The stock is trading at a relatively attractive valuation now and its long-term growth story remains intact.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":347,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9026300907,"gmtCreate":1653319004409,"gmtModify":1676535259880,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/V\">$Visa(V)$</a>hmm","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/V\">$Visa(V)$</a>hmm","text":"$Visa(V)$hmm","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/668f9b078f653f6c344dbc6dd079ee43","width":"1080","height":"1920"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9026300907","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":603,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9026977642,"gmtCreate":1653318970086,"gmtModify":1676535259872,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$</a>600 let's go!","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$</a>600 let's go!","text":"$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$600 let's go!","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/ccdc6169d3487bcb769f2190341451a5","width":"1080","height":"2058"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9026977642","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":296,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9026974841,"gmtCreate":1653318880083,"gmtModify":1676535259841,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nope","listText":"Nope","text":"Nope","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9026974841","repostId":"2237385143","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2237385143","pubTimestamp":1653304992,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2237385143?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-23 19:23","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is Tesla Stock a Buy?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2237385143","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The stock's valuation is getting closer to reasonable levels, but it may not stay there for long.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Since <b>Tesla</b>&#39;s CEO Elon Musk disclosed his stake in <b>Twitter</b> on April 4, Tesla&#39;s stock has been on a volatile downhill ride, falling 42%.

There Won't Be One","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2236012743","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"At least not in electric vehicles.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Tesla</b> has taken the market by storm in just a few short years. The electric-vehicle (EV) stock  is up nearly 2,000% in the last few years as the company went from a cash-burning niche player to the leader in the biggest transition in automobiles in a century.</p><p>EVs are going mainstream, and Tesla is the reason why, but the stock isn&#39;t just up on hype. The automaker has delivered both strong revenue growth and profitability. In Tesla&#39;s first quarter, revenue jumped 81% to $18.8 billion, and operating income rose more than six times to $3.6 billion. Operating margin ramped up to 19.2%, well ahead of any other major automaker.</p><p>Tesla&#39;s success has sparked a boom in electric-vehicle stocks, including traditional automakers like <b>GM </b>and <b>Ford</b>, which are pivoting to EVs. In fact, there&#39;s no shortage of EV start-ups that have been dubbed the &#34;next Tesla,&#34; including <b>Rivian</b>, <b>Lucid</b>, <b>Nikola</b>, <b>Nio</b>, <b>BYD</b> and Polestar, which is soon to go public through a SPAC merger with <b>Gores Guggenheim</b>.</p><p>While there will almost certainly be other successful electric-vehicle companies, there won&#39;t be another EV stock with eye-popping returns like Tesla. Here&#39;s why.</p><h2>Tesla is the disruptor</h2><p>Tesla went from a market cap of around $50 billion to north of $1 trillion in just about two years because it successfully disrupted a massive industry. The company is nearly 20 years old now and has been public since 2010, but it wasn&#39;t until 2020 that it reached a tipping point where profitability was assured and the market was convinced that electric vehicles were the future of the automobile industry.</p><p>Tesla stock was able to gain 2,000% in a short period of time because the market gave long odds to its success. In fact, in 2018 and 2019, many of the headlines on Tesla focused on its cash burn rate and its chances of going bankrupt. Today, it&#39;s a much different story, and the unlikeliness if its success, at least in the market&#39;s eyes, is as much of a reason for the stock&#39;s monster returns as is the success of the business itself. Though hype played a role in the stock&#39;s jump, at this point the valuation is well-supported by the fundamentals as the stock is trading at a forward P/E of 60 with an expected 60% revenue growth this year.</p><p>But now that Tesla has disrupted the auto industry, it can&#39;t be disrupted again, or at least not in the same way. Rivals like Rivian, Lucid and the other Tesla wannabes don&#39;t have anything to disrupt electric vehicles because they&#39;re already going mainstream. All they have to do is follow the path that Tesla has paved for them and enjoy the sky-high EV valuations that Tesla&#39;s success has created for the industry. While there&#39;s room for improvement in any product, the magic moment of proof-of-concept in EV&#39;s has already happened, thanks to Tesla, and that can&#39;t be repeated.</p><p>There&#39;s a reason why many of the most successful stocks of the 21st century were disruptors. These are stocks like <b>Amazon </b>in e-commerce and cloud computing, <b>Netflix </b>in video entertainment, and <b>Apple </b>in telephony.

The automaker has delivered both strong revenue growth and profitability. In Tesla's first quarter, revenue jumped 81% to $18.8 billion, and operating income rose more than six times to $3.6 billion. Operating margin ramped up to 19.2%, well ahead of any other major automaker.Tesla's success has sparked a boom in electric-vehicle stocks, including traditional automakers like GM and Ford, which are pivoting to EVs. In fact, there's no shortage of EV start-ups that have been dubbed the \"next Tesla,\" including Rivian, Lucid, Nikola, Nio, BYD and Polestar, which is soon to go public through a SPAC merger with Gores Guggenheim.While there will almost certainly be other successful electric-vehicle companies, there won't be another EV stock with eye-popping returns like Tesla. Here's why.Tesla is the disruptorTesla went from a market cap of around $50 billion to north of $1 trillion in just about two years because it successfully disrupted a massive industry. The company is nearly 20 years old now and has been public since 2010, but it wasn't until 2020 that it reached a tipping point where profitability was assured and the market was convinced that electric vehicles were the future of the automobile industry.Tesla stock was able to gain 2,000% in a short period of time because the market gave long odds to its success. In fact, in 2018 and 2019, many of the headlines on Tesla focused on its cash burn rate and its chances of going bankrupt. Today, it's a much different story, and the unlikeliness if its success, at least in the market's eyes, is as much of a reason for the stock's monster returns as is the success of the business itself. Though hype played a role in the stock's jump, at this point the valuation is well-supported by the fundamentals as the stock is trading at a forward P/E of 60 with an expected 60% revenue growth this year.But now that Tesla has disrupted the auto industry, it can't be disrupted again, or at least not in the same way. Rivals like Rivian, Lucid and the other Tesla wannabes don't have anything to disrupt electric vehicles because they're already going mainstream. All they have to do is follow the path that Tesla has paved for them and enjoy the sky-high EV valuations that Tesla's success has created for the industry. While there's room for improvement in any product, the magic moment of proof-of-concept in EV's has already happened, thanks to Tesla, and that can't be repeated.There's a reason why many of the most successful stocks of the 21st century were disruptors. These are stocks like Amazon in e-commerce and cloud computing, Netflix in video entertainment, and Apple in telephony. It's very hard to disrupt an entrenched industry, and the market is generally skeptical of would-be disruptors until they've proven themselves. Like Tesla, Amazon and Netflix were unprofitable for much of their histories, which increased the market's odds against them, helping them deliver huge returns in the long run.Going from a start-up to successfully disrupting a massive industry will usually result in fantastic returns, but the market is also skeptical of disruptors because most of them fail.The Tesla effectAs stocks, one of the most important differences between Tesla and its EV challengers is its valuation. Tesla's success distorted the market for EV stocks, and there's an enormous gap between challengers like Rivian and Lucid, compared to Tesla when it had a similar market cap.For instance, Tesla finished 2018 at a market cap of $57 billion. It had $21 billion in revenue and delivered 245,000 vehicles that year.  Though it lost money for the year, it made a $414 million operating profit in the fourth quarter.By comparison, Rivian's market cap briefly topped $150 billion shortly after its Initial Public Offering (IPO) last November, even though it had only begun selling vehicles two months earlier. Similarly, Nikola's market cap was $30 billion at one point without having sold a vehicle,  and Lucid flirted with a $100 billion market value late last year, even though it only began selling cars last fall.In other words, these stocks were priced for perfection in what now looks like clear signs of market exuberance. Take a look at how these stocks have fared in the last few months.LCID data by YCharts.While Tesla is down over the last six months, tracking with other growth stocks, the rest of the EV sector has come crashing down and could still fall further. Unlike Tesla a few years ago, these EV companies face intense competition in electric vehicles, including against traditional automakers, and many of the start-ups are unproven, since they only recently brought their products to market. By contrast, Tesla has been selling electric cars since 2008.With the level of competition in EVs now, it's unrealistic to expect there to be another trillion-dollar EV company, and it won't be easy for Tesla to maintain its valuation, either.How to find the next TeslaThe next Tesla won't be in EVs. It won't be in an industry that's already been disrupted. Instead, it will be a company that went public for a small market cap and is challenging incumbents in an industry with a large addressable market.Most investors will be skeptical of its success, and it will probably be losing money, despite an impressive growth rate. In other words, it will have a number of the hallmarks of Tesla, but operate in a different industry and sell a different product.Finding the next Tesla won't be easy, but if you're looking in the

place.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":318,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9023777623,"gmtCreate":1652969996962,"gmtModify":1676535198771,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a

David Sandron / Shutterstock.com</p><p>The last week in cryptocurrency is certainly going to be one for the history books. The LUNA crypto saw perhaps the most dramatic collapse ever, with prices plummeting nearly 100%. The coin serves as a bleak reminder of just how quickly projects can turn sour.</p><p>But developers are not giving up yet: The project’s leads are turning to community proposals once again to right the wrongs that led to this point. Moreover, they are providing updates on LFG’s crypto reserves.</p><p>To quickly recap, Terrafell apart last weekafter its stablecoin <b>TerraUSD</b>(<b>UST-USD</b>) lost its $1 peg. The algorithmic stablecoin is supposed to automatically fluctuate in supply as a way to keep prices at $1. Unfortunately, this did not work, and UST prices spiraled. This in turn affects LUNA, since it is an integral part of the UST algorithm and the main token on the Terra network. The de-pegging turned into a rapid plunge for both coins. As it stands now, UST is trading at about 10 cents and LUNA dropped from nearly $80 to less than a half of 1 cent.</p><h2>LUNA Crypto Turnaround Plans Heat Up</h2><p>In the wake of the disaster, users have lots of questions. Most notably, they want to know what happened to the billions of dollars worth of crypto assets in the LFG’s reserve wallet. They also want to know what’s next for the LUNA crypto. Luckily, they are getting at least some answers this week.</p><p>The LFG, an organization that oversees development of the Terra network, posted a Twitter thread this morningdetailing its reserve balance. This reserve, which cropped up in early 2022 after a separate UST de-pegging, is comprised of billions of dollars in assets. It includes a stash of over 80,000 <b>Bitcoin</b>(<b><u>BTC-USD</u></b>). Accumulated for the purpose of deploying in case of emergency, developers seem to have put nearly the entire portfolio into action to little effect.</p><p>According to this report, the LFG deployed over 99% of its Bitcoin, a stash of 80,394. 46,876 BTC went to a “professional market maker.” This market maker then deployed the Bitcoin on behalf of LFG to buy up UST. The LFG sold another 33,206 Bitcoin to buy even more UST later last week,bringing total BTC reserves to just 313.</p><p>Thanks to this data, we can see just how many resources the LFG threw at the LUNA crypto. Interestingly enough, the reserve also holds large amounts of <b>Binance</b>(<b><u>BNB-USD</u></b>) and <b>Avalanche</b>(<b><u>AVAX-USD</u></b>). It did not sell any of these BNB or AVAX holdings.</p><p>Last week, theprice of AVAX fell steeplyas investors anticipated a dump of the $100 million stash the LFG held.</p><h2>What’s Next for LUNA? Developers Prepare to Reimburse Holders.</h2><p>In the wake of the meltdown, it seems that developers are going to put the most affected LUNA crypto holders at the forefront of the rebuild.

