Although the Federal Reserve prefers to focus on core readings from another gauge known as the personal-consumption-expenditures index, or PCE, the CPI numbers matter because of their influence on household expectations.<br/><br/>Despite the expected lack of progress in the Federal Reserve’s efforts to bring inflation sustainably back to its 2% target and the risk that inflation might go higher from here, “we still may not have any major asset-price depreciation,” said trader Gang Hu of New York hedge fund WinShore Capital Partners.<br/><br/>Hu has made a string of prescient calls in the past few years that make his views worth paying attention to. In February of 2023, he said inflation could easily take more than a year to decline by enough for the Fed to cut rates, which has turned out to be the case. In early July of the same year, Hu said markets were caught in a “self-defeating feedback loop” on inflation that made it likely the Fed would need to keep raising rates from levels of 5%-5.25%. Less than three weeks later, the Fed delivered another quarter-point increase, lifting its fed-funds rate target to 5.25%-5.5%, where it has remained since.<br/><br/>A year before that, in July 2022, the trader said inflation “is going to be stickier than most people imagine’’ — another take that has come to pass.<br/><br/>Now, Hu lays out a case for why the U.S. economy and financial markets appear to be shifting into a new stage of the current inflation era, one in which prices on all major assets can continue to climb even if the Fed can’t put a meaningful dent in price gains or start cutting interest rates. He boils it down to a combination of different factors — ranging from a greater division between winners versus losers among American businesses, $1.2 trillion in fiscal support that was signed into law by President Joe Biden in March, and a surge of immigration that’s helping the world’s largest economy to keep generating jobs.<br/><br/>Friday’s nonfarm-payrolls report showed the U.S. economy created 303,000 jobs in March, or 50% more than had been expected by economists. That capped off a week in which persistent inflation concerns stemming from a string of hotter-than-expected data translated into what’s known as a reflation trade — sending long-term Treasury yields to November highs, crude oil to its highest since October, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average to its worst day in more than a year on Thursday.<br/><br/>Thursday’s trading — which reflected fears about the prospect of higher-for-longer interest rates and tensions between Israel and Iran — gave way to a different kind of sentiment on Friday. On the final trading day of the week, investors, traders and analysts looked at March’s strong jobs report as good news, while sticking with the notion that inflation won’t likely be a major problem in the months ahead.<br/><br/>Even traders of derivatives-like instruments known as fixings, who are expecting 3%-plus CPI reports into summer, did not seem to be broadcasting any alarm over the trajectory of price gains yet.<br/><br/>“My thoughts are that the strength of the economy is a little surprising, and a lot of it is about fiscal spending,” Hu said via phone on Friday after the March jobs report. “This kind of support will certainly generate an inflation issue or at least an inflation risk. But the case for runaway inflation is still not there, and instead it is asset prices that could run out of control.”<br/><br/>A U.S. economy supported by fiscal policy “separates the winners from losers, and there will be winners and losers,” he said. Hu puts major technology companies in the first camp because they probably “don’t care” whether interest rates are “3%, 4% or 5%.” Meanwhile, smaller companies, such as startups, tend to land in the second camp, along with U.S. consumers, who are struggling with higher interest payments following the Fed’s string of rate hikes in 2022 and 2023, he said.<br/><br/>The addition of millions of immigrants to the labor force over the past few years is also helping the U.S. to create more jobs than might otherwise be the case and to keep growing without overheating, according to economists.<br/><br/>This all adds up to “what will probably mean more asset inflation than consumer inflation,” according to Hu.<br/><br/>“U.S. inflation doesn’t get to the 2% target and the Fed’s job becomes harder,” requiring policy makers to keep a lid on expectations by talking tough about the price-stability side of their dual mandate without necessarily following through on their median forecast for three quarter-point rate cuts this year, he said. “Because the economy will be so bifurcated between winners and losers, the Fed’s economic models might be less useful and there will be too much uncertainty over what the central bank should do” as long as inflation trends around 3%.<br/><br/>A week ago, the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 ended at record highs to cap solid first-quarter performances.<br/><br/>April has gotten off to a shakier start, however. Though investors responded positively to the March jobs report by sending all three major stock indexes to higher finishes on Friday, the Dow Jones Industrial DJIA, S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite all ended lower for the week. Meanwhile, Treasurys sold off, pushing 10- and 30-year yields to the highest closing levels since Nov. 27. Gold hit another all-time high and oil prices secured an almost 5% weekly gain.</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>Inflation May Not Fall for Months.

China’s slowing economy, rising competition and attempts at entering new verticals haven’t always worked out as expected. Alibaba stock could be in trouble.</p><p>Trading at such discounted valuations, investors wonder whether now is a good time to scoop up Alibaba stock cheap or will they be catching a falling knife? Amid the gloom surrounding the online retailer there are rays of light. Let’s check out what’s good behind the stock, the bad and the downright ugly before rendering a decision.</p><h2 id=\"id_3637266253\">A Closer Look at Alibaba Stock</h2><p>Alibaba is the world’s largest e-commerce business in terms of gross merchandise value. Its Tmall and Taobao e-commerce platforms remain the company’s primary revenue and growth drivers.</p><p>They allow it to build out its cloud services business Alibaba Cloud while also supporting Alibaba’s global expansion efforts. </p><p>Internationally, the cross-border AliExpress unit enabled its International Digital Commerce Group to see a 44% increase in revenue to $4 billion. AliExpress itself saw 60% order growth.</p><p>The e-commerce giant also announced it would hike its share repurchase program by $25 billion, for a total of $35.3 billion through 2027. In the quarter ending March 2024, it bought $4.8 billion worth of Alibaba stock. That is the second largest share repurchase amount since going public. </p><h2 id=\"id_2213324251\">BABA Coughs and Stalls</h2><p>Still, Alibaba’s business is stalling. Alibaba’s gross merchandise volume was down for the year ending in March 2023, though through the first nine months of the current fiscal year GMV nominally improved.</p><p>It was forced to scrap its spinoff of its Cainiao logistics business. Instead, Alibaba will buy the remaining portion it doesn’t own. IPO conditions are not conducive and Alibaba needs to reinforce its e-commerce business to contend with the inroads its rivals made.</p><p>Efforts to enter new verticals while restructuring its business haven’t gone according to plan.</p><h2 id=\"id_1713443961\">Things Could Get Worse</h2><p>Competition is fierce and only growing more intense. Alibaba is losing market share to <strong>PDD Holdings</strong> (NASDAQ:<strong>PDD</strong>), the owner of the ubiquitous Temu website.</p><p>You can’t go anywhere without the deep discount website pushing some gadget at a crazy cheap price. It was the most downloaded iPhone app in 2023, blunting Alibaba’s own expansion efforts in the U.S.</p><p>Similarly, the short-form video platform Douyin from <strong>ByteDance</strong> is expanding exponentially in China. Douyin is essentially the TikTok platform for China minus all the vapid content the latter carries.</p><p>The video site is also a growing retail e-commerce platform and growing far faster than Alibaba, <strong>JD.com</strong> (NASDAQ:<strong>JD</strong>) or PDD’s Pinduoduo, according to eMarketer.</p><p>Douyin saw a 256% increase in GMV for local life services such as restaurants, local brick-and-mortar businesses and lifestyle activity providers last year.</p><p>Having to fight a battle on two fronts, Alibaba is losing but not all hope is lost. As meteoric as Temu’s rise has been, it is not sustainable. An analysis by <em>Wired</em> found PDD is losing $30 on every sale it makes.</p><p>China Merchants Securities also estimates Temu is losing $588 million to $954 million a year. Essentially PDD is subsidizing Temu’s early growth in a bid to win market share but it will have to cut back eventually and raise prices. Alibaba’s efforts are much more sensible and sustainable.</p><h2 id=\"id_2876214428\">The Verdict</h2><p>There is no question Alibaba stock looks attractive at 13 times trailing earnings, 8 times next year’s estimates with Wall Street forecasting long-term 10% compounded annual growth for earnings.</p><p>Yet operating income is tumbling and net profits plummeted 77% from the year-ago period. The e-commerce giant has plenty of cash on its balance sheet.</p><p>However, it will be using that to invest in its various growth efforts, and Alibaba hasn’t shown yet how it will effectively fight back against the competition.</p><p>For those reasons, I’d cautiously suggest buying only a small stake in BABA stock. You can always increase your purchase on any weakness. Buying nowprevents the stock from running away from you if it should reverse course.</p></body></html>","source":"investorplace_stock_picks","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

