(F), Caterpillar (CAT), and 3M Co. (MMM) propelled the U.S. (and the world) forward in the early 20th Century with major industrial innovations, the semiconductor manufacturers are driving the technology revolution of the 21st Century.</p>\n<p>It seems like chips are needed in everything these days,andthe pressure is on to make things faster, smaller, and cheaper.</p>\n<p>That said, while most semiconductor stocks have been enjoying a nice rally this year (for good reason),IntelCorp. (INTC) was apparently not invited to the party (or maybe it's just late?).</p>\n<p>As shown in the chart below, the bifurcation between the winners and the losers in the space has become quite clear over the past 6 months. Chip darlings like NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) are up 52.9% and 24.5%, respectively.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Intel is down 14.9% and Micron Technology (MU) is down over 20%!</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/197282917802a0c939a75f60ec792487\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"467\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>While we have recently penned our thoughts about&nbsp;Micron,NVIDIA, and&nbsp;Advanced Micro Devices, it's time to dig deeper into Intel too.</p>\n<p>To be fair, Intel has had its fair share of challenges this year,despitegeneral tailwinds in the industry (i.e., chip demand far outpacing supply).</p>\n<p>Specifically, Intel has had some well-documented manufacturing blunders that have caused major delays (and loss of some market share). This has triggered concern amongst investors that the stock may be a potential \"value trap\" now.</p>\n<p>All that said, I'm definitely in the camp that believes that this industry veteran could still be a coiled spring ready to pop with potential to close the gap with some of the winners (like NVDA and AMD).</p>\n<p>Personally, I don't think we are anywhere near peak demand for chips and I believe that Intel's fabrication capabilities are (and will continue to be) a huge advantage for the company for years to come.</p>\n<p>The rest of this article will take a quantitative look at Intel to confirm my qualitative assumptions that the stock should be trading higher from here:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Long-Term Thesis (Dividend, Safety, Value)</li>\n <li>Short-Term Thesis (Strike Zone, EPS Risk, Technical Support)</li>\n <li>Upside Target</li>\n <li>Cash-Secured Put Analysis (Premium Yield, Margin-of-Safety, Delta)</li>\n <li>Downside Considerations</li>\n <li>Conclusion</li>\n</ul>\n<p><i>Sources for all data and tables below: Option Income Advisor and YCharts</i></p>\n<p><b>Intel Corp.</b></p>\n<blockquote>\n Sector/Industry: Technology / Semiconductors\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Intel is the world's largest chipmaker. It designs and manufactures microprocessors for the global personal computer and data center markets. Intel pioneered the x86 architecture for microprocessors. It was the prime proponent of Moore's Law for advances in semiconductor manufacturing, though the firm has recently faced manufacturing delays. While Intel's server processor business has benefited from the shift to the cloud, the firm has also been expanding into new adjacencies as the personal computer market has stagnated. These include areas such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and automotive. Intel has been active on the merger and acquisitions front, acquiring Altera, Mobileye, and Habana Labs in order to bolster these efforts in non-PC arenas.\n <i>(Source:</i>\n <i>YCharts</i>\n <i>)</i>\n</blockquote>\n<p><b>Long-Term Thesis (Dividend, Safety, Value)</b></p>\n<p>In general, our high-level long-term investment thesis on a stock is more quantitative in nature than qualitative.</p>\n<p>That said, Intel currently ranks very well across our key long-term ranking measures: Dividend (7), Safety (8), Value (10)</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/409ba12610069e477e6973a53eabf653\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"124\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Note that our rankings are from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).</span></p>\n<p><b>Dividend</b></p>\n<p>Intel has raised its dividend in each of the past seven years and currently yields 2.6% with a reasonably low payout ratio of 29.1%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8b59d73a44d9e1f67468b8fdd556e45d\" tg-width=\"566\" tg-height=\"347\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>In addition, the company has steadily been growing its annual payout, with 1-year, 5-year, and 10-year compound annual growth rates of 4.8%, 6.6%, and 7.7%, respectively.</p>\n<p><b>Safety</b></p>\n<p>Up until 2020, Intel had experienced relatively stable sales and EPS growth. However, manufacturing delays over the past year or so have caused sales and EPS to dip. Management does expect operations to stabilize in 2022 and 2023.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/88ce38e4effa43f86f74784d75217bf6\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"245\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Option Income Advisor / YCharts</span></p>\n<p>That said, the company's balance sheet remains strong with $25 billion of cash/short-term investments and management is producing a solid return on invested capital of 16%.</p>\n<p>Intel's low historical stock volatility, with a five-year standard deviation of 29% and a beta of 0.60, is also adding to its relatively high Safety Ranking.</p>\n<p><b>Valuation</b></p>\n<p>Intel currently carries our top rating of 10 for valuation. As shown in the table below, the company is trading at a discount compared to its historical averages across all 4 valuation multiples we look at.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e7036b246d6d8630a59b53041a502b8e\" tg-width=\"572\" tg-height=\"229\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>Intel also has a very attractive shareholder yield of 8.3%.<i>Note that shareholder yield is the combination of buyback yield and dividend yield.</i></p>\n<p><b>Long-Term View</b></p>\n<p>Based on the data above and our various rankings, we have a Bullish long-term perspective on Intel. Although sales and EPS are just starting to stabilize from the recent dip, the company's valuation and volatility profile are very attractive.</p>\n<p><b>Short-Term Thesis (Strike Zone, EPS Risk, Technical Support)</b></p>\n<p>From a short-term perspective (especially as it's related to selling cash-secured puts), estimating a good \"strike zone\" is key to our analysis. Our strike zone takes into account (1) the stock's volatility, (2) recent performance (i.e., how much has it already pulled back from its recent highs), (3) near-term EPS risk, and (4) the overall volatility of the market (i.e., VIX level).</p>\n<p>As shown in the table below, our strike zone for Intel currently is $47.00-$51.00, representing a required minimum margin of safety of 5.3%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c01b1ac65c7cbccb50edf71635ab87c2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"163\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>As discussed in the safety ranking analysis above, Intel ranks positively on a relative basis for stock Volatility/Risk. In addition, the stock has already pulled back over 21% from its recent high (so its Pullback Indicator also ranks positively). Both of these strike zone factors help keep the minimum required margin of safety at a reasonable level of 5.3%.</p>\n<p>Also, Intel's next EPS announcement is 58 days out, so we won't have any EPS risk to worry about in the near term.</p>\n<p>As shown in the chart below, the stock's uptrend has been broken with shares trading below both the 50-day moving average (blue line) and the 200-day moving average (red line). That said, we think the stock could have put in a short-term bottom around $52.00 a few days ago and we would look for that level to hold as support.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/322a2276f8f4edb75ed9e614f7a547e4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"451\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p><b>Short-Term View</b></p>\n<p>There appears to be some decent technical support around the high end of our strike zone of $47.00-$51.00,whichobviously makes us feel relatively good about holding the stock and potentially selling additional cash-secured puts in the strike zone if we can.