A 3x-leveraged ETF is 3x as volatile as the benchmark it&#39;s looking to copy.</p><p>Semis:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9d915744f2a6776e745da15b2cecab4\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Tech:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dfac9d30f417c667d74397fc29f1dcdd\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><ul><li><b>Daily performance</b></li></ul><p>This is one of the features many investors miss or fail to understand.</p><p>Leveraged ETFs are trying to mimic the daily performance of a certain benchmark. As such, when you look at the daily (or short-term for that matter) performance - the leveraged ETF is likely to show a very/fairly close return to the leverage it offers (be it a long or a short mechanism). For example:</p><p>Semis&#39; 1-day price change: Daily returns of SOXL and SOXS are about +3x and -3x, respectively, the daily return of SOXX.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/08ca1f40fcd06f5ad9537f02af6ffe76\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Tech&#39;s 1-day price change: Daily returns of TQQQ and SQQQ are about +3x and -3x, respectively, the daily return of QQQ.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a55a842f81460cba9dc1a6938d472d92\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Nonetheless, if we move to a longer period, say 2022, the math isn&#39;t as straight as it&#39;s when we look at the short-term.</p><p>Semis&#39; YTD price change: YTD returns of SOXL and SOXS are about +2.65x and -0.07x, respectively, the YTD return of SOXX.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92d1ddfcba6984ae9d30559901dfc14c\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Tech&#39;s YTD price change: YTD returns of TQQQ and SQQQ are about +2.61x and -2.87x [=(52.59+28.13)/-28.13], respectively, the daily return of QQQ.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/411ddaf98aa8aa072f20f9953bac8e26\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Over time, and assuming the benchmark/index doesn&#39;t move in a (fairly) straight line - the performance of a leveraged ETF may differ significantly from the performance of the underlying benchmark.</p><h3>Risk and Reward</h3><ul><li>Phenomenal/Horrendous Total Returns</li></ul><p>First and foremost, as you may well understand, the main risk is the (quite reasonable) scenario of losing a lot of money, quickly.</p><p>Of course, there&#39;s always the flip-side of that coin, and leveraged ETFs may also deliver significant returns (during short periods).</p><p>If &#34;Timing is Everything&#34;, generally speaking, it&#39;s even more crucial when it comes to buying leveraged ETFs. One must have a high conviction, a near-perfect timing, a short-term trading view/mentality, and an exit (including stop loss) strategy. [We elaborate on these elements at the end of this article.]</p><p>Below you can see the total returns of the leveraged ETFs we focus on during two very different periods.</p><p>1) Bear Market: Total Return since Dec. 27, 2021</p><p>Semis:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6894a55ca17620f94b6c167ef6402e40\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Tech:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1101bbe95e105d513c3e3ea4558a48fd\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Clearly, there&#39;s a lot of money to be lost (or made) during a bear market with any instrument, let alone 3x-leveraged ETFs. While the benchmarks (SOXX, QQQ) have lost ~30%, the ultra long ETFs (SOXL, TQQQ) have lost over 3/4 of their value, and the ultra short ETFs (SOXS, SQQQ) have actually gained.</p><p>Pay attention to the divergence between SOXS (a gain of only 4.5%) and SQQQ (a gain of 59.3%), a result of the recent speedy recovery of Semis (relative to Tech) in recent weeks.</p><p>2) Bull Market: Total Return from Mar. 23, 2020 to Dec. 27, 2021</p><p>Semis:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92b8f1a0c1b82b3cb1e5ad23e4896cd7\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Tech:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b74788301b08e6b05cb21c07a2bf633e\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Clearly, there&#39;s a lot of money to be lost (or made) during a bull market with any instrument, let alone 3x-leveraged ETFs. While the benchmarks (SOXX, QQQ) have gained low triple-digit %, the ultra long ETFs (SOXL, TQQQ) have delivered stunning returns. At the same time, the ultra short ETFs (SOXS, SQQQ) have practically vanished, leaving investors with (nearly) nothing out of their initial investments.</p><ul><li>The Longer the Tenure - the Higher the Risk of Losing Big</li></ul><p>Secondly, and regardless of the (bull or bear) type of market we&#39;re in and/or the total return over a certain period, leveraged ETFs are guaranteed to lose value over time. Putting it differently, the longer you stick to these instruments - the higher the odds of a significant drawdown.</p><p>Below you can see how deep is the decline that leveraged ETFs have (thus may) suffered from (% off-high) over different tenures.</p><ul><li>3 years: While the long versions (SOXL, TQQQ) have lost 75%-80%, the short versions (SOXS, SQQQ) have lost nearly their entire value.</li></ul><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8a6e0590652f7807dac6b79902906e56\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"501\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>10 years: While the long versions (SOXL, TQQQ) have lost 75%-80%, the short versions (SOXS, SQQQ) have lost nearly their entire value.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/06cfda7540359bd9cc38adb53f3c0ce5\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"501\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Although the past decade can definitely be described as a bull market (overall), leveraged ETFs have been hammered, no matter whether they were long or short the underlying benchmarks.</p><p>This, once again, proves that these instruments can&#39;t be held (long position) over the long run. You can be long, but not for too long.</p><ul><li>&#34;The Road is Long With Many a Winding Turn&#34; [Source]</li></ul><p>Finally, it&#39;s important to understand that both time and slope play a major role in determining the return, therefore worthiness, of trading a leveraged ETF.</p><p>It&#39;s very unlikely, almost impossible, for your long (short) leveraged ETF position to deliver a return equal to the (inverse) return of the underlying, non-leveraged, benchmark.</p><p>To explain this, let&#39;s use the S&amp;P 500 and its +/-1/2/3 leveraged versions.</p><p>Naturally, the 2x- (SSO, SDS) and 3x- (SPXL, SPXU) leveraged versions are 2x and 3x as volatile as the non-leveraged versions (SPY, SH).</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bad8a8d33cac5ca5325d1e87252fcc57\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"501\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>But does the extra volatility usually/automatically translate into higher returns? Not necessarily.</p><p>YTD: While the returns of the long versions (SPY, SSO, SPXL) make sense (from a leverage/volatility perspective), those of the short versions (SH, SDS, SPXS) don&#39;t.</p><p>As a matter of fact, the 2x-leveraged SDS and the 3x-leveraged SPXS have delivered nearly the same total returns. If so, why would one pick the more risky SPXS over the less risky SDS!?</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/70c1d7bf3df268038e733ac481808cfd\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"501\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>3-Year: The 2x-leveraged SSO has returned twice as much as the 3x-leveraged SPXL.

