Square’s mas","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Arguably the most important fintech metric is customer acquisition cost (CAC). Square’s mastery of viral marketing results in the lowest CAC in the digital wallet space. This is a moat.</li>\n <li>Square is building massive ecosystems in Cash App and Seller that are just beginning to overlap, which results in massive cross-selling opportunities and network effects.</li>\n <li>Square banking is a major catalyst that has not received sufficient attention from analysts or investors.</li>\n <li>Square has spent an entire year building as-of-yet unannounced Square Checking and Square Banking products. This is a shot across the bow at incumbent banks, and indicates Square is ready for a higher level of fintech warfare.</li>\n <li>Square’s future relationship with crypto remains undercooked, and Dorsey’s overfocus on Bitcoin to the exclusion of alternative coins is an uncommon mistake.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Square's Investment Thesis</b></p>\n<p>When I begin researching a company for an article, I always start with the CEO. For as much as I know about balance sheets and technical analysis, it is the CEO that I am most critical and analytical about.</p>\n<p>This is reflected in the types of companies I invest in and write about. Opendoor (OPEN), SoFi (SOFI), Zillow (Z) and Palantir (PLTR) are each led by visionary CEO’s, with colorful histories who make massive contributions to their industries. In my opinion, the story behind these disruptive companies and the CEOs who lead them can inform investment decisions as surely as an earnings report.</p>\n<p>Writing this article began no differently. Jack Dorsey, the $15 Billion dollar man who leads both Square (SQ) and Twitter (TWTR), is one of Wall Street’s biggest eccentricities. He has a penchant for meditating, facial hair, intermittent fasting, 80+ minute morning walks and wields an invisible armor that has allowed him to endure a decade of investors ranting he over-focuses on Square to the detriment of Twitter (sorry Twitter longs).</p>\n<p>Today, we will dive into Square – its competitive advantages over neo-banking peers and incumbents alike, Square's banking opportunity, as well as an update on Square’s cryptocurrency initiatives. Square is the best positioned company in the digital wallet space, and Jack's advertising expertise gained by founding and running Twitter has allowed Square to deploy viral marketing campaigns to fuel absurd growth in Cash App. Cash App's success is rivaled only by Square's Seller ecosystem, and these two businesses are just beginning to combine, interact and compound.</p>\n<p>We're going to talk about all of this here. But first, I want to share a story about how a young Square, in its first years as a company, suffered a direct Amazon (AMZN) salvo and somehow emerged stronger.</p>\n<p><b>How Square Survived An Amazon Siege</b></p>\n<p>Bookstores, brick and mortal retail, supermarkets, meal-kits, enterprise cloud, the list of industries Amazon has bled out and internalized stretches on.</p>\n<p>Amazon has earned the moniker, “The Death Star.”Bought and paid for it. Over the past two decades no other company has so pervasively and efficiently disrupted legacy industries.</p>\n<p>As a brief anecdote, in his early days at Amazon, CEO and founder Jeff Bezos was always searching for ways to eliminate company overhead. In his mind, the less Amazon spent on operations, the more savings could be passed on to Amazon customers.</p>\n<p>In this vein, instead of purchasing a fancy desk for his office, Bezos built his own out of a recycled door and some two by fours. This practice caught on, and Amazon's employees participated broadly by building their own desks out of wooden doors.</p>\n<p>The wooden door initiative served two purposes: 1) it was a cultural commitment to humility, from the top down, and 2) it emphasized the importance of spending money only on initiatives that improve the customer experience.</p>\n<p>There's a picture of Bezos working away on his door deskhere. I’m tempted to frame this photograph, and I probably would if my fiancé would let me. Just confirmed, she says no. But I love this combined concept of customer obsession and frugality.</p>\n<p>From a capital allocation, leadership, and customer-centric perspective, it’s easy to look back now and recognize how Amazon became the goliath it is today. Bezos may not look it, but he is a ruthless, patient CEO whose basilisk gaze you pray doesn’t fall on your industry.</p>\n<p>So when Amazon turned its cannons on a private, relatively small payment processing company named Square in 2014, you didn’t have to be a rocket scientist to know who would be left standing after the dust settled.</p>\n<p>But if you assumed it would be Amazon, you would have been wrong.</p>\n<p>“Amazon Register” was built to kill Square. It undercut Square’s pricing by 30% and offered live customer service (which Square did not have). Even by Square co-founderJim McKelvey’s own admission, Amazon’s product worked better than Square’s ‘dongle’ did (I hate that word as much as you do and I promise to not use it again).</p>\n<p>But Square survived. Thrived in fact. Square continued to execute along the same playbook, launched new features like Square Capital to the innovation stack, and grew roughly 10% week over week that year. Amazon, for all its strength, could not compete with Square in offerings, and small businesses were understandably skeptical about partnering with Amazon.</p>\n<p>After the year-long siege, on October 30, 2015, Amazon gracefully bowed out, announcing they were shuttering Amazon Register. When the hardware was officially discontinued in early 2016, Amazon mailed a white Square card reader to each of its business customers.</p>\n<p>And the rest is history.</p>\n<p>Since Square’s IPO in 2015, the company has continued to fend off fearsome competitors such as Intuit (INTU), PayPal (PYPL), and Shopify (SHOP), not to mention the largest banking systems in the world. Square has ridden a wave of timely and engaging financial innovations to a market cap of $107 Billion at the time of this writing. Cash App’s growth has been an absolute rocket ship, and Dorsey is delivering on the long term vision of connecting Seller and Cash App to one, unified ecosystem.</p>\n<p><b>Square’s Moat: Customer Acquisition Cost</b></p>\n<p>In the banking space, the company that optimizes lifetime value [LTV] vs customer acquisition cost [CAC] is the company that wins.</p>\n<p>Read that again, write it down, bold it and underline it.</p>\n<p>This is not supernatural. Behind the B-school terminology is a basic principle of unit economics: make more from a customer than it costs to acquire them, and do it better than competitors.</p>\n<p>Of all the participants in the banking ecosystem, I believe Square has the lowest customer acquisition costs. This is a major part of the Dorsey value proposition, and misunderstood.</p>\n<p>As founder and CEO of both Square and Twitter, Dorsey has been able to leverage his incredibly nuanced understanding of viral communication to inform viral marketing. Starting in 2017, Twitter mediated campaigns like #CashAppFriday, in which Square offers thousands of dollars to Twitter users who post their Cash App handle, has drawn massive numbers of comments, retweets and Cash App downloads. Partnerships with engaging content developers like the Joe Rogan Experience, Lex Fridmen, Burger King, Travis Scott and Lil B have continued to drive brand awareness. This brand awareness is critical, especially in a crowded digital banking space.According to this study, 82% of app or internet searchers choose a familiar brand for the first click.</p>\n<p>As an example of viral and opportunistic marketing, in 2018 a prominent content creator on TikTok, “Shiggy” released a SoundCloud song about Cash App. After striking a sponsorship deal with Shiggy in 2019, the Cash App marketing team edited a shorter version of the single, and reached out to TikTok influencers with the below message:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Create a TikTok with your best interpretation of the catchy song in everyday situations. And use hashtag #CashAppThatMoney.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Source:Business Insider</p>\n<p>To date, the Shiggy Cash App song has beenused in 9,138 videos. Prominent TikTok influencers such as Addison Rae (81+ million followers) have leveraged their massive platforms to drive hundreds of millions of views.</p>\n<p>Look at the below tweet I found from Cash App on May 7thof this year. By leveraging Cash App’s 1.2 million Twitter followers, $5k in marketing spend and goodwill resulted in 17.4k comments and 26.7k retweets. Those retweets create a reverberation in the Twitter ecosystem and result in a geometric increase in captive eyeballs. Now I am not a TikTok'er and I started a Twitter account within the past month, but it's important to appreciate Square's masterful use of these millennial and Gen Z driven platforms. Assuming roughly one in 50 retweeting individuals downloads CashApp, Square’s CAC is &lt; $10 dollars.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dee784888614bff23c414cecae7e5f7e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"171\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source:CashApp Twitter</p>\n<p>The takehome point from this type of marketing? Cash App is able to climb a more vertical slope of user acquisition at lower cost than challenger and incumbent banks alike.</p>\n<p>ARK Invest estimatesincumbent banks spend an average of $925 dollars on customer acquisition. On Square’s most recent earning’s call, management confirmed their CAC was less than $5 dollars. Said another way, Square’s marketing and customer acquisition is 18,500% higher than your retail bank.</p>\n<p>So how has Square flown under the radar of the massive U.S. banking industry?</p>\n<p>Square’s strategy to largely target unbanked or “under-banked” individuals allowed them to build a platform without drawing the attention of Wells Fargo (WFC), Bank of America (BAC), and JPMorgan Chase (JPM). But Square is now one of the top ten largest ‘banks’ in the United States by market cap, and is expanding its total addressable market to those who are already clients of traditional banks.</p>\n<p>This strategy of finding an underserved population, providing value to those customers, then broadening offerings and selling upmarket is in Square’s DNA. They followed the same playbook on the Seller side, initially targeting small businesses doing less than $100k in GMV, but today Square's fastest growing segment is mid- to large-size businesses.</p>\n<p>Square’s peer Venmo cannot flex the same marketing efficiencies as Cash App. Cash App continues to hold the crown as the most downloaded finance application on Apple’s App Store (AAPL) as well as Google Play Store (GOOG), more popular than Venmo, PayPal Cash, and Robinhood (RBNHD). Furthermore, Square has a full 10X more followers than Venmo on Twitter. These advantages manifest as Square enjoying a healthy gap over Venmo in search as well.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f0ee1067df9e647949f72f4d772af186\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"172\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source:Similarweb</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/df7398ef5a030917f6de3ac8d13fe5a9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"394\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source: I made this with help fromGoogle Trends</p>\n<p>Perhaps most importantly, although Venmo has more monthly active users (MAU’s), Square is better at<i>monetizing</i>these users.According to RBC Capital analyst DanielPerlin, Venmo garners roughly $12 from each MAU, whereas Cash App brings in $54. And due to industry low CAC, Cash App gets the extra benefit of being more profitable as well.</p>\n<p>While there is much more that can be said about Square and PayPal’s competition in the challenger banking space, it is this customer acquisition and long term value that underlies why I prefer holding shares of Square over PayPal.</p>\n<p>Square is just doing the important things better than Venmo. Part of this is Dorsey's social media advantages, but I believe much if it has to do with the fact that Venmo was acquired by PayPal, whereas Square remains independent. The innovative connective tissue which once held Venmo together and fostered bold ideas and big bets was absorbed into the massive PayPal machine, and lost.</p>\n<p>As a SoFi shareholder and bull, I was disappointed to learn in my research that SoFi has been unable thus far to creatively turn its Twitter presence into a customer acquisition engine. Despite 120k+ followers, the SoFi Twitter page has relatively low engagement and no promotional activities reminiscent of #CashAppFriday. SoFi CEO Anthony Noto coincidentally was formerly COO of Twitter when #CashAppFriday first launched, and I believe he will be able to leverage this experience into a more engaging social media presence. Fortunately for SoFi, their CAC's are low (~$40) with much higher LTV's than Cash App as of now (roughly double, close to $2,000 with cross selling into lending).</p>\n<p><b>Square Financial Services: A Bank For All Mankind</b></p>\n<p>On March 1, 2021, Square announced its banking service had begun operations after completing the charter approval process with the FDIC. This is a massive catalyst for Square’s business, and positions them squarely against the glacially slow incumbent banks.</p>\n<p>I recently wrote adeep dive on SoFi(SOFI), which is also pursuing a bank charter, and discussed the massive benefits these fintech companies inherit by building banking infrastructure. With this banking platform, Square will be able to make loans using deposits on its platform, originate loans to small businesses, and improve profitability.</p>\n<p>About a month ago, an iOS developer namedSteve Moser discovered codeon a Square software update revealing new products “Square Checking” and “Square Savings.” Based on the code, Square is planning to offer 0.5% interest rates for its savings accounts through 2021, a full 8+ times higher than thenational savings account average.</p>\n<p>Square's banking play is a continuation of the playbook that led them to purchase Credit Karma’s tax preparation business in 2020. At the time of the acquisition, roughly 2 million Americans used Karma to file returns, with an average refund of $2k. Those tax returns were then deposited in Cash App accounts, where fintech magic happens. Higher account deposits can be loaned out, drive increased transaction volume, and ultimately elevate the LTV of the user.</p>\n<p>SoFi is doing something similar with its $3k account minimums for SoFi IPO Invest, and Square’s banking venture has the opportunity to both elevate account balances and steal additional customers from incumbent banks.</p>\n<p>And the incumbent banks are terrified. See what Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan and perhaps the most famous banker in the world has said about Square over the years.</p>\n<blockquote>\n What does the small business want? They wanted to process cash and checks and debit on the same machine. We didn’t give them that opportunity. Square did.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Jamie Dimon, CEO, JP Morgan, Investor Day, 2019</p>\n<p>And more recently when asked if JPM should be scared of challenger banks like Square:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Absolutely we should be scared s---less about that. We’ve just got to get quicker, better, faster.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Jamie Dimon, CEO, JP Morgan, Investor Day, January, 2021</p>\n<p>Most importantly, adding banking services multiplies the LTV of Square's customers, and is a major step towards Cash App becoming a financial super app. The single biggest money maker for individual banking customers is checking and savings accounts. According to an ARK Invest white paper, LTV per retail banking customer is roughly $3,600, of which a full 25%, or $900 is checking and savings accounts.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2bdfa91840a4611caf6808ad0c4bb076\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"367\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source: ARK Invest, with annotations from me:Cash App vs Venmo</p>\n<p>You can breathlessly hype Square's Bitcoin opportunities and wax poetic about Cash App's booming Bitcoin revenue, but the meat and potatoes is here, right in front of us: Square banking. The weapon Square will use to dethrone the incumbent banks is slowly being drawn from its sheath.</p>\n<p><b>Jack Dorsey's Bitcoin Obsession</b></p>\n<p>For those of you who don't follow Dorsey on Twitter or read updates about the Bitcoin (BTC-USD) 2021 Convention, believe me when I say Jack is<i>convicted</i>about the role Bitcoin will play in the Internet’s future.</p>\n<blockquote>\n If I were not at Square or Twitter, I would be working on bitcoin. If bitcoin needed more help than Square or Twitter, I would leave them for bitcoin.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Jack Dorsey, CEO Square, CEO Twitter,Bitcoin 2021 Conference</p>\n<p>At the conference Dorsey announced Square is considering releasing a hardware Bitcoin wallet. For those unfamiliar, when you purchase cryptocurrency on an exchange, the vast majority of the time it is not actually<i>yours</i>, but is in fact an IOU. If you’ve heard the expression, “Not your keys, not your coins,” this is referring directly to this issue. If you don’t have a hardware wallet with a password only you have access to, then the coins don’t truly belong to you.</p>\n<p>Regarding Square's involvement inBitcoin hardware wallets, color me unimpressed. I was surprised to see Square’s stock pop on that news. I can’t really see a situation where a company doing $20+ Billion a year in sales like Square gets meaningful top or bottom line contribution from a glorified flash drive. It’s just not going to move the needle.</p>\n<p>To be honest, cryptocurrency is the biggest potential blind spot I see right now in Dorsey’s execution. Don’t get me wrong, as a Square shareholder I will<i>gladly accept a</i>1,047% increase year over year in Bitcoin revenue to $3.51 B as of Q1 2021. But Dorsey refusing to allow any other coins on the Cash App platform is, in my opinion, the wrong choice for Square and cryptocurrency in general. I have already heard several friends comment they see no role for Cash App because its “crypto features” only allow for Bitcoin trading.</p>\n<p>“That’s why we don’t deal with any other ‘currencies’ or ‘coins’ because we’re so focused on making bitcoin the native currency for the internet,”</p>\n<p>-Jack Dorsey, CEO Square</p>\n<p>Effectively, Dorsey is limiting features for Square’s Cash App users to focus all attention on Bitcoin. But that’s not really how cryptocurrency works – over the past several years the market share of Bitcoin has declined slightly as new platforms have generated interest and ease of investing in alternative coins. Diversity of coin options coincided with Bitcoin reaching its highest market capitalization of all time. I believe there is space for more than one coin in the future, and am personally invested in Ethereum (ETH-USD) due to the utility it offers as the nexus of Internet 3.0.</p>\n<p>I would love to see Dorsey developing revenue-driving crypto services such as decentralized finance for Square. I said this for SoFi, and I will say it again for Square: a staking system, by which users are granted upsize interest for holding Bitcoin in their Cash App, for example, would dramatically elevate Cash App’s value proposition. This is something for all challenger banks to explore and invest in, and it is a game changer.</p>\n<p>All that said, Square has a history of surprising analysts and investors with clever solutions that delight customers. Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency landscape<i>needs</i>innovation and development, and Square is well capitalized in cash and intellect to address this issue.</p>\n<p><b>Square's Near Term Risks</b></p>\n<p>Despite how positive I feel about Square's long-term positioning in the fintech space, I would be remiss if I did not alert you to several considerable near term risks. Square is hurtling towards challenging 2020 comps, with Q2 2020 being the first quarter of government disbursement checks. While I expect Square to post excellent Seller and Cash App numbers, growth will inherently moderate. Furthermore, Cash App benefited from Robinhood's well-publicized meltdown in Q1, as retail investors searched for more transparent and reliable trading platforms. This resulted in a pull-forward of user growth, and I do not believe this is sustainable or reflective of Cash App's long term user growth rates.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, Square's Q1 2021 shareholder letter was chock full of new operating expense forecasts for Q2. Square promised stock based compensation would rise materially in Q2 as new hirings occurred (in Q1 was $118 million), an increase in product development and G&amp;A by $120 million, as well as an increase in transaction and loan losses by $40 million.</p>\n<p>A potential bright spot is Square's investment in DoorDash (DASH), which was a catalyst for Square's blowout Q4 2020 earnings. Based on a price of $168.5/share at the time of this writing, DoorDash's stock has appreciated 28.5% since Q1 end. That equates to a $65 million appreciation in Square's DoorDash equity ownership.</p>\n<p>Even still, netting out equity appreciation and Square's guided opex expansion, Square is guiding for roughly $110 million in additional Q2 spend. This is significant for a company that earned only $39 million last quarter, and Q1 was already benefiting from stimulus check disbursement and peak Bitcoin price and volatility.</p>\n<p>And that brings us to Bitcoin, of which Square owns 8,027 coins.</p>\n<p>Bitcoin's price at the conclusion of Q1 (March 31, 2021) was $58,724. At the time of this writing, one Bitcoin is valued at $32,270, or a 45% drop from the prior quarter.</p>\n<p><b>This is a loss of $259 million on Bitcoin alone in Q2, 2021.</b></p>\n<p>Gulp. All in, these costs will result in an estimated $370 million drag on Square's Q2 earnings. Despite these facts, consensus estimates for Square indicate the investment community believes Square will be<i>profitable</i>this quarter, with 86% earnings revisions up over the past three months. I would be shocked if Square turned a profit this next quarter.</p>\n<p>Accordingly, if you are considering a position in Square, this might be a good indication to wait on the sidelines and see how the next earnings call plays out. As a long term Square shareholder I will continue to hold, as none of these issues impacts my long term bullish stance on Square. I believe Bitcoin will recover over the balance of 2021, and Square's investments in product development and talent acquisition are necessary for the battle ahead with legacy banks.</p>\n<p><b>Concluding Thoughts</b></p>\n<p>The holy grail of the fintech space is low customer acquisition cost. Dorsey’s mastery of viral social media advertising generating low CAC's has been a primary catalyst of Square’s titanic growth rates. Square is just beginning to combine and integrate Cash App and Seller, which will manifest as increased user LTV and strengthening network effects.</p>\n<p>Between Square cross-selling Cash App and Seller, solidifying a banking presence with Square banking and the development and implementation of much-needed crypto services, Square will be the apex presence in the fintech space, with no natural predators. I believe this not only possible, but likely. As the future fintech king, Square has a vast ocean of opportunity ahead, because in the multi-trillion financial services space, winner takes most.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Square: Winner Takes Most</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\">\nSquare: Winner Takes Most\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-22 17:04 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4435869-square-winner-takes-most><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nArguably the most important fintech metric is customer acquisition cost (CAC).

