The new Apple Watches will be available to order on Wednesday and the new AirPods Pro launch on Sept. 23.</p><p><b>New Apple Watch Series 8, Apple Watch SE and Apple Watch Ultra</b></p><p>The new device will be called the Series 8, Apple COO Jeff Williams said. It’s more durable than previous models and has a new temperature sensor the company will use to help track women’s health including ovulation.</p><p>It will come in four colors in aluminum — black, gold, aluminum, and red — and three colors in stainless steel. It costs at least $399 for an aluminum model and $499 for one with cellular connectivity.</p><p>Apple says that the device is designed to keep data secure and private and that health data will only be shared with explicit permission from the user.</p><p>Apple also added new safety features powered by two motion sensors. The new car crash detection that can detect if you were in a severe car crash and automatically call emergency services.</p><p>A new mode on Apple Watches can extend the Apple Watch battery life from 18 hours to 36 hours by temporarily disabling the always-on display and workout notifications.</p><p>Cook started by airing a video highlighting letters people have written to him about how the wearable has helped them get help in emergency situations.</p><p>Moreover, Apple has announced a redesigned Apple Watch SE, which is a lower-cost version of its mainline Series 8.</p><p>This year’s model includes:</p><ul><li>A bigger screen</li><li>A new plastic design on the underside of the watch</li><li>Heart rate notifications</li><li>Fall detection</li></ul><p>It will retail for either $249 or $299 starting on Sept. 16. Apple is marketing it as a device for children who might not need their own iPhone.</p><p>Also, it announced the Apple Watch Ultra, new high-end watch with a new design, bigger screen, and titanium case. The product is aimed at outdoor athletes.</p><p>It will cost at least $799 and will hit store shelves on Sept. 23. Preorders are available on Wednesday.</p><p>It comes with a new watch face with more information, including a compass. It also has a new orange “action” button for quick use while working out or wearing gloves. It can also show how deep the user is diving under the water while swimming.</p><p>Apple says that the watch can get as many as 60 hours of battery life with a software update this fall.</p><p>“Every detail has been engineered to make the most rugged and capable than ever,” Apple COO Jeff Williams said in a promo video.</p><p><b>AirPods Pro</b></p><p>Apple CEO Tim Cook announced a new model of Apple’s AirPods Pro, which wireless earbuds with noise-cancelling.</p><p>They cost $249 and will go on sale on Sept 23.</p><p>They have better sound quality and clarity, Apple said, due to an Apple H2 chip on the inside, an upgrade from the earlier model’s H1.</p><p>New features include:</p><ul><li>New touch control to adjust volume</li><li>Longer battery life with up to 6 hours listening time</li><li>A smaller extra-small ear tip</li><li>A speaker added to the case</li><li>Can be charged with MagSafe chargers.</li></ul><p>Apple said that the noise cancellation on the new models is twice as good as before.</p><p><b>iPhone 14,</b> <b>14</b> <b>Plus</b> <b>and</b> <b>14</b> <b>Pro</b></p><p>Apple CEO Tim Cook announced the iPhone 14. So far, Apple has announced two new models— an iPhone 14 Plus and an iPhone 14.</p><p>The iPhone 14 Plus replaces the older “iPhone 13 mini” model with a bigger model with a 6.7-inch screen.</p><p>The iPhone 14 will start at $799 and the Plus will cost $899. Preorders start on Sept 9 and the smaller version will go on sale on Sept. 16. The Plus model won’t ship until October, though.</p><p>Apple said that all U.S. iPhone 14 models will no longer use physical SIM cards, replacing them with a digital eSIM that can support multiple phone numbers and is better for security.</p><p>Features of the iPhone 14 include:</p><ul><li>True -tone OLED display</li><li>Five colors including a new light blue</li><li>Improved battery life</li><li>Ceramic screens that are more durable</li><li>Better low-light performance on the front-facing camera</li><li>Action Mode that stabilizes video</li><li>Safety service called Emergency SOS via Satellite that can connect to emergency services even if the user is outside of cellular or wi-fi range.