Playing (investing) with something (leverage) that shouldn't be messed with.In this article, we try to cover all the bases you may find within the leveraged ETFs pitch, particularly 3x-leveraged NASDAQ-100 and Semiconductor ETFs.PrologueNearly two weeks ago we wrote about 'hedging through shorting', while presenting our short positions in two 3x-leveraged ETFs: ProShares UltraPro QQQ ETF (NASDAQ:TQQQ) and Direxion Daily Semiconductor 3x Bull Shares ETF (SOXL).In this article, we wish to remain within the same theme (hedging through shorting) and elaborate on this topic, particularly touching upon two very important aspects that are (not only related but) crucial to the theme:1) Leveraged ETFs (in general): Buy vs. Sell, Pros and Cons, Risk and Reward.2) Live demonstration of how leveraged ETFs' mechanics work (or don't work...): Specific examples using two pairs of growth/tech leveraged ETFs:Big Tech: ProShares UltraPro QQQ (TQQQ) vs ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ (NASDAQ:SQQQ)Semiconductors: Direxion Daily Semiconductor 3X Bull Shares ETF (SOXL) vs Direxion Daily Semiconductor 3X Bear Shares ETF (SOXS)Leveraged ETFs - Key FeaturesBuy vs SellThis is likely the most important aspect to keep in mind.Since leveraged ETFs use options/derivatives to achieve the magnifying element (leveraging) - any leveraged ETF, by definition, suffers from time decay, aka \"Theta\".Time decay is a measure of the rate of decline in the value of an options contract due to the passage of time. Time decay accelerates as an option's time to expiration draws closer since there's less time to realize a profit from the trade. - [Source]What you need to know:1. The closer an option is to its expiry date - the more rapidly it's losing money (to time decay).2. An \"At The Money\" (\"ATM\") option will receive the biggest premium at the start, but will lose the most, at an accelerating pace, towards the end.3. An \"In The Money\" (\"ITM\") option will receive the smallest premium at the start, and it will lose that premium, at a fairly steady pace, along its life.From a pure Theta perspective, it's categorically better to sell a leveraged ETF than to buy one, because the (loss of) time decay is working in the investor's favor.Pros and ConsLeveraged ETFs are risky instruments.Therefore, there are certain features one must be aware of, and there are certain rules one would be better off adhering to.Leverage (of a benchmark)Principally, all leveraged ETFs are aiming to amplify the return of a non-leveraged instrument, usually an index. For example:It's important to remain within one's comfort zone, and to ensure that the use of a leveraged ETF fits the investor's profile, needs, and risk aversion.VolatilityLooking at the 30-Day Rolling Volatility, you can see that the leverage is amplifying not only the return, but also the volatility. A 3x-leveraged ETF is 3x as volatile as the benchmark it's looking to copy.Semis:Tech:Daily performanceThis is one of the features many investors miss or fail to understand.Leveraged ETFs are trying to mimic the daily performance of a certain benchmark. As such, when you look at the daily (or short-term for that matter) performance - the leveraged ETF is likely to show a very/fairly close return to the leverage it offers (be it a long or a short mechanism). For example:Semis' 1-day price change: Daily returns of SOXL and SOXS are about +3x and -3x, respectively, the daily return of SOXX.Tech's 1-day price change: Daily returns of TQQQ and SQQQ are about +3x and -3x, respectively, the daily return of QQQ.Nonetheless, if we move to a longer period, say 2022, the math isn't as straight as it's when we look at the short-term.Semis' YTD price change: YTD returns of SOXL and SOXS are about +2.65x and -0.07x, respectively, the YTD return of SOXX.Tech's YTD price change: YTD returns of TQQQ and SQQQ are about +2.61x and -2.87x [=(52.59+28.13)/-28.13], respectively, the daily return of QQQ.Over time, and assuming the benchmark/index doesn't move in a (fairly) straight line - the performance of a leveraged ETF may differ significantly from the performance of the underlying benchmark.Risk and RewardPhenomenal/Horrendous Total ReturnsFirst and foremost, as you may well understand, the main risk is the (quite reasonable) scenario of losing a lot of money, quickly.Of course, there's always the flip-side of that coin, and leveraged ETFs may also deliver significant returns (during short periods).If \"Timing is Everything\", generally speaking, it's even more crucial when it comes to buying leveraged ETFs. One must have a high conviction, a near-perfect timing, a short-term trading view/mentality, and an exit (including stop loss) strategy. [We elaborate on these elements at the end of this article.]Below you can see the total returns of the leveraged ETFs we focus on during two very different periods.1) Bear Market: Total Return since Dec. 27, 2021Semis:Tech:Clearly, there's a lot of money to be lost (or made) during a bear market with any instrument, let alone 3x-leveraged ETFs. While the benchmarks (SOXX, QQQ) have lost ~30%, the ultra long ETFs (SOXL, TQQQ) have lost over 3/4 of their value, and the ultra short ETFs (SOXS, SQQQ) have actually gained.Pay attention to the divergence between SOXS (a gain of only 4.5%) and SQQQ (a gain of 59.3%), a result of the recent speedy recovery of Semis (relative to Tech) in recent weeks.2) Bull Market: Total Return from Mar. 23, 2020 to Dec. 27, 2021Semis:Tech:Clearly, there's a lot of money to be lost (or made) during a bull market with any instrument, let alone 3x-leveraged ETFs. While the benchmarks (SOXX, QQQ) have gained low triple-digit %, the ultra long ETFs (SOXL, TQQQ) have delivered stunning returns. At the same time, the ultra short ETFs (SOXS, SQQQ) have practically vanished, leaving investors with (nearly) nothing out of their initial investments.The Longer the Tenure - the Higher the Risk of Losing BigSecondly, and regardless of the (bull or bear) type of market we're in and/or the total return over a certain period, leveraged ETFs are guaranteed to lose value over time. Putting it differently, the longer you stick to these instruments - the higher the odds of a significant drawdown.Below you can see how deep is the decline that leveraged ETFs have (thus may) suffered from (% off-high) over different tenures.3 years: While the long versions (SOXL, TQQQ) have lost 75%-80%, the short versions (SOXS, SQQQ) have lost nearly their entire value.10 years: While the long versions (SOXL, TQQQ) have lost 75%-80%, the short versions (SOXS, SQQQ) have lost nearly their entire value.Although the past decade can definitely be described as a bull market (overall), leveraged ETFs have been hammered, no matter whether they were long or short the underlying benchmarks.This, once again, proves that these instruments can't be held (long position) over the long run. You can be long, but not for too long.\"The Road is Long With Many a Winding Turn\" [Source]Finally, it's important to understand that both time and slope play a major role in determining the return, therefore worthiness, of trading a leveraged ETF.It's very unlikely, almost impossible, for your long (short) leveraged ETF position to deliver a return equal to the (inverse) return of the underlying, non-leveraged, benchmark.To explain this, let's use the S&P 500 and its +/-1/2/3 leveraged versions.Naturally, the 2x- (SSO, SDS) and 3x- (SPXL, SPXU) leveraged versions are 2x and 3x as volatile as the non-leveraged versions (SPY, SH).But does the extra volatility usually/automatically translate into higher returns? Not necessarily.YTD: While the returns of the long versions (SPY, SSO, SPXL) make sense (from a leverage/volatility perspective), those of the short versions (SH, SDS, SPXS) don't.As a matter of fact, the 2x-leveraged SDS and the 3x-leveraged SPXS have delivered nearly the same total returns. If so, why would one pick the more risky SPXS over the less risky SDS!?3-Year: The 2x-leveraged SSO has returned twice as much as the 3x-leveraged SPXL. Moreover, the non-leveraged SPY is only ~4.4% short of SSO's total return.In both cases, the extra risk (volatility) hasn't resulted in a better performance; quite the contrary.5-Year: Once again, the 2x-leveraged SSO has returned more than the 3x-leveraged SPXL. Moreover, the 2x-leveraged SDS hasn't performed a lot better than the 3x-leveraged SPXS.10-Year: The short ETFs, whether leveraged or not, got battered. The long ETFs, however, are looking as good as how you wish a leveraged ETF (that you buy) to be.SPXL and SSO have returned more than 4x and ~2.5x, respectively, what SPY has.Macro Trading Factory - Trading AlertsHere is some of the information that we posted when we issued the most recent trading alerts (\"TAs\") to our subscribers.We are happy to share this information here, as we believe it's relevant and allows for a better understanding of the topic.TA dated Nov. 14, 2022:These TAs were discussed and explained in the piece that we've published Nov. 14.The main message: With the SPX reaching the 4000 mark, we wish to employ some anti-tech/growth hedging again, and by doing so we're (once again) reducing our net long exposure (back to the low 60s% area).Recall that there are two pairs we're referring to:Direxion Daily Semiconductor 3X Bull Shares ETF (SOXL) vs. Direxion Daily Semiconductor 3X Bear Shares ETF (SOXS) >>> We're shorting SOXL, but one may buy SOXS for a similar (though not equivalent) effect.ProShares UltraPro QQQ (TQQQ) vs ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ (SQQQ) >>> We're shorting TQQQ, but one may buy SQQQ for a similar (though not equivalent) effect.Key points to keep in mind:Total Assets Under Management:The 3x-bullish ETFs (SOXL, TQQQ) are attracting a lot more money than their 3x-bearish counterparts (SOXS, SQQQ).Having said that, last week no less than $658M was funneled into SQQQ. Per Bloomberg, that’s the largest-ever inflow for a product that aims to deliver 3x the opposite performance of the US benchmark for major technology companies.When looking at the Daily Price Change the movements are fairly close in absolute terms, i.e. SOXL is moving like SOXS and TQQQ is moving like SQQQ.Nevertheless, things are changing over time.The longer the period - the greater the (potential) divergence.It's not guaranteed, but shorting the 3x-bullish ETFs is likely to deliver a better return than buying the 3x-bearish ETFs.TA dated Nov. 15, 2022:Nothing to add to what we wrote Nov. 14, but still - we would like to show you how even the technical analysis supports the fundamentals and risk aversion mode we see ahead.Recall that it's not advisable to do technical analysis using leveraged instruments. Leverage is just a \"wrapper\" not the base \"package\" which is the non-leveraged instrument.Having that in mind, here are the two, relevant, non-leveraged instruments on which we conduct some technical analysis. [Note that they're very similar in terms of nature and the message they deliver.]SOXX is currently hitting (or just about to hit) three resistance levels:200-DMALong-term down-trending red lineShort-term (horizontal) green lineQQQ is coming close to hit three resistance levels:200-DMALong-term down-trending red lineShort-term (horizontal) green lineEpilogueA leveraged ETF can be your best friend when you get the direction and timing right, but it can be your worst nightmare when you get the direction and timing wrong.We hope that through this article, we've managed to assist you with better understanding the Dr. Jekyll ('Home Run') and Mr. Hyde ('Loaded Gun') natures (characteristics) of these instruments.As we mentioned above, when buying a leveraged ETF, it's very important to keep the pros and cons, risk and reward, in mind but it's not enough. In addition to all these attributes, one musts also have the following:1) High Conviction: Buying a leveraged ETF requires a higher-than-usual conviction, in line with the significantly higher volatility. \"Feeling good\" about the upside potential of an investing idea isn't enough and an in-depth analysis regarding the downside risk is key.If we believe the downside risk of the underlying (non-leveraged) to be significant (usually 20%), we're less likely to move in, even if the upside is way more significant.Unlike a non-leveraged security that we may buy (if the risk/reward is very attractive) even if the downside risk is significant, when it comes to a leveraged ETF downside risk rules (overcoming the risk/reward profile, no matter how attractive the latter is).2) Near-perfect timing: It's very hard to find the \"right moment\", surely the \"perfect timing\". The latter is based on pure luck and only retrospectively we are in position to know whether our timing was good or not.Therefore, when we say \"near perfect timing\" we actually refer to maximum hesitation and patience. Take your time, don't rush, and let the stabilization, consolidation, and/or capitulation periods show their pretty, and more important: less risky, face.In line with that, it's strongly advisable to build a position involving a leveraged ETF over time. Indeed, it's likely going to be a relatively short time, in order to match the \"hit the iron while it's hot\" concept. Still, it's better to 'hit' a leveraged 'iron' several times rather than only once or twice.3) Short-term trading view/mentality: We believe that investors mustn't \"get married\" with any position, surely not with a leveraged ETF.Any position has a (stretched) valuation where it warrants a sale, and when it comes to leveraged ETFs - quick \"love affairs\" is the name of the game.Leveraged ETFs aren't the type of instrument you wish to get older with. They are only suitable for certain times and there's no reason to extend their hospitality for too long.Best is to pre-set levels and targets, and once those get fulfilled - kiss the leveraged ETF goodbye. No hard feelings, and no need to shed tears.4) An exit (including stop loss) strategy:Not every encounter we have in life results in a pleasant experience. Some encounters are very enjoyable/profitable, some less, and a few may suck big time.The idea is to minimize the latter type and to avoid stretching the former type.If it works out quickly - say goodbye quickly.If you still wish to examine the relationship - let it be, as long as the examining period doesn't come at the expense of other, possibly better, encounters.But if it looks as if there's no future here - there's really no reason to stick around. Cut your losses and move on.Obviously, easier said (or written) than done, but here's an example of all the trades we suggested involving SOXL, one of the leveraged ETF we were active with this year on both LONG and SHORT fronts.I don't think we had perfect timing, but we did have pretty good timing.More importantly, we had a high conviction [Note: different times = different directions!], we surely had/have a short-term trading view/mentality, and we certainly didn't/don't fall in love with the position - be it a LONG or a SHORT one.Last but not least, keep in mind that we use leveraged ETFs as part of our HEDGING strategy, which means that there are LONG positions (we wish to protect) against the SHORT positions (if and when we open such positions).This isn't something we suggest the average investor do without having the necessary ingredients (knowledge, experience, guts/risk aversion) and tools (risk analysis, portfolio management, modeling) to support such an activity.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":704,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9984669126,"gmtCreate":1667617474466,"gmtModify":1676537945457,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"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/post/9984669126","repostId":"9984617640","repostType":1,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":590,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9931208315,"gmtCreate":1662461156537,"gmtModify":1676537064969,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9931208315","repostId":"2265058050","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2265058050","kind":"highlight","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":1662454463,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2265058050?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-06 16:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tech Workers Left Hanging As Sea E-Commerce Arm Shopee Rescinds Job Offers","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2265058050","media":"Reuters","summary":"Southeast Asia's largest e-commerce firm Shopee has rescinded dozens of job offers in the past two w","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Southeast Asia&#39;s largest e-commerce firm Shopee has rescinded dozens of job offers in the past two weeks, sources said, a move that began shortly after parent company <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SE\">Sea Ltd</a>    reported widening losses and sharply slower revenue growth.</p><p>Four people interviewed by Reuters who have participated in a WeChat group of some 60 people that was set up to discuss Shopee&#39;s withdrawal of offers said their offers were pulled just days before they were due to begin work.</p><p>One 27-year-old engineer who asked that only his first name Wang be used said his call came a week after arriving in Singapore, having quit a job in Shanghai with TikTok owner Bytedance.</p><p>&#34;I thought it was a scam call ... until I realised it was a widespread rescinding of offers by Shopee,&#34; said Wang, who had by then paid an advance to rent a house.</p><p>Singapore-based Sea said it had recently cancelled some offers at Shopee but declined to say how many.</p><p>&#34;Due to adjustments to hiring plans on some tech teams, a number of roles at Shopee are no longer available.

The electric vehicle company delivered 5,100 ES6s, 1,828 EC6s and 1,684 ES8s which are all sport utility vehicles. Additionally, NIO delivered a massive 4,349 ET7s, the firm’s first sedan product that started to sell in China only in March.</p><p>NIO’s delivery growth in June has been driven by two models especially: The ET7 which has seen month-over-month delivery growth of a massive 154.8% and the ES6 which saw a delivery increase of 73.7% on a monthly basis. NIO’s ES6 model still has the largest delivery share (currently 39.3%) and NIO produces by far the largest number of SUVs in the ES6 product line. But because of the surge in demand for electric vehicle sedans, going forward, the ET7 is set to replace NIO’s ES6 as the most important vehicle in NIO’s product portfolio. With NIO’s ET5 deliveries expected to start in September, the electric vehicle start-up could generate about half of its deliveries and sales from sedans, not SUVs, by year-end.</p><p>The share of ET7 deliveries has consistently increased throughout the second-quarter as well: in April, May and June, the delivery shares of the ET7 were 13.7%, 24.3% and 33.6%. Considering that NIO will add sedan volume through the ET5, especially in the fourth quarter, sedan deliveries are likely going to be the biggest driver for NIO’s delivery growth in the second half of 2022 and beyond.</p><p><b>NIO has long-term potential, but short-term setbacks should be expected</b></p><p>NIO’s valuation today is much cheaper than a year ago. During the pandemic, shares of NIO traded as high as $65. But investors appear to have stopped caring much about NIO’s delivery growth prospects lately which is understandable considering that EV deliveries have slowed down industry-wide in the first quarter. While short-term setbacks have to be expected, especially regarding new COVID-19 outbreaks in China, NIO’s growth prospects are attractive in the long term.</p><p>NIO is expected to grow revenues 60% this year to $9.07B, indicating a price-to-sales ratio of 3.8X. The forward P-S ratio, based on expected sales of $15.96B, implies a P-S ratio of 2.2X and revenue growth of 76%... so the market even expects an acceleration in revenue growth in FY 2023.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f8783ef7161e7a0ff94ffa153c81a2a\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p><b>Risks with NIO</b></p><p>The biggest risk for NIO, as I see it, is a volatile short-term delivery pattern that makes it hard for the market to predict NIO’s delivery potential with any kind of accuracy. COVID-19 shutdowns are still a threat to electric vehicle manufacturers as well because they could impact manufacturing hubs that produce electric vehicles or dampen demand for NIO’s products. Xi’an, a city of 13M, was partially shut down on Wednesday after a few cases of a new COVID-19 variant have been detected. China’s heavy-handed approach to mitigating the spread of COVID-19 and its variants is a big risk for NIO’s delivery potential as well as the stock in the short term. What would change my mind about NIO is if delivery growth slowed down and the firm&#39;s sedan ramp started to disappoint.</p><p><b>Final thoughts</b></p><p>NIO’s June ramp in production and deliveries was surprisingly good. The surge in ET7 deliveries is the key take-away for investors, because deliveries started only three months ago and sedans now already account for a third of NIO’s delivery volume. Considering that ET5 deliveries are set to start in September, I believe NIO’s long-term delivery potential, especially in the sedan market, is underrated. However, since NIO faces uncertain short-term delivery prospects due to new COVID-19 outbreaks in China, I have a neutral opinion on NIO.</p></body></html>","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>NIO: June Deliveries Show Growth Making A Comeback</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\">\nNIO: June Deliveries Show Growth Making A Comeback\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-07-09 11:29 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4522180-nio-growth-is-making-a-comeback?source=content_type%3Aall%7Cfirst_level_url%3Aportfolio%7Csection%3Aportfolio_content_unit%7Csection_asset%3Alatest%7Cline%3A58><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryAfter months of weakness, NIO’s deliveries soared back strongly in June.ET7 sedan deliveries increased 155.7% month over month and now represent a third of all of NIO's product deliveries.ET5 ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4522180-nio-growth-is-making-a-comeback?source=content_type%3Aall%7Cfirst_level_url%3Aportfolio%7Csection%3Aportfolio_content_unit%7Csection_asset%3Alatest%7Cline%3A58\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"09866":"蔚来-SW","NIO":"蔚来","NIO.SI":"蔚来"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4522180-nio-growth-is-making-a-comeback?source=content_type%3Aall%7Cfirst_level_url%3Aportfolio%7Csection%3Aportfolio_content_unit%7Csection_asset%3Alatest%7Cline%3A58","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1106697268","content_text":"SummaryAfter months of weakness, NIO’s deliveries soared back strongly in June.ET7 sedan deliveries increased 155.7% month over month and now represent a third of all of NIO's product deliveries.ET5 and ET7 production are set to exceed volume production of the ES6 this year.NIO's (NYSE:NIO) first-quarter production and delivery performance was greatly impacted by a variety of factors, including Chinese holidays and COVID-related shutdowns that limited factory output levels. In June, however, NIO experienced a surge in deliveries due to factories coming back online and accelerating demand for NIO’s first sedan product, the ET7. While COVID-19 shutdowns remain a significant risk factor going forward, a recovery in delivery volumes could drive an upwards revaluation of NIO’s shares.Why NIO’s growth will be determined by sedan production going forwardNIO submitted its delivery card for June last week which revealed that the electric vehicle manufacturer delivered 12,961 electric vehicles, showing 60.3% year-over-year growth.

