announcement and the suspension of production.</li><li>The production halt is temporary and many other electric vehicle (EV) makers have also hiked their prices.</li><li>The dip in Nio stock is a great chance to take your position.</li></ul><p>Electric Vehicle makers in China are having trouble due to the fresh Covid-19 lockdown. Having recently announced a forced halt in EV production, Nio (NYSE:NIO) stock has suffered. The stock tumbled after the announcement since investors assumed that the company will miss production targets. NIO stock went from $23 to $19 over the past two weeks. Once the impact of the pandemic subsides, Nio will have a massive market to cater to since the demand for EVs is only going to expand in the coming years.</p><p>I think the market is overreacting to this move and has a misunderstanding that Nio has completely suspended production. However, this is not the case. Let’s dig deeper into the two reasons you should be bullish on NIO stock.</p><h2>The Production Halt Was Temporary</h2><p>The situation is not as bad as it is feared and I think that it is only temporary. Nio was only taking a short production halt and not closing production completely. However, we might see a dip in the delivery numbers, but it could only be for a month and not a consistent dip. According to the management, Nio will still be running but on a limited scale, and the halt is limited to the weekends only. Nio has already resumed production.</p><p>Let’s not miss out on the big picture. Nio could be up and running in the next few weeks at its full capacity since it has not suspended production completely. This is not reason enough for investors to give up on NIO stock. Interestingly, the company reported solid deliveries for March and met the quarterly delivery target. This is reason enough to have faith in Nio’s production abilities.</p><h2>Nio Is Not the Only One Considering a Price Hike</h2><p>One thing to keep in mind is that whenever the price of raw material increases, manufacturers will consider a price hike. In this case, the price of lithium is skyrocketing and it has impacted all EV makers. However, Nio is not the only one raising the price of its cars. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) has increased prices several times in the past. Since China is still grappling with the pandemic, Nio will have to pay a higher price for the raw materials and this will have an impact on the cost of production. Nio doesn’t have much choice except to raise the price of its cars.</p><p>Even Lucid (NASDAQ:LCID) is considering a price hike to meet the supply chain and inflation concerns. The automakers who haven’t announced a price hike yet may have to do so in the coming months. Sustaining demand in the competitive EV industry is the key to success and as long as Nio manages to produce and deliver the projected number of cars, it will be able to keep growing.</p><h2>Bottom Line on Nio Stock</h2><p>Nio is suffering more than it should and it is because of temporary reasons. The stock was once trading as high as $55 and is finding it difficult to hit $25 now. However, I believe the stock has solid potential to grow and reap returns in the long term. NIO stock is a long-term play and not a stock to sell when the market is down. Keep holding on to the stock for better returns in the second half of the year.</p><p>UBS analyst Paul Gong has a buy rating for the stock with a price target of $32. The analyst thinks that the time to strike is now and the shares look undervalued at the current level. Further, Martin Heung, a Nomura analyst has a buy rating with a price target of $51.50 on NIO shares. At a price target of $51.50, the analyst gives a massive upside potential. Do not underestimate the potential of the stock to rebound and that will be your chance to make the most of NIO stock.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1606302653667","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 Reasons to Be Bullish on NIO Stock</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 Reasons to Be Bullish on NIO Stock\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-04-25 09:42 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2022/04/2-reasons-to-be-bullish-on-nio-stock/><strong>investorplace</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Nio (NIO) stock has been falling after the price hike announcement and the suspension of production.The production halt is temporary and many other electric vehicle (EV) makers have also hiked their ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://investorplace.com/2022/04/2-reasons-to-be-bullish-on-nio-stock/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NIO":"蔚来"},"source_url":"https://investorplace.com/2022/04/2-reasons-to-be-bullish-on-nio-stock/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1130507299","content_text":"Nio (NIO) stock has been falling after the price hike announcement and the suspension of production.The production halt is temporary and many other electric vehicle (EV) makers have also hiked their prices.The dip in Nio stock is a great chance to take your position.Electric Vehicle makers in China are having trouble due to the fresh Covid-19 lockdown.

With positive free cash flow and a single-digit price to sales ratio, it’s the closest thing to a value play you’ll find among EVs. That’s not to say that it IS a value play. Trading at 93 times operating cash flow, it certainly isn’t super cheap–nor is it GAAP profitable just yet. But it is inching ever closer to profitability. In a space where there are few true value plays, stocks like NIO are as close as you can get. So, NIO may be an attractive play for investors who are a little too fundamentals-oriented for the average EV stock.</p><p>Shortly before this article published, NIO released its fourth quarter earnings, which beat on revenue but missed on EPS. Both the revenue beat and earnings miss were pretty small: revenue of $1.55 billion was ahead by $20 million; EPS of $-0.16 was off by two cents. Markets took the earnings poorly, as NIO stock sank after hours.</p><p>But the fact still remains: NIO is one of the few EV companies out there that’s really delivering. Its quarterly vehicle deliveries approach 100,000 on an annualized basis, and it’s already doing over $1.5 billion in quarterly revenue. And the deliveries are increasing each and every single quarter. In the third quarter, NIO delivered 24,439 vehicles, up 100% year-over-year. In January alone, it delivered 9,652 vehicles, up 33% year-over-year. In both of these periods, growth in deliveries was strong. The January figure is particularly important as it indicates NIO will surpass 100,000 deliveries for the full year–a key milestone.</p><p>In 2021, <b>Tesla</b> (TSLA) delivered just under 1 million vehicles. In the same period, <b>Volkswagen</b> (OTCPK:VWAGY) delivered 369,000. These are the kinds of numbers the top players in EVs are putting out. With NIO delivering about 100,000 and growing its deliveries at anywhere from 33% to 100% depending on what period you’re looking at, it could reach this level in just a few years.</p><p>So, NIO is a fast-growing company. In this respect, it’s not different from other EV names. The EV industry is growing at about 24% CAGR, so naturally, a lot of companies in the space have strong growth. What does make NIO a little different is its modest valuation. At today’s prices, NIO trades at just 6.5 times sales and 8 times book value. If you dispute my characterization of those multiples as being “low,” remember that this is an EV company we’re talking about. Even the relatively mature companies in this space usually trade at over 10 times sales. Throw NIO’s 178% three-year CAGR revenue growth on top of its modest multiples, and we may have a true GARP play on our hands here.</p><p>With all that said, I have not invested any money in this stock personally. I think it has a lot of potential, but it isn’t quite at the level of maturity where a complete valuation analysis can be done on it. According to the company’s cash flow statements, it only achieved positive free cash flow (“FCF”) in 2020. So we don’t have a long history of cash flows or earnings to work with here. The revenue trend certainly suggests that the future is bright, but it’s tough to gauge precisely how much the stock is worth. For this reason, I rate the stock a “hold,” as it looks promising but is subject to some uncertainty.</p><p><b>Competitive Landscape</b></p><p>For a company like NIO, the competitive landscape is of crucial importance. EVs are extremely “buzzy” products, and for this reason, the industry is seeing a lot of new entrants. Not only are there countless EV startups out there, but the established auto makers are getting in on the action too. <b>GM</b> (GM) and <b>Ford</b> (F) are rolling out their own EV offerings to compete with the all-electric players. So, this industry has a lot of competition.