During the period from January to end of March, Amazon generate group revenues of $127.4 billion, up 9% YoY as compared to $116.4 billion in first quarter 2022, and topping analyst consensus estimates by close to $2.75 billion. Excluding the unfavorable impact of approximately $2.4 billion as a consequence of foreign exchange rate fluctuations, net sales would have increased by ~11% YoY.</p><p>With regards to profitability, Amazon&#39;s operating income, which includes about $500 million of severance costs, came in at about $4.8 billion, versus $3.7 billion for the same period one year prior (up about 30% YoY); net income came in at $3.2 billion ($0.31/share), beating estimates by ~$800 million.</p><p>According to management commentary provided in the earnings call, Amazon executive have seen a stabilization in international markets, particularly in Europe, where inflation pressures have eased and the economy has started to grow again. In the U.S., however, both e-commerce and AWS customers are increasingly focusing on attractive value-for-price opportunities, pressuring profit margins. With regards to potential cost efficiency, and in addition to the layoffs already announced, Amazon highlighted increased profitability anchored on the introduction of a decentralized fulfillment model, which has eight interconnected regions across the U.S., resulting in faster and more cost-effective delivery services for customers.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d81a3d563fcde47c8009e0b9eac2d074\" alt=\"AMZN Q1 2023 reporting\" title=\"AMZN Q1 2023 reporting\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"318\"/><span>AMZN Q1 2023 reporting</span></p><p>Zooming into Amazon&#39;s operating segments, the North America segment increased sales by about 11% YoY, to $76.9 billion.

Likewise, also AWS segment operating income disappointed at $5.1 billion (mid-20% operating margin), compared to $6.5 billion in Q1 2022 (mid-30% operating margin). In the call with analysts, Amazon management highlighted that the company has been &#39;supporting&#39; AWS customers in managing costs (which is fancy expression for Amazon saying that AWS offered discounts and incentives).</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/23a980e9089edee3d7ec5a1871973452\" alt=\"AMZN Q1 2023 reporting\" title=\"AMZN Q1 2023 reporting\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"280\"/><span>AMZN Q1 2023 reporting</span></p><h2>Not a growth company&#39;s typical guidance</h2><p>Amazon has provided guidance for the second quarter of 2023, which, although solid, clearly lacks growth or profitability expansion that a growth company should bring to the table. Amazon&#39;s group net sales are expected to grow between 5% and 10% YoY only, to an estimated range of approximately $127 billion to $133 billion (with Q2 mid-point guidance projecting a flat quarter vs Q1). Operating income for the March quarter is expected to be somewhere between $2.0 billion and $5.5 billion, potentially losing profitability as compared to the $3.3 billion reported in the second quarter of 2022 and the $4.8 billion reported in Q1 2023.</p><p>Most disappointing are Amazon&#39;s projections with regards to the AWS segment, where growth is expected to drop further, to 11% YoY. Amazon&#39;s Brian Olsavsky commented that AWS &#39;customers of all sizes in all industries&#39; are trying to save costs, and &#39;these optimizations continuing into the second quarter&#39; could likely pressure both growth and profitability margins by 500 basis points.</p><h2>Valuation Update: Raise TP</h2><p>Amazon&#39;s slowing growth is well noted; but so is the conglomerates ambition to cut costs across units. Reflecting on Amazon&#39;s incremental shift towards a more reasonable growth strategy that is also anchored on profitability considerations, I raise my EPS expectations for AMZN through 2025: I now estimate that Amazon&#39;s EPS in 2023 will likely expand to somewhere between $2.2 and $2.7. Likewise, I also raise my EPS expectations for 2024 and 2025, to $3.15 and $3.7, respectively.</p><p>I continue to anchor on a 4.5% terminal growth rate (still giving Amazon a growth premium versus the broader economy), as well as an 8.75% cost of equity (risk discount versus the market)</p><p>Given the EPS updates as highlighted below, I now calculate a fair implied share price for Amazon of equal to $76.68, versus $70.65 previously.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/624eabaee60682007f705165531c6024\" alt=\"Author&#39;s EPS Estimates and Calculations\" title=\"Author&#39;s EPS Estimates and Calculations\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"213\"/><span>Author&#39;s EPS Estimates and Calculations</span></p><p>Below is also the updated sensitivity table.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec9dafb2ce75c90e839692a85aeeedcc\" alt=\"Author&#39;s EPS Estimates and Calculations\" title=\"Author&#39;s EPS Estimates and Calculations\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"175\"/><span>Author&#39;s EPS Estimates and Calculations</span></p><h2>Risks</h2><p>As a counter-thesis against my bearish arguments, I would like to highlight what I have written before:</p><blockquote>There are two risks to point out. First, betting against Amazon is hardly ever a smart move - or at least it has not been in the past. Despite the short-term headwinds Amazon remains one of the best managed companies in the world, and the long-term outlook for the e-commerce giant remains bright. Second, investors should consider that Amazon frequently misses earnings estimates (less so revenues) and the market does not very much care. Arguably, Amazon has taught its investors to look past short-term accounting and profitability targets. And accordingly, the (expected) earnings miss may fail to materialize a stock sell-off.</blockquote><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Amazon reported better than expected Q1 2023 estimates, but clearly missed investors&#39; expectations for Q2, especially with regards to AWS topline and profitability. Accordingly, the Amazon equity story continues to be a difficult pitch, with the narrative being pressured by multiple headwinds, most notably: sharply slowing growth across business segments, lack of profitability on group level, and a still clouded macroeconomic outlook.</p><p>Personally, I estimate that Amazon stock should be priced at approximately $76.68/ share. I base my argument on a residual earnings framework, which is anchored on updated EPS estimates, an 8.75% cost of equity and a 4.5% terminal growth rate. Notably, as compared to my prior valuation, I have materially raised EPS expectations through 2025. But Amazon still looks overvalued, compared to reasonable growth and profitability estimates. Reiterate &#39;Sell&#39; rating.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Amazon: Risks Keep Accumulating</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nAmazon: Risks Keep Accumulating\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-05-01 17:27 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4598347-amazon-stock-better-than-expected-q1-earnings-risks-accumulating-reiterate-sell><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Amazon posted a solid Q1 performance that initially prompted the stock to jump as much as 12% in afterhours trading.

