This latest move has implications not only for the company but for the entire Electric Vehicle / EV market. On one hand, the price cut ultimately affects the business’ near-term profitability. But on another hand, I view the price cut as a tactical move that will strengthen competitive positioning under the ongoing challenging macro backdrop. The situation has created uncertainty, and as of today, the stock has dropped by ~11% since the Q1 2023 earnings call last week.</p><p>For the long-term, I have a bullish view of Tesla. Notwithstanding its premium valuation, occasional shortcomings, the quirks of its co-founding CEO Elon Musk, as well as its exposure to the cyclical nature of the auto industry, I believe that overall Tesla is one of the most attractive growth stories we can find today. It is a tech company that actively innovates to problem-solve in a very challenging industry, yet operates with a proven track record of consistency of strong growth and profitability.</p><p>This first coverage of Tesla will reflect my long-term view. I start with my viewpoint on the price cuts and how they can create positive consequences as part of Tesla&#39;s competitive strategy based on my latest understanding of where the company stands as of Q1:</p><ul><li><p>Tesla can more than afford to do a price cut. It remains one of the most profitable companies in the auto sector, even after price cuts.</p></li><li><p>Pricing is only one of the two ways to drive profitability. The other one is the cost structure. I believe that Tesla has both the best infrastructure and capability to implement any cost-based strategy to drive higher profitability if it wishes and needs to.</p></li><li><p>I expect the price cuts to be tactical and temporary in nature to capture stronger competitive positioning and volume during the current economic downturn.</p></li></ul><p>In the end, I highlight a few long-term growth and profitability drivers for Tesla between today and FY 2027 as I attempt to estimate a fair target price based on a probability-weighted 5-year revenue forecast.</p><h2>Tesla Can Afford Price Cuts</h2><p>Since the beginning of the year, Tesla has been lowering the price of its vehicles globally to create more demand during economic downturn. Consequently, we saw a record delivery number in Q1 2023. With ~422k deliveries, Tesla beat its previous record of 405k deliveries achieved in the previous quarter, Q4 2022.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6a9cad58722f3c1b6b14ab7649cd4ae9\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"235\"/></p><p>ychart - gross margin TSLA</p><p></p><p>On the flipside, the price cuts have affected Tesla’s profitability. Gross margin was ~19% in Q1, a quite significant decline from ~24% in Q4 2022. Likewise, Q1 diluted EPS was also down to $0.73 from $1.07 the previous quarter. However, despite the financial impact, I believe that it would be underestimating Tesla to suggest that the price cut was not a calculated move that came out of desperation.</p><p>To begin with, Tesla still maintains a relatively very healthy gross margin. Excluding the non-automotive segments, gross margin stands at ~21% instead of ~19%. For context, mass-market-focused traditional auto manufacturers such as Ford (F) and General Motors (GM) had gross margins between 12% - 15% in the most recent quarter, while the luxury auto makers like BMW (OTCPK:BMWYY) or Mercedes Benz (OTCPK:MBGYY)’s gross margins were between 17% - 21%.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6bf6cd99014f7d1c5978143b85c152db\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"270\"/></p><p>author&#39;s own analysis - auto / EV universe</p><p></p><p>Except for Tesla and BYD (OTCPK:BYDDY), most EV-only manufacturers today struggle to generate double-digit gross margins. Tesla, moreover, produced best-in-class gross margin similar to those of luxury automakers even after the price cut.</p><h2>Cost-based Strategies To Drive Higher Margins</h2><p>I believe that while pricing strategy is important, the capability to drive down production costs remains a superior profitability lever for any auto company, especially EV-focused ones. Unlike in the traditional auto industry where all of the automakers have probably reached the ceiling when it comes to innovating new ways to reduce production costs, EV is still an evolving industry that will benefit a lot from technological innovation across the board, especially in supply chain, design, and manufacturing - key areas driving production costs.</p><p>EV companies can usually be differentiated by their technological innovation and approach in those areas. EV startup <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARVL\">Arrival</a> (ARVL), for instance, innovates by using a specialized assembly approach to fit the process of microfactory-based manufacturing which has a lower capex requirement and footprint than a conventional factory. The idea is that Arrival should be able to produce cost-efficient EVs with the concept.</p><p>I continue to anticipate various cost-reduction opportunities that leading EV companies like Tesla can capture through technological innovation, and therefore, I also see opportunities where Tesla can still generate outsized profit margins even if it wishes to continue its cost-leadership pricing strategy. In Investor Day 2023, I noticed a few upcoming technologies that will put Tesla further ahead of its competition in terms of bringing down EV production costs:</p><ul><li><p>Next-generation vehicle manufacturing process: a new manufacturing approach where parts of the cars, such as the front, rear, sides, and doors will be built by different operators on separate lines in parallel pre-assembly. Tesla expects that this new approach will reduce the manufacturing footprint by at least 40% and bring down the Cost of Goods Sold / COGS per unit by 50%. This concept of redefining the traditional manufacturing process to reduce footprint is similar to what Arrival is doing.</p></li><li><p>New powertrain transistors with 75% less SiC / Silicon Carbide: SiC is often used in power electronic components such as converters or inverters. In an EV, these components are integrated into a powertrain, which can easily make up ~20% of the total cost of an EV. It seems that Tesla is coming up with a new way to design their proprietary power electronic components without using the expensive SiC.</p></li><li><p>Switch to 48V electrical architecture - Tesla plans to adopt a 48V system to reduce current by a factor of four in comparison to the 12V systems it is using in its models. The reduction in current also means that Tesla can use smaller, less expensive wires than it is currently using.</p></li><li><p>Replacement of lead acid with lithium-ion / Li-ion batteries - Tesla is also looking to use Li-ion batteries for its new low-voltage system in all of its next-generation vehicles, which will reduce mass by 87%. Previously, Tesla already made the change to 12V Li-ion batteries in both models S and X. With the vehicle being lighter, we should ideally expect range and COGS improvements.</p></li></ul><h2>Competition During Downturn</h2><p>Tesla&#39;s recent decision to cut prices on its vehicles has the potential to drive demand during a period of economic downturn, while also helping the company expand its production capacity and revenue growth.</p><p>Aside from increasing the affordability of Tesla vehicles, I believe that the lower price point can attract new customers who may have previously been hesitant to make the switch to electric vehicles. Moreover, the price cuts can also enable Tesla to drive enough demand to scale up production, leading to increased efficiency and higher overall output.</p><p>I think that the price cut is also an opportunity for Tesla to also put pressure on its competitors. More recently, Tesla’s price cuts have been followed by some rivals, such as XPeng (XPEV) and Ford. Ford most recently lowered the price of its Mustang Mach-E, a model comparable to Tesla’s Model Y.</p><p>The impact of price cut will be much harder on EV makers like Lucid (LCID), Xpeng, or Polestar (PSNYW) Given their relatively lower production capacity as early-stage EV makers, it could be financially damaging for these companies to match Tesla&#39;s price point. On the other hand, maintaining their price can lead to conceding a lot of their market shares to Tesla.</p><h2>Risk</h2><p>As part of its ambition to dominate the global EV market, Tesla has made a significant investment in China, the biggest EV market in the world. Tesla&#39;s Gigafactory in Shanghai is one of its key assets in the region, and the company has plans to expand production capacity at the facility in the coming years. However, the company is facing intense competition from both established automakers and new entrants.</p><p>This intense competition is a significant risk for Tesla, as China remains a critical market where Tesla generated ~22% of the company&#39;s total sales as of FY 2022. Any significant decline in Tesla&#39;s market share in China could have a significant impact on the company&#39;s overall financial performance.</p><p>BYD is Tesla&#39;s biggest competitor in China and has already surpassed Tesla in terms of units sold in 2022. Additionally, Nio and XPeng are also vying for a share of the market. Furthermore, Tesla faces other risks in China beyond the competition. This includes a complex regulatory environment, potential intellectual property theft, geopolitical tensions between the US and China, and cybersecurity risks.</p><p>On the other hand, a lot of growth stories on Tesla, including my own version, have been built on its reputation as a technological innovator in the EV industry.</p><p>While these technological innovations can be game changer, they also carry noteworthy risks as Tesla attempts to bring them to market. Full Self Driving / FSD technology, in particular, exposes the company to potential reputational risk. Tesla’s FSD has come under scrutiny in recent months due to concerns over safety and the accuracy of the system.</p><p>Cybertruck is another innovation that presents a potential risk for Tesla. The vehicle&#39;s radical design may appeal to some consumers, but it could also be a turnoff for others. Cybertruck&#39;s success will depend on its ability to attract a broad range of consumers, and failing to do so will impact Tesla&#39;s overall growth prospects.</p><h2>Valuation/Pricing</h2><p>In estimating my target price for Tesla, I came up with a 5-year revenue forecast based on my version of the growth story under the probability-weighted bull vs bear scenarios.</p><p>1. Bull scenario (80% probability) - Deliveries to hit another record high in FY 2023, while revenue modestly grows by ~20% to ~$100 billion as we consider the effect of lower vehicle prices and ongoing economic downturn. I expect the economic downturn to soften starting in FY 2024 onwards and growth to gradually reaccelerate on a yearly basis to 50% until FY 2027, similar to YoY growth in FY 2022. Tesla will end FY 2027 with ~$400 billion in revenue and ~$3.3 trillion in market cap. The growth story depends on some assumptions:</p><ul><li><p>Tesla will see success in unlocking higher cost efficiencies per vehicle for all new models with its next-generation vehicle platform, driving higher operating margins from cost-based strategies. I would probably expect Tesla to launch this somewhere in 2024 or the beginning of 2025 and see operating margins expand to +20%.</p></li><li><p>On the revenue side, I expect Tesla’s capability to produce EVs with more efficient cost structures to enable entering the mass market, whether with its popular model 3 and model Y, or with a new model). I also expect Tesla’s pricing strategy to drive market share growth further at the expense of its competitors.</p></li><li><p>While it is relatively difficult to set an expectation regarding the numbers for Cybertruck and FSD, I would expect minimal revenue contributions (&lt; 2%) from these segments starting in FY 2024. For comparison, Tesla’s energy business contributed ~4% of Tesla’s overall revenue as of Q1 2023.</p></li><li><p>Tesla’s energy and storage segment, in the meantime, will continue to grow and make up at least 10% of the business by FY 2027, driven by its Megapack business globally, especially in China, where Tesla already set up a factory in Shanghai to make Megapack batteries.</p></li><li><p>From a valuation multiple perspective, I will be a little conservative and assign an FY 2027 P/S of ~8x for Tesla, a figure that is just above today&#39;s ~7x P/S. This P/S reflects Tesla&#39;s continuing EV market leadership, outsized growth and profit margins compared to the rest of its competitors due to its technological leadership (e.g. next-generation vehicle platform), and most importantly the success of broader FSD roll-outs that will earn the company a $5 to $7 billion of additional revenue at SaaS-like margins in FY 2027. As a caveat, my conservative P/S is not taking into account Tesla&#39;s very high popularity, which may drive exceptionally high market demand for the stock in any future milestone-reaching event. When Tesla reached its first year of positive net income in 2020, we saw the stock traded as high as +28x P/S. As Elon Musk said during the recent earnings call, FSD remains the next key milestone for Tesla. With Tesla unlocking next-generation platform and then FSD gradually into FY 2027, I see a possibility of P/S to expand significantly from ~7x level today. As such, the midpoint of 7x - 28x P/S would also be appropriate to account for that technical aspect of the stock.</p></li></ul><p>2. Bear scenario (20% probability) - Revenue modestly grows by ~20% to ~$100 billion, but the prolonged economic downturn affected Tesla’s flexibility in pricing strategy and overall demand for EVs into FY 2024 onwards. Growth to gradually subside from 18% to merely 10% in FY 2027. Tesla will end FY 2027 with merely ~$171 billion of revenue and ~$1 trillion in market cap. Assumptions are as follows:</p><ul><li><p>Tesla to experience further delay in launching its next-generation vehicle platform, and face operational challenges to fall short of its promise of lowering per-unit cost.</p></li><li><p>The same thing with FSD, Tesla will continue to face delays and difficulties in rolling out FSD in various states and other geographies due to regulatory barriers.</p></li><li><p>Cybertruck to see minimal demand and will be discontinued in FY 2025.</p></li><li><p>US-China tension to escalate and affect the Chinese government’s relationship with Tesla, making the Chinese government unofficially favor BYD and limiting Tesla’s flexibility and potential upside in China.</p></li><li><p>From a valuation multiple perspective, the bear outlook would reward Tesla with ~6x P/S, which is slightly lower than today’s level.</p></li></ul><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d8ec403bdcb4ed71a47b099411f1b00\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"332\"/></p><p>author&#39;s own analysis - TSLA 5-year target price model</p><p></p><p>I arrived at an FY 2027 target price of ~$228 for the bear scenario and an FY 2027 target price of ~$729 per share for the bull scenario. Further, I estimate Tesla to have around 30% of share dilution between FY 2023 and FY 2027, the same for both scenarios.</p><p>Consolidating these two scenarios, I arrived at a probability-weighted (80/20 for bull/bear) FY 2027 target price of $628.9 per share. This figure is higher than the all-time-high ~$407 per share in November 2021.</p><p>Applying a discount rate of 20%, which represents the fair expected return for a growth stock like Tesla, the weighted target price in today’s term would be ~$253 per share.</p><p>This means that Tesla is undervalued today, as the stock is currently trading at ~$170 per share. For investors, this simply means that $253 is the maximum entry point to purchase the stock to realize that 20% return annually until FY 2027, where we expect to see a price per share of $628.9, based on my model. The difference between $170 and ~$253 represents an opportunity to realize discounts on the target price.</p><p>One more thing I would like to highlight and elaborate further is the application of P/S instead of P/E valuation multiple in my model. While P/E is commonly used in evaluating traditional auto stocks, I view P/S a more fair metric in evaluating EV makers, who aside from Tesla and BYD, are still largely loss-making and building production capacities to meet growing demand. Pure play EV makers like Tesla should also be valued differently than the traditional auto makers entering EV industry. Pure play EV makers are generally more agile, not burdened with the legacy Internal Combustion Engine / ICE business, and can focus all their resources on developing and refining their EV technologies and business models across the value chain (e.g. assembly process, powertrain, battery, self-driving, etc).</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Tesla&#39;s recent price cuts have garnered attention and affected the company&#39;s short-term profitability, nonetheless, I see it as a strategy that could strengthen their competitive positioning. Despite recent selloffs due to fear of Tesla conceding margins further, Tesla remains one of the most attractive growth stories.</p><p>As it stands, I also see multiple ways for Tesla to drive higher margins through its cost-based strategy. I am also of the view that the price cuts are likely temporary and aimed at capturing market share during the current economic downturn.</p><p>I expect Tesla to continue being exposed to several risk factors, and the price cut is the least of concerns. Intense competition from established automakers and new entrants like BYD, Nio, and XPeng in China and other geographies is something investors need to pay attention to. China is a critical market, and any decline in Tesla&#39;s market share could impact the company&#39;s financial performance. Nonetheless, Tesla’s China presence also comes with its own set of geopolitical risks.

This latest move has implications not only for the company but for the entire Electric Vehicle / EV market. On one hand, the price cut ultimately affects the business’ near-term profitability. But on another hand, I view the price cut as a tactical move that will strengthen competitive positioning under the ongoing challenging macro backdrop. The situation has created uncertainty, and as of today, the stock has dropped by ~11% since the Q1 2023 earnings call last week.For the long-term, I have a bullish view of Tesla. Notwithstanding its premium valuation, occasional shortcomings, the quirks of its co-founding CEO Elon Musk, as well as its exposure to the cyclical nature of the auto industry, I believe that overall Tesla is one of the most attractive growth stories we can find today. It is a tech company that actively innovates to problem-solve in a very challenging industry, yet operates with a proven track record of consistency of strong growth and profitability.This first coverage of Tesla will reflect my long-term view. I start with my viewpoint on the price cuts and how they can create positive consequences as part of Tesla's competitive strategy based on my latest understanding of where the company stands as of Q1:Tesla can more than afford to do a price cut. It remains one of the most profitable companies in the auto sector, even after price cuts.Pricing is only one of the two ways to drive profitability. The other one is the cost structure. I believe that Tesla has both the best infrastructure and capability to implement any cost-based strategy to drive higher profitability if it wishes and needs to.I expect the price cuts to be tactical and temporary in nature to capture stronger competitive positioning and volume during the current economic downturn.In the end, I highlight a few long-term growth and profitability drivers for Tesla between today and FY 2027 as I attempt to estimate a fair target price based on a probability-weighted 5-year revenue forecast.Tesla Can Afford Price CutsSince the beginning of the year, Tesla has been lowering the price of its vehicles globally to create more demand during economic downturn. Consequently, we saw a record delivery number in Q1 2023. With ~422k deliveries, Tesla beat its previous record of 405k deliveries achieved in the previous quarter, Q4 2022.ychart - gross margin TSLAOn the flipside, the price cuts have affected Tesla’s profitability. Gross margin was ~19% in Q1, a quite significant decline from ~24% in Q4 2022. Likewise, Q1 diluted EPS was also down to $0.73 from $1.07 the previous quarter. However, despite the financial impact, I believe that it would be underestimating Tesla to suggest that the price cut was not a calculated move that came out of desperation.To begin with, Tesla still maintains a relatively very healthy gross margin. Excluding the non-automotive segments, gross margin stands at ~21% instead of ~19%. For context, mass-market-focused traditional auto manufacturers such as Ford (F) and General Motors (GM) had gross margins between 12% - 15% in the most recent quarter, while the luxury auto makers like BMW (OTCPK:BMWYY) or Mercedes Benz (OTCPK:MBGYY)’s gross margins were between 17% - 21%.author's own analysis - auto / EV universeExcept for Tesla and BYD (OTCPK:BYDDY), most EV-only manufacturers today struggle to generate double-digit gross margins. Tesla, moreover, produced best-in-class gross margin similar to those of luxury automakers even after the price cut.Cost-based Strategies To Drive Higher MarginsI believe that while pricing strategy is important, the capability to drive down production costs remains a superior profitability lever for any auto company, especially EV-focused ones. Unlike in the traditional auto industry where all of the automakers have probably reached the ceiling when it comes to innovating new ways to reduce production costs, EV is still an evolving industry that will benefit a lot from technological innovation across the board, especially in supply chain, design, and manufacturing - key areas driving production costs.EV companies can usually be differentiated by their technological innovation and approach in those areas. EV startup Arrival (ARVL), for instance, innovates by using a specialized assembly approach to fit the process of microfactory-based manufacturing which has a lower capex requirement and footprint than a conventional factory. The idea is that Arrival should be able to produce cost-efficient EVs with the concept.I continue to anticipate various cost-reduction opportunities that leading EV companies like Tesla can capture through technological innovation, and therefore, I also see opportunities where Tesla can still generate outsized profit margins even if it wishes to continue its cost-leadership pricing strategy. In Investor Day 2023, I noticed a few upcoming technologies that will put Tesla further ahead of its competition in terms of bringing down EV production costs:Next-generation vehicle manufacturing process: a new manufacturing approach where parts of the cars, such as the front, rear, sides, and doors will be built by different operators on separate lines in parallel pre-assembly. Tesla expects that this new approach will reduce the manufacturing footprint by at least 40% and bring down the Cost of Goods Sold / COGS per unit by 50%. This concept of redefining the traditional manufacturing process to reduce footprint is similar to what Arrival is doing.New powertrain transistors with 75% less SiC / Silicon Carbide: SiC is often used in power electronic components such as converters or inverters. In an EV, these components are integrated into a powertrain, which can easily make up ~20% of the total cost of an EV. It seems that Tesla is coming up with a new way to design their proprietary power electronic components without using the expensive SiC.Switch to 48V electrical architecture - Tesla plans to adopt a 48V system to reduce current by a factor of four in comparison to the 12V systems it is using in its models. The reduction in current also means that Tesla can use smaller, less expensive wires than it is currently using.Replacement of lead acid with lithium-ion / Li-ion batteries - Tesla is also looking to use Li-ion batteries for its new low-voltage system in all of its next-generation vehicles, which will reduce mass by 87%. Previously, Tesla already made the change to 12V Li-ion batteries in both models S and X. With the vehicle being lighter, we should ideally expect range and COGS improvements.Competition During DownturnTesla's recent decision to cut prices on its vehicles has the potential to drive demand during a period of economic downturn, while also helping the company expand its production capacity and revenue growth.Aside from increasing the affordability of Tesla vehicles, I believe that the lower price point can attract new customers who may have previously been hesitant to make the switch to electric vehicles. Moreover, the price cuts can also enable Tesla to drive enough demand to scale up production, leading to increased efficiency and higher overall output.I think that the price cut is also an opportunity for Tesla to also put pressure on its competitors. More recently, Tesla’s price cuts have been followed by some rivals, such as XPeng (XPEV) and Ford. Ford most recently lowered the price of its Mustang Mach-E, a model comparable to Tesla’s Model Y.The impact of price cut will be much harder on EV makers like Lucid (LCID), Xpeng, or Polestar (PSNYW) Given their relatively lower production capacity as early-stage EV makers, it could be financially damaging for these companies to match Tesla's price point. On the other hand, maintaining their price can lead to conceding a lot of their market shares to Tesla.RiskAs part of its ambition to dominate the global EV market, Tesla has made a significant investment in China, the biggest EV market in the world. Tesla's Gigafactory in Shanghai is one of its key assets in the region, and the company has plans to expand production capacity at the facility in the coming years. However, the company is facing intense competition from both established automakers and new entrants.This intense competition is a significant risk for Tesla, as China remains a critical market where Tesla generated ~22% of the company's total sales as of FY 2022. Any significant decline in Tesla's market share in China could have a significant impact on the company's overall financial performance.BYD is Tesla's biggest competitor in China and has already surpassed Tesla in terms of units sold in 2022. Additionally, Nio and XPeng are also vying for a share of the market. Furthermore, Tesla faces other risks in China beyond the competition. This includes a complex regulatory environment, potential intellectual property theft, geopolitical tensions between the US and China, and cybersecurity risks.On the other hand, a lot of growth stories on Tesla, including my own version, have been built on its reputation as a technological innovator in the EV industry.While these technological innovations can be game changer, they also carry noteworthy risks as Tesla attempts to bring them to market. Full Self Driving / FSD technology, in particular, exposes the company to potential reputational risk. Tesla’s FSD has come under scrutiny in recent months due to concerns over safety and the accuracy of the system.Cybertruck is another innovation that presents a potential risk for Tesla. The vehicle's radical design may appeal to some consumers, but it could also be a turnoff for others. Cybertruck's success will depend on its ability to attract a broad range of consumers, and failing to do so will impact Tesla's overall growth prospects.Valuation/PricingIn estimating my target price for Tesla, I came up with a 5-year revenue forecast based on my version of the growth story under the probability-weighted bull vs bear scenarios.1. Bull scenario (80% probability) - Deliveries to hit another record high in FY 2023, while revenue modestly grows by ~20% to ~$100 billion as we consider the effect of lower vehicle prices and ongoing economic downturn. I expect the economic downturn to soften starting in FY 2024 onwards and growth to gradually reaccelerate on a yearly basis to 50% until FY 2027, similar to YoY growth in FY 2022. Tesla will end FY 2027 with ~$400 billion in revenue and ~$3.3 trillion in market cap. The growth story depends on some assumptions:Tesla will see success in unlocking higher cost efficiencies per vehicle for all new models with its next-generation vehicle platform, driving higher operating margins from cost-based strategies. I would probably expect Tesla to launch this somewhere in 2024 or the beginning of 2025 and see operating margins expand to +20%.On the revenue side, I expect Tesla’s capability to produce EVs with more efficient cost structures to enable entering the mass market, whether with its popular model 3 and model Y, or with a new model). I also expect Tesla’s pricing strategy to drive market share growth further at the expense of its competitors.While it is relatively difficult to set an expectation regarding the numbers for Cybertruck and FSD, I would expect minimal revenue contributions (< 2%) from these segments starting in FY 2024. For comparison, Tesla’s energy business contributed ~4% of Tesla’s overall revenue as of Q1 2023.Tesla’s energy and storage segment, in the meantime, will continue to grow and make up at least 10% of the business by FY 2027, driven by its Megapack business globally, especially in China, where Tesla already set up a factory in Shanghai to make Megapack batteries.From a valuation multiple perspective, I will be a little conservative and assign an FY 2027 P/S of ~8x for Tesla, a figure that is just above today's ~7x P/S. This P/S reflects Tesla's continuing EV market leadership, outsized growth and profit margins compared to the rest of its competitors due to its technological leadership (e.g. next-generation vehicle platform), and most importantly the success of broader FSD roll-outs that will earn the company a $5 to $7 billion of additional revenue at SaaS-like margins in FY 2027. As a caveat, my conservative P/S is not taking into account Tesla's very high popularity, which may drive exceptionally high market demand for the stock in any future milestone-reaching event. When Tesla reached its first year of positive net income in 2020, we saw the stock traded as high as +28x P/S. As Elon Musk said during the recent earnings call, FSD remains the next key milestone for Tesla. With Tesla unlocking next-generation platform and then FSD gradually into FY 2027, I see a possibility of P/S to expand significantly from ~7x level today. As such, the midpoint of 7x - 28x P/S would also be appropriate to account for that technical aspect of the stock.2. Bear scenario (20% probability) - Revenue modestly grows by ~20% to ~$100 billion, but the prolonged economic downturn affected Tesla’s flexibility in pricing strategy and overall demand for EVs into FY 2024 onwards. Growth to gradually subside from 18% to merely 10% in FY 2027. Tesla will end FY 2027 with merely ~$171 billion of revenue and ~$1 trillion in market cap. Assumptions are as follows:Tesla to experience further delay in launching its next-generation vehicle platform, and face operational challenges to fall short of its promise of lowering per-unit cost.The same thing with FSD, Tesla will continue to face delays and difficulties in rolling out FSD in various states and other geographies due to regulatory barriers.Cybertruck to see minimal demand and will be discontinued in FY 2025.US-China tension to escalate and affect the Chinese government’s relationship with Tesla, making the Chinese government unofficially favor BYD and limiting Tesla’s flexibility and potential upside in China.From a valuation multiple perspective, the bear outlook would reward Tesla with ~6x P/S, which is slightly lower than today’s level.author's own analysis - TSLA 5-year target price modelI arrived at an FY 2027 target price of ~$228 for the bear scenario and an FY 2027 target price of ~$729 per share for the bull scenario. Further, I estimate Tesla to have around 30% of share dilution between FY 2023 and FY 2027, the same for both scenarios.Consolidating these two scenarios, I arrived at a probability-weighted (80/20 for bull/bear) FY 2027 target price of $628.9 per share. This figure is higher than the all-time-high ~$407 per share in November 2021.Applying a discount rate of 20%, which represents the fair expected return for a growth stock like Tesla, the weighted target price in today’s term would be ~$253 per share.This means that Tesla is undervalued today, as the stock is currently trading at ~$170 per share. For investors, this simply means that $253 is the maximum entry point to purchase the stock to realize that 20% return annually until FY 2027, where we expect to see a price per share of $628.9, based on my model. The difference between $170 and ~$253 represents an opportunity to realize discounts on the target price.One more thing I would like to highlight and elaborate further is the application of P/S instead of P/E valuation multiple in my model. While P/E is commonly used in evaluating traditional auto stocks, I view P/S a more fair metric in evaluating EV makers, who aside from Tesla and BYD, are still largely loss-making and building production capacities to meet growing demand. Pure play EV makers like Tesla should also be valued differently than the traditional auto makers entering EV industry. Pure play EV makers are generally more agile, not burdened with the legacy Internal Combustion Engine / ICE business, and can focus all their resources on developing and refining their EV technologies and business models across the value chain (e.g. assembly process, powertrain, battery, self-driving, etc).ConclusionTesla's recent price cuts have garnered attention and affected the company's short-term profitability, nonetheless, I see it as a strategy that could strengthen their competitive positioning. Despite recent selloffs due to fear of Tesla conceding margins further, Tesla remains one of the most attractive growth stories.As it stands, I also see multiple ways for Tesla to drive higher margins through its cost-based strategy. I am also of the view that the price cuts are likely temporary and aimed at capturing market share during the current economic downturn.I expect Tesla to continue being exposed to several risk factors, and the price cut is the least of concerns. Intense competition from established automakers and new entrants like BYD, Nio, and XPeng in China and other geographies is something investors need to pay attention to. China is a critical market, and any decline in Tesla's market share could impact the company's financial performance. Nonetheless, Tesla’s China presence also comes with its own set of geopolitical risks. Meanwhile, new initiatives like FSD and the Cybertruck also carry risks, such as regulatory, reputational, and demand risks.I continue to maintain an optimistic view of Tesla. Based on my growth story and projection, its probability-weighted target price is around $253 per share, making the stock undervalued today. Investors should aim to purchase below $253 for a maximum 20% annual return until FY 2027 when we hope to observe a $628.9 per share price target according to the model.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":349,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9953917564,"gmtCreate":1673136748058,"gmtModify":1676538790215,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3579245419278799","idStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9953917564","repostId":"2301920190","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2301920190","pubTimestamp":1673047547,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2301920190?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-01-07 07:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Top Tech Stocks to Buy in January","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2301920190","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Down between 59% and 80%, these growth stocks are great buys this month.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The past year has not been kind to technology stocks.

