The fed funds rate was at 6 basis points on Friday.\nSTANDING REPO FACILITY\nThe Fed surprised some market participants when minutes from its April meeting, released in May, showed policymakers participated in a briefing on the pros and cons of making permanent the support they provide to money markets.\nInvestors will be looking for any details the Fed may give on a standing repo facility, which would reduce the chance of the Treasury market experiencing the sort of liquidity shortages that hit markets in September 2019 and March 2020 by giving investors confidence that there is a lender of last resort in the event of another large disruption.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":126,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187188440,"gmtCreate":1623746762880,"gmtModify":1704210231037,"author":{"id":"3577253367844943","authorId":"3577253367844943","name":"MoneyMenon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a70761ae1345ccdbf44282a236a2414e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577253367844943","authorIdStr":"3577253367844943"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187188440","repostId":"1177646539","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":343,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":100423496,"gmtCreate":1619635933315,"gmtModify":1704727147821,"author":{"id":"3577253367844943","authorId":"3577253367844943","name":"MoneyMenon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a70761ae1345ccdbf44282a236a2414e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577253367844943","authorIdStr":"3577253367844943"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I want to be him one day","listText":"I want to be him one day","text":"I want to be him one day","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/100423496","repostId":"1104198438","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1104198438","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619623222,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1104198438?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-28 23:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1104198438","media":"Yahoo","summary":"Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to","content":"<p>Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>\n<p>The famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ballooned to a value of $281.17 billion by the end of 2020, or more than double the cumulative cost of building these stakes at $108.62 billion, according toBerkshire's latest annual shareholder letter.The value of the portfolio's total equity investments carried at market was up 13.4% compared to year-end 2019.

And the firm's cumulative returns over that period have been a whopping 2,810,526% to the S&P 500's 23,454%.</p>\n<p>On May 1, Buffett and long-time business partner Charlie Munger will hold Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting in Los Angeles. This may serve as a forum for the pair to discuss additional investments purchased and sold in the first months of 2021, ahead of formal 13-F filing reveals later in the month. Last year, Buffett disclosed at the annual meeting thatBerkshire had sold out of its entire interest in the airline stocksAmerican Airlines (AAL), United Airlines (UAL), Delta Air Lines (DAL) and Southwest Airlines (LUV)in the first quarter of 2020.</p>\n<p>Here's how Berkshire's top 10 stock investments by market value fared over the course of the pandemic, based on the stakes disclosed in the Buffett's latest annual shareholder letter.*</p>\n<p><b>Apple</b></p>\n<p>Buffett pointed to Apple (AAPL) as one of the most valuable assets for Berkshire Hathaway alongside the firm's insurance operation and BNSF Railway, thanks in large part to the iPhone-maker's hefty share repurchases.</p>\n<p>Berkshire owned 907,559,761 shares of Apple as of the end of December for a total market value of $120.4 billion. By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.</p>\n<p>That massive holding — comprising 44% of Berkshire's disclosed assets, according to Bloomberg data — came even after the firm pocketed $11 billion after selling a small portion of its position in 2020.</p>\n<p>\"Despite that sale – voila! – Berkshire now owns 5.4% of Apple,\" Buffett said in the shareholder letter. \"That increase was costless to us,<b>coming about because Apple</b>has continuously repurchased its shares, thereby substantially shrinking the number it now has outstanding.\"</p>\n<p>Though Buffett hashistorically steered away from investing in technology companiesin favor of businesses he has understood more deeply, Berkshire's major holding in Apple proved auspicious during the pandemic, when Big Tech companies led the market higher.</p>\n<p>Apple's stock posted a total return of 82% in 2020, outperforming every other \"FAANG\" stock including Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Alphabet. The run-up has since cooled in early 2021, however, with the stock posting a total return of just 1.4% for the year-to-date through market close on April 27.</p>\n<p><b>Bank of America</b></p>\n<p>While Berkshire Hathaway unloaded many of its bank stock holdings over the course of 2020, it increased its stake in Bank of America (BAC).</p>\n<p>The firm held 1,032,952,006 shares of Bank of America as of the end of 2020, after adding 85.1 million shares in the third quarter alone. This gave Berkshire Hathaway an ownership stake of 11.9%.</p>\n<p>By the end of last year, the value of that holding was worth $31.3 million, and cost $14.6 million to amass.</p>\n<p>The increase in the size of Berkshire Hathaway's Bank of America holding bucked the trend of the other bank stocks in the portfolio last year. Berkshire cut its holdings of Wells Fargo (EFC) from 345.7 million shares at year-end 2019 to 52.4 million by year-end 2020, and completely exited its holdings in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and M&T Bank Corp (MTB).</p>\n<p>With interest rates sliding amid ultra-accommodative monetary policy during the pandemic, bank stocks were among the worst performers last year. Bank of America shares fell nearly 14% in 2020, underperforming against both the S&P 500 and S&P 500 financials sector, which dropped just 4.1%. However, with interest rates back on the rise and consumer spending accelerating, shares have already started to reverse these declines, and Bank of America shares have risen 32% so far in 2021.</p>\n<p><b>The Coca-Cola Company</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway's stake in Coca-Cola (KO) remained unchanged between 2019 and 2020 at 400 million shares, offering 9.3% ownership in the beverage giant. Buffett has been a long-time investor in the firm, having first purchased shares in Berkshire's portfolio in 1988. It has comprised a significant portion of the firm's total holdings and mark value value ever since.</p>\n<p>This long-term investment has paid off for the company, with the market value of the shares held totaling $21.9 billion at the end of 2020. Berkshire spent just under $1.3 billion building its stake in Coca-Cola.</p>\n<p>While Berkshire's overall return on its investment in Coca-Cola has been formidable, the stock did underperform the broader market in 2020. Coca-Cola shares declined 0.9% during the year as a dearth of live events and concessions weighed on sales, though the stock did still eke out a total return of 2.44% during the year with reinvested dividends. Shares have extended a run of underperformance in 2021, with the stock falling 1.5% so far this year.</p>\n<p><b>American Express</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway held 151,610,700 shares of American Express (AXP) as of the end of 2020, with the stock comprising another of the firm's long-standing investments. Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.</p>\n<p>As a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.</p>\n<p>While Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"</p>\n<p>More recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.</p>\n<p><b>Verizon Communications</b></p>\n<p>Verizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.</p>\n<p>The holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.</p>\n<p>But even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Moody's Corporation</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.</p>\n<p>The credit rating agency outperformed the S&P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>U.S. Bancorp</b></p>\n<p>U.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.</p>\n<p>As was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>BYD</b></p>\n<p>Shenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).</p>\n<p>Berkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.</p>\n<p><b>Chevron</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.</p>\n<p>By year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Charter Communications</b></p>\n<p>Charter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020. In August of last year, Berkshire reported it had cut its stake by 4% to a total of about 5.2 million shares.</p>\n<p>The sale still left Berkshire with a 2.7% stake in the company, and holdings worth $3.45 billion by year-end 2020, at a total cost of just $904 million. Berkshire had beenaccumulating its stake in Charter since 2014.</p>\n<p>Shares of Charter Communications rose 36% in 2020, but have given back some of these gains after dipping 1.2% so far in 2021.</p>\n<p><i>* This analysis excludes Berkshire Hathaway's Kraft Heinz holding of 325,442,152 shares, since this is held using a different accounting method. Berkshire reported that the market value of these shares was $11.3 billion as of December 31, 2020.</i></p>","source":"lsy1584348713084","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Here’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nHere’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-28 23:20 GMT+8 <a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html><strong>Yahoo</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.\nThe famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"MCO":"穆迪","AXP":"美国运通","002594":"比亚迪","BAC":"美国银行","01211":"比亚迪股份","AAPL":"苹果","USB":"美国合众银行","KO":"可口可乐","VZ":"威瑞森","CVX":"雪佛龙","CHTR":"特许通讯"},"source_url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1104198438","content_text":"Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.\nThe famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ballooned to a value of $281.17 billion by the end of 2020, or more than double the cumulative cost of building these stakes at $108.62 billion, according toBerkshire's latest annual shareholder letter.The value of the portfolio's total equity investments carried at market was up 13.4% compared to year-end 2019.

Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.\nAs a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.\nWhile Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.\n\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"\nMore recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.\nVerizon Communications\nVerizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.\nBerkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.\nThe holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.\nBut even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.\nMoody's Corporation\nBerkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.\nThe credit rating agency outperformed the S&P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.\nU.S. Bancorp\nU.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.\nThe firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.\nAs was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.\nBYD\nShenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).\nBerkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.\nChevron\nBerkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.\nBy year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.\nBerkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.\nCharter Communications\nCharter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020. In August of last year, Berkshire reported it had cut its stake by 4% to a total of about 5.2 million shares.\nThe sale still left Berkshire with a 2.7% stake in the company, and holdings worth $3.45 billion by year-end 2020, at a total cost of just $904 million. Berkshire had beenaccumulating its stake in Charter since 2014.\nShares of Charter Communications rose 36% in 2020, but have given back some of these gains after dipping 1.2% so far in 2021.\n* This analysis excludes Berkshire Hathaway's Kraft Heinz holding of 325,442,152 shares, since this is held using a different accounting method. Berkshire reported that the market value of these shares was $11.3 billion as of December 31, 2020.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":315,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":100465479,"gmtCreate":1619633759591,"gmtModify":1704727141217,"author":{"id":"3577253367844943","authorId":"3577253367844943","name":"MoneyMenon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a70761ae1345ccdbf44282a236a2414e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577253367844943","authorIdStr":"3577253367844943"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Amazing amzing","listText":"Amazing amzing","text":"Amazing amzing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/100465479","repostId":"1131068131","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1131068131","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619586637,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1131068131?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-28 13:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Facebook Reports Earnings Wednesday.

