A new flat base formed with a 299.10 buy point, although an early entry was seen when Alibaba stock gapped up on Sept. 30.\nImproving RS Line\nAlibaba stock has been on a sharp downtrend since hitting a high of 319.32 in late October.\nAlibaba'srelative strength linehas also been trending sharply lower. A stock's relative strength line, found in daily and weekly charts atinvestors.com, compares the stock's daily price performance to the S&P 500. An upward-sloping RS line means the stock is outperforming the S&P 500. A downward-sloping line means the stock is lagging the S&P 500.\nThe bottom line: With Alibaba stock still far off its high and below its recently converged 50-day and 200-day moving average lines, Alibaba is not a buy now because it still hasoverhead supplyto work through.\nRisk averse investors will wait and see if Alibaba can get back into rally mode and fully form the right side of abase. Renewed signs of institutional buying would help the stock's cause, but there aren't any signs of it yet. An early entry would be seen if Alibaba stock can move above its recent high of 274.29.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":176,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":321646713,"gmtCreate":1615433146032,"gmtModify":1704782703200,"author":{"id":"3576035380419847","authorId":"3576035380419847","authorIdStr":"3576035380419847","name":"kevinljj","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bfe20c9b63102a5c9a71d9410cf33e49","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576035380419847"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Awesome!","listText":"Awesome!","text":"Awesome!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/321646713","repostId":"2118030096","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2118030096","pubTimestamp":1615413600,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2118030096?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-11 06:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"While You Were Sleeping: 5 stories you might have missed, March 11","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2118030096","media":"The Straits Times","summary":"US Congress passes Covid-19 relief Bill in big win for BidenThe US Congress on Wednesday passed Joe ","content":"<div>\n<p>US Congress passes Covid-19 relief Bill in big win for BidenThe US Congress on Wednesday passed Joe Biden’s enormous economic relief package, delivering a resounding victory for the US president and a...</p>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.straitstimes.com/world/while-you-were-sleeping-5-stories-you-might-have-missed-march-11-2\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"straits_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Forecasters expect it to supercharge the US economic recovery.Top US, China diplomats to hold first in-person talks under BidenUS Secretary of State Antony Blinken will meet with top Chinese officials on March 18 during a stop in Alaska, the State Department said on Wednesday, marking the first high-level in-person contact between the two countries under the Biden administration.White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan will join the meeting in Anchorage with China's top diplomat, Yang Jiechi, and State Councillor Wang Yi.The meeting will follow Blinken's first overseas trip to US key allies Japan and South Korea. The two sides will discuss \"a range of issues,\" the department said in a statement without giving further details.Millions of websites offline after fire at French cloud services firmBreaking: OVH Cloud, one of Europe's largest data centers in France destroyed by fire, 3.6 million websites taken offline, no data is likely to be recoverable. #OVHcloud #OVH pic.twitter.com/fCYrIgiJYR— Terror Alarm (@terror_alarm) March 10, 2021A fire at a French cloud services firm has disrupted millions of websites, knocking out government agencies' portals, banks, shops, news websites and taking out a chunk of the .FR web space, according to Internet monitors.The fire, which broke out on Wednesday shortly after midnight at OVHcloud, destroyed one of four data centres in Strasbourg, in eastern France, and damaged another, the company said.There was no immediate explanation provided for the blaze, which erupted just two days after the French cloud computing firm kicked off plans for an initial public offering.Three hours in 'hell room': Myanmar protester describes beatingA protester in Myanmar who says he was detained by troops for three hours as part of the crackdown against opponents of last month's military coup has described being beaten with belts, chains, bamboo sticks and batons.In a rare first-hand account of the treatment of detained activists, the man told Reuters he was one of about 60 people picked up on Tuesday by police in Myeik, a southern coastal town, as they hid in a house after a protest was broken up by them.A military spokesman did not answer calls seeking comment on the man's allegations. Myeik police station did not answer its phone. The army has previously said it is dealing with protests lawfully.Tennis: Federer makes winning return after 13 months outRoger Federer won his first match contested in over a year on Wednesday as the 20-time Grand Slam champion returned from injury to beat British number one Dan Evans at the Qatar Open.Federer, who underwent two knee surgeries in 2020, still proved a tough opponent for an in-form Evans who ultimately succumbed 7-6 (10/8), 3-6, 7-5 after an epic tussle lasting two hours and 24 minutes.The Swiss great had not played a match since a semi-final defeat by Novak Djokovic at the Australian Open in January 2020 - 405 days ago - and acknowledged it was unusual for a player of his age to return after injury.