The provider of cloud-based subscription services served up encouraging quarterly results, slightly beating analyst revenue and profit targets. Zuora's retention rate clocked in at its strongest rate in a year.</li><li>Riot Blockchain was the biggest gainer, soaring 19% last week. It was a down week for cryptocurrencies in general, but the week did kick off with B. Riley analyst Lucas Pipes initiating coverage of Riot Blockchain with a buy rating and a $43 price target.</li><li>Finally, there was Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund. It inched 1% higher, also defying the dip in digital currencies. The exchange-traded fund owns stakes in five leading cryptocurrencies.</li></ul><p>Those three stocks averaged a 7.7% ascent for the week, fueled primarily by Riot Blockchain's bullish analyst initiation. The <b>S&amp;P 500</b> rose by 1.2% for the week, so I was wrong. Right now, I see <b>AMC Entertainment Holdings</b>&nbsp;(NYSE:AMC), Riot Blockchain, and <b>Oatly</b> (NASDAQ:OTLY) as vulnerable investments in the near term. Here's why I think these are three stocks to avoid this week.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1e02e19d87470e5036fa20402855d54e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2><b>1. AMC Entertainment</b></h2><p>It was a big weekend at the movies, and that may give the rally in AMC shares a lift early in the holiday-abridged trading week. It's not likely to last.</p><p>Before you figure this is more of the same from a multiplex permabear, keep in mind that I have had plenty of kind things to say about AMC in recent months.&nbsp;I argued that investors shouldn't bury AMC when it was trading for three bucks and change in late January, just two days before it became a meme stock. I went on to make the seemingly unfashionable move of arguing a bullish case for owning AMC and even making a case for the country's leading exhibitor to be a buyout candidate in the months to follow.</p><p>Finally, seven weeks ago I singled out AMC as a stock that can double again. It did go on to double, and it's on the verge of tripling from that starting line.</p><p>However, with the stock a multi-bagger -- and its share count nearly quadrupling over the past year -- we can no longer assess AMC as a turnaround story. It's trading for more than it was in its prime with an enterprise value of $23 billion. I don't think AMC is going under like so many bears out there, but it's hard for someone who has seen the good in the multiplex operator in the past to continue arguing that it's a fair value here. When the frenzy is done and the bulls and bears move on to fresh playthings this will be less than a $23 billion business.</p><h2>2. Riot Blockchain</h2><p>Riot Blockchain may have been bailed out by a bullish analyst initiation last week, but it can't escape gravity forever. Crypto mining is coming under fire for its heavy drain on natural resources, even to the point that it was banned in Iran last week after the country blamed the practice for power outages in some cities.</p><p>I'm a long-term believer in cryptocurrencies, but Riot Blockchain was overvalued even before the market for digital currencies started correcting sharply last month. I see it giving back a good chunk of the gains it scored last week.</p><h2>3. Oatly</h2><p>Oat milk is booming in popularity, making it an opportune time for Oatly to go public. The Oatly IPO was a success, but perhaps it's been <i>too</i> successful. Oatly commands a market cap of $14 billion. Who would pay 30 times trailing sales for a distributor of oat milk-based products?</p><p>It's certainly true that Oatly is growing quickly. Revenue more than doubled last year. However, Oatly had to pay up for that growth. Gross margin contracted last year, and its net loss nearly doubled.

The provider of cloud-based subscription services served up encouraging quarterly results, slightly beating analyst revenue and profit targets. Zuora's retention rate clocked in at its strongest rate in a year.Riot Blockchain was the biggest gainer, soaring 19% last week. It was a down week for cryptocurrencies in general, but the week did kick off with B. Riley analyst Lucas Pipes initiating coverage of Riot Blockchain with a buy rating and a $43 price target.Finally, there was Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund. It inched 1% higher, also defying the dip in digital currencies. The exchange-traded fund owns stakes in five leading cryptocurrencies.Those three stocks averaged a 7.7% ascent for the week, fueled primarily by Riot Blockchain's bullish analyst initiation. The S&P 500 rose by 1.2% for the week, so I was wrong. Right now, I see AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:AMC), Riot Blockchain, and Oatly (NASDAQ:OTLY) as vulnerable investments in the near term. Here's why I think these are three stocks to avoid this week.Image source: Getty Images.1. AMC EntertainmentIt was a big weekend at the movies, and that may give the rally in AMC shares a lift early in the holiday-abridged trading week. It's not likely to last.Before you figure this is more of the same from a multiplex permabear, keep in mind that I have had plenty of kind things to say about AMC in recent months. I argued that investors shouldn't bury AMC when it was trading for three bucks and change in late January, just two days before it became a meme stock. I went on to make the seemingly unfashionable move of arguing a bullish case for owning AMC and even making a case for the country's leading exhibitor to be a buyout candidate in the months to follow.Finally, seven weeks ago I singled out AMC as a stock that can double again. It did go on to double, and it's on the verge of tripling from that starting line.However, with the stock a multi-bagger -- and its share count nearly quadrupling over the past year -- we can no longer assess AMC as a turnaround story. It's trading for more than it was in its prime with an enterprise value of $23 billion. I don't think AMC is going under like so many bears out there, but it's hard for someone who has seen the good in the multiplex operator in the past to continue arguing that it's a fair value here. When the frenzy is done and the bulls and bears move on to fresh playthings this will be less than a $23 billion business.2. Riot BlockchainRiot Blockchain may have been bailed out by a bullish analyst initiation last week, but it can't escape gravity forever. Crypto mining is coming under fire for its heavy drain on natural resources, even to the point that it was banned in Iran last week after the country blamed the practice for power outages in some cities.I'm a long-term believer in cryptocurrencies, but Riot Blockchain was overvalued even before the market for digital currencies started correcting sharply last month. I see it giving back a good chunk of the gains it scored last week.3. OatlyOat milk is booming in popularity, making it an opportune time for Oatly to go public. The Oatly IPO was a success, but perhaps it's been too successful. Oatly commands a market cap of $14 billion. Who would pay 30 times trailing sales for a distributor of oat milk-based products?It's certainly true that Oatly is growing quickly. Revenue more than doubled last year. However, Oatly had to pay up for that growth. Gross margin contracted last year, and its net loss nearly doubled. Plant-based milk alternatives include soy, almond, and now oat, but it currently accounts for less 10% of the global milk market. There's market share for the taking, but ultimately this is just a commodity.Oalty may be spending a lot of money on savvy marketing and scoring distribution deals, but is there really a difference between Oatly's product and the competition? No one holds a patent to plant-based milk products. It's just a matter of time before the market either demands profits -- and growth will slow dramatically -- or realizes that you don't pay 30 times deficit-saddled revenue for a commodity distributor.If you're looking for safe stocks, you aren't likely to find them in AMC Entertainment, Riot Blockchain, and Oatly this week.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":653,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":113922002,"gmtCreate":1622591646306,"gmtModify":1704186797395,"author":{"id":"3579903850271065","authorId":"3579903850271065","name":"nicoco","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579903850271065","authorIdStr":"3579903850271065"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"well done","listText":"well done","text":"well done","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/113922002","repostId":"1184181912","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1184181912","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1622589761,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1184181912?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-02 07:22","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Zoom reports blowout earnings but warns of a coming slowdown","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1184181912","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Zoomreported better-than-expected first-quarter results Tuesday, with sales growth of 191%.

In this case, Memorial Day falls on the last day of the month.\nU.S. equities had a mostly dull week, with the S&P 500 index rising 1.2% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising 0.9%. The S&P 500 and Dow ended the month 2% and 0.6% higher, respectively.\nThe majority of the action this week was in more speculative areas of the market: Cryptocurrencies were on a roller-coaster ride and shares of Reddit favorites AMC Entertainment (ticker: AMC) and GameStop (GME) surged. Shares of AMC closed out the week 116% higher.\nIs the Stock Market Open on Memorial Day 2021?\nInvestors must wait until Tuesday to see if those trends continue. The New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq are both closed on Monday, May 31. The same is true for U.S. over-the-counter markets. They’ll be back open on Tuesday at 9:30 a.m. EDT. U.S. bond markets will also be closed.\nWhat About International Markets?\nSince Memorial Day is an American holiday, international markets are mostly open. An exception is the London Stock Exchange, which will be closed for a bank holiday. The Toronto Stock Exchange, Shanghai Stock Exchange, Hong Kong stock exchange, and Tokyo Stock Exchange will be open.\nHow Will Covid-19 Impact the Holiday?\nMemorial Day events were largely restricted or canceled last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has said vaccinated Americans can travel and enjoy the holiday with other vaccinated friends.\n“If you are vaccinated, you are protected, and you can enjoy your Memorial Day,” said CDC Director Dr. Rochelle P. Walensky,according to the New York Times. “If you are not vaccinated, our guidance has not changed for you, you remain at risk of infection. You still need to mask and take other precautions.”\nWhile the U.S. is reopening, some things will be closed on Memorial Day because it’s a federal holiday. Mail, for example, will not be delivered.\nMemorial Day is a popular weekend for sales at home-improvement retailers such as Lowe’s (LOW) and Home Depo t(HD), which both benefited during the pandemic from consumers spending more on their homes.\nHow Have Stocks Performed Historically During the Week After Memorial Day?\nThe S&P 500 has posted gains 31 out of 50 times in the four-day weeks following Memorial Days since 1971. Its average percentage change is 0.5%. The Dow has gained 27 out of 50 times over the same period.