The LUNA crypto saw perhaps the most dramatic collapse ever, with prices plummeting nearly 100%. The coin serves as a bleak reminder of just how quickly projects can turn sour.But developers are not giving up yet: The project’s leads are turning to community proposals once again to right the wrongs that led to this point. Moreover, they are providing updates on LFG’s crypto reserves.To quickly recap, Terrafell apart last weekafter its stablecoin TerraUSD(UST-USD) lost its $1 peg. The algorithmic stablecoin is supposed to automatically fluctuate in supply as a way to keep prices at $1. Unfortunately, this did not work, and UST prices spiraled. This in turn affects LUNA, since it is an integral part of the UST algorithm and the main token on the Terra network. The de-pegging turned into a rapid plunge for both coins. As it stands now, UST is trading at about 10 cents and LUNA dropped from nearly $80 to less than a half of 1 cent.LUNA Crypto Turnaround Plans Heat UpIn the wake of the disaster, users have lots of questions. Most notably, they want to know what happened to the billions of dollars worth of crypto assets in the LFG’s reserve wallet. They also want to know what’s next for the LUNA crypto. Luckily, they are getting at least some answers this week.The LFG, an organization that oversees development of the Terra network, posted a Twitter thread this morningdetailing its reserve balance. This reserve, which cropped up in early 2022 after a separate UST de-pegging, is comprised of billions of dollars in assets. It includes a stash of over 80,000 Bitcoin(BTC-USD). Accumulated for the purpose of deploying in case of emergency, developers seem to have put nearly the entire portfolio into action to little effect.According to this report, the LFG deployed over 99% of its Bitcoin, a stash of 80,394. 46,876 BTC went to a “professional market maker.” This market maker then deployed the Bitcoin on behalf of LFG to buy up UST. The LFG sold another 33,206 Bitcoin to buy even more UST later last week,bringing total BTC reserves to just 313.Thanks to this data, we can see just how many resources the LFG threw at the LUNA crypto. Interestingly enough, the reserve also holds large amounts of Binance(BNB-USD) and Avalanche(AVAX-USD). It did not sell any of these BNB or AVAX holdings.Last week, theprice of AVAX fell steeplyas investors anticipated a dump of the $100 million stash the LFG held.What’s Next for LUNA? Developers Prepare to Reimburse Holders.In the wake of the meltdown, it seems that developers are going to put the most affected LUNA crypto holders at the forefront of the rebuild. The LFG is going to compensate small holders after their investments shrank to nearly $0.Alongside its reserves report, Terra developers say they are working on a plan toredistribute the remaining LFG funds to users, from smallest wallets upward. It does not yet have a detailed plan in the works for how this reimbursement will occur.10/ The Foundation is looking to use its remaining assets to compensate remaining users of$UST, smallest holders first.We are still debating through various distribution methods, updates to follow soon.— LFG | Luna Foundation Guard (@LFG_org)May 16, 2022Moreover, founder Do Kwon revealed plans to rebuild Terra through his“Terra Revival Plan.”This plan includes a massive redistribution of tokens as well as a community pool which will fund further Terra development.It will be interesting to watch the network rebuild from this point forward.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":112,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9020775514,"gmtCreate":1652693508138,"gmtModify":1676535143310,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/03067\">$ISHARESHSTECH(03067)$</a>🥴","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/03067\">$ISHARESHSTECH(03067)$</a>🥴","text":"$ISHARESHSTECH(03067)$🥴","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/9b05797105c1a07791fe12b30dc181ba","width":"1080","height":"1920"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9020775514","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":142,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9020775296,"gmtCreate":1652693489715,"gmtModify":1676535143302,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/IQ\">$iQiyi Inc.(IQ)$</a>[Smug]&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/IQ\">$iQiyi Inc.(IQ)$</a>[Smug]&nbsp;","text":"$iQiyi Inc.(IQ)$[Smug]","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/0627eb54591810387485e26a59c79a98","width":"1080","height":"2145"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9020775296","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":61,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9020775913,"gmtCreate":1652693416232,"gmtModify":1676535143318,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hmm","listText":"Hmm","text":"Hmm","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9020775913","repostId":"2235749858","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2235749858","pubTimestamp":1652688018,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2235749858?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-05-16 16:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 High-Yield Dividend Stocks That Can Turn $300,000 Into $1 Million by 2030","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2235749858","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These passive income powerhouses, with yields ranging from 4.4% to 11.9%, can generate some serious wealth for patient investors.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>There are a lot of ways to make money on Wall Street, but few have proved more fruitful over the long run than buying dividend stocks.</p><p>Back in 2013, J.P. Morgan Asset Management unveiled a report examining the performance of dividend stocks to non-payers over a four-decade time frame (1972-2012). During this period, income stocks averaged an annual return of 9.5%, which meant that investors were doubling their money, on average, every 7.6 years. By comparison, the companies that didn&#39;t pay a dividend clawed their way to a meager average annual return of 1.6%.</p><p>Even if we didn&#39;t know the magnitude of difference between the average annual return of dividend stocks and non-dividend payers, these results aren&#39;t surprising. Businesses that pay a regular dividend are often profitable, time-tested, and can provide transparent long-term outlooks. In other words, they should increase in value over time.</p><p>With market volatility picking up big time, dividend stocks might be the perfect way to position your portfolio for success throughout the remainder of the decade. The following three high-yield stocks (i.e., yields 4% and above) all have the tools and intangibles needed to turn a $300,000 initial investment into $1 million, including dividends paid, by 2030.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/WBA\">Walgreens Boots Alliance</a>: 4.41% yield</h2><p>The first high-yield income stock that can help investors generate a 233% total return in eight years is pharmacy chain <b>Walgreens Boots Alliance</b> . Walgreens is currently paying out a 4.41% yield and has raised its base annual payout in each of the past 46 years.</p><p>Generally, healthcare stocks are a relatively safe investment no matter how well or poorly the U.S. economy is performing. Since we have no control over when we get sick or what ailment(s) we develop, there&#39;s a steady demand for prescription drugs, medical devices, and healthcare services.</p><p>However, Walgreens and its pharmacy peers found out the hard way that there are exceptions to the rule. Since pharmacies rely heavily on foot traffic, they were adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Walgreens saw weakness in its front-end retail sales, as well as its clinic revenue. But the good news is that this temporary weakness is allowing investors to buy a highly profitable company on the cheap.</p><p>Walgreens Boots Alliance is in the midst of executing a multipoint turnaround plan that&#39;s geared at boosting its operating margins, lifting organic growth, and promoting repeat visits and engagement. To improve operating margins, the company is trimming the fat, so to speak. When its fiscal 2021 year ended Aug. 31, 2021, Walgreens announced it had reduced its annual operating expenses by north of $2 billion a full year ahead of schedule.</p><p>Yet, while the company is cutting costs, it&#39;s also emphasizing digitization initiatives designed to promote convenience. Even though Walgreens&#39; brick-and-mortar locations will continue to generate the bulk of its revenue, encouraging consumers to purchase online should provide a nice sales boost.</p><p>There&#39;s also Walgreens&#39; partnership with and majority investment in VillageMD. The duo have opened over 100 co-located clinics thus far, with a goal of reaching 1,000 clinics in more than 30 U.S. markets by 2027.  The differentiating factor with these clinics is that they&#39;re physician-staffed. Being able to handle more than just a sniffle should encourage repeat visits and bolster consumer engagement with the Walgreens brand.</p><h2>Antero Midstream: 9.16% yield</h2><p>A second high-yield dividend stock with the ability to turn $300,000 into a cool $1 million by 2030 is energy middleman <b>Antero Midstream</b>. Antero is yielding 9.16% at the time of this writing, which means its passive income alone, when reinvested, can double your money by 2030.</p><p>For some folks, the thought of putting their money to work in oil and gas stocks is enough to make them cringe. Let&#39;s not forget that crude oil demand fell off a cliff 25 months ago during the initial stage of the pandemic. Ultimately, oil futures briefly traded as low as negative $40 a barrel.</p><p>As you can imagine, companies involved in oil and natural gas drilling were clobbered by this historic demand drawdown. However, midstream companies like Antero were in far better shape. Midstream businesses operate the infrastructure that helps move, transport, and sometimes refine, oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids. In Antero Midstream&#39;s case, it provides gathering, compression, processing, and water delivery for parent company <b>Antero Resources</b>. The latter is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the largest producers of natural gas in the United States.</p><p>There are three factors that make Antero such a rock-solid investment over the next eight years. First, there&#39;s the structuring of Antero Midstream&#39;s contracts with its parent company. Midstream providers typically rely on volume-based or fixed-fee contracts to ensure a highly predictable level of operating cash flow each year. This means that even if the price of natural gas whipsaws, Antero Midstream will have clarity on its annual operating cash flow.</p><p>Secondly, Antero Resources is stepping up drilling on Antero Midstream&#39;s acreage. Although the latter did reduce its quarterly distribution by 27% in 2021 (again, still yielding 9.16%), this move was made so additional capital can be allocated for future infrastructure projects. Management expects $400 million in added incremental free cash flow by the midpoint of the decade.</p><p>And third, a big rebound in the price of natural gas, coupled with Antero Resources desire to boost production, has allowed Antero Midstream to improve its balance sheet. After ending 2020 with a leverage ratio of 3.1, the company anticipates this leverage ratio dipping below 1 by the end of the year.</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AGNCO\">AGNC Investment Corp.</a>: 11.86% yield</h2><p>The third and final high-yield income stock that can allow patient investors to turn $300,000 into $1 million by 2030 is mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AGNCM\">AGNC Investment Corp</a>.</b>. AGNC has averaged a double-digit yield in 12 of the past 13 years. Reinvesting these payouts at an 11.86% yield would net more than a 150% return from the initial investment by the end of 2030.</p><p>Although the securities AGNC buys can be a bit complicated, the company&#39;s operating model is pretty easy to understand. Mortgage REITs are typically looking to borrow money at low short-term rates, then use this capital to acquire higher-yielding long-term assets, such as a mortgage-backed securities (MBS). The bigger the difference (known as net interest margin) between the average yield on owned assets minus the average borrowing rate, often the more profitable the mortgage REIT.</p><p>Over the past couple of months, things couldn&#39;t have gone any worse for mortgage REITs. Historically high inflation has encouraged the Fed to get aggressive with interest rates, which means short-term borrowing costs are rising. At the same time, the interest rate yield curve flattened. The yield curve describes the difference between short-and-long-term U.S. Treasury bond yields. When the yield curve flattens, net interest margin and book values for mortgage REITs usually decline.</p><p>However, when things look their bleakest is historically when it&#39;s the best time to buy into the mortgage REIT industry. For instance, even though rising interest rates are weighing on the industry in the short-term, higher rates should also increase the yields on the MBSs that AGNC is purchasing. Over time, this is a recipe for net interest margin expansion.</p><p>Another really important piece of the puzzle is the makeup of AGNC&#39;s investment portfolio. The company ended March with a $68.6 billion investment portfolio, 97.5% of which were agency assets.  An &#34;agency&#34; security is backed by the federal government in the event of default. While investing in these safe securities does lower the yield AGNC receives on the MBSs it buys, it also allows the company to deploy leverage in order to increase its profits.</p><p>Over the next eight years, there&#39;s a good chance AGNC&#39;s book value will increase and its share price will follow. When coupled with its mammoth monthly dividend, there exists a recipe for substantial wealth creation.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 High-Yield Dividend Stocks That Can Turn $300,000 Into $1 Million by 2030</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 High-Yield Dividend Stocks That Can Turn $300,000 Into $1 Million by 2030\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-05-16 16:00 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/05/15/3-high-yield-dividend-stocks-300000-into-1-million/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>There are a lot of ways to make money on Wall Street, but few have proved more fruitful over the long run than buying dividend stocks.Back in 2013, J.P.

In other words, they should increase in value over time.With market volatility picking up big time, dividend stocks might be the perfect way to position your portfolio for success throughout the remainder of the decade. The following three high-yield stocks (i.e., yields 4% and above) all have the tools and intangibles needed to turn a $300,000 initial investment into $1 million, including dividends paid, by 2030.Walgreens Boots Alliance: 4.41% yieldThe first high-yield income stock that can help investors generate a 233% total return in eight years is pharmacy chain Walgreens Boots Alliance . Walgreens is currently paying out a 4.41% yield and has raised its base annual payout in each of the past 46 years.Generally, healthcare stocks are a relatively safe investment no matter how well or poorly the U.S. economy is performing. Since we have no control over when we get sick or what ailment(s) we develop, there's a steady demand for prescription drugs, medical devices, and healthcare services.However, Walgreens and its pharmacy peers found out the hard way that there are exceptions to the rule. Since pharmacies rely heavily on foot traffic, they were adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Walgreens saw weakness in its front-end retail sales, as well as its clinic revenue. But the good news is that this temporary weakness is allowing investors to buy a highly profitable company on the cheap.Walgreens Boots Alliance is in the midst of executing a multipoint turnaround plan that's geared at boosting its operating margins, lifting organic growth, and promoting repeat visits and engagement. To improve operating margins, the company is trimming the fat, so to speak. When its fiscal 2021 year ended Aug. 31, 2021, Walgreens announced it had reduced its annual operating expenses by north of $2 billion a full year ahead of schedule.Yet, while the company is cutting costs, it's also emphasizing digitization initiatives designed to promote convenience. Even though Walgreens' brick-and-mortar locations will continue to generate the bulk of its revenue, encouraging consumers to purchase online should provide a nice sales boost.There's also Walgreens' partnership with and majority investment in VillageMD. The duo have opened over 100 co-located clinics thus far, with a goal of reaching 1,000 clinics in more than 30 U.S. markets by 2027.  The differentiating factor with these clinics is that they're physician-staffed. Being able to handle more than just a sniffle should encourage repeat visits and bolster consumer engagement with the Walgreens brand.Antero Midstream: 9.16% yieldA second high-yield dividend stock with the ability to turn $300,000 into a cool $1 million by 2030 is energy middleman Antero Midstream. Antero is yielding 9.16% at the time of this writing, which means its passive income alone, when reinvested, can double your money by 2030.For some folks, the thought of putting their money to work in oil and gas stocks is enough to make them cringe. Let's not forget that crude oil demand fell off a cliff 25 months ago during the initial stage of the pandemic. Ultimately, oil futures briefly traded as low as negative $40 a barrel.As you can imagine, companies involved in oil and natural gas drilling were clobbered by this historic demand drawdown. However, midstream companies like Antero were in far better shape. Midstream businesses operate the infrastructure that helps move, transport, and sometimes refine, oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids. In Antero Midstream's case, it provides gathering, compression, processing, and water delivery for parent company Antero Resources. The latter is one of the largest producers of natural gas in the United States.There are three factors that make Antero such a rock-solid investment over the next eight years. First, there's the structuring of Antero Midstream's contracts with its parent company. Midstream providers typically rely on volume-based or fixed-fee contracts to ensure a highly predictable level of operating cash flow each year. This means that even if the price of natural gas whipsaws, Antero Midstream will have clarity on its annual operating cash flow.Secondly, Antero Resources is stepping up drilling on Antero Midstream's acreage. Although the latter did reduce its quarterly distribution by 27% in 2021 (again, still yielding 9.16%), this move was made so additional capital can be allocated for future infrastructure projects. Management expects $400 million in added incremental free cash flow by the midpoint of the decade.And third, a big rebound in the price of natural gas, coupled with Antero Resources desire to boost production, has allowed Antero Midstream to improve its balance sheet. After ending 2020 with a leverage ratio of 3.1, the company anticipates this leverage ratio dipping below 1 by the end of the year.AGNC Investment Corp.: 11.86% yieldThe third and final high-yield income stock that can allow patient investors to turn $300,000 into $1 million by 2030 is mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) AGNC Investment Corp.. AGNC has averaged a double-digit yield in 12 of the past 13 years. Reinvesting these payouts at an 11.86% yield would net more than a 150% return from the initial investment by the end of 2030.Although the securities AGNC buys can be a bit complicated, the company's operating model is pretty easy to understand. Mortgage REITs are typically looking to borrow money at low short-term rates, then use this capital to acquire higher-yielding long-term assets, such as a mortgage-backed securities (MBS). The bigger the difference (known as net interest margin) between the average yield on owned assets minus the average borrowing rate, often the more profitable the mortgage REIT.Over the past couple of months, things couldn't have gone any worse for mortgage REITs. Historically high inflation has encouraged the Fed to get aggressive with interest rates, which means short-term borrowing costs are rising. At the same time, the interest rate yield curve flattened. The yield curve describes the difference between short-and-long-term U.S. Treasury bond yields. When the yield curve flattens, net interest margin and book values for mortgage REITs usually decline.However, when things look their bleakest is historically when it's the best time to buy into the mortgage REIT industry. For instance, even though rising interest rates are weighing on the industry in the short-term, higher rates should also increase the yields on the MBSs that AGNC is purchasing. Over time, this is a recipe for net interest margin expansion.Another really important piece of the puzzle is the makeup of AGNC's investment portfolio. The company ended March with a $68.6 billion investment portfolio, 97.5% of which were agency assets.  An \"agency\" security is backed by the federal government in the event of default. While investing in these safe securities does lower the yield AGNC receives on the MBSs it buys, it also allows the company to deploy leverage in order to increase its profits.Over the next eight years, there's a good chance AGNC's book value will increase and its share price will follow. When coupled with its mammoth monthly dividend, there exists a recipe for substantial wealth creation.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":72,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9020131786,"gmtCreate":1652585313845,"gmtModify":1676535125080,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SPY\">$SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$</a>hmm","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SPY\">$SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$</a>hmm","text":"$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$hmm","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/8e022ceb57332ac9a9214cddcdad788e","width":"1080","height":"2145"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9020131786","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":156,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9062423384,"gmtCreate":1652101349148,"gmtModify":1676535028850,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SE\">$SEA LTD(SE)$</a>[OMG]&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SE\">$SEA LTD(SE)$</a>[OMG]&nbsp;","text":"$SEA LTD(SE)$[OMG]","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/acf479f2395e35228c62184cfdcc49ab","width":"1080","height":"1920"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9062423384","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":721,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":813343269,"gmtCreate":1630138281251,"gmtModify":1676530233725,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":12,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/813343269","repostId":"2162733980","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2162733980","pubTimestamp":1630112394,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2162733980?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-28 08:59","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Morgan Stanley Bought $240M Shares Of Grayscale Bitcoin Trust","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2162733980","media":"Benzinga","summary":"What Happened: Investment banking giant Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) is now the second-largest sharehol","content":"<p><b>What Happened: </b>Investment banking giant <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTLW\">Morgan Stanley</a> </b>(NYSE: MS) is now the second-largest shareholder of the <b>Grayscale Bitcoin Trust </b>(OTCMKTS:&nbsp;GBTC) after ARK Investment Management.</p>\n<p>According to recent SEC filings, Morgan Stanley owns over 6.5 million shares of GBTC worth over $240 million at the time of writing.</p>\n<p>Cathie Wood’s ARK Invest funds currently own 9 million shares worth $350 million.</p>\n<p>Morgan Stanley’s GBTC holdings are spread out across a series of funds, of which the Morgan Stanley Insight Fund holds close to 1 million shares.</p>\n<p>The purchases over the past few months also demonstrate how significantly Morgan Stanley has increased its exposure to the leading digital asset.</p>\n<p>At the end of June, the firm reported holding 28,000 shares of GBTC worth around $800,000 at the time.</p>\n<p><b>What Else:</b> The Grayscale Bitcoin Trust itself holds over $31.24 billion of <b>Bitcoin </b>(CRYPTO: BTC) according to a recent update of its assets under management.</p>\n<p>The digital asset management firm had an overall AUM of over $43 billion at the time of writing, of which nearly $10 billion is held in the <b>Grayscale Ethereum Trust </b>(OTCMKTS:&nbsp;ETHE).</p>\n<p>Earlier this year, Grayscale revealed that it was 100% committed to converting its Bitcoin trust, which is currently the largest in the world, into an Exchange Traded Fund (ETF).</p>\n<p><b>Price Action:</b> At press time, GBTC shares was trading $39.15, up 3.52%.