Cloudflare</h2><p>While <b>Cloudflare</b> isn&#39;t as well-known as internet giants like <b>Amazon</b>, <b>Alphabet</b>, and <b>Microsoft</b>, it plays an absolutely essential role in the modern web. Between its protections against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks and content delivery network (CDN) technologies for speeding up the transmission of data across the internet, Cloudflare provides indispensable services that keep websites and applications online and performing efficiently.</p><p>Clients that were already using Cloudflare&#39;s services in the prior-year period increased their spending 24% year over year in the third quarter, and continued growth in its customer count helped the company post a 47% surge in sales.The performance pushed the company above $1 billion in annualized revenue for the first time, and the 78.1% non-GAAP (adjusted) gross margin recorded in Q3 suggests that the business should be able to expand profitably as it continues to tap into a huge addressable market opportunity.</p><p>The massive scale of Cloudflare&#39;s global network and ease of use of its software are significant competitive advantages that the company should be able to maintain going forward. The web services specialist is enabling its customers to operate with a combination of security and speed, and it&#39;s positioned to benefit from powerful demand catalysts as the internet continues to grow.</p><p>With the stock down roughly 80% from its high, Cloudflare is a strong buy for investors seeking to build positions in high-quality tech companies.</p><h2>2. Airbnb</h2><p><b>Airbnb</b> is a fantastic company, and its innovative property rentals business is positioned to benefit from a positive feedback loop that should translate into strong returns for patient shareholders.</p><p>Success for hosts makes it more likely that they will list new properties or otherwise become increasingly engaged on the platform. Good experiences for guests increase the likelihood of repeat stays through Airbnb, thereby improving opportunities for hosts. For long-term investors, there&#39;s a very attractive dynamic at play here.</p><p>Airbnb has scaled rapidly since its founding in 2008, but the company still has an incredible long-term growth opportunity ahead of it. And crucially, there are already strong signs that the company will be able to drive that growth profitably.</p><p>Spurred by 29% year-over-year sales growth and a roughly 86% gross margin, Airbnb&#39;s net income rose 46% to reach roughly $1.2 billion in the third quarter.The business has also tallied about $3.3 billion in free cash flow over the trailing 12 months at a 41% margin.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite has fallen 33% over the last 12 months and is down 35% from its peak, putting the index deep into bear-market territory. Macroeconomic conditions have crushed valuations for many growth-dependent companies, but today's challenging market backdrop will also likely set the stage for huge returns to arrive somewhere down the line.For long-term investors, a bear market is historically the best time to buy stocks and build positions in solid companies capable of going the distance. If you're searching for investment opportunities that have the potential to deliver big gains, read on for a look at three technology stocks that look like great buys in January.Image source: Getty Images.1. CloudflareWhile Cloudflare isn't as well-known as internet giants like Amazon, Alphabet, and Microsoft, it plays an absolutely essential role in the modern web. Between its protections against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks and content delivery network (CDN) technologies for speeding up the transmission of data across the internet, Cloudflare provides indispensable services that keep websites and applications online and performing efficiently.Clients that were already using Cloudflare's services in the prior-year period increased their spending 24% year over year in the third quarter, and continued growth in its customer count helped the company post a 47% surge in sales.The performance pushed the company above $1 billion in annualized revenue for the first time, and the 78.1% non-GAAP (adjusted) gross margin recorded in Q3 suggests that the business should be able to expand profitably as it continues to tap into a huge addressable market opportunity.The massive scale of Cloudflare's global network and ease of use of its software are significant competitive advantages that the company should be able to maintain going forward. The web services specialist is enabling its customers to operate with a combination of security and speed, and it's positioned to benefit from powerful demand catalysts as the internet continues to grow.With the stock down roughly 80% from its high, Cloudflare is a strong buy for investors seeking to build positions in high-quality tech companies.2. AirbnbAirbnb is a fantastic company, and its innovative property rentals business is positioned to benefit from a positive feedback loop that should translate into strong returns for patient shareholders.Success for hosts makes it more likely that they will list new properties or otherwise become increasingly engaged on the platform. Good experiences for guests increase the likelihood of repeat stays through Airbnb, thereby improving opportunities for hosts. For long-term investors, there's a very attractive dynamic at play here.Airbnb has scaled rapidly since its founding in 2008, but the company still has an incredible long-term growth opportunity ahead of it. And crucially, there are already strong signs that the company will be able to drive that growth profitably.Spurred by 29% year-over-year sales growth and a roughly 86% gross margin, Airbnb's net income rose 46% to reach roughly $1.2 billion in the third quarter.The business has also tallied about $3.3 billion in free cash flow over the trailing 12 months at a 41% margin. These are stellar results that would have likely translated into a substantial boost for the stock were it not for macroeconomic headwinds crushing the market's appetite for growth stocks.As it stands, Airbnb shares have fallen roughly 48% over the last year and are down 59% from their peak valuation.For long-term investors seeking potentially explosive returns, I think the stock presents one of the most appealing risk-reward dynamics on the market at current prices.3. Meta PlatformsMeta Platforms has been struggling lately. The digital advertising market has faced headwinds and user-data changes made by Apple have made it more difficult to serve effectively targeted ads on its mobile platform. Meta stock is off 67% from its high, and its market capitalization and valuation multiples have been pushed down to eye-catching levels.META PE Ratio (Forward) data by YChartsThe company is making a huge bet on its future, and much of its long-term outlook likely hinges on to what extent it's capable of making its metaverse vision a reality.

So this could be a great time to put some extra money or end-of-the-year bonuses to work.</p><p>Let&#39;s take a look at three stocks that look set to bounce back in 2023.</p><h2>1.

For example, management said that single-room listings increased 31% in the third quarter as people around the world looked for a way to cope with high inflation. That growth in inventory will help the company over the long term and ensure that it will be able to offer affordable places for travelers to stay. Often, a single-room listing will beat the price of a competing hotel room, making Airbnb a good option for budget travelers.</p><p>If the company can continue to grow and gain market share through the potential recession, it will emerge even better equipped to take advantage of the opportunity in travel and experiences valued at well over $1 trillion.</p><h2>2. A shaken search giant</h2><p>Like Airbnb, <b>Alphabet</b> is another top dog that&#39;s taken a dive this year.</p><p>Shares of the Google parent have tumbled as growth has dramatically slowed following its own pandemic boom.

But advertising is cyclical. It will recover once the economy begins to expand again.</p><p>Alphabet has been through this cycle twice before, in the financial crisis and during the pandemic, and both times it&#39;s made a robust recovery. There&#39;s no reason to expect anything different this time around. Once the business starts to accelerate, its current price-to-earnings ratio of 19 is likely to look like a bargain.</p><h2>3. A tech giant with fixable problems</h2><p><b>Amazon</b> is facing challenges at every turn, it seems. So far this year, its growth rate has shrunk to just single digits, the company has shuttered once-promising concepts like Amazon Care, it&#39;s canceled or closed dozens of warehouses, and it just announced plans to lay off roughly 10,000 corporate workers. Now, even Amazon&#39;s once-impeccable customer satisfaction scores are slipping.</p><p>As a result, the stock is down 45% year to date and has now given back roughly all of its pandemic-era gains when the e-commerce business was booming, and it was posting record profits.</p><p>Despite those challenges, Amazon has the means to get back on track, and its competitive advantages like Prime membership, fast delivery, its third-party marketplace, and others are just as strong as they were a year ago.</p><p>Amazon made errors, including overestimating the trajectory of e-commerce demand coming out of the pandemic. But taking steps to control costs, such as laying off employees, closing warehouses, and pulling back spending on unprofitable items like Amazon Care and Alexa, will show up on the bottom line.</p><p>Meanwhile, Amazon Web Services remains a profit machine, on track for close to $25 billion in operating income this year. Its e-commerce business should get back to profitability as it rebalances costs and benefits from a high-margin advertising business that is approaching $40 billion in annual revenue.</p><p>On a price-to-sales basis, the stock is as cheap as it&#39;s been in eight years before investors were aware of AWS&#39;s potential. While its growth rate may slow down now that annual revenue is set to top $500 billion, the company still has a lot of room to ramp up profits. With the cost-cutting moves it&#39;s making now, it should see a sharp improvement on the bottom line in 2023.</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 You'll Be Thankful to Own in 2023</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 You'll Be Thankful to Own in 2023\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-11-25 16:01 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/11/24/3-stocks-youll-be-thankful-to-own-in-2023/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Turkey day is here, and that means that 2023 isn't far around the corner.While you're celebrating the holidays with friends and family, it's also a good time of year to get your financial house in ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/11/24/3-stocks-youll-be-thankful-to-own-in-2023/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AMZN":"亚马逊","GOOG":"谷歌","GOOGL":"谷歌A","ABNB":"爱彼迎"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/11/24/3-stocks-youll-be-thankful-to-own-in-2023/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2285389313","content_text":"Turkey day is here, and that means that 2023 isn't far around the corner.While you're celebrating the holidays with friends and family, it's also a good time of year to get your financial house in order.

With the cost-cutting moves it's making now, it should see a sharp improvement on the bottom line in 2023.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":554,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9937151857,"gmtCreate":1663382478279,"gmtModify":1676537263019,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3579245419278799","idStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"☀️","listText":"☀️","text":"☀️","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9937151857","repostId":"1160797562","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1160797562","pubTimestamp":1663375818,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1160797562?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-17 08:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is It Time for NIO's Stock to Shine?

Also: Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook reveals his biggest debate with Steve Jobs.</p><p><b>The Starters</b></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/35606ed26fcdfb48728535d3a2eb4c04\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"533\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>The iPhone 14 Pro.Photographer: Nic Coury/Bloomberg</span></p><p>Apple Inc.’s biggest event of the year delivered some dazzling upgrades and some ho-hum products. At Wednesday’s Far Out launch extravaganza, the tech giant rolled out updates to the iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch. It also stressed the theme of the Apple product ecosystem more forcefully than it ever has before.</p><p>Most of the major changes were expected, but Apple did reveal a few clever touches—most notably, the iPhone 14 Pro’s Dynamic Island. The feature is a real feat. There’s nothing more “Apple” than taking the ugliest part of the iPhone (the notch) and disguising it as one of the most impressive integrated hardware-software features in years.</p><p>The Pro enhancements contrast with those of the standard iPhone 14, which is largely unchanged from the iPhone 13. It follows the same playbook as the iPhone XS in 2018: You can get a larger screen in the form of the iPhone 14 Plus, just like the XS Max. Otherwise, there’s little reason to upgrade.</p><p>I think it’s fair to say the regular iPhone 14 is the least impressive year-over-year update in the product’s history. Apple didn’t even bother giving the standard iPhone 14 its newest chip, which was an unprecedented move.</p><p>The second-generation AirPods Pro, meanwhile, answer a lot of longstanding user requests: enhanced noise cancellation, improved bass and sound, better blocking of background noise, longer battery life and—finally—the ability to swipe on the earbuds’ stems to control playback and volume.</p><p>For consumers new to AirPods, the latest Pro model appears to be an excellent choice. If, like me, you bought the first AirPods Pro in October 2019, now is also probably a good time to upgrade—especially if your batteries are waning.</p><p>If there is a knock on the AirPods, it’s that they don’t support Apple’s new lossless audio feature. That technology allows for music playback that’s “virtually indistinguishable from the original studio recording,” according to the company. The feature isn’t yet supported by any AirPods model, and the rollout of the new Pro earbuds might have been an opportunity to change that.</p><p>The problem with bringing lossless audio to AirPods is Bluetooth, a wireless protocol that doesn’t have enough power to stream such high-quality audio. It’s no secret that Apple has been cooking up a solution internally, though: a replacement for Bluetooth that would eventually bring the feature to future AirPods.</p><p>Then there’s the Apple Watch. As I indicated several months ago, we’re getting the broadest set of changes to this product since it launched in 2015. For the first time, Apple introduced three distinct models: a new low-end SE, the standard Series 8 and the upscale Ultra.</p><p>There’s not a lot to say about the new SE. The company developed a different production process and gave the device a cheaper back casing to help cut the price by $30: $249 instead of $279. That was a necessary move with the discontinuation of the $199 Apple Watch Series 3. If you have an SE from 2020, I see no reason to upgrade for a slightly faster processor.</p><p>The Series 8 model isn’t a dramatic update either. It does have a body-temperature sensor for women’s health—something that could benefit millions of people. But the model lacks design changes, additional health sensors like a blood-pressure monitor, a faster processor, better speakers or improved battery life (aside from the new low-power mode).</p><p>It’s also worth noting that Apple won’t allow users to determine their actual body temperature with the new sensor, which would help customers replace thermometers like they have with blood-oxygen readers.</p><p>The Ultra, on the other hand, is one of the most impressive new pieces of hardware from Apple in years. Its programmable side button, giant display and supersized battery life will be prized by anyone who wants the best Apple Watch—not necessarily just scuba divers or marathon runners.</p><p>With that in mind, I’m not sure Apple should have exclusively focused its Ultra marketing on extreme sports athletes. Instead, it could have also highlighted how the features appeal to non-athletes and released a slew of daily wear bands. An update to the link bracelet in titanium, for instance, would have been great.</p><p>But even if the Ultra watch and iPhone 14 Pro are worthy upgrades, the biggest theme of the day was making it as hard as possible to walk away from Apple’s ecosystem.</p><p>This goes beyond how well the various products work together. The company is increasingly touting the iPhone and Apple Watch as devices that can save your life. The watch already offers the ability to detect heart problems or a bad fall. Now Apple is introducing car-crash alerts and emergency satellite services.</p><p>The idea of Apple products saving your life will surely be ingrained in people’s minds by the company’s marketing department over the coming months and years. That will leave many consumers with the distinct impression that ditching their iPhone or Apple Watch is an irresponsible move.</p><p>Of course, Apple rivals such as Samsung Electronics Co. have their own safety features. And companies like T-Mobile US Inc. are trying to open up satellite connections to all mobile-phone users, not just the iPhone crowd.</p><p>But Apple is hard to beat in making its technology seem like the safest bet. Other changes, like the company’s shift to virtual eSIM cards in the US, could make it even more difficult to leave the iPhone (though it may create complications for customers who travel internationally and use carriers that don’t support the standard).</p><p>The theme of locking in users to the Apple ecosystem has been a major one for the company in recent years. These days, the ability of Apple products to play nicely together is more of a competitive advantage than ever and key to expanding the company’s user base, generating more recurring revenue and—most importantly—preventing defections to rival platforms.</p><p>I attended the Code Conference on Wednesday night, where Cook, Laurene Powell Jobs and Jony Ive wereinterviewedby Kara Swisher about the legacy of Steve Jobs. Before the night concluded, Cook was asked by an audience member why the iPhonehasn’t adopted RCS, or rich communication services, a messaging replacement spearheaded by Google.</p><p>He told the questioner, “I don’t hear our users asking that we put a lot of energy in on that at this point” and suggested that he buy his mom an iPhone if he wants to more seamlessly message with her. That says it all.</p><p>The Bench</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/583c6e05c2e9a0e0fd49e5c828db6275\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"540\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Tim Cook speaks during an event at the Steve Jobs Theater.Photographer: David Paul Morris/Bloomberg</span></p><p>Tim Cook reveals his biggest disagreement with Steve Jobs. Here’s another fun tidbit from the Code Conference: Tim Cook discussed the biggest debate he ever had with Steve Jobs. For the original iPhone, Cook wanted carriers to subsidize the device so it would be cheaper for consumers. Jobs wanted carriers to not subsidize it and instead give Apple a revenue share on the carrier plans.</p><p>The original iPhone launched at $499 with no subsidy. Jobs got his way, but not for long. A year later, the iPhone 3G was priced at $199 and customers were given subsidies instead of Apple getting a revenue share. Cook said the subsidy approach helped fuel the device’s massive growth and called the debate with Jobs a multiyear discussion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/25e736656d0980bed26bca0512b868d7\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"446\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Wristcam’s new iPhone to Apple Watch video chat feature.Source: Wristcam</span></p><p>Wristcam update promises video calling without an attachment.

Also: Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook reveals his biggest debate with Steve Jobs.The StartersThe iPhone 14 Pro.Photographer: Nic Coury/BloombergApple Inc.’s biggest event of the year delivered some dazzling upgrades and some ho-hum products. At Wednesday’s Far Out launch extravaganza, the tech giant rolled out updates to the iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch. It also stressed the theme of the Apple product ecosystem more forcefully than it ever has before.Most of the major changes were expected, but Apple did reveal a few clever touches—most notably, the iPhone 14 Pro’s Dynamic Island. The feature is a real feat. There’s nothing more “Apple” than taking the ugliest part of the iPhone (the notch) and disguising it as one of the most impressive integrated hardware-software features in years.The Pro enhancements contrast with those of the standard iPhone 14, which is largely unchanged from the iPhone 13. It follows the same playbook as the iPhone XS in 2018: You can get a larger screen in the form of the iPhone 14 Plus, just like the XS Max. Otherwise, there’s little reason to upgrade.I think it’s fair to say the regular iPhone 14 is the least impressive year-over-year update in the product’s history. Apple didn’t even bother giving the standard iPhone 14 its newest chip, which was an unprecedented move.The second-generation AirPods Pro, meanwhile, answer a lot of longstanding user requests: enhanced noise cancellation, improved bass and sound, better blocking of background noise, longer battery life and—finally—the ability to swipe on the earbuds’ stems to control playback and volume.For consumers new to AirPods, the latest Pro model appears to be an excellent choice. If, like me, you bought the first AirPods Pro in October 2019, now is also probably a good time to upgrade—especially if your batteries are waning.If there is a knock on the AirPods, it’s that they don’t support Apple’s new lossless audio feature. That technology allows for music playback that’s “virtually indistinguishable from the original studio recording,” according to the company. The feature isn’t yet supported by any AirPods model, and the rollout of the new Pro earbuds might have been an opportunity to change that.The problem with bringing lossless audio to AirPods is Bluetooth, a wireless protocol that doesn’t have enough power to stream such high-quality audio. It’s no secret that Apple has been cooking up a solution internally, though: a replacement for Bluetooth that would eventually bring the feature to future AirPods.Then there’s the Apple Watch. As I indicated several months ago, we’re getting the broadest set of changes to this product since it launched in 2015. For the first time, Apple introduced three distinct models: a new low-end SE, the standard Series 8 and the upscale Ultra.There’s not a lot to say about the new SE. The company developed a different production process and gave the device a cheaper back casing to help cut the price by $30: $249 instead of $279. That was a necessary move with the discontinuation of the $199 Apple Watch Series 3. If you have an SE from 2020, I see no reason to upgrade for a slightly faster processor.The Series 8 model isn’t a dramatic update either. It does have a body-temperature sensor for women’s health—something that could benefit millions of people. But the model lacks design changes, additional health sensors like a blood-pressure monitor, a faster processor, better speakers or improved battery life (aside from the new low-power mode).It’s also worth noting that Apple won’t allow users to determine their actual body temperature with the new sensor, which would help customers replace thermometers like they have with blood-oxygen readers.The Ultra, on the other hand, is one of the most impressive new pieces of hardware from Apple in years. Its programmable side button, giant display and supersized battery life will be prized by anyone who wants the best Apple Watch—not necessarily just scuba divers or marathon runners.With that in mind, I’m not sure Apple should have exclusively focused its Ultra marketing on extreme sports athletes. Instead, it could have also highlighted how the features appeal to non-athletes and released a slew of daily wear bands. An update to the link bracelet in titanium, for instance, would have been great.But even if the Ultra watch and iPhone 14 Pro are worthy upgrades, the biggest theme of the day was making it as hard as possible to walk away from Apple’s ecosystem.This goes beyond how well the various products work together. The company is increasingly touting the iPhone and Apple Watch as devices that can save your life. The watch already offers the ability to detect heart problems or a bad fall. Now Apple is introducing car-crash alerts and emergency satellite services.The idea of Apple products saving your life will surely be ingrained in people’s minds by the company’s marketing department over the coming months and years. That will leave many consumers with the distinct impression that ditching their iPhone or Apple Watch is an irresponsible move.Of course, Apple rivals such as Samsung Electronics Co. have their own safety features. And companies like T-Mobile US Inc. are trying to open up satellite connections to all mobile-phone users, not just the iPhone crowd.But Apple is hard to beat in making its technology seem like the safest bet. Other changes, like the company’s shift to virtual eSIM cards in the US, could make it even more difficult to leave the iPhone (though it may create complications for customers who travel internationally and use carriers that don’t support the standard).The theme of locking in users to the Apple ecosystem has been a major one for the company in recent years. These days, the ability of Apple products to play nicely together is more of a competitive advantage than ever and key to expanding the company’s user base, generating more recurring revenue and—most importantly—preventing defections to rival platforms.I attended the Code Conference on Wednesday night, where Cook, Laurene Powell Jobs and Jony Ive wereinterviewedby Kara Swisher about the legacy of Steve Jobs. Before the night concluded, Cook was asked by an audience member why the iPhonehasn’t adopted RCS, or rich communication services, a messaging replacement spearheaded by Google.He told the questioner, “I don’t hear our users asking that we put a lot of energy in on that at this point” and suggested that he buy his mom an iPhone if he wants to more seamlessly message with her. That says it all.The BenchTim Cook speaks during an event at the Steve Jobs Theater.Photographer: David Paul Morris/BloombergTim Cook reveals his biggest disagreement with Steve Jobs. Here’s another fun tidbit from the Code Conference: Tim Cook discussed the biggest debate he ever had with Steve Jobs. For the original iPhone, Cook wanted carriers to subsidize the device so it would be cheaper for consumers. Jobs wanted carriers to not subsidize it and instead give Apple a revenue share on the carrier plans.The original iPhone launched at $499 with no subsidy. Jobs got his way, but not for long. A year later, the iPhone 3G was priced at $199 and customers were given subsidies instead of Apple getting a revenue share. Cook said the subsidy approach helped fuel the device’s massive growth and called the debate with Jobs a multiyear discussion.Wristcam’s new iPhone to Apple Watch video chat feature.Source: WristcamWristcam update promises video calling without an attachment.

It&#39;s Warren Buffett&#39;s largest holding</h2><p>Given his extraordinary track record, investors could do far worse than following in the footsteps of legendary money manager Warren Buffett. Since taking the helm of <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b> in 1965, the &#34;Oracle of Omaha&#34; has delivered mind-boggling returns, generating a compound annual growth rate of more than 20%.

That&#39;s quite a vote of confidence from one of the world&#39;s most successful investors.</p><h2>2. One billion iPhones strong -- and growing</h2><p>There&#39;s no question that the release of the iconic iPhone in 2007 ushered in the modern smartphone and forever changed the way we communicate. The device&#39;s sleek design and integrated computing power took the world by storm. Now, as we await the release of the upcoming iPhone 14, Apple dominates the market, with more than 1 billion active iPhones in the wild.</p><p>Rumors are swirling that the next-generation device -- which is due to be unveiled next week -- could sport some major upgrades and four new models. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives estimates that roughly 24% of iPhone owners worldwide haven&#39;t upgraded their device over the past 3.5 years. Even in the midst of the prevailing macroeconomic headwinds, this could mark the beginning of the next big product cycle for the iPhone.</p><h2>3. Apple is the new black</h2><p>While the iPhone gets all the press, Apple&#39;s wearables, home products, and accessories segment -- which includes such products as Apple Watch, AirPods, AirTags, and Beats headphones -- continue to steadily attract converts. Earlier this year, noted tech analyst Horace Dediu announced that &#34;Apple Wearables is now [the size of] a Fortune 100 business.&#34; In fact, the segment has generated more revenue so far in fiscal 2022 than either the Mac <i>or</i> the iPad.</p><p>Supply constraints and foreign exchange headwinds have weighed on the segment, which grew just 6% year over year through the first three quarters of fiscal 2022. That said, the resulting pent-up demand will eventually give way to a surge in sales. Furthermore, the company is expected to release the latest versions of its Apple Watch next week. These could include a Pro model, which could serve to supercharge sales of the popular device.</p><h2>4. Services: Apple&#39;s second-biggest breadwinner</h2><p>Long before anyone else, CEO Tim Cook saw the potential for Apple&#39;s services segment, announcing plans in early 2017 to double its revenue over the coming four years. Fast forward to mid-2022, and services has come into its own.</p><p>The segment, which includes Apple Music, the App Store, Apple Pay, and Apple TV+ (among others), just set a June quarter record,  generating 19% of Apple&#39;s total revenue. Services also saw revenue records in each major category, including all-time records for Music, Cloud Services, Apple Care, and Payment Services.</p><p>Apple TV+ began as something of an industry joke, with just eight programs and a documentary. But nobody&#39;s laughing now. Apple has netted more than 250 awards and over 1,100 nominations for its programming, including 52 Emmy Award nominations in 2022.</p><h2>5. Dividends: The gift that keeps on giving</h2><p>Apple began paying a dividend again in 2012 and has amassed quite an impressive track record. The quarterly payout began at a split-adjusted $0.095 and has soared 143% in just ten years.</p><p>This includes Apple&#39;s announcement earlier this year, which boosted the quarterly payout to $0.23 per share, an increase of 5% for 2022. That likely won&#39;t be the last increase as Apple is using less than 15% of its profits to fund the payout, giving the company plenty of opportunity for future increases.</p><h2>6. Fewer shares = a bigger slice of the Apple pie</h2><p>Another highlight of Apple&#39;s shareholder-friendly policies is the company&#39;s strong share-repurchase plan. Apple began buying back shares in earnest in early 2013 and has never taken its foot off the gas. As a result, with each passing quarter, Apple shareholders own a larger share of the company. In fact, over the past 10 years, Apple&#39;s share count has declined by nearly 39%.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/efa1386fae6e413934cdecf682a72a71\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"387\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Data by YCharts.</p><p>As an example, the company retired roughly 1% of its shares in its fiscal third quarter and has no plans of slowing down.

