The Chinese agency said last week that it would tap its giant oil reserves to “ease the pressure of rising raw material prices.” China is facing the surging cost of commodities, not just for crude, but coal and natural gas, while inflation is rapidly rising.</p>\n<p>Companies participating in the auction need to comply with national refinery industry policy and have a sufficient import quota, the agency said.

Grades include Qatar Marine, Forties, Oman, Murban and Upper Zakum, which are in tanks at Dalian and were put into storage last year, the agency said.\nBrent oil dipped immediately after the announcement, before recovering to trade near $74 a barrel. The Chinese agency said last week that it would tap its giant oil reserves to “ease the pressure of rising raw material prices.” China is facing the surging cost of commodities, not just for crude, but coal and natural gas, while inflation is rapidly rising.\nCompanies participating in the auction need to comply with national refinery industry policy and have a sufficient import quota, the agency said. Buyers should also have a good credit record and the crude purchased should be for its own use, not for resale. The volume being sold is less than what China typically imports in one day.\nChina has built up a 220 million barrel reserve of the commodity over the past decade, according to Energy Aspects Ltd. The buffer differs from strategic petroleum reserves, known as SPR, held in the U.S. and Europe, which are only tapped during supply outages and wars.

A figure under 10% is generally considered a ‘low float’ stock which can be subject to significant price volatility.\nPer the firm’s most recent regulatory filing, it plans to use the net proceeds as follows:\n\n Approximately $45.0 million to hire additional sales and marketing personnel;\n\n\n approximately $25.0 million to fund product development and research and development activities; and\n\n\n the remainder for working capital and other general corporate purposes.\n\n\n Based on our operating plan, we currently believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, anticipated revenue and available debt financing arrangements, together with the net proceeds from this offering, will be sufficient to meet our capital requirements and fund our operations through at least the next 12 months from the date of this prospectus.\n\nManagement’s presentation of the company roadshow is not available.\nRegarding outstanding legal proceedings, management has disclosed no legal claims or proceedings against the firm of a material nature.\nListed bookrunners of the IPO are BofA Securities, Goldman Sachs, Cowen, Guggenheim Securities and SVB Leerink.\nValuation Metrics\nBelow is a table of the firm’s relevant capitalization and valuation metrics at IPO, excluding the effects of underwriter options:\nAs a reference, a potential partial public comparable would be Teleflex; shown below is a comparison of their primary valuation metrics:\nCommentary\nPRCT seeks public investment to fund the commercial ramp up of its AquaBeam Robotic System for use in urologic surgery with an initial focus on treating benign prostate hyperplasia.\nThe firm’s financials show strong revenue growth from a small base but high operating losses and cash use as the company is in the early stages of its commercialization process.\nFree cash flow for the twelve months ended June 30, 2021, was negative ($52.7 million).\nThe IPO proceeds will likely only last the firm 12 months, so PRCT will need to go out for more capital soon, either diluting shareholders with a new equity sale or taking on debt.\nSales and Marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenue have dropped as revenue has begun to ramp up and its Sales and Marketing efficiency rate rose to 0.6x in the most recent six-month reporting period.\nThe market opportunity for treating benign prostate hyperplasia is large and expected to double in size between 2017 and 2025.\nBofA Securities is the lead left underwriter and IPOs led by the firm over the last 12-month period have generated an average return of 13.5% since their IPO. This is a mid-tier performance for all major underwriters during the period.\nThe primary risk to the company’s outlook is the slow sales cycle and uptake of the firm’s system, which may be perceived as more complex than handing out a prescription pill for patient use.\nAs for valuation, management is seeking a Price/Sales multiple of 45x, which is extremely high and appears to be based on expected future growth.\nWhile interested investors may wish to bet on that high future growth enabling the company to grow into its valuation, the IPO is a bit pricey for me.\nExpected IPO Pricing Date: September 14, 2021.