They are looking for catalysts to break shares out of their recent funk.</p>\n<p>Tesla stock (ticker: TSLA) is down about 15% year to date and off about 50% from its January 52-week high of $900.40. Tesla has ceded leadership—from a stock perspective—back to traditional auto makers: General Motors (GM) and Ford Motor (F) shares are up 45% and 70% year to date, respectively.</p>\n<p>That performance is flummoxing Tesla bulls. “Let’s begin with a healthy dose of intellectual honesty on the starting point for the stock,” writes Morgan Stanley analyst&nbsp;Adam Jonas&nbsp;in a Monday evening report. He is a Tesla bull rating shares Buy. His price target for the stock is $900 a share, almost 50% higher than recent levels. “Even bulls should admit that the rise in the stock price during the second half of 2020, while perhaps deserved in principle, was packed into a&nbsp;highly concentrated&nbsp;time frame,” he writes.</p>\n<p>Tesla shares rose 227% in the second half of 2020, buoyed by strong earnings, strong deliveries, and the stock’s inclusion in the&nbsp;S&amp;P 500.</p>\n<p>“The stock had the better part of five years-worth of performance packed into about five month,” Jonas adds. He says his clients are now looking for the next big thing that can drive the stock forward again. His ideas include capacity expansion in Texas and Germany. After that, he predicts Tesla will open up five more plants between now and the middle of this decade.</p>\n<p>Jonas is also looking for Tesla to unveil another new vehicle model. By his estimation, Tesla covers only about 15% of the total addressable market for the auto industry with its Y, X, 3, and S models. Model expansion will be a positive. That isn’t on the near-term horizon, though the company is due to deliver its Cybertruck later in 2021.</p>\n<p>Canaccord analyst&nbsp;Jonathan Dorsheimer&nbsp;is looking in a different area for a catalyst: residential solar power. Part of the reason he is bullish is that “Tesla is creating an energy brand and an Apple-esque ecosystem of products with customer focused connectivity, seamlessly marrying car, solar, and back-up power,” he wrote in a report released Sunday.</p>\n<p>Dorsheimer is bullish, but feeling a little down lately. He still rates the stock Buy, but he cut his&nbsp;price target&nbsp;to $812 from $974 in his report. Among other things, he is disappointed by battery delays. Tesla is planning to use larger battery cells that promise better range, charge time, and costs. Those batteries aren’t available yet.</p>\n<p>Looking a little further back, Goldman Sachs analyst&nbsp;Mark Delaney&nbsp;was watching Tesla’s Model S Plaid delivery event last week. The Plaid can go zero to 60 miles per hour in less than two seconds. Delaney was impressed by the technology, but pointed out the Plaid, at roughly $130,000, is a niche vehicle. He is looking for 2021 deliveries to exceed expectations. Delaney is modeling 875,000 vehicles for Tesla in 2021.

They are looking for catalysts to break shares out of their recent funk.\nTesla stock (ticker: TSLA) is down about 15% year to date and off about 50% from its January 52-week high of $900.40. Tesla has ceded leadership—from a stock perspective—back to traditional auto makers: General Motors (GM) and Ford Motor (F) shares are up 45% and 70% year to date, respectively.\nThat performance is flummoxing Tesla bulls. “Let’s begin with a healthy dose of intellectual honesty on the starting point for the stock,” writes Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas in a Monday evening report. He is a Tesla bull rating shares Buy. His price target for the stock is $900 a share, almost 50% higher than recent levels. “Even bulls should admit that the rise in the stock price during the second half of 2020, while perhaps deserved in principle, was packed into a highly concentrated time frame,” he writes.\nTesla shares rose 227% in the second half of 2020, buoyed by strong earnings, strong deliveries, and the stock’s inclusion in the S&P 500.\n“The stock had the better part of five years-worth of performance packed into about five month,” Jonas adds. He says his clients are now looking for the next big thing that can drive the stock forward again. His ideas include capacity expansion in Texas and Germany. After that, he predicts Tesla will open up five more plants between now and the middle of this decade.\nJonas is also looking for Tesla to unveil another new vehicle model. By his estimation, Tesla covers only about 15% of the total addressable market for the auto industry with its Y, X, 3, and S models. Model expansion will be a positive. That isn’t on the near-term horizon, though the company is due to deliver its Cybertruck later in 2021.\nCanaccord analyst Jonathan Dorsheimer is looking in a different area for a catalyst: residential solar power. Part of the reason he is bullish is that “Tesla is creating an energy brand and an Apple-esque ecosystem of products with customer focused connectivity, seamlessly marrying car, solar, and back-up power,” he wrote in a report released Sunday.\nDorsheimer is bullish, but feeling a little down lately. He still rates the stock Buy, but he cut his price target to $812 from $974 in his report. Among other things, he is disappointed by battery delays. Tesla is planning to use larger battery cells that promise better range, charge time, and costs. Those batteries aren’t available yet.\nLooking a little further back, Goldman Sachs analyst Mark Delaney was watching Tesla’s Model S Plaid delivery event last week. The Plaid can go zero to 60 miles per hour in less than two seconds. Delaney was impressed by the technology, but pointed out the Plaid, at roughly $130,000, is a niche vehicle. He is looking for 2021 deliveries to exceed expectations. Delaney is modeling 875,000 vehicles for Tesla in 2021. The Wall Street consensus number is closer to 825,000.\nDelaney rates shares Buy and has an $860 price target.\nNew production ramping up, strong deliveries, and a growing solar business is what these three will watch for in coming months. If all goes well, those catalysts should be enough to drive Tesla stock higher, as long as there is no bad news in the meantime.\nTesla stock was down 3% to $599.36 on Tuesday, and down slightly for the week.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":341,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169904080,"gmtCreate":1623811101540,"gmtModify":1703820204174,"author":{"id":"3579233841001861","authorId":"3579233841001861","name":"HavoHej","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579233841001861","authorIdStr":"3579233841001861"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Will like it for dividend","listText":"Will like it for dividend","text":"Will like it for dividend","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169904080","repostId":"1104356504","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1104356504","pubTimestamp":1623810135,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1104356504?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 10:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Could Amazon Stock Become A Dividend Payer Soon?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1104356504","media":"TheStreet","summary":"Amazon stock does not currently offer investors dividend payments, but could it?

