The shares have clearly been hit by shifting levels of concern over the pandemic. Yet the stock is still up about 12% in the past year, and the company commands a sizable market cap of $105 billion.</p><p>Investors might have some pause to buy the stock right now since it still sells at 63 times free cash flow. Yet, the company has a leading position in the travel industry, a history of robust growth, and results are rebounding strongly with revenue up 67% year over year in the third quarter.</p><p>Plus, it's got a large and expanding addressable market and is already showing signs of building a tremendously powerful brand. So even at these high levels, Airbnb could still turn a small investment into a big <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>. Let's dive deeper.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F660048%2Ftravel-checking-in-room.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Breaking down the numbers</h2><p>If you invested $10,000 in Airbnb stock, it would need to climb 100 times in value to reach $1 million. That's too much to ask for the next 10 years, but it's not unreasonable to expect Airbnb to deliver this amount if you could hold its shares over the next 30 years. That would represent an annualized return of about 16.5%. Not many companies can grow at this rate for that long, but if Airbnb can cement itself as the top brand in travel, it could be one of the few great businesses that make early investors into millionaires.</p><p>It's certainly addressing a large market -- an estimated $3.4 trillion globally each year. Short-term stays, like business trips and weekend getaways, make up about $1.8 trillion of the market with long-term stays and other experiences representing the balance. Long-term stays are a huge growth opportunity, given the increasing interest in remote work. This is why management expects the demand for long-term stays to accelerate coming out of the pandemic.</p><p>Airbnb still has just a fraction of that addressable market, giving it plenty of room for growth. Over the past year, the company's gross booking value came to $41 billion, or just a little over 1% of the total market. Moreover, the market is going to expand. Over the past decade, excluding the blip from the pandemic, travel spending has increased about 3% to 5% annually. If it continues to grow around 4% annually over the next 30 years, that would put Airbnb's addressable market at around $10 trillion.</p><p>Airbnb would need to capture more than a third of that opportunity to grow its gross booking value 100 times, and therefore also see a proportionate increase in revenue and profits, which is what ultimately makes a stock go up.</p><h2>Keys to future growth</h2><p>While it's nearly impossible to forecast exactly what a business will look like way out in the future, here are a few things that should build confidence in Airbnb's growth trajectory.</p><p>For one thing, it has a strong brand. Even if you have never used Airbnb, you likely know a friend or family member who has. After all, there were nearly 80 million nights and experiences booked on Airbnb in the third quarter. A strong brand will be key to capturing a sizable chunk of its addressable market.</p><p>Another good sign: management has been shifting its marketing strategy to be more brand-centric and less dependent on search engines. During the first quarter of 2021, over 90% of Airbnb's traffic came from customers seeking Airbnb directly as opposed to finding it through a marketing channel. That's a sign of growing brand awareness.</p><p>Competition is always a risk since new entrants might emerge down the road, forcing Airbnb to lower service fees to maintain demand and revenue growth.