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":485,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":881740364,"gmtCreate":1631409131158,"gmtModify":1676530541742,"author":{"id":"3582002557827165","authorId":"3582002557827165","authorIdStr":"3582002557827165","name":"4c7ea105","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582002557827165"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Gd","listText":"Gd","text":"Gd","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/881740364","repostId":"2166371940","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":676,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":883286857,"gmtCreate":1631244246579,"gmtModify":1676530507420,"author":{"id":"3582002557827165","authorId":"3582002557827165","authorIdStr":"3582002557827165","name":"4c7ea105","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582002557827165"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Gd","listText":"Gd","text":"Gd","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/883286857","repostId":"1151224116","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1151224116","pubTimestamp":1631242782,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1151224116?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-10 10:59","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Walmart to End Quarterly Bonuses for Store Workers","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1151224116","media":"The Wall Street Journal","summary":"Retailer says the benefit, part of potential compensation of hundreds of thousands of workers, would","content":"<p>Retailer says the benefit, part of potential compensation of hundreds of thousands of workers, would be rolled into their hourly wages</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a92575205f758c84172cc018417145d1\" tg-width=\"1290\" tg-height=\"860\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Bonuses based on store performance have been part of Walmart store workers’ potential compensation for decades.</span></p>\n<p>Walmart&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;is phasing out its decades-old quarterly bonuses for store workers, according to the company, as it&nbsp;implements hourly wage increases&nbsp;for hundreds of thousands of its employees.</p>\n<p>Walmart said it would scrap the benefit, dubbed “MyShare,” at the end of the company’s fiscal year on Jan. 31, 2022, according to a memo sent to staff discussing coming wage increases. “We are rolling MyShare into associates’ base pay going forward,” the memo said.</p>\n<p>A Walmart spokeswoman said most workers say their hourly wage is the most important part of their pay, and that folding the bonus into wages increases the amount of consistent, predictable income.

By the end of this month, Walmart workers will earn an average of $16.40 an hour, the company said last week.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":349,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":880264123,"gmtCreate":1631060631162,"gmtModify":1676530454884,"author":{"id":"3582002557827165","authorId":"3582002557827165","authorIdStr":"3582002557827165","name":"4c7ea105","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582002557827165"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Gd","listText":"Gd","text":"Gd","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/880264123","repostId":"1129020034","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1129020034","pubTimestamp":1631059317,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1129020034?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-08 08:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple Car Chief’s Departure Puts Its Next Big Thing in Doubt","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1129020034","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Doug Field leaves Apple after three years running car project\nAutomotive effort has been mired by se","content":"<ul>\n <li>Doug Field leaves Apple after three years running car project</li>\n <li>Automotive effort has been mired by setbacks for years</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The abrupt departure of&nbsp;Apple Inc.’s top automotive executive imperils its efforts to develop a self-driving car, a project that’s been seen as one of the tech giant’s biggest bets.</p>\n<p>Doug Field, a&nbsp;Tesla Inc.&nbsp;veteran who joined Apple in 2018 to head up its car project, left Tuesday to become&nbsp;Ford Motor Co.’s chief advanced technology officer.

Other majors added ~0.6% with tech, household &amp; personal goods and insurance doing much of the heavy lifting. Real estate is the only sector in the red. S&amp;P futures follow Europe, rising 0.2%. Luxury firms LVMH, Kering and Hermes led gains on France’s CAC 40 Index, with Bryan Garnier noting that China’s “common prosperity” goal won’t hurt all luxury companies the same way while helping expand the country’s middle class -- a positive overall for the sector; LVMH shares were up 2% as of 12:20pm in Paris while Kering, the owner of Gucci, gains 1.6%; Hermes gained 1.8%. LVMH shares had shed 7% in August, as investors jumped out of the expensive luxury sector amid worries about the new policy in China, a crucial growth engine for the industry. “Common prosperity” policy “does not mean ‘killing’ rich people,” Bryan Garnier analyst Loic Morvan writes in a note. Elsewhere, here are some of the biggest European movers today:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Norsk Hydro shares jump as much as 5% to the highest level since July 2008 after the aluminum price climbed because of political unrest in Guinea.