But in my opinion,it is better to invest in a company facing growth problems than aging problems.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":222,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":102880885,"gmtCreate":1620193088747,"gmtModify":1704340027062,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"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","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.</p><p>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.</p><p>News of the proposal- which was a staple of Biden’s presidential campaign platform - triggered sharp declines on Wall Street, with the benchmark S&amp;P 500 index(.SPX)down 1% in early afternoon, its steepest drop in more than a month.</p><p>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.</p><p>\"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.</p><p>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.</p><p>Biden has promised not to raise taxes on households earning less than $400,000.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>\"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.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ac23774dc0b788c1569e6bfa03da03d\" tg-width=\"6754\" tg-height=\"4701\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b90dcdfac3c849d0483fcf1eaee00814\" tg-width=\"7824\" tg-height=\"5219\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ac23774dc0b788c1569e6bfa03da03d\" tg-width=\"6754\" tg-height=\"4701\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>U.S. President Joe Biden speaks in the Cross Hall at the White House in Washington, U.S., April 20, 2021. REUTERS/Tom Brenner</i></p><p>She said Biden and his economic team did not believe the measures would have a negative impact on investment in the United States.</p><p>Yields on Treasuries, which move in the opposite direction to their price, fell to the day's low.</p><p><b>CAPITAL GAINS</b></p><p>Biden'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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>Biden's proposal should be viewed as an aggressive negotiating tactic, said Steve Chiavarone, a portfolio manager and equity strategist at Federated Hermes.</p><p>\"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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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%.</p><p>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.</p><p><b>Goldman Says \"No Surprise\" In Biden Cap Gains Proposal, Sees Congress Settling On 28% Tax Rate</b></p><p>Today 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).</p><p>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<b>\"Congress will settle on a more modest increase, potentially around 28%.\"</b>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.\"</p><p>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%.<b>We had expected the President to propose this as part of his “American Families Plan” and the proposal comes as no surprise.</b>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.</p><p><b>2. We expect Congress will pass a scaled back version of this tax increase.</b>While it is possible that Congress might pass the proposal in its entirety,<b>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.</b>This is also the rate that President Reagan and a Democratic House settled on a few decades ago when raising the tax from 20%.</p><p>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,<b>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</b>.</p><p>4.

The shares would go from $136 to $354 in mid-March.</p>\n<p>But since then, things have not gone so well. Note that BIDU stock is now fetching $216 and the market capitalization is $73 billion.</p>\n<p>Of course, Wall Street has been rotating away from growth stocks to cyclicals and travel companies, as the novel corona virus has begun to fade away. It is far from clear how long this move will last.</p>\n<p>However, as for Baidu, the fundamentals have certainly been improving. There has also been encouraging traction with its efforts with cloud computing and AI (Artificial Intelligence) and ML (Machine Learning). In the meantime, the company has looked for ways to enhance the stock price, such as with an increase in the buyback program.</p>\n<p>But despite all this, I actually think investors should be wary on BIDU stock. Why so? Well, here are some risk factors that can mean further selling:</p>\n<p><b>Competition</b></p>\n<p>The traditional key-word search business has remained quite robust over the past two decades. But the market is starting to change. There has been the emergence of video content, which has become a form of search. Oh, and even audio is becoming a factor. This has been the case with the huge success of Clubhouse as well as with AI assistants, like<b>Apple’s</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AAPL</u></b>) Siri and<b>Amazon’s</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AMZN</u></b>) Alexa.</p>\n<p>In such an environment, it can be tough for a legacy company like Baidu to remain competitive and relevant. Now it has been investing in building video platforms like<b>IQIYI</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>IQ</u></b>). Yet this business has been under pressure. In the latest quarter, therevenues dropped by 1% to $1.1 billion and there was a net loss of $237.2 million.</p>\n<p>Another issue for BIDU stock is<b>Tencent Holdings’</b>(OTCMKTS:<b><u>TCEHY</u></b>) WeChat. This platform – which has over 1.1 billion users – has become a core way for people to engage in a myriad of activities like e-commerce, ride hailing, video calling and so on.</p>\n<p><b>The AI Play</b></p>\n<p>It’s true that Baidu has built an impressive set of AI technologies. This has been a part of significant investment in R&amp;D.</p>\n<p>For example, the company’s DuerOS smart assistantlogged 6.2 billion MAU (Monthly Active User) queries, up 66% on a year-over-year basis. The system provides more than 4,400 skills and has a developer community of about 47,000.</p>\n<p>As for the autonomous technology, Baidu has certainly made progress. The Apollo Self Driving (ASD) system was able to snag partnerships with ten local and multinational automakers. The applications are for areas like automated parking, and high-definition maps.</p>\n<p>However, investors should temper their expectations. The reality is that self-driving technology has proven extremely complicated and the adoption has been slow. In other words, monetization will likely take time to hit critical mass.</p>\n<p><b>Regulatory Issues for BIDU Stock</b></p>\n<p>In the waning days of the Trump Administration, there were rules adopted to delist Chinese stocks if certain audit standards were not maintained. And yes, there aresigns that the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) may carry this out.

