Itās why weāre introducing new store commerce models and policies.ā</p>\n<p>The move is certain to rankle executives at both Apple and Google, which are facing antitrust investigations into their app store practices.</p>\n<p>Apple is awaiting a ruling in an antitrust case brought by Epic Games, in which the āFortniteā developer accused the iPhone maker of abusing its market power over the App Store by forcing developers to use its own payment system and fork over the associated fees.</p>\n<p>Google, meanwhile, faces a similar lawsuit from Epic and is expected to get slapped with a lawsuit from a collection of state attorneys general for its app store policies.</p>\n<h3><b>Microsoft has been criticizing Appleās policies</b></h3>\n<p>This isnāt the first time Microsoft has called out its rivals and their app stores. The company has criticized Appleās policies in the past, specifically Appleās policy of taking a share of revenue from Microsoft apps purchased through the Apple App Store.</p>\n<p>More recently, Microsoft sparred with Apple over its desire to get its xCloud cloud gaming platform onto the iPhone via a native app. Apple has pushed back, hampering Microsoftās cloud gaming ambitions and forcing it to make users rely on a browser-style app.</p>\n<p>That led Microsoft to meet and lodge a complaint with members of the House Antitrust Subcommittee during the bodyās investigation into Apple, Google, Amazon, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a>.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d92ddac610658f60945c72fc4da23210\" tg-width=\"1024\" tg-height=\"640\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Microsoft has debuted the latest version of its Windows operating system: Windows 11. (Image: Microsoft)Microsoft</p>\n<p>Microsoft also took aim at Apple in the iPhone makerās battle with āFortniteā developer Epic Games. In that instance, Microsoft filed a statement of support for Epic in its fight to prevent Apple withholding iOS support for Epicās Unreal Engine.</p>\n<p>Epic initially sued Apple and Google after the two companies removed āForniteā from their respective app stores. Apple and Google argue that Epic implemented an update that added a separate payment system allowing consumers to circumvent Apple or Googleās payment services.

Itās why weāre introducing new store commerce models and policies.ā\nThe move is certain to rankle executives at both Apple and Google, which are facing antitrust investigations into their app store practices.\nApple is awaiting a ruling in an antitrust case brought by Epic Games, in which the āFortniteā developer accused the iPhone maker of abusing its market power over the App Store by forcing developers to use its own payment system and fork over the associated fees.\nGoogle, meanwhile, faces a similar lawsuit from Epic and is expected to get slapped with a lawsuit from a collection of state attorneys general for its app store policies.\nMicrosoft has been criticizing Appleās policies\nThis isnāt the first time Microsoft has called out its rivals and their app stores. The company has criticized Appleās policies in the past, specifically Appleās policy of taking a share of revenue from Microsoft apps purchased through the Apple App Store.\nMore recently, Microsoft sparred with Apple over its desire to get its xCloud cloud gaming platform onto the iPhone via a native app. Apple has pushed back, hampering Microsoftās cloud gaming ambitions and forcing it to make users rely on a browser-style app.\nThat led Microsoft to meet and lodge a complaint with members of the House Antitrust Subcommittee during the bodyās investigation into Apple, Google, Amazon, and Facebook.\nMicrosoft has debuted the latest version of its Windows operating system: Windows 11. (Image: Microsoft)Microsoft\nMicrosoft also took aim at Apple in the iPhone makerās battle with āFortniteā developer Epic Games. In that instance, Microsoft filed a statement of support for Epic in its fight to prevent Apple withholding iOS support for Epicās Unreal Engine.\nEpic initially sued Apple and Google after the two companies removed āForniteā from their respective app stores. Apple and Google argue that Epic implemented an update that added a separate payment system allowing consumers to circumvent Apple or Googleās payment services. That effectively cut out Apple and Googleās 30% app store fees.\nEpicās fight with Apple wrapped up earlier this month and a ruling is expected before the end of the summer.\nMicrosoft could win over developers\nWith its decision to allow developers to use their own payment systems, Microsoft is sending a signal to the global developer community that it is willing to play by their rules. That could help the company as it seeks to build out its app store and drive more business for Windows.\nWhile Microsoft was caught flat-footed in the smartphone wars, its moves with the Windows 11 Microsoft Store could give it the kind of boost from developers that it needs to begin taking market share from Apple and Google in the fight for app store supremacy. Itās now up to Apple and Google to respond.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":631,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121538678,"gmtCreate":1624472562994,"gmtModify":1703837814134,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"All aboard the meme express!","listText":"All aboard the meme express!","text":"All aboard the meme express!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121538678","repostId":"1159107044","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1159107044","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624459161,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1159107044?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 22:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Goldman Sachs Briefly Builds Stake in Meme Stock Orphazyme","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1159107044","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Goldman Sachs Group Inc. briefly built, then sold a stake in Denmarkās first meme stock, according t","content":"<p>Goldman Sachs Group Inc. briefly built, then sold a stake in Denmarkās first meme stock, according to a regulatory filing.</p>\n<p>Orphazyme A/S, a small Danish biotech firm,saidon Wednesday the Wall Street firm had a stake that exceeded the 5% threshold that triggers a filing, and then quickly reduced its holding to below that level last week.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/87c5b53a8732ab8cba47ac53ffda357d\" tg-width=\"558\" tg-height=\"313\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Goldmanās holding was 5.58% as of June 16, and less then 5% a day later.

Furthermore, we will discuss some of the key risks faced by the company.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Investment Thesis</b></p>\n<p>Amazon (AMZN) is delivering robust revenue and profitability growth in 2021 on top of the stellar numbers registered during the pandemic in 2020. However, investors watching Amazon's stock over the last 12 months or so would be led to think otherwise. After a big move last year, the stock has virtually frozen since mid 2020. In times where meme stock investors are making a lot of tendies (profits), Amazon's near-term underperformance has been disappointing for many long-term investors. However, things could look a lot different in the next 6-12 months. Amazon is set to scale new highs, and I will outline why that's the case in this article.</p>\n<p>The primary driver of a company's price is free cash flow, and Amazon is poised to deliver a lot more of it. Amazon's higher-margin businesses, i.e., Amazon Web Services and Digital Ads (hidden in the \"Other\" segment in financial statements), are seeing accelerated growth. Furthermore, Amazon's e-commerce business also is delivering huge amounts of free cash flow at scale. Over the last 12 months, Amazon garnered $67B of cash from operations, which represents a 69% year-over-year jump. With business showing no signs of slowing down in the post-pandemic world and impending reduction in pandemic costs (billions of dollars per quarter), Amazon could very well deliver a big jump in free cash flow this year. As you may know, Amazon's balance sheet already is a fortress. However, the cash pile is getting so large that initiation of a capital return program could become imperative in the next three to four years.</p>\n<p>After evaluating Amazon using the LASV model, I deduced that the company is worth ~$5,900 per share. This projection means that Amazon is massively undervalued at the moment. Over the last 12 months, Amazon's trading multiples have shrunk back to normalized levels and future growth in revenue and free cash flow are very likely to result in higher stock prices.</p>\n<p><b>The Tale Of A Year-Long Consolidation</b></p>\n<p>At BTM, we own Amazon since it was at around $1,750. However, after a big rally in 2020, we rated the stock a modest buy for quite some time. And so, we are not really surprised by the year-long consolidation.</p>\n<p>Here's our extensive research work on Amazon:</p>\n<ol>\n <li>Retail Ecosystem -Amazon: Here Is What The Retail Segment Is Worth</li>\n <li>Amazon Web Services -Amazon: Here's What You Should Be Monitoring</li>\n <li>Digital Ads -Amazon: The 'Other' Segment May Be Worth More Than AWS</li>\n</ol>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/86ef0b4ba9477ffe4662dd02b4a4fe56\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"379\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: YCharts</p>\n<p>Now, our modest buy ratings from last year have been justified. Amazon has underperformed the S&P 500 index by around 6% in the previous 12-month period. With continued business momentum and stagnant stock price, Amazon's trading multiples have been falling down rapidly since August-2020.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/450a291ce832606dc4568f5b000a234b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"379\"></p>\n<p>Source: YCharts</p>\n<p>After rapid normalization in trading multiples due to excellent financial performance, we upgraded the stock at BTM after the latest quarterly report. Although Amazon's underperformance over the last year has been demoralizing for long-term investors, I believe this is the right time to get onboard before a fresh rally ensues in the stock.</p>\n<p><b>Why Is Amazon Ready To Move Higher?</b></p>\n<p>In Q1 2021, Amazon recorded net sales of $108B (up +44% y/y) on the back of swift acceleration in AWS and Ad revenues (\"Other\" segment). Furthermore, we're seeing continued momentum in Amazon's e-commerce and streaming businesses. The following data serves as evidence for the same:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/484d6ffb34aa711d2460f56878a19b30\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"277\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source:Amazon Q1 2021 Earnings Release</p>\n<p>With acceleration in higher-margin revenue lines, Amazon's operating margin (profitability) is improving rapidly. In the latest quarter, Amazon's TTM operating margins reached an all-time high of 6.63%. At this point, I recommend you read our research coverage on Amazon (shared earlier in this article) to understand the dynamics at play in different business lines at the company.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f684da9379808e65eb00bac24f21bd5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"379\"></p>\n<p>Source: YCharts</p>\n<p>As you may already know, Amazon is an emerging operating leverage story. In Q1, Amazon's operating income increased by ~122% y/y to come in at $8.865B (rapid q/q acceleration). Over the next 12 months, Amazon would likely deliver an operating income of ~$40-50B. This massive jump in operating income will translate into greater amounts of free cash flow (and, by extension, a higher share price).</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/de1ec1d647bed5d59e91bdaa0535d25e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"420\"></p>\n<p>Source: Amazon Q1 2021 Earnings Release</p>\n<p>Since 2018, Amazon has seen a big jump in Cash from Operations, which has gone up ~3.5x from ~$20B per year to ~$70B per year in 2021. Amazon, being Amazon, has invested massive amounts of this cash back into its business to drive future revenue growth, resulting in lower levels of free cash flow ($26.5B in 2020). Therefore, I believe Amazon's true free cash flow is much higher than its reported numbers.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4f1ccee71f8675c6cabd16cf4e08733d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"379\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: YCharts</p>\n<p>The massive amounts of cash being generated by Amazon are starting to pile up on the balance sheet (which had roughly $34B of cash at the end of last quarter). Further margin expansion is likely to create even more free cash flow over coming quarters and years, and this cash pile will only grow bigger. At some point in the near future, Amazon will need to start returning capital to shareholders through buybacks or dividends. My estimate is that Amazon would start a capital return program by 2025, but I will discuss this prediction in a separate note in the future.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9c041f8732f0e9557d632f4bc3444b54\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"379\"></p>\n<p>Source: YCharts</p>\n<p>Amazon is expected to record ~$500B in annual sales in 2021 and I expect Amazon to take over the title of the \"largest company by sales\" in 2022. In my opinion, Amazon still has massive growth left in its armory. According to consensus analyst estimates on Seeking Alpha, Amazon would likely be raking in revenue of $1.5T per year by 2030.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c6b99e2dd54b3885cd7542d213be0429\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"635\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source:Seeking Alpha</p>\n<p>I believe these numbers are achievable. In fact, they're very likely to materialize over the next decade. AWS, Digital Ads, and Amazon Care (in-house healthcare offering (at least for now)) are likely to be the primary drivers of future free cash flow for the company. Now, let's estimate the fair value and expected returns for Amazon.</p>\n<p><b>Fair Value And Expected Returns</b></p>\n<p>To determine Amazon's fair value, we will employ our proprietary valuation model. Here's what it entails:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><p>In step 1, we use a traditional DCF model with free cash flow discounted by our (shareholders) cost of capital.</p></li>\n <li><p>In step 2, the model accounts for the effects of the change in shares outstanding (buybacks/dilutions).</p></li>\n <li><p>In step 3, we normalize valuation for future growth prospects at the end of the 10 years. Then, using today's share price and the projected share price at the end of 10 years, we arrive at a CAGR. If this beats the market by enough of a margin, we invest. If not, we wait for a better entry point.</p></li>\n</ul>\n<p>With massive amounts of cash flow being generated from operations, Amazon could soon find itself with the good problem of having too much cash on its balance sheet. At some point over the next decade, Amazon will need to start returning capital to shareholders (via buybacks or dividends). I will share my analysis as to when that would happen some other time. However, for now, we will build our valuation without accounting for future capital return programs.</p>\n<p><b>Assumptions:</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/82136b2cd82ebf242b95eb6d17e2f4b1\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"538\"></p>\n<p>Here are the results:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/50a3cb8964e421080c530abc1b3d62bf\" tg-width=\"603\" tg-height=\"729\">Source: L.A. Stevens Valuation Model</p>\n<p>As per my estimation, Amazon is worth ~$5,900 per share. The stock is trading at ~$3,400, which means Amazon has a near-term upside of +73.5% to its fair value. By utilizing conservative assumptions, we have ensured that our valuation has an ample margin of safety built into it.</p>\n<p>To calculate the total expected return, we simply grow the above free cash flow per share at our conservative growth rate, then assign a conservative multiple, i.e., 30x, to it for year 10. This creates a conservative intrinsic value projection by which we determine when and where to deploy our capital.</p>\n<p>Here are the results:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1fb09f1799ac5ea2741e204766b4df3c\" tg-width=\"605\" tg-height=\"429\">Source: L.A. Stevens Valuation Model</p>\n<p>As you can see above, Amazon's stock price could grow from ~$3,400 to ~$18,750 at a CAGR of ~18.6% in the next 10 years. Since we haven't considered future buybacks and dividends in today's valuation, there's a good chance that Amazon will outperform our expected return projections. My investment hurdle rate is 15%, and since Amazon's expected return is above this level, I rate Amazon a buy.</p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Amazon's visionary founder, Jeff Bezos, is set to step down as Amazon CEO and transition to the role of Executive Chairman of the Board. His replacement is AWS CEO Andy Jassy, who is a very capable business leader, as evidenced by AWS's rise from zero to $50 billion annual revenue business in just 15 years. However, an executive leadership change of this magnitude carries several risks, and we will be keeping a keen eye on Andy over the next few earning calls to understand his vision for Amazon.</li>\n <li>Furthermore, the leadership transition comes at a time when Amazon is facing rising pressure from regulators and lawmakers. In the recent big tech antitrust hearing, most lawmakers came away with the conclusion that Amazon is anti competitive (along with Facebook (FB), Alphabet (GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL), and Apple (AAPL)). With the threat of a DOJ investigation looming large, investors might be nervous about potential outcomes. Any monetary fine would simply be the cost of doing business. For years, Amazon's FCF machine - AWS - has supported the aggressive expansion (anti-competitive behavior) of its retail ecosystem. Therefore, a potential (government-enforced) break up of Amazon is viewed by many as a massive risk for the company. However, Amazon's retail ecosystem is self sustainable now (generates positive FCF), and any breakup could unlock value for shareholders. We shared our views on this topic in thisnote.</li>\n <li>Since Amazon's Ads business is not reliant on personal information for Ad targeting (unlike Facebook and Alphabet), we do not see any major headwinds for this still-emerging, yet crucial business line.</li>\n <li>In the near term, Amazon's e-commerce business could come under pressure as life returns to a new normal in the post-pandemic world. The massive jump in e-commerce revenue could reverse somewhat in upcoming quarters as people regain mobility.</li>\n <li>For the first time in over 15 years, Amazon lost market share to Shopify (SHOP) in 2020. This is a new challenge for Amazon, and the digitization efforts from retail giants like Walmart (WMT) and Target (TGT) are likely to result in greater competition for Amazon.</li>\n <li>Also, Microsoft's Azure (MSFT) is growing faster than AWS (albeit from a lower revenue base). Under Satya Nadella's leadership, Microsoft has emerged as a force to be reckoned with in the cloud services industry. If AWS fails to retain its market leadership position, Amazon could fall short of our projections.</li>\n <li>Amazon's Digital Ads business is likely to be critical to future success for the company. With the threat of potential regulations hanging over the digital ad industry, the numbers projected for this line of business may not materialize.</li>\n <li>The healthcare offering being built at Amazon could be the next big thing (business) to emerge from the company (like AWS, Prime Video, etc.). However, healthcare is a very complicated industry, and pure-plays like Teladoc have a much better chance of winning this market opportunity. Since we are well aware of Amazon's innovation capabilities, I wouldn't necessarily attribute this spending to be an unwarranted risk.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Concluding Thoughts</b></p>\n<p>Amazon's higher-margin businesses are firing on all cylinders (accelerating growth), and while the stock has remained in a tight channel for almost a year now, the second half of 2021 could bring a fresh leg higher.

