Q1","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1196471828","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Renewable energy stocks haven’t had a great 12 months. In a broad example, the Invesco Solar Portfol","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Renewable energy stocks haven’t had a great 12 months. In a broad example, the <b>Invesco Solar Portfolio ETF</b> has lost nearly half of its value over the past year.</p><p>Two major factors have contributed to the decline in value for many renewable energy stocks. For one, the wind and solar industries haven’t received the sorts of subsidies that traders were hoping for from the Biden Administration.</p><p>For another, many green energy companies don’t generate much in the way of near-term profits or cash flows. Thus, they’ve gotten caught up in the broad market-based selling around all sorts of speculative growth companies.</p><p>It’s certainly not all blue skies ahead for the renewable energy industry. Shortcomings — particularly as it relates to lack of storage capacity — have become painfully apparent in recent months.</p><p>Look at thespiraling electricity crisisthis winter in Europe for one example. Still, after seeing many renewable energy stocks drop by 50% or more, it’s time to take a fresh look.</p><p>Here are seven names that could stand out, even during this volatile period for the renewable energy industry:</p><ul><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RUN\">Sunrun</a></li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FSLR\">First Solar</a></li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NEE\">NextEra</a></li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ED\">Consolidated Edison</a></li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ORA\">Ormat Technologies</a></li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AY\">Atlantica Sustainable Infrastructure</a></li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GE\">General Electric</a></li></ul><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RUN\">Sunrun</a></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3fe3ca005cdc776cbe90fa37af548247\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Source: IgorGolovniov / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Solar energy stocks were blazing hot at the beginning of the Biden Administration. Between the November 2020 election and Inauguration Day 2021, the price of Sunrun stock soared almost 52%.</p><p>Particularly with Democrats in control of the House of Representatives and Senate, in addition to the presidency, a robust era of clean energy spending was supposed to commence.</p><p>However, there’s been limited legislative traction for green energy. Much of Washington D.C.’s attention has understandably turned to more immediate issues such as dealing with the societal and economic impacts of the Covid-19 crisis.</p><p>Attempts at a grand series of Build Back Better infrastructure bills have gotten pruned down to a much-smaller package.</p><p>This has hit the solar industry hard with smaller, more-speculative names like SunRun getting walloped. RUN stock is down nearly 70% over the past year.</p><p>Sunrun operates in the home solar space and has shown incredible growth — north of 30% — despite already having a large installed base.</p><p>However, Sunrun has gotten hit on all fronts. The lack of expected subsidy support has dimmed near-term expectations. Meanwhile, supply chain and inflation issues are a threat to crush profit margins.</p><p>In addition, the company borrowed heavily during brighter times and now faces growing investor skepticism around its balance sheet.</p><p>There’s plenty of risk at SunRun to be sure. However, with the stock down from a 52-week high of $85 to just $25 now, RUN stock is one of the highest-voltage ways to get exposure to a potential solar industry rebound.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FSLR\">FirstSolar</a></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2ffff4a5dd5814d900be77ab84e7fc9b\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Source: IgorGolovniov / Shutterstock.com</p><p>First Solar is a more conservative way to play the solar industry. It is one of the leading manufacturers of panels.</p><p>It’s not nearly as much of a growth play as something like Sunrun. However, it’s actually highly profitable, which is something of a rarity in the solar industry at the moment.</p><p>The company will have earned roughly $3.50 per share for full-year 2021 once it announces results later this month. That will put the stock around 20x full-year 2021 earnings.</p><p>Analysts see First Solar’s earnings dropping in 2022. After that, however, the consensus has 2023 earnings recovering to 2021 levels, giving First Solar a solid base of profitability in the intermediate term.</p><p>Some of First Solar’s strategic advantage is due to using a differentiated technology for making its panels as opposed to commodity producers overseas.</p><p>Another element of its success came from the Trump Administration’s move to slap tariffs on imported solar panels. Biden’s team recently announced that it will easebut not altogether eliminatethese tariffs.</p><p>That’s an additional win for First Solar, which has invested heavily in its Ohio-based manufacturing facilities.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NEE\">NextEra</a></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea57d4c3dcede125d4c0c41df15c24f2\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Source: madamF / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Another way to get involved in the renewable energy wave is through power utilities. Not all utilities have a strong renewable energy angle. A few stand out, however. Florida-based NextEra is one of the leaders in solar power deployment nationally.</p><p>It does have a traditional regulated utility business that offers stable predictable cash flows.</p><p>Where things get more exciting is with its separate arm in the construction and design of large-scale renewable power projects around the country. This gives NextEra an attractive source of additional income.</p><p>These development projects tend to be in a competitive market and thus can earn higher returns on equity than traditional utility power where returns are generally set by state regulators.</p><p>Additionally, NextEra has benefited in a huge way from passive index fund flows. NextEra scores highly on environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards and thus is a leading investment for many funds in the socially-conscious, green, and millennial categories.</p><p>As more and more money floods into these ESG-type investments, NextEra should be one of the largest recipients of these inflows.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ED\">Consolidated Edison</a></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b519d2089cfc63cb20a58bf4c862124e\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Source: Pand P Studio / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Consolidated Edison is another of the pioneers in the renewable utility space. The New York City power company is one of the world’s oldest power utilities.</p><p>Even with its storied history, it has managed to keep up with the times. Indeed, today, it’s now the second-largest operator of utility-scale solar power in the U.S.</p><p>That’s good in its own right. Given the political climate on the East Coast, the renewable focus is particularly useful. ConEd is already ahead of the curve in terms of upping its investments in green energy while other utilities will have to rush to meet phase-outs around the use of dirtier fuels.\\</p><p>From an investor’s perspective, ConEd is a classic growth and income holding. The company has increased its dividend for 48 years in a row, making it one of the few Dividend Aristocrats in the power utility sector. ED stock has delivered steadily rising dividends and some capital appreciation for decades, and its quick adoption of renewables should keep that streak going for many years to come.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ORA\">Ormat Technologies</a></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9bb323840c8fd6a1dc442971fea5ffd3\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Source: riekephotos / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Ormat Technologies is the global leader in geothermal power generation. The company was founded way back in 1965 and has developed more than 190 power plants over the decades. It has been in the green energy game for a long time, giving it a level of domain expertise and cyclical knowledge that most newer rivals don’t yet possess.</p><p>For a long time, analysts viewed geothermal as a fringe alternative in the power generation business. However, it has really had its moment to shine over the past few years. That’s due to geothermal’s much higher reliability. Geothermal is almost always available, making it a baseload generator that doesn’t experience the sorts of drastic fluctuations in supply that you see with wind or solar.</p><p>Sure, geothermal has drawbacks. It is often in remote locations, costs can be somewhat unattractive at times, and it’s harder to build at vast scale compared to other alternatives. However, in a world that is rapidly discovering some drawbacks with intermittent green power sources, geothermal has carved out a solid space for itself.</p><p>Ormat in particular is profitable and has an attractive business outlook. ORA stock was fairly quiet between the mid-2000s and 2015. However, since then, shares as much as quintupled before hitting their peak in 2021. Since then, like so many growth stocks, Ormat’s shares have sharply from their peak. However, the long-term trajectory should keep pointing upward.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AY\">Atlantica Sustainable Infrastructure</a></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8385c40fdac557d5652528e2c4f66bdb\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Source: Chart by Josh Enomoto</p><p>One of the more interesting trends in natural resources of the past decade has been royalty companies. Specialty finance firms will provide financing to an oil &amp; gas or mining company, and, in return, get a stream of mineral production once the project comes online.</p><p>Atlantica is offering investors a similar sort of structure in the renewable energy space. It finances renewable energy projects that are set to be built. After the renewable power generation asset is up and running, Atlantica offloads energy to end purchasers and gets to keep a favorable spread. This gives investors a royalty structure that should deliver steadier returns and a solid dividend from what has historically been a volatile industry.</p><p>Atlantica does have some other assets as well, namely investments in water, transmission lines, and natural gas. However, roughly 75% of its assets are in renewables such as wind and geothermal. AY stock currently offers a 5.5% dividend yield, making it an interest choice for green energy investors that also want some immediate income.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GE\">General Electric</a></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98b47f41fdf8b3be1bea03fd5c06700c\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Source: testing / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Finally, for investors that want a broader industrial play with emphasis on green energy exposure, don’t forget about GE.</p><p>General Electric has been on a multi-year journey to turn its business around and rectify the errors of past management teams. This transformation continues at aggressive speed under star CEO Larry Culp.

In a broad example, the Invesco Solar Portfolio ETF has lost nearly half of its value over the past year.Two major factors have contributed to the decline in value for many renewable energy stocks. For one, the wind and solar industries haven’t received the sorts of subsidies that traders were hoping for from the Biden Administration.For another, many green energy companies don’t generate much in the way of near-term profits or cash flows. Thus, they’ve gotten caught up in the broad market-based selling around all sorts of speculative growth companies.It’s certainly not all blue skies ahead for the renewable energy industry. Shortcomings — particularly as it relates to lack of storage capacity — have become painfully apparent in recent months.Look at thespiraling electricity crisisthis winter in Europe for one example. Still, after seeing many renewable energy stocks drop by 50% or more, it’s time to take a fresh look.Here are seven names that could stand out, even during this volatile period for the renewable energy industry:SunrunFirst SolarNextEraConsolidated EdisonOrmat TechnologiesAtlantica Sustainable InfrastructureGeneral ElectricSunrunSource: IgorGolovniov / Shutterstock.comSolar energy stocks were blazing hot at the beginning of the Biden Administration. Between the November 2020 election and Inauguration Day 2021, the price of Sunrun stock soared almost 52%.Particularly with Democrats in control of the House of Representatives and Senate, in addition to the presidency, a robust era of clean energy spending was supposed to commence.However, there’s been limited legislative traction for green energy. Much of Washington D.C.’s attention has understandably turned to more immediate issues such as dealing with the societal and economic impacts of the Covid-19 crisis.Attempts at a grand series of Build Back Better infrastructure bills have gotten pruned down to a much-smaller package.This has hit the solar industry hard with smaller, more-speculative names like SunRun getting walloped. RUN stock is down nearly 70% over the past year.Sunrun operates in the home solar space and has shown incredible growth — north of 30% — despite already having a large installed base.However, Sunrun has gotten hit on all fronts. The lack of expected subsidy support has dimmed near-term expectations. Meanwhile, supply chain and inflation issues are a threat to crush profit margins.In addition, the company borrowed heavily during brighter times and now faces growing investor skepticism around its balance sheet.There’s plenty of risk at SunRun to be sure. However, with the stock down from a 52-week high of $85 to just $25 now, RUN stock is one of the highest-voltage ways to get exposure to a potential solar industry rebound.FirstSolarSource: IgorGolovniov / Shutterstock.comFirst Solar is a more conservative way to play the solar industry. It is one of the leading manufacturers of panels.It’s not nearly as much of a growth play as something like Sunrun. However, it’s actually highly profitable, which is something of a rarity in the solar industry at the moment.The company will have earned roughly $3.50 per share for full-year 2021 once it announces results later this month. That will put the stock around 20x full-year 2021 earnings.Analysts see First Solar’s earnings dropping in 2022. After that, however, the consensus has 2023 earnings recovering to 2021 levels, giving First Solar a solid base of profitability in the intermediate term.Some of First Solar’s strategic advantage is due to using a differentiated technology for making its panels as opposed to commodity producers overseas.Another element of its success came from the Trump Administration’s move to slap tariffs on imported solar panels. Biden’s team recently announced that it will easebut not altogether eliminatethese tariffs.That’s an additional win for First Solar, which has invested heavily in its Ohio-based manufacturing facilities.NextEraSource: madamF / Shutterstock.comAnother way to get involved in the renewable energy wave is through power utilities. Not all utilities have a strong renewable energy angle. A few stand out, however. Florida-based NextEra is one of the leaders in solar power deployment nationally.It does have a traditional regulated utility business that offers stable predictable cash flows.Where things get more exciting is with its separate arm in the construction and design of large-scale renewable power projects around the country. This gives NextEra an attractive source of additional income.These development projects tend to be in a competitive market and thus can earn higher returns on equity than traditional utility power where returns are generally set by state regulators.Additionally, NextEra has benefited in a huge way from passive index fund flows. NextEra scores highly on environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards and thus is a leading investment for many funds in the socially-conscious, green, and millennial categories.As more and more money floods into these ESG-type investments, NextEra should be one of the largest recipients of these inflows.Consolidated EdisonSource: Pand P Studio / Shutterstock.comConsolidated Edison is another of the pioneers in the renewable utility space. The New York City power company is one of the world’s oldest power utilities.Even with its storied history, it has managed to keep up with the times. Indeed, today, it’s now the second-largest operator of utility-scale solar power in the U.S.That’s good in its own right. Given the political climate on the East Coast, the renewable focus is particularly useful. ConEd is already ahead of the curve in terms of upping its investments in green energy while other utilities will have to rush to meet phase-outs around the use of dirtier fuels.\\From an investor’s perspective, ConEd is a classic growth and income holding. The company has increased its dividend for 48 years in a row, making it one of the few Dividend Aristocrats in the power utility sector. ED stock has delivered steadily rising dividends and some capital appreciation for decades, and its quick adoption of renewables should keep that streak going for many years to come.Ormat TechnologiesSource: riekephotos / Shutterstock.comOrmat Technologies is the global leader in geothermal power generation. The company was founded way back in 1965 and has developed more than 190 power plants over the decades. It has been in the green energy game for a long time, giving it a level of domain expertise and cyclical knowledge that most newer rivals don’t yet possess.For a long time, analysts viewed geothermal as a fringe alternative in the power generation business. However, it has really had its moment to shine over the past few years. That’s due to geothermal’s much higher reliability. Geothermal is almost always available, making it a baseload generator that doesn’t experience the sorts of drastic fluctuations in supply that you see with wind or solar.Sure, geothermal has drawbacks. It is often in remote locations, costs can be somewhat unattractive at times, and it’s harder to build at vast scale compared to other alternatives. However, in a world that is rapidly discovering some drawbacks with intermittent green power sources, geothermal has carved out a solid space for itself.Ormat in particular is profitable and has an attractive business outlook. ORA stock was fairly quiet between the mid-2000s and 2015. However, since then, shares as much as quintupled before hitting their peak in 2021. Since then, like so many growth stocks, Ormat’s shares have sharply from their peak. However, the long-term trajectory should keep pointing upward.Atlantica Sustainable InfrastructureSource: Chart by Josh EnomotoOne of the more interesting trends in natural resources of the past decade has been royalty companies. Specialty finance firms will provide financing to an oil & gas or mining company, and, in return, get a stream of mineral production once the project comes online.Atlantica is offering investors a similar sort of structure in the renewable energy space. It finances renewable energy projects that are set to be built. After the renewable power generation asset is up and running, Atlantica offloads energy to end purchasers and gets to keep a favorable spread. This gives investors a royalty structure that should deliver steadier returns and a solid dividend from what has historically been a volatile industry.Atlantica does have some other assets as well, namely investments in water, transmission lines, and natural gas. However, roughly 75% of its assets are in renewables such as wind and geothermal. AY stock currently offers a 5.5% dividend yield, making it an interest choice for green energy investors that also want some immediate income.General ElectricSource: testing / Shutterstock.comFinally, for investors that want a broader industrial play with emphasis on green energy exposure, don’t forget about GE.General Electric has been on a multi-year journey to turn its business around and rectify the errors of past management teams. This transformation continues at aggressive speed under star CEO Larry Culp. GE is unloading its large aircraft leasing business and has several more asset divestures and spins on the way.It’s a complicated company, and the name GE leaves many investors with a bad taste. However, operating results are picking up steam and analysts see it as quite cheap. Morningstar’s Joshua Aguilar currently pegsfair value at $133versus a current share price around $100. That’s an attractive discount, and GE stock gives investors exposure to solid power assets such as its wind turbines and power grid systems solutions.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":408,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9091898976,"gmtCreate":1643818005514,"gmtModify":1676533860011,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578561847510900","authorIdStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","listText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","text":"[Smile]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9091898976","repostId":"1100493777","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1100493777","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1643812153,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1100493777?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-02 22:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 gains for a fourth day as investors buy the January tech dip, Nasdaq jumps led by Alphabet","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1100493777","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stocks headed modestly higher Wednesday morning, as the technology-sector was driven up on the ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>U.S. stocks headed modestly higher Wednesday morning, as the technology-sector was driven up on the back of banner results from Google parent Alphabet and microchip maker Advanced Micro Devices.</p><p>Wall Street also was parsing a report from Automatic Data Processing, which showed that U.S. economy shed 301,000 private sector jobs in January as it wrestled with the spread of the omicron variant of coronavirus.</p><p>On Tuesday, the Dow rose 273 points, or 0.78%, to 35405, the S&amp;P 500 increased 31 points, or 0.69%, to 4547, and the Nasdaq Composite gained 106 points, or 0.75%, to 14346.</p><p>Markets were trading modestly higher even as an employment report from ADP indicated a sharp, unexpected reduction in private-sector payrolls for January.</p><p>The report shows that payrolls for the private sector fell by 301,000 in January, well below estimates for a gain of 200,000, according to an average of estimates from economists polled by The Wall Street Journal.

