matters worse, it's not just that retail investors are bypassing a company's outstanding share count when making a determination if it's cheap. They're also overlooking some very serious operating or balance sheet flaws.\nFor instance, Zomedica was a clinical-stage company until the first commercial sale of its Truforma diagnostics system for companion animals in mid-March. Although Zomedica now has plenty of cash to fund its research for years to come, it's a billion-dollar stock that began generating revenue less than a month ago. This would seem to be an extremely aggressive valuation for a company that's nowhere near profitability.\nAs for Sundial Growers, it has plenty of cash -- $719 million Canadian, or $572 million U.S. -- but its management team has no concrete plans how to use it. What's more, the company recently authorized an at-the-market program that could see another $800 million worth of shares sold. After issuing 1.15 billion shares in five months, Sundial isn't quite done pummeling its investors. And the icing on the cake is that the company is one of the slowest-growing in the cannabis space.\nLastly, there's AMC, which I've argued is the most dangerous Reddit stock of all. Whereas Zomedica and Sundial each have a sizable net cash position, AMC is sitting on $11 billion in convertible and non-convertible debt. By 2026, $7.2 billion of this debt comes due, $6 billion of which can't be converted into shares. With the company unlikely to be profitable for years and strangled by its debt, it'll need shareholders to authorize a huge increase in its outstanding share count next month to have any chance at long-term survival.\nThe point I'm trying to make is this: Operating results and balance sheets always matter. Getting too focused on one metric (short interest) while blatantly ignoring operating or balance sheet red flags can lead to disaster.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":167,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"content":"Motley fools always speaking up for the HFs ???","text":"Motley fools always speaking up for the HFs ???","html":"Motley fools always speaking up for the HFs ???"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":178067909,"gmtCreate":1626773403801,"gmtModify":1703764924235,"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Keep healthy, stay sane, stay connected.","listText":"Keep healthy, stay sane, stay connected.","text":"Keep healthy, stay sane, stay connected.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/178067909","repostId":"1174094323","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":418,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":320457132,"gmtCreate":1615170706326,"gmtModify":1704779065605,"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"GME to the moon&nbsp;","listText":"GME to the moon&nbsp;","text":"GME to the moon","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/320457132","repostId":"1136643242","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":32,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":100534966,"gmtCreate":1619620588655,"gmtModify":1704726973426,"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"If you start with a billion, that is!","listText":"If you start with a billion, that is!","text":"If you start with a billion, that is!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/100534966","repostId":"1129899601","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129899601","pubTimestamp":1619607898,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1129899601?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-28 19:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Investing in These Stocks Now Could Make You a Millionaire Retiree","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129899601","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"It's much better to be a millionaire retiree than a thousandaire one.

With a stock as volatile as Gamestop, calls can be expensive. Because of that, many traders resort to buying far out of the money calls. That demand for upside calls increases volatility in those calls, making them expensive relative to at-the-money calls – a phenomenon known as skew. However, for those that are bullish, this may create an opportunity to utilize spreads rather than buying an outright call. Let's see how.</p><p>Here we'll focus on one alternative – using debit spreads to lower the overall cost of a directional trade (while potentially improving the probability of profit of the trade itself by lowering the breakeven level). It does so by selling those relatively expensive out-the-money Calls to help finance the purchase of a nearer to at-the-money Call.</p><p>With Gamestop near $105, the&nbsp;<b>March 19th 110/190 Debit Call Spread</b>&nbsp;is roughly $15 and targets the bullish expected move for March 19th. The debit call spread would need the stock to be above $125 on March 19th to be profitable.