The shares have clearly been hit by shifting levels of concern over the pandemic. Yet the stock is still up about 12% in the past year, and the company commands a sizable market cap of $105 billion.Investors might have some pause to buy the stock right now since it still sells at 63 times free cash flow. Yet, the company has a leading position in the travel industry, a history of robust growth, and results are rebounding strongly with revenue up 67% year over year in the third quarter.Plus, it's got a large and expanding addressable market and is already showing signs of building a tremendously powerful brand. So even at these high levels, Airbnb could still turn a small investment into a big one. Let's dive deeper.Image source: Getty Images.Breaking down the numbersIf you invested $10,000 in Airbnb stock, it would need to climb 100 times in value to reach $1 million. That's too much to ask for the next 10 years, but it's not unreasonable to expect Airbnb to deliver this amount if you could hold its shares over the next 30 years. That would represent an annualized return of about 16.5%. Not many companies can grow at this rate for that long, but if Airbnb can cement itself as the top brand in travel, it could be one of the few great businesses that make early investors into millionaires.It's certainly addressing a large market -- an estimated $3.4 trillion globally each year. Short-term stays, like business trips and weekend getaways, make up about $1.8 trillion of the market with long-term stays and other experiences representing the balance. Long-term stays are a huge growth opportunity, given the increasing interest in remote work. This is why management expects the demand for long-term stays to accelerate coming out of the pandemic.Airbnb still has just a fraction of that addressable market, giving it plenty of room for growth. Over the past year, the company's gross booking value came to $41 billion, or just a little over 1% of the total market. Moreover, the market is going to expand. Over the past decade, excluding the blip from the pandemic, travel spending has increased about 3% to 5% annually. If it continues to grow around 4% annually over the next 30 years, that would put Airbnb's addressable market at around $10 trillion.Airbnb would need to capture more than a third of that opportunity to grow its gross booking value 100 times, and therefore also see a proportionate increase in revenue and profits, which is what ultimately makes a stock go up.Keys to future growthWhile it's nearly impossible to forecast exactly what a business will look like way out in the future, here are a few things that should build confidence in Airbnb's growth trajectory.For one thing, it has a strong brand. Even if you have never used Airbnb, you likely know a friend or family member who has. After all, there were nearly 80 million nights and experiences booked on Airbnb in the third quarter. A strong brand will be key to capturing a sizable chunk of its addressable market.Another good sign: management has been shifting its marketing strategy to be more brand-centric and less dependent on search engines. During the first quarter of 2021, over 90% of Airbnb's traffic came from customers seeking Airbnb directly as opposed to finding it through a marketing channel. That's a sign of growing brand awareness.Competition is always a risk since new entrants might emerge down the road, forcing Airbnb to lower service fees to maintain demand and revenue growth. But Airbnb is already widely recognized, which is a competitive advantage. Its name has nearly become a synonym for a place to stay -- similar to how \"Google\" replaced \"search.\"I believe Airbnb's record of growth from its humble beginnings in the co-founders' San Francisco apartment in 2007, the size of the travel opportunity, and its growing brand power point to a long-term winner. I recently bought shares and plan to add further as the business grows, so count me as a believer in this stock's millionaire-making potential.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":581,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9008200950,"gmtCreate":1641440657870,"gmtModify":1676533616032,"author":{"id":"3578333029676175","authorId":"3578333029676175","name":"Superkellyy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e4c6c62a2fc00490ec2ccc283a30f421","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578333029676175","authorIdStr":"3578333029676175"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9008200950","repostId":"9008360173","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":9008360173,"gmtCreate":1641362327510,"gmtModify":1676533606212,"author":{"id":"3527667592269412","authorId":"3527667592269412","name":"OptionsTracker","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e3f1f839aad7a15f602f3f42eaad51af","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3527667592269412","authorIdStr":"3527667592269412"},"themes":[],"title":"1.5 Unusual Options:Tencent reduced its stake in SEA by 2.6%","htmlText":"Tencent yesterday announced the sale of SEA shares, the second company to be sold after the dividend announcement of JD.com shares.In view of the current environment, there may be more companies to be reduced, no matter whether the follow-up will be reduced, many Tencent companies have already fallen to respect, the market has also expressed such concerns, the lack of market liquidity superimposed potential reduction expectations, last week just violent rebound in the concept of stocks began to break down.