The shares would go from $136 to $354 in mid-March.\nBut since then, things have not gone so well. Note that BIDU stock is now fetching $216 and the market capitalization is $73 billion.\nOf course, Wall Street has been rotating away from growth stocks to cyclicals and travel companies, as the novel corona virus has begun to fade away. It is far from clear how long this move will last.\nHowever, as for Baidu, the fundamentals have certainly been improving. There has also been encouraging traction with its efforts with cloud computing and AI (Artificial Intelligence) and ML (Machine Learning). In the meantime, the company has looked for ways to enhance the stock price, such as with an increase in the buyback program.\nBut despite all this, I actually think investors should be wary on BIDU stock. Why so? Well, here are some risk factors that can mean further selling:\nCompetition\nThe traditional key-word search business has remained quite robust over the past two decades. But the market is starting to change. There has been the emergence of video content, which has become a form of search. Oh, and even audio is becoming a factor. This has been the case with the huge success of Clubhouse as well as with AI assistants, likeApple’s(NASDAQ:AAPL) Siri andAmazon’s(NASDAQ:AMZN) Alexa.\nIn such an environment, it can be tough for a legacy company like Baidu to remain competitive and relevant. Now it has been investing in building video platforms likeIQIYI(NASDAQ:IQ). Yet this business has been under pressure. In the latest quarter, therevenues dropped by 1% to $1.1 billion and there was a net loss of $237.2 million.\nAnother issue for BIDU stock isTencent Holdings’(OTCMKTS:TCEHY) WeChat. This platform – which has over 1.1 billion users – has become a core way for people to engage in a myriad of activities like e-commerce, ride hailing, video calling and so on.\nThe AI Play\nIt’s true that Baidu has built an impressive set of AI technologies. This has been a part of significant investment in R&D.\nFor example, the company’s DuerOS smart assistantlogged 6.2 billion MAU (Monthly Active User) queries, up 66% on a year-over-year basis. The system provides more than 4,400 skills and has a developer community of about 47,000.\nAs for the autonomous technology, Baidu has certainly made progress. The Apollo Self Driving (ASD) system was able to snag partnerships with ten local and multinational automakers. The applications are for areas like automated parking, and high-definition maps.\nHowever, investors should temper their expectations. The reality is that self-driving technology has proven extremely complicated and the adoption has been slow. In other words, monetization will likely take time to hit critical mass.\nRegulatory Issues for BIDU Stock\nIn the waning days of the Trump Administration, there were rules adopted to delist Chinese stocks if certain audit standards were not maintained. And yes, there aresigns that the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) may carry this out. For the most part, the Biden Administration is no fan of China either.\nSo if there is a delisting of BIDU stock, this would mean much less liquidity and transparency.  These are certainly major risk factors.\nBut there is something else investors need to be concerned about: China’s own regulatory moves. It appears that President Xi is getting more intrusive with big tech, as seen with the moves againstAlibaba(NYSE:BABA). All in all, this may ultimately result in new restrictions on Chinese companies that could hamper growth and profitability.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":296,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":347314725,"gmtCreate":1618464903167,"gmtModify":1704711246008,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"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,"repost":{"id":"1189551384","pubTimestamp":1618443691,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1189551384?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-15 07:41","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 falls from record as tech weakness offsets rally in bank shares, Nasdaq closes 1% lower","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1189551384","media":"CNBC","summary":"The S&P 500 slipped from record levels in volatile trading on Wednesday amid a sell-off in technolog","content":"<div>\n<p>The S&P 500 slipped from record levels in volatile trading on Wednesday amid a sell-off in technology shares, while investors digested the first batch of corporate earnings that largely exceeded ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/13/stock-market-futures-open-to-close-news.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained just 53.62 points, or 0.2%, to 33,730.89. The 30-stock benchmark climbed more than 200 points at one point to touch an all-time high. The Nasdaq Composite fell 1% to 13,857.84.Coinbase’s widely watched direct listing on Wednesday opened at $381 on the Nasdaq and shot up as high as $429, but shares quickly rolled over and closed at $328.28. As Coinbase shares reversed lower, bitcoin fell 1.5% to around $61,930 from a record high of more than $63,800. Crypto investors were hailing the company’s stock market debut as a major milestone for the industry after years of skepticism from Wall Street and regulators.Tesla, a holder of bitcoin and a speculative tech play, fell nearly 4%. Netflix and Facebook dropped more than 2% each, which Amazon, Microsoft and Apple all dipped at least 1%.Strong bank earnings helped support sentiment on Wednesday. Shares of Goldman Sachs climbed more than 2% after the bank blew past analysts’ expectations with record first-quarter net profits and revenues on strong performance from the firm’s equities trading and investment banking units.JPMorgan Chase beat analysts’ estimates on the top and bottom lines, helped by a $5.2 billion benefit from releasing money it had previously set aside for loan losses that didn’t develop. Shares of JPMorgan dipped 1.8%, however, paring its 2021 gains to 19%.Wells Fargo also reported earnings and revenue that exceeded expectations for its first quarter.The stock rallied 5.5%.“The first wave of Q1 big bank results look pretty much as strong as most analysts had expected – even stronger actually,” said JJ Kinahan, chief market strategist at TD Ameritrade. “It’s possible that we’re in a powerful market that’s in a forgiving mood when it comes to bad news. The path of least resistance for stocks continues to seem to be to go higher, with the market climbing a wall of worries that just doesn’t go away.”Bank stocks have risen sharply so far this year, with the S&P 500 financials sector gaining nearly 20%, easily outpacing the S&P 500.In other news, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Wednesday said the central bank will reduce its bond purchases likely well before it hikes interest rates.“We will reach the time at which we will taper asset purchases when we have made substantial further progress towards our goals from last December,” Powell said to the Economic Club of Washington. “That would in all likelihood be before, well before, the time we would consider raising interest rates. We have not voted on that order but that is the sense of the guidance.”On Tuesday, the Food and Drug Administration called for a pause in administering J&J’s Covid-19 vaccine after six people in the U.S. developed a rare disorder involving blood clots. The announcement triggered a sell-off in reopening plays like airlines and cruise line operators.Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla said the drugmaker can deliver 10% more vaccine doses to the U.S. by the end of May than previously expected. Plus, Moderna said its Covid-19 vaccine was more than 90% effective at protecting against the virus six months after a person’s second shot.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":309,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344184760,"gmtCreate":1618388274250,"gmtModify":1704710020447,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"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","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.

