release of Q3 earnings.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/904fddfcbefd48866cac96d192a9f7c5\" alt=\"Seeking Alpha\" title=\"Seeking Alpha\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"199\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>With the company planning to release more details on potential partnerships with hyperscalers in the upcoming quarters, I considered reviewing in this article some of the arguments made by the CEO, Fred Thiel, against expanding into AI/HPC hosting independently, opting instead to pursue partnerships with big data center and cloud computing players.</p><p>I will advance in this introduction that I fully agree with his arguments, including the challenge of competing in price with hyperscalers like AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud once they have fully deployed their infrastructure over the next two years.</p><p>I will also discuss the company&#39;s expansion plans, including its technology advancements and energy strategy.</p><p>Overall, considering these factors and the company&#39;s attractive valuation ratios, I rate this stock as a strong buy. As a matter of fact, I have started a long position in this company, taking advantage of the pullback following Q3 earnings.</p><p>As always, I will include a risk section where I will discuss some factors that could potentially wipe out my investment (i.e. highly speculative bet) in this company.</p><h2 id=\"id_223380449\">CEO Skeptical About Entering AI/HPC Hosting Independently</h2><p>Fred Thiel emphasized during the last earnings call that the AI/HPC hosting market will soon face a &#34;race to the bottom&#34; in terms of costs and profits, as hyperscalers dominate.</p><blockquote><p>I think anybody else trying to go into this business today is looking at a <strong>race to the bottom</strong> from a cost perspective and a very challenging capital market, <strong>once people wake up to the fact of how difficult it really is to run an AI HPC hosting business when you&#39;re not a hyperscaler yourself.</strong></p></blockquote><p>One of the key points he mentioned was the decline in GPU rentals. He used the H100 rental prices as an example. The rental prices for this high-end GPU model from NVIDIA (widely used for AI workloads) have plummeted by 75% in six months.</p><p>He also mentioned another reason for his apparent hesitation about getting into AI/HPC hosting independently: the rapid obsolescence of GPU hosting for AI tasks.</p><blockquote><p>If you think that the technology obsolescence of Bitcoin mining is aggressive, welcome to the world of GPUs. It is even more aggressive. <strong>Anybody who comes from the Bitcoin mining side</strong>, <strong>who is excited about going into the hyperscaler or large-scale data center for AI HPC hosting business is in for what I believe will be an abrupt surprise</strong> come two or three years when the hyperscalers deployments of the data centers they have in production today start coming online</p></blockquote><p>Instead, I believe Mara will focus on partnerships with large-scale AI hyperscalers.</p><p>As the old saying goes, <em>if you can&#39;t beat them, join them.</em></p><p>These partnerships with hyperscalers would allow MARA to leverage its technology, such as 2PIC immersion cooling, and its expertise in low-cost energy generation to support the needs of hyperscalers.</p><p>Although no specific details have been announced about these partnerships, the company plans to announce more specific details in the upcoming quarters.</p><p>In my opinion, an official announcement of a partnership with a major hyperscaler could be a big catalyst for the company, especially if the share price keeps its current declining path until this event happens.</p><h2 id=\"id_3543266906\">Energy Strategy And 2PIC Technological Advancements</h2><p>In October, MARA launched a 25 MW microdata center operation with NGON across wellheads in Texas and North Dakota.</p><p>These data centers convert excess flared gas, (i.e. a waste by-product in oilfield operations) into electricity to power co-located data centers.</p><p>The benefit of using excess flared gas to generate electricity is a significant reduction in cost per kWh, from the typical market price paid by miners using grid energy of 4c/kWh, down to 1c/kWh.</p><p>Aside from cost benefits, this method is highly beneficial for the environment, with a 99% methane mitigation efficiency</p><p>This initiative is part of Mara&#39;s broader strategy to identify and develop sites with high potential for on-site power generation.</p><p>Additionally, in the last shareholder letter, the company mentioned its long-term goal of expanding its gas-to-power capacity to more than a gigawatt in the next few years.</p><blockquote><p>We believe MARA&#39;s ability to pair onsite demand to onsite power (fueled by low-cost natural gas) will unlock hundreds of MW-if not more than a GW-of low-cost and long-duration gas-to-power opportunities.</p></blockquote><p>Moving on with other initiatives, by the end of this year, Mara will have installed 40 2PIC tanks across its facilities, including the new one in Ohio.</p><p>What I find encouraging about this technology is the high-power density of 1MW that can be achieved per each 2PIC tank. As a matter of fact, 2PIC tanks can achieve up to four times the power density compared to traditional cooling methods.</p><p>As a side note, the 2PIC technology offers superior thermal management by submerging equipment in a dielectric fluid. This results in up to a 60% reduction in cooling energy costs.</p><p>Additionally, in the past quarter, Mara has secured its first commercial orders for its 2PIC tanks from third-party miners and data center operators. In my view, this is a strong indication of the benefits of this proprietary technology.</p><h2 id=\"id_2266397362\">Expect a 70% Increase in Computation Capacity By the End of 2025</h2><p>Since the beginning of 2024, Mara has secured about 1 GW of nameplate capacity through acquisitions and new developments.</p><p>The company&#39;s operational footprint now spans over 15 data centers across four continents, with plans to expand further in the Middle East and Africa.</p><p>As a matter of fact, the company&#39;s total owned and operated computing capacity is expected to increase by over 70% by the end of next year.</p><p>This includes two recent acquisitions in Ohio, along with the development of a 150 MW greenfield operation that will provide 372 MW of capacity by the end of 2025.</p><p>Salman Khan, the CFO of the company, mentioned during the last earnings conference a significant reduction in operating costs for one of the newly acquired centers.</p><blockquote><p>Owning the sites will provide us with greater operational control and could further reduce our operating costs at Hopedale data center, which is part of this acquisition, up to 50%.</p></blockquote><p>I believe they will mass deploy the 2PIC tanks at this facility to achieve this cost savings.</p><p>Aside from these acquisitions, the company has upgraded and expanded the capacity of five of its existing facilities: Ellendale and Jamestown, Garden City, the Wolf Hollow facility in Texas, and the Kearney facility in Nebraska.</p><p>Overall, the company expects to achieve a fleet efficiency of 19.5 J/TH by the end of 2024. To put things in perspective, this is a 14% improvement from last quarter&#39;s efficiency of 22.7 J/TH.</p><h2 id=\"id_4242130768\">Valuation</h2><p>Considering the 30% decline in the share price following the Q3 earnings release, most valuation ratios have cooled off to attractive levels when compared to some of its direct competitors.</p><p>An example is the price to sales ratio, which trades now below RIOT&#39;s value (see table below).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/df73a5159abd34150d2ddabd8da1b566\" alt=\"Seeking Alpha\" title=\"Seeking Alpha\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"335\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>Another example is the EV/EBITDA ratio (both FWD and TTM), with Mara&#39;s value being the lowest among its competitors.</p><p>The historical chart below shows that most of the company&#39;s valuation ratios are trading close to the 5-year minimum.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/eed3232f8b954b6e705198d4fbbce8d6\" alt=\"Stock Rover\" title=\"Stock Rover\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"372\"/><span>Stock Rover</span></p><p>Therefore, I believe there is solid evidence to suggest that Mara is undervalued at best, or fairly priced at worst.</p><h2 id=\"id_2910599084\">Risks</h2><p>I believe one of the biggest risks to my bull thesis, is the current negative sentiment surrounding the expansion into AI/HPC hosting.</p><p>As I already mentioned, I don&#39;t believe Mara will go into AI/HPC hosting independently. It all points out that the company will partner with hyperscalers.</p><p>However, considering that most of the shareholders support the company&#39;s Bitcoin mining operations, any news related to the expansion of their operations away from mining could drive a potential selloff.</p><p>Other risks include the high volatility of Bitcoin prices. At the end of last quarter, the company had over 27,000 BTC on its balance sheet. Therefore, a pullback in Bitcoin&#39;s price could erode the value of the company&#39;s assets.</p><p>Finally, I am not particularly encouraged by the recent dilution of shareholder value. In the past year, the company has raised a significant amount of capital ($1.5 billion TTM) by issuing shares.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/ea11ac894d859d7c2fa4bb85d8e65769\" alt=\"TradingView\" title=\"TradingView\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"98\"/><span>TradingView</span></p><p>The recent $850 million offering of zero-coupon convertible senior notes (due 2030) allows noteholders to convert their holdings into MARA&#39;s common stock under certain conditions. I have included here more details about this offering, although I believe this offering increases the risk of further dilution in the long term.</p><h2 id=\"id_2192525733\">Conclusion</h2><p>I rate this stock as a strong buy for highly speculative investors, like myself.</p><p>As we all know, Mara is the largest publicly traded miner in terms of market capitalization and hash rate. Therefore, I am highly encouraged by the company&#39;s decision to avoid jumping into the AI/HPC hosting business <strong>independently</strong> (emphasis on this last word), given the high obsolescence risks and low margins in this space once the hyperscalers fully deploy its infrastructure in the next 2 years.</p><p>Instead, Mara plans to partner with these hyperscalers (think of AWS, Microsoft, or Google), leveraging its advanced 2PIC cooling tanks and cheap energy solutions to support their infrastructure expansion.</p><p>Speaking about the company&#39;s energy strategy, its gas-to-power projects could cut power costs to just 1 cent per kWh. The company is scaling these projects, with a goal of exceeding 1 GW of low-cost energy capacity in the next years.</p><p>From an operational perspective, the recent acquisitions, combined with upgrades to existing facilities, are expected to increase the company&#39;s computing power by 70% by the end of 2025.</p><p>Even more encouraging is the potential for some of these facilities to cut in half their operating costs thanks to the company&#39;s 2PIC tanks.</p><p>Risks to my bull thesis include the negative shareholder sentiment to expand into AI/HPC hosting through partnerships with hyperscalers.</p><p>I think an official partnership announcement could upset investors focused solely on its mining operations. On top of that, I believe that the current dilution could continue into 2025, which could weigh on the share price.</p><p>However, I believe the company&#39;s low valuation ratios compared to its peers, combined with its growth rate and technological advantages, make it a strong buy. Nonetheless, this is a speculative play, which could take several years to potentially yield positive results.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

