Here&#39;s what&#39;s behind his pessimistic view for the growth stock. </p><h2>More price cuts to come?</h2><p>Earlier this year, Tesla rolled out major price cuts for its vehicle lineup. This sparked concerns in the media about potential demand softening. But Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in the company&#39;s fourth-quarter earnings call that the lower prices were driving a significant surge in orders.</p><p>Investors ultimately warmed up to the idea of price cuts, evidenced by the stock&#39;s soaring price year to date. Further, part of the price cut was essentially giving back price increases that occurred in the prior year, as higher costs led Tesla to raise prices on its vehicles. As some of Tesla&#39;s costs started to normalize more recently, it made sense for the company to pass those savings on to customers through reduced prices. After all, lower prices do typically drive higher unit sales.</p><p>But Bernstein analyst Toni Sacconaghi thinks that there are more price cuts to come. He notes that Tesla&#39;s vehicle inventory, while still low, has been growing. Further, the wait time between a new order of a Tesla vehicle in the U.S. and the expected delivery window is currently low on all models except Tesla&#39;s Model Y, Sacconaghi says. He thinks these things point to signs of a tough demand environment, and potentially more price increases later this year.</p><p>With expectations for more price cuts, Bernstein thinks shares are overvalued. His 12-month price target of $150 for the stock implies nearly 23% downside from where the stock is trading at the time of this writing.</p><h2>There&#39;s a good explanation for more inventory</h2><p>While Sacconaghi&#39;s take is worth taking into consideration, investors should note that there&#39;s a good reason for Tesla&#39;s inventory build. The company explained in its fourth-quarter update that it has been working toward a gradual shift toward a more balanced regional mix of production and deliveries throughout the year. This effort could have led to some inventory build as Tesla prioritizes lower costs over delivery speed when it comes to shipping its vehicles. Given Tesla&#39;s effort to better balance and optimize its vehicle shipment process, its inventory of vehicles will likely gradually increase throughout the year.</p><p>With this said, more price cuts are certainly possible. If any do occur, investors may want to look for answers from management in earnings calls throughout the year.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

But Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in the company's fourth-quarter earnings call that the lower prices were driving a significant surge in orders.Investors ultimately warmed up to the idea of price cuts, evidenced by the stock's soaring price year to date. Further, part of the price cut was essentially giving back price increases that occurred in the prior year, as higher costs led Tesla to raise prices on its vehicles. As some of Tesla's costs started to normalize more recently, it made sense for the company to pass those savings on to customers through reduced prices. After all, lower prices do typically drive higher unit sales.But Bernstein analyst Toni Sacconaghi thinks that there are more price cuts to come. He notes that Tesla's vehicle inventory, while still low, has been growing. Further, the wait time between a new order of a Tesla vehicle in the U.S. and the expected delivery window is currently low on all models except Tesla's Model Y, Sacconaghi says. He thinks these things point to signs of a tough demand environment, and potentially more price increases later this year.With expectations for more price cuts, Bernstein thinks shares are overvalued. His 12-month price target of $150 for the stock implies nearly 23% downside from where the stock is trading at the time of this writing.There's a good explanation for more inventoryWhile Sacconaghi's take is worth taking into consideration, investors should note that there's a good reason for Tesla's inventory build. The company explained in its fourth-quarter update that it has been working toward a gradual shift toward a more balanced regional mix of production and deliveries throughout the year. This effort could have led to some inventory build as Tesla prioritizes lower costs over delivery speed when it comes to shipping its vehicles. Given Tesla's effort to better balance and optimize its vehicle shipment process, its inventory of vehicles will likely gradually increase throughout the year.With this said, more price cuts are certainly possible. If any do occur, investors may want to look for answers from management in earnings calls throughout the year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":394,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9948801291,"gmtCreate":1680659327313,"gmtModify":1680659331052,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9948801291","repostId":"2324800035","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2324800035","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1680645600,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2324800035?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-04-05 06:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is It Time to Buy the S&P 500's 3 Worst-Performing March Stocks?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2324800035","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Which industry had the worst month?

This may come as a surprise, given that two major banks went under and another is in the process of winding down its operations.

Let&#39;s take a look at the big losers and see if they are worth a closer look as a possible investment or should be avoided.</p><h2>Banks had the worst month</h2><p>The three worst-performing stocks on the S&amp;P 500 in March were <strong><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FRC\">First Republic Bank</a></strong>, <strong>Zions Bancorp</strong>, and <strong>Comerica</strong>. First Republic was down a whopping 88.6% in March, while Zions was down 38.2%, and Comerica fell 36.7% for the month.</p><p>These three banks all have a few things in common. For one, all three are regional banks. Small and regional banks took the biggest hits in the bank sell-off after Signature Bank and <strong>SVB Financial</strong>&#39;s Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) collapsed after a run on deposits. The second reason is more germane to why these three banks, in particular, saw their stock prices tumble: They all have a large number of uninsured deposits.</p><p>Both SVB and Signature Bank had the highest level of uninsured deposits, by far, with more than 90% of total deposits uninsured. But among regional banks, First Republic was third, at about 68%, while Comerica was not far behind at 64%, and Zions was in the top 10 among regional banks with 52% in uninsured deposits.</p><p>What are uninsured deposits and why does this matter? Uninsured deposits refer to any cash in accounts in excess of $250,000. Since the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) only insures deposits up to $250,000, money over that amount would be uninsured. As account holders pulled their deposits from SVB and then Signature, the contagion spread to other, similar banks that had high levels of uninsured deposits -- most notably First Republic.</p><p>However, it&#39;s worth noting that the run that hurt SVB was unique in that SVB had too much money invested in long-term held-to-maturity (HTM) bonds that it couldn&#39;t sell, thus hurting its liquidity after deposit outflows. First Republic, Zions, and Comerica didn&#39;t have nearly as much tied up in HTM bonds, as this article by the Motley Fool&#39;s Bram Berkowitz explains. That still didn&#39;t stop panicked investors from pulling deposits, at least initially.  </p><p>The banking crisis got national attention starting around March 8-9. By March 13, federal regulators stepped in to ensure that any banks that needed liquidity would get it through their Bank Term Funding Program, to avoid another bank failure. On March 16, the 11 largest U.S. banks committed to providing a lifeline to First Republic in the form of $30 billion in deposits to bolster its liquidity and assure other First Republic depositors that it had cash on hand to handle transactions.</p><h2>Is the worst over?</h2><p>First Republic, Zions, and Comerica have stabilized since that initial drop following the bank failures. But the massive drops in their stock prices brought their valuations down to dirt cheap levels.</p><p>Comerica is trading at 4.8 times earnings, down from a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 8.8 at the end of 2022, while Zions is trading at 4.7 times earnings, down from 9.2 on Dec. 31. First Republic is even cheaper, with a P/E ratio of just 1.7, down from 14.5 at the end of 2022.</p><p>The worst is probably over for these bank stocks, but there&#39;s still too much volatility and uncertainty surrounding regional banks, as there&#39;s been a flight by depositors to larger, more regulated banks. Also, Congress is debating whether or not there should be further regulations on small to mid-sized banks -- those with less than $250 billion in assets that aren&#39;t subject to stress tests. This is something to watch for.</p><p>In addition, these are not banks I would have recommended before the meltdown, just because there are better deals elsewhere in the industry. That hasn&#39;t changed now.</p><p>But these three stocks are very cheap, so the low valuation is intriguing. I&#39;d at least wait until they each report first-quarter earnings later this month, however, to see what kind of fallout is still to be reported for each and better determine if they are really on the road to recovery.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Is It Time to Buy the S&P 500's 3 Worst-Performing March Stocks?</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nIs It Time to Buy the S&P 500's 3 Worst-Performing March Stocks?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-04-05 06:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/04/04/time-buy-sp-500-worst-performing-march-stocks/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>KEY POINTSBank stocks were pummeled in March, following the collapse of Silicon Valley and Signature banks.The three worst-performing stocks on the S&P 500 were all bank stocks.

Perhaps, what&#39;s actually happened is that the shorts got too crowded.</li><li>C3.ai changes its business model to usage-based business model. What does this mean in practical terms?</li><li>Despite all the excitement around AI, C3.ai&#39;s customer count is flat since last quarter.</li></ul><p>Investment Thesis</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AI\">C3.ai</a> put out a strong outlook that got animal spirits back into the stock. With the stock soaring premarket, there&#39;s undoubtedly a lot of excitement in this name.</p><p>And while I don&#39;t wish to destroy anyone&#39;s fun, and I will not make any comments on its valuation, I do wish to pepper investors&#39; enthusiasm with a few notes of caution.</p><p>I believe that in the long run, this will end badly. But at the same time, I&#39;m experienced enough (or better said, been humbled enough times) to know that the market can remain irrational for a while.</p><p>Let&#39;s get into it.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9092fd5fe89f3d2730901c8095af44fc\" tg-width=\"667\" tg-height=\"320\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>C3.ai beat on the top and bottom line and put out above-consensus revenue guidance.</p><p>But I won&#39;t delve further into its outlook, as I believe that is less interesting than what&#39;s happening in the background.</p><h3>Where Short Sellers Caught Off Guard?</h3><p>Spruce Point Capital Management is short the stock. In their short report, one of the things they declare is that C3.ai has a history of changing its name as trends change.</p><p>At first, the company was called C3 Energy, when energy was hot. Then, it changes its name to C3 IoT, when IoT was the significant buzz theme of the day.</p><p>And now, more recently, the company changed its name to C3.ai. See the chart below that overlays the &#39;&#39;topic du jour&#39;&#39; with the company changing its name.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f2fec2c5c1f643ef698693c312402cdc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"336\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Meanwhile, as we headed into C3.ai&#39;s fiscal Q3 2023 earnings result, shorts came out on mass looking to short this stock into the earnings report.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/78ddbbc12c93ffbe00a41a4c5a1a69ee\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"236\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>But what the shorts didn&#39;t count on was this:</p><blockquote>In the course of the quarter, we validated our transition to a consumption-based pricing model.</blockquote><blockquote>Our pilot to production conversion rate is on track. The consumption pricing revenue conversion model that we provided last quarter [...], appears to be realistic, suggesting substantially increasing revenue growth rates in fiscal year &#39;24 and beyond.</blockquote><p>These comments came from C3.ai&#39;s Chairman Tom Siebel on the earnings call. Now, I&#39;m going to rewind the clock and talk about consumption-business models.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/642b9bfc2e672b39e61dca34e966632e\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"467\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>The graphic above shows 4 different companies that embraced a usage or consumption-business model.</p><p>These business models are absolutely fantastic to drive up near-term revenues. Do you know why?</p><p>Because the more you use the platforms the more you are billed. Do you think that you&#39;d be willing to pay more to Netflix (NFLX) if you decided to watch two shows instead of one? Maybe. Let&#39;s ask Blockbuster how that turned out.</p><p>What you want is for your customers to maximize their time on your platform. Not to put forward barriers that make them wish they didn&#39;t end up with such a high bill.</p><p>It would be the same as Amazon (AMZN) ramping up shipping costs every time you bought something from them. It would be foolish at best.</p><p>In sum, I have yet to find a single business that successfully employs a usage-based business model.</p><h3>Is C3.ai Mostly Wall Street Hype?</h3><p>C3.ai ended last quarter, fiscal Q2 2023 with 236 customers. And now? C3.ai ended fiscal Q3 2023 with 236 customers. No growth in customers. If you are not growing your customers, the driving engine of your business, then you don&#39;t have a growth business.</p><p>For their part, C3.ai discussed on the earnings call, that there are 17 customers running a trial, that C3.ai is looking to onboard. Investors should watch this space for further updates.

That's the headline, right? Perhaps, what's actually happened is that the shorts got too crowded.C3.ai changes its business model to usage-based business model. What does this mean in practical terms?Despite all the excitement around AI, C3.ai's customer count is flat since last quarter.Investment ThesisC3.ai put out a strong outlook that got animal spirits back into the stock. With the stock soaring premarket, there's undoubtedly a lot of excitement in this name.And while I don't wish to destroy anyone's fun, and I will not make any comments on its valuation, I do wish to pepper investors' enthusiasm with a few notes of caution.I believe that in the long run, this will end badly. But at the same time, I'm experienced enough (or better said, been humbled enough times) to know that the market can remain irrational for a while.Let's get into it.C3.ai beat on the top and bottom line and put out above-consensus revenue guidance.But I won't delve further into its outlook, as I believe that is less interesting than what's happening in the background.Where Short Sellers Caught Off Guard?Spruce Point Capital Management is short the stock. In their short report, one of the things they declare is that C3.ai has a history of changing its name as trends change.At first, the company was called C3 Energy, when energy was hot. Then, it changes its name to C3 IoT, when IoT was the significant buzz theme of the day.And now, more recently, the company changed its name to C3.ai. See the chart below that overlays the ''topic du jour'' with the company changing its name.Meanwhile, as we headed into C3.ai's fiscal Q3 2023 earnings result, shorts came out on mass looking to short this stock into the earnings report.But what the shorts didn't count on was this:In the course of the quarter, we validated our transition to a consumption-based pricing model.Our pilot to production conversion rate is on track. The consumption pricing revenue conversion model that we provided last quarter [...], appears to be realistic, suggesting substantially increasing revenue growth rates in fiscal year '24 and beyond.These comments came from C3.ai's Chairman Tom Siebel on the earnings call. Now, I'm going to rewind the clock and talk about consumption-business models.The graphic above shows 4 different companies that embraced a usage or consumption-business model.These business models are absolutely fantastic to drive up near-term revenues. Do you know why?Because the more you use the platforms the more you are billed. Do you think that you'd be willing to pay more to Netflix (NFLX) if you decided to watch two shows instead of one? Maybe. Let's ask Blockbuster how that turned out.What you want is for your customers to maximize their time on your platform. Not to put forward barriers that make them wish they didn't end up with such a high bill.It would be the same as Amazon (AMZN) ramping up shipping costs every time you bought something from them. It would be foolish at best.In sum, I have yet to find a single business that successfully employs a usage-based business model.Is C3.ai Mostly Wall Street Hype?C3.ai ended last quarter, fiscal Q2 2023 with 236 customers. And now? C3.ai ended fiscal Q3 2023 with 236 customers. No growth in customers. If you are not growing your customers, the driving engine of your business, then you don't have a growth business.For their part, C3.ai discussed on the earnings call, that there are 17 customers running a trial, that C3.ai is looking to onboard. Investors should watch this space for further updates. And if more customers started to get onboarded, that could reignite C3.ai's growth opportunity.The Bottom LineWhen the Fed takes its foot off the brakes, this will be a cash positive rapidly growing business, okay? And I think we're going to be off to the races. (Chairman Tom Siebel comments)C3.ai's balance sheet holds more than $750 million in cash and equivalents. So, even though C3.ai is likely to burn through more than $250 million of free cash flow this fiscal year, C3.ai asserts that by the end of fiscal 2024, the next twelve months, C3.ai will be cash positive.In summary, AI remains a very exciting place to watch.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":431,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9940692900,"gmtCreate":1677851780401,"gmtModify":1677851783760,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9940692900","repostId":"1126977394","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1126977394","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1677845436,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1126977394?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-03 20:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Pre-Bell｜U.S. Stock Futures Rise; This AI Stock Surges 18%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1126977394","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stock index futures inched higher on Friday as Treasury yields took a breather from a week-long","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>U.S. stock index futures inched higher on Friday as Treasury yields took a breather from a week-long rally, which was sparked by worries that the Federal Reserve would keep interest rates higher for longer to tame stubborn inflation.</p><h2>Market Snapshot</h2><p>At 7:30 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were up 69 points, or 0.21%, S&amp;P 500 e-minis were up 13 points, or 0.33%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 48 points, or 0.4%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81e7cbea3e84a2bee65a618536e00ac3\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"387\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><h2>Pre-Market Movers</h2><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VERU\">Veru Inc.</a> 32.8% LOWER; announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has declined to grant at this time the Companys request for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for sabizabulin, Verus novel microtubule disruptor, to treat hospitalized adult patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 who are at high risk for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AI\">C3.ai</a> 18.25% HIGHER; reported Q3 EPS of ($0.06), $0.16 better than the analyst estimate of ($0.22).

Skyrocket growth in Embedded segment mainly represents non data center sales from Xilinx acquisition,which was completed in early 2022. Client computing sales big decline was caused by weaker demand and growing inventories.Morningstar Premium expectsPC units to be down at least 10% in FY 2023. Gaming revenues declined slightly mainly because of lower GPU sales which were partially offset by growing console chip demand.GPU sales are largely dependent on cryptocurrency miningactivity which I expect to be weak in 2023 due to multiple unfavorable external factors for crypto-industry.

