Many companies faced adversity throughout the pandemic, and some are still recovering, but not BABA. Through the worst economic environment for businesses to navigate in recent times, BABA generated over $100 billion in revenue and $20 billion in net income during their recent fiscal year. While BABA didn't get the memo about businesses facing challenges amidst the pandemic, the market must not have read BABA's earnings report or crunched the numbers.</p>\n<p>There are two Chinese companies I am bullish on, and BABA is my biggest conviction for appreciation. BABA smashed through the $300 share price level at the end of October 2020, but shareholders have been left confused and disappointed since then. It looked like BABA would turn the corner after a horrible end to 2020 as shares appreciated from $222.36 from the close of 2020 to $270.83 in the middle of February 2021. Still, the markets had other plans, and all shares of BABA have done is disappoint shareholders. If you missed the BABA train, it's time to grab your tickets and climb aboard, and if you purchased BABA during its run to $300 or early 2021 rebound, it might be time to add to your holdings. BABA is going to experience tremendous tailwinds from China's population and economic growth over the next several years, and their printing press is going to need more ink.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/86da7b532f25f563d08490ddc43cbede\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"337\"><span>(Source: Alibaba)</span></p>\n<p><b>The Alibaba printing press is open for business, and it spits out billions</b></p>\n<p>How many companies can say their annual revenue through the pandemic exceeded $100 billion? The $100 billion revenue mark is a prestigious club that companies such as&nbsp;Facebook (FB),PepsiCo (PEP),Procter &amp; Gamble (PG),Target (TGT), and&nbsp;Johnson &amp; Johnson (JNJ)&nbsp;are not part of. BABA, on the other hand, witnessed its revenue increase by 52.11% and smash through $100 billion as they generated $109.47 billion in their recent fiscal year. For the year ending March 2019, BABA's revenue increased by $16.25 billion (40.74%) to $56.15 billion, then for the March 2020 fiscal year, revenue increased another $15.82 billion (28.17%) to $71.97 billion. BABA is in the same boat as Alphabet(NASDAQ:GOOG)(GOOGL), FB, and Amazon (AMZN) as they watched the pandemic push more people to go digital which accelerated their businesses. For BABA, the forced transition to digital helped them achieve $37.5 billion (52.11%) in additional revenue as they finished their March 2021 fiscal year with $109.47 billion in revenue.</p>\n<p>Since 2013 BABA has not had a year where their annual revenue increase didn't exceed 25% Year over Year (YoY). When you think about that as a growth rate, it's remarkable for a company of BABA's size as this isn't a company chasing its first billion-dollar revenue year. Over the past 5 fiscal years, BABA's annual revenue has increased by $93.8 billion (408.08%) at an average annual rate of 48.25%. Smaller companies considered growth companies would be jealous of these rates, while many large caps are probably envious.</p>\n<p>BABA isn't a one-trick pony that can only generate tens of billions in revenue. BABA can convert right down to the bottom line. Each year BABA has increased its YoY gross profit by a minimum of 10% since 2013. In 2016 BABA generated $10.35 billion in gross profit and, over the next 5 fiscal years, increased its annual gross profit by $34.84 billion (336.68%). BABA has also never fallen below a 40% gross profit margin, Warren Buffett's magic number, as he indicates in<i>Warren Buffett and the Interpretation of Financial Statements. On page 34 of the Kindle edition,it says:</i></p>\n<blockquote>\n As a very general rule (and there are exceptions): Companies with gross profit margins of 40% or better tend to be companies with some sort of durable competitive advantage. Companies with gross profit margins below 40% tend to be companies in highly competitive industries, where competition is hurting overall profit margins (there are exceptions here, too).\n</blockquote>\n<p>The gross profit margin is important for investors to evaluate because it reveals how much of a company's revenue goes directly to producing it and if they have a moat around their business. BABA's numbers indicate they have a sufficient moat around their business that is hard to penetrate. With close to a decade of generating over 40% in gross profit margins, investors can expect that BABA's moat will protect its business operations for years to come.</p>\n<p>Moving to the bottom line BABA does a great job at generating profits. In their most recent fiscal year, BABA generated $22.98 billion in net income, converting more than 1/5th (20.99%) of their revenue to pure profits. Since 2013 BABA has only had 1 year where net income decreases YoY. With that track record, many options open up for BABA in the future as their cash stockpile continues to increase.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41a5e036f023fa4ced7666e06aa1de6b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"444\"><span>(Source: Alibaba)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba will continue to experience tailwinds as China's population and economy expands</b></p>\n<p>Alibaba&nbsp;achieved one billion annual active consumers globally in the fiscal year that ended in March 2021. BABA has 891 million consumers across China's retail marketplace, local consumer services and digital media and entertainment platforms, and approximately 240 million consumers outside China. BABA's annual active consumers in the China retail marketplaces were 811 million as it grew by 85 million YoY. BABA will focus on developing a digital commerce infrastructure that offers an upgraded consumer experience by seamlessly integrating online and offline. Through BABA's infrastructure, countless retailers have digitally transformed their businesses and created multiple retail formats that have enabled new consumption experiences by leveraging consumer insights and technology. BABA's ecosystem, supply chain, and diversified fulfillment services have facilitated an immense digital transformation. By investing in its infrastructure, BABA's customers can now leverage a full range of high-frequency fulfillment services that include on-demand delivery, same-or-next day delivery, and next-day pick-up services for a full range of consumable and physical products.</p>\n<p>BABA will continue to be one of the cornerstones that supports growth within China's economy, which is benefiting from the acceleration of digitalization in all aspects of life and work. China is projected to be the world's largest economy by 2028. The per-capita income in China is expected to grow by roughly 50% from 2020 to 2025.China's average economic growth&nbsp;has been projected to increase at a rate of 5.7% from 2021 to 2025, then slow to 4.5% from 2026 to 2030. As a result,China&nbsp;is on track to join the top 1/3rd of nations and overtake 56 countries in the per capita income rankings by 2025. By the end of 2022, McKinsey&nbsp;predicts&nbsp;that the middle class could expand to 550 million people which is larger than the entire U.S population.</p>\n<p>If the projections for China are correct, this should mean a windfall of cash lining BABA's coffers. It's a simple recipe; when people make more money, they tend to spend more money to enhance their lives and increase their standard of living. As BABA is a dominant force in China's retail sector, they stand to benefit from a growing economy and a larger middle class. At the end of next year, if China has anywhere close to 550 million individuals in the middle class, I believe BABA's revenue and profits will increase significantly. This trend can provide tailwinds throughout the decade for BABA, and eventually, the market will reward shareholders based on BABA's value proposition.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbde4a092d19118a2d16daabf5c027d7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"463\"><span>(Source: Blomberg)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba has tremendous growth prospects in Cloud as China continues its digitization</b></p>\n<p>Cloud computing has been red hot in the U.S. as the transition from on-prem to cloud has increased the technological capabilities for many organizations. As digitization progresses across the business landscape, cloud providers continue to increase revenue generated from their cloud segments within their overall revenue mix. For example, AWS, the cloud computing division from&nbsp;AMZN, generated $45.37 billion in 2020. Cloud continues to be an exciting sector because the digital transformation is far from being over. Hence, the prospects of new customers are enormous while reoccurring revenue is generated after the transition occurs.</p>\n<p>In China, cloud infrastructure services are still in the early innings as the entire spend was around $15 billion in 2020. In Q1 of 2021, cloud infrastructure services in&nbsp;China&nbsp;grew by 55% YoY as it reached $6 billion. China was the 2nd largest market behind the U.S, accounting for 14% of global investment, up from 12% in Q1 of 2020. With cloud spending and digitization in China increasing, this serves as a major runway for growth in Alibaba Cloud.</p>\n<p>As China's economy expands, businesses will need to become more efficient to support both operations and customer demands. Chinese companies will need to implement infrastructure that can support a digital age of the workforce while supporting cloud services used by consumers for consumption. If China passes the U.S. as the world's largest economy in the second half of this decade, the amount of growth needed in cloud services will be immense. BABA is already the leader in cloud infrastructure services in China as their 39.8% market share accounted for $2.39 billion of the $6 billion spent in Q1 2021. Over the previous 6 quarters, cloud infrastructure spending has increased by roughly $2.3 billion (76.67%) in China. Based on cloud's current trajectory, quarterly revenue is on track to double over the next 2 years, putting Q1 2023 revenue at $10.6 billion. If BABA has a 35% market share, their Q1 2023 would be $3.71 billion, placing their 2023 revenue for cloud at $14.84 billion without factoring in any growth in 2023. From a cloud aspect, China's future spending is very exciting, and BABA will be one of the major benefactors.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1759b81ce463d503a165d901e2e50d7c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"728\"><span>(Source: Canalys)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba has stellar financial metrics and is undervalued compared to the U.S. tech conglomerates</b></p>\n<p>For this comparison, I am going to use AMZN and GOOGL as they have been establishing their dominance in the U.S. for more than a decade. First, here are the raw numbers for AMZN, BABA, and GOOGL:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>AMZN</li>\n <li>BABA</li>\n <li>GOOGL</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The market currently places a multiple of 17.03x on AMZN's equity compared to its market cap, while its revenue multiple is 4.2x. GOOGL has a multiple of 7.17x on its equity and 8.39x on its revenue compared to market cap. AMZN and GOOGL's market caps exceed $1.5 trillion, while BABA's sits at $575.57 billion. The market is placing a 3.5x multiple on BABA's equity and 5.26x on its revenue compared to the market cap. Thus, the market is severely discounting BABA's equity and revenue generation. BABA's equity is worth 28.58% of its market cap, while AMZN's equity is equivalent to 5.87%, and GOOGL's is 13.94% of its market cap. The current discount placed on BABA's equity could create an additional tailwind for shareholders in the future.</p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>It's hard to dismiss the growth opportunities some companies in China are presenting, especially after the recent decline in share prices. However, I believe shares of BABA are currently undervalued based on their current financial metrics and growth rates. China's economy and the amount of capital allocated to cloud service infrastructure are expected to grow substantially over the years. These will create powerful tailwinds for BABA throughout this decade. As a result, I think shareholders have been allowed to establish a BABA or dollar cost average position at a discounted price. I plan on continuing to add shares to my position while the market is discounting BABA.</p>","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>Alibaba: Can BABA Get Back To $300?

