But in my opinion,it is better to invest in a company facing growth problems than aging problems.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1860,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":102880885,"gmtCreate":1620193088747,"gmtModify":1704340027062,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh...","listText":"Oh...","text":"Oh...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/102880885","repostId":"1106669817","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1106669817","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1620186328,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1106669817?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-05 11:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Amazon and Alphabet may need to split their high-priced stocks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1106669817","media":"CNN","summary":"New York Amazon and Google owner Alphabet are two of the most valuable companies on the planet.

The proposal calls for increasing the top marginal income tax rate to 39.6% from 37%, the sources said this week. It would also nearly double taxes on capital gains to 39.6% for people earning more than $1 million.That would be the highest tax rate on investment gains, which are mostly paid by the wealthiest Americans, since the 1920s. The rate has not exceeded 33.8% in the post-World War Two era.News of the proposal- which was a staple of Biden’s presidential campaign platform - triggered sharp declines on Wall Street, with the benchmark S&P 500 index(.SPX)down 1% in early afternoon, its steepest drop in more than a month.Any such hike would need to go through Congress, where Biden's Democratic Party holds narrow majorities and is unlikely to win support from Republicans. It is also unclear if it would have the unanimous backing of congressional Democrats, which would be essential in the Senate where each party holds 50 seats.\"If it had a chance of passing, we'd be down 2,000 points,\" said Thomas Hayes, chairman and managing member at hedge fund Great Hill Capital LLC, referring to stock market indexes.Sources said details would be released next week before Biden's address to Congress on Wednesday. Details of the plan may change in coming days. White House officials are debating other possible tax increases that could ultimately be included such as capping deductions for wealthy taxpayers or increasing the estate tax, sources told Reuters.Biden has promised not to raise taxes on households earning less than $400,000.Tax details related to the plan, which has been in the works for months, were first reported by the New York Times on Thursday morning.White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the president would discuss his \"American Families Plan\" during his speech to Congress but declined to comment on any details.She said the administration had not yet finalized funding plans but stressed Biden's determination to make the wealthy and companies pay for new programs.\"His view is that that should be on the backs ... of the wealthiest Americans who can afford it and corporations and businesses who can afford it,\" Psaki said.U.S. President Joe Biden speaks in the Cross Hall at the White House in Washington, U.S., April 20, 2021. REUTERS/Tom BrennerShe said Biden and his economic team did not believe the measures would have a negative impact on investment in the United States.Yields on Treasuries, which move in the opposite direction to their price, fell to the day's low.CAPITAL GAINSBiden's new plan, likely to generate about $1 trillion, comes after a $2.3 trillion jobs and infrastructure proposal that has already run into stiff opposition from Republicans. They generally support funding infrastructure projects but oppose Biden's inclusion of priorities like expanding eldercare and asking corporate America to pay the tab.Tax hikes on the wealthy could harden Republicans' resistance against Biden's latest \"human\" infrastructure plan, forcing Democrats to consider pushing it - or least some of the measures - through Congress using a party-line budget vote known as reconciliation.Senator Joe Manchin, a moderate Democrat from West Virginia who wields outsize power due to the party's slim majority, said recently said he was wary of expanding the use of reconciliation.Biden's proposal should be viewed as an aggressive negotiating tactic, said Steve Chiavarone, a portfolio manager and equity strategist at Federated Hermes.\"You should expect that you will get at least initially the biggest, baddest, most progressive policy proposals with the understanding that they won't get everything they want but define the scope of the negotiation. Maybe Biden doesn’t get 39%, he will get 29%\" tax rate, he said.Wealthy Americans could face an overall federal capital gains tax rate of 43.4% including the 3.8% net investment tax on individuals with income of $200,000 or more ($250,000 married filing jointly). The latter helps fund the Affordable Care Act, popularly known as Obamacare.Currently, those earning more than $200,000 pay a capital gains rate of about 23.8% including the Obamacare net investment tax instituted as part of that law. For tax year 2021, the top marginal tax rate remains 37% for individual single taxpayers with incomes greater than $523,600 and $628,300 for married couples filing jointly.Erica York, an economist at the Tax Foundation, said the proposal would put U.S. capital gains taxes at the top of the global charts. Average capital gains taxes in Europe are around 19.3%, and the highest rate there is in Denmark, which collects 42%. France and Finland charge 34%.For residents of some states and cities that assess