</li>\n <li>Scor shares gain as much as 3.4% after JPMorgan raised its recommendation on the stock to overweight from neutral.</li>\n <li>Leonardo shares rise as much as 2.3% after the group’s CEO said on Friday that the company plans to proceed with the IPO of its U.S. unit DRS “as soon as conditions allow.”</li>\n <li>Dechra Pharmaceuticals shares fall as much as 9.5% after the company posted results that met estimates. Stifel cuts its rating to hold, noting little upside in the stock.</li>\n <li>EQT AB shares drop as much as 6.4%, seeing $2 billion wiped off the company’s market value after analysts at Nordea Bank cut their recommendation on the stock to sell.</li>\n <li>Spie shares lose as much as 4.7% after the company said it’s submitting an offer to buy Engie’s Equans unit and plans to use a combination of debt and equity to fund the transaction.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Investors were also still assessing the fallout from the September payrolls report, which showed a much smaller increase in jobs than expected, at just 235,000, but also a sharp pickup in wages, hinting at stagflation. The latter was enough to nudge longer-dated Treasury yields higher and steepen the yield curve, even as markets speculated over whether the Federal Reserve might not start tapering until later than previously thought.</p>\n<p>“Expectations of a delay in Fed tapering as well as a new administration in Japan is supporting equity markets and we expect this to continue,” said&nbsp;Sebastien Galy, senior macro strategist at Nordea Investment Funds. “Buy-on-dip is as robust as ever, taking negative news such as U.S. nonfarm payrolls as good news which is typical of an advanced carry trade.”</p>\n<p>Investors “are now already betting on the Fed delaying tapering,” Pierre Veyret, a technical analyst at ActivTrades, wrote in emailed comments.<b>“Even if the prospect of sustained monetary support is helping to lift market sentiment, today’s session is likely to stay muted but technical,”</b>especially given the holiday in the U.S. and lack of macro data releases, he said.</p>\n<p>“Employment decelerated sharply in August, with little indication of a pickup in labour supply,” said Barclays economist Jonathan Millar. “This puts the Fed in a quandary as it balances risks of a sharp demand slowdown against those of tight supply and inflation...<b>We still expect the Fed to signal tapering in September, but now expect it to begin in December not November. QE will likely end by the middle of 2022.</b>”</p>\n<p>Earlier in the session, Asian stocks rose, boosted by a rally in Japan on prospects of better economic and pandemic policies under a new leader. Chinese shares also jumped. MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose about 0.6% overnight to the highest since late July, while the broader MSCI Asia Pacific Index climbed as much as 0.8%, on track to close at a two-month high, as communication services and technology shares led the advance.&nbsp; Gains in Asia were led by Japan, where the equity benchmark rose to a 31-year high on wagers for new economic policies once Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga steps down.<b>Japan’s Nikkei gained 1.8% to a five-month top, extending a rally on hopes a new prime minister there would bring added fiscal spending (and thus even more debt-monetizing QE).</b>&nbsp; Hopes of fresh stimulus from Beijing through fiscal and monetary policy lifted Chinese blue chips 1.9%.</p>\n<p>Japan’s Nikkei 225 gauge was among top-performing benchmarks, while the Topix extended gains from a more than 30-year high after Japan’s prime minister’s exit was announced Friday. “As Suga’s rising unpopularity partly stems from a perceived inability on his part to manage the Covid-19 pandemic, the new leadership will have to address this issue,” Jun Rong Yeap, a market strategist at IG Asia, wrote in a note. “This seems to bring high hopes of further economic stimulus to aid businesses and also bolstering of healthcare systems to tackle rising Covid-19 cases.”</p>\n<p>Chinese stocks rose overall, with the Hang Seng Tech Index ending the day higher. Tencent shares were among the top contributors to the Asian benchmark’s rise as Citigroup said its to-be-launched League of Legends Mobile game could buoy sentiment about China’s gaming industry. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing also jumped as Goldman Sachs raised its price target on expectations of a price hike for wafers. Sentiment toward Asian stocks has improved since late August on optimism of gradual tapering by the Federal Reserve. Disappointing U.S. payroll growth data on Friday reinforced that view, as the economy added 235,000 jobs in August - the smallest increase in seven months.