Growth stocks</h2>\n<p>Growth stocks are investments that have the potential for above-average growth. Many tech stocks fall into this category, including companies like <b>Amazon</b>, <b>Shopify</b>,&nbsp;and <b>Square</b>.</p>\n<p>Although growth stocks can be higher risk than their more established counterparts, there's also more room for reward. These stocks are often from innovative companies that are disrupting their industries, which could make them lucrative investments. However, these organizations can also be more volatile than slower-growing businesses.</p>\n<p>If you choose to invest in growth stocks, be sure to look beyond the stock's earnings and focus more on the big picture. Stocks that have experienced explosive growth aren't always good long-term investments, so look at factors like the company's financials and its leadership team to gauge whether this stock will continue growing over time.</p>\n<h2>2. Dividend stocks</h2>\n<p>Dividend stocks are unique in that they can provide a source of passive income in addition to the returns you earn on your investment.</p>\n<p>Some companies will reward shareholders by paying back a portion of their profits each quarter or year, called a dividend. While each dividend payment is small, over time, they can add up substantially and create a source of passive income.</p>\n<p>You may also have the option to reinvest your dividends to buy more shares of that particular company's stock. By consistently reinvesting your dividends, you can increase the number of shares you own without actually paying anything out of pocket. And the more shares you own, the more you'll collect in dividend payments.</p>\n<h2>3. S&amp;P 500 ETFs</h2>\n<p>If you prefer an investment that requires little to no upkeep, <b>S&amp;P 500</b> ETFs are a fantastic option. These funds track the S&amp;P 500 index, which means they include the same stocks as the index itself and aim to mirror its long-term performance.</p>\n<p>With an S&amp;P 500 ETF, you don't need to choose stocks or research individual companies. All you need to do is invest regularly and hold your investments for as long as possible, and your portfolio will gradually grow over time.</p>\n<p>The downside to this type of investment is that it's impossible to beat the market. By definition, S&amp;P 500 ETFs earn average returns. They follow the market, so they can't outperform the market. However, for many investors, average returns are a worthwhile trade-off when you consider that these funds require very little effort to achieve consistent growth over the long run.</p>\n<h2>4. Fractional shares</h2>\n<p>Fractional shares are perfect for the investor who wants to buy individual stocks without breaking the bank.</p>\n<p>When you buy fractional shares, you're investing in a portion of a single full share of stock. Some stocks cost hundreds or thousands of dollars for a full share, but with fractional shares, you can spend as little as $1 for a small slice of the same stock.</p>\n<p>It's still important to do your research when buying fractional shares.

These investments can help you generate long-term wealth.\n\nKey Points\n\nGrowth stocks and dividend stocks can help supercharge your savings and build passive income.\nS&P 500 ETFs are perfect for those looking for a hands-off investment.\nFractional shares can make buying individual stocks far more affordable.\n\nWhen you're investing in the stock market, you have seemingly endless options to choose from. All of those choices can sometimes feel overwhelming, and it can be tough to determine which investments are right for you.\nWhile everyone will have different preferences and investing styles, there are some investments that can make a fantastic addition to anyone's portfolio. If you're ready to send your savings to the moon, these options could be a wise choice.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Growth stocks\nGrowth stocks are investments that have the potential for above-average growth. Many tech stocks fall into this category, including companies like Amazon, Shopify, and Square.\nAlthough growth stocks can be higher risk than their more established counterparts, there's also more room for reward. These stocks are often from innovative companies that are disrupting their industries, which could make them lucrative investments. However, these organizations can also be more volatile than slower-growing businesses.\nIf you choose to invest in growth stocks, be sure to look beyond the stock's earnings and focus more on the big picture. Stocks that have experienced explosive growth aren't always good long-term investments, so look at factors like the company's financials and its leadership team to gauge whether this stock will continue growing over time.\n2. Dividend stocks\nDividend stocks are unique in that they can provide a source of passive income in addition to the returns you earn on your investment.\nSome companies will reward shareholders by paying back a portion of their profits each quarter or year, called a dividend. While each dividend payment is small, over time, they can add up substantially and create a source of passive income.\nYou may also have the option to reinvest your dividends to buy more shares of that particular company's stock. By consistently reinvesting your dividends, you can increase the number of shares you own without actually paying anything out of pocket. And the more shares you own, the more you'll collect in dividend payments.\n3. S&P 500 ETFs\nIf you prefer an investment that requires little to no upkeep, S&P 500 ETFs are a fantastic option. These funds track the S&P 500 index, which means they include the same stocks as the index itself and aim to mirror its long-term performance.\nWith an S&P 500 ETF, you don't need to choose stocks or research individual companies. All you need to do is invest regularly and hold your investments for as long as possible, and your portfolio will gradually grow over time.\nThe downside to this type of investment is that it's impossible to beat the market. By definition, S&P 500 ETFs earn average returns. They follow the market, so they can't outperform the market. However, for many investors, average returns are a worthwhile trade-off when you consider that these funds require very little effort to achieve consistent growth over the long run.\n4. Fractional shares\nFractional shares are perfect for the investor who wants to buy individual stocks without breaking the bank.\nWhen you buy fractional shares, you're investing in a portion of a single full share of stock. Some stocks cost hundreds or thousands of dollars for a full share, but with fractional shares, you can spend as little as $1 for a small slice of the same stock.\nIt's still important to do your research when buying fractional shares. It can be tempting to buy risky stocks when it'll only cost you a dollar to invest, but the same general investing principles still apply, regardless of how much you're spending. If you're not willing to hold a stock for at least a few years, it's probably not a stock you should be buying right now.\nInvesting in the stock market is one of the best ways to increase your net worth and generate wealth over time. With these four types of investments, you'll be well on your way to building an unstoppable portfolio.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":121,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":169731996,"gmtCreate":1623850551315,"gmtModify":1703821346627,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","listText":"Like and comment&nbsp;","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":6,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/169731996","repostId":"1118154026","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1118154026","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":1623850220,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1118154026?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-16 21:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500 is flat near a record with all eyes on Federal Reserve’s update","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1118154026","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stocks were mostly flat on Wednesday ahead of theFederal Reserve’s updateon monetary policy.\nTh","content":"<p>U.S. stocks were mostly flat on Wednesday ahead of theFederal Reserve’s updateon monetary policy.</p> \n<p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average traded 20 points higher.

Coatue also added to its bet on vaccine maker&nbsp;Moderna, while&nbsp;Stephen Mandel’s Lone Pine Capital took a new stake in the biotech company worth more than $900 million. These purchases were a reversal from the first quarter, when many hedge funds cut positions in<i>Work From Home</i>companies like&nbsp;Peloton and&nbsp;Zoom as vaccinations began to ramp up in the U.S. That, in turn, fueled wagers on companies that had been hardest-hit by travel restrictions and remote work.</p>\n<p>Tiger and Coatue also increased their stakes in Zoom in the three months through June, their 13F filings revealed. The two funds, along with D1 Capital Partners, were among those that added to positions in Peloton, while Viking Global Investors made a new bet on the exercise equipment company.</p>\n<p>13F filings also showed that funds including Soros Fund Management and Temasek snapped up shares of fintech companies. Marqeta was a top new buy for Soros, while Temasek disclosed new positions in SoFi Technologies, Flywire and Payoneer Global. Marqeta and SoFi tumbled last week after reporting disappointing second-quarter results. Temasek also snapped up shares in two new BlackRock carbon transition ETFs (LCTU and LCTD), while Soros took a new position in electric-vehicle producer Proterra, as clean energy continues to be a prominent trend among investors.</p>\n<p>Coatue, Viking and&nbsp;Gabe Plotkin’s Melvin Capital Management also added new positions in Beijing-based JD.com Inc. in the quarter, a move that would prove to be rather unfortunate as shares of the giant online vendor have slumped 16% since June 30. Chinese shares have tumbled since June as Beijing banned for-profit tutoring companies and ordered more than two dozen tech firms to carry out internal inspections and address issues such as data security.</p>\n<p>Some, such as Soros were either lucky or good in cutting their exposure to Chinese ADRs in the second quarter, ahead of the furious selloff. Soros Fund Management exited many of its investments in Chinese ADRs including Baidu, Vipshop Holdings, Tencent Music Entertainment Group and IQiyi, positions it snapped up during the collapse of Archegos Capital Management in March and April, as noted previously.</p>\n<p>Other funds also dumped China-based companies with listings in the U.S. D1 Capital sold its 25-million-share stake in New Oriental Education &amp; Technology Group, while Soroban Capital Partners exited its 2.06-million-share stake in Alibaba. Soroban’s largest new positions favored tech, with the top three additions being Facebook, Twitter and Netflix.</p>\n<p>Some other notable 13F findings:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Michael Burry, of “The Big Short” fame, owned puts on&nbsp;Cathie Wood’s ARK Innovation ETF and increased its Tesla puts (more here).</li>\n <li>Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway added to just three positions in the quarter and trimmed its holdings in several companies, including a full exit of controversial Alzheimer’s drug developer Biogen. As firstnoted earlier, Berkshire’s only new position in the quarter, 1.55 million shares of Organon was the result of a spinoff of the women’s health pharmaceutical company from Berkshire holding Merck. Its most significant addition was a 21% increase in its position in grocer Kroger. Besides Biogen, exits included Liberty Global’s Class A shares and Axalta Coating Systems, while Berkshire trimmed positions in Marsh &amp; McLennan, Abbvie, General Motors and Bristol-Myers Squibb.</li>\n <li>Seth Klarman’s long-standing investment in&nbsp;Rupert Murdoch’s media empire finally came to an end during the second quarter. Baupost Group sold its entire Fox Corp. stake, including 7.6 million Class A shares and 5.7 million Class B shares with a combined market value of $446 million at the end of March.</li>\n <li>Carl Icahn, who runs a concentrated portfolio with just 17 reportable investments, sold all of his 9.59 million shares of Tenneco in the quarter. He also has a new undisclosed position in an unnamed stock -- an unusual step that requires a separate filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.</li>\n <li>Dan Loeb's Third Point added SentinelOne Class A to its investments and exited IAA in the second quarter. The fund also added to its holdings in Intel, boosting its stake to 14 million shares from 1 million, while decreasing its stake in Charter Communications Class A. Upstart Holdings was Third Point's biggest holding, representing 9.8% of disclosed assets</li>\n <li>Elliott Investment Management’s largest purchases of the quarter included a 3-million-share buy of Twitter. The increase in shares comes despite Elliott partner Jesse Cohn’s departure from Twitter’s board on June 9. He originally joined the board as part of a partnership Twitter entered with Elliott and Sliver Lake on March 9, 2020.</li>\n <li>Singapore state-owned investment fund Temasek Holdings’s largest new purchase in the quarter was a 4.84-million-share position in Airbnb. Airbnb reported strong second-quarter earnings last week that were offset by tepid guidance, according to analysts. Temasek also disclosed new positions in SoFi Technologies, Flywire and Payoneer Global.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><i>Here are some other moves made by prominent funds tracked by