their own capital gains levy, Biden’s plan would push the total capital gains rate to more than 50%, York said. The rate would rise to 56.7% in California, 68.2% in New York City and 57.3% in Portland, Oregon, York said.Goldman Says \"No Surprise\" In Biden Cap Gains Proposal, Sees Congress Settling On 28% Tax RateToday the market freaked out when Bloomberg reported that the Biden Administration will propose to tax capital gains at the top ordinary income tax rate (39.6%, or 43.4% when the existing 3.8% tax on net investment income tax is added).Well, according to Goldman, this is nothing more than the latest pipe dream trial balloon from progressives, one which won't actually take place and instead has been floated to set the negotiation \"ask\", with Goldman expecting that\"Congress will settle on a more modest increase, potentially around 28%.\"As such there are no actual \"surprises\" in the proposal which has been floated in this exact format previously, and while it remains unclear when the tax rate increase would be effective, the bank's economists \"think it is unlikely to apply to gains realized before May, and an increase effective Jan. 1, 2022 is more likely.\"1.Bloomberg hasreportedthat the Biden Administration will propose to raise the federal capital gains tax rate to 39.6%, also the top marginal income tax rate under President Biden’s proposal. In addition to 3.8% tax on net investment income that Congress established in 2009, the combined rate would be 43.4%.We had expected the President to propose this as part of his “American Families Plan” and the proposal comes as no surprise.This proposal would apply to taxpayers with annual incomes over $1 million, and would likely also apply to qualified dividends, which are currently taxed at the same rate as capital gains. We note that the Biden campaign also proposed eliminating the step-up in basis on inherited assets, which would result in much larger taxable gains on those assets once sold.2. We expect Congress will pass a scaled back version of this tax increase.While it is possible that Congress might pass the proposal in its entirety,we think a moderated version is more likely in light of the razor-thin majorities in the House and Senate. At 43.4%, long-term capital gains would be taxed at the highest rate in the more than 100 years since Congress established the income tax. A 28% rate looks most likely, in our view, as it is roughly halfway between the current rate and Biden’s likely proposal.This is also the rate that President Reagan and a Democratic House settled on a few decades ago when raising the tax from 20%.3. The issue will likely remain in flux over the next several months. We expect President Biden to discuss the issue among many other topics when he addresses a joint session of Congress on April 28. By early May, the Biden Administration might also release its full fiscal year 2022 budget submission to Congress, which would provide more details on tax proposals including capital gains. However, the timing of this release remains unclear. In the interim,comments from centrist Senate Democrats, such as Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.),could clarify where key swing voters might come out on the issue.4. It is unclear when the higher rate would be effective, but we see three main options.First, Congress has occasionally made tax policies effective as of the date when the bill is introduced in the House of Representatives. This would likely be no earlier than May.A second option would be to make the higher tax rate effective for gains realized after the bill is enacted into law, which we think will be sometime between July and September.The third option would be an increase effective on January 1, 2022. We note that the last time Congress legislated an increase in the rate, the policy became law in October 1986 but the increase did not take effect until January 1987.While a retroactive increase cannot be ruled out entirely, we believe it is very unlikely that it would apply to gains realized before May 2021 (at earliest).","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".IXIC":0.9,".SPX":0.9,".DJI":0.9,"SPY":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1502,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371071621,"gmtCreate":1618896881363,"gmtModify":1704716527547,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/371071621","repostId":"1175524598","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1655,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":347314725,"gmtCreate":1618464903167,"gmtModify":1704711246008,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh no","listText":"Oh no","text":"Oh no","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/347314725","repostId":"1189551384","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2702,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344184760,"gmtCreate":1618388274250,"gmtModify":1704710020447,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Leggo","listText":"Leggo","text":"Leggo","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/344184760","repostId":"1120508319","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1120508319","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1618387670,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1120508319?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-14 16:07","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Stock Could Rise From Strength In This Key Segment","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1120508319","media":"TheStreet","summary":"Industry-wide growth of over 30% in first quarter shipments, pricing power and market share gain.

