@skythelimit:Intel MUST release its new product and quickly; it actually destroys the AMD product on a price point and operational perspective. Todays comments from the analyst; same guy that downgraded intel in recent weeks; is making his entire thesis on the idea that Intel will be late to market; its the same guy that harassed Pat on the call with a question he didn't get the perfect answer to and made huge conclusions.If intel gets its product to market; saphire that is; prepare for intel to do very well; but it will be poopooed on by the streat through the whole process. The street hates this stock. Its going to be a great chance to buy a fundamentally increasing stock while the price may decrease. Same thing is true over at boeing.$Intel(INTC)$

And then again, they lost control of it. So I think, again, he has to do something similar,&#34; Groen said.</p><p>Here&#39;s a look at what experts will be watching for when the Fed concludes the two-day meeting on Wednesday.</p><h2>Slowing down the pace of rate hikes</h2><p>The Fed is widely expected to slow to to raise its benchmark rate by a half percentage point, a slower pace than the four 0.75 point rate hikes seen since June. This will bring the Fed&#39;s benchmark rate to a range of 4.25%-4.5%.</p><p>While some economists argued that the strong November jobs report put a 0.75 point hike back on the table, most don&#39;t agree. &#34;For all intents and purposes, that ship sailed at the November FOMC meeting ,&#34; said Tim Duy, economist at SGH Macro Advisors. &#34;A June-like adjustment isn&#39;t happening here,&#34; he added, referring to the Fed&#39;s surprising last-minute decision to engineer the first 0.75 percentage point hike.</p><h2>Signaling more hikes to come</h2><p>To keep from sounding dovish with the slower rate hikes, Powell and the Fed will highlight again that rates need to go higher.</p><p>Economists said the Fed will retain a key phrase from the November statement that the central bankers expected &#34;ongoing increases&#34; in the benchmark interest rate.</p><p>Ellen Zentner, chief U.S. economist at <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTLW\">Morgan Stanley</a>, argued the Fed might change the wording to &#34;some further increase&#34; in the benchmark rate will be appropriate in order to give the Fed flexibility.</p><p>Avery Shenfeld, chief economist of CIBC World Markets, thinks that it is premature for the Fed to soften the wording.</p><p>&#34;When you still have another 50 basis points to go that you&#39;re pretty sure you&#39;re going to do and you might have to do more than that, you&#39;re not going to change the wording,&#34; said Shenfeld, in an interview.</p><p>Shenfeld thinks the Fed can stop hiking at 5% and hold until 2024.</p><h2>How high will rates go and how long will they stay there?</h2><p>In the last &#34;dot plot&#34; in September, the Fed forecast that the top end of its benchmark rate would have a top out at 4.75%.  Groen of TD Securities says the Fed&#39;s new dot plot will push up the terminal rate up, but only slightly to 5%.</p><p>In order to move the median higher, there has to be a really big move in the distribution of the dots, Groen said.</p><p>The key for markets is how many Fed officials pencil in their dot above 5%, Groen said.  In September, no Fed officials projected the terminal rate above 5%.</p><p>Some economists think the Fed might push up the high end of the terminal range to 5.25%.</p><p>In order to try to underline that it intends to hold rates at a high level, the Fed will project no rate cuts in 2023, economists said.</p><h2>More pain on the table</h2><p>With the Fed projecting higher interest rates, economists expect the Fed forecast to reflect more pain for the economy.</p><p>&#34;From 2023-2025, we expect that GDP growth will be revised lower, the unemployment rate will be revised higher and inflation will also be revised lower,&#34; said economists at Bank of America, in a note to clients.</p><p>In September, the Fed projected the unemployment rate would rise to 4.4% in 2023 before slowly coming down. The unemployment rate was 3.7% in November.</p><p>The market needs to see a forecast of softer inflation but not a deep recession, Shenfeld said.</p><p>The market is thinking that inflation is going to come down quickly and that growth will also thinking that the economy will be so weak the Fed will have to come to the rescue, Shenfeld said.</p><h2>Press conference</h2><p>With so many uncertainties facing the Fed, &#34;the press conference is likely to be a doozy,&#34; said Dan North, senior economist at trade credit insurer Allianz Trade North America.</p><p>&#34;The statement is carefully prepared, carefully worded. In the press conference, it is where Powell might reveal more about what the thinking is and therefore might  reveal more about the future path of tightening might be and when there might eventually be a stop and a pivot.&#34;</p><p>&#34;We&#39;re at the precipice now,&#34; with the Fed perhaps not far from stopping, he added.</p><p>One way to measure Powell&#39;s hawkishness is how he talks about the risk of overtightening.</p><p>At his press conference in November,  Powell said that if the Fed were to overtighten, &#34;we could use our tools to support the economy.&#34;</p><p>Then markets took a dovish signal from Powell&#39;s comment a week ago that the central bank didn&#39;t want to overtighten.</p><p>&#34;We should expect a more austere tone in December,&#34; said Krishna Guha, vice chairman of Evercore ISI, in a note to clients.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

In the press conference, it is where Powell might reveal more about what the thinking is and therefore might  reveal more about the future path of tightening might be and when there might eventually be a stop and a pivot.\"\"We're at the precipice now,\" with the Fed perhaps not far from stopping, he added.One way to measure Powell's hawkishness is how he talks about the risk of overtightening.At his press conference in November,  Powell said that if the Fed were to overtighten, \"we could use our tools to support the economy.\"Then markets took a dovish signal from Powell's comment a week ago that the central bank didn't want to overtighten.\"We should expect a more austere tone in December,\" said Krishna Guha, vice chairman of Evercore ISI, in a note to clients.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":562,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9914920134,"gmtCreate":1665161673828,"gmtModify":1676537566687,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Why","listText":"Why","text":"Why","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9914920134","repostId":"2273803113","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2273803113","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1665131530,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2273803113?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-10-07 16:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple: Why I Bought More At $140","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2273803113","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryI placed a limit buy order for Apple at $140 in September.

The alert informed them that I placed a limit buy order for Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) at $140 and mythought process (the stock price then was about $150.5). A price of $140 corresponds to about 22x of its FW PE. To me, any valuation near 20x is very attractive for a stock with ROCE (return on capital employed) near 100% like AAPL. At about 100% ROCE, a 5% investment rate would provide 5% organic real growth rates (i.e., before inflation adjustments). And a 22x PE would provide about 5% owners earnings yield, leading to a total return close to double digits. For a stock like AAPL, I am always happy to buy/add when the total annual return is close to 10% or above. A 10% return is healthy enough to start with. Once you adjust for the risks (and I consider the risks from AAPL similar to treasury bonds), a 10% annual return is almost 3x of what you can get from bonds in the long term.</p><p>Also, to put things under historical perspective, a valuation around 22x is also below the historical average of 24.7x in recent years by about 10% (11% to be exact), leaving a comfortable margin of safety. And also, bear in mind that the stock was so obviously before 2021 and those levels are outliers in my mind. So, the historical average of 24.75x is already biased.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0abaa433019690a8212d9df8d71726d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"369\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><p>All told, thanks to market volatility, the stock price dipped below $140 a few days later on Sept 30. The order is triggered, and now I own more AAPL shares. I of course do not want to pretend that I have any idea that its price would actually dip below $140 or not. However, I do have a good sense of its intrinsic value and the magnitude of market gyrations. And as a long-term and patient investor, I do know that 22x PE is a good deal for a stock like AAPL.</p><h2>Near-term challenges</h2><p>There is no shortage of external challenges in the near term. And these challenges can be substantial, too. They will continue to weigh on performance over the near term. These challenges include new variants of COVID-19, the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, unfavorable currency exchange rates, and high inflation and rising interest rates. In particular, you can see the effects that these headwinds have exerted on its margins. Over the past few quarters, its gross margin shrank by more than 200 basis points from a peak of 43.76% to 41.04%. Net profit margin shrank even more, by more than 450 basis points from a peak of 27.9% to 23.4%. China, its key market, had to lock down several of its key cities in the H1 of the year due to COVID-19, and the ongoing pandemic situation probably would lead to more lockdowns, which have impacted its sales and production and would very likely continue to in the near future.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3f2a9e2475e37539082fb89230bb995b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"432\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><h2>AAPL and Buffettism</h2><p>However, as Buffett commented, if you have to closely follow the day-to-day stuff of a stock, you should not own it in the first place. He was once asked about his AAPL position during a Yahoo! Finance interview. You can see the full interview here, full of typical Buffett-style wisdom and highly recommended. The following is an excerpt and the highlights are added by me.</p><blockquote><i>Yahoo Finance: how closely do you follow the company? You know, people are concerned they really have not introduced any new products.</i></blockquote><blockquote><i>Buffett:</i> <i><b>Well, if you have to closely follow the company, you should not own it in the first place. If you buy a business, say you buy a farm, do you go up and look every couple of weeks to see how far the corn has grown up?</b></i> <i>Do you worry too much about whether somebody says this year is going to be a year of low corn prices because exports are being affected or something? You know, it does not grow faster if I go and stare at it…</i><i><b>AlthoughI do care over the years that it is well tended to in terms of rotating crops. And I hope yields get better.</b></i></blockquote><p>In my mind, this wisdom is truer for Apple than anything else. A high-yield farm is what exactly it is. As a high-yield farm, investors should have the perspective to overlook its daily (or even yearly) noises and focus on the long term, as detailed next.</p><h2>Business outlook and projected returns</h2><p>I am optimistic about its future. The company has displayed remarkable resilience in the face of the difficult operating backdrop in the past. And I am certain that this time is no different. The inflation or drag from foreign exchange rates may worsen in the near term. But remember, Buffett&#39;s other wisdom is<i>not</i>to pick stocks based on macroeconomic parameters - which are totally unpredictable and out of anyone&#39;s control.</p><p>Altogether, consensus estimates look for share net to come in around $6.46 in 2023. And again, at a price of $140, the PE would be about 22x. Based on the consensus estimates, the growth rate would be about 4.6% CAGR in the next few years, which agrees with my back-of-envelope estimate closely. As aforementioned, at about 100% ROCE, a 5% investment rate would provide 5% organic real growth rates.</p><p>All told, a 22x entry PE, combined with a ~5% growth rate, should provide about 10% total return for a long-term business owner.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d4adcc41419bcccde9ab540b89f003c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"260\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><p>Notably, services-related revenues should continue to advance and represent a strong engine for future growth.

Broadening the timeframe a bit, the growth in its revenues from services has grown more than 230% since 2017, also far outpacing the growth of its product sales (which increased by about 160%). In its latest earnings report, Tim Cook reported a mind-boggling total of 816 million paid subscriptions across its various services ranging from Apple Music, iCloud, and Apple TV+.</p><p>Going forward, I see such a large user base to further grow given Apple&#39;s popularity and premium status. In my view, the market underestimates (or misunderstands) its SaaS potential. As seen from the chart below, it is trading at a sizeable discount relative to other more &#34;standard&#34; SaaS stocks. To wit, in terms of FY1 PE, it is trading slightly below Microsoft Corporation by about 4%, about 20% below Intuit Inc, and more than 27% below Salesforce Inc.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/267e4208372cf220c56b8cfcab38cd7c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"206\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><h2>Risks and final thoughts</h2><p>To recap, there is no doubt that the business faces many short-term challenges.

Oracle</h2><p>Oracle, the world&#39;s top database management software company, had once been considered an also-ran of the tech sector. Its sales of on-premise software had been cooling off across the saturated market, and cloud-based challengers like <b>Amazon</b> and <b>Microsoft </b>were threatening to disrupt its aging business.</p><p>But instead of sitting still and becoming obsolete, Oracle transformed its on-premise software into cloud-based services. It also expanded that sticky ecosystem with enterprise resource planning (ERP) tools through several big acquisitions. Those efforts were costly, but they enabled Oracle to consistently grow its revenues again and avoid becoming the next <b>IBM</b>.</p><p>Oracle&#39;s revenue growth stalled out in fiscal 2019 and 2020 (which ended in May of the calendar year) as it implemented those turnaround strategies. But its revenue subsequently rose 4% in fiscal 2021 and 5% in fiscal 2022. It expects its cloud revenues to grow 30% organically in fiscal 2023, accelerating from its 22% growth in fiscal 2022, while analysts expect its total revenue (including its recent acquisition of Cerner) to rise 17%.</p><p>Oracle&#39;s earnings per share have also risen consistently, partly driven by buybacks, and analysts expect its earnings (including Cerner) to grow 67% this year. That&#39;s an impressive growth rate for a stock that trades at less than 20 times forward earnings. It&#39;s also reduced its share count by 45% over the past 10 years and pays a decent forward dividend yield of 1.6%.</p><h2>2. General Mills</h2><p>General Mills sells over 100 brands of packaged food products, including Cheerios, Yoplait, Häagen-Dazs, Betty Crocker, Green Giant, and Pillsbury. It also sells premium pet products through its Blue Buffalo subsidiary.</p><p>General Mills is a great stock to own during a downturn for three reasons. First, its business is resistant to inflation, recessions, and other macroeconomic headwinds because people (and their pets) need to eat. For fiscal 2023 (which started this May), General Mills expects its organic sales to increase 4% to 5% and for its adjusted earnings per share (EPS) to grow 0% to 3% in constant currency terms. That stable outlook suggests it can comfortably pass on some of its inflationary costs to consumers with price hikes while protecting its bottom-line growth with tighter cost-cutting measures.</p><p>Second, it&#39;s firmly profitable and pays out nearly half its earnings to fund its forward dividend yield of 2.8%. The company and its predecessor have also paid out uninterrupted dividends for more than a century. Lastly, General Mills&#39; stock is still cheap at 19 times forward earnings. That low valuation arguably makes it more attractive than comparable packaged foods stalwarts like <b>Coca-Cola</b> and <b>PepsiCo</b>, which currently trade at 26 and 27 times forward earnings, respectively.</p><h2>3. LVMH</h2><p>Lastly, high-end luxury stocks are good defensive plays during market downturns because affluent customers are more resistant to macro headwinds. My favorite play in that sector is LVMH, the world&#39;s largest luxury company. The French conglomerate owns 75 houses across five markets -- wines and spirits, fashion and leather goods, perfumes and cosmetics, watches and jewelry, and selective retailing -- and its top brands include Louis Vuitton, Dior, Fendi, Loewe, Bvlgari, Tiffany &amp; Co., Hennessy, and Sephora.</p><p>LVMH experienced a slowdown during the pandemic as it temporarily closed many of its stores. But in 2021, its revenue surged 44% as its net profit soared 156%.

Its stock is reasonably valued at 25 times next year&#39;s earnings -- especially considering that its rival <b>Hermès</b> trades at 50 times forward earnings -- and it pays a decent forward yield of 1.7%.</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 Stocks to Buy During a Sell-Off</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 Stocks to Buy During a Sell-Off\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-20 07:45 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/19/3-top-stocks-to-buy-during-a-sell-off/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The S&P 500 has rallied about 10% over the past month as declining gas prices and signs of supply chain improvements have suggested that brighter days are ahead.

