During 2020, the pandemic supercharged its business, but the company hasn't lost momentum.</p>\n<p>CEO Dan Schulman started the first-quarter earnings call by telling investors, \"We just completed our strongest quarter ever.\" Growth in active accounts and total payment volume (TPV) accelerated to 21% and 50%, respectively. That drove revenue of $6 billion for the quarter, up 31%, and free cash flow of $1.5 billion, up 27%.</p>\n<p>Those latest quarterly results fit PayPal's long-term trend of strong financial performance.</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n  <tr>\n   <th><p>Metric</p></th>\n   <th><p>2017</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q1 2021 (TTM)</p></th>\n   <th><p>CAGR</p></th>\n  </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>Revenue</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$13.1 billion</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$22.9 billion</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>19%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>Free cash flow</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$1.9 billion</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$5.3 billion</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>38%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Data source: PayPal&nbsp;SEC filings.

That means inflation could theoretically boost the company's top line -- as consumer prices increase, PayPal's cut would increase, too. But even if that doesn't play out, this fintech stock still looks like a good long-term investment.</p>\n<h3>New products and partnerships</h3>\n<p>During the Q1 earnings call, Schulman provided an update on PayPal's $110 trillion market opportunity. Specifically, he noted that the success of several new products and partnerships was driving the expansion of that figure.</p>\n<p>For instance, PayPal launched QR code payments in May 2020, enabling consumers to make in-store purchases with a smartphone. By the end of the year, over 600,000 merchants accepted PayPal and Venmo QR codes. Schulman noted strong momentum during Q1, with <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> new business adopting the service every 28 seconds. In total, the company says, nearly 1 million merchants now accept PayPal and Venmo QR codes at checkout.</p>\n<p>PayPal also recently partnered with financial service provider <b>Fiserv</b>, expanding its QR code service to Clover point-of-sale (POS) systems. Last year, Fiserv merchants using the Clover POS system facilitated over $135 billion in payments, putting PayPal in front of another big opportunity.</p>\n<p>In the last 12 months, PayPal also launched several other products to drive user engagement. For instance, consumers can now buy and make purchases with cryptocurrency. PayPal also introduced the Venmo credit card&nbsp;and a buy now, pay later (BNPL) option. So far, the results are promising, as payment transactions and transactions per active account both accelerated in Q1.</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n  <tr>\n   <th><p>Metric</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q1 2019</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q1 2020</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q1 2021</p></th>\n  </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td width=\"180\"><p>Payment transactions growth (YOY)</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>28%</p></td>\n   <td width=\"150\"><p>15%</p></td>\n   <td width=\"138\"><p>34%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td width=\"180\"><p>Transactions per account growth (YOY)</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>9%</p></td>\n   <td width=\"150\"><p>4%</p></td>\n   <td width=\"138\"><p>7%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>YOY=year over year. Data source: PayPal&nbsp;SEC filings.</p>\n<p>PayPal has formed a partnership with the world's largest e-commerce retailer: <b>Alibaba Group Holding</b>. According to Schulman, the agreement \"will enable hundreds of millions of consumers outside of China to shop across Alibaba sites in China.\" This represents a significant opportunity. Case in point, Alibaba's gross merchandise volume&nbsp;(GMV) was more than double <b>Amazon</b>'s&nbsp;in 2020.</p>\n<p>PayPal has also formed a partnership with fintech company FlutterWave&nbsp;in Africa, increasing merchant access to PayPal consumers. Notably, e-commerce adoption in Africa is far lower&nbsp;than it is in developed countries like the U.S.&nbsp;and China, giving PayPal a chance to take share in that emerging market.</p>\n<h3>The future looks bright</h3>\n<p>PayPal plans to launch its next-generation digital wallet in the third quarter this year. According to Schulman, the app will be an all-in-<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> tool that provides consumers with customized shopping experiences and financial services. Investors should pay attention to this situation, as it could mark an inflection point for the fintech company.</p>\n<p>So what's the takeaway? PayPal continues to strengthen its global network, successfully driving engagement and growth across its payments ecosystem. And with the share price trading roughly 20% below its 52-week high, now looks like a good time to buy this growth stock.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Worried About Inflation?

So far, the results are promising, as payment transactions and transactions per active account both accelerated in Q1.\n\n\n\nMetric\nQ1 2019\nQ1 2020\nQ1 2021\n\n\n\n\nPayment transactions growth (YOY)\n28%\n15%\n34%\n\n\nTransactions per account growth (YOY)\n9%\n4%\n7%\n\n\n\nYOY=year over year. Data source: PayPal SEC filings.\nPayPal has formed a partnership with the world's largest e-commerce retailer: Alibaba Group Holding. According to Schulman, the agreement \"will enable hundreds of millions of consumers outside of China to shop across Alibaba sites in China.\" This represents a significant opportunity. Case in point, Alibaba's gross merchandise volume (GMV) was more than double Amazon's in 2020.\nPayPal has also formed a partnership with fintech company FlutterWave in Africa, increasing merchant access to PayPal consumers. Notably, e-commerce adoption in Africa is far lower than it is in developed countries like the U.S. and China, giving PayPal a chance to take share in that emerging market.\nThe future looks bright\nPayPal plans to launch its next-generation digital wallet in the third quarter this year. According to Schulman, the app will be an all-in-one tool that provides consumers with customized shopping experiences and financial services. Investors should pay attention to this situation, as it could mark an inflection point for the fintech company.\nSo what's the takeaway? PayPal continues to strengthen its global network, successfully driving engagement and growth across its payments ecosystem. And with the share price trading roughly 20% below its 52-week high, now looks like a good time to buy this growth stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":192,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":131330299,"gmtCreate":1621825852311,"gmtModify":1704362875171,"author":{"id":"3578445262260978","authorId":"3578445262260978","name":"BChew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4e3097563de7fcf194cd187e0dafca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578445262260978","authorIdStr":"3578445262260978"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/131330299","repostId":"1190158785","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1190158785","pubTimestamp":1621823299,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1190158785?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-24 10:28","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore Airlines Records Toughest Year in History","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1190158785","media":"Airline Geeks","summary":"Singapore flag carrier Singapore Airlines reported on Wednesday that it had suffered a net loss of4.","content":"<p>Singapore flag carrier Singapore Airlines reported on Wednesday that it had suffered a net loss of4.3 billion Singapore dollars ($3.23 billion)for the financial year ending in March 2021 as the Covid-19 pandemic continues to wreck international aviation, which the airline relies on given Singapore’s lack of a domestic aviation market.</p>\n<p>The massive loss was far bigger than the 212 million Singapore dollar loss recorded in the prior financial year, its first-ever dip into the red, when only one quarter had been affected by the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The airline said group passenger traffic shrank 97.9% in the financial year ended March 31 from a year before and that group revenue fell by 12 billion Singapore dollars to 3.816 billion Singapore dollars due to the decline in passenger flown revenue across Singapore Airlines, SilkAir and Scoot, the three passenger airlines within the group.</p>\n<p>This was partially offset by an increase in cargo flown revenue, which rose by 39% year-over-year to 2.71 billion Singapore dollars — which was the result of advancements in freighter utilization — such as operating passenger aircraft for cargo-only flights and removing seats from passenger cabins to create additional cargo volume.</p>\n<p>Strong air cargo demand, especially in key segments such as e-commerce, pharmaceuticals and electronics, provided strong support for both cargo load factors and yields amid tight industry cargo capacity.</p>\n<p>The group’s cargo network comprised 72 destinations including Singapore, up from a previous 66 as of December 31, 2020.</p>\n<p>Singapore Airlines Group said that it expects passenger capacity to be around 28% of pre-Covid-19 levels by June 2021.