Details are scarce.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1fe75742d59fda839891208141dc5233\" tg-width=\"1024\" tg-height=\"576\"><span>Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com</span></p>\n<p>The future of battery technology is a slender sheet of ceramic material that’s pliable enough to bend between two fingers.<b>QuantumScape</b>(NYSE:<b><u>QS</u></b>) claims to have the secret recipe for anext-generation battery that can boost the range of an electric car by as much as 50% and reduce charging time to less than 15 minutes. It has been tight-lipped about<i>how</i>. And while QuantumScape is a company with fewer than 250 employees making a non-commercial technology that hasn’t made it into a single electric vehicle (EV), it’s valued at an eye-opening $11 billion. That’s<i>after</i>QS stock fell almost 80% from a high of $130 last December.</p>\n<p>Can anyone really make a solid state battery? If so, when? And with QuantumScape stock down to a more reasonable valuation, is now the time to buy?</p>\n<p>Here’s a closer look.</p>\n<p><b>QS Stock and the Art of EV Alchemy</b></p>\n<p>Founded by Stanford University scientists a decade ago, and backed by&nbsp;<b>Volkswagen AG</b>(OTCMKTS:<b><u>VWAGY</u></b>),<b>Microsoft</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>MSFT</u></b>) and Bill Gates himself,QuantumScape became a public company last November after merging with Kensington Capital Acquisition Corp. Kensington Capital is a SPAC (special-purpose acquisition company).</p>\n<p>QS was backed by promising data, but has no commercial product and zero revenue. It’s easy to understand investors’ fanatical interest in EV battery technology. After all,EVs are one of the few products whose adoption is limited by battery performance.The promise of new solid-state batteries is alluring: faster charging, better energy-storage capacity and longer life.</p>\n<p>If batteries could deliver these benefits, EVs could take more market share, faster, from cars with internal combustion engines.</p>\n<p>Fueled by magical thinking, QuantumScape’s valuation skyrocketed from $3.3 billion when the deal was announced in September to over $33 billion only a month after its public debut. The shift was so dramatic that it&nbsp;briefly surpassed<b>&nbsp;Ford</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>F</u></b>). Just to give you some perspective on the insanity, Ford sold more than half a million cars and trucks in the U.S. in that same quarter.</p>\n<p>But QS stock didn’t spend much time in the stratosphere. Following an&nbsp;April short report by activist firm Scorpion Capital, which called the company a “scam,”QuantumScape stock fell back down to earth. Shares now trade around $28 — down 80% from their peak.</p>\n<p><b>Welcome to the SPAC Jungle</b></p>\n<p>In many ways, the QuantumScape story is nothing new. It’s seemingly just one of a handful of crash-and-burn SPAC IPOs in an overheated electric vehicle sector.</p>\n<p>Until last year, going public before delivering a purchasable product was pretty unusual in the automotive world.But no longer. Today, the EV space is rampant with pre-revenue upstarts trading at head-scratchingvaluations, ranging from carmakers&nbsp;<b>Lucid Motors</b>,<b>Nikola</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>NKLA</u></b>) and&nbsp;<b>Fisker</b>(NYSE:<b><u>FSKR</u></b>), to name a few. QuantumScape is also just one of a slew of overpromising, under-delivering SPACs to meet their (market) maker.</p>\n<p>For example, EV truck-maker&nbsp;<b>Lordstown Motors</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>RIDE</u></b>) imploded earlier this week, and Nikola and&nbsp;<b>Canoo</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>GOEV</u></b>) have both been targeted by short sellers. Oh, and don’t forget the extra salt in the fresh wound here — the Securities and Exchanges Commission is currentlyinvestigating RIDE and NKLA.</p>\n<p>The SPAC jungle is about as far from Paradise City as you can get.</p>\n<p><b>But… If It’s Real, It’s Revolutionary</b></p>\n<p>However, there is one way QuantumScape may stand apart from the quickly expanding graveyard of failed EV startups. If Chief Executive Officer Jagdeep Singh’s team of scientists have succeededwith their revolutionary design, they will have pulled off an astronomical feat.</p>\n<p>Today’s batteries generally have liquid electrolytes — the medium that allows the charge to travel between a cathode and anode. Typically, the electrodes are solid graphite. But QuantumScapeclaims to have developed a proprietary material that it can use to make solid-state batteries that will replace the current carbon or silicon anodes with lithium-metal anodes. In other words, these “solid-state” batteries are more energy-dense. They can provide a much longer range without the need to recharge. They can recharge faster compared to the current batteries. And, in theory, they have significantly lower production costs.</p>\n<p>Several battery startups, includingIonic Materials,Sila Nanotechnologies,Sion PowerandSolid Power, are developing all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). Each of these are expected to be safer and more energy-dense than the lithium-ion products used in today’s EVs and battery systems.

Details are scarce.\nSource: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com\nThe future of battery technology is a slender sheet of ceramic material that’s pliable enough to bend between two fingers.QuantumScape(NYSE:QS) claims to have the secret recipe for anext-generation battery that can boost the range of an electric car by as much as 50% and reduce charging time to less than 15 minutes. It has been tight-lipped abouthow. And while QuantumScape is a company with fewer than 250 employees making a non-commercial technology that hasn’t made it into a single electric vehicle (EV), it’s valued at an eye-opening $11 billion. That’safterQS stock fell almost 80% from a high of $130 last December.\nCan anyone really make a solid state battery? If so, when? And with QuantumScape stock down to a more reasonable valuation, is now the time to buy?\nHere’s a closer look.\nQS Stock and the Art of EV Alchemy\nFounded by Stanford University scientists a decade ago, and backed by Volkswagen AG(OTCMKTS:VWAGY),Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT) and Bill Gates himself,QuantumScape became a public company last November after merging with Kensington Capital Acquisition Corp. Kensington Capital is a SPAC (special-purpose acquisition company).\nQS was backed by promising data, but has no commercial product and zero revenue. It’s easy to understand investors’ fanatical interest in EV battery technology. After all,EVs are one of the few products whose adoption is limited by battery performance.The promise of new solid-state batteries is alluring: faster charging, better energy-storage capacity and longer life.\nIf batteries could deliver these benefits, EVs could take more market share, faster, from cars with internal combustion engines.\nFueled by magical thinking, QuantumScape’s valuation skyrocketed from $3.3 billion when the deal was announced in September to over $33 billion only a month after its public debut. The shift was so dramatic that it briefly surpassed Ford (NYSE:F). Just to give you some perspective on the insanity, Ford sold more than half a million cars and trucks in the U.S. in that same quarter.\nBut QS stock didn’t spend much time in the stratosphere. Following an April short report by activist firm Scorpion Capital, which called the company a “scam,”QuantumScape stock fell back down to earth. Shares now trade around $28 — down 80% from their peak.\nWelcome to the SPAC Jungle\nIn many ways, the QuantumScape story is nothing new. It’s seemingly just one of a handful of crash-and-burn SPAC IPOs in an overheated electric vehicle sector.\nUntil last year, going public before delivering a purchasable product was pretty unusual in the automotive world.But no longer. Today, the EV space is rampant with pre-revenue upstarts trading at head-scratchingvaluations, ranging from carmakers Lucid Motors,Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA) and Fisker(NYSE:FSKR), to name a few. QuantumScape is also just one of a slew of overpromising, under-delivering SPACs to meet their (market) maker.\nFor example, EV truck-maker Lordstown Motors(NASDAQ:RIDE) imploded earlier this week, and Nikola and Canoo(NASDAQ:GOEV) have both been targeted by short sellers. Oh, and don’t forget the extra salt in the fresh wound here — the Securities and Exchanges Commission is currentlyinvestigating RIDE and NKLA.\nThe SPAC jungle is about as far from Paradise City as you can get.\nBut… If It’s Real, It’s Revolutionary\nHowever, there is one way QuantumScape may stand apart from the quickly expanding graveyard of failed EV startups. If Chief Executive Officer Jagdeep Singh’s team of scientists have succeededwith their revolutionary design, they will have pulled off an astronomical feat.\nToday’s batteries generally have liquid electrolytes — the medium that allows the charge to travel between a cathode and anode. Typically, the electrodes are solid graphite. But QuantumScapeclaims to have developed a proprietary material that it can use to make solid-state batteries that will replace the current carbon or silicon anodes with lithium-metal anodes. In other words, these “solid-state” batteries are more energy-dense. They can provide a much longer range without the need to recharge. They can recharge faster compared to the current batteries. And, in theory, they have significantly lower production costs.\nSeveral battery startups, includingIonic Materials,Sila Nanotechnologies,Sion PowerandSolid Power, are developing all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). Each of these are expected to be safer and more energy-dense than the lithium-ion products used in today’s EVs and battery systems. Yet, QuantumScape has been the center of attention since the speculation that Apple(NASDAQ:AAPL) could team with Volkswagen to build the Apple iCar.For context,Volkswagen owns 13% of QuantumScape.\nIf the two companies team up, QS could become the company’s go-to EV battery supplier.\nQuantumScape Endures a Scorpion’s Sting\nQuantumScape tells a compelling story. The trouble is that secrecy runs high in the battery industry. That means there’s very little data to substantiate the company’s claims.\nTo be fair, QuantumScape’s batteries (like those of its peers) have only been tested in labs so far. And because there’s no independent verification of claims,industry-wide comparisons are virtually impossible.In fact, QuantumScape even required a photographer to use a color-shifting filter before capturing images of its technology, just in case the material’s true hue revealed any part of its secret recipe.\nThis combination of hype and mystery is catnip for short sellers. So whenScorpion Capital issued its damaging report, the market took notice. Scion called QuantumScape’s test results“cherry-picked”and not industry standard. Essentially, Scorpion suggested that the technology really isn’t viable.\nIndeed, Quantum’s technology is still new and the company doesn’t expect tostart pilot production of its batteries until 2024.Volume sales aren’t expected until 2026 or 2027. Infive years, “the company expects to have a production capacity of 6 GWh (gigawatt hours), which would be enough to support around 60,000 vehicles.” And it might take a year from there to achieve positive EBITDA.\nHalf-Baked Tech\nInvestors hoping to get a sense of the viability of the technology will have to wait a few years. And, the company itself clearly has its work cut out for it.It’s a long haul to commercial production — including creating EV-sized batteries and scaling up manufacturing.\nThere are several other technical factors that the company needs to work on as well before its product is ready for use.