</p>\n<p>In rates, the rise in U.S. 10-year yields to 1.33% limited some of the pressure on the dollar from the poor payrolls print, though its index still touched a one-month low before steadying at 92.207. Cash Treasurys were closed on Monday. Fixed income was also quiet in Europe ahead of this week’s risk events. Bunds bear flatten a touch, gilts bull steepen; both settling off extremes of the morning’s trade. Italy leads a modest tightening in peripheral spreads. Long-end Spain lags after reports the sovereign intends to raise 5 billion euros from a debut green debt deal.</p>\n<p>In FX, the dollar was changing hands versus the yen at 109.90, while the euro stood at $1.1868 after hitting a five-week top of $1.1908 on Friday. currencies traded in a tight range with a hint of USD outperformance. AUD, SEK and NZD are at the bottom of the G-10 scoreboard. Indonesia’s rupiah and the Thai baht led most emerging Asian currencies higher as gains in regional equities boosted risk appetite. The Taiwan dollar climbed, touching the strongest level since early June. Indonesia’s rupiah advances for a third day, aided by foreign fund inflows into the nation’s bonds and equities.</p>\n<p>The European Central Bank holds its policy meeting this week<b>and a number of policy hawks have been calling for a step back in the bank’s huge asset-buying programme, though President Christine Lagarde has sounded more dovish.</b>Euro zone sovereign bond yields barely budged on Monday. In early trade, Germany’s benchmark 10-year Bund yield was steady at -0.36%. “We expect the ECB to announce a reduced pace of Q4 PEPP (pandemic emergency purchase programme) at its September meeting on the back of easier financial conditions,” said analysts at TD Securities. “All other policy levers are likely to be left on hold, with inflation forecasts revised sharply up this year and next. Communication risks are high, and Lagarde will want to avoid sounding overly hawkish, instead emphasising ‘persistence’.”</p>\n<p>In commodities, oil slid after Saudi Arabia slashed prices of all crude grades to Asian customers, while leaving prices to northwestern Europe and the United States steady. While futures rebounded from Asia’s lows, WTI remains ~0.9% lower but recovers above $68.50; Brent returns back below $72 after a short-lived bounce.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4cc48cc5c9158bde53dfa6192ace2850\" tg-width=\"1259\" tg-height=\"690\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>The prospect of a later start to Fed tapering proved only fleetingly positive for non-yielding gold, which stood at $1,825 an ounce, having reached its highest since mid-June at $1,833.80.

My wife is hosting a “he’s finally gone back to the office” party at home. Talking of parties we hosted a huge children’s party for the twins 4th birthday on Saturday. Given the lockdowns of the last year we wanted to do something special but boy was it stressful. Indeed I’m still recovering from having 70 screaming kids running loose and shouting in my ears. Good preparation for my first “live” team meeting back.</p>\n<p>The champagne corks might be about to go off in the offices of the more hawkish European member states’ central banks this week as an important ECB meeting (Thursday) will be the main highlight. They could use it to announce the start of the end of the PEPP (more later). Before that though, today is a US holiday (Labor Day) with tomorrow and Wednesday Rosh Hashanah (Jewish New Year). So the week will likely get off to a slow start.</p>\n<p>Elsewhere we’ll get monetary policy decisions from Australia (tomorrow), Canada (Wednesday), and Russia (Friday), and prior reports from Bloomberg have suggested that President Biden could decide who the next Fed Chair is from around this week. In terms of other data, it’ll be worth keeping an eye on the German ZEW (tomorrow), US JOLTS (Wednesday), China CPI/PPI (Thursday) and US PPI (Friday).</p>\n<p>The ECB meeting on Thursday is likely the most important event though. At this meeting, the Governing Council are due to conduct a joint assessment of financing conditions and the outlook for inflation, which will be the basis for a recalibration of the pace of PEPP net purchases. The big question for investors will be whether the ECB slows down these purchases, and recent comments by Chief Economist Lane implied that the hurdle to decelerating purchases might be lower than the market had assumed, as he played down the broader significance of a deceleration. Furthermore, we’ve also had the flash CPI estimate that’s showed inflation was running at +3.0% in August, the highest level in nearly a decade. In their preview (link here), our European economists are of the view that an announcement of slower purchases is slightly more likely at this meeting than in December. So it could be a taper week.</p>\n<p>Elsewhere it’ll be interesting to see what the Fed speakers make of Friday’s payrolls report. NY President Williams' (dove) has a speech on the economic outlook on Wednesday. Dallas' Kaplan (hawk / non-voter) talks on Wednesday and he has been a proponent of a September taper so will he wobble? Elsewhere Cleveland's Mester (hawk / non-voter) also talks on Friday.