And for Baidu, it marks a further effort to diversify its business well beyond advertising.\nBaidu’s Nasdaq-traded shares jumped more than 3.5% after hours. They climbed 6.67% on Tuesday.\nBaidu’s chip company would be a subsidiary, with the search giant likely to be the majority shareholder, the person said. Venture capital firms GGV and IDG Capital are involved in early stage discussions to invest in Baidu’s chip firm, the source added. Both firms have extensive investments in China.\nBaidu declined to comment when contacted by CNBC. IDG Capital was not immediately available for comment.Calls to GGV’s offices in Singapore, Shanghai and Beijing went unanswered.\nCurrently, Baidu has an in-house chip unit that has helped to develop its Kunlun semiconductors, designed to process huge amounts of data for artificial intelligence applications. But a standalone chip company is seen helping Baidu to better commercialize its technology, the source said.\nThe semiconductor business would aim to sell chips to customers in several industries including automakers, which are currently facing a global chip shortage.\nA standalone chip maker could also tie into other parts of Baidu’s businesses, such as its driverless car software.\nDiversification flurry\nBaidu’s move is part of push by the company to diversify its broader business — an effort which since September alone has seen the Chinese technology giant raise money for a biotech firm and a standalone electric vehicle company.\nAdvertising accounts for most of Baidu’s revenue currently, but other operations are contributing a growing percentage of sales. Ad-related revenue, which the company refers to in its earnings statements as online marketing services, accounted for around 80% of total revenue in 2018. That proportion fell to 71% in the third quarter of 2020, the most recent published results.\nBaidu’s semiconductor focus comes as the Chinese government tries to boost domestic independence around that critical technology — a trend that has accelerated during China’s trade war with the United States.\nChinese internet giant Tencent, the owner of messaging app WeChat,recently invested in an AI chip start-up.\nIn 2019, e-commerce company Alibaba launched its first chip to power artificial intelligence processes.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":226,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":383977346,"gmtCreate":1612834280585,"gmtModify":1704874768357,"author":{"id":"3574943968736312","authorId":"3574943968736312","name":"Dendenislit","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8650796e48e17621c226e2bfd4ca39a4","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574943968736312","authorIdStr":"3574943968736312"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Please like!","listText":"Please like!","text":"Please like!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/383977346","repostId":"1195153829","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1195153829","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1612781502,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1195153829?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-08 18:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here’s What the GameStop Affair Has Taught Us","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1195153829","media":"Barrons","summary":"This commentary was issued recently by money managers, research firms, and market newsletter writers","content":"<p><i>This commentary was issued recently by money managers, research firms, and market newsletter writers and has been edited by Barron’s.</i></p>\n<p>What GameStop Taught Us</p>\n<p><i>The Weekly Speculator</i></p>\n<p><i>Marketfield Asset Management</i></p>\n<p>marketfield.com</p>\n<p>Feb. 4: After all is said and done, one of the most lasting effects of theGameStop(ticker: GME) episode will be to educate many market participants about the key role and ultimate power held by the clearing institution, the Depository Trust Company.

While higher oil prices benefit oil exporters, they hurt the economies of oil importers, often with a lag.</p>\n<p>A great example of these dynamics is China. The Chinese economy is a large oil importer; hence, rising oil prices act as a tax on Chinese growth. Moreover, Chinese A shares massively overweight tech stocks, which receive no benefit from higher energy prices. In fact, over the past four years, increasing Brent prices reliably lead to a decline in on-shore domestic markets by roughly three months. The current setup is reminiscent of early 2018. Back then, Chinese A shares had been rallying for a few months after oil prices had started to rally. Ultimately, a deceleration in Chinese growth and cautious policy making from Beijing resulted in a powerful selloff of Chinese equities. Today, Chinese growth is once again decelerating and Beijing is conducting some significant regulatory tightening, while the People’s Bank of China is draining liquidity. Thus, a significant correction in Chinese shares is likely this spring.</p>\n<p>A lower-octane strategy to play these dynamics is to go long United Kingdom equities relative to Germany’s while espousing the implicit currency exposure. German equities are extremely underweight energy, and Germany imports its entire oil consumption. Meanwhile, the U.K. benchmark is replete with energy stocks and the U.K. remains an oil producer, even if it imports some of its oil (rising Brent represents a comparatively smaller tax on the U.K. economy). As a side benefit, the pound is very cheap against the euro and the U.K.’s vaccination campaign is massively ahead of the eurozone’s, which could result in earlier economic dividends north of the Channel and hurt the euro/pound in the process.</p>\n<p>—Mathieu Savary and Team</p>\n<p>High-Yield Opportunities</p>\n<p><i>Carret Credit Insight</i></p>\n<p><i>Carret Asset Mangaement</i></p>\n<p>carret.com</p>\n<p>Feb. 3: At year-end 2020, the iBoxx High-Yield Index yielded 4.23%, an all-time low. Spreads also registered record tightness. Low yields aren’t a surprise as investors globally reach for income. The Federal Reserve has backstopped the “fallen angels,” allowing many high-yield (HY) companies to refinance at ever-lower rates and extend upcoming maturities for another day. Strong equity markets are forecasting an earnings rebound, and the vaccines will bring brighter days soon. We continue to find attractive values in the short/intermediate portion of the high-quality HY market.</p>\n<p>We want to share a recent academic study with you regarding the risk and returns in the HY bond market: George Mason Universityrecently publisheda report on HY bond-fund returns and volatility relative to equities (S&P 500). Since 1990, the average HY bond fund has delivered average annualized returns of 7.1% with a volatility of 7.7%. Over the same time period, the S&P 500 delivered an average annualized return of 7.8%, but with almost double the volatility of 14.5%. The conclusion: HY bonds have paid total returns near those of the U.S. stock market with half of the volatility. We believe the HY market will offer competitive returns in the decade ahead, as equity valuations have risen and Treasury yields have plummeted.