The results raise the bar for social-media giant Meta Platforms FB, +1.38%, formerly known as Facebook Inc., which reports results after Wednesday’s close.Investor sentiment has been swinging between concern over Federal Reserve monetary policy tightening and confidence in the economic recovery, resulting in volatile trading to start the year. A healthy corporate earnings outlook is helping to ease the uncertainty though. Of the 200 S&P 500 companies that have reported results so far, 80% have met or beaten estimates.Meanwhile, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies, a group known as OPEC+, was expected to stick to a plan for an increase of 400,000 barrels of oil per day each month, but it is unclear what other measures the group by institute amid a surge in oil values and persistent concerns about COVID.Investors also continued to monitor tensions between the U.S. and Russia over Ukraine. Western officials say Russia has massed more than 100,000 troops near Ukraine border while diplomatic talks have yet to make a breakthrough.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":349,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9004661803,"gmtCreate":1642586174443,"gmtModify":1676533725108,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578561847510900","authorIdStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","listText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","text":"[Smile]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9004661803","repostId":"1159142841","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1159142841","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1642516584,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1159142841?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-18 22:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"BioNTech shares tumbled nearly 8% in morning trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1159142841","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"BioNTech shares tumbled nearly 8% in morning trading. Israel sticks with 4th vaccine shot, sees Omic","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>BioNTech shares tumbled nearly 8% in morning trading. Israel sticks with 4th vaccine shot, sees Omicron waning in a week.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/820a316803b5a9c6361c44c1007ab003\" tg-width=\"865\" tg-height=\"641\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Israel will continue to offer a fourth COVID-19 vaccine shot despite preliminary findings that it is not enough to prevent Omicron infections, a senior health official said on Tuesday, predicting contagions stoked by the variant will wane in a week.</p><p>The fastest country to roll out vaccinations a year ago, Israel last month started offering a fourth shot - also known as a second booster - to its most vulnerable and high-risk groups.</p><p>A preliminary study published by an Israeli hospital on Monday found that the fourth shot increases antibodies to even higher levels than the third but &#34;probably&#34;

Building passive income is the name of the game, and traditional tools like savings accounts don&#39;t pay the type of yield they used to.</p><p>Fortunately, investors can use a diversified mix of high-yielding dividend stocks to help put some money in their pockets. Here are five stocks that yield more than 5%, making them income-producing ideas worth considering.</p><h2>Enbridge</h2><p>Oil and gas may be hot right now, but Canadian energy infrastructure company <b>Enbridge</b> (NYSE:ENB) has excelled for years. The company is a Dividend Aristocrat, having raised its dividend for 26 years while offering a generous 6.7% yield. Enbridge&#39;s primary business is the transportation and distribution of oil and natural gas across North America. In other words, it moves these extracted resources to refineries, storage, and exports.</p><p>Oil prices can significantly impact the profits of many oil and gas companies, but Enbridge is a pipeline, or &#34;midstream,&#34; company because it transports oil and gas. The company is paid based on the volume that flows through its pipes, much like cars through a toll booth.</p><p>A volume-based business model makes Enbridge more stable than many oil and gas companies; people need these resources, whether prices are up or down. Management is guiding for $4.70 to $5 per share in cash flow for the full 2021 year, and the resulting dividend payout ratio is manageable at 67%.</p><h2>Kinder Morgan</h2><p>Staying in the energy infrastructure space a little longer, <b>Kinder Morgan</b>&#39;s (NYSE:KMI) 83,000 miles of pipelines carry natural gas, gasoline, crude oil, and carbon dioxide all over the U.S. The dividend currently yields a robust 6.3%, making it an excellent passive income asset for retirees.</p><p>Investors might notice that Kinder Morgan&#39;s dividend history isn&#39;t as clean as Enbridge&#39;s. The company had a heavy debt load in 2016 that forced management to cut the dividend to invest money into the business.</p><p>Fortunately, Kinder Morgan&#39;s balance sheet is a lot healthier today than back then. Its cash flow covers the dividend; a payout of 80% leaves about $900 million left over, which management uses to buy back shares.</p><h2>Altria Group</h2><p>Tobacco stocks are a staple for many dividend investors, and <b>Altria Group</b> (NYSE:MO) is arguably the king of the mountain. It owns and sells the Marlboro brand of cigarettes throughout the U.S. The company is a Dividend King, having raised its dividend for 51 consecutive years, and it offers a generous dividend yield of 7.2%.</p><p>Investors could be skeptical of Altria&#39;s ability to continue funding its dividend. The smoking rate in the U.S. has significantly declined for decades, and the company&#39;s cigarette volumes decrease each year.</p><p>However, tobacco is an addictive product, and Altria capitalizes by slowly raising cigarette prices each year, just enough to offset the declines in volume. The company also has a growing stable of non-cigarette business segments, including leading brands in chewing tobacco, a nicotine pouch product line, as well as minority investments in <b>Cronos Group</b> and <b>Anheuser-Busch InBev</b>. It should be noted though that the majority of Altria&#39;s income currently comes from cigarette sales.</p><p>Altria will not knock your socks off with growth, but it squeaks out just enough to raise the payout each year. Its dividend payout ratio is a comfortable 78% of cash flow, which Altria can afford because its business doesn&#39;t require a lot of money to maintain itself.</p><h2>Iron Mountain</h2><p>The world continues to go digital, and businesses no longer refer to filing cabinets of data, they search their computer databases for it. However, the actual paper copies still exist in many cases, which is where <b>Iron Mountain</b> (NYSE:IRM) comes in. Iron Mountain is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns and manages facilities where customers store data, including physical records, data centers, and more.</p><p>Iron Mountain is the de facto leader in physical file storage, serving 95% of Fortune 1000 companies, and has a 98% customer retention rate. Management has raised the dividend for the past nine years, which currently yields 5.3% on the current share price.</p><p>Iron Mountain&#39;s legacy business could slowly crumble over time with digital and cloud storage quickly growing. However, management has proactively invested in Iron Mountain&#39;s transition to data centers, so investors should know that the company is working toward a digital future. The dividend payout ratio is roughly 50% of cash flow (called &#34;funds from operations&#34; for REITs), so retirees can count on payments to keep coming.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OHI\">Omega Healthcare Investors</a></h2><p>There are currently 46 million elderly adults (aged 65 or older) living in the U.S., a number that could almost double to 90 million by 2050. <b>Omega Healthcare Investors</b> (NYSE:OHI) is a REIT that focuses on skilled nursing facilities, like retirement homes and assisted living.</p><p>The company has a strong dividend track record, having raised its payout for 18 years. The dividend currently yields 8.6%. Even though skilled nursing is expensive, most occupants receive government funding through Medicare or Medicaid.</p><p>Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic has lowered occupancy for many of Omega&#39;s tenants. Almost 9% of Omega&#39;s tenants are struggling to meet rent as a result. This could negatively impact the company in the short term, though an aging U.S. population should be a long-term growth opportunity. The dividend payout ratio is 82% right now, so investors will want to monitor this if COVID-19 continues to create challenges for Omega Healthcare.</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>Retired? 5 Stocks Yielding 5% to Buy in 2022</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\">\nRetired? 5 Stocks Yielding 5% to Buy in 2022\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-14 10:42 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/13/retired-5-stocks-yielding-5-to-buy-in-2022/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Your golden years are about enjoying life, not stressing about living.

Management has raised the dividend for the past nine years, which currently yields 5.3% on the current share price.Iron Mountain's legacy business could slowly crumble over time with digital and cloud storage quickly growing. However, management has proactively invested in Iron Mountain's transition to data centers, so investors should know that the company is working toward a digital future. The dividend payout ratio is roughly 50% of cash flow (called \"funds from operations\" for REITs), so retirees can count on payments to keep coming.Omega Healthcare InvestorsThere are currently 46 million elderly adults (aged 65 or older) living in the U.S., a number that could almost double to 90 million by 2050. Omega Healthcare Investors (NYSE:OHI) is a REIT that focuses on skilled nursing facilities, like retirement homes and assisted living.The company has a strong dividend track record, having raised its payout for 18 years. The dividend currently yields 8.6%. Even though skilled nursing is expensive, most occupants receive government funding through Medicare or Medicaid.Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic has lowered occupancy for many of Omega's tenants. Almost 9% of Omega's tenants are struggling to meet rent as a result. This could negatively impact the company in the short term, though an aging U.S. population should be a long-term growth opportunity. The dividend payout ratio is 82% right now, so investors will want to monitor this if COVID-19 continues to create challenges for Omega Healthcare.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":834,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9002229048,"gmtCreate":1642030536007,"gmtModify":1676533672821,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578561847510900","authorIdStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Cool]&nbsp;","listText":"[Cool]&nbsp;","text":"[Cool]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9002229048","repostId":"1178079511","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1178079511","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1641999596,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1178079511?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-01-12 22:59","market":"us","language":"en","title":"EV Stocks Jumped in Morning Trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1178079511","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"EV Stocks Jumped in Morning Trading. Rivian, Tusimple, Lucid, Nio, Xpeng Motors, Li Auto, Fisker and","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>EV Stocks Jumped in Morning Trading. Rivian, Tusimple, Lucid, Nio, Xpeng Motors, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LI\">Li Auto</a>, Fisker and Tesla climbed between 1% and 5%.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/52c3379db2b57dec23158b14585beab0\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"2181\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

With that in mind, here are three stocks to buy for 2022 that are practically money machines.</p><h2>1. Alphabet</h2><p><b>Alphabet</b> (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) generated almost $66 billion in free cash flow over the past 12 months. Unsurprisingly, the stock was a big winner in 2021, vaulting nearly 70% higher.</p><p>Can the tech giant continue to essentially print money?

Alphabet has other moneymaking assets, though, including the Android operating system and Google Cloud.</p><p>Investors should also like how Alphabet puts its cash flow to work. The company bought back $1.5 billion of its Class A shares and $11.1 billion of its Class C shares in the third quarter of 2021. It&#39;s also investing in initiatives that could fuel future growth such as self-driving car technology business Waymo and drone-based delivery provider Wing.</p><h2>2. Devon Energy</h2><p><b>Devon Energy</b> (NYSE:DVN) didn&#39;t singlehandedly drive the <b>S&amp;P 500 index</b> to a record high in 2021. But it deserves a lot of the credit. Shares of the oil and gas producer skyrocketed more than 175% last year.</p><p>The company&#39;s free cash flow in the third quarter of 2021 topped $1.1 billion. That might not seem overly impressive at first glance. However, it&#39;s a drastic improvement from the previous year -- jumping eighfold since the fourth quarter of 2020. And Devon expects its free cash flow to increase at least another 40% in 2022.</p><p>What&#39;s especially attractive about Devon&#39;s free cash flow is what the company does with it. Devon uses up to 50% of its excess free cash flow to fund a variable dividend. The combination of the company&#39;s fixed and variable dividend gives it a yield of more than 9%. That&#39;s more than seven times higher than the <b>S&amp;P 500</b>&#39;s dividend yield.</p><p>In addition, Devon plans to buy back $1 billion in shares by the end of 2022. This should be a good investment. The stock&#39;s enterprise value (EV) is only 3.8 times Devon&#39;s expected 2022 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). By comparison, the S&amp;P 500&#39;s forward EV/EBITDA multiple is 14.5.</p><h2>3. Pfizer</h2><p><b>Pfizer</b> (NYSE:PFE) is a bona fide pharmaceutical cash cow these days. The drugmaker generated free cash flow of more than $29 billion over the last 12 months. Its free cash flow has more than doubled over the past three years. And the big pharma stock was a huge winner in 2021, soaring around 60%.</p><p>It&#39;s not hard to guess what&#39;s primarily behind this growth. Pfizer&#39;s COVID-19 vaccine Comirnaty, developed with <b>BioNTech</b>, has been a massive commercial success. The two companies project that Comirnaty raked in $36 billion in 2021.</p><p>Pfizer should make a lot more money in 2022. In addition to continued strong sales for Comirnaty, the company&#39;s COVID-19 pill Paxlovid is likely to pull in $24 billion or so this year. Of course, Pfizer also has multiple other blockbusters, including its blood thinner Eliquis, cancer drugs Ibrance and Xtandi, and Prevnar pneumococcal vaccines.</p><p>What&#39;s Pfizer doing with its growing cash flow? The dividend is a top priority. The drugmaker&#39;s dividend yield currently stands at close to 2.8%. Pfizer is also gobbling up smaller companies with the acquisitions of <b>Arena Pharmaceuticals</b> and Trillium Therapeutics.</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 Stocks to Buy for 2022 That Are Practically Money Machines</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 Stocks to Buy for 2022 That Are Practically Money Machines\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-04 19:57 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/04/3-stocks-to-buy-for-2022-that-are-practically-mone/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Contrary to conventional wisdom, cash is not king.

However, Omdia recently reported that AMD earned a record market share in the data center market in September, indicating Intel could struggle in this part of the metaverse as well.Moreover, even with Gelsinger's moves to improve Intel's technology, product development cycles in the chip industry tend to take between three and five years. Thus, the prospect of whether Intel can stage a comeback remains speculative at this stage.Still, a comeback is not out of the question. Intel had led the industry technologically for decades, and it continues to generate more revenue than AMD and Nvidia combined. Nonetheless, investors have so far shown little confidence that Intel can come back in this area.Intel's financials offer little help (at least for now)Additionally, current financials offer little good news to Intel bulls. In the first nine months of 2021, revenue of just over $58 billion rose by just 1% compared with the same period in 2020. Also, net income during the first three quarters of 2021 climbed by about the same rate to just over $15 billion. Income from gains in equity investments and a lower tax expense helped offset almost a nearly $4 billion increase in operating expenses.Furthermore, full-year 2021 forecasts call for flat to modestly lower revenue compared with 2020. This may help explain why the stock price has risen by about 10% over the last 12 months, well under the S&P 500 total return of 31% during that time frame. Additionally, Intel has long failed to achieve any kind of valuation premium. Its price-to-earnings ratio stands at about 10, well below AMD's 46 earnings multiple and Nvidia's 92 P/E ratio.Can the metaverse invigorate Intel stock?Determining whether the metaverse can help Intel stage a comeback will take time. Despite Intel's leadership actively working to reinvigorate the company, Intel's financials and stock price remain sluggish. Nonetheless, product cycles in its industry take years to play out. Moreover, the fact that AMD and Nvidia surged to a technical lead shows that the competitive battle remains ongoing.In the end, nobody knows how Intel will perform in the metaverse. Still, with a large base of operations and a low earnings multiple, investors hold a tremendous incentive to take a chance on the tech giant.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":390,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9003387546,"gmtCreate":1640878695613,"gmtModify":1676533550644,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578561847510900","authorIdStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","listText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","text":"[Smile]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9003387546","repostId":"1139674064","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1139674064","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1640878484,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1139674064?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-12-30 23:34","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Lucid Vs.

In this report, we&#39;ll pit Lucid Group, Inc. (LCID) and NIO Inc. (NIO) against each other - two of the most interesting EV players that combine strong brands and high-end technological capabilities. In this report, we&#39;ll take a deeper dive into the tech and product side and will look at individual risks for both companies. Overall, I do believe that NIO is the more attractive choice among these two at current prices.</p><p><b>Lucid And NIO In The EV Market</b></p><p>The global EV market has been growing rapidly, with EV sales likely coming in a little north of six million, which is roughly twice as high as during the previous year. Clearly, EVs are a huge growth sector in the global automobile market, although it should be noted that most vehicles sold around the world are still powered by internal combustion engines. Over the years, EV market share should continue to climb rapidly, but it is not looking like EVs will dominate ICE vehicles any time soon.</p><p>The market leaders in the EV space are Tesla and BYD (OTCPK:BYDDY), and, depending on how one counts plug-in hybrids, Volkswagen (OTCPK:VWAGY). NIO Inc. and Lucid Group, Inc. are not among the largest companies for now. NIO is selling around 11,000 vehicles a month right now, which translates into a ~130,000 annual sales pace. Sales have been growing quickly, however, which is why NIO will most likely sell more than 130,000 vehicles next year, as deliveries should continue to climb sequentially. Lucid is way smaller for now, in terms of deliveries, as the company has likely sold a couple of hundred vehicles this year. Next year, Lucid Group targets deliveries of around 20,000 vehicles - up by a lot versus 2021, but still a relatively small number compared to the deliveries NIO and many other peers will hit next year.</p><p><b>LCID Vs. NIO&#39;s Past Quarterly Performance</b></p><p>As noted above, NIO&#39;s sales performance was way stronger than that of Lucid over the last three months, but that was hardly a surprise as LCID just began delivering vehicles to customers. On a share price basis, however, Lucid fared better:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a7a6e7cb1b1485f32cc25ade9f387a5b\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>Over the last three months, LCID is up close to 50%, whereas NIO saw its shares drop by close to 20% over the same time frame. In NIO&#39;s case, macro worries about Chinese regulation played a role, whereas LCID benefitted a lot from growing enthusiasm for US-based EV players caused by Rivian&#39;s (RIVN) huge IPO success. On top of that, the start of deliveries also attracted new investors to Lucid&#39;s stock. If analysts are correct, NIO is the much better value today:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b1d0939d657b284e25d8447ccb211b5\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"481\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Data by YCharts</span></p><p>Shares are trading at less than half the consensus price target, which implies 100%+ upside over the next year, whereas LCID is trading almost perfectly in line with the current consensus price target - which implies no upside over the next year. NIO&#39;s underperformance over the last quarter thus seems to position the company well for a strong performance from the current level, whereas the same can&#39;t be said about Lucid.</p><p><b>Lucid Vs. NIO Key Metrics</b></p><p>Let&#39;s take a deeper look at the tech of the two companies, as well as at their branding, and their specific key risks. Both NIO and Lucid are active in the high-end segment of the EV industry, selling vehicles with ASPs well north of the average Tesla. NIO&#39;s ASP is around $70,000, and Lucid&#39;s ASP is even higher than that for now, as the company is selling the most expensive Air<i>Dream</i>version first. Tesla, the current EV leader, has an ASP of around $50,000. Both NIO and Tesla are thus operating in a more luxurious, higher-end segment of the market compared to Tesla. How are these companies able to demand way higher ASPs than Tesla? There are several factors at play, including branding, but one of the most important factors is their great tech.</p><p>NIO&#39;s battery-swapping technology, for example, allows its customers to fully &#34;recharge&#34; in a couple of minutes, while most other EVs take way longer to fully charge. Lucid doesn&#39;t employ battery-swapping, but its racing-tested 900V technology allows for both a huge range as well as for fast charging speeds - Lucid&#39;s architecture allows customers to charge up to 300 miles worth of energy in just 20 minutes. The Tesla S, for reference, uses a ~400V architecture that allows customers to recharge 200 miles in 15 minutes. Clearly, both NIO&#39;s solution, as well as Lucid&#39;s solution, seem superior compared to what Tesla is offering.</p><p>NIO&#39;s and Lucid&#39;s tech also looks highly competitive when it comes to their respective batteries. The Lucid Air Dream has an EPA range of 520 miles, which should be sufficient for almost all use cases. NIO has a larger product portfolio compared to Lucid, but when we take a look at its top-end sedan, battery performance looks even better. The NIO ET7, with a 150kWh battery (smaller options are available, too), has a range of up to 1,000km, which equates to around 620 miles of range. Again, both NIO and Lucid perform well compared to Tesla - the flagship S Plaid has an EPA range of 350 miles. Thanks to its experience in developing and supplying racing engines for electric race cars, Lucid crafts an especially efficient engine:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/edf92a9709beceb826f2e86b3bc25dd6\" tg-width=\"1502\" tg-height=\"829\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Lucid presentation</span></p><p>A smaller, more efficient engine results in lower resource usage and reduces the weight of the vehicle, all else equal. This does, in turn, lead to a longer range, and it also allows for better handling and driving performance, all else equal. Lucid is by far not the biggest EV player today, but its engineers have developed some of the most compelling products and solutions among all currently active EV players.</p><p>NIO puts a lot of focus on technologies that will eventually allow for autonomous driving and puts massive numbers of sensors and huge computing power in its vehicles today. The ET7 uses the following sensing units for that goal:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b39530a306d0b27d76d36bccec0e147d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"331\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: NIO</span></p><p>With 33 sensors that use up to 8MP, NIO&#39;s sensing capabilities easily blow away those of Tesla. The Tesla Model 3, which is, according to CEO Musk, ready for full-self-driving, only uses 8 cameras with 1.2MP each. One of NIO&#39;s sensors in the ET7 thus has almost as much sensing performance as all of the cameras in the M3 combined - and NIO uses 32 additional sensors in its model. Clearly, NIO&#39;s offering is superior - and that obviously comes at a price, as NIO is not skimping when it comes to putting the best tech in its vehicles. This is also showcased by the massive processing power of the chips NIO uses in the ET7. The ET7 uses four NVIDIA (NVDA) Orin SoCs, each of which offers slightly more than 250 trillion operations per second, which makes for combined computing power of more than 1,000 TOPS - unheard of in any production vehicle. Using four SoCs at the same time also provides for the redundancy that is required for critical systems in a self-driving scenario. it should be noted that NIO&#39;s self-driving tech is not as excellent on the software side - yet. At least for now, peers such as XPeng (XPEV) seem to employ the stronger algorithms, but that is a problem that NIO can solve over the coming quarters and years, and integrating future software in its vehicles that come with top-notch hardware shouldn&#39;t be a very difficult task. Lucid&#39;s self-driving tech, even though it doesn&#39;t get a lot of recognition yet, is not looking bad at all, either. The DreamDrive suite utilizes 32 onboard sensors, almost on par with NIO&#39;s Aquila system (and 4x more sensors compared to the M3, which is allegedly L5 ready from a hardware perspective).</p><p>Strong tech alone doesn&#39;t make for an attractive vehicle, however, as design, manufacturing quality, etc. have to be considered as well. Luckily, both NIO and Lucid compete very well on that basis, although the data on Lucid is still limited due to the low sales numbers - not too many people have driven a Lucid Air yet, thus data about reliability, etc. is limited. NIO, however, has been selling thousands of vehicles a month for quite some time, and its users are very satisfied with the vehicles&#39; quality. CnTechPost reports that J.D. Power has rated NIO the highest-quality EV company in China, ahead of Tesla. Lucid is not active in the country yet, but test drives by a wide range of auto journalists and magazines have generally resulted in very positive reviews. Both NIO and Lucid thus look strong from a design, quality, and tech perspective, with NIO putting more focus on customer-friendly items such as battery-swapping and driving assistance, whereas Lucid puts more focus on engine performance, battery tech, etc. Both avenues have their advantages, but I personally could see NIO benefit more from its easy-to-use, customer-friendly approach, as not too many people will buy an EV based on criteria such as the battery architecture. Still, Lucid&#39;s ability to develop high-performing vehicles should come in very handy in the highly competitive EV industry going forward.</p><p>With NIO, the main risk the market seems to worry about now is regulation/politics. I personally do not believe that regulation will be a huge risk for NIO. Chinese companies never were able to compete successfully in the ICE vehicle space, but with EV technologies bringing change to the entire global automobile industry, China saw its chance to become a global automobile powerhouse. Hurting NIO and other Chinese EV players would run contrary to those goals, which is why I believe that China is more interested in nurturing its own EV players, including NIO, instead of hurting them. Still, the market puts a discount on every Chinese company today, and that holds true for NIO as well - which might be a good thing for those seeking to buy into the company at a below-average valuation.</p><p>For Lucid, regulation doesn&#39;t seem like an important risk. Instead, the main risks here are the high valuation and the production ramp. As Tesla has shown, ramping up vehicle production is no easy task. The company oftentimes had to battle with delays and other issues, sometimes summarized as &#34;Production Hell&#34;. The same could hold true for Lucid, which will have to ramp up production at a high speed in the coming months and quarters in order to meet its ambitious production goals. It&#39;s not a certainty that it will experience similar issues to other manufacturers, of course, but due to a lack of experience, this seems a considerable risk worth keeping an eye on. On top of that, LCID&#39;s high valuation could be a considerable risk - shares trade at around 30x next year&#39;s expected revenue, and there is no guarantee at all that those revenues will actually be generated.</p><p><b>Is Lucid Or NIO Stock The Better Buy?</b></p><p>Both NIO and Lucid have attractive products that seem highly competitive in the EV market that is seeing more and more entrants. I do believe that both companies will have operational success over the coming years, driven by strong tech, attractive brands, and compelling product quality. Operational growth does not necessarily result in share price growth, however, as valuations can be a major hurdle when one buys at a price that is too high.</p><p>In NIO&#39;s case, that does not seem like an overly large risk, as shares are inexpensive relative to how other EV players are valued - NIO trades at ~4x next year&#39;s expected revenue, which represents a clear discount compared to LCID, RIVN, TSLA, and so on. Lucid, on the other hand, is trading at a very premium valuation of 30x next year&#39;s sales.</p><p>I do believe that, based on its larger size, more established operations, better progress in ramping production, and due to its much more reasonable valuation, NIO is the better pick among these two today.The recent share price decline makes for an attractive entry point for those interested in owning this top-notch Chinese EV player.</p></body></html>","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>Lucid Vs.