In recent years, the management demonstrated its ability of improving cash flows and diversifying company's business by strategic acquisitions .All in all ,the company has firm market position and experienced management with strong track record of innovation together with solid financials which makes it an attractive investment opportunity. Although we are currently experiencing challenging macro environment, my valuation model outcomes suggest an immense upside potential in the long-run, which by far outweighs possible risks.Company informationAMD is one of the leading semiconductor companies which designs and manufactures computing and graphic high-performance hardware. The company is a top player in graphic processors [GPU] after acquisition of ATI in 2008. As part of AMD's growth strategy the company is benefiting from integration with Xilinx, which was acquired in 2021, and enables AMD to expand its presence in embedded computing and data center segments.The company's revenue comprises of four segments: Data Center, Client, Gaming and Embedded.Financials - growth has been stellarThe company reported 4Q2022financial statements on January 31, 2023. Results demonstrated a beat of consensus estimates both in terms of top line and EPS.Increase in revenue in 4Q2022 was mainly generated by strong growth in Data Center and Embedded which was partially offset by Client PC segment being halved down and single-digit percentage decrease in Gaming segment.Increase in Data Center revenue is primarily related to growing EPYC server CPU product line. Skyrocket growth in Embedded segment mainly represents non data center sales from Xilinx acquisition,which was completed in early 2022. Client computing sales big decline was caused by weaker demand and growing inventories.Morningstar Premium expectsPC units to be down at least 10% in FY 2023. Gaming revenues declined slightly mainly because of lower GPU sales which were partially offset by growing console chip demand.GPU sales are largely dependent on cryptocurrency miningactivity which I expect to be weak in 2023 due to multiple unfavorable external factors for crypto-industry. Overall, to finalise about quarterly P&L, non GAAP gross margin expanded 70 basis points due to efficient product mix of Data Center and Embedded segments sales.As for the full FY 2022 the company's revenue increased 44% from $16.4 billion to 23.6 billion. This strong revenue growth contributed to a 25% growth in non-GAAP EPS.Embedded and Data Center segments together were major contributors to full year revenue growth demonstrating growth from $3.9 billion in 2021 to $10.6 billion in 2022 following Xilinx acquisition two years ago.Based on such a tremendous growth in Embedded segment we can see that Xilinx integration is run very well, making Embedded the major growth driver for company's full year revenue. Here management proved itself as being strong in enhancing company's financial model by diversifying the business. And synergies, are not over yet,during last earnings callthe CEO said following regarding Xilinx:In addition, we are seeing substantial new revenue synergy opportunities as we combine Xilinx's industry-leading adaptive products and 6,000-plus customers with AMD's expanded breadth of compute products and scale.Management also provided an outlook for the full FY 2023. Overall, they expect FY 2023 to be mixed with second half of the year much stronger than the first one mainly due to elevated inventory levels at the reporting date. Data Center and Embedded segments are expected to grow YoY with gross margin expanding in the second half of the year across all segments.According to Dr. Lisa Su, the CEO, in next year's rapid growth in Artificial Intelligence [AI] adoption will become one of major drivers for company's further growth:We expect AI adoption will accelerate significantly over the coming years and are incredibly excited about leveraging our broad portfolio of CPUs, GPUs and adaptive accelerators in combination with our software expertise to deliver differentiated solutions that can address the full spectrum of AI needs in training and inference across cloud, edge and client.While researching evidence for the above thesis of the company's CEO,I found some interesting data on AI from McKinsey.The figure I found most interesting is the fact that within last 5 years the number of AI capabilities that businesses used, has doubled, which indicates aggressive pace of AI adoption:To proceed with more forward-looking view on the matter,Precedence Research forecaststhat by the year 2030 AI market will increase tenfold from current levels, which is huge.From a balance sheet perspective things are also going well, we can see that at the reporting date, the net cash position is strong, which enabled the company to return $3.7 billion to shareholders via share repurchases in FY 2022.To sum up this part, AMD's financial position is strong and company's financial performance and next year's outlook evidences that management is highly likely to be able to deliver further shareholders' wealth growth.ValuationSeeking Alpha's Quant Ratingsassess AMD's valuation attractiveness as not very high which is evidenced by a \"C-\" valuation grade.

As gaming continues to expand far beyond bulky devices that people plug into their television sets, the company is evolving to keep pace with gamers. But its transformation is beginning to raise hackles among regulators who say Microsoft could be even more dominant in the industry’s next era, especially if it completes its proposed $69 billion acquisition of gaming giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ATVI\">Activision Blizzard Inc.</a></p><p>A key to Microsoft’s strategy is Game Pass, a six-year-old service that charges users $10 to $15 a month to play a collection of more than 400 games on the Xbox, Microsoft’s Windows PC operating system, smart TVs, smartphones and tablets. As of January, the number of users who accessed the service on three or more devices had grown 20% compared with the same period the year before. On Feb. 28 the company will expand Game Pass to dozens of new markets, including in Latin America, the Middle East and Eastern Europe, almost doubling the number of countries where it’s available to 86.</p><p>Gaming subscription services are currently a relatively small portion of the broader gaming market. But Microsoft sees its Netflix-esque gaming experience, running on a wide range of devices, as the future of video games. “When I look at the industry today, that’s not where it is, but it is where it wants to be,” says Sarah Bond, Xbox’s vice president for game creator experience and ecosystem.</p><p>The company’s success with Game Pass, which has more than 25 million subscribers, has been notable in comparison with its major competitors. Amazon.com Inc.’s Luna service has been steadily losing games in its catalog, and Alphabet Inc.’s Google shuttered its game subscription service altogether in January. Even Sony Group Corp., long the leader in the gaming market, is struggling to compete. It hasn’t offered its biggest gaming titles on its own subscription service, PlayStation Plus, with the initial release, depriving Sony of the hype Microsoft attracts with splashy Game Pass releases.</p><p>Microsoft has clear advantages over its competitors in both content and infrastructure. It owns about two dozen game studios, including the ones behind hit franchises Minecraft and Halo, and has built-in delivery systems on the Windows operating system and Xbox console. It also operates one of the world’s biggest cloud computing networks in Azure. This is a crucial distinction between Microsoft and Sony when it comes to cloud gaming, where games are streamed directly from central servers instead of downloaded in advance. One tier of Game Pass offers cloud gaming, and Microsoft’s cloud network helps it to provide the service with low latency, the lag time between when something happens on a server and when it’s reflected on a user’s device.</p><p>“It’s a big, industrial-sized investment,” says Joost van Dreunen, a lecturer on the business of games at New York University’s Stern School of Business. “By taking the games out of the box—away from the PlayStations and Xboxes—and turning them into a digital service, or ultimately a cloud-based service, Microsoft finally found a way to outmaneuver the PlayStation.”</p><p>This year’s geographic expansion is a way for Microsoft to capture audiences for whom console gaming has historically been out of reach. “A lot of folks are going to be experiencing Xbox for the first time,” says Xbox Chief Marketing Officer Jerret West. For much of the Game Pass activity in regions such as Latin America and Southeast Asia, where gamers are more likely to use cheaper PCs or mobile phones, streaming can “play more of a primary role in a gamer’s experience,” he says.</p><p>Microsoft declined to share the total number of subscribers in any market but says Game Pass membership in Vietnam doubled in January alone and has doubled over the past two years across Asia, where 80% of the online population plays mobile games.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/75c6ce1c1c522e55ccbc14d3c693acf8\" tg-width=\"713\" tg-height=\"621\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Microsoft’s interest in buying Activision Blizzard is centered on securing content to draw in new gamers. Activision Blizzard makes some of the most recognizable titles for core console gamers and casual smartphone users. Its first-person shooter Call of Duty has tens of millions of monthly active users, and King, its subsidiary that publishes the mobile gaming megahit Candy Crush, attracted 233 million monthly active users in the quarter that ended December 2022.</p><p>Regulators in the US, Europe and the UK, which are all reviewing the deal, are already expressing concerns about Microsoft cementing its preeminent position in a nascent market. “Microsoft has a combination of assets that we provisionally consider is difficult for other cloud gaming service providers to match,” the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority, the country’s primary antitrust regulator, wrote in its preliminary findings in February, citing the Windows operating system, Xbox Cloud Gaming and Azure, and Microsoft’s existing ecosystem of consoles and games. The CMA wrote that the merger could result in a “substantial lessening of competition” in the console and cloud gaming services markets.</p><p>Microsoft doesn’t make the terms of its Game Pass licenses public, but developers say they often receive upfront payments to include their titles in the catalog, along with bonuses for games that do well on the service. A major plank of its pitch is that Game Pass brings a level of sustained engagement.</p><p>Some skeptical analysts and developers say that engagement on streaming comes at the expense of more lucrative one-off sales, echoing the complaints that musicians have about streaming services. In its preliminary findings, the CMA wrote that Microsoft’s internal documents “recognise that adding titles to Game Pass would lead to cannibalisation” of traditional game sales. It’s hard to tell how this dynamic is playing out today, in part because many of Microsoft’s partners are reluctant to discuss the specifics of their arrangements. Most publishers contacted for this story didn’t comment, some citing a concern that doing so could damage their relationship with Microsoft.</p><p>Mike Rose, founder of game publisher No More Robots, saw the benefits of Game Pass when he put the mountain biking game Descenders on the service in 2019. The game had been available for more than a year, but sales quadrupled soon after he added it to Game Pass. Rose now aims to get all of No More Robots’ games on the service. Jason Kingsley, chief executive officer of Rebellion Developments, the British maker of zombie and Alien vs. Predator games, says that when he adds titles to Game Pass, many of his company’s other games benefit from a noticeable increase in sales despite not being on the service themselves. Between 20% and 30% of people who play games on Game Pass also purchase additional downloadable content, Kingsley says.</p><p>Still, the biggest games today seldom get released on Game Pass unless they come from Microsoft-owned studios. Many indie game developers remain wary about Microsoft’s power to use Game Pass to determine which smaller games succeed. That, more than the impact on Sony, is what antitrust regulators should be asking about, says George Jijiashvili, an analyst at Omdia: “Is this perhaps too much power for one entity to have in terms of subscriptions?”</p><p>Microsoft says it gives a wide assortment of indie games companies a shot in Game Pass. There are more than 125 titles from Microsoft&#39;s ID@Xbox indie game program in the Xbox version of Game Pass and more than 140 in the PC version. And if indie developers sour on Game Pass, the game service landscape is currently fragmented enough to give developers various distribution options, Jijiashvili says. If Microsoft continues to outrun the competition, that may not always be the case.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1584095487587","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>Microsoft Expands Game Pass as Regulators Fret Over Activision Deal</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\">\nMicrosoft Expands Game Pass as Regulators Fret Over Activision Deal\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-02-28 16:26 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-02-28/xbox-game-pass-expands-as-regulators-probe-microsoft-activision-deal?srnd=premium-asia><strong>Bloomberg</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The subscription service, which dominates competing efforts from Sony and Amazon, is moving into dozens of new countries.The Xbox console has been the key to Microsoft Corp.’s clout in the gaming ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-02-28/xbox-game-pass-expands-as-regulators-probe-microsoft-activision-deal?srnd=premium-asia\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"MSFT":"微软","ATVI":"动视暴雪"},"source_url":"https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-02-28/xbox-game-pass-expands-as-regulators-probe-microsoft-activision-deal?srnd=premium-asia","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1184474702","content_text":"The subscription service, which dominates competing efforts from Sony and Amazon, is moving into dozens of new countries.The Xbox console has been the key to Microsoft Corp.’s clout in the gaming industry since its release more than two decades ago.

If Microsoft continues to outrun the competition, that may not always be the case.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":102,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9957771395,"gmtCreate":1677573871418,"gmtModify":1677573875262,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":18,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9957771395","repostId":"1121046489","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1121046489","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1677598116,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1121046489?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-28 23:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir: Why I Am Still In","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1121046489","media":"Seekingalpha","summary":"SummaryMr. Market rushed to buy Palantir's \"Profitability\" cover story.

SOM</h3><p>As previously examined in the company&#39;s S-1 filings, Palantir has a total addressable market (TAM) of $119 billion, but the firm did not update its TAM beyond that figure.

In other words, with $1.9 billion in revenue, Palantir has captured around 4% of the market share.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d15105694344802a87c43460225c3fd6\" tg-width=\"539\" tg-height=\"309\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Revenue Components (Gov Vs. Com)</h3><p>Palantir has expanded its business beyond government contracts to include more commercial clients. This diversification move maintained the company&#39;s consistent strong revenue growth (24% YoY) for 2022 despite macroeconomic adversities, and it expects a continued revenue expansion in 2023. In addition, Palantir&#39;s revenue continued to experience growth over the long term with the expansion of the primary market due to its enhanced engagement in commercial space. However, its limited focus on non-US markets restricts its ability to expand its customer base and revenue streams.</p><p>Specifically, the government segment (Gov) generated 56% of the $1.9 billion revenue in 2022; the rest came from the commercial segment (Com), and the majority of the customers, 61%, were in the US. Favorably, Palantir managed to grow its total customers, however, by 55%, reaching 367 customers by the end of 2022. As a result, the average revenue per customer (ARPC) dropped for a second consecutive year by 20%, down to $5.2 million per customer.</p><p>At first glance, the drop signals that customers do not spend more with the firm on average. However, the drop was due to the notable increase in the commercial segment in 2022 by 28%, reaching 260 Com customers. Specifically, new Com customers start with relatively low contracts of around $2-$3 million, which drags down the overall ARPC. Yet, Com&#39;s growth slowed down from a 24% QoQ increase to 14%, but the overall trend is still favorable.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/390eadd758631fec977ed90487022511\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"144\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Palantir initially started out getting contracts from the US Department of Defense. Despite the slight YoY 1.8% decrease in the number of Gov customers in 2022, the segment&#39;s ARPC remained the same throughout the year under the current challenging macro environment, proving the expanding ARPC and the Gov segment&#39;s recession-proof nature.</p><p>In previous articles, I stressed the importance of the Com segment, which could be the long-term growth driver of Palantir. With 147 Com clients that generated $645 million in 2021, Palantir had a commercial ARPC of $4.39 million, whereas, in 2022, the ARPC dropped to $3.2 million with an $834 million revenue. The decrease was due to sizable customer acquisition with rapid YoY growth of 79% but with smaller contract sizes.</p><p>CEO Alex Karp noted that 53% of Palantir&#39;s business deals are over $50 million. Favorably, the firm&#39;s top 20 customers spent $49.4 million in 2022, reporting a 13.3% YoY increase, supported by the Gov segment. Despite the customer base&#39;s resilient-proof attributes, having a large portion of revenues generated from a few large customers leads to less diversity and exposure to downside and volatility. Nevertheless, the increasing number of commercial customers partly mitigates this risk.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3323b23a643a76b1f6c8b207dfa0416d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Palantir has identified 6000 businesses with yearly revenues of at least $500 million, indicating potential clients with an average contract value of $9.33 million. To that effect, Palantir has achieved a 4.3% customer penetration but has an ARPC potential of nearly 3x. Furthermore, based on Palantir&#39;s &#34;Trojan Horse&#34; business model, many of these new Com customers will likely renew with a higher contract value in the foreseeable future, boosting ARPC levels.</p><p>The company&#39;s reliance on long-term government contracts can be subject to political and budgetary changes, resulting in revenue fluctuations. The company has succeeded in the government and defense sectors but has significant potential to expand its commercial segment and maintain its growth. PLTR&#39;s software license and maintenance fees are its primary revenue streams. These revenue streams have been consistent for years and have provided Palantir with a stable revenue base.</p><p>Palantir also generates revenue through professional services. The revenue stream has been growing in recent years as the company has expanded its customer base and worked to diversify its revenues. While professional services can be a high-margin revenue stream, there is the risk that they may not be as scalable as software licensing because they rely on the availability of highly skilled professionals. Finally, a smaller revenue segment is the platform hosting and support services, which is relatively new and represents a growing opportunity for Palantir as it expands.</p><p>Palantir maintains its growth in the government segment by developing and enhancing solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of government agencies, targeting new government agencies or departments, and developing relationships and partnerships to expand its reach and influence. For example, a £75 million Enterprise Agreement with the UK Ministry of Defense and an extended contract with the US Army Research Lab to deliver AI and ML capabilities provLasegment&#39;s resiliency.</p><p>Last but not least, based on the company&#39;s weighted average contract duration, the firm expects an additional 2.8-year contract duration. Specifically, as per note 15, Palantir&#39;s weighted average useful life stood at 4.85 years, and this enhances the predictability element of Palantir&#39;s revenue.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c901625acc99ee365742f79ad2815a73\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"344\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Questioning Profitability?</h3><p>Karp noted on the latest earnings call:</p><blockquote>We were profitable for the first time in our company&#39;s history last quarter.</blockquote><p>Mr. Market rushed to buy Palantir&#39;s &#34;Profitability&#34; cover story. Palantir reported its first profitable quarter in its 20 years of existence with a $30.9 million positive net income. Some unusual items stand out after digging deeper into the net income breakdown. As per note 14 in the 10-K form, the firm operationally is not profitable yet. Specifically, Palantir has recorded a $44.3 million fair value gain due to the Palantir Japan &#34;step acquisition&#34;. Excluding this item, net income would still be at a loss, but the path to operational profitability has become more evident.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2d2d8264468aa0caaa6c1c3e0f63ff6a\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>SBC Normalization</h3><p>Stock-based compensation (SBC) used to be Palantir&#39;s Achilles heel and a deal breaker for many investors. Last year, Karp explicitly stated that investors could expect normalization in the next 18 to 24 months, as it happened. One of my favorite metrics for Palantir is the SBC-to-Revenue ratio, which has dropped to 30% in 2022 and was the second consecutive annual drop. The decrease was attributable to the inverse movement of 24% YoY revenue growth and the 27% decline in the SBC to $565 million from $779 million in 2021.</p><p>Looking forward, to develop a reasonable expectation for SBC&#39;s trend, the Restricted-Stock-Units (RSU) provides the unrecorded SBC element. Specifically, this is the sum of SBC from the current plans, which include Options subject to vesting conditions as the employees fulfill their duties throughout the vesting period.</p><p>As of the year-end of 2021, the company had 326.9 million options outstanding with 8.33 remaining contractual life. The options outstanding account for 15.8% of total shares outstanding, slightly better than 2021, at 17.4%. Assuming the options vest and convert evenly in the next eight years, it implies around 39 million shares of annual dilution or 1.8% of the 2022 year-end share count. However, this figure does not take into account new RSU grants.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f651afc9903181a4bf4ba52d0ee651d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>In last year&#39;s article, we explored why Palantir&#39;s SBC has reached an inflection point. If this inverse relationship persists for another two to three years, Palantir will eventually reach GAAP profitability. Nevertheless, we investors are looking for companies that can add shareholder value; thus, focusing on the revenue growth rate compared to the dilution rate is the key.</p><p>Additionally, although Palantir increased its share count by a staggering 97% in 2021, there is light at the end of the tunnel. In 2022, the dilutive effect was minor, with only a slight increase in share count of 7%. On the contrary, the revenue growth rate was much faster, and this gap added value to the firm. In general, investors should closely track this metric as the wider this gap gets, the more shareholder value Palantir offers.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30159cf2cee1b27c842c74b5488a2e55\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Strategic Partnerships &amp; Collaborations</h3><p>Palantir has differentiated from competitors and positioned itself for sustained growth in the government and defense sectors over the long term. Palantir is developing and tailoring its products and services in the commercial segment, creating specialized solutions for specific industries or customizing its existing solutions to fit unique needs. In addition, it targets new industries or geographies and develops marketing strategies, strategic partnerships, and collaborations to reach new customers.</p><p>For example, Palantir collaborates with WesTrac, a provider of heavy equipment and aftermarket services to Australia&#39;s mining and construction sectors. The partnership will see Palantir&#39;s Foundry platform deployed across WesTrac&#39;s servicing and rebuilding operations centers in Perth. This partnership further expands Palantir&#39;s presence in the Australian industrial sector, complementing its long-standing collaboration with Rio Tinto (RIO).</p><p>Palantir has proactively formed strategic partnerships and collaborations with various companies to expand its reach, diversify its operations, and accelerate growth. With its flagship product, Foundry, Palantir is well-positioned to leverage data to drive better decision-making across organizations, making it an attractive partner for companies in various sectors.</p><p>Palantir has partnered with Lockheed Martin (LMT) to speed up the delivery of Aegis and future integrated combat system software through Palantir Apollo. The collaboration aims to improve the delivery of software that supports defense systems. Palantir&#39;s Apollo platform will enhance the efficiency and accuracy of software delivery for Aegis and other integrated combat systems. This collaboration highlights Palantir&#39;s ability to use data analysis and software expertise to support the defense industry.</p><p>Recent partnerships, such as those with WesTrac, Crisis24, and Tampa General Hospital, demonstrate Palantir&#39;s ability to serve industries such as mining, security, healthcare, and construction. These partnerships will likely accelerate the adoption of Palantir&#39;s products and services and enable the company to expand its market share.</p><p>Moreover, Palantir&#39;s collaborations with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the US and the Ministry of Health in New South Wales, Australia, have shown that the company can provide valuable tools for public health preparedness, particularly in the face of pandemics.</p><p>Overall, Palantir&#39;s partnerships and collaborations have positioned the company to continue to grow and innovate, with the potential to enter new markets and drive its expansion in existing ones. As a result, it will lead to solid long-term growth in its financial performance and valuations.</p><h3>Additional Risks To Consider</h3><p>The revised growth guidance of 16% revenue growth is nearly half last year&#39;s 30% annual growth. Favorably, the Gov segment has shown its resiliency and recession-proof nature throughout 2021, so we shouldn&#39;t expect much volatility considering the geopolitical tensions that favor Palantir. On the other hand, even though the Com segment has meaningfully expanded and remains a growth catalyst for PLTR, the macro uncertainty might decelerate its growth in the short run.</p><p>Criticism for Palantir&#39;s collaboration with government agencies, particularly in surveillance and immigration enforcement, poses a significant risk to the stock&#39;s price growth. Any public disclosure that Palantir&#39;s software has been used to violate privacy rights and target vulnerable populations, such as immigrants and refugees, can severely affect its stock price.</p><p>Finally, emerging trends in data analytics, such as edge computing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, cloud-based analytics, augmented analytics, and predictive analytics, have boosted market competition. As a result, it could pressure Palantir to lower prices and invest more aggressively in research and development.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2a4f5bab4bc3bab1ae1fa7c2c0bc0ad3\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Takeaway</h3><p>Although Palantir has established itself as a significant player in the data analytics market, its business outlook is subject to several risks and uncertainties. Nevertheless, the improving profitability and dilution prospects will strongly support PLTR&#39;s market valuation over the long term.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Palantir: Why I Am Still In</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nPalantir: Why I Am Still In\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-02-28 23:28 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4582503-palantir-why-i-am-still-in><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryMr. Market rushed to buy Palantir's \"Profitability\" cover story.