Operating income was $0.9 billion (finally green numbers), versus an operating loss of $1.6 billion for the same period in 2022.AMZN Q1 2023 reportingThe International segment increased sales by only 1% YoY, to $ 29.1 billion, while the segment's operating loss only narrowed slightly, to a loss of 1.3 billion in the first quarter 2023.AMZN Q1 2023 reportingGrowth for the AWS segment slowed sharply, as sales increased by only 16% YoY, to $21.4 billion. Likewise, also AWS segment operating income disappointed at $5.1 billion (mid-20% operating margin), compared to $6.5 billion in Q1 2022 (mid-30% operating margin). In the call with analysts, Amazon management highlighted that the company has been 'supporting' AWS customers in managing costs (which is fancy expression for Amazon saying that AWS offered discounts and incentives).AMZN Q1 2023 reportingNot a growth company's typical guidanceAmazon has provided guidance for the second quarter of 2023, which, although solid, clearly lacks growth or profitability expansion that a growth company should bring to the table. Amazon's group net sales are expected to grow between 5% and 10% YoY only, to an estimated range of approximately $127 billion to $133 billion (with Q2 mid-point guidance projecting a flat quarter vs Q1). Operating income for the March quarter is expected to be somewhere between $2.0 billion and $5.5 billion, potentially losing profitability as compared to the $3.3 billion reported in the second quarter of 2022 and the $4.8 billion reported in Q1 2023.Most disappointing are Amazon's projections with regards to the AWS segment, where growth is expected to drop further, to 11% YoY. Amazon's Brian Olsavsky commented that AWS 'customers of all sizes in all industries' are trying to save costs, and 'these optimizations continuing into the second quarter' could likely pressure both growth and profitability margins by 500 basis points.Valuation Update: Raise TPAmazon's slowing growth is well noted; but so is the conglomerates ambition to cut costs across units. Reflecting on Amazon's incremental shift towards a more reasonable growth strategy that is also anchored on profitability considerations, I raise my EPS expectations for AMZN through 2025: I now estimate that Amazon's EPS in 2023 will likely expand to somewhere between $2.2 and $2.7. Likewise, I also raise my EPS expectations for 2024 and 2025, to $3.15 and $3.7, respectively.I continue to anchor on a 4.5% terminal growth rate (still giving Amazon a growth premium versus the broader economy), as well as an 8.75% cost of equity (risk discount versus the market)Given the EPS updates as highlighted below, I now calculate a fair implied share price for Amazon of equal to $76.68, versus $70.65 previously.Author's EPS Estimates and CalculationsBelow is also the updated sensitivity table.Author's EPS Estimates and CalculationsRisksAs a counter-thesis against my bearish arguments, I would like to highlight what I have written before:There are two risks to point out. First, betting against Amazon is hardly ever a smart move - or at least it has not been in the past. Despite the short-term headwinds Amazon remains one of the best managed companies in the world, and the long-term outlook for the e-commerce giant remains bright. Second, investors should consider that Amazon frequently misses earnings estimates (less so revenues) and the market does not very much care. Arguably, Amazon has taught its investors to look past short-term accounting and profitability targets. And accordingly, the (expected) earnings miss may fail to materialize a stock sell-off.ConclusionAmazon reported better than expected Q1 2023 estimates, but clearly missed investors' expectations for Q2, especially with regards to AWS topline and profitability. Accordingly, the Amazon equity story continues to be a difficult pitch, with the narrative being pressured by multiple headwinds, most notably: sharply slowing growth across business segments, lack of profitability on group level, and a still clouded macroeconomic outlook.Personally, I estimate that Amazon stock should be priced at approximately $76.68/ share. I base my argument on a residual earnings framework, which is anchored on updated EPS estimates, an 8.75% cost of equity and a 4.5% terminal growth rate. Notably, as compared to my prior valuation, I have materially raised EPS expectations through 2025. But Amazon still looks overvalued, compared to reasonable growth and profitability estimates. Reiterate 'Sell' rating.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":7,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9947867792,"gmtCreate":1682940618817,"gmtModify":1682940622462,"author":{"id":"3575544575320394","authorId":"3575544575320394","name":"来人","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0af89587decbb8a1d3e1596adc29cb98","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok&nbsp;","listText":"Ok&nbsp;","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/m/post/9947867792","repostId":"2332464537","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2332464537","pubTimestamp":1682935109,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2332464537?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-05-01 17:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Meta Platforms: Rally Still Has Legs","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2332464537","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"After this huge rally, investors should probably expect a near-term pause, but ultimately the stock still has legs.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Considering <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a> once traded near $400, the stock rallying to $240 following better than expected quarterly results is just a continuation of the overdue rebound.

