It would also establish a process to expunge prior cannabis convictions.</p><p>On Wednesday, the House Rules Committee voted to move the MORE Act to an official floor vote scheduled for mid-morning Friday.</p><p>Pot stocks traded lower Friday in anticipation of the vote. Aurora Cannabis (ticker: ACB) was up 1.8%, Curaleaf (CURA) was rising 1.7%, and Cronos Group (CRON) climbed 1.7%. Sundial Growers ( SNDL) rose 2.8%, and Canopy Growth (CGC) gained 1.3%. Tilray Brands (TLRY) stock was up 3.4%.</p><p>Thirty six states and the District of Columbia have legalized medical marijuana over the last few years, and 19 states plus D.C. have decriminalized recreational marijuana use for adults, said House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, one of the bill’s sponsors.</p><p>“If states are the laboratories of democracy, it is long past time for the federal get to recognize that this experiment in legalization has been a resounding success,” he said at Wednesday’s committee hearing.</p><p>Federal legalization could have major ramifications for cannabis companies, which would no longer be subject to a section of the U.S. internal revenue code that prohibits taxpayers from deducting business expenses associated with controlled substances, wrote Pedro Palandrani, director of research at Global X ETFs, in an emailed statement. Palandrani oversees the firm’s cannabis ETF ( POTX ), which was down 0.4%.</p><p>Legalization also could unlock access to basic financing options, like loans and capital raising on U.S. exchanges, that were previously inaccessible to cannabis companies, he added.</p><p>“Furthermore, the possible establishment of cannabis as a commodity with futures contracts and more relaxed regulations regarding land use for cannabis cultivation could also assist developing supply chain dynamics,” Palandrani wrote.</p><p>Analysts widely expect the bill to clear the House, but are more skeptical about its prospects in the Senate. In 2020, a similar bill passed the House but stalled in the upper chamber after failing to garner sufficient support.</p><p>They are more optimistic that the Secure and Fair Enforcement Banking Act, or SAFE Act, passes later this year. The SAFE Act would prohibit federal banking regulators from penalizing banks that work with cannabis businesses legalized by states. The House passed the measure in February.</p><p>But the SAFE Act would have a limited positive impact on cannabis operators, analysts said.

It would also establish a process to expunge prior cannabis convictions.On Wednesday, the House Rules Committee voted to move the MORE Act to an official floor vote scheduled for mid-morning Friday.Pot stocks traded lower Friday in anticipation of the vote. Aurora Cannabis (ticker: ACB) was up 1.8%, Curaleaf (CURA) was rising 1.7%, and Cronos Group (CRON) climbed 1.7%. Sundial Growers ( SNDL) rose 2.8%, and Canopy Growth (CGC) gained 1.3%. Tilray Brands (TLRY) stock was up 3.4%.Thirty six states and the District of Columbia have legalized medical marijuana over the last few years, and 19 states plus D.C. have decriminalized recreational marijuana use for adults, said House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, one of the bill’s sponsors.“If states are the laboratories of democracy, it is long past time for the federal get to recognize that this experiment in legalization has been a resounding success,” he said at Wednesday’s committee hearing.Federal legalization could have major ramifications for cannabis companies, which would no longer be subject to a section of the U.S. internal revenue code that prohibits taxpayers from deducting business expenses associated with controlled substances, wrote Pedro Palandrani, director of research at Global X ETFs, in an emailed statement. Palandrani oversees the firm’s cannabis ETF ( POTX ), which was down 0.4%.Legalization also could unlock access to basic financing options, like loans and capital raising on U.S. exchanges, that were previously inaccessible to cannabis companies, he added.“Furthermore, the possible establishment of cannabis as a commodity with futures contracts and more relaxed regulations regarding land use for cannabis cultivation could also assist developing supply chain dynamics,” Palandrani wrote.Analysts widely expect the bill to clear the House, but are more skeptical about its prospects in the Senate. In 2020, a similar bill passed the House but stalled in the upper chamber after failing to garner sufficient support.They are more optimistic that the Secure and Fair Enforcement Banking Act, or SAFE Act, passes later this year. The SAFE Act would prohibit federal banking regulators from penalizing banks that work with cannabis businesses legalized by states. The House passed the measure in February.But the SAFE Act would have a limited positive impact on cannabis operators, analysts said. Weed would remain illegal at a federal level, creating an obstacle for Canadian companies like Tilray to move into the U.S.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":187,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013295890,"gmtCreate":1648732375353,"gmtModify":1676534387446,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578476625539127","authorIdStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Is it going to hit the $100 mark?","listText":"Is it going to hit the $100 mark?","text":"Is it going to hit the $100 mark?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013295890","repostId":"1141361635","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1141361635","pubTimestamp":1648731658,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1141361635?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-31 21:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Micron is Processing Strong Revenues, Can it Continue?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1141361635","media":"TipRanks","summary":"Micron Technology, Inc.

(MU) is a major player in the rapidly growing semiconductor sector. Despite a significant sell-off like most other semiconductor stocks over the last month due to macro issues and investor worries, the stock has risen about 12% in the last six months.The corporation recently reported excellent fiscal second-quarter financial results, with both revenues and profitability surpassed analyst expectations. In addition, the firm provided a positive fiscal Q3 outlook, which explains the stock’s gain on Wednesday.What do its Q2 Earnings Results Indicate?Micron has been delivering substantial growth, especially over the past couple of years. The company’s Q2 2022 results crushed the market’s expectations by reporting a nearly 25% year-over-year surge in revenues. According to MU, revenues were primarily driven by robust performance across data centers.Meanwhile, adjusted earnings per share increased 8.6% to $2.14 per share year-over-year.In addition to the exceptional results, Micron’s guidance for the upcoming quarter thrilled the market. Adjusted revenue is expected to be in the range of $8.5-$8.9 billion, with adjusted earnings of $2.36 to $2.56 per share, which is higher than consensus projections of $8.06 billion and $2.21 per share, respectively.The findings reveal that Micron is benefiting from a better price environment for both its NAND and DRAM memory products. Furthermore, as enterprises spend extensively in digital ecosystems to extend their cloud and hybrid platforms, Micron’s data center processors should continue to remain in high demand.Wall Street’s TakeOn TipRanks, Micron stock commands a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 17 Buys and one Hold. As for price targets, the average MU stock price prediction of $116.83 implies an almost 48% upside potential from the current level.Bottom LineMicron stock is all set to continue its rally in 2022, driven by the high demand for memory, storage, and advanced processors in the market. Further, Micron’s technological leadership across DRAM and NAND, 5G momentum, accelerating demand for data-center chips, strong financials, and, robust product portfolio should all help the company gain traction.However, existing supply challenges and expectations of costs to rise could limit the upside in Micron stock to some extent.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":502,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013298654,"gmtCreate":1648731948452,"gmtModify":1676534387390,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578476625539127","authorIdStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It's about time to have some good news","listText":"It's about time to have some good news","text":"It's about time to have some good news","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013298654","repostId":"1175936357","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1175936357","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1648729492,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1175936357?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-31 20:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Sundial Growers Completes Acquisition Of Alcanna For $255.55M In Stock And Cash","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1175936357","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Sundial Growers Inc. completed acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Alc","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Sundial Growers Inc.</b> <b>completed</b> <b>acquisition</b> <b>of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Alcanna Inc.</b> pursuant to a plan of arrangement,<b> for total consideration of approximately</b> <b>CA$320 million ($255.55 million) consisting of cash and common shares of Sundial</b>.</p><p>Pursuant to the transaction, <b>former holders of Alcannashares are entitled to receive 8.85 Sundial</b> <b>shares and</b> <b>CA$1.50 in cash for each Alcannashare</b>.

The memory maker saw a surge in revenues due to strong demand for the firm&#39;s memory and storage products, especially in its DRAM segment. Micron&#39;s revenues from DRAM products surged 37% year over year to $5.6B in the firm&#39;s FQ1&#39;22, in part because the DRAM market was heavily undersupplied. DRAM revenues have been supported by strengthening customer demand for Micron&#39;s 1-alpha and 1z DRAM nodes and growing average selling prices throughout the last year. In total, DRAM revenues generated about 73% of revenues for Micron in the last quarter while NAND products generated about 24% of revenues in FQ1-22. NAND revenues are also seeing momentum, especially regarding Micron&#39;s new 176-layer NAND which represents the majority of the firm&#39;s NAND bit production now. NAND-related revenues surged 19% year over year to $1.9B in FQ1-22.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a6c31f5e4f420bb8b7c8aa6ecedffd94\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"235\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Micron</span></p><p><b>Strong outlook in place</b></p><p>Micron has submitted a strong outlook for FQ2-22: The memory chip maker expects to generate $7.5B in revenues +/- $200M in FQ2-22. The forecast implies a 3% quarter over quarter drop in revenues, but revenues are still going to be materially above last year&#39;s level. The company also guided for strong gross margins of at least 45% in the firm&#39;s second fiscal quarter, indicating that Micron expects to be able to defend elevated gross margin levels at least in the first half of the new fiscal year.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b5ff05280ac3f4ffb86515eb49c8484f\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"305\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Micron</span></p><p>Micron is the third-largest DRAM brand in the world, after Samsung and SK Hynix, and has a large market share.

Strong demand for storage and memory products have led to an upswing in average selling prices in FY 2021, especially in the DRAM market which has been chronically undersupplied in FY 2021. But DRAM prices have started to drop towards the end of last year and more pricing pressure could build going forward. Lower average selling prices for DRAM products obviously indicate top line and gross margin risks for Micron, although the memory chip maker still expects to generate record revenues in FY 2022. Micron&#39;s DRAM average selling prices decreased in the lower-single digit range in the last quarter while NAND average selling prices decreased in the mid-single digit range. Micron does not make forecasts about expected average selling prices, but forecasts for FQ1-22, made by Trendforce again, indicate additional pricing pressures in the DRAM market due to a seasonal demand downturn.</p><p><b>Strong free cash flow ramp</b></p><p>In the period from FY 2017 to FQ1-22, Micron earned approximately $21B in free cash flow and free cash flow conversion has greatly improved. The biggest contributing factor for Micron&#39;s strong commercial performance was strengthening demand for the firm&#39;s products during the current bull market in the chip industry. Micron generated $4.2B in free cash flow in FY 2021 and, I believe, could earn about $4.0B in free cash flow in FY 2022.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b65dcf050f37b99e03c7b7c8c7152137\" tg-width=\"1032\" tg-height=\"702\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Micron</span></p><p><b>Extreme undervaluation</b></p><p>Micron&#39;s shares remain deeply undervalued based on earnings.

I believe the P-E ratio really is unreasonably low at this point and the risk profile for shares of Micron are heavily skewed to the upside.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ca80eb75a5ec7d3f7fe009ff80402452\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"126\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Micron</span></p><p><b>Final thoughts</b></p><p>Although pricing pressures in the DRAM market may persist, Micron is extremely attractive as an investment. The biggest reason to consider Micron right now is that the company&#39;s earnings potential is widely undervalued. Shares of Micron have a P-E ratio of just 6.5 X although the company is generating a ton of free cash flow and earnings each quarter. While Micron does have risks relating to lower average selling prices, especially in the dominant DRAM business, I believe the risk/reward still heavily favors an investment in the memory chip maker at this time!</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Micron Is A Bargain At This Price</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\">\nMicron Is A Bargain At This Price\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-30 23:31 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4498448-micron-is-a-bargain-at-this-price><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryShares of Micron have sold off lately, for no apparent reason.Micron will continue to generate a considerable amount of revenues and free cash flow this year.While declining DRAM ASPs provide a...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4498448-micron-is-a-bargain-at-this-price\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"MU":"美光科技","BK4579":"人工智能","BK4533":"AQR资本管理(全球第二大对冲基金)","BK4141":"半导体产品","BK4512":"苹果概念","BK4554":"元宇宙及AR概念","BK4566":"资本集团","BK4532":"文艺复兴科技持仓","BK4575":"芯片概念","BK4553":"喜马拉雅资本持仓","BK4527":"明星科技股"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4498448-micron-is-a-bargain-at-this-price","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2223820099","content_text":"SummaryShares of Micron have sold off lately, for no apparent reason.Micron will continue to generate a considerable amount of revenues and free cash flow this year.While declining DRAM ASPs provide a challenge for Micron, the firm is still looking at record revenues in FY 2022.Micron’s P-E ratio indicates deep undervaluation.Sundry Photography/iStock Editorial via Getty ImagesShares of Micron Technology (NASDAQ:MU) are too cheap to ignore.