Furthermore, we will discuss some of the key risks faced by the company.\n\nInvestment Thesis\nAmazon (AMZN) is delivering robust revenue and profitability growth in 2021 on top of the stellar numbers registered during the pandemic in 2020. However, investors watching Amazon's stock over the last 12 months or so would be led to think otherwise. After a big move last year, the stock has virtually frozen since mid 2020. In times where meme stock investors are making a lot of tendies (profits), Amazon's near-term underperformance has been disappointing for many long-term investors. However, things could look a lot different in the next 6-12 months. Amazon is set to scale new highs, and I will outline why that's the case in this article.\nThe primary driver of a company's price is free cash flow, and Amazon is poised to deliver a lot more of it. Amazon's higher-margin businesses, i.e., Amazon Web Services and Digital Ads (hidden in the \"Other\" segment in financial statements), are seeing accelerated growth. Furthermore, Amazon's e-commerce business also is delivering huge amounts of free cash flow at scale. Over the last 12 months, Amazon garnered $67B of cash from operations, which represents a 69% year-over-year jump. With business showing no signs of slowing down in the post-pandemic world and impending reduction in pandemic costs (billions of dollars per quarter), Amazon could very well deliver a big jump in free cash flow this year. As you may know, Amazon's balance sheet already is a fortress. However, the cash pile is getting so large that initiation of a capital return program could become imperative in the next three to four years.\nAfter evaluating Amazon using the LASV model, I deduced that the company is worth ~$5,900 per share. This projection means that Amazon is massively undervalued at the moment. Over the last 12 months, Amazon's trading multiples have shrunk back to normalized levels and future growth in revenue and free cash flow are very likely to result in higher stock prices.\nThe Tale Of A Year-Long Consolidation\nAt BTM, we own Amazon since it was at around $1,750. However, after a big rally in 2020, we rated the stock a modest buy for quite some time. And so, we are not really surprised by the year-long consolidation.\nHere's our extensive research work on Amazon:\n\nRetail Ecosystem -Amazon: Here Is What The Retail Segment Is Worth\nAmazon Web Services -Amazon: Here's What You Should Be Monitoring\nDigital Ads -Amazon: The 'Other' Segment May Be Worth More Than AWS\n\nSource: YCharts\nNow, our modest buy ratings from last year have been justified. Amazon has underperformed the S&P 500 index by around 6% in the previous 12-month period. With continued business momentum and stagnant stock price, Amazon's trading multiples have been falling down rapidly since August-2020.\n\nSource: YCharts\nAfter rapid normalization in trading multiples due to excellent financial performance, we upgraded the stock at BTM after the latest quarterly report. Although Amazon's underperformance over the last year has been demoralizing for long-term investors, I believe this is the right time to get onboard before a fresh rally ensues in the stock.\nWhy Is Amazon Ready To Move Higher?\nIn Q1 2021, Amazon recorded net sales of $108B (up +44% y/y) on the back of swift acceleration in AWS and Ad revenues (\"Other\" segment). Furthermore, we're seeing continued momentum in Amazon's e-commerce and streaming businesses. The following data serves as evidence for the same:\n\nSource:Amazon Q1 2021 Earnings Release\nWith acceleration in higher-margin revenue lines, Amazon's operating margin (profitability) is improving rapidly. In the latest quarter, Amazon's TTM operating margins reached an all-time high of 6.63%. At this point, I recommend you read our research coverage on Amazon (shared earlier in this article) to understand the dynamics at play in different business lines at the company.\n\nSource: YCharts\nAs you may already know, Amazon is an emerging operating leverage story. In Q1, Amazon's operating income increased by ~122% y/y to come in at $8.865B (rapid q/q acceleration). Over the next 12 months, Amazon would likely deliver an operating income of ~$40-50B. This massive jump in operating income will translate into greater amounts of free cash flow (and, by extension, a higher share price).\n\nSource:Ā Amazon Q1 2021 Earnings Release\nSince 2018, Amazon has seen a big jump in Cash from Operations, which has gone up ~3.5x from ~$20B per year to ~$70B per year in 2021. Amazon, being Amazon, has invested massive amounts of this cash back into its business to drive future revenue growth, resulting in lower levels of free cash flow ($26.5B in 2020). Therefore, I believe Amazon's true free cash flow is much higher than its reported numbers.\nSource: YCharts\nThe massive amounts of cash being generated by Amazon are starting to pile up on the balance sheet (which had roughly $34B of cash at the end of last quarter). Further margin expansion is likely to create even more free cash flow over coming quarters and years, and this cash pile will only grow bigger. At some point in the near future, Amazon will need to start returning capital to shareholders through buybacks or dividends. My estimate is that Amazon would start a capital return program by 2025, but I will discuss this prediction in a separate note in the future.\n\nSource: YCharts\nAmazon is expected to record ~$500B in annual sales in 2021 and I expect Amazon to take over the title of the \"largest company by sales\" in 2022. In my opinion, Amazon still has massive growth left in its armory. According to consensus analyst estimates on Seeking Alpha, Amazon would likely be raking in revenue of $1.5T per year by 2030.\n\nSource:Seeking Alpha\nI believe these numbers are achievable. In fact, they're very likely to materialize over the next decade. AWS, Digital Ads, and Amazon Care (in-house healthcare offering (at least for now)) are likely to be the primary drivers of future free cash flow for the company. Now, let's estimate the fair value and expected returns for Amazon.\nFair Value And Expected Returns\nTo determine Amazon's fair value, we will employ our proprietary valuation model. Here's what it entails:\n\nIn step 1, we use a traditional DCF model with free cash flow discounted by our (shareholders) cost of capital.\nIn step 2, the model accounts for the effects of the change in shares outstanding (buybacks/dilutions).\nIn step 3, we normalize valuation for future growth prospects at the end of the 10 years. Then, using today's share price and the projected share price at the end of 10 years, we arrive at a CAGR. If this beats the market by enough of a margin, we invest. If not, we wait for a better entry point.\n\nWith massive amounts of cash flow being generated from operations, Amazon could soon find itself with the good problem of having too much cash on its balance sheet. At some point over the next decade, Amazon will need to start returning capital to shareholders (via buybacks or dividends). I will share my analysis as to when that would happen some other time. However, for now, we will build our valuation without accounting for future capital return programs.\nAssumptions:\n\nHere are the results:\nSource: L.A. Stevens Valuation Model\nAs per my estimation, Amazon is worth ~$5,900 per share. The stock is trading at ~$3,400, which means Amazon has a near-term upside of +73.5% to its fair value. By utilizing conservative assumptions, we have ensured that our valuation has an ample margin of safety built into it.\nTo calculate the total expected return, we simply grow the above free cash flow per share at our conservative growth rate, then assign a conservative multiple, i.e., 30x, to it for year 10. This creates a conservative intrinsic value projection by which we determine when and where to deploy our capital.\nHere are the results:\nSource: L.A. Stevens Valuation Model\nAs you can see above, Amazon's stock price could grow from ~$3,400 to ~$18,750 at a CAGR of ~18.6% in the next 10 years. Since we haven't considered future buybacks and dividends in today's valuation, there's a good chance that Amazon will outperform our expected return projections. My investment hurdle rate is 15%, and since Amazon's expected return is above this level, I rate Amazon a buy.\nRisks\n\nAmazon's visionary founder, Jeff Bezos, is set to step down as Amazon CEO and transition to the role of Executive Chairman of the Board. His replacement is AWS CEO Andy Jassy, who is a very capable business leader, as evidenced by AWS's rise from zero to $50 billion annual revenue business in just 15 years. However, an executive leadership change of this magnitude carries several risks, and we will be keeping a keen eye on Andy over the next few earning calls to understand his vision for Amazon.\nFurthermore, the leadership transition comes at a time when Amazon is facing rising pressure from regulators and lawmakers. In the recent big tech antitrust hearing, most lawmakers came away with the conclusion that Amazon is anti competitive (along with Facebook (FB), Alphabet (GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL), and Apple (AAPL)). With the threat of a DOJ investigation looming large, investors might be nervous about potential outcomes. Any monetary fine would simply be the cost of doing business. For years, Amazon's FCF machine - AWS - has supported the aggressive expansion (anti-competitive behavior) of its retail ecosystem. Therefore, a potential (government-enforced) break up of Amazon is viewed by many as a massive risk for the company. However, Amazon's retail ecosystem is self sustainable now (generates positive FCF), and any breakup could unlock value for shareholders. We shared our views on this topic in thisnote.\nSince Amazon's Ads business is not reliant on personal information for Ad targeting (unlike Facebook and Alphabet), we do not see any major headwinds for this still-emerging, yet crucial business line.\nIn the near term, Amazon's e-commerce business could come under pressure as life returns to a new normal in the post-pandemic world. The massive jump in e-commerce revenue could reverse somewhat in upcoming quarters as people regain mobility.\nFor the first time in over 15 years, Amazon lost market share to Shopify (SHOP) in 2020. This is a new challenge for Amazon, and the digitization efforts from retail giants like Walmart (WMT) and Target (TGT) are likely to result in greater competition for Amazon.\nAlso, Microsoft's Azure (MSFT) is growing faster than AWS (albeit from a lower revenue base). Under Satya Nadella's leadership, Microsoft has emerged as a force to be reckoned with in the cloud services industry. If AWS fails to retain its market leadership position, Amazon could fall short of our projections.\nAmazon's Digital Ads business is likely to be critical to future success for the company. With the threat of potential regulations hanging over the digital ad industry, the numbers projected for this line of business may not materialize.\nThe healthcare offering being built at Amazon could be the next big thing (business) to emerge from the company (like AWS, Prime Video, etc.). However, healthcare is a very complicated industry, and pure-plays like Teladoc have a much better chance of winning this market opportunity. Since we are well aware of Amazon's innovation capabilities, I wouldn't necessarily attribute this spending to be an unwarranted risk.\n\nConcluding Thoughts\nAmazon's higher-margin businesses are firing on all cylinders (accelerating growth), and while the stock has remained in a tight channel for almost a year now, the second half of 2021 could bring a fresh leg higher. As we saw earlier in this article, Amazon's operating margins are improving steadily due to the rapid growth of higher-margin businesses, i.e., AWS and Digital Ads.\nIn the last 12 months or so, Amazon's stock has been consolidating in a sideways channel. During this time, trading multiples have normalized, and Amazon is now trading at pre-pandemic levels. With robust revenue growth and margin expansion on the horizon, Amazon's stock is set to move higher.\nKey Takeaway: I rate Amazon a buy at $3,400.\nThanks for reading, remember to follow for more, and happy investing!","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":669,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":164267579,"gmtCreate":1624209534091,"gmtModify":1703830694239,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Back the banks ","listText":"Back the banks ","text":"Back the banks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/164267579","repostId":"1158784745","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158784745","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624017454,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1158784745?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-18 19:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Inflation breakout will drive 10-year Treasury yields above 2% in coming months, Wells Fargo predicts","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158784745","media":"cnbc","summary":"Treasury yields may be about to break out.\nEven though yields temporarily fell after this week's Fed","content":"<div>\n<p>Treasury yields may be about to break out.\nEven though yields temporarily fell after this week's Federal Reserve decision on interest rates, Wells Fargo Securities' Michael Schumacher expects the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/18/inflation-breakout-will-soon-drive-10-year-yields-above-2percent-wells-fargo.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