These could include a Pro model, which could serve to supercharge sales of the popular device.4. Services: Apple's second-biggest breadwinnerLong before anyone else, CEO Tim Cook saw the potential for Apple's services segment, announcing plans in early 2017 to double its revenue over the coming four years. Fast forward to mid-2022, and services has come into its own.The segment, which includes Apple Music, the App Store, Apple Pay, and Apple TV+ (among others), just set a June quarter record,  generating 19% of Apple's total revenue. Services also saw revenue records in each major category, including all-time records for Music, Cloud Services, Apple Care, and Payment Services.Apple TV+ began as something of an industry joke, with just eight programs and a documentary. But nobody's laughing now. Apple has netted more than 250 awards and over 1,100 nominations for its programming, including 52 Emmy Award nominations in 2022.5. Dividends: The gift that keeps on givingApple began paying a dividend again in 2012 and has amassed quite an impressive track record. The quarterly payout began at a split-adjusted $0.095 and has soared 143% in just ten years.This includes Apple's announcement earlier this year, which boosted the quarterly payout to $0.23 per share, an increase of 5% for 2022. That likely won't be the last increase as Apple is using less than 15% of its profits to fund the payout, giving the company plenty of opportunity for future increases.6. Fewer shares = a bigger slice of the Apple pieAnother highlight of Apple's shareholder-friendly policies is the company's strong share-repurchase plan. Apple began buying back shares in earnest in early 2013 and has never taken its foot off the gas. As a result, with each passing quarter, Apple shareholders own a larger share of the company. In fact, over the past 10 years, Apple's share count has declined by nearly 39%.Data by YCharts.As an example, the company retired roughly 1% of its shares in its fiscal third quarter and has no plans of slowing down. Earlier this year, Apple announced that it added another $90 billion to its existing share-repurchase program.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":467,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9933181504,"gmtCreate":1662252442908,"gmtModify":1676537023429,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3579245419278799","idStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👌&nbsp;","listText":"👌&nbsp;","text":"👌","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9933181504","repostId":"2264288763","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2264288763","pubTimestamp":1662252212,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2264288763?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-04 08:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Post Stock Split, Is Now the Time to Buy Amazon?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2264288763","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"It might be time to consider adding the e-commerce and cloud giant to your shopping cart.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>E-commerce giant <b>Amazon</b> completed a 20-for-1 stock split in June, its first split since 1999. Stock splits don&#39;t change a stock&#39;s fundamental valuation, but a lower share price can make it easier for retail investors to build a position in a company.</p><p>Splits often get a lot of investor attention, sometimes leading to buying frenzies for a stock. Now that a couple of months have passed since this split, it&#39;s an opportune time to revisit Amazon as a potential investment. Here are three things you should know before making a decision about whether to add it to your portfolio.</p><h2>1. The stock is attractively valued</h2><p>Most investors know that 2022 has been a tough year for the stock market, and Amazon hasn&#39;t escaped that fact. Its shares are down roughly 28% since the beginning of the year, but the decline has let some steam out of its valuation. The company&#39;s price-to-sales ratio (P/S) ballooned to more than five at the height of the pandemic.  At its current P/S multiple of 2.7, its valuation is near its lowest level since early 2016.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b111bcf454ddf43d222780d88430315e\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>AMZN PS Ratio data by YCharts</p><p>But context matters. When a stock&#39;s valuation rises or falls significantly, investors need to understand whether something has changed in the company to explain why.</p><p>In Amazon&#39;s case, revenue growth has slowed this year, primarily because it&#39;s being compared to 2021, which was a tough act to follow. For example, Amazon&#39;s Q2 revenue growth in 2021 was 27%. Fast-forward to Q2 2022 when its year over year top-line growth slowed to just 7%. This could help explain why the stock declined. But Amazon&#39;s growth could pick back up again as it will be going up against these more modest 2022 growth figures next year -- and so the bar may be easier to clear.</p><h2>2. Inflation is a real challenge</h2><p>High inflation has been a major economic storyline this year, and it has had a significant impact on Amazon, which operates an extremely price-competitive business that spends a lot on wages and logistics. Consider how Amazon&#39;s operating margins started to plunge as inflation accelerated.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d513decf41b9b80ce7e3efa7a91c54f\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"449\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>AMZN Operating Margin (TTM) data by YCharts</p><p>Falling profit margins aren&#39;t good, but remember that inflation is hitting the entire economy, including all of Amazon&#39;s competitors. Most of them don&#39;t have anything close to Amazon&#39;s size and breadth of operations, which likely means they are struggling too.</p><p>The current high inflation conditions will likely abate eventually. Meanwhile, Amazon has a massive balance sheet with $60 billion in cash, which should allow it to endure the pain of inflation better than most. Investors should maintain a long-term mindset here as it doesn&#39;t seem that inflation will impact Amazon&#39;s competitive position over the long term.</p><h2>3. Profitable business segments are growing</h2><p>E-commerce is notoriously tough to make money in, but it&#39;s a great way to get a foot in the door with consumers. The Amazon Prime membership program is a great tool to bring users into Amazon&#39;s ecosystem, where its other businesses are flourishing. Amazon Web Services, its public cloud platform, has done $72 billion in revenue over the past four quarters; it was also responsible for all of the company&#39;s operating income in Q2. That segment grew 33% in Q2, which could eventually further move the profitability needle.</p><p>Additionally, Amazon is wading further into advertising and is investing heavily in Prime Video, including securing broadcasting rights to the NFL&#39;s <i>Thursday Night Football</i> games in 2022. Amazon&#39;s ad revenue hit nearly $34 billion over the past four quarters. That business could significantly contribute to the company&#39;s performance down the road. Investors will want to keep an eye on the non-retail pieces of Amazon; they could play significant roles in how the company performs over the coming years.</p><h2>Is Amazon a buy?</h2><p>Amazon faces some short-term challenges due to issues outside of its control, and Wall Street hasn&#39;t been in the mood to give it a pass. But it seems like these headwinds will eventually dissipate. Meanwhile, Amazon remains the runaway market share leader for U.S. e-commerce at 38%, and its secondary businesses like AWS and advertising continue to grow.</p><p>Amazon is one of the world&#39;s largest companies, and its stock is probably too big to take you from rags to riches. However, the company remains as dominant as ever, and it doesn&#39;t seem like a reach to expect that investors buying its shares today will be pleased with their returns years from now.</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>Post Stock Split, Is Now the Time to Buy Amazon?</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\">\nPost Stock Split, Is Now the Time to Buy Amazon?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-04 08:43 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/09/03/post-stock-split-is-now-the-time-to-buy-amazon/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>E-commerce giant Amazon completed a 20-for-1 stock split in June, its first split since 1999.

Facebook parent company still looks relatively well positioned for a tougher economic backdrop, according to a Bank of America analyst.</p><p>Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg told executives to brace for more aggressive evaluations and to anticipate tackling more work with fewer resources, according to the New York Times.

And then will come the bull market.</p><p>As per history, points out chief investment strategist Michael Hartnett, the average peak-to-trough bear market decline is 37.3% and lasts 289 days. That would put the end to the pain on Oct. 19, 2022, which happens to mark the 35th anniversary of Black Monday, the name commonly given to the stock market crash of 1987, and the S&amp;P 500 index will likely bottom at 3,000.</p><p>A popular definition of a bear market defines it as a 20% drop from a recent high. As of Thursday, the index was off 23.55% from its record close of 4796.56 hit Monday, Jan. 3, 2022.</p><p>And an end typically marks a beginning with Bank of America noting the average bull market lasts a much longer 64 months with a 198% return, &#34;so next bull sees the S&amp;P 500 at 6,000 by Feb. 28,&#34; said Hartnett.</p><p>Meanwhile, another week saw the bank&#39;s own bull and bear indicator fall as far as it can go into &#34;contrarian bullish&#34; territory --</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d5b388620db70508a92721690ee4a74e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"607\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>That indicator previously fell to 0 in August 2002, July, 2008, Sept. 2011, Sept. 2015, January 2016 and March 2020, said Hartnett. When it has previously hit zero, except in the case of a double-dip recession such as 2002 or systemic events, as in 2008 and 2011, three-month returns have been strong, as this table shows.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/562bea67e5a7522dc96de3ab2c90727c\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"427\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>&#34;Positioning dire, but profits/policy say nibble at SPX 36K, bite at 33K, gorge at 30K,&#34; added Hartnett.

Much of my reasoning stems not from the respective companies&#39; business models but from macroeconomic head- and tailwinds and fiscal and monetary policy differences between China and the USA. The business models of Alibaba and Amazon are relatively comparable and therefore, a good proxy for my macro pair trade idea.</p><p>I suggest this trade for the coming 6-12 months. If readers believe that the similarities between both companies are not sufficient for a pair trade, I suggest expressing the same idea via going long Chinese Internet Equities via the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (KWEB) and short American Internet Equities via the Nasdaq (NDX).</p><p><b>The Market has turned</b></p><p>The Fed tightening is the single most important factor in equity markets today. After the Great Financial Crisis in 2008, the continuous provision of easy money from the Fed via Quantitative Easing resulted in US equities surging. Actively managed ETFs and funds underperformed because everybody could be sure that at some point, the Fed will step in to save the day.</p><p>The fundamental reasoning of the Fed policies was that lower interest rates would spur credit demand of businesses and consumers because of cheaper debt costs. However, after the financial crisis, there were fewer investment opportunities for companies worthwhile pursuing. Additionally, many consumers and businesses saw their collateral collapse and thus were unwilling to borrow until their balance sheets were repaired. This process takes time to unwind. Thus, the economy had a shortage of borrowers for 14 years, and the Fed couldn&#39;t address the problem by lowering the debt costs. QE did almost nothing to the real economy. But it propped up the collateral.</p><p>Fundamentally, the last 40 years have been disinflationary. Central Banks around the world expanded the money supply because there was no downside to printing money, as inflation was low and stable. The resulting wealth effects of these policies were massive, and the gap between poor and rich widened.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41a942d3225895324a1293c6e8fe5852\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>The disinflationary environment vanished during the last 1.5 years because of two reasons. Firstly, the interconnection of the expansive fiscal and monetary policy provided a possibility to print money and inject it into the real economy. Secondly, ongoing supply shortages of commodities due to lack of investment during the last decade increased the cost pressures of businesses and consumers, resulting in cost-push inflation. The cost-push inflation now threatens to translate into a price/wage spiral. The Fed was too expansive during the last 14 years without major effects on the real economy. In March 2020, liquidity provision got to absurd levels. No, as the previously printed money arrives in the real economy, the Fed is caught with its pants down. Inflation was always the downside to money printing. But its effects were delayed due to the fundamental shortage of borrowers and absent transmission systems to the real economy.</p><p><b>The Fed wants a reverse Wealth Effect</b></p><p>The Fed cannot control the supply shortages which emerged due to missing investments - especially in the energy sector. So, the Fed will try to crack down on the demand side to retake control of the inflation rate. It can achieve the goal of reducing demand most effectively by Quantitative Tightening, which will have the reverse effect of Quantitative Easing: It will devalue the collateral. The Fed hopes for a reverse wealth effect. It wants stock prices to depreciate and hopes it doesn&#39;t break the credit market or crush the labor market in the medium term.</p><p>Due to significant government debt, I believe the Fed will pivot in the future as the credit market gets distressed and inflation eases due to lower demand. But the turning point is still far away at this point. Long-only doesn&#39;t work anymore. I believe further downside is coming for global equities, especially the ones at the top of the food chain of all globally diversified ETFs - i.e., the companies with the biggest market capitalizations in the world: American Internet Companies. These are the companies that profited most from Quantitative Easing, and they will be the ones hurt most by Quantitative Tightening.</p><p>Going long and short in this environment is key if investors want to retain their purchasing power. Gaining purchasing power will be difficult due to inflation, but pair trades offer lower risk because of reduced directional market exposure.</p><p><b>Amazon and Alibaba as Proxy</b></p><p>Both Amazon and Alibaba operate mainly in the consumer discretionary segment. Admittedly, the net earnings of Amazon consist of huge contributions from the AWS segment, which is a completely different business with much stronger margins. In that regard, there is a substantial difference in the business models. The Cloud computing segment of Alibaba has just turned towards profitability, and Amazon is much further ahead. However, the revenues of both companies largely stem from E-commerce.</p><p>More importantly, 60% of all net sales of Amazon are in North America, and 26% constitute international sales. The remaining 14% consists of the cloud segment. Conversely, 74% of the net sales of Alibaba are in China, while 7% constitute international sales. The remaining 19% are cloud and other sales.</p><p><b>Why short Amazon?</b></p><p>The ongoing Fed tightening cycle is designed to hurt consumer demand in America via the reverse wealth effect. The average consumer in America will spend their income first on consumer staples and then on consumer discretionary items. Because prices of consumer staples items have increased due to cost-push inflation and wages are not responding in a similar manner (yet), the portion left for consumer discretionary spending is reduced. Furthermore, the cost side of Amazon&#39;s business increases due to higher energy and shipping costs. Because consumers are unable to spend the same portion of their income on consumer discretionary items, Amazon does not have much pricing power. Therefore the margins of its main business will most likely compress.</p><p>Currently, Amazon is still one of the biggest companies by market capitalization. The stock profited massively from Quantitative Easing and will be hurt by Quantitative Tightening to a similar degree, as explained above.</p><p>Because of growth forecasts and ETF inflows, the stock is trading at a high valuation. The P/E (FWD) is currently at 114x. EV/EBITDA (FWD) stands at 16x, and the P/FCF (FWD) is at 17x. If the revenue growth of Amazon decreases further, the stocks could be revalued at a much lower multiple. Currently, Amazon is still expected to grow revenues in 2022 by ~$55 billion (or ~12%). Current EPS estimates point towards a rapid recovery in 2022. I don&#39;t believe that is likely to happen.</p><p><b>Why long Alibaba?</b></p><p>The Chinese macroeconomic environment is currently ahead of the American macroeconomic environment. The Chinese economy suffered a big drawdown due to the mandated lockdowns and COVID restrictions. The China Caixin Manufacturing PMIdroppedto a low of 46 in April and started to reverse in May. Both output and new orders in China fell at a softer rate amid further declines in both export orders and employment. It is likely that the Chinese economy is already through the worst of this economic downturn. From now onwards, consumer spending growth is poised to return to positive territory.</p><p>Chinese policymakers still have room for accommodative fiscal and monetary policy as the inflation rates remain low. In May 2022, China cut the borrowing rate of the five-year loan prime rate (LPR) by 15 basis points to 4.45% to stimulate the housing market. The People&#39;s Bank of China kept the rate on its one-year medium-term lending facility (MLF) at 2.85%. The Chinese policymakers seem hesitant to stimulate the economy in an aggressive way because the Fed is tightening financial conditions at the same time. However, the monetary policy remains neutral in China.</p><p>In 2021, Alibaba got hit by the Chinese regulatory tech crackdown. Alibaba had to pay a $2.8 billion fine for anti-monopoly violations. The company lost ~50% of its market cap during that time. Financial media and investment banks deemed Chinese Equities to be &#34;uninvestable&#34;. However, recentlyJPMorganupgraded some Chinese stocks from neutral to overweight in 2022, and many others from underweight to neutral. Other investment banks followed. The Chinese regulators have signaled an easing of the tech crackdown. They have been aware of the VIE loophole for years and have not acted. It is not in China&#39;s interest to destroy offshore Chinese companies by challenging the existing VIEs. The VIE risk is now sufficiently priced in, as analysts had talked about it extensively and continue to do so. The worst for Alibaba seems to be over.</p><p>Because of the selloff, Alibaba trades at significantly lower multiples. The P/E (FWD) is currently at 15x. EV/EBITDA (FWD) stands at 11x, and the P/FCF (FWD) is at 10x. Alibaba is expected to grow revenues in 2022 by only ~$4 billion (or 3%). Current EPS estimates expect stagnant earnings growth for the next four quarters. I believe Alibaba can surprise to the upside.</p><p>The Charts speak for themselves <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0d5cf7f1ea0742a9c2111a779c35014b\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>The stock prices of Alibaba and Amazon have correlated strongly during the last few years. However, in late 2020 the stock of Alibaba erased all of its gains since its IPO and fell ~70%. I believe the gap will not widen but begin to close during the next 6-12 months.</p><p><b>The Takeaways</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2a293d91b08078d7eaba98b982685125\" tg-width=\"618\" tg-height=\"319\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><b>Risks to the Pair Trade</b></p><p>The Chinese Crackdown on Internet companies could restart, and complications with Jack Ma and the Chinese Regulators could provide downside to the stock of Alibaba. I believe this risk has a low probability to materialize. If the crackdown continues, why would the Chinese regulators have an interest in signaling easing.</p><p>The Fed could restart Quantitative Easing and therefore positively affect the market prices. I believe this is very unlikely to happen due to the inflationary pressures that the US is facing. I think at some point in the future a pivot is guaranteed. But I don&#39;t expect it in 2022 &amp; early 2023. If the Fed starts to ease the monetary conditions, this pair trade will probably underperform massively.</p><p>The Chinese recovery could take longer than expected, and Alibaba could have worse quarters ahead. I believe this is the greatest risk in this pair trade since Chinese regulators have taken the Zero-COVID strategy very seriously as opposed to most countries in the west. Recently, there have been partial lockdowns in Shanghai again due to fresh breakouts of the virus.

Much of my reasoning stems not from the respective companies' business models but from macroeconomic head- and tailwinds and fiscal and monetary policy differences between China and the USA. The business models of Alibaba and Amazon are relatively comparable and therefore, a good proxy for my macro pair trade idea.I suggest this trade for the coming 6-12 months. If readers believe that the similarities between both companies are not sufficient for a pair trade, I suggest expressing the same idea via going long Chinese Internet Equities via the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (KWEB) and short American Internet Equities via the Nasdaq (NDX).The Market has turnedThe Fed tightening is the single most important factor in equity markets today. After the Great Financial Crisis in 2008, the continuous provision of easy money from the Fed via Quantitative Easing resulted in US equities surging. Actively managed ETFs and funds underperformed because everybody could be sure that at some point, the Fed will step in to save the day.The fundamental reasoning of the Fed policies was that lower interest rates would spur credit demand of businesses and consumers because of cheaper debt costs. However, after the financial crisis, there were fewer investment opportunities for companies worthwhile pursuing. Additionally, many consumers and businesses saw their collateral collapse and thus were unwilling to borrow until their balance sheets were repaired. This process takes time to unwind. Thus, the economy had a shortage of borrowers for 14 years, and the Fed couldn't address the problem by lowering the debt costs. QE did almost nothing to the real economy. But it propped up the collateral.Fundamentally, the last 40 years have been disinflationary. Central Banks around the world expanded the money supply because there was no downside to printing money, as inflation was low and stable. The resulting wealth effects of these policies were massive, and the gap between poor and rich widened.Data by YChartsThe disinflationary environment vanished during the last 1.5 years because of two reasons. Firstly, the interconnection of the expansive fiscal and monetary policy provided a possibility to print money and inject it into the real economy. Secondly, ongoing supply shortages of commodities due to lack of investment during the last decade increased the cost pressures of businesses and consumers, resulting in cost-push inflation. The cost-push inflation now threatens to translate into a price/wage spiral. The Fed was too expansive during the last 14 years without major effects on the real economy. In March 2020, liquidity provision got to absurd levels. No, as the previously printed money arrives in the real economy, the Fed is caught with its pants down. Inflation was always the downside to money printing. But its effects were delayed due to the fundamental shortage of borrowers and absent transmission systems to the real economy.The Fed wants a reverse Wealth EffectThe Fed cannot control the supply shortages which emerged due to missing investments - especially in the energy sector. So, the Fed will try to crack down on the demand side to retake control of the inflation rate. It can achieve the goal of reducing demand most effectively by Quantitative Tightening, which will have the reverse effect of Quantitative Easing: It will devalue the collateral. The Fed hopes for a reverse wealth effect. It wants stock prices to depreciate and hopes it doesn't break the credit market or crush the labor market in the medium term.Due to significant government debt, I believe the Fed will pivot in the future as the credit market gets distressed and inflation eases due to lower demand. But the turning point is still far away at this point. Long-only doesn't work anymore. I believe further downside is coming for global equities, especially the ones at the top of the food chain of all globally diversified ETFs - i.e., the companies with the biggest market capitalizations in the world: American Internet Companies. These are the companies that profited most from Quantitative Easing, and they will be the ones hurt most by Quantitative Tightening.Going long and short in this environment is key if investors want to retain their purchasing power. Gaining purchasing power will be difficult due to inflation, but pair trades offer lower risk because of reduced directional market exposure.Amazon and Alibaba as ProxyBoth Amazon and Alibaba operate mainly in the consumer discretionary segment. Admittedly, the net earnings of Amazon consist of huge contributions from the AWS segment, which is a completely different business with much stronger margins. In that regard, there is a substantial difference in the business models. The Cloud computing segment of Alibaba has just turned towards profitability, and Amazon is much further ahead. However, the revenues of both companies largely stem from E-commerce.More importantly, 60% of all net sales of Amazon are in North America, and 26% constitute international sales. The remaining 14% consists of the cloud segment. Conversely, 74% of the net sales of Alibaba are in China, while 7% constitute international sales. The remaining 19% are cloud and other sales.Why short Amazon?The ongoing Fed tightening cycle is designed to hurt consumer demand in America via the reverse wealth effect. The average consumer in America will spend their income first on consumer staples and then on consumer discretionary items. Because prices of consumer staples items have increased due to cost-push inflation and wages are not responding in a similar manner (yet), the portion left for consumer discretionary spending is reduced. Furthermore, the cost side of Amazon's business increases due to higher energy and shipping costs. Because consumers are unable to spend the same portion of their income on consumer discretionary items, Amazon does not have much pricing power. Therefore the margins of its main business will most likely compress.Currently, Amazon is still one of the biggest companies by market capitalization. The stock profited massively from Quantitative Easing and will be hurt by Quantitative Tightening to a similar degree, as explained above.Because of growth forecasts and ETF inflows, the stock is trading at a high valuation. The P/E (FWD) is currently at 114x. EV/EBITDA (FWD) stands at 16x, and the P/FCF (FWD) is at 17x. If the revenue growth of Amazon decreases further, the stocks could be revalued at a much lower multiple. Currently, Amazon is still expected to grow revenues in 2022 by ~$55 billion (or ~12%). Current EPS estimates point towards a rapid recovery in 2022. I don't believe that is likely to happen.Why long Alibaba?The Chinese macroeconomic environment is currently ahead of the American macroeconomic environment. The Chinese economy suffered a big drawdown due to the mandated lockdowns and COVID restrictions. The China Caixin Manufacturing PMIdroppedto a low of 46 in April and started to reverse in May. Both output and new orders in China fell at a softer rate amid further declines in both export orders and employment. It is likely that the Chinese economy is already through the worst of this economic downturn. From now onwards, consumer spending growth is poised to return to positive territory.Chinese policymakers still have room for accommodative fiscal and monetary policy as the inflation rates remain low. In May 2022, China cut the borrowing rate of the five-year loan prime rate (LPR) by 15 basis points to 4.45% to stimulate the housing market. The People's Bank of China kept the rate on its one-year medium-term lending facility (MLF) at 2.85%. The Chinese policymakers seem hesitant to stimulate the economy in an aggressive way because the Fed is tightening financial conditions at the same time. However, the monetary policy remains neutral in China.In 2021, Alibaba got hit by the Chinese regulatory tech crackdown. Alibaba had to pay a $2.8 billion fine for anti-monopoly violations. The company lost ~50% of its market cap during that time. Financial media and investment banks deemed Chinese Equities to be \"uninvestable\". However, recentlyJPMorganupgraded some Chinese stocks from neutral to overweight in 2022, and many others from underweight to neutral. Other investment banks followed. The Chinese regulators have signaled an easing of the tech crackdown. They have been aware of the VIE loophole for years and have not acted. It is not in China's interest to destroy offshore Chinese companies by challenging the existing VIEs. The VIE risk is now sufficiently priced in, as analysts had talked about it extensively and continue to do so. The worst for Alibaba seems to be over.Because of the selloff, Alibaba trades at significantly lower multiples. The P/E (FWD) is currently at 15x. EV/EBITDA (FWD) stands at 11x, and the P/FCF (FWD) is at 10x. Alibaba is expected to grow revenues in 2022 by only ~$4 billion (or 3%). Current EPS estimates expect stagnant earnings growth for the next four quarters. I believe Alibaba can surprise to the upside.The Charts speak for themselves Data by YChartsThe stock prices of Alibaba and Amazon have correlated strongly during the last few years. However, in late 2020 the stock of Alibaba erased all of its gains since its IPO and fell ~70%. I believe the gap will not widen but begin to close during the next 6-12 months.The TakeawaysRisks to the Pair TradeThe Chinese Crackdown on Internet companies could restart, and complications with Jack Ma and the Chinese Regulators could provide downside to the stock of Alibaba. I believe this risk has a low probability to materialize. If the crackdown continues, why would the Chinese regulators have an interest in signaling easing.The Fed could restart Quantitative Easing and therefore positively affect the market prices. I believe this is very unlikely to happen due to the inflationary pressures that the US is facing. I think at some point in the future a pivot is guaranteed. But I don't expect it in 2022 & early 2023. If the Fed starts to ease the monetary conditions, this pair trade will probably underperform massively.The Chinese recovery could take longer than expected, and Alibaba could have worse quarters ahead. I believe this is the greatest risk in this pair trade since Chinese regulators have taken the Zero-COVID strategy very seriously as opposed to most countries in the west. Recently, there have been partial lockdowns in Shanghai again due to fresh breakouts of the virus. However, sometime in the future, China will have to reopen, Amazon is affected by Chinese lockdowns too, and I believe much of the restrictive COVID policies are priced in.Closing ThoughtsEven with these risks in mind, I believe the downside of Amazon is much larger than the downside of Alibaba. The market expectations for revenue and earnings growth of Amazon in 2022 are not plausible with the current headwinds in mind. I believe Alibaba has a good chance of beating the forecasts, although this pair trade focuses more on the downside potential of both companies than the upside.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":143,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9056202262,"gmtCreate":1655011996756,"gmtModify":1676535548592,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3579245419278799","idStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Baba","listText":"Baba","text":"Baba","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9056202262","repostId":"2242306965","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2242306965","pubTimestamp":1655005845,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2242306965?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-12 11:50","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Alibaba: Fear Of Missing Out?

It is evident that the recovery has been swift, given the multiple positive tailwinds in its direction. However, with the shaky Chinese stock market, it is uncertain if the gains could hold and trigger a bull run for BABA.However, if we were to split up China's unrelenting COVID-19 strategies and the potential easing of big tech punishment, BABA's recovery is almost certain, given its good execution in FQ4'22. That would be one highly welcomed news, given how dreary the stock market looks right now, given that BABA had recovered 28.04% of its value in the past month compared to S&P 500 Index at 0.42%. Opportune investors would be well advised to take advantage of the current bear market to add more undervalued stocks to their portfolios, since it is entirely possible that the time of maximum pain is over.Nevertheless, investors hoping for the revival of ANT IPO would definitely be disappointed, since the Chinese government denied the news report, leading to a -8.13% stock decline from $119.62 on 8 June 2022.BABA Closed Off FY2022 Beautifully Despite Macro IssuesBABA Revenue and Gross IncomeS&P Capital IQIn FQ4'22, BABA reported revenues of $32.18B, representing excellent YoY growth of 12.51%, despite the enforced lockdowns in multiple Chinese cities. Though the company's declining gross margins may worry some investors, we could attribute it partly to the inflation caused by global supply chain issues and China's Zero Covid Policy and reinvestments into its businesses, and therefore, temporary.BABA Revenue By SegmentS&P Capital IQIt is evident that BABA's e-commerce segment continues to be the revenue driver, with 13.1% YoY growth while accounting for the majority of its revenue at 86.6%. Its cloud segment also reported remarkable growth with an increase of 16.7% increase YoY, despite the impact of COVID restrictions and reduced demand from the tech industry.BABA Net Income and Net Income MarginS&P Capital IQBABA's net income also grew from -$0.82B in FQ4'21 to $0.45B in FQ4'22, thereby improving its net income margins YoY from -2.9% to 2.8%, respectively.BABA Cash/ Equivalents, FCF, and FCF MarginsS&P Capital IQNonetheless, it is also apparent that the generation of BABA's previously robust free cash flows is declining, given the decreasing profitability and its payment towards the Anti-monopoly fine at approximately $1.36B. However, since the latter represents the final payment towards the Chinese government, we may expect improved FCF from FQ1'23 onwards.BABA Operating ExpenseS&P Capital IQGiven BABA's continuous efforts to improve its operating efficiencies by cutting jobs in March 2022 and enhancing its logistical costs, we may also see improved operating margins moving ahead. We can see hints of these improvements in FQ4'22, where the company spent $7.19B in its operating expenses in FQ4'22, representing a 25% decrease QoQ in R&D, Selling/Marketing, and General/Administrative expenses. Assuming that BABA continues on this cost reduction path, we are confident of BABA's capabilities in improving its profitability moving forward.BABA Projected Revenue and Net IncomeS&P Capital IQSince our previous analysis in May 2022, BABA's revenue growth has been upgraded from a CAGR of 7.09% to 9.33%, though its net income is projected to grow even faster from a CAGR of 38.94% to 56.53%. For FY2023, consensus estimates also upgraded its revenue growth to 3.62% YoY, thereby underlining their optimistic view on the recovery of BABA stock and the overall Chinese market. Assuming the stabilization of the Chinese economy as per the government's intention with a GDP target of 5.5%, we could potentially see an upwards rerating of BABA's projected revenue and net income growth moving forward. We shall see.So, Is BABA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?BABA 5Y EV/Revenue and P/E ValuationsS&P Capital IQBABA is currently trading at an EV/NTM Revenue of 1.92x and NTM P/E of 14.73x, lower than its 5Y mean of 6.29x and 25.10x, respectively. The stock is also trading at $109.90, down 52.4% from its 52 weeks high of $230.89, though already at a 49.9% premium from its 52 weeks low of $73.28.BABA 5Y Stock PriceSeeking AlphaNonetheless, given the consensus estimates price target of $170.89 for BABA, investors who add now would still have a 55.5% upside from current prices. It is also evident from the chart that its pre-pandemic prices stand at $170s before rallying to over $300 during the ANT IPO hype.Therefore, it is not too late to back up the truck and load up on BABA now.Therefore, we rate BABA stock as a Buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":70,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9058746605,"gmtCreate":1654907607407,"gmtModify":1676535531046,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3579245419278799","idStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👌&nbsp;","listText":"👌&nbsp;","text":"👌","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9058746605","repostId":"2242306963","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":132,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9051517644,"gmtCreate":1654727554588,"gmtModify":1676535496915,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3579245419278799","idStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Thanks","listText":"Thanks","text":"Thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9051517644","repostId":"1141902851","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1141902851","pubTimestamp":1654701592,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1141902851?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-08 23:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Top-Quality Growth Stocks To Buy Now And Hold For The Long Term","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1141902851","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryThe market has punished growth stocks very hard, but it often pays to go against the herd at ","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Summary</p><ul><li>The market has punished growth stocks very hard, but it often pays to go against the herd at such times.</li><li>Focusing on profitability and valuation is more important in such an environment, but you should do that properly for growth stocks.</li><li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRWD\">CrowdStrike</a> has a FCF margin of 27% and continues to grow fast.