The monthly event includes $975 billion of S&amp;P 500-linked contracts and $430 billion of derivatives across single stocks scheduled to run out, according to estimates by Goldman Sachs Group Inc. strategist Rocky Fishman.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d7ed781d0bf50152207dcbc89ae0db3\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"528\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Stocks have restored roughly $7 trillion in values since mid-June, as what began as a short squeeze cascaded into a buying spree by those who exited equities during the first-half carnage amid fears that the Fed’s aggressive inflation-fighting campaign could tip the economy into a recession. Shares have since recovered as data showed a robust labor market and cooler-than-expected inflation.</p><p>Along the way, traders flocked to call options to catch up with the surprising rebound. In balancing their books, options dealers were stuck in “long gamma” positions that left them needing to go against the prevailing equity trend to maintain a neutral market exposure. Thanks in part to the process, peace returned in the market. The Cboe Volatility Index, or VIX, has averaged 21 in August, on course for its lowest level since November.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7a72b5ee48aed2efd4d309073c4ef802\" tg-width=\"698\" tg-height=\"392\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Broadly speaking, bullish contracts have been changing hands faster than bearish ones. The Cboe equity put-call ratio’s 10-day average hovered near a four-month low, a sign of growing interest in upside wagers.</p><p>Traders will try to push the S&amp;P 500 toward 4,300 in order to get their options contracts to pay off, according to Brent Kochuba, founder of analytic service SpotGamma. Any failure to hit this threshold would suggest the latest rally is losing momentum, potentially inviting sellers. The index added 0.2% to close at 4,283.74 Thursday.</p><p>“Everyone is on the ‘call side’ of the boat,” said Kochuba.</p><p>Charlie McElligott, a cross-asset strategist at Nomura Securities International, expects Friday’s OpEx to open the door for bigger price swings after the buffer from dealer hedging is reduced. He sees potential for the market to move in either direction.</p><p>Should inflation come in hotter than expected and Fed policy makers ratchet up their hawkish rhetoric, that’d trigger turmoil across assets, he says. On the other hand, barring any negative macro shocks, money managers are under pressure to keep chasing the rally given their relatively low equity positioning.</p><p>“My daily communications with clients continues to ‘hate’ this rally who remain wrong-sided and a source of ‘buyers higher,’” he wrote in a note Wednesday.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1584095487587","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The monthly event includes $975 billion of S&P 500-linked contracts and $430 billion of derivatives across single stocks scheduled to run out, according to estimates by Goldman Sachs Group Inc. strategist Rocky Fishman.Stocks have restored roughly $7 trillion in values since mid-June, as what began as a short squeeze cascaded into a buying spree by those who exited equities during the first-half carnage amid fears that the Fed’s aggressive inflation-fighting campaign could tip the economy into a recession. Shares have since recovered as data showed a robust labor market and cooler-than-expected inflation.Along the way, traders flocked to call options to catch up with the surprising rebound. In balancing their books, options dealers were stuck in “long gamma” positions that left them needing to go against the prevailing equity trend to maintain a neutral market exposure. Thanks in part to the process, peace returned in the market. The Cboe Volatility Index, or VIX, has averaged 21 in August, on course for its lowest level since November.Broadly speaking, bullish contracts have been changing hands faster than bearish ones. The Cboe equity put-call ratio’s 10-day average hovered near a four-month low, a sign of growing interest in upside wagers.Traders will try to push the S&P 500 toward 4,300 in order to get their options contracts to pay off, according to Brent Kochuba, founder of analytic service SpotGamma. Any failure to hit this threshold would suggest the latest rally is losing momentum, potentially inviting sellers. The index added 0.2% to close at 4,283.74 Thursday.“Everyone is on the ‘call side’ of the boat,” said Kochuba.Charlie McElligott, a cross-asset strategist at Nomura Securities International, expects Friday’s OpEx to open the door for bigger price swings after the buffer from dealer hedging is reduced. He sees potential for the market to move in either direction.Should inflation come in hotter than expected and Fed policy makers ratchet up their hawkish rhetoric, that’d trigger turmoil across assets, he says. On the other hand, barring any negative macro shocks, money managers are under pressure to keep chasing the rally given their relatively low equity positioning.“My daily communications with clients continues to ‘hate’ this rally who remain wrong-sided and a source of ‘buyers higher,’” he wrote in a note Wednesday.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":556,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9991850054,"gmtCreate":1660810962680,"gmtModify":1676536403980,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"k","listText":"k","text":"k","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9991850054","repostId":"1115956301","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1115956301","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1660805777,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1115956301?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-18 14:56","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"NIO: Delisting, Supply Constraints, And A Faltering Chinese Economy","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1115956301","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryNIO has been trading range-bound at the $20-level in recent months following a brief surge in","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>NIO has been trading range-bound at the $20-level in recent months following a brief surge in easing COVID disruptions in China.</li><li>While its fundamentals remain resilient, its valuation outlook continues to be constrained by risks pertaining to a potential delisting from the NYSE, ongoing supply constraints, and a slowing Chinese economy.</li><li>The following analysis will explore the different risks weighing on the &#34;fundamental&#34; and &#34;multiple&#34; factors that drive NIO&#39;s valuation prospects, as well as their related implications.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7a38855d4d8edc529ec25a5e46399631\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"686\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Michael Vi</span></p><p>The NIO stock (NYSE:NIO) has been range-bound at the $20-level in recent months after the run-up through June on accelerating production and delivery ramp-up improvements as China&#39;s monthslong COVID disruptions to supply chains started to ease. Other positive catalyststhat have supported the stock in its current $20-range after its climb from an all-time low in the $10-range in mid-May include favourable policy support from the central and municipal Chinese governments on shoring up electric vehicle (&#34;EV&#34;) adoption in the region, as well as NIO&#39;s aggressive growth plans such as the upcoming introduction of new sub-brands to better penetrate mass market opportunities.</p><p>Yet, ongoing weakness in economic sentiment spanning a worsening domestic property slump and slowing consumption in China, as well as the fluid COVID situation remain prominent risks weighing on the NIO stock&#39;s near-term performance. The recent slew of voluntary exits from U.S. exchanges by state-backed companies have also renewed concerns of delisting risks stemming from the &#34;Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act&#34; (&#34;HFCAA&#34;) enforced by the U.S. SEC.</p><p>Heading into NIO&#39;s second quarter earnings call, the key focus area beyond its production and delivery ramp-up efforts is where the Chinese EV maker stands when it comes to managing regulatory risks, as well as how it will fare within the increasingly competitive landscape while broader macro uncertainties continue to worsen. On one hand, NIO&#39;s progress in ramping up volumes - a key focus area for most automakers within the industry&#39;s supply-driven operational environment - will be a core driver of the &#34;fundamental&#34; factor weighing on its valuation prospects. Meanwhile, on the other hand, NIO&#39;s position amid mounting regulatory risks and broad-based market uncertainties will determine the &#34;multiple&#34; factor weighing on its valuation prospects.</p><p>The following analysis will explore both perspectives and their related implications on the NIO stock&#39;s outlook. We continue to caution regulatory risks as the largest factor that has been capping the stock&#39;s ability in unlocking its true valuation upsides, despite continued demonstration of resilient fundamentals from the underlying business.</p><p><b>2Q22 and July&#39;22 Production and Deliveries</b></p><p>As previously discussed in our most recent coverage on the stock, NIO&#39;s record-setting deliveries during the second quarter, especially in June, continues to underscore its impressive strength in re-ramping productions as the worst of supply and logistics constraints resulting from recent COVID restrictions in core Chinese manufacturing hubs start to ease.</p><p>Specifically, productions of the newest ET7 sedan, which began in March, was a highlight with 40x growth during the second quarter. Despite a slight setback in July due to limited supply of casting parts used in the production of its ET7 sedans, NIO has maintained momentum in ramping up productions with 2,473 units of the premium electric sedans delivered in the first month of 3Q22. This represents a delivery run-rate of at least 7,400 units of the ET7 in the current quarter (approx. +10% q/q), especially given its ongoing efforts in &#34;working closely with supply chain partners [to] accelerate vehicle production in the following months of the third quarter of 2022&#34;. The positive results continue to underscore NIO&#39;s strength in navigating through unprecedented disruptions from supply chain bottlenecks across the auto industry.</p><p><b>Key Focus Areas Weighing on NIO&#39;s Fundamentals</b></p><p>Looking ahead, NIO is expected to post an even stronger second half of the year, with the introduction of a strong product pipeline that adds the newest ES7 SUV to its sales mix later this month, alongside updated 2022 ES8, ES6 and EC6 SUVs. Favourable policy support in China will also continue to be a boon to NIO&#39;s operational performance in the second half of the year.</p><p><b>1. Near- to Medium-Term Focus</b></p><p>Specifically, from a fundamental perspective, the key focus area remains on NIO&#39;s ability to ramp up productions and deliveries within the supply-driven auto industry as mentioned in the earlier section. The lack of supplies and lingering logistics constraints from pandemic-era disruptions have upended the auto industry over the past year, especially for Chinese OEMs due to the region&#39;s strict COVID Zero policy which remain a pronounced downside risk for NIO. This is further corroborated by the Chinese EV maker&#39;s struggle with supply shortages in July that have impacted its ET7 sedan and EC6 SUV volumes per its latest delivery update, highlighting how NIO&#39;s production and delivery progress have largely been determined by &#34;supply availability&#34; over the past year.</p><p>Investors will remain focused on updates regarding NIO&#39;s working relationship with suppliers at the EV maker&#39;s upcoming earnings call to gauge whether production can accelerate through the third quarter and the remainder of the year as management had promised. Another key focus area remains on whether any positive progress has been made since NIO&#39;s July delivery update press release, which in our view would imply improving fundamentals, lifting the stock from its current range-bound situation.</p><p><b>2. Longer-Term Focus</b></p><p>Over the longer-term, NIO&#39;s progress on growing its market share through globalization, and primarily, domestic expansion with newly planned sub-brands to better penetrate mass market opportunities will be the core piece in bolstering its fundamental performance. China remains the largest EV market, underscoring NIO&#39;s growth opportunities ahead as it works to extend its reach beyond the premium market.</p><p>Specifically, China is expected to sell a new record of at least 6 million EVs by the end of the year, which would be double of the 3 million EVs sold in 2021. In July, China&#39;s EV sales represented more than a quarter of total new car registrations, underscoring the rapid rebound in demand following stringent COVID mobility restrictions in the preceding months. This continues to serve favourable tailwinds for domestic EV makers like NIO, which currently represent close to a fifth of China&#39;s EV sales, and growing. The statistics also validate current market observations of no material demand destruction observed across the Chinese EV market despite the recent economic slowdown, underscoring the industry&#39;s resilience and sustained growth as supply constraints - the primarily roadblock to further expansion - continue to ease.</p><p>To better penetrate the growing domestic opportunities, NIO has been diversifying its portfolio of premium offerings to address demand across various price and vehicle segments, as observed through its recent introduction of newly designed mid-sized SUVs, as well as premium sedans. More importantly, NIO&#39;s upcoming launch of new lower-priced sub-brands focused on the mass market will further its fundamental growth over the longer-term.</p><p>As discussed in detail in one of our previous coverages, NIO&#39;s introduction of a new sub-brand priced in the range of RMB 200,000 ($30,000) to RMB 300,000 ($44,000) will be critical in extending its reach beyond the premium EV market in China:</p><blockquote>Pertaining to NIO&#39;s new mass market brand, which was first mentioned in August 2021, the Chinese EV maker confirmed that it has entered into a &#34;strategic cooperation agreement with Hefei on the second phase of vehicle production plant and the facilities for key components at NeoPark&#34; in early May. However, specific details over the product pipeline and related pricing remain uncertain. To date, NIO has only disclosed that the new sub-brand will be a direct competition to Tesla&#39;s best-selling Model 3 and Model Y in China, but at a 10% discount in the RMB 200,000 ($30,000) to RMB 300,000 ($44,000) price range.</blockquote><blockquote>Source: &#34;EV Roundup: Everything from Tesla to NIO, U.S. to China&#34;</blockquote><p>Start of productions and customer deliveries on the sub-brand offerings are expected to begin in the second half of 2024, supported by internally-developed 800-volt battery packs that are expected to launch around the same time. This continues to underscore NIO&#39;s strengths in maximizing returns on its investments in building out a vertically integrated business model. We view the internalized production of 800-volt battery packs, which offer better range and faster charge times, as a positive development in reducing reliance from its sole third-party battery supplier CATL amid the increasingly constrained raw material supply chain, while also aiding better cost controls to sustain continued auto margin expansion over the longer-term.</p><p>In addition to the highly-anticipated sub-brand that NIO first introduced and confirmed in August 2021, there have also recently been reports circulating about NIO&#39;s plans on expanding further with a second sub-brand priced in the RMB 100,000 ($15,000) range to better compete against SAIC-GM-Wuling, the best-selling EV brand in China with its low-priced offerings like the &#34;Hongguang Mini&#34; (approx. $5,000) and the newest &#34;Baojun KiWi&#34; (approx. $11,000). Although this development has yet to be confirmed by NIO management, the materialization of the two sub-brands is expected to improve NIO&#39;s overall appeal to the mass market and support its ongoing efforts in penetrating opportunities within China&#39;s smaller tier 3 and tier 4 cities like Inner Mongolia and Heilongjiang, which are &#34;generally sensitive to monetary attributes&#34;.</p><p><b>Key Focus Areas Weighing on NIO Stock&#39;s Valuations</b></p><p>NIO&#39;s presence in the SEC&#39;s rolling list of delinquent issuers whose auditors are currently non-compliant with PCAOB inspection requests remains the biggest overhang on the stock&#39;s valuation from the &#34;multiple&#34; perspective.</p><p>While we have previously pointed to NIO&#39;s partial state-ownership (approx. 8%) as a potential shield against ongoing regulatory woes at home experienced by data-heavy tech companies over the past year, the exact same structure might now backfire. The recent slew of voluntary delisting from U.S. exchanges observed across &#34;China&#39;s state-owned enterprises&#34; are sounding the alarm for a similar fate for NIO, given the partial stake owned by a consortium of municipal government agencies. As mentioned in the earlier section, national security concerns remain the biggest reason in China&#39;s pushback against U.S.-mandated PCAOB audit inspections. With NIO being a massive source of data on personal travel patterns across the domestic population, along with a meaningful organizational structural link to state-backed agencies, it could be caught in the ongoing regulatory tug-of-war between the CSRC and U.S. SEC, which remains the primary drag in its valuation discount to peers in the U.S. EV market. Specifically, many foreign investors have already abstained from committing new allocations to Chinese funds over the past 12 months as they remain on the sidelines due to mounting regulatory risks, causing the valuation multiples on Chinese equities to lose their lustre compared to their American counterparts.</p><p>While NIO&#39;s &#34;homecoming&#34; listing in Hong Kong and additional listing in Singapore provides partial insulation against delisting risks by offering shareholders from its primary U.S. listing with an option to convert their ADRs for equivalents in the Asian exchanges in the unlikely event of its exit from the NYSE, it will be at a less attractive valuation. This represents another reason why NIO continues to trade at a discounted valuation multiple to its American peers despite having a &#34;back-up plan&#34; against U.S. delisting risks. The Asian exchanges are known for their &#34;less active and liquid markets&#34; compared to American exchanges - in Hong Kong, turnover in dual-listed stocks is merely half of volumes observed on the American exchanges, with risks of further declines as &#34;some institutional investors will not trade these stocks anymore&#34; if the primary U.S. listing is eliminated.</p><p><b>Final Thoughts</b></p><p>Based on the foregoing analysis, it is clear as day that regulatory risks remain the largest overhang on the NIO stock, as it continues to make favourable progress from a fundamental perspective both in terms of ramping up volumes, as well as growing market share. Any positive development to ongoing HFCAA negotiations between the U.S. and Chinese regulators, or related efforts by NIO management on resolving the issue, will be catalytic in lifting the NIO stock from its range-bound trading with renewed valuation upsides that can match those of its American peers that exhibit similar fundamental growth profiles.</p><p>While we remain optimistic on further upsides on the NIO stock at current levels, with the near-term price target set at $27 given its resilient business growth prospects, it will ultimately depend on the complete removal of the regulatory risk overhang to restore NIO&#39;s credibility as a viable high growth investment. For now, we continue to caution heightened delisting risks for NIO given its organizational structure&#39;s link to state-backed entities, in addition to broad-based market concerns on the near-term domestic economic slowdown in China, which could introduce further volatility to the NIO stock.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Other positive catalyststhat have supported the stock in its current $20-range after its climb from an all-time low in the $10-range in mid-May include favourable policy support from the central and municipal Chinese governments on shoring up electric vehicle (\"EV\") adoption in the region, as well as NIO's aggressive growth plans such as the upcoming introduction of new sub-brands to better penetrate mass market opportunities.Yet, ongoing weakness in economic sentiment spanning a worsening domestic property slump and slowing consumption in China, as well as the fluid COVID situation remain prominent risks weighing on the NIO stock's near-term performance. The recent slew of voluntary exits from U.S. exchanges by state-backed companies have also renewed concerns of delisting risks stemming from the \"Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act\" (\"HFCAA\") enforced by the U.S. SEC.Heading into NIO's second quarter earnings call, the key focus area beyond its production and delivery ramp-up efforts is where the Chinese EV maker stands when it comes to managing regulatory risks, as well as how it will fare within the increasingly competitive landscape while broader macro uncertainties continue to worsen. On one hand, NIO's progress in ramping up volumes - a key focus area for most automakers within the industry's supply-driven operational environment - will be a core driver of the \"fundamental\" factor weighing on its valuation prospects. Meanwhile, on the other hand, NIO's position amid mounting regulatory risks and broad-based market uncertainties will determine the \"multiple\" factor weighing on its valuation prospects.The following analysis will explore both perspectives and their related implications on the NIO stock's outlook. We continue to caution regulatory risks as the largest factor that has been capping the stock's ability in unlocking its true valuation upsides, despite continued demonstration of resilient fundamentals from the underlying business.2Q22 and July'22 Production and DeliveriesAs previously discussed in our most recent coverage on the stock, NIO's record-setting deliveries during the second quarter, especially in June, continues to underscore its impressive strength in re-ramping productions as the worst of supply and logistics constraints resulting from recent COVID restrictions in core Chinese manufacturing hubs start to ease.Specifically, productions of the newest ET7 sedan, which began in March, was a highlight with 40x growth during the second quarter. Despite a slight setback in July due to limited supply of casting parts used in the production of its ET7 sedans, NIO has maintained momentum in ramping up productions with 2,473 units of the premium electric sedans delivered in the first month of 3Q22. This represents a delivery run-rate of at least 7,400 units of the ET7 in the current quarter (approx. +10% q/q), especially given its ongoing efforts in \"working closely with supply chain partners [to] accelerate vehicle production in the following months of the third quarter of 2022\". The positive results continue to underscore NIO's strength in navigating through unprecedented disruptions from supply chain bottlenecks across the auto industry.Key Focus Areas Weighing on NIO's FundamentalsLooking ahead, NIO is expected to post an even stronger second half of the year, with the introduction of a strong product pipeline that adds the newest ES7 SUV to its sales mix later this month, alongside updated 2022 ES8, ES6 and EC6 SUVs. Favourable policy support in China will also continue to be a boon to NIO's operational performance in the second half of the year.1. Near- to Medium-Term FocusSpecifically, from a fundamental perspective, the key focus area remains on NIO's ability to ramp up productions and deliveries within the supply-driven auto industry as mentioned in the earlier section. The lack of supplies and lingering logistics constraints from pandemic-era disruptions have upended the auto industry over the past year, especially for Chinese OEMs due to the region's strict COVID Zero policy which remain a pronounced downside risk for NIO. This is further corroborated by the Chinese EV maker's struggle with supply shortages in July that have impacted its ET7 sedan and EC6 SUV volumes per its latest delivery update, highlighting how NIO's production and delivery progress have largely been determined by \"supply availability\" over the past year.Investors will remain focused on updates regarding NIO's working relationship with suppliers at the EV maker's upcoming earnings call to gauge whether production can accelerate through the third quarter and the remainder of the year as management had promised. Another key focus area remains on whether any positive progress has been made since NIO's July delivery update press release, which in our view would imply improving fundamentals, lifting the stock from its current range-bound situation.2. Longer-Term FocusOver the longer-term, NIO's progress on growing its market share through globalization, and primarily, domestic expansion with newly planned sub-brands to better penetrate mass market opportunities will be the core piece in bolstering its fundamental performance. China remains the largest EV market, underscoring NIO's growth opportunities ahead as it works to extend its reach beyond the premium market.Specifically, China is expected to sell a new record of at least 6 million EVs by the end of the year, which would be double of the 3 million EVs sold in 2021. In July, China's EV sales represented more than a quarter of total new car registrations, underscoring the rapid rebound in demand following stringent COVID mobility restrictions in the preceding months. This continues to serve favourable tailwinds for domestic EV makers like NIO, which currently represent close to a fifth of China's EV sales, and growing. The statistics also validate current market observations of no material demand destruction observed across the Chinese EV market despite the recent economic slowdown, underscoring the industry's resilience and sustained growth as supply constraints - the primarily roadblock to further expansion - continue to ease.To better penetrate the growing domestic opportunities, NIO has been diversifying its portfolio of premium offerings to address demand across various price and vehicle segments, as observed through its recent introduction of newly designed mid-sized SUVs, as well as premium sedans. More importantly, NIO's upcoming launch of new lower-priced sub-brands focused on the mass market will further its fundamental growth over the longer-term.As discussed in detail in one of our previous coverages, NIO's introduction of a new sub-brand priced in the range of RMB 200,000 ($30,000) to RMB 300,000 ($44,000) will be critical in extending its reach beyond the premium EV market in China:Pertaining to NIO's new mass market brand, which was first mentioned in August 2021, the Chinese EV maker confirmed that it has entered into a \"strategic cooperation agreement with Hefei on the second phase of vehicle production plant and the facilities for key components at NeoPark\" in early May. However, specific details over the product pipeline and related pricing remain uncertain. To date, NIO has only disclosed that the new sub-brand will be a direct competition to Tesla's best-selling Model 3 and Model Y in China, but at a 10% discount in the RMB 200,000 ($30,000) to RMB 300,000 ($44,000) price range.Source: \"EV Roundup: Everything from Tesla to NIO, U.S. to China\"Start of productions and customer deliveries on the sub-brand offerings are expected to begin in the second half of 2024, supported by internally-developed 800-volt battery packs that are expected to launch around the same time. This continues to underscore NIO's strengths in maximizing returns on its investments in building out a vertically integrated business model. We view the internalized production of 800-volt battery packs, which offer better range and faster charge times, as a positive development in reducing reliance from its sole third-party battery supplier CATL amid the increasingly constrained raw material supply chain, while also aiding better cost controls to sustain continued auto margin expansion over the longer-term.In addition to the highly-anticipated sub-brand that NIO first introduced and confirmed in August 2021, there have also recently been reports circulating about NIO's plans on expanding further with a second sub-brand priced in the RMB 100,000 ($15,000) range to better compete against SAIC-GM-Wuling, the best-selling EV brand in China with its low-priced offerings like the \"Hongguang Mini\" (approx. $5,000) and the newest \"Baojun KiWi\" (approx. $11,000). Although this development has yet to be confirmed by NIO management, the materialization of the two sub-brands is expected to improve NIO's overall appeal to the mass market and support its ongoing efforts in penetrating opportunities within China's smaller tier 3 and tier 4 cities like Inner Mongolia and Heilongjiang, which are \"generally sensitive to monetary attributes\".Key Focus Areas Weighing on NIO Stock's ValuationsNIO's presence in the SEC's rolling list of delinquent issuers whose auditors are currently non-compliant with PCAOB inspection requests remains the biggest overhang on the stock's valuation from the \"multiple\" perspective.While we have previously pointed to NIO's partial state-ownership (approx. 8%) as a potential shield against ongoing regulatory woes at home experienced by data-heavy tech companies over the past year, the exact same structure might now backfire. The recent slew of voluntary delisting from U.S. exchanges observed across \"China's state-owned enterprises\" are sounding the alarm for a similar fate for NIO, given the partial stake owned by a consortium of municipal government agencies. As mentioned in the earlier section, national security concerns remain the biggest reason in China's pushback against U.S.-mandated PCAOB audit inspections. With NIO being a massive source of data on personal travel patterns across the domestic population, along with a meaningful organizational structural link to state-backed agencies, it could be caught in the ongoing regulatory tug-of-war between the CSRC and U.S. SEC, which remains the primary drag in its valuation discount to peers in the U.S. EV market. Specifically, many foreign investors have already abstained from committing new allocations to Chinese funds over the past 12 months as they remain on the sidelines due to mounting regulatory risks, causing the valuation multiples on Chinese equities to lose their lustre compared to their American counterparts.While NIO's \"homecoming\" listing in Hong Kong and additional listing in Singapore provides partial insulation against delisting risks by offering shareholders from its primary U.S. listing with an option to convert their ADRs for equivalents in the Asian exchanges in the unlikely event of its exit from the NYSE, it will be at a less attractive valuation. This represents another reason why NIO continues to trade at a discounted valuation multiple to its American peers despite having a \"back-up plan\" against U.S. delisting risks. The Asian exchanges are known for their \"less active and liquid markets\" compared to American exchanges - in Hong Kong, turnover in dual-listed stocks is merely half of volumes observed on the American exchanges, with risks of further declines as \"some institutional investors will not trade these stocks anymore\" if the primary U.S. listing is eliminated.Final ThoughtsBased on the foregoing analysis, it is clear as day that regulatory risks remain the largest overhang on the NIO stock, as it continues to make favourable progress from a fundamental perspective both in terms of ramping up volumes, as well as growing market share. Any positive development to ongoing HFCAA negotiations between the U.S. and Chinese regulators, or related efforts by NIO management on resolving the issue, will be catalytic in lifting the NIO stock from its range-bound trading with renewed valuation upsides that can match those of its American peers that exhibit similar fundamental growth profiles.While we remain optimistic on further upsides on the NIO stock at current levels, with the near-term price target set at $27 given its resilient business growth prospects, it will ultimately depend on the complete removal of the regulatory risk overhang to restore NIO's credibility as a viable high growth investment. For now, we continue to caution heightened delisting risks for NIO given its organizational structure's link to state-backed entities, in addition to broad-based market concerns on the near-term domestic economic slowdown in China, which could introduce further volatility to the NIO stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":637,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9993117091,"gmtCreate":1660645649915,"gmtModify":1676536371184,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9993117091","repostId":"2259889841","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2259889841","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1660643563,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2259889841?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-16 17:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Better Stock-Split Stock to Buy Right Now: Amazon, Shopify, or Tesla?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2259889841","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Among Amazon, Shopify, and Tesla stands one company that's simply never been cheaper and is begging to be bought.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Wall Street and the investing community have been taken for a wild ride in 2022.

It was the company&#39;s first stock split in more than two decades.</p><p>When most people hear the word &#34;Amazon,&#34; they immediately think of the company&#39;s leading online marketplace. This year, Amazon is expected to bring in about $0.40 of every $1 spent in online retail sales in the United States.  But this top-tier revenue segment typically generates low operating margins.</p><p>The far bigger story for Amazon is what&#39;s happening with its higher-margin initiatives, such as subscription services, advertising, and cloud services. For instance, the greater than 200 million people signed up for Prime worldwide bring in tens of billions of dollars in predictable, high-margin revenue for Amazon every year.</p><p>Amazon Web Services (AWS) should play an even more important role in growing Amazon&#39;s operating cash flow in the years that lie ahead. I say &#34;cash flow&#34; and not earnings given that Amazon loves to reinvest a significant portion of its operating cash flow into its logistics network and various growth initiatives. With AWS accounting for a third of global cloud-service spending in the first quarter, and this segment providing the bulk of Amazon&#39;s operating income, it could send Amazon&#39;s share price significantly higher.</p><h2>Should you checkout with Shopify?</h2><p>Another possibility for investors is to put their money to work in cloud-based e-commerce platform Shopify. After peaking at more than $1,700 prior to its split, shares of this beaten-down tech stock can be had for around $40 on a post-split basis.</p><p>What makes Shopify such an intriguing company from the standpoint of long-term investors is its addressable market. A presentation from 2021 estimated that Shopify&#39;s e-commerce platform has a $153 billion addressable market just from small businesses (i.e., it&#39;s bread-and-butter target). This doesn&#39;t even take into account the larger businesses that have begun utilizing Shopify&#39;s tools and data analytics. With Shopify on pace to bring in over $7 billion in revenue this year, the implication is that growth is still in the very early innings.</p><p>Innovation is another tool that should excite investors. Last year, Shopify launched Shop Pay, its very own buy now, pay later (BNPL) service designed to give merchants and their consumers more payment options. Although BNPL operators have been hammered recently by domestic and global economic weakness, it should ultimately be a positive for Shopify&#39;s vast network of merchants over the long run.</p><p>Shopify is using bolt-on acquisitions to its advantage, too. Last month, it completed the $2.1 billion cash-and-stock buyout of e-commerce fulfillment company Deliverr.  Buying Deliverr further compliments Shopify&#39;s Fulfillment Network and should give merchants more peace of mind when managing their inventory and direct-to-consumer sales.</p><h2>Can investors burn rubber with Tesla?</h2><p>The third potential stock-split stock to buy is electric-vehicle (EV) manufacturer Tesla. The company&#39;s upcoming split will mark its second in two years.</p><p>The reason investors gravitate to Tesla is because of the company&#39;s competitive advantages. It&#39;s the first automaker to build itself from the ground up to mass production in more than five decades. Even with semiconductor chip shortages hurting production, and the company&#39;s Shanghai gigafactory being adversely impacted by COVID-19 lockdowns, Tesla looks to be well on its way to surpassing 1 million EV deliveries in a year for the first time.</p><p>In addition to production, Tesla has turned the corner to recurring profitability. Whereas the company had relied heavily on selling renewable energy credits (RECs) to other automakers prior to 2020, it&#39;s been generating generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) profits without the need for RECs to push it to a sizable profit. In each of the past five quarters, Tesla has delivered a GAAP profit ranging from $1.14 billion to $3.32 billion.</p><p>Tesla&#39;s success is also a reflection of investors&#39; belief in CEO Elon Musk as an innovator. As CEO, Musk has helped diversify his company&#39;s operations -- e.g., Tesla provides energy storage systems and installs solar panels via subsidiaries -- and has kept the company&#39;s user base excited about upcoming innovations, such as Tesla Bot, a robotic humanoid that could serve a variety of purposes.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a3d04332f26103c280e356ba7a8e2d51\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><h2>The better stock-split stock to buy right now is...</h2><p>Ultimately, Amazon, Shopify, and Tesla wouldn&#39;t have announced stock splits if their respective share prices hadn&#39;t significantly risen following great execution. But only one of these three stock-split stocks stands out as the clear better buy right now.</p><p>In my view, it&#39;s certainly <i>not</i> Tesla. The biggest issue with Tesla just might be Elon Musk. Aside from drawing the ire of the Securities and Exchange Commission on multiple occasions, Musk has continually overpromised and underdelivered as CEO. While the company&#39;s share price would say others, we&#39;ve seen delays to practically every major project or innovation proposed by Musk, including robotaxis and the Cybertruck, among others.</p><p>Tesla is also quite expensive. Whereas most auto stocks trade at single-digit forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios, Tesla will have investors paying about 54 times Wall Street&#39;s forecast earnings in 2023 for a company that&#39;ll likely see its competitive advantages wane over time.</p><p>Despite it being a popular buy right now, I don&#39;t believe Shopify is the answer, either. This is a retail-driven company that&#39;s susceptible to slower growth from rapidly rising interest rates and contracting U.S. gross domestic product. While there&#39;s no question Shopify has a delectably large addressable market, the company has a lot of work to do on its bottom-line to attract long-term investors.</p><p>The stock-split stock that&#39;s the absolute best buy of the three right now is Amazon.</p><p>Although its P/E ratio is an eye-popper for all the wrong reasons, the P/E ratio is a poor way to measure value with Amazon. As noted, because Amazon reinvests most of its operating cash flow back into its business, price-to-cash-flow is a far better measure of value.</p><p>Between 2010 and 2019, investors paid a year-end multiple of 23 to 37 times year-end cash flow. Based on Wall Street&#39;s 2025 forecast, which takes into account AWS growing into a larger percentage of total sales, Amazon is valued at just 10 times cash flow. If Amazon hits this estimate, it would be the cheapest shares have ever been. Valuation and innovation give Amazon the clear edge over Shopify and Tesla 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>Better Stock-Split Stock to Buy Right Now: Amazon, Shopify, or Tesla?</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\">\nBetter Stock-Split Stock to Buy Right Now: Amazon, Shopify, or Tesla?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-16 17:52 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/08/16/better-stock-split-stock-buy-amazon-shopify-tesla/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Wall Street and the investing community have been taken for a wild ride in 2022.