Square’s mastery of viral marketing results in the lowest CAC in the digital wallet space. This is a moat.\nSquare is building massive ecosystems in Cash App and Seller that are just beginning to overlap, which results in massive cross-selling opportunities and network effects.\nSquare banking is a major catalyst that has not received sufficient attention from analysts or investors.\nSquare has spent an entire year building as-of-yet unannounced Square Checking and Square Banking products. This is a shot across the bow at incumbent banks, and indicates Square is ready for a higher level of fintech warfare.\nSquare’s future relationship with crypto remains undercooked, and Dorsey’s overfocus on Bitcoin to the exclusion of alternative coins is an uncommon mistake.\n\nSquare's Investment Thesis\nWhen I begin researching a company for an article, I always start with the CEO. For as much as I know about balance sheets and technical analysis, it is the CEO that I am most critical and analytical about.\nThis is reflected in the types of companies I invest in and write about. Opendoor (OPEN), SoFi (SOFI), Zillow (Z) and Palantir (PLTR) are each led by visionary CEO’s, with colorful histories who make massive contributions to their industries. In my opinion, the story behind these disruptive companies and the CEOs who lead them can inform investment decisions as surely as an earnings report.\nWriting this article began no differently. Jack Dorsey, the $15 Billion dollar man who leads both Square (SQ) and Twitter (TWTR), is one of Wall Street’s biggest eccentricities. He has a penchant for meditating, facial hair, intermittent fasting, 80+ minute morning walks and wields an invisible armor that has allowed him to endure a decade of investors ranting he over-focuses on Square to the detriment of Twitter (sorry Twitter longs).\nToday, we will dive into Square – its competitive advantages over neo-banking peers and incumbents alike, Square's banking opportunity, as well as an update on Square’s cryptocurrency initiatives. Square is the best positioned company in the digital wallet space, and Jack's advertising expertise gained by founding and running Twitter has allowed Square to deploy viral marketing campaigns to fuel absurd growth in Cash App. Cash App's success is rivaled only by Square's Seller ecosystem, and these two businesses are just beginning to combine, interact and compound.\nWe're going to talk about all of this here. But first, I want to share a story about how a young Square, in its first years as a company, suffered a direct Amazon (AMZN) salvo and somehow emerged stronger.\nHow Square Survived An Amazon Siege\nBookstores, brick and mortal retail, supermarkets, meal-kits, enterprise cloud, the list of industries Amazon has bled out and internalized stretches on.\nAmazon has earned the moniker, “The Death Star.”Bought and paid for it. Over the past two decades no other company has so pervasively and efficiently disrupted legacy industries.\nAs a brief anecdote, in his early days at Amazon, CEO and founder Jeff Bezos was always searching for ways to eliminate company overhead. In his mind, the less Amazon spent on operations, the more savings could be passed on to Amazon customers.\nIn this vein, instead of purchasing a fancy desk for his office, Bezos built his own out of a recycled door and some two by fours. This practice caught on, and Amazon's employees participated broadly by building their own desks out of wooden doors.\nThe wooden door initiative served two purposes: 1) it was a cultural commitment to humility, from the top down, and 2) it emphasized the importance of spending money only on initiatives that improve the customer experience.\nThere's a picture of Bezos working away on his door deskhere. I’m tempted to frame this photograph, and I probably would if my fiancé would let me. Just confirmed, she says no. But I love this combined concept of customer obsession and frugality.\nFrom a capital allocation, leadership, and customer-centric perspective, it’s easy to look back now and recognize how Amazon became the goliath it is today. Bezos may not look it, but he is a ruthless, patient CEO whose basilisk gaze you pray doesn’t fall on your industry.\nSo when Amazon turned its cannons on a private, relatively small payment processing company named Square in 2014, you didn’t have to be a rocket scientist to know who would be left standing after the dust settled.\nBut if you assumed it would be Amazon, you would have been wrong.\n“Amazon Register” was built to kill Square. It undercut Square’s pricing by 30% and offered live customer service (which Square did not have). Even by Square co-founderJim McKelvey’s own admission, Amazon’s product worked better than Square’s ‘dongle’ did (I hate that word as much as you do and I promise to not use it again).\nBut Square survived. Thrived in fact. Square continued to execute along the same playbook, launched new features like Square Capital to the innovation stack, and grew roughly 10% week over week that year. Amazon, for all its strength, could not compete with Square in offerings, and small businesses were understandably skeptical about partnering with Amazon.\nAfter the year-long siege, on October 30, 2015, Amazon gracefully bowed out, announcing they were shuttering Amazon Register. When the hardware was officially discontinued in early 2016, Amazon mailed a white Square card reader to each of its business customers.\nAnd the rest is history.\nSince Square’s IPO in 2015, the company has continued to fend off fearsome competitors such as Intuit (INTU), PayPal (PYPL), and Shopify (SHOP), not to mention the largest banking systems in the world. Square has ridden a wave of timely and engaging financial innovations to a market cap of $107 Billion at the time of this writing. Cash App’s growth has been an absolute rocket ship, and Dorsey is delivering on the long term vision of connecting Seller and Cash App to one, unified ecosystem.\nSquare’s Moat: Customer Acquisition Cost\nIn the banking space, the company that optimizes lifetime value [LTV] vs customer acquisition cost [CAC] is the company that wins.\nRead that again, write it down, bold it and underline it.\nThis is not supernatural. Behind the B-school terminology is a basic principle of unit economics: make more from a customer than it costs to acquire them, and do it better than competitors.\nOf all the participants in the banking ecosystem, I believe Square has the lowest customer acquisition costs. This is a major part of the Dorsey value proposition, and misunderstood.\nAs founder and CEO of both Square and Twitter, Dorsey has been able to leverage his incredibly nuanced understanding of viral communication to inform viral marketing. Starting in 2017, Twitter mediated campaigns like #CashAppFriday, in which Square offers thousands of dollars to Twitter users who post their Cash App handle, has drawn massive numbers of comments, retweets and Cash App downloads. Partnerships with engaging content developers like the Joe Rogan Experience, Lex Fridmen, Burger King, Travis Scott and Lil B have continued to drive brand awareness. This brand awareness is critical, especially in a crowded digital banking space.According to this study, 82% of app or internet searchers choose a familiar brand for the first click.\nAs an example of viral and opportunistic marketing, in 2018 a prominent content creator on TikTok, “Shiggy” released a SoundCloud song about Cash App. After striking a sponsorship deal with Shiggy in 2019, the Cash App marketing team edited a shorter version of the single, and reached out to TikTok influencers with the below message:\n\n Create a TikTok with your best interpretation of the catchy song in everyday situations. And use hashtag #CashAppThatMoney.\n\nSource:Business Insider\nTo date, the Shiggy Cash App song has beenused in 9,138 videos. Prominent TikTok influencers such as Addison Rae (81+ million followers) have leveraged their massive platforms to drive hundreds of millions of views.\nLook at the below tweet I found from Cash App on May 7thof this year. By leveraging Cash App’s 1.2 million Twitter followers, $5k in marketing spend and goodwill resulted in 17.4k comments and 26.7k retweets. Those retweets create a reverberation in the Twitter ecosystem and result in a geometric increase in captive eyeballs. Now I am not a TikTok'er and I started a Twitter account within the past month, but it's important to appreciate Square's masterful use of these millennial and Gen Z driven platforms. Assuming roughly one in 50 retweeting individuals downloads CashApp, Square’s CAC is < $10 dollars.\n\nSource:CashApp Twitter\nThe takehome point from this type of marketing? Cash App is able to climb a more vertical slope of user acquisition at lower cost than challenger and incumbent banks alike.\nARK Invest estimatesincumbent banks spend an average of $925 dollars on customer acquisition. On Square’s most recent earning’s call, management confirmed their CAC was less than $5 dollars. Said another way, Square’s marketing and customer acquisition is 18,500% higher than your retail bank.\nSo how has Square flown under the radar of the massive U.S. banking industry?\nSquare’s strategy to largely target unbanked or “under-banked” individuals allowed them to build a platform without drawing the attention of Wells Fargo (WFC), Bank of America (BAC), and JPMorgan Chase (JPM). But Square is now one of the top ten largest ‘banks’ in the United States by market cap, and is expanding its total addressable market to those who are already clients of traditional banks.\nThis strategy of finding an underserved population, providing value to those customers, then broadening offerings and selling upmarket is in Square’s DNA. They followed the same playbook on the Seller side, initially targeting small businesses doing less than $100k in GMV, but today Square's fastest growing segment is mid- to large-size businesses.\nSquare’s peer Venmo cannot flex the same marketing efficiencies as Cash App. Cash App continues to hold the crown as the most downloaded finance application on Apple’s App Store (AAPL) as well as Google Play Store (GOOG), more popular than Venmo, PayPal Cash, and Robinhood (RBNHD). Furthermore, Square has a full 10X more followers than Venmo on Twitter. These advantages manifest as Square enjoying a healthy gap over Venmo in search as well.\n\nSource:Similarweb\n\nSource: I made this with help fromGoogle Trends\nPerhaps most importantly, although Venmo has more monthly active users (MAU’s), Square is better atmonetizingthese users.According to RBC Capital analyst DanielPerlin, Venmo garners roughly $12 from each MAU, whereas Cash App brings in $54. And due to industry low CAC, Cash App gets the extra benefit of being more profitable as well.\nWhile there is much more that can be said about Square and PayPal’s competition in the challenger banking space, it is this customer acquisition and long term value that underlies why I prefer holding shares of Square over PayPal.\nSquare is just doing the important things better than Venmo. Part of this is Dorsey's social media advantages, but I believe much if it has to do with the fact that Venmo was acquired by PayPal, whereas Square remains independent. The innovative connective tissue which once held Venmo together and fostered bold ideas and big bets was absorbed into the massive PayPal machine, and lost.\nAs a SoFi shareholder and bull, I was disappointed to learn in my research that SoFi has been unable thus far to creatively turn its Twitter presence into a customer acquisition engine. Despite 120k+ followers, the SoFi Twitter page has relatively low engagement and no promotional activities reminiscent of #CashAppFriday. SoFi CEO Anthony Noto coincidentally was formerly COO of Twitter when #CashAppFriday first launched, and I believe he will be able to leverage this experience into a more engaging social media presence. Fortunately for SoFi, their CAC's are low (~$40) with much higher LTV's than Cash App as of now (roughly double, close to $2,000 with cross selling into lending).\nSquare Financial Services: A Bank For All Mankind\nOn March 1, 2021, Square announced its banking service had begun operations after completing the charter approval process with the FDIC. This is a massive catalyst for Square’s business, and positions them squarely against the glacially slow incumbent banks.\nI recently wrote adeep dive on SoFi(SOFI), which is also pursuing a bank charter, and discussed the massive benefits these fintech companies inherit by building banking infrastructure. With this banking platform, Square will be able to make loans using deposits on its platform, originate loans to small businesses, and improve profitability.\nAbout a month ago, an iOS developer namedSteve Moser discovered codeon a Square software update revealing new products “Square Checking” and “Square Savings.” Based on the code, Square is planning to offer 0.5% interest rates for its savings accounts through 2021, a full 8+ times higher than thenational savings account average.\nSquare's banking play is a continuation of the playbook that led them to purchase Credit Karma’s tax preparation business in 2020. At the time of the acquisition, roughly 2 million Americans used Karma to file returns, with an average refund of $2k. Those tax returns were then deposited in Cash App accounts, where fintech magic happens. Higher account deposits can be loaned out, drive increased transaction volume, and ultimately elevate the LTV of the user.\nSoFi is doing something similar with its $3k account minimums for SoFi IPO Invest, and Square’s banking venture has the opportunity to both elevate account balances and steal additional customers from incumbent banks.\nAnd the incumbent banks are terrified. See what Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan and perhaps the most famous banker in the world has said about Square over the years.\n\n What does the small business want? They wanted to process cash and checks and debit on the same machine. We didn’t give them that opportunity. Square did.\n\nJamie Dimon, CEO, JP Morgan, Investor Day, 2019\nAnd more recently when asked if JPM should be scared of challenger banks like Square:\n\n Absolutely we should be scared s---less about that. We’ve just got to get quicker, better, faster.\n\nJamie Dimon, CEO, JP Morgan, Investor Day, January, 2021\nMost importantly, adding banking services multiplies the LTV of Square's customers, and is a major step towards Cash App becoming a financial super app. The single biggest money maker for individual banking customers is checking and savings accounts. According to an ARK Invest white paper, LTV per retail banking customer is roughly $3,600, of which a full 25%, or $900 is checking and savings accounts.\n\nSource: ARK Invest, with annotations from me:Cash App vs Venmo\nYou can breathlessly hype Square's Bitcoin opportunities and wax poetic about Cash App's booming Bitcoin revenue, but the meat and potatoes is here, right in front of us: Square banking. The weapon Square will use to dethrone the incumbent banks is slowly being drawn from its sheath.\nJack Dorsey's Bitcoin Obsession\nFor those of you who don't follow Dorsey on Twitter or read updates about the Bitcoin (BTC-USD) 2021 Convention, believe me when I say Jack isconvictedabout the role Bitcoin will play in the Internet’s future.\n\n If I were not at Square or Twitter, I would be working on bitcoin. If bitcoin needed more help than Square or Twitter, I would leave them for bitcoin.\n\nJack Dorsey, CEO Square, CEO Twitter,Bitcoin 2021 Conference\nAt the conference Dorsey announced Square is considering releasing a hardware Bitcoin wallet. For those unfamiliar, when you purchase cryptocurrency on an exchange, the vast majority of the time it is not actuallyyours, but is in fact an IOU. If you’ve heard the expression, “Not your keys, not your coins,” this is referring directly to this issue. If you don’t have a hardware wallet with a password only you have access to, then the coins don’t truly belong to you.\nRegarding Square's involvement inBitcoin hardware wallets, color me unimpressed. I was surprised to see Square’s stock pop on that news. I can’t really see a situation where a company doing $20+ Billion a year in sales like Square gets meaningful top or bottom line contribution from a glorified flash drive. It’s just not going to move the needle.\nTo be honest, cryptocurrency is the biggest potential blind spot I see right now in Dorsey’s execution. Don’t get me wrong, as a Square shareholder I willgladly accept a1,047% increase year over year in Bitcoin revenue to $3.51 B as of Q1 2021. But Dorsey refusing to allow any other coins on the Cash App platform is, in my opinion, the wrong choice for Square and cryptocurrency in general. I have already heard several friends comment they see no role for Cash App because its “crypto features” only allow for Bitcoin trading.\n“That’s why we don’t deal with any other ‘currencies’ or ‘coins’ because we’re so focused on making bitcoin the native currency for the internet,”\n-Jack Dorsey, CEO Square\nEffectively, Dorsey is limiting features for Square’s Cash App users to focus all attention on Bitcoin. But that’s not really how cryptocurrency works – over the past several years the market share of Bitcoin has declined slightly as new platforms have generated interest and ease of investing in alternative coins. Diversity of coin options coincided with Bitcoin reaching its highest market capitalization of all time. I believe there is space for more than one coin in the future, and am personally invested in Ethereum (ETH-USD) due to the utility it offers as the nexus of Internet 3.0.\nI would love to see Dorsey developing revenue-driving crypto services such as decentralized finance for Square. I said this for SoFi, and I will say it again for Square: a staking system, by which users are granted upsize interest for holding Bitcoin in their Cash App, for example, would dramatically elevate Cash App’s value proposition. This is something for all challenger banks to explore and invest in, and it is a game changer.\nAll that said, Square has a history of surprising analysts and investors with clever solutions that delight customers. Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency landscapeneedsinnovation and development, and Square is well capitalized in cash and intellect to address this issue.\nSquare's Near Term Risks\nDespite how positive I feel about Square's long-term positioning in the fintech space, I would be remiss if I did not alert you to several considerable near term risks. Square is hurtling towards challenging 2020 comps, with Q2 2020 being the first quarter of government disbursement checks. While I expect Square to post excellent Seller and Cash App numbers, growth will inherently moderate. Furthermore, Cash App benefited from Robinhood's well-publicized meltdown in Q1, as retail investors searched for more transparent and reliable trading platforms. This resulted in a pull-forward of user growth, and I do not believe this is sustainable or reflective of Cash App's long term user growth rates.\nFurthermore, Square's Q1 2021 shareholder letter was chock full of new operating expense forecasts for Q2. Square promised stock based compensation would rise materially in Q2 as new hirings occurred (in Q1 was $118 million), an increase in product development and G&A by $120 million, as well as an increase in transaction and loan losses by $40 million.\nA potential bright spot is Square's investment in DoorDash (DASH), which was a catalyst for Square's blowout Q4 2020 earnings. Based on a price of $168.5/share at the time of this writing, DoorDash's stock has appreciated 28.5% since Q1 end. That equates to a $65 million appreciation in Square's DoorDash equity ownership.\nEven still, netting out equity appreciation and Square's guided opex expansion, Square is guiding for roughly $110 million in additional Q2 spend. This is significant for a company that earned only $39 million last quarter, and Q1 was already benefiting from stimulus check disbursement and peak Bitcoin price and volatility.\nAnd that brings us to Bitcoin, of which Square owns 8,027 coins.\nBitcoin's price at the conclusion of Q1 (March 31, 2021) was $58,724. At the time of this writing, one Bitcoin is valued at $32,270, or a 45% drop from the prior quarter.\nThis is a loss of $259 million on Bitcoin alone in Q2, 2021.\nGulp. All in, these costs will result in an estimated $370 million drag on Square's Q2 earnings. Despite these facts, consensus estimates for Square indicate the investment community believes Square will beprofitablethis quarter, with 86% earnings revisions up over the past three months. I would be shocked if Square turned a profit this next quarter.\nAccordingly, if you are considering a position in Square, this might be a good indication to wait on the sidelines and see how the next earnings call plays out. As a long term Square shareholder I will continue to hold, as none of these issues impacts my long term bullish stance on Square. I believe Bitcoin will recover over the balance of 2021, and Square's investments in product development and talent acquisition are necessary for the battle ahead with legacy banks.\nConcluding Thoughts\nThe holy grail of the fintech space is low customer acquisition cost. Dorsey’s mastery of viral social media advertising generating low CAC's has been a primary catalyst of Square’s titanic growth rates. Square is just beginning to combine and integrate Cash App and Seller, which will manifest as increased user LTV and strengthening network effects.\nBetween Square cross-selling Cash App and Seller, solidifying a banking presence with Square banking and the development and implementation of much-needed crypto services, Square will be the apex presence in the fintech space, with no natural predators. I believe this not only possible, but likely. As the future fintech king, Square has a vast ocean of opportunity ahead, because in the multi-trillion financial services space, winner takes most.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":166,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":135023800,"gmtCreate":1622123148200,"gmtModify":1704179882316,"author":{"id":"3580898776597625","authorId":"3580898776597625","authorIdStr":"3580898776597625","name":"likaboss","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/027156c6b15571003ac371d19a653946","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580898776597625"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/135023800","repostId":"1154877560","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1154877560","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":1622122359,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1154877560?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-27 21:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Dow rises 200 points amid better-than-expected jobs data, Boeing shares jump","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1154877560","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"U.S. stocks climbed on Thursday as investors digested stronger-than-expected labor-market data.The D","content":"<p>U.S. stocks climbed on Thursday as investors digested stronger-than-expected labor-market data.</p><p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 200 points.