The items range from basic oat milk, to even ice cream and yogurt made from oat milk. According to its website, Oatly’s goal is “to make it easy for people to turn what they eat and drink into personal moments of healthy joy without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process.”</p><p>Oatly confidentially filed for its IPO back in February, then officiallyset terms of the move last week. According to multiple outlets, Oatly will offer about 84.4 million American depositary shares (ADS) at between $15 and $17 per share. In total, the Oatly IPO could reach a $10.1 billion valuation, and the firm hopes to raise $1.1 billion.</p><p>Additionally, Oatly plans to trade on the Nasdaq exchange under the ticker “OTLY” and had nine lead underwriters for its IPO.</p><p><b>The majority shareholder</b></p><p>Oatly was founded in 1994 by Rickard Oste, a professor of food chemistry and nutrition in Sweden, and his brother Bjorn Oste. Working in Malmo, Sweden, they developed a way of processing a slurry of oats and water with enzymes to produce natural sweetness and a milk-like taste and consistency.</p><p>Oatly’s image benefited from a roster of celebrity investors, including Oprah Winfrey, Natalie Portman, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation company, and Howard Schultz, the former chief executive of Starbucks. All have some connection to the plant-based or healthy living movement.</p><p>The majority shareholder is a partnership between an entity owned by the Chinese government and Verlinvest, a Belgian firm that invests some of the wealth of the families that control the Anheuser-Busch InBev beer empire. Blackstone, the giant private equity firm, owns a little less than 8 percent in Oatly.</p><p>The company’s growth went into overdrive after Verlinvest bought a majority stake in 2016 via a joint venture with China Resources, a state-owned conglomerate with vast holdings in cement, power generation, coal mining, beer, retailing and many other industries. The new financing helped Oatly to expand in Europe and begin exporting to the United States and China, where many people cannot tolerate cow’s milk. China Resources’ involvement undoubtedly helped open doors in the Chinese market. Asia, primarily China, accounted for 18 percent of sales in the first quarter of 2021, and is growing at a rate of 450 percent a year, according to Oatly.</p><p>In Europe, there is growing alarm about Chinese investment in strategic industries like autos, batteries and robotics. The European Commission has begun erecting regulatory barriers to companies with financial links to the Chinese government. But so far no one has expressed fear that China will dominate the world’s supply of oat milk.</p><p>Just in case, Oatly’s prospectus gives it the option of listing in Hong Kong if the foreign ownership becomes a problem in the United States.</p><p><b>The Key Markets</b></p><p>Oat milk is part of a larger trend toward food that mimics animal products. So-called food tech companies like Beyond Meat have raised a little more than $18 billion in venture funding, according to PitchBook, which tracks the industry. Plant-based dairy, which in the United States includes brands like Ripple (made from peas) and Mooala (bananas), raised $640 million last year, more than double the amount raised a year earlier.</p><p>According to the Plant Based Foods Association and Good Foods Institute, plant-based-food sales reached $7 billion in 2020.</p><p>Consumer Insights data quoted in the prospectus says the plant-based milk category will grow 20% to 25% over the next three years.</p><p>Oatly is focused on its role in helping to transform the food industry in order to be better for the environment and meet the health needs of its customers. The company points out that substituting a cup of Oatly for a cup of cow’s milk reduces greenhouse gas emissions, land use and energy consumption.</p><p>Tastewise, which provides food and beverage data and intelligence, said in a December 2020 report that “plant-based everything” will be one of the top 10 U.S. trends for this year.</p><p>Oatly’s key markets are Sweden, Germany and the U.K., though its products were available in 60,000 retail stores and 32,200 coffee shops around the world as of December 31, 2020. Among the places where customers can find Oatly is Starbucks, where demand was so high there was a shortage soon after the coffee chain introduced beverages made with the item.</p><p>Oatly arrived in the U.S. in 2017. The company says it “focused on targeting coffee’s tastemakers, professional baristas at independent coffee shops” as a way to enter the market.”</p><p>By December 31, 2020, Oatly was in more than 7,500 retail shops and 10,000 coffee shops in the U.S. Revenue in 2020 totaled $100 million in the U.S.</p><p>Oatly can also be found in 11,000 coffee and tea shops in China, and at more than 6,000 retail and specialty shops across the country, including thousands of Starbucks locations.</p><p><b>Loss of Warning</b></p><p>In 2020, Oatly had revenue of $421.4 million, up from $204.0 million the year before. However, the company reported a loss of $60.4 million “reflecting our continued investment in production, brand awareness, new markets and product development,” the prospectus said.</p><p>Oatly is classified as an “emerging growth company,” which means it does not have to make the same disclosures required of bigger public companies. A business remains an emerging growth company until it reaches a number of milestones, including annual revenue of more than $1.07 billion.</p><p>Oatly warns that it has reported losses over the last “several” years and expects operating and capital expenses to rise “substantially.”</p><p>“Our expansion efforts may take longer or prove more expensive than we anticipate, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we may not succeed in increasing our revenue and margins sufficiently to offset the anticipated higher expenses,” the company said in its prospectus.</p><p>“We incur significant expenses in researching and developing our innovative products, building out our production and manufacturing facilities, obtaining and storing ingredients and other products and marketing the products we offer.”</p><p><b>The dairy market is highly competitive</b></p><p>Oatly acknowledged in its offering documents that it faces fierce competition, including from “multinational corporations with substantially greater resources and operations than us.”</p><p>That would include British consumer goods maker Unilever, which said last year that it aims to generate revenue of one billion euros, or $1.2 billion, by 2027 from plant-based substitutes for meat and dairy, for example Hellmann’s vegan mayonnaise or Ben &amp; Jerry’s dairy-free ice cream. Unilever has not announced plans for a milk substitute.</p><p>Some industry analysts argue that Oatly’s size gives it an edge over these giants, allowing it to be more innovative than a corporate behemoth. Food start-ups are “younger and faster,” said Patrick Müller-Sarmiento, head of the consumer goods and retail practice at Roland Berger, a German consulting firm.</p><p>The established food giants also have a tougher time than newcomers convincing consumers that they are sincere about saving the planet, an important part of the oat milk sales pitch.</p><p>Mr. Müller-Sarmiento, the former chief executive of Real, a German chain of big box stores, said meat and dairy alternatives are not having trouble competing with Big Food for precious retail shelf space. “Retailers are urgently looking for new products,” he said.</p><p>Time was when Nestlé or Unilever would have simply acquired Oatly, just as they have gobbled up hundreds of other brands. But they would have trouble justifying the audacious $10 billion price that Oatly has set as the benchmark for its stock offering.</p><p>Nestlé’s answer was to develop its own milk substitute, Wunda, which the company unveiled this month and plans to sell initially in France, Portugal and the Netherlands. Made from a variety of yellow peas, Wunda is higher in protein than oat milk. Some nutritionists have said that oat milk and other dairy alternatives are a poor substitute for cow’s milk because they don’t have nearly as much protein.</p><p>Stefan Palzer, the chief technology officer at Nestlé, took issue with those who say a big company can’t move as fast as a bunch of Swedish foodies. A young team at Nestlé developed Wunda in nine months, including three months of market testing in Britain, Mr. Palzer said in an interview.</p><p>Nestlé was able to adapt existing production facilities to make Wunda, rather than building new factories like Oatly must do.

The items range from basic oat milk, to even ice cream and yogurt made from oat milk. According to its website, Oatly’s goal is “to make it easy for people to turn what they eat and drink into personal moments of healthy joy without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process.”</p><p>Oatly confidentially filed for its IPO back in February, then officiallyset terms of the move last week. According to multiple outlets, Oatly will offer about 84.4 million American depositary shares (ADS) at between $15 and $17 per share. In total, the Oatly IPO could reach a $10.1 billion valuation, and the firm hopes to raise $1.1 billion.</p><p>Additionally, Oatly plans to trade on the Nasdaq exchange under the ticker “OTLY” and had nine lead underwriters for its IPO.</p><p><b>The majority shareholder</b></p><p>Oatly was founded in 1994 by Rickard Oste, a professor of food chemistry and nutrition in Sweden, and his brother Bjorn Oste. Working in Malmo, Sweden, they developed a way of processing a slurry of oats and water with enzymes to produce natural sweetness and a milk-like taste and consistency.</p><p>Oatly’s image benefited from a roster of celebrity investors, including Oprah Winfrey, Natalie Portman, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation company, and Howard Schultz, the former chief executive of Starbucks. All have some connection to the plant-based or healthy living movement.</p><p>The majority shareholder is a partnership between an entity owned by the Chinese government and Verlinvest, a Belgian firm that invests some of the wealth of the families that control the Anheuser-Busch InBev beer empire. Blackstone, the giant private equity firm, owns a little less than 8 percent in Oatly.</p><p>The company’s growth went into overdrive after Verlinvest bought a majority stake in 2016 via a joint venture with China Resources, a state-owned conglomerate with vast holdings in cement, power generation, coal mining, beer, retailing and many other industries. The new financing helped Oatly to expand in Europe and begin exporting to the United States and China, where many people cannot tolerate cow’s milk. China Resources’ involvement undoubtedly helped open doors in the Chinese market. Asia, primarily China, accounted for 18 percent of sales in the first quarter of 2021, and is growing at a rate of 450 percent a year, according to Oatly.</p><p>In Europe, there is growing alarm about Chinese investment in strategic industries like autos, batteries and robotics. The European Commission has begun erecting regulatory barriers to companies with financial links to the Chinese government. But so far no one has expressed fear that China will dominate the world’s supply of oat milk.</p><p>Just in case, Oatly’s prospectus gives it the option of listing in Hong Kong if the foreign ownership becomes a problem in the United States.</p><p><b>The Key Markets</b></p><p>Oat milk is part of a larger trend toward food that mimics animal products. So-called food tech companies like Beyond Meat have raised a little more than $18 billion in venture funding, according to PitchBook, which tracks the industry. Plant-based dairy, which in the United States includes brands like Ripple (made from peas) and Mooala (bananas), raised $640 million last year, more than double the amount raised a year earlier.</p><p>According to the Plant Based Foods Association and Good Foods Institute, plant-based-food sales reached $7 billion in 2020.</p><p>Consumer Insights data quoted in the prospectus says the plant-based milk category will grow 20% to 25% over the next three years.</p><p>Oatly is focused on its role in helping to transform the food industry in order to be better for the environment and meet the health needs of its customers. The company points out that substituting a cup of Oatly for a cup of cow’s milk reduces greenhouse gas emissions, land use and energy consumption.</p><p>Tastewise, which provides food and beverage data and intelligence, said in a December 2020 report that “plant-based everything” will be one of the top 10 U.S. trends for this year.</p><p>Oatly’s key markets are Sweden, Germany and the U.K., though its products were available in 60,000 retail stores and 32,200 coffee shops around the world as of December 31, 2020. Among the places where customers can find Oatly is Starbucks, where demand was so high there was a shortage soon after the coffee chain introduced beverages made with the item.</p><p>Oatly arrived in the U.S. in 2017. The company says it “focused on targeting coffee’s tastemakers, professional baristas at independent coffee shops” as a way to enter the market.”</p><p>By December 31, 2020, Oatly was in more than 7,500 retail shops and 10,000 coffee shops in the U.S. Revenue in 2020 totaled $100 million in the U.S.</p><p>Oatly can also be found in 11,000 coffee and tea shops in China, and at more than 6,000 retail and specialty shops across the country, including thousands of Starbucks locations.</p><p><b>Loss of Warning</b></p><p>In 2020, Oatly had revenue of $421.4 million, up from $204.0 million the year before. However, the company reported a loss of $60.4 million “reflecting our continued investment in production, brand awareness, new markets and product development,” the prospectus said.</p><p>Oatly is classified as an “emerging growth company,” which means it does not have to make the same disclosures required of bigger public companies. A business remains an emerging growth company until it reaches a number of milestones, including annual revenue of more than $1.07 billion.</p><p>Oatly warns that it has reported losses over the last “several” years and expects operating and capital expenses to rise “substantially.”</p><p>“Our expansion efforts may take longer or prove more expensive than we anticipate, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we may not succeed in increasing our revenue and margins sufficiently to offset the anticipated higher expenses,” the company said in its prospectus.</p><p>“We incur significant expenses in researching and developing our innovative products, building out our production and manufacturing facilities, obtaining and storing ingredients and other products and marketing the products we offer.”</p><p><b>The dairy market is highly competitive</b></p><p>Oatly acknowledged in its offering documents that it faces fierce competition, including from “multinational corporations with substantially greater resources and operations than us.”</p><p>That would include British consumer goods maker Unilever, which said last year that it aims to generate revenue of one billion euros, or $1.2 billion, by 2027 from plant-based substitutes for meat and dairy, for example Hellmann’s vegan mayonnaise or Ben &amp; Jerry’s dairy-free ice cream. Unilever has not announced plans for a milk substitute.</p><p>Some industry analysts argue that Oatly’s size gives it an edge over these giants, allowing it to be more innovative than a corporate behemoth. Food start-ups are “younger and faster,” said Patrick Müller-Sarmiento, head of the consumer goods and retail practice at Roland Berger, a German consulting firm.</p><p>The established food giants also have a tougher time than newcomers convincing consumers that they are sincere about saving the planet, an important part of the oat milk sales pitch.</p><p>Mr. Müller-Sarmiento, the former chief executive of Real, a German chain of big box stores, said meat and dairy alternatives are not having trouble competing with Big Food for precious retail shelf space. “Retailers are urgently looking for new products,” he said.</p><p>Time was when Nestlé or Unilever would have simply acquired Oatly, just as they have gobbled up hundreds of other brands. But they would have trouble justifying the audacious $10 billion price that Oatly has set as the benchmark for its stock offering.</p><p>Nestlé’s answer was to develop its own milk substitute, Wunda, which the company unveiled this month and plans to sell initially in France, Portugal and the Netherlands. Made from a variety of yellow peas, Wunda is higher in protein than oat milk. Some nutritionists have said that oat milk and other dairy alternatives are a poor substitute for cow’s milk because they don’t have nearly as much protein.</p><p>Stefan Palzer, the chief technology officer at Nestlé, took issue with those who say a big company can’t move as fast as a bunch of Swedish foodies. A young team at Nestlé developed Wunda in nine months, including three months of market testing in Britain, Mr. Palzer said in an interview.</p><p>Nestlé was able to adapt existing production facilities to make Wunda, rather than building new factories like Oatly must do.