Whereas most auto stocks trade at single-digit forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios, Tesla will have investors paying about 54 times Wall Street's forecast earnings in 2023 for a company that'll likely see its competitive advantages wane over time.Despite it being a popular buy right now, I don't believe Shopify is the answer, either. This is a retail-driven company that's susceptible to slower growth from rapidly rising interest rates and contracting U.S. gross domestic product. While there's no question Shopify has a delectably large addressable market, the company has a lot of work to do on its bottom-line to attract long-term investors.The stock-split stock that's the absolute best buy of the three right now is Amazon.Although its P/E ratio is an eye-popper for all the wrong reasons, the P/E ratio is a poor way to measure value with Amazon. As noted, because Amazon reinvests most of its operating cash flow back into its business, price-to-cash-flow is a far better measure of value.Between 2010 and 2019, investors paid a year-end multiple of 23 to 37 times year-end cash flow. Based on Wall Street's 2025 forecast, which takes into account AWS growing into a larger percentage of total sales, Amazon is valued at just 10 times cash flow. If Amazon hits this estimate, it would be the cheapest shares have ever been. Valuation and innovation give Amazon the clear edge over Shopify and Tesla right now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1071,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9999444694,"gmtCreate":1660576628721,"gmtModify":1676535711794,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ooo","listText":"Ooo","text":"Ooo","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9999444694","repostId":"2259049047","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2259049047","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1660572768,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2259049047?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-15 22:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Disney Has a Long Way to Go to Catch Up to Netflix","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2259049047","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Disney may have overtaken Netflix in terms of total premium streaming subscribers, but it's lagging in just about every category that truly matters.","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2>KEY POINTS</h2><ul><li>Disney closed out its fiscal third quarter with 221.1 million subscribers, surpassing Netflix at 220.7 million paid streaming members.</li><li>Disney&#39;s streaming segment grew twice as fast as Netflix over the past year, but it&#39;s still well behind in revenue, operating profit, and other important categories.</li><li>Netflix has been slipping lately, but Disney could face growing pains as it jacks up its plan prices between now and the end of this year.</li></ul><p>There were a lot of juicy takeaways following <b>Disney</b>&#39;s blowout quarterly report last week, but there&#39;s one deceptive metric echoing in the world of streaming media stocks.

Did Disney really overtake Netflix in the subscriber race between premium on-demand video platforms?It may seem that way at first glance. Disney's three owned or majority-owned premium offerings combined for 221.1 million subscribers at the end of June. Netflix dipped sequentially during the three-month period, retreating to 220.7 million members worldwide at the midpoint of 2022. They may be passing ships right now, but there's more to this important milestone than you probably think.Image source: Getty Images.Netflix and shillWhere were you the moment that Disney passed Netflix in terms of raw subscriber counts? Wednesday afternoon was important as a plot point, but it wasn't exactly a plot twist. We need to frame things properly before handing Mickey Mouse the keys to the kingdom. For starters, Disney+ didn't flash its high beams, zoom past Netflix, and see the streaming pioneer shrink in the rearview mirror.Disney's flagship service accounts for 152.1 million of the media giant's total streaming accounts. It's a ridiculously impressive feat for a platform that wasn't even around three years ago, but it's not up to Netflix's haul over the years. The numbers include 22.8 million on ESPN+ and another 46.2 million on Hulu, two longer-running offerings that Disney does not fully own but does have a controlling stake in.It's also important to point out that Disney's been aggressively pushing its bundle that offers all three services at a discounted price. There may be a small number of Netflix users with more than one account, but there's a lot of overlap with Disney's 220.7 million, where every bundle customer counts as three different subscribers.Let's also talk about revenue. The most popular midtier plan at Netflix costs $15.49 a month. Disney+ right now goes for a little more than half that at a monthly rate of $7.99. It doesn't end there. More than a third of of those subscribers are in India, paying a monthly average of $1.20 a month for Disney+ Hotstar, a platform that the House of Mouse acquired three years ago. Back that out and the average subscriber is paying $6.29 a month, less than $7.99 since the service offers discounted annual plans and some members are still taking advantage of a three-year pre-paid plan at a deeply discounted rate that was available at the platform's launch in November 2019. Throw Disney+ Hotstar back into the mix, and the average monthly revenue that Disney is collecting from its 152.1 million users is just $4.35.ESPN+ is setting viewers back an average of $4.55 a month despite its current monthly rate of $6.99 that will bump up to $9.99 next week. Hulu costs more -- and the 4 million cord-cutters on Hulu + Live TV are shelling out a lot more -- but it all adds up to nearly $5.1 billion in revenue for all services combined, an impressive 19% year-over-year increase on the top line.In the other corner, we have Netflix with a commanding $8 billion in revenue for the same three-month period, as well as a more modest 9% increase when pitted against last year's second quarter. Disney also isn't even close as we work our way down the income statement. Disney doesn't expect to turn a profit with its direct-to-consumer business until fiscal 2024, clocking in with a nearly $1.1 billion operating loss for the segment. Netflix reported a $1.6 billion operating profit.Is the torch, relay race baton, or crown really going from Netflix to Disney? Momentum is going in that direction, but these ships haven't passed each other just yet. Disney is in the process of dramatically increasing its cover charges. It's not just ESPN+ going up. There will be churn from folks flinching at the 38% increase for ad-free Disney+. There should also be some turnover in November when the folks that pre-paid for three years of Disney+ have to renew at roughly three times what they paid in late 2019. There's no denying that Disney has become a major player in the streaming space, and a hearty chunk of that growth has been organic. However, in just about every way -- revenue, operating profit, customer engagement, and the actual number of unique subscribers -- Netflix is still the lion king of the hill.Better luck next quarter, Mufasa.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":453,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9999397838,"gmtCreate":1660460452526,"gmtModify":1676533475598,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9999397838","repostId":"1110057750","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1110057750","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1660446286,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1110057750?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-14 11:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba Stock: Follow Masayoshi Son, Not Charlie Munger","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1110057750","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"SummaryI explain why investors should not repeat the mistakes of Charlie Munger - it is better to fo","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Summary</p><ul><li>I explain why investors should not repeat the mistakes of Charlie Munger - it is better to follow Softbank&#39;s CEO, Masayoshi Son.</li><li>Mr. Son has decided to reduce his stake in Alibaba from 23.7% to 14.6% - in my opinion, this may create headwinds for BABA in the medium term.</li><li>Investors shouldn&#39;t be fooled by Alibaba&#39;s &#34;low multiples&#34; but to take a broader look at this company and consider all the risks involved.</li><li>Based on a fairly optimistic DCF model, there is a downside of 14% for Alibaba stock.</li><li>The desire to follow the example of Masayoshi Son rather than Charlie Munger seems more logical to me.</li></ul><p>Introduction &amp; Thesis</p><p>On March 24, 2020, Bloomberg wrote about Softbank CEO Masayoshi Son&#39;s plans to sell $14 billion worth of Alibaba shares (NYSE:BABA) to shore up the bank&#39;s businesses, which had been battered by the coronavirus pandemic.

The pressure on BABA&#39;s quotes is likely to continue due to these two factors, and Softbank&#39;s sale of forward contracts for such a large amount may add to the headwinds for shareholders.</p><p>Masayoshi Son vs. Charlie Munger</p><p>One of the most frequently cited arguments for buying BABA after its phenomenal &gt;50% off high dip is the fact that one of the most famous Western investors, Charlie Munger, bought and held the stock. According to the 13-F filings by his Daily Journal Corp, the 98-year-old investor began buying BABA in the first quarter of 2021 and gradually increased his position throughout 2021 (from 165,320 shares in the first quarter to 602,060 shares in the fourth quarter) until he decided to sell half of the position in the first quarter of 2022 and has not touched BABA since (which is interpreted by some as a bullish sign).</p><p>In my subjective opinion, a 50% reduction of BABA&#39;s position in Daily Journal Corp. in the first quarter is already a sign of Mr. Munger&#39;s capitulation, as this act is not typical of his position in BofA (BAC) or Wells Fargo (WFC) - compare the position size as of the last reporting date [link above] with the portfolio at the end of 2013 to see for yourself.</p><p>Concerning the unchanged amount of BABA shares in the last reporting quarter, it should be noted that other positions have also remained unchanged - Munger has simply decided not to buy or sell anything. The great investor of the 20th century will likely continue to get rid of his position in Alibaba stock, in my view, if the risks in China escalate. Remember what he said about Russian stocks many years ago (emphasis added):</p><blockquote>When asked about Russia, Charlie Munger, Warren Buffett’s partner at Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) (BRK.B), harrumphed: &#34;<i>We don’t invest in kleptocracies.</i>&#34; One investor famously declared after the market’s meltdown in 1998: &#34;I’d rather eat nuclear waste than invest in Russia.&#34;</blockquote><blockquote>[Source]</blockquote><p>If you have been buying BABA solely on Munger&#39;s moves, then I must warn you: if you look at the performance of his Daily Journal Corp [based on Fintel data from 13-Fs], he has not been able to boast of excessive returns for many years:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f172b8f0ac1e4673cf5741f21754470d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"420\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><b>Important note:</b>the reported value (RV) above should not be used as a substitute for Assets Under Management (AUM), as it does not include cash held in accounts.However, RV depletion is also an important criterion to consider.</p><p>I think the risks of investing in the Chinese market are becoming more evident every year. While the country&#39;s GDP grew 6-10% annually from the early 1990s until the pandemic began, these risks were ignored by many Western investors. We saw it even more positively when the Chinese GDP began to recover sharply after the 2020 lockdowns. Now, however, the prospects for similar growth rates are vague, as the real estate market, which has largely allowed China to report huge GDP growth rates in the past, is highly leveraged and in crisis, and the country&#39;s overall population is likely to start shrinking due to the low birth rate (which largely precludes the growth of the economy extensively).</p><blockquote>As recently as 2019 the China Academy of Social Sciences expected the population to peak in 2029, at 1.44 billion. The 2019 United Nations Population Prospects report expected the peak later still, in 2031-32, at 1.46 billion.</blockquote><blockquote>The Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences team predicts an annual average decline of 1.1% after 2021, pushing China&#39;s population down to 587 million in 2100, less than half of what it is today.</blockquote><blockquote>[Source]</blockquote><p>The accumulated problems of the Chinese regime drive Xi to continue trying to expand his sole power, because at first glance it seems more reliable to keep everything in one hand. Given the level of corruption in the country, we are dealing with a kleptocratic state - the reason why Munger avoided investing in Russia after 1998.</p><p>Aside from Masayoshi Son being forced to sell his shares in Alibaba, I think Softbank would have dumped its high stake in the company anyway, feeling the pressure from the Communist Party.</p><p>Exactly one year ago, Nikkei Asia published an article citing Son as to how he sees the pressure on China&#39;s tech sector.</p><blockquote>&#34;I strongly believe that China&#39;s AI technology and business model will continue to innovate,&#34; Son said in a news conference. &#34;However, in investment activities, various new regulations have begun, so I want to wait and see what kind of regulations are implemented and what kind of impact they have on the stock market.&#34;</blockquote><blockquote>[Source]</blockquote><p>A year later, he waited, looked around, and decided to reduce his stake in Alibaba from 23.7% to 14.6%.</p><p>This is a smart move that is not about flooding the market with shares all at once - under the terms of the forward contract, Mr. Son will have the right to buy back his BABA shares. However, it is unlikely that he will do so - in any case, we have not seen this happen since 2016. So, in the coming months, there will be a greater supply of Alibaba shares on the market, which will put additional pressure on prices against the backdrop of geopolitical and macroeconomic risks specific to China.</p><p>The company&#39;s financial profile doesn&#39;t help</p><p>The low multiples that made BABA&#39;s stock seem undervalued compared to U.S. tech giants have gotten even lower over the past six months - in line with the stock price:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a100fa0a41ade258d26db19f27c2313b\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"826\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>However, it turned out that this underestimation was evidence of the value trap - the slowdown in economic growth and regulatory problems were making themselves felt. Margins continued their downward trend, and the ratio of EBITDA to sales did not return to the level seen before COVID.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ceb0944814657934f262b18db7db4ec2\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"852\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Sales and earnings growth did not improve as investors expected, so the denominators for most valuation metrics became smaller than the numerators - Seeking Alpha&#39;s factor grade system changed the valuation metric in a negative direction for the company:</p><p>Readers will rightly wonder why the &#34;Profitability&#34; criterion is still rated &#34;A+&#34; against a backdrop of declining business margins and less than stellar ROE / ROA / ROIC indicators. The answer to this question lies in the elements of this criterion - the company&#39;s cash flow from operations (CFO) is the only reason for this superiority over the rest of the sector:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9f0ad942e9b19cfbee3de08d1b1b2009\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"430\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98d0b575ede1cd3f09a1e124dd313777\" tg-width=\"360\" tg-height=\"300\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Indeed, in the Internet and direct marketing retail industry, of which Alibaba is a part, only 58.62% of companies have a positive CFO. Such companies have a CFO to TTM ratio of 7% (median), while BABA has a similar ratio of 17%, making it a true cash cow. However, for a cash cow, the margin of safety of BABA is highly controversial in terms of DCF modeling:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e33ef5864117b63096db2166e004e764\" tg-width=\"594\" tg-height=\"557\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Even with a fairly optimistic discount rate (10% is low given the risks for the Chinese tech giant) and a very generous assumption of a 15% growth rate over the next 10 years (which is already not the case), there is a downside of 14%, even when adding the tangible book value to the final share price.</p><p>Of course, I could be wrong and the listing of BABA&#39;s shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange will create additional demand from investors in mainland China, but it&#39;s not entirely clear what U.S. investors with their ADRs will actually get out of it.</p><p>From this, I conclude that investors shouldn&#39;t be fooled by Alibaba&#39;s &#34;low multiples&#34; but to take a broader look at this company and consider all the risks involved. Then, the desire to follow the example of Masayoshi Son rather than Charlie Munger seems more logical to me.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

This was not the first news of attempts by Masayoshi Son, who was one of the first investors in BABA in 2000, to get rid of the company's shares - according to a press release from the bank, derivative tradeshave been made since 2016. However, $14 billion in 2020 was quite a large amount, and in the medium term, BABA shares began to correct more than the main benchmarks:Now we see that Softbank faced the problem of deflating the bubble in high-growth companies after the Corona crisis, and will now further reduce its stake in Alibaba stock (from the current 23.7% to 14.6% after settling $34 billion in prepaid forward contracts).As from the very beginning of my coverage of Alibaba stock here on Seeking Alpha, I still believe that investors should not follow on the heels of Charlie Munger - there are too many risks in buying this stock, both geopolitical (U.S.-China tensions, Taiwan) and economic (China's GDP growth slowdown and housing crisis). The pressure on BABA's quotes is likely to continue due to these two factors, and Softbank's sale of forward contracts for such a large amount may add to the headwinds for shareholders.Masayoshi Son vs. Charlie MungerOne of the most frequently cited arguments for buying BABA after its phenomenal >50% off high dip is the fact that one of the most famous Western investors, Charlie Munger, bought and held the stock. According to the 13-F filings by his Daily Journal Corp, the 98-year-old investor began buying BABA in the first quarter of 2021 and gradually increased his position throughout 2021 (from 165,320 shares in the first quarter to 602,060 shares in the fourth quarter) until he decided to sell half of the position in the first quarter of 2022 and has not touched BABA since (which is interpreted by some as a bullish sign).In my subjective opinion, a 50% reduction of BABA's position in Daily Journal Corp. in the first quarter is already a sign of Mr. Munger's capitulation, as this act is not typical of his position in BofA (BAC) or Wells Fargo (WFC) - compare the position size as of the last reporting date [link above] with the portfolio at the end of 2013 to see for yourself.Concerning the unchanged amount of BABA shares in the last reporting quarter, it should be noted that other positions have also remained unchanged - Munger has simply decided not to buy or sell anything. The great investor of the 20th century will likely continue to get rid of his position in Alibaba stock, in my view, if the risks in China escalate. Remember what he said about Russian stocks many years ago (emphasis added):When asked about Russia, Charlie Munger, Warren Buffett’s partner at Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) (BRK.B), harrumphed: \"We don’t invest in kleptocracies.\" One investor famously declared after the market’s meltdown in 1998: \"I’d rather eat nuclear waste than invest in Russia.\"[Source]If you have been buying BABA solely on Munger's moves, then I must warn you: if you look at the performance of his Daily Journal Corp [based on Fintel data from 13-Fs], he has not been able to boast of excessive returns for many years:Important note:the reported value (RV) above should not be used as a substitute for Assets Under Management (AUM), as it does not include cash held in accounts.However, RV depletion is also an important criterion to consider.I think the risks of investing in the Chinese market are becoming more evident every year. While the country's GDP grew 6-10% annually from the early 1990s until the pandemic began, these risks were ignored by many Western investors. We saw it even more positively when the Chinese GDP began to recover sharply after the 2020 lockdowns. Now, however, the prospects for similar growth rates are vague, as the real estate market, which has largely allowed China to report huge GDP growth rates in the past, is highly leveraged and in crisis, and the country's overall population is likely to start shrinking due to the low birth rate (which largely precludes the growth of the economy extensively).As recently as 2019 the China Academy of Social Sciences expected the population to peak in 2029, at 1.44 billion. The 2019 United Nations Population Prospects report expected the peak later still, in 2031-32, at 1.46 billion.The Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences team predicts an annual average decline of 1.1% after 2021, pushing China's population down to 587 million in 2100, less than half of what it is today.[Source]The accumulated problems of the Chinese regime drive Xi to continue trying to expand his sole power, because at first glance it seems more reliable to keep everything in one hand. Given the level of corruption in the country, we are dealing with a kleptocratic state - the reason why Munger avoided investing in Russia after 1998.Aside from Masayoshi Son being forced to sell his shares in Alibaba, I think Softbank would have dumped its high stake in the company anyway, feeling the pressure from the Communist Party.Exactly one year ago, Nikkei Asia published an article citing Son as to how he sees the pressure on China's tech sector.\"I strongly believe that China's AI technology and business model will continue to innovate,\" Son said in a news conference. \"However, in investment activities, various new regulations have begun, so I want to wait and see what kind of regulations are implemented and what kind of impact they have on the stock market.\"[Source]A year later, he waited, looked around, and decided to reduce his stake in Alibaba from 23.7% to 14.6%.This is a smart move that is not about flooding the market with shares all at once - under the terms of the forward contract, Mr. Son will have the right to buy back his BABA shares. However, it is unlikely that he will do so - in any case, we have not seen this happen since 2016. So, in the coming months, there will be a greater supply of Alibaba shares on the market, which will put additional pressure on prices against the backdrop of geopolitical and macroeconomic risks specific to China.The company's financial profile doesn't helpThe low multiples that made BABA's stock seem undervalued compared to U.S. tech giants have gotten even lower over the past six months - in line with the stock price:However, it turned out that this underestimation was evidence of the value trap - the slowdown in economic growth and regulatory problems were making themselves felt. Margins continued their downward trend, and the ratio of EBITDA to sales did not return to the level seen before COVID.Sales and earnings growth did not improve as investors expected, so the denominators for most valuation metrics became smaller than the numerators - Seeking Alpha's factor grade system changed the valuation metric in a negative direction for the company:Readers will rightly wonder why the \"Profitability\" criterion is still rated \"A+\" against a backdrop of declining business margins and less than stellar ROE / ROA / ROIC indicators. The answer to this question lies in the elements of this criterion - the company's cash flow from operations (CFO) is the only reason for this superiority over the rest of the sector:Indeed, in the Internet and direct marketing retail industry, of which Alibaba is a part, only 58.62% of companies have a positive CFO. Such companies have a CFO to TTM ratio of 7% (median), while BABA has a similar ratio of 17%, making it a true cash cow. However, for a cash cow, the margin of safety of BABA is highly controversial in terms of DCF modeling:Even with a fairly optimistic discount rate (10% is low given the risks for the Chinese tech giant) and a very generous assumption of a 15% growth rate over the next 10 years (which is already not the case), there is a downside of 14%, even when adding the tangible book value to the final share price.Of course, I could be wrong and the listing of BABA's shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange will create additional demand from investors in mainland China, but it's not entirely clear what U.S. investors with their ADRs will actually get out of it.From this, I conclude that investors shouldn't be fooled by Alibaba's \"low multiples\" but to take a broader look at this company and consider all the risks involved. Then, the desire to follow the example of Masayoshi Son rather than Charlie Munger seems more logical to me.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":109,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9990176524,"gmtCreate":1660316411169,"gmtModify":1676533450026,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go","listText":"Go","text":"Go","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9990176524","repostId":"1163130137","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1163130137","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1660318020,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1163130137?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-12 23:27","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"NIO: A Simple Reality Check","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1163130137","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryNIO enjoys several strategic advantages in the long-term, including Beijing’s recent announcement to support EV adaption and its leading scale domestically.In the near term, the business has ju","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>NIO enjoys several strategic advantages in the long-term, including Beijing’s recent announcement to support EV adaption and its leading scale domestically.</li><li>In the near term, the business has just posted 27% YoY delivery growth in July and passed the 10k monthly delivery mark.</li><li>Its rapid growth in revenues and deliveries has not translated into healthy profits.</li><li>As a result, I still cannot see a strong case for shareholder returns in the near future.</li></ul><p><b>Thesis</b></p><p>NIO Inc.

But the power of history and human emotion tells us what may happen next, and in this case, the answer may be staring us right in the face for all to see.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":517,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9905205723,"gmtCreate":1659887470865,"gmtModify":1703767365223,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"O","listText":"O","text":"O","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9905205723","repostId":"1166128821","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1166128821","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1659844984,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1166128821?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-07 12:03","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir Q2: Investors Beware","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1166128821","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryPalantir will be reporting its Q2 results before markets open on Monday.Its revenue is estima","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>Palantir will be reporting its Q2 results before markets open on Monday.</li><li>Its revenue is estimated to be $474.1 million.</li><li>Palantir&#39;s government revenue likely to remain subdued on account of lackluster order wins from the US government during the quarter.</li></ul><p>Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) will be releasing its Q2resultsbefore markets open on Monday.

The commercial segment happens to be the smaller one out of the two, at least in terms of revenue, and amounted to nearly 46% of the company&#39;s total sales last quarter.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c6c26bc211b592883ccfc648d76d754f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"545\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>BusinessQuant.com</p><p>Thanks to the rapid commercial customer adds in recent quarters, Palantir&#39;s commercial revenue has been growing at a breakneck pace of late and driving growth for the company as a whole. I expect this dynamic to continue in Q2 as well, with commercial revenue growing 10% sequentially and amounting to $225 million during Q2 2022.</p><p>The government segment contributed a little over 54% to Palantir&#39;s overall sales last quarter and the revenue stream has been growing at a relatively slower pace. This is, in part, due to the saturation in government customer additions as seen in the first section of this article. If the company&#39;s government customer base has saturated, then it&#39;s only natural that its government revenue stream would saturate as well.</p><p>What exacerbates the problem is that the inflow of federal government contracts has considerably slowed down in the last 2 quarters. Although Palantir&#39;s management noted in their last earnings call that they are &#34;seeing an acceleration of our U.S. government revenue&#34;, the ground reality isn&#39;t all that encouraging. As it turns out, the dollar-value of new orders signed with various US government agencies during Q2, is up 14% sequentially but still down 48% year over year. This means that even though Palantir has made some progress on this front, there&#39;s still a long way to go when compared to the company&#39;s own prior history with government contract wins.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/513e837064ffbf5b6adf1084eda3110b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"456\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>BusinessQuant.com</p><p>So, as far as Q2 is concerned, I expect Palantir&#39;s government revenue to grow marginally by 3% sequentially, with its revenue figure coming in at approximately $249 million. At this pace, I expect Palantir&#39;s commercial revenue to overtake its government revenue and become the leading contributor to the entire company&#39;s top line sometime in Q4 2022 or Q1 2023. But coming back to our discussion, this brings us to a company-wide revenue estimate of $474.1 million. My forecast is coincidentally in-line with the Street&#39;sestimatesthat are spanning from $470 million to $475.9 million.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a64133285cdbea23e36084f025bdfe2b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"209\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>BusinessQuant.com</p><p>But having said that, pay close attention to Palantir management&#39;s revenue and billings outlook for Q3. As companies and government agencies across the globe cut down on spending, Palantir might be affected as well. This could come in the form of order cancellations, deferred contract signings and/or slowing down revenue growth. So, look for management&#39;s comments on their growth momentum.</p><p><b>Final Thoughts</b></p><p>Palantir&#39;s shares are down 62% from their 52-week highs and they&#39;re now attractively valued at current levels. The stock is trading at 14-times its trailing twelve-month sales at the time of this writing, which is more or less in-line with many of the other rapidly growing software infrastructure stocks.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/54f28bcdbe209a2f5851224c7db57676\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>BusinessQuant.com</p><p>I, personally, expect Palantir to continue growing rapidly in the next 2 years at the very least. The company has compelling platform offerings and it has market validation in the form of rapid commercial customer additions. So, I remain bullish on Palantir. But, at the same time, I would recommend readers and investors to remain vigilant and monitor its customer additions, billings growth, segment financials and its management&#39;s outlook for Q3. These items will indicate if Palantir is succumbing to macroeconomic pressures or if its growth momentum remains intact.

Rivian&#39;s shares are down 65.95% since the IPO in 11/21, and the company continues to struggle.