</p><p>As a comparison, the GME March 19th 200 calls are trading $29. That's nearly twice the cost for a 200 call that needs the stock above $229 by March 19th… versus a call spread, that needs the stock above $125. Here's a side by side comparison of those two trades on the Options AI chart. First, the 200 call:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b044a22bfbe5a8326f9aa3ebf56ed4fd\" tg-width=\"570\" tg-height=\"740\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>And next, the 145/200 debit call spread:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6cdf8545f07da48f770ef81cb4e5ac53\" tg-width=\"569\" tg-height=\"792\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>As you can see, not only is the call spread less expensive, the point at which is becomes profitable to the upside is much closer to where the stock is currently trading. (As indicated by the grey price of the breakeven.)</p><p>A note on probability of profit. The probability of profit displayed on these trades is based on the delta being assigned to the breakeven of the trade. The fact that a 200 call in a $105 stock is trading near 50 deltas shows just how distorting an effect Gamestop volatility is having on its options (hard to borrow, skew, retail demand for out-of-the-money calls).</p><p>Directional Butterflies vs Outright Puts</p><p>High volatility also affects bearish options trades. One of the counter-intuitive aspects of a high volatility stock like Gamestop is that its implied volatility can go up as the stock goes higher and down as the stock goes lower. This is the opposite of how we generally think about volatility. Therefore, buying outright puts carries a risk of collapsing volatility (and therefore collapsing premiums) as the stock goes lower. So, even though the stock is moving in the intended direction, as an option holder you may not be realizing the gains expected.</p><p>One way to counter high implied volatility in a stock, especially when having a bearish view, is to be a net seller of option premium. To sell to bullish option traders rather than join bearish option traders. Traditionally that might take the form of selling a Credit Call Spread. But in GME's case that means buying the (expensive) upper strike Call at a higher volatility than the Call that is closer to the money (as described above).</p><p>So, one option strategy that can be considered by traders is using a Butterfly. An option trade that is more typically associated with a neutral trading view, but here adapted to actually create a targeted (bearish) directional view.</p><p>Here, as an example, is a Butterfly with its center strikes focused at $80 in the stock, with a March 19th expiry:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f7cb8f9b0570e854f662f3031e50ca91\" tg-width=\"573\" tg-height=\"740\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>This 130/80/30 butterfly has breakevens of 115 and 45, meaning the trade is profitable if the stock is between those two prices at March 19th expiry… with a max gain occurring if the stock is at or near $80.

Gill has 200,000 shares in the company, the report said.Gill was a key figure in the so-called \"Reddit rally,\" which saw shares of GameStop surge 400% in a week before crashing back to pre-surge levels.He began sharing his positions on Reddit's popular Wallstreetbets trading forum in September 2019, posting a portfolio screenshot indicating he had invested $53,000 in GameStop.By late January, Gill, known as \"Roaring Kitty\" on YouTube and \"DeepF***ingValue\" on Reddit, was up over 4,000% on stock and options investments in the company.Last month, Gill appeared before Massachusetts securities regulators to testify as part of an examination into his activities.Massachusetts Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin, the state's top securities regulator, had subpoenaed Gill, who touted GameStop stock in his spare time while he was a registered broker and working at the insurer MassMutual.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":192,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":347229958,"gmtCreate":1618497478674,"gmtModify":1704711839541,"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"TLDR: they like the stock","listText":"TLDR: they like the stock","text":"TLDR: they like the stock","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/347229958","repostId":"1169323233","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":220,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":358766750,"gmtCreate":1616732167470,"gmtModify":1704798028563,"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"They like the stock, that’s why","listText":"They like the stock, that’s why","text":"They like the stock, that’s why","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/358766750","repostId":"1112908258","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1112908258","pubTimestamp":1616720506,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1112908258?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-26 09:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Shares of GameStop and AMC Entertainment Skyrocketed","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1112908258","media":"fool","summary":"What happened GameStopandAMC Entertainmentsurged 52% and 21%, respectively, Thursday, helping them r","content":"<p>What happened</p><p>&nbsp;<b>GameStop</b>and<b>AMC Entertainment</b>surged 52% and 21%, respectively, Thursday, helping them recover a significant portion of their recent losses.</p><p>So what</p><p>GameStop'sstockshed a third of its value Wednesday after the video game retailer's fourth-quarter revenue and operating profits fell short of Wall Street's expectations.