In recent days, however, Tesla&#39;s shares have seen new selling pressure related to Tesla&#39;s Q1&#39;23 earnings release and Elon Musk&#39;s comments about future EV price cuts. These cuts could lead to long term market share gains, but they also pose a short term risk of resulting in smaller operating income margins... which continued to contract in Q1&#39;23. I believe new market fears about Tesla offer a great new entry into Tesla&#39;s shares, at a much more attractive valuation!</p><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Tesla misses on Q1&#39;23 earnings</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tesla reported $0.85 per-share in adjusted EPS for the first-quarter, meeting expectations, but the EV company missed on the top line. The earnings release resulted in a 10% share price drop, one that I am buying.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9c4bde5788aad388971ca850851ea421\" alt=\"Source: Tesla\" title=\"Source: Tesla\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"252\"/><span>Source: Tesla</span></p><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Operating margins may further erode if Tesla continues to lower prices to drive demand and revenue growth</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">One major problem that Tesla is currently dealing with is that the EV company is aggressively lowering product prices in order to spur demand which is a risky strategy that may backfire if other EV manufacturers take the bait and also lower EV prices aggressively. Elon Musk recently made comments about Tesla&#39;s pricing strategy, indicating that the company may further lower prices in order to grow revenues.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Revenue growth is extremely important for Tesla because the company is seen chiefly as a growth stock. Tesla&#39;s revenue growth has moderated since reaching a peak during the pandemic: total revenues hit $23.3B in Q1&#39;23, showing just about 24% growth.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e5330f8ddfefa09619e74582f829286f\" alt=\"Data by YCharts\" title=\"Data by YCharts\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tesla is profitable and an industry-leader and can afford to forgo short term profitability. The EV company reported $2.5B in net income in the first-quarter, showing a 24% decline year over year. However, due to Tesla&#39;s aggressive pricing strategy, which saw the 6th round of recent price cuts just before earnings, could potential further weigh on the EV company&#39;s short term profitability outlook. Tesla lowered the prices for the Model Y by 6% and for the Model 3 by 5%.

However, the 10% share price drop on Thursday seems exaggerated to me and I have bought the drop again at ~$165, effectively restarting a new position in the EV company. I believe the valuation is attractively chiefly because of Tesla&#39;s aggressive focus to grow revenues which may grow even faster than what the current consensus indicates.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Analysts currently estimate that Tesla could generate revenues of $100.4B in FY 2023 and $131.0B in FY 2024, implying a year over year growth rate of 30%. In FY 2023, Tesla is expected to grow revenues 23%, so analysts expect an acceleration of growth to occur which relates to the continual scaling of Tesla&#39;s Model 3 and Y production, but also to the beginning ramp of the Cybertruck which is expected to hit the market in the middle of FY 2023. However, with Tesla pursuing an aggressive pricing strategy, revenue may grow even more rapidly than the 30% growth rate implied by analysts&#39; top line estimates.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/45267019e1945f4058d269c50e8d760a\" alt=\"Data by YCharts\" title=\"Data by YCharts\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Based off of current top line estimates, Tesla is valued at 4.0X FY 2024 revenues, but investors currently get a 39% discount to the company&#39;s 1-year average P/S ratio.