China’s slowing economy, rising competition and attempts at entering new verticals haven’t always worked out as expected. Alibaba stock could be in trouble.Trading at such discounted valuations, investors wonder whether now is a good time to scoop up Alibaba stock cheap or will they be catching a falling knife? Amid the gloom surrounding the online retailer there are rays of light. Let’s check out what’s good behind the stock, the bad and the downright ugly before rendering a decision.A Closer Look at Alibaba StockAlibaba is the world’s largest e-commerce business in terms of gross merchandise value. Its Tmall and Taobao e-commerce platforms remain the company’s primary revenue and growth drivers.They allow it to build out its cloud services business Alibaba Cloud while also supporting Alibaba’s global expansion efforts. Internationally, the cross-border AliExpress unit enabled its International Digital Commerce Group to see a 44% increase in revenue to $4 billion. AliExpress itself saw 60% order growth.The e-commerce giant also announced it would hike its share repurchase program by $25 billion, for a total of $35.3 billion through 2027. In the quarter ending March 2024, it bought $4.8 billion worth of Alibaba stock. That is the second largest share repurchase amount since going public. BABA Coughs and StallsStill, Alibaba’s business is stalling. Alibaba’s gross merchandise volume was down for the year ending in March 2023, though through the first nine months of the current fiscal year GMV nominally improved.It was forced to scrap its spinoff of its Cainiao logistics business. Instead, Alibaba will buy the remaining portion it doesn’t own. IPO conditions are not conducive and Alibaba needs to reinforce its e-commerce business to contend with the inroads its rivals made.Efforts to enter new verticals while restructuring its business haven’t gone according to plan.Things Could Get WorseCompetition is fierce and only growing more intense. Alibaba is losing market share to PDD Holdings (NASDAQ:PDD), the owner of the ubiquitous Temu website.You can’t go anywhere without the deep discount website pushing some gadget at a crazy cheap price. It was the most downloaded iPhone app in 2023, blunting Alibaba’s own expansion efforts in the U.S.Similarly, the short-form video platform Douyin from ByteDance is expanding exponentially in China. Douyin is essentially the TikTok platform for China minus all the vapid content the latter carries.The video site is also a growing retail e-commerce platform and growing far faster than Alibaba, JD.com (NASDAQ:JD) or PDD’s Pinduoduo, according to eMarketer.Douyin saw a 256% increase in GMV for local life services such as restaurants, local brick-and-mortar businesses and lifestyle activity providers last year.Having to fight a battle on two fronts, Alibaba is losing but not all hope is lost. As meteoric as Temu’s rise has been, it is not sustainable. An analysis by Wired found PDD is losing $30 on every sale it makes.China Merchants Securities also estimates Temu is losing $588 million to $954 million a year. Essentially PDD is subsidizing Temu’s early growth in a bid to win market share but it will have to cut back eventually and raise prices. Alibaba’s efforts are much more sensible and sustainable.The VerdictThere is no question Alibaba stock looks attractive at 13 times trailing earnings, 8 times next year’s estimates with Wall Street forecasting long-term 10% compounded annual growth for earnings.Yet operating income is tumbling and net profits plummeted 77% from the year-ago period. The e-commerce giant has plenty of cash on its balance sheet.However, it will be using that to invest in its various growth efforts, and Alibaba hasn’t shown yet how it will effectively fight back against the competition.For those reasons, I’d cautiously suggest buying only a small stake in BABA stock. You can always increase your purchase on any weakness. Buying nowprevents the stock from running away from you if it should reverse course.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":76,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":274522426871872,"gmtCreate":1708060008007,"gmtModify":1708060010411,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/M44U.SI\">$Mapletree Log Tr(M44U.SI)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v> ","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/M44U.SI\">$Mapletree Log Tr(M44U.SI)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v> ","text":"$Mapletree Log Tr(M44U.SI)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/274522426871872","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":348,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":272362061893896,"gmtCreate":1707532438574,"gmtModify":1707532443011,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Capital boosting in play money makes more money ","listText":"Capital boosting in play money makes more money ","text":"Capital boosting in play money makes more money","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/272362061893896","repostId":"1104886890","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1104886890","pubTimestamp":1707526292,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1104886890?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2024-02-10 08:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. Weekly Review: Stock Market Hits Highs As AI Plays Arm, Palantir Skyrocket","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1104886890","media":"Investor's Business Daily","summary":"The stock market rally generally advanced with the S&P 500 hitting 5,000 for the first time and the Nasdaq at its best levels in over two years.

The data analytics firm's revenue rose 20% to $608 million, slightly topping. Government revenue rose 11% to $324 million, missing estimates. But commercial revenue rose 32% to $284 million. For 2024, Palantir guided slightly higher on revenue, led by commercial growth. Shares of the AI play skyrocketed.</p><h2 id=\"id_718956412\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Arm Rockets On Earnings</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Chip designer <strong>Arm Holdings</strong> (<strong>ARM</strong>) delivered better-than-expected December-quarter results and guidance, sending its shares up nearly 50% on the news. Arm was the latest semiconductor stock to get a boost from exposure to the red-hot artificial intelligence market. Power-chip maker <strong>Monolithic Power Systems</strong> (<strong>MPWR</strong>) also jumped on its AI-fueled fourth-quarter results and outlook. Other chip stocks rising on upbeat earnings reports included audio-chip supplier <strong>Cirrus Logic</strong> (<strong>CRUS</strong>) and tracking-chip maker <strong>Impinj</strong> (<strong>PI</strong>).

But shares tumbled Friday following earnings, slashing big weekly gains. <strong>PayPal</strong> (<strong>PYPL</strong>) said Q4 earnings rose 19% as revenue climbed 9% to $8 billion, both exceeding forecasts. But the digital payments giant guided low on 2024 EPS.</p><h2 id=\"id_1893320889\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Uber Drives Higher</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Ride-hailing giant <strong>Uber Technologies</strong> (<strong>UBER</strong>) said Q4 earnings surged 127% to 66 cents per share, buoyed by investment gains, crushing views for 16 cents. Revenue climbed 15% to $9.9 billion, slightly topping estimates. Gross bookings grew 22% to $37.6 billion, edging past views.