The combined company will push into the U.K., Sweden, Poland, Luxembourg, and China, with deal discussions ongoing in India, Aphria said.</p>\n<p>The expansion in Europe will come in a few weeks at the earliest, when Tilray will begin distributing in Luxembourg, with Aphria and Tilray businesses pushing into Poland by the third quarter of this year.</p>\n<p>In China, the group will have a distribution agreement for wellness products with CBD -- a non-psychoactive chemical in cannabis that is used to treat pain and anxiety, among other conditions. A similar agreement is under development in India.</p>\n<p>Aphria is a key player in global cannabis with a market capitalization of $5.1 billion. The group is favored among analysts for being the first Canadian cannabis company to report a net profit. In December, Aphria agreed to combine with smaller rival Tilray, which has a market cap of $3.5 billion, through a reverse takeover.</p>\n<p>In return for sharing its comparatively strong balance sheet with Tilray, Aphria would inherit the company's presence across 10 European countries, including the U.K., Germany, France, Spain, and Portugal, where it has a cultivation facility.

For all the talk of expansion into Europe, Simon recognizes that America is critical to the future of the stock.</p>\n<p>His game plan to pounce on the U.S. market largely rests on building upon successes in Canada and Europe. Simon's ambitions are to grow Aphria and Tilray's combined market share in Canada from around 20% to 30% while remaining cash flow positive. He also wants to remain the largest medical cannabis company in Europe, including through finding a strong strategic partner in the region, and leverage relationships with regulators to secure licenses in markets that legalize recreational pot.</p>\n<p>If Simon is successful, the company will build up a healthy war chest for the coming battle in the U.S. The SweetWater business is a good start, Simon said, and Tilray's assets include hemp food producer Manitoba Harvest, which is active in the U.S. But it may not be enough, and Simon knows that it could be an expensive fight.</p>\n<p>\"I will look to acquire the right [multistate operator] once I know what the market will legalize or how the market will legalize in the U.S.,\" Irwin said. \"I'd rather have to pay a little more when I can get into a business where the facts are known.\"</p>\n<p>Aphria shareholders will receive 0.8381 Tilray shares for each Aphria share they own when the companies merge, pending shareholder approval in the coming days. The group would operate under Tilray's name with the shares trading via Tilray's listing on the Nasdaq. Simon is to be chair and chief executive of the combined company, of which Aphria shareholders would own 62%.</p>\n<p>Aphria stock is up more than 130% to date, while shares in Tilray have jumped more than 140% since the beginning of the year.</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>Why this cannabis giant is betting on Europe to build a war chest ahead of the U.S. legalization bonanza</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\">\nWhy this cannabis giant is betting on Europe to build a war chest ahead of the U.S. legalization bonanza\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-12 13:33 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/why-this-cannabis-giant-is-betting-on-europe-to-build-a-war-chest-ahead-of-the-u-s-legalization-bonanza-11617990136?cx_testId=22&cx_testVariant=cx_1&cx_artPos=0&mod=home-page-cx#cxrecs_s><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>High-margin medical pot businesses in Europe are a boost in an industry struggling with profitability\nAphria is based in Leamington, Ontario.