Surprisingly, PLTR announced its first profitable quarter in Q4, which marks a new era for the firm. However, following the spike in the stock price above $10/share, the rally was short-lived as many investors rushed to exit.Important Distinction TAM Vs. SOMAs previously examined in the company's S-1 filings, Palantir has a total addressable market (TAM) of $119 billion, but the firm did not update its TAM beyond that figure. According to Slintel, Palantir's current low market penetration is around 1.78%, suggesting the company has considerably more room for growth.According to a report from Precedence Research, the global market size for data analytics will continue to grow at an impressive CAGR of 30.41% from 2022-2030 and is expected to hit $346.33 billion in 2030. To that effect, the rapidly increasing demand for data analytics services and solutions worldwide will benefit Palantir's financial performance over the long term by expanding its TAM.Although there is some disagreement regarding Palantir's TAM of $119 billion compared to its serviceable obtainable market (SOM), my best estimate for Palantir's medium-term SOM ranges between $40-$50 billion, consisting of data visualization, predictive analytics, and fraud analytics.

One of my favorite metrics for Palantir is the SBC-to-Revenue ratio, which has dropped to 30% in 2022 and was the second consecutive annual drop. The decrease was attributable to the inverse movement of 24% YoY revenue growth and the 27% decline in the SBC to $565 million from $779 million in 2021.Looking forward, to develop a reasonable expectation for SBC's trend, the Restricted-Stock-Units (RSU) provides the unrecorded SBC element. Specifically, this is the sum of SBC from the current plans, which include Options subject to vesting conditions as the employees fulfill their duties throughout the vesting period.As of the year-end of 2021, the company had 326.9 million options outstanding with 8.33 remaining contractual life. The options outstanding account for 15.8% of total shares outstanding, slightly better than 2021, at 17.4%. Assuming the options vest and convert evenly in the next eight years, it implies around 39 million shares of annual dilution or 1.8% of the 2022 year-end share count. However, this figure does not take into account new RSU grants.In last year's article, we explored why Palantir's SBC has reached an inflection point. If this inverse relationship persists for another two to three years, Palantir will eventually reach GAAP profitability. Nevertheless, we investors are looking for companies that can add shareholder value; thus, focusing on the revenue growth rate compared to the dilution rate is the key.Additionally, although Palantir increased its share count by a staggering 97% in 2021, there is light at the end of the tunnel. In 2022, the dilutive effect was minor, with only a slight increase in share count of 7%. On the contrary, the revenue growth rate was much faster, and this gap added value to the firm. In general, investors should closely track this metric as the wider this gap gets, the more shareholder value Palantir offers.Strategic Partnerships & CollaborationsPalantir has differentiated from competitors and positioned itself for sustained growth in the government and defense sectors over the long term. Palantir is developing and tailoring its products and services in the commercial segment, creating specialized solutions for specific industries or customizing its existing solutions to fit unique needs. In addition, it targets new industries or geographies and develops marketing strategies, strategic partnerships, and collaborations to reach new customers.For example, Palantir collaborates with WesTrac, a provider of heavy equipment and aftermarket services to Australia's mining and construction sectors. The partnership will see Palantir's Foundry platform deployed across WesTrac's servicing and rebuilding operations centers in Perth. This partnership further expands Palantir's presence in the Australian industrial sector, complementing its long-standing collaboration with Rio Tinto (RIO).Palantir has proactively formed strategic partnerships and collaborations with various companies to expand its reach, diversify its operations, and accelerate growth. With its flagship product, Foundry, Palantir is well-positioned to leverage data to drive better decision-making across organizations, making it an attractive partner for companies in various sectors.Palantir has partnered with Lockheed Martin (LMT) to speed up the delivery of Aegis and future integrated combat system software through Palantir Apollo. The collaboration aims to improve the delivery of software that supports defense systems. Palantir's Apollo platform will enhance the efficiency and accuracy of software delivery for Aegis and other integrated combat systems. This collaboration highlights Palantir's ability to use data analysis and software expertise to support the defense industry.Recent partnerships, such as those with WesTrac, Crisis24, and Tampa General Hospital, demonstrate Palantir's ability to serve industries such as mining, security, healthcare, and construction. These partnerships will likely accelerate the adoption of Palantir's products and services and enable the company to expand its market share.Moreover, Palantir's collaborations with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the US and the Ministry of Health in New South Wales, Australia, have shown that the company can provide valuable tools for public health preparedness, particularly in the face of pandemics.Overall, Palantir's partnerships and collaborations have positioned the company to continue to grow and innovate, with the potential to enter new markets and drive its expansion in existing ones. As a result, it will lead to solid long-term growth in its financial performance and valuations.Additional Risks To ConsiderThe revised growth guidance of 16% revenue growth is nearly half last year's 30% annual growth. Favorably, the Gov segment has shown its resiliency and recession-proof nature throughout 2021, so we shouldn't expect much volatility considering the geopolitical tensions that favor Palantir. On the other hand, even though the Com segment has meaningfully expanded and remains a growth catalyst for PLTR, the macro uncertainty might decelerate its growth in the short run.Criticism for Palantir's collaboration with government agencies, particularly in surveillance and immigration enforcement, poses a significant risk to the stock's price growth. Any public disclosure that Palantir's software has been used to violate privacy rights and target vulnerable populations, such as immigrants and refugees, can severely affect its stock price.Finally, emerging trends in data analytics, such as edge computing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, cloud-based analytics, augmented analytics, and predictive analytics, have boosted market competition. As a result, it could pressure Palantir to lower prices and invest more aggressively in research and development.TakeawayAlthough Palantir has established itself as a significant player in the data analytics market, its business outlook is subject to several risks and uncertainties. Nevertheless, the improving profitability and dilution prospects will strongly support PLTR's market valuation over the long term.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":215,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9957771941,"gmtCreate":1677573864683,"gmtModify":1677573868055,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9957771941","repostId":"1162027611","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1162027611","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1677597942,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1162027611?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-28 23:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba: Diversification Can Launch Next Bull Run","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1162027611","media":"Seekingalpha","summary":"Recent earnings report of Alibaba Group Holding Limited shows a rapidly growing international commer","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>Recent earnings report of Alibaba Group Holding Limited shows a rapidly growing international commerce business with year-on-year growth of 26%.</li><li>Geographical diversification of Alibaba’s revenue base is a bullish trend for the company.</li><li>Alibaba’s Lazada is showing rapid growth in Southeast Asia while Trendyol has become a leading ecommerce player in Turkey.</li></ul><p>The <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BABA\">Alibaba Group Holding Limited</a> recent fiscal Q3 earnings report showed very strong performance in key international markets. The International commerce retail segment had 26% YoY revenue growth compared to negative 1% growth in the China commerce segment. The revenue share of international commerce has increased to 8%.</p><p>Alibaba’s Lazada has seen rapid growth in Southeast Asia, where it is one of the top players in the ecommerce industry. Alibaba also has a majority stake in Trendyol, which operates in Turkey and has gained a massive market share in this region. Funding from Alibaba has also helped these subsidiaries perform better than the competition. Growth of these international operations shows strength of Alibaba’s business model and the flexibility within the company to function in diverse geographies with different regulations. Expansion in new international markets will be one of the key drivers for future growth in Alibaba stock.</p><h3>Importance of international markets</h3><p>The rapid growth of Alibaba in China in the last few years was inevitably going to lead to saturation in this market. The annual active customers on Alibaba’s platforms are already close to 1 billion and it is likely that we would not see any major growth in the customer base in China. Hence, the next driver for Alibaba would be international regions where it is trying to replicate its business model. The total international commerce revenue was $2.8 billion in the recent quarter, which is equal to more than $10 billion on annualized basis. This made up 8% of the total revenue base of Alibaba.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4a3842d8386d9f881600d687126e6d3b\" tg-width=\"1009\" tg-height=\"654\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>International commerce retail segment reported 26% YoY growth, which is one of the highest revenue growth businesses within Alibaba. Most of the contribution is due to Lazada in Southeast Asia and Trendyol in Turkey.</p><h3>Advantages of Alibaba in international regions</h3><p>Alibaba has significant advantages in several international regions. The company can provide massive and sustainable funding to its international operations which allows them to overtake smaller local operators. The international operations also benefit from well-built technological platform of Alibaba which reduces the investment needed to build new platform from scratch. A good example is Lazada in Southeast Asia, which is facing lower competition from <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Limited </a>.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e5581a52655e65d3717b55005c450e9\" tg-width=\"988\" tg-height=\"460\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Key metrics of Sea Limited in the last few quarters. Source: Ycharts.</span></p><p>Sea Limited has market leadership position in Southeast Asia and is the chief rival of Lazada. Wall Street gave the company a higher valuation as long as its revenue growth was strong. However, slowdown in revenue growth and further increase in losses in the last few quarters has led to a staggering decline of over 80% in Sea Limited’s valuation. The company has a market cap of $33 billion compared to $200 billion at its peak.</p><p>The decline in Sea Limited’s valuation will limit the ability of the company to raise new funds. It will also force the company to reduce discounts on its platform which should reduce the competitive pressure on Lazada. At the same time, Alibaba invested over $1 billion in Lazada in 2022 alone. Lazada can rely on long-term sustainable funding from Alibaba, which gives it a massive edge against Sea Limited and should allow it to gain market share in this region.</p><p>A similar factor has played with Trendyol in Turkey. Trendyol which is majority owned by Alibaba has been able to overtake other local rivals in several categories. Ecommerce business requires deep pockets and good technological platform. This should force consolidation in many international regions. Alibaba could become one of the key ecommerce players in several important international markets over the next few years.</p><h3>Europe is the key</h3><p>Alibaba has seen stiff resistance from regulators in India after a border skirmish between China and India in mid-2020. This led to the divestment of almost all the investments made by the company in this region. It is unlikely that Alibaba would make any significant inroads into U.S. due to current geopolitical tensions. This makes Europe the most important market available for Alibaba to expand its operations. Alibaba Cloud has already built several data centers in Europe. Most of the European regulators are more open to Alibaba as it helps them balance the rapid growth of U.S. tech giants like Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), Google (GOOG), and others.</p><p>Alibaba can expand in Europe through Lazada or by buying out some of smaller local players. It is likely that Alibaba will have to face more formidable competition in Europe due to the presence of Amazon and other big retail giants like Aldi, Lidl, Carrefour and others. However, Alibaba has an advantage due to its expertise in ecommerce business and the success it has seen in other international regions. This should help the company in establishing good logistics and create a niche for its own ecommerce platform.</p><h3>Impact on Alibaba stock</h3><p>International growth will become the biggest tailwind for Alibaba in the next few years. The growth runway in this category is huge as the company expands in new markets. It will also allow the company to diversify its revenue base and limit any damage from negative regulatory environment in China. The success in Southeast Asia and Turkey shows that Alibaba’s management can be flexible in building a platform that caters to local customers.</p><p>Alibaba’s international business contributed 8% of the total revenue base in the latest quarter. At the current growth trends, it should easily reach over 20% of the revenue base in the next five years. Over the next decade, the contribution from international operations could eclipse business within China. This will allow the company to become a global player and also gain better margins for important segments like Alibaba Cloud.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69cc09aaf6047359d6a84ceb547f882e\" tg-width=\"989\" tg-height=\"459\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Alibaba’s forward P/E ratio in comparison to JD and PDD. Source: Ycharts.</span></p><p>Alibaba is trading at a lower forward P/E ratio compared to other competitors like JD.com, Inc. (JD) and Pinduoduo (PDD) despite Alibaba having a better international presence. It is likely that in the short term, Alibaba would need to invest heavily in building logistics in international regions. However, this will also help in improving the growth runway for the company and gaining market share. We have already seen the success of this strategy in Southeast Asia where Lazada could soon overthrow Sea Limited from the market leadership position. Long term investors should look at the growth potential of these international operations and the advantage it gives in terms of geographical diversification.</p><h3>Investor Takeaway</h3><p>Alibaba Group Holding Limited has reported a much higher international retail growth compared to its China operations. The revenue share of international operations is 8% and could soon become a sizable number as the company expands in new regions. The company can invest surplus cash in international markets instead of focusing on China where it has already saturated the ecommerce industry.</p><p>Alibaba Group Holding Limited stock is trading at less than 12 times the forward P/E ratio, which is lower than other peers in China like JD and PDD. Both these competitors do not have the scale of international presence that Alibaba has built. Lucrative markets like Europe could also improve the margins for the company and provide a much more predictable regulatory environment for the management. These factors should help Alibaba Group Holding Limited stock gain a strong bullish sentiment in the next few quarters as the revenue share of international business increases.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Alibaba: Diversification Can Launch Next Bull Run</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\">\nAlibaba: Diversification Can Launch Next Bull Run\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-02-28 23:25 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4582496-alibaba-diversification-can-launch-next-bull-run><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Recent earnings report of Alibaba Group Holding Limited shows a rapidly growing international commerce business with year-on-year growth of 26%.Geographical diversification of Alibaba’s revenue base ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4582496-alibaba-diversification-can-launch-next-bull-run\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"09988":"阿里巴巴-W","BABA":"阿里巴巴"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4582496-alibaba-diversification-can-launch-next-bull-run","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1162027611","content_text":"Recent earnings report of Alibaba Group Holding Limited shows a rapidly growing international commerce business with year-on-year growth of 26%.Geographical diversification of Alibaba’s revenue base is a bullish trend for the company.Alibaba’s Lazada is showing rapid growth in Southeast Asia while Trendyol has become a leading ecommerce player in Turkey.The Alibaba Group Holding Limited recent fiscal Q3 earnings report showed very strong performance in key international markets.