At today’s market capitalization of just under $11 billion, QS stock is trading at3.4x 2027 revenue.

That's because every crash or correction has eventually been put into the rearview mirror. In short, the stock market is a maker of millionaires.</p>\n<p>But to become a millionaire -- or better yet a multimillionaire -- you'll first need to buy and hold game-changing and innovative companies. The following five supercharged stocks all have the tangible and intangible attributes of companies that can make you a millionaire.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/143422e972067a40e53697240fb597a4\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"491\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Pinterest</h2>\n<p>Social media sites are mostly a dime a dozen, but up-and-comer <b>Pinterest</b> (NYSE:PINS) is proving to be something special. That's because unlike most social media destinations, its user growth hasn't hit a brick wall. In fact, after ending March with 478 million monthly active users (MAU), it's only a matter of time before Pinterest crosses the psychologically important 500-million-user threshold.</p>\n<p>Although U.S. MAUs generate considerably higher average revenue per user (ARPU) than international users, these ex.-U.S. users are Pinterest's key to sustainable double-digit growth throughout the decade. That's because it's going to be a lot easier for the company to double international ARPU multiple times in the 2020s than it'll be to double U.S. ARPU -- especially when greater than 90% of its user growth its outside of the U.S. to begin with.</p>\n<p>Pinterest's platform is also something of a dream come true for businesses. It's a platform where people willingly share the products, places, and services that interest them, which allows advertisers to effectively target their spending. As long as Pinterest can keep its users engaged, which has been accomplished of late by ramping up video usage, it shouldn't have any problem becoming a key e-commerce player.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/75c8c7cdfeae935529dbccbf6b0c507c\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"490\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Cresco Labs</h2>\n<p>Marijuana is projected to be <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the fastest-growing industries in North America this decade, and the U.S. is at the center of this growth. If a report from <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NFC.U\">New Frontier</a> Data is correct, sales growth will average 21% through 2025. That makes U.S. multistate operator <b>Cresco Labs</b> (OTC:CRLBF) a potential millionaire-maker.</p>\n<p>Like it peers, Cresco Labs has a burgeoning retail presence. Taking into account its recently closed purchase of Bluma Wellness and its pending acquisition of Cultivate in Massachusetts, it'll soon have three dozen operating dispensaries and approximately <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> dozen additional retail licenses in its back pocket. Quite a few of the states Cresco is targeting, such as Illinois, are limited license issuers. This means they have a preset number of retail licenses they'll issue in total. In other words, targeting limited-license states will ensure that Cresco can build up its brand without getting steamrolled by a larger player with deep pockets.</p>\n<p>What's even more impressive about Cresco Labs is the company's wholesale operations. Wholesale often gets a bad rap in the cannabis industry because it generates lower margins than the retail side of things. However, Cresco offers more than enough volume to offset any margin weakness. That's because it holds one of only a small number of cannabis distribution licenses in California, the largest pot market in the world. Being able to place its pot products into more than 575 dispensaries in the Golden State makes wholesale Cresco's greatest asset.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F630591%2Fsquare-card-terminal.png&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"520\"><span>Image source: Square.</span></p>\n<h2>Square</h2>\n<p>The War on Cash is alive and well, and fintech stock <b>Square</b> (NYSE:SQ) is leading the charge. Even with a $100 billion market cap, it could reasonably deliver a 500% to 1,000% return over the next decade.</p>\n<p>First and foremost, Square generates consistent growth from its foundational seller ecosystem. This is a segment that provides point-of-sale devices, analytics, loans, and other tools to help businesses succeed. In the seven years leading up to the pandemic, the seller ecosystem's gross payment volume (GPV) rose by an annual average of 49% to $106 billion. Since this is a merchant fee-based segment, the fact that a larger percentage of GPV is now coming from bigger businesses is a good sign for continued double-digit annual GPV growth.</p>\n<p>However, most folks are enamored with peer-to-peer digital payment platform Cash App -- and for good reason. Square announced that, in three years, Cash App's MAU count more than quintupled to 36 million. Moreover, the company is generating $41 in gross profit per new user and paying less than $5 to attract each new MAU. Those are millionaire-making margins. With Cash App giving Square the ability to generate revenue from merchant transactions, bank transfers, investments, and even <b>Bitcoin</b>&nbsp;exchange, the sky's the limit.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4d1c334ff649af837a64937769eca0be\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>EverQuote</h2>\n<p>Don't forget about small-cap stocks -- they can make you a millionaire, too. One fast-growing small-cap that finds itself in the perfect niche of a staple industry is <b>EverQuote</b> (NASDAQ:EVER).</p>\n<p>EverQuote operates an online insurance marketplace that allows consumers to compare policies. While insurance is a generally slow-growing (dare I say, boring?) industry, digital ad spending within the insurance industry is expanding quickly. Of the $16.7 billion in ad spending projected for 2021, $6.5 billion is digital spending. EverQuote solely operates in this digital ad space, which is expected to grow by an average annual rate of 16% through 2024.</p>\n<p>EverQuote's online marketplace is making the insurance buying and selling process so much more efficient. Consumers can do price-comparisons with the click of a button, while insurers can more effectively target their ad spend to motivated shoppers. Not surprisingly, 20% of all consumers who request a price comparison ultimately buy a policy through EverQuote's marketplace.</p>\n<p>As one final note, EverQuote has expanded beyond auto insurance into new verticals. These new verticals (home, rental, health, and life insurance) are growing at a considerably faster pace than its core auto insurance marketplace.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fd67a054d6a438fccebe948326a3d8a8\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Image source: Redfin.</span></p>\n<h2>Redfin</h2>\n<p>The fifth and final supercharged stock that can make you a millionaire is technology-driven real estate company <b>Redfin</b> (NASDAQ:RDFN).</p>\n<p>To cover the obvious, Redfin has absolutely benefited from historically low mortgage rates, which has fueled home buying and selling activity. But there's more to like here than just favorable external factors.</p>\n<p>For example, Redfin has differentiated itself in the cost-savings department. Redfin fully understands that it can woo its clients by saving them a boatload of money during the home purchase/selling process. That's because it charges a listing fee of between 1% and 1.5%, which is up to two percentage points lower than traditional real estate companies.