Owens \n</p>\n<p>\n  Disney added more streaming subscribers than expected over the holidays, and rebound in theme parks also helped boost performance \n</p>\n<p>\n  The Walt Disney Co. blew away expectations for the holiday season, producing a record revenue total and more than $1 billion in profit by adding more subscribers to Disney+ and other streaming services than expected amid a rebound for theme parks. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Disney <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DIS\">$(DIS)$</a> reported fiscal first-quarter net income of $1.1 billion, or 60 cents a share on sales of $21.82 billion, up from $16.25 billion a year ago. After adjusting for restructuring costs, amortization and other effects, the company reported earnings of $1.06 a share, compared with adjusted earnings of 32 cents a share a year ago. Analysts surveyed by FactSet had expected adjusted net income of 74 cents a share on revenue of $20.27 billion. \n</p>\n<p>\n  In its streaming efforts, Disney reported 129.8 million Disney+ subscribers, adding 11.8 million from the previous quarter, and 196.4 million total streaming subscribers to services that also include ESPN+ and Hulu. Analysts on average expected 124.7 million Disney+ subscribers and 191.1 million total streaming customers, according to FactSet. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Shares fell rose nearly 9% in after-hours trading Wednesday following the release of the results, after rising 3.4% to $147.31 in the regular session. \n</p>\n<p>\n  \"This marks the final year of The Walt Disney Company's first century, and performance like this coupled with our unmatched collection of assets and platforms, creative capabilities, and unique place in the culture give me great confidence we will continue to define entertainment for the next 100 years,\"  Disney Chief Executive Bob Chapek said in a statement announcing the results. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Read more: After 'baptism by fire,' Disney CEO looks for a rebound \n</p>\n<p>\n  The results offered the latest chapter in a COVID-era narrative for Disney, which traversed the first year of the pandemic with its theme parks shut down and live-action movies on hiatus by focusing on streaming efforts. Disney benefitted from a spike in viewership of its then-new Disney+ streaming service until growth inevitably slowed, but is hoping the other businesses will bounce back as streaming growth suffers. With the Omicron variant on the wane, attendance at amusement parks and movie theaters are expected to rebound this year while Disney+ expands to 50 more countries with a full slate of content from its Marvel and Star Wars franchises. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Disney breaks down its operations into two segments, \"Media and Entertainment Distribution\" that focuses on content, and \"Parks, Experiences and Products.\" In the first quarter, the media business collected revenue of $14.59 billion in total, while analysts on average expected $14.55 billion. \n</p>\n<p>\n  The direct-to-consumer segment, which also includes international products, hauled in $4.7 billion in revenue, while analysts forecast $4.8 billion on average. The company's television networks generated sales of $7.71 billion, while analysts' average estimate was $7.7 billion. Content sales and licensing led to revenue of $2.43 billion vs. expectations of $2.27 billion. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Disney's theme parks and product sales segment reported $7.23 billion in revenue as attractions continued to reopen in the U.S. and abroad, a jump from $3.59 billion a year ago.

The prominence of these five technology companies cannot be overstated, and even during the pandemic, the FAANG fivesome has been responsible for pushing the technology index to a new all-time high.</p>\n<p>But if there's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> stock among the five that you should be thinking of buying today, it's Alphabet. Originally known as Google, or the \"G\" in the FAANG acronym, the company changed its name in 2015 to signify that it is far from a conventional business. Although Google is still a core part of Alphabet, the company is made up of a collection of disparate businesses that explore different technologies and industries.</p>\n<p>The above, as well as the fact that Alphabet is churning out superb numbers, are good reasons why you should not hesitate to scoop up shares of this internet giant.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/84179534e131c393845805fc8c38a4ed\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>A growing cash machine</h2>\n<p>Alphabet's financial performance is impressive, which explains why the stock has nearly doubled in the past year alone. Revenue started at $90.3 billion in 2016 and more than doubled to $182.5 billion by 2020, while net income jumped from $19.5 billion to $40.3 billion over the same period. Moreover, capital spending has remained fairly constant even as operating cash flow increased, leading to higher levels of free cash flow for the business over the last several years.</p>\n<p>The company has shown that it can still grow rapidly, with its fiscal 2021 second-quarter revenue surging by 62% year over year. Increased technology adoption and digitalization were important factors that contributed to the rise, but Alphabet was already on a steady growth trajectory even before the pandemic broke out. Net income for the quarter more than doubled year over year to $18.5 billion, and the company's half-year net income of $36.5 billion has already exceeded the net income for the whole of 2019.</p>\n<h2>A culture of continuous improvement</h2>\n<p>The great thing about Alphabet is not only its financial numbers, but how the company strives to better the lives of all of us in myriad ways. The pandemic has highlighted just how innovative the company has been, as teams at Google launched more than 200 new products and features. A COVID-19 layer was also added to Google Maps to show information on cases to help people to plan their travel routes, and Google Meet, the company's videoconferencing software, was made free for anyone with a Gmail account.</p>\n<p>CEO Sundar Pichai offered a glimpse into new products and systems on the company's latest earnings conference call. A new artificial intelligence system called Lambda, with natural conversation capabilities, can help to make communication and computing more accessible to everyone. The upcoming version 12 of Android seeks to improve speed and power efficiency and can also personalize devices. while YouTube Shorts, a short-form video format similar to the popular TikTok, has been rolled out in more than 100 countries worldwide and has garnered more than 15 billion daily views.</p>\n<p>Alphabet is also investing $10 billion over the next five years to strengthen cybersecurity, as this is now a critical area of focus for many companies and governments. And let's not forget that the technology behemoth also has an \"Other Bets\" division that makes ambitious investments in new technology such as self-driving cars and healthcare data analytics.</p>\n<p>That's just a quick snapshot of Alphabet's biggest headlines in recent weeks. It would take a book to cover everything.</p>\n<h2>The allure of moonshots</h2>\n<p>At the heart of Alphabet's culture are \"moonshots,\" which help the business to branch out into adjacent or new technologies and nurture them into mature, thriving businesses. Essentially, the company is not interested in making just incremental changes to its products and services but is focused on looking for revolutionary change that can bring technology to a new level.</p>\n<p>As such, the company will not shy away from high-risk projects and encourages a culture of innovation that could see it discovering groundbreaking new technologies that could power the future. This, in essence, is what makes the future so exciting for an investor in Alphabet.</p>\n<h2>A long growth runway</h2>\n<p>The great news is that the company still has a long growth runway in front of it. Digital advertisement spending, for which Google's share was close to 29% of the U.S. market last year, grew 12.2% year over year in 2020 and shows signs of additional expansion.</p>\n<p>Alphabet continues to invest in new technologies and is also constantly improving its cloud services, search engine, and other features.