And that was still true in the fourth quarter and all of last year, even in the pandemic environment.</p>\n<p>The FAANG stocks are Facebook Inc.,Apple Inc.,Amazon.com Inc.,Netflix Inc.and Google holding company Alphabet Inc..Their combined market capitalization is $6.1 trillion, giving them an 18% weighting in the SPDR S&P 500 ETFSPY,+0.39%and a 33% weighting in the Invesco QQQ Trust,which track the S&P 500 Indexand the Nasdaq-100 Index,respectively.</p>\n<p>But the FAANG acronym seems a bit long in the tooth. Microsoft Corp.’sMSFT,+0.08%market cap is $1.8 trillion, making it second in size among the S&P 500 after Apple. So the following tables include Microsoft, along with the FAANGs.</p>\n<p>All of these companies have reported their results for the fourth calendar quarter. All have fiscal years that match the calendar year except for Apple, whose fiscal year ends in September. So the following figures are all for the three months through December.</p>\n<p><b>Sales and gross margins</b></p>\n<p>Leaving the FAANG group in the same order, followed by Microsoft, here are growth figures for fourth-quarter sales and sales per share from a year earlier, along with a comparison of gross margins for both periods:</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n <tr>\n <th>COMPANY</th>\n <th>TICKER</th>\n <th>INCREASE IN SALES</th>\n <th>INCREASE IN SALES PER SHARE</th>\n <th>GROSS MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020</th>\n <th>GROSS MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019</th>\n </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n <tr>\n <td>FACEBOOK INC.

If sales per share grow faster than sales, it means the average share count has declined — share buybacks have outweighed the issuance of new shares to raise money (hardly likely for this group) or the shoveling of new shares to executives as part of compensation packages. A rising share count means shareholders’ ownership positions are being diluted. This lowers earnings per share and can be a drag on returns if it continues in a sustained way over long periods.</p>\n<p>A company’s gross margin is its sales, less the cost of goods sold, divided by sales. It doesn’t reflect overhead expenses, but it does factor in discounting, coupons, commissions or other selling expenses. If a company’s sales are expanding but its gross margin is contracting, it may be a sign that competition is becoming more difficult. If the gross margin is expanding while sales are growing, it’s a healthy sign of demand for products and services. Any one quarter or any one pandemic can lead to shifts in gross margins, but it is still a useful trend to follow.</p>\n<p>All the above sales results are fantastic. Gross margins may have gone either way, but they also show the advantage of certain business models. Facebook’s gross margin is very impressive, even if it has narrowed a bit. Microsoft’s gross margin expanded and that high number reflects the success of its continued movement toward subscription distribution.</p>\n<p><b>Operating margins</b></p>\n<p>The following operating margins are earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) divided by sales. Most investors are aware that GAAP earnings-per-share figures can be very much distorted by one-time items. The operating margins provide a measure of earnings from a company’s core business.</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n <tr>\n <th>COMPANY</th>\n <th>TICKER</th>\n <th>OPERATING MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020</th>\n <th>OPERATING MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019</th>\n </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n <tr>\n <td>FACEBOOK INC.

This is likely to keep its profits and operating margins low. But as you can seehere, investors have gained handsomely from CEO Jeff Bezos’ long-term strategy.</p>\n<p><b>EPS and net income margins</b></p>\n<p>A company’s net income margin is its profit divided by revenue. In a market that greatly values sales growth (or subscriber growth), earnings per share may be one of the least important figures to look at each earnings season. Not only are EPS affected by myriad one-time items, the entire Wall Street apparatus is designed to set up “earnings beats” quarter after quarter to drive positive headlines. Even if a company’s overall business is in decline, with earnings and sales sliding, it is very likely to report EPS and sales that are higher than the consensus estimate among analysts.</p>\n<p>With that out of the way, here are comparisons of quarterly earnings and net income margins for the group:</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n <tr>\n <th>COMPANY</th>\n <th>TICKER</th>\n <th>EPS - CALENDAR Q4, 2020</th>\n <th>EPS - CALENDAR Q4, 2019</th>\n <th>NET INCOME MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020</th>\n <th>NET INCOME MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019</th>\n </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n <tr>\n <td>FACEBOOK INC.

And that was still true in the fourth quarter and all of last year, even in the pandemic environment.\nThe FAANG stocks are Facebook Inc.,Apple Inc.,Amazon.com Inc.,Netflix Inc.and Google holding company Alphabet Inc..Their combined market capitalization is $6.1 trillion, giving them an 18% weighting in the SPDR S&P 500 ETFSPY,+0.39%and a 33% weighting in the Invesco QQQ Trust,which track the S&P 500 Indexand the Nasdaq-100 Index,respectively.\nBut the FAANG acronym seems a bit long in the tooth. Microsoft Corp.’sMSFT,+0.08%market cap is $1.8 trillion, making it second in size among the S&P 500 after Apple. So the following tables include Microsoft, along with the FAANGs.\nAll of these companies have reported their results for the fourth calendar quarter. All have fiscal years that match the calendar year except for Apple, whose fiscal year ends in September. So the following figures are all for the three months through December.\nSales and gross margins\nLeaving the FAANG group in the same order, followed by Microsoft, here are growth figures for fourth-quarter sales and sales per share from a year earlier, along with a comparison of gross margins for both periods:\n\n\n\nCOMPANY\nTICKER\nINCREASE IN SALES\nINCREASE IN SALES PER SHARE\nGROSS MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020\nGROSS MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019\n\n\n\n\nFACEBOOK INC. CLASS A\nFB\n33.2%\n32.3%\n81.44%\n83.44%\n\n\nApple Inc.\nAAPL\n21.6%\n26.6%\n40.05%\n38.10%\n\n\nAmazon.com Inc.\nAMZN\n43.6%\n41.4%\n36.85%\n38.27%\n\n\nAlphabet Inc. Class C\nGOOG\n23.7%\n25.9%\n54.16%\n54.29%\n\n\nNetflix Inc.\nNFLX\n21.5%\n20.5%\n37.31%\n36.61%\n\n\nMicrosoft Corp.\nMSFT\n16.7%\n17.9%\n67.05%\n66.51%\n\n\n\nFactSet\nSales per share numbers are included in addition to raw sales, because the per-share numbers point to increases or reductions in share counts. If sales per share grow faster than sales, it means the average share count has declined — share buybacks have outweighed the issuance of new shares to raise money (hardly likely for this group) or the shoveling of new shares to executives as part of compensation packages. A rising share count means shareholders’ ownership positions are being diluted. This lowers earnings per share and can be a drag on returns if it continues in a sustained way over long periods.\nA company’s gross margin is its sales, less the cost of goods sold, divided by sales. It doesn’t reflect overhead expenses, but it does factor in discounting, coupons, commissions or other selling expenses. If a company’s sales are expanding but its gross margin is contracting, it may be a sign that competition is becoming more difficult. If the gross margin is expanding while sales are growing, it’s a healthy sign of demand for products and services. Any one quarter or any one pandemic can lead to shifts in gross margins, but it is still a useful trend to follow.\nAll the above sales results are fantastic. Gross margins may have gone either way, but they also show the advantage of certain business models. Facebook’s gross margin is very impressive, even if it has narrowed a bit. Microsoft’s gross margin expanded and that high number reflects the success of its continued movement toward subscription distribution.\nOperating margins\nThe following operating margins are earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) divided by sales. Most investors are aware that GAAP earnings-per-share figures can be very much distorted by one-time items. The operating margins provide a measure of earnings from a company’s core business.\n\n\n\nCOMPANY\nTICKER\nOPERATING MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020\nOPERATING MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019\n\n\n\n\nFACEBOOK INC.

