This disposable income fuels spending that impacts stock prices of a vast majority of companies that make up a broad stock index like S&amp;P 500. Since 2009, I have been predicting the stock market direction based on the change in these factors, ie wages, home prices, gas prices, inflation and interest rates. Interest rates are the most important factor among these as it impacts the borrowing ability of people. A formula was created and published in 2014 at Seeking Alpha explaining the impact of these factors on the Stock Market ( 2014 Formula for Sharma Disposable Income Formula ).</p><p>Let us analyze these and other important factors for 2024:</p><h2 id=\"id_1941203977\">First, about the Southern Border:</h2><p>While using my formula to predict the Stock Market since 2009 on Seeking Alpha, my biggest worry has been declining population growth in the US in the last few years(chart below). Around half the states in the US have seen decline in population in the last couple of years. This could lead to a Japan like situation where consumption, housing and stock market could all go down together for decades.</p><p>While an open southern border is politically a heart burning issue for many Americans, an increase in population helps the economy in the short run.</p><p>An increase in population of around 2.5 million people every year via Texas and other states ( Homeland security website article) makes sure the consumption driven US economy continues to grow for the next few years.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b48199e21185f1bd3184050a6a2622d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"380\"/></p><p>FRED economic data</p><p></p><h3 id=\"id_3331710133\">Spending during the Election year:</h3><p>2024 being a major election year in US (and also some other major economies), it is expected that government would spend aggressively to boost the economy. Usually, the stock market and economy grows in the election years when a sitting US president is running for re-election. The US treasury has in fact borrowed more than a trillion dollars in 2023, and I can guess some of that would be spent in 2024.</p><p><strong><em>Reference:</em></strong><em> US treasury borrowing</em></p><p><strong>Wages:</strong></p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/08fc8f7737c265f8e379dfb5e88ba81c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"417\"/></p><p>Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta</p><p></p><p>After many increases in the interest rates, the Federal Reserve has been able to slow down the growth in wages and is now around 5% per year from nearly 7% per year 2 years back. Now, the Fed has announced that interest rates would be reduced in 2024, the decrease in wages may not continue, and I expect wages to continue at the current pace of around 5%.</p><p><strong><em>Reference:</em></strong> <em>Wage Growth Tracker</em></p><p><strong>CPI:</strong></p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c4b89aa4781b991ba50ab74cb4504ff1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"483\"/></p><p>BLS.gov</p><p></p><p><em>Reference: CPI info</em></p><p>While the inflation was growing at more than 9% per annum last year, it has now come down to 3% after the aggressive efforts of the FED. It may reach 2% target by the end of 2024. For my calculations, I will use it as 3% in my formula.</p><p><strong>Gas Prices:</strong></p><p>2024 being an election year, it is important for the incumbent government to ensure gas prices are affordable. While prices did go up in the middle of 2023, they have come down now to where they started from in the beginning of the year. While the OPEC has been cutting production recently, it has not been able to curtail falling prices due to production being raised by non OPEC countries. In 2024, I see the trend of gas prices to go up slightly, may be around 10 percent higher due to economic growth world over due to falling interest rates and aggressive spending by major governments before the election.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0194447d8df4a223cd113ae7e3380d9e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"301\"/></p><p>Gasbuddy.com</p><p></p><p><strong><em>Reference: Gasbuddy website article</em></strong></p><p><strong>10 year treasury yield:</strong></p><p>During 2023, the ten-year treasury yield grew more than 1% i.e. from 3.8% to 4.9%, but now it has come down to 3.9%. With the Fed reducing short term rates and the inflation falling down, there will be a downward pressure on the long term treasury yields. I expect the ten-year yield to fall down by around 50 basis points but not much more as the economy, inflation and wages are still growing at a healthy pace.</p><p>For the calculations, I will use two scenarios, one with no change and another where it falls down by 1%.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d0e3bae63fcbde9db169780f9726cab2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"256\"/></p><p>FRED</p><p></p><p>Reference: FRED 10 year yield article</p><h3 id=\"id_3076460548\">Impact of the 10-year treasury yield on S&amp;P 500 PE ratio:</h3><p>Historically when the 10-year treasury yield used to be 5%, the equivalent PE ratio for the 10-year treasury bond is 20, whereas the S&amp;P 500 PE ratio used to be 15 or a 25% discount due to additional risk. Now, as the ten-year yield is moving towards 3% which is a PE ratio of 33, the S&amp;P 500 yield at a 25% discount should be 24 at the end of 2024.</p><h3 id=\"id_3762521890\">Case Shiller for home price index:</h3><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7f889f447136908f14a98d8e39cf1f16\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"298\"/></p><p>FRED</p><p></p><p><strong><em>reference:</em></strong><em> S&amp;P/Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index</em></p><p>Home prices had started falling down in 2022 and bottomed out in first quarter of 2023 due to a threat of recession. However, as recession never happened and with 2 income families being the norm in US now, consumers are confident, and we can see increase in home prices again. Additionally, consumer is now looking for newer modern homes, which are limited in supply. I expect home prices to continue moving up may be around 5% during 2024.</p><h3 id=\"id_4166705501\">Major Risks and Factors:</h3><p>Population growth leads to consumption growth and thus is very important for the economy and the Stock Market. Immigration has been helping population growth in the US so far, but if populist ideas curtain immigration dramatically, it would lead to a negative impact on the economy and Stock market.</p><p>Secondly, if the wars in Ukraine and Middle East escalate and impact food and oil prices leading to much higher inflation, it would negatively impact economy and StockMarket.</p><p>Thirdly, a week US dollar could negatively impact the stock market as it drives up inflation in the United States.</p><p>Let us now plug these #s into the Disposable Income

Usually, the stock market and economy grows in the election years when a sitting US president is running for re-election. The US treasury has in fact borrowed more than a trillion dollars in 2023, and I can guess some of that would be spent in 2024.Reference: US treasury borrowingWages:Federal Reserve Bank of AtlantaAfter many increases in the interest rates, the Federal Reserve has been able to slow down the growth in wages and is now around 5% per year from nearly 7% per year 2 years back. Now, the Fed has announced that interest rates would be reduced in 2024, the decrease in wages may not continue, and I expect wages to continue at the current pace of around 5%.Reference: Wage Growth TrackerCPI:BLS.govReference: CPI infoWhile the inflation was growing at more than 9% per annum last year, it has now come down to 3% after the aggressive efforts of the FED. It may reach 2% target by the end of 2024. For my calculations, I will use it as 3% in my formula.Gas Prices:2024 being an election year, it is important for the incumbent government to ensure gas prices are affordable. While prices did go up in the middle of 2023, they have come down now to where they started from in the beginning of the year. While the OPEC has been cutting production recently, it has not been able to curtail falling prices due to production being raised by non OPEC countries. In 2024, I see the trend of gas prices to go up slightly, may be around 10 percent higher due to economic growth world over due to falling interest rates and aggressive spending by major governments before the election.Gasbuddy.comReference: Gasbuddy website article10 year treasury yield:During 2023, the ten-year treasury yield grew more than 1% i.e. from 3.8% to 4.9%, but now it has come down to 3.9%. With the Fed reducing short term rates and the inflation falling down, there will be a downward pressure on the long term treasury yields. I expect the ten-year yield to fall down by around 50 basis points but not much more as the economy, inflation and wages are still growing at a healthy pace.For the calculations, I will use two scenarios, one with no change and another where it falls down by 1%.FREDReference: FRED 10 year yield articleImpact of the 10-year treasury yield on S&P 500 PE ratio:Historically when the 10-year treasury yield used to be 5%, the equivalent PE ratio for the 10-year treasury bond is 20, whereas the S&P 500 PE ratio used to be 15 or a 25% discount due to additional risk. Now, as the ten-year yield is moving towards 3% which is a PE ratio of 33, the S&P 500 yield at a 25% discount should be 24 at the end of 2024.Case Shiller for home price index:FREDreference: S&P/Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price IndexHome prices had started falling down in 2022 and bottomed out in first quarter of 2023 due to a threat of recession. However, as recession never happened and with 2 income families being the norm in US now, consumers are confident, and we can see increase in home prices again. Additionally, consumer is now looking for newer modern homes, which are limited in supply. I expect home prices to continue moving up may be around 5% during 2024.Major Risks and Factors:Population growth leads to consumption growth and thus is very important for the economy and the Stock Market. Immigration has been helping population growth in the US so far, but if populist ideas curtain immigration dramatically, it would lead to a negative impact on the economy and Stock market.Secondly, if the wars in Ukraine and Middle East escalate and impact food and oil prices leading to much higher inflation, it would negatively impact economy and StockMarket.Thirdly, a week US dollar could negatively impact the stock market as it drives up inflation in the United States.Let us now plug these #s into the Disposable Income Formula:Best CaseFactor% Estimated Change in 2024ImpactWageIncrease3.4517Tenyearincrease-1CPIincrease-prev-year-3.43-10.2HomePriceincrease-0.85-4GasPriceIncrease-1st4months-0.510-510 yearincr-square-signkept-7.4-17.4HomePriceincr * Tenyear-increase-1.4-57Static Factor20.2Net Impact=>32.4Worst CaseFactor% Estimated Change in 2024ImpactWageIncrease3.4413.6Tenyearincrease0CPIincrease-prev-year-3.43-10.2HomePriceincrease-0.810-8GasPriceIncrease-1st4months-0.510-510 yearincr-square-signkept-7.400HomePriceincr * Tenyear-increase-1.400Static Factor20.2Net Impact=>10.6Average of the scenarios:21.5Click to enlargeConclusion:The best case scenario is pointing to an increase in S&P 500 by more than 30% and the worst case scenario is pointing to an increase of more than 10 %, the average between the two is 21%.

The sector is constantly evolving, thriving from a system where consumers and businesses must upgrade various devices every few years. As a result, it&#39;s an excellent place to find solid growth stocks. </p><p>The chart below shows how <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a>, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a> have all more than doubled their stock prices in the last five years. While past growth isn&#39;t always indicative of what&#39;s to come, these companies are leaders in their respective areas of technology, and have expanding businesses in lucrative markets, such as artificial intelligence (AI). </p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/23255d090d9349a26b346ae3fdc15259\" alt=\"Data by YCharts.\" title=\"Data by YCharts.\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"466\"/><span>Data by YCharts.</span></p><p>The growth potential of these companies means you don&#39;t need tens of thousands of dollars to see a considerable return on your investment. So, if you got an extra $3,000 after meeting expenses, here are three stocks that could double your money by 2030. </p><h2 id=\"id_1420722619\">1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a></h2><p>As the world&#39;s most valuable company, with a market cap of $2.8 trillion, Apple has a long history of consistent growth. Investment mogul Warren Buffett has become one of the company&#39;s biggest proponents. His holding company, <strong>Berkshire Hathaway</strong>, has entrusted 46% of its portfolio to it. Since Berkshire first invested in Apple seven years ago, its share price has soared 560%.</p><p>The company has climbed to the top of tech by achieving leading market shares in most of its product categories. It has garnered immense brand loyalty from consumers with its interconnected ecosystem of products that discourages users from buying competing devices if Apple is an option.</p><p>Exclusive apps like Messages and FaceTime have hooked customers and made lifelong users out of millions of people. The company&#39;s success has led annual revenue to rise 48% over the last five years and operating income to climb 68%.</p><p>Apple has faced macroeconomic headwinds this year, causing revenue declines in multiple product segments. But its increasing use of AI across its lineup, the upcoming venture into virtual/augmented reality, and a booming digital services business will likely take it far. Despite recent hurdles, I wouldn&#39;t bet against Apple at least doubling your money over the next seven years. In fact, it&#39;s worth dedicating about 40% of the $3,000 to the company. An investment of about $1,225 would buy seven shares at its current price.</p><h2 id=\"id_1197587643\">2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a></h2><p>As the home of potent products and platforms such as Windows, Office, Xbox, Azure, and LinkedIn, Microsoft is easily one of the most reliable investments available. Millions of consumers and businesses worldwide depend on the company for productivity and entertainment. And in 2023, it has emerged as one of the biggest names in AI. </p><p>Management invested $1 billion in ChatGPT developer OpenAI in 2019 and has since increased that figure by another $10 billion, putting its ownership stake at 49%. The partnership has allowed Microsoft to obtain exclusive licenses on several of the start-up&#39;s AI models, including the one responsible for ChatGPT. </p><p>OpenAI&#39;s technology and Microsoft&#39;s popular productivity software could prove to be a lucrative combination over the long term, and the company has already brought AI upgrades to several of its services, including its Azure cloud and the Office programs Word and Excel. It plans to launch a range of AI tools on its subscription-based 365 Office suite.</p><p>The company is well-equipped to become the go-to for anyone interested in using AI to boost efficiency, whether in business, in school, or at home. </p><p>Microsoft&#39;s shares have soared 884% in the last decade. With the power of AI, there&#39;s no telling how far that figure could rise over the next ten years, and it has an excellent chance of doubling your investment by 2030. With similar potential to Apple, I&#39;d equal an investment in Microsoft and buy four shares (about $1,280). </p><h2 id=\"id_3718653339\">3. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a></h2><p>Like Microsoft, Alphabet is home to some of the world&#39;s most recognizable products and platforms, with immense growth from Google, Android, and YouTube, to name a few. As a result, its annual revenue has risen 107% since 2019, with operating income up 130%.</p><p>The biggest reason to invest in Alphabet is its dominance in digital advertising, with billions of dollars in earnings each year through ads on YouTube and Search. Meanwhile, millions of businesses rely on Alphabet to provide income-generating ads on their websites.</p><p>The company has struggled over the last year as rising interest rates have curbed spending on ads, but easing inflation has put Alphabet on a recovery path. In the second quarter, revenue rose 7% year over year, beating analysts&#39; estimates by close to $2 billion.</p><p>In recent years, Alphabet has seen solid growth in its Google Cloud, which increased revenue by 28% in the second quarter. The company is steadily expanding its library of AI tools on the platform, launching its own version of ChatGPT earlier this year. Google Cloud might not grow to the heights of platforms like <strong>Amazon</strong> Web Services, but it has a solid role in the industry with its third-largest market share. </p><p>Alphabet&#39;s command of the digital advertising market, alongside expansions into other high-growth areas of tech, makes it a solid way to see significant gains by 2030.