once, the \"smart money\" was not caught off guard by the resurgent covid pandemic, and as a barrage of 13F filings published today showed, during the second quarter hedge funds loaded up on companies that would benefit from a new wave of the pandemic even before the delta variant began to rapidly spread throughout the U.S.\nAs Bloomberg summarizes, Chase Coleman’s Tiger Global Management and Philippe Laffont’s Coatue Management both increased their stakes in food delivery service DoorDash in the second quarter. Coatue also added to its bet on vaccine maker Moderna, while Stephen Mandel’s Lone Pine Capital took a new stake in the biotech company worth more than $900 million. These purchases were a reversal from the first quarter, when many hedge funds cut positions inWork From Homecompanies like Peloton and Zoom as vaccinations began to ramp up in the U.S. That, in turn, fueled wagers on companies that had been hardest-hit by travel restrictions and remote work.\nTiger and Coatue also increased their stakes in Zoom in the three months through June, their 13F filings revealed. The two funds, along with D1 Capital Partners, were among those that added to positions in Peloton, while Viking Global Investors made a new bet on the exercise equipment company.\n13F filings also showed that funds including Soros Fund Management and Temasek snapped up shares of fintech companies. Marqeta was a top new buy for Soros, while Temasek disclosed new positions in SoFi Technologies, Flywire and Payoneer Global. Marqeta and SoFi tumbled last week after reporting disappointing second-quarter results. Temasek also snapped up shares in two new BlackRock carbon transition ETFs (LCTU and LCTD), while Soros took a new position in electric-vehicle producer Proterra, as clean energy continues to be a prominent trend among investors.\nCoatue, Viking and Gabe Plotkin’s Melvin Capital Management also added new positions in Beijing-based JD.com Inc. in the quarter, a move that would prove to be rather unfortunate as shares of the giant online vendor have slumped 16% since June 30. Chinese shares have tumbled since June as Beijing banned for-profit tutoring companies and ordered more than two dozen tech firms to carry out internal inspections and address issues such as data security.\nSome, such as Soros were either lucky or good in cutting their exposure to Chinese ADRs in the second quarter, ahead of the furious selloff. Soros Fund Management exited many of its investments in Chinese ADRs including Baidu, Vipshop Holdings, Tencent Music Entertainment Group and IQiyi, positions it snapped up during the collapse of Archegos Capital Management in March and April, as noted previously.\nOther funds also dumped China-based companies with listings in the U.S. D1 Capital sold its 25-million-share stake in New Oriental Education & Technology Group, while Soroban Capital Partners exited its 2.06-million-share stake in Alibaba. Soroban’s largest new positions favored tech, with the top three additions being Facebook, Twitter and Netflix.\nSome other notable 13F findings:\n\nMichael Burry, of “The Big Short” fame, owned puts on Cathie Wood’s ARK Innovation ETF and increased its Tesla puts (more here).\nWarren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway added to just three positions in the quarter and trimmed its holdings in several companies, including a full exit of controversial Alzheimer’s drug developer Biogen. As firstnoted earlier, Berkshire’s only new position in the quarter, 1.55 million shares of Organon was the result of a spinoff of the women’s health pharmaceutical company from Berkshire holding Merck. Its most significant addition was a 21% increase in its position in grocer Kroger. Besides Biogen, exits included Liberty Global’s Class A shares and Axalta Coating Systems, while Berkshire trimmed positions in Marsh & McLennan, Abbvie, General Motors and Bristol-Myers Squibb.\nSeth Klarman’s long-standing investment in Rupert Murdoch’s media empire finally came to an end during the second quarter. Baupost Group sold its entire Fox Corp. stake, including 7.6 million Class A shares and 5.7 million Class B shares with a combined market value of $446 million at the end of March.\nCarl Icahn, who runs a concentrated portfolio with just 17 reportable investments, sold all of his 9.59 million shares of Tenneco in the quarter. He also has a new undisclosed position in an unnamed stock -- an unusual step that requires a separate filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.\nDan Loeb's Third Point added SentinelOne Class A to its investments and exited IAA in the second quarter. The fund also added to its holdings in Intel, boosting its stake to 14 million shares from 1 million, while decreasing its stake in Charter Communications Class A. Upstart Holdings was Third Point's biggest holding, representing 9.8% of disclosed assets\nElliott Investment Management’s largest purchases of the quarter included a 3-million-share buy of Twitter. The increase in shares comes despite Elliott partner Jesse Cohn’s departure from Twitter’s board on June 9. He originally joined the board as part of a partnership Twitter entered with Elliott and Sliver Lake on March 9, 2020.\nSingapore state-owned investment fund Temasek Holdings’s largest new purchase in the quarter was a 4.84-million-share position in Airbnb. Airbnb reported strong second-quarter earnings last week that were offset by tepid guidance, according to analysts. Temasek also disclosed new positions in SoFi Technologies, Flywire and Payoneer Global.\n\nHere are some other moves made by prominent funds tracked by Bloomberg:\nAPPALOOSA\n\nTop new buys: UBER,

Furthermore, the market is under-pricing the chance of Disney+ achieving its FY2024 targets, which in my view, is becoming much more achievable with the current roadmap.</li><li>Sports could be an interesting bright spot for Disney as ESPN could leverage on its huge scale to enter sports betting, which is what many of its ESPN consumers want.</li><li>Parks segment will see a strong recovery in FY2022 due to increasing domestic and international guests at its attractions as travel resumes and heads back towards pre-COVID times.</li></ol><p>Overview</p><p>When looking at Disney, it&#39;s important to note the revenue mix of the company. There are two main segments to Disney:</p><ol><li>Disney Media &amp; Entertainment Distribution (DMED) segment which makes up 75% of revenues in 2021. This segment was formed in 2020 as part of Disney&#39;s reorganisation of its media and entertainment business and as it focuses more on the segment. This segment includes streaming services,, linear and syndicated television networks. This includes the direct-to-consumer units like Disney+, Hotstar, ESPN, Hulu</li><li>Disney Parks, Experiences &amp; Products (DPEP) segment which makes up 25% of revenues in 2021. This is Disney&#39;s most iconic travel and leisure business which includes its 6 resort destinations in the United States, Europe and Asia, as well as its cruise line.</li></ol><p>However, the revenue mix in FY2020 and FY2021, in my opinion, is more skewed towards DMED segment due to the huge impact on DPEP segment as the COVID 19 pandemic struck in 2020 and the impacts continued to linger in 2021. Of course, there is also the trend of fast growing DMED segment due to the increasing penetration of Disney&#39;s DTC streaming services like Disney+</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/85405b7865b0cfd86dacf33622d3fdb2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"184\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Revenue mix and growth of Disney (Disney Annual Reports)</span></p><p>When looking at the operating income mix, I think it is quite clear that the DPEP segment has not just seen a decline in revenues, but also margin reduction due to the low volumes in its parks and attractions. That said, at pre-COVID levels, the DPEP segment was one of the more profitable segments at around 27% operating margins. In my opinion, it is a matter of time before Disney&#39;s DPEP segment operating margins will normalise as customers return to its parks.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7cde9d56416980fbbade8ae8f921bbbd\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"233\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Disney Operating Income Mix and Growth (Disney Annual Reports)</span></p><p><b>Disney+ is well positioned for the future</b></p><p>With net adds to Disney+ subs being 11.8 million in 1QFY22, this beat on consensus shows me that the market may perhaps be underpricing the probability of Disney+ achieving its long term 2024 target of achieving 230 million to 260 million subscribers.</p><p>Furthermore, what makes me more optimistic about Disney+ is the strong slate of marquee content coming in 2QF22 and beyond.</p><p>Overall, Disney is almost doubling the amount or original content from its marquee brands in Disney+ in FY2022, with most of these titles coming online in 2HFY22, particularly between July and September. In 2QF22, Pixar will release <i>Turning Red</i> (11 March) and Marvel releases <i>Moon Knight</i> (30 March).</p><p>More highly anticipated releases in 3QF22 and after will include 2 new Star Wars series <i>Andor</i> (To be announced) and <i>Obi-Wan Kenobi</i> (25 March), new Marvel series <i>Ms. Marvel</i> (To be announced) and <i>She-Hulk</i> (To be announced), a live-action <i>Pinocchio</i>(To be announced) starring Tom Hanks, and <i>Hocus Pocus 2</i> (FY2023).</p><p>Management reiterated that they have more than 340 local original titles in various stages of development and production for their DTC platforms over the next few years. Local content offerings are also increasing in Asia, India, Europe, and LatAm in FY2022, with the majority of those titles releasing in F2H22.</p><p>In my opinion, this will be a pivotal moment for Disney+ as 4QFY22 will be the first time in Disney+ history that the company will be releasing original content throughout the quarter from all of Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, and Nat Geo.</p><p>Although there could be some risk of subs deceleration in 2QFY22 due to the back end weighted content in the second half of the year. That said, the focus should really be on 2HFY22 as, in my opinion, there could be meaningfully much higher net adds to subscriber base, partly due to content release schedule in 2HFY22, and also the international launches happening as Disney+ expands its reach globally.</p><p>In the 1QFY22 management call, management emphasised Disney+&#39;s expansion globally. In FY2022, the company plans on bringing Disney+ to more than 50 more countries. This includes countries in Central Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and South Africa.</p><p>In total, management has plans to more than double the number of markets Disney+ is in now from 80 currently to more than 160 markets by FY2023. I would expect that the initial impact of these planned market launches will be most evident in F3Q22. As such, I am of the opinion that we will continue to see quarter over quarter improvements in Disney+ net adds from 8 million net adds in 2QFY22, to 12 million net adds in 3QFY22.</p><p><b>Sports could be a future bright spot</b></p><p>In the November 10 2021 earnings call, Bob Chapek, CEO of Disney, said that the company will expand into sports betting through ESPN. Although this may not sound like anything new, this is the first time ESPN&#39;s parent company, Disney, acknowledged that sports betting will be beneficial to the parent company and will not affect Disney&#39;s brand. This sets a clear signal that the top management in Disney is giving the go ahead to go deeper and bigger into the world of sports betting.</p><p>In fact, sports betting has been something the company has been dipping its toes into. In 2020, ESPN got into an agreement with both Caesars Entertainment and DraftKings to link to their sportsbooks from</p><p>There were talks in August 2021 about ESPN, at that time, was in discussions to potentially explore a brand licensing deal with DraftKings or Caesars Entertainment for $3 billion.</p><p>Bob Chapek mentioned that the company wants to have a greater presence in online sports betting and can leverage on ESPN&#39;s reach and scale to partner with 3rd parties in the sports betting space.</p><p>In my opinion, this could help Disney create brand new revenue streams and bring growth to ESPN, especially as ESPN advertising revenues were flat in the 4th quarter of 2021 when compared to the same quarter a year before. However, its streaming service EPSN+ grew subscribers by 66% over the year and almost 90% of the most watched broadcasts on Disney&#39;s owned TV networks were sports events. Thus, I think that to leverage on this strength that Disney has would make lots of sense not just for ESPN, but for Disney as a whole.</p><p>In addition, the move to sports betting would also attract and retain a younger audience and keep the momentum growing for ESPN. Furthermore, it is noted by Chapel that the consumer wants to have sports betting and to meet the needs of the ESPN customers, Disney needs to move into sports betting or risk missing a great opportunity or even being irrelevant in the future.</p><p><b>Recovery of parks will bring huge revenue and operating income upside</b></p><p>In 1QFY22, the Parks segment saw a material beat in revenues and operating incomes which in my view is a sign that we could be seeing structurally stronger growth rates in revenue as well as operating margins normalisation as international parks and domestic parks fully open and as travel returns to pre-pandemic levels.</p><p>Although there were lower attendance than 2019, Parks revenue and operating income matched pre-pandemic levels due to the higher yield benefits with per cap spending up more than 40% compared to 1QFY19.</p><p>Furthermore, based on the latest results, trends in attendance at Disney&#39;s domestic parks have continued to increase as Walt Disney World and Disneyland 1QFY22 attendance was up double digits compared to that of 4QFY21. This was likely also reflecting the seasonality effects of the holiday season.</p><p>Moving forward, although there is likely to be continued impact from COVID in the form of volatility, Disney&#39;s domestic parks will likely see continued strong demand from domestic guests while international parks will likely see a surge in demand in the latter half of the year. This is due to the increased closures like that of Hong Kong Disneyland currently being temporarily closed.</p><p>For my longer term forecasts, I believe that we could see per caps spending sustain above pre-COVID levels and thus this will drive higher margins for the segment.