This is likely to keep its profits and operating margins low. But as you can seehere, investors have gained handsomely from CEO Jeff Bezos’ long-term strategy.\nEPS and net income margins\nA company’s net income margin is its profit divided by revenue. In a market that greatly values sales growth (or subscriber growth), earnings per share may be one of the least important figures to look at each earnings season. Not only are EPS affected by myriad one-time items, the entire Wall Street apparatus is designed to set up “earnings beats” quarter after quarter to drive positive headlines. Even if a company’s overall business is in decline, with earnings and sales sliding, it is very likely to report EPS and sales that are higher than the consensus estimate among analysts.\nWith that out of the way, here are comparisons of quarterly earnings and net income margins for the group:\n\n\n\nCOMPANY\nTICKER\nEPS - CALENDAR Q4, 2020\nEPS - CALENDAR Q4, 2019\nNET INCOME MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020\nNET INCOME MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019\n\n\n\n\nFACEBOOK INC.

It is money that can be deployed for any corporate purpose, including expansion, share repurchases or dividends. It is incredibly important to the FAANGs and Microsoft, to drive new product and service development.\nHere are comparisons of quarter free cash flow per share for the group:\n\n\n\nCOMPANY\nTICKER\nFREE CASH FLOW PER SHARE - CALENDAR Q4, 2020\nFREE CASH FLOW PER SHARE - CALENDAR Q4, 2019\n\n\n\n\nFACEBOOK INC.

Thinknum's plans were mentioned in a Barrron's article over the weekend . \n</p>\n<p>\n Spiwak said that he envisions clients that use the services of companies like Thinknum as a way to not only profit from chatter on social-media platforms but also as a form of crisis management, as klatches of individual investors gather on platforms to coalesce around investing ideas. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"This is very new and we see it as a crisis-management purchase, as an insurance policy, and a way to increase returns and minimize losses,\" for clients he said. \n</p>\n<p>\n Thinknum's service, which kicked off last week, is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the most expensive that it offers to clients, costing just under $25,000 a year, to track the number of times New York Stock Exchange-listed companies, and those on the Nasdaq, are called out on sites like r/wallstreetbets or other Reddit sub-reddits. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"Demand has been massive -- we've received over 100 inbound requests from hedge funds in the last few days,\" wrote the Thinknum marketing director. \n</p>\n<p>\n Thus far the interest in these pricey products come from fund managers but the company says it also is fielding inquiries from institutional investors looking for \"an insurance policy to protect themselves from Reddit.\" \n</p>\n<p>\n The moves by the alternative data company come as videogame retailer GameStop and other companies, like movie chain AMC Entertainment and headphone maker Koss Corp. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/KOSS\">$(KOSS)$</a>, have experienced a parabolic run-up in share values over a short period as investors congregating on sites like Reddit's r/wallstreetbets, poured millions into heavily shorted companies to spark a rally in those shares. \n</p>\n<p>\n The recent advance in heavily shorted shares targeted by the army of individual investors appeared to be causing pain for hedge funds. \n</p>\n<p>\n Melvin Capital Management, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the hedge funds seen at the center of the kerfuffle over GameStop, lost 53% on its investments in January, The Wall Street Journal wrote , citing people familiar. WSJ also said that another hedge fund Maplelane Capital ended January with a roughly 45% loss. \n</p>\n<p>\n Meanwhile, Andrew Left, founder of Citron Research, last Friday, a famed short seller, altered his strategy, saying that his firm would no longer be publishing short selling reports. Left was seen drawing the ire of individual investors for his negative views on GameStop -- a bricks-and-mortar retailer that he says was worth only around $20 in the midst of a growing shift of digital videogame sales. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"Young people want to buy stocks. That's the zeitgeist,\" said Left about his decision to exit the business of identifying companies that he thinks are overvalued and announcing publicly that he 's betting its shares will sink. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"They don't want to short stocks, so I'm going to help them buy stocks,\" Left said of his focus on long investing. \n</p>\n<p>\n Other companies, including SimilarWeb are also trying to promote tools for investors to track investing and discussions on popular social-media sites and on some of popular trading platforms. \n</p>\n<p>\n SimilarWeb says that it can track searches for stock ticker symbols among users of the mobile app and desktop users on Robinhood Markets platform, for example. SimilarWeb says that search activity can be indicative of actual trading and can help clients identify trends early, according to Ed Lavery, director of investor solutions at SimilarWeb. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"Demand for data on retail trading platforms has surged,\" Lavery told MarketWatch in a phone interview Monday afternoon. \n</p>\n<p>\n Lavery said the estimated data on search that SimilarWeb offers has been something that the company has been tracking for years but had only been solicited by clients in recent days. He said Similar has similar data on Charles Schwab <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SCHW\">$(SCHW)$</a> and E-Trade Financial but Robinhood has drawn the most interest among its users. \n</p>\n<p>\n \" Robinhood as a platform is making more noise,\" he said. \n</p>\n<p>\n SESAMm, which bills itself as one of the leading providers of analytics and artificial intelligence for investment professionals, also had either developed or was working on services that could help identify social-media trends, said Spiwak. \n</p>\n<p>\n SESAMm, which recently scored some 7.5 million in venture-capital funding from NewAlpha Asset Management and global investment firm The Carlyle Group, didn't immediately return an email for comment. \n</p>\n<p>\n To be sure, other services attempt to offer such insights on investing trends on social media free. Those include poolsapp . \n</p>\n<p>\n Meanwhile, the liquidation of profitable long positions by hedge funds and other investors who needed cash to cover losses on losing short positions has been blamed for the Dow Jones Industrial Average , the S&P 500 index and the Nasdaq Composite Index registering their worst weekly losses since October last Friday. \n</p>\n<p>\n Markets were attempting to claw back from those losses early Monday, kicking off what is likely to be a turbulent February. \n</p>\n<p>\n -Mark DeCambre;