That's because every crash or correction has eventually been put into the rearview mirror. In short, the stock market is a maker of millionaires.\nBut to become a millionaire -- or better yet a multimillionaire -- you'll first need to buy and hold game-changing and innovative companies. The following five supercharged stocks all have the tangible and intangible attributes of companies that can make you a millionaire.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nPinterest\nSocial media sites are mostly a dime a dozen, but up-and-comer Pinterest (NYSE:PINS) is proving to be something special. That's because unlike most social media destinations, its user growth hasn't hit a brick wall. In fact, after ending March with 478 million monthly active users (MAU), it's only a matter of time before Pinterest crosses the psychologically important 500-million-user threshold.\nAlthough U.S. MAUs generate considerably higher average revenue per user (ARPU) than international users, these ex.-U.S. users are Pinterest's key to sustainable double-digit growth throughout the decade. That's because it's going to be a lot easier for the company to double international ARPU multiple times in the 2020s than it'll be to double U.S. ARPU -- especially when greater than 90% of its user growth its outside of the U.S. to begin with.\nPinterest's platform is also something of a dream come true for businesses. It's a platform where people willingly share the products, places, and services that interest them, which allows advertisers to effectively target their spending. As long as Pinterest can keep its users engaged, which has been accomplished of late by ramping up video usage, it shouldn't have any problem becoming a key e-commerce player.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nCresco Labs\nMarijuana is projected to be one of the fastest-growing industries in North America this decade, and the U.S. is at the center of this growth. If a report from New Frontier Data is correct, sales growth will average 21% through 2025. That makes U.S. multistate operator Cresco Labs (OTC:CRLBF) a potential millionaire-maker.\nLike it peers, Cresco Labs has a burgeoning retail presence. Taking into account its recently closed purchase of Bluma Wellness and its pending acquisition of Cultivate in Massachusetts, it'll soon have three dozen operating dispensaries and approximately one dozen additional retail licenses in its back pocket. Quite a few of the states Cresco is targeting, such as Illinois, are limited license issuers. This means they have a preset number of retail licenses they'll issue in total. In other words, targeting limited-license states will ensure that Cresco can build up its brand without getting steamrolled by a larger player with deep pockets.\nWhat's even more impressive about Cresco Labs is the company's wholesale operations. Wholesale often gets a bad rap in the cannabis industry because it generates lower margins than the retail side of things. However, Cresco offers more than enough volume to offset any margin weakness. That's because it holds one of only a small number of cannabis distribution licenses in California, the largest pot market in the world. Being able to place its pot products into more than 575 dispensaries in the Golden State makes wholesale Cresco's greatest asset.\nImage source: Square.\nSquare\nThe War on Cash is alive and well, and fintech stock Square (NYSE:SQ) is leading the charge. Even with a $100 billion market cap, it could reasonably deliver a 500% to 1,000% return over the next decade.\nFirst and foremost, Square generates consistent growth from its foundational seller ecosystem. This is a segment that provides point-of-sale devices, analytics, loans, and other tools to help businesses succeed. In the seven years leading up to the pandemic, the seller ecosystem's gross payment volume (GPV) rose by an annual average of 49% to $106 billion. Since this is a merchant fee-based segment, the fact that a larger percentage of GPV is now coming from bigger businesses is a good sign for continued double-digit annual GPV growth.\nHowever, most folks are enamored with peer-to-peer digital payment platform Cash App -- and for good reason. Square announced that, in three years, Cash App's MAU count more than quintupled to 36 million. Moreover, the company is generating $41 in gross profit per new user and paying less than $5 to attract each new MAU. Those are millionaire-making margins. With Cash App giving Square the ability to generate revenue from merchant transactions, bank transfers, investments, and even Bitcoin exchange, the sky's the limit.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nEverQuote\nDon't forget about small-cap stocks -- they can make you a millionaire, too. One fast-growing small-cap that finds itself in the perfect niche of a staple industry is EverQuote (NASDAQ:EVER).\nEverQuote operates an online insurance marketplace that allows consumers to compare policies. While insurance is a generally slow-growing (dare I say, boring?) industry, digital ad spending within the insurance industry is expanding quickly. Of the $16.7 billion in ad spending projected for 2021, $6.5 billion is digital spending. EverQuote solely operates in this digital ad space, which is expected to grow by an average annual rate of 16% through 2024.\nEverQuote's online marketplace is making the insurance buying and selling process so much more efficient. Consumers can do price-comparisons with the click of a button, while insurers can more effectively target their ad spend to motivated shoppers. Not surprisingly, 20% of all consumers who request a price comparison ultimately buy a policy through EverQuote's marketplace.\nAs one final note, EverQuote has expanded beyond auto insurance into new verticals. These new verticals (home, rental, health, and life insurance) are growing at a considerably faster pace than its core auto insurance marketplace.\nImage source: Redfin.\nRedfin\nThe fifth and final supercharged stock that can make you a millionaire is technology-driven real estate company Redfin (NASDAQ:RDFN).\nTo cover the obvious, Redfin has absolutely benefited from historically low mortgage rates, which has fueled home buying and selling activity. But there's more to like here than just favorable external factors.\nFor example, Redfin has differentiated itself in the cost-savings department. Redfin fully understands that it can woo its clients by saving them a boatload of money during the home purchase/selling process. That's because it charges a listing fee of between 1% and 1.5%, which is up to two percentage points lower than traditional real estate companies. Considering how quickly home prices are rising, the amount Redfin is saving buyers and sellers is growing almost daily.\nReal estate companies will also struggle to match the personalization that Redfin brings to the table. Its Concierge service helps with staging and upgrades to maximize the value of a home being sold. Meanwhile, RedfinNow allows the company to buy homes for cash, thereby removing the usual hassles and haggling that comes with selling a home.\nIt should be no surprise that Redfin's share of U.S. existing home sales has nearly tripled (0.44% to 1.14%) since the end of 2015.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":368,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169906020,"gmtCreate":1623811030260,"gmtModify":1703820201256,"author":{"id":"3579233841001861","authorId":"3579233841001861","name":"HavoHej","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579233841001861","authorIdStr":"3579233841001861"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Love dips","listText":"Love dips","text":"Love dips","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169906020","repostId":"2143680537","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2143680537","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1623797252,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143680537?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 06:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street ends down as data spooks investors awaiting Fed report","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143680537","media":"Reuters","summary":"Wall Street’s main indices closed lower on Tuesday as data showing stronger inflation and weaker U.S. retail sales in May spooked already-jittery investors awaiting the results of the Federal Reserve’s latest policy meeting.Assurance from the Fed that rising prices are transitory and falling U.S. Treasury yields have helped ease some concerns over inflation and supported U.S. stocks in recent weeks.