When you think about that as a growth rate, it's remarkable for a company of BABA's size as this isn't a company chasing its first billion-dollar revenue year. Over the past 5 fiscal years, BABA's annual revenue has increased by $93.8 billion (408.08%) at an average annual rate of 48.25%. Smaller companies considered growth companies would be jealous of these rates, while many large caps are probably envious.\nBABA isn't a one-trick pony that can only generate tens of billions in revenue. BABA can convert right down to the bottom line. Each year BABA has increased its YoY gross profit by a minimum of 10% since 2013. In 2016 BABA generated $10.35 billion in gross profit and, over the next 5 fiscal years, increased its annual gross profit by $34.84 billion (336.68%). BABA has also never fallen below a 40% gross profit margin, Warren Buffett's magic number, as he indicates inWarren Buffett and the Interpretation of Financial Statements. On page 34 of the Kindle edition,it says:\n\n As a very general rule (and there are exceptions): Companies with gross profit margins of 40% or better tend to be companies with some sort of durable competitive advantage. Companies with gross profit margins below 40% tend to be companies in highly competitive industries, where competition is hurting overall profit margins (there are exceptions here, too).\n\nThe gross profit margin is important for investors to evaluate because it reveals how much of a company's revenue goes directly to producing it and if they have a moat around their business. BABA's numbers indicate they have a sufficient moat around their business that is hard to penetrate. With close to a decade of generating over 40% in gross profit margins, investors can expect that BABA's moat will protect its business operations for years to come.\nMoving to the bottom line BABA does a great job at generating profits. In their most recent fiscal year, BABA generated $22.98 billion in net income, converting more than 1/5th (20.99%) of their revenue to pure profits. Since 2013 BABA has only had 1 year where net income decreases YoY. With that track record, many options open up for BABA in the future as their cash stockpile continues to increase.\n(Source: Alibaba)\nAlibaba will continue to experience tailwinds as China's population and economy expands\nAlibaba achieved one billion annual active consumers globally in the fiscal year that ended in March 2021. BABA has 891 million consumers across China's retail marketplace, local consumer services and digital media and entertainment platforms, and approximately 240 million consumers outside China. BABA's annual active consumers in the China retail marketplaces were 811 million as it grew by 85 million YoY. BABA will focus on developing a digital commerce infrastructure that offers an upgraded consumer experience by seamlessly integrating online and offline. Through BABA's infrastructure, countless retailers have digitally transformed their businesses and created multiple retail formats that have enabled new consumption experiences by leveraging consumer insights and technology. BABA's ecosystem, supply chain, and diversified fulfillment services have facilitated an immense digital transformation. By investing in its infrastructure, BABA's customers can now leverage a full range of high-frequency fulfillment services that include on-demand delivery, same-or-next day delivery, and next-day pick-up services for a full range of consumable and physical products.\nBABA will continue to be one of the cornerstones that supports growth within China's economy, which is benefiting from the acceleration of digitalization in all aspects of life and work. China is projected to be the world's largest economy by 2028. The per-capita income in China is expected to grow by roughly 50% from 2020 to 2025.China's average economic growth has been projected to increase at a rate of 5.7% from 2021 to 2025, then slow to 4.5% from 2026 to 2030. As a result,China is on track to join the top 1/3rd of nations and overtake 56 countries in the per capita income rankings by 2025. By the end of 2022, McKinsey predicts that the middle class could expand to 550 million people which is larger than the entire U.S population.\nIf the projections for China are correct, this should mean a windfall of cash lining BABA's coffers. It's a simple recipe; when people make more money, they tend to spend more money to enhance their lives and increase their standard of living. As BABA is a dominant force in China's retail sector, they stand to benefit from a growing economy and a larger middle class. At the end of next year, if China has anywhere close to 550 million individuals in the middle class, I believe BABA's revenue and profits will increase significantly. This trend can provide tailwinds throughout the decade for BABA, and eventually, the market will reward shareholders based on BABA's value proposition.\n(Source: Blomberg)\nAlibaba has tremendous growth prospects in Cloud as China continues its digitization\nCloud computing has been red hot in the U.S. as the transition from on-prem to cloud has increased the technological capabilities for many organizations. As digitization progresses across the business landscape, cloud providers continue to increase revenue generated from their cloud segments within their overall revenue mix. For example, AWS, the cloud computing division from AMZN, generated $45.37 billion in 2020. Cloud continues to be an exciting sector because the digital transformation is far from being over. Hence, the prospects of new customers are enormous while reoccurring revenue is generated after the transition occurs.\nIn China, cloud infrastructure services are still in the early innings as the entire spend was around $15 billion in 2020. In Q1 of 2021, cloud infrastructure services in China grew by 55% YoY as it reached $6 billion. China was the 2nd largest market behind the U.S, accounting for 14% of global investment, up from 12% in Q1 of 2020. With cloud spending and digitization in China increasing, this serves as a major runway for growth in Alibaba Cloud.\nAs China's economy expands, businesses will need to become more efficient to support both operations and customer demands. Chinese companies will need to implement infrastructure that can support a digital age of the workforce while supporting cloud services used by consumers for consumption. If China passes the U.S. as the world's largest economy in the second half of this decade, the amount of growth needed in cloud services will be immense. BABA is already the leader in cloud infrastructure services in China as their 39.8% market share accounted for $2.39 billion of the $6 billion spent in Q1 2021. Over the previous 6 quarters, cloud infrastructure spending has increased by roughly $2.3 billion (76.67%) in China. Based on cloud's current trajectory, quarterly revenue is on track to double over the next 2 years, putting Q1 2023 revenue at $10.6 billion. If BABA has a 35% market share, their Q1 2023 would be $3.71 billion, placing their 2023 revenue for cloud at $14.84 billion without factoring in any growth in 2023. From a cloud aspect, China's future spending is very exciting, and BABA will be one of the major benefactors.\n(Source: Canalys)\nAlibaba has stellar financial metrics and is undervalued compared to the U.S. tech conglomerates\nFor this comparison, I am going to use AMZN and GOOGL as they have been establishing their dominance in the U.S. for more than a decade. First, here are the raw numbers for AMZN, BABA, and GOOGL:\n\nAMZN\nBABA\nGOOGL\n\nThe market currently places a multiple of 17.03x on AMZN's equity compared to its market cap, while its revenue multiple is 4.2x. GOOGL has a multiple of 7.17x on its equity and 8.39x on its revenue compared to market cap. AMZN and GOOGL's market caps exceed $1.5 trillion, while BABA's sits at $575.57 billion. The market is placing a 3.5x multiple on BABA's equity and 5.26x on its revenue compared to the market cap. Thus, the market is severely discounting BABA's equity and revenue generation. BABA's equity is worth 28.58% of its market cap, while AMZN's equity is equivalent to 5.87%, and GOOGL's is 13.94% of its market cap. The current discount placed on BABA's equity could create an additional tailwind for shareholders in the future.\nConclusion\nIt's hard to dismiss the growth opportunities some companies in China are presenting, especially after the recent decline in share prices. However, I believe shares of BABA are currently undervalued based on their current financial metrics and growth rates. China's economy and the amount of capital allocated to cloud service infrastructure are expected to grow substantially over the years. These will create powerful tailwinds for BABA throughout this decade. As a result, I think shareholders have been allowed to establish a BABA or dollar cost average position at a discounted price. I plan on continuing to add shares to my position while the market is discounting BABA.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":196,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184382598,"gmtCreate":1623684501114,"gmtModify":1704208716628,"author":{"id":"3581666175913688","authorId":"3581666175913688","name":"happyfarmer","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581666175913688","authorIdStr":"3581666175913688"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"He keep the music playing","listText":"He keep the music playing","text":"He keep the music playing","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/184382598","repostId":"2143892897","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2143892897","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1623650088,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2143892897?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-14 13:54","market":"fut","language":"en","title":"Bitcoin jumps after Musk says Tesla could use it again","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2143892897","media":"Reuters","summary":"* Musk flags Tesla may resume BTC transactions   * Musk says Tesla sold about 10% of BTC holdings as","content":"<html><body><p>* Musk flags Tesla may resume BTC transactions</p><p>   * Musk says Tesla sold about 10% of BTC holdings as liquidity test</p><p>   * BTC price jumps close to $40k; ETH price near $2,500</p><p>    SINGAPORE, June 14 (Reuters) - Bitcoin hit a two-week peak just shy of $40,000 on Monday, after another weekend reacting to tweets from Tesla boss Elon Musk, who fended off criticism over his market influence and said Tesla sold bitcoin but may resume transactions using it.</p><p>   Bitcoin has gyrated to Musk's views for months since Tesla announced a $1.5 billion bitcoin purchase in February and said it would take the cryptocurrency in payment.

The company has deep pockets to continue growing.\nThe valuation that shares trade at is compressed, but seems poised to rebound. Fundamentals eventually steer the share price.\n\nE-commerce has been a powerful investing theme throughout the pandemic. While many stocks that sell over the internet have been thriving, Chinese conglomerate Alibaba Group Holding Limited (BABA) has been a notable laggard. Shares of Alibaba are in the red over the past year, while the S&P 500 has ripped higher, gaining 32%.\nAlibaba has been caught in some controversy surrounding thefailed IPOof Ant Group and its founderJack Ma. While the market has focused on these distractions, the actual underlying business of Alibaba is performing at a high level. With strong fundamentals and rapidly growing free cash flow, it's only a matter of time before the market begins to focus on what matters...the business. We will outline our investment thesis below.\nFree Cash Flow Growth Is Stellar\nAlibaba is a frequently covered business on Seeking Alpha, so I won't rehash the basics about the business or dive into the political controversy that has plagued the stock. Instead, I want to focus on the financial inflection point that Alibaba has recently hit.\nThe company ended its fiscal year at the end of March. What we see is a diversified business with several growing segments that align with macroeconomic trends.\nsource: Alibaba Group Holding Limited\nThe largest revenue contributor, of course, is the company's retail operations. While its commerce segment continues to narrate revenue growth (total core commerce grew 2020 revenues 42% versus company revenues growing 41%), some smaller segments are showing strong growth.\nFor example, Alibaba's cloud computing operations grew 50% in 2020, and its new retail and direct sales businesses grew 94% year-over-year. What is most promising is that Alibaba is accelerating its free cash flow growth in recent years. The company's $26.35 billion in 2021 FCF is a 29% year-over-year jump from 2020. Alibaba grew FCF 25% from 2019 to 2020.\nsource: Alibaba Holding Group Limited\nWith $72 billion in cash on hand as of March 31st and the business generating more than $26 billion in free cash flow, Alibaba has deep pockets to develop its growing business segments and seek out opportunities to create new growth with M&A or other developments.\nHow Long Can Alibaba Stay \"Cheap\"?\nIt's hard to understand just how beaten down Alibaba's stock is until you look at things from a free cash flow perspective. Alibaba is currently trading with an FCF yield approaching 6%. By comparison, the next highest FCF yield is Amazon (AMZN), with a yield of just 1.3%.\nsource: YCharts\nThis is a tremendous discount to Alibaba's peer group, despite the company accelerating FCF growth and having a ton of cash on hand. And because Alibaba is a healthy and growing company, the stock is poised to become even more attractively valued.\nsource: Seeking Alpha\nThe company is estimated to continue growing revenues at a swift clip, approaching $210 billion in annual revenue over the next three years. If we apply the company's 24% conversion rate of revenue to FCF, that will give us 2024 FCF of $50 billion. In other words, an FCF yield of 8.6% on today's share price.