Fuel shortages resulting from the attack caused panic in parts of the country, with residents lining up at the pump, causing gas prices to spike.</p>\n<p>Long lines, high gas prices and short tempers are frustrations that electric vehicle owners like Kathleen Biggins are glad they don't have to deal with.</p>\n<p>\"My son noted that 'Mom, we have your car. We don't need to be so worried,'\" she told CBS News meteorologist and climate specialist Jeff Berardelli.</p>\n<p>Biggins said she feels secure as she watched the gas shortage unfold across the country and watched the lines at gas stations get longer.</p>\n<p>\"I feel much more secure, that I have control, right, in my own home of powering up my car and that I am not at the vagaries of the oil and gas market,\" she said.</p>\n<p>For the 99% who are not driving electric vehicles, the spike in fuel demand pushed prices up across the country. But with the average sticker price on an electric car $19,000 higher than a gas-powered vehicle, many do not see it as aviable option.</p>\n<p>Biggins, however, said the investment pays off long-term.</p>\n<p>\"In general, it's much cheaper to fuel your car to electricity than it is to gas,\" she said.</p>\n<p>According to aConsumer Reports analysisof EVs, fuel savings alone can be more than $4,700 over the first seven years of ownership. With only 20 moving parts in an electric car, maintenancesavingsover the lifetime of the vehicle can range from $6,000 to $10,000.</p>\n<p>Dr. Jeffrey Sachs, an economist and sustainability expert, said some direct tax rebates or other subsidies could help with upfront costs.</p>\n<p>He said the savings will really mount as the industry scales up, and he expects the total cost of EVs to fall below gas-powered vehicles in just two to three years.</p>\n<p>\"This cost decline that's been underway is going to continue and the fact of the matter is we're not going to have that much choice because all of the manufacturing companies are now looking at Tesla and say, 'Hey, we're going that way, too,\" he said.</p>\n<p>The necessary shift was further highlighted this past week from a national security perspective. The kind of hack that happened to the Colonial Pipeline could also happen to an electrical grid.</p>\n<p>\"This isn't a physical hack of a pipeline; it's a digital hack. And so there really are concerns, no matter what kind of vehicles and what kind of energy system,\" Sachs said. \"But what I do think is true is that the national security of a renewable energy system, which is home-based, renewable energy, not dependent on the vagaries of international markets, Middle East wars, Middle East boycotts, and geopolitical crises — that's going to be a lot better in the future.\"</p>\n<p>There's a policy promise on the horizon.

Fuel shortages resulting from the attack caused panic in parts of the country, with residents lining up at the pump, causing gas prices to spike.\nLong lines, high gas prices and short tempers are frustrations that electric vehicle owners like Kathleen Biggins are glad they don't have to deal with.\n\"My son noted that 'Mom, we have your car. We don't need to be so worried,'\" she told CBS News meteorologist and climate specialist Jeff Berardelli.\nBiggins said she feels secure as she watched the gas shortage unfold across the country and watched the lines at gas stations get longer.\n\"I feel much more secure, that I have control, right, in my own home of powering up my car and that I am not at the vagaries of the oil and gas market,\" she said.\nFor the 99% who are not driving electric vehicles, the spike in fuel demand pushed prices up across the country. But with the average sticker price on an electric car $19,000 higher than a gas-powered vehicle, many do not see it as aviable option.\nBiggins, however, said the investment pays off long-term.\n\"In general, it's much cheaper to fuel your car to electricity than it is to gas,\" she said.\nAccording to aConsumer Reports analysisof EVs, fuel savings alone can be more than $4,700 over the first seven years of ownership. With only 20 moving parts in an electric car, maintenancesavingsover the lifetime of the vehicle can range from $6,000 to $10,000.\nDr. Jeffrey Sachs, an economist and sustainability expert, said some direct tax rebates or other subsidies could help with upfront costs.\nHe said the savings will really mount as the industry scales up, and he expects the total cost of EVs to fall below gas-powered vehicles in just two to three years.\n\"This cost decline that's been underway is going to continue and the fact of the matter is we're not going to have that much choice because all of the manufacturing companies are now looking at Tesla and say, 'Hey, we're going that way, too,\" he said.\nThe necessary shift was further highlighted this past week from a national security perspective. The kind of hack that happened to the Colonial Pipeline could also happen to an electrical grid.\n\"This isn't a physical hack of a pipeline; it's a digital hack. And so there really are concerns, no matter what kind of vehicles and what kind of energy system,\" Sachs said. \"But what I do think is true is that the national security of a renewable energy system, which is home-based, renewable energy, not dependent on the vagaries of international markets, Middle East wars, Middle East boycotts, and geopolitical crises — that's going to be a lot better in the future.\"\nThere's a policy promise on the horizon. The Biden administration pledged $15 billion to build 500,000 charging stations nationwide, and the number of EV models available in the U.S. is expected to triple in the next three years.\n\"Even if the costs were a disadvantage, we'd have to do it because of climate risks. Thank goodness it's going to be a great bargain anyway; I think it's pretty much a no-brainer.\"\nIn just the last 10 years, battery prices have dropped by as much as 90%. They're dropping so fast that analysts say the purchase price of EVs will fall below that of gas-powered vehicles in the next two to four years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":145,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":196215521,"gmtCreate":1621056441563,"gmtModify":1704352564182,"author":{"id":"3578445262260978","authorId":"3578445262260978","name":"BChew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4e3097563de7fcf194cd187e0dafca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578445262260978","authorIdStr":"3578445262260978"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting!&nbsp;","listText":"Interesting!&nbsp;","text":"Interesting!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/196215521","repostId":"1163454382","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1163454382","pubTimestamp":1621004581,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1163454382?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-14 23:03","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why AMC Entertainment Stock Jumped Again Friday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1163454382","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"AMC investors have reason for more optimism on the heels of another capital raise.Yesterday's jump came after the company announcedit raised $428 million.

