In May of 2021, one of the hottest fund managers&nbsp;Cathie Wood&nbsp;of&nbsp;Ark Invest, sold nearly 300,000 shares of AAPL from the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF). It was reported that ARK, at one point, was reducing their stake in AAPL to add to their positions in&nbsp;Coinbase (COIN) and DraftKings (DKNG). Actively managed funds such as the one's ARK oversees buy and sell equities daily and could have been using AAPL as an alternative to cash. AAPL has a mixed bag of reviews as some believe its best days are ahead of it while others believe the glory days won't be reclaimed. I think the market is granting investors an opportunity as AAPL should breakout from its sideways pattern in the 2ndhalf of 2021.</p>\n<p>The market wasn't impressed by the blowout AAPL delivered in Q1 and Q2. Instead of an upside climb supported by fundamentals, shares of AAPL have been treading water. As an AAPL bull, it's perplexing that so much attention is placed on meme stocks instead of companies such as AAPL when it's setting the stage for their best year ever. After reading the comments of the recent articles on MEME stocks, I have written, then looking back at the comment sections of some AAPL articles, I just don't understand how the mindset is shifting to outright speculation &amp; gambling rather than investing. In the first 2 quarters of the fiscal year, 2021 AAPL has generated $3.08 in EPS while the entire 2020 fiscal year delivered $3.31 in EPS. AAPL is solidifying the foundation for its best year ever in many metrics, yet the market isn't impressed. I believe there will be impressive fireworks in the 2ndhalf of 2021, and patient shareholders will be rewarded as Q3 and Q4 numbers are reported.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e86cb02096dfa9c6da05e350f274aa64\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"556\"><span>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</span></p>\n<p><b>Apple believes it's the best investment in the market and puts their money where their mouth is</b></p>\n<p>So what does AAPL do with all of the cash it generates? For starters, they spend tens of billions annually building out their businesses while investing in research and development [R&amp;D]. In&nbsp;2020, AAPL spent $169.56 billion on their cost of generating revenue. The fruits of their labor can be seen in their product offerings and how quickly their newest business segments, including services and wearables, Home, and accessories, have grown. AAPL allocated $18.75 billion in 2020 to R&amp;D, generating advancements to their beloved products. One of the reasons AAPL has a cliental that could resemble a cult-like mentality is because AAPL doesn't stop innovating. They are always at the forefront pushing the boundaries of how technology can enhance an individual's daily life.</p>\n<p>So what about the remaining cash after AAPL's business expenses are fulfilled? AAPL bets on themselves and views their stock as an investment. Since the fiscal year 2012, AAPL has repurchased $421.7 billion in its own stock. In 2021 AAPL has repurchased $43 billion in stock, indicating that senior leadership believes there is tremendous value in owning shares of AAPL. I remember the days where everyone got excited when insiders purchased shares of their company. For AAPL buying back stock is just an ordinary Monday. AAPL has repurchased more in stock over the past decade than most companies will ever see their market caps grow to. AAPL's&nbsp;board&nbsp;authorized an additional $90 billion to its existing share repurchase plan, and AAPL returned almost&nbsp;$23 billion&nbsp;in capital to shareholders in Q2 2021, it doesn't get more bullish than that.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3dbaf61374104ed17e51201af591ab7d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\"><span>(Source: Apple)</span></p>\n<p><b>Meme stocks vs. Apple and the insanity of this market</b></p>\n<p>GameStop (GME) and AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC) have decimated AAPL in share price appreciation throughout the first half of 2021. Regardless of why GME and AMC are up, the fact of the matter is GME has generated a return that exceeds 1,100%, and AMC has returned over 2,000%. Anyone who has ridden GME or AMC up, I congratulate and tip my hat to you. The market is being fueled by delusions of grandeur as AAPL is negative for the year, yet GME &amp; AMC have absolutely exploded to the upside.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c85258331453c02381346f8b6c676cec\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"499\"><span>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</span></p>\n<p>What's changed for AMC in the past several months? I can tell you, not a single thing. AMC is still a company that is in the red and barely makes money. I get it investing in companies like AMC can generate huge returns due to volatility, and I am not knocking it. If you can make money on it, by all means, don't let anyone stand in your way but be careful. When you read through&nbsp;AMC's income statement, they have never exceeded $400 million in net income. In the past decade, AMC's most profitable year was 2013, as their net income was $364.4 million. In 2019 which had zero ramifications from COVID, AMC generated $5.47 billion in revenue and couldn't even turn a profit as they lost -$149.1 million. AMC's last quarterly report had -$2.3 billion in equity on its balance sheet. The reality is AMC can issue additional shares and sell them to raise capital. This would benefit AMC by improving its balance sheet and increase its cash on hand. It seems like people don't understand that when a company issues more shares, the initial batch becomes diluted and is worthless because of the additional supply. AMC can issue shares and strengthen its balance sheet, but it won't solve its profit problems. AAPL pays more in dividends to its shareholders every quarter than the profit AMC has generated in the past decade, yet AMC is the stock generating larger returns.</p>\n<p>When investors purchase shares of AMC, they are buying a company with negative EPS. AMC's P/E ratio isn't measurable on a trailing twelve-month or a forward basis, yet investors are willing to pay for nonexistent earnings. In the comments of my&nbsp;AMC article, people said fundamentals don't matter. I understand that AMC has been a technical trade, but that doesn't change the reality that investors are paying for a company with negative earnings.Currently, the average PE Ratio for the S&amp;P is 45.02. If I use the EPS AAPL generated in the first 6 months of the fiscal year 2021 of $3.08, their PE Ratio would be 40.55. For the TTM, AAPL has generated $4.49 in EPS, which brings their PE Ratio down to 28.09. Currently, investors are paying $28.09 for every $1 in earnings AAPL generates, which is low for the tech industry.Amazon (AMZN)&nbsp;has a PE of 62.44,Microsoft (MSFT)34.93, and&nbsp;Google (GOOGL)of 32.05. Call me old-fashioned, but I like to invest in companies that turn a profit.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/79e06d9bc68454731c984429111ff056\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"661\"><span>(Source:multpl.com)</span></p>\n<p><b>Laying out the bull case for Apple and why a breakout to the upside is inevitable</b></p>\n<p>AAPL has a cult-like following that gravitates to its products and services. For the first 6 months of 2021,AAPLhas generated $201.02 billion in revenue, $82.41 billion in gross profit, and $52.39 billion in net income. In 2021 AAPL has already generated 73.23% ($201.02 billion) of 2020's total revenue, then 78.51% of 2020's gross income ($82.41 billion) and 91.25% of 2020's total net income ($52.39 billion). AAPL is on track to decimate its previous records, and unless something unfathomable occurs, 2021 will be AAPL's best year ever.</p>\n<p>So the real questions are what's causing the surge in AAPL's financials, and are they sustainable? Part of the reason is AAPL has seen an increase in its hardware sales from iPhone 12's down to iPads. An argument can be made that many people needed to upgrade their technology during the pandemic due to working from home or remote learning, but that logic can't be used for 2021. At the end of April, when&nbsp;AAPL reported Q2,their iPhone sales exceeded expectations by $7.14 billion, Mac sales by $2.2 billion, and iPad sales by $2.01 billion. These numbers were a year later, and while the iPhone 12, which was AAPL's first 5G release, was expected to create tailwinds, I believe the pandemic pushed society into a place where a greater emphasis is placed on technology.</p>\n<p>I believe AAPL will continue to see strong hardware sales, but that's only one piece of the puzzle. Services and Wearables Home and Accessories are becoming huge components of AAPL's financial metrics. In&nbsp;2018 Services&nbsp;generated $39.75 billion in revenue. In 2019 Services increased by $6.54 billion (16.46%) as they finished the year with $46.29 billion in revenue. In 2020 Services grew by $7.48 billion (16.15%) as its revenue totaled $53.77 billion. In the first 6 months of 2020, Services has already generated $32.66 billion in revenue, which is 60.75% of 2020's total revenue. Services continue to grow creating a true business segment of reoccurring revenue for AAPL. The beauty of Services is with each piece of hardware AAPL sells; there is an opportunity to generate additional revenue through Services every month.</p>\n<p>Services are becoming a home run for AAPL as it diversifies its revenue mix away from being solely constructed from physical products. At the close of the fiscal year 2020, Services had increased its annual revenue by $29.42 billion (120.83%) in just 4 years. In the first 6 months of 2021, Services has generated $32.66 billion, which is 60% of 2020's annual revenue. AAPL is on track to crack $60 billion in revenue from Services in the fiscal year 2021. Looking further out, Services could be a $100 billion revenue generator in the not-too-distant future.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5f044f79f7525038fb94ed27b6a92209\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"373\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)</span></p>\n<p>Wearables Home and Accessories continues to follow in Service's footsteps as it has become a larger revenue segment than iPad and Mac. With the inception of the Apple Watch, this category has grown from generating $11.13 billion in 2016 to $30.62 billion in 2020. Over 4 fiscal years, Wearables Home and Accessories has increased its revenue by $24.48 billion (175.06%), and its growth keeps expanding. In the first 6 months of 2021, Wearables Home and Accessories have generated $20.81 billion in revenue, which is 67.95% of 2020's total revenue. AAPL is certainly on track to generate $35 billion-plus in revenue from Wearables Home and Accessories in the fiscal year 2021. Over the next several years, AAPL is on track to generate $50 billion in annual revenue from Wearables Home and Accessories.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d7071ec652302c6cab585fef4c408d65\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"373\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)</span></p>\n<p>By the end of the Fiscal Year 2025, there is a good chance that Services can generate more than $78 billion, and Wearables Home and Accessories could generate over $44 billion in annual revenue if they both grow at a 10% rate. These two categories are on pace to exceed $100 billion in revenue combined, which could grow into $150 billion annually in the late 2020s. I am shocked investors haven't been piling into AAPL, and it's even more ludicrous that an emphasis on AAPL's numbers isn't being discussed in greater detail. What's AAPL worth down the road when Services reaches $100 billion in revenue and Wearables Home and Accessories reaches $50 billion? Over the past decade, AAPL has continued to innovate and change how technology is used, and to think their best days are behind them is a notion I refuse to believe.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/62cd231b75d9f875329f6713debe846b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"191\"><span>(Source: Apple)</span></p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>The meme stocks are causing a lot of excitement for some investors while they leave a whole other group shaking their heads. Other than a gamble, I can't understand why people want to invest in AMC when you could buy shares of AAPL on sale. AAPL should have exploded to the upside, but its 2 recent blowout quarters didn't move the needle. I believe it's going to be different once the Q3 numbers are reported. We're going to find out that once again, AAPL continues to buy shares by the billions while reporting that in 9 months, they have generated more net income than all of 2020. In the first 6 months of operations, AAPL has generated $201.02 billion in revenue and $52.39 billion in net income while giving back $53.2 billion in buybacks and dividends. Investors have been granted an opportunity to buy more AAPL before the next leg up. I am a shareholder of AAPL, and I plan on buying more before Q3 earnings.</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>Apple: Meme Stocks Or Apple, I Choose Apple Every Time</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nApple: Meme Stocks Or Apple, I Choose Apple Every Time\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-15 10:15 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434600-apple-meme-stocks-or-apple-i-choose-apple-every-time><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nApple has been a negative investment in 2021 while Meme stocks have exploded which is ridiculous.\nInvestors have been granted an opportunity to purchase Apple before its next leg up while the...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434600-apple-meme-stocks-or-apple-i-choose-apple-every-time\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434600-apple-meme-stocks-or-apple-i-choose-apple-every-time","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1167720481","content_text":"Summary\n\nApple has been a negative investment in 2021 while Meme stocks have exploded which is ridiculous.\nInvestors have been granted an opportunity to purchase Apple before its next leg up while the attention has shifted to chasing the quick buck with Meme stocks.\nApple is on pace to generate more than $300 billion in revenue for fiscal year 2021 and $75 billion in net income.\nEventually Apple will be invested back to the party and their numbers will be celebrated.\n\nNikada/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nIn 2021, Apple (AAPL) has become a negative returning investment underperforming the SPDR S&P 500 Trust ETF (SPY) by a margin greater than 15%.