I believe the P-E ratio really is unreasonably low at this point and the risk profile for shares of Micron are heavily skewed to the upside.MicronFinal thoughtsAlthough pricing pressures in the DRAM market may persist, Micron is extremely attractive as an investment. The biggest reason to consider Micron right now is that the company's earnings potential is widely undervalued. Shares of Micron have a P-E ratio of just 6.5 X although the company is generating a ton of free cash flow and earnings each quarter. While Micron does have risks relating to lower average selling prices, especially in the dominant DRAM business, I believe the risk/reward still heavily favors an investment in the memory chip maker at this time!","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":285,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013042330,"gmtCreate":1648660192859,"gmtModify":1676534373493,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578476625539127","authorIdStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Didn't sea pull out of India?","listText":"Didn't sea pull out of India?","text":"Didn't sea pull out of India?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013042330","repostId":"2223287458","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":345,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013042097,"gmtCreate":1648660076788,"gmtModify":1676534373494,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578476625539127","authorIdStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Is there any pharma or industrial stock like these?","listText":"Is there any pharma or industrial stock like these?","text":"Is there any pharma or industrial stock like these?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013042097","repostId":"2223092538","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2223092538","pubTimestamp":1648644301,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2223092538?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-30 20:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Growth Stocks With Monster Upside of Up to 331%, According to Wall Street","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2223092538","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Select analysts believe these fast-paced stocks can soar over the next 12 months.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>KEY POINTS</b></p><ul><li>If these high-water price targets are hit, investors would enjoy upside ranging from 179% to 331%.</li><li>Analysts&#39; lofty price targets often fail to capture the challenges high-growth companies are facing.</li></ul><p>Over the long run, the stock market has proved to be a wealth-building machine.

While these are traditionally high-margin markets, the U.S. and Canada have heavily invested in COVID-19 vaccines. A large percentage of the population for both countries have already been vaccinated and/or received booster shots.

Roughly a week later, Plug and French auto company <b>Renault</b> forged a joint venture to tackle Europe&#39;s light commercial vehicle market. These deals signaled that Plug&#39;s fuel-cell solutions were about more than just powering forklifts in warehouses.</p><p>The company has also signaled its willingness to be a key next-gen energy player with acquisitions. In December, it completed its buyout of green hydrogen solutions company Frames Group, which furthers Plug&#39;s ambitions of becoming one of world&#39;s leading green hydrogen ecosystems.</p><p>While there&#39;s little question that developed countries are pushing for green-energy alternative to fight climate change, it&#39;s not yet clear if Plug Power has the solutions that&#39;ll be preferred.

(NASDAQ:AAPL) was reported to be considering a hardware subscription service for its suite of products. So naturally, the attention is on its flagship iPhone segment. Nevertheless, nothing has been confirmed, and plans could continue to be developed or even stalled.</p><p>However, we believe it could mark a significant pivot in Apple&#39;s strategy to reach further into Android&#39;s (GOOGL) (GOOG) installed base. Apple&#39;s 5G launches starting with iPhone 12, have seen tremendous success in the US and China. Furthermore, iPhone 13 has continued its massive momentum. Recent supply chain checks also revealed that it&#39;s trending ahead of estimates, despite the transitory shutdown by its key contract manufacturer Foxconn (OTCPK:HNHAF).</p><p>We discuss why hardware/iPhone subscriptions could be a massive game-changer. We also maintain our Buy rating on AAPL stock. But, we noted a robust recovery from its March bottom, and its price action doesn&#39;t seem ideal to add exposure.</p><p>Therefore, if you are not in a rush, you can consider waiting for the recent spike to be digested first before adding.</p><p><b>AAPL Stock Key Metrics</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/612265ffa4b9faeeddd47fdd0766fca4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"384\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>AAPL stock NTM EBIT valuation (TIKR)</span></p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee1dbf8a24918fcadf0b82caff8e4270\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"384\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>AAPL stock consensus price targets Vs. stock performance (TIKR)</span></p><p></p><p>AAPL stock&#39;s NTM EBIT multiple of 22.9x is trading ahead of its 3Y NTM EBIT mean of 20.2x. So, AAPL stock has moved away from the 20x multiple that has supported its stock over the past year.</p><p>Furthermore, the stock has also progressed well ahead of its most conservative price targets ((PTs)) as seen above. Its most conservative PTs have been robust support levels for AAPL stock over time. Therefore, we think the current buy zone is not ideal if you are looking to add exposure. But, if you are not concerned with near-term volatility, its stock is still not significantly overvalued.</p><p>Furthermore, we believe that Apple holds several optionalities that could spur the Street to re-rate its stock. These include its Apple Car project, its burgeoning services segment, and its rapidly growing ad business.</p><h2>Why Apple&#39;s iPhone Subscriptions Could Be A Game-Changer</h2><p>Bloomberg reported that Apple is mulling a subscription service for its hardware, including its iconic iPhone. Therefore, subscribers would only need to pay a monthly fee. Apple would manage the program through a subscriber&#39;s Apple account, similar to how they have subscribed to other Apple services.</p><p>Notably, it&#39;s different from its current installment programs. Bloomberg noted (edited): &#34;The monthly charge wouldn&#39;t be the price of the device split across 12 or 24 months. Rather, it would be a yet-to-be-determined monthly fee that depends on which device the user chooses.&#34;</p><p>We believe that this could be a noteworthy development in Apple&#39;s services strategy. Apple has been moving ahead with monetizing its massive hardware active installed base that has exceeded 1.65B. Of these, it reported that 785M have signed up as subscribers for its suite of services in FQ1&#39;22 (CQ4&#39;21).</p><p>Apple&#39;s premium smartphone leadership has undoubtedly helped it extend its lead in its segment. For example, Counterpoint Research pointed out that Apple has continued to expand its premium segment market share in China. It accentuated thatApple captured 63.5% in the premium segment share in 2021, compared to 55.4% in 2020. Therefore, Apple has capitalized on Huawei&#39;s demise with incredible &#34;ruthlessness,&#34; despite the best efforts from its Chinese smartphone rivals.</p><p>However, according to StatCounter, Android remains the most important mobile OS globally, with adevice share of 71%. Therefore, it&#39;s clear that most users are still equipped with much cheaper Android phones, and Apple has yet to penetrate this segment.</p><p>While the $429 iPhone SE 5G holds promise, the Street has projected just about 30M units this year. Furthermore, DIGITIMES also reported thatApple shipped about 25M to 30M unitsof its previous iPhone SE in 2020 in its first year of release. Moreover, Counterpoint Research also highlighted that it accounted for about &#34;12% of Apple&#39;s total iPhone unit salesfrom its launch in Q2 2020 to Q4 2021 - with Japan and US the biggest markets for the device globally.&#34;</p><p>Therefore, if Apple wants to make its mark in the low to mid-segment and gain share against Android, a subscription service makes tremendous sense. China&#39;s 5G smartphone penetration rate has already reached about 80%. But, the opportunities in the rest of Asia and Europe could offer Apple tremendous potential. Notably, Apple needs to make its iPhone more affordable without impinging on its treasured margins. Bloomberg&#39;s Mark Gurman even suggested that Apple launch a $199 iPhone SE 5G to penetrate the low to mid-tier segment more effectively before its Peek Performance event in March. He emphasized (edited):</p><blockquote><i>A device priced at $200 could make inroads in regions like Africa, South America, and parts of Asia that are currently Android strongholds</i>.</blockquote><blockquote>That would let Apple<i>sign up more customers for services</i>, potentially making a low-end iPhone quite lucrative for Apple in the long run. But so far, the company has steered well clear of that approach.</blockquote><blockquote>In 2013, when carrier subsidies began to disappear and demand for a lower-cost iPhone grew, Apple executives said they wouldn&#39;t release a cheap model just to blindly chase market share. It did put out the lower-end SE in 2016, but the phone was $399-well above the level of many Androids-and the price never came down over the following five years.<i>The company has stuck by Steve Jobs&#39; &#39;don&#39;t ship junk&#39; ethos.</i>-Bloomberg</blockquote><p>Furthermore, the 5G upgrade cycle is still in its early stages and gaining rapid adoption. Counterpoint Research also highlighted in a recent note thatglobal 5G smartphone penetrationsurpassed 4G for the first time in January 2022.</p><p>Therefore, there&#39;s a considerable opportunity for Apple to leverage this 5G wave to encourage switchers from Android to iOS.

(NASDAQ:AAPL) was reported to be considering a hardware subscription service for its suite of products. So naturally, the attention is on its flagship iPhone segment. Nevertheless, nothing has been confirmed, and plans could continue to be developed or even stalled.However, we believe it could mark a significant pivot in Apple's strategy to reach further into Android's (GOOGL) (GOOG) installed base. Apple's 5G launches starting with iPhone 12, have seen tremendous success in the US and China. Furthermore, iPhone 13 has continued its massive momentum. Recent supply chain checks also revealed that it's trending ahead of estimates, despite the transitory shutdown by its key contract manufacturer Foxconn (OTCPK:HNHAF).We discuss why hardware/iPhone subscriptions could be a massive game-changer. We also maintain our Buy rating on AAPL stock. But, we noted a robust recovery from its March bottom, and its price action doesn't seem ideal to add exposure.Therefore, if you are not in a rush, you can consider waiting for the recent spike to be digested first before adding.AAPL Stock Key MetricsAAPL stock NTM EBIT valuation (TIKR)AAPL stock consensus price targets Vs. stock performance (TIKR)AAPL stock's NTM EBIT multiple of 22.9x is trading ahead of its 3Y NTM EBIT mean of 20.2x. So, AAPL stock has moved away from the 20x multiple that has supported its stock over the past year.Furthermore, the stock has also progressed well ahead of its most conservative price targets ((PTs)) as seen above. Its most conservative PTs have been robust support levels for AAPL stock over time. Therefore, we think the current buy zone is not ideal if you are looking to add exposure. But, if you are not concerned with near-term volatility, its stock is still not significantly overvalued.Furthermore, we believe that Apple holds several optionalities that could spur the Street to re-rate its stock. These include its Apple Car project, its burgeoning services segment, and its rapidly growing ad business.Why Apple's iPhone Subscriptions Could Be A Game-ChangerBloomberg reported that Apple is mulling a subscription service for its hardware, including its iconic iPhone. Therefore, subscribers would only need to pay a monthly fee. Apple would manage the program through a subscriber's Apple account, similar to how they have subscribed to other Apple services.Notably, it's different from its current installment programs. Bloomberg noted (edited): \"The monthly charge wouldn't be the price of the device split across 12 or 24 months. Rather, it would be a yet-to-be-determined monthly fee that depends on which device the user chooses.\"We believe that this could be a noteworthy development in Apple's services strategy. Apple has been moving ahead with monetizing its massive hardware active installed base that has exceeded 1.65B. Of these, it reported that 785M have signed up as subscribers for its suite of services in FQ1'22 (CQ4'21).Apple's premium smartphone leadership has undoubtedly helped it extend its lead in its segment. For example, Counterpoint Research pointed out that Apple has continued to expand its premium segment market share in China. It accentuated thatApple captured 63.5% in the premium segment share in 2021, compared to 55.4% in 2020. Therefore, Apple has capitalized on Huawei's demise with incredible \"ruthlessness,\" despite the best efforts from its Chinese smartphone rivals.However, according to StatCounter, Android remains the most important mobile OS globally, with adevice share of 71%. Therefore, it's clear that most users are still equipped with much cheaper Android phones, and Apple has yet to penetrate this segment.While the $429 iPhone SE 5G holds promise, the Street has projected just about 30M units this year. Furthermore, DIGITIMES also reported thatApple shipped about 25M to 30M unitsof its previous iPhone SE in 2020 in its first year of release. Moreover, Counterpoint Research also highlighted that it accounted for about \"12% of Apple's total iPhone unit salesfrom its launch in Q2 2020 to Q4 2021 - with Japan and US the biggest markets for the device globally.\"Therefore, if Apple wants to make its mark in the low to mid-segment and gain share against Android, a subscription service makes tremendous sense. China's 5G smartphone penetration rate has already reached about 80%. But, the opportunities in the rest of Asia and Europe could offer Apple tremendous potential. Notably, Apple needs to make its iPhone more affordable without impinging on its treasured margins. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman even suggested that Apple launch a $199 iPhone SE 5G to penetrate the low to mid-tier segment more effectively before its Peek Performance event in March. He emphasized (edited):A device priced at $200 could make inroads in regions like Africa, South America, and parts of Asia that are currently Android strongholds.That would let Applesign up more customers for services, potentially making a low-end iPhone quite lucrative for Apple in the long run. But so far, the company has steered well clear of that approach.In 2013, when carrier subsidies began to disappear and demand for a lower-cost iPhone grew, Apple executives said they wouldn't release a cheap model just to blindly chase market share. It did put out the lower-end SE in 2016, but the phone was $399-well above the level of many Androids-and the price never came down over the following five years.The company has stuck by Steve Jobs' 'don't ship junk' ethos.-BloombergFurthermore, the 5G upgrade cycle is still in its early stages and gaining rapid adoption. Counterpoint Research also highlighted in a recent note thatglobal 5G smartphone penetrationsurpassed 4G for the first time in January 2022.Therefore, there's a considerable opportunity for Apple to leverage this 5G wave to encourage switchers from Android to iOS. Hence, we believe a hardware subscription strategy could be massive for the Cupertino company to spur the adoption of its 5G devices.We believe that Apple can continue innovating and introducing effective ideas to capture the segment Android has traditionally dominated without necessarily sacrificing its brand value and margins.Is AAPL Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?AAPL stock is slightly overvalued, but not by much. Therefore, if you need a higher margin of safety, you can consider taking a 10-15% haircut.Otherwise, if you have a firm conviction of Apple's execution ability, the current price could offer a suitable opportunity to increase exposure.Furthermore, we think Apple has several optionalities that have not been factored into its stock price. And the potential hardware subscription strategy adds to its growing list of monetization potential.As such, we reiterate our Buy rating on AAPL stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":277,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9010260095,"gmtCreate":1648396920125,"gmtModify":1676534333852,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578476625539127","authorIdStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Can name a few other Buffet stocks?","listText":"Can name a few other Buffet stocks?","text":"Can name a few other Buffet stocks?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9010260095","repostId":"2222855376","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2222855376","pubTimestamp":1648341227,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2222855376?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-27 08:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Have $1,000? 2 Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2222855376","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Through up and down markets, compounding dividends can be a game-changer for long-term investors.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Whether you&#39;re an investor just starting out or <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> who might have a limited budget, it&#39;s a good practice to invest an amount that you&#39;re willing to be without in the short term so that you can build for the long term.

