Whether the tactic makes a meaningful change in the overall valuation of IBM will be an interesting case study.

Here investors can avoid a lot of the noise and pitfalls that can come with simply looking at a company's income statement, such as investment-related gains that help disguise bad bottom lines or low-margin revenue growth. There's not much to hide with respect to cash -- it either increased or it didn't. And the statement of cash flow shows you how that happened.</p>\n<p>Three companies that are doing exceptionally well with regard to generating positive free cash are <b>Align Technology&nbsp;</b>(NASDAQ:ALGN),&nbsp;<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WDAY\">Workday</a>&nbsp;</b>(NASDAQ:WDAY), and&nbsp;<b>Activision Blizzard&nbsp;</b>(NASDAQ:ATVI). And with all of these businesses growing, there's likely more of the green stuff on the way.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F639290%2Fpeople-reviewing-a-chart.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. Align Technology</h2>\n<p>Align Technology makes a variety of dentistry products, most notably its Invisalign clear aligners, which are more convenient than braces. The company makes strong margins on the products that not only help it turn a profit but generate significant cash too. Over the past two quarters, the company reported $1.4 billion in gross profit on sales of $1.9 billion, for a gross margin of 75%. And that, in turn, helped the company net $400 million in profit.</p>\n<p>What's even more impressive is that on revenue of $3.4 billion over the past 12 months, Align has generated free cash flow of $895 million -- which is some 26% of revenue. The company has consistently produced strong cash flow, and its 2020 free cash of $507 million was more than double the $243 million it brought in just three years earlier.</p>\n<p>One of the benefits of a company that generates so much cash is it can return cash to investors. While Align doesn't pay a dividend, earlier this year its board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program worth up to $1 billion, which allows repurchases to be made over the next three years.</p>\n<p>In the past year, the stock has risen more than 120%, outperforming the&nbsp;<b>S&amp;P 500</b>'s 32% gains by a wide margin. And it's easy to see why the company is a hit with investors. In its most recent quarterly results for the period ending June 30, Align's sales nearly tripled to $1 billion, and the company projects that its top line in 2021 will rise by up to 60% from the previous year. With growth like that, this healthcare stock could continue to climb even higher.</p>\n<h2>2. Workday</h2>\n<p>Workday makes cloud-based applications that can save businesses time and money through automation. At first glance, the business may not look that great on a cash basis given that it consistently posts losses. But a significant chunk of its expenses is paid out through stock-based compensation. In the fiscal year ending Jan. 31, Workday's stock-based compensation totaled more than $1 billion. Too many share issues can be problematic for a company and can drive down the share price in the process.</p>\n<p>However, Workday's share-based compensation has been relatively stable with respect to revenue; over the past three years, it has come in at around 23% of its top line.For a company that's growing, all that dilution hasn't had a terribly negative impact for shareholders -- the stock has nearly matched the S&amp;P 500, up 29% in the past year.</p>\n<p>The model won't work for all situations, but with the business generating 19% sales growth last fiscal year and the top line up 53% in two years, Workday has been a solid growth stock. The company expects 17% growth in its subscription revenue this year, which accounts for the vast majority (88%)&nbsp;of revenue.</p>\n<p>Strong revenue growth, combined with using stock-based compensation, allowed the company to net free cash flow of $1 billion last fiscal year, which represents 23% of revenue. Although it still results in dilution, stock-based compensation can provide the business some flexibility -- and at the same time give investors a bit more predictability in earnings with potentially fewer surprising share issues along the way.</p>\n<p>As businesses continue to move more of their operations to the cloud, a company like Workday could see more demand for its products and services in the future, making it an attractive growth stock to buy. Plus, with $3 billion in cash and marketable securities on its books as of the end of April, the company has plenty of options should it want to make a big splash with an acquisition.</p>\n<h2>3. Activision</h2>\n<p>Activision is the popular gaming company behind such popular titles as <i>Call of Duty</i> and&nbsp;<i>World of Warcraft</i>. It benefits from a loyal fanbase, which translates into consistency and growth. Even though investors may be down on stay-at-home stocks with the economy opening back up, Activision has continued to do remarkably well.</p>\n<p>When it released its second-quarter results on Aug. 3, the company reported revenue of $2.3 billion for the period ending June 30, which was not only higher than the $1.9 billion it reported a year earlier, but also came in higher than its guidance, which called for revenue of $2.1 billion. Over the past 12 months the business has brought in $2.5 billion in free cash flow on revenue of $8.9 billion, which is 28% of its top line.</p>\n<p>A note of caution for prospective investors: Activision has recently come under fire for its purportedly troublesome work environment, and the allegations are serious. The company said it has a law firm reviewing its procedures to help address these issues, but its president and other senior executives have departed in the wake of this situation.</p>\n<p>While the bad press has hurt the stock -- news of an employee walkout last month helped send the stock to lows not seen since last year -- it's worth remembering that investors tend to have short memories. However, the issues appear to be systemic and could have lasting implications on the company's ability to attract and retain talented employees.</p>\n<p>It remains to be seen whether this controversy will impact operations over the long-term. But with a strong, cash-generating business that continues to produce solid sales growth, Activision's stock has already started to rebound, and it could be a smart long-term buy at its current price if you're comfortable betting on a cultural turnaround.</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 Growth Stocks That Are Generating Tons of Free Cash</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 Growth Stocks That Are Generating Tons of Free Cash\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-08-19 11:07 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/18/3-growth-stocks-that-are-generating-tons-of-free-c/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>One of the easiest ways to evaluate a company's business is by looking at its statement of cash flow.

Too many share issues can be problematic for a company and can drive down the share price in the process.\nHowever, Workday's share-based compensation has been relatively stable with respect to revenue; over the past three years, it has come in at around 23% of its top line.For a company that's growing, all that dilution hasn't had a terribly negative impact for shareholders -- the stock has nearly matched the S&P 500, up 29% in the past year.\nThe model won't work for all situations, but with the business generating 19% sales growth last fiscal year and the top line up 53% in two years, Workday has been a solid growth stock. The company expects 17% growth in its subscription revenue this year, which accounts for the vast majority (88%) of revenue.\nStrong revenue growth, combined with using stock-based compensation, allowed the company to net free cash flow of $1 billion last fiscal year, which represents 23% of revenue. Although it still results in dilution, stock-based compensation can provide the business some flexibility -- and at the same time give investors a bit more predictability in earnings with potentially fewer surprising share issues along the way.\nAs businesses continue to move more of their operations to the cloud, a company like Workday could see more demand for its products and services in the future, making it an attractive growth stock to buy. Plus, with $3 billion in cash and marketable securities on its books as of the end of April, the company has plenty of options should it want to make a big splash with an acquisition.\n3. Activision\nActivision is the popular gaming company behind such popular titles as Call of Duty and World of Warcraft. It benefits from a loyal fanbase, which translates into consistency and growth. Even though investors may be down on stay-at-home stocks with the economy opening back up, Activision has continued to do remarkably well.\nWhen it released its second-quarter results on Aug. 3, the company reported revenue of $2.3 billion for the period ending June 30, which was not only higher than the $1.9 billion it reported a year earlier, but also came in higher than its guidance, which called for revenue of $2.1 billion. Over the past 12 months the business has brought in $2.5 billion in free cash flow on revenue of $8.9 billion, which is 28% of its top line.\nA note of caution for prospective investors: Activision has recently come under fire for its purportedly troublesome work environment, and the allegations are serious. The company said it has a law firm reviewing its procedures to help address these issues, but its president and other senior executives have departed in the wake of this situation.\nWhile the bad press has hurt the stock -- news of an employee walkout last month helped send the stock to lows not seen since last year -- it's worth remembering that investors tend to have short memories. However, the issues appear to be systemic and could have lasting implications on the company's ability to attract and retain talented employees.\nIt remains to be seen whether this controversy will impact operations over the long-term. But with a strong, cash-generating business that continues to produce solid sales growth, Activision's stock has already started to rebound, and it could be a smart long-term buy at its current price if you're comfortable betting on a cultural turnaround.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":977,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":833400982,"gmtCreate":1629252612846,"gmtModify":1676529980121,"author":{"id":"3576720131456704","authorId":"3576720131456704","name":"StephanieCCH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92b6ecf9837c466df852858bfcbddfdf","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576720131456704","authorIdStr":"3576720131456704"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Thanks