The sector is constantly evolving, thriving from a system where consumers and businesses must upgrade various devices every few years. As a result, it's an excellent place to find solid growth stocks. The chart below shows how Apple, Microsoft, and Alphabet have all more than doubled their stock prices in the last five years. While past growth isn't always indicative of what's to come, these companies are leaders in their respective areas of technology, and have expanding businesses in lucrative markets, such as artificial intelligence (AI). Data by YCharts.The growth potential of these companies means you don't need tens of thousands of dollars to see a considerable return on your investment. So, if you got an extra $3,000 after meeting expenses, here are three stocks that could double your money by 2030. 1. AppleAs the world's most valuable company, with a market cap of $2.8 trillion, Apple has a long history of consistent growth. Investment mogul Warren Buffett has become one of the company's biggest proponents. His holding company, Berkshire Hathaway, has entrusted 46% of its portfolio to it. Since Berkshire first invested in Apple seven years ago, its share price has soared 560%.The company has climbed to the top of tech by achieving leading market shares in most of its product categories. It has garnered immense brand loyalty from consumers with its interconnected ecosystem of products that discourages users from buying competing devices if Apple is an option.Exclusive apps like Messages and FaceTime have hooked customers and made lifelong users out of millions of people. The company's success has led annual revenue to rise 48% over the last five years and operating income to climb 68%.Apple has faced macroeconomic headwinds this year, causing revenue declines in multiple product segments. But its increasing use of AI across its lineup, the upcoming venture into virtual/augmented reality, and a booming digital services business will likely take it far. Despite recent hurdles, I wouldn't bet against Apple at least doubling your money over the next seven years. In fact, it's worth dedicating about 40% of the $3,000 to the company. An investment of about $1,225 would buy seven shares at its current price.2. MicrosoftAs the home of potent products and platforms such as Windows, Office, Xbox, Azure, and LinkedIn, Microsoft is easily one of the most reliable investments available. Millions of consumers and businesses worldwide depend on the company for productivity and entertainment. And in 2023, it has emerged as one of the biggest names in AI. Management invested $1 billion in ChatGPT developer OpenAI in 2019 and has since increased that figure by another $10 billion, putting its ownership stake at 49%. The partnership has allowed Microsoft to obtain exclusive licenses on several of the start-up's AI models, including the one responsible for ChatGPT. OpenAI's technology and Microsoft's popular productivity software could prove to be a lucrative combination over the long term, and the company has already brought AI upgrades to several of its services, including its Azure cloud and the Office programs Word and Excel. It plans to launch a range of AI tools on its subscription-based 365 Office suite.The company is well-equipped to become the go-to for anyone interested in using AI to boost efficiency, whether in business, in school, or at home. Microsoft's shares have soared 884% in the last decade. With the power of AI, there's no telling how far that figure could rise over the next ten years, and it has an excellent chance of doubling your investment by 2030. With similar potential to Apple, I'd equal an investment in Microsoft and buy four shares (about $1,280). 3. AlphabetLike Microsoft, Alphabet is home to some of the world's most recognizable products and platforms, with immense growth from Google, Android, and YouTube, to name a few. As a result, its annual revenue has risen 107% since 2019, with operating income up 130%.The biggest reason to invest in Alphabet is its dominance in digital advertising, with billions of dollars in earnings each year through ads on YouTube and Search. Meanwhile, millions of businesses rely on Alphabet to provide income-generating ads on their websites.The company has struggled over the last year as rising interest rates have curbed spending on ads, but easing inflation has put Alphabet on a recovery path. In the second quarter, revenue rose 7% year over year, beating analysts' estimates by close to $2 billion.In recent years, Alphabet has seen solid growth in its Google Cloud, which increased revenue by 28% in the second quarter. The company is steadily expanding its library of AI tools on the platform, launching its own version of ChatGPT earlier this year. Google Cloud might not grow to the heights of platforms like Amazon Web Services, but it has a solid role in the industry with its third-largest market share. Alphabet's command of the digital advertising market, alongside expansions into other high-growth areas of tech, makes it a solid way to see significant gains by 2030. The remaining $495 of your $3,000 investment would yield 3.7 shares in Alphabet. However, an extra $30 would bump you up to four full shares.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":125,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":210772943855840,"gmtCreate":1692483041615,"gmtModify":1692483047149,"author":{"id":"3581724772671504","authorId":"3581724772671504","name":"Uasbau","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67cdf409f2239595269918513a5faac9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Not 'Tqa' but Tqs (Thanks)","listText":"Not 'Tqa' but Tqs (Thanks)","text":"Not 'Tqa' but Tqs (Thanks)","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/210772943855840","repostId":"2360533292","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":198,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":210771936010400,"gmtCreate":1692482699299,"gmtModify":1692482704314,"author":{"id":"3581724772671504","authorId":"3581724772671504","name":"Uasbau","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67cdf409f2239595269918513a5faac9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Interesting article; so if&nbsp;Aapl can&nbsp;dip to $167 shall it be a value&nbsp;buy for long term investment ?

The broader markets, as measured by the market-cap weighted S&amp;P 500 (SP500), have advanced at an annualized rate of ~12.7% during the past 10 years. However, after a look around at the type of research that is often most popular on Seeking Alpha, it becomes readily apparent that tremendous effort is seemingly spent on trying to decipher which equity real estate investment trusts (&#34;REITs&#34;) (VNQ) may have the best dividends, or which mortgage REITs (&#34;mREITs&#34;) may offer the best payouts, or even which master limited partnerships (&#34;MLPs&#34;) may offer the strongest distributions. It&#39;s sometimes disappointing, at least to me, that readers continue to want more and more content on these types of securities, given that underperformance in these areas has been considerable for the past 10 years.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d7ace3ba46fd15f17900e0d298cfc8fe\" tg-width=\"752\" tg-height=\"452\"/></p><p>Entities with large net cash positions and substantial free cash flow generation have outperformed not only the broader stock market, but also key high yield areas, including REITs, mortgage REITs and master limited partnerships during the past 10 years. (The respective ETF sponsors)</p><p>We encourage readers on Seeking Alpha to take a big step back and look at which sandbox you&#39;d like to play in. Does it make much sense to apply your research efforts in equity REITs, mortgage REITs, and master limited partnerships that often are filled with companies with considerable net debt positions and free cash flow that may barely cover their dividends, if only perhaps they are prudent enough with capital spending? Or does it make much more sense to focus one&#39;s valuable time and effort on areas of the market that are overflowing with companies with strong cash-based sources of intrinsic value, entities that have net cash on the balance sheet and strong free cash flow generation--areas such as large cap growth? To us, the answer should be an easy one. We tend to prefer to focus on ideas in the large cap-growth sandbox.</p><p>Why are readers so caught up on underperforming areas? Well, the answer seems to be clear enough: It&#39;s all about the dividend. Many readers may be retirees looking to build an income stream, which is great, but many may not have found resources to help them truly understand the concept of the dividend, itself. Do you, for example, believe the dividend is like a traditional bond coupon payment, where a traditional bond coupon payment is independent of the bond price, itself? If so, this article will help you.</p><p>Quite simply, the dividend is nothing like a traditional bond coupon payment and generally should be viewed as part of capital appreciation that otherwise would have been achieved had the dividend not been paid. The implications on this thought process should be profound to many readers on Seeking Alpha, as in this article, one will eventually recognize that the share price is reduced by the amount of the dividend on the company&#39;s ex-dividend date. Unlike a bond and its coupon, the share price is not independent of the dividend.</p><p>What this means in the most general sense is that investors pursuing an income strategy may not know that doing so directly impacts their capital appreciation potential. Investors get their total return whether they like it or not. What this means is that the total return of a stock should not be viewed in backwards fashion as the sum of the dividend yield and capital appreciation, as it may lead investors to believe that if a company adds to its dividend yield that its total return would advance further. Instead, investors should view all equities similarly whether they pay a dividend or not, assessed by total return, and then view that total return as broken into the areas of dividend yield and capital appreciation. Total return is independent of the dividend yield; it is not driven by it. In this article, we explain why, which bears repeating to hammer home this concept:</p><blockquote>Let&#39;s use [a] real-life example of a...prominent company such as Microsoft (MSFT). Back in 2004, Microsoft announced a special one-time dividend in the amount of $3 per share. It was payable to shareholders of record as of November 17, 2004, so to be eligible for the dividend, one had to buy the stock the week before, at least two trading (business) days before the record date, before the company went ex-dividend after November 12, 2004. Clearly, the chart below shows that Microsoft&#39;s shares were adjusted downward by the $3-per share dividend following the ex-dividend date, and while trading subsequent to that event impacted the stock, it is still important to understand this important market function when it comes to the dividend. If Microsoft had not paid this $3 per-share special one-time dividend, it is fair to assume that its share price would not have been adjusted down by the dividend. Perhaps this is easy to understand for many readers; for other readers, it may be helpful to evaluate the chart below to facilitate the understanding.</blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a53d0bd0c27db2c11780312eca7ef326\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"357\"/></p><p>When a company announces a dividend, its share price is reduced by the amount of the dividend on the ex-dividend date. (Trading View)</p><p>Don&#39;t get me wrong: Dividends are great. They serve a number of purposes for investors, and companies that pay a free-cash-flow backed dividend can be great long-term investments. Visa Inc. (V), Apple Inc. (AAPL) and Microsoft (MSFT) are just a few of our dividend-paying favorites. We also provide a Dividend Growth Newsletter as well as a High Yield Dividend Newsletter to our members, but a dividend is what it is: capital appreciation that otherwise would have been achieved had the dividend not been paid. Within the enterprise free cash flow construct, the dividend is cash that otherwise would have piled up on the balance sheet instead of being dispersed to shareholders. Looking at how stock prices adjust following large, one-time dividends is perhaps the best way to understand the dividend payment, while studying the enterprise valuation process, or the discounted cash-flow method, helps investors understand why this adjustment occurs.</p><p>Now, retirees may say that they require income, and this is why considerable effort is spent on assessing dividend payments. This is fair. Using dividend-paying equities to furnish one&#39;s retirement is a reasonable pursuit, but it should come with the acknowledgement that the dividend itself is actually taking away from a company&#39;s capital appreciation that otherwise would have been achieved had the company not paid the dividend. We&#39;re not splitting hairs in our explanation of total return, as understanding that total return is independent of the dividend yield could have serious implications on how one views the markets and which strategy one pursues. What is, or rather should be, most important to all investors is total return, as the dividend yield should be viewed as being &#34;paid out&#34; of total return, not a driver of it.</p><p>Said another way, it&#39;s very likely that companies with hefty dividend yields--those in the very high-single-digits or in the double-digits--may experience declining share prices over time, as the dividend yield weighs on their stock price over time.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5a604916716b4488caa7206a309018e9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"518\"/></p><p>Energy master limited partnerships and mortgage REITs have destroyed the accounts of retirees, necessitating them to chase higher and higher yields as their capital positions have eroded. (Trading View)</p><p>A look at the price performance of the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMLP\">Alerian MLP ETF</a> (AMLP) and the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/REM\">iShares Mortgage Real Estate Capped ETF</a> (REM), for example, has shown ongoing share price declines as entities in this group paid out hefty dividend/distribution yields along the way. Were you expecting that the dividend/distribution payment would act as a headwind to their share prices in this way, or were you thinking that these areas might have similar capital appreciation as other areas that perhaps don&#39;t pay a dividend? Quite simply, a hefty dividend yield is a huge headwind to a firm&#39;s share price. We think about the effort that many retirees make in trying to understanding these highly-complex, high-yielding areas, and we ask why? Why would one let the income tail wag the total return dog...to mostly achieve underperformance? One of the few answers we can come up with is a lack of understanding of the structural dynamics of the dividend payment, and this lack of understanding may be hurting many investors. For example, a myopic focus on the dividend yield could have resulted in a massive total return difference--between that of a ~15.7% annualized return in the stylistic area of large cap growth over the past 10 years versus a low-single digit one in most high-yielding equities.</p><p>Instead, we think retirees may be better off focusing on total return first, and then high yield as a secondary consideration. But what happens if an investor is only focused on the payout? A study recently released by Chicago Booth&#39;s Samuel Hartzmark and University of Southern California&#39;s David H. Solomon called the free dividends fallacy should resonate with readers. In their work, they explain that a focus on dividends could be costing investors roughly &#34;2-4 percent less per year than could otherwise be expected.&#34; Interestingly, from an empirical standpoint, the past 10 years have supported their conclusions, with the SPDR S&amp;P Dividend ETF (SDY), which includes many high-yielding Dividend Aristocrats, trailing the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) by roughly that percentage point range each year over the past 10 years.</p><p>In some ways, it seems like there may be a strong inverse correlation between the lower the dividend yield, the higher the total return, or conversely, the higher the dividend yield, the lower the total return. In any case, whether it is high-yielding equities or dividend growth equities, a myopic focus on the dividend or dividend yield seems to be costing investors, at least over the past 10 years.</p><p>We&#39;re not saying dividends aren&#39;t great (they are). Rather, we&#39;re saying that something else is more important, and that&#39;s a focus on total return and the cash-based sources of intrinsic value within the enterprise valuation construct--net cash on the balance sheet and future expectations of free cash flow. Such a view is not inconsistent with our being believers in the tenets of dividend growth investing either--reinvesting compounding dividends, growing yield on cost--but we&#39;re not letting the dividend tail wag the total return dog. A couple percentage points per year in underperformance truly adds up. The three ideas we&#39;re highlighting in this article may be three of our favorite dividend growth ideas, but in the context of this article, let&#39;s call them three of our favorite total return ideas that also have great dividend growth prospects. We think this is a better way to view dividend growth investing.</p><h2 id=\"id_685390662\"><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a></h2><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d75ee4d0adfc5f87bde9f32a99cef03b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"379\"/></p><p>The high end of our fair value estimate range stands at $283 per share.

The company benefits from a network effect, acts as a toll-road operator collecting fees every time one of its cards is swiped, and the credit card giant puts up huge operating and free cash flow margins. Visa is a top “weighting” in the portfolio of the Best Ideas Newsletter, and we don’t see that changing anytime soon. The high end of our fair value estimate range for Visa stands at ~$283 per share, with shares trading at ~$238 per share at the time of this writing. Though Visa has roughly a net-neutral balance sheet, including U.S. litigation escrow, the firm&#39;s free cash flow generation is phenomenal. Through the first nine months of fiscal 2023, its free cash flow generation of ~$13.07 billion has handily covered cash dividends paid of ~$2.8 billion. Shares yield ~0.8% at the time of this writing.</p><h2 id=\"id_3922442612\"><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">Microsoft</a></h2><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5861c732fe6030f225ae32d49d4d7a1b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"378\"/></p><p>The high end of our fair value estimate range is $368.