Expect NOK stock to fall further before getting back up.</p>\n<p>With <b>Nokia</b> (NYSE:<b><u>NOK</u></b>) stock down 39% from its January highs, many investors have started asking if it’s time to buy into the 5G revolution. 5G is clearly one of the biggest cycles of the decade, and <b>Ericsson</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>ERIC</u></b>) can’t single-handedly build out every Western 5G network. At the same time, Chinese telecom behemoth <b>Huawei</b> is getting shut out of most networks due to security concerns. All of this sets up Nokia for a second chance at 5G.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/da705da927cdd5ba0c73d3d88d2922e8\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\"><span>Source: rafapress / Shutterstock.com</span></p>\n<p>But wait a bit longer before you buy NOK stock.</p>\n<p>There’s still a lot more that could go wrong with Nokia. A bumpy ride ahead should give patient investors an opportunity to jump in at a lower price.</p>\n<p><b>What You Know, What You Don’t</b></p>\n<p>It’s no secret that Nokia’s 5G start has been shaky. The company has been steadily losing contracts to Ericsson. It also got the cold shoulder from one of its biggest customers,<b>Verizon</b> (NYSE:<b><u>VZ</u></b>), which chose <b>Samsung</b> (OTCMKTS:<b><u>SSNLF</u></b>) for its 5G buildout.</p>\n<p>But what investors don’t realize is that Nokia’s biggest blunder could leave the company too far behind to catch up in the 5G race. Nokia fumbled badly by choosing programmable chips, called FPGAs, for its wireless radios.</p>\n<p>Although former CEO Rajeev Suri saw it as a key differentiator at the time, FPGAs are far more expensive than ASICs, which are made by semiconductor firms like <b>Broadcom</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>AVGO</u></b>) and <b>Marvell</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>MRVL</u></b>). They also consume more power. For Nokia, this decision has resulted in profit margin erosion and a reputation for inferior 5G equipment.</p>\n<p>Now Nokia is making a U-turn. The company has overhauled less than 40% of its equipment to ASICs. The transition won’t be fully complete until the end of next year. That means Nokia still has a long way to go before its costs go down. While the company is still clinging to its 7% operating margin target (already down from 9.7% in 2020), there’s no reason to get comfortable yet.</p>\n<p>That’s because profit margins aren’t the only numbers going in the wrong direction. Having already cut 11,000 jobs since 2018, the company plans to cut up to another 10,000. Management says it will pump much of the expense savings into research and development, hoping to reverse a three-year investment decline. But rivals have all been steadily increasing their 5G spending. Leadership has also been a revolving door, with Nokia having hired three different leaders of its mobile networks division over the past 4 years.</p>\n<p><b>The Next Slice of Pie Could Be Much Smaller</b></p>\n<p>The key to Nokia’s problem is that no matter how quickly the company catches up in ASIC chips, its customers are already sailing further away on a new technology: Open RAN (O-RAN).

Expect NOK stock to fall further before getting back up.\nWith Nokia (NYSE:NOK) stock down 39% from its January highs, many investors have started asking if it’s time to buy into the 5G revolution. 5G is clearly one of the biggest cycles of the decade, and Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC) can’t single-handedly build out every Western 5G network. At the same time, Chinese telecom behemoth Huawei is getting shut out of most networks due to security concerns. All of this sets up Nokia for a second chance at 5G.\nSource: rafapress / Shutterstock.com\nBut wait a bit longer before you buy NOK stock.\nThere’s still a lot more that could go wrong with Nokia. A bumpy ride ahead should give patient investors an opportunity to jump in at a lower price.\nWhat You Know, What You Don’t\nIt’s no secret that Nokia’s 5G start has been shaky. The company has been steadily losing contracts to Ericsson. It also got the cold shoulder from one of its biggest customers,Verizon (NYSE:VZ), which chose Samsung (OTCMKTS:SSNLF) for its 5G buildout.\nBut what investors don’t realize is that Nokia’s biggest blunder could leave the company too far behind to catch up in the 5G race. Nokia fumbled badly by choosing programmable chips, called FPGAs, for its wireless radios.\nAlthough former CEO Rajeev Suri saw it as a key differentiator at the time, FPGAs are far more expensive than ASICs, which are made by semiconductor firms like Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO) and Marvell (NASDAQ:MRVL). They also consume more power. For Nokia, this decision has resulted in profit margin erosion and a reputation for inferior 5G equipment.\nNow Nokia is making a U-turn. The company has overhauled less than 40% of its equipment to ASICs. The transition won’t be fully complete until the end of next year. That means Nokia still has a long way to go before its costs go down. While the company is still clinging to its 7% operating margin target (already down from 9.7% in 2020), there’s no reason to get comfortable yet.\nThat’s because profit margins aren’t the only numbers going in the wrong direction. Having already cut 11,000 jobs since 2018, the company plans to cut up to another 10,000. Management says it will pump much of the expense savings into research and development, hoping to reverse a three-year investment decline. But rivals have all been steadily increasing their 5G spending. Leadership has also been a revolving door, with Nokia having hired three different leaders of its mobile networks division over the past 4 years.