(DON MACKINNON/AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE/GETTY IMAGES)\nCannabis deals in Europe will help pot giant Aphria build up a war chest ahead of an expected frenzy of mergers and acquisitions in the U.S., the company's chair and chief executive told MarketWatch ahead of the group's earnings on Monday.\nHigh-margin medical cannabis agreements in Europe represent critical waypoints on Aphria's (APHA.T) road to conquer the U.S., bolstering the company's balance sheet and putting it on firm footing with European regulators, said Irwin Simon.\nAs in the U.S., legal recreational cannabis remains on the horizon in Europe, where a combined population of more than 500 million in the U.K. and European Union makes it a lucrative proposition.\nAphria is set to complete its merger with Tilray $(TLRY)$ this quarter, creating the world's largest cannabis company by revenue. The combined company will push into the U.K., Sweden, Poland, Luxembourg, and China, with deal discussions ongoing in India, Aphria said.\nThe expansion in Europe will come in a few weeks at the earliest, when Tilray will begin distributing in Luxembourg, with Aphria and Tilray businesses pushing into Poland by the third quarter of this year.\nIn China, the group will have a distribution agreement for wellness products with CBD -- a non-psychoactive chemical in cannabis that is used to treat pain and anxiety, among other conditions. A similar agreement is under development in India.\nAphria is a key player in global cannabis with a market capitalization of $5.1 billion. The group is favored among analysts for being the first Canadian cannabis company to report a net profit. In December, Aphria agreed to combine with smaller rival Tilray, which has a market cap of $3.5 billion, through a reverse takeover.\nIn return for sharing its comparatively strong balance sheet with Tilray, Aphria would inherit the company's presence across 10 European countries, including the U.K., Germany, France, Spain, and Portugal, where it has a cultivation facility. Added to Aphria's growing site in Germany and European drug distribution business, the combined group would be the most dominant cannabis player in the region.\nSince recreational pot remains illegal across Europe and Asia, cannabis companies are able to sell their products in the regulated medical market at far higher prices than in legal recreational markets in the U.S. and Canada. This boosts margins while the nascent industry faces barriers to profits, including price pressure from competing companies and a well-entrenched black market.\nCountries in Europe have legalized cannabis for medical purposes, and the drug is decriminalized for recreational use in countries including Italy, Austria, Portugal, and the Netherlands. Many, including Simon, see the legalization of recreational weed as a matter of course in much of the region.\n\"In many ways, Europe is more progressive,\" Simon said. \"There's a lot of learning to take away from Europe that ultimately we bring to the U.S. once legalization happens here.\"\nBut for now, the drug remains federally illegal in the U.S., though individual states, including most recently New York, have legalized it. Prohibition at the national level has largely kept institutional money out of the sector and is a roadblock for interstate business and pot trade crossing the U.S.-Canada border.

The spec","content":"<p>New York (CNN Business)The names of the key players are different, but the lessons similar. The spectacular implosion of hedge fund Archegos Capital Management, much like the GameStop saga earlier this year, serves as a reminder of the dangers posed by extreme leverage, secret derivatives and rock-bottom interest rates.</p>\n<p>ViacomCBS (VIACA), Discovery (DISCA) and other media titans' stocks crashed Friday as Wall Street banks that lent to Archegos forced the firm to unwind its bets. The epic firesale wiped out more than half of Viacom's value last week alone.</p>\n<p>Major banks face billions of dollars in losses from their exposure to Archegos. Both Credit Suisse (CS) and Nomura tumbled Monday after warning of significant hits to their earnings.</p>\n<p>The most startling part about the tale of Archegos is that it is a firm that few people had ever heard of before this weekend. And yet in this era of easy money, Archegos was able to borrow so much that its failure created shockwaves large enough to ripple across Wall Street — and impact everyday Americans' retirement accounts.</p>\n<p>\"It's a wake-up call. With leverage, comes risk,\" said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at National Securities Corporation. \"This is the second time we've learned a lesson this year about leverage.\"</p>\n<p>In January, another hedge fund, Melvin Capital Management, nearly collapsed after its massive bets against GameStop (GME) were blown up by an army of traders on Reddit. Investors were surprised to learn about the sheer size of the short positions anticipating the video game retailer's stock price would fall.</p>\n<p>When GameStop shares instead went to the moon, Melvin Capital suffered staggering losses and was forced to reach a $2.8 billion bailout with larger rivals.</p>\n<p>\"We saw it on the short side when GameStop blew up. Now we are seeing it on the long side,\" Hogan said.</p>\n<p><b>Opaque financial instruments</b></p>\n<p>Archegos Capital was using borrowed money — apparently a ton of it — to make outsized bets that propped up media stocks. This type excessive leverage is made possible by extremely low interest rates from the Federal Reserve.</p>\n<p>The full scale of these bets wasn't clear until now.</p>\n<p>Perhaps in an effort to avoid making public disclosure filings, Archegos reportedly used derivatives known as total return swaps to mask some of its large investment positions. Investors using these swaps receive the total return of a stock from a dealer and those returns are typically amplified by leverage.</p>\n<p>Archegos could not be reached for comment on Monday.</p>\n<p>Typically, investors who own more than 5% of a stock are required to report that stake with the SEC.