These factors should help Alibaba Group Holding Limited stock gain a strong bullish sentiment in the next few quarters as the revenue share of international business increases.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":112,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9957034386,"gmtCreate":1676739672146,"gmtModify":1676739675069,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/GRAB\">$Grab Holdings(GRAB)$&nbsp;</a>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/GRAB\">$Grab Holdings(GRAB)$&nbsp;</a>","text":"$Grab Holdings(GRAB)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9957034386","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":243,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":261117422768296,"gmtCreate":1704759909859,"gmtModify":1704759922132,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/NIU\">$Niu Technologies(NIU)$</a> Help help&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/NIU\">$Niu Technologies(NIU)$</a> Help help&nbsp;","text":"$Niu Technologies(NIU)$ Help help","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/bb7806d1565676c7bfb143087bdaa5a5","width":"1086","height":"1713"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/261117422768296","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":479,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9957771395,"gmtCreate":1677573871418,"gmtModify":1677573875262,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":18,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9957771395","repostId":"1121046489","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1121046489","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1677598116,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1121046489?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-02-28 23:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir: Why I Am Still In","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1121046489","media":"Seekingalpha","summary":"SummaryMr. Market rushed to buy Palantir's \"Profitability\" cover story.

In other words, with $1.9 billion in revenue, Palantir has captured around 4% of the market share.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d15105694344802a87c43460225c3fd6\" tg-width=\"539\" tg-height=\"309\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Revenue Components (Gov Vs. Com)</h3><p>Palantir has expanded its business beyond government contracts to include more commercial clients. This diversification move maintained the company&#39;s consistent strong revenue growth (24% YoY) for 2022 despite macroeconomic adversities, and it expects a continued revenue expansion in 2023. In addition, Palantir&#39;s revenue continued to experience growth over the long term with the expansion of the primary market due to its enhanced engagement in commercial space. However, its limited focus on non-US markets restricts its ability to expand its customer base and revenue streams.</p><p>Specifically, the government segment (Gov) generated 56% of the $1.9 billion revenue in 2022; the rest came from the commercial segment (Com), and the majority of the customers, 61%, were in the US. Favorably, Palantir managed to grow its total customers, however, by 55%, reaching 367 customers by the end of 2022. As a result, the average revenue per customer (ARPC) dropped for a second consecutive year by 20%, down to $5.2 million per customer.</p><p>At first glance, the drop signals that customers do not spend more with the firm on average. However, the drop was due to the notable increase in the commercial segment in 2022 by 28%, reaching 260 Com customers. Specifically, new Com customers start with relatively low contracts of around $2-$3 million, which drags down the overall ARPC. Yet, Com&#39;s growth slowed down from a 24% QoQ increase to 14%, but the overall trend is still favorable.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/390eadd758631fec977ed90487022511\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"144\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Palantir initially started out getting contracts from the US Department of Defense. Despite the slight YoY 1.8% decrease in the number of Gov customers in 2022, the segment&#39;s ARPC remained the same throughout the year under the current challenging macro environment, proving the expanding ARPC and the Gov segment&#39;s recession-proof nature.</p><p>In previous articles, I stressed the importance of the Com segment, which could be the long-term growth driver of Palantir. With 147 Com clients that generated $645 million in 2021, Palantir had a commercial ARPC of $4.39 million, whereas, in 2022, the ARPC dropped to $3.2 million with an $834 million revenue. The decrease was due to sizable customer acquisition with rapid YoY growth of 79% but with smaller contract sizes.</p><p>CEO Alex Karp noted that 53% of Palantir&#39;s business deals are over $50 million. Favorably, the firm&#39;s top 20 customers spent $49.4 million in 2022, reporting a 13.3% YoY increase, supported by the Gov segment. Despite the customer base&#39;s resilient-proof attributes, having a large portion of revenues generated from a few large customers leads to less diversity and exposure to downside and volatility. Nevertheless, the increasing number of commercial customers partly mitigates this risk.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3323b23a643a76b1f6c8b207dfa0416d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Palantir has identified 6000 businesses with yearly revenues of at least $500 million, indicating potential clients with an average contract value of $9.33 million. To that effect, Palantir has achieved a 4.3% customer penetration but has an ARPC potential of nearly 3x. Furthermore, based on Palantir&#39;s &#34;Trojan Horse&#34; business model, many of these new Com customers will likely renew with a higher contract value in the foreseeable future, boosting ARPC levels.</p><p>The company&#39;s reliance on long-term government contracts can be subject to political and budgetary changes, resulting in revenue fluctuations. The company has succeeded in the government and defense sectors but has significant potential to expand its commercial segment and maintain its growth. PLTR&#39;s software license and maintenance fees are its primary revenue streams. These revenue streams have been consistent for years and have provided Palantir with a stable revenue base.</p><p>Palantir also generates revenue through professional services. The revenue stream has been growing in recent years as the company has expanded its customer base and worked to diversify its revenues. While professional services can be a high-margin revenue stream, there is the risk that they may not be as scalable as software licensing because they rely on the availability of highly skilled professionals. Finally, a smaller revenue segment is the platform hosting and support services, which is relatively new and represents a growing opportunity for Palantir as it expands.</p><p>Palantir maintains its growth in the government segment by developing and enhancing solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of government agencies, targeting new government agencies or departments, and developing relationships and partnerships to expand its reach and influence. For example, a £75 million Enterprise Agreement with the UK Ministry of Defense and an extended contract with the US Army Research Lab to deliver AI and ML capabilities provLasegment&#39;s resiliency.</p><p>Last but not least, based on the company&#39;s weighted average contract duration, the firm expects an additional 2.8-year contract duration. Specifically, as per note 15, Palantir&#39;s weighted average useful life stood at 4.85 years, and this enhances the predictability element of Palantir&#39;s revenue.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c901625acc99ee365742f79ad2815a73\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"344\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Questioning Profitability?</h3><p>Karp noted on the latest earnings call:</p><blockquote>We were profitable for the first time in our company&#39;s history last quarter.</blockquote><p>Mr. Market rushed to buy Palantir&#39;s &#34;Profitability&#34; cover story. Palantir reported its first profitable quarter in its 20 years of existence with a $30.9 million positive net income. Some unusual items stand out after digging deeper into the net income breakdown. As per note 14 in the 10-K form, the firm operationally is not profitable yet. Specifically, Palantir has recorded a $44.3 million fair value gain due to the Palantir Japan &#34;step acquisition&#34;. Excluding this item, net income would still be at a loss, but the path to operational profitability has become more evident.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2d2d8264468aa0caaa6c1c3e0f63ff6a\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>SBC Normalization</h3><p>Stock-based compensation (SBC) used to be Palantir&#39;s Achilles heel and a deal breaker for many investors. Last year, Karp explicitly stated that investors could expect normalization in the next 18 to 24 months, as it happened. One of my favorite metrics for Palantir is the SBC-to-Revenue ratio, which has dropped to 30% in 2022 and was the second consecutive annual drop. The decrease was attributable to the inverse movement of 24% YoY revenue growth and the 27% decline in the SBC to $565 million from $779 million in 2021.</p><p>Looking forward, to develop a reasonable expectation for SBC&#39;s trend, the Restricted-Stock-Units (RSU) provides the unrecorded SBC element. Specifically, this is the sum of SBC from the current plans, which include Options subject to vesting conditions as the employees fulfill their duties throughout the vesting period.</p><p>As of the year-end of 2021, the company had 326.9 million options outstanding with 8.33 remaining contractual life. The options outstanding account for 15.8% of total shares outstanding, slightly better than 2021, at 17.4%. Assuming the options vest and convert evenly in the next eight years, it implies around 39 million shares of annual dilution or 1.8% of the 2022 year-end share count. However, this figure does not take into account new RSU grants.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f651afc9903181a4bf4ba52d0ee651d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>In last year&#39;s article, we explored why Palantir&#39;s SBC has reached an inflection point. If this inverse relationship persists for another two to three years, Palantir will eventually reach GAAP profitability. Nevertheless, we investors are looking for companies that can add shareholder value; thus, focusing on the revenue growth rate compared to the dilution rate is the key.</p><p>Additionally, although Palantir increased its share count by a staggering 97% in 2021, there is light at the end of the tunnel. In 2022, the dilutive effect was minor, with only a slight increase in share count of 7%. On the contrary, the revenue growth rate was much faster, and this gap added value to the firm. In general, investors should closely track this metric as the wider this gap gets, the more shareholder value Palantir offers.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30159cf2cee1b27c842c74b5488a2e55\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Strategic Partnerships &amp; Collaborations</h3><p>Palantir has differentiated from competitors and positioned itself for sustained growth in the government and defense sectors over the long term. Palantir is developing and tailoring its products and services in the commercial segment, creating specialized solutions for specific industries or customizing its existing solutions to fit unique needs. In addition, it targets new industries or geographies and develops marketing strategies, strategic partnerships, and collaborations to reach new customers.</p><p>For example, Palantir collaborates with WesTrac, a provider of heavy equipment and aftermarket services to Australia&#39;s mining and construction sectors. The partnership will see Palantir&#39;s Foundry platform deployed across WesTrac&#39;s servicing and rebuilding operations centers in Perth. This partnership further expands Palantir&#39;s presence in the Australian industrial sector, complementing its long-standing collaboration with Rio Tinto (RIO).</p><p>Palantir has proactively formed strategic partnerships and collaborations with various companies to expand its reach, diversify its operations, and accelerate growth. With its flagship product, Foundry, Palantir is well-positioned to leverage data to drive better decision-making across organizations, making it an attractive partner for companies in various sectors.</p><p>Palantir has partnered with Lockheed Martin (LMT) to speed up the delivery of Aegis and future integrated combat system software through Palantir Apollo. The collaboration aims to improve the delivery of software that supports defense systems. Palantir&#39;s Apollo platform will enhance the efficiency and accuracy of software delivery for Aegis and other integrated combat systems. This collaboration highlights Palantir&#39;s ability to use data analysis and software expertise to support the defense industry.</p><p>Recent partnerships, such as those with WesTrac, Crisis24, and Tampa General Hospital, demonstrate Palantir&#39;s ability to serve industries such as mining, security, healthcare, and construction. These partnerships will likely accelerate the adoption of Palantir&#39;s products and services and enable the company to expand its market share.</p><p>Moreover, Palantir&#39;s collaborations with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the US and the Ministry of Health in New South Wales, Australia, have shown that the company can provide valuable tools for public health preparedness, particularly in the face of pandemics.</p><p>Overall, Palantir&#39;s partnerships and collaborations have positioned the company to continue to grow and innovate, with the potential to enter new markets and drive its expansion in existing ones. As a result, it will lead to solid long-term growth in its financial performance and valuations.</p><h3>Additional Risks To Consider</h3><p>The revised growth guidance of 16% revenue growth is nearly half last year&#39;s 30% annual growth. Favorably, the Gov segment has shown its resiliency and recession-proof nature throughout 2021, so we shouldn&#39;t expect much volatility considering the geopolitical tensions that favor Palantir. On the other hand, even though the Com segment has meaningfully expanded and remains a growth catalyst for PLTR, the macro uncertainty might decelerate its growth in the short run.</p><p>Criticism for Palantir&#39;s collaboration with government agencies, particularly in surveillance and immigration enforcement, poses a significant risk to the stock&#39;s price growth. Any public disclosure that Palantir&#39;s software has been used to violate privacy rights and target vulnerable populations, such as immigrants and refugees, can severely affect its stock price.</p><p>Finally, emerging trends in data analytics, such as edge computing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, cloud-based analytics, augmented analytics, and predictive analytics, have boosted market competition. As a result, it could pressure Palantir to lower prices and invest more aggressively in research and development.</p><h3><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2a4f5bab4bc3bab1ae1fa7c2c0bc0ad3\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Takeaway</h3><p>Although Palantir has established itself as a significant player in the data analytics market, its business outlook is subject to several risks and uncertainties. Nevertheless, the improving profitability and dilution prospects will strongly support PLTR&#39;s market valuation over the long term.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Palantir: Why I Am Still In</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nPalantir: Why I Am Still In\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-02-28 23:28 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4582503-palantir-why-i-am-still-in><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryMr. Market rushed to buy Palantir's \"Profitability\" cover story.

Surprisingly, PLTR announced its first profitable quarter in Q4, which marks a new era for the firm. However, following the spike in the stock price above $10/share, the rally was short-lived as many investors rushed to exit.Important Distinction TAM Vs. SOMAs previously examined in the company's S-1 filings, Palantir has a total addressable market (TAM) of $119 billion, but the firm did not update its TAM beyond that figure. According to Slintel, Palantir's current low market penetration is around 1.78%, suggesting the company has considerably more room for growth.According to a report from Precedence Research, the global market size for data analytics will continue to grow at an impressive CAGR of 30.41% from 2022-2030 and is expected to hit $346.33 billion in 2030. To that effect, the rapidly increasing demand for data analytics services and solutions worldwide will benefit Palantir's financial performance over the long term by expanding its TAM.Although there is some disagreement regarding Palantir's TAM of $119 billion compared to its serviceable obtainable market (SOM), my best estimate for Palantir's medium-term SOM ranges between $40-$50 billion, consisting of data visualization, predictive analytics, and fraud analytics.