But NIO reported a loss from operations was RMB2,445.1 million (US$383.7 million) in the fourth quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 162.5% from the fourth quarter of 2020 and an increase of 146.5% from the third quarter of 2021.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dfe93875be1bf07e575523460045fcdf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Seeking Alpha</p><p>Chart 2 shows a similar story based on one-year share price percent change for the companies listed in Table 1.

I noted in my July 27, 2022, Seeking Alpha article entitled \"MOKE + EV Technology Group: The Cost And Value Of 'Brand Equity' In The EV Automotive Value Chain:\"\"SPACs contributed half of the $29 billion raised publicly by EV manufacturers, suppliers and charging firms in 2021. EV startups Nikola (NKLA), Lordstown Motors (RIDE), Canoo (GOEV), Faraday Future Intelligent Electric (FFIE), Fisker (FSR), and Lucid Group (LCID) all went public through SPAC deals over the last two years.\"SPACs go public at $10 per share, a price point that serves as a simple benchmark for how those stocks have been received. Of these SPAC companies, only the share price of Lucid Group is above its IPO price at $18.25, as shown in Chart 1.YChartsChart 1Is There a Doctor in the House?In Tables 1-3, I break down the current crop of EV startups by level of funding from all sources and compare each to Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA). Table 1 shows the first five ranked companies. I don't include Rivian Automotive (RIVN), which would top the list by accumulating $10.7 billion in funding. Rivian's shares are down 65.95% since the IPO in 11/21, and the company continues to struggle. Layoffs at Rivian started in late July 2022 as the company races to cut costs amid a challenging economic climate and pressure to increase production. It delivered 1,227 vehicles in the first quarter and reported 4,467 deliveries in Q2. Rivian is targeting production of 25,000 vehicles this year, half of its initial production guidance for 2022.Table 1 shows significant variations in financial metrics among the five companies. TSLA shows positive TTM revenue, Net Income, and Gross Profit. All the startups reported TTM Revenue, but only Li Auto (LI) reported a positive Net Income and Gross Profit.Lucid Group was the top fund raiser on this list. Lucid delivered 360 EVs, helping to account for $57.7 million in revenue in Q1 2022, but revised its 2022 production volume outlook to a range of 6K to 7K vehicles following the release of itsQ2 results. Guidance earlier in the year was for production volume of 12K to 14K vehicles.China's NIO (NIO) delivered 25,059 electric cars in Q2, which is slightly above the guidance of 23,000-25,000. So far this year, NIO globally sold 50,827 electric cars. But NIO reported a loss from operations was RMB2,445.1 million (US$383.7 million) in the fourth quarter of 2021, representing an increase of 162.5% from the fourth quarter of 2020 and an increase of 146.5% from the third quarter of 2021.Seeking AlphaChart 2 shows a similar story based on one-year share price percent change for the companies listed in Table 1. TSLA is the only company showing positive growth at 29.72% as of the close on July 29, 2022. LI share price was -1.65%. NIO share price is down 55.84% showing investors the COVID situation in China remains fluid and EV shares in general remain under a cloud amid rising interest rates and fears of a global recession.YChartsChart 2Table 2 shows TSLA compared with startups ranked #5-8 based on level of funding. Only Fisker reported TTM revenues of just $96,000. Wall Street was initially attracted to its asset-light business model based on contract manufacturing. However, declining investor appetite for pre-revenue companies has taken the focus away from companies like Fisker.That will change as the Fisker Ocean is set to start production in November 2022 and sold exclusively through the Fisker app. According to the company, reservations for the Ocean electric SUV surpassed 50,000, a significant rise from the 40,000 preorders announced in early April. The Ocean with the base Sport trim priced at $37,499 before incentives.Seeking AlphaChart 3 shows one-year share price percent change for the companies listed in Table 2. Again, TSLA is the only company showing positive growth at 29.72% as of the close on July 29, 2022. FSR share price is down 40.57%. The stock is trading below its IPO price.YChartsChart 3Table 3 shows the remaining EV startups, but funding has not been disclosed. Of the four startups, only Ayro (AYRO) showed positive TTM revenue of just $2.92M but net income was -$32.01M. Ayro has a different business model than the other companies included in this article as it designs and manufactures electric vehicles for closed campus mobility, urban and community transport, local on-demand and last mile delivery, and government use.

Adjusted earnings per share came in at $2.27 vs. $1.81 expected. Revenue missed at $16.93 billion vs. $17.1 billion expected. Chart 5 shows quarterly performance through Q2 2022.YChartsChart 5In Q2 2022, TSLA achieved record production rates across the company, producing more than 258,000 vehicles and delivered 254,695 vehicles.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average finished with a gain of about 9 points after being up more than 100 points earlier in the session, closing at 34,292.29. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite added about 0.2% for its own record of 14,528.33.\nHomebuilder stocks moved higher after S&P Case-Shiller saidhome prices rose more than 14% in Aprilcompared to the prior year. Five U.S. cities, including Seattle, saw their largest annual increase on record. Shares of PulteGroup rose 2%.\nSemiconductor stocks gained strength later in the session, with Skyworks and Advanced Micro Devices climbing 4.5% and 2.8%, respectively. General Electric boosted the industrials sector, rising over 1% afterGoldman Sachs named the stock a top idea.\nThe market has churned out a series of record highs in recent weeks, but the gains have been relatively modest and some strategists have pointed to weak market breadth, measured by the performance of the average stock and the number of individual names making new highs, as a potential area of concern.\nOn Tuesday, there were slightly more declining stocks in the S&P 500 than those that rose during the session.\nHowever, the diminished breadth and volatility could simply be a natural pause during the summer months ahead of the busy earnings season in July, said Bill McMahon, the chief investment officer for active equity strategies at Charles Schwab Investment Management.\n\"I think people are in a little bit of a wait-and-see mode, so it's not surprising to see volatility decline and breadth worsen a tad,\" McMahon said, adding that concern about the spreading Delta variant of Covid-19 could also be weighing on stocks.\nShares of Morgan Stanley jumped more than 3% after the bank said it willdouble its quarterly dividend. The bank also announced a $12 billion stock buyback program. The announcement follows last week's stress tests by the Federal Reserve, which all 23 major banks passed. However, some other bank stocks gave up early gains and weighed on the broader indexes despite increasing their own payout plans.\nThe Conference Board's consumer confidence reading for June came in higher than expected, adding to the bullish readings about the economic recovery.\nWith the market entering the final trading days of June and the second quarter, the S&P 500 is on track to register its fifth straight month of gains. The Nasdaq is pacing for its seventh positive month in the last eight. The Dow, however, is in the red for the month, and on track to snap a four-month winning streak.\nSo far in 2021, the S&P 500 has added 14%, while the Nasdaq has added more than 12% with the Dow close behind.\nJPMorgan quantitative strategist Dubravkos Lakos-Bujas said on CNBC's \"Squawk Box\" that the market appeared to have near-term upside.\n\"The growth policy backdrop in our opinion still remains supportive for risk assets in general, certainly including equities. At the same time, the positioning is not really stretched to where we are in a problematic territory. So we do think there is still a runway. ... The summer period, the next two months, is where I think the market continues to break out,\" the strategist said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":202,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":140798944,"gmtCreate":1625671735188,"gmtModify":1703746224385,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like pls","listText":"Like pls","text":"Like pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/140798944","repostId":"1133802649","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1133802649","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625667870,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1133802649?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-07 22:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"A So-Called “Meme Stock” That’s Actually Worth the Hype","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1133802649","media":"investorplace","summary":"Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water.\nWe’ve all heard the saying several times, and we’ve al","content":"<p>Don’t throw the&nbsp;<b><i>baby</i></b>&nbsp;out with the&nbsp;<b><i>bath water</i></b>.</p>\n<p>We’ve all heard the saying several times, and we’ve all heard it applied to many different situations in many different industries.

I believe that the company will be able to keep delivering strong top line growth and continued growth in margins, fueled not only by the company's current business expansion but also by entering into new markets and new businesses.</p>\n<p><b>Company Analysis</b></p>\n<p>I initiate Amazon with a bullish rating and a fair value of $3576/share (vs. the current price of $3443/share).

As&nbsp;with Apple(NASDAQ:AAPL), I don't believe that Amazon's R&amp;D is an operating expense, and for this reason, I treat it as CapEx. By taking into account the R&amp;D, the following metrics have been restated (all numbers in $mm).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bb427d462596db1e1cb1ffc99acc90e4\" tg-width=\"571\" tg-height=\"240\"><span>Source:Author's estimates using data from the latest 10-K report</span></p>\n<p>Capitalizing on R&amp;D expenses, we have now a more clear picture of the company (i.e. the restated operating margin is now 9.03% TTM vs the non-restated operating margin is 6.63% TTM).</p>\n<p><b>Discounted Cash Flow Model</b></p>\n<p>Now, let's turn to the discounted cash flow valuation part.

The decision of using the current and not expected yield is due to the willingness to remain market neutral (perhaps you can use&nbsp;Goldman Sachs expectations&nbsp;of 1.9%). The current assumptions lead to revenues of $1,253,844 million in Y10.</p>\n<p>Along the road, I also assume an improving outlook for operating margins with the target operating margin of 13.2% (vs current restated operating margin of 9.03%). If the company will be able to meet this target, it will result in operating margins in Y10 of $163,097 million.</p>\n<p>Finally, in doing my estimates, I used a WACC of 5.75% and a sales to capital ratio (or how much the company is going to reinvest to keep its business growing) of 2.95.</p>\n<p>By putting it together, I obtain a DCF value of $3328/share.</p>\n<p><b>Monte Carlo Simulation</b></p>\n<p>Rather than showing you only my point estimates, which may be right but also may be wrong, let's use probability distributions for inputs. Simulations allow us to assess the impact of continuous risk (e.g., changes in operating margins). In particular, I would like to focus on what I consider the main inputs of interest to get a bigger picture of the risk in the company. Those inputs are:</p>\n<p><i>1. Revenue Growth:</i></p>\n<p>In my DCF analysis, I assumed an expected CAGR Y2-Y5 of 15% with lower rates going forward. This assumption lead to revenues in Y10 of $1,253,844 million. While it is a reasonable assumption, Amazon is full of surprises, and it may deliver a top line growth well above my expectations. In the latter, I see a possible scenario with a CAGR Y2-Y5 of 24%, resulting in Y10 revenues of $1,989,952 million. However, we all know that regulators represent a big risk for the company. According to&nbsp;WSJ sources, if the \"giant-tech bill\" will pass, the company may be forced to either split into two companies or spin off its private-label product businesses. This represents a big risk that may slow down Amazon's growth, which could translate into a growth rate of 6% (resulting in Y10 revenues of $764,723 million). To sum up, I will assume a uniform distribution with a maximum of 24% and a minimum of 6%. The results are displayed below (this simulation and the next one have been performed 10,000 times).</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/893dff753c8ca210759feb31b3966a5c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"235\"><span>Source:Author's estimates</span></p>\n<p><i>2. Operating Margin</i>:</p>\n<p>Currently, Amazon has a restated operating margin of 9.03% TTM (vs not restated EBIT margin of 6.83%). In my DCF, I assumed a target operating margin of 13.2%. While this represents my most likely scenario for the company, I cannot close my eyes to the fact that, even if the company is improving its margins, it is following a very slow climb. Below, I display the non-restated EBIT margin for the last 5 years.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d66fcb05f4254b15de278f016121ffa\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"221\"><span>Source:SeekingAlpha.com</span></p>\n<p>However, as I stated at the beginning, Amazon is a disruptive company with the ability to do extraordinary things. For instance, AWS presents a current operating margin of 30% TTM and a revenue growth rate of 29.53% in 2020. A trend which is expected to continue, driven by improving outlook and with new partners joining the party. The last to join the party are Ferrari(NYSE:RACE)and Swisscom(OTCPK:SWZCF)who have chosen AWS as their&nbsp;preferred cloud partner.</p>\n<p>In 2020,according to Gartner, AWS generated revenue 2 times bigger than Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT).

Cost of Capital:</i></p>\n<p>The last input of interest is the cost of capital. In doing my analysis, I estimated a cost of capital of 5.8% (with the current 10Y rate of 1.48 and an implied ERP of 4.54%). However, I may be wrong due to sector risk estimates or changes in the business mix (or both). To account for the possibility that I made some mistakes along the road, I will rely on a lognormal distribution with the most likely scenario of 5.8%.

The results found suggest that the stock is currently undervalued and that the company has still more room to go. What may drive the price to go higher? Well, there are different factors that may drive it. One of those is for sure corporate news. For instance, the company may introduce new products or announce a stock split (For the latter, I think this is unlikely, at least not now). However, don't forget also the other side, the risks. There are many risks associated with being invested in the company, one of those is represented by antitrust and regulators.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Amazon: Undervalued With Potential Upside Of 25%</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nAmazon: Undervalued With Potential Upside Of 25%\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-01 18:02 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4437291-amazon-stock-amzn-undervalued-with-potential-upside-of-25-percent><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nAmazon is a unique and growing company that uses its disruptive platform to disrupt any new business it enters.\nI initiate Amazon with a bullish rating and a fair value of $3576/share (vs. ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4437291-amazon-stock-amzn-undervalued-with-potential-upside-of-25-percent\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AMZN":"亚马逊"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4437291-amazon-stock-amzn-undervalued-with-potential-upside-of-25-percent","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1113357649","content_text":"Summary\n\nAmazon is a unique and growing company that uses its disruptive platform to disrupt any new business it enters.\nI initiate Amazon with a bullish rating and a fair value of $3576/share (vs. the current price of $3443/share).\nThe company's improving top line and bottom line performance (which is expected to continue) suggests that the stock is currently undervalued by 3.9%.\n\nDaria Nipot/iStock Editorial via Getty Images\nCompany Overview\nAmazon(NASDAQ:AMZN), a $1.74 trillion company.

There are many risks associated with being invested in the company, one of those is represented by antitrust and regulators.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":73,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9037529821,"gmtCreate":1648144788412,"gmtModify":1676534309074,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9037529821","repostId":"2221174430","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2221174430","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1648136014,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2221174430?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-24 23:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Want to Retire With $1 Million?

Over the last decade, the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> has generated a total return of 286%, meaning you could have tripled your money by simply investing in an exchange traded fund that tracks the popular index.</p><p>That said, greater rewards await savvy investors who are willing to research and build a diversified portfolio of individual stocks. For those interested in long-term growth, tech standouts <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HUBS\">HubSpot</a></b> ( HUBS 3.21% ) and <b>Okta</b> ( OKTA -1.76% ) look like smart investments. Both have the potential to quadruple in value over the next 10 years, growing at a pace that would turn an initial investment of $250,000 split evenly between these stocks into a collective $1 million.</p><p>What makes these companies ready for such monster growth? Let&#39;s take a look.</p><h2>HubSpot: Customer relationship management</h2><p>HubSpot provides customer relationship management (CRM) software, offering tools that drive productivity across marketing, sales, customer service, and operations. The HubSpot app marketplace lists over 1,000 integrations that extend the functionality of its CRM suite, connecting with social media apps like <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a></b>&#39; Instagram, commerce software like <b>Shopify</b>, and email systems like <b>Microsoft </b>( MSFT 1.64% ) Outlook.</p><p>Of course, HubSpot faces intense competition from other CRM vendors like <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRM\">Salesforce</a>, </b>which generated 20 times more revenue than HubSpot over the last 12 months. But HubSpot&#39;s advantage lies in the quickly growing marketing automation space, where it holds nearly 34% market share. For context, the marketing automation industry was worth $3.6 billion in 2020, and is expected to grow threefold in the next five years. That edge could certainly help HubSpot grow over the next decade. But more immediately, this advantage in marketing automation gives HubSpot a foothold in the broader CRM industry, allowing the company to execute its land-and-expand growth strategy.</p><p>As of fourth quarter 2021, 60% of customers use multiple HubSpot products, compared to 34% in 2017. This uptick in adoption has translated into strong financial results. In 2021, revenue rose 47% to $1.3 billion, and the company generated free cash flow of $203.3 million, up from $79.1 million the year prior. Analysts believe there&#39;s even more room for HubSpot to grow: Brad Sills of <b>Bank of America</b> Securities ( BAC 3.13% ) puts HubSpot&#39;s addressable market at $87 billion.</p><p>To that end, HubSpot continues to innovate and expand its capabilities. Last year, it partnered with Stripe to launch HubSpot Payments, a tool that streamlines sales by enabling digital payments directly through its CRM platform. HubSpot also launched Operations Hub, a software product that helps operations teams sync data between applications and automate various business processes.</p><p>Here&#39;s the bottom line: HubSpot helps its clients provide a great consumer experience across the entire customer lifecycle. That value proposition resonates with businesses in virtually every industry. More importantly, HubSpot has achieved a strong competitive position, especially in marketing automation software, and that tailwind should be a growth driver in the years ahead. In fact, I think this $23 billion business could grow fourfold to $92 billion over the next decade.</p><h2>Okta: Cybersecurity</h2><p>Okta helps organizations protect sensitive applications and data. Its primary offering, Okta Identity Cloud, is a suite of identity and access management (IAM) tools that securely connects users to necessary technologies. Okta uses artificial intelligence to continuously analyze contextual signals (such as user, device, and location) to score the risk associated with each sign-in attempt. Following this formula, the platform only authenticates and authorizes appropriate users. Given the growing need for cybersecurity -- the number of Internet of Things cyberattacks alone is expected to double by 2025 -- this stock looks like a prime candidate for fourfold returns.</p><p>Okta&#39;s technology is highly versatile and addresses both workforce and customer identity use cases. Okta Identity Cloud integrates with over 7,000 different software products and infrastructure providers. Okta also provides developer tools that allow clients to incorporate Okta technology into other applications. Unlike rivals such as Microsoft, Okta is infrastructure-agnostic; its identity tools aren&#39;t associated with a specific cloud vendor and the company has no incentive to push clients toward particular technologies. This neutrality gives Okta a significant edge, spurring <b>Gartner </b>and <b>Forrester Research</b> to recognize the company as a leader in the IAM space.</p><p>Those accolades came alongside solid financial performance. In the past year, revenue soared 56% to $1.3 billion, and the company generated positive free cash flow of $87 million. This free cash flow represents a 22% drop compared to the year prior, due in large part to expenses associated with Okta&#39;s acquisition of Auth0. However, that acquisition strengthens Okta&#39;s position in the customer identity space. While Okta already had an impressive ecosystem of pre-built integrations, Auth0&#39;s developer tools make its easy to embed IAM solutions into any application, including consumer-facing ones.</p><p>Last year, Okta announced the launch of two new products: Identity Governance, which simplifies reporting and automates workflows, and Privileged Access, which ensures heightened protection of highly valuable accounts. Collectively, these new products will strengthen Okta&#39;s position in the workforce identity space, pushing the company&#39;s addressable market to $80 billion. Both products are set to launch in first quarter 2022, and management will report on progress later in the year. For now, though, these announcements highlight Okta&#39;s ambitious growth strategy and underscore its commitment to industry expansion.</p><p>In short, Okta has carved out a leadership position in the IAM industry, and through acquisition and innovation, management is working to strengthen that position. More broadly, cybersecurity will only become more critical as the number of connected devices continues to proliferate. That&#39;s why I think this growth stock -- which currently has a market cap of $27 billion -- could grow fourfold to $108 billion over the next decade.</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>Want to Retire With $1 Million?

Two of the nine MPC members pushed to end those purchases early, with Dave Ramsden making his first dissenting vote in in four years on the panel.\n“This appears to open the door to a rate rise by the end of this year, even while the BOE is injecting net stimulus into the economy via” quantitative easing, said Liz Martins, a senior economist at HSBC Holdings Plc in London. “The MPC does not want to rule out swift tightening if inflationary pressures intensify further.”\nThe next MPC meeting is set for Nov. 4.\nThe pound rallied and government bonds fell as investors reacted to a decision that puts the BOE in the more hawkish camp of advanced-world central banks in a pivotal week. On Wednesday, the U.S. Federal Reserve announced that officials may taper bond buying soon, and Norway raised its interest rate on Thursday.\nThe U.K. central bank is trying to tame inflation that accelerated well beyond its forecasts over the summer, reaching 3.2% last month. Its new focus is enabled by stronger-than-expected jobs data that show unemployment will peak well below worst-case scenarios predicted at the onset of the pandemic.\nWhile the BOE targets inflation of 2%, officials said the rate may temporarily exceed 4% in the final three months of the year. That’s slightly more than predicted in August.\nSpiking gas costs that have caused turmoil in U.K. energy markets “could represent a significant upside risk,” and also mean that consumer-price increases double the target until the second quarter of 2022, the MPC added.\nAllan Monks, an economist atJPMorgan Chase & Co., said the tone of the statement was more “hawkish than expected,” with policy makers attaching little weight to recent disappointing growth data.\nSignaling it could raise rates even before bond purchases expire the committee also appears to be “creating space to potentially hike as soon as November or December, something which we have previously attached a low probability to,” he said.\n\n “We still expect the labor market and a softer growth outlook to stay the BOE’s hand for longer than financial markets expect. But it now looks like a first hike will come in May, six months earlier than we forecast prior to the decision.”\n\n\n -- Dan Hanson, senior U.K. economist. Clickherefor full REACT.\n\nTraders now are pricing a 15-basis-point rate increase in February, compared with May previously. The pound rallied as much as 0.7%, while 10-year gilt yields rose by the most in a week.\nThe BOE kept its own benchmark unchanged at a record-low 0.1%, while its stock of asset purchases is set to total 895 billion pounds ($1.2 trillion) by the end of this year in line with expectations. Deputy Governor Ramsden joined Michael Saunders in pushing to end bond purchases as soon as possible.\n“There was increasing evidence from a range of global and domestic cost and price indicators that inflationary pressures were likely to persist,” the minutes said. “These members judged that, with the existing policy stance, inflation was likely to remain above the 2% target in the medium term.”\nThe decision was also notable for the participation of the MPC’s two newest members, who both voted with the majority on this occassion. Huw Pill, a formerGoldman Sachs Group Inc.analyst, replaced Andy Haldane as chief economist, and Catherine Mann, a one-time chief economist of the OECD, took up a post vacated by Gertjan Vlieghe.\nWhile the BOE’s more hawkish rhetoric follows a noticeable spike in inflation, it also comes against the backdrop of an economic recovery that has shown signs of losing steam amid supply bottlenecks and labor shortages.\nData released on Thursday showed the U.K. had about 5.8% of its workforce on furlough at the start of this month even though that support program is set to expire Sept. 30.