Furthermore, the market is under-pricing the chance of Disney+ achieving its FY2024 targets, which in my view, is becoming much more achievable with the current roadmap.Sports could be an interesting bright spot for Disney as ESPN could leverage on its huge scale to enter sports betting, which is what many of its ESPN consumers want.Parks segment will see a strong recovery in FY2022 due to increasing domestic and international guests at its attractions as travel resumes and heads back towards pre-COVID times.OverviewWhen looking at Disney, it's important to note the revenue mix of the company. There are two main segments to Disney:Disney Media & Entertainment Distribution (DMED) segment which makes up 75% of revenues in 2021. This segment was formed in 2020 as part of Disney's reorganisation of its media and entertainment business and as it focuses more on the segment. This segment includes streaming services,, linear and syndicated television networks. This includes the direct-to-consumer units like Disney+, Hotstar, ESPN, HuluDisney Parks, Experiences & Products (DPEP) segment which makes up 25% of revenues in 2021. This is Disney's most iconic travel and leisure business which includes its 6 resort destinations in the United States, Europe and Asia, as well as its cruise line.However, the revenue mix in FY2020 and FY2021, in my opinion, is more skewed towards DMED segment due to the huge impact on DPEP segment as the COVID 19 pandemic struck in 2020 and the impacts continued to linger in 2021. Of course, there is also the trend of fast growing DMED segment due to the increasing penetration of Disney's DTC streaming services like Disney+Revenue mix and growth of Disney (Disney Annual Reports)When looking at the operating income mix, I think it is quite clear that the DPEP segment has not just seen a decline in revenues, but also margin reduction due to the low volumes in its parks and attractions. That said, at pre-COVID levels, the DPEP segment was one of the more profitable segments at around 27% operating margins. In my opinion, it is a matter of time before Disney's DPEP segment operating margins will normalise as customers return to its parks.Disney Operating Income Mix and Growth (Disney Annual Reports)Disney+ is well positioned for the futureWith net adds to Disney+ subs being 11.8 million in 1QFY22, this beat on consensus shows me that the market may perhaps be underpricing the probability of Disney+ achieving its long term 2024 target of achieving 230 million to 260 million subscribers.Furthermore, what makes me more optimistic about Disney+ is the strong slate of marquee content coming in 2QF22 and beyond.Overall, Disney is almost doubling the amount or original content from its marquee brands in Disney+ in FY2022, with most of these titles coming online in 2HFY22, particularly between July and September. In 2QF22, Pixar will release Turning Red (11 March) and Marvel releases Moon Knight (30 March).More highly anticipated releases in 3QF22 and after will include 2 new Star Wars series Andor (To be announced) and Obi-Wan Kenobi (25 March), new Marvel series Ms. Marvel (To be announced) and She-Hulk (To be announced), a live-action Pinocchio(To be announced) starring Tom Hanks, and Hocus Pocus 2 (FY2023).Management reiterated that they have more than 340 local original titles in various stages of development and production for their DTC platforms over the next few years. Local content offerings are also increasing in Asia, India, Europe, and LatAm in FY2022, with the majority of those titles releasing in F2H22.In my opinion, this will be a pivotal moment for Disney+ as 4QFY22 will be the first time in Disney+ history that the company will be releasing original content throughout the quarter from all of Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, and Nat Geo.Although there could be some risk of subs deceleration in 2QFY22 due to the back end weighted content in the second half of the year. That said, the focus should really be on 2HFY22 as, in my opinion, there could be meaningfully much higher net adds to subscriber base, partly due to content release schedule in 2HFY22, and also the international launches happening as Disney+ expands its reach globally.In the 1QFY22 management call, management emphasised Disney+'s expansion globally. In FY2022, the company plans on bringing Disney+ to more than 50 more countries. This includes countries in Central Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and South Africa.In total, management has plans to more than double the number of markets Disney+ is in now from 80 currently to more than 160 markets by FY2023. I would expect that the initial impact of these planned market launches will be most evident in F3Q22. As such, I am of the opinion that we will continue to see quarter over quarter improvements in Disney+ net adds from 8 million net adds in 2QFY22, to 12 million net adds in 3QFY22.Sports could be a future bright spotIn the November 10 2021 earnings call, Bob Chapek, CEO of Disney, said that the company will expand into sports betting through ESPN. Although this may not sound like anything new, this is the first time ESPN's parent company, Disney, acknowledged that sports betting will be beneficial to the parent company and will not affect Disney's brand. This sets a clear signal that the top management in Disney is giving the go ahead to go deeper and bigger into the world of sports betting.In fact, sports betting has been something the company has been dipping its toes into. In 2020, ESPN got into an agreement with both Caesars Entertainment and DraftKings to link to their sportsbooks fromThere were talks in August 2021 about ESPN, at that time, was in discussions to potentially explore a brand licensing deal with DraftKings or Caesars Entertainment for $3 billion.Bob Chapek mentioned that the company wants to have a greater presence in online sports betting and can leverage on ESPN's reach and scale to partner with 3rd parties in the sports betting space.In my opinion, this could help Disney create brand new revenue streams and bring growth to ESPN, especially as ESPN advertising revenues were flat in the 4th quarter of 2021 when compared to the same quarter a year before. However, its streaming service EPSN+ grew subscribers by 66% over the year and almost 90% of the most watched broadcasts on Disney's owned TV networks were sports events. Thus, I think that to leverage on this strength that Disney has would make lots of sense not just for ESPN, but for Disney as a whole.In addition, the move to sports betting would also attract and retain a younger audience and keep the momentum growing for ESPN. Furthermore, it is noted by Chapel that the consumer wants to have sports betting and to meet the needs of the ESPN customers, Disney needs to move into sports betting or risk missing a great opportunity or even being irrelevant in the future.Recovery of parks will bring huge revenue and operating income upsideIn 1QFY22, the Parks segment saw a material beat in revenues and operating incomes which in my view is a sign that we could be seeing structurally stronger growth rates in revenue as well as operating margins normalisation as international parks and domestic parks fully open and as travel returns to pre-pandemic levels.Although there were lower attendance than 2019, Parks revenue and operating income matched pre-pandemic levels due to the higher yield benefits with per cap spending up more than 40% compared to 1QFY19.Furthermore, based on the latest results, trends in attendance at Disney's domestic parks have continued to increase as Walt Disney World and Disneyland 1QFY22 attendance was up double digits compared to that of 4QFY21. This was likely also reflecting the seasonality effects of the holiday season.Moving forward, although there is likely to be continued impact from COVID in the form of volatility, Disney's domestic parks will likely see continued strong demand from domestic guests while international parks will likely see a surge in demand in the latter half of the year. This is due to the increased closures like that of Hong Kong Disneyland currently being temporarily closed.For my longer term forecasts, I believe that we could see per caps spending sustain above pre-COVID levels and thus this will drive higher margins for the segment. Driven by huge volume and customer growth both from domestic and international guests, the recovery in Disney's Parks segment will be significant in FY2022.ValuationBased on above points mentioned, I developed a financial model for Disney to come up with a valuation using sum of the parts (SOTP) valuation of the different segments. Due to the currently unprofitable nature of DTC, this was forecasted using longer term DCF model for the DTC segment.SOTP Valuation of Disney (Author generated model)Based on the SOTP valuation, I derived a target price of $197, and there is a 43% upside potential for Disney based on current price levels.Looking to relative valuation, when comparing Disney with Netflix (NFLX), one of Disney's competitors in the streaming services market, the forward P/E ratios of both companies are somewhat similar at about 31x to 32x 1 year forward P/E.Data by YChartsHowever, as highlighted in earlier sections, Disney's growth is likely to be higher than that of Netflix due to the higher growth from DPEP segment as travel recovers, and also from DMED segment as Disney+ content releases bring in record numbers of net adds and subscribers. As can be seen below, although Disney's revenues plunged in 2020, its starting to show faster growth in 2021 as it continues to recover from the COVID situation.Data by YChartsRisksCompetitionWe are seeing increased competition in the streaming space. Although Disney has a strong franchise of brands in Disney+, competitors like Netflix, Apple TV (AAPL) and Amazon Prime Video (AMZN) could significantly increase content and marketing trend, competing for the same eyeballs for streaming services and thereby restricting Disney's subscriber and margin growth.COVID related risksAs Disney's traditional travel and leisure Parks business is very susceptible to global travel and tourism trends, any increase in COVID related measures in any geographies that Disney's parks are operating in could result in slower than expected recovery.ConclusionAll in all, there is a good risk reward investment opportunity for Disney at the current levels. With Parks segment set to see margin improvement to above pre-COVID levels as well as see traffic return, this will bring about a huge growth in revenues and profits from the profitable parks business. Furthermore, Disney continues to execute well in its streaming business, with 2HFY22 being a very exciting time for Disney+ as it rolls out to more markets and as it releases much more original marquee content that could reach a wide range of audiences.

However, the debt which the new entity will shoulder, along with the portion of the current dividend that it will carry, has not been divulged.</p>\n<p><b>Recent Quarterly Results</b></p>\n<p>IBM&nbsp;reported&nbsp;Q2 results last Monday. With non-GAAP EPS of $2.33, the company beat estimates by $0.04.</p>\n<p>Revenue of $18.7 billion was flat when adjusted for currency and divestitures.</p>\n<p>The negative side of the report had Systems revenue declining by 7%. However, this was largely due to the normal IBM Z mainframe cycle, down 13% year over year.</p>\n<p>The global financing division, which represents a low single digit percentage of overall revenues, was down 9%. Global technology services, which represents roughly a third of overall revenue and will largely be spun off as Kyndryl, had flattish growth.</p>\n<p>The positive side of the report had Cloud &amp; Cognitive Software cloud revenue up 29% and Global Business Services cloud revenue up 35%.

Among the Fortune 50 companies, 47 are IBM clients.</p>\n<p>Half of the world’s wireless connections are handled by the firm.</p>\n<p>IBM's mainframe systems process nearly 90% of the globe’s credit card transactions, and 97% of the world's largest banks rely on IBM products and services. Consequently, twenty-nine billion ATM transactions are processed annually using IBM systems.</p>\n<p>Eight out of 10 global retailers rely on IBM products and services while 80% of the travel industry's reservations run through IBM systems.

In many cases, moving to competitors' offerings would mean risking the transfer of sensitive information, a move many are not willing to take.</p>\n<p>However, with the transition to cloud services and open source software, there is an increased adoption by firms of mix and match IT infrastructures. In turn, this is eroding IBM’s competitive advantage associated with customer switching costs.</p>\n<p><b>The Sources Of Potential Growth</b></p>\n<p>Investors are generally aware of IBM's effort to drive growth through its hybrid cloud offerings. However, when questioned at JPMorgan’s recent investor conference, CFO Jim Kavanaugh&nbsp;provided insight&nbsp;into how hybrid cloud drives revenue in some of IBM’s other divisions.</p>\n<blockquote>\n For every $1 (in business) we land on a hybrid cloud platform, we see $3 to $5 of software drag and $6 to $8 of services drag overall.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Of course, Kavanaugh is using drag to refer to increased revenue in software and services associated with adoption of IBM’s hybrid cloud. If Kavanaugh’s claims are accurate, that means every dollar spent on the company’s hybrid cloud platform translates into $9 to $13 in additional revenue from the firm’s software and services offerings.</p>\n<p>Because hybrid cloud uses a mix of on-premises private cloud and public cloud services, it offers clients a degree of data privacy. This is of particular concern for customers in healthcare and financial services. Consequently, I would posit that IBM might have an advantage in competing with other hybrid cloud providers as it has extensive relationships within those industries.</p>\n<p>I reviewed a variety of prognostications regarding projected growth rates for the hybrid cloud market. The most recent study, which also falls in the middle of other predictions, is by Mordor Intelligence.

When combined with the spinoff of Kyndryl’s slow growing managed infrastructure services business, it is reasonable to believe IBM will witness increased growth.\nIBM has a solid balance sheet, a robust yield, and when viewed using PEG ratios as a basis for valuing the stock, the shares are trading at a bit of a discount.\nAll considered, I rate IBM as a BUY.\nI think the worst case short to mid-term scenario is that the company experiences slow growth while investors collect a rather robust dividend.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":91,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9002922394,"gmtCreate":1641896719098,"gmtModify":1676533659664,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9002922394","repostId":"1163371314","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":99,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":886781190,"gmtCreate":1631626392410,"gmtModify":1676530593117,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/886781190","repostId":"2167569485","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2167569485","pubTimestamp":1631626333,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2167569485?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-14 21:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Ark Drops Out of Top 10 ETF Issuers as ‘Shiny Object’ Lure Fades","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2167569485","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Flagship fund is down 5% this year after a 149% gain in 2020\nNewcomer Dimensional is gaining ground ","content":"<ul>\n <li>Flagship fund is down 5% this year after a 149% gain in 2020</li>\n <li>Newcomer Dimensional is gaining ground on Cathie Wood’s firm</li>\n</ul>\n<p>After vaulting up the ranks of the U.S. exchange-traded fund leaderboard, Ark Investment Management is starting to slip.</p>\n<p>With about $42.4 billion in its ETFs, Cathie Wood’s firm now ranks as the 11th largest issuer by assets, according to Bloomberg Intelligence data.</p>\n<p>The money manager had cracked the top 10 earlier this year, buoyed by a torrent of inflows as investors flocked to Wood’s innovative vision.