</p><p>In the EV space, NIO’s biggest competitors include:</p><ul><li><p>Tesla (TSLA)</p></li><li><p>Volkswagen (OTCPK:VWAGY)</p></li><li><p><b>BYD</b> (OTCPK:BYDDF)</p></li><li><p><b>Rivian</b> (RIVN)</p></li><li><p><b>Lucid</b> (LCID)</p></li></ul><p>NIO’s competition with Tesla and Volkswagen is already material. Both of those companies are already selling EVs in China, where NIO makes the vast majority of its sales. The competition with RIVN and LCID is more of a distant possibility. Rivian is still in its infancy, having delivered only 920 cars at the end of 2021, while Lucid is only selling to the U.S. market. LCID is backed by Chinese investors and is planning a Chinese factory, so it may enter the Chinese market eventually.</p><p>So, the “big three” that NIO competes with are Tesla, VW and BYD.</p><p>NIO is presently in third place in deliveries behind Tesla and VW. In 2021, Tesla delivered 936,000 vehicles, VW delivered 369,000. In the same period, NIO delivered 91,429. Its deliveries grew by 109% year-over-year. The growth rates for Tesla and VW were 97% and 100%, respectively. So NIO was last on volume but first on deliveries growth. That makes perfect sense. In economics, the law of diminishing marginal returns states that businesses reach a point where an extra dollar spent results in a smaller incremental gain in production. Tesla and VM, being larger than NIO, are more likely to be at diminishing returns than NIO is.</p><p>BYD also merits a brief mention. It manufactures a wide variety of electric vehicles, from buses and trucks to cars. This makes it less of a “head to head” competitor with NIO compared to Tesla, but it’s still worth mentioning. BYD mainly sells cars in China, so the car portion of its business undoubtedly competes head to head with NIO. If we include BYD’s PHEVs, it sold far more vehicles than NIO in 2021: 593,745 of them, to be specific. If we narrow it down to just BEVs, then BYD enjoys a smaller lead, with 320,000 sold in 2021. BYD also bests NIO on delivery growth, having upped its deliveries 231% year-over-year.</p><p><b>Product Development</b></p><p>As we’ve seen so far, NIO enjoys a solid place in its industry. It beats Tesla and VW on growth, but is behind BYD on both size and growth. It is well ahead of companies like Rivian and Lucid that are only just beginning to deliver vehicles. So, it is a middle-of-the-pack competitor.</p><p>Will it improve its market share in the future?</p><p>To answer that question, we need to look at NIO’s products. As mentioned previously, the EV industry is a competitive place, one where new entrants are always nipping at the incumbents’ heels. In such an industry, the quality of a company’s offerings is very important, as this determines its ability to win over customers who have other options.</p><p>Here’s what NIO’s lineup looks like today:</p><ul><li><p><b>The ET5 and ET7.</b> The flagship sedans. The ET5 is cheaper, but some say it travels further on one charge, due to its smaller size. NIO advertises a 1,000 kilometer range for both of these models but reviewers have noted that the ET5 seems to go further in real world use.</p></li><li><p><b>The EC6 and ES8.</b> These are both SUVs. The ES8 is a luxury SUV with a high price tag, the EC6 is a smaller and more affordable coupe SUV. The EC6 has the biggest range of NIO’s SUVs, at 615 kilometers.</p></li><li><p><b>The ES6.</b> A mid-size SUV with a range between that of the EC6 and ES8.</p></li></ul><p>The general theme here is that NIO’s smaller models have a bigger range while its larger and more luxurious ones have smaller ranges. This is different from Tesla, whose most expensive car (the Roadster) also has the best range. It seems that NIO is going for space and luxurious interiors on its higher end models, and range on its lower end ones. This positioning perhaps makes sense, as luxury car buyers are going for comfort more than performance. However, the big range edge that the sedans have over the SUVs would appear to make the latter less appealing to anyone wanting to travel long distances.</p><p><b>Recent Financials</b></p><p>As we’ve seen, NIO is an extremely fast-growing company with solid positioning in the luxury end of the Chinese EV market. It has all the ingredients for success. Is that translating to solid financials? To answer that question, we need to look at the most recent quarter’s earnings.</p><p>In Q4, NIO delivered:</p><ul><li><p>$1.55 billion in revenue, up 49% (beat by $20 million).</p></li><li><p>$266.7 billion in gross profit, up 28.8%.</p></li><li><p>A $383 million operating loss, up 162.5% from the same quarter a year before (in this case “up” means worse, as we’re talking about growth in losses).</p></li><li><p>$-0.16 in adjusted EPS, missed by $0.02.</p></li><li><p>25,034 vehicles shipped.</p></li></ul><p>Overall, it was a solid quarter in terms of revenue, but a disappointing one in terms of earnings. The earnings remained negative and the losses widened. The widening losses were attributed to the loss of regulatory credits and share-based compensation. Investors might want to see this company’s share-based compensation come down, as it helped drive bigger losses. On the other hand, when we look at the long term trend in losses, they seem to be getting smaller, so perhaps this quarter was a rare exception.</p><p><b>Risks and Challenges</b></p><p>As we’ve seen so far, NIO is a high-growth company with a solid competitive position. It is still losing money, and its EPS loss widened in the most recent quarter–though is shrinking on a full year basis. Because NIO’s net losses make up a small percentage of revenue, it looks like it could become profitable soon. Given all these mixed signals, NIO is a clear hold in my books. I’d neither buy nor short it, but I respect the longs’ thesis. Nevertheless, there are risks and challenges for both holders and shorts to be aware of.</p><p>Those long NIO stock primarily need to keep an eye on competition. Tesla is moving cars in China, the home-grown BYD is quite popular there already, European companies are moving in. It’s a competitive space, much like traditional automotives. So, NIO investors will want to look at how the company is differentiating itself from competitors. The ‘luxury’ thing certainly differentiates it from BYD, but Tesla is a different story.</p><p>Those short NIO should keep in mind the long term trends. The company’s revenue growth is still extremely strong. Its losses grew in the most recent quarter, but losses as a percentage of revenue are trending downward long term. It definitely looks like this company is approaching profitability. If it does swing profitable then the stock might enjoy a boost.</p><p>I’m not playing NIO one way or the other, but I’d prefer to go long than to short it, if I had to choose. The stock is relatively cheap and could swing profitable as soon as this year. Given its small market cap, it could move dramatically on such news. But we don’t know when such news will be forthcoming. So for me, this is a “wait and see” stock. I’d want to see at least a few quarters of positive earnings before buying it. But for those with higher risk tolerance than me, the post-earnings dip may be a great buying opportunity.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>NIO Stock: Mixed Earnings, Good Value</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\">\nNIO Stock: Mixed Earnings, Good Value\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-25 14:12 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4497715-nio-stock-q4-2021-earnings-mixed-good-value><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryNIO just released its fourth quarter earnings which beat on revenue but missed on adjusted EPS.I'm not the biggest fan of EV stocks, but I'd consider NIO a relatively good value in the space....</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4497715-nio-stock-q4-2021-earnings-mixed-good-value\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NIO":"蔚来"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4497715-nio-stock-q4-2021-earnings-mixed-good-value","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2222007132","content_text":"SummaryNIO just released its fourth quarter earnings which beat on revenue but missed on adjusted EPS.I'm not the biggest fan of EV stocks, but I'd consider NIO a relatively good value in the space.Its revenue growth is in the triple digits and its deliveries are approaching 100,000 cars per year.The stock is relatively cheap, at least by EV standards.In this article I make the case that NIO is a hold, as it has a mix of good and bad qualities.SimonSkafar/E+ via Getty ImagesNIO Inc (NYSE:NIO) is a true rarity among EV companies.