The combination of technological innovation, competitive advantages, acquisitions, and other tangible and intangible factors has a tendency to shake-up the world's largest companies on a regular basis.</p><p>For example, in 2004, <b>General Electric</b>, <b>ExxonMobil</b>, <b>Pfizer</b>, <b>Citigroup</b>, <b>Walmart</b>, <b>BP</b>, <b>AIG</b>, <b>Intel</b>, and <b>Bank of America</b> were nine of the 10 largest publicly traded companies by market cap. None are still in the top 10 just 17 years later. In fact, AIG isn't even in the top 250 anymore.</p><p>What might the top 10 look like in 2035? Frankly, we don't know. But given a number of proliferating high-growth trends, it won't stop me from making a prediction.

Amazon currently controls more than 40% of all online sales in the U.S., and it's signed up 200 million people to Prime worldwide. The fees it collects from Prime memberships help to ensure it can undercut brick-and-mortar retailers on price.</p><p>As for AWS, it grew sales by 30% in 2020 (i.e., during the worst economic downturn in decades). AWS has a current run-rate of $54 billion in annual sales, meaning it alone could fetch a valuation north of $600 billion and still be valued cheaply within the cloud space. Because AWS generates considerably higher margins than retail, it's Amazon's key to a cash flow explosion in the years to come.<img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F628448%2Fcloud-computing-data-server-storage-email-blockchain-saas-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"393\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><h2>Microsoft</h2><p>Despite a myriad of change since 1999, tech stock <b>Microsoft</b> (NASDAQ:MSFT) is the only company to remain in the top 10 by market cap in 1999, 2004, 2009, 2014, 2019, and currently. Thus, it's a safe bet to suggest it'll hang onto a top-10 spot over the coming 14 years.</p><p>Although Microsoft is still generating plenty of cash flow from its legacy software and Windows operating system, the cloud is its future. Cloud infrastructure service Azure, along with enterprise and consumer cloud products across all of its core brands (Office, Dynamics, and Windows), can fuel sustainable double-digit or high single-digit growth for a long time to come.</p><p>Plus, Microsoft is loaded with cash, meaning it can use acquisitions as a means to boost its growth prospects and remain competitive.</p><p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F628448%2Faapl-iphone-xr.PNG&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"463\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Image source: Apple.</p><h2>Apple</h2><p>Speaking of cash cows, I believe <b>Apple</b> (NASDAQ:AAPL) remains safely in the top 10, even if its growth rate were to taper a bit. Keep in mind that Apple generated nearly $100 billion in operating cash flow over the trailing 12 months, which means the company has an abundant cash pile to buy back its stock, pay dividends, reinvest in innovation, and make the occasional acquisition to bolster its product portfolio.</p><p>In the years to come, Tim Cook will continue to oversee Apple's transition to a services company.

The combination of technological innovation, competitive advantages, acquisitions, and other tangible and intangible factors has a tendency to shake-up the world's largest companies on a regular basis.For example, in 2004, General Electric, ExxonMobil, Pfizer, Citigroup, Walmart, BP, AIG, Intel, and Bank of America were nine of the 10 largest publicly traded companies by market cap. None are still in the top 10 just 17 years later. In fact, AIG isn't even in the top 250 anymore.What might the top 10 look like in 2035? Frankly, we don't know. But given a number of proliferating high-growth trends, it won't stop me from making a prediction. In 14 years, these are likely to be the world's 10 largest publicly traded companies, presented in no particular order.Image source: Getty Images.AmazonUnless e-commerce giant Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN) decides to spin off its leading cloud infrastructure segment, Amazon Web Services (AWS), I consider it to have the best chance of being the largest company by market cap in 2035. Amazon currently controls more than 40% of all online sales in the U.S., and it's signed up 200 million people to Prime worldwide. The fees it collects from Prime memberships help to ensure it can undercut brick-and-mortar retailers on price.As for AWS, it grew sales by 30% in 2020 (i.e., during the worst economic downturn in decades). AWS has a current run-rate of $54 billion in annual sales, meaning it alone could fetch a valuation north of $600 billion and still be valued cheaply within the cloud space. Because AWS generates considerably higher margins than retail, it's Amazon's key to a cash flow explosion in the years to come.Image source: Getty Images.MicrosoftDespite a myriad of change since 1999, tech stock Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is the only company to remain in the top 10 by market cap in 1999, 2004, 2009, 2014, 2019, and currently. Thus, it's a safe bet to suggest it'll hang onto a top-10 spot over the coming 14 years.Although Microsoft is still generating plenty of cash flow from its legacy software and Windows operating system, the cloud is its future. Cloud infrastructure service Azure, along with enterprise and consumer cloud products across all of its core brands (Office, Dynamics, and Windows), can fuel sustainable double-digit or high single-digit growth for a long time to come.Plus, Microsoft is loaded with cash, meaning it can use acquisitions as a means to boost its growth prospects and remain competitive.Image source: Apple.AppleSpeaking of cash cows, I believe Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) remains safely in the top 10, even if its growth rate were to taper a bit. Keep in mind that Apple generated nearly $100 billion in operating cash flow over the trailing 12 months, which means the company has an abundant cash pile to buy back its stock, pay dividends, reinvest in innovation, and make the occasional acquisition to bolster its product portfolio.In the years to come, Tim Cook will continue to oversee Apple's transition to a services company. Subscription services boast higher margins than most products Apple sells, and will help reduce the revenue lumpiness associated with tech replacement cycles.Image source: Getty Images.FacebookThe social media space has proved especially fickle over the past 15 years, so there's certainly the risk Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) won't be one of the 10 largest companies by 2035. It could also be broken up by regulators, which would potentially remove it from consideration.However, I chose to keep Facebook in the top 10 for two simple reasons.

When it decides to meaningfully monetize WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger, it'll enjoy a massive multiyear growth spurt.Image source: Getty Images.AlphabetAs with Facebook, ad-driven operating models come with risks. Thankfully, Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL)(NASDAQ:GOOG) has ancillary operations and history on its side.In terms of ancillary businesses, streaming content provider YouTube has grown into a top-three social media destination, and cloud infrastructure service Google Cloud now has an annual run-rate of more than $16 billion.

That's because Airbnb is disrupting both the hotel stay side of the industry as well as the travel side of the equation.At the moment, Airbnb has 4 million hosts worldwide.

After all, the tech industry as a whole appears to be on the recovery in thestock market today. If anything, the growth story in tech remains the same. This is because tech companies will likely continue to innovate and compete, such is the nature of tech today. Not only would this benefit organizations and investors alike, but it would also accelerate the adoption of new technologies globally. Could this be enough to warrant investors taking advantage of the current weakness in the sector?</p><p>Well, like it or not, the world today is heavily reliant on tech. For example, we could look at the personal computer company <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DVMT\">Dell</a> (NYSE: DELL). <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JE\">Just</a> this week, Dell saw earnings of $2.13 a share, well above consensus projections of $1.61. The company cites strong demand for its desktops and laptops throughout the quarter for this performance. Indeed, the consumer tech industry continues to power on regardless of the state of the world.</p><p>Meanwhile, the booming cybersecurity industry is also making headlines today. This is because of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a>’s (NASDAQ: MSFT) latest blog post regarding the infamous SolarWinds (NYSE: SWI) hack. Essentially, Microsoft believes that the Russian hackers responsible have just launched another major cyberattack on over 150 organizations worldwide. As such, the need for tech as a means of defense in this modern age is greater than ever.

After all, the tech industry as a whole appears to be on the recovery in thestock market today. If anything, the growth story in tech remains the same. This is because tech companies will likely continue to innovate and compete, such is the nature of tech today. Not only would this benefit organizations and investors alike, but it would also accelerate the adoption of new technologies globally. Could this be enough to warrant investors taking advantage of the current weakness in the sector?Well, like it or not, the world today is heavily reliant on tech. For example, we could look at the personal computer company Dell (NYSE: DELL). Just this week, Dell saw earnings of $2.13 a share, well above consensus projections of $1.61. The company cites strong demand for its desktops and laptops throughout the quarter for this performance. Indeed, the consumer tech industry continues to power on regardless of the state of the world.Meanwhile, the booming cybersecurity industry is also making headlines today. This is because of Microsoft’s (NASDAQ: MSFT) latest blog post regarding the infamous SolarWinds (NYSE: SWI) hack. Essentially, Microsoft believes that the Russian hackers responsible have just launched another major cyberattack on over 150 organizations worldwide. As such, the need for tech as a means of defense in this modern age is greater than ever. No doubt, as the importance of tech continues to expand, tech stocks could become a more viable bet for investors.