While higher oil prices benefit oil exporters, they hurt the economies of oil importers, often with a lag.</p>\n<p>A great example of these dynamics is China. The Chinese economy is a large oil importer; hence, rising oil prices act as a tax on Chinese growth. Moreover, Chinese A shares massively overweight tech stocks, which receive no benefit from higher energy prices. In fact, over the past four years, increasing Brent prices reliably lead to a decline in on-shore domestic markets by roughly three months. The current setup is reminiscent of early 2018. Back then, Chinese A shares had been rallying for a few months after oil prices had started to rally. Ultimately, a deceleration in Chinese growth and cautious policy making from Beijing resulted in a powerful selloff of Chinese equities. Today, Chinese growth is once again decelerating and Beijing is conducting some significant regulatory tightening, while the People’s Bank of China is draining liquidity. Thus, a significant correction in Chinese shares is likely this spring.</p>\n<p>A lower-octane strategy to play these dynamics is to go long United Kingdom equities relative to Germany’s while espousing the implicit currency exposure. German equities are extremely underweight energy, and Germany imports its entire oil consumption. Meanwhile, the U.K. benchmark is replete with energy stocks and the U.K. remains an oil producer, even if it imports some of its oil (rising Brent represents a comparatively smaller tax on the U.K. economy). As a side benefit, the pound is very cheap against the euro and the U.K.’s vaccination campaign is massively ahead of the eurozone’s, which could result in earlier economic dividends north of the Channel and hurt the euro/pound in the process.</p>\n<p>—Mathieu Savary and Team</p>\n<p>High-Yield Opportunities</p>\n<p><i>Carret Credit Insight</i></p>\n<p><i>Carret Asset Mangaement</i></p>\n<p>carret.com</p>\n<p>Feb. 3: At year-end 2020, the iBoxx High-Yield Index yielded 4.23%, an all-time low. Spreads also registered record tightness. Low yields aren’t a surprise as investors globally reach for income. The Federal Reserve has backstopped the “fallen angels,” allowing many high-yield (HY) companies to refinance at ever-lower rates and extend upcoming maturities for another day. Strong equity markets are forecasting an earnings rebound, and the vaccines will bring brighter days soon. We continue to find attractive values in the short/intermediate portion of the high-quality HY market.</p>\n<p>We want to share a recent academic study with you regarding the risk and returns in the HY bond market: George Mason Universityrecently publisheda report on HY bond-fund returns and volatility relative to equities (S&P 500). Since 1990, the average HY bond fund has delivered average annualized returns of 7.1% with a volatility of 7.7%. Over the same time period, the S&P 500 delivered an average annualized return of 7.8%, but with almost double the volatility of 14.5%. The conclusion: HY bonds have paid total returns near those of the U.S. stock market with half of the volatility. We believe the HY market will offer competitive returns in the decade ahead, as equity valuations have risen and Treasury yields have plummeted.

All its coffee shops will remain open for business and the Chapter 15 petition will not materially impact the company’s day-to-day operations, according to a statement issued on Friday.\n“The company continues to meet its trade obligations in the ordinary course of business, including paying suppliers, vendors and employees,” the statement said.\nThe bankruptcy filing caps a saga in which the coffee chain, once thought of as a challenger to Starbucks Corp.’s dominance in China, fired its chairman and chief executive officer, paid hundreds of millions out in fines to both Chinese and U.S. regulators, and saw its stock plunge 90% before being delisted by Nasdaq.\nThe U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission fined the company $180 million in December after finding that it intentionally fabricated more than $300 million in sales from April 2019 through January 2020. The company has never officially admitted or denied the SEC’s allegations.\nLuckin’s alleged malfeasance, which involved misstating its revenue, expenses and operating loss, was all done to give investors the false impression that the company was experiencing miraculous growth, the SEC said.\nThe chain’s collapse has led to renewed scrutiny of Chinese companies that sell shares on U.S. exchanges without adhering to rules that require their audits be inspected by American regulators. The fallout also triggered fresh concerns for global investors about China’s corporate governance, while contributing to the U.S. Congress passing legislation late last year that could lead to Chinese businesses being kicked out of American markets.\nFounded in 2017, Luckin operated about 4,500 stores in mainland China as of the end of 2019. The chain pulled in customers by offering massive discounts and sought to reach 10,000 locations by the end of 2021.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":280,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":363060322,"gmtCreate":1614083701466,"gmtModify":1704887855232,"author":{"id":"3574943968736312","authorId":"3574943968736312","name":"Dendenislit","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8650796e48e17621c226e2bfd4ca39a4","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574943968736312","authorIdStr":"3574943968736312"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Diamond hands ","listText":"Diamond hands ","text":"Diamond hands","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/363060322","repostId":"1116870824","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1116870824","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1614051228,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1116870824?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-23 11:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Are we in a bubble?