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},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":381,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":342696721,"gmtCreate":1618206783663,"gmtModify":1704707504038,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"SNDL going up","listText":"SNDL going up","text":"SNDL going up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/342696721","repostId":"2126510890","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2126510890","pubTimestamp":1618205596,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2126510890?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-12 13:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why this cannabis giant is betting on Europe to build a war chest ahead of the U.S. legalization bonanza","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2126510890","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"High-margin medical pot businesses in Europe are a boost in an industry struggling with profitabilit","content":"<p>High-margin medical pot businesses in Europe are a boost in an industry struggling with profitability</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc4364e8069f909311dde15cf0e6d052\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"414\"><span>Aphria is based in Leamington, Ontario.

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.

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.

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.

Fast forward to 2020, and the Swedish technology giant has 345 million users and 155 million paying subscribers across 178 markets. It still offers unlimited music streaming through ad-supported and monthly subscription products, but has recently launched headfirst into the podcast and spoken-word market as well.</p>\n<p>Here's why Spotify is set to dominate the global audio market, and why it should win versus its music, podcast, and legacy radio competitors.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a74fcf50d4c0734f7454290ab14ec8a2\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"406\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Secular tailwind</h2>\n<p>Music streaming has been around for over a decade, but industry growth, especially in non-Western markets, is just getting started. Spotify is entering more than 80 new markets in 2021, opening up the service to more than a billion potential new users in countries like Nigeria, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. Even in the U.S., <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of its most mature markets, hundreds of millions of dollars are still spent each year on CDs and digitally owned music through platforms like iTunes.&nbsp;Over time, the majority of this spend should migrate to streaming services like Spotify, simply because these platforms offer a better value proposition for consumers.</p>\n<p>It is estimated that at the end of 2019, only 30% of the U.S. population subscribed to a music streaming service. For reference, in Sweden, Spotify's home country, 52% of the population pays for music streaming. In Africa and Southeast Asia, where music streaming penetration is far lower than in Western markets, there is even more room for services like Spotify to grow.</p>\n<p>On the ad-supported side of things, Spotify operates with its free tier. Each year, over $10 billion is spent in the U.S. alone on traditional radio advertising. As with streaming TV, over time the majority of these advertising dollars will transition to on-demand platforms or disappear altogether as consumers opt for ad-free streaming subscriptions. Whatever happens, it will benefit Spotify.</p>\n<h2>How it can win vs. other music streamers</h2>\n<p>Spotify faces tough competition. <b>Apple</b> (NASDAQ:AAPL), <b>Google</b> (NASDAQ:GOOG), and <b>Amazon</b> (NASDAQ:AMZN), three tech giants with gigantic balance sheets, all have music streaming services that compete for users.&nbsp;Pandora, which is now owned by <b>Sirius XM</b> (NASDAQ:SIRI), is another competitor but with significantly fewer users. Spotify has won against the tech giants because the audio market is its No. 1 priority. This focus allows it to work intensely to improve the experience for artists, industry executives, and consumers. It's proven out in Spotify's user growth, which has stayed steady in between 25% and 32% for the last 10 quarters even with these companies vying for subscribers.</p>\n<h2>How it can win the podcast market</h2>\n<p>While Spotify has a solid lead in music streaming, it is working from behind in podcasts. Apple has supported podcasts since 2005 through iTunes and its pre-downloaded Apple Podcasts app, and has been the industry leader for the last decade. Spotify only added podcasts to its service in 2015, however. By leveraging its already large music listener base and recent exclusive deals with shows like <i>The Joe Rogan <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EXP.AU\">Experience</a></i>, the company is actually projected to <i>pass</i> Apple in market share by the end of this year.</p>\n<p>Spotify is also building a podcast advertising network as another way to separate itself from Apple and its smaller competitors. With its original and exclusive shows, plus Anchor and Megaphone (the two podcast creation platforms it owns), Spotify has tens of thousands of shows it can immediately start serving targeted advertisements on. With a global listener base, data it can use to target advertisements, and two popular production tools, Spotify is building a value proposition for both creators and advertisers that is unmatched in the podcast industry.</p>\n<p>There are a lot of moving parts to Spotify's business.