But we do think there's a pretty strong bear case to be made over the next six [to] seven months.\"\nSchumacherattributes the inflation comeback for his forecastā with an emphasis on the next 12 months.\n\"Core PCEwhich the Fed likes to look at is above 3% for the next year. It's an amazing number. We have not seen inflation like that in the U.S. on a sustained basis for a very long time,\" he said. \"This really gets at what the people in the market are focused on: Just how long is that inflation spike going to last? Is it transient? Is it transitory? I don't know. But it's troubling, that's pretty clear.\"\nIn his post-Fed decision research note, Schumacher said the Fed is still coming to terms with the inflation spike. According to Schumacher, the biggest risk facing the bond market and economy is the Fed's potential response to the strong economic comeback. If the Fed gets spooked, it would likely hike rates next year instead of waiting until at least 2023.\nSo far, Schumacher's bond market outlook is on target.\nComing into 2021, Schumacher predicted the10-year yieldwould hit 1.15% to 1.35% by this year's halfway point ā with the caveat it could reach as high as 1.50%. He made the forecast when the yield was below 1% and months before the Covid-19 vaccines were widely available.\nOn Thursday, the 10-year yield closed at 1.51%.

Thatās almost double the 23% return for the real estate sector, which is the second-best sector. The S&P 500 is up nearly 12% this year.\nEnergyās big start to the year means that even if the sector goes nowhere for the rest of 2021, it will still be the best year since 1990 by nearly 10%, according to Bay Crest Partners chief market technician Jonathan Krinsky.\nThe surge in energy stocks comes on the back of a recovery in oil prices, and as investors return to areas of the market that were left out of 2020ā²s rebound from the pandemic lows. The sector was also starting from a low base. In 2020, the group fell 37.3% for its worst performance since inception in 1989.\nKrinsky is among those saying the upside move is overdone, and his call is to sell crude oil and energy stocks broadly. From a technical standpoint, he noted that the $420 to $450 level acted as support ā a floor ā for the group during the last decade. But then during the Covid sell-off, the sector plunged below that key level ā breaking below $200 ā as the pandemic ground economies around the world to a halt.\n\nThe S&P Energy SectorĀ has since recovered and traded as high as $420 on Thursday, inching closer to their prior support level, which now acts as resistance, or where an uptrend could be expected to reverse.\nāOftentimes when you break a very important support like that, once you come back and test it as resistance, itās difficult to exceed that ā at least on the first try,ā Krinsky noted.\nGauging performance from Jan. 1 might seem arbitrary, but he added that the sectorās outperformance is notable from virtually any date. Over the last eight months, the group has returned over 90%, which Krinsky says is more than two times the prior largest such gain over the last three decades.\nāEven on a rolling basis this is somewhat unprecedented,ā he said. His bearish call on the sector also stems from other commodities breaking down, including lumber and copper. The latter is now breaking its uptrend, and Krinsky noted that copper was a leading indicator for the 2020 low, hitting a bottom one month ahead of West Texas Intermediate Crude futures.\nTOP-PERFORMING S&P 500 ENERGY STOCKS THIS YEAR\n\n\n\nTICKER\nCOMPANY\nPRICE\n%CHANGE\nYIELD\nPREVIOUS CLOSE\n\n\n\n\nMRO\nMarathon Oil Corp\n12.83\n-0.4655\n12.83\n12.89\n\n\nFANG\nDiamondback Energy Inc\n86.23\n-0.7596\n86.23\n86.89\n\n\nDVN\nDevon Energy Corp\n27.22\n-1.3411\n27.22\n27.59\n\n\nEOG\nEOG Resources Inc\n80.795\n-0.7798\n80.795\n81.43\n\n\n\nWithin the sector,Marathon Oilhas gained nearly 93% this year, making it the top-performing energy stock in the S&P 500.\nDiamondback Energyrose about 80% year to date, andDevon Energyclimbed more than 70%.OccidentalandEOG Resourcesare up more than 60%.\nAmid the outperformance the group remains unloved by Wall Street as factors ā including environmental, social and corporate governance investing ā prompt investors to shy away from the sector. Bank of America recently noted that the entire sector makes up just 2% of the average long-only portfolio, or less than half the allocation toward Facebook, which sits at 4.2%.\nEnergy still comprises a tiny portion of the S&P 500, but as the sectorās weighting grows, fund managers who shun the space could risk returns.\nMRB Partners on Thursday reiterated its overweight rating on the group, saying the recovery in demand for petroleum products, coupled with ongoing supply constraints, should push oil prices higher, leading to further returns for energy stocks.\nāStrengthening cash flows, leaner cost structures, and better capital discipline position the industry to moderately increase capital returns to shareholders,ā strategists led by Salvatore Ruscitti wrote in a note to clients. āRelative performance will benefit from the reflationary backdrop and our expectations for a softer U.S. dollar.ā\nWhen it comes to specific stocks, Gilman Hill Asset Management CEO Jenny Harrington owns names includingChevron,OneokandKinder Morgan. She noted on ThursdayāsāHalftime Reportāthat itās important to look at the whole picture.

All five are IBD Long-Term Leaders. PayPal stock is in range of an early buy point, while the other four are close to breaking out. But they're also hovering near their 50-day lines.\nLong-Term Leaders are more mature names with solid, stable earnings growth, price performance and solid institutional backing. Because these tend to be less-explosive stocks, buying Long-Term Leaders near their 50-day line can be a better strategy.\nInvestors can buy stocks within 10% of their 50-day line. But with this year's choppy market, it's generally better to buy closer to the trigger point, whether it's the 10-week line, early entry or traditional buy point.\nMicrosoft, PayPal and Google stock are on IBD Leaderboard as well.\nPayPal Stock\nPayPal stock rose 1.9% to 283.38 in the stock market on Friday, advancing 4.4% for the week. The stock has an official buy point of 309.24. But it's cleared an early entry of 277.96, just above its mid-April short-term high. Volume picked up on Thursday and especially Friday as PYPL stock cleared the resistance area.\nShares are 7.9% above their 50-day line, far more than the other Long-Term Leaders highlighted here.\nThe relative strength line is off highs, which is OK because so is PayPal stock. But the RS line is at the best level since early March. The RS line, the blue line in the charts provided, tracks a stock's performance vs. the S&P 500 index.\nThe online payments giant has a Composite Rating of 91. Its EPS Rating is 98.\nPayPal's most recent round of earnings beat estimates, helped by Bitcoin transactions and government stimulus.\nPayPal stock was Friday's IBD Stock Of The Day.\nMicrosoft Stock\nMicrosoft stock fell 0.6% to 259.43. Shares edged up 0.6% for the week, the fourth straight weekly gain. MSFT stock is just below a 263.29 buy point from a cup base, part of a base-on-base pattern or even a base-on-base-on-base. Shares are 2.2% above their 50-day line.\nMSFT stock has an 88 Composite Rating and a 94 EPS Rating. The relative strength line is just below a consolidation high, though still considerably below last year's all-time high\nAs with some other tech stocks, Microsoft's cloud computing business stands to benefit from more people working at home long term.\nMicrosoft is set to showcase its next Windows operating system this coming week.\nPool Stock\nPool stock is in a flat base with a 449.54 buy point. Shares rose 1.3% to 442.02 on Friday. For the week, Pool stock rose 2.4%, rebounding from its 10-week line, now 3.2% above that key level.\nThe RS line for Pool stock is just below a consolidation high.\nPool Corp., a distributor of a variety of swimming-pool products, has vastly outpaced the big tech stocks mentioned here ā Microsoft, PayPal and Alphabet āĀ since the beginning of the bull market in 2009.\n\"Our sales have continued to benefit from elevated demand for residential pool products, driven by home-centric trends influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic,\" the company said in its most recent earnings report in April.\nPool stock has best-possible Composite and EPS Ratings of 99.\nGoogle Stock\nGoogle stock fell 1.3% to 2,402.22 on Friday. That's back below a 2,431.48 buy point from a flat base. GOOGL stock was trending around 4% above its 50-day line.\nThe stock has a 99 Composite Rating and a 94 EPS Rating. The relative strength line for Google stock is at record highs.\nEntegris Stock\nEntegris stock sank 2.2% to 117.24, but rose 0.7% for the week. The stock is in a cup base with a 126.51 buy point. It could be starting to form a handle, but needs several days before that forms. ENTG stock is 2.7% above its 50-day line.\nThe chip-gear maker has a 96 Composite Rating and a 93 EPS Rating.\nYOU MAY ALSO LIKE:\nNike Stock Shaky As Earnings Date Nears; Several Bellwethers Also Due To Report Results\nMarketSmith: Research, Charts, Data And Coaching All In One Place\nIBD 50 Tech Stock Rebound Continues, But Mind Your Base Counts\nRoku Clears Key Benchmark, Streaming Into A 90-Plus RS Rating\nDivided Market Flashes Warnings; Prime Time For These 5 Stocks?","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":281,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":165639664,"gmtCreate":1624122549458,"gmtModify":1703829128488,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Gotta keep all options open, huge disconnect in play","listText":"Gotta keep all options open, huge disconnect in play","text":"Gotta keep all options open, huge disconnect in play","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/165639664","repostId":"1189565772","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":119,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":165697204,"gmtCreate":1624122403908,"gmtModify":1703829125360,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Would do the same in his shoes","listText":"Would do the same in his shoes","text":"Would do the same in his shoes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/165697204","repostId":"2144218770","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2144218770","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1624060559,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2144218770?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-19 07:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Ex-Tesla president sold stocks worth $247 million since June 10-SEC filing","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2144218770","media":"Reuters","summary":"BERKELEY, Calif., June 18 (Reuters) - Long-time Tesla IncĀ executive and president Jerome Guillen, wh","content":"<p>BERKELEY, Calif., June 18 (Reuters) - Long-time Tesla Inc executive and president Jerome Guillen, who left the company earlier in June, has sold an estimated $274 million worth of shares after exercising stock options since June 10, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SEC.UK\">$(SEC.UK)$</a>.</p>\n<p>The filing, which was submitted to the SEC on Tuesday, said that Guillen expected to sell 215,718 shares for $129 million that day, and that he offloaded another 145,289 stocks worth $89.6 million on June 14, and 90,111 stocks worth $55 million on June 10.</p>\n<p>\"It could raise some eyebrows for investors,\" Wedbush Securities analyst Daniel Ives said, adding that investors are going to watch closely to see if he sells more.</p>\n<p>Guillen, a former Mercedes engineer who was with Tesla since 2010, oversaw the company's entire vehicles business before being named president of the Tesla Heavy Trucking unit in March.

Keay is the No. 1 ranked airlines analyst, according to Institutional Investorās poll of money managers.\nKeay said Friday in a note to clients that the trading in those two stocks was ābizarreā and that they have upside despite industry wide cost pressures.\nāThe market has penalized these ānon-diluters,ā perhaps saying theyāll have to dilute in the future, they made a mistake by not diluting, or that their pre-Covid margin gaps will close post-Covid. We disagree,ā the note said.\nShares of Delta are down 7% this quarter, while Alaska Air is down 9%.