Right now, the Fed is probably in a position to show they are thinking about tapering, but they’re still a long way from actually doing it.”\nThe Fed is likely to announce in August or September a strategy for reducing its massive bond buying program, but will not start cutting monthly purchases until early next year, a Reuters poll of economists found.\nThe benchmark S&P 500, the blue-chip Dow Jones and the tech-focused Nasdaq have risen 13%, 12.1% and 9.2% respectively so far this year, largely driven by optimism about an economic reopening.\nHowever, the S&P 500 has been broadly stuck within a range, despite recording its 29th record-high finish of 2021 on Monday, versus 33 for all of last year.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 94.42 points, or 0.27%, to 34,299.33, the S&P 500 lost 8.56 points, or 0.20%, to 4,246.59 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 101.29 points, or 0.71%, to 14,072.86.\nSeven of the 11 major S&P sectors slipped. Among them was communication services, which ended 0.5% lower, having hit a record intraday high earlier in the session.\nThe largest gainer was the energy index, which rose 2.1% on oil prices hitting multi-year highs on a positive demand outlook. Exxon Mobil Corp had its best day since Mar. 5, jumping 3.6%. [O/R]\nIn corporate news, Boeing Co gained 0.6% after the United States and the European Union agreed on a truce in their 17-year conflict over aircraft subsidies involving the planemaker and its rival Airbus.\nHaving slumped 19% on Monday, Lordstown Motors Corp shares rebounded 11.3% after comments from the electric truck manufacturer’s president on orders.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 9.98 billion shares, compared with the 10.58 billion average over the last 20 trading days.\nThe S&P 500 posted 36 new 52-week highs and 1 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 87 new highs and 21 new lows.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":251,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160776986,"gmtCreate":1623807843345,"gmtModify":1703820051134,"author":{"id":"3579233841001861","authorId":"3579233841001861","name":"HavoHej","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579233841001861","authorIdStr":"3579233841001861"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and Comment","listText":"Like and Comment","text":"Like and Comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/160776986","repostId":"1179874077","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1179874077","pubTimestamp":1623807317,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1179874077?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 09:35","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Southeast Asia’s IPO market is ‘still hot’ — and Thailand appears to be leading the way","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1179874077","media":"CNBC","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nThailand’s IPO market appears “on track” for a record year in 2021, Dealogic’s Ken Fong ","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nThailand’s IPO market appears “on track” for a record year in 2021, Dealogic’s Ken Fong told CNBC.\nCovid-19 has ravaged through much of Southeast Asia as their respective governments ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/16/southeast-asias-ipo-market-is-still-hot-thailand-is-leading-the-way.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

It continues the good trend from last year,” said Fong, head of equity capital market research for Asia-Pacific at Dealogic.\nThe deals so far this year have totaled $2.92 billion in value, according to Dealogic data.\nWith no reason for the current trend to stop, Thailand’s IPO space now appears “on track to have a record year,” the analyst added.\nThe Southeast Asian country usually sees about 30 public listings each year, and data showed most usually come in the latter half of the year, he told CNBC in a call. “Roughly 70-80% of the activity comes from Q4 and Q3 every year.”\nSo far this year, Thailand has seen 14 listings — about half the annual level, Dealogic data showed. The amount raised by this year’s IPOs has already surpassed the annual full year average of $2.8 billion, according to Fong.\nElsewhere in the region, the Philippines has also seen a relatively strong performance in its IPO market, following the debut of food and beverage firm Monde Nissin — described by Fong as the “largest” public listing on record in the country.\nIn Malaysia and Singapore, however, the listing scene has been “rather quiet,” he added.\n‘Very high one-day pop’ for some IPOs\nCovid-19 has ravaged through much of Southeast Asia as their respective governments struggle to obtain sufficient vaccines to inoculate their citizens.\nBut the impact of the resurgence of the pandemic is “not really visible” in the IPO space, Fong said.\n“From our data I do not really see that Southeast Asia is too weak. We look at the aftermarket performance and actually most of the countries have a very high one-day pop,” he said referring to a strong debut on the first day.\nFong cited two IPOs in Thailand as examples.\nPTT Oil and Retail Business went public in February and gained about 62.5% on the first day of trading. Thai insurance broker Ngern Tid Lor also jumped about 25% from the IPO price on its debut day.\nBoth companies were among three that listed in Southeast Asia this year that have been valued at more than $1 billion each, he added.\nAt a time when the market is “still hot,” Fong said, “these mega IPOs just help encourage other ... companies to list.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":315,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":357197263,"gmtCreate":1617244093452,"gmtModify":1704697729072,"author":{"id":"3579233841001861","authorId":"3579233841001861","name":"HavoHej","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579233841001861","authorIdStr":"3579233841001861"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Amd against Intel!&nbsp;","listText":"Amd against Intel!&nbsp;","text":"Amd against Intel!","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4a99ebbfaf8f3c8594d3680ffb31a404","width":"1080","height":"2236"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/357197263","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":370,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":357194207,"gmtCreate":1617243998609,"gmtModify":1704697727938,"author":{"id":"3579233841001861","authorId":"3579233841001861","name":"HavoHej","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579233841001861","authorIdStr":"3579233841001861"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"LNS! :)&nbsp;","listText":"LNS! :)&nbsp;","text":"LNS! :)","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/357194207","repostId":"2124203752","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2124203752","pubTimestamp":1617242968,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2124203752?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-01 10:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"TSMC to Spend $100 Billion Over Three Years to Grow Capacity","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2124203752","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"(Bloomberg) -- Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. plans to spend $100 billion over the next thre","content":"<p>(Bloomberg) -- Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. plans to spend $100 billion over the next three years to expand its chip fabrication capacity, the company said Thursday.</p><p>TSMC, the world’s leading manufacturer of advanced semiconductors, already planned a record capital expenditure of as much as $28 billion this year, but recent trends and developments have pushed for even more capacity.

It continues the good trend from last year,” said Fong, head of equity capital market research for Asia-Pacific at Dealogic.\nThe deals so far this year have totaled $2.92 billion in value, according to Dealogic data.\nWith no reason for the current trend to stop, Thailand’s IPO space now appears “on track to have a record year,” the analyst added.\nThe Southeast Asian country usually sees about 30 public listings each year, and data showed most usually come in the latter half of the year, he told CNBC in a call. “Roughly 70-80% of the activity comes from Q4 and Q3 every year.”\nSo far this year, Thailand has seen 14 listings — about half the annual level, Dealogic data showed. The amount raised by this year’s IPOs has already surpassed the annual full year average of $2.8 billion, according to Fong.\nElsewhere in the region, the Philippines has also seen a relatively strong performance in its IPO market, following the debut of food and beverage firm Monde Nissin — described by Fong as the “largest” public listing on record in the country.\nIn Malaysia and Singapore, however, the listing scene has been “rather quiet,” he added.\n‘Very high one-day pop’ for some IPOs\nCovid-19 has ravaged through much of Southeast Asia as their respective governments struggle to obtain sufficient vaccines to inoculate their citizens.\nBut the impact of the resurgence of the pandemic is “not really visible” in the IPO space, Fong said.\n“From our data I do not really see that Southeast Asia is too weak. We look at the aftermarket performance and actually most of the countries have a very high one-day pop,” he said referring to a strong debut on the first day.\nFong cited two IPOs in Thailand as examples.\nPTT Oil and Retail Business went public in February and gained about 62.5% on the first day of trading. Thai insurance broker Ngern Tid Lor also jumped about 25% from the IPO price on its debut day.\nBoth companies were among three that listed in Southeast Asia this year that have been valued at more than $1 billion each, he added.\nAt a time when the market is “still hot,” Fong said, “these mega IPOs just help encourage other ... companies to list.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":315,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":357194207,"gmtCreate":1617243998609,"gmtModify":1704697727938,"author":{"id":"3579233841001861","authorId":"3579233841001861","name":"HavoHej","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579233841001861","authorIdStr":"3579233841001861"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"LNS! :)&nbsp;","listText":"LNS! :)&nbsp;","text":"LNS! :)","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/357194207","repostId":"2124203752","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2124203752","pubTimestamp":1617242968,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2124203752?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-01 10:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"TSMC to Spend $100 Billion Over Three Years to Grow Capacity","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2124203752","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"(Bloomberg) -- Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. plans to spend $100 billion over the next thre","content":"<p>(Bloomberg) -- Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. plans to spend $100 billion over the next three years to expand its chip fabrication capacity, the company said Thursday.</p><p>TSMC, the world’s leading manufacturer of advanced semiconductors, already planned a record capital expenditure of as much as $28 billion this year, but recent trends and developments have pushed for even more capacity.