The prominence of these five technology companies cannot be overstated, and even during the pandemic, the FAANG fivesome has been responsible for pushing the technology index to a new all-time high.\nBut if there's one stock among the five that you should be thinking of buying today, it's Alphabet. Originally known as Google, or the \"G\" in the FAANG acronym, the company changed its name in 2015 to signify that it is far from a conventional business. Although Google is still a core part of Alphabet, the company is made up of a collection of disparate businesses that explore different technologies and industries.\nThe above, as well as the fact that Alphabet is churning out superb numbers, are good reasons why you should not hesitate to scoop up shares of this internet giant.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nA growing cash machine\nAlphabet's financial performance is impressive, which explains why the stock has nearly doubled in the past year alone. Revenue started at $90.3 billion in 2016 and more than doubled to $182.5 billion by 2020, while net income jumped from $19.5 billion to $40.3 billion over the same period. Moreover, capital spending has remained fairly constant even as operating cash flow increased, leading to higher levels of free cash flow for the business over the last several years.\nThe company has shown that it can still grow rapidly, with its fiscal 2021 second-quarter revenue surging by 62% year over year. Increased technology adoption and digitalization were important factors that contributed to the rise, but Alphabet was already on a steady growth trajectory even before the pandemic broke out. Net income for the quarter more than doubled year over year to $18.5 billion, and the company's half-year net income of $36.5 billion has already exceeded the net income for the whole of 2019.\nA culture of continuous improvement\nThe great thing about Alphabet is not only its financial numbers, but how the company strives to better the lives of all of us in myriad ways. The pandemic has highlighted just how innovative the company has been, as teams at Google launched more than 200 new products and features. A COVID-19 layer was also added to Google Maps to show information on cases to help people to plan their travel routes, and Google Meet, the company's videoconferencing software, was made free for anyone with a Gmail account.\nCEO Sundar Pichai offered a glimpse into new products and systems on the company's latest earnings conference call. A new artificial intelligence system called Lambda, with natural conversation capabilities, can help to make communication and computing more accessible to everyone. The upcoming version 12 of Android seeks to improve speed and power efficiency and can also personalize devices. while YouTube Shorts, a short-form video format similar to the popular TikTok, has been rolled out in more than 100 countries worldwide and has garnered more than 15 billion daily views.\nAlphabet is also investing $10 billion over the next five years to strengthen cybersecurity, as this is now a critical area of focus for many companies and governments. And let's not forget that the technology behemoth also has an \"Other Bets\" division that makes ambitious investments in new technology such as self-driving cars and healthcare data analytics.\nThat's just a quick snapshot of Alphabet's biggest headlines in recent weeks. It would take a book to cover everything.\nThe allure of moonshots\nAt the heart of Alphabet's culture are \"moonshots,\" which help the business to branch out into adjacent or new technologies and nurture them into mature, thriving businesses. Essentially, the company is not interested in making just incremental changes to its products and services but is focused on looking for revolutionary change that can bring technology to a new level.\nAs such, the company will not shy away from high-risk projects and encourages a culture of innovation that could see it discovering groundbreaking new technologies that could power the future. This, in essence, is what makes the future so exciting for an investor in Alphabet.\nA long growth runway\nThe great news is that the company still has a long growth runway in front of it. Digital advertisement spending, for which Google's share was close to 29% of the U.S. market last year, grew 12.2% year over year in 2020 and shows signs of additional expansion.\nAlphabet continues to invest in new technologies and is also constantly improving its cloud services, search engine, and other features. With the pandemic as a tailwind for technology adoption, investors should feel confident that the company can continue to deliver. The stock is inexpensive, trading at just 26 times forward earnings, as it can probably chalk up consistent growth in revenue and net income for many more years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":842,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":816558288,"gmtCreate":1630508858444,"gmtModify":1676530325868,"author":{"id":"3581643603867637","authorId":"3581643603867637","name":"Kmlingc","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581643603867637","authorIdStr":"3581643603867637"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow.