In this report, we'll pit Lucid Group, Inc. (LCID) and NIO Inc. (NIO) against each other - two of the most interesting EV players that combine strong brands and high-end technological capabilities. In this report, we'll take a deeper dive into the tech and product side and will look at individual risks for both companies. Overall, I do believe that NIO is the more attractive choice among these two at current prices.Lucid And NIO In The EV MarketThe global EV market has been growing rapidly, with EV sales likely coming in a little north of six million, which is roughly twice as high as during the previous year. Clearly, EVs are a huge growth sector in the global automobile market, although it should be noted that most vehicles sold around the world are still powered by internal combustion engines.

NIO Inc. and Lucid Group, Inc. are not among the largest companies for now. NIO is selling around 11,000 vehicles a month right now, which translates into a ~130,000 annual sales pace. Sales have been growing quickly, however, which is why NIO will most likely sell more than 130,000 vehicles next year, as deliveries should continue to climb sequentially. Lucid is way smaller for now, in terms of deliveries, as the company has likely sold a couple of hundred vehicles this year. Next year, Lucid Group targets deliveries of around 20,000 vehicles - up by a lot versus 2021, but still a relatively small number compared to the deliveries NIO and many other peers will hit next year.LCID Vs. NIO's Past Quarterly PerformanceAs noted above, NIO's sales performance was way stronger than that of Lucid over the last three months, but that was hardly a surprise as LCID just began delivering vehicles to customers. On a share price basis, however, Lucid fared better:Data by YChartsOver the last three months, LCID is up close to 50%, whereas NIO saw its shares drop by close to 20% over the same time frame. In NIO's case, macro worries about Chinese regulation played a role, whereas LCID benefitted a lot from growing enthusiasm for US-based EV players caused by Rivian's (RIVN) huge IPO success.

NIO's underperformance over the last quarter thus seems to position the company well for a strong performance from the current level, whereas the same can't be said about Lucid.Lucid Vs. NIO Key MetricsLet's take a deeper look at the tech of the two companies, as well as at their branding, and their specific key risks. Both NIO and Lucid are active in the high-end segment of the EV industry, selling vehicles with ASPs well north of the average Tesla. NIO's ASP is around $70,000, and Lucid's ASP is even higher than that for now, as the company is selling the most expensive AirDreamversion first.

The DreamDrive suite utilizes 32 onboard sensors, almost on par with NIO's Aquila system (and 4x more sensors compared to the M3, which is allegedly L5 ready from a hardware perspective).Strong tech alone doesn't make for an attractive vehicle, however, as design, manufacturing quality, etc. have to be considered as well. Luckily, both NIO and Lucid compete very well on that basis, although the data on Lucid is still limited due to the low sales numbers - not too many people have driven a Lucid Air yet, thus data about reliability, etc. is limited. NIO, however, has been selling thousands of vehicles a month for quite some time, and its users are very satisfied with the vehicles' quality. CnTechPost reports that J.D. Power has rated NIO the highest-quality EV company in China, ahead of Tesla. Lucid is not active in the country yet, but test drives by a wide range of auto journalists and magazines have generally resulted in very positive reviews. Both NIO and Lucid thus look strong from a design, quality, and tech perspective, with NIO putting more focus on customer-friendly items such as battery-swapping and driving assistance, whereas Lucid puts more focus on engine performance, battery tech, etc. Both avenues have their advantages, but I personally could see NIO benefit more from its easy-to-use, customer-friendly approach, as not too many people will buy an EV based on criteria such as the battery architecture. Still, Lucid's ability to develop high-performing vehicles should come in very handy in the highly competitive EV industry going forward.With NIO, the main risk the market seems to worry about now is regulation/politics. I personally do not believe that regulation will be a huge risk for NIO. Chinese companies never were able to compete successfully in the ICE vehicle space, but with EV technologies bringing change to the entire global automobile industry, China saw its chance to become a global automobile powerhouse. Hurting NIO and other Chinese EV players would run contrary to those goals, which is why I believe that China is more interested in nurturing its own EV players, including NIO, instead of hurting them. Still, the market puts a discount on every Chinese company today, and that holds true for NIO as well - which might be a good thing for those seeking to buy into the company at a below-average valuation.For Lucid, regulation doesn't seem like an important risk. Instead, the main risks here are the high valuation and the production ramp. As Tesla has shown, ramping up vehicle production is no easy task. The company oftentimes had to battle with delays and other issues, sometimes summarized as \"Production Hell\". The same could hold true for Lucid, which will have to ramp up production at a high speed in the coming months and quarters in order to meet its ambitious production goals. It's not a certainty that it will experience similar issues to other manufacturers, of course, but due to a lack of experience, this seems a considerable risk worth keeping an eye on. On top of that, LCID's high valuation could be a considerable risk - shares trade at around 30x next year's expected revenue, and there is no guarantee at all that those revenues will actually be generated.Is Lucid Or NIO Stock The Better Buy?Both NIO and Lucid have attractive products that seem highly competitive in the EV market that is seeing more and more entrants. I do believe that both companies will have operational success over the coming years, driven by strong tech, attractive brands, and compelling product quality. Operational growth does not necessarily result in share price growth, however, as valuations can be a major hurdle when one buys at a price that is too high.In NIO's case, that does not seem like an overly large risk, as shares are inexpensive relative to how other EV players are valued - NIO trades at ~4x next year's expected revenue, which represents a clear discount compared to LCID, RIVN, TSLA, and so on. Lucid, on the other hand, is trading at a very premium valuation of 30x next year's sales.I do believe that, based on its larger size, more established operations, better progress in ramping production, and due to its much more reasonable valuation, NIO is the better pick among these two today.The recent share price decline makes for an attractive entry point for those interested in owning this top-notch Chinese EV player.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":373,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":869198933,"gmtCreate":1632265405722,"gmtModify":1676530736294,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578561847510900","authorIdStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Glance]&nbsp;","listText":"[Glance]&nbsp;","text":"[Glance]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/869198933","repostId":"1177198394","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1177198394","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1632235173,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1177198394?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-21 22:39","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Pros Increased 'Crash' Protection As Reflexive Vol-Sellers Rescued Stocks Yesterday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1177198394","media":"zerohedge","summary":"A dramatic rebound in stocks - off the S&P's 100DMA - has prompted many commission-rakers and asset-","content":"<p>A dramatic rebound in stocks - off the S&amp;P's 100DMA - has prompted many commission-rakers and asset-gatherers today to call the end of the Evergrande event and signal the all-clear to new highs.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1786f12c41a5427f9277711dd6122fa2\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"734\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">So what happened?

Here's why.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9ee296c9d186c559f34f497acff8cf02\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>1. Palantir</h3>\n<p>Palantir is a software company that helps government agencies (mostly in the U.S.) and companies organize data to make informed decisions. This is a broad mandate but can be very useful for large organizations that have so many data points coming in daily. It only has 169 customers as of the end of the second quarter, but these customers are spending millions with Palantir each year.</p>\n<p>In the second quarter, total revenue grew 49% year over year to $376 million, with U.S. commercial revenue up 90% from 2020. Palantir closed 62 deals of $1 million or higher, including 21 deals north of $10 million. Clearly, organizations are finding value with the Palantir platform. Palantir is also profitable, with $233 million in adjusted operating income in the first half of this year. Investors have a lot of visibility into Palantir's future quarters, with total future deal value increasing 63% through the first half of 2021 to $3.4 billion.</p>\n<p>Palantir stock is expensive, with a market cap of $52 billion versus only $1.3 billion in revenue over the past 12 months. However, if you believe that most large organizations across the globe will use Palantir's data insights, while also factoring in the high amount of future revenue already booked, Palantir's revenue and profits could be much higher a few years from now. This makes the stock a lot smarter to own than other meme stocks.</p>\n<h3>2. Upstart Holdings</h3>\n<p>Upstart, like Palantir, is an artificial intelligence (AI)-focused company. But instead of serving large organizations, it is focused on the consumer lending market. The company has invented a better way to price loan default risk with consumers than traditional credit scores.

Described loosely as stocks with high short interest and/or gamma squeeze potential that become popular on social platforms like Twitter and Reddit, meme stocks are a whole new classification of stocks for investors to follow.\nWhile most meme stocks are downward-trending businesses trading at absurd valuations (like Gamestop and AMC Entertainment), a select few are actually strong companies that could be much larger five to 10 years from now.\nPalantir (NYSE:PLTR) and Upstart Holdings (NASDAQ:UPST) are two meme stocks with legitimate long-term upside. Here's why.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Palantir\nPalantir is a software company that helps government agencies (mostly in the U.S.) and companies organize data to make informed decisions. This is a broad mandate but can be very useful for large organizations that have so many data points coming in daily. It only has 169 customers as of the end of the second quarter, but these customers are spending millions with Palantir each year.\nIn the second quarter, total revenue grew 49% year over year to $376 million, with U.S. commercial revenue up 90% from 2020. Palantir closed 62 deals of $1 million or higher, including 21 deals north of $10 million. Clearly, organizations are finding value with the Palantir platform. Palantir is also profitable, with $233 million in adjusted operating income in the first half of this year. Investors have a lot of visibility into Palantir's future quarters, with total future deal value increasing 63% through the first half of 2021 to $3.4 billion.\nPalantir stock is expensive, with a market cap of $52 billion versus only $1.3 billion in revenue over the past 12 months. However, if you believe that most large organizations across the globe will use Palantir's data insights, while also factoring in the high amount of future revenue already booked, Palantir's revenue and profits could be much higher a few years from now. This makes the stock a lot smarter to own than other meme stocks.\n2. Upstart Holdings\nUpstart, like Palantir, is an artificial intelligence (AI)-focused company. But instead of serving large organizations, it is focused on the consumer lending market. The company has invented a better way to price loan default risk with consumers than traditional credit scores. It then partners with banks as a digital layer between them and the consumer, helping banks improve loss ratios and consumers get more fair access to loans. Upstart takes on minimal lending risks itself.\nSo far, Upstart's loan technology seems to be catching on extremely quickly. In the second quarter, total revenue grew 1,018% to $194 million, which shows how much banks are starting to use Upstart's lending algorithm. Upstart's bank partners originated 287,000 loans in the quarter, up 1,605% year over year. Even while growing this quickly, Upstart has been able to stay profitable, with $36.3 million in operating income last quarter. Upstart is also pushing heavily into auto loans with its acquisition of Prodigy. Auto loans are a $635 billion market, giving Upstart a long runway to grow if it can gain traction within the industry.\nManagement is guiding for $750 million in revenue this fiscal year. With a market cap of $19.2 billion, that gives the stock a forward price-to-sales (P/S) ratio of 25.6. This is extremely expensive, but as with Palantir, if you believe Upstart can keep up this high rate of growth, this P/S could come down quickly within the next five years. And given the fact that Upstart is already profitable while growing its revenue so quickly, that indicates it can have strong profit margins once its business matures. That makes it a meme stock with real long-term business prospects.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":170,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":883304544,"gmtCreate":1631199619388,"gmtModify":1676530495536,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3578561847510900","authorIdStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","listText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","text":"[Smile]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/883304544","repostId":"1114255023","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1114255023","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1631194165,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1114255023?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-09 21:29","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. stock indexes open mixed but mostly flat on Thursday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1114255023","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"(Sept 9) U.S. stock indexes open mixed but mostly flat on Thursday as investors weigh jobless claims","content":"<p>(Sept 9)&nbsp;U.S. stock indexes open mixed but mostly flat on Thursday as investors weigh jobless claims data, ECB moves.</p>\n<p>Some Big Tech shares such as Apple, Facebook and Amazon were in the green amid the economic uncertainty, boosting the Nasdaq a bit.</p>\n<p>Helping sentiment was a better-than-expected weekly reading on jobless claims.&nbsp;Initial jobless claims came in 310,000, which was below expectations of 335,000 claims.

I’d come into 2004 steadily scaling into ever-larger and more aggressive positions in mostly internet core equipment vendors like Nortel, JDSU, and Cisco, not to mention my largest position in Apple, which I’d first bought for the fund back in March of 2003.

By late January, I was nearly back up to half in cash and the hedge fund was already up nearly 25% for the year while the broader markets were barely up 5% on the year.</p>\n<p>In the last week of January, the markets turned south and the highest-flying winners of the year, like those that I’d just sold down and taken huge profits on, were the hardest hit. I’d previously learned the hard way over the years that you should never confuse a bull market with genius, but I’d even nailed the near-term top and my whole year was already in the pocket.

One morning as I walked into my hedge fund hotel office that I rented from Bear Stearns on the 40th floor in midtown New York, I was shocked to see the Nasdaq futures were down huge. I pulled up the Bloomberg terminal and my heart sank as the headline screamed “Nortel admits fraud; Major telecom equipment vendors under investigation” or something along those lines. Nortel was cut in half and most every internet-equipment-related stock in the market was down 20% or more on the day.

The new thinner design looks a lot like a big iPad.\nApple launches new iMac with new colors.Source: Apple Inc.\nApple says the volume of the computer has been reduced by 50%, resulting in a smaller computer that can fit on a desk more easily. It comes with a 24-inch built-in display and an improved camera that can record 1080p video in low light. Apple says the display runs at \"4.5K\" resolution.\nIt ships with a new magnetic power connector reminiscent of Apple's previous MagSafe laptop chargers and a slightly updated keyboard with an emoji key and a fingerprint sensor.

It’s using a technique Apple calls “precision finding” that it says is privacy-sensitive.\nThis product has been the source of some scrutiny from lawmakers who have heard that Apple is privileging its own lost-item trackers over others’ using anticompetitive practices and access to the iPhone operating system.

In 2019, Apple’s spring announcement focused on services such asApple TV+and theApple Card.

No, it’s not a problem, it’s a tradition.\nScreenshot/Apple.com\nOne of Apple’s silliest traditions is that on the morning of an event it pulls its online Apple store down, giving up a few hours of online sales in exchange for building hype over its new products. Apple has done this for years, and technology has certainly gotten to the point where Apple could update its store without downtime — it does it all the time — but why mess with a tradition?— Kif Leswing\nWhat’s at stake for Apple?\nI wrote yesterday about some of thetensions bubbling under the surface at Apple.