There is a lot of negativity out there, about themarkets in general and the economy.</p><p>Many already are fully convinced that we are heading for a recession. While this is possible, up to now, there are no signs yet. The Fed&#39;s Beige Book last week showed that 8 of the 12 Districts expect slowing growth in the future but at the moment, but just 3 thought there would be a recession coming. But all 12 still see growth right now. If a recession is not coming, we will see a great upswing in stock prices. But even if there will be a recession, a lot of that has already priced in. If it&#39;s a severe recession, there could of course be more downside, that&#39;s for sure, but that&#39;s also why I always scale in slowly over time, over years.</p><p>Because the markets (and interest rates) have changed, I think it&#39;s important to emphasize profitability more now. But, of course, we still look at the future and that&#39;s why you may be surprised that I still pick some &#34;expensive&#34; stocks. You&#39;ll see my reasoning, though.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRWD\">CrowdStrike</a></p><p>CrowdStrike (CRWD) is a cybersecurity company that works through a cloud platform. Its competitive advantage is that it has a lightweight agent that makes sure your computer (or any other endpoint) doesn&#39;t slow down and you don&#39;t even have to reboot for installation or updates. It expands its Falcon platform very fast with new products and as a result, its dollar-based net retention rate is very high at more than 120% in every quarter since its IPO.</p><p>There is sometimes confusion between dollar-based net retention and dollar-based net expansion, therefore a fast explanation. You take your full set of customers at the end of Q1 2021 and you see what they spend. Let&#39;s say $100M to make it easy. With a dollar-based net retention rate, DBNRR, you measure how much the same customers spend right now, including customers that went away or went belly-up.</p><p>For a DBNRR of 120%, your customers have to spend 20% more than they did last year, even if you include the ones that are not customers anymore. For dollar-based net<i>expansion</i>rate, you only count the dollar amount of those who staid as customers. Net expansion rates make sense for companies where there are a lot of temporary customers, like political campaigners using Twilio (TWLO), for example. With net expansion numbers, you can have 120% and still see negative revenue growth and that&#39;s why DBNRR numbers are much clearer and it&#39;s so impressive that CrowdStrike has been seeing such high numbers.</p><p>The stock had held up pretty well even during this growth crash, as it&#39;s a fantastic company. But right now, it&#39;s down 42% from its highs, after being down more than 50% a few weeks ago.</p><p>Could the stock drop more? Of course, that&#39;s always possible. It still trades at a forward PS ratio (price to sales) of 15. In this environment, that is a premium. But unlike a lot of other companies, it&#39;s highly profitable. It had a Free Cash Flow of $604.3M in the trailing twelve months.</p><p>With a current market cap of almost $40B, that means that CrowdStrike still trades at a price to free cash flow level of about 65 times. Not cheap, of course, but you have to look at the company&#39;s growth profile here.</p><p>What I mean is that CrowdStrike had a free-cash-flow margin of 37% over the trailing twelve months. So I think the company can generate stable FCF of around 35% to 40%.</p><p>Looking at the earnings estimates for the next five years, you see that CrowdStrike is estimated to have $6.65B of revenue in 2026 (reporting in January 2027).</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f9f068c6fed5fb8d367341eb391627c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"132\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>With the company constantly beating the earnings, I think it&#39;s safe to say that it will be higher. Take $7B (and even that is still conservative). That would mean FCF between $2.5B and $2.8B. The 5-year P/FCF looks to be in the range of 10.7 and 12 then, and that for a company expected to grow for much longer at high speed.</p><p>If you want to put that in perspective, PepsiCo (PEP), a stable stalwart, had $6.3B of FCF on total revenue of $79.5B last year. That&#39;s an FCF margin of 8%. It trades at an estimated 2026 FCF multiple of around 30 times, much higher than CrowdStrike.</p><p>Which stock is expensive for long-term investors, then? Pepsi is just a random example that I took and I have nothing against the company. There are also dividends and buybacks involved, but I think that this shows you the context that what can look expensive by one metric (PS ratio) doesn&#39;t necessarily mean it is expensive for long-term investors.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DDOG\">Datadog</a></p><p>Datadog (DDOG) is an observability platform. The software and hardware systems of companies become much more complex and you have to know exactly where something goes wrong or it&#39;s not 100% efficient. You could call what Datadog does Monitoring-as-a-Service. The company has innovated fast over the years. It started with infrastructure and the company added APM (app performance management) and logs, making it the first fully-functioning platform to unite these. It kept expanding its offerings with User Experience Monitoring and Security.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5628150f152a4438ce42d101a4e07106\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"333\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Datadog is also very free-cash-flow positive. In the trailing twelve months, it had $347.8M of FCF.</p><p>And the numbers are growing fast. These are the four last quarters:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec20e9c931f682f5a4295baf9f981a8a\" tg-width=\"587\" tg-height=\"34\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>In the last quarter, Datadog had $363M in revenue. $126.3M divided by $363M means that Datadog has an FCF margin of 35%.</p><p>The consensus estimate for 2026 revenue is $5.56B.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e263e219b0065b9a38112ae581660db1\" tg-width=\"623\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>With Datadog&#39;s outperformance, I think $6B is definitely possible. If you take an FCF margin of 40% there, you get $2.4B. With a current market cap of around $27B, this means that the stock is trading at a 2026 FCF multiple estimates of around 11. I&#39;m a buyer here.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ROKU\">Roku</a></p><p>I&#39;m sure several readers will be surprised to see Roku (ROKU) here. Many have already given up on Roku, and I have heard so much negativity, including that it&#39;s a &#39;money-losing&#39; company. Google (GOOGL) (GOOG) would crush Roku! Well, it didn&#39;t. Google and Roku made a deal about both YouTube TV and YouTube in Q4 2021. Amazon (AMZN) would crush it! Well, it didn&#39;t. Amazon and Roku made a new deal about Amazon Prime and IMDb TV a few weeks ago.</p><p>Roku is much more powerful than most investors realize. You can&#39;t just ignore such a huge part of the American households. But in the meantime, the stock is down more than 80%, as if it&#39;s a failing company.</p><p>On top of that, Roku is now the #1 streaming platform in Canada andin Mexicoand it hasovertakenSamsung as the #1 in Latin America.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9990a5f49f8ba33d63936a98453cd85c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"359\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>52% of Americans that have CTV are on the Roku platform, according toe-marketerand that number keeps growing.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3bf9a98d068c5dc455efb9a228bf7eba\" tg-width=\"510\" tg-height=\"475\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>e-marketer</span></p><p>Amazon&#39;s Fire has a market share of 45% and Apple TV (AAPL) 13%. Yes, that&#39;s above 100% because quite a lot of people own several devices. When you look at streaming hours, Roku has 42% of the American market, while the number 2, Amazon Fire, only has 18%, so that&#39;s a big difference there.</p><p>I think a lot of people misjudge Roku, especially with how Netflix (NFLX) is struggling. But for Roku, it doesn&#39;t matter which content provider wins. Even more, now that Netflix considers having an ad-supported option, Roku could benefit from its former mother company. On top of that, Roku makes its own content or buys it for The Roku Channel, which it can monetize. Roku has shown that it can do this on the cheap. It acquired the bankrupt Quibi for what was rumored to be less than $100M. If that is true, they have probably made that money back very fast and then some.</p><p>In the trailing twelve months, Roku had an FCF of $403.2M.</p><p>With a current market cap of $12B, Roku trades at only 29.5 times its TTM FCF. With total sales of $2.9B in the same period, Roku has FCF margins of around 14%. These are the revenue estimates for the next few years:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b90b9e1ae3e8398abc85c6ffd2a69d2b\" tg-width=\"482\" tg-height=\"159\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Let&#39;s be conservative and take $7.6B indeed, because Roku suffers from supply chain issues that probably won&#39;t be solved soon. Let&#39;s take a conservative 15% FCF margin for 2026 on that revenue. That&#39;s conservative because Roku gets 14% now under these very challenging circumstances. That means $1.15B in FCF for 2026 or just 10 times its current market cap.</p><p>Yes, there are supply chain issues right now for Roku, but there&#39;s also still a lot of potential for further growth..</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Again, I want to stress that I&#39;m not a market timer and I scale in very slowly.

While its valuation looks expensive, looking forward, it's not outrageous.Datadog has a FCF margin of 34% and is similar to CrowdStrike. It can definitely grow into its valuation fast.Maybe somewhat more surprising to some readers, Roku has a FCF margin of 15%, even with the supply-chain issues. It's the CTV leader in the US, Canada, Mexico and Latam and is already cheap now.IntroductionWhen the markets turn, you often see a lot of investors following the herd but it often pays to do exactly the opposite, although that may feel very uncomfortable over the short term. There is a lot of negativity out there, about themarkets in general and the economy.Many already are fully convinced that we are heading for a recession. While this is possible, up to now, there are no signs yet. The Fed's Beige Book last week showed that 8 of the 12 Districts expect slowing growth in the future but at the moment, but just 3 thought there would be a recession coming. But all 12 still see growth right now. If a recession is not coming, we will see a great upswing in stock prices. But even if there will be a recession, a lot of that has already priced in. If it's a severe recession, there could of course be more downside, that's for sure, but that's also why I always scale in slowly over time, over years.Because the markets (and interest rates) have changed, I think it's important to emphasize profitability more now. But, of course, we still look at the future and that's why you may be surprised that I still pick some \"expensive\" stocks. You'll see my reasoning, though.CrowdStrikeCrowdStrike (CRWD) is a cybersecurity company that works through a cloud platform. Its competitive advantage is that it has a lightweight agent that makes sure your computer (or any other endpoint) doesn't slow down and you don't even have to reboot for installation or updates. It expands its Falcon platform very fast with new products and as a result, its dollar-based net retention rate is very high at more than 120% in every quarter since its IPO.There is sometimes confusion between dollar-based net retention and dollar-based net expansion, therefore a fast explanation. You take your full set of customers at the end of Q1 2021 and you see what they spend. Let's say $100M to make it easy. With a dollar-based net retention rate, DBNRR, you measure how much the same customers spend right now, including customers that went away or went belly-up.For a DBNRR of 120%, your customers have to spend 20% more than they did last year, even if you include the ones that are not customers anymore. For dollar-based netexpansionrate, you only count the dollar amount of those who staid as customers. Net expansion rates make sense for companies where there are a lot of temporary customers, like political campaigners using Twilio (TWLO), for example. With net expansion numbers, you can have 120% and still see negative revenue growth and that's why DBNRR numbers are much clearer and it's so impressive that CrowdStrike has been seeing such high numbers.The stock had held up pretty well even during this growth crash, as it's a fantastic company. But right now, it's down 42% from its highs, after being down more than 50% a few weeks ago.Could the stock drop more? Of course, that's always possible. It still trades at a forward PS ratio (price to sales) of 15. In this environment, that is a premium. But unlike a lot of other companies, it's highly profitable. It had a Free Cash Flow of $604.3M in the trailing twelve months.With a current market cap of almost $40B, that means that CrowdStrike still trades at a price to free cash flow level of about 65 times. Not cheap, of course, but you have to look at the company's growth profile here.What I mean is that CrowdStrike had a free-cash-flow margin of 37% over the trailing twelve months. So I think the company can generate stable FCF of around 35% to 40%.Looking at the earnings estimates for the next five years, you see that CrowdStrike is estimated to have $6.65B of revenue in 2026 (reporting in January 2027).With the company constantly beating the earnings, I think it's safe to say that it will be higher. Take $7B (and even that is still conservative). That would mean FCF between $2.5B and $2.8B. The 5-year P/FCF looks to be in the range of 10.7 and 12 then, and that for a company expected to grow for much longer at high speed.If you want to put that in perspective, PepsiCo (PEP), a stable stalwart, had $6.3B of FCF on total revenue of $79.5B last year. That's an FCF margin of 8%. It trades at an estimated 2026 FCF multiple of around 30 times, much higher than CrowdStrike.Which stock is expensive for long-term investors, then? Pepsi is just a random example that I took and I have nothing against the company. There are also dividends and buybacks involved, but I think that this shows you the context that what can look expensive by one metric (PS ratio) doesn't necessarily mean it is expensive for long-term investors.DatadogDatadog (DDOG) is an observability platform. The software and hardware systems of companies become much more complex and you have to know exactly where something goes wrong or it's not 100% efficient. You could call what Datadog does Monitoring-as-a-Service. The company has innovated fast over the years. It started with infrastructure and the company added APM (app performance management) and logs, making it the first fully-functioning platform to unite these. It kept expanding its offerings with User Experience Monitoring and Security.Datadog is also very free-cash-flow positive. In the trailing twelve months, it had $347.8M of FCF.And the numbers are growing fast. These are the four last quarters:In the last quarter, Datadog had $363M in revenue. $126.3M divided by $363M means that Datadog has an FCF margin of 35%.The consensus estimate for 2026 revenue is $5.56B.With Datadog's outperformance, I think $6B is definitely possible. If you take an FCF margin of 40% there, you get $2.4B. With a current market cap of around $27B, this means that the stock is trading at a 2026 FCF multiple estimates of around 11. I'm a buyer here.RokuI'm sure several readers will be surprised to see Roku (ROKU) here. Many have already given up on Roku, and I have heard so much negativity, including that it's a 'money-losing' company. Google (GOOGL) (GOOG) would crush Roku! Well, it didn't. Google and Roku made a deal about both YouTube TV and YouTube in Q4 2021. Amazon (AMZN) would crush it! Well, it didn't. Amazon and Roku made a new deal about Amazon Prime and IMDb TV a few weeks ago.Roku is much more powerful than most investors realize. You can't just ignore such a huge part of the American households. But in the meantime, the stock is down more than 80%, as if it's a failing company.On top of that, Roku is now the #1 streaming platform in Canada andin Mexicoand it hasovertakenSamsung as the #1 in Latin America.52% of Americans that have CTV are on the Roku platform, according toe-marketerand that number keeps growing.e-marketerAmazon's Fire has a market share of 45% and Apple TV (AAPL) 13%. Yes, that's above 100% because quite a lot of people own several devices. When you look at streaming hours, Roku has 42% of the American market, while the number 2, Amazon Fire, only has 18%, so that's a big difference there.I think a lot of people misjudge Roku, especially with how Netflix (NFLX) is struggling. But for Roku, it doesn't matter which content provider wins. Even more, now that Netflix considers having an ad-supported option, Roku could benefit from its former mother company. On top of that, Roku makes its own content or buys it for The Roku Channel, which it can monetize. Roku has shown that it can do this on the cheap. It acquired the bankrupt Quibi for what was rumored to be less than $100M. If that is true, they have probably made that money back very fast and then some.In the trailing twelve months, Roku had an FCF of $403.2M.With a current market cap of $12B, Roku trades at only 29.5 times its TTM FCF. With total sales of $2.9B in the same period, Roku has FCF margins of around 14%. These are the revenue estimates for the next few years:Let's be conservative and take $7.6B indeed, because Roku suffers from supply chain issues that probably won't be solved soon. Let's take a conservative 15% FCF margin for 2026 on that revenue. That's conservative because Roku gets 14% now under these very challenging circumstances. That means $1.15B in FCF for 2026 or just 10 times its current market cap.Yes, there are supply chain issues right now for Roku, but there's also still a lot of potential for further growth..ConclusionAgain, I want to stress that I'm not a market timer and I scale in very slowly. Yes, these stocks can always drop more, no matter how much they have fallen already. I invest money every two weeks and I have ramped up that biweekly contribution recently. This environment is precisely when dollar-cost averaging can be at its most powerful!Of course, there have been a lot of bad companies that have been subsidized by easy money and now, when the tide goes out, we can see who was swimming naked, to paraphrase Warren Buffett. But companies that dominate their growing industries and are free-cash-flow positive while they also keep growing their revenue at a fast rate are of high quality.In the meantime, keep growing!","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":239,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9051062336,"gmtCreate":1654610633425,"gmtModify":1676535477772,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3579245419278799","idStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy in","listText":"Buy in","text":"Buy in","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9051062336","repostId":"2241923094","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2241923094","pubTimestamp":1654568322,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2241923094?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-07 10:18","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba: One Of The Best Buying Opportunity As Worst Is Likely Over","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2241923094","media":"Seekingalpha","summary":"For a company like Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) with sentiment at all time lows, the co","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>For a company like Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) with sentiment at all time lows, the company&#39;s recent release 4Q22 results was a positive surprise for investors. I looked into the recent quarter and was pleasantly surprised that there were signs of improvement and that the worst is likely over for Alibaba.</p><h2>Investment thesis</h2><p>I have written two deep dive articles into Alibaba that you can read further to learn more about the business as well as the regulatory risks of the company. My investment thesis remains as I continue to see Alibaba as currently <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the better risk/reward opportunities out there due to the following factors:</p><p>1. China commerce: One of the most valuable assets Alibaba has is its huge consumer base of 1 billion users and spends $1,300 annually, which can bring about further monetization or help scale its other newer platforms.</p><p>2. International commerce: This business is a low hanging fruit for Alibaba as it has a replicable strategy and strong moat, as well as logistics capabilities to compete with international e-commerce brands in international markets.</p><p>3. Cloud: Alibaba will likely remain the leader in a fast growing cloud market in China and continue to look out for international markets to grow in. Furthermore, its in-house production of chips and development of OS could bring about further cost efficiencies and better products while reducing reliance on third party suppliers.</p><p>4. Investing for growth in the future: Alibaba is reinvesting its incremental profits into its strategic businesses which, in my view, is necessary to ensure Alibaba is able to compete and win competitors. Also, Alibaba is continuing its mergers and acquisitions strategy to acquire new businesses to capture future opportunities or bring value to existing businesses.</p><h2>Cloud computing achieves scale and positive adjusted EBITDA margins</h2><p>For the cloud computing segment, it reported revenues of Rmb19 billion in 4Q22, which representing 12% growth year on year. This was compared to the prior quarter&#39;s growth of 20% year-on-year and prior year&#39;s growth of 38% year-on-year. The slowdown is due to weakness in certain sectors, slowing economic activities, and the company&#39;s strategic focus on higher quality revenues.</p><p>In particular, the weakness came from the internet industries like online education and entertainment. According to management, the cloud computing revenue growth would have been 15% year-on-year if the revenues from its top customer in the internet industry, Bytedance were excluded. According to management, Bytedance apparently stopped using Alibaba&#39;s overseas cloud services for its international business due to requirements that are non-product related.</p><p>As a result of weakness in the internet sector, the revenue contribution from non-internet industries increased to 52% as several sectors like telecommunications, retailing and financials reported strong growth to offset the weakness in the internet industry.</p><p>On the margins front, the cloud computing segment posted positive 1% adjusted EBITDA margins in 4Q22, compared to -2% adjusted EBITDA margins one year ago. This was attributable to the gradual improvement in economies of scale for the business, as well as better loss control for Dingtalk. Management also expects that margins for the cloud computing business to continue to improve in FY2023 as top line growth continues. In my view, the margins profile of Alibaba&#39;s cloud computing segment is at a pivotal moment for the business as it transitions towards positive adjusted EBITDA margins with improving economies of scale.</p><p>I think that is is also encouraging to see that management continues to see the long term potential in the cloud industry and Alibaba&#39;s cloud segment despite the near term blip. Management believes that the cloud industry can grow 2 to 3 times in the long run to reach Rmb1 trillion in the next few years. This comes as the cloud plays a key role for the development of the economy and for digital transformation. With that, the focus for Alibaba on the cloud computing sector is crucial, and management believe that Alibaba needs to cater to the differing needs of different sectors to be able to leverage on this huge opportunity in the long run. In my view, the other positive is that this will continue to drive top line growth and with the cloud revenues of the entire company already exceeding Rmb100 billion in the last fiscal year, this translates to huge economies of scale and potential for cost reduction and efficiency improvement that will further drive upside to cloud computing margins in the near term.</p><h2>China Commerce</h2><p>Revenues from the China Commerce segment grew 7% year on year to RMB 136 billion. There was a low teens year-on-year decline in GMV in April and management sees that there are signs of improvement in May. The total FY2022 GMV in China Commerce grew by 2% year on year.</p><p>Alibaba continued to grow on the user front. China commerce Annual Active Consumers (AAC) reached 903million, up 21 million users from the previous quarter and up 89 million users from a year ago. Notably, of these increases, 70% are from less-developed areas. This is in line with Alibaba&#39;s push toward rural and less developed customers to grow its customer base.</p><p>Specifically, we are seeing growth in Taobao Deals and Taocaicai. Taobao Deals AACs grew to more than 300 million, adding 20 million users in the quarter while paid orders on Taobao Deals grew 35% year on year in the current quarter. In addition, Taocaicai, Alibaba&#39;s community market place catered to lower tier cities and rural areas continued to grow AACs to more than 90 million and more than 50% of these were first time fresh produce buyers on Alibaba. Also, Taocaicai GMV continued to expand in the last quarter due to improving average order values.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6a5116cae604fa82f39a0a9a4cc54255\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"347\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Alibaba recorded robust user growth compared to peers (QuestMobile; Goldman)</p><p>While there were low single-digit declines in Taobao and Small online physical goods GMV, the customer management revenues (CMR) remained stable year on year. This was due to some offset by positive growth in advertising revenues.</p><p>EBITDA declined RMB 7 billion to Rmb 32 billion, representing an EBITDA margin of 23%. This decline in EBITDA margins was due to the drag from Taocaicai and Taobao Deals as management invests in these relatively higher growths and newer businesses. In addition, Sun Art reported an RMB 1.4 billion loss, most of it due to an asset impairment provision.</p><p>Management remains committed to improving efficiency and narrowing losses for Taobao Deals. Furthermore, management has been more disciplined in investment pace for Taocaicai to reduce its impact on margins to the group. It has done so by choosing certain target cities where it aims to improve order density and thus focus on establishing regional warehouses and infrastructure in these cities. Thus, the focus will be more on high-quality growth for the Taocaicai business.</p><p>In addition, in my view, the combined losses from both Taobao Deals and Taocaicai has likely peaked in December 2021 and saw sequential declines in losses in the current quarter. I think we will continue to expect the combined losses to decline as management continued to focus on higher-quality growth for China&#39;s commerce segment.</p><h2>International Commerce</h2><p>Revenues from international commerce grew by 7% year on year as AACs grew by 4 million compared to the prior quarter, and 64 million when compared to the prior year. There was a growth of 32% and 48% year on year respectively for Lazada and Trendyol while AliExpress saw a decline in order volume. This was due to the changes in EU&#39;s VAT rules and supply chain/logistics disruptions due to Russia-Ukraine conflict, as highlighted by management. International commerce segment&#39;s adjusted EBITDA margin remained stable at -18% as the company continues to spend on marketing and promotions to increase user engagement and acquisition.</p><p>International commerce remains to be one of Alibaba&#39;s key growth drivers to tap on less mature e-commerce markets outside of China. While there could be near term competition from other e-commerce companies like Amazon (AMZN) and Shopee, which is owned by Sea Limited (SE), Alibaba&#39;s international commerce can still ride the wave of increasing e-commerce penetration in these markets and post higher long term average growth rates than in the mature China Commerce segment.</p><h3>Local Consumer Services</h3><p>As for the local consumer services segment, revenues grew to Rmb 10 billion, up 29% year on year. Ele.me, Alibaba&#39;s online food delivery platform, continued to show improvement in unit economics and is reaching near break-even due to improvements in the delivery cost per order as well as the company reducing spend on user acquisitions.</p><p>As Ele.me continues to scale, its unit economics improvement, as well as the cost reductions made by management will continue to contribute to bottom-line growth for the Group.</p><h2>Stringent cost control and improving regulatory environment</h2><p>Management continues to be committed to add value by assessing the areas of its business where there can be further improvement in efficiencies and to reduce costs to make the entire cost structure of the business more nimble and lean. Some of these control in costs includes stringent control over sales and marketing expenses. This, in my view, is positive for Alibaba as the near term may prove challenging with top-line slowing, and management&#39;s efforts to provide long term shareholder value through cost efficiencies will be appreciated by the market.</p><p>The regulatory landscape also seems to be improving, adding to the signs that the worst could be over for Alibaba. In the recent State Council meeting, the government is rolling out supportive measures, some of which are beneficial to Alibaba&#39;s business, including stimulating consumption and the commitment to the recovery of supply chains. Also, management commented that the government shared a clear message to the market to encourage the healthy development of platform economies and that management is fully compliant with all the regulatory requirements and continues to watch for any new development in policies on the anti-trust front. I think this shows that the government is sending a message that it will not clamp down too much on platform companies, but rather continues to see the benefits of the healthy development of platform companies for the economy.</p><h2>Valuation</h2><p>I have previously shared my financial model for Alibaba and derived a target price based on its sum of the parts valuation. I forecasted the financials and used a DCF model for most of its businesses except Cainiao, local services and its associates/investments since these businesses are mostly either private or have limited public information. I used rather conservative forecasts, in my view and also applied a holding company discount of 25%, with other assumptions listed in the table below. Based on the SOTP valuation, I have derived a target price of $164 for Alibaba, representing an upside potential of 76% from current levels.</p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/59dd22bdbd3f84c78b77c121135b860d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"387\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Alibaba target price based on SOTP (Author generated)</p><p>Based on relative valuation, Alibaba now trades at 12x and 9x 2023F and 2024F P/E respectively, while average earnings growth over the 2-year period is expected to be 15%, implying a PEG of 0.8x.</p><h2>Risks</h2><h3>Competition</h3><p>While Alibaba might be the largest player in China, there are risks that competition could threaten Alibaba&#39;s market share in both China and in overseas markets. In China, it has to compete against prominent rivals like JD.com (JD) and Pinduoduo (PDD) in a rather mature e-commerce market. As for its international commerce segment, they face competition from international players like Amazon and Shopee, as highlighted earlier. Competitive pressure from both local and international players could slow GMV and user growth for Alibaba compared to expectations.</p><h3>Regulatory and political risks</h3><p>Alibaba is one of the worst-hit companies hit by the regulatory crackdown. However, I am of the view that we have seen the worst of the regulatory crackdown and the government is signalling easing of regulatory pressures, which I think are necessary for the government to improve its economy amidst its zero-covid policy. As such, the worst is likely over for Alibaba as most of the regulatory pressures have eased and we could start seeing better times for the company.</p><h3>Execution in investments</h3><p>Alibaba management has renewed focus on investing in key strategic areas in its business as mentioned earlier. However, this will come down to execution as Alibaba seeks to gain share in these areas. If execution were to be weak, ideal results of the heavy investments may not materialize.</p><h3>Cloud risks</h3><p>There is risk that Alibaba&#39;s cloud revenue growth could slow down given that there is competition from Huawei, Tencent and China Telecom. If Alibaba is unable to maintain market leadership in cloud, this could affect economies of scale effects that it currently enjoys.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>I think this presents one of the best buying opportunities for Alibaba as the worst is likely over for the company. Looking beyond 2023F earnings, the business is expected to continue to grow in the 20% to 30% range and the current valuation simply just does not price in this long term potential. I think we could continue to see positive surprises for Alibaba in the next few quarters as it surpasses the very low expectations set by the market. My target price for Alibaba based on a SOTP valuation model is $164, implying 76% upside potential from current levels.</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>Alibaba: One Of The Best Buying Opportunity As Worst Is Likely Over</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nAlibaba: One Of The Best Buying Opportunity As Worst Is Likely Over\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-07 10:18 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4516754-alibaba-one-of-the-best-buying-opportunity-as-worst-is-likely-over><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>For a company like Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) with sentiment at all time lows, the company's recent release 4Q22 results was a positive surprise for investors.