</p>\n<p><b>Upside Considerations (Target Price)</b></p>\n<p>Despite 26 of the 42 Wall Street analysts having a \"Hold\" rating or lower on the stock, the consensus price target for Intel is still $63.00 (representing over 17% upside from current levels).</p>\n<p>Also, with so many analysts currently at \"Hold\" or below, it opens the door for a flurry of upgrades in the future (which typically come with price target hikes as well). This catalyst could be significant.</p>\n<p>That said, we also think that there's definitely some room for margin expansion for Intel in the short term as the company's earnings stabilize.</p>\n<p>If you put just a 15x multiple on forward earnings of $4.50 per share, that would equate to a $67.50 stock price (representing over 25% upside from current levels).</p>\n<p><b>Cash-Secured Put Analysis (Premium Yield, Margin-of-Safety, Delta)</b></p>\n<p>Although we already own the stock, we think that now is a good time to potentially add to our position and ride the upside.</p>\n<p>For new investors, we think the stock is really attractive at current levels and would recommend it as a buy.</p>\n<p>We primarily trade an income strategy that we call the Triple Income Wheel, which starts with writing cash-secured puts on high-quality stocks that you would like to own at a lower price. We won't go into full detail here, but the diagram below is a good summary of the strategy.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/25fe478b0167c759cd88403a036f0f0c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"640\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Option Income Advisor)</span></p>\n<p>Ideally, when we sell a cash-secured put and start the Triple Income Wheel process, our put is in our \"Strike Zone\" for that stock. In our opinion, that puts the odds of long-term success in our favor.</p>\n<p>The three main data points we look at when analyzing a cash-secured put trade are:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Premium Yield% (or Average Monthly Yield%): Measure of expected return on capital assuming that the option expires worthless (out-of-the-money).<i>Assumes that the option is fully cash secured.</i></li>\n <li>Margin-of-Safety %: Measure of downside protection or the percentage that the underlying stock could decline and would still allow you to break even on the option trade.</li>\n <li>Delta: A good proxy for the probability that the put option will finish in-the-money.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><i>Note that there's always a negative correlation between Premium Yield and Margin of Safety: The higher the Premium Yield for a given strike month, the lower the Margin of Safety.</i></p>\n<p><i>An investor always should be honest with themselves about their risk tolerance. The Triple Income Wheel can be adapted to suit your needs.</i></p>\n<p>Now let's look at the cash-secured put analysis for Intel. We're focused on the September monthly contract that expires on 9/17/21.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fca238403b1a39eadf67d5459adca855\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"367\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>(Source: Option Income Advisor)</span></p>\n<p>We have highlighted three levels of trades based on various risk profiles: Aggressive (-A-), Base (-B-), and Conservative (-C-).<i>Please listen to the video above for further details.</i></p>\n<p>Ideally, we like to stick with our target levels for our Base portfolio:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Average Monthly Yield % (AMY%): 1.0%-1.5%</li>\n <li>Strike price that is in the strike zone (i.e., margin of safety above the required minimum)</li>\n <li>Delta &lt; 30</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The INTC Sept 17th $52.00 put option @ ~$0.50 meets all of our criteria with an AMY% of 1.3%, a Margin-of-Safety of 3.4%, and a Delta of 26.</p>\n<p><i>Again, based on your risk tolerance, you could choose a strike price that is more aggressive ($52.50 strike) or more conservative ($50.00 strike) than the base trade.</i></p>\n<p><b>Downside Considerations</b></p>\n<p>Assuming we sold the INTC Sept 17th $52.00 strike put option @ $0.50, we would collect $50.00 of premium for each option contract sold.

(F), Caterpillar (CAT), and 3M Co. (MMM) propelled the U.S. (and the world) forward in the early 20th Century with major industrial innovations, the semiconductor manufacturers are driving the technology revolution of the 21st Century.\nIt seems like chips are needed in everything these days,andthe pressure is on to make things faster, smaller, and cheaper.\nThat said, while most semiconductor stocks have been enjoying a nice rally this year (for good reason),IntelCorp. (INTC) was apparently not invited to the party (or maybe it's just late?).\nAs shown in the chart below, the bifurcation between the winners and the losers in the space has become quite clear over the past 6 months. Chip darlings like NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) are up 52.9% and 24.5%, respectively.\nMeanwhile, Intel is down 14.9% and Micron Technology (MU) is down over 20%!\nData by YCharts\nWhile we have recently penned our thoughts about Micron,NVIDIA, and Advanced Micro Devices, it's time to dig deeper into Intel too.\nTo be fair, Intel has had its fair share of challenges this year,despitegeneral tailwinds in the industry (i.e., chip demand far outpacing supply).\nSpecifically, Intel has had some well-documented manufacturing blunders that have caused major delays (and loss of some market share). This has triggered concern amongst investors that the stock may be a potential \"value trap\" now.\nAll that said, I'm definitely in the camp that believes that this industry veteran could still be a coiled spring ready to pop with potential to close the gap with some of the winners (like NVDA and AMD).\nPersonally, I don't think we are anywhere near peak demand for chips and I believe that Intel's fabrication capabilities are (and will continue to be) a huge advantage for the company for years to come.\nThe rest of this article will take a quantitative look at Intel to confirm my qualitative assumptions that the stock should be trading higher from here:\n\nLong-Term Thesis (Dividend, Safety, Value)\nShort-Term Thesis (Strike Zone, EPS Risk, Technical Support)\nUpside Target\nCash-Secured Put Analysis (Premium Yield, Margin-of-Safety, Delta)\nDownside Considerations\nConclusion\n\nSources for all data and tables below: Option Income Advisor and YCharts\nIntel Corp.\n\n Sector/Industry: Technology / Semiconductors\n\n\n Intel is the world's largest chipmaker. It designs and manufactures microprocessors for the global personal computer and data center markets. Intel pioneered the x86 architecture for microprocessors. It was the prime proponent of Moore's Law for advances in semiconductor manufacturing, though the firm has recently faced manufacturing delays. While Intel's server processor business has benefited from the shift to the cloud, the firm has also been expanding into new adjacencies as the personal computer market has stagnated. These include areas such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and automotive. Intel has been active on the merger and acquisitions front, acquiring Altera, Mobileye, and Habana Labs in order to bolster these efforts in non-PC arenas.\n (Source:\nYCharts\n)\n\nLong-Term Thesis (Dividend, Safety, Value)\nIn general, our high-level long-term investment thesis on a stock is more quantitative in nature than qualitative.\nThat said, Intel currently ranks very well across our key long-term ranking measures: Dividend (7), Safety (8), Value (10)\nNote that our rankings are from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).\nDividend\nIntel has raised its dividend in each of the past seven years and currently yields 2.6% with a reasonably low payout ratio of 29.1%.\n\nIn addition, the company has steadily been growing its annual payout, with 1-year, 5-year, and 10-year compound annual growth rates of 4.8%, 6.6%, and 7.7%, respectively.\nSafety\nUp until 2020, Intel had experienced relatively stable sales and EPS growth. However, manufacturing delays over the past year or so have caused sales and EPS to dip. Management does expect operations to stabilize in 2022 and 2023.\nSource: Option Income Advisor / YCharts\nThat said, the company's balance sheet remains strong with $25 billion of cash/short-term investments and management is producing a solid return on invested capital of 16%.