Evolution has programmed us to fail. For survival, we’ve learned to run from things that frightens us. And crave more of things that are pleasurable — like sweets or fats to store calories ahead of what might be a long stretch without food. But in the market, acting on the emotions of fear and greed invariably make us do the wrong thing at the wrong time. Sell at the bottom, buy at the top.</p>\n<p>Likewise, we’re programmed to believe being with the crowd brings safety. If you’re a zebra on the Savanna, you are more likely to get picked off by a predator if you go it alone. The problem here is being part of a crowd — and crowd psychology — dumb us down to a purely emotional level. This is why people in crowds do terrible things they would never do on their own. It doesn’t matter how smart you are. When you join a crowd, you lose a lot of IQ points. Base emotions take over.</p>\n<p>To do well in the market, you have to counteract these tendencies. “One of the biggest mistakes individual investors and money managers make is getting emotional,” says Howard. “Let your emotions go.”</p>\n<p><b>Lesson #2: Have a system and stick to it</b></p>\n<p>To exorcise emotion, have a system. “And don’t second guess it,” says Howard. “This keeps you from letting the pandemic or Afghanistan scare you out of the market.” He calls his system the HCM-BuyLine. It is basically a momentum and trend-following system — which often works well in the markets.</p>\n<p>The HCM-BuyLine basically works like this. First, rather than use the S&amp;P 500SPX,-0.03%or the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA,-0.21%,Howard blends several stock indices to create his own index. Then he uses a moving average that tells him whether the market is in an uptrend or downtrend.</p>\n<p>When the moving average drops 3.5%, he sells 35%. If it drops 6.5%, he sells another 35%. He rarely goes to 100% cash.</p>\n<p>“If the BuyLine is positive, we will stay long no matter what,” he says. “We take all the emotion out of the equation by letting the math decide.”</p>\n<p>Right now, it’s bullish. (More on this below.)</p>\n<p>Your system also has to tell you when to get back in.</p>\n<p>“That’s where most people screw up,” he says. “They get out of the market, and they don’t know when to get back in.” The HCM-BuyLine gives a buy signal when his custom index trades above its moving average for six consecutive sessions, and then goes on to trade above the high hit during those six days.</p>\n<p>You don’t need a system that calls exact market tops or bottoms. Instead, the BuyLine keeps Howard out of down markets 85% of the time, and in for 85% of the good times.</p>\n<p>“If we can do that consistently, we have superior returns and a less stressful life,” he says. “Being all in during a bad tape is no fun.”</p>\n<p>His system is slow to get him out of the market, but quick to get him back in. Not even a 10% correction will necessarily move him out. He’s often buying those pullbacks. Getting back in fast makes sense, because recoveries off bottoms tend to happen fast.</p>\n<p>“The HCM-BuyLine takes all the emotion out of the process,” says Howard.</p>\n<p><b>Lesson #3: Don’t fight the tape</b></p>\n<p>This concept is one of the core pieces of wisdom from Marty Zweig’s classic book, “Winning on Wall Street.”</p>\n<p>“You have to stay on the right side of market,” agrees Howard. “If you try to trade long in a bad market, it is painful.”</p>\n<p>In other words, don’t try to be a hero.</p>\n<p>“Sometimes, not losing money is where you want to be,” he says.</p>\n<p>Likewise, don’t turn cautious just because the market hits new highs — like now. You should love new highs, because it is a sign of market strength that may likely endure.</p>\n<p><b>Lesson #4: Keep it simple</b></p>\n<p>As you’ll see below, Howard doesn’t use esoteric instruments such as derivatives, swaps or index options. He doesn’t even trade foreign stocks or currencies. This is refreshing for individual investors, because we have a harder time accessing those tools.</p>\n<p>“You don’t have to trade crazy stuff,” he says. “You can trade plain-vanilla ETFs and beat everybody out there.”</p>\n<p><b>Lesson #5: How to trade the current market</b></p>\n<p>First, be long.</p>\n<p>“The HCM-BuyLine is very positive. We are 100% in,” says Howard. “The market is broadening out. It is getting pretty exciting. We do not see it turn around any time soon. We are buying pullbacks.”</p>\n<p>One bullish signal is all the cash on the sidelines. “If there is any relief in Covid, we may see a big rally. We may end up with a great fall [season].”</p>\n<p>Howard uses momentum indicators to select stocks and ETFs, too. For sectors he favors the following.</p>\n<p>He likes health care, tradable through the iShares US HealthcareIYH,-0.04%and ProShares Ultra Health CareRXL,+0.12%ETFs.

The fund then came roaring back to net the very positive five-year outperformance cited above.

This week, I'm excited to welcome Lou Whiteman back on the show to take a look at Palantir's recent earnings. Lou, how's it going?</p>\n<p><b>Lou Whiteman:</b> Going well, good to see you, Nick.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Great to have you here back on the show. We've talked about Palantir here in the past, I think this is the first show we're doing focusing specifically on this company. I had John a couple of weeks ago, we talked about the entertainment that we can get from <b>Tesla </b>earnings calls. There are some back-end relationships between Palantir, whose chairman is Peter Thiel, and then the Tesla CEO and former chairman, Elon Musk. What did you make of this earnings call, man? Palantir is a unique company.</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> They are. You know what? They own that, which I respect. It was a fun earnings call they did for people who didn't listen in. They have people submit questions, there's no live back-and-forth with analysts. It's brilliant because it really gives them a chance to communicate as they wish, and maybe not what they wish, but it makes for a really fun call. Issues or questions as simple as what's Palantir, what does Palantir do, which was <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> that you pulled out that I thought was great.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Yeah. They take this out of the Tesla playbook, where they take submissions from investors online. At least for the first part of the call, I would say most of the call, the Q&amp;A portion is spent answering those questions, having the IRR executives read that out.</p>\n<p>One of the things that we struggled with here, Lou, is trying to figure out, what exactly does Palantir do? We had a whole episode where we talked about these highly classified businesses. Sometimes, everything is behind the wall. It's hard to figure out what's going on and what exactly the nature of these programs are.</p>\n<p>It seems like some analysts are having the same problem, because there was a question we got on the earnings call. It says, \"Are there plans for the company to increase its PR presence to increase awareness of its business model, which may lead to increased utilization of Palantir's various software platforms?\"</p>\n<p>We got an answer from the chief operating officer, Shyam Sankar. I don't think it was super satisfying for those who were trying to figure out what the business is all about. They say: \"I can't really tell you why some people don't know or understand what we do. I can tell you about the people who do know though. It's the special operator who chased down a car to give him a hug. It's the civil servants who work tirelessly to deliver vaccines in the U.S. and the U.K. It's the French government as they raced to prevent bombs from exploding on the eve of Macron's election. It's the German police who caught the suicide bombers in time, the supply chain operators of the World Food Program, tackling COVID, escalating impact of global property and hunger, the factory workers on the assembly lines from Toulouse to Detroit.\" That's an answer. It's not really an exact answer. What is your understanding of what Palantir does, and where they fit in other than being like sneaky spy software people?</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> The big picture is this is a data analytics company. They bring order to data, and they do it with AI. They do it with a human intelligence. Humans are better at sorting through data than machines, but they do it with the speed and just the total volume of a machine. It's that human-level intelligence at the volume of machines that allows them to do amazing things. Most notably, they've helped the Pentagon find Osama Bin Laden, helped figure out that Bernie Madoff wasn't on the up and up. It is a special sauce. It's AI that helps sort through mountains and mountains of data and find things that both a human on his or her own or a lesser AI is going to miss. That in a nutshell is what they do. But it's complicated.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> It's complicated. You describe their culture as an artist colony. Very pretty eccentric you would say. Maybe it fits the Peter Thiel ethos. He has his book, <i>Zero to One</i>, I think it's one of the best investing books out there. But it talks about how you have to be different to achieve something different. They are certainly being very different from other folks, certainly, in the government services industry, maybe other companies, in general. When we look at the numbers from the earnings report, what the company is giving us as far as performance of the business. What stood out to you from earnings?</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> This is starting on a very high level. It was a very good quarter this recent quarter. We should note, they only went public late last year. It's an 18-year-old company, but it's relatively new to the public markets. Anyway, they earned $0.04 per share on revenue of $375 million. That easily topped estimates on revenue, $353 million was the estimate. It was a penny ahead on analyst expectations. Revenue was up an eye-popping 49% year-over-year. Adjusted operating margin topped 30% for the third straight quarter.&nbsp; This is a good solid business. We'll talk about that later. But I think the heart of the question of what Palantir does, why don't analysts get it, is there is a market disconnect right now going on with the strength of the business versus the strength of the stock. It's hard to get by. But look, they are forecasting great things. They had a 3-to-1 book to bill ratio, which means they're bringing in almost three times the business they're billing out. Fantastic. They had 20 customers in the quarter. Many of those, to be honest, didn't view this a bit of an asterisk there, but that is growth, and commercial side growth as we'll talk about soon, is key to the bull case here. Most impressive, they don't really give guidance, but they said with confidence, 30% annual revenue growth for each of the next five years. We're talking about growing the business from just over $1 billion, analyzing run-rate to a $3.5-4 billion company in a matter of five years, 2026. As an investor, you got to like that. They are definitely going in the right direction.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Big question for me, and you may or may not have deep thoughts on this Lou. But just why now? You mentioned this is a company that's been around for a number of years. They were involved in the Osama Bin Laden capture a number of years ago. This company has been around for a while. Now, we're seeing this incredible growth, forecasting lots of growth into the future. What is your perception of the quarter they've turned here, or why now?</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> This is perception because as we discussed from the top, this isn't a company that really likes to spell out all of its thoughts out to the markets. They only went public last year. That coincided with a real push on the commercial side. They've mostly been a government contractor. I think what we're seeing here is part of their evolution into, hopefully, a more diversified contractor serving both government and commercial customers, to justify a strong public listing. They've been around for 18 years and they are only now a $1 billion company, mostly in defense. That's going to trade at a different valuation than a company that can really attack the commercial market. We can get into that in a second as far as where they are in that. But I think that this, the PR push, the going public, the commercial, this is all about turning from a niche government contractor to a more-mainstream data analytics company.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> It's that leap, maybe if you think about it. There's a couple of examples of autonomy. We had the DARPA program that was about autonomous vehicles, and now you have lots of companies trying to launch that in a commercial sense. If you look at iRobot, that makes the robot vacuums, the early history of that company was they were a robotic minesweeper. Obviously, you don't want people to be going around, walking through the minefield tracking for mines. That was the early development of that technology. Maybe this is another example of technology developed in the test tube of the military that now you can open up the floodgates and unleash it out onto the commercial world. One thing you mentioned about, Lou, some of the growth in revenue we're seeing. I think they said there's only 1% of their growth and revenue. But a huge chunk of their total contract volume is coming from these smaller companies, they call them \"Day Zero\" companies, that they are investing in. What can you tell us about what they're doing here? Obviously, there's some risk.</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> They are investing partially through the SPACs. They are investing in companies that they see promise in, and they are also finding customers that way. You can't do it forever, but it's hard to knock the strategy. Let's talk about it a little because I think this gets back to that initial, what is Palantir, and the question was, why don't analysts get it? Which is an interesting thing to say. This is a company, as we said, most of their history has been on the defense side. Right now, it's almost a $50 billion market cap on a $1 billion run rate of sales, so a quite rich price-to-sales on today. Even if you go forward with that 30% growth over five years, we're still talking about 12 to 15 times projected 2026 sales. Honestly, defense contractors mostly are less than two times sales. It's just out of this world for defense. This is part of this process where they need to become a commercial company. While they're making progress here, and like the Day Zero companies, they are being innovative in how they're going to do it. There was nothing in this quarter to suggest that the profile of this company is going to change anytime soon. Government with 61% of total revenue in the quarter, and it is growing faster. Government grew by about 66%, commercial grew about 28%.