What That Would Mean for the Stock.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1179396069","media":"Barrons","summary":"Apple has its work cut out for it trying to surpass 2020’s blowout results. The thing is, the tech g","content":"<p>Apple has its work cut out for it trying to surpass 2020’s blowout results. The thing is, the tech giant just might be able to pull it off.</p>\n<p>The buzz around Apple last year was off the charts, even for what is the buzziest of technology companies. Anticipation of the fall launch of the company’s first 5G phones, surging demand for both Macs and iPads as the pandemic rolled on, and strength in both wearables and services fed off each other. The pieces all came together in the December quarter, when Apple (ticker: AAPL) posted its biggest quarter ever. Sales soared 21% to $111.4 billion, more than $8 billion over the Street consensus. Every product category—iPhone, iPad, Macs, wearables, and services—notched double-digit growth. Apple stock finished the year up 81%, adding nearly $1 trillion to its market cap.</p>\n<p>That’s a tough act to follow, particularly with the March quarter, which always slows from the holiday-boosted December quarter. But Apple could pull off the quintuple double again when its results come out after the bell Wednesday. The Street certainly thinks so, even if the market, which has pushed Apple shares up less than 2% in 2021, has been more cautious. Consensus estimates call for double-digit increases from last year across the board: iPhones sales up 43%, to $41.4 billion; iPad sales up 29%, to $5.6 billion; Mac sales of $6.8 billion, up 27%; wearables sales (mostly Apple Watch and AirPods) of $7.4 billion, up 18%; and a 16% bump in services, to $15.5 billion.</p>\n<p>Overall, the Street consensus expects sales of $77 billion, up 32% from a year ago, with profits of 98 cents a share. That would be the fastest top-line growth rate for any Apple quarter since March 2012, when revenues were about half what they are now. And most bullish Apple analysts seem to think their own estimates are too low—a print at $77 billion would likely trigger a selloff in the stock.</p>\n<p>Apple is also expected to provide an update on its capital-allocation strategy. A year ago,the company announced a 6% dividend increase, and boosted its stock repurchase plan by $50 billion. Apple has said repeatedly that it is pushing to get to a cash neutral position, but its remarkably big cash flow has slowed progress toward that goal.</p>\n<p>As always, the quarter is about more than just earnings.</p>\n<p>For one, the Street will be looking for signs that the sales surge for Macs and iPads is sustainable—and that the company is keeping up with demand despite widespread chip and display shortages. Some investors worry that the spike in PC demand could ebb as more people return to schools and offices. They’ll be looking for company guidance on that point.</p>\n<p>Another is the sustainability of the resurgence in iPhone growth. There were high hopes among bulls that the iPhone 12 would drive a “supercycle” with an accelerated replacement cycle. Several analysts have noted that a clear consumer preference for the high end of the iPhone 12 line is driving up average selling prices, which should support a strong revenue quarter for the segment.</p>\n<p>“Given the later-than-seasonal launch of new iPhones in the fall of 2020, we believe iPhone demand will experience more favorable year-over-year comparisons this March quarter compared to past years,” writes Monness Crespi Hardt’s Brian White, who sees 47% iPhone revenue growth during the quarter.</p>\n<p>And if Apple pulls it all together? Apple could crush Street estimates, writes Morgan Stanley analyst Katy Huberty, who has an Overweight rating and a $158 price target on the stock, up 17% from Monday’s close of $134.72. She sees the top line above $80 billion, with all segments growing at least 19% year over year.

The thing is, the tech giant just might be able to pull it off.\nThe buzz around Apple last year was off the charts, even for what is the buzziest of technology companies. Anticipation of the fall launch of the company’s first 5G phones, surging demand for both Macs and iPads as the pandemic rolled on, and strength in both wearables and services fed off each other. The pieces all came together in the December quarter, when Apple (ticker: AAPL) posted its biggest quarter ever. Sales soared 21% to $111.4 billion, more than $8 billion over the Street consensus. Every product category—iPhone, iPad, Macs, wearables, and services—notched double-digit growth. Apple stock finished the year up 81%, adding nearly $1 trillion to its market cap.\nThat’s a tough act to follow, particularly with the March quarter, which always slows from the holiday-boosted December quarter. But Apple could pull off the quintuple double again when its results come out after the bell Wednesday. The Street certainly thinks so, even if the market, which has pushed Apple shares up less than 2% in 2021, has been more cautious. Consensus estimates call for double-digit increases from last year across the board: iPhones sales up 43%, to $41.4 billion; iPad sales up 29%, to $5.6 billion; Mac sales of $6.8 billion, up 27%; wearables sales (mostly Apple Watch and AirPods) of $7.4 billion, up 18%; and a 16% bump in services, to $15.5 billion.\nOverall, the Street consensus expects sales of $77 billion, up 32% from a year ago, with profits of 98 cents a share. That would be the fastest top-line growth rate for any Apple quarter since March 2012, when revenues were about half what they are now. And most bullish Apple analysts seem to think their own estimates are too low—a print at $77 billion would likely trigger a selloff in the stock.\nApple is also expected to provide an update on its capital-allocation strategy. A year ago,the company announced a 6% dividend increase, and boosted its stock repurchase plan by $50 billion. Apple has said repeatedly that it is pushing to get to a cash neutral position, but its remarkably big cash flow has slowed progress toward that goal.\nAs always, the quarter is about more than just earnings.\nFor one, the Street will be looking for signs that the sales surge for Macs and iPads is sustainable—and that the company is keeping up with demand despite widespread chip and display shortages. Some investors worry that the spike in PC demand could ebb as more people return to schools and offices. They’ll be looking for company guidance on that point.\nAnother is the sustainability of the resurgence in iPhone growth. There were high hopes among bulls that the iPhone 12 would drive a “supercycle” with an accelerated replacement cycle. Several analysts have noted that a clear consumer preference for the high end of the iPhone 12 line is driving up average selling prices, which should support a strong revenue quarter for the segment.\n“Given the later-than-seasonal launch of new iPhones in the fall of 2020, we believe iPhone demand will experience more favorable year-over-year comparisons this March quarter compared to past years,” writes Monness Crespi Hardt’s Brian White, who sees 47% iPhone revenue growth during the quarter.\nAnd if Apple pulls it all together? Apple could crush Street estimates, writes Morgan Stanley analyst Katy Huberty, who has an Overweight rating and a $158 price target on the stock, up 17% from Monday’s close of $134.72. She sees the top line above $80 billion, with all segments growing at least 19% year over year. She is especially bullish on Mac and iPad sales, with estimates far above consensus—53% for Macs and 52% for iPads. She also expects Apple to increase its dividend by 10% and expand its stock repurchase program by $60 billion.\nThat would certainly qualify as a job well done.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":390,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":374652585,"gmtCreate":1619445636147,"gmtModify":1704724012810,"author":{"id":"3577253367844943","authorId":"3577253367844943","name":"MoneyMenon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a70761ae1345ccdbf44282a236a2414e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577253367844943","authorIdStr":"3577253367844943"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice post","listText":"Nice post","text":"Nice post","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/374652585","repostId":"1176959555","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1176959555","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619444660,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1176959555?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-26 21:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The 10 basic rules that made Warren Buffett $100 billion","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1176959555","media":"Yahoo","summary":"Warren Buffett's fortune recently surpassed $100 billion, as shares of his company Berkshire Hathawa","content":"<p>Warren Buffett's fortune recently surpassed $100 billion, as shares of his company Berkshire Hathaway hit an all-time high.</p><p>It's an incredibly rare achievement — and yet the "Oracle of Omaha" is actually a pretty simple guy.