This could be a risky strategy for the company, especially if other EV manufacturers follow suit and lower their product prices, which, in the worst-case, could lead to an escalating price war in the EV segment where margins are already low. Tesla is the leading global EV brand, but weaker margins are unlikely to win the cheers of investors and may ultimately hurt Tesla&#39;s profitability.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Final thoughts</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">I believe investors should see last week&#39;s 10% price correction as a strong buying opportunity now that investors have become more fearful again. While it is true that Tesla is going to pay for stronger revenue growth with lower profits in the short term, it could be a successful strategy to drive electric vehicle demand and therefore lead to market share gains. Since Tesla, as opposed to many other start-ups in the EV industry, is already profitable, the company can afford an aggressive pricing strategy. Since shares of Tesla once again dropped and fear has affected the market again, I believe this 10% sell-off is a new opportunity to capitalize on this fear. The time for me to sell shares of Tesla, again, will be when the market turns super bullish on the EV company and investors are euphoric.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Tesla: Buy The Fear, Sell The Hype, Rinse And Repeat</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nTesla: Buy The Fear, Sell The Hype, Rinse And Repeat\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-04-24 23:22 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4595961-tesla-buy-fear-sell-hype-rinse-repeat><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryTesla's earnings release for Q1'23 resulted in a 10% share price drop.After selling out of Tesla in February, I am rebuying Tesla at a much more attractive valuation.Tesla is set to continue to...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4595961-tesla-buy-fear-sell-hype-rinse-repeat\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"TSLA":"特斯拉"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4595961-tesla-buy-fear-sell-hype-rinse-repeat","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1156592135","content_text":"SummaryTesla's earnings release for Q1'23 resulted in a 10% share price drop.After selling out of Tesla in February, I am rebuying Tesla at a much more attractive valuation.Tesla is set to continue to dominate the EV market due to its large size and scale, but short-term profitability risks have risen.Tesla Shanghai GigafactoryAfter Tesla's valuation soared more than 100% between January 2023 and February 2023, I recommended investors to sell the EV company's shares as there was a clear risk of an overheating stock price rally -- Tesla: Take Profits When Others Are Greedy. In recent days, however, Tesla's shares have seen new selling pressure related to Tesla's Q1'23 earnings release and Elon Musk's comments about future EV price cuts. These cuts could lead to long term market share gains, but they also pose a short term risk of resulting in smaller operating income margins... which continued to contract in Q1'23. I believe new market fears about Tesla offer a great new entry into Tesla's shares, at a much more attractive valuation!Tesla misses on Q1'23 earningsTesla reported $0.85 per-share in adjusted EPS for the first-quarter, meeting expectations, but the EV company missed on the top line. The earnings release resulted in a 10% share price drop, one that I am buying.Source: TeslaOperating margins may further erode if Tesla continues to lower prices to drive demand and revenue growthOne major problem that Tesla is currently dealing with is that the EV company is aggressively lowering product prices in order to spur demand which is a risky strategy that may backfire if other EV manufacturers take the bait and also lower EV prices aggressively. Elon Musk recently made comments about Tesla's pricing strategy, indicating that the company may further lower prices in order to grow revenues.Revenue growth is extremely important for Tesla because the company is seen chiefly as a growth stock. Tesla's revenue growth has moderated since reaching a peak during the pandemic: total revenues hit $23.3B in Q1'23, showing just about 24% growth.Data by YChartsTesla is profitable and an industry-leader and can afford to forgo short term profitability. The EV company reported $2.5B in net income in the first-quarter, showing a 24% decline year over year. However, due to Tesla's aggressive pricing strategy, which saw the 6th round of recent price cuts just before earnings, could potential further weigh on the EV company's short term profitability outlook. Tesla lowered the prices for the Model Y by 6% and for the Model 3 by 5%. Tesla's margins are also at risk of further eroding if Tesla follows through with this strategy: the company's GAAP gross margin slumped from 29.1% in the year-earlier period to 19.3% in Q1'23, showing a decline of nearly 10 PP.Tesla's operating margins fell almost 8 PP year over year to 11.4% and I do see elevated margin risks for Tesla if Elon Musk continues to push for price cuts.Source: TeslaTesla's operating margins are still solid when compared to the broader auto sector.

The Nasdaq declined 0.42%, while the S&P edged down 0.1%.Roughly 76% of S&P 500 companies that have reported earnings through Friday beat analyst earnings estimates, according to FactSet data. However, first-quarter earnings for S&P 500 companies are estimated to decline an overall 5.2%, per Refinitiv. Wall Street is looking ahead toward mega-cap tech earnings results this week in what will mark the halfway point of earnings season. Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon and Meta are among the high-interest names scheduled to announce their results for the first quarter.Investors are also keeping a close eye out on new economic data that will provide insight into whether inflation is cooling, or if the Federal Reserve will announce another rate hike at its next meeting in early May. GDP numbers for the first quarter, as well as April’s consumer sentiment data will be released among a flurry of other economic indicators. “Part of the reason why we’re so focused on the economic data is we think the investor narrative is still around the Fed and interest rates. And we think the economic reports over the next seven to 10 days are going to be the really big driver of ultimately what the Fed is going to do,” said Greg Bassuk, CEO of AXS Investments. “We’re expecting the data, frankly, to be mixed,” Bassuk added. “And we think that’s going to continue to cause uncertainty and continued volatility.”Traders will also watch out for the Dallas Fed’s Manufacturing survey results to gauge the state of the state’s factory activity.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":13,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9947012117,"gmtCreate":1682345235739,"gmtModify":1682345239834,"author":{"id":"3575544575320394","authorId":"3575544575320394","name":"来人","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0af89587decbb8a1d3e1596adc29cb98","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/m/post/9947012117","repostId":"2329856591","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2329856591","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1682342052,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2329856591?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-04-24 21:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Walt Disney To Begin Second Wave Of Layoffs, Cutting Several Thousand Jobs","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2329856591","media":"Reuters","summary":"(Reuters) - Walt Disney Co will begin a second wave of layoffs on Monday, as it works toward elimina","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>(Reuters) - Walt Disney Co will begin a second wave of layoffs on Monday, as it works toward eliminating 7,000 jobs to help save $5.5 billion in costs, according to sources familiar with the matter.</p><p>The company is expected to cut &#34;several thousand&#34; jobs in layoffs that begin Monday and continue through Thursday.