As a matter of fact, I have started a long position in this company, taking advantage of the pullback following Q3 earnings.As always, I will include a risk section where I will discuss some factors that could potentially wipe out my investment (i.e. highly speculative bet) in this company.CEO Skeptical About Entering AI/HPC Hosting IndependentlyFred Thiel emphasized during the last earnings call that the AI/HPC hosting market will soon face a \"race to the bottom\" in terms of costs and profits, as hyperscalers dominate.I think anybody else trying to go into this business today is looking at a race to the bottom from a cost perspective and a very challenging capital market, once people wake up to the fact of how difficult it really is to run an AI HPC hosting business when you're not a hyperscaler yourself.One of the key points he mentioned was the decline in GPU rentals. He used the H100 rental prices as an example. The rental prices for this high-end GPU model from NVIDIA (widely used for AI workloads) have plummeted by 75% in six months.He also mentioned another reason for his apparent hesitation about getting into AI/HPC hosting independently: the rapid obsolescence of GPU hosting for AI tasks.If you think that the technology obsolescence of Bitcoin mining is aggressive, welcome to the world of GPUs. It is even more aggressive. Anybody who comes from the Bitcoin mining side, who is excited about going into the hyperscaler or large-scale data center for AI HPC hosting business is in for what I believe will be an abrupt surprise come two or three years when the hyperscalers deployments of the data centers they have in production today start coming onlineInstead, I believe Mara will focus on partnerships with large-scale AI hyperscalers.As the old saying goes, if you can't beat them, join them.These partnerships with hyperscalers would allow MARA to leverage its technology, such as 2PIC immersion cooling, and its expertise in low-cost energy generation to support the needs of hyperscalers.Although no specific details have been announced about these partnerships, the company plans to announce more specific details in the upcoming quarters.In my opinion, an official announcement of a partnership with a major hyperscaler could be a big catalyst for the company, especially if the share price keeps its current declining path until this event happens.Energy Strategy And 2PIC Technological AdvancementsIn October, MARA launched a 25 MW microdata center operation with NGON across wellheads in Texas and North Dakota.These data centers convert excess flared gas, (i.e. a waste by-product in oilfield operations) into electricity to power co-located data centers.The benefit of using excess flared gas to generate electricity is a significant reduction in cost per kWh, from the typical market price paid by miners using grid energy of 4c/kWh, down to 1c/kWh.Aside from cost benefits, this method is highly beneficial for the environment, with a 99% methane mitigation efficiencyThis initiative is part of Mara's broader strategy to identify and develop sites with high potential for on-site power generation.Additionally, in the last shareholder letter, the company mentioned its long-term goal of expanding its gas-to-power capacity to more than a gigawatt in the next few years.We believe MARA's ability to pair onsite demand to onsite power (fueled by low-cost natural gas) will unlock hundreds of MW-if not more than a GW-of low-cost and long-duration gas-to-power opportunities.Moving on with other initiatives, by the end of this year, Mara will have installed 40 2PIC tanks across its facilities, including the new one in Ohio.What I find encouraging about this technology is the high-power density of 1MW that can be achieved per each 2PIC tank. As a matter of fact, 2PIC tanks can achieve up to four times the power density compared to traditional cooling methods.As a side note, the 2PIC technology offers superior thermal management by submerging equipment in a dielectric fluid. This results in up to a 60% reduction in cooling energy costs.Additionally, in the past quarter, Mara has secured its first commercial orders for its 2PIC tanks from third-party miners and data center operators. In my view, this is a strong indication of the benefits of this proprietary technology.Expect a 70% Increase in Computation Capacity By the End of 2025Since the beginning of 2024, Mara has secured about 1 GW of nameplate capacity through acquisitions and new developments.The company's operational footprint now spans over 15 data centers across four continents, with plans to expand further in the Middle East and Africa.As a matter of fact, the company's total owned and operated computing capacity is expected to increase by over 70% by the end of next year.This includes two recent acquisitions in Ohio, along with the development of a 150 MW greenfield operation that will provide 372 MW of capacity by the end of 2025.Salman Khan, the CFO of the company, mentioned during the last earnings conference a significant reduction in operating costs for one of the newly acquired centers.Owning the sites will provide us with greater operational control and could further reduce our operating costs at Hopedale data center, which is part of this acquisition, up to 50%.I believe they will mass deploy the 2PIC tanks at this facility to achieve this cost savings.Aside from these acquisitions, the company has upgraded and expanded the capacity of five of its existing facilities: Ellendale and Jamestown, Garden City, the Wolf Hollow facility in Texas, and the Kearney facility in Nebraska.Overall, the company expects to achieve a fleet efficiency of 19.5 J/TH by the end of 2024. To put things in perspective, this is a 14% improvement from last quarter's efficiency of 22.7 J/TH.ValuationConsidering the 30% decline in the share price following the Q3 earnings release, most valuation ratios have cooled off to attractive levels when compared to some of its direct competitors.An example is the price to sales ratio, which trades now below RIOT's value (see table below).Seeking AlphaAnother example is the EV/EBITDA ratio (both FWD and TTM), with Mara's value being the lowest among its competitors.The historical chart below shows that most of the company's valuation ratios are trading close to the 5-year minimum.Stock RoverTherefore, I believe there is solid evidence to suggest that Mara is undervalued at best, or fairly priced at worst.RisksI believe one of the biggest risks to my bull thesis, is the current negative sentiment surrounding the expansion into AI/HPC hosting.As I already mentioned, I don't believe Mara will go into AI/HPC hosting independently. It all points out that the company will partner with hyperscalers.However, considering that most of the shareholders support the company's Bitcoin mining operations, any news related to the expansion of their operations away from mining could drive a potential selloff.Other risks include the high volatility of Bitcoin prices. At the end of last quarter, the company had over 27,000 BTC on its balance sheet. Therefore, a pullback in Bitcoin's price could erode the value of the company's assets.Finally, I am not particularly encouraged by the recent dilution of shareholder value. In the past year, the company has raised a significant amount of capital ($1.5 billion TTM) by issuing shares.TradingViewThe recent $850 million offering of zero-coupon convertible senior notes (due 2030) allows noteholders to convert their holdings into MARA's common stock under certain conditions. I have included here more details about this offering, although I believe this offering increases the risk of further dilution in the long term.ConclusionI rate this stock as a strong buy for highly speculative investors, like myself.As we all know, Mara is the largest publicly traded miner in terms of market capitalization and hash rate. Therefore, I am highly encouraged by the company's decision to avoid jumping into the AI/HPC hosting business independently (emphasis on this last word), given the high obsolescence risks and low margins in this space once the hyperscalers fully deploy its infrastructure in the next 2 years.Instead, Mara plans to partner with these hyperscalers (think of AWS, Microsoft, or Google), leveraging its advanced 2PIC cooling tanks and cheap energy solutions to support their infrastructure expansion.Speaking about the company's energy strategy, its gas-to-power projects could cut power costs to just 1 cent per kWh. The company is scaling these projects, with a goal of exceeding 1 GW of low-cost energy capacity in the next years.From an operational perspective, the recent acquisitions, combined with upgrades to existing facilities, are expected to increase the company's computing power by 70% by the end of 2025.Even more encouraging is the potential for some of these facilities to cut in half their operating costs thanks to the company's 2PIC tanks.Risks to my bull thesis include the negative shareholder sentiment to expand into AI/HPC hosting through partnerships with hyperscalers.I think an official partnership announcement could upset investors focused solely on its mining operations. On top of that, I believe that the current dilution could continue into 2025, which could weigh on the share price.However, I believe the company's low valuation ratios compared to its peers, combined with its growth rate and technological advantages, make it a strong buy. Nonetheless, this is a speculative play, which could take several years to potentially yield positive results.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":241607420219448,"gmtCreate":1700014575458,"gmtModify":1700014578136,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/G13.SI\">$Genting Sing(G13.SI)$&nbsp;</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>to the moon!","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/G13.SI\">$Genting Sing(G13.SI)$&nbsp;</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>to the moon!","text":"$Genting Sing(G13.SI)$ to the moon!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/241607420219448","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":372,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":238578104967464,"gmtCreate":1699276087697,"gmtModify":1699276090129,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/C6L.SI\">$SINGAPORE AIRLINES LTD(C6L.SI)$&nbsp;</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>to the moon!","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/C6L.SI\">$SINGAPORE AIRLINES LTD(C6L.SI)$&nbsp;</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>to the moon!","text":"$SINGAPORE AIRLINES LTD(C6L.SI)$ to the moon!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/238578104967464","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":422,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":236349279604912,"gmtCreate":1698735155912,"gmtModify":1698735159029,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","listText":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","text":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/236349279604912","repostId":"234535750438912","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":234535750438912,"gmtCreate":1698286744059,"gmtModify":1698286744106,"author":{"id":"4103332230805300","authorId":"4103332230805300","name":"Smartkarma","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/39fffba2ff205c2730b5bf07e3de6647","crmLevel":0,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4103332230805300","authorIdStr":"4103332230805300"},"themes":[],"title":"SIA Placement Lockup - Time for Another Trim of Its US$7bn Stake","htmlText":"⬇ $Singapore Airlines(C6L.SI)$ - Temasek raised around US$300m via its secondary selldown in Singapore Airlines (SIA SP) in Jun 2023.

Even though the 23 big banks subject to testing hold about 20% of office and downtown commercial real estate and would suffer heavy losses of $541 billion overall, they would still be able to continue lending and remain above their minimum capital requirements. Commercial real estate and residential mortgage lending losses were projected at around $100 billion, while credit card losses would come in at roughly $120 billion.

However, many tech stocks took somewhat of a breather after strong gains in the recent past, allowing some other sectors of the market to lead Wall Street higher.Investors paid close attention to the results of the Federal Reserve's stress test on banks. With favorable conclusions, many investors who look to financial stocks as sources of generous levels of dividend income are hopeful that they could see payout increases in the days to come. Here's more on what the results of the Fed stress tests were and why some bank stocks in particular are getting votes of confidence from the investing community on Thursday.The Fed's seal of approvalThe Federal Reserve released the findings of its annual bank stress tests late Wednesday. The conclusion it drew was that the banking system in general and large banks in particular are well-situated to handle a severe recession, and that they would be able to maintain healthy levels of lending to both individuals and businesses under tough macroeconomic conditions.The assumptions that the Fed used anticipated a severe global recession in which commercial real estate prices would plunge 40%, with a substantial increase in office vacancies. Housing prices would plummet 38%, while unemployment would nearly triple to 10%. The result would be a massive drop in economic output.The Fed's findings were interesting. Even though the 23 big banks subject to testing hold about 20% of office and downtown commercial real estate and would suffer heavy losses of $541 billion overall, they would still be able to continue lending and remain above their minimum capital requirements. Commercial real estate and residential mortgage lending losses were projected at around $100 billion, while credit card losses would come in at roughly $120 billion. The Fed also introduced new tests that looked at the trading books of financial institutions, concluding that rising rates wouldn't be catastrophic for big banks.Are dividend increases coming?Now, investors are looking to see how financial institutions will respond to the results. Many of those focused on dividend stocks hope that the banks will follow past practice and approve dividend increases for shareholders.That would be consistent with past practice. Within days of the 2022 stress test results getting released, Wells Fargo (WFC 4.16%), Bank of America (BAC 2.23%), Morgan Stanley (MS 1.66%), and Goldman Sachs (GS 3.19%) boosted their quarterly payouts. Increases ranged from modest hikes of around 5% from Bank of America to as much as 25% from Goldman Sachs.However, investors shouldn't take it as a guarantee that higher dividends will come from all banks. For instance, JPMorgan Chase (JPM 3.19%) left its dividend unchanged at $1 per share quarterly even after last year's stress tests, as it found capital requirements onerous enough not to want to take chances with a higher payout. Similarly, Citigroup (C 0.37%) hasn't increased its dividend since 2019, even when it has done reasonably well on stress tests.Still, bank shareholders seem excited about the news. At midday Thursday, Wells Fargo stock was up 4%, while JPMorgan and Goldman managed 3% gains and BofA and Morgan Stanley picked up 2% each. With the big banks already carrying dividend yields of around 3% to 4%, any further increase would only make the stocks that much more attractive to income-oriented investors.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":614,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187931371315328,"gmtCreate":1686907205221,"gmtModify":1686909069778,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Evil morgan!","listText":"Evil morgan!","text":"Evil morgan!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187931371315328","repostId":"1182870538","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":713,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187883621634312,"gmtCreate":1686897652070,"gmtModify":1686897657067,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Charged!!!!!!

Morgan Stanley raised its target price by 16.8% to S$7.30 after switching its valuation framework.“Our bull case assumes cargo yields stabilize at current levels and costs remain well controlled, driving operating leverage and earnings growth of 15% in FY24,” Morgan Stanley said. “In such a scenario, the stock could continue to re-rate, and we assume a 5% premium over our base case” to a bull case of S$9.30.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":512,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184390599442464,"gmtCreate":1686041614612,"gmtModify":1686041619217,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"To the moon","listText":"To the moon","text":"To the moon","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/184390599442464","repostId":"2341330488","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2341330488","pubTimestamp":1686041215,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2341330488?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-06-06 16:46","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Airlines Are Bracing For Record Summer Travel; Golden Opportunity For Investors?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2341330488","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryAirlines for America predicts a 9.5% increase in airline passenger volumes this summer, surpa","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Summary</h2><ul><li><p>Airlines for America predicts a 9.5% increase in airline passenger volumes this summer, surpassing summer 2019 levels by around 2 million passengers.</p></li><li><p>To meet demand, airlines will employ larger aircraft and increase capacity by adding approximately 297,000 seats per day, reaching a daily average of nearly 3.4 million seats.</p></li><li><p>Shares of U.S. airlines have soared over 27% so far this year, with standout performers including United Airlines and American Airlines.</p></li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/74e479696063874549a605e6dbebefe4\" alt=\"aapsky/iStock via Getty Images\" title=\"aapsky/iStock via Getty Images\" tg-width=\"750\" tg-height=\"500\"/><span>aapsky/iStock via Getty Images</span></p><p>If current forecasts are accurate, this summer could mark a historic high in airline passenger volumes. The industry group Airlines for America (A4A) predicts that approximately 257 million people will travel on U.S. commercial airlines from June 1 to August 31, representing a 9.5% increase from the previous summer. That would also set a new record, as volumes are projected to surpass the summer 2019 levels by around 2 million passengers.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c3bd60646e26750764828090558b6a4f\" alt=\"U.S. Global Investors\" title=\"U.S. Global Investors\" tg-width=\"900\" tg-height=\"404\"/><span>U.S. Global Investors</span></p><p>To meet demand, airlines will employ larger aircraft and increase capacity by adding approximately 297,000 seats per day. A4A expects the daily average of seats this summer will reach nearly 3.4 million, an increase from 3.3 million per day during the summer of 2019. This translates to an estimated 137 seats per flight, representing a 14% rise compared to four years ago.</p><p>A4A wasn’t the only airlines industry group to issue a positive forecast for 2023. On Monday, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) raised its global airline profit outlook to $9.8 billion by year-end, more than double the previous forecast of $4.7 billion. The group expects around 4.35 billion people to fly commercial in 2023, or about 96% of 2019 levels.</p><p>Memorial Day weekend is typically viewed as the informal launch of the busy summer travel season, and this year was no different. According to data from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), some 9.8 million people flew on commercial airlines in the U.S. from Friday to Monday of the Memorial Day weekend. This figure is slightly higher than the 9.7 million who traveled during the same holiday weekend in 2019.</p><h2>Rise In Leisure Travel Offsets Slow Recovery Of Business Travel</h2><p>I should point out that we’re seeing these new record volumes despite the fact that business travel has yet to recover to pre-pandemic levels.</p><p>Leisure travel, though, is hot right now, even with recession storm clouds gathering on the horizon. A survey conducted in late April and early May by luxury retailer Saks found that more than three quarters (77%) of American adults had plans to book or had already booked a trip in the next three months. Of those, 74% said they would buy luxury items during their trip.</p><h2>American Airlines Raises Q2 Guidance Amid Strong Demand And Lower Fuel Costs</h2><p>American Airlines, the world’s largest airline by passengers carried, upgraded its guidance for the second quarter based on what it sees as “continued strength in the demand environment.” In a regulatory filing last week, American said it now forecasts quarterly earnings per share to fall within the $1.45 to $1.65 range, an increase from its previous estimate of $1.20 to $1.40 per share.</p><p>The revision is based on not only stronger-than-expected demand but also lower fuel costs. The carrier estimates it paid between $2.55 and $2.65 per gallon on average during the quarter, or $0.10 less per gallon than its initial forecast. Fuel consumption is also down compared to years past since American is flying larger aircraft that can accommodate more passengers per flight; this approach is more efficient than operating smaller jets with fewer passengers.</p><p>Investors appear to have recognized airlines’ versatility and ability to raise capacity to meet demand. Shares of U.S. airlines have soared over 27% so far this year, more than double what the S&amp;P 500 has returned. Standout performers include United Airlines, up 27% for the year, and American, up 17%. Among the Big Four carriers, Southwest Airlines is the only one to trade in the red, as it continues to face challenges after its network meltdown during Christmas 2022.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bef7800208641e3bfc6dbab387b3aaa5\" alt=\"U.S. Global Investors\" title=\"U.S. Global Investors\" tg-width=\"900\" tg-height=\"386\"/><span>U.S. Global Investors</span></p><h2>Depressed PMIs, Falling Commodity Prices And Election-Year Investment Prospects</h2><p>A possible headwind to continued economic growth could be the depressed purchasing manager’s indexes (PMIs). In May, the Eurozone Manufacturing PMI fell to 44.8 from 45.8 in April, the steepest contraction in three years. The U.S. Manufacturing PMI also shrank in May, sliding to 48.4 from a neutral 50.2 in April. The JPMorgan Global Manufacturing PMI recorded 49.6, just below the threshold and little changed from March and April.</p><p>China was the only major economy to report month-on-month expansion in its manufacturing sector. The Caixin PMI of private Chinese firms was 50.9 in May, marking the first positive reading in three months. (China’s official state-run PMI, however, fell to 48.8 in May.)</p><p>Widespread manufacturing weakness helps explain why commodity prices have plunged this year. The energy-heavy S&amp;P GSCI lost ground for the seventh straight month in May, a streak we haven’t seen since 2014 when oil collapsed. Year-to-date, the index of raw materials is down nearly 12%.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cca434500f47e7180dc13529da597009\" alt=\"U.S. Global Investors\" title=\"U.S. Global Investors\" tg-width=\"900\" tg-height=\"458\"/><span>U.S. Global Investors</span></p><p>The drop in commodity prices is obviously good for consumers as well as companies, particularly those involved in shipping and transportation.</p><p>I believe it could also be good for investors.

