so-called “Woodstock for Capitalists” online. Warren Buffett addressed the company’s massive stock purchases in the first quarter, the performance of its collection of businesses, and added his signature folksy anecdotes and life advice.</p><p>Tens of thousands of Buffett devoteeswere back in Omaha to hear fromthe legendary investorand Berkshire Hathaway (ticker: BRK.A, BRK.B) CEO, scoop up discounts at a shareholder-only shopping day, and swap stories of their experiences following Berkshire over the years.</p><h3><b>Warren Buffett says inflation "swindles almost everybody"</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron and doled out sharp criticism against speculation in the market.</p><p>Speaking at Berkshire Hathaway's first in-person annual meeting since 2019, Buffett went so far as to say the market's turned into a "gambling parlor."</p><p>The Oracle of Omaha also commented on inflation, building on prior remarks he has made. Buffett had previously said that inflation "swindles" equity investors, but noted Saturday that it "swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody."</p><h3><b>Berkshire’s first-quarter results</b></h3><p>Buffett proceeded with an overview of Berkshire’s first-quarter financial results, which were released on Saturday morning. Operating earnings after taxes rose less than 1% from the year-earlier period, to about $7 billion. The company reduced the pace of its stock buybacks, but Berkshire was active in purchasing other companies’ shares.</p><p>Berkshire spent $3.2 billion on share repurchases in the first quarter, and bought $51.9 billion in other equities. The company also sold $10.3 billion worth of non-Berkshire shares. Berkshire ended the period with $102.7 billion in cash and U.S. Treasury bills.</p><p>“We will always have a lot of cash on hand,” Buffett said.</p><p>A question addressed the performance of Berkshire’s Geico and BNSF Railway subsidiaries relative to competitors. Buffett kicked it over to Jain, who oversees Berkshire’s insurance operations, and Abel, who oversees non-insurance operations.</p><p>Jain admitted that lately Progressive (PGR) has done better than Geico in terms of its profit margin and growth rate. He attributed that to the Berkshire subsidiary’s later entry into telematics, or usage-based insurance, which adjusts customers’ rates based on how they drive. Progressive has years of additional data and experience in the business, but Jain said that Geico was seeing promising early results from its telematics policies, branded as DriveEasy.</p><p>Abel defended the approach of BNSF, which hasn’t been able to embrace precision-scheduled railroading as much of the railroad industry has.</p><h3><b>Berkshire is buying other companies’ stocks again</b></h3><p>The first question of the meeting was about Berkshire quickly becoming more active in the stock market. In Buffett’s 2021 annual shareholder letter, dated Feb. 26, he wrote that there were few attractive opportunities out there. Since then, Berkshire struck a deal to acquire insurer Alleghany (Y) for $11.6 billion, and scooped up billions of dollars of shares of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CVX\">Chevron</a>, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/OXY\">Occidental Petroleum</a>, and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HPQ\">HP</a>.</p><p>Asked what changed, Munger said: “We found some things we preferred owning to Treasury bills.” Buffett added, “As usual, Charlie has given the full answer, but I’ll still talk more and say less.”</p><p>Buffett explained that Occidental’s capital-return plans and higher oil prices in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine made the stock a buy, and that Alleghany was a natural fit for Berkshire’s insurance operations.</p><p>Buffett also said that Berkshire bought additional Apple stock in the first quarter. The company owned about 911 million shares of the iPhone maker at the end of March, versus 907.6 million at the end of 2021.</p><p>In February, Berkshire said that it owned about 14.7 million shares of Activision Blizzard (ATVI), which were acquired in October and November 2021. On Saturday, Buffett said that Berkshire now owns about 9.5% of Activision, or some 74 million shares—which were worth about $5.6 billion at Friday’s close. Microsoft (MSFT) has agreed to purchase the video-game developer for $95 per share, while shares have been trading in the high $70s and low $80s in recent months. Buffett expects the deal to go through—and for that gap to close.</p><h3><b>Berkshire isn’t buying back as much stock</b></h3><p>Berkshire spent $3.2 billion on share repurchases in the first quarter, down from $6.9 billion in the fourth quarter and $27 billion for all of 2021. Buffett and Munger repurchase shares when they determine that their price is below Berkshire’s intrinsic value.</p><p>Buffett nonetheless extolled the virtues of stock buybacks for shareholders, pointing out that Berkshire’s stake in American Express had grown to about 20%, from 11%, over the years—without Berkshire buying any additional stock.</p><p>“Imagine you owned a farm and had 640 acres, farmed it every year, made a little money on it, enjoyed farming, and somehow 20 years later it turned into 1,100 or 1,200 acres,” Buffett said. “If you do it at the right price, there’s nothing better than buying back part of your own business.”</p><h3><b>Buffett isn’t trying to predict future inflation</b></h3><p>“It’s extraordinary how much [inflation] we’ve seen,” Buffett said, referring to increasing prices at Nebraska Furniture Mart and other Berkshire subsidiaries.</p><p>Buffett believes that the best defense against inflation is to be skilled at what you do, and to produce a good or service that will remain in demand which people will be willing to pay for.</p><p>“The best protection against inflation is your own personal earning power…No one can take your talent away from you,” Buffett said. “If you do something valuable and good for society, it doesn’t matter what the U.S. dollar does.”</p><p>Buffett said that predicting future inflation is a fool’s game, and that no one can really know how much inflation there will be over the next 10 years, or 12 months, or four weeks. “Inflation swindles almost everybody,” Buffett said, whether they are a stock investor, a bond investor, or a “cash-under-the-mattress person.”</p><h3><b>Warren Buffett rips Wall Street for turning the stock market into ‘a gambling parlor’</b></h3><p>Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett lambasted Wall Street for encouraging speculative behavior in the stock market, effectively turning it into a “gambling parlor.”</p><p>Buffett, 91, spoke at length during his annual shareholder meeting Saturday about one of his favorite targets for criticism: investment banks and brokerages.</p><p>“Wall Street makes money, one way or another, catching the crumbs that fall off the table of capitalism,” Buffett said. “They don’t make money unless people do things, and they get a piece of them. They make a lot more money when people are gambling than when they are investing.”</p><h3><b>Corporations shouldn’t take political positions, Buffett believes</b></h3><p>The first question of the afternoon session had to do with companies engaging in the political realm—and whether they should take official stances on controversial issues.</p><p>“I don’t put my citizenship in a blind trust when I take the job as CEO of Berkshire,” Buffett said. “But I’ve also learned that you can make a whole lot more people sustainably mad, than temporarily happy, on a variety of subjects.”</p><p>People who get upset may take it out on Berkshire’s subsidiaries and employees, Buffett noted, which isn’t fair to those workers. “I’ve come to the conclusion that the answer is ‘No,'” Buffett said.</p><p>Berkshire stock has climbed about 7% so far this year, versus a 13% decline for the S&P 500.</p><h3><b>Buffett gives his most expansive explanation for why he doesn’t believe in bitcoin</b></h3><p>Bitcoin has steadily been gaining acceptance from the traditional finance and investment world in recent years but Warren Buffett is sticking to his skeptical stance onbitcoin.</p><p>He said at the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholder meeting Saturday that it’s not a productive asset and it doesn’t produce anything tangible. Despite a shift in public perception about the cryptocurrency, Buffett still wouldn’t buy it.</p><p>“Whether it goes up or down in the next year, or five or 10 years, I don’t know. But the one thing I’m pretty sure of is that it doesn’t produce anything,” Buffett said. “It’s got a magic to it and people have attached magics to lots of things.”</p><p></p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Berkshire Meeting: Talk About Investments, Inflation, Markets, and more</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\">\nBerkshire Meeting: Talk About Investments, Inflation, Markets, and more\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<a class=\"head\" href=\"https://laohu8.com/wemedia/1079075236\">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Tiger Newspress </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2022-05-01 09:56</p>\n</div>\n\n</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p>The Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholders meeting returned to a live, in-person format for 2022, after a two-year pandemic hiatus moved the so-called “Woodstock for Capitalists” online.