Also, it shows that Walt Disney does not consider the 103 shares for 100 shares and 1,014 shares for 1,000 shares as stock splits.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a398b378fd1cb185e5fe95cbaf2513d7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"232\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Source: The Walt Disney Company</i></p>\n<p><b>Is Disney Stock Going To Split Again?</b></p>\n<p>Tesla (TSLA) and Nvidia (NVDA) were among the prominent few companies that underwent stock splits recently. When Tesla announced itsfirst-ever stock spliton August 11 last year, the stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.</p>\n<p>Nvidia announced in May that its decision to do afour-for-one stock splitwas approved by the board. Its shares were trading above $500 before the announcement and are priced around $750 currently. Nvidia justified the proposed stock split as enabling its shares to become \"more accessible to investors and employees.\"</p>\n<p>The share price of Disney is currently around $172. It hit a high of $203.02 on March 8, 2021. Even at the peak, the share price was a fraction of what TSLA and NVDA were trading at prior to their stock split announcements. As such, is there an impetus for Disney?</p>\n<p>Well, the last time Disney had a stock split was July 9, 1998, and the pre-split share price was only $111. Apart from one stock split in 1973, the last six stock splits were done when its share price was below $200. A quote often attributed to Mark Twain goes: \"History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes.\" It is probably timely to consider Disney could conduct a fresh stock split as its stock heads back towards $200.</p>\n<p>Disney's Valuation And Prospects Support A Stock Split</p>\n<p>The Walt Disney Company appeared to be heading for disaster when the COVID-19 pandemic struck last year. Its Disneyland theme parks and hotels around the world had to be shut for extended periods. Its cruise line and retail stores had to close for business as well. Its movies couldn't be shown as theaters were shut while film and TV productions had to be halted too.</p>\n<p>The challenges that the House of the Mouse faced were unprecedented. In the second fiscal quarter of 2020, its adjusted EPS fell to $0.60 a share from $1.61 a year earlier primarily due to the suspended operations.</p>\n<p>The management took proactive steps during the second quarter of 2020 to enhance Disney's liquidity position by issuing $6 billion of term debt. A week after the quarter ended, it issued another $925 million in term debt. In terms of net financial debt, however, Disney managed to hold steady and did not exceed the peak of above $50 billion following the addition of debt load to its balance sheet from the 21st Century Fox acquisition in 2019.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cbd5da32f627c04144c275782ef135e7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"432\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Although Disney's debt level remains elevated at 28 percent, its debt-to-assets remained close to its five-year average at around 25 percent. It is also comparatively lower than its industry peers. ViacomCBS (VIAC)(VIACA) has a debt-to-assets of 32.5 percent while Comcast (CMCSA) has a debt-to-assets of 37.2 percent. Netflix (NFLX) doesn't own any attraction parks but it has the highest debt-to-assets of 38.8 percent.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ff01b9033cebf8c5e4fb15976c0d266\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Looking at the debt-to-equity ratio, The Walt Disney Company is also the lowest among its peers.

He added that dividends will be \"a part of our long-term capital allocation strategy, for sure.\"</p>\n<p>Chapek also revealed what the board is considering:</p>\n<blockquote>\n \"...they'll take into account what they’ve taken into account in the past, which is, what's our strategic investment outlook, where our alternative uses of capital and what are those priorities?

And what's really just the overall recovery of our businesses across the entire enterprise?\"\n</blockquote>\n<p>For now, Disney's financials are constrained. Its free cash flow is at a depressed level historically, primarily due to the weak cash from operations which in turn is due to the low revenue. The cash from operations on a trailing-twelve-month basis is at a multi-year low of $4.3 billion.

The consensus EPS estimate for the fiscal period ending September 2025 is $8.72, implying a sub-20 times forward P/E, a sharp drop from the one-year forward P/E of 72 times. It's thus likely that the share price would rise to bring the P/E ratio above the \"bargain\" sub-20 times level, increasing the justification for a stock split.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f33bdfa14f2e1f94d872349194cef3d1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Source: Seeking Alpha Premium</i></p>\n<p><b>Additional Justifications For A DIS Stock Split</b></p>\n<p>Given that one of the reasons for doing a stock split is to bring the share price much lower than the current level, double-digit pricing certainly fits the bill.

The real magic is their effect on Apple’s earnings. Because unlike innovations such as Face ID—the facial recognition system used to unlock iPhones—the chip and camera improvements bring a dual benefit to the Cupertino-based company: Not only do consumers pay a premium for the new features, they also usually end up needing more storage to make the most of those features. And storage, it turns out, is an unbelievable money-printing machine. In fact, it might even be Apple’s secret weapon.</p>\n<p>The next iPhone lineup looks set to turbocharge that approach. Alongside other camera upgrades, the handsets will include a higher-quality video format called ProRes when they’re released in the next few weeks,Bloomberg News reported on Tuesday, as well as more chip updates.</p>\n<p>With every improvement in image quality comes a commensurate increase in storage requirements. The new photo format that Apple added to the iPhone last year, brandedProRaw, is as much as 12 times larger than the standard JPEG. Bigger video files will exacerbate the trend. (That’s especially bad news for those of us whose casual snaps already take up a slightly embarrassing 36 gigabytes.)</p>\n<p>Consumers’ need for more storage is enormously profitable. Where it costs the consumer $100 to add 128 gigabytes of storage, Apple is unlikely to pay more than $20 for the same chip. If you’d prefer to store the data remotely, Apple’s iCloud offering enjoys similar profit margins.