Many on Wall Street are worried that the economy will overheat before the Fed pulls back its easy policy stance.\nYields on the 10-year Treasury noteTMUBMUSD10Y,1.734%have risen to 1.73% this week after starting the year below 1%.\nStocks were trading lower on Friday, with the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA,-0.71%down 187 points in mid-morning trading.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":81,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":350589930,"gmtCreate":1616229631220,"gmtModify":1704792351963,"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Instructions unclear, bought more $GME","listText":"Instructions unclear, bought more $GME","text":"Instructions unclear, bought more $GME","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/350589930","repostId":"1128367483","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":29,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":350580478,"gmtCreate":1616229574794,"gmtModify":1704792351477,"author":{"id":"3574805983428726","authorId":"3574805983428726","name":"LeeYuanKew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aa6ccefb04c499ec843ebb0ca258e258","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574805983428726","authorIdStr":"3574805983428726"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Commenting here again&nbsp;","listText":"Commenting here again&nbsp;","text":"Commenting here again","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/350580478","repostId":"1136440314","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1136440314","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1616165231,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1136440314?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-19 22:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Facebook rose more than 4%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1136440314","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"(March 19) Facebook rose more than 4%.Facebook is a strong positive outlier in the S&P 500 today,up ","content":"<p>(March 19)&nbsp;Facebook rose more than 4%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fea58a0f3c9d80d1b9267044a776f39d\" tg-width=\"678\" tg-height=\"520\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p></p><p>Facebook&nbsp;is a strong positive outlier in the S&amp;P 500 today,up 4.08%&nbsp;and gaining (and bouncing back froma slightly decline yesterday) after CEO Mark Zuckerberg looked to change his tune on upcoming privacy changes from Apple.</p><p>Zuckerberg had increasingly taken an adversarial stance against the big-tech rival, but in a new discussion on audio platform Clubhouse, he said thatFacebook may be better off this way.</p><p>\"I think the reality is that I'm confident that we're gonna be able to manage through that situation,\" Zuckerberg said. \"And we'll be in a good position.

Boom","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2111400269","media":"Oilprice","summary":"2020 ushered in the start of the EV boom, but it could have a frightening aftershock.\nWe’re already ","content":"<p>2020 ushered in the start of the EV boom, but it could have a frightening aftershock.</p>\n<p>We’re already seeing some of the incredible triple-digit gains in EV companies like Tesla and Workhorse.</p>\n<p>And this EV wave is only expected to grow bigger in the days ahead under the Biden administration.</p>\n<p>Just a week after inauguration, President Biden reported he plans to replace the entire government fleet with electric vehicles.</p>\n<p>That’s up to 643,000 vehicles turning electric on the government’s dime.</p>\n<p>But Toyota’s president, Akio Toyoda, had an ominous prediction for what could lie ahead.</p>\n<p>He stated that if EVs are adopted too quickly, we may not have the energy to support them at this point.</p>\n<p>In fact, he predicted Japan would run out of electricity by summer if they banned all gas-powered vehicles now.</p>\n<p><b>He even went as far as to say that if we rush the process of transitioning to EVs all at once, “the current business model of the auto industry is going to collapse.”</b></p>\n<p>While the buzz for electric vehicles has only grown over the last year, many often miss this key piece in making such a drastic shift in such a short period.</p>\n<p>And although it’s expected to create plenty of demand for solar, wind, nuclear, and geothermal energy sources…</p>\n<p>At this point in the game, they are still too expensive and lack the storage capacity we’d need for those to be the final solution.</p>\n<p><b>That’s why companies bridging the gap to the EV world are thriving.</b></p>\n<p>Facedrive (TSXV:FD,OTC:FDVRF), a company known for its “people and planet first” approach, has seen incredible success over the last year, for example.</p>\n<p>They recently acquired EV subscription company, Steer, from the largest clean energy producer in the United States.</p>\n<p>Steer’s subscription model for EV cars is putting a major twist on the traditional car ownership model.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/126245cb01e2b0a711cee9e86041666b\" tg-width=\"450\" tg-height=\"176\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>So instead of everyone going out and buying their own EV, they can borrow <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> as-needed instead.</p>\n<p>With Facedrive’s acquisition of Steer, customers pay a simple monthly fee like with Netflix, and they get access to a fleet of EVs at their disposal.</p>\n<p>Over the last year, big moves like this have helped Facedrive sign a number of important partnerships and deals including government agencies, A-list celebrities, and major multinational corporations.</p>\n<p>And they’ve even managed to grow their business throughout the United States and Canada during a time when ridesharing as an industry suffered during global lockdowns.