</p>\n<p>Friday's jobs report had something for everyone. Weak payrolls but signs of supply constraints in the details. The headline (235k vs. 1053k last month including revisions) and private (243k vs. 798k) payrolls were below the consensus of 733k and 610k, respectively. It seems the Fed are disproportionately focused on this headline number but there was strength elsewhere. Both the headline U-3 (5.2% vs. 5.4%) and U-6 (8.8% vs. 9.2%) rates improved amidst a 509k gain in employment and 318k decline in unemployment. In addition, the prime-age (25-54) employment-to-population ratio improved a couple of tenths to 78% and prime-age participation held steady at 81.8%. Average earnings were at +4.3% against +3.9% expected. Perhaps this explains why 10 year yields ended the day around +4bps higher even with the substantial payrolls miss. It may also tell us a bit more about the positioning of the market now. We had many days of strong data in the early summer while rates rallied hard. The technicals back then were phenomenal and the market short. The technicals are now far less strong.</p>\n<p>We’ll get an early chance to see an alternative view of the labour market with Wednesday's JOLTS report even if it refers to July. This report has shown great tightness in labour markets of late with quits rates around record highs and vacancy yields at records low. Elsewhere on employment, Thursday's jobless claims will be interesting with Federal UI benefits ending this week for all states. As such we could see a bigger decline in initial claims, though such a fall may wait for another week. As of mid-August, there were still 9.2mn people collecting either PUA or PEUC, most of whom will lose all income support in the coming weeks. While this may provide some relief with respect to the labor shortage it could also leave some light on income which may impact consumption.</p>\n<p>Back to central banks the most interesting outside of the ECB will be the RBA tomorrow where our economist (link here) is expecting that they will reverse their taper decision, and announce that they’ll continue to purchase government bonds at the current average pace of A$5bn per week, rather than tapering to A$4bn per week.</p>\n<p>Asian markets have started the week on the front foot with the Nikkei (+1.80%), Hang Seng (+0.51%), Shanghai Comp (+1.02%) and India’s Nifty (+0.47%) all gaining ground. The Kospi (-0.04%) is flattish. US and Euro Futures are pretty flat. Elsewhere, Brent crude oil prices are down -1.12% after Saudi Arabia slashed crude prices for Asian buyers, raising the prospect of competition between OPEC+ producers to gain/maintain market share.</p>\n<p>Turning to the latest on the pandemic, Italy’s Public Administration Minister Renato Brunetta said that the country will decide by the end of September whether vaccines will become mandatory for all people aged 12 and over. The law will be passed if the country hasn’t reached a vaccination level between 80% and 90%. Here in the UK, the government will decide by the end of September on whether to make it mandatory to provide vaccine certification for entry to large venues where infection risk may be higher. The UK Vaccines Minister Nadhim Zahawi further said that the government hasn’t yet decided on whether to roll out vaccines to healthy 12- to 15-year-olds, but if the move does go ahead, then parental consent would be needed.</p>\n<p>Recapping last week now and global markets saw some divergence as ECB members grew more hawkish and Fed officials stuck to their more dovish tones, with economic data partially reinforcing both views. US equities finished the week just off their highs with the S&amp;P 500 just worse than unchanged (-0.03%) on Friday but finishing up +0.58% over the course of the week. There was a shift to defensives and growth stocks with the NASDAQ gaining +1.55% last week (+0.21% Friday) while cyclicals, such as US banks (-3.69%), were on the back foot. European equities, which are more cyclically focused, underperformed as the STOXX 600 ended the week marginally (-0.09%) lower after Friday’s -0.56% loss.</p>\n<p>The divergent central bank tones was most apparent in sovereign debt performance. US 10yr Treasury yields ended the week up +1.5bps, most of that coming on Friday’s +3.9bp gain despite a weaker-than-expected employment report as markets looked at other aspects of the report and ahead to the upcoming supply outlook after the holiday weekend. On the other hand, hawkish comment ahead of the ECB meeting saw bond yields in Europe move higher across much of the continent, with those on 10yr bunds (+6.2bps) reaching their highest level in over 6 weeks. Peripheral bonds in southern Europe sold off similarly, with 10yr Italian (+7.4bps), Spanish (+4.2bps), Portuguese (+5.0bps), and Greek (+8.9bps) yields all climbing.</p>\n<p>Outside of the employment report on Friday, global composite PMIs for August slowed from the previous reading, but remained in strong expansionary territory in Europe and the US. The final Euro area composite PMI was down 0.5pts from the initial reading at 59.0, while Germany’s figure fell 0.6pts to 60.0. Meanwhile the US saw the composite PMI stay at 55.4, which is the lowest reading in eight months as the pace of growth seems to have definitively peaked back in May. The US ISM services PMI fell 2.4pts to 61.7 last month while the commentary continues to highlight supply chain disturbances and labour shortages. Finally, Euro Area retail sales for July showed a -2.3% slowdown (0.0% expected), after the previous month was revised up 0.3pp to 1.8%. The drop is reflective of the surge in cases at that time due to the delta variant.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Futures Rise, Europe And China Bounce With US Closed For Holiday</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;