However, Pfizer has said that public health considerations outside of the clinical trials might be taken into consideration.\"Our study demonstrates that peak antibody responses after the second Pfizer vaccine are markedly enhanced in older people when this is delayed to 12 weeks,\" Helen Parry, an author of the study based at the University of Birmingham, said.Britain began rolling out Pfizer's vaccine before changing dosing policy, meaning a small number of people who got the shot early received the second shot three weeks later.The study, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, looked at 175 people aged between 80 and 99, and found that extending the second dose interval to 12 weeks increased the peak antibody response 3.5-fold compared to those who had it at three weeks.Antibodies are one part of the immune system, and vaccines also generate T cells. The peak T cell responses were higher in the group with a 3 week interval between doses, and the authors warned against drawing conclusions on how protected individuals were based on which dosing schedule they received.However, taken with data showing good protection against hospitalisation and death from just one shot of Pfizer vaccine, Public Health England said the study was further supportive evidence in favour of Britain's approach.\"The approach taken in the UK for delaying that second dose has really paid off,\" Gayatri Amirthalingam, Consultant Epidemiologist at Public Health England, told reporters.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":311,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":119147556,"gmtCreate":1622531584275,"gmtModify":1704185730760,"author":{"id":"3578445262260978","authorId":"3578445262260978","name":"BChew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4e3097563de7fcf194cd187e0dafca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578445262260978","idStr":"3578445262260978"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting&nbsp;","listText":"Interesting&nbsp;","text":"Interesting","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":6,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/119147556","repostId":"1140439179","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1140439179","pubTimestamp":1622530918,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1140439179?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-01 15:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba: Future Growth Plus Discounted Price May Outweigh Regulatory Risk","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1140439179","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"SummarySuspended Ant Group IPO, Jack Ma's disappearance, and regulatory concerns have forced Alibaba","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>Suspended Ant Group IPO, Jack Ma's disappearance, and regulatory concerns have forced Alibaba’s stock price ~-30% off highs.</li><li>I believe Alibaba is trading at massive discounts on a relative basis.</li><li>Future growth runways coupled with discounted buying opportunities could create a valuable investment opportunity.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/76c35f5fb7c6d19825e9a4c876f7522c\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1025\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Photo by maybefalse/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images</span></p><p><b>Intro</b></p><p>Currently, in a market full of elevated asset prices it can be difficult for investors to find underappreciated securities on a valuation basis. After months of negative headlines and regulatory issues, I believe Alibaba (BABA) is being underappreciated through the lens of both valuation and growth potential. While investors may be fearful of regulatory risks, management stability, and financial legitimacy, BABA’s growth runway coupled with discounted prices could potentially produce a valuable investment opportunity.</p><p><b>Why I Think it is Cheap</b></p><p>After Chinese regulators suspended the highly anticipated IPO of Ant Group due to issues surrounding changes in the financial regulatory environment and how the company was not meeting disclosure requirements, BABA’s share price began seeing initial selling pressure. BABA saw an -8.13% dip in share price after the IPO was delayed. Given that BABA has a&nbsp;33% equity interestin the company, the canceled listing of Ant Group caused obvious headwinds. Shortly after the canceled IPO, Jack Ma publicly denounced China’s financial regulators on stage at a conference in Shanghai. Adding to the mountain of negative headlines, the outspoken founder went missing shortly after this stint which was followed by a further decline in share price. Weeks after Ma’s criticisms regarding China’s regulators, China came crashing down hard on Alibaba with an antitrust investigation based on monopolistic concerns. BABA’s share price began to see deep selling pressure in late December with the U.S.-listed ADR falling over -13% on Christmas Eve.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67f6cf5346933ea265d9c4ba262c3880\" tg-width=\"624\" tg-height=\"356\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: TradingView</span></p><p>After a slew of negative press, financial and regulatory headwinds, BABA has fallen ~-30% from ATH where it currently sits just over $210 a share. With share price declining and earnings continuing to grow rapidly, Alibaba has seen valuation multiples contract to levels not seen since shortly after their NYSE listing in 2015.</p><p><b>How Cheap is it on a Relative Basis?</b></p><p>Using the next twelve months forward earnings estimates, \"NTM,\" we begin to quantify how discounted BABA is through valuation multiples. Below are two charts showing BABA at the very bottom of its EV/S and P/E channels. Each chart compares the NTM multiple relative to the earnings denominator (NTM Revs &amp; NTM EPS respectively).</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9e4fecfcf6207a0c65a113e167696067\" tg-width=\"624\" tg-height=\"355\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1b0ea99d299e7aaa2a5c793434e2c05d\" tg-width=\"624\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Created by author using data from Koyfin</span></p><p>Since BABA listed on the NYSE, their EV/S multiple has contracted over time as revenue growth has progressed rapidly; P/E typically has traded in a range of 20x – 35x NTM EPS estimates. Due to hyper EPS growth in the last few years, coupled with the short-term price downturn; Alibaba’s NTM P/E multiple has contracted to the very bottom of its historical channel (~20x NTM P/E).</p><p>Next, I used NTM forecasts for both revenue and EPS, coupled with bull, bear, and base case NTM multiples to derive my case-specific price targets. Price targets using EPS and P/E were calculated by multiplying expected NTM EPS by expected NTM P/E. Price targets using revenue and EV/S were calculated by multiplying expected NTM rev by expected NTM EV/S, subtracting trailing twelve months \"TTM\" net debt (-$52,797.3M) and dividing by TTM diluted shares outstanding (2,750M).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a262edad6a9272298ad31bdc8f3e1fc5\" tg-width=\"906\" tg-height=\"666\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Created by author using data from Koyfin</span></p><p>After taking the median bull and bear price targets, I created a tactical risk/reward chart to determine BABA’s margin of safety at current price levels.

While the stock seems to be cheap on a relative basis, I also believe growth on the top and bottom lines is imminent.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8af3a56b016bed164ca19ff7282a581a\" tg-width=\"284\" tg-height=\"337\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source:Alibaba Investor Presentation</span></p><p>After their Q1 release, BABA reported 41% YoY growth on the top-line driven by their leading core commerce segment alongside the fast-growing cloud segment. Coming off 35% YoY growth in 2020, being able to deliver a 41% topline increase is incredible for the year following. Given the fact COVID-19related online growth was reflected in early 2020 results, I find it very feasiblefor core commerce tailwinds to continue as growth persisted, and expanded, the following year.</p><p>Alongside general e-commerce tailwinds, China’s middle-class growth could support sales for a mega-cap commerce player like Alibaba. “China already makes up the&nbsp;largest middle-class consumption&nbsp;market segment in the world” asChinese middle-class consumers were on track to spend over $7.3 Trillion in 2020, roughly 55% higher than the United States middle-class at $4.7 Trillion. At current levels, less than one-third of China’s total population lies within their middle-class, containing roughly 400 million people. Population expectations for the Chinese middle-class are expected to be 1.2 Billion people in 2027, a 17% CAGR. Coupling the sheer class population growth with a forecasted income CAGR of 3% stacked on top, BABA is potentially looking at a 20% built-in core commerce CAGR over the next 7 years based on these estimates.</p><p>Lastly, I believe the digital transformation acceleration happening around the globewill be an excellent growth catalyst for the company moving forward. Like Amazon, Alibaba constructed its cloud base on logistical support for the commerce/delivery giant. Now that the infrastructure is built, they can grow the cloud as an operating segment, separate from core commerce, and outsource to major customers.</p><p>Below you can see previous YoY growth on three months ended and annual basis.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d2844a5c25507131d3bb1acc5e223c71\" tg-width=\"624\" tg-height=\"273\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Alibaba Investor Presentation</span></p><p>While Alibaba Cloud only makes up 8% of total revenues, in the future I believe this segment will be a larger contributor to the total top-line as domestic and international adoption grows. Couple the cloud with core commerce expansion propelled forward by a rapidly increasing middle-class and BABA's growth runway is seemingly attractive for short and long-term investors.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/253a50e7e7e1960b19d0ca68e2fd0360\" tg-width=\"624\" tg-height=\"462\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Source: Alibaba Investor Presentation</span></p><p><b>Risks</b></p><p>The reason this opportunity exists isn't because of a systematic drawdown or a major global catalyst suppressing stock prices, there are clear idiosyncratic risks to investing in Alibaba. The major risks of a BABA investment were highlighted clearly over the past 7 months. Starting with the Ant IPO suspension, BABA investors became concerned not just with the fin-tech company exposure, but also began questioning the financial legitimacy of BABA itself. To make things worse, the outspoken billionaire founder denounced the Chinese regulators in a very public fashion. Obviously, China didn't like this and launched the full-fledged antitrust investigation into Alibaba. The regulatory risk is my biggest concern while investing in BABA. At the end of the day, I've only ever lived in the United States and am no expert on Chinese foreign policy. I want to make clear these regulatory risks are very real for any mega-cap company but potentially more so for those internationally. As an investor, it's very important to run through all the potential risks to a company before investing and only allocate capital if you believe the potential reward outweighs the risks accounted for.</p><p><b>Summary</b></p><p>In a short-term view, Alibaba has an excellent catalyst with the 6.18 sale. It is their first major sale since COVID, and it lasts from May 24th – June 20th. While sales like these are common annually and may have an extremely minimal effect on stock price, the positive sentiment generated could be a good turning point for BABA. Based on a long-term approach, I believe Alibaba will continue to be a massive global leader and continue to dominate Chinese e-commerce even in the wake of regulatory risk. With a rapidly growing middle-class and a digital transformation acceleration, I think core commerce and Alibaba cloud will continue driving growth for the company. After paying off the fine imposed I think much of the regulatory risk is behind them now. As future earnings growth has the potential to outweigh any regulatory concerns, BABA is in the making be an excellent investment opportunity, especially at deeply discounted valuations.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Alibaba: Future Growth Plus Discounted Price May Outweigh Regulatory Risk</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\">\nAlibaba: Future Growth Plus Discounted Price May Outweigh Regulatory Risk\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-01 15:01 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4432297-alibaba-future-growth-plus-discounted-price-may-outweigh-regulatory-risk><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummarySuspended Ant Group IPO, Jack Ma's disappearance, and regulatory concerns have forced Alibaba’s stock price ~-30% off highs.I believe Alibaba is trading at massive discounts on a relative basis...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4432297-alibaba-future-growth-plus-discounted-price-may-outweigh-regulatory-risk\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"09988":"阿里巴巴-W","BABA":"阿里巴巴"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4432297-alibaba-future-growth-plus-discounted-price-may-outweigh-regulatory-risk","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1140439179","content_text":"SummarySuspended Ant Group IPO, Jack Ma's disappearance, and regulatory concerns have forced Alibaba’s stock price ~-30% off highs.I believe Alibaba is trading at massive discounts on a relative basis.Future growth runways coupled with discounted buying opportunities could create a valuable investment opportunity.Photo by maybefalse/iStock Unreleased via Getty ImagesIntroCurrently, in a market full of elevated asset prices it can be difficult for investors to find underappreciated securities on a valuation basis.