The spectacular implosion of hedge fund Archegos Capital Management, much like the GameStop saga earlier this year, serves as a reminder of the dangers posed by extreme leverage, secret derivatives and rock-bottom interest rates.\nViacomCBS (VIACA), Discovery (DISCA) and other media titans' stocks crashed Friday as Wall Street banks that lent to Archegos forced the firm to unwind its bets. The epic firesale wiped out more than half of Viacom's value last week alone.\nMajor banks face billions of dollars in losses from their exposure to Archegos. Both Credit Suisse (CS) and Nomura tumbled Monday after warning of significant hits to their earnings.\nThe most startling part about the tale of Archegos is that it is a firm that few people had ever heard of before this weekend. And yet in this era of easy money, Archegos was able to borrow so much that its failure created shockwaves large enough to ripple across Wall Street — and impact everyday Americans' retirement accounts.\n\"It's a wake-up call. With leverage, comes risk,\" said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at National Securities Corporation. \"This is the second time we've learned a lesson this year about leverage.\"\nIn January, another hedge fund, Melvin Capital Management, nearly collapsed after its massive bets against GameStop (GME) were blown up by an army of traders on Reddit. Investors were surprised to learn about the sheer size of the short positions anticipating the video game retailer's stock price would fall.\nWhen GameStop shares instead went to the moon, Melvin Capital suffered staggering losses and was forced to reach a $2.8 billion bailout with larger rivals.\n\"We saw it on the short side when GameStop blew up. Now we are seeing it on the long side,\" Hogan said.\nOpaque financial instruments\nArchegos Capital was using borrowed money — apparently a ton of it — to make outsized bets that propped up media stocks. This type excessive leverage is made possible by extremely low interest rates from the Federal Reserve.\nThe full scale of these bets wasn't clear until now.\nPerhaps in an effort to avoid making public disclosure filings, Archegos reportedly used derivatives known as total return swaps to mask some of its large investment positions. Investors using these swaps receive the total return of a stock from a dealer and those returns are typically amplified by leverage.\nArchegos could not be reached for comment on Monday.\nTypically, investors who own more than 5% of a stock are required to report that stake with the SEC. These filings do not appear to have been made this time.\n\"Anytime a derivative is involved, you don't really know how deep the tentacles go,\" said Joe Saluzzi, co-head of trading at Themis Trading.\nThe share sale that broke the camel's back\nThis complex strategy backfired last week.\nSeeking to capitalize on its skyrocketing stock price, ViacomCBS announced plans for a $3 billion share sale. Up until that point, ViacomCBS shares had nearly tripled on the year. But the share sale appeared to be too much for the market to handle and the media boom morphed into a rout.\nArchegos faced margin calls from its Wall Street lenders.

Bill Hwang, the firm's founder and a protégé of hedge fund pioneer Julian Robertson, was previously enmeshed in an insider trading scandal at Tiger Asia Management, a hedge fund he founded.\nIn 2012, the SEC alleged Tiger Asia made nearly $17 million in illegal profits in a scheme involving Chinese bank stocks.