But analys","content":"<p>Square has been a better long-term stock-market performer and it is growing more quickly. But analysts, on the whole, prefer PayPal.</p><p>PayPal and Square are well-known to investors as rapidly growing players in the payment-processing space. They don't compete directly in all areas, but there are enough similarities to make a meaningful pairing.</p><p>Where PayPal and Square fit in</p><p>PayPal Holdings Inc. (PYPL) was spun off from eBay Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EBAY\">$(EBAY)$</a> in July 2015. Square was founded in 2009 by CEO Jack Dorsey and James McKelvey Jr. (a current board member), and went public in November 2015. Dorsey also serves as CEO of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a> Inc. (TWTR), which he co-founded in 2006.</p><p>PayPal said in its 2020 10-K filing  with the Securities and Exchange Commission that 13% of its revenue for the year came from customers on eBay's Marketplace platform. It also said that no other revenue source represented more than 10% of the whole.</p><p>PayPal makes it easy to do payments online through its secure digital wallet -- a user simply signs into their PayPal account to make a payment to the merchant from a bank account or credit card. The purchaser doesn't need to provide any financial information to the merchant.</p><p>During 2020, 93% of PayPal's revenue came from transactions, with the rest from \"other value-added services,\" a category that  has declined over the past two full years.</p><p>Square offers what it calls a \"cohesive commerce ecosystem,\" which includes hardware and software, to help merchants process point-of-sale transactions and online transactions. Square also has Cash App, which helps individual users, businesses and organizations transfer money or bitcoin  through the app or by email.</p><p>\"Customers can also use their stored funds to buy and sell bitcoin and equity investments within Cash App,\" according to Square's first-quarter 10-Q report .</p><p>Here's a comparison of quarterly and annual transaction volume for the two companies, with figures in millions:</p><p>PayPal has a much larger payment-processing business  than Square, and recently, its quarterly and annual transaction volumes have grown more rapidly.</p><p>Key metrics</p><p>Size, revenue and profit</p><p>Here is a comparison of the companies' market capitalizations and GAAP net revenue figures for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020:</p><p>GAAP stands for Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, under which Square's revenue from its bitcoin holdings has caused the company's total revenue to balloon. Here's Square's more detailed revenue breakdown:</p><p>This illustrates why an investor considering an individual stock has to take a closer look to form their own opinion.</p><p>Here's what Square had to say about its revenue reporting in its first-quarter shareholder letter :</p><p>We deduct bitcoin revenue because our role is to facilitate customers' access to bitcoin. When customers buy bitcoin through Cash App, we only apply a small margin to the market cost of bitcoin, which tends to be volatile and outside our control. Therefore, we believe bitcoin gross profit better reflects the economic benefits as well as our performance from these transactions.</p><p>More from Square's shareholder letter:</p><p>While bitcoin revenue was $3.51 billion in the first quarter of 2021, up approximately 11x year over year, bitcoin gross profit was only $75 million, or approximately 2% of bitcoin revenue.</p><p>So Square's adjusted net revenue for the first quarter was $1.55 billion, increasing 44% from the year-earlier quarter.</p><p>Read:A bitcoin battle of the billionaires ensues as Jack Dorsey faces off with Musk on 'green' merits of world's No. 1 crypto</p><p>Excitement for bitcoin caused the spike in revenue for Square, as its Cash App users participated in the eightfold increase in the cryptocurrency's price in dollars over the 12 months through March 31.</p><p>Here's a comparison of gross profits (earnings before operating expenses) and operating profits (earnings before interest and taxes)  for PayPal and Square for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020:</p><p>PayPal has the larger payment-processing business, by far, while Square is growing its profits more quickly. Despite Square's point that it derives a relatively small portion of its profits from bitcoin revenue, the massive amount of revenue from bitcoin transactions, including customers' trades through Cash App, show the potential of this type of customer activity.</p><p>Returns on common equity and invested capital</p><p>These returns can give some insight into how well a management team deploys capital:</p><p>Return on invested capital is earnings divided by combined debt and equity. It is a measure of capital allocation efficiency and can be useful when comparing companies that are similar. In this case, none of these numbers are bad -- both companies are still growing their businesses in a dynamic environment.</p><p>Earnings estimates to 2025</p><p>Here are the actual earnings-per-share results for 2020 with consensus estimates among analysts polled by FactSet going out to 2025:</p><p>Here are estimated annual percentage  increases in EPS based on the above, plus an estimated five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR):</p><p>That five-year CAGR for Square is bumped up by the expected EPS breakout in 2021. But if we run a four-year EPS CAGR from 2021 through 2025, the results are 21% for PayPal and 46% for Square. Both are impressive, but Square comes out on top if analysts' estimates are close to accurate. This helps explain the much higher forward price-to-earnings ratio for Square that you can see further down.</p><p>Cash flow</p><p>In the modern economy, many investors believe free cash flow -- remaining cash flow after planned capital expenditures -- is a critically important measure. One reason for this is that so many <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-time non-cash items can affect EPS. Another is that free cash flow can be deployed through business expansion, acquisitions, share buybacks dividends or other actions that will presumably be good for shareholders.</p><p>Square has had negative free cash flow <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FCF\">$(FCF)$</a> for two of the past four quarters, which isn't surprising, as the company emphasizes growing its business. So it may be most useful to look ahead. FactSet has consensus estimates for FCF per share going out to 2023:</p><p>Again, the analysts expect great things from both companies, especially Square.</p><p>Stock valuation and performance</p><p>Here are forward price-to-earnings and price-to-sales ratios based on consensus estimates for the next 12 months, along with total return figures:</p><p>Those are high valuations to expected earnings and sales.

But it was still down sharply from a 13-month high of 88.3 in April.All three major surveys of consumer confidence fell in May  owing to worries about higher prices.Big picture: For the first time in arguably decades inflation is on the minds of everyone from Main Street to Wall Street to Washington.  Prices are soaring after years of hardly any inflation.The Federal Reserve, the nation's inflation watchdog, insists prices will come back down once the economy has mostly recovered from the coronavirus pandemic and  pentup demand is satisfied.The process could take a year or more to play out, though, and keep the debate over inflation raging.Key details: The surprise decline in consumer sentiment in May was triggered by sudden worries about inflation. Consumer prices have surged this year  and jumped more than 4% in the past 12 months -- a 13-year high.Americans are paying more for virtually everything: groceries, gas, appliances, sporting goods, used vehicles, auto insurance, vacation rentals and so on. That's eating away at their paychecks and some of their hefty savings.The result: The attitude of Americans right now about their personal finances and broader economy is somewhat subdued despite a huge decline in coronavirus cases. The so-called index of current conditions declined to 89.4 in May from 97.2 in April.Consumers were also uncertain about what the next six months would bring. The expectation index slipped to 78.8 this month from 82.7 in April.What they are saying? \"Record proportions of consumers reported higher prices across a wide range of discretionary purchases, including homes, vehicles, and household durables,' said Richard Curtin, chief economist of the survey.Market reaction: The Dow Jones Industrial Average  and S&P  rose in Friday trades. Stocks held onto gains after the sentiment results.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":296,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":137624960,"gmtCreate":1622344686650,"gmtModify":1704183257793,"author":{"id":"3579903850271065","authorId":"3579903850271065","name":"nicoco","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579903850271065","authorIdStr":"3579903850271065"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like","listText":"like","text":"like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/137624960","repostId":"2138029491","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2138029491","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1622212520,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2138029491?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-28 22:35","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Nissan to set up EV battery plants in Japan, Britain - Nikkei","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2138029491","media":"CNA","summary":"Nissan Motor Co will partner with China-based battery maker Envision AESC group to build new battery plants for electric vehicles in Japan and United Kingdom and will invest over 200 billion yen (US$1.82 billion), Nikkei reported https://s.nikkei.com/34qpSwG on Friday.","content":"<p>REUTERS -Nissan Motor Co will partner with China-based battery maker Envision AESC group to build new battery plants for electric vehicles in Japan and United Kingdom and will invest over 200 billion yen (US$1.82 billion), Nikkei reported https://s.nikkei.com/34qpSwG on Friday.</p><p>The Japanese automaker will start turning out batteries in two new plants as early as 2024, aiming for total capacity sufficient to power 700,000 EVs per year, the report said.</p><p>\"Nissan will continue to accelerate electrification toward carbon neutrality, however we have no further plans to announce at this time,\" Nissan spokeswoman said.</p><p>Batteries are <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the costliest components of EVs as raw materials account for the largest part of the cost.</p><p>To save costs, the Japanese automaker's alliance partner Renault Chief Executive Luca de Meo said this month the two companies are in talks to collaborate more by using the same battery technology, and Gupta said they have agreed on the common specifications of batteries.</p>","source":"can_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

We began several weeks ago adding back tables and seating and — at a handful of outdoor food courts in a few states,\" Costco CFO Richard Galanti told analysts on an earnings call Thursday evening.Galanti explained Costco is bringing back popular menu items while also reconfiguring seating arrangements for diners.\"Over the past few months, we've also added back a few more food items, including bringing back a new and improved churros, which will be at all U.S. locations by the 4th of July, and adding a high-end soft ice cream to replace our frozen yogurt. And by June 7, we plan to have tables in seating back at most locations, but with more physical separation, tables of 4 instead of 6 and 8 and about half the seating capacity as we had before. Again, these are still subject to doing this in waves and see how it goes and subject to any additional state rules or restrictions in a few cases,\" Galanti said.Free food samples — another long-time favorite of Costco shoppers — will also be returning soon at 170 stores, Galanti confirmed.Even without its beloved food courts back to full operation, Costco crushed analyst estimates for the most recent quarter as shoppers continued stock up for work-for-home life amidst the pandemic.