I looked into the recent quarter and was pleasantly surprised that there were signs of improvement and that the worst is likely over for Alibaba.Investment thesisI have written two deep dive articles into Alibaba that you can read further to learn more about the business as well as the regulatory risks of the company. My investment thesis remains as I continue to see Alibaba as currently one of the better risk/reward opportunities out there due to the following factors:1. China commerce: One of the most valuable assets Alibaba has is its huge consumer base of 1 billion users and spends $1,300 annually, which can bring about further monetization or help scale its other newer platforms.2. International commerce: This business is a low hanging fruit for Alibaba as it has a replicable strategy and strong moat, as well as logistics capabilities to compete with international e-commerce brands in international markets.3. Cloud: Alibaba will likely remain the leader in a fast growing cloud market in China and continue to look out for international markets to grow in. Furthermore, its in-house production of chips and development of OS could bring about further cost efficiencies and better products while reducing reliance on third party suppliers.4. Investing for growth in the future: Alibaba is reinvesting its incremental profits into its strategic businesses which, in my view, is necessary to ensure Alibaba is able to compete and win competitors. Also, Alibaba is continuing its mergers and acquisitions strategy to acquire new businesses to capture future opportunities or bring value to existing businesses.Cloud computing achieves scale and positive adjusted EBITDA marginsFor the cloud computing segment, it reported revenues of Rmb19 billion in 4Q22, which representing 12% growth year on year. This was compared to the prior quarter's growth of 20% year-on-year and prior year's growth of 38% year-on-year. The slowdown is due to weakness in certain sectors, slowing economic activities, and the company's strategic focus on higher quality revenues.In particular, the weakness came from the internet industries like online education and entertainment. According to management, the cloud computing revenue growth would have been 15% year-on-year if the revenues from its top customer in the internet industry, Bytedance were excluded. According to management, Bytedance apparently stopped using Alibaba's overseas cloud services for its international business due to requirements that are non-product related.As a result of weakness in the internet sector, the revenue contribution from non-internet industries increased to 52% as several sectors like telecommunications, retailing and financials reported strong growth to offset the weakness in the internet industry.On the margins front, the cloud computing segment posted positive 1% adjusted EBITDA margins in 4Q22, compared to -2% adjusted EBITDA margins one year ago. This was attributable to the gradual improvement in economies of scale for the business, as well as better loss control for Dingtalk. Management also expects that margins for the cloud computing business to continue to improve in FY2023 as top line growth continues. In my view, the margins profile of Alibaba's cloud computing segment is at a pivotal moment for the business as it transitions towards positive adjusted EBITDA margins with improving economies of scale.I think that is is also encouraging to see that management continues to see the long term potential in the cloud industry and Alibaba's cloud segment despite the near term blip. Management believes that the cloud industry can grow 2 to 3 times in the long run to reach Rmb1 trillion in the next few years. This comes as the cloud plays a key role for the development of the economy and for digital transformation. With that, the focus for Alibaba on the cloud computing sector is crucial, and management believe that Alibaba needs to cater to the differing needs of different sectors to be able to leverage on this huge opportunity in the long run. In my view, the other positive is that this will continue to drive top line growth and with the cloud revenues of the entire company already exceeding Rmb100 billion in the last fiscal year, this translates to huge economies of scale and potential for cost reduction and efficiency improvement that will further drive upside to cloud computing margins in the near term.China CommerceRevenues from the China Commerce segment grew 7% year on year to RMB 136 billion. There was a low teens year-on-year decline in GMV in April and management sees that there are signs of improvement in May. The total FY2022 GMV in China Commerce grew by 2% year on year.Alibaba continued to grow on the user front. China commerce Annual Active Consumers (AAC) reached 903million, up 21 million users from the previous quarter and up 89 million users from a year ago. Notably, of these increases, 70% are from less-developed areas. This is in line with Alibaba's push toward rural and less developed customers to grow its customer base.Specifically, we are seeing growth in Taobao Deals and Taocaicai. Taobao Deals AACs grew to more than 300 million, adding 20 million users in the quarter while paid orders on Taobao Deals grew 35% year on year in the current quarter. In addition, Taocaicai, Alibaba's community market place catered to lower tier cities and rural areas continued to grow AACs to more than 90 million and more than 50% of these were first time fresh produce buyers on Alibaba. Also, Taocaicai GMV continued to expand in the last quarter due to improving average order values.Alibaba recorded robust user growth compared to peers (QuestMobile; Goldman)While there were low single-digit declines in Taobao and Small online physical goods GMV, the customer management revenues (CMR) remained stable year on year. This was due to some offset by positive growth in advertising revenues.EBITDA declined RMB 7 billion to Rmb 32 billion, representing an EBITDA margin of 23%. This decline in EBITDA margins was due to the drag from Taocaicai and Taobao Deals as management invests in these relatively higher growths and newer businesses. In addition, Sun Art reported an RMB 1.4 billion loss, most of it due to an asset impairment provision.Management remains committed to improving efficiency and narrowing losses for Taobao Deals. Furthermore, management has been more disciplined in investment pace for Taocaicai to reduce its impact on margins to the group. It has done so by choosing certain target cities where it aims to improve order density and thus focus on establishing regional warehouses and infrastructure in these cities. Thus, the focus will be more on high-quality growth for the Taocaicai business.In addition, in my view, the combined losses from both Taobao Deals and Taocaicai has likely peaked in December 2021 and saw sequential declines in losses in the current quarter. I think we will continue to expect the combined losses to decline as management continued to focus on higher-quality growth for China's commerce segment.International CommerceRevenues from international commerce grew by 7% year on year as AACs grew by 4 million compared to the prior quarter, and 64 million when compared to the prior year. There was a growth of 32% and 48% year on year respectively for Lazada and Trendyol while AliExpress saw a decline in order volume. This was due to the changes in EU's VAT rules and supply chain/logistics disruptions due to Russia-Ukraine conflict, as highlighted by management. International commerce segment's adjusted EBITDA margin remained stable at -18% as the company continues to spend on marketing and promotions to increase user engagement and acquisition.International commerce remains to be one of Alibaba's key growth drivers to tap on less mature e-commerce markets outside of China. While there could be near term competition from other e-commerce companies like Amazon (AMZN) and Shopee, which is owned by Sea Limited (SE), Alibaba's international commerce can still ride the wave of increasing e-commerce penetration in these markets and post higher long term average growth rates than in the mature China Commerce segment.Local Consumer ServicesAs for the local consumer services segment, revenues grew to Rmb 10 billion, up 29% year on year. Ele.me, Alibaba's online food delivery platform, continued to show improvement in unit economics and is reaching near break-even due to improvements in the delivery cost per order as well as the company reducing spend on user acquisitions.As Ele.me continues to scale, its unit economics improvement, as well as the cost reductions made by management will continue to contribute to bottom-line growth for the Group.Stringent cost control and improving regulatory environmentManagement continues to be committed to add value by assessing the areas of its business where there can be further improvement in efficiencies and to reduce costs to make the entire cost structure of the business more nimble and lean. Some of these control in costs includes stringent control over sales and marketing expenses. This, in my view, is positive for Alibaba as the near term may prove challenging with top-line slowing, and management's efforts to provide long term shareholder value through cost efficiencies will be appreciated by the market.The regulatory landscape also seems to be improving, adding to the signs that the worst could be over for Alibaba. In the recent State Council meeting, the government is rolling out supportive measures, some of which are beneficial to Alibaba's business, including stimulating consumption and the commitment to the recovery of supply chains. Also, management commented that the government shared a clear message to the market to encourage the healthy development of platform economies and that management is fully compliant with all the regulatory requirements and continues to watch for any new development in policies on the anti-trust front. I think this shows that the government is sending a message that it will not clamp down too much on platform companies, but rather continues to see the benefits of the healthy development of platform companies for the economy.ValuationI have previously shared my financial model for Alibaba and derived a target price based on its sum of the parts valuation. I forecasted the financials and used a DCF model for most of its businesses except Cainiao, local services and its associates/investments since these businesses are mostly either private or have limited public information. I used rather conservative forecasts, in my view and also applied a holding company discount of 25%, with other assumptions listed in the table below. Based on the SOTP valuation, I have derived a target price of $164 for Alibaba, representing an upside potential of 76% from current levels.Alibaba target price based on SOTP (Author generated)Based on relative valuation, Alibaba now trades at 12x and 9x 2023F and 2024F P/E respectively, while average earnings growth over the 2-year period is expected to be 15%, implying a PEG of 0.8x.RisksCompetitionWhile Alibaba might be the largest player in China, there are risks that competition could threaten Alibaba's market share in both China and in overseas markets. In China, it has to compete against prominent rivals like JD.com (JD) and Pinduoduo (PDD) in a rather mature e-commerce market. As for its international commerce segment, they face competition from international players like Amazon and Shopee, as highlighted earlier. Competitive pressure from both local and international players could slow GMV and user growth for Alibaba compared to expectations.Regulatory and political risksAlibaba is one of the worst-hit companies hit by the regulatory crackdown. However, I am of the view that we have seen the worst of the regulatory crackdown and the government is signalling easing of regulatory pressures, which I think are necessary for the government to improve its economy amidst its zero-covid policy. As such, the worst is likely over for Alibaba as most of the regulatory pressures have eased and we could start seeing better times for the company.Execution in investmentsAlibaba management has renewed focus on investing in key strategic areas in its business as mentioned earlier. However, this will come down to execution as Alibaba seeks to gain share in these areas. If execution were to be weak, ideal results of the heavy investments may not materialize.Cloud risksThere is risk that Alibaba's cloud revenue growth could slow down given that there is competition from Huawei, Tencent and China Telecom. If Alibaba is unable to maintain market leadership in cloud, this could affect economies of scale effects that it currently enjoys.ConclusionI think this presents one of the best buying opportunities for Alibaba as the worst is likely over for the company. Looking beyond 2023F earnings, the business is expected to continue to grow in the 20% to 30% range and the current valuation simply just does not price in this long term potential. I think we could continue to see positive surprises for Alibaba in the next few quarters as it surpasses the very low expectations set by the market. My target price for Alibaba based on a SOTP valuation model is $164, implying 76% upside potential from current levels.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":139,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9059491319,"gmtCreate":1654403060731,"gmtModify":1676535443395,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3579245419278799","idStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🍎","listText":"🍎","text":"🍎","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9059491319","repostId":"1133091781","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1133091781","pubTimestamp":1654390809,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1133091781?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-06-05 09:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple: What to Look Out for at the Upcoming WWDC 2022 Event","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1133091781","media":"TipRanks","summary":"Upside of 32%.Turning now to the rest of the Street, where the average target clocks in at $186.45 and factors in 12-month gains of 28%.

Having decided not to bring a movie studio under the fold, Ives thinks Apple is keen to add more live sports to its roster of services. The company has already bought the rights for MLB Friday Night baseball package games for the next few years and along with Amazon, Ives says it is “widely viewed” in the industry the pair were in the final bidding for the NFL Sunday Ticket.This should be a multi-billion-dollar annual deal ($2.5 billion+) and a “landmark” for the company, with the package seen as the “crown jewel” for streaming live sports content. Should Apple win it, it will further strengthen its position in the streaming arms race,” one which has already been boosted by the Oscar win of CODA and success of other recent offerings (Ted Lasso, The Morning Show, Severance).To this end, Ives reiterated an Outperform (i.e., Buy) rating backed by a $200 price target. The implication for investors? Upside of 32%.Turning now to the rest of the Street, where the average target clocks in at $186.45 and factors in 12-month gains of 28%.

Separately, Chief Product Officer Chris Cox warned of &#34;fierce headwinds&#34; in an employee memo, per the report. </p><p>Bank of America&#39;s Justin Post wrote over the long weekend that he saw the reports &#34;as amounting to a 2H revenue warning, which may have been expected by the Street,&#34; though he still has a bullish view on Meta&#39;s stock.

It is evident that the recovery has been swift, given the multiple positive tailwinds in its direction. However, with the shaky Chinese stock market, it is uncertain if the gains could hold and trigger a bull run for BABA.</p><p>However, if we were to split up China&#39;s unrelenting COVID-19 strategies and the potential easing of big tech punishment, BABA&#39;s recovery is almost certain, given its good execution in FQ4&#39;22. That would be <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> highly welcomed news, given how dreary the stock market looks right now, given that BABA had recovered 28.04% of its value in the past month compared to S&amp;P 500 Index at 0.42%. Opportune investors would be well advised to take advantage of the current bear market to add more undervalued stocks to their portfolios, since it is entirely possible that the time of maximum pain is over.</p><p>Nevertheless, investors hoping for the revival of ANT IPO would definitely be disappointed, since the Chinese government denied the news report, leading to a -8.13% stock decline from $119.62 on 8 June 2022.</p><h2>BABA Closed Off FY2022 Beautifully Despite Macro Issues</h2><p><b>BABA Revenue and Gross Income</b></p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0bddd3fb20de09e66cd1e37175083889\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>S&amp;P Capital IQ</p><p>In FQ4&#39;22, BABA reported revenues of $32.18B, representing excellent YoY growth of 12.51%, despite the enforced lockdowns in multiple Chinese cities. Though the company&#39;s declining gross margins may worry some investors, we could attribute it partly to the inflation caused by global supply chain issues and China&#39;s Zero Covid Policy and reinvestments into its businesses, and therefore, temporary.</p><p><b>BABA Revenue By Segment</b></p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5beecf897ef22504ee5d40ec234fb7c9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"395\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>S&amp;P Capital IQ</p><p>It is evident that BABA&#39;s e-commerce segment continues to be the revenue driver, with 13.1% YoY growth while accounting for the majority of its revenue at 86.6%.

However, since the latter represents the final payment towards the Chinese government, we may expect improved FCF from FQ1&#39;23 onwards.</p><p><b>BABA Operating Expense</b></p><p></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e09cc638b935d072afe2e931e33e1995\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"396\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>S&amp;P Capital IQ</p><p>Given BABA&#39;s continuous efforts to improve its operating efficiencies by cutting jobs in March 2022 and enhancing its logistical costs, we may also see improved operating margins moving ahead. We can see hints of these improvements in FQ4&#39;22, where the company spent $7.19B in its operating expenses in FQ4&#39;22, representing a 25% decrease QoQ in R&amp;D, Selling/Marketing, and General/Administrative expenses.

For FY2023, consensus estimates also upgraded its revenue growth to 3.62% YoY, thereby underlining their optimistic view on the recovery of BABA stock and the overall Chinese market.

It is evident that the recovery has been swift, given the multiple positive tailwinds in its direction. However, with the shaky Chinese stock market, it is uncertain if the gains could hold and trigger a bull run for BABA.However, if we were to split up China's unrelenting COVID-19 strategies and the potential easing of big tech punishment, BABA's recovery is almost certain, given its good execution in FQ4'22. That would be one highly welcomed news, given how dreary the stock market looks right now, given that BABA had recovered 28.04% of its value in the past month compared to S&P 500 Index at 0.42%. Opportune investors would be well advised to take advantage of the current bear market to add more undervalued stocks to their portfolios, since it is entirely possible that the time of maximum pain is over.Nevertheless, investors hoping for the revival of ANT IPO would definitely be disappointed, since the Chinese government denied the news report, leading to a -8.13% stock decline from $119.62 on 8 June 2022.BABA Closed Off FY2022 Beautifully Despite Macro IssuesBABA Revenue and Gross IncomeS&P Capital IQIn FQ4'22, BABA reported revenues of $32.18B, representing excellent YoY growth of 12.51%, despite the enforced lockdowns in multiple Chinese cities. Though the company's declining gross margins may worry some investors, we could attribute it partly to the inflation caused by global supply chain issues and China's Zero Covid Policy and reinvestments into its businesses, and therefore, temporary.BABA Revenue By SegmentS&P Capital IQIt is evident that BABA's e-commerce segment continues to be the revenue driver, with 13.1% YoY growth while accounting for the majority of its revenue at 86.6%. Its cloud segment also reported remarkable growth with an increase of 16.7% increase YoY, despite the impact of COVID restrictions and reduced demand from the tech industry.BABA Net Income and Net Income MarginS&P Capital IQBABA's net income also grew from -$0.82B in FQ4'21 to $0.45B in FQ4'22, thereby improving its net income margins YoY from -2.9% to 2.8%, respectively.BABA Cash/ Equivalents, FCF, and FCF MarginsS&P Capital IQNonetheless, it is also apparent that the generation of BABA's previously robust free cash flows is declining, given the decreasing profitability and its payment towards the Anti-monopoly fine at approximately $1.36B. However, since the latter represents the final payment towards the Chinese government, we may expect improved FCF from FQ1'23 onwards.BABA Operating ExpenseS&P Capital IQGiven BABA's continuous efforts to improve its operating efficiencies by cutting jobs in March 2022 and enhancing its logistical costs, we may also see improved operating margins moving ahead. We can see hints of these improvements in FQ4'22, where the company spent $7.19B in its operating expenses in FQ4'22, representing a 25% decrease QoQ in R&D, Selling/Marketing, and General/Administrative expenses. Assuming that BABA continues on this cost reduction path, we are confident of BABA's capabilities in improving its profitability moving forward.BABA Projected Revenue and Net IncomeS&P Capital IQSince our previous analysis in May 2022, BABA's revenue growth has been upgraded from a CAGR of 7.09% to 9.33%, though its net income is projected to grow even faster from a CAGR of 38.94% to 56.53%. For FY2023, consensus estimates also upgraded its revenue growth to 3.62% YoY, thereby underlining their optimistic view on the recovery of BABA stock and the overall Chinese market. Assuming the stabilization of the Chinese economy as per the government's intention with a GDP target of 5.5%, we could potentially see an upwards rerating of BABA's projected revenue and net income growth moving forward. We shall see.So, Is BABA Stock A Buy, Sell, Or Hold?BABA 5Y EV/Revenue and P/E ValuationsS&P Capital IQBABA is currently trading at an EV/NTM Revenue of 1.92x and NTM P/E of 14.73x, lower than its 5Y mean of 6.29x and 25.10x, respectively. The stock is also trading at $109.90, down 52.4% from its 52 weeks high of $230.89, though already at a 49.9% premium from its 52 weeks low of $73.28.BABA 5Y Stock PriceSeeking AlphaNonetheless, given the consensus estimates price target of $170.89 for BABA, investors who add now would still have a 55.5% upside from current prices. It is also evident from the chart that its pre-pandemic prices stand at $170s before rallying to over $300 during the ANT IPO hype.Therefore, it is not too late to back up the truck and load up on BABA now.Therefore, we rate BABA stock as a Buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":70,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9953917564,"gmtCreate":1673136748058,"gmtModify":1676538790215,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579245419278799","authorIdStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9953917564","repostId":"2301920190","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2301920190","pubTimestamp":1673047547,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2301920190?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-01-07 07:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Top Tech Stocks to Buy in January","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2301920190","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Down between 59% and 80%, these growth stocks are great buys this month.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The past year has not been kind to technology stocks.

This is a case where I think long-term investors will be rewarded for taking a contrarian position.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":334,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9932296584,"gmtCreate":1662943503448,"gmtModify":1676537167515,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579245419278799","authorIdStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🥰","listText":"🥰","text":"🥰","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9932296584","repostId":"1113574183","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1113574183","pubTimestamp":1662940046,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1113574183?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-12 07:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple’s Latest Products and Services Are About Loyalty—to Apple","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1113574183","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Apple on Wednesday unveiled the iPhone 14 line, the Apple Watch Ultra and new AirPods, but the big t","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Apple on Wednesday unveiled the iPhone 14 line, the Apple Watch Ultra and new AirPods, but the big theme of the day was keeping users more locked into the company’s ecosystem.

If, like me, you bought the first AirPods Pro in October 2019, now is also probably a good time to upgrade—especially if your batteries are waning.</p><p>If there is a knock on the AirPods, it’s that they don’t support Apple’s new lossless audio feature.

As I indicated several months ago, we’re getting the broadest set of changes to this product since it launched in 2015. For the first time, Apple introduced three distinct models: a new low-end SE, the standard Series 8 and the upscale Ultra.</p><p>There’s not a lot to say about the new SE. The company developed a different production process and gave the device a cheaper back casing to help cut the price by $30: $249 instead of $279. That was a necessary move with the discontinuation of the $199 Apple Watch Series 3. If you have an SE from 2020, I see no reason to upgrade for a slightly faster processor.</p><p>The Series 8 model isn’t a dramatic update either. It does have a body-temperature sensor for women’s health—something that could benefit millions of people. But the model lacks design changes, additional health sensors like a blood-pressure monitor, a faster processor, better speakers or improved battery life (aside from the new low-power mode).</p><p>It’s also worth noting that Apple won’t allow users to determine their actual body temperature with the new sensor, which would help customers replace thermometers like they have with blood-oxygen readers.</p><p>The Ultra, on the other hand, is one of the most impressive new pieces of hardware from Apple in years.

Instead, it could have also highlighted how the features appeal to non-athletes and released a slew of daily wear bands.

Perhaps even more impressive is the fact that even in the midst of the ongoing meltdown in technology stocks, the iPhone maker has outperformed the broader indexes and many of its peers.</p><p>From their peaks several months ago, the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> and the <b>Nasdaq Composite</b> indexes have declined 17% and 26%, respectively, while Apple stock has shed just 13%.</p><p>That performance notwithstanding, there are plenty of reasons for investors to buy Apple stock and hold forever.</p><h2>1. It&#39;s Warren Buffett&#39;s largest holding</h2><p>Given his extraordinary track record, investors could do far worse than following in the footsteps of legendary money manager Warren Buffett. Since taking the helm of <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b> in 1965, the &#34;Oracle of Omaha&#34; has delivered mind-boggling returns, generating a compound annual growth rate of more than 20%. In fact, by the end of 2021, the company&#39;s overall returns clocked in at a staggering 3,641,613%.</p><p>Lest there be any doubt, Apple is far and away Berkshire&#39;s largest holding. Buffett ended the second quarter with nearly 895 million shares of Apple stock, worth roughly $122 billion as of June, 30, accounting for about 41% of Berkshire&#39;s portfolio. That&#39;s quite a vote of confidence from one of the world&#39;s most successful investors.</p><h2>2. One billion iPhones strong -- and growing</h2><p>There&#39;s no question that the release of the iconic iPhone in 2007 ushered in the modern smartphone and forever changed the way we communicate. The device&#39;s sleek design and integrated computing power took the world by storm. Now, as we await the release of the upcoming iPhone 14, Apple dominates the market, with more than 1 billion active iPhones in the wild.</p><p>Rumors are swirling that the next-generation device -- which is due to be unveiled next week -- could sport some major upgrades and four new models. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives estimates that roughly 24% of iPhone owners worldwide haven&#39;t upgraded their device over the past 3.5 years. Even in the midst of the prevailing macroeconomic headwinds, this could mark the beginning of the next big product cycle for the iPhone.</p><h2>3. Apple is the new black</h2><p>While the iPhone gets all the press, Apple&#39;s wearables, home products, and accessories segment -- which includes such products as Apple Watch, AirPods, AirTags, and Beats headphones -- continue to steadily attract converts. Earlier this year, noted tech analyst Horace Dediu announced that &#34;Apple Wearables is now [the size of] a Fortune 100 business.&#34; In fact, the segment has generated more revenue so far in fiscal 2022 than either the Mac <i>or</i> the iPad.</p><p>Supply constraints and foreign exchange headwinds have weighed on the segment, which grew just 6% year over year through the first three quarters of fiscal 2022. That said, the resulting pent-up demand will eventually give way to a surge in sales. Furthermore, the company is expected to release the latest versions of its Apple Watch next week. These could include a Pro model, which could serve to supercharge sales of the popular device.</p><h2>4. Services: Apple&#39;s second-biggest breadwinner</h2><p>Long before anyone else, CEO Tim Cook saw the potential for Apple&#39;s services segment, announcing plans in early 2017 to double its revenue over the coming four years.

Perhaps even more impressive is the fact that even in the midst of the ongoing meltdown in technology stocks, the iPhone maker has outperformed the broader indexes and many of its peers.From their peaks several months ago, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite indexes have declined 17% and 26%, respectively, while Apple stock has shed just 13%.That performance notwithstanding, there are plenty of reasons for investors to buy Apple stock and hold forever.1. It's Warren Buffett's largest holdingGiven his extraordinary track record, investors could do far worse than following in the footsteps of legendary money manager Warren Buffett. Since taking the helm of Berkshire Hathaway in 1965, the \"Oracle of Omaha\" has delivered mind-boggling returns, generating a compound annual growth rate of more than 20%. In fact, by the end of 2021, the company's overall returns clocked in at a staggering 3,641,613%.Lest there be any doubt, Apple is far and away Berkshire's largest holding. Buffett ended the second quarter with nearly 895 million shares of Apple stock, worth roughly $122 billion as of June, 30, accounting for about 41% of Berkshire's portfolio. That's quite a vote of confidence from one of the world's most successful investors.2. One billion iPhones strong -- and growingThere's no question that the release of the iconic iPhone in 2007 ushered in the modern smartphone and forever changed the way we communicate. The device's sleek design and integrated computing power took the world by storm. Now, as we await the release of the upcoming iPhone 14, Apple dominates the market, with more than 1 billion active iPhones in the wild.Rumors are swirling that the next-generation device -- which is due to be unveiled next week -- could sport some major upgrades and four new models. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives estimates that roughly 24% of iPhone owners worldwide haven't upgraded their device over the past 3.5 years. Even in the midst of the prevailing macroeconomic headwinds, this could mark the beginning of the next big product cycle for the iPhone.3. Apple is the new blackWhile the iPhone gets all the press, Apple's wearables, home products, and accessories segment -- which includes such products as Apple Watch, AirPods, AirTags, and Beats headphones -- continue to steadily attract converts. Earlier this year, noted tech analyst Horace Dediu announced that \"Apple Wearables is now [the size of] a Fortune 100 business.\" In fact, the segment has generated more revenue so far in fiscal 2022 than either the Mac or the iPad.Supply constraints and foreign exchange headwinds have weighed on the segment, which grew just 6% year over year through the first three quarters of fiscal 2022. That said, the resulting pent-up demand will eventually give way to a surge in sales. Furthermore, the company is expected to release the latest versions of its Apple Watch next week. These could include a Pro model, which could serve to supercharge sales of the popular device.4. Services: Apple's second-biggest breadwinnerLong before anyone else, CEO Tim Cook saw the potential for Apple's services segment, announcing plans in early 2017 to double its revenue over the coming four years. Fast forward to mid-2022, and services has come into its own.The segment, which includes Apple Music, the App Store, Apple Pay, and Apple TV+ (among others), just set a June quarter record,  generating 19% of Apple's total revenue. Services also saw revenue records in each major category, including all-time records for Music, Cloud Services, Apple Care, and Payment Services.Apple TV+ began as something of an industry joke, with just eight programs and a documentary. But nobody's laughing now. Apple has netted more than 250 awards and over 1,100 nominations for its programming, including 52 Emmy Award nominations in 2022.5. Dividends: The gift that keeps on givingApple began paying a dividend again in 2012 and has amassed quite an impressive track record. The quarterly payout began at a split-adjusted $0.095 and has soared 143% in just ten years.This includes Apple's announcement earlier this year, which boosted the quarterly payout to $0.23 per share, an increase of 5% for 2022. That likely won't be the last increase as Apple is using less than 15% of its profits to fund the payout, giving the company plenty of opportunity for future increases.6. Fewer shares = a bigger slice of the Apple pieAnother highlight of Apple's shareholder-friendly policies is the company's strong share-repurchase plan.