Fast forward to 2020, and the Swedish technology giant has 345 million users and 155 million paying subscribers across 178 markets. It still offers unlimited music streaming through ad-supported and monthly subscription products, but has recently launched headfirst into the podcast and spoken-word market as well.\nHere's why Spotify is set to dominate the global audio market, and why it should win versus its music, podcast, and legacy radio competitors.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nSecular tailwind\nMusic streaming has been around for over a decade, but industry growth, especially in non-Western markets, is just getting started. Spotify is entering more than 80 new markets in 2021, opening up the service to more than a billion potential new users in countries like Nigeria, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. Even in the U.S., one of its most mature markets, hundreds of millions of dollars are still spent each year on CDs and digitally owned music through platforms like iTunes. Over time, the majority of this spend should migrate to streaming services like Spotify, simply because these platforms offer a better value proposition for consumers.\nIt is estimated that at the end of 2019, only 30% of the U.S. population subscribed to a music streaming service. For reference, in Sweden, Spotify's home country, 52% of the population pays for music streaming. In Africa and Southeast Asia, where music streaming penetration is far lower than in Western markets, there is even more room for services like Spotify to grow.\nOn the ad-supported side of things, Spotify operates with its free tier. Each year, over $10 billion is spent in the U.S. alone on traditional radio advertising. As with streaming TV, over time the majority of these advertising dollars will transition to on-demand platforms or disappear altogether as consumers opt for ad-free streaming subscriptions. Whatever happens, it will benefit Spotify.\nHow it can win vs. other music streamers\nSpotify faces tough competition. Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Google (NASDAQ:GOOG), and Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), three tech giants with gigantic balance sheets, all have music streaming services that compete for users. Pandora, which is now owned by Sirius XM (NASDAQ:SIRI), is another competitor but with significantly fewer users. Spotify has won against the tech giants because the audio market is its No. 1 priority. This focus allows it to work intensely to improve the experience for artists, industry executives, and consumers. It's proven out in Spotify's user growth, which has stayed steady in between 25% and 32% for the last 10 quarters even with these companies vying for subscribers.\nHow it can win the podcast market\nWhile Spotify has a solid lead in music streaming, it is working from behind in podcasts. Apple has supported podcasts since 2005 through iTunes and its pre-downloaded Apple Podcasts app, and has been the industry leader for the last decade. Spotify only added podcasts to its service in 2015, however. By leveraging its already large music listener base and recent exclusive deals with shows like The Joe Rogan Experience, the company is actually projected to pass Apple in market share by the end of this year.\nSpotify is also building a podcast advertising network as another way to separate itself from Apple and its smaller competitors. With its original and exclusive shows, plus Anchor and Megaphone (the two podcast creation platforms it owns), Spotify has tens of thousands of shows it can immediately start serving targeted advertisements on. With a global listener base, data it can use to target advertisements, and two popular production tools, Spotify is building a value proposition for both creators and advertisers that is unmatched in the podcast industry.\nThere are a lot of moving parts to Spotify's business. It operates in dynamic industries with large competitors like Google and Apple. However, with its underlying business model, high switching costs, and the investments it is making in podcasts, Spotify is setting itself up to eventually dominate the audio market. I can't speak to where the stock will trade, but if you believe in Spotify's business model and the growth of on-demand audio, there is a high likelihood this business is much larger five years from now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":108,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":356778874,"gmtCreate":1616821613398,"gmtModify":1704799428884,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Leggo","listText":"Leggo","text":"Leggo","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/356778874","repostId":"2122772444","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":168,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3577351762187878","authorId":"3577351762187878","authorIdStr":"3577351762187878","name":"ChemGoh","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3577351762187878"},"content":"IncreaSe trade!","text":"IncreaSe trade!","html":"IncreaSe trade!"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":355490522,"gmtCreate":1617092825366,"gmtModify":1704801853892,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow...","listText":"Wow...","text":"Wow...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":6,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/355490522","repostId":"1154060329","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":172,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":353302855,"gmtCreate":1616459253477,"gmtModify":1704794313601,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"MSFT is undervalued&nbsp;","listText":"MSFT is undervalued&nbsp;","text":"MSFT is undervalued","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/353302855","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":95,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3574834957835877"},"content":"Profitable stock to go","text":"Profitable stock to go","html":"Profitable stock to go"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":344184760,"gmtCreate":1618388274250,"gmtModify":1704710020447,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"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","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.