And for Baidu, it marks a further effort to diversify its business well beyond advertising.\nBaidu’s Nasdaq-traded shares jumped more than 3.5% after hours. They climbed 6.67% on Tuesday.\nBaidu’s chip company would be a subsidiary, with the search giant likely to be the majority shareholder, the person said. Venture capital firms GGV and IDG Capital are involved in early stage discussions to invest in Baidu’s chip firm, the source added. Both firms have extensive investments in China.\nBaidu declined to comment when contacted by CNBC. IDG Capital was not immediately available for comment.Calls to GGV’s offices in Singapore, Shanghai and Beijing went unanswered.\nCurrently, Baidu has an in-house chip unit that has helped to develop its Kunlun semiconductors, designed to process huge amounts of data for artificial intelligence applications. But a standalone chip company is seen helping Baidu to better commercialize its technology, the source said.\nThe semiconductor business would aim to sell chips to customers in several industries including automakers, which are currently facing a global chip shortage.\nA standalone chip maker could also tie into other parts of Baidu’s businesses, such as its driverless car software.\nDiversification flurry\nBaidu’s move is part of push by the company to diversify its broader business — an effort which since September alone has seen the Chinese technology giant raise money for a biotech firm and a standalone electric vehicle company.\nAdvertising accounts for most of Baidu’s revenue currently, but other operations are contributing a growing percentage of sales. Ad-related revenue, which the company refers to in its earnings statements as online marketing services, accounted for around 80% of total revenue in 2018. That proportion fell to 71% in the third quarter of 2020, the most recent published results.\nBaidu’s semiconductor focus comes as the Chinese government tries to boost domestic independence around that critical technology — a trend that has accelerated during China’s trade war with the United States.\nChinese internet giant Tencent, the owner of messaging app WeChat,recently invested in an AI chip start-up.\nIn 2019, e-commerce company Alibaba launched its first chip to power artificial intelligence processes.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":226,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":389690519,"gmtCreate":1612759657531,"gmtModify":1704873868807,"author":{"id":"3574943968736312","authorId":"3574943968736312","name":"Dendenislit","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8650796e48e17621c226e2bfd4ca39a4","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574943968736312","authorIdStr":"3574943968736312"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Damn","listText":"Damn","text":"Damn","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/389690519","repostId":"1180268693","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1180268693","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1612755259,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1180268693?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-08 11:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Where Can Investors Hide as a Bubble Inflates?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1180268693","media":"Barrons","summary":"Let’s settle one thing up front. We’re clearly witnessing a speculative bubble in the financial mark","content":"<p>Let’s settle one thing up front. We’re clearly witnessing a speculative bubble in the financial markets. This time is no different. This mania will end the same way they all do: in tears.</p>\n<p>I started banging the gong in mid-2020 about the imminent risk of financial crisis stemming from three potential causes: a severe market correction, a deteriorating U.S. fiscal position from unsustainable growth in deficits and debt, and the inflation that was likely to follow.</p>\n<p>At that time, this viewpoint was greeted with a heavy dose of skepticism. Inflationary views were considered fringe. Respected economists were quick to point out the lack of demand for money relative to rapidly expanding supply, slack in the lockdown economy, and prevailing expectations for deflation based on recent history. Wall Street has little incentive to call a market bubble. Fees are made and bonuses paid when optimism, activity and volatility are high, not by predictions of impending doom. The euphorias of bubbles are like the best narcotics—stimulative and somewhat hypnotic. But the bigger the high, the worse the comedown.</p>\n<p>These contrarian views of inflation and market correction have now become mainstream. The warning signs of market mania are evident inBitcoin(up 300% in a year), the deluge ofSPAC IPOs(always a signal of a top), exorbitantP/E ratios, and rapidly rising real estateprices. These, along with retail-driven short squeezes and mini-bubbles, are symptoms of underlying conditions set in motion long ago by a flood of liquidity unleashed by the Federal Reserve. This time is different, however, in one important way. When this bubble bursts, the Fed can no longer prop up the market by lowering interest rates. Real rates, which were about 4% before the global financial crisis, are now below zero almost everywhere.</p>\n<p>The Biden administration is expected to unleash a blue wave of stimulus and other spending. This comes at a time when the revenue base is eroding, and the U.S. is no longer in a sound fiscal position. It is only a matter of time until government struggles to efficiently borrow against a gaping deficit and compounding debt. In 2020 alone, the U.S. government spent $3 trillion on pandemic relief while suffering a $2.1 trilliondecline in national incomefrom crippling lockdowns in our most economically important states, many of which continue today. By the end of fiscal 2020, total U.S. governmentdebtwas $27 trillion, up 20% from 2019 and triple the amount prior to the financial crisis. The Fed has absorbed a lot of this increase. Bond investors are rightly nervous.</p>\n<p>It is no surprise that the Fed has since adopted apro-inflation stance. An unspoken objective is to erode the topsoil from the mountain of U.S. debt at the expense of Americans. Inflation is a hidden tax that will eat away our purchasing power. Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff remind us in<i>This Time is Different</i>that throughout history, “the main device for defaulting on government obligations was… debasing the content of coinage. Modern currency presses are just a technologically advanced and more efficient approach to achieving the same end.” They note, “government debt is… often the unifying problem across the wide range of financial crises.”</p>\n<p>Prices are now rising in inflation bellwethers such as industrial metals, energy, and food commodities. The dollar haslost85% of its purchasing power since 1970. While a majority of this can be attributed to high inflation in the 1970s, even the supposedly deflationary 21st century has witnessed the erosion of one-third of the value of the dollar since 2000.</p>\n<p>Rising inflation expectations go a long way in explaining the vertiginous ascent of the equity markets in the face of a partially closed economy with muted growth. As lockdowns and travel restrictions ease, pent-up demand will pressure global supply chains and thus prices. We can expect to see a further acceleration of inflation as early as this spring as economies reopen.</p>\n<p>Where can one thrive, or at least hide, in this environment? U.S. equity markets are vastly overvalued by any historic measure, but bonds and cash are both danger zones in inflation. While conventional wisdom says to stay invested, it may be a good time to take some chips off of the table. Resist “FOMO,” the fear of missing out. If one has to stay invested, avoid the temptation of high-flying tech and growth equities, which are the most overvalued, in favor of diversifying among recently abandoned dividend-paying value stocks and emerging markets. Inflation-sensitive commodity (food, metals, and energy) producers should perform going forward. Gold has a millennia-long history of serving as a store of value and inflationary hedge, but pays no dividends along the way.</p>\n<p>Bitcoin similarly earns no yield. Cryptocurrencies have no intrinsic value, and, like fiat currencies, are worth whatever the market happens to believe. When the euphoria wears off, they may be hit hard. Besides, Bitcoin is a stacked game easily manipulated given the high concentration ofownershipby whales.</p>\n<p>Watch out for gearing in investments, whether in securities or real estate. If markets collapse, leverage will rapidly eat into the remaining value. Look for hidden exposure to risk (including inflation) in retirement accounts. Invest in hard assets not correlated to the markets. Stay liquid to exploit the inevitable correction.</p>\n<p>We need to increase the pressure on our elected officials to cut the pork and reopen our economies. Americans want to get back to work. So-called stimulus funding is not getting into the hands of those who need it most. Ultimately, it’s the real economy, not financial markets, that drive growth and prosperity. That requires local businesses open, workers re-engaged, and productive capital investments made.</p>\n<p>This is not doom and gloom. Since the problem is not a banking-sector credit crisis, and the underlying economy remains healthy (albeit weakened), postcorrection recovery may come more quickly and easily than following the financial crisis.