While sales like these are common annually and may have an extremely minimal effect on stock price, the positive sentiment generated could be a good turning point for BABA. Based on a long-term approach, I believe Alibaba will continue to be a massive global leader and continue to dominate Chinese e-commerce even in the wake of regulatory risk. With a rapidly growing middle-class and a digital transformation acceleration, I think core commerce and Alibaba cloud will continue driving growth for the company. After paying off the fine imposed I think much of the regulatory risk is behind them now. As future earnings growth has the potential to outweigh any regulatory concerns, BABA is in the making be an excellent investment opportunity, especially at deeply discounted valuations.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":752,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":898000072,"gmtCreate":1628437578296,"gmtModify":1703506235991,"author":{"id":"3578445262260978","authorId":"3578445262260978","name":"BChew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4e3097563de7fcf194cd187e0dafca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578445262260978","idStr":"3578445262260978"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"555","listText":"555","text":"555","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":6,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/898000072","repostId":"891133279","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":891133279,"gmtCreate":1628346489691,"gmtModify":1703505288894,"author":{"id":"3578437900701319","authorId":"3578437900701319","name":"keldy2114","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578437900701319","idStr":"3578437900701319"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a

Copper price has fallen more than 10% from its record high, dipping into correction territory on Tuesday.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":445,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":110528182,"gmtCreate":1622470592646,"gmtModify":1704184877493,"author":{"id":"3578445262260978","authorId":"3578445262260978","name":"BChew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4e3097563de7fcf194cd187e0dafca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578445262260978","idStr":"3578445262260978"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow","listText":"Wow","text":"Wow","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/110528182","repostId":"1170972530","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":506,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":134963438,"gmtCreate":1622201207524,"gmtModify":1704181358048,"author":{"id":"3578445262260978","authorId":"3578445262260978","name":"BChew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4e3097563de7fcf194cd187e0dafca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578445262260978","idStr":"3578445262260978"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"With travelling still on the low.

The new financing helped Oatly to expand in Europe and begin exporting to the United States and China, where many people cannot tolerate cow’s milk.

Among the places where customers can find Oatly is Starbucks, where demand was so high there was a shortage soon after the coffee chain introduced beverages made with the item.</p><p>Oatly arrived in the U.S. in 2017. The company says it “focused on targeting coffee’s tastemakers, professional baristas at independent coffee shops” as a way to enter the market.”</p><p>By December 31, 2020, Oatly was in more than 7,500 retail shops and 10,000 coffee shops in the U.S. Revenue in 2020 totaled $100 million in the U.S.</p><p>Oatly can also be found in 11,000 coffee and tea shops in China, and at more than 6,000 retail and specialty shops across the country, including thousands of Starbucks locations.</p><p><b>Loss of Warning</b></p><p>In 2020, Oatly had revenue of $421.4 million, up from $204.0 million the year before. However, the company reported a loss of $60.4 million “reflecting our continued investment in production, brand awareness, new markets and product development,” the prospectus said.</p><p>Oatly is classified as an “emerging growth company,” which means it does not have to make the same disclosures required of bigger public companies. A business remains an emerging growth company until it reaches a number of milestones, including annual revenue of more than $1.07 billion.</p><p>Oatly warns that it has reported losses over the last “several” years and expects operating and capital expenses to rise “substantially.”</p><p>“Our expansion efforts may take longer or prove more expensive than we anticipate, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we may not succeed in increasing our revenue and margins sufficiently to offset the anticipated higher expenses,” the company said in its prospectus.</p><p>“We incur significant expenses in researching and developing our innovative products, building out our production and manufacturing facilities, obtaining and storing ingredients and other products and marketing the products we offer.”</p><p><b>The dairy market is highly competitive</b></p><p>Oatly acknowledged in its offering documents that it faces fierce competition, including from “multinational corporations with substantially greater resources and operations than us.”</p><p>That would include British consumer goods maker Unilever, which said last year that it aims to generate revenue of one billion euros, or $1.2 billion, by 2027 from plant-based substitutes for meat and dairy, for example Hellmann’s vegan mayonnaise or Ben &amp; Jerry’s dairy-free ice cream. Unilever has not announced plans for a milk substitute.</p><p>Some industry analysts argue that Oatly’s size gives it an edge over these giants, allowing it to be more innovative than a corporate behemoth. Food start-ups are “younger and faster,” said Patrick Müller-Sarmiento, head of the consumer goods and retail practice at Roland Berger, a German consulting firm.</p><p>The established food giants also have a tougher time than newcomers convincing consumers that they are sincere about saving the planet, an important part of the oat milk sales pitch.</p><p>Mr. Müller-Sarmiento, the former chief executive of Real, a German chain of big box stores, said meat and dairy alternatives are not having trouble competing with Big Food for precious retail shelf space. “Retailers are urgently looking for new products,” he said.</p><p>Time was when Nestlé or Unilever would have simply acquired Oatly, just as they have gobbled up hundreds of other brands. But they would have trouble justifying the audacious $10 billion price that Oatly has set as the benchmark for its stock offering.</p><p>Nestlé’s answer was to develop its own milk substitute, Wunda, which the company unveiled this month and plans to sell initially in France, Portugal and the Netherlands. Made from a variety of yellow peas, Wunda is higher in protein than oat milk. Some nutritionists have said that oat milk and other dairy alternatives are a poor substitute for cow’s milk because they don’t have nearly as much protein.</p><p>Stefan Palzer, the chief technology officer at Nestlé, took issue with those who say a big company can’t move as fast as a bunch of Swedish foodies. A young team at Nestlé developed Wunda in nine months, including three months of market testing in Britain, Mr. Palzer said in an interview.</p><p>Nestlé was able to adapt existing production facilities to make Wunda, rather than building new factories like Oatly must do. The company already had plant scientists who could identify the best kind of pea and food safety experts who could navigate the regulatory approval process, Mr. Palzer said.</p><p>The Wunda developers “could have any expert they wanted to have on the project,” Mr. Palzer said. “That enabled them to move at this speed.”</p><p>Nestlé already has dairy-free versions of Nesquik drinks and Häagen-Dazs ice cream and sells coffee creamers made from a blend of oat and almond milk using the Starbucks brand. The company is in a major push to develop substitutes for almost any kind of animal product. The next frontier: fish. Nestlé has begun selling a tuna substitute called Vuna and is working on scallops.</p><p>“It’s a great opportunity to combine health with sustainability,” Mr. Palzer said of plant-based alternatives to milk and meat. “It’s also a great growth opportunity.”</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>Oat Milk Company Oatly to IPO -- Here's What Investors Need to Know</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\">\nOat Milk Company Oatly to IPO -- Here's What Investors Need to Know\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<a class=\"head\" href=\"https://laohu8.com/wemedia/1079075236\">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Tiger Newspress </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2021-05-19 14:07</p>\n</div>\n\n</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>The largest oat milk company in the world, Oatly, could be going public this weekon Thursday.</p><p>The Swedish firm is know for its dairy-alternative products made from oats.

The items range from basic oat milk, to even ice cream and yogurt made from oat milk. According to its website, Oatly’s goal is “to make it easy for people to turn what they eat and drink into personal moments of healthy joy without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process.”Oatly confidentially filed for its IPO back in February, then officiallyset terms of the move last week. According to multiple outlets, Oatly will offer about 84.4 million American depositary shares (ADS) at between $15 and $17 per share. In total, the Oatly IPO could reach a $10.1 billion valuation, and the firm hopes to raise $1.1 billion.Additionally, Oatly plans to trade on the Nasdaq exchange under the ticker “OTLY” and had nine lead underwriters for its IPO.The majority shareholderOatly was founded in 1994 by Rickard Oste, a professor of food chemistry and nutrition in Sweden, and his brother Bjorn Oste. Working in Malmo, Sweden, they developed a way of processing a slurry of oats and water with enzymes to produce natural sweetness and a milk-like taste and consistency.Oatly’s image benefited from a roster of celebrity investors, including Oprah Winfrey, Natalie Portman, Jay-Z’s Roc Nation company, and Howard Schultz, the former chief executive of Starbucks. All have some connection to the plant-based or healthy living movement.The majority shareholder is a partnership between an entity owned by the Chinese government and Verlinvest, a Belgian firm that invests some of the wealth of the families that control the Anheuser-Busch InBev beer empire. Blackstone, the giant private equity firm, owns a little less than 8 percent in Oatly.The company’s growth went into overdrive after Verlinvest bought a majority stake in 2016 via a joint venture with China Resources, a state-owned conglomerate with vast holdings in cement, power generation, coal mining, beer, retailing and many other industries. The new financing helped Oatly to expand in Europe and begin exporting to the United States and China, where many people cannot tolerate cow’s milk. China Resources’ involvement undoubtedly helped open doors in the Chinese market. Asia, primarily China, accounted for 18 percent of sales in the first quarter of 2021, and is growing at a rate of 450 percent a year, according to Oatly.In Europe, there is growing alarm about Chinese investment in strategic industries like autos, batteries and robotics. The European Commission has begun erecting regulatory barriers to companies with financial links to the Chinese government. But so far no one has expressed fear that China will dominate the world’s supply of oat milk.Just in case, Oatly’s prospectus gives it the option of listing in Hong Kong if the foreign ownership becomes a problem in the United States.The Key MarketsOat milk is part of a larger trend toward food that mimics animal products. So-called food tech companies like Beyond Meat have raised a little more than $18 billion in venture funding, according to PitchBook, which tracks the industry. Plant-based dairy, which in the United States includes brands like Ripple (made from peas) and Mooala (bananas), raised $640 million last year, more than double the amount raised a year earlier.According to the Plant Based Foods Association and Good Foods Institute, plant-based-food sales reached $7 billion in 2020.Consumer Insights data quoted in the prospectus says the plant-based milk category will grow 20% to 25% over the next three years.Oatly is focused on its role in helping to transform the food industry in order to be better for the environment and meet the health needs of its customers. The company points out that substituting a cup of Oatly for a cup of cow’s milk reduces greenhouse gas emissions, land use and energy consumption.Tastewise, which provides food and beverage data and intelligence, said in a December 2020 report that “plant-based everything” will be one of the top 10 U.S. trends for this year.Oatly’s key markets are Sweden, Germany and the U.K., though its products were available in 60,000 retail stores and 32,200 coffee shops around the world as of December 31, 2020. Among the places where customers can find Oatly is Starbucks, where demand was so high there was a shortage soon after the coffee chain introduced beverages made with the item.Oatly arrived in the U.S. in 2017. The company says it “focused on targeting coffee’s tastemakers, professional baristas at independent coffee shops” as a way to enter the market.”By December 31, 2020, Oatly was in more than 7,500 retail shops and 10,000 coffee shops in the U.S. Revenue in 2020 totaled $100 million in the U.S.Oatly can also be found in 11,000 coffee and tea shops in China, and at more than 6,000 retail and specialty shops across the country, including thousands of Starbucks locations.Loss of WarningIn 2020, Oatly had revenue of $421.4 million, up from $204.0 million the year before. However, the company reported a loss of $60.4 million “reflecting our continued investment in production, brand awareness, new markets and product development,” the prospectus said.Oatly is classified as an “emerging growth company,” which means it does not have to make the same disclosures required of bigger public companies. A business remains an emerging growth company until it reaches a number of milestones, including annual revenue of more than $1.07 billion.Oatly warns that it has reported losses over the last “several” years and expects operating and capital expenses to rise “substantially.”“Our expansion efforts may take longer or prove more expensive than we anticipate, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we may not succeed in increasing our revenue and margins sufficiently to offset the anticipated higher expenses,” the company said in its prospectus.“We incur significant expenses in researching and developing our innovative products, building out our production and manufacturing facilities, obtaining and storing ingredients and other products and marketing the products we offer.”The dairy market is highly competitiveOatly acknowledged in its offering documents that it faces fierce competition, including from “multinational corporations with substantially greater resources and operations than us.”That would include British consumer goods maker Unilever, which said last year that it aims to generate revenue of one billion euros, or $1.2 billion, by 2027 from plant-based substitutes for meat and dairy, for example Hellmann’s vegan mayonnaise or Ben & Jerry’s dairy-free ice cream. Unilever has not announced plans for a milk substitute.Some industry analysts argue that Oatly’s size gives it an edge over these giants, allowing it to be more innovative than a corporate behemoth. Food start-ups are “younger and faster,” said Patrick Müller-Sarmiento, head of the consumer goods and retail practice at Roland Berger, a German consulting firm.The established food giants also have a tougher time than newcomers convincing consumers that they are sincere about saving the planet, an important part of the oat milk sales pitch.Mr. Müller-Sarmiento, the former chief executive of Real, a German chain of big box stores, said meat and dairy alternatives are not having trouble competing with Big Food for precious retail shelf space. “Retailers are urgently looking for new products,” he said.Time was when Nestlé or Unilever would have simply acquired Oatly, just as they have gobbled up hundreds of other brands.