Revenue guidance also was weak. PINS stock tumbled from a two-year high.</p><h2 id=\"id_878842737\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Cybersecurity Results Mixed</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Cybersecurity firms topped EPS views, often easily, but some diverged on other metrics.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>Fortinet</strong> (<strong>FTNT</strong>) reported Q4 earnings, revenue and billings that topped analyst estimates amid lowered expectations, with EPS up 16%, revenue up 10% and billings up 8.5%. The cybersecurity giant guided in line for 2024 EPS.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>Qualys</strong> (<strong>QLYS</strong>) reported Q4 EPS growth of 38%, topping views, while a 10% revenue gain just met. Guidance was weak for 2024. Also, <strong>Microsoft</strong> (<strong>MSFT</strong>) will end its marketing pact with the security vulnerability management services firm on May 1.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>Tenable</strong> (<strong>TENB</strong>) reported Q4 EPS of 25 cents, up 108%, easily beating views.

Revenue of $270.9 million was well above views, with the 85% growth accelerating. ELF guided higher for the full year. Shares fell on results but rose for the week, right at all-time highs.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Estee Lauder earnings fell 43%, the seventh straight decline but far above consensus. Net sales fell 7% to $4.28 billion, also beating. The company will cut 3%-5% of staff as part of restructuring.

Shares reversed lower.</p><h2 id=\"id_3294162149\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Disney Soars On Earnings, Big News</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Disney reported a 23% EPS gain, well above views. Revenue rose a fraction to $23.55 billion, just missing. Disney+ subscribers fell slightly after a price hike, but still beat views. The Dow entertainment giant raised its full-year earnings target, saying it's on track to "meet or exceed" its target of achieving $7.5 billion in annual savings by the end of fiscal 2024. Disney said it's buying a $1.5 billion stake in "Fornite" developer Epic Games, pending regulatory approval. Disney+ secured the streaming rights to "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour." Also, Disney's ESPN, <strong>Fox</strong> (<strong>FOXA</strong>) and <strong>Warner Bros. Discovery</strong> (<strong>WBD</strong>) will launch a sports streaming service this fall. Shares surged to their best level in nearly two years.</p><h2 id=\"id_1616894029\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Expedia Tumbles On Bookings</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>Expedia earnings</strong> slightly beat views, but gross bookings were a little light. Also, <strong>Expedia</strong> (<strong>EXPE</strong>) CEO Peter Kern will step down May 13, with senior exec Ariane Gorin stepping in. Shares of the online travel site, which had broken out ahead of results, sold off Friday. <strong>Hilton Worldwide</strong> (<strong>HLT</strong>) topped EPS with a 6% gain. Revenue rose 7% to $2.61 billion, in line with views and with growth slowing for a third straight quarter. Hilton's 2024 EPS guidance was a little light. Shares were little changed for the week around record highs.</p><h2 id=\"id_2604237437\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Chipotle Growth Heats Up</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>Chipotle Mexican Grill</strong> (<strong>CMG</strong>) earnings rose 25% while revenue rose 15% to $2.5 billion. Both beat views, with growth picking up from Q3. <strong>McDonald's</strong> (<strong>MCD</strong>) EPS rose 14%, beating. Revenue climbed 9% to $6.41 billion, slightly missing as the Mideast conflict took a toll. KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell parent <strong>Yum Brands</strong> (<strong>YUM</strong>) missed views amid Mideast headwinds, with EPS down 4% and sales edging higher to $2.03 billion. Chipotle stock jumped to a new high. MCD fell on earnings but pared weekly losses. Yum rose slightly.</p><h2 id=\"id_1912964859\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Caterpillar, Terex Earnings Mixed</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>Caterpillar</strong> (<strong>CAT</strong>) reported Q4 adjusted EPS of $5.23, up 35% from a year ago and 47 cents ahead of estimates. Revenue grew 3% to $17.07 billion, roughly as expected. End results were stronger, with dealer inventories down by $900 million. The Dow giant sees flattish 2024 sales, but raised its margin guidance. CAT stock rose modestly, hitting a record high. <strong>Terex</strong> (<strong>TEX</strong>) earnings just topped views, while revenue slightly missed. The maker of aerial work platforms and materials processing equipment gave so-so guidance. Terex fell on earnings, erasing modest weekly gains.</p><h2 id=\"id_2950716114\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Biotech Earnings Diverge</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Biotech earnings were a split bag as <strong>Amgen</strong> (<strong>AMGN</strong>) and <strong>Vertex Pharmaceuticals</strong> (<strong>VRTX</strong>) beat fourth-quarter expectations, but <strong>Gilead Sciences</strong> (<strong>GILD</strong>) came in with light earnings and a narrow sales beat. On the flip side, <strong>Neurocrine Biosciences</strong> (<strong>NBIX</strong>) beat profit expectations, but sales came in light. Neurocrine guided to $2.1 billion to $2.2 billion in full-year sales of its bread-and-butter drug, Ingrezza, a treatment for tardive dyskinesia. That was slightly ahead of estimates. But Gilead's earnings guidance missed forecasts at the midpoint. For Amgen and Vertex, analysts focused on obesity and cystic fibrosis treatments, respectively. Amgen showed an increasing dose of its weight-loss drug led to 14.5% weight loss over 85 days, and Vertex said its next-generation triple-drug approach to cystic fibrosis outperformed its approved triplet, Trikafta, in two Phase 3 studies. All four biotech stocks fell for the week.</p><h2 id=\"id_525856133\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Trucking Stocks Roll On Earnings</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>ArcBest</strong> (<strong>ARCB</strong>) and <strong>XPO</strong> (<strong>XPO</strong>) reported better-than-expected earnings. Less-than-truckload carrier ArcBest reported a 2% EPS gain, ending a four-quarter string of year-over-year declines. Revenue fell 6%, but came in better than the double-digit declines in the prior three periods. XPO, with heavy less-than-truckload exposure, reported smaller year-over-year drops, with EPS off 23% and revenue down 9%. Both ARCB and XPO gapped higher in huge weeks, with several other trucking firms cruising higher.</p><h2 id=\"id_2043946386\" style=\"text-align: start;\">Ford, Toyota Jump On Earnings</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>Ford</strong> (<strong>F</strong>) joined <strong>General Motors</strong> (<strong>GM</strong>) in providing a bullish 2024 outlook after a less harsh-than-expected report for the final quarter of 2023. Ford earnings tumbled 43% in Q4 but easily beat views. Revenue rose 4% to $46 billion, defying views for a decline. Profit from Ford's commercial vehicle and combustion vehicle segments offset steep losses from its emerging electric-vehicle unit. Ford said it will launch next-gen EVs "only when they can be profitable." <strong>Toyota</strong> (<strong>TM</strong>) and <strong>Honda</strong> (<strong>HMC</strong>) also boosted their profit forecasts, thanks in part to growing demand for hybrid vehicles. All three auto stocks jumped, with Toyota soaring to a record high.</p><h2 id=\"id_1757444124\" style=\"text-align: start;\">In Brief</h2><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>Cloudfare</strong> (<strong>NET</strong>) reported a 166% EPS gain while Q4 revenue climbed 32% to $362.5 million, both beating.