The decrease was due to sizable customer acquisition with rapid YoY growth of 79% but with smaller contract sizes.CEO Alex Karp noted that 53% of Palantir's business deals are over $50 million. Favorably, the firm's top 20 customers spent $49.4 million in 2022, reporting a 13.3% YoY increase, supported by the Gov segment. Despite the customer base's resilient-proof attributes, having a large portion of revenues generated from a few large customers leads to less diversity and exposure to downside and volatility. Nevertheless, the increasing number of commercial customers partly mitigates this risk.Palantir has identified 6000 businesses with yearly revenues of at least $500 million, indicating potential clients with an average contract value of $9.33 million. To that effect, Palantir has achieved a 4.3% customer penetration but has an ARPC potential of nearly 3x. Furthermore, based on Palantir's \"Trojan Horse\" business model, many of these new Com customers will likely renew with a higher contract value in the foreseeable future, boosting ARPC levels.The company's reliance on long-term government contracts can be subject to political and budgetary changes, resulting in revenue fluctuations. The company has succeeded in the government and defense sectors but has significant potential to expand its commercial segment and maintain its growth. PLTR's software license and maintenance fees are its primary revenue streams. These revenue streams have been consistent for years and have provided Palantir with a stable revenue base.Palantir also generates revenue through professional services. The revenue stream has been growing in recent years as the company has expanded its customer base and worked to diversify its revenues. While professional services can be a high-margin revenue stream, there is the risk that they may not be as scalable as software licensing because they rely on the availability of highly skilled professionals. Finally, a smaller revenue segment is the platform hosting and support services, which is relatively new and represents a growing opportunity for Palantir as it expands.Palantir maintains its growth in the government segment by developing and enhancing solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of government agencies, targeting new government agencies or departments, and developing relationships and partnerships to expand its reach and influence. For example, a £75 million Enterprise Agreement with the UK Ministry of Defense and an extended contract with the US Army Research Lab to deliver AI and ML capabilities provLasegment's resiliency.Last but not least, based on the company's weighted average contract duration, the firm expects an additional 2.8-year contract duration. Specifically, as per note 15, Palantir's weighted average useful life stood at 4.85 years, and this enhances the predictability element of Palantir's revenue.Questioning Profitability?Karp noted on the latest earnings call:We were profitable for the first time in our company's history last quarter.Mr. Market rushed to buy Palantir's \"Profitability\" cover story. Palantir reported its first profitable quarter in its 20 years of existence with a $30.9 million positive net income. Some unusual items stand out after digging deeper into the net income breakdown. As per note 14 in the 10-K form, the firm operationally is not profitable yet. Specifically, Palantir has recorded a $44.3 million fair value gain due to the Palantir Japan \"step acquisition\". Excluding this item, net income would still be at a loss, but the path to operational profitability has become more evident.SBC NormalizationStock-based compensation (SBC) used to be Palantir's Achilles heel and a deal breaker for many investors. Last year, Karp explicitly stated that investors could expect normalization in the next 18 to 24 months, as it happened. One of my favorite metrics for Palantir is the SBC-to-Revenue ratio, which has dropped to 30% in 2022 and was the second consecutive annual drop. The decrease was attributable to the inverse movement of 24% YoY revenue growth and the 27% decline in the SBC to $565 million from $779 million in 2021.Looking forward, to develop a reasonable expectation for SBC's trend, the Restricted-Stock-Units (RSU) provides the unrecorded SBC element. Specifically, this is the sum of SBC from the current plans, which include Options subject to vesting conditions as the employees fulfill their duties throughout the vesting period.As of the year-end of 2021, the company had 326.9 million options outstanding with 8.33 remaining contractual life. The options outstanding account for 15.8% of total shares outstanding, slightly better than 2021, at 17.4%. Assuming the options vest and convert evenly in the next eight years, it implies around 39 million shares of annual dilution or 1.8% of the 2022 year-end share count. However, this figure does not take into account new RSU grants.In last year's article, we explored why Palantir's SBC has reached an inflection point. If this inverse relationship persists for another two to three years, Palantir will eventually reach GAAP profitability. Nevertheless, we investors are looking for companies that can add shareholder value; thus, focusing on the revenue growth rate compared to the dilution rate is the key.Additionally, although Palantir increased its share count by a staggering 97% in 2021, there is light at the end of the tunnel. In 2022, the dilutive effect was minor, with only a slight increase in share count of 7%. On the contrary, the revenue growth rate was much faster, and this gap added value to the firm. In general, investors should closely track this metric as the wider this gap gets, the more shareholder value Palantir offers.Strategic Partnerships & CollaborationsPalantir has differentiated from competitors and positioned itself for sustained growth in the government and defense sectors over the long term. Palantir is developing and tailoring its products and services in the commercial segment, creating specialized solutions for specific industries or customizing its existing solutions to fit unique needs. In addition, it targets new industries or geographies and develops marketing strategies, strategic partnerships, and collaborations to reach new customers.For example, Palantir collaborates with WesTrac, a provider of heavy equipment and aftermarket services to Australia's mining and construction sectors. The partnership will see Palantir's Foundry platform deployed across WesTrac's servicing and rebuilding operations centers in Perth. This partnership further expands Palantir's presence in the Australian industrial sector, complementing its long-standing collaboration with Rio Tinto (RIO).Palantir has proactively formed strategic partnerships and collaborations with various companies to expand its reach, diversify its operations, and accelerate growth. With its flagship product, Foundry, Palantir is well-positioned to leverage data to drive better decision-making across organizations, making it an attractive partner for companies in various sectors.Palantir has partnered with Lockheed Martin (LMT) to speed up the delivery of Aegis and future integrated combat system software through Palantir Apollo. The collaboration aims to improve the delivery of software that supports defense systems. Palantir's Apollo platform will enhance the efficiency and accuracy of software delivery for Aegis and other integrated combat systems. This collaboration highlights Palantir's ability to use data analysis and software expertise to support the defense industry.Recent partnerships, such as those with WesTrac, Crisis24, and Tampa General Hospital, demonstrate Palantir's ability to serve industries such as mining, security, healthcare, and construction. These partnerships will likely accelerate the adoption of Palantir's products and services and enable the company to expand its market share.Moreover, Palantir's collaborations with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the US and the Ministry of Health in New South Wales, Australia, have shown that the company can provide valuable tools for public health preparedness, particularly in the face of pandemics.Overall, Palantir's partnerships and collaborations have positioned the company to continue to grow and innovate, with the potential to enter new markets and drive its expansion in existing ones. As a result, it will lead to solid long-term growth in its financial performance and valuations.Additional Risks To ConsiderThe revised growth guidance of 16% revenue growth is nearly half last year's 30% annual growth. Favorably, the Gov segment has shown its resiliency and recession-proof nature throughout 2021, so we shouldn't expect much volatility considering the geopolitical tensions that favor Palantir. On the other hand, even though the Com segment has meaningfully expanded and remains a growth catalyst for PLTR, the macro uncertainty might decelerate its growth in the short run.Criticism for Palantir's collaboration with government agencies, particularly in surveillance and immigration enforcement, poses a significant risk to the stock's price growth. Any public disclosure that Palantir's software has been used to violate privacy rights and target vulnerable populations, such as immigrants and refugees, can severely affect its stock price.Finally, emerging trends in data analytics, such as edge computing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, cloud-based analytics, augmented analytics, and predictive analytics, have boosted market competition. As a result, it could pressure Palantir to lower prices and invest more aggressively in research and development.TakeawayAlthough Palantir has established itself as a significant player in the data analytics market, its business outlook is subject to several risks and uncertainties. Nevertheless, the improving profitability and dilution prospects will strongly support PLTR's market valuation over the long term.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":215,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9952363452,"gmtCreate":1674465702977,"gmtModify":1676538941496,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":18,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9952363452","repostId":"2305604719","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2305604719","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1674488021,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2305604719?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-01-23 23:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wells Fargo, Disney, and 10 Other Stocks Value Investors Are Watching Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2305604719","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"By Nicholas Jasinski \n\n\n     Sometimes, being a value investor means going where others prefer not t","content":"<font class=\"NormalMinus1\" face=\"Arial\">\n<pre>\nBy Nicholas Jasinski \n</pre>\n<p>\n     Sometimes, being a value investor means going where others prefer not to go. \n</p>\n<p>\n     For some, that means wading into controversial situations in which a business is unloved due to past transgressions. That describes Wells Fargo (ticker: WFC) and Walt Disney <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DIS\">$(DIS)$</a>, says Aaron Dunn, co-head of the value equity team at Eaton Vance. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Wells Fargo, which dropped 1.1% this past week, has been subject to a Federal Reserve-mandated asset cap since 2018 and has paid fines to settle charges of illegal conduct. Its recent earnings report revealed that profits had been cut in half. But the stock trades for nine times 2023 estimated earnings and one time book value, versus about 10.5 times and 1.4 times, respectively, for JPMorgan Chase <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JPM\">$(JPM)$</a>, which lacks the same drama -- and that makes it attractive. \n</p>\n<p>\n     \"There's a lot of internal change and cost cutting that the management team is bringing in [at Wells Fargo], and you have a relative-valuation tailwind,\" says Dunn, who co-manages the Eaton Vance Value Opportunities fund (EAFVX). \n</p>\n<p>\n     He's also a fan of Disney, which this past week rebuked activist investor Nelson Peltz, who has pointed out that earnings have tumbled and the stock has lagged the market in recent years. Dunn expects firmwide cost cutting and a more balanced approach to growth and profitability at Disney+ under newly reinstalled CEO Bob Iger, clearing the path to an eventual reinstatement of the stock's dividend. Disney stock gained 3.8% this past week as Netflix <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NFLX\">$(NFLX)$</a> results eased concerns around streaming, but is still down 30% over the past 12 months. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Another place to seek out value is in stocks that are just too complex for many investors to bother with. Some are companies structured as partnerships, not corporations, which complicates taxes, among other issues. Calumet Specialty Products Partners <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CLMT\">$(CLMT)$</a> refines oil into a variety of consumer and industrial products and produces \"renewable diesel\" from soybeans in Montana. Energy Transfer <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ET\">$(ET)$</a> owns tens of thousands of miles of natural-gas pipelines and offers an 8.5% dividend yield. Both partnerships are among the top holdings in the Frank Value fund (FRNKX). \n</p>\n<p>\n     Stocks that have been shunned by certain investors are also worth a look, says Brian Frank, chief investment officer of Frank Funds. He points to \"sin stocks\" like Philip Morris International <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PM\">$(PM)$</a> and Altria Group <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MO\">$(MO)$</a>, which make tobacco products. Philip Morris, a Barron's pick earlier this month , trades for 17.5 times 2023 expected earnings and Altria trades for 8.9 times, both discounts to the consumer-staples average but with the same recession-proof attributes. Altria has an 8.4% dividend yield, and Philip Morris yields about 5%. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Then there are energy stocks, where Dunn and Frank both see value. Dunn's largest holding as of Nov. 30 was ConocoPhillips <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/COP\">$(COP)$</a>, with Halliburton <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HAL.UK\">$(HAL.UK)$</a> also in the portfolio. Frank owns shares of refiner CVR Energy <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CVI\">$(CVI)$</a>, oil-field services companies NOW <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DNOW\">$(DNOW)$</a>, and NexTier Oilfield Solutions <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NEX\">$(NEX)$</a>. \n</p>\n<p>\n     It might seem odd to own energy stocks heading into a recession, but balance sheets are solid and the stocks have cheap earnings multiples and high dividend yields, Frank says.

That describes Wells Fargo (ticker: WFC) and Walt Disney $(DIS)$, says Aaron Dunn, co-head of the value equity team at Eaton Vance. \n\n\n     Wells Fargo, which dropped 1.1% this past week, has been subject to a Federal Reserve-mandated asset cap since 2018 and has paid fines to settle charges of illegal conduct. Its recent earnings report revealed that profits had been cut in half. But the stock trades for nine times 2023 estimated earnings and one time book value, versus about 10.5 times and 1.4 times, respectively, for JPMorgan Chase $(JPM)$, which lacks the same drama -- and that makes it attractive. \n\n\n     \"There's a lot of internal change and cost cutting that the management team is bringing in [at Wells Fargo], and you have a relative-valuation tailwind,\" says Dunn, who co-manages the Eaton Vance Value Opportunities fund (EAFVX). \n\n\n     He's also a fan of Disney, which this past week rebuked activist investor Nelson Peltz, who has pointed out that earnings have tumbled and the stock has lagged the market in recent years. Dunn expects firmwide cost cutting and a more balanced approach to growth and profitability at Disney+ under newly reinstalled CEO Bob Iger, clearing the path to an eventual reinstatement of the stock's dividend. Disney stock gained 3.8% this past week as Netflix $(NFLX)$ results eased concerns around streaming, but is still down 30% over the past 12 months. \n\n\n     Another place to seek out value is in stocks that are just too complex for many investors to bother with. Some are companies structured as partnerships, not corporations, which complicates taxes, among other issues. Calumet Specialty Products Partners $(CLMT)$ refines oil into a variety of consumer and industrial products and produces \"renewable diesel\" from soybeans in Montana. Energy Transfer $(ET)$ owns tens of thousands of miles of natural-gas pipelines and offers an 8.5% dividend yield. Both partnerships are among the top holdings in the Frank Value fund (FRNKX). \n\n\n     Stocks that have been shunned by certain investors are also worth a look, says Brian Frank, chief investment officer of Frank Funds. He points to \"sin stocks\" like Philip Morris International $(PM)$ and Altria Group $(MO)$, which make tobacco products. Philip Morris, a Barron's pick earlier this month , trades for 17.5 times 2023 expected earnings and Altria trades for 8.9 times, both discounts to the consumer-staples average but with the same recession-proof attributes. Altria has an 8.4% dividend yield, and Philip Morris yields about 5%. \n\n\n     Then there are energy stocks, where Dunn and Frank both see value. Dunn's largest holding as of Nov. 30 was ConocoPhillips $(COP)$, with Halliburton $(HAL.UK)$ also in the portfolio. Frank owns shares of refiner CVR Energy $(CVI)$, oil-field services companies NOW $(DNOW)$, and NexTier Oilfield Solutions $(NEX)$. \n\n\n     It might seem odd to own energy stocks heading into a recession, but balance sheets are solid and the stocks have cheap earnings multiples and high dividend yields, Frank says. Supply growth should be constrained, keeping oil prices aloft more than usual. \n\n\n     There's value there. \n\n\n     Corrections & amplifications: Aaron Dunn is the co-head of Eaton Vance's value equity team. A previous version of a photo caption in this article misnamed him. \n\n\n     Write to Nicholas Jasinski at nicholas.jasinski@barrons.com \n\n\n \n\n\n  (END) Dow Jones Newswires\n\n\n  January 23, 2023 15:27 ET (20:27 GMT)\n\n\n  Copyright (c) 2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":63,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9948801615,"gmtCreate":1680659319838,"gmtModify":1680659323575,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Greta","listText":"Greta","text":"Greta","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":15,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9948801615","repostId":"2325438792","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2325438792","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1680648766,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2325438792?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-04-05 06:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street Ends Down As Weak Economic Data Fuels Recession Fears","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2325438792","media":"Reuters","summary":"*U.S. factory orders, job openings fall in February*Virgin Orbit slumps after filing for bankruptcy*","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>*U.S. factory orders, job openings fall in February</p><p>*Virgin Orbit slumps after filing for bankruptcy</p><p>*AMC Entertainment falls after litigation deal</p><p>*Indexes: S&amp;P 500 -0.58%, Nasdaq -0.52%, Dow -0.59%</p><p>April 4 (Reuters) - Wall Street closed lower on Tuesday after evidence of a cooling economy exacerbated worries that the Federal Reserve&#39;s campaign to rein in decades-high inflation may cause a deep downturn.</p><p>All three major indexes fell as data showed U.S. job openings in February dropped to the lowest level in nearly two years, suggesting that the labor market was cooling, while factory orders fell for a second straight month.</p><p>Data on Monday had also pointed to weakening U.S. manufacturing activity.</p><p>&#34;The number of job openings has decreased, which makes people worry that hiring is going too slow, and that will be bad for the economy.