We’re clearly witnessing a speculative bubble in the financial markets. This time is no different. This mania will end the same way they all do: in tears.\nI started banging the gong in mid-2020 about the imminent risk of financial crisis stemming from three potential causes: a severe market correction, a deteriorating U.S. fiscal position from unsustainable growth in deficits and debt, and the inflation that was likely to follow.\nAt that time, this viewpoint was greeted with a heavy dose of skepticism. Inflationary views were considered fringe. Respected economists were quick to point out the lack of demand for money relative to rapidly expanding supply, slack in the lockdown economy, and prevailing expectations for deflation based on recent history. Wall Street has little incentive to call a market bubble. Fees are made and bonuses paid when optimism, activity and volatility are high, not by predictions of impending doom. The euphorias of bubbles are like the best narcotics—stimulative and somewhat hypnotic. But the bigger the high, the worse the comedown.\nThese contrarian views of inflation and market correction have now become mainstream. The warning signs of market mania are evident inBitcoin(up 300% in a year), the deluge ofSPAC IPOs(always a signal of a top), exorbitantP/E ratios, and rapidly rising real estateprices. These, along with retail-driven short squeezes and mini-bubbles, are symptoms of underlying conditions set in motion long ago by a flood of liquidity unleashed by the Federal Reserve. This time is different, however, in one important way. When this bubble bursts, the Fed can no longer prop up the market by lowering interest rates. Real rates, which were about 4% before the global financial crisis, are now below zero almost everywhere.\nThe Biden administration is expected to unleash a blue wave of stimulus and other spending. This comes at a time when the revenue base is eroding, and the U.S. is no longer in a sound fiscal position. It is only a matter of time until government struggles to efficiently borrow against a gaping deficit and compounding debt. In 2020 alone, the U.S. government spent $3 trillion on pandemic relief while suffering a $2.1 trilliondecline in national incomefrom crippling lockdowns in our most economically important states, many of which continue today. By the end of fiscal 2020, total U.S. governmentdebtwas $27 trillion, up 20% from 2019 and triple the amount prior to the financial crisis. The Fed has absorbed a lot of this increase. Bond investors are rightly nervous.\nIt is no surprise that the Fed has since adopted apro-inflation stance. An unspoken objective is to erode the topsoil from the mountain of U.S. debt at the expense of Americans. Inflation is a hidden tax that will eat away our purchasing power. Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff remind us inThis Time is Differentthat throughout history, “the main device for defaulting on government obligations was… debasing the content of coinage. Modern currency presses are just a technologically advanced and more efficient approach to achieving the same end.” They note, “government debt is… often the unifying problem across the wide range of financial crises.”\nPrices are now rising in inflation bellwethers such as industrial metals, energy, and food commodities. The dollar haslost85% of its purchasing power since 1970. While a majority of this can be attributed to high inflation in the 1970s, even the supposedly deflationary 21st century has witnessed the erosion of one-third of the value of the dollar since 2000.\nRising inflation expectations go a long way in explaining the vertiginous ascent of the equity markets in the face of a partially closed economy with muted growth. As lockdowns and travel restrictions ease, pent-up demand will pressure global supply chains and thus prices. We can expect to see a further acceleration of inflation as early as this spring as economies reopen.\nWhere can one thrive, or at least hide, in this environment? U.S. equity markets are vastly overvalued by any historic measure, but bonds and cash are both danger zones in inflation. While conventional wisdom says to stay invested, it may be a good time to take some chips off of the table. Resist “FOMO,” the fear of missing out. If one has to stay invested, avoid the temptation of high-flying tech and growth equities, which are the most overvalued, in favor of diversifying among recently abandoned dividend-paying value stocks and emerging markets. Inflation-sensitive commodity (food, metals, and energy) producers should perform going forward. Gold has a millennia-long history of serving as a store of value and inflationary hedge, but pays no dividends along the way.\nBitcoin similarly earns no yield. Cryptocurrencies have no intrinsic value, and, like fiat currencies, are worth whatever the market happens to believe. When the euphoria wears off, they may be hit hard. Besides, Bitcoin is a stacked game easily manipulated given the high concentration ofownershipby whales.\nWatch out for gearing in investments, whether in securities or real estate. If markets collapse, leverage will rapidly eat into the remaining value. Look for hidden exposure to risk (including inflation) in retirement accounts. Invest in hard assets not correlated to the markets. Stay liquid to exploit the inevitable correction.\nWe need to increase the pressure on our elected officials to cut the pork and reopen our economies. Americans want to get back to work. So-called stimulus funding is not getting into the hands of those who need it most. Ultimately, it’s the real economy, not financial markets, that drive growth and prosperity. That requires local businesses open, workers re-engaged, and productive capital investments made.\nThis is not doom and gloom. Since the problem is not a banking-sector credit crisis, and the underlying economy remains healthy (albeit weakened), postcorrection recovery may come more quickly and easily than following the financial crisis. While persistent inflation can create a host of problems, it usually supports fuller employment, and both producers and consumers will adapt to a changing price environment. In the meantime, it may be best to stay liquid and wait this one out. As spring follows even the darkest winter, the opportune time will come again.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":225,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":389874728,"gmtCreate":1612757352464,"gmtModify":1704873853833,"author":{"id":"3574943968736312","authorId":"3574943968736312","name":"Dendenislit","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8650796e48e17621c226e2bfd4ca39a4","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574943968736312","authorIdStr":"3574943968736312"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Okay!","listText":"Okay!","text":"Okay!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/389874728","repostId":"2108336760","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2108336760","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1612756871,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2108336760?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-08 12:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here's how the FAANG companies stack up this earnings season","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2108336760","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"The FAANG stocks dominate earnings season — and rightly so.\nWhat’s remarkable is that, despite their","content":"<p>The FAANG stocks dominate earnings season — and rightly so.</p>\n<p>What’s remarkable is that, despite their size, they usually post big increases in revenue and display pricing power. And that was still true in the fourth quarter and all of last year, even in the pandemic environment.</p>\n<p>The FAANG stocks are Facebook Inc.,Apple Inc.,Amazon.com Inc.,Netflix Inc.and Google holding company Alphabet Inc..Their combined market capitalization is $6.1 trillion, giving them an 18% weighting in the SPDR S&P 500 ETFSPY,+0.39%and a 33% weighting in the Invesco QQQ Trust,which track the S&P 500 Indexand the Nasdaq-100 Index,respectively.</p>\n<p>But the FAANG acronym seems a bit long in the tooth.

So the following tables include Microsoft, along with the FAANGs.</p>\n<p>All of these companies have reported their results for the fourth calendar quarter. All have fiscal years that match the calendar year except for Apple, whose fiscal year ends in September. So the following figures are all for the three months through December.</p>\n<p><b>Sales and gross margins</b></p>\n<p>Leaving the FAANG group in the same order, followed by Microsoft, here are growth figures for fourth-quarter sales and sales per share from a year earlier, along with a comparison of gross margins for both periods:</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n <tr>\n <th>COMPANY</th>\n <th>TICKER</th>\n <th>INCREASE IN SALES</th>\n <th>INCREASE IN SALES PER SHARE</th>\n <th>GROSS MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020</th>\n <th>GROSS MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019</th>\n </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n <tr>\n <td>FACEBOOK INC.