\nIntel's low historical stock volatility, with a five-year standard deviation of 29% and a beta of 0.60, is also adding to its relatively high Safety Ranking.\nValuation\nIntel currently carries our top rating of 10 for valuation. As shown in the table below, the company is trading at a discount compared to its historical averages across all 4 valuation multiples we look at.\n\nIntel also has a very attractive shareholder yield of 8.3%.Note that shareholder yield is the combination of buyback yield and dividend yield.\nLong-Term View\nBased on the data above and our various rankings, we have a Bullish long-term perspective on Intel. Although sales and EPS are just starting to stabilize from the recent dip, the company's valuation and volatility profile are very attractive.\nShort-Term Thesis (Strike Zone, EPS Risk, Technical Support)\nFrom a short-term perspective (especially as it's related to selling cash-secured puts), estimating a good \"strike zone\" is key to our analysis. Our strike zone takes into account (1) the stock's volatility, (2) recent performance (i.e., how much has it already pulled back from its recent highs), (3) near-term EPS risk, and (4) the overall volatility of the market (i.e., VIX level).\nAs shown in the table below, our strike zone for Intel currently is $47.00-$51.00, representing a required minimum margin of safety of 5.3%.\n\nAs discussed in the safety ranking analysis above, Intel ranks positively on a relative basis for stock Volatility/Risk. In addition, the stock has already pulled back over 21% from its recent high (so its Pullback Indicator also ranks positively). Both of these strike zone factors help keep the minimum required margin of safety at a reasonable level of 5.3%.\nAlso, Intel's next EPS announcement is 58 days out, so we won't have any EPS risk to worry about in the near term.\nAs shown in the chart below, the stock's uptrend has been broken with shares trading below both the 50-day moving average (blue line) and the 200-day moving average (red line). That said, we think the stock could have put in a short-term bottom around $52.00 a few days ago and we would look for that level to hold as support.\n\nShort-Term View\nThere appears to be some decent technical support around the high end of our strike zone of $47.00-$51.00,whichobviously makes us feel relatively good about holding the stock and potentially selling additional cash-secured puts in the strike zone if we can.\nUpside Considerations (Target Price)\nDespite 26 of the 42 Wall Street analysts having a \"Hold\" rating or lower on the stock, the consensus price target for Intel is still $63.00 (representing over 17% upside from current levels).\nAlso, with so many analysts currently at \"Hold\" or below, it opens the door for a flurry of upgrades in the future (which typically come with price target hikes as well). This catalyst could be significant.\nThat said, we also think that there's definitely some room for margin expansion for Intel in the short term as the company's earnings stabilize.\nIf you put just a 15x multiple on forward earnings of $4.50 per share, that would equate to a $67.50 stock price (representing over 25% upside from current levels).\nCash-Secured Put Analysis (Premium Yield, Margin-of-Safety, Delta)\nAlthough we already own the stock, we think that now is a good time to potentially add to our position and ride the upside.\nFor new investors, we think the stock is really attractive at current levels and would recommend it as a buy.\nWe primarily trade an income strategy that we call the Triple Income Wheel, which starts with writing cash-secured puts on high-quality stocks that you would like to own at a lower price. We won't go into full detail here, but the diagram below is a good summary of the strategy.\n(Source: Option Income Advisor)\nIdeally, when we sell a cash-secured put and start the Triple Income Wheel process, our put is in our \"Strike Zone\" for that stock. In our opinion, that puts the odds of long-term success in our favor.\nThe three main data points we look at when analyzing a cash-secured put trade are:\n\nPremium Yield% (or Average Monthly Yield%): Measure of expected return on capital assuming that the option expires worthless (out-of-the-money).Assumes that the option is fully cash secured.\nMargin-of-Safety %: Measure of downside protection or the percentage that the underlying stock could decline and would still allow you to break even on the option trade.\nDelta: A good proxy for the probability that the put option will finish in-the-money.\n\nNote that there's always a negative correlation between Premium Yield and Margin of Safety: The higher the Premium Yield for a given strike month, the lower the Margin of Safety.\nAn investor always should be honest with themselves about their risk tolerance. The Triple Income Wheel can be adapted to suit your needs.\nNow let's look at the cash-secured put analysis for Intel. We're focused on the September monthly contract that expires on 9/17/21.\n(Source: Option Income Advisor)\nWe have highlighted three levels of trades based on various risk profiles: Aggressive (-A-), Base (-B-), and Conservative (-C-).Please listen to the video above for further details.\nIdeally, we like to stick with our target levels for our Base portfolio:\n\nAverage Monthly Yield % (AMY%): 1.0%-1.5%\nStrike price that is in the strike zone (i.e., margin of safety above the required minimum)\nDelta < 30\n\nThe INTC Sept 17th $52.00 put option @ ~$0.50 meets all of our criteria with an AMY% of 1.3%, a Margin-of-Safety of 3.4%, and a Delta of 26.\nAgain, based on your risk tolerance, you could choose a strike price that is more aggressive ($52.50 strike) or more conservative ($50.00 strike) than the base trade.\nDownside Considerations\nAssuming we sold the INTC Sept 17th $52.00 strike put option @ $0.50, we would collect $50.00 of premium for each option contract sold. In return for this premium, we agree (and are obligated) to buy 100 shares of INTC stock for each contract sold at the strike price of $52.00.\nIf the stock stays above $52.00 between now and expiration (9/17/21), the option expires worthless and we keep the premium of $0.50.\nHowever,the downside of this trade comes into play if the stock closes below $52.00 on expiration (9/17/21). Since we're obligated to buy the stock at $52.00, we would have a potential unrealized capital loss on our hands (depending on how low the stock closed on expiration). We do get to keep the premium either way though, so our breakeven cost basis would be $51.50 ($52.00 - $0.50).\nAll that said, when managing the Triple Income Wheel, you should expect to take assignment (buy the stock) on 5%-10% of your cash-secured put trades.\nBut when this happens, we get to move to step 3 in the diagram above and sell some covered calls on our stock position to start the income flowing again and start mitigating our risk right away.\nConclusion\nBased on our long-term and short-term views on Intel, we believe that the stock is a good buy at current levels,butit's even a bigger win if you can add to your Intel position with a cost basis of $51.50 (and sit back and collect the dividend as the stock rises).","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":221,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":837992008,"gmtCreate":1629851343204,"gmtModify":1676530150021,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Higher and higher.","listText":"Higher and higher.","text":"Higher and higher.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/837992008","repostId":"1118026600","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":529,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":837999476,"gmtCreate":1629851149095,"gmtModify":1676530149924,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"More years.","listText":"More years.","text":"More years.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/837999476","repostId":"1167446644","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":400,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":837907228,"gmtCreate":1629851046764,"gmtModify":1676530149881,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Consistent.","listText":"Consistent.","text":"Consistent.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/837907228","repostId":"2161081224","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":389,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":837901632,"gmtCreate":1629850824926,"gmtModify":1676530149646,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Finally.