At the end of June, Microsoft held $111.3 billion in total cash and cash equivalents, exclusive of $9.9 billion in equity investments, and short- and long-term debt of $47.2 billion--good for a very nice net cash position. For the three months ended in June, cash flow from operations at Microsoft surged to $28.8 billion, while capital spending came in at $8.9 billion, good for free cash flow generation in the quarter of $19.8 billion. Common stock dividends paid in the quarter were just $5.05 billion, meaning that Microsoft&#39;s free cash flow coverage of its dividend is amazing, something that is further bolstered by a nice net cash position. The high end of our fair value estimate range of Microsoft is $368 per share (shares are trading at ~$316 each).

(Valuentum)</p><p>We think Apple’s &#34;Vision Pro&#34; could spell upside to its fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025 numbers, and now it’s looking likely that Apple could spark a huge jump in sales of its Apple Watch, after this year’s iteration, if it able to successfully deliver on embedding blood-pressure monitoring technology to the &#34;Watch X&#34; (it has been reported the company has had trouble embedding this technology in the past). We continue to like Apple’s cash-based sources of intrinsic value: its net cash position remains solid, and future expectations of enterprise free cash flow remain robust. At the beginning of July, Apple had a net cash position of ~$61.3 billion, while free cash flow generation of ~$80.1 billion easily covered cash dividends paid of ~$11.3 billion during the first nine months of fiscal 2023 by a large margin. As with Microsoft, Apple has tremendous dividend growth prospects. The high end of our fair value estimate range of Apple stands at $200 per share; shares of Apple yield ~0.6% at the time of this writing.</p></body></html>","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>3 Stocks For Total Return That Also Happen To Pay A Dividend</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Stocks For Total Return That Also Happen To Pay A Dividend\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-08-19 15:59 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4629693-3-stocks-for-total-return-that-also-happen-to-pay-a-dividend><strong>Seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The article emphasizes the importance of focusing on total return rather than just dividends when investing.It suggests that areas of the market with strong cash-based sources of intrinsic value, such...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4629693-3-stocks-for-total-return-that-also-happen-to-pay-a-dividend\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"MSFT":"微软","V":"Visa","AAPL":"苹果"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4629693-3-stocks-for-total-return-that-also-happen-to-pay-a-dividend","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2360533292","content_text":"The article emphasizes the importance of focusing on total return rather than just dividends when investing.It suggests that areas of the market with strong cash-based sources of intrinsic value, such as large cap growth, may be a more favorable area to consider investing.The article highlights Visa, Microsoft, and Apple as examples of companies with strong cash flow generation and dividend growth prospects.Investing is supposed to be easy. The broader markets, as measured by the market-cap weighted S&P 500 (SP500), have advanced at an annualized rate of ~12.7% during the past 10 years. However, after a look around at the type of research that is often most popular on Seeking Alpha, it becomes readily apparent that tremendous effort is seemingly spent on trying to decipher which equity real estate investment trusts (\"REITs\") (VNQ) may have the best dividends, or which mortgage REITs (\"mREITs\") may offer the best payouts, or even which master limited partnerships (\"MLPs\") may offer the strongest distributions. It's sometimes disappointing, at least to me, that readers continue to want more and more content on these types of securities, given that underperformance in these areas has been considerable for the past 10 years.Entities with large net cash positions and substantial free cash flow generation have outperformed not only the broader stock market, but also key high yield areas, including REITs, mortgage REITs and master limited partnerships during the past 10 years. (The respective ETF sponsors)We encourage readers on Seeking Alpha to take a big step back and look at which sandbox you'd like to play in. Does it make much sense to apply your research efforts in equity REITs, mortgage REITs, and master limited partnerships that often are filled with companies with considerable net debt positions and free cash flow that may barely cover their dividends, if only perhaps they are prudent enough with capital spending? Or does it make much more sense to focus one's valuable time and effort on areas of the market that are overflowing with companies with strong cash-based sources of intrinsic value, entities that have net cash on the balance sheet and strong free cash flow generation--areas such as large cap growth? To us, the answer should be an easy one. We tend to prefer to focus on ideas in the large cap-growth sandbox.Why are readers so caught up on underperforming areas? Well, the answer seems to be clear enough: It's all about the dividend. Many readers may be retirees looking to build an income stream, which is great, but many may not have found resources to help them truly understand the concept of the dividend, itself. Do you, for example, believe the dividend is like a traditional bond coupon payment, where a traditional bond coupon payment is independent of the bond price, itself? If so, this article will help you.Quite simply, the dividend is nothing like a traditional bond coupon payment and generally should be viewed as part of capital appreciation that otherwise would have been achieved had the dividend not been paid. The implications on this thought process should be profound to many readers on Seeking Alpha, as in this article, one will eventually recognize that the share price is reduced by the amount of the dividend on the company's ex-dividend date. Unlike a bond and its coupon, the share price is not independent of the dividend.What this means in the most general sense is that investors pursuing an income strategy may not know that doing so directly impacts their capital appreciation potential. Investors get their total return whether they like it or not. What this means is that the total return of a stock should not be viewed in backwards fashion as the sum of the dividend yield and capital appreciation, as it may lead investors to believe that if a company adds to its dividend yield that its total return would advance further. Instead, investors should view all equities similarly whether they pay a dividend or not, assessed by total return, and then view that total return as broken into the areas of dividend yield and capital appreciation. Total return is independent of the dividend yield; it is not driven by it. In this article, we explain why, which bears repeating to hammer home this concept:Let's use [a] real-life example of a...prominent company such as Microsoft (MSFT). Back in 2004, Microsoft announced a special one-time dividend in the amount of $3 per share. It was payable to shareholders of record as of November 17, 2004, so to be eligible for the dividend, one had to buy the stock the week before, at least two trading (business) days before the record date, before the company went ex-dividend after November 12, 2004. Clearly, the chart below shows that Microsoft's shares were adjusted downward by the $3-per share dividend following the ex-dividend date, and while trading subsequent to that event impacted the stock, it is still important to understand this important market function when it comes to the dividend. If Microsoft had not paid this $3 per-share special one-time dividend, it is fair to assume that its share price would not have been adjusted down by the dividend. Perhaps this is easy to understand for many readers; for other readers, it may be helpful to evaluate the chart below to facilitate the understanding.When a company announces a dividend, its share price is reduced by the amount of the dividend on the ex-dividend date. (Trading View)Don't get me wrong: Dividends are great. They serve a number of purposes for investors, and companies that pay a free-cash-flow backed dividend can be great long-term investments. Visa Inc. (V), Apple Inc. (AAPL) and Microsoft (MSFT) are just a few of our dividend-paying favorites. We also provide a Dividend Growth Newsletter as well as a High Yield Dividend Newsletter to our members, but a dividend is what it is: capital appreciation that otherwise would have been achieved had the dividend not been paid. Within the enterprise free cash flow construct, the dividend is cash that otherwise would have piled up on the balance sheet instead of being dispersed to shareholders. Looking at how stock prices adjust following large, one-time dividends is perhaps the best way to understand the dividend payment, while studying the enterprise valuation process, or the discounted cash-flow method, helps investors understand why this adjustment occurs.Now, retirees may say that they require income, and this is why considerable effort is spent on assessing dividend payments. This is fair. Using dividend-paying equities to furnish one's retirement is a reasonable pursuit, but it should come with the acknowledgement that the dividend itself is actually taking away from a company's capital appreciation that otherwise would have been achieved had the company not paid the dividend. We're not splitting hairs in our explanation of total return, as understanding that total return is independent of the dividend yield could have serious implications on how one views the markets and which strategy one pursues. What is, or rather should be, most important to all investors is total return, as the dividend yield should be viewed as being \"paid out\" of total return, not a driver of it.Said another way, it's very likely that companies with hefty dividend yields--those in the very high-single-digits or in the double-digits--may experience declining share prices over time, as the dividend yield weighs on their stock price over time.Energy master limited partnerships and mortgage REITs have destroyed the accounts of retirees, necessitating them to chase higher and higher yields as their capital positions have eroded. (Trading View)A look at the price performance of the Alerian MLP ETF (AMLP) and the iShares Mortgage Real Estate Capped ETF (REM), for example, has shown ongoing share price declines as entities in this group paid out hefty dividend/distribution yields along the way. Were you expecting that the dividend/distribution payment would act as a headwind to their share prices in this way, or were you thinking that these areas might have similar capital appreciation as other areas that perhaps don't pay a dividend? Quite simply, a hefty dividend yield is a huge headwind to a firm's share price. We think about the effort that many retirees make in trying to understanding these highly-complex, high-yielding areas, and we ask why? Why would one let the income tail wag the total return dog...to mostly achieve underperformance? One of the few answers we can come up with is a lack of understanding of the structural dynamics of the dividend payment, and this lack of understanding may be hurting many investors. For example, a myopic focus on the dividend yield could have resulted in a massive total return difference--between that of a ~15.7% annualized return in the stylistic area of large cap growth over the past 10 years versus a low-single digit one in most high-yielding equities.Instead, we think retirees may be better off focusing on total return first, and then high yield as a secondary consideration. But what happens if an investor is only focused on the payout? A study recently released by Chicago Booth's Samuel Hartzmark and University of Southern California's David H. Solomon called the free dividends fallacy should resonate with readers. In their work, they explain that a focus on dividends could be costing investors roughly \"2-4 percent less per year than could otherwise be expected.\" Interestingly, from an empirical standpoint, the past 10 years have supported their conclusions, with the SPDR S&P Dividend ETF (SDY), which includes many high-yielding Dividend Aristocrats, trailing the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) by roughly that percentage point range each year over the past 10 years.In some ways, it seems like there may be a strong inverse correlation between the lower the dividend yield, the higher the total return, or conversely, the higher the dividend yield, the lower the total return. In any case, whether it is high-yielding equities or dividend growth equities, a myopic focus on the dividend or dividend yield seems to be costing investors, at least over the past 10 years.We're not saying dividends aren't great (they are). Rather, we're saying that something else is more important, and that's a focus on total return and the cash-based sources of intrinsic value within the enterprise valuation construct--net cash on the balance sheet and future expectations of free cash flow. Such a view is not inconsistent with our being believers in the tenets of dividend growth investing either--reinvesting compounding dividends, growing yield on cost--but we're not letting the dividend tail wag the total return dog. A couple percentage points per year in underperformance truly adds up. The three ideas we're highlighting in this article may be three of our favorite dividend growth ideas, but in the context of this article, let's call them three of our favorite total return ideas that also have great dividend growth prospects. We think this is a better way to view dividend growth investing.VisaThe high end of our fair value estimate range stands at $283 per share. (Valuentum)Visa Inc. probably has the best business model in our coverage universe. The company benefits from a network effect, acts as a toll-road operator collecting fees every time one of its cards is swiped, and the credit card giant puts up huge operating and free cash flow margins. Visa is a top “weighting” in the portfolio of the Best Ideas Newsletter, and we don’t see that changing anytime soon. The high end of our fair value estimate range for Visa stands at ~$283 per share, with shares trading at ~$238 per share at the time of this writing. Though Visa has roughly a net-neutral balance sheet, including U.S. litigation escrow, the firm's free cash flow generation is phenomenal. Through the first nine months of fiscal 2023, its free cash flow generation of ~$13.07 billion has handily covered cash dividends paid of ~$2.8 billion. Shares yield ~0.8% at the time of this writing.MicrosoftThe high end of our fair value estimate range is $368. (Valuentum)Microsoft Corporation is probably the best play on the monetization of artificial intelligence, with the firm already rolling it in 365 Copilot as a voluntary upgrade. At the end of June, Microsoft held $111.3 billion in total cash and cash equivalents, exclusive of $9.9 billion in equity investments, and short- and long-term debt of $47.2 billion--good for a very nice net cash position. For the three months ended in June, cash flow from operations at Microsoft surged to $28.8 billion, while capital spending came in at $8.9 billion, good for free cash flow generation in the quarter of $19.8 billion. Common stock dividends paid in the quarter were just $5.05 billion, meaning that Microsoft's free cash flow coverage of its dividend is amazing, something that is further bolstered by a nice net cash position. The high end of our fair value estimate range of Microsoft is $368 per share (shares are trading at ~$316 each). Microsoft's dividend yield is ~0.9%.AppleThe high end of our fair value estimate range is $200. (Valuentum)We think Apple’s \"Vision Pro\" could spell upside to its fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025 numbers, and now it’s looking likely that Apple could spark a huge jump in sales of its Apple Watch, after this year’s iteration, if it able to successfully deliver on embedding blood-pressure monitoring technology to the \"Watch X\" (it has been reported the company has had trouble embedding this technology in the past). We continue to like Apple’s cash-based sources of intrinsic value: its net cash position remains solid, and future expectations of enterprise free cash flow remain robust. At the beginning of July, Apple had a net cash position of ~$61.3 billion, while free cash flow generation of ~$80.1 billion easily covered cash dividends paid of ~$11.3 billion during the first nine months of fiscal 2023 by a large margin. As with Microsoft, Apple has tremendous dividend growth prospects. The high end of our fair value estimate range of Apple stands at $200 per share; shares of Apple yield ~0.6% at the time of this writing.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":245,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9979132335,"gmtCreate":1688269313827,"gmtModify":1688269319140,"author":{"id":"3581724772671504","authorId":"3581724772671504","name":"Uasbau","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67cdf409f2239595269918513a5faac9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Congrats!&nbsp; After the bear of 2022 spiked by interest rates hike, all FAANGMT stocks perform great this year.

The way to outperform isn't by blending into the herd, but by standing apart from it.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":46,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9946610321,"gmtCreate":1680936533563,"gmtModify":1680936536953,"author":{"id":"3581724772671504","authorId":"3581724772671504","name":"Uasbau","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67cdf409f2239595269918513a5faac9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9946610321","repostId":"1173697836","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1173697836","pubTimestamp":1680933151,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1173697836?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-04-08 13:52","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Google Is A Strong Buy Ahead Of Q1 Earnings","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1173697836","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryGoogle is going to report results for its first-quarter later this month.Google is likely to ","content":"<html><head></head><body><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Summary</h2><ul><li><p>Google is going to report results for its first-quarter later this month.</p></li><li><p>Google is likely to see only single-digit top line growth due to persistent ad market weakness, but the technology firm should report solid free cash flows.</p></li><li><p>Google is likely going to upsize its stock buyback and the stock is one of the cheapest FAANG stocks.</p></li></ul><p>Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) is about to submit its first-quarter earnings sheet later this month (estimated earnings date: 4/27/2023), and in this article I am going to take a look at what investors can reasonably expect from the technology company regarding operating performance. Google has been performing moderately well in the fourth-quarter, given the difficult circumstances in the digital advertising market, but operating conditions in the first-quarter likely remained weak. However, Google’s core advertising business still generates a ton of free cash flow and the Cloud business is likely going to see strong, but decelerating growth in the first-quarter as well.