The Chinese e-commerce and cloud-computing giant also announced a $25 billion buyback. Shares fell solidly.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong>O'Reilly Automotive</strong> (<strong>ORLY</strong>) reported an 11% EPS gain, slightly beating.

For the week, the S&P added 1.4%, while the Nasdaq gained 2.3%. The Dow finished flat. All three major averages notched their fifth straight winning week and 14th positive week in 15. AI plays Palantir (PLTR) and Arm Holdings (ARM) became the latest AI plays to surge on earnings. Eli Lilly (LLY) kept running on its results. Several cybersecurity firms rallied on earnings. Snap (SNAP) crashed on weak revenue.AI-Fueled Market Rally Hits New HighsThe Nasdaq led, fueled by AI-related earnings, climbing to a two-year highs. The S&P 500 advanced modestly to a fresh record high. The Dow Jones was little changed, but near all-time peaks as well. The Russell 2000 rebounded back above key levels. The 10-year Treasury yield jumped back above key levels.Palantir Skyrockets On Commercial GrowthPalantir (PLTR) said Q4 earnings using generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, met views for a 100% gain. The data analytics firm's revenue rose 20% to $608 million, slightly topping. Government revenue rose 11% to $324 million, missing estimates. But commercial revenue rose 32% to $284 million. For 2024, Palantir guided slightly higher on revenue, led by commercial growth. Shares of the AI play skyrocketed.Arm Rockets On EarningsChip designer Arm Holdings (ARM) delivered better-than-expected December-quarter results and guidance, sending its shares up nearly 50% on the news. Arm was the latest semiconductor stock to get a boost from exposure to the red-hot artificial intelligence market. Power-chip maker Monolithic Power Systems (MPWR) also jumped on its AI-fueled fourth-quarter results and outlook. Other chip stocks rising on upbeat earnings reports included audio-chip supplier Cirrus Logic (CRUS) and tracking-chip maker Impinj (PI). Chip stocks falling on weak guidance included Alpha & Omega Semiconductor (AOSL), Diodes (DIOD) and Rambus (RMBS). Automotive chipmaker NXP Semiconductors (NXPI) and Onsemi (ON) guided lower, but rallied as analysts described their outlooks as better than feared.Lilly Soars On Weight-Loss DrugsEli Lilly (LLY) handily beat Wall Street's fourth-quarter expectations with adjusted income of $2.49 per share and $9.35 billion in sales, up a respective 19% and 28% year over year. Guidance for 2024 was also promising. High points included diabetes drug Mounjaro, which brought in $2.21 billion in sales, and weight-loss drug Zepbound, which delivered more than double what analysts expected at $175.8 million in sales. Lilly also said tirzepatide, the chemical backbone behind Mounjaro and Zepbound, showed promise in treating a liver disease known by the shorthand MASH.Affirm, PayPal Fall On EarningsAffirm Holdings (AFRM) reported a smaller-than-expected loss while revenue jumped 48% to $591.1 million, the third straight quarter of accelerating growth. But shares tumbled Friday following earnings, slashing big weekly gains. PayPal (PYPL) said Q4 earnings rose 19% as revenue climbed 9% to $8 billion, both exceeding forecasts. But the digital payments giant guided low on 2024 EPS.Uber Drives HigherRide-hailing giant Uber Technologies (UBER) said Q4 earnings surged 127% to 66 cents per share, buoyed by investment gains, crushing views for 16 cents. Revenue climbed 15% to $9.9 billion, slightly topping estimates. Gross bookings grew 22% to $37.6 billion, edging past views. It may update shareholder return plans at its Feb. 14 analyst day.Snap, Pinterest Skid On Weak RevenueSnap (SNAP) reported a 43% EPS decline, though that beat views. The Snapchat parent also guided up on Q1 EBITDA. But shares crashed as Snap fell short on Q4 revenue. Pinterest (PINS) earnings nearly doubled, just topping consensus. Revenue rose 12% but missed views. Revenue guidance also was weak. PINS stock tumbled from a two-year high.Cybersecurity Results MixedCybersecurity firms topped EPS views, often easily, but some diverged on other metrics.Fortinet (FTNT) reported Q4 earnings, revenue and billings that topped analyst estimates amid lowered expectations, with EPS up 16%, revenue up 10% and billings up 8.5%. The cybersecurity giant guided in line for 2024 EPS.Qualys (QLYS) reported Q4 EPS growth of 38%, topping views, while a 10% revenue gain just met. Guidance was weak for 2024. Also, Microsoft (MSFT) will end its marketing pact with the security vulnerability management services firm on May 1.Tenable (TENB) reported Q4 EPS of 25 cents, up 108%, easily beating views. Revenue rose 16% to $213.3 million, modestly above consensus.Rapid7 (RPD) reported Q4 earnings and revenue that rose 106% and 11%, respectively, topping estimates. But an 11% billings gain fell short.CyberArk Software (CYBR) said EPS jumped 406%, crushing views, while revenue rose 32% to $223.1 million, above forecasts. CyberArk guided up on 2024 revenue.Fortinet and Tenable rose above buy points during the week, while Cloudflare skyrocketed and CyberArk gapped up to a new high. Rapid7 rose modestly, around a buy point. Qualys plunged.ELF Earnings Dwarf Rivals'ELF Beauty (ELF) reported a 54% EPS gain, ending four quarters of triple-digit growth, but easily beating fiscal Q3 views. Revenue of $270.9 million was well above views, with the 85% growth accelerating. ELF guided higher for the full year. Shares fell on results but rose for the week, right at all-time highs.Estee Lauder earnings fell 43%, the seventh straight decline but far above consensus. Net sales fell 7% to $4.28 billion, also beating. The company will cut 3%-5% of staff as part of restructuring. Shares jumped but then slashed gains. Coty (COTY) earnings rose 14% and sales advanced 13%, both modestly beating; the company also guiding higher for the year. Shares reversed lower.Disney Soars On Earnings, Big NewsDisney reported a 23% EPS gain, well above views. Revenue rose a fraction to $23.55 billion, just missing. Disney+ subscribers fell slightly after a price hike, but still beat views. The Dow entertainment giant raised its full-year earnings target, saying it's on track to \"meet or exceed\" its target of achieving $7.5 billion in annual savings by the end of fiscal 2024. Disney said it's buying a $1.5 billion stake in \"Fornite\" developer Epic Games, pending regulatory approval. Disney+ secured the streaming rights to \"Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour.\" Also, Disney's ESPN, Fox (FOXA) and Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) will launch a sports streaming service this fall. Shares surged to their best level in nearly two years.Expedia Tumbles On BookingsExpedia earnings slightly beat views, but gross bookings were a little light. Also, Expedia (EXPE) CEO Peter Kern will step down May 13, with senior exec Ariane Gorin stepping in. Shares of the online travel site, which had broken out ahead of results, sold off Friday. Hilton Worldwide (HLT) topped EPS with a 6% gain. Revenue rose 7% to $2.61 billion, in line with views and with growth slowing for a third straight quarter. Hilton's 2024 EPS guidance was a little light. Shares were little changed for the week around record highs.Chipotle Growth Heats UpChipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) earnings rose 25% while revenue rose 15% to $2.5 billion. Both beat views, with growth picking up from Q3. McDonald's (MCD) EPS rose 14%, beating. Revenue climbed 9% to $6.41 billion, slightly missing as the Mideast conflict took a toll. KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell parent Yum Brands (YUM) missed views amid Mideast headwinds, with EPS down 4% and sales edging higher to $2.03 billion. Chipotle stock jumped to a new high. MCD fell on earnings but pared weekly losses. Yum rose slightly.Caterpillar, Terex Earnings MixedCaterpillar (CAT) reported Q4 adjusted EPS of $5.23, up 35% from a year ago and 47 cents ahead of estimates. Revenue grew 3% to $17.07 billion, roughly as expected. End results were stronger, with dealer inventories down by $900 million. The Dow giant sees flattish 2024 sales, but raised its margin guidance. CAT stock rose modestly, hitting a record high. Terex (TEX) earnings just topped views, while revenue slightly missed. The maker of aerial work platforms and materials processing equipment gave so-so guidance. Terex fell on earnings, erasing modest weekly gains.Biotech Earnings DivergeBiotech earnings were a split bag as Amgen (AMGN) and Vertex Pharmaceuticals (VRTX) beat fourth-quarter expectations, but Gilead Sciences (GILD) came in with light earnings and a narrow sales beat. On the flip side, Neurocrine Biosciences (NBIX) beat profit expectations, but sales came in light. Neurocrine guided to $2.1 billion to $2.2 billion in full-year sales of its bread-and-butter drug, Ingrezza, a treatment for tardive dyskinesia. That was slightly ahead of estimates. But Gilead's earnings guidance missed forecasts at the midpoint. For Amgen and Vertex, analysts focused on obesity and cystic fibrosis treatments, respectively. Amgen showed an increasing dose of its weight-loss drug led to 14.5% weight loss over 85 days, and Vertex said its next-generation triple-drug approach to cystic fibrosis outperformed its approved triplet, Trikafta, in two Phase 3 studies. All four biotech stocks fell for the week.Trucking Stocks Roll On EarningsArcBest (ARCB) and XPO (XPO) reported better-than-expected earnings. Less-than-truckload carrier ArcBest reported a 2% EPS gain, ending a four-quarter string of year-over-year declines. Revenue fell 6%, but came in better than the double-digit declines in the prior three periods. XPO, with heavy less-than-truckload exposure, reported smaller year-over-year drops, with EPS off 23% and revenue down 9%. Both ARCB and XPO gapped higher in huge weeks, with several other trucking firms cruising higher.Ford, Toyota Jump On EarningsFord (F) joined General Motors (GM) in providing a bullish 2024 outlook after a less harsh-than-expected report for the final quarter of 2023. Ford earnings tumbled 43% in Q4 but easily beat views. Revenue rose 4% to $46 billion, defying views for a decline. Profit from Ford's commercial vehicle and combustion vehicle segments offset steep losses from its emerging electric-vehicle unit. Ford said it will launch next-gen EVs \"only when they can be profitable.\" Toyota (TM) and Honda (HMC) also boosted their profit forecasts, thanks in part to growing demand for hybrid vehicles. All three auto stocks jumped, with Toyota soaring to a record high.In BriefCloudfare (NET) reported a 166% EPS gain while Q4 revenue climbed 32% to $362.5 million, both beating. The software maker, which speeds up and secures web applications, guided up on 2024.