But for Airbnb, which relies on people to open their homes to guests, the company will need to ramp up its number of hosts instead of building out more real estate or adding flights to meet demand.\nIt’s a similar problem faced by other companies in the gig economy likeUber, which recently announced a$250 million stimulusin an effort to bring more drivers to its platform.\n“As vaccination rates increase in the United States, we are observing that consumer demand for Mobility is recovering faster than driver availability, and consumer demand for Delivery continues to exceed courier availability,”Uber saidin a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.\nChesky said Airbnb isn’t likely to offer “a lot of incentives” to bring new hosts on board since there’s already a huge amount of demand for service.\n“I think that all we have to do is just continue to tell our story of Airbnb, and the benefits of hosting. And we are seeing a lot of interest,” he said.\nAs part of that, Chesky said the company has done things like launch its “made possible by hosts” ad campaign. The company rolled out a number of advertisements using photographs from Airbnb guests staying in homes around the world, in an effort to create a sense of nostalgia.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":65,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":139796172,"gmtCreate":1621655173496,"gmtModify":1704361128321,"author":{"id":"3578445262260978","authorId":"3578445262260978","name":"BChew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4e3097563de7fcf194cd187e0dafca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578445262260978","idStr":"3578445262260978"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yeshhhhhh","listText":"Yeshhhhhh","text":"Yeshhhhhh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/139796172","repostId":"1111747453","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1111747453","pubTimestamp":1621609858,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1111747453?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-21 23:10","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla’s New Plaid Model Is Ready.

It had marketed the shares at HK$39.36 to HK$43.36 apiece. An external representative for the company didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.</p><p>The JD.com unit’s debut next week will test the waters for investor demand in Hong Kong’s IPO market, which has cooled because of concerns over rising inflation and weakness in global stocks. It is the second-largest listing in the city this year, after short video company Kuaishou Technology’s $6.2 billion float in February.</p><p>While first-time share sales in the Asian financial hub have had their best start to the year on record, with $20.5 billion raised so far, according to data compiled by Bloomberg, investor appetite for new stock offerings has petered out recently, with the massive first-day pops seen at the beginning of the year all but gone. For example, SF Real Estate Investment Trust fell 16.5% in its debut on the Hong Kong bourse Monday.</p><p>JD Logistics attracted seven cornerstone investors to its offering, who agreed to subscribe for about $1.53 billion of stock, including SoftBank Vision Fund, Temasek Holdings Pte, Blackstone Group Inc. and Tiger Global.</p><p>Created in 2007 and set up as a standalone unit under JD.com a decade later, JD Logistics’ networks include both so-called last mile and longer distance lines, as well as cold chain and bulky item networks, according to its prospectus.

While the prospects of a short squeeze fueled in part by Reddit have been a major factor in the rally, the long-term outlook of AMC remains poor.</p>\n<p><b>AMC's Short Squeeze</b></p>\n<p>Retail investors look to be preparing themselves for a second short squeeze much like the one that unfolded with GameStop (GME) in January, which also boiled over to AMC, taking it to its 52-week high above $20. It's estimated that shorts have&nbsp;lost nearly $1 billion&nbsp;combined in the two stocks during the past five trading days, with more covering needed as AMC has rallied towards $15.</p>\n<p>Options&nbsp;trading and premiums are rising on a flatter day as IV climbs on the backs of such a prospect, with calls expiring May 21 (Friday) all increasing in value, and premiums for the monthly June 18 expiration up a high degree; high volume (&gt;20k) in the May 28 $28 call, implying a 100% move, and the June 18 $40 call, implying a nearly 300% move, solidify retail's high faith in the short squeeze.</p>\n<p>AMC has started to see a decrease in its high short interest over the past three days after shares jumped above $12. Cost to borrow has fallen, with Tuesday's average at 12.34% and the max at 31.59%, while the surge in volume has led to a decrease in the DTC ratio for outstanding short positions to &lt;2. ORTEX estimates that nearly 8 million shares have been returned/covered on Tuesday.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7c5e44625531ff2a7d9ffb8ca309543a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"427\"><span>Graphic fromORTEX</span></p>\n<p>While there is potential for AMC to emulate a GameStop-esque squeeze with the current setup, the high volume creating a low DTC ratio could make the scenario happen quickly; this could lead to two things. Short covering might not have happened, and a 'truer' squeeze could still occur, as options IV looks to be expecting, or, in the case of a multi-day 'squeeze' or run (much like GameStop), shorts could find it easier to cover, thus shares could enter in a mania-like state with investors buying at extremely elevated levels in hopes of selling those shares at a higher price to others willing to buy to do the same, with little of the intended effect against the hedge funds and a higher potential for a rug-pull 'flash crash'.</p>\n<p><b>The Fundamentals of the Business Remain Poor, Even with Some Signs of a Recovery</b></p>\n<p>The short squeeze potential does offer investors the chance to make fortunes in a rapid amount of time, but the thing is, a short squeeze does not fundamentally improve nor change the underlying business. AMC has struggled during the pandemic and remains burdened with a high debt load which likely will cause quite some issues down the road. There are some signs of a recovery as vaccinations continue, allowing capacities to increase, but the revenue recovery picture is too prolonged.</p>\n<p>AMC's 13 theaters in NYC were finally&nbsp;reopened&nbsp;in early March after the state paved the way for reopening under the premises of 25% capacity or max 50 people per screen, later increased to the lesser of either 33% or 100 guests per screen.Attendance&nbsp;domestically remains down over 80% due in part to these restrictions (internationally over 97%), and higher vaccination rates and further reopening and lightening of capacity restrictions does pave the way for attendance growth. AMC is operating practically all of its domestic theaters at capacities ranging from 15% to 60%, so there remains more room for attendance figures to grow.</p>\n<p>The company sees that it is \"looking at an increasingly favorable environment for movie-going\" as these restrictions lighten alongside \"the arrival of long awaited new movie title releases.\"<i>Godzilla vs. Kong</i>'s strong box office performance points to pent-up demand for movie attendance and matinee showings, with more titles expected later in the year.</p>\n<p>Signs of pent-up demand and easing restrictions give a positive timeline for revenues to continue their recovery, as the prior two quarters' revenue amounts were near one-tenth of pre-pandemic levels. However, broader industry trends point to box office stagnation in the face of streaming content wars. Box office ticket sales, shown in the first graph below, have been on a downward trend since 2002, while box office revenues in North America, show in the second graph below, have grown at a slow pace and have actually declined since 2002 on an inflation-adjusted basis.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ae9856f5dcf6f223d9b4c25b4dcaf539\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"442\"><span>Graphic fromStatista</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/db30c09c02634e8a6a6b8128edf874a1\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"743\"><span>Graphic fromStatista</span></p>\n<p>The overall pace of revenue growth at the box office is slow, thus a recovery will likely be extremely prolonged even as restrictions ease. Streaming has played a larger role in the split between box office and at-home watching, with content on a platform like Disney+ having shorter exclusivity windows in theaters, at 45 days instead of 90. Even though AMC could be finding some higher market share domestically against competition like Cinemark (CNK) and Cineworld (OTCPK:CNNWF), the three don't yet have an answer to competition from streaming, with Disney+ and HBO Max among the main threats, with Warner Bros.debuting all new titles&nbsp;for 2021 in theaters and on HBO Max the same day.</p>\n<p>Financially, AMC continues to be burdened down by a high debt load, and faces a&nbsp;high annualized interest expense&nbsp;alongside other factors that could impact its ability to operate on a long-term horizon and raise the probability for further dilution or even Chapter 11 bankruptcy as the 2025 notes near maturity.</p>\n<p>AMC continues to dilute to raise capital, with the most recent&nbsp;43 million share offering&nbsp;raising $428 million, boosting near-term liquidity far past $1 billion with implied cash on hand around $1.2 billion. AMC also brought in over $600 million through the Odeon term loan as well as the toggle notes due in 2026. While this is an improvement to the balance sheet in terms of liquidity, high interest expenses, a wide shareholder deficit, and cash outflow for continuing operations increase probability of more dilution and raise red flags down the road.</p>\n<p>Even with the paydown in&nbsp;corporate borrowings, bringing the total down to $5.44 billion from nearly $5.7 billion in December, interest expense on these borrowings has doubled as AMC was forced to borrow at higher rates due to its fragile balance sheet. Interest expense for corporate borrowings during Q1 more than doubled from $71.3 million to $151.5 million, with $70 million in non-cash and $52.7 million in PIK interest expense.</p>\n<p>This puts AMC at an annualized rate of $600 million in interest expenses, which would leave it in a precarious position if that is the case - even if AMC can return to full strength by year-end 2022/2023, it has not shown an ability to generate that much cash from operations, reaching just $579 million in 2019. This could make it difficult to keep paying down and reducing the debt load while balancing higher interest payments each quarter. With a cash outflow north of $300 million for the quarter, a significant cash raise is likely to be needed before the end of the year. Consecutive losses of this degree through the year (likely for the remaining quarters this fiscal year) will cause a large dent to liquidity.</p>\n<p>AMC has just about 30 million shares authorized but not yet issued, so it still can some cash through at the market offerings. If a short squeeze drives the price higher, then it is much more likely that AMC will look to hold another offering to add more cash and secure a higher price per share. However, once those shares are issued, AMC's need for cash will likely be satiated through debt/notes, of which it will have to face double-digit interest rates on. Management did look to&nbsp;increase authorized share count&nbsp;by 500 million to 1.024 billion, but withdrew the proposal at the annual shareholder meeting.</p>\n<p>AMC's&nbsp;debt swap last summer&nbsp;to reduce debt and stave off bankruptcy saw the company take on a 10/12% PIK due in 2026, and the two capital raises in Q1 are at similar and higher interest rates. The&nbsp;Odeon term loan&nbsp;due in 2023 has a 10.75% rate the first year and 11.25% until maturity, while the&nbsp;PIK&nbsp;is at a 15%/17% cash/PIK rate, with the interest being solely in cash from July 2022 through maturity. Any future notes or loans are likely to be at high rates like these, so interest expense could remain elevated for multiple quarters or years until these notes start to mature. This could increase the probability of bankruptcy down the line, in 2023 or later, if AMC cannot find the cash to repay some of these non-convertible notes after years of high interest payments.</p>\n<p><b>The Bottom Line</b></p>\n<p>At the end of the day, not every investor is buying shares for the sole purpose of the short squeeze, and it's important to keep in mind that a short squeeze does not improve the fundamentals of the company (aside from cash raise potential) or the stagnation of the theater industry. While the squeeze does offer a substantial degree of returns, it could happen quickly or erode into a mania-like state and be prone to flash crashes, much like GameStop.</p>\n<p>AMC isn't the only player in the industry with a high short interest, with peer Cinemark seeing its short interest above 20%, signalling that the reason behind the shorts, i.e. more dilution driving shares lower, failure to raise capital to operate, and higher probabilities of bankruptcy, could be quite valid. However, Cinemark isn't in quite as bad a situation as AMC is financially - while it does have nearly 5x debt/cash, it does not have a shareholder deficit, nor rising interest expenses to the same degree, and 180 million more shares available to issue (~150% of total outstanding).</p>\n<p>However, the struggles across the industry during the recovery and in the face of competition from streaming do not look promising. AMC is running out of shares to issue to raise cash, and faces double-digit interest rates if it turns to notes; while it does have over $1 billion in current liquidity, that could evaporate quickly with the current cash outflow and interest expense rate. The rebound in attendance and revenues is likely to take years, while the overall industry saw declining ticket sales and bumpy box office revenues for over a decade as streaming service competition heats up. While a short squeeze has nothing to do with and no impact on the fundamentals, AMC's financial situation looks to set it up for more issues down the road, possibly including bankruptcy in a few years.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