Hedge funds seem to agree.Leveraged investors boosted their net shorts on 10-year Treasury futures to a record 1.29 million contracts as of April 18, data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission show. It was the fifth straight week that net shorts had increased.“Hedge funds may be thinking that inflation will be stickier than many in the market are currently expecting,” said Damien McColough, head of fixed-income research at Westpac Banking Corp. in Sydney. “On the face of it, this big short doesn’t reflect the view that there will be a near-term recession.”Treasury yields have been whipsawed in recent weeks as traders engage in a tug-of-war with the Fed amid a growing debate about when policymakers will start cutting rates. Hedge funds will be vindicated if the US central bank prevails in its view that borrowing costs need to keep marching higher.Leveraged funds have a checkered track record in Treasuries. Yields declined in 2019 after the previous record short. When leveraged longs hit a multi-year high in 2021, yields did move modestly lower soon after before surging as the Fed headed toward rate hikes.The 10-year Treasury yield has advanced nine basis points this month to 3.56%, unwinding some of March’s 45-basis-point drop.

If the net is negative, there is more bearish pressure.Top 10 bullish stocks: SQ; NFLX; PG; MRNA; BBBY; MSFT; CVNA; SABR; QCOM; NVDATop 10 bearish stocks: BABA; BAC; F; AAL; NIO; SNAP; GOOGL; LAZR; CG; ENVXSource: Market ChameleonSource: Market ChameleonIf you are interested in options and you want to:Share experiences and ideas on options trading.Read options-related market updates/insights.Learn more about options trading if you are a beginner in this field.Please click to join Tiger Options Club","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":0,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9944545910,"gmtCreate":1681965704031,"gmtModify":1681965707597,"author":{"id":"3575544575320394","authorId":"3575544575320394","name":"来人","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0af89587decbb8a1d3e1596adc29cb98","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/m/post/9944545910","repostId":"1196482326","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1196482326","pubTimestamp":1681948868,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1196482326?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-04-20 08:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla: That's Just The Beginning Of The Challenges","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1196482326","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryTesla reported weak Q1 results.Margins, profits, and cash flows are moving in the wrong direc","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Summary</h2><ul><li><p>Tesla reported weak Q1 results.</p></li><li><p>Margins, profits, and cash flows are moving in the wrong direction.</p></li><li><p>Q2 could be worse due to further price cuts.</p></li><li><p>The valuation remains high.</p></li></ul><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Article Thesis</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) has reported quarterly results that are mostly seen as negative, as margins and earnings dropped considerably, while free cash generation was weak as well due to inventory piling up.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">But things could get worse over the coming quarters as further price reductions for Tesla&#39;s vehicles make it likely that margins will be even weaker during the second quarter, and possibly beyond.