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":145,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":321646446,"gmtCreate":1615433112385,"gmtModify":1704782704491,"author":{"id":"3576035380419847","authorId":"3576035380419847","authorIdStr":"3576035380419847","name":"kevinljj","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bfe20c9b63102a5c9a71d9410cf33e49","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576035380419847"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Awesome","listText":"Awesome","text":"Awesome","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/321646446","repostId":"2118605748","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2118605748","pubTimestamp":1615419198,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2118605748?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-11 07:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tech war with news media flares in US with new Congress push","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2118605748","media":"The Straits Times","summary":"WASHINGTON (BLOOMBERG) - The battle between news publishers and Alphabet Inc's Google and Facebook I","content":"<div>\n<p>WASHINGTON (BLOOMBERG) - The battle between news publishers and Alphabet Inc's Google and Facebook Inc that flared up in Australia recently is coming to the US.\nLawmakers re-introduced legislation ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.straitstimes.com/world/united-states/tech-war-with-news-media-flares-in-us-with-new-congress-push\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"straits_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

In Europe, publishers have been lobbying European Union lawmakers to copy parts of the Australian law.\n\"Local news is on life support in this country,\" Democratic Representative David Cicilline of Rhode Island said in an interview.Mr Cicilline who chairs the House antitrust subcommittee is one of the sponsors.\n\"And so this approach creates an opportunity to protect a free press and make certain that they have the ability to negotiate the use content,\" he said.\nPublishers have long complained that Facebook and Google are profiting off their content by siphoning ad revenue and controlling valuable data about readers.\nMedia organisations argue that to gain negotiating leverage and level the playing field, they must be able to collectively bargain with the platforms, something that's prohibited under US antitrust laws.\nThe proposed legislation would grant them a safe harbour from that restriction, but it doesn't include a proposal for forced arbitration between the tech companies and the publishers, a provision that's included in the Australian law and which the tech companies fought.\nFacebook even went so far as to blackout its news feed in the country before winning some concessions.\nMs Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, who is leading the initiative in the Senate, said the legislation is necessary to help publishers better negotiate by giving them tools to counteract the power of Google and Facebook.\n\"The reason that we're brought to this moment is that they have an unfettered monopoly,\" Ms Klobuchar said in an interview. Google and Facebook \"thought they had so much power they could literally exit a major country,\" she added.\nMs Klobuchar said the legislation has a better shot at passage this time because of bipartisan interest in antitrust issues today.\nSenate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell will be a cosponsor of the Bill, she said. Mr Ken Buck, a Colorado Republican and the ranking member of the House antitrust committee, is a co-sponsor of the legislation in the House along with Mr Cicilline.\n\"Local journalism plays such an important role in keeping the American people informed, but many of our community newspapers have been crushed by the threat of big tech,\" Mr Buck said in a statement. \"This bipartisan Bill will send a lifeline to local news organisations struggling to survive because Google and Facebook have decimated the news industry.\"\nThe House will wade into the issue Friday (March 12) when the antitrust panel holds a hearing as part of its initiative to consider antitrust reforms following a 16-month investigation that accused tech companies of squashing competition.