City-wide trials involving state-owned banks began last year, and there is also a pilot project for cross border use underway in Hong Kong.China is also involved in a separate project exploring CBDCs for cross-border payments, which HSBC has been involved in.While Beijing presses ahead with central bank digital currencies, it has stepped up efforts to curb usage of cryptocurrencies.China, which is central to HSBC's growth strategy, said last Tuesday that it had banned financial institutions and payment companies from providing services related to cryptocurrency transactions.Reuters reported in April that HSBC had banned customers in its online share trading platform from buying shares in Bitcoin-backed MicroStrategy, saying in a message to clients that it would not facilitate the buying or exchange of products related to virtual currencies.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":278,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":133675467,"gmtCreate":1621747508059,"gmtModify":1704362048142,"author":{"id":"3580898776597625","authorId":"3580898776597625","authorIdStr":"3580898776597625","name":"likaboss","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/027156c6b15571003ac371d19a653946","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580898776597625"},"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":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/133675467","repostId":"2137909732","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2137909732","pubTimestamp":1621605926,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2137909732?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-21 22:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"This high-yield strategy may be best for income as inflation becomes a threat","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2137909732","media":"MarketWatch","summary":"Kevin Loome of T.

The yield on 10-year U.S. Treasury notes  has increased to 1.65% from 0.93% at the end of last year.</p><p>Investors holding shares of bond funds will be nervous as interest rates rise because bond market values -- and the funds' share prices -- will go down.</p><p>\"When you look at the availability of fixed income and where interest rates are, the least-worst place to be is leveraged loans and high yield (bonds), because they have shorter term structures and the highest coupons,\" Loome said.</p><p>Why would junk bonds and non-investment-grade commercial loans be the best fixed-income space in a rising-rate environment? There are three reasons:</p><p>So a high-yield bond fund enjoys the advantages of an improving economy, because it means defaults are less likely. It enjoys pricing advantages, especially if its duration is very low, because the portfolio will turn over more quickly with freed-up money being invested in new bonds paying more.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>This high-yield strategy may be best for income as inflation becomes a threat</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\">\nThis high-yield strategy may be best for income as inflation becomes a threat\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-21 22:05 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.marketwatch.com/story/this-high-yield-strategy-may-be-best-for-income-as-inflation-becomes-a-threat-11621596885?mod=home-page><strong>MarketWatch</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Kevin Loome of T.

Republican Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana last month introduced a bill aimed at boosting transparency for investors in SPACs.</p>\n<p>SPACs are shell companies that raise money via a listing to acquire a private company with the purpose of taking it public, sidestepping a traditional initial public offering <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/IPO.UK\">$(IPO.UK)$</a> process.

As we all get ready to welcome summer days that more closely resemble our pre-pandemic lives, the markets are rotating away from the growth stocks it favored during lockdowns and quarantines, especially tech shares.</p>\n<p>For instance, the tech-heavy<b>NASDAQ 100</b>index is down more than 4% since the start of May. As a result, many retail investors are wondering which sectors and stocks might be do well in the remaining days of the quarter.</p>\n<p>The ongoing Covid-19 pandemic remains the most crucial market factor. Last year, that meant buying businesses that benefited from trends resulting from the pandemic and the lockdown (such as digitalization, health care, renewable energy or work-from-home). However, many of this year’s leading stocks are those most likely to benefit from a recovering economy and a ‘return to normalcy.’</p>\n<p>With that information, here are seven hot stocks to buy:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Align Technology</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>ALGN</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Ford Motor</b>(NYSE:<b><u>F</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Freeport-McMoRan</b>(NYSE:<b><u>FCX</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Hilton Worldwide</b>(NYSE:<b><u>HLT</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Stryker</b>(NYSE:<b><u>SYK</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Take-Two Interactive</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>TTWO</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Verizon Communications</b>(NYSE:<b><u>VZ</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Over the past 12 months, investors were able to find quality names at good value.