But shares rose sharply.Roblox (RBLX) surged higher after the youth-centric video game platform beat Q4 estimates and guided higher than views for Q1 and 2024.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":258,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":272236776526064,"gmtCreate":1707502027698,"gmtModify":1707525531876,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"May the dragon year bring up the mighty Chinese n hkg stocks dragons","listText":"May the dragon year bring up the mighty Chinese n hkg stocks dragons","text":"May the dragon year bring up the mighty Chinese n hkg stocks dragons","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/272236776526064","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":284,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":272010914025736,"gmtCreate":1707446709113,"gmtModify":1707446713946,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Shorties back in force[RIP] ","listText":"Shorties back in force[RIP] ","text":"Shorties back in force[RIP]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/272010914025736","repostId":"2410746069","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2410746069","pubTimestamp":1707442133,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2410746069?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2024-02-09 09:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba Cut at Macquarie As Defense and Expansion Caps Earnings Upside","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2410746069","media":"Investing.com","summary":"Alibaba (NYSE: BABA) was cut to Neutral from Outperform by Macquarie Equity Research analyst Ellie Jiang in a note to ...(Premium-only article.

U.S.-listed shares of Alibaba were down 3.88% on Thursday.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":151,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":271642041192728,"gmtCreate":1707356653218,"gmtModify":1707356657842,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Stabilize n accumulation phase with 1 to 3 years horizon for HKD 100 break up","listText":"Stabilize n accumulation phase with 1 to 3 years horizon for HKD 100 break up","text":"Stabilize n accumulation phase with 1 to 3 years horizon for HKD 100 break up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/271642041192728","repostId":"1190722861","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":190,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":270022787481832,"gmtCreate":1706932497257,"gmtModify":1706939537922,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Long patience is required to invest in Chinese stocks with no guarantee of success ","listText":"Long patience is required to invest in Chinese stocks with no guarantee of success ","text":"Long patience is required to invest in Chinese stocks with no guarantee of success","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/270022787481832","repostId":"2408360011","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2408360011","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":1706882400,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2408360011?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2024-02-02 22:00","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Alibaba Considers Sale of Consumer Assets Including Freshippo, RT-Mart - Sources","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2408360011","media":"Reuters","summary":"HONG KONG, Feb 2 (Reuters) - Chinese internet giant Alibaba Group is looking to sell a number of consumer sector assets, including grocery business Freshippo and retailer RT-Mart, three sources with k","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>HONG KONG, Feb 2 (Reuters) - Chinese internet giant Alibaba Group is looking to sell a number of consumer sector assets, including grocery business Freshippo and retailer RT-Mart, three sources with knowledge of the situation said.</p><p>The sale plan comes as Alibaba, under chairman Joe Tsai and newly appointed chief executive Eddie Wu, has shifted focus back to its core profitable e-commerce business model while divesting non-core, loss-making units, said one of the people.</p><p>Alibaba has been in talks with strategic and financial investors about these assets, said the sources, who declined to be named as the discussions were confidential.