\nIn its report on the findings of the investigation, the committee recommended providing publishers the antitrust safe harbour provision, saying the risk associated with antitrust exemptions are low, \"while the benefits of preserving access to high-quality journalism are difficult to overstate.\"\nMr David Chavern, the president of the News Media Alliance, a trade association that represents about 2,000 news organisations in the US, said the biggest beneficiaries would be small publishers, and it's the \"only way to get some capacity to negotiate.\"\nAustralia's initial proposal would have forced the companies to submit to arbitration to determine how much to pay publishers if deals couldn't be struck. In response, Google threatened to shut down its search engine, while Facebook imposed a news blackout on its platform in the county.\nGoogle is moving to negotiate deals with publishers, while Facebook backed down after concessions from the government allowing the companies to choose which commercial deals to pursue, and only subjecting them to arbitration as a last resort. The Australian Parliament passed the legislation last month.\nFacebook's standoff with Australia prompted Mr Cicilline to lash out at the company.\n\"Threatening to bring an entire country to its knees to agree to Facebook's terms is the ultimate admission of monopoly power,\" he tweeted.\nThe possibility of forced arbitration could emerge in the US. Mr Chavern said the News Media Alliance is examining proposals that could force the platforms to pay for news when an agreement can't be reached. Mr Cicilline said an arbitration measure is something he would consider adding.\n\"The foot can't be taken off the gas,\" Mr Jason Kint, chief executive officer of Digital Content Next, an Internet publisher trade group that counts Bloomberg News as a member, said in an interview. \"You have to convince the public that these companies are problematic to the health of the industry the way it works right now.\"\nMs Danielle Coffey, senior vice-president and general counsel of the News Media Alliance, said the group is working with the lawmakers to include an oversight mechanism in an expanded Bill.\n\"I'm sure they will look at Australia in considering what to do,\" said Ms Coffey. \"The most important thing is the goal to get equitable terms for small and local publishers and to require good faith negotiations by the platforms.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":140,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":321646158,"gmtCreate":1615433070774,"gmtModify":1704782702550,"author":{"id":"3576035380419847","authorId":"3576035380419847","authorIdStr":"3576035380419847","name":"kevinljj","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bfe20c9b63102a5c9a71d9410cf33e49","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576035380419847"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Awesome.","listText":"Awesome.","text":"Awesome.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/321646158","repostId":"2118606464","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2118606464","pubTimestamp":1615419731,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2118606464?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-11 07:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Stocks to Buy for Dividends and Growth as Dow Hits Record","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2118606464","media":"Zacks","summary":"The Nasdaq bounced back on Tuesday and closed Wednesday just barely in the red, which is a positive ","content":"<p>The Nasdaq bounced back on Tuesday and closed Wednesday just barely in the red, which is a positive sign after a few weeks of major swings.

As tech stocks cooled off, the Dow popped 1.5% during regular trading to close above 32000 for the first time.\nThe blue-chip index notched its 11th record close of 2021. The S&P 500 jumped 0.60% to inch within 1.2% of its mid-February highs, as Wall Street rotates into underperforming areas, as well as reopening stocks.\nInvestors are attempting to figure out what impact more government spending and the increased likelihood of a huge vaccine-boosted economic comeback will have on the market. For instance, a Wall Street Journal survey of economists projects that U.S. GDP will grow by 5.95% in 2021, for its fastest in roughly 40 years.\nThe rising bond yields signal increased inflation worries. But U.S. Treasury yields remain historically low and the earnings outlook for the S&P 500 has improved substantially over the last several months.\nGiven this backdrop, investors likely want to find ways to safely add to their portfolios this year. Today, we review two highly-ranked stocks with solid fundamentals and Treasury-topping dividend yields that might be worth buying…\nRent-A-Center, Inc. RCII\nRent-A-Center is a lease-to-own retail giant that enables people to slowly pay off everything from furniture and appliances to TVs and more. The company’s sales climbed over 5% in 2020 and it topped our Q4 sales estimates in late February.