Notable users such as Donald Trump (currently banned from the platform) and Elon Musk have made extremely productive use of the platform and used it to expand their reach and influence. In this article, I&#39;ll explain why there are two big questions that matter for the decision to own stock in Twitter:</p><p>- Can it be made profitable?</p><p>- Will being profitable ruin the company?</p><p>Elon Musk&#39;s offer to buy Twitter for $54.20 per share confirms that the answer to the first question is &#34;yes,&#34; and the answer to the second question is &#34;no.&#34; So now that the stock is effectively &#34;de-risked,&#34; shareholders should hold on and not be willing to sell at this price or anything less than say $100 per share.</p><p><b>Twitter&#39;s History in a Nutshell</b></p><p>Twitter started as a &#34;micro-blogging&#34; site in 2006 by Evan Williams, Jack Dorsey and others. The site became more and more well-known over time, and reached 100 million users per day in 2012. Although growing, it was something of a corporate curiosity: the company was not profitable, and unusual for these situations, founder Jack Dorsey basically left to start another company &#34;Square&#34;, now known as &#34;Block&#34; (SQ).</p><p>After some internal intrigues, Dorsey returned as CEO in 2015 but without giving up his role at Square/Block. Twitter went public in 2013 at an &#34;IPO price&#34; of $25 but traded that day up to $44 per share. Investors have suffered poor returns ever since as the company struggled to obtain profitability:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cb94f60a78c5ab5cb73a019721a717db\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"331\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Share Price and Profits (Koyfin, Author)</p><p>So over the last nine years, Twitter became one of the most influential companies and mediums of communication on Earth. But no one could be sure what it meant to own stock in the company. In November, Dorsey stepped away from his role as CEO and Twitter executive Parag Agrawal took over.</p><p>Can Twitter Make Money? Yes.</p><p>As you can see in the chart above, around halfway through the Trump administration Twitter found a way to produce net income on flat revenue. The last year&#39;s lack of net income is actually marred by the one-time event of an $800 million lawsuit settlement, so it&#39;s actually more profitable than it appears.</p><p>The incredible strength of software and tech business models lies in their ability to not only grow earnings without additional capital but also in the increasing returns to scale of additional revenues. The cost of running Twitter for say 110 million users isn&#39;t much greater than the cost to run it for 100 million users, so any additional revenue &#34;drops straight to the bottom line.&#34; (This is an oversimplification, but it&#39;s still useful.)</p><p>To see what I mean, look at the Income Statement from Twitter&#39;s Shareholder Letter:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/651814d49f5de822d55066b4689f1781\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"421\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Twitter Income Statement (Twitter)</p><p>We clearly see the $765 million line item for Twitter&#39;s share of the settlement mentioned above. So without that settlement, &#34;Total Costs and Expenses&#34; were $4,805 million in 2021 compared to $3,690 million in 2021 - so <i>costs increased of 30%</i>. At the same time, revenue increased year over from $3,716 million to $5,077 million for a<i>gain in revenues of 36%</i>.

Last month, he bought 9% of the company&#39;s stock, planned to take a seat on the board of directors, and then withdrew from consideration.</p><p>Now Musk has made an offer to buy the whole company, and it&#39;s worth reading the whole test of his filing with the SEC:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1556fe029f6438ac238ca752b1d3d7b1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"367\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Musk&#39;s Offer to buy Twitter (SEC)</p><p>Musk has been selling stock in Tesla(TSLA) recently, but his 17% stake is still worth approximately $175 billion - so he should be &#34;good for&#34; the $40 billion or so required to buy the rest of Twitter. (Recall that he already owns 9% of the company).</p><p>There are a few ways to think about his offer:</p><p>1. He wants to take over the company and run it</p><p>2. He wants to draw attention to his ideas about how to run Twitter</p><p>3. He&#39;s bluffing about buying Twitter and just wants attention</p><p>I&#39;ll skip over analyzing number 3 because it requires an assumption of bad faith I&#39;m not willing to make, and focus on 1 and 2. If 1 is true and Musk thinks the company is valuable, then maybe someone else can unlock that value and shareholders&#39; gains don&#39;t have to &#34;top out&#34; at the offer price of $54.20?</p><p>If 2 is true and Musk wants to draw attention to the way he would run Twitter, this is something of the &#34;best of all possible&#34; worlds for Twitter shareholders. They&#39;ll get the benefit of Musk&#39;s ideas, but they won&#39;t give up any upside. This is also a great strategy for Musk himself. He can bring the focus of executives, directors and shareholders to his strategy, and possibly gain influence or place someone in the C-Suite or board of directors - but he doesn&#39;t have to pay a buy-out premium. He gets the benefit of forcing the company&#39;s hand to increase the value of his investment, but he doesn&#39;t have to pay a premium for it!</p><p>Shareholders Can Sit Pretty - Don&#39;t Sell!</p><p>For the reasons described above, I think it&#39;s clear that the value of Twitter is starting to poke out from under the surface. It remains to be seen whether the current management team can deliver, or whether it will require Musk&#39;s influence to make changes. In either case, there&#39;s little reason for outside shareholders to give up future upside by selling their shares in the market, or by supporting Musk&#39;s buyout offer.</p><p>If Musk&#39;s offer is not accepted, I would expect shares to fall in price for the time being. But that doesn&#39;t mean the value of the business has declined. I would consider that a good time to buy.</p></body></html>","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>Twitter Is Worth More Than Elon Musk's $54 Per Share Offer</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\">\nTwitter Is Worth More Than Elon Musk's $54 Per Share Offer\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-15 09:46 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4501410-twitter-is-worth-more-than-musks-offer><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryTwitter has struggled to grow into profitability but is now turning a corner.Musk's interest shows the value of the business is real and growing.But if he's right - why should shareholders give...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4501410-twitter-is-worth-more-than-musks-offer\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"TWTR":"Twitter"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4501410-twitter-is-worth-more-than-musks-offer","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1143171275","content_text":"SummaryTwitter has struggled to grow into profitability but is now turning a corner.Musk's interest shows the value of the business is real and growing.But if he's right - why should shareholders give away all the upside to one buyer?I've been an active Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) user for years, but I was never a shareholder. Notable users such as Donald Trump (currently banned from the platform) and Elon Musk have made extremely productive use of the platform and used it to expand their reach and influence. In this article, I'll explain why there are two big questions that matter for the decision to own stock in Twitter:- Can it be made profitable?- Will being profitable ruin the company?Elon Musk's offer to buy Twitter for $54.20 per share confirms that the answer to the first question is \"yes,\" and the answer to the second question is \"no.\" So now that the stock is effectively \"de-risked,\" shareholders should hold on and not be willing to sell at this price or anything less than say $100 per share.Twitter's History in a NutshellTwitter started as a \"micro-blogging\" site in 2006 by Evan Williams, Jack Dorsey and others. The site became more and more well-known over time, and reached 100 million users per day in 2012. Although growing, it was something of a corporate curiosity: the company was not profitable, and unusual for these situations, founder Jack Dorsey basically left to start another company \"Square\", now known as \"Block\" (SQ).After some internal intrigues, Dorsey returned as CEO in 2015 but without giving up his role at Square/Block. Twitter went public in 2013 at an \"IPO price\" of $25 but traded that day up to $44 per share. Investors have suffered poor returns ever since as the company struggled to obtain profitability:Share Price and Profits (Koyfin, Author)So over the last nine years, Twitter became one of the most influential companies and mediums of communication on Earth. But no one could be sure what it meant to own stock in the company. In November, Dorsey stepped away from his role as CEO and Twitter executive Parag Agrawal took over.Can Twitter Make Money? Yes.As you can see in the chart above, around halfway through the Trump administration Twitter found a way to produce net income on flat revenue. The last year's lack of net income is actually marred by the one-time event of an $800 million lawsuit settlement, so it's actually more profitable than it appears.The incredible strength of software and tech business models lies in their ability to not only grow earnings without additional capital but also in the increasing returns to scale of additional revenues. The cost of running Twitter for say 110 million users isn't much greater than the cost to run it for 100 million users, so any additional revenue \"drops straight to the bottom line.\" (This is an oversimplification, but it's still useful.)To see what I mean, look at the Income Statement from Twitter's Shareholder Letter:Twitter Income Statement (Twitter)We clearly see the $765 million line item for Twitter's share of the settlement mentioned above. So without that settlement, \"Total Costs and Expenses\" were $4,805 million in 2021 compared to $3,690 million in 2021 - so costs increased of 30%. At the same time, revenue increased year over from $3,716 million to $5,077 million for again in revenues of 36%. To the extent that this trend can keep growing, future profitability is far greater than the $272 million income from operations (without the lawsuit) we see in last year's numbers.Even if Twitter had reported net income of $250 million instead of a loss of $221 million, it would still seem expensive at a market cap of $37 billion times earnings (148x earnings). Buying at those prices indicates expectations of much higher profitability in the future, and I think that's very reasonable.But will Twitter Stay Fun? Yes.Now that we know Twitter can begin earning net income, the next question is whether or not \"the magic\" of Twitter will remain and keep it such an essential part of the marketplace. After all, others have talked about starting alternative social networks geared to conservative voices such as the \"Truth Social\" offering of Digital World Acquisition (DWAC) and the growing reach of TikTok (owned by ByteDance).Despite a number of challenges, it seems like Twitter is staying relevant and vital. Twitter suspended Donald Trump (its most influential!)user on January 8, 2021, but as you can see from this chart in the company's Shareholder Letter, both revenue and the number of users have increased from the fourth quarter of 2020 (when Trump was still on the platform) to the fourth quarter of 2022 (when he'd been off for almost a year). So Twitter's business is clearly bigger and more durable than just the effect Trump had on its growth.Twitter Year-over-Year results (Twitter Shareholder Letter)Musk has also become an increasingly active user of the platform, as you can see in this article from Visual Capitalist, which also reviews some of his best-known Tweets:Elon Musk's Tweets by Year (VisualCapitalist.com, Carmen Ang)While looking at Musk's activity alone doesn't prove anything, it seems like there are plenty of reasons to think Twitter remains vital.

It means there&#39;s never a bad time to invest, and always having money available, even small amounts, is a good strategy for everyone.</p><p>By the time working Americans are ready to retire, the following pair of hot growth stocks have the potential to make those who invested in them, wealthy.</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">Nvidia</a></h2><p>Shares of graphics chipmaker <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\"><b>Nvidia</b> </a> are suffering now due to the general sector rotation out of technology stocks and the high-flyers that trounced the S&amp;P 500 last year. Nvidia&#39;s stock surged 125% in 2021 but is down 16% so far this year.</p><p>No matter, investors should view this pullback as a buying opportunity even though the stock looks expensive by traditional metrics. Despite trading at 76 times trailing earnings, 47 times next year&#39;s estimates, and 87 times the free cash flow it produces -- even after its haircut -- the premium Nvidia commands is warranted because its business remains white-hot.</p><p>While gaming is still the chipmaker&#39;s primary moneymaker, responsible for 45% of total Q3 sales, Nvidia expects its data center business to overtake that segment by 2025. It already generates billions of dollars in revenue every year, with data center sales soaring 55% in the third quarter (period ended Oct. 31) to hit $2.9 billion. And following its $7 billion acquisition of Mellanox in 2020, Nvidia is now positioned as a leading supplier for networking hardware.</p><p>Those two segments alone would be enough to justify Nvidia&#39;s lofty valuation, but it has other equally exciting opportunities, even if they don&#39;t yet approach the level of gaming and data centers.</p><p>Nvidia&#39;s professional visualization segment, for example, got a big boost from the pandemic, which created outsize demand for high-end mobile workstations that offer real-time rendering capabilities. It utilizes artificial intelligence and virtual reality to help simulate real-life designs. Revenue surged 144% year over year as growth in desktop and notebook workstation GPUs rose due to enterprises deploying new systems to allow for hybrid work situations.</p><p>It cuts across all industries, too, including automotive, media and entertainment, architectural engineering, oil and gas, and medical imaging.</p><p>Wall Street forecasts revenue will triple to over $56 billion by the middle of the decade, helping to give Nvidia a multitrillion-dollar valuation. The chipmaker is the closest thing an investor can find to a set-and-forget stock for their retirement portfolio.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AFRM\">Affirm</a></h2><p>Buying on installment is an old idea that&#39;s new again, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AFRM\"><b>Affirm</b> </a> is one of the leading names in the buy now, pay later (BNPL) space. Partnerships with the likes of <b>Amazon</b> and <b>Shopify</b> (NYSE:SHOP) open up vast new terrain for the lending outfit that&#39;s already starting to pay off.</p><p>Fiscal first-quarter earnings for the September period saw the number of active customers more than double to 8.7 million from the year-ago quarter and rise 22% sequentially. Amazon brings some 200 million potential customers to the table, while Shopify adds an additional 118 million.</p><p>Not everyone will take advantage of the BNPL opportunity, but it gives Affirm a much broader audience to tap. Shopify has been a partner since July 2020, and active merchants participating in Affirm&#39;s Shop Pay Installments program grew from 6,500 to 102,000 in just one year, representing a 15-fold increase.</p><p>The Amazon deal is new, but it could be a game-changer for Affirm.</p><p>Of course, there are risks involved. Privately held Klarna is the biggest player in the space, with some 250,000 merchants on board and an estimated $78 billion in global sales volume. <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a></b> has its own BNPL service that it launched in 2020, and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SQ\">Block</a></b> just acquired Afterpay, giving the BNPL company its own massive opportunity to expand its universe of customers.</p><p>Affirm also still carries a premium price tag like Nvidia, even though its stock got cut down by a third in the first month of the new year and has lost 64% of its value from its November highs. It&#39;s still producing operating losses while trading at 19 times its sales.</p><p>Analysts are forecasting Affirm will see revenue grow 10 times its fiscal 2021 level to hit $3.5 billion by 2025, which would represent a 74% compound annual growth rate. New regulatory measures on BNPL here and abroad could impact growth, but it&#39;s a wide-open area for Affirm, and investors should feel comfortable buying this fintech stock for the long haul.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