For leisure and travel stocks like <b>Airbnb</b> that got slammed by pandemic shutdowns, the lifting of Covid curbs means adjusting to a whole new world.</p><p>Some tastes people acquired last year as they looked for escapes from lockdown are proving durable, like traveling to national parks by RV. Others, such as boating, grew out of surges in wealth that the stock market rally provided. As the summer travel season heats up, Americans are making new choices in where they go, when they go, how they get there and who joins them.</p><p>\"The world is never going back to the way it was,\" said Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky on an earnings call in May. \"And that means that travel is never going back to the way it was either.\"</p><p>One major trend is travelers have become more flexible about when and where they go, especially as remote work allows people to blur when they are on and off the clock. Airbnb stock rose May 24, when the company updated booking features, including an option to search for listings without fixed dates or locations.</p><p>And consumers aren't the only ones changing their habits. While tourism-dependent destinations suffered last year, the less-packed streets also showed locals the benefits of quieter communities.</p><p>Residents and local officials in normally packed hot spots like Italy and Hawaii are considering limiting the number of tourists. Such a seismic change could make visiting these places prohibitively expensive for many people. If the mix of travelers tilts more heavily toward the wealthy, travel stocks will nudge further toward luxury.</p><h2>Leisure, Travel Industry Stocks</h2><p>Shares across the sector have rebounded from last year's pandemic lows. The stocks' recent chart action is mixed. But many travel stocks have outperformed the market the past week and could present buying opportunities for investors.</p><p>Airline stocks&nbsp;like <b>American Airlines</b>, <b>United Airlines</b> and <b>Delta Air Lines</b> surged earlier this year on the Reddit stock short squeeze. Then they sold off because business and overseas travel remained weak. Since then, they've consolidated and are approaching buy points.</p><p>Cruise stocks like <b>Carnival</b>, <b>Royal Caribbean</b> and <b>Norwegian Cruise Line</b> are showing similar patterns.</p><p>Meanwhile, shares of boat makers <b>MarineMax</b> and <b>Brunswick</b> as well as RV makers <b>Winnebago</b> and <b>Thor Industries</b> need to regroup after some failed breakouts. They are no longer in buy zones but could form new bases if earnings and sales growth remain strong.</p><p>Hotel leader <b>Marriott</b> has been less volatile and is forming a base, though earnings and sales have yet to fully recover.</p><p>Airbnb stock has had a more difficult year. It surged after going public in December but began to slump in March as competition from <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EXPE\">Expedia</a></b> rival Vrbo rental service reduced the availability of hosts. A mixed Q1 earnings report and the end of a post-IPO lockup period also weighed on Airbnb stock, which popped up 6% Thursday on higher volume but remained 35% off its 2021 high.</p><h2><b>When Luxury Means More Privacy</b></h2><p>Luxury travel, once the purview of only the ultrarich, may have won over those who might have had the means but not the need to travel lavishly. As travelers sought to avoid crowds during the pandemic, those with the means turned to options like private jets.</p><p>Arnie Weissman, editor-in-chief of Travel Weekly, says the pandemic opened luxury travel to a wider customer base. \"Some people developed a taste for it, and it's likely to continue.\"</p><p>Kim-Marie Evans, who writes the blog \"Luxury Travel Moms\" and plans travel for high-net-worth clients, told IBD she booked a trip for a family to Anguilla.</p><p>They stayed in a four-bedroom villa at the Four Seasons. And rather than flying commercially, they used a private jet service.</p><p>Private jet bookings are at or near their pre-pandemic highs, according to Elite Traveler, citing industry tracker FlightAware's data.</p><p>In May, private jet company Wheels Up said membership jumped 58% in Q1 to nearly 10,000. And VistaJet, another leading private jet company, said membership climbed 29% from a year ago.</p><p>Private jet leasing company NetJets, which is owned by <b>Berkshire Hathaway</b>, says its flight volume dropped to as low as 10% of 2019 numbers at the start of the pandemic.</p><p>Now the company, which also offers fractional ownership of its jets, says it's operating at 85% of its 2019 volume. NetJets said in a statement that commercial airlines have reduced their schedules. Consumers also are prioritizing their health and safety, choosing the seclusion of a private jet over a packed jetliner.</p><h2><b>Vacation Shift Favors These Travel Stocks</b></h2><p>Hotel chains implemented stringent Covid-19 protocols to convince visitors their properties were clean and safe. Still, many travelers opted to rent private homes through Airbnb, where they could avoid mingling with strangers in hotel lobbies, Weismann says.</p><p>Travel trends favor Airbnb stock long term, though it currently is slumping. On May 27, analysts at RBC Capital Markets rated shares at outperform, citing secular tailwinds that have yet to be fully appreciated by the market such as its dominant customer engagement.</p><p>The pandemic also shed light on the market potential of travel stocks like Marriott, which operates home-rental service Homes &amp; Villas by Marriott International, catering to ultra premium short- and long-term stays, CFRA Research analyst Tuna Amobi says.</p><p>The Homes &amp; Villas platform, which offers professionally managed private homes, had around 2,000 units at launch less than two years ago. Today, it lists nearly 25,000 properties.</p><p>\"They're where we don't have hotels, and many of them are in more remote locations, which really was quite attractive during Covid,\" said Marriott International President Stephanie Linnartz in a recent call with investors.</p><p>Airbnb also finds that customers are visiting smaller cities, towns and rural communities — not the same 20-30 cities that were most popular pre-pandemic. People are traveling outside the peak seasons and staying longer.</p><p>\"There is a mass shift from mass travel to meaningful travel,\" CEO Chesky said.</p><h2><b>Seaworthy Travel Stocks </b></h2><p>Luxury cruising should also come back with a bang. Nearly every cruise line's around-the-world luxury voyage is fully booked two years in advance.</p><p>One cruise line, Silversea, said its 139-day around-the-world cruise sold out in a single day. The Monaco-based cruise line is owned by Royal Caribbean. The cruise costs between $74,000 and $278,000 per guest, based on double occupancy. That compares with typical fares that start at $15,000-$20,000.</p><p>But others heading out to sea want to avoid crowded ships, which have seen outbreaks of coronavirus and other infections. The National Marine Manufacturers Association says new powerboat sales surged 34% in February compared to the same time period last year.</p><p>\"Inventory levels of new boats are the leanest they've ever been, and boats are being sold as soon as they hit the marketplace as manufacturers work to fulfill the backlog of orders,\" said Vicky Yu, senior director of business intelligence for NMMA. \"While new boat sales slowed in early 2021 following record sales last year, we are still seeing elevated levels as more Americans seek out boating as a way to spend quality time with loved ones.\"</p><p>The trend has pushed up leisure and travel stocks like boat retailers MarineMax and Brunswick&nbsp;as well as sport boat maker <b>Malibu Boats</b>.</p><p>\"It's really turning out to be a great alternative for people to stay close to home and with their family and friends and enjoy the boating lifestyle,\" MarineMax CFO Michael McLamb said in a conference call after reporting earnings April 22.</p><h2><b>Travel Stocks For Being Alone Together</b></h2><p>The desire to spend more time with friends and family is also spurring RV sales. They exploded in popularity during the pandemic, and sales data this year show demand remains high.</p><p>\"The rediscovery of America will continue this summer,\" Weissman said.</p><p>The pandemic accelerated long-term trends favoring the outdoors, Winnebago CEO Michael Happe said in a March earnings call. That includes power sports, boating and RVs.</p><p>Consumer priorities have changed, he added, toward a desire to invest in experiences vs. possessions.</p><p>\"We also believe the time (spent) recently with family and friends has reinforced that they'd like to do more of that in the future,\" Happe said. \"And families and individuals will be reevaluating how they spend their leisure time going forward.\"</p><p>Airbnb pointed to another sign of this trend among leisure and travel stocks. Instead of booking studio apartments in cities, more customers are booking entire homes with more bedrooms. As a result, the number of guests per reservation has increased.</p><h2><b>Work-Life Rebalance</b></h2><p>As people pay closer attention to their well-being post-Covid, another trend to watch is high-end wellness tourism with a focus on fitness, rejuvenation and health, Weissman says.

Still, many travelers opted to rent private homes through Airbnb, where they could avoid mingling with strangers in hotel lobbies, Weismann says.</p><p>Travel trends favor Airbnb stock long term, though it currently is slumping. On May 27, analysts at RBC Capital Markets rated shares at outperform, citing secular tailwinds that have yet to be fully appreciated by the market such as its dominant customer engagement.</p><p>The pandemic also shed light on the market potential of travel stocks like Marriott, which operates home-rental service Homes &amp; Villas by Marriott International, catering to ultra premium short- and long-term stays, CFRA Research analyst Tuna Amobi says.</p><p>The Homes &amp; Villas platform, which offers professionally managed private homes, had around 2,000 units at launch less than two years ago.

Nearly every cruise line's around-the-world luxury voyage is fully booked two years in advance.</p><p>One cruise line, Silversea, said its 139-day around-the-world cruise sold out in a single day. The Monaco-based cruise line is owned by Royal Caribbean. The cruise costs between $74,000 and $278,000 per guest, based on double occupancy.