He still lives in his hometown. He eats fast food and guzzles soda \"like a 6-year-old.\" And his strategies for smart investing aren't too complicated.If it's so easy, why aren't more people as rich as Buffett? Because his approach takes the kind of discipline and patience that many people either don't have or are unwilling to develop.Take a look at 10 of his money-making rules and see whether you can be just a little bit more like Buffett.1. It all starts with good communicationBuffett's first key to prosperity has little to do with picking stocks. He says you need to become a strong communicator: Wield words as your most important tools.\"Without good communication skills, you won’t be able to convince people to follow you even though you see over the mountain and they don't,\" Buffett once told a Stanford MBA student.While this may seem like sage advice for financial planners, it's good for helping anyone develop leadership skills and the ability to think in stressful situations.2. Look forward, not to the pastBuffett famously stated in the 1950s that \"the investor of today does not profit from yesterday's growth.\" This maxim still holds true today.According to Buffett, following past trends is much less important than identifying new opportunities. When deciding whether to invest in a company, focus on what's in its future, not its history.Don't stay stuck in the past when it comes to your mortgage either. If you've had your home loan for more than a year, you're probably overdue on a refinance to take advantage oftoday's historically low mortgage rates.3. When investing, innovate — don't followAdopting a herd mentality is a surefire way to get middling results, Buffett believes. \"You need to divorce your mind from the crowd,\" he has said.It's tough, but you have to break out from the pack by developing your own investing strategy based on your knowledge and experience. \"To be a successful investor you must divorce yourself from the fears and greed of the people around you, although it is almost impossible,\" Buffett says.At the same time, be open to good advice. Financial planning services — which todayare affordable and available online— can help guide you toward your dream retirement.4. Live frugallyBuffett famously lives well below his means. He has been known to drive an older, modest car. He still resides in the house he bought in Omaha, Nebraska, for $31,500 in 1958, and he picks up breakfast at a McDonald's drive-thru almost every day.5. Always be willing to learn new thingsBuffett likes to say that knowledge accumulates just like interest in the bank. He starts each day with a newspaper, and he reads books on various topics every day.Consuming information will not only influence your investing, but it also will prepare you for success in all areas of life. Soak up what others can tell you about new technologies and new strategies.Those who avoid learning new things risk becoming obsolete. Be like Buffett, and you'll never grow too old to learn a new trick.6. Know when to fold 'emDon't get the wrong idea — Buffett does sell stocks when he has to. When the pandemic hit, Berkshire Hathaway sold the entirety of its equity position in the U.S. airline industry.The trick for long-term investing success is knowing when to walk away. Buffett learned these lessons as a young man betting on horse races. He tried to make up for losses by increasing his bets, and he lost more money.Recognize when a stock is a genuine loser, so you can walk away and minimize your losses. If you use an app that allows you toinvest your spare change, your portfolio will be adjusted automatically to protect you when a stock is in trouble.7. Think loooooooong term\"Buy and hold\" is a common, long-term investment strategy that calls for sticking with a stock even when it's having a bad day — or month.Buffett's approach might be called \"buy and hold and hold.\" As he likes to tell his Berkshire Hathaway shareholders, \"Our favorite holding period is forever.\"He doesn't mind when a stock takes an occasional tumble, because those are good opportunities to buy more shares at a discount.8. Never invest borrowed moneyWhen investing, use your own money. Buffett says it's \"crazy\" to borrow. \"It's insane to risk what you have and need for something you don't really need,\" he told CNBC.If you borrow to invest, your strategies will be too closely tied to your need to repay the money. Some investments require long-term planning and holding out for growth, which is difficult with a debt hanging over your head.Doug WhitemanMon, April 26, 2021, 2:00 AM·6 min readThe 10 basic rules that made Warren Buffett $100 billionWarren Buffett's fortune recently surpassed $100 billion, as shares of his company Berkshire Hathaway hit an all-time high.It's an incredibly rare achievement — and yet the \"Oracle of Omaha\" is actually a pretty simple guy.

His company, Berkshire Hathaway, gets hundreds of millions of dollars each year from Coca-Cola in the form of dividends.Dividends come from reliable companies that consistently meet or exceed their goals.

Some estimates implied that Tesla would take a lion's share of the EV market despite the rapid increase in the number of competitors.</p>\n<p>By 2025, Tesla not only has to contend with pure-play EV-makers. It will also face new entrants such as Apple Inc. (AAPL) as well as Chinese smartphone giants Huawei and Xiaomi Corporation (OTC:XIACF)(OTCPK:XIACY). More traditional automakers will also be producing electric vehicles, even as they continue to churn out internal combustion engine-based cars.</p>\n<p>Even if the demand side is plausible, it would mean Tesla, Inc. needs to build many more factories. Given the effusive praise we have heard from Elon Musk regarding the speed of factory construction and on China in general, we could expect additional new plants to be cited in the populous country. That could add more geopolitical risks to the stock, as SA author John Engle argued.</p>\n<p>Then again, as many readers on Seeking Alpha, analysts, and Cathie Wood have postulated, Tesla's true potential lies in a future rollout of an autonomous ride-hailing fleet. Consequently, Tesla's revenue is projected to rise from $31.54 billion in 2020 to a whopping $388.52 billion on a consensus basis in 2030. That would bring the price-to-sales ratio to a mere 1.84 times on a forward basis.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fac352f9c2ac9bac0412ed076c27c75a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"368\"><span>Source: Seeking Alpha Premium</span></p>\n<p>If Tesla did not disappoint the most bullish of the optimists forecasting its revenue to hit $600.7 billion in 2030, its P/S ratio would drop even lower to 1.19 times! You might say, all that sales are wonderful but what does their profitability look like? Well, the analysts believe TSLA would make boatloads of money. The consensus EPS estimate for 2030 is $33.48, a massive jump from the $0.64 it achieved in 2020. If the 2030 EPS estimate is realized, those earnings at today's price would reflect a ratio of 22.2 times, which could be seen as incredibly low.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7650450aa6230d6585a502b571ee3652\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"278\"><span>Source: Seeking Alpha Premium</span></p>\n<p>With EV sales projected by industry consultancy Canalys to remain below 50 percent of the total car sales by 2030, there remains significant growth potential for Tesla to increase its revenue. As such, assuming the analysts are correct, the share price of TSLA will not stay at the present level for the P/S ratio to be just 1.84 times and the P/E ratio at 22.2 times, the share price of TSLA would rise further than where it stands today.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0cd810d4171606b50d186b8d9bf10bf5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"479\"></p>\n<p>Tesla stock split history: What was Tesla's stock price before the recent split?</p>\n<p>In other words, Tesla's share price would continue to rise over the next five to ten years. With that in mind, the question is, will TSLA split again? Before discussing that, let's review Tesla's previous split.</p>\n<p>On August 11, 2020, Tesla announced, after the market closed, that its board approved a five-for-one split of shares to \"make stock ownership more accessible to employees and investors.\" This marked Tesla's first-ever split announcement. The stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c1b22a860341fe3bf36996d737680ddb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"485\"></p>\n<p><b>How did Tesla's most recent stock split affect share prices?</b></p>\n<p>Interestingly, after the split was affected, Tesla stock lost much of the August gains in just a few trading sessions in early September. The share price decline was speculated by some to be due to shareholders paring their holdings since the split had resulted in them holding more TSLA shares. This seems logical as the purpose of the split was to accord shareholders with greater \"liquidity\" over their TSLA holding.</p>\n<p>However, the weakness in Tesla's share price was more likely attributable to a capital-raising exercise announced pre-market on September 1, 2020. Although only up to $5 billion worth of shares representing just over 1 percent of Tesla's market cap were to be sold, investors were probably looking for a trigger to take profit considering that TSLA was running in overbought territory for more than two weeks, according to the relative strength index [RSI] momentum indicator at that time.</p>\n<p>TSLA's strong run upwards had also led to the stock becoming \"overweight\" on many shareholders' portfolios. Ironically, that meant investors, whether individuals or fund managers had to reduce their Tesla holdings to avoid concentration risk. For funds with concentration guidelines or rules, it's not even a choice but a mandatory reduction exercise once the Tesla position became outsized.</p>\n<p>To make matters worse, Tesla stock was subsequently dragged down further into correction territory amid a sell-off by investors of tech favorites and \"all things frothy.\" The share price recovered some grounds quickly but the stock stagnated for a few months thereafter before a powerful wave of EV hypeswept TSLA up again to new heights.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/085a34d7256fb764f0652d6223057202\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"267\"><span>Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p><b>When will Tesla stock split again?</b></p>\n<p>Although Tesla's share price has pulled back from the peak earlier in the year, it remains much higher than the post-split level last year. At $744.12 at the time of writing, TSLA is 49 percent higher than the $498.32 close on August 31, 2020, the day of the stock split.</p>\n<p>If the past is any reference, Tesla executives did the stock split when the share price was in quadruple-digit. TSLA will need to rise more than 34 percent for that to happen again. As I opined earlier, Tesla stock appears to be poised for further upside. I believe it's more of a question of when, not if, will TSLA hit above $1,000 per share.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, even in the current investing environment where there are platforms allowing the trading of fractional shares, there are still benefits for stocks with smaller prices. One obvious advantage is the impact on psychology, as the mind interprets low prices as \"cheaply valued\" and having room to head north.</p>\n<p>The leadership at Apple must be thinking the same as the folks at Tesla when the company executed its stock split around the same time as the EV giant last August. The share price appreciation from pre-announcement to post-stock split date was less spectacular compared to Tesla but still a hefty 41 percent.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/46bd0bed00b03ba1d738fd84c9dfb0dc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"483\"></p>\n<p>Considering that Apple announced a stock split when the share price was much lower at $384.76, it goes to show there's value in considering a split in the stock even without the share price hitting quadruple-digit. Furthermore, AAPL has done this four times before - in 1987, 2000, 2005, and 2014 - when the share prices were all below $1,000. In 1987 and 2005, the stock was even trading at the sub-$100 level when the company did the split.</p>\n<p>Jim Cramer was quoted as saying during an interview last year that Tim Cook explained the 2020 stock split to him, telling him that he wanted \"more people in the stock.\" I suppose that's what Bill Gates and his team thought when the software giant performed eight stock splits from the listing of Microsoft (MSFT) until 1999 as MSFT climbed exponentially during the period. Elon Musk and Tim Cook are the odd couple but I believe the former would agree on having \"more people\" in TSLA stock.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/44957db620e86907bb72e9691bc726e6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"250\"><span>Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p><b>Should you buy Tesla now or wait for a split?</b></p>\n<p>Video-streaming leader Netflix (NFLX) announced a seven-for-one stock split in 2015 when its share was around $700 pre-split. NFLX went on to do very well though it's very much due to its business success than a simple cosmetic stock split exercise. The point of bringing this up is that Tesla's share price is around where Netflix's share price was when the split was completed.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f3cbb0c9bd178401bc6cc863a0934af2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"271\"><span>Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p>Although Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) and Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL)(GOOG) are the odd tech companies trading at quadruple-digit levels, most others are trading in the triple-digit or smaller. With the favorable experience from the previous stock split, Tesla might not want to wait for the share price to hit quadruple-digit again before contemplating another split.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, there is existing literature that reveals a strong correlation between stock splits and \"outstanding stock price performance\", giving Tesla the impetus to do so. Another potential trigger point for Elon Musk to announce a stock split could be when TSLA hit $840 per share. He would be able to claim that the company would do a two-for-one split so that the share price becomes $420 post-split.</p>\n<p>Of course, the share price wouldn't stay flat from the announcement date until the effective date.