Warren Buffett addressed the company’s massive stock purchases in the first quarter, the performance of its collection of businesses, and added his signature folksy anecdotes and life advice.Tens of thousands of Buffett devoteeswere back in Omaha to hear fromthe legendary investorand Berkshire Hathaway (ticker: BRK.A, BRK.B) CEO, scoop up discounts at a shareholder-only shopping day, and swap stories of their experiences following Berkshire over the years.Warren Buffett says inflation \"swindles almost everybody\"Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett on Saturday put fresh money behind Activision and Chevron and doled out sharp criticism against speculation in the market.Speaking at Berkshire Hathaway's first in-person annual meeting since 2019, Buffett went so far as to say the market's turned into a \"gambling parlor.\"The Oracle of Omaha also commented on inflation, building on prior remarks he has made. Buffett had previously said that inflation \"swindles\" equity investors, but noted Saturday that it \"swindles the bond investor, too. It swindles the person who keeps their cash under their mattress. It swindles almost everybody.\"Berkshire’s first-quarter resultsBuffett proceeded with an overview of Berkshire’s first-quarter financial results, which were released on Saturday morning. Operating earnings after taxes rose less than 1% from the year-earlier period, to about $7 billion. The company reduced the pace of its stock buybacks, but Berkshire was active in purchasing other companies’ shares.Berkshire spent $3.2 billion on share repurchases in the first quarter, and bought $51.9 billion in other equities. The company also sold $10.3 billion worth of non-Berkshire shares. Berkshire ended the period with $102.7 billion in cash and U.S. Treasury bills.“We will always have a lot of cash on hand,” Buffett said.A question addressed the performance of Berkshire’s Geico and BNSF Railway subsidiaries relative to competitors. Buffett kicked it over to Jain, who oversees Berkshire’s insurance operations, and Abel, who oversees non-insurance operations.Jain admitted that lately Progressive (PGR) has done better than Geico in terms of its profit margin and growth rate. He attributed that to the Berkshire subsidiary’s later entry into telematics, or usage-based insurance, which adjusts customers’ rates based on how they drive. Progressive has years of additional data and experience in the business, but Jain said that Geico was seeing promising early results from its telematics policies, branded as DriveEasy.Abel defended the approach of BNSF, which hasn’t been able to embrace precision-scheduled railroading as much of the railroad industry has.Berkshire is buying other companies’ stocks againThe first question of the meeting was about Berkshire quickly becoming more active in the stock market. In Buffett’s 2021 annual shareholder letter, dated Feb. 26, he wrote that there were few attractive opportunities out there. Since then, Berkshire struck a deal to acquire insurer Alleghany (Y) for $11.6 billion, and scooped up billions of dollars of shares of Chevron, Occidental Petroleum, and HP.Asked what changed, Munger said: “We found some things we preferred owning to Treasury bills.” Buffett added, “As usual, Charlie has given the full answer, but I’ll still talk more and say less.”Buffett explained that Occidental’s capital-return plans and higher oil prices in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine made the stock a buy, and that Alleghany was a natural fit for Berkshire’s insurance operations.Buffett also said that Berkshire bought additional Apple stock in the first quarter. The company owned about 911 million shares of the iPhone maker at the end of March, versus 907.6 million at the end of 2021.In February, Berkshire said that it owned about 14.7 million shares of Activision Blizzard (ATVI), which were acquired in October and November 2021. On Saturday, Buffett said that Berkshire now owns about 9.5% of Activision, or some 74 million shares—which were worth about $5.6 billion at Friday’s close. Microsoft (MSFT) has agreed to purchase the video-game developer for $95 per share, while shares have been trading in the high $70s and low $80s in recent months. Buffett expects the deal to go through—and for that gap to close.Berkshire isn’t buying back as much stockBerkshire spent $3.2 billion on share repurchases in the first quarter, down from $6.9 billion in the fourth quarter and $27 billion for all of 2021. Buffett and Munger repurchase shares when they determine that their price is below Berkshire’s intrinsic value.Buffett nonetheless extolled the virtues of stock buybacks for shareholders, pointing out that Berkshire’s stake in American Express had grown to about 20%, from 11%, over the years—without Berkshire buying any additional stock.“Imagine you owned a farm and had 640 acres, farmed it every year, made a little money on it, enjoyed farming, and somehow 20 years later it turned into 1,100 or 1,200 acres,” Buffett said. “If you do it at the right price, there’s nothing better than buying back part of your own business.”Buffett isn’t trying to predict future inflation“It’s extraordinary how much [inflation] we’ve seen,” Buffett said, referring to increasing prices at Nebraska Furniture Mart and other Berkshire subsidiaries.Buffett believes that the best defense against inflation is to be skilled at what you do, and to produce a good or service that will remain in demand which people will be willing to pay for.“The best protection against inflation is your own personal earning power…No one can take your talent away from you,” Buffett said. “If you do something valuable and good for society, it doesn’t matter what the U.S. dollar does.”Buffett said that predicting future inflation is a fool’s game, and that no one can really know how much inflation there will be over the next 10 years, or 12 months, or four weeks. “Inflation swindles almost everybody,” Buffett said, whether they are a stock investor, a bond investor, or a “cash-under-the-mattress person.”Warren Buffett rips Wall Street for turning the stock market into ‘a gambling parlor’Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett lambasted Wall Street for encouraging speculative behavior in the stock market, effectively turning it into a “gambling parlor.”Buffett, 91, spoke at length during his annual shareholder meeting Saturday about one of his favorite targets for criticism: investment banks and brokerages.“Wall Street makes money, one way or another, catching the crumbs that fall off the table of capitalism,” Buffett said. “They don’t make money unless people do things, and they get a piece of them. They make a lot more money when people are gambling than when they are investing.”Corporations shouldn’t take political positions, Buffett believesThe first question of the afternoon session had to do with companies engaging in the political realm—and whether they should take official stances on controversial issues.“I don’t put my citizenship in a blind trust when I take the job as CEO of Berkshire,” Buffett said. “But I’ve also learned that you can make a whole lot more people sustainably mad, than temporarily happy, on a variety of subjects.”People who get upset may take it out on Berkshire’s subsidiaries and employees, Buffett noted, which isn’t fair to those workers. “I’ve come to the conclusion that the answer is ‘No,'” Buffett said.Berkshire stock has climbed about 7% so far this year, versus a 13% decline for the S&P 500.Buffett gives his most expansive explanation for why he doesn’t believe in bitcoinBitcoin has steadily been gaining acceptance from the traditional finance and investment world in recent years but Warren Buffett is sticking to his skeptical stance onbitcoin.He said at the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholder meeting Saturday that it’s not a productive asset and it doesn’t produce anything tangible.

If Nvidia still trades at those forward valuations at the end of fiscal 2024 and hits the estimates, it would have a market cap of about $730 billion.</p><p>However, those valuations would still be too rich for a company that's growing its revenue and earnings in the low teens. Therefore, I think Nvidia's market cap might stay between $500 billion and $700 billion over the next three years as it grapples with a cyclical slowdown in the GPU market.</p><h2>The near-term headwinds</h2><p>Investors should take analysts' estimates with a grain of salt, but Nvidia stock likely needs to take a breather after its big growth spurt over the past few years.</p><p>In <b>HP</b>'s (NYSE: HPQ) latest earnings report, it said its sales of consumer PCs fell 1% year-over-year as it faced tough comparisons to the boost it got from remote work and gaming upgrades during the pandemic. That slowdown doesn't bode well for Nvidia and other PC chipmakers.</p><p>Meanwhile, data center operators might buy fewer Nvidia GPUs for AI tasks as the usage of cloud-based services decelerates in a post-lockdown market. Waning interest in cryptocurrencies, many of which have lost value this year as investors have rotated out of riskier assets, will also curb sales of its gaming GPUs and dedicated mining chips.</p><p>To make matters worse, <b>Intel</b> (NASDAQ: INTC) plans to disrupt Nvidia and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">AMD</a></b>'s (NASDAQ: AMD) duopoly in discrete GPUs with its own chips. These new GPUs, which Intel is bundling with its own CPUs, could cause more headaches for Nvidia and AMD as the broader gaming market slows down.</p><h2>The long-term tailwinds</h2><p>Those challenges seem daunting, but Nvidia has weathered plenty of cyclical downturns and competitive threats since its public debut in 1999. It also remains the dominant discrete GPU maker with an 81% market share, according to JPR's fourth-quarter numbers, compared to AMD's 19% share.</p><p>The gaming and data center markets should also keep expanding over the next few years. The gaming PC market could expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.9% between 2021 and 2027, according to Report Ocean, while Research and Markets expects the data center accelerator market to grow at a CAGR of 36.7% between 2021 and 2026.</p><p>If Nvidia continues to dominate both of those growing markets, its cyclical slowdown could end a lot sooner than expected. Its oft-overlooked automotive chip business -- which generated just 2% of revenue in its latest quarter -- could also gain more traction as the automotive sector gradually recovers and develops new connected and autonomous vehicles.</p><h2>Look beyond Nvidia's market cap</h2><p>Nvidia probably won't become a trillion-dollar company by 2025, and investors who were spoiled by its 380% rally over the past three years might be a bit disappointed. However, it's arguably better for Nvidia's stock to cool off now and reset the market's expectations instead of flying off the rails with runaway valuations.</p><p>Nvidia's stock might generate much lower returns over the next three years, but investors shouldn't abandon the chipmaker yet. Long-term secular tailwinds could still propel its stock to new all-time highs.</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>Will Nvidia Be a Trillion-Dollar Stock by 2025?</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\">\nWill Nvidia Be a Trillion-Dollar Stock by 2025?\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-23 13:30 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/04/22/will-nvidia-be-a-trillion-dollar-stock-by-2025/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Nvidia's stock closed at an all-time high of $333.76 on Nov. 29, 2021, which gave the chipmaker a market cap of $834 billion.

Waning interest in cryptocurrencies, many of which have lost value this year as investors have rotated out of riskier assets, will also curb sales of its gaming GPUs and dedicated mining chips.To make matters worse, Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) plans to disrupt Nvidia and AMD's (NASDAQ: AMD) duopoly in discrete GPUs with its own chips. These new GPUs, which Intel is bundling with its own CPUs, could cause more headaches for Nvidia and AMD as the broader gaming market slows down.The long-term tailwindsThose challenges seem daunting, but Nvidia has weathered plenty of cyclical downturns and competitive threats since its public debut in 1999. It also remains the dominant discrete GPU maker with an 81% market share, according to JPR's fourth-quarter numbers, compared to AMD's 19% share.The gaming and data center markets should also keep expanding over the next few years. The gaming PC market could expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.9% between 2021 and 2027, according to Report Ocean, while Research and Markets expects the data center accelerator market to grow at a CAGR of 36.7% between 2021 and 2026.If Nvidia continues to dominate both of those growing markets, its cyclical slowdown could end a lot sooner than expected. Its oft-overlooked automotive chip business -- which generated just 2% of revenue in its latest quarter -- could also gain more traction as the automotive sector gradually recovers and develops new connected and autonomous vehicles.Look beyond Nvidia's market capNvidia probably won't become a trillion-dollar company by 2025, and investors who were spoiled by its 380% rally over the past three years might be a bit disappointed. However, it's arguably better for Nvidia's stock to cool off now and reset the market's expectations instead of flying off the rails with runaway valuations.Nvidia's stock might generate much lower returns over the next three years, but investors shouldn't abandon the chipmaker yet. Long-term secular tailwinds could still propel its stock to new all-time highs.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1044,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9085274618,"gmtCreate":1650720780535,"gmtModify":1676534782103,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581922885116926","idStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like","listText":"like","text":"like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9085274618","repostId":"2229678171","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1118,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9082227414,"gmtCreate":1650582401927,"gmtModify":1676534755351,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581922885116926","idStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9082227414","repostId":"2228292962","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2228292962","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1650555050,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2228292962?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2022-04-21 23:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Growth Stocks That Could 3x or More in 2022","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2228292962","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The three stocks have been beaten down, but Wall Street still sees tremendous upside ahead.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>It was a little over 13 years ago that the <b>S&P 500</b> hit a market low on March 6, 2009, after which it reversed course and went on a tear.