The International commerce retail segment had 26% YoY revenue growth compared to negative 1% growth in the China commerce segment. The revenue share of international commerce has increased to 8%.</p><p>Alibaba’s Lazada has seen rapid growth in Southeast Asia, where it is one of the top players in the ecommerce industry. Alibaba also has a majority stake in Trendyol, which operates in Turkey and has gained a massive market share in this region. Funding from Alibaba has also helped these subsidiaries perform better than the competition. Growth of these international operations shows strength of Alibaba’s business model and the flexibility within the company to function in diverse geographies with different regulations. Expansion in new international markets will be one of the key drivers for future growth in Alibaba stock.</p><h3>Importance of international markets</h3><p>The rapid growth of Alibaba in China in the last few years was inevitably going to lead to saturation in this market. The annual active customers on Alibaba’s platforms are already close to 1 billion and it is likely that we would not see any major growth in the customer base in China. Hence, the next driver for Alibaba would be international regions where it is trying to replicate its business model. The total international commerce revenue was $2.8 billion in the recent quarter, which is equal to more than $10 billion on annualized basis. This made up 8% of the total revenue base of Alibaba.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4a3842d8386d9f881600d687126e6d3b\" tg-width=\"1009\" tg-height=\"654\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>International commerce retail segment reported 26% YoY growth, which is one of the highest revenue growth businesses within Alibaba. Most of the contribution is due to Lazada in Southeast Asia and Trendyol in Turkey.</p><h3>Advantages of Alibaba in international regions</h3><p>Alibaba has significant advantages in several international regions. The company can provide massive and sustainable funding to its international operations which allows them to overtake smaller local operators. The international operations also benefit from well-built technological platform of Alibaba which reduces the investment needed to build new platform from scratch. A good example is Lazada in Southeast Asia, which is facing lower competition from <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Limited </a>.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e5581a52655e65d3717b55005c450e9\" tg-width=\"988\" tg-height=\"460\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Key metrics of Sea Limited in the last few quarters. Source: Ycharts.</span></p><p>Sea Limited has market leadership position in Southeast Asia and is the chief rival of Lazada. Wall Street gave the company a higher valuation as long as its revenue growth was strong. However, slowdown in revenue growth and further increase in losses in the last few quarters has led to a staggering decline of over 80% in Sea Limited’s valuation. The company has a market cap of $33 billion compared to $200 billion at its peak.</p><p>The decline in Sea Limited’s valuation will limit the ability of the company to raise new funds. It will also force the company to reduce discounts on its platform which should reduce the competitive pressure on Lazada. At the same time, Alibaba invested over $1 billion in Lazada in 2022 alone. Lazada can rely on long-term sustainable funding from Alibaba, which gives it a massive edge against Sea Limited and should allow it to gain market share in this region.</p><p>A similar factor has played with Trendyol in Turkey. Trendyol which is majority owned by Alibaba has been able to overtake other local rivals in several categories. Ecommerce business requires deep pockets and good technological platform. This should force consolidation in many international regions. Alibaba could become one of the key ecommerce players in several important international markets over the next few years.</p><h3>Europe is the key</h3><p>Alibaba has seen stiff resistance from regulators in India after a border skirmish between China and India in mid-2020. This led to the divestment of almost all the investments made by the company in this region. It is unlikely that Alibaba would make any significant inroads into U.S. due to current geopolitical tensions. This makes Europe the most important market available for Alibaba to expand its operations. Alibaba Cloud has already built several data centers in Europe. Most of the European regulators are more open to Alibaba as it helps them balance the rapid growth of U.S. tech giants like Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), Google (GOOG), and others.</p><p>Alibaba can expand in Europe through Lazada or by buying out some of smaller local players. It is likely that Alibaba will have to face more formidable competition in Europe due to the presence of Amazon and other big retail giants like Aldi, Lidl, Carrefour and others. However, Alibaba has an advantage due to its expertise in ecommerce business and the success it has seen in other international regions. This should help the company in establishing good logistics and create a niche for its own ecommerce platform.</p><h3>Impact on Alibaba stock</h3><p>International growth will become the biggest tailwind for Alibaba in the next few years. The growth runway in this category is huge as the company expands in new markets. It will also allow the company to diversify its revenue base and limit any damage from negative regulatory environment in China. The success in Southeast Asia and Turkey shows that Alibaba’s management can be flexible in building a platform that caters to local customers.</p><p>Alibaba’s international business contributed 8% of the total revenue base in the latest quarter. At the current growth trends, it should easily reach over 20% of the revenue base in the next five years. Over the next decade, the contribution from international operations could eclipse business within China. This will allow the company to become a global player and also gain better margins for important segments like Alibaba Cloud.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69cc09aaf6047359d6a84ceb547f882e\" tg-width=\"989\" tg-height=\"459\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Alibaba’s forward P/E ratio in comparison to JD and PDD. Source: Ycharts.</span></p><p>Alibaba is trading at a lower forward P/E ratio compared to other competitors like JD.com, Inc. (JD) and Pinduoduo (PDD) despite Alibaba having a better international presence. It is likely that in the short term, Alibaba would need to invest heavily in building logistics in international regions. However, this will also help in improving the growth runway for the company and gaining market share. We have already seen the success of this strategy in Southeast Asia where Lazada could soon overthrow Sea Limited from the market leadership position. Long term investors should look at the growth potential of these international operations and the advantage it gives in terms of geographical diversification.</p><h3>Investor Takeaway</h3><p>Alibaba Group Holding Limited has reported a much higher international retail growth compared to its China operations. The revenue share of international operations is 8% and could soon become a sizable number as the company expands in new regions. The company can invest surplus cash in international markets instead of focusing on China where it has already saturated the ecommerce industry.</p><p>Alibaba Group Holding Limited stock is trading at less than 12 times the forward P/E ratio, which is lower than other peers in China like JD and PDD. Both these competitors do not have the scale of international presence that Alibaba has built. Lucrative markets like Europe could also improve the margins for the company and provide a much more predictable regulatory environment for the management. These factors should help Alibaba Group Holding Limited stock gain a strong bullish sentiment in the next few quarters as the revenue share of international business increases.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Alibaba: Diversification Can Launch Next Bull Run</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\">\nAlibaba: Diversification Can Launch Next Bull Run\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-02-28 23:25 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4582496-alibaba-diversification-can-launch-next-bull-run><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Recent earnings report of Alibaba Group Holding Limited shows a rapidly growing international commerce business with year-on-year growth of 26%.Geographical diversification of Alibaba’s revenue base ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4582496-alibaba-diversification-can-launch-next-bull-run\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"09988":"阿里巴巴-W","BABA":"阿里巴巴"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4582496-alibaba-diversification-can-launch-next-bull-run","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1162027611","content_text":"Recent earnings report of Alibaba Group Holding Limited shows a rapidly growing international commerce business with year-on-year growth of 26%.Geographical diversification of Alibaba’s revenue base is a bullish trend for the company.Alibaba’s Lazada is showing rapid growth in Southeast Asia while Trendyol has become a leading ecommerce player in Turkey.The Alibaba Group Holding Limited recent fiscal Q3 earnings report showed very strong performance in key international markets. The International commerce retail segment had 26% YoY revenue growth compared to negative 1% growth in the China commerce segment. The revenue share of international commerce has increased to 8%.Alibaba’s Lazada has seen rapid growth in Southeast Asia, where it is one of the top players in the ecommerce industry. Alibaba also has a majority stake in Trendyol, which operates in Turkey and has gained a massive market share in this region. Funding from Alibaba has also helped these subsidiaries perform better than the competition. Growth of these international operations shows strength of Alibaba’s business model and the flexibility within the company to function in diverse geographies with different regulations. Expansion in new international markets will be one of the key drivers for future growth in Alibaba stock.Importance of international marketsThe rapid growth of Alibaba in China in the last few years was inevitably going to lead to saturation in this market. The annual active customers on Alibaba’s platforms are already close to 1 billion and it is likely that we would not see any major growth in the customer base in China. Hence, the next driver for Alibaba would be international regions where it is trying to replicate its business model. The total international commerce revenue was $2.8 billion in the recent quarter, which is equal to more than $10 billion on annualized basis. This made up 8% of the total revenue base of Alibaba.International commerce retail segment reported 26% YoY growth, which is one of the highest revenue growth businesses within Alibaba. Most of the contribution is due to Lazada in Southeast Asia and Trendyol in Turkey.Advantages of Alibaba in international regionsAlibaba has significant advantages in several international regions. The company can provide massive and sustainable funding to its international operations which allows them to overtake smaller local operators. The international operations also benefit from well-built technological platform of Alibaba which reduces the investment needed to build new platform from scratch. A good example is Lazada in Southeast Asia, which is facing lower competition from Sea Limited .Key metrics of Sea Limited in the last few quarters. Source: Ycharts.Sea Limited has market leadership position in Southeast Asia and is the chief rival of Lazada. Wall Street gave the company a higher valuation as long as its revenue growth was strong. However, slowdown in revenue growth and further increase in losses in the last few quarters has led to a staggering decline of over 80% in Sea Limited’s valuation. The company has a market cap of $33 billion compared to $200 billion at its peak.The decline in Sea Limited’s valuation will limit the ability of the company to raise new funds. It will also force the company to reduce discounts on its platform which should reduce the competitive pressure on Lazada. At the same time, Alibaba invested over $1 billion in Lazada in 2022 alone. Lazada can rely on long-term sustainable funding from Alibaba, which gives it a massive edge against Sea Limited and should allow it to gain market share in this region.A similar factor has played with Trendyol in Turkey. Trendyol which is majority owned by Alibaba has been able to overtake other local rivals in several categories. Ecommerce business requires deep pockets and good technological platform. This should force consolidation in many international regions. Alibaba could become one of the key ecommerce players in several important international markets over the next few years.Europe is the keyAlibaba has seen stiff resistance from regulators in India after a border skirmish between China and India in mid-2020. This led to the divestment of almost all the investments made by the company in this region. It is unlikely that Alibaba would make any significant inroads into U.S. due to current geopolitical tensions. This makes Europe the most important market available for Alibaba to expand its operations. Alibaba Cloud has already built several data centers in Europe. Most of the European regulators are more open to Alibaba as it helps them balance the rapid growth of U.S. tech giants like Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), Google (GOOG), and others.Alibaba can expand in Europe through Lazada or by buying out some of smaller local players. It is likely that Alibaba will have to face more formidable competition in Europe due to the presence of Amazon and other big retail giants like Aldi, Lidl, Carrefour and others. However, Alibaba has an advantage due to its expertise in ecommerce business and the success it has seen in other international regions. This should help the company in establishing good logistics and create a niche for its own ecommerce platform.Impact on Alibaba stockInternational growth will become the biggest tailwind for Alibaba in the next few years. The growth runway in this category is huge as the company expands in new markets. It will also allow the company to diversify its revenue base and limit any damage from negative regulatory environment in China. The success in Southeast Asia and Turkey shows that Alibaba’s management can be flexible in building a platform that caters to local customers.Alibaba’s international business contributed 8% of the total revenue base in the latest quarter. At the current growth trends, it should easily reach over 20% of the revenue base in the next five years. Over the next decade, the contribution from international operations could eclipse business within China. This will allow the company to become a global player and also gain better margins for important segments like Alibaba Cloud.Alibaba’s forward P/E ratio in comparison to JD and PDD. Source: Ycharts.Alibaba is trading at a lower forward P/E ratio compared to other competitors like JD.com, Inc. (JD) and Pinduoduo (PDD) despite Alibaba having a better international presence. It is likely that in the short term, Alibaba would need to invest heavily in building logistics in international regions. However, this will also help in improving the growth runway for the company and gaining market share. We have already seen the success of this strategy in Southeast Asia where Lazada could soon overthrow Sea Limited from the market leadership position. Long term investors should look at the growth potential of these international operations and the advantage it gives in terms of geographical diversification.Investor TakeawayAlibaba Group Holding Limited has reported a much higher international retail growth compared to its China operations. The revenue share of international operations is 8% and could soon become a sizable number as the company expands in new regions. The company can invest surplus cash in international markets instead of focusing on China where it has already saturated the ecommerce industry.Alibaba Group Holding Limited stock is trading at less than 12 times the forward P/E ratio, which is lower than other peers in China like JD and PDD. Both these competitors do not have the scale of international presence that Alibaba has built. Lucrative markets like Europe could also improve the margins for the company and provide a much more predictable regulatory environment for the management. These factors should help Alibaba Group Holding Limited stock gain a strong bullish sentiment in the next few quarters as the revenue share of international business increases.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":112,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":891459055,"gmtCreate":1628415645577,"gmtModify":1703506057892,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wooo","listText":"Wooo","text":"Wooo","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/891459055","repostId":"2157901414","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2157901414","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com

get enough of Tesla Inc.</p><p>In recent weeks, they have scooped up shares of Elon Musk&#39;s electric-vehicle maker at a frenzied pace, setting repeated records for one-day purchases. Already in 2023, they have spent a net $13.6 billion on Tesla shares, approaching the record sum of nearly $17 billion for all of last year, according to Vanda Research.</p><p>Their interest in Tesla dwarfs that in any other security, by far.</p><p>&#34;The aggregate retail inflows into Tesla have never been higher,&#34; said Giacomo Pierantoni, head of data at Vanda, who added that buying among individual investors has likely contributed to the 55% jump in the stock price this year.</p><p>Tesla investors have a reputation for being loyal. They raced to buy the dip last year when the stock was cratering, and continued piling in after it bottomed on Jan. 3. As Wednesday&#39;s much-anticipated investor day approached, buying set fresh records.</p><p>The five-day moving average of individual investors&#39; net one-day purchases hit roughly $460 million in the last week of February, according to Vanda. The average for the-next-most-popular security, the SPDR S&amp;P 500 exchange-traded fund, was just under $150 million.</p><p>Three securities followed: the Invesco QQQ ETF, a Nasdaq-100 tracker; Apple Inc.; and Amazon.com Inc., with interest at just a fraction of those levels.</p><p>Individual investors poured more than $500 million into Tesla shares on Wednesday ahead of the investor day, which kicked off at 4 p.m. ET. The event largely failed to live up to its hype. Some investors had hoped a new, less-costly vehicle would be announced, to no avail. Plus, the company said it might need to spend nearly $150 billion in the coming years to achieve its long-term goal of becoming the world&#39;s largest car maker by volume.</p><p>Although the stock tumbled 5.9% to $190.90 on Thursday, investors have used previous downturns as a chance to buy shares on discount. Tesla shares are still down more than 50% from their November 2021 record of $409.97.</p><p>Durga Bobba, an investor who works in vaccine marketing at a pharmaceutical company, said he bought Tesla shares for the first time in December. Mr. Bobba, who splits his time between San Francisco and Philadelphia, had been interested in Tesla for a while and said he saw an attractive entry point late last year after researching its financials. &#34;I saw the stock go to a multiyear low and thought, &#39;If I&#39;m ever going to do it, now&#39;s the time,&#39; &#34; said Mr. Bobba.</p><p>&#34;I&#39;m a marketing guy, and the broad appeal was the No. 1 reason I bought Tesla,&#34; he added. &#34;People love it, regardless of age and gender.&#34;</p><p>Mr. Bobba is one of many recent buyers sitting on substantial gains. &#34;I bought it for about $110 a share and I&#39;m very happy,&#34; he said. &#34;I probably will never sell.&#34;</p><p>Tesla shares currently trade at roughly 43 times the company&#39;s projected earnings over the next 12 months, far off their peak of more than 200 times earnings, according to FactSet. During the selloff late last year, Tesla&#39;s multiple approached 19.</p><p>In comparison, the multiples for General Motors Co., Ford Motor Co. and the S&amp;P 500 are 6.4, 8 and 17.5, respectively.</p><p>The Federal Reserve&#39;s campaign to raise interest rates changed the calculus for Tesla and other growth stocks last year. The stock came under further pressure as 2022 drew to a close when Tesla slashed car prices and investors grew more concerned that Mr. Musk was distracted with his newly acquired Twitter Inc. The shares ended the year down 65%, their worst annual decline so far.</p><p>They have rebounded in 2023 along with some of the market&#39;s other most speculative investments, such as bitcoin and Cathie Wood&#39;s <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARKK\">ARK Innovation ETF</a>.</p><p>Recent trading in Tesla has stood out even compared with the pandemic-era frenzy of 2020 and 2021, said Anthony Denier, chief executive of online brokerage Webull Financial LLC.</p><p>&#34;Tesla reigns supreme on our platform,&#34; Mr. Denier said. &#34;We&#39;ve seen a huge spike in volume since December.&#34;</p><p>The proportion of accounts at Webull trading Tesla climbed to 18% in February from about 4% six months ago, Mr. Denier said. Trading in Tesla, which typically accounts for less than 10% of Webull&#39;s equity volume on a given day, reached roughly 35% of total volume on three days this year, he said.</p><p>Tesla is one of the most popular plays in the options market as well. Many of the biggest longstanding bets on Tesla are lottery-ticket trades requiring statistically improbable moves to pay out. One such wager is for the stock to reach $825 by January 2024.

Already in 2023, they have spent a net $13.6 billion on Tesla shares, approaching the record sum of nearly $17 billion for all of last year, according to Vanda Research.Their interest in Tesla dwarfs that in any other security, by far.\"The aggregate retail inflows into Tesla have never been higher,\" said Giacomo Pierantoni, head of data at Vanda, who added that buying among individual investors has likely contributed to the 55% jump in the stock price this year.Tesla investors have a reputation for being loyal. They raced to buy the dip last year when the stock was cratering, and continued piling in after it bottomed on Jan. 3. As Wednesday's much-anticipated investor day approached, buying set fresh records.The five-day moving average of individual investors' net one-day purchases hit roughly $460 million in the last week of February, according to Vanda. The average for the-next-most-popular security, the SPDR S&P 500 exchange-traded fund, was just under $150 million.Three securities followed: the Invesco QQQ ETF, a Nasdaq-100 tracker; Apple Inc.; and Amazon.com Inc., with interest at just a fraction of those levels.Individual investors poured more than $500 million into Tesla shares on Wednesday ahead of the investor day, which kicked off at 4 p.m. ET. The event largely failed to live up to its hype. Some investors had hoped a new, less-costly vehicle would be announced, to no avail. Plus, the company said it might need to spend nearly $150 billion in the coming years to achieve its long-term goal of becoming the world's largest car maker by volume.Although the stock tumbled 5.9% to $190.90 on Thursday, investors have used previous downturns as a chance to buy shares on discount. Tesla shares are still down more than 50% from their November 2021 record of $409.97.Durga Bobba, an investor who works in vaccine marketing at a pharmaceutical company, said he bought Tesla shares for the first time in December. Mr. Bobba, who splits his time between San Francisco and Philadelphia, had been interested in Tesla for a while and said he saw an attractive entry point late last year after researching its financials. \"I saw the stock go to a multiyear low and thought, 'If I'm ever going to do it, now's the time,' \" said Mr. Bobba.\"I'm a marketing guy, and the broad appeal was the No. 1 reason I bought Tesla,\" he added. \"People love it, regardless of age and gender.\"Mr. Bobba is one of many recent buyers sitting on substantial gains. \"I bought it for about $110 a share and I'm very happy,\" he said. \"I probably will never sell.\"Tesla shares currently trade at roughly 43 times the company's projected earnings over the next 12 months, far off their peak of more than 200 times earnings, according to FactSet. During the selloff late last year, Tesla's multiple approached 19.In comparison, the multiples for General Motors Co., Ford Motor Co. and the S&P 500 are 6.4, 8 and 17.5, respectively.The Federal Reserve's campaign to raise interest rates changed the calculus for Tesla and other growth stocks last year. The stock came under further pressure as 2022 drew to a close when Tesla slashed car prices and investors grew more concerned that Mr. Musk was distracted with his newly acquired Twitter Inc. The shares ended the year down 65%, their worst annual decline so far.They have rebounded in 2023 along with some of the market's other most speculative investments, such as bitcoin and Cathie Wood's ARK Innovation ETF.Recent trading in Tesla has stood out even compared with the pandemic-era frenzy of 2020 and 2021, said Anthony Denier, chief executive of online brokerage Webull Financial LLC.\"Tesla reigns supreme on our platform,\" Mr. Denier said. \"We've seen a huge spike in volume since December.\"The proportion of accounts at Webull trading Tesla climbed to 18% in February from about 4% six months ago, Mr. Denier said. Trading in Tesla, which typically accounts for less than 10% of Webull's equity volume on a given day, reached roughly 35% of total volume on three days this year, he said.Tesla is one of the most popular plays in the options market as well. Many of the biggest longstanding bets on Tesla are lottery-ticket trades requiring statistically improbable moves to pay out. One such wager is for the stock to reach $825 by January 2024. Nine of the 10 most popular contracts involve expectations that the stock will rise.Plenty of other investors are moving against Tesla. The electric-vehicle maker remains the most shorted stock in the U.S., according to Ihor Dusaniwsky, managing director of predictive analytics at S3 Partners. Short interest in the stock, however, has dropped to $15 billion as of Wednesday from a peak of more than $51 billion in January 2021.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":423,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":896441144,"gmtCreate":1628603081488,"gmtModify":1676529793690,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Rock NIO","listText":"Rock NIO","text":"Rock NIO","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/896441144","repostId":"2158479992","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2158479992","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1628601960,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2158479992?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-10 21:26","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What to Expect When Nio Reports Earnings","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2158479992","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"NIO reports on Wednesday night.