I’d come into 2004 steadily scaling into ever-larger and more aggressive positions in mostly internet core equipment vendors like Nortel, JDSU, and Cisco, not to mention my largest position in Apple, which I’d first bought for the fund back in March of 2003. (I held Apple along with occasional Apple call options until I closed the fund, by the way.) I’d made big money already in my hedge fund, which was full of mostly long positions as the markets had been in a big rebound from their October 2002 lows.</p>\n<p>As 2004 started, the markets were in what I called a Steady Betty Rally Mode at the time, and internet-equipment stocks were the single hottest sector into the new year. I started trimming some of my biggest winners down, including the aforementioned Nortel, JDSU and Cisco, along with any stocks that were up 20%, 30% or even more as January wore on. By late January, I was nearly back up to half in cash and the hedge fund was already up nearly 25% for the year while the broader markets were barely up 5% on the year.</p>\n<p>In the last week of January, the markets turned south and the highest-flying winners of the year, like those that I’d just sold down and taken huge profits on, were the hardest hit. I’d previously learned the hard way over the years that you should never confuse a bull market with genius, but I’d even nailed the near-term top and my whole year was already in the pocket. I was feeling pretty good about myself and my trading prowess and listening to Willie cover Woody Guthrie’s classic, “Stay a little longer” chuckling about how I’d left before the party was busted!</p>\n<p>By early February, I was “only” up just over 20% on the year, as I still had half my fund in stocks and a few options, but the markets were now down year to date and the stocks I’d so smartly sold down at the top had themselves pulled back 20%-30% from their highs. They finally were stabilizing and the charts started to turn upward as the stocks were flattish to down on the year.</p>\n<p>Here I was sitting on a huge pile of cash and feeling like a genius for having sold at the top and here was a chance to just slowly start rebuilding and buying some new stocks while they were down. I started to buy back a few shares and to put just a little bit of that 50% cash, along with more cash coming in, to work in the markets.</p>\n<p>By the time March rolled around, I was back fully invested and mostly long, up single digits on the year, and the markets were down about 10% or so on the year. One morning as I walked into my hedge fund hotel office that I rented from Bear Stearns on the 40th floor in midtown New York, I was shocked to see the Nasdaq futures were down huge. I pulled up the Bloomberg terminal and my heart sank as the headline screamed “Nortel admits fraud; Major telecom equipment vendors under investigation” or something along those lines. Nortel was cut in half and most every internet-equipment-related stock in the market was down 20% or more on the day. I puked my guts out that whole day and cried myself to sleep that night.</p>\n<p>I spent the rest of the year digging out of that hole and getting back ahead of the market and had a lot of success in that hedge fund from that bottom.</p>\n<p>Lesson of the week — do not dig yourself a hole, OK?</p>\n<p>Foreshadowing</p>\n<p>Here’s something I wrote in 2007, the last time I started turning from bullish to bearish and eventually traded my hedge fund for a TV gig right before the markets started tanking in late 2007: “Concerned about complacency” (May 3, 2007).</p>\n<p>Here’s an excerpt:</p>\n<p><i>I’m worried. That’s no news flash, as I’m&nbsp;always&nbsp;worried, but I am really concerned about the complacency out there. Earnings are great, as evidenced by the booming season we’re experiencing. The global economy is lifting a lot of boats. And every time I try to get bearish, I feel almost silly when the action, fundamentals and environment are this strong.</i></p>\n<p><i>Just about everybody is long real estate. … Wasn’t almost every rationalization for why we shouldn’t fret about any real estate bubble true when real estate crashed the last few times?</i></p>\n<p><i>Last month, the IMF reported that “the global economy remains on track for robust growth in 2007 and 2008. … Moreover, downside risks to the outlook seem less threatening than at the time of the September 2006&nbsp;World Economic Outlook.” Has the IMF ever gotten the outlook right?</i></p>\n<p><i>This utter disregard for risk permeates the sell side, too, as evidenced by this broker note from Bear this morning: “Worries —&nbsp;the market is running out of major concerns.” Not surprisingly, I suppose, I’m going to&nbsp;flip&nbsp;that statement as I find I have more major concerns about the market and economy today than I’ve had at any point in the past five years.</i></p>\n<p><i>A&nbsp;Citi&nbsp;board member recently told me that I had a “lot of guts” for having launched a tech fund in October 2002. I think you’d have to have a lot of guts to launch a tech fund in May 2007! I’m focusing more on the short side than anything else right now.</i></p>\n<p>Beware when things are too easy</p>\n<p>Cody&nbsp;back in real time, 2021. I’m not saying the markets are about to tank like they did in 2008. But I am saying, once again, that I know way too many random hard-working people who are convinced that they can make big money in cryptos and meme stocks and by trading, trading, trading.</p>\n<p>And all my analysis points to an unfortunate risk/reward set up for the aggressive bulls here.</p>\n<p>That story above about Nortel: I’m here to tell you that you won’t always get a chance to sell when the charts stop working. You don’t always get a chance to lock in your gains while you think it’s easy.</p>\n<p>I’ve been in this business, picking stocks and helping people manage their money for 25 years, and it seems obvious to me that trading and investing and making profits and keeping those profits is very hard to do over many years. There are times it seems easy. That’s often the best time to get cautious. Because if it really were easy, nobody would work their real jobs. We could all just trade stocks to each other all day and make all the money we need. Yeah, right.</p>\n<p>I have a new name or two I’m digging hard into this week, one in AI and another that’s trying to revolutionize long-term gig employment trends. Until then, I’m staying steady as she goes, even as so many others think YOLO and FOMO are just fun, little acronyms.</p>","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>Two new stock market acronyms — FOLO and YOMO — can save you a lot of grief (and 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\">\nTwo new stock market acronyms — FOLO and YOMO — can save you a lot of grief (and money)\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-04 11:38 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/two-new-stock-market-acronyms-folo-and-yomo-can-save-you-a-lot-of-grief-and-money-11625247142?mod=home-page><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>When stock market investing gets too easy, consider getting out of the market.\n\nYou’ve probably heard about people trading stocks based on two acronyms: FOMO (fear of missing out) and YOLO (you only ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/two-new-stock-market-acronyms-folo-and-yomo-can-save-you-a-lot-of-grief-and-money-11625247142?mod=home-page\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SPY":"标普500ETF",".DJI":"道琼斯",".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index"},"source_url":"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/two-new-stock-market-acronyms-folo-and-yomo-can-save-you-a-lot-of-grief-and-money-11625247142?mod=home-page","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1160702483","content_text":"When stock market investing gets too easy, consider getting out of the market.\n\nYou’ve probably heard about people trading stocks based on two acronyms: FOMO (fear of missing out) and YOLO (you only live once).

One morning as I walked into my hedge fund hotel office that I rented from Bear Stearns on the 40th floor in midtown New York, I was shocked to see the Nasdaq futures were down huge. I pulled up the Bloomberg terminal and my heart sank as the headline screamed “Nortel admits fraud; Major telecom equipment vendors under investigation” or something along those lines. Nortel was cut in half and most every internet-equipment-related stock in the market was down 20% or more on the day. I puked my guts out that whole day and cried myself to sleep that night.\nI spent the rest of the year digging out of that hole and getting back ahead of the market and had a lot of success in that hedge fund from that bottom.\nLesson of the week — do not dig yourself a hole, OK?\nForeshadowing\nHere’s something I wrote in 2007, the last time I started turning from bullish to bearish and eventually traded my hedge fund for a TV gig right before the markets started tanking in late 2007: “Concerned about complacency” (May 3, 2007).\nHere’s an excerpt:\nI’m worried. That’s no news flash, as I’m always worried, but I am really concerned about the complacency out there. Earnings are great, as evidenced by the booming season we’re experiencing. The global economy is lifting a lot of boats. And every time I try to get bearish, I feel almost silly when the action, fundamentals and environment are this strong.\nJust about everybody is long real estate. … Wasn’t almost every rationalization for why we shouldn’t fret about any real estate bubble true when real estate crashed the last few times?\nLast month, the IMF reported that “the global economy remains on track for robust growth in 2007 and 2008. … Moreover, downside risks to the outlook seem less threatening than at the time of the September 2006 World Economic Outlook.” Has the IMF ever gotten the outlook right?\nThis utter disregard for risk permeates the sell side, too, as evidenced by this broker note from Bear this morning: “Worries — the market is running out of major concerns.” Not surprisingly, I suppose, I’m going to flip that statement as I find I have more major concerns about the market and economy today than I’ve had at any point in the past five years.\nA Citi board member recently told me that I had a “lot of guts” for having launched a tech fund in October 2002. I think you’d have to have a lot of guts to launch a tech fund in May 2007! I’m focusing more on the short side than anything else right now.\nBeware when things are too easy\nCody back in real time, 2021. I’m not saying the markets are about to tank like they did in 2008. But I am saying, once again, that I know way too many random hard-working people who are convinced that they can make big money in cryptos and meme stocks and by trading, trading, trading.\nAnd all my analysis points to an unfortunate risk/reward set up for the aggressive bulls here.\nThat story above about Nortel: I’m here to tell you that you won’t always get a chance to sell when the charts stop working. You don’t always get a chance to lock in your gains while you think it’s easy.\nI’ve been in this business, picking stocks and helping people manage their money for 25 years, and it seems obvious to me that trading and investing and making profits and keeping those profits is very hard to do over many years. There are times it seems easy. That’s often the best time to get cautious. Because if it really were easy, nobody would work their real jobs. We could all just trade stocks to each other all day and make all the money we need. Yeah, right.\nI have a new name or two I’m digging hard into this week, one in AI and another that’s trying to revolutionize long-term gig employment trends. Until then, I’m staying steady as she goes, even as so many others think YOLO and FOMO are just fun, little acronyms.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":48,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":171352314,"gmtCreate":1626707910438,"gmtModify":1703763819146,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Comment pls","listText":"Comment pls","text":"Comment pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":10,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/171352314","repostId":"1146536243","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1146536243","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626683272,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1146536243?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-19 16:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Morgan Stanley: This Cycle Will Be \"Hotter But Shorter\" Than Usual","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1146536243","media":"zerohedge","summary":"This cycle is unusual.

Let&#39;s go over my near-term concerns with all three investments.</p><p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F682427%2Fgettycrash.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"459\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><h2>GameStop</h2><p>The original meme stock is rolling again. Shares of the video game retailer soared 54% -- yes, 54% -- in the last three trading days. What can possibly get in the way of a meme stock mowing down its short sellers? Earnings season. GameStop shares have declined the trading day after reporting earnings in 11 of the past 14 quarters. Some of the slides have been fairly substantial, even last year when GameStop was off to the races. The retailer will peel back the curtain on its fiscal first quarter results on Wednesday afternoon.</p><p>GameStop&#39;s performance when it has fresh financials to put out has been sobering. It has posted a larger-than-expected loss for three consecutive quarters. The $1.32 billion analysts are forecasting in revenue is a small year-over-year increase, but 15% below its top-line results three years ago in its last pre-pandemic fiscal first quarter. More importantly, the stock was in the single digits at the time.</p><p>GameStop is making some interesting moves in NFTs and crypto, but those markets have also been hit hard in recent months. GameStop is going to need a strong report to justify last week&#39;s gains. History tells us that you probably don&#39;t want to bet on that.</p><h2>ChargePoint</h2><p>There&#39;s no doubt that the electric-vehicle market will have years of explosive growth, but it&#39;s probably too early to bet on the growing number of companies that are providing charging stations. It could be a race to the bottom, and players building out their networks now may never turn a profit. Analysts don&#39;t see ChargePoint in the black until 2026, and by then the market will probably be far more cutthroat than it is now.</p><p>ChargePoint reports fresh financials after Tuesday&#39;s market close. Momentum hasn&#39;t been kind. It has posted larger losses than analysts were targeting in back-to-back quarters. Wall Street pros have been widening their expected deficits for the quarter it will discuss on Tuesday as well as the current fiscal year.</p><h2>Conn&#39;s</h2><p>Let&#39;s close out the list with yet <i>another</i> name reporting quarterly results this week. Wednesday morning is when Conn&#39;s steps up to the plate. The big-box retailer that sells furniture, appliances, and consumer electronics could be in for a rough financial update. We&#39;ve already seen a few retailers warn that guests have been shifting their spending away form big-ticket home items. Conn&#39;s also had the problematic distinction of missing Wall Street estimates on both ends of its income statement last time out.</p><p>The stock tumbled 26% in the four trading days following its last report.

All three investments I figured would be in for a rough few trading days moved sharply higher. The three names I thought were going to move lower for the week -- Alibaba, Tesla, and Nordstrom -- finished up 8%, 14%, and 25%, respectively, averaging out to a 15.7% gain. Ouch!The S&P 500 soared 6.6% for the week, but naturally the stocks I figured would fare worse did not. I was wrong, but I have still been right in 22 of the past 32 weeks.I see GameStop (GME 6.81%), ChargePoint (CHPT 13.89%), and Conn's (CONN -1.53%) as stocks you may want to consider steering clear of this week. Let's go over my near-term concerns with all three investments.Image source: Getty Images.GameStopThe original meme stock is rolling again. Shares of the video game retailer soared 54% -- yes, 54% -- in the last three trading days. What can possibly get in the way of a meme stock mowing down its short sellers? Earnings season. GameStop shares have declined the trading day after reporting earnings in 11 of the past 14 quarters. Some of the slides have been fairly substantial, even last year when GameStop was off to the races. The retailer will peel back the curtain on its fiscal first quarter results on Wednesday afternoon.GameStop's performance when it has fresh financials to put out has been sobering. It has posted a larger-than-expected loss for three consecutive quarters. The $1.32 billion analysts are forecasting in revenue is a small year-over-year increase, but 15% below its top-line results three years ago in its last pre-pandemic fiscal first quarter. More importantly, the stock was in the single digits at the time.GameStop is making some interesting moves in NFTs and crypto, but those markets have also been hit hard in recent months. GameStop is going to need a strong report to justify last week's gains. History tells us that you probably don't want to bet on that.ChargePointThere's no doubt that the electric-vehicle market will have years of explosive growth, but it's probably too early to bet on the growing number of companies that are providing charging stations. It could be a race to the bottom, and players building out their networks now may never turn a profit. Analysts don't see ChargePoint in the black until 2026, and by then the market will probably be far more cutthroat than it is now.ChargePoint reports fresh financials after Tuesday's market close. Momentum hasn't been kind. It has posted larger losses than analysts were targeting in back-to-back quarters. Wall Street pros have been widening their expected deficits for the quarter it will discuss on Tuesday as well as the current fiscal year.Conn'sLet's close out the list with yet another name reporting quarterly results this week. Wednesday morning is when Conn's steps up to the plate. The big-box retailer that sells furniture, appliances, and consumer electronics could be in for a rough financial update. We've already seen a few retailers warn that guests have been shifting their spending away form big-ticket home items. Conn's also had the problematic distinction of missing Wall Street estimates on both ends of its income statement last time out.The stock tumbled 26% in the four trading days following its last report. Is there any reason to expect that Conn's will fare any better in a climate that has grown even more challenging? It could be a tough week for the retailer.It's going to be a bumpy road for some of these investments. If you're looking for safe stocks, you aren't likely to find them in GameStop, ChargePoint, or Conn's this week.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":142,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9033553925,"gmtCreate":1646319907671,"gmtModify":1676534116794,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"haha","listText":"haha","text":"haha","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9033553925","repostId":"1191803969","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1191803969","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1646306336,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1191803969?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-03 19:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood Didn’t Come This Far to Quit Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1191803969","media":" Financial Times","summary":"A year ago, she managed more than $60bn.