Her firm's flagship product, the <b>Ark Innovation <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PSFF\">Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETF</a></b>, has fallen more than 50% from its high. With inflation still running rampant, many investors are worried about the future of the economy. So they have sold out of many (formerly beloved) growth stocks, presumably in favor of less risky assets.</p><p>To her credit, Wood has not shied away from her convictions. Better yet, she has maintained her long-term mindset and doubled-down on her belief in innovation, saying that Ark's portfolio is currently in "deep value" territory. Of course, critics will point to her losses in the past year, but the narrative changes if you widen the lens. Since its inception in October 2014, the Ark Innovation ETF is up over 180%, easily beating the 123% return of the broader <b>S&P 500</b>.</p><p><b>Tesla</b> and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SQ\">Block</a></b> currently rank as Ark's first- and fourth-largest holdings, respectively, and the firm sees significant upside. Specifically, Ark says Tesla could hit $4,600 per share by 2026, implying 360% upside over the next four years. Likewise, Ark thinks Block will hit $375 per share by 2025, implying 215% upside over the next three years.</p><p>Given Wood's track record, let's take a closer look at both stocks.</p><h2>1. Tesla</h2><p>Last year, Tesla overcame semiconductor shortages and supply chain disruptions to once again top the auto industry in terms of electric car sales. It captured 14.4% market share, while Chinese automaker <b>BYD</b> ranked second with 9.1% market share. Better yet, Tesla posted an industry-leading operating margin of 14.6% in the third quarter, and that figure rose to 14.7% in the fourth quarter, reinforcing its burgeoning reputation for manufacturing efficiency.</p><p>Financially, Tesla delivered another solid performance in 2021. Revenue surged 71% to $53.8 billion and, thanks to improving efficiency, free cash flow skyrocketed 80% to $5 billion. But Tesla (and Cathie Wood) see this as the beginning of a longer story, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> in which the company leverages its software and semiconductor expertise to build self-driving cars.</p><p>During a recent earnings call, several Tesla executives noted their belief that full self-driving (FSD) software would eventually be the most important source of profitability for the company. Better yet, CEO Elon Musk said he expects to have FSD solved this year, at which point Tesla will launch an autonomous ride-hailing service. Ark thinks that service will account for more than one-third of revenue by 2026 and, thanks to its high-margin nature, more than half of EBITDA. Ark also believes production ramps and innovations like the 4680 battery cell will boost margins on the core electric vehicle business, driving cash flow higher.</p><p>Here's the bottom line: Ark believes Tesla will hit $4,600 per share in 2026, but the company also modeled out a bear scenario in which the stock hits $2,900 per share, and a bull scenario in which the stock hits $5,800 per share. Of course, it's easy to dismiss Wood's confidence as pure speculation, and you would be right to say that a lot of guesswork went into those numbers. Tesla is undoubtedly one of the most controversial stocks on the market for that very reason -- many intelligent people cannot fathom its current valuation, while others see the share price rocketing higher in the years ahead. For what it's worth, I have no plans to sell my stake in Tesla, though the $4,600 price target may seem outlandishly optimistic.</p><h2>2. Block</h2><p>Block has come a long way since releasing its first card reader. Today the fintech breaks its portfolio into two businesses: Square and Cash App. Through the Square ecosystem sellers can access all of the hardware, software, and services they need to manage a business across physical and digital channels. That disruptive approach differentiates Block from traditional merchant service providers, which typically burden sellers with contracts, fine-print fees, and bundles of disparate products that require significant IT support.</p><p>Similarly, the Cash App is designed to disrupt consumer finance. From a single platform, users can deposit, send, spend, and invest money, and they can even file their taxes for free. Better yet, while banks with physical presences pay about $2,500 to acquire each customer, Block pays about $10 to onboard new Cash App users. That means Block can afford to serve customers that traditional banks cannot, which should reinforce the network effects created by the peer-to-peer functionality of the Cash App.</p><p>Financially, Block delivered another solid financial performance last year. Gross profit surged 62% to $4.4 billion and free cash flow hit $714 million, up from $35 million in 2020. While the results were impressive across both ecosystems, the Cash App is catching fire.

Her firm's flagship product, the Ark Innovation Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETF, has fallen more than 50% from its high. With inflation still running rampant, many investors are worried about the future of the economy. So they have sold out of many (formerly beloved) growth stocks, presumably in favor of less risky assets.To her credit, Wood has not shied away from her convictions. Better yet, she has maintained her long-term mindset and doubled-down on her belief in innovation, saying that Ark's portfolio is currently in \"deep value\" territory. Of course, critics will point to her losses in the past year, but the narrative changes if you widen the lens. Since its inception in October 2014, the Ark Innovation ETF is up over 180%, easily beating the 123% return of the broader S&P 500.Tesla and Block currently rank as Ark's first- and fourth-largest holdings, respectively, and the firm sees significant upside. Specifically, Ark says Tesla could hit $4,600 per share by 2026, implying 360% upside over the next four years. Likewise, Ark thinks Block will hit $375 per share by 2025, implying 215% upside over the next three years.Given Wood's track record, let's take a closer look at both stocks.1. TeslaLast year, Tesla overcame semiconductor shortages and supply chain disruptions to once again top the auto industry in terms of electric car sales. It captured 14.4% market share, while Chinese automaker BYD ranked second with 9.1% market share. Better yet, Tesla posted an industry-leading operating margin of 14.6% in the third quarter, and that figure rose to 14.7% in the fourth quarter, reinforcing its burgeoning reputation for manufacturing efficiency.Financially, Tesla delivered another solid performance in 2021. Revenue surged 71% to $53.8 billion and, thanks to improving efficiency, free cash flow skyrocketed 80% to $5 billion. But Tesla (and Cathie Wood) see this as the beginning of a longer story, one in which the company leverages its software and semiconductor expertise to build self-driving cars.During a recent earnings call, several Tesla executives noted their belief that full self-driving (FSD) software would eventually be the most important source of profitability for the company. Better yet, CEO Elon Musk said he expects to have FSD solved this year, at which point Tesla will launch an autonomous ride-hailing service. Ark thinks that service will account for more than one-third of revenue by 2026 and, thanks to its high-margin nature, more than half of EBITDA. Ark also believes production ramps and innovations like the 4680 battery cell will boost margins on the core electric vehicle business, driving cash flow higher.Here's the bottom line: Ark believes Tesla will hit $4,600 per share in 2026, but the company also modeled out a bear scenario in which the stock hits $2,900 per share, and a bull scenario in which the stock hits $5,800 per share. Of course, it's easy to dismiss Wood's confidence as pure speculation, and you would be right to say that a lot of guesswork went into those numbers. Tesla is undoubtedly one of the most controversial stocks on the market for that very reason -- many intelligent people cannot fathom its current valuation, while others see the share price rocketing higher in the years ahead. For what it's worth, I have no plans to sell my stake in Tesla, though the $4,600 price target may seem outlandishly optimistic.2. BlockBlock has come a long way since releasing its first card reader. Today the fintech breaks its portfolio into two businesses: Square and Cash App. Through the Square ecosystem sellers can access all of the hardware, software, and services they need to manage a business across physical and digital channels. That disruptive approach differentiates Block from traditional merchant service providers, which typically burden sellers with contracts, fine-print fees, and bundles of disparate products that require significant IT support.Similarly, the Cash App is designed to disrupt consumer finance. From a single platform, users can deposit, send, spend, and invest money, and they can even file their taxes for free. Better yet, while banks with physical presences pay about $2,500 to acquire each customer, Block pays about $10 to onboard new Cash App users. That means Block can afford to serve customers that traditional banks cannot, which should reinforce the network effects created by the peer-to-peer functionality of the Cash App.Financially, Block delivered another solid financial performance last year. Gross profit surged 62% to $4.4 billion and free cash flow hit $714 million, up from $35 million in 2020. While the results were impressive across both ecosystems, the Cash App is catching fire. Monthly active users (MAUs) jumped 22% to 44 million, and thanks to increased adoption of products like the Cash Card, gross profit per MAU rose 13% in the fourth quarter.Looking ahead, Ark believes Cash App MAUs will hit 75 million by 2025, and that user monetization will continue to improve. Ark's price target is also predicated on the idea that Square ecosystem revenue will grow at 19% per year through 2025, which seems entirely plausible -- Square revenue jumped 47% last year.Here's the bottom line: Much like Ark's price target for Tesla, its valuation model for Block involves a lot of guesswork. While I certainly believe shareholders could see a 215% return over the next three years, Block looks like a solid long-term investment whether that happens or not.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1222,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9086909982,"gmtCreate":1650409187095,"gmtModify":1676534714658,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581922885116926","idStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9086909982","repostId":"1134362695","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1134362695","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1650382064,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1134362695?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2022-04-19 23:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba: 3 Reasons To Sell In May And Go Away","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1134362695","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryAlibaba is heading towards disastrous quarterly and end-of-year results in May.