Some estimates implied that Tesla would take a lion's share of the EV market despite the rapid increase in the number of competitors.\nBy 2025, Tesla not only has to contend with pure-play EV-makers. It will also face new entrants such as Apple Inc. (AAPL) as well as Chinese smartphone giants Huawei and Xiaomi Corporation (OTC:XIACF)(OTCPK:XIACY). More traditional automakers will also be producing electric vehicles, even as they continue to churn out internal combustion engine-based cars.\nEven if the demand side is plausible, it would mean Tesla, Inc. needs to build many more factories. Given the effusive praise we have heard from Elon Musk regarding the speed of factory construction and on China in general, we could expect additional new plants to be cited in the populous country. That could add more geopolitical risks to the stock, as SA author John Engle argued.\nThen again, as many readers on Seeking Alpha, analysts, and Cathie Wood have postulated, Tesla's true potential lies in a future rollout of an autonomous ride-hailing fleet. Consequently, Tesla's revenue is projected to rise from $31.54 billion in 2020 to a whopping $388.52 billion on a consensus basis in 2030. That would bring the price-to-sales ratio to a mere 1.84 times on a forward basis.\nSource: Seeking Alpha Premium\nIf Tesla did not disappoint the most bullish of the optimists forecasting its revenue to hit $600.7 billion in 2030, its P/S ratio would drop even lower to 1.19 times! You might say, all that sales are wonderful but what does their profitability look like? Well, the analysts believe TSLA would make boatloads of money. The consensus EPS estimate for 2030 is $33.48, a massive jump from the $0.64 it achieved in 2020. If the 2030 EPS estimate is realized, those earnings at today's price would reflect a ratio of 22.2 times, which could be seen as incredibly low.\nSource: Seeking Alpha Premium\nWith EV sales projected by industry consultancy Canalys to remain below 50 percent of the total car sales by 2030, there remains significant growth potential for Tesla to increase its revenue. As such, assuming the analysts are correct, the share price of TSLA will not stay at the present level for the P/S ratio to be just 1.84 times and the P/E ratio at 22.2 times, the share price of TSLA would rise further than where it stands today.\n\nTesla stock split history: What was Tesla's stock price before the recent split?\nIn other words, Tesla's share price would continue to rise over the next five to ten years. With that in mind, the question is, will TSLA split again? Before discussing that, let's review Tesla's previous split.\nOn August 11, 2020, Tesla announced, after the market closed, that its board approved a five-for-one split of shares to \"make stock ownership more accessible to employees and investors.\" This marked Tesla's first-ever split announcement. The stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.\n\nHow did Tesla's most recent stock split affect share prices?\nInterestingly, after the split was affected, Tesla stock lost much of the August gains in just a few trading sessions in early September. The share price decline was speculated by some to be due to shareholders paring their holdings since the split had resulted in them holding more TSLA shares. This seems logical as the purpose of the split was to accord shareholders with greater \"liquidity\" over their TSLA holding.\nHowever, the weakness in Tesla's share price was more likely attributable to a capital-raising exercise announced pre-market on September 1, 2020. Although only up to $5 billion worth of shares representing just over 1 percent of Tesla's market cap were to be sold, investors were probably looking for a trigger to take profit considering that TSLA was running in overbought territory for more than two weeks, according to the relative strength index [RSI] momentum indicator at that time.\nTSLA's strong run upwards had also led to the stock becoming \"overweight\" on many shareholders' portfolios. Ironically, that meant investors, whether individuals or fund managers had to reduce their Tesla holdings to avoid concentration risk. For funds with concentration guidelines or rules, it's not even a choice but a mandatory reduction exercise once the Tesla position became outsized.\nTo make matters worse, Tesla stock was subsequently dragged down further into correction territory amid a sell-off by investors of tech favorites and \"all things frothy.\" The share price recovered some grounds quickly but the stock stagnated for a few months thereafter before a powerful wave of EV hypeswept TSLA up again to new heights.\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nWhen will Tesla stock split again?\nAlthough Tesla's share price has pulled back from the peak earlier in the year, it remains much higher than the post-split level last year. At $744.12 at the time of writing, TSLA is 49 percent higher than the $498.32 close on August 31, 2020, the day of the stock split.\nIf the past is any reference, Tesla executives did the stock split when the share price was in quadruple-digit. TSLA will need to rise more than 34 percent for that to happen again. As I opined earlier, Tesla stock appears to be poised for further upside. I believe it's more of a question of when, not if, will TSLA hit above $1,000 per share.\nNevertheless, even in the current investing environment where there are platforms allowing the trading of fractional shares, there are still benefits for stocks with smaller prices. One obvious advantage is the impact on psychology, as the mind interprets low prices as \"cheaply valued\" and having room to head north.\nThe leadership at Apple must be thinking the same as the folks at Tesla when the company executed its stock split around the same time as the EV giant last August. The share price appreciation from pre-announcement to post-stock split date was less spectacular compared to Tesla but still a hefty 41 percent.\n\nConsidering that Apple announced a stock split when the share price was much lower at $384.76, it goes to show there's value in considering a split in the stock even without the share price hitting quadruple-digit. Furthermore, AAPL has done this four times before - in 1987, 2000, 2005, and 2014 - when the share prices were all below $1,000. In 1987 and 2005, the stock was even trading at the sub-$100 level when the company did the split.\nJim Cramer was quoted as saying during an interview last year that Tim Cook explained the 2020 stock split to him, telling him that he wanted \"more people in the stock.\" I suppose that's what Bill Gates and his team thought when the software giant performed eight stock splits from the listing of Microsoft (MSFT) until 1999 as MSFT climbed exponentially during the period. Elon Musk and Tim Cook are the odd couple but I believe the former would agree on having \"more people\" in TSLA stock.\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nShould you buy Tesla now or wait for a split?\nVideo-streaming leader Netflix (NFLX) announced a seven-for-one stock split in 2015 when its share was around $700 pre-split. NFLX went on to do very well though it's very much due to its business success than a simple cosmetic stock split exercise. The point of bringing this up is that Tesla's share price is around where Netflix's share price was when the split was completed.\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nAlthough Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) and Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL)(GOOG) are the odd tech companies trading at quadruple-digit levels, most others are trading in the triple-digit or smaller. With the favorable experience from the previous stock split, Tesla might not want to wait for the share price to hit quadruple-digit again before contemplating another split.\nFurthermore, there is existing literature that reveals a strong correlation between stock splits and \"outstanding stock price performance\", giving Tesla the impetus to do so. Another potential trigger point for Elon Musk to announce a stock split could be when TSLA hit $840 per share. He would be able to claim that the company would do a two-for-one split so that the share price becomes $420 post-split.\nOf course, the share price wouldn't stay flat from the announcement date until the effective date. Nonetheless, the media would have gone into overdrive covering the announcement and speculating about the number's link to weed as well as Elon's past brush with the securities law on his previous take-Tesla-private-at-$420 claim. This would generate plenty of free publicity for the company.\nHowever, investors should not hang around for a stock split if they are intending to own shares in Tesla. It may not happen and the share price could still zoom upwards on speculations, improving sentiment, or due to business fundamentals.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":118,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":372631026,"gmtCreate":1619197186965,"gmtModify":1704721206848,"author":{"id":"3577253367844943","authorId":"3577253367844943","name":"MoneyMenon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a70761ae1345ccdbf44282a236a2414e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577253367844943","authorIdStr":"3577253367844943"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy!!!","listText":"Buy!!!","text":"Buy!!!","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fd9448f840402beeb7f1d18aec6116a9","width":"1125","height":"3504"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/372631026","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":48,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":372633463,"gmtCreate":1619197137352,"gmtModify":1704721206201,"author":{"id":"3577253367844943","authorId":"3577253367844943","name":"MoneyMenon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a70761ae1345ccdbf44282a236a2414e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577253367844943","authorIdStr":"3577253367844943"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$</a>I love nio","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NIO\">$NIO Inc.(NIO)$</a>I love nio","text":"$NIO Inc.(NIO)$I love nio","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ece81e10e577f2cc51ca82129ea55747","width":"1242","height":"1767"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/372633463","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":151,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":378924240,"gmtCreate":1618993689880,"gmtModify":1704717998762,"author":{"id":"3577253367844943","authorId":"3577253367844943","name":"MoneyMenon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a70761ae1345ccdbf44282a236a2414e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577253367844943","authorIdStr":"3577253367844943"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Amazing!