$30 billion as the app-software company set terms for its initial public offering in its bid to catch a sizable piece of a $200 billion mobile app market.</p>\n<p>On last&nbsp;Wednesday, AppLovin&nbsp;named a price range for its shares of&nbsp;$75 to $85 apiece, a price that could value the company at more than $30 billion. The company plans to sell at least 25 million shares and have about 360 million shares outstanding, which would trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker “APP.”</p>\n<p>The Palo Alto, Calif., company, which will be a decade old in July, makes marketing, monetization and analytics software that helps app developers grow their businesses. It also owns a portfolio of more than 200 free-to-play mobile games with in-app purchases. The expected valuation of AppLovin dwarfs that of a recent comparable IPO, Unity Software Inc.,which was valued at&nbsp;nearly $14 billion&nbsp;at the time of its IPO in September.</p>\n<p>In its Securities and Exchange Commission filing, AppLovin said it sees a total market opportunity of about $189 billion, with $101 billion of that in in-app advertising revenue and about $88 billion in worldwide direct-game spending, citing IDC 2020 figures. AppLovin expects that market opportunity to grow to $283 billion by 2024.</p>\n<p>Here are five things to know about AppLovin.</p>\n<p><b>The cost of business more than doubled, and Apple and Google are a reason</b></p>\n<p>AppLovin said it took in $1.45 billion in revenue in 2020, resulting in a loss of $125.9 million, versus 2019 revenue of $994.1 million and net income of $119 million. In 2018, the company booked revenue of $483.4 million for a loss of $260 million.</p>\n<p>The big cost hike in 2020 versus 2019 was a 130% jump in cost-of-business expenses to $555.6 million, with $112 million of it due to payment-processing fees. Those payment-processing fees are the same kind that&nbsp;Epic Games balked about&nbsp;paying to Apple Inc.’s&nbsp;App Store and Alphabet Inc.’s&nbsp;Google Play store, that ran as high as 30% of purchases.</p>\n<p>“The mobile-app ecosystem depends in part on a relatively small number of third-party distribution platforms, such as the Apple App Store, the Google Play store, and Facebook, some of which are direct competitors,” AppLovin said in its S-1. “We derive significant revenue from the distribution of our apps through these third-party platforms and almost all of our [in-app purchases] are made through the payment processing systems of these third-party platforms.”</p>\n<p><b>Nearly a quarter of proceeds will go to pay down debt</b></p>\n<p>AppLovin estimates it stands to bring in net proceeds of about $1.74 billion if it prices at the mid-point of its range.</p>\n<p>Of that, the company said it plans to use about $400 million to pay off debt under its revolving credit facility. Currently, AppLovin lists $1.6 billion in debt.</p>\n<p>“Additionally, we expect to use a portion of the net proceeds to enter into strategic acquisitions and partnerships,” AppLovin said. “However, other than our pending acquisition of Adjust, we do not have definitive agreements or commitments for any material acquisitions or partnerships at this time.”</p>\n<p><b>Acquisitions are part of its growth strategy</b></p>\n<p>Most recently, AppLovin announced plans to acquire Germany-based mobile-app measurement and marketing company Adjust. While AppLovin did not disclose terms of the deal, Crunchbase estimated the price at $1 billion.</p>\n<p>The company did state in its S-1 that it has “invested over $1&nbsp;billion across 15 strategic acquisitions and partnerships” since the beginning of 2018.</p>\n<p>AppLovin acquired mobile-game developer Machine Zone Inc. last May for an undisclosed amount, although Crunchbase estimated the deal at $500 million.</p>\n<p>That follows acquisitions of software development kit-management platform&nbsp;SafeDK in 2019, in-app header bidding company Max Inc. in 2018, and Germany-based mobile-ad network&nbsp;Moqoqo in 2014.</p>\n<p>“We will continue to explore and evaluate additional acquisitions, some of which may be the same size or even larger in scale and investment than the Machine Zone acquisition and our pending acquisition of Adjust,” the company said.</p>\n<p><b>KKR has the lion’s share of voting control</b></p>\n<p>The company plans to offer Class A shares in the IPO, which carry one vote, while early investors’ Class B shares will carry 20 votes. AppLovin has raised $1.4 billion in funding from investors, according to Crunchbase.</p>\n<p>Holding the reins will be KKR Denali Holdings, which will hold 72.4% of Class B shares after the offering, for 67.4% of the voting power. Other Class B shareholders include Applovin Chief Executive and co-founder Adam Foroughi, who will own 19.4% of the Class B shares with 18.1% voting rights, and Chief Financial Officer Herald Chen, with 3.2% of the Class B shares and 3% of voting rights.</p>\n<p>The company will also establish a nonvoting class of shares, though those shares do not yet exist.</p>\n<p><b>Attempt to sell to Chinese firm failed, and KKR stepped in</b></p>\n<p>If it wasn’t for U.S. concerns about investments in strategic assets from China, KKR may have never got involved and AppLovin would not have gone public.</p>\n<p>In September 2016, AppLovin agreed to be acquired outright by Chinese private-equity firm Orient Hontai Capital for&nbsp;$1.4 billion. A little over a year later, that deal was scrapped — reportedly after the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States pushed back on the deal over customer data concerns — and&nbsp;AppLovin agreed to take an $841 million debt investment&nbsp;from Orient Hontai. Prior to that deal, Orient Hontai had invested $140 million in the company; currently, Orient Hontai owns 26.2 million Class A shares.</p>\n<p>In July 2018, KKR &amp; Co. invested $400 million for a minority stake in AppLovin of roughly 110 million shares. At the suggested IPO price, that $400 million investment would be worth more than $8 billion.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>AppLovin IPO: 5 things to know about the software company seeking a $30 billion valuation</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\">\nAppLovin IPO: 5 things to know about the software company seeking a $30 billion valuation\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-04-12 11:01 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/applovin-ipo-5-things-to-know-about-the-software-company-seeking-a-30-billion-valuation-11617836424><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Software company that helps videogame and other developers monetize and manage their apps also owns its own portfolio of mobile games\n\nAppLovin Inc. is shooting for a valuation of more than $30 ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/applovin-ipo-5-things-to-know-about-the-software-company-seeking-a-30-billion-valuation-11617836424\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"APP":"AppLovin Corporation"},"source_url":"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/applovin-ipo-5-things-to-know-about-the-software-company-seeking-a-30-billion-valuation-11617836424","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1176099988","content_text":"Software company that helps videogame and other developers monetize and manage their apps also owns its own portfolio of mobile games\n\nAppLovin Inc. is shooting for a valuation of more than $30 billion as the app-software company set terms for its initial public offering in its bid to catch a sizable piece of a $200 billion mobile app market.\nOn last Wednesday, AppLovin named a price range for its shares of $75 to $85 apiece, a price that could value the company at more than $30 billion.

Other Class B shareholders include Applovin Chief Executive and co-founder Adam Foroughi, who will own 19.4% of the Class B shares with 18.1% voting rights, and Chief Financial Officer Herald Chen, with 3.2% of the Class B shares and 3% of voting rights.\nThe company will also establish a nonvoting class of shares, though those shares do not yet exist.\nAttempt to sell to Chinese firm failed, and KKR stepped in\nIf it wasn’t for U.S. concerns about investments in strategic assets from China, KKR may have never got involved and AppLovin would not have gone public.\nIn September 2016, AppLovin agreed to be acquired outright by Chinese private-equity firm Orient Hontai Capital for $1.4 billion. A little over a year later, that deal was scrapped — reportedly after the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States pushed back on the deal over customer data concerns — and AppLovin agreed to take an $841 million debt investment from Orient Hontai. Prior to that deal, Orient Hontai had invested $140 million in the company; currently, Orient Hontai owns 26.2 million Class A shares.\nIn July 2018, KKR & Co. invested $400 million for a minority stake in AppLovin of roughly 110 million shares. At the suggested IPO price, that $400 million investment would be worth more than $8 billion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":137,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":373740116,"gmtCreate":1618886522935,"gmtModify":1704716368910,"author":{"id":"3579903850271065","authorId":"3579903850271065","name":"nicoco","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579903850271065","authorIdStr":"3579903850271065"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"oh","listText":"oh","text":"oh","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/373740116","repostId":"1146957181","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":216,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":347015852,"gmtCreate":1618449195576,"gmtModify":1704710971048,"author":{"id":"3579903850271065","authorId":"3579903850271065","name":"nicoco","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579903850271065","authorIdStr":"3579903850271065"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"nice","listText":"nice","text":"nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/347015852","repostId":"1109744430","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":131,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":164702807,"gmtCreate":1624235357409,"gmtModify":1703831032806,"author":{"id":"3579903850271065","authorId":"3579903850271065","name":"nicoco","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579903850271065","authorIdStr":"3579903850271065"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like","listText":"like","text":"like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/164702807","repostId":"2145470425","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":421,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":110612930,"gmtCreate":1622448724320,"gmtModify":1704184569832,"author":{"id":"3579903850271065","authorId":"3579903850271065","name":"nicoco","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579903850271065","authorIdStr":"3579903850271065"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like","listText":"like","text":"like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/110612930","repostId":"1164081350","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":675,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":346884430,"gmtCreate":1618021340520,"gmtModify":1704706052138,"author":{"id":"3579903850271065","authorId":"3579903850271065","name":"nicoco","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579903850271065","authorIdStr":"3579903850271065"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like","listText":"like","text":"like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/346884430","repostId":"1121480052","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1121480052","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1617979030,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1121480052?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-09