That's how much it will cost to purchase the newest sandwich at Disneyland Resort <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/DIS\">$(DIS)$</a>. \n</p>\n<p>\n  The new offering has already been dubbed as \"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of the most expensive sandwiches in the world,\" which is likely <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the reasons it's in existence. \n</p>\n<p>\n  It will be offered at Pym Test Kitchen , a new restaurant that opens on June 4 along with the Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure Park. The new section of the park is based off the Avengers films from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Pym Test Kitchen, in particular, is based on the scientists featured in the Ant-Man films. In the movies, Hank Pym and Janet van Dyne develop technology that can cause objects to shrink or grow in size. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Like many of the other items on the restaurant's menu, the $100 Family-sized \"Pym-ini\" is extra, extra large. \n</p>\n<p>\n  And therein lies the catch: According to Disney, it's not what's in the sandwich that makes it cost so much, it's because it's meant to serve 6 to 8 people. \n</p>\n<p>\n  \"Disney has been moving towards Instagram-ready <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/FB\">$(FB)$</a> food for quite some time,\" said Len Testa, Len Testa,  president of travel website Touring Plans . \"Take a look at any of their snack offerings and you can see what the kitchen thinks \"looks good\" is at least as important as taste.\" \n</p>\n<p>\n  So what's in the sandwich? The panini features salami, rosemary ham, provolone and sundried tomato spread on a focaccia, along with a marinara dipping sauce, potato bites and an arugula salad. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Anyone looking to try the sandwich who doesn't have an entire family to feed can purchase a scaled-down version of the sandwich for $14.49. \n</p>\n<p>\n  (Disneyland did not return a request for comment.) \n</p>\n<p>\n  Other items on the restaurant's menu include a \"Not so Little\" chicken sandwich, which features an entire fried chicken breast, and a Caesar salad that comes with a single, enormous crouton. \n</p>\n<p>\n  While the Pym-ini's $100 price tag may be eye-popping, it doesn't make for the most expensive meal at Disneyland Resort. At Steakhouse 55, a fine-dining restaurant at Disneyland Hotel that's still temporarily closed due to the pandemic, diners typically can purchase  a $138 38-ounce Porterhouse steak that serves two people. \n</p>\n<p>\n  And over at Walt Disney World in Florida, the Takumi-Tei restaurant in the Japan pavilion at the EPCOT theme park has multiple menu items that top $100, including a Wagyu tenderloin and an omakase sushi service. Like Steakhouse 55, Takumi-Tei remains closed at this time. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Pym Test Kitchen, unlike Steakhouse 55 and Takumi-Tei, is a counter-service restaurant, rather than a table-service eatery. \n</p>\n<p>\n  \"It's fast food,\" Testa said, adding that in that category of restaurants, \"the next-most expensive thing in a Disney theme park seems to be either the pot roast or the chicken platter at the Plaza Inn in Disneyland, which is just under $20 each.\" \n</p>\n<p>\n  Visitors with even more cash to burn could consider dining at Disneyland's 21 Royal, an exclusive restaurant located in the New Orleans Square section of the theme park. Reservations at that restaurant reportedly cost $15,000, or around $1,250 per person, according to food website Eater . \n</p>\n<p>\n  Oh, and the actual most expensive sandwich in the world? That honor, according to Guinness World Records , goes to the $214 \"Quintessential Grilled Cheese\" from New York restaurant Serendipity 3, which is made with Dom Perignon champagne and gold flakes. \n</p>\n<p>\n</p>\n<p>\n  -Jacob Passy; 415-439-6400; AskNewswires@dowjones.com \n</p>\n<pre>\n \n</pre>\n<p>\n  <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/END\">$(END)$</a> Dow Jones Newswires\n</p>\n<p>\n  June 01, 2021 11:46 ET (15:46 GMT)\n</p>\n<p>\n  Copyright (c) 2021 Dow Jones &amp; Company, Inc.\n</p>\n</font></body></html>","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>Disney's newest sandwich costs an eye-popping $100 -- but there's a more expensive item on the menu</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\">\nDisney's newest sandwich costs an eye-popping $100 -- but there's a more expensive item on the menu\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2021-06-01 23:46</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><body><font class=\"NormalMinus1\" face=\"Arial\">\n<p>\nMW Disney's newest sandwich costs an eye-popping $100 -- but there's a more expensive item on the menu\n</p>\n<p>\n  Jacob Passy \n</p>\n<p>\n  It will debut in June, but there's a catch to the headline-grabbing price tag \n</p>\n<p>\n  Ready to fork over $100?

Yes, along with these other stocks that are cash-flow winners\n</p>\n<p>\n  By Philip van Doorn \n</p>\n<p>\n  Among the largest U.S. companies, Amazon and Facebook have grown their cash flow rapidly, which helps investors play it safe. \n</p>\n<p>\n  If we're heading into a time of increased risk in the stock market, investors might be well-served by owning shares of companies that not only generate a lot of cash, but also grow that money rapidly. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Below are two lists of large companies that have shown the highest free-cash-flow growth rates over the past three and five years. \n</p>\n<p>\n  A rapid pace of economic growth is generally a good thing for stock investors. But we're in a period of unusually aggressive policies by the Federal Reserve to spur that growth. These policies have included a federal funds rate with a target range of zero to 0.25% and a continual increase in the central bank's holdings of U.S. Treasury securities and mortgage-backed bonds. But with increasing inflation, the Fed may act sooner than previously expected to quell price increases -- and that could lead to an uncertain period for stocks. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Read:Fed takes baby steps toward scaling back its bond purchases  \n</p>\n<p>\n  Three-year cash-flow winners \n</p>\n<p>\n  Many professional investors emphasize cash flow when analyzing companies. Earnings can be a tough nut because there are so many <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a>-time noncash items that can affect a company's bottom line. A company can also book revenue while it is waiting to be paid -- this means it shows a profit for selling something even though the cash hasn't been received. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett has explained the importance of cash flow in his annual letters to shareholders, including the 2020 letter , when he wrote that the company's insurance businesses had an important industry advantage: \"Overall, the insurance fleet operates with far more capital than is deployed by any of its competitors worldwide. That financial strength, coupled with the huge flow of cash Berkshire annually receives from its non-insurance businesses, allows our insurance companies to safely follow an equity-heavy investment strategy not feasible for the overwhelming majority of insurers.\" \n</p>\n<p>\n  To identify large, stable companies growing their cash flow most quickly, we looked at free cash flow data provided by FactSet and compound annual growth rates (CAGR) for three and five years. \n</p>\n<p>\n  A company's free cash flow is its remaining cash flow after planned capital expenditures. It is money that can be deployed to expand the business, make acquisitions, buy back shares, raise dividends or for other corporate purposes. \n</p>\n<p>\n  A blind focus on the highest free-cash-flow CAGR would have the problem of highlighting companies that had unusually low cash flows for the beginning period. So for the three-year free-cash-flow CAGR ranking we began with the 50 companies in the S&amp;P 500 Index  with the highest free cash flow for calendar 2017, and then ranked them by FCF CAGR for three years through 2020. We used calendar years because many companies have fiscal years that don't match the calendar. \n</p>\n<p>\n  The largest company on the list of 50 was Apple Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">$(AAPL)$</a>, which had $52.91 billion in free cash flow in calendar 2017. The company's free cash flow increased to $80.22 billion in 2020, for a three-year CAGR of 14.9%. But Apple didn't make the top 10 list for 2003 -- it was ranked 14th. More about Apple below. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Here are the 10 S&amp;P 500 companies from the list described above with the highest free-cash-flow CAGR for three years through 2020. The annual data is in millions of dollars: \n</p>\n<p>\n  You can scroll the table to see how each company's free cash flow increased or declined over the past three years. The CAGR calculation only uses the 2020 and 2017 year-end numbers. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Amazon.com Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">$(AMZN)$</a> was way out in front for three-year FCF CAGR through 2020 among the 50 companies in the S&amp;P 500 with the highest FCF at the end of 2017. You can see below that it ranked second on the five-year list. \n</p>\n<p>\n  For three years, Verizon Communications Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VZ\">$(VZ)$</a> ranked second, with CVS Health Corp. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CVS.AU\">$(CVS.AU)$</a> in third place. \n</p>\n<p>\n  CVS underlines the imperfection of any <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-point stock screen. The company made the three- and five-year lists because of the increase in cash flow from its transformative acquisition of Aetna in November 2018. After a few more years, it will be interesting to see how rapidly the combined company is able to grow its cash flow from a 2019 baseline. \n</p>\n<p>\n  After the five-year list, there are more comments about companies that made the top 10 for both periods. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Five-year cash flow winners \n</p>\n<p>\n  For the five-year free-cash-flow CAGR ranking we began with the 50 companies in the S&amp;P 500 Index with the highest free cash flow for calendar 2015, and then ranked them by FCF CAGR for three years through 2020. \n</p>\n<p>\n  During calendar 2015, Apple had the highest free cash flow of $63.37 billion among S&amp;P 500 companies. That's much higher than the company's $52.91 billion in FCF in 2017. It also explains why the company's five-year FCF CAGR through 2020 was only 4.8% and why its three-year CAGR was so much higher at 14.9%. This illustrates the importance of seeing the data for each year, even though the CAGR calculations only make use of the starting and ending data points. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Here are the five-year CAGR winners, including the FCF figures for six years that you can see if you scroll the table: \n</p>\n<p>\n  Facebook Inc. (FB) is the five-year winner, increasing its free cash flow to $23.63 billion in 2020 from $6.08 billion in 2015 for a CAGR of 31.2%. The company was ranked 19th for three-year FCF CAGR. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Amazon ranked second for five-year CAGR and was one of several companies making both the five- and three-year top-10 lists: \n</p>\n<p>\n  As explained above, any stock screen based on one element has its limits. It is very important to do your own research and form your own opinion before committing to any investment. \n</p>\n<p>\n  Don't miss: Amazon is a cheap stock for long-term investors.