Google "China Lockdown," and you'll find chilling videos of desperate Chinese citizens struggling with lockdowns. In this video, Shanghai residents are heard screaming from their balconies in protest of the lockdowns, and they don't seem in the mood for shopping on Alibaba. Instead, they appear more concerned about increasing prices, lack of income, depleting savings, food shortages, and inadequate food rations. The economic environment is not accommodative for Alibaba to meet Wall Street's 33% 2022 revenue growth expectations.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/59845a06664129959a3d7afc696f959b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"258\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Alibaba Revenue Estimates(Seeking Alpha)</p><p>Alibaba's macroeconomic challenges are the least of its troubles. One might argue that business cycles are temporary, similar to COVID policies, despite their short-term impact on this year's revenue. This would make a solid contrarian strategy, especially for those with a stomach to sit on losses for long periods of time, if it wasn't for the fundamental, long-term revenue disruption impacting Alibaba.</p><p>The China e-commerce "CEC" segment constitutes 70% of Alibaba's revenue. Annual active users now stand at 937 million against a total population of 1.4 billion, with 260 million below the age of 15, pointing to a saturated market. Last quarter, CEC grew 7%, a disappointing figure given it includes inorganic growth from the Sun Art acquisition, mirroring demographic challenges facing its core segment.</p><p>Management is trying to find growth in rural China. However, sales data from its competitor, Pinduoduo Inc. (PDD), which focuses on this market and posts 900 million annual active users, points to a weak purchasing power that is not enough to create meaningful growth.</p><p>The same goes for cloud computing and international markets, which, together with rural China expansion, represent the company's official growth strategy. The Cloud and International Segment represent 8% and 7% of total revenue. For these segments to compensate for a 10% decrease in core operations, both need to grow by 50% just for revenue to remain constant, still a hard-to-swallow proposition for a growth-hungry shareholder base.</p><p>I don't believe that those buying the dip had enough time to analyze and study the company's revenue trends and drivers. Alibaba's fall was abrupt, accelerated by a brutal anti-monopoly crackdown that permanently changed the IT competitive landscape in favor of smaller peers. While new investors are showing courage in buying the dip, management is terrified, as reflected in merchant subsidies, which dragged net income 74% last quarter in an unsustainable attempt to maintain revenue and users.</p><p>Cash Flow And Share Buybacks</p><p>Fundamentally, Alibaba's business model is sound, generating lucrative, scalable operating cash flows that encouraged the e-commerce giant to extend a share buyback program last month. Alibaba's challenges stem from its inability to manage investors' expectations. Historically, Alibaba attracted a growth-oriented shareholder base, and now that its core operations are maturing, management is finding it hard to communicate its transitionary state to shareholders. Investor presentations still market Alibaba as a growth company.</p><p>The problem is that many are falling for it. A few weeks ago, Kevin O'Leary was touting his new Alibaba position, citing the growth potential of Chinese tech. Munger and O'Leary are representative of this growth-hungry shareholder base.</p><p>How Loyal Is Softbank</p><p>SoftBank Group (OTCPK:SFTBY) owns about a third of Alibaba's share, rendering the Japanese financial giant its largest shareholder. Softbank is known for its risk-taking and support for emerging tech companies. However, its participation in early capital-raising cycles means the dollar-average price of its position is far less than ordinary investors. For example, in FQ4 2021, Softbank reported a $558 million gain on selling some Alibaba shares, despite the ticker's selloff.</p><p>Softbank is facing renewed capitalization issues. The Japanese lender might be forced to sell Alibaba stock, especially if shares tumble further after a potentially disappointing earnings release. One thing is for sure, and the current situation is testing Softbank's loyalty to Alibaba.</p><p>Summary</p><p>Alibaba is heading towards disastrous quarterly and end-of-year results in May. I can't imagine a scenario where Alibaba delivers on its shareholder's high growth expectations. The Chinese economy, where Alibaba generates most of its income, struggles with rising COVID cases and rigid lockdown rules. The timing couldn't be worse for Alibaba, currently toiling with new regulations that stripped it from its "competitive advantage." The core segment, i.e., China e-commerce, has reached maturity with 973 million users.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Alibaba: 3 Reasons To Sell In May And Go Away</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\">\nAlibaba: 3 Reasons To Sell In May And Go Away\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-19 23:27 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4502007-alibaba-3-reasons-to-sell-in-may-and-go-away><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryAlibaba is heading towards disastrous quarterly and end-of-year results in May.

Alibaba's fall was abrupt, accelerated by a brutal anti-monopoly crackdown that permanently changed the IT competitive landscape in favor of smaller peers. While new investors are showing courage in buying the dip, management is terrified, as reflected in merchant subsidies, which dragged net income 74% last quarter in an unsustainable attempt to maintain revenue and users.Cash Flow And Share BuybacksFundamentally, Alibaba's business model is sound, generating lucrative, scalable operating cash flows that encouraged the e-commerce giant to extend a share buyback program last month. Alibaba's challenges stem from its inability to manage investors' expectations. Historically, Alibaba attracted a growth-oriented shareholder base, and now that its core operations are maturing, management is finding it hard to communicate its transitionary state to shareholders. Investor presentations still market Alibaba as a growth company.The problem is that many are falling for it. A few weeks ago, Kevin O'Leary was touting his new Alibaba position, citing the growth potential of Chinese tech. Munger and O'Leary are representative of this growth-hungry shareholder base.How Loyal Is SoftbankSoftBank Group (OTCPK:SFTBY) owns about a third of Alibaba's share, rendering the Japanese financial giant its largest shareholder. Softbank is known for its risk-taking and support for emerging tech companies. However, its participation in early capital-raising cycles means the dollar-average price of its position is far less than ordinary investors. For example, in FQ4 2021, Softbank reported a $558 million gain on selling some Alibaba shares, despite the ticker's selloff.Softbank is facing renewed capitalization issues. The Japanese lender might be forced to sell Alibaba stock, especially if shares tumble further after a potentially disappointing earnings release. One thing is for sure, and the current situation is testing Softbank's loyalty to Alibaba.SummaryAlibaba is heading towards disastrous quarterly and end-of-year results in May. I can't imagine a scenario where Alibaba delivers on its shareholder's high growth expectations. The Chinese economy, where Alibaba generates most of its income, struggles with rising COVID cases and rigid lockdown rules. The timing couldn't be worse for Alibaba, currently toiling with new regulations that stripped it from its \"competitive advantage.\" The core segment, i.e., China e-commerce, has reached maturity with 973 million users.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1804,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9088364187,"gmtCreate":1650321445447,"gmtModify":1676534693082,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581922885116926","idStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"lie","listText":"lie","text":"lie","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9088364187","repostId":"2228495833","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2228495833","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1650295529,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2228495833?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2022-04-18 23:25","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Stocks to Avoid This Week","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2228495833","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These investments seem pretty vulnerable right now.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>My "three stocks to avoid" column hit a couple of speed bumps in recent weeks, after rolling earlier this year. Would I get back on track? The three names I figured were going to move lower for the week -- <b>MicroStrategy</b>, <b>Hooker Furnishings</b>, and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BLNK\">Blink Charging</a></b> -- finished down 1%, up 1%, and down 4%, respectively, averaging out to a 1.3% decline.</p><p>The <b>S&P 500</b> declined 2.1% for the week, so while I may have been correct about the stocks to avoid, the market fared worse; I lost. I've won in 18 of the past 26 weeks, but my recent skid continues.</p><p>This week, I see <b>Tesla</b>, <b>Sleep Number</b>, and <b>Lucid Group</b> as stocks you may want to consider steering clear of. Let's go over my near-term concerns.</p><h2>Tesla</h2><p>I happen to personally own two of the three stocks in this week's column, making this a bittersweet list. Tesla is a name I've owned for more than a year, but I think the next-generation automaker isn't at its best when CEO Elon Musk is distracted. He's distracted right now.</p><p>Tesla reports its first-quarter financials on Wednesday. Your guess is as good as mine if Musk chose April 20 (4/20, a common reference to cannabis) <i>intentionally</i> as the earnings date; mad wealth can make you juvenile. We already know that car deliveries for the quarter came in slightly below market expectations.</p><p>Demand remains strong for Tesla's entry-level cars, and high gasoline prices are only helping. However, the stock's lofty valuation -- at a time when supply-chain constraints are real and cost controls are hard to come by -- means this is a tricky time to own the country's fifth-most-valuable company by market cap.</p><h2>Sleep Number</h2><p>The other stock I own -- and it's also reporting fresh financials this week -- is Sleep Number. The company's product is unique in a world of cookie-cutter mattresses: It makes air-chambered mattresses with adjustable firmness settings. It even has a neat hook with the Sleep Number 360 smart bed it rolled out a couple of years ago, a high-tech air cloud that can adjust firmness settings and even elevation as it senses restlessness.</p><p>Sleep Number sales took off in the early months of the pandemic as homebound folks paid a premium for a good night's sleep. Sales have slowed lately, and the company's last quarter was a disaster. Revenue declined 13%, as the late arrival of semiconductor components delayed more than $125 million of net sales. Sleep Number claims sales would've been positive without the supply-chain hiccup, and even with the setback, revenue still climbed 18% for all of 2021.</p><p>Sleep Number reports its first-quarter results after Wednesday's market close. Analysts don't expect the data to be pretty; they're bracing for a 7% decline in revenue and an 86% plunge in earnings per share. (Investors might have expected the late arrival of parts in the previous quarter to help <i>boost</i> results this time around.)</p><p>It gets worse: Sleep Number has fallen short of Wall Street profit targets in two of the past three reports. Shares are cheap using most measuring sticks, and I'm a long-term bull on the stock. I just feel there's a lot for Sleep Number to prove with this week's report.</p><h2>Lucid Group</h2><p>If I'm going with Tesla on this list, I may as well double down on another electric-vehicle maker that's well behind Tesla on the growth trajectory. Come on down, Lucid Motors.</p><p>Its flagship model, Lucid Air, turned heads late last year when it was named <i>MotorTrend</i>'s Car of the Year. But will it be able to scale fast enough to justify Lucid's nearly $35 billion market value? Bulls will argue that growth is about to shift to a higher gear, but Lucid is still at least three years away from turning the corner to profitability. A lot can and will happen between now and then, especially as the more established automakers flood the market with electric versions of their more popular rides.</p><p>Right now Lucid Air has a starting price of $77,400, so it's aiming for a higher-end niche market. It also hasn't increased its starting price since announcing the cost of its base model six months ago, suggesting it may not have the pricing elasticity of other automakers that have bumped prices higher over that time. If Tesla offers a foggy outlook, investors will likely take a step back from other electric-car stocks.</p><p>It's going to be a bumpy road for some of these investments. If you're looking for safe stocks, you aren't likely to find them in Tesla, Sleep Number, and Lucid Group this week.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Stocks to Avoid This Week</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 to Avoid This Week\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-18 23:25 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/04/18/3-stocks-to-avoid-this-week/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>My \"three stocks to avoid\" column hit a couple of speed bumps in recent weeks, after rolling earlier this year.

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'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's digital economy, it'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'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.</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'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.</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'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'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.</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'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'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.</p><h2>"It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future"</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's an interesting exercise that relies on the past as a guide.