\nThe Next Slice of Pie Could Be Much Smaller\nThe key to Nokia’s problem is that no matter how quickly the company catches up in ASIC chips, its customers are already sailing further away on a new technology: Open RAN (O-RAN). O-RAN is an open on-ramp between your smartphone and the mobile network.\nO-RAN is terrifying to Nokia (and Ericsson too). The technology breaks open the on-ramp, allowing operators to slot in new hardware from different suppliers. This kind of architecture threatens to shake up today’s tech oligopoly, offering new companies a chance to get into the game. Because the RAN is the biggest piece of the 5G network pie, representing just under 50% of the total infrastructure market, spending shifts here are extremely important.\nO-RAN means Nokia will have to fight harder for an even smaller slice of the 5G revolution.Fujitsu (OTCMKTS:FJTSY, OTCMKTS:FJTSF) and NEC are new entrants boasting success at multi-vendor RAN. Upstart Japanese 5G operator and major O-RAN backer Rakuten (OTCMKTS:RKUNY) is also in the mix.\nAnd the world’s biggest companies are already jumping aboard. Verizon and DISH Network (NASDAQ:DISH) have started testing O-RAN and have made hardware selections. French telecom operator Orange S.A. (NYSE:ORAN) is even more aggressive. Starting in 2025, anything it buys for its network must be O-RAN compliant.\nBreaking Up Big Tech\nWhile O-RAN tech is still in early stages, it has a good chance of success — for two reasons.\nFirst, it provides a solution to mobile operators’ biggest headache: How to scale and manage networks against a tsunami of exploding mobile data.

The shares have clearly been hit by shifting levels of concern over the pandemic. Yet the stock is still up about 12% in the past year, and the company commands a sizable market cap of $105 billion.</p><p>Investors might have some pause to buy the stock right now since it still sells at 63 times free cash flow. Yet, the company has a leading position in the travel industry, a history of robust growth, and results are rebounding strongly with revenue up 67% year over year in the third quarter.</p><p>Plus, it's got a large and expanding addressable market and is already showing signs of building a tremendously powerful brand. So even at these high levels, Airbnb could still turn a small investment into a big <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>. Let's dive deeper.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F660048%2Ftravel-checking-in-room.jpg&w=700&op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Breaking down the numbers</h2><p>If you invested $10,000 in Airbnb stock, it would need to climb 100 times in value to reach $1 million. That's too much to ask for the next 10 years, but it's not unreasonable to expect Airbnb to deliver this amount if you could hold its shares over the next 30 years. That would represent an annualized return of about 16.5%. Not many companies can grow at this rate for that long, but if Airbnb can cement itself as the top brand in travel, it could be one of the few great businesses that make early investors into millionaires.</p><p>It's certainly addressing a large market -- an estimated $3.4 trillion globally each year. Short-term stays, like business trips and weekend getaways, make up about $1.8 trillion of the market with long-term stays and other experiences representing the balance. Long-term stays are a huge growth opportunity, given the increasing interest in remote work. This is why management expects the demand for long-term stays to accelerate coming out of the pandemic.</p><p>Airbnb still has just a fraction of that addressable market, giving it plenty of room for growth. Over the past year, the company's gross booking value came to $41 billion, or just a little over 1% of the total market. Moreover, the market is going to expand. Over the past decade, excluding the blip from the pandemic, travel spending has increased about 3% to 5% annually. If it continues to grow around 4% annually over the next 30 years, that would put Airbnb's addressable market at around $10 trillion.</p><p>Airbnb would need to capture more than a third of that opportunity to grow its gross booking value 100 times, and therefore also see a proportionate increase in revenue and profits, which is what ultimately makes a stock go up.</p><h2>Keys to future growth</h2><p>While it's nearly impossible to forecast exactly what a business will look like way out in the future, here are a few things that should build confidence in Airbnb's growth trajectory.</p><p>For one thing, it has a strong brand. Even if you have never used Airbnb, you likely know a friend or family member who has. After all, there were nearly 80 million nights and experiences booked on Airbnb in the third quarter. A strong brand will be key to capturing a sizable chunk of its addressable market.</p><p>Another good sign: management has been shifting its marketing strategy to be more brand-centric and less dependent on search engines. During the first quarter of 2021, over 90% of Airbnb's traffic came from customers seeking Airbnb directly as opposed to finding it through a marketing channel. That's a sign of growing brand awareness.</p><p>Competition is always a risk since new entrants might emerge down the road, forcing Airbnb to lower service fees to maintain demand and revenue growth.