</p>\n<p>When looking at the energy shortage that could lie ahead, it’s likely that creative solutions will be key in bridging the gap to the inevitable EV future.</p>\n<p><b>Smartest in the World Making Bold Predictions</b></p>\n<p>While Toyota’s president made a dark prediction about where we could be headed, he’s not alone in being concerned.</p>\n<p>Elon Musk expressed his own concerns about the issue recently as well.</p>\n<p><b>In an interview in December, he said that the world’s electricity consumption would likely </b><b><i>double </i></b><b>once EVs become the norm.</b></p>\n<p>And that’s only accounting for this mass adoption in electric vehicles.</p>\n<p>The situation could become even more pressing as the rest of our lives grow increasingly digital too, sucking up more electricity in the process.</p>\n<p>With the “internet of things” creating smart cities and smart homes, the demand for electricity will only go up as everything from Peloton bikes to Nest thermostats are now connected by the internet.</p>\n<p>Plus, peak times could cause a real problem if we don’t come up with new energy solutions.</p>\n<p>With thousands of cars on the roads during morning and evening commutes, it’s not hard to imagine times where we simply wouldn’t have enough power to charge all EVs that need it at once.</p>\n<p>Given the speed of innovation and the amount of resources going into renewable energy right now though, this is sure to be a short-term issue until the next great solution is discovered.</p>\n<p><b>But in the meantime, Facedrive’s moves are putting them squarely in position to smooth out the transition.</b></p>\n<p>And in addition to the monthly membership model used with Steer, they’re helping keep the number of cars on the road down through their signature ridesharing service.</p>\n<p>Their model is simple.</p>\n<p>When customers hail a ride, they have the choice to ride in an electric vehicle or a standard gas-powered car.</p>\n<p>After they get to their destination, the Facedrive (TSXV:FD,OTC:FDVRF) algorithm sets aside a portion of the fare to plant trees, offsetting the carbon footprint from the ride.</p>\n<p>In other words, you ride, they plant a tree.</p>\n<p>Through next-gen technology and partnerships, they’re giving their customers the option to make a more eco-friendly choice if they choose.</p>\n<p>Plus, Facedrive has added a booming food delivery service, which has expanded at a record pace while folks were stuck at home during global lockdowns.</p>\n<p>They’re now delivering over 4,100 orders per day on average. And after growing to 19 major cities, they plan to expand to more cities throughout the U.S. and Canada soon.</p>\n<p>It's this kind of innovative thinking that has many so optimistic about the opportunities that lie ahead.</p>\n<p><b>Who Will Win In The EV Boom?</b></p>\n<p>Elon Musk warned that, like with the boom in smartphones, we’re not likely to see the EV revolution all happen at once. Because just like with smartphones, you can’t replace them all at once.</p>\n<p><b>But it’s undeniable that the movement is growing at a remarkable pace.</b></p>\n<p>Even under an administration that was not supportive of climate change and green initiatives, the EV markets have soared throughout 2020.</p>\n<p>Tesla was <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the biggest market stories of the year, locking in over 700% gains on its way to becoming one of the largest companies on the S&amp;P 500.</p>\n<p>And experts are expecting to see massive spending on the infrastructure needed for EVs under the Biden administration too.</p>\n<p>In addition to his vow to spend more on clean energy research, President Biden also reported plans to build out 550,000 EV charging stations across the country.</p>\n<p>With the growth we’ve seen in this area already, it’s also caused shares for companies like Plug Power to soar over 1,000% in 2020.</p>\n<p><b>And Facedrive has been sharing in this success too, with incredible gains of 834% over the last year.</b></p>\n<p>But while they’re helping smooth out the transition to the EV future, they’ve also been busy helping to solve the problems of today.</p>\n<p>Last year, they created a wearable contact tracing technology called TraceSCAN.</p>\n<p>It’s designed to help alert those without cell phones when they’ve been in contact with someone who’s tested positive for COVID-19.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eccc1881977dca15dfa8dcfd6b9d3702\" tg-width=\"234\" tg-height=\"290\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e4a968fd9b9813944bb52def761df3f0\" tg-width=\"180\" tg-height=\"275\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>With wearables gaining widespread adoption since the release of devices like the Fitbit or Apple Watch, the demand for TraceSCAN has erupted in recent months.</p>\n<p>And in the coming weeks, Facedrive plans to release an updated version with key health and safety benefits like temperature checking and vital sign monitoring.</p>\n<p>Facedrive has now signed agreements with government agencies and major airlines to use this technology.</p>\n<p>Plus, they are currently in discussions to continue TraceSCAN’s growth with major multinational corporations.</p>\n<p>After the surge in electric vehicle tech we saw last year, now is the time to plan for the domino effect we could see play out in the days ahead.</p>\n<p>And in the end, it could be the ones helping in the transition that become the biggest winners of the EV boom.</p>\n<p>Here are a few other companies to watch in the EV and EV related space:</p>\n<p><b>Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA)</b> was among the biggest market stories of 2020 with incredible gains of over 700%. This helped them become one of the highest-valued stocks in the United States with other Big Tech giants. It is now the most valuable car maker “of all time”. It is now worth almost $800 billion.