that the U.S. housing market could be about to enter a multi-year growth period.","content":"<p>With the U.S seemingly shrugging off the \"anything but housing\" mindset that inevitably kicked in after the great financial crisis over a decade ago and housing starts now back in growth mode, it's time to look at some companies that can benefit from a housing boom. I think plumbing and architectural products company <b>Masco</b> (NYSE:MAS), DIY toolmaker <b>Stanley Black &amp; Decker</b> (NYSE:SWK), and windows and door manufacturer <b>JELD-WEN</b> (NYSE:JELD) fit the bill. Here's why.</p><h2>Masco</h2><p>Masco generates 81% of its sales in North America, so it's safe to say it's a play on the U.S. housing market. Masco operates out of two business segments, with plumbing products generating 67% of sales from North America and decorative architectural products only selling to North America. Both segments are heavily exposed to the repair and remodel market (83% of sales for the plumbing products segment and 96% for decorative architectural products).</p><p>That said, the reality is that a booming housing market is synonymous with rising house prices and good housing sales. These metrics are key drivers of the repair and remodel market. Consumers feel the wealth effect from rising house prices, and homes get remodeled in anticipation of a sale or after a purchase. On the latest earnings call, CEO Keith Allman said: \"Home price appreciation was up nearly 30% in December and existing home sales were up over 22% compared to the prior year. Each of these metrics has a strong correlation with our sales on a lag basis.\"</p><p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F620596%2Fgettyimages-91156679.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Masco sells a range of plumbing products. Image source: Getty Images</p><p>Allman forecasts that Masco's revenue will grow 2% to 6% organically in 2021 with a 3% contribution from acquisitions and 2% from favorable foreign exchange movement leading to total revenue growth of 7% to 11%. Earnings per share is forecast to be in the range of $3.25 to $3.45, representing a growth of 4.2% to 10.6%. That would be an excellent result in a year when Masco will lap the surge in home improvement spending that occurred in the second half of 2020 due to the pandemic.</p><p>Trading on less than 20 times current free cash flow  and with management expecting long-term organic revenue growth of 3% to 5% (plus 1% to 3% from acquisitions) and 10% growth in EPS, Masco looks to be a very good value if you think the U.S. is about to embark on a multi-year expansion the housing market.</p><p><img src=\"https://media.ycharts.com/charts/d193413db790ad80c721add3eea5643a.png\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"452\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Data by YCharts</p><h2>JELD-WEN</h2><p>Unlike most of the housing materials stocks, JELD-WEN sells more to the new residential construction market (47% of sales) than it does to the repair and remodel market (42% of sales). The remaining 11% of sales go to the non-residential construction market.</p><p>Slightly more than two-thirds of sales come from doors, with windows contributing 20% and ancillary products the remaining 13%. JELD is the leading player in North America's residential doors and the fifth-largest in residential windows. It's also No. 1 in both residential and non-residential doors in Europe. Overall, North America contributes almost 60% of its earnings. As such, U.S. new residential construction is probably the most crucial swing factor in its profits.</p><p>Management expects 4% to 7% revenue growth in 2021 with earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) rising 7.5% to 16.5% to between $480 million and $520 million.</p><p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F620596%2Fgettyimages-155418167.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"412\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><p>Management believes a combination of consolidating its sites and modernizing production will lead to significant cost savings and an EBITDA margin of more than 15% over the long term compared to 10.5% in 2020. As such, JELD is as much a turnaround play as it is a company to invest in to get exposure from increasing U.S. housing starts.</p><h2>Stanley Black &amp; Decker</h2><p>Finally, Stanley Black &amp; Decker has potential upside from an extended period of strength in the U.S. housing market. The first port of call for housing-focused investors is Stanley's tools and storage business (71% of revenue). Around 63% of the segment's income comes from the U.S., and approximately 61% of total company revenue comes from the U.S.</p><p>A more robust U.S. housing market would boost the tools segment's power and hand tools sales, construction and DIY sales, and the Craftsman DIY brand.</p><p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F620596%2Fdiy-tools.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Image source: Getty Images.</p><p>However, Stanley also has upside potential from its investment in lawn and garden products company MTD.

I think plumbing and architectural products company Masco (NYSE:MAS), DIY toolmaker Stanley Black & Decker (NYSE:SWK), and windows and door manufacturer JELD-WEN (NYSE:JELD) fit the bill. Here's why.MascoMasco generates 81% of its sales in North America, so it's safe to say it's a play on the U.S. housing market. Masco operates out of two business segments, with plumbing products generating 67% of sales from North America and decorative architectural products only selling to North America. Both segments are heavily exposed to the repair and remodel market (83% of sales for the plumbing products segment and 96% for decorative architectural products).That said, the reality is that a booming housing market is synonymous with rising house prices and good housing sales. These metrics are key drivers of the repair and remodel market. Consumers feel the wealth effect from rising house prices, and homes get remodeled in anticipation of a sale or after a purchase. On the latest earnings call, CEO Keith Allman said: \"Home price appreciation was up nearly 30% in December and existing home sales were up over 22% compared to the prior year. Each of these metrics has a strong correlation with our sales on a lag basis.\"Masco sells a range of plumbing products. Image source: Getty ImagesAllman forecasts that Masco's revenue will grow 2% to 6% organically in 2021 with a 3% contribution from acquisitions and 2% from favorable foreign exchange movement leading to total revenue growth of 7% to 11%. Earnings per share is forecast to be in the range of $3.25 to $3.45, representing a growth of 4.2% to 10.6%. That would be an excellent result in a year when Masco will lap the surge in home improvement spending that occurred in the second half of 2020 due to the pandemic.Trading on less than 20 times current free cash flow  and with management expecting long-term organic revenue growth of 3% to 5% (plus 1% to 3% from acquisitions) and 10% growth in EPS, Masco looks to be a very good value if you think the U.S. is about to embark on a multi-year expansion the housing market.Data by YChartsJELD-WENUnlike most of the housing materials stocks, JELD-WEN sells more to the new residential construction market (47% of sales) than it does to the repair and remodel market (42% of sales). The remaining 11% of sales go to the non-residential construction market.Slightly more than two-thirds of sales come from doors, with windows contributing 20% and ancillary products the remaining 13%. JELD is the leading player in North America's residential doors and the fifth-largest in residential windows. It's also No. 1 in both residential and non-residential doors in Europe. Overall, North America contributes almost 60% of its earnings. As such, U.S. new residential construction is probably the most crucial swing factor in its profits.Management expects 4% to 7% revenue growth in 2021 with earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) rising 7.5% to 16.5% to between $480 million and $520 million.Image source: Getty Images.Management believes a combination of consolidating its sites and modernizing production will lead to significant cost savings and an EBITDA margin of more than 15% over the long term compared to 10.5% in 2020. As such, JELD is as much a turnaround play as it is a company to invest in to get exposure from increasing U.S. housing starts.Stanley Black & DeckerFinally, Stanley Black & Decker has potential upside from an extended period of strength in the U.S. housing market. The first port of call for housing-focused investors is Stanley's tools and storage business (71% of revenue). Around 63% of the segment's income comes from the U.S., and approximately 61% of total company revenue comes from the U.S.A more robust U.S. housing market would boost the tools segment's power and hand tools sales, construction and DIY sales, and the Craftsman DIY brand.Image source: Getty Images.However, Stanley also has upside potential from its investment in lawn and garden products company MTD. Management plans to exercise the option to buy the remaining 80% of the company Stanley doesn't currently own. Stanley CEO Jim Loree said the company is \"working on a multi-year roadmap to achieve 15% operating margin in the category.\"For reference, MTD had an operating margin of 6% in 2020 on sales of $2.6 billion compared to Stanley's sales of $14.5 billion. A growing housing market probably means a stronger lawn and garden products market, and that would suit Stanley's growth aspirations just fine.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":22,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":349969914,"gmtCreate":1617521204038,"gmtModify":1704700213079,"author":{"id":"3579903850271065","authorId":"3579903850271065","name":"nicoco","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579903850271065","authorIdStr":"3579903850271065"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like","listText":"like","text":"like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/349969914","repostId":"1191998262","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1191998262","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1617366158,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1191998262?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-02 20:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"How Likely Is a Stock Market Crash?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1191998262","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"You may not like the answer.\n\nFor the past year, investors have enjoyed one of the greatest bounce-b","content":"<blockquote>\n You may not like the answer.\n</blockquote>\n<p>For the past year, investors have enjoyed one of the greatest bounce-back rallies of all time.