In 2020, AAPL spent $169.56 billion on their cost of generating revenue. The fruits of their labor can be seen in their product offerings and how quickly their newest business segments, including services and wearables, Home, and accessories, have grown. AAPL allocated $18.75 billion in 2020 to R&D, generating advancements to their beloved products. One of the reasons AAPL has a cliental that could resemble a cult-like mentality is because AAPL doesn't stop innovating. They are always at the forefront pushing the boundaries of how technology can enhance an individual's daily life.\nSo what about the remaining cash after AAPL's business expenses are fulfilled? AAPL bets on themselves and views their stock as an investment. Since the fiscal year 2012, AAPL has repurchased $421.7 billion in its own stock. In 2021 AAPL has repurchased $43 billion in stock, indicating that senior leadership believes there is tremendous value in owning shares of AAPL. I remember the days where everyone got excited when insiders purchased shares of their company. For AAPL buying back stock is just an ordinary Monday. AAPL has repurchased more in stock over the past decade than most companies will ever see their market caps grow to. AAPL's board authorized an additional $90 billion to its existing share repurchase plan, and AAPL returned almost $23 billion in capital to shareholders in Q2 2021, it doesn't get more bullish than that.\n(Source: Apple)\nMeme stocks vs. Apple and the insanity of this market\nGameStop (GME) and AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC) have decimated AAPL in share price appreciation throughout the first half of 2021. Regardless of why GME and AMC are up, the fact of the matter is GME has generated a return that exceeds 1,100%, and AMC has returned over 2,000%. Anyone who has ridden GME or AMC up, I congratulate and tip my hat to you. The market is being fueled by delusions of grandeur as AAPL is negative for the year, yet GME & AMC have absolutely exploded to the upside.\n(Source: Seeking Alpha)\nWhat's changed for AMC in the past several months? I can tell you, not a single thing. AMC is still a company that is in the red and barely makes money. I get it investing in companies like AMC can generate huge returns due to volatility, and I am not knocking it. If you can make money on it, by all means, don't let anyone stand in your way but be careful. When you read through AMC's income statement, they have never exceeded $400 million in net income. In the past decade, AMC's most profitable year was 2013, as their net income was $364.4 million. In 2019 which had zero ramifications from COVID, AMC generated $5.47 billion in revenue and couldn't even turn a profit as they lost -$149.1 million. AMC's last quarterly report had -$2.3 billion in equity on its balance sheet. The reality is AMC can issue additional shares and sell them to raise capital. This would benefit AMC by improving its balance sheet and increase its cash on hand. It seems like people don't understand that when a company issues more shares, the initial batch becomes diluted and is worthless because of the additional supply. AMC can issue shares and strengthen its balance sheet, but it won't solve its profit problems. AAPL pays more in dividends to its shareholders every quarter than the profit AMC has generated in the past decade, yet AMC is the stock generating larger returns.\nWhen investors purchase shares of AMC, they are buying a company with negative EPS. AMC's P/E ratio isn't measurable on a trailing twelve-month or a forward basis, yet investors are willing to pay for nonexistent earnings. In the comments of my AMC article, people said fundamentals don't matter. I understand that AMC has been a technical trade, but that doesn't change the reality that investors are paying for a company with negative earnings.Currently, the average PE Ratio for the S&P is 45.02. If I use the EPS AAPL generated in the first 6 months of the fiscal year 2021 of $3.08, their PE Ratio would be 40.55. For the TTM, AAPL has generated $4.49 in EPS, which brings their PE Ratio down to 28.09. Currently, investors are paying $28.09 for every $1 in earnings AAPL generates, which is low for the tech industry.Amazon (AMZN) has a PE of 62.44,Microsoft (MSFT)34.93, and Google (GOOGL)of 32.05. Call me old-fashioned, but I like to invest in companies that turn a profit.\n(Source:multpl.com)\nLaying out the bull case for Apple and why a breakout to the upside is inevitable\nAAPL has a cult-like following that gravitates to its products and services. For the first 6 months of 2021,AAPLhas generated $201.02 billion in revenue, $82.41 billion in gross profit, and $52.39 billion in net income. In 2021 AAPL has already generated 73.23% ($201.02 billion) of 2020's total revenue, then 78.51% of 2020's gross income ($82.41 billion) and 91.25% of 2020's total net income ($52.39 billion). AAPL is on track to decimate its previous records, and unless something unfathomable occurs, 2021 will be AAPL's best year ever.\nSo the real questions are what's causing the surge in AAPL's financials, and are they sustainable? Part of the reason is AAPL has seen an increase in its hardware sales from iPhone 12's down to iPads. An argument can be made that many people needed to upgrade their technology during the pandemic due to working from home or remote learning, but that logic can't be used for 2021. At the end of April, when AAPL reported Q2,their iPhone sales exceeded expectations by $7.14 billion, Mac sales by $2.2 billion, and iPad sales by $2.01 billion. These numbers were a year later, and while the iPhone 12, which was AAPL's first 5G release, was expected to create tailwinds, I believe the pandemic pushed society into a place where a greater emphasis is placed on technology.\nI believe AAPL will continue to see strong hardware sales, but that's only one piece of the puzzle. Services and Wearables Home and Accessories are becoming huge components of AAPL's financial metrics. In 2018 Services generated $39.75 billion in revenue. In 2019 Services increased by $6.54 billion (16.46%) as they finished the year with $46.29 billion in revenue. In 2020 Services grew by $7.48 billion (16.15%) as its revenue totaled $53.77 billion. In the first 6 months of 2020, Services has already generated $32.66 billion in revenue, which is 60.75% of 2020's total revenue. Services continue to grow creating a true business segment of reoccurring revenue for AAPL. The beauty of Services is with each piece of hardware AAPL sells; there is an opportunity to generate additional revenue through Services every month.\nServices are becoming a home run for AAPL as it diversifies its revenue mix away from being solely constructed from physical products. At the close of the fiscal year 2020, Services had increased its annual revenue by $29.42 billion (120.83%) in just 4 years. In the first 6 months of 2021, Services has generated $32.66 billion, which is 60% of 2020's annual revenue. AAPL is on track to crack $60 billion in revenue from Services in the fiscal year 2021. Looking further out, Services could be a $100 billion revenue generator in the not-too-distant future.\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)\nWearables Home and Accessories continues to follow in Service's footsteps as it has become a larger revenue segment than iPad and Mac. With the inception of the Apple Watch, this category has grown from generating $11.13 billion in 2016 to $30.62 billion in 2020. Over 4 fiscal years, Wearables Home and Accessories has increased its revenue by $24.48 billion (175.06%), and its growth keeps expanding. In the first 6 months of 2021, Wearables Home and Accessories have generated $20.81 billion in revenue, which is 67.95% of 2020's total revenue. AAPL is certainly on track to generate $35 billion-plus in revenue from Wearables Home and Accessories in the fiscal year 2021. Over the next several years, AAPL is on track to generate $50 billion in annual revenue from Wearables Home and Accessories.\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)\nBy the end of the Fiscal Year 2025, there is a good chance that Services can generate more than $78 billion, and Wearables Home and Accessories could generate over $44 billion in annual revenue if they both grow at a 10% rate. These two categories are on pace to exceed $100 billion in revenue combined, which could grow into $150 billion annually in the late 2020s. I am shocked investors haven't been piling into AAPL, and it's even more ludicrous that an emphasis on AAPL's numbers isn't being discussed in greater detail. What's AAPL worth down the road when Services reaches $100 billion in revenue and Wearables Home and Accessories reaches $50 billion? Over the past decade, AAPL has continued to innovate and change how technology is used, and to think their best days are behind them is a notion I refuse to believe.\n(Source: Apple)\nConclusion\nThe meme stocks are causing a lot of excitement for some investors while they leave a whole other group shaking their heads. Other than a gamble, I can't understand why people want to invest in AMC when you could buy shares of AAPL on sale. AAPL should have exploded to the upside, but its 2 recent blowout quarters didn't move the needle. I believe it's going to be different once the Q3 numbers are reported. We're going to find out that once again, AAPL continues to buy shares by the billions while reporting that in 9 months, they have generated more net income than all of 2020. In the first 6 months of operations, AAPL has generated $201.02 billion in revenue and $52.39 billion in net income while giving back $53.2 billion in buybacks and dividends. Investors have been granted an opportunity to buy more AAPL before the next leg up. I am a shareholder of AAPL, and I plan on buying more before Q3 earnings.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":101,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187866308,"gmtCreate":1623749520604,"gmtModify":1704210381356,"author":{"id":"3577487093536782","authorId":"3577487093536782","name":"Jensenchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1836439dc7ae18c2b5f57bb1a4a596b3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice man","listText":"Nice man","text":"Nice man","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187866308","repostId":"1102470114","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102470114","pubTimestamp":1623726018,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1102470114?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-15 11:00","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore’s Gen-Z Are Borrowing Too Freely, Central Bank Worries","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102470114","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Buy Now, Pay Later services gain ground among young consumers\nRegulator’s media blitz warns of risks","content":"<ul>\n <li>Buy Now, Pay Later services gain ground among young consumers</li>\n <li>Regulator’s media blitz warns of risks from easy-credit apps</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/905a8770e091a886aa35f2af91621350\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1334\"><span>Outside a shopping mall on Orchard Road in Singapore on June 5.