Yet, there are still plenty of robust investment opportunities out there, especially for long-term investors.</p>\n<p><b>Hot stocks to buy:</b>&nbsp;<b><b>Align Technology</b></b><b>(ALGN)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d1e5a088c59cdc7b46f9f8be1a68931e\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: rafapress / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p><b>52-week range:</b><b>$</b><b>195.56</b><b>– $</b><b>647.20</b></p>\n<p>Dental device groupAlign Technology is primarily known for its Invisalign system, an alternative to traditional braces to correct malocclusions, or misalignment of the teeth. You might know of this product as invisible dental braces. The company also manufactures scanners and offers computer-aided design (CAD) services to support the customization of these liners.</p>\n<p>Align Technologyreported record-setting first quarter resultson April 28. Total revenue was $894.8 million, up 62.4% year-over-year (YoY). On a non-GAAP basis, first quarter net income was $198.4 million, or $2.49 per diluted share. This represented a 242% increase from $57.9 million, or 73 cents per diluted share, recorded in the prior year quarter.Cash and equivalents stood at $1.1 billion.</p>\n<p>CEO Joe Hogan said:</p>\n<blockquote>\n “It’s remarkable to think about the pace of growth and adoption that we are experiencing worldwide, especially when considering it took 10 years to achieve our one millionth Invisalign patient milestone. Now we are adding one million new Invisalign patients in less than six months.”\n</blockquote>\n<p>The pandemic has meant many individuals had to postpone non-essential dental procedures. As our economy opens up further, more people are likely to start elective dental procedures, such as tooth straightening treatments. Meanwhile, the number of orthodontists and general practitioner dentists using theInvisalign system stateside is on the rise. Therefore, the company is likely to keep growing for many quarters to come. Its market capitalization (cap) stands at $43 billion.</p>\n<p>Year-to-date (YTD), the shares are up 3% and hit a record high in late April.

As we all get ready to welcome summer days that more closely resemble our pre-pandemic lives, the markets are rotating away from the growth stocks it favored during lockdowns and quarantines, especially tech shares.\nFor instance, the tech-heavyNASDAQ 100index is down more than 4% since the start of May. As a result, many retail investors are wondering which sectors and stocks might be do well in the remaining days of the quarter.\nThe ongoing Covid-19 pandemic remains the most crucial market factor. Last year, that meant buying businesses that benefited from trends resulting from the pandemic and the lockdown (such as digitalization, health care, renewable energy or work-from-home). However, many of this year’s leading stocks are those most likely to benefit from a recovering economy and a ‘return to normalcy.’\nWith that information, here are seven hot stocks to buy:\n\nAlign Technology(NASDAQ:ALGN)\nFord Motor(NYSE:F)\nFreeport-McMoRan(NYSE:FCX)\nHilton Worldwide(NYSE:HLT)\nStryker(NYSE:SYK)\nTake-Two Interactive(NASDAQ:TTWO)\nVerizon Communications(NYSE:VZ)\n\nOver the past 12 months, investors were able to find quality names at good value. Now, valuation levels are quite stretched. Yet, there are still plenty of robust investment opportunities out there, especially for long-term investors.\nHot stocks to buy: Align Technology(ALGN)Source: rafapress / Shutterstock.com\n52-week range:$195.56– $647.20\nDental device groupAlign Technology is primarily known for its Invisalign system, an alternative to traditional braces to correct malocclusions, or misalignment of the teeth. You might know of this product as invisible dental braces. The company also manufactures scanners and offers computer-aided design (CAD) services to support the customization of these liners.\nAlign Technologyreported record-setting first quarter resultson April 28. Total revenue was $894.8 million, up 62.4% year-over-year (YoY). On a non-GAAP basis, first quarter net income was $198.4 million, or $2.49 per diluted share. This represented a 242% increase from $57.9 million, or 73 cents per diluted share, recorded in the prior year quarter.Cash and equivalents stood at $1.1 billion.\nCEO Joe Hogan said:\n\n “It’s remarkable to think about the pace of growth and adoption that we are experiencing worldwide, especially when considering it took 10 years to achieve our one millionth Invisalign patient milestone. Now we are adding one million new Invisalign patients in less than six months.”\n\nThe pandemic has meant many individuals had to postpone non-essential dental procedures. As our economy opens up further, more people are likely to start elective dental procedures, such as tooth straightening treatments. Meanwhile, the number of orthodontists and general practitioner dentists using theInvisalign system stateside is on the rise. Therefore, the company is likely to keep growing for many quarters to come. Its market capitalization (cap) stands at $43 billion.\nYear-to-date (YTD), the shares are up 3% and hit a record high in late April. ALGN stock’s forward price-to-earnings (P/E) and price-to-sales (P/S) ratios are 65.36 and 16.88.\nShort-term profit-taking could put pressure on the shares. A potential decline toward $520 would improve the margin of safety.\nFord Motor(F)Source: Vitaliy Karimov / Shutterstock.com\n52-week range: $4.52 – $13.62\nLegacy automaker Ford Motorreported first quarter resultsin late April. Revenue increased 6% to $36.2 billion. GAAP net income was $3.3 billion, compared to net loss of $2 billion in the prior year quarter.Adjusted earnings per share came at 89 cents.\nCEO Jim Farley regards the Mustang Mach-E GT as Ford’s first serious push into theelectric vehicle(EV) space. Going forward, CFO John Lawler highlighted that semiconductor shortage, exacerbated by a recent fire at a supplier plant in Japan, would likely get worse before bottoming out in Q2. The auto industry, as well as many other sectors, are under pressure due to the chip shortage worldwide.\nYTD, Ford shares are up over 32%. Forward P/E and P/S ratios stand at 11.76 and 0.37, respectively. Since the earnings report, F stock has come under pressure. Any further decline toward $10 would improve the risk/return profile.\nIn addition to its legacy business, the new decade will likely see Ford gain gain market share in the growing EV industry. Buy-and-hold investor should put the shares on their radar.\nFreeport-McMoRan(FCX)Source: MICHAEL A JACKSON FILMS / Shutterstock.com\n52-week range:$7.80 – $44.50\nNext in line is one of the largest copper miners worldwide, the Phoenix,Arizona-based Freeport-McMoRan. Itssegments include refined copper products, copper in concentrate, gold, molybdenum, oil and other.\nRegularInvestorPlace.comreaders know well how copper has been under the spotlight in recent months. It is a critical commodity, seeing high demand as the economy opens up further. In addition, copper is used in infrastructure projects, such as construction, transportation and electrical networks. This major industrial metal is also used heavily in the transition to renewable energy. And EVs use up to four times more copper than traditional cars.\nFreeport-McMoRanreported first-quarter resultsin late April. Consolidated sales came in at $4.85 billion, a73.3% YoY increase from$2.80 billion in the prior year period. Adjusted net income totaled $756 million, or 51 cents per diluted share. As of March 31, the company had $4.58 billion in cash and equivalents.\nCEO Richard C. Adkerson said:\n\n “We are well positioned for long-term success as a leading producer of copper required for a growing global economy and accelerating demand from copper’s critical role in building infrastructure and the transition to clean energy.”\n\nSince the start of the year, FCX stock has returned over 60%. Forward P/E and P/S ratios are16.98and 3.97, respectively. Copper bulls could look to buy the dips in the shares.\nHilton Worldwide(HLT)Source: josefkubes / Shutterstock.com\n52-week range:$62.47– $132.69\nHilton Worldwide is one of the leading names in theleisure and hotel space, operating more than a million rooms across 18 brands. Needless to say, for over a year, hotel room bookings have taken a beating.\nHampton and Hilton are currently the group’s two largest brands by total room count at 28% and 21%, respectively. For hotels, revenue per available room is the key measure of top-line performance.\nHiltonreported first quarter resultson May 5.Total revenue fell more than 54% to $874 million. Revenue per available room declined about 38% from a year earlier. Net loss was $109 million.\nCEO Christopher J. Nassetta remarked, “While rising COVID-19 cases and tightened travel restrictions, particularly across Europe and our Asia Pacific region, weighed on demand in January and February, we saw meaningful improvement in March and April. We expect this positive momentum to continue as vaccines are more widely distributed and our customers feel safe traveling again.”\nSo far in 2021, HLT stock is up 9%. Forward P/E and P/S ratios are47.85and10.54respectively. Many investors see the shares as a bet on the post-pandemic recovery. Buy-and-hold investors should regard a decline toward the $110 level as an opportune point of entry into the shares.\nStryker (SYK)Source: Shutterstock\n52-week range: $171.75-268.04\nKalamazoo, Michigan-based Stryker manufactures medical equipment, consumable supplies and implantable devices. Its product portfolio includes hip and knee replacements, endoscopy systems, operating room equipment, embolic coils and spinal devices. As for many companies, the pandemic meant a disruption of business.\nStryker releasedQ1 2021 figuresin recent weeks. The company’s top line increased 10.2% YoY to $4 billion. Adjusted diluted EPS was $1.93, a 4.9% YoY increase. Quarter-end cash and equivalents stood at $2.2 billion.\nManagement cited, “As we recover from the pandemic, we continue to expect 2021 organic net sales growth to be in the range of 8% to 10% from 2019, as this is a more normal baseline given the variability throughout 2020, and now expect adjusted net earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $9.05 to $9.30.”\nYTD, Stryker stock has returned about 4% and hit a record high in late April. The current price supports a dividend yield of 0.99%. As life gets back to normal in the coming months, the company should see higher procedure volumes, translating into stronger revenue.\nFurthermore, our country is aging. Thus, its products are likely to be used by more individuals. However, the shares are richly valued. Forward P/Eand P/S ratios are 27.78 and 6.59.\nInterested investors would find better value around $240.\nTake-Two Interactive(TTWO)Source: Thomas Pajot / Shutterstock.com\n52-week range:$124.86– $214.91\nGame publisher Take-Two Interactive markets products through its subsidiaries Rockstar Games and 2K.

Lizzie Borden was acquitted of the ax murders of her father and stepmother. A fresh, one-pound beef steak cost 10 cents.\nPanic Of 1893:On May 5, 1893, the Dow Jones Index dropped more than 24% from 39.90 to 30.02. It would mark the worst intraday sell-off in U.S. history at the time, a record that would stand until 1929.\nThe Panic of 1893 was triggered in part by falling gold reserves in the U.S. Treasury. At the time, the U.S. was on the gold standard, meaning U.S. dollars could be redeemed for physical gold. When Treasury gold reserves dropped from $190 million in 1890 to $100 million by 1893, Americans grew concerned that the Treasury might run out of gold and began withdrawing bank notes and converting them to gold, placing extreme strain on the U.S. banking industry and credit markets.\nThe May 5 sell-off was triggered in part by the bankruptcy of Nation Cordage the day before.General Electric CompanyGE 0.34%shares dropped 28% on the day from $80 to $58.\nFortunately for investors, the Panic of 1893 didn’t last for long. By the end of the day, the market nearly completely recovered its losses. GE, for example, closed the session at $78.50.\nThe Panic of 1893 would ravage the U.S. economy, triggering a severe four-year depression. Roughly 14,000 U.S. businesses closed, and unemployment rose to 20%. The event would mark the worst economic downturn in U.S. history until the Great Depression began in 1929.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":296,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":106515331,"gmtCreate":1620133556623,"gmtModify":1704339079980,"author":{"id":"3580898776597625","authorId":"3580898776597625","authorIdStr":"3580898776597625","name":"likaboss","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/027156c6b15571003ac371d19a653946","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580898776597625"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/106515331","repostId":"1153680708","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1153680708","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":1620130776,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1153680708?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-04 20:19","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Toplines Before US Market Open on Tuesday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1153680708","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Nasdaq futures lead stock drop.Pfizer, CVS boost outlooks.Oil continues its upward climb touching the $65 per barrel level.Gold was modestly lower trading at $1,782 an ounce.

(Bloomberg)</span></p><p>High-yield bonds, also known as junk bonds, have been a popular class of investments in a yield-starved world.</p><p>But interest rates are still low, while inflation has been picking up, as the economy bounces back from its coronavirus swoon in 2020.</p><p>This means income-seekers might be afraid of a decline in bond prices as interest rates rise.</p><p>Kevin Loome of T. Rowe Price <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TROW\">$(TROW)$</a> makes the case that in a growing economy with inflation, high-yield bond portfolios can have advantages over investment-grade portfolios.</p><p>Loome is the portfolio manager for the T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund. He joined T. Rowe Price in 2017 as part of the firm's acquisition of the Henderson High Yield Opportunities Fund, which was originally established in May 2013. He is based in Philadelphia.</p><p><b>Fund outperformance</b></p><p>The T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund's institutional shares  are rated five stars by Morningstar. That's the investment research firm's highest rating. The fund's Investor share class  and Advisor share class  have four-star ratings.</p><p>Here are total returns (with dividends reinvested) through May 14 for all three classes for the fund against its benchmark, the ICE BofA High Yield Constrained Index, and two large exchange-traded funds -- the SPDR Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Bond ETF <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JNK\">$(JNK)$</a> and the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/EEME\">iShares</a> iBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond ETF <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HYG.UK\">$(HYG.UK)$</a>, which are both rated three stars by Morningstar.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3a25d42954658e7731b127ec7a3ba699\" tg-width=\"1259\" tg-height=\"591\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>The T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund's institutional shares have a 30-day SEC yield of 4.49% and a 30-day annualized dividend yield of 5.40%. For the Investor shares (TUHYX) the 30-day SEC yield is 4.34% and the 30-day annualized yield is 5.26%. For the Advisor shares, the 30-day SEC yield is 4.20% and the 30-day annualized yield is 5.08%.</p><p>For five years, the T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund's three share classes rank in the 11th percentile or higher in Morningstar's \"U.S. Fund High Yield Bond\" category. From the fund's inception as the Henderson High Yield Opportunities Fund (May 2013), the three share classes rank in the third percentile or higher.</p><p><b>Concentrated portfolio</b></p><p>During an interview, Loome said his fund has advantages over its benchmark index and against the above ETFs because its size enables it to run a more selective or concentrated portfolio.</p><p>The T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund has about $500 million in assets, although the total assets under management at T. Rowe Price under the same strategy managed by Loome is about $2.5 billion. That compares to an overall high-yield bond market of $1.5 trillion tracked by the ICE BofA High Yield Constrained Index. The SPDR Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Bond ETF has $10.3 in assets and the ishares iBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond ETF has $21.2 billion.</p><p>Loome said his portfolio is holding bonds issued by about 100 companies, and that its limit is 200 companies, but that \"the average mutual-fund manager in this space owns about 450.\"</p><p>Loome also invests in leveraged loans, which are non-investment-grade commercial loans. Among the fund's top holdings are bonds issued by Ford Motor Credit (a subsidiary of Ford Motor Co. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/F\">$(F)$</a>), Occidental Petroleum Corp. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OXY\">$(OXY)$</a> and American Airlines Group Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAL\">$(AAL)$</a>.</p><p>A high-yield bond fund is a play not only on more income than you can get from investment-grade bonds, but on credit risk. Higher default rates mean more opportunities to scoop up bonds at discounted prices, leading to gains when the bonds mature, provided the fund manager has gotten the credit analysis right.</p><p>Lower-rated or unrated issuers' bonds will trade at significant discounts during times of market turmoil, as they did early in the coronavirus pandemic last year. Then as interest rates plunged and asset values recovered, the junk bond market values followed suit, explaining the high double-digit returns for 2020.</p><p>But in a universe of about 1,000 high-yield issuers, \"If you are holding 600 of 1,000, you cannot argue that you are adding credit selection,\" Loome said.</p><p>So 2020 was an example of a year in which high-yield bond-fund mangers had \"a total return plus yield opportunity,\" Loomis said. In the current environment, with prices having recovered, \"the best you can have is an income opportunity,\" he said. But there are also price advantages for junk bonds in the current economic climate.</p><p><b>Advantages in a rising-rate environment</b></p><p>We're in the midst of a pullback for U.S. stocks, which may reflect investors' fears of inflation, in the wake of a massive increase in the money supply from Federal Reserve bond purchases and the federal government's stimulus. Consumer prices in the U.S. have risen 4.2% over the past year  -- the largest increase since 2008.</p><p>Short-term interest rates remain near zero because the Fed's target range for the federal funds rate is zero to 0.25%. But that may change if the Federal Open Market Committee believes inflation is likely to remain above its 2% long-term target. Meanwhile, the market has already reacted with a bond selloff that has pushed long-term yields higher. The yield on 10-year U.S. Treasury notes  has increased to 1.65% from 0.93% at the end of last year.</p><p>Investors holding shares of bond funds will be nervous as interest rates rise because bond market values -- and the funds' share prices -- will go down.</p><p>\"When you look at the availability of fixed income and where interest rates are, the least-worst place to be is leveraged loans and high yield (bonds), because they have shorter term structures and the highest coupons,\" Loome said.</p><p>Why would junk bonds and non-investment-grade commercial loans be the best fixed-income space in a rising-rate environment? There are three reasons:</p><p>So a high-yield bond fund enjoys the advantages of an improving economy, because it means defaults are less likely.