A strong year on year net profit growth for all three banks allowed them to record historic levels of net profit.Looking at the percentage increases, UOB is the winner in this round as total income, profit before allowance, and net profit all increased at the fastest pace among the trio.This outstanding performance may also be tied to its recent acquisition of Citigroup’s (NYSE: C) consumer banking division which is now being slowly integrated into the group’s results.Winner: UOBNIMs and loan growthMoving on to the net interest margin (NIM), the surge in interest rates has helped to lift all three banks’ NIM to above 2%, levels that have not been seen in a while.Although DBS Group has the lowest NIM of the three, it was the only bank to have displayed quarter-on-quarter growth in NIM, going from 2.05% to 2.12%.The other two banks saw NIM dip slightly. UOB’s NIM fell by 0.08 percentage points to 2.14% from 4Q 2022 while OCBC’s slid just 0.01 percentage points to 2.3%.This slight dip suggests that NIMs may have peaked for both UOB and OCBC, while there may still be some NIM upside for DBS Group.For loan growth, all three banks displayed relatively flat loan growth but DBS Group takes the cake here with a 0.2% year on year increase in its loan book.Winner: DBS GroupCost-to-income ratioThe cost-to-income ratio measures how efficiently a bank is run by comparing its expenses base to its total income.OCBC has shown an amazing ability to reduce its cost base with its cost-to-income ratio jumping from 43.3% in 4Q 2022 to 37.1%, making it the lowest among the three.It was also the largest improvement among the trio on a year on year basis as OCBC’s cost-to-income ratio stood at 45.6% in 1Q 2022.Winner: OCBCReturn on equityNext, we look at the important return on equity (ROE) metric that measures the profitability of each bank relative to its equity base.DBS easily takes the trophy here with an ROE of 18.6%, with UOB and OCBC coming in relatively close to each other at 14.9% and 14.7%, respectively.It should be noted that DBS’s ROE was already the highest in the prior quarter (4Q 2022) at 17.2%), but it has continued to maintain its lead as we head into 1Q 2023.Winner: DBS GroupNon-performing loans (NPL) ratioAs higher interest rates tend to dampen consumer spending and raise the probability of bad loans, we took a look at each bank’s non-performing loans (NPL) ratio.DBS also comes up as the winner here with a consistently low NPL ratio of 1.1% which is down from the prior year’s 1.3%.OCBC also fared well by reducing its NPL ratio to be on par with DBS Group, but its prior 4Q 2022’s NPL ratio was slightly higher than DBS at 1.2%.Winner: DBS GroupValuationAn analysis of the three banks would not be complete without a look at their valuations.Based on the price-to-book (P/B) for each bank, OCBC once again emerges as the cheapest of the trio at just 1.06 P/B.DBS is, as usual, the most expensive once again at 1.45 P/B while UOB is sandwiched in the middle with a 1.11 P/B.Winner: OCBCGet Smart: Other considerationsIt seems DBS has won this round with three attributes coming up tops, compared with two for OCBC and one for UOB.Of course, investors need to consider other factors too when evaluating all three lenders.For instance, DBS Group also pays out a quarterly dividend of S$0.42 per share.Income-seeking investors could view this aspect favourably when considering which bank to buy as Singapore’s largest bank is the only bank to dole out quarterly dividends.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":384,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9970868433,"gmtCreate":1684287397322,"gmtModify":1684287400903,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V

For the quarter, CGS-CIMB forecasts SIAEC to report a 95% y-o-y growth in net profit to $19 million, driven by slight improvement in operating loss and continued associates recovery.

For the quarter, CGS-CIMB forecasts SIAEC to report a 95% y-o-y growth in net profit to $19 million, driven by slight improvement in operating loss and continued associates recovery. The analysts also see strong growth for topline and associates as flight volumes at Changi Airport continue to recover.Staff costs, however, are expected to remain high at $122 million, a 34% increase y-o-y, continuing to be a drag on earnings. “While we do see a near y-o-y doubling in 4QFY2023 net profit, we expect net profit margin to stay weak at 8.6%,” they add.The analysts also highlight that labour shortages would be an ongoing concern in the industry. For one, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) provider Lufthansa Technik in its FY2022 results mentioned labour shortage as a key near-term challenge faced, expecting it to persist in 2023 and beyond.Aircraft engine supplier Rolls-Royce sees a similar situation, with the whole industry facing challenges in tackling labour shortage issues as flight volumes recover, the analysts add. “We see a similar tone from Oliver Wyman’s 2023 MRO outlook — the group expects mechanic headcount deficits to linger or grow over the next ten years.”To this end, CGS-CIMB believes that SIAEC will continue to face labour issues in the medium-term, given skilled workers leaving and not returning to Singapore and the time lag to develop a pipeline of young technicians.Tan and Lim have maintained “hold” on SIAEC with a target price of $2.42.As at 10.04am, shares in SIAEC are trading 3 cents lower or 1.31% down at $2.25.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":273,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9941143243,"gmtCreate":1680079260183,"gmtModify":1680079264532,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9941143243","repostId":"1128519490","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1128519490","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1680078825,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1128519490?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-29 16:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Crypto Shares Gained in Premarket Trading, With Marathon Digital Surging over 8%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1128519490","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Crypto shares gained in premarket trading.Marathon Digital rose over 8%; Riot Blockchain rose over 7","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Crypto shares gained in premarket trading.</p><p>Marathon Digital rose over 8%; Riot Blockchain rose over 7%; Canaan rose over 5%; Coinbase rose over 3%.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/76266bac36fc2298690380fec40edd4e\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"426\" tg-height=\"441\"/></p><p>Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies jumped Wednesday, rebounding from a selloff this week amid regulatory pressures on industry giant Binance and returning to a bullish streak that has defined trading for much of the year.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The price of Bitcoin has risen 6% over the past 24 hours to $28,500, a level reached last week for the first time since June 2022, when the crypto crash accelerated with a string of business failures across the sector.</p><p>“Investors’ appetite for a bit more risk is returning,” said Susannah Streeter, an analyst at broker Hargreaves Lansdown. “There are growing expectations that the Federal Reserve may hike interest rates again at the next meeting, but it’s still believed to be close to the summit of peak rates, particularly as banking lending is expected to tighten, causing a drag on the economy.”</p><p>Indeed, Bitcoin has led stocks higher in recent weeks—outperforming the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&amp;P 500 —amid expectations that the Fed will become more accommodative on monetary policy.

Don't miss these three must-have tech stocks.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Retirement may be just around the corner, or decades away. Either way, you&#39;re ready to start building a portfolio of top tech stocks that could help make you rich before you collect that gold watch to enjoy those golden years.</p><p>I have some ideas to get you started on that road to retirement prosperity. Of course, reaching this goal will be easier if you have many years left before cashing your final paycheck, but the stocks below should have enough giddy-up to make a serious difference even if your time horizon if five years or less.</p><p>So let&#39;s get going. Have you considered chip designer <b>Advanced Micro Devices</b> (AMD -2.32%), media-streaming technologist <b>Roku</b> (ROKU -5.06%), and e-commerce platform provider <b>Shopify</b> (SHOP -1.77%) yet? Each one of these robust companies is a leader in its industry of choice. All three are poised to deliver wealth-building gains for patient investors.</p><h2>AMD: premium price for premium results</h2><p>AMD used to be the eternal runner-up to sector leader <b>Intel</b> (INTC 1.14%), but the game is changing before our eyes. Intel still puts up stiff competition and AMD also faces head-to-head challenges from fellow growth phenom <b>Nvidia</b> (NVDA -1.51%) in some markets, but the company enjoys strong demand for its products from gamers and data center operators anyhow.</p><p>This company has several factors working in its favor. CEO Lisa Su is widely regarded as a visionary leader who has turned the company around from the brink of irrelevancy. Under her steady hand, AMD has made significant progress in launching consistently successful products and managing its formerly brittle financial platform.</p><p>Furthermore, the recent buyout of embedded chip veteran Xilinx gave AMD access to new technologies such as reprogrammable chip layouts and low-power computing platforms. Xilinx also added tons of greenfield customers to AMD&#39;s Rolodex, with the possibility of cross-selling chips between the two relatively separate client lists. In the long run, the $50 billion Xilinx deal could be as game-changing as the $5.6 billion ATI acquisition of 2006, which signaled the start of AMD&#39;s graphics processor business.</p><p>AMD also has a strong financial position with solid cash flows and just $2.5 billion of long-term debt, which gives it the flexibility to invest in more growth opportunities. The stock is a bit pricey, trading at 110 times trailing earnings and 50 times free cash flows, but investors embrace the premium price due to a strong track record of innovation and soaring sales. In that light, die-hard growth investors could call AMD a steal today.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9b6ecb71323c436c9be336b27c87990e\" tg-width=\"1015\" tg-height=\"727\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>AMD Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts</p><h2>Roku&#39;s budding media empire</h2><p>Roku&#39;s user-friendly media-streaming hardware and software is finding its way into homes around the globe. Nobody can match the company&#39;s market footprint in the trend-setting North American market, and Roku is actively expanding its reach into other geographic areas these days.</p><p>TV shows and movies have leading roles in the entertainment industry, which is shifting away from broadcast and cable TV in favor of digital media streams everywhere. Roku&#39;s target market is already massive and constantly growing. By 2030 or so, the company should own a meaningful slice of the streaming platform market in every world economy large enough to move the needle for a global media giant, with the probable exceptions of China and Russia.</p><p>Roku is making some seriously smart moves to expand its business operations and keep shareholders happy. For starters, the company runs a successful advertising service, so that more and more advertisers can reach the large and engaged audience that watches its streaming service.</p><p>That business is suffering deeper revenue cuts than the economy as a whole during this inflation crisis, as ad buyers expect low returns on their invested ad dollars in this market. However, Roku&#39;s ad business is sure to escape from the doldrums over time, unlocking another potentially massive revenue stream&#39;s full potential. The headwind should turn into a tailwind when the inflation crisis finally fades out.</p><p>The company also produces some of its own content for the Roku TV service, aiming to keep viewers hooked with a direct tie-in to the aforementioned ad service. And to top it off, Roku is expanding its international presence by launching its streaming service in new countries such as Brazil, Germany, and the UK.</p><p>All in all, Roku is a well-run company with impressive market ambitions. Yet, the stock price is down 81% in 18 months as Roku bears focused on the limited ad business and high-flying stock price. I am convinced that the price correction went too far by a long shot, giving investors a buying opportunity that should not be missed. After all, Roku is one of the binge-worthiest picks in the flourishing streaming industry.</p><h2>Shopify: retail therapy for your portfolio</h2><p>And then there&#39;s Shopify, the champ of e-commerce tools for small and medium businesses. People are getting comfortable with shopping online, and Shopify leads the charge in providing handy e-commerce tools for retailers of every stripe. The company&#39;s cloud-based shopping platform helps businesses set up and manage their online stores, quickly and easily. The package also includes payment and shipping services as well as a full set of marketing tools. Shopify is a one-stop shop for modern entrepreneurs.</p><p>Shopify has been delivering impressive revenue growth and profits. Fourth-quarter sales rose 25.7% year over year despite the ongoing inflation challenges.</p><p>The company is investing heavily in new markets and technologies to maintain its market-defining leadership in any economy. As a result, Shopify has deep-rooted partnerships with major retail and e-commerce players like <b>Amazon</b>, <b>Google</b> and <b>Walmart</b>, as well as a steady stream of new features. Shopify&#39;s innovations keep making it easier for businesses to find more customers and sell more goods online.</p><p>The company&#39;s culture of innovation and creativity is the very heart of this juggernaut. It wants to make the online shopping experience more personalized, more engaging, and more fun, giving consumers all the more reason to fill those online shopping baskets. In turn, happy customers will inspire more retailers to sign up for Shopify&#39;s tools and services. And the fast-growing customer base -- currently at 2.1 million daily active businesses serving 218 million consumers over the last year -- proves that Shopify&#39;s business plan is working.</p><p>With its impressive track record of rapid growth and game-changing innovation, this e-commerce champion should deliver pocket-padding shareholder returns over the long haul.</p><h2>Diversify your portfolio with these winners</h2><p>I&#39;m not saying that Roku, AMD, and Shopify are birds of a feather. I get it. You might think I&#39;m comparing an apple, an orange, and a banana here. But these diverse companies still have many shareholder-friendly qualities in common. Thanks to these positive attributes, one or more of them may be a good fit for your retirement portfolio.</p><p>They have strong management teams that know how to execute growth plans and deliver value to shareholders.