Eager to capture market share, Atome, OctiFi and Rely have plans to expand across the region.\nAs they do, they will be targeting consumers like Chang Wei Yue, a 26-year-old public relations executive who recently finished paying off a S$2,000 purchase of invisible braces. “It was super hassle-free and it put me at ease knowing I didn’t have to pay the full sum right up front,” she said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":111,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187889885,"gmtCreate":1623749197847,"gmtModify":1704210362364,"author":{"id":"3577487093536782","authorId":"3577487093536782","name":"Jensenchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1836439dc7ae18c2b5f57bb1a4a596b3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice piece of news!","listText":"Nice piece of news!","text":"Nice piece of news!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187889885","repostId":"1119457448","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":52,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":327334390,"gmtCreate":1616058090510,"gmtModify":1704790326513,"author":{"id":"3577487093536782","authorId":"3577487093536782","name":"Jensenchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1836439dc7ae18c2b5f57bb1a4a596b3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I agree","listText":"I agree","text":"I agree","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/327334390","repostId":"1102384412","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102384412","pubTimestamp":1616057894,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1102384412?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-18 16:58","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"ByteDance on hiring spree in Singapore, says FT","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102384412","media":"Businesstimes","summary":"TIKTOK owner ByteDance has embarked on a hiring spree in Singapore, posting 338 jobs in the city sta","content":"<div>\n<p>TIKTOK owner ByteDance has embarked on a hiring spree in Singapore, posting 338 jobs in the city state in the past six months, Financial Times (FT) reported on Thursday.\nThe Beijing-based company is ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/technology/bytedance-on-hiring-spree-in-singapore-says-ft\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1607307803821","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Netflix</b></p>\n<p><b>Netflix</b>(NASDAQ:NFLX)needs little introduction as a widely used service and also as a stock. Over the past 19-some years, its shares have soared a total of 44,557% -- enough to turn a $1,000 investment into $446,287. That's an average annual growth rate of more than 38%! (For context, the overallstock market's average annual returnover long periods has been closer to 10%.)</p>\n<p>It's been one of the beststock marketperformers over the past decades. Netflix also serves as a terrific object lesson, showing how great companies can stumble and their stock can tank, and yet they can still recover and go on to great heights. In 2011, Netflix's CEO, Reed Hastings, saw that streaming video held much promise, so he announced plans to spin off Netflix's DVDs-by-mail business into one called \"Qwikster,\" while having Netflix focus on streaming. The plan was widely mocked or scoffed at, customers were upset at the thought of paying for two subscriptions instead of one, and the stock took a big hit. The plans were scrapped, and Netflix's business resumed growing.</p>\n<p>Today, it's a streaming behemoth, with a recent market value of $229 billion -- more valuable than<b>Nike</b>or<b>PepsiCo</b>. Inits last quarter, Netflix added more than 8 million new subscribers, bringing its total to more than 200 million. Its revenue for the quarter popped 21.5% year over year, and another bit of great news was that the company said it doesn't plan to take on debt in order to fund its operations anymore. In other words, it has plenty of cash coming in -- and expects to break even with cash flow in the coming year.</p>\n<p>Netflix's stock may look steeply priced, at a P/E ratio of 85 and a price-to-cash-flow ratio of 97, but both of those numbers are well below their five-year averages. For long-term investors, this seems a reasonable moment at which to buy shares. (If you're skeptical but you still like the company'slong-term prospects, consider buying just a small position in the company, to start.)</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69ffadbb9661b7557005ccfb309ceed9\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"470\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</p>\n<p><b>3. Square</b></p>\n<p>Finally, there's<b>Square</b>(NYSE:SQ). You may know it as the company behind those little square credit card-readers attached to the smartphones some merchants use, but thefintech&nbsp;(financial technology) company is now about much more than that, as its recent $110 billion market capitalization suggests. (That price tag makes it more valued than<b>American Express</b>&nbsp;and<b>FedEx</b>.)</p>\n<p>Square has two main businesses at the moment -- its \"Seller\" division, which helps merchants process credit card transactions via various devices, and its newer (and faster-growing)Cash Appservice, which is much like<b>PayPal's</b>&nbsp;Venmo. It has banking features, such as direct deposit, and allows users to send and receive money -- and even to invest in stocks.</p>\n<p>Square has been challenged during the pandemic, as closed stores mean less business for it. But we're on our way to putting the pandemic behind us and fully opening our economy, and Square islikely to benefitfrom that. Meanwhile,the company is growing, boosting its active Cash App user base by 50% year over year in its last quarter. It has also entered the bitcoin world, with CEO Jack Dorsey noting on a recent company earnings call that \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"</p>\n<p>Square is arguably the most steeply priced of these three portfolio contenders, with a recent P/E ratio of 550. (Its forward-looking P/E, though, based on next year's expected earnings, is&nbsp;a slightly more palatable 192.) Again, if after more research you're very bullish on Square, you might buy some shares now -- or buy a smaller position now, or just add it to your watchlist in case it pulls back.</p>\n<p>If none of these companies have your interest sufficiently piqued, there are plenty of other fast-growing businesses to investigate and in which to possibly invest.</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>3 Growth Stocks to Buy and Hold for the Next 10 Years</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Growth Stocks to Buy and Hold for the Next 10 Years\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-03-16 17:59 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/03/16/3-growth-stocks-to-buy-and-hold-for-the-next-10-ye/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Patience is one of the most valuable traits for investing.