(The 2020 numbers are estimates, because many companies’ fiscal years don’t match the calendar.)\nWe emphasized revenue because many of these companies are at early stages and are focused on developing products and services and growing their businesses, rather than showing net income.\nTo ensure a quality set of estimates, we limited the group of companies to those covered by at least five analysts polled by FactSet. For a slight cut to risk, we also eliminated any company with less than $10 million in estimated revenue during calendar 2020. The available set of data brought the list down to 135 companies.\nHere are the 20 companies projected to have the highest compound annual growth rates (CAGR) for revenue through calendar 2023:\nClick on the tickers for more about each company.\nThe following table includes price-to-earnings ratios based on current market capitalizations and consensus net income estimates for calendar 2022 (if they are more than zero) and price-to-sales ratios based on market caps and consensus revenue estimates for calendar 2022.\nAll numbers feeding the P/E and price-to-sales ratios are in U.S. dollars.\nThe table also includes summaries of analysts’ opinions about the stocks, with share prices and price targets in local currencies where the stocks are listed.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":386,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":893132907,"gmtCreate":1628244613009,"gmtModify":1703503857234,"author":{"id":"3576720131456704","authorId":"3576720131456704","name":"StephanieCCH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92b6ecf9837c466df852858bfcbddfdf","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576720131456704","authorIdStr":"3576720131456704"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Thanks for sharing","listText":"Thanks for sharing","text":"Thanks for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/893132907","repostId":"1128779869","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":180,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":899347440,"gmtCreate":1628164780780,"gmtModify":1703502372115,"author":{"id":"3576720131456704","authorId":"3576720131456704","name":"StephanieCCH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92b6ecf9837c466df852858bfcbddfdf","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576720131456704","authorIdStr":"3576720131456704"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/899347440","repostId":"1121665544","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1121665544","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1628163411,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1121665544?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-05 19:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Begins Promoting Own Services With Exclusive 'Offers' For Apple Card Customers","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1121665544","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Apple Inc. is promoting its own services by providing “exclusive offers” to Apple Card holders.\nWhat","content":"<p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> Inc.</b>&nbsp;is promoting its own services by providing “exclusive offers” to Apple Card holders.</p>\n<p><b>What Happened</b>: A new section in the Wallet app offers special deals related to Apple’s own services for Apple Card customers, 9to5Macreported.</p>\n<p>Apple’s first offer for Apple Card owners reportedly gives free access to Apple <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NWS\">News</a>+ and unlimited coffee with any order from<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PNRA\">Panera Bread</a></b>.</p>\n<p>However, tapping on the \"Learn More\" button redirects users to a broken link, indicating that Apple is still in the process of rolling out the offer.</p>\n<p>Bloomberg journalist&nbsp;<b>Mark Gurman</b>&nbsp;also noted the Apple offer on <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a>.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c820ee97c3c12bd77e989fd5c740c6bd\" tg-width=\"560\" tg-height=\"308\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>Why It Matters</b>: Apple already provides exclusive offers from other stores or services to Apple Card users, but the latest offer indicates highlights the<b>Tim Cook</b>-led company's efforts&nbsp;to promote its own services.</p>\n<p>In April, Apple introduced new features to the Apple Card by allowing two people to “co-own” a credit card.

Constellation, for example, has made hundreds of small acquisitions while Illinois Tool Works has made perhaps 1,000. Adobe, Danaher, Fairfax, and Markel have made dozens or scores of purchases, some of considerable size. The others are all over the map in number and sizes. One thing these investors have in common is that they wait for their pitch.\nAll of these companies are organized along decentralized lines. Headquarters delegates substantial autonomy to the heads of the various businesses. Trust permeates their cultures.\nThe data back up the impressions. For instance, these companies repeatedly lead the pack in rankings of attributes of the perfect company, such as capital allocation prowess and decentralized trust-based cultures.\nThey are also notable for the longevity of their leadership and insider ownership of the stock (especially by directors, suggesting they “get” the perfect company).\nNot coincidentally, all 10 companies rank high in attracting long-term focused (“quality”) shareholders. They also rank high in the caliber of their shareholder communications — a logical add-on of the perfect company from the shareholders’ viewpoint.\nIn short, readers have helpfully identified “perfect companies” in the sense my colleague described.  Whether these companies are perfect investments depends on their prevailing stock price.  But they certainly warrant a close look.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":93,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":804533080,"gmtCreate":1627963025340,"gmtModify":1703498706882,"author":{"id":"3576720131456704","authorId":"3576720131456704","name":"StephanieCCH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92b6ecf9837c466df852858bfcbddfdf","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576720131456704","authorIdStr":"3576720131456704"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting&nbsp;","listText":"Interesting&nbsp;","text":"Interesting","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/804533080","repostId":"2156116066","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":200,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":804530333,"gmtCreate":1627962889422,"gmtModify":1703498703941,"author":{"id":"3576720131456704","authorId":"3576720131456704","name":"StephanieCCH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92b6ecf9837c466df852858bfcbddfdf","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576720131456704","authorIdStr":"3576720131456704"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Shall monitor the trend","listText":"Shall monitor the trend","text":"Shall monitor the trend","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/804530333","repostId":"2156114224","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":236,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":805435439,"gmtCreate":1627897757921,"gmtModify":1703497425844,"author":{"id":"3576720131456704","authorId":"3576720131456704","name":"StephanieCCH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92b6ecf9837c466df852858bfcbddfdf","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576720131456704","authorIdStr":"3576720131456704"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good move","listText":"Good move","text":"Good move","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/805435439","repostId":"1185600084","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1185600084","pubTimestamp":1627897263,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1185600084?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-02 17:41","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tiger Global Invests in Indian Startup at $2.5 Billion Value","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1185600084","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Tiger Global is investing about $125 million in Infra.Market.\nAn announcement on the investment coul","content":"<ul>\n <li>Tiger Global is investing about $125 million in Infra.Market.</li>\n <li>An announcement on the investment could come as soon as Monday.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Tiger Globalhas agreed to invest an additional $125 million in Infra.Market in a deal that values the Indian technology startup at about $2.5 billion, according to a person familiar with the matter.</p>\n<p>The Mumbai-based company plans to use the fresh capital for expansion in the domestic market, said the person, who asked not to be identified as the information is private.