Tesla is moving cars in China, the home-grown BYD is quite popular there already, European companies are moving in. It’s a competitive space, much like traditional automotives. So, NIO investors will want to look at how the company is differentiating itself from competitors. The ‘luxury’ thing certainly differentiates it from BYD, but Tesla is a different story.Those short NIO should keep in mind the long term trends. The company’s revenue growth is still extremely strong. Its losses grew in the most recent quarter, but losses as a percentage of revenue are trending downward long term. It definitely looks like this company is approaching profitability. If it does swing profitable then the stock might enjoy a boost.I’m not playing NIO one way or the other, but I’d prefer to go long than to short it, if I had to choose. The stock is relatively cheap and could swing profitable as soon as this year. Given its small market cap, it could move dramatically on such news. But we don’t know when such news will be forthcoming. So for me, this is a “wait and see” stock. I’d want to see at least a few quarters of positive earnings before buying it. But for those with higher risk tolerance than me, the post-earnings dip may be a great buying opportunity.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":250,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9037741145,"gmtCreate":1648190723480,"gmtModify":1676534315333,"author":{"id":"3581983815933718","authorId":"3581983815933718","name":"LioLCK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/957f97dddbf2fa1647de2a57e0922b4b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581983815933718","idStr":"3581983815933718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9037741145","repostId":"2222007132","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2222007132","pubTimestamp":1648188758,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2222007132?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-25 14:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"NIO Stock: Mixed Earnings, Good Value","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2222007132","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"SummaryNIO just released its fourth quarter earnings which beat on revenue but missed on adjusted EP","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>NIO just released its fourth quarter earnings which beat on revenue but missed on adjusted EPS.</li><li>I&#39;m not the biggest fan of EV stocks, but I&#39;d consider NIO a relatively good value in the space.</li><li>Its revenue growth is in the triple digits and its deliveries are approaching 100,000 cars per year.</li><li>The stock is relatively cheap, at least by EV standards.</li><li>In this article I make the case that NIO is a hold, as it has a mix of good and bad qualities.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/51026759fca43e36f173766ad3463870\" tg-width=\"750\" tg-height=\"500\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>SimonSkafar/E+ via Getty Images</span></p><p><b>NIO Inc</b> (NYSE:NIO) is a true rarity among EV companies. With positive free cash flow and a single-digit price to sales ratio, it’s the closest thing to a value play you’ll find among EVs. That’s not to say that it IS a value play. Trading at 93 times operating cash flow, it certainly isn’t super cheap–nor is it GAAP profitable just yet. But it is inching ever closer to profitability. In a space where there are few true value plays, stocks like NIO are as close as you can get. So, NIO may be an attractive play for investors who are a little too fundamentals-oriented for the average EV stock.</p><p>Shortly before this article published, NIO released its fourth quarter earnings, which beat on revenue but missed on EPS. Both the revenue beat and earnings miss were pretty small: revenue of $1.55 billion was ahead by $20 million; EPS of $-0.16 was off by two cents. Markets took the earnings poorly, as NIO stock sank after hours.</p><p>But the fact still remains: NIO is one of the few EV companies out there that’s really delivering. Its quarterly vehicle deliveries approach 100,000 on an annualized basis, and it’s already doing over $1.5 billion in quarterly revenue. And the deliveries are increasing each and every single quarter. In the third quarter, NIO delivered 24,439 vehicles, up 100% year-over-year. In January alone, it delivered 9,652 vehicles, up 33% year-over-year. In both of these periods, growth in deliveries was strong. The January figure is particularly important as it indicates NIO will surpass 100,000 deliveries for the full year–a key milestone.</p><p>In 2021, <b>Tesla</b> (TSLA) delivered just under 1 million vehicles. In the same period, <b>Volkswagen</b> (OTCPK:VWAGY) delivered 369,000. These are the kinds of numbers the top players in EVs are putting out. With NIO delivering about 100,000 and growing its deliveries at anywhere from 33% to 100% depending on what period you’re looking at, it could reach this level in just a few years.</p><p>So, NIO is a fast-growing company. In this respect, it’s not different from other EV names. The EV industry is growing at about 24% CAGR, so naturally, a lot of companies in the space have strong growth. What does make NIO a little different is its modest valuation. At today’s prices, NIO trades at just 6.5 times sales and 8 times book value. If you dispute my characterization of those multiples as being “low,” remember that this is an EV company we’re talking about. Even the relatively mature companies in this space usually trade at over 10 times sales. Throw NIO’s 178% three-year CAGR revenue growth on top of its modest multiples, and we may have a true GARP play on our hands here.</p><p>With all that said, I have not invested any money in this stock personally. I think it has a lot of potential, but it isn’t quite at the level of maturity where a complete valuation analysis can be done on it. According to the company’s cash flow statements, it only achieved positive free cash flow (“FCF”) in 2020. So we don’t have a long history of cash flows or earnings to work with here. The revenue trend certainly suggests that the future is bright, but it’s tough to gauge precisely how much the stock is worth. For this reason, I rate the stock a “hold,” as it looks promising but is subject to some uncertainty.</p><p><b>Competitive Landscape</b></p><p>For a company like NIO, the competitive landscape is of crucial importance. EVs are extremely “buzzy” products, and for this reason, the industry is seeing a lot of new entrants. Not only are there countless EV startups out there, but the established auto makers are getting in on the action too. <b>GM</b> (GM) and <b>Ford</b> (F) are rolling out their own EV offerings to compete with the all-electric players. So, this industry has a lot of competition.</p><p>In the EV space, NIO’s biggest competitors include:</p><ul><li><p>Tesla (TSLA)</p></li><li><p>Volkswagen (OTCPK:VWAGY)</p></li><li><p><b>BYD</b> (OTCPK:BYDDF)</p></li><li><p><b>Rivian</b> (RIVN)</p></li><li><p><b>Lucid</b> (LCID)</p></li></ul><p>NIO’s competition with Tesla and Volkswagen is already material. Both of those companies are already selling EVs in China, where NIO makes the vast majority of its sales. The competition with RIVN and LCID is more of a distant possibility. Rivian is still in its infancy, having delivered only 920 cars at the end of 2021, while Lucid is only selling to the U.S. market. LCID is backed by Chinese investors and is planning a Chinese factory, so it may enter the Chinese market eventually.</p><p>So, the “big three” that NIO competes with are Tesla, VW and BYD.</p><p>NIO is presently in third place in deliveries behind Tesla and VW. In 2021, Tesla delivered 936,000 vehicles, VW delivered 369,000. In the same period, NIO delivered 91,429. Its deliveries grew by 109% year-over-year. The growth rates for Tesla and VW were 97% and 100%, respectively. So NIO was last on volume but first on deliveries growth. That makes perfect sense. In economics, the law of diminishing marginal returns states that businesses reach a point where an extra dollar spent results in a smaller incremental gain in production. Tesla and VM, being larger than NIO, are more likely to be at diminishing returns than NIO is.</p><p>BYD also merits a brief mention. It manufactures a wide variety of electric vehicles, from buses and trucks to cars. This makes it less of a “head to head” competitor with NIO compared to Tesla, but it’s still worth mentioning. BYD mainly sells cars in China, so the car portion of its business undoubtedly competes head to head with NIO. If we include BYD’s PHEVs, it sold far more vehicles than NIO in 2021: 593,745 of them, to be specific. If we narrow it down to just BEVs, then BYD enjoys a smaller lead, with 320,000 sold in 2021. BYD also bests NIO on delivery growth, having upped its deliveries 231% year-over-year.</p><p><b>Product Development</b></p><p>As we’ve seen so far, NIO enjoys a solid place in its industry. It beats Tesla and VW on growth, but is behind BYD on both size and growth. It is well ahead of companies like Rivian and Lucid that are only just beginning to deliver vehicles. So, it is a middle-of-the-pack competitor.</p><p>Will it improve its market share in the future?</p><p>To answer that question, we need to look at NIO’s products. As mentioned previously, the EV industry is a competitive place, one where new entrants are always nipping at the incumbents’ heels. In such an industry, the quality of a company’s offerings is very important, as this determines its ability to win over customers who have other options.</p><p>Here’s what NIO’s lineup looks like today:</p><ul><li><p><b>The ET5 and ET7.</b> The flagship sedans. The ET5 is cheaper, but some say it travels further on one charge, due to its smaller size. NIO advertises a 1,000 kilometer range for both of these models but reviewers have noted that the ET5 seems to go further in real world use.</p></li><li><p><b>The EC6 and ES8.</b> These are both SUVs. The ES8 is a luxury SUV with a high price tag, the EC6 is a smaller and more affordable coupe SUV. The EC6 has the biggest range of NIO’s SUVs, at 615 kilometers.</p></li><li><p><b>The ES6.</b> A mid-size SUV with a range between that of the EC6 and ES8.</p></li></ul><p>The general theme here is that NIO’s smaller models have a bigger range while its larger and more luxurious ones have smaller ranges. This is different from Tesla, whose most expensive car (the Roadster) also has the best range. It seems that NIO is going for space and luxurious interiors on its higher end models, and range on its lower end ones. This positioning perhaps makes sense, as luxury car buyers are going for comfort more than performance. However, the big range edge that the sedans have over the SUVs would appear to make the latter less appealing to anyone wanting to travel long distances.</p><p><b>Recent Financials</b></p><p>As we’ve seen, NIO is an extremely fast-growing company with solid positioning in the luxury end of the Chinese EV market. It has all the ingredients for success. Is that translating to solid financials? To answer that question, we need to look at the most recent quarter’s earnings.</p><p>In Q4, NIO delivered:</p><ul><li><p>$1.55 billion in revenue, up 49% (beat by $20 million).</p></li><li><p>$266.7 billion in gross profit, up 28.8%.</p></li><li><p>A $383 million operating loss, up 162.5% from the same quarter a year before (in this case “up” means worse, as we’re talking about growth in losses).</p></li><li><p>$-0.16 in adjusted EPS, missed by $0.02.</p></li><li><p>25,034 vehicles shipped.</p></li></ul><p>Overall, it was a solid quarter in terms of revenue, but a disappointing one in terms of earnings. The earnings remained negative and the losses widened. The widening losses were attributed to the loss of regulatory credits and share-based compensation. Investors might want to see this company’s share-based compensation come down, as it helped drive bigger losses. On the other hand, when we look at the long term trend in losses, they seem to be getting smaller, so perhaps this quarter was a rare exception.</p><p><b>Risks and Challenges</b></p><p>As we’ve seen so far, NIO is a high-growth company with a solid competitive position. It is still losing money, and its EPS loss widened in the most recent quarter–though is shrinking on a full year basis. Because NIO’s net losses make up a small percentage of revenue, it looks like it could become profitable soon. Given all these mixed signals, NIO is a clear hold in my books. I’d neither buy nor short it, but I respect the longs’ thesis. Nevertheless, there are risks and challenges for both holders and shorts to be aware of.</p><p>Those long NIO stock primarily need to keep an eye on competition.