Something's got to give.</p>\n<p>The US government reported last week that consumer prices, excluding food and energy, rose at their fastest clip since 1992 in May. Sherwin-Williams (SHW) is lifting the price of paint, one of many companies that's responding to higher commodities costs.</p>\n<p>Food prices are also surging. Chipotle (CMG) just raised prices. So did Campbell Soup (CPB).</p>\n<p>And the chief financial officer of restaurant and arcade chain Dave &amp; Buster's (PLAY) said during a recent earnings call with analysts that he expects a 6% to 8% increase in food costs for 2021 due to higher chicken, beef and dairy prices.</p>\n<p>Wages are rising too, especially for workers in the retail, leisure and hospitality sectors that are returning to jobs as the economy reopens. That adds to inflationary pressures, because some companies will choose to hike prices in order to maintain profits.</p>\n<p>Labor shortages aren't helping.</p>\n<p>The CEO of online pet retailer Chewy (CHWY) wrote in a letter to shareholders after its latest earnings report that it \"faced labor shortages in our fulfillment centers similar to those being faced by many companies nationwide.\" As a result, Chewy continues \"to invest in higher wages and benefits\" in order to fill job vacancies.</p>\n<p>Yet investors — and the Federal Reserve — are shrugging off rising inflation as \"transitory.\" Long-term bond yields are falling, which isn't what normally happens when inflation runs hot. If bond investors believed that price hikes are here to stay, they'd be demanding higher yields.</p>\n<p>And the market is pricing in just a 3% chance of a rate hike from the Fed by the end of the year. That's down from a 10% likelihood of higher rates just a month ago. Investors know a rate hike is the central bank's best tool to fight rising inflation, and they'll want to hear more on the subject when Fed chair Jerome Powell speaks at a press conference on Wednesday.</p>\n<p>\"The bond market is still not concerned about inflation. It's buying what the Fed is selling,\" said Randy Warren, CEO of Warren Financial.</p>\n<p>The problem is that there is a chance the Fed could wait too long to react to inflation.</p>\n<p>\"Is inflation transitory or something more structural?\" asked Steven Oh, global head of credit and fixed income with PineBridge Investments. \"Will the Fed lose control of it down the road and make a policy error and not have the ability to rein it in?\"</p>\n<p>If the Fed and bond market are wrong about inflation, the central bank may have to wind down its pandemic stimulus much more quickly than it — and investors — would like. That would mean unwinding its big asset purchases and raising rates sooner rather than later.</p>\n<p>Oh doesn't think that will be the case. And many others agree. They argue that investors must keep in mind how rapidly the economy has roared back.</p>\n<p>For that reason, it should not be that big of a surprise that there are dislocations in the job market and supply chain. It will take time for conditions to revert to what they were like in late 2019 and early 2020 before Covid-19.</p>\n<p>\"There are a lot of questions about inflation because you see it in everyday life,\" said Bryan Koslow, principal of Clarus Group, a wealth management firm. \"But we may have seen the peak, especially in terms of wage growth.\"</p>\n<p>Even if that does turn out to be true, the mere fact that investors and consumers are so focused on prices is noteworthy. Inflation has essentially been a non-issue for more than a decade.</p>\n<p>\"The Fed has to take the inflation concerns seriously,\" said Troy Gayeski, co-chief investment officer and senior portfolio manager at SkyBridge Capital. He added that he thinks there is a 20% chance that inflation pressures turn out to be more persistent as opposed to transitory.</p>\n<p>\"The risk of meaningful inflation has been non-existent since 2008. Until now,\" Gayeski said.</p>\n<p><b>What's getting more expensive</b></p>\n<p>Food and paint aren't the only things getting more expensive. As CNN Business' Moira Ritter points out, the prices of just about everything have gone up lately.</p>\n<p>Lumber prices have soared. And the housing market continues to boom. That's led to a big spike in the prices of couches and other household furnishings.</p>\n<p>Used cars are a lot more expensive too. Chalk that up to people returning to work and a dearth of new cars on dealership lots due to the chip supply shortage that has hurt production of new vehicles.</p>\n<p>People are traveling more as well. Airfares have shot up in anticipation of what some are dubbing the red hot vaccine summer.</p>\n<p><b>Up next</b></p>\n<p><b>Tuesday: </b>US retail sales; US producer price index; Earnings from Oracle (ORCL) and H &amp; R Block (HRB)</p>\n<p><b>Wednesday: </b>Federal Reserve rate decision; US housing starts and building permits; EIA crude oil inventories; Earnings from Lennar (LEN)</p>\n<p><b>Thursday: </b>US jobless claims; Earnings from Kroger (KR) and Adobe (ADBE)</p>","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>Investors and the Fed aren't freaking out about inflation.