Either way, you're ready to start building a portfolio of top tech stocks that could help make you rich before you collect that gold watch to enjoy those golden years.I have some ideas to get you started on that road to retirement prosperity. Of course, reaching this goal will be easier if you have many years left before cashing your final paycheck, but the stocks below should have enough giddy-up to make a serious difference even if your time horizon if five years or less.So let's get going. Have you considered chip designer Advanced Micro Devices (AMD -2.32%), media-streaming technologist Roku (ROKU -5.06%), and e-commerce platform provider Shopify (SHOP -1.77%) yet? Each one of these robust companies is a leader in its industry of choice. All three are poised to deliver wealth-building gains for patient investors.AMD: premium price for premium resultsAMD used to be the eternal runner-up to sector leader Intel (INTC 1.14%), but the game is changing before our eyes. Intel still puts up stiff competition and AMD also faces head-to-head challenges from fellow growth phenom Nvidia (NVDA -1.51%) in some markets, but the company enjoys strong demand for its products from gamers and data center operators anyhow.This company has several factors working in its favor. CEO Lisa Su is widely regarded as a visionary leader who has turned the company around from the brink of irrelevancy. Under her steady hand, AMD has made significant progress in launching consistently successful products and managing its formerly brittle financial platform.Furthermore, the recent buyout of embedded chip veteran Xilinx gave AMD access to new technologies such as reprogrammable chip layouts and low-power computing platforms. Xilinx also added tons of greenfield customers to AMD's Rolodex, with the possibility of cross-selling chips between the two relatively separate client lists. In the long run, the $50 billion Xilinx deal could be as game-changing as the $5.6 billion ATI acquisition of 2006, which signaled the start of AMD's graphics processor business.AMD also has a strong financial position with solid cash flows and just $2.5 billion of long-term debt, which gives it the flexibility to invest in more growth opportunities. The stock is a bit pricey, trading at 110 times trailing earnings and 50 times free cash flows, but investors embrace the premium price due to a strong track record of innovation and soaring sales. In that light, die-hard growth investors could call AMD a steal today.AMD Revenue (TTM) data by YChartsRoku's budding media empireRoku's user-friendly media-streaming hardware and software is finding its way into homes around the globe. Nobody can match the company's market footprint in the trend-setting North American market, and Roku is actively expanding its reach into other geographic areas these days.TV shows and movies have leading roles in the entertainment industry, which is shifting away from broadcast and cable TV in favor of digital media streams everywhere. Roku's target market is already massive and constantly growing. By 2030 or so, the company should own a meaningful slice of the streaming platform market in every world economy large enough to move the needle for a global media giant, with the probable exceptions of China and Russia.Roku is making some seriously smart moves to expand its business operations and keep shareholders happy. For starters, the company runs a successful advertising service, so that more and more advertisers can reach the large and engaged audience that watches its streaming service.That business is suffering deeper revenue cuts than the economy as a whole during this inflation crisis, as ad buyers expect low returns on their invested ad dollars in this market. However, Roku's ad business is sure to escape from the doldrums over time, unlocking another potentially massive revenue stream's full potential. The headwind should turn into a tailwind when the inflation crisis finally fades out.The company also produces some of its own content for the Roku TV service, aiming to keep viewers hooked with a direct tie-in to the aforementioned ad service. And to top it off, Roku is expanding its international presence by launching its streaming service in new countries such as Brazil, Germany, and the UK.All in all, Roku is a well-run company with impressive market ambitions. Yet, the stock price is down 81% in 18 months as Roku bears focused on the limited ad business and high-flying stock price. I am convinced that the price correction went too far by a long shot, giving investors a buying opportunity that should not be missed. After all, Roku is one of the binge-worthiest picks in the flourishing streaming industry.Shopify: retail therapy for your portfolioAnd then there's Shopify, the champ of e-commerce tools for small and medium businesses. People are getting comfortable with shopping online, and Shopify leads the charge in providing handy e-commerce tools for retailers of every stripe. The company's cloud-based shopping platform helps businesses set up and manage their online stores, quickly and easily. The package also includes payment and shipping services as well as a full set of marketing tools. Shopify is a one-stop shop for modern entrepreneurs.Shopify has been delivering impressive revenue growth and profits. Fourth-quarter sales rose 25.7% year over year despite the ongoing inflation challenges.The company is investing heavily in new markets and technologies to maintain its market-defining leadership in any economy. As a result, Shopify has deep-rooted partnerships with major retail and e-commerce players like Amazon, Google and Walmart, as well as a steady stream of new features. Shopify's innovations keep making it easier for businesses to find more customers and sell more goods online.The company's culture of innovation and creativity is the very heart of this juggernaut. It wants to make the online shopping experience more personalized, more engaging, and more fun, giving consumers all the more reason to fill those online shopping baskets. In turn, happy customers will inspire more retailers to sign up for Shopify's tools and services. And the fast-growing customer base -- currently at 2.1 million daily active businesses serving 218 million consumers over the last year -- proves that Shopify's business plan is working.With its impressive track record of rapid growth and game-changing innovation, this e-commerce champion should deliver pocket-padding shareholder returns over the long haul.Diversify your portfolio with these winnersI'm not saying that Roku, AMD, and Shopify are birds of a feather. I get it. You might think I'm comparing an apple, an orange, and a banana here. But these diverse companies still have many shareholder-friendly qualities in common. Thanks to these positive attributes, one or more of them may be a good fit for your retirement portfolio.They have strong management teams that know how to execute growth plans and deliver value to shareholders. They're well-positioned to keep riding the secular trends that fuel their respective industries, and that means they have the potential to make you rich by retirement.There you have it. AMD, Roku, and Shopify are some of the first tech stocks that you should seriously consider adding to your retirement portfolio. With their impressive track records and bright futures, owning shares of these winners could help you retire in style.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":224,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943413160,"gmtCreate":1679623399350,"gmtModify":1679623625970,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oic","listText":"Oic","text":"Oic","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943413160","repostId":"2321135693","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2321135693","pubTimestamp":1679621524,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2321135693?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-24 09:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"JPMorgan, Citi, BofA Tell Staff Not to Poach Clients From Stressed Banks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2321135693","media":"StreetInsider","summary":"As a series of U.S. lenders were besieged by customers yanking out their money this month, banking b","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>As a series of U.S. lenders were besieged by customers yanking out their money this month, banking behemoths JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co, Citigroup Inc and Bank of America Corp., warned employees: do not make it worse.</p><p>JPMorgan, the nation&#39;s largest bank, told all employees they &#34;should never give the appearance of exploiting a situation of stress or uncertainty,&#34; in a March 13 memo, extracts of which were seen by Reuters. &#34;We do not make disparaging comments regarding competitors.&#34;</p><p>On the same day, the leaders of its consumer and business banking unit told branch employees: &#34;We should refrain from soliciting client business from an institution in stress,&#34; according to extracts seen by Reuters.</p><p>Citigroup has also given similar guidance to its business heads, a source familiar with the matter said.

Chief Executive Jane Fraser have all made statements in recent days to reassure the public that the U.S. banking system is safe.\"We all have a vested interest in keeping America's financial system strong and thriving,\" a JPMorgan spokesperson said. \"It's the envy of the world with thousands of institutions of all sizes serving every corner of the country.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":250,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943216176,"gmtCreate":1679480434496,"gmtModify":1679480438012,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Always great to see sg stock rise","listText":"Always great to see sg stock rise","text":"Always great to see sg stock rise","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943216176","repostId":"1129106684","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":243,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943205112,"gmtCreate":1679454925736,"gmtModify":1679454929402,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943205112","repostId":"1179860182","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1179860182","pubTimestamp":1679453558,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1179860182?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-22 10:52","market":"other","language":"en","title":"Bitcoin Holds $28K Fort, Ethereum, Dogecoin Rise: Analyst Sees Beautiful Setup For Apex Crypto As Focus Turns To Fed","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1179860182","media":"Benzinga","summary":"ZINGER KEY POINTSThe coming Federal Reserve FOMC decision on Wednesday is highly anticipated as mark","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>ZINGER KEY POINTS</b></p><ul><li>The coming Federal Reserve FOMC decision on Wednesday is highly anticipated as markets have priced in a 25 basis point rate hike.</li><li>Crypto Fear &amp; Greed index shows investors are currently feeling a strong sense of &#34;greed,&#34; with a score of 68.</li></ul><p>Major cryptocurrencies traded in the green on Tuesday evening as the Federal Reserve began its two-day <b>Federal Open Market Committee</b> monetary policy meeting to decide whether to raise interest rates.</p><p><b>What Happened:</b> Apex cryptocurrency <b>Bitcoin</b> is currently trading at around $28,096, with a brief midday spike taking BTC to as high as $28,605.</p><p><b>Ethereum</b> was up 2.10% to change hands below $1,800. <b>Dogecoin</b> was trading at $0.075, up 4.85% in the last 24 hours.</p><p>At the time of writing, the global crypto market capitalization stood at $1.18 trillion, an increase of 1.90% over the last day.</p><p>U.S. stocks traded higher today amid a banking rally and improved investor optimism.

They are still scooping up shares of Tesla Inc.</p><p>Individual investors’ net purchases of a basket of eight popular tech stocks hit a recent peak in November, before dropping sharply through the end of the year, according to Vanda Research. Buying has since picked up slightly in the new year as tech shares rebound.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b7977755e550ba4139ded487b90bb2b1\" tg-width=\"364\" tg-height=\"579\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>As for Tesla, individuals have been steady buyers since the end of 2021, doubling down when the stock tumbled to close out 2022. They have spent more money on Tesla shares in the past six months than in the five years prior, Vanda found. And on Jan. 10, one-day net purchases of Tesla shares hit a record high of $316 million.</p><p>“As markets took a big hit, we saw retail investors shift into their favorite tech stock rather than investing across the whole sector,” Vanda analyst Lucas Mantle said of Tesla. “It might be the last shoe to drop.”</p><p>The Federal Reserve’s fight to tame inflation through aggressive interest-rate increases last year abruptly changed the outlook for big tech stocks, which for years had lifted the major stock indexes to new highs. Investors were forced to reassess the pros and cons of investing in companies whose appeal centered on the prospect of huge profits years down the line.</p><p>Tesla shares dropped 65% in 2022, their worst year on record.</p><p>In the coming week, investors are awaiting quarterly earnings reports from Tesla, along with Microsoft, Intel.</p><p>Even as skeptics cite concerns about production disruptions, demand worries and Chief Executive Elon Musk’s divided attention after his acquisition of Twitter Inc., Tesla’s most ardent supporters keep their faith in a long-term payout.</p><p>Abhas Gupta, a 41-year-old entrepreneur in Irvine, Calif., said he moved his whole equity portfolio into Tesla shares in 2018, enamored by its electric cars and promise of disruptive innovation. Last year, he lost his entire seven-figure retirement fund after taking out margin loans and using options to turbocharge his bets on Tesla, he said. Still, he said he is far from calling it quits.</p><p>“I basically burned a lifetime’s worth of wealth, but none of this has shaken my confidence in the company. There is just no company even remotely close to Tesla on innovation,” Mr. Gupta said.</p><p>“Why would I invest in a basket of dinosaurs?” he said of the S&amp;P 500.</p><p>Mr. Gupta said he is aggressively buying long-dated call options on Tesla. Call options give traders the right, though not the obligation, to buy shares at a stated price by a certain date, while put options grant the right to sell.</p><p>Overall, options volume in Tesla has grown in the past few months, according to Cboe Global Markets. One of the largest options bets on Tesla is that shares will reach $825 in the next three years; the stock closed at $133.42 per share Friday.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f3eff7c1cdd74a431339a1d06138e4d1\" tg-width=\"361\" tg-height=\"472\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Gabriel Wilson, a 52-year-old physician who splits his time between Texas and New York, said the Fed remains his primary concern in the market. After first leasing Tesla’s Model X in 2018, he said he moved all of his investments into Tesla. Although he cashed out his holdings around the end of 2021 due to concerns about near-term market weakness, he is looking to buy Tesla shares again soon, he said.</p><p>Despite last year’s market turmoil, he hasn’t touched a roughly $100,000 trust fund for his son held solely in Tesla shares, he said.</p><p>“No one can compete with Tesla,” Dr. Wilson said. “I have absolutely no doubt Tesla is the future.”</p><p>Many professional investors remain cautious on tech stocks to start the new year. Fund managers rotated out of technology stocks in January and are more underweight the sector than their historical positioning, according to Bank of America Corp.’s latest global fund manager survey.</p><p>But some individuals are betting that tech could reign supreme again if the Fed signals plans to pivot from raising interest rates.