Tesla is moving cars in China, the home-grown BYD is quite popular there already, European companies are moving in. It’s a competitive space, much like traditional automotives. So, NIO investors will want to look at how the company is differentiating itself from competitors. The ‘luxury’ thing certainly differentiates it from BYD, but Tesla is a different story.Those short NIO should keep in mind the long term trends. The company’s revenue growth is still extremely strong. Its losses grew in the most recent quarter, but losses as a percentage of revenue are trending downward long term. It definitely looks like this company is approaching profitability. If it does swing profitable then the stock might enjoy a boost.I’m not playing NIO one way or the other, but I’d prefer to go long than to short it, if I had to choose. The stock is relatively cheap and could swing profitable as soon as this year. Given its small market cap, it could move dramatically on such news. But we don’t know when such news will be forthcoming. So for me, this is a “wait and see” stock. I’d want to see at least a few quarters of positive earnings before buying it. But for those with higher risk tolerance than me, the post-earnings dip may be a great buying opportunity.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":265,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9003135063,"gmtCreate":1640908016209,"gmtModify":1676533552865,"author":{"id":"3581983815933718","authorId":"3581983815933718","name":"LioLCK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/957f97dddbf2fa1647de2a57e0922b4b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581983815933718","idStr":"3581983815933718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9003135063","repostId":"1139674064","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":525,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":883125540,"gmtCreate":1631228835680,"gmtModify":1676530499772,"author":{"id":"3581983815933718","authorId":"3581983815933718","name":"LioLCK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/957f97dddbf2fa1647de2a57e0922b4b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581983815933718","idStr":"3581983815933718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hmm...","listText":"Hmm...","text":"Hmm...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/883125540","repostId":"1150166367","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1150166367","pubTimestamp":1631166698,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1150166367?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-09 13:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Day Trading: Rules, Risks, & Strategies","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1150166367","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Thanks to the advent of online trading houses, it's far easier now to get in the game of day trading","content":"<p>Thanks to the advent of online trading houses, it's far easier now to get in the game of day trading.

For instance, it specifies that a \"pattern day trader\" must maintain at minimum $25,000 in equity on any day that they day trade. (A non-pattern day trader is only required to maintain $2,000). Furthermore, the required minimum equity must be in the account before any day-trading begins.

Successful day traders are expected to pay income taxes just like traditional investors in the stock market. In very rare cases, day traders can apply for special day trader tax treatment with the IRS. To qualify for that status, the IRS looks for the following criteria: 1) Profit seeking must derive from daily market movements in securities' prices, not from dividends or longer-term capital appreciation. 2) Market activity must be high. 3) The investor must be trading with both continuity and regularity.</p>\n<p>But for those who aren’t eligible, the following rules apply:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><p>Day traders are required to pay taxes on investment gains in the year they sell.</p></li>\n <li><p>Day traders may offset gains against losses, but the gains they offset cannot total more than their losses.</p></li>\n <li><p>If positions are held for a year or less, ordinary income taxes apply to any gains.</p></li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Is Day Trading for Everyone?</b></p>\n<p>For a new investor just starting to get into the markets, day trading likely isn’t suitable.

The S&P 500 dipped 0.75% to 4,327.16 and the Nasdaq Composite shed 0.8% to 14,427.24.\nThe three averages closed the week lower to each snap 3-week win streaks. The Dow ended the week down 0.52%, while the S&P 500 dipped 0.97% and the Nasdaq Composite fell 1.87% during the same period.\n\nA U.S.consumer sentimentindex from the University of Michigan came in at 80.8 for the first half of July, down from 85.5 last month and worse than estimates from economists, who projected an increase. The report released Friday showed inflation expectations rising, with consumers believing prices will increase 4.8% in the next year, the highest level since August 2008.\nThe Dow gave up its gains early Friday shortly after the University of Michigan report came out 30 minutes into the session. Losses increased as the day went on with major averages closing at the lows of the session.\nThe consumer sentiment weakness “is at face value hard to square with the acceleration in employment growth and the continued resilience of the stock market,” said Andrew Hunter, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics, but the report “suggested that concerns over surging inflation are now outweighing those positive trends.”\nInflation fears\nThe market was held back all week by inflation fears although the S&P 500 and Dow did touch new all-time highs briefly. On Tuesday, theconsumer price indexshowed a 5.4% increase in June from a year ago, the fastest pace in nearly 13 years.\nStocks got off to a good start Friday with the Dow rising more than 100 points to above 35,000 shortly after the open.Data released before the bell showed retail and food service salesrose 0.6% in June, while economists surveyed by Dow Jones had expected a 0.4% decline. If that level held, it would have been the Dow’s first close ever above 35,000.\nDespite the week’s losses, the Dow is still up 13% for the year and sits just 1.15% from an all-time high. The S&P 500 is up 15% on the year and is 1.51% below its record level.\n“The market looks broadly fairly valued to me, with most stocks priced to provide a market rate of return plus or minus a few percent,” Bill Miller, chairman and chief investment officer of Miller Value Partners,said in an investor letter.\n“There are pockets of what look like appreciable over-valuation and pockets of significant undervaluation in the US market, in my opinion. We can find plenty of names to fill our portfolios and so remain fully invested,” the value investor added.\nEnergy correction\nEnergy stocks, the hottest part of the market in 2021, fell into correction territory on Friday as oil prices pulled back from their highs.\nThe Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund fell more than 2% on Friday, the worst of any group, dropping 14% from its high. Still, the sector is up about 28% in 2021, making it the top performer of any of the 11 main industry groups.\nWeaker performance from technology stocks also weighed on the market Friday. Shares of Apple closed 1.4% lower afternotching a record closejust two days prior. Netflix shares fell ahead of the streaming giant’s second-quarter earnings report next week.\nInvestors digested strong earnings results from the first major week of second-quarter reports. Though some of the nation’s largest companies posted healthy earnings and revenues amid the economic recovery, the reaction in the stock market has so far been muted.\nThe Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund ended the week 1.5% lower despite big profit growth numbers posted by the likes of JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America.\n“Good earnings might have become an excuse for some investors to take profit. And with earnings expectations so high in general, it takes a really big beat for a company to impress,” JJ Kinahan, TD Ameritrade chief market strategist, said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":521,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":141725516,"gmtCreate":1625893252635,"gmtModify":1703750620877,"author":{"id":"3581983815933718","authorId":"3581983815933718","name":"LioLCK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/957f97dddbf2fa1647de2a57e0922b4b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581983815933718","idStr":"3581983815933718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"NIO will follow suit","listText":"NIO will follow suit","text":"NIO will follow suit","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/141725516","repostId":"1177397700","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1177397700","pubTimestamp":1625876446,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1177397700?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-10 08:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Which Company Can Reach $1 Trillion After Facebook?

All five members of the trillion-dollar club were either higher or flat on Friday in the wake of Biden’s executive order.\nIt’s time to take regulation more seriously, says Ed Yardeni, president of Yardeni Research. “A trillion here, a trillion there attracts a lot of attention from politicians.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":453,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":143669053,"gmtCreate":1625792002272,"gmtModify":1703748578289,"author":{"id":"3581983815933718","authorId":"3581983815933718","name":"LioLCK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/957f97dddbf2fa1647de2a57e0922b4b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581983815933718","idStr":"3581983815933718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Should also include their investors","listText":"Should also include their investors","text":"Should also include their investors","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/143669053","repostId":"1137658325","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1137658325","pubTimestamp":1625786881,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1137658325?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-09 07:28","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Microsoft will give employees a $1,500 bonus for their efforts during the pandemic","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1137658325","media":"CNBC","summary":"KEY POINTS\n\nMicrosoft will spend around $200 million on bonuses it will disburse to many employees i","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nMicrosoft will spend around $200 million on bonuses it will disburse to many employees in the U.S. and abroad.\nThe software company also gave out extra vacation days earlier this year.\n\n...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/08/microsoft-will-give-employees-a-1500-bonus-for-pandemic-efforts.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Before the Internet, only people working for large financial institutions, brokerages, or physical trading houses, could take part in the stock market in such an active fashion. Today, markets and transactions are accessible to almost anyone.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/648c1300983659c803b16b3d0a0f74ec\" tg-width=\"1536\" tg-height=\"1024\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>MoMo Productions/DigitalVision via Getty Images</span></p>\n<p><b>What Da</b><b>y Tr</b><b>ading Is</b></p>\n<p>At base, day trading consists of frequently buying, selling and short-selling equities in a short period of time, usually reversing out of several positions within the same trading session. The aim is to earn a profit on each trade, sometimes even small profits, and watch those gains compound. The practice can be risky, but also highly lucrative.</p>\n<p>Day trading may sound enticing for those looking to make a swift profit, but it can be extremely challenging to make a formidable career out of the practice. In fact, a study published by the University of California, Davis, in 2010 revealed that only 1% of day traders consistently make a living from that practice.</p>\n<p>But for the few who can succeed in the high-stakes world of day trading, it likely will consume most to all of their time. It is very much a full-time job.</p>\n<p><b>How Day Trading Works</b></p>\n<p>At its core, day trading is all about stock market volatility; day traders look for stocks that are on the move. Whether it’s positive or negative news which alters a stock’s trajectory, economic reports, corporate earnings, or simply a change in market mood, day traders cash in on rapid change. They enter and exit positions very quickly. Day traders must monitor positions closely, and often make quick, high-stakes decisions.