AffirmBuying on installment is an old idea that's new again, and Affirm  is one of the leading names in the buy now, pay later (BNPL) space. Partnerships with the likes of Amazon and Shopify (NYSE:SHOP) open up vast new terrain for the lending outfit that's already starting to pay off.Fiscal first-quarter earnings for the September period saw the number of active customers more than double to 8.7 million from the year-ago quarter and rise 22% sequentially. Amazon brings some 200 million potential customers to the table, while Shopify adds an additional 118 million.Not everyone will take advantage of the BNPL opportunity, but it gives Affirm a much broader audience to tap. Shopify has been a partner since July 2020, and active merchants participating in Affirm's Shop Pay Installments program grew from 6,500 to 102,000 in just one year, representing a 15-fold increase.The Amazon deal is new, but it could be a game-changer for Affirm.Of course, there are risks involved. Privately held Klarna is the biggest player in the space, with some 250,000 merchants on board and an estimated $78 billion in global sales volume. PayPal has its own BNPL service that it launched in 2020, and Block just acquired Afterpay, giving the BNPL company its own massive opportunity to expand its universe of customers.Affirm also still carries a premium price tag like Nvidia, even though its stock got cut down by a third in the first month of the new year and has lost 64% of its value from its November highs. It's still producing operating losses while trading at 19 times its sales.Analysts are forecasting Affirm will see revenue grow 10 times its fiscal 2021 level to hit $3.5 billion by 2025, which would represent a 74% compound annual growth rate. New regulatory measures on BNPL here and abroad could impact growth, but it's a wide-open area for Affirm, and investors should feel comfortable buying this fintech stock for the long haul.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":300,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9001665120,"gmtCreate":1641249877860,"gmtModify":1676533586959,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9001665120","repostId":"691274673","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":691274673,"gmtCreate":1640216888125,"gmtModify":1676532423705,"author":{"id":"3582057972137750","authorId":"3582057972137750","name":"lcy12345","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/60aee26f012bbdfb2a9fa32495e56508","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582057972137750","authorIdStr":"3582057972137750"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$</a>oh no, I missed the below 900 train!! :-((( congrats to everyone who got it at such a steal!!&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$</a>oh no, I missed the below 900 train!! :-((( congrats to everyone who got it at such a steal!!&nbsp;","text":"$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$oh no, I missed the below 900 train!! :-((( congrats to everyone who got it at such a steal!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":2,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/691274673","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":0,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":231,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":863057001,"gmtCreate":1632348475103,"gmtModify":1676530756643,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Will bubble it higher...&nbsp;","listText":"Will bubble it higher...&nbsp;","text":"Will bubble it higher...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/863057001","repostId":"2169572196","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":334,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":885088882,"gmtCreate":1631745699146,"gmtModify":1676530621628,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hope it is a nice pullback","listText":"Hope it is a nice pullback","text":"Hope it is a nice pullback","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/885088882","repostId":"1148341685","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1148341685","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631660884,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1148341685?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-15 07:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. stocks close lower on worries over recovery, corporate tax hikes","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1148341685","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wall Street lost ground on Tuesday as economic uncertainties and the increasing","content":"<p>NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wall Street lost ground on Tuesday as economic uncertainties and the increasing likelihood of a corporate tax rate hike dampened investor sentiment and prompted a broad sell-off despite signs of easing inflation.</p>\n<p>Optimism faded throughout the session, reversing an initial rally following the Labor Department’s consumer price index report.

The announcements will come just days after a federal judge ruled that Apple <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">$(AAPL)$</a> could no longer prohibit app developers from offering alternate payment options beyond Apple's own in-app payment service, in a signal of the increasing backlash against the dominance of big technology companies.</p>\n<p>But the average iPhone user is likely unconcerned with the machinations of in-app payments, and they will be Apple's target audience as the company rolls out its new lineup. The phones are expected to feature improvements to camera and video functions but have a similar design to last year's models.</p>\n<p>The rumored upgrades mark perhaps more incremental improvements to the iPhone, unlike a year ago, when Apple brought 5G connectivity to its handsets for the first time and changed the phone's design. The iPhone 12 lineup has been selling well, and analysts seem generally upbeat about potential demand for the iPhone 13 family as well, despite what could be a lack of blockbuster feature upgrades.</p>\n<p>\"Given an improved economy, expanded 5G coverage, and low 5G smartphone ownership, we expect the iPhone 13 family to receive an enthusiastic reception,\" wrote Monness, Crespi, Hardt &amp; Co. analyst Brian White.</p>\n<p>Here's what to watch for at Tuesday's event, which kicks off virtually at 1 p.m. ET.</p>\n<p><b>iPhone</b></p>\n<p>The iPhone has been the centerpiece of Apple's fall events and should be again this year.</p>\n<p>The company is expected to roll out four new phones, just as it did last year, featuring a similar design. One possible change from a visual standpoint is a smaller notch on the top of the phones, but otherwise the devices shouldn't look too different from their predecessors. MacRumors predicts that some rumored changes, like the disappearance of the Lightning charging port or the return of a fingerprint sensor, won't actually manifest in the upcoming models.</p>\n<p>Apple isn't likely to change the sizes of its phones this year, according to MacRumors, which is looking for the company to roll out a 5.4-inch iPhone mini, a 6.1-inch iPhone, a 6.1-inch iPhone Pro and a 6.7-inch iPhone Pro Max.</p>\n<p>The biggest improvements could come to the camera. Apple is reportedly planning to introduce a video version of its Portrait Mode setting, according to Bloomberg News, which would let users capture videos with blurred backgrounds. The company is also looking to add a ProRes recording capability that would allow for high-resolution footage as well as new photo-diting functions that would let people make pictures warmer or cooler, without affecting the white tones, per the report.</p>\n<p>There's also been talk of potential satellite capabilities in the next iPhones. Shares of satellite-communications company Globalstar Inc. surged after a report indicated that Apple was including low-earth orbit <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LEO\">$(LEO)$</a> satellite communications so that users would be able to place calls or send messages without 4G or 5G cellular connections, but a second report suggested that Apple may limit this feature to emergency communications.</p>\n<p><b>Augmented reality</b></p>\n<p>Apple's landing page for the Sept. 14 event contained an Easter egg for iPhone users, allowing them to click on the Apple logo and view it in augmented reality on top of their surroundings. That suggests to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EFFE\">Global X</a> research analyst Pedro Palandrani that the company could be planning a significant AR announcement.</p>\n<p>The \"easy answer\" is that Apple would introduce a new AR feature for the iPhone, but there's \"not much to do there at this point,\" Palandrani told MarketWatch. \"I wouldn't be surprised if we get to see some Apple glasses,\" he continued, referring to the oft-discussed possibility that Apple would develop a form of AR glasses. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> Inc. (FB) recently unveiled its own pair of smart glasses.</p>\n<p>Whether Apple would be able to sell the hypothetical smart glasses immediately remains a question for Palandrani, given supply constraints impacting the broader consumer-electronics industry.</p>\n<p>\"Maybe they don't have the ability at this time to mass manufacture that type of device,\" he said, but in the near term, it's \"certainly a possibility.\"</p>\n<p>Evercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani wrote that he sees \"a LONG SHOT that we finally get an AR/VR product announcement.\"</p>\n<p><b>Apple Watch</b></p>\n<p>Apple could be planning a design change to its next Apple Watch, as rumors indicate the company is looking to slightly increase its screen sizes and make the casing style more similar to what's seen on the iPhone 12 line.</p>\n<p>The Apple Watch 7 could come in 41-millimeter and 45-millimeter screen sizes, according to Bloomberg News, up from 40 millimeters and 44 millimeters currently. Bloomberg isn't anticipating any meaningful health upgrades, noting that a body-temperature scanner may not show up until next year's models come out.</p>\n<p>The devices are expected to have a flat-edged look, according to MacRumors, similar to what the iPhone 12 line sports.

The announcements will come just days after a federal judge ruled that Apple $(AAPL)$ could no longer prohibit app developers from offering alternate payment options beyond Apple's own in-app payment service, in a signal of the increasing backlash against the dominance of big technology companies.\nBut the average iPhone user is likely unconcerned with the machinations of in-app payments, and they will be Apple's target audience as the company rolls out its new lineup. The phones are expected to feature improvements to camera and video functions but have a similar design to last year's models.\nThe rumored upgrades mark perhaps more incremental improvements to the iPhone, unlike a year ago, when Apple brought 5G connectivity to its handsets for the first time and changed the phone's design. The iPhone 12 lineup has been selling well, and analysts seem generally upbeat about potential demand for the iPhone 13 family as well, despite what could be a lack of blockbuster feature upgrades.\n\"Given an improved economy, expanded 5G coverage, and low 5G smartphone ownership, we expect the iPhone 13 family to receive an enthusiastic reception,\" wrote Monness, Crespi, Hardt & Co. analyst Brian White.\nHere's what to watch for at Tuesday's event, which kicks off virtually at 1 p.m. ET.\niPhone\nThe iPhone has been the centerpiece of Apple's fall events and should be again this year.\nThe company is expected to roll out four new phones, just as it did last year, featuring a similar design. One possible change from a visual standpoint is a smaller notch on the top of the phones, but otherwise the devices shouldn't look too different from their predecessors. MacRumors predicts that some rumored changes, like the disappearance of the Lightning charging port or the return of a fingerprint sensor, won't actually manifest in the upcoming models.\nApple isn't likely to change the sizes of its phones this year, according to MacRumors, which is looking for the company to roll out a 5.4-inch iPhone mini, a 6.1-inch iPhone, a 6.1-inch iPhone Pro and a 6.7-inch iPhone Pro Max.\nThe biggest improvements could come to the camera. Apple is reportedly planning to introduce a video version of its Portrait Mode setting, according to Bloomberg News, which would let users capture videos with blurred backgrounds. The company is also looking to add a ProRes recording capability that would allow for high-resolution footage as well as new photo-diting functions that would let people make pictures warmer or cooler, without affecting the white tones, per the report.\nThere's also been talk of potential satellite capabilities in the next iPhones. Shares of satellite-communications company Globalstar Inc. surged after a report indicated that Apple was including low-earth orbit $(LEO)$ satellite communications so that users would be able to place calls or send messages without 4G or 5G cellular connections, but a second report suggested that Apple may limit this feature to emergency communications.\nAugmented reality\nApple's landing page for the Sept. 14 event contained an Easter egg for iPhone users, allowing them to click on the Apple logo and view it in augmented reality on top of their surroundings. That suggests to Global X research analyst Pedro Palandrani that the company could be planning a significant AR announcement.\nThe \"easy answer\" is that Apple would introduce a new AR feature for the iPhone, but there's \"not much to do there at this point,\" Palandrani told MarketWatch. \"I wouldn't be surprised if we get to see some Apple glasses,\" he continued, referring to the oft-discussed possibility that Apple would develop a form of AR glasses. Facebook Inc. (FB) recently unveiled its own pair of smart glasses.\nWhether Apple would be able to sell the hypothetical smart glasses immediately remains a question for Palandrani, given supply constraints impacting the broader consumer-electronics industry.\n\"Maybe they don't have the ability at this time to mass manufacture that type of device,\" he said, but in the near term, it's \"certainly a possibility.\"\nEvercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani wrote that he sees \"a LONG SHOT that we finally get an AR/VR product announcement.\"\nApple Watch\nApple could be planning a design change to its next Apple Watch, as rumors indicate the company is looking to slightly increase its screen sizes and make the casing style more similar to what's seen on the iPhone 12 line.\nThe Apple Watch 7 could come in 41-millimeter and 45-millimeter screen sizes, according to Bloomberg News, up from 40 millimeters and 44 millimeters currently. Bloomberg isn't anticipating any meaningful health upgrades, noting that a body-temperature scanner may not show up until next year's models come out.\nThe devices are expected to have a flat-edged look, according to MacRumors, similar to what the iPhone 12 line sports. There were indications that Apple faced production issues with the Apple Watch 7, mainly due to the new design, but MacRumors cited a recent report from noted Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who said that Apple has resolved its issues and still looks to be on track with its planned launch.\nAirPods\nApple could also be set to launch a refreshed version of its entry-level AirPods headphones. Beyond the base model, Apple offers a Pro version of the earbuds and a set of high-quality, over-the-ear headphones, and Apple may borrow some features from those as it jazzes up its regular AirPods.\nTo start, the company is expected to change up the design a bit, putting a shorter stem on the new AirPods, similar to what's seen on the AirPods Pro. A CNet roundup notes that Apple is rumored to be planning for the introduction of spatial-audio technology to the basic AirPods.\nApple may intend to leave out noise-cancelling functions on this upcoming AirPods model, per a report from Bloomberg News that came out late last year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":137,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9962501693,"gmtCreate":1669796779912,"gmtModify":1676538245111,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9962501693","repostId":"1106229901","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1106229901","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1669821685,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1106229901?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-11-30 23:21","market":"us","language":"en","title":"SQQQ, TQQQ: Leveraged ETFs Can Be A (Short-Term) Home Run Or A (Long-Term) Loaded Gun","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1106229901","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryLeveraged ETFs are explosive securities with the ability/potential to give your portfolio a b","content":"<html><head></head><body><h3>Summary</h3><ul><li>Leveraged ETFs are explosive securities with the ability/potential to give your portfolio a big boost (&#39;home run&#39;) or to cause severe damage (&#39;loaded gun&#39;).</li><li>&#39;Home run&#39; allows the batter (investor) to make a complete circuit (whole), and score a big r(et)u(r)n (as well as hedging) for the team (portfolio).</li><li>&#39;Loaded gun&#39; refers to something dangerous, an accident waiting to happen.