However, Berkshire's own stock underperformed the broader market over that time period: The S&P 500 rose 16.3% in 2020, without including reinvested dividends, while Berkshire's Class B shares increased 2.4%.</p>\n<p>Berkshire's stock performance in 2020 relative to the broader market, however, belies what has been, in aggregate, decades of outperformance for the Omaha, Nebraska-based company. Berkshire Hathaway's annual compounded gain between 1965 and 2020 was 20%, versus just 10.2% for the S&P 500. And the firm's cumulative returns over that period have been a whopping 2,810,526% to the S&P 500's 23,454%.</p>\n<p>On May 1, Buffett and long-time business partner Charlie Munger will hold Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting in Los Angeles. This may serve as a forum for the pair to discuss additional investments purchased and sold in the first months of 2021, ahead of formal 13-F filing reveals later in the month. Last year, Buffett disclosed at the annual meeting thatBerkshire had sold out of its entire interest in the airline stocksAmerican Airlines (AAL), United Airlines (UAL), Delta Air Lines (DAL) and Southwest Airlines (LUV)in the first quarter of 2020.</p>\n<p>Here's how Berkshire's top 10 stock investments by market value fared over the course of the pandemic, based on the stakes disclosed in the Buffett's latest annual shareholder letter.*</p>\n<p><b>Apple</b></p>\n<p>Buffett pointed to Apple (AAPL) as one of the most valuable assets for Berkshire Hathaway alongside the firm's insurance operation and BNSF Railway, thanks in large part to the iPhone-maker's hefty share repurchases.</p>\n<p>Berkshire owned 907,559,761 shares of Apple as of the end of December for a total market value of $120.4 billion. By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.</p>\n<p>That massive holding — comprising 44% of Berkshire's disclosed assets, according to Bloomberg data — came even after the firm pocketed $11 billion after selling a small portion of its position in 2020.</p>\n<p>\"Despite that sale – voila! – Berkshire now owns 5.4% of Apple,\" Buffett said in the shareholder letter. \"That increase was costless to us,<b>coming about because Apple</b>has continuously repurchased its shares, thereby substantially shrinking the number it now has outstanding.\"</p>\n<p>Though Buffett hashistorically steered away from investing in technology companiesin favor of businesses he has understood more deeply, Berkshire's major holding in Apple proved auspicious during the pandemic, when Big Tech companies led the market higher.</p>\n<p>Apple's stock posted a total return of 82% in 2020, outperforming every other \"FAANG\" stock including Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Alphabet. The run-up has since cooled in early 2021, however, with the stock posting a total return of just 1.4% for the year-to-date through market close on April 27.</p>\n<p><b>Bank of America</b></p>\n<p>While Berkshire Hathaway unloaded many of its bank stock holdings over the course of 2020, it increased its stake in Bank of America (BAC).</p>\n<p>The firm held 1,032,952,006 shares of Bank of America as of the end of 2020, after adding 85.1 million shares in the third quarter alone. This gave Berkshire Hathaway an ownership stake of 11.9%.</p>\n<p>By the end of last year, the value of that holding was worth $31.3 million, and cost $14.6 million to amass.</p>\n<p>The increase in the size of Berkshire Hathaway's Bank of America holding bucked the trend of the other bank stocks in the portfolio last year. Berkshire cut its holdings of Wells Fargo (EFC) from 345.7 million shares at year-end 2019 to 52.4 million by year-end 2020, and completely exited its holdings in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and M&T Bank Corp (MTB).</p>\n<p>With interest rates sliding amid ultra-accommodative monetary policy during the pandemic, bank stocks were among the worst performers last year. Bank of America shares fell nearly 14% in 2020, underperforming against both the S&P 500 and S&P 500 financials sector, which dropped just 4.1%. However, with interest rates back on the rise and consumer spending accelerating, shares have already started to reverse these declines, and Bank of America shares have risen 32% so far in 2021.</p>\n<p><b>The Coca-Cola Company</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway's stake in Coca-Cola (KO) remained unchanged between 2019 and 2020 at 400 million shares, offering 9.3% ownership in the beverage giant. Buffett has been a long-time investor in the firm, having first purchased shares in Berkshire's portfolio in 1988. It has comprised a significant portion of the firm's total holdings and mark value value ever since.</p>\n<p>This long-term investment has paid off for the company, with the market value of the shares held totaling $21.9 billion at the end of 2020. Berkshire spent just under $1.3 billion building its stake in Coca-Cola.</p>\n<p>While Berkshire's overall return on its investment in Coca-Cola has been formidable, the stock did underperform the broader market in 2020. Coca-Cola shares declined 0.9% during the year as a dearth of live events and concessions weighed on sales, though the stock did still eke out a total return of 2.44% during the year with reinvested dividends. Shares have extended a run of underperformance in 2021, with the stock falling 1.5% so far this year.</p>\n<p><b>American Express</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway held 151,610,700 shares of American Express (AXP) as of the end of 2020, with the stock comprising another of the firm's long-standing investments. Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.</p>\n<p>As a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.</p>\n<p>While Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"</p>\n<p>More recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.</p>\n<p><b>Verizon Communications</b></p>\n<p>Verizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.</p>\n<p>The holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.</p>\n<p>But even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Moody's Corporation</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.</p>\n<p>The credit rating agency outperformed the S&P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>U.S. Bancorp</b></p>\n<p>U.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.</p>\n<p>As was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>BYD</b></p>\n<p>Shenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).</p>\n<p>Berkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.</p>\n<p><b>Chevron</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.</p>\n<p>By year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 for the year-to-date.