For instance, it specifies that a \"pattern day trader\" must maintain at minimum $25,000 in equity on any day that they day trade. (A non-pattern day trader is only required to maintain $2,000).

Before the Internet, only people working for large financial institutions, brokerages, or physical trading houses, could take part in the stock market in such an active fashion. Today, markets and transactions are accessible to almost anyone.\nMoMo Productions/DigitalVision via Getty Images\nWhat Day Trading Is\nAt base, day trading consists of frequently buying, selling and short-selling equities in a short period of time, usually reversing out of several positions within the same trading session. The aim is to earn a profit on each trade, sometimes even small profits, and watch those gains compound. The practice can be risky, but also highly lucrative.\nDay trading may sound enticing for those looking to make a swift profit, but it can be extremely challenging to make a formidable career out of the practice. In fact, a study published by the University of California, Davis, in 2010 revealed that only 1% of day traders consistently make a living from that practice.\nBut for the few who can succeed in the high-stakes world of day trading, it likely will consume most to all of their time. It is very much a full-time job.\nHow Day Trading Works\nAt its core, day trading is all about stock market volatility; day traders look for stocks that are on the move. Whether it’s positive or negative news which alters a stock’s trajectory, economic reports, corporate earnings, or simply a change in market mood, day traders cash in on rapid change. They enter and exit positions very quickly. Day traders must monitor positions closely, and often make quick, high-stakes decisions. There's no going to the pub for an afternoon drink hoping the positions they've taken will turn out.\nSomething to note, opportunities are not limited to betting that an investment security will rise in price; traders can also profit by betting on downward price movements. Liquidity is also very important to day traders, even more so than other investors. Since day traders need to be able to move in and out of positions with ease, they need to look out for equities which are highly liquid.\n\nKey Takeaway: Day trading is very much about stock market volatility; day traders look for stocks making moves over short time spans.\n\nMost day trading strategies offer a lot of flexibility, allowing day traders to keep their positions open from a few minutes to a few hours. The amount of time that the position is open depends on how the trade is doing and whether the day trader can seize a profit at that time.\nDay traders can consider a variety of markets such as futures, equities, currencies, and options. And they can have access to all the exchanges via a direct access broker. It’s one of the fastest and most affordable ways to engage in day trading.\nMethods of the Day Trader\nThere are various types of day trading, each suited for different styles. They can range from short-term trading, where stocks are held for a few seconds or minutes, to more long-term positions where stocks are held throughout the trading day.\nDay trader strategies include:\n\nScalping:This method seeks to make many small profits on small price changes throughout the day.\nRange trading:This method mostly relies on support and resistance levels to make decisions. (Support and resistance levels are concepts which assist traders to fully comprehend and act in the markets. Support refers to a price level where a downtrend is interrupted due to rising demand for an asset. Resistance refers to a level where an uptrend reverses a sell-off.)\nNews-based trading:Here, day traders take advantage of volatility surrounding news events.\nHigh-frequency trading ((HFT)):This method utilizes algorithms to exploit small or short-term market inefficiencies.\n\nSwing Trading vs. Trend Trading vs. Buy and Hold\nWhile a day trader closes out his positions at the end of each trading day, a swing trader can hold her positions for days to even weeks before selling. In swing trading, since there is more time for an equity’s price to increase, there is also more opportunity to profit. With the right selling strategy, swing trading can be much less risky than day trading.\nBy contrast, trend trading involves using a stock’s past price movements to make predictions on its future trajectory.

The S&P 500 dipped 0.75% to 4,327.16 and the Nasdaq Composite shed 0.8% to 14,427.24.\nThe three averages closed the week lower to each snap 3-week win streaks. The Dow ended the week down 0.52%, while the S&P 500 dipped 0.97% and the Nasdaq Composite fell 1.87% during the same period.\n\nA U.S.consumer sentimentindex from the University of Michigan came in at 80.8 for the first half of July, down from 85.5 last month and worse than estimates from economists, who projected an increase. The report released Friday showed inflation expectations rising, with consumers believing prices will increase 4.8% in the next year, the highest level since August 2008.\nThe Dow gave up its gains early Friday shortly after the University of Michigan report came out 30 minutes into the session. Losses increased as the day went on with major averages closing at the lows of the session.\nThe consumer sentiment weakness “is at face value hard to square with the acceleration in employment growth and the continued resilience of the stock market,” said Andrew Hunter, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics, but the report “suggested that concerns over surging inflation are now outweighing those positive trends.”\nInflation fears\nThe market was held back all week by inflation fears although the S&P 500 and Dow did touch new all-time highs briefly. On Tuesday, theconsumer price indexshowed a 5.4% increase in June from a year ago, the fastest pace in nearly 13 years.\nStocks got off to a good start Friday with the Dow rising more than 100 points to above 35,000 shortly after the open.Data released before the bell showed retail and food service salesrose 0.6% in June, while economists surveyed by Dow Jones had expected a 0.4% decline. If that level held, it would have been the Dow’s first close ever above 35,000.\nDespite the week’s losses, the Dow is still up 13% for the year and sits just 1.15% from an all-time high. The S&P 500 is up 15% on the year and is 1.51% below its record level.\n“The market looks broadly fairly valued to me, with most stocks priced to provide a market rate of return plus or minus a few percent,” Bill Miller, chairman and chief investment officer of Miller Value Partners,said in an investor letter.\n“There are pockets of what look like appreciable over-valuation and pockets of significant undervaluation in the US market, in my opinion. We can find plenty of names to fill our portfolios and so remain fully invested,” the value investor added.\nEnergy correction\nEnergy stocks, the hottest part of the market in 2021, fell into correction territory on Friday as oil prices pulled back from their highs.\nThe Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund fell more than 2% on Friday, the worst of any group, dropping 14% from its high. Still, the sector is up about 28% in 2021, making it the top performer of any of the 11 main industry groups.\nWeaker performance from technology stocks also weighed on the market Friday. Shares of Apple closed 1.4% lower afternotching a record closejust two days prior. Netflix shares fell ahead of the streaming giant’s second-quarter earnings report next week.\nInvestors digested strong earnings results from the first major week of second-quarter reports. Though some of the nation’s largest companies posted healthy earnings and revenues amid the economic recovery, the reaction in the stock market has so far been muted.\nThe Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund ended the week 1.5% lower despite big profit growth numbers posted by the likes of JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America.\n“Good earnings might have become an excuse for some investors to take profit. And with earnings expectations so high in general, it takes a really big beat for a company to impress,” JJ Kinahan, TD Ameritrade chief market strategist, said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":521,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":141725516,"gmtCreate":1625893252635,"gmtModify":1703750620877,"author":{"id":"3581983815933718","authorId":"3581983815933718","name":"LioLCK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/957f97dddbf2fa1647de2a57e0922b4b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581983815933718","idStr":"3581983815933718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"NIO will follow suit","listText":"NIO will follow suit","text":"NIO will follow suit","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/141725516","repostId":"1177397700","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1177397700","pubTimestamp":1625876446,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1177397700?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-10 08:20","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Which Company Can Reach $1 Trillion After Facebook?