Here investors can avoid a lot of the noise and pitfalls that can come with simply looking at a company's income statement, such as investment-related gains that help disguise bad bottom lines or low-margin revenue growth. There's not much to hide with respect to cash -- it either increased or it didn't. And the statement of cash flow shows you how that happened.</p>\n<p>Three companies that are doing exceptionally well with regard to generating positive free cash are <b>Align Technology&nbsp;</b>(NASDAQ:ALGN),&nbsp;<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WDAY\">Workday</a>&nbsp;</b>(NASDAQ:WDAY), and&nbsp;<b>Activision Blizzard&nbsp;</b>(NASDAQ:ATVI). And with all of these businesses growing, there's likely more of the green stuff on the way.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F639290%2Fpeople-reviewing-a-chart.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>1. Align Technology</h2>\n<p>Align Technology makes a variety of dentistry products, most notably its Invisalign clear aligners, which are more convenient than braces. The company makes strong margins on the products that not only help it turn a profit but generate significant cash too. Over the past two quarters, the company reported $1.4 billion in gross profit on sales of $1.9 billion, for a gross margin of 75%. And that, in turn, helped the company net $400 million in profit.</p>\n<p>What's even more impressive is that on revenue of $3.4 billion over the past 12 months, Align has generated free cash flow of $895 million -- which is some 26% of revenue. The company has consistently produced strong cash flow, and its 2020 free cash of $507 million was more than double the $243 million it brought in just three years earlier.</p>\n<p>One of the benefits of a company that generates so much cash is it can return cash to investors. While Align doesn't pay a dividend, earlier this year its board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program worth up to $1 billion, which allows repurchases to be made over the next three years.</p>\n<p>In the past year, the stock has risen more than 120%, outperforming the&nbsp;<b>S&amp;P 500</b>'s 32% gains by a wide margin. And it's easy to see why the company is a hit with investors. In its most recent quarterly results for the period ending June 30, Align's sales nearly tripled to $1 billion, and the company projects that its top line in 2021 will rise by up to 60% from the previous year. With growth like that, this healthcare stock could continue to climb even higher.</p>\n<h2>2. Workday</h2>\n<p>Workday makes cloud-based applications that can save businesses time and money through automation. At first glance, the business may not look that great on a cash basis given that it consistently posts losses. But a significant chunk of its expenses is paid out through stock-based compensation. In the fiscal year ending Jan. 31, Workday's stock-based compensation totaled more than $1 billion. Too many share issues can be problematic for a company and can drive down the share price in the process.</p>\n<p>However, Workday's share-based compensation has been relatively stable with respect to revenue; over the past three years, it has come in at around 23% of its top line.For a company that's growing, all that dilution hasn't had a terribly negative impact for shareholders -- the stock has nearly matched the S&amp;P 500, up 29% in the past year.</p>\n<p>The model won't work for all situations, but with the business generating 19% sales growth last fiscal year and the top line up 53% in two years, Workday has been a solid growth stock. The company expects 17% growth in its subscription revenue this year, which accounts for the vast majority (88%)&nbsp;of revenue.</p>\n<p>Strong revenue growth, combined with using stock-based compensation, allowed the company to net free cash flow of $1 billion last fiscal year, which represents 23% of revenue. Although it still results in dilution, stock-based compensation can provide the business some flexibility -- and at the same time give investors a bit more predictability in earnings with potentially fewer surprising share issues along the way.</p>\n<p>As businesses continue to move more of their operations to the cloud, a company like Workday could see more demand for its products and services in the future, making it an attractive growth stock to buy. Plus, with $3 billion in cash and marketable securities on its books as of the end of April, the company has plenty of options should it want to make a big splash with an acquisition.</p>\n<h2>3. Activision</h2>\n<p>Activision is the popular gaming company behind such popular titles as <i>Call of Duty</i> and&nbsp;<i>World of Warcraft</i>. It benefits from a loyal fanbase, which translates into consistency and growth. Even though investors may be down on stay-at-home stocks with the economy opening back up, Activision has continued to do remarkably well.</p>\n<p>When it released its second-quarter results on Aug. 3, the company reported revenue of $2.3 billion for the period ending June 30, which was not only higher than the $1.9 billion it reported a year earlier, but also came in higher than its guidance, which called for revenue of $2.1 billion. Over the past 12 months the business has brought in $2.5 billion in free cash flow on revenue of $8.9 billion, which is 28% of its top line.</p>\n<p>A note of caution for prospective investors: Activision has recently come under fire for its purportedly troublesome work environment, and the allegations are serious.