They are still scooping up shares of Tesla Inc.Individual investors’ net purchases of a basket of eight popular tech stocks hit a recent peak in November, before dropping sharply through the end of the year, according to Vanda Research. Buying has since picked up slightly in the new year as tech shares rebound.As for Tesla, individuals have been steady buyers since the end of 2021, doubling down when the stock tumbled to close out 2022. They have spent more money on Tesla shares in the past six months than in the five years prior, Vanda found. And on Jan. 10, one-day net purchases of Tesla shares hit a record high of $316 million.“As markets took a big hit, we saw retail investors shift into their favorite tech stock rather than investing across the whole sector,” Vanda analyst Lucas Mantle said of Tesla. “It might be the last shoe to drop.”The Federal Reserve’s fight to tame inflation through aggressive interest-rate increases last year abruptly changed the outlook for big tech stocks, which for years had lifted the major stock indexes to new highs. Investors were forced to reassess the pros and cons of investing in companies whose appeal centered on the prospect of huge profits years down the line.Tesla shares dropped 65% in 2022, their worst year on record.In the coming week, investors are awaiting quarterly earnings reports from Tesla, along with Microsoft, Intel.Even as skeptics cite concerns about production disruptions, demand worries and Chief Executive Elon Musk’s divided attention after his acquisition of Twitter Inc., Tesla’s most ardent supporters keep their faith in a long-term payout.Abhas Gupta, a 41-year-old entrepreneur in Irvine, Calif., said he moved his whole equity portfolio into Tesla shares in 2018, enamored by its electric cars and promise of disruptive innovation. Last year, he lost his entire seven-figure retirement fund after taking out margin loans and using options to turbocharge his bets on Tesla, he said. Still, he said he is far from calling it quits.“I basically burned a lifetime’s worth of wealth, but none of this has shaken my confidence in the company. There is just no company even remotely close to Tesla on innovation,” Mr. Gupta said.“Why would I invest in a basket of dinosaurs?” he said of the S&P 500.Mr. Gupta said he is aggressively buying long-dated call options on Tesla. Call options give traders the right, though not the obligation, to buy shares at a stated price by a certain date, while put options grant the right to sell.Overall, options volume in Tesla has grown in the past few months, according to Cboe Global Markets. One of the largest options bets on Tesla is that shares will reach $825 in the next three years; the stock closed at $133.42 per share Friday.Gabriel Wilson, a 52-year-old physician who splits his time between Texas and New York, said the Fed remains his primary concern in the market. After first leasing Tesla’s Model X in 2018, he said he moved all of his investments into Tesla. Although he cashed out his holdings around the end of 2021 due to concerns about near-term market weakness, he is looking to buy Tesla shares again soon, he said.Despite last year’s market turmoil, he hasn’t touched a roughly $100,000 trust fund for his son held solely in Tesla shares, he said.“No one can compete with Tesla,” Dr. Wilson said. “I have absolutely no doubt Tesla is the future.”Many professional investors remain cautious on tech stocks to start the new year. Fund managers rotated out of technology stocks in January and are more underweight the sector than their historical positioning, according to Bank of America Corp.’s latest global fund manager survey.But some individuals are betting that tech could reign supreme again if the Fed signals plans to pivot from raising interest rates. Federal-funds futures, used to wager on the course of interest rates, show traders expect the central bank to cut rates later this year, even though Fed officials have repeatedly said their work to cool the economy isn’t done.Nicki Bourlioufas, 51, said she bought shares of Advanced Micro Devices Inc. and Nvidia Corp. last year, then refrained from adding new positions as those semiconductor stocks struggled. The financial public-relations consultant in Sydney said she is looking for opportunities to pick up shares of Tesla, along with Microsoft, Apple Inc. and Alphabet Inc.“As soon as there’s any hint that interest rates will be cut, then I expect tech stocks will rally and I’d like to be there and positioned,” she said. “I use their products and I’d like to also reap their profits.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":76,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9952388175,"gmtCreate":1674460972998,"gmtModify":1676538941255,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]&nbsp;","listText":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]&nbsp;","text":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":22,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9952388175","repostId":"2305604719","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":38,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9922106087,"gmtCreate":1671708746249,"gmtModify":1676538579800,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]&nbsp;","listText":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]&nbsp;","text":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":14,"commentSize":5,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9922106087","repostId":"1102116872","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102116872","pubTimestamp":1671722826,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1102116872?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-12-22 23:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is a 2023 Stock-Market Rebound in Store After 2022 Selloff?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102116872","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"History shows back-to-back losing years for the stocks are rare — but the size of the market’s drop ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>History shows back-to-back losing years for the stocks are rare — but the size of the market’s drop in 2022 with no sign the Federal Reserve is ready to ride to the rescue means investors should beware, analysts warned.</p><p>With just a handful of trading days left in what is shaping up to be the worst year for the U.S. stock market in over a decade, the S&amp;P 500 index is on track to close out the year down more than 18.5%.</p><p>That is the large-cap index’s first double-digit percentage loss since 2008, when it slid 36.6% during the global financial crisis, according to Dow Jones Market Data.</p><p>However, it is extremely rare for the S&amp;P 500 to post back-to-back down years. The S&amp;P has fallen for two straight years less than 10% of the time from 1928 to 2021. In the year after a negative total annual return for the S&amp;P, the index is up by 12.6% on average and is positive 17 out of 25 years, according to data compiled by DataTrek Research.</p><p>But the market’s performance after posting a double-digit percentage drop has been less straightforward.</p><p>“The S&amp;P 500 has a much better win rate (79% vs 55%) and average performance (up 17.5% vs. 6.4%) in the 12 months following a down calendar year of less than 10% than one that does worse than that, and 2022 is shaping up to be in the latter camp,” said Jessica Rabe, co-founder of DataTrek Research, in a Tuesday note.</p><p>Rabe, however, noted that in the few instances when the S&amp;P 500 has dropped consecutive calendar years, it’s been due to a major economic event, such as the Great Depression between 1929 and 1939, or a geopolitical shock, such as the World War II and the oil crisis in 1972, or both, in the case of the early 2000s when there was the bursting of the dot-com bubble, the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks and the subsequent U.S. invasion of Iraq.</p><p>She argued that there would likely need to be another major economic or geopolitical crisis for the S&amp;P 500 to fall for a second consecutive year in 2023. However, help from the Federal Reserve in the form of lowering interest rates or a rise in federal government spending would be crucial for a bounce in the U.S. equities after a hard year.</p><p>“The Financial Crisis is a useful example to show that when times get truly difficult, fiscal and monetary policy stimulus can help the S&amp;P rebound after a horrible year,” Rabe wrote.</p><p>The S&amp;P 500 booked an annual loss of over 36% in 2008 after Lehman Brothers went bankrupt under the weight of $619 billion in debt due to investments in subprime mortgages.

But what Powell is trying to make markets understand is, hey, we are not going to be doing this,” Fernandez told MarketWatch on Tuesday.</p><p>“They’re just willy-nilly trying to drive us over the cliff,” she added.</p><p>“That’s why U.S. equities are so volatile just now, as no one knows when the Fed will pivot to being more accommodative. Chair Powell is solely focused on bringing down inflation to the Fed’s 2% target and he has the latitude to do so given the strength of the U.S. labor market,” said Rabe at DataTrek.</p><p>U.S. stocks rallied on Wednesday after snapping four-day losing streak in the previous session. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended 1.6% higher, but was on pace to book an annual loss of 8.2%. The Nasdaq Composite climbed 1.5%, but has decreased by 31.5% year-to-date. The S&amp;P 500 gained 56.82 points, or 1.5%, finishing at 3,878.44.</p><p>David Wagner, portfolio manager for Aptus Capital Advisors in Cincinnati, told MarketWatch that he expects the stock market to experience less pain and less price volatility next year, but that doesn’t mean investors will see positive market returns.</p><p>“We believe that a policy error has already been committed by the Fed. The real and long-lasting policy error would be if inflation were to become unanchored, thus the emphasis on the market focusing on price stability, specifically wage inflation, in the near-term,” Wagner said.</p><p>“History shows us that markets are a sprint lower and a marathon higher. With the potential for slowing global growth and a less accommodative Fed, this marathon may include more hills than plains, which could create constant volatility in the market,” he said.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Is a 2023 Stock-Market Rebound in Store After 2022 Selloff?

An actual put option is a financial derivative that gives the holder the right but not the obligation to sell the underlying asset at a set level, known as the strike price, serving as an insurance policy against a market decline.Victoria Fernandez, chief market strategist at Crossmark Global Investments, thinks the Fed is going to let the market work through the “shallow recession” in 2023 and not immediately jump in and cut rates.“Historically we assumed and knew that we would have a ‘Fed put’, that immediately Fed steps in and handles it for us. But what Powell is trying to make markets understand is, hey, we are not going to be doing this,” Fernandez told MarketWatch on Tuesday.“They’re just willy-nilly trying to drive us over the cliff,” she added.“That’s why U.S. equities are so volatile just now, as no one knows when the Fed will pivot to being more accommodative. Chair Powell is solely focused on bringing down inflation to the Fed’s 2% target and he has the latitude to do so given the strength of the U.S. labor market,” said Rabe at DataTrek.U.S. stocks rallied on Wednesday after snapping four-day losing streak in the previous session. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended 1.6% higher, but was on pace to book an annual loss of 8.2%. The Nasdaq Composite climbed 1.5%, but has decreased by 31.5% year-to-date. The S&P 500 gained 56.82 points, or 1.5%, finishing at 3,878.44.David Wagner, portfolio manager for Aptus Capital Advisors in Cincinnati, told MarketWatch that he expects the stock market to experience less pain and less price volatility next year, but that doesn’t mean investors will see positive market returns.“We believe that a policy error has already been committed by the Fed. The real and long-lasting policy error would be if inflation were to become unanchored, thus the emphasis on the market focusing on price stability, specifically wage inflation, in the near-term,” Wagner said.“History shows us that markets are a sprint lower and a marathon higher. With the potential for slowing global growth and a less accommodative Fed, this marathon may include more hills than plains, which could create constant volatility in the market,” he said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":142,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9958891633,"gmtCreate":1673674562223,"gmtModify":1676538873976,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]&nbsp;","listText":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]&nbsp;","text":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":20,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9958891633","repostId":"1173773008","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1173773008","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1673837089,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1173773008?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-01-16 10:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Reminder: U.S. Market is Closed for Martin Luther King Day on Monday, Jan.16, 2023","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1173773008","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Martin Luther King Day has arrived.

TheS&P 500slid 1.3% to 4,166.45. Both the Dow and S&P 500 hit their session lows in the final minutes of trading and closed around those levels. TheNasdaq Compositeclosed 0.9% lower at 14,030.38. Economic comeback plays led the market losses.\nFor the week, the 30-stock Dow lost 3.5%. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq were down by 1.9% and 0.2%, respectively, week to date.\nSt. Louis Federal Reserve President Jim Bullardtold CNBC's \"Squawk Box\"on Friday it was natural for the Fed to tilt a little \"hawkish\" this week and that the first rate increase from the central bank would likely come in 2022. His comments came after the Fed on Wednesday added two rate hikes to its 2023 forecast and increased its inflation projection for the year, putting pressure on stock prices.\n\"The fear held by some investors is that if the Fed tightens policy sooner than expected to help cool inflationary pressures, this could weigh on future economic growth,\" Truist Advisory Services chief market strategist Keith Lerner said in a note. To be sure, he added it would be premature to give up on the so-called value trade right now.\nPockets of the market most sensitive to the economic rebound led the sell-off this week. The S&P 500 energy sector and industrials dropped 5.2% and 3.8%, respectively, for the week. Financials and materials meanwhile, lost more than 6% each. These groups had been market leaders this year on the back of the economic reopening.\nThe decline in stocks came as the Fed's actions caused a drastic flattening of the so-called Treasury yield curve. This means the yields of shorter-duration Treasurys — like the 2-year note — rose while longer-duration yields like the benchmark 10-year declined. The retreat in long-dated bond yields reflects less optimism toward economic growth, while the jump in short-end yields shows the expectations of the Fed raising rates.\nThis phenomenon hurt bank stocks particularly as their earnings could take a hit when the spread between short-term and long-term rates narrows. Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase shares on Friday lost more than 2% each. Citigroup fell by 1.8%, posting its 12th straight daily decline.\nFed Chairman Jerome Powell said Wednesday that officials have discussed tapering bond buying and would at some point begin slowing the asset purchases.\n\"This week's first whiff of an eventual change in Fed policy was a reminder that emergency monetary conditions and the free-money era will ultimately end,\" strategists at MRB Partners wrote in a note. \"We expect a series of incremental retreats from the Fed's benign inflation outlook in the coming months.\"\nCommodity prices were underpressure this weekas China attempted to cool rising prices and as the U.S. dollar strengthens. Copper, gold and platinum fell once again on Friday.\nFriday also coincided with the quarterly \"quadruple witching\" in which options and futures on indexes and equities expire.

While Netflix makes a large amount of its own content, it also licenses many of its original shows and acquires content from other companies.</p><p>Studios likely will seek a premium of 15% to 30% over existing contracts to grant Netflix the right to put their content on an ad-supported platform, some entertainment executives said.</p><p>&#34;Any distributor being approached by Netflix is going to take steps to ensure they get proper value,&#34; said Jeffrey Schlesinger, a former president of Warner Bros. Worldwide Television Distribution who now heads the media advisory firm Former Bros. Media LLC.</p><p>A Netflix spokeswoman said, &#34;We are still in the early days of deciding how to launch a lower-priced, ad-supported option, and no decisions have been made.&#34;</p><p>Amending deals isn&#39;t unheard of in the industry. When Netflix wanted to offer customers the ability to download content, it had to renegotiate its licensing agreements with outside suppliers. The price tag for download rights was an additional 10% to 15% of the agreement, one studio executive said.</p><p>Netflix has told content suppliers it wants to debut an ad-supported version of its service by the fourth quarter of this year. The move comes as the world&#39;s biggest streaming service seeks a new revenue stream and source of subscriber growth.