Now she faces the toughest battle of her career</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bc7309eb5e0b8662aab9d630e09fa007\" tg-width=\"2835\" tg-height=\"2835\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Cathie Wood’s favourite scripture is Psalm 91, the hymn of protection. The founder of Ark Invest starts telling me the story of the Miracle of Dunkirk, when Allied soldiers were rescued from doomed French beaches in 1940. “A group of soldiers were huddled saying Psalm 91,” she says, “and they were one of the few groups of soldiers saved on that day.”</p><p>Wood’s eight-year-old investment management firm is named after the Ark of the Covenant – the chest said to have held the Ten Commandments – which was taken by the Israelites into battle. “Ark also has to do with battle,” Wood continues. “Battling the traditional world order is what we’re doing.”</p><p>In less than a decade, Wood has emerged as the public face of a tech-driven bull market on steroids. She championed actively managed exchange-traded funds (ETFs), a type of investment that combines the stock-picking normally associated with mutual funds with the convenience and tax benefits of ETFs.</p><p>Her big, concentrated bets on “disruptive innovation”, borderline outlandish predictions on everything from shares in electric carmaker Tesla to the price of bitcoin and her savvy use of social media helped to drive assets in Ark’s overall stable of ETFs to a value of $61bn at their peak in February last year, making her the most prominent and scrutinised female investor in the world.</p><p>Ark rose during a period characterised by retail trading, meme stocks and surging cryptocurrencies, with thousands of punters opening new brokerage accounts online and using Twitter and Reddit to exchange investing ideas. By freely sharing Ark’s research, Wood developed a cult following online, where to her disciples she is “Auntie Cathie” or “Cathie Bae” and where she has spawned a range of merchandise, including a T-shirt that depicts her riding a bull with the slogan “The Queen of the bull market”. Another just reads “In Cathie We Trust”.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b57995e0d1a749fd8f8be3d788fd76cf\" tg-width=\"790\" tg-height=\"790\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Wood has fans at the highest level of finance as well. “Regardless of performance trends, it’s clear that Cathie is disrupting the asset management industry in order to capture the imagination of a new generation of investors,” says Katie Koch, a partner at Goldman Sachs Asset Management. “She has demonstrated great respect for the retail investor by democratising access to information.” A top investor in growth companies tells me, “I admire Cathie’s spirit and willingness to put her head above the parapet.”</p><p>At the moment, though, Wood is in the toughest battle of her career. The 66-year-old is fighting against market momentum and trying to halt huge losses and outflows. Assets in Ark’s overall stable of thematic exchange-traded funds have dropped to $23.1bn since its 2021 high. Its flagship Ark Disruptive Innovation ETF, stock market ticker ARKK, has more than halved in value in the same period, during which time every single one of the fund’s 36 stocks has dropped. During the same period, the Nasdaq fell about 2.4 per cent.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1adaed74f4f1f444417dec6e7e525c02\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"372\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>The cover of FT Magazine, March 6/7</span></p><p>On the face of it, ARKK boasts a stellar long-term track record: it has made an average of 38 per cent a year over the past five years, boosted by eye-watering gains of 157 per cent in 2020 as the pandemic turbocharged investor excitement about the technologies that underpin its portfolios – DNA sequencing, robotics, energy storage, artificial intelligence and the blockchain. Ark’s returns “sit in very rarefied air”, says Ben Johnson, director of global ETF research at data provider Morningstar. But most of its longer-term returns came when it had a much smaller asset base, meaning that “most investors in Ark’s funds are underwater”.</p><p>Critics – and there are a lot of them – argue that Wood’s success owes more to the Federal Reserve’s loose monetary policy than to her investment research or stock-picking prowess. Her quasi-prophetic certainty about the future is detached from reality, they argue, and Ark’s performance has been inflated by pouring money into thinly traded stocks.</p><p>“She’s brought a lot of attention to the concept of innovation, which is great,” says a prominent venture capitalist. “But the difficulty she has is that she believes in stories. Sometimes you have to disassociate the story from the business model and the valuation.” A top executive at a multitrillion-dollar asset manager says: “She tells a whole story that’s almost impervious to facts.” And a New York-based hedge fund manager adds: “She may be right in the long run, we just don’t know who the survivors will be in all of these industries. And the valuations are crazy.”</p><p>Since the beginning of this year, sentiment has been turning against the more speculative part of the market in which Ark operates, and the Russia-Ukraine war has further roiled global markets. Waves of monetary stimulus during the pandemic helped gloss over the risks of investing in the types of hot, fast-growing and loss-making tech companies Wood favours.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8bccdf341bcf5b32a79cb07dae3345cf\" tg-width=\"541\" tg-height=\"705\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Now the Fed has begun scaling back support and US interest rates are likely to rise. Tech stocks, whose high prices are predicated on the potential for bumper future earnings, are seen as especially susceptible. “Every bull market has its geniuses who buy the hottest, most aggressive stocks and go up more than the market,” says a short seller who is on the opposite side of many of Wood’s trades. “But the downside of this stuff is just as spectacular as the upside. We saw this in the dotcom era.”</p><p>Many investors see parallels with the late-1990s in today’s growth-over-profits mentality and perceived invincibility of tech companies. Back then, the internet boom was followed by the stock market crash of 2000, and the subsequent downturn wiped almost four-fifths off the value of the technology-heavy Nasdaq index.</p><p>The bust made cautionary tales of fund managers such as Garrett Van Wagoner and Alberto Vilar, once hailed for their golden touch. “Cathie’s a boom or bust investor because she doesn’t disinvest or risk manage,” says Lisa Shalett, chief investment officer at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management and Wood’s former boss at asset manager AllianceBernstein. “This is the challenge that she has had for her entire career.”</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5c68be02b631e3d3d35fbfc2b9a76dab\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Clockwise from far right: Wood ringing the bell with her mentor economist Arthur Laffer; in conversation with Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey; Ark’s use of social media helped drive its success; Wood speaking at a conference in Brooklyn  © ARK INVEST/TWITTER; Alex Flynn/Bloomberg; ARK INVEST; ARK INVEST/YOUTUBE</span></p><p>None of which seems to have dampened Wood’s conviction. “We’re at our best when the odds are against us,” she says. “For compliance reasons, I’ve been asked not to give numbers, but the compound annual rate of return expectation that we have during the next five years is the largest I have ever seen in my career.” When critics say she is nothing more than a product of the zeitgeist, Wood responds that her whole career has been about learning to ignore what’s current. And that though her thesis is simple – the future of investing is investing in the future – she’s spent a lifetime coming to it.</p><hr/><p><b>On November 25, I board a plane</b> heading for Nashville, Tennessee, for an audience with Arthur Laffer, the sprightly octogenarian economist who claims credit for President Ronald Reagan’s 1981 tax cuts. A few hours later, my taxi pulls up to a pink Spanish colonial house in a leafy suburb. Laffer answers the door himself, but I barely have a chance to shake his hand before four dogs of varying sizes come bounding towards me.</p><p>Laffer is best known for popularising the Laffer Curve, which he is said to have drawn on a napkin for Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney in 1974 when they worked in the Ford administration, to illustrate his argument that lower rates would boost tax revenues. My motivation for seeking him out is his decades-long mentorship of Wood. When ARKK listed on the New York Stock Exchange in October 2014, Laffer was there with her to ring the bell. Wood was one of the people Laffer invited to accompany him to the Oval Office when Donald Trump awarded him with the Presidential Medal of Freedom three years ago. (Wood supported Trump for president and donated to his campaign.)</p><p>Laffer is warm and welcoming as he ushers me past the dining room, where a long table is laid for Thanksgiving dinner, and into the kitchen. He prepares mugs of tea and plates of sushi, before leading me into the sitting room. Which is how I find myself sinking into a large leather armchair while I receive a whistle-stop tour of supply-side economics from a man who has made studying taxation and incentives his life’s work.</p><p>Framed photographs of assorted Kennedys, Thatchers, Reagans and Laffers look down upon me, surrounded by the four dogs (two Cane Corsos, a Great Dane and a Peek-A-Pom – that’s a Pekingese Pomeranian), who are now asleep. Several times, we are interrupted by calls from one of Laffer’s six children and 13 grandchildren. “Happy Turkey Day to you, my darling. I’m just sitting here with a reporter from the Financial Times. Can I call you back?”</p><p>About an hour in, as Laffer is praising Tennessee’s low-tax regime, which has lured companies such as AllianceBernstein, the mention of Wood’s former employer provides a natural segue. Laffer tells me about their first encounter in 1976 at the University of Southern California, when Wood was a student and he was a professor of business economics. Despite being an undergraduate, she lobbied him to let her into his graduate-level economics class until Laffer relented.</p><p>Wood got off to a rough start. “At the midterm, she did very poorly,” Laffer recalls. He says it was common at the time for students to cry in his class or drop out altogether as a consequence of its difficulty. “She didn’t do that. She said, ‘So what do I have to do to get better?’ And she did get better. Cathie works harder than anyone I know. She always has.”</p><p>Laffer often started his classes with a joke or some bit of relatable news to draw students in. By the time a seminar ended, the blackboard was a scrawl of equations and calculations. “We didn’t know what hit us,” Wood says. She calls Laffer’s ability to combine storytelling and hard data “a gift”.</p><p>Cathie Duddy was born in Los Angeles, the eldest of four children. Her parents were Irish immigrants who had come separately to the US “with great dreams of making it” and met at a dance in New Jersey. She credits her father, a radar systems engineer, first in the Irish Army and then the United States Air Force, with encouraging an interest in technology and economics. “It was the dawn of the electronic age, as he used to tell me quite frequently, and he was passionate about that,” says Wood. “It was also his ticket to a good life.” She describes her mother as “the laughter in our lives”.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/96769edf81b0e8f093f366df25b553dc\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"875\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>‘We’re at our best when the odds are against us,’ Wood tells the FT</span></p><p>Before Wood graduated from USC, Laffer introduced her to Los Angeles-based asset manager Capital Group. She worked at Capital for three years as an assistant economist before moving to New York in 1980 to join asset manager Jennison Associates, where she was hired as its chief economist. She was 24. “Cathie turned out to be better and smarter than all the famous economists of that time,” says Spiros “Sig” Segalas, a former US Navy officer and Jennison’s co-founder and chief investment officer. “I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.”</p><p>At the time Wood joined Jennison, the US was experiencing severe inflation and interest rates were in the double digits. “She believed very strongly in deflation…and she was right,” says Segalas, who became another mentor. He knew many tech industry pioneers, including HP’s founders Bill Hewlett and David Packard and Intel co-founder Gordon Moore.</p><p>“Sig knew – talk about the dawn of the electronic age – he knew the people that made that happen,” says Wood. “He imbued me with the notion that technology solves problems and innovation is key to growth, that you can’t just look at earnings. You have to look at revenues. Revenue growth consistently over time means companies have to innovate, or else someone will steal a march from them.”</p><p>Around 1982, Wood wanted to resign to work for Laffer. “Do you really want to be Art Laffer’s disciple for the rest of your career?” Segalas quipped and talked her into staying. By this point, Wood was looking to move from economics into equity research and money management. Segalas had no problem with this in theory, but he was loath to take stocks away from analysts who were already covering them. So Wood waited around for what she called “fall through the cracks” companies that didn’t fit into neat categories and that other analysts didn’t want to cover.</p><p>Reuters, the database publishing company, was one example. Technology analysts felt it was a publishing company, and publishing analysts felt it was a tech company. Wood volunteered to cover it, and what was then called database publishing turned out to be the precursor to the internet. She says the experience taught her to investigate areas that others have dismissed.</p><p>She worked at Jennison for almost two decades, during which she married Robert Remington Wood and they had three children. Wood speaks fondly of this period of her career, of learning to “put the pieces of the puzzle together about how the world is going to work, not how it has worked”. She also learnt the value of diversity. “Sig has given so many women in our business their big breaks,” she says. “He really believes what a lot of women’s groups are saying and studies have shown that when you add diversity, you get better investment results.”</p><p>In 1995, Wood and her husband moved from New York to Connecticut. Robert, who had studied English literature and worked stints in institutional sales in the financial services industry, wanted to concentrate on his writing. “I said… if we move out to the hinterlands, to this wonderful place to raise children, one of us has to stay at home,” Wood recalls, “and I’m not going to be the one. So that’s what we did.” Two of his plays were produced off Broadway, including The Bridge in Scarsdale in 2002. The couple eventually divorced in 2003, and Robert died of cancer in 2018. Before he did, Wood welcomed him back into the house so the family could be together.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/80e8b2b582c998fa762a9b331c40ad5f\" tg-width=\"863\" tg-height=\"751\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>In 1998, as the dotcom bubble was reaching its climax, Wood and one of her colleagues, Lulu Wang, left Jennison to set up a fund in New York called Tupelo Capital Management. By the end of March 2000, the peak of the tech bubble, Tupelo’s assets under management had reached almost $1.4bn, according to a regulatory filing. Twelve months later, Tupelo’s assets had slumped to around $200mn, according to a separate regulatory filing.</p><p>In other words, Tupelo’s assets under management lost over four-fifths of their value during the dotcom crash. It’s not possible to establish how much of this was due to performance losses and how much to investors pulling their cash. Wood says, “While we disagreed about strategic moves at the end of my tenure, we parted ways with mutual respect.” Wang declined to comment.</p><p>Wood dusted herself off and joined AllianceBernstein later that year as chief investment officer for thematic portfolios. Lisa Shalett, her boss at the time, recalls her “first memory of Cathie is of a whirling dervish running around in a trench coat weighed down by bags and bags of research. You would see her early in the morning or running from the office late at night to catch the train.”</p><p>But Wood’s track record at AllianceBernstein was both volatile and underwhelming, according to Morningstar. Shalett says that Wood’s investing style was a “rollercoaster ride” for clients and that it found greater traction with retail investors than with the institutional market. Even so, Wood continued to display the same conviction Segalas had admired at Jennison. “She is disciplined and missionary in her approach. She’s an evangelist for tech, and it’s infectious,” says Shalett. “We all love a great story. She does her research; she believes what she believes. Sometimes when the market moves against her, she digs in more.”</p><hr/><p><b>On a glorious August day in 2012,</b> Wood returned home from work to an uncharacteristically quiet house. Her three children were at summer camp, and it was the first time she’d been alone that long since she moved to Connecticut in the mid-1990s. “I’m kind of stunned by the silence,” Wood recounts. “I walk into the kitchen to the counter. And I’m not happy, and I’m not sad. I’m just in that zen state.</p><p>“Boom. That’s when it hit me. Why don’t you apply the technologies that have been disrupting other industries to your own? Think about it: your industry finances all of these disruptions that have changed other industries, and it hasn’t embraced them itself.” Within five minutes, the key foundations of what would become Ark’s approach came to her: adopting open source research, embracing online media, investing in innovation.</p><p>Wood tells me the epiphany marked the culmination of six years of prayer. From about 2006, she had struggled to make sense of the changing financial landscape. On the advice of someone at her church, Walnut Hill Community Church, Wood had spent each morning reading from a devotional as her coffee was brewing, asking God to “show me what to do”. When it all came together, she knew “I had to start this firm, and I knew it would be successful. I knew it would be difficult too.”</p><p>Wood believes she was “born with the gift of faith”, and it deepened through testing times like the stock market crashes in 2000 and 2008 and her divorce, she told an interviewer in 2020 on Jesus Calling, a podcast. When we discuss her religious practices, Wood chooses her words carefully. “Before I make a big move, I will always pray,” she says. “Prayer is a form of meditation too. It’s a very grounding experience. People who meditate deeply experience the same thing I do. And in those moments, I get answers… The holy spirit, if you want to just dwell on that, is the same thing as the Force.”</p><p>Initially, Wood approached Peter Kraus, then chair and chief executive of AllianceBernstein, with her unorthodox pitch: she wanted to launch an actively managed ETF business devoted to disruptive and innovative companies. At the time, the ETF industry was dominated by passive funds that tracked an index such as the S&amp;P 500 and was run by players like BlackRock, Vanguard Group and State Street Global Advisors. “I said no,” Kraus, who is now chair and chief executive of asset manager Aperture Investors, tells me, “because it didn’t seem like a high probability it would succeed. It was not because I didn’t like her. I don’t regret it.”</p><p>Laffer also had doubts. “I talked with her at enormous length when she was going to set up Ark,” he says. “She weighed my advice and then went the other way.” Laffer worried about Wood giving up a stable job to start up in a fledgling part of the market and putting too much of her own money into Ark. “I did not want her to lose everything she had.”</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/75fe2bfe30d97901ecb7cf1f3aefdd77\" tg-width=\"970\" tg-height=\"757\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>In January 2014, Wood founded Ark. For the first three years, she funded the business with her own money. (She rewarded Laffer with a small stake in Ark Invest, of less than 1 per cent.) Wood received an early investment of around $20mn for her first four ETFs from former hedge fund manager Bill Hwang, whom she met when they were both advisers to a religious group that ministers to young people on Wall Street. Hwang is now infamous for the implosion in March 2021 of his family office, Archegos Capital Management. A person with knowledge of the matter says Hwang admired Wood’s expertise in growth stocks, but that the investment in Ark was a show of support, rather than strategic. Hwang declined to comment for this article.</p><p>For its first two years, Ark built but the clients failed to come. So Wood sold minority stakes and signed deals to help sell her funds. First to Resolute Investment Managers, an asset management platform and distributor, in 2016 and, the following year, to Japan’s Nikko Asset Management. It would take the pandemic – and a big and prescient bet on Tesla – to turn Wood into a star.</p><p>In October 2020, as Ark’s performance was riding high, Resolute said it intended to exercise an option to buy a majority stake in the company. Wood pushed back. One former Ark employee tells me that, during this period, Wood was convinced she would regain control of the company even when colleagues thought it was highly unlikely. Wood turned to Todd Boehly, founder of Eldridge Industries, a holding company that makes investments, to lend Ark the funds to repurchase Resolute’s option and later reward Ark’s top employees with a share of the business.</p><p>The former employee says Wood “feels very much on a journey doing God’s work. She’s moved by forces beyond the asset management game. She has confidence from her craft, but also she feels like she’s on the right side of… I don’t know what to call it. It gives her energy and strength. The God element is more a guide of her life path. God is not telling her to buy or sell shares.”</p><p>Under the terms of the 2020 deal, Resolute remained Ark’s main distribution partner in the US, and Wood remained its majority shareholder. She was more personally exposed than ever. Resolute sold at what would turn out to be the top of the market. And when 2021 arrived, Ark’s performance began to unravel.</p><hr/><p>The town of Bethel is named after a Hebrew word meaning “house of God”. Unlike Connecticut’s Gold Coast, where prominent financiers like hedge fund manager Ray Dalio own expensive waterfront properties overlooking the Long Island Sound, the sleepy inland streets here are lined with traditional New England timber-framed saltbox houses. Many of them are flying the Stars and Stripes. I’m here to attend a morning service at Walnut Hill, where Wood was an active member of the congregation until she moved to Florida last year.</p><p>Walnut Hill is a nondenominational, evangelical megachurch, with four campuses across the state. Its purpose is “igniting a passion for Jesus in Connecticut, New England and around the world”, according to its website. In the vast entrance hall of the Bethel Campus, a sign hangs above the door reading “Go bring heaven to earth!”</p><p>As I wait for the service to begin, I track down Reverend Brian Mowrey, one of Walnut Hill’s lead pastors. Wood has been coming here for more than a decade and has “been very engaged in life here”, Mowrey tells me. “She has a unique gift of being a futurist, very discerning of where things are going in our world, a great sensitivity to how God is moving and speaking.” He won’t say whether he’s an investor in Ark.</p><p>We make our way to the darkened auditorium for the service, picking up our own individually packaged Eucharist on the way in. The lingering pandemic also means that the hall, which has capacity for hundreds of people, is far from full. Everything is broadcast online. The service is accompanied by a live band, and today’s theme for the homily is “Developing a Heavenly Mindset”.</p><p>Afterwards, I’m standing in the church car park waiting for a friend to come and collect me, when a retired couple, John and Rita DePasquale, strike up a conversation. They have noticed me looking a bit lost. John, 76, who used to work in promotions and consumer packaging, says he came to his faith in his early thirties. “I was burning the candle at both ends, and then I found another way, a spiritual way.” He met Wood through the church but says he’s had “very little” interaction with her. He did, however, become an investor in Ark, following a recommendation from one of its clients: DePasquale’s son, Reverend Adam DePasquale, another of the lead pastors at Walnut Hill.</p><p>The elder DePasquale says that, normally, his investment criteria include being a well-known company that’s a leader in its field and paying a consistent dividend. Still, Ark piqued his interest enough that he made a roughly $12,000 investment towards the end of 2020, when ARKK was trading at around $120. “The things she’s invested in made a lot of sense,” DePasquale says. “I got a sense that she sees paradigm shifts taking place – a gift.”</p><p>Three months later, I check in with DePasquale to find out how he’s feeling about his investment, which is now down 40 per cent. He says he doesn’t have “any desire to bail out” or any financial need to sell right now. “I’ll wait. I have faith that it will come back, and she’ll turn it around. I think she has the right attitude towards innovation… I don’t want to buy high and sell low. That’s not a remedy to make money.”</p><p>As our telephone call draws to a close, DePasquale asks if I would mind if he prayed for me. Not at all, I respond, assuming he means later on, privately. “Dear God,” he starts saying into the other end of the line, “thank you for Harriet and how she has used her skills and passion to seek wisdom… May you bless and protect her.”</p><hr/><p>In February 2019, Tesla’s stock was trading at around $60. Ark, which holds a significant position in the electric carmaker, was bullish on its prospects, estimating that its share price could reach $3,000 by 2025. Wood was in a meeting room at the firm’s New York offices when she heard screams and laughter from her colleagues outside. She went out to find that Tesla chief executive Elon Musk had sent a direct Twitter message to Tasha Keeney, an Ark analyst, complimenting her on her work. Later, Musk joined Wood and Keeney on Ark’s regular FYI - For Your Innovation podcast. When I contact Musk via email about this story, he shoots back a single sentence: “Cathie and the Ark team think deeply about the future and are mostly correct. — EM”.</p><p>Ark’s ability to speak in the emoji-laden, highly referential language of the meme stock generation is one example of what Ark means when it markets itself as an “untraditional investment manager”. Another is atypical hiring. The company has fewer than 50 employees, including around 20 in research and investing. Wood has surrounded herself with a team of young analysts, with backgrounds in subjects such as computer engineering or molecular biology, rather than a traditional grounding in finance. She says this is the best way to identify disruptive trends and to avoid consensus thinking. “I really believe that young people are at an advantage,” she says, because they “have one foot in the new world” and are native to certain parts of the market such as cryptocurrencies.</p><p>Wood says the active management industry is dominated by short-term thinking and index trackers that avoid taking big bets and have high position overlap with their peers. Fear of the new, in other words. Ark set out to have a portfolio that has little overlap with the Nasdaq and the S&amp;P 500. “The old world order describes [Ark] as highly speculative, highly risky and these other disparaging words,” she says. “Whereas what we are saying is, ‘No, you are in harm’s way. You are taking a risk by not doing the kind of research we’re doing.’”</p><p>Closely guarded proprietary research is the norm in the mainstream asset management industry. But Ark publishes all its research and stock price targets online; it also discloses its positions and trades, which one critic says amounts to “playing poker with their cards faced up”. This practice certainly makes it easy to follow Wood. Unaffiliated websites, such as Cathiesark.com, publish the positions, trades and weight of all companies in Ark’s stable of ETFs daily. An entire ecosystem of copycat and related products have sprung up around Wood’s funds as a result.</p><p>This includes products that allow investors to magnify their exposure to Ark’s ETFs – or to directly wager against them. Last November, Tuttle Capital Management unveiled the Nasdaq-listed Tuttle Short Innovation ETF (ticker: SARK), which gives investors the ability to bet against Wood’s ARKK. Since launching, SARK has grown from $5mn to $325mn in assets under management and is up 24 per cent this year. “Some people are using it as an anti-Cathie Wood bet,” says chief executive Matthew Tuttle, while others are using it as a hedge against their exposure to growth stocks at a time when interest rates and inflation are rising.</p><p>Some people see flaws in Ark’s business model. Edwin Dorsey,a short seller and author of the Bear Cave newsletter, has criticised the team’s lack of experience. For example, Ark’s chief operating officer, Tom Staudt, who is in charge of its risk management, is a former account executive at a television station in Michigan. “At Ark you get out-of-the-box thinkers from non-traditional backgrounds,” says Dorsey. “But it relies a lot on young analysts who might be in over their skis.” He believes that Ark’s research is good at identifying technological trends, but he doesn’t “think it’s that rigorous when it comes to selecting individual stocks”.</p><p>That can mean missing red flags that ought to have come up during due diligence. Dorsey says examples among Ark’s current or previous investments include: German payments company Wirecard, which collapsed into insolvency in June last year, following a multiyear fraud exposed by the FT; and, Vuzix, an augmented reality glasses company in which Ark owns more than 10 per cent, which has a history of consistent unprofitability, a short seller lawsuit and an informal enquiry by the US Securities and Exchange Commission.</p><p>The validity of Ark’s financial models and headline-making predictions has also come into question. At least two people reckon they found erroneous judgments in the company’s publicly released valuation model for Tesla. These errors, they believe, contribute to an overestimation of what the electric carmaker could be worth. Some of Wood’s public predictions strain credulity. Notably in a 2018 video, she declared “monogenic stem cell therapy” a $2tn revenue opportunity, with “polygenic” versions of the treatment worth “however many trillions” more. Monogenic stem cell therapy is not a concept scientists recognise. Wood says Ark’s research on innovation is “the best in the financial world.”</p><p>And then there’s Ark’s footprint in the marketplace. When it buys and sells positions in smaller, less frequently traded companies typical of the innovation space, Ark can have an outsized impact on their share price because these types of positions are less liquid than blue chips like Tesla and Zoom. (Across its ETFs, Ark owns stakes of more than 5 per cent in 37 companies, and owns more than 10 per cent of 18 of these companies, according to Morningstar.)</p><p>“As Ark has been buying these small-cap companies, it has been pushing their share prices up,” says Dan Izzo, chief executive of GHCO, a registered market maker. “It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy on the way up.” Crucially, he notes, this works both ways. “If redemptions made Ark a forced seller of illiquid names then it could push down their share prices.” This could result in a downward spiral for Ark.</p><hr/><p>For all Ark’s talk of transparency, it takes more than four months before Wood finally agrees to an interview. By this point, it’s mid-February and ARKK has halved from its peak the year before. The short sellers are being vindicated. Wood pops on to my laptop screen, instantly recognisable by her trademark horn-rimmed glasses and poker straight hair. She looks smart in a striped shirt, dark highlights framing her high cheekbones and perfect white teeth. “We are as calm and focused as you could possibly imagine,” she says. Despite the market turmoil and the mounting losses in her portfolios she sleeps “very easily” at night, “knowing that we have never been in a period of more innovation in history”.</p><p>There’s one exception: the prospect of investors pulling their money from Ark’s fund at the worst possible moment. If clients do so now, Wood says they will turn “what we believe are temporary losses into permanent losses. What’s going to happen is the same thing that happened in 2008-2009. Those who got out had such seller’s remorse” because they missed the subsequent market rebound.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c548b284747c1e69422ed48331632d7a\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"1050\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>‘The old world order describes [Ark] as highly speculative, highly risky and these other disparaging words,’ Wood says. ‘Whereas what we are saying is, “No, you are in harm’s way. You are taking a risk by not doing the kind of research we’re doing”’</span></p><p>We take the big controversies facing Wood and Ark one at a time.</p><p>Critics have suggested that the firm’s transparency makes it vulnerable to front-running. If the market can see everything Ark is doing, traders could use that information to try to get ahead of it. This is especially a risk in a downward market. If Ark, for example, had to sell positions to meet redemptions, other investors could see that and sell off first, pushing down prices even more. Wood dismisses this. “It’s very hard to front-run us,” she says, adding that if she sees the price of a stock that Ark is buying starting to move up dramatically, she halts the order. The same thing happens on the way down. “We can stop the sale if [they’re] driving a stock down because they know we’re just going to be selling, selling, selling. I can stop it if I want to.”</p><p>Wood is more philosophical about the short sellers: “Well, that’s what makes a market. And if we’re right, they’re going to have to cover all of their shorts, and that’ll help with the swoosh when it happens. And I truly do believe it will.” She says she does not take the existence of SARK and others like it personally. “They’re not doing any research. That’s why that strategy is not going to work in the long run. It’ll work from time to time when we’re in risk-off periods.”</p><p>Ark allows investors to redeem their money on a daily basis; the risk in a downturn such as this one is that they pull out in droves. But Ark’s asset retention has been better than expected, says Wood. She believes this is a result of Ark’s communications strategy. “We overcommunicate. We are constantly putting out research. We are tweeting to let our clients know nothing has changed from our point of view.”</p><p>She believes that “this has helped our clients trust us” and keep their Ark investment. Tuttle agrees: “ARKK has not had as many outflows as you’d expect, given the returns.” But he thinks it’s because “retail investors have been conditioned to ‘buy the dip’ in growth stocks”, a strategy that has worked since 2009. “At some point there’s a level where everything starts to waver,” he adds, “I just don’t know where that is.”</p><p>An important element of Wood’s vision — and one of the drivers of her seemingly boundless optimism — is that the deflationary trend of recent decades and generally low interest rates will continue: technological innovation suppresses costs, while companies whose products are being rendered obsolete will have to cut prices. “Many people think we have a permanent inflation problem,” she says. “We don’t.” If anything she believes that problems that emerged during the pandemic “are accelerating the rate at which innovation is taking place”.</p><p>But Wood is fighting against the tide of central banks. Jennison’s Segalas says: “The problem right now is that interest rates are going up, and that tends to hurt valuations, particularly of growth companies with no current earnings power. A lot will depend on what happens to inflation and interest rates as to when her strategy is going to work.” He adds: “Eventually I think she’ll be right, but I don’t know how long that takes.” Eldridge’s Boehly says, “Ark has low fixed costs, very modest leverage and substantial liquidity, which allows it to ride out market volatility.”</p><p>The challenge for Wood is that she may be correct in identifying the big trends in innovation but back the wrong companies. Even if her bets are right in the long term, Ark’s losses in the short term could wipe it out. To paraphrase Keynes, the stock market can remain irrational longer than many fund managers can stay solvent.</p><p>Wood has clearly pondered the question of longevity. “Many people in our business… they’d be quite happy to see us disappear,” she says. Repeatedly during our conversation she refers to herself as a “lightning rod” for the industry. To these critics, Wood represents the worst aspects of a frothy market, the gate-crashing of low-information retail investors and the triumph of a good story over hard data. None of which can end soon enough. For her retail following, she represents a middle finger to all of that. Fans want to believe her stories of a better, brighter future filled with flying cars, green energy and longer, healthier lives.</p><p>But as the interview draws to a close, Wood is keen to make one last, important point. When it comes to Ark’s investments, “the courage of my conviction” is not the result of any higher calling. It “comes from our research”, she says. “I just want to make that very clear.”</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1580170736413","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>Cathie Wood Didn’t Come This Far to Quit 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\">\nCathie Wood Didn’t Come This Far to Quit Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-03 19:18 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.ft.com/content/a93f4de2-35d2-44e1-a6a1-0000cba0dd4d><strong> Financial Times</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>A year ago, she managed more than $60bn.