We'll find out on Wednesday afternoon.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":79,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3571959390768435","authorId":"3571959390768435","name":"stormlee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/80629ef9648273c0d6465aee66dbd98a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3571959390768435","authorIdStr":"3571959390768435"},"content":"Like & comment pls","text":"Like & comment pls","html":"Like & comment pls"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9952714357,"gmtCreate":1674969355780,"gmtModify":1676538968783,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9952714357","repostId":"1140083087","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1140083087","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1674955482,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1140083087?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-01-29 09:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Fed Set to Shrink Rate Hikes Again as Inflation Slows","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1140083087","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"US jobs report may point to possible soft landing for economyECB, BOE seen raising rates while Brazi","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>US jobs report may point to possible soft landing for economy</li><li>ECB, BOE seen raising rates while Brazil stays on hold</li></ul><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e5cd79c8e9e28144887d0ae592c5c50b\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"666\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Federal Reserve officials are set to shift down the pace of interest-rate hikes again in the coming week amid signs of slowing inflation, while Friday’s jobs report may show steady demand for workers that improves the chances of a soft landing for the the world’s largest economy.</p><p>Policy makers are poised to raise their benchmark federal funds rateby a quarter percentage pointon Wednesday, to a range of 4.5% to 4.75%, dialing back the size of the increase for a second-straight meeting.</p><p>The move would follow a slew of recent data suggesting the Fed’s aggressive campaign to slow inflation is working.</p><p>“I expect that we will raise rates a few more times this year, though, to my mind, the days of us raising them 75 basis points at a time have surely passed,” Philadelphia Fed President Patrick Harkersaid in a Jan. 20 speech. “Hikes of 25 basis points will be appropriate going forward.”</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c9347164d4cb8eac2800160289e2a05f\" tg-width=\"930\" tg-height=\"523\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Key questions for Fed Chair Jerome Powell at his post-meeting press conference will be how much higher the central bank intends to raise rates, and what officials need to see before pausing.</p><p>Fed officials have made clear they also want to see evidence that supply and demand imbalances in the labor market are starting to improve.</p><p>Hiring probably slowed in January, according to economists surveyed by Bloomberg, who projected employers added 185,000 jobs compared with 223,000 in December.

Amid this long-term bullishness for tech, this publication will also highlight the trading opportunities with both QID and SQQQ in view of tech&#39;s earnings results for the December 2022 quarter.</p><p>I start with the recent action by the U.S. central bank to provide investors with some perspective.</p><h2>The Fed&#39;s Move</h2><p>First, an increase limited to 25bp for the Fed Funds rates, which was almost certain before the FOMC (Federal Open Market Committee) meeting given the progress made in slowing the rise in prices was confirmed. This is its highest level since October 2007 and represents the eighth time the Fed has tightened since March 2022.</p><p>More importantly, and against the wishes of many who had been hoping for a pause early this year, rate hikes should continue, with no precise indication of the end of monetary tightening, as the committee wants to achieve a sufficiently tight monetary policy stance to bring inflation down to 2%. Moreover, the central bank acknowledges that inflation is starting to decelerate but remains high and that the process of disinflation has begun while specifying that it is premature to declare victory.</p><p>In these circumstances, while core price inflation is falling, wage growth is slowing, and there are signs that the economy is on the verge of a recession, the Fed could still raise by 25 basis points at the March FOMC meeting before pausing, but, even that is not entirely guaranteed given how fast the data is moving.</p><p>On the other hand, what is relevant for this thesis - and which also concurs with my previous one concerning the right ETF for a low growth environment - Powell expects &#34;positive growth,&#34; but at a subdued pace this year. This cautiously implies that a recession can be avoided and, noteworthily, economists at Goldman Sachs (GS) are also of the same opinion.</p><p>This is a positive for equities in general, but for tech in particular.</p><h2>Long-Term Tailwinds for Tech Implies Pains for Shorts</h2><p>The reason is mostly due to tech being less cyclical than other classical sectors of the economy like financials, real estate, and energy. It is already benefiting from the secular digital transformation trend, which got a boost from the Covid-led working-from-home and migration of IT workloads to the cloud.</p><p>I back this statement firstly through the better year-to-date performance of the S&amp;P 500 Information Technology sector, as shown in the deep blue chart below, compared to those from real estate, financials, and energy.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/99589bf47e633ed94fbb50e4c824eef1\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"467\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>Secondly, the Quant ratings for both of these two ETFs point to a &#34;Strong Sell.&#34;</p><p>Third, there is a survey by Gartner, the analyst firm, which has cut its growth projections for IT growth by more than two times for 2023, from 5.1% during its October forecast to 2.4% in January. Nevertheless, this still represents growth and is confirmed by Forrester’s forecast published in January 2023 on the U.S. Tech Market which sees IT spending growing at 5.4% or a fall of 7.4% growth from last year.</p><p>All these signify growth in tech, in turn implying longer-term pains for ETFs that short IT stocks, like QID and SQQQ.</p><h2>The Risks involved in Trading SQQQ and QID</h2><p>Worst, there are additional downside risks due to both of these ETFs being highly leveraged. In this respect, according to my own experience trading these types of ETFs for the last two years, it is advisable not to trade them over longer periods of time, with the risks also flagged by Seeking Alpha. These revolve around the possibility of suffering from value erosion of your portfolio by holding on to these highly leveraged ETFs, in the hope that just like for buy-and-hold investments, they will offer prospects for turnarounds.</p><p>Furthermore, due to their high fees of 0.95% and compounding-related losses, they face a phenomenon called ETF decay, meaning approaching zero dollars in value. Avoiding a buy-and-hold investment strategy for these ETFs is also recommended by the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as ProShares themselves which highlight losses due to the compounding effect as pictured below.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92966adde8bee7b2b9e7873f889a93b2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"556\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Important Considerations for SQQQ and QID (www.proshares.com)</span></p><p>On the other hand, as pictured above, Proshares states that one common use of inverse exposure is to seek profits from a market decline. In this respect, both SQQQ and QID could benefit from a temporary decline in the Nasdaq composite.</p><h2>Profiting from Tech&#39;s Brief decline to Trade QID and SQQQ</h2><p>First, QID, as a short ETF, seeks a return that is-2xthe return of the Nasdaq-100 Index. As such, with 49.8% of exposure to IT, this index is highly concentrated in big techs with names like Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG), Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), etc., as shown below.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/48fb3f70b18a7d1bf2c43f82e4541e5b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Nasdaq-100 holdings (www.proshares.com)</span></p><p>Second, SQQQ also provides inverse exposure to the Nasdaq-100&#39;s list of holdings (above), but at an accelerated pace of three times (-3x).</p><p>However, the earnings for the quarter ending in December 2022 have been disappointing for the likes of Apple, Amazon, and Google. The problem varies from supply chain issues for the iPhone company, lower demand for the world&#39;s largest online retailer while the search giant faces lower advertising spending by online advertisers, etc. However, investors have not dumped their stocks, as they seem to be paying more attention to the companies&#39; ability to improve profitability through job cuts in the longer term.</p><p>However, others may not have the same chance when they report earnings next week, especially chips stocks because of market cyclicality, with overall semiconductor sales for November having decreased by9.2%year-over-year in November. This could impact electronics manufacturing companies and, combined with inflation and consumer credit data coming next week, there could be a decline in the value of the Nasdaq composite, thereby undoing the one-month 17% upside seen by QQQ.</p><p>Conversely, both SQQQ and QID could see gains. In this respect, just a 10% appreciation could result in SQQQ reaching $36.3 (33 x 1.1) based on its current share price of $33. For QID, I have a $20.7 (18.8 x 1.1) target based on its share price of $18.8.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/26e121a275487aad9e59895745c02b91\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"447\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Comparison with Peers (www.seekingalpha.com)</span></p><p>Noteworthily, the comparison table above indicates that despite QID being incepted four years before SQQQ, its asset under management is still $426.8 million or less than six times its peer. The same can be noticed for the average traded daily share volume. All these show that the two-time short ETF is much less popular than SQQQ as a trading tool.</p><p>This means that traders have a preference for SQQQ, as it delivers more gains than QID each time the Nasdaq suffers. However, again clinging to my cautionary stance, this higher performance is due to its use of a higher degree of leverage, which means higher volatility as well. This volatility in turn means that the returns one expects will be significantly different from those actually obtained, especially when holding for periods of greater than one day, and one should monitor their trade at least on a daily basis.</p><p>Conclusion</p><p>Therefore, this thesis has made the case for trading opportunities provided by both of these bearish ProShares ETFs, but, at the same time, the risks involved when trading these leveraged ETFs over long periods, or more than one day, have been thoroughly amplified.</p><p>To further justify my cautionary instance and focusing on the top holding or Microsoft, the software giant can rely on its huge cloud platform called Azure as a disinflationary tool, or one which companies can migrate their IT workloads, and subsequently benefit from the Opex charging model, instead of investing heavily in capital-intensive hardware infrastructure to support their core businesses. Thus, according to research by Forrester, software-related expenses which include SaaS, or Software as a Service, will be a major contributor (34%) to tech spend 2023 as corporations actively look for cost savings in a business environment where inflation and high borrowing costs have raised the cost of doing business.</p><p>Furthermore, big tech has already demonstrated an ability to use AI artificial intelligence to bring innovations along their value chain, in such a way that increases productivity. Now software and AI can both drive demand for hardware and semiconductors for data centers as hyperscalers themselves invest in infrastructure to provide SaaS to companies wanting to adopt a cloud-driven Opex cost model. Against such a backdrop, it is not advisable to bet against tech for the long term and, instead, it is better to place a trade shorting the Nasdaq after its 17% rise in the last month.</p><p>Finally, the non-farm payrolls increased by 517K on Friday, which was well above the consensus. Thus, despite big tech cutting jobs, the service sector remains strong, which can drive up core inflation and result in the Federal Reserve continuing its hawkish stance. Now, higher interest rates are not good for equities, but bode well for shorting tools like QID and SQQQ.</p><p><i>This article is written by Chetan Woodun for reference only.

Well, this is the message that investors seemed to be weighing more than thewords of caution of the U.S. Federal Reserve's Chairman about the possibility of interest rates continuing to be raised.Even, before that, investors have been bullish on tech stocks, as seen by the one-month performance of the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:QQQ) which has appreciated by nearly 17% (deep blue chart below). Conversely, the ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ ETF (NASDAQ:SQQQ) and the ProShares UltraShort QQQ ETF (NYSEARCA:QID) have suffered by 39% and 27.5%, respectively.Data by YChartsTherefore, all those who have been shorting tech through these two exchange-traded funds (\"ETFs\") have been crushed, and as this thesis will show, this is likelyto be the case in 2023 despite monetary conditions being tightened at such a frantic pace only seen in the 1980s.

Last year served as this unpleasant reminder, with all three major U.S. stock indexes falling into a bear market.</p><p>But among the major stock indexes, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) stood head and shoulders above the pack.

Since recessions are an inevitable part of the economic cycle, Visa is bound to encounter a spending slowdown from consumers and businesses. But even if a recession were to materialize this year, investors should understand that economic downturns tend to be short lived.</p><p>What makes Visa such a great company is its ability to grow in lockstep with the U.S. and global economy over time.

As of 2021, Visa accounted for 52.6% of network purchase volume in the U.S. and was the only one of the four major payment networks to significantly increase its share following the Great Recession.</p><p>But don&#39;t think for a moment the U.S. is Visa&#39;s only organic growth opportunity. There&#39;s a multidecade runway for Visa to organically expand into underbanked emerging markets with its payment infrastructure. Last year alone, Visa&#39;s cross-border payment volume, excluding transactions within Europe, soared 49%. This serves as confirmation that emerging markets can help Visa sustain a double-digit growth rate for a long time to come.</p><p>Another key investment thesis with Visa that I&#39;ve driven home repeatedly is the fiscal prudence of management. Although Visa could easily enter the lending arena, the company has chosen to strictly remain a payment processor. The advantage of avoiding this temptation is that it has no loan-loss liability during economic downturns. Not having to set aside billions of dollars in provisions to cover loan losses is a powerful advantage that helps Visa bounce back from recessions faster than most financial stocks.</p><p>With Visa valued at 24 times Wall Street&#39;s consensus earnings for 2024, and the company capable of sustained double-digit sales growth, it looks like an incredible company at a very fair price.</p><h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VZ\">Verizon Communications</a></h3><p>A second Dow stock that&#39;s nothing short of a screaming buy in February is telecom giant Verizon Communications. As of last weekend, Verizon was the highest-yielding Dow component (6.4% yield).</p><p>For more than a decade, telecom stocks have been nothing more than an afterthought. Historically low lending rates made growth stocks far more attractive. But with interest rates climbing at their fastest pace in four decades and investors navigating their first extended bear market since 2009, value plays like Verizon are coming back into focus.</p><p>One factor clearly working in Verizon&#39;s favor is the evolution of wireless service as a basic necessity. No matter how poorly the U.S. economy or stock market performs, wireless retail churn rates don&#39;t meaningfully rise. This leads to highly predictable cash flow for Verizon, which allows the company to confidently outlay capital for infrastructure projects and its dividend without any fear of adversely impacting its profitability.</p><p>The 5G revolution is, arguably, the top catalyst for Verizon through at the least the midpoint of this decade. After approximately 10 years without any major wireless download speed improvements, 5G offers consumers and businesses a tangible lure to trade in their devices. Even though upgrading its wireless infrastructure will be costly and time consuming, the benefit for Verizon of users increasing their data consumption far outweighs the cost. The company&#39;s wireless service revenue rose nearly 6% last year, with retail postpaid net additions hitting a seven-year high.</p><p>But the unsung hero for Verizon might just be the resurgence it&#39;s seen in broadband additions. After spending a small fortune to purchase mid-band spectrum for its 5G home and enterprise broadband services, Verizon registered 416,000 net broadband adds in the fourth quarter. That was its best quarter for broadband net additions in over a decade. The bundling potential broadband offers should boost Verizon&#39;s operating cash flow and improve its operating margins.</p><p>Currently valued at a little over 8 times Wall Street&#39;s forecast earnings for 2023, Verizon and its 6%-plus yield offer an excellent risk-versus-reward for investors.</p><h3><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JNJ\">Johnson &amp; Johnson</a></h3><p>The third Dow Jones stock that makes for a screaming buy in February is none other than healthcare conglomerate Johnson &amp; Johnson (JNJ 0.38%). J&amp;J, as Johnson &amp; Johnson is more commonly known, parses out a hearty 2.7% yield and has raised its annual payout for an impressive 60 straight years.</p><p>Generally speaking, healthcare stocks make for smart buys during a bear market due to their defensive nature. Since we can&#39;t decide when we get sick or what ailment(s) we develop, there tends to be steady demand for prescription drugs, medical devices, and healthcare products and services, in any economic environment. It&#39;s this demand predictability that&#39;s kept Johnson &amp; Johnson&#39;s profit needle pointing higher for decades.</p><p>In terms of operating segments, pharmaceuticals are J&amp;J&#39;s not-so-subtle secret to success. For more than a decade, Johnson &amp; Johnson has shifted its focus to high-margin, fast-growing, brand-name therapeutics.</p><p>If there&#39;s a potential downside to having more than half of its sales come from pharmaceuticals, it&#39;s that sales exclusivity for brand-name drugs is finite. But J&amp;J has all the right answers to this possible headwind. It&#39;s devoting plenty of capital for internal research, has outlaid cash for numerous drug-development collaborations, and is even willing to make acquisitions. It also has an industry-leading medical technologies segment that&#39;s well positioned to take advantage of an aging global population.</p><p>One of Johnson &amp; Johnson&#39;s bigger catalysts in 2023 is the upcoming spinoff of its health products segment, which will be known as Kenvue. Once this spinoff is complete, J&amp;J will sport a faster organic growth rate driven by pharmaceuticals and its MedTech segment, and will likely be deserving of an earnings multiple of more than 16 (based on Wall Street&#39;s 2023 consensus), which is where it ended this past week.</p><p>Lastly, Johnson &amp; Johnson is a company that even the most conservative investors can buy and hold with confidence. Out of the thousands of publicly traded companies, it&#39;s one of only two with the highest possible credit rating (AAA) from Standard &amp; Poor&#39;s, a division of S&amp;P Global. It&#39;s also had just 10 CEOs in its 137-year history. Therefore, there may not be a safer and steadier Dow component than Johnson &amp; Johnson.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Dow Stocks That Make for Screaming Buys in February</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Dow Stocks That Make for Screaming Buys in February\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-02-04 00:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/02/03/3-dow-stocks-make-for-screaming-buys-in-february/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>KEY POINTSThe 9% decline in the Dow Jones last year made it the top-performing major U.S. stock index.The Dow is made up of 30 generally profitable, time-tested businesses that can make for smart ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/02/03/3-dow-stocks-make-for-screaming-buys-in-february/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"JNJ":"强生","V":"Visa","VZ":"威瑞森"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/02/03/3-dow-stocks-make-for-screaming-buys-in-february/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1158764094","content_text":"KEY POINTSThe 9% decline in the Dow Jones last year made it the top-performing major U.S. stock index.The Dow is made up of 30 generally profitable, time-tested businesses that can make for smart investments during a bear market.These three Dow stocks offer bountiful catalysts and are reasonably cheap.Out of the Dow Jones Industrial Average's 30 components, there are three amazing deals hiding in plain sight.It may not be a fun realization, but corrections, crashes, and bear markets are a normal part of the investing cycle. Last year served as this unpleasant reminder, with all three major U.S. stock indexes falling into a bear market.But among the major stock indexes, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) stood head and shoulders above the pack. Its 9% loss was considerably \"better\" than the 19% and 33% respective declines delivered by the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite in 2022.Since the Dow Jones is a 30-component index packed with mature, profitable businesses, it's well equipped to deal with stock market downturns. It's also a great place to look for investing ideas during a bear market.As we motor ahead into February, the following three Dow stocks stand out as screaming buys.VisaThe first Dow Jones Industrial Average stock begging to be bought in February is payment-processing kingpin Visa.The biggest knock against Visa is that it's cyclical. Since recessions are an inevitable part of the economic cycle, Visa is bound to encounter a spending slowdown from consumers and businesses. But even if a recession were to materialize this year, investors should understand that economic downturns tend to be short lived.What makes Visa such a great company is its ability to grow in lockstep with the U.S. and global economy over time. In short, patience tends to pay off handsomely for Visa's shareholders.Something else that doesn't hurt is holding a majority of credit card network purchase volume in the No. 1 market for consumption in the world. As of 2021, Visa accounted for 52.6% of network purchase volume in the U.S. and was the only one of the four major payment networks to significantly increase its share following the Great Recession.But don't think for a moment the U.S. is Visa's only organic growth opportunity. There's a multidecade runway for Visa to organically expand into underbanked emerging markets with its payment infrastructure. Last year alone, Visa's cross-border payment volume, excluding transactions within Europe, soared 49%. This serves as confirmation that emerging markets can help Visa sustain a double-digit growth rate for a long time to come.Another key investment thesis with Visa that I've driven home repeatedly is the fiscal prudence of management. Although Visa could easily enter the lending arena, the company has chosen to strictly remain a payment processor. The advantage of avoiding this temptation is that it has no loan-loss liability during economic downturns. Not having to set aside billions of dollars in provisions to cover loan losses is a powerful advantage that helps Visa bounce back from recessions faster than most financial stocks.With Visa valued at 24 times Wall Street's consensus earnings for 2024, and the company capable of sustained double-digit sales growth, it looks like an incredible company at a very fair price.Verizon CommunicationsA second Dow stock that's nothing short of a screaming buy in February is telecom giant Verizon Communications.