Shares are down 6% in after-hours trading, following a price decline during regular trading hours. But when we delve into the details, things look even worse, I believe.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Many Things Are Moving In The Wrong Direction</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tesla is one of the most expensive automobile companies based on traditional valuation metrics such as price to earnings, price to sales, or price to book value. In the past, this was justified by Tesla&#39;s strong performance when it comes to revenue growth, expanding margins, growing free cash generation, and exploding profits. One could argue that even those facts do not justify a 50x earnings multiple, but these advantages definitely warranted a valuation premium versus traditional (legacy) automobile companies such as Ford (F), General Motors (GM), or Volkswagen (OTCPK: VWAGY), which oftentimes trade at 5x to 10x net profits.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">During the pandemic, when consumers were flush with cash and when ultra-low interest rates made financing a vehicle easy, Tesla saw explosive growth and benefited from rising sales prices that lifted its margins. But from what we have seen in the more recent past, and especially in the just-released earnings report, it looks like the good times have come to an end for Tesla, as many metrics are moving in the wrong direction right now.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tesla generated deliveries growth of 36% during the first quarter, compared to one year earlier, as the company delivered 423,000 vehicles. While the 36% growth alone is significantly below the company&#39;s long-term target of growing its volumes by 50% per year on average, that&#39;s by far not the worst number in the first quarter. Instead, Tesla&#39;s performance based on many other metrics looked worse.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">The company grew its revenue by 24% year over year, which was way below the deliveries growth rate. The reason for that is that Tesla saw its average sales price compress considerably during the period, more than what the analyst community had forecasted. This is the total company-wide revenue growth rate, which includes Tesla&#39;s non-automobile businesses (e.g. energy). The non-auto businesses are not profitable yet, but bulls still see a lot of value in them due to their high relative growth. And it&#39;s true that growth in the non-auto business was way higher than in the auto business, as energy generation and storage revenue rose by 148% year over year, while services revenue rose by 44%. With those two units growing faster than the company-wide revenue growth rate, it is, of course, not surprising that Tesla&#39;s auto revenues grew less than 24% - the franchise generated revenue growth of 18% year over year. Growing deliveries by 36% while growing the revenue generated from these deliveries by just half that amount is pretty bad, of course - ideally, investors want to see revenue growth that is <em>higher</em> than volume growth (and not way lower), as this helps combat headwinds from inflation.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">With dropping sales prices, Tesla wasn&#39;t able to withstand headwinds from inflation, which is why its margins took a big hit. Tesla&#39;s gross margin came in at 19% for the quarter, down by a massive 1,000 base points from 29% one year earlier. When a company&#39;s size grows, investors generally want to see expanding margins, and many companies achieve this goal via operating leverage, fixed-cost digression, and so on. But in Tesla&#39;s case, that has absolutely not been the case, at least during the first quarter, as Tesla&#39;s margins slumped. This is an issue for an important part of the bull thesis - many bulls have stated that Tesla is deserving of a premium valuation due to its high and growing margins. And for some time, its margins did indeed expand, and a year ago they undoubtedly were high for an automobile company. But this trend is no longer playing out, as margins have now been dropping for some time, and margins also aren&#39;t especially high any longer:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a778ba5b27d63e0043e117b756b8cbd3\" alt=\"Chart\" title=\"Chart\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\"/><span>Chart</span></p><p>Data by YCharts</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Toyota (TM) and BMW (OTCPK: BMWYY) have gross margins of 17%, and Mercedes (OTCPK: MBGYY) has a gross margin of 23% - Tesla is in the middle of that. Being in the middle of its peer group margin-wise is not a bad result, but not a great result, either - and it&#39;s not supportive of a &#34;Tesla will always be the margin leader&#34; narrative.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">The combination of weaker-than-expected revenue growth and a massive hit to its margins has made Tesla&#39;s profits decline by 24% year over year, which is far from good for a growth stock trading at a premium valuation.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Declining profits, in combination with growing inventory levels (which isn&#39;t great either), has made Tesla&#39;s free cash flow slump by around 80%, to just $400 million for the quarter. While Tesla still has a strong cash position, which is good, of course, that cash pile isn&#39;t growing very fast any longer, unlike in the past, when Tesla oftentimes added more than $1 billion to its cash pile in a three-month period. And yet, despite these weak results for Tesla&#39;s Q1, things could get worse going forward.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">The Outlook Is Far From Great</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">As we have seen above, the biggest problems for Tesla are its declining sales prices, as those cause several issues: Revenues are growing way slower than deliveries, and margins are being compressed, which, in turn, causes profits and cash flows to decline.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">And based on the news we have seen today, we can assume that this trend will continue during the current quarter. Seeking Alpha reports:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c218ba24766b5622d12a6afae5bc562\" alt=\"TSLA price cuts\" title=\"TSLA price cuts\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"525\"/><span>TSLA price cuts</span></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">These price cuts are not reflected in the just-reported numbers yet, but they will surely have an impact on Tesla&#39;s Q2 results. Price decreases vary from model to model, but are mostly in the 5% range. In other words, average sales prices could decline at a mid-single-digit rate due to these price declines alone, and those aren&#39;t the only ones we have seen in the recent past - this is the sixth time Tesla has cut its US prices this year. Price cuts have also occurred in other important markets, primarily China, thus it seems unlikely that Tesla&#39;s international business will be a booster for its ASPs going forward.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">The expected hit to Tesla&#39;s revenues is not the most problematic issue, however. Instead, the margin hit will likely hurt even more. It&#39;s possible that Tesla finds a way to mitigate the margin headwind stemming from these price reductions, e.g. via more efficient ways of production, but so far, that has clearly not been the case, as margins took a huge hit during the most recent quarter. Unless something changes, margins will take another hit from the just-announced price decreases as well. If Tesla&#39;s gross margins during Q2 fully reflect an estimated 5% ASP decline, gross margins could drop from 19% to 14%, which would make for a 26% gross profit decline per car. That will be partially offset by higher deliveries, as long as Tesla manages to sell more vehicles during this year&#39;s Q2 vs. last year&#39;s Q2. I believe that it&#39;s likely that deliveries will increase, but it could still be quite difficult to battle a 25%-plus decline in Tesla&#39;s gross profit per car number.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">I thus believe that the near-term outlook for Tesla is far from exciting, as the weak results for Q1 and the price declines we have seen since then suggest that margins will remain weak (compared to the margins Tesla has generated in the past), and they could very well decline further during the current quarter. This, of course, could also result in further headwinds for profits and cash flows.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Final Thoughts</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tesla is not a bad company at all. But when an automobile company trades at around 50x net profits, while many legacy peers trade at 5x to 10x net profits, then business execution has to be excellent. And that&#39;s not the case here any longer.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">While deliveries are still growing at a sizable pace and while the balance sheet is strong, ASPs, margins, profits, and cash flows are moving in the wrong direction. And since Tesla keeps lowering its prices, which suggests demand issues, margins and profits could be even worse during the current quarter, and, potentially, beyond.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">The automobile industry is cyclical, capital-intense, very competitive, and famous for its low margins - and TSLA more and more looks like a traditional auto company when it comes to these issues. Its margins are now neither better nor worse than those of major legacy peers, which is why I do not believe that the current valuation is justified. Should TSLA be successful with its robotaxi efforts that could change, of course, but I wouldn&#39;t want to bet on that.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Tesla: That's Just The Beginning Of The Challenges</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nTesla: That's Just The Beginning Of The Challenges\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-04-20 08:01 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4595111-tesla-just-the-beginning-of-challenges><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryTesla reported weak Q1 results.Margins, profits, and cash flows are moving in the wrong direction.Q2 could be worse due to further price cuts.The valuation remains high.Article ThesisTesla (...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4595111-tesla-just-the-beginning-of-challenges\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"TSLA":"特斯拉"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4595111-tesla-just-the-beginning-of-challenges","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1196482326","content_text":"SummaryTesla reported weak Q1 results.Margins, profits, and cash flows are moving in the wrong direction.Q2 could be worse due to further price cuts.The valuation remains high.Article ThesisTesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) has reported quarterly results that are mostly seen as negative, as margins and earnings dropped considerably, while free cash generation was weak as well due to inventory piling up.But things could get worse over the coming quarters as further price reductions for Tesla's vehicles make it likely that margins will be even weaker during the second quarter, and possibly beyond.