That growth is expected to continue with an 8% increase in sales for Humira during 2022, but could come to a screeching slowdown in 2023.

But the company&#39;s investors have not been exempt from the broader market volatility that has impacted tech stocks, as Verizon&#39;s stock price has seen a 15% decline since May of last year.</p><p>Fortunately, CEO Hans Vestberg, who came on board in 2018 after a stint as chief technology officer, has a clear plan in place that could trigger a rebound. It includes reducing the company&#39;s capital intensity to under 12%, growing dividends, paying down debt, and speeding up a timeline for share repurchases.</p><p>Boxes are already being checked off for that plan. Verizon&#39;s Q4 report highlighted a 6.5% year-over-year growth in wireless services revenue, driven by higher revenue per account, meaning existing customers are spending more. Growth is also coming from an increase in subscriptions for wireless and broadband. FiOS (its bundled service for internet, cable, and telephone) finished Q4 of last year with a 5.7% year-over-year spike in revenue, allowing the company to post its best full-year performance for FiOS since 2014.</p><p>The company expects to check off a few more boxes during 2022, starting with a continued quarterly dividend payout of $0.64 per share, to be paid on May 2 to investors of record on April 8. This represents a 5% dividend yield, topping the telecom sector average of 4.36%.</p><p>By year-end, the company is looking to complete an accelerated plan to bring 5G ultra wideband service to an additional 30 major markets serving over 175 million people -- a full year ahead of schedule. And while doing so, Vestberg has his eyes on reducing capital expenditures 9% to $16.5 billion.</p><p>If 2022 goes according to plan, the company is projecting full-year earnings per share that just slightly tops Wall Street estimates. Management is also looking for 9% to 10% growth in services revenue. Ultimately, Verizon&#39;s technological advancements should lead to new revenue, supported by acquisitions in the telecom space and collaborations with companies such as <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a></b> (formerly Facebook) as the two work toward building out the immersive digital world referred to as the metaverse.</p><p>Verizon investors should stand to gain from continued dividends and a wireless market that is projected to grow at a 15.4% compound annual rate through 2027. The company&#39;s shares currently trade at a P/E ratio of 9.6, far below the wireless telecom industry average of 30. All in all, Verizon is an excellent opportunity for long-term investors who are looking for somewhere to invest $1,000.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Have $1,000? 2 Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy</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\">\nHave $1,000? 2 Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-27 08:33 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/03/26/have-1000-2-warren-buffett-stocks-to-buy/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Whether you're an investor just starting out or one who might have a limited budget, it's a good practice to invest an amount that you're willing to be without in the short term so that you can build ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/03/26/have-1000-2-warren-buffett-stocks-to-buy/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BK4534":"瑞士信贷持仓","BK4176":"多领域控股","BRK.A":"伯克希尔","BK4581":"高盛持仓","BK4550":"红杉资本持仓","BK4533":"AQR资本管理(全球第二大对冲基金)","BRK.B":"伯克希尔B","ABBV":"艾伯维公司","VZ":"威瑞森"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/03/26/have-1000-2-warren-buffett-stocks-to-buy/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2222855376","content_text":"Whether you're an investor just starting out or one who might have a limited budget, it's a good practice to invest an amount that you're willing to be without in the short term so that you can build for the long term.

But the company's investors have not been exempt from the broader market volatility that has impacted tech stocks, as Verizon's stock price has seen a 15% decline since May of last year.Fortunately, CEO Hans Vestberg, who came on board in 2018 after a stint as chief technology officer, has a clear plan in place that could trigger a rebound. It includes reducing the company's capital intensity to under 12%, growing dividends, paying down debt, and speeding up a timeline for share repurchases.Boxes are already being checked off for that plan. Verizon's Q4 report highlighted a 6.5% year-over-year growth in wireless services revenue, driven by higher revenue per account, meaning existing customers are spending more. Growth is also coming from an increase in subscriptions for wireless and broadband. FiOS (its bundled service for internet, cable, and telephone) finished Q4 of last year with a 5.7% year-over-year spike in revenue, allowing the company to post its best full-year performance for FiOS since 2014.The company expects to check off a few more boxes during 2022, starting with a continued quarterly dividend payout of $0.64 per share, to be paid on May 2 to investors of record on April 8. This represents a 5% dividend yield, topping the telecom sector average of 4.36%.By year-end, the company is looking to complete an accelerated plan to bring 5G ultra wideband service to an additional 30 major markets serving over 175 million people -- a full year ahead of schedule. And while doing so, Vestberg has his eyes on reducing capital expenditures 9% to $16.5 billion.If 2022 goes according to plan, the company is projecting full-year earnings per share that just slightly tops Wall Street estimates. Management is also looking for 9% to 10% growth in services revenue. Ultimately, Verizon's technological advancements should lead to new revenue, supported by acquisitions in the telecom space and collaborations with companies such as Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) as the two work toward building out the immersive digital world referred to as the metaverse.Verizon investors should stand to gain from continued dividends and a wireless market that is projected to grow at a 15.4% compound annual rate through 2027. The company's shares currently trade at a P/E ratio of 9.6, far below the wireless telecom industry average of 30. All in all, Verizon is an excellent opportunity for long-term investors who are looking for somewhere to invest $1,000.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":236,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9010287279,"gmtCreate":1648396789131,"gmtModify":1676534333844,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578476625539127","authorIdStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"What about a dozen others too?","listText":"What about a dozen others too?","text":"What about a dozen others too?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9010287279","repostId":"2222855381","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2222855381","pubTimestamp":1648341420,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2222855381?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-27 08:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Stocks I'm Buying No Matter What the Stock Market Does Next","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2222855381","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Investors should use the current market volatility to scoop up these companies and hold them for the next decade.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The stock market is known for its volatility, but it might as well be giving investors whiplash because of how fast it&#39;s moving up and down.

prior to","content":"<p>Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>\n<p>The famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ballooned to a value of $281.17 billion by the end of 2020, or more than double the cumulative cost of building these stakes at $108.62 billion, according toBerkshire's latest annual shareholder letter.The value of the portfolio's total equity investments carried at market was up 13.4% compared to year-end 2019. However, Berkshire's own stock underperformed the broader market over that time period: The S&amp;P 500 rose 16.3% in 2020, without including reinvested dividends, while Berkshire's Class B shares increased 2.4%.</p>\n<p>Berkshire's stock performance in 2020 relative to the broader market, however, belies what has been, in aggregate, decades of outperformance for the Omaha, Nebraska-based company. Berkshire Hathaway's annual compounded gain between 1965 and 2020 was 20%, versus just 10.2% for the S&amp;P 500. And the firm's cumulative returns over that period have been a whopping 2,810,526% to the S&amp;P 500's 23,454%.</p>\n<p>On May 1, Buffett and long-time business partner Charlie Munger will hold Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting in Los Angeles. This may serve as a forum for the pair to discuss additional investments purchased and sold in the first months of 2021, ahead of formal 13-F filing reveals later in the month. Last year, Buffett disclosed at the annual meeting thatBerkshire had sold out of its entire interest in the airline stocksAmerican Airlines (AAL), United Airlines (UAL), Delta Air Lines (DAL) and Southwest Airlines (LUV)in the first quarter of 2020.</p>\n<p>Here's how Berkshire's top 10 stock investments by market value fared over the course of the pandemic, based on the stakes disclosed in the Buffett's latest annual shareholder letter.*</p>\n<p><b>Apple</b></p>\n<p>Buffett pointed to Apple (AAPL) as one of the most valuable assets for Berkshire Hathaway alongside the firm's insurance operation and BNSF Railway, thanks in large part to the iPhone-maker's hefty share repurchases.</p>\n<p>Berkshire owned 907,559,761 shares of Apple as of the end of December for a total market value of $120.4 billion. By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.</p>\n<p>That massive holding — comprising 44% of Berkshire's disclosed assets, according to Bloomberg data — came even after the firm pocketed $11 billion after selling a small portion of its position in 2020.</p>\n<p>\"Despite that sale – voila! – Berkshire now owns 5.4% of Apple,\" Buffett said in the shareholder letter. \"That increase was costless to us,<b>coming about because Apple</b>has continuously repurchased its shares, thereby substantially shrinking the number it now has outstanding.\"</p>\n<p>Though Buffett hashistorically steered away from investing in technology companiesin favor of businesses he has understood more deeply, Berkshire's major holding in Apple proved auspicious during the pandemic, when Big Tech companies led the market higher.</p>\n<p>Apple's stock posted a total return of 82% in 2020, outperforming every other \"FAANG\" stock including Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Alphabet. The run-up has since cooled in early 2021, however, with the stock posting a total return of just 1.4% for the year-to-date through market close on April 27.</p>\n<p><b>Bank of America</b></p>\n<p>While Berkshire Hathaway unloaded many of its bank stock holdings over the course of 2020, it increased its stake in Bank of America (BAC).</p>\n<p>The firm held 1,032,952,006 shares of Bank of America as of the end of 2020, after adding 85.1 million shares in the third quarter alone. This gave Berkshire Hathaway an ownership stake of 11.9%.</p>\n<p>By the end of last year, the value of that holding was worth $31.3 million, and cost $14.6 million to amass.</p>\n<p>The increase in the size of Berkshire Hathaway's Bank of America holding bucked the trend of the other bank stocks in the portfolio last year. Berkshire cut its holdings of Wells Fargo (EFC) from 345.7 million shares at year-end 2019 to 52.4 million by year-end 2020, and completely exited its holdings in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and M&amp;T Bank Corp (MTB).</p>\n<p>With interest rates sliding amid ultra-accommodative monetary policy during the pandemic, bank stocks were among the worst performers last year. Bank of America shares fell nearly 14% in 2020, underperforming against both the S&amp;P 500 and S&amp;P 500 financials sector, which dropped just 4.1%. However, with interest rates back on the rise and consumer spending accelerating, shares have already started to reverse these declines, and Bank of America shares have risen 32% so far in 2021.</p>\n<p><b>The Coca-Cola Company</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway's stake in Coca-Cola (KO) remained unchanged between 2019 and 2020 at 400 million shares, offering 9.3% ownership in the beverage giant. Buffett has been a long-time investor in the firm, having first purchased shares in Berkshire's portfolio in 1988. It has comprised a significant portion of the firm's total holdings and mark value value ever since.</p>\n<p>This long-term investment has paid off for the company, with the market value of the shares held totaling $21.9 billion at the end of 2020. Berkshire spent just under $1.3 billion building its stake in Coca-Cola.</p>\n<p>While Berkshire's overall return on its investment in Coca-Cola has been formidable, the stock did underperform the broader market in 2020. Coca-Cola shares declined 0.9% during the year as a dearth of live events and concessions weighed on sales, though the stock did still eke out a total return of 2.44% during the year with reinvested dividends. Shares have extended a run of underperformance in 2021, with the stock falling 1.5% so far this year.</p>\n<p><b>American Express</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway held 151,610,700 shares of American Express (AXP) as of the end of 2020, with the stock comprising another of the firm's long-standing investments. Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.</p>\n<p>As a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.</p>\n<p>While Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"</p>\n<p>More recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&amp;P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.</p>\n<p><b>Verizon Communications</b></p>\n<p>Verizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.</p>\n<p>The holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.</p>\n<p>But even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Moody's Corporation</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.</p>\n<p>The credit rating agency outperformed the S&amp;P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>U.S. Bancorp</b></p>\n<p>U.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.</p>\n<p>As was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>BYD</b></p>\n<p>Shenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).</p>\n<p>Berkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.</p>\n<p><b>Chevron</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.</p>\n<p>By year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&amp;P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Charter Communications</b></p>\n<p>Charter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020. In August of last year, Berkshire reported it had cut its stake by 4% to a total of about 5.2 million shares.</p>\n<p>The sale still left Berkshire with a 2.7% stake in the company, and holdings worth $3.45 billion by year-end 2020, at a total cost of just $904 million. Berkshire had beenaccumulating its stake in Charter since 2014.</p>\n<p>Shares of Charter Communications rose 36% in 2020, but have given back some of these gains after dipping 1.2% so far in 2021.</p>\n<p><i>* This analysis excludes Berkshire Hathaway's Kraft Heinz holding of 325,442,152 shares, since this is held using a different accounting method. Berkshire reported that the market value of these shares was $11.3 billion as of December 31, 2020.</i></p>","source":"lsy1584348713084","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>Here’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic</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\">\nHere’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-28 23:20 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html><strong>Yahoo</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.\nThe famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"MCO":"穆迪","01211":"比亚迪股份","BAC":"美国银行","USB":"美国合众银行","002594":"比亚迪","AAPL":"苹果","AXP":"美国运通","CHTR":"特许通讯","CVX":"雪佛龙","VZ":"威瑞森","KO":"可口可乐"},"source_url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1104198438","content_text":"Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.\nThe famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ballooned to a value of $281.17 billion by the end of 2020, or more than double the cumulative cost of building these stakes at $108.62 billion, according toBerkshire's latest annual shareholder letter.The value of the portfolio's total equity investments carried at market was up 13.4% compared to year-end 2019.