This is the type of performance that might catch investors’ attention, and maybe nudge Apple shares higher.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":381,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":354647881,"gmtCreate":1617172115643,"gmtModify":1704696762385,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"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,"repost":{"id":"1163996400","pubTimestamp":1617094880,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1163996400?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-30 17:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Coursera: The Education Disruptor Goes Public","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1163996400","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"SummaryThe company is growing rapidly as a result of secular trends as well as the Covid-19 pandemic","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>The company is growing rapidly as a result of secular trends as well as the Covid-19 pandemic.</li><li>It is operating in a huge addressable market that is likely to grow for the foreseeable future.</li><li>Coursera enjoys many competitive advantages, among them a large, existing user base, price-to-cost advantages, and the ability to personalize content as a result of its trove of data.</li><li>Given its scale, and competitive advantages, the company should win an outsized share of its market opportunity.</li><li>However, because the company has not turned a profit, there is a chance that its stock may be too volatile in the near term.

The number of shares and the price range of the proposed offering are yet to be determined.According to PitchBook data, Coursera’s most recent valuation in the private markets was $2.5 billion. To date, the company has raised $464 million in venture capital, most recently,$130 million in a Series F roundlast July. Coursera’s biggest institutional shareholders are New Enterprise Associates (18.3% of company stock), G Squared (15.9%) and Kleiner Perkins (9.2%).</p><p><b>Operating Results</b></p><p>The company earned $293 million in revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, up 59% from 2019. Net losses widened by about $20 million year-on-year, reaching $66.8 million in 2020. Revenues shot up as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic’s effect on traditional education. In tandem with rising demand, operating costs associated with the company’s services rose, largely driven by the freemium content and marketing expenses. Coursera added over 12,000 new degree learners across the two years ended December 31, 2020 at an average acquisition cost of just below $2,000. The number of registered users rose by 65% year-on-year in 2020. Coursera’s accumulated deficit since its founding stood at $343.6 million as of December 31, 2020. The company does not expect to turn a profit in the foreseeable future.</p><p>The company’sCoursera for Campus,launched in late 2019to enable colleges to offer its library of MOOCs to their students, has been a key driver of recent revenue growth. At the start of the pandemic, Coursera made the program free to tertiary institutions until Sept. 30, 2020. Over 4,000 tertiary institutions from across the world signed up for the program, which, according to the company’s S-1 filing, makes it, “one of our fastest growing offerings”. As of December 31, 2020, over 130 tertiary institutions were paying for it.</p><p>At this point, it is hard to predict what the end of the pandemic would have on the company’s operating results.</p><p><b>The Strategy and Market Opportunity</b></p><p>Coursera is one of the most disruptive firms in the world. It has a flywheel approach to value creation, with significant price-to-cost advantages versus its competition. The company reported that about half of its new degree students in 2020 had been previously registered with Coursera and that its average student acquisition cost was less than $2,000. Its average student acquisition cost is lower than the industry standard. The edu-tech platform is able to efficiently acquire learners at scale because of the huge number of free, high-quality courses that it offers in partnership with top educational institutions and corporations; its ability to personalize content based on its wealth of data; the strength of word-of-mouth promotion by learners; the profitability of its affiliate paid marketing channel.</p><p>The platform offers a number of education tracks, for example:</p><ul><li>Specializations: A learner can pay between $39 and $99 a month for job-specific content across over 500 categories.</li><li>MasterTrack Certificates: For a quarter to a year, a learner can earn a certificate issued by a university-issued certificate.

The majority of its revenue (51%) was earned outside of the United States. Converting only a fraction of its 77 million registered users into paid users would change the economics of customer acquisition. The company’s present scale is a huge competitive advantage in the market.</p><p>A learner’s curriculum is designed to be “stackable”, which is to say that a learner can go through a domain in an incremental fashion. The company is able to leverage the huge volume of data it has accumulated from its over 220 million enrollments to personalize content. So, for example, Coursera’s Skills Graphs can suggest paths for job skills.</p><p>Coursera uses technology to drive down distribution costs, make content more affordable, extend access to less economically-endowed regions, help learners keep abreast of emerging skills, and grow its market opportunity.