In fact, with as little as $100 (or less) you can buy a stake in some pretty incredible companies. Right now that amount will get you in the door at <b>Hormel Foods</b> and <b>McCormick</b>. These are great companies that you probably know very well already, but here's why you might want to own them.</p><h2>1. Hormel</h2><p>Hormel has a long history of producing protein. It still does this, but it has been shifting its focus away from commodity products and more toward branded offerings for which it can charge higher prices. Its portfolio includes names like SPAM, Skippy, Columbus, and Planters. But that's just a small sample of what it offers as it has leading name brands throughout the grocery store.</p><p>In addition, Hormel also produces pre-cooked meats for the food service industry. This business has actually been doing very well in the face of the labor shortages following the pandemic as buying pre-cooked meat means less need for employees.</p><p>Although recent dividend increases have been modest, thanks to the pandemic and inflation, dividends have grown at a healthy 14% annualized rate over the past decade and are expected to be $1.04 for 2022. That's a pace that should help you keep up with, and likely speed past, the negative impacts of inflation. And it's worth noting that Hormel is a Dividend King, further underscoring the company's long-term commitment to shareholders.</p><p>Right now, the company's costs are rising faster than it can pass price increases through to customers. But that's more of a near-term timing issue that should not worry investors greatly. Notably, the company has a strong balance sheet with a modest debt-to-equity ratio of 0.47. Yes, margins are likely to be under pressure for a bit, but Hormel should have little trouble muddling through the current headwinds while continuing to reward investors over the long term.</p><h2>2. McCormick</h2><p>McCormick is just on the edge of $100. Some days it's a bit over and some days it's a bit under. Either way, this is a food maker that is worth a very close look. It makes spices and flavorings, which would seem like a boring business.</p><p>Only it isn't. It sells spices in the grocery store, which is probably what you think of when you hear its name. However, it also sells spices to businesses. And it has been expanding its portfolio of flavorings in recent years through acquisitions like French's Mustard and Frank's Hot Sauce, among others. That has positioned it as an even bigger player in the niches on which it is focused.</p><p>McCormick has increased its dividend at an annual rate of 9% over the past decade. And unlike Hormel, McCormick's hikes really haven't slowed down, keeping a pretty consistent pace over the <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a>-, three-, five-, and 10-year periods. It has over two decades' worth of increases behind it, showing that dividends are very important to the company.</p><p>To be fair, McCormick's stock is rarely cheap. Indeed, the dividend yield is toward the low end of its historical range right now. That suggests you will be paying full price here even at $100. However, over the long term, given the dividend growth rate and business success the company has achieved historically, this is a name that should serve you well if you treat it as a buy and long-term hold. (For reference, Hormel's yield is toward the high side of its range, suggesting it is relatively cheap today.)</p><h2><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA.U\">Two</a> options for growth</h2><p>Hormel and McCormick may seem like boring food companies, but boring doesn't mean slow growth. And the rapid dividend growth they have achieved over time proves that out. If you are looking to add some new names to your portfolio with a growth flare to them, both are worth examining today.</p><p>Hormel is a better bet for those with a value bent, while McCormick is probably most appropriate for investors willing to pay full fare for great growth names. And, remember, a company can't keep raising its dividend at a rapid clip if it isn't doing something right along the way.</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>2 Growth Stocks You Can Buy Right Now With Less Than $100</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\">\n2 Growth Stocks You Can Buy Right Now With Less Than $100\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-09 11:02 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/04/08/2-growth-stocks-you-can-buy-right-now-with-less-th/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Many people believe you need huge sums of money to invest, but that's just not true.

In the first 15 minutes of trading as the benchmark slipped 0.2%, volume on S&P 500 Index was more than double the average for that time of day over the past 30 sessions.</p><p>Roughly $3.5 trillion of single-stock and index-level options were estimated to expire Friday, according to Goldman Sachs Group Inc. At the same time, more near-the-money options were expected to mature than at any time since 2019.</p><p>And once again, this triple witching is coinciding with a rebalancing of benchmark indexes including the S&P 500 -- a combination that tends to spark single-day volumes that rank among the highest of the year. According to an estimate from Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices, the rebalance in the index alone could spur $33 billion of stock trades.</p><p>Friday’s session landed just as the S&P 500 regained its footing with a three-day jump, buoyed by the Federal Reserve’s optimism the economy can withstand rate hikes and China’s promise to bolster its financial markets. But in the telling of derivatives pros, the recent rally was fueled by dealers covering short positions to balance exposures while demand for stock hedges was elevated.</p><p>Now as many contracts expire, the key question is whether investors will rebuild their holdings of protective puts amid growth concerns and the war in Ukraine -- or will they chase the market rebound with call contracts.</p><p>“I’ve never seen an environment where you’ve had so many potential overhangs in the market that can not be controlled,” said David Wagner, a portfolio manager at Aptus Capital Advisors. “We’ll see if people can see to redeploy their puts.”</p><p>The S&P 500 climbed almost 6% over previous three sessions in the best rally since 2020, as the likes of Marko Kolanovic at JPMorgan Chase & Co. urged investors to go all-in.</p><p>Exploding derivatives volume has been a fixture of the post-pandemic market -- whipsawing underlying stocks in both directions, again and again. To strategists including Charlie McElligott at Nomura Holdings, the recent advance in the S&P 500 was again amplified by the hedging activity of market-makers.</p><p>It’s a complicated process, but it works roughly like this: When a dealer sells a put option, it’s essentially taking a bet on the underlying asset to go up. To offset this unwanted directional risk, the market-maker typically sells some of the asset to maintain a neutral position. When the put options expire or get exercised, it will reverse those hedging moves -- potentially creating a tailwind for the asset.</p><p>Another factor involving dealers is their current “short gamma” or “short delta” position that requires them to go with prevailing market trends: Buy stocks when they go up and sell when they fall.</p><p>At the start of the week, their exposure on S&P 500 products sat at a level near the maximum “short gamma” relative to history, according to estimates by McElligott, a cross-asset strategist at Nomura.

In the first 15 minutes of trading as the benchmark slipped 0.2%, volume on S&P 500 Index was more than double the average for that time of day over the past 30 sessions.Roughly $3.5 trillion of single-stock and index-level options were estimated to expire Friday, according to Goldman Sachs Group Inc. At the same time, more near-the-money options were expected to mature than at any time since 2019.And once again, this triple witching is coinciding with a rebalancing of benchmark indexes including the S&P 500 -- a combination that tends to spark single-day volumes that rank among the highest of the year. According to an estimate from Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices, the rebalance in the index alone could spur $33 billion of stock trades.Friday’s session landed just as the S&P 500 regained its footing with a three-day jump, buoyed by the Federal Reserve’s optimism the economy can withstand rate hikes and China’s promise to bolster its financial markets. But in the telling of derivatives pros, the recent rally was fueled by dealers covering short positions to balance exposures while demand for stock hedges was elevated.Now as many contracts expire, the key question is whether investors will rebuild their holdings of protective puts amid growth concerns and the war in Ukraine -- or will they chase the market rebound with call contracts.“I’ve never seen an environment where you’ve had so many potential overhangs in the market that can not be controlled,” said David Wagner, a portfolio manager at Aptus Capital Advisors. “We’ll see if people can see to redeploy their puts.”The S&P 500 climbed almost 6% over previous three sessions in the best rally since 2020, as the likes of Marko Kolanovic at JPMorgan Chase & Co. urged investors to go all-in.Exploding derivatives volume has been a fixture of the post-pandemic market -- whipsawing underlying stocks in both directions, again and again. To strategists including Charlie McElligott at Nomura Holdings, the recent advance in the S&P 500 was again amplified by the hedging activity of market-makers.It’s a complicated process, but it works roughly like this: When a dealer sells a put option, it’s essentially taking a bet on the underlying asset to go up. To offset this unwanted directional risk, the market-maker typically sells some of the asset to maintain a neutral position. When the put options expire or get exercised, it will reverse those hedging moves -- potentially creating a tailwind for the asset.Another factor involving dealers is their current “short gamma” or “short delta” position that requires them to go with prevailing market trends: Buy stocks when they go up and sell when they fall.At the start of the week, their exposure on S&P 500 products sat at a level near the maximum “short gamma” relative to history, according to estimates by McElligott, a cross-asset strategist at Nomura. Three days later, that turned into “zero gamma.” Along the way, dealers were forced to buy back stocks and close their short positions.With market sentiment weak and institutional-fund exposure to equities near mutliyear lows, caution in the derivatives market is everywhere. The 20-day average of the Cboe put-call ratio for equities, for example, hovers near a two-year high.“We see a general trend of continued risk aversion among investors, and expectations that the stock market remains volatile,” said Steve Sears, president at Options Solutions. “There are so many major events that could change the market’s tempo that hedging and patient fortitude appears to be the message from the options market.”Options either far out of money or in the money receive less attention on Wall Street around expiration dates.

Apple's $2.8 billion valuation is dominant right now, but the class act of Cupertino probably won't be on top forever. Go out 13 years and it wouldn't be a surprise to see someone else in that spot. Who can it be?</p><p>I think <b>Amazon</b> (NASDAQ:AMZN), <b>Tesla Motors</b> (NASDAQ:TSLA), and <b>Shopify</b> (NYSE:SHOP) have fair shots to inherit the market cap crown from Apple. Let's see why each of these three already well-known companies can be the most valuable publicly traded company come 2035.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d9b0458194138e6515c5ea46da963058\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1333\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.</span></p><p><b>Amazon.com</b></p><p>If you're like me, you lean a lot on Amazon these days. There's e-commerce, local grocery deliveries, namesake consumer electronics, and a growing slate of digital content. With its widely adopted AWS cloud platform, you're probably doing business with Amazon even when you don't realize that you're doing business with Amazon.</p><p>Amazon's a beast. Net sales rose 22% to $469.8 billion. Apple clocked in with just $365.8 billion on the top line for its fiscal 2021. Naturally, Amazon currently operates a lower-margin business. Apple deserves the better multiple. However, Amazon has been the more consistent grower. Apple's growth comes in spurts. It comes through with a fiscal year of double-digit growth in net sales, only to march in place the next two years. Really. Look up the pattern over the past decade. Amazon has a more attractive pattern. It has posted double-digit annual growth in net sales for the last two decades.</p><p>Apple has done a great job of building a high-margin services component to its business on top of its innovative premium-priced products. Apple should continue to do well over time, but it's also easy to see how Amazon's consistent big steps could make it more valuable by 2035.</p><p><b>Tesla Motors</b></p><p>This pick will be polarizing. Tesla Motors is already the fifth-most-valuable stock by market cap, and there's no shortage of bears stumped by how every larger automaker by sales volume is trading for less. I'm not one of those bears, and not just because the legacy car builders often have debt-saddled balance sheets and problematic pension obligations.</p><p>Tesla<i>is</i>different. Everyone is hopping on the electric vehicle trend now, but it will be hard to duplicate the proprietary Supercharger network. It will be hard to catch up to the tech at Tesla, where recalls are usually just over-the-air software updates. Speaking of updates, does your car get better every couple of months like a Tesla?</p><p>Apple turned hardware into a gusher of high-margin services, and Tesla has done the same. Tesla owners can pay $12,000 -- or $199 a month -- for full self-driving features that Elon Musk claims will become a reality later this year. Tesla's growth has been stunning, but the big mistake that bears make is assuming that the earnings potential of every Tesla that rolls off the line is the same as that of its slow-moving rivals' cars.</p><p><b>Shopify</b></p><p>Let's go shopping for a third candidate to be king of the hill in 2035. Shopify is considerably smaller than Apple. It would have to appreciate 33-fold to catch up to the top dog. Shopify has also proven mortal lately, down 63% from last year's all-time high. You still don't want to bet against the fast-growing platform that is making e-commerce a reality for companies and entrepreneurs of all sizes.</p><p>Revenue rose 57% last year, including a 41% year-over-year top-line gain in the fourth-quarter results it posted this week. Guidance was a bit vague, leading investors to brace for slowing growth. However, Shopify's unique role is worth exploring.