</p>\n<p>After a much-touted Battery Day event and expectations of Musk developing a “Million Mile Battery” in the near future, Tesla recently joined the S&amp;P 500.</p>\n<p>Tesla is the de-facto king of the electric vehicle market. And it’s easy to see why. Armed with slick cars, game-changing technology and an out of this world CEO, Tesla has a lot going for it.</p>\n<p>Billionaire Elon Musk had his eye on this trend far before the hype started building. He released the first Tesla Roadster back in 2008, making electric vehicles cool when people were still snubbing their noses at the first-generation EVs. Since then, Tesla’s stock has skyrocketed by over 14,000%. But while Tesla’s EV threat to the industry is clear, the competition is heating up in China.</p>\n<p><b>Nio (NYSE:NIO)</b> is Tesla’s biggest competitor, dominating the Chinese EV markets. After going public in 2018, it’s been on a tear, producing vehicles with record-breaking range. They recently unveiled their first electric sedan with a longer range battery, which sent shares surging in early January.</p>\n<p>Nio’s current performance is a far cry from just one year ago In fact, many shareholders were ready to write off their losses and give up on the company. But China’s answer to Tesla’s dominance powered on, eclipsed estimates, and most importantly, kept its balance sheet in line. And it’s paid off. In a big way. The company has seen its share price soar from $3.24 at the start of 2020 to a high of $61 this month, representing a massive 1600% return for investors who held strong.</p>\n<p>By NIO’s fourth quarter report in October, the company announced that its sales had more than doubled, projecting even greater sales in 2021. The EV up-and-comer has shocked investors and pulled itself back after its rumored potential bankruptcy in 2019, and if this year shows investors anything, it’s that its CEO William Li is as skilled and ambitious as anyone in the business.</p>\n<p><b>Toyota Motors (NYSE:TM)</b> is a massive international car producer that hasn’t ignored the transition to greener transportation. In fact, the Toyota Prius was one of the first hybrids to hit the road in a big way. While the legacy hybrid vehicle has been the butt of many jokes throughout the years, the car has been a major success, and more importantly, it helped spur the adoption of greener vehicles for years to come.</p>\n<p>And just because its Prius hasn’t exactly aged as well as some green competitors, Toyota hasn’t left the green power race yet. Just a few days ago, actually, the giant automaker announced that three new electric vehicles will be coming to United States markets soon.</p>\n<p>“We continue to be leaders in electrification that began with our pioneering introduction of the Prius nearly 25 years ago,” said Bob Carter, TMNA executive vice president of sales. “Toyota’s new electrified product offerings will give customers multiple choices of powertrain that best suits their needs.”</p>\n<p>Toyota has a major hold over U.S. markets at the moment. In fact, it maintains a 75% share of total fuel cell vehicles and a 64% share in hybrid and plug-in vehicles. And now it’s looking to capture a greater share of electric vehicles, as well.</p>\n<p><b>General Motors (NYSE:GM)</b> is one of the legacy automakers benefiting from a shift from gas-powered to EV technology. Even with the downfall of Detroit, GM has persisted, and that’s due in large part to its ability to adapt. In fact, GM’s dive into alternative fuels began way back in 1966 when it produced the world’s first-ever hydrogen-powered van. And it has not stopped innovating, either.</p>\n<p>With the news of GM’s new business unit, BrightDrop, they plan to sell electric vans and services to commercial delivery companies, disrupting the market for delivery logistics. This is a huge move as delivery sales have absolutely exploded during the COVID-19 pandemic, and are projected to grow even further over the coming years.</p>\n<p>And in January 2021, the giant automaker announced that it will discontinue production of all gas-powered vehicles, including hybrids, by 2035. This is a key factor in its commitment to become carbon-net zero by 2040.&nbsp; The move will likely sit well with shareholders which are increasingly pushing for companies to clean up their act.</p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BLNK\">Blink Charging</a> (NASDAQ:BLNK)</b> is building an EV charging network that may be small right now, but it’s got explosive growth potential that is as big as the EV market itself.&nbsp;&nbsp;This stock is on a major tear and all that cash flowing into it right now gives <b>Blink</b> the superpower to acquire and expand.</p>\n<p>A wave of new deals, including a collaboration with EnerSys and another with Envoy Technologies to deploy electric vehicles and charging stations adds further support to the bullish case for <b>Blink</b>.</p>\n<p>Michael D. Farkas, Founder, CEO and Executive Chairman of <b>Blink</b> noted, “This is an exciting collaboration with EnerSys because it combines the industry-leading technologies of our two companies to provide user-friendly, high powered, next-generation charging alternatives. We are continuously innovating our product offerings to provide more efficient and convenient charging options to the growing community of EV drivers.”</p>\n<p>Blink Charging was one of the darlings of the EV boom throughout 2020 because of its expansion in EV charging technology. With their chargers deployed at airports, car dealers, hospitals, restaurants, retailers, and schools across the nation, Blink recently saw shares jump 76% in just one month.</p>\n<p><b>NFI Group (TSX:NFI) </b>is one of Canada’s leaders in the electric vehicle space. It produces transit busses and motorcycles. <b>NFI</b> had a difficult start to the year, but it since cut its debt and begun to address its cash flow struggles in a meaningful way.