Keep in mind that January through March of last year marked the initial stages of the COVID-19 crisis, and PC sales fell off a cliff at first.</p>\n<p>It is against a lowered bar that first quarter 2021 PC shipments have likely dazzled. To be fair, however, easy comps do not fully explain why recent sales have impressed. IDC’s research manager elaborates:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “Unfulfilled demand from the past year has carried forward into the first quarter and additional demand brought on by the pandemic has also continued to drive volume. [In addition, although not reflected in unit shipment numbers], the market continues to struggle with setbacks including component shortages and logistics issues, each of which has contributed to an increase in average selling prices.”\n</blockquote>\n<p>From the preliminary data provided by the research companies, here is what else we know about computer sales in Q1:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Lenovo continues to lead the industry, with 24% to 25% of market share, followed closely by Windows-based peers HP and Dell;</li>\n <li>Despite holding the number 3 position in the market, Dell may have been the relative loser in first quarter device shipments;</li>\n <li>Apple remains a distant fourth-place player in the PC arena, although its market share seems to have increased by at least one percentage point to 8%.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>How Apple stock could benefit</b></p>\n<p>The Mac accounted for only 10% of Apple’s fiscal 2020 total revenues, and an even lower 8% during the more normalized 2019 period. Therefore, it is fair to say that PC sales probably do not carry as much weight in determining Apple stock price as does the iPhone, for example.</p>\n<p>However, the Mac may have performed extraordinarily well this time.

This key product segment could impress investors in the earnings season and boost Apple stock.\nThird-party research data on calendar first quarter personal computing sales has started to pour in. Depending on who is asked,IDCorGartner, PC shipments have increased by an impressive 32% to 55% in the March period.\nApple stock could benefit from what I believe will likely be outstanding Mac segment revenue growth that might reach 50% in fiscal second quarter, if not more.\nFigure 1: MacBook Pro 13\"\nIndustry-wide themes in PC\nAt the personal computer industry level, the first three months of 2021 have benefitted primarily from dismal sales in the comparable 2020 quarter. Keep in mind that January through March of last year marked the initial stages of the COVID-19 crisis, and PC sales fell off a cliff at first.\nIt is against a lowered bar that first quarter 2021 PC shipments have likely dazzled. To be fair, however, easy comps do not fully explain why recent sales have impressed. IDC’s research manager elaborates:\n\n “Unfulfilled demand from the past year has carried forward into the first quarter and additional demand brought on by the pandemic has also continued to drive volume. [In addition, although not reflected in unit shipment numbers], the market continues to struggle with setbacks including component shortages and logistics issues, each of which has contributed to an increase in average selling prices.”\n\nFrom the preliminary data provided by the research companies, here is what else we know about computer sales in Q1:\n\nLenovo continues to lead the industry, with 24% to 25% of market share, followed closely by Windows-based peers HP and Dell;\nDespite holding the number 3 position in the market, Dell may have been the relative loser in first quarter device shipments;\nApple remains a distant fourth-place player in the PC arena, although its market share seems to have increased by at least one percentage point to 8%.\n\nHow Apple stock could benefit\nThe Mac accounted for only 10% of Apple’s fiscal 2020 total revenues, and an even lower 8% during the more normalized 2019 period. Therefore, it is fair to say that PC sales probably do not carry as much weight in determining Apple stock price as does the iPhone, for example.\nHowever, the Mac may have performed extraordinarily well this time. In revenue growth terms, I believe that fiscal second period will likely be the best quarter for the segment in the past decade, at the very least. See graph below.\nFigure 2: Mac revenue growth since fiscal 2019.\nShould Mac growth reach my projection above, for example, I estimate that the segment alone could be responsible for about 6 percentage points of top-line increase to the entire company’s sales. This is the type of performance that might catch investors’ attention, and maybe nudge Apple shares higher.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2582,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":354647881,"gmtCreate":1617172115643,"gmtModify":1704696762385,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"About time","listText":"About time","text":"About time","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/354647881","repostId":"1163996400","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":747,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":352451990,"gmtCreate":1616996858610,"gmtModify":1704800594709,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh","listText":"Oh","text":"Oh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/352451990","repostId":"1179737264","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1179737264","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1616996700,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1179737264?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-29 13:45","market":"sh","language":"en","title":"Asian stocks rise after Wall Street highs and on vaccine optimism","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1179737264","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"Asian stocks rose Monday after Wall Street hit a new high and investors were encouraged by governmen","content":"<p>Asian stocks rose Monday after Wall Street hit a new high and investors were encouraged by government stimulus and the rollout of coronavirus vaccines.</p>\n<p>Shanghai, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Seoul advanced.</p>\n<p>Wall Street’s advance Friday was led by stocks that would benefit if vaccinations and government spending boost the U.S. economy as much as expected.</p>\n<p>Vaccines and stimulus have “helped to create an aura of high optimism,” John Bilton of JP Morgan Asset Management said in a report.