By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.\nThat massive holding — comprising 44% of Berkshire's disclosed assets, according to Bloomberg data — came even after the firm pocketed $11 billion after selling a small portion of its position in 2020.\n\"Despite that sale – voila! – Berkshire now owns 5.4% of Apple,\" Buffett said in the shareholder letter. \"That increase was costless to us,coming about because Applehas continuously repurchased its shares, thereby substantially shrinking the number it now has outstanding.\"\nThough Buffett hashistorically steered away from investing in technology companiesin favor of businesses he has understood more deeply, Berkshire's major holding in Apple proved auspicious during the pandemic, when Big Tech companies led the market higher.\nApple's stock posted a total return of 82% in 2020, outperforming every other \"FAANG\" stock including Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Alphabet. The run-up has since cooled in early 2021, however, with the stock posting a total return of just 1.4% for the year-to-date through market close on April 27.\nBank of America\nWhile Berkshire Hathaway unloaded many of its bank stock holdings over the course of 2020, it increased its stake in Bank of America (BAC).\nThe firm held 1,032,952,006 shares of Bank of America as of the end of 2020, after adding 85.1 million shares in the third quarter alone. This gave Berkshire Hathaway an ownership stake of 11.9%.\nBy the end of last year, the value of that holding was worth $31.3 million, and cost $14.6 million to amass.\nThe increase in the size of Berkshire Hathaway's Bank of America holding bucked the trend of the other bank stocks in the portfolio last year. Berkshire cut its holdings of Wells Fargo (EFC) from 345.7 million shares at year-end 2019 to 52.4 million by year-end 2020, and completely exited its holdings in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and M&T Bank Corp (MTB).\nWith interest rates sliding amid ultra-accommodative monetary policy during the pandemic, bank stocks were among the worst performers last year. Bank of America shares fell nearly 14% in 2020, underperforming against both the S&P 500 and S&P 500 financials sector, which dropped just 4.1%. However, with interest rates back on the rise and consumer spending accelerating, shares have already started to reverse these declines, and Bank of America shares have risen 32% so far in 2021.\nThe Coca-Cola Company\nBerkshire Hathaway's stake in Coca-Cola (KO) remained unchanged between 2019 and 2020 at 400 million shares, offering 9.3% ownership in the beverage giant. Buffett has been a long-time investor in the firm, having first purchased shares in Berkshire's portfolio in 1988. It has comprised a significant portion of the firm's total holdings and mark value value ever since.\nThis long-term investment has paid off for the company, with the market value of the shares held totaling $21.9 billion at the end of 2020. Berkshire spent just under $1.3 billion building its stake in Coca-Cola.\nWhile Berkshire's overall return on its investment in Coca-Cola has been formidable, the stock did underperform the broader market in 2020. Coca-Cola shares declined 0.9% during the year as a dearth of live events and concessions weighed on sales, though the stock did still eke out a total return of 2.44% during the year with reinvested dividends. Shares have extended a run of underperformance in 2021, with the stock falling 1.5% so far this year.\nAmerican Express\nBerkshire Hathaway held 151,610,700 shares of American Express (AXP) as of the end of 2020, with the stock comprising another of the firm's long-standing investments. Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.\nAs a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.\nWhile Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.\n\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"\nMore recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.\nVerizon Communications\nVerizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.\nBerkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.\nThe holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.\nBut even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.\nMoody's Corporation\nBerkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.\nThe credit rating agency outperformed the S&P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.\nU.S. Bancorp\nU.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.\nThe firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.\nAs was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.\nBYD\nShenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).\nBerkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.\nChevron\nBerkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.\nBy year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.\nBerkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.\nCharter Communications\nCharter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020. In August of last year, Berkshire reported it had cut its stake by 4% to a total of about 5.2 million shares.\nThe sale still left Berkshire with a 2.7% stake in the company, and holdings worth $3.45 billion by year-end 2020, at a total cost of just $904 million. Berkshire had beenaccumulating its stake in Charter since 2014.\nShares of Charter Communications rose 36% in 2020, but have given back some of these gains after dipping 1.2% so far in 2021.\n* This analysis excludes Berkshire Hathaway's Kraft Heinz holding of 325,442,152 shares, since this is held using a different accounting method. Berkshire reported that the market value of these shares was $11.3 billion as of December 31, 2020.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":385,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":109842583,"gmtCreate":1619685826942,"gmtModify":1704727992390,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578476625539127","authorIdStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Call]&nbsp;","listText":"[Call]&nbsp;","text":"[Call]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/109842583","repostId":"1143067327","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1143067327","pubTimestamp":1619684104,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1143067327?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-29 16:15","market":"fut","language":"en","title":"India Health Crisis Set to Crimp Nascent Rebound in Gold Demand","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1143067327","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Rising virus cases have led to dip in consumer confidence: WGC.

In some of these stores, Walmart has rolled out a design with more self-checkout registers, as well as other items such as grab-and-go food or candy sold near the front of stores in place of Marlboro, Newport and other tobacco products.</p><p>Walmart, which has more than 4,700 U.S. stores, is removing tobacco products from select locations where the retailer has decided to use the space more efficiently, a spokeswoman said. “We are always looking at ways to meet our customers’ needs while still operating an efficient business,” she said. She declined to say how many locations will continue to sell cigarettes but said Walmart isn’t halting all tobacco sales.</p><p>The shift comes after years of internal debate at Walmart about cigarettes, which U.S. health officials say are linked to 480,000 deaths in the country each year and which are complex for big-box retailers to sell because of regulations. Top Walmart executives decided to start moving out of the category in some locations before the Covid-19 pandemic, some of the people said, a decision now playing out in stores.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2c9cf9b4016c263f38b86bb4c66b9377\" tg-width=\"1050\" tg-height=\"700\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Tension regarding the issue of cigarette sales has risen as Walmart works to become a larger player in healthcare.</span></p><p>For years Walmart Chief ExecutiveDoug McMillonhas challenged other executives to find a way to stop selling tobacco, without demanding that the company do so, according to people familiar with those discussions.</p><p>Tension around the issue has risen as Walmart works to become a larger player in the healthcare industry, say some of these people. Many top executives argued that cigarettes are legal products that customers want and that Walmart shouldn’t be in the business of morally policing its shoppers, according to some of the people.</p><p>As with tobacco, Walmart has pulled back on sales of firearms in recent years after similar internal discussions. It raised the age to purchase guns to 21 after the 2018 high-school shooting in Parkland, Fla., and discontinued sales of ammunition used in semiautomatic weapons and handguns after a 2019 shooting at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas.</p><p>At Walmart, sales of cigarettes are generally less profitable than some other items sold near the front of stores such as candy, according to the people familiar with the situation.

In some of these stores, Walmart has rolled out a design with more self-checkout registers, as well as other items such as grab-and-go food or candy sold near the front of stores in place of Marlboro, Newport and other tobacco products.Walmart, which has more than 4,700 U.S. stores, is removing tobacco products from select locations where the retailer has decided to use the space more efficiently, a spokeswoman said. “We are always looking at ways to meet our customers’ needs while still operating an efficient business,” she said. She declined to say how many locations will continue to sell cigarettes but said Walmart isn’t halting all tobacco sales.The shift comes after years of internal debate at Walmart about cigarettes, which U.S. health officials say are linked to 480,000 deaths in the country each year and which are complex for big-box retailers to sell because of regulations. Top Walmart executives decided to start moving out of the category in some locations before the Covid-19 pandemic, some of the people said, a decision now playing out in stores.Tension regarding the issue of cigarette sales has risen as Walmart works to become a larger player in healthcare.For years Walmart Chief ExecutiveDoug McMillonhas challenged other executives to find a way to stop selling tobacco, without demanding that the company do so, according to people familiar with those discussions.Tension around the issue has risen as Walmart works to become a larger player in the healthcare industry, say some of these people. Many top executives argued that cigarettes are legal products that customers want and that Walmart shouldn’t be in the business of morally policing its shoppers, according to some of the people.As with tobacco, Walmart has pulled back on sales of firearms in recent years after similar internal discussions. It raised the age to purchase guns to 21 after the 2018 high-school shooting in Parkland, Fla., and discontinued sales of ammunition used in semiautomatic weapons and handguns after a 2019 shooting at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas.At Walmart, sales of cigarettes are generally less profitable than some other items sold near the front of stores such as candy, according to the people familiar with the situation. It is also an operationally complex sale, eating into profits. Tobacco is kept in a locked case or blocked from shoppers. Food and Drug Administration regulations require that an employee make the sale. At Walmart, that employee must be over a specific age based on local laws and trained in tobacco sales.