With positive free cash flow and a single-digit price to sales ratio, it’s the closest thing to a value play you’ll find among EVs. That’s not to say that it IS a value play. Trading at 93 times operating cash flow, it certainly isn’t super cheap–nor is it GAAP profitable just yet. But it is inching ever closer to profitability. In a space where there are few true value plays, stocks like NIO are as close as you can get. So, NIO may be an attractive play for investors who are a little too fundamentals-oriented for the average EV stock.</p><p>Shortly before this article published, NIO released its fourth quarter earnings, which beat on revenue but missed on EPS. Both the revenue beat and earnings miss were pretty small: revenue of $1.55 billion was ahead by $20 million; EPS of $-0.16 was off by two cents. Markets took the earnings poorly, as NIO stock sank after hours.</p><p>But the fact still remains: NIO is one of the few EV companies out there that’s really delivering. Its quarterly vehicle deliveries approach 100,000 on an annualized basis, and it’s already doing over $1.5 billion in quarterly revenue. And the deliveries are increasing each and every single quarter. In the third quarter, NIO delivered 24,439 vehicles, up 100% year-over-year. In January alone, it delivered 9,652 vehicles, up 33% year-over-year. In both of these periods, growth in deliveries was strong. The January figure is particularly important as it indicates NIO will surpass 100,000 deliveries for the full year–a key milestone.</p><p>In 2021, <b>Tesla</b> (TSLA) delivered just under 1 million vehicles. In the same period, <b>Volkswagen</b> (OTCPK:VWAGY) delivered 369,000. These are the kinds of numbers the top players in EVs are putting out. With NIO delivering about 100,000 and growing its deliveries at anywhere from 33% to 100% depending on what period you’re looking at, it could reach this level in just a few years.</p><p>So, NIO is a fast-growing company. In this respect, it’s not different from other EV names. The EV industry is growing at about 24% CAGR, so naturally, a lot of companies in the space have strong growth. What does make NIO a little different is its modest valuation. At today’s prices, NIO trades at just 6.5 times sales and 8 times book value. If you dispute my characterization of those multiples as being “low,” remember that this is an EV company we’re talking about. Even the relatively mature companies in this space usually trade at over 10 times sales. Throw NIO’s 178% three-year CAGR revenue growth on top of its modest multiples, and we may have a true GARP play on our hands here.</p><p>With all that said, I have not invested any money in this stock personally. I think it has a lot of potential, but it isn’t quite at the level of maturity where a complete valuation analysis can be done on it. According to the company’s cash flow statements, it only achieved positive free cash flow (“FCF”) in 2020. So we don’t have a long history of cash flows or earnings to work with here. The revenue trend certainly suggests that the future is bright, but it’s tough to gauge precisely how much the stock is worth. For this reason, I rate the stock a “hold,” as it looks promising but is subject to some uncertainty.</p><p><b>Competitive Landscape</b></p><p>For a company like NIO, the competitive landscape is of crucial importance. EVs are extremely “buzzy” products, and for this reason, the industry is seeing a lot of new entrants. Not only are there countless EV startups out there, but the established auto makers are getting in on the action too. <b>GM</b> (GM) and <b>Ford</b> (F) are rolling out their own EV offerings to compete with the all-electric players. So, this industry has a lot of competition.</p><p>In the EV space, NIO’s biggest competitors include:</p><ul><li><p>Tesla (TSLA)</p></li><li><p>Volkswagen (OTCPK:VWAGY)</p></li><li><p><b>BYD</b> (OTCPK:BYDDF)</p></li><li><p><b>Rivian</b> (RIVN)</p></li><li><p><b>Lucid</b> (LCID)</p></li></ul><p>NIO’s competition with Tesla and Volkswagen is already material. Both of those companies are already selling EVs in China, where NIO makes the vast majority of its sales. The competition with RIVN and LCID is more of a distant possibility. Rivian is still in its infancy, having delivered only 920 cars at the end of 2021, while Lucid is only selling to the U.S. market. LCID is backed by Chinese investors and is planning a Chinese factory, so it may enter the Chinese market eventually.</p><p>So, the “big three” that NIO competes with are Tesla, VW and BYD.</p><p>NIO is presently in third place in deliveries behind Tesla and VW. In 2021, Tesla delivered 936,000 vehicles, VW delivered 369,000. In the same period, NIO delivered 91,429. Its deliveries grew by 109% year-over-year. The growth rates for Tesla and VW were 97% and 100%, respectively. So NIO was last on volume but first on deliveries growth. That makes perfect sense. In economics, the law of diminishing marginal returns states that businesses reach a point where an extra dollar spent results in a smaller incremental gain in production. Tesla and VM, being larger than NIO, are more likely to be at diminishing returns than NIO is.</p><p>BYD also merits a brief mention. It manufactures a wide variety of electric vehicles, from buses and trucks to cars. This makes it less of a “head to head” competitor with NIO compared to Tesla, but it’s still worth mentioning. BYD mainly sells cars in China, so the car portion of its business undoubtedly competes head to head with NIO. If we include BYD’s PHEVs, it sold far more vehicles than NIO in 2021: 593,745 of them, to be specific. If we narrow it down to just BEVs, then BYD enjoys a smaller lead, with 320,000 sold in 2021. BYD also bests NIO on delivery growth, having upped its deliveries 231% year-over-year.</p><p><b>Product Development</b></p><p>As we’ve seen so far, NIO enjoys a solid place in its industry. It beats Tesla and VW on growth, but is behind BYD on both size and growth. It is well ahead of companies like Rivian and Lucid that are only just beginning to deliver vehicles. So, it is a middle-of-the-pack competitor.</p><p>Will it improve its market share in the future?</p><p>To answer that question, we need to look at NIO’s products. As mentioned previously, the EV industry is a competitive place, one where new entrants are always nipping at the incumbents’ heels. In such an industry, the quality of a company’s offerings is very important, as this determines its ability to win over customers who have other options.</p><p>Here’s what NIO’s lineup looks like today:</p><ul><li><p><b>The ET5 and ET7.</b> The flagship sedans. The ET5 is cheaper, but some say it travels further on one charge, due to its smaller size. NIO advertises a 1,000 kilometer range for both of these models but reviewers have noted that the ET5 seems to go further in real world use.</p></li><li><p><b>The EC6 and ES8.</b> These are both SUVs. The ES8 is a luxury SUV with a high price tag, the EC6 is a smaller and more affordable coupe SUV. The EC6 has the biggest range of NIO’s SUVs, at 615 kilometers.</p></li><li><p><b>The ES6.</b> A mid-size SUV with a range between that of the EC6 and ES8.</p></li></ul><p>The general theme here is that NIO’s smaller models have a bigger range while its larger and more luxurious ones have smaller ranges. This is different from Tesla, whose most expensive car (the Roadster) also has the best range. It seems that NIO is going for space and luxurious interiors on its higher end models, and range on its lower end ones. This positioning perhaps makes sense, as luxury car buyers are going for comfort more than performance. However, the big range edge that the sedans have over the SUVs would appear to make the latter less appealing to anyone wanting to travel long distances.</p><p><b>Recent Financials</b></p><p>As we’ve seen, NIO is an extremely fast-growing company with solid positioning in the luxury end of the Chinese EV market. It has all the ingredients for success. Is that translating to solid financials? To answer that question, we need to look at the most recent quarter’s earnings.</p><p>In Q4, NIO delivered:</p><ul><li><p>$1.55 billion in revenue, up 49% (beat by $20 million).</p></li><li><p>$266.7 billion in gross profit, up 28.8%.</p></li><li><p>A $383 million operating loss, up 162.5% from the same quarter a year before (in this case “up” means worse, as we’re talking about growth in losses).</p></li><li><p>$-0.16 in adjusted EPS, missed by $0.02.</p></li><li><p>25,034 vehicles shipped.</p></li></ul><p>Overall, it was a solid quarter in terms of revenue, but a disappointing one in terms of earnings. The earnings remained negative and the losses widened. The widening losses were attributed to the loss of regulatory credits and share-based compensation. Investors might want to see this company’s share-based compensation come down, as it helped drive bigger losses. On the other hand, when we look at the long term trend in losses, they seem to be getting smaller, so perhaps this quarter was a rare exception.</p><p><b>Risks and Challenges</b></p><p>As we’ve seen so far, NIO is a high-growth company with a solid competitive position. It is still losing money, and its EPS loss widened in the most recent quarter–though is shrinking on a full year basis. Because NIO’s net losses make up a small percentage of revenue, it looks like it could become profitable soon. Given all these mixed signals, NIO is a clear hold in my books. I’d neither buy nor short it, but I respect the longs’ thesis. Nevertheless, there are risks and challenges for both holders and shorts to be aware of.</p><p>Those long NIO stock primarily need to keep an eye on competition. Tesla is moving cars in China, the home-grown BYD is quite popular there already, European companies are moving in. It’s a competitive space, much like traditional automotives. So, NIO investors will want to look at how the company is differentiating itself from competitors. The ‘luxury’ thing certainly differentiates it from BYD, but Tesla is a different story.</p><p>Those short NIO should keep in mind the long term trends. The company’s revenue growth is still extremely strong. Its losses grew in the most recent quarter, but losses as a percentage of revenue are trending downward long term. It definitely looks like this company is approaching profitability. If it does swing profitable then the stock might enjoy a boost.</p><p>I’m not playing NIO one way or the other, but I’d prefer to go long than to short it, if I had to choose. The stock is relatively cheap and could swing profitable as soon as this year. Given its small market cap, it could move dramatically on such news. But we don’t know when such news will be forthcoming. So for me, this is a “wait and see” stock. I’d want to see at least a few quarters of positive earnings before buying it. But for those with higher risk tolerance than me, the post-earnings dip may be a great buying opportunity.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>NIO Stock: Mixed Earnings, Good Value</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\">\nNIO Stock: Mixed Earnings, Good Value\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-03-25 14:12 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4497715-nio-stock-q4-2021-earnings-mixed-good-value><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryNIO just released its fourth quarter earnings which beat on revenue but missed on adjusted EPS.I'm not the biggest fan of EV stocks, but I'd consider NIO a relatively good value in the space....</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4497715-nio-stock-q4-2021-earnings-mixed-good-value\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"NIO":"蔚来"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4497715-nio-stock-q4-2021-earnings-mixed-good-value","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5a36db9d73b4222bc376d24ccc48c8a4","article_id":"2222007132","content_text":"SummaryNIO just released its fourth quarter earnings which beat on revenue but missed on adjusted EPS.I'm not the biggest fan of EV stocks, but I'd consider NIO a relatively good value in the space.Its revenue growth is in the triple digits and its deliveries are approaching 100,000 cars per year.The stock is relatively cheap, at least by EV standards.In this article I make the case that NIO is a hold, as it has a mix of good and bad qualities.SimonSkafar/E+ via Getty ImagesNIO Inc (NYSE:NIO) is a true rarity among EV companies.