Here&#39;s why these three mid-cap stocks are worth a closer look.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/13b42bccb0c636f436c818b5b3d7813f\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><h2>1. Magnite: Steadily expanding with streaming TV</h2><p>Magnite stock hasn&#39;t been able to catch a break since quickly doubling in value in the first couple months of 2021. Share prices are down 77% from their all-time high posted nearly a year ago, valuing the software company at a mere $2.4 billion (as measured by enterprise value).</p><p>In hindsight, Magnite was way overpriced 12 months ago. Over-optimism had set in, driven by the company&#39;s fast-growing platform, which helps video publishers sell advertising slots. Connected TV (CTV) is taking over the at-home entertainment space as a myriad of new streaming services pick up subscribers and traditional video moves to an internet-delivered format. Magnite is the largest independent CTV software company. Hundreds of publishers rely on it to automate the selling of ads and maximize value for their content.</p><p>But a company that expects to grow sales at an average of 25% per year in each of the next five years didn&#39;t deserve to trade at a trailing 12-month sales multiple of over 20 (which is where Magnite was early in 2021). Now shares trade for a mere 4.5 times trailing 12-month sales, which seems incredibly cheap considering this is a highly profitable <i>and </i>growing business. Adjusted EBITDA profit margin was 35% in Q3 2021, and management expects it to be at over 40% in the coming years.</p><p>Of course, the digital ad software space is highly competitive, and Magnite has a lot of debt due to a couple of acquisitions ($719 million as of the end of September 2021). But Magnite generates plenty of cash to service its debt, and is poised to continue expanding with the CTV industry in the coming years. Even management thinks its stock is a pretty good deal right now. It announced a $50 million share repurchase program in December. I like this CTV ad stock at these levels too.</p><h2>2. Redfin: A full-service tech-powered brokerage firm</h2><p>The real estate brokerage business is a cyclical <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>, and Redfin&#39;s stock has been suffering on fears of a too-hot residential housing market. Supply of homes available for sale has been thin during the pandemic as Americans relocate en masse, and now with interest rates set to rise this year, there&#39;s another reason to worry. Redfin stock is down nearly 60% in the last year, giving it an enterprise value of $4.2 billion.</p><p>Redfin won&#39;t be an appropriate stock for every investor. The company is spending heavily to maximize sales growth right now, and generated negative free cash flow of $429 million over the last 12-month stretch. But at just 2.2 times trailing 12-month sales, a substantial amount of negativity has been priced in at this point.</p><p>After all, Redfin is still steadily winning market share (1.16% of U.S. existing home value in Q3 2021, compared to 1.04% the year prior). It&#39;s still expanding its services into new cities, acquired an online rental listing site last spring, and recently announced it&#39;s purchasing Bay Equity Home Loans to expand on its mortgage services. Redfin has a full-service technology stack to help home buyers and sellers, and it has lots of potential avenues for growth ahead -- regardless of where the real estate market goes next.</p><p>Management had said to expect year-over-year revenue growth of as much as 148% in Q4 2021, a torrid pace that is unlikely to continue in the new year. Nevertheless, with shares depressed in value and Redfin still making progress in the residential real estate market, now looks like a pretty good time to nibble on this tech stock.</p><h2>3. Crocs: Comfort and utility for the win</h2><p>Crocs sales have been soaring during the pandemic, bucking the trend of overall declines elsewhere in the apparel and clothing department. In 2021 alone, the company stated it&#39;s expecting record full-year sales topping $2.3 billion, growth of 67% over 2020. In spite of this, share prices have dropped a third in value in recent months. Crocs has an enterprise value of $7.2 billion.</p><p>Comfort and utility are in vogue as the pandemic reshapes consumer behavior. As a result of this and a push into new markets in Asia, Crocs thinks it will remain a fast-growing shoe company for years. Management&#39;s goal is to reach $5 billion in annual sales by 2026. 2022 is off to a good start working toward that milestone. Excluding the recent acquisition of small casual shoe brand Hey Dude, Crocs expects sales growth to exceed 20%, all while maintaining an adjusted operating profit margin of about 28%. That makes this quirky shoe business one of the most profitable in the industry.</p><p>When Crocs announced it was acquiring Hey Dude last month for $2.5 billion, I was initially skeptical. However, it was revealed the small casual brand should bring in as much as $750 million in sales in 2022, with an adjusted operating margin of 26%. Plugged into Crocs&#39; existing distribution channels, this could be a new growth lever for Crocs in the years ahead.</p><p>Considering Crocs&#39; 2022 outlook, shares currently trade for just 7 times adjusted operating income (assuming Crocs generates that 28% margin, and Hey Dude 26%). Of course, Crocs will need to prove it&#39;s the real deal and deliver the goods. But if it does, this looks like one overlooked cheap shoe stock right now.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Top Mid-Cap Stocks That Are Wildly Undervalued Right Now</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Top Mid-Cap Stocks That Are Wildly Undervalued Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-22 07:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/21/mid-cap-stocks-wildly-undervalued-magnite-redfin/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>While the market overall had a pretty good year in 2021 (the S&P 500, slanted toward large-cap stocks, was up 27%), the performance of small- and mid-cap stocks was mixed.

Magnite: Steadily expanding with streaming TVMagnite stock hasn't been able to catch a break since quickly doubling in value in the first couple months of 2021. Share prices are down 77% from their all-time high posted nearly a year ago, valuing the software company at a mere $2.4 billion (as measured by enterprise value).In hindsight, Magnite was way overpriced 12 months ago. Over-optimism had set in, driven by the company's fast-growing platform, which helps video publishers sell advertising slots. Connected TV (CTV) is taking over the at-home entertainment space as a myriad of new streaming services pick up subscribers and traditional video moves to an internet-delivered format. Magnite is the largest independent CTV software company. Hundreds of publishers rely on it to automate the selling of ads and maximize value for their content.But a company that expects to grow sales at an average of 25% per year in each of the next five years didn't deserve to trade at a trailing 12-month sales multiple of over 20 (which is where Magnite was early in 2021). Now shares trade for a mere 4.5 times trailing 12-month sales, which seems incredibly cheap considering this is a highly profitable and growing business. Adjusted EBITDA profit margin was 35% in Q3 2021, and management expects it to be at over 40% in the coming years.Of course, the digital ad software space is highly competitive, and Magnite has a lot of debt due to a couple of acquisitions ($719 million as of the end of September 2021). But Magnite generates plenty of cash to service its debt, and is poised to continue expanding with the CTV industry in the coming years. Even management thinks its stock is a pretty good deal right now. It announced a $50 million share repurchase program in December. I like this CTV ad stock at these levels too.2. Redfin: A full-service tech-powered brokerage firmThe real estate brokerage business is a cyclical one, and Redfin's stock has been suffering on fears of a too-hot residential housing market. Supply of homes available for sale has been thin during the pandemic as Americans relocate en masse, and now with interest rates set to rise this year, there's another reason to worry. Redfin stock is down nearly 60% in the last year, giving it an enterprise value of $4.2 billion.Redfin won't be an appropriate stock for every investor. The company is spending heavily to maximize sales growth right now, and generated negative free cash flow of $429 million over the last 12-month stretch. But at just 2.2 times trailing 12-month sales, a substantial amount of negativity has been priced in at this point.After all, Redfin is still steadily winning market share (1.16% of U.S. existing home value in Q3 2021, compared to 1.04% the year prior). It's still expanding its services into new cities, acquired an online rental listing site last spring, and recently announced it's purchasing Bay Equity Home Loans to expand on its mortgage services. Redfin has a full-service technology stack to help home buyers and sellers, and it has lots of potential avenues for growth ahead -- regardless of where the real estate market goes next.Management had said to expect year-over-year revenue growth of as much as 148% in Q4 2021, a torrid pace that is unlikely to continue in the new year. Nevertheless, with shares depressed in value and Redfin still making progress in the residential real estate market, now looks like a pretty good time to nibble on this tech stock.3. Crocs: Comfort and utility for the winCrocs sales have been soaring during the pandemic, bucking the trend of overall declines elsewhere in the apparel and clothing department. In 2021 alone, the company stated it's expecting record full-year sales topping $2.3 billion, growth of 67% over 2020. In spite of this, share prices have dropped a third in value in recent months. Crocs has an enterprise value of $7.2 billion.Comfort and utility are in vogue as the pandemic reshapes consumer behavior. As a result of this and a push into new markets in Asia, Crocs thinks it will remain a fast-growing shoe company for years. Management's goal is to reach $5 billion in annual sales by 2026. 2022 is off to a good start working toward that milestone. Excluding the recent acquisition of small casual shoe brand Hey Dude, Crocs expects sales growth to exceed 20%, all while maintaining an adjusted operating profit margin of about 28%. That makes this quirky shoe business one of the most profitable in the industry.When Crocs announced it was acquiring Hey Dude last month for $2.5 billion, I was initially skeptical. However, it was revealed the small casual brand should bring in as much as $750 million in sales in 2022, with an adjusted operating margin of 26%. Plugged into Crocs' existing distribution channels, this could be a new growth lever for Crocs in the years ahead.Considering Crocs' 2022 outlook, shares currently trade for just 7 times adjusted operating income (assuming Crocs generates that 28% margin, and Hey Dude 26%). Of course, Crocs will need to prove it's the real deal and deliver the goods. But if it does, this looks like one overlooked cheap shoe stock right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":205,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9954941807,"gmtCreate":1675955012909,"gmtModify":1675955016711,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]&nbsp;","listText":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]&nbsp;","text":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":16,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9954941807","repostId":"1170031481","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":18,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9962598787,"gmtCreate":1669799202649,"gmtModify":1676538245721,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like tyvm guys [Happy]&nbsp;","listText":"Pls like tyvm guys [Happy]&nbsp;","text":"Pls like tyvm guys [Happy]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":14,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9962598787","repostId":"1106229901","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":49,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9097321855,"gmtCreate":1645343586117,"gmtModify":1676534020537,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]&nbsp;","listText":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]&nbsp;","text":"Pls like tyvm[Happy]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9097321855","repostId":"2212867177","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2212867177","pubTimestamp":1645329608,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2212867177?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-20 12:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"As investors punish Shopify, these 15 ecommerce companies are expected to grow sales the most through 2023","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2212867177","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"Analysts say Uber, Carvana and, yes, Shopify, will increase sales at an annualized pace of 30% or mo","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Analysts say Uber, Carvana and, yes, Shopify, will increase sales at an annualized pace of 30% or more</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0972bfe1f39b9951cc40461d88665e56\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"487\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Shopify, Uber and Carvana are among ecommerce companies expected to show the best sales growth through 2023.</span></p><p>Shopify had a blowout fourth quarter, with sales rising 41% from a year earlier, the company reported after the market close on Feb. 15.</p><p>Sales are the main objective of a company working at the forefront of the shift to ecommerce.

The chip company still trades near the recent low of $102 despite the valuation turning into a sudden value play. My investment thesis remains ultra Bullish now, especially with AMD suddenly having a large stock buyback worth unleashing.</p><p><b>$8 Billion Buyback</b></p><p>Back on February 24, AMD launched a new $8 billion share buyback program on top of the prior program from May 2021. The chip company spent $1.8 billion on share buybacks last year, leaving $1.2 billion left for this year for total buyback power to unleash in 2022 of $9.2 billion.</p><p>In general, share buyback programs aren&#39;t appealing for aggressive growth stocks trading at rich multiples. A strong balance sheet with a large cash balance is an asset and provides the business with the security to invest as needed in new growth opportunities.</p><p>Besides, a stock trading at the normal AMD forward PE multiples of over 30x don&#39;t actually reduce share counts to a great extent. The finance department is better focused on improving operations versus repurchasing shares.</p><p>In the case of AMD, with the recent collapse of tech stocks, the company needs to become more aggressive with the share buyback plan. The chip company ended March 17 with the stock at $112 with a market cap of $180 billion.</p><p>The $8 billion buyback power repurchases around 5% of the outstanding shares. Clearly, AMD shouldn&#39;t chase prices much above the current price, as the large buyback amount quickly loses the impact.</p><p>The company ended the quarter with a net cash balance (shown as a negative) of $3.3 billion even after already spending the $1.8 billion last year on share buybacks. The company closed the Xilinx deal in February with their cash balance at the end of 2021 of $2.2 billion, providing the combined AMD with a ~$5.5 billion net cash balance.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2a088ec675ee8d4fa4c9fce930a0fe34\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>Just AMD alone generated free cash flow of $3.2 billion last year despite spending on long-term supply chain capacity to increase future supplies. Xilinx alone provides another big source of cash flows generating $0.84 billion for the last 9 months of 2021.</p><p>The combined AMD is expected to see substantial revenue growth this year. Analysts are now targeting growth in the 55% range in 2022. The chip company should be flush with cash flow this year with a general assumption of 55% growth, boosting the $4+ billion in FCF last year to $6+ billion this year before even considering the start of $300 million in cost synergies.</p><p>In total, AMD should have around $11+ billion in total cash available to repurchase shares. No doubt, the chip company has the balance sheet and cash flows to repurchase shares. The only real question is whether the company should spend the money.</p><p><b>Not Just Downside Protection</b></p><p>While AMD should focus on the buyback providing downside protection for the stock, a share reduction in the 5% range would start providing solid upside for shareholders. The company should only start throwing off more and more cash in future years due to the limited capital needed to run the fabless business.</p><p>My previous research highlighted why AMD has the EPS potential of at least $5.50 in 2023, but analysts only have EPS targets at $4.74 next year. Either way, though, a 5% share reduction would boost the current analyst 2023 EPS targets by $0.24.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f868d69956374509823d44c4603d80a8\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>The semi. company previously wasn&#39;t thought as capable of generating earnings due to the dominating position of <b>Intel</b> (INTC) is now poised to boost EPS by up to $0.24 via just a share buyback. AMD only trades at 24x current analyst 2023 EPS targets, and these numbers appear very conservative.</p><p>My previous 2023 EPS target of $5.50 didn&#39;t even factor in a boost from lower share counts. A 5% share reduction would boost that EPS target by $0.28 and push AMD even closer to a $6 EPS. The stock only trades at 19x the updated share buybacks boosted EPS.</p><p><b>Takeaway</b></p><p>The key investor takeaway is that AMD isn&#39;t likely to trade down at the $112 level long enough for the chip company to make material amounts of share buybacks. If this does happen, shareholders win and have solid downside protection at this level.</p><p>Ultimately, AMD isn&#39;t likely to see much financial benefit from the share buybacks, but an investor should feel comfortable buying the chip stock here with the downside protection. The company should definitely spend every penny on buybacks at this level.</p></body></html>","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>AMD: Time To Spend Some Money</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\">\nAMD: Time To Spend Some Money\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-19 11:17 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4496549-amd-time-to-spend-some-money><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryAMD has fallen close to 8-month lows near $110.The chip company has $9 billion worth of stock buyback power.The stock now trades at bargain rates worthy of aggressive buybacks with a '23 EPS ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4496549-amd-time-to-spend-some-money\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AMD":"美国超微公司","BK4573":"虚拟现实","BK4532":"文艺复兴科技持仓","BK4534":"瑞士信贷持仓","BK4529":"IDC概念","GFS":"GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc.","BK4141":"半导体产品","BK4512":"苹果概念","BK4566":"资本集团","BK4575":"芯片概念","BK4554":"元宇宙及AR概念"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4496549-amd-time-to-spend-some-money","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2220370899","content_text":"SummaryAMD has fallen close to 8-month lows near $110.The chip company has $9 billion worth of stock buyback power.The stock now trades at bargain rates worthy of aggressive buybacks with a '23 EPS boosted target pushing the forward PE below 20x.Melpomenem/iStock via Getty ImagesThe market has snapped back the last three days, yet Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) hadn't made a huge move.