The three major indexes were 4.5% to 10.1% lower so far in 2022, according to FactSet.By watching the 10s and 2s TMUBMUSD02Y, 2.280% spread, “You are looking at the expectations of where Fed Reserve interest rate policy is going to be over a period of two years,” Stephens said. “So, effectively, it’s working with a lag.”On average, from the time the 10s and 2s curve inverts, until “there’s a recession, it’s almost two years,” he said, predicting that with unemployment recently pegged around 3.8% that, “this curve is going to invert when the economy is really strong.”The Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco also called the 3-month TMUBMUSD03M, 0.535% and 10-year curve relationship its “preferred spread measure because it has the strongest predictive power for future recessions,” such as in 2019, back when the yield curve was more regularly flashing recession warning signs.“Did it see COVID coming?” Duffy said, of earlier yield curve inversions.A more likely catalyst was that investors already were on a recession watch, with the American economy in its longest expansion period on record.“There are a number of these curves that you need to look at in totality,” Duffy said. “We’ve always said look at many signals.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":184,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013042102,"gmtCreate":1648660229774,"gmtModify":1676534373493,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578476625539127","idStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"How high can it go?","listText":"How high can it go?","text":"How high can it go?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013042102","repostId":"2223820099","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":285,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9012853831,"gmtCreate":1649307622358,"gmtModify":1676534489747,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578476625539127","idStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"With recession lurking around the corner, can the price prediction still hols?","listText":"With recession lurking around the corner, can the price prediction still hols?","text":"With recession lurking around the corner, can the price prediction still hols?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9012853831","repostId":"2225568035","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2225568035","pubTimestamp":1649289910,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2225568035?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-07 08:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 COVID-19 Stocks With Monster Upside of Up to 355%, According to Wall Street","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2225568035","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Select analysts foresee these coronavirus stocks rocketing higher by 246% to 355% over the next year.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>For more than two years, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has turned the world upside-down. According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 486 million cases of COVID-19 had been reported, as of April 1, 2022, leading to over 6.1 million cumulative deaths. Nearly 973,000 of those deaths have occurred in the United States.</p><p>Even though the worst of the pandemic appears to be in the rearview mirror, there&#39;s a real likelihood that COVID-19 becomes an endemic illness. This means initial inoculation campaigns, booster shots, and research into combination vaccines, is almost certain to continue -- and Wall Street knows it.</p><p>Based on the highest issued price targets from Wall Street analysts, the following three COVID-19 stocks offer monster upside over the next 12 months ranging from a &#34;low&#34; of 246% to as much as 355%.</p><h2>Novavax: Implied upside of 257%</h2><p>The first COVID-19 play that offers drool-worthy upside, at least according to <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> Wall Street analyst, is biotech stock <b>Novavax</b> ( NVAX -13.36% ). Despite a $50 price-target reduction in February, B. Riley analyst Mayank Mamtani still believes Novavax can reach $265 a share.  This represents a cool 257% upside from where shares ended last week.</p><p>Mamtani&#39;s aggressive price target is based on a few factors. For instance, he believes that concerns over Novavax&#39;s near-term manufacturing struggles are overblown. Mamtani explained months ago that Novavax was nearing its monthly manufacturing target of around 150 million doses, and would likely be exporting more than 100 million monthly doses out of India, where it&#39;s working with the Serum Institute of India to produce NVX-CoV2373 vaccines.</p><p>Mamtani also views the U.S. and European Union as core long-term sales opportunities for Novavax. Even though a substantial percentage of the population in these developed markets have already received their initial inoculations, the mutability of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19 offers recurring revenue opportunities via boosters and combination vaccines. Novavax is one of a handful of companies currently developing a combination influenza/COVID-19 vaccine.</p><p>Something else to consider is that NVX-CoV2373 has been among the most effective vaccine candidates. Among U.S. and EU treatments that have received approval or emergency-use authorization (EUA), only three have managed to reach the 90% vaccine efficacy (VE) plateau. Novavax is one of those three, with the company&#39;s large-scale study in the U.S./Mexico (announced in June 2021) hitting a 90.4% VE. This should allow Novavax to easily supplant other COVID-19 vaccines with lower VEs, such as those from <b>Johnson &amp; Johnson</b> and <b>AstraZeneca</b>.</p><p>Based on Wall Street&#39;s worst-case scenario for 2022, Novavax looks to be on track for a little over $4 billion in sales (the company recorded $1.15 billion in revenue last year) and over $13 in earnings per share. This would put Novavax&#39;s stock at less than six times Wall Street&#39;s most-pessimistic profit forecast in 2022.</p><p>While I don&#39;t expect Mamtani&#39;s lofty price target to hit over the next 12 months, I do believe $265 remains in the picture down the line if Novavax continues to execute and innovate.</p><h2>Vaxart: Implied upside of 246%</h2><p>A second COVID-19 stock that offers monster upside over the next 12 months is clinical-stage drug developer <b>Vaxart.</b> Analyst Yasmeen Rahimi of Piper Sandler holds the high-water price target on Vaxart of $18 a share. If this figure were to become a reality, shareholders would enjoy a 246% gain from where Vaxart&#39;s stock ended this past week.</p><p>Rahimi&#39;s optimism is primarily tied to Vaxart&#39;s proprietary drug development technology known as &#34;Vector-Adjuvant-Antigen Standardized Technology,&#34; or VAAST. While traditional vaccines aim to produce a systemic response, VAAST is intended to produce both a systemic <i>and</i> mucosal response. This dual approach is believed to provide better protection against airborne viruses. In Rahimi&#39;s view, VAAST&#39;s success has been demonstrated in previous clinical trials, which somewhat de-risks Vaxart&#39;s development platform.</p><p>Another unique aspect of Vaxart&#39;s pipeline is that its COVID-19 candidate is an oral tablet and not a jab in the arm. An effective oral COVID-19 treatment would completely change the game globally. It would make distribution substantially easier (i.e., no medical professionals needed to administer shots), and there&#39;s a good likelihood that people would be more willing to swallow a pill than receive a vaccine.</p><p>Last year, early stage data from Vaxart&#39;s COVID-19 oral treatment demonstrated mixed results. Although it did generate an immune response, the level of neutralizing antibodies observed in clinical trials was notably lower than in patients who&#39;d received a traditional COVID-19 vaccine.</p><p>Following this study, Vaxart ran a preclinical trial specifically targeting the S-protein, which is involved in receptor viral attachment and entry into host cells. The initial results of this study, which were released in late February, demonstrated &#34;robust neutralizing antibody responses in mucosal sites&#34; for non-human primates.</p><p>Though these very early stage results are encouraging, Vaxart&#39;s oral S-only COVID-19 candidate, as well as its remaining pipeline, looks to be a long ways off from generating any recurring revenue. This makes Rahimi&#39;s $18 price target unlikely to be hit in 12 months, if ever.</p><h2>Ocugen: Implied upside of 355%</h2><p>However, the crème-de-la-crème of upside opportunity among COVID-19 stocks happens to be small-cap clinical-stage biotech company <b>Ocugen</b>. If Robert LeBoyer of Noble Financial is correct with his price target of $15 a share for Ocugen, investors would enjoy a 355% ride higher over the coming 12 months.</p><p>Since this list is all about COVID-19 stocks, it shouldn&#39;t be a surprise that LeBoyer&#39;s optimism has almost everything to do with Covaxin, which is an experimental COVID-19 vaccine Ocugen has commercially licensed from India&#39;s Bharat Biotech.</p><p>In 2021, Bharat Biotech conducted a large-scale study involving Covaxin with 25,800 participants in India. This clinical trial produced a VE of 78% that ultimately was the basis for Covaxin getting the green light from the WHO. In LeBoyer&#39;s view, Covaxin offers competitive advantages over other available COVID-19 vaccines in North America.</p><p>But there&#39;s a really big asterisk that investors need to be aware of. Ocugen&#39;s commercial licensing of Covaxin only pertains to the U.S. and Canada. Covaxin could theoretically be approved for use in every market around the world except the U.S. and Canada, and Ocugen wouldn&#39;t see a dime. While the U.S. and Canada are generally lucrative markets for brand-name drugs, both countries have already invested heavily in COVID-19 treatments and may not have room on pharmacy shelves for a vaccine that produced &#34;only&#34; a 78% VE.</p><p>The other big problem for Ocugen is that its quick path to revenue was yanked away by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) one month earlier. On March 4, the FDA declined Ocugen&#39;s EUA request for pediatric patients aged 2 to 18. This means Covaxin&#39;s U.S. audience will only be adults, and Covaxin will have to go through the standard (i.e., slower) route of drug approval with the FDA.</p><p>Although Ocugen&#39;s eye-disease-related pipeline could one day be worthwhile, it&#39;s hard to see this company getting anywhere near $15 with minimal use for Covaxin in the U.S. and Canada.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 COVID-19 Stocks With Monster Upside of Up to 355%, According to Wall Street</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 COVID-19 Stocks With Monster Upside of Up to 355%, According to Wall Street\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-07 08:05 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/04/06/3-covid-19-stocks-monster-upside-355-wall-street/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>For more than two years, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has turned the world upside-down.

The <b>Nasdaq Composite</b> index sank in the first three months of 2022, falling 20% by mid-March. After that, it shot right back up. As of this writing, it&#39;s only down 10% year to date.</p><p>Predicting where the market will go over the next week or month is next to impossible, so buying companies that you feel confident in for the next five years is often the best strategy. With this in mind, you should have a watch list full of stocks that you are ready to buy no matter what the stock market does next.</p><p>My watch list is chock-full of companies right now, but <b>Figs </b>( FIGS -2.25% ) and <b>Fiverr</b> ( FVRR -4.12% ) are near the top of it.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67490ad97506e19cacb499d01cca8217\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Figs.</p><h2>1. Figs</h2><p>Figs is uniquely positioned with <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the strongest brands in a niche market. The company sells hospital scrubs for nurses and other healthcare professionals, but it carries two characteristics: a strong brand name that no competitor has been able to reach as well as a gold-standard product in the industry. The company&#39;s Net Promoter Score (NPS) -- which measures customer satisfaction on a scale of -100 to 100, with a score of 70 being considered &#34;world-class&#34; -- was over 80 at the end of 2021. This is phenomenal, beating out even some of the strongest brands. <b>Peloton</b> only has an NPS of 68.</p><p>Figs&#39; scrubs are much higher quality than its competition. The company realizes that its customers wear its products every day, often for 10 or more hours, so it has prioritized comfort and utility. As a result of this quality and brand name, Figs has been able to price its products at a pretty penny: The company achieved a nearly 72% gross margin in 2021.</p><p>To be clear, Figs does face stiff competition and pushback from price-sensitive buyers. Jaanuu, another scrubs maker, can be more attractive to the price-sensitive consumer, and with Figs&#39; scrubs being a few dollars more expensive than those of its counterpart, that could hurt the business. Still, Jaanuu has yet to reach Figs&#39; level of brand recognition, which is a major selling point.</p><p>The company&#39;s adoption by healthcare workers has been nothing short of impressive. Figs had 1.9 million active customers in Q4 2021 who generated nearly $420 million in revenue for the year, up 60% from a year ago. And now, the company has expanded into a wider array of products, offering everything from outerwear to lifestyle products like sweatshirts and joggers that can be worn outside of work. Lifestyle products only represented 17% of revenue in Q4, but management believes this segment is just getting started.</p><p>With the U.S. healthcare apparel market worth $12 billion, Figs still has plenty of room to grow. The company also has aspirations to expand internationally, which could push its opportunity to $79 billion.</p><p>There is no doubt that the company&#39;s potential is immense, and considering Figs is trading at just 8.6 times sales -- not much higher than other apparel companies like <b>Lululemon</b> -- it&#39;s near the top of my watch list, and it should be on yours too.</p><h2>2. Fiverr</h2><p>Fiverr has been hammered recently, falling more than 77% from its all-time high set in January 2021. The company is one of the leading platforms for connecting freelancers with businesses, so it naturally gained popularity during the COVID-19 pandemic.</p><p>However, as the world began to reopen, many investors lost faith in the company, thinking that demand for its services would fall. On the contrary, Fiverr has seen continued success. Fiverr posted record revenue of $298 million for 2021, which grew a staggering 57% from 2020.</p><p>A driver of this was the company&#39;s take rate increase -- the portion of revenue that Fiverr keeps to itself from every transaction -- which is now over 29%. Considering that active buyers on the platform grew 23% year over year at the end of 2021, the value that Fiverr brings to its buyers seems to be worth the price hike.</p><p>The company did lose $65 million in 2021, but this is not as worrisome as one might think.

The Nasdaq Composite index sank in the first three months of 2022, falling 20% by mid-March. After that, it shot right back up. As of this writing, it's only down 10% year to date.Predicting where the market will go over the next week or month is next to impossible, so buying companies that you feel confident in for the next five years is often the best strategy. With this in mind, you should have a watch list full of stocks that you are ready to buy no matter what the stock market does next.My watch list is chock-full of companies right now, but Figs ( FIGS -2.25% ) and Fiverr ( FVRR -4.12% ) are near the top of it.Image source: Figs.1. FigsFigs is uniquely positioned with one of the strongest brands in a niche market. The company sells hospital scrubs for nurses and other healthcare professionals, but it carries two characteristics: a strong brand name that no competitor has been able to reach as well as a gold-standard product in the industry. The company's Net Promoter Score (NPS) -- which measures customer satisfaction on a scale of -100 to 100, with a score of 70 being considered \"world-class\" -- was over 80 at the end of 2021. This is phenomenal, beating out even some of the strongest brands. Peloton only has an NPS of 68.Figs' scrubs are much higher quality than its competition. The company realizes that its customers wear its products every day, often for 10 or more hours, so it has prioritized comfort and utility. As a result of this quality and brand name, Figs has been able to price its products at a pretty penny: The company achieved a nearly 72% gross margin in 2021.To be clear, Figs does face stiff competition and pushback from price-sensitive buyers. Jaanuu, another scrubs maker, can be more attractive to the price-sensitive consumer, and with Figs' scrubs being a few dollars more expensive than those of its counterpart, that could hurt the business. Still, Jaanuu has yet to reach Figs' level of brand recognition, which is a major selling point.The company's adoption by healthcare workers has been nothing short of impressive. Figs had 1.9 million active customers in Q4 2021 who generated nearly $420 million in revenue for the year, up 60% from a year ago. And now, the company has expanded into a wider array of products, offering everything from outerwear to lifestyle products like sweatshirts and joggers that can be worn outside of work. Lifestyle products only represented 17% of revenue in Q4, but management believes this segment is just getting started.With the U.S. healthcare apparel market worth $12 billion, Figs still has plenty of room to grow. The company also has aspirations to expand internationally, which could push its opportunity to $79 billion.There is no doubt that the company's potential is immense, and considering Figs is trading at just 8.6 times sales -- not much higher than other apparel companies like Lululemon -- it's near the top of my watch list, and it should be on yours too.2. FiverrFiverr has been hammered recently, falling more than 77% from its all-time high set in January 2021. The company is one of the leading platforms for connecting freelancers with businesses, so it naturally gained popularity during the COVID-19 pandemic.However, as the world began to reopen, many investors lost faith in the company, thinking that demand for its services would fall. On the contrary, Fiverr has seen continued success. Fiverr posted record revenue of $298 million for 2021, which grew a staggering 57% from 2020.A driver of this was the company's take rate increase -- the portion of revenue that Fiverr keeps to itself from every transaction -- which is now over 29%. Considering that active buyers on the platform grew 23% year over year at the end of 2021, the value that Fiverr brings to its buyers seems to be worth the price hike.The company did lose $65 million in 2021, but this is not as worrisome as one might think. Its $35.4 million in 2021 free cash flow can fuel most of this loss, and the $192 million in cash and securities on its balance sheet could help fund the rest.It's clear that Fiverr's service is still valuable to millions of businesses around the world, and that might not change as long as freelancers continue to enjoy working from home. At nine times sales, the stock looks especially appealing today. Investors might want to consider owning this company, even if the market continues to swing up and down over the coming months.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":119,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013295890,"gmtCreate":1648732375353,"gmtModify":1676534387446,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578476625539127","idStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Is it going to hit the $100 mark?","listText":"Is it going to hit the $100 mark?","text":"Is it going to hit the $100 mark?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013295890","repostId":"1141361635","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1141361635","pubTimestamp":1648731658,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1141361635?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-31 21:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Micron is Processing Strong Revenues, Can it Continue?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1141361635","media":"TipRanks","summary":"Micron Technology, Inc.