While the prospects of a short squeeze fueled in part by Reddit have been a major factor in the rally, the long-term outlook of AMC remains poor.\nAMC's Short Squeeze\nRetail investors look to be preparing themselves for a second short squeeze much like the one that unfolded with GameStop (GME) in January, which also boiled over to AMC, taking it to its 52-week high above $20. It's estimated that shorts have lost nearly $1 billion combined in the two stocks during the past five trading days, with more covering needed as AMC has rallied towards $15.\nOptions trading and premiums are rising on a flatter day as IV climbs on the backs of such a prospect, with calls expiring May 21 (Friday) all increasing in value, and premiums for the monthly June 18 expiration up a high degree; high volume (>20k) in the May 28 $28 call, implying a 100% move, and the June 18 $40 call, implying a nearly 300% move, solidify retail's high faith in the short squeeze.\nAMC has started to see a decrease in its high short interest over the past three days after shares jumped above $12. Cost to borrow has fallen, with Tuesday's average at 12.34% and the max at 31.59%, while the surge in volume has led to a decrease in the DTC ratio for outstanding short positions to <2. ORTEX estimates that nearly 8 million shares have been returned/covered on Tuesday.\nGraphic fromORTEX\nWhile there is potential for AMC to emulate a GameStop-esque squeeze with the current setup, the high volume creating a low DTC ratio could make the scenario happen quickly; this could lead to two things. Short covering might not have happened, and a 'truer' squeeze could still occur, as options IV looks to be expecting, or, in the case of a multi-day 'squeeze' or run (much like GameStop), shorts could find it easier to cover, thus shares could enter in a mania-like state with investors buying at extremely elevated levels in hopes of selling those shares at a higher price to others willing to buy to do the same, with little of the intended effect against the hedge funds and a higher potential for a rug-pull 'flash crash'.\nThe Fundamentals of the Business Remain Poor, Even with Some Signs of a Recovery\nThe short squeeze potential does offer investors the chance to make fortunes in a rapid amount of time, but the thing is, a short squeeze does not fundamentally improve nor change the underlying business. AMC has struggled during the pandemic and remains burdened with a high debt load which likely will cause quite some issues down the road. There are some signs of a recovery as vaccinations continue, allowing capacities to increase, but the revenue recovery picture is too prolonged.\nAMC's 13 theaters in NYC were finally reopened in early March after the state paved the way for reopening under the premises of 25% capacity or max 50 people per screen, later increased to the lesser of either 33% or 100 guests per screen.Attendance domestically remains down over 80% due in part to these restrictions (internationally over 97%), and higher vaccination rates and further reopening and lightening of capacity restrictions does pave the way for attendance growth. AMC is operating practically all of its domestic theaters at capacities ranging from 15% to 60%, so there remains more room for attendance figures to grow.\nThe company sees that it is \"looking at an increasingly favorable environment for movie-going\" as these restrictions lighten alongside \"the arrival of long awaited new movie title releases.\"Godzilla vs. Kong's strong box office performance points to pent-up demand for movie attendance and matinee showings, with more titles expected later in the year.\nSigns of pent-up demand and easing restrictions give a positive timeline for revenues to continue their recovery, as the prior two quarters' revenue amounts were near one-tenth of pre-pandemic levels. However, broader industry trends point to box office stagnation in the face of streaming content wars. Box office ticket sales, shown in the first graph below, have been on a downward trend since 2002, while box office revenues in North America, show in the second graph below, have grown at a slow pace and have actually declined since 2002 on an inflation-adjusted basis.\nGraphic fromStatista\nGraphic fromStatista\nThe overall pace of revenue growth at the box office is slow, thus a recovery will likely be extremely prolonged even as restrictions ease. Streaming has played a larger role in the split between box office and at-home watching, with content on a platform like Disney+ having shorter exclusivity windows in theaters, at 45 days instead of 90. Even though AMC could be finding some higher market share domestically against competition like Cinemark (CNK) and Cineworld (OTCPK:CNNWF), the three don't yet have an answer to competition from streaming, with Disney+ and HBO Max among the main threats, with Warner Bros.debuting all new titles for 2021 in theaters and on HBO Max the same day.\nFinancially, AMC continues to be burdened down by a high debt load, and faces a high annualized interest expense alongside other factors that could impact its ability to operate on a long-term horizon and raise the probability for further dilution or even Chapter 11 bankruptcy as the 2025 notes near maturity.\nAMC continues to dilute to raise capital, with the most recent 43 million share offering raising $428 million, boosting near-term liquidity far past $1 billion with implied cash on hand around $1.2 billion. AMC also brought in over $600 million through the Odeon term loan as well as the toggle notes due in 2026. While this is an improvement to the balance sheet in terms of liquidity, high interest expenses, a wide shareholder deficit, and cash outflow for continuing operations increase probability of more dilution and raise red flags down the road.\nEven with the paydown in corporate borrowings, bringing the total down to $5.44 billion from nearly $5.7 billion in December, interest expense on these borrowings has doubled as AMC was forced to borrow at higher rates due to its fragile balance sheet. Interest expense for corporate borrowings during Q1 more than doubled from $71.3 million to $151.5 million, with $70 million in non-cash and $52.7 million in PIK interest expense.\nThis puts AMC at an annualized rate of $600 million in interest expenses, which would leave it in a precarious position if that is the case - even if AMC can return to full strength by year-end 2022/2023, it has not shown an ability to generate that much cash from operations, reaching just $579 million in 2019. This could make it difficult to keep paying down and reducing the debt load while balancing higher interest payments each quarter. With a cash outflow north of $300 million for the quarter, a significant cash raise is likely to be needed before the end of the year. Consecutive losses of this degree through the year (likely for the remaining quarters this fiscal year) will cause a large dent to liquidity.\nAMC has just about 30 million shares authorized but not yet issued, so it still can some cash through at the market offerings. If a short squeeze drives the price higher, then it is much more likely that AMC will look to hold another offering to add more cash and secure a higher price per share. However, once those shares are issued, AMC's need for cash will likely be satiated through debt/notes, of which it will have to face double-digit interest rates on. Management did look to increase authorized share count by 500 million to 1.024 billion, but withdrew the proposal at the annual shareholder meeting.\nAMC's debt swap last summer to reduce debt and stave off bankruptcy saw the company take on a 10/12% PIK due in 2026, and the two capital raises in Q1 are at similar and higher interest rates. The Odeon term loan due in 2023 has a 10.75% rate the first year and 11.25% until maturity, while the PIK is at a 15%/17% cash/PIK rate, with the interest being solely in cash from July 2022 through maturity. Any future notes or loans are likely to be at high rates like these, so interest expense could remain elevated for multiple quarters or years until these notes start to mature. This could increase the probability of bankruptcy down the line, in 2023 or later, if AMC cannot find the cash to repay some of these non-convertible notes after years of high interest payments.\nThe Bottom Line\nAt the end of the day, not every investor is buying shares for the sole purpose of the short squeeze, and it's important to keep in mind that a short squeeze does not improve the fundamentals of the company (aside from cash raise potential) or the stagnation of the theater industry. While the squeeze does offer a substantial degree of returns, it could happen quickly or erode into a mania-like state and be prone to flash crashes, much like GameStop.\nAMC isn't the only player in the industry with a high short interest, with peer Cinemark seeing its short interest above 20%, signalling that the reason behind the shorts, i.e. more dilution driving shares lower, failure to raise capital to operate, and higher probabilities of bankruptcy, could be quite valid. However, Cinemark isn't in quite as bad a situation as AMC is financially - while it does have nearly 5x debt/cash, it does not have a shareholder deficit, nor rising interest expenses to the same degree, and 180 million more shares available to issue (~150% of total outstanding).\nHowever, the struggles across the industry during the recovery and in the face of competition from streaming do not look promising. AMC is running out of shares to issue to raise cash, and faces double-digit interest rates if it turns to notes; while it does have over $1 billion in current liquidity, that could evaporate quickly with the current cash outflow and interest expense rate. The rebound in attendance and revenues is likely to take years, while the overall industry saw declining ticket sales and bumpy box office revenues for over a decade as streaming service competition heats up. While a short squeeze has nothing to do with and no impact on the fundamentals, AMC's financial situation looks to set it up for more issues down the road, possibly including bankruptcy in a few years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":259,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":198686665,"gmtCreate":1620955640257,"gmtModify":1704351063236,"author":{"id":"3578445262260978","authorId":"3578445262260978","name":"BChew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4e3097563de7fcf194cd187e0dafca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578445262260978","idStr":"3578445262260978"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting…","listText":"Interesting…","text":"Interesting…","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/198686665","repostId":"2135967525","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2135967525","pubTimestamp":1620951150,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2135967525?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-14 08:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Delayed second Pfizer Covid-19 shot produces more antibodies: Study","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2135967525","media":"The Straits Times","summary":"LONDON (REUTERS) - Pfizer's Covid-19 vaccine generates antibody responses three-and-a-half times lar","content":"<div>\n<p>LONDON (REUTERS) - Pfizer's Covid-19 vaccine generates antibody responses three-and-a-half times larger in older people when a second dose is delayed to 12 weeks after the first, a British study said....</p>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.straitstimes.com/world/europe/delayed-second-pfizer-covid-19-shot-produces-more-antibodies-study\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"straits_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