Here investors can avoid a lot of the noise and pitfalls that can come with simply looking at a company's income statement, such as investment-related gains that help disguise bad bottom lines or low-margin revenue growth. There's not much to hide with respect to cash -- it either increased or it didn't. And the statement of cash flow shows you how that happened.\nThree companies that are doing exceptionally well with regard to generating positive free cash are Align Technology (NASDAQ:ALGN), Workday (NASDAQ:WDAY), and Activision Blizzard (NASDAQ:ATVI). And with all of these businesses growing, there's likely more of the green stuff on the way.\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Align Technology\nAlign Technology makes a variety of dentistry products, most notably its Invisalign clear aligners, which are more convenient than braces. The company makes strong margins on the products that not only help it turn a profit but generate significant cash too. Over the past two quarters, the company reported $1.4 billion in gross profit on sales of $1.9 billion, for a gross margin of 75%. And that, in turn, helped the company net $400 million in profit.\nWhat's even more impressive is that on revenue of $3.4 billion over the past 12 months, Align has generated free cash flow of $895 million -- which is some 26% of revenue. The company has consistently produced strong cash flow, and its 2020 free cash of $507 million was more than double the $243 million it brought in just three years earlier.\nOne of the benefits of a company that generates so much cash is it can return cash to investors. While Align doesn't pay a dividend, earlier this year its board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program worth up to $1 billion, which allows repurchases to be made over the next three years.\nIn the past year, the stock has risen more than 120%, outperforming the S&P 500's 32% gains by a wide margin. And it's easy to see why the company is a hit with investors. In its most recent quarterly results for the period ending June 30, Align's sales nearly tripled to $1 billion, and the company projects that its top line in 2021 will rise by up to 60% from the previous year. With growth like that, this healthcare stock could continue to climb even higher.\n2. Workday\nWorkday makes cloud-based applications that can save businesses time and money through automation. At first glance, the business may not look that great on a cash basis given that it consistently posts losses. But a significant chunk of its expenses is paid out through stock-based compensation. In the fiscal year ending Jan. 31, Workday's stock-based compensation totaled more than $1 billion. Too many share issues can be problematic for a company and can drive down the share price in the process.\nHowever, Workday's share-based compensation has been relatively stable with respect to revenue; over the past three years, it has come in at around 23% of its top line.For a company that's growing, all that dilution hasn't had a terribly negative impact for shareholders -- the stock has nearly matched the S&P 500, up 29% in the past year.\nThe model won't work for all situations, but with the business generating 19% sales growth last fiscal year and the top line up 53% in two years, Workday has been a solid growth stock. The company expects 17% growth in its subscription revenue this year, which accounts for the vast majority (88%) of revenue.\nStrong revenue growth, combined with using stock-based compensation, allowed the company to net free cash flow of $1 billion last fiscal year, which represents 23% of revenue. Although it still results in dilution, stock-based compensation can provide the business some flexibility -- and at the same time give investors a bit more predictability in earnings with potentially fewer surprising share issues along the way.\nAs businesses continue to move more of their operations to the cloud, a company like Workday could see more demand for its products and services in the future, making it an attractive growth stock to buy. Plus, with $3 billion in cash and marketable securities on its books as of the end of April, the company has plenty of options should it want to make a big splash with an acquisition.\n3. Activision\nActivision is the popular gaming company behind such popular titles as Call of Duty and World of Warcraft. It benefits from a loyal fanbase, which translates into consistency and growth. Even though investors may be down on stay-at-home stocks with the economy opening back up, Activision has continued to do remarkably well.\nWhen it released its second-quarter results on Aug. 3, the company reported revenue of $2.3 billion for the period ending June 30, which was not only higher than the $1.9 billion it reported a year earlier, but also came in higher than its guidance, which called for revenue of $2.1 billion. Over the past 12 months the business has brought in $2.5 billion in free cash flow on revenue of $8.9 billion, which is 28% of its top line.\nA note of caution for prospective investors: Activision has recently come under fire for its purportedly troublesome work environment, and the allegations are serious. The company said it has a law firm reviewing its procedures to help address these issues, but its president and other senior executives have departed in the wake of this situation.\nWhile the bad press has hurt the stock -- news of an employee walkout last month helped send the stock to lows not seen since last year -- it's worth remembering that investors tend to have short memories. However, the issues appear to be systemic and could have lasting implications on the company's ability to attract and retain talented employees.\nIt remains to be seen whether this controversy will impact operations over the long-term. But with a strong, cash-generating business that continues to produce solid sales growth, Activision's stock has already started to rebound, and it could be a smart long-term buy at its current price if you're comfortable betting on a cultural turnaround.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":977,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":833400982,"gmtCreate":1629252612846,"gmtModify":1676529980121,"author":{"id":"3576720131456704","authorId":"3576720131456704","name":"StephanieCCH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92b6ecf9837c466df852858bfcbddfdf","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576720131456704","authorIdStr":"3576720131456704"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Thanks for sharing&nbsp;","listText":"Thanks for sharing&nbsp;","text":"Thanks for sharing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/833400982","repostId":"2160880977","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2160880977","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":1629240675,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2160880977?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-18 06:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street slumps after weak retail sales, Home Depot results","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2160880977","media":"Reuters","summary":"* Home Depot falls as U.S. same-store sales miss estimates\n* Auto shortages, spend shift to services","content":"<p>* Home Depot falls as U.S. same-store sales miss estimates</p>\n<p>* Auto shortages, spend shift to services tank U.S. retail sales</p>\n<p>* Walmart flat after it raises sales forecast</p>\n<p>* Indexes down: Dow 0.79%, S&amp;P 0.71%, Nasdaq 0.93%</p>\n<p>Aug 17 (Reuters) - Wall Street's main indexes slid on Tuesday, with the S&amp;P 500 logging its biggest one-day percentage fall in about a month, weighed down by a drop in U.S. retail sales that raised concerns about the economic recovery, as well as by disappointing results from Home Depot.</p>\n<p>Most of the S&amp;P 500's sectors finished lower, with consumer discretionary the weakest performer, falling 2.3%.</p>\n<p>Home Depot shares fell 4.3% after the company's U.S. same-store sales fell short of estimates for the first time in nearly two years as pandemic-fueled do-it-yourself projects tapered off.

On Monday, the S&P 500 closed 100% above its March 2020 low.\nStill, market watchers have said that huge amounts of cash held by investors and companies could protect stocks from severe declines, as buyers are quick to look for opportunities to scoop up cheaper shares. Indeed, the indexes ended well above their session lows on Tuesday as stocks partially recovered late in the day.\nIn an encouraging sign about the economic rebound, a Federal Reserve report showed production at U.S. factories surged in July.\nInvestors are looking for signs about when the Fed will rein in its easy money policies, with minutes from the central bank's latest meeting due on Wednesday, and are watching the resurgence in COVID-19 cases and its impact on the economy.\nIn other company news, Walmart Inc shares ended little changed after the retailer increased its annual U.S. same-store sales forecast after beating analysts' estimates.\nDeclining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 2.92-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 2.51-to-1 ratio favored decliners.\nThe S&P 500 posted 39 new 52-week highs and 3 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 44 new highs and 318 new lows.\nAbout 9.5 billion shares changed hands in U.S. exchanges, above the 9.2 billion daily average over the last 20 sessions.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":416,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":805435439,"gmtCreate":1627897757921,"gmtModify":1703497425844,"author":{"id":"3576720131456704","authorId":"3576720131456704","name":"StephanieCCH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92b6ecf9837c466df852858bfcbddfdf","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576720131456704","authorIdStr":"3576720131456704"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good move","listText":"Good move","text":"Good move","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/805435439","repostId":"1185600084","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1185600084","pubTimestamp":1627897263,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1185600084?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-02 17:41","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tiger Global Invests in Indian Startup at $2.5 Billion Value","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1185600084","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Tiger Global is investing about $125 million in Infra.Market.\nAn announcement on the investment coul","content":"<ul>\n <li>Tiger Global is investing about $125 million in Infra.Market.</li>\n <li>An announcement on the investment could come as soon as Monday.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Tiger Globalhas agreed to invest an additional $125 million in Infra.Market in a deal that values the Indian technology startup at about $2.5 billion, according to a person familiar with the matter.</p>\n<p>The Mumbai-based company plans to use the fresh capital for expansion in the domestic market, said the person, who asked not to be identified as the information is private.