Wh","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2>Thesis Summary</h2><p>NIO Inc (NYSE:NIO) has seen its share price drop by near 15% in the last five days. While general market weakness has certainly played a part in this, NIO has been facing challenges at home. Most notably, NIO has had to suspend production due to COVID induced lockdowns around China. This is cause for concern, but the current sell-off is overblown.</p><p>A lot has happened with NIO in the last couple of weeks, and if we look at these developments closely, we can see that the good outweighs the bad. NIO is transforming itself into much more than an EV maker.</p><h2>Supply Issues Are Overblown</h2><p>First off, let’s address the issue of supply. NIO has been forced to suspend production because many of its supply partners are in cities facing harsh lockdowns. These include Jilin, Shanghai and Jiangsu. Shanghai, where NIO is headquartered, has been in a phased lockdown since the end of March.</p><p>NIO is no stranger to production halts, as it also faced issues in October 2021, when production was stopped due to upgrades being carried out. These were necessary to begin production of the ET7.</p><p>Having to stop production is a problem for a car company, but investors should not be overly concerned.</p><p>For starters, NIO is not the only <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> facing this problem. Other EV makers such as Tesla Inc (TSLA) and XPeng (XPEV) have also halted production. This is a sector-wide problem that doesn’t only affect NIO.</p><p>Secondly, investors should understand that, where possible, work is being carried out. Halting production doesn’t mean that the factory is closed down. In fact, NIO could use this as a chance to carry out further upgrades to its supply lines, since I believe there is still work to be done in that area.</p><p>Lastly, it is worth mentioning that NIO, which has often been criticized for not having its production facilities, is addressing this issue head-on. In my last article, I mentioned that NIO has almost completed the building of its F2 manufacturing facility in the NeoPark. With both factories fully operational, NIO will be able to produce close to 240,000 units per year</p><p>More importantly though, last week NIO increased its stake in its joint venture with JAC Motors to 50%. JAC is NIO’s main production partner, and the two established a JV on March 31st of 2021 called Jianglai. Rumor is that Jianglai will be responsible for producing NIO’s sub-brand, which targets the mass market.</p><h2>NIO: More than a car company</h2><p>While investors are panicking over the supply issues, NIO is delivering encouraging news and catalysts for future growth.</p><p>First off, NIO reported very strong monthly deliveries, with a 37.6% YoY increase. NIO deployed 884 Power Swap stations and 727 Power Charger stations, as well as 3,832 destination chargers in China. And this is where it gets interesting.</p><p>NIO has recently begun building out its power stations in Europe, and the company is in talks with other car companies to begin leasing out its infrastructure. This would be a huge move for NIO and could change the way the company is perceived by the market.</p><p>What separates NIO from other EV companies are two things. One is that it primarily promotes the utilization of Battery-as-a-Service. And two, that it has built out an immense infrastructure of battery swap stations in China, and is now doing this to Europe.</p><p>Building swap stations are big investments, with estimated costs of $772,00, in China, and charging other companies to use its battery swap stations would be a win-win. It would help NIO monetize its infrastructure, and save other EV manufacturers millions in investments.</p><p>In order for other EVs to use these stations, though, there would have to be some degree of standardization in the batteries, but this doesn&#39;t have to be an obstacle. NIO could also lend other companies a hand in designing their batteries, an area in which NIO has extensive expertise. NIO has a total of 2,768 patents in China, 204 in Europe and 193 more in the United States.</p><p>NIO is not only an EV manufacturer, it is a company with a very large infrastructure and extensive intellectual capital. This is perhaps the most significant reason I own NIO.</p><p>For now, it seems like Lotus Technology could be one of NIO’s first customers. It is worth mentioning though, that Lotus is partially owned by NIO</p><h2>Risks</h2><p>What I like about NIO is that it is laying the foundations for long-term success. However, the question remains whether BaaS will become standard practice amongst EV manufacturers. NIO certainly believes so and has placed its battery swap stations next to Tesla’s superchargers, to showcase the improved user experience.</p><p>NIO’s battery swap stations can change a battery in a matter of minutes. This also entails that you can always have a fully serviced battery, and the initial cost for the car is cheaper, with the battery cost being spread out month-to-month.</p><p>However, while the service is superior, in the long run, this is a more expensive endeavor. It involves changing the battery every time and building out a much more expensive network of stations.</p><p>Tesla’s superchargers are much cheaper to install, and they can charge 200 miles in 15 minutes. Is NIO’s battery swap worth it? The consumer will decide that. However, what is most concerning to me is that battery technology is still in its early stages. A lot may change in the next few years, including sizes, materials needed and charging times. Improvements in battery technology could render the advantages of BaaS over regular charging obsolete.</p><h2>Takeaway</h2><p>NIO’s shares have slid significantly in the last week, and this doesn&#39;t reflect the reality of what is happening. While supply issues are a challenge, NIO’s expansion in Europe and its growth prospects beyond the sale of EVs should be more than enough to keep investors interested. NIO is a leader in battery technology and is building out an incredibly valuable infrastructure. It’s just a matter of time before the market realizes this.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>NIO: Don't Buy Into The Fear, NIO Is An EV Pioneer</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\">\nNIO: Don't Buy Into The Fear, NIO Is An EV Pioneer\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-13 10:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4501051-nio-dont-buy-into-the-fear-nio-is-an-ev-pioneer><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Thesis SummaryNIO Inc (NYSE:NIO) has seen its share price drop by near 15% in the last five days.

NIO has a total of 2,768 patents in China, 204 in Europe and 193 more in the United States.NIO is not only an EV manufacturer, it is a company with a very large infrastructure and extensive intellectual capital. This is perhaps the most significant reason I own NIO.For now, it seems like Lotus Technology could be one of NIO’s first customers. It is worth mentioning though, that Lotus is partially owned by NIORisksWhat I like about NIO is that it is laying the foundations for long-term success. However, the question remains whether BaaS will become standard practice amongst EV manufacturers. NIO certainly believes so and has placed its battery swap stations next to Tesla’s superchargers, to showcase the improved user experience.NIO’s battery swap stations can change a battery in a matter of minutes. This also entails that you can always have a fully serviced battery, and the initial cost for the car is cheaper, with the battery cost being spread out month-to-month.However, while the service is superior, in the long run, this is a more expensive endeavor. It involves changing the battery every time and building out a much more expensive network of stations.Tesla’s superchargers are much cheaper to install, and they can charge 200 miles in 15 minutes. Is NIO’s battery swap worth it? The consumer will decide that. However, what is most concerning to me is that battery technology is still in its early stages. A lot may change in the next few years, including sizes, materials needed and charging times. Improvements in battery technology could render the advantages of BaaS over regular charging obsolete.TakeawayNIO’s shares have slid significantly in the last week, and this doesn't reflect the reality of what is happening. While supply issues are a challenge, NIO’s expansion in Europe and its growth prospects beyond the sale of EVs should be more than enough to keep investors interested. NIO is a leader in battery technology and is building out an incredibly valuable infrastructure. It’s just a matter of time before the market realizes this.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":76,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9015623538,"gmtCreate":1649474694175,"gmtModify":1676534518629,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579245419278799","authorIdStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy","listText":"Buy","text":"Buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9015623538","repostId":"1113138586","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1113138586","pubTimestamp":1649461821,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1113138586?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-09 07:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"This $600 Million Fund Just Bought Palantir (PLTR) Stock.

However, an investment firm with $586 million in assets under management (AUM) recently submitted its Q1 13F form to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Institutional investors must submit a 13F form to report their equity holdings at the end of each quarter.

The firm was not required to report its purchase price, although the purchase occurred sometime during Q1. In Q1, Palantir traded in a range between $9.75 and $18.53. After the purchase, Palantir is now Spence’s ninth-largest position out of 35 total positions. At current prices, the firm’s PLTR stake is worth about $17.9 million.</p><p>In addition, it can be assumed that Spence purchased PLTR stock as an investment and not as a trade. This is because the firm has an average holding period of 10.51 quarters, or 2.6 years. With the 13F filing, Spence also disclosed its entire stock portfolio. The firm’s top three positions as of Q1 are:</p><ol><li><b>Visa</b>(NYSE:<b><u>V</u></b>): 174,920 shares.</li><li><b>Mastercard</b>(NYSE:<b><u>MA</u></b>): 103,915 shares.</li><li><b>Alphabet</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>GOOG</u></b>): 11,465 shares.</li></ol><p>Who Else Is Betting Big On Palantir?</p><p>Tracking aggregate institutional ownership is important, as these large funds provide liquidity and price support.

As a result, most investment funds have not yet submitted a Q1 13F form.</p><p>As of Q4, 791 funds reported owning Palantir, an increase of 10 funds from the prior quarter. Additionally, 153 funds reported initiating a new position, while 131 funds closed out their position. On top of that, the institutional put/call ratio tallies in at 1.6, which means that funds own more put options against PLTR stock than call options by a wide margin.

So this could be a great time to put some extra money or end-of-the-year bonuses to work.</p><p>Let&#39;s take a look at three stocks that look set to bounce back in 2023.</p><h2>1. A recession-proof travel stock?</h2><p><b>Airbnb</b> has disrupted the travel sector by making an industry out of home-sharing, and the company dominates that segment of the travel industry with an estimated 74% market share.</p><p>Airbnb, after all, is a verb and noun, and it&#39;s come to mean any type of home-share, even if it&#39;s not an Airbnb listing.</p><p>In 2022, the business has boomed as travel has recovered and Covid restrictions have come down. In its most recent quarter, revenue jumped 29% to $2.9 billion, and GAAP net income soared 46% to $1.2 billion as margins benefited from the seasonal peak of the travel season.</p><p>Despite that performance, the stock has lagged throughout the year, down 43% year to date.</p><p>Investors seem to fear a coming recession and believe that Airbnb stock may be overvalued even with its strong growth rate. However, the company is better positioned than its travel peers. In fact, Airbnb was born during the peak of the financial crisis.</p><p>The company&#39;s business model is highly flexible compared to traditional hotel chains, and its inventory shifts according to economic demand. For example, management said that single-room listings increased 31% in the third quarter as people around the world looked for a way to cope with high inflation. That growth in inventory will help the company over the long term and ensure that it will be able to offer affordable places for travelers to stay. Often, a single-room listing will beat the price of a competing hotel room, making Airbnb a good option for budget travelers.</p><p>If the company can continue to grow and gain market share through the potential recession, it will emerge even better equipped to take advantage of the opportunity in travel and experiences valued at well over $1 trillion.</p><h2>2. A shaken search giant</h2><p>Like Airbnb, <b>Alphabet</b> is another top dog that&#39;s taken a dive this year.</p><p>Shares of the Google parent have tumbled as growth has dramatically slowed following its own pandemic boom. Revenue increased just 6% in its most recent quarter as macroeconomic headwinds caught up with the advertising industry.</p><p>The company doesn&#39;t see any new competition in its industry. In fact, advertising demand seems to be shifting from social to search because of <b>Apple&#39;s </b>ad-targeting restrictions, and Alphabet&#39;s ad revenue outgrew rival Meta, the Facebook parent, in the third quarter.</p><p>Advertising is often one of the first expenses to get cut when businesses fear a recession as they expect consumers to cut back on spending and look to trim their own budgets. But advertising is cyclical. It will recover once the economy begins to expand again.</p><p>Alphabet has been through this cycle twice before, in the financial crisis and during the pandemic, and both times it&#39;s made a robust recovery. There&#39;s no reason to expect anything different this time around. Once the business starts to accelerate, its current price-to-earnings ratio of 19 is likely to look like a bargain.</p><h2>3. A tech giant with fixable problems</h2><p><b>Amazon</b> is facing challenges at every turn, it seems. So far this year, its growth rate has shrunk to just single digits, the company has shuttered once-promising concepts like Amazon Care, it&#39;s canceled or closed dozens of warehouses, and it just announced plans to lay off roughly 10,000 corporate workers. Now, even Amazon&#39;s once-impeccable customer satisfaction scores are slipping.</p><p>As a result, the stock is down 45% year to date and has now given back roughly all of its pandemic-era gains when the e-commerce business was booming, and it was posting record profits.</p><p>Despite those challenges, Amazon has the means to get back on track, and its competitive advantages like Prime membership, fast delivery, its third-party marketplace, and others are just as strong as they were a year ago.</p><p>Amazon made errors, including overestimating the trajectory of e-commerce demand coming out of the pandemic. But taking steps to control costs, such as laying off employees, closing warehouses, and pulling back spending on unprofitable items like Amazon Care and Alexa, will show up on the bottom line.</p><p>Meanwhile, Amazon Web Services remains a profit machine, on track for close to $25 billion in operating income this year. Its e-commerce business should get back to profitability as it rebalances costs and benefits from a high-margin advertising business that is approaching $40 billion in annual revenue.</p><p>On a price-to-sales basis, the stock is as cheap as it&#39;s been in eight years before investors were aware of AWS&#39;s potential. While its growth rate may slow down now that annual revenue is set to top $500 billion, the company still has a lot of room to ramp up profits. With the cost-cutting moves it&#39;s making now, it should see a sharp improvement on the bottom line in 2023.</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 You'll Be Thankful to Own in 2023</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 You'll Be Thankful to Own in 2023\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-11-25 16:01 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/11/24/3-stocks-youll-be-thankful-to-own-in-2023/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Turkey day is here, and that means that 2023 isn't far around the corner.While you're celebrating the holidays with friends and family, it's also a good time of year to get your financial house in ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/11/24/3-stocks-youll-be-thankful-to-own-in-2023/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AMZN":"亚马逊","GOOG":"谷歌","GOOGL":"谷歌A","ABNB":"爱彼迎"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/11/24/3-stocks-youll-be-thankful-to-own-in-2023/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2285389313","content_text":"Turkey day is here, and that means that 2023 isn't far around the corner.While you're celebrating the holidays with friends and family, it's also a good time of year to get your financial house in order.

Often, a single-room listing will beat the price of a competing hotel room, making Airbnb a good option for budget travelers.If the company can continue to grow and gain market share through the potential recession, it will emerge even better equipped to take advantage of the opportunity in travel and experiences valued at well over $1 trillion.2. A shaken search giantLike Airbnb, Alphabet is another top dog that's taken a dive this year.Shares of the Google parent have tumbled as growth has dramatically slowed following its own pandemic boom. Revenue increased just 6% in its most recent quarter as macroeconomic headwinds caught up with the advertising industry.The company doesn't see any new competition in its industry. In fact, advertising demand seems to be shifting from social to search because of Apple's ad-targeting restrictions, and Alphabet's ad revenue outgrew rival Meta, the Facebook parent, in the third quarter.Advertising is often one of the first expenses to get cut when businesses fear a recession as they expect consumers to cut back on spending and look to trim their own budgets. But advertising is cyclical. It will recover once the economy begins to expand again.Alphabet has been through this cycle twice before, in the financial crisis and during the pandemic, and both times it's made a robust recovery. There's no reason to expect anything different this time around. Once the business starts to accelerate, its current price-to-earnings ratio of 19 is likely to look like a bargain.3. A tech giant with fixable problemsAmazon is facing challenges at every turn, it seems. So far this year, its growth rate has shrunk to just single digits, the company has shuttered once-promising concepts like Amazon Care, it's canceled or closed dozens of warehouses, and it just announced plans to lay off roughly 10,000 corporate workers. Now, even Amazon's once-impeccable customer satisfaction scores are slipping.As a result, the stock is down 45% year to date and has now given back roughly all of its pandemic-era gains when the e-commerce business was booming, and it was posting record profits.Despite those challenges, Amazon has the means to get back on track, and its competitive advantages like Prime membership, fast delivery, its third-party marketplace, and others are just as strong as they were a year ago.Amazon made errors, including overestimating the trajectory of e-commerce demand coming out of the pandemic. But taking steps to control costs, such as laying off employees, closing warehouses, and pulling back spending on unprofitable items like Amazon Care and Alexa, will show up on the bottom line.Meanwhile, Amazon Web Services remains a profit machine, on track for close to $25 billion in operating income this year. Its e-commerce business should get back to profitability as it rebalances costs and benefits from a high-margin advertising business that is approaching $40 billion in annual revenue.On a price-to-sales basis, the stock is as cheap as it's been in eight years before investors were aware of AWS's potential. While its growth rate may slow down now that annual revenue is set to top $500 billion, the company still has a lot of room to ramp up profits. With the cost-cutting moves it's making now, it should see a sharp improvement on the bottom line in 2023.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":554,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9991407424,"gmtCreate":1660868379370,"gmtModify":1676536413608,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579245419278799","authorIdStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9991407424","repostId":"2260662533","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2260662533","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":1660866458,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2260662533?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-19 07:47","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Starbucks Chief Oper Officer John Culver to Leave in Reshuffle","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2260662533","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Starbucks Corp. said Thursday that John Culver will leave the company in October as it eliminates th","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SBUX\">Starbucks Corp.</a> said Thursday that John Culver will leave the company in October as it eliminates the chief operating officer role and global supply chain Executive Vice President George Dowdie will depart next year.</p><p>The departures at the Seattle-based coffee giant come after founder Howard Schultz returned to the chief executive role for the third time in April.</p><p>Mr. Culver, who will depart from his role as group president, North America and COO, will leave on Oct. 1, the effective date of the reorganization, according to a securities filing.

Having decided not to bring a movie studio under the fold, Ives thinks Apple is keen to add more live sports to its roster of services. The company has already bought the rights for MLB Friday Night baseball package games for the next few years and along with Amazon, Ives says it is “widely viewed” in the industry the pair were in the final bidding for the NFL Sunday Ticket.This should be a multi-billion-dollar annual deal ($2.5 billion+) and a “landmark” for the company, with the package seen as the “crown jewel” for streaming live sports content. Should Apple win it, it will further strengthen its position in the streaming arms race,” one which has already been boosted by the Oscar win of CODA and success of other recent offerings (Ted Lasso, The Morning Show, Severance).To this end, Ives reiterated an Outperform (i.e., Buy) rating backed by a $200 price target. The implication for investors? Upside of 32%.Turning now to the rest of the Street, where the average target clocks in at $186.45 and factors in 12-month gains of 28%. Looking at the ratings, based on 21 Buys vs. 6 Holds, the analyst consensus rates the stock a Strong Buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":139,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9095871992,"gmtCreate":1644887181673,"gmtModify":1676533972054,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579245419278799","authorIdStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Well said","listText":"Well said","text":"Well said","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9095871992","repostId":"2211652081","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2211652081","pubTimestamp":1644847200,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2211652081?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-14 22:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"4 Reasons Not to Worry About a Stock Market Crash","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2211652081","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Market crashes happen.

You don&#39;t need to sell your stocks today</h2><p>As a general rule, you should not have money invested in stocks that you expect you&#39;ll need to spend within the next five years. If you have followed that guideline, it becomes much easier to stomach a market crash. It&#39;s still not fun, but you can make it through.</p><p>After all, if you don&#39;t need the money immediately, then you don&#39;t have to sell shares when they&#39;re low just to cover your bills. That gives you the chance to not only hold on through a crash, but also to potentially add more to strong companies while they&#39;re near their cheapest. The ability to buy low -- instead of selling low -- allows you to end up in a better spot once the crash passes.</p><h2>2. You have emergency money stocked away, just in case</h2><p>One of the bigger risks most people face when the market crashes isn&#39;t the crash itself, but rather the fact that a down market is often linked to job losses. Even if you fully intend to hold on to your stocks through a crash, if you find yourself without a paycheck and with no cash buffer, you could wind up needing to sell due to that job loss.</p><p>A three- to six-month emergency fund buys you time to both look for another job and figure out ways to cut costs before you feel forced to sell your shares. It&#39;s a buffer that can come in incredibly handy in a tough environment. It&#39;s also <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of those things that you hope you&#39;ll never have to use -- but if you do, you&#39;ll be incredibly glad it&#39;s there when you need it.</p><h2>3. You own strong companies that still pay their dividends</h2><p>The beauty of a stock&#39;s dividend is that it tends to get paid based on the underlying company&#39;s ability to generate cash, rather than on the stock market&#39;s short-term mood. When companies continue to pay their dividends in a down market, that helps investors in a number of ways.</p><p>First, the cash itself can be used to buy more shares while they&#39;re down -- either of the company that paid the dividend, or of a different one that looks like a compelling value at a low price. That cash becomes available without you having to sell stock or somehow scaring up money from another source, which can be comforting if you&#39;re a bit nervous about the future.</p><p>Second, the fact that companies continue to make their payments from available cash flows can provide a calming effect for investors, even as the market appears to panic around them. After all, there&#39;s nothing quite like cold, hard cash to remind people that there&#39;s a business behind each stock. If a dividend is still supported and getting paid, it means there&#39;s still a successful company there, no matter what the stock price might say at the moment.</p><h2>4. You have a value investor&#39;s mindset</h2><p>Ultimately, a share of stock is an ownership stake in a business. If that business is currently profitable and expected to remain that way, each share is certainly worth <i>something</i>. Value investors recognize that a company&#39;s intrinsic worth is based on its ability to generate cash over time, and not simply on what the market thinks its shares should be priced at today.</p><p>As a result, a market crash can make great companies&#39; shares available at a price below what those value investors believe they&#39;re really worth. That sort of pricing turns value investors into aggressive buyers during a crash, and it&#39;s a key part of the strategy that helped Warren Buffett earn and expand his fortune.</p><p>Especially when combined with the first three reasons not to worry about a stock-market crash, this fourth reason can actually give you an opportunity to profit from one. After all, if you&#39;ve got the cash to ride out the decline <i>and</i> the wherewithal to buy near the lows, you have the opportunity to make some serious coin in any subsequent recovery.</p><h2>Are you ready for the next crash?</h2><p>While these four factors can help you make it through a market crash with much less worry, they all work much better if you have them in place before you need them. So start getting your plan in place today. That way, you&#39;ll be in a much better place the next time the market crashes.</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>4 Reasons Not to Worry About a Stock Market Crash</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\">\n4 Reasons Not to Worry About a Stock Market Crash\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-02-14 22:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/02/13/4-reasons-not-to-worry-about-a-stock-market-crash/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The stock market will crash again.

Wall Street Sees Nearly 50% Upside Ahead</span></p><p><b>The Wall Street Consensus on NIO</b></p><p>There is not a single Wall Street analyst who is bearish on <b>NIO</b> (<b>NIO</b>) stock. Among the nine analysts who have covered the stock over the past three months, all but one have a buy recommendation:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af2115bdd8de069a9c9feedb36a9bc6e\" tg-width=\"517\" tg-height=\"395\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Figure 2: NIO&#39;s consensus analyst rating.</span></p><p>With a median target price of $31.84, this implies an upside potential of about 47% in NIO shares, considering the last share price of $21.5 per share.</p><p><b>NIO Is Deutsche Bank&#39;s Top Pick</b></p><p>A few days ago, Deutsche Bank analyst Edison Yu named NIO his top pick among Chinese electric vehicle (EV) makers. According to Yu, sales of NIO&#39;s older models continue to be healthy. And NIO&#39;s premium ET5 sedan is also selling well, based on early feedback.</p><p>In a note to his clients, Yu also said that the time has finally come for NIO stock to &#34;shine bright.&#34;</p><p>With that, the Deutsche Bank analyst revealed his bullish price target on NIO of $39 per share — which implies an upside potential of over 80% from the current price of $21.40 per share.</p><p>Thanks to this new price target, plus another bullish rating from Bank of America analyst Ming-Hsun Lee, NIO shares soared 12% during the September 12 trading session.</p><p><b>Focusing on NIO&#39;s Strong Volume Growth From Q4 Through 2023</b></p><p>Analyst Bo Pei of US Tiger Securities recently lowered his price target from $35 to $32 after NIO&#39;s second-quarter (Q2) results, although he kept his buy recommendation on the stock.</p><p>Pei noted that NIO&#39;s Q2 results were largely in line with expectations. But its guidance for the third quarter was below the consensus due to external factors that should ease in the fourth quarter, when he expects volume to rebound.</p><p>With Q2 deliveries being pre-announced, investors are focused on Q2 margins and the second-half outlook. The analyst pointed out that the drop in vehicle margins of 16.7% was due to increased battery costs.</p><p>In addition, the Tiger Securities analyst pointed out that NIO is still hoping to deliver 100,000 vehicles in the second half, implying that at least 67,000 will be delivered — which is already double the Q3 guidance.</p><p>Even though it&#39;s an ambitious goal, the new ET5 and ES7 models should drivegrowth volume and make this goal achievable. Finally, the analyst also wrote that he thinks that, in Q3, vehicle margins should also increase due to the improved mix shift, along with price hikes.</p><p><b>Our Take</b></p><p>Based on the macroeconomic backdrop and the latest Consumer Price Index (CPIDas ) data, it&#39;s likely higher interest rates will persist.</p><p>Thus, growth stocks like NIO should continue to be impacted in the near term, because their future earnings are less attractive than bonds, which pay more competitive yields in periods like the present.</p><p>This year alone, NIO&#39;s shares have already lost about 34% of their value. This is also due to the influence of delisting risks amid the regulatory conflicts between the U.S. and China.</p><p>In any case, the path for NIO should continue to be bumpy.