ushered in the start of the EV boom, but it could have a frightening aftershock.\nWe’re already seeing some of the incredible triple-digit gains in EV companies like Tesla and Workhorse.\nAnd this EV wave is only expected to grow bigger in the days ahead under the Biden administration.\nJust a week after inauguration, President Biden reported he plans to replace the entire government fleet with electric vehicles.\nThat’s up to 643,000 vehicles turning electric on the government’s dime.\nBut Toyota’s president, Akio Toyoda, had an ominous prediction for what could lie ahead.\nHe stated that if EVs are adopted too quickly, we may not have the energy to support them at this point.\nIn fact, he predicted Japan would run out of electricity by summer if they banned all gas-powered vehicles now.\nHe even went as far as to say that if we rush the process of transitioning to EVs all at once, “the current business model of the auto industry is going to collapse.”\nWhile the buzz for electric vehicles has only grown over the last year, many often miss this key piece in making such a drastic shift in such a short period.\nAnd although it’s expected to create plenty of demand for solar, wind, nuclear, and geothermal energy sources…\nAt this point in the game, they are still too expensive and lack the storage capacity we’d need for those to be the final solution.\nThat’s why companies bridging the gap to the EV world are thriving.\nFacedrive (TSXV:FD,OTC:FDVRF), a company known for its “people and planet first” approach, has seen incredible success over the last year, for example.\nThey recently acquired EV subscription company, Steer, from the largest clean energy producer in the United States.\nSteer’s subscription model for EV cars is putting a major twist on the traditional car ownership model.\n\nSo instead of everyone going out and buying their own EV, they can borrow one as-needed instead.\nWith Facedrive’s acquisition of Steer, customers pay a simple monthly fee like with Netflix, and they get access to a fleet of EVs at their disposal.\nOver the last year, big moves like this have helped Facedrive sign a number of important partnerships and deals including government agencies, A-list celebrities, and major multinational corporations.\nAnd they’ve even managed to grow their business throughout the United States and Canada during a time when ridesharing as an industry suffered during global lockdowns.\nWhen looking at the energy shortage that could lie ahead, it’s likely that creative solutions will be key in bridging the gap to the inevitable EV future.\nSmartest in the World Making Bold Predictions\nWhile Toyota’s president made a dark prediction about where we could be headed, he’s not alone in being concerned.\nElon Musk expressed his own concerns about the issue recently as well.\nIn an interview in December, he said that the world’s electricity consumption would likely double once EVs become the norm.\nAnd that’s only accounting for this mass adoption in electric vehicles.\nThe situation could become even more pressing as the rest of our lives grow increasingly digital too, sucking up more electricity in the process.\nWith the “internet of things” creating smart cities and smart homes, the demand for electricity will only go up as everything from Peloton bikes to Nest thermostats are now connected by the internet.\nPlus, peak times could cause a real problem if we don’t come up with new energy solutions.\nWith thousands of cars on the roads during morning and evening commutes, it’s not hard to imagine times where we simply wouldn’t have enough power to charge all EVs that need it at once.\nGiven the speed of innovation and the amount of resources going into renewable energy right now though, this is sure to be a short-term issue until the next great solution is discovered.\nBut in the meantime, Facedrive’s moves are putting them squarely in position to smooth out the transition.\nAnd in addition to the monthly membership model used with Steer, they’re helping keep the number of cars on the road down through their signature ridesharing service.\nTheir model is simple.\nWhen customers hail a ride, they have the choice to ride in an electric vehicle or a standard gas-powered car.\nAfter they get to their destination, the Facedrive (TSXV:FD,OTC:FDVRF) algorithm sets aside a portion of the fare to plant trees, offsetting the carbon footprint from the ride.\nIn other words, you ride, they plant a tree.\nThrough next-gen technology and partnerships, they’re giving their customers the option to make a more eco-friendly choice if they choose.\nPlus, Facedrive has added a booming food delivery service, which has expanded at a record pace while folks were stuck at home during global lockdowns.\nThey’re now delivering over 4,100 orders per day on average. And after growing to 19 major cities, they plan to expand to more cities throughout the U.S. and Canada soon.\nIt's this kind of innovative thinking that has many so optimistic about the opportunities that lie ahead.\nWho Will Win In The EV Boom?