As such, when you look at the daily (or short-term for that matter) performance - the leveraged ETF is likely to show a very/fairly close return to the leverage it offers (be it a long or a short mechanism). For example:</p><p>Semis&#39; 1-day price change: Daily returns of SOXL and SOXS are about +3x and -3x, respectively, the daily return of SOXX.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/08ca1f40fcd06f5ad9537f02af6ffe76\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Tech&#39;s 1-day price change: Daily returns of TQQQ and SQQQ are about +3x and -3x, respectively, the daily return of QQQ.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a55a842f81460cba9dc1a6938d472d92\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Nonetheless, if we move to a longer period, say 2022, the math isn&#39;t as straight as it&#39;s when we look at the short-term.</p><p>Semis&#39; YTD price change: YTD returns of SOXL and SOXS are about +2.65x and -0.07x, respectively, the YTD return of SOXX.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92d1ddfcba6984ae9d30559901dfc14c\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Tech&#39;s YTD price change: YTD returns of TQQQ and SQQQ are about +2.61x and -2.87x [=(52.59+28.13)/-28.13], respectively, the daily return of QQQ.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/411ddaf98aa8aa072f20f9953bac8e26\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Over time, and assuming the benchmark/index doesn&#39;t move in a (fairly) straight line - the performance of a leveraged ETF may differ significantly from the performance of the underlying benchmark.</p><h3>Risk and Reward</h3><ul><li>Phenomenal/Horrendous Total Returns</li></ul><p>First and foremost, as you may well understand, the main risk is the (quite reasonable) scenario of losing a lot of money, quickly.</p><p>Of course, there&#39;s always the flip-side of that coin, and leveraged ETFs may also deliver significant returns (during short periods).</p><p>If &#34;Timing is Everything&#34;, generally speaking, it&#39;s even more crucial when it comes to buying leveraged ETFs. One must have a high conviction, a near-perfect timing, a short-term trading view/mentality, and an exit (including stop loss) strategy. [We elaborate on these elements at the end of this article.]</p><p>Below you can see the total returns of the leveraged ETFs we focus on during two very different periods.</p><p>1) Bear Market: Total Return since Dec. 27, 2021</p><p>Semis:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6894a55ca17620f94b6c167ef6402e40\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Tech:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1101bbe95e105d513c3e3ea4558a48fd\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Clearly, there&#39;s a lot of money to be lost (or made) during a bear market with any instrument, let alone 3x-leveraged ETFs.

Playing (investing) with something (leverage) that shouldn't be messed with.In this article, we try to cover all the bases you may find within the leveraged ETFs pitch, particularly 3x-leveraged NASDAQ-100 and Semiconductor ETFs.PrologueNearly two weeks ago we wrote about 'hedging through shorting', while presenting our short positions in two 3x-leveraged ETFs: ProShares UltraPro QQQ ETF (NASDAQ:TQQQ) and Direxion Daily Semiconductor 3x Bull Shares ETF (SOXL).In this article, we wish to remain within the same theme (hedging through shorting) and elaborate on this topic, particularly touching upon two very important aspects that are (not only related but) crucial to the theme:1) Leveraged ETFs (in general): Buy vs. Sell, Pros and Cons, Risk and Reward.2) Live demonstration of how leveraged ETFs' mechanics work (or don't work...): Specific examples using two pairs of growth/tech leveraged ETFs:Big Tech: ProShares UltraPro QQQ (TQQQ) vs ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ (NASDAQ:SQQQ)Semiconductors: Direxion Daily Semiconductor 3X Bull Shares ETF (SOXL) vs Direxion Daily Semiconductor 3X Bear Shares ETF (SOXS)Leveraged ETFs - Key FeaturesBuy vs SellThis is likely the most important aspect to keep in mind.Since leveraged ETFs use options/derivatives to achieve the magnifying element (leveraging) - any leveraged ETF, by definition, suffers from time decay, aka \"Theta\".Time decay is a measure of the rate of decline in the value of an options contract due to the passage of time. Time decay accelerates as an option's time to expiration draws closer since there's less time to realize a profit from the trade. - [Source]What you need to know:1. The closer an option is to its expiry date - the more rapidly it's losing money (to time decay).2. An \"At The Money\" (\"ATM\") option will receive the biggest premium at the start, but will lose the most, at an accelerating pace, towards the end.3. An \"In The Money\" (\"ITM\") option will receive the smallest premium at the start, and it will lose that premium, at a fairly steady pace, along its life.From a pure Theta perspective, it's categorically better to sell a leveraged ETF than to buy one, because the (loss of) time decay is working in the investor's favor.Pros and ConsLeveraged ETFs are risky instruments.Therefore, there are certain features one must be aware of, and there are certain rules one would be better off adhering to.Leverage (of a benchmark)Principally, all leveraged ETFs are aiming to amplify the return of a non-leveraged instrument, usually an index. For example:It's important to remain within one's comfort zone, and to ensure that the use of a leveraged ETF fits the investor's profile, needs, and risk aversion.VolatilityLooking at the 30-Day Rolling Volatility, you can see that the leverage is amplifying not only the return, but also the volatility. A 3x-leveraged ETF is 3x as volatile as the benchmark it's looking to copy.Semis:Tech:Daily performanceThis is one of the features many investors miss or fail to understand.Leveraged ETFs are trying to mimic the daily performance of a certain benchmark. As such, when you look at the daily (or short-term for that matter) performance - the leveraged ETF is likely to show a very/fairly close return to the leverage it offers (be it a long or a short mechanism). For example:Semis' 1-day price change: Daily returns of SOXL and SOXS are about +3x and -3x, respectively, the daily return of SOXX.Tech's 1-day price change: Daily returns of TQQQ and SQQQ are about +3x and -3x, respectively, the daily return of QQQ.Nonetheless, if we move to a longer period, say 2022, the math isn't as straight as it's when we look at the short-term.Semis' YTD price change: YTD returns of SOXL and SOXS are about +2.65x and -0.07x, respectively, the YTD return of SOXX.Tech's YTD price change: YTD returns of TQQQ and SQQQ are about +2.61x and -2.87x [=(52.59+28.13)/-28.13], respectively, the daily return of QQQ.Over time, and assuming the benchmark/index doesn't move in a (fairly) straight line - the performance of a leveraged ETF may differ significantly from the performance of the underlying benchmark.Risk and RewardPhenomenal/Horrendous Total ReturnsFirst and foremost, as you may well understand, the main risk is the (quite reasonable) scenario of losing a lot of money, quickly.Of course, there's always the flip-side of that coin, and leveraged ETFs may also deliver significant returns (during short periods).If \"Timing is Everything\", generally speaking, it's even more crucial when it comes to buying leveraged ETFs. One must have a high conviction, a near-perfect timing, a short-term trading view/mentality, and an exit (including stop loss) strategy. [We elaborate on these elements at the end of this article.]Below you can see the total returns of the leveraged ETFs we focus on during two very different periods.1) Bear Market: Total Return since Dec. 27, 2021Semis:Tech:Clearly, there's a lot of money to be lost (or made) during a bear market with any instrument, let alone 3x-leveraged ETFs. While the benchmarks (SOXX, QQQ) have lost ~30%, the ultra long ETFs (SOXL, TQQQ) have lost over 3/4 of their value, and the ultra short ETFs (SOXS, SQQQ) have actually gained.Pay attention to the divergence between SOXS (a gain of only 4.5%) and SQQQ (a gain of 59.3%), a result of the recent speedy recovery of Semis (relative to Tech) in recent weeks.2) Bull Market: Total Return from Mar. 23, 2020 to Dec. 27, 2021Semis:Tech:Clearly, there's a lot of money to be lost (or made) during a bull market with any instrument, let alone 3x-leveraged ETFs. While the benchmarks (SOXX, QQQ) have gained low triple-digit %, the ultra long ETFs (SOXL, TQQQ) have delivered stunning returns. At the same time, the ultra short ETFs (SOXS, SQQQ) have practically vanished, leaving investors with (nearly) nothing out of their initial investments.The Longer the Tenure - the Higher the Risk of Losing BigSecondly, and regardless of the (bull or bear) type of market we're in and/or the total return over a certain period, leveraged ETFs are guaranteed to lose value over time. Putting it differently, the longer you stick to these instruments - the higher the odds of a significant drawdown.Below you can see how deep is the decline that leveraged ETFs have (thus may) suffered from (% off-high) over different tenures.3 years: While the long versions (SOXL, TQQQ) have lost 75%-80%, the short versions (SOXS, SQQQ) have lost nearly their entire value.10 years: While the long versions (SOXL, TQQQ) have lost 75%-80%, the short versions (SOXS, SQQQ) have lost nearly their entire value.Although the past decade can definitely be described as a bull market (overall), leveraged ETFs have been hammered, no matter whether they were long or short the underlying benchmarks.This, once again, proves that these instruments can't be held (long position) over the long run. You can be long, but not for too long.\"The Road is Long With Many a Winding Turn\" [Source]Finally, it's important to understand that both time and slope play a major role in determining the return, therefore worthiness, of trading a leveraged ETF.It's very unlikely, almost impossible, for your long (short) leveraged ETF position to deliver a return equal to the (inverse) return of the underlying, non-leveraged, benchmark.To explain this, let's use the S&P 500 and its +/-1/2/3 leveraged versions.Naturally, the 2x- (SSO, SDS) and 3x- (SPXL, SPXU) leveraged versions are 2x and 3x as volatile as the non-leveraged versions (SPY, SH).But does the extra volatility usually/automatically translate into higher returns? Not necessarily.YTD: While the returns of the long versions (SPY, SSO, SPXL) make sense (from a leverage/volatility perspective), those of the short versions (SH, SDS, SPXS) don't.As a matter of fact, the 2x-leveraged SDS and the 3x-leveraged SPXS have delivered nearly the same total returns. If so, why would one pick the more risky SPXS over the less risky SDS!?3-Year: The 2x-leveraged SSO has returned twice as much as the 3x-leveraged SPXL. Moreover, the non-leveraged SPY is only ~4.4% short of SSO's total return.In both cases, the extra risk (volatility) hasn't resulted in a better performance; quite the contrary.5-Year: Once again, the 2x-leveraged SSO has returned more than the 3x-leveraged SPXL. Moreover, the 2x-leveraged SDS hasn't performed a lot better than the 3x-leveraged SPXS.10-Year: The short ETFs, whether leveraged or not, got battered. The long ETFs, however, are looking as good as how you wish a leveraged ETF (that you buy) to be.SPXL and SSO have returned more than 4x and ~2.5x, respectively, what SPY has.Macro Trading Factory - Trading AlertsHere is some of the information that we posted when we issued the most recent trading alerts (\"TAs\") to our subscribers.We are happy to share this information here, as we believe it's relevant and allows for a better understanding of the topic.TA dated Nov. 14, 2022:These TAs were discussed and explained in the piece that we've published Nov. 14.The main message: With the SPX reaching the 4000 mark, we wish to employ some anti-tech/growth hedging again, and by doing so we're (once again) reducing our net long exposure (back to the low 60s% area).Recall that there are two pairs we're referring to:Direxion Daily Semiconductor 3X Bull Shares ETF (SOXL) vs. Direxion Daily Semiconductor 3X Bear Shares ETF (SOXS) >>> We're shorting SOXL, but one may buy SOXS for a similar (though not equivalent) effect.ProShares UltraPro QQQ (TQQQ) vs ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ (SQQQ) >>> We're shorting TQQQ, but one may buy SQQQ for a similar (though not equivalent) effect.Key points to keep in mind:Total Assets Under Management:The 3x-bullish ETFs (SOXL, TQQQ) are attracting a lot more money than their 3x-bearish counterparts (SOXS, SQQQ).Having said that, last week no less than $658M was funneled into SQQQ. Per Bloomberg, that’s the largest-ever inflow for a product that aims to deliver 3x the opposite performance of the US benchmark for major technology companies.When looking at the Daily Price Change the movements are fairly close in absolute terms, i.e. SOXL is moving like SOXS and TQQQ is moving like SQQQ.Nevertheless, things are changing over time.The longer the period - the greater the (potential) divergence.It's not guaranteed, but shorting the 3x-bullish ETFs is likely to deliver a better return than buying the 3x-bearish ETFs.TA dated Nov. 15, 2022:Nothing to add to what we wrote Nov. 14, but still - we would like to show you how even the technical analysis supports the fundamentals and risk aversion mode we see ahead.Recall that it's not advisable to do technical analysis using leveraged instruments. Leverage is just a \"wrapper\" not the base \"package\" which is the non-leveraged instrument.Having that in mind, here are the two, relevant, non-leveraged instruments on which we conduct some technical analysis. [Note that they're very similar in terms of nature and the message they deliver.]SOXX is currently hitting (or just about to hit) three resistance levels:200-DMALong-term down-trending red lineShort-term (horizontal) green lineQQQ is coming close to hit three resistance levels:200-DMALong-term down-trending red lineShort-term (horizontal) green lineEpilogueA leveraged ETF can be your best friend when you get the direction and timing right, but it can be your worst nightmare when you get the direction and timing wrong.We hope that through this article, we've managed to assist you with better understanding the Dr. Jekyll ('Home Run') and Mr. Hyde ('Loaded Gun') natures (characteristics) of these instruments.As we mentioned above, when buying a leveraged ETF, it's very important to keep the pros and cons, risk and reward, in mind but it's not enough. In addition to all these attributes, one musts also have the following:1) High Conviction: Buying a leveraged ETF requires a higher-than-usual conviction, in line with the significantly higher volatility. \"Feeling good\" about the upside potential of an investing idea isn't enough and an in-depth analysis regarding the downside risk is key.If we believe the downside risk of the underlying (non-leveraged) to be significant (usually 20%), we're less likely to move in, even if the upside is way more significant.Unlike a non-leveraged security that we may buy (if the risk/reward is very attractive) even if the downside risk is significant, when it comes to a leveraged ETF downside risk rules (overcoming the risk/reward profile, no matter how attractive the latter is).2) Near-perfect timing: It's very hard to find the \"right moment\", surely the \"perfect timing\". The latter is based on pure luck and only retrospectively we are in position to know whether our timing was good or not.Therefore, when we say \"near perfect timing\" we actually refer to maximum hesitation and patience. Take your time, don't rush, and let the stabilization, consolidation, and/or capitulation periods show their pretty, and more important: less risky, face.In line with that, it's strongly advisable to build a position involving a leveraged ETF over time. Indeed, it's likely going to be a relatively short time, in order to match the \"hit the iron while it's hot\" concept. Still, it's better to 'hit' a leveraged 'iron' several times rather than only once or twice.3) Short-term trading view/mentality: We believe that investors mustn't \"get married\" with any position, surely not with a leveraged ETF.Any position has a (stretched) valuation where it warrants a sale, and when it comes to leveraged ETFs - quick \"love affairs\" is the name of the game.Leveraged ETFs aren't the type of instrument you wish to get older with. They are only suitable for certain times and there's no reason to extend their hospitality for too long.Best is to pre-set levels and targets, and once those get fulfilled - kiss the leveraged ETF goodbye. No hard feelings, and no need to shed tears.4) An exit (including stop loss) strategy:Not every encounter we have in life results in a pleasant experience. Some encounters are very enjoyable/profitable, some less, and a few may suck big time.The idea is to minimize the latter type and to avoid stretching the former type.If it works out quickly - say goodbye quickly.If you still wish to examine the relationship - let it be, as long as the examining period doesn't come at the expense of other, possibly better, encounters.But if it looks as if there's no future here - there's really no reason to stick around. Cut your losses and move on.Obviously, easier said (or written) than done, but here's an example of all the trades we suggested involving SOXL, one of the leveraged ETF we were active with this year on both LONG and SHORT fronts.I don't think we had perfect timing, but we did have pretty good timing.More importantly, we had a high conviction [Note: different times = different directions!], we surely had/have a short-term trading view/mentality, and we certainly didn't/don't fall in love with the position - be it a LONG or a SHORT one.Last but not least, keep in mind that we use leveraged ETFs as part of our HEDGING strategy, which means that there are LONG positions (we wish to protect) against the SHORT positions (if and when we open such positions).This isn't something we suggest the average investor do without having the necessary ingredients (knowledge, experience, guts/risk aversion) and tools (risk analysis, portfolio management, modeling) to support such an activity.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":704,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":885088882,"gmtCreate":1631745699146,"gmtModify":1676530621628,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hope it is a nice pullback","listText":"Hope it is a nice pullback","text":"Hope it is a nice pullback","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/885088882","repostId":"1148341685","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1148341685","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631660884,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1148341685?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-15 07:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. stocks close lower on worries over recovery, corporate tax hikes","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1148341685","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wall Street lost ground on Tuesday as economic uncertainties and the increasing","content":"<p>NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wall Street lost ground on Tuesday as economic uncertainties and the increasing likelihood of a corporate tax rate hike dampened investor sentiment and prompted a broad sell-off despite signs of easing inflation.</p>\n<p>Optimism faded throughout the session, reversing an initial rally following the Labor Department’s consumer price index report.