The performance of the tech-heavy Nasdaq was in stark contrast to the S&P 500 and Dow, which slumped as investors reacted negatively to the Federal Reserve's unexpectedly hawkish message on monetary policy on Wednesday. Chipmaker Nvidia Corp jumped 5.4%, leading the charge among technology behemoths after Jefferies raised its price target on the stock. Technology shares, which generally perform better when interest rates are low, powered a rally on Wall Street last year as investors flocked to stocks seen as relatively safe during times of economic turmoil. The group has come under pressure this year on fears that rising inflation would lead the Fed to hike interest rates sooner than expected. The central bank on Wednesday moved its first projected rate increases from 2024 into 2023. Still, shares of Apple Inc , Microsoft Corp , Amazon.com Inc and Facebook Inc reversed premarket declines to rise between 1.4% and 2% as investors bet that a steady economic rebound would boost demand for their products in the long run. \"Yes there is rising inflation but the market is focusing more on the positives of improving earnings, robust GDP growth and the wider economy getting stronger,\" said Randy Frederick, vice president of trading and derivatives at Charles Schwab in Austin, Texas. \"Today's action is indicative that the Fed hasn't said anything that the market didn't already know.\" The Nasdaq briefly advanced to within 16 points of its lifetime peak achieved on April 29, before pulling back a touch. By 1:55PM ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 198.57 points, or 0.58%, to 33,835.1, the S&P 500 gained 0.24 points, or 0.01%, to 4,223.94 and the Nasdaq Composite added 127.04 points, or 0.9%, to 14,166.73. Interest rate-sensitive bank stocks slumped -3.8% as longer dated U.S. Treasury yields dropped. The strengthening dollar, another by-product of the previous day's Fed news, pushed U.S. oil prices down from the multi-year high hit earlier in the week. The energy index , in turn, fell more than 3%, the biggest laggard among the 11 main S&P sectors. Other economically sensitive stocks including materials and industrials fell 2.4% and 1.5% respectively, as data showed jobless claims rising last week for the first time in more than a month. Still, layoffs appeared to be easing amid a reopening economy and a shortage of people willing to work. \"In the balance of June and into the summer we anticipate continued volatility as we get more signals from economic data, Fed policy and as we get into the earnings season,\" said Greg Bassuk, chief executive officer at AXS Investments in New York.

(AAPL) has been a great investment, generating strong long-term returns and also healthy gains during the current crisis. Its returns were primarily driven by share price gains, and Apple's shareholder return program is also focused on share price gains due to prioritizing buybacks over dividends. Nevertheless, with a very safe dividend payout and healthy dividend growth, Apple holds some merits still. If you prioritize the<i>growth</i>in<i>dividend growth investing</i>, then Apple could very well be a solid holding, although this does not necessarily mean that right now is the best time to add shares.</p>\n<p><b>Does Apple Pay Dividends?</b></p>\n<p>Apple Inc. pays a dividend of $0.22 per share per quarter right now, with the most recent dividend payment being announced on April 28, 2021. The payment date for that dividend payment was May 13. Apple first started to make dividend payments in July 2012, around a time when Apple's free cash flows grew substantially, which made the company start its ambitious shareholder return programs. The first dividend payment was a $2.65 cash dividend, which equates to $0.09 when we account for the two stock splits that happened since then, a 7-for-1 split in 2014 and a 4-for-1 split in 2020. Over the last nine years, Apple's dividend has thus grown by 9.8% a year, on average.</p>\n<p><b>What Is Apple's Dividend Yield?</b></p>\n<p>Apple's dividend yield, based on a share price of $130, is 0.7%. This is, by far, not the highest yield the company's shares have offered in their history:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/173fe351d888f4cafb830bed9be3f6b9\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"403\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>AAPL offered a dividend yield of 2%+ at some points in its history. The steep decline in Apple's dividend yield over the last couple of years can be explained by the strong share price gains AAPL has experienced -- share price growth outpaced dividend increases, which is why the dividend yield has come down a lot over the recent past.</p>\n<p><b>How Often Does Apple Pay Dividends?</b></p>\n<p>Like most US-based companies that pay dividends, Apple makes four dividend payments per year, which means that investors get a dividend payment every quarter. As stated above, the most recent dividend payment has been announced in late April, thus investors can expect that Apple will declare the next dividend payment towards the end of July. This dividend should get paid, if history is a guide, towards the middle of August, as there is usually a 2-week period between declaration and payment.</p>\n<p>Apple raised its dividend with the dividend payment that was declared in April, which is in line with AAPL's history, as dividend increases in previous years were also announced in spring. Investors thus will likely have to wait until next spring to get another dividend increase, as three more payments should be made at the current level of $0.22 per share.</p>\n<p><b>Is Apple A Good Dividend Stock For 2021 And Beyond?</b></p>\n<p>The answer to this question depends on what exactly your goals are for your portfolio, as well as what time horizon you have in mind, and so on.</p>\n<p>Someone living off dividend income that needs a certain portfolio yield, for example of 3%, will likely not see Apple as a viable investment. Due to its below-average dividend yield, both relative to AAPL's history and relative to the broad market's yield, the income stream that investors will get from an investment in Apple at current prices isn't really that attractive. Many other stocks, including some tech stocks, offer significantly higher dividend yields and may thus be better suited for a portfolio that has the goal of generating income today to fit, for example, a retiree's needs.</p>\n<p>There are, however, also investors that do not need a lot of income today, and that still like to invest in stocks that have a history of raising their dividends regularly. Certain dividend growth investors do reinvest all dividend proceeds anyway, as they are still in the accumulation phase of wealth-building. Depending on one's approach, these investors may either prioritize dividend growth, current dividend yield, or a mixture of both. Someone that prioritizes dividend yield will likely flock to the likes of Altria (MO), which offers a high yield with lower dividend growth and lower earnings per share growth. Someone that prioritizes dividend growth over a stock's current dividend yield may flock to companies that have a lower dividend yield today, but that have more potential to raise their dividend at a high pace for many years. This ability to raise dividends at a steep pace for a long period of time usually rests on two pillars, a low dividend payout ratio, and a strong earnings per share growth outlook.</p>\n<p>A low dividend payout ratio, e.g. Apple's dividend payout ratio of just 17% (based on 2021 EPS estimates), leaves a lot of room for dividend growth through increases in the payout ratio. Apple could, if management decides so, easily triple its payout ratio to 51%, which would, all else equal, lead to 200% dividend growth. This is, of course, not possible for a company like Altria, which has a payout ratio of around 80% already. When investing in a stock like Altria, investors know that dividend growth can only come from earnings per share growth, not from an increase in the dividend payout ratio.</p>\n<p>Apple's dividend looks also very safe when we consider cash flows. During the last four quarters, Apple generated free cash flow of $5.27 per share (per YCharts), its cash dividend payout ratio is thus 16.7% -- this is, again, indicating that Apple's dividend is very safe and that there is a lot of room for increases in the payout ratio.</p>\n<p>Even when we back out a stock's potential to raise the dividend payout ratio, the dividend growth outlook is very different for different companies. Some companies are growing quickly and will likely grow at a strong pace for many years, e.g. NVIDIA (NVDA), while other companies have a more challenging growth outlook, where investors may be happy if the company manages to outgrow inflation. Some consumer goods companies, such as Coca-Cola (KO) and Colgate-Palmolive (CL), fit the latter group, as they have not shown meaningful revenue or earnings growth in recent years -- but the stocks still have their fans.</p>\n<p>AAPL belongs, I believe, to the stocks that have a very solid dividend growth outlook. The low dividend payout ratio could easily be raised if management ever decides to accelerate dividend growth, and thanks to a very healthy earnings per share growth outlook, Apple should be able to raise its dividend considerably even if the dividend payout ratio is held constant at the current level:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3c6a0a84a6961be1a93720183a7bf34\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"453\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>AAPL is forecasted to grow its earnings per share by 3% in 2022 and 2023, respectively. This is, to be honest, not a great growth rate, but analysts also expect that earnings per share growth will accelerate to 13% a year in the long run. Estimates are sometimes a little too optimistic, but even if Apple's long-term EPS growth is a little lower than what analysts are forecasting right now, a high-single-digit to low-double-digit earnings per share growth rate seems achievable. Growth will stem from a combination of market growth (more people buy phones, wearables, and so on), price increases, growth for the services business, and the introduction of new products. The last point could become a quite meaningful growth driver, as Apple seeks to expand its position in health-focused hardware and services, while also coming out with its own car project towards the mid-2020s. Last but not least, Apple's buybacks also benefit AAPL's earnings per share growth, which is why I believe that a 7%-10% EPS growth rate seems very much achievable in the long run. It should be noted that tax law changes, e.g. a proposed tax treatment of buybacks that is equal to how dividends are taxed, could result in a marginally lower EPS growth rate due to reduced buyback activity. In that scenario, EPS growth might stay closer to the lower end of the indicated range, but even if tax laws change, this wouldn't have a dramatic effect on Apple's EPS growth, I believe.</p>\n<p>Let's assume that Apple grows its earnings per share by 8% a year over the next decade and that its dividend growth rate is held constant at 9.8% a year -- in line with AAPL's dividend growth over the last nine years. In that scenario, Apple's dividend payout ratio rises from 17% to 20% through 2031, which would still be a very low dividend payout ratio. The per-share dividend would rise to $0.56, for a dividend yield of 1.7% based on AAPL's current share price. If dividends are reinvested over those ten years, the dividend yield on cost rises to 1.8%. Is this attractive? You be the judge, but I think it isn't really outstanding.</p>\n<p>There is, of course, the possibility that management eventually decides to raise the dividend payout ratio dramatically. At a payout ratio of 50%, based on our EPS estimate for 2031, Apple's dividend yield would be north of 4%, and north of 5% with dividends reinvested. That would be more attractive for sure, especially when such a yield comes from a healthy global leader with a strong moat, such as Apple. But this scenario, of course, only comes to fruition if management increases the payout ratio meaningfully. If, however, Apple's management decides to keep dividend growth more or less in line with EPS growth, then the low yield today prevents investors from receiving a very high yield on cost in the future.</p>\n<p>To sum this section up, I'd say that Apple is not suitable for those that want a large income stream right now -- the current yield is just too low. For those that prioritize dividend growth and the potential for steep increases in the payout ratio, AAPL could be more suitable, although it is not an outrageously strong buy for those, either, I personally believe. Apple traded at a dividend yield of 1.5%-2% not too long ago, which would have made for a much better entry point. But today, with a yield of 0.7%, most of Apple's potential to generate returns for investors rests on future share price gains, as dividends will not have a very large impact. For a growth-focused dividend growth investor, that may still make for a solid choice, as share price gains are, of course, also a way to generate returns. But for a more traditional income approach, Apple seems not really suitable due to its lowish yield today. One should also consider the fact that its current valuation, at 25 times forward earnings, is above the historic valuation norm, which, again, indicates that right now may not be the best time to buy.</p>\n<p>This does, of course, not mean that someone who holds shares that were purchased at another time has to sell these shares. If, for example, a dividend investor entered a position five years ago at a split-adjusted price of $24, the yield on cost on that investment is just shy of 4% today, and even above that level if dividends were reinvested along the way. If someone holds shares of Apple that were bought at a lower price that's great, but buying today may not be the best idea. Waiting for a lower valuation and a higher starting dividend yield could pay off in the long run.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Is Apple Stock Good For A Dividend Portfolio?</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\">\nIs Apple Stock Good For A Dividend Portfolio?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-17 13:58 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435082-apple-stock-good-dividend-portfolio><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nApple has been a great performer in the past and has raised its dividend reliably at an attractive pace of almost 10%.\nThe current dividend yield is pretty low, but so is the dividend payout ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435082-apple-stock-good-dividend-portfolio\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"č¹ę"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435082-apple-stock-good-dividend-portfolio","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1162028530","content_text":"Summary\n\nApple has been a great performer in the past and has raised its dividend reliably at an attractive pace of almost 10%.\nThe current dividend yield is pretty low, but so is the dividend payout ratio.