The real magic is their effect on Apple’s earnings. Because unlike innovations such as Face ID—the facial recognition system used to unlock iPhones—the chip and camera improvements bring a dual benefit to the Cupertino-based company: Not only do consumers pay a premium for the new features, they also usually end up needing more storage to make the most of those features. And storage, it turns out, is an unbelievable money-printing machine. In fact, it might even be Apple’s secret weapon.\nThe next iPhone lineup looks set to turbocharge that approach. Alongside other camera upgrades, the handsets will include a higher-quality video format called ProRes when they’re released in the next few weeks,Bloomberg News reported on Tuesday, as well as more chip updates.\nWith every improvement in image quality comes a commensurate increase in storage requirements. The new photo format that Apple added to the iPhone last year, brandedProRaw, is as much as 12 times larger than the standard JPEG. Bigger video files will exacerbate the trend. (That’s especially bad news for those of us whose casual snaps already take up a slightly embarrassing 36 gigabytes.)\nConsumers’ need for more storage is enormously profitable. Where it costs the consumer $100 to add 128 gigabytes of storage, Apple is unlikely to pay more than $20 for the same chip. If you’d prefer to store the data remotely, Apple’s iCloud offering enjoys similar profit margins. Besides, those who have already made the choice to opt for a $1,099 iPhone 12 Pro Max may be less concerned about ponying up more cash for extra capacity.\nFaster download speeds and greater processing power have the same effect. 5G lets you download more data more quickly, but you need the capacity on your device to store it, as do the whiz-bang games enabled by faster chips.\nApple is reaping the rewards. Its revenue is expected to jump 33%, to an amazing $365 billion, this year, though of course only a slice of that comes from additional memory options. But it shows how canny investment in improving the right technologies can have a multiplicative effect on profit even in the absence of blockbuster new features or flagship products—the average selling price of an iPhone jumped from $748 at the end of 2019 to $938 this March.\nSo while we wait for Apple to eventually reveal its Next Big Thing, whether in autonomous cars, smart glasses, or something else entirely, in the meantime the world’s most valuable company is showing just how profitable its game of inches has become.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":529,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":882045683,"gmtCreate":1631634243542,"gmtModify":1676530596740,"author":{"id":"3581643603867637","authorId":"3581643603867637","name":"Kmlingc","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581643603867637","authorIdStr":"3581643603867637"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/882045683","repostId":"2167555852","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":842,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9932763533,"gmtCreate":1662993622022,"gmtModify":1676537178487,"author":{"id":"3581643603867637","authorId":"3581643603867637","name":"Kmlingc","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581643603867637","authorIdStr":"3581643603867637"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/AAPL\">$Apple(AAPL)$</a>Buy both","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/AAPL\">$Apple(AAPL)$</a>Buy both","text":"$Apple(AAPL)$Buy both","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9932763533","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":440,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9096578403,"gmtCreate":1644443691399,"gmtModify":1676533925504,"author":{"id":"3581643603867637","authorId":"3581643603867637","name":"Kmlingc","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581643603867637","authorIdStr":"3581643603867637"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Up up it goes","listText":"Up up it goes","text":"Up up it goes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9096578403","repostId":"2210488550","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":719,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129752935,"gmtCreate":1624399885227,"gmtModify":1703835343947,"author":{"id":"3581643603867637","authorId":"3581643603867637","name":"Kmlingc","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581643603867637","authorIdStr":"3581643603867637"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"??","listText":"??","text":"??","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/129752935","repostId":"1186919064","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1186919064","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1624352931,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1186919064?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-22 17:08","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Will Disney Stock Split This Year?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1186919064","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Disney's stock split history is reviewed for the possibility of a repeat this year.Its financials and cash flows are negatively impacted by the pandemic but analysts are projecting a strong recovery in the next few years.The Walt Disney Company could consider another stock split to \"get more people in the stock.\".