The electric vehicle company delivered 5,100 ES6s, 1,828 EC6s and 1,684 ES8s which are all sport utility vehicles. Additionally, NIO delivered a massive 4,349 ET7s, the firm’s first sedan product that started to sell in China only in March.</p><p>NIO’s delivery growth in June has been driven by two models especially: The ET7 which has seen month-over-month delivery growth of a massive 154.8% and the ES6 which saw a delivery increase of 73.7% on a monthly basis. NIO’s ES6 model still has the largest delivery share (currently 39.3%) and NIO produces by far the largest number of SUVs in the ES6 product line. But because of the surge in demand for electric vehicle sedans, going forward, the ET7 is set to replace NIO’s ES6 as the most important vehicle in NIO’s product portfolio. With NIO’s ET5 deliveries expected to start in September, the electric vehicle start-up could generate about half of its deliveries and sales from sedans, not SUVs, by year-end.</p><p>The share of ET7 deliveries has consistently increased throughout the second-quarter as well: in April, May and June, the delivery shares of the ET7 were 13.7%, 24.3% and 33.6%. Considering that NIO will add sedan volume through the ET5, especially in the fourth quarter, sedan deliveries are likely going to be the biggest driver for NIO’s delivery growth in the second half of 2022 and beyond.</p><p><b>NIO has long-term potential, but short-term setbacks should be expected</b></p><p>NIO’s valuation today is much cheaper than a year ago. During the pandemic, shares of NIO traded as high as $65. But investors appear to have stopped caring much about NIO’s delivery growth prospects lately which is understandable considering that EV deliveries have slowed down industry-wide in the first quarter. While short-term setbacks have to be expected, especially regarding new COVID-19 outbreaks in China, NIO’s growth prospects are attractive in the long term.</p><p>NIO is expected to grow revenues 60% this year to $9.07B, indicating a price-to-sales ratio of 3.8X. The forward P-S ratio, based on expected sales of $15.96B, implies a P-S ratio of 2.2X and revenue growth of 76%... so the market even expects an acceleration in revenue growth in FY 2023.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f8783ef7161e7a0ff94ffa153c81a2a\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p><b>Risks with NIO</b></p><p>The biggest risk for NIO, as I see it, is a volatile short-term delivery pattern that makes it hard for the market to predict NIO’s delivery potential with any kind of accuracy. COVID-19 shutdowns are still a threat to electric vehicle manufacturers as well because they could impact manufacturing hubs that produce electric vehicles or dampen demand for NIO’s products. Xi’an, a city of 13M, was partially shut down on Wednesday after a few cases of a new COVID-19 variant have been detected. China’s heavy-handed approach to mitigating the spread of COVID-19 and its variants is a big risk for NIO’s delivery potential as well as the stock in the short term. What would change my mind about NIO is if delivery growth slowed down and the firm&#39;s sedan ramp started to disappoint.</p><p><b>Final thoughts</b></p><p>NIO’s June ramp in production and deliveries was surprisingly good. The surge in ET7 deliveries is the key take-away for investors, because deliveries started only three months ago and sedans now already account for a third of NIO’s delivery volume. Considering that ET5 deliveries are set to start in September, I believe NIO’s long-term delivery potential, especially in the sedan market, is underrated. However, since NIO faces uncertain short-term delivery prospects due to new COVID-19 outbreaks in China, I have a neutral opinion on NIO.</p></body></html>","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>NIO: June Deliveries Show Growth Making A Comeback</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\">\nNIO: June Deliveries Show Growth Making A Comeback\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-07-09 11:29 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4522180-nio-growth-is-making-a-comeback?source=content_type%3Aall%7Cfirst_level_url%3Aportfolio%7Csection%3Aportfolio_content_unit%7Csection_asset%3Alatest%7Cline%3A58><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryAfter months of weakness, NIO’s deliveries soared back strongly in June.ET7 sedan deliveries increased 155.7% month over month and now represent a third of all of NIO's product deliveries.ET5 ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4522180-nio-growth-is-making-a-comeback?source=content_type%3Aall%7Cfirst_level_url%3Aportfolio%7Csection%3Aportfolio_content_unit%7Csection_asset%3Alatest%7Cline%3A58\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"09866":"蔚来-SW","NIO":"蔚来","NIO.SI":"蔚来"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4522180-nio-growth-is-making-a-comeback?source=content_type%3Aall%7Cfirst_level_url%3Aportfolio%7Csection%3Aportfolio_content_unit%7Csection_asset%3Alatest%7Cline%3A58","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1106697268","content_text":"SummaryAfter months of weakness, NIO’s deliveries soared back strongly in June.ET7 sedan deliveries increased 155.7% month over month and now represent a third of all of NIO's product deliveries.ET5 and ET7 production are set to exceed volume production of the ES6 this year.NIO's (NYSE:NIO) first-quarter production and delivery performance was greatly impacted by a variety of factors, including Chinese holidays and COVID-related shutdowns that limited factory output levels.

That&#39;s why the nugget of investing wisdom that says it&#39;s not about timing the market, but your time <i>in</i> the market, is so true. It means there&#39;s never a bad time to invest, and always having money available, even small amounts, is a good strategy for everyone.</p><p>By the time working Americans are ready to retire, the following pair of hot growth stocks have the potential to make those who invested in them, wealthy.</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">Nvidia</a></h2><p>Shares of graphics chipmaker <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\"><b>Nvidia</b> </a> are suffering now due to the general sector rotation out of technology stocks and the high-flyers that trounced the S&amp;P 500 last year. Nvidia&#39;s stock surged 125% in 2021 but is down 16% so far this year.</p><p>No matter, investors should view this pullback as a buying opportunity even though the stock looks expensive by traditional metrics. Despite trading at 76 times trailing earnings, 47 times next year&#39;s estimates, and 87 times the free cash flow it produces -- even after its haircut -- the premium Nvidia commands is warranted because its business remains white-hot.</p><p>While gaming is still the chipmaker&#39;s primary moneymaker, responsible for 45% of total Q3 sales, Nvidia expects its data center business to overtake that segment by 2025. It already generates billions of dollars in revenue every year, with data center sales soaring 55% in the third quarter (period ended Oct. 31) to hit $2.9 billion. And following its $7 billion acquisition of Mellanox in 2020, Nvidia is now positioned as a leading supplier for networking hardware.</p><p>Those two segments alone would be enough to justify Nvidia&#39;s lofty valuation, but it has other equally exciting opportunities, even if they don&#39;t yet approach the level of gaming and data centers.</p><p>Nvidia&#39;s professional visualization segment, for example, got a big boost from the pandemic, which created outsize demand for high-end mobile workstations that offer real-time rendering capabilities. It utilizes artificial intelligence and virtual reality to help simulate real-life designs. Revenue surged 144% year over year as growth in desktop and notebook workstation GPUs rose due to enterprises deploying new systems to allow for hybrid work situations.</p><p>It cuts across all industries, too, including automotive, media and entertainment, architectural engineering, oil and gas, and medical imaging.</p><p>Wall Street forecasts revenue will triple to over $56 billion by the middle of the decade, helping to give Nvidia a multitrillion-dollar valuation. The chipmaker is the closest thing an investor can find to a set-and-forget stock for their retirement portfolio.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AFRM\">Affirm</a></h2><p>Buying on installment is an old idea that&#39;s new again, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AFRM\"><b>Affirm</b> </a> is one of the leading names in the buy now, pay later (BNPL) space. Partnerships with the likes of <b>Amazon</b> and <b>Shopify</b> (NYSE:SHOP) open up vast new terrain for the lending outfit that&#39;s already starting to pay off.</p><p>Fiscal first-quarter earnings for the September period saw the number of active customers more than double to 8.7 million from the year-ago quarter and rise 22% sequentially. Amazon brings some 200 million potential customers to the table, while Shopify adds an additional 118 million.</p><p>Not everyone will take advantage of the BNPL opportunity, but it gives Affirm a much broader audience to tap. Shopify has been a partner since July 2020, and active merchants participating in Affirm&#39;s Shop Pay Installments program grew from 6,500 to 102,000 in just one year, representing a 15-fold increase.</p><p>The Amazon deal is new, but it could be a game-changer for Affirm.</p><p>Of course, there are risks involved. Privately held Klarna is the biggest player in the space, with some 250,000 merchants on board and an estimated $78 billion in global sales volume. <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a></b> has its own BNPL service that it launched in 2020, and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SQ\">Block</a></b> just acquired Afterpay, giving the BNPL company its own massive opportunity to expand its universe of customers.</p><p>Affirm also still carries a premium price tag like Nvidia, even though its stock got cut down by a third in the first month of the new year and has lost 64% of its value from its November highs. It&#39;s still producing operating losses while trading at 19 times its sales.</p><p>Analysts are forecasting Affirm will see revenue grow 10 times its fiscal 2021 level to hit $3.5 billion by 2025, which would represent a 74% compound annual growth rate. New regulatory measures on BNPL here and abroad could impact growth, but it&#39;s a wide-open area for Affirm, and investors should feel comfortable buying this fintech stock for the long haul.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