Without it, you might invest in, say,Amazon.com(NASDAQ:AMZN)in 2010, when it's trading for around $180 per share, and then sell it for around $400 per share three years later -- more than doubling your money but losing out on a lot, as the stock went on to surpass $3,000 per share.\nThe trick to making big bucks in the stock market is generally just buying into great companies and hanging on to them for a long time, through ups and downs -- because great companies will recover from dips and go on to reach new highs. You do want to keep up with them, to make sure their prospects remain rosy, but otherwise there's little to do.\nHere are threegrowth stocksto consider for berths in your long-term portfolio. Each looks like it could reward shareholders well over the coming decade.\n1. Veeva Systems\nYou may not have heard ofVeeva Systems(NYSE:VEEV), but it's a sizable company, with a recent market value of $39 billion -- greater than that ofTwitter,Ford Motor Company,Hershey, orSouthwest Airlines. Veeva offers cloud-based technology and services that help companies bring new products and services to market while complying with industry regulations. This is especially useful in the pharmaceutical realm, where drugs in development must undergo rigorous rounds of clinical testing.\nInterestingly, Veeva recently became a \"Public Benefit Corporation,\" meaning that it's legally bound to consider the interests not only of shareholders in its decision-making and actions, but also of customers, employees, and other stakeholders. If you have any interest in socially responsible investing, this should please you.\nSo how is its business actually doing? Well, its most recent fiscal year results featured total revenue up 33% year over year and net income up 26%. Management noted that \"Veeva ended the year with 993 customers, up from 861 the year prior.\" (That's a 15% jump.) Also: \"Subscription revenue retention was 124% for the year\" -- meaning that on average, customers not only stuck around, but spent more.\nWith a recent price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 109,Veeva Systemsstock isn't cheap. But if you're planning to hold for at least 10 years, you're likely to come out OK. Or to be safer, add it to your watch list and hope for a pullback in price.\n2. Netflix\nNetflix(NASDAQ:NFLX)needs little introduction as a widely used service and also as a stock. Over the past 19-some years, its shares have soared a total of 44,557% -- enough to turn a $1,000 investment into $446,287. That's an average annual growth rate of more than 38%! (For context, the overallstock market's average annual returnover long periods has been closer to 10%.)\nIt's been one of the beststock marketperformers over the past decades. Netflix also serves as a terrific object lesson, showing how great companies can stumble and their stock can tank, and yet they can still recover and go on to great heights. In 2011, Netflix's CEO, Reed Hastings, saw that streaming video held much promise, so he announced plans to spin off Netflix's DVDs-by-mail business into one called \"Qwikster,\" while having Netflix focus on streaming. The plan was widely mocked or scoffed at, customers were upset at the thought of paying for two subscriptions instead of one, and the stock took a big hit. The plans were scrapped, and Netflix's business resumed growing.\nToday, it's a streaming behemoth, with a recent market value of $229 billion -- more valuable thanNikeorPepsiCo. Inits last quarter, Netflix added more than 8 million new subscribers, bringing its total to more than 200 million. Its revenue for the quarter popped 21.5% year over year, and another bit of great news was that the company said it doesn't plan to take on debt in order to fund its operations anymore. In other words, it has plenty of cash coming in -- and expects to break even with cash flow in the coming year.\nNetflix's stock may look steeply priced, at a P/E ratio of 85 and a price-to-cash-flow ratio of 97, but both of those numbers are well below their five-year averages. For long-term investors, this seems a reasonable moment at which to buy shares. (If you're skeptical but you still like the company'slong-term prospects, consider buying just a small position in the company, to start.)\n\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\n3. Square\nFinally, there'sSquare(NYSE:SQ). You may know it as the company behind those little square credit card-readers attached to the smartphones some merchants use, but thefintech (financial technology) company is now about much more than that, as its recent $110 billion market capitalization suggests. (That price tag makes it more valued thanAmerican Express andFedEx.)\nSquare has two main businesses at the moment -- its \"Seller\" division, which helps merchants process credit card transactions via various devices, and its newer (and faster-growing)Cash Appservice, which is much likePayPal's Venmo. It has banking features, such as direct deposit, and allows users to send and receive money -- and even to invest in stocks.\nSquare has been challenged during the pandemic, as closed stores mean less business for it. But we're on our way to putting the pandemic behind us and fully opening our economy, and Square islikely to benefitfrom that. Meanwhile,the company is growing, boosting its active Cash App user base by 50% year over year in its last quarter. It has also entered the bitcoin world, with CEO Jack Dorsey noting on a recent company earnings call that \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"\nSquare is arguably the most steeply priced of these three portfolio contenders, with a recent P/E ratio of 550.

Again, if after more research you're very bullish on Square, you might buy some shares now -- or buy a smaller position now, or just add it to your watchlist in case it pulls back.\nIf none of these companies have your interest sufficiently piqued, there are plenty of other fast-growing businesses to investigate and in which to possibly invest.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":227,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":327334390,"gmtCreate":1616058090510,"gmtModify":1704790326513,"author":{"id":"3577487093536782","authorId":"3577487093536782","name":"Jensenchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1836439dc7ae18c2b5f57bb1a4a596b3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I agree","listText":"I agree","text":"I agree","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/327334390","repostId":"1102384412","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102384412","pubTimestamp":1616057894,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1102384412?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-18 16:58","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"ByteDance on hiring spree in Singapore, says FT","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102384412","media":"Businesstimes","summary":"TIKTOK owner ByteDance has embarked on a hiring spree in Singapore, posting 338 jobs in the city sta","content":"<div>\n<p>TIKTOK owner ByteDance has embarked on a hiring spree in Singapore, posting 338 jobs in the city state in the past six months, Financial Times (FT) reported on Thursday.\nThe Beijing-based company is ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/technology/bytedance-on-hiring-spree-in-singapore-says-ft\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"lsy1607307803821","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

It has also entered the bitcoin world, with CEO Jack Dorsey noting on a recent company earnings call that \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"</p>\n<p>Square is arguably the most steeply priced of these three portfolio contenders, with a recent P/E ratio of 550. (Its forward-looking P/E, though, based on next year's expected earnings, is&nbsp;a slightly more palatable 192.) Again, if after more research you're very bullish on Square, you might buy some shares now -- or buy a smaller position now, or just add it to your watchlist in case it pulls back.</p>\n<p>If none of these companies have your interest sufficiently piqued, there are plenty of other fast-growing businesses to investigate and in which to possibly invest.</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>3 Growth Stocks to Buy and Hold for the Next 10 Years</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Growth Stocks to Buy and Hold for the Next 10 Years\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-03-16 17:59 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/03/16/3-growth-stocks-to-buy-and-hold-for-the-next-10-ye/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Patience is one of the most valuable traits for investing.

Without it, you might invest in, say,Amazon.com(NASDAQ:AMZN)in 2010, when it's trading for around $180 per share, and then sell it for around $400 per share three years later -- more than doubling your money but losing out on a lot, as the stock went on to surpass $3,000 per share.\nThe trick to making big bucks in the stock market is generally just buying into great companies and hanging on to them for a long time, through ups and downs -- because great companies will recover from dips and go on to reach new highs. You do want to keep up with them, to make sure their prospects remain rosy, but otherwise there's little to do.\nHere are threegrowth stocksto consider for berths in your long-term portfolio. Each looks like it could reward shareholders well over the coming decade.\n1. Veeva Systems\nYou may not have heard ofVeeva Systems(NYSE:VEEV), but it's a sizable company, with a recent market value of $39 billion -- greater than that ofTwitter,Ford Motor Company,Hershey, orSouthwest Airlines. Veeva offers cloud-based technology and services that help companies bring new products and services to market while complying with industry regulations. This is especially useful in the pharmaceutical realm, where drugs in development must undergo rigorous rounds of clinical testing.\nInterestingly, Veeva recently became a \"Public Benefit Corporation,\" meaning that it's legally bound to consider the interests not only of shareholders in its decision-making and actions, but also of customers, employees, and other stakeholders. If you have any interest in socially responsible investing, this should please you.\nSo how is its business actually doing? Well, its most recent fiscal year results featured total revenue up 33% year over year and net income up 26%. Management noted that \"Veeva ended the year with 993 customers, up from 861 the year prior.\" (That's a 15% jump.) Also: \"Subscription revenue retention was 124% for the year\" -- meaning that on average, customers not only stuck around, but spent more.\nWith a recent price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 109,Veeva Systemsstock isn't cheap. But if you're planning to hold for at least 10 years, you're likely to come out OK. Or to be safer, add it to your watch list and hope for a pullback in price.\n2. Netflix\nNetflix(NASDAQ:NFLX)needs little introduction as a widely used service and also as a stock. Over the past 19-some years, its shares have soared a total of 44,557% -- enough to turn a $1,000 investment into $446,287. That's an average annual growth rate of more than 38%! (For context, the overallstock market's average annual returnover long periods has been closer to 10%.)\nIt's been one of the beststock marketperformers over the past decades. Netflix also serves as a terrific object lesson, showing how great companies can stumble and their stock can tank, and yet they can still recover and go on to great heights. In 2011, Netflix's CEO, Reed Hastings, saw that streaming video held much promise, so he announced plans to spin off Netflix's DVDs-by-mail business into one called \"Qwikster,\" while having Netflix focus on streaming. The plan was widely mocked or scoffed at, customers were upset at the thought of paying for two subscriptions instead of one, and the stock took a big hit. The plans were scrapped, and Netflix's business resumed growing.