However, the exercises in 1962 and 2007 seem more like bonus issues than stock splits. The first \"split\" for DIS stock was dated December 18, 1962. This was a 103 for 100 split, meaning that a shareholder with 100 shares of DIS pre-split will subsequently own 103 shares.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98283a2c39510a381b9f91cdc416f6f8\" tg-width=\"274\" tg-height=\"329\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Source:StockSplitHistory.com</i></p>\n<p>As with all corporate matters, investors should refer to the official announcements to be sure. From Walt Disney's website under the Investor Relations section, the company provided a neat table under the Frequently Asked Questions [FAQs]. The table showed only seven past stock splits that happened between 1956 and 1998. This meant that DIS stock has not split for over two decades. Also, it shows that Walt Disney does not consider the 103 shares for 100 shares and 1,014 shares for 1,000 shares as stock splits.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a398b378fd1cb185e5fe95cbaf2513d7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"232\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Source: The Walt Disney Company</i></p>\n<p><b>Is Disney Stock Going To Split Again?</b></p>\n<p>Tesla (TSLA) and Nvidia (NVDA) were among the prominent few companies that underwent stock splits recently. When Tesla announced itsfirst-ever stock spliton August 11 last year, the stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.</p>\n<p>Nvidia announced in May that its decision to do afour-for-one stock splitwas approved by the board. Its shares were trading above $500 before the announcement and are priced around $750 currently. Nvidia justified the proposed stock split as enabling its shares to become \"more accessible to investors and employees.\"</p>\n<p>The share price of Disney is currently around $172. It hit a high of $203.02 on March 8, 2021. Even at the peak, the share price was a fraction of what TSLA and NVDA were trading at prior to their stock split announcements. As such, is there an impetus for Disney?</p>\n<p>Well, the last time Disney had a stock split was July 9, 1998, and the pre-split share price was only $111. Apart from one stock split in 1973, the last six stock splits were done when its share price was below $200. A quote often attributed to Mark Twain goes: \"History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes.\" It is probably timely to consider Disney could conduct a fresh stock split as its stock heads back towards $200.</p>\n<p>Disney's Valuation And Prospects Support A Stock Split</p>\n<p>The Walt Disney Company appeared to be heading for disaster when the COVID-19 pandemic struck last year. Its Disneyland theme parks and hotels around the world had to be shut for extended periods. Its cruise line and retail stores had to close for business as well. Its movies couldn't be shown as theaters were shut while film and TV productions had to be halted too.</p>\n<p>The challenges that the House of the Mouse faced were unprecedented. In the second fiscal quarter of 2020, its adjusted EPS fell to $0.60 a share from $1.61 a year earlier primarily due to the suspended operations.</p>\n<p>The management took proactive steps during the second quarter of 2020 to enhance Disney's liquidity position by issuing $6 billion of term debt. A week after the quarter ended, it issued another $925 million in term debt. In terms of net financial debt, however, Disney managed to hold steady and did not exceed the peak of above $50 billion following the addition of debt load to its balance sheet from the 21st Century Fox acquisition in 2019.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cbd5da32f627c04144c275782ef135e7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"432\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Although Disney's debt level remains elevated at 28 percent, its debt-to-assets remained close to its five-year average at around 25 percent. It is also comparatively lower than its industry peers. ViacomCBS (VIAC)(VIACA) has a debt-to-assets of 32.5 percent while Comcast (CMCSA) has a debt-to-assets of 37.2 percent. Netflix (NFLX) doesn't own any attraction parks but it has the highest debt-to-assets of 38.8 percent.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ff01b9033cebf8c5e4fb15976c0d266\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Looking at the debt-to-equity ratio, The Walt Disney Company is also the lowest among its peers. This suggests that Disney's capital structure could be conservative in its approach to debt relative to the industry.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c53bbfa821e92f67b05ae6c4a418bad0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"480\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>However, dividend investors may have been disappointed with the decision of Disney's Board to forego the payment of dividends last year. Its last payment of $0.88 per share was on January 16, 2020, for those who had the shares on the record date of December 16, 2019.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/86b599e7a38c7af0abe617f3e95e54a5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Bob Chapek, the Chief Executive Officer of Disney, said during the Credit Suisse 23rd Annual Communications Conference held on June 14 that the Board of Directors is prioritizing thefunding of its Direct-to-Consumer[DTC] business. He added that dividends will be \"a part of our long-term capital allocation strategy, for sure.\"</p>\n<p>Chapek also revealed what the board is considering:</p>\n<blockquote>\n \"...they'll take into account what they’ve taken into account in the past, which is, what's our strategic investment outlook, where our alternative uses of capital and what are those priorities? What our financial leverage look like coming out of COVID? What the operating environment look like in terms of the release of restrictions that we've got that might constrain our business going forward, or at least give us some time to actually ramp back up to full operating mode, if you will? And what's really just the overall recovery of our businesses across the entire enterprise?\"\n</blockquote>\n<p>For now, Disney's financials are constrained. Its free cash flow is at a depressed level historically, primarily due to the weak cash from operations which in turn is due to the low revenue. The cash from operations on a trailing-twelve-month basis is at a multi-year low of $4.3 billion. Its new star division, Disney+, is unable to singlehandedly lift the company from its pandemic-impacted operations.