This ability to raise dividends at a steep pace for a long period of time usually rests on two pillars, a low dividend payout ratio, and a strong earnings per share growth outlook.\nA low dividend payout ratio, e.g. Apple's dividend payout ratio of just 17% (based on 2021 EPS estimates), leaves a lot of room for dividend growth through increases in the payout ratio. Apple could, if management decides so, easily triple its payout ratio to 51%, which would, all else equal, lead to 200% dividend growth. This is, of course, not possible for a company like Altria, which has a payout ratio of around 80% already. When investing in a stock like Altria, investors know that dividend growth can only come from earnings per share growth, not from an increase in the dividend payout ratio.\nApple's dividend looks also very safe when we consider cash flows. During the last four quarters, Apple generated free cash flow of $5.27 per share (per YCharts), its cash dividend payout ratio is thus 16.7% -- this is, again, indicating that Apple's dividend is very safe and that there is a lot of room for increases in the payout ratio.\nEven when we back out a stock's potential to raise the dividend payout ratio, the dividend growth outlook is very different for different companies. Some companies are growing quickly and will likely grow at a strong pace for many years, e.g. NVIDIA (NVDA), while other companies have a more challenging growth outlook, where investors may be happy if the company manages to outgrow inflation. Some consumer goods companies, such as Coca-Cola (KO) and Colgate-Palmolive (CL), fit the latter group, as they have not shown meaningful revenue or earnings growth in recent years -- but the stocks still have their fans.\nAAPL belongs, I believe, to the stocks that have a very solid dividend growth outlook. The low dividend payout ratio could easily be raised if management ever decides to accelerate dividend growth, and thanks to a very healthy earnings per share growth outlook, Apple should be able to raise its dividend considerably even if the dividend payout ratio is held constant at the current level:\nData by YCharts\nAAPL is forecasted to grow its earnings per share by 3% in 2022 and 2023, respectively. This is, to be honest, not a great growth rate, but analysts also expect that earnings per share growth will accelerate to 13% a year in the long run. Estimates are sometimes a little too optimistic, but even if Apple's long-term EPS growth is a little lower than what analysts are forecasting right now, a high-single-digit to low-double-digit earnings per share growth rate seems achievable. Growth will stem from a combination of market growth (more people buy phones, wearables, and so on), price increases, growth for the services business, and the introduction of new products. The last point could become a quite meaningful growth driver, as Apple seeks to expand its position in health-focused hardware and services, while also coming out with its ownĀ car projectĀ towards the mid-2020s. Last but not least, Apple's buybacks also benefit AAPL's earnings per share growth, which is why I believe that a 7%-10% EPS growth rate seems very much achievable in the long run. It should be noted that tax law changes, e.g. a proposed tax treatment of buybacks that is equal to how dividends are taxed, could result in a marginally lower EPS growth rate due to reduced buyback activity. In that scenario, EPS growth might stay closer to the lower end of the indicated range, but even if tax laws change, this wouldn't have a dramatic effect on Apple's EPS growth, I believe.\nLet's assume that Apple grows its earnings per share by 8% a year over the next decade and that its dividend growth rate is held constant at 9.8% a year -- in line with AAPL's dividend growth over the last nine years. In that scenario, Apple's dividend payout ratio rises from 17% to 20% through 2031, which would still be a very low dividend payout ratio. The per-share dividend would rise to $0.56, for a dividend yield of 1.7% based on AAPL's current share price. If dividends are reinvested over those ten years, the dividend yield on cost rises to 1.8%. Is this attractive? You be the judge, but I think it isn't really outstanding.\nThere is, of course, the possibility that management eventually decides to raise the dividend payout ratio dramatically. At a payout ratio of 50%, based on our EPS estimate for 2031, Apple's dividend yield would be north of 4%, and north of 5% with dividends reinvested. That would be more attractive for sure, especially when such a yield comes from a healthy global leader with a strong moat, such as Apple. But this scenario, of course, only comes to fruition if management increases the payout ratio meaningfully. If, however, Apple's management decides to keep dividend growth more or less in line with EPS growth, then the low yield today prevents investors from receiving a very high yield on cost in the future.\nTo sum this section up, I'd say that Apple is not suitable for those that want a large income stream right now -- the current yield is just too low. For those that prioritize dividend growth and the potential for steep increases in the payout ratio, AAPL could be more suitable, although it is not an outrageously strong buy for those, either, I personally believe. Apple traded at a dividend yield of 1.5%-2% not too long ago, which would have made for a much better entry point. But today, with a yield of 0.7%, most of Apple's potential to generate returns for investors rests on future share price gains, as dividends will not have a very large impact. For a growth-focused dividend growth investor, that may still make for a solid choice, as share price gains are, of course, also a way to generate returns. But for a more traditional income approach, Apple seems not really suitable due to its lowish yield today. One should also consider the fact that its current valuation, at 25 times forward earnings, is above the historic valuation norm, which, again, indicates that right now may not be the best time to buy.\nThis does, of course, not mean that someone who holds shares that were purchased at another time has to sell these shares. If, for example, a dividend investor entered a position five years ago at a split-adjusted price of $24, the yield on cost on that investment is just shy of 4% today, and even above that level if dividends were reinvested along the way. If someone holds shares of Apple that were bought at a lower price that's great, but buying today may not be the best idea. Waiting for a lower valuation and a higher starting dividend yield could pay off in the long run.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":134,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":168387923,"gmtCreate":1623951072162,"gmtModify":1703824572919,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Scalability needs to be addressed ","listText":"Scalability needs to be addressed ","text":"Scalability needs to be addressed","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/168387923","repostId":"1193159328","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1193159328","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623913694,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1193159328?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-17 15:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Reasons Palantir's Future Looks Bright","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1193159328","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Despite volatility in its stock, the data aggregation specialist looks poised for ongoing success.","content":"<p>The past several months have been a roller coaster for investors in data science software company <b>Palantir Technologies</b> (NYSE:PLTR).

The US government has proven Palantir's value</b></p>\n<p>The US government was the first organization to back Palantir in the early 2000s.

Palantir's years of proximity to the government have helped it win multiple contracts, strengthening its potential for future gains. Palantir derives 56% of its revenue from government clients -- its single largest customer. Losing that business could expose the company to devastating consequences.</p>\n<p>However, as Palantir penetrates various branches of government, its business becomes more \"sticky\" and difficult to displace.

The private sector currently represents just 44% of Palantir's business. As industries continue to lean on technology (especially with 5G dramatically increasing connectivity), more companies will need to manage their data.</p>\n<p>Palantir works with just a tiny fraction of the<i>Fortune</i>500 (just 24 companies in the Global 300). But if Palantir can provide the same level of value in its software to businesses that it has to the government, we are looking at a massive runway for expansion over the years ahead.</p>\n<p><b>Why Palantir has long-term upside</b></p>\n<p>Palantir's share price has gone up and down lately for no specific reason.

Itās why weāre introducing new store commerce models and policies.ā\nThe move is certain to rankle executives at both Apple and Google, which are facing antitrust investigations into their app store practices.\nApple is awaiting a ruling in an antitrust case brought by Epic Games, in which the āFortniteā developer accused the iPhone maker of abusing its market power over the App Store by forcing developers to use its own payment system and fork over the associated fees.\nGoogle, meanwhile, faces a similar lawsuit from Epic and is expected to get slapped with a lawsuit from a collection of state attorneys general for its app store policies.\nMicrosoft has been criticizing Appleās policies\nThis isnāt the first time Microsoft has called out its rivals and their app stores. The company has criticized Appleās policies in the past, specifically Appleās policy of taking a share of revenue from Microsoft apps purchased through the Apple App Store.\nMore recently, Microsoft sparred with Apple over its desire to get its xCloud cloud gaming platform onto the iPhone via a native app. Apple has pushed back, hampering Microsoftās cloud gaming ambitions and forcing it to make users rely on a browser-style app.\nThat led Microsoft to meet and lodge a complaint with members of the House Antitrust Subcommittee during the bodyās investigation into Apple, Google, Amazon, and Facebook.\nMicrosoft has debuted the latest version of its Windows operating system: Windows 11. (Image: Microsoft)Microsoft\nMicrosoft also took aim at Apple in the iPhone makerās battle with āFortniteā developer Epic Games. In that instance, Microsoft filed a statement of support for Epic in its fight to prevent Apple withholding iOS support for Epicās Unreal Engine.\nEpic initially sued Apple and Google after the two companies removed āForniteā from their respective app stores. Apple and Google argue that Epic implemented an update that added a separate payment system allowing consumers to circumvent Apple or Googleās payment services. That effectively cut out Apple and Googleās 30% app store fees.\nEpicās fight with Apple wrapped up earlier this month and a ruling is expected before the end of the summer.\nMicrosoft could win over developers\nWith its decision to allow developers to use their own payment systems, Microsoft is sending a signal to the global developer community that it is willing to play by their rules. That could help the company as it seeks to build out its app store and drive more business for Windows.\nWhile Microsoft was caught flat-footed in the smartphone wars, its moves with the Windows 11 Microsoft Store could give it the kind of boost from developers that it needs to begin taking market share from Apple and Google in the fight for app store supremacy. Itās now up to Apple and Google to respond.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":631,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":121538678,"gmtCreate":1624472562994,"gmtModify":1703837814134,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"All aboard the meme express!","listText":"All aboard the meme express!","text":"All aboard the meme express!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/121538678","repostId":"1159107044","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1159107044","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624459161,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1159107044?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-23 22:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Goldman Sachs Briefly Builds Stake in Meme Stock Orphazyme","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1159107044","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Goldman Sachs Group Inc. briefly built, then sold a stake in Denmarkās first meme stock, according t","content":"<p>Goldman Sachs Group Inc. briefly built, then sold a stake in Denmarkās first meme stock, according to a regulatory filing.</p>\n<p>Orphazyme A/S, a small Danish biotech firm,saidon Wednesday the Wall Street firm had a stake that exceeded the 5% threshold that triggers a filing, and then quickly reduced its holding to below that level last week.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/87c5b53a8732ab8cba47ac53ffda357d\" tg-width=\"558\" tg-height=\"313\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Goldmanās holding was 5.58% as of June 16, and less then 5% a day later.

Keay is the No. 1 ranked airlines analyst, according to Institutional Investorās poll of money managers.\nKeay said Friday in a note to clients that the trading in those two stocks was ābizarreā and that they have upside despite industry wide cost pressures.\nāThe market has penalized these ānon-diluters,ā perhaps saying theyāll have to dilute in the future, they made a mistake by not diluting, or that their pre-Covid margin gaps will close post-Covid. We disagree,ā the note said.\nShares of Delta are down 7% this quarter, while Alaska Air is down 9%. Both are underperforming theU.S. Global Jets ETFover that time period.\nThere are still issues for the companies, including rising prices and the uncertain return of business travel, but Keay argued the smartly run companies should still succeed.\nāGranted, the lack of business travel returning is a concern for DAL, but they didnāt get stupid overnight. And we arenāt so sure business travel canāt be stimulated,ā the note said.\nWolfe hiked its price target to $55 per share from $37 for Delta, representing an upside of 23%. The firmās price target of $78 per share for Alaska is 25% above where the stock closed on Thursday.\nAdditionally, Wolfe upgradedUnited Airlinesto peer perform from underperform.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":171,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9017133404,"gmtCreate":1649753543232,"gmtModify":1676534565291,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yay!","listText":"Yay!","text":"Yay!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9017133404","repostId":"9016476123","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":9016476123,"gmtCreate":1649229403658,"gmtModify":1676534474180,"author":{"id":"3527667667103859","authorId":"3527667667103859","name":"TigerEvents","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c266ef25181ace18bec1262357bbe1a8","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3527667667103859","authorIdStr":"3527667667103859"},"themes":[],"title":"šćGAMEćHunting Eggs for Extra Saving!","htmlText":"Tiger has prepared some Easter gifts for you, please <a href=\"https://www.tigerbrokers.com.sg/activity/market/2022/easter/\" target=\"_blank\">click here</a> to check them out!Easter can still be a bonus-boosting.

However, investors watching Amazon's stock over the last 12 months or so would be led to think otherwise. After a big move last year, the stock has virtually frozen since mid 2020. In times where meme stock investors are making a lot of tendies (profits), Amazon's near-term underperformance has been disappointing for many long-term investors. However, things could look a lot different in the next 6-12 months.

Amazon's higher-margin businesses, i.e., Amazon Web Services and Digital Ads (hidden in the \"Other\" segment in financial statements), are seeing accelerated growth. Furthermore, Amazon's e-commerce business also is delivering huge amounts of free cash flow at scale. Over the last 12 months, Amazon garnered $67B of cash from operations, which represents a 69% year-over-year jump. With business showing no signs of slowing down in the post-pandemic world and impending reduction in pandemic costs (billions of dollars per quarter), Amazon could very well deliver a big jump in free cash flow this year. As you may know, Amazon's balance sheet already is a fortress.

In Q1, Amazon's operating income increased by ~122% y/y to come in at $8.865B (rapid q/q acceleration). Over the next 12 months, Amazon would likely deliver an operating income of ~$40-50B. This massive jump in operating income will translate into greater amounts of free cash flow (and, by extension, a higher share price).</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/de1ec1d647bed5d59e91bdaa0535d25e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"420\"></p>\n<p>Source: Amazon Q1 2021 Earnings Release</p>\n<p>Since 2018, Amazon has seen a big jump in Cash from Operations, which has gone up ~3.5x from ~$20B per year to ~$70B per year in 2021. Amazon, being Amazon, has invested massive amounts of this cash back into its business to drive future revenue growth, resulting in lower levels of free cash flow ($26.5B in 2020).