If sales per share grow faster than sales, it means the average share count has declined — share buybacks have outweighed the issuance of new shares to raise money (hardly likely for this group) or the shoveling of new shares to executives as part of compensation packages. A rising share count means shareholders’ ownership positions are being diluted. This lowers earnings per share and can be a drag on returns if it continues in a sustained way over long periods.</p>\n<p>A company’s gross margin is its sales, less the cost of goods sold, divided by sales. It doesn’t reflect overhead expenses, but it does factor in discounting, coupons, commissions or other selling expenses. If a company’s sales are expanding but its gross margin is contracting, it may be a sign that competition is becoming more difficult. If the gross margin is expanding while sales are growing, it’s a healthy sign of demand for products and services. Any one quarter or any one pandemic can lead to shifts in gross margins, but it is still a useful trend to follow.</p>\n<p>All the above sales results are fantastic. Gross margins may have gone either way, but they also show the advantage of certain business models. Facebook’s gross margin is very impressive, even if it has narrowed a bit. Microsoft’s gross margin expanded and that high number reflects the success of its continued movement toward subscription distribution.</p>\n<p><b>Operating margins</b></p>\n<p>The following operating margins are earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) divided by sales. Most investors are aware that GAAP earnings-per-share figures can be very much distorted by one-time items. The operating margins provide a measure of earnings from a company’s core business.</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n <tr>\n <th>COMPANY</th>\n <th>TICKER</th>\n <th>OPERATING MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020</th>\n <th>OPERATING MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019</th>\n </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n <tr>\n <td>FACEBOOK INC.

This is likely to keep its profits and operating margins low. But as you can seehere, investors have gained handsomely from CEO Jeff Bezos’ long-term strategy.</p>\n<p><b>EPS and net income margins</b></p>\n<p>A company’s net income margin is its profit divided by revenue. In a market that greatly values sales growth (or subscriber growth), earnings per share may be one of the least important figures to look at each earnings season. Not only are EPS affected by myriad one-time items, the entire Wall Street apparatus is designed to set up “earnings beats” quarter after quarter to drive positive headlines. Even if a company’s overall business is in decline, with earnings and sales sliding, it is very likely to report EPS and sales that are higher than the consensus estimate among analysts.</p>\n<p>With that out of the way, here are comparisons of quarterly earnings and net income margins for the group:</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n <tr>\n <th>COMPANY</th>\n <th>TICKER</th>\n <th>EPS - CALENDAR Q4, 2020</th>\n <th>EPS - CALENDAR Q4, 2019</th>\n <th>NET INCOME MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020</th>\n <th>NET INCOME MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019</th>\n </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n <tr>\n <td>FACEBOOK INC.

And that was still true in the fourth quarter and all of last year, even in the pandemic environment.\nThe FAANG stocks are Facebook Inc.,Apple Inc.,Amazon.com Inc.,Netflix Inc.and Google holding company Alphabet Inc..Their combined market capitalization is $6.1 trillion, giving them an 18% weighting in the SPDR S&P 500 ETFSPY,+0.39%and a 33% weighting in the Invesco QQQ Trust,which track the S&P 500 Indexand the Nasdaq-100 Index,respectively.\nBut the FAANG acronym seems a bit long in the tooth. Microsoft Corp.’sMSFT,+0.08%market cap is $1.8 trillion, making it second in size among the S&P 500 after Apple. So the following tables include Microsoft, along with the FAANGs.\nAll of these companies have reported their results for the fourth calendar quarter. All have fiscal years that match the calendar year except for Apple, whose fiscal year ends in September. So the following figures are all for the three months through December.\nSales and gross margins\nLeaving the FAANG group in the same order, followed by Microsoft, here are growth figures for fourth-quarter sales and sales per share from a year earlier, along with a comparison of gross margins for both periods:\n\n\n\nCOMPANY\nTICKER\nINCREASE IN SALES\nINCREASE IN SALES PER SHARE\nGROSS MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020\nGROSS MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019\n\n\n\n\nFACEBOOK INC. CLASS A\nFB\n33.2%\n32.3%\n81.44%\n83.44%\n\n\nApple Inc.\nAAPL\n21.6%\n26.6%\n40.05%\n38.10%\n\n\nAmazon.com Inc.\nAMZN\n43.6%\n41.4%\n36.85%\n38.27%\n\n\nAlphabet Inc. Class C\nGOOG\n23.7%\n25.9%\n54.16%\n54.29%\n\n\nNetflix Inc.\nNFLX\n21.5%\n20.5%\n37.31%\n36.61%\n\n\nMicrosoft Corp.\nMSFT\n16.7%\n17.9%\n67.05%\n66.51%\n\n\n\nFactSet\nSales per share numbers are included in addition to raw sales, because the per-share numbers point to increases or reductions in share counts. If sales per share grow faster than sales, it means the average share count has declined — share buybacks have outweighed the issuance of new shares to raise money (hardly likely for this group) or the shoveling of new shares to executives as part of compensation packages. A rising share count means shareholders’ ownership positions are being diluted. This lowers earnings per share and can be a drag on returns if it continues in a sustained way over long periods.\nA company’s gross margin is its sales, less the cost of goods sold, divided by sales. It doesn’t reflect overhead expenses, but it does factor in discounting, coupons, commissions or other selling expenses. If a company’s sales are expanding but its gross margin is contracting, it may be a sign that competition is becoming more difficult. If the gross margin is expanding while sales are growing, it’s a healthy sign of demand for products and services. Any one quarter or any one pandemic can lead to shifts in gross margins, but it is still a useful trend to follow.\nAll the above sales results are fantastic. Gross margins may have gone either way, but they also show the advantage of certain business models. Facebook’s gross margin is very impressive, even if it has narrowed a bit. Microsoft’s gross margin expanded and that high number reflects the success of its continued movement toward subscription distribution.\nOperating margins\nThe following operating margins are earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) divided by sales. Most investors are aware that GAAP earnings-per-share figures can be very much distorted by one-time items. The operating margins provide a measure of earnings from a company’s core business.\n\n\n\nCOMPANY\nTICKER\nOPERATING MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020\nOPERATING MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019\n\n\n\n\nFACEBOOK INC.

This is likely to keep its profits and operating margins low. But as you can seehere, investors have gained handsomely from CEO Jeff Bezos’ long-term strategy.\nEPS and net income margins\nA company’s net income margin is its profit divided by revenue. In a market that greatly values sales growth (or subscriber growth), earnings per share may be one of the least important figures to look at each earnings season. Not only are EPS affected by myriad one-time items, the entire Wall Street apparatus is designed to set up “earnings beats” quarter after quarter to drive positive headlines. Even if a company’s overall business is in decline, with earnings and sales sliding, it is very likely to report EPS and sales that are higher than the consensus estimate among analysts.\nWith that out of the way, here are comparisons of quarterly earnings and net income margins for the group:\n\n\n\nCOMPANY\nTICKER\nEPS - CALENDAR Q4, 2020\nEPS - CALENDAR Q4, 2019\nNET INCOME MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2020\nNET INCOME MARGIN - CALENDAR Q4, 2019\n\n\n\n\nFACEBOOK INC.