Clearly, AMD shouldn't chase prices much above the current price, as the large buyback amount quickly loses the impact.The company ended the quarter with a net cash balance (shown as a negative) of $3.3 billion even after already spending the $1.8 billion last year on share buybacks. The company closed the Xilinx deal in February with their cash balance at the end of 2021 of $2.2 billion, providing the combined AMD with a ~$5.5 billion net cash balance.Data by YChartsJust AMD alone generated free cash flow of $3.2 billion last year despite spending on long-term supply chain capacity to increase future supplies. Xilinx alone provides another big source of cash flows generating $0.84 billion for the last 9 months of 2021.The combined AMD is expected to see substantial revenue growth this year. Analysts are now targeting growth in the 55% range in 2022. The chip company should be flush with cash flow this year with a general assumption of 55% growth, boosting the $4+ billion in FCF last year to $6+ billion this year before even considering the start of $300 million in cost synergies.In total, AMD should have around $11+ billion in total cash available to repurchase shares. No doubt, the chip company has the balance sheet and cash flows to repurchase shares. The only real question is whether the company should spend the money.Not Just Downside ProtectionWhile AMD should focus on the buyback providing downside protection for the stock, a share reduction in the 5% range would start providing solid upside for shareholders. The company should only start throwing off more and more cash in future years due to the limited capital needed to run the fabless business.My previous research highlighted why AMD has the EPS potential of at least $5.50 in 2023, but analysts only have EPS targets at $4.74 next year. Either way, though, a 5% share reduction would boost the current analyst 2023 EPS targets by $0.24.Data by YChartsThe semi. company previously wasn't thought as capable of generating earnings due to the dominating position of Intel (INTC) is now poised to boost EPS by up to $0.24 via just a share buyback. AMD only trades at 24x current analyst 2023 EPS targets, and these numbers appear very conservative.My previous 2023 EPS target of $5.50 didn't even factor in a boost from lower share counts. A 5% share reduction would boost that EPS target by $0.28 and push AMD even closer to a $6 EPS. The stock only trades at 19x the updated share buybacks boosted EPS.TakeawayThe key investor takeaway is that AMD isn't likely to trade down at the $112 level long enough for the chip company to make material amounts of share buybacks. If this does happen, shareholders win and have solid downside protection at this level.Ultimately, AMD isn't likely to see much financial benefit from the share buybacks, but an investor should feel comfortable buying the chip stock here with the downside protection. The company should definitely spend every penny on buybacks at this level.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":120,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":801796035,"gmtCreate":1627532874927,"gmtModify":1703491843188,"author":{"id":"3577323914202336","authorId":"3577323914202336","name":"V K","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/536d624e5750dcffec704eeed9bc003b","crmLevel":8,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577323914202336","authorIdStr":"3577323914202336"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Pls help like and comment tyvm","listText":"Pls help like and comment tyvm","text":"Pls help like and comment tyvm","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/801796035","repostId":"1127264445","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1127264445","pubTimestamp":1627514621,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1127264445?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-29 07:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 ends off day's lows; Powell says Fed still a ways away from rate hikes","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1127264445","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK (Reuters) - The S&P 500 ended little changed on Wednesday but off its session lows after th","content":"<p>NEW YORK (Reuters) - The S&amp;P 500 ended little changed on Wednesday but off its session lows after the Federal Reserve said the U.S. economic recovery remains on track and Chair Jerome <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/POWL\">Powell</a> said the central bank was still a ways away from considering raising interest rates.</p>\n<p>Keeping the market in check, shares of tech giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> Inc fell 1.2% after it forecast slowing revenue growth.</p>\n<p>In a news conference following the release of a new policy statement from the Fed, Powell also said the U.S. job market still had “some ground to cover” before it would be time to pull back from the economic support the U.S. central bank put in place in the spring of 2020 to battle the coronavirus pandemic’s economic shocks.</p>\n<p>“It looks like probably the most positive thing for the market was that they are nowhere near increasing interest rates,” said Alan Lancz, president, Alan B.

That much is true.</p>\n<p>Unfortunately pretty much everything else about inflation—a red hot topic these days—is conjecture. And that’s vexing, not just for the dismal scientists (aka economists), but for all of us, because whether or not prices are really rising, by how much and for how long, has massive implications in our lives. Or as Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, says: “Inflation is one of the mysteries of economic study and thought. A difficult thing to gauge and forecast and get right. That’s why the risks are high.”</p>\n<p>The current debate over inflation really revolves around two questions: First, is this current spate of inflation, just that, a spate—or to use Wall Street’s buzzword of the moment, “transitory,”—or not? (Just to give you an idea of how buzzy, when I Google the word “transitory” the search engine suggests “inflation” after it.) And second, transitory (aka temporary) inflation or not, what does it suggest for the economy and markets?</p>\n<p>Before I get into that, let me lay out what’s going on with prices right now. First, know that inflation,which peaked in 1980 at an annualized rate of 13.55%,has been tame for quite some time, specifically 4% or less for nearly 30 years. Which means that anyone 40 years old or younger has no experience with inflation other than maybe from an Econ 101 textbook. Obviously that could be a problem.</p>\n<p>As an aside I remember President Ford in 1974 trying to jawbone inflation down with his \"Whip Inflation Now\" campaign, which featured“Win” buttons,earringsand evenugly sweaters.None of this worked and it took draconian measures by Fed Chair Paul Volcker (raising rates and targeting money supply,as described by Former President of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, William Poole)to eventually tame inflation and keep it under wraps for all those years.</p>\n<p>Until now perhaps. Last week theLabor Department reported that consumer prices (the CPI, or consumer price index) rose 5% in May,the fastest annual rate in nearly 13 years—which was when the economy was overheating from the housing boom which subsequently went bust and sent the economy off a cliff and into the Great Recession. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, was up 3.8%, the biggest increase since May 1992. (For the record, the likelihood of the economy tanking right now is de minimis.)</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/87f75dfcb98fb5a0e7c3f9d3f8d336e2\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"412\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Used car and truck prices are a major driver of inflation, climbing 7.3% last month and 29.7% over the past year. New car prices are up too, which have pushed upshares of Ford and GM a remarkable 40% plus this year.Clearly Americans want to buy vehicles to go on vacation and get back to work. And Yahoo Finance’sJanna Herron reportsthat rents are rising at their fastest pace in 15 years.</p>\n<p>To be sure, not all prices are climbing.As Yahoo Finance’s Rick Newman points out,prices are not up much at all for health care, education and are basically flat for technology, including computers, smartphones and internet service (an important point which we’ll get back to.)</p>\n<p>But that’s the counterpoint really. Americans are obsessed with cars, housing is critical and many of us are experiencing sticker shock booking travel this summer. Higher prices are front and center. Wall Street too is in a tizzy about inflation, and concerns about it and more importantly Federal Reserve policy in response to inflation (see below), sent stocks lower with the S&amp;P 500 down 1.91% this week, its worst week since February.</p>\n<p>Given this backdrop, the tension (such as it is) was high when the Fed met this week to deliver its forecast and for Chair Jay Powell to answer questions from the media. Or at least so said hedge fund honcho Paul Tudor Jones,who characterized the proceedings on CNBCas “the most important meeting in [Chairman] Jay Powell’s career, certainly the most important Fed meeting of the past four or five years.” Jones was critical of the Fed, which he believes is now stimulating the economy unnecessarily by keeping interest rates low and by buying financial assets. Unnecessarily, Jones says, because the economy is already running hot and needs no support. The Fed (which is in the transitory camp when it comes to inflation) risks overheating the economy by creating runaway inflation, according to PTJ.</p>\n<p>Now I don’t see eye to eye with Jones on this, though I should point out, he's a billionaire from investing in financial markets, and let’s just say I’m not. I should also point out that Jones, 66, is in fact old enough to remember inflation, never mind that as a young man he called the 1987 stock market crash. So we should all ignore Jones at our peril.</p>\n<p>As for what the Fed put forth this past Wednesday, well it wasn’t much, signaling an expectation ofraising interest rates twice by the end of 2023(yes, that is down the road.) And Powell, who’s become much more adept at not rippling the waters these days after some rougher forays earlier in his tenure, didn’t drop any bombshells in the presser.</p>\n<p>Which brings us to the question of why the Federal Reserve isn’t so concerned about inflation and thinks it is mostly—here’s that word again—transitory. To answer that, we need to first address why prices are rising right now, which can be summed up in one very familiar abbreviation: COVID-19. When COVID hit last spring the economy collapsed, which crushed demand in sectors like leisure, travel and retail. Now the economy is roaring back to life and businesses can raise prices, certainly over 2020 levels.</p>\n<p>“We clearly should’ve expected it,” says William Spriggs, chief economist at the AFL-CIO and a professor of economics at Howard University. “You can’t shut down the economy and think you turn on the switch [without some inflation].”</p>\n<p>“We had a pandemic that forced an artificial shutdown of the economy in a way that even the collapse of the financial system and the housing market didn’t, and we had a snapback at a rate we’ve never seen before—not because of the fundamentals driving recovery but because of government,” says Joel Naroff, president and chief economist of Naroff Economics.</p>\n<p>COVID had other secondary effects on the economy though, besides just ultimately producing a snapback. For one thing, the pandemic throttled supply chains, specifically the shipping of parts and components from one part of the globe to another. It also confused managers about how much to produce and therefore how many parts to order.</p>\n<p>A prime example here is what happened to the chip (semiconductor) and auto industrieswhich I wrote about last month.Car makers thought no one would buy vehicles during the pandemic and pared back their orders with chipmakers, (which were having a tough time shipping their chips anyway.) Turned out the car guys were wrong, millions of people wanted cars and trucks, but the automakers didn’t have enough chips for their cars and had to curb production. Fewer vehicles and strong demand led to higher new car prices, which cascaded to used car prices then to car rental rates. Net net, all the friction and slowness of getting things delivered now adds to costs which causes companies to raise prices.</p>\n<p>Another secondary effect of COVID which has been inflationary comes from employment,which I got into a bit last week.We all know millions were thrown out of work by COVID last year, many of whom were backstopped by government payments that could add up to $600 a week (state and federal.) These folks have been none too keen on coming back to work for minimum wage, or $290 a week. So to lure them back employers are having to pay more, which puts more money in people's pockets which allows stores for example to raise prices.</p>\n<p><b>Anti-inflation forces</b></p>\n<p>But here’s the big-time question: If COVID was temporary, and therefore its effects are temporary and inflation is one of its effects then doesn’t it follow, ipso facto, that inflation is (OK I’ll say it again), transitory?</p>\n<p>I say yes, (with a bit of a caveat.) And most economists, like Claudia Sahm, a senior fellow at the Jain Family Institute and a former Federal Reserve economist, agree. “‘Transitory’ has become a buzzword,” she says. “It is important to be more concrete about what we mean by that. We’re probably going to see in the next few months inflation numbers that are bigger than average, but as long as they keep stepping down, that’s the sign of it being transitory. If we didn’t see any sign of inflation stepping down some, it would’ve started feeling like ‘Houston, we have a problem.’”</p>\n<p>To buttress my argument beyond that above \"if-then\" syllogism, let’s take a look at why inflation has been so low for the past three decades.</p>\n<p>To me this is mostly obvious. Prices have been tamped down by the greatest anti-inflation force of our lifetime, that being technology, specifically the explosion of consumer technology. Think about it. The first wave of technology, a good example would be IBM mainframes, saved big companies money in back-office functions, savings which they mostly kept for themselves (higher profits) and their shareholders. But the four great landmark events in the advent of consumer technology; the introduction ofthe PC in 1974 (MITS Altair),the Netscape IPO of 1995,Google search in 1998,and the launch of theiPhone in 2007(I remember Steve Jobs demoing it to me like it was yesterday), greatly accelerated, broadened and deepened this deflationary trend.</p>\n<p>Not only has technology been pushing down the cost of everything from drilling for oil, to manufacturing clothes to farming, and allowing for the creation of groundbreaking (and deflationary) competitors like Uber, Airbnb and Netflix, but it also let consumers find—on their phones—the most affordable trip to Hawaii, the least expensive haircut or the best deal on Nikes.</p>\n<p>So technology has reduced the cost of almost everything and will continue to do so the rest of our lifetime. Bottom line: Unless something terrible happens, the power of technology will outweigh and outlive COVID.</p>\n<p>There is one mitigating factor and that is globalism, which is connected to both technology and COVID. Let me briefly explain.</p>\n<p>After World War II, most of humanity has become more and more connected in terms of trade, communication, travel, etc. (See supply chain above.) Technology of course was a major enabler here; better ships, planes and faster internet, all of which as it grew more potent, accelerated globalism. Another element was the introduction of political constructs like the World Trade Organization and NAFTA. (I think of the Clinton administration andChina joining the WTO in 2001as perhaps the high-water marks of globalization.)</p>\n<p>Like its technological cousin, globalism has deflationary effects particularly on the labor front as companies could more and more easily find lowest cost countries to produce goods and source materials. And like technology, globalization seemed inexorable, which it was, until it wasn’t. Political winds, manifested by the likes of Brexit and leaders like Putin, Xi Jinping, Erdogan, Bolsonaro, Duterte and of course Donald Trump have caused globalism to wane and anti-globalism and nationalism to wax.</p>\n<p>The internet too, once seen as only a great connector, has also become a global divider, as the world increasingly fractures into Chinese, U.S. and European walled digital zones when it comes to social media and search for example. Security risks, privacy, spying and hacking of course divide us further here too.</p>\n<p>So technology, which had made globalism stronger and stronger, now also makes it weaker and weaker.</p>\n<p>COVID plays a role in rethinking globalism as it exposes vulnerabilities in the supply chain. Companies that were rethinking their manufacturing in China but considering another country, are now wondering if it just makes sense to repatriate the whole shebang. Supply chains that were optimized for cost only are being rethought with security and reliability being factored in and that costs money.</p>\n<p>How significant is this decline in globalization and how permanent is it? Good questions. But my point here is whether or not \"globalism disrupted\" is transitory (!) or not, it could push prices up, (in the short and intermediate run at least), as cost is sacrificed for predictability. Longer term I say Americans are a resourceful people. We’ll figure out how to make cost effective stuff in the U.S. It’s also likely that globalism will trend upward again, though perhaps not as unfettered as it once was.</p>\n<p>More downward pressure on pricing could come from shifts in employment practices. Mark Zandi points out that “the work-from-anywhere dynamic could depress wage growth and prices. If I don’t need to work in New York anymore and could live in Tampa, it stands to reason my wage could get cut or I won’t get the same wage increase in the future.”</p>\n<p>And so what is Zandi’s take on transitory? “What we’re observing now is prices going back to pre-pandemic,” he says. “The price spikes we’re experiencing now will continue for the next few months through summer but certainly by the end of year, this time next year, they will have disappeared. I do think underlying inflation will be higher post-pandemic than pre-pandemic, but that’s a feature not a bug.”</p>\n<p>I don’t disagree. To me it’s simple: The technology wave I’ve described above is bigger than COVID and bigger than the rise and fall of globalism. And that is why, ladies and gentlemen, I believe inflation will be transitory, certainly in the long run. (Though I’m well aware of whatJohn Maynard Keynes said about the long run.)</p>","source":"lsy1612507957220","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>Answering the great inflation question of our time</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\">\nAnswering the great inflation question of our time\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-20 09:19 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/answering-the-great-inflation-question-of-our-time-114153460.html><strong>finance.yahoo</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Prices of everything; a house in Phoenix, a Ford F-150, a plane ticket to New York, have all gone up.