Wall Street Sees Nearly 50% Upside AheadThe Wall Street Consensus on NIOThere is not a single Wall Street analyst who is bearish on NIO (NIO) stock. Among the nine analysts who have covered the stock over the past three months, all but one have a buy recommendation:Figure 2: NIO's consensus analyst rating.With a median target price of $31.84, this implies an upside potential of about 47% in NIO shares, considering the last share price of $21.5 per share.NIO Is Deutsche Bank's Top PickA few days ago, Deutsche Bank analyst Edison Yu named NIO his top pick among Chinese electric vehicle (EV) makers. According to Yu, sales of NIO's older models continue to be healthy. And NIO's premium ET5 sedan is also selling well, based on early feedback.In a note to his clients, Yu also said that the time has finally come for NIO stock to \"shine bright.\"With that, the Deutsche Bank analyst revealed his bullish price target on NIO of $39 per share — which implies an upside potential of over 80% from the current price of $21.40 per share.Thanks to this new price target, plus another bullish rating from Bank of America analyst Ming-Hsun Lee, NIO shares soared 12% during the September 12 trading session.Focusing on NIO's Strong Volume Growth From Q4 Through 2023Analyst Bo Pei of US Tiger Securities recently lowered his price target from $35 to $32 after NIO's second-quarter (Q2) results, although he kept his buy recommendation on the stock.Pei noted that NIO's Q2 results were largely in line with expectations. But its guidance for the third quarter was below the consensus due to external factors that should ease in the fourth quarter, when he expects volume to rebound.With Q2 deliveries being pre-announced, investors are focused on Q2 margins and the second-half outlook. The analyst pointed out that the drop in vehicle margins of 16.7% was due to increased battery costs.In addition, the Tiger Securities analyst pointed out that NIO is still hoping to deliver 100,000 vehicles in the second half, implying that at least 67,000 will be delivered — which is already double the Q3 guidance.Even though it's an ambitious goal, the new ET5 and ES7 models should drivegrowth volume and make this goal achievable. Finally, the analyst also wrote that he thinks that, in Q3, vehicle margins should also increase due to the improved mix shift, along with price hikes.Our TakeBased on the macroeconomic backdrop and the latest Consumer Price Index (CPIDas ) data, it's likely higher interest rates will persist.Thus, growth stocks like NIO should continue to be impacted in the near term, because their future earnings are less attractive than bonds, which pay more competitive yields in periods like the present.This year alone, NIO's shares have already lost about 34% of their value. This is also due to the influence of delisting risks amid the regulatory conflicts between the U.S. and China.In any case, the path for NIO should continue to be bumpy. But Wall Street thinks the future still looks bright for this stock. Analysts expect NIO's sales growth to be 78% next year, versus an industry consensus of 34% for the broader EV market.In addition, its innovative fast-charging swapping battery technology puts NIO one step ahead of its European and U.S. competitors. NIO's entry into the European market — including the launch of a manufacturing facility in Europe — are also further indications of exponential growth in the long term.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":361,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9933181504,"gmtCreate":1662252442908,"gmtModify":1676537023429,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579245419278799","authorIdStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👌&nbsp;","listText":"👌&nbsp;","text":"👌","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9933181504","repostId":"2264288763","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2264288763","pubTimestamp":1662252212,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2264288763?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-04 08:43","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Post Stock Split, Is Now the Time to Buy Amazon?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2264288763","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"It might be time to consider adding the e-commerce and cloud giant to your shopping cart.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>E-commerce giant <b>Amazon</b> completed a 20-for-1 stock split in June, its first split since 1999. Stock splits don&#39;t change a stock&#39;s fundamental valuation, but a lower share price can make it easier for retail investors to build a position in a company.</p><p>Splits often get a lot of investor attention, sometimes leading to buying frenzies for a stock. Now that a couple of months have passed since this split, it&#39;s an opportune time to revisit Amazon as a potential investment. Here are three things you should know before making a decision about whether to add it to your portfolio.</p><h2>1. The stock is attractively valued</h2><p>Most investors know that 2022 has been a tough year for the stock market, and Amazon hasn&#39;t escaped that fact. Its shares are down roughly 28% since the beginning of the year, but the decline has let some steam out of its valuation. The company&#39;s price-to-sales ratio (P/S) ballooned to more than five at the height of the pandemic.  At its current P/S multiple of 2.7, its valuation is near its lowest level since early 2016.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b111bcf454ddf43d222780d88430315e\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>AMZN PS Ratio data by YCharts</p><p>But context matters. When a stock&#39;s valuation rises or falls significantly, investors need to understand whether something has changed in the company to explain why.</p><p>In Amazon&#39;s case, revenue growth has slowed this year, primarily because it&#39;s being compared to 2021, which was a tough act to follow. For example, Amazon&#39;s Q2 revenue growth in 2021 was 27%. Fast-forward to Q2 2022 when its year over year top-line growth slowed to just 7%. This could help explain why the stock declined. But Amazon&#39;s growth could pick back up again as it will be going up against these more modest 2022 growth figures next year -- and so the bar may be easier to clear.</p><h2>2. Inflation is a real challenge</h2><p>High inflation has been a major economic storyline this year, and it has had a significant impact on Amazon, which operates an extremely price-competitive business that spends a lot on wages and logistics. Consider how Amazon&#39;s operating margins started to plunge as inflation accelerated.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d513decf41b9b80ce7e3efa7a91c54f\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"449\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>AMZN Operating Margin (TTM) data by YCharts</p><p>Falling profit margins aren&#39;t good, but remember that inflation is hitting the entire economy, including all of Amazon&#39;s competitors. Most of them don&#39;t have anything close to Amazon&#39;s size and breadth of operations, which likely means they are struggling too.</p><p>The current high inflation conditions will likely abate eventually. Meanwhile, Amazon has a massive balance sheet with $60 billion in cash, which should allow it to endure the pain of inflation better than most. Investors should maintain a long-term mindset here as it doesn&#39;t seem that inflation will impact Amazon&#39;s competitive position over the long term.</p><h2>3. Profitable business segments are growing</h2><p>E-commerce is notoriously tough to make money in, but it&#39;s a great way to get a foot in the door with consumers. The Amazon Prime membership program is a great tool to bring users into Amazon&#39;s ecosystem, where its other businesses are flourishing. Amazon Web Services, its public cloud platform, has done $72 billion in revenue over the past four quarters; it was also responsible for all of the company&#39;s operating income in Q2. That segment grew 33% in Q2, which could eventually further move the profitability needle.</p><p>Additionally, Amazon is wading further into advertising and is investing heavily in Prime Video, including securing broadcasting rights to the NFL&#39;s <i>Thursday Night Football</i> games in 2022. Amazon&#39;s ad revenue hit nearly $34 billion over the past four quarters. That business could significantly contribute to the company&#39;s performance down the road. Investors will want to keep an eye on the non-retail pieces of Amazon; they could play significant roles in how the company performs over the coming years.</p><h2>Is Amazon a buy?</h2><p>Amazon faces some short-term challenges due to issues outside of its control, and Wall Street hasn&#39;t been in the mood to give it a pass. But it seems like these headwinds will eventually dissipate. Meanwhile, Amazon remains the runaway market share leader for U.S. e-commerce at 38%, and its secondary businesses like AWS and advertising continue to grow.</p><p>Amazon is one of the world&#39;s largest companies, and its stock is probably too big to take you from rags to riches. However, the company remains as dominant as ever, and it doesn&#39;t seem like a reach to expect that investors buying its shares today will be pleased with their returns years from now.</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>Post Stock Split, Is Now the Time to Buy Amazon?</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\">\nPost Stock Split, Is Now the Time to Buy Amazon?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-04 08:43 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/09/03/post-stock-split-is-now-the-time-to-buy-amazon/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>E-commerce giant Amazon completed a 20-for-1 stock split in June, its first split since 1999.

However, after the financial crisis, there were fewer investment opportunities for companies worthwhile pursuing. Additionally, many consumers and businesses saw their collateral collapse and thus were unwilling to borrow until their balance sheets were repaired. This process takes time to unwind. Thus, the economy had a shortage of borrowers for 14 years, and the Fed couldn&#39;t address the problem by lowering the debt costs. QE did almost nothing to the real economy. But it propped up the collateral.</p><p>Fundamentally, the last 40 years have been disinflationary. Central Banks around the world expanded the money supply because there was no downside to printing money, as inflation was low and stable. The resulting wealth effects of these policies were massive, and the gap between poor and rich widened.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41a942d3225895324a1293c6e8fe5852\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>The disinflationary environment vanished during the last 1.5 years because of two reasons. Firstly, the interconnection of the expansive fiscal and monetary policy provided a possibility to print money and inject it into the real economy. Secondly, ongoing supply shortages of commodities due to lack of investment during the last decade increased the cost pressures of businesses and consumers, resulting in cost-push inflation. The cost-push inflation now threatens to translate into a price/wage spiral. The Fed was too expansive during the last 14 years without major effects on the real economy. In March 2020, liquidity provision got to absurd levels. No, as the previously printed money arrives in the real economy, the Fed is caught with its pants down. Inflation was always the downside to money printing. But its effects were delayed due to the fundamental shortage of borrowers and absent transmission systems to the real economy.</p><p><b>The Fed wants a reverse Wealth Effect</b></p><p>The Fed cannot control the supply shortages which emerged due to missing investments - especially in the energy sector. So, the Fed will try to crack down on the demand side to retake control of the inflation rate. It can achieve the goal of reducing demand most effectively by Quantitative Tightening, which will have the reverse effect of Quantitative Easing: It will devalue the collateral. The Fed hopes for a reverse wealth effect. It wants stock prices to depreciate and hopes it doesn&#39;t break the credit market or crush the labor market in the medium term.</p><p>Due to significant government debt, I believe the Fed will pivot in the future as the credit market gets distressed and inflation eases due to lower demand. But the turning point is still far away at this point. Long-only doesn&#39;t work anymore. I believe further downside is coming for global equities, especially the ones at the top of the food chain of all globally diversified ETFs - i.e., the companies with the biggest market capitalizations in the world: American Internet Companies. These are the companies that profited most from Quantitative Easing, and they will be the ones hurt most by Quantitative Tightening.</p><p>Going long and short in this environment is key if investors want to retain their purchasing power. Gaining purchasing power will be difficult due to inflation, but pair trades offer lower risk because of reduced directional market exposure.</p><p><b>Amazon and Alibaba as Proxy</b></p><p>Both Amazon and Alibaba operate mainly in the consumer discretionary segment. Admittedly, the net earnings of Amazon consist of huge contributions from the AWS segment, which is a completely different business with much stronger margins. In that regard, there is a substantial difference in the business models. The Cloud computing segment of Alibaba has just turned towards profitability, and Amazon is much further ahead. However, the revenues of both companies largely stem from E-commerce.</p><p>More importantly, 60% of all net sales of Amazon are in North America, and 26% constitute international sales. The remaining 14% consists of the cloud segment. Conversely, 74% of the net sales of Alibaba are in China, while 7% constitute international sales. The remaining 19% are cloud and other sales.</p><p><b>Why short Amazon?</b></p><p>The ongoing Fed tightening cycle is designed to hurt consumer demand in America via the reverse wealth effect. The average consumer in America will spend their income first on consumer staples and then on consumer discretionary items. Because prices of consumer staples items have increased due to cost-push inflation and wages are not responding in a similar manner (yet), the portion left for consumer discretionary spending is reduced. Furthermore, the cost side of Amazon&#39;s business increases due to higher energy and shipping costs. Because consumers are unable to spend the same portion of their income on consumer discretionary items, Amazon does not have much pricing power. Therefore the margins of its main business will most likely compress.</p><p>Currently, Amazon is still one of the biggest companies by market capitalization. The stock profited massively from Quantitative Easing and will be hurt by Quantitative Tightening to a similar degree, as explained above.</p><p>Because of growth forecasts and ETF inflows, the stock is trading at a high valuation. The P/E (FWD) is currently at 114x. EV/EBITDA (FWD) stands at 16x, and the P/FCF (FWD) is at 17x. If the revenue growth of Amazon decreases further, the stocks could be revalued at a much lower multiple. Currently, Amazon is still expected to grow revenues in 2022 by ~$55 billion (or ~12%). Current EPS estimates point towards a rapid recovery in 2022. I don&#39;t believe that is likely to happen.</p><p><b>Why long Alibaba?</b></p><p>The Chinese macroeconomic environment is currently ahead of the American macroeconomic environment. The Chinese economy suffered a big drawdown due to the mandated lockdowns and COVID restrictions. The China Caixin Manufacturing PMIdroppedto a low of 46 in April and started to reverse in May. Both output and new orders in China fell at a softer rate amid further declines in both export orders and employment. It is likely that the Chinese economy is already through the worst of this economic downturn. From now onwards, consumer spending growth is poised to return to positive territory.</p><p>Chinese policymakers still have room for accommodative fiscal and monetary policy as the inflation rates remain low. In May 2022, China cut the borrowing rate of the five-year loan prime rate (LPR) by 15 basis points to 4.45% to stimulate the housing market. The People&#39;s Bank of China kept the rate on its one-year medium-term lending facility (MLF) at 2.85%. The Chinese policymakers seem hesitant to stimulate the economy in an aggressive way because the Fed is tightening financial conditions at the same time. However, the monetary policy remains neutral in China.</p><p>In 2021, Alibaba got hit by the Chinese regulatory tech crackdown. Alibaba had to pay a $2.8 billion fine for anti-monopoly violations. The company lost ~50% of its market cap during that time. Financial media and investment banks deemed Chinese Equities to be &#34;uninvestable&#34;. However, recentlyJPMorganupgraded some Chinese stocks from neutral to overweight in 2022, and many others from underweight to neutral. Other investment banks followed. The Chinese regulators have signaled an easing of the tech crackdown. They have been aware of the VIE loophole for years and have not acted. It is not in China&#39;s interest to destroy offshore Chinese companies by challenging the existing VIEs. The VIE risk is now sufficiently priced in, as analysts had talked about it extensively and continue to do so. The worst for Alibaba seems to be over.</p><p>Because of the selloff, Alibaba trades at significantly lower multiples. The P/E (FWD) is currently at 15x. EV/EBITDA (FWD) stands at 11x, and the P/FCF (FWD) is at 10x. Alibaba is expected to grow revenues in 2022 by only ~$4 billion (or 3%). Current EPS estimates expect stagnant earnings growth for the next four quarters. I believe Alibaba can surprise to the upside.</p><p>The Charts speak for themselves <img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0d5cf7f1ea0742a9c2111a779c35014b\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Data by YCharts</p><p>The stock prices of Alibaba and Amazon have correlated strongly during the last few years. However, in late 2020 the stock of Alibaba erased all of its gains since its IPO and fell ~70%.

Much of my reasoning stems not from the respective companies' business models but from macroeconomic head- and tailwinds and fiscal and monetary policy differences between China and the USA. The business models of Alibaba and Amazon are relatively comparable and therefore, a good proxy for my macro pair trade idea.I suggest this trade for the coming 6-12 months. If readers believe that the similarities between both companies are not sufficient for a pair trade, I suggest expressing the same idea via going long Chinese Internet Equities via the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (KWEB) and short American Internet Equities via the Nasdaq (NDX).The Market has turnedThe Fed tightening is the single most important factor in equity markets today. After the Great Financial Crisis in 2008, the continuous provision of easy money from the Fed via Quantitative Easing resulted in US equities surging. Actively managed ETFs and funds underperformed because everybody could be sure that at some point, the Fed will step in to save the day.The fundamental reasoning of the Fed policies was that lower interest rates would spur credit demand of businesses and consumers because of cheaper debt costs. However, after the financial crisis, there were fewer investment opportunities for companies worthwhile pursuing. Additionally, many consumers and businesses saw their collateral collapse and thus were unwilling to borrow until their balance sheets were repaired. This process takes time to unwind. Thus, the economy had a shortage of borrowers for 14 years, and the Fed couldn't address the problem by lowering the debt costs. QE did almost nothing to the real economy. But it propped up the collateral.Fundamentally, the last 40 years have been disinflationary. Central Banks around the world expanded the money supply because there was no downside to printing money, as inflation was low and stable. The resulting wealth effects of these policies were massive, and the gap between poor and rich widened.Data by YChartsThe disinflationary environment vanished during the last 1.5 years because of two reasons. Firstly, the interconnection of the expansive fiscal and monetary policy provided a possibility to print money and inject it into the real economy. Secondly, ongoing supply shortages of commodities due to lack of investment during the last decade increased the cost pressures of businesses and consumers, resulting in cost-push inflation. The cost-push inflation now threatens to translate into a price/wage spiral. The Fed was too expansive during the last 14 years without major effects on the real economy. In March 2020, liquidity provision got to absurd levels. No, as the previously printed money arrives in the real economy, the Fed is caught with its pants down. Inflation was always the downside to money printing. But its effects were delayed due to the fundamental shortage of borrowers and absent transmission systems to the real economy.The Fed wants a reverse Wealth EffectThe Fed cannot control the supply shortages which emerged due to missing investments - especially in the energy sector. So, the Fed will try to crack down on the demand side to retake control of the inflation rate. It can achieve the goal of reducing demand most effectively by Quantitative Tightening, which will have the reverse effect of Quantitative Easing: It will devalue the collateral. The Fed hopes for a reverse wealth effect. It wants stock prices to depreciate and hopes it doesn't break the credit market or crush the labor market in the medium term.Due to significant government debt, I believe the Fed will pivot in the future as the credit market gets distressed and inflation eases due to lower demand. But the turning point is still far away at this point. Long-only doesn't work anymore. I believe further downside is coming for global equities, especially the ones at the top of the food chain of all globally diversified ETFs - i.e., the companies with the biggest market capitalizations in the world: American Internet Companies.

There is a lot of negativity out there, about themarkets in general and the economy.</p><p>Many already are fully convinced that we are heading for a recession. While this is possible, up to now, there are no signs yet. The Fed&#39;s Beige Book last week showed that 8 of the 12 Districts expect slowing growth in the future but at the moment, but just 3 thought there would be a recession coming. But all 12 still see growth right now. If a recession is not coming, we will see a great upswing in stock prices. But even if there will be a recession, a lot of that has already priced in. If it&#39;s a severe recession, there could of course be more downside, that&#39;s for sure, but that&#39;s also why I always scale in slowly over time, over years.</p><p>Because the markets (and interest rates) have changed, I think it&#39;s important to emphasize profitability more now. But, of course, we still look at the future and that&#39;s why you may be surprised that I still pick some &#34;expensive&#34; stocks. You&#39;ll see my reasoning, though.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CRWD\">CrowdStrike</a></p><p>CrowdStrike (CRWD) is a cybersecurity company that works through a cloud platform. Its competitive advantage is that it has a lightweight agent that makes sure your computer (or any other endpoint) doesn&#39;t slow down and you don&#39;t even have to reboot for installation or updates. It expands its Falcon platform very fast with new products and as a result, its dollar-based net retention rate is very high at more than 120% in every quarter since its IPO.</p><p>There is sometimes confusion between dollar-based net retention and dollar-based net expansion, therefore a fast explanation. You take your full set of customers at the end of Q1 2021 and you see what they spend. Let&#39;s say $100M to make it easy. With a dollar-based net retention rate, DBNRR, you measure how much the same customers spend right now, including customers that went away or went belly-up.</p><p>For a DBNRR of 120%, your customers have to spend 20% more than they did last year, even if you include the ones that are not customers anymore. For dollar-based net<i>expansion</i>rate, you only count the dollar amount of those who staid as customers. Net expansion rates make sense for companies where there are a lot of temporary customers, like political campaigners using Twilio (TWLO), for example. With net expansion numbers, you can have 120% and still see negative revenue growth and that&#39;s why DBNRR numbers are much clearer and it&#39;s so impressive that CrowdStrike has been seeing such high numbers.</p><p>The stock had held up pretty well even during this growth crash, as it&#39;s a fantastic company. But right now, it&#39;s down 42% from its highs, after being down more than 50% a few weeks ago.</p><p>Could the stock drop more? Of course, that&#39;s always possible. It still trades at a forward PS ratio (price to sales) of 15. In this environment, that is a premium. But unlike a lot of other companies, it&#39;s highly profitable. It had a Free Cash Flow of $604.3M in the trailing twelve months.</p><p>With a current market cap of almost $40B, that means that CrowdStrike still trades at a price to free cash flow level of about 65 times. Not cheap, of course, but you have to look at the company&#39;s growth profile here.</p><p>What I mean is that CrowdStrike had a free-cash-flow margin of 37% over the trailing twelve months. So I think the company can generate stable FCF of around 35% to 40%.</p><p>Looking at the earnings estimates for the next five years, you see that CrowdStrike is estimated to have $6.65B of revenue in 2026 (reporting in January 2027).</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f9f068c6fed5fb8d367341eb391627c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"132\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>With the company constantly beating the earnings, I think it&#39;s safe to say that it will be higher. Take $7B (and even that is still conservative). That would mean FCF between $2.5B and $2.8B. The 5-year P/FCF looks to be in the range of 10.7 and 12 then, and that for a company expected to grow for much longer at high speed.</p><p>If you want to put that in perspective, PepsiCo (PEP), a stable stalwart, had $6.3B of FCF on total revenue of $79.5B last year. That&#39;s an FCF margin of 8%. It trades at an estimated 2026 FCF multiple of around 30 times, much higher than CrowdStrike.</p><p>Which stock is expensive for long-term investors, then? Pepsi is just a random example that I took and I have nothing against the company. There are also dividends and buybacks involved, but I think that this shows you the context that what can look expensive by one metric (PS ratio) doesn&#39;t necessarily mean it is expensive for long-term investors.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DDOG\">Datadog</a></p><p>Datadog (DDOG) is an observability platform. The software and hardware systems of companies become much more complex and you have to know exactly where something goes wrong or it&#39;s not 100% efficient. You could call what Datadog does Monitoring-as-a-Service. The company has innovated fast over the years. It started with infrastructure and the company added APM (app performance management) and logs, making it the first fully-functioning platform to unite these. It kept expanding its offerings with User Experience Monitoring and Security.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5628150f152a4438ce42d101a4e07106\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"333\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>Datadog is also very free-cash-flow positive. In the trailing twelve months, it had $347.8M of FCF.</p><p>And the numbers are growing fast. These are the four last quarters:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec20e9c931f682f5a4295baf9f981a8a\" tg-width=\"587\" tg-height=\"34\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>In the last quarter, Datadog had $363M in revenue. $126.3M divided by $363M means that Datadog has an FCF margin of 35%.</p><p>The consensus estimate for 2026 revenue is $5.56B.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e263e219b0065b9a38112ae581660db1\" tg-width=\"623\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/>With Datadog&#39;s outperformance, I think $6B is definitely possible. If you take an FCF margin of 40% there, you get $2.4B. With a current market cap of around $27B, this means that the stock is trading at a 2026 FCF multiple estimates of around 11. I&#39;m a buyer here.</p><p><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ROKU\">Roku</a></p><p>I&#39;m sure several readers will be surprised to see Roku (ROKU) here.

While its valuation looks expensive, looking forward, it's not outrageous.Datadog has a FCF margin of 34% and is similar to CrowdStrike. It can definitely grow into its valuation fast.Maybe somewhat more surprising to some readers, Roku has a FCF margin of 15%, even with the supply-chain issues. It's the CTV leader in the US, Canada, Mexico and Latam and is already cheap now.IntroductionWhen the markets turn, you often see a lot of investors following the herd but it often pays to do exactly the opposite, although that may feel very uncomfortable over the short term. There is a lot of negativity out there, about themarkets in general and the economy.Many already are fully convinced that we are heading for a recession. While this is possible, up to now, there are no signs yet. The Fed's Beige Book last week showed that 8 of the 12 Districts expect slowing growth in the future but at the moment, but just 3 thought there would be a recession coming. But all 12 still see growth right now. If a recession is not coming, we will see a great upswing in stock prices. But even if there will be a recession, a lot of that has already priced in. If it's a severe recession, there could of course be more downside, that's for sure, but that's also why I always scale in slowly over time, over years.Because the markets (and interest rates) have changed, I think it's important to emphasize profitability more now. But, of course, we still look at the future and that's why you may be surprised that I still pick some \"expensive\" stocks. You'll see my reasoning, though.CrowdStrikeCrowdStrike (CRWD) is a cybersecurity company that works through a cloud platform. Its competitive advantage is that it has a lightweight agent that makes sure your computer (or any other endpoint) doesn't slow down and you don't even have to reboot for installation or updates. It expands its Falcon platform very fast with new products and as a result, its dollar-based net retention rate is very high at more than 120% in every quarter since its IPO.There is sometimes confusion between dollar-based net retention and dollar-based net expansion, therefore a fast explanation. You take your full set of customers at the end of Q1 2021 and you see what they spend. Let's say $100M to make it easy. With a dollar-based net retention rate, DBNRR, you measure how much the same customers spend right now, including customers that went away or went belly-up.For a DBNRR of 120%, your customers have to spend 20% more than they did last year, even if you include the ones that are not customers anymore. For dollar-based netexpansionrate, you only count the dollar amount of those who staid as customers. Net expansion rates make sense for companies where there are a lot of temporary customers, like political campaigners using Twilio (TWLO), for example. With net expansion numbers, you can have 120% and still see negative revenue growth and that's why DBNRR numbers are much clearer and it's so impressive that CrowdStrike has been seeing such high numbers.The stock had held up pretty well even during this growth crash, as it's a fantastic company. But right now, it's down 42% from its highs, after being down more than 50% a few weeks ago.Could the stock drop more? Of course, that's always possible. It still trades at a forward PS ratio (price to sales) of 15. In this environment, that is a premium. But unlike a lot of other companies, it's highly profitable. It had a Free Cash Flow of $604.3M in the trailing twelve months.With a current market cap of almost $40B, that means that CrowdStrike still trades at a price to free cash flow level of about 65 times. Not cheap, of course, but you have to look at the company's growth profile here.What I mean is that CrowdStrike had a free-cash-flow margin of 37% over the trailing twelve months. So I think the company can generate stable FCF of around 35% to 40%.Looking at the earnings estimates for the next five years, you see that CrowdStrike is estimated to have $6.65B of revenue in 2026 (reporting in January 2027).With the company constantly beating the earnings, I think it's safe to say that it will be higher. Take $7B (and even that is still conservative). That would mean FCF between $2.5B and $2.8B. The 5-year P/FCF looks to be in the range of 10.7 and 12 then, and that for a company expected to grow for much longer at high speed.If you want to put that in perspective, PepsiCo (PEP), a stable stalwart, had $6.3B of FCF on total revenue of $79.5B last year. That's an FCF margin of 8%. It trades at an estimated 2026 FCF multiple of around 30 times, much higher than CrowdStrike.Which stock is expensive for long-term investors, then? Pepsi is just a random example that I took and I have nothing against the company. There are also dividends and buybacks involved, but I think that this shows you the context that what can look expensive by one metric (PS ratio) doesn't necessarily mean it is expensive for long-term investors.DatadogDatadog (DDOG) is an observability platform.