</p>\n<p>By comparison, it's hard to get a perfect comparison, but <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNOW\">Snowflake</a></b>, which is a commercial company, similar size revenue, grew revenue by 110%. It is not growing as fast as Snowflake on the commercial side. If the government is a bigger part of the pie, and it's the side that's growing faster, it is really hard quickly to transition yourself into a commercial vendor. I think a lot of the angst in that question was, why don't analysts get the commercial? I think that's the better answer to that question right now, is that commercial is still the area of promise, but not the area that is the bulk of the business. These Day Zero companies initiatives like that, they've partnered with <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IBM\">IBM</a> </b>to try and sell the software, which will cut margins which should hopefully help with growth. These are ways where they are trying to transform themselves into a more commercial minded company that arguably could justify a higher valuation long term.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> They talked about hiring a significant number of sales staff. Obviously, going out to sell to a different, more varied group of customers. I will say, for any company, we're having a venture capital arm of our business that's spinning up customers for us. I will say though, it makes you feel a little bit better when you have Peter Thiel, one of the best venture capitalists ever, as the chairman of the board. If there's anybody that's going to pick winners and have a pretty high hit rate there, I think he's one of them. We'll have to see.</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> They have the cash. I don't think there is a downside, but I also don't think that&nbsp; this solves there. It looked really good on the customer acquisition numbers. It's not going to drive revenue and really transform the business, just the nature of these customers.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Yeah. Really questions about how quickly they can continue to grow this commercial side, how these bets on smaller companies work out. You mentioned the cash pile, Lou, and that's the other thing that's grabbing headlines here is how they're spending that cash pile. The company purchased $50 million in 100-ounce gold bars, they said in their Aug. 12 earnings statement. They said the purchase will be kept in a secure third-party facility located in the Northeastern United States and the company will be able to take possession of the gold bars at any time with reasonable notice. They've talked about this being insurance against a black swan event. Palantir is the eye in the sky that's helping support the operations of people like the CIA and the NSA. What do you make of this group in particular, buying $50 million in gold bars?</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> That is certainly the headline, this so-called Skynet, the company that has the AI capable of predicting the future, is buying gold. You know, that's something. I don't know what to make of it. I think it's a great way to get publicity. I can't imagine a lot of at least the U.S. government or large corporate customers saying we want to pay in gold. It feels more like a publicity thing, maybe a foreign government sales, it may come in handy. But yeah, it definitely catches the eye, maybe they know something we don't. But I have a hard time changing my view of the business based on the fact that they bought gold. It's just a really fun thing to watch to see exactly what they have planned.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Yeah. For me, it's a couple of things. For me, partially, it's a $50 million marketing expense line item, you can think of it that way because me and you are talking about it, CNBC is talking about it, they're writing it up on Bloomberg, all these other places. I don't know if you could get that level of coverage across the world in the financial media with just a $50 million ad buy. You certainly have an asset left on the back end here with the gold purchase that you wouldn't have had if you just went in and spent it on ads, there's that. Do you think it's realistic, because they talked about customers having the ability to pay with cryptocurrency but nobody has paid, they are encouraging customers to pay with gold. But the people who had realistically wanted to have untraceable payments are the people that Palantir had said they will not service. There's potentially hostile groups and groups that would want to cover up their operations. I don't think that the U.S. Government wants to cover up that they are a customer of Palantir.</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> No. I mean, hopefully not. There was a high-profile customer we won't name who was a customer, but it turned out that they we're using the software to spy on employees and not make better lending decisions. But that was a few years ago in the past. Yeah, no, I mean, it's funny not to be too tongue-in-cheek, but it's hard to imagine a big customer actually piling gold into a truck and driving at the Palantir headquarters, so probably what you would have is some paper that represents an amount of gold, which used to be the U.S. dollar, so maybe they're just trying to get us back to the gold standard. But I tend to think you're right, that's $50 million of publicity that they also have an asset in the bank on. We'll see what else they do with that. I'd be surprised if it's much.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Yeah, I choose to take the publicity angle on this because if you take that they're predicting World War III angle here, I don't want to predict that future, so I'm going to choose the publicity angle. Lou, you mentioned earlier, when you look at Palantir, they're tough to put a thumb on, and in some perspectives, you want to going to put it in the bucket of government services contractors, and others you want to put it in this bucket with your <b>Amazon</b>s, and your Snowflakes, and your <b>Microsoft </b>as this transformational Cloud software business. About a year ago, we did a defense stocks basket, which was some of these traditional companies. When you look at how Palantir has traded compared to some of those other companies, what are your thoughts on where Palantir fits in the bucket and there's different strategies for investors to get into these trends?</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> Not to dump the question, but this is really hard because I think business is fantastic. There is, in my mind, though, a disconnect between the business and the stock. It's hard to know how long that goes on or how quickly they grow out of it. One thing I do believe is that if they cannot get the commercial up and running the way they hope to, the valuation is not sustainable over time. Governments have cost-plus contracts. There is only so much business. If you talked to Pentagon people about Palantir, they both loved the company, they love the software when it's needed. But that when it is needed is important because it is expensive, it is cumbersome, it is a huge install, and frankly, it's best used not universally but when it's needed. I do think there are limits on the government's side, and I think the commercial side, they couldn't run into some of those same things.</p>\n<p>Last December, I actually put together a separate basket that was instead of Palantir, to buy these three defense IT firms. I was thinking five years, for the record, so far, I have not been right. My basket has losing to Palantir for less than 1% on average. If you throw in dividends, total return, I think I'm up, but whatever, we're very early in a five-year process. But the thing that struck me when I was looking at that this morning is just that Palantir, for all of its volatility, has basically gone nowhere in a long time. Now, it has been so long, it's been at various points in time this year, it's been up 60% for the year. It was down as much as 25%, wild swings. But for the year, it is actually losing to the<b> S&amp;P 500</b> by almost 9 percentage points. Basically, if you take out all that noise, it's a flat line. I wonder, this company, these products, they're too good for it just to fall off a cliff. It's hard to imagine the catalyst where it just crashes, it's done. But it's also hard to see that catalyst to get a jump higher. I think one or two things are going to happen. Either they're going to surprise me with the way they can grow the commercial, and I think honestly, probably surprise themselves because I think it's going to be much more than that 30% if they really see the stock take off, or this could just be a flat stock for a while while it slowly grows into its valuation.</p>\n<p>Looking at what it's done last year, I think the good news is that's not the worst downside. Really, it's hard to imagine this company just ceasing to exist. But I do question whether it can be a market-leading investment given its current valuation and the growth that's baked in, and the challenges that might find growth quickly. It really surprised me, its performance versus the S&amp;P 500 for the year. I wonder if that isn't telling of what we have, maybe not for the long, long term, but for the next few years, and the foreseeable future.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Right. Certainly, some execution to live up to that valuation. Lou, you mentioned that basket. Just for completion's sake, what were the companies that were on that list of the three IT services firms?</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> It was <b>Booz Allen Hamilton</b>, BAH, which to be honest, has been the real clunker for me, and then I believe it was <b>SAIC</b>, and <b>Leidos Holdings</b>, LDOS.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Excellent. We've talked about those in the past so I'll try to drop some links to episodes where we've talked about some of those companies. Any last thoughts on Palantir before we move on our next topic?</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> Again, I think just back to that original thing, why don't analysts understand? I think it's an open debate whether or not analysts understand it better than retail or if retail understands it better than analysts, because a lot of defense people like me are looking at it through that spectrum. We could be wrong and we could be missing it, but I think as an individual investor, you should at least be mindful that that could be what they are, too. As I said, the stock could readjust overtime.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Is it <i>Rule Breaker</i> or is it a faker, we're going to find out sometime in these next quarters and years. The big thing we're going to be watching is how quickly they can grow that commercial business and sustain that growth overtime. We've talked about defense a lot today, Lou, in the context of Palantir. Maybe zooming out a little bit, the headline story everywhere is what's going on in Afghanistan, a really tragic scene. When you put what's going on there in the context of what it means for defense more broadly, do you have any high-level thoughts or context to give us?</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> Yeah, as you say, it's so hard to watch, it's hard to really make it into a stock story, but these are stocks and they move on, I do think for big defense, it is mostly a distraction right now, I mean, it could be a distraction that causes some disruption. I'm pretty sure we're going to see hearings, I think it's going to distract Congress so we could see delays on the budget, that's less clarity than we hope. There could be some resignations, there could be some shuffling in the budget because of it, so I don't think the big picture really alters on this, but I do think it could cause choppiness up ahead. Part of leaving Afghanistan as part of a broader trend toward a shift and focus toward what causes great power competition, that's mostly China and Russia. In the worst-case scenario, I guess with Afghanistan, we're kind of sucked back in, and maybe that means more near-term spending on munitions versus great power R&amp;D, which the companies would definitely prefer. The R&amp;D, it's higher margin, more turnaround, but it's hard to imagine a world where we stopped focusing on Russia and China, and so I do think the R&amp;D would be sustained. If anything, there was about $9 billion in the fiscal 2020 Pentagon budget to support the Afghan Army. That's presumably off the table, that does give some wiggle. That's not enough really to shift views on any one stock, but there is some wiggle room now. I think, long term, the thesis prior to this when all these companies remains the same, but it's certainly doesn't help clarity as far as when things get done and what the budget in the next year or two looks like.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Yeah, it's an interesting history that rhymes a little bit, there was the Vietnam evacuation that was centered around Russia and some of the things going on there, and now we have this great power focus. Whenever I hear great power, I just translate that to Cold War in my brain, that's essentially the 21st century version of that, that's where we're headed.</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> I think we are and unfortunately, it's probably bullish for defense stocks over time because that does involve alot of again, this&nbsp; R&amp;D spending on advanced stuff. It's a very different profile than fighting insurgence, the low level war, but until the world gets safer.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Hopefully, that can happen, Lou, any last thoughts here on the defense universe before we send us all home?</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> It's been a weird couple of years. We had the election last year and concerns about that, that I think we're overblown and now fresh chaos. This remains for me a sector that if you are very long-term and especially if you want dividends because you have a lot of approaching 3% dividend yields. I think it's still a safe place to go, but it is a long-term investment and you do, and there's tons of noise you have to block out, bullish and bearish.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> Lou, always love having you on the show, can't wait to have you back on again soon.</p>\n<p><b>Whiteman:</b> Pleasure to be here, Nick.</p>\n<p><b>Sciple:</b> As always, people on the program may own companies discussed on the show and The Motley Fool may have formal recommendations for or against the stocks discussed, so don't buy or sell anything based on what you hear.