That support is credited with heading off a financial crisis and paving the way for a rapid economic rebound.\nA White House official last month said Biden would soon be engaging his senior economic team in \"a careful and thoughtful process\" about Fed appointments.\nPowell has his share of critics, including members of the climate activist group 350.org, who are calling on Biden to nominate a \"climate leader\" to replace Powell and who plan to protest against Powell's leadership during the Fed's annual central banking conference next week in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":485,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835026822,"gmtCreate":1629681672666,"gmtModify":1676530095504,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great.","listText":"Great.","text":"Great.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/835026822","repostId":"1192930157","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":552,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835021375,"gmtCreate":1629681618197,"gmtModify":1676530095460,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great.","listText":"Great.","text":"Great.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/835021375","repostId":"1192930157","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":555,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835067316,"gmtCreate":1629681480035,"gmtModify":1676530095371,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great","listText":"Great","text":"Great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/835067316","repostId":"2161745814","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":253,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835069349,"gmtCreate":1629681254981,"gmtModify":1676530095174,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yeah.

The S&P 500 dipped 0.75% to 4,327.16 and the Nasdaq Composite shed 0.8% to 14,427.24.\nThe three averages closed the week lower to each snap 3-week win streaks. The Dow ended the week down 0.52%, while the S&P 500 dipped 0.97% and the Nasdaq Composite fell 1.87% during the same period.\n\nA U.S.consumer sentimentindex from the University of Michigan came in at 80.8 for the first half of July, down from 85.5 last month and worse than estimates from economists, who projected an increase. The report released Friday showed inflation expectations rising, with consumers believing prices will increase 4.8% in the next year, the highest level since August 2008.\nThe Dow gave up its gains early Friday shortly after the University of Michigan report came out 30 minutes into the session. Losses increased as the day went on with major averages closing at the lows of the session.\nThe consumer sentiment weakness “is at face value hard to square with the acceleration in employment growth and the continued resilience of the stock market,” said Andrew Hunter, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics, but the report “suggested that concerns over surging inflation are now outweighing those positive trends.”\nInflation fears\nThe market was held back all week by inflation fears although the S&P 500 and Dow did touch new all-time highs briefly. On Tuesday, theconsumer price indexshowed a 5.4% increase in June from a year ago, the fastest pace in nearly 13 years.\nStocks got off to a good start Friday with the Dow rising more than 100 points to above 35,000 shortly after the open.Data released before the bell showed retail and food service salesrose 0.6% in June, while economists surveyed by Dow Jones had expected a 0.4% decline. If that level held, it would have been the Dow’s first close ever above 35,000.\nDespite the week’s losses, the Dow is still up 13% for the year and sits just 1.15% from an all-time high. The S&P 500 is up 15% on the year and is 1.51% below its record level.\n“The market looks broadly fairly valued to me, with most stocks priced to provide a market rate of return plus or minus a few percent,” Bill Miller, chairman and chief investment officer of Miller Value Partners,said in an investor letter.\n“There are pockets of what look like appreciable over-valuation and pockets of significant undervaluation in the US market, in my opinion. We can find plenty of names to fill our portfolios and so remain fully invested,” the value investor added.\nEnergy correction\nEnergy stocks, the hottest part of the market in 2021, fell into correction territory on Friday as oil prices pulled back from their highs.\nThe Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund fell more than 2% on Friday, the worst of any group, dropping 14% from its high. Still, the sector is up about 28% in 2021, making it the top performer of any of the 11 main industry groups.\nWeaker performance from technology stocks also weighed on the market Friday. Shares of Apple closed 1.4% lower afternotching a record closejust two days prior. Netflix shares fell ahead of the streaming giant’s second-quarter earnings report next week.\nInvestors digested strong earnings results from the first major week of second-quarter reports. Though some of the nation’s largest companies posted healthy earnings and revenues amid the economic recovery, the reaction in the stock market has so far been muted.\nThe Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund ended the week 1.5% lower despite big profit growth numbers posted by the likes of JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America.\n“Good earnings might have become an excuse for some investors to take profit. And with earnings expectations so high in general, it takes a really big beat for a company to impress,” JJ Kinahan, TD Ameritrade chief market strategist, said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":240,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":155071322,"gmtCreate":1625366223466,"gmtModify":1703740812156,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"In the clouds","listText":"In the clouds","text":"In the clouds","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/155071322","repostId":"2148803897","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":313,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":155073307,"gmtCreate":1625366132410,"gmtModify":1703740811013,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Up","listText":"Up","text":"Up","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/155073307","repostId":"1153929434","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":295,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":155047952,"gmtCreate":1625365923876,"gmtModify":1703740807574,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Be afraid","listText":"Be afraid","text":"Be afraid","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/155047952","repostId":"1171891885","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1171891885","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625276733,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1171891885?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-03 09:45","market":"us","language":"en","title":"5 wise money moves before the Fed starts raising interest rates again","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1171891885","media":"MoneyWise","summary":"Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell (pictured) and his colleagues have said the central bank will","content":"<p>Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell (pictured) and his colleagues have said the central bank will keep its benchmark interest rate near zero for the time being, despite gains made by the U.S. economy in recent months.</p>\n<p>But rates won’t stay low forever.