It shouldn't surprise anyone if it's not on top 13 years from now.Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) is a beast, and nobody is going to topple it from the king of the market cap hill anytime soon. Apple's $2.8 billion valuation is dominant right now, but the class act of Cupertino probably won't be on top forever. Go out 13 years and it wouldn't be a surprise to see someone else in that spot. Who can it be?I think Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), Tesla Motors (NASDAQ:TSLA), and Shopify (NYSE:SHOP) have fair shots to inherit the market cap crown from Apple. Let's see why each of these three already well-known companies can be the most valuable publicly traded company come 2035.IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.Amazon.comIf you're like me, you lean a lot on Amazon these days. There's e-commerce, local grocery deliveries, namesake consumer electronics, and a growing slate of digital content. With its widely adopted AWS cloud platform, you're probably doing business with Amazon even when you don't realize that you're doing business with Amazon.Amazon's a beast. Net sales rose 22% to $469.8 billion. Apple clocked in with just $365.8 billion on the top line for its fiscal 2021. Naturally, Amazon currently operates a lower-margin business. Apple deserves the better multiple. However, Amazon has been the more consistent grower. Apple's growth comes in spurts. It comes through with a fiscal year of double-digit growth in net sales, only to march in place the next two years. Really. Look up the pattern over the past decade. Amazon has a more attractive pattern. It has posted double-digit annual growth in net sales for the last two decades.Apple has done a great job of building a high-margin services component to its business on top of its innovative premium-priced products. Apple should continue to do well over time, but it's also easy to see how Amazon's consistent big steps could make it more valuable by 2035.Tesla MotorsThis pick will be polarizing. Tesla Motors is already the fifth-most-valuable stock by market cap, and there's no shortage of bears stumped by how every larger automaker by sales volume is trading for less. I'm not one of those bears, and not just because the legacy car builders often have debt-saddled balance sheets and problematic pension obligations.Teslaisdifferent. Everyone is hopping on the electric vehicle trend now, but it will be hard to duplicate the proprietary Supercharger network. It will be hard to catch up to the tech at Tesla, where recalls are usually just over-the-air software updates. Speaking of updates, does your car get better every couple of months like a Tesla?Apple turned hardware into a gusher of high-margin services, and Tesla has done the same. Tesla owners can pay $12,000 -- or $199 a month -- for full self-driving features that Elon Musk claims will become a reality later this year. Tesla's growth has been stunning, but the big mistake that bears make is assuming that the earnings potential of every Tesla that rolls off the line is the same as that of its slow-moving rivals' cars.ShopifyLet's go shopping for a third candidate to be king of the hill in 2035. Shopify is considerably smaller than Apple. It would have to appreciate 33-fold to catch up to the top dog. Shopify has also proven mortal lately, down 63% from last year's all-time high. You still don't want to bet against the fast-growing platform that is making e-commerce a reality for companies and entrepreneurs of all sizes.Revenue rose 57% last year, including a 41% year-over-year top-line gain in the fourth-quarter results it posted this week. Guidance was a bit vague, leading investors to brace for slowing growth. However, Shopify's unique role is worth exploring. One can argue that Amazon also helps folks sell online through its giant marketplace, but Shopify provides professional stand-alone digital storefronts. Shopify also offers seamless integration into the growing number of channels to sell a product, unlike Amazon, which wants the business to go through its namesake destination.The gig economy will continue to expand in the coming years, and Shopify will arm the creative and enterprising with instant online stores. Shopify's stock may be out of favor right now, but it has a long runway to keep thriving as a growth stock for a long time.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":466,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9006428329,"gmtCreate":1641824171491,"gmtModify":1676533651027,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581922885116926","authorIdStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like","listText":"like","text":"like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9006428329","repostId":"1102225765","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102225765","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1641824060,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1102225765?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2022-01-10 22:14","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Some Wall Street banks see four U.S. interest rate hikes this year","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102225765","media":"Reuters","summary":"(Reuters) -Goldman Sachs expects the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates four times this year an","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>(Reuters) -Goldman Sachs expects the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates four times this year and begin the process of reducing its balance sheet size as soon as July, joining other big banks in forecasting an aggressive tightening of U.S. monetary policy.</p><p>The Wall Street bank earlier predicted the Fed would raise rates in March, June and September, but now expects another hike in December.</p><p>Goldman Sachs' predicted rate is only modestly above market expectations for 2022, "but the gap grows significantly in subsequent years," chief economist Jan Hatzius wrote in a note published on Sunday.</p><p>Fed officials said last month the U.S. labor market was "very tight" and might need the central bank to raise rates sooner than expected but also reduce its overall asset holdings to tame high inflation, minutes from its December meeting showed last week, driving traders to price in a roughly 80% chance of a rate hike in March.</p><p>J.P.Morgan on Friday brought forward its forecast for the first rate hike since the pandemic began to March from June, and sees hikes every quarter this year.</p><p>"We believe Fed officials are coming to the same conclusion that the labor market is very tight, making it a tough sell to hold off on the first hike until June, our prior call," the bank's U.S. chief economist Michael Feroli wrote in a note.</p><p>Deutsche Bank also said on Friday it expects a total of four Fed rate hikes this year after December jobs data, while falling short of market expectations, showed more progress towards maximum employment.

The CEO, co-founder, and ace stock picker for the Ark Invest family of exchange-traded funds (<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PSFF\">Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETF</a>s) stood pat on her buying urges. She lightened a few positions last week, but she failed to execute a buy order in any of the final three trading days of last week.</p><p>The streak ended on Monday. <b>Shopify</b>, <b>Twilio</b>, and <b>Adaptive Biotechnologies</b> are the three stocks that Ark Invest bought. What does Wood see in these three fast-growing companies? Let's take a closer look.</p><h2>Shopify</h2><p>It's been a rough few months for Shopify investors. The fast-growing e-commerce specialist has seen its stock plunge more than 60% since peaking in November. Shopify stock came back to life with last week's market rally in growth stocks, but a 12% slide on Monday to kick off this new trading week shows that shareholders are still looking to take profits following sharp upticks.</p><p>Revenue growth is slowing at Shopify. Its top line surged 86% in 2020, slowing to a 57% pace in 2021. Growth has decelerated sharply the last three quarters. Shopify itself was vague about its guidance, but analysts are holding out for a 31% increase in 2022. Shopify continues to stand out for its ability to arm merchants of all sizes with the tools to establish an online presence that plays nice with most popular e-commerce and social media platforms.</p><h2>Twilio</h2><p>There is a lot to like about Twilio, the undisputed leader of in-app communication solutions. Twilio's cloud-based tools help many of the most popular apps be more effective by providing two-way communication with users -- for everything from service notifications to verification -- without having to leave an app.</p><p>It's growing briskly. Revenue rose 61% in 2021, including a 54% year-over-year uptick for its latest quarter. Acquisitions have helped pad Twilio's growth over the years. Organic revenue rose a more modest 44% clip last year if you back out the bump in political election season revenue from late 2020, but the appeal of the platform remains strong. Retention rates are still healthy, and Twilio continues to successfully expand its offerings.</p><h2>Adaptive Biotechnologies</h2><p>It's been a rough year for Adaptive Biotechnologies. Its CFO resigned in January, and earlier this month the biotech upstart announced that it would be laying off 12% of its staff.

The CEO, co-founder, and ace stock picker for the Ark Invest family of exchange-traded funds (Pacer Swan SOS Fund of Funds ETF|ETFs) stood pat on her buying urges. She lightened a few positions last week, but she failed to execute a buy order in any of the final three trading days of last week.The streak ended on Monday. Shopify, Twilio, and Adaptive Biotechnologies are the three stocks that Ark Invest bought. What does Wood see in these three fast-growing companies? Let's take a closer look.ShopifyIt's been a rough few months for Shopify investors. The fast-growing e-commerce specialist has seen its stock plunge more than 60% since peaking in November. Shopify stock came back to life with last week's market rally in growth stocks, but a 12% slide on Monday to kick off this new trading week shows that shareholders are still looking to take profits following sharp upticks.Revenue growth is slowing at Shopify. Its top line surged 86% in 2020, slowing to a 57% pace in 2021. Growth has decelerated sharply the last three quarters. Shopify itself was vague about its guidance, but analysts are holding out for a 31% increase in 2022. Shopify continues to stand out for its ability to arm merchants of all sizes with the tools to establish an online presence that plays nice with most popular e-commerce and social media platforms.TwilioThere is a lot to like about Twilio, the undisputed leader of in-app communication solutions. Twilio's cloud-based tools help many of the most popular apps be more effective by providing two-way communication with users -- for everything from service notifications to verification -- without having to leave an app.It's growing briskly. Revenue rose 61% in 2021, including a 54% year-over-year uptick for its latest quarter. Acquisitions have helped pad Twilio's growth over the years. Organic revenue rose a more modest 44% clip last year if you back out the bump in political election season revenue from late 2020, but the appeal of the platform remains strong. Retention rates are still healthy, and Twilio continues to successfully expand its offerings.Adaptive BiotechnologiesIt's been a rough year for Adaptive Biotechnologies. Its CFO resigned in January, and earlier this month the biotech upstart announced that it would be laying off 12% of its staff. The reorganization is part of Adaptive narrowing the focus of its immune system genetic sequencing technology to key in on minimal residual disease and immune medicine.The stock has been cut by more than half so far in 2022, and it's down 82% since peaking 14 months ago. The technology is promising, and Adaptive Biotechnologies is one of the stocks that Wood was buying earlier last week before she took a three-day break from purchases. Analysts don't see the company turning a profit for several more years, but that's not necessarily a deal breaker for biotech stocks as long as they have the liquidity in place to hold out for a medical breakthrough.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":335,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9093390058,"gmtCreate":1643510341687,"gmtModify":1676533827164,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581922885116926","authorIdStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":10,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9093390058","repostId":"1157223555","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1157223555","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1643443466,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1157223555?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2022-01-29 16:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Goldman Sachs Predicts Fed Will Raise Rates Five Times This Year","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1157223555","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s economists joined Wall Street peers in forecasting the Federal Reserve wi","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s economists joined Wall Street peers in forecasting the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates more aggressively than they previously expected.</p><p>Economists led by Jan Hatzius now predict the Fed will lift its near zero benchmark by 25 basis points five times this year rather than on four occasions.