Now she faces the toughest battle of her careerCathie Wood’s favourite scripture is Psalm 91, the hymn of protection. The founder of Ark Invest starts telling me the story of the Miracle of Dunkirk, when Allied soldiers were rescued from doomed French beaches in 1940. “A group of soldiers were huddled saying Psalm 91,” she says, “and they were one of the few groups of soldiers saved on that day.”Wood’s eight-year-old investment management firm is named after the Ark of the Covenant – the chest said to have held the Ten Commandments – which was taken by the Israelites into battle. “Ark also has to do with battle,” Wood continues. “Battling the traditional world order is what we’re doing.”In less than a decade, Wood has emerged as the public face of a tech-driven bull market on steroids. She championed actively managed exchange-traded funds (ETFs), a type of investment that combines the stock-picking normally associated with mutual funds with the convenience and tax benefits of ETFs.Her big, concentrated bets on “disruptive innovation”, borderline outlandish predictions on everything from shares in electric carmaker Tesla to the price of bitcoin and her savvy use of social media helped to drive assets in Ark’s overall stable of ETFs to a value of $61bn at their peak in February last year, making her the most prominent and scrutinised female investor in the world.Ark rose during a period characterised by retail trading, meme stocks and surging cryptocurrencies, with thousands of punters opening new brokerage accounts online and using Twitter and Reddit to exchange investing ideas. By freely sharing Ark’s research, Wood developed a cult following online, where to her disciples she is “Auntie Cathie” or “Cathie Bae” and where she has spawned a range of merchandise, including a T-shirt that depicts her riding a bull with the slogan “The Queen of the bull market”. Another just reads “In Cathie We Trust”.Wood has fans at the highest level of finance as well. “Regardless of performance trends, it’s clear that Cathie is disrupting the asset management industry in order to capture the imagination of a new generation of investors,” says Katie Koch, a partner at Goldman Sachs Asset Management. “She has demonstrated great respect for the retail investor by democratising access to information.” A top investor in growth companies tells me, “I admire Cathie’s spirit and willingness to put her head above the parapet.”At the moment, though, Wood is in the toughest battle of her career. The 66-year-old is fighting against market momentum and trying to halt huge losses and outflows. Assets in Ark’s overall stable of thematic exchange-traded funds have dropped to $23.1bn since its 2021 high. Its flagship Ark Disruptive Innovation ETF, stock market ticker ARKK, has more than halved in value in the same period, during which time every single one of the fund’s 36 stocks has dropped. During the same period, the Nasdaq fell about 2.4 per cent.The cover of FT Magazine, March 6/7On the face of it, ARKK boasts a stellar long-term track record: it has made an average of 38 per cent a year over the past five years, boosted by eye-watering gains of 157 per cent in 2020 as the pandemic turbocharged investor excitement about the technologies that underpin its portfolios – DNA sequencing, robotics, energy storage, artificial intelligence and the blockchain. Ark’s returns “sit in very rarefied air”, says Ben Johnson, director of global ETF research at data provider Morningstar. But most of its longer-term returns came when it had a much smaller asset base, meaning that “most investors in Ark’s funds are underwater”.Critics – and there are a lot of them – argue that Wood’s success owes more to the Federal Reserve’s loose monetary policy than to her investment research or stock-picking prowess. Her quasi-prophetic certainty about the future is detached from reality, they argue, and Ark’s performance has been inflated by pouring money into thinly traded stocks.“She’s brought a lot of attention to the concept of innovation, which is great,” says a prominent venture capitalist. “But the difficulty she has is that she believes in stories. Sometimes you have to disassociate the story from the business model and the valuation.” A top executive at a multitrillion-dollar asset manager says: “She tells a whole story that’s almost impervious to facts.” And a New York-based hedge fund manager adds: “She may be right in the long run, we just don’t know who the survivors will be in all of these industries. And the valuations are crazy.”Since the beginning of this year, sentiment has been turning against the more speculative part of the market in which Ark operates, and the Russia-Ukraine war has further roiled global markets. Waves of monetary stimulus during the pandemic helped gloss over the risks of investing in the types of hot, fast-growing and loss-making tech companies Wood favours.Now the Fed has begun scaling back support and US interest rates are likely to rise. Tech stocks, whose high prices are predicated on the potential for bumper future earnings, are seen as especially susceptible. “Every bull market has its geniuses who buy the hottest, most aggressive stocks and go up more than the market,” says a short seller who is on the opposite side of many of Wood’s trades. “But the downside of this stuff is just as spectacular as the upside. We saw this in the dotcom era.”Many investors see parallels with the late-1990s in today’s growth-over-profits mentality and perceived invincibility of tech companies. Back then, the internet boom was followed by the stock market crash of 2000, and the subsequent downturn wiped almost four-fifths off the value of the technology-heavy Nasdaq index.The bust made cautionary tales of fund managers such as Garrett Van Wagoner and Alberto Vilar, once hailed for their golden touch. “Cathie’s a boom or bust investor because she doesn’t disinvest or risk manage,” says Lisa Shalett, chief investment officer at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management and Wood’s former boss at asset manager AllianceBernstein. “This is the challenge that she has had for her entire career.”Clockwise from far right: Wood ringing the bell with her mentor economist Arthur Laffer; in conversation with Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey; Ark’s use of social media helped drive its success; Wood speaking at a conference in Brooklyn  © ARK INVEST/TWITTER; Alex Flynn/Bloomberg; ARK INVEST; ARK INVEST/YOUTUBENone of which seems to have dampened Wood’s conviction. “We’re at our best when the odds are against us,” she says. “For compliance reasons, I’ve been asked not to give numbers, but the compound annual rate of return expectation that we have during the next five years is the largest I have ever seen in my career.” When critics say she is nothing more than a product of the zeitgeist, Wood responds that her whole career has been about learning to ignore what’s current. And that though her thesis is simple – the future of investing is investing in the future – she’s spent a lifetime coming to it.On November 25, I board a plane heading for Nashville, Tennessee, for an audience with Arthur Laffer, the sprightly octogenarian economist who claims credit for President Ronald Reagan’s 1981 tax cuts. A few hours later, my taxi pulls up to a pink Spanish colonial house in a leafy suburb. Laffer answers the door himself, but I barely have a chance to shake his hand before four dogs of varying sizes come bounding towards me.Laffer is best known for popularising the Laffer Curve, which he is said to have drawn on a napkin for Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney in 1974 when they worked in the Ford administration, to illustrate his argument that lower rates would boost tax revenues. My motivation for seeking him out is his decades-long mentorship of Wood. When ARKK listed on the New York Stock Exchange in October 2014, Laffer was there with her to ring the bell. Wood was one of the people Laffer invited to accompany him to the Oval Office when Donald Trump awarded him with the Presidential Medal of Freedom three years ago. (Wood supported Trump for president and donated to his campaign.)Laffer is warm and welcoming as he ushers me past the dining room, where a long table is laid for Thanksgiving dinner, and into the kitchen. He prepares mugs of tea and plates of sushi, before leading me into the sitting room. Which is how I find myself sinking into a large leather armchair while I receive a whistle-stop tour of supply-side economics from a man who has made studying taxation and incentives his life’s work.Framed photographs of assorted Kennedys, Thatchers, Reagans and Laffers look down upon me, surrounded by the four dogs (two Cane Corsos, a Great Dane and a Peek-A-Pom – that’s a Pekingese Pomeranian), who are now asleep. Several times, we are interrupted by calls from one of Laffer’s six children and 13 grandchildren. “Happy Turkey Day to you, my darling. I’m just sitting here with a reporter from the Financial Times. Can I call you back?”About an hour in, as Laffer is praising Tennessee’s low-tax regime, which has lured companies such as AllianceBernstein, the mention of Wood’s former employer provides a natural segue. Laffer tells me about their first encounter in 1976 at the University of Southern California, when Wood was a student and he was a professor of business economics. Despite being an undergraduate, she lobbied him to let her into his graduate-level economics class until Laffer relented.Wood got off to a rough start. “At the midterm, she did very poorly,” Laffer recalls. He says it was common at the time for students to cry in his class or drop out altogether as a consequence of its difficulty. “She didn’t do that. She said, ‘So what do I have to do to get better?’ And she did get better. Cathie works harder than anyone I know. She always has.”Laffer often started his classes with a joke or some bit of relatable news to draw students in. By the time a seminar ended, the blackboard was a scrawl of equations and calculations. “We didn’t know what hit us,” Wood says. She calls Laffer’s ability to combine storytelling and hard data “a gift”.Cathie Duddy was born in Los Angeles, the eldest of four children. Her parents were Irish immigrants who had come separately to the US “with great dreams of making it” and met at a dance in New Jersey. She credits her father, a radar systems engineer, first in the Irish Army and then the United States Air Force, with encouraging an interest in technology and economics. “It was the dawn of the electronic age, as he used to tell me quite frequently, and he was passionate about that,” says Wood. “It was also his ticket to a good life.” She describes her mother as “the laughter in our lives”.‘We’re at our best when the odds are against us,’ Wood tells the FTBefore Wood graduated from USC, Laffer introduced her to Los Angeles-based asset manager Capital Group. She worked at Capital for three years as an assistant economist before moving to New York in 1980 to join asset manager Jennison Associates, where she was hired as its chief economist. She was 24. “Cathie turned out to be better and smarter than all the famous economists of that time,” says Spiros “Sig” Segalas, a former US Navy officer and Jennison’s co-founder and chief investment officer. “I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.”At the time Wood joined Jennison, the US was experiencing severe inflation and interest rates were in the double digits. “She believed very strongly in deflation…and she was right,” says Segalas, who became another mentor. He knew many tech industry pioneers, including HP’s founders Bill Hewlett and David Packard and Intel co-founder Gordon Moore.“Sig knew – talk about the dawn of the electronic age – he knew the people that made that happen,” says Wood. “He imbued me with the notion that technology solves problems and innovation is key to growth, that you can’t just look at earnings. You have to look at revenues. Revenue growth consistently over time means companies have to innovate, or else someone will steal a march from them.”Around 1982, Wood wanted to resign to work for Laffer. “Do you really want to be Art Laffer’s disciple for the rest of your career?” Segalas quipped and talked her into staying. By this point, Wood was looking to move from economics into equity research and money management. Segalas had no problem with this in theory, but he was loath to take stocks away from analysts who were already covering them. So Wood waited around for what she called “fall through the cracks” companies that didn’t fit into neat categories and that other analysts didn’t want to cover.Reuters, the database publishing company, was one example. Technology analysts felt it was a publishing company, and publishing analysts felt it was a tech company. Wood volunteered to cover it, and what was then called database publishing turned out to be the precursor to the internet. She says the experience taught her to investigate areas that others have dismissed.She worked at Jennison for almost two decades, during which she married Robert Remington Wood and they had three children. Wood speaks fondly of this period of her career, of learning to “put the pieces of the puzzle together about how the world is going to work, not how it has worked”. She also learnt the value of diversity. “Sig has given so many women in our business their big breaks,” she says. “He really believes what a lot of women’s groups are saying and studies have shown that when you add diversity, you get better investment results.”In 1995, Wood and her husband moved from New York to Connecticut. Robert, who had studied English literature and worked stints in institutional sales in the financial services industry, wanted to concentrate on his writing. “I said… if we move out to the hinterlands, to this wonderful place to raise children, one of us has to stay at home,” Wood recalls, “and I’m not going to be the one. So that’s what we did.” Two of his plays were produced off Broadway, including The Bridge in Scarsdale in 2002. The couple eventually divorced in 2003, and Robert died of cancer in 2018. Before he did, Wood welcomed him back into the house so the family could be together.In 1998, as the dotcom bubble was reaching its climax, Wood and one of her colleagues, Lulu Wang, left Jennison to set up a fund in New York called Tupelo Capital Management. By the end of March 2000, the peak of the tech bubble, Tupelo’s assets under management had reached almost $1.4bn, according to a regulatory filing. Twelve months later, Tupelo’s assets had slumped to around $200mn, according to a separate regulatory filing.In other words, Tupelo’s assets under management lost over four-fifths of their value during the dotcom crash. It’s not possible to establish how much of this was due to performance losses and how much to investors pulling their cash. Wood says, “While we disagreed about strategic moves at the end of my tenure, we parted ways with mutual respect.” Wang declined to comment.Wood dusted herself off and joined AllianceBernstein later that year as chief investment officer for thematic portfolios. Lisa Shalett, her boss at the time, recalls her “first memory of Cathie is of a whirling dervish running around in a trench coat weighed down by bags and bags of research. You would see her early in the morning or running from the office late at night to catch the train.”But Wood’s track record at AllianceBernstein was both volatile and underwhelming, according to Morningstar. Shalett says that Wood’s investing style was a “rollercoaster ride” for clients and that it found greater traction with retail investors than with the institutional market. Even so, Wood continued to display the same conviction Segalas had admired at Jennison. “She is disciplined and missionary in her approach. She’s an evangelist for tech, and it’s infectious,” says Shalett. “We all love a great story. She does her research; she believes what she believes. Sometimes when the market moves against her, she digs in more.”On a glorious August day in 2012, Wood returned home from work to an uncharacteristically quiet house. Her three children were at summer camp, and it was the first time she’d been alone that long since she moved to Connecticut in the mid-1990s. “I’m kind of stunned by the silence,” Wood recounts. “I walk into the kitchen to the counter. And I’m not happy, and I’m not sad. I’m just in that zen state.“Boom. That’s when it hit me. Why don’t you apply the technologies that have been disrupting other industries to your own? Think about it: your industry finances all of these disruptions that have changed other industries, and it hasn’t embraced them itself.” Within five minutes, the key foundations of what would become Ark’s approach came to her: adopting open source research, embracing online media, investing in innovation.Wood tells me the epiphany marked the culmination of six years of prayer. From about 2006, she had struggled to make sense of the changing financial landscape. On the advice of someone at her church, Walnut Hill Community Church, Wood had spent each morning reading from a devotional as her coffee was brewing, asking God to “show me what to do”. When it all came together, she knew “I had to start this firm, and I knew it would be successful. I knew it would be difficult too.”Wood believes she was “born with the gift of faith”, and it deepened through testing times like the stock market crashes in 2000 and 2008 and her divorce, she told an interviewer in 2020 on Jesus Calling, a podcast. When we discuss her religious practices, Wood chooses her words carefully. “Before I make a big move, I will always pray,” she says. “Prayer is a form of meditation too. It’s a very grounding experience. People who meditate deeply experience the same thing I do. And in those moments, I get answers… The holy spirit, if you want to just dwell on that, is the same thing as the Force.”Initially, Wood approached Peter Kraus, then chair and chief executive of AllianceBernstein, with her unorthodox pitch: she wanted to launch an actively managed ETF business devoted to disruptive and innovative companies. At the time, the ETF industry was dominated by passive funds that tracked an index such as the S&P 500 and was run by players like BlackRock, Vanguard Group and State Street Global Advisors. “I said no,” Kraus, who is now chair and chief executive of asset manager Aperture Investors, tells me, “because it didn’t seem like a high probability it would succeed. It was not because I didn’t like her. I don’t regret it.”Laffer also had doubts. “I talked with her at enormous length when she was going to set up Ark,” he says. “She weighed my advice and then went the other way.” Laffer worried about Wood giving up a stable job to start up in a fledgling part of the market and putting too much of her own money into Ark. “I did not want her to lose everything she had.”In January 2014, Wood founded Ark. For the first three years, she funded the business with her own money. (She rewarded Laffer with a small stake in Ark Invest, of less than 1 per cent.) Wood received an early investment of around $20mn for her first four ETFs from former hedge fund manager Bill Hwang, whom she met when they were both advisers to a religious group that ministers to young people on Wall Street. Hwang is now infamous for the implosion in March 2021 of his family office, Archegos Capital Management. A person with knowledge of the matter says Hwang admired Wood’s expertise in growth stocks, but that the investment in Ark was a show of support, rather than strategic. Hwang declined to comment for this article.For its first two years, Ark built but the clients failed to come. So Wood sold minority stakes and signed deals to help sell her funds. First to Resolute Investment Managers, an asset management platform and distributor, in 2016 and, the following year, to Japan’s Nikko Asset Management. It would take the pandemic – and a big and prescient bet on Tesla – to turn Wood into a star.In October 2020, as Ark’s performance was riding high, Resolute said it intended to exercise an option to buy a majority stake in the company. Wood pushed back. One former Ark employee tells me that, during this period, Wood was convinced she would regain control of the company even when colleagues thought it was highly unlikely. Wood turned to Todd Boehly, founder of Eldridge Industries, a holding company that makes investments, to lend Ark the funds to repurchase Resolute’s option and later reward Ark’s top employees with a share of the business.The former employee says Wood “feels very much on a journey doing God’s work. She’s moved by forces beyond the asset management game. She has confidence from her craft, but also she feels like she’s on the right side of… I don’t know what to call it. It gives her energy and strength. The God element is more a guide of her life path. God is not telling her to buy or sell shares.”Under the terms of the 2020 deal, Resolute remained Ark’s main distribution partner in the US, and Wood remained its majority shareholder. She was more personally exposed than ever. Resolute sold at what would turn out to be the top of the market. And when 2021 arrived, Ark’s performance began to unravel.The town of Bethel is named after a Hebrew word meaning “house of God”. Unlike Connecticut’s Gold Coast, where prominent financiers like hedge fund manager Ray Dalio own expensive waterfront properties overlooking the Long Island Sound, the sleepy inland streets here are lined with traditional New England timber-framed saltbox houses. Many of them are flying the Stars and Stripes. I’m here to attend a morning service at Walnut Hill, where Wood was an active member of the congregation until she moved to Florida last year.Walnut Hill is a nondenominational, evangelical megachurch, with four campuses across the state. Its purpose is “igniting a passion for Jesus in Connecticut, New England and around the world”, according to its website. In the vast entrance hall of the Bethel Campus, a sign hangs above the door reading “Go bring heaven to earth!”As I wait for the service to begin, I track down Reverend Brian Mowrey, one of Walnut Hill’s lead pastors. Wood has been coming here for more than a decade and has “been very engaged in life here”, Mowrey tells me. “She has a unique gift of being a futurist, very discerning of where things are going in our world, a great sensitivity to how God is moving and speaking.” He won’t say whether he’s an investor in Ark.We make our way to the darkened auditorium for the service, picking up our own individually packaged Eucharist on the way in. The lingering pandemic also means that the hall, which has capacity for hundreds of people, is far from full. Everything is broadcast online. The service is accompanied by a live band, and today’s theme for the homily is “Developing a Heavenly Mindset”.Afterwards, I’m standing in the church car park waiting for a friend to come and collect me, when a retired couple, John and Rita DePasquale, strike up a conversation. They have noticed me looking a bit lost. John, 76, who used to work in promotions and consumer packaging, says he came to his faith in his early thirties. “I was burning the candle at both ends, and then I found another way, a spiritual way.” He met Wood through the church but says he’s had “very little” interaction with her. He did, however, become an investor in Ark, following a recommendation from one of its clients: DePasquale’s son, Reverend Adam DePasquale, another of the lead pastors at Walnut Hill.The elder DePasquale says that, normally, his investment criteria include being a well-known company that’s a leader in its field and paying a consistent dividend. Still, Ark piqued his interest enough that he made a roughly $12,000 investment towards the end of 2020, when ARKK was trading at around $120. “The things she’s invested in made a lot of sense,” DePasquale says. “I got a sense that she sees paradigm shifts taking place – a gift.”Three months later, I check in with DePasquale to find out how he’s feeling about his investment, which is now down 40 per cent. He says he doesn’t have “any desire to bail out” or any financial need to sell right now. “I’ll wait. I have faith that it will come back, and she’ll turn it around. I think she has the right attitude towards innovation… I don’t want to buy high and sell low. That’s not a remedy to make money.”As our telephone call draws to a close, DePasquale asks if I would mind if he prayed for me. Not at all, I respond, assuming he means later on, privately. “Dear God,” he starts saying into the other end of the line, “thank you for Harriet and how she has used her skills and passion to seek wisdom… May you bless and protect her.”In February 2019, Tesla’s stock was trading at around $60. Ark, which holds a significant position in the electric carmaker, was bullish on its prospects, estimating that its share price could reach $3,000 by 2025. Wood was in a meeting room at the firm’s New York offices when she heard screams and laughter from her colleagues outside. She went out to find that Tesla chief executive Elon Musk had sent a direct Twitter message to Tasha Keeney, an Ark analyst, complimenting her on her work. Later, Musk joined Wood and Keeney on Ark’s regular FYI - For Your Innovation podcast. When I contact Musk via email about this story, he shoots back a single sentence: “Cathie and the Ark team think deeply about the future and are mostly correct. — EM”.Ark’s ability to speak in the emoji-laden, highly referential language of the meme stock generation is one example of what Ark means when it markets itself as an “untraditional investment manager”. Another is atypical hiring. The company has fewer than 50 employees, including around 20 in research and investing. Wood has surrounded herself with a team of young analysts, with backgrounds in subjects such as computer engineering or molecular biology, rather than a traditional grounding in finance. She says this is the best way to identify disruptive trends and to avoid consensus thinking. “I really believe that young people are at an advantage,” she says, because they “have one foot in the new world” and are native to certain parts of the market such as cryptocurrencies.Wood says the active management industry is dominated by short-term thinking and index trackers that avoid taking big bets and have high position overlap with their peers. Fear of the new, in other words. Ark set out to have a portfolio that has little overlap with the Nasdaq and the S&P 500. “The old world order describes [Ark] as highly speculative, highly risky and these other disparaging words,” she says. “Whereas what we are saying is, ‘No, you are in harm’s way. You are taking a risk by not doing the kind of research we’re doing.’”Closely guarded proprietary research is the norm in the mainstream asset management industry. But Ark publishes all its research and stock price targets online; it also discloses its positions and trades, which one critic says amounts to “playing poker with their cards faced up”. This practice certainly makes it easy to follow Wood. Unaffiliated websites, such as Cathiesark.com, publish the positions, trades and weight of all companies in Ark’s stable of ETFs daily. An entire ecosystem of copycat and related products have sprung up around Wood’s funds as a result.This includes products that allow investors to magnify their exposure to Ark’s ETFs – or to directly wager against them. Last November, Tuttle Capital Management unveiled the Nasdaq-listed Tuttle Short Innovation ETF (ticker: SARK), which gives investors the ability to bet against Wood’s ARKK. Since launching, SARK has grown from $5mn to $325mn in assets under management and is up 24 per cent this year. “Some people are using it as an anti-Cathie Wood bet,” says chief executive Matthew Tuttle, while others are using it as a hedge against their exposure to growth stocks at a time when interest rates and inflation are rising.Some people see flaws in Ark’s business model. Edwin Dorsey,a short seller and author of the Bear Cave newsletter, has criticised the team’s lack of experience. For example, Ark’s chief operating officer, Tom Staudt, who is in charge of its risk management, is a former account executive at a television station in Michigan. “At Ark you get out-of-the-box thinkers from non-traditional backgrounds,” says Dorsey. “But it relies a lot on young analysts who might be in over their skis.” He believes that Ark’s research is good at identifying technological trends, but he doesn’t “think it’s that rigorous when it comes to selecting individual stocks”.That can mean missing red flags that ought to have come up during due diligence. Dorsey says examples among Ark’s current or previous investments include: German payments company Wirecard, which collapsed into insolvency in June last year, following a multiyear fraud exposed by the FT; and, Vuzix, an augmented reality glasses company in which Ark owns more than 10 per cent, which has a history of consistent unprofitability, a short seller lawsuit and an informal enquiry by the US Securities and Exchange Commission.The validity of Ark’s financial models and headline-making predictions has also come into question. At least two people reckon they found erroneous judgments in the company’s publicly released valuation model for Tesla. These errors, they believe, contribute to an overestimation of what the electric carmaker could be worth. Some of Wood’s public predictions strain credulity. Notably in a 2018 video, she declared “monogenic stem cell therapy” a $2tn revenue opportunity, with “polygenic” versions of the treatment worth “however many trillions” more. Monogenic stem cell therapy is not a concept scientists recognise. Wood says Ark’s research on innovation is “the best in the financial world.”And then there’s Ark’s footprint in the marketplace. When it buys and sells positions in smaller, less frequently traded companies typical of the innovation space, Ark can have an outsized impact on their share price because these types of positions are less liquid than blue chips like Tesla and Zoom. (Across its ETFs, Ark owns stakes of more than 5 per cent in 37 companies, and owns more than 10 per cent of 18 of these companies, according to Morningstar.)“As Ark has been buying these small-cap companies, it has been pushing their share prices up,” says Dan Izzo, chief executive of GHCO, a registered market maker. “It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy on the way up.” Crucially, he notes, this works both ways. “If redemptions made Ark a forced seller of illiquid names then it could push down their share prices.” This could result in a downward spiral for Ark.For all Ark’s talk of transparency, it takes more than four months before Wood finally agrees to an interview. By this point, it’s mid-February and ARKK has halved from its peak the year before. The short sellers are being vindicated. Wood pops on to my laptop screen, instantly recognisable by her trademark horn-rimmed glasses and poker straight hair. She looks smart in a striped shirt, dark highlights framing her high cheekbones and perfect white teeth. “We are as calm and focused as you could possibly imagine,” she says. Despite the market turmoil and the mounting losses in her portfolios she sleeps “very easily” at night, “knowing that we have never been in a period of more innovation in history”.There’s one exception: the prospect of investors pulling their money from Ark’s fund at the worst possible moment. If clients do so now, Wood says they will turn “what we believe are temporary losses into permanent losses. What’s going to happen is the same thing that happened in 2008-2009. Those who got out had such seller’s remorse” because they missed the subsequent market rebound.‘The old world order describes [Ark] as highly speculative, highly risky and these other disparaging words,’ Wood says. ‘Whereas what we are saying is, “No, you are in harm’s way. You are taking a risk by not doing the kind of research we’re doing”’We take the big controversies facing Wood and Ark one at a time.Critics have suggested that the firm’s transparency makes it vulnerable to front-running. If the market can see everything Ark is doing, traders could use that information to try to get ahead of it. This is especially a risk in a downward market. If Ark, for example, had to sell positions to meet redemptions, other investors could see that and sell off first, pushing down prices even more. Wood dismisses this. “It’s very hard to front-run us,” she says, adding that if she sees the price of a stock that Ark is buying starting to move up dramatically, she halts the order. The same thing happens on the way down. “We can stop the sale if [they’re] driving a stock down because they know we’re just going to be selling, selling, selling. I can stop it if I want to.”Wood is more philosophical about the short sellers: “Well, that’s what makes a market. And if we’re right, they’re going to have to cover all of their shorts, and that’ll help with the swoosh when it happens. And I truly do believe it will.” She says she does not take the existence of SARK and others like it personally. “They’re not doing any research. That’s why that strategy is not going to work in the long run. It’ll work from time to time when we’re in risk-off periods.”Ark allows investors to redeem their money on a daily basis; the risk in a downturn such as this one is that they pull out in droves. But Ark’s asset retention has been better than expected, says Wood. She believes this is a result of Ark’s communications strategy. “We overcommunicate. We are constantly putting out research. We are tweeting to let our clients know nothing has changed from our point of view.”She believes that “this has helped our clients trust us” and keep their Ark investment. Tuttle agrees: “ARKK has not had as many outflows as you’d expect, given the returns.” But he thinks it’s because “retail investors have been conditioned to ‘buy the dip’ in growth stocks”, a strategy that has worked since 2009. “At some point there’s a level where everything starts to waver,” he adds, “I just don’t know where that is.”An important element of Wood’s vision — and one of the drivers of her seemingly boundless optimism — is that the deflationary trend of recent decades and generally low interest rates will continue: technological innovation suppresses costs, while companies whose products are being rendered obsolete will have to cut prices. “Many people think we have a permanent inflation problem,” she says. “We don’t.” If anything she believes that problems that emerged during the pandemic “are accelerating the rate at which innovation is taking place”.But Wood is fighting against the tide of central banks. Jennison’s Segalas says: “The problem right now is that interest rates are going up, and that tends to hurt valuations, particularly of growth companies with no current earnings power. A lot will depend on what happens to inflation and interest rates as to when her strategy is going to work.” He adds: “Eventually I think she’ll be right, but I don’t know how long that takes.” Eldridge’s Boehly says, “Ark has low fixed costs, very modest leverage and substantial liquidity, which allows it to ride out market volatility.”The challenge for Wood is that she may be correct in identifying the big trends in innovation but back the wrong companies. Even if her bets are right in the long term, Ark’s losses in the short term could wipe it out. To paraphrase Keynes, the stock market can remain irrational longer than many fund managers can stay solvent.Wood has clearly pondered the question of longevity. “Many people in our business… they’d be quite happy to see us disappear,” she says. Repeatedly during our conversation she refers to herself as a “lightning rod” for the industry. To these critics, Wood represents the worst aspects of a frothy market, the gate-crashing of low-information retail investors and the triumph of a good story over hard data. None of which can end soon enough. For her retail following, she represents a middle finger to all of that. Fans want to believe her stories of a better, brighter future filled with flying cars, green energy and longer, healthier lives.But as the interview draws to a close, Wood is keen to make one last, important point. When it comes to Ark’s investments, “the courage of my conviction” is not the result of any higher calling. It “comes from our research”, she says. “I just want to make that very clear.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":321,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":136500342,"gmtCreate":1622025033286,"gmtModify":1704366289915,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sweeee","listText":"Sweeee","text":"Sweeee","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/136500342","repostId":"1124807870","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1124807870","kind":"news","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":1622024544,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1124807870?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-26 18:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Xiaomi Corp's 1Q Results Beat Estimates","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1124807870","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi Corp reported first-quarter earnings.In the first quarter, Xiaomi group's revenue reached 76.9 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 54.7%; The adjusted net profit reached 6.1 billion yuan, up 163.8% year on year; Both total revenue and adjusted net profit reached a record high in a single quarter.In the first quarter, the revenue of smart phone business reached 51.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 69.8%; The gross profit margin of smart phone business","content":"<p>Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi Corp reported first-quarter earnings.</p><p>In the first quarter, Xiaomi group's revenue reached 76.9 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 54.7%; The adjusted net profit reached 6.1 billion yuan, up 163.8% year on year; Both total revenue and adjusted net profit reached a record high in a single quarter.</p><p>In the first quarter, the revenue of smart phone business reached 51.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 69.8%; The gross profit margin of smart phone business reached 12.9%, and the global shipment of smart phones reached 49.4 million.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0f06f643ff0783b170e7259dff684f3b\" tg-width=\"1187\" tg-height=\"492\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>KEY HIGHLIGHTS</b></p><p><b>1.