However, now crypto has plunged and reopening stocks are taking on water as well amid a surge in COVID-19 virus variants.</p>\n<p>A recent Federal Reserve decision caused a big swing in interest rates, which has led to investors selling value stocks and buying growth stocks instead. As if that weren't enough, tech got another boost this week as a federal court blocked a key antitrust lawsuit against <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> (ticker:FB). This has seemingly given the green light to other large tech companies to keep expanding their businesses as well. With all that in place, this is shaping up to be a good summer for tech stocks, including these five in particular:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">Facebook</a> (FB)</li>\n <li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOG\">Alphabet</a> (GOOG,GOOGL)</li>\n <li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BLKB\">Blackbaud</a> (BLKB)</li>\n <li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JKHY\">Jack Henry &amp; Associates</a> (JKHY)</li>\n <li><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TXN\">Texas Instruments</a> (TXN)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Facebook (FB)</b></p>\n<p>In late June, a federal court dismissed antitrust charges against Facebook. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) had claimed that Facebook was acting as a monopoly in social media. The FTC, if it had its way, would have tried to force Facebook to divest its other pivotal holdings, including WhatsApp and Instagram, to create a more competitive social media landscape.</p>\n<p>However, the federal court said the FTC failed to prove that Facebook was a monopoly. Facebook stock popped on the news and topped a $1 trillion valuation for the first time.</p>\n<p>Arguably, however, the stock should be up a lot more. Shares are still trading for just 23 times forward earnings while analysts forecast nearly 20% annual revenue growth in 2022 and 2023. Now, with the threat of government intervention gone, Facebook is even more compelling.</p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a> (GOOG,GOOGL)</b></p>\n<p>The court's ruling has broader implications. While Facebook was the target in that case, it's no secret that regulators have been looking at most of the tech titans as potential monopolies, perhaps none more than Alphabet.</p>\n<p>Google's search business has massive market share in online advertising. And the search business is hooked into its operating system and applications such as Gmail to extend its reach. Google's other ventures, such asself-driving carsubsidiary Waymo, could extend Google's domain into next-generation technology as well.</p>\n<p>In announcing a lawsuit against Alphabet last year, Texas' attorney general said that \"if the free market were a baseball game, Google positioned itself as the pitcher, the batter and the umpire.\" Now, however, with Facebook clear of antitrust concerns, it sets a precedent for Google to avoid a major regulatory punishment as well.</p>\n<p>Alphabet stock isn't as cheap as Facebook, but at 26 times forward earnings and approximately 15% projected annual revenue growth, it has earned its spot as <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the best tech stocks to buy now.</p>\n<p><b>Blackbaud (BLKB)</b></p>\n<p>Blackbaud is a software company focused on charitable organization and K-12 schools. Its primary business is in providing software for charities to receive payments and manage their relationships with donors. The company estimates that 25% of charitable giving in 2020 occurred via Blackbaud's platform.</p>\n<p>Charitable giving was disrupted in 2020 due to the pandemic, though some organizations saw an uptick in activity as people donated in the wake of the twin tragedies of theeconomic recessionand health crisis. Still, 2020 wasn't a great year for Blackbaud. More broadly, Blackbaud has been in transition from on-premise software to a subscription cloud offering.</p>\n<p>Such transitions in tech stocks are often met with stock price weakness as investors grapple with less upfront revenue from the subscription model.

However, now crypto has plunged and reopening stocks are taking on water as well amid a surge in COVID-19 virus variants.\nA recent Federal Reserve decision caused a big swing in interest rates, which has led to investors selling value stocks and buying growth stocks instead. As if that weren't enough, tech got another boost this week as a federal court blocked a key antitrust lawsuit against Facebook (ticker:FB). This has seemingly given the green light to other large tech companies to keep expanding their businesses as well. With all that in place, this is shaping up to be a good summer for tech stocks, including these five in particular:\n\nFacebook (FB)\nAlphabet (GOOG,GOOGL)\nBlackbaud (BLKB)\nJack Henry & Associates (JKHY)\nTexas Instruments (TXN)\n\nFacebook (FB)\nIn late June, a federal court dismissed antitrust charges against Facebook. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) had claimed that Facebook was acting as a monopoly in social media. The FTC, if it had its way, would have tried to force Facebook to divest its other pivotal holdings, including WhatsApp and Instagram, to create a more competitive social media landscape.\nHowever, the federal court said the FTC failed to prove that Facebook was a monopoly. Facebook stock popped on the news and topped a $1 trillion valuation for the first time.\nArguably, however, the stock should be up a lot more. Shares are still trading for just 23 times forward earnings while analysts forecast nearly 20% annual revenue growth in 2022 and 2023. Now, with the threat of government intervention gone, Facebook is even more compelling.\nAlphabet (GOOG,GOOGL)\nThe court's ruling has broader implications. While Facebook was the target in that case, it's no secret that regulators have been looking at most of the tech titans as potential monopolies, perhaps none more than Alphabet.\nGoogle's search business has massive market share in online advertising. And the search business is hooked into its operating system and applications such as Gmail to extend its reach. Google's other ventures, such asself-driving carsubsidiary Waymo, could extend Google's domain into next-generation technology as well.\nIn announcing a lawsuit against Alphabet last year, Texas' attorney general said that \"if the free market were a baseball game, Google positioned itself as the pitcher, the batter and the umpire.\" Now, however, with Facebook clear of antitrust concerns, it sets a precedent for Google to avoid a major regulatory punishment as well.\nAlphabet stock isn't as cheap as Facebook, but at 26 times forward earnings and approximately 15% projected annual revenue growth, it has earned its spot as one of the best tech stocks to buy now.\nBlackbaud (BLKB)\nBlackbaud is a software company focused on charitable organization and K-12 schools. Its primary business is in providing software for charities to receive payments and manage their relationships with donors. The company estimates that 25% of charitable giving in 2020 occurred via Blackbaud's platform.\nCharitable giving was disrupted in 2020 due to the pandemic, though some organizations saw an uptick in activity as people donated in the wake of the twin tragedies of theeconomic recessionand health crisis. Still, 2020 wasn't a great year for Blackbaud. More broadly, Blackbaud has been in transition from on-premise software to a subscription cloud offering.\nSuch transitions in tech stocks are often met with stock price weakness as investors grapple with less upfront revenue from the subscription model. That creates opportunity now, however, to buy a leading niche software player at less than 26 times forward earnings with a reopening tailwind as charities can start having in-person events once again.\nJack Henry (JKHY)\nJack Henry is a leading payment processing and informationtechnology company; its main clients are banks and credit unions. The company has an extremely stable business that barely missed a beat even during the financial crisis. Since then, Jack Henry stock has gone up more than 500% thanks to steady growth in the overall demand for payments and financial services.\nThat said, Jack Henry stock has gone flat as investors fret over the health of the banking and financial system in the COVID-19 era. More recently, it has become apparent that credit-quality concerns didn't end up causing much material harm to banks. As the economy is picking up in 2021, the banks are roaring back; financials have been one of the top-performing sectors this year.