This latest move has implications not only for the company but for the entire Electric Vehicle / EV market. On one hand, the price cut ultimately affects the business’ near-term profitability. But on another hand, I view the price cut as a tactical move that will strengthen competitive positioning under the ongoing challenging macro backdrop. The situation has created uncertainty, and as of today, the stock has dropped by ~11% since the Q1 2023 earnings call last week.</p><p>For the long-term, I have a bullish view of Tesla. Notwithstanding its premium valuation, occasional shortcomings, the quirks of its co-founding CEO Elon Musk, as well as its exposure to the cyclical nature of the auto industry, I believe that overall Tesla is one of the most attractive growth stories we can find today. It is a tech company that actively innovates to problem-solve in a very challenging industry, yet operates with a proven track record of consistency of strong growth and profitability.</p><p>This first coverage of Tesla will reflect my long-term view. I start with my viewpoint on the price cuts and how they can create positive consequences as part of Tesla&#39;s competitive strategy based on my latest understanding of where the company stands as of Q1:</p><ul><li><p>Tesla can more than afford to do a price cut. It remains one of the most profitable companies in the auto sector, even after price cuts.</p></li><li><p>Pricing is only one of the two ways to drive profitability. The other one is the cost structure. I believe that Tesla has both the best infrastructure and capability to implement any cost-based strategy to drive higher profitability if it wishes and needs to.</p></li><li><p>I expect the price cuts to be tactical and temporary in nature to capture stronger competitive positioning and volume during the current economic downturn.</p></li></ul><p>In the end, I highlight a few long-term growth and profitability drivers for Tesla between today and FY 2027 as I attempt to estimate a fair target price based on a probability-weighted 5-year revenue forecast.</p><h2>Tesla Can Afford Price Cuts</h2><p>Since the beginning of the year, Tesla has been lowering the price of its vehicles globally to create more demand during economic downturn. Consequently, we saw a record delivery number in Q1 2023. With ~422k deliveries, Tesla beat its previous record of 405k deliveries achieved in the previous quarter, Q4 2022.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6a9cad58722f3c1b6b14ab7649cd4ae9\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"235\"/></p><p>ychart - gross margin TSLA</p><p></p><p>On the flipside, the price cuts have affected Tesla’s profitability. Gross margin was ~19% in Q1, a quite significant decline from ~24% in Q4 2022. Likewise, Q1 diluted EPS was also down to $0.73 from $1.07 the previous quarter. However, despite the financial impact, I believe that it would be underestimating Tesla to suggest that the price cut was not a calculated move that came out of desperation.</p><p>To begin with, Tesla still maintains a relatively very healthy gross margin. Excluding the non-automotive segments, gross margin stands at ~21% instead of ~19%. For context, mass-market-focused traditional auto manufacturers such as Ford (F) and General Motors (GM) had gross margins between 12% - 15% in the most recent quarter, while the luxury auto makers like BMW (OTCPK:BMWYY) or Mercedes Benz (OTCPK:MBGYY)’s gross margins were between 17% - 21%.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6bf6cd99014f7d1c5978143b85c152db\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"270\"/></p><p>author&#39;s own analysis - auto / EV universe</p><p></p><p>Except for Tesla and BYD (OTCPK:BYDDY), most EV-only manufacturers today struggle to generate double-digit gross margins. Tesla, moreover, produced best-in-class gross margin similar to those of luxury automakers even after the price cut.</p><h2>Cost-based Strategies To Drive Higher Margins</h2><p>I believe that while pricing strategy is important, the capability to drive down production costs remains a superior profitability lever for any auto company, especially EV-focused ones. Unlike in the traditional auto industry where all of the automakers have probably reached the ceiling when it comes to innovating new ways to reduce production costs, EV is still an evolving industry that will benefit a lot from technological innovation across the board, especially in supply chain, design, and manufacturing - key areas driving production costs.</p><p>EV companies can usually be differentiated by their technological innovation and approach in those areas. EV startup <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARVL\">Arrival</a> (ARVL), for instance, innovates by using a specialized assembly approach to fit the process of microfactory-based manufacturing which has a lower capex requirement and footprint than a conventional factory. The idea is that Arrival should be able to produce cost-efficient EVs with the concept.</p><p>I continue to anticipate various cost-reduction opportunities that leading EV companies like Tesla can capture through technological innovation, and therefore, I also see opportunities where Tesla can still generate outsized profit margins even if it wishes to continue its cost-leadership pricing strategy. In Investor Day 2023, I noticed a few upcoming technologies that will put Tesla further ahead of its competition in terms of bringing down EV production costs:</p><ul><li><p>Next-generation vehicle manufacturing process: a new manufacturing approach where parts of the cars, such as the front, rear, sides, and doors will be built by different operators on separate lines in parallel pre-assembly. Tesla expects that this new approach will reduce the manufacturing footprint by at least 40% and bring down the Cost of Goods Sold / COGS per unit by 50%. This concept of redefining the traditional manufacturing process to reduce footprint is similar to what Arrival is doing.</p></li><li><p>New powertrain transistors with 75% less SiC / Silicon Carbide: SiC is often used in power electronic components such as converters or inverters. In an EV, these components are integrated into a powertrain, which can easily make up ~20% of the total cost of an EV. It seems that Tesla is coming up with a new way to design their proprietary power electronic components without using the expensive SiC.</p></li><li><p>Switch to 48V electrical architecture - Tesla plans to adopt a 48V system to reduce current by a factor of four in comparison to the 12V systems it is using in its models. The reduction in current also means that Tesla can use smaller, less expensive wires than it is currently using.</p></li><li><p>Replacement of lead acid with lithium-ion / Li-ion batteries - Tesla is also looking to use Li-ion batteries for its new low-voltage system in all of its next-generation vehicles, which will reduce mass by 87%. Previously, Tesla already made the change to 12V Li-ion batteries in both models S and X. With the vehicle being lighter, we should ideally expect range and COGS improvements.</p></li></ul><h2>Competition During Downturn</h2><p>Tesla&#39;s recent decision to cut prices on its vehicles has the potential to drive demand during a period of economic downturn, while also helping the company expand its production capacity and revenue growth.</p><p>Aside from increasing the affordability of Tesla vehicles, I believe that the lower price point can attract new customers who may have previously been hesitant to make the switch to electric vehicles. Moreover, the price cuts can also enable Tesla to drive enough demand to scale up production, leading to increased efficiency and higher overall output.</p><p>I think that the price cut is also an opportunity for Tesla to also put pressure on its competitors. More recently, Tesla’s price cuts have been followed by some rivals, such as XPeng (XPEV) and Ford. Ford most recently lowered the price of its Mustang Mach-E, a model comparable to Tesla’s Model Y.</p><p>The impact of price cut will be much harder on EV makers like Lucid (LCID), Xpeng, or Polestar (PSNYW) Given their relatively lower production capacity as early-stage EV makers, it could be financially damaging for these companies to match Tesla&#39;s price point. On the other hand, maintaining their price can lead to conceding a lot of their market shares to Tesla.</p><h2>Risk</h2><p>As part of its ambition to dominate the global EV market, Tesla has made a significant investment in China, the biggest EV market in the world. Tesla&#39;s Gigafactory in Shanghai is one of its key assets in the region, and the company has plans to expand production capacity at the facility in the coming years. However, the company is facing intense competition from both established automakers and new entrants.</p><p>This intense competition is a significant risk for Tesla, as China remains a critical market where Tesla generated ~22% of the company&#39;s total sales as of FY 2022. Any significant decline in Tesla&#39;s market share in China could have a significant impact on the company&#39;s overall financial performance.</p><p>BYD is Tesla&#39;s biggest competitor in China and has already surpassed Tesla in terms of units sold in 2022. Additionally, Nio and XPeng are also vying for a share of the market. Furthermore, Tesla faces other risks in China beyond the competition. This includes a complex regulatory environment, potential intellectual property theft, geopolitical tensions between the US and China, and cybersecurity risks.</p><p>On the other hand, a lot of growth stories on Tesla, including my own version, have been built on its reputation as a technological innovator in the EV industry.</p><p>While these technological innovations can be game changer, they also carry noteworthy risks as Tesla attempts to bring them to market. Full Self Driving / FSD technology, in particular, exposes the company to potential reputational risk. Tesla’s FSD has come under scrutiny in recent months due to concerns over safety and the accuracy of the system.</p><p>Cybertruck is another innovation that presents a potential risk for Tesla. The vehicle&#39;s radical design may appeal to some consumers, but it could also be a turnoff for others. Cybertruck&#39;s success will depend on its ability to attract a broad range of consumers, and failing to do so will impact Tesla&#39;s overall growth prospects.</p><h2>Valuation/Pricing</h2><p>In estimating my target price for Tesla, I came up with a 5-year revenue forecast based on my version of the growth story under the probability-weighted bull vs bear scenarios.</p><p>1. Bull scenario (80% probability) - Deliveries to hit another record high in FY 2023, while revenue modestly grows by ~20% to ~$100 billion as we consider the effect of lower vehicle prices and ongoing economic downturn. I expect the economic downturn to soften starting in FY 2024 onwards and growth to gradually reaccelerate on a yearly basis to 50% until FY 2027, similar to YoY growth in FY 2022. Tesla will end FY 2027 with ~$400 billion in revenue and ~$3.3 trillion in market cap. The growth story depends on some assumptions:</p><ul><li><p>Tesla will see success in unlocking higher cost efficiencies per vehicle for all new models with its next-generation vehicle platform, driving higher operating margins from cost-based strategies. I would probably expect Tesla to launch this somewhere in 2024 or the beginning of 2025 and see operating margins expand to +20%.</p></li><li><p>On the revenue side, I expect Tesla’s capability to produce EVs with more efficient cost structures to enable entering the mass market, whether with its popular model 3 and model Y, or with a new model). I also expect Tesla’s pricing strategy to drive market share growth further at the expense of its competitors.</p></li><li><p>While it is relatively difficult to set an expectation regarding the numbers for Cybertruck and FSD, I would expect minimal revenue contributions (&lt; 2%) from these segments starting in FY 2024. For comparison, Tesla’s energy business contributed ~4% of Tesla’s overall revenue as of Q1 2023.</p></li><li><p>Tesla’s energy and storage segment, in the meantime, will continue to grow and make up at least 10% of the business by FY 2027, driven by its Megapack business globally, especially in China, where Tesla already set up a factory in Shanghai to make Megapack batteries.</p></li><li><p>From a valuation multiple perspective, I will be a little conservative and assign an FY 2027 P/S of ~8x for Tesla, a figure that is just above today&#39;s ~7x P/S. This P/S reflects Tesla&#39;s continuing EV market leadership, outsized growth and profit margins compared to the rest of its competitors due to its technological leadership (e.g. next-generation vehicle platform), and most importantly the success of broader FSD roll-outs that will earn the company a $5 to $7 billion of additional revenue at SaaS-like margins in FY 2027. As a caveat, my conservative P/S is not taking into account Tesla&#39;s very high popularity, which may drive exceptionally high market demand for the stock in any future milestone-reaching event. When Tesla reached its first year of positive net income in 2020, we saw the stock traded as high as +28x P/S. As Elon Musk said during the recent earnings call, FSD remains the next key milestone for Tesla. With Tesla unlocking next-generation platform and then FSD gradually into FY 2027, I see a possibility of P/S to expand significantly from ~7x level today. As such, the midpoint of 7x - 28x P/S would also be appropriate to account for that technical aspect of the stock.</p></li></ul><p>2. Bear scenario (20% probability) - Revenue modestly grows by ~20% to ~$100 billion, but the prolonged economic downturn affected Tesla’s flexibility in pricing strategy and overall demand for EVs into FY 2024 onwards. Growth to gradually subside from 18% to merely 10% in FY 2027. Tesla will end FY 2027 with merely ~$171 billion of revenue and ~$1 trillion in market cap. Assumptions are as follows:</p><ul><li><p>Tesla to experience further delay in launching its next-generation vehicle platform, and face operational challenges to fall short of its promise of lowering per-unit cost.</p></li><li><p>The same thing with FSD, Tesla will continue to face delays and difficulties in rolling out FSD in various states and other geographies due to regulatory barriers.</p></li><li><p>Cybertruck to see minimal demand and will be discontinued in FY 2025.</p></li><li><p>US-China tension to escalate and affect the Chinese government’s relationship with Tesla, making the Chinese government unofficially favor BYD and limiting Tesla’s flexibility and potential upside in China.</p></li><li><p>From a valuation multiple perspective, the bear outlook would reward Tesla with ~6x P/S, which is slightly lower than today’s level.</p></li></ul><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1d8ec403bdcb4ed71a47b099411f1b00\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"332\"/></p><p>author&#39;s own analysis - TSLA 5-year target price model</p><p></p><p>I arrived at an FY 2027 target price of ~$228 for the bear scenario and an FY 2027 target price of ~$729 per share for the bull scenario. Further, I estimate Tesla to have around 30% of share dilution between FY 2023 and FY 2027, the same for both scenarios.</p><p>Consolidating these two scenarios, I arrived at a probability-weighted (80/20 for bull/bear) FY 2027 target price of $628.9 per share. This figure is higher than the all-time-high ~$407 per share in November 2021.</p><p>Applying a discount rate of 20%, which represents the fair expected return for a growth stock like Tesla, the weighted target price in today’s term would be ~$253 per share.</p><p>This means that Tesla is undervalued today, as the stock is currently trading at ~$170 per share. For investors, this simply means that $253 is the maximum entry point to purchase the stock to realize that 20% return annually until FY 2027, where we expect to see a price per share of $628.9, based on my model. The difference between $170 and ~$253 represents an opportunity to realize discounts on the target price.</p><p>One more thing I would like to highlight and elaborate further is the application of P/S instead of P/E valuation multiple in my model. While P/E is commonly used in evaluating traditional auto stocks, I view P/S a more fair metric in evaluating EV makers, who aside from Tesla and BYD, are still largely loss-making and building production capacities to meet growing demand. Pure play EV makers like Tesla should also be valued differently than the traditional auto makers entering EV industry. Pure play EV makers are generally more agile, not burdened with the legacy Internal Combustion Engine / ICE business, and can focus all their resources on developing and refining their EV technologies and business models across the value chain (e.g. assembly process, powertrain, battery, self-driving, etc).</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Tesla&#39;s recent price cuts have garnered attention and affected the company&#39;s short-term profitability, nonetheless, I see it as a strategy that could strengthen their competitive positioning. Despite recent selloffs due to fear of Tesla conceding margins further, Tesla remains one of the most attractive growth stories.</p><p>As it stands, I also see multiple ways for Tesla to drive higher margins through its cost-based strategy. I am also of the view that the price cuts are likely temporary and aimed at capturing market share during the current economic downturn.</p><p>I expect Tesla to continue being exposed to several risk factors, and the price cut is the least of concerns. Intense competition from established automakers and new entrants like BYD, Nio, and XPeng in China and other geographies is something investors need to pay attention to. China is a critical market, and any decline in Tesla&#39;s market share could impact the company&#39;s financial performance. Nonetheless, Tesla’s China presence also comes with its own set of geopolitical risks. Meanwhile, new initiatives like FSD and the Cybertruck also carry risks, such as regulatory, reputational, and demand risks.</p><p>I continue to maintain an optimistic view of Tesla. Based on my growth story and projection, its probability-weighted target price is around $253 per share, making the stock undervalued today. Investors should aim to purchase below $253 for a maximum 20% annual return until FY 2027 when we hope to observe a $628.9 per share price target according to the model.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Tesla: Price Cuts Are The Least Of Concerns</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\">\nTesla: Price Cuts Are The Least Of Concerns\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-05-09 20:46 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4601545-tesla-price-cuts-least-of-concerns><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) has recently made headlines and drawn the attention of both enthusiasts and skeptics with a series of price cuts on all of its models.

This latest move has implications not only for the company but for the entire Electric Vehicle / EV market. On one hand, the price cut ultimately affects the business’ near-term profitability. But on another hand, I view the price cut as a tactical move that will strengthen competitive positioning under the ongoing challenging macro backdrop. The situation has created uncertainty, and as of today, the stock has dropped by ~11% since the Q1 2023 earnings call last week.For the long-term, I have a bullish view of Tesla. Notwithstanding its premium valuation, occasional shortcomings, the quirks of its co-founding CEO Elon Musk, as well as its exposure to the cyclical nature of the auto industry, I believe that overall Tesla is one of the most attractive growth stories we can find today. It is a tech company that actively innovates to problem-solve in a very challenging industry, yet operates with a proven track record of consistency of strong growth and profitability.This first coverage of Tesla will reflect my long-term view. I start with my viewpoint on the price cuts and how they can create positive consequences as part of Tesla's competitive strategy based on my latest understanding of where the company stands as of Q1:Tesla can more than afford to do a price cut. It remains one of the most profitable companies in the auto sector, even after price cuts.Pricing is only one of the two ways to drive profitability. The other one is the cost structure. I believe that Tesla has both the best infrastructure and capability to implement any cost-based strategy to drive higher profitability if it wishes and needs to.I expect the price cuts to be tactical and temporary in nature to capture stronger competitive positioning and volume during the current economic downturn.In the end, I highlight a few long-term growth and profitability drivers for Tesla between today and FY 2027 as I attempt to estimate a fair target price based on a probability-weighted 5-year revenue forecast.Tesla Can Afford Price CutsSince the beginning of the year, Tesla has been lowering the price of its vehicles globally to create more demand during economic downturn. Consequently, we saw a record delivery number in Q1 2023. With ~422k deliveries, Tesla beat its previous record of 405k deliveries achieved in the previous quarter, Q4 2022.ychart - gross margin TSLAOn the flipside, the price cuts have affected Tesla’s profitability. Gross margin was ~19% in Q1, a quite significant decline from ~24% in Q4 2022. Likewise, Q1 diluted EPS was also down to $0.73 from $1.07 the previous quarter. However, despite the financial impact, I believe that it would be underestimating Tesla to suggest that the price cut was not a calculated move that came out of desperation.To begin with, Tesla still maintains a relatively very healthy gross margin. Excluding the non-automotive segments, gross margin stands at ~21% instead of ~19%. For context, mass-market-focused traditional auto manufacturers such as Ford (F) and General Motors (GM) had gross margins between 12% - 15% in the most recent quarter, while the luxury auto makers like BMW (OTCPK:BMWYY) or Mercedes Benz (OTCPK:MBGYY)’s gross margins were between 17% - 21%.author's own analysis - auto / EV universeExcept for Tesla and BYD (OTCPK:BYDDY), most EV-only manufacturers today struggle to generate double-digit gross margins. Tesla, moreover, produced best-in-class gross margin similar to those of luxury automakers even after the price cut.Cost-based Strategies To Drive Higher MarginsI believe that while pricing strategy is important, the capability to drive down production costs remains a superior profitability lever for any auto company, especially EV-focused ones. Unlike in the traditional auto industry where all of the automakers have probably reached the ceiling when it comes to innovating new ways to reduce production costs, EV is still an evolving industry that will benefit a lot from technological innovation across the board, especially in supply chain, design, and manufacturing - key areas driving production costs.EV companies can usually be differentiated by their technological innovation and approach in those areas. EV startup Arrival (ARVL), for instance, innovates by using a specialized assembly approach to fit the process of microfactory-based manufacturing which has a lower capex requirement and footprint than a conventional factory. The idea is that Arrival should be able to produce cost-efficient EVs with the concept.I continue to anticipate various cost-reduction opportunities that leading EV companies like Tesla can capture through technological innovation, and therefore, I also see opportunities where Tesla can still generate outsized profit margins even if it wishes to continue its cost-leadership pricing strategy. In Investor Day 2023, I noticed a few upcoming technologies that will put Tesla further ahead of its competition in terms of bringing down EV production costs:Next-generation vehicle manufacturing process: a new manufacturing approach where parts of the cars, such as the front, rear, sides, and doors will be built by different operators on separate lines in parallel pre-assembly. Tesla expects that this new approach will reduce the manufacturing footprint by at least 40% and bring down the Cost of Goods Sold / COGS per unit by 50%. This concept of redefining the traditional manufacturing process to reduce footprint is similar to what Arrival is doing.New powertrain transistors with 75% less SiC / Silicon Carbide: SiC is often used in power electronic components such as converters or inverters. In an EV, these components are integrated into a powertrain, which can easily make up ~20% of the total cost of an EV. It seems that Tesla is coming up with a new way to design their proprietary power electronic components without using the expensive SiC.Switch to 48V electrical architecture - Tesla plans to adopt a 48V system to reduce current by a factor of four in comparison to the 12V systems it is using in its models.

Previously, Tesla already made the change to 12V Li-ion batteries in both models S and X.

Moreover, the price cuts can also enable Tesla to drive enough demand to scale up production, leading to increased efficiency and higher overall output.I think that the price cut is also an opportunity for Tesla to also put pressure on its competitors. More recently, Tesla’s price cuts have been followed by some rivals, such as XPeng (XPEV) and Ford. Ford most recently lowered the price of its Mustang Mach-E, a model comparable to Tesla’s Model Y.The impact of price cut will be much harder on EV makers like Lucid (LCID), Xpeng, or Polestar (PSNYW) Given their relatively lower production capacity as early-stage EV makers, it could be financially damaging for these companies to match Tesla's price point. On the other hand, maintaining their price can lead to conceding a lot of their market shares to Tesla.RiskAs part of its ambition to dominate the global EV market, Tesla has made a significant investment in China, the biggest EV market in the world. Tesla's Gigafactory in Shanghai is one of its key assets in the region, and the company has plans to expand production capacity at the facility in the coming years. However, the company is facing intense competition from both established automakers and new entrants.This intense competition is a significant risk for Tesla, as China remains a critical market where Tesla generated ~22% of the company's total sales as of FY 2022. Any significant decline in Tesla's market share in China could have a significant impact on the company's overall financial performance.BYD is Tesla's biggest competitor in China and has already surpassed Tesla in terms of units sold in 2022. Additionally, Nio and XPeng are also vying for a share of the market. Furthermore, Tesla faces other risks in China beyond the competition. This includes a complex regulatory environment, potential intellectual property theft, geopolitical tensions between the US and China, and cybersecurity risks.On the other hand, a lot of growth stories on Tesla, including my own version, have been built on its reputation as a technological innovator in the EV industry.While these technological innovations can be game changer, they also carry noteworthy risks as Tesla attempts to bring them to market. Full Self Driving / FSD technology, in particular, exposes the company to potential reputational risk. Tesla’s FSD has come under scrutiny in recent months due to concerns over safety and the accuracy of the system.Cybertruck is another innovation that presents a potential risk for Tesla. The vehicle's radical design may appeal to some consumers, but it could also be a turnoff for others. Cybertruck's success will depend on its ability to attract a broad range of consumers, and failing to do so will impact Tesla's overall growth prospects.Valuation/PricingIn estimating my target price for Tesla, I came up with a 5-year revenue forecast based on my version of the growth story under the probability-weighted bull vs bear scenarios.1. Bull scenario (80% probability) - Deliveries to hit another record high in FY 2023, while revenue modestly grows by ~20% to ~$100 billion as we consider the effect of lower vehicle prices and ongoing economic downturn. I expect the economic downturn to soften starting in FY 2024 onwards and growth to gradually reaccelerate on a yearly basis to 50% until FY 2027, similar to YoY growth in FY 2022. Tesla will end FY 2027 with ~$400 billion in revenue and ~$3.3 trillion in market cap. The growth story depends on some assumptions:Tesla will see success in unlocking higher cost efficiencies per vehicle for all new models with its next-generation vehicle platform, driving higher operating margins from cost-based strategies. I would probably expect Tesla to launch this somewhere in 2024 or the beginning of 2025 and see operating margins expand to +20%.On the revenue side, I expect Tesla’s capability to produce EVs with more efficient cost structures to enable entering the mass market, whether with its popular model 3 and model Y, or with a new model). I also expect Tesla’s pricing strategy to drive market share growth further at the expense of its competitors.While it is relatively difficult to set an expectation regarding the numbers for Cybertruck and FSD, I would expect minimal revenue contributions (< 2%) from these segments starting in FY 2024. For comparison, Tesla’s energy business contributed ~4% of Tesla’s overall revenue as of Q1 2023.Tesla’s energy and storage segment, in the meantime, will continue to grow and make up at least 10% of the business by FY 2027, driven by its Megapack business globally, especially in China, where Tesla already set up a factory in Shanghai to make Megapack batteries.From a valuation multiple perspective, I will be a little conservative and assign an FY 2027 P/S of ~8x for Tesla, a figure that is just above today's ~7x P/S. This P/S reflects Tesla's continuing EV market leadership, outsized growth and profit margins compared to the rest of its competitors due to its technological leadership (e.g. next-generation vehicle platform), and most importantly the success of broader FSD roll-outs that will earn the company a $5 to $7 billion of additional revenue at SaaS-like margins in FY 2027. As a caveat, my conservative P/S is not taking into account Tesla's very high popularity, which may drive exceptionally high market demand for the stock in any future milestone-reaching event. When Tesla reached its first year of positive net income in 2020, we saw the stock traded as high as +28x P/S. As Elon Musk said during the recent earnings call, FSD remains the next key milestone for Tesla. With Tesla unlocking next-generation platform and then FSD gradually into FY 2027, I see a possibility of P/S to expand significantly from ~7x level today. As such, the midpoint of 7x - 28x P/S would also be appropriate to account for that technical aspect of the stock.2. Bear scenario (20% probability) - Revenue modestly grows by ~20% to ~$100 billion, but the prolonged economic downturn affected Tesla’s flexibility in pricing strategy and overall demand for EVs into FY 2024 onwards. Growth to gradually subside from 18% to merely 10% in FY 2027. Tesla will end FY 2027 with merely ~$171 billion of revenue and ~$1 trillion in market cap. Assumptions are as follows:Tesla to experience further delay in launching its next-generation vehicle platform, and face operational challenges to fall short of its promise of lowering per-unit cost.The same thing with FSD, Tesla will continue to face delays and difficulties in rolling out FSD in various states and other geographies due to regulatory barriers.Cybertruck to see minimal demand and will be discontinued in FY 2025.US-China tension to escalate and affect the Chinese government’s relationship with Tesla, making the Chinese government unofficially favor BYD and limiting Tesla’s flexibility and potential upside in China.From a valuation multiple perspective, the bear outlook would reward Tesla with ~6x P/S, which is slightly lower than today’s level.author's own analysis - TSLA 5-year target price modelI arrived at an FY 2027 target price of ~$228 for the bear scenario and an FY 2027 target price of ~$729 per share for the bull scenario. Further, I estimate Tesla to have around 30% of share dilution between FY 2023 and FY 2027, the same for both scenarios.Consolidating these two scenarios, I arrived at a probability-weighted (80/20 for bull/bear) FY 2027 target price of $628.9 per share. This figure is higher than the all-time-high ~$407 per share in November 2021.Applying a discount rate of 20%, which represents the fair expected return for a growth stock like Tesla, the weighted target price in today’s term would be ~$253 per share.This means that Tesla is undervalued today, as the stock is currently trading at ~$170 per share. For investors, this simply means that $253 is the maximum entry point to purchase the stock to realize that 20% return annually until FY 2027, where we expect to see a price per share of $628.9, based on my model. The difference between $170 and ~$253 represents an opportunity to realize discounts on the target price.One more thing I would like to highlight and elaborate further is the application of P/S instead of P/E valuation multiple in my model. While P/E is commonly used in evaluating traditional auto stocks, I view P/S a more fair metric in evaluating EV makers, who aside from Tesla and BYD, are still largely loss-making and building production capacities to meet growing demand. Pure play EV makers like Tesla should also be valued differently than the traditional auto makers entering EV industry. Pure play EV makers are generally more agile, not burdened with the legacy Internal Combustion Engine / ICE business, and can focus all their resources on developing and refining their EV technologies and business models across the value chain (e.g. assembly process, powertrain, battery, self-driving, etc).ConclusionTesla's recent price cuts have garnered attention and affected the company's short-term profitability, nonetheless, I see it as a strategy that could strengthen their competitive positioning. Despite recent selloffs due to fear of Tesla conceding margins further, Tesla remains one of the most attractive growth stories.As it stands, I also see multiple ways for Tesla to drive higher margins through its cost-based strategy. I am also of the view that the price cuts are likely temporary and aimed at capturing market share during the current economic downturn.I expect Tesla to continue being exposed to several risk factors, and the price cut is the least of concerns. Intense competition from established automakers and new entrants like BYD, Nio, and XPeng in China and other geographies is something investors need to pay attention to. China is a critical market, and any decline in Tesla's market share could impact the company's financial performance. Nonetheless, Tesla’s China presence also comes with its own set of geopolitical risks. Meanwhile, new initiatives like FSD and the Cybertruck also carry risks, such as regulatory, reputational, and demand risks.I continue to maintain an optimistic view of Tesla. Based on my growth story and projection, its probability-weighted target price is around $253 per share, making the stock undervalued today. Investors should aim to purchase below $253 for a maximum 20% annual return until FY 2027 when we hope to observe a $628.9 per share price target according to the model.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":349,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9074047373,"gmtCreate":1658278199492,"gmtModify":1676536133058,"author":{"id":"3579245419278799","authorId":"3579245419278799","name":"CF2607","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/0c0208c3358e920993128b1b9f6f7b90","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579245419278799","authorIdStr":"3579245419278799"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yeah","listText":"Yeah","text":"Yeah","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9074047373","repostId":"2252242458","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2252242458","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":1658243820,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2252242458?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-07-19 23:17","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Shopify Partners With YouTube to Shore up Sales From Content Creators","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2252242458","media":"Reuters","summary":"July 19 (Reuters) - Shopify Inc on Tuesday announced a partnership with Alphabet Inc's YouTube to al","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>July 19 (Reuters) - Shopify Inc on Tuesday announced a partnership with Alphabet Inc&#39;s YouTube to allow merchants to sell through the video platform, as the Canadian company looks to tap into the growing number of content creators launching their own e-commerce stores.</p><p>The partnership, which builds on an existing one with Google, will allow merchants to integrate their online stores with YouTube, which reaches over two billion monthly users.</p><p>Shopify, which makes tools for merchants to set up their online stores, in June launched new features to help its clients sell to other businesses and on Twitter in a bid to counter a post-pandemic slowdown in online shopping.</p><p>The company lost its prime spot as Canada&#39;s most valuable company and its shares have lost more than three quarters of their value so far this year as consumers return to stores.</p><p>Shopify&#39;s director of product, marketplaces and creators, Amir Kabbara, said the partnership with YouTube would help boost conversion rate and in turn the gross merchandise volume, a key success metric, for the company.</p><p>Merchants can tag and pin products during live streams, show a curated list of products in a product shelf below on-demand videos and add a store tab under their YouTube channel to feature their products.</p><p>Shopify, which has also partnered with TikTok, Facebook, Instagram and other social media platforms, said it saw orders placed through such partner integrations quadruple in the first quarter of the year.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