The shares have clearly been hit by shifting levels of concern over the pandemic. Yet the stock is still up about 12% in the past year, and the company commands a sizable market cap of $105 billion.Investors might have some pause to buy the stock right now since it still sells at 63 times free cash flow. Yet, the company has a leading position in the travel industry, a history of robust growth, and results are rebounding strongly with revenue up 67% year over year in the third quarter.Plus, it's got a large and expanding addressable market and is already showing signs of building a tremendously powerful brand. So even at these high levels, Airbnb could still turn a small investment into a big one. Let's dive deeper.Image source: Getty Images.Breaking down the numbersIf you invested $10,000 in Airbnb stock, it would need to climb 100 times in value to reach $1 million. That's too much to ask for the next 10 years, but it's not unreasonable to expect Airbnb to deliver this amount if you could hold its shares over the next 30 years. That would represent an annualized return of about 16.5%. Not many companies can grow at this rate for that long, but if Airbnb can cement itself as the top brand in travel, it could be one of the few great businesses that make early investors into millionaires.It's certainly addressing a large market -- an estimated $3.4 trillion globally each year. Short-term stays, like business trips and weekend getaways, make up about $1.8 trillion of the market with long-term stays and other experiences representing the balance. Long-term stays are a huge growth opportunity, given the increasing interest in remote work. This is why management expects the demand for long-term stays to accelerate coming out of the pandemic.Airbnb still has just a fraction of that addressable market, giving it plenty of room for growth. Over the past year, the company's gross booking value came to $41 billion, or just a little over 1% of the total market. Moreover, the market is going to expand. Over the past decade, excluding the blip from the pandemic, travel spending has increased about 3% to 5% annually. If it continues to grow around 4% annually over the next 30 years, that would put Airbnb's addressable market at around $10 trillion.Airbnb would need to capture more than a third of that opportunity to grow its gross booking value 100 times, and therefore also see a proportionate increase in revenue and profits, which is what ultimately makes a stock go up.Keys to future growthWhile it's nearly impossible to forecast exactly what a business will look like way out in the future, here are a few things that should build confidence in Airbnb's growth trajectory.For one thing, it has a strong brand. Even if you have never used Airbnb, you likely know a friend or family member who has. After all, there were nearly 80 million nights and experiences booked on Airbnb in the third quarter. A strong brand will be key to capturing a sizable chunk of its addressable market.Another good sign: management has been shifting its marketing strategy to be more brand-centric and less dependent on search engines. During the first quarter of 2021, over 90% of Airbnb's traffic came from customers seeking Airbnb directly as opposed to finding it through a marketing channel. That's a sign of growing brand awareness.Competition is always a risk since new entrants might emerge down the road, forcing Airbnb to lower service fees to maintain demand and revenue growth. But Airbnb is already widely recognized, which is a competitive advantage. Its name has nearly become a synonym for a place to stay -- similar to how \"Google\" replaced \"search.\"I believe Airbnb's record of growth from its humble beginnings in the co-founders' San Francisco apartment in 2007, the size of the travel opportunity, and its growing brand power point to a long-term winner. I recently bought shares and plan to add further as the business grows, so count me as a believer in this stock's millionaire-making potential.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":581,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9004959713,"gmtCreate":1642482527625,"gmtModify":1676533714646,"author":{"id":"3578333029676175","authorId":"3578333029676175","name":"Superkellyy","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e4c6c62a2fc00490ec2ccc283a30f421","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578333029676175","authorIdStr":"3578333029676175"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9004959713","repostId":"2204077940","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2204077940","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1642465613,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2204077940?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-18 08:26","market":"us","language":"en","title":"My Best Metaverse Stock for 2022","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2204077940","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"This cheap tech stock could help build the metaverse.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Shares of <b>Micron Technology</b> (NASDAQ:MU) have rallied impressively over the past three months as investors and Wall Street have warmed up to the fact that the demand for memory chips is going to remain strong in 2022 and beyond, thanks to several applications ranging from computers to consoles to data centers.</p><p>However, there's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> more catalyst for Micron Technology that investors may have overlooked -- the metaverse.