Further margin expansion is likely to create even more free cash flow over coming quarters and years, and this cash pile will only grow bigger. At some point in the near future, Amazon will need to start returning capital to shareholders through buybacks or dividends. My estimate is that Amazon would start a capital return program by 2025, but I will discuss this prediction in a separate note in the future.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9c041f8732f0e9557d632f4bc3444b54\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"379\"></p>\n<p>Source: YCharts</p>\n<p>Amazon is expected to record ~$500B in annual sales in 2021 and I expect Amazon to take over the title of the \"largest company by sales\" in 2022. In my opinion, Amazon still has massive growth left in its armory. According to consensus analyst estimates on Seeking Alpha, Amazon would likely be raking in revenue of $1.5T per year by 2030.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c6b99e2dd54b3885cd7542d213be0429\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"635\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source:Seeking Alpha</p>\n<p>I believe these numbers are achievable. In fact, they're very likely to materialize over the next decade. AWS, Digital Ads, and Amazon Care (in-house healthcare offering (at least for now)) are likely to be the primary drivers of future free cash flow for the company. Now, let's estimate the fair value and expected returns for Amazon.</p>\n<p><b>Fair Value And Expected Returns</b></p>\n<p>To determine Amazon's fair value, we will employ our proprietary valuation model. Here's what it entails:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><p>In step 1, we use a traditional DCF model with free cash flow discounted by our (shareholders) cost of capital.</p></li>\n <li><p>In step 2, the model accounts for the effects of the change in shares outstanding (buybacks/dilutions).</p></li>\n <li><p>In step 3, we normalize valuation for future growth prospects at the end of the 10 years. Then, using today's share price and the projected share price at the end of 10 years, we arrive at a CAGR. If this beats the market by enough of a margin, we invest. If not, we wait for a better entry point.</p></li>\n</ul>\n<p>With massive amounts of cash flow being generated from operations, Amazon could soon find itself with the good problem of having too much cash on its balance sheet. At some point over the next decade, Amazon will need to start returning capital to shareholders (via buybacks or dividends). I will share my analysis as to when that would happen some other time. However, for now, we will build our valuation without accounting for future capital return programs.</p>\n<p><b>Assumptions:</b></p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/82136b2cd82ebf242b95eb6d17e2f4b1\" tg-width=\"620\" tg-height=\"538\"></p>\n<p>Here are the results:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/50a3cb8964e421080c530abc1b3d62bf\" tg-width=\"603\" tg-height=\"729\">Source: L.A. Stevens Valuation Model</p>\n<p>As per my estimation, Amazon is worth ~$5,900 per share. The stock is trading at ~$3,400, which means Amazon has a near-term upside of +73.5% to its fair value. By utilizing conservative assumptions, we have ensured that our valuation has an ample margin of safety built into it.</p>\n<p>To calculate the total expected return, we simply grow the above free cash flow per share at our conservative growth rate, then assign a conservative multiple, i.e., 30x, to it for year 10. This creates a conservative intrinsic value projection by which we determine when and where to deploy our capital.</p>\n<p>Here are the results:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1fb09f1799ac5ea2741e204766b4df3c\" tg-width=\"605\" tg-height=\"429\">Source: L.A. Stevens Valuation Model</p>\n<p>As you can see above, Amazon's stock price could grow from ~$3,400 to ~$18,750 at a CAGR of ~18.6% in the next 10 years. Since we haven't considered future buybacks and dividends in today's valuation, there's a good chance that Amazon will outperform our expected return projections. My investment hurdle rate is 15%, and since Amazon's expected return is above this level, I rate Amazon a buy.</p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Amazon's visionary founder, Jeff Bezos, is set to step down as Amazon CEO and transition to the role of Executive Chairman of the Board. His replacement is AWS CEO Andy Jassy, who is a very capable business leader, as evidenced by AWS's rise from zero to $50 billion annual revenue business in just 15 years. However, an executive leadership change of this magnitude carries several risks, and we will be keeping a keen eye on Andy over the next few earning calls to understand his vision for Amazon.</li>\n <li>Furthermore, the leadership transition comes at a time when Amazon is facing rising pressure from regulators and lawmakers. In the recent big tech antitrust hearing, most lawmakers came away with the conclusion that Amazon is anti competitive (along with Facebook (FB), Alphabet (GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL), and Apple (AAPL)). With the threat of a DOJ investigation looming large, investors might be nervous about potential outcomes. Any monetary fine would simply be the cost of doing business. For years, Amazon's FCF machine - AWS - has supported the aggressive expansion (anti-competitive behavior) of its retail ecosystem. Therefore, a potential (government-enforced) break up of Amazon is viewed by many as a massive risk for the company. However, Amazon's retail ecosystem is self sustainable now (generates positive FCF), and any breakup could unlock value for shareholders. We shared our views on this topic in thisnote.</li>\n <li>Since Amazon's Ads business is not reliant on personal information for Ad targeting (unlike Facebook and Alphabet), we do not see any major headwinds for this still-emerging, yet crucial business line.</li>\n <li>In the near term, Amazon's e-commerce business could come under pressure as life returns to a new normal in the post-pandemic world. The massive jump in e-commerce revenue could reverse somewhat in upcoming quarters as people regain mobility.</li>\n <li>For the first time in over 15 years, Amazon lost market share to Shopify (SHOP) in 2020. This is a new challenge for Amazon, and the digitization efforts from retail giants like Walmart (WMT) and Target (TGT) are likely to result in greater competition for Amazon.</li>\n <li>Also, Microsoft's Azure (MSFT) is growing faster than AWS (albeit from a lower revenue base). Under Satya Nadella's leadership, Microsoft has emerged as a force to be reckoned with in the cloud services industry. If AWS fails to retain its market leadership position, Amazon could fall short of our projections.</li>\n <li>Amazon's Digital Ads business is likely to be critical to future success for the company. With the threat of potential regulations hanging over the digital ad industry, the numbers projected for this line of business may not materialize.</li>\n <li>The healthcare offering being built at Amazon could be the next big thing (business) to emerge from the company (like AWS, Prime Video, etc.). However, healthcare is a very complicated industry, and pure-plays like Teladoc have a much better chance of winning this market opportunity. Since we are well aware of Amazon's innovation capabilities, I wouldn't necessarily attribute this spending to be an unwarranted risk.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Concluding Thoughts</b></p>\n<p>Amazon's higher-margin businesses are firing on all cylinders (accelerating growth), and while the stock has remained in a tight channel for almost a year now, the second half of 2021 could bring a fresh leg higher. As we saw earlier in this article, Amazon's operating margins are improving steadily due to the rapid growth of higher-margin businesses, i.e., AWS and Digital Ads.</p>\n<p>In the last 12 months or so, Amazon's stock has been consolidating in a sideways channel. During this time, trading multiples have normalized, and Amazon is now trading at pre-pandemic levels. With robust revenue growth and margin expansion on the horizon, Amazon's stock is set to move higher.</p>\n<p>Key Takeaway: I rate Amazon a buy at $3,400.</p>\n<p>Thanks for reading, remember to follow for more, and happy investing!</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Amazon's Stock Is Ready For The Next Leg Higher</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\">\nAmazon's Stock Is Ready For The Next Leg Higher\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-21 23:19 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435860-amazons-stock-is-ready-for-the-next-leg-higher><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nAfter a year-long consolidation in stock prices, Amazon looks set to move higher due to continued momentum in its higher-margin businesses, i.e., AWS and Digital Ads.\nAmazon looks poised to ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435860-amazons-stock-is-ready-for-the-next-leg-higher\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AMZN":"äŗ马é"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435860-amazons-stock-is-ready-for-the-next-leg-higher","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1127414335","content_text":"Summary\n\nAfter a year-long consolidation in stock prices, Amazon looks set to move higher due to continued momentum in its higher-margin businesses, i.e., AWS and Digital Ads.\nAmazon looks poised to blow past $500B in annual sales in 2021 with massive improvements in operating margins (profitability).\nThe stock is trading well below its fair value of $5,900 per share, and investors could generate ~19% CAGR returns over the next decade with Amazon.\nToday, I will share my analysis that suggests a fresh leg higher for Amazon's stock.

Here's what it entails:\n\nIn step 1, we use a traditional DCF model with free cash flow discounted by our (shareholders) cost of capital.\nIn step 2, the model accounts for the effects of the change in shares outstanding (buybacks/dilutions).\nIn step 3, we normalize valuation for future growth prospects at the end of the 10 years. Then, using today's share price and the projected share price at the end of 10 years, we arrive at a CAGR. If this beats the market by enough of a margin, we invest. If not, we wait for a better entry point.\n\nWith massive amounts of cash flow being generated from operations, Amazon could soon find itself with the good problem of having too much cash on its balance sheet. At some point over the next decade, Amazon will need to start returning capital to shareholders (via buybacks or dividends). I will share my analysis as to when that would happen some other time. However, for now, we will build our valuation without accounting for future capital return programs.\nAssumptions:\n\nHere are the results:\nSource: L.A. Stevens Valuation Model\nAs per my estimation, Amazon is worth ~$5,900 per share. The stock is trading at ~$3,400, which means Amazon has a near-term upside of +73.5% to its fair value. By utilizing conservative assumptions, we have ensured that our valuation has an ample margin of safety built into it.\nTo calculate the total expected return, we simply grow the above free cash flow per share at our conservative growth rate, then assign a conservative multiple, i.e., 30x, to it for year 10. This creates a conservative intrinsic value projection by which we determine when and where to deploy our capital.\nHere are the results:\nSource: L.A. Stevens Valuation Model\nAs you can see above, Amazon's stock price could grow from ~$3,400 to ~$18,750 at a CAGR of ~18.6% in the next 10 years. Since we haven't considered future buybacks and dividends in today's valuation, there's a good chance that Amazon will outperform our expected return projections. My investment hurdle rate is 15%, and since Amazon's expected return is above this level, I rate Amazon a buy.\nRisks\n\nAmazon's visionary founder, Jeff Bezos, is set to step down as Amazon CEO and transition to the role of Executive Chairman of the Board. His replacement is AWS CEO Andy Jassy, who is a very capable business leader, as evidenced by AWS's rise from zero to $50 billion annual revenue business in just 15 years. However, an executive leadership change of this magnitude carries several risks, and we will be keeping a keen eye on Andy over the next few earning calls to understand his vision for Amazon.\nFurthermore, the leadership transition comes at a time when Amazon is facing rising pressure from regulators and lawmakers. In the recent big tech antitrust hearing, most lawmakers came away with the conclusion that Amazon is anti competitive (along with Facebook (FB), Alphabet (GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL), and Apple (AAPL)). With the threat of a DOJ investigation looming large, investors might be nervous about potential outcomes. Any monetary fine would simply be the cost of doing business. For years, Amazon's FCF machine - AWS - has supported the aggressive expansion (anti-competitive behavior) of its retail ecosystem. Therefore, a potential (government-enforced) break up of Amazon is viewed by many as a massive risk for the company. However, Amazon's retail ecosystem is self sustainable now (generates positive FCF), and any breakup could unlock value for shareholders. We shared our views on this topic in thisnote.\nSince Amazon's Ads business is not reliant on personal information for Ad targeting (unlike Facebook and Alphabet), we do not see any major headwinds for this still-emerging, yet crucial business line.\nIn the near term, Amazon's e-commerce business could come under pressure as life returns to a new normal in the post-pandemic world. The massive jump in e-commerce revenue could reverse somewhat in upcoming quarters as people regain mobility.\nFor the first time in over 15 years, Amazon lost market share to Shopify (SHOP) in 2020. This is a new challenge for Amazon, and the digitization efforts from retail giants like Walmart (WMT) and Target (TGT) are likely to result in greater competition for Amazon.\nAlso, Microsoft's Azure (MSFT) is growing faster than AWS (albeit from a lower revenue base). Under Satya Nadella's leadership, Microsoft has emerged as a force to be reckoned with in the cloud services industry. If AWS fails to retain its market leadership position, Amazon could fall short of our projections.\nAmazon's Digital Ads business is likely to be critical to future success for the company. With the threat of potential regulations hanging over the digital ad industry, the numbers projected for this line of business may not materialize.\nThe healthcare offering being built at Amazon could be the next big thing (business) to emerge from the company (like AWS, Prime Video, etc.). However, healthcare is a very complicated industry, and pure-plays like Teladoc have a much better chance of winning this market opportunity. Since we are well aware of Amazon's innovation capabilities, I wouldn't necessarily attribute this spending to be an unwarranted risk.\n\nConcluding Thoughts\nAmazon's higher-margin businesses are firing on all cylinders (accelerating growth), and while the stock has remained in a tight channel for almost a year now, the second half of 2021 could bring a fresh leg higher. As we saw earlier in this article, Amazon's operating margins are improving steadily due to the rapid growth of higher-margin businesses, i.e., AWS and Digital Ads.\nIn the last 12 months or so, Amazon's stock has been consolidating in a sideways channel. During this time, trading multiples have normalized, and Amazon is now trading at pre-pandemic levels. With robust revenue growth and margin expansion on the horizon, Amazon's stock is set to move higher.\nKey Takeaway: I rate Amazon a buy at $3,400.\nThanks for reading, remember to follow for more, and happy investing!","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":669,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":164267579,"gmtCreate":1624209534091,"gmtModify":1703830694239,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Back the banks ","listText":"Back the banks ","text":"Back the banks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/164267579","repostId":"1158784745","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158784745","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624017454,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1158784745?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-18 19:57","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Inflation breakout will drive 10-year Treasury yields above 2% in coming months, Wells Fargo predicts","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158784745","media":"cnbc","summary":"Treasury yields may be about to break out.\nEven though yields temporarily fell after this week's Fed","content":"<div>\n<p>Treasury yields may be about to break out.\nEven though yields temporarily fell after this week's Federal Reserve decision on interest rates, Wells Fargo Securities' Michael Schumacher expects the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/18/inflation-breakout-will-soon-drive-10-year-yields-above-2percent-wells-fargo.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

But we do think there's a pretty strong bear case to be made over the next six [to] seven months.\"\nSchumacherattributes the inflation comeback for his forecastā with an emphasis on the next 12 months.\n\"Core PCEwhich the Fed likes to look at is above 3% for the next year. It's an amazing number. We have not seen inflation like that in the U.S. on a sustained basis for a very long time,\" he said. \"This really gets at what the people in the market are focused on: Just how long is that inflation spike going to last? Is it transient? Is it transitory? I don't know. But it's troubling, that's pretty clear.\"\nIn his post-Fed decision research note, Schumacher said the Fed is still coming to terms with the inflation spike. According to Schumacher, the biggest risk facing the bond market and economy is the Fed's potential response to the strong economic comeback. If the Fed gets spooked, it would likely hike rates next year instead of waiting until at least 2023.\nSo far, Schumacher's bond market outlook is on target.\nComing into 2021, Schumacher predicted the10-year yieldwould hit 1.15% to 1.35% by this year's halfway point ā with the caveat it could reach as high as 1.50%. He made the forecast when the yield was below 1% and months before the Covid-19 vaccines were widely available.\nOn Thursday, the 10-year yield closed at 1.51%. It's up almost 4% over the past week, but down 8% over the past three months.\nHe also doubts the dollar, which initially surged on a more hawkish Fed, will continue to extend its gains.\n\"For the first quarter of this year, the U.S. and arguably the U.K. had a tremendous advantage over most of the Western world in terms of Covid vaccinations. Now, a lot of countries are catching up, and you could view that as a proxy for future economic activity,\" Schumacher said. \"Thedollaris losing some of those tailwinds.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":648,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":164262479,"gmtCreate":1624209143291,"gmtModify":1703830689713,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy the dip ahead of the inevitable rate hike","listText":"Buy the dip ahead of the inevitable rate hike","text":"Buy the dip ahead of the inevitable rate hike","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/164262479","repostId":"1119296361","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1119296361","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624028454,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1119296361?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-18 23:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Bank Stocks Were Fed Day Winners.