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/501540384c7735541ed0eeb33116a073\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"447\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Nevertheless, Wall Street analysts are not perturbed by the short-term difficulties faced by Disney. The consensus EPS estimate for the fiscal period ending September 2025 is $8.72, implying a sub-20 times forward P/E, a sharp drop from the one-year forward P/E of 72 times. It's thus likely that the share price would rise to bring the P/E ratio above the \"bargain\" sub-20 times level, increasing the justification for a stock split.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f33bdfa14f2e1f94d872349194cef3d1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"281\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><i>Source: Seeking Alpha Premium</i></p>\n<p><b>Additional Justifications For A DIS Stock Split</b></p>\n<p>Given that one of the reasons for doing a stock split is to bring the share price much lower than the current level, double-digit pricing certainly fits the bill. A rhetorical repeat of a 3:1 stock split would bring the share price of Disney to around $57, making it look affordable psychologically, even though it is meaningless from the valuation angle.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, it appears that Disney prefers the prestige of a larger share price, given that it has long resisted a stock split (the last one being over 20 years ago). The management of Disney might regard DIS stock's elevated share price as a reflection of its achievements, especially considering the challenges during the pandemic. A stock split bringing the share price substantially lower has the reverse effect, making the company look less accomplished compared to, say, Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) with its quadruple-digit share price.</p>\n<p>At the same time, while we recognize that calling a stock \"expensive\" based on the absolute price might sound silly, it is not uncommon to come across comments lamenting that tickers with share prices in the high triple-digits are \"expensive\" and those with single-digit share prices are \"bargains\".</p>\n<p>Given the option of purchasing partial shares provided by certain brokerages, the impetus to do a split is further diminished. However, judging from the cryptocurrency market, the notion that the price levels do have an effect on investors' mentality shouldn't be dismissed. For instance, the much lower-priced Dogecoin (DOGE-USD) appears to be more favored whether by short-term traders or longer-term investors compared to Bitcoin (BTC-USD).</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/efb4b1d5343c9d189af17f7d9d72de30\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"446\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Another oft-mentioned reason that companies do stock split is to improve their chances to enter the Dow Jones Industrial Average, one of the oldest and the most commonly followed equity indices. This is because the Dow is a price-weighted measurement stock market index and a high-priced component would skew the index.</p>\n<p>However, The Walt Disney Company is already a Dow component since May 6, 1991. Hence, this would not be a motivation. Nevertheless, those who trade options may welcome a stock split as it makes the option contracts more affordable.</p>\n<p>Whether a DIS stock split would happen this year is another big question.

According to YCharts, The Walt Disney Company (DIS) has had nine stock splits, three between 1985 and 2000, and six prior to 1980.\n\nOn the other hand,Stock Split HistoryandYahoo Financeboth reflect eight stock splits in Disney's history. However, the exercises in 1962 and 2007 seem more like bonus issues than stock splits. The first \"split\" for DIS stock was dated December 18, 1962. This was a 103 for 100 split, meaning that a shareholder with 100 shares of DIS pre-split will subsequently own 103 shares.\n\nSource:StockSplitHistory.com\nAs with all corporate matters, investors should refer to the official announcements to be sure. From Walt Disney's website under the Investor Relations section, the company provided a neat table under the Frequently Asked Questions [FAQs]. The table showed only seven past stock splits that happened between 1956 and 1998. This meant that DIS stock has not split for over two decades. Also, it shows that Walt Disney does not consider the 103 shares for 100 shares and 1,014 shares for 1,000 shares as stock splits.\n\nSource: The Walt Disney Company\nIs Disney Stock Going To Split Again?\nTesla (TSLA) and Nvidia (NVDA) were among the prominent few companies that underwent stock splits recently. When Tesla announced itsfirst-ever stock spliton August 11 last year, the stock jumped from a pre-split price of $1374.4 to as high as $1585 the next day before closing at $1554.75. TSLA went on to clock further gains the rest of the month, appreciating over 80 percent by the end of August 2020.\nNvidia announced in May that its decision to do afour-for-one stock splitwas approved by the board. Its shares were trading above $500 before the announcement and are priced around $750 currently. Nvidia justified the proposed stock split as enabling its shares to become \"more accessible to investors and employees.\"\nThe share price of Disney is currently around $172. It hit a high of $203.02 on March 8, 2021. Even at the peak, the share price was a fraction of what TSLA and NVDA were trading at prior to their stock split announcements. As such, is there an impetus for Disney?\nWell, the last time Disney had a stock split was July 9, 1998, and the pre-split share price was only $111. Apart from one stock split in 1973, the last six stock splits were done when its share price was below $200. A quote often attributed to Mark Twain goes: \"History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes.\" It is probably timely to consider Disney could conduct a fresh stock split as its stock heads back towards $200.\nDisney's Valuation And Prospects Support A Stock Split\nThe Walt Disney Company appeared to be heading for disaster when the COVID-19 pandemic struck last year. Its Disneyland theme parks and hotels around the world had to be shut for extended periods. Its cruise line and retail stores had to close for business as well. Its movies couldn't be shown as theaters were shut while film and TV productions had to be halted too.