A weak ad market and overall slowing top line growth has forced Google to cut operating costs: the company announced earlier this year that it was laying off about 6% of its workforce in January which at the time translated to about 12 thousand job cuts. Other tech companies also laid off thousands of people, a sign that the U.S. economy is cooling and that companies are looking for cost cuts.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">The slowdown in the ad market has been well covered and most investors will be aware of Google&#39;s slowing growth. EPS estimates for the upcoming quarter reflect these expectations: the average prediction calls for $1.07 per-share in earnings in Q1&#39;23, implying a 13% EPS decline year over year. However, Google is still expected to squeeze out a 1.2% top line gain in the first-quarter and report revenues of approximately $68.83B.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8f5c545f71f64b1d255656c2c3adc3d1\" alt=\"Source: Seeking Alpha\" title=\"Source: Seeking Alpha\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"259\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha</span></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Source: Seeking Alpha</strong></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Google&#39;s earnings revision trend heading into Q1’23 is also rather negative. Analysts have down-graded Google’s EPS expectations 16 times in the last 90 days and there were only 3 EPS upward revisions, suggesting that analysts as a whole continue to expect persistent earnings headwinds resulting from a slowing advertising market.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Google&#39;s advertising business remains challenged due to large corporations cutting back on ad spending in an increasingly uncertain market. As a result, Google’s advertising performance suffered in the fourth-quarter and will likely disappoint in Q1&#39;23 also: the technology company reported a revenue decline of 3.6% in its core ad business in Q4&#39;22. For the first-quarter, I expect 1.5-2.5% core advertising segment growth as the ad market remained weak and a string of bank failures possibly hurt spending attitudes during the quarter.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53217ed92c61097390a2ae6476456886\" alt=\"Source: Google\" title=\"Source: Google\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"224\"/><span>Source: Google</span></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Source: Google</strong></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"></p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Whether or not Google will report positive top line growth in Q1&#39;23 largely depends on execution in Google&#39;s Cloud business. Cloud business growth chiefly depends on large corporate clients investing in digital infrastructure to drive efficiency. Google Cloud is the fastest-growing business for Alphabet and the business generated $7.3B in revenues in Q4&#39;22, showing 32% year over year growth. For the first-quarter, I expect 28-30% top line growth and it should be Cloud that once again pushes Google&#39;s consolidated revenue growth into the green.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Free cash flow and stock buybacks</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Google is on track to complete its stock buyback authorization of $70B, which was announced a year ago, in the very near term. Google repurchased $15.4B of its shares in the fourth-quarter and considering that the company generates approximately $16B in free cash flow quarterly, I believe Google is set to announce a major buyback, perhaps around the $100B mark, later this month.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Assuming that the ad market remained in similar constitution as in the fourth-quarter, I would not expect a material change in Google’s free cash flow prowess: my prediction for Google&#39;s Q1’23 FCF is about $13.8B-$14.2B as first-quarter free cash flow typically falls off after the holiday season. In last year&#39;s first-quarter, Google generated $15.3B in free cash flow and persistent weakness in the ad market makes it unlikely that Google will be able to generate the same level of FCF this year. However, even $13-14B in free cash flow is a handsome sum to spend on buybacks, especially now that the stock is so cheap.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Google’s valuation relative to FAANG rivals</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Google continues to have an attractive valuation considering that the company runs a quasi-monopoly search business, Cloud continues to grow at double-digits and Google generates a ton of free cash flow from advertising sales. Google is also quite competitively valued, based off of free cash flow and earnings, when compared against other FAANG stocks... which is why I believe Google should throw as much money as it can afford to buy back shares at a discounted valuation.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Google currently has the lowest P/FCF ratio (23.9 X) in the comparison group and the second-lowest forward P/E ratio (17.9 X), after Meta Platforms. I like Meta Platforms, chiefly because of its $40B stock buyback.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/01a37e13277d7c19f19cacc977c9e896\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"549\"/></p><p>Data by YCharts</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">Compared to its own historical valuation range, Google can still be bought below its 1-year average P/E ratio. Considering that the company is likely to make a new buyback announcement at the end of the month, I believe the stock represents deep value for investors before the Q1&#39;23 earnings date. A major stock buyback announcement could result in a re-rating of Google&#39;s stock which is why I am upgrading Google&#39;s rating from buy to strong buy as well.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/98b330ad157fcf94f7834b646dfd3c46\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\"/></p><p>Data by YCharts</p><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Risks with Google</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">The biggest risk for Google is an accelerating slowdown in the digital advertising market which could lead to a deterioration of Google’s core operating performance... and therefore falling free cash flow. The technology company squeezed out a 1% top line gain in the last quarter due to a strong performance of Cloud. Additionally, high inflation has weighed on advertising budgets, but these dollars could quickly return if overall economic conditions improve.</p><h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Final thoughts</h2><p style=\"text-align: left;\">I don’t expect too much from Google for the first-quarter to be honest, but I nonetheless believe that the technology company is going to put up a solid earnings sheet that will show positive top line growth as well as solid free cash flows. Earnings estimates are very low and a strong Cloud performance could make a difference for Google&#39;s Q1&#39;23 results.</p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">A key catalyst for Google could be the announcement of a major stock buyback which I believe will significantly exceed the $70B buyback announced a year ago. Since the current stock buyback program is set to be completed in the near term and Google&#39;s stock is quite cheap based off of earnings and free cash flow, I believe Google presently represents the best value in the group of FAANG stocks!</p></body></html>","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>Why Google Is A Strong Buy Ahead Of Q1 Earnings</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\">\nWhy Google Is A Strong Buy Ahead Of Q1 Earnings\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-04-08 13:52 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4592882-google-strong-buy-ahead-of-q1-earnings><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryGoogle is going to report results for its first-quarter later this month.Google is likely to see only single-digit top line growth due to persistent ad market weakness, but the technology firm ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4592882-google-strong-buy-ahead-of-q1-earnings\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GOOGL":"谷歌A","GOOG":"谷歌"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4592882-google-strong-buy-ahead-of-q1-earnings","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"1173697836","content_text":"SummaryGoogle is going to report results for its first-quarter later this month.Google is likely to see only single-digit top line growth due to persistent ad market weakness, but the technology firm should report solid free cash flows.Google is likely going to upsize its stock buyback and the stock is one of the cheapest FAANG stocks.Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) is about to submit its first-quarter earnings sheet later this month (estimated earnings date: 4/27/2023), and in this article I am going to take a look at what investors can reasonably expect from the technology company regarding operating performance.

Turmoil in the banking sector has investors focused on the sector’s safe-haven characteristics, including strong balance sheets and revenue streams that are seen as durable even in the event of an economic downturn. At the same time, concerns about the fallout from banks has contributed to the yield on the 10-year Treasury dropping below 3.5%, down from a recent peak above 4%, and removing a major overhang on tech multiples.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The relative attractiveness of big tech has been underlined by the steep selloff it saw last year, which eased concerns about the group’s priciness, even as the year-to-date gain has major stocks like Apple Inc. and Microsoft Corp. above their long-term average valuations.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The Nasdaq 100 Index ended the quarter at its highest level since August, and it is up more than 20% off a December closing low, putting it above the threshold that represents a new bull market.</p><p>Here is tech’s first quarter in four charts:</p><h3 style=\"text-align: start;\">Nasdaq 100 Outperforms</h3><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc0c8e7d50e63c876ac6a29c25f68e19\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"930\" tg-height=\"523\"/></p><p> </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The Nasdaq 100 rose 20.5% this quarter, its biggest quarterly gain since mid-2020. In a measure of how the gains were concentrated within the biggest technology and internet stocks, an equal-weighted version of the index is up less than 14%. Meanwhile, the S&amp;P 500 Index, which is far more exposed to the financial sector, added 7% this quarter.</p><h3 style=\"text-align: start;\">Nvidia Climbs on AI Frenzy</h3><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/58513d851a6d0922f71fd4c81196cdd7\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"930\" tg-height=\"523\"/></p><p> </p><p><em> </em>Three of the market’s biggest components were also its three biggest gainers in the first quarter. Tesla Inc. surged 68%, while investors have embraced aggressive cost cuts at Meta Platforms Inc., sending shares of the Facebook parent up 76% in its biggest quarter since 2013.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The biggest gainer on both the Nasdaq 100 and the S&amp;P 500, however, was Nvidia Corp. The chipmaker is up 90% this year, its biggest quarterly gain since 2001. The climb reflects heightened interest in artificial intelligence, as Nvidia chips are used to power chatbots and other technology. However, the surge has underlined concerns about the stock’s valuation.</p><h3 style=\"text-align: start;\">Massive Value Creation</h3><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d3b91ebe70f712af35f6f8958cb3f5a4\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"930\" tg-height=\"523\"/></p><p> </p><p><em> </em>The year-to-date gain in the Nasdaq 100 has added more than $2.4 trillion to the index’s market capitalization. That has brought the index’s value to about $15.5 trillion, compared with a peak near $20 trillion in late 2021.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The rally has made for a number of notable superlatives on the front: Apple, which dipped below a $2 trillion market cap at the start of the year, is currently valued around $2.6 trillion. Microsoft, which dipped below $1.7 trillion early in 2023, is solidly above $2 trillion again.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Meta remains far from its 2021 peaks of nearly $1.1 trillion, but its first-quarter surge has brought its market value back near $550 billion.

Turmoil in the banking sector has investors focused on the sector’s safe-haven characteristics, including strong balance sheets and revenue streams that are seen as durable even in the event of an economic downturn. At the same time, concerns about the fallout from banks has contributed to the yield on the 10-year Treasury dropping below 3.5%, down from a recent peak above 4%, and removing a major overhang on tech multiples.The relative attractiveness of big tech has been underlined by the steep selloff it saw last year, which eased concerns about the group’s priciness, even as the year-to-date gain has major stocks like Apple Inc. and Microsoft Corp. above their long-term average valuations.The Nasdaq 100 Index ended the quarter at its highest level since August, and it is up more than 20% off a December closing low, putting it above the threshold that represents a new bull market.Here is tech’s first quarter in four charts:Nasdaq 100 Outperforms The Nasdaq 100 rose 20.5% this quarter, its biggest quarterly gain since mid-2020. In a measure of how the gains were concentrated within the biggest technology and internet stocks, an equal-weighted version of the index is up less than 14%. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 Index, which is far more exposed to the financial sector, added 7% this quarter.Nvidia Climbs on AI Frenzy  Three of the market’s biggest components were also its three biggest gainers in the first quarter. Tesla Inc. surged 68%, while investors have embraced aggressive cost cuts at Meta Platforms Inc., sending shares of the Facebook parent up 76% in its biggest quarter since 2013.The biggest gainer on both the Nasdaq 100 and the S&P 500, however, was Nvidia Corp. The chipmaker is up 90% this year, its biggest quarterly gain since 2001. The climb reflects heightened interest in artificial intelligence, as Nvidia chips are used to power chatbots and other technology. However, the surge has underlined concerns about the stock’s valuation.Massive Value Creation  The year-to-date gain in the Nasdaq 100 has added more than $2.4 trillion to the index’s market capitalization. That has brought the index’s value to about $15.5 trillion, compared with a peak near $20 trillion in late 2021.The rally has made for a number of notable superlatives on the front: Apple, which dipped below a $2 trillion market cap at the start of the year, is currently valued around $2.6 trillion. Microsoft, which dipped below $1.7 trillion early in 2023, is solidly above $2 trillion again.Meta remains far from its 2021 peaks of nearly $1.1 trillion, but its first-quarter surge has brought its market value back near $550 billion. It fell below $240 billion at its lows of last year.An Improved Technical Picture  The year-to-date gains have been fairly broad based, with only a handful of Nasdaq 100 stocks down double digits thus far in 2023. This has made for an improved technical picture, with about two-thirds of the gauge’s components above their 200-day moving averages. In late September, fewer than 8% of components were above this closely watched level.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":57,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943491053,"gmtCreate":1679609406872,"gmtModify":1679609410410,"author":{"id":"3581724772671504","authorId":"3581724772671504","name":"Uasbau","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67cdf409f2239595269918513a5faac9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943491053","repostId":"1190880638","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1190880638","pubTimestamp":1679573703,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1190880638?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-03-23 20:15","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple to Splash $1 Billion a Year on Films to Break Into Cinemas","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1190880638","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Tech giant is committing to multiple theatrical releasesCompany will use theaters to market its stre","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul><li>Tech giant is committing to multiple theatrical releases</li><li>Company will use theaters to market its streaming service</li></ul><p>Apple Inc. plans to spend $1 billion a year to produce movies that will be released in theaters, according to people familiar with the company’s plans, part of an ambitious effort to raise its profile in Hollywood and lure subscribers to its streaming service.</p><p>Apple has approached movie studios about partnering to release a few titles in theaters this year and a slate of more films in the future, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the plans are private.