However, Berkshire's own stock underperformed the broader market over that time period: The S&P 500 rose 16.3% in 2020, without including reinvested dividends, while Berkshire's Class B shares increased 2.4%.\nBerkshire's stock performance in 2020 relative to the broader market, however, belies what has been, in aggregate, decades of outperformance for the Omaha, Nebraska-based company. Berkshire Hathaway's annual compounded gain between 1965 and 2020 was 20%, versus just 10.2% for the S&P 500. And the firm's cumulative returns over that period have been a whopping 2,810,526% to the S&P 500's 23,454%.\nOn May 1, Buffett and long-time business partner Charlie Munger will hold Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting in Los Angeles. This may serve as a forum for the pair to discuss additional investments purchased and sold in the first months of 2021, ahead of formal 13-F filing reveals later in the month. Last year, Buffett disclosed at the annual meeting thatBerkshire had sold out of its entire interest in the airline stocksAmerican Airlines (AAL), United Airlines (UAL), Delta Air Lines (DAL) and Southwest Airlines (LUV)in the first quarter of 2020.\nHere's how Berkshire's top 10 stock investments by market value fared over the course of the pandemic, based on the stakes disclosed in the Buffett's latest annual shareholder letter.*\nApple\nBuffett pointed to Apple (AAPL) as one of the most valuable assets for Berkshire Hathaway alongside the firm's insurance operation and BNSF Railway, thanks in large part to the iPhone-maker's hefty share repurchases.\nBerkshire owned 907,559,761 shares of Apple as of the end of December for a total market value of $120.4 billion. By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.\nThat massive holding — comprising 44% of Berkshire's disclosed assets, according to Bloomberg data — came even after the firm pocketed $11 billion after selling a small portion of its position in 2020.\n\"Despite that sale – voila! – Berkshire now owns 5.4% of Apple,\" Buffett said in the shareholder letter. \"That increase was costless to us,coming about because Applehas continuously repurchased its shares, thereby substantially shrinking the number it now has outstanding.\"\nThough Buffett hashistorically steered away from investing in technology companiesin favor of businesses he has understood more deeply, Berkshire's major holding in Apple proved auspicious during the pandemic, when Big Tech companies led the market higher.\nApple's stock posted a total return of 82% in 2020, outperforming every other \"FAANG\" stock including Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Alphabet. The run-up has since cooled in early 2021, however, with the stock posting a total return of just 1.4% for the year-to-date through market close on April 27.\nBank of America\nWhile Berkshire Hathaway unloaded many of its bank stock holdings over the course of 2020, it increased its stake in Bank of America (BAC).\nThe firm held 1,032,952,006 shares of Bank of America as of the end of 2020, after adding 85.1 million shares in the third quarter alone. This gave Berkshire Hathaway an ownership stake of 11.9%.\nBy the end of last year, the value of that holding was worth $31.3 million, and cost $14.6 million to amass.\nThe increase in the size of Berkshire Hathaway's Bank of America holding bucked the trend of the other bank stocks in the portfolio last year. Berkshire cut its holdings of Wells Fargo (EFC) from 345.7 million shares at year-end 2019 to 52.4 million by year-end 2020, and completely exited its holdings in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and M&T Bank Corp (MTB).\nWith interest rates sliding amid ultra-accommodative monetary policy during the pandemic, bank stocks were among the worst performers last year. Bank of America shares fell nearly 14% in 2020, underperforming against both the S&P 500 and S&P 500 financials sector, which dropped just 4.1%. However, with interest rates back on the rise and consumer spending accelerating, shares have already started to reverse these declines, and Bank of America shares have risen 32% so far in 2021.\nThe Coca-Cola Company\nBerkshire Hathaway's stake in Coca-Cola (KO) remained unchanged between 2019 and 2020 at 400 million shares, offering 9.3% ownership in the beverage giant. Buffett has been a long-time investor in the firm, having first purchased shares in Berkshire's portfolio in 1988. It has comprised a significant portion of the firm's total holdings and mark value value ever since.\nThis long-term investment has paid off for the company, with the market value of the shares held totaling $21.9 billion at the end of 2020. Berkshire spent just under $1.3 billion building its stake in Coca-Cola.\nWhile Berkshire's overall return on its investment in Coca-Cola has been formidable, the stock did underperform the broader market in 2020. Coca-Cola shares declined 0.9% during the year as a dearth of live events and concessions weighed on sales, though the stock did still eke out a total return of 2.44% during the year with reinvested dividends. Shares have extended a run of underperformance in 2021, with the stock falling 1.5% so far this year.\nAmerican Express\nBerkshire Hathaway held 151,610,700 shares of American Express (AXP) as of the end of 2020, with the stock comprising another of the firm's long-standing investments. Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.\nAs a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.\nWhile Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.\n\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"\nMore recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.\nVerizon Communications\nVerizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.\nBerkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.\nThe holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.\nBut even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.\nMoody's Corporation\nBerkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.\nThe credit rating agency outperformed the S&P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.\nU.S. Bancorp\nU.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.\nThe firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.\nAs was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.\nBYD\nShenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).\nBerkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.\nChevron\nBerkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.\nBy year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.\nBerkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.\nCharter Communications\nCharter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020. In August of last year, Berkshire reported it had cut its stake by 4% to a total of about 5.2 million shares.\nThe sale still left Berkshire with a 2.7% stake in the company, and holdings worth $3.45 billion by year-end 2020, at a total cost of just $904 million. Berkshire had beenaccumulating its stake in Charter since 2014.\nShares of Charter Communications rose 36% in 2020, but have given back some of these gains after dipping 1.2% so far in 2021.\n* This analysis excludes Berkshire Hathaway's Kraft Heinz holding of 325,442,152 shares, since this is held using a different accounting method. Berkshire reported that the market value of these shares was $11.3 billion as of December 31, 2020.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":315,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":100465479,"gmtCreate":1619633759591,"gmtModify":1704727141217,"author":{"id":"3577253367844943","authorId":"3577253367844943","name":"MoneyMenon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a70761ae1345ccdbf44282a236a2414e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577253367844943","authorIdStr":"3577253367844943"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Amazing amzing","listText":"Amazing amzing","text":"Amazing amzing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/100465479","repostId":"1131068131","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1131068131","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619586637,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1131068131?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-28 13:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Facebook Reports Earnings Wednesday. Here Is What to Expect.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1131068131","media":"Barrons","summary":"Despite controversy, economic damage to online ads amid Covid-19 pandemic-related economic turmoil, ","content":"<p>Despite controversy, economic damage to online ads amid Covid-19 pandemic-related economic turmoil, and antitrust scrutiny, Facebook is expected to report another blockbuster quarter Wednesday.</p>\n<p>As demonstrated by powerful results last week from Snapchat maker Snap (ticker: SNAP), digital advertising is coming back, fast. Facebook (FB) stands to make even more money than Snap. Analysts expect a net profit of nearly $7 billion, which amounts to $2.61 a share, when Facebook reports results after the closing bell Wednesday.</p>\n<p>Including sales of its virtual reality hardware, and other devices—which are expected contribute to the estimated $452 million to the “Other” revenue segment—Facebook revenue is expected to rise roughly 33% to $23.71 billion. The ad business will contribute revenue of $23.29 billion.</p>\n<p>Facebook is expected to grow its user base by tens of millions as well. Analysts forecast its daily member count will rise to 1.87 billion, and monthly user base will top 2.83 billion. Its monthly user base is expected to reach almost 3 billion (2.99 billion) by the end of the year.</p>\n<p>Beyond advertising, BMO Capital Markets analyst Daniel Salmon wrote in a research note that commerce and shopping are becoming more important for Facebook’s success.</p>\n<p>In March, Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg said there were one million Facebook Shops, and 250 million visitors. Salmon said that if the company discloses the gross merchandise volume, it could help cement the importance to investors of Facebook’s commerce initiatives. Salmon acknowledged that such as disclosure wasn’t likely.</p>\n<p>Investors have been wondering for months about the impact of a change to Apple‘s mobile operating system tech, which finally rolled out this week.</p>\n<p>On Monday, in an update to its iOS operating system,Apple changed its software to ask iPhone and iPad users to opt in to an app’s tracking—a significant departure from the opt out ability buried in the operating system’s settings previously.</p>\n<p>Zuckerberg and Apple (APPL) CEO Tim Cook have sparred over the issue for months. With just over a day’s worth of data, it seems unlikely Facebook will share details about the impact on its users. Previously developers have said it will hurt advertising targeting, and therefore damage ad revenue. It isn’t yet clear exactly what Apple users will do when presented with the choice, or the effectiveness of potential workarounds built by Facebook and others.</p>\n<p>BofA Securities analyst Justin Post wrote that he expects a “modest, low-single digit” impact on advertising spending on the platform since Facebook has had “ample time to prepare and develop workarounds.”</p>\n<p>Facebook finance chief David Wehner has discussed the potential impact on the business in past conference calls, and investors should pay close attention to any updates offered Wednesday. It’s worth noting that Zuckerberg took a less cautious tone in March, saying that he was confident the company will handle the situation. There is also the potential it could positively benefit the company, the CEO said.</p>\n<p>Of the analysts that cover Facebook, 49 rate the stock Buy, six have a Hold, and three rate it a Sell. The average target price is $339, which implies an upside of 12%.</p>\n<p>Barron’s took a positive view of Facebook stock earlier this month. Shares have climbed 2% since the cover story in the April 5 issue, as the S&P 500 index rose 4.1%.