These companies operate in industries aiming to do just that.</p>\n<p>If you would like your investments to help protect the Earth, you might as well go in for the long term and try to make a lot of money as companies specializing in low-emissions and sustainable energy technologies grow.</p>\n<p>Below is a screen of alternative-energy companies expected to produce the fastest revenue growth over the next three years.</p>\n<p>The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released its new report on climate change Aug. 9 and said that the past decade had been the warmest over the past 125,000 years. Here arefive quick takeaways from the U.N. IPCC’s report. You can read the IPICC’s summaries and download the entire reporthere.</p>\n<p>Climate change is a controversial subject, but regardless of your opinion about governments’ responsibility, as an investor you need to move toward lower emissions, more sustainable power sources, smart electric grids, among other things. Changing your portfolio with the times gives you an opportunity to profit as innovative companies grow quickly.</p>\n<p>A diversified investment in one or more exchange traded funds focused on clean energy is one way to do this — it also sets the basis for the stock screen that follows.</p>\n<p>Here are the largest five alternative energy ETFs listed byETF Database.</p>\n<p>To begin the screen, we looked at the five largest cloud ETFs:<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9285f19898486b364b43ce7ff3a5838d\" tg-width=\"796\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">These ETFs have varying strategies, and definitions of alternative or clean energy companies may be broad. For example, electric-vehicle maker Tesla Inc.TSLAalso makes solar-power-generation equipment and is held by QCLN, ACES and GRID. Rival EV makers Nio Inc.NIOand Xpeng Inc.XPEVare held by QCLN.</p>\n<p>If you are interested in any ETF, you should review the fund manager’s website.</p>\n<p>ETF Database says solar energy is the most common industry among companies held by ETFs in the alternative energy category, but that “wind, hydroelectric and geothermal energies are also represented.”</p>\n<p>Here’s a comparison of total returns for the five ETFs through Aug. 6:<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3afa3b109ecb8ba327ef4f8055bc64df\" tg-width=\"787\" tg-height=\"399\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Performance among these alternative energy ETFs is mixed, but for the three- and five-year periods, all handily beat the returns of the S&amp;P 500 IndexSPX.</p>\n<p>Clean-energy stock screen</p>\n<p>The five ETFs listed above hold a total of 204 stocks. To project the growth of revenue through 2023, we used calendar 2020 estimates among analysts polled by FactSet as a baseline and then looked at consensus estimates for the subsequent three years, if available.

These companies operate in industries aiming to do just that.\nIf you would like your investments to help protect the Earth, you might as well go in for the long term and try to make a lot of money as companies specializing in low-emissions and sustainable energy technologies grow.\nBelow is a screen of alternative-energy companies expected to produce the fastest revenue growth over the next three years.\nThe United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released its new report on climate change Aug. 9 and said that the past decade had been the warmest over the past 125,000 years. Here arefive quick takeaways from the U.N. IPCC’s report. You can read the IPICC’s summaries and download the entire reporthere.\nClimate change is a controversial subject, but regardless of your opinion about governments’ responsibility, as an investor you need to move toward lower emissions, more sustainable power sources, smart electric grids, among other things. Changing your portfolio with the times gives you an opportunity to profit as innovative companies grow quickly.\nA diversified investment in one or more exchange traded funds focused on clean energy is one way to do this — it also sets the basis for the stock screen that follows.\nHere are the largest five alternative energy ETFs listed byETF Database.\nTo begin the screen, we looked at the five largest cloud ETFs:These ETFs have varying strategies, and definitions of alternative or clean energy companies may be broad. For example, electric-vehicle maker Tesla Inc.TSLAalso makes solar-power-generation equipment and is held by QCLN, ACES and GRID. Rival EV makers Nio Inc.NIOand Xpeng Inc.XPEVare held by QCLN.\nIf you are interested in any ETF, you should review the fund manager’s website.\nETF Database says solar energy is the most common industry among companies held by ETFs in the alternative energy category, but that “wind, hydroelectric and geothermal energies are also represented.”\nHere’s a comparison of total returns for the five ETFs through Aug. 6:\nPerformance among these alternative energy ETFs is mixed, but for the three- and five-year periods, all handily beat the returns of the S&P 500 IndexSPX.\nClean-energy stock screen\nThe five ETFs listed above hold a total of 204 stocks. To project the growth of revenue through 2023, we used calendar 2020 estimates among analysts polled by FactSet as a baseline and then looked at consensus estimates for the subsequent three years, if available. (The 2020 numbers are estimates, because many companies’ fiscal years don’t match the calendar.)\nWe emphasized revenue because many of these companies are at early stages and are focused on developing products and services and growing their businesses, rather than showing net income.\nTo ensure a quality set of estimates, we limited the group of companies to those covered by at least five analysts polled by FactSet. For a slight cut to risk, we also eliminated any company with less than $10 million in estimated revenue during calendar 2020.

The vaccine maker's shares have soared more than 360% so far this year. And that comes on top of the 434% gain in 2020.</p>\n<p>That kind of performance tends to attract investors' attention -- and deservedly so. Some might view the vaccine stock as overpriced now that its market cap tops $190 billion. But not everyone.</p>\n<p>There's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> investor preparing to make a $1 billion bet on Moderna. Who is it? None other than Moderna itself.</p>\n<h2>Investing heavily</h2>\n<p>Moderna stated in its second-quarter update that its board of directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $1 billion. Don't expect the company to spend all that money at one time, though. The authorized funds can be used over a two-year period to buy back shares.</p>\n<p>Actually, Moderna has invested and will invest a lot more than just $1 billion in its business. CFO David Meline noted in the company's Q2 conference call that Moderna more than tripled its research and development spending year over year in the first half of 2021. He said to expect significantly increased R&amp;D investments going forward.</p>\n<p>In addition, Moderna plans to make between $450 million and $550 million this year in capital investments. These investments include a major expansion of capacity to be able to manufacture up to 3 billion doses of its COVID-19 vaccine in 2022. The company is also investing in technology improvements and beefing up its global commercial operations.</p>\n<h2>Why buy back shares?</h2>\n<p>Probably the most important reason why Moderna is preparing to invest so much in itself is that the company's management team is very confident in its business prospects. CEO Stéphane Bancel said in the Q2 call, \"We are very optimistic about the future of Moderna and we are just getting started.\"</p>\n<p>Another reason why Moderna is ready to spend up to $1 billion in stock buybacks is that it's likely going to have more cash than it knows what to do with. The company ended the second quarter with a cash stockpile of $12.2 billion. That amount will almost certainly continue to grow.</p>\n<p>Moderna expects to rake in $20 billion in sales from its COVID-19 vaccine this year. It already has advance purchase agreements worth $12 billion plus another $8 billion in options for next year.</p>\n<p>Repurchasing shares is actually Moderna's third investment priority. The company first wants to reinvest in its base business, which includes the aforementioned increased R&amp;D and capital spending.