The company plans to sell at least 25 million shares and have about 360 million shares outstanding, which would trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker “APP.”</p>\n<p>The Palo Alto, Calif., company, which will be a decade old in July, makes marketing, monetization and analytics software that helps app developers grow their businesses. It also owns a portfolio of more than 200 free-to-play mobile games with in-app purchases. The expected valuation of AppLovin dwarfs that of a recent comparable IPO, Unity Software Inc.,which was valued at&nbsp;nearly $14 billion&nbsp;at the time of its IPO in September.</p>\n<p>In its Securities and Exchange Commission filing, AppLovin said it sees a total market opportunity of about $189 billion, with $101 billion of that in in-app advertising revenue and about $88 billion in worldwide direct-game spending, citing IDC 2020 figures. AppLovin expects that market opportunity to grow to $283 billion by 2024.</p>\n<p>Here are five things to know about AppLovin.</p>\n<p><b>The cost of business more than doubled, and Apple and Google are a reason</b></p>\n<p>AppLovin said it took in $1.45 billion in revenue in 2020, resulting in a loss of $125.9 million, versus 2019 revenue of $994.1 million and net income of $119 million. In 2018, the company booked revenue of $483.4 million for a loss of $260 million.</p>\n<p>The big cost hike in 2020 versus 2019 was a 130% jump in cost-of-business expenses to $555.6 million, with $112 million of it due to payment-processing fees. Those payment-processing fees are the same kind that&nbsp;Epic Games balked about&nbsp;paying to Apple Inc.’s&nbsp;App Store and Alphabet Inc.’s&nbsp;Google Play store, that ran as high as 30% of purchases.</p>\n<p>“The mobile-app ecosystem depends in part on a relatively small number of third-party distribution platforms, such as the Apple App Store, the Google Play store, and Facebook, some of which are direct competitors,” AppLovin said in its S-1. “We derive significant revenue from the distribution of our apps through these third-party platforms and almost all of our [in-app purchases] are made through the payment processing systems of these third-party platforms.”</p>\n<p><b>Nearly a quarter of proceeds will go to pay down debt</b></p>\n<p>AppLovin estimates it stands to bring in net proceeds of about $1.74 billion if it prices at the mid-point of its range.</p>\n<p>Of that, the company said it plans to use about $400 million to pay off debt under its revolving credit facility. Currently, AppLovin lists $1.6 billion in debt.</p>\n<p>“Additionally, we expect to use a portion of the net proceeds to enter into strategic acquisitions and partnerships,” AppLovin said. “However, other than our pending acquisition of Adjust, we do not have definitive agreements or commitments for any material acquisitions or partnerships at this time.”</p>\n<p><b>Acquisitions are part of its growth strategy</b></p>\n<p>Most recently, AppLovin announced plans to acquire Germany-based mobile-app measurement and marketing company Adjust. While AppLovin did not disclose terms of the deal, Crunchbase estimated the price at $1 billion.</p>\n<p>The company did state in its S-1 that it has “invested over $1&nbsp;billion across 15 strategic acquisitions and partnerships” since the beginning of 2018.</p>\n<p>AppLovin acquired mobile-game developer Machine Zone Inc. last May for an undisclosed amount, although Crunchbase estimated the deal at $500 million.</p>\n<p>That follows acquisitions of software development kit-management platform&nbsp;SafeDK in 2019, in-app header bidding company Max Inc. in 2018, and Germany-based mobile-ad network&nbsp;Moqoqo in 2014.</p>\n<p>“We will continue to explore and evaluate additional acquisitions, some of which may be the same size or even larger in scale and investment than the Machine Zone acquisition and our pending acquisition of Adjust,” the company said.</p>\n<p><b>KKR has the lion’s share of voting control</b></p>\n<p>The company plans to offer Class A shares in the IPO, which carry one vote, while early investors’ Class B shares will carry 20 votes. AppLovin has raised $1.4 billion in funding from investors, according to Crunchbase.</p>\n<p>Holding the reins will be KKR Denali Holdings, which will hold 72.4% of Class B shares after the offering, for 67.4% of the voting power. Other Class B shareholders include Applovin Chief Executive and co-founder Adam Foroughi, who will own 19.4% of the Class B shares with 18.1% voting rights, and Chief Financial Officer Herald Chen, with 3.2% of the Class B shares and 3% of voting rights.</p>\n<p>The company will also establish a nonvoting class of shares, though those shares do not yet exist.</p>\n<p><b>Attempt to sell to Chinese firm failed, and KKR stepped in</b></p>\n<p>If it wasn’t for U.S. concerns about investments in strategic assets from China, KKR may have never got involved and AppLovin would not have gone public.</p>\n<p>In September 2016, AppLovin agreed to be acquired outright by Chinese private-equity firm Orient Hontai Capital for&nbsp;$1.4 billion.

The company plans to sell at least 25 million shares and have about 360 million shares outstanding, which would trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker “APP.”\nThe Palo Alto, Calif., company, which will be a decade old in July, makes marketing, monetization and analytics software that helps app developers grow their businesses. It also owns a portfolio of more than 200 free-to-play mobile games with in-app purchases. The expected valuation of AppLovin dwarfs that of a recent comparable IPO, Unity Software Inc.,which was valued at nearly $14 billion at the time of its IPO in September.\nIn its Securities and Exchange Commission filing, AppLovin said it sees a total market opportunity of about $189 billion, with $101 billion of that in in-app advertising revenue and about $88 billion in worldwide direct-game spending, citing IDC 2020 figures. AppLovin expects that market opportunity to grow to $283 billion by 2024.\nHere are five things to know about AppLovin.\nThe cost of business more than doubled, and Apple and Google are a reason\nAppLovin said it took in $1.45 billion in revenue in 2020, resulting in a loss of $125.9 million, versus 2019 revenue of $994.1 million and net income of $119 million. In 2018, the company booked revenue of $483.4 million for a loss of $260 million.\nThe big cost hike in 2020 versus 2019 was a 130% jump in cost-of-business expenses to $555.6 million, with $112 million of it due to payment-processing fees. Those payment-processing fees are the same kind that Epic Games balked about paying to Apple Inc.’s App Store and Alphabet Inc.’s Google Play store, that ran as high as 30% of purchases.\n“The mobile-app ecosystem depends in part on a relatively small number of third-party distribution platforms, such as the Apple App Store, the Google Play store, and Facebook, some of which are direct competitors,” AppLovin said in its S-1. “We derive significant revenue from the distribution of our apps through these third-party platforms and almost all of our [in-app purchases] are made through the payment processing systems of these third-party platforms.”\nNearly a quarter of proceeds will go to pay down debt\nAppLovin estimates it stands to bring in net proceeds of about $1.74 billion if it prices at the mid-point of its range.\nOf that, the company said it plans to use about $400 million to pay off debt under its revolving credit facility. Currently, AppLovin lists $1.6 billion in debt.\n“Additionally, we expect to use a portion of the net proceeds to enter into strategic acquisitions and partnerships,” AppLovin said. “However, other than our pending acquisition of Adjust, we do not have definitive agreements or commitments for any material acquisitions or partnerships at this time.”\nAcquisitions are part of its growth strategy\nMost recently, AppLovin announced plans to acquire Germany-based mobile-app measurement and marketing company Adjust. While AppLovin did not disclose terms of the deal, Crunchbase estimated the price at $1 billion.\nThe company did state in its S-1 that it has “invested over $1 billion across 15 strategic acquisitions and partnerships” since the beginning of 2018.\nAppLovin acquired mobile-game developer Machine Zone Inc. last May for an undisclosed amount, although Crunchbase estimated the deal at $500 million.\nThat follows acquisitions of software development kit-management platform SafeDK in 2019, in-app header bidding company Max Inc. in 2018, and Germany-based mobile-ad network Moqoqo in 2014.\n“We will continue to explore and evaluate additional acquisitions, some of which may be the same size or even larger in scale and investment than the Machine Zone acquisition and our pending acquisition of Adjust,” the company said.\nKKR has the lion’s share of voting control\nThe company plans to offer Class A shares in the IPO, which carry one vote, while early investors’ Class B shares will carry 20 votes. AppLovin has raised $1.4 billion in funding from investors, according to Crunchbase.\nHolding the reins will be KKR Denali Holdings, which will hold 72.4% of Class B shares after the offering, for 67.4% of the voting power. Other Class B shareholders include Applovin Chief Executive and co-founder Adam Foroughi, who will own 19.4% of the Class B shares with 18.1% voting rights, and Chief Financial Officer Herald Chen, with 3.2% of the Class B shares and 3% of voting rights.\nThe company will also establish a nonvoting class of shares, though those shares do not yet exist.\nAttempt to sell to Chinese firm failed, and KKR stepped in\nIf it wasn’t for U.S. concerns about investments in strategic assets from China, KKR may have never got involved and AppLovin would not have gone public.\nIn September 2016, AppLovin agreed to be acquired outright by Chinese private-equity firm Orient Hontai Capital for $1.4 billion. A little over a year later, that deal was scrapped — reportedly after the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States pushed back on the deal over customer data concerns — and AppLovin agreed to take an $841 million debt investment from Orient Hontai. Prior to that deal, Orient Hontai had invested $140 million in the company; currently, Orient Hontai owns 26.2 million Class A shares.\nIn July 2018, KKR & Co. invested $400 million for a minority stake in AppLovin of roughly 110 million shares. At the suggested IPO price, that $400 million investment would be worth more than $8 billion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":24,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":887627860,"gmtCreate":1632030492050,"gmtModify":1676530690208,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578561847510900","idStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Cool]&nbsp;","listText":"[Cool]&nbsp;","text":"[Cool]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/887627860","repostId":"2168657952","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2168657952","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1631921580,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2168657952?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-18 07:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 closes below a key bullish trend line for the first time since June, signaling bearish tilt","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2168657952","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"S&P 500 ends below 50-day moving average for first time since June 18\nThe broad-market S&P 500 index","content":"<p>S&amp;P 500 ends below 50-day moving average for first time since June 18</p>\n<p>The broad-market S&amp;P 500 index closed below its short-term trend line for the first time since mid June, signaling that a bearish turn is taking hold of the U.S. stock market ahead of the policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee meeting next week.</p>\n<p>The S&amp;P 500 index closed on Friday down 0.9% at 4,432.99, ending beneath its 50-day moving average at 4,436.67, FactSet data show.

But investors still might think it's too late to buy shares, as the stock is still up 260% from <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> year ago, and just under 1,000% higher since the start of 2020.</p>\n<p>Though the company is making progress toward profitability, Nio is still recording net losses. With a market cap of over $70 billion, there is already much future success built into the company's share price.

Image source: Nio.</span></p>\n<h2>Growing the company, and its market</h2>\n<p>Nio has been quickly growing sales of its EVs. The company delivered almost 44,000 vehicles in 2020, representing a 113% increase above 2019 levels. That growth has continued into 2021, even with some production delays from the global semiconductor shortage. In the 2021 second quarter, Nio more than doubled vehicle deliveries again over the comparable 2020 period. But as previously mentioned, that kind of growth is already built into the company's valuation, and the overall production volume is still relatively low.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA.U\">Two</a> important news items came from Nio in recent months, however. The company announced in May that it will begin selling its vehicles outside of China for the first time, entering the European market initially in Norway. Also in May, Nio said it will support that expansion with a new manufacturing agreement with its state-owned partner Jianghuai Automobile Group (JAC).</p>\n<p>The three-year agreement extension through May 2024 will allow JAC to continue manufacturing Nio's three current SUV models as well as its upcoming ET7 luxury sedan planned for production beginning in early 2022. It will also include potentially new models yet to be announced. Also, due to growing demand for Nio vehicles, a new factory under construction will help scale production by twice the current capacity to about 240,000 vehicles per year.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4fc43801dd6a94686ac5b655234ae4ab\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"393\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>A customer in Norway sits in a Nio. Image source: Nio.</span></p>\n<h2>What comes next</h2>\n<p>Nio announced that on July 20 it shipped the first load of its flagship ES8 electric SUVs from Shanghai destined for Norway. China is the largest automotive market in the world, but Europe is a global leader in EV sales. A combination of increasing production capacity and a move into another large market represents the growth in scale that Nio shareholders should want to see.</p>\n<p>And the company isn't just selling vehicles in Norway. It plans to establish a presence with a full Nio ecosystem similar to its home market.

But investors still might think it's too late to buy shares, as the stock is still up 260% from one year ago, and just under 1,000% higher since the start of 2020.\nThough the company is making progress toward profitability, Nio is still recording net losses. With a market cap of over $70 billion, there is already much future success built into the company's share price. But recent progress on its growth plans indicate it might not be too late to buy the stock, as long as you understand the risks involved with an aggressive investment such as this, and enter with a long-term mindset.\nNio ES8 electric SUVs being loaded for transit to Norway. Image source: Nio.\nGrowing the company, and its market\nNio has been quickly growing sales of its EVs. The company delivered almost 44,000 vehicles in 2020, representing a 113% increase above 2019 levels. That growth has continued into 2021, even with some production delays from the global semiconductor shortage. In the 2021 second quarter, Nio more than doubled vehicle deliveries again over the comparable 2020 period. But as previously mentioned, that kind of growth is already built into the company's valuation, and the overall production volume is still relatively low.\nTwo important news items came from Nio in recent months, however. The company announced in May that it will begin selling its vehicles outside of China for the first time, entering the European market initially in Norway. Also in May, Nio said it will support that expansion with a new manufacturing agreement with its state-owned partner Jianghuai Automobile Group (JAC).\nThe three-year agreement extension through May 2024 will allow JAC to continue manufacturing Nio's three current SUV models as well as its upcoming ET7 luxury sedan planned for production beginning in early 2022. It will also include potentially new models yet to be announced. Also, due to growing demand for Nio vehicles, a new factory under construction will help scale production by twice the current capacity to about 240,000 vehicles per year.\nA customer in Norway sits in a Nio. Image source: Nio.\nWhat comes next\nNio announced that on July 20 it shipped the first load of its flagship ES8 electric SUVs from Shanghai destined for Norway. China is the largest automotive market in the world, but Europe is a global leader in EV sales. A combination of increasing production capacity and a move into another large market represents the growth in scale that Nio shareholders should want to see.\nAnd the company isn't just selling vehicles in Norway. It plans to establish a presence with a full Nio ecosystem similar to its home market. The company said in a statement that in addition to ES8 deliveries to customers beginning in September, the company will also offer a service network, its unique battery charging and swap stations, and a social community it calls Nio House and Nio Life to Norwegian users.\nThe battery swap stations add an income stream with a subscription service to quickly \"recharge\" vehicles with an automated battery exchange. The company has a plan to expand the service in China, and will offer it in Norway as well.\nAbout the valuation\nInvestors, of course, shouldn't just invest in a plan and a dream. But based on a price-to-sales ratio, Nio is similarly valued to Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), if not less expensive.\nNio market cap data by YCharts.\nThat doesn't make it cheap, but for those who believe the company can continue to grow along with the EV sector in China and beyond, shares of Nio could still make sense for a position in an aggressive portion of a portfolio.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":171,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":141999435,"gmtCreate":1625830585427,"gmtModify":1703749406005,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578561847510900","idStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Cool]&nbsp;","listText":"[Cool]&nbsp;","text":"[Cool]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/141999435","repostId":"1140589344","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1140589344","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625643438,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1140589344?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-07 15:37","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon And Apple Are Coiled Springs About To Explode To The Upside","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1140589344","media":"seeking alpha","summary":"Amazon and Apple have been left out of 2021's market rally underperforming the S&P index and their other tech conglomerate peers.An opportunity is being presented to investors as both Amazon and Apple are in the midst of record-breaking years from a financial standpoint.As a shareholder, I would love to see Amazon do a stock split and Apple allocate more to its dividend than buybacks.Over the years, AMZN's runway of growth has correlated to gigantic returns for shareholders.