Rowe Price highlights the advantages of junk bonds in a growing economy with rising inflation.Ford Motor Credit is one of the larger issuers of high-yield bonds held by the T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund. (Bloomberg)High-yield bonds, also known as junk bonds, have been a popular class of investments in a yield-starved world.But interest rates are still low, while inflation has been picking up, as the economy bounces back from its coronavirus swoon in 2020.This means income-seekers might be afraid of a decline in bond prices as interest rates rise.Kevin Loome of T. Rowe Price $(TROW)$ makes the case that in a growing economy with inflation, high-yield bond portfolios can have advantages over investment-grade portfolios.Loome is the portfolio manager for the T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund. He joined T. Rowe Price in 2017 as part of the firm's acquisition of the Henderson High Yield Opportunities Fund, which was originally established in May 2013. He is based in Philadelphia.Fund outperformanceThe T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund's institutional shares  are rated five stars by Morningstar. That's the investment research firm's highest rating. The fund's Investor share class  and Advisor share class  have four-star ratings.Here are total returns (with dividends reinvested) through May 14 for all three classes for the fund against its benchmark, the ICE BofA High Yield Constrained Index, and two large exchange-traded funds -- the SPDR Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Bond ETF $(JNK)$ and the iShares iBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond ETF $(HYG.UK)$, which are both rated three stars by Morningstar.The T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund's institutional shares have a 30-day SEC yield of 4.49% and a 30-day annualized dividend yield of 5.40%. For the Investor shares (TUHYX) the 30-day SEC yield is 4.34% and the 30-day annualized yield is 5.26%. For the Advisor shares, the 30-day SEC yield is 4.20% and the 30-day annualized yield is 5.08%.For five years, the T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund's three share classes rank in the 11th percentile or higher in Morningstar's \"U.S. Fund High Yield Bond\" category. From the fund's inception as the Henderson High Yield Opportunities Fund (May 2013), the three share classes rank in the third percentile or higher.Concentrated portfolioDuring an interview, Loome said his fund has advantages over its benchmark index and against the above ETFs because its size enables it to run a more selective or concentrated portfolio.The T. Rowe Price U.S. High Yield Fund has about $500 million in assets, although the total assets under management at T. Rowe Price under the same strategy managed by Loome is about $2.5 billion. That compares to an overall high-yield bond market of $1.5 trillion tracked by the ICE BofA High Yield Constrained Index. The SPDR Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Bond ETF has $10.3 in assets and the ishares iBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond ETF has $21.2 billion.Loome said his portfolio is holding bonds issued by about 100 companies, and that its limit is 200 companies, but that \"the average mutual-fund manager in this space owns about 450.\"Loome also invests in leveraged loans, which are non-investment-grade commercial loans. Among the fund's top holdings are bonds issued by Ford Motor Credit (a subsidiary of Ford Motor Co. $(F)$), Occidental Petroleum Corp. $(OXY)$ and American Airlines Group Inc. $(AAL)$.A high-yield bond fund is a play not only on more income than you can get from investment-grade bonds, but on credit risk. Higher default rates mean more opportunities to scoop up bonds at discounted prices, leading to gains when the bonds mature, provided the fund manager has gotten the credit analysis right.Lower-rated or unrated issuers' bonds will trade at significant discounts during times of market turmoil, as they did early in the coronavirus pandemic last year. Then as interest rates plunged and asset values recovered, the junk bond market values followed suit, explaining the high double-digit returns for 2020.But in a universe of about 1,000 high-yield issuers, \"If you are holding 600 of 1,000, you cannot argue that you are adding credit selection,\" Loome said.So 2020 was an example of a year in which high-yield bond-fund mangers had \"a total return plus yield opportunity,\" Loomis said. In the current environment, with prices having recovered, \"the best you can have is an income opportunity,\" he said. But there are also price advantages for junk bonds in the current economic climate.Advantages in a rising-rate environmentWe're in the midst of a pullback for U.S. stocks, which may reflect investors' fears of inflation, in the wake of a massive increase in the money supply from Federal Reserve bond purchases and the federal government's stimulus. Consumer prices in the U.S. have risen 4.2% over the past year  -- the largest increase since 2008.Short-term interest rates remain near zero because the Fed's target range for the federal funds rate is zero to 0.25%. But that may change if the Federal Open Market Committee believes inflation is likely to remain above its 2% long-term target. Meanwhile, the market has already reacted with a bond selloff that has pushed long-term yields higher. The yield on 10-year U.S. Treasury notes  has increased to 1.65% from 0.93% at the end of last year.Investors holding shares of bond funds will be nervous as interest rates rise because bond market values -- and the funds' share prices -- will go down.\"When you look at the availability of fixed income and where interest rates are, the least-worst place to be is leveraged loans and high yield (bonds), because they have shorter term structures and the highest coupons,\" Loome said.Why would junk bonds and non-investment-grade commercial loans be the best fixed-income space in a rising-rate environment? There are three reasons:So a high-yield bond fund enjoys the advantages of an improving economy, because it means defaults are less likely. It enjoys pricing advantages, especially if its duration is very low, because the portfolio will turn over more quickly with freed-up money being invested in new bonds paying more.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":593,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":374814087,"gmtCreate":1619437578449,"gmtModify":1704723814922,"author":{"id":"3580898776597625","authorId":"3580898776597625","authorIdStr":"3580898776597625","name":"likaboss","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/027156c6b15571003ac371d19a653946","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580898776597625"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/374814087","repostId":"1184404050","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1184404050","pubTimestamp":1619319329,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1184404050?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-25 10:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What to watch in the markets this week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1184404050","media":"CNBC","summary":"The last week of April will be extremely busy for markets with a third of the S&P 500 reporting earnings, a Federal Reserve meeting, and new spending and tax proposals from the White House.Big Tech is a highlight of the earnings calendar, with Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook and Alphabet all releasing results.The Fed is not expected to take any action, but economists expect it to defend its policy to let inflation run hot.There is some key data including first-quarter gross domestic product a","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTSThe last week of April will be extremely busy for markets with a third of the S&P 500 reporting earnings, a Federal Reserve meeting, and new spending and tax proposals from the White House....</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/23/taxes-and-inflation-will-be-key-themes-for-markets-in-the-week-ahead.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The president addresses a joint session of Congress Wednesday evening.It’s a huge week for earnings with about a third of the S&P 500 reporting, including Big Tech names, such as Apple,Microsoft,Alphabet and Amazon.As many have already done, firms like Boeing, Ford,Caterpillar and McDonald’s, are likely to detail cost pressures they are facing from rising materials and transportation costs and supply chain disruptions.At the same time, the Fed is expected to defend its policy of letting inflation run hot, while assuring markets it sees the pick-up in prices as only temporary. The central bank meets on Tuesday and Wednesday.The central bank takes the main stage“I think the Fed would like not to be a feature next week, but the Fed will be forced from the background because of concerns about inflation,” said Diane Swonk, chief economist at Grant Thornton.The central bank is not expected to make any policy moves, but Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s press briefing following the meeting Wednesday will be closely watched.So far, the barrage of earnings news has been positive, with 86% of companies reporting earnings beats. Corporate profits are expected to be up about 33.9% for the first quarter, based on estimates and actual reports, according to Refinitiv. Revenues are about 9.9% higher.There is important inflation data Friday when the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge is reported.The personal consumption expenditure report is expected to show a 1.8% rise in core inflation, still below the Fed’s target of 2%. Other data releases include the first-quarter gross domestic product on Thursday, which is expected to have grown by 6.5%, according to Dow Jones.“I think the Fed has no urgency to shift monetary policy at this point,” said Ian Lyngen, head of U.S. rates strategy at BMO. “The Fed needs to acknowledge that the data is improving. We had a strong first quarter.”“The Fed needs to acknowledge that but at the same time they’re keeping extremely accommodative policy in place, so they’ll have to make a note to the fact that the easy policy is warranted,” he said.Lyngen said the Fed will likely point to continued concerns about the pandemic globally as a potential risk to the economic recovery.Powell is also expected to once more explain that the Fed will let inflation rise above its 2% target for a period of time before it raises rates so that the economy can have more time to heal. “It’s going to be a challenge for the Fed,” said Swonk.The base effects for the next several months will make inflation appear to have jumped sharply because of the comparison to a weak period last year. The consumer price index for April could be above 3%, compared to 2.6% last month, Swonk added.“The Fed is trying to let a lot more people get out onto the dance floor before it calls ‘last call,’” she said. “Really what Powell has been saying since day one is if we take care of people on the margins and bring them back into the labor force, the rest will take care of itself.”Stocks were slightly lower in the past week, and Treasury yields held at lower levels. The 10-year yield,which moves opposite price, was at 1.55% Friday.The S&P 500was down 0.1%, ending the week at 4,180, while Nasdaq Composite was down nearly 0.3% at 14,016. The Dow was off just shy of 0.5% at 34,043.Tax hike prospectsStocks were hit hard on Thursday when after a news report said that Biden is expected to propose a capital gains tax rate of 39.6% for people earning more than $1 million a year.Combined with the 3.8% net investment income tax, the new levy would more than double the long term capital gains rate of 20% or the richest Americans.Strategists said Biden is expected to propose raising the income tax rate for those earning more than $400,000.“I think a lot of people are starting to price in the risk there going to be a significant increase in both corporate and capital gains taxes,” said Lyngen.So far, companies have not provided much in the way of commentary on the proposed hike in corporate taxes to 28% from 21% but they have been talking about other costs.David Bianco, chief investment strategist for the Americas at DWS, said he expects larger companies will do better dealing with supply chain constraints than smaller ones. Big Tech is also likely to fare better during the semiconductor shortage than auto makers, which have already announced production shutdowns, he said.“Next week is tech week. I think we’re going to get down on our knees and just be in awe of their business models and their ability to grow at a behemoth scale,” Bianco said.He said he’s not in favor of Wall Street’s popular trade into cyclicals and out of growth. He still favors growth.“We’re overweight equities really because we’re concerned about rising interest rates,” Bianco said. “I’m not bullish in that I expect the market to rise that much from here.”“We stuck with growth and dug deeper into bond substitutes, utilities, staples, real estate,” he said, adding he is underweight industrials, energy and materials. “Energy is doomed. It’s being nationalized via regulation. I do like industrials, they are well-run companies, but I do think infrastructure spending expectations for classic infrastructure are too high.”He also said industrials are good businesses, but the stocks have become overvalued.Bianco said he likes big box stores, but smaller retailers are facing big challenges that were already impacting them prior to Covid. He also finds small biotech firms attractive.“I like healthcare stocks. Those valuations are reasonable. People have been paranoid about politicians beating on them since 1992.