It has achieved comprehensive visa exemption with 22 countries, including Singapore, the Maldives, and Kazakhstan.In addition, more than 60 countries and regions grant Chinese citizens visa-free or visa-on-arrival privileges. Outbound travel for Chinese citizens has significantly improved.Wu Xi, director general of the Department of Consular Affairs of China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said the country has implemented a series of measures to facilitate people-to-people exchanges, demonstrating China's determination to promote high-level opening-up.China welcomes friends from all over the world to visit, do business, invest, and study in the country, Wu said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":266899931795592,"gmtCreate":1706171031848,"gmtModify":1706171033647,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/M44U.SI\">$Mapletree Log Tr(M44U.SI)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v> ","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/M44U.SI\">$Mapletree Log Tr(M44U.SI)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v> ","text":"$Mapletree Log Tr(M44U.SI)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/266899931795592","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":129,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":266899969527808,"gmtCreate":1706171024717,"gmtModify":1706171026558,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/M44U.SI\">$Mapletree Log Tr(M44U.SI)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v> ","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/M44U.SI\">$Mapletree Log Tr(M44U.SI)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"0\"></v-v> ","text":"$Mapletree Log Tr(M44U.SI)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/266899969527808","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":176,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":266125006205184,"gmtCreate":1705992466073,"gmtModify":1705993222532,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"China does not believe in printing more money to boost short term growth like what has been done in the west.