The vaccine maker's shares have soared more than 360% so far this year. And that comes on top of the 434% gain in 2020.\nThat kind of performance tends to attract investors' attention -- and deservedly so. Some might view the vaccine stock as overpriced now that its market cap tops $190 billion. But not everyone.\nThere's one investor preparing to make a $1 billion bet on Moderna. Who is it? None other than Moderna itself.\nInvesting heavily\nModerna stated in its second-quarter update that its board of directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $1 billion. Don't expect the company to spend all that money at one time, though. The authorized funds can be used over a two-year period to buy back shares.\nActually, Moderna has invested and will invest a lot more than just $1 billion in its business. CFO David Meline noted in the company's Q2 conference call that Moderna more than tripled its research and development spending year over year in the first half of 2021. He said to expect significantly increased R&D investments going forward.\nIn addition, Moderna plans to make between $450 million and $550 million this year in capital investments. These investments include a major expansion of capacity to be able to manufacture up to 3 billion doses of its COVID-19 vaccine in 2022. The company is also investing in technology improvements and beefing up its global commercial operations.\nWhy buy back shares?\nProbably the most important reason why Moderna is preparing to invest so much in itself is that the company's management team is very confident in its business prospects. CEO Stéphane Bancel said in the Q2 call, \"We are very optimistic about the future of Moderna and we are just getting started.\"\nAnother reason why Moderna is ready to spend up to $1 billion in stock buybacks is that it's likely going to have more cash than it knows what to do with. The company ended the second quarter with a cash stockpile of $12.2 billion. That amount will almost certainly continue to grow.\nModerna expects to rake in $20 billion in sales from its COVID-19 vaccine this year. It already has advance purchase agreements worth $12 billion plus another $8 billion in options for next year.\nRepurchasing shares is actually Moderna's third investment priority. The company first wants to reinvest in its base business, which includes the aforementioned increased R&D and capital spending. Moderna also is interested in expanding its pipeline through business development, deals including licensing and acquisitions.\nModerna's board seems to think that the company will still have plenty of money left over after investing in those two top priorities. Based on the company's revenue projections, it should easily be able to spare $1 billion for stock buybacks.\nA good bet?\nJust because Moderna can spend $1 billion on share repurchases doesn't mean that it should do so. I don't think Moderna should make that $1 billion bet in buying back shares. My view is that stock buybacks at Moderna's current valuation (or anywhere close to it) would be ill-advised.\nOf course, Moderna could wait to buy back shares only on pullbacks. However, unless its shares plunge significantly, I think that Moderna would better serve its shareholders by making a strategic acquisition with the $1 billion than buying its own richly priced shares.\nThe company needs to be able to generate growth after the worst of the pandemic ends. With only one non-COVID-19 pipeline candidate soon to enter late-stage testing, buying a smaller biotech is the easiest way to achieve that growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":286,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171542781,"gmtCreate":1626752899243,"gmtModify":1703764535125,"author":{"id":"3576720131456704","authorId":"3576720131456704","name":"StephanieCCH","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/92b6ecf9837c466df852858bfcbddfdf","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576720131456704","authorIdStr":"3576720131456704"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting&nbsp;","listText":"Interesting&nbsp;","text":"Interesting","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/171542781","repostId":"1158140412","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158140412","pubTimestamp":1626706707,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1158140412?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-19 22:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nvidia Stock’s Surge Makes Chip Maker 10th-Biggest U.S. Listed Company","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158140412","media":"The Wall Street Journal","summary":"Company’s shares are up nearly 80% over the past year.\n\nThe post-pandemic boom in the semiconductor ","content":"<blockquote>\n Company’s shares are up nearly 80% over the past year.\n</blockquote>\n<p>The post-pandemic boom in the semiconductor business has powered&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NVDA\">NVIDIA Corp</a> into the top 10 U.S. public companies, joining the likes of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> Inc. and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JPM\">JPMorgan Chase</a> &amp; Co.</p>\n<p>Shares of the Santa Clara, Calif., firm have risen nearly 80% over the past year, giving it a market value of around $453 billion.

First it was March, then May, then June, then September, for when experts would say the crash would come. Has it? No. Will it? Possibly. Is it easy to predict? Hardly. The more you hear people talk about it, the more you see it, the more convincing a possible crash gets - yet it's still nothing to fear. There are unfavorable and unsightly factors in the markets - again, it's still nothing to fear; rather, it's something to keep in mind, prepare for, and ultimately, take advantage of and capitalize. Just like in sports such as basketball and soccer, a great player plays both offense and defense very well, and likewise a great investor can play both the bull and bear runs in the market, and capitalize off of either. A crash should be nothing to fear, when the cards are stacked right and the hedges are placed, as it can offer chances to buy high-quality companies often at large discounts.</p>\n<p>An Abundance of 'Warnings'</p>\n<p>Simply doing a quick search on Google (GOOG) for \"stock market crash\" or \"stock market crash expert\" returns dozens upon dozens of results of arguments laying out the pending doom of the markets, the arguments behind why the crash is bound to happen, why the crash didn't happen when it was supposed to,etc.; while there are many different 'expert warnings' for such a crash, let's take a look at three different perspectives, from Harry Dent, Jeremy Grantham, and John Hussman.</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Harry Denthas warned of an 80% crash coming this fall (a bit on the extreme side it seems, compared to others), saying that \"stocks have no place in investors' portfolios.\" His track record includes calling Japan's 1989 bubble and the dot-com bubble, and Dent is seeing that while investors remain bullish in the longer-term, the economy's recovery isn't the same and \"not as good as it used to be.\" Back in March, he had said that the biggest crash would happen in June, but as we all can see, it did not.</li>\n <li>Jeremy Granthamsees that the 2020 Covid-induced crash was a mere blip in the run to the market peak, with the past year shoring up to be the \"classic finale to an 11-year bull market.\" Overvaluation across each market decile, farther than in 2000, while margin and debt peak, and high speculative trading support his warning. He also sees deflating asset prices, such as housing, causing pain as well, as bonds, stocks and real estate have all inflated together.</li>\n <li>John Hussmanhas warned that valuations are extreme, and called for the S&amp;P 500 to see 12 years of negative returns ahead and a &gt;60% decline; Hussman's track record includes calling out the dot-com bubble burst and 80% decline, the 2008 crash, and the decade of negative returns following the dot-com bubble. He also warns about speculation on securities that have already seen large appreciation for future growth. One of the key factors that he points out for a likely snapping of this bull run is that \"the mental image in anticipation of a post-pandemic recovery may be more pleasant than the actual recovery itself,\" such that the \"glowing optimism currently built into record valuation extremes could be followed by quite a bit of disappointment.\"</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Yet they aren't alone, and while track records do show some big crashes, often times they can be wrong far more than they are right, banks are also seeing minimal returns over the decade - Bank of America (BAC) is predicting that the S&amp;P 500 would return an average of just 2% through the decade given the valuation landscape. That, plus other factors, do bring up the possibility of a crash, but with the signs and signals flashing, it shouldn't catch anyone off guard.</p>\n<p>Four Factors</p>\n<p>While there are many factors that have caused prior crashes and could cause future ones, four main factors that this current market exhibits that have the potential to cause a crash include: high amounts of speculative trading, slowdown in growth (economic recovery), peak valuations, and low interest rates that rise.</p>\n<p>Excessive Speculation</p>\n<p>Speculation comes in many forms, but the most recognizable instances of over-exuberant trading and excessive speculation include GameStop's (GME) January short-squeeze frenzy, Archegos' implosion and the crash of Viacom (VIAC), Discovery (DISCA), a basket of Chinese tech stocks including Baidu (BIDU), iQIYI (IQ) and Vipshop(NYSE:VIPS), and others, and the more recent AMC Entertainment (AMC) short squeeze. Dogecoin (DOGE-USD) also erupted in a speculative half social-media, half Elon Musk-fueled run.</p>\n<p>While single asset speculation through heavy volume trading not just in shares but in call options has been visible, less visible aspects of excessive speculative have persisted for months, with some surfacing in February or earlier.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dccc290398aed22a11cf41ae63a85bce\" tg-width=\"624\" tg-height=\"453\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Margin debt (above) has risen significantly since 2020's bottoming out, up over 70% to over $850 billion from just $500 billion in early 2020.