That's because every crash or correction has eventually been put into the rearview mirror. In short, the stock market is a maker of millionaires.</p>\n<p>But to become a millionaire -- or better yet a multimillionaire -- you'll first need to buy and hold game-changing and innovative companies. The following five supercharged stocks all have the tangible and intangible attributes of companies that can make you a millionaire.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/143422e972067a40e53697240fb597a4\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"491\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Pinterest</h2>\n<p>Social media sites are mostly a dime a dozen, but up-and-comer <b>Pinterest</b> (NYSE:PINS) is proving to be something special. That's because unlike most social media destinations, its user growth hasn't hit a brick wall. In fact, after ending March with 478 million monthly active users (MAU), it's only a matter of time before Pinterest crosses the psychologically important 500-million-user threshold.</p>\n<p>Although U.S. MAUs generate considerably higher average revenue per user (ARPU) than international users, these ex.-U.S. users are Pinterest's key to sustainable double-digit growth throughout the decade. That's because it's going to be a lot easier for the company to double international ARPU multiple times in the 2020s than it'll be to double U.S. ARPU -- especially when greater than 90% of its user growth its outside of the U.S. to begin with.</p>\n<p>Pinterest's platform is also something of a dream come true for businesses. It's a platform where people willingly share the products, places, and services that interest them, which allows advertisers to effectively target their spending.

That's because every crash or correction has eventually been put into the rearview mirror. In short, the stock market is a maker of millionaires.\nBut to become a millionaire -- or better yet a multimillionaire -- you'll first need to buy and hold game-changing and innovative companies. The following five supercharged stocks all have the tangible and intangible attributes of companies that can make you a millionaire.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nPinterest\nSocial media sites are mostly a dime a dozen, but up-and-comer Pinterest (NYSE:PINS) is proving to be something special. That's because unlike most social media destinations, its user growth hasn't hit a brick wall. In fact, after ending March with 478 million monthly active users (MAU), it's only a matter of time before Pinterest crosses the psychologically important 500-million-user threshold.\nAlthough U.S. MAUs generate considerably higher average revenue per user (ARPU) than international users, these ex.-U.S. users are Pinterest's key to sustainable double-digit growth throughout the decade. That's because it's going to be a lot easier for the company to double international ARPU multiple times in the 2020s than it'll be to double U.S. ARPU -- especially when greater than 90% of its user growth its outside of the U.S. to begin with.\nPinterest's platform is also something of a dream come true for businesses. It's a platform where people willingly share the products, places, and services that interest them, which allows advertisers to effectively target their spending. As long as Pinterest can keep its users engaged, which has been accomplished of late by ramping up video usage, it shouldn't have any problem becoming a key e-commerce player.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nCresco Labs\nMarijuana is projected to be one of the fastest-growing industries in North America this decade, and the U.S. is at the center of this growth.

Last week, he gave an interview to CNBC and further elaborated on his decision.</p>\n<p>The Apple Maven takes a closer look at this bear’s journey from highly skeptical to timidly optimistic about Apple shares.</p>\n<p><b>iPhone at the center of the bear case</b></p>\n<p>At the core of Goldman Sachs’ sell rating on Apple stock was the Cupertino company's challenges at meeting iPhone sales growth metrics going forward. Rod Hall explained it:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “Apple continues to show strong execution, but we see fundamentals more likely to disappoint in 2021 as the long-anticipated 5G iPhone fails to meet optimistic consensus expectations and services revenue growth slows.”\n</blockquote>\n<p>To be fair, Apple’s most recent financial results had been far from exhilarating ahead of Goldman’s stock rating upgrade. The Cupertino company's main revenue generator, the iPhone, had produced timid results in 2020, making some wonder if smartphone sales would disappoint&nbsp;at the start of the 5G cycle.</p>\n<p>The plateauing in smartphone sales preceded the pandemic year. Based on data from third party-research companies Gartner and Strategy Analytics, 187 million iPhones were sold in 2019, fewer than the 217 million of 2018. And from 2019 to 2020, there was an unprecedented decrease in iPhone revenues: from $142 billion to $138 billion last year.</p>\n<p>Therefore, and based on recent trends, Rod Hall’s bearishness towards the iPhone seemed reasonably justifiable. What had been missing to tip Apple stock over, in the analyst’s view, was a negative catalyst. He believed that the COVID-19 pandemic could be it.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/89631d8083d43e0daee7828d45e7a67a\" tg-width=\"627\" tg-height=\"453\"><span>Figure 1: iPhone quarterly revenue ($bn).</span></p>\n<p><b>When Goldman Sachs fell off the horse</b></p>\n<p>Goldman’s rating change on AAPL came in April, after&nbsp;the Cupertino company crushed expectations&nbsp;and released a blowout earnings report. Fiscal second quarter 2021 marked a turning point in iPhone 12 sales, after Apple faced delays&nbsp;in the launch of the new device.</p>\n<p>Apple reported iPhone revenues of $47.9 billion versus Wall Street’s consensus $41.5 billion. Year-over-year, the top-line increase was a staggering $19 billion, representing growth of 65%.</p>\n<p>These numbers probably caught Goldman’s Rod Hall flat-footed.</p>\n<p><b>How Goldman Sachs sees Apple going forward</b></p>\n<p>According to Goldman, the neutral position on AAPL is justified by one key metric: revenues per user. The analyst believes that growth in this metric should be in line with U.S. GDP. He points out that Apple's revenues per user have remained static in recent years, only rising during the pandemic due to stay-at-home trends.</p>\n<p>On the bullish side of the argument, Rod Hall sees the importance of privacy, and thinks that Apple could benefit from increased demand for being an advocate of user data protection.

Last week, he gave an interview to CNBC and further elaborated on his decision.\nThe Apple Maven takes a closer look at this bear’s journey from highly skeptical to timidly optimistic about Apple shares.\niPhone at the center of the bear case\nAt the core of Goldman Sachs’ sell rating on Apple stock was the Cupertino company's challenges at meeting iPhone sales growth metrics going forward. Rod Hall explained it:\n\n “Apple continues to show strong execution, but we see fundamentals more likely to disappoint in 2021 as the long-anticipated 5G iPhone fails to meet optimistic consensus expectations and services revenue growth slows.”\n\nTo be fair, Apple’s most recent financial results had been far from exhilarating ahead of Goldman’s stock rating upgrade. The Cupertino company's main revenue generator, the iPhone, had produced timid results in 2020, making some wonder if smartphone sales would disappoint at the start of the 5G cycle.\nThe plateauing in smartphone sales preceded the pandemic year. Based on data from third party-research companies Gartner and Strategy Analytics, 187 million iPhones were sold in 2019, fewer than the 217 million of 2018. And from 2019 to 2020, there was an unprecedented decrease in iPhone revenues: from $142 billion to $138 billion last year.\nTherefore, and based on recent trends, Rod Hall’s bearishness towards the iPhone seemed reasonably justifiable. What had been missing to tip Apple stock over, in the analyst’s view, was a negative catalyst. He believed that the COVID-19 pandemic could be it.\nFigure 1: iPhone quarterly revenue ($bn).\nWhen Goldman Sachs fell off the horse\nGoldman’s rating change on AAPL came in April, after the Cupertino company crushed expectations and released a blowout earnings report. Fiscal second quarter 2021 marked a turning point in iPhone 12 sales, after Apple faced delays in the launch of the new device.\nApple reported iPhone revenues of $47.9 billion versus Wall Street’s consensus $41.5 billion. Year-over-year, the top-line increase was a staggering $19 billion, representing growth of 65%.\nThese numbers probably caught Goldman’s Rod Hall flat-footed.\nHow Goldman Sachs sees Apple going forward\nAccording to Goldman, the neutral position on AAPL is justified by one key metric: revenues per user. The analyst believes that growth in this metric should be in line with U.S. GDP. He points out that Apple's revenues per user have remained static in recent years, only rising during the pandemic due to stay-at-home trends.\nOn the bullish side of the argument, Rod Hall sees the importance of privacy, and thinks that Apple could benefit from increased demand for being an advocate of user data protection. On the bearish side, the analyst remains skeptical that the services segment will grow as much as expected, and that only about 20% to 25% of active users will pay for Apple services.\nThe Apple Maven's take\nRod Hall has not been the first and will not be the last on Wall Street to be proven wrong on a stock rating. Goldman Sachs' position was contrarian, and bold for the same reason. Yet, the Apple Maven believes that Rod Hall’s cautious stance could still be a bit too conservative.\nWhile stay-at-home trends may have distorted fiscal 2020 and early 2021 results, the 5G cycle, the M1 architecture, the expansion of the services portfolio and resilient consumer spending in general may still help to boost Apple's revenue-per-user metric – Goldman’s key concern.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":294,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169904080,"gmtCreate":1623811101540,"gmtModify":1703820204174,"author":{"id":"3579233841001861","authorId":"3579233841001861","name":"HavoHej","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579233841001861","authorIdStr":"3579233841001861"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Will like it for dividend","listText":"Will like it for dividend","text":"Will like it for dividend","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169904080","repostId":"1104356504","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1104356504","pubTimestamp":1623810135,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1104356504?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 10:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Could Amazon Stock Become A Dividend Payer Soon?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1104356504","media":"TheStreet","summary":"Amazon stock does not currently offer investors dividend payments, but could it?