DOCU guided for the next quarter to see up to $550 million in subscription revenue, representing only 34% year over year growth and only 4% sequential growth. Considering that DOCU was trading near 30x sales prior to the crash, it is not surprising that the stock fell after this projected growth rate, as it would be unusual for a stock to trade at 30x sales with 30% projected growth.</p>\n<p><b>Is DOCU Stock Undervalued?</b></p>\n<p>After the fall, Wall Street analysts rushed to cut their target prices. Yet in spite of the price cuts, DOCU remains undervalued relative to the average price target of $209 per share.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b810bbedbc6a5d0f0aa717eec1868424\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"427\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p><b>Is DOCU Stock Expected To Rise Again?</b></p>\n<p>While DOCU lost a lot of its bullish support, analysts in general remain bullish with an average rating of 3.9 out of 5.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b63d70c3ec760fcfefd1ab5cdceba46a\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"323\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p>Sure, the optimism has waned, but the stock price appears to have priced in the more humble outlook.</p>\n<p><b>What is DocuSign Stock's Outlook?</b></p>\n<p>Looking forward, analysts expect growth to decelerate to 25% next year before hovering around 20% for the rest of the decade.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6ede17439e6d2853a50785552055c37f\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"573\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p>\n<p>That kind of growth rate looks reasonable considering the inevitable thesis of e-signatures.

Are these multiples reasonable? It is important to remember that DOCU is the leader in the e-signature market, which has a $50 billion estimated total addressable market.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea622c36ad1eae675906fc47715f73cd\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"618\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Investor Presentation</span></p>\n<p>DOCU has penetrated around 4% of that market, suggesting much more room to grow. In discussing valuation, we must also note that DOCU has historically generated strong profitability, with non-GAAP operating margin at 22% and free cash flow margin at 17% as of the latest quarter.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aeb2151de6ee44444a1b6d562c70016e\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"558\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Investor Presentation</span></p>\n<p>Sure, these metrics exclude stock-based compensation, which might not impact cash flow but does dilute shareholders. At the same time, strong non-GAAP profitability may be an indication of strong GAAP profitability in the future. For this reason, the stock deserves to trade at some premium to peers of similar growth rates. I typically would want to see a valuation of around 10x price to sales for a company growing at a 25% clip, but DOCU has earned the premium due to the strong net retention rate, solid profitability, and easy to understand growth story.</p>\n<p>If I assume long term net margins of 40%, then the stock is currently trading at a 0.5x price to earnings growth ratio (‘PEG’) based on 2030 estimates. I view a 2x PEG ratio to be more appropriate due to the lower risk story. That suggests 4x upside over the next nine years, for an annualized return of 16%. Incidentally, this would leave DOCU trading at 38x earnings in 2030, which appears reasonable for the projected growth rate.</p>\n<p>Risks to the thesis include competition, as I admit that it is not obviously clear how important price competition is in the e-signature market.

While DOCU benefits from an easy to understand story, strong net retention rates, and solid free cash flow generation, the stock was trading far too richly heading into the latest earnings, and was subsequently punished. The pullback has made the stock much more attractive, and I see upside assuming the stock can once again be rewarded for its lower risk profile in the tech sector. I rate shares a buy with 23% upside over the next 12 months.\nDocuSign Stock Price\nDOCU joined the ranks of many pandemic winners in becoming post-pandemic losers. The stock collapsed after its latest earnings call.\n\nThe stock is now trading at the same levels it did 1.5 years ago, in spite of strong growth during that time.\nWhy Did DocuSign Stock Drop?\nAs just stated, DOCU dropped after the latest earnings release. Growth was solid with subscription revenues growing 44%.\nInvestor Presentation\nMuch of that growth was driven by the strong 121% net dollar retention rate.\nInvestor Presentation\nThese aren’t bad results, even at the prices just before the crash.\nThe problem was instead the guidance. DOCU guided for the next quarter to see up to $550 million in subscription revenue, representing only 34% year over year growth and only 4% sequential growth. Considering that DOCU was trading near 30x sales prior to the crash, it is not surprising that the stock fell after this projected growth rate, as it would be unusual for a stock to trade at 30x sales with 30% projected growth.\nIs DOCU Stock Undervalued?\nAfter the fall, Wall Street analysts rushed to cut their target prices. Yet in spite of the price cuts, DOCU remains undervalued relative to the average price target of $209 per share.\nSeeking Alpha\nIs DOCU Stock Expected To Rise Again?\nWhile DOCU lost a lot of its bullish support, analysts in general remain bullish with an average rating of 3.9 out of 5.\nSeeking Alpha\nSure, the optimism has waned, but the stock price appears to have priced in the more humble outlook.\nWhat is DocuSign Stock's Outlook?\nLooking forward, analysts expect growth to decelerate to 25% next year before hovering around 20% for the rest of the decade.\nSeeking Alpha\nThat kind of growth rate looks reasonable considering the inevitable thesis of e-signatures. Analysts expect DOCU to achieve a 30% net margin in a decade, as operating leverage takes hold.\nSeeking Alpha\nIs DOCU Stock A Buy, Sell, or Hold?\nAt current prices, DOCU trades at 79x earnings and 15x sales. Are these multiples reasonable? It is important to remember that DOCU is the leader in the e-signature market, which has a $50 billion estimated total addressable market.\nInvestor Presentation\nDOCU has penetrated around 4% of that market, suggesting much more room to grow. In discussing valuation, we must also note that DOCU has historically generated strong profitability, with non-GAAP operating margin at 22% and free cash flow margin at 17% as of the latest quarter.\nInvestor Presentation\nSure, these metrics exclude stock-based compensation, which might not impact cash flow but does dilute shareholders. At the same time, strong non-GAAP profitability may be an indication of strong GAAP profitability in the future. For this reason, the stock deserves to trade at some premium to peers of similar growth rates. I typically would want to see a valuation of around 10x price to sales for a company growing at a 25% clip, but DOCU has earned the premium due to the strong net retention rate, solid profitability, and easy to understand growth story.\nIf I assume long term net margins of 40%, then the stock is currently trading at a 0.5x price to earnings growth ratio (‘PEG’) based on 2030 estimates. I view a 2x PEG ratio to be more appropriate due to the lower risk story. That suggests 4x upside over the next nine years, for an annualized return of 16%. Incidentally, this would leave DOCU trading at 38x earnings in 2030, which appears reasonable for the projected growth rate.\nRisks to the thesis include competition, as I admit that it is not obviously clear how important price competition is in the e-signature market. Perhaps DOCU can achieve benefits from the network effect, similar to that seen as PayPal (PYPL) or Shopify (SHOP), but my personal experience with DOCU (as a signer) has not shown this to be the case.\nDOCU’s strong profit margins should enable it to invest more aggressively than competitors, but investors should watch out for deterioration in the net retention rate. While DOCU might not offer as much upside as alternatives in the sector, the lower risk profile makes it an attractive risk-reward proposition in its own right. I rate shares a buy with 23% upside to a 1.5x PEG ratio.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":272,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":804992782,"gmtCreate":1627914926646,"gmtModify":1703497843948,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581922885116926","authorIdStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like thanks ","listText":"Like thanks ","text":"Like thanks","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/804992782","repostId":"1183793139","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":270,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3571959390768435","authorId":"3571959390768435","name":"stormlee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/80629ef9648273c0d6465aee66dbd98a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3571959390768435","authorIdStr":"3571959390768435"},"content":"Comment & like pls","text":"Comment & like pls","html":"Comment & like pls"}],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":174797682,"gmtCreate":1627137052546,"gmtModify":1703484700337,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581922885116926","authorIdStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like n comment ","listText":"Like n comment ","text":"Like n comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/174797682","repostId":"1109439356","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":156,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":154829376,"gmtCreate":1625499586095,"gmtModify":1703742755213,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581922885116926","authorIdStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like and comment ","listText":"Like and comment ","text":"Like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":10,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/154829376","repostId":"1109703914","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":244,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9014199144,"gmtCreate":1649630838029,"gmtModify":1676534538533,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581922885116926","authorIdStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9014199144","repostId":"2225524274","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":588,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9094911431,"gmtCreate":1645050450496,"gmtModify":1676533989952,"author":{"id":"3581922885116926","authorId":"3581922885116926","name":"audreyhutah","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581922885116926","authorIdStr":"3581922885116926"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"like","listText":"like","text":"like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9094911431","repostId":"2211058650","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2211058650","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1645025220,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2211058650?lang=&edition=full_marsco","pubTime":"2022-02-16 23:27","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Metaverse Stocks With 195% to 383% Upside, According to Wall Street","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2211058650","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Select analysts and investment banks believe these metaverse plays could skyrocket over the next year.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>There's no shortage of sustained double-digit growth opportunities over the next decade. Cybersecurity, cloud computing, and telehealth are all examples of fast-growing trends that investors can't seem to get enough of.</p><p>But if there's <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> opportunity that's set head and shoulders above the rest, it's the metaverse.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d2dfd1def13e040be56bf2e78fca1456\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><p>In simple terms, the metaverse is the next iteration of the internet. It describes a 3D virtual environment that'll allow users to interact with their surroundings, including other users. Not only is there a gaming/entertainment aspect to the metaverse, but this collective of virtual worlds is expected to breed an entirely new ecosystem.</p><p>Making the metaverse tick is a big job, and it's going to take a large number of companies and innovators. There'll need to be enough processing capacity, storage capacity, reduced latency for users within virtual worlds, digital identity verification/security, and payment platforms in place, just to name a few of the critical functions necessary for the metaverse to succeed.</p><p>Yet, if all goes as planned, the metaverse could be the biggest investing opportunity since the birth of the internet. Matthew Ball, the CEO of venture capital company Epyllion, has estimated the metaverse market value at $10 trillion to $30 trillion within the next 10 to 15 years. Meanwhile, <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSTLW\">Morgan Stanley</a></b> believes the metaverse can eventually be worth $8 billion <i>just in China</i>!</p><p>Although the metaverse remains a work in progress, select Wall Street analysts and investment banks see three metaverse-associated stocks skyrocketing between 195% and 383% over the coming 12 months.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/362010ebd2994f37f72f2e851d36ffdf\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Coinbase Global: Implied upside of 208%</h2><p>The first metaverse stock with exceptional upside potential over the next year is the leading cryptocurrency exchange and ecosystem <b>Coinbase Global</b> (NASDAQ:COIN). Analyst Lisa Ellis of MoffettNathanson currently has the highest price target on Coinbase at $600. If it were to trade for this figure, investors would more than triple their money, based on where shares closed this past weekend.</p><p>Coinbase would be a pretty obvious beneficiary of the metaverse, given that protocol tokens from blockchain-based games have proved essential to early iterations of a decentralized metaverse. With Coinbase leading the way among crypto investments and transactions, it could become the de facto stop for digital currency purchases needed within virtual worlds or ecosystems.</p><p>But Coinbase sees its future in the metaverse going well beyond its cryptocurrency exchange. In December, the company released a note implying that its role will be to create "an identity on-ramp into the metaverse." Coinbase believes there'll be numerous metaverses linked together, and that having a secure identity tag, stored as a non-fungible token (NFT), will allow users easy access from one metaverse to the next. In addition to focusing on NFT identity tags, the company notes that it's working on technology that'll allow users to purchase their own avatar.</p><p>However, investors should understand that Coinbase is far from a lock to succeed. Though it's been raking in the dough from increased crypto transactions over the past 13-plus months, competition among crypto exchanges is heating up. We've watched this same fee-based price war play out with traditional brokerages, and it ended with trading commissions eventually going to zero.</p><p>Coinbase is also highly dependent on the success of <b>Bitcoin</b> and <b>Ethereum</b>, which make up the bulk of trading volume on its platform. Any weakness from the "Big <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA.U\">Two</a>" can quickly reduce sales and profits. With the metaverse many years away from being a big growth driver for Coinbase, it's more likely these concerns will limit this stock's upside.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7960c184f17f87ac008bfb80a04e9595\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Matterport: Implied upside of 383%</h2><p>If you want something a bit more under the radar, borderline small-cap stock <b>Matterport</b> (NASDAQ:MTTR) has the potential to nearly quintuple, at least according to one analyst. Daniel Ives at Wedbush Securities has an aggressive $38 price target on shares of Matterport, which equates to upside of 383%, based on where it closed last week.</p><p>Of the three stocks on this list, Matterport has the most direct ties to the metaverse. This is a company that takes physical objects in the real world and creates 3D digital twins of them in the virtual world. The applications for this technology are immediate. For instance, real estate companies are using this technology to allow prospective buyers to get a real feel for properties on the market.</p><p>But as you can imagine, there's plenty of use for Matterport's spatial data technology in the metaverse. Imagine being able to take your home, or perhaps the home you've always dreamed about, and place it on your own plot of land in the virtual world. Though we're likely a ways away from that happening, investors are already buying into Matterport specifically for the intrigue surrounding its metaverse ties.</p><p>For the time being, Matterport's growth is primarily derived from cloud-based subscriptions. While users do have the option of accessing their digital twins for free, a paid subscription is required so that others can access these virtual twins. As of the end of the third quarter, Matterport's annual recurring revenue (what it expects to generate annually from subscription revenue) was $62.7 million.</p><p>The catch with Matterport is that it's going to require patience. Profitability isn't expected anytime soon, and the company is still valued at close to 13 times Wall Street's forecast sales for 2022.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/16ca48e46c5ed915bdfaeb115d44e553\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"467\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Sea Limited: Implied upside of 195%</h2><p>A final metaverse stock with plenty of upside, according to Wall Street, is Singapore-based <b>Sea Limited</b> (NYSE:SE). The high-water price target on Wall Street of $467 comes from analyst Nirgunan Tiruchelvam at Tellimer Research. Should Sea make waves and hit this lofty prognostication, shareholders would enjoy gains of 195%!</p><p>Sea's ties to the metaverse are fairly fresh, with the company responsible for raising about $6.3 million for artificial intelligence-based gaming company Refract. Interestingly, the funding that Sea helped anchor allowed Refract to complete an acquisition of its own (game developer Deep Dive Studios).</p><p>It should be noted that Sea already has a wildly successful gaming unit, known as Garena. The company's mobile game, <i>Free Fire</i>, is a global hit. During the September-ended quarter, 729 million people were actively gaming on its platform, with 12.8% of those users paying to play. It's worth pointing out that the industry's pay-to-play conversion ratio is often closer to just 2%.</p><p>Beyond gaming, Sea Limited is building up its digital financial services segment, known as SeaMoney. When the third quarter closed, more than 39 million people were paying for digital wallet services.