AMZN has appreciated 7.35%, while AAPL is up 5.55% since the beginning of the year. Compared to the SPDR S&amp;P 500 Trust ETF (SPY) (16.22%), Microsoft (MSFT) (25.71%), Facebook (FB) (31.10%), and Alphabet(NASDAQ:GOOG)(GOOGL) (41.33%), shares of AMZN and AAPL are being left behind. AMZN and AAPL have barely contributed to the major indexes reaching all-time highs in 2021, and nothing they seem to do impresses the investment community. With the story of growth spilling over into 2021 and the latest short squeeze, sticking it to the hedge fund craze, I believe AMZN and AAPL's accomplishments are being overlooked.</p>\n<p>Sometimes opportunities hide in plain sight. Access to information in 2021 is a 24/7 business as the headlines never stop. With so much focus on GameStop (GME), AMC Entertainment (AMC), and SPACs, it's not surprising that investors overlook what is occurring with AMZN and AAPL. These companies are tech royalty and unleashed huge earnings beats in Q1 of 2021 while delivering record-breaking year-end results for 2020, yet the market shrugged it off. Over the years, big tech has delivered lucrative returns for shareholders, and I believe these investments still offer significant upside in the future. The music isn't stopping, AMZN and AAPL won't be left without a chair, and they will still be dominant forces for years to come. Going into Q2 earnings at the end of July, I believe picking up shares of AMZN or AAPL is an excellent play as we turn the quarter to the second half of 2021 and approach the holiday season.</p>\n<p>(Source: Seeking Alpha)</p>\n<p><b>Amazon continues to deliver even if its share price has traded sideways in 2021</b></p>\n<p>Over the years, AMZN's runway of growth has correlated to gigantic returns for shareholders. Over the past10 years, AMZN has increased by 1,582.31% while generating 389.72% in gains for the past five years. Compared to the rest of big tech and the S&amp;P 500 Index, AMZN has underperformed, generating single-digit gains in 2021 while the S&amp;P has exceeded 16% in appreciation. The market hasn't gotten the memo that AMZN's runway for growth isn't decreasing, and AMZN has become a true profit center adding to the bottom line and shareholder equity. On2/2/21, we learned that AMZN crossed the $100 billion revenue mark in Q4 2020 for the first time as they delivered $125.55 billion in revenue, an increase of 43.6% YoY, beating estimates by $5.82 billion. In Q4 2020, AMZN obliterated EPS estimates by $6.96 as they generated $14.09 in EPS. AMZN alsogenerated$6.87 billion in operating income and $31 billion in free cash flow (FCF) for 2020, increasing 20% YoY. AMZNfollowed upwith an explosive Q1 to start 2021, keeping their revenue above the $100 billion mark at $108.52 billion, increasing 43.7% YoY while beating estimates by $3.89 billion. Just like a great music album, the hits kept coming as AMZN generated $15.79 of EPS, operating cash flow increased to $67.2 billion, up 69% in the trailing twelve months (TTM). Its FCF increased to $26.4 billion in the TTM compared to $24.3 billion for the TTM that ended on 3/31/20.</p>\n<p>When I read throughAMZN's previous two quarters, I am baffled how their shares are trailing the S&amp;P, at the very least. How the market isn't getting excited about this growth is ridiculous. Going back to Q1 2017, AMZN has increased its overall Q1 revenue by $72.80 billion, or 203.85%. Q1 sets the stage for the year, and AMZN is already starting off exceeding the $100 billion revenue mark. If AMZN was to see zero growth in Q2, Q3, and Q4, which is extremely unlikely, they would finish 2021 with $434.07 billion in revenue, an increase of 12.44% or $48.01 billion. Looking at AMZN's previous history, its average quarterly growth rate YoY in Q2, Q3, and Q4 exceeded 28%. If AMZN delivers revenue in the next three quarters 50% less than their average growth rates, it will finish 2021 with $465.96 billion in revenue. If their averages hold up, AMZN will come dangerously close to breaching $500 billion with $498.30 billion in revenue for 2021. AMZN generated $88.9 billion in revenue for Q2 of 2020, and it expects to deliver $110-$116 billion in revenue for Q2 of 2021. If AMZN comes in at $110 billion, that will increase by $21.1 billion (23.73%) YoY. AMZN will likely generate over $450 billion revenue for 2021 as on the low-end, it will have generated $208.52 billion for the first half of 2021 once Q2 earnings are released.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e0238d2575d6cb248ff8e803ab0d6a49\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Amazon)</p>\n<p>AMZN isn't just spending money for the sake of generating increased amounts of revenue; it's flowing to the bottom line. Since 2017, including the TTM for 2021, AMZN has increased its net income by $24.53 billion or 1,034.67%. The net income generated in Q1 2021 ($8.11 billion) is where things get interesting. For the entire year of 2020, AMZN generated $26.90 billion in net income. In Q1 of 2021, AMZN's net income didn't decrease from Q4 2020, and they generated $8.11 billion in net income, which was 30.13% of the total net income generated in 2020. AMZN is generating profits hand over fist and they are increasing QoQ. AMZN's growth engine is alive and well, as it is on track to generate almost all of 2020's net income in the first nine months of 2021, setting the stage for another record along with revenue generated. The market is overlooking these growth metrics, which is creating an opportunity for investors.</p>\n<p>(Source: Amazon)</p>\n<p>As AMZN crushes earnings estimates and generates increased revenue and profits, I am not sure if people realize what's happening to AMZN's balance sheet. In the past three fiscal years of 2018, 2019, and 2020, AMZN's total equity has increased by $65.7 billion (237.09%) from $27.71 billion to $93.40 billion. In Q1 2021, total equity increased by $9.92 billion (10.62%) as it exceeded $103 billion. AMZN is firing on all cylinders, and its newfound revenue is paving the way for increased profits and total equity in AMZN. Why the market isn't celebrating this is perplexing, but eventually, the tide will turn, and I think Amazon will be right up there with Google and Facebook in 2021 returns.</p>\n<p><b>Apple continues to establish new records and push the envelope of what companies can achieve</b></p>\n<p>Love them or hate them, Apple is an iconic American company with a cult-like following. AAPL users are some of the most loyal customers and often purchase several items throughout its ecosystem. It's hard to determine which is America's best company, but if we're going by market cap, AAPL wears the crown. Apple may not generate the most revenue as Amazon and Walmart(NYSE:WMT)exceed the revenue AAPL produces annually. AAPL may not have the best net income conversion ratio as MSFT and FB both have better ratios. AAPL builds products and develops services that engage their following and become integral to their everyday lives. This has allowed AAPL to generate the largest amount of profits of any company I know of. In 2020, AAPL generated $57.41 billion in net income, which was $43.9 billion more than WMT, yet WMT produced $559.15 billion in revenue from its operations. AAPL's $57.41 billion in net income was also $28.26 billion larger than FB, while FB converted the largest amount of net income from its revenue at a rate of 33.9% from the big tech conglomerates.</p>\n<p>The only thing different about 2021 is AAPL's share price isn't appreciating. Since I thought AMZN was bad, I guess AAPL's price action is horrible. Over the past ten years,AAPLhas appreciated by 1,042.46% and 473.05% over the past five years. AAPL has made their shareholders very happy, from stock splits to buybacks, dividends, and price appreciation, but many have asked is the magic gone? I have written several articles on AAPL, and the number of negative comments about AAPL and its management team is mind-blowing. So who's correct, the bears or the bulls? Are AAPL's best days behind them, or are they just getting started? Only time will tell, but the way I interpret the data indicates AAPL's best days could be ahead of them.</p>\n<p>I believe investors have been given a gift as shares of AAPL have been unable to break out and form its next leg upward. Is AAPL too expensive, under $140? I don't believe so. The facts are AAPL's growth isn't stopping, and the 2021 fiscal year has been a home run even if the market is treating it like it just hit singles in Q1 and Q2. In the fiscal year 2020, which ends in September for AAPL, they generated $274.52 billion in revenue, $57.41 billion in net income, and delivered $3.31 in EPS. 2020 was a record year for AAPL in revenue and EPS while a close second in net income.</p>\n<p>So what's going wrong in 2021, and why is AAPL treading water? Nothing is wrong as AAPL is firing on all cylinders, and it's unexplainable why shares have been left of 2021's market rally.In Q1 of the fiscal year 2021, AAPL posted record-breaking revenue with $111.4 billion, which increased 21% YoY, EPS of $1.68, up 36% YoY, and net income of $28.76 billion. InQ2 of the fiscal year 2021, AAPL generated $89.6 billion in revenue, EPS of $1.40, and net income of $23.63 billion. For the first six months of 2021, AAPL has delivered an increase of $44.29 billion (35.7%) in total revenue, $18.9 billion (56.44%) in net income, and $1.2 (62.83%) in EPS from its first six months of 2020. Putting that in perspective, AAPL has already delivered 61.33% of the total revenue, 91.25% of the total net income, and 93.96% of EPS in the first six months of operations compared to what was generated throughout the entire 2020 fiscal year. How hasn't this been in the headlines, and why are people consumed with GME, AMC, and straight-up speculation? What's Mr. Market going to do when AAPL delivers Q3 earnings on 7/29/21 (estimated), and they overwhelmingly exceed the amount of net income and EPS generated in 2020 in just nine months? If people want growth, look at AAPL's numbers. They're not producing these increases off of $1 billion revenue and $100 million net income. It's shocking but fine with me as I add shares before AAPL's next leg up.</p>\n<p>(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)</p>\n<p><b>As a shareholder of Amazon and Apple, this is what I wish they would do</b></p>\n<p>I am interested to see if the Seeking Alpha community agrees with me. I haven't been very vocal about this, but there are two things I wish AMZN and AAPL would do. I want AMZN to do a stock split. Yes, I understand that ten shares of a $1,000 stock and 100 shares of a $100 stock is the same amount of equity in a company. I also understand that if the $1,000 stock goes to $1,500 and the $100 stock goes to $150, both are a 50% increase, and an investor would generate the same return as both investments would be worth $15,000. I want AMZN to do a significant stock split so more people could afford to own shares of AMZN. If AMZN does a 40 for 1 split, the company still has the same valuation but shares now become affordable for many investors. A stock split doesn't matter for some shareholders, and they would reference what the price of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B)shares have done, and Warren Buffett has never paid a dividend or split the shares. As AMZN has become one of the most iconic companies in America, I think it would be great if more investors could invest directly into AMZN without buying either fractional shares or an ETF where AMZN is one of the largest holdings. If AMZN did a large split, what would that do for the volume and price action of the stock? AAPL hasn't been shy about making its shares affordable for most investors, and I think AMZN should follow suit.</p>\n<p>I am moving on to AAPL, enough with the vast capital allocation to buybacks. AAPL's return of capital is second to none, and not a single company is as shareholder-friendly as AAPL. Since the fiscal year 2012, AAPL has returned $550 billion to shareholders through dividends and buybacks. I read many earnings reports, and there isn't a single company I know of that comes relatively close to these numbers. In Q2, the Board of Directors at AAPL authorized an increase of $90 billion to the existingshare repurchase program. I get it; AAPL wants to maintain a net-zero cash position and reward shareholders. AAPL generates so much free cash flow, operating income, and net income that it can fund their growth and any business endeavors they would like to embark on while still rewarding shareholders.</p>\n<p>So what would I love to see AAPL do? I think it would be more beneficial to redirect a significant portion of capital allocated to buybacks to its dividend. In Q1 and Q2 of 2021, AAPL allocated $43 billion to buybacks and $7 billion to its dividend.AAPL's dividendis a whopping $0.88 per share, which is a 0.64% yield. AAPL's payout ratio is 17.06%, and can certainly afford to increase the dividend. In 2021's fiscal year, AAPL has paid $0.44 per share of its annual dividend, costing them $7 billion. AAPL has given back $50 billion of capital in 2021 to shareholders, $43 billion in buybacks, and $7 billion in dividends. As a shareholder, I would be so much happier if $28 billion was allocated to the dividend and $22 billion to buybacks over the first six months of the fiscal year 2021. Think about it; that would mean AAPL would have paid its shareholders $1.76 per share instead of $0.44. This would make the annual dividend $3.52 instead of $0.88. A dividend of $3.52 per share would put AAPL at a forward yield of roughly 2.57%.</p>\n<p>AAPL has more than enough firepower to make this happen. AAPL could even go to 3% without blinking. How much more enticing of an investment would AAPL be with a 3% dividend? I think putting a greater focus on the dividend would benefit existing shareholders more than focusing on buybacks. I am not saying buybacks are bad by any means, but I think it's time for AAPL to allocate more capital to its dividend. I am interested to know if you agree, so please comment below and let me know.</p>\n<p><b>I believe classifying Amazon or Apple as a monopoly is incorrect, and as a shareholder, I am not worried about either company being broken up</b></p>\n<p>I am not a lawyer, and I didn't go to law school, so this isn't legal advice. It's strictly my opinion.</p>\n<p>First, what is a monopoly? A company will be considered a monopoly if there is an absence of competition in the marketplace, leading to increased costs for the consumer for inferior products and services. For a company to be classified as a monopoly, it would need to have total or near-total control of a market while its product offerings dominate a sector or industry. When a company has become a monopoly, it can use its position to create unfair business advantages by fixing prices, creating artificial scarcities causing inflated prices, and stifle competition by eliminating new competitors and creating a market where consumers don't have a choice of products. When a company becomes a monopoly, the market it operates in becomes inefficient, unfair, and unequal to the consumers and other businesses. Now by that description of a monopoly, does AMZN or AAPL fit that description?</p>\n<p>How is AMZN a monopoly? In the fiscal year of2020, AMZNgenerated $386.06 billion in revenue. $236.28 billion or 61% came from North America, excluding revenue from AWS. AMZN's success in 2020 didn't stop the following companies from generating large amounts of revenue as well:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Walmart(WMT) $559.15 billion</li>\n <li>Costco(COST) $166.76 billion</li>\n <li>Walgreens(WBA) $139.54 billion</li>\n <li>The Kroger Co.(KR) $132.5 billion</li>\n <li>The Home Depot(HD) $132.11 billion</li>\n <li>Target(TGT) $92.4 billion</li>\n <li>Lowe's Companies(LOW) $89.6 billion</li>\n <li>Dollar General(DG) $33.75 billion</li>\n <li>Dollar Tree(DLTR) $25.51 billion</li>\n <li>Macy's(M) $17.35 billion</li>\n <li>Etc.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The National Retail Foundation publishes a list of the top100 retailersin the U.S. on an annual basis. The 2020 list equaled $3.3 trillion in combined revenue. WMT came in at the top spot with $523.96 billion, equivalent to 16.39% of the top 100's combined revenue. AMZN was the runner-up in second place with $250.5 billion of revenue, accounting for 7.8% of the entire top 100. Going strictly by the numbers, I am not seeing how AMZN could be considered a monopoly as there are many competitors, and AMZN does not have a controlling interest in the sector.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c6ae96a0668d39c1279e165b229bbc33\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"488\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>(Source:AMZN)</p>\n<p>Could you consider AMZN a monopoly in shipping? I would say no, considering the United States Post Office, FedEx (FDX), UPS (UPS), and XPO Logistics (XPO) are all independent organizations that have not been put out of business by AMZN. In addition, companies such as WMT and TGT have enhanced their internal logistics to move products around the country quicker.</p>\n<p>How about thecloud? Is AMZN a monopoly there? Going by the classification of a monopoly, I would have to say no; AMZN does not have a monopoly on cloud services. While they have the largest position with almost 1/3rd of the revenue, cloud infrastructure spending has increased QoQ sequentially since Q1 2018, and AMZN's market share has trended sideways. While AMZN's AWS revenue increases, their market share isn't, which means new business is also finding its way to companies such as MSFT, GOOGL, and Alibaba (BABA). Competition, provider options, and competitive pricing all occur in the cloud space as AMZN faces extensive competition from other tech giants with deep financial resources.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5bc355a07746c16ba3197b19a1a6b6c4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"434\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>(Source: Synergy Research Group)</p>\n<p>(Source: Canalys)</p>\n<p>What about AAPL? Could they be classified as a monopoly? This is a crazier theory than AMZN. There are three main hardware categories which include desktop, mobile, and tablets, where AAPL operates. AAPL has a 15.57% market share behind MSFT's 72.97% on a global stage fordesktop operating systems. Looking at theU.S.alone, AAPL has a 27.82% market share vs. 61.48% from MSFT. This stat will shock people as AAPL has 26.35% of theglobal mobile operating system market sharewith iOS through its phones while Android has more than 2/3rds with 72.83%. In theU.S.alone, AAPL does have 57.68% of the market share in mobile operating systems, followed by 42% from Android. Intablets, AAPL has 56.39% of the market compared to Androids 43.52% on a global scale, and the metrics are similar in theU.Sas AAPL has 57.74% of the market while Android has 42.17%.</p>\n<p>Apple, Google, and Microsoft are global companies, and on a combined scale, 41.5% of theglobal operating systemsfall under Android, 30.57% with Microsoft, and 22.61% with Apple. In theU.S.alone, as its own segment, AAPL has 43.3% of the market while MSFT has 29.44% and GOOGL has 21.84%. Is this a monopoly? I wouldn't classify it as one. AAPL isn't price-fixing, and they certainly don't have an unfair advantage. Consumers have choices in the product offerings available to them, and there is healthy competition among AAPL, MSFT, and GOOGL. The consumer market is speaking loudly that their preference is AAPL in some categories and not others. If AAPL was to hike up their prices by 25% or 50%, consumers would still have other options and could choose to leave the AAPL environment. AAPL has stayed competitive in its pricing methodology over the years, and I can't see how they could be considered a monopoly.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4100457cfb03a212a0a0e0750003d052\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"516\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>(Source: StatCounter)</p>\n<p>I am sick and tired of hearing the words antitrust, monopoly, monopolistic, Amazon, and Apple used in the same sentences. Newsflash, Amazon and Apple are not lawmaking bodies and didn't write a single law in the United States. The United States government defined, created, and established the rules. Amazon and Apple hired specialists in the respective fields of accounting and law to navigate and operate within the established rules. If Amazon or Apple committed any wrongdoing, there are countermeasures as the IRS and SEC would investigate and bring charges forward. I am not a lawyer, but I can't see how anyone could prove AMZN or AAPL is a monopoly. As a shareholder, I am not worried about AAPL or AMZN being broken up.</p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>The first six months are over for 2021, and earnings season is a couple of weeks away. I believe AMZN and AAPL present golden opportunities as they are underperforming the S&amp;P index and the other tech conglomerates, including GOOGL, FB, and MSFT. AMZN and AAPL are on track to deliver record years across many financial metrics, yet Mr. Market hasn't been excited. I believe too much emphasis has been placed on MEME stocks, while many headlines are written to generate clicks. AMZN is on track to generate more than $450 billion in revenue for 2021, increasing $63.94 billion (16.56%) while significantly enlarging its net income and shareholder equity. Without a shadow of a doubt, AAPL will exceed 2020's total net income and EPS once its Q3 numbers are posted, and Q4's results will leave people astonished. I think the narrative will change in the upcoming weeks, and shares of AAPL and AMZN will act like a coiled spring and break out to the upside.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Amazon And Apple Are Coiled Springs About To Explode To The Upside</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nAmazon And Apple Are Coiled Springs About To Explode To The Upside\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-07 15:37 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4437594-amazon-apple-coiled-springs-about-to-explode-to-upside><strong>seeking alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nAmazon and Apple have been left out of 2021's market rally underperforming the S&P index and their other tech conglomerate peers.\nAn opportunity is being presented to investors as both Amazon...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4437594-amazon-apple-coiled-springs-about-to-explode-to-upside\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"09086":"华夏纳指-U","03086":"华夏纳指","QNETCN":"纳斯达克中美互联网老虎指数","AAPL":"苹果","AMZN":"亚马逊"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4437594-amazon-apple-coiled-springs-about-to-explode-to-upside","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1140589344","content_text":"Summary\n\nAmazon and Apple have been left out of 2021's market rally underperforming the S&P index and their other tech conglomerate peers.\nAn opportunity is being presented to investors as both Amazon and Apple are in the midst of record-breaking years from a financial standpoint.\nI am not worried about either Amazon or Apple being broken up as neither fit the premise of a monopoly.\nAs a shareholder, I would love to see Amazon do a stock split and Apple allocate more to its dividend than buybacks.\n\nWho would have thought that out of the big tech conglomerates, Amazon (AMZN) and Apple(NASDAQ:AAPL)would be the worst investments for the first half of 2021? AMZN has appreciated 7.35%, while AAPL is up 5.55% since the beginning of the year. Compared to the SPDR S&P 500 Trust ETF (SPY) (16.22%), Microsoft (MSFT) (25.71%), Facebook (FB) (31.10%), and Alphabet(NASDAQ:GOOG)(GOOGL) (41.33%), shares of AMZN and AAPL are being left behind. AMZN and AAPL have barely contributed to the major indexes reaching all-time highs in 2021, and nothing they seem to do impresses the investment community. With the story of growth spilling over into 2021 and the latest short squeeze, sticking it to the hedge fund craze, I believe AMZN and AAPL's accomplishments are being overlooked.\nSometimes opportunities hide in plain sight. Access to information in 2021 is a 24/7 business as the headlines never stop. With so much focus on GameStop (GME), AMC Entertainment (AMC), and SPACs, it's not surprising that investors overlook what is occurring with AMZN and AAPL. These companies are tech royalty and unleashed huge earnings beats in Q1 of 2021 while delivering record-breaking year-end results for 2020, yet the market shrugged it off. Over the years, big tech has delivered lucrative returns for shareholders, and I believe these investments still offer significant upside in the future. The music isn't stopping, AMZN and AAPL won't be left without a chair, and they will still be dominant forces for years to come. Going into Q2 earnings at the end of July, I believe picking up shares of AMZN or AAPL is an excellent play as we turn the quarter to the second half of 2021 and approach the holiday season.\n(Source: Seeking Alpha)\nAmazon continues to deliver even if its share price has traded sideways in 2021\nOver the years, AMZN's runway of growth has correlated to gigantic returns for shareholders. Over the past10 years, AMZN has increased by 1,582.31% while generating 389.72% in gains for the past five years. Compared to the rest of big tech and the S&P 500 Index, AMZN has underperformed, generating single-digit gains in 2021 while the S&P has exceeded 16% in appreciation. The market hasn't gotten the memo that AMZN's runway for growth isn't decreasing, and AMZN has become a true profit center adding to the bottom line and shareholder equity. On2/2/21, we learned that AMZN crossed the $100 billion revenue mark in Q4 2020 for the first time as they delivered $125.55 billion in revenue, an increase of 43.6% YoY, beating estimates by $5.82 billion. In Q4 2020, AMZN obliterated EPS estimates by $6.96 as they generated $14.09 in EPS. AMZN alsogenerated$6.87 billion in operating income and $31 billion in free cash flow (FCF) for 2020, increasing 20% YoY. AMZNfollowed upwith an explosive Q1 to start 2021, keeping their revenue above the $100 billion mark at $108.52 billion, increasing 43.7% YoY while beating estimates by $3.89 billion. Just like a great music album, the hits kept coming as AMZN generated $15.79 of EPS, operating cash flow increased to $67.2 billion, up 69% in the trailing twelve months (TTM). Its FCF increased to $26.4 billion in the TTM compared to $24.3 billion for the TTM that ended on 3/31/20.\nWhen I read throughAMZN's previous two quarters, I am baffled how their shares are trailing the S&P, at the very least. How the market isn't getting excited about this growth is ridiculous. Going back to Q1 2017, AMZN has increased its overall Q1 revenue by $72.80 billion, or 203.85%. Q1 sets the stage for the year, and AMZN is already starting off exceeding the $100 billion revenue mark. If AMZN was to see zero growth in Q2, Q3, and Q4, which is extremely unlikely, they would finish 2021 with $434.07 billion in revenue, an increase of 12.44% or $48.01 billion. Looking at AMZN's previous history, its average quarterly growth rate YoY in Q2, Q3, and Q4 exceeded 28%. If AMZN delivers revenue in the next three quarters 50% less than their average growth rates, it will finish 2021 with $465.96 billion in revenue. If their averages hold up, AMZN will come dangerously close to breaching $500 billion with $498.30 billion in revenue for 2021. AMZN generated $88.9 billion in revenue for Q2 of 2020, and it expects to deliver $110-$116 billion in revenue for Q2 of 2021. If AMZN comes in at $110 billion, that will increase by $21.1 billion (23.73%) YoY. AMZN will likely generate over $450 billion revenue for 2021 as on the low-end, it will have generated $208.52 billion for the first half of 2021 once Q2 earnings are released.\n\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Amazon)\nAMZN isn't just spending money for the sake of generating increased amounts of revenue; it's flowing to the bottom line. Since 2017, including the TTM for 2021, AMZN has increased its net income by $24.53 billion or 1,034.67%. The net income generated in Q1 2021 ($8.11 billion) is where things get interesting. For the entire year of 2020, AMZN generated $26.90 billion in net income. In Q1 of 2021, AMZN's net income didn't decrease from Q4 2020, and they generated $8.11 billion in net income, which was 30.13% of the total net income generated in 2020. AMZN is generating profits hand over fist and they are increasing QoQ. AMZN's growth engine is alive and well, as it is on track to generate almost all of 2020's net income in the first nine months of 2021, setting the stage for another record along with revenue generated. The market is overlooking these growth metrics, which is creating an opportunity for investors.\n(Source: Amazon)\nAs AMZN crushes earnings estimates and generates increased revenue and profits, I am not sure if people realize what's happening to AMZN's balance sheet. In the past three fiscal years of 2018, 2019, and 2020, AMZN's total equity has increased by $65.7 billion (237.09%) from $27.71 billion to $93.40 billion. In Q1 2021, total equity increased by $9.92 billion (10.62%) as it exceeded $103 billion. AMZN is firing on all cylinders, and its newfound revenue is paving the way for increased profits and total equity in AMZN. Why the market isn't celebrating this is perplexing, but eventually, the tide will turn, and I think Amazon will be right up there with Google and Facebook in 2021 returns.\nApple continues to establish new records and push the envelope of what companies can achieve\nLove them or hate them, Apple is an iconic American company with a cult-like following. AAPL users are some of the most loyal customers and often purchase several items throughout its ecosystem. It's hard to determine which is America's best company, but if we're going by market cap, AAPL wears the crown. Apple may not generate the most revenue as Amazon and Walmart(NYSE:WMT)exceed the revenue AAPL produces annually. AAPL may not have the best net income conversion ratio as MSFT and FB both have better ratios. AAPL builds products and develops services that engage their following and become integral to their everyday lives. This has allowed AAPL to generate the largest amount of profits of any company I know of. In 2020, AAPL generated $57.41 billion in net income, which was $43.9 billion more than WMT, yet WMT produced $559.15 billion in revenue from its operations. AAPL's $57.41 billion in net income was also $28.26 billion larger than FB, while FB converted the largest amount of net income from its revenue at a rate of 33.9% from the big tech conglomerates.\nThe only thing different about 2021 is AAPL's share price isn't appreciating. Since I thought AMZN was bad, I guess AAPL's price action is horrible. Over the past ten years,AAPLhas appreciated by 1,042.46% and 473.05% over the past five years. AAPL has made their shareholders very happy, from stock splits to buybacks, dividends, and price appreciation, but many have asked is the magic gone? I have written several articles on AAPL, and the number of negative comments about AAPL and its management team is mind-blowing. So who's correct, the bears or the bulls? Are AAPL's best days behind them, or are they just getting started? Only time will tell, but the way I interpret the data indicates AAPL's best days could be ahead of them.\nI believe investors have been given a gift as shares of AAPL have been unable to break out and form its next leg upward. Is AAPL too expensive, under $140? I don't believe so. The facts are AAPL's growth isn't stopping, and the 2021 fiscal year has been a home run even if the market is treating it like it just hit singles in Q1 and Q2. In the fiscal year 2020, which ends in September for AAPL, they generated $274.52 billion in revenue, $57.41 billion in net income, and delivered $3.31 in EPS. 2020 was a record year for AAPL in revenue and EPS while a close second in net income.\nSo what's going wrong in 2021, and why is AAPL treading water? Nothing is wrong as AAPL is firing on all cylinders, and it's unexplainable why shares have been left of 2021's market rally.In Q1 of the fiscal year 2021, AAPL posted record-breaking revenue with $111.4 billion, which increased 21% YoY, EPS of $1.68, up 36% YoY, and net income of $28.76 billion. InQ2 of the fiscal year 2021, AAPL generated $89.6 billion in revenue, EPS of $1.40, and net income of $23.63 billion. For the first six months of 2021, AAPL has delivered an increase of $44.29 billion (35.7%) in total revenue, $18.9 billion (56.44%) in net income, and $1.2 (62.83%) in EPS from its first six months of 2020. Putting that in perspective, AAPL has already delivered 61.33% of the total revenue, 91.25% of the total net income, and 93.96% of EPS in the first six months of operations compared to what was generated throughout the entire 2020 fiscal year. How hasn't this been in the headlines, and why are people consumed with GME, AMC, and straight-up speculation? What's Mr. Market going to do when AAPL delivers Q3 earnings on 7/29/21 (estimated), and they overwhelmingly exceed the amount of net income and EPS generated in 2020 in just nine months? If people want growth, look at AAPL's numbers. They're not producing these increases off of $1 billion revenue and $100 million net income. It's shocking but fine with me as I add shares before AAPL's next leg up.\n(Source: Steven Fiorillo) (Data Source: Apple)\nAs a shareholder of Amazon and Apple, this is what I wish they would do\nI am interested to see if the Seeking Alpha community agrees with me. I haven't been very vocal about this, but there are two things I wish AMZN and AAPL would do. I want AMZN to do a stock split. Yes, I understand that ten shares of a $1,000 stock and 100 shares of a $100 stock is the same amount of equity in a company. I also understand that if the $1,000 stock goes to $1,500 and the $100 stock goes to $150, both are a 50% increase, and an investor would generate the same return as both investments would be worth $15,000. I want AMZN to do a significant stock split so more people could afford to own shares of AMZN. If AMZN does a 40 for 1 split, the company still has the same valuation but shares now become affordable for many investors. A stock split doesn't matter for some shareholders, and they would reference what the price of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B)shares have done, and Warren Buffett has never paid a dividend or split the shares. As AMZN has become one of the most iconic companies in America, I think it would be great if more investors could invest directly into AMZN without buying either fractional shares or an ETF where AMZN is one of the largest holdings. If AMZN did a large split, what would that do for the volume and price action of the stock? AAPL hasn't been shy about making its shares affordable for most investors, and I think AMZN should follow suit.\nI am moving on to AAPL, enough with the vast capital allocation to buybacks. AAPL's return of capital is second to none, and not a single company is as shareholder-friendly as AAPL. Since the fiscal year 2012, AAPL has returned $550 billion to shareholders through dividends and buybacks. I read many earnings reports, and there isn't a single company I know of that comes relatively close to these numbers. In Q2, the Board of Directors at AAPL authorized an increase of $90 billion to the existingshare repurchase program. I get it; AAPL wants to maintain a net-zero cash position and reward shareholders. AAPL generates so much free cash flow, operating income, and net income that it can fund their growth and any business endeavors they would like to embark on while still rewarding shareholders.\nSo what would I love to see AAPL do? I think it would be more beneficial to redirect a significant portion of capital allocated to buybacks to its dividend. In Q1 and Q2 of 2021, AAPL allocated $43 billion to buybacks and $7 billion to its dividend.AAPL's dividendis a whopping $0.88 per share, which is a 0.64% yield. AAPL's payout ratio is 17.06%, and can certainly afford to increase the dividend. In 2021's fiscal year, AAPL has paid $0.44 per share of its annual dividend, costing them $7 billion. AAPL has given back $50 billion of capital in 2021 to shareholders, $43 billion in buybacks, and $7 billion in dividends. As a shareholder, I would be so much happier if $28 billion was allocated to the dividend and $22 billion to buybacks over the first six months of the fiscal year 2021. Think about it; that would mean AAPL would have paid its shareholders $1.76 per share instead of $0.44. This would make the annual dividend $3.52 instead of $0.88. A dividend of $3.52 per share would put AAPL at a forward yield of roughly 2.57%.\nAAPL has more than enough firepower to make this happen. AAPL could even go to 3% without blinking. How much more enticing of an investment would AAPL be with a 3% dividend? I think putting a greater focus on the dividend would benefit existing shareholders more than focusing on buybacks. I am not saying buybacks are bad by any means, but I think it's time for AAPL to allocate more capital to its dividend. I am interested to know if you agree, so please comment below and let me know.\nI believe classifying Amazon or Apple as a monopoly is incorrect, and as a shareholder, I am not worried about either company being broken up\nI am not a lawyer, and I didn't go to law school, so this isn't legal advice. It's strictly my opinion.\nFirst, what is a monopoly? A company will be considered a monopoly if there is an absence of competition in the marketplace, leading to increased costs for the consumer for inferior products and services. For a company to be classified as a monopoly, it would need to have total or near-total control of a market while its product offerings dominate a sector or industry. When a company has become a monopoly, it can use its position to create unfair business advantages by fixing prices, creating artificial scarcities causing inflated prices, and stifle competition by eliminating new competitors and creating a market where consumers don't have a choice of products. When a company becomes a monopoly, the market it operates in becomes inefficient, unfair, and unequal to the consumers and other businesses. Now by that description of a monopoly, does AMZN or AAPL fit that description?\nHow is AMZN a monopoly? In the fiscal year of2020, AMZNgenerated $386.06 billion in revenue. $236.28 billion or 61% came from North America, excluding revenue from AWS. AMZN's success in 2020 didn't stop the following companies from generating large amounts of revenue as well:\n\nWalmart(WMT) $559.15 billion\nCostco(COST) $166.76 billion\nWalgreens(WBA) $139.54 billion\nThe Kroger Co.(KR) $132.5 billion\nThe Home Depot(HD) $132.11 billion\nTarget(TGT) $92.4 billion\nLowe's Companies(LOW) $89.6 billion\nDollar General(DG) $33.75 billion\nDollar Tree(DLTR) $25.51 billion\nMacy's(M) $17.35 billion\nEtc.\n\nThe National Retail Foundation publishes a list of the top100 retailersin the U.S. on an annual basis. The 2020 list equaled $3.3 trillion in combined revenue. WMT came in at the top spot with $523.96 billion, equivalent to 16.39% of the top 100's combined revenue. AMZN was the runner-up in second place with $250.5 billion of revenue, accounting for 7.8% of the entire top 100. Going strictly by the numbers, I am not seeing how AMZN could be considered a monopoly as there are many competitors, and AMZN does not have a controlling interest in the sector.\n\n(Source:AMZN)\nCould you consider AMZN a monopoly in shipping? I would say no, considering the United States Post Office, FedEx (FDX), UPS (UPS), and XPO Logistics (XPO) are all independent organizations that have not been put out of business by AMZN. In addition, companies such as WMT and TGT have enhanced their internal logistics to move products around the country quicker.\nHow about thecloud? Is AMZN a monopoly there? Going by the classification of a monopoly, I would have to say no; AMZN does not have a monopoly on cloud services. While they have the largest position with almost 1/3rd of the revenue, cloud infrastructure spending has increased QoQ sequentially since Q1 2018, and AMZN's market share has trended sideways. While AMZN's AWS revenue increases, their market share isn't, which means new business is also finding its way to companies such as MSFT, GOOGL, and Alibaba (BABA). Competition, provider options, and competitive pricing all occur in the cloud space as AMZN faces extensive competition from other tech giants with deep financial resources.\n\n(Source: Synergy Research Group)\n(Source: Canalys)\nWhat about AAPL? Could they be classified as a monopoly? This is a crazier theory than AMZN. There are three main hardware categories which include desktop, mobile, and tablets, where AAPL operates. AAPL has a 15.57% market share behind MSFT's 72.97% on a global stage fordesktop operating systems. Looking at theU.S.alone, AAPL has a 27.82% market share vs. 61.48% from MSFT. This stat will shock people as AAPL has 26.35% of theglobal mobile operating system market sharewith iOS through its phones while Android has more than 2/3rds with 72.83%. In theU.S.alone, AAPL does have 57.68% of the market share in mobile operating systems, followed by 42% from Android. Intablets, AAPL has 56.39% of the market compared to Androids 43.52% on a global scale, and the metrics are similar in theU.Sas AAPL has 57.74% of the market while Android has 42.17%.\nApple, Google, and Microsoft are global companies, and on a combined scale, 41.5% of theglobal operating systemsfall under Android, 30.57% with Microsoft, and 22.61% with Apple. In theU.S.alone, as its own segment, AAPL has 43.3% of the market while MSFT has 29.44% and GOOGL has 21.84%. Is this a monopoly? I wouldn't classify it as one. AAPL isn't price-fixing, and they certainly don't have an unfair advantage. Consumers have choices in the product offerings available to them, and there is healthy competition among AAPL, MSFT, and GOOGL. The consumer market is speaking loudly that their preference is AAPL in some categories and not others. If AAPL was to hike up their prices by 25% or 50%, consumers would still have other options and could choose to leave the AAPL environment. AAPL has stayed competitive in its pricing methodology over the years, and I can't see how they could be considered a monopoly.\n\n(Source: StatCounter)\nI am sick and tired of hearing the words antitrust, monopoly, monopolistic, Amazon, and Apple used in the same sentences. Newsflash, Amazon and Apple are not lawmaking bodies and didn't write a single law in the United States. The United States government defined, created, and established the rules. Amazon and Apple hired specialists in the respective fields of accounting and law to navigate and operate within the established rules. If Amazon or Apple committed any wrongdoing, there are countermeasures as the IRS and SEC would investigate and bring charges forward. I am not a lawyer, but I can't see how anyone could prove AMZN or AAPL is a monopoly. As a shareholder, I am not worried about AAPL or AMZN being broken up.\nConclusion\nThe first six months are over for 2021, and earnings season is a couple of weeks away. I believe AMZN and AAPL present golden opportunities as they are underperforming the S&P index and the other tech conglomerates, including GOOGL, FB, and MSFT. AMZN and AAPL are on track to deliver record years across many financial metrics, yet Mr. Market hasn't been excited. I believe too much emphasis has been placed on MEME stocks, while many headlines are written to generate clicks. AMZN is on track to generate more than $450 billion in revenue for 2021, increasing $63.94 billion (16.56%) while significantly enlarging its net income and shareholder equity. Without a shadow of a doubt, AAPL will exceed 2020's total net income and EPS once its Q3 numbers are posted, and Q4's results will leave people astonished. I think the narrative will change in the upcoming weeks, and shares of AAPL and AMZN will act like a coiled spring and break out to the upside.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":68,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":159255611,"gmtCreate":1624972020633,"gmtModify":1703849097144,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578561847510900","idStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","listText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","text":"[Smile]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/159255611","repostId":"2147868644","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2147868644","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1624969959,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2147868644?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-29 20:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"A big market transition is coming.