Derivatives on index ETFs like&nbsp;SPY&nbsp;and&nbsp;DIA&nbsp;could offset potential selloffs in the market, while theQQQcan protect against losses in high-flying tech. For example, a quick case study for an SPY put play for Sept. 17: you assume an expectation for a 10% decline in the SPY to ~$390, and hedging your portfolio could come through a long put for ~$300, a $410/$390/$370 long butterfly for ~$100, or a $410/$390 put debit spread for ~$200. While the first trade has the highest return potential, it brings the highest risk, as the latter two strategies can start to profit on moves closer to -7%. For a $50,000 portfolio, a ~1% hedge could allow the purchase of 3 debit spreads, providing a maximum return of ~$6,000, or 12% of the portfolio value, which could effectively mitigate losses should the SPY fall to or below $390.<i>Note that options strategies are inherently risky, and each investor's risk appetite is different, and such a strategy may not be suitable for everyone. This is merely a case study and shows the potential that a small percentage hedge can have in mitigating downside risk. Be aware of risks to timing and theta decay, and options becoming worthless.</i></p>\n<p>Again, it's difficult to identify and even more difficult to time a bubble, given that the market can remain 'wrong' much longer than you can wait to be right. There's still room to run further with Fed support, but such signs of a potential bubble - excessive speculation, growth slowdown, peak valuations, and low interest rates rising - require awareness and preparedness. Yet it's nothing to fear. Small hedges can minimize downside risk, especially through options if timed well. Understanding the risks to high-flying growth stocks and those trading at or near peak valuations, regardless of sector, is important - many of the IPOs and SPACs have seen high valuations and minimal revenues, leading to exorbitant PS multiples pricing in years of growth, much like 2000. At the end of the day, if or when a crash happens, the opportunities to buy the 'best-of-the-best' companies at very attractive levels, and can provide generous returns.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Don't Fear A Stock Market Crash</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\">\nDon't Fear A Stock Market Crash\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-17 09:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4439512-dont-fear-a-stock-market-crash><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nWarnings and claims of a stock market crash keep surfacing as the markets continue to push themselves to new records.\nThere are four main factors that this market exhibits that have the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4439512-dont-fear-a-stock-market-crash\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{".SPX":"S&P 500 Index",".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".DJI":"道琼斯"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4439512-dont-fear-a-stock-market-crash","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1149577900","content_text":"Summary\n\nWarnings and claims of a stock market crash keep surfacing as the markets continue to push themselves to new records.\nThere are four main factors that this market exhibits that have the potential to cause a crash.\nThose factors include excessive speculation, a growth slowdown, peak valuations, and low interest rates rising.\nPreparedness for the possible outcomes stemming from these factors and securing a portfolio against those outcomes could be necessary.\nA crash isn't something to fear, but rather something to take advantage of and capitalize from the bargains being offered.\n\nWarnings and claims of a stock market crash keep surfacing as the markets continue to push themselves to new records. First it was March, then May, then June, then September, for when experts would say the crash would come. Has it? No. Will it? Possibly. Is it easy to predict? Hardly. The more you hear people talk about it, the more you see it, the more convincing a possible crash gets - yet it's still nothing to fear. There are unfavorable and unsightly factors in the markets - again, it's still nothing to fear; rather, it's something to keep in mind, prepare for, and ultimately, take advantage of and capitalize. Just like in sports such as basketball and soccer, a great player plays both offense and defense very well, and likewise a great investor can play both the bull and bear runs in the market, and capitalize off of either. A crash should be nothing to fear, when the cards are stacked right and the hedges are placed, as it can offer chances to buy high-quality companies often at large discounts.\nAn Abundance of 'Warnings'\nSimply doing a quick search on Google (GOOG) for \"stock market crash\" or \"stock market crash expert\" returns dozens upon dozens of results of arguments laying out the pending doom of the markets, the arguments behind why the crash is bound to happen, why the crash didn't happen when it was supposed to,etc.; while there are many different 'expert warnings' for such a crash, let's take a look at three different perspectives, from Harry Dent, Jeremy Grantham, and John Hussman.\n\nHarry Denthas warned of an 80% crash coming this fall (a bit on the extreme side it seems, compared to others), saying that \"stocks have no place in investors' portfolios.\" His track record includes calling Japan's 1989 bubble and the dot-com bubble, and Dent is seeing that while investors remain bullish in the longer-term, the economy's recovery isn't the same and \"not as good as it used to be.\" Back in March, he had said that the biggest crash would happen in June, but as we all can see, it did not.\nJeremy Granthamsees that the 2020 Covid-induced crash was a mere blip in the run to the market peak, with the past year shoring up to be the \"classic finale to an 11-year bull market.\" Overvaluation across each market decile, farther than in 2000, while margin and debt peak, and high speculative trading support his warning. He also sees deflating asset prices, such as housing, causing pain as well, as bonds, stocks and real estate have all inflated together.\nJohn Hussmanhas warned that valuations are extreme, and called for the S&P 500 to see 12 years of negative returns ahead and a >60% decline; Hussman's track record includes calling out the dot-com bubble burst and 80% decline, the 2008 crash, and the decade of negative returns following the dot-com bubble. He also warns about speculation on securities that have already seen large appreciation for future growth. One of the key factors that he points out for a likely snapping of this bull run is that \"the mental image in anticipation of a post-pandemic recovery may be more pleasant than the actual recovery itself,\" such that the \"glowing optimism currently built into record valuation extremes could be followed by quite a bit of disappointment.\"\n\nYet they aren't alone, and while track records do show some big crashes, often times they can be wrong far more than they are right, banks are also seeing minimal returns over the decade - Bank of America (BAC) is predicting that the S&P 500 would return an average of just 2% through the decade given the valuation landscape. That, plus other factors, do bring up the possibility of a crash, but with the signs and signals flashing, it shouldn't catch anyone off guard.\nFour Factors\nWhile there are many factors that have caused prior crashes and could cause future ones, four main factors that this current market exhibits that have the potential to cause a crash include: high amounts of speculative trading, slowdown in growth (economic recovery), peak valuations, and low interest rates that rise.\nExcessive Speculation\nSpeculation comes in many forms, but the most recognizable instances of over-exuberant trading and excessive speculation include GameStop's (GME) January short-squeeze frenzy, Archegos' implosion and the crash of Viacom (VIAC), Discovery (DISCA), a basket of Chinese tech stocks including Baidu (BIDU), iQIYI (IQ) and Vipshop(NYSE:VIPS), and others, and the more recent AMC Entertainment (AMC) short squeeze. Dogecoin (DOGE-USD) also erupted in a speculative half social-media, half Elon Musk-fueled run.