They dominate their industries, generate tons of cash and are obscenely profitable. Yet neither of the companies are in the prestigious Dow Jones Industrial Average — and for a good reason.</p>\n<p>BothAmazon(AMZN)andAlphabet(GOOGL)have stock prices in the quadruple digits. That makes them a no-go for the Dow, which weights its 30 components by share price rather than market value.So if either Amazon (currently priced north of $3,300 a share) or Alphabet (trading at just under $2,300) joined theDow, they would immediately have an outsized impact on the Dow.It wouldn't even be close: The priciest Dow stock currently isUnitedHealth(UNH), and at just over $400 a share, it makes up about 8% of the Dow's weighting.The case for splitting sharesBut if Amazon and Alphabet wanted to join the Dow, there's a solution to this price problem: The companies could announce a stock split, which increases the number of shares of the company has while cutting the price of each share to a more affordable level. It wouldn't change the companies' value.</p>\n<p>That's whatApple(AAPL)did in 2014, and it wasadded to the Dow in early 2015. Applesplit its stock again last year. Elon Musk'sTesla(TSLA)executed its ownstock splitlast year to make its surging stock more accessible to individual investors.</p>\n<p>Beyond the Dow question, splits can be compelling because some experts argue that having a more affordable price for a single share could attract even more investors. But that's admittedly less of an issue due to fractional trading, in which investors can buy a small piece of a company's shares through online brokers like Robinhood, Fidelity or Charles Schwab.There have been rumors about Amazon potentially announcing a split soon, especially now that Jeff Bezos is getting ready tohand over the CEO reinsto AWS headAndy Jassy.

They dominate their industries, generate tons of cash and are obscenely profitable. Yet neither of the companies are in the prestigious Dow Jones Industrial Average — and for a good reason.\nBothAmazon(AMZN)andAlphabet(GOOGL)have stock prices in the quadruple digits. That makes them a no-go for the Dow, which weights its 30 components by share price rather than market value.So if either Amazon (currently priced north of $3,300 a share) or Alphabet (trading at just under $2,300) joined theDow, they would immediately have an outsized impact on the Dow.It wouldn't even be close: The priciest Dow stock currently isUnitedHealth(UNH), and at just over $400 a share, it makes up about 8% of the Dow's weighting.The case for splitting sharesBut if Amazon and Alphabet wanted to join the Dow, there's a solution to this price problem: The companies could announce a stock split, which increases the number of shares of the company has while cutting the price of each share to a more affordable level. It wouldn't change the companies' value.\nThat's whatApple(AAPL)did in 2014, and it wasadded to the Dow in early 2015. Applesplit its stock again last year. Elon Musk'sTesla(TSLA)executed its ownstock splitlast year to make its surging stock more accessible to individual investors.\nBeyond the Dow question, splits can be compelling because some experts argue that having a more affordable price for a single share could attract even more investors. But that's admittedly less of an issue due to fractional trading, in which investors can buy a small piece of a company's shares through online brokers like Robinhood, Fidelity or Charles Schwab.There have been rumors about Amazon potentially announcing a split soon, especially now that Jeff Bezos is getting ready tohand over the CEO reinsto AWS headAndy Jassy. But Amazon didn't mention anything about a potential split when the companyreported earnings last week.Amazon was not immediately available for comment when asked by CNN Business if the company was considering a stock split, while a spokesperson for Alphabet declined to comment.High profile companies are 'split' on whether to splitThe pair of tech giants aren't the only companies trading at sky-high stock prices.