BYD mainly sells cars in China, so the car portion of its business undoubtedly competes head to head with NIO. If we include BYD’s PHEVs, it sold far more vehicles than NIO in 2021: 593,745 of them, to be specific. If we narrow it down to just BEVs, then BYD enjoys a smaller lead, with 320,000 sold in 2021. BYD also bests NIO on delivery growth, having upped its deliveries 231% year-over-year.Product DevelopmentAs we’ve seen so far, NIO enjoys a solid place in its industry. It beats Tesla and VW on growth, but is behind BYD on both size and growth. It is well ahead of companies like Rivian and Lucid that are only just beginning to deliver vehicles. So, it is a middle-of-the-pack competitor.Will it improve its market share in the future?To answer that question, we need to look at NIO’s products. As mentioned previously, the EV industry is a competitive place, one where new entrants are always nipping at the incumbents’ heels. In such an industry, the quality of a company’s offerings is very important, as this determines its ability to win over customers who have other options.Here’s what NIO’s lineup looks like today:The ET5 and ET7. The flagship sedans. The ET5 is cheaper, but some say it travels further on one charge, due to its smaller size. NIO advertises a 1,000 kilometer range for both of these models but reviewers have noted that the ET5 seems to go further in real world use.The EC6 and ES8. These are both SUVs. The ES8 is a luxury SUV with a high price tag, the EC6 is a smaller and more affordable coupe SUV. The EC6 has the biggest range of NIO’s SUVs, at 615 kilometers.The ES6. A mid-size SUV with a range between that of the EC6 and ES8.The general theme here is that NIO’s smaller models have a bigger range while its larger and more luxurious ones have smaller ranges. This is different from Tesla, whose most expensive car (the Roadster) also has the best range. It seems that NIO is going for space and luxurious interiors on its higher end models, and range on its lower end ones. This positioning perhaps makes sense, as luxury car buyers are going for comfort more than performance. However, the big range edge that the sedans have over the SUVs would appear to make the latter less appealing to anyone wanting to travel long distances.Recent FinancialsAs we’ve seen, NIO is an extremely fast-growing company with solid positioning in the luxury end of the Chinese EV market. It has all the ingredients for success. Is that translating to solid financials? To answer that question, we need to look at the most recent quarter’s earnings.In Q4, NIO delivered:$1.55 billion in revenue, up 49% (beat by $20 million).$266.7 billion in gross profit, up 28.8%.A $383 million operating loss, up 162.5% from the same quarter a year before (in this case “up” means worse, as we’re talking about growth in losses).$-0.16 in adjusted EPS, missed by $0.02.25,034 vehicles shipped.Overall, it was a solid quarter in terms of revenue, but a disappointing one in terms of earnings. The earnings remained negative and the losses widened. The widening losses were attributed to the loss of regulatory credits and share-based compensation. Investors might want to see this company’s share-based compensation come down, as it helped drive bigger losses. On the other hand, when we look at the long term trend in losses, they seem to be getting smaller, so perhaps this quarter was a rare exception.Risks and ChallengesAs we’ve seen so far, NIO is a high-growth company with a solid competitive position. It is still losing money, and its EPS loss widened in the most recent quarter–though is shrinking on a full year basis. Because NIO’s net losses make up a small percentage of revenue, it looks like it could become profitable soon. Given all these mixed signals, NIO is a clear hold in my books. I’d neither buy nor short it, but I respect the longs’ thesis. Nevertheless, there are risks and challenges for both holders and shorts to be aware of.Those long NIO stock primarily need to keep an eye on competition. Tesla is moving cars in China, the home-grown BYD is quite popular there already, European companies are moving in. It’s a competitive space, much like traditional automotives. So, NIO investors will want to look at how the company is differentiating itself from competitors. The ‘luxury’ thing certainly differentiates it from BYD, but Tesla is a different story.Those short NIO should keep in mind the long term trends. The company’s revenue growth is still extremely strong. Its losses grew in the most recent quarter, but losses as a percentage of revenue are trending downward long term. It definitely looks like this company is approaching profitability. If it does swing profitable then the stock might enjoy a boost.I’m not playing NIO one way or the other, but I’d prefer to go long than to short it, if I had to choose. The stock is relatively cheap and could swing profitable as soon as this year. Given its small market cap, it could move dramatically on such news. But we don’t know when such news will be forthcoming. So for me, this is a “wait and see” stock. I’d want to see at least a few quarters of positive earnings before buying it. But for those with higher risk tolerance than me, the post-earnings dip may be a great buying opportunity.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":250,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9037741145,"gmtCreate":1648190723480,"gmtModify":1676534315333,"author":{"id":"3581983815933718","authorId":"3581983815933718","name":"LioLCK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/957f97dddbf2fa1647de2a57e0922b4b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581983815933718","idStr":"3581983815933718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9037741145","repostId":"2222007132","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2222007132","pubTimestamp":1648188758,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2222007132?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-25 14:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"NIO Stock: Mixed Earnings, Good Value","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2222007132","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"SummaryNIO just released its fourth quarter earnings which beat on revenue but missed on adjusted EP","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>NIO just released its fourth quarter earnings which beat on revenue but missed on adjusted EPS.</li><li>I&#39;m not the biggest fan of EV stocks, but I&#39;d consider NIO a relatively good value in the space.</li><li>Its revenue growth is in the triple digits and its deliveries are approaching 100,000 cars per year.</li><li>The stock is relatively cheap, at least by EV standards.</li><li>In this article I make the case that NIO is a hold, as it has a mix of good and bad qualities.</li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/51026759fca43e36f173766ad3463870\" tg-width=\"750\" tg-height=\"500\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>SimonSkafar/E+ via Getty Images</span></p><p><b>NIO Inc</b> (NYSE:NIO) is a true rarity among EV companies. With positive free cash flow and a single-digit price to sales ratio, it’s the closest thing to a value play you’ll find among EVs. That’s not to say that it IS a value play. Trading at 93 times operating cash flow, it certainly isn’t super cheap–nor is it GAAP profitable just yet. But it is inching ever closer to profitability. In a space where there are few true value plays, stocks like NIO are as close as you can get. So, NIO may be an attractive play for investors who are a little too fundamentals-oriented for the average EV stock.</p><p>Shortly before this article published, NIO released its fourth quarter earnings, which beat on revenue but missed on EPS. Both the revenue beat and earnings miss were pretty small: revenue of $1.55 billion was ahead by $20 million; EPS of $-0.16 was off by two cents. Markets took the earnings poorly, as NIO stock sank after hours.</p><p>But the fact still remains: NIO is one of the few EV companies out there that’s really delivering. Its quarterly vehicle deliveries approach 100,000 on an annualized basis, and it’s already doing over $1.5 billion in quarterly revenue. And the deliveries are increasing each and every single quarter. In the third quarter, NIO delivered 24,439 vehicles, up 100% year-over-year. In January alone, it delivered 9,652 vehicles, up 33% year-over-year. In both of these periods, growth in deliveries was strong. The January figure is particularly important as it indicates NIO will surpass 100,000 deliveries for the full year–a key milestone.</p><p>In 2021, <b>Tesla</b> (TSLA) delivered just under 1 million vehicles. In the same period, <b>Volkswagen</b> (OTCPK:VWAGY) delivered 369,000. These are the kinds of numbers the top players in EVs are putting out. With NIO delivering about 100,000 and growing its deliveries at anywhere from 33% to 100% depending on what period you’re looking at, it could reach this level in just a few years.</p><p>So, NIO is a fast-growing company. In this respect, it’s not different from other EV names. The EV industry is growing at about 24% CAGR, so naturally, a lot of companies in the space have strong growth. What does make NIO a little different is its modest valuation. At today’s prices, NIO trades at just 6.5 times sales and 8 times book value. If you dispute my characterization of those multiples as being “low,” remember that this is an EV company we’re talking about. Even the relatively mature companies in this space usually trade at over 10 times sales. Throw NIO’s 178% three-year CAGR revenue growth on top of its modest multiples, and we may have a true GARP play on our hands here.