It is money that can be deployed for any corporate purpose, including expansion, share repurchases or dividends. It is incredibly important to the FAANGs and Microsoft, to drive new product and service development.\nHere are comparisons of quarter free cash flow per share for the group:\n\n\n\nCOMPANY\nTICKER\nFREE CASH FLOW PER SHARE - CALENDAR Q4, 2020\nFREE CASH FLOW PER SHARE - CALENDAR Q4, 2019\n\n\n\n\nFACEBOOK INC.

Thinknum's plans were mentioned in a Barrron's article over the weekend . \n</p>\n<p>\n Spiwak said that he envisions clients that use the services of companies like Thinknum as a way to not only profit from chatter on social-media platforms but also as a form of crisis management, as klatches of individual investors gather on platforms to coalesce around investing ideas. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"This is very new and we see it as a crisis-management purchase, as an insurance policy, and a way to increase returns and minimize losses,\" for clients he said. \n</p>\n<p>\n Thinknum's service, which kicked off last week, is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the most expensive that it offers to clients, costing just under $25,000 a year, to track the number of times New York Stock Exchange-listed companies, and those on the Nasdaq, are called out on sites like r/wallstreetbets or other Reddit sub-reddits. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"Demand has been massive -- we've received over 100 inbound requests from hedge funds in the last few days,\" wrote the Thinknum marketing director. \n</p>\n<p>\n Thus far the interest in these pricey products come from fund managers but the company says it also is fielding inquiries from institutional investors looking for \"an insurance policy to protect themselves from Reddit.\" \n</p>\n<p>\n The moves by the alternative data company come as videogame retailer GameStop and other companies, like movie chain AMC Entertainment and headphone maker Koss Corp. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/KOSS\">$(KOSS)$</a>, have experienced a parabolic run-up in share values over a short period as investors congregating on sites like Reddit's r/wallstreetbets, poured millions into heavily shorted companies to spark a rally in those shares. \n</p>\n<p>\n The recent advance in heavily shorted shares targeted by the army of individual investors appeared to be causing pain for hedge funds. \n</p>\n<p>\n Melvin Capital Management, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the hedge funds seen at the center of the kerfuffle over GameStop, lost 53% on its investments in January, The Wall Street Journal wrote , citing people familiar. WSJ also said that another hedge fund Maplelane Capital ended January with a roughly 45% loss. \n</p>\n<p>\n Meanwhile, Andrew Left, founder of Citron Research, last Friday, a famed short seller, altered his strategy, saying that his firm would no longer be publishing short selling reports. Left was seen drawing the ire of individual investors for his negative views on GameStop -- a bricks-and-mortar retailer that he says was worth only around $20 in the midst of a growing shift of digital videogame sales. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"Young people want to buy stocks. That's the zeitgeist,\" said Left about his decision to exit the business of identifying companies that he thinks are overvalued and announcing publicly that he 's betting its shares will sink. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"They don't want to short stocks, so I'm going to help them buy stocks,\" Left said of his focus on long investing. \n</p>\n<p>\n Other companies, including SimilarWeb are also trying to promote tools for investors to track investing and discussions on popular social-media sites and on some of popular trading platforms. \n</p>\n<p>\n SimilarWeb says that it can track searches for stock ticker symbols among users of the mobile app and desktop users on Robinhood Markets platform, for example. SimilarWeb says that search activity can be indicative of actual trading and can help clients identify trends early, according to Ed Lavery, director of investor solutions at SimilarWeb. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"Demand for data on retail trading platforms has surged,\" Lavery told MarketWatch in a phone interview Monday afternoon. \n</p>\n<p>\n Lavery said the estimated data on search that SimilarWeb offers has been something that the company has been tracking for years but had only been solicited by clients in recent days. He said Similar has similar data on Charles Schwab <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SCHW\">$(SCHW)$</a> and E-Trade Financial but Robinhood has drawn the most interest among its users. \n</p>\n<p>\n \" Robinhood as a platform is making more noise,\" he said. \n</p>\n<p>\n SESAMm, which bills itself as one of the leading providers of analytics and artificial intelligence for investment professionals, also had either developed or was working on services that could help identify social-media trends, said Spiwak. \n</p>\n<p>\n SESAMm, which recently scored some 7.5 million in venture-capital funding from NewAlpha Asset Management and global investment firm The Carlyle Group, didn't immediately return an email for comment. \n</p>\n<p>\n To be sure, other services attempt to offer such insights on investing trends on social media free. Those include poolsapp . \n</p>\n<p>\n Meanwhile, the liquidation of profitable long positions by hedge funds and other investors who needed cash to cover losses on losing short positions has been blamed for the Dow Jones Industrial Average , the S&P 500 index and the Nasdaq Composite Index registering their worst weekly losses since October last Friday. \n</p>\n<p>\n Markets were attempting to claw back from those losses early Monday, kicking off what is likely to be a turbulent February. \n</p>\n<p>\n -Mark DeCambre;

SimilarWeb says that search activity can be indicative of actual trading and can help clients identify trends early, according to Ed Lavery, director of investor solutions at SimilarWeb. \n</p>\n<p>\n \"Demand for data on retail trading platforms has surged,\" Lavery told MarketWatch in a phone interview Monday afternoon. \n</p>\n<p>\n Lavery said the estimated data on search that SimilarWeb offers has been something that the company has been tracking for years but had only been solicited by clients in recent days. He said Similar has similar data on Charles Schwab <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SCHW\">$(SCHW)$</a> and E-Trade Financial but Robinhood has drawn the most interest among its users. \n</p>\n<p>\n \" Robinhood as a platform is making more noise,\" he said. \n</p>\n<p>\n SESAMm, which bills itself as one of the leading providers of analytics and artificial intelligence for investment professionals, also had either developed or was working on services that could help identify social-media trends, said Spiwak. \n</p>\n<p>\n SESAMm, which recently scored some 7.5 million in venture-capital funding from NewAlpha Asset Management and global investment firm The Carlyle Group, didn't immediately return an email for comment. \n</p>\n<p>\n To be sure, other services attempt to offer such insights on investing trends on social media free.