A similar agreement is under development in India.</p>\n<p>Aphria is a key player in global cannabis with a market capitalization of $5.1 billion. The group is favored among analysts for being the first Canadian cannabis company to report a net profit. In December, Aphria agreed to combine with smaller rival Tilray, which has a market cap of $3.5 billion, through a reverse takeover.</p>\n<p>In return for sharing its comparatively strong balance sheet with Tilray, Aphria would inherit the company's presence across 10 European countries, including the U.K., Germany, France, Spain, and Portugal, where it has a cultivation facility.

These assets are broadly expensive, Inton said, and groups like Aphria must be careful to not overpay in today's optimistic environment or the M&amp;A frenzy expected to come with legalization. \"How are you going to translate optimism into actual exposure without overpaying for assets when everybody else wants in?\" Inton said.</p>\n<p>The most ambitious play Aphria made in the U.S. was its acquisition of craft brewer SweetWater last December, which gave the company a reliable extra sales channel from alcohol and exposure to cannabis-infused beverages. Consumable derivatives of the drug are widely viewed as the future of the industry, and Tilray has a partnership with beverage giant AB InBev (ABI.BT).</p>\n<p>Ultimately, analysts point to inflated valuations across the cannabis sector as rooted in the market pricing in some level of U.S. legalization. For all the talk of expansion into Europe, Simon recognizes that America is critical to the future of the stock.</p>\n<p>His game plan to pounce on the U.S. market largely rests on building upon successes in Canada and Europe. Simon's ambitions are to grow Aphria and Tilray's combined market share in Canada from around 20% to 30% while remaining cash flow positive. He also wants to remain the largest medical cannabis company in Europe, including through finding a strong strategic partner in the region, and leverage relationships with regulators to secure licenses in markets that legalize recreational pot.</p>\n<p>If Simon is successful, the company will build up a healthy war chest for the coming battle in the U.S. The SweetWater business is a good start, Simon said, and Tilray's assets include hemp food producer Manitoba Harvest, which is active in the U.S. But it may not be enough, and Simon knows that it could be an expensive fight.</p>\n<p>\"I will look to acquire the right [multistate operator] once I know what the market will legalize or how the market will legalize in the U.S.,\" Irwin said. \"I'd rather have to pay a little more when I can get into a business where the facts are known.\"</p>\n<p>Aphria shareholders will receive 0.8381 Tilray shares for each Aphria share they own when the companies merge, pending shareholder approval in the coming days.

We note that the last time Congress legislated an increase in the rate, the policy became law in October 1986 but the increase did not take effect until January 1987.While a retroactive increase cannot be ruled out entirely, we believe it is very unlikely that it would apply to gains realized before May 2021 (at earliest).","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".IXIC":0.9,".SPX":0.9,".DJI":0.9,"SPY":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1502,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":352899300,"gmtCreate":1616920739200,"gmtModify":1704799981735,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting&nbsp;","listText":"Interesting&nbsp;","text":"Interesting","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/352899300","repostId":"2122058474","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":712,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":104187774,"gmtCreate":1620364062498,"gmtModify":1704342620947,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Money","listText":"Money","text":"Money","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/104187774","repostId":"1157328258","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1157328258","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1620360165,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1157328258?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-07 12:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon: The Most Clearly Undervalued Company","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1157328258","media":"Seeking alpha","summary":"SummaryAmazon is one of the companies whose growth has not yet reached its limit and not even entere","content":"<p>Summary</p><ul><li>Amazon is one of the companies whose growth has not yet reached its limit and not even entered the plateau phase.</li><li>In terms of comparative valuation, AMZN is undervalued against the market.</li><li>DCF-based Amazon stock price target suggests 30% upside potential.