Its stock benefits from superior fundamentals including growth and profitability showing up in green as pictured below. However, I believe factors like geopolitical tensions can impact its ability to grow revenues in the future.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9269811d5d58a9543d0e751301795efb\" tg-width=\"371\" tg-height=\"278\"/></p><p>Quant Ratings (seekingalpha.com)</p><p>Also, it is important to check whether the high profitability being enjoyed now does not come at the expense of investing money to ensure future growth. Thus, by highlighting the areas of the business likely to be impacted by U.S. chip restrictions and showing that the capital allocation strategy does not seem geared towards addressing the risks, this thesis aims to show that it is not the right time to invest or add to your position.</p><p>Amid encouraging news about indigenous innovations in advanced chip technology, I start by highlighting how the very ingredients used for building the tech giant's intelligent cloud infrastructure are facing supply uncertainty.</p><h2 id=\"id_4130189344\">AI Chip Restrictions Starting to Bite</h2><p>Some will remember that barely three weeks back or on November 3, the company unveiled its Zhenyue 510 chip. Developed by its chip design subsidiary, T-Head, the controller IC is destined to be deployed in Alibaba's data centers to provide support for applications such as AI training, online transactions, and big data analysis. The subsidiary had previously designed both an AI (artificial intelligence) and a CPU chip.</p><p>These chips are based on RISC-V-based technology, which is open-source or can be used by anyone without requiring a license from Arm Holdings (ARM) whose chip designs are widely used throughout the world, but many are not exported to China. Now, these developments were acclaimed as important milestones in pursuit of Chinese technological independence and it came as no surprise that Alibaba’s shares gained over 2 dollars as depicted by the green arrow below when the news hit the market.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/10f305000142ae58729cfb3ccd8679a7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"258\"/></p><p>www.seekingalpha.com</p><p>This independence means not relying on U.S. components, especially those produced by Nvidia (NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), who are barred from exporting their AI-enabling GPU chips to China following the October 2022 restrictions.</p><p>However, this idea of being independent now appears in doubt as the shares dropped by more than $7 on November 15 (red arrow above) following the scrapping of IPO plans for Alibaba's Cloud Intelligence Group due to further U.S. chip restrictions. The latest ones enforced in October cover additional chips like the A800, which Nvidia designed specifically for its Chinese customers, given that it could not export its advanced A100 and H100 chips to that country. The same applies to Intel (INTC) and AMD.</p><p>According to Alibaba's press release (with the pain points underlined in red below), this will adversely impact its cloud business' ability to offer products and services.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3c4797638e3cb6326521a07e5c822bcd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"312\"/></p><p>seekingalpha.com</p><p>This news update by Alibaba confirms the risks I had already evoked in an earlier thesis last year and the next step is to quantify the impact.</p><h2 id=\"id_3182475377\">The Risks to Revenue Growth for Intelligent Cloud</h2><p>Having generated $51.4 billion for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 (Q2-2024), Cloud Intelligence Group is second only to Taobao/Tmall as shown below. Furthermore, it has grown by only 3% YoY or far below the double-digit figures of 2020-2022. One of the reasons for this gloomy performance is that the business has not fully recovered after ByteDance (TikTok owner) stopped using it for outside-of-China hosting purposes in 2021 and instead chose Amazon (AMZN) and Oracle (ORCL), following intense pressure from authorities in the U.S. on data privacy grounds.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b326572405c726af612c55aa739be572\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"170\"/></p><p>seekingalpha.com</p><p>Now, in addition to these two American public cloud providers, the Chinese company also faces competition from Microsoft (MSFT), with Azure Cloud, and Alphabet (GOOG) (GOOGL) with Google Cloud Platform, without forgetting Huawei Technologies and Tencent Holdings (OTCPK:TCEHY), in its home market.</p><p>Looking at market share for the 2021-2022 period, a report by Gartner on the worldwide Infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) industry dated July this year shows that Alibaba has trailed all others with only 2.4% growth.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/71d9426a41e14743d91f4781e164d9b7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"402\"/></p><p>Chart built using data from (www.gartner.com)</p><p>Noteworthily, in addition to computing power for normal IT (transactional) workloads, Gartner adds that customers now require more advanced analytics among other features.</p><h2 id=\"id_3346180889\">Possible Risks to Alibaba International Business too</h2><p>Now, since the company did earlier announce an upgrade of its AI infrastructure including deployment of its Tongyi Qianwen 2.0 LLM (large language model) during the Apsara Conference, it may be holding a stock of Nvidia’s previous-generation A100 GPU chips, already deployed for AI workloads. However, new restrictions ban their export to China. In these circumstances, I find it hard to identify who will buy cloud-based AI servers from the Chinese company even if it provides discounts since ChatGPT-style applications demand high-performance GPUs to work optimally.</p><p>There is worse given that the company synergizes the capabilities of its intelligent cloud infrastructure across its eCommerce platforms for example to make the shopping experience more consumer-centric by using AI applications. Chip restrictions would mean that it will have to rely on older chip models like Nvidia's V100 launched in 2017 to train its LLMs whereas competitor Amazon and others have access to the latest and faster H100 chips developed in 2022.</p><p>Therefore, restrictions may pose a competitive threat to the Chinese eCommerce and cloud computing giant's integrated business model, especially for Alibaba International Digital Commerce Group which grew by 53% YoY during the latest reported quarter. When combined with the cloud business, the international eCommerce Group represented around $99.3 billion (according to the above table) or 20% of the company's sales in Q2-2024, which is substantial. Thus, I believe that in case these two groups were to be materially impacted, the company could miss its fiscal 2025 revenue estimate of $146.4 billion as pictured below.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/903db5ffe7a60f776b5e5365f339d3bd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"192\"/></p><p>seekingalpha.com</p><p>Therefore, based on the identification of areas likely to be impacted by chip restrictions, revenue growth is at risk. In the same breath, the stock is not necessarily undervalued based on its forward price-to-sales of 1.49x, which is above the median for the Consumer Discretionary sector by more than 75%.</p><h2 id=\"id_2416155604\">Analyzing the Capital Allocation Strategy in View of Supply Risks</h2><p>Moreover, for a company that is facing risks as to the very building blocks of its AI infrastructure, you would have expected it to attract equity funding through the cloud IPO given the enormous amounts of money involved in chip production. However, with the public offering canceled, funding will be sought for the company's international eCommerce business. Now, while the objective to build a "world-leading digitalized supply chain network" seems appropriate in view of Alibaba's experience in the Chinese market, the intention of also making intensive use of AI for innovations across the platform may not be well digested by potential investors, in view of U.S. restrictions.</p><p>Furthermore, since Alibaba is already sitting on a giant cash pile of $51.5 billion (net of debt) there is less need to seek outside funding which may also imply a dilution of share ownership if equity funding is sought after.</p><p>Coming back to the AI realm, the management mentioned that it is exploring native (or domestic) solutions and that the Cloud Intelligence Group will "scale up its technology investments in AI-related software and hardware" through the use of open-source technologies like RISC-V as mentioned earlier. These points are clearly aimed at addressing the issues posed by chip restrictions, but they fall short of an investment plan including the amount being (or to be) spent, and clear milestones as to when the processors will enter production for equipping its data centers given that Alibaba cloud operates in 30 regions across the world.</p><p>On the contrary, a look at the capital expenditure during the last five quarters shows that it is on a net downtrend. Now, when subtracting this lower Capex from the cash from operations, the result is higher free cash flow. Interestingly, its FCF margin of 14.17% which is above Consumer Discretionary peers by over 170% is one of the reasons the company enjoys a profitability grade of A+, but this may be coming at a cost: not investing for future growth.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6538c30481f5a412382be12828bef7fc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"266\"/></p><p>Chart built using cash flow statement data from (seekingalpha.com)</p><p>This is especially true in the current global computing scenario when there is a fundamental paradigm change whereby the demand for IT workloads on the cloud is shifting from conventional computing to AI. This is the reason why cloud service providers like Amazon and Microsoft have been purchasing Nvidia H100 GPUs.</p><p>Now, in the absence of such a supplier from its supply chain, it is important for a cloud computing giant like Alibaba to elaborate on the amount of money it is investing in advanced chips as part of a contingency plan to continue providing an intelligent cloud infrastructure that can compete internationally.</p><h2 id=\"id_4202991450\">Strong Balance Sheet and Reorganization but Plan Needed in View of Restrictions</h2><p>In conclusion, this thesis has shown that given the risks that can affect Alibaba's results of operations and financial condition, there has been no mention of a capital allocation strategy to specifically address the issue of chip restrictions in the second quarter's earnings call, possibly because it already possesses some unused stock of advanced chips in its inventory in my view.</p><p>Moreover, given the strength of its balance sheet, and the internal reorganization that has identified cost optimization and growth opportunities, Alibaba has the financial capacity to boost indigenous production to meet its AI chip requirements, somewhat similar to what Huawei has done with its Mate 50. Furthermore, earning dividends as a way to enhance shareholder return is a positive for those who have been holding on to the stock. For this matter, in addition to the $2.5 billion of distributions to be made to shareholders, the company effected $1.7 billion of share buybacks in Q2-2024.</p><p>These are the reasons why I have a Hold rating as Alibaba also remains a strong player on its home turf with Taobao and Tmall and a market where it faces much smaller competitors in the form of JD.com (JD) and Pinduoduo. Finally, it is important to obtain an update as to how the company is tackling chip restrictions in a sustainable manner during next quarter's earnings call in February.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Its stock benefits from superior fundamentals including growth and profitability showing up in green as pictured below. However, I believe factors like geopolitical tensions can impact its ability to grow revenues in the future.Quant Ratings (seekingalpha.com)Also, it is important to check whether the high profitability being enjoyed now does not come at the expense of investing money to ensure future growth. Thus, by highlighting the areas of the business likely to be impacted by U.S. chip restrictions and showing that the capital allocation strategy does not seem geared towards addressing the risks, this thesis aims to show that it is not the right time to invest or add to your position.Amid encouraging news about indigenous innovations in advanced chip technology, I start by highlighting how the very ingredients used for building the tech giant's intelligent cloud infrastructure are facing supply uncertainty.AI Chip Restrictions Starting to BiteSome will remember that barely three weeks back or on November 3, the company unveiled its Zhenyue 510 chip. Developed by its chip design subsidiary, T-Head, the controller IC is destined to be deployed in Alibaba's data centers to provide support for applications such as AI training, online transactions, and big data analysis. The subsidiary had previously designed both an AI (artificial intelligence) and a CPU chip.These chips are based on RISC-V-based technology, which is open-source or can be used by anyone without requiring a license from Arm Holdings (ARM) whose chip designs are widely used throughout the world, but many are not exported to China. Now, these developments were acclaimed as important milestones in pursuit of Chinese technological independence and it came as no surprise that Alibaba’s shares gained over 2 dollars as depicted by the green arrow below when the news hit the market.www.seekingalpha.comThis independence means not relying on U.S. components, especially those produced by Nvidia (NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), who are barred from exporting their AI-enabling GPU chips to China following the October 2022 restrictions.However, this idea of being independent now appears in doubt as the shares dropped by more than $7 on November 15 (red arrow above) following the scrapping of IPO plans for Alibaba's Cloud Intelligence Group due to further U.S. chip restrictions. The latest ones enforced in October cover additional chips like the A800, which Nvidia designed specifically for its Chinese customers, given that it could not export its advanced A100 and H100 chips to that country. The same applies to Intel (INTC) and AMD.According to Alibaba's press release (with the pain points underlined in red below), this will adversely impact its cloud business' ability to offer products and services.seekingalpha.comThis news update by Alibaba confirms the risks I had already evoked in an earlier thesis last year and the next step is to quantify the impact.The Risks to Revenue Growth for Intelligent CloudHaving generated $51.4 billion for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 (Q2-2024), Cloud Intelligence Group is second only to Taobao/Tmall as shown below. Furthermore, it has grown by only 3% YoY or far below the double-digit figures of 2020-2022. One of the reasons for this gloomy performance is that the business has not fully recovered after ByteDance (TikTok owner) stopped using it for outside-of-China hosting purposes in 2021 and instead chose Amazon (AMZN) and Oracle (ORCL), following intense pressure from authorities in the U.S. on data privacy grounds.seekingalpha.comNow, in addition to these two American public cloud providers, the Chinese company also faces competition from Microsoft (MSFT), with Azure Cloud, and Alphabet (GOOG) (GOOGL) with Google Cloud Platform, without forgetting Huawei Technologies and Tencent Holdings (OTCPK:TCEHY), in its home market.Looking at market share for the 2021-2022 period, a report by Gartner on the worldwide Infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) industry dated July this year shows that Alibaba has trailed all others with only 2.4% growth.Chart built using data from (www.gartner.com)Noteworthily, in addition to computing power for normal IT (transactional) workloads, Gartner adds that customers now require more advanced analytics among other features.Possible Risks to Alibaba International Business tooNow, since the company did earlier announce an upgrade of its AI infrastructure including deployment of its Tongyi Qianwen 2.0 LLM (large language model) during the Apsara Conference, it may be holding a stock of Nvidia’s previous-generation A100 GPU chips, already deployed for AI workloads. However, new restrictions ban their export to China. In these circumstances, I find it hard to identify who will buy cloud-based AI servers from the Chinese company even if it provides discounts since ChatGPT-style applications demand high-performance GPUs to work optimally.There is worse given that the company synergizes the capabilities of its intelligent cloud infrastructure across its eCommerce platforms for example to make the shopping experience more consumer-centric by using AI applications. Chip restrictions would mean that it will have to rely on older chip models like Nvidia's V100 launched in 2017 to train its LLMs whereas competitor Amazon and others have access to the latest and faster H100 chips developed in 2022.Therefore, restrictions may pose a competitive threat to the Chinese eCommerce and cloud computing giant's integrated business model, especially for Alibaba International Digital Commerce Group which grew by 53% YoY during the latest reported quarter. When combined with the cloud business, the international eCommerce Group represented around $99.3 billion (according to the above table) or 20% of the company's sales in Q2-2024, which is substantial. Thus, I believe that in case these two groups were to be materially impacted, the company could miss its fiscal 2025 revenue estimate of $146.4 billion as pictured below.seekingalpha.comTherefore, based on the identification of areas likely to be impacted by chip restrictions, revenue growth is at risk. In the same breath, the stock is not necessarily undervalued based on its forward price-to-sales of 1.49x, which is above the median for the Consumer Discretionary sector by more than 75%.Analyzing the Capital Allocation Strategy in View of Supply RisksMoreover, for a company that is facing risks as to the very building blocks of its AI infrastructure, you would have expected it to attract equity funding through the cloud IPO given the enormous amounts of money involved in chip production. However, with the public offering canceled, funding will be sought for the company's international eCommerce business. Now, while the objective to build a \"world-leading digitalized supply chain network\" seems appropriate in view of Alibaba's experience in the Chinese market, the intention of also making intensive use of AI for innovations across the platform may not be well digested by potential investors, in view of U.S. restrictions.Furthermore, since Alibaba is already sitting on a giant cash pile of $51.5 billion (net of debt) there is less need to seek outside funding which may also imply a dilution of share ownership if equity funding is sought after.Coming back to the AI realm, the management mentioned that it is exploring native (or domestic) solutions and that the Cloud Intelligence Group will \"scale up its technology investments in AI-related software and hardware\" through the use of open-source technologies like RISC-V as mentioned earlier. These points are clearly aimed at addressing the issues posed by chip restrictions, but they fall short of an investment plan including the amount being (or to be) spent, and clear milestones as to when the processors will enter production for equipping its data centers given that Alibaba cloud operates in 30 regions across the world.On the contrary, a look at the capital expenditure during the last five quarters shows that it is on a net downtrend. Now, when subtracting this lower Capex from the cash from operations, the result is higher free cash flow. Interestingly, its FCF margin of 14.17% which is above Consumer Discretionary peers by over 170% is one of the reasons the company enjoys a profitability grade of A+, but this may be coming at a cost: not investing for future growth.Chart built using cash flow statement data from (seekingalpha.com)This is especially true in the current global computing scenario when there is a fundamental paradigm change whereby the demand for IT workloads on the cloud is shifting from conventional computing to AI. This is the reason why cloud service providers like Amazon and Microsoft have been purchasing Nvidia H100 GPUs.Now, in the absence of such a supplier from its supply chain, it is important for a cloud computing giant like Alibaba to elaborate on the amount of money it is investing in advanced chips as part of a contingency plan to continue providing an intelligent cloud infrastructure that can compete internationally.Strong Balance Sheet and Reorganization but Plan Needed in View of RestrictionsIn conclusion, this thesis has shown that given the risks that can affect Alibaba's results of operations and financial condition, there has been no mention of a capital allocation strategy to specifically address the issue of chip restrictions in the second quarter's earnings call, possibly because it already possesses some unused stock of advanced chips in its inventory in my view.Moreover, given the strength of its balance sheet, and the internal reorganization that has identified cost optimization and growth opportunities, Alibaba has the financial capacity to boost indigenous production to meet its AI chip requirements, somewhat similar to what Huawei has done with its Mate 50. Furthermore, earning dividends as a way to enhance shareholder return is a positive for those who have been holding on to the stock. For this matter, in addition to the $2.5 billion of distributions to be made to shareholders, the company effected $1.7 billion of share buybacks in Q2-2024.These are the reasons why I have a Hold rating as Alibaba also remains a strong player on its home turf with Taobao and Tmall and a market where it faces much smaller competitors in the form of JD.com (JD) and Pinduoduo. Finally, it is important to obtain an update as to how the company is tackling chip restrictions in a sustainable manner during next quarter's earnings call in February.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":245,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":240621277184120,"gmtCreate":1699764528040,"gmtModify":1699764531214,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a