The planoutlines $2.251 trilliono","content":"<p>President Joe Biden introduced his American Jobs Plan on March 31. The planoutlines $2.251 trillionof estimated spending to improve the country and jobs for Americans. It is divided into four major sectors: infrastructure at home, transportation infrastructure, research and development (R&amp;D), workforce development and manufacturing, and the caretaking economy. As a result, infrastructure stocks are set to take off.</p><p>The effects of the announcement are sure to reverberate through the markets. That means certain sectors and stocks therein are going to appreciate in price. It’s very clear that finding the strongest operators in these sectors will be a surefire bet to chase near-certain gains. However, the plan will only become law if it passes later this summer. For that reason, it currently makes sense to invest in those sectors most likely to survive partisan rhetoric.</p><p>So, let’s look at some of those infrastructure stocks set to benefit from President Biden’s American Jobs Plan.</p><ul><li><b>ChargePointHoldings</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CHPT</u></b>)</li><li><b>Cleveland-Cliffs</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CLF</u></b>)</li><li><b>Vulcan Materials</b>(NYSE:<b><u>VMC</u></b>)</li><li><b>Brookfield Infrastructure Partners</b>(NYSE:<b><u>BIP</u></b>)</li><li><b>American Tower REIT</b>(NYSE:<b><u>AMT</u></b>)</li><li><b>Union Pacific</b>(NYSE:<b><u>UNP</u></b>)</li><li><b>Deere &amp; Co.</b>(NYSE:<b><u>DE</u></b>)</li></ul><p><b>Infrastructure Stocks: ChargePoint Holdings (CHPT)</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/43345974024b144fb37a872dd1771d90\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com</p><p>The American Jobs Plan includes $621 billion dedicated to transportation infrastructure. $174 billion of that is earmarked for electric vehicles (EVs). This will serve as a massive tailwind for ChargePoint Holdings.</p><p>ChargePoint Holdings is an EV charging network company that has been around since 2007. It has recently gone public. The recent tech and EV selloff pulled share prices down, but the long-term picture remains bright. And Biden’s commitment to accelerate the EV infrastructure buildout serves as an immediate catalyst.</p><p>ChargePoint has been building out the EV infrastructure charging network since 2007. Thus, it is a pioneer in the EV space. The other pioneering American name in the space,<b>Tesla</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>TSLA</u></b>), didn’t release its first vehicle until 2008.</p><p>ChargePoint currently boasts a network of over 132,000 places to charge vehicles in North America and Europe. Additionally, it has 7X more market share than its next closest competitor in networked level 2 charging.</p><p>CHPT stock only began trading on the<b>New York Stock Exchange</b>on March 1, following its initial public offering (IPO) with Switchback Energy. 2020 fiscal year revenuesincreased to $146.5 million, from $144.5 million in 2019. The company is still experiencing losses and will continue to do so. It remains a long-term play, but the short-term catalyst is there.</p><p><b>Cleveland-Cliffs (CLF)</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d58f5a192f0b60a4852a611a526745a5\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: IgorGolovniov / Shutterstock.com</p><p>My next pick on this list of infrastructure stocks is CLF. The proposed infrastructure buildout is going to require lots of steel. Cleveland-Cliffs mines ore and manufactures just about every kind of steel imaginable. Biden’s plan calls for $650 billion in spending on infrastructure at home and $621 billion of spending on transportation infrastructure. Therefore, investors can easily understand the opportunity for a leading steelmaker like Cleveland-Cliffs.</p><p>Investors already keen to make a play on steel manufacturing may be considering a few other names, including<b>Nucor</b>(NYSE:<b><u>NUE</u></b>) and<b>ArcelorMittal</b>(NYSE:<b><u>MT</u></b>). However, there’s good reason to consider Cleveland-Cliffs over either of them. Firstly, Nucor is already above its pre-pandemic price, and it looks like investors have already rotated into it as a cyclical play. All of its growth seems to be priced into current share prices.</p><p>Cleveland-Cliffs acquired substantially all of ArcelorMittal’s U.S. operations back in December. CLF stock has been trending upward since, and it looks like it should continue on the infrastructure plan news.</p><p>CLF’s stock appreciation has outpaced its peersover the past three years. The company also acquired AK steel in 2020. The acquisitions have transformed Cleveland-Cliffs into the largest flat-rolled steel manufacturer in North America.</p><p><b>Vulcan Materials (VMC)</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/39932fac423a7a708494a061632593d1\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: madamF / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Vulcan Materials is the United States’ largest producer of construction aggregates. This includes crushed stone, sand, gravel, asphalt and concrete. Under Biden’s plan, $115 billion has been earmarked for improving highways, bridges and roads.</p><p>Vulcanoperations serve 19 of the 25fastest growing U.S. markets. Moreover, the company operates across what is essentially the southern half of the continental U.S. Growth in this geography’s population, household and employment is projected to far outpace the areas Vulcan Materials doesn’t operate in. Therefore, Vulcan Materials has a strong ability to capture a higher portion of that $115 billion in spending.</p><p>For the full year 2020, Vulcan Materials recorded$4.86 billion in revenue, a record EBITDA of $1.324 billion and earnings of $585 million. The company focused on improved efficiency during the pandemic year. Revenues declined by 1%, yet profits increased 2%.</p><p>Vulcan Materials CEO Tom Hill noted gains in construction employment as a positive catalyst of late for the company. This infrastructure plan only strengthens the case for investing in VMC stock.</p><p><b>Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (BIP)</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/259558d5e4a485a8520b52e65a9ac51e\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Shutterstock</p><p>Brookfield Infrastructure Partners manages a portfolio of infrastructure assets, making it a natural pick for this list of infrastructure stocks. The company’s holdings include assets across utilities, transport, energy and data infrastructure. Therefore, the company has wide exposure to many of the sectors Biden’s plan intends to address.</p><p>One thing that I appreciate about Brookfield Infrastructure Partners is that the company sets out clear expectations for potential investors. It states that its objective is “to generate a long-term return of 12-15% on equity and provide sustainable distributionsfor unitholders while targeting annual distribution growth of 5-9%.”</p><p>The company has grown over the past year on a net income basis. Net income in 2020 reached $394 million, up from $233 million in the year prior. Perhaps as important, the company saw a large increase in revenues during 2020. Brookfield Infrastructure Partners recorded$8.885 billion in 2020 revenues. In 2019, that figure was a much more modest $6.597 billion.</p><p>So the company itself looks to be in strong position, regardless of the positive catalyst provided by President Biden’s American Jobs Plan. The company israted overweightby Wall Street analysts, and its Q4 earnings-per-share (EPS) earnings beat along with all of the other positives make it a strong play right now.</p><p><b>American Tower REIT (AMT)</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d7ceef64c5fa59dffdd1dd6a453f1e43\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Pavel Kapysh / Shutterstock.com</p><p>American Tower REIT (real estate investment trust) is another stock that Wall Street is fond of at present.Eight analysts rate it a buy, while only one rates it a hold. The company builds and operates cell phone towers across the globe. I like this stock as a broader play on the buildout of 5G in the United States. It just makes sense to invest in it as a play on a different narrative in 5G than network competition. AMT stock recently dropped below $200 and has rebounded sharply in the past three weeks to around $240 per share.</p><p>American Tower REIT released Q4 and full-year earnings back on Feb. 25. Althoughrevenue, net income and EBITDA all increasedfor the full year, AMT stock pitched downward for the next week and a half. Perhaps this was attributable to the fact that it missed quarterly EPS expectations. In any case, AMT shares are up again and more than retraced the prior losses.</p><p>Biden’s plan calls for a $100 billion investment into high-speed broadband. Although his plan hasn’t been enacted as law, broadband will certainly be less contentious than some green initiatives. American Tower REIT should benefit along with other infrastructure stocks.</p><p><b>Union Pacific (UNP)</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ccda0ccf43b233e8fd63d9138bde861f\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Michael Rosebrock / Shutterstock.com</p><p>Union Pacific is a company and a stock with a few overarching catalysts currently. Firstly, Union Pacific is a strong economic reopening play. Freight is a highly cyclical portion of the economy, and investors are rotating in. Some investors may worry that gains are already priced in. It doesn’t appear so. UNP stock is still below analyst target prices by roughly $10.</p><p>That tangent aside, let’s get back to the overarching catalysts in Union Pacific’s favor. Secondly,Biden’s Jobs for America Plan includes $80 billion of investment toward passenger and freight rail. Both scenarios bode well for Union Pacific and owners of its stock.</p><p>Union Pacific also has a few strong metrics backing it as a business. Its net margin, return on equity and return on assets areall above the 90th percentileof peers in the transportation industry. Further, Union Pacific is broadly value-creating with a return on capital that exceeds its cost of capital.</p><p><b>Deere &amp; Co. (DE)</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a577460eb08f8218ccf86b5929ad86c2\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Shutterstock</p><p>Last on this list of infrastructure stocks is Deere &amp; Co. stock. DE stock was flat through all of 2018 and 2019. Shares pretty much hovered around $155, give or take five or 10 bucks. However, DE stock has shot skyward over the past year. Shares are up 233% from the pandemic trough and a still very respectable 127% from pre-pandemic prices.</p><p>Some readers will wonder if that means that most of the getting has been gotten. Analyst target prices indicate there’s room left for growth on average. Optimistic estimates suggest there’s another $50-60 until DE shares max out.</p><p>Although many readers will associate Deere &amp; Co. with lawn mowers and smaller tractors, the company also manufactures a lot of construction equipment. The obvious catalyst here is that Biden’s investment into infrastructure requires the purchase and utilization of construction equipment.</p><p>Deere has drawn so much interest lately because it has been performing well. In Q1 of 2021, revenues and sales increased by 19% to $9.112 billion year-over-year. Investors welcomed that news, of course. But where the company really shined was in profits. Net incomeincreased to $1.224 billion, up 137% from $517 million. The company has figured out how to increase efficiency within its operations. Its goal to reach 15% margins by 2022 is underpinned by smarter machines and maximizing vehicle up time.