The move showed that the central bank is deadly serious about taking on the stubbornly high inflation that has been plaguing the economy since the middle of 2021.The Fed’s turn toward an aggressive anti-inflationary policy may not be hard enough, however, as the September data, released this morning, showed the headline consumer price index (CPI) at an annualized rate of 8.2%, slightly lower than August’s 8.3%, but slightly higher than the 8.1% which had been forecast. There’s no good news here, and we should expect the Fed to take further aggressive rate hiking action at the next FOMC meeting on November 1 and 2.After the data release, the 2-year Treasury bond yield jumped by 16 basis points and hit 4.45%, and the 10-year note once again moved above 4%. These moves portend a shift by investors from stocks toward bonds, to lock in higher yields.For investors still intent on sticking with stocks, the logical move is find a defensive play that will provide some protection against inflation. Dividend stocks, especially the high-yield payers, are the ‘standard’ move in the defensive playbook, and we’ve used the TipRanks data to look up two that offer yields high enough to give some insulation against inflation. And even better, they both have a ‘Strong Buy’ consensus rating from the wider analyst community. Let’s take a closer look.Alpine Income Property Trust (PINE)The first high-yield div payer we’ll look at is Alpine Income Property Trust, a commercial net lease REIT with a focus on retail properties. Alpine’s portfolio is composed of open-air strip malls and stand-alone retail locations, spread across 35 states. The company is headquartered in Florida, where it has 4 properties; the state with the largest number of Alpine properties is Texas, with 25, while Ohio and New York tie for second place, each with 12 properties.Alpine has a total of 143 properties in its portfolio, a combined 3.3 million square feet of leasable space. The company boasts, justifiably, that it has a 100% occupancy rate. Revenues and earnings have been strong over the past two years, with consistent sequential gains at the top line.Alpine saw revenues of $11.3 million in 2Q22, the last quarter reported. Earnings spiked in that quarter, to $14.3 million, after coming in at just $304K one year earlier. Alpine had a diluted EPS of $1.05 in 2Q22. Of particular interest to dividend investors, Alpine reported an adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) of $0.47 for 2Q, a 20% increase year-over-year, and more than enough to fully cover the regular stock dividend.That dividend deserved a closer look. The most recent declaration, made in August, was for 27.5 cents per common share, a modest bump of 1.9% from the previous quarter – but the sixth dividend increase in the past three years. Alpine’s current common share dividend annualizes to $1.10 and gives a yield of 7%, more than triple the average dividend yield in the broader markets, and high enough to be useful as insulation against current inflation.In the eyes of Raymond James analyst RJ Milligan, who holds a 5-star ranking from TipRanks, all of this adds up to a company in a very solid position.“Investors continue to build positions in more defensive sectors (including net-lease) given concerns about a coming recession, which has helped drive the net lease sector’s YTD outperformance despite spiking rates and high inflation. We expect PINE will continue to benefit from this rotation given its high quality portfolio, discounted valuation, and well-covered dividend,” Milligan opined.Following from this upbeat stance, Milligan rates PINE shares an Outperform (i.e. Buy), and his price target of $23 implies a one-year upside potential of 44%.While this commercial REIT has only picked up 5 recent analyst reviews, those were all positive, testifying to PINE’s underlying strength and attractive qualities – and giving the stock a unanimous Strong Buy consensus rating. The shares are selling for $15.87 and their average price target of $21.25 indicates a potential gain of 33% in the next 12 months.CTO Realty Growth (CTO)Let’s stick with REITs, a sector known for its dividend champs. CTO Realty Growth is another commercial REIT with income-generating shopping mall and retail investments in 9 states. CTO has 6 properties in its home state of Florida, and 3 each in Georgia and Texas. The bulk of CTO’s assets are in the coastal Southeast or the Southwest, but the company does have a 15% ownership interest in Alpine, the stock discussed above.In recent weeks, CTO has announced two important developments that have enhanced the company’s liquidity. First was the September 21 notice that the firm had expanded its credit facility to $565 million, and that was followed on September 26 by the announcement that the company had sold off three properties in Jacksonville, Florida for a total of $34.9 million.Earlier in the summer, CTO reported its results for 2Q22, with fund from operations (FFO) coming in at $1.41 per share for the quarter, up 60% year-over-year, and adjusted FFO growing 38% to reach $1.48 per common share. These results were more than enough to support the dividend, which was declared for Q3 on August 22 and paid out on September 30. The Q3 dividend was raised by a modest 1.8% and paid out at 38 cents per common share. The dividend’s annualized rate of $1.52 gives a yield of 8.6%, which is higher than current inflation numbers and ensures a real rate of return for investors.AnalystRobert Stevenson, watching this stock for investment firm Janney Montgomery, is unabashedly bullish on CTO. He says of the company, “Our continued positive view on the stock is based on the company’s assets, high dividend yield, and ability to continue to grow earnings and dividends for shareholders… CTO is one of our favorite yield names within our REIT coverage universe.”Factoring in a discounted valuation and attractive growth potential, Stevenson rates CTO a Buy, along with a price target of $25. If his price target is achieved, investors could realize a potential total return of ~44%There are 4 recent analyst reviews on file for CTO and they are unanimously positive, to give the stock its Strong Buy analyst consensus rating. The shares are priced at $17.54 and their $25 average target matches Stevenson’s 42% upside forecast.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":387,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":860965814,"gmtCreate":1632123825138,"gmtModify":1676530705430,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Gg","listText":"Gg","text":"Gg","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/860965814","repostId":"1109188181","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1109188181","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1632123243,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1109188181?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-20 15:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Savvy stock traders use these 2 insider tips to know when to buy and sell","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1109188181","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"MACD and the MACD-Histogram can give your trading portfolio a boost.\n\nFor many stock traders, four l","content":"<blockquote>\n <b>MACD and the MACD-Histogram can give your trading portfolio a boost.</b>\n</blockquote>\n<p>For many stock traders, four letters can spell the difference between a winning and losing position. MACD (moving average convergence divergence) ranks among the key stock market indicators (along with moving averages and RSI) that traders use consistently in their analysis.</p>\n<p>Let’s discuss a number of creative ways to use this powerful and versatile gauge.</p>\n<p>MACD, introduced in the late 1970s, is a trend-following momentum indicator.&nbsp; It helps to determine when a trend, and its associated momentum (i.e., directional speed and duration) has ended or begun, or might reverse direction.</p>\n<p>Be aware that MACD is a “lagging” or “backward-looking” indicator, which means its signals are delayed, but don’t let that deter you. When MACD yields a signal, it is often significant, especially if used on a weekly chart (versus the daily chart favored by short-term traders). In fact, the longer the MACD time frame, the more valid the results, which is one reason longer-term traders like myself prefer to use a weekly chart.</p>\n<p>When you view MACD on a chart, you see two lines. The black line is referred to as the “MACD line.” The gray (or red) line is referred to as the “signal line.” Remember: the MACD line is the leader line, while the signal line is the laggard line.</p>\n<p>In addition, a horizontal line runs across the chart called the “zero line” (0 line).&nbsp; The main function of the zero line is to alert you to the primary trend of the underlying price action.</p>\n<p><b>Four simple trading signals</b></p>\n<p>At its most basic level, MACD generates four signals:</p>\n<p><b>Buy:</b>When the MACD line crosses above the zero line, it’s bullish.</p>\n<p><b>Buy:</b>When the MACD line crosses above the nine-day signal line, it’s bullish.</p>\n<p><b>Sell:</b>When the MACD line crosses below the zero line, it’s bearish.</p>\n<p><b>Sell:</b>When the MACD line crosses below the nine-day signal line, it’s bearish.</p>\n<p>Note: When both the MACD line and nine-day signal line move in the same direction (uptrend or downtrend), that is a stronger, more significant signal.</p>\n<p>Keep in mind that just because MACD generates a buy or sell signal does not mean it is an actionable trade. Like that of any indicator, there are false signals. In addition, it’s essential that you confirm with other indicators before betting real money on a trade. Think of these MACD buy and sell signals as guidelines, not rules.</p>\n<p>Another limitation of MACD is that it does not work as well at stock market tops or when market volatility is low. Therefore, if you use MACD on the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA,-0.48%or the S&amp;P 500SPX,-0.91%in this current market, the signal is not as useful. That is why you should use MACD on individual stocks until volatility returns to the major market indexes.</p>\n<p>What MACD says about Tesla now</p>\n<p>For example, the weekly stock chart of TeslaTSLA,+0.33%shows its MACD is above the zero line, and the MACD line is above the signal line. Tesla is also above its moving averages.</p>\n<p>Based on this information, Tesla stock currently is a short-term “strong” buy.&nbsp;If Tesla’s MACD line drops below its signal line while both lines are above the zero line, the shares would be a “moderate” buy.</p>\n<p>A few years ago, I spoke with MACD’s creator, Gerald Appel. He told me that he created MACD in the late 1970s by entering numbers into a punch machine and a spreadsheet. After the personal computer was invented, he was able to automate the process.</p>\n<p>Appel expressed surprise that MACD became so popular. “It works because it’s adaptable to any time frame,” he said. “You can get a good reading of the major trend of the market by using MACD patterns that are based on monthly data. You can also use it on a five-minute chart.”</p>\n<p>MACD gives the most precise signals at market bottoms. Said Appel: “It’s more accurate at market low points than high points because of the way the market behaves. Market bottoms tend to be very sharp and pronounced, while tops tend to be broad and slow. It’s also possible for the market averages to keep drifting upwards while more and more stocks are falling.”</p>\n<p>Appel cautioned that you must confirm MACD signals against other indicators. “No indicator is infallible,” he said. “You might get a market rise and MACD turns down. Perhaps you think this is a sell signal. Well, it might not be.”</p>\n<p>Appel added that he likes to work with different MACD time frames simultaneously. For example, if the short-term MACD turns up along with the intermediate MACD, he’s more confident that the signal is valid.</p>\n<p><b>The MACD-Histogram</b></p>\n<p>One of the most powerful (but often ignored) additions to the MACD is the MACD-Histogram. Developed by Thomas Aspray in 1986, this oscillator is used to gauge momentum. It is a separate program that should be available on your charting package.&nbsp;Traders who use this feature typically view both MACD and the histogram on a stock chart simultaneously.</p>\n<p>The histogram is a series of bar graphs at the bottom of the stock screen. If the bars move above the zero line, it means the underlying stock (or index) is gaining strength, i.e., momentum. If the bars move below the zero line, the stock or index is losing strength.</p>\n<p>Many beginning traders don’t realize that momentum always changes before price does. That is what makes MACD and the MACD-Histogram so valuable. Both indicators detect when momentum is weakening. It could also be a signal to become bullish if the histogram bars move above the zero line.</p>\n<p><b>Histogram signals</b></p>\n<ol>\n <li>If the MACD-Histogram bar changes to a lighter color, it means that momentum is diminishing. It is not a sell signal; it simply means that enthusiasm for that particular stock is waning.</li>\n</ol>\n<ol>\n <li>As mentioned earlier, if the histogram bar rises above the zero line, that is a buy signal. An uptrend may be developing. If the histogram bar drops below the zero line, that is a sell signal. A downtrend may be developing.</li>\n</ol>\n<p><b>Red flags</b></p>\n<p>If you see the index prices as well as stock prices move higher, but MACD turns lower, that is a red flag. In addition, if you see the MACD-Histogram changing colors and the bars getting shorter, that confirms momentum is weakening (but confirm this against RSI or stochastics).</p>\n<p>If you have never used MACD or MACD-Histogram, give it a try. Use these measures for any stock that has hit bottom and is on its way higher. They’ll help confirm whether the stock has legs or is a just giving traders a head fake.</p>\n<p><i>Michael Sincere&nbsp;(michaelsincere.com) is the author of “Understanding Options” and “Understanding Stocks.”</i></p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","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>Savvy stock traders use these 2 insider tips to know when to buy and sell</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\">\nSavvy stock traders use these 2 insider tips to know when to buy and sell\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-20 15:34 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/savvy-stock-traders-use-these-2-insider-tips-to-know-when-to-buy-and-sell-11631314697><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>MACD and the MACD-Histogram can give your trading portfolio a boost.\n\nFor many stock traders, four letters can spell the difference between a winning and losing position.

All three major U.S. stock indexes ended in negative territory in a reminder that September is a historically rough month for stocks.\nSo far this month the S&P 500 is down nearly 1.8% even as the benchmark index has gained over 18% since the beginning of the year.\n“There is a possibility that the market is simply ready to go through an overdue correction,” said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research in New York. “From a seasonality perspective, September tends to be the window dressing period for fund managers.”\nThe advent of the highly contagious Delta COVID variant has driven an increase in bearish sentiment regarding the recovery from the global health crisis, and many now expect a substantial correction in stock markets by the end of the year.\n“We’re still in a corrective mode that people have been calling for months,” said Paul Nolte, portfolio manager at Kingsview Asset Management in Chicago. “Economic data points have been missing estimates, and that has coincided with the rise in the Delta variant.”\nThe CPI report delivered a lower-than-consensus August reading, a deceleration that supports Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s assertion that spiking inflation is transitory and calms market fears that the central bank will begin tightening monetary policy sooner than expected.\nU.S. Treasury yields dropped on the data, which pressured financial stocks, and investor favor pivoted back to growth at the expense of value. [US/]\nThe long expected corporate tax hikes, to 26.5% from 21% if Democrats prevail, are coming nearer to fruition with U.S. President Joe Biden’s $3.5 trillion budget package inching closer to passage.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 292.06 points, or 0.84%, to 34,577.57; the S&P 500 lost 25.68 points, or 0.57%, at 4,443.05; and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 67.82 points, or 0.45%, to 15,037.76.\nAll 11 major sectors in the S&P 500 ended the session red, with energy and financials suffering the largest percentage drops.\nApple Inc unveiled its iPhone 13 and added new features to its iPad and Apple Watch gadgets in its biggest product launch event of the year as the company faces increased scrutiny in the courts over its business practices. Its shares closed down 1.0% and were the heaviest drag on the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq.\nIntuit Inc gained 1.9% following the TurboTax maker’s announcement that it would acquire digital marketing company Mailchimp for $12 billion.\nCureVac slid 8.0% after the German biotechnology company canceled manufacturing deals for its experimental COVID-19 vaccine.\nDeclining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 2.25-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 2.40-to-1 ratio favored decliners.\nThe S&P 500 posted two new 52-week highs and two new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 50 new highs and 107 new lows.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 10.07 billion shares, compared with the 9.38 billion average over the last 20 trading days.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":16,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":893926891,"gmtCreate":1628231199413,"gmtModify":1703503616238,"author":{"id":"3574813964437135","authorId":"3574813964437135","name":"June_C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae77017e1795eeceab087663e5586137","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574813964437135","authorIdStr":"3574813964437135"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cheap cheap&nbsp;","listText":"Cheap cheap&nbsp;","text":"Cheap cheap","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/893926891","repostId":"1186497731","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1186497731","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1628230697,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1186497731?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-06 14:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Xilinx Could Be a Cheap Way to Play AMD, Thanks to the Merger Arbitrage Spread","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1186497731","media":"Barrons","summary":"Xilinx is trading at a significant discount to the value of the takeover offer from Advanced Micro D","content":"<p>Xilinx&nbsp;is trading at a significant discount to the value of&nbsp;the takeover offer&nbsp;from&nbsp;Advanced Micro Devices&nbsp;after a Reddit-aided run-up in AMD shares.</p>\n<p>Given the wide spread,Xilinx&nbsp;could offer a cheap way to play AMD, although the deal awaits regulatory approval in China, and that isn’t certain in a climate of worsening relations with the U.S.</p>\n<p>While the arbitrage spread tightened on Thursday, it remains wide, with Xilinx (ticker: XLNX) trading at a 23% discount to the current value of the AMD (AMD) offer.