That's why the nugget of investing wisdom that says it's not about timing the market, but your time in the market, is so true. It means there's never a bad time to invest, and always having money available, even small amounts, is a good strategy for everyone.By the time working Americans are ready to retire, the following pair of hot growth stocks have the potential to make those who invested in them, wealthy.1. NvidiaShares of graphics chipmaker Nvidia  are suffering now due to the general sector rotation out of technology stocks and the high-flyers that trounced the S&P 500 last year. Nvidia's stock surged 125% in 2021 but is down 16% so far this year.No matter, investors should view this pullback as a buying opportunity even though the stock looks expensive by traditional metrics. Despite trading at 76 times trailing earnings, 47 times next year's estimates, and 87 times the free cash flow it produces -- even after its haircut -- the premium Nvidia commands is warranted because its business remains white-hot.While gaming is still the chipmaker's primary moneymaker, responsible for 45% of total Q3 sales, Nvidia expects its data center business to overtake that segment by 2025. It already generates billions of dollars in revenue every year, with data center sales soaring 55% in the third quarter (period ended Oct. 31) to hit $2.9 billion. And following its $7 billion acquisition of Mellanox in 2020, Nvidia is now positioned as a leading supplier for networking hardware.Those two segments alone would be enough to justify Nvidia's lofty valuation, but it has other equally exciting opportunities, even if they don't yet approach the level of gaming and data centers.Nvidia's professional visualization segment, for example, got a big boost from the pandemic, which created outsize demand for high-end mobile workstations that offer real-time rendering capabilities. It utilizes artificial intelligence and virtual reality to help simulate real-life designs. Revenue surged 144% year over year as growth in desktop and notebook workstation GPUs rose due to enterprises deploying new systems to allow for hybrid work situations.It cuts across all industries, too, including automotive, media and entertainment, architectural engineering, oil and gas, and medical imaging.Wall Street forecasts revenue will triple to over $56 billion by the middle of the decade, helping to give Nvidia a multitrillion-dollar valuation. The chipmaker is the closest thing an investor can find to a set-and-forget stock for their retirement portfolio.2. AffirmBuying on installment is an old idea that's new again, and Affirm  is one of the leading names in the buy now, pay later (BNPL) space. Partnerships with the likes of Amazon and Shopify (NYSE:SHOP) open up vast new terrain for the lending outfit that's already starting to pay off.Fiscal first-quarter earnings for the September period saw the number of active customers more than double to 8.7 million from the year-ago quarter and rise 22% sequentially. Amazon brings some 200 million potential customers to the table, while Shopify adds an additional 118 million.Not everyone will take advantage of the BNPL opportunity, but it gives Affirm a much broader audience to tap. Shopify has been a partner since July 2020, and active merchants participating in Affirm's Shop Pay Installments program grew from 6,500 to 102,000 in just one year, representing a 15-fold increase.The Amazon deal is new, but it could be a game-changer for Affirm.Of course, there are risks involved. Privately held Klarna is the biggest player in the space, with some 250,000 merchants on board and an estimated $78 billion in global sales volume. PayPal has its own BNPL service that it launched in 2020, and Block just acquired Afterpay, giving the BNPL company its own massive opportunity to expand its universe of customers.Affirm also still carries a premium price tag like Nvidia, even though its stock got cut down by a third in the first month of the new year and has lost 64% of its value from its November highs. It's still producing operating losses while trading at 19 times its sales.Analysts are forecasting Affirm will see revenue grow 10 times its fiscal 2021 level to hit $3.5 billion by 2025, which would represent a 74% compound annual growth rate. New regulatory measures on BNPL here and abroad could impact growth, but it's a wide-open area for Affirm, and investors should feel comfortable buying this fintech stock for the long haul.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":300,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":863057001,"gmtCreate":1632348475103,"gmtModify":1676530756643,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Will bubble it higher...&nbsp;","listText":"Will bubble it higher...&nbsp;","text":"Will bubble it higher...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/863057001","repostId":"2169572196","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2169572196","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1632336840,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2169572196?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-23 02:54","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Why the debt limit fight makes Washington a stock-market 'wild card'","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2169572196","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"'Politicians will often take things to the edge to see who blinks and gain the upper hand': RenMac's","content":"<blockquote>\n 'Politicians will often take things to the edge to see who blinks and gain the upper hand': RenMac's deGraaf.\n</blockquote>\n<p>The potential for another white-knuckle flirtation with default by the U.S. government via a debt-ceiling showdown is helping to raise \"policy uncertainty,\" analysts noted Wednesday.</p>\n<p>The good news is that rising uncertainty has traditionally been a buying opportunity, according to a top Wall Street technician.</p>\n<p>\"We are believers that this will prove a buyable correction within an uptrend, but we don't see the wild card being China, rather we see it as Washington,\" wrote Jeff deGraaf, founder of Renaissance Macro Research, in a note.</p>\n<p>Worries about a potential default by China property giant Evergrande triggered a sharp stock-market selloff on Monday.

It draws on search results from 10 large U.S. newspapers, reports by the Congressional Budget Office that compile tax code provisions due to expire over the next 10 years, and the Philadelphia Fed's survey of professional forecasters.\nWhile policy uncertainty \"has started to migrate into the markets, politicianswill often take things to the edge to see who blinks and gain the upper hand,\" he wrote.\nWhile worries over a potential government shutdown in October and the debt ceiling are front and center, uncertainty is also on the rise over President Joe Biden's agenda, including his infrastructure and social welfare spending proposals.\nRenaissance Macro Research sees Republicans in Congress holding the stronger cards, which may allow them to force the issue, deGraaf said, noting that the index hasn't yet jumped into the top decile (see bottom part of chart), which is typically a bullish signal when it comes to forward returns for the S&P 500 index.\n\"If your hands are strong enough to hold on, there are plenty of green lights to get the wheels turning, but don't be surprised to see more planted leaks and adverse headlines before it's resolved,\" he said.\nOutside the Box: Evergrande crisis and the U.S. debt-ceiling showdown could give stock investors a buying opportunity\nThe Democratic-controlled House late Tuesday approved legislation that would keep the government funded, suspend the federal debt limit and provide disaster and refugee aid, setting up a showdown with Senate Republicans who oppose the package.\nThe federal government will face a shutdown on Sept. 30, the end of the fiscal year, if a funding measure isn't approved. A more dire threat surrounds the debt ceiling, which the government could hit at some point in October unless it is raised or suspended. Failure to act risks a U.S. default on its debt.\nAt least 10 Senate Republicans would need to vote in favor of the measure for it to get the required supermajority. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the chamber's top Republican, has insisted the debt ceiling be raised solely with Democratic support, citing opposition to a proposed $3.5 trillion spending plan.\nDemocrats have refused to attach a raise in the debt ceiling to that spending plan, which they intend to push through the Senate using a process known as reconciliation, which requires a simple majority. Top Democrats have insisted that lifting the debt limit must be a bipartisan undertaking.\nA move to lift or suspend the debt ceiling, averting a potential default, remains the base expectation, but fears that legislative brinkmanship could result in a mishap are on the rise.\nEconomists at Moody's Analytics warned Tuesday that a default would result in long-term harm to the economy and create chaos in global financial markets.\nThe Tell: Washington is 'playing a dangerous game with the debt limit,' and 'Americans would pay for default for generations, says Moody's Zandi\nMeanwhile, memories of the last two debt-ceiling showdowns, in 2011 and 2013, remain fresh. The 2011 crisis saw Standard & Poor's, for the first time ever, downgrade the long-term U.S. credit rating from AAA to AA+.\nAnother downgrade can't be ruled out, even if the U.S. Treasury Department avoids a default but fails to honor other obligations, wrote economists at Oxford Economics, in a Wednesday note. They recalled that the 2011 episode also saw spike in volatility, as measured by the Cboe Volatility Index , and a 10% drop in stock prices, though both shocks were rapidly reversed once the debt ceiling was lifted.\nStill, investors \"cannot discount the uncertainty factor and the knock-on effects on private sector activity,\" they wrote.\nJitters are already apparent in the market for short-term Treasury bills, with rates rising on bills due to mature in the second half of October, analysts noted.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":334,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":809135358,"gmtCreate":1627351615474,"gmtModify":1703488151819,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/809135358","repostId":"2154964378","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2154964378","kind":"highlight","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":1627332217,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2154964378?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-27 04:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Indexes notch closing record highs as key earnings, Fed meet eyed","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2154964378","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK, July 26 (Reuters) - All three major U.S. stock indexes eked out record closing highs for a","content":"<p>NEW YORK, July 26 (Reuters) - All three major U.S. stock indexes eked out record closing highs for a second straight session on Monday as investors were optimistic heading into a slew of earnings from heavyweight technology and internet names this week, while caution ahead of a Federal Reserve policy meeting kept the market in check.</p>\n<p>More than <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-third of the S&amp;P 500 was set to report quarterly results this week, including Apple Inc , Microsoft Corp , Amazon.com Inc and Google parent Alphabet Inc , the four largest U.S. companies by market value.

One possible change from a visual standpoint is a smaller notch on the top of the phones, but otherwise the devices shouldn't look too different from their predecessors. MacRumors predicts that some rumored changes, like the disappearance of the Lightning charging port or the return of a fingerprint sensor, won't actually manifest in the upcoming models.</p>\n<p>Apple isn't likely to change the sizes of its phones this year, according to MacRumors, which is looking for the company to roll out a 5.4-inch iPhone mini, a 6.1-inch iPhone, a 6.1-inch iPhone Pro and a 6.7-inch iPhone Pro Max.</p>\n<p>The biggest improvements could come to the camera. Apple is reportedly planning to introduce a video version of its Portrait Mode setting, according to Bloomberg News, which would let users capture videos with blurred backgrounds. The company is also looking to add a ProRes recording capability that would allow for high-resolution footage as well as new photo-diting functions that would let people make pictures warmer or cooler, without affecting the white tones, per the report.</p>\n<p>There's also been talk of potential satellite capabilities in the next iPhones. Shares of satellite-communications company Globalstar Inc. surged after a report indicated that Apple was including low-earth orbit <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LEO\">$(LEO)$</a> satellite communications so that users would be able to place calls or send messages without 4G or 5G cellular connections, but a second report suggested that Apple may limit this feature to emergency communications.</p>\n<p><b>Augmented reality</b></p>\n<p>Apple's landing page for the Sept. 14 event contained an Easter egg for iPhone users, allowing them to click on the Apple logo and view it in augmented reality on top of their surroundings. That suggests to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EFFE\">Global X</a> research analyst Pedro Palandrani that the company could be planning a significant AR announcement.</p>\n<p>The \"easy answer\" is that Apple would introduce a new AR feature for the iPhone, but there's \"not much to do there at this point,\" Palandrani told MarketWatch. \"I wouldn't be surprised if we get to see some Apple glasses,\" he continued, referring to the oft-discussed possibility that Apple would develop a form of AR glasses. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> Inc. (FB) recently unveiled its own pair of smart glasses.</p>\n<p>Whether Apple would be able to sell the hypothetical smart glasses immediately remains a question for Palandrani, given supply constraints impacting the broader consumer-electronics industry.</p>\n<p>\"Maybe they don't have the ability at this time to mass manufacture that type of device,\" he said, but in the near term, it's \"certainly a possibility.\"</p>\n<p>Evercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani wrote that he sees \"a LONG SHOT that we finally get an AR/VR product announcement.\"</p>\n<p><b>Apple Watch</b></p>\n<p>Apple could be planning a design change to its next Apple Watch, as rumors indicate the company is looking to slightly increase its screen sizes and make the casing style more similar to what's seen on the iPhone 12 line.</p>\n<p>The Apple Watch 7 could come in 41-millimeter and 45-millimeter screen sizes, according to Bloomberg News, up from 40 millimeters and 44 millimeters currently. Bloomberg isn't anticipating any meaningful health upgrades, noting that a body-temperature scanner may not show up until next year's models come out.</p>\n<p>The devices are expected to have a flat-edged look, according to MacRumors, similar to what the iPhone 12 line sports. There were indications that Apple faced production issues with the Apple Watch 7, mainly due to the new design, but MacRumors cited a recent report from noted Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who said that Apple has resolved its issues and still looks to be on track with its planned launch.</p>\n<p><b>AirPods</b></p>\n<p>Apple could also be set to launch a refreshed version of its entry-level AirPods headphones. Beyond the base model, Apple offers a Pro version of the earbuds and a set of high-quality, over-the-ear headphones, and Apple may borrow some features from those as it jazzes up its regular AirPods.</p>\n<p>To start, the company is expected to change up the design a bit, putting a shorter stem on the new AirPods, similar to what's seen on the AirPods Pro. A CNet roundup notes that Apple is rumored to be planning for the introduction of spatial-audio technology to the basic AirPods.</p>\n<p>Apple may intend to leave out noise-cancelling functions on this upcoming AirPods model, per a report from Bloomberg News that came out late last year.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Here's what Apple is expected to announce at its iPhone 13 launch event Tuesday</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\">\nHere's what Apple is expected to announce at its iPhone 13 launch event Tuesday\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-13 15:05 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/heres-what-apple-is-expected-to-announce-at-its-iphone-13-launch-event-tuesday-11631480093?mod=home-page><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Apple looks to refocus on the iPhone after App Store legal blow\nApple is set to unveil new devices at a Tuesday event.\nFresh off a legal sting in its battle over App Store payment practices, Apple Inc...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/heres-what-apple-is-expected-to-announce-at-its-iphone-13-launch-event-tuesday-11631480093?mod=home-page\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/heres-what-apple-is-expected-to-announce-at-its-iphone-13-launch-event-tuesday-11631480093?mod=home-page","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2167630550","content_text":"Apple looks to refocus on the iPhone after App Store legal blow\nApple is set to unveil new devices at a Tuesday event.\nFresh off a legal sting in its battle over App Store payment practices, Apple Inc. will be looking to refocus attention back on its technology with its upcoming iPhone reveal.\nThe smartphone giant is expected to unveil its iPhone 13 lineup -- as well as new smartwatches, headphones and possibly more -- during its annual fall event Tuesday.