\nToday, it's a streaming behemoth, with a recent market value of $229 billion -- more valuable thanNikeorPepsiCo. Inits last quarter, Netflix added more than 8 million new subscribers, bringing its total to more than 200 million. Its revenue for the quarter popped 21.5% year over year, and another bit of great news was that the company said it doesn't plan to take on debt in order to fund its operations anymore. In other words, it has plenty of cash coming in -- and expects to break even with cash flow in the coming year.\nNetflix's stock may look steeply priced, at a P/E ratio of 85 and a price-to-cash-flow ratio of 97, but both of those numbers are well below their five-year averages. For long-term investors, this seems a reasonable moment at which to buy shares. (If you're skeptical but you still like the company'slong-term prospects, consider buying just a small position in the company, to start.)\n\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\n3. Square\nFinally, there'sSquare(NYSE:SQ). You may know it as the company behind those little square credit card-readers attached to the smartphones some merchants use, but thefintech (financial technology) company is now about much more than that, as its recent $110 billion market capitalization suggests. (That price tag makes it more valued thanAmerican Express andFedEx.)\nSquare has two main businesses at the moment -- its \"Seller\" division, which helps merchants process credit card transactions via various devices, and its newer (and faster-growing)Cash Appservice, which is much likePayPal's Venmo. It has banking features, such as direct deposit, and allows users to send and receive money -- and even to invest in stocks.\nSquare has been challenged during the pandemic, as closed stores mean less business for it. But we're on our way to putting the pandemic behind us and fully opening our economy, and Square islikely to benefitfrom that. Meanwhile,the company is growing, boosting its active Cash App user base by 50% year over year in its last quarter. It has also entered the bitcoin world, with CEO Jack Dorsey noting on a recent company earnings call that \"We believe it has the highest probability of empowering more people in the economy in a fair way.\"\nSquare is arguably the most steeply priced of these three portfolio contenders, with a recent P/E ratio of 550. (Its forward-looking P/E, though, based on next year's expected earnings, is a slightly more palatable 192.) Again, if after more research you're very bullish on Square, you might buy some shares now -- or buy a smaller position now, or just add it to your watchlist in case it pulls back.\nIf none of these companies have your interest sufficiently piqued, there are plenty of other fast-growing businesses to investigate and in which to possibly invest.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":131,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187864865,"gmtCreate":1623749605657,"gmtModify":1704210385931,"author":{"id":"3577487093536782","authorId":"3577487093536782","name":"Jensenchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1836439dc7ae18c2b5f57bb1a4a596b3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oh yes thats good","listText":"Oh yes thats good","text":"Oh yes thats good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187864865","repostId":"1167720481","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1167720481","pubTimestamp":1623723356,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1167720481?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-15 10:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple: Meme Stocks Or Apple, I Choose Apple Every Time","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1167720481","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Apple has been a negative investment in 2021 while Meme stocks have exploded which is ridiculous.Investors have been granted an opportunity to purchase Apple before its next leg up while the attention has shifted to chasing the quick buck with Meme stocks.Apple is on pace to generate more than $300 billion in revenue for fiscal year 2021 and $75 billion in net income.Eventually Apple will be invested back to the party and their numbers will be celebrated.So what does AAPL do with all of the cash","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Apple has been a negative investment in 2021 while Meme stocks have exploded which is ridiculous.</li>\n <li>Investors have been granted an opportunity to purchase Apple before its next leg up while the attention has shifted to chasing the quick buck with Meme stocks.</li>\n <li>Apple is on pace to generate more than $300 billion in revenue for fiscal year 2021 and $75 billion in net income.</li>\n <li>Eventually Apple will be invested back to the party and their numbers will be celebrated.</li>\n</ul>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/54c3b80a3353ef82f618688f13f74658\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\"><span>Nikada/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p>In 2021, Apple (AAPL) has become a negative returning investment underperforming the SPDR S&amp;P 500 Trust ETF (SPY) by a margin greater than 15%. In May of 2021, one of the hottest fund managers&nbsp;Cathie Wood&nbsp;of&nbsp;Ark Invest, sold nearly 300,000 shares of AAPL from the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF). It was reported that ARK, at one point, was reducing their stake in AAPL to add to their positions in&nbsp;Coinbase (COIN) and DraftKings (DKNG). Actively managed funds such as the one's ARK oversees buy and sell equities daily and could have been using AAPL as an alternative to cash. AAPL has a mixed bag of reviews as some believe its best days are ahead of it while others believe the glory days won't be reclaimed. I think the market is granting investors an opportunity as AAPL should breakout from its sideways pattern in the 2ndhalf of 2021.</p>\n<p>The market wasn't impressed by the blowout AAPL delivered in Q1 and Q2. Instead of an upside climb supported by fundamentals, shares of AAPL have been treading water. As an AAPL bull, it's perplexing that so much attention is placed on meme stocks instead of companies such as AAPL when it's setting the stage for their best year ever. After reading the comments of the recent articles on MEME stocks, I have written, then looking back at the comment sections of some AAPL articles, I just don't understand how the mindset is shifting to outright speculation &amp; gambling rather than investing. In the first 2 quarters of the fiscal year, 2021 AAPL has generated $3.08 in EPS while the entire 2020 fiscal year delivered $3.31 in EPS. AAPL is solidifying the foundation for its best year ever in many metrics, yet the market isn't impressed. I believe there will be impressive fireworks in the 2ndhalf of 2021, and patient shareholders will be rewarded as Q3 and Q4 numbers are reported.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e86cb02096dfa9c6da05e350f274aa64\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"556\"><span>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</span></p>\n<p><b>Apple believes it's the best investment in the market and puts their money where their mouth is</b></p>\n<p>So what does AAPL do with all of the cash it generates? For starters, they spend tens of billions annually building out their businesses while investing in research and development [R&amp;D]. In&nbsp;2020, AAPL spent $169.56 billion on their cost of generating revenue. The fruits of their labor can be seen in their product offerings and how quickly their newest business segments, including services and wearables, Home, and accessories, have grown. AAPL allocated $18.75 billion in 2020 to R&amp;D, generating advancements to their beloved products. One of the reasons AAPL has a cliental that could resemble a cult-like mentality is because AAPL doesn't stop innovating. They are always at the forefront pushing the boundaries of how technology can enhance an individual's daily life.</p>\n<p>So what about the remaining cash after AAPL's business expenses are fulfilled? AAPL bets on themselves and views their stock as an investment. Since the fiscal year 2012, AAPL has repurchased $421.7 billion in its own stock. In 2021 AAPL has repurchased $43 billion in stock, indicating that senior leadership believes there is tremendous value in owning shares of AAPL. I remember the days where everyone got excited when insiders purchased shares of their company. For AAPL buying back stock is just an ordinary Monday. AAPL has repurchased more in stock over the past decade than most companies will ever see their market caps grow to. AAPL's&nbsp;board&nbsp;authorized an additional $90 billion to its existing share repurchase plan, and AAPL returned almost&nbsp;$23 billion&nbsp;in capital to shareholders in Q2 2021, it doesn't get more bullish than that.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3dbaf61374104ed17e51201af591ab7d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\"><span>(Source: Apple)</span></p>\n<p><b>Meme stocks vs. Apple and the insanity of this market</b></p>\n<p>GameStop (GME) and AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC) have decimated AAPL in share price appreciation throughout the first half of 2021. Regardless of why GME and AMC are up, the fact of the matter is GME has generated a return that exceeds 1,100%, and AMC has returned over 2,000%. Anyone who has ridden GME or AMC up, I congratulate and tip my hat to you. The market is being fueled by delusions of grandeur as AAPL is negative for the year, yet GME &amp; AMC have absolutely exploded to the upside.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c85258331453c02381346f8b6c676cec\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"499\"><span>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</span></p>\n<p>What's changed for AMC in the past several months? I can tell you, not a single thing. AMC is still a company that is in the red and barely makes money. I get it investing in companies like AMC can generate huge returns due to volatility, and I am not knocking it. If you can make money on it, by all means, don't let anyone stand in your way but be careful. When you read through&nbsp;AMC's income statement, they have never exceeded $400 million in net income. In the past decade, AMC's most profitable year was 2013, as their net income was $364.4 million. In 2019 which had zero ramifications from COVID, AMC generated $5.47 billion in revenue and couldn't even turn a profit as they lost -$149.1 million. AMC's last quarterly report had -$2.3 billion in equity on its balance sheet. The reality is AMC can issue additional shares and sell them to raise capital. This would benefit AMC by improving its balance sheet and increase its cash on hand. It seems like people don't understand that when a company issues more shares, the initial batch becomes diluted and is worthless because of the additional supply. AMC can issue shares and strengthen its balance sheet, but it won't solve its profit problems. AAPL pays more in dividends to its shareholders every quarter than the profit AMC has generated in the past decade, yet AMC is the stock generating larger returns.</p>\n<p>When investors purchase shares of AMC, they are buying a company with negative EPS. AMC's P/E ratio isn't measurable on a trailing twelve-month or a forward basis, yet investors are willing to pay for nonexistent earnings. In the comments of my&nbsp;AMC article, people said fundamentals don't matter. I understand that AMC has been a technical trade, but that doesn't change the reality that investors are paying for a company with negative earnings.Currently, the average PE Ratio for the S&amp;P is 45.02. If I use the EPS AAPL generated in the first 6 months of the fiscal year 2021 of $3.08, their PE Ratio would be 40.55. For the TTM, AAPL has generated $4.49 in EPS, which brings their PE Ratio down to 28.09. Currently, investors are paying $28.09 for every $1 in earnings AAPL generates, which is low for the tech industry.Amazon (AMZN)&nbsp;has a PE of 62.44,Microsoft (MSFT)34.93, and&nbsp;Google (GOOGL)of 32.05. Call me old-fashioned, but I like to invest in companies that turn a profit.