Its Mac and iPad sales&nbsp;did&nbsp;better, with its computers up 70.1% and iPad&nbsp;sales&nbsp;growing nearly 79% on an annual basis.</p><p>Apple said it would increase its dividend by 7%&nbsp;to $0.22 per share&nbsp;and authorized $90 billion in share buybacks, which is significantly higher than last year’s $50 billion outlay&nbsp;and 2019′s $75 billion.</p><p>Here’s how Apple did versus Refinitiv estimates:</p><ul><li><b>EPS</b>:&nbsp;$1.40&nbsp;vs. $0.99 estimated</li><li><b>Revenue</b>:&nbsp;$89.58&nbsp;billion&nbsp;vs. $77.36&nbsp;billion&nbsp;estimated, up 53.7% year-over-year</li><li><b>iPhone revenue</b>:&nbsp;$47.94 billion&nbsp;vs. $41.43&nbsp;billion&nbsp;estimated, up&nbsp;65.5% year-over-year</li><li><b>Services revenue</b>:&nbsp;$16.90 billion&nbsp;vs. $15.57&nbsp;billion&nbsp;estimated, up 26.7% year over&nbsp;year</li><li><b>Other Products revenue</b>:&nbsp;$7.83&nbsp;billion&nbsp;vs. $7.79&nbsp;billion&nbsp;estimated,&nbsp;up 24%&nbsp;year-over-year</li><li><b>Mac revenue</b>:&nbsp;$9.10&nbsp;billion&nbsp;vs. $6.86&nbsp;billion&nbsp;estimated, up 70.1% year-over-year</li><li><b>iPad revenue</b>:&nbsp;$7.80 billion&nbsp;vs. $5.58&nbsp;billion&nbsp;estimated, up 78.9% year-over-year</li><li><b>Gross margin</b>:&nbsp;42.5% vs. 39.8%&nbsp;estimated</li></ul><p>Apple did not issue official guidance for what it expects in the quarter ending in June. It hasn’t provided revenue&nbsp;guidance since the start of the pandemic, citing uncertainty.&nbsp;This is Apple’s second quarter in a row with double-digit growth in all product categories.&nbsp;Apple CFO Luca Maestri told analysts that the company expects June quarter revenue to rise by double digits year-over-year, although it faces some supply shortages due to the worldwide chip shortage.</p><p>Apple has said in the past months that its business has been boosted by the pandemic as consumers&nbsp;and businesses&nbsp;bought&nbsp;computers&nbsp;to work and entertain themselves while at home. But Apple’s strong results in the quarter suggest that the trend may persist as more economies&nbsp;open up.</p><p>Or, as Apple CEO Tim Cook said in a statement: “This quarter reflects both the enduring ways our products have helped our users meet this&nbsp;moment in their own lives, as well as the optimism consumers seem to feel about better days&nbsp;ahead for all of us.”</p><p>Mac sales were up 70%, and Cook said that the result was “fueled by” the company’s introduction of its Mac&nbsp;laptops&nbsp;that used its own M1 chips&nbsp;for longer battery life, instead of processors sold by&nbsp;Intel.&nbsp;iPad sales were up&nbsp;nearly 79% year-over-year.</p><p>Neither of those&nbsp;results&nbsp;include iPad Pro or iMac models the company announced in March, which are expected to drive additional demand.</p><p>“We’re seeing strong first-time buyers on the Mac&nbsp;…&nbsp;it continues to run just south of 50%,” Cook told CNBC’s Josh Lipton. “And, in China, it’s even higher than that&nbsp;…&nbsp;it’s more around two-thirds. And that speaks to people preferring to work on the Mac.”</p><p>Apple’s iPhone also reported strong results this quarter, quelling fears that the current annual cycle could slow down. Last year, Apple released iPhones with a new exterior design and 5G support, which many investors believed could prompt a major upgrade cycle, which this quarter’s results indicate.</p><p>In greater China, which includes the mainland, Hong Kong, and Taiwan,&nbsp;Apple’s revenue increased over&nbsp;87% year-over-year to $17.73 billion, although the comparison is to a quarter last year in which China was largely shut down in the early days of the pandemic.&nbsp;Every other geographical category, including the Americas and Europe, were also up on an annual basis.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/37a8b45c92174e3c9ab224d9a85f5e2d\" tg-width=\"1910\" tg-height=\"1114\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Apple’s&nbsp;high-margin&nbsp;services business, including iCloud, App Store, and subscriptions like Apple Music, also showed 26.7% growth.</p><p>One metric that Apple uses to show the growth in services is the number of subscriptions it has, which not only include its own subscriptions like Apple One, but also subscriptions through its App Store.</p><p>“We now have over 660 million paid subscriptions across the services on the platform, and that’s up 40 million from the previous quarter, which is an acceleration from 35 million,” Cook told CNBC.</p><p>However, Apple’s App Store has been challenged by lawmakers and companies that say it costs too much and has too much power. A closely-watched trial with Fortnite maker Epic Games over App Store policies kicks off next week.</p><p>“The App Store has been an economic miracle. Last year, the estimates are that there was over a half a trillion dollars of economic activity because of the store. And, so, this has been just an economic gamechanger for not only the United States, but several countries around the world. And, we’re going to go in and tell our story. And we’ll see where it goes.

In&nbsp;the prior quarter&nbsp;Azure revenue grew 50%. Microsoft does not disclose Azure revenue in dollars.</p>\n<p>With respect to guidance, Microsoft is expecting $43.6 billion to $44.5 billion in revenue in the fiscal fourth quarter, said Amy Hood, Microsoft’s finance chief, on a conference call with analysts. At the middle of the range that would represent 16% growth, more than the $42.98 billion consensus estimate among analysts polled by Refinitiv.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/04deaac8d015743ca14f06c8b77bd26e\" tg-width=\"1910\" tg-height=\"1549\"></p>\n<p>Microsoft’s Intelligent Cloud segment delivered $15.12 billion in revenue in the fiscal third quarter. That was up 23% year over year and above the FactSet consensus estimate of $14.92 billion. Intelligent Cloud contains Azure, Windows Server, SQL Server, Visual Studio, GitHub and Enterprise Services.</p>\n<p>The Productivity and Business Processes segment, containing Office, Dynamics and LinkedIn, contributed $13.55 billion in revenue, up 15% and more than the $13.49 billion FactSet consensus. The Teams chat and calling app reached 145 million daily active users, up from&nbsp;115 million&nbsp;in October, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said on the call.</p>\n<p>The company’s More Personal Computing unit, which includes Windows, gaming, devices and search, came up with $13.04 billion in revenue. That was up almost 19% and higher than the $12.55 billion consensus. Technology research company Gartner&nbsp;estimated&nbsp;earlier this month that PC manufacturers shipped nearly 70 million units in the quarter, 32% more than in the year-ago quarter, the fastest growth since Gartner started tracking the PC market in 2000.</p>\n<p>That benefits Microsoft’s sales of Windows licenses to PC makers, which were up 10%. There are now over 1.3 billion monthly active devices running the Windows 10 operating system, Nadella said.</p>\n<p>The outcome was greater than Microsoft itself had forecast. In January, Hood called for Windows license revenue from device makers to be up in the low single digits.</p>\n<p>The PC market endured “significant ongoing constraints in the supply chain,” Hood said on Tuesday.</p>\n<p>At the same time, the gross margin for Microsoft’s broad Commercial Cloud category of products — including Azure, commercial subscriptions to the Office 365 productivity bundle, cloud-based Dynamics 365 enterprise applications and commercial parts of LinkedIn — narrowed to 70% from 71%. The number is important to investors who want to see that Microsoft can continue to make Azure more profitable.</p>\n<p>The operating margin for the Intelligent Cloud segment that includes Azure also narrowed to 42.5% from about 44.5%.

As we all get ready to welcome summer days that more closely resemble our pre-pandemic lives, the markets are rotating away from the growth stocks it favored during lockdowns and quarantines, especially tech shares.</p>\n<p>For instance, the tech-heavy<b>NASDAQ 100</b>index is down more than 4% since the start of May.

Last year, that meant buying businesses that benefited from trends resulting from the pandemic and the lockdown (such as digitalization, health care, renewable energy or work-from-home).