\nElon Musk warned that, like with the boom in smartphones, we’re not likely to see the EV revolution all happen at once. Because just like with smartphones, you can’t replace them all at once.\nBut it’s undeniable that the movement is growing at a remarkable pace.\nEven under an administration that was not supportive of climate change and green initiatives, the EV markets have soared throughout 2020.\nTesla was one of the biggest market stories of the year, locking in over 700% gains on its way to becoming one of the largest companies on the S&P 500.\nAnd experts are expecting to see massive spending on the infrastructure needed for EVs under the Biden administration too.\nIn addition to his vow to spend more on clean energy research, President Biden also reported plans to build out 550,000 EV charging stations across the country.\nWith the growth we’ve seen in this area already, it’s also caused shares for companies like Plug Power to soar over 1,000% in 2020.\nAnd Facedrive has been sharing in this success too, with incredible gains of 834% over the last year.\nBut while they’re helping smooth out the transition to the EV future, they’ve also been busy helping to solve the problems of today.\nLast year, they created a wearable contact tracing technology called TraceSCAN.\nIt’s designed to help alert those without cell phones when they’ve been in contact with someone who’s tested positive for COVID-19.\n\nWith wearables gaining widespread adoption since the release of devices like the Fitbit or Apple Watch, the demand for TraceSCAN has erupted in recent months.\nAnd in the coming weeks, Facedrive plans to release an updated version with key health and safety benefits like temperature checking and vital sign monitoring.\nFacedrive has now signed agreements with government agencies and major airlines to use this technology.\nPlus, they are currently in discussions to continue TraceSCAN’s growth with major multinational corporations.\nAfter the surge in electric vehicle tech we saw last year, now is the time to plan for the domino effect we could see play out in the days ahead.\nAnd in the end, it could be the ones helping in the transition that become the biggest winners of the EV boom.\nHere are a few other companies to watch in the EV and EV related space:\nTesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) was among the biggest market stories of 2020 with incredible gains of over 700%. This helped them become one of the highest-valued stocks in the United States with other Big Tech giants. It is now the most valuable car maker “of all time”. It is now worth almost $800 billion.\nAfter a much-touted Battery Day event and expectations of Musk developing a “Million Mile Battery” in the near future, Tesla recently joined the S&P 500.\nTesla is the de-facto king of the electric vehicle market. And it’s easy to see why. Armed with slick cars, game-changing technology and an out of this world CEO, Tesla has a lot going for it.\nBillionaire Elon Musk had his eye on this trend far before the hype started building. He released the first Tesla Roadster back in 2008, making electric vehicles cool when people were still snubbing their noses at the first-generation EVs. Since then, Tesla’s stock has skyrocketed by over 14,000%. But while Tesla’s EV threat to the industry is clear, the competition is heating up in China.\nNio (NYSE:NIO) is Tesla’s biggest competitor, dominating the Chinese EV markets. After going public in 2018, it’s been on a tear, producing vehicles with record-breaking range. They recently unveiled their first electric sedan with a longer range battery, which sent shares surging in early January.\nNio’s current performance is a far cry from just one year ago In fact, many shareholders were ready to write off their losses and give up on the company. But China’s answer to Tesla’s dominance powered on, eclipsed estimates, and most importantly, kept its balance sheet in line. And it’s paid off. In a big way. The company has seen its share price soar from $3.24 at the start of 2020 to a high of $61 this month, representing a massive 1600% return for investors who held strong.\nBy NIO’s fourth quarter report in October, the company announced that its sales had more than doubled, projecting even greater sales in 2021. The EV up-and-comer has shocked investors and pulled itself back after its rumored potential bankruptcy in 2019, and if this year shows investors anything, it’s that its CEO William Li is as skilled and ambitious as anyone in the business.\nToyota Motors (NYSE:TM) is a massive international car producer that hasn’t ignored the transition to greener transportation. In fact, the Toyota Prius was one of the first hybrids to hit the road in a big way. While the legacy hybrid vehicle has been the butt of many jokes throughout the years, the car has been a major success, and more importantly, it helped spur the adoption of greener vehicles for years to come.\nAnd just because its Prius hasn’t exactly aged as well as some green competitors, Toyota hasn’t left the green power race yet. Just a few days ago, actually, the giant automaker announced that three new electric vehicles will be coming to United States markets soon.