The stock is moving upwards after receiving an attractive rating from Bank of America. With institutional investors on its side once again, and a new EPA rating, investors stand to wonder where LCID stock will go. Hence, Lucid Motors price predictions are in high demand.</p>\n<p>It’s inarguable that Lucid is rallying in hopes of becoming the next&nbsp;<b>Tesla</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>TSLA</u></b>). But Tesla is vastly more storied, has more experience getting cars on the road, and it has a superstar CEO with massive ambitions for the market. However, that’s not to say it has perfect vehicles. The cars themselves are the most important part, and with Lucid’s newest EPA rating, it’s putting Tesla in the hot seat.</p>\n<p>As the company announced yesterday, the Environmental Protection Agency&nbsp;awarded the Lucid Air Dream Edition Range with a 520-mile range. That’s by far the longest range for an electric vehicle on a single charge. For reference, Tesla’s longest-range vehicle&nbsp;only offers about 412 mileson a single charge. Lucid is creating an obvious edge for itself.</p>\n<p>Lucid Motors Price Predictions Surge on Bank of America Rating</p>\n<p>Following this announcement, LCID stock is getting the benefit of a new Bank of America note. The analyst calls the brand a “combination of Ferrari and Tesla,” and is putting a hefty rating on LCID stock. The bullish price point of $30 is in and of itself inciting buying interest. In the early hours of today’s session, trading volume of LCID is over 40 million shares. Shares are increasing 10% on the news.</p>\n<p>What do analysts at large think of LCID stock? Is it built to last? Is $30 much too optimistic? Let’s take a look at some&nbsp;Lucid Motors price predictionsto get an idea of broader sentiment:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Of course, bringing in all of the news today is John Murphy’s price target out of Bank of America.

The stock is moving upwards after receiving an attractive rating from Bank of America. With institutional investors on its side once again, and a new EPA rating, investors stand to wonder where LCID stock will go. Hence, Lucid Motors price predictions are in high demand.\nIt’s inarguable that Lucid is rallying in hopes of becoming the next Tesla(NASDAQ:TSLA). But Tesla is vastly more storied, has more experience getting cars on the road, and it has a superstar CEO with massive ambitions for the market. However, that’s not to say it has perfect vehicles. The cars themselves are the most important part, and with Lucid’s newest EPA rating, it’s putting Tesla in the hot seat.\nAs the company announced yesterday, the Environmental Protection Agency awarded the Lucid Air Dream Edition Range with a 520-mile range. That’s by far the longest range for an electric vehicle on a single charge. For reference, Tesla’s longest-range vehicle only offers about 412 mileson a single charge. Lucid is creating an obvious edge for itself.\nLucid Motors Price Predictions Surge on Bank of America Rating\nFollowing this announcement, LCID stock is getting the benefit of a new Bank of America note. The analyst calls the brand a “combination of Ferrari and Tesla,” and is putting a hefty rating on LCID stock. The bullish price point of $30 is in and of itself inciting buying interest. In the early hours of today’s session, trading volume of LCID is over 40 million shares. Shares are increasing 10% on the news.\nWhat do analysts at large think of LCID stock? Is it built to last? Is $30 much too optimistic? Let’s take a look at some Lucid Motors price predictionsto get an idea of broader sentiment:\n\nOf course, bringing in all of the news today is John Murphy’s price target out of Bank of America. Murphy gives the stock a strong “buy” rating and a $30 price target.\nAlso bullish on LCID is Itay Michaeli, an analyst at Citigroup. Michaeli targets a price of $28 for LCID.\nAdam Jonas is a known bear on LCID stock. The Morgan Stanley analyst is has a “sell” rating on LCID, anticipating a drop in price down to $12.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":235,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":889167982,"gmtCreate":1631116013046,"gmtModify":1676530473572,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578561847510900","idStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","listText":"[Smile]&nbsp;","text":"[Smile]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/889167982","repostId":"1175171654","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1175171654","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1631093315,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1175171654?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-08 17:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"5 Stock Ideas From an Investor Who Predicted Tesla Would Rise to $1,000","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1175171654","media":"Barron's","summary":"Investors listen to what Gary Black has to say about Tesla.