So did Campbell Soup (CPB).\nAnd the chief financial officer of restaurant and arcade chain Dave & Buster's (PLAY) said during a recent earnings call with analysts that he expects a 6% to 8% increase in food costs for 2021 due to higher chicken, beef and dairy prices.\nWages are rising too, especially for workers in the retail, leisure and hospitality sectors that are returning to jobs as the economy reopens. That adds to inflationary pressures, because some companies will choose to hike prices in order to maintain profits.\nLabor shortages aren't helping.\nThe CEO of online pet retailer Chewy (CHWY) wrote in a letter to shareholders after its latest earnings report that it \"faced labor shortages in our fulfillment centers similar to those being faced by many companies nationwide.\" As a result, Chewy continues \"to invest in higher wages and benefits\" in order to fill job vacancies.\nYet investors — and the Federal Reserve — are shrugging off rising inflation as \"transitory.\" Long-term bond yields are falling, which isn't what normally happens when inflation runs hot. If bond investors believed that price hikes are here to stay, they'd be demanding higher yields.\nAnd the market is pricing in just a 3% chance of a rate hike from the Fed by the end of the year. That's down from a 10% likelihood of higher rates just a month ago. Investors know a rate hike is the central bank's best tool to fight rising inflation, and they'll want to hear more on the subject when Fed chair Jerome Powell speaks at a press conference on Wednesday.\n\"The bond market is still not concerned about inflation. It's buying what the Fed is selling,\" said Randy Warren, CEO of Warren Financial.\nThe problem is that there is a chance the Fed could wait too long to react to inflation.\n\"Is inflation transitory or something more structural?\" asked Steven Oh, global head of credit and fixed income with PineBridge Investments. \"Will the Fed lose control of it down the road and make a policy error and not have the ability to rein it in?\"\nIf the Fed and bond market are wrong about inflation, the central bank may have to wind down its pandemic stimulus much more quickly than it — and investors — would like. That would mean unwinding its big asset purchases and raising rates sooner rather than later.\nOh doesn't think that will be the case. And many others agree. They argue that investors must keep in mind how rapidly the economy has roared back.\nFor that reason, it should not be that big of a surprise that there are dislocations in the job market and supply chain. It will take time for conditions to revert to what they were like in late 2019 and early 2020 before Covid-19.\n\"There are a lot of questions about inflation because you see it in everyday life,\" said Bryan Koslow, principal of Clarus Group, a wealth management firm. \"But we may have seen the peak, especially in terms of wage growth.\"\nEven if that does turn out to be true, the mere fact that investors and consumers are so focused on prices is noteworthy. Inflation has essentially been a non-issue for more than a decade.\n\"The Fed has to take the inflation concerns seriously,\" said Troy Gayeski, co-chief investment officer and senior portfolio manager at SkyBridge Capital. He added that he thinks there is a 20% chance that inflation pressures turn out to be more persistent as opposed to transitory.\n\"The risk of meaningful inflation has been non-existent since 2008. Until now,\" Gayeski said.\nWhat's getting more expensive\nFood and paint aren't the only things getting more expensive. As CNN Business' Moira Ritter points out, the prices of just about everything have gone up lately.\nLumber prices have soared. And the housing market continues to boom. That's led to a big spike in the prices of couches and other household furnishings.\nUsed cars are a lot more expensive too. Chalk that up to people returning to work and a dearth of new cars on dealership lots due to the chip supply shortage that has hurt production of new vehicles.\nPeople are traveling more as well. Airfares have shot up in anticipation of what some are dubbing the red hot vaccine summer.\nUp next\nTuesday: US retail sales; US producer price index; Earnings from Oracle (ORCL) and H & R Block (HRB)\nWednesday: Federal Reserve rate decision;

Forecasters expect it to supercharge the US economic recovery.Top US, China diplomats to hold first in-person talks under BidenUS Secretary of State Antony Blinken will meet with top Chinese officials on March 18 during a stop in Alaska, the State Department said on Wednesday, marking the first high-level in-person contact between the two countries under the Biden administration.White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan will join the meeting in Anchorage with China's top diplomat, Yang Jiechi, and State Councillor Wang Yi.The meeting will follow Blinken's first overseas trip to US key allies Japan and South Korea. The two sides will discuss \"a range of issues,\" the department said in a statement without giving further details.Millions of websites offline after fire at French cloud services firmBreaking: OVH Cloud, one of Europe's largest data centers in France destroyed by fire, 3.6 million websites taken offline, no data is likely to be recoverable. #OVHcloud #OVH pic.twitter.com/fCYrIgiJYR— Terror Alarm (@terror_alarm) March 10, 2021A fire at a French cloud services firm has disrupted millions of websites, knocking out government agencies' portals, banks, shops, news websites and taking out a chunk of the .FR web space, according to Internet monitors.The fire, which broke out on Wednesday shortly after midnight at OVHcloud, destroyed