(FB) recently unveiled its own pair of smart glasses.\nWhether Apple would be able to sell the hypothetical smart glasses immediately remains a question for Palandrani, given supply constraints impacting the broader consumer-electronics industry.\n\"Maybe they don't have the ability at this time to mass manufacture that type of device,\" he said, but in the near term, it's \"certainly a possibility.\"\nEvercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani wrote that he sees \"a LONG SHOT that we finally get an AR/VR product announcement.\"\nApple Watch\nApple could be planning a design change to its next Apple Watch, as rumors indicate the company is looking to slightly increase its screen sizes and make the casing style more similar to what's seen on the iPhone 12 line.\nThe Apple Watch 7 could come in 41-millimeter and 45-millimeter screen sizes, according to Bloomberg News, up from 40 millimeters and 44 millimeters currently. Bloomberg isn't anticipating any meaningful health upgrades, noting that a body-temperature scanner may not show up until next year's models come out.\nThe devices are expected to have a flat-edged look, according to MacRumors, similar to what the iPhone 12 line sports. There were indications that Apple faced production issues with the Apple Watch 7, mainly due to the new design, but MacRumors cited a recent report from noted Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who said that Apple has resolved its issues and still looks to be on track with its planned launch.\nAirPods\nApple could also be set to launch a refreshed version of its entry-level AirPods headphones. Beyond the base model, Apple offers a Pro version of the earbuds and a set of high-quality, over-the-ear headphones, and Apple may borrow some features from those as it jazzes up its regular AirPods.\nTo start, the company is expected to change up the design a bit, putting a shorter stem on the new AirPods, similar to what's seen on the AirPods Pro. A CNet roundup notes that Apple is rumored to be planning for the introduction of spatial-audio technology to the basic AirPods.\nApple may intend to leave out noise-cancelling functions on this upcoming AirPods model, per a report from Bloomberg News that came out late last year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":137,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":815570050,"gmtCreate":1630708949170,"gmtModify":1676530379446,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/815570050","repostId":"2164879370","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2164879370","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1630678680,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2164879370?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-03 22:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Hypergrowth Stocks Expected to Increase Sales 1,185% to 12,629% by 2023","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2164879370","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These fast-paced companies should generate jaw-dropping revenue growth over the next three years.","content":"<p>Since the end of the Great Recession in 2009, growth stocks have thrived. Historically low lending rates, an ongoing quantitative easing program designed to weigh down long-term bond yields, and a free-spending Congress have all helped to make cheap capital widely abundant for businesses. This is helping to fuel acquisitions, hiring, and (most importantly) innovation.</p>\n<p>Yet for some companies, their exponential growth is just beginning. For each of the following hypergrowth stocks, Wall Street's consensus sales estimate for 2023, courtesy of <b>FactSet</b>, implies a revenue increase ranging from a low of 1,185% (yes, <i>a low of 1,185%</i>) to a high of 12,629%, compared to 2020 sales.</p>\n<h2>Moderna: Implied sales increase of 1,185%</h2>\n<p>Arguably the best-known name on this list is biotech <b>Moderna</b> (NASDAQ:MRNA). According to Wall Street, Moderna's annual revenue is expected to catapult from the $803.4 million recorded in 2020 to an estimated $10.33 billion in 2023. Interestingly, the $10.33 billion in projected sales for 2023 is about half of the $20.13 billion forecast this year.</p>\n<p>As a lot of you probably know, Modena's success is tied to the development of its coronavirus vaccine mRNA-1273. When the company ran a large-scale study of its COVID-19 vaccine, the results (released in November) demonstrated a vaccine efficacy (VE) of 94% and a strong propensity to keep vaccinated individuals from getting severe forms of the disease. This initial VE made Moderna's COVID vaccine a slam dunk for Emergency Use Authorization in the United States.</p>\n<p>When the company announced its second-quarter operating results on Aug. 5, it stuck to its original forecast of delivering between 800 million and 1 billion doses in 2021, with net product sales of around $20 billion. Next year, Moderna believes it can provide between 2 billion and 3 billion doses. As a reminder, the Moderna vaccine is a two-dose regimen, meaning its 2022 output could fully inoculate 1 billion to 1.5 billion people.</p>\n<p>Also working in Modena's favor is the possibility of booster vaccinations. The mutability of COVID, coupled with a handful of studies suggesting that VE begins waning at the six-month mark, could create a recurring vaccination need globally.</p>\n<p>While Moderna might sound like a surefire growth story, there are still big question marks about its future. For example, even though mRNA-1273 has been wildly successful, it's the only therapy that's generating sales for the company. Moderna's non-COVID pipeline looks to be years away from bringing in meaningful revenue.</p>\n<p>Equally concerning is the likelihood that the COVID vaccine space is going to become crowded. At some point soon, <b>Novavax</b>&nbsp;should join the field with a formidable initial VE of about 90%. It is also working on a combination COVID/influenza vaccine, which would be a differentiator and game changer.</p>\n<p>Not to take anything away from what Moderna has done, but a $150 billion market cap for a company with a single therapy seems awfully risky.</p>\n<h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZGNX\">Zogenix</a>: Implied sales increase of 2,451%</h2>\n<p>Another biotech stock that's expected to generate jaw-dropping sales growth through 2023 is small-cap <b>Zogenix</b> (NASDAQ:ZGNX). If Wall Street's consensus estimate proves accurate, the company's $13.64 million in reported sales in 2020 could grow to $348 million by 2023.</p>\n<p>Like Moderna, there's a single drug that looks to do all of the heavy lifting for Zogenix over the next couple of years: Fintepla. This is a drug targeted at a variety of seizure-related indications. It's already been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat Dravet syndrome. And Zogenix has plans to file a supplemental new drug application by the end of the current quarter to expand Fintepla's label to include Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS). Both Dravet and LGS are rare forms of childhood-onset epilepsy. If approved, Zogenix could launch Fintepla for LGS patients in this country by as early as the first half of 2022.</p>\n<p>And Zogenix still isn't done with Fintepla. After hashing out the finer points with the FDA, the company intends to initiate a phase 3 study involving Fintepla as a treatment for CDKL5 deficiency disorder before the end of the year. Thus, organic growth and label expansion opportunities are expected to fuel sales of Fintepla to almost $350 million in three years.</p>\n<p>What'll be particularly interesting is how Zogenix fares against cannabinoid-focused drug developer GW Pharmaceuticals, which was acquired by <b>Jazz Pharmaceuticals</b> (NASDAQ:JAZZ) in May. GW's lead drug, Epidiolex, is a cannabidiol-based treatment that's been approved by the FDA to treat Dravet syndrome and LGS, and it launched in advance of Zogenix's Fintepla. For comparative purposes, Jazz announced that Epidiolex brought home $155.9 million in sales just in the second quarter, although it has an additional indication under its belt (tuberous sclerosis complex) where it won't compete against Zogenix.</p>\n<p>Although Epidiolex appears to have the upper hand now, it's worth noting that seizure-reduction efficacy for Fintepla looked very promising in late-stage clinical trials. To be 100% clear, the GW Pharma and Zogenix studies were never pitted head-to-head, and their baseline parameters are different. Nevertheless, Fintepla led to a 62.3% reduction in mean monthly convulsive seizure frequency compared to placebo at the six-week mark for Dravet syndrome patients.</p>\n<p>Comparatively, Jazz's Epidiolex demonstrated reductions in seizure frequency from baseline of 56% and 47%, respectively, for the lower- and higher-dose treatments in phase 3 studies in Dravet syndrome patients.&nbsp; Suffice it to say, these could be highly competitive indications for the foreseeable future.</p>\n<h2>Marathon Digital Holdings: Implied sales increase of 12,629%</h2>\n<p>Now, if you want pedal-to-the-metal growth, look no further than <b>Marathon Digital Holdings</b> (NASDAQ:MARA). After reporting a meager $4.36 million in sales in 2020, Wall Street anticipates full-year sales will climb to $555 million by 2023. That's an increase of 12,629%.</p>\n<p>If you're wondering how sales growth of this magnitude is possible for a company not involved in drug development, look no further than cryptocurrencies.</p>\n<p>Marathon Digital is a cryptocurrency mining company. It operates a farm of high-powered computing devices designed to solve complex mathematical equations that validate groups of transactions (known as a block) as valid on a digital currency's blockchain. For being the first to validate a block, Marathon is paid a block reward. This reward is typically a set amount of digital tokens from the digital currency being mined.</p>\n<p>In Marathon's case, it's mining <b>Bitcoin</b> (CRYPTO:BTC), the largest cryptocurrency in the world by market cap. Being the first to mine a Bitcoin block results in the company being awarded 6.25 Bitcoin tokens, which were worth a cool $292,000, as of Aug. 30.</p>\n<p>The reason Marathon's sales are skyrocketing so quickly is because it's in the midst of deploying <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the largest Bitcoin-mining operations in the United States. As of the beginning of August, approximately 30,100 miners were operating, with another 103,000 ordered and yet to be installed. By the end of the first quarter of 2022, Marathon should have north of 100,000 miners in operation, with all 133,120 up and running by July 2022.</p>\n<p>Though Marathon is the fastest-growing of these three hypergrowth stocks, it's also arguably the most dangerous investment of this trio. That's because it's entirely dependent on external factors, such as interest in, and the price of, Bitcoin -- and not innovation.</p>\n<p>What's more, the barrier to entry in the cryptocurrency mining space is virtually nonexistent. As time passes, it's going to be tougher for Marathon to successfully mine Bitcoin.</p>\n<p>As the icing on the cake, Bitcoin's block rewards halve every four years. By 2024, only 3.125 Bitcoin tokens will be paid for validating a block. Essentially, Marathon is competing against a growing number of mining companies for a reward that's shrinking. It simply doesn't sound like an operating model with long-term staying power.</p>","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>3 Hypergrowth Stocks Expected to Increase Sales 1,185% to 12,629% by 2023</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\">\n3 Hypergrowth Stocks Expected to Increase Sales 1,185% to 12,629% by 2023\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-03 22:18 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/03/3-hypergrowth-stocks-increase-sales-1185-to-12629/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Since the end of the Great Recession in 2009, growth stocks have thrived.

We are working closely to support those affected,\" a company representative said.The move follows other recent job cuts at Sea. Staff at Booyah!, a gaming livestream app, which is part of Sea's gaming unit Garena, were told they would be let go and the app would no longer be updated, separate sources have told Reuters, adding that projects at Sea's development unit were also shut down.Earlier this year, media reports also said Shopee had shed headcount in Southeast Asia, Mexico and Latin America. Shopee declined to comment on those reports.PESSIMISTIC TONEAs recently as March, Sea said it would continue to invest in Shopee, which competes with Alibaba Group Holding's    Southeast Asian arm Lazada, and that growth for the unit remained at the top of its mind.But last month, Sea withdrew its e-commerce forecast for the year. Founder and CEO Forrest Li noted an increasingly uncertain market environment and stressed the need to prioritise profitability and efficiency. Sea reported a net loss of $931 million in the second quarter, more than double the loss it made in the same period a year earlier.\"Their tone has never been more pessimistic,\" said Ke Yan, lead analyst at Singapore-based DZT Research, who added that Sea's strategy of using Garena's cash flow to compensate for Shopee's cash burn was unsustainable.Sea's handling of the layoffs was \"ugly and embarrassing\" and likely to hurt its reputation, he said.Sea saw its market value soar to more than $200 billion last October as its Garena unit surged in popularity during the pandemic but its shares have tumbled since then and are now worth just $27 billion.Singapore's Ministry of Manpower said relevant authorities were aware of complaints about Shopee and it was in touch with the company to find out more, but it also said in such situations the parties should work out an amicable solution in good faith.The four people interviewed by Reuters said that as compensation Shopee has offered a month's salary and in cases where people have flown from abroad, it will reimburse the cost of flight tickets and temporary accommodation.While the potential for legal action has been discussed in the WeChat Group, those left hanging by Shopee are most concerned with finding new work.\"The cost of taking legal action is too high. I just want to move on and find a new job,\" said one of the four people interviewed by Reuters who declined to be identified.For his part, Wang wants to continue his job search in Singapore.\"The cost of returning to China is too huge, it is very hard to find a new job given the economic situation there,\" he said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":668,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9903147613,"gmtCreate":1658991902332,"gmtModify":1676536240856,"author":{"id":"3576272850907921","authorId":"3576272850907921","name":"Kai85","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/891461910f6ea77967581c6a3a889860","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576272850907921","authorIdStr":"3576272850907921"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9903147613","repostId":"2254385381","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2254385381","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1658980821,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2254385381?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-07-28 12:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. Consumers Are \"Trading Down.\" How to Play It With Options","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2254385381","media":"Barrons","summary":"American consumers, one of the greatest economic forces in the history of the world, are nervous.Inv","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>American consumers, one of the greatest economic forces in the history of the world, are nervous.</p><p>Investors may be debating whether the economy will fall into a recession as the Federal Reserve normalizes interest rates, but consumers aren’t waiting for an answer.