It was part of CEO Adam Aron's plan to use money AMC has raised to diversify and make acquisitions to aid its recovery from pandemic impacts.</p><p>Hycroft needed the capital infusion to continue to operate its gold and silver mine. Hycroft is a micro-cap company, and its shares have soared more than 50% since AMC's investment.

But it's been all downhill for AMC's stock the rest of the day so far. As of 12:48 p.m. ET Friday, AMC shares were down 7%.So whatBesides the small bump after Hycroft Mining, which AMC recently invested in, provided investors its full-year 2021 update, AMC stock may also have been riding a wave of enthusiasm from retail investors who were cheering news of a planned stock split for fellow meme stock GameStop.But, of course, that has nothing to do with AMC or its prospects, and investors also probably realized that the enthusiasm from the Hycroft Mining investment was overdone.Now whatTwo weeks ago, AMC announced it was investing $27.9 million in cash for a 22% stake in Hycroft Mining, which owns the more than 70,000-acre Hycroft Mine in northern Nevada. It was part of CEO Adam Aron's plan to use money AMC has raised to diversify and make acquisitions to aid its recovery from pandemic impacts.Hycroft needed the capital infusion to continue to operate its gold and silver mine. Hycroft is a micro-cap company, and its shares have soared more than 50% since AMC's investment. Retail investors have pushed AMC stock up nearly 60% since that time.Hycroft said today that its gold production for the full year 2021 was above its previous estimates while silver production fell short of guidance. The company also raised additional capital from the equity markets on top of the AMC investment.News that the company will remain solvent and has additional funds at its disposal is good for its investors. But AMC's fortunes will not be determined by its relatively small investment in Hycroft. That dose of reality is likely why AMC shares subsequently dropped as the day's trading progressed.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":81,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9012806291,"gmtCreate":1649298581730,"gmtModify":1676534488044,"author":{"id":"3576326749731922","authorId":"3576326749731922","name":"Toby_Chua","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/82ec063fd73ccbceee82eab015cdf3fd","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/BS6.SI\">$YANGZIJIANG SHIPBLDG HLDGS LTD(BS6.SI)$</a>Good support...waiting for share holders approval for listing of YZJ financial....huat arh[smile] ","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/BS6.SI\">$YANGZIJIANG SHIPBLDG HLDGS LTD(BS6.SI)$</a>Good support...waiting for share holders approval for listing of YZJ financial....huat arh[smile] ","text":"$YANGZIJIANG SHIPBLDG HLDGS LTD(BS6.SI)$Good support...waiting for share holders approval for listing of YZJ financial....huat arh[smile]","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/6a94d2ccb460028264e10d7603139500","width":"1080","height":"1920"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9012806291","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":152,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