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/79e06d9bc68454731c984429111ff056\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"661\"><span>(Source:multpl.com)</span></p>\n<p><b>Laying out the bull case for Apple and why a breakout to the upside is inevitable</b></p>\n<p>AAPL has a cult-like following that gravitates to its products and services. For the first 6 months of 2021,AAPLhas generated $201.02 billion in revenue, $82.41 billion in gross profit, and $52.39 billion in net income. In 2021 AAPL has already generated 73.23% ($201.02 billion) of 2020's total revenue, then 78.51% of 2020's gross income ($82.41 billion) and 91.25% of 2020's total net income ($52.39 billion). AAPL is on track to decimate its previous records, and unless something unfathomable occurs, 2021 will be AAPL's best year ever.</p>\n<p>So the real questions are what's causing the surge in AAPL's financials, and are they sustainable? Part of the reason is AAPL has seen an increase in its hardware sales from iPhone 12's down to iPads. An argument can be made that many people needed to upgrade their technology during the pandemic due to working from home or remote learning, but that logic can't be used for 2021. At the end of April, when&nbsp;AAPL reported Q2,their iPhone sales exceeded expectations by $7.14 billion, Mac sales by $2.2 billion, and iPad sales by $2.01 billion. These numbers were a year later, and while the iPhone 12, which was AAPL's first 5G release, was expected to create tailwinds, I believe the pandemic pushed society into a place where a greater emphasis is placed on technology.</p>\n<p>I believe AAPL will continue to see strong hardware sales, but that's only one piece of the puzzle. Services and Wearables Home and Accessories are becoming huge components of AAPL's financial metrics. In&nbsp;2018 Services&nbsp;generated $39.75 billion in revenue. In 2019 Services increased by $6.54 billion (16.46%) as they finished the year with $46.29 billion in revenue. In 2020 Services grew by $7.48 billion (16.15%) as its revenue totaled $53.77 billion. In the first 6 months of 2020, Services has already generated $32.66 billion in revenue, which is 60.75% of 2020's total revenue. Services continue to grow creating a true business segment of reoccurring revenue for AAPL. The beauty of Services is with each piece of hardware AAPL sells; there is an opportunity to generate additional revenue through Services every month.</p>\n<p>Services are becoming a home run for AAPL as it diversifies its revenue mix away from being solely constructed from physical products. At the close of the fiscal year 2020, Services had increased its annual revenue by $29.42 billion (120.83%) in just 4 years. In the first 6 months of 2021, Services has generated $32.66 billion, which is 60% of 2020's annual revenue. AAPL is on track to crack $60 billion in revenue from Services in the fiscal year 2021. Looking further out, Services could be a $100 billion revenue generator in the not-too-distant future.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5f044f79f7525038fb94ed27b6a92209\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"373\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)</span></p>\n<p>Wearables Home and Accessories continues to follow in Service's footsteps as it has become a larger revenue segment than iPad and Mac. With the inception of the Apple Watch, this category has grown from generating $11.13 billion in 2016 to $30.62 billion in 2020. Over 4 fiscal years, Wearables Home and Accessories has increased its revenue by $24.48 billion (175.06%), and its growth keeps expanding. In the first 6 months of 2021, Wearables Home and Accessories have generated $20.81 billion in revenue, which is 67.95% of 2020's total revenue. AAPL is certainly on track to generate $35 billion-plus in revenue from Wearables Home and Accessories in the fiscal year 2021. Over the next several years, AAPL is on track to generate $50 billion in annual revenue from Wearables Home and Accessories.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d7071ec652302c6cab585fef4c408d65\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"373\"><span>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)</span></p>\n<p>By the end of the Fiscal Year 2025, there is a good chance that Services can generate more than $78 billion, and Wearables Home and Accessories could generate over $44 billion in annual revenue if they both grow at a 10% rate. These two categories are on pace to exceed $100 billion in revenue combined, which could grow into $150 billion annually in the late 2020s. I am shocked investors haven't been piling into AAPL, and it's even more ludicrous that an emphasis on AAPL's numbers isn't being discussed in greater detail. What's AAPL worth down the road when Services reaches $100 billion in revenue and Wearables Home and Accessories reaches $50 billion? Over the past decade, AAPL has continued to innovate and change how technology is used, and to think their best days are behind them is a notion I refuse to believe.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/62cd231b75d9f875329f6713debe846b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"191\"><span>(Source: Apple)</span></p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>The meme stocks are causing a lot of excitement for some investors while they leave a whole other group shaking their heads. Other than a gamble, I can't understand why people want to invest in AMC when you could buy shares of AAPL on sale. AAPL should have exploded to the upside, but its 2 recent blowout quarters didn't move the needle. I believe it's going to be different once the Q3 numbers are reported. We're going to find out that once again, AAPL continues to buy shares by the billions while reporting that in 9 months, they have generated more net income than all of 2020. In the first 6 months of operations, AAPL has generated $201.02 billion in revenue and $52.39 billion in net income while giving back $53.2 billion in buybacks and dividends. Investors have been granted an opportunity to buy more AAPL before the next leg up. I am a shareholder of AAPL, and I plan on buying more before Q3 earnings.</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>Apple: Meme Stocks Or Apple, I Choose Apple Every Time</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nApple: Meme Stocks Or Apple, I Choose Apple Every Time\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-15 10:15 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434600-apple-meme-stocks-or-apple-i-choose-apple-every-time><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nApple has been a negative investment in 2021 while Meme stocks have exploded which is ridiculous.\nInvestors have been granted an opportunity to purchase Apple before its next leg up while the...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434600-apple-meme-stocks-or-apple-i-choose-apple-every-time\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4434600-apple-meme-stocks-or-apple-i-choose-apple-every-time","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1167720481","content_text":"Summary\n\nApple has been a negative investment in 2021 while Meme stocks have exploded which is ridiculous.\nInvestors have been granted an opportunity to purchase Apple before its next leg up while the attention has shifted to chasing the quick buck with Meme stocks.\nApple is on pace to generate more than $300 billion in revenue for fiscal year 2021 and $75 billion in net income.\nEventually Apple will be invested back to the party and their numbers will be celebrated.\n\nNikada/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images\nIn 2021, Apple (AAPL) has become a negative returning investment underperforming the SPDR S&P 500 Trust ETF (SPY) by a margin greater than 15%. In May of 2021, one of the hottest fund managers Cathie Wood of Ark Invest, sold nearly 300,000 shares of AAPL from the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF). It was reported that ARK, at one point, was reducing their stake in AAPL to add to their positions in Coinbase (COIN) and DraftKings (DKNG). Actively managed funds such as the one's ARK oversees buy and sell equities daily and could have been using AAPL as an alternative to cash. AAPL has a mixed bag of reviews as some believe its best days are ahead of it while others believe the glory days won't be reclaimed. I think the market is granting investors an opportunity as AAPL should breakout from its sideways pattern in the 2ndhalf of 2021.\nThe market wasn't impressed by the blowout AAPL delivered in Q1 and Q2. Instead of an upside climb supported by fundamentals, shares of AAPL have been treading water. As an AAPL bull, it's perplexing that so much attention is placed on meme stocks instead of companies such as AAPL when it's setting the stage for their best year ever. After reading the comments of the recent articles on MEME stocks, I have written, then looking back at the comment sections of some AAPL articles, I just don't understand how the mindset is shifting to outright speculation & gambling rather than investing. In the first 2 quarters of the fiscal year, 2021 AAPL has generated $3.08 in EPS while the entire 2020 fiscal year delivered $3.31 in EPS. AAPL is solidifying the foundation for its best year ever in many metrics, yet the market isn't impressed. I believe there will be impressive fireworks in the 2ndhalf of 2021, and patient shareholders will be rewarded as Q3 and Q4 numbers are reported.\n(Source: Seeking Alpha)\nApple believes it's the best investment in the market and puts their money where their mouth is\nSo what does AAPL do with all of the cash it generates? For starters, they spend tens of billions annually building out their businesses while investing in research and development [R&D]. In 2020, AAPL spent $169.56 billion on their cost of generating revenue. The fruits of their labor can be seen in their product offerings and how quickly their newest business segments, including services and wearables, Home, and accessories, have grown. AAPL allocated $18.75 billion in 2020 to R&D, generating advancements to their beloved products. One of the reasons AAPL has a cliental that could resemble a cult-like mentality is because AAPL doesn't stop innovating. They are always at the forefront pushing the boundaries of how technology can enhance an individual's daily life.\nSo what about the remaining cash after AAPL's business expenses are fulfilled? AAPL bets on themselves and views their stock as an investment. Since the fiscal year 2012, AAPL has repurchased $421.7 billion in its own stock. In 2021 AAPL has repurchased $43 billion in stock, indicating that senior leadership believes there is tremendous value in owning shares of AAPL. I remember the days where everyone got excited when insiders purchased shares of their company. For AAPL buying back stock is just an ordinary Monday. AAPL has repurchased more in stock over the past decade than most companies will ever see their market caps grow to. AAPL's board authorized an additional $90 billion to its existing share repurchase plan, and AAPL returned almost $23 billion in capital to shareholders in Q2 2021, it doesn't get more bullish than that.\n(Source: Apple)\nMeme stocks vs. Apple and the insanity of this market\nGameStop (GME) and AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC) have decimated AAPL in share price appreciation throughout the first half of 2021. Regardless of why GME and AMC are up, the fact of the matter is GME has generated a return that exceeds 1,100%, and AMC has returned over 2,000%. Anyone who has ridden GME or AMC up, I congratulate and tip my hat to you. The market is being fueled by delusions of grandeur as AAPL is negative for the year, yet GME & AMC have absolutely exploded to the upside.