But the investing veteran is more than just a <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-trick, or one-stock, pony.</p>\n<p>He has other picks for growth investors as well as a new actively managed ETF: The Future Fund (ticker: FFND), designed to capitalized on 10 megatrends he sees changing the world.</p>\n<p>That fund is only a couple of weeks old. Black has been at the investing game for about 30 years, starting as a research analyst at Bernstein in 1992.</p>\n<p>After Bernstein, Black moved to the buy-side with stints at <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GS\">Goldman Sachs</a> Asset Management, Janus and Aegon, among others. After a brief respite following Aegon, Black jumped into the world of actively managed ETFs.</p>\n<p>He sat down with Barron’s to talk about his new fund, his approach to investing and some of the stocks he’s invested in. An edited version of the conversation follows.</p>\n<p><b>Barron’s: </b>We probably have to start with Tesla (TSLA). How do you value Tesla stock?</p>\n<p><b>Black:</b> I take where I think global [car sales are] going to be in about five years, and I take the EV adoption–it will get to 25% by 2025. This is the big investment controversy on Tesla: As competitors enter the market, can it keep its roughly 25% EV share? If it can, I get about $32 or so of earnings in 2025. And if I even put a 50 multiple on it, which is pretty low given projected 55% average annual earnings growth. I get a $1,600 price. And that’s worth about $1,100 today.</p>\n<p><b>Market share is the big controversy? What about self-driving cars?</b></p>\n<p>Stop saying Tesla has valuation equal to $1,000 a share because of the EV business. And then another $1,000 because of robotaxis.</p>\n<p><b>Tesla robotaxis like Waymo won’t be a thing?</b></p>\n<p>I think you’re going to have commercial robotaxi. And you’re going to have consumer robotaxi.</p>\n<p>Tesla has a head start, but competitors, especially those from <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CAAS\">China</a>, are offering more expensive systems with vision, lidar, radar and HD mapping allowing them to close the gap. Everyone will get there eventually–which Elon has said. Tesla’s features will still let Tesla sell more Teslas.</p>\n<p><b>Why did you start the Future Fund ETF?</b></p>\n<p>Secular growth [is] its cornerstone. We’re looking to capitalize on 10 secular megatrends that are changing the world.</p>\n<p><b>What are they?</b></p>\n<p>They are: [1] 24/7 information and entertainment, [2] social networking, [3] mobility–working from anywhere–[4] e-commerce, [5] fintech innovation, [6] big data and security, [7] people living longer, [8] lifestyle betterment, [9] automation and [10] sustainability. Those are the 10.</p>\n<p>And so what we try to do is find companies that [have] the megatrends as tailwinds. No. 1, we’re looking for high growth, 20% revenue growth. We’re looking for unlevered brands, meaning, brands that are very successful in, say, one segment, and they bring them into other segments, or brands that are successful in one geography, and can go global.</p>\n<p>No. 2, we’re looking for investment controversy. We’re looking for something where there is a fight, and where investors don’t agree. And that’s what creates opportunity.</p>\n<p><b>What’s your research process like?</b></p>\n<p>We go out, and I talk. We talk to a lot of competitors. When I was an analyst, I used to do focus groups. For 2,000 bucks, you could get 10 people in a room, and ask them why they don’t like about Beyond Meat [BYND] versus Impossible [Foods]. We can usually find information that gives me a research edge to answer the controversy.</p>\n<p><b>And how do you build your portfolio?</b></p>\n<p>We want a portfolio that’s high conviction, meaning no more than about 40 names. The top 10 names are about 40% of the portfolio. So that’s high conviction to me.</p>\n<p>We think we have very strong buy and sell discipline. When we put something in the portfolio, we want it to have at least 2:1 risk-adjusted upside versus downside.</p>\n<p><b>What else do you like, besides Tesla?</b></p>\n<p>We have Google [parent <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOG\">Alphabet</a> ], which is changing the world. Google is a mega cap stock just like Tesla is. But we think You Tube is 24/7 information and entertainment. YouTube is way undervalued. They’re still monetizing [search]. It has good 15% to 20% revenue growth. At 22 times projected earnings, it’s still [an attractive] price to us.</p>\n<p>Another name we have is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CMG\">Chipotle Mexican Grill</a> [CMG]. It fits with this megatrend of eating healthy, staying fit. We call it lifestyle betterment. Their product innovation has been superb–they launched these rolled quesadillas, which are going to have monster 15% same-store sales comps for them in the third quarter. It’s a great stock for us. Not cheap. But it has high growth.</p>\n<p><b>How about a couple more?</b></p>\n<p>One of the names that’s controversial we own is Tencent [TCEHY]. It’s one of the largest Internet companies in the world. It has 1.2 billion WeChat users. We believe that Chinese regulatory fears are overdone. Tencent is now trading at about 25 times next year’s earnings. We view it as having probably 20% revenue growth for at least the next few years.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GNRC\">Generac</a> [GNRC] is another one. We’ll call it a climate change stock. Because climate change is happening, you have a lot of wildfires. You have a lot of weather patterns that aren’t normal. And in new homes today, one of the most common features that people are putting is a generator.</p>\n<p><b>Can Generac sales be disrupted by battery storage in homes?</b></p>\n<p>Battery and solar powered walls and roofs are still expensive–$40,000. A Generac system starts at $2,000.</p>\n<p><b>One more?</b></p>\n<p>Snap [SNAP] is another name. If you have kids, Snap is one of the [apps] everybody’s using. The ARPU [or average revenue per user] is $13 annually, up about 30% over a year ago. Active users will be up about 20% this year. Do you use Tik Tok?</p>\n<p><b>No.</b></p>\n<p>The biggest risk to Snap is something else comes along that the 18 to 25-year-old crowd wants to use that’s better. And Tik Tok is a disrupter to Snap. But I have kids in this age group, three of them, and they all use Snap.</p>\n<p>The monetization has just begun. The global expansion has just begun. I think you have got at least three or four years of [growth].</p>\n<p>Thanks, Gary.</p>","source":"lsy1610680873436","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>5 Stock Ideas From an Investor Who Predicted Tesla Would Rise to $1,000</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\">\n5 Stock Ideas From an Investor Who Predicted Tesla Would Rise to $1,000\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-08 17:28 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.barrons.com/articles/stock-ideas-gary-black-tesla-51631058814?mod=hp_LATEST><strong>Barron's</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Investors listen to what Gary Black has to say about Tesla.

During the late 1980s, nearly a third of the nation’s savings and loan associations failed, ending with a taxpayer bailout — in 2021 terms — of about $265 billion.</p>\n<p>In 1997-1998, financial crises in Asia and Russia led to the near meltdown of the largest hedge fund in the U.S. —Long-Term Capital Management(LTCM). Its reach and operating practices were such that Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said that when LTCM failed, “he had never seen anything in his lifetime that compared to the terror” he felt. LTCM was deemed “too big to fail,” and he engineered a bailout by 14 major U.S. financial institutions.</p>\n<p>Exactly a decade later, too much leverage by some of those very institutions, and the bursting of a U.S. real estate bubble, led to the near collapse of the U.S. financial system. Once again, big banks were deemed too big to fail and taxpayers came to the rescue.</p>\n<p>The trend? Every 10 years or so, and they all look different.&nbsp;Are we in the early stages of a new crisis now, with the blowup at the family office Archegos Capital Management LP?</p>\n<p>A family office, for the uninitiated, is a private wealth management vehicle for the ultra-wealthy. Here’s what I mean by ultra-wealthy: Consulting firm EY estimates there are some 10,000 family offices globally, but manage, says a separate estimate by market research firm Campden Research, nearly $6 trillion. That $6 trillion is likely far higher now given that it’s based on 2019 data.</p>\n<p><b>Unregulated money managers</b></p>\n<p>Here’s the potential danger. Family offices generally aren’t regulated. The 1940 Investment Advisers Act says firms with 15 clients or fewer don’t have to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission. What this means is that trillions of dollars are in play and no one can really say who’s running the money, what it’s invested in, how much leverage is being used, and what kind of counterparty risk may exist. (Counterparty risk is the probability that one party involved in a financial transaction could default on a contractual obligation to someone else.)</p>\n<p>This appears to be the case with Archegos. The firm bet heavily on certain Chinese stocks, including e-commerce player&nbsp;Vipshop Holdings&nbsp;Ltd.VIPS,-1.19%,U.S.-listed Chinese tutoring company&nbsp;GSX Techedu&nbsp;Inc.GSX,-10.63%and U.S. media companiesViacomCBS&nbsp;Inc.VIAC,-3.90%and&nbsp;Discovery&nbsp;Inc.DISCA,-3.86%,among others. Share prices have tumbled lately, sparking large sales — some $30 billion — by Archegos.</p>\n<p>The problem is that only about a third of that, or $10 billion, was its own money. We now know that Archegos worked with some of the biggest names on Wall Street, including&nbsp;Credit Suisse Group AGCS,+1.59%,UBS Group AGUBS,+1.01%,Goldman Sachs Group Inc.GS,-1.25%,&nbsp;Morgan StanleyMS,-0.28%,Deutsche Bank AGDB,+0.74%and Nomura Holdings Inc.&nbsp;NMR,+1.87%.</p>\n<p>But since family offices are largely allowed to operate unregulated, who’s to say how much money is really involved here and what the extent of market risk is? My colleague Mark DeCambre&nbsp;reported last week that Archegos’ true exposures to bad trades could actuallybe closer to $100 billion.</p>\n<p><b>Danger of counterparty risk</b></p>\n<p>This is where counterparty risk comes in. As Archegos’ bets went south, the above banks — looking at losses of their own — hit the firm with margin calls. Deutsche quickly dumped about $4 billion in holdings, while Goldman and Morgan Stanley are also said to have unwound their positions, perhaps limiting their downside.</p>\n<p>So is this a financial crisis? It doesn’t appear to be. Even so, the Securities and Exchange Commission has opened a preliminary investigation into Archegos and its founder, Bill Hwang.</p>\n<p>One peer, Tom Lee, the research chief of Fundstrat Global Advisors, calls Hwang one of the “top 10 of the best investment minds” he knows.</p>\n<p>But federal regulators may have a lesser opinion. In 2012, Hwang’s former hedge fund, Tiger Asia Management, pleaded guilty and paid more than $60 million in penalties after it was accused of trading on illegal tips about Chinese banks. The SEC banned Hwang from managing money on behalf of clients — essentially booting him from the hedge fund industry. So Hwang opened Archegos, and again, family offices aren’t generally aren’t regulated.</p>\n<p><b>Yellen on the case</b></p>\n<p>This issue is on Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen’s radar. She said last week that greater oversight of these private corners of the financial industry is needed. The Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC), which she oversees, has revived a task force to help agencies better “share data, identify risks and work to strengthen our financial system.”</p>\n<p>Most financial crises end up with American taxpayers getting stuck with the tab. Gains belong to the risk-takers. But losses — they belong to us. To paraphrase Abe Lincoln, family offices — a multi-trillion dollar industry largely allowed to operate in the shadows in a global financial system that is more intertwined than ever — are of the super-wealthy, by the super-wealthy and for the super-wealthy. And no one else.</p>\n<p>The Archegos collapse may or may not be the beginning of yet another financial crisis. But who’s to say what thousands of other family offices are doing with their trillions, and whether similar problems could blow up?</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Opinion: Financial crises get triggered about every 10 years — Archegos might be right on time</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nOpinion: Financial crises get triggered about every 10 years — Archegos might be right on time\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-06 09:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/financial-crises-happen-about-every-10-years-which-makes-the-archegos-meltdown-unnerving-11617634942?mod=home-page><strong>marketwatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>No one, for now, can say for sure that the so-called family office’s billions in investment losses won’t spread.\n\nFinancial crises are never quite the same.

Once again, big banks were deemed too big to fail and taxpayers came to the rescue.\nThe trend? Every 10 years or so, and they all look different. Are we in the early stages of a new crisis now, with the blowup at the family office Archegos Capital Management LP?\nA family office, for the uninitiated, is a private wealth management vehicle for the ultra-wealthy. Here’s what I mean by ultra-wealthy: Consulting firm EY estimates there are some 10,000 family offices globally, but manage, says a separate estimate by market research firm Campden Research, nearly $6 trillion. That $6 trillion is likely far higher now given that it’s based on 2019 data.\nUnregulated money managers\nHere’s the potential danger. Family offices generally aren’t regulated. The 1940 Investment Advisers Act says firms with 15 clients or fewer don’t have to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission. What this means is that trillions of dollars are in play and no one can really say who’s running the money, what it’s invested in, how much leverage is being used, and what kind of counterparty risk may exist. (Counterparty risk is the probability that one party involved in a financial transaction could default on a contractual obligation to someone else.)\nThis appears to be the case with Archegos. The firm bet heavily on certain Chinese stocks, including e-commerce player Vipshop Holdings Ltd.VIPS,-1.19%,U.S.-listed Chinese tutoring company GSX Techedu Inc.GSX,-10.63%and U.S. media companiesViacomCBS Inc.VIAC,-3.90%and Discovery Inc.DISCA,-3.86%,among others. Share prices have tumbled lately, sparking large sales — some $30 billion — by Archegos.\nThe problem is that only about a third of that, or $10 billion, was its own money. We now know that Archegos worked with some of the biggest names on Wall Street, including Credit Suisse Group AGCS,+1.59%,UBS Group AGUBS,+1.01%,Goldman Sachs Group Inc.GS,-1.25%, Morgan StanleyMS,-0.28%,Deutsche Bank AGDB,+0.74%and Nomura Holdings Inc. NMR,+1.87%.\nBut since family offices are largely allowed to operate unregulated, who’s to say how much money is really involved here and what the extent of market risk is? My colleague Mark DeCambre reported last week that Archegos’ true exposures to bad trades could actuallybe closer to $100 billion.\nDanger of counterparty risk\nThis is where counterparty risk comes in. As Archegos’ bets went south, the above banks — looking at losses of their own — hit the firm with margin calls. Deutsche quickly dumped about $4 billion in holdings, while Goldman and Morgan Stanley are also said to have unwound their positions, perhaps limiting their downside.\nSo is this a financial crisis? It doesn’t appear to be. Even so, the Securities and Exchange Commission has opened a preliminary investigation into Archegos and its founder, Bill Hwang.\nOne peer, Tom Lee, the research chief of Fundstrat Global Advisors, calls Hwang one of the “top 10 of the best investment minds” he knows.\nBut federal regulators may have a lesser opinion. In 2012, Hwang’s former hedge fund, Tiger Asia Management, pleaded guilty and paid more than $60 million in penalties after it was accused of trading on illegal tips about Chinese banks. The SEC banned Hwang from managing money on behalf of clients — essentially booting him from the hedge fund industry. So Hwang opened Archegos, and again, family offices aren’t generally aren’t regulated.\nYellen on the case\nThis issue is on Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen’s radar. She said last week that greater oversight of these private corners of the financial industry is needed. The Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC), which she oversees, has revived a task force to help agencies better “share data, identify risks and work to strengthen our financial system.”\nMost financial crises end up with American taxpayers getting stuck with the tab. Gains belong to the risk-takers. But losses — they belong to us. To paraphrase Abe Lincoln, family offices — a multi-trillion dollar industry largely allowed to operate in the shadows in a global financial system that is more intertwined than ever — are of the super-wealthy, by the super-wealthy and for the super-wealthy. And no one else.\nThe Archegos collapse may or may not be the beginning of yet another financial crisis. But who’s to say what thousands of other family offices are doing with their trillions, and whether similar problems could blow up?","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":14,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":340318332,"gmtCreate":1617338594926,"gmtModify":1704698977783,"author":{"id":"3578561847510900","authorId":"3578561847510900","name":"GoodnRich","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578561847510900","idStr":"3578561847510900"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great!","listText":"Great!","text":"Great!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/340318332","repostId":"1159361065","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1159361065","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1617332969,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1159361065?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-02 11:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"My 36 Stock $338K Portfolio: Back Into China","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1159361065","media":"seeking alpha","summary":"Summary\n\nSome major changes in my portfolio in March including an entrance back into a few China sto","content":"<p>Summary</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Some major changes in my portfolio in March including an entrance back into a few China stocks, some new Healthcare picks, and a new large financial SPAC position.</li>\n <li>I also sold off some of my more defensive value positions during the last rotation to add to some of my key tech positions including Apple.</li>\n <li>A portfolio built for individual investors to outperform the majority of money managers through diversity and risk with the goal to be worth millions in retirement.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2e294fb94acf2a7afdc72d4a5a19699c\" tg-width=\"768\" tg-height=\"512\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Photo by Darren415/iStock via Getty Images</p>\n<p>It is my firm belief that 80% of money managers can't outperform the S&amp;P 500 index over time due primarily to the fees they charge their clients.

Apple (AAPL) should be considered as a potential cornerstone piece to any portfolio as one of the world's largest and most profitable companies that prints money almost faster than the Fed. I used the latest rotation from high growth to value in the market in March to add to my stockpile of Apple as the stock hasn't noticeably appreciated in the last 6 months. I hope to keep adding some shares monthly as I think it is a great value at this time and a long-term winner.</p>\n<p>2. QUALCOMM (QCOM) is a major technology solutions provider for companies like Apple and will be an integral part of upcoming transformational secular revolutions like 5G. It's currently my 8th largest individual position with no plans to ever sell currently.</p>\n<p>3. Xilinx (XLNX) is being acquired by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) in a$35B all-stock transactionhopefully before the end of 2021. I love the built-in arbitrage of all-stock transactions like this for tremendous companies like AMD and didn't mind selling my AMD in 2020 to buy Xilinx. I boosted my shares in Xilinx by a noticeable amount in March after its latest pullback. After this latest add not sure if I will get to add more shares before the end of the year when the AMD deal is close to finishing.</p>\n<p>4. Dell (DELL) is a legacy holding which continues to aggressively grow through value acquisitions like the$67B EMC dealand the future potential full acquisition of the hybrid cloud giant VMware (NYSE:VMW) which it owns ~80% of. Michael Dell is a shareholder winner through and through and following in his stock footpaths I think is a good long-term decision.</p>\n<p>5. Roblox (RBLX) is a teen gaming platform that came public through a direct listing in March of 2021. My hope was that it does not come out of the gate as hot as earlier IPOs DoorDash (DASH) and Airbnb (ABNB), which were too expensive for investing in for me personally when they premiered. I was very happy to get in at the IPO price of $64 a share for a large holding which I might add to in the coming months if it continues to linger around the IPO price or lower. I always try to have an eye on what younger generations are loving and this platform is expanding and growing phenomenally.</p>\n<p><b>Sold:</b>Sold my Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT)stock as it was a small position and I wanted to add to my Apple shares as a core holding.</p>\n<p><b>The Health Care Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)</b></p>\n<table>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>Stock</p></td>\n   <td><p>$30K</p></td>\n   <td><p>$300K</p></td>\n   <td><p>$3M</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$ARWR</p></td>\n   <td><p>$1,520</p></td>\n   <td><p>$15,200</p></td>\n   <td><p>$152,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$MDT</p></td>\n   <td><p>$460</p></td>\n   <td><p>$4,600</p></td>\n   <td><p>$46,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$MDXG</p></td>\n   <td><p>$1,720</p></td>\n   <td><p>$17,200</p></td>\n   <td><p>$172,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$LLY</p></td>\n   <td><p>$460</p></td>\n   <td><p>$4,600</p></td>\n   <td><p>$46,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$PFE</p></td>\n   <td><p>$300</p></td>\n   <td><p>$3,000</p></td>\n   <td><p>$30,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$MNKD</p></td>\n   <td><p>$110</p></td>\n   <td><p>$1,100</p></td>\n   <td><p>$11,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>$SMMT</p></td>\n   <td><p>$290</p></td>\n   <td><p>$2,900</p></td>\n   <td><p>$29,000</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td><p>% Portfolio</p></td>\n   <td><p>19.9%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>6. Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals (ARWR) is my 4th largest individual stock position as an RNAi juggernaut entering key Phase 3 trials in 2021. A lovely balance sheet with key partnerships with Janssen (JNJ) and Amgen (AMGN) significantly de-risk its TRiM platform as it continues to expand into additional cell types. It has had a nice consolidation around $80 for a bit now so hopefully some good news will be all it needs to reach for that $100 handle.</p>\n<p>7. Medtronic (MDT) Health Care device maker that I think has significant upside from COVID-19 issues for years to come. Hospitals will need the best equipment companies like Medtronic provide as health issues from Covid-19 could persist for years.</p>\n<p>8. MiMedx (MDXG) was my largest individual stock position for a good portion of 2020 as the company made momentous strides in getting its financials back in order and re-listed on the NASDAQ. I trimmed this position after re-listing as its potentially game-changing knee osteoarthritis data comes out later in 2021. I hope to slowly add back to this position in 2021.</p>\n<p>9. Eli Lilly (LLY) is a favored legacy holding that I hope to slowly add to over time and never sell. Some amazing drugs and a pipeline of potential game changing candidates can give this company real zip when good data hits.</p>\n<p>10. Pfizer (PFE) A healthcare behemoth with a big stake in the fight against COVID-19. It seems like a great deal at current prices after its pullback from recent highs to start the year warranting me starting a new position in the company in late February.</p>\n<p>11. MannKind(NASDAQ:MNKD)Is a former legacy holding that I decided to jump back into after its recent$200M capital raisealong with its collaboration with United Therapeutics.</p>\n<p>12. Summit Therapeutics (SMMT) is also a former holding of mine that I sold after I had about tripled my money in. I love the CDC?