(MU) is a major player in the rapidly growing semiconductor sector. Despite a significant sell-off like most other semiconductor stocks over the last month due to macro issues and investor worries, the stock has risen about 12% in the last six months.The corporation recently reported excellent fiscal second-quarter financial results, with both revenues and profitability surpassed analyst expectations. In addition, the firm provided a positive fiscal Q3 outlook, which explains the stock’s gain on Wednesday.What do its Q2 Earnings Results Indicate?Micron has been delivering substantial growth, especially over the past couple of years. The company’s Q2 2022 results crushed the market’s expectations by reporting a nearly 25% year-over-year surge in revenues. According to MU, revenues were primarily driven by robust performance across data centers.Meanwhile, adjusted earnings per share increased 8.6% to $2.14 per share year-over-year.In addition to the exceptional results, Micron’s guidance for the upcoming quarter thrilled the market. Adjusted revenue is expected to be in the range of $8.5-$8.9 billion, with adjusted earnings of $2.36 to $2.56 per share, which is higher than consensus projections of $8.06 billion and $2.21 per share, respectively.The findings reveal that Micron is benefiting from a better price environment for both its NAND and DRAM memory products. Furthermore, as enterprises spend extensively in digital ecosystems to extend their cloud and hybrid platforms, Micron’s data center processors should continue to remain in high demand.Wall Street’s TakeOn TipRanks, Micron stock commands a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 17 Buys and one Hold. As for price targets, the average MU stock price prediction of $116.83 implies an almost 48% upside potential from the current level.Bottom LineMicron stock is all set to continue its rally in 2022, driven by the high demand for memory, storage, and advanced processors in the market. Further, Micron’s technological leadership across DRAM and NAND, 5G momentum, accelerating demand for data-center chips, strong financials, and, robust product portfolio should all help the company gain traction.However, existing supply challenges and expectations of costs to rise could limit the upside in Micron stock to some extent.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":502,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013298654,"gmtCreate":1648731948452,"gmtModify":1676534387390,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578476625539127","idStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It's about time to have some good news","listText":"It's about time to have some good news","text":"It's about time to have some good news","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013298654","repostId":"1175936357","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1175936357","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1648729492,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1175936357?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-31 20:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Sundial Growers Completes Acquisition Of Alcanna For $255.55M In Stock And Cash","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1175936357","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Sundial Growers Inc. completed acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Alc","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Sundial Growers Inc.</b> <b>completed</b> <b>acquisition</b> <b>of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Alcanna Inc.</b> pursuant to a plan of arrangement,<b> for total consideration of approximately</b> <b>CA$320 million ($255.55 million) consisting of cash and common shares of Sundial</b>.</p><p>Pursuant to the transaction, <b>former holders of Alcannashares are entitled to receive 8.85 Sundial</b> <b>shares and</b> <b>CA$1.50 in cash for each Alcannashare</b>.

Therefore, subscribers would only need to pay a monthly fee. Apple would manage the program through a subscriber&#39;s Apple account, similar to how they have subscribed to other Apple services.</p><p>Notably, it&#39;s different from its current installment programs. Bloomberg noted (edited): &#34;The monthly charge wouldn&#39;t be the price of the device split across 12 or 24 months. Rather, it would be a yet-to-be-determined monthly fee that depends on which device the user chooses.&#34;</p><p>We believe that this could be a noteworthy development in Apple&#39;s services strategy. Apple has been moving ahead with monetizing its massive hardware active installed base that has exceeded 1.65B. Of these, it reported that 785M have signed up as subscribers for its suite of services in FQ1&#39;22 (CQ4&#39;21).</p><p>Apple&#39;s premium smartphone leadership has undoubtedly helped it extend its lead in its segment. For example, Counterpoint Research pointed out that Apple has continued to expand its premium segment market share in China. It accentuated thatApple captured 63.5% in the premium segment share in 2021, compared to 55.4% in 2020. Therefore, Apple has capitalized on Huawei&#39;s demise with incredible &#34;ruthlessness,&#34; despite the best efforts from its Chinese smartphone rivals.</p><p>However, according to StatCounter, Android remains the most important mobile OS globally, with adevice share of 71%. Therefore, it&#39;s clear that most users are still equipped with much cheaper Android phones, and Apple has yet to penetrate this segment.</p><p>While the $429 iPhone SE 5G holds promise, the Street has projected just about 30M units this year. Furthermore, DIGITIMES also reported thatApple shipped about 25M to 30M unitsof its previous iPhone SE in 2020 in its first year of release. Moreover, Counterpoint Research also highlighted that it accounted for about &#34;12% of Apple&#39;s total iPhone unit salesfrom its launch in Q2 2020 to Q4 2021 - with Japan and US the biggest markets for the device globally.&#34;</p><p>Therefore, if Apple wants to make its mark in the low to mid-segment and gain share against Android, a subscription service makes tremendous sense. China&#39;s 5G smartphone penetration rate has already reached about 80%. But, the opportunities in the rest of Asia and Europe could offer Apple tremendous potential. Notably, Apple needs to make its iPhone more affordable without impinging on its treasured margins. Bloomberg&#39;s Mark Gurman even suggested that Apple launch a $199 iPhone SE 5G to penetrate the low to mid-tier segment more effectively before its Peek Performance event in March. He emphasized (edited):</p><blockquote><i>A device priced at $200 could make inroads in regions like Africa, South America, and parts of Asia that are currently Android strongholds</i>.</blockquote><blockquote>That would let Apple<i>sign up more customers for services</i>, potentially making a low-end iPhone quite lucrative for Apple in the long run. But so far, the company has steered well clear of that approach.</blockquote><blockquote>In 2013, when carrier subsidies began to disappear and demand for a lower-cost iPhone grew, Apple executives said they wouldn&#39;t release a cheap model just to blindly chase market share. It did put out the lower-end SE in 2016, but the phone was $399-well above the level of many Androids-and the price never came down over the following five years.<i>The company has stuck by Steve Jobs&#39; &#39;don&#39;t ship junk&#39; ethos.</i>-Bloomberg</blockquote><p>Furthermore, the 5G upgrade cycle is still in its early stages and gaining rapid adoption. Counterpoint Research also highlighted in a recent note thatglobal 5G smartphone penetrationsurpassed 4G for the first time in January 2022.</p><p>Therefore, there&#39;s a considerable opportunity for Apple to leverage this 5G wave to encourage switchers from Android to iOS. Hence, we believe a hardware subscription strategy could be massive for the Cupertino company to spur the adoption of its 5G devices.</p><p>We believe that Apple can continue innovating and introducing effective ideas to capture the segment Android has traditionally dominated without necessarily sacrificing its brand value and margins.</p><h2>Is AAPL Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?</h2><p>AAPL stock is slightly overvalued, but not by much. Therefore, if you need a higher margin of safety, you can consider taking a 10-15% haircut.</p><p>Otherwise, if you have a firm conviction of Apple&#39;s execution ability, the current price could offer a suitable opportunity to increase exposure.</p><p>Furthermore, we think Apple has several optionalities that have not been factored into its stock price. And the potential hardware subscription strategy adds to its growing list of monetization potential.</p><p>As such, we reiterate our Buy rating on AAPL stock.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1638401102509","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Apple: Plan For iPhone Subscriptions Could Be Massive - Here's Why</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nApple: Plan For iPhone Subscriptions Could Be Massive - Here's Why\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-27 08:47 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4497874-apple-iphone-subscriptions-could-be-massive><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Bloomberg reported that Apple is considering a hardware subscription strategy for its devices.We discuss why it could help Apple penetrate more effectively into Android's traditional strongholds and ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4497874-apple-iphone-subscriptions-could-be-massive\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4497874-apple-iphone-subscriptions-could-be-massive","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1155138099","content_text":"Bloomberg reported that Apple is considering a hardware subscription strategy for its devices.We discuss why it could help Apple penetrate more effectively into Android's traditional strongholds and take share.We also discuss why AAPL stock is a Buy.PhillDanze/iStock Editorial via Getty ImagesInvestment ThesisApple Inc.

Of these, it reported that 785M have signed up as subscribers for its suite of services in FQ1'22 (CQ4'21).Apple's premium smartphone leadership has undoubtedly helped it extend its lead in its segment. For example, Counterpoint Research pointed out that Apple has continued to expand its premium segment market share in China. It accentuated thatApple captured 63.5% in the premium segment share in 2021, compared to 55.4% in 2020. Therefore, Apple has capitalized on Huawei's demise with incredible \"ruthlessness,\" despite the best efforts from its Chinese smartphone rivals.However, according to StatCounter, Android remains the most important mobile OS globally, with adevice share of 71%. Therefore, it's clear that most users are still equipped with much cheaper Android phones, and Apple has yet to penetrate this segment.While the $429 iPhone SE 5G holds promise, the Street has projected just about 30M units this year. Furthermore, DIGITIMES also reported thatApple shipped about 25M to 30M unitsof its previous iPhone SE in 2020 in its first year of release. Moreover, Counterpoint Research also highlighted that it accounted for about \"12% of Apple's total iPhone unit salesfrom its launch in Q2 2020 to Q4 2021 - with Japan and US the biggest markets for the device globally.\"Therefore, if Apple wants to make its mark in the low to mid-segment and gain share against Android, a subscription service makes tremendous sense. China's 5G smartphone penetration rate has already reached about 80%. But, the opportunities in the rest of Asia and Europe could offer Apple tremendous potential. Notably, Apple needs to make its iPhone more affordable without impinging on its treasured margins. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman even suggested that Apple launch a $199 iPhone SE 5G to penetrate the low to mid-tier segment more effectively before its Peek Performance event in March. He emphasized (edited):A device priced at $200 could make inroads in regions like Africa, South America, and parts of Asia that are currently Android strongholds.That would let Applesign up more customers for services, potentially making a low-end iPhone quite lucrative for Apple in the long run. But so far, the company has steered well clear of that approach.In 2013, when carrier subsidies began to disappear and demand for a lower-cost iPhone grew, Apple executives said they wouldn't release a cheap model just to blindly chase market share. It did put out the lower-end SE in 2016, but the phone was $399-well above the level of many Androids-and the price never came down over the following five years.The company has stuck by Steve Jobs' 'don't ship junk' ethos.-BloombergFurthermore, the 5G upgrade cycle is still in its early stages and gaining rapid adoption. Counterpoint Research also highlighted in a recent note thatglobal 5G smartphone penetrationsurpassed 4G for the first time in January 2022.Therefore, there's a considerable opportunity for Apple to leverage this 5G wave to encourage switchers from Android to iOS. Hence, we believe a hardware subscription strategy could be massive for the Cupertino company to spur the adoption of its 5G devices.We believe that Apple can continue innovating and introducing effective ideas to capture the segment Android has traditionally dominated without necessarily sacrificing its brand value and margins.Is AAPL Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?AAPL stock is slightly overvalued, but not by much. Therefore, if you need a higher margin of safety, you can consider taking a 10-15% haircut.Otherwise, if you have a firm conviction of Apple's execution ability, the current price could offer a suitable opportunity to increase exposure.Furthermore, we think Apple has several optionalities that have not been factored into its stock price. And the potential hardware subscription strategy adds to its growing list of monetization potential.As such, we reiterate our Buy rating on AAPL stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":277,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9013042097,"gmtCreate":1648660076788,"gmtModify":1676534373494,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578476625539127","idStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Is there any pharma or industrial stock like these?","listText":"Is there any pharma or industrial stock like these?","text":"Is there any pharma or industrial stock like these?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9013042097","repostId":"2223092538","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2223092538","pubTimestamp":1648644301,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2223092538?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-30 20:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Growth Stocks With Monster Upside of Up to 331%, According to Wall Street","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2223092538","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Select analysts believe these fast-paced stocks can soar over the next 12 months.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>KEY POINTS</b></p><ul><li>If these high-water price targets are hit, investors would enjoy upside ranging from 179% to 331%.</li><li>Analysts&#39; lofty price targets often fail to capture the challenges high-growth companies are facing.</li></ul><p>Over the long run, the stock market has proved to be a wealth-building machine.