\nThe challenges that the House of the Mouse faced were unprecedented. In the second fiscal quarter of 2020, its adjusted EPS fell to $0.60 a share from $1.61 a year earlier primarily due to the suspended operations.\nThe management took proactive steps during the second quarter of 2020 to enhance Disney's liquidity position by issuing $6 billion of term debt. A week after the quarter ended, it issued another $925 million in term debt. In terms of net financial debt, however, Disney managed to hold steady and did not exceed the peak of above $50 billion following the addition of debt load to its balance sheet from the 21st Century Fox acquisition in 2019.\n\nAlthough Disney's debt level remains elevated at 28 percent, its debt-to-assets remained close to its five-year average at around 25 percent. It is also comparatively lower than its industry peers. ViacomCBS (VIAC)(VIACA) has a debt-to-assets of 32.5 percent while Comcast (CMCSA) has a debt-to-assets of 37.2 percent. Netflix (NFLX) doesn't own any attraction parks but it has the highest debt-to-assets of 38.8 percent.\n\nLooking at the debt-to-equity ratio, The Walt Disney Company is also the lowest among its peers. This suggests that Disney's capital structure could be conservative in its approach to debt relative to the industry.\n\nHowever, dividend investors may have been disappointed with the decision of Disney's Board to forego the payment of dividends last year. Its last payment of $0.88 per share was on January 16, 2020, for those who had the shares on the record date of December 16, 2019.\n\nBob Chapek, the Chief Executive Officer of Disney, said during the Credit Suisse 23rd Annual Communications Conference held on June 14 that the Board of Directors is prioritizing thefunding of its Direct-to-Consumer[DTC] business. He added that dividends will be \"a part of our long-term capital allocation strategy, for sure.\"\nChapek also revealed what the board is considering:\n\n \"...they'll take into account what they’ve taken into account in the past, which is, what's our strategic investment outlook, where our alternative uses of capital and what are those priorities? What our financial leverage look like coming out of COVID? What the operating environment look like in terms of the release of restrictions that we've got that might constrain our business going forward, or at least give us some time to actually ramp back up to full operating mode, if you will? And what's really just the overall recovery of our businesses across the entire enterprise?\"\n\nFor now, Disney's financials are constrained. Its free cash flow is at a depressed level historically, primarily due to the weak cash from operations which in turn is due to the low revenue. The cash from operations on a trailing-twelve-month basis is at a multi-year low of $4.3 billion. Its new star division, Disney+, is unable to singlehandedly lift the company from its pandemic-impacted operations.\n\nNevertheless, Wall Street analysts are not perturbed by the short-term difficulties faced by Disney. The consensus EPS estimate for the fiscal period ending September 2025 is $8.72, implying a sub-20 times forward P/E, a sharp drop from the one-year forward P/E of 72 times. It's thus likely that the share price would rise to bring the P/E ratio above the \"bargain\" sub-20 times level, increasing the justification for a stock split.\n\nSource: Seeking Alpha Premium\nAdditional Justifications For A DIS Stock Split\nGiven that one of the reasons for doing a stock split is to bring the share price much lower than the current level, double-digit pricing certainly fits the bill. A rhetorical repeat of a 3:1 stock split would bring the share price of Disney to around $57, making it look affordable psychologically, even though it is meaningless from the valuation angle.\nOn the other hand, it appears that Disney prefers the prestige of a larger share price, given that it has long resisted a stock split (the last one being over 20 years ago). The management of Disney might regard DIS stock's elevated share price as a reflection of its achievements, especially considering the challenges during the pandemic. A stock split bringing the share price substantially lower has the reverse effect, making the company look less accomplished compared to, say, Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) with its quadruple-digit share price.\nAt the same time, while we recognize that calling a stock \"expensive\" based on the absolute price might sound silly, it is not uncommon to come across comments lamenting that tickers with share prices in the high triple-digits are \"expensive\" and those with single-digit share prices are \"bargains\".\nGiven the option of purchasing partial shares provided by certain brokerages, the impetus to do a split is further diminished. However, judging from the cryptocurrency market, the notion that the price levels do have an effect on investors' mentality shouldn't be dismissed. For instance, the much lower-priced Dogecoin (DOGE-USD) appears to be more favored whether by short-term traders or longer-term investors compared to Bitcoin (BTC-USD).\n\nAnother oft-mentioned reason that companies do stock split is to improve their chances to enter the Dow Jones Industrial Average, one of the oldest and the most commonly followed equity indices. This is because the Dow is a price-weighted measurement stock market index and a high-priced component would skew the index.\nHowever, The Walt Disney Company is already a Dow component since May 6, 1991. Hence, this would not be a motivation. Nevertheless, those who trade options may welcome a stock split as it makes the option contracts more affordable.\nWhether a DIS stock split would happen this year is another big question. Fundamentally as I discussed earlier, it's a matter of time investors regain confidence in Disney's growth potential. Chart-wise, however, doesn't look good for Disney stock. Its gap in December last year has yet to be filled.\nAt the same time, there appears to be a tail-end formation of a head-and-shoulder pattern, a bearish sign. Investors may wish to consider the mentioned factors instead of just looking at a potential jump should Disney announce a stock split.\nSource: Yahoo Finance","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":350,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