The planoutlines $2.251 trillionof estimated spending to improve the country and jobs for Americans. It is divided into four major sectors: infrastructure at home, transportation infrastructure, research and development (R&D), workforce development and manufacturing, and the caretaking economy. As a result, infrastructure stocks are set to take off.The effects of the announcement are sure to reverberate through the markets. That means certain sectors and stocks therein are going to appreciate in price. It’s very clear that finding the strongest operators in these sectors will be a surefire bet to chase near-certain gains. However, the plan will only become law if it passes later this summer. For that reason, it currently makes sense to invest in those sectors most likely to survive partisan rhetoric.So, let’s look at some of those infrastructure stocks set to benefit from President Biden’s American Jobs Plan.ChargePointHoldings(NYSE:CHPT)Cleveland-Cliffs(NYSE:CLF)Vulcan Materials(NYSE:VMC)Brookfield Infrastructure Partners(NYSE:BIP)American Tower REIT(NYSE:AMT)Union Pacific(NYSE:UNP)Deere & Co.(NYSE:DE)Infrastructure Stocks: ChargePoint Holdings (CHPT)Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.comThe American Jobs Plan includes $621 billion dedicated to transportation infrastructure. $174 billion of that is earmarked for electric vehicles (EVs). This will serve as a massive tailwind for ChargePoint Holdings.ChargePoint Holdings is an EV charging network company that has been around since 2007. It has recently gone public. The recent tech and EV selloff pulled share prices down, but the long-term picture remains bright. And Biden’s commitment to accelerate the EV infrastructure buildout serves as an immediate catalyst.ChargePoint has been building out the EV infrastructure charging network since 2007. Thus, it is a pioneer in the EV space. The other pioneering American name in the space,Tesla(NASDAQ:TSLA), didn’t release its first vehicle until 2008.ChargePoint currently boasts a network of over 132,000 places to charge vehicles in North America and Europe. Additionally, it has 7X more market share than its next closest competitor in networked level 2 charging.CHPT stock only began trading on theNew York Stock Exchangeon March 1, following its initial public offering (IPO) with Switchback Energy. 2020 fiscal year revenuesincreased to $146.5 million, from $144.5 million in 2019. The company is still experiencing losses and will continue to do so. It remains a long-term play, but the short-term catalyst is there.Cleveland-Cliffs (CLF)Source: IgorGolovniov / Shutterstock.comMy next pick on this list of infrastructure stocks is CLF. The proposed infrastructure buildout is going to require lots of steel. Cleveland-Cliffs mines ore and manufactures just about every kind of steel imaginable. Biden’s plan calls for $650 billion in spending on infrastructure at home and $621 billion of spending on transportation infrastructure. Therefore, investors can easily understand the opportunity for a leading steelmaker like Cleveland-Cliffs.Investors already keen to make a play on steel manufacturing may be considering a few other names, includingNucor(NYSE:NUE) andArcelorMittal(NYSE:MT). However, there’s good reason to consider Cleveland-Cliffs over either of them. Firstly, Nucor is already above its pre-pandemic price, and it looks like investors have already rotated into it as a cyclical play. All of its growth seems to be priced into current share prices.Cleveland-Cliffs acquired substantially all of ArcelorMittal’s U.S. operations back in December. CLF stock has been trending upward since, and it looks like it should continue on the infrastructure plan news.CLF’s stock appreciation has outpaced its peersover the past three years. The company also acquired AK steel in 2020. The acquisitions have transformed Cleveland-Cliffs into the largest flat-rolled steel manufacturer in North America.Vulcan Materials (VMC)Source: madamF / Shutterstock.comVulcan Materials is the United States’ largest producer of construction aggregates. This includes crushed stone, sand, gravel, asphalt and concrete. Under Biden’s plan, $115 billion has been earmarked for improving highways, bridges and roads.Vulcanoperations serve 19 of the 25fastest growing U.S. markets. Moreover, the company operates across what is essentially the southern half of the continental U.S. Growth in this geography’s population, household and employment is projected to far outpace the areas Vulcan Materials doesn’t operate in. Therefore, Vulcan Materials has a strong ability to capture a higher portion of that $115 billion in spending.For the full year 2020, Vulcan Materials recorded$4.86 billion in revenue, a record EBITDA of $1.324 billion and earnings of $585 million. The company focused on improved efficiency during the pandemic year. Revenues declined by 1%, yet profits increased 2%.Vulcan Materials CEO Tom Hill noted gains in construction employment as a positive catalyst of late for the company. This infrastructure plan only strengthens the case for investing in VMC stock.Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (BIP)Source: ShutterstockBrookfield Infrastructure Partners manages a portfolio of infrastructure assets, making it a natural pick for this list of infrastructure stocks. The company’s holdings include assets across utilities, transport, energy and data infrastructure. Therefore, the company has wide exposure to many of the sectors Biden’s plan intends to address.One thing that I appreciate about Brookfield Infrastructure Partners is that the company sets out clear expectations for potential investors. It states that its objective is “to generate a long-term return of 12-15% on equity and provide sustainable distributionsfor unitholders while targeting annual distribution growth of 5-9%.”The company has grown over the past year on a net income basis. Net income in 2020 reached $394 million, up from $233 million in the year prior. Perhaps as important, the company saw a large increase in revenues during 2020. Brookfield Infrastructure Partners recorded$8.885 billion in 2020 revenues. In 2019, that figure was a much more modest $6.597 billion.So the company itself looks to be in strong position, regardless of the positive catalyst provided by President Biden’s American Jobs Plan. The company israted overweightby Wall Street analysts, and its Q4 earnings-per-share (EPS) earnings beat along with all of the other positives make it a strong play right now.American Tower REIT (AMT)Source: Pavel Kapysh / Shutterstock.comAmerican Tower REIT (real estate investment trust) is another stock that Wall Street is fond of at present.Eight analysts rate it a buy, while only one rates it a hold. The company builds and operates cell phone towers across the globe. I like this stock as a broader play on the buildout of 5G in the United States. It just makes sense to invest in it as a play on a different narrative in 5G than network competition. AMT stock recently dropped below $200 and has rebounded sharply in the past three weeks to around $240 per share.American Tower REIT released Q4 and full-year earnings back on Feb. 25. Althoughrevenue, net income and EBITDA all increasedfor the full year, AMT stock pitched downward for the next week and a half. Perhaps this was attributable to the fact that it missed quarterly EPS expectations. In any case, AMT shares are up again and more than retraced the prior losses.Biden’s plan calls for a $100 billion investment into high-speed broadband. Although his plan hasn’t been enacted as law, broadband will certainly be less contentious than some green initiatives. American Tower REIT should benefit along with other infrastructure stocks.Union Pacific (UNP)Source: Michael Rosebrock / Shutterstock.comUnion Pacific is a company and a stock with a few overarching catalysts currently. Firstly, Union Pacific is a strong economic reopening play. Freight is a highly cyclical portion of the economy, and investors are rotating in. Some investors may worry that gains are already priced in. It doesn’t appear so. UNP stock is still below analyst target prices by roughly $10.That tangent aside, let’s get back to the overarching catalysts in Union Pacific’s favor. Secondly,Biden’s Jobs for America Plan includes $80 billion of investment toward passenger and freight rail. Both scenarios bode well for Union Pacific and owners of its stock.Union Pacific also has a few strong metrics backing it as a business. Its net margin, return on equity and return on assets areall above the 90th percentileof peers in the transportation industry. Further, Union Pacific is broadly value-creating with a return on capital that exceeds its cost of capital.Deere & Co. (DE)Source: ShutterstockLast on this list of infrastructure stocks is Deere & Co. stock. DE stock was flat through all of 2018 and 2019. Shares pretty much hovered around $155, give or take five or 10 bucks. However, DE stock has shot skyward over the past year. Shares are up 233% from the pandemic trough and a still very respectable 127% from pre-pandemic prices.Some readers will wonder if that means that most of the getting has been gotten. Analyst target prices indicate there’s room left for growth on average. Optimistic estimates suggest there’s another $50-60 until DE shares max out.Although many readers will associate Deere & Co. with lawn mowers and smaller tractors, the company also manufactures a lot of construction equipment. The obvious catalyst here is that Biden’s investment into infrastructure requires the purchase and utilization of construction equipment.Deere has drawn so much interest lately because it has been performing well. In Q1 of 2021, revenues and sales increased by 19% to $9.112 billion year-over-year. Investors welcomed that news, of course. But where the company really shined was in profits. Net incomeincreased to $1.224 billion, up 137% from $517 million. The company has figured out how to increase efficiency within its operations. Its goal to reach 15% margins by 2022 is underpinned by smarter machines and maximizing vehicle up time. The results have been positive so far, and infrastructure investments will only help.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":51,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