For as much as I know about balance sheets and technical analysis, it is the CEO that I am most critical and analytical about.</p>\n<p>This is reflected in the types of companies I invest in and write about. Opendoor (OPEN), SoFi (SOFI), Zillow (Z) and Palantir (PLTR) are each led by visionary CEO’s, with colorful histories who make massive contributions to their industries. In my opinion, the story behind these disruptive companies and the CEOs who lead them can inform investment decisions as surely as an earnings report.</p>\n<p>Writing this article began no differently. Jack Dorsey, the $15 Billion dollar man who leads both Square (SQ) and Twitter (TWTR), is one of Wall Street’s biggest eccentricities. He has a penchant for meditating, facial hair, intermittent fasting, 80+ minute morning walks and wields an invisible armor that has allowed him to endure a decade of investors ranting he over-focuses on Square to the detriment of Twitter (sorry Twitter longs).</p>\n<p>Today, we will dive into Square – its competitive advantages over neo-banking peers and incumbents alike, Square's banking opportunity, as well as an update on Square’s cryptocurrency initiatives. Square is the best positioned company in the digital wallet space, and Jack's advertising expertise gained by founding and running Twitter has allowed Square to deploy viral marketing campaigns to fuel absurd growth in Cash App. Cash App's success is rivaled only by Square's Seller ecosystem, and these two businesses are just beginning to combine, interact and compound.</p>\n<p>We're going to talk about all of this here. But first, I want to share a story about how a young Square, in its first years as a company, suffered a direct Amazon (AMZN) salvo and somehow emerged stronger.</p>\n<p><b>How Square Survived An Amazon Siege</b></p>\n<p>Bookstores, brick and mortal retail, supermarkets, meal-kits, enterprise cloud, the list of industries Amazon has bled out and internalized stretches on.</p>\n<p>Amazon has earned the moniker, “The Death Star.”Bought and paid for it. Over the past two decades no other company has so pervasively and efficiently disrupted legacy industries.</p>\n<p>As a brief anecdote, in his early days at Amazon, CEO and founder Jeff Bezos was always searching for ways to eliminate company overhead. In his mind, the less Amazon spent on operations, the more savings could be passed on to Amazon customers.</p>\n<p>In this vein, instead of purchasing a fancy desk for his office, Bezos built his own out of a recycled door and some two by fours. This practice caught on, and Amazon's employees participated broadly by building their own desks out of wooden doors.</p>\n<p>The wooden door initiative served two purposes: 1) it was a cultural commitment to humility, from the top down, and 2) it emphasized the importance of spending money only on initiatives that improve the customer experience.</p>\n<p>There's a picture of Bezos working away on his door deskhere. I’m tempted to frame this photograph, and I probably would if my fiancé would let me. Just confirmed, she says no. But I love this combined concept of customer obsession and frugality.</p>\n<p>From a capital allocation, leadership, and customer-centric perspective, it’s easy to look back now and recognize how Amazon became the goliath it is today. Bezos may not look it, but he is a ruthless, patient CEO whose basilisk gaze you pray doesn’t fall on your industry.</p>\n<p>So when Amazon turned its cannons on a private, relatively small payment processing company named Square in 2014, you didn’t have to be a rocket scientist to know who would be left standing after the dust settled.</p>\n<p>But if you assumed it would be Amazon, you would have been wrong.</p>\n<p>“Amazon Register” was built to kill Square. It undercut Square’s pricing by 30% and offered live customer service (which Square did not have). Even by Square co-founderJim McKelvey’s own admission, Amazon’s product worked better than Square’s ‘dongle’ did (I hate that word as much as you do and I promise to not use it again).</p>\n<p>But Square survived. Thrived in fact. Square continued to execute along the same playbook, launched new features like Square Capital to the innovation stack, and grew roughly 10% week over week that year. Amazon, for all its strength, could not compete with Square in offerings, and small businesses were understandably skeptical about partnering with Amazon.</p>\n<p>After the year-long siege, on October 30, 2015, Amazon gracefully bowed out, announcing they were shuttering Amazon Register. When the hardware was officially discontinued in early 2016, Amazon mailed a white Square card reader to each of its business customers.</p>\n<p>And the rest is history.</p>\n<p>Since Square’s IPO in 2015, the company has continued to fend off fearsome competitors such as Intuit (INTU), PayPal (PYPL), and Shopify (SHOP), not to mention the largest banking systems in the world. Square has ridden a wave of timely and engaging financial innovations to a market cap of $107 Billion at the time of this writing. Cash App’s growth has been an absolute rocket ship, and Dorsey is delivering on the long term vision of connecting Seller and Cash App to one, unified ecosystem.</p>\n<p><b>Square’s Moat: Customer Acquisition Cost</b></p>\n<p>In the banking space, the company that optimizes lifetime value [LTV] vs customer acquisition cost [CAC] is the company that wins.</p>\n<p>Read that again, write it down, bold it and underline it.</p>\n<p>This is not supernatural. Behind the B-school terminology is a basic principle of unit economics: make more from a customer than it costs to acquire them, and do it better than competitors.</p>\n<p>Of all the participants in the banking ecosystem, I believe Square has the lowest customer acquisition costs. This is a major part of the Dorsey value proposition, and misunderstood.</p>\n<p>As founder and CEO of both Square and Twitter, Dorsey has been able to leverage his incredibly nuanced understanding of viral communication to inform viral marketing. Starting in 2017, Twitter mediated campaigns like #CashAppFriday, in which Square offers thousands of dollars to Twitter users who post their Cash App handle, has drawn massive numbers of comments, retweets and Cash App downloads. Partnerships with engaging content developers like the Joe Rogan Experience, Lex Fridmen, Burger King, Travis Scott and Lil B have continued to drive brand awareness. This brand awareness is critical, especially in a crowded digital banking space.According to this study, 82% of app or internet searchers choose a familiar brand for the first click.</p>\n<p>As an example of viral and opportunistic marketing, in 2018 a prominent content creator on TikTok, “Shiggy” released a SoundCloud song about Cash App. After striking a sponsorship deal with Shiggy in 2019, the Cash App marketing team edited a shorter version of the single, and reached out to TikTok influencers with the below message:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Create a TikTok with your best interpretation of the catchy song in everyday situations. And use hashtag #CashAppThatMoney.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Source:Business Insider</p>\n<p>To date, the Shiggy Cash App song has beenused in 9,138 videos. Prominent TikTok influencers such as Addison Rae (81+ million followers) have leveraged their massive platforms to drive hundreds of millions of views.</p>\n<p>Look at the below tweet I found from Cash App on May 7thof this year. By leveraging Cash App’s 1.2 million Twitter followers, $5k in marketing spend and goodwill resulted in 17.4k comments and 26.7k retweets. Those retweets create a reverberation in the Twitter ecosystem and result in a geometric increase in captive eyeballs. Now I am not a TikTok'er and I started a Twitter account within the past month, but it's important to appreciate Square's masterful use of these millennial and Gen Z driven platforms. Assuming roughly one in 50 retweeting individuals downloads CashApp, Square’s CAC is &lt; $10 dollars.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dee784888614bff23c414cecae7e5f7e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"171\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source:CashApp Twitter</p>\n<p>The takehome point from this type of marketing? Cash App is able to climb a more vertical slope of user acquisition at lower cost than challenger and incumbent banks alike.</p>\n<p>ARK Invest estimatesincumbent banks spend an average of $925 dollars on customer acquisition. On Square’s most recent earning’s call, management confirmed their CAC was less than $5 dollars. Said another way, Square’s marketing and customer acquisition is 18,500% higher than your retail bank.</p>\n<p>So how has Square flown under the radar of the massive U.S. banking industry?</p>\n<p>Square’s strategy to largely target unbanked or “under-banked” individuals allowed them to build a platform without drawing the attention of Wells Fargo (WFC), Bank of America (BAC), and JPMorgan Chase (JPM). But Square is now one of the top ten largest ‘banks’ in the United States by market cap, and is expanding its total addressable market to those who are already clients of traditional banks.</p>\n<p>This strategy of finding an underserved population, providing value to those customers, then broadening offerings and selling upmarket is in Square’s DNA. They followed the same playbook on the Seller side, initially targeting small businesses doing less than $100k in GMV, but today Square's fastest growing segment is mid- to large-size businesses.</p>\n<p>Square’s peer Venmo cannot flex the same marketing efficiencies as Cash App. Cash App continues to hold the crown as the most downloaded finance application on Apple’s App Store (AAPL) as well as Google Play Store (GOOG), more popular than Venmo, PayPal Cash, and Robinhood (RBNHD). Furthermore, Square has a full 10X more followers than Venmo on Twitter. These advantages manifest as Square enjoying a healthy gap over Venmo in search as well.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f0ee1067df9e647949f72f4d772af186\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"172\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source:Similarweb</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/df7398ef5a030917f6de3ac8d13fe5a9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"394\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source: I made this with help fromGoogle Trends</p>\n<p>Perhaps most importantly, although Venmo has more monthly active users (MAU’s), Square is better at<i>monetizing</i>these users.According to RBC Capital analyst DanielPerlin, Venmo garners roughly $12 from each MAU, whereas Cash App brings in $54. And due to industry low CAC, Cash App gets the extra benefit of being more profitable as well.</p>\n<p>While there is much more that can be said about Square and PayPal’s competition in the challenger banking space, it is this customer acquisition and long term value that underlies why I prefer holding shares of Square over PayPal.</p>\n<p>Square is just doing the important things better than Venmo. Part of this is Dorsey's social media advantages, but I believe much if it has to do with the fact that Venmo was acquired by PayPal, whereas Square remains independent. The innovative connective tissue which once held Venmo together and fostered bold ideas and big bets was absorbed into the massive PayPal machine, and lost.</p>\n<p>As a SoFi shareholder and bull, I was disappointed to learn in my research that SoFi has been unable thus far to creatively turn its Twitter presence into a customer acquisition engine. Despite 120k+ followers, the SoFi Twitter page has relatively low engagement and no promotional activities reminiscent of #CashAppFriday. SoFi CEO Anthony Noto coincidentally was formerly COO of Twitter when #CashAppFriday first launched, and I believe he will be able to leverage this experience into a more engaging social media presence. Fortunately for SoFi, their CAC's are low (~$40) with much higher LTV's than Cash App as of now (roughly double, close to $2,000 with cross selling into lending).</p>\n<p><b>Square Financial Services: A Bank For All Mankind</b></p>\n<p>On March 1, 2021, Square announced its banking service had begun operations after completing the charter approval process with the FDIC. This is a massive catalyst for Square’s business, and positions them squarely against the glacially slow incumbent banks.</p>\n<p>I recently wrote adeep dive on SoFi(SOFI), which is also pursuing a bank charter, and discussed the massive benefits these fintech companies inherit by building banking infrastructure. With this banking platform, Square will be able to make loans using deposits on its platform, originate loans to small businesses, and improve profitability.</p>\n<p>About a month ago, an iOS developer namedSteve Moser discovered codeon a Square software update revealing new products “Square Checking” and “Square Savings.” Based on the code, Square is planning to offer 0.5% interest rates for its savings accounts through 2021, a full 8+ times higher than thenational savings account average.</p>\n<p>Square's banking play is a continuation of the playbook that led them to purchase Credit Karma’s tax preparation business in 2020. At the time of the acquisition, roughly 2 million Americans used Karma to file returns, with an average refund of $2k. Those tax returns were then deposited in Cash App accounts, where fintech magic happens. Higher account deposits can be loaned out, drive increased transaction volume, and ultimately elevate the LTV of the user.</p>\n<p>SoFi is doing something similar with its $3k account minimums for SoFi IPO Invest, and Square’s banking venture has the opportunity to both elevate account balances and steal additional customers from incumbent banks.</p>\n<p>And the incumbent banks are terrified. See what Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan and perhaps the most famous banker in the world has said about Square over the years.</p>\n<blockquote>\n What does the small business want? They wanted to process cash and checks and debit on the same machine. We didn’t give them that opportunity. Square did.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Jamie Dimon, CEO, JP Morgan, Investor Day, 2019</p>\n<p>And more recently when asked if JPM should be scared of challenger banks like Square:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Absolutely we should be scared s---less about that. We’ve just got to get quicker, better, faster.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Jamie Dimon, CEO, JP Morgan, Investor Day, January, 2021</p>\n<p>Most importantly, adding banking services multiplies the LTV of Square's customers, and is a major step towards Cash App becoming a financial super app. The single biggest money maker for individual banking customers is checking and savings accounts. According to an ARK Invest white paper, LTV per retail banking customer is roughly $3,600, of which a full 25%, or $900 is checking and savings accounts.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2bdfa91840a4611caf6808ad0c4bb076\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"367\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Source: ARK Invest, with annotations from me:Cash App vs Venmo</p>\n<p>You can breathlessly hype Square's Bitcoin opportunities and wax poetic about Cash App's booming Bitcoin revenue, but the meat and potatoes is here, right in front of us: Square banking. The weapon Square will use to dethrone the incumbent banks is slowly being drawn from its sheath.</p>\n<p><b>Jack Dorsey's Bitcoin Obsession</b></p>\n<p>For those of you who don't follow Dorsey on Twitter or read updates about the Bitcoin (BTC-USD) 2021 Convention, believe me when I say Jack is<i>convicted</i>about the role Bitcoin will play in the Internet’s future.</p>\n<blockquote>\n If I were not at Square or Twitter, I would be working on bitcoin. If bitcoin needed more help than Square or Twitter, I would leave them for bitcoin.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Jack Dorsey, CEO Square, CEO Twitter,Bitcoin 2021 Conference</p>\n<p>At the conference Dorsey announced Square is considering releasing a hardware Bitcoin wallet. For those unfamiliar, when you purchase cryptocurrency on an exchange, the vast majority of the time it is not actually<i>yours</i>, but is in fact an IOU. If you’ve heard the expression, “Not your keys, not your coins,” this is referring directly to this issue. If you don’t have a hardware wallet with a password only you have access to, then the coins don’t truly belong to you.</p>\n<p>Regarding Square's involvement inBitcoin hardware wallets, color me unimpressed. I was surprised to see Square’s stock pop on that news. I can’t really see a situation where a company doing $20+ Billion a year in sales like Square gets meaningful top or bottom line contribution from a glorified flash drive. It’s just not going to move the needle.</p>\n<p>To be honest, cryptocurrency is the biggest potential blind spot I see right now in Dorsey’s execution. Don’t get me wrong, as a Square shareholder I will<i>gladly accept a</i>1,047% increase year over year in Bitcoin revenue to $3.51 B as of Q1 2021. But Dorsey refusing to allow any other coins on the Cash App platform is, in my opinion, the wrong choice for Square and cryptocurrency in general. I have already heard several friends comment they see no role for Cash App because its “crypto features” only allow for Bitcoin trading.</p>\n<p>“That’s why we don’t deal with any other ‘currencies’ or ‘coins’ because we’re so focused on making bitcoin the native currency for the internet,”</p>\n<p>-Jack Dorsey, CEO Square</p>\n<p>Effectively, Dorsey is limiting features for Square’s Cash App users to focus all attention on Bitcoin. But that’s not really how cryptocurrency works – over the past several years the market share of Bitcoin has declined slightly as new platforms have generated interest and ease of investing in alternative coins. Diversity of coin options coincided with Bitcoin reaching its highest market capitalization of all time. I believe there is space for more than one coin in the future, and am personally invested in Ethereum (ETH-USD) due to the utility it offers as the nexus of Internet 3.0.</p>\n<p>I would love to see Dorsey developing revenue-driving crypto services such as decentralized finance for Square. I said this for SoFi, and I will say it again for Square: a staking system, by which users are granted upsize interest for holding Bitcoin in their Cash App, for example, would dramatically elevate Cash App’s value proposition. This is something for all challenger banks to explore and invest in, and it is a game changer.</p>\n<p>All that said, Square has a history of surprising analysts and investors with clever solutions that delight customers. Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency landscape<i>needs</i>innovation and development, and Square is well capitalized in cash and intellect to address this issue.</p>\n<p><b>Square's Near Term Risks</b></p>\n<p>Despite how positive I feel about Square's long-term positioning in the fintech space, I would be remiss if I did not alert you to several considerable near term risks. Square is hurtling towards challenging 2020 comps, with Q2 2020 being the first quarter of government disbursement checks. While I expect Square to post excellent Seller and Cash App numbers, growth will inherently moderate. Furthermore, Cash App benefited from Robinhood's well-publicized meltdown in Q1, as retail investors searched for more transparent and reliable trading platforms. This resulted in a pull-forward of user growth, and I do not believe this is sustainable or reflective of Cash App's long term user growth rates.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, Square's Q1 2021 shareholder letter was chock full of new operating expense forecasts for Q2. Square promised stock based compensation would rise materially in Q2 as new hirings occurred (in Q1 was $118 million), an increase in product development and G&amp;A by $120 million, as well as an increase in transaction and loan losses by $40 million.</p>\n<p>A potential bright spot is Square's investment in DoorDash (DASH), which was a catalyst for Square's blowout Q4 2020 earnings. Based on a price of $168.5/share at the time of this writing, DoorDash's stock has appreciated 28.5% since Q1 end. That equates to a $65 million appreciation in Square's DoorDash equity ownership.</p>\n<p>Even still, netting out equity appreciation and Square's guided opex expansion, Square is guiding for roughly $110 million in additional Q2 spend. This is significant for a company that earned only $39 million last quarter, and Q1 was already benefiting from stimulus check disbursement and peak Bitcoin price and volatility.</p>\n<p>And that brings us to Bitcoin, of which Square owns 8,027 coins.</p>\n<p>Bitcoin's price at the conclusion of Q1 (March 31, 2021) was $58,724. At the time of this writing, one Bitcoin is valued at $32,270, or a 45% drop from the prior quarter.</p>\n<p><b>This is a loss of $259 million on Bitcoin alone in Q2, 2021.</b></p>\n<p>Gulp. All in, these costs will result in an estimated $370 million drag on Square's Q2 earnings. Despite these facts, consensus estimates for Square indicate the investment community believes Square will be<i>profitable</i>this quarter, with 86% earnings revisions up over the past three months. I would be shocked if Square turned a profit this next quarter.</p>\n<p>Accordingly, if you are considering a position in Square, this might be a good indication to wait on the sidelines and see how the next earnings call plays out. As a long term Square shareholder I will continue to hold, as none of these issues impacts my long term bullish stance on Square. I believe Bitcoin will recover over the balance of 2021, and Square's investments in product development and talent acquisition are necessary for the battle ahead with legacy banks.</p>\n<p><b>Concluding Thoughts</b></p>\n<p>The holy grail of the fintech space is low customer acquisition cost. Dorsey’s mastery of viral social media advertising generating low CAC's has been a primary catalyst of Square’s titanic growth rates. Square is just beginning to combine and integrate Cash App and Seller, which will manifest as increased user LTV and strengthening network effects.</p>\n<p>Between Square cross-selling Cash App and Seller, solidifying a banking presence with Square banking and the development and implementation of much-needed crypto services, Square will be the apex presence in the fintech space, with no natural predators. I believe this not only possible, but likely.