one of four data centres in Strasbourg, in eastern France, and damaged another, the company said.There was no immediate explanation provided for the blaze, which erupted just two days after the French cloud computing firm kicked off plans for an initial public offering.Three hours in 'hell room': Myanmar protester describes beatingA protester in Myanmar who says he was detained by troops for three hours as part of the crackdown against opponents of last month's military coup has described being beaten with belts, chains, bamboo sticks and batons.In a rare first-hand account of the treatment of detained activists, the man told Reuters he was one of about 60 people picked up on Tuesday by police in Myeik, a southern coastal town, as they hid in a house after a protest was broken up by them.A military spokesman did not answer calls seeking comment on the man's allegations. Myeik police station did not answer its phone. The army has previously said it is dealing with protests lawfully.Tennis: Federer makes winning return after 13 months outRoger Federer won his first match contested in over a year on Wednesday as the 20-time Grand Slam champion returned from injury to beat British number one Dan Evans at the Qatar Open.Federer, who underwent two knee surgeries in 2020, still proved a tough opponent for an in-form Evans who ultimately succumbed 7-6 (10/8), 3-6, 7-5 after an epic tussle lasting two hours and 24 minutes.The Swiss great had not played a match since a semi-final defeat by Novak Djokovic at the Australian Open in January 2020 - 405 days ago - and acknowledged it was unusual for a player of his age to return after injury.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":145,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":324725633,"gmtCreate":1616032650622,"gmtModify":1704789979957,"author":{"id":"3576035380419847","authorId":"3576035380419847","authorIdStr":"3576035380419847","name":"kevinljj","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bfe20c9b63102a5c9a71d9410cf33e49","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576035380419847"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/324725633","repostId":"2120131417","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2120131417","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":1616031326,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2120131417?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-18 09:35","market":"fut","language":"en","title":"Oil falls a fifth day lower after U.S. stockpile build","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2120131417","media":"Reuters","summary":"TOKYO, March 18 (Reuters) - Oil prices dropped for a fifth day on Thursday after official data showe","content":"<p>TOKYO, March 18 (Reuters) - Oil prices dropped for a fifth day on Thursday after official data showed a sustained rise in U.S. crude and fuel inventories, while the ever-present pandemic clouded the demand outlook.</p>\n<p>Brent crude was down 12 cents, or 0.2%, at $67.88 a barrel by 0119 GMT after dropping by 0.6% on Wednesday.

In Europe, publishers have been lobbying European Union lawmakers to copy parts of the Australian law.\n\"Local news is on life support in this country,\" Democratic Representative David Cicilline of Rhode Island said in an interview.Mr Cicilline who chairs the House antitrust subcommittee is one of the sponsors.\n\"And so this approach creates an opportunity to protect a free press and make certain that they have the ability to negotiate the use content,\" he said.\nPublishers have long complained that Facebook and Google are profiting off their content by siphoning ad revenue and controlling valuable data about readers.\nMedia organisations argue that to gain negotiating leverage and level the playing field, they must be able to collectively bargain with the platforms, something that's prohibited under US antitrust laws.\nThe proposed legislation would grant them a safe harbour from that restriction, but it doesn't include a proposal for forced arbitration between the tech companies and the publishers, a provision that's included in the Australian law and which the tech companies fought.\nFacebook even went so far as to blackout its news feed in the country before winning some concessions.\nMs Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, who is leading the initiative in the Senate, said the legislation is necessary to help publishers better negotiate by giving them tools to counteract the power of Google and Facebook.\n\"The reason that we're brought to this moment is that they have an unfettered monopoly,\" Ms Klobuchar said in an interview. Google and Facebook \"thought they had so much power they could literally exit a major country,\" she added.\nMs Klobuchar said the legislation has a better shot at passage this time because of bipartisan interest in antitrust issues today.\nSenate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell will be a cosponsor of the Bill, she said. Mr Ken Buck, a Colorado Republican and the ranking member of the House antitrust committee, is a co-sponsor of the legislation in the House along with Mr Cicilline.\n\"Local journalism plays such an important role in keeping the American people informed, but many of our community newspapers have been crushed by the threat of big tech,\" Mr Buck said in a statement. \"This bipartisan Bill will send a lifeline to local news organisations struggling to survive because Google and Facebook have decimated the news industry.\"\nThe House will wade into the issue Friday (March 12) when the antitrust panel holds a hearing as part of its initiative to consider antitrust reforms following a 16-month investigation that accused tech companies of squashing competition.