Expect NOK stock to fall further before getting back up.</p>\n<p>With <b>Nokia</b> (NYSE:<b><u>NOK</u></b>) stock down 39% from its January highs, many investors have started asking if it’s time to buy into the 5G revolution. 5G is clearly one of the biggest cycles of the decade, and <b>Ericsson</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>ERIC</u></b>) can’t single-handedly build out every Western 5G network. At the same time, Chinese telecom behemoth <b>Huawei</b> is getting shut out of most networks due to security concerns. All of this sets up Nokia for a second chance at 5G.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/da705da927cdd5ba0c73d3d88d2922e8\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\"><span>Source: rafapress / Shutterstock.com</span></p>\n<p>But wait a bit longer before you buy NOK stock.</p>\n<p>There’s still a lot more that could go wrong with Nokia. A bumpy ride ahead should give patient investors an opportunity to jump in at a lower price.</p>\n<p><b>What You Know, What You Don’t</b></p>\n<p>It’s no secret that Nokia’s 5G start has been shaky. The company has been steadily losing contracts to Ericsson. It also got the cold shoulder from one of its biggest customers,<b>Verizon</b> (NYSE:<b><u>VZ</u></b>), which chose <b>Samsung</b> (OTCMKTS:<b><u>SSNLF</u></b>) for its 5G buildout.</p>\n<p>But what investors don’t realize is that Nokia’s biggest blunder could leave the company too far behind to catch up in the 5G race. Nokia fumbled badly by choosing programmable chips, called FPGAs, for its wireless radios.</p>\n<p>Although former CEO Rajeev Suri saw it as a key differentiator at the time, FPGAs are far more expensive than ASICs, which are made by semiconductor firms like <b>Broadcom</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>AVGO</u></b>) and <b>Marvell</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>MRVL</u></b>). They also consume more power. For Nokia, this decision has resulted in profit margin erosion and a reputation for inferior 5G equipment.</p>\n<p>Now Nokia is making a U-turn. The company has overhauled less than 40% of its equipment to ASICs. The transition won’t be fully complete until the end of next year. That means Nokia still has a long way to go before its costs go down. While the company is still clinging to its 7% operating margin target (already down from 9.7% in 2020), there’s no reason to get comfortable yet.</p>\n<p>That’s because profit margins aren’t the only numbers going in the wrong direction. Having already cut 11,000 jobs since 2018, the company plans to cut up to another 10,000. Management says it will pump much of the expense savings into research and development, hoping to reverse a three-year investment decline. But rivals have all been steadily increasing their 5G spending. Leadership has also been a revolving door, with Nokia having hired three different leaders of its mobile networks division over the past 4 years.