Cybersecurity, cloud computing, and telehealth are all examples of fast-growing trends that investors can't seem to get enough of.But if there's one opportunity that's set head and shoulders above the rest, it's the metaverse.Image source: Getty Images.In simple terms, the metaverse is the next iteration of the internet. It describes a 3D virtual environment that'll allow users to interact with their surroundings, including other users. Not only is there a gaming/entertainment aspect to the metaverse, but this collective of virtual worlds is expected to breed an entirely new ecosystem.Making the metaverse tick is a big job, and it's going to take a large number of companies and innovators. There'll need to be enough processing capacity, storage capacity, reduced latency for users within virtual worlds, digital identity verification/security, and payment platforms in place, just to name a few of the critical functions necessary for the metaverse to succeed.Yet, if all goes as planned, the metaverse could be the biggest investing opportunity since the birth of the internet. Matthew Ball, the CEO of venture capital company Epyllion, has estimated the metaverse market value at $10 trillion to $30 trillion within the next 10 to 15 years. Meanwhile, Morgan Stanley believes the metaverse can eventually be worth $8 billion just in China!Although the metaverse remains a work in progress, select Wall Street analysts and investment banks see three metaverse-associated stocks skyrocketing between 195% and 383% over the coming 12 months.Image source: Getty Images.Coinbase Global: Implied upside of 208%The first metaverse stock with exceptional upside potential over the next year is the leading cryptocurrency exchange and ecosystem Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:COIN). Analyst Lisa Ellis of MoffettNathanson currently has the highest price target on Coinbase at $600. If it were to trade for this figure, investors would more than triple their money, based on where shares closed this past weekend.Coinbase would be a pretty obvious beneficiary of the metaverse, given that protocol tokens from blockchain-based games have proved essential to early iterations of a decentralized metaverse. With Coinbase leading the way among crypto investments and transactions, it could become the de facto stop for digital currency purchases needed within virtual worlds or ecosystems.But Coinbase sees its future in the metaverse going well beyond its cryptocurrency exchange. In December, the company released a note implying that its role will be to create \"an identity on-ramp into the metaverse.\" Coinbase believes there'll be numerous metaverses linked together, and that having a secure identity tag, stored as a non-fungible token (NFT), will allow users easy access from one metaverse to the next. In addition to focusing on NFT identity tags, the company notes that it's working on technology that'll allow users to purchase their own avatar.However, investors should understand that Coinbase is far from a lock to succeed. Though it's been raking in the dough from increased crypto transactions over the past 13-plus months, competition among crypto exchanges is heating up. We've watched this same fee-based price war play out with traditional brokerages, and it ended with trading commissions eventually going to zero.Coinbase is also highly dependent on the success of Bitcoin and Ethereum, which make up the bulk of trading volume on its platform. Any weakness from the \"Big Two\" can quickly reduce sales and profits. With the metaverse many years away from being a big growth driver for Coinbase, it's more likely these concerns will limit this stock's upside.Image source: Getty Images.Matterport: Implied upside of 383%If you want something a bit more under the radar, borderline small-cap stock Matterport (NASDAQ:MTTR) has the potential to nearly quintuple, at least according to one analyst. Daniel Ives at Wedbush Securities has an aggressive $38 price target on shares of Matterport, which equates to upside of 383%, based on where it closed last week.Of the three stocks on this list, Matterport has the most direct ties to the metaverse. This is a company that takes physical objects in the real world and creates 3D digital twins of them in the virtual world. The applications for this technology are immediate. For instance, real estate companies are using this technology to allow prospective buyers to get a real feel for properties on the market.But as you can imagine, there's plenty of use for Matterport's spatial data technology in the metaverse. Imagine being able to take your home, or perhaps the home you've always dreamed about, and place it on your own plot of land in the virtual world. Though we're likely a ways away from that happening, investors are already buying into Matterport specifically for the intrigue surrounding its metaverse ties.For the time being, Matterport's growth is primarily derived from cloud-based subscriptions. While users do have the option of accessing their digital twins for free, a paid subscription is required so that others can access these virtual twins. As of the end of the third quarter, Matterport's annual recurring revenue (what it expects to generate annually from subscription revenue) was $62.7 million.The catch with Matterport is that it's going to require patience. Profitability isn't expected anytime soon, and the company is still valued at close to 13 times Wall Street's forecast sales for 2022.Image source: Getty Images.Sea Limited: Implied upside of 195%A final metaverse stock with plenty of upside, according to Wall Street, is Singapore-based Sea Limited (NYSE:SE). The high-water price target on Wall Street of $467 comes from analyst Nirgunan Tiruchelvam at Tellimer Research. Should Sea make waves and hit this lofty prognostication, shareholders would enjoy gains of 195%!Sea's ties to the metaverse are fairly fresh, with the company responsible for raising about $6.3 million for artificial intelligence-based gaming company Refract. Interestingly, the funding that Sea helped anchor allowed Refract to complete an acquisition of its own (game developer Deep Dive Studios).It should be noted that Sea already has a wildly successful gaming unit, known as Garena. The company's mobile game, Free Fire, is a global hit. During the September-ended quarter, 729 million people were actively gaming on its platform, with 12.8% of those users paying to play. It's worth pointing out that the industry's pay-to-play conversion ratio is often closer to just 2%.Beyond gaming, Sea Limited is building up its digital financial services segment, known as SeaMoney. When the third quarter closed, more than 39 million people were paying for digital wallet services. With access to basic banking services somewhat limited in many of the emerging markets Sea operates, the company looks to have a fast-growing business segment that could help to democratize access to financial services over time.But what may really define Sea for many years to come is Shopee, the company's rapidly growing e-commerce platform. Shopee has consistently been the most downloaded shopping app in Southeastern Asia, and it's gaining steam in Brazil. Shopee's gross merchandise value (GMV) annual run-rate surpassed $67 billion in the third quarter, which is up from $10 billion in GMV for the entirety of 2018.Of the three companies listed here, Sea appears the most likely to eventually make a run at Wall Street's loftiest price target.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":536,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