However, Pfizer has said that public health considerations outside of the clinical trials might be taken into consideration.\"Our study demonstrates that peak antibody responses after the second Pfizer vaccine are markedly enhanced in older people when this is delayed to 12 weeks,\" Helen Parry, an author of the study based at the University of Birmingham, said.Britain began rolling out Pfizer's vaccine before changing dosing policy, meaning a small number of people who got the shot early received the second shot three weeks later.The study, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, looked at 175 people aged between 80 and 99, and found that extending the second dose interval to 12 weeks increased the peak antibody response 3.5-fold compared to those who had it at three weeks.Antibodies are one part of the immune system, and vaccines also generate T cells. The peak T cell responses were higher in the group with a 3 week interval between doses, and the authors warned against drawing conclusions on how protected individuals were based on which dosing schedule they received.However, taken with data showing good protection against hospitalisation and death from just one shot of Pfizer vaccine, Public Health England said the study was further supportive evidence in favour of Britain's approach.\"The approach taken in the UK for delaying that second dose has really paid off,\" Gayatri Amirthalingam, Consultant Epidemiologist at Public Health England, told reporters.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":311,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":131330299,"gmtCreate":1621825852311,"gmtModify":1704362875171,"author":{"id":"3578445262260978","authorId":"3578445262260978","name":"BChew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4e3097563de7fcf194cd187e0dafca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578445262260978","idStr":"3578445262260978"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/131330299","repostId":"1190158785","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1190158785","pubTimestamp":1621823299,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1190158785?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-24 10:28","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore Airlines Records Toughest Year in History","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1190158785","media":"Airline Geeks","summary":"Singapore flag carrier Singapore Airlines reported on Wednesday that it had suffered a net loss of4.","content":"<p>Singapore flag carrier Singapore Airlines reported on Wednesday that it had suffered a net loss of4.3 billion Singapore dollars ($3.23 billion)for the financial year ending in March 2021 as the Covid-19 pandemic continues to wreck international aviation, which the airline relies on given Singapore’s lack of a domestic aviation market.</p>\n<p>The massive loss was far bigger than the 212 million Singapore dollar loss recorded in the prior financial year, its first-ever dip into the red, when only one quarter had been affected by the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The airline said group passenger traffic shrank 97.9% in the financial year ended March 31 from a year before and that group revenue fell by 12 billion Singapore dollars to 3.816 billion Singapore dollars due to the decline in passenger flown revenue across Singapore Airlines, SilkAir and Scoot, the three passenger airlines within the group.</p>\n<p>This was partially offset by an increase in cargo flown revenue, which rose by 39% year-over-year to 2.71 billion Singapore dollars — which was the result of advancements in freighter utilization — such as operating passenger aircraft for cargo-only flights and removing seats from passenger cabins to create additional cargo volume.</p>\n<p>Strong air cargo demand, especially in key segments such as e-commerce, pharmaceuticals and electronics, provided strong support for both cargo load factors and yields amid tight industry cargo capacity.</p>\n<p>The group’s cargo network comprised 72 destinations including Singapore, up from a previous 66 as of December 31, 2020.</p>\n<p>Singapore Airlines Group said that it expects passenger capacity to be around 28% of pre-Covid-19 levels by June 2021. By July 2021, group capacity is expected to reach around 32$ of pre-Covid-19 levels, and it expects to serve around 49% of the destinations that were flown before the crisis.</p>\n<p>The estimated numbers have been reduced as the much-anticipatedSingapore-Hong Kong travel bubblethat was due to launch on May 26 has once again been delayed amid a spike in recent Covid-19 infections in Singapore.</p>\n<p>“Singapore Airlines strongly supports all efforts to further open borders in a safe and calibrated manner,” the airline said in a statement, further adding that, “the group expects to continue with a measured expansion of the passenger network and will remain nimble and flexible in adjusting capacity to meet the demand for air travel.”</p>\n<p><b>Fleet Growth Despite Weak Demand</b></p>\n<p>Currently, the group fleet consists of 162 passenger aircraft and seven freighters. This excludes the 414 aircraft which are deemed surplus to the group’s requirements, six Boeing 737 MAX 8s that have been temporarily withdrawn from service and two aircraft — one Airbus A330 and one Airbus A320 — that have left the operating fleet in preparation for lease returns.</p>\n<p>Yet despite the weak passenger demand, the Singapore Airlines Group is expecting to take delivery of 32 aircraft in the coming twelve months, which includes eight Boeing 737 MAX 8s, although it is uncertain when the aircraft type will return to service within the region.</p>\n<p>“What happens moving forward is really fluid, because it depends on the authorities ungrounding the 737 Max, including Singapore [and] other jurisdictions that the MAX will fly to,” said Executive Vice President for Finance and Strategy Tan Kai Ping.</p>\n<p>Taken together with five aircraft that will exit the group fleet, this delivery will record a net increase of 27 aircraft in the year to March 31 2022.</p>","source":"lsy1621823295102","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

By July 2021, group capacity is expected to reach around 32$ of pre-Covid-19 levels, and it expects to serve around 49% of the destinations that were flown before the crisis.\nThe estimated numbers have been reduced as the much-anticipatedSingapore-Hong Kong travel bubblethat was due to launch on May 26 has once again been delayed amid a spike in recent Covid-19 infections in Singapore.\n“Singapore Airlines strongly supports all efforts to further open borders in a safe and calibrated manner,” the airline said in a statement, further adding that, “the group expects to continue with a measured expansion of the passenger network and will remain nimble and flexible in adjusting capacity to meet the demand for air travel.”\nFleet Growth Despite Weak Demand\nCurrently, the group fleet consists of 162 passenger aircraft and seven freighters. This excludes the 414 aircraft which are deemed surplus to the group’s requirements, six Boeing 737 MAX 8s that have been temporarily withdrawn from service and two aircraft — one Airbus A330 and one Airbus A320 — that have left the operating fleet in preparation for lease returns.\nYet despite the weak passenger demand, the Singapore Airlines Group is expecting to take delivery of 32 aircraft in the coming twelve months, which includes eight Boeing 737 MAX 8s, although it is uncertain when the aircraft type will return to service within the region.\n“What happens moving forward is really fluid, because it depends on the authorities ungrounding the 737 Max, including Singapore [and] other jurisdictions that the MAX will fly to,” said Executive Vice President for Finance and Strategy Tan Kai Ping.\nTaken together with five aircraft that will exit the group fleet, this delivery will record a net increase of 27 aircraft in the year to March 31 2022.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":301,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":197755994,"gmtCreate":1621488694618,"gmtModify":1704358458048,"author":{"id":"3578445262260978","authorId":"3578445262260978","name":"BChew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4e3097563de7fcf194cd187e0dafca","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578445262260978","idStr":"3578445262260978"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Well done!","listText":"Well done!","text":"Well done!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/197755994","repostId":"2136443947","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":89,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