He said “above-trend global growth” should last into 2022 and regions such as Europe that are at “peak pessimism” due to vaccine delays should accelerate later this year.\nThe Shanghai Composite IndexSHCOMProse 0.7% to 3,443.55 and the Nikkei 225NIKin Tokyo advanced 1.1% to 29,484.57. The Hang Seng :HSIin Hong Kong added 0.3% to 28,437.46.\nThe Kospi180721in Seoul was up less than 0.1% at 3,043.55 while Sydney’s S&P-ASX 200XJOshed 0.2% to 6,808.20. New Zealand and Southeast Asian markets advanced.\nMarkets have been swinging between optimism that vaccines might allow business and travel to return to normal and anxiety over setbacks in distribution and concern about possible inflation after massive government stimulus.\nInvestors were jolted last week by news Egypt’s Suez Canal, one of the busiest trade routes, was blocked by a cargo ship that became wedged into the waterway.\nOn Wall Street, the S&P 500SPXrose 1.7% on Friday to 3,974.54. A quarter of that gain came in the last five minutes of trading. That produced a weekly gain of 1.7% after a 0.8% decline the previous week.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIArose 1.4%, to 33,072.88. The Nasdaq CompositeCOMPclimbed 1.2%, to 13,138.72, though it is is 6.8% below last month’s record high.\nU.S. stocks have benefited from President Joe Biden’s proposal for higher spending on infrastructure. Steelmaker Nucor climbed 8.9% and miner Freeport-McMoRan rose 5.9%.\nIn energy markets, benchmark U.S. crudeCL.1lost $1.04 to $59.93 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract rose $2.41 to $60.97 on Friday. Brent crudeBRN00,the basis for international oil prices, retreated 96 cents to $63.47 per barrel in London. It advanced $2.62 the previous session to $64.57.\nThe dollarUSDJPYdeclined to 109.49 yen from Friday’s 109.69 yen. The euroEURUSDedged down to $1.1787 from the previous session’s $1.1790.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":423,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":102880885,"gmtCreate":1620193088747,"gmtModify":1704340027062,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"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,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":371,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":374334390,"gmtCreate":1619417394410,"gmtModify":1704723523363,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/374334390","repostId":"1177542686","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1177542686","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1619417048,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1177542686?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-26 14:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Microvision Becomes New WallStreetBets Favorite: What You Need To Know","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1177542686","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Technology company Microvision, Inc closed over 36% higher on Friday and is capturing the imaginatio","content":"<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/110cb6c50a5fb6c56330a91b8e648954\" tg-width=\"685\" tg-height=\"375\"></p>\n<p>Technology company&nbsp;<b>Microvision, Inc</b>&nbsp;closed over 36% higher on Friday and is capturing the imagination of retail traders on r/WallStreetBets, a Reddit forum associated with the&nbsp;<b>GameStop Corp</b>&nbsp;short squeeze earlier in the year.</p>\n<p><b>What Happened:</b>Microvision —&nbsp;which works on laser scanning, 3D sensing, and projection technology — was the most mentioned stock on a 24-hour basis on WallStreetBets, according to Quiver Quantitative’s tracker.</p>\n<p>The Redmond, Washington-based company attracted 230 mentions on the forum, while GameStop and&nbsp;<b>Tesla Inc</b>&nbsp;racked up 110 and 102 mentions each.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c32dd5ea47674f227e73fad6c3384212\" tg-width=\"2400\" tg-height=\"776\"><span>r/WallStreetBets Trends Courtesy Of Quiver Quantitative.

At $2 billion, the IPO of the maker of battery separators will be South Korea’s largest since mobile game-maker&nbsp;Netmarble Corp.&nbsp;raised $2.4 billion in 2017, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.</p>\n<p>The shares had been&nbsp;marketed&nbsp;at 78,000 won to 105,000 won each, with SK Innovation selling 12.8 million shares and SK IE Technology selling another 8.6 million. Final pricing is set for later on Monday.</p>\n<p>A representative for SK IE Technology declined to comment.</p>\n<p>SK IE Technology’s float comes as Korea is expected to see a record year for first-time share sales, with a number of billion-dollar-plus deals in the pipeline. Companies have already raised about $2.7 billion through IPOs in Korea since January 1, more than half of the $5 billion that was fetched in all of 2020, data compiled by Bloomberg show.</p>\n<p>A boom in retail trading in the country last year contributed to a strong 2020 for Korean IPOs, with mom-and-pop buyers piling into deals such as the float by K-pop superstar boy band BTS’ agency. Analysts expect that enthusiasm to continue this year given the country’s loose monetary policy.</p>\n<p>Hit game developer&nbsp;Krafton Inc.,LG Chem Ltd.’s battery business and KakaoBank Corp., Korea’s biggest mobile-only bank, are among the companies planning large offerings this year.</p>\n<p>SK Innovation, the energy and chemicals unit of South Korea’s third-largest conglomerate, SK Group, was a relative latecomer to the electric-car battery industry, embracing the technology only as part of a diversification push. It began developing lithium-ion batteries for hybrid electric vehicles in 2005 and spun off the unit in April 2019.