\nWhile single asset speculation through heavy volume trading not just in shares but in call options has been visible, less visible aspects of excessive speculative have persisted for months, with some surfacing in February or earlier.\n\nMargin debt (above) has risen significantly since 2020's bottoming out, up over 70% to over $850 billion from just $500 billion in early 2020. Robinhood (HOOD), a facilitator of first-time investors entering the market, of which they did in herds during 2020, provided relatively easy access to margin trading, and a flood of new investors and a surge in 'FOMO' helped push both margin debt and the market higher through 2020. While spikes in margin debt have historically preceded both the dot-com and housing bubble bursts (a pre-recessionary indicator), margin debt has spiked during the recent recession, which could signal that more pain is yet to come.\nBack in early February, signs of excess speculation and a push in the ten-year past 1.25%, to me, signaled pain ahead for growth stocks - thatthesisplayed out starting that day, with the NASDAQ falling over 10% through early March. Now, yields are stumbling, with the ten-year dropping below 1.30%, as expectations for a growth slowdown amid a slew of factors including new lockdowns in Australia, rising cases from the Delta variant and higher-than-expected inflation.\nSpeculation combines with other factors, like a growth slowdown and peak valuations, to create frothiness in trading, stretched multiples, and asymmetric risk-reward profiles, creating more risk than reward often.\nGrowth Slowdown\nGraphic fromWeForumvia Statista\nThe economic recovery as the globe worked through and emerged from lockdowns last year is visible, with a nearV-recoveryin GDP through the back half of 2020. China has seen aslowdownin its recovery, with more policy support expected; U.S. job numbers have missed expectations multiple times so far this year. There are still pockets of the economy that have failed to recovery as fast as expected, such as family-owned businesses/restaurants.\nUnemployment, GDP, and inflation all factor into forecasts for economic growth, and inflation is posing a larger risk than the other two currently. High inflation, high[er] unemployment, and an economic growth slowdown can create stagflation, such as what was witnessed in the 1970s.Fears of stagflationhave risen through June; while wage stagnation has been fought off by companies raising wages to meet downfalls caused by labor shortages, inflation is driving prices higher - theCPIrose quicker than expectations, reaching its highest level since August 2008, while thePPImirrored that move, helped by supply chain issues across nearly all industries. Companies like PepsiCo (PEP) and Conagra (CAG) are raising prices to combat adverse effects to their operating performances stemming from inflation.\nThe market hasn't necessarily reacted to the possibilities of an economic slowdown, and inflation isn't the only factor - Covid-19 is not close to being gone, with the Delta variant surging in non-vaccinated communities and countries.Lockdownshave been re-implemented in parts of Australia, and there's no telling if lockdowns will be needed in other regions if cases continue to spike, and that alone can revert economic growth.\nPeak Valuations\nArguably one of the most noticeable and most mentioned factor in this list is peak valuations - that is, stocks are in a bubble, or certain groups of stocks are substantially overvalued.\nGraphic fromBloomberg\nFebruary and March marked a time where the markets 'reset' valuations for growth stocks - in particular, SPACs and unprofitable high-growth stocks who soared during 2020 (Goldman Sachs'Non-Profitable Tech Indexreached 393.1 in January 2021, up from 81.7 in March 2020). The SPAC cohort is a mix of heavy speculation and peak valuations, with SPACs rising >100% on rumors of mergers, only to fall >50% following those mergers - Churchill Capital IV (CCIV) and Lucid Motors is the prime example of this. This was a trend of the EV sector in general from January through March, with leaders Tesla (TSLA) and NIO (NIO) shedding over one-third of their value.\nSPACs also mirror some of the exuberance in 2000 - stocks that had that dot-com in the name were able to raise substantial cash via IPOs without much of a proven operating record, and many failed. Many of the SPACs that have come public in the past year exhibit those same features - a high investor appetite, ability to raise necessary cash from such appetite, multi-billion dollar valuations, and minimal revenues. General IPOs are also red-hot, with hundreds of companies already joining the markets this year, as investor snap them up quickly.\nData byYCharts\nTech stocks that have performed poorly since that 'peak' from January through March include some of those recent IPOs like C3.ai (AI), Lemonade (LMND), Snowflake (SNOW), and others including Appian (APPN) and Fastly (FSLY); aside from Snowflake, which is down 20%, the rest have fallen over 40% from those highs as high P/S multiples reset. On the other hand, CrowdStrike (CRWD) and Zscaler (ZS) have managed to maintain such a high multiple with growing cybersecurity tailwinds, and have performed about flat over the same period. While the former six do still have strong, positive growth prospects, sustaining a high multiple is never guaranteed, and a reset that shocks the market shocks these stocks significantly, as seen in their performance.\nBut these peak valuations also spread to the blue-chips, and to FAANGM - Facebook (FB), Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), Netflix (NFLX), Google (GOOGL), and Microsoft (MSFT). This basket's PE valuations, on a weighted-by-market-cap basis, sat at 45x earnings in February, pushed higher by Amazon and Apple; at the moment, it sits just above 41.5x. This plays a role in exaggerating the overall S&P PE due to the heavy weighting the group has in the index, which is over 2 standard deviations above its average.\nGraphic fromCurrent Market Valuation\nAnd as a whole, valuations across the market are becoming more stretched, with each decile seeing its most extreme valuations on a PS basis, topping that of 2000. While high-beta, high-multiple stocks (primarily tech) in decline 10 have exceeded their 2000s level in a steep climb, decile 8 and 9 (likely more stable stocks given historical PS of 2x-4x) have seen that ratio double since 2011, with a surge in 2020 taking the deciles far past averages.

Some experts are seeing that equities in general are exhibiting signs of peak valuations and irrational exuberance, but that can be sustained as long as 'stimulus' in the form of Fed support remains.\nWhen interest rates are kept lower for an extended period, it increases the chances of bubbles being formed in different asset classes.

Be aware of risks to timing and theta decay, and options becoming worthless.\nAgain, it's difficult to identify and even more difficult to time a bubble, given that the market can remain 'wrong' much longer than you can wait to be right. There's still room to run further with Fed support, but such signs of a potential bubble - excessive speculation, growth slowdown, peak valuations, and low interest rates rising - require awareness and preparedness. Yet it's nothing to fear. Small hedges can minimize downside risk, especially through options if timed well. Understanding the risks to high-flying growth stocks and those trading at or near peak valuations, regardless of sector, is important - many of the IPOs and SPACs have seen high valuations and minimal revenues, leading to exorbitant PS multiples pricing in years of growth, much like 2000. At the end of the day, if or when a crash happens, the opportunities to buy the 'best-of-the-best' companies at very attractive levels, and can provide generous returns.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":66,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