With jobless claims missing by a wide margin Thursdayāand experiencing the first rise following six weeks of dropsāthe market decided to focus on the latter, not the former, says Evercore ISI strategist Dennis DeBusschere. āThe risk to the economic outlook is the sharp turn to hawkish side, relative to what everyone previously thought, at the same time the labor market isnāt as strong as the Fed assumed,ā he writes.\nUntil that changes, it will be hard for bank stocks to bounce back.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":561,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":164262812,"gmtCreate":1624209087336,"gmtModify":1703830689228,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Never underestimate the o&g sector, the sun hasnāt quite set yet ","listText":"Never underestimate the o&g sector, the sun hasnāt quite set yet ","text":"Never underestimate the o&g sector, the sun hasnāt quite set yet","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/164262812","repostId":"1138062216","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1138062216","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624029740,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1138062216?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-18 23:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Energy stocks roar toward their best year in three decades amid recovery in oil","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1138062216","media":"cnbc","summary":"Itās six months into 2021, andenergy stocksare already on pace for their best year in more than thre","content":"<div>\n<p>Itās six months into 2021, andenergy stocksare already on pace for their best year in more than three decades, leading some to believe the run may be due for a pullback.\nThe group pulled back on ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/18/energy-stocks-roar-toward-their-best-year-in-three-decades-amid-recovery-in-oil.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Thatās almost double the 23% return for the real estate sector, which is the second-best sector. The S&P 500 is up nearly 12% this year.\nEnergyās big start to the year means that even if the sector goes nowhere for the rest of 2021, it will still be the best year since 1990 by nearly 10%, according to Bay Crest Partners chief market technician Jonathan Krinsky.\nThe surge in energy stocks comes on the back of a recovery in oil prices, and as investors return to areas of the market that were left out of 2020ā²s rebound from the pandemic lows. The sector was also starting from a low base. In 2020, the group fell 37.3% for its worst performance since inception in 1989.\nKrinsky is among those saying the upside move is overdone, and his call is to sell crude oil and energy stocks broadly. From a technical standpoint, he noted that the $420 to $450 level acted as support ā a floor ā for the group during the last decade. But then during the Covid sell-off, the sector plunged below that key level ā breaking below $200 ā as the pandemic ground economies around the world to a halt.\n\nThe S&P Energy SectorĀ has since recovered and traded as high as $420 on Thursday, inching closer to their prior support level, which now acts as resistance, or where an uptrend could be expected to reverse.\nāOftentimes when you break a very important support like that, once you come back and test it as resistance, itās difficult to exceed that ā at least on the first try,ā Krinsky noted.\nGauging performance from Jan. 1 might seem arbitrary, but he added that the sectorās outperformance is notable from virtually any date. Over the last eight months, the group has returned over 90%, which Krinsky says is more than two times the prior largest such gain over the last three decades.\nāEven on a rolling basis this is somewhat unprecedented,ā he said. His bearish call on the sector also stems from other commodities breaking down, including lumber and copper. The latter is now breaking its uptrend, and Krinsky noted that copper was a leading indicator for the 2020 low, hitting a bottom one month ahead of West Texas Intermediate Crude futures.\nTOP-PERFORMING S&P 500 ENERGY STOCKS THIS YEAR\n\n\n\nTICKER\nCOMPANY\nPRICE\n%CHANGE\nYIELD\nPREVIOUS CLOSE\n\n\n\n\nMRO\nMarathon Oil Corp\n12.83\n-0.4655\n12.83\n12.89\n\n\nFANG\nDiamondback Energy Inc\n86.23\n-0.7596\n86.23\n86.89\n\n\nDVN\nDevon Energy Corp\n27.22\n-1.3411\n27.22\n27.59\n\n\nEOG\nEOG Resources Inc\n80.795\n-0.7798\n80.795\n81.43\n\n\n\nWithin the sector,Marathon Oilhas gained nearly 93% this year, making it the top-performing energy stock in the S&P 500.\nDiamondback Energyrose about 80% year to date, andDevon Energyclimbed more than 70%.OccidentalandEOG Resourcesare up more than 60%.\nAmid the outperformance the group remains unloved by Wall Street as factors ā including environmental, social and corporate governance investing ā prompt investors to shy away from the sector. Bank of America recently noted that the entire sector makes up just 2% of the average long-only portfolio, or less than half the allocation toward Facebook, which sits at 4.2%.\nEnergy still comprises a tiny portion of the S&P 500, but as the sectorās weighting grows, fund managers who shun the space could risk returns.\nMRB Partners on Thursday reiterated its overweight rating on the group, saying the recovery in demand for petroleum products, coupled with ongoing supply constraints, should push oil prices higher, leading to further returns for energy stocks.\nāStrengthening cash flows, leaner cost structures, and better capital discipline position the industry to moderately increase capital returns to shareholders,ā strategists led by Salvatore Ruscitti wrote in a note to clients. āRelative performance will benefit from the reflationary backdrop and our expectations for a softer U.S. dollar.ā\nWhen it comes to specific stocks, Gilman Hill Asset Management CEO Jenny Harrington owns names includingChevron,OneokandKinder Morgan. She noted on ThursdayāsāHalftime Reportāthat itās important to look at the whole picture.

On the flip side, itās well above where it traded in June of 2020 as the pandemic took hold.\nāTheyāre all trading at a fraction of the market multiple,ā Harrington said of the energy stocks she owns. āThey all have hefty dividend yields,ā she added, arguing that strong earnings growth means āthereās a lot of room to go here.ā","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":116,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":164210162,"gmtCreate":1624206420256,"gmtModify":1703830654742,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Long overdue reforms required to tackle structural changes ","listText":"Long overdue reforms required to tackle structural changes ","text":"Long overdue reforms required to tackle structural changes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/164210162","repostId":"2144704375","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2144704375","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1624197525,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2144704375?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-20 21:58","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Italy, hosting G20, will call for tougher 'gig economy' rules","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2144704375","media":"Reuters","summary":"ROME, June 20 (Reuters) - Italy will call for tougher rules governing 'gig economy' workers when it ","content":"<html><body><p>ROME, June 20 (Reuters) - Italy will call for tougher rules governing 'gig economy' workers when it hosts labour ministers of the world's biggest economies in the Group of 20 next week.</p><p> Italy's labour minister, Andrea Orlando, said countries should require big companies such as Amazon to take responsibility for working conditions at their suppliers, as part of reforms to ensure contractors are well-treated.</p><p> \"Large corporations must also take responsibility for small ones.

The performance of the tech-heavy Nasdaq was in stark contrast to the S&P 500 and Dow, which slumped as investors reacted negatively to the Federal Reserve's unexpectedly hawkish message on monetary policy on Wednesday. Chipmaker Nvidia Corp jumped 5.4%, leading the charge among technology behemoths after Jefferies raised its price target on the stock. Technology shares, which generally perform better when interest rates are low, powered a rally on Wall Street last year as investors flocked to stocks seen as relatively safe during times of economic turmoil. The group has come under pressure this year on fears that rising inflation would lead the Fed to hike interest rates sooner than expected. The central bank on Wednesday moved its first projected rate increases from 2024 into 2023. Still, shares of Apple Inc , Microsoft Corp , Amazon.com Inc and Facebook Inc reversed premarket declines to rise between 1.4% and 2% as investors bet that a steady economic rebound would boost demand for their products in the long run. \"Yes there is rising inflation but the market is focusing more on the positives of improving earnings, robust GDP growth and the wider economy getting stronger,\" said Randy Frederick, vice president of trading and derivatives at Charles Schwab in Austin, Texas. \"Today's action is indicative that the Fed hasn't said anything that the market didn't already know.\" The Nasdaq briefly advanced to within 16 points of its lifetime peak achieved on April 29, before pulling back a touch. By 1:55PM ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 198.57 points, or 0.58%, to 33,835.1, the S&P 500 gained 0.24 points, or 0.01%, to 4,223.94 and the Nasdaq Composite added 127.04 points, or 0.9%, to 14,166.73. Interest rate-sensitive bank stocks slumped -3.8% as longer dated U.S. Treasury yields dropped. The strengthening dollar, another by-product of the previous day's Fed news, pushed U.S. oil prices down from the multi-year high hit earlier in the week. The energy index , in turn, fell more than 3%, the biggest laggard among the 11 main S&P sectors. Other economically sensitive stocks including materials and industrials fell 2.4% and 1.5% respectively, as data showed jobless claims rising last week for the first time in more than a month. Still, layoffs appeared to be easing amid a reopening economy and a shortage of people willing to work. \"In the balance of June and into the summer we anticipate continued volatility as we get more signals from economic data, Fed policy and as we get into the earnings season,\" said Greg Bassuk, chief executive officer at AXS Investments in New York.