\n“We continue to be leaders in electrification that began with our pioneering introduction of the Prius nearly 25 years ago,” said Bob Carter, TMNA executive vice president of sales. “Toyota’s new electrified product offerings will give customers multiple choices of powertrain that best suits their needs.”\nToyota has a major hold over U.S. markets at the moment. In fact, it maintains a 75% share of total fuel cell vehicles and a 64% share in hybrid and plug-in vehicles. And now it’s looking to capture a greater share of electric vehicles, as well.\nGeneral Motors (NYSE:GM) is one of the legacy automakers benefiting from a shift from gas-powered to EV technology. Even with the downfall of Detroit, GM has persisted, and that’s due in large part to its ability to adapt. In fact, GM’s dive into alternative fuels began way back in 1966 when it produced the world’s first-ever hydrogen-powered van. And it has not stopped innovating, either.\nWith the news of GM’s new business unit, BrightDrop, they plan to sell electric vans and services to commercial delivery companies, disrupting the market for delivery logistics. This is a huge move as delivery sales have absolutely exploded during the COVID-19 pandemic, and are projected to grow even further over the coming years.\nAnd in January 2021, the giant automaker announced that it will discontinue production of all gas-powered vehicles, including hybrids, by 2035. This is a key factor in its commitment to become carbon-net zero by 2040.  The move will likely sit well with shareholders which are increasingly pushing for companies to clean up their act.\nBlink Charging (NASDAQ:BLNK) is building an EV charging network that may be small right now, but it’s got explosive growth potential that is as big as the EV market itself.  This stock is on a major tear and all that cash flowing into it right now gives Blink the superpower to acquire and expand.\nA wave of new deals, including a collaboration with EnerSys and another with Envoy Technologies to deploy electric vehicles and charging stations adds further support to the bullish case for Blink.\nMichael D. Farkas, Founder, CEO and Executive Chairman of Blink noted, “This is an exciting collaboration with EnerSys because it combines the industry-leading technologies of our two companies to provide user-friendly, high powered, next-generation charging alternatives. We are continuously innovating our product offerings to provide more efficient and convenient charging options to the growing community of EV drivers.”\nBlink Charging was one of the darlings of the EV boom throughout 2020 because of its expansion in EV charging technology. With their chargers deployed at airports, car dealers, hospitals, restaurants, retailers, and schools across the nation, Blink recently saw shares jump 76% in just one month.\nNFI Group (TSX:NFI) is one of Canada’s leaders in the electric vehicle space. It produces transit busses and motorcycles. NFI had a difficult start to the year, but it since cut its debt and begun to address its cash flow struggles in a meaningful way. Though it remains down from January highs, NFI still offers investors a promising opportunity to capitalize on the electric vehicle boom.\nRecently, NFI has seen an uptick in insider stock purchases which is often a sign that the board and management strongly believe in the future of the company. In addition to its increasingly positive financial reports, it is also one of the few in the business that actually pay dividends out to its investors.\nNot to be outdone, GreenPower Motor (TSX.V:GPV) a thriving electric bus manufacturer based out of Vancouver, is making moves on the market, as well. Although for the moment, its focus is primarily on the North American market, but its ambitions are much larger. Founded over a decade ago, GreenPower has been on the frontlines of the electric transportation movement, with a focus on building affordable battery-electric busses and trucks.\nYear-to-date, GreenPower has seen its share price soar from $2.03 to $36.88. That means investors have seen 1700% gains this year alone. And with this red-hot sector only going up, GreenPower will likely continue to impress.\nBoralex Inc. (TSX:BLX) is an upcoming renewable firm based in Kingsey Falls, Canada. The company’s primary energies are produced through wind, hydroelectric, thermal, and solar sources and help power the homes of many people globally. Not only has it has had a great influence in the adoption of renewable electricity domestically, it’s even branching out into the United States, France, and the United Kingdom. In fact, just recently, Boralex took control of a massive 209MW solar farm in California.\nWestport Fuel Systems (TSX:WPRT) is a unique way to get in on the green boom in the auto industry.. It helps build the tools needed for carmakers to incorporate less damaging fuels like natural gas. Though natural gas doesn’t get quite the attention as electric vehicles do, there are over 22.5  million natural gas vehicles on the road across the globe.