\nWith that risk now off the table, Jack Henry is primed to follow suit and blast off to new all-time highs. In addition, the company earns a significant chunk of high-margin business from mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity in the banking sector. Withbank stockssoaring, M&A is on the rise, and this should directly boost Jack Henry's earnings.\nTexas Instruments (TXN)\nTexas Instruments is the leader in analogsemiconductor chips. This is a business that focuses on taking real-world parameters such as weather information and converting it into data for digital use. This line of chips is increasingly important as the Internet of Things grows and more devices than ever are online.\nTexas Instruments is making a particularly big push in smart cars, and should sell a large chunk of the chipsets that end up going into autonomous vehicles. In late June, Texas Instruments also announced that it's buying a fabricating unit in Utah from Micron Technology (MU) for $900 million as the company continues to execute on its growth plan.\nTexas Instruments is benefiting from the current semiconductor shortage, which puts it in a good position for better pricing and profit margins going forward. The company has a prodigious growth record, having tripled its earnings per share over the past decade. Now, it trades for just 24 times forward earnings, which is quite reasonable in a bull market for the industry.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":126,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":179205074,"gmtCreate":1626528070398,"gmtModify":1703761476576,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Correction","listText":"Correction","text":"Correction","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/179205074","repostId":"1198202103","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1198202103","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1626481985,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1198202103?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-17 08:33","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow drops nearly 300 points on Friday, snaps 3-week winning streak","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1198202103","media":"CNBC","summary":"U.S. stocks fell on Friday, pushing the Dow Jones Industrials Average into the red for the week, as ","content":"<div>\n<p>U.S. stocks fell on Friday, pushing the Dow Jones Industrials Average into the red for the week, as inflation fears overshadowed strong retail sales numbers and better-than-expected earnings reports.\n...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/15/stock-market-open-to-close-news.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The S&P 500 dipped 0.75% to 4,327.16 and the Nasdaq Composite shed 0.8% to 14,427.24.\nThe three averages closed the week lower to each snap 3-week win streaks. The Dow ended the week down 0.52%, while the S&P 500 dipped 0.97% and the Nasdaq Composite fell 1.87% during the same period.\n\nA U.S.consumer sentimentindex from the University of Michigan came in at 80.8 for the first half of July, down from 85.5 last month and worse than estimates from economists, who projected an increase. The report released Friday showed inflation expectations rising, with consumers believing prices will increase 4.8% in the next year, the highest level since August 2008.\nThe Dow gave up its gains early Friday shortly after the University of Michigan report came out 30 minutes into the session. Losses increased as the day went on with major averages closing at the lows of the session.\nThe consumer sentiment weakness “is at face value hard to square with the acceleration in employment growth and the continued resilience of the stock market,” said Andrew Hunter, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics, but the report “suggested that concerns over surging inflation are now outweighing those positive trends.”\nInflation fears\nThe market was held back all week by inflation fears although the S&P 500 and Dow did touch new all-time highs briefly. On Tuesday, theconsumer price indexshowed a 5.4% increase in June from a year ago, the fastest pace in nearly 13 years.\nStocks got off to a good start Friday with the Dow rising more than 100 points to above 35,000 shortly after the open.Data released before the bell showed retail and food service salesrose 0.6% in June, while economists surveyed by Dow Jones had expected a 0.4% decline. If that level held, it would have been the Dow’s first close ever above 35,000.\nDespite the week’s losses, the Dow is still up 13% for the year and sits just 1.15% from an all-time high. The S&P 500 is up 15% on the year and is 1.51% below its record level.\n“The market looks broadly fairly valued to me, with most stocks priced to provide a market rate of return plus or minus a few percent,” Bill Miller, chairman and chief investment officer of Miller Value Partners,said in an investor letter.\n“There are pockets of what look like appreciable over-valuation and pockets of significant undervaluation in the US market, in my opinion. We can find plenty of names to fill our portfolios and so remain fully invested,” the value investor added.\nEnergy correction\nEnergy stocks, the hottest part of the market in 2021, fell into correction territory on Friday as oil prices pulled back from their highs.\nThe Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund fell more than 2% on Friday, the worst of any group, dropping 14% from its high. Still, the sector is up about 28% in 2021, making it the top performer of any of the 11 main industry groups.\nWeaker performance from technology stocks also weighed on the market Friday. Shares of Apple closed 1.4% lower afternotching a record closejust two days prior. Netflix shares fell ahead of the streaming giant’s second-quarter earnings report next week.\nInvestors digested strong earnings results from the first major week of second-quarter reports. Though some of the nation’s largest companies posted healthy earnings and revenues amid the economic recovery, the reaction in the stock market has so far been muted.\nThe Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund ended the week 1.5% lower despite big profit growth numbers posted by the likes of JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America.\n“Good earnings might have become an excuse for some investors to take profit. And with earnings expectations so high in general, it takes a really big beat for a company to impress,” JJ Kinahan, TD Ameritrade chief market strategist, said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":240,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835069349,"gmtCreate":1629681254981,"gmtModify":1676530095174,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yeah.

The world's leading subscription-based streaming service will announce its first-quarter results after having posted wildly different growth rates in the previous two reports.</p>\n<p>Netflix's late April earnings showed much slower user growth than management had forecast, which executives blamed on temporary challenges like a light content release schedule rather than rising competition from rivals like <b>Disney</b> (NYSE:DIS).</p>\n<p>That explanation raises the bar for Netflix to issue an optimistic forecast for the second half of 2021 in its announcement on July 20. Let's take a look at the key metrics to follow in that report.</p>\n<h2>Meeting low expectations</h2>\n<p>Growth expectations are low following last quarter's surprise slowdown. Netflix is aiming to add just 1 million global subscribers after gaining 4 million last quarter. The same factors that powered that weak Q1 result will affect Q2. Those include a return to more normal TV trends as people turned to other entertainment activities in the wake of the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The big growth question is whether Netflix is feeling heat from competition like Disney's expanding streaming service. Executives said in April that these threats weren't to blame for the slow start to the year, given that engagement remained strong with existing members and growth was sluggish across many markets rather than just in the ones with new competition. Tuesday's report will mark Netflix's opportunity to show that it is still the leader in the niche.</p>\n<h2>Capital questions</h2>\n<p>The improving cash flow picture has been a big factor behind Netflix's stock price surge, and that's likely to be another highlight of this report. Ironically, the worry is that the company can't spend cash quickly enough to keep the content pipeline fully stocked.