(AAPL) has been a great investment, generating strong long-term returns and also healthy gains during the current crisis. Its returns were primarily driven by share price gains, and Apple's shareholder return program is also focused on share price gains due to prioritizing buybacks over dividends. Nevertheless, with a very safe dividend payout and healthy dividend growth, Apple holds some merits still. If you prioritize the<i>growth</i>in<i>dividend growth investing</i>, then Apple could very well be a solid holding, although this does not necessarily mean that right now is the best time to add shares.</p>\n<p><b>Does Apple Pay Dividends?</b></p>\n<p>Apple Inc. pays a dividend of $0.22 per share per quarter right now, with the most recent dividend payment being announced on April 28, 2021. The payment date for that dividend payment was May 13. Apple first started to make dividend payments in July 2012, around a time when Apple's free cash flows grew substantially, which made the company start its ambitious shareholder return programs. The first dividend payment was a $2.65 cash dividend, which equates to $0.09 when we account for the two stock splits that happened since then, a 7-for-1 split in 2014 and a 4-for-1 split in 2020. Over the last nine years, Apple's dividend has thus grown by 9.8% a year, on average.</p>\n<p><b>What Is Apple's Dividend Yield?</b></p>\n<p>Apple's dividend yield, based on a share price of $130, is 0.7%. This is, by far, not the highest yield the company's shares have offered in their history:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/173fe351d888f4cafb830bed9be3f6b9\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"403\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>AAPL offered a dividend yield of 2%+ at some points in its history. The steep decline in Apple's dividend yield over the last couple of years can be explained by the strong share price gains AAPL has experienced -- share price growth outpaced dividend increases, which is why the dividend yield has come down a lot over the recent past.</p>\n<p><b>How Often Does Apple Pay Dividends?</b></p>\n<p>Like most US-based companies that pay dividends, Apple makes four dividend payments per year, which means that investors get a dividend payment every quarter. As stated above, the most recent dividend payment has been announced in late April, thus investors can expect that Apple will declare the next dividend payment towards the end of July. This dividend should get paid, if history is a guide, towards the middle of August, as there is usually a 2-week period between declaration and payment.</p>\n<p>Apple raised its dividend with the dividend payment that was declared in April, which is in line with AAPL's history, as dividend increases in previous years were also announced in spring. Investors thus will likely have to wait until next spring to get another dividend increase, as three more payments should be made at the current level of $0.22 per share.</p>\n<p><b>Is Apple A Good Dividend Stock For 2021 And Beyond?</b></p>\n<p>The answer to this question depends on what exactly your goals are for your portfolio, as well as what time horizon you have in mind, and so on.</p>\n<p>Someone living off dividend income that needs a certain portfolio yield, for example of 3%, will likely not see Apple as a viable investment. Due to its below-average dividend yield, both relative to AAPL's history and relative to the broad market's yield, the income stream that investors will get from an investment in Apple at current prices isn't really that attractive. Many other stocks, including some tech stocks, offer significantly higher dividend yields and may thus be better suited for a portfolio that has the goal of generating income today to fit, for example, a retiree's needs.</p>\n<p>There are, however, also investors that do not need a lot of income today, and that still like to invest in stocks that have a history of raising their dividends regularly. Certain dividend growth investors do reinvest all dividend proceeds anyway, as they are still in the accumulation phase of wealth-building. Depending on one's approach, these investors may either prioritize dividend growth, current dividend yield, or a mixture of both. Someone that prioritizes dividend yield will likely flock to the likes of Altria (MO), which offers a high yield with lower dividend growth and lower earnings per share growth. Someone that prioritizes dividend growth over a stock's current dividend yield may flock to companies that have a lower dividend yield today, but that have more potential to raise their dividend at a high pace for many years. This ability to raise dividends at a steep pace for a long period of time usually rests on two pillars, a low dividend payout ratio, and a strong earnings per share growth outlook.</p>\n<p>A low dividend payout ratio, e.g. Apple's dividend payout ratio of just 17% (based on 2021 EPS estimates), leaves a lot of room for dividend growth through increases in the payout ratio. Apple could, if management decides so, easily triple its payout ratio to 51%, which would, all else equal, lead to 200% dividend growth. This is, of course, not possible for a company like Altria, which has a payout ratio of around 80% already. When investing in a stock like Altria, investors know that dividend growth can only come from earnings per share growth, not from an increase in the dividend payout ratio.</p>\n<p>Apple's dividend looks also very safe when we consider cash flows. During the last four quarters, Apple generated free cash flow of $5.27 per share (per YCharts), its cash dividend payout ratio is thus 16.7% -- this is, again, indicating that Apple's dividend is very safe and that there is a lot of room for increases in the payout ratio.</p>\n<p>Even when we back out a stock's potential to raise the dividend payout ratio, the dividend growth outlook is very different for different companies. Some companies are growing quickly and will likely grow at a strong pace for many years, e.g. NVIDIA (NVDA), while other companies have a more challenging growth outlook, where investors may be happy if the company manages to outgrow inflation. Some consumer goods companies, such as Coca-Cola (KO) and Colgate-Palmolive (CL), fit the latter group, as they have not shown meaningful revenue or earnings growth in recent years -- but the stocks still have their fans.</p>\n<p>AAPL belongs, I believe, to the stocks that have a very solid dividend growth outlook. The low dividend payout ratio could easily be raised if management ever decides to accelerate dividend growth, and thanks to a very healthy earnings per share growth outlook, Apple should be able to raise its dividend considerably even if the dividend payout ratio is held constant at the current level:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3c6a0a84a6961be1a93720183a7bf34\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"453\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>AAPL is forecasted to grow its earnings per share by 3% in 2022 and 2023, respectively. This is, to be honest, not a great growth rate, but analysts also expect that earnings per share growth will accelerate to 13% a year in the long run. Estimates are sometimes a little too optimistic, but even if Apple's long-term EPS growth is a little lower than what analysts are forecasting right now, a high-single-digit to low-double-digit earnings per share growth rate seems achievable. Growth will stem from a combination of market growth (more people buy phones, wearables, and so on), price increases, growth for the services business, and the introduction of new products. The last point could become a quite meaningful growth driver, as Apple seeks to expand its position in health-focused hardware and services, while also coming out with its own car project towards the mid-2020s. Last but not least, Apple's buybacks also benefit AAPL's earnings per share growth, which is why I believe that a 7%-10% EPS growth rate seems very much achievable in the long run. It should be noted that tax law changes, e.g. a proposed tax treatment of buybacks that is equal to how dividends are taxed, could result in a marginally lower EPS growth rate due to reduced buyback activity. In that scenario, EPS growth might stay closer to the lower end of the indicated range, but even if tax laws change, this wouldn't have a dramatic effect on Apple's EPS growth, I believe.</p>\n<p>Let's assume that Apple grows its earnings per share by 8% a year over the next decade and that its dividend growth rate is held constant at 9.8% a year -- in line with AAPL's dividend growth over the last nine years. In that scenario, Apple's dividend payout ratio rises from 17% to 20% through 2031, which would still be a very low dividend payout ratio. The per-share dividend would rise to $0.56, for a dividend yield of 1.7% based on AAPL's current share price. If dividends are reinvested over those ten years, the dividend yield on cost rises to 1.8%. Is this attractive? You be the judge, but I think it isn't really outstanding.</p>\n<p>There is, of course, the possibility that management eventually decides to raise the dividend payout ratio dramatically. At a payout ratio of 50%, based on our EPS estimate for 2031, Apple's dividend yield would be north of 4%, and north of 5% with dividends reinvested. That would be more attractive for sure, especially when such a yield comes from a healthy global leader with a strong moat, such as Apple. But this scenario, of course, only comes to fruition if management increases the payout ratio meaningfully. If, however, Apple's management decides to keep dividend growth more or less in line with EPS growth, then the low yield today prevents investors from receiving a very high yield on cost in the future.</p>\n<p>To sum this section up, I'd say that Apple is not suitable for those that want a large income stream right now -- the current yield is just too low. For those that prioritize dividend growth and the potential for steep increases in the payout ratio, AAPL could be more suitable, although it is not an outrageously strong buy for those, either, I personally believe. Apple traded at a dividend yield of 1.5%-2% not too long ago, which would have made for a much better entry point. But today, with a yield of 0.7%, most of Apple's potential to generate returns for investors rests on future share price gains, as dividends will not have a very large impact. For a growth-focused dividend growth investor, that may still make for a solid choice, as share price gains are, of course, also a way to generate returns. But for a more traditional income approach, Apple seems not really suitable due to its lowish yield today. One should also consider the fact that its current valuation, at 25 times forward earnings, is above the historic valuation norm, which, again, indicates that right now may not be the best time to buy.</p>\n<p>This does, of course, not mean that someone who holds shares that were purchased at another time has to sell these shares. If, for example, a dividend investor entered a position five years ago at a split-adjusted price of $24, the yield on cost on that investment is just shy of 4% today, and even above that level if dividends were reinvested along the way. If someone holds shares of Apple that were bought at a lower price that's great, but buying today may not be the best idea. Waiting for a lower valuation and a higher starting dividend yield could pay off in the long run.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Is Apple Stock Good For A Dividend Portfolio?</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\">\nIs Apple Stock Good For A Dividend Portfolio?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-17 13:58 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435082-apple-stock-good-dividend-portfolio><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nApple has been a great performer in the past and has raised its dividend reliably at an attractive pace of almost 10%.\nThe current dividend yield is pretty low, but so is the dividend payout ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435082-apple-stock-good-dividend-portfolio\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"č¹ę"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435082-apple-stock-good-dividend-portfolio","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1162028530","content_text":"Summary\n\nApple has been a great performer in the past and has raised its dividend reliably at an attractive pace of almost 10%.\nThe current dividend yield is pretty low, but so is the dividend payout ratio.

This ability to raise dividends at a steep pace for a long period of time usually rests on two pillars, a low dividend payout ratio, and a strong earnings per share growth outlook.\nA low dividend payout ratio, e.g. Apple's dividend payout ratio of just 17% (based on 2021 EPS estimates), leaves a lot of room for dividend growth through increases in the payout ratio. Apple could, if management decides so, easily triple its payout ratio to 51%, which would, all else equal, lead to 200% dividend growth. This is, of course, not possible for a company like Altria, which has a payout ratio of around 80% already. When investing in a stock like Altria, investors know that dividend growth can only come from earnings per share growth, not from an increase in the dividend payout ratio.\nApple's dividend looks also very safe when we consider cash flows. During the last four quarters, Apple generated free cash flow of $5.27 per share (per YCharts), its cash dividend payout ratio is thus 16.7% -- this is, again, indicating that Apple's dividend is very safe and that there is a lot of room for increases in the payout ratio.\nEven when we back out a stock's potential to raise the dividend payout ratio, the dividend growth outlook is very different for different companies. Some companies are growing quickly and will likely grow at a strong pace for many years, e.g. NVIDIA (NVDA), while other companies have a more challenging growth outlook, where investors may be happy if the company manages to outgrow inflation. Some consumer goods companies, such as Coca-Cola (KO) and Colgate-Palmolive (CL), fit the latter group, as they have not shown meaningful revenue or earnings growth in recent years -- but the stocks still have their fans.\nAAPL belongs, I believe, to the stocks that have a very solid dividend growth outlook. The low dividend payout ratio could easily be raised if management ever decides to accelerate dividend growth, and thanks to a very healthy earnings per share growth outlook, Apple should be able to raise its dividend considerably even if the dividend payout ratio is held constant at the current level:\nData by YCharts\nAAPL is forecasted to grow its earnings per share by 3% in 2022 and 2023, respectively. This is, to be honest, not a great growth rate, but analysts also expect that earnings per share growth will accelerate to 13% a year in the long run. Estimates are sometimes a little too optimistic, but even if Apple's long-term EPS growth is a little lower than what analysts are forecasting right now, a high-single-digit to low-double-digit earnings per share growth rate seems achievable. Growth will stem from a combination of market growth (more people buy phones, wearables, and so on), price increases, growth for the services business, and the introduction of new products. The last point could become a quite meaningful growth driver, as Apple seeks to expand its position in health-focused hardware and services, while also coming out with its ownĀ car projectĀ towards the mid-2020s. Last but not least, Apple's buybacks also benefit AAPL's earnings per share growth, which is why I believe that a 7%-10% EPS growth rate seems very much achievable in the long run. It should be noted that tax law changes, e.g. a proposed tax treatment of buybacks that is equal to how dividends are taxed, could result in a marginally lower EPS growth rate due to reduced buyback activity. In that scenario, EPS growth might stay closer to the lower end of the indicated range, but even if tax laws change, this wouldn't have a dramatic effect on Apple's EPS growth, I believe.\nLet's assume that Apple grows its earnings per share by 8% a year over the next decade and that its dividend growth rate is held constant at 9.8% a year -- in line with AAPL's dividend growth over the last nine years. In that scenario, Apple's dividend payout ratio rises from 17% to 20% through 2031, which would still be a very low dividend payout ratio. The per-share dividend would rise to $0.56, for a dividend yield of 1.7% based on AAPL's current share price. If dividends are reinvested over those ten years, the dividend yield on cost rises to 1.8%. Is this attractive? You be the judge, but I think it isn't really outstanding.\nThere is, of course, the possibility that management eventually decides to raise the dividend payout ratio dramatically. At a payout ratio of 50%, based on our EPS estimate for 2031, Apple's dividend yield would be north of 4%, and north of 5% with dividends reinvested. That would be more attractive for sure, especially when such a yield comes from a healthy global leader with a strong moat, such as Apple. But this scenario, of course, only comes to fruition if management increases the payout ratio meaningfully. If, however, Apple's management decides to keep dividend growth more or less in line with EPS growth, then the low yield today prevents investors from receiving a very high yield on cost in the future.\nTo sum this section up, I'd say that Apple is not suitable for those that want a large income stream right now -- the current yield is just too low. For those that prioritize dividend growth and the potential for steep increases in the payout ratio, AAPL could be more suitable, although it is not an outrageously strong buy for those, either, I personally believe. Apple traded at a dividend yield of 1.5%-2% not too long ago, which would have made for a much better entry point. But today, with a yield of 0.7%, most of Apple's potential to generate returns for investors rests on future share price gains, as dividends will not have a very large impact. For a growth-focused dividend growth investor, that may still make for a solid choice, as share price gains are, of course, also a way to generate returns. But for a more traditional income approach, Apple seems not really suitable due to its lowish yield today. One should also consider the fact that its current valuation, at 25 times forward earnings, is above the historic valuation norm, which, again, indicates that right now may not be the best time to buy.\nThis does, of course, not mean that someone who holds shares that were purchased at another time has to sell these shares. If, for example, a dividend investor entered a position five years ago at a split-adjusted price of $24, the yield on cost on that investment is just shy of 4% today, and even above that level if dividends were reinvested along the way. If someone holds shares of Apple that were bought at a lower price that's great, but buying today may not be the best idea. Waiting for a lower valuation and a higher starting dividend yield could pay off in the long run.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":134,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":168387923,"gmtCreate":1623951072162,"gmtModify":1703824572919,"author":{"id":"3577278229480647","authorId":"3577278229480647","name":"ndreang","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577278229480647","authorIdStr":"3577278229480647"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Scalability needs to be addressed ","listText":"Scalability needs to be addressed ","text":"Scalability needs to be addressed","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/168387923","repostId":"1193159328","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1193159328","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623913694,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1193159328?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-17 15:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Reasons Palantir's Future Looks Bright","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1193159328","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Despite volatility in its stock, the data aggregation specialist looks poised for ongoing success.","content":"<p>The past several months have been a roller coaster for investors in data science software company <b>Palantir Technologies</b> (NYSE:PLTR).