At $2 billion, the IPO of the maker of battery separators will be South Korea’s largest since mobile game-maker Netmarble Corp. raised $2.4 billion in 2017, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.\nThe shares had been marketed at 78,000 won to 105,000 won each, with SK Innovation selling 12.8 million shares and SK IE Technology selling another 8.6 million. Final pricing is set for later on Monday.\nA representative for SK IE Technology declined to comment.\nSK IE Technology’s float comes as Korea is expected to see a record year for first-time share sales, with a number of billion-dollar-plus deals in the pipeline. Companies have already raised about $2.7 billion through IPOs in Korea since January 1, more than half of the $5 billion that was fetched in all of 2020, data compiled by Bloomberg show.\nA boom in retail trading in the country last year contributed to a strong 2020 for Korean IPOs, with mom-and-pop buyers piling into deals such as the float by K-pop superstar boy band BTS’ agency. Analysts expect that enthusiasm to continue this year given the country’s loose monetary policy.\nHit game developer Krafton Inc.,LG Chem Ltd.’s battery business and KakaoBank Corp., Korea’s biggest mobile-only bank, are among the companies planning large offerings this year.\nSK Innovation, the energy and chemicals unit of South Korea’s third-largest conglomerate, SK Group, was a relative latecomer to the electric-car battery industry, embracing the technology only as part of a diversification push. It began developing lithium-ion batteries for hybrid electric vehicles in 2005 and spun off the unit in April 2019. Battery separators improve the output and stability of batteries.\nSK IE technology plans to use the IPO proceeds for capital expenditures related to capacity expansion in Poland and China, as well as for the upgrading and maintenance of its production facilities and equipment. The company announced last month it will spend 1.1 trillion won building new factories in Poland to meet growing demand amid an EV boom in Europe.\nSK IE Technology’s IPO is being managed by Mirae Asset Securities Co. and JPMorgan Chase & Co., assisted by Korea Investment & Securities Co. and Credit Suisse Group AG. Its shares are expected to start trading on May 11.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":462,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":342696721,"gmtCreate":1618206783663,"gmtModify":1704707504038,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"SNDL going up","listText":"SNDL going up","text":"SNDL going up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/342696721","repostId":"2126510890","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":481,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":372002492,"gmtCreate":1619154520116,"gmtModify":1704720494861,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Soar","listText":"Soar","text":"Soar","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/372002492","repostId":"1141178573","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":204,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":352899300,"gmtCreate":1616920739200,"gmtModify":1704799981735,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"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":108,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":104187774,"gmtCreate":1620364062498,"gmtModify":1704342620947,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"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","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.

Over the last 10 years, Amazon's capitalization has been in a qualitative linear relationship with its revenue:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f105c314902d29dae4d0f0e400aa2245\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p>There is also a certain influence of the company's revenue growth rate on its multiples:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8beca01b5624a15aab79465c580ded6b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p>Based on these two relationships and taking into account the influence of the growth of theM2 money stockin the US, it is possible to build another model that allows us to determine the balanced level of the company's capitalization. In addition, this model allows to model the growth of the company's capitalization based on the current expectations of analysts regarding the company's revenue growth in the next four quarters. Here is this model:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/083fa1dc350e5e54cc7d3145744c9e4c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d63f0cff5e0dd83343d26ee90552a033\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p><i>As you can see, firstly, this model indicates that the company's current price is already</i><i><b>below the balanced level</b></i><i>. And secondly, it assumes a</i><i><b>25% growth</b></i><i>in capitalization in the next four quarters.</i></p><p>#2 Comparative Valuation</p><p>In the previous block, I modeled Amazon's balanced price based on revenue. What is remarkable is that if we apply the same approach to the comparative valuation of the company using multiples, we will fail. At least I have not been able to find a single revenue-based multiple that would make it possible to successfully compare Amazon to other companies. But the forward P/E (next FY) multiple adjusted by the expected EPS annual growth rate made it possible to find a suitable model:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97ac0310bcef622e12c8c21d46979f7e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8d7573ff8a7fc00719a51042f09fc989\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>Source: VisualizedAnalytics.com</i></p><p><i>As you can see, judging by this multiple, Amazon is significantly undervalued.</i></p><p>#3 Discounted Cash Flow Model</p><p>When predicting Amazon's revenue for the next decade, I proceeded from the average expectations ofanalysts:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9f41298db73dbcd92469026cc4e767c4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"323\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>Source: Seeking Alpha Pro</i></p><p>When predicting the dynamics of Amazon's operating margin, I also proceeded from analysts'expectationsregarding the growth of the company's EPS, and taking into account the gradual increase in the tax rate to 25%. In my opinion, a gradual increase in the operating margin to 8% in the terminal year is a very realistic scenario.</p><p>Here is the calculation of the Weighted Average Cost of Capital:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/759163398701e54efd7cfabd11a0867d\" tg-width=\"480\" tg-height=\"374\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><i>Source: Author</i></p><p>Some explanations:</p><ul><li>In order to calculate the market rate of return, I used values of equityriskpremium (4.72%) and the current yield of UST10 as a risk-free rate (1.6%).</li><li>I used the currentvalueof the three-year beta coefficient (0.92).