\nIn its report on the findings of the investigation, the committee recommended providing publishers the antitrust safe harbour provision, saying the risk associated with antitrust exemptions are low, \"while the benefits of preserving access to high-quality journalism are difficult to overstate.\"\nMr David Chavern, the president of the News Media Alliance, a trade association that represents about 2,000 news organisations in the US, said the biggest beneficiaries would be small publishers, and it's the \"only way to get some capacity to negotiate.\"\nAustralia's initial proposal would have forced the companies to submit to arbitration to determine how much to pay publishers if deals couldn't be struck. In response, Google threatened to shut down its search engine, while Facebook imposed a news blackout on its platform in the county.\nGoogle is moving to negotiate deals with publishers, while Facebook backed down after concessions from the government allowing the companies to choose which commercial deals to pursue, and only subjecting them to arbitration as a last resort. The Australian Parliament passed the legislation last month.\nFacebook's standoff with Australia prompted Mr Cicilline to lash out at the company.\n\"Threatening to bring an entire country to its knees to agree to Facebook's terms is the ultimate admission of monopoly power,\" he tweeted.\nThe possibility of forced arbitration could emerge in the US. Mr Chavern said the News Media Alliance is examining proposals that could force the platforms to pay for news when an agreement can't be reached. Mr Cicilline said an arbitration measure is something he would consider adding.\n\"The foot can't be taken off the gas,\" Mr Jason Kint, chief executive officer of Digital Content Next, an Internet publisher trade group that counts Bloomberg News as a member, said in an interview. \"You have to convince the public that these companies are problematic to the health of the industry the way it works right now.\"\nMs Danielle Coffey, senior vice-president and general counsel of the News Media Alliance, said the group is working with the lawmakers to include an oversight mechanism in an expanded Bill.\n\"I'm sure they will look at Australia in considering what to do,\" said Ms Coffey. \"The most important thing is the goal to get equitable terms for small and local publishers and to require good faith negotiations by the platforms.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":140,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":321646158,"gmtCreate":1615433070774,"gmtModify":1704782702550,"author":{"id":"3576035380419847","authorId":"3576035380419847","authorIdStr":"3576035380419847","name":"kevinljj","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bfe20c9b63102a5c9a71d9410cf33e49","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576035380419847"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Awesome.","listText":"Awesome.","text":"Awesome.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/321646158","repostId":"2118606464","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2118606464","pubTimestamp":1615419731,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2118606464?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-03-11 07:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Stocks to Buy for Dividends and Growth as Dow Hits Record","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2118606464","media":"Zacks","summary":"The Nasdaq bounced back on Tuesday and closed Wednesday just barely in the red, which is a positive ","content":"<p>The Nasdaq bounced back on Tuesday and closed Wednesday just barely in the red, which is a positive sign after a few weeks of major swings.

RCII</b></p>\n<p>Rent-A-Center is a lease-to-own retail giant that enables people to slowly pay off everything from furniture and appliances to TVs and more. The company’s sales climbed over 5% in 2020 and it topped our Q4 sales estimates in late February. RCII’s adjusted fourth earnings surged nearly 80% and its sales jumped 7%, as its second-half growth improved significantly from a coronavirus-impacted first half of 2020.</p>\n<p>RCII in February also closed its acquisition of Acima Holdings to help improve its e-commerce offerings in a world where many companies now offer payment plans on everything from electronics to shoes. “E-commerce and digital payments are enhancing our engagement with our customers, and we have a strategic advantage compared to other firms competing in the virtual lease-to-own (‘LTO’) industry to further leverage our last-mile capabilities,” CEO Mitch Fadel said in prepared Q4 remarks.</p>\n<p>Zacks estimates call for Rent-A-Center’s revenue to soar 55% to reach $4.4 billion in fiscal 2021 and another 11% in FY22. Meanwhile, its adjusted earnings are projected to climb by 44% and 18%, respectively over this stretch. Both the projected top and bottom-line growth will be boosted by its Acima purchase.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3bf11e9e436cde28595883b8e94ed31e\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"194\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>The chart showcases how much Rent-A-Center’s earnings out ook has improved since its report, with its FY21 consensus up 37%. RCII’s positive EPS revisions help it land a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), alongside its “A” grade for Momentum and “B” for Value in our Style Scores system.</p>\n<p>RCII shares have soared 230% during the last 12 months to crush Target’s TGT 65% and Shopify’s SHOP 142%.