</p>\n<p><b>The Next Slice of Pie Could Be Much Smaller</b></p>\n<p>The key to Nokia’s problem is that no matter how quickly the company catches up in ASIC chips, its customers are already sailing further away on a new technology: Open RAN (O-RAN). O-RAN is an open on-ramp between your smartphone and the mobile network.</p>\n<p>O-RAN is terrifying to Nokia (and Ericsson too). The technology breaks open the on-ramp, allowing operators to slot in new hardware from different suppliers. This kind of architecture threatens to shake up today’s tech oligopoly, offering new companies a chance to get into the game. Because the RAN is the biggest piece of the 5G network pie, representing just under 50% of the total infrastructure market, spending shifts here are extremely important.</p>\n<p>O-RAN means Nokia will have to fight harder for an even smaller slice of the 5G revolution.<b>Fujitsu</b> (OTCMKTS:<b><u>FJTSY</u></b>, OTCMKTS:<b><u>FJTSF</u></b>) and <b>NEC</b> are new entrants boasting success at multi-vendor RAN. Upstart Japanese 5G operator and major O-RAN backer <b>Rakuten</b> (OTCMKTS:<b><u>RKUNY</u></b>) is also in the mix.</p>\n<p>And the world’s biggest companies are already jumping aboard. Verizon and <b>DISH Network</b> (NASDAQ:<b><u>DISH</u></b>) have started testing O-RAN and have made hardware selections. French telecom operator <b>Orange S.A.</b> (NYSE:<b><u>ORAN</u></b>) is even more aggressive. Starting in 2025, anything it buys for its network must be O-RAN compliant.</p>\n<p><b>Breaking Up Big Tech</b></p>\n<p>While O-RAN tech is still in early stages, it has a good chance of success — for two reasons.</p>\n<p>First, it provides a solution to mobile operators’ biggest headache: How to scale and manage networks against a tsunami of exploding mobile data. In fact, O-RAN’s open architecture looks a lot like cloud computing and server virtualization, which for mobile operators, are technologies whose interoperability and scale yield better performance at a lower cost.</p>\n<p>The second reason O-RAN should succeed: It’s backed by a strong political agenda — especially in Europe. With 5G technology largely hailing from the U.S. and Asia, European companies increasingly want to support their own.<b>Telefonica Deutschland</b> (NYSE:<b><u>TEF</u></b>) CEO Markus Haas has called for Europe’s 1.8 trillion euro Covid-19 recovery fund to support European O-RAN companies. The E.U. is studying this topic as part of broader digital reforms. The U.K. also formed a task force to advise on interventions to open up the telecom market.</p>\n<p><b>NOK Stock: A Rising Tide Doesn’t Always Lift All Boats</b></p>\n<p>Playing 5G is smart. And there’s good reason to be constructive on Nokia stock. With 5G networks expected to accelerate this year and next, and telecom operators looking for a western alternative to ERIC, the industry has a vested interest in seeing NOK weather the storm.</p>\n<p>But the company will have to do more than clear the decks. It needs to start leading the 5G conversation.</p>\n<p>NOK stock trades at 7x EBITDA — essentially in line with its 5-year average. With 2021 looking to be a difficult year ahead, the worst isn’t over for the stock.