Square’s mastery of viral marketing results in the lowest CAC in the digital wallet space. This is a moat.\nSquare is building massive ecosystems in Cash App and Seller that are just beginning to overlap, which results in massive cross-selling opportunities and network effects.\nSquare banking is a major catalyst that has not received sufficient attention from analysts or investors.\nSquare has spent an entire year building as-of-yet unannounced Square Checking and Square Banking products. This is a shot across the bow at incumbent banks, and indicates Square is ready for a higher level of fintech warfare.\nSquare’s future relationship with crypto remains undercooked, and Dorsey’s overfocus on Bitcoin to the exclusion of alternative coins is an uncommon mistake.\n\nSquare's Investment Thesis\nWhen I begin researching a company for an article, I always start with the CEO. For as much as I know about balance sheets and technical analysis, it is the CEO that I am most critical and analytical about.\nThis is reflected in the types of companies I invest in and write about. Opendoor (OPEN), SoFi (SOFI), Zillow (Z) and Palantir (PLTR) are each led by visionary CEO’s, with colorful histories who make massive contributions to their industries. In my opinion, the story behind these disruptive companies and the CEOs who lead them can inform investment decisions as surely as an earnings report.\nWriting this article began no differently. Jack Dorsey, the $15 Billion dollar man who leads both Square (SQ) and Twitter (TWTR), is one of Wall Street’s biggest eccentricities. He has a penchant for meditating, facial hair, intermittent fasting, 80+ minute morning walks and wields an invisible armor that has allowed him to endure a decade of investors ranting he over-focuses on Square to the detriment of Twitter (sorry Twitter longs).\nToday, we will dive into Square – its competitive advantages over neo-banking peers and incumbents alike, Square's banking opportunity, as well as an update on Square’s cryptocurrency initiatives. Square is the best positioned company in the digital wallet space, and Jack's advertising expertise gained by founding and running Twitter has allowed Square to deploy viral marketing campaigns to fuel absurd growth in Cash App. Cash App's success is rivaled only by Square's Seller ecosystem, and these two businesses are just beginning to combine, interact and compound.\nWe're going to talk about all of this here. But first, I want to share a story about how a young Square, in its first years as a company, suffered a direct Amazon (AMZN) salvo and somehow emerged stronger.\nHow Square Survived An Amazon Siege\nBookstores, brick and mortal retail, supermarkets, meal-kits, enterprise cloud, the list of industries Amazon has bled out and internalized stretches on.\nAmazon has earned the moniker, “The Death Star.”Bought and paid for it. Over the past two decades no other company has so pervasively and efficiently disrupted legacy industries.\nAs a brief anecdote, in his early days at Amazon, CEO and founder Jeff Bezos was always searching for ways to eliminate company overhead. In his mind, the less Amazon spent on operations, the more savings could be passed on to Amazon customers.\nIn this vein, instead of purchasing a fancy desk for his office, Bezos built his own out of a recycled door and some two by fours. This practice caught on, and Amazon's employees participated broadly by building their own desks out of wooden doors.\nThe wooden door initiative served two purposes: 1) it was a cultural commitment to humility, from the top down, and 2) it emphasized the importance of spending money only on initiatives that improve the customer experience.\nThere's a picture of Bezos working away on his door deskhere. I’m tempted to frame this photograph, and I probably would if my fiancé would let me. Just confirmed, she says no. But I love this combined concept of customer obsession and frugality.\nFrom a capital allocation, leadership, and customer-centric perspective, it’s easy to look back now and recognize how Amazon became the goliath it is today. Bezos may not look it, but he is a ruthless, patient CEO whose basilisk gaze you pray doesn’t fall on your industry.\nSo when Amazon turned its cannons on a private, relatively small payment processing company named Square in 2014, you didn’t have to be a rocket scientist to know who would be left standing after the dust settled.\nBut if you assumed it would be Amazon, you would have been wrong.\n“Amazon Register” was built to kill Square. It undercut Square’s pricing by 30% and offered live customer service (which Square did not have). Even by Square co-founderJim McKelvey’s own admission, Amazon’s product worked better than Square’s ‘dongle’ did (I hate that word as much as you do and I promise to not use it again).\nBut Square survived. Thrived in fact. Square continued to execute along the same playbook, launched new features like Square Capital to the innovation stack, and grew roughly 10% week over week that year. Amazon, for all its strength, could not compete with Square in offerings, and small businesses were understandably skeptical about partnering with Amazon.\nAfter the year-long siege, on October 30, 2015, Amazon gracefully bowed out, announcing they were shuttering Amazon Register. When the hardware was officially discontinued in early 2016, Amazon mailed a white Square card reader to each of its business customers.\nAnd the rest is history.\nSince Square’s IPO in 2015, the company has continued to fend off fearsome competitors such as Intuit (INTU), PayPal (PYPL), and Shopify (SHOP), not to mention the largest banking systems in the world. Square has ridden a wave of timely and engaging financial innovations to a market cap of $107 Billion at the time of this writing. Cash App’s growth has been an absolute rocket ship, and Dorsey is delivering on the long term vision of connecting Seller and Cash App to one, unified ecosystem.\nSquare’s Moat: Customer Acquisition Cost\nIn the banking space, the company that optimizes lifetime value [LTV] vs customer acquisition cost [CAC] is the company that wins.\nRead that again, write it down, bold it and underline it.\nThis is not supernatural. Behind the B-school terminology is a basic principle of unit economics: make more from a customer than it costs to acquire them, and do it better than competitors.\nOf all the participants in the banking ecosystem, I believe Square has the lowest customer acquisition costs. This is a major part of the Dorsey value proposition, and misunderstood.\nAs founder and CEO of both Square and Twitter, Dorsey has been able to leverage his incredibly nuanced understanding of viral communication to inform viral marketing. Starting in 2017, Twitter mediated campaigns like #CashAppFriday, in which Square offers thousands of dollars to Twitter users who post their Cash App handle, has drawn massive numbers of comments, retweets and Cash App downloads. Partnerships with engaging content developers like the Joe Rogan Experience, Lex Fridmen, Burger King, Travis Scott and Lil B have continued to drive brand awareness. This brand awareness is critical, especially in a crowded digital banking space.According to this study, 82% of app or internet searchers choose a familiar brand for the first click.\nAs an example of viral and opportunistic marketing, in 2018 a prominent content creator on TikTok, “Shiggy” released a SoundCloud song about Cash App. After striking a sponsorship deal with Shiggy in 2019, the Cash App marketing team edited a shorter version of the single, and reached out to TikTok influencers with the below message:\n\n Create a TikTok with your best interpretation of the catchy song in everyday situations. And use hashtag #CashAppThatMoney.\n\nSource:Business Insider\nTo date, the Shiggy Cash App song has beenused in 9,138 videos. Prominent TikTok influencers such as Addison Rae (81+ million followers) have leveraged their massive platforms to drive hundreds of millions of views.\nLook at the below tweet I found from Cash App on May 7thof this year. By leveraging Cash App’s 1.2 million Twitter followers, $5k in marketing spend and goodwill resulted in 17.4k comments and 26.7k retweets. Those retweets create a reverberation in the Twitter ecosystem and result in a geometric increase in captive eyeballs. Now I am not a TikTok'er and I started a Twitter account within the past month, but it's important to appreciate Square's masterful use of these millennial and Gen Z driven platforms. Assuming roughly one in 50 retweeting individuals downloads CashApp, Square’s CAC is < $10 dollars.\n\nSource:CashApp Twitter\nThe takehome point from this type of marketing? Cash App is able to climb a more vertical slope of user acquisition at lower cost than challenger and incumbent banks alike.\nARK Invest estimatesincumbent banks spend an average of $925 dollars on customer acquisition. On Square’s most recent earning’s call, management confirmed their CAC was less than $5 dollars. Said another way, Square’s marketing and customer acquisition is 18,500% higher than your retail bank.\nSo how has Square flown under the radar of the massive U.S. banking industry?\nSquare’s strategy to largely target unbanked or “under-banked” individuals allowed them to build a platform without drawing the attention of Wells Fargo (WFC), Bank of America (BAC), and JPMorgan Chase (JPM). But Square is now one of the top ten largest ‘banks’ in the United States by market cap, and is expanding its total addressable market to those who are already clients of traditional banks.\nThis strategy of finding an underserved population, providing value to those customers, then broadening offerings and selling upmarket is in Square’s DNA. They followed the same playbook on the Seller side, initially targeting small businesses doing less than $100k in GMV, but today Square's fastest growing segment is mid- to large-size businesses.\nSquare’s peer Venmo cannot flex the same marketing efficiencies as Cash App. Cash App continues to hold the crown as the most downloaded finance application on Apple’s App Store (AAPL) as well as Google Play Store (GOOG), more popular than Venmo, PayPal Cash, and Robinhood (RBNHD). Furthermore, Square has a full 10X more followers than Venmo on Twitter. These advantages manifest as Square enjoying a healthy gap over Venmo in search as well.\n\nSource:Similarweb\n\nSource: I made this with help fromGoogle Trends\nPerhaps most importantly, although Venmo has more monthly active users (MAU’s), Square is better atmonetizingthese users.According to RBC Capital analyst DanielPerlin, Venmo garners roughly $12 from each MAU, whereas Cash App brings in $54. And due to industry low CAC, Cash App gets the extra benefit of being more profitable as well.\nWhile there is much more that can be said about Square and PayPal’s competition in the challenger banking space, it is this customer acquisition and long term value that underlies why I prefer holding shares of Square over PayPal.\nSquare is just doing the important things better than Venmo. Part of this is Dorsey's social media advantages, but I believe much if it has to do with the fact that Venmo was acquired by PayPal, whereas Square remains independent. The innovative connective tissue which once held Venmo together and fostered bold ideas and big bets was absorbed into the massive PayPal machine, and lost.\nAs a SoFi shareholder and bull, I was disappointed to learn in my research that SoFi has been unable thus far to creatively turn its Twitter presence into a customer acquisition engine. Despite 120k+ followers, the SoFi Twitter page has relatively low engagement and no promotional activities reminiscent of #CashAppFriday. SoFi CEO Anthony Noto coincidentally was formerly COO of Twitter when #CashAppFriday first launched, and I believe he will be able to leverage this experience into a more engaging social media presence. Fortunately for SoFi, their CAC's are low (~$40) with much higher LTV's than Cash App as of now (roughly double, close to $2,000 with cross selling into lending).\nSquare Financial Services: A Bank For All Mankind\nOn March 1, 2021, Square announced its banking service had begun operations after completing the charter approval process with the FDIC. This is a massive catalyst for Square’s business, and positions them squarely against the glacially slow incumbent banks.\nI recently wrote adeep dive on SoFi(SOFI), which is also pursuing a bank charter, and discussed the massive benefits these fintech companies inherit by building banking infrastructure. With this banking platform, Square will be able to make loans using deposits on its platform, originate loans to small businesses, and improve profitability.\nAbout a month ago, an iOS developer namedSteve Moser discovered codeon a Square software update revealing new products “Square Checking” and “Square Savings.” Based on the code, Square is planning to offer 0.5% interest rates for its savings accounts through 2021, a full 8+ times higher than thenational savings account average.\nSquare's banking play is a continuation of the playbook that led them to purchase Credit Karma’s tax preparation business in 2020. At the time of the acquisition, roughly 2 million Americans used Karma to file returns, with an average refund of $2k. Those tax returns were then deposited in Cash App accounts, where fintech magic happens. Higher account deposits can be loaned out, drive increased transaction volume, and ultimately elevate the LTV of the user.\nSoFi is doing something similar with its $3k account minimums for SoFi IPO Invest, and Square’s banking venture has the opportunity to both elevate account balances and steal additional customers from incumbent banks.\nAnd the incumbent banks are terrified. See what Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan and perhaps the most famous banker in the world has said about Square over the years.\n\n What does the small business want? They wanted to process cash and checks and debit on the same machine. We didn’t give them that opportunity. Square did.\n\nJamie Dimon, CEO, JP Morgan, Investor Day, 2019\nAnd more recently when asked if JPM should be scared of challenger banks like Square:\n\n Absolutely we should be scared s---less about that. We’ve just got to get quicker, better, faster.\n\nJamie Dimon, CEO, JP Morgan, Investor Day, January, 2021\nMost importantly, adding banking services multiplies the LTV of Square's customers, and is a major step towards Cash App becoming a financial super app. The single biggest money maker for individual banking customers is checking and savings accounts. According to an ARK Invest white paper, LTV per retail banking customer is roughly $3,600, of which a full 25%, or $900 is checking and savings accounts.\n\nSource: ARK Invest, with annotations from me:Cash App vs Venmo\nYou can breathlessly hype Square's Bitcoin opportunities and wax poetic about Cash App's booming Bitcoin revenue, but the meat and potatoes is here, right in front of us: Square banking. The weapon Square will use to dethrone the incumbent banks is slowly being drawn from its sheath.\nJack Dorsey's Bitcoin Obsession\nFor those of you who don't follow Dorsey on Twitter or read updates about the Bitcoin (BTC-USD) 2021 Convention, believe me when I say Jack isconvictedabout the role Bitcoin will play in the Internet’s future.\n\n If I were not at Square or Twitter, I would be working on bitcoin. If bitcoin needed more help than Square or Twitter, I would leave them for bitcoin.\n\nJack Dorsey, CEO Square, CEO Twitter,Bitcoin 2021 Conference\nAt the conference Dorsey announced Square is considering releasing a hardware Bitcoin wallet. For those unfamiliar, when you purchase cryptocurrency on an exchange, the vast majority of the time it is not actuallyyours, but is in fact an IOU. If you’ve heard the expression, “Not your keys, not your coins,” this is referring directly to this issue. If you don’t have a hardware wallet with a password only you have access to, then the coins don’t truly belong to you.\nRegarding Square's involvement inBitcoin hardware wallets, color me unimpressed. I was surprised to see Square’s stock pop on that news. I can’t really see a situation where a company doing $20+ Billion a year in sales like Square gets meaningful top or bottom line contribution from a glorified flash drive. It’s just not going to move the needle.\nTo be honest, cryptocurrency is the biggest potential blind spot I see right now in Dorsey’s execution. Don’t get me wrong, as a Square shareholder I willgladly accept a1,047% increase year over year in Bitcoin revenue to $3.51 B as of Q1 2021. But Dorsey refusing to allow any other coins on the Cash App platform is, in my opinion, the wrong choice for Square and cryptocurrency in general. I have already heard several friends comment they see no role for Cash App because its “crypto features” only allow for Bitcoin trading.\n“That’s why we don’t deal with any other ‘currencies’ or ‘coins’ because we’re so focused on making bitcoin the native currency for the internet,”\n-Jack Dorsey, CEO Square\nEffectively, Dorsey is limiting features for Square’s Cash App users to focus all attention on Bitcoin. But that’s not really how cryptocurrency works – over the past several years the market share of Bitcoin has declined slightly as new platforms have generated interest and ease of investing in alternative coins. Diversity of coin options coincided with Bitcoin reaching its highest market capitalization of all time. I believe there is space for more than one coin in the future, and am personally invested in Ethereum (ETH-USD) due to the utility it offers as the nexus of Internet 3.0.\nI would love to see Dorsey developing revenue-driving crypto services such as decentralized finance for Square. I said this for SoFi, and I will say it again for Square: a staking system, by which users are granted upsize interest for holding Bitcoin in their Cash App, for example, would dramatically elevate Cash App’s value proposition. This is something for all challenger banks to explore and invest in, and it is a game changer.\nAll that said, Square has a history of surprising analysts and investors with clever solutions that delight customers. Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency landscapeneedsinnovation and development, and Square is well capitalized in cash and intellect to address this issue.\nSquare's Near Term Risks\nDespite how positive I feel about Square's long-term positioning in the fintech space, I would be remiss if I did not alert you to several considerable near term risks. Square is hurtling towards challenging 2020 comps, with Q2 2020 being the first quarter of government disbursement checks. While I expect Square to post excellent Seller and Cash App numbers, growth will inherently moderate. Furthermore, Cash App benefited from Robinhood's well-publicized meltdown in Q1, as retail investors searched for more transparent and reliable trading platforms. This resulted in a pull-forward of user growth, and I do not believe this is sustainable or reflective of Cash App's long term user growth rates.\nFurthermore, Square's Q1 2021 shareholder letter was chock full of new operating expense forecasts for Q2. Square promised stock based compensation would rise materially in Q2 as new hirings occurred (in Q1 was $118 million), an increase in product development and G&A by $120 million, as well as an increase in transaction and loan losses by $40 million.\nA potential bright spot is Square's investment in DoorDash (DASH), which was a catalyst for Square's blowout Q4 2020 earnings. Based on a price of $168.5/share at the time of this writing, DoorDash's stock has appreciated 28.5% since Q1 end. That equates to a $65 million appreciation in Square's DoorDash equity ownership.\nEven still, netting out equity appreciation and Square's guided opex expansion, Square is guiding for roughly $110 million in additional Q2 spend. This is significant for a company that earned only $39 million last quarter, and Q1 was already benefiting from stimulus check disbursement and peak Bitcoin price and volatility.\nAnd that brings us to Bitcoin, of which Square owns 8,027 coins.\nBitcoin's price at the conclusion of Q1 (March 31, 2021) was $58,724. At the time of this writing, one Bitcoin is valued at $32,270, or a 45% drop from the prior quarter.\nThis is a loss of $259 million on Bitcoin alone in Q2, 2021.\nGulp. All in, these costs will result in an estimated $370 million drag on Square's Q2 earnings. Despite these facts, consensus estimates for Square indicate the investment community believes Square will beprofitablethis quarter, with 86% earnings revisions up over the past three months. I would be shocked if Square turned a profit this next quarter.\nAccordingly, if you are considering a position in Square, this might be a good indication to wait on the sidelines and see how the next earnings call plays out. As a long term Square shareholder I will continue to hold, as none of these issues impacts my long term bullish stance on Square. I believe Bitcoin will recover over the balance of 2021, and Square's investments in product development and talent acquisition are necessary for the battle ahead with legacy banks.\nConcluding Thoughts\nThe holy grail of the fintech space is low customer acquisition cost. Dorsey’s mastery of viral social media advertising generating low CAC's has been a primary catalyst of Square’s titanic growth rates. Square is just beginning to combine and integrate Cash App and Seller, which will manifest as increased user LTV and strengthening network effects.\nBetween Square cross-selling Cash App and Seller, solidifying a banking presence with Square banking and the development and implementation of much-needed crypto services, Square will be the apex presence in the fintech space, with no natural predators. I believe this not only possible, but likely. As the future fintech king, Square has a vast ocean of opportunity ahead, because in the multi-trillion financial services space, winner takes most.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":166,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":138481157,"gmtCreate":1621953923679,"gmtModify":1704365120685,"author":{"id":"3580898776597625","authorId":"3580898776597625","authorIdStr":"3580898776597625","name":"likaboss","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/027156c6b15571003ac371d19a653946","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3580898776597625"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment","listText":"Like and comment","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/138481157","repostId":"1124239903","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1124239903","pubTimestamp":1621953892,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1124239903?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-25 22:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Can Penn National Rise to the Top of the Gambling Industry?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1124239903","media":"investing","summary":"The price of shares of Penn National Gaming (NASDAQ:PENN) is expected to gain significantly as peopl","content":"<p>The price of shares of Penn National Gaming (NASDAQ:PENN) is expected to gain significantly as people return to live sports betting as life returns to normal with the faster-than-expected success of the COVID-19 vaccination drive in the United States.