Facebook (FB) stands to make even more money than Snap. Analysts expect a net profit of nearly $7 billion, which amounts to $2.61 a share, when Facebook reports results after the closing bell Wednesday.\nIncluding sales of its virtual reality hardware, and other devices—which are expected contribute to the estimated $452 million to the “Other” revenue segment—Facebook revenue is expected to rise roughly 33% to $23.71 billion. The ad business will contribute revenue of $23.29 billion.\nFacebook is expected to grow its user base by tens of millions as well. Analysts forecast its daily member count will rise to 1.87 billion, and monthly user base will top 2.83 billion. Its monthly user base is expected to reach almost 3 billion (2.99 billion) by the end of the year.\nBeyond advertising, BMO Capital Markets analyst Daniel Salmon wrote in a research note that commerce and shopping are becoming more important for Facebook’s success.\nIn March, Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg said there were one million Facebook Shops, and 250 million visitors. Salmon said that if the company discloses the gross merchandise volume, it could help cement the importance to investors of Facebook’s commerce initiatives. Salmon acknowledged that such as disclosure wasn’t likely.\nInvestors have been wondering for months about the impact of a change to Apple‘s mobile operating system tech, which finally rolled out this week.\nOn Monday, in an update to its iOS operating system,Apple changed its software to ask iPhone and iPad users to opt in to an app’s tracking—a significant departure from the opt out ability buried in the operating system’s settings previously.\nZuckerberg and Apple (APPL) CEO Tim Cook have sparred over the issue for months. With just over a day’s worth of data, it seems unlikely Facebook will share details about the impact on its users. Previously developers have said it will hurt advertising targeting, and therefore damage ad revenue. It isn’t yet clear exactly what Apple users will do when presented with the choice, or the effectiveness of potential workarounds built by Facebook and others.\nBofA Securities analyst Justin Post wrote that he expects a “modest, low-single digit” impact on advertising spending on the platform since Facebook has had “ample time to prepare and develop workarounds.”\nFacebook finance chief David Wehner has discussed the potential impact on the business in past conference calls, and investors should pay close attention to any updates offered Wednesday. It’s worth noting that Zuckerberg took a less cautious tone in March, saying that he was confident the company will handle the situation. There is also the potential it could positively benefit the company, the CEO said.\nOf the analysts that cover Facebook, 49 rate the stock Buy, six have a Hold, and three rate it a Sell. The average target price is $339, which implies an upside of 12%.\nBarron’s took a positive view of Facebook stock earlier this month. Shares have climbed 2% since the cover story in the April 5 issue, as the S&P 500 index rose 4.1%. Facebook gained 0.7% to $305.02 in Tuesday afternoon trading.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":417,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":372638020,"gmtCreate":1619197318460,"gmtModify":1704721208144,"author":{"id":"3577253367844943","authorId":"3577253367844943","name":"MoneyMenon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a70761ae1345ccdbf44282a236a2414e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577253367844943","authorIdStr":"3577253367844943"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Amazing","listText":"Amazing","text":"Amazing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/372638020","repostId":"1129095305","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129095305","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619191066,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1129095305?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-23 23:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"SoftBank SPAC in talks about $2bn merger with location start-up Mapbox","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129095305","media":"Sky News","summary":"A New York-listed blank cheque company set up by SoftBank is in merger talks with Washington-based M","content":"<p>A New York-listed blank cheque company set up by SoftBank is in merger talks with Washington-based Mapbox, Sky News learns.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/667ca3f64b0a88847ecea6eeb2ee7eb1\" tg-width=\"2048\" tg-height=\"1152\"><span>SoftBank chief executive Masayoshi Son</span></p>\n<p>A ‘blank cheque’ company set up by the Japanese technology giant SoftBank is in talks to merge with a start-up which competes with the likes of Google Maps in the provision of sophisticated location data services.</p>\n<p>Sky News has learnt that Mapbox is in detailed negotiations to go public through a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) - the latest in a torrent of technology businesses to list on New York exchanges through such a route in recent months.</p>\n<p>A US banking source said on Friday that the discussions between MapBox and SVF Investment Corp. 3 were at an advanced stage, but cautioned that a definitive transaction could still fall apart.</p>\n<p>Investment banks including Cantor Fitzgerald, Citi, Deutsche Bank, JP Morgan and UBS are all understood to be involved in the deal.</p>\n<p>Although Mapbox would be far from unusual in choosing a SPAC to launch its tenure as a publicly traded company, the transaction would be unusual in that SoftBank is already a shareholder in the company through its vast Vision Fund.</p>\n<p>Mapbox, which was founded in 2010, announced in 2017 that SoftBank had led a $164m Series C funding round without disclosing its valuation.</p>\n<p>It was unclear on Friday how much new capital the merger would involve through a component of the deal known as a PIPE - private investment in public equity.</p>","source":"lsy1619191032898","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Some estimates implied that Tesla would take a lion's share of the EV market despite the rapid increase in the number of competitors.</p>\n<p>By 2025, Tesla not only has to contend with pure-play EV-makers. It will also face new entrants such as Apple Inc. (AAPL) as well as Chinese smartphone giants Huawei and Xiaomi Corporation (OTC:XIACF)(OTCPK:XIACY). More traditional automakers will also be producing electric vehicles, even as they continue to churn out internal combustion engine-based cars.</p>\n<p>Even if the demand side is plausible, it would mean Tesla, Inc. needs to build many more factories. Given the effusive praise we have heard from Elon Musk regarding the speed of factory construction and on China in general, we could expect additional new plants to be cited in the populous country. That could add more geopolitical risks to the stock, as SA author John Engle argued.</p>\n<p>Then again, as many readers on Seeking Alpha, analysts, and Cathie Wood have postulated, Tesla's true potential lies in a future rollout of an autonomous ride-hailing fleet. Consequently, Tesla's revenue is projected to rise from $31.54 billion in 2020 to a whopping $388.52 billion on a consensus basis in 2030. That would bring the price-to-sales ratio to a mere 1.84 times on a forward basis.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fac352f9c2ac9bac0412ed076c27c75a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"368\"><span>Source: Seeking Alpha Premium</span></p>\n<p>If Tesla did not disappoint the most bullish of the optimists forecasting its revenue to hit $600.7 billion in 2030, its P/S ratio would drop even lower to 1.19 times! You might say, all that sales are wonderful but what does their profitability look like? Well, the analysts believe TSLA would make boatloads of money. The consensus EPS estimate for 2030 is $33.48, a massive jump from the $0.64 it achieved in 2020. If the 2030 EPS estimate is realized, those earnings at today's price would reflect a ratio of 22.2 times, which could be seen as incredibly low.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7650450aa6230d6585a502b571ee3652\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"278\"><span>Source: Seeking Alpha Premium</span></p>\n<p>With EV sales projected by industry consultancy Canalys to remain below 50 percent of the total car sales by 2030, there remains significant growth potential for Tesla to increase its revenue. As such, assuming the analysts are correct, the share price of TSLA will not stay at the present level for the P/S ratio to be just 1.84 times and the P/E ratio at 22.2 times, the share price of TSLA would rise further than where it stands today.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0cd810d4171606b50d186b8d9bf10bf5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"479\"></p>\n<p>Tesla stock split history: What was Tesla's stock price before the recent split?</p>\n<p>In other words, Tesla's share price would continue to rise over the next five to ten years. With that in mind, the question is, will TSLA split again? Before discussing that, let's review Tesla's previous split.</p>\n<p>On August 11, 2020, Tesla announced, after the market closed, that its board approved a five-for-one split of shares to \"make stock ownership more accessible to employees and investors.\" This marked Tesla's first-ever split announcement. The stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c1b22a860341fe3bf36996d737680ddb\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"485\"></p>\n<p><b>How did Tesla's most recent stock split affect share prices?</b></p>\n<p>Interestingly, after the split was affected, Tesla stock lost much of the August gains in just a few trading sessions in early September. The share price decline was speculated by some to be due to shareholders paring their holdings since the split had resulted in them holding more TSLA shares. This seems logical as the purpose of the split was to accord shareholders with greater \"liquidity\" over their TSLA holding.</p>\n<p>However, the weakness in Tesla's share price was more likely attributable to a capital-raising exercise announced pre-market on September 1, 2020. Although only up to $5 billion worth of shares representing just over 1 percent of Tesla's market cap were to be sold, investors were probably looking for a trigger to take profit considering that TSLA was running in overbought territory for more than two weeks, according to the relative strength index [RSI] momentum indicator at that time.</p>\n<p>TSLA's strong run upwards had also led to the stock becoming \"overweight\" on many shareholders' portfolios. Ironically, that meant investors, whether individuals or fund managers had to reduce their Tesla holdings to avoid concentration risk. For funds with concentration guidelines or rules, it's not even a choice but a mandatory reduction exercise once the Tesla position became outsized.</p>\n<p>To make matters worse, Tesla stock was subsequently dragged down further into correction territory amid a sell-off by investors of tech favorites and \"all things frothy.\" The share price recovered some grounds quickly but the stock stagnated for a few months thereafter before a powerful wave of EV hypeswept TSLA up again to new heights.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/085a34d7256fb764f0652d6223057202\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"267\"><span>Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p><b>When will Tesla stock split again?</b></p>\n<p>Although Tesla's share price has pulled back from the peak earlier in the year, it remains much higher than the post-split level last year. At $744.12 at the time of writing, TSLA is 49 percent higher than the $498.32 close on August 31, 2020, the day of the stock split.</p>\n<p>If the past is any reference, Tesla executives did the stock split when the share price was in quadruple-digit. TSLA will need to rise more than 34 percent for that to happen again. As I opined earlier, Tesla stock appears to be poised for further upside. I believe it's more of a question of when, not if, will TSLA hit above $1,000 per share.</p>\n<p>Nevertheless, even in the current investing environment where there are platforms allowing the trading of fractional shares, there are still benefits for stocks with smaller prices. One obvious advantage is the impact on psychology, as the mind interprets low prices as \"cheaply valued\" and having room to head north.</p>\n<p>The leadership at Apple must be thinking the same as the folks at Tesla when the company executed its stock split around the same time as the EV giant last August. The share price appreciation from pre-announcement to post-stock split date was less spectacular compared to Tesla but still a hefty 41 percent.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/46bd0bed00b03ba1d738fd84c9dfb0dc\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"483\"></p>\n<p>Considering that Apple announced a stock split when the share price was much lower at $384.76, it goes to show there's value in considering a split in the stock even without the share price hitting quadruple-digit. Furthermore, AAPL has done this four times before - in 1987, 2000, 2005, and 2014 - when the share prices were all below $1,000. In 1987 and 2005, the stock was even trading at the sub-$100 level when the company did the split.</p>\n<p>Jim Cramer was quoted as saying during an interview last year that Tim Cook explained the 2020 stock split to him, telling him that he wanted \"more people in the stock.\" I suppose that's what Bill Gates and his team thought when the software giant performed eight stock splits from the listing of Microsoft (MSFT) until 1999 as MSFT climbed exponentially during the period. Elon Musk and Tim Cook are the odd couple but I believe the former would agree on having \"more people\" in TSLA stock.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/44957db620e86907bb72e9691bc726e6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"250\"><span>Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p><b>Should you buy Tesla now or wait for a split?</b></p>\n<p>Video-streaming leader Netflix (NFLX) announced a seven-for-one stock split in 2015 when its share was around $700 pre-split. NFLX went on to do very well though it's very much due to its business success than a simple cosmetic stock split exercise. The point of bringing this up is that Tesla's share price is around where Netflix's share price was when the split was completed.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f3cbb0c9bd178401bc6cc863a0934af2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"271\"><span>Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p>Although Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) and Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL)(GOOG) are the odd tech companies trading at quadruple-digit levels, most others are trading in the triple-digit or smaller. With the favorable experience from the previous stock split, Tesla might not want to wait for the share price to hit quadruple-digit again before contemplating another split.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, there is existing literature that reveals a strong correlation between stock splits and \"outstanding stock price performance\", giving Tesla the impetus to do so. Another potential trigger point for Elon Musk to announce a stock split could be when TSLA hit $840 per share. He would be able to claim that the company would do a two-for-one split so that the share price becomes $420 post-split.</p>\n<p>Of course, the share price wouldn't stay flat from the announcement date until the effective date.