The world's leading subscription-based streaming service will announce its first-quarter results after having posted wildly different growth rates in the previous two reports.\nNetflix's late April earnings showed much slower user growth than management had forecast, which executives blamed on temporary challenges like a light content release schedule rather than rising competition from rivals like Disney (NYSE:DIS).\nThat explanation raises the bar for Netflix to issue an optimistic forecast for the second half of 2021 in its announcement on July 20. Let's take a look at the key metrics to follow in that report.\nMeeting low expectations\nGrowth expectations are low following last quarter's surprise slowdown. Netflix is aiming to add just 1 million global subscribers after gaining 4 million last quarter. The same factors that powered that weak Q1 result will affect Q2. Those include a return to more normal TV trends as people turned to other entertainment activities in the wake of the pandemic.\nThe big growth question is whether Netflix is feeling heat from competition like Disney's expanding streaming service. Executives said in April that these threats weren't to blame for the slow start to the year, given that engagement remained strong with existing members and growth was sluggish across many markets rather than just in the ones with new competition. Tuesday's report will mark Netflix's opportunity to show that it is still the leader in the niche.\nCapital questions\nThe improving cash flow picture has been a big factor behind Netflix's stock price surge, and that's likely to be another highlight of this report. Ironically, the worry is that the company can't spend cash quickly enough to keep the content pipeline fully stocked. Most TV and movie production paused early last year and has only now started back up. Management is hoping to spend as much as $17 billion on content this year while marking its first year of positive cash flow.\nNFLX Cash from Operations (TTM) data by YCharts\nLook for a new financial metric this quarter, too: stock buyback spending. Executives started that program in Q2 after the company found plenty of room to invest in the business while paying down its debt.\nThe forecast for the second half\nNetflix has been telling investors that the business will resume its impressive growth rate in the second half of the year, mainly thanks to the flood of new releases that will hit its servers. Tuesday's report is management's opportunity to back up those claims with hard numbers.\nThe company will issue a new subscriber outlook that should reflect its industry leadership position and its unusually high member loyalty. Anything less might be a reason for shareholders to worry. Meanwhile, Netflix's updated profit outlook should continue forecasting at least a 20% operating margin, assuming management is right about its ability to raise prices as user engagement rises.\nThe forecast for the fall and winter months might seem weak compared to the blockbuster growth the service enjoyed in 2019 and 2020. But with global membership rising further above 200 million, it should also reinforce the idea that Netflix is still in the early days of improving on its current base of just 10% of total TV screen time in the U.S. market.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":272,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":837999476,"gmtCreate":1629851149095,"gmtModify":1676530149924,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"More years.","listText":"More years.","text":"More years.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/837999476","repostId":"1167446644","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":400,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":837900732,"gmtCreate":1629850683526,"gmtModify":1676530149584,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow.","listText":"Wow.","text":"Wow.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/837900732","repostId":"2162087564","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2162087564","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1629836173,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2162087564?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-25 04:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall St extends rally, pushing S&P 500 to 50th all-time high close this year","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2162087564","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK, Aug 24 (Reuters) - Wall Street ended higher in a late-summer, light volume rally on Tuesda","content":"<p>NEW YORK, Aug 24 (Reuters) - Wall Street ended higher in a late-summer, light volume rally on Tuesday as the FDA's full approval of a COVID-19 vaccine on Monday and the absence of negative catalysts kept risk appetite alive ahead of the much-anticipated Jackson Hole Symposium.</p>\n<p>All three major U.S. stock indexes advanced higher, with the S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq closing at all-time closing highs.</p>\n<p>The session marked the S&amp;P 500's 50th record high close so far this year.</p>\n<p>Tech and tech-adjacent megacaps were once again doing the heavy lifting, but economically sensitive cyclicals and smallcaps&nbsp;outperformed the broader market.</p>\n<p>\"Investors are looking at the horizon at the big Jackson Hole meeting on the horizon,\" Ryan Detrick, senior market strategist at LPL Financial in Charlotte, North Carolina, referring to the Federal Reserve’s annual economic symposium on Friday. \"But for now the feel-good from yesterday’s vaccine news is still in the air.\"</p>\n<p>The Food and Drug Administration's full approval of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine on Monday fueled optimism over economic recovery which spilled into Tuesday's session.</p>\n<p>Travel and leisure sectors, associated with economic re-engagement, outperformed the broader market.

Traditional IRAs, on the other hand, aren’t taxed when you make contributions, so you’ll end up paying later.\nIf you find you need a little more guidance, working with aprofessional financial adviser, can help point you in the right direction so you can confidently ride out any market volatility.\nWhile everyone else is veering off course or overcorrecting, you’ll be firmly in the driver’s seat with your sunset years planned for.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":112,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":811661652,"gmtCreate":1630317645976,"gmtModify":1676530266903,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wrong bet.","listText":"Wrong bet.","text":"Wrong bet.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/811661652","repostId":"1179773136","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1179773136","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1630315802,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1179773136?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-30 17:30","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"China regulator probes Ping An Insurance's property investments","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1179773136","media":"Reuters","summary":"SHANGHAI, Aug 30 (Reuters) - China’s banking and insurance sector regulator is probing Ping An Insur","content":"<p>SHANGHAI, Aug 30 (Reuters) - China’s banking and insurance sector regulator is probing Ping An Insurance Group Co of China Ltd’s investments in the property market, two people with knowledge of the matter said, after the firm took a big profit hit from a soured bet.</p>\n<p>The China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission (CBIRC) has also ordered the insurer to stop selling alternative investment products, which are typically tied to the property market, said the people, who declined to be identified as the information is not public.</p>\n<p>Ping An in a statement said its real estate exposure was significantly lower than the regulatory cap.

It could also support its expansion into next-gen industries, including connected cars, augmented reality devices, and smart home appliances.</p>\n<p>However, Apple also has tremendous bargaining power in securing favorable contracts with the big three cloud platforms. Just as it splits its component orders and manufacturing contracts between different companies, Apple can shop around for the best cloud hosting deals.</p>\n<p>Apple also charges users fees for additional iCloud storage. So as long as that incoming revenue offsets its cloud hosting payments to Google Cloud, AWS, and Azure, it might be more economical to maintain the status quo instead of building a first-party cloud infrastructure platform.</p>\n<p><i>The Information</i> claims Apple will spend about $300 million on Google's cloud storage services this year -- but that would only equal 0.08% of Apple's estimated revenue this year.</p>\n<h2>Will higher spending from Apple actually help Google?</h2>\n<p>Google Cloud's revenue rose 53% to $8.9 billion in 2019 and grew 46% to $13.1 billion -- or 7% of Alphabet's top line -- in 2020. That robust growth was supported by a growing list of customers, including <b>Target</b>, <b>Home Depot</b>, <b>P&amp;G</b>, <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a></b>, and<b> <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a></b>.</p>\n<p>Many retailers didn't want to feed Amazon's most profitable business unit, while some tech companies didn't want to tether themselves to Microsoft's sprawling software ecosystem. For those enterprise customers, Google Cloud seemed to be an attractive alternative.</p>\n<p>However, Google Cloud controlled just 7% of the global cloud infrastructure market in the first quarter of 2021, according to Canalys. AWS controlled 32% of the market, while Azure ranked second with a 19% share.</p>\n<p>Google Cloud also isn't profitable yet. Its operating loss widened from $4.3 billion in 2018 to $4.6 billion in 2019, then widened again to $5.6 billion in 2020. AWS is consistently profitable, while Microsoft doesn't disclose Azure's exact revenue or operating profits.</p>\n<p>These numbers suggest Apple would likely secure the cheapest cloud hosting rates from Google, which needs to gain more partnerships to keep pace with AWS and Azure. That might be great news for Apple, but bad news for Google Cloud's operating profits.</p>\n<h2>The key takeaways</h2>\n<p><i>The Information</i> claims Apple's increased cloud spending could make it Google Cloud's \"largest\" corporate client, but $300 million only equals 2% of Google's total cloud revenue last year. Apple is still likely hosting a lot of its iCloud services on AWS and Azure, so the report doesn't necessarily mean Google Cloud will become Apple's preferred cloud provider.</p>\n<p>Instead, this report indicates it's smarter for Apple to pit the three cloud platform kings against each other to gain favorable hosting prices than it is to build its own cloud infrastructure. It also suggests that Google Cloud -- which likely has significantly less pricing power than AWS and Azure -- could remain unprofitable for the foreseeable future.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Apple Could Become Google's Biggest Cloud Customer</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nApple Could Become Google's Biggest Cloud Customer\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-02 22:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/07/02/apple-could-become-google-biggest-cloud-customer/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Alphabet's (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Google compete against each other in mobile operating systems, smartphones, smart speakers, streaming media services, digital payments, ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/07/02/apple-could-become-google-biggest-cloud-customer/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GOOGL":"谷歌A","GOOG":"谷歌","AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/07/02/apple-could-become-google-biggest-cloud-customer/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"2148803897","content_text":"Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Alphabet's (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Google compete against each other in mobile operating systems, smartphones, smart speakers, streaming media services, digital payments, and other growing markets.