That financial strength, coupled with the huge flow of cash Berkshire annually receives from its non-insurance businesses, allows our insurance companies to safely follow an equity-heavy investment strategy not feasible for the overwhelming majority of insurers.\" \n\n\n  To identify large, stable companies growing their cash flow most quickly, we looked at free cash flow data provided by FactSet and compound annual growth rates (CAGR) for three and five years. \n\n\n  A company's free cash flow is its remaining cash flow after planned capital expenditures. It is money that can be deployed to expand the business, make acquisitions, buy back shares, raise dividends or for other corporate purposes. \n\n\n  A blind focus on the highest free-cash-flow CAGR would have the problem of highlighting companies that had unusually low cash flows for the beginning period. So for the three-year free-cash-flow CAGR ranking we began with the 50 companies in the S&P 500 Index  with the highest free cash flow for calendar 2017, and then ranked them by FCF CAGR for three years through 2020. We used calendar years because many companies have fiscal years that don't match the calendar. \n\n\n  The largest company on the list of 50 was Apple Inc. $(AAPL)$, which had $52.91 billion in free cash flow in calendar 2017. The company's free cash flow increased to $80.22 billion in 2020, for a three-year CAGR of 14.9%. But Apple didn't make the top 10 list for 2003 -- it was ranked 14th. More about Apple below. \n\n\n  Here are the 10 S&P 500 companies from the list described above with the highest free-cash-flow CAGR for three years through 2020. The annual data is in millions of dollars: \n\n\n  You can scroll the table to see how each company's free cash flow increased or declined over the past three years. The CAGR calculation only uses the 2020 and 2017 year-end numbers. \n\n\n  Amazon.com Inc. $(AMZN)$ was way out in front for three-year FCF CAGR through 2020 among the 50 companies in the S&P 500 with the highest FCF at the end of 2017. You can see below that it ranked second on the five-year list. \n\n\n  For three years, Verizon Communications Inc. $(VZ)$ ranked second, with CVS Health Corp. $(CVS.AU)$ in third place. \n\n\n  CVS underlines the imperfection of any one-point stock screen. The company made the three- and five-year lists because of the increase in cash flow from its transformative acquisition of Aetna in November 2018. After a few more years, it will be interesting to see how rapidly the combined company is able to grow its cash flow from a 2019 baseline. \n\n\n  After the five-year list, there are more comments about companies that made the top 10 for both periods. \n\n\n  Five-year cash flow winners \n\n\n  For the five-year free-cash-flow CAGR ranking we began with the 50 companies in the S&P 500 Index with the highest free cash flow for calendar 2015, and then ranked them by FCF CAGR for three years through 2020. \n\n\n  During calendar 2015, Apple had the highest free cash flow of $63.37 billion among S&P 500 companies. That's much higher than the company's $52.91 billion in FCF in 2017. It also explains why the company's five-year FCF CAGR through 2020 was only 4.8% and why its three-year CAGR was so much higher at 14.9%. This illustrates the importance of seeing the data for each year, even though the CAGR calculations only make use of the starting and ending data points. \n\n\n  Here are the five-year CAGR winners, including the FCF figures for six years that you can see if you scroll the table: \n\n\n  Facebook Inc. (FB) is the five-year winner, increasing its free cash flow to $23.63 billion in 2020 from $6.08 billion in 2015 for a CAGR of 31.2%. The company was ranked 19th for three-year FCF CAGR. \n\n\n  Amazon ranked second for five-year CAGR and was one of several companies making both the five- and three-year top-10 lists: \n\n\n  As explained above, any stock screen based on one element has its limits. It is very important to do your own research and form your own opinion before committing to any investment. \n\n\n  Don't miss: Amazon is a cheap stock for long-term investors. These numbers tell you why . \n\n\n  -Philip van Doorn; 415-439-6400; AskNewswires@dowjones.com \n\n\n \n\n\n$(END)$ Dow Jones Newswires\n\n\n  May 29, 2021 11:18 ET (15:18 GMT)\n\n\n  Copyright (c) 2021 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":172,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":137923599,"gmtCreate":1622287575111,"gmtModify":1704182719627,"author":{"id":"3581666175913688","authorId":"3581666175913688","name":"happyfarmer","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581666175913688","authorIdStr":"3581666175913688"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"solid companies,&nbsp; no&nbsp;dogecoin or&nbsp; crypto related","listText":"solid companies,&nbsp; no&nbsp;dogecoin or&nbsp; crypto related","text":"solid companies, no dogecoin or crypto related","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/137923599","repostId":"1150838200","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1150838200","pubTimestamp":1622180642,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1150838200?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-28 13:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Quantum Computing Stocks to Watch","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1150838200","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Quantum computing offers an opportunity for investors, and this future is not so far away.\n\nTechnolo","content":"<blockquote>\n Quantum computing offers an opportunity for investors, and this future is not so far away.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Technological advancements are evolving quickly, making it hard to keep up.

The Apple Maven discusses what traders, speculators and investors should expect when betting on AAPL.</p>\n<p>The&nbsp;Street’s&nbsp;Jim Cramer has said it repeatedly: own Apple stock (ticker $AAPL), don’t trade it. Today, the Apple Maven revisits this idea to help determine how long one should hold Apple shares.</p>\n<p>Below is an analysis of how much one might expect to gain if (1) day-trading, (2) speculating on, or (3) investing in Apple stock. Obviously, since the future is uncertain, the analysis is based on historical data – which I believe can at least provide a blueprint for future share price performance.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6726ed885cefb1c7f81fe0ac2f6eff7c\" tg-width=\"799\" tg-height=\"466\"><span>Figure 1: AAPL trading chart.</span></p>\n<p><b>#1. AAPL investors: long-term winners</b></p>\n<p>As I mentioned&nbsp;in my recent “Apple Stock 101” article, investors that bought Apple shares in December 1980 (i.e. the IPO date) and held onto them until now realized impressive annualized gains of&nbsp;<b>19%</b>. Clearly, AAPL has been a good asset to “get and forget” over Apple’s tenure as a publicly-traded company.</p>\n<p>But allow me to work with more realistic time frames. For this exercise, I will consider “investors” those who hold AAPL for one year. To be clear, many might consider twelve months a minimum investment horizon to qualify as long term.</p>\n<p>Also, I am limiting my analysis to the past 20 years, since the stock used to be much riskier and more volatile in its first couple of decades of existence than it is now. Apple stock’s returns have been even better during this period that begins with the end of the dot-com correction:<b>35%</b>&nbsp;annualized.</p>\n<p>The chart below shows the distribution of&nbsp;<i>weekly returns</i>&nbsp;earned by an Apple stock investor, using the parameters described above, if the bet had been made on any give day since May 2001.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d658a73af3c004123aa9e0d29906ebe7\" tg-width=\"703\" tg-height=\"418\"><span>Figure 2: AAPL investor's weekly return distribution.</span></p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Key observation</b>: if held for one year, and based on historical observations alone (i.e. not on modeled projections for the future), Apple stock can arguably be expected to produce weekly returns of about +0.5% to +1.0%. Rarely has the stock been a big-time winner or loser – say, weekly returns of more than +2% or less than -1% on average – when the investment horizon is one year.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>#2. AAPL speculators: higher octane</b></p>\n<p>Speculators have had a bit different experience from the above. Here, I characterize as “speculator” someone who buys AAPL and sells it ten weeks later, or roughly two and a half months after the purchase date.</p>\n<p>See histogram below. For ease of comparison with the weekly return analysis immediately above, I kept the chart’s scale unchanged.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/209f65d605439ca2f039619f15f5fc68\" tg-width=\"690\" tg-height=\"404\"><span>Figure 3: AAPL speculator's weekly return distribution.</span></p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Key observation</b>: the distribution above is still somewhat bell-shaped, meaning that a weekly return of between +0.5% and +1.0% is still quite common. However, notice the much “fatter tails”. The probability of larger weekly gains or losses tends to increase when Apple stock is held for ten weeks rather than one year.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>#3. AAPL day-traders: buckle up!</b></p>\n<p>Lastly, day-traders that buy Apple stock and sell it within less than a full week have been playing a completely different game. Once again, the histogram below depicts the average<i>weekly return</i>in AAPL when the timeframe is compressed to no more than 7 days. The chart scale, again, remains unchanged for ease of comparison.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f77febcce32d4bcc45cf275cc5936671\" tg-width=\"657\" tg-height=\"395\"><span>Figure 4: AAPL day traders's weekly return distribution.</span></p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Key observation</b>: when buying and selling AAPL in a matter of days, it is most common for the bets to result in much more sizable weekly gains or losses: less than -2.0% or more than +2.0%. Earning long-term average gains of about +0.5% to +1.0%, in these cases, has been a rarity.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>What to make of it all</b></p>\n<p>Back to the original question: how long should Apple stock be held? Based on historical analysis, the answer really depends on personal goals. Here is the roadmap:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>If merely seeking long-term capital appreciation that might be market-beating, but probably not by a very wide margin, buying AAPL and holding it for a year or more is highly advisable.