It had some good news on inflation and consumer spending and maybe that is why we are seeinga positive, &#34;higher-low&#34; in price for the SPY. Last time this happened, in this bear market, price moved up to a &#34;higher-high&#34; and that would imply a target now of around $412.</p><p><b>Our Buy And Sell Alerts</b></p><p>Are we predicting that price is going to $412? No. We wait for the signals to tell us what to do next. We have set our buy alert at $396 and if that is triggered, we will wait to see if it reaches $404. If price breaks above $404, we may think about $412.</p><p>If price does reach that $412 level, does it mean that we are out of the bear market? Hardly. You can see it happened last time, and the bear continued on its downward path. If that happens again, we have sell alerts set up to trigger and prompt us to play the downside, just as the buy alerts prompt us to play the upside.</p><p>When this bounce tops out, as we expect it will, then we are looking at a retest of support at $364. We have a sell alert set at $362, and if that is triggered, we expect this bear market to continue down to test $341 by October. Are we predicting $341? No. We will let the signals tell us and act accordingly.</p><p><b>Short Term vs. Long Term</b></p><p>Below is the daily chart and we only use it to see the price trends and price action on a daily basis. On a day to day basis, price is reacting to every headline and that is why it is more important to look at the overall trendlines. As you can see, the trendlines are pointed down. The blue arrow is dropping even more sharply than the red arrow. That&#39;s bearish. (We have also drawn support and resistance lines across the price chart.)</p><p><b>Little Bounce vs. Big Bounce</b></p><p>You can see price struggling to even reach these two, down trendlines. As you well know, bounces are going to struggle in a bear market like this. We could have a nice big bounce, that doesn&#39;t struggle, if, for instance, the war ended. If inflation turned down from the 9.1% level just reported, that would create a nice bounce. Likewise, when the Fed stops raising rates, there will be a big bounce that would probably end this bear market.</p><p>None of these big bounces seem to be on the horizon, so we expect this struggling, little bounce to top out and turn down to retest support at $364. Short term, the signals are telling us that price will slowly move higher, testing resistance levels and support levels in a zig-zag move higher. We will wait for the signals to tell us when this bounce is finished and the market is once more ready to go down and form a bottom. We don&#39;t see even the beginning of the formation of a bottom yet.</p><p><b>Long Term Downtrends</b></p><p>Here is the daily chart showing the downtrends. The signals show us how Demand and Supply are moving price from day to day. This daily swing in price is a bumpy ride to say the least:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/995b3b6f53f1cb442b1b95b06b6632d4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"853\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Price Testing Red Resistance Line $387 (StockCharts.com)</span></p><p><b>NOTE</b>: On the above chart, you can see that <b>CMF Money flow</b> is in the green and still climbing.

Here are some high-yield dividend stocks to sell.</li><li><b>Chevron</b>(<b><u>CVX</u></b>): Overbought oil companies Chevron and <b>Exxon</b>(<b><u>XOM</u></b>) share the top spot, and they could be silent capital killers.</li><li><b>AT&amp;T</b>(NYSE:<b><u>T</u></b>): This telecom lacks focus, so even its newly reduced dividend may not be sacrosanct.</li><li><b>Simon Properties</b>(<b><u>SPG</u></b>): This real estate company has been performing well and the pullback is healthy, but it could be at risk from the Fed monetary policy.</li><li><b>Vornado Realty</b>(NYSE:<b><u>VNO</u></b>): This REIT faces the same Fed danger that SPG does, but its foundation isn&#39;t as strong.</li><li><b>Devon Energy</b>(NYSE:<b><u>DVN</u></b>): This energy stock has a good business going, but the tailwinds are waning.</li><li><b>Williams Cos.</b>(NYSE:<b><u>WMB</u></b>): Its technicals are signaling that it might experience another leg lower.</li><li><b>Oneok</b> (<b><u>OKE</u></b>): If it loses the $48 area, $35 might be the next target.</li></ul><p>Dividends are an important part of many portfolios, but along with recognizing the top dividend stocks, you also need to be able to recognize which dividend stocks to sell at a given time.</p><p>Today we highlight a list of dangerous dividend stocks. I would consider this a call to sell them now if you have them, or avoid them until more we learn more.</p><p>This write up is not a criticism of these companies necessarily. In fact I am a fan of a few of them, but it’s a timing thing thanks to the Federal Reserve’s actions to bail the U.S. out of the pandemic lockdown. Now they are trying to unwind those actions, and we are likely to see new symptoms soon.</p><p>In other words, we should stay humble with our thesis and nimble with our investments.</p><p>Finding fixed income during the never-ending quantitative easing cycle was difficult. As the Fed has raised its rate, the yields have crept up, but not enough to stop investors from chasing dangerous dividend stocks.</p><p>Investors should be leery of stocks that rewards you too much in dividends just to lure you in. If it’s a great opportunity, they could get away with offering us less. Also, piling into a new stock for its dividend just because everyone else is opens investors to bad decisions. Chasing too late means that I would be tagging winners out and taking over a losing position. Then the stock falls by far more than the dividend gives me.</p><p>In almost all of these dangerous dividend stocks to sell, I would buy them lower. They are good companies for the most part — just not at these stock levels.</p><p><b>Chevron (CVX)</b></p><p>If you searched the internet for dangerous dividend stocks, my first two picks won’t even show up.<b>Exxon</b>(NYSE:<b><u>XOM</u></b>) and <b>Chevron</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CVX</u></b>) are excellent oil companies, and oil prices are soaring.</p><p>But at these altitudes — or worse, from their 2022 highs — they are probably dividend stocks to sell. Their fundamentals are strong, so I have no issues there. But they look very expensive here.</p><p>The higher a stock’s price goes, the lower its dividend yield becomes in percentage terms. So for XOM or CVX, what was a 9% yield is now barely over 4%. In addition, their stock prices are still so high that they could quickly lose 10% or more. This would indeed eat up whatever benefit the investors were expecting from the dividend.</p><p>If you want these for the long term, it may be best to sell here and buy in again once they come back down to Earth.</p><p><b>AT&amp;T (T)</b></p><p>I haven’t been a fan of<b>AT&amp;T</b>(NYSE:<b><u>T</u></b>) for a long while, though admittedly that has less to do with the stock’s performance than with personal experience. Still, my experience makes me doubt management has enough focus for me to trust them long term.</p><p>Intermittently, I’ve discussed upside opportunities in T stock. But they were very specific, from point A to point B on the chart. And their most recent spinoff of their media business has added so much doubt in my mind that I would just avoid it. Until we get a better understanding of the business that’s left, I cannot be certain that even the reduced dividend is safe.</p><p>My apprehension has back up from the charts. T stock hasn’t been at these levels since 1996. Beside, the reward from the dividend may be too large. The draw from it would turn into a reason to sell if investors doubt it.</p><p>Although there are no grumblings now, they could surface. They’ve already cut it this year, because of the spinoff, but we can’t be certain they won’t do it again if the remaining company doesn’t perform as expected.</p><p><b>Simon Property Group (SPG)</b></p><p><b>Simon Property Group</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SPG</u></b>) presents a dilemma for me today. In theory, it belongs on the list of dividend stocks to sell. But technically the charts are starting to look a bit interesting.</p><p>The 2022 descent from the 2021 highs has been incredibly punishing. But I somewhat expected this, because I thought the 300% pandemic rally was overdone. This slide puts it back into balance from a chart perspective.</p><p>From a trading perspective, there could be a rally brewing but nothing that has already triggered. But from an <i>investment</i> angle, there is a chance it could trap dividend chasers. The 7% it offers now is juicy, but the real-estate sector is in danger from the Fed. The central bank is out to destroy demand by raising rates. That’s not going to leave many opportunities in that sector.</p><p>I respect the company’s efforts out of the pandemic, as I bet that situation was extremely unique. I doubt that we will face such trepidation anytime soon. So from that perspective, management deserves kudos. My apprehension may be off target here, but I’d rather be safe than sorry.</p><p><b>Vornado Realty (VNO)</b></p><p>If I were nervous about the prospects of SPG, then I certainly fret <b>Vornado Realty</b>(NYSE:<b><u>VNO</u></b>). Wall Street is pretty good at pricing uncertainty, and the VNO chart is flashing caution signs. The stock is an low and can’t find footing, not even at the pandemic lows.</p><p>This is concerning behavior.</p><p>The financial statements don’t inspire confidence either. The revenue lines are still 50% below earlier levels.</p><p>Like with the SPG case, I am sympathetic because of the special test Vornado endured. Nevertheless, it’s like investors are being cautious first and nice second. With so many other sources of fixed income now, there is no need to venture into such an iffy chart.</p><p>Technically, when the bulls are struggling to hold an all-time low, they will likely lose the battle soon. I am surprised that a stock this iffy would haveseven out of 12 analyst recommend it as a buy. Their 7.4% yield certainly earns them a spot on my list of dangerous dividend stocks.</p><p><b>Devon Energy (DVN)</b></p><p>The recent mania over the upside potential of oil stocks is waning. From a technical perspective, they’ve been a short for a while especially on rallies. <b>Devon Energy</b>(NYSE:<b><u>DVN</u></b>) is not the exception, so it too made my list of dangerous dividend stocks. While there isn’t much visible threat in the financial statements, the DVN stock chart is glowing orange.</p><p>Even though it lost almost 34% of its value from the highs, there could be plenty more to come.</p><p>This is a similar scenario to CVX and XOM, where the companies are fine. My beef is with the altitude of the stock charts. New investors will likely lose more in capital than they could get back from dividend yield benefit. This is an easy fixed-income trap to avoid.</p><p>There is some support here and a bit lower, but ultimately DVN could fall below $40 per share.</p><p><b>Williams Cos. (WMB)</b></p><p>The magic numbers for <b>Williams Cos.</b>(NYSE:<b><u>WMB</u></b>) are $29 and $33 per share. The bounces this year are likely to face sellers at those levels. This translates into resistance. Conversely, if the bulls fail to hold $29 per share they could lose <i>way</i> more later. The support failure would lead WMB stock to $25, where lies the bigger support level.</p><p>The more important point is that if I am right, then rallies are opportunities to sell. Sell-the-rip themes are very detrimental to stocks. WMB is in danger of starting such a scenario in the next few weeks. The reward from the dividend is too small to matter in such a scenario.</p><p>The downside risk far outweighs the 5.4% yield. The financials are not alarming yet, but it’s a matter of upside potential versus downside risk.</p><p><b>Oneok (OKE)</b></p><p><b>Oneok</b>(NYSE:<b><u>OKE</u></b>) stock has an incredibly pivotal level near $48 per share. It’s so important that I fear the consequences of it failing — $35 would be a likely target from such a slip. Rallies into $65 would then turn it into a selling zone. Assuming that the buyers prevail with their bounce efforts, they would then face a tiresome battle.</p><p>According to Yahoo Finance, of its 16 analysts 12 of them think it’s a hold. What concerns me is that their average price target is near its all-time high. Mathematically that makes very little sense.

Here are some high-yield dividend stocks to sell.Chevron(CVX): Overbought oil companies Chevron and Exxon(XOM) share the top spot, and they could be silent capital killers.AT&T(NYSE:T): This telecom lacks focus, so even its newly reduced dividend may not be sacrosanct.Simon Properties(SPG): This real estate company has been performing well and the pullback is healthy, but it could be at risk from the Fed monetary policy.Vornado Realty(NYSE:VNO): This REIT faces the same Fed danger that SPG does, but its foundation isn't as strong.Devon Energy(NYSE:DVN): This energy stock has a good business going, but the tailwinds are waning.Williams Cos.(NYSE:WMB): Its technicals are signaling that it might experience another leg lower.Oneok (OKE): If it loses the $48 area, $35 might be the next target.Dividends are an important part of many portfolios, but along with recognizing the top dividend stocks, you also need to be able to recognize which dividend stocks to sell at a given time.Today we highlight a list of dangerous dividend stocks. I would consider this a call to sell them now if you have them, or avoid them until more we learn more.This write up is not a criticism of these companies necessarily. In fact I am a fan of a few of them, but it’s a timing thing thanks to the Federal Reserve’s actions to bail the U.S. out of the pandemic lockdown. Now they are trying to unwind those actions, and we are likely to see new symptoms soon.In other words, we should stay humble with our thesis and nimble with our investments.Finding fixed income during the never-ending quantitative easing cycle was difficult. As the Fed has raised its rate, the yields have crept up, but not enough to stop investors from chasing dangerous dividend stocks.Investors should be leery of stocks that rewards you too much in dividends just to lure you in. If it’s a great opportunity, they could get away with offering us less. Also, piling into a new stock for its dividend just because everyone else is opens investors to bad decisions. Chasing too late means that I would be tagging winners out and taking over a losing position. Then the stock falls by far more than the dividend gives me.In almost all of these dangerous dividend stocks to sell, I would buy them lower. They are good companies for the most part — just not at these stock levels.Chevron (CVX)If you searched the internet for dangerous dividend stocks, my first two picks won’t even show up.Exxon(NYSE:XOM) and Chevron(NYSE:CVX) are excellent oil companies, and oil prices are soaring.But at these altitudes — or worse, from their 2022 highs — they are probably dividend stocks to sell. Their fundamentals are strong, so I have no issues there. But they look very expensive here.The higher a stock’s price goes, the lower its dividend yield becomes in percentage terms. So for XOM or CVX, what was a 9% yield is now barely over 4%. In addition, their stock prices are still so high that they could quickly lose 10% or more. This would indeed eat up whatever benefit the investors were expecting from the dividend.If you want these for the long term, it may be best to sell here and buy in again once they come back down to Earth.AT&T (T)I haven’t been a fan ofAT&T(NYSE:T) for a long while, though admittedly that has less to do with the stock’s performance than with personal experience. Still, my experience makes me doubt management has enough focus for me to trust them long term.Intermittently, I’ve discussed upside opportunities in T stock. But they were very specific, from point A to point B on the chart. And their most recent spinoff of their media business has added so much doubt in my mind that I would just avoid it. Until we get a better understanding of the business that’s left, I cannot be certain that even the reduced dividend is safe.My apprehension has back up from the charts. T stock hasn’t been at these levels since 1996. Beside, the reward from the dividend may be too large. The draw from it would turn into a reason to sell if investors doubt it.Although there are no grumblings now, they could surface. They’ve already cut it this year, because of the spinoff, but we can’t be certain they won’t do it again if the remaining company doesn’t perform as expected.Simon Property Group (SPG)Simon Property Group(NYSE:SPG) presents a dilemma for me today. In theory, it belongs on the list of dividend stocks to sell. But technically the charts are starting to look a bit interesting.The 2022 descent from the 2021 highs has been incredibly punishing. But I somewhat expected this, because I thought the 300% pandemic rally was overdone. This slide puts it back into balance from a chart perspective.From a trading perspective, there could be a rally brewing but nothing that has already triggered. But from an investment angle, there is a chance it could trap dividend chasers. The 7% it offers now is juicy, but the real-estate sector is in danger from the Fed. The central bank is out to destroy demand by raising rates. That’s not going to leave many opportunities in that sector.I respect the company’s efforts out of the pandemic, as I bet that situation was extremely unique. I doubt that we will face such trepidation anytime soon. So from that perspective, management deserves kudos. My apprehension may be off target here, but I’d rather be safe than sorry.Vornado Realty (VNO)If I were nervous about the prospects of SPG, then I certainly fret Vornado Realty(NYSE:VNO). Wall Street is pretty good at pricing uncertainty, and the VNO chart is flashing caution signs. The stock is an low and can’t find footing, not even at the pandemic lows.This is concerning behavior.The financial statements don’t inspire confidence either. The revenue lines are still 50% below earlier levels.Like with the SPG case, I am sympathetic because of the special test Vornado endured. Nevertheless, it’s like investors are being cautious first and nice second. With so many other sources of fixed income now, there is no need to venture into such an iffy chart.Technically, when the bulls are struggling to hold an all-time low, they will likely lose the battle soon. I am surprised that a stock this iffy would haveseven out of 12 analyst recommend it as a buy. Their 7.4% yield certainly earns them a spot on my list of dangerous dividend stocks.Devon Energy (DVN)The recent mania over the upside potential of oil stocks is waning. From a technical perspective, they’ve been a short for a while especially on rallies. Devon Energy(NYSE:DVN) is not the exception, so it too made my list of dangerous dividend stocks. While there isn’t much visible threat in the financial statements, the DVN stock chart is glowing orange.Even though it lost almost 34% of its value from the highs, there could be plenty more to come.This is a similar scenario to CVX and XOM, where the companies are fine. My beef is with the altitude of the stock charts. New investors will likely lose more in capital than they could get back from dividend yield benefit. This is an easy fixed-income trap to avoid.There is some support here and a bit lower, but ultimately DVN could fall below $40 per share.Williams Cos. (WMB)The magic numbers for Williams Cos.(NYSE:WMB) are $29 and $33 per share. The bounces this year are likely to face sellers at those levels. This translates into resistance. Conversely, if the bulls fail to hold $29 per share they could lose way more later. The support failure would lead WMB stock to $25, where lies the bigger support level.The more important point is that if I am right, then rallies are opportunities to sell. Sell-the-rip themes are very detrimental to stocks. WMB is in danger of starting such a scenario in the next few weeks. The reward from the dividend is too small to matter in such a scenario.The downside risk far outweighs the 5.4% yield. The financials are not alarming yet, but it’s a matter of upside potential versus downside risk.Oneok (OKE)Oneok(NYSE:OKE) stock has an incredibly pivotal level near $48 per share. It’s so important that I fear the consequences of it failing — $35 would be a likely target from such a slip. Rallies into $65 would then turn it into a selling zone. Assuming that the buyers prevail with their bounce efforts, they would then face a tiresome battle.According to Yahoo Finance, of its 16 analysts 12 of them think it’s a hold. What concerns me is that their average price target is near its all-time high. Mathematically that makes very little sense. If the price doesn’t rally soon, the analysts would likely revise their targets lower so to avoid being wrong. This rating system is likely causing harm to investors who rely on these “expert” opinions to profit.When the facts are this obscure, I would rather avoid the whole situation. There are hundreds of other stocks to trade — and OKE right now looks like it might be one of the dividend stocks to sell.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":261,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9063138704,"gmtCreate":1651423168172,"gmtModify":1676534904232,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"A","listText":"A","text":"A","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9063138704","repostId":"1158983514","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1158983514","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1651390198,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1158983514?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-01 15:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Big Tech Is No Longer Winning as Big, but These Two Stocks Still Seem Safe","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1158983514","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"Apple and Microsoft were the only two Big Tech companies to increase earnings from last year’s pande","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a> were the only two Big Tech companies to increase earnings from last year’s pandemic boom, while <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">Amazon</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Google</a> and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> appear headed for an uneven year.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f373a8487bad61d4e6ea8d74fdfff305\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Apple and Microsoft appear to be in better positions than other Big Tech companies.

Dan Ives, a Wedbush Securities analyst, believes Microsoft is one of the core holdings to own in the current environment for some investors.</p><p>“Our unwavering view is that despite the fear in the air given the Fed-tightening backdrop and valuations falling off a cliff in tech, underlying digital transformation growth is accelerating and not decelerating into the rest of 2022 as part of this 4th Industrial Revolution,” Ives wrote, calling Microsoft’s guidance a “blowout guide.”</p><p>“The Fed raising rates and inflation issues will slow down the economy, but we view cloud spending as deflationary and ultimately on an accelerated path, with Redmond leading the way,” he added. He maintained his outperform rating on the stock.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a>, too, is in a better position, with its biggest issue seeming to be an inability to completely meet consumer demand. Analysts did ask CEO Tim Cook if he was seeing any signs of inflation and rising interest rates having an effect on demand, but he would only say that Apple is monitoring daily sales closely, and that the company’s main focus right now is on the supply side.</p><p>This year is likely to be choppy, as the costs that all these companies expected while raising prices last year actually come to fruition, likely bringing down expectations for continuing record profit margins.If you’re looking for a port in that volatile sea, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a> and Apple seem like the best bets, at least for now.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Dan Ives, a Wedbush Securities analyst, believes Microsoft is one of the core holdings to own in the current environment for some investors.“Our unwavering view is that despite the fear in the air given the Fed-tightening backdrop and valuations falling off a cliff in tech, underlying digital transformation growth is accelerating and not decelerating into the rest of 2022 as part of this 4th Industrial Revolution,” Ives wrote, calling Microsoft’s guidance a “blowout guide.”“The Fed raising rates and inflation issues will slow down the economy, but we view cloud spending as deflationary and ultimately on an accelerated path, with Redmond leading the way,” he added. He maintained his outperform rating on the stock.Apple, too, is in a better position, with its biggest issue seeming to be an inability to completely meet consumer demand. Analysts did ask CEO Tim Cook if he was seeing any signs of inflation and rising interest rates having an effect on demand, but he would only say that Apple is monitoring daily sales closely, and that the company’s main focus right now is on the supply side.This year is likely to be choppy, as the costs that all these companies expected while raising prices last year actually come to fruition, likely bringing down expectations for continuing record profit margins.If you’re looking for a port in that volatile sea, Microsoft and Apple seem like the best bets, at least for now.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":281,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9016828785,"gmtCreate":1649168711762,"gmtModify":1676534462554,"author":{"id":"3577450970953718","authorId":"3577450970953718","name":"Minhoshuting","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ab92b2914bd064ccd8620ef1d430ff","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577450970953718","authorIdStr":"3577450970953718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Up down up down","listText":"Up down up down","text":"Up down up down","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9016828785","repostId":"1154558214","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154558214","kind":"news","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":1649165886,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1154558214?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-05 21:38","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Hot Chinese ADRs Slipped in Morning Trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154558214","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Hot Chinese ADRs slipped in morning trading. Alibaba, Pinduoduo, JD.com, NetEase, Baidu, Bilibili, D","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Hot Chinese ADRs slipped in morning trading. Alibaba, Pinduoduo, JD.com, NetEase, Baidu, Bilibili, DiDi, Ke Holdings, Nio, Xpeng and Li Auto fell between 1% and 6%.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/39e9de68cf72824e5ab1b9e1035d4cf9\" tg-width=\"417\" tg-height=\"532\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8ddcbd033b8545edcd852c796da3a7f8\" tg-width=\"423\" tg-height=\"373\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8282f2b9c02775e0d455cd90b49deb2\" tg-width=\"414\" tg-height=\"295\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