A full transcript follows the video.\nThis video was recorded on Aug. 19, 2021.\nNick Sciple: Welcome to Industry Focus, I am Nick Sciple. This week, I'm excited to welcome Lou Whiteman back on the show to take a look at Palantir's recent earnings. Lou, how's it going?\nLou Whiteman: Going well, good to see you, Nick.\nSciple: Great to have you here back on the show. We've talked about Palantir here in the past, I think this is the first show we're doing focusing specifically on this company. I had John a couple of weeks ago, we talked about the entertainment that we can get from Tesla earnings calls. There are some back-end relationships between Palantir, whose chairman is Peter Thiel, and then the Tesla CEO and former chairman, Elon Musk. What did you make of this earnings call, man? Palantir is a unique company.\nWhiteman: They are. You know what? They own that, which I respect. It was a fun earnings call they did for people who didn't listen in. They have people submit questions, there's no live back-and-forth with analysts. It's brilliant because it really gives them a chance to communicate as they wish, and maybe not what they wish, but it makes for a really fun call. Issues or questions as simple as what's Palantir, what does Palantir do, which was one that you pulled out that I thought was great.\nSciple: Yeah. They take this out of the Tesla playbook, where they take submissions from investors online. At least for the first part of the call, I would say most of the call, the Q&A portion is spent answering those questions, having the IRR executives read that out.\nOne of the things that we struggled with here, Lou, is trying to figure out, what exactly does Palantir do? We had a whole episode where we talked about these highly classified businesses. Sometimes, everything is behind the wall. It's hard to figure out what's going on and what exactly the nature of these programs are.\nIt seems like some analysts are having the same problem, because there was a question we got on the earnings call. It says, \"Are there plans for the company to increase its PR presence to increase awareness of its business model, which may lead to increased utilization of Palantir's various software platforms?\"\nWe got an answer from the chief operating officer, Shyam Sankar. I don't think it was super satisfying for those who were trying to figure out what the business is all about. They say: \"I can't really tell you why some people don't know or understand what we do. I can tell you about the people who do know though. It's the special operator who chased down a car to give him a hug. It's the civil servants who work tirelessly to deliver vaccines in the U.S. and the U.K. It's the French government as they raced to prevent bombs from exploding on the eve of Macron's election. It's the German police who caught the suicide bombers in time, the supply chain operators of the World Food Program, tackling COVID, escalating impact of global property and hunger, the factory workers on the assembly lines from Toulouse to Detroit.\" That's an answer. It's not really an exact answer. What is your understanding of what Palantir does, and where they fit in other than being like sneaky spy software people?\nWhiteman: The big picture is this is a data analytics company. They bring order to data, and they do it with AI. They do it with a human intelligence. Humans are better at sorting through data than machines, but they do it with the speed and just the total volume of a machine. It's that human-level intelligence at the volume of machines that allows them to do amazing things. Most notably, they've helped the Pentagon find Osama Bin Laden, helped figure out that Bernie Madoff wasn't on the up and up. It is a special sauce. It's AI that helps sort through mountains and mountains of data and find things that both a human on his or her own or a lesser AI is going to miss. That in a nutshell is what they do. But it's complicated.\nSciple: It's complicated. You describe their culture as an artist colony. Very pretty eccentric you would say. Maybe it fits the Peter Thiel ethos. He has his book, Zero to One, I think it's one of the best investing books out there. But it talks about how you have to be different to achieve something different. They are certainly being very different from other folks, certainly, in the government services industry, maybe other companies, in general. When we look at the numbers from the earnings report, what the company is giving us as far as performance of the business. What stood out to you from earnings?\nWhiteman: This is starting on a very high level. It was a very good quarter this recent quarter. We should note, they only went public late last year. It's an 18-year-old company, but it's relatively new to the public markets. Anyway, they earned $0.04 per share on revenue of $375 million. That easily topped estimates on revenue, $353 million was the estimate. It was a penny ahead on analyst expectations. Revenue was up an eye-popping 49% year-over-year. Adjusted operating margin topped 30% for the third straight quarter.  This is a good solid business. We'll talk about that later. But I think the heart of the question of what Palantir does, why don't analysts get it, is there is a market disconnect right now going on with the strength of the business versus the strength of the stock. It's hard to get by. But look, they are forecasting great things. They had a 3-to-1 book to bill ratio, which means they're bringing in almost three times the business they're billing out. Fantastic. They had 20 customers in the quarter. Many of those, to be honest, didn't view this a bit of an asterisk there, but that is growth, and commercial side growth as we'll talk about soon, is key to the bull case here. Most impressive, they don't really give guidance, but they said with confidence, 30% annual revenue growth for each of the next five years. We're talking about growing the business from just over $1 billion, analyzing run-rate to a $3.5-4 billion company in a matter of five years, 2026. As an investor, you got to like that. They are definitely going in the right direction.\nSciple: Big question for me, and you may or may not have deep thoughts on this Lou. But just why now? You mentioned this is a company that's been around for a number of years. They were involved in the Osama Bin Laden capture a number of years ago. This company has been around for a while. Now, we're seeing this incredible growth, forecasting lots of growth into the future. What is your perception of the quarter they've turned here, or why now?\nWhiteman: This is perception because as we discussed from the top, this isn't a company that really likes to spell out all of its thoughts out to the markets. They only went public last year. That coincided with a real push on the commercial side. They've mostly been a government contractor. I think what we're seeing here is part of their evolution into, hopefully, a more diversified contractor serving both government and commercial customers, to justify a strong public listing. They've been around for 18 years and they are only now a $1 billion company, mostly in defense. That's going to trade at a different valuation than a company that can really attack the commercial market. We can get into that in a second as far as where they are in that. But I think that this, the PR push, the going public, the commercial, this is all about turning from a niche government contractor to a more-mainstream data analytics company.\nSciple: It's that leap, maybe if you think about it. There's a couple of examples of autonomy. We had the DARPA program that was about autonomous vehicles, and now you have lots of companies trying to launch that in a commercial sense. If you look at iRobot, that makes the robot vacuums, the early history of that company was they were a robotic minesweeper. Obviously, you don't want people to be going around, walking through the minefield tracking for mines. That was the early development of that technology. Maybe this is another example of technology developed in the test tube of the military that now you can open up the floodgates and unleash it out onto the commercial world. One thing you mentioned about, Lou, some of the growth in revenue we're seeing. I think they said there's only 1% of their growth and revenue. But a huge chunk of their total contract volume is coming from these smaller companies, they call them \"Day Zero\" companies, that they are investing in. What can you tell us about what they're doing here? Obviously, there's some risk.\nWhiteman: They are investing partially through the SPACs. They are investing in companies that they see promise in, and they are also finding customers that way. You can't do it forever, but it's hard to knock the strategy. Let's talk about it a little because I think this gets back to that initial, what is Palantir, and the question was, why don't analysts get it? Which is an interesting thing to say. This is a company, as we said, most of their history has been on the defense side. Right now, it's almost a $50 billion market cap on a $1 billion run rate of sales, so a quite rich price-to-sales on today. Even if you go forward with that 30% growth over five years, we're still talking about 12 to 15 times projected 2026 sales. Honestly, defense contractors mostly are less than two times sales. It's just out of this world for defense. This is part of this process where they need to become a commercial company. While they're making progress here, and like the Day Zero companies, they are being innovative in how they're going to do it. There was nothing in this quarter to suggest that the profile of this company is going to change anytime soon. Government with 61% of total revenue in the quarter, and it is growing faster. Government grew by about 66%, commercial grew about 28%.\nBy comparison, it's hard to get a perfect comparison, but Snowflake, which is a commercial company, similar size revenue, grew revenue by 110%. It is not growing as fast as Snowflake on the commercial side. If the government is a bigger part of the pie, and it's the side that's growing faster, it is really hard quickly to transition yourself into a commercial vendor. I think a lot of the angst in that question was, why don't analysts get the commercial? I think that's the better answer to that question right now, is that commercial is still the area of promise, but not the area that is the bulk of the business. These Day Zero companies initiatives like that, they've partnered with IBM to try and sell the software, which will cut margins which should hopefully help with growth. These are ways where they are trying to transform themselves into a more commercial minded company that arguably could justify a higher valuation long term.\nSciple: They talked about hiring a significant number of sales staff. Obviously, going out to sell to a different, more varied group of customers. I will say, for any company, we're having a venture capital arm of our business that's spinning up customers for us. I will say though, it makes you feel a little bit better when you have Peter Thiel, one of the best venture capitalists ever, as the chairman of the board. If there's anybody that's going to pick winners and have a pretty high hit rate there, I think he's one of them. We'll have to see.\nWhiteman: They have the cash. I don't think there is a downside, but I also don't think that  this solves there. It looked really good on the customer acquisition numbers. It's not going to drive revenue and really transform the business, just the nature of these customers.\nSciple: Yeah. Really questions about how quickly they can continue to grow this commercial side, how these bets on smaller companies work out. You mentioned the cash pile, Lou, and that's the other thing that's grabbing headlines here is how they're spending that cash pile. The company purchased $50 million in 100-ounce gold bars, they said in their Aug. 12 earnings statement. They said the purchase will be kept in a secure third-party facility located in the Northeastern United States and the company will be able to take possession of the gold bars at any time with reasonable notice. They've talked about this being insurance against a black swan event. Palantir is the eye in the sky that's helping support the operations of people like the CIA and the NSA. What do you make of this group in particular, buying $50 million in gold bars?\nWhiteman: That is certainly the headline, this so-called Skynet, the company that has the AI capable of predicting the future, is buying gold. You know, that's something. I don't know what to make of it. I think it's a great way to get publicity. I can't imagine a lot of at least the U.S. government or large corporate customers saying we want to pay in gold. It feels more like a publicity thing, maybe a foreign government sales, it may come in handy. But yeah, it definitely catches the eye, maybe they know something we don't. But I have a hard time changing my view of the business based on the fact that they bought gold. It's just a really fun thing to watch to see exactly what they have planned.\nSciple: Yeah. For me, it's a couple of things. For me, partially, it's a $50 million marketing expense line item, you can think of it that way because me and you are talking about it, CNBC is talking about it, they're writing it up on Bloomberg, all these other places. I don't know if you could get that level of coverage across the world in the financial media with just a $50 million ad buy. You certainly have an asset left on the back end here with the gold purchase that you wouldn't have had if you just went in and spent it on ads, there's that. Do you think it's realistic, because they talked about customers having the ability to pay with cryptocurrency but nobody has paid, they are encouraging customers to pay with gold. But the people who had realistically wanted to have untraceable payments are the people that Palantir had said they will not service. There's potentially hostile groups and groups that would want to cover up their operations. I don't think that the U.S. Government wants to cover up that they are a customer of Palantir.\nWhiteman: No. I mean, hopefully not. There was a high-profile customer we won't name who was a customer, but it turned out that they we're using the software to spy on employees and not make better lending decisions. But that was a few years ago in the past. Yeah, no, I mean, it's funny not to be too tongue-in-cheek, but it's hard to imagine a big customer actually piling gold into a truck and driving at the Palantir headquarters, so probably what you would have is some paper that represents an amount of gold, which used to be the U.S. dollar, so maybe they're just trying to get us back to the gold standard. But I tend to think you're right, that's $50 million of publicity that they also have an asset in the bank on. We'll see what else they do with that. I'd be surprised if it's much.\nSciple: Yeah, I choose to take the publicity angle on this because if you take that they're predicting World War III angle here, I don't want to predict that future, so I'm going to choose the publicity angle. Lou, you mentioned earlier, when you look at Palantir, they're tough to put a thumb on, and in some perspectives, you want to going to put it in the bucket of government services contractors, and others you want to put it in this bucket with your Amazons, and your Snowflakes, and your Microsoft as this transformational Cloud software business. About a year ago, we did a defense stocks basket, which was some of these traditional companies. When you look at how Palantir has traded compared to some of those other companies, what are your thoughts on where Palantir fits in the bucket and there's different strategies for investors to get into these trends?\nWhiteman: Not to dump the question, but this is really hard because I think business is fantastic. There is, in my mind, though, a disconnect between the business and the stock. It's hard to know how long that goes on or how quickly they grow out of it. One thing I do believe is that if they cannot get the commercial up and running the way they hope to, the valuation is not sustainable over time. Governments have cost-plus contracts. There is only so much business. If you talked to Pentagon people about Palantir, they both loved the company, they love the software when it's needed. But that when it is needed is important because it is expensive, it is cumbersome, it is a huge install, and frankly, it's best used not universally but when it's needed. I do think there are limits on the government's side, and I think the commercial side, they couldn't run into some of those same things.\nLast December, I actually put together a separate basket that was instead of Palantir, to buy these three defense IT firms. I was thinking five years, for the record, so far, I have not been right. My basket has losing to Palantir for less than 1% on average. If you throw in dividends, total return, I think I'm up, but whatever, we're very early in a five-year process. But the thing that struck me when I was looking at that this morning is just that Palantir, for all of its volatility, has basically gone nowhere in a long time. Now, it has been so long, it's been at various points in time this year, it's been up 60% for the year. It was down as much as 25%, wild swings. But for the year, it is actually losing to the S&P 500 by almost 9 percentage points. Basically, if you take out all that noise, it's a flat line. I wonder, this company, these products, they're too good for it just to fall off a cliff. It's hard to imagine the catalyst where it just crashes, it's done. But it's also hard to see that catalyst to get a jump higher. I think one or two things are going to happen. Either they're going to surprise me with the way they can grow the commercial, and I think honestly, probably surprise themselves because I think it's going to be much more than that 30% if they really see the stock take off, or this could just be a flat stock for a while while it slowly grows into its valuation.\nLooking at what it's done last year, I think the good news is that's not the worst downside. Really, it's hard to imagine this company just ceasing to exist. But I do question whether it can be a market-leading investment given its current valuation and the growth that's baked in, and the challenges that might find growth quickly. It really surprised me, its performance versus the S&P 500 for the year. I wonder if that isn't telling of what we have, maybe not for the long, long term, but for the next few years, and the foreseeable future.\nSciple: Right. Certainly, some execution to live up to that valuation. Lou, you mentioned that basket. Just for completion's sake, what were the companies that were on that list of the three IT services firms?\nWhiteman: It was Booz Allen Hamilton, BAH, which to be honest, has been the real clunker for me, and then I believe it was SAIC, and Leidos Holdings, LDOS.\nSciple: Excellent. We've talked about those in the past so I'll try to drop some links to episodes where we've talked about some of those companies. Any last thoughts on Palantir before we move on our next topic?\nWhiteman: Again, I think just back to that original thing, why don't analysts understand? I think it's an open debate whether or not analysts understand it better than retail or if retail understands it better than analysts, because a lot of defense people like me are looking at it through that spectrum. We could be wrong and we could be missing it, but I think as an individual investor, you should at least be mindful that that could be what they are, too. As I said, the stock could readjust overtime.\nSciple: Is it Rule Breaker or is it a faker, we're going to find out sometime in these next quarters and years. The big thing we're going to be watching is how quickly they can grow that commercial business and sustain that growth overtime. We've talked about defense a lot today, Lou, in the context of Palantir. Maybe zooming out a little bit, the headline story everywhere is what's going on in Afghanistan, a really tragic scene. When you put what's going on there in the context of what it means for defense more broadly, do you have any high-level thoughts or context to give us?\nWhiteman: Yeah, as you say, it's so hard to watch, it's hard to really make it into a stock story, but these are stocks and they move on, I do think for big defense, it is mostly a distraction right now, I mean, it could be a distraction that causes some disruption. I'm pretty sure we're going to see hearings, I think it's going to distract Congress so we could see delays on the budget, that's less clarity than we hope. There could be some resignations, there could be some shuffling in the budget because of it, so I don't think the big picture really alters on this, but I do think it could cause choppiness up ahead. Part of leaving Afghanistan as part of a broader trend toward a shift and focus toward what causes great power competition, that's mostly China and Russia. In the worst-case scenario, I guess with Afghanistan, we're kind of sucked back in, and maybe that means more near-term spending on munitions versus great power R&D, which the companies would definitely prefer. The R&D, it's higher margin, more turnaround, but it's hard to imagine a world where we stopped focusing on Russia and China, and so I do think the R&D would be sustained. If anything, there was about $9 billion in the fiscal 2020 Pentagon budget to support the Afghan Army. That's presumably off the table, that does give some wiggle. That's not enough really to shift views on any one stock, but there is some wiggle room now. I think, long term, the thesis prior to this when all these companies remains the same, but it's certainly doesn't help clarity as far as when things get done and what the budget in the next year or two looks like.\nSciple: Yeah, it's an interesting history that rhymes a little bit, there was the Vietnam evacuation that was centered around Russia and some of the things going on there, and now we have this great power focus. Whenever I hear great power, I just translate that to Cold War in my brain, that's essentially the 21st century version of that, that's where we're headed.\nWhiteman: I think we are and unfortunately, it's probably bullish for defense stocks over time because that does involve alot of again, this  R&D spending on advanced stuff. It's a very different profile than fighting insurgence, the low level war, but until the world gets safer.\nSciple: Hopefully, that can happen, Lou, any last thoughts here on the defense universe before we send us all home?\nWhiteman: It's been a weird couple of years. We had the election last year and concerns about that, that I think we're overblown and now fresh chaos. This remains for me a sector that if you are very long-term and especially if you want dividends because you have a lot of approaching 3% dividend yields. I think it's still a safe place to go, but it is a long-term investment and you do, and there's tons of noise you have to block out, bullish and bearish.\nSciple: Lou, always love having you on the show, can't wait to have you back on again soon.\nWhiteman: Pleasure to be here, Nick.\nSciple: As always, people on the program may own companies discussed on the show and The Motley Fool may have formal recommendations for or against the stocks discussed, so don't buy or sell anything based on what you hear. Thanks to Tim Sparks for mixing the show. For Lou Whiteman, I'm Nick Sciple, thanks for listening and Fool on.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":17,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9016821903,"gmtCreate":1649168513616,"gmtModify":1676534462506,"author":{"id":"3580123620847057","authorId":"3580123620847057","name":"Wheee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580123620847057","authorIdStr":"3580123620847057"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Sad","listText":"Sad","text":"Sad","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9016821903","repostId":"1154558214","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154558214","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":1649165886,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1154558214?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-04-05 21:38","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Hot Chinese ADRs Slipped in Morning Trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154558214","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Hot Chinese ADRs slipped in morning trading. Alibaba, Pinduoduo, JD.com, NetEase, Baidu, Bilibili, D","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Hot Chinese ADRs slipped in morning trading. Alibaba, Pinduoduo, JD.com, NetEase, Baidu, Bilibili, DiDi, Ke Holdings, Nio, Xpeng and Li Auto fell between 1% and 6%.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/39e9de68cf72824e5ab1b9e1035d4cf9\" tg-width=\"417\" tg-height=\"532\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8ddcbd033b8545edcd852c796da3a7f8\" tg-width=\"423\" tg-height=\"373\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a8282f2b9c02775e0d455cd90b49deb2\" tg-width=\"414\" tg-height=\"295\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