The Apple Maven discusses what traders, speculators and investors should expect when betting on AAPL.\nThe Street’s Jim Cramer has said it repeatedly: own Apple stock (ticker $AAPL), don’t trade it. Today, the Apple Maven revisits this idea to help determine how long one should hold Apple shares.\nBelow is an analysis of how much one might expect to gain if (1) day-trading, (2) speculating on, or (3) investing in Apple stock. Obviously, since the future is uncertain, the analysis is based on historical data – which I believe can at least provide a blueprint for future share price performance.\nFigure 1: AAPL trading chart.\n#1. AAPL investors: long-term winners\nAs I mentioned in my recent “Apple Stock 101” article, investors that bought Apple shares in December 1980 (i.e. the IPO date) and held onto them until now realized impressive annualized gains of 19%. Clearly, AAPL has been a good asset to “get and forget” over Apple’s tenure as a publicly-traded company.\nBut allow me to work with more realistic time frames. For this exercise, I will consider “investors” those who hold AAPL for one year. To be clear, many might consider twelve months a minimum investment horizon to qualify as long term.\nAlso, I am limiting my analysis to the past 20 years, since the stock used to be much riskier and more volatile in its first couple of decades of existence than it is now. Apple stock’s returns have been even better during this period that begins with the end of the dot-com correction:35% annualized.\nThe chart below shows the distribution of weekly returns earned by an Apple stock investor, using the parameters described above, if the bet had been made on any give day since May 2001.\nFigure 2: AAPL investor's weekly return distribution.\n\nKey observation: if held for one year, and based on historical observations alone (i.e. not on modeled projections for the future), Apple stock can arguably be expected to produce weekly returns of about +0.5% to +1.0%. Rarely has the stock been a big-time winner or loser – say, weekly returns of more than +2% or less than -1% on average – when the investment horizon is one year.\n\n#2. AAPL speculators: higher octane\nSpeculators have had a bit different experience from the above. Here, I characterize as “speculator” someone who buys AAPL and sells it ten weeks later, or roughly two and a half months after the purchase date.\nSee histogram below. For ease of comparison with the weekly return analysis immediately above, I kept the chart’s scale unchanged.\nFigure 3: AAPL speculator's weekly return distribution.\n\nKey observation: the distribution above is still somewhat bell-shaped, meaning that a weekly return of between +0.5% and +1.0% is still quite common. However, notice the much “fatter tails”. The probability of larger weekly gains or losses tends to increase when Apple stock is held for ten weeks rather than one year.\n\n#3. AAPL day-traders: buckle up!\nLastly, day-traders that buy Apple stock and sell it within less than a full week have been playing a completely different game. Once again, the histogram below depicts the averageweekly returnin AAPL when the timeframe is compressed to no more than 7 days. The chart scale, again, remains unchanged for ease of comparison.\nFigure 4: AAPL day traders's weekly return distribution.\n\nKey observation: when buying and selling AAPL in a matter of days, it is most common for the bets to result in much more sizable weekly gains or losses: less than -2.0% or more than +2.0%. Earning long-term average gains of about +0.5% to +1.0%, in these cases, has been a rarity.\n\nWhat to make of it all\nBack to the original question: how long should Apple stock be held? Based on historical analysis, the answer really depends on personal goals. Here is the roadmap:\n\nIf merely seeking long-term capital appreciation that might be market-beating, but probably not by a very wide margin, buying AAPL and holding it for a year or more is highly advisable. Speculative bets of a few weeks here and there (say, selling into strength and buying into weakness based on price action) could help to boost returns, if the trades are well executed.\nIf seeking outsized gains, trading AAPL within days would be the best approach. However, this strategy is also the riskiest, as it could lead to outsized losses instead. I believe that day-trading Apple stock is the least advisable approach to most people, but possibly an interesting proposition for a select few.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":240,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":139193173,"gmtCreate":1621598182792,"gmtModify":1704360300494,"author":{"id":"3581666175913688","authorId":"3581666175913688","name":"happyfarmer","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581666175913688","authorIdStr":"3581666175913688"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Will

Images</span></p>\n<p>Technology stocks, and particularly growth-oriented technology stocks, have been pummeled since February. Interest rates have been blamed and while that’s certainly part of it, there were signs of excessive valuations all over the place after a year of almost unbelievable gains. While this period of selling has been painful, it has also created opportunities.</p>\n<p>One such opportunity is in OG smartphone legend&nbsp;<b>Apple</b>&nbsp;(AAPL), a stock that has traded sideways since last September. Apple’s world-beating market capitalization means on a percentage basis, its growth must slow down. But I think the stock is underpricing the company’s potential, and that an upside breakout is coming.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9651cd87ec3d2605b8580c3db46a3622\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"615\"><span>Source: StockCharts</span></p>\n<p>We’ll start with the daily chart, and while the picture is somewhat mixed, the most recent period of consolidation has worked off any overbought conditions that may have existed prior, and it certainly looks to me like Apple is ready to break out to the upside.</p>\n<p>I’ve drawn an upward-sloping trendline that has provided excellent support for the stock since the relative bottom that occurred in September. This line has been tested a handful of times and has held without fail; the stock just bounced off of it again a few days ago. Until that line fails, you can trade it.</p>\n<p>Accumulation/distribution is one of my favorite indicators, but alas, it is roughly flat in this case, so it’s neutral.</p>\n<p>What is more bullish are the momentum indicators, the PPO, and the 14-day RSI. The PPO has returned to centerline support and – very importantly – has begun bouncing. If a new rally in Apple is to begin, this space on the PPO line is most likely the point where it would originate.</p>\n<p>Likewise, the stock has reached ~30 on the 14-day RSI three times since February, and while this most recent bout of selling didn’t quite get there, you can see the stock is bouncing from roughly the same spot again.</p>\n<p>All in all, the chart looks like a stock that is ready to bounce and do so as part of a larger upward-sloping move that is consolidating prior gains. To get a better look at that piece of the puzzle, let’s turn our attention to the weekly chart.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c6aec1317cbceb65a6908358c22ddf0a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"615\"><span>Source: StockCharts</span></p>\n<p>The weekly chart has some of the same characteristics as the daily chart – including a flattish accumulation/distribution line – but some important differences as well.</p>\n<p>I’ve annotated what I believe is a bullish ascending triangle on the weekly chart, a continuation pattern which generally resolves itself to the upside. The only thing that would break this pattern prematurely is a sustained break of the lower line. Unless that happens, watch for the stock to follow the pattern until it achieves a sustained breakout over the flat line above.</p>\n<p>The weekly PPO was showing extreme overbought conditions last September when the first stab at $137 was made by the bulls and has pulled well back very near centerline support. The last time this happened was during the worst of the pandemic-induced selling last year, and I fully expect the stock to turn higher from here, or very close to it.</p>\n<p>Finally, the 14-week RSI is showing a return to centerline support as well, an area that has held for a long time, excluding the initial stages of pandemic selling in March of last year.</p>\n<p>The point of all of this is to show that Apple – despite its months-long consolidation – is setting up for a renewed rally, and not setting up for a breakdown. From a technical perspective, I am very bullish on Apple, even if it requires some patience for the factors I’ve discussed to play out. Over time, however, this stock is going higher.</p>\n<p><b>Upward revisions drive the share price</b></p>\n<p>One thing I always look for when picking a stock is that earnings and revenue revisions should be upward-sloping. For growth stocks, this is paramount as the moment these revisions turn negative, the share price often follows. Apple is no longer a pure growth stock given its $2+ trillion valuation, but I think there is growth left in the tank, and that the current share price is undervaluing it.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97080913a4dcaf1197d3ffa6fdc441b8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"289\"><span>Source:Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p>Revenue revisions have been extremely bullish in recent months, with revenue for this year, for instance, rising from $296 billion to $354 billion in the space of a year. The story is the same for the out-years in varying degrees, but the point is that Apple’s revenue continues to move up and to the right, which is unequivocally bullish.

However, the point is that the upward revisions we saw in revenue above are being driven by devices that get customers to then use the company’s services, which produces an ever-higher value per customer. And while margins are decent on products – 36% in the most recent quarter – they are tremendous on services, which clocked gross margin of 70% in the same period. This is where profit growth is likely to come from in earnest in the decades to come as Apple continues to enhance its services offerings to the benefit of the bottom line.</p>\n<p>Now, let’s take a look at earnings estimates to figure out what we should pay for the stock, and what it may be worth.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/43809254a757d8529f7a8b62ce380996\" tg-width=\"522\" tg-height=\"226\"><span>Source:Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p>EPS is moving significantly higher this year on pent-up demand from the pandemic. The reason the stock has been consolidating for months is because market participants knew some time ago that this year would be gangbusters for Apple, and bid the stock up accordingly.

My base case is for margin expansion to add about 1% to the EPS growth rate, with a more bullish scenario seeing it add 2%. For now, I’ll assume 1% and add that to the 4% we had from revenue.</p>\n<p>The final piece of the EPS puzzle is the share count, which we can see below for the past few years.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fa1fa7d8926b3343e1f7b056603a5cb5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\"><span>Source:TIKR.com</span></p>\n<p>Apple has been spending heavily on share repurchases for years under the guidance of Tim Cook, and it shows.

That gives Apple freedom to do pretty much whatever it wants, and remember that this total is much more likely to grow over time than shrink. The dividend is ~$15 billion annually today, so that still leaves $80+ billion in cash Apple can do as it sees fit with. That creates a long-term tailwind to EPS as the company literally has more cash than it can profitably invest in the business (#firstworldproblems).</p>\n<p>And despite this otherworldly spending on buybacks, Apple’s balance sheet is still outstanding.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/74cde7d87b3563aa70bccd4bb5c9318e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\"><span>Source:TIKR.com</span></p>\n<p>Net debt has risen in recent years as the company has returned hundreds of billions of dollars to shareholders and taken on some debt, but on a net basis, debt is still -$70 billion.

If I’m right, the revisions will continue to rise and with it, the share price.</p>\n<p><b>Let’s value this thing</b></p>\n<p>All of this counts for nothing if Apple is priced for the moon, so let’s take a look at how the valuation is faring these days.