Now, it has become exponential:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comThe 'Third-Party Seller Services' segment - the exponential growth continues:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comThe 'Subscription Services' (Amazon Prime) segment - here the acceleration remains, and the result of the last quarter was better than the trend:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comThe 'Other' (advertising services) segment has also showed a significant acceleration:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comThe growth trend of 'Amazon Web Services' has slowed down, but judging by the results of the last quarter, there is a gradual return to the previous trend:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comGeographically, Amazon's revenue was also significantly better than the trend:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comSo, statistically, not subjectively, we should recognize the acceleration of the company's growthin all key segments. In my opinion, this is exactly what is expected from Amazon.Further. Over the last 10 years, Amazon's capitalization has been in a qualitative linear relationship with its revenue:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comThere is also a certain influence of the company's revenue growth rate on its multiples:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comBased on these two relationships and taking into account the influence of the growth of theM2 money stockin the US, it is possible to build another model that allows us to determine the balanced level of the company's capitalization. In addition, this model allows to model the growth of the company's capitalization based on the current expectations of analysts regarding the company's revenue growth in the next four quarters. Here is this model:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comAs you can see, firstly, this model indicates that the company's current price is alreadybelow the balanced level. And secondly, it assumes a25% growthin capitalization in the next four quarters.#2 Comparative ValuationIn the previous block, I modeled Amazon's balanced price based on revenue. What is remarkable is that if we apply the same approach to the comparative valuation of the company using multiples, we will fail. At least I have not been able to find a single revenue-based multiple that would make it possible to successfully compare Amazon to other companies. But the forward P/E (next FY) multiple adjusted by the expected EPS annual growth rate made it possible to find a suitable model:Source: VisualizedAnalytics.comAs you can see, judging by this multiple, Amazon is significantly undervalued.#3 Discounted Cash Flow ModelWhen predicting Amazon's revenue for the next decade, I proceeded from the average expectations ofanalysts:Source: Seeking Alpha ProWhen predicting the dynamics of Amazon's operating margin, I also proceeded from analysts'expectationsregarding the growth of the company's EPS, and taking into account the gradual increase in the tax rate to 25%. In my opinion, a gradual increase in the operating margin to 8% in the terminal year is a very realistic scenario.Here is the calculation of the Weighted Average Cost of Capital:Source: AuthorSome explanations:In order to calculate the market rate of return, I used values of equityriskpremium (4.72%) and the current yield of UST10 as a risk-free rate (1.6%).I used the currentvalueof the three-year beta coefficient (0.92). For the terminal year, I used Beta equal to 1.To calculate the Cost of Debt, I used the interest expense for 2019 and 2020 divided by the debt value for the same years.Here is the model itself:(In high resolution)Source: AuthorThe DCF-based target price of Amazon's shares is $4,280, offering 29% upside.Final thoughtsAmazon is one of the companies whose growth has not yet reached its limit and not even entered the plateau phase. In a sense, this is a startup with $73 billion cash.The fact that Amazon remains in the acceleration phase does not mean that its capitalization is constantly undervalued. But in this case, based on the patterns between the company's capitalization and the parameters of its revenue, we can conclude that the company isundervalued.Comparing Amazon to other companies through the prism of expected EPS growth, it must be admitted that the company ismuch cheaperthan the market.DCF model based on average expectations analysts indicate a 30% undervaluation. At the start of the year, a similarmodelindicated a 20% undervaluation.When you look at Amazon's revenue forecast for the next decade, you realize that the company will face growth problems. But in my opinion,it is better to invest in a company facing growth problems than aging problems.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":222,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":109129797,"gmtCreate":1619674923919,"gmtModify":1704727817615,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574834957835877"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/109129797","repostId":"1129894067","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":370,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":371071621,"gmtCreate":1618896881363,"gmtModify":1704716527547,"author":{"id":"3574834957835877","authorId":"3574834957835877","authorIdStr":"3574834957835877","name":"Jeph","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d84ddcaae60f793877f3447bc18beda","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"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,"repost":{"id":"1175524598","pubTimestamp":1618895037,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1175524598?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-20 13:03","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Baidu Stock: 3 Reasons To Stay Away","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1175524598","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"The regulatory issues continue to be a problem.\n\nAlong with various other large Chinese tech compani","content":"<blockquote>\n The regulatory issues continue to be a problem.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Along with various other large Chinese tech companies,<b>Baidu</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>BIDU</u></b>) stock started an impressive rally in November.