Expect NOK stock to fall further before getting back up.\nWith Nokia (NYSE:NOK) stock down 39% from its January highs, many investors have started asking if it’s time to buy into the 5G revolution. 5G is clearly one of the biggest cycles of the decade, and Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC) can’t single-handedly build out every Western 5G network. At the same time, Chinese telecom behemoth Huawei is getting shut out of most networks due to security concerns. All of this sets up Nokia for a second chance at 5G.\nSource: rafapress / Shutterstock.com\nBut wait a bit longer before you buy NOK stock.\nThere’s still a lot more that could go wrong with Nokia. A bumpy ride ahead should give patient investors an opportunity to jump in at a lower price.\nWhat You Know, What You Don’t\nIt’s no secret that Nokia’s 5G start has been shaky. The company has been steadily losing contracts to Ericsson. It also got the cold shoulder from one of its biggest customers,Verizon (NYSE:VZ), which chose Samsung (OTCMKTS:SSNLF) for its 5G buildout.\nBut what investors don’t realize is that Nokia’s biggest blunder could leave the company too far behind to catch up in the 5G race. Nokia fumbled badly by choosing programmable chips, called FPGAs, for its wireless radios.\nAlthough former CEO Rajeev Suri saw it as a key differentiator at the time, FPGAs are far more expensive than ASICs, which are made by semiconductor firms like Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO) and Marvell (NASDAQ:MRVL). They also consume more power. For Nokia, this decision has resulted in profit margin erosion and a reputation for inferior 5G equipment.\nNow Nokia is making a U-turn. The company has overhauled less than 40% of its equipment to ASICs. The transition won’t be fully complete until the end of next year. That means Nokia still has a long way to go before its costs go down. While the company is still clinging to its 7% operating margin target (already down from 9.7% in 2020), there’s no reason to get comfortable yet.\nThat’s because profit margins aren’t the only numbers going in the wrong direction. Having already cut 11,000 jobs since 2018, the company plans to cut up to another 10,000. Management says it will pump much of the expense savings into research and development, hoping to reverse a three-year investment decline. But rivals have all been steadily increasing their 5G spending. Leadership has also been a revolving door, with Nokia having hired three different leaders of its mobile networks division over the past 4 years.\nThe Next Slice of Pie Could Be Much Smaller\nThe key to Nokia’s problem is that no matter how quickly the company catches up in ASIC chips, its customers are already sailing further away on a new technology: Open RAN (O-RAN). O-RAN is an open on-ramp between your smartphone and the mobile network.\nO-RAN is terrifying to Nokia (and Ericsson too). The technology breaks open the on-ramp, allowing operators to slot in new hardware from different suppliers. This kind of architecture threatens to shake up today’s tech oligopoly, offering new companies a chance to get into the game. Because the RAN is the biggest piece of the 5G network pie, representing just under 50% of the total infrastructure market, spending shifts here are extremely important.\nO-RAN means Nokia will have to fight harder for an even smaller slice of the 5G revolution.Fujitsu (OTCMKTS:FJTSY, OTCMKTS:FJTSF) and NEC are new entrants boasting success at multi-vendor RAN. Upstart Japanese 5G operator and major O-RAN backer Rakuten (OTCMKTS:RKUNY) is also in the mix.\nAnd the world’s biggest companies are already jumping aboard. Verizon and DISH Network (NASDAQ:DISH) have started testing O-RAN and have made hardware selections. French telecom operator Orange S.A. (NYSE:ORAN) is even more aggressive. Starting in 2025, anything it buys for its network must be O-RAN compliant.\nBreaking Up Big Tech\nWhile O-RAN tech is still in early stages, it has a good chance of success — for two reasons.\nFirst, it provides a solution to mobile operators’ biggest headache: How to scale and manage networks against a tsunami of exploding mobile data. In fact, O-RAN’s open architecture looks a lot like cloud computing and server virtualization, which for mobile operators, are technologies whose interoperability and scale yield better performance at a lower cost.\nThe second reason O-RAN should succeed: It’s backed by a strong political agenda — especially in Europe. With 5G technology largely hailing from the U.S. and Asia, European companies increasingly want to support their own.Telefonica Deutschland (NYSE:TEF) CEO Markus Haas has called for Europe’s 1.8 trillion euro Covid-19 recovery fund to support European O-RAN companies. The E.U. is studying this topic as part of broader digital reforms. The U.K. also formed a task force to advise on interventions to open up the telecom market.\nNOK Stock: A Rising Tide Doesn’t Always Lift All Boats\nPlaying 5G is smart. And there’s good reason to be constructive on Nokia stock. With 5G networks expected to accelerate this year and next, and telecom operators looking for a western alternative to ERIC, the industry has a vested interest in seeing NOK weather the storm.\nBut the company will have to do more than clear the decks. It needs to start leading the 5G conversation.\nNOK stock trades at 7x EBITDA — essentially in line with its 5-year average. With 2021 looking to be a difficult year ahead, the worst isn’t over for the stock. Wait until the shares fall further before jumping into NOK as a comeback play.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":379,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