However, Apple’s first shot at a new all-time high last September was accompanied by a high in the valuation at 37X forward earnings. Today, shares go for a much more reasonable 25X forward earnings, which just so happens to be where the stock was trading just prior to the pandemic hitting. In other words, for all the upward revisions we’ve seen, and Apple slated to post a 50%+ gain in EPS this year, the stock is priced exactly the same way it was before the world knew what COVID-19 was. To me, that screams value and with a base case of 8% EPS growth, a dominant market position (to say the least), virtually unlimited cash coming in at any time, and a history of profitable innovation, I think the risk/reward is firmly in favor of the bulls.</p>\n<p>Apple won’t make you rich overnight, but for growth at a reasonable price, it is very difficult to beat.</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>Buy Apple Before The Upcoming Breakout</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\">\nBuy Apple Before The Upcoming Breakout\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-19 14:54 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4429656-buy-apple-before-the-upcoming-breakout><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Summary\n\nApple is consolidating in a bullish pattern.\nThe weight of the evidence suggests an upside break, as well as rising EPS estimates.\nWith the valuation at pre-pandemic levels, Apple is priced ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4429656-buy-apple-before-the-upcoming-breakout\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4429656-buy-apple-before-the-upcoming-breakout","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1156718320","content_text":"Summary\n\nApple is consolidating in a bullish pattern.\nThe weight of the evidence suggests an upside break, as well as rising EPS estimates.\nWith the valuation at pre-pandemic levels, Apple is priced in the favor of the bulls.\n\nPhoto by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images News via Getty Images\nTechnology stocks, and particularly growth-oriented technology stocks, have been pummeled since February. Interest rates have been blamed and while that’s certainly part of it, there were signs of excessive valuations all over the place after a year of almost unbelievable gains. While this period of selling has been painful, it has also created opportunities.\nOne such opportunity is in OG smartphone legend Apple (AAPL), a stock that has traded sideways since last September. Apple’s world-beating market capitalization means on a percentage basis, its growth must slow down. But I think the stock is underpricing the company’s potential, and that an upside breakout is coming.\nSource: StockCharts\nWe’ll start with the daily chart, and while the picture is somewhat mixed, the most recent period of consolidation has worked off any overbought conditions that may have existed prior, and it certainly looks to me like Apple is ready to break out to the upside.\nI’ve drawn an upward-sloping trendline that has provided excellent support for the stock since the relative bottom that occurred in September. This line has been tested a handful of times and has held without fail; the stock just bounced off of it again a few days ago. Until that line fails, you can trade it.\nAccumulation/distribution is one of my favorite indicators, but alas, it is roughly flat in this case, so it’s neutral.\nWhat is more bullish are the momentum indicators, the PPO, and the 14-day RSI. The PPO has returned to centerline support and – very importantly – has begun bouncing. If a new rally in Apple is to begin, this space on the PPO line is most likely the point where it would originate.\nLikewise, the stock has reached ~30 on the 14-day RSI three times since February, and while this most recent bout of selling didn’t quite get there, you can see the stock is bouncing from roughly the same spot again.\nAll in all, the chart looks like a stock that is ready to bounce and do so as part of a larger upward-sloping move that is consolidating prior gains. To get a better look at that piece of the puzzle, let’s turn our attention to the weekly chart.\nSource: StockCharts\nThe weekly chart has some of the same characteristics as the daily chart – including a flattish accumulation/distribution line – but some important differences as well.\nI’ve annotated what I believe is a bullish ascending triangle on the weekly chart, a continuation pattern which generally resolves itself to the upside. The only thing that would break this pattern prematurely is a sustained break of the lower line. Unless that happens, watch for the stock to follow the pattern until it achieves a sustained breakout over the flat line above.\nThe weekly PPO was showing extreme overbought conditions last September when the first stab at $137 was made by the bulls and has pulled well back very near centerline support. The last time this happened was during the worst of the pandemic-induced selling last year, and I fully expect the stock to turn higher from here, or very close to it.\nFinally, the 14-week RSI is showing a return to centerline support as well, an area that has held for a long time, excluding the initial stages of pandemic selling in March of last year.\nThe point of all of this is to show that Apple – despite its months-long consolidation – is setting up for a renewed rally, and not setting up for a breakdown. From a technical perspective, I am very bullish on Apple, even if it requires some patience for the factors I’ve discussed to play out. Over time, however, this stock is going higher.\nUpward revisions drive the share price\nOne thing I always look for when picking a stock is that earnings and revenue revisions should be upward-sloping. For growth stocks, this is paramount as the moment these revisions turn negative, the share price often follows. Apple is no longer a pure growth stock given its $2+ trillion valuation, but I think there is growth left in the tank, and that the current share price is undervaluing it.\nSource:Seeking Alpha\nRevenue revisions have been extremely bullish in recent months, with revenue for this year, for instance, rising from $296 billion to $354 billion in the space of a year. The story is the same for the out-years in varying degrees, but the point is that Apple’s revenue continues to move up and to the right, which is unequivocally bullish. It means the company continues to outperform and that the investment community is chasing targets higher. Keep in mind also that for about half of that period, the stock has been treading water, all the while becoming cheaper as estimates rise on a flat share price; more on that in a bit.\nProduct sales continue to drive the top line higher, and that will almost certainly continue to be the case as the iPhone remains a favorite among the world’s consumers and businesses. But apart from that, the company’s services revenue continues to move significantly higher, and produce outstanding margins too.\nSource:Q1 earnings release\nWe all know about Apple’s products and where its services revenue comes from, so I won’t needlessly explain.

To me, that screams value and with a base case of 8% EPS growth, a dominant market position (to say the least), virtually unlimited cash coming in at any time, and a history of profitable innovation, I think the risk/reward is firmly in favor of the bulls.\nApple won’t make you rich overnight, but for growth at a reasonable price, it is very difficult to beat.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":363,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":194352929,"gmtCreate":1621345072561,"gmtModify":1704356127744,"author":{"id":"3581666175913688","authorId":"3581666175913688","name":"happyfarmer","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581666175913688","authorIdStr":"3581666175913688"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Go higher please","listText":"Go higher please","text":"Go higher please","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/194352929","repostId":"1197358072","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1197358072","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":1621330963,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1197358072?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-18 17:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Baidu's 1Q Results Beat Estimates","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1197358072","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Baidu, Inc. today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 20","content":"<p>Baidu, Inc.&nbsp;today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.</p><p>“We are delighted to bring innovation across many sectors, including marketing cloud, enterprise cloud, smart transportation, autonomous driving, smart assistant and AI chip, through our decadelong investment in AI,” said Robin Li, co-founder and CEO of Baidu. “With AI powering the next stage of technology growth, many Baidu alumni have rejoined us, and our employees are energized from working on intelligent computing that can improve daily life and make the complex world simpler.”</p><p>“Baidu Core delivered a strong first quarter with revenue growing 34% year over year, powered by non-advertising revenue growing 70% year over year,” said Herman Yu, CFO of Baidu. “We will continue to invest heavily in sales, R&amp;D and operations to support the rapid growth of our AIpowered business.”</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/afb3caa729e48033c7dab8a4f9a02037\" tg-width=\"1187\" tg-height=\"697\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/15444e314a05131c16849f758e6776ea\" tg-width=\"1186\" tg-height=\"417\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Baidu&nbsp;stock&nbsp;surged&nbsp;3.6%&nbsp;in aftermarket trading.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/527d3dc60d4d86fc726bc558f46055cb\" tg-width=\"1302\" tg-height=\"663\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p><b>Other Highlights</b></p><p><b><i>Corporate</i></b></p><ul><li>Baidu ranks Top 3 in cloud services and No.1 in the utilization of renewable energy for data centers, according to Greenpeace, a global environmental organization, based on itsApril 2021report<i>Clean Cloud: Tracking Renewable Energy Use inChina'sTech Industry</i>.</li><li>Baidu released its annual ESG Report inFebruary 2021, which details Baidu's ESG policies and sustainability initiatives (http://esg.baidu.com/en/esg_download.html).</li><li>OnMarch 23, 2021, Baidu listed on the HKEX (9888) through a global offering of 95,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, receiving$3.1 billionin net proceeds.</li><li>Baidu returnedUS$300 millionto shareholders under the 2020 Share Repurchase Program this year, bringing the cumulative repurchase to$2.2 billionsince 2020.</li></ul><p><b><i>AI Cloud</i></b></p><ul><li>Baidu EasyDL, a simple to use machine learning service, was rated No.1 in terms of usage inChina, per IDC inDecember 2020, topping the list for the second time.</li><li>Baidu deep learning framework PaddlePaddle, upgraded to v2.0 inMarch 2021, was ranked among the Top 3 globally in terms of usage based on pull request, according to Github.</li><li>A leading retail bank inChinaimplemented Baidu's AI PaaS, which has led to five follow-on purchases, including application to automate customer service and consumer loan approval, and the recent purchase of private cloud services.</li><li>Baidu partnered with the online arm ofChina'slargest TV network CCTV to implement Baidu AI PaaS with capabilities to automate video clip creation and tagging from live broadcasting and use smart assistant to quickly locate desired video content.

The latest sell-off is tied to the sharp drop inbitcoin– Tesla CEO Elon Musk last week said the company would reverse a decision to allow purchases made with the cryptocurrency, but since clarified it will still hold its investment in the coin.\nTesla could see more pain, warned one chart watcher.\n“It broke below trend, and we have to remember, when we analyze stocks such as Tesla, they are prone to overreact — overreact on the upside, as well as overreact on the downside,” said JC O’Hara, chief market technician at MKM Partners.\n\n“When Tesla was in an uptrend, above its 200-day moving average, those overreactions were indeed positive and we just look back to January to see how stretched it can get. Now trends have shifted, breaking below the 200-day moving average, breaking below a long-term uptrend. So I believe the overreaction will be to the downside,” O’Hara told CNBC’s “Trading Nation” on Wednesday.\nShares have fallen 20% this year, the worst performance in the S&P 100. It has also broken below its 50-day and 200-day moving average.\n“We’re right around $550 right now, good place for a short little bounce, but I would want to see the overreaction down to $450. I think that’s the proper level to get back involved with Tesla,” he said.\nA move to $450 implies another 20% downside. It last traded at that level last November. It closed Wednesday just above $563.\nDelano Saporu, founder of New Street Advisors, says the tide has turned against all growth stocks — and Tesla is particularly susceptible as a well-known name in the group.\n“The backdrop is really against Tesla right now, for a lot of growth names, so we’re seeing the sellers come out in force. And I think the one thing that would kind of bring buyers out, especially myself, would be looking at the valuation,” Saporu said during the same interview.\nTesla trades at 109 times forward earnings, well above the 21 times forward multiple for the S&P 500.\n“We had strong earnings from Tesla and that still didn’t move the stock higher. Everything else in the backdrop is just against some of these growth names right now,” said Saporu.\nTesla reported record net income and 74% revenue growth in its March-ended quarter.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":218,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":191417263,"gmtCreate":1620898305052,"gmtModify":1704350096121,"author":{"id":"3581666175913688","authorId":"3581666175913688","name":"happyfarmer","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581666175913688","idStr":"3581666175913688"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"have not sold my&nbsp;free Disney share","listText":"have not sold my&nbsp;free Disney share","text":"have not sold my free Disney share","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/191417263","repostId":"1168015515","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":159,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":107940718,"gmtCreate":1620440986534,"gmtModify":1704343756135,"author":{"id":"3581666175913688","authorId":"3581666175913688","name":"happyfarmer","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581666175913688","idStr":"3581666175913688"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Price have been falling.","listText":"Price have been falling.","text":"Price have been falling.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/107940718","repostId":"1109242767","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1109242767","pubTimestamp":1620439405,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1109242767?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-08 10:03","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Tencent Unit Told to Pay Gree $92.2 Million in ‘Freemium’ Case","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1109242767","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Japan’s Gree wins patent trial against Supercell in TexasCase is second trial won by Gree over popul","content":"<ul><li>Japan’s Gree wins patent trial against Supercell in Texas</li><li>Case is second trial won by Gree over popular online games</li></ul><p>Tencent Holdings Ltd.’s Supercell gaming unit was told to pay $92.2 million in damages to Japan’sGree Inc.in a patent trial over features used in popular online games.</p><p>Supercellgames infringed six patents, a federal jury in Marshall, Texas, found Friday.