Buffett and his company pride themselves on long-term investments, and given TSMC&#39;s lead in semiconductor manufacturing, it looked like what many would consider a &#34;Buffett stock.&#34;</p><p>However, in a recent interview, Buffett said that his lieutenants bought the stock and that he decided to reverse most of that decision due to geopolitical concerns. Should Buffett&#39;s reasoning concern investors about the semiconductor industry? Let&#39;s take a closer look.</p><h2>The problem with selling TSMC</h2><p>TSMC looks like a Buffett stock, and its industry influence and essential nature make it one of the great foreign companies in which to invest. It claims nearly 60% of the world&#39;s third-party chip production, according to TrendForce. Additionally, since it produces most of its chips in Taiwan, it is the main reason why approximately two-thirds of worldwide chip production takes place on the island. It is the primary manufacturer for companies such as <strong>Qualcomm</strong>, <strong>Advanced Micro Devices</strong>, and <strong>Apple</strong>, Berkshire&#39;s largest holding.</p><p>Buffett holds valid concerns about Taiwan. Geopolitical threats have intensified in recent months. If that unlikely scenario came to pass, losing most of Taiwan&#39;s production capacity holds devastating consequences for fabless chip companies.</p><p>Nonetheless, the problem with Buffett&#39;s decision is that he and his team placed more than 40% of Berkshire&#39;s assets into Apple. Apple reportedly makes up over 25% of TSMC&#39;s business, so Apple and TSMC are essential to one another. Moreover, that means Berkshire already took on TSMC&#39;s geopolitical risk by owning Apple. If the geopolitical threat is such a risk, why does Berkshire hold so much Apple stock?</p><h2>TSMC and China</h2><p>Buffett&#39;s assertion that a direct TSMC investment is dangerous but an indirect one is safe seems baffling. Admittedly, the geopolitical threat is possible, which is one of many reasons investors should diversify outside of the semiconductor industry.</p><p>Nonetheless, Berkshire&#39;s investment in Apple and its remaining TSMC stake are probably safe, since China also depends on the company&#39;s technology. Numerous products with TSMC&#39;s chips find their way to China, meaning the country would step back technologically if events were to sever China&#39;s ties to the company.</p><p>In the end, China can have Taiwan, or it can have products from TSMC&#39;s clients. However, it likely cannot have both, since TSMC&#39;s fabs would probably not survive a geopolitical threat. It may also mean that the semiconductor industry may be <em>saving </em>Taiwan from an attack, a benefit to investors and society alike.</p><h2>How investors should react</h2><p>Ultimately, shareholders should react by staying on a course that matches their comfort levels. Investors who feel uncomfortable with geopolitical risk should avoid TSMC. But they should probably also avoid Apple and all fabless semiconductor stocks since they likely source most or all of their manufacturing from Taiwan.</p><p>Conversely, risk-tolerant investors should feel comfortable holding TSMC, Apple, or any other chip stock. They just need to remember to diversify outside of that industry. They should also never forget that positions in fabless chip companies almost always amount to indirect investments in TSMC. Such knowledge can protect shareholders if Buffett&#39;s worst fears become a reality.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>How Investors Should React to Warren Buffett's Sale of Taiwan Semiconductor Stock</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nHow Investors Should React to Warren Buffett's Sale of Taiwan Semiconductor Stock\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-04-17 14:39 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/04/16/investors-react-warren-buffett-sale-tsmc-stock/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The decision by Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway to buy Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, better known as TSMC, and then sell most of that stock a short time later seemed to confuse most industry...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/04/16/investors-react-warren-buffett-sale-tsmc-stock/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"TSM":"台积电"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/04/16/investors-react-warren-buffett-sale-tsmc-stock/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2327496282","content_text":"The decision by Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway to buy Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, better known as TSMC, and then sell most of that stock a short time later seemed to confuse most industry observers.

Such knowledge can protect shareholders if Buffett's worst fears become a reality.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":49,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9944357553,"gmtCreate":1681721417572,"gmtModify":1681721420984,"author":{"id":"3575544575320394","authorId":"3575544575320394","name":"来人","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0af89587decbb8a1d3e1596adc29cb98","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/m/post/9944357553","repostId":"1140914972","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1140914972","pubTimestamp":1681715548,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1140914972?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-04-17 15:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla: Entering An Intense Competitive Arena","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1140914972","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryLike Maximus in the Gladiator, Tesla was leading the EVs charge.