They also carry a special characteristic that is shared by 63% of the stocks owned by Buffett in his <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b> ( BRK.A 1.92% ) ( BRK.B 1.81% ) portfolio.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/139f2005bebaa471067af13c958a38a8\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"393\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><h2>AbbVie: Building a pipeline to keep revenue flowing</h2><p>AbbVie is one of the smallest holdings in Buffett&#39;s Berkshire Hathaway portfolio, at only 0.1% of the portfolio&#39;s total holdings. But that&#39;s the only thing small about this leading innovator in biopharmaceuticals that has seen its stock price grow 53% over the past year -- crushing the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>&#39;s 14.7% one-year return.</p><p>AbbVie has experienced strong growth of its best-selling drug, Humira, which helped the company realize a 22.7% increase in net revenue in 2021. That growth is expected to continue with an 8% increase in sales for Humira during 2022, but could come to a screeching slowdown in 2023. The company estimates a 45% erosion in sales as a result of biosimilar competition entering the U.S. market on the heels of an expiring patent, with a rebound not expected to happen until 2024.</p><p>To offset those losses, the company is depending on a spike in sales of two potential successors to Humira, Rinvoq and Skyrizi. Together these two medications brought in a combined $4.5 billion in 2021 and are expected to reach $15 billion in 2025. AbbVie is also seeing positive results from its Allergan acquisition in 2020, which netted the company Botox, contributing nearly $5 billion to total sales in 2021.</p><p>Going forward, the company has high expectations for a post-COVID rebound in sales of two leading cancer treatment drugs, as well as a pipeline of late-stage programs in cancer treatment. In total, the company has 13 drugs in phase 3 trials across immunology, neuroscience, eye care, oncology, and gastroenterology. Some of these drugs are already approved for certain indications, which could lead to a smoother path toward approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.</p><p>AbbVie also offers a quarterly dividend that can help keep investors engaged during times of trouble. If you include the time before AbbVie was spun off from <b>Abbott Laboratories</b>, the company has been increasing its annual dividend for 50 years, placing it among the elite class of Dividend Kings. At the current share price, the stock&#39;s annual payout of $5.64 per share results in yield of 3.5%. Over the long term, this can be quite a hefty sum due to compounding gains.</p><p>A robust pipeline of drugs combined with a hefty dividend yield of 3.5% that leads most of its big-cap pharma peers makes AbbVie a Buffett-backed stock I&#39;d see no problem investing $1,000 in.</p><h2>Verizon: Checking off boxes to keep investors satisfied</h2><p>Verizon ranks ninth in Buffett&#39;s Berkshire Hathaway portfolio of 47 stocks in terms of portfolio holding and total value. But the company&#39;s investors have not been exempt from the broader market volatility that has impacted tech stocks, as Verizon&#39;s stock price has seen a 15% decline since May of last year.</p><p>Fortunately, CEO Hans Vestberg, who came on board in 2018 after a stint as chief technology officer, has a clear plan in place that could trigger a rebound. It includes reducing the company&#39;s capital intensity to under 12%, growing dividends, paying down debt, and speeding up a timeline for share repurchases.</p><p>Boxes are already being checked off for that plan. Verizon&#39;s Q4 report highlighted a 6.5% year-over-year growth in wireless services revenue, driven by higher revenue per account, meaning existing customers are spending more. Growth is also coming from an increase in subscriptions for wireless and broadband. FiOS (its bundled service for internet, cable, and telephone) finished Q4 of last year with a 5.7% year-over-year spike in revenue, allowing the company to post its best full-year performance for FiOS since 2014.</p><p>The company expects to check off a few more boxes during 2022, starting with a continued quarterly dividend payout of $0.64 per share, to be paid on May 2 to investors of record on April 8. This represents a 5% dividend yield, topping the telecom sector average of 4.36%.</p><p>By year-end, the company is looking to complete an accelerated plan to bring 5G ultra wideband service to an additional 30 major markets serving over 175 million people -- a full year ahead of schedule. And while doing so, Vestberg has his eyes on reducing capital expenditures 9% to $16.5 billion.</p><p>If 2022 goes according to plan, the company is projecting full-year earnings per share that just slightly tops Wall Street estimates. Management is also looking for 9% to 10% growth in services revenue. Ultimately, Verizon&#39;s technological advancements should lead to new revenue, supported by acquisitions in the telecom space and collaborations with companies such as <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Meta Platforms</a></b> (formerly Facebook) as the two work toward building out the immersive digital world referred to as the metaverse.</p><p>Verizon investors should stand to gain from continued dividends and a wireless market that is projected to grow at a 15.4% compound annual rate through 2027. The company&#39;s shares currently trade at a P/E ratio of 9.6, far below the wireless telecom industry average of 30. All in all, Verizon is an excellent opportunity for long-term investors who are looking for somewhere to invest $1,000.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Have $1,000? 2 Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy</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\">\nHave $1,000? 2 Warren Buffett Stocks to Buy\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-27 08:33 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/03/26/have-1000-2-warren-buffett-stocks-to-buy/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Whether you're an investor just starting out or one who might have a limited budget, it's a good practice to invest an amount that you're willing to be without in the short term so that you can build ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/03/26/have-1000-2-warren-buffett-stocks-to-buy/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"BK4534":"瑞士信贷持仓","BK4176":"多领域控股","BRK.A":"伯克希尔","BK4581":"高盛持仓","BK4550":"红杉资本持仓","BK4533":"AQR资本管理(全球第二大对冲基金)","BRK.B":"伯克希尔B","ABBV":"艾伯维公司","VZ":"威瑞森"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/03/26/have-1000-2-warren-buffett-stocks-to-buy/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2222855376","content_text":"Whether you're an investor just starting out or one who might have a limited budget, it's a good practice to invest an amount that you're willing to be without in the short term so that you can build for the long term.

AbbVie is also seeing positive results from its Allergan acquisition in 2020, which netted the company Botox, contributing nearly $5 billion to total sales in 2021.Going forward, the company has high expectations for a post-COVID rebound in sales of two leading cancer treatment drugs, as well as a pipeline of late-stage programs in cancer treatment. In total, the company has 13 drugs in phase 3 trials across immunology, neuroscience, eye care, oncology, and gastroenterology. Some of these drugs are already approved for certain indications, which could lead to a smoother path toward approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.AbbVie also offers a quarterly dividend that can help keep investors engaged during times of trouble. If you include the time before AbbVie was spun off from Abbott Laboratories, the company has been increasing its annual dividend for 50 years, placing it among the elite class of Dividend Kings. At the current share price, the stock's annual payout of $5.64 per share results in yield of 3.5%. Over the long term, this can be quite a hefty sum due to compounding gains.A robust pipeline of drugs combined with a hefty dividend yield of 3.5% that leads most of its big-cap pharma peers makes AbbVie a Buffett-backed stock I'd see no problem investing $1,000 in.Verizon: Checking off boxes to keep investors satisfiedVerizon ranks ninth in Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway portfolio of 47 stocks in terms of portfolio holding and total value. But the company's investors have not been exempt from the broader market volatility that has impacted tech stocks, as Verizon's stock price has seen a 15% decline since May of last year.Fortunately, CEO Hans Vestberg, who came on board in 2018 after a stint as chief technology officer, has a clear plan in place that could trigger a rebound. It includes reducing the company's capital intensity to under 12%, growing dividends, paying down debt, and speeding up a timeline for share repurchases.Boxes are already being checked off for that plan. Verizon's Q4 report highlighted a 6.5% year-over-year growth in wireless services revenue, driven by higher revenue per account, meaning existing customers are spending more. Growth is also coming from an increase in subscriptions for wireless and broadband. FiOS (its bundled service for internet, cable, and telephone) finished Q4 of last year with a 5.7% year-over-year spike in revenue, allowing the company to post its best full-year performance for FiOS since 2014.The company expects to check off a few more boxes during 2022, starting with a continued quarterly dividend payout of $0.64 per share, to be paid on May 2 to investors of record on April 8. This represents a 5% dividend yield, topping the telecom sector average of 4.36%.By year-end, the company is looking to complete an accelerated plan to bring 5G ultra wideband service to an additional 30 major markets serving over 175 million people -- a full year ahead of schedule. And while doing so, Vestberg has his eyes on reducing capital expenditures 9% to $16.5 billion.If 2022 goes according to plan, the company is projecting full-year earnings per share that just slightly tops Wall Street estimates. Management is also looking for 9% to 10% growth in services revenue. Ultimately, Verizon's technological advancements should lead to new revenue, supported by acquisitions in the telecom space and collaborations with companies such as Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook) as the two work toward building out the immersive digital world referred to as the metaverse.Verizon investors should stand to gain from continued dividends and a wireless market that is projected to grow at a 15.4% compound annual rate through 2027. The company's shares currently trade at a P/E ratio of 9.6, far below the wireless telecom industry average of 30. All in all, Verizon is an excellent opportunity for long-term investors who are looking for somewhere to invest $1,000.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":236,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9010012278,"gmtCreate":1648203981692,"gmtModify":1676534316820,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578476625539127","idStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Up&nbsp;","listText":"Up&nbsp;","text":"Up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9010012278","repostId":"1153990586","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1153990586","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1648195505,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1153990586?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-25 16:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cannabis Stocks Rallied in Premarket Trading,with Clever Leaves Surging Over 25% and Sundial Growers Surging Nearly 19%","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1153990586","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Cannabis stocks rallied in premarket trading, with Clever Leaves surging over 25% and Sundial Grower","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Cannabis stocks rallied in premarket trading, with Clever Leaves surging over 25% and Sundial Growers surging nearly 19%.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/de2860f3b393d5f58f5e86601ff9c8be\" tg-width=\"322\" tg-height=\"208\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>The U.S. House of Representatives will vote on the Marijuana Opportunity, Reinvestment and Expungement (MORE) Act next week.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The House Rules Committee will begin preparing the bill for floor action on Monday, including figuring out any amendments that might be voted upon.That accomplished, the bill will move to the floor for a vote by the full House. The exact date for the vote has not yet been determined.Assuming the bill passes (as it did the last time it came up for a vote, in December 2020, by a vote of 228 to 164), it will move to the Senate for consideration.Now whatSuccess is not assured. Last time the MORE Act made it to the Senate, it died there. Also worth noting is that the Senate is working on its own marijuana legalization bill, the Cannabis Administration & Opportunity Act (CAOA), and if it passes that one, then the two legislative bodies would need to reconcile their two bills and create one final compromise bill to send to President Biden.Even then, success would not be assured, as -- at last report -- the president was himself personally opposed to legalizing cannabis.That being said, hope springs eternal for marijuana sector investors, and at the very least, the fact that a bill is moving forward in the House means that there's some forward momentum here. The more votes marijuana legalization wins in whichever house chooses to pass it, the better the odds that at some point in the not-too-distant future, the stars will align and a bill of this type will become law.Once that happens, cannabis companies can finally get to work on transforming legal sales of marijuana into actual cash profits for their shareholders.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":93,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":106479075,"gmtCreate":1620141969797,"gmtModify":1704339287510,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578476625539127","idStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"?‍♂️","listText":"?‍♂️","text":"?‍♂️","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/106479075","repostId":"1140575890","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":310,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":109648921,"gmtCreate":1619695045063,"gmtModify":1704728126325,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578476625539127","idStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"$ make $","listText":"$ make $","text":"$ make $","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/109648921","repostId":"1104198438","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1104198438","pubTimestamp":1619623222,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1104198438?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-28 23:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Here’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1104198438","media":"Yahoo","summary":"Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to","content":"<p>Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>\n<p>The famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ballooned to a value of $281.17 billion by the end of 2020, or more than double the cumulative cost of building these stakes at $108.62 billion, according toBerkshire's latest annual shareholder letter.The value of the portfolio's total equity investments carried at market was up 13.4% compared to year-end 2019.