The stock quickly recovered its early March losses to trade at brand new records on Wednesday of over $61 a share. The run makes RCII’s 2% dividend yield all the more impressive. And the 2% yield easily tops the 10-year Treasury and retail giant Walmart’s WMT 1.7%.</p>\n<p>RCII trades at 0.70X forward sales to mark a solid discount to its industry’s 5.5X and its own <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-year highs of 1X. The same is true for its valuation in terms of forward earnings.</p>\n<p>Plus, five of the seven broker recommendations Zacks has for Rent-A-Center come in at “Strong Buys,” with none lower than a \"Hold.\"&nbsp; And Rent-A-Center’s Acima acquisition, which it hopes creates a “premier fintech platform across traditional and virtual lease-to-own segments,” could prove vital in the quickly-changing retail landscape.</p>\n<p><b>Texas Instruments TXN</b></p>\n<p>Texas Instruments makes analog and embedded semiconductors that are utilized within the automotive and industrial sectors, as well as consumer electronics, communications equipment and elsewhere. The chip power returned to growth in the last two quarters of 2020 after a tough stretch within the historically cyclical space.</p>\n<p>TXN beat our Q4 FY20 estimates in late January, with revenue up 22% from the year-ago quarter to help its adjusted earnings surge over 60%. The strong back-half of 2020 helped Texas Instruments sales grow by 0.5% on the year. Like with RCII, analysts have raised their outlooks for Texas Instruments since its last report, with its FY21 consensus earnings estimate up 13% and its FY22 figure 12% higher.</p>\n<p>Looking ahead, Zacks estimates call for its revenue to climb over 15% this year to reach $16.7 billion—which would easily top FY18’s total—and help lift its adjusted EPS by 12%. TXN’s top and bottom-line growth is expected to continue in FY22 to the tune of 5% stronger revenue and 9% higher earnings.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/52ee41f17ddeaaeeb6ed59d42dea5666\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>TXN’s bottom-line revisions help the stock grab a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at the moment. Texas Instruments also earns a “B” grade for both Growth and it has consistently surpassed our earnings estimates, including a 35% average beat in the trailing four periods.</p>\n<p>The tech giant with a $156 billion market cap is also firmly committed to rewarding shareholders, as it continually improves its balance sheet. TXN has raised its dividend for 17 years in a row, including a 13% hike in 2020.</p>\n<p>Texas Instruments is poised to keep buying back stock, having already reduced its share count by 46% over the past 15 years. The dividend currently yields 2.4% to top Intel INTC and the 30-year U.S. Treasury, which both sit at roughly 2.2%.</p>\n<p>The yield isn’t artificially inflated by a falling stock price either, with TXN up 60% in the last year to just outpace its highly-ranked industry. Texas Instruments shares have also largely matched its industry over the three years and the past decade. At $169 a share, TXN closed regular trading Wednesday roughly 6% below its mid-February records.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Texas Instruments rests below neutral levels in terms of RSI at 48—where anything above 70 is considered overbought and below 30 is thought of as oversold. The stock also trades right at its own year-long median when it comes to forward 12-month sales and earnings.</p>","source":"yahoofinance","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>2 Stocks to Buy for Dividends and Growth as Dow Hits Record</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\">\n2 Stocks to Buy for Dividends and Growth as Dow Hits Record\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-03-11 07:42 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/2-stocks-buy-dividends-growth-234211488.html><strong>Zacks</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The Nasdaq bounced back on Tuesday and closed Wednesday just barely in the red, which is a positive sign after a few weeks of major swings.