It has been tight-lipped about<i>how</i>. And while QuantumScape is a company with fewer than 250 employees making a non-commercial technology that hasn’t made it into a single electric vehicle (EV), it’s valued at an eye-opening $11 billion. That’s<i>after</i>QS stock fell almost 80% from a high of $130 last December.</p>\n<p>Can anyone really make a solid state battery? If so, when? And with QuantumScape stock down to a more reasonable valuation, is now the time to buy?</p>\n<p>Here’s a closer look.</p>\n<p><b>QS Stock and the Art of EV Alchemy</b></p>\n<p>Founded by Stanford University scientists a decade ago, and backed by&nbsp;<b>Volkswagen AG</b>(OTCMKTS:<b><u>VWAGY</u></b>),<b>Microsoft</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>MSFT</u></b>) and Bill Gates himself,QuantumScape became a public company last November after merging with Kensington Capital Acquisition Corp. Kensington Capital is a SPAC (special-purpose acquisition company).</p>\n<p>QS was backed by promising data, but has no commercial product and zero revenue. It’s easy to understand investors’ fanatical interest in EV battery technology. After all,EVs are one of the few products whose adoption is limited by battery performance.The promise of new solid-state batteries is alluring: faster charging, better energy-storage capacity and longer life.</p>\n<p>If batteries could deliver these benefits, EVs could take more market share, faster, from cars with internal combustion engines.</p>\n<p>Fueled by magical thinking, QuantumScape’s valuation skyrocketed from $3.3 billion when the deal was announced in September to over $33 billion only a month after its public debut. The shift was so dramatic that it&nbsp;briefly surpassed<b>&nbsp;Ford</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:<b><u>F</u></b>). Just to give you some perspective on the insanity, Ford sold more than half a million cars and trucks in the U.S. in that same quarter.</p>\n<p>But QS stock didn’t spend much time in the stratosphere. Following an&nbsp;April short report by activist firm Scorpion Capital, which called the company a “scam,”QuantumScape stock fell back down to earth. Shares now trade around $28 — down 80% from their peak.</p>\n<p><b>Welcome to the SPAC Jungle</b></p>\n<p>In many ways, the QuantumScape story is nothing new. It’s seemingly just one of a handful of crash-and-burn SPAC IPOs in an overheated electric vehicle sector.</p>\n<p>Until last year, going public before delivering a purchasable product was pretty unusual in the automotive world.But no longer. Today, the EV space is rampant with pre-revenue upstarts trading at head-scratchingvaluations, ranging from carmakers&nbsp;<b>Lucid Motors</b>,<b>Nikola</b>&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<b><u>NKLA</u></b>) and&nbsp;<b>Fisker</b>(NYSE:<b><u>FSKR</u></b>), to name a few. QuantumScape is also just one of a slew of overpromising, under-delivering SPACs to meet their (market) maker.</p>\n<p>For example, EV truck-maker&nbsp;<b>Lordstown Motors</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>RIDE</u></b>) imploded earlier this week, and Nikola and&nbsp;<b>Canoo</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>GOEV</u></b>) have both been targeted by short sellers. Oh, and don’t forget the extra salt in the fresh wound here — the Securities and Exchanges Commission is currentlyinvestigating RIDE and NKLA.</p>\n<p>The SPAC jungle is about as far from Paradise City as you can get.</p>\n<p><b>But… If It’s Real, It’s Revolutionary</b></p>\n<p>However, there is one way QuantumScape may stand apart from the quickly expanding graveyard of failed EV startups. If Chief Executive Officer Jagdeep Singh’s team of scientists have succeededwith their revolutionary design, they will have pulled off an astronomical feat.</p>\n<p>Today’s batteries generally have liquid electrolytes — the medium that allows the charge to travel between a cathode and anode. Typically, the electrodes are solid graphite. But QuantumScapeclaims to have developed a proprietary material that it can use to make solid-state batteries that will replace the current carbon or silicon anodes with lithium-metal anodes. In other words, these “solid-state” batteries are more energy-dense. They can provide a much longer range without the need to recharge. They can recharge faster compared to the current batteries. And, in theory, they have significantly lower production costs.</p>\n<p>Several battery startups, includingIonic Materials,Sila Nanotechnologies,Sion PowerandSolid Power, are developing all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). Each of these are expected to be safer and more energy-dense than the lithium-ion products used in today’s EVs and battery systems.