The latest to enter the chat is Google’s very own Bard, which was introduced in early February – best remembered for its blunder in answering a question wrong during a live demo at its debut.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b5265211bf0343507338d960d8c51389\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"361\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Bard Demo(Google)</p><p><i>*The first image of exoplanets was taken by the “Very Large Telescope” in 2004.</i></p><p>The LaMDA-based chatbot is nowmade availableto the general public across the U.S. and UK – users can sign up on a waitlist and be permitted access on a rolling basis. And Google was sure to note that the chatbot is currently an “early experiment,” with the latest availability of open access to Bard aimed at “[getting] feedback from more people.” This is consistent with our discussion in the previous coverage on the stock, whereby Google is switching out its historical conservatism on the roll-out of speculative technologies in exchange for including the public into its AI journey in an attempt to stem market share loss to rival Microsoft.</p><p>Looking ahead, continued improvements to Bard and the chatbot’s ultimate deployment and monetization will not only be critical to stemming Google Search’s market share loss to rivals like ChatGPT-infused Bing, but also drive incremental demand for Google’s other generative AI capabilities via cloud. Specifically, while conversational AI services have recently taken the spotlight, generating more buzz than almost any other legacy AI development and turning a page for the technology’s cross-industry adoption from concept to reality, Google has long been integrating all sorts of AI-enabled solutions across its offerings:</p><p><b>1. Search</b></p><p>While Bard will be critical for addressing rival Microsoft’s ChatGPT-Bing head-on, and ensuring its leadership in online search and search ads is safeguarded, it is not the platform’s first major AI breakthrough. As discussed in our previous coverage, Google’sBERT– also a LLM – has been a key driver of Search’s accuracy and performance since its integration with the platform in 2019. BERT is trained to link text in traditional search queries with their underlying context to “improve web page rankings,” which inadvertently also drives better performance and conversion for search ads.</p><p>But before BERT, Google has already been investing and implementing other AI/ML-enabled solutions in search, which have been critical to making it the leader it is today – these include Neural Matching, a predecessor to BERT that was implemented in Search in 2018 to help improve understanding of queries, and better match them with web page results.</p><p>And the introduction of Multitask Unified Model(“MUM”) during Google’s I/O event in 2022, which enables multi-modal search via all of text, audio, and imagery in 75 languages, is expected to push the accuracy of responses further. MUM is trained to perform “many tasks at once,” making it “1,000x more powerful than BERT” – for instance, it is equipped to understand the context of queries better than BERT by having a “more comprehensive understanding and information and world knowledge than previous models,” and even prepare in advance for topics related to the original query.</p><p>Entering 2023, Bard – which is based on the LaMDA conversational AI introduced in 2021 – is now integrated into Search on an experimental basis. The pace of AI-enabled search exhibited by Google over the past half decade alone, and what they are capable of enabling in the future continues to underscore the company’s prowess in this field with little sign it is falling behind on the trend, nor the technology’s advancement.</p><p><b>2. Advertising</b></p><p>Google’s cutting-edge AI developments can also be found deeply integrated into the DNA of its advertising business. Take Performance Max (“PMax&#34;), for example, which was introduced in 2021. The ad format utilizes AI/ML to optimize ad placements for advertisers, thus improving reach and performance, as well as the economics of advertising. PMax’s value proposition is simple – advertisers can easily access Google’s ad inventory, and create ad campaigns by inputting their desired goals (e.g., budget, location, language, etc.), and Google will do the rest by distributing the ad accordingly across channels spanning “YouTube, Display, Search, Discover, Gmail, and Maps.” In addition to simplicity of usage, PMax is also smart – the format will help optimize ad placements over time and attract new customers that advertisers might not have otherwise reached, while also considering advertisers’ cost per action (“CPA”) and return on ad spend (“ROAS”) goals to drive placements accordingly.</p><p>And Bard stands to complement this model over the longer-term, especially if generative AI queries start to displace traditional search over time (discussed further in below sections). Specifically, with conversational AI services gaining traction over time, the incremental engagement garnered with inevitably attract allocation of ad dollars over from traditional search platforms. With Bard now in testing and potential future deployment, Google is pacing well on track to ensure adequate monetization and market share recapture if the shift in search trends do materialize over the longer-term.</p><p><b>3. Cloud</b></p><p>Known as the third largest public cloud provider, GCP still trails rivals Azure andAWS(AMZN) by wide margins. The unit is also not yet profitable, unlike rival platforms that have been benefiting from lucrative margins in the field for years. Yet, GCP appears to be fared better than its larger peers in recent quarters, posting consistent double-digit y/y growth in the 30%-range while the broader industry is warning of deceleration. And continued integration of AI-enabled solutions, as well as offerings catered to AI workloads, will be critical to sustaining the market share gains required for GCP’s trajectory to profitability.</p><p>In addition to BigQuery, GCP’s flagship AI/ML-enabled analytics tool for handling increasingly complex workloads which was discussed in our previous coverage on the stock, Google’s continued vertical integration of in-house developed data center processors alongside its strides made in generative AI (e.g., LaMDA, Bard, etc.) will also help to reinforce the segment’s growth and scalability. Specifically, generative AI workloads are expected to further expand the total addressable market (&#34;TAM&#34;) in cloud computing over coming years. In addition to the LLMs that require substantial computing power (discussedhere), subsequent applications built on them will also generate incremental demand for capacity over time. And the introduction of Bard and LaMDA – especially if Google models Microsoft’s strategy in monetization OpenAI’s LLMs – will be key to attracting additional enterprise cloud spending generated from incremental cloud capacity demand to suffice deployment of generative AI solutions. Not only will the distribution of access to Bard / LaMDA to developers generate an incremental revenue stream for GCP, it will likely also drive demand to adjacent cloud services offered and enable further scale towards profitability for the unit.</p><p><b>Generative AI: Threat or Opportunity?</b></p><p>With OpenAI’s ChatGPT accumulating more than 100 million users in just several months after its open access, it is only fair that Google’s investors are concerned if the company’s moat is at risk of being breached. Specifically, the rapid adoption of ChatGPT by day-to-day users and integration of OpenAI’s GPT models into existing platforms (e.g., Bing, Office 365, Dynamics 365, Salesforce Einstein GPT, Snapchat, etc.) have led to concerns over erosion – or even displacement, altogether – of Google’s market leadership in online search, which would put its core advertising business at risk. There are also worries about the impact of generative AI deployment on the company’s gross margins – OpenAI founder Sam Altman has recently commented that it costs on average “single-digit cents” per prompt on ChatGPT, while industry forecasts generative AI queries could cost as much as 2x to 10x of traditional queries.</p><p>But the latest frenzy over generative AI appears to be more of an opportunity than a threat – especially for Google, as it has already allocated much of the past decade in preparing for the arrival of this very moment. In terms of market share erosion or displacement, Google has yet to experience any substantial impacts to Search’s traffic nor ad performance as a direct result of ChatGPT’s introduction. Recent data shows that daily Google downloads in the U.S. have steadily run up towards almost 100,000 in the weeks after ChatGPT’s debut in November 2022, before consolidating around 70,000 in recent months. Google’s download stats have not budged either since Bing’s debut of its ChatGPT-infused service in February, while the rival search platform’s spiked downloads as a result of the frenzy failed to sustain through the month.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9299424c7fde5008e0eb0c4102bd5e4a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"324\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Google vs. Bing Downloads(RBC Capital Markets, with data from Sensor Tower)</p><p>Visits to Google have also remained at about 25 billion mark for daily average page views, with the exception of an expected seasonal dip during the December holiday season, despite incremental traffic observed at Bing and ChatGPT.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e4d6ccb58cba4aa2fadf9e2753360ff8\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"318\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Google vs. Bing We Page Traffic(RBC Capital Markets, with data from SimilarWeb)</p><p>Taken together, it appears the frenzy over generative AI queries have yet to displace traditional search on Google, nor eroded its leading market share. This is largely thanks to Google’s solid foundation in commanding more than 95% share of online queries (versus Bing’s ~2%), bolstered by its AI prowess supporting efficiency of the platform behind the scenes. A complete shift in user preference to a direct query and single response search format will also take time - this is akin to relativelylittle trafficon Google&#39;s &#34;I&#39;m feeling lucky&#34; option, which takes users to the first query response, as opposed to options in list format.</p><p>While it remains uncertain the extent of which generative AI queries might cannibalize demand for traditional queries in the longer-term, the recent introduction of Bard – and potentially other solutions enabled by Google’s LLMs, like LaMDA and PaLM – essentially mitigates the ensuing concerns over substantial market share erosion or displacement. And if generative AI queries proceed as an incremental development to traditional search, Bard is also readily available to help Google capture share in that arena over the long-run.</p><p>With regards to gross margins, while generative AI queries currently prove more expensive than traditional queries due to the substantial compute intensity required to process them, Google’s sprawling market reach shows potential in driving a scale advantage capable of offsetting some of the said headwinds. Meanwhile, vertical integration of GCP alongside Google’s generative AI developments will also help to reduce related costs. As discussed in our previous coverage, Google’s in-house developed “Tensor Processing Units” has been key to driving GCP’s reputation in the AI/ML community. Specifically, the latest “Cloud TPU v4” is catered to handling large-scale complex workloads like LLMs and other transformer models in generative AI, offering up to 80% faster speeds in training them at less than half the cost of its predecessor, Cloud TPU v3:</p><blockquote>Cloud TPU minimizes the time-to-accuracy when you train large, complex neural network models…that would have taken weeks to train on other hardware…Cloud TPU provides low-cost performance per dollar at scale for various ML workloads. And now CloudTPU v4gives customers 2.2x and ~1.4x more peak FLOPs per dollar vs CloudTPU v3.</blockquote><blockquote><i>Source:cloud.google.com.</i></blockquote><p>This will not only help Google scale its deployment of generative AI solutions like Bard and offset some of the burden that related compute intensity will place on its profit margins, but also potentially attract additional customers to migrate their incremental generative AI / transformer workloads to GCP as well. Google’s continued integration of other AI-enabled solutions (e.g., BERT, Pmax, etc.) across its offerings have also contributed to a consistent track record of margin expansion in recent years, which further corroborates confidence in the company to overcome the incremental cost pressures ensuing from the deployment of Bard and other future generative AI solutions.</p><p>And as mentioned in the earlier section, Google has been investing in the development of generative AI aggressively in the past decade. This is further corroborated by the swift deployment and introduction of Bard following the viral sensation of ChatGPT, underscoring that the company has the tools in place to include Google users into its AI journey. Taken together with consistent top-line growth (ex-macro challenges in the near-term), it is unlikely that Google will have to shell out material incremental capex spend as a percentage of revenue in the foreseeable future, thus preserving cash flow expansion required to sustain valuation upsides.</p><p><b>The Bottom Line</b></p><p>While Microsoft, supported by OpenAI, has been first the debut mass market usability of generative AI, it is certainly not the first to have invested in related developments, nor the only one with deployment-ready services up their sleeves. With Google being a close competitor capable of benefiting from the same, if not more, monetization strategies for generative AI, the latest momentum in the nascent technology serves as an opportunity for the company to establish a fresh trajectory of next-generation growth. And the swift deployment of Bard is expected to reinforce traction on Google’s developments in this subfield of AI, and draw attention to the multitude of new growth engines and incremental revenue streams enabled by related offerings down the road through cloud, search, advertising, and potentially other verticals.</p><p>With the stock now also trading at a discount to its historical levels and relative to its mega-cap internet peers – likely dragged by both looming macroeconomic headwinds and investors’ mispricing of the potential threats and opportunities facing Google’s future regarding generative AI developments – we remain optimistic about Alphabet Inc.&#39;s longer-term prospects.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

(NASDAQ: GOOG/NASDAQ: GOOGL) (\"Google\") is an “AI-first company,” and committing to making large language models like LaMDA available to the public within the “weeks and months” following its fourth quarter earnings call in early February, thetech giant has delivered.

Taken together with consistent top-line growth (ex-macro challenges in the near-term), it is unlikely that Google will have to shell out material incremental capex spend as a percentage of revenue in the foreseeable future, thus preserving cash flow expansion required to sustain valuation upsides.The Bottom LineWhile Microsoft, supported by OpenAI, has been first the debut mass market usability of generative AI, it is certainly not the first to have invested in related developments, nor the only one with deployment-ready services up their sleeves. With Google being a close competitor capable of benefiting from the same, if not more, monetization strategies for generative AI, the latest momentum in the nascent technology serves as an opportunity for the company to establish a fresh trajectory of next-generation growth. And the swift deployment of Bard is expected to reinforce traction on Google’s developments in this subfield of AI, and draw attention to the multitude of new growth engines and incremental revenue streams enabled by related offerings down the road through cloud, search, advertising, and potentially other verticals.With the stock now also trading at a discount to its historical levels and relative to its mega-cap internet peers – likely dragged by both looming macroeconomic headwinds and investors’ mispricing of the potential threats and opportunities facing Google’s future regarding generative AI developments – we remain optimistic about Alphabet Inc.'s longer-term prospects.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":169,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943585061,"gmtCreate":1679560042254,"gmtModify":1679560046556,"author":{"id":"3581724772671504","authorId":"3581724772671504","name":"Uasbau","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67cdf409f2239595269918513a5faac9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943585061","repostId":"1125366000","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1125366000","pubTimestamp":1679552559,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1125366000?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2023-03-23 14:22","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Meta Platforms: Profit Upside In 2023","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1125366000","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryMeta Platforms announced new jobs cuts last week that are meant to improve profitability metr","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>Meta Platforms announced new jobs cuts last week that are meant to improve profitability metrics.</li><li>I believe the advertising slump may not be as severe as expected as Meta Platforms&#39; revenue impact has remained quite limited.</li><li>Meta Platforms’ operating expenses are set to get revised to the downside in Q1&#39;23.

In 2021, it is estimated that 6.4 million electric vehicles (EVs) were sold around the world, of which 4 million of these were all-electric and 2.4 million plug-in hybrids. That total number is up 26% from 2020.</p><p>In 2022, analysts are actually expecting this growth to accelerate due to the number of models being available in the U.S. jumping from 62 to 100. If that is the case, global annual sales for electric vehicles should hit 10 million in the near future. For reference, 66 million total cars are estimated to have been sold around the world in 2021.</p><p>Those are all high-level numbers, but what about the financial opportunity? Assuming an average selling price of $25,000, 10 million EV sales would equate to $250 billion in annual sales. At 50 million EVs, which assumes they take over the majority of the auto market, that equates to $1.25 trillion in sales. Clearly, the opportunity is massive from a revenue standpoint.</p><h2>Margins will be low</h2><p>While the revenue opportunity for EVs is large, these manufacturing businesses also have low margins. For example, let&#39;s look at <b>Toyota </b>(NYSE:TM), the largest automaker in the world, with an estimated 8.5% market share in 2019. Over the last 12 months, the company has brought in $281 billion in revenue. On that revenue, only $31 billion turned into operating income, or an 11% operating margin.</p><p>Tesla, the biggest pure-play EV maker, is seeing just shy of 10% operating margins on $47 billion in revenue. Given the reduction in manufacturing complications of a battery pack versus an internal combustion engine, EV makers may achieve better operating margins than 11% at scale. But they still require bending metal to succeed, so the likelihood they will be much higher than 11% on average over the long term seems unlikely.</p><p>What&#39;s more, automotive businesses require tons of capital expenditures relative to their sales just to stay afloat. For example, Toyota spent almost $35 billion on capital investments over the last 12 months. Given its profit margins, that makes it very difficult for the company to return excess cash to shareholders -- which is the <i>only</i> driver of shareholder value in the long run. This is why Toyota&#39;s stock historically trades at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio at or around 10. And EV stocks will have a similar fate due to this capital intensity.</p><h2>Expectations are too high</h2><p>Let&#39;s move back to our revenue example. If annual EV sales reach $1.25 trillion and we assign a generous 15% operating margin across the industry, there will be $180 billion in annual operating income once EV sales hit 50 million a year. Remember, sales are currently at only 6.4 million, including plug-in hybrids, so this is a long way off. On that $180 billion in operating income, if you give it a 21% corporate tax rate, that is $142.2 billion in annual net income across the industry.</p><p>Put an average P/E of 10 (remember, this is typical for automotive companies because of the capital intensity) on the stocks, and you have $1.42 trillion in combined market value once EVs reach maturity. Looking at the five pure-play EV stocks right now, which are Tesla, Rivian, <b>Lucid Motors </b>(NASDAQ:LCID), <b>Nio </b>(NYSE:NIO), and <b>Xpeng </b>(NYSE:XPEV), their combined market caps are <i>currently</i> $1.34 trillion, or pretty darn close to what the whole industry will be worth at maturity with optimistic margin and growth assumptions.</p><p>And this doesn&#39;t include the legacy automakers like Toyota, <b>Ford Motor Company</b>, <b>GM</b>, and <b>Volkswagen</b>, which are all making major investments into EVs. Assuming none of these legacy manufacturers will at least capture some of the $1.42 trillion market value is naive, in my opinion.</p><p>Given all these numbers, it is clear that the electric vehicle market is overhyped. If you are invested in <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of these companies, or even a legacy automaker, you need to be confident in that specific company&#39;s ability to win market share and beat all these competitors. If that doesn&#39;t happen, it is likely your investment will go very poorly over the next decade.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Are Electric Vehicle Stocks Overhyped?</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\">\nAre Electric Vehicle Stocks Overhyped?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-14 23:30 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/14/are-electric-vehicle-stocks-overhyped-tesla/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The excitement around electric vehicle stocks is palpable.

From Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN) at a $76 billion market cap with no revenue to Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) breaching a $1.1 trillion market cap when it was valued under $100 billion less than three years ago, many investors are bullish on the opportunity in electric vehicles.And why wouldn't they be? The industry is growing quickly, up 26% year over year from 2020, and is going after a gigantic market opportunity in the worldwide car market. But just because these stocks are in a large, growing industry doesn't mean they will be great investments over the next decade. Just ask Cisco Systems investors who bought stock in 1999 and 2000.Are electric vehicle stocks overhyped? Yes. Let me explain why.Image source: Getty Images.Growth is strong, and the market opportunity is massiveTo start out, let's give some context around the global opportunity in electric vehicles and the overall automotive industry. In 2021, it is estimated that 6.4 million electric vehicles (EVs) were sold around the world, of which 4 million of these were all-electric and 2.4 million plug-in hybrids. That total number is up 26% from 2020.In 2022, analysts are actually expecting this growth to accelerate due to the number of models being available in the U.S. jumping from 62 to 100. If that is the case, global annual sales for electric vehicles should hit 10 million in the near future. For reference, 66 million total cars are estimated to have been sold around the world in 2021.Those are all high-level numbers, but what about the financial opportunity? Assuming an average selling price of $25,000, 10 million EV sales would equate to $250 billion in annual sales. At 50 million EVs, which assumes they take over the majority of the auto market, that equates to $1.25 trillion in sales. Clearly, the opportunity is massive from a revenue standpoint.Margins will be lowWhile the revenue opportunity for EVs is large, these manufacturing businesses also have low margins. For example, let's look at Toyota (NYSE:TM), the largest automaker in the world, with an estimated 8.5% market share in 2019. Over the last 12 months, the company has brought in $281 billion in revenue. On that revenue, only $31 billion turned into operating income, or an 11% operating margin.Tesla, the biggest pure-play EV maker, is seeing just shy of 10% operating margins on $47 billion in revenue. Given the reduction in manufacturing complications of a battery pack versus an internal combustion engine, EV makers may achieve better operating margins than 11% at scale. But they still require bending metal to succeed, so the likelihood they will be much higher than 11% on average over the long term seems unlikely.What's more, automotive businesses require tons of capital expenditures relative to their sales just to stay afloat. For example, Toyota spent almost $35 billion on capital investments over the last 12 months. Given its profit margins, that makes it very difficult for the company to return excess cash to shareholders -- which is the only driver of shareholder value in the long run. This is why Toyota's stock historically trades at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio at or around 10. And EV stocks will have a similar fate due to this capital intensity.Expectations are too highLet's move back to our revenue example. If annual EV sales reach $1.25 trillion and we assign a generous 15% operating margin across the industry, there will be $180 billion in annual operating income once EV sales hit 50 million a year. Remember, sales are currently at only 6.4 million, including plug-in hybrids, so this is a long way off.

Looking at the five pure-play EV stocks right now, which are Tesla, Rivian, Lucid Motors (NASDAQ:LCID), Nio (NYSE:NIO), and Xpeng (NYSE:XPEV), their combined market caps are currently $1.34 trillion, or pretty darn close to what the whole industry will be worth at maturity with optimistic margin and growth assumptions.And this doesn't include the legacy automakers like Toyota, Ford Motor Company, GM, and Volkswagen, which are all making major investments into EVs.

While the tech giant&#39;s stock split is spurring excitement among investors, and the Fed raising rates will have far-reaching effects and impact demand for tech stocks, the fact that some growth stocks are currently trading at very attractive discounts shouldn&#39;t be overlooked.</p><p>With that in mind, a panel of Motley Fool contributors has profiled three of their favorite, beaten-down growth stocks. Read on to see why they identified <b>Meta Platforms</b>, <b>Unity Software</b>, and <b>Netflix</b> as companies that could deliver incredible returns for growth-focused investors.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/64ff7a6e00d06fda91a21743cca65e92\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1414\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><p><b>Easy to hate, hard to ignore</b></p><p><b>Jason Hall</b> <b>(Meta Platforms):</b>I&#39;ll be the first to admit that I don&#39;t own shares of Meta Platforms. I&#39;ll also publicly state that I&#39;m unlikely to take my own advice on this and buy shares of the company, because it&#39;s a business model that I don&#39;t particularly support. I think social media is complex, and I am uncertain that it does more good than harm to society. But my personal reticence shouldn&#39;t be a reason for those who don&#39;t share my qualms from owning the company.</p><p>Because, man, it&#39;s <i>so</i> <i>profitable</i>.</p><p>Meta earned $39.3 billion in net income in 2021, and almost all of that was free cash flow. It is still one of the biggest and most important advertising platforms on earth. And despite the opinions of people like me who hold the company with a dash of disdain -- hypocrisy alert -- I continue to use Facebook and its other platforms, as do billions of other people who simultaneously complain about it.</p><p>The bottom line is, Meta Platforms has never been this cheap, trading for less than 16 times earnings and free cash flow, and almost 10 times operating cash flow.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/61f0da4a54e5ef70307ebaf7856b113f\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>FB PE Ratio data by YCharts</span></p><p>Should investors just hold their nose and buy shares? That&#39;s up to them. But I do think Meta will remain a cash cow, grow more profitable, and outperform the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> over the next five years. I think shareholders, users, and ad buyers should <i>also</i>continue to hold management&#39;s feet to the fire to be better for humanity.</p><p><b>This beaten-down software leader could be explosive</b></p><p><b>Keith Noonan</b> <b>(Unity Software):</b>Unity Software is a company that provides content-creation tools, and its services are currently used in the creation of more than two-thirds of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) content. In addition to leading the content-creation space for AR and VR and benefiting from unfolding metaverse trends, Unity is also already the market leader in development-engine services for the mobile games market.</p><p>More than 71% of the market&#39;s top-1000 best-performing mobile games rely on Unity&#39;s software, and developers of all sizes turn to the company&#39;s tools to create their content. For example, even gaming-industry leader <b>Activision Blizzard</b>&#39;s hugely successful <i>Call of Duty: Mobile</i> is built on Unity&#39;s software engine, and the software specialist has promising avenues to growth as it attracts more customers and sees increased spending from those already using its services.</p><p>The company closed out 2021 with a dollar-based net-retention rate of 140%, which means that existing customers on its platform spent an average of 40% compared to the prior-year period. The company&#39;s net-expansion rate was actually up from the 138% rate that it posted at the end of 2020, and sales growth for its development-engine services segment actually accelerated despite facing a challenging basis of comparison. Unity ended last year with 1,052 customers contributing $100,000 or more in trailing-12-month revenue, up 33% year over year, and these catalysts helped it grow sales 44% annually to reach $1.1 billion.</p><p>I think the market for interactive content is still poised for huge growth over the long term, and I recently purchased Unity stock for my portfolio. With shares down roughly 35% year to date and 56% from their high, this is an industry-leading software specialist that could go on to be a huge winner for long-term investors.</p><p><b>Netflix is spending nearly $20 billion on content while delivering robust profits</b></p><p><b>Parkev Tatevosian</b> <b>(Netflix)</b>: The streaming-content pioneer has fallen out of favor with the market. The stock is down 47% off its high in just a few months. That&#39;s created an opportunity for long-term investors to buy this beaten-down growth stock at a lower valuation. And make no mistake, Netflix is still a growth stock.</p><p>Much has been made of Netflix&#39;s slowing subscriber growth. Investors were always concerned that the surging acquisition and engagement Netflix experienced at the pandemic onset would not last. That is to be expected. No one thinks we will be streaming as much content as during the lockdown periods. Netflix has retained subscriber growth achieved over these last two years and is adding to its totals.</p><p>As of Dec. 31. 2021, Netflix boasts 222 million subscribers, up 9% over the same time the year before. The total was enough to generate $7.7 billion in revenue. That&#39;s money the streaming leader can use to spend on content to further its leadership position. Indeed, in the 12 months ended Dec. 31, Netflix spent $17 billion on content. All of this will spring the flywheel forward for Netflix. More content brings more subscribers, which brings more revenue that can be spent on more content, and so on.</p><p>Moreover, Netflix has reached a big enough scale to deliver robust profits. Net income rose to $5.1 billion in the year ended Dec. 31, up from $2.7 billion in the year prior. Fortunately for investors, Netflix can be purchased at its lowest price-to-earnings (P/E) in the last five years.

Netflix stock price is almost cut in half.Amazon's planned 20-for-1 stock split and the Federal Reserve's recently announced quarter-point interest rate hike have been some of the biggest stories in the investing world lately. While the tech giant's stock split is spurring excitement among investors, and the Fed raising rates will have far-reaching effects and impact demand for tech stocks, the fact that some growth stocks are currently trading at very attractive discounts shouldn't be overlooked.With that in mind, a panel of Motley Fool contributors has profiled three of their favorite, beaten-down growth stocks. Read on to see why they identified Meta Platforms, Unity Software, and Netflix as companies that could deliver incredible returns for growth-focused investors.Image source: Getty Images.Easy to hate, hard to ignoreJason Hall (Meta Platforms):I'll be the first to admit that I don't own shares of Meta Platforms. I'll also publicly state that I'm unlikely to take my own advice on this and buy shares of the company, because it's a business model that I don't particularly support. I think social media is complex, and I am uncertain that it does more good than harm to society. But my personal reticence shouldn't be a reason for those who don't share my qualms from owning the company.Because, man, it's so profitable.Meta earned $39.3 billion in net income in 2021, and almost all of that was free cash flow. It is still one of the biggest and most important advertising platforms on earth. And despite the opinions of people like me who hold the company with a dash of disdain -- hypocrisy alert -- I continue to use Facebook and its other platforms, as do billions of other people who simultaneously complain about it.The bottom line is, Meta Platforms has never been this cheap, trading for less than 16 times earnings and free cash flow, and almost 10 times operating cash flow.FB PE Ratio data by YChartsShould investors just hold their nose and buy shares? That's up to them. But I do think Meta will remain a cash cow, grow more profitable, and outperform the S&P 500 over the next five years. I think shareholders, users, and ad buyers should alsocontinue to hold management's feet to the fire to be better for humanity.This beaten-down software leader could be explosiveKeith Noonan (Unity Software):Unity Software is a company that provides content-creation tools, and its services are currently used in the creation of more than two-thirds of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) content. In addition to leading the content-creation space for AR and VR and benefiting from unfolding metaverse trends, Unity is also already the market leader in development-engine services for the mobile games market.More than 71% of the market's top-1000 best-performing mobile games rely on Unity's software, and developers of all sizes turn to the company's tools to create their content. For example, even gaming-industry leader Activision Blizzard's hugely successful Call of Duty: Mobile is built on Unity's software engine, and the software specialist has promising avenues to growth as it attracts more customers and sees increased spending from those already using its services.The company closed out 2021 with a dollar-based net-retention rate of 140%, which means that existing customers on its platform spent an average of 40% compared to the prior-year period. The company's net-expansion rate was actually up from the 138% rate that it posted at the end of 2020, and sales growth for its development-engine services segment actually accelerated despite facing a challenging basis of comparison. Unity ended last year with 1,052 customers contributing $100,000 or more in trailing-12-month revenue, up 33% year over year, and these catalysts helped it grow sales 44% annually to reach $1.1 billion.I think the market for interactive content is still poised for huge growth over the long term, and I recently purchased Unity stock for my portfolio. With shares down roughly 35% year to date and 56% from their high, this is an industry-leading software specialist that could go on to be a huge winner for long-term investors.Netflix is spending nearly $20 billion on content while delivering robust profitsParkev Tatevosian (Netflix): The streaming-content pioneer has fallen out of favor with the market. The stock is down 47% off its high in just a few months. That's created an opportunity for long-term investors to buy this beaten-down growth stock at a lower valuation. And make no mistake, Netflix is still a growth stock.Much has been made of Netflix's slowing subscriber growth. Investors were always concerned that the surging acquisition and engagement Netflix experienced at the pandemic onset would not last. That is to be expected. No one thinks we will be streaming as much content as during the lockdown periods. Netflix has retained subscriber growth achieved over these last two years and is adding to its totals.As of Dec. 31. 2021, Netflix boasts 222 million subscribers, up 9% over the same time the year before. The total was enough to generate $7.7 billion in revenue. That's money the streaming leader can use to spend on content to further its leadership position. Indeed, in the 12 months ended Dec. 31, Netflix spent $17 billion on content. All of this will spring the flywheel forward for Netflix. More content brings more subscribers, which brings more revenue that can be spent on more content, and so on.Moreover, Netflix has reached a big enough scale to deliver robust profits. Net income rose to $5.1 billion in the year ended Dec. 31, up from $2.7 billion in the year prior. Fortunately for investors, Netflix can be purchased at its lowest price-to-earnings (P/E) in the last five years. At 32.86, the P/E is down considerably from the over 120 it was trading for around July 2019.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":175,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"9000000000000665","authorId":"9000000000000665","name":"BurnellStella","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"content":"So which stock are you bullish on right now?","text":"So which stock are you bullish on right now?","html":"So which stock are you bullish on right now?"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9979132335,"gmtCreate":1688269313827,"gmtModify":1688269319140,"author":{"id":"3581724772671504","authorId":"3581724772671504","name":"Uasbau","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67cdf409f2239595269918513a5faac9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Congrats!&nbsp; After the bear of 2022 spiked by interest rates hike, all FAANGMT stocks perform great this year.