That much is true.\nUnfortunately pretty much everything else about inflation—a red hot topic these days—is conjecture. And that’s vexing, not just for the dismal scientists (aka economists), but for all of us, because whether or not prices are really rising, by how much and for how long, has massive implications in our lives. Or as Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, says: “Inflation is one of the mysteries of economic study and thought. A difficult thing to gauge and forecast and get right. That’s why the risks are high.”\nThe current debate over inflation really revolves around two questions: First, is this current spate of inflation, just that, a spate—or to use Wall Street’s buzzword of the moment, “transitory,”—or not? (Just to give you an idea of how buzzy, when I Google the word “transitory” the search engine suggests “inflation” after it.) And second, transitory (aka temporary) inflation or not, what does it suggest for the economy and markets?\nBefore I get into that, let me lay out what’s going on with prices right now. First, know that inflation,which peaked in 1980 at an annualized rate of 13.55%,has been tame for quite some time, specifically 4% or less for nearly 30 years. Which means that anyone 40 years old or younger has no experience with inflation other than maybe from an Econ 101 textbook. Obviously that could be a problem.\nAs an aside I remember President Ford in 1974 trying to jawbone inflation down with his \"Whip Inflation Now\" campaign, which featured“Win” buttons,earringsand evenugly sweaters.None of this worked and it took draconian measures by Fed Chair Paul Volcker (raising rates and targeting money supply,as described by Former President of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, William Poole)to eventually tame inflation and keep it under wraps for all those years.\nUntil now perhaps. Last week theLabor Department reported that consumer prices (the CPI, or consumer price index) rose 5% in May,the fastest annual rate in nearly 13 years—which was when the economy was overheating from the housing boom which subsequently went bust and sent the economy off a cliff and into the Great Recession. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, was up 3.8%, the biggest increase since May 1992. (For the record, the likelihood of the economy tanking right now is de minimis.)\n\nUsed car and truck prices are a major driver of inflation, climbing 7.3% last month and 29.7% over the past year. New car prices are up too, which have pushed upshares of Ford and GM a remarkable 40% plus this year.Clearly Americans want to buy vehicles to go on vacation and get back to work. And Yahoo Finance’sJanna Herron reportsthat rents are rising at their fastest pace in 15 years.\nTo be sure, not all prices are climbing.As Yahoo Finance’s Rick Newman points out,prices are not up much at all for health care, education and are basically flat for technology, including computers, smartphones and internet service (an important point which we’ll get back to.)\nBut that’s the counterpoint really. Americans are obsessed with cars, housing is critical and many of us are experiencing sticker shock booking travel this summer. Higher prices are front and center. Wall Street too is in a tizzy about inflation, and concerns about it and more importantly Federal Reserve policy in response to inflation (see below), sent stocks lower with the S&P 500 down 1.91% this week, its worst week since February.\nGiven this backdrop, the tension (such as it is) was high when the Fed met this week to deliver its forecast and for Chair Jay Powell to answer questions from the media. Or at least so said hedge fund honcho Paul Tudor Jones,who characterized the proceedings on CNBCas “the most important meeting in [Chairman] Jay Powell’s career, certainly the most important Fed meeting of the past four or five years.” Jones was critical of the Fed, which he believes is now stimulating the economy unnecessarily by keeping interest rates low and by buying financial assets. Unnecessarily, Jones says, because the economy is already running hot and needs no support. The Fed (which is in the transitory camp when it comes to inflation) risks overheating the economy by creating runaway inflation, according to PTJ.\nNow I don’t see eye to eye with Jones on this, though I should point out, he's a billionaire from investing in financial markets, and let’s just say I’m not. I should also point out that Jones, 66, is in fact old enough to remember inflation, never mind that as a young man he called the 1987 stock market crash. So we should all ignore Jones at our peril.\nAs for what the Fed put forth this past Wednesday, well it wasn’t much, signaling an expectation ofraising interest rates twice by the end of 2023(yes, that is down the road.) And Powell, who’s become much more adept at not rippling the waters these days after some rougher forays earlier in his tenure, didn’t drop any bombshells in the presser.\nWhich brings us to the question of why the Federal Reserve isn’t so concerned about inflation and thinks it is mostly—here’s that word again—transitory. To answer that, we need to first address why prices are rising right now, which can be summed up in one very familiar abbreviation: COVID-19. When COVID hit last spring the economy collapsed, which crushed demand in sectors like leisure, travel and retail. Now the economy is roaring back to life and businesses can raise prices, certainly over 2020 levels.\n“We clearly should’ve expected it,” says William Spriggs, chief economist at the AFL-CIO and a professor of economics at Howard University. “You can’t shut down the economy and think you turn on the switch [without some inflation].”\n“We had a pandemic that forced an artificial shutdown of the economy in a way that even the collapse of the financial system and the housing market didn’t, and we had a snapback at a rate we’ve never seen before—not because of the fundamentals driving recovery but because of government,” says Joel Naroff, president and chief economist of Naroff Economics.\nCOVID had other secondary effects on the economy though, besides just ultimately producing a snapback. For one thing, the pandemic throttled supply chains, specifically the shipping of parts and components from one part of the globe to another. It also confused managers about how much to produce and therefore how many parts to order.\nA prime example here is what happened to the chip (semiconductor) and auto industrieswhich I wrote about last month.Car makers thought no one would buy vehicles during the pandemic and pared back their orders with chipmakers, (which were having a tough time shipping their chips anyway.) Turned out the car guys were wrong, millions of people wanted cars and trucks, but the automakers didn’t have enough chips for their cars and had to curb production. Fewer vehicles and strong demand led to higher new car prices, which cascaded to used car prices then to car rental rates. Net net, all the friction and slowness of getting things delivered now adds to costs which causes companies to raise prices.\nAnother secondary effect of COVID which has been inflationary comes from employment,which I got into a bit last week.We all know millions were thrown out of work by COVID last year, many of whom were backstopped by government payments that could add up to $600 a week (state and federal.) These folks have been none too keen on coming back to work for minimum wage, or $290 a week. So to lure them back employers are having to pay more, which puts more money in people's pockets which allows stores for example to raise prices.\nAnti-inflation forces\nBut here’s the big-time question: If COVID was temporary, and therefore its effects are temporary and inflation is one of its effects then doesn’t it follow, ipso facto, that inflation is (OK I’ll say it again), transitory?\nI say yes, (with a bit of a caveat.) And most economists, like Claudia Sahm, a senior fellow at the Jain Family Institute and a former Federal Reserve economist, agree. “‘Transitory’ has become a buzzword,” she says. “It is important to be more concrete about what we mean by that. We’re probably going to see in the next few months inflation numbers that are bigger than average, but as long as they keep stepping down, that’s the sign of it being transitory. If we didn’t see any sign of inflation stepping down some, it would’ve started feeling like ‘Houston, we have a problem.’”\nTo buttress my argument beyond that above \"if-then\" syllogism, let’s take a look at why inflation has been so low for the past three decades.\nTo me this is mostly obvious. Prices have been tamped down by the greatest anti-inflation force of our lifetime, that being technology, specifically the explosion of consumer technology. Think about it. The first wave of technology, a good example would be IBM mainframes, saved big companies money in back-office functions, savings which they mostly kept for themselves (higher profits) and their shareholders. But the four great landmark events in the advent of consumer technology; the introduction ofthe PC in 1974 (MITS Altair),the Netscape IPO of 1995,Google search in 1998,and the launch of theiPhone in 2007(I remember Steve Jobs demoing it to me like it was yesterday), greatly accelerated, broadened and deepened this deflationary trend.\nNot only has technology been pushing down the cost of everything from drilling for oil, to manufacturing clothes to farming, and allowing for the creation of groundbreaking (and deflationary) competitors like Uber, Airbnb and Netflix, but it also let consumers find—on their phones—the most affordable trip to Hawaii, the least expensive haircut or the best deal on Nikes.\nSo technology has reduced the cost of almost everything and will continue to do so the rest of our lifetime. Bottom line: Unless something terrible happens, the power of technology will outweigh and outlive COVID.\nThere is one mitigating factor and that is globalism, which is connected to both technology and COVID. Let me briefly explain.\nAfter World War II, most of humanity has become more and more connected in terms of trade, communication, travel, etc. (See supply chain above.) Technology of course was a major enabler here; better ships, planes and faster internet, all of which as it grew more potent, accelerated globalism. Another element was the introduction of political constructs like the World Trade Organization and NAFTA. (I think of the Clinton administration andChina joining the WTO in 2001as perhaps the high-water marks of globalization.)\nLike its technological cousin, globalism has deflationary effects particularly on the labor front as companies could more and more easily find lowest cost countries to produce goods and source materials. And like technology, globalization seemed inexorable, which it was, until it wasn’t. Political winds, manifested by the likes of Brexit and leaders like Putin, Xi Jinping, Erdogan, Bolsonaro, Duterte and of course Donald Trump have caused globalism to wane and anti-globalism and nationalism to wax.\nThe internet too, once seen as only a great connector, has also become a global divider, as the world increasingly fractures into Chinese, U.S. and European walled digital zones when it comes to social media and search for example. Security risks, privacy, spying and hacking of course divide us further here too.\nSo technology, which had made globalism stronger and stronger, now also makes it weaker and weaker.\nCOVID plays a role in rethinking globalism as it exposes vulnerabilities in the supply chain. Companies that were rethinking their manufacturing in China but considering another country, are now wondering if it just makes sense to repatriate the whole shebang. Supply chains that were optimized for cost only are being rethought with security and reliability being factored in and that costs money.\nHow significant is this decline in globalization and how permanent is it? Good questions. But my point here is whether or not \"globalism disrupted\" is transitory (!) or not, it could push prices up, (in the short and intermediate run at least), as cost is sacrificed for predictability. Longer term I say Americans are a resourceful people. We’ll figure out how to make cost effective stuff in the U.S. It’s also likely that globalism will trend upward again, though perhaps not as unfettered as it once was.\nMore downward pressure on pricing could come from shifts in employment practices. Mark Zandi points out that “the work-from-anywhere dynamic could depress wage growth and prices. If I don’t need to work in New York anymore and could live in Tampa, it stands to reason my wage could get cut or I won’t get the same wage increase in the future.”\nAnd so what is Zandi’s take on transitory? “What we’re observing now is prices going back to pre-pandemic,” he says. “The price spikes we’re experiencing now will continue for the next few months through summer but certainly by the end of year, this time next year, they will have disappeared. I do think underlying inflation will be higher post-pandemic than pre-pandemic, but that’s a feature not a bug.”\nI don’t disagree. To me it’s simple: The technology wave I’ve described above is bigger than COVID and bigger than the rise and fall of globalism. And that is why, ladies and gentlemen, I believe inflation will be transitory, certainly in the long run.