Some estimates implied that Tesla would take a lion's share of the EV market despite the rapid increase in the number of competitors.\nBy 2025, Tesla not only has to contend with pure-play EV-makers. It will also face new entrants such as Apple Inc. (AAPL) as well as Chinese smartphone giants Huawei and Xiaomi Corporation (OTC:XIACF)(OTCPK:XIACY). More traditional automakers will also be producing electric vehicles, even as they continue to churn out internal combustion engine-based cars.\nEven if the demand side is plausible, it would mean Tesla, Inc. needs to build many more factories. Given the effusive praise we have heard from Elon Musk regarding the speed of factory construction and on China in general, we could expect additional new plants to be cited in the populous country. That could add more geopolitical risks to the stock, as SA author John Engle argued.\nThen again, as many readers on Seeking Alpha, analysts, and Cathie Wood have postulated, Tesla's true potential lies in a future rollout of an autonomous ride-hailing fleet. Consequently, Tesla's revenue is projected to rise from $31.54 billion in 2020 to a whopping $388.52 billion on a consensus basis in 2030. That would bring the price-to-sales ratio to a mere 1.84 times on a forward basis.\nSource: Seeking Alpha Premium\nIf Tesla did not disappoint the most bullish of the optimists forecasting its revenue to hit $600.7 billion in 2030, its P/S ratio would drop even lower to 1.19 times! You might say, all that sales are wonderful but what does their profitability look like? Well, the analysts believe TSLA would make boatloads of money. The consensus EPS estimate for 2030 is $33.48, a massive jump from the $0.64 it achieved in 2020. If the 2030 EPS estimate is realized, those earnings at today's price would reflect a ratio of 22.2 times, which could be seen as incredibly low.\nSource: Seeking Alpha Premium\nWith EV sales projected by industry consultancy Canalys to remain below 50 percent of the total car sales by 2030, there remains significant growth potential for Tesla to increase its revenue. As such, assuming the analysts are correct, the share price of TSLA will not stay at the present level for the P/S ratio to be just 1.84 times and the P/E ratio at 22.2 times, the share price of TSLA would rise further than where it stands today.\n\nTesla stock split history: What was Tesla's stock price before the recent split?\nIn other words, Tesla's share price would continue to rise over the next five to ten years. With that in mind, the question is, will TSLA split again? Before discussing that, let's review Tesla's previous split.\nOn August 11, 2020, Tesla announced, after the market closed, that its board approved a five-for-one split of shares to \"make stock ownership more accessible to employees and investors.\" This marked Tesla's first-ever split announcement. The stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.\n\nHow did Tesla's most recent stock split affect share prices?\nInterestingly, after the split was affected, Tesla stock lost much of the August gains in just a few trading sessions in early September. The share price decline was speculated by some to be due to shareholders paring their holdings since the split had resulted in them holding more TSLA shares. This seems logical as the purpose of the split was to accord shareholders with greater \"liquidity\" over their TSLA holding.\nHowever, the weakness in Tesla's share price was more likely attributable to a capital-raising exercise announced pre-market on September 1, 2020. Although only up to $5 billion worth of shares representing just over 1 percent of Tesla's market cap were to be sold, investors were probably looking for a trigger to take profit considering that TSLA was running in overbought territory for more than two weeks, according to the relative strength index [RSI] momentum indicator at that time.\nTSLA's strong run upwards had also led to the stock becoming \"overweight\" on many shareholders' portfolios. Ironically, that meant investors, whether individuals or fund managers had to reduce their Tesla holdings to avoid concentration risk. For funds with concentration guidelines or rules, it's not even a choice but a mandatory reduction exercise once the Tesla position became outsized.\nTo make matters worse, Tesla stock was subsequently dragged down further into correction territory amid a sell-off by investors of tech favorites and \"all things frothy.\" The share price recovered some grounds quickly but the stock stagnated for a few months thereafter before a powerful wave of EV hypeswept TSLA up again to new heights.\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nWhen will Tesla stock split again?\nAlthough Tesla's share price has pulled back from the peak earlier in the year, it remains much higher than the post-split level last year. At $744.12 at the time of writing, TSLA is 49 percent higher than the $498.32 close on August 31, 2020, the day of the stock split.\nIf the past is any reference, Tesla executives did the stock split when the share price was in quadruple-digit. TSLA will need to rise more than 34 percent for that to happen again. As I opined earlier, Tesla stock appears to be poised for further upside. I believe it's more of a question of when, not if, will TSLA hit above $1,000 per share.\nNevertheless, even in the current investing environment where there are platforms allowing the trading of fractional shares, there are still benefits for stocks with smaller prices. One obvious advantage is the impact on psychology, as the mind interprets low prices as \"cheaply valued\" and having room to head north.\nThe leadership at Apple must be thinking the same as the folks at Tesla when the company executed its stock split around the same time as the EV giant last August. The share price appreciation from pre-announcement to post-stock split date was less spectacular compared to Tesla but still a hefty 41 percent.\n\nConsidering that Apple announced a stock split when the share price was much lower at $384.76, it goes to show there's value in considering a split in the stock even without the share price hitting quadruple-digit. Furthermore, AAPL has done this four times before - in 1987, 2000, 2005, and 2014 - when the share prices were all below $1,000. In 1987 and 2005, the stock was even trading at the sub-$100 level when the company did the split.\nJim Cramer was quoted as saying during an interview last year that Tim Cook explained the 2020 stock split to him, telling him that he wanted \"more people in the stock.\" I suppose that's what Bill Gates and his team thought when the software giant performed eight stock splits from the listing of Microsoft (MSFT) until 1999 as MSFT climbed exponentially during the period. Elon Musk and Tim Cook are the odd couple but I believe the former would agree on having \"more people\" in TSLA stock.\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nShould you buy Tesla now or wait for a split?\nVideo-streaming leader Netflix (NFLX) announced a seven-for-one stock split in 2015 when its share was around $700 pre-split. NFLX went on to do very well though it's very much due to its business success than a simple cosmetic stock split exercise. The point of bringing this up is that Tesla's share price is around where Netflix's share price was when the split was completed.\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nAlthough Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) and Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL)(GOOG) are the odd tech companies trading at quadruple-digit levels, most others are trading in the triple-digit or smaller. With the favorable experience from the previous stock split, Tesla might not want to wait for the share price to hit quadruple-digit again before contemplating another split.\nFurthermore, there is existing literature that reveals a strong correlation between stock splits and \"outstanding stock price performance\", giving Tesla the impetus to do so. Another potential trigger point for Elon Musk to announce a stock split could be when TSLA hit $840 per share. He would be able to claim that the company would do a two-for-one split so that the share price becomes $420 post-split.\nOf course, the share price wouldn't stay flat from the announcement date until the effective date. Nonetheless, the media would have gone into overdrive covering the announcement and speculating about the number's link to weed as well as Elon's past brush with the securities law on his previous take-Tesla-private-at-$420 claim. This would generate plenty of free publicity for the company.\nHowever, investors should not hang around for a stock split if they are intending to own shares in Tesla. It may not happen and the share price could still zoom upwards on speculations, improving sentiment, or due to business fundamentals.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":118,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":378924240,"gmtCreate":1618993689880,"gmtModify":1704717998762,"author":{"id":"3577253367844943","authorId":"3577253367844943","name":"MoneyMenon","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a70761ae1345ccdbf44282a236a2414e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577253367844943","authorIdStr":"3577253367844943"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Amazing!