Invest $100,000 in These 3 Stocks and Wait a Decade","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2225524274","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The math adds up if these companies can keep performing.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Who wants to be a millionaire? With the possible exception of billionaires, just about everyone does. The idea spawned a British (and then an American) quiz show. On television, it can happen overnight.</p><p>In investing, becoming a millionaire takes time. Buying shares of high-performing companies can, over time, produce life-changing gains. <b>The</b> <b>Trade</b> <b>Desk</b>, <b>Paycom Software</b>, and <b>Align</b> <b>Technology</b> are three that I believe have that potential.</p><p>Let&#39;s look at their earnings, growth rates, and valuations to see how they could transform a $100,000 portfolio into a seven-figure retirement nest egg over the next decade.</p><h2>1. The Trade Desk</h2><p>There is an old saying in the advertising business that half of ad spending is wasted, but nobody knows which half. The Trade Desk is eliminating that waste with its data-driven self-service platform. Its customers manage their ad spending on more than 500 billion digital opportunities per day. The goal is to help customers make the most intelligent ad-buying decisions and provide them with an abundance of performance feedback. In today&#39;s digital economy, it&#39;s invaluable.</p><p>And business is growing like a weed. Earnings per share (EPS) are expected to climb more than 23% next year. That&#39;s a reasonable rate to use in our calculation. The company has grown revenue 375% over the past five years. Also, gross spend on Trade Desk&#39;s platform climbed 47% last year to $6.2 billion. And management pegs the global ad-spend opportunity at $750 billion, with about $50 billion in display advertising. That offers plenty of room to grow for years.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3105e52ee3274f0a262bd444d428b18f\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>TTD revenue (TTM). Data by YCharts. TTM = trailing 12 months.</p><p>Wall Street sees the potential. The Trade Desk&#39;s price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio has varied between 40 and 120 over the past few years. We&#39;ll use 50 for our calculations.</p><p>Doing the math on an initial investment of $33,333.33 (a third of the $100,000) leads to a stake in The Trade Desk worth almost $190,000 in 2032. That relies on bold assumptions. But they are well within what the company has delivered so far.</p><h2>2. Paycom</h2><p>Paycom offers businesses a platform to manage employee payroll, time and attendance, and benefits administration, among other things. Its product was built for the cloud. That&#39;s different from many traditional human capital management (HCM) vendors that have pieced together acquired software over the years.</p><p>Customers can clearly tell the difference. Paycom topped $1 billion in revenue last year for the first time, a 26% increase over 2020. Most importantly, that revenue is recurring and sticky. Revenue retention was 94% in 2021. Customers stick around once they start using the platform.</p><p>Before the pandemic, Paycom&#39;s top line was expanding between 30% and 45% each year. We&#39;ll use last year&#39;s 26% for our calculation and apply a multiple of 60 times earnings. That seems high. But shares have stayed within a range of 50 to 100 times earnings over the years.</p><p>For Paycom, that <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-third of the $100,000 hypothetically invested in 2022 turns into more than $350,000 a decade from now. That would make it a 10-bagger. While it might seem unlikely, if the market continues to reward predictable revenue, and Paycom continues to grow, it&#39;s possible. After all, its $1.1 billion in 2021 revenue is a drop in the bucket of an HCM market that is predicted to reach $47 billion by 2029.</p><h2>3. Align Technology</h2><p>The company best known for its Invisalign clear teeth-straightening system is actually a vertically integrated combination of several businesses. They all help people get straighter teeth faster, and orthodontists and dentists see more clients every year. It also provides scanners and software -- two acquisitions -- that help practitioners develop and communicate a plan for patients.</p><p>The growth opportunity is tremendous. Management estimates 500 million potential customers in the world with 21 million orthodontic starts each year -- two-thirds of them teens. For context, it shipped 2.55 million aligners last year.</p><p>Align is the crown jewel in our attempt to grow a million-dollar portfolio. The $33,333.33 invested in it could grow over the next 10 years into $461,000. That&#39;s assuming the $12.50 analysts expect this year grows at the midpoint of management&#39;s long-term guidance of 20% to 30% a year. Similar to the other two stocks, Align typically trades at a premium. We&#39;ll use 50 times earnings, slightly above the bottom of the 40 to 100 historical P/E range. It&#39;s an amazing potential return when running the numbers.</p><h2>&#34;It&#39;s tough to make predictions, especially about the future&#34;</h2><p>That quote from Yankees legend Yogi Berra underscores a key point in the analysis above. No one knows what the world is going to look like in 10 years. Investors with a long-term mindset need to block out the noise without being irresponsible.</p><p>The Trade Desk, Paycom, and Align have all grown rapidly while turning a profit. I expect that to continue. If the assumptions hold, a $100,000 investment will be worth $1 million in 10 short years.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b4adf9eeb7896d353fe014f3f351429\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"302\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Calculations and chart by author.</p><p>It&#39;s an interesting exercise that relies on the past as a guide.

With the possible exception of billionaires, just about everyone does. The idea spawned a British (and then an American) quiz show. On television, it can happen overnight.In investing, becoming a millionaire takes time. Buying shares of high-performing companies can, over time, produce life-changing gains. The Trade Desk, Paycom Software, and Align Technology are three that I believe have that potential.Let's look at their earnings, growth rates, and valuations to see how they could transform a $100,000 portfolio into a seven-figure retirement nest egg over the next decade.1. The Trade DeskThere is an old saying in the advertising business that half of ad spending is wasted, but nobody knows which half. The Trade Desk is eliminating that waste with its data-driven self-service platform. Its customers manage their ad spending on more than 500 billion digital opportunities per day. The goal is to help customers make the most intelligent ad-buying decisions and provide them with an abundance of performance feedback. In today's digital economy, it's invaluable.And business is growing like a weed. Earnings per share (EPS) are expected to climb more than 23% next year. That's a reasonable rate to use in our calculation. The company has grown revenue 375% over the past five years. Also, gross spend on Trade Desk's platform climbed 47% last year to $6.2 billion. And management pegs the global ad-spend opportunity at $750 billion, with about $50 billion in display advertising. That offers plenty of room to grow for years.TTD revenue (TTM). Data by YCharts. TTM = trailing 12 months.Wall Street sees the potential. The Trade Desk's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio has varied between 40 and 120 over the past few years. We'll use 50 for our calculations.Doing the math on an initial investment of $33,333.33 (a third of the $100,000) leads to a stake in The Trade Desk worth almost $190,000 in 2032. That relies on bold assumptions. But they are well within what the company has delivered so far.2. PaycomPaycom offers businesses a platform to manage employee payroll, time and attendance, and benefits administration, among other things. Its product was built for the cloud. That's different from many traditional human capital management (HCM) vendors that have pieced together acquired software over the years.Customers can clearly tell the difference. Paycom topped $1 billion in revenue last year for the first time, a 26% increase over 2020. Most importantly, that revenue is recurring and sticky. Revenue retention was 94% in 2021. Customers stick around once they start using the platform.Before the pandemic, Paycom's top line was expanding between 30% and 45% each year. We'll use last year's 26% for our calculation and apply a multiple of 60 times earnings. That seems high. But shares have stayed within a range of 50 to 100 times earnings over the years.For Paycom, that one-third of the $100,000 hypothetically invested in 2022 turns into more than $350,000 a decade from now. That would make it a 10-bagger. While it might seem unlikely, if the market continues to reward predictable revenue, and Paycom continues to grow, it's possible. After all, its $1.1 billion in 2021 revenue is a drop in the bucket of an HCM market that is predicted to reach $47 billion by 2029.3. Align TechnologyThe company best known for its Invisalign clear teeth-straightening system is actually a vertically integrated combination of several businesses. They all help people get straighter teeth faster, and orthodontists and dentists see more clients every year. It also provides scanners and software -- two acquisitions -- that help practitioners develop and communicate a plan for patients.The growth opportunity is tremendous. Management estimates 500 million potential customers in the world with 21 million orthodontic starts each year -- two-thirds of them teens. For context, it shipped 2.55 million aligners last year.Align is the crown jewel in our attempt to grow a million-dollar portfolio. The $33,333.33 invested in it could grow over the next 10 years into $461,000. That's assuming the $12.50 analysts expect this year grows at the midpoint of management's long-term guidance of 20% to 30% a year. Similar to the other two stocks, Align typically trades at a premium. We'll use 50 times earnings, slightly above the bottom of the 40 to 100 historical P/E range. It's an amazing potential return when running the numbers.\"It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future\"That quote from Yankees legend Yogi Berra underscores a key point in the analysis above. No one knows what the world is going to look like in 10 years. Investors with a long-term mindset need to block out the noise without being irresponsible.The Trade Desk, Paycom, and Align have all grown rapidly while turning a profit. I expect that to continue. If the assumptions hold, a $100,000 investment will be worth $1 million in 10 short years.Calculations and chart by author.It's an interesting exercise that relies on the past as a guide. If the performance changes, so can the outcome. That's why it's best to build a diversified portfolio of a lot more than three stocks.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":77,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9093988201,"gmtCreate":1643501014083,"gmtModify":1676533825484,"author":{"id":"3581724772671504","authorId":"3581724772671504","name":"Uasbau","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67cdf409f2239595269918513a5faac9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9093988201","repostId":"2207877131","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2207877131","pubTimestamp":1643416687,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2207877131?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-01-29 08:38","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Visa's Q1 Earnings Beat on Solid Transaction Growth","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2207877131","media":"Zacks","summary":"Visa Inc. reported first-quarter fiscal 2022 earnings of $1.81 per share, which outpaced consensus e","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/V\">Visa</a> Inc. </b>reported first-quarter fiscal 2022 earnings of $1.81 per share, which outpaced consensus estimate of $1.69.

There was a big imbalance,&#34; Powell said in a news conference after Fed policymakers unanimously agreed to raise the central bank&#39;s benchmark overnight interest rate to a range of 3.00%-3.25%. &#34;What we need is supply and demand to get better aligned ... We probably in the housing market have to go through a correction to get back to that place.&#34;</p><p>That theme, of a continuing mismatch between U.S. demand for goods and services and the ability of the country to produce or import them, ran through a briefing in which Powell stuck with the hawkish tone set during his remarks last month at the Jackson Hole central banking conference in Wyoming.</p><p>Recent inflation data has shown little to no improvement despite the Fed&#39;s aggressive tightening - it also announced 75-basis-point rate hikes in June and July - and the labor market remains robust with wages increasing as well.</p><p>The federal funds rate projected for the end of this year signals another 1.25 percentage points in rate hikes to come in the Fed&#39;s two remaining policy meetings in 2022, a level that implies another 75-basis-point increase in the offing.</p><p>&#34;The committee is strongly committed to returning inflation to its 2% objective,&#34; the central bank&#39;s rate-setting Federal Open Market Committee said in its policy statement after the end of a two-day policy meeting.</p><p>The Fed &#34;anticipates that ongoing increases in the target range will be appropriate.&#34;</p><p><b>GROWTH SLOWDOWN</b></p><p>The Fed&#39;s target policy rate is now at its highest level since 2008 - and new projections show it rising to the 4.25%-4.50% range by the end of this year and ending 2023 at 4.50%-4.75%.</p><p>Powell said the indicated path of rates showed the Fed was &#34;strongly resolved&#34; to bring down inflation from the highest levels in four decades and that officials would &#34;keep at it until the job is done&#34; even at the risk of unemployment rising and growth slowing to a stall.</p><p>&#34;We have got to get inflation behind us,&#34; Powell told reporters. &#34;I wish there were a painless way to do that. There isn&#39;t.&#34;</p><p>Inflation by the Fed&#39;s preferred measure has been running at more than three times the central bank&#39;s target. The new projections put it on a slow path back to 2% in 2025, an extended Fed battle to quell the highest bout of inflation since the 1980s, and one that potentially pushes the economy to the borderline of a recession.</p><p>The Fed said that &#34;recent indicators point to modest growth in spending and production,&#34; but the new projections put year-end economic growth for 2022 at 0.2%, rising to 1.2% in 2023, well below the economy&#39;s potential. The unemployment rate, currently at 3.7%, is projected to rise to 3.8% this year and to 4.4% in 2023. That would be above the half-percentage-point rise in unemployment that has been associated with past recessions.</p><p>&#34;The Fed was late to recognize inflation, late to start raising interest rates, and late to start unwinding bond purchases.

on Nasdaq, a 2.38-to-1 ratio favored advancers.\nThe S&P 500 posted nine new 52-week highs and eight new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 52 new highs and 66 new lows.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 9.91 billion shares, compared with the 9.99 billion average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":885731825,"gmtCreate":1631833302367,"gmtModify":1676530645547,"author":{"id":"3581724772671504","authorId":"3581724772671504","name":"Uasbau","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67cdf409f2239595269918513a5faac9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like it;

The best-known smart investor of them all, Warren Buffett, famously doesn&#39;t try to time the market. Instead, his core strategy is to buy quality stocks at reasonable valuations -- and his holdings include positions in the first two companies discussed here.</p><p>In the case of each of these three stocks, the buy thesis now pretty much requires investors to overlook their near-term negatives in favor of their long-term positives. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/UPS\">UPS </a>, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GOOGL\">Alphabet</a> all face earnings headwinds in 2023, but they will likely emerge stronger from any recession that coult potentially kick off this year. Here&#39;s why.</p><h2>1. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple</a> is improving its earnings quality</h2><p>A combination of supply chain disruptions, a weakening environment for consumer discretionary spending, and adverse foreign currency exchange movements hit Apple in calendar 2022, and some of those issues are likely to extend well into 2023. That said, Apple&#39;s dominant position in the U.S. smartphone market and its opportunity to grow sales and market share worldwide as the number of smartphone users increases haven&#39;t gone away. Moreover, the underlying growth of its higher-margin services business is improving the quality of its earnings.</p><p>While product revenue fell 8% year over year in its recently reported first quarter of fiscal 2023, its services revenue rose 6.4%. It would have increased by closer to 13% without the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rates. The growth of Apple&#39;s services revenue (which comes with a gross margin of nearly 71% compared to around 36% for its products segment) is improving Apple&#39;s long-term margin profile.