Many companies faced adversity throughout the pandemic, and some are still recovering, but not BABA. Through the worst economic environment for businesses to navigate in recent times, BABA generated over $100 billion in revenue and $20 billion in net income during their recent fiscal year. While BABA didn't get the memo about businesses facing challenges amidst the pandemic, the market must not have read BABA's earnings report or crunched the numbers.</p>\n<p>There are two Chinese companies I am bullish on, and BABA is my biggest conviction for appreciation. BABA smashed through the $300 share price level at the end of October 2020, but shareholders have been left confused and disappointed since then. It looked like BABA would turn the corner after a horrible end to 2020 as shares appreciated from $222.36 from the close of 2020 to $270.83 in the middle of February 2021. Still, the markets had other plans, and all shares of BABA have done is disappoint shareholders. If you missed the BABA train, it's time to grab your tickets and climb aboard, and if you purchased BABA during its run to $300 or early 2021 rebound, it might be time to add to your holdings. BABA is going to experience tremendous tailwinds from China's population and economic growth over the next several years, and their printing press is going to need more ink.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/86da7b532f25f563d08490ddc43cbede\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"337\"><span>(Source: Alibaba)</span></p>\n<p><b>The Alibaba printing press is open for business, and it spits out billions</b></p>\n<p>How many companies can say their annual revenue through the pandemic exceeded $100 billion? The $100 billion revenue mark is a prestigious club that companies such as&nbsp;Facebook (FB),PepsiCo (PEP),Procter &amp; Gamble (PG),Target (TGT), and&nbsp;Johnson &amp; Johnson (JNJ)&nbsp;are not part of. BABA, on the other hand, witnessed its revenue increase by 52.11% and smash through $100 billion as they generated $109.47 billion in their recent fiscal year. For the year ending March 2019, BABA's revenue increased by $16.25 billion (40.74%) to $56.15 billion, then for the March 2020 fiscal year, revenue increased another $15.82 billion (28.17%) to $71.97 billion. BABA is in the same boat as Alphabet(NASDAQ:GOOG)(GOOGL), FB, and Amazon (AMZN) as they watched the pandemic push more people to go digital which accelerated their businesses. For BABA, the forced transition to digital helped them achieve $37.5 billion (52.11%) in additional revenue as they finished their March 2021 fiscal year with $109.47 billion in revenue.</p>\n<p>Since 2013 BABA has not had a year where their annual revenue increase didn't exceed 25% Year over Year (YoY). When you think about that as a growth rate, it's remarkable for a company of BABA's size as this isn't a company chasing its first billion-dollar revenue year. Over the past 5 fiscal years, BABA's annual revenue has increased by $93.8 billion (408.08%) at an average annual rate of 48.25%. Smaller companies considered growth companies would be jealous of these rates, while many large caps are probably envious.</p>\n<p>BABA isn't a one-trick pony that can only generate tens of billions in revenue. BABA can convert right down to the bottom line. Each year BABA has increased its YoY gross profit by a minimum of 10% since 2013. In 2016 BABA generated $10.35 billion in gross profit and, over the next 5 fiscal years, increased its annual gross profit by $34.84 billion (336.68%). BABA has also never fallen below a 40% gross profit margin, Warren Buffett's magic number, as he indicates in<i>Warren Buffett and the Interpretation of Financial Statements. On page 34 of the Kindle edition,it says:</i></p>\n<blockquote>\n As a very general rule (and there are exceptions): Companies with gross profit margins of 40% or better tend to be companies with some sort of durable competitive advantage. Companies with gross profit margins below 40% tend to be companies in highly competitive industries, where competition is hurting overall profit margins (there are exceptions here, too).\n</blockquote>\n<p>The gross profit margin is important for investors to evaluate because it reveals how much of a company's revenue goes directly to producing it and if they have a moat around their business. BABA's numbers indicate they have a sufficient moat around their business that is hard to penetrate. With close to a decade of generating over 40% in gross profit margins, investors can expect that BABA's moat will protect its business operations for years to come.</p>\n<p>Moving to the bottom line BABA does a great job at generating profits. In their most recent fiscal year, BABA generated $22.98 billion in net income, converting more than 1/5th (20.99%) of their revenue to pure profits. Since 2013 BABA has only had 1 year where net income decreases YoY. With that track record, many options open up for BABA in the future as their cash stockpile continues to increase.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/41a5e036f023fa4ced7666e06aa1de6b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"444\"><span>(Source: Alibaba)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba will continue to experience tailwinds as China's population and economy expands</b></p>\n<p>Alibaba&nbsp;achieved one billion annual active consumers globally in the fiscal year that ended in March 2021. BABA has 891 million consumers across China's retail marketplace, local consumer services and digital media and entertainment platforms, and approximately 240 million consumers outside China. BABA's annual active consumers in the China retail marketplaces were 811 million as it grew by 85 million YoY. BABA will focus on developing a digital commerce infrastructure that offers an upgraded consumer experience by seamlessly integrating online and offline. Through BABA's infrastructure, countless retailers have digitally transformed their businesses and created multiple retail formats that have enabled new consumption experiences by leveraging consumer insights and technology. BABA's ecosystem, supply chain, and diversified fulfillment services have facilitated an immense digital transformation. By investing in its infrastructure, BABA's customers can now leverage a full range of high-frequency fulfillment services that include on-demand delivery, same-or-next day delivery, and next-day pick-up services for a full range of consumable and physical products.</p>\n<p>BABA will continue to be one of the cornerstones that supports growth within China's economy, which is benefiting from the acceleration of digitalization in all aspects of life and work. China is projected to be the world's largest economy by 2028. The per-capita income in China is expected to grow by roughly 50% from 2020 to 2025.China's average economic growth&nbsp;has been projected to increase at a rate of 5.7% from 2021 to 2025, then slow to 4.5% from 2026 to 2030. As a result,China&nbsp;is on track to join the top 1/3rd of nations and overtake 56 countries in the per capita income rankings by 2025. By the end of 2022, McKinsey&nbsp;predicts&nbsp;that the middle class could expand to 550 million people which is larger than the entire U.S population.</p>\n<p>If the projections for China are correct, this should mean a windfall of cash lining BABA's coffers. It's a simple recipe; when people make more money, they tend to spend more money to enhance their lives and increase their standard of living. As BABA is a dominant force in China's retail sector, they stand to benefit from a growing economy and a larger middle class. At the end of next year, if China has anywhere close to 550 million individuals in the middle class, I believe BABA's revenue and profits will increase significantly. This trend can provide tailwinds throughout the decade for BABA, and eventually, the market will reward shareholders based on BABA's value proposition.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bbde4a092d19118a2d16daabf5c027d7\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"463\"><span>(Source: Blomberg)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba has tremendous growth prospects in Cloud as China continues its digitization</b></p>\n<p>Cloud computing has been red hot in the U.S. as the transition from on-prem to cloud has increased the technological capabilities for many organizations. As digitization progresses across the business landscape, cloud providers continue to increase revenue generated from their cloud segments within their overall revenue mix. For example, AWS, the cloud computing division from&nbsp;AMZN, generated $45.37 billion in 2020. Cloud continues to be an exciting sector because the digital transformation is far from being over. Hence, the prospects of new customers are enormous while reoccurring revenue is generated after the transition occurs.</p>\n<p>In China, cloud infrastructure services are still in the early innings as the entire spend was around $15 billion in 2020. In Q1 of 2021, cloud infrastructure services in&nbsp;China&nbsp;grew by 55% YoY as it reached $6 billion. China was the 2nd largest market behind the U.S, accounting for 14% of global investment, up from 12% in Q1 of 2020. With cloud spending and digitization in China increasing, this serves as a major runway for growth in Alibaba Cloud.</p>\n<p>As China's economy expands, businesses will need to become more efficient to support both operations and customer demands. Chinese companies will need to implement infrastructure that can support a digital age of the workforce while supporting cloud services used by consumers for consumption. If China passes the U.S. as the world's largest economy in the second half of this decade, the amount of growth needed in cloud services will be immense. BABA is already the leader in cloud infrastructure services in China as their 39.8% market share accounted for $2.39 billion of the $6 billion spent in Q1 2021. Over the previous 6 quarters, cloud infrastructure spending has increased by roughly $2.3 billion (76.67%) in China. Based on cloud's current trajectory, quarterly revenue is on track to double over the next 2 years, putting Q1 2023 revenue at $10.6 billion. If BABA has a 35% market share, their Q1 2023 would be $3.71 billion, placing their 2023 revenue for cloud at $14.84 billion without factoring in any growth in 2023. From a cloud aspect, China's future spending is very exciting, and BABA will be one of the major benefactors.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1759b81ce463d503a165d901e2e50d7c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"728\"><span>(Source: Canalys)</span></p>\n<p><b>Alibaba has stellar financial metrics and is undervalued compared to the U.S. tech conglomerates</b></p>\n<p>For this comparison, I am going to use AMZN and GOOGL as they have been establishing their dominance in the U.S. for more than a decade. First, here are the raw numbers for AMZN, BABA, and GOOGL:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>AMZN</li>\n <li>BABA</li>\n <li>GOOGL</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The market currently places a multiple of 17.03x on AMZN's equity compared to its market cap, while its revenue multiple is 4.2x. GOOGL has a multiple of 7.17x on its equity and 8.39x on its revenue compared to market cap. AMZN and GOOGL's market caps exceed $1.5 trillion, while BABA's sits at $575.57 billion. The market is placing a 3.5x multiple on BABA's equity and 5.26x on its revenue compared to the market cap. Thus, the market is severely discounting BABA's equity and revenue generation. BABA's equity is worth 28.58% of its market cap, while AMZN's equity is equivalent to 5.87%, and GOOGL's is 13.94% of its market cap. The current discount placed on BABA's equity could create an additional tailwind for shareholders in the future.</p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>It's hard to dismiss the growth opportunities some companies in China are presenting, especially after the recent decline in share prices. However, I believe shares of BABA are currently undervalued based on their current financial metrics and growth rates. China's economy and the amount of capital allocated to cloud service infrastructure are expected to grow substantially over the years. These will create powerful tailwinds for BABA throughout this decade. As a result, I think shareholders have been allowed to establish a BABA or dollar cost average position at a discounted price. I plan on continuing to add shares to my position while the market is discounting BABA.</p>","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>Alibaba: Can BABA Get Back To $300?