\n(Source: Seeking Alpha)\nWhat's changed for AMC in the past several months? I can tell you, not a single thing. AMC is still a company that is in the red and barely makes money. I get it investing in companies like AMC can generate huge returns due to volatility, and I am not knocking it. If you can make money on it, by all means, don't let anyone stand in your way but be careful. When you read through AMC's income statement, they have never exceeded $400 million in net income. In the past decade, AMC's most profitable year was 2013, as their net income was $364.4 million. In 2019 which had zero ramifications from COVID, AMC generated $5.47 billion in revenue and couldn't even turn a profit as they lost -$149.1 million. AMC's last quarterly report had -$2.3 billion in equity on its balance sheet. The reality is AMC can issue additional shares and sell them to raise capital. This would benefit AMC by improving its balance sheet and increase its cash on hand. It seems like people don't understand that when a company issues more shares, the initial batch becomes diluted and is worthless because of the additional supply. AMC can issue shares and strengthen its balance sheet, but it won't solve its profit problems. AAPL pays more in dividends to its shareholders every quarter than the profit AMC has generated in the past decade, yet AMC is the stock generating larger returns.\nWhen investors purchase shares of AMC, they are buying a company with negative EPS. AMC's P/E ratio isn't measurable on a trailing twelve-month or a forward basis, yet investors are willing to pay for nonexistent earnings. In the comments of my AMC article, people said fundamentals don't matter. I understand that AMC has been a technical trade, but that doesn't change the reality that investors are paying for a company with negative earnings.Currently, the average PE Ratio for the S&P is 45.02. If I use the EPS AAPL generated in the first 6 months of the fiscal year 2021 of $3.08, their PE Ratio would be 40.55. For the TTM, AAPL has generated $4.49 in EPS, which brings their PE Ratio down to 28.09. Currently, investors are paying $28.09 for every $1 in earnings AAPL generates, which is low for the tech industry.Amazon (AMZN) has a PE of 62.44,Microsoft (MSFT)34.93, and Google (GOOGL)of 32.05. Call me old-fashioned, but I like to invest in companies that turn a profit.\n(Source:multpl.com)\nLaying out the bull case for Apple and why a breakout to the upside is inevitable\nAAPL has a cult-like following that gravitates to its products and services. For the first 6 months of 2021,AAPLhas generated $201.02 billion in revenue, $82.41 billion in gross profit, and $52.39 billion in net income. In 2021 AAPL has already generated 73.23% ($201.02 billion) of 2020's total revenue, then 78.51% of 2020's gross income ($82.41 billion) and 91.25% of 2020's total net income ($52.39 billion). AAPL is on track to decimate its previous records, and unless something unfathomable occurs, 2021 will be AAPL's best year ever.\nSo the real questions are what's causing the surge in AAPL's financials, and are they sustainable? Part of the reason is AAPL has seen an increase in its hardware sales from iPhone 12's down to iPads. An argument can be made that many people needed to upgrade their technology during the pandemic due to working from home or remote learning, but that logic can't be used for 2021. At the end of April, when AAPL reported Q2,their iPhone sales exceeded expectations by $7.14 billion, Mac sales by $2.2 billion, and iPad sales by $2.01 billion. These numbers were a year later, and while the iPhone 12, which was AAPL's first 5G release, was expected to create tailwinds, I believe the pandemic pushed society into a place where a greater emphasis is placed on technology.\nI believe AAPL will continue to see strong hardware sales, but that's only one piece of the puzzle. Services and Wearables Home and Accessories are becoming huge components of AAPL's financial metrics. In 2018 Services generated $39.75 billion in revenue. In 2019 Services increased by $6.54 billion (16.46%) as they finished the year with $46.29 billion in revenue. In 2020 Services grew by $7.48 billion (16.15%) as its revenue totaled $53.77 billion. In the first 6 months of 2020, Services has already generated $32.66 billion in revenue, which is 60.75% of 2020's total revenue. Services continue to grow creating a true business segment of reoccurring revenue for AAPL. The beauty of Services is with each piece of hardware AAPL sells; there is an opportunity to generate additional revenue through Services every month.\nServices are becoming a home run for AAPL as it diversifies its revenue mix away from being solely constructed from physical products. At the close of the fiscal year 2020, Services had increased its annual revenue by $29.42 billion (120.83%) in just 4 years. In the first 6 months of 2021, Services has generated $32.66 billion, which is 60% of 2020's annual revenue. AAPL is on track to crack $60 billion in revenue from Services in the fiscal year 2021. Looking further out, Services could be a $100 billion revenue generator in the not-too-distant future.\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)\nWearables Home and Accessories continues to follow in Service's footsteps as it has become a larger revenue segment than iPad and Mac. With the inception of the Apple Watch, this category has grown from generating $11.13 billion in 2016 to $30.62 billion in 2020. Over 4 fiscal years, Wearables Home and Accessories has increased its revenue by $24.48 billion (175.06%), and its growth keeps expanding. In the first 6 months of 2021, Wearables Home and Accessories have generated $20.81 billion in revenue, which is 67.95% of 2020's total revenue. AAPL is certainly on track to generate $35 billion-plus in revenue from Wearables Home and Accessories in the fiscal year 2021. Over the next several years, AAPL is on track to generate $50 billion in annual revenue from Wearables Home and Accessories.\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)\nBy the end of the Fiscal Year 2025, there is a good chance that Services can generate more than $78 billion, and Wearables Home and Accessories could generate over $44 billion in annual revenue if they both grow at a 10% rate. These two categories are on pace to exceed $100 billion in revenue combined, which could grow into $150 billion annually in the late 2020s. I am shocked investors haven't been piling into AAPL, and it's even more ludicrous that an emphasis on AAPL's numbers isn't being discussed in greater detail. What's AAPL worth down the road when Services reaches $100 billion in revenue and Wearables Home and Accessories reaches $50 billion? Over the past decade, AAPL has continued to innovate and change how technology is used, and to think their best days are behind them is a notion I refuse to believe.\n(Source: Apple)\nConclusion\nThe meme stocks are causing a lot of excitement for some investors while they leave a whole other group shaking their heads. Other than a gamble, I can't understand why people want to invest in AMC when you could buy shares of AAPL on sale. AAPL should have exploded to the upside, but its 2 recent blowout quarters didn't move the needle. I believe it's going to be different once the Q3 numbers are reported. We're going to find out that once again, AAPL continues to buy shares by the billions while reporting that in 9 months, they have generated more net income than all of 2020. In the first 6 months of operations, AAPL has generated $201.02 billion in revenue and $52.39 billion in net income while giving back $53.2 billion in buybacks and dividends. Investors have been granted an opportunity to buy more AAPL before the next leg up. I am a shareholder of AAPL, and I plan on buying more before Q3 earnings.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":101,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187866308,"gmtCreate":1623749520604,"gmtModify":1704210381356,"author":{"id":"3577487093536782","authorId":"3577487093536782","name":"Jensenchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1836439dc7ae18c2b5f57bb1a4a596b3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice man","listText":"Nice man","text":"Nice man","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187866308","repostId":"1102470114","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":111,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":187889885,"gmtCreate":1623749197847,"gmtModify":1704210362364,"author":{"id":"3577487093536782","authorId":"3577487093536782","name":"Jensenchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1836439dc7ae18c2b5f57bb1a4a596b3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice piece of news!","listText":"Nice piece of news!","text":"Nice piece of news!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/187889885","repostId":"1119457448","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":52,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":325463826,"gmtCreate":1615914784765,"gmtModify":1704788478542,"author":{"id":"3577487093536782","authorId":"3577487093536782","name":"Jensenchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1836439dc7ae18c2b5f57bb1a4a596b3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Oof","listText":"Oof","text":"Oof","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/325463826","repostId":"1115937529","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1115937529","pubTimestamp":1615909804,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1115937529?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-16 23:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"After winning with ‘disruptive’ stocks, this five-star manager has a few more ideas to share","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1115937529","media":"marketwatch","summary":"Pacira BioSciences, Planet Fitness and Lyft are among the next hottest stocks, says Macquarie’s Alex","content":"<blockquote>Pacira BioSciences, Planet Fitness and Lyft are among the next hottest stocks, says Macquarie’s Alexander Ely.</blockquote><p>The world is about to step out of a dark hole and into the bright sunshine, so investors should drop the anxiety already.</p><p>That is the message from Alexander Ely, chief investment officer of U.S. equity growth at Macquarie Investment Management. “The economy is reopening, it’s doing great. We’re coming out of a pandemic. It’s going to be awesome,” he told MarketWatch in a recent interview.</p><p>It appears some investors are thinking along the same lines, as value and cyclical stocks take off in anticipation of a recovery from the deadly COVID-19 pandemic that has rocked the world for a year. And smaller companies, cogs in the wheels of the economy, have also been rising with the Russell 2000RUT,-1.04%up 18% so far this year.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0c5bdd22708619636702dcbaabe90f52\" tg-width=\"654\" tg-height=\"342\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>“Smaller companies and mid caps, to an extent as well, are more levered to an expansion in the markets. And that’s why we believe smaller cap companies will do better,” said Ely. He focuses on what he calls “disruptive” stocks of companies that offer a “better, cheaper, faster way of doing things.”</p><p>And Ely appears to have a knack for picking those stocks. Ad-tech group Trade DeskTTD,5.29%and mobile-payments processor SquareSQ,-0.99%,two companieshe highlighted last yearto MarketWatch, returned over 200% each last year. His five-star rated fund, Delaware Smid [small and mid] Cap GrowthDFCIX,+1.09%has had average annual returns of 34% over the past three years and 28% for five years. The fund has been in the top performance quartile of its “midcap growth” peer group for 15 years,according to Morningstar.</p><p>Headed into the pandemic, Ely said it was best to own companies involving crowds or a recovery. “And now that we’re coming back out of it, there’s a couple of areas that we think have particular strengths,” he said.</p><p>His first pick is Pacira BioSciencesPCRX,-0.47%,a maker of non-opioid local anesthesia that plays into a dramatic rebound in medical procedures he sees coming. Knee replacements and similar procedures had been increasing 2% to 4% every year for about 40 years, apart from a flat year between 2008 and 2009. But they fell 15% last year as people avoided hospitals because of COVID-19, notes Ely.</p><p>“We see these coming back. You can’t put off getting your knee done, or your ankle done, or your hip done forever,” he said. Pacira’s products will cut the risk of an opioid addiction, he adds, pointing to data showing 40% of people who end up addicted got there as the result of surgery.