The best-known smart investor of them all, Warren Buffett, famously doesn't try to time the market. Instead, his core strategy is to buy quality stocks at reasonable valuations -- and his holdings include positions in the first two companies discussed here.In the case of each of these three stocks, the buy thesis now pretty much requires investors to overlook their near-term negatives in favor of their long-term positives. Apple , UPS , and Alphabet all face earnings headwinds in 2023, but they will likely emerge stronger from any recession that coult potentially kick off this year. Here's why.1. Apple is improving its earnings qualityA combination of supply chain disruptions, a weakening environment for consumer discretionary spending, and adverse foreign currency exchange movements hit Apple in calendar 2022, and some of those issues are likely to extend well into 2023. That said, Apple's dominant position in the U.S. smartphone market and its opportunity to grow sales and market share worldwide as the number of smartphone users increases haven't gone away. Moreover, the underlying growth of its higher-margin services business is improving the quality of its earnings.While product revenue fell 8% year over year in its recently reported first quarter of fiscal 2023, its services revenue rose 6.4%. It would have increased by closer to 13% without the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rates. The growth of Apple's services revenue (which comes with a gross margin of nearly 71% compared to around 36% for its products segment) is improving Apple's long-term margin profile. Moreover, services now provide about 20% of Apple's total revenue (based on its fiscal 2022 results).Finally, as CFO Luca Maestri noted during the fiscal Q1 2023 earnings call, \"our installed base of active devices grew double digits and achieved all-time records in each geographic segment and in each major product category.\" That's likely to improve Apple's potential to grow its service revenue.2. United Parcel Service is focusing on more-profitable deliveriesAnother example of a company that is facing near-term headwinds but also significantly improving its business is UPS. The company's revenue declined 2.7% in the fourth quarter of 2022, and CFO Brian Newman said he expects that in 2023, average daily volume in its U.S. domestic segment will be \"down slightly,\" and average daily volume and revenue in its international segment will decline by low single-digit percentages.Still, note that Newman also said U.S. domestic segment revenue would increase by a low single-digit percentage despite that declining volume. That projection speaks to the underlying operational improvements UPS has been making. In a nutshell, management's transformational strategy to grow revenue from targeted end markets such as small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and the healthcare industry is working.Meanwhile, the company's emphasis on focusing on more-profitable deliveries -- which also entails reducing its lower-margin deliveries for Amazon.com -- means continuing \"a mutually agreed path to glide that business down in 2023,\" according to Newman.As such, UPS should continue to improve its underlying profitability even if a recession in 2023 leads to a revenue decline.Management's guidance for $8 billion in free cash flow (FCF) in 2023 would put UPS on a price-to-forward-FCF ratio of almost 21. That's a reasonable multiple if the company's earnings hit a trough this year and recover in the coming years, driven by underlying growth in SMBs, healthcare, and more-profitable e-commerce deliveries.3. Alphabet's wins will come from the cloudThe case for buying Alphabet is relatively simple. Solid but slowing growth in its Google services (Search, YouTube ads, and Google Network) will be balanced by the ongoing growth of Google Cloud as it marches toward profitability -- a business in which Alphabet has \"really been investing ahead of our revenues,\" CFO Ruth Porat said on its recent Q4 earnings call.The Google Cloud strategy makes perfect sense considering the potential for long-term cash generation from recurring revenue from customers that are likely to stay with Google Cloud on a multiyear basis.As for Google's other services, if there's a recession, that will hurt advertising revenue across the board, and the headline figure of a 2% decline in search revenue in the fourth quarter doesn't look good. Still, in that quarter, Alphabet's earnings were also pressured by adverse foreign exchange movements. Excluding the impact of those currency exchange headwinds, search revenues \"delivered moderate underlying growth in Q4,\" according to Porat. Moreover, Google's overall revenue growth of just 1% was 7% in constant currency.All told, Alphabet can look ahead to a year of solid but unspectacular growth. At the same time, Google Cloud is moving toward profitability, and Wall Street expects an incredible $70 billion in FCF, putting it on a forward-price-to-FCF multiple of 19. That's a good multiple for a company with Alphabet's long-term growth prospects.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":54,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9916720262,"gmtCreate":1664682453856,"gmtModify":1676537493924,"author":{"id":"3581724772671504","authorId":"3581724772671504","name":"Uasbau","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67cdf409f2239595269918513a5faac9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Inflation still high, strong USD that may lead to poor earnings in the coming QR, Global growth slow down, weakening currencies other than the US, floods, disasters, conflicts... all causing market uncertainties?

A slump in British government bond prices, meanwhile, forced the Bank of England to carry out temporary purchases of long-dated gilts. Many investors are looking to the next three months with trepidation, betting the selloff in U.S. stocks will continue until there are signs the Fed is winning its battle against inflation. Yet the last quarter of the year has often been a beneficial time for U.S. equities, spurring hopes that markets may have already seen the worst of the selloff.PASS THE DIPThe strategy of buying stock market dips yielded rich rewards for investors in the past but failed badly in 2022: the S&P 500 has rallied by 6% or more four times this year and went on to make a fresh low in each instance.The third quarter saw the index rise by nearly 14% before reversing to make a fresh two-year low in September after investors recalibrated their expectations for even more aggressive Fed tightening.LOOK OUT BELOW?With several big Wall Street banks expecting the benchmark index to end the year below current levels - Bank of America and Goldman Sachs both recently published year-end targets of 3,600 - the outlook for dip-buying remains murky.In addition, the current bear market, which has so far lasted 268 days and notched a peak-to-trough decline of about 24%, is still relatively short and shallow compared with past drops. Since 1950, the average bear market has lasted 391 days with an average peak-to-trough drop of 35.6%, according to Yardeni Research.LOOK TO BONDSThough equities have been volatile, the gyrations in bond markets have been comparatively worse.The ICE BofAML U.S. Bond Market Option Volatility Estimate Index shot to its highest level since March 2020 as the ICE BofA US Treasury index is on track for its biggest annual drop on record.By comparison, the Cboe Volatility Index - the so-called Wall Street \"fear gauge\" - has failed to scale its March peak.Some investors believe stock turbulence will continue until bond markets calm down.\"I think there is a good scenario where once we get through the bond market violence, we get to a more tradable bottom (for stocks),\" said Michael Purves, chief executive at Tallbacken Capital Advisors in New York.…AND THE DOLLARSoaring U.S. interest rates, a relatively robust American economy and investors' reach for safe haven amidst a rise in financial market volatility has boosted the U.S. dollar – to the detriment of other global currencies.The greenback is up about 7% for the quarter against a basket of currencies and stands near its highest level since May 2002. The dollar’s strength has the Bank of Japan to shore up the yen through interventions while also presenting an earnings headwind for U.S. corporates.\"Market risk-takers are grappling with the double-barreled threat of persistent dollar strength and dramatically higher interest rates,\" Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Cresset Capital, said in a note.EARNINGS TESTThird quarter earnings may present another obstacle to markets, as companies factor in everything from dollar-fueled currency headwinds to supply chain issues.Analysts have become more downbeat on third quarter profit growth, with consensus estimates falling to 4.6% from 7.2% in early August, according to Refinitiv IBES. So far, that is only slightly worse than the median 2.2 percentage point decline ahead of reporting periods historically, yet warnings from companies such as FedEX and Ford have hinted at the possibility of more pain to come.'TIS THE SEASONThe calendar may offer weary stock investors some hope.The fourth quarter is historically the best period for returns for major U.S. stock indexes, with the S&P 500 averaging a 4.2% gain since 1949, according to the Stock Trader's Almanac.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":86,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"9000000000000494","authorId":"9000000000000494","name":"MamieBenson","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"content":"Don't worry.

He&#39;s overseen the creation of more than $700 billion in shareholder value since becoming CEO in 1965, and has led Berkshire&#39;s Class A shares (BRK.A) to an average annual return of greater than 20%. This works out to an aggregate return of better than 3,800,000% since Dec. 31, 1964.</p><p>Yet what might surprise investors is that the Oracle of Omaha, as Buffett has come to be known, isn&#39;t a big fan of diversification. Even though Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s nearly $349 billion investment portfolio held 45 securities as of Sept. 30, nearly three-quarters of the company&#39;s invested assets, as of Feb. 6, were tied up in just four stocks.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1077c8372814d2b8150e933b4c608005\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.</p><h2>Apple: $156.5 billion market value (44.8% of invested assets)</h2><p>Speaking strictly from a nominal basis, tech kingpin <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AAPL\">Apple </a> is, hands down, Buffett&#39;s greatest investment.</p><p>According to the cost basis provided in Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s 2020 shareholder letter, Buffett&#39;s company holds more than 907 million shares of Apple at a cost basis of $34.26 per share. With Apple closing at $172.39 a share last week, it means Buffett&#39;s company is sitting on an unrealized gain of $125.4 billion! Additionally, with the most valuable publicly traded company in the world doling out $0.88 annually as a dividend, Berkshire is raking in nearly $799 million in annual dividend income.</p><p>Buffett has long believed that diversification is only necessary if you don&#39;t know what you&#39;re doing. With close to 45% of Berkshire&#39;s invested assets tied up in Apple, he clearly has faith in Apple&#39;s long-term growth opportunities and CEO Tim Cook.</p><p>For the time being, Apple&#39;s products continue to generate the bulk of its revenue. The iPhone remains the most popular smartphone in the U.S., with the introduction of 5G sending iPhone sales to record levels. The company&#39;s products, ranging from iPhone to Mac and iPad, have created a loyal customer base.</p><p>However, Apple&#39;s future hinges on its ongoing transformation to a service-oriented business. Focusing on higher-margin subscriptions and wearables is the company&#39;s ticket to reducing the revenue lumpiness associated with product replacement cycles.</p><h2>Bank of America: $49.9 billion market value (14.3% of invested assets)</h2><p>Buffett and his investing team are also absolutely crushing it with their stake in money center giant <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BAC\"><b>Bank of America</b> </a>.</p><p>Berkshire Hathaway holds more than 1 billion shares of BofA in its portfolio at an average cost of $14.17 per share. Based on a closing price of $48.28 last week, the Oracle of Omaha is carrying an unrealized gain of $35.2 billion. Further, Bank of America&#39;s $0.84 annual payout is putting nearly $868 million in dividend income into Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s coffers.</p><p>It&#39;s no secret that Buffett loves bank stocks, and there&#39;s plenty of reason for Buffett to be infatuated with BofA. For instance, no money center bank is more interest sensitive than Bank of America. According to the company&#39;s year-end report, a 100-basis-point parallel shift in the interest rate yield curve would increase its net interest income by an estimated $6.5 billion over 12 months.

He's overseen the creation of more than $700 billion in shareholder value since becoming CEO in 1965, and has led Berkshire's Class A shares (BRK.A) to an average annual return of greater than 20%. This works out to an aggregate return of better than 3,800,000% since Dec. 31, 1964.Yet what might surprise investors is that the Oracle of Omaha, as Buffett has come to be known, isn't a big fan of diversification. Even though Berkshire Hathaway's nearly $349 billion investment portfolio held 45 securities as of Sept. 30, nearly three-quarters of the company's invested assets, as of Feb. 6, were tied up in just four stocks.Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett. Image source: The Motley Fool.Apple: $156.5 billion market value (44.8% of invested assets)Speaking strictly from a nominal basis, tech kingpin Apple  is, hands down, Buffett's greatest investment.According to the cost basis provided in Berkshire Hathaway's 2020 shareholder letter, Buffett's company holds more than 907 million shares of Apple at a cost basis of $34.26 per share. With Apple closing at $172.39 a share last week, it means Buffett's company is sitting on an unrealized gain of $125.4 billion! Additionally, with the most valuable publicly traded company in the world doling out $0.88 annually as a dividend, Berkshire is raking in nearly $799 million in annual dividend income.Buffett has long believed that diversification is only necessary if you don't know what you're doing. With close to 45% of Berkshire's invested assets tied up in Apple, he clearly has faith in Apple's long-term growth opportunities and CEO Tim Cook.For the time being, Apple's products continue to generate the bulk of its revenue. The iPhone remains the most popular smartphone in the U.S., with the introduction of 5G sending iPhone sales to record levels. The company's products, ranging from iPhone to Mac and iPad, have created a loyal customer base.However, Apple's future hinges on its ongoing transformation to a service-oriented business. Focusing on higher-margin subscriptions and wearables is the company's ticket to reducing the revenue lumpiness associated with product replacement cycles.Bank of America: $49.9 billion market value (14.3% of invested assets)Buffett and his investing team are also absolutely crushing it with their stake in money center giant Bank of America .Berkshire Hathaway holds more than 1 billion shares of BofA in its portfolio at an average cost of $14.17 per share. Based on a closing price of $48.28 last week, the Oracle of Omaha is carrying an unrealized gain of $35.2 billion. Further, Bank of America's $0.84 annual payout is putting nearly $868 million in dividend income into Berkshire Hathaway's coffers.It's no secret that Buffett loves bank stocks, and there's plenty of reason for Buffett to be infatuated with BofA. For instance, no money center bank is more interest sensitive than Bank of America. According to the company's year-end report, a 100-basis-point parallel shift in the interest rate yield curve would increase its net interest income by an estimated $6.5 billion over 12 months. With the Federal Reserve set to raise lending rates multiple times in 2022, BofA is in position to benefit more than any other big bank.Bank of America's digitization efforts are paying off handsomely, too. Over the past three years, the number of digital active users has grown by 5 million to 41 million, with 49% of all transactions completed online or via mobile app in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to 31% in the comparable quarter three years earlier. This digitization push is allowing BofA to consolidate some of its branches and lower its expenses.Image source: American Express.American Express: $28.2 billion market value (8.1% of invested assets)Buffett and his team have a large position in credit services company American Express  as well.AmEx, as the company is more commonly known, has been a continuous holding in Berkshire's portfolio since 1993. With American Express closing at $185.85 last week and Berkshire sporting an average cost basis of only $8.49 a share, it means the Oracle of Omaha has gained almost 2,100%, or close to $26.9 billion. Berkshire Hathaway is also on pace to collect almost $261 million in dividend income from AmEx this year.American Express fits right in with Buffett's theme of buying cyclical businesses that get better over time.