Many companies faced adversity throughout the pandemic, and some are still recovering, but not BABA. Through the worst economic environment for businesses to navigate in recent times, BABA generated over $100 billion in revenue and $20 billion in net income during their recent fiscal year. While BABA didn't get the memo about businesses facing challenges amidst the pandemic, the market must not have read BABA's earnings report or crunched the numbers.\nThere are two Chinese companies I am bullish on, and BABA is my biggest conviction for appreciation. BABA smashed through the $300 share price level at the end of October 2020, but shareholders have been left confused and disappointed since then. It looked like BABA would turn the corner after a horrible end to 2020 as shares appreciated from $222.36 from the close of 2020 to $270.83 in the middle of February 2021. Still, the markets had other plans, and all shares of BABA have done is disappoint shareholders. If you missed the BABA train, it's time to grab your tickets and climb aboard, and if you purchased BABA during its run to $300 or early 2021 rebound, it might be time to add to your holdings. BABA is going to experience tremendous tailwinds from China's population and economic growth over the next several years, and their printing press is going to need more ink.\n(Source: Alibaba)\nThe Alibaba printing press is open for business, and it spits out billions\nHow many companies can say their annual revenue through the pandemic exceeded $100 billion? The $100 billion revenue mark is a prestigious club that companies such as Facebook (FB),PepsiCo (PEP),Procter & Gamble (PG),Target (TGT), and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) are not part of. BABA, on the other hand, witnessed its revenue increase by 52.11% and smash through $100 billion as they generated $109.47 billion in their recent fiscal year. For the year ending March 2019, BABA's revenue increased by $16.25 billion (40.74%) to $56.15 billion, then for the March 2020 fiscal year, revenue increased another $15.82 billion (28.17%) to $71.97 billion. BABA is in the same boat as Alphabet(NASDAQ:GOOG)(GOOGL), FB, and Amazon (AMZN) as they watched the pandemic push more people to go digital which accelerated their businesses. For BABA, the forced transition to digital helped them achieve $37.5 billion (52.11%) in additional revenue as they finished their March 2021 fiscal year with $109.47 billion in revenue.\nSince 2013 BABA has not had a year where their annual revenue increase didn't exceed 25% Year over Year (YoY). When you think about that as a growth rate, it's remarkable for a company of BABA's size as this isn't a company chasing its first billion-dollar revenue year. Over the past 5 fiscal years, BABA's annual revenue has increased by $93.8 billion (408.08%) at an average annual rate of 48.25%. Smaller companies considered growth companies would be jealous of these rates, while many large caps are probably envious.\nBABA isn't a one-trick pony that can only generate tens of billions in revenue. BABA can convert right down to the bottom line. Each year BABA has increased its YoY gross profit by a minimum of 10% since 2013. In 2016 BABA generated $10.35 billion in gross profit and, over the next 5 fiscal years, increased its annual gross profit by $34.84 billion (336.68%). BABA has also never fallen below a 40% gross profit margin, Warren Buffett's magic number, as he indicates inWarren Buffett and the Interpretation of Financial Statements. On page 34 of the Kindle edition,it says:\n\n As a very general rule (and there are exceptions): Companies with gross profit margins of 40% or better tend to be companies with some sort of durable competitive advantage. Companies with gross profit margins below 40% tend to be companies in highly competitive industries, where competition is hurting overall profit margins (there are exceptions here, too).\n\nThe gross profit margin is important for investors to evaluate because it reveals how much of a company's revenue goes directly to producing it and if they have a moat around their business. BABA's numbers indicate they have a sufficient moat around their business that is hard to penetrate. With close to a decade of generating over 40% in gross profit margins, investors can expect that BABA's moat will protect its business operations for years to come.\nMoving to the bottom line BABA does a great job at generating profits. In their most recent fiscal year, BABA generated $22.98 billion in net income, converting more than 1/5th (20.99%) of their revenue to pure profits. Since 2013 BABA has only had 1 year where net income decreases YoY. With that track record, many options open up for BABA in the future as their cash stockpile continues to increase.\n(Source: Alibaba)\nAlibaba will continue to experience tailwinds as China's population and economy expands\nAlibaba achieved one billion annual active consumers globally in the fiscal year that ended in March 2021. BABA has 891 million consumers across China's retail marketplace, local consumer services and digital media and entertainment platforms, and approximately 240 million consumers outside China. BABA's annual active consumers in the China retail marketplaces were 811 million as it grew by 85 million YoY. BABA will focus on developing a digital commerce infrastructure that offers an upgraded consumer experience by seamlessly integrating online and offline. Through BABA's infrastructure, countless retailers have digitally transformed their businesses and created multiple retail formats that have enabled new consumption experiences by leveraging consumer insights and technology. BABA's ecosystem, supply chain, and diversified fulfillment services have facilitated an immense digital transformation. By investing in its infrastructure, BABA's customers can now leverage a full range of high-frequency fulfillment services that include on-demand delivery, same-or-next day delivery, and next-day pick-up services for a full range of consumable and physical products.\nBABA will continue to be one of the cornerstones that supports growth within China's economy, which is benefiting from the acceleration of digitalization in all aspects of life and work. China is projected to be the world's largest economy by 2028. The per-capita income in China is expected to grow by roughly 50% from 2020 to 2025.China's average economic growth has been projected to increase at a rate of 5.7% from 2021 to 2025, then slow to 4.5% from 2026 to 2030. As a result,China is on track to join the top 1/3rd of nations and overtake 56 countries in the per capita income rankings by 2025. By the end of 2022, McKinsey predicts that the middle class could expand to 550 million people which is larger than the entire U.S population.\nIf the projections for China are correct, this should mean a windfall of cash lining BABA's coffers. It's a simple recipe; when people make more money, they tend to spend more money to enhance their lives and increase their standard of living. As BABA is a dominant force in China's retail sector, they stand to benefit from a growing economy and a larger middle class. At the end of next year, if China has anywhere close to 550 million individuals in the middle class, I believe BABA's revenue and profits will increase significantly. This trend can provide tailwinds throughout the decade for BABA, and eventually, the market will reward shareholders based on BABA's value proposition.\n(Source: Blomberg)\nAlibaba has tremendous growth prospects in Cloud as China continues its digitization\nCloud computing has been red hot in the U.S. as the transition from on-prem to cloud has increased the technological capabilities for many organizations. As digitization progresses across the business landscape, cloud providers continue to increase revenue generated from their cloud segments within their overall revenue mix. For example, AWS, the cloud computing division from AMZN, generated $45.37 billion in 2020. Cloud continues to be an exciting sector because the digital transformation is far from being over. Hence, the prospects of new customers are enormous while reoccurring revenue is generated after the transition occurs.\nIn China, cloud infrastructure services are still in the early innings as the entire spend was around $15 billion in 2020. In Q1 of 2021, cloud infrastructure services in China grew by 55% YoY as it reached $6 billion. China was the 2nd largest market behind the U.S, accounting for 14% of global investment, up from 12% in Q1 of 2020. With cloud spending and digitization in China increasing, this serves as a major runway for growth in Alibaba Cloud.\nAs China's economy expands, businesses will need to become more efficient to support both operations and customer demands. Chinese companies will need to implement infrastructure that can support a digital age of the workforce while supporting cloud services used by consumers for consumption. If China passes the U.S. as the world's largest economy in the second half of this decade, the amount of growth needed in cloud services will be immense. BABA is already the leader in cloud infrastructure services in China as their 39.8% market share accounted for $2.39 billion of the $6 billion spent in Q1 2021. Over the previous 6 quarters, cloud infrastructure spending has increased by roughly $2.3 billion (76.67%) in China. Based on cloud's current trajectory, quarterly revenue is on track to double over the next 2 years, putting Q1 2023 revenue at $10.6 billion. If BABA has a 35% market share, their Q1 2023 would be $3.71 billion, placing their 2023 revenue for cloud at $14.84 billion without factoring in any growth in 2023. From a cloud aspect, China's future spending is very exciting, and BABA will be one of the major benefactors.\n(Source: Canalys)\nAlibaba has stellar financial metrics and is undervalued compared to the U.S. tech conglomerates\nFor this comparison, I am going to use AMZN and GOOGL as they have been establishing their dominance in the U.S. for more than a decade. First, here are the raw numbers for AMZN, BABA, and GOOGL:\n\nAMZN\nBABA\nGOOGL\n\nThe market currently places a multiple of 17.03x on AMZN's equity compared to its market cap, while its revenue multiple is 4.2x. GOOGL has a multiple of 7.17x on its equity and 8.39x on its revenue compared to market cap. AMZN and GOOGL's market caps exceed $1.5 trillion, while BABA's sits at $575.57 billion. The market is placing a 3.5x multiple on BABA's equity and 5.26x on its revenue compared to the market cap. Thus, the market is severely discounting BABA's equity and revenue generation. BABA's equity is worth 28.58% of its market cap, while AMZN's equity is equivalent to 5.87%, and GOOGL's is 13.94% of its market cap. The current discount placed on BABA's equity could create an additional tailwind for shareholders in the future.\nConclusion\nIt's hard to dismiss the growth opportunities some companies in China are presenting, especially after the recent decline in share prices. However, I believe shares of BABA are currently undervalued based on their current financial metrics and growth rates. China's economy and the amount of capital allocated to cloud service infrastructure are expected to grow substantially over the years.