This may serve as a forum for the pair to discuss additional investments purchased and sold in the first months of 2021, ahead of formal 13-F filing reveals later in the month. Last year, Buffett disclosed at the annual meeting thatBerkshire had sold out of its entire interest in the airline stocksAmerican Airlines (AAL), United Airlines (UAL), Delta Air Lines (DAL) and Southwest Airlines (LUV)in the first quarter of 2020.</p>\n<p>Here's how Berkshire's top 10 stock investments by market value fared over the course of the pandemic, based on the stakes disclosed in the Buffett's latest annual shareholder letter.*</p>\n<p><b>Apple</b></p>\n<p>Buffett pointed to Apple (AAPL) as one of the most valuable assets for Berkshire Hathaway alongside the firm's insurance operation and BNSF Railway, thanks in large part to the iPhone-maker's hefty share repurchases.</p>\n<p>Berkshire owned 907,559,761 shares of Apple as of the end of December for a total market value of $120.4 billion. By contrast, the firm spent just $31 billion accumulating this stake since late 2016.</p>\n<p>That massive holding — comprising 44% of Berkshire's disclosed assets, according to Bloomberg data — came even after the firm pocketed $11 billion after selling a small portion of its position in 2020.</p>\n<p>\"Despite that sale – voila! – Berkshire now owns 5.4% of Apple,\" Buffett said in the shareholder letter. \"That increase was costless to us,<b>coming about because Apple</b>has continuously repurchased its shares, thereby substantially shrinking the number it now has outstanding.\"</p>\n<p>Though Buffett hashistorically steered away from investing in technology companiesin favor of businesses he has understood more deeply, Berkshire's major holding in Apple proved auspicious during the pandemic, when Big Tech companies led the market higher.</p>\n<p>Apple's stock posted a total return of 82% in 2020, outperforming every other \"FAANG\" stock including Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Alphabet. The run-up has since cooled in early 2021, however, with the stock posting a total return of just 1.4% for the year-to-date through market close on April 27.</p>\n<p><b>Bank of America</b></p>\n<p>While Berkshire Hathaway unloaded many of its bank stock holdings over the course of 2020, it increased its stake in Bank of America (BAC).</p>\n<p>The firm held 1,032,952,006 shares of Bank of America as of the end of 2020, after adding 85.1 million shares in the third quarter alone. This gave Berkshire Hathaway an ownership stake of 11.9%.</p>\n<p>By the end of last year, the value of that holding was worth $31.3 million, and cost $14.6 million to amass.</p>\n<p>The increase in the size of Berkshire Hathaway's Bank of America holding bucked the trend of the other bank stocks in the portfolio last year. Berkshire cut its holdings of Wells Fargo (EFC) from 345.7 million shares at year-end 2019 to 52.4 million by year-end 2020, and completely exited its holdings in JPMorgan Chase (JPM) and M&amp;T Bank Corp (MTB).</p>\n<p>With interest rates sliding amid ultra-accommodative monetary policy during the pandemic, bank stocks were among the worst performers last year. Bank of America shares fell nearly 14% in 2020, underperforming against both the S&amp;P 500 and S&amp;P 500 financials sector, which dropped just 4.1%. However, with interest rates back on the rise and consumer spending accelerating, shares have already started to reverse these declines, and Bank of America shares have risen 32% so far in 2021.</p>\n<p><b>The Coca-Cola Company</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway's stake in Coca-Cola (KO) remained unchanged between 2019 and 2020 at 400 million shares, offering 9.3% ownership in the beverage giant. Buffett has been a long-time investor in the firm, having first purchased shares in Berkshire's portfolio in 1988. It has comprised a significant portion of the firm's total holdings and mark value value ever since.</p>\n<p>This long-term investment has paid off for the company, with the market value of the shares held totaling $21.9 billion at the end of 2020. Berkshire spent just under $1.3 billion building its stake in Coca-Cola.</p>\n<p>While Berkshire's overall return on its investment in Coca-Cola has been formidable, the stock did underperform the broader market in 2020. Coca-Cola shares declined 0.9% during the year as a dearth of live events and concessions weighed on sales, though the stock did still eke out a total return of 2.44% during the year with reinvested dividends. Shares have extended a run of underperformance in 2021, with the stock falling 1.5% so far this year.</p>\n<p><b>American Express</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway held 151,610,700 shares of American Express (AXP) as of the end of 2020, with the stock comprising another of the firm's long-standing investments. Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.</p>\n<p>As a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.</p>\n<p>While Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"</p>\n<p>More recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&amp;P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.</p>\n<p><b>Verizon Communications</b></p>\n<p>Verizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.</p>\n<p>The holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.</p>\n<p>But even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Moody's Corporation</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.</p>\n<p>The credit rating agency outperformed the S&amp;P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>U.S. Bancorp</b></p>\n<p>U.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.</p>\n<p>As was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.</p>\n<p><b>BYD</b></p>\n<p>Shenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).</p>\n<p>Berkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.</p>\n<p><b>Chevron</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.</p>\n<p>By year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.</p>\n<p>Berkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&amp;P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.</p>\n<p><b>Charter Communications</b></p>\n<p>Charter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020. In August of last year, Berkshire reported it had cut its stake by 4% to a total of about 5.2 million shares.</p>\n<p>The sale still left Berkshire with a 2.7% stake in the company, and holdings worth $3.45 billion by year-end 2020, at a total cost of just $904 million. Berkshire had beenaccumulating its stake in Charter since 2014.</p>\n<p>Shares of Charter Communications rose 36% in 2020, but have given back some of these gains after dipping 1.2% so far in 2021.</p>\n<p><i>* This analysis excludes Berkshire Hathaway's Kraft Heinz holding of 325,442,152 shares, since this is held using a different accounting method. Berkshire reported that the market value of these shares was $11.3 billion as of December 31, 2020.</i></p>","source":"lsy1584348713084","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>Here’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic</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\">\nHere’s how Warren Buffett’s top investments fared during the pandemic\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-28 23:20 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html><strong>Yahoo</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.\nThe famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"MCO":"穆迪","01211":"比亚迪股份","BAC":"美国银行","USB":"美国合众银行","002594":"比亚迪","AAPL":"苹果","AXP":"美国运通","CHTR":"特许通讯","CVX":"雪佛龙","VZ":"威瑞森","KO":"可口可乐"},"source_url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-how-warren-buffetts-top-investments-fared-during-the-pandemic-151003576.html","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1104198438","content_text":"Plenty of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A,BRK-B) top stock picks have been home runs during and prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.\nThe famed stock portfolio run by billionaire investor Warren Buffett ballooned to a value of $281.17 billion by the end of 2020, or more than double the cumulative cost of building these stakes at $108.62 billion, according toBerkshire's latest annual shareholder letter.The value of the portfolio's total equity investments carried at market was up 13.4% compared to year-end 2019.

Berkshire began building its stake nearly six decades ago, paying a total of just $1.29 billion to amass a stake worth $18.33 billion at the end of 2020.\nAs a business relying heavily on both consumer and corporate spending, however, American Express' suffered a blow in 2020, with its stock dipping 2.9%.\nWhile Buffett has characterized Berkshire's holdings of marketable stocks as a \"collection of businesses\" in which he shares in long-term prosperity but does not control operations, that hasn't stopped him from imparting advice to executives at some of his top-held companies — especially during the nadir in business and economic activity during the pandemic.\n\"I talked to our largest shareholder, Warren Buffett, and I've talked to him during this time, the one thing he has and will continue to always point out to us is that the brand is special,\" American Express CEO Stephen Squeri said during an analyst day presentation in mid-March 2020. \"And that brand needs to be cared for, the brand needs to be invested in and we will continue to do so through tough times and through the good times.\"\nMore recently, however, American Express's operating results and stock have picked back up. The stock outperformed the S&P 500 with a rise of 25% for the year-to-date. And Squeri saidin a fourth-quarter updatethat non-travel and entertainment spend exceeded pre-COVID levels for a second straight quarter, and that trends overall have \"continued to steadily improve,\" despite some lingering impacts from the pandemic.\nVerizon Communications\nVerizon Communications (VZ), the parent company of Yahoo Finance, was one of Berkshire's new purchases in the second half of 2020.\nBerkshire revealed it amassed a stake of 146,716,496 shares of the telecommunications giant last year, good for a 3.5% ownership of the company.\nThe holding was worth $8.62 billion as of year-end, representing one of several major investments Berkshire held below cost, which in this case came in at $8.69 billion. The decline likely would have been greater had Berkshire purchased the sizable stake earlier, however, with Verizon's stock having declined 4.3% excluding reinvested dividends over the the full-year 2020.\nBut even given the pandemic, Verizon's business held up relatively strongly. Full-year 2020 sales edged down by just 3%, and adjusted EBITDA was flat year-over-year. Still, the stock has declined by 4% for 2021-to-date, or by 2% with reinvested dividends.\nMoody's Corporation\nBerkshire Hathaway had a 13.2% ownership stake in Moody's Corporation (MCO) at the end of 2020, with 24,669,778 shares worth a total of $7.16 billion. That generated a notable return for Berkshire, with the cost of building this stake amounting to just $248 million. Berkshire first held shares of Moody's Corporation in 2000.\nThe credit rating agency outperformed the S&P 500 in 2020 and has since performed about in-line with the market during the COVID-19 recovery. Shares rose by 22% over the course of 2020 and have increased by 12.5% for the year-to-date.\nU.S. Bancorp\nU.S. Bancorp (USB) was one of a number of holdings Berkshire Hathaway trimmed during the pandemic.\nThe firm's stake in the parent company of U.S. Bank National Association was reduced to 148,176,166 shares by year-end 2020, compared to 149,497,787 in 2019. However, Berkshire Hathaway stopped short of fully exiting its position in the firm, as it did with some other big banks. Berkshire's position in U.S. Bancorp was worth just over $6.9 billion in year-end 2020, compared to total cost of $5.6 billion.\nAs was the case for many financial institutions during the pandemic, U.S. Bancorp's stock came under pressure in the low-rate environment of 2020, but has since rebounded. Shares slid by 21.4% in 2020, but have so far risen more than 25% for the year-to-date.\nBYD\nShenzhen-based BYD Co. (BYDDF) marks one of just a couple non-U.S. companies in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio as of the end of 2020. The electric-vehicle manufacturer's stock was also the best-performing in Berkshire's portfolio during the pandemic on a price-appreciation basis, consistent with the outperformance among tech and growth stocks seen over the course of last year in the broader market. In fact, the market value of Berkshire's BYD Co. stake was more than double that of its other major auto-related position in General Motors (GM).\nBerkshire purchased the entirety of his 225 million share stake in BYD back in 2008 for $232 million, afterBuffett's business partner Charlie Munger toutedthe vision of its founder Wang Chuanfu. The value of that stake ballooned to $5.9 billion at the end of 2020. Shares of BYD surged by 432% in 2020 alone, though they have dipped by 13.5% for the year-to-date as some of the exuberance around electric-vehicle stocks moderated at the start of this year.\nChevron\nBerkshire Hathaway pounced at the opportunity to purchase Chevron (CVX) during a dip in oil prices and energy stocks last year, snapping up 48,498,965 million shares at a total cost of $4.02 billion. This represented 2.5% of shares outstanding for the stock.\nBy year-end, the market value of Berkshire's stake increased slightly to about $4.1 billion, with energy prices back on the rise following the worst points of spring 2020. Chevron's stock slid 30% between year-end 2019 and year-end 2020.\nBerkshire's investment has already begun to appreciate in value in the early months of 2021, with energy as the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 for the year-to-date. Chevron shares have risen 21.6% so far this year for a price appreciation nearly double that of the broader market, not including reinvested dividends.\nCharter Communications\nCharter Communications (CHTR) marked another holding Berkshire Hathaway trimmed in 2020. In August of last year, Berkshire reported it had cut its stake by 4% to a total of about 5.2 million shares.\nThe sale still left Berkshire with a 2.7% stake in the company, and holdings worth $3.45 billion by year-end 2020, at a total cost of just $904 million. Berkshire had beenaccumulating its stake in Charter since 2014.\nShares of Charter Communications rose 36% in 2020, but have given back some of these gains after dipping 1.2% so far in 2021.\n* This analysis excludes Berkshire Hathaway's Kraft Heinz holding of 325,442,152 shares, since this is held using a different accounting method. Berkshire reported that the market value of these shares was $11.3 billion as of December 31, 2020.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":385,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":109842583,"gmtCreate":1619685826942,"gmtModify":1704727992390,"author":{"id":"3578476625539127","authorId":"3578476625539127","name":"Justinslh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4aace6371636c60f0a3a97aacd94721c","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578476625539127","idStr":"3578476625539127"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Call]&nbsp;","listText":"[Call]&nbsp;","text":"[Call]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/109842583","repostId":"1143067327","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":353,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