Details are scarce.\nSource: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com\nThe future of battery technology is a slender sheet of ceramic material that’s pliable enough to bend between two fingers.QuantumScape(NYSE:QS) claims to have the secret recipe for anext-generation battery that can boost the range of an electric car by as much as 50% and reduce charging time to less than 15 minutes. It has been tight-lipped abouthow. And while QuantumScape is a company with fewer than 250 employees making a non-commercial technology that hasn’t made it into a single electric vehicle (EV), it’s valued at an eye-opening $11 billion. That’safterQS stock fell almost 80% from a high of $130 last December.\nCan anyone really make a solid state battery? If so, when? And with QuantumScape stock down to a more reasonable valuation, is now the time to buy?\nHere’s a closer look.\nQS Stock and the Art of EV Alchemy\nFounded by Stanford University scientists a decade ago, and backed by Volkswagen AG(OTCMKTS:VWAGY),Microsoft(NASDAQ:MSFT) and Bill Gates himself,QuantumScape became a public company last November after merging with Kensington Capital Acquisition Corp. Kensington Capital is a SPAC (special-purpose acquisition company).\nQS was backed by promising data, but has no commercial product and zero revenue. It’s easy to understand investors’ fanatical interest in EV battery technology. After all,EVs are one of the few products whose adoption is limited by battery performance.The promise of new solid-state batteries is alluring: faster charging, better energy-storage capacity and longer life.\nIf batteries could deliver these benefits, EVs could take more market share, faster, from cars with internal combustion engines.\nFueled by magical thinking, QuantumScape’s valuation skyrocketed from $3.3 billion when the deal was announced in September to over $33 billion only a month after its public debut. The shift was so dramatic that it briefly surpassed Ford (NYSE:F). Just to give you some perspective on the insanity, Ford sold more than half a million cars and trucks in the U.S. in that same quarter.\nBut QS stock didn’t spend much time in the stratosphere. Following an April short report by activist firm Scorpion Capital, which called the company a “scam,”QuantumScape stock fell back down to earth. Shares now trade around $28 — down 80% from their peak.\nWelcome to the SPAC Jungle\nIn many ways, the QuantumScape story is nothing new. It’s seemingly just one of a handful of crash-and-burn SPAC IPOs in an overheated electric vehicle sector.\nUntil last year, going public before delivering a purchasable product was pretty unusual in the automotive world.But no longer. Today, the EV space is rampant with pre-revenue upstarts trading at head-scratchingvaluations, ranging from carmakers Lucid Motors,Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA) and Fisker(NYSE:FSKR), to name a few. QuantumScape is also just one of a slew of overpromising, under-delivering SPACs to meet their (market) maker.\nFor example, EV truck-maker Lordstown Motors(NASDAQ:RIDE) imploded earlier this week, and Nikola and Canoo(NASDAQ:GOEV) have both been targeted by short sellers. Oh, and don’t forget the extra salt in the fresh wound here — the Securities and Exchanges Commission is currentlyinvestigating RIDE and NKLA.\nThe SPAC jungle is about as far from Paradise City as you can get.\nBut… If It’s Real, It’s Revolutionary\nHowever, there is one way QuantumScape may stand apart from the quickly expanding graveyard of failed EV startups. If Chief Executive Officer Jagdeep Singh’s team of scientists have succeededwith their revolutionary design, they will have pulled off an astronomical feat.\nToday’s batteries generally have liquid electrolytes — the medium that allows the charge to travel between a cathode and anode. Typically, the electrodes are solid graphite. But QuantumScapeclaims to have developed a proprietary material that it can use to make solid-state batteries that will replace the current carbon or silicon anodes with lithium-metal anodes. In other words, these “solid-state” batteries are more energy-dense. They can provide a much longer range without the need to recharge. They can recharge faster compared to the current batteries. And, in theory, they have significantly lower production costs.\nSeveral battery startups, includingIonic Materials,Sila Nanotechnologies,Sion PowerandSolid Power, are developing all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). Each of these are expected to be safer and more energy-dense than the lithium-ion products used in today’s EVs and battery systems. Yet, QuantumScape has been the center of attention since the speculation that Apple(NASDAQ:AAPL) could team with Volkswagen to build the Apple iCar.For context,Volkswagen owns 13% of QuantumScape.\nIf the two companies team up, QS could become the company’s go-to EV battery supplier.\nQuantumScape Endures a Scorpion’s Sting\nQuantumScape tells a compelling story. The trouble is that secrecy runs high in the battery industry. That means there’s very little data to substantiate the company’s claims.\nTo be fair, QuantumScape’s batteries (like those of its peers) have only been tested in labs so far. And because there’s no independent verification of claims,industry-wide comparisons are virtually impossible.In fact, QuantumScape even required a photographer to use a color-shifting filter before capturing images of its technology, just in case the material’s true hue revealed any part of its secret recipe.\nThis combination of hype and mystery is catnip for short sellers. So whenScorpion Capital issued its damaging report, the market took notice. Scion called QuantumScape’s test results“cherry-picked”and not industry standard. Essentially, Scorpion suggested that the technology really isn’t viable.\nIndeed, Quantum’s technology is still new and the company doesn’t expect tostart pilot production of its batteries until 2024.Volume sales aren’t expected until 2026 or 2027. Infive years, “the company expects to have a production capacity of 6 GWh (gigawatt hours), which would be enough to support around 60,000 vehicles.” And it might take a year from there to achieve positive EBITDA.\nHalf-Baked Tech\nInvestors hoping to get a sense of the viability of the technology will have to wait a few years. And, the company itself clearly has its work cut out for it.It’s a long haul to commercial production — including creating EV-sized batteries and scaling up manufacturing.\nThere are several other technical factors that the company needs to work on as well before its product is ready for use. Most importantly, QuantumScape has only produced single-layer cells.

At today’s market capitalization of just under $11 billion, QS stock is trading at3.4x 2027 revenue. Volkswagen (QuantumScape’s biggest customer) and Ford both trade at 0.5x forward sales.\nWith the jury still out as to whether QuantumScape can achieve its solid-state battery breakthrough, perhaps the best way to play the speculative solid state battery space right now is simply to buy Ford stock. Ford is alsoa derivative play on QuantumScape competitor Solid Power(Ford is an early investor), whichis said to be in talks to go public through a SPAC merger with Decarbonization Plus Acquisition Corp.

All eyes are now on the central bank’s statement at the end of its two-day policy meeting on Wednesday.\nData showed an acceleration in producer prices last month as supply chains struggled to meet demand unleashed by the reopening of the economy. A separate report showed U.S. retail sales dropped more than expected in May.\n“There was a bit of a reaction to the economic data we got, which, for the most part, shows that the economy is starting to wean itself off stimulus, the recovery is slowing down a little, and inflation is continuing to grow,” said Ed Moya, senior market analyst for the Americas at OANDA.\n“We’re seeing some very modest weakness, and it’ll be choppy leading up to the Fed decision. Right now, the Fed is probably in a position to show they are thinking about tapering, but they’re still a long way from actually doing it.”\nThe Fed is likely to announce in August or September a strategy for reducing its massive bond buying program, but will not start cutting monthly purchases until early next year, a Reuters poll of economists found.\nThe benchmark S&P 500, the blue-chip Dow Jones and the tech-focused Nasdaq have risen 13%, 12.1% and 9.2% respectively so far this year, largely driven by optimism about an economic reopening.\nHowever, the S&P 500 has been broadly stuck within a range, despite recording its 29th record-high finish of 2021 on Monday, versus 33 for all of last year.\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 94.42 points, or 0.27%, to 34,299.33, the S&P 500 lost 8.56 points, or 0.20%, to 4,246.59 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 101.29 points, or 0.71%, to 14,072.86.\nSeven of the 11 major S&P sectors slipped. Among them was communication services, which ended 0.5% lower, having hit a record intraday high earlier in the session.\nThe largest gainer was the energy index, which rose 2.1% on oil prices hitting multi-year highs on a positive demand outlook. Exxon Mobil Corp had its best day since Mar. 5, jumping 3.6%. [O/R]\nIn corporate news, Boeing Co gained 0.6% after the United States and the European Union agreed on a truce in their 17-year conflict over aircraft subsidies involving the planemaker and its rival Airbus.\nHaving slumped 19% on Monday, Lordstown Motors Corp shares rebounded 11.3% after comments from the electric truck manufacturer’s president on orders.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 9.98 billion shares, compared with the 10.58 billion average over the last 20 trading days.\nThe S&P 500 posted 36 new 52-week highs and 1 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 87 new highs and 21 new lows.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":251,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":357197263,"gmtCreate":1617244093452,"gmtModify":1704697729072,"author":{"id":"3579233841001861","authorId":"3579233841001861","name":"HavoHej","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579233841001861","authorIdStr":"3579233841001861"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Amd against Intel!&nbsp;","listText":"Amd against Intel!&nbsp;","text":"Amd against Intel!","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4a99ebbfaf8f3c8594d3680ffb31a404","width":"1080","height":"2236"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/357197263","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":370,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