</p><p>While opiates have been popular because they’re cheap and get the job done, the playing field for companies like Pacira has been leveled thanks to a bipartisan opiates support bill of a couple of years ago that subsidizes non-opioid anesthesia, he noted.</p><p>His next pick taps into what everyone is looking for — companies levered to consumers or consumer interaction. “I have kids in their late 20s, late teens — they can’t wait to get back out there and go to an event, go back to the gym, go to restaurants, travel, what have you,” he said.</p><p>That leads him to stocks like ride-hailing group LyftLYFT,-2.67%,which he said has been getting costs under control and is specifically leveraged to helping consumers return to those activities. Lyft and rival Uber TechnologiesUBER,-0.56%,which Macquarie owns in larger portfolios, have both “shirked money-losing units, so they’re better prepared to show profits this year,” he said.</p><p>He also owns gym chain Planet FitnessPLNT,-1.17%.“I think after riding a bike indoors or what not for about a year, people are going to want to get back out there,” he said. “Planet Fitness is the largest by far, a clear leader in the value proposition growth area.”</p><p>Ely said he had been watching to see when Planet Fitness shares would start outperforming Peloton InteractivePTON,-0.82%.This is now happening, he notes, with the gym chain up 4% year-to-date and the maker of home-exercise equipment down 22%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/746ae77eabb740756a5c3121836df0b8\" tg-width=\"647\" tg-height=\"349\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Planet Fitness has “a lot of upside and fundamentals should improve significantly as we reopen over the next one month, two months, three months,” he said.</p><p>Ely also owns ProgynyPGNY,-1.17%,which he calls “one of the fastest-growing healthcare companies out there.” Progyny is a fertility-benefits provider for companies, with big Silicon Valley names such as MicrosoftMSFT,1.96%and FacebookFB,2.54%on its books.</p><p>“There’s a bunch of trends at play here. First off, people are having babies when they’re older, in general people are having more trouble having babies just flat out, and more and more corporations want to show that they care, and want to help employees in areas that they can. This is a terrific benefit for people to sign up for,” he said.</p><p>Many may have discovered during the pandemic problems with conceiving children, and may be ready to seek that treatment. Progyny did an initial public offering last January, went through the pandemic and did well, but then investors got rattled by some disappointment with revenue, Ely said.</p><p>“There’s nothing wrong with the business, they were just being conservative going into the year, which every company does” he said.</p><p>Ely reiterated the importance of investing early in an economic cycle, set to get kick-started by the recent U.S. fiscal stimulus package. “Right now, we are seven to eight months into a new economic cycle,” he said. Previous bull markets have lasted eight to nine years on average, and equities, notably small companies due to their leverage in an improving economy, tend to perform better, he added.</p><p>“The biggest risk to investors out there right now is not taking risk, [or being] blinded by these stories that the world isn’t going to be great. It’s going to be great, humanity is going to come through this drawdown in a terrific spot,” Ely said.</p>","source":"market_watch","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

We’re coming out of a pandemic. It’s going to be awesome,” he told MarketWatch in a recent interview.It appears some investors are thinking along the same lines, as value and cyclical stocks take off in anticipation of a recovery from the deadly COVID-19 pandemic that has rocked the world for a year. And smaller companies, cogs in the wheels of the economy, have also been rising with the Russell 2000RUT,-1.04%up 18% so far this year.“Smaller companies and mid caps, to an extent as well, are more levered to an expansion in the markets. And that’s why we believe smaller cap companies will do better,” said Ely. He focuses on what he calls “disruptive” stocks of companies that offer a “better, cheaper, faster way of doing things.”And Ely appears to have a knack for picking those stocks. Ad-tech group Trade DeskTTD,5.29%and mobile-payments processor SquareSQ,-0.99%,two companieshe highlighted last yearto MarketWatch, returned over 200% each last year. His five-star rated fund, Delaware Smid [small and mid] Cap GrowthDFCIX,+1.09%has had average annual returns of 34% over the past three years and 28% for five years. The fund has been in the top performance quartile of its “midcap growth” peer group for 15 years,according to Morningstar.Headed into the pandemic, Ely said it was best to own companies involving crowds or a recovery. “And now that we’re coming back out of it, there’s a couple of areas that we think have particular strengths,” he said.His first pick is Pacira BioSciencesPCRX,-0.47%,a maker of non-opioid local anesthesia that plays into a dramatic rebound in medical procedures he sees coming. Knee replacements and similar procedures had been increasing 2% to 4% every year for about 40 years, apart from a flat year between 2008 and 2009. But they fell 15% last year as people avoided hospitals because of COVID-19, notes Ely.“We see these coming back. You can’t put off getting your knee done, or your ankle done, or your hip done forever,” he said. Pacira’s products will cut the risk of an opioid addiction, he adds, pointing to data showing 40% of people who end up addicted got there as the result of surgery.While opiates have been popular because they’re cheap and get the job done, the playing field for companies like Pacira has been leveled thanks to a bipartisan opiates support bill of a couple of years ago that subsidizes non-opioid anesthesia, he noted.His next pick taps into what everyone is looking for — companies levered to consumers or consumer interaction. “I have kids in their late 20s, late teens — they can’t wait to get back out there and go to an event, go back to the gym, go to restaurants, travel, what have you,” he said.That leads him to stocks like ride-hailing group LyftLYFT,-2.67%,which he said has been getting costs under control and is specifically leveraged to helping consumers return to those activities. Lyft and rival Uber TechnologiesUBER,-0.56%,which Macquarie owns in larger portfolios, have both “shirked money-losing units, so they’re better prepared to show profits this year,” he said.He also owns gym chain Planet FitnessPLNT,-1.17%.“I think after riding a bike indoors or what not for about a year, people are going to want to get back out there,” he said. “Planet Fitness is the largest by far, a clear leader in the value proposition growth area.”Ely said he had been watching to see when Planet Fitness shares would start outperforming Peloton InteractivePTON,-0.82%.This is now happening, he notes, with the gym chain up 4% year-to-date and the maker of home-exercise equipment down 22%.Planet Fitness has “a lot of upside and fundamentals should improve significantly as we reopen over the next one month, two months, three months,” he said.Ely also owns ProgynyPGNY,-1.17%,which he calls “one of the fastest-growing healthcare companies out there.” Progyny is a fertility-benefits provider for companies, with big Silicon Valley names such as MicrosoftMSFT,1.96%and FacebookFB,2.54%on its books.“There’s a bunch of trends at play here. First off, people are having babies when they’re older, in general people are having more trouble having babies just flat out, and more and more corporations want to show that they care, and want to help employees in areas that they can. This is a terrific benefit for people to sign up for,” he said.Many may have discovered during the pandemic problems with conceiving children, and may be ready to seek that treatment. Progyny did an initial public offering last January, went through the pandemic and did well, but then investors got rattled by some disappointment with revenue, Ely said.“There’s nothing wrong with the business, they were just being conservative going into the year, which every company does” he said.Ely reiterated the importance of investing early in an economic cycle, set to get kick-started by the recent U.S. fiscal stimulus package. “Right now, we are seven to eight months into a new economic cycle,” he said. Previous bull markets have lasted eight to nine years on average, and equities, notably small companies due to their leverage in an improving economy, tend to perform better, he added.“The biggest risk to investors out there right now is not taking risk, [or being] blinded by these stories that the world isn’t going to be great. It’s going to be great, humanity is going to come through this drawdown in a terrific spot,” Ely said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":163,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":325636335,"gmtCreate":1615892759427,"gmtModify":1704788034188,"author":{"id":"3577487093536782","authorId":"3577487093536782","name":"Jensenchow","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1836439dc7ae18c2b5f57bb1a4a596b3","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yes","listText":"Yes","text":"Yes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/325636335","repostId":"1130270839","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1130270839","pubTimestamp":1615887302,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1130270839?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-03-16 17:35","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The U.S. Is Trying to Fix the Chip Shortage.

Morgan analyst has figured out which stocks could stand to gain the most from it.Amid global chip shortages, triggered in part by supply and demand fluctuations because of the Covid-19 pandemic as well as natural disasters, Congress authorized a series of programs and incentives for U.S.-based chip companies earlier this year. Lawmakers included the programs designed to bolster U.S. manufacturing, research, and development in the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal 2021, which became law in January, but didn’t provide funding for those initiatives.According to J.P. Morgan chip analyst Harlan Sur, it’s likely that funding for those programs may be included in President Joe Biden ‘s infrastructure bill, one of the next priorities for the administration. Sur expects the “Build Back Better” infrastructure plan to pass in the first half of the year, resulting in funding starting in the second half of 2021.Sur’s team estimated the incentives and subsidies could total between $35 billion and $37 billion, with about $18 billion to $20 billion for domestic chip manufacturing and $15 billion to $17 billion for chip research and development.Based on the current language in the National Defense Authorize Act, Sur wrote in a note published on Monday that he expects integrated device manufacturers based in the U.S. will likely be prioritized when it’s time to dole out funds and incentives.Those would include manufacturers such as Intel (ticker: INTC), Micron Technology (MU), Texas Instruments (TXN), Analog Devices (ADI), and On Semiconductor (ON) are all likely to benefit, Sur wrote. Companies that have U.S. defense-related qualifications are well-positioned to benefit as well, he wrote. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM) and NXP Semiconductors (NXPI), international-based chip manufacturers that operate in the U.S., should benefit too, he said, but to a lesser degree.Companies that make chip manufacturing equipment such as Applied Materials (AMAT) and Lam Research (LRCX) should also receive a lift because of higher equipment purchasing resulting from the incentives.The PHLX Semiconductor index, or Sox, advanced nearly 2% on Monday, led by NXP Semiconductors NXP, which rose 8.8% to $199.57, and Broadcom (AVGO), which jumped 4.3% to $470.66.The Sox has gained 94% in the past year as demand for chips destined for products ranging from appliances and videogame consoles to vehicles and smartphones has outpaced the industry’s ability to produce semiconductors.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":79,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