</p><p>With all that said, I have not invested any money in this stock personally. I think it has a lot of potential, but it isn’t quite at the level of maturity where a complete valuation analysis can be done on it. According to the company’s cash flow statements, it only achieved positive free cash flow (“FCF”) in 2020. So we don’t have a long history of cash flows or earnings to work with here. The revenue trend certainly suggests that the future is bright, but it’s tough to gauge precisely how much the stock is worth. For this reason, I rate the stock a “hold,” as it looks promising but is subject to some uncertainty.</p><p><b>Competitive Landscape</b></p><p>For a company like NIO, the competitive landscape is of crucial importance. EVs are extremely “buzzy” products, and for this reason, the industry is seeing a lot of new entrants. Not only are there countless EV startups out there, but the established auto makers are getting in on the action too. <b>GM</b> (GM) and <b>Ford</b> (F) are rolling out their own EV offerings to compete with the all-electric players. So, this industry has a lot of competition.</p><p>In the EV space, NIO’s biggest competitors include:</p><ul><li><p>Tesla (TSLA)</p></li><li><p>Volkswagen (OTCPK:VWAGY)</p></li><li><p><b>BYD</b> (OTCPK:BYDDF)</p></li><li><p><b>Rivian</b> (RIVN)</p></li><li><p><b>Lucid</b> (LCID)</p></li></ul><p>NIO’s competition with Tesla and Volkswagen is already material. Both of those companies are already selling EVs in China, where NIO makes the vast majority of its sales. The competition with RIVN and LCID is more of a distant possibility. Rivian is still in its infancy, having delivered only 920 cars at the end of 2021, while Lucid is only selling to the U.S. market. LCID is backed by Chinese investors and is planning a Chinese factory, so it may enter the Chinese market eventually.</p><p>So, the “big three” that NIO competes with are Tesla, VW and BYD.</p><p>NIO is presently in third place in deliveries behind Tesla and VW. In 2021, Tesla delivered 936,000 vehicles, VW delivered 369,000. In the same period, NIO delivered 91,429. Its deliveries grew by 109% year-over-year. The growth rates for Tesla and VW were 97% and 100%, respectively. So NIO was last on volume but first on deliveries growth. That makes perfect sense. In economics, the law of diminishing marginal returns states that businesses reach a point where an extra dollar spent results in a smaller incremental gain in production. Tesla and VM, being larger than NIO, are more likely to be at diminishing returns than NIO is.</p><p>BYD also merits a brief mention. It manufactures a wide variety of electric vehicles, from buses and trucks to cars. This makes it less of a “head to head” competitor with NIO compared to Tesla, but it’s still worth mentioning. BYD mainly sells cars in China, so the car portion of its business undoubtedly competes head to head with NIO.

It manufactures a wide variety of electric vehicles, from buses and trucks to cars. This makes it less of a “head to head” competitor with NIO compared to Tesla, but it’s still worth mentioning. BYD mainly sells cars in China, so the car portion of its business undoubtedly competes head to head with NIO. If we include BYD’s PHEVs, it sold far more vehicles than NIO in 2021: 593,745 of them, to be specific. If we narrow it down to just BEVs, then BYD enjoys a smaller lead, with 320,000 sold in 2021. BYD also bests NIO on delivery growth, having upped its deliveries 231% year-over-year.Product DevelopmentAs we’ve seen so far, NIO enjoys a solid place in its industry. It beats Tesla and VW on growth, but is behind BYD on both size and growth. It is well ahead of companies like Rivian and Lucid that are only just beginning to deliver vehicles. So, it is a middle-of-the-pack competitor.Will it improve its market share in the future?To answer that question, we need to look at NIO’s products. As mentioned previously, the EV industry is a competitive place, one where new entrants are always nipping at the incumbents’ heels. In such an industry, the quality of a company’s offerings is very important, as this determines its ability to win over customers who have other options.Here’s what NIO’s lineup looks like today:The ET5 and ET7. The flagship sedans. The ET5 is cheaper, but some say it travels further on one charge, due to its smaller size. NIO advertises a 1,000 kilometer range for both of these models but reviewers have noted that the ET5 seems to go further in real world use.The EC6 and ES8. These are both SUVs. The ES8 is a luxury SUV with a high price tag, the EC6 is a smaller and more affordable coupe SUV. The EC6 has the biggest range of NIO’s SUVs, at 615 kilometers.The ES6. A mid-size SUV with a range between that of the EC6 and ES8.The general theme here is that NIO’s smaller models have a bigger range while its larger and more luxurious ones have smaller ranges. This is different from Tesla, whose most expensive car (the Roadster) also has the best range. It seems that NIO is going for space and luxurious interiors on its higher end models, and range on its lower end ones. This positioning perhaps makes sense, as luxury car buyers are going for comfort more than performance. However, the big range edge that the sedans have over the SUVs would appear to make the latter less appealing to anyone wanting to travel long distances.Recent FinancialsAs we’ve seen, NIO is an extremely fast-growing company with solid positioning in the luxury end of the Chinese EV market. It has all the ingredients for success. Is that translating to solid financials? To answer that question, we need to look at the most recent quarter’s earnings.In Q4, NIO delivered:$1.55 billion in revenue, up 49% (beat by $20 million).$266.7 billion in gross profit, up 28.8%.A $383 million operating loss, up 162.5% from the same quarter a year before (in this case “up” means worse, as we’re talking about growth in losses).$-0.16 in adjusted EPS, missed by $0.02.25,034 vehicles shipped.Overall, it was a solid quarter in terms of revenue, but a disappointing one in terms of earnings. The earnings remained negative and the losses widened. The widening losses were attributed to the loss of regulatory credits and share-based compensation. Investors might want to see this company’s share-based compensation come down, as it helped drive bigger losses. On the other hand, when we look at the long term trend in losses, they seem to be getting smaller, so perhaps this quarter was a rare exception.Risks and ChallengesAs we’ve seen so far, NIO is a high-growth company with a solid competitive position. It is still losing money, and its EPS loss widened in the most recent quarter–though is shrinking on a full year basis. Because NIO’s net losses make up a small percentage of revenue, it looks like it could become profitable soon. Given all these mixed signals, NIO is a clear hold in my books. I’d neither buy nor short it, but I respect the longs’ thesis. Nevertheless, there are risks and challenges for both holders and shorts to be aware of.Those long NIO stock primarily need to keep an eye on competition. Tesla is moving cars in China, the home-grown BYD is quite popular there already, European companies are moving in. It’s a competitive space, much like traditional automotives. So, NIO investors will want to look at how the company is differentiating itself from competitors. The ‘luxury’ thing certainly differentiates it from BYD, but Tesla is a different story.Those short NIO should keep in mind the long term trends. The company’s revenue growth is still extremely strong. Its losses grew in the most recent quarter, but losses as a percentage of revenue are trending downward long term. It definitely looks like this company is approaching profitability. If it does swing profitable then the stock might enjoy a boost.I’m not playing NIO one way or the other, but I’d prefer to go long than to short it, if I had to choose. The stock is relatively cheap and could swing profitable as soon as this year. Given its small market cap, it could move dramatically on such news. But we don’t know when such news will be forthcoming. So for me, this is a “wait and see” stock. I’d want to see at least a few quarters of positive earnings before buying it. But for those with higher risk tolerance than me, the post-earnings dip may be a great buying opportunity.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":265,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9934878089,"gmtCreate":1663226925642,"gmtModify":1676537232286,"author":{"id":"3581983815933718","authorId":"3581983815933718","name":"LioLCK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/957f97dddbf2fa1647de2a57e0922b4b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581983815933718","idStr":"3581983815933718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$</a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","text":"$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9934878089","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":301,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9017191863,"gmtCreate":1649753167844,"gmtModify":1676534565084,"author":{"id":"3581983815933718","authorId":"3581983815933718","name":"LioLCK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/957f97dddbf2fa1647de2a57e0922b4b","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581983815933718","idStr":"3581983815933718"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","listText":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","text":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9017191863","repostId":"9016476123","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":9016476123,"gmtCreate":1649229403658,"gmtModify":1676534474180,"author":{"id":"3527667667103859","authorId":"3527667667103859","name":"TigerEvents","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c266ef25181ace18bec1262357bbe1a8","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3527667667103859","idStr":"3527667667103859"},"themes":[],"title":"🏆【GAME】Hunting Eggs for Extra Saving!","htmlText":"Tiger has prepared some Easter gifts for you, please&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.tigerbrokers.com.sg/activity/market/2022/easter/\" target=\"_blank\">click&nbsp;here</a>&nbsp;to check them out!Easter can still be a bonus-boosting.