So as long as that incoming revenue offsets its cloud hosting payments to Google Cloud, AWS, and Azure, it might be more economical to maintain the status quo instead of building a first-party cloud infrastructure platform.\nThe Information claims Apple will spend about $300 million on Google's cloud storage services this year -- but that would only equal 0.08% of Apple's estimated revenue this year.\nWill higher spending from Apple actually help Google?\nGoogle Cloud's revenue rose 53% to $8.9 billion in 2019 and grew 46% to $13.1 billion -- or 7% of Alphabet's top line -- in 2020. That robust growth was supported by a growing list of customers, including Target, Home Depot, P&G, PayPal, and Twitter.\nMany retailers didn't want to feed Amazon's most profitable business unit, while some tech companies didn't want to tether themselves to Microsoft's sprawling software ecosystem. For those enterprise customers, Google Cloud seemed to be an attractive alternative.\nHowever, Google Cloud controlled just 7% of the global cloud infrastructure market in the first quarter of 2021, according to Canalys. AWS controlled 32% of the market, while Azure ranked second with a 19% share.\nGoogle Cloud also isn't profitable yet. Its operating loss widened from $4.3 billion in 2018 to $4.6 billion in 2019, then widened again to $5.6 billion in 2020. AWS is consistently profitable, while Microsoft doesn't disclose Azure's exact revenue or operating profits.\nThese numbers suggest Apple would likely secure the cheapest cloud hosting rates from Google, which needs to gain more partnerships to keep pace with AWS and Azure. That might be great news for Apple, but bad news for Google Cloud's operating profits.\nThe key takeaways\nThe Information claims Apple's increased cloud spending could make it Google Cloud's \"largest\" corporate client, but $300 million only equals 2% of Google's total cloud revenue last year. Apple is still likely hosting a lot of its iCloud services on AWS and Azure, so the report doesn't necessarily mean Google Cloud will become Apple's preferred cloud provider.\nInstead, this report indicates it's smarter for Apple to pit the three cloud platform kings against each other to gain favorable hosting prices than it is to build its own cloud infrastructure. It also suggests that Google Cloud -- which likely has significantly less pricing power than AWS and Azure -- could remain unprofitable for the foreseeable future.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":313,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":155044938,"gmtCreate":1625365849124,"gmtModify":1703740806105,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wait","listText":"Wait","text":"Wait","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/155044938","repostId":"1140994998","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1140994998","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1625286969,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1140994998?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-03 12:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"5 of the Best Tech Stocks to Buy for July","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1140994998","media":"yahoo","summary":"Tech stocks are back on the upswing.\nIt was a rough spring for the technology sector, as traders ins","content":"<p>Tech stocks are back on the upswing.</p>\n<p>It was a rough spring for the technology sector, as traders instead turned their attention to reopening stocks along withcryptocurrenciesand meme plays.

TheS&P 500slid 1.3% to 4,166.45. Both the Dow and S&P 500 hit their session lows in the final minutes of trading and closed around those levels. TheNasdaq Compositeclosed 0.9% lower at 14,030.38. Economic comeback plays led the market losses.\nFor the week, the 30-stock Dow lost 3.5%. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq were down by 1.9% and 0.2%, respectively, week to date.\nSt. Louis Federal Reserve President Jim Bullardtold CNBC's \"Squawk Box\"on Friday it was natural for the Fed to tilt a little \"hawkish\" this week and that the first rate increase from the central bank would likely come in 2022. His comments came after the Fed on Wednesday added two rate hikes to its 2023 forecast and increased its inflation projection for the year, putting pressure on stock prices.\n\"The fear held by some investors is that if the Fed tightens policy sooner than expected to help cool inflationary pressures, this could weigh on future economic growth,\" Truist Advisory Services chief market strategist Keith Lerner said in a note. To be sure, he added it would be premature to give up on the so-called value trade right now.\nPockets of the market most sensitive to the economic rebound led the sell-off this week. The S&P 500 energy sector and industrials dropped 5.2% and 3.8%, respectively, for the week. Financials and materials meanwhile, lost more than 6% each. These groups had been market leaders this year on the back of the economic reopening.\nThe decline in stocks came as the Fed's actions caused a drastic flattening of the so-called Treasury yield curve. This means the yields of shorter-duration Treasurys — like the 2-year note — rose while longer-duration yields like the benchmark 10-year declined. The retreat in long-dated bond yields reflects less optimism toward economic growth, while the jump in short-end yields shows the expectations of the Fed raising rates.\nThis phenomenon hurt bank stocks particularly as their earnings could take a hit when the spread between short-term and long-term rates narrows. Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase shares on Friday lost more than 2% each. Citigroup fell by 1.8%, posting its 12th straight daily decline.\nFed Chairman Jerome Powell said Wednesday that officials have discussed tapering bond buying and would at some point begin slowing the asset purchases.\n\"This week's first whiff of an eventual change in Fed policy was a reminder that emergency monetary conditions and the free-money era will ultimately end,\" strategists at MRB Partners wrote in a note. \"We expect a series of incremental retreats from the Fed's benign inflation outlook in the coming months.\"\nCommodity prices were underpressure this weekas China attempted to cool rising prices and as the U.S. dollar strengthens. Copper, gold and platinum fell once again on Friday.\nFriday also coincided with the quarterly \"quadruple witching\" in which options and futures on indexes and equities expire. This event may have contributed to more volatile trading during the session.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":86,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":813627404,"gmtCreate":1630200234808,"gmtModify":1676530241039,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good prospect.","listText":"Good prospect.","text":"Good prospect.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/813627404","repostId":"1190647001","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":221,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":837992008,"gmtCreate":1629851343204,"gmtModify":1676530150021,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Higher and higher.","listText":"Higher and higher.","text":"Higher and higher.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/837992008","repostId":"1118026600","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":529,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":837907228,"gmtCreate":1629851046764,"gmtModify":1676530149881,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Consistent.","listText":"Consistent.","text":"Consistent.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/837907228","repostId":"2161081224","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":389,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835026822,"gmtCreate":1629681672666,"gmtModify":1676530095504,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great.","listText":"Great.","text":"Great.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/835026822","repostId":"1192930157","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":552,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":835021375,"gmtCreate":1629681618197,"gmtModify":1676530095460,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great.","listText":"Great.","text":"Great.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/835021375","repostId":"1192930157","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":555,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":179423013,"gmtCreate":1626572698832,"gmtModify":1703761830364,"author":{"id":"3580093539764194","authorId":"3580093539764194","name":"CLT224","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580093539764194","authorIdStr":"3580093539764194"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Multiverses are here.","listText":"Multiverses are here.","text":"Multiverses are here.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/179423013","repostId":"2151892500","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2151892500","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1626447300,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2151892500?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-16 22:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Summer Blockbusters Are Back!