Software like Google Lens and Google Photos rely on the company’s image-recognition systems, while its Google Assistant benefits from natural language processing research that Google has been doing for years. Still, its pace of deploying the technology has been deliberately measured and circumspect, whereas OpenAI’s ChatGPT has opened up a race to move forward with AI tools at a much faster clip. </p><p>“We don’t have all the answers there yet, and the technology is moving fast,” Pichai said. “So does that keep me up at night? Absolutely.” </p><p>Google is now playing catch-up in looking to infuse its products with generative AI — software that can create text, images, music or even video based on user prompts. ChatGPT and another OpenAI product, Dall-E, showed the technology’s potential, and countless businesses from Silicon Valley to China’s internet leaders are now getting involved in presenting their own offerings.

Software like Google Lens and Google Photos rely on the company’s image-recognition systems, while its Google Assistant benefits from natural language processing research that Google has been doing for years. Still, its pace of deploying the technology has been deliberately measured and circumspect, whereas OpenAI’s ChatGPT has opened up a race to move forward with AI tools at a much faster clip. “We don’t have all the answers there yet, and the technology is moving fast,” Pichai said. “So does that keep me up at night? Absolutely.” Google is now playing catch-up in looking to infuse its products with generative AI — software that can create text, images, music or even video based on user prompts. ChatGPT and another OpenAI product, Dall-E, showed the technology’s potential, and countless businesses from Silicon Valley to China’s internet leaders are now getting involved in presenting their own offerings. Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt urged global tech companies to come together and develop standards and appropriate guardrails, warning that any slowdown in development would “simply benefit China.”Former Google CEO Rejects AI Research Pause Over China FearsDespite the sense of urgency in the industry, Pichai cautioned against companies being swept up in the competitive dynamics. And he finds lessons in the experience of OpenAI’s more direct approach and debut of ChatGPT.“One of the points they have made is, you don’t want to put out a tech like this when it’s very, very powerful because it gives society no time to adapt,” Pichai said. “I think that’s a reasonable perspective. I think there are responsible people there trying to figure out how to approach this technology, and so are we.” Among the risks of generative AI that Pichai highlighted are so-called deepfake videos, in which individuals can be portrayed uttering remarks that they did not in fact give. Such pitfalls illustrate the need for regulation, Pichai said. “There have to be consequences for creating deepfake videos which cause harm to society,” he said. “Anybody who has worked with AI for a while, you know, you realize this is something so different and so deep that we would need societal regulations to think about how to adapt.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":0,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9944357820,"gmtCreate":1681721377761,"gmtModify":1681721381064,"author":{"id":"3575544575320394","authorId":"3575544575320394","name":"来人","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0af89587decbb8a1d3e1596adc29cb98","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/m/post/9944357820","repostId":"1115192410","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1115192410","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1681718440,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1115192410?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-04-17 16:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Prometheus Biosciences Surges 68% As Merck Will Buy the Biotechnology Company for About $11 Billion","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1115192410","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Prometheus Biosciences surged 68% in premarket trading Monday as Merck would buy the biotechnology c","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Prometheus Biosciences surged 68% in premarket trading Monday as Merck would buy the biotechnology company for about $11 billion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b75ac8b6b5a5975433fb7d01204df8a6\" tg-width=\"827\" tg-height=\"618\"/></p><p>Merck &amp; Co said on Sunday it will buy Prometheus Biosciences Inc for about $10.8 billion, picking up a promising experimental treatment for ulcerative colitis and Crohn&#39;s disease and building up its presence in immunology.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Merck will pay $200 per share for the California-based biotechnology company that specializes in treatments for autoimmune diseases.

For example, one reviewer, referring to the appearance of the P7’s exterior, wrote, “Stunner.” The reviewer, <em>CarNewsChina’s</em> Will Sundin, added that the interior of the EV has a “premium minimalistic look,” while the EV also has comprehensive technology, Level 2 ADAS, and great driving speed.

After test-driving the EV, Sam wrote that it is “a luxurious high-class sedan” which incorporates “the newest technology in autonomous driving.” Calling the EV’s exterior “impressive,” Sam referred to the interior as “spacious, refined, and modern” with “a futuristic feel.” Moreover, the EV’s technology is “very sophisticated,” while it drives “smoother… than other EVs,” the reviewer stated.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">On the battery-swapping front, Sundin, <em>CarNewsChina’s</em> reviewer, reported that the system “is very convenient,” as long as the batteries provided to drivers “are charged and ready to go.” (It sounds like Nio may once in a while provide batteries that aren’t completely charged and ready for action). Moreover, by choosing the swapping option, Sundin saved $10,000 on the EV’s initial price, although he has to pay $136 per month for the service.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: start;\">Range and Margin Issues</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">According to Sundin, the Pt7’s range is only 230 miles to 250 miles. Other EVs have a much longer range. For example, in Edmund’s tests, <strong>Tesla’s</strong> (NASDAQ: <strong><u>TSLA</u></strong>) Model Y has a range of 317 miles. And Sundin admits that “If you need long-range, then an NIO might not be the best choice.”</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Meanwhile, Nio’s “vehicle margin” sank to 6.8% in the fourth quarter of last year, down from 20.9% during the same period a year earlier and 16.4% in the previous quarter.