Bitcoin (GBTC) soared over the back part of 2020 and rallied even more to start 2021 by reaching new all-time highs. Even after the most recent significant pullback, it is still my largest individual stock position as institutions continue to take a greater interest in it. As world banks and the Fed continue to print money like it's going out of style due to COVID-19, alternate money sources like Bitcoin could easily continue to see outsized gains in my opinion. EvenElon Musk likes it. Its pullback to end the month is one of the main reasons for my underperformance to the S&amp;P 500 this month. Still absolutely love it though as my top investment.</p>\n<p>19. HSBC Bank (HSBC) is a legacy holding that might finally see some upside if the United Kingdom can ever get Brexit resolved.

Each and every individual person intent on having the happiest retirement possible could and should take charge of their retirement portfolios and invest in simple index/mutual funds and/or a balanced portfolio like the one I have set up to maximize returns over decades of performance.\nContributions:\nDuring the month of January, my retirement portfolio had $2,100 in contributions added to it. In February, my spouse and I contributed $12,000 to our IRA portfolios for 2020 with the goal to do another $12,000 in IRA contributions for 2021 later on this year. March had no meaningful retirement contributions for stocks or Mutual Funds. Here is how my portfolio performed compared to the SPDR S&P 500 Trust (SPY) over the beginning of 2021. The rotation to value ended up smashing my portfolio for the month but I am in great position for a rebound if that trend ends as I loaded up on unloved growth stocks and tech names.\n\n\n\nFund\nSPY\nWelsh\nWelsh Minus Contributions\n\n\n% Gain Jan 2021\n-1.02%\n2.85%\n2.2%\n\n\n% Gain Feb 2021\n2.84%\n2.59%\n-1.1%\n\n\n% Gain Mar 2021\n4.16%\n1.53%\n1.53%\n\n\nYTD GAINS\n5.96%\n7.12%\n2.66%\n\n\n\nRegular contributions to your retirement portfolio help your portfolio to grow even on less than ideal months where you fail to outperform the S&P 500. Not every month will be a winner, but regular contributions can help make anyone's performance look good over time.\nHere's how the SPY has tracked over the beginning of 2021.\nData byYCharts\nMy portfolio was divided up to start 2021 at around 73% stocks and around 27% mutual and index funds with the goal to increase stocks to over 80% of my portfolio over time. It is currently built with approximately 87% domestic stocks and 13% foreign stocks as I have added China stocks this month again to my portfolio. I have about 3% of my portfolio in bond mutual funds so that I know how they work and to have at least a little exposure to this sector over time. I plan to have bonds be a very small portion of my portfolio up to right around age 65. Diversification lifts my whole portfolio's returns over time, so finding the best stocks in every sector is a goal for me each and every year. Here are some of the main changes sincemy last portfolio article in February of 2021.\n\n\n\nWelsh Portfolio\nStocks\nIndex/Mutual Funds\nBonds\nDomestic\nInternational\n\n\nDecember 2020\n72%\n28%\n3%\n85%\n15%\n\n\nJanuary 2021\n73%\n27%\n2.6%\n87%\n13%\n\n\nFebruary 2021\n72%\n28%\n3%\n89%\n11%\n\n\nMarch 2021\n73%\n27%\n3%\n87%\n13%\n\n\n\nHere are the details of my personal ~$338k portfolio then, based on values of approximately $30k, $300k, and $3 million broken down by sectors with brief descriptions of each stock in each sector. The best thing about my portfolio setup is that it is scalable so that people interested in following a similar path can set up their portfolios to follow my path no matter how small or large their holdings are. With fee-free trading and the advent of fractional shares, investors are more capable than ever in setting up amazing portfolios even when starting from scratch.\nThe Welsh Portfolio 2021\nSource: Author\nThe Information Technology Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$AAPL\n$1,830\n$18,300\n$183,000\n\n\n$QCOM\n$820\n$8,200\n$82,000\n\n\n$XLNX\n$860\n$8,600\n$86,000\n\n\n$DELL\n$490\n$4,900\n$49,000\n\n\n$RBOX\n$480\n$4,800\n$48,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n18.3%\n\n\n\n1. Apple (AAPL) should be considered as a potential cornerstone piece to any portfolio as one of the world's largest and most profitable companies that prints money almost faster than the Fed. I used the latest rotation from high growth to value in the market in March to add to my stockpile of Apple as the stock hasn't noticeably appreciated in the last 6 months. I hope to keep adding some shares monthly as I think it is a great value at this time and a long-term winner.\n2. QUALCOMM (QCOM) is a major technology solutions provider for companies like Apple and will be an integral part of upcoming transformational secular revolutions like 5G. It's currently my 8th largest individual position with no plans to ever sell currently.\n3. Xilinx (XLNX) is being acquired by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) in a$35B all-stock transactionhopefully before the end of 2021. I love the built-in arbitrage of all-stock transactions like this for tremendous companies like AMD and didn't mind selling my AMD in 2020 to buy Xilinx. I boosted my shares in Xilinx by a noticeable amount in March after its latest pullback. After this latest add not sure if I will get to add more shares before the end of the year when the AMD deal is close to finishing.\n4. Dell (DELL) is a legacy holding which continues to aggressively grow through value acquisitions like the$67B EMC dealand the future potential full acquisition of the hybrid cloud giant VMware (NYSE:VMW) which it owns ~80% of. Michael Dell is a shareholder winner through and through and following in his stock footpaths I think is a good long-term decision.\n5. Roblox (RBLX) is a teen gaming platform that came public through a direct listing in March of 2021. My hope was that it does not come out of the gate as hot as earlier IPOs DoorDash (DASH) and Airbnb (ABNB), which were too expensive for investing in for me personally when they premiered. I was very happy to get in at the IPO price of $64 a share for a large holding which I might add to in the coming months if it continues to linger around the IPO price or lower. I always try to have an eye on what younger generations are loving and this platform is expanding and growing phenomenally.\nSold:Sold my Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT)stock as it was a small position and I wanted to add to my Apple shares as a core holding.\nThe Health Care Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$ARWR\n$1,520\n$15,200\n$152,000\n\n\n$MDT\n$460\n$4,600\n$46,000\n\n\n$MDXG\n$1,720\n$17,200\n$172,000\n\n\n$LLY\n$460\n$4,600\n$46,000\n\n\n$PFE\n$300\n$3,000\n$30,000\n\n\n$MNKD\n$110\n$1,100\n$11,000\n\n\n$SMMT\n$290\n$2,900\n$29,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n19.9%\n\n\n\n6. Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals (ARWR) is my 4th largest individual stock position as an RNAi juggernaut entering key Phase 3 trials in 2021. A lovely balance sheet with key partnerships with Janssen (JNJ) and Amgen (AMGN) significantly de-risk its TRiM platform as it continues to expand into additional cell types. It has had a nice consolidation around $80 for a bit now so hopefully some good news will be all it needs to reach for that $100 handle.\n7. Medtronic (MDT) Health Care device maker that I think has significant upside from COVID-19 issues for years to come. Hospitals will need the best equipment companies like Medtronic provide as health issues from Covid-19 could persist for years.\n8. MiMedx (MDXG) was my largest individual stock position for a good portion of 2020 as the company made momentous strides in getting its financials back in order and re-listed on the NASDAQ. I trimmed this position after re-listing as its potentially game-changing knee osteoarthritis data comes out later in 2021. I hope to slowly add back to this position in 2021.\n9. Eli Lilly (LLY) is a favored legacy holding that I hope to slowly add to over time and never sell. Some amazing drugs and a pipeline of potential game changing candidates can give this company real zip when good data hits.\n10. Pfizer (PFE) A healthcare behemoth with a big stake in the fight against COVID-19. It seems like a great deal at current prices after its pullback from recent highs to start the year warranting me starting a new position in the company in late February.\n11. MannKind(NASDAQ:MNKD)Is a former legacy holding that I decided to jump back into after its recent$200M capital raisealong with its collaboration with United Therapeutics.\n12. Summit Therapeutics (SMMT) is also a former holding of mine that I sold after I had about tripled my money in. I love the CDC? And gonorrhea candidates in the coming years along with the CEO and majority shareholders backing as a sub $500M company. I plan on doubling my current shares in April when itsrights offeringexpires.\nThe Communication Services Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$DIS\n$2,010\n$20,100\n$201,000\n\n\n$BIDU\n$540\n$5,400\n$54,000\n\n\n$TME\n$300\n$3,000\n$30,000\n\n\n$WWE\n$590\n$5,900\n$59,000\n\n\n$GOOGL\n$410\n$4,100\n$41,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n15.7%\n\n\n\n13. Disney (DIS) will crush Netflix (NFLX) over time as its streaming platform continues to grow by leaps and bounds. Forever stock for me as my 2nd largest individual stock holding while always looking to add cheap shares. Unfortunately, pullbacks have been few and far between meaning I might not be adding shares until the end of 2021.\n14. Baidu (BIDU) My main grab on re-entering the China space. The recent meltdown in stocks from the Hwang family office, Archegos Capital, means that stocks like Baidu are trading at a tremendous discount to where they were just a couple months ago with their fundamentals still intact.\n15. Tencent (TME) Another victim of Archegos Capital, Tencent is a leader in China's music entertainment industry which also initiated a $1B share repurchase buyback program after the crash of its shares.\n16. World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) is one of the few remaining live event media stocks growing globally, while always a potential takeover target from juggernauts like Disney. Plus, late at night, when finding a good streaming movie seems virtually impossible, putting on a mindless WWE match serves as a great way to end the day for me at least.\n17. Alphabet (GOOGL) One of the latest adds to my portfolio from the infamous FANG names which will most likely land in the never sell category. I prefer it currently over the likes of Facebook (FB) due to privacy issues but that might just be a transitory feeling.\nSold:Sold my AT&T (T) as I sold a lot of defensive names to take advantage of the sell off of quality technology stocks.\nThe Financial Sector (Aim = 15% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$GBTC\n$2,450\n$24,500\n$245,000\n\n\n$HSBC\n$210\n$2,100\n$21,000\n\n\n$RPLA\n$1,280\n$12,800\n$128,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n16.1%\n\n\n\n18. Bitcoin (GBTC) soared over the back part of 2020 and rallied even more to start 2021 by reaching new all-time highs. Even after the most recent significant pullback, it is still my largest individual stock position as institutions continue to take a greater interest in it. As world banks and the Fed continue to print money like it's going out of style due to COVID-19, alternate money sources like Bitcoin could easily continue to see outsized gains in my opinion. EvenElon Musk likes it. Its pullback to end the month is one of the main reasons for my underperformance to the S&P 500 this month. Still absolutely love it though as my top investment.\n19. HSBC Bank (HSBC) is a legacy holding that might finally see some upside if the United Kingdom can ever get Brexit resolved. That of course, might be a big if.\n20. Finance of America (RPLA) My new value SPAC that goes public on April 1st of 2021. I believe it has a lot of hidden value in the stock which hopefully will be realized upon going public or over its first couple of earnings reports. The goal is to make some nice quick profits in the name and then transfer back into companies like JPMorgan again.\nSold:Sold my stock in JPMorgan (JPM) and BlackRock (BLK) as I took a big position in Finance of America as a value SPAC that I hope to trade out of in the near future after it goes public or after its first earnings report or two.\nThe Consumer Discretionary Sector (Aim = 6% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$TSLA\n$330\n$3,300\n$33,000\n\n\n$TSCO\n$520\n$5,200\n$52,000\n\n\n$MELI\n$290\n$2,900\n$29,000\n\n\n$BABA\n$450\n$4,500\n$45,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n6.5%\n\n\n\n21. Tesla (TSLA) continues to dominate the world of online retail, cloud, and virtually anything else it expands into like no other company in history. Is on my current never-sell list with a small celebration every time I can add another share.\n22. Tractor Supply Company (TSCO) quietly continues to perform as one of the best companies in retail mostly immune to Amazon's dominance. Itsacquisition of Petsensemakes a lot of sense now, especially with the growth of everything pet in the wake of COVID-19.\n23. MercadoLibre (MELI) is Latin America's Amazon. One of the best international stocks in my portfolio that I really should add more to on pullbacks.\n24. Alibaba (BABA) A pillar of Chinese stocks so an obvious add here although it wasn't directly involved in the latest large market sell off. Also the reason I sold my Amazon stock.\nSold:Sold Amazon (AMZN) in order to get some exposure to China stocks including its Chinese counterpart Alibaba.\nThe Consumer Staples Sector (Aim = 6% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$PG\n$500\n$5,000\n$50,000\n\n\n$PEP\n$440\n$4,400\n$44,000\n\n\n$GIS\n$390\n$3,900\n$39,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n5.5%\n\n\n\n25. Procter & Gamble (PG) is a legacy holding that sports a decent growing dividend along with many best in class brands like Olay, Head & Shoulders, Dawn, and Charmin. Always nice to have some stalwarts for the upcoming recessions and depressions.\n26. PepsiCo (PEP) is a phenomenal drink company with brands like Pepsi-Cola, Gatorade, and Tropicana along with amazing growth in the snack category with Frito-Lay that, in my mind, sets it apart from competitors like Coke (KO).\n27. General Mills (GIS) is a legacy holding for me with a great dividend that experienced a huge turnaround during COVID-19 with its brands, including its$8B acquisition of Blue Buffaloin 2018. Its former debt concerns have mostly evaporated as it has shored up its balance sheet and continues to benefit from the stay-at-home movement.\nThe Industrials Sector (Aim = 6% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$J\n$870\n$8,700\n$87,000\n\n\n$SPCE\n$550\n$5,500\n$55,000\n\n\n$AXON\n$420\n$4,200\n$42,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n7.5%\n\n\n\n28. Jacobs Engineering (J) is a legacy holding I have loved for years. A long-time no-debt company that makes super-smart acquisitions now has low debt and has initiated a dividend which it should be able to grow nicely over the coming years. Its focus on carbon neutrality and diversity in its workforce makes it a prime target for the younger generation. It is currently my 10th largest holding in my retirement portfolio.\n29. Virgin Galactic (SPCE) is one of the premier ways to play future commercial space flight. With its next test launch scheduled for May this is a wait and see stock at this time.\n30. Axon (AXON) is the maker of Taser as well as the bodysuits, cameras, and cloud software for officers across the United States. Phenomenal gains in this stock recently as well to start 2021. So many great stocks, so little money :).\nSold:Sold my Global Ship Lease (GSL) as that trade played out for a small gain to invest back into beaten down tech names as well as Chinese stocks at the end of the month.\nThe Materials Sector (Aim = 6% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$CLF\n$480\n$4,800\n$48,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n2.0%\n\n\n\n31. Cleveland-Cliffs (CLF) is an Iron Range stock that acquiredAK Steelat the end of 2019 and, more recently, announced the acquisition of ArcelorMittal (NYSE:MT) in late 2020 in adeal valued at $3.3B. Cleveland-Cliffs is well on its way to becoming a fully integrated steelmaker with clout in the U.S. A bipartisan infrastructure bill later in the year could do wonders for the iron and steel markets, but that is all hypothetical at this point and time.\nSold:Sold my Barrick Gold (GOLD) stock as I am tired of taking the hits even with the phenomenal dividend. I'm looking to re-enter the stock in a couple months when hopefully the selling pressure eases.\nThe Energy Sector (Aim = 6% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30k\n$300k\n$3M\n\n\n$RDS/B\n$180\n$1,800\n$18,000\n\n\n$PBR\n$360\n$3,600\n$36,000\n\n\n$HAL\n$340\n$3,400\n$34,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n3.6%\n\n\n\n32. Royal Dutch Shell (RDS.B) is a leader in the oil industry with a dividend that management is looking to grow quickly after it slashed it earlier in 2020 due to COVID-19 concerns.\n33. Petrobras (PBR) is a Brazil-based oil play with lots of potential if it can get past its scandal-ridden past. Unfortunately, Brazil President Bolsonaro recently named General Joaquim Silva e Luna to replace current CEO Roberto Castello Branco resulting in a huge crisis of faith in the company in its latest scandal. Can only be uphill from here I keep telling myself.\n34. Halliburton (HAL) is a U.S.-based oil service company that dominates services in the North American market.\nThe Utility Sector (Aim = 5% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$NEE\n$490\n$4,900\n$49,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n2.0%\n\n\n\n35. NextEra Energy (NEE) is a top utility play with a tremendous dividend which are the main features I look for in the Utility sector. It got slashed with the move to add further risk to my portfolio.\nSold:Sold my Dominion (D) and Duke (DUK) stocks in a transfer from more defensive names to more growth orientated names like NextEra Energy (NEE) along with wanting to add to my tech names like Apple (AAPL) and Xilinx (XLNX).\nThe Real Estate Sector (Aim = 3% of my Stock holdings)\n\n\n\nStock\n$30K\n$300K\n$3M\n\n\n$AMT\n$730\n$7,300\n$73,000\n\n\n% Portfolio\n3.0%\n\n\n\n36. American Tower (AMT) is a premier U.S. cell phone tower company aggressively expanding globally across a few more continents. 5G evolution could be a lucrative tailwind for years to come. Can't think of a reason to add another real estate play so I just plan to keep adding to this holding over time.\nBonds (2% of my Stock holdings)\nThis asset class is currently satisfied by my mutual fund holdings.\nMy top 10 Holdings and Percentage of my Portfolio\n\n\n\nStock\nSector\n% Portfolio\n\n\nBitcoin\nFinancials\n7.2%\n\n\nDisney\nCommunication Services\n5.9%\n\n\nApple\nInfo Tech\n5.4%\n\n\nMiMedx\nHealth Care\n5.1%\n\n\nArrowhead\nHealth Care\n4.5%\n\n\nFinance of America\nFinancials\n3.8%\n\n\nJacobs Engineering\nIndustrials\n2.6%\n\n\nXilinx\nInfo Tech\n2.6%\n\n\nQUALCOMM\nInfo Tech\n2.4%\n\n\nAmerican Tower\nREIT\n2.2%\n\n\nTotal % of Portfolio\n~41.7%\n\n\n\nStaying diversified across all sectors of the economy while making larger bets on your favorite stocks is a great way not only to beat the market, but have fun doing it as well.