The latter was enough to nudge longer-dated Treasury yields higher and steepen the yield curve, even as markets speculated over whether the Federal Reserve might not start tapering until later than previously thought.\n“Expectations of a delay in Fed tapering as well as a new administration in Japan is supporting equity markets and we expect this to continue,” said Sebastien Galy, senior macro strategist at Nordea Investment Funds. “Buy-on-dip is as robust as ever, taking negative news such as U.S. nonfarm payrolls as good news which is typical of an advanced carry trade.”\nInvestors “are now already betting on the Fed delaying tapering,” Pierre Veyret, a technical analyst at ActivTrades, wrote in emailed comments.“Even if the prospect of sustained monetary support is helping to lift market sentiment, today’s session is likely to stay muted but technical,”especially given the holiday in the U.S. and lack of macro data releases, he said.\n“Employment decelerated sharply in August, with little indication of a pickup in labour supply,” said Barclays economist Jonathan Millar. “This puts the Fed in a quandary as it balances risks of a sharp demand slowdown against those of tight supply and inflation...We still expect the Fed to signal tapering in September, but now expect it to begin in December not November. QE will likely end by the middle of 2022.”\nEarlier in the session, Asian stocks rose, boosted by a rally in Japan on prospects of better economic and pandemic policies under a new leader. Chinese shares also jumped. MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose about 0.6% overnight to the highest since late July, while the broader MSCI Asia Pacific Index climbed as much as 0.8%, on track to close at a two-month high, as communication services and technology shares led the advance.  Gains in Asia were led by Japan, where the equity benchmark rose to a 31-year high on wagers for new economic policies once Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga steps down.Japan’s Nikkei gained 1.8% to a five-month top, extending a rally on hopes a new prime minister there would bring added fiscal spending (and thus even more debt-monetizing QE).  Hopes of fresh stimulus from Beijing through fiscal and monetary policy lifted Chinese blue chips 1.9%.\nJapan’s Nikkei 225 gauge was among top-performing benchmarks, while the Topix extended gains from a more than 30-year high after Japan’s prime minister’s exit was announced Friday. “As Suga’s rising unpopularity partly stems from a perceived inability on his part to manage the Covid-19 pandemic, the new leadership will have to address this issue,” Jun Rong Yeap, a market strategist at IG Asia, wrote in a note. “This seems to bring high hopes of further economic stimulus to aid businesses and also bolstering of healthcare systems to tackle rising Covid-19 cases.”\nChinese stocks rose overall, with the Hang Seng Tech Index ending the day higher. Tencent shares were among the top contributors to the Asian benchmark’s rise as Citigroup said its to-be-launched League of Legends Mobile game could buoy sentiment about China’s gaming industry. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing also jumped as Goldman Sachs raised its price target on expectations of a price hike for wafers. Sentiment toward Asian stocks has improved since late August on optimism of gradual tapering by the Federal Reserve. Disappointing U.S. payroll growth data on Friday reinforced that view, as the economy added 235,000 jobs in August - the smallest increase in seven months.\nIn rates, the rise in U.S. 10-year yields to 1.33% limited some of the pressure on the dollar from the poor payrolls print, though its index still touched a one-month low before steadying at 92.207. Cash Treasurys were closed on Monday. Fixed income was also quiet in Europe ahead of this week’s risk events. Bunds bear flatten a touch, gilts bull steepen; both settling off extremes of the morning’s trade. Italy leads a modest tightening in peripheral spreads. Long-end Spain lags after reports the sovereign intends to raise 5 billion euros from a debut green debt deal.\nIn FX, the dollar was changing hands versus the yen at 109.90, while the euro stood at $1.1868 after hitting a five-week top of $1.1908 on Friday. currencies traded in a tight range with a hint of USD outperformance. AUD, SEK and NZD are at the bottom of the G-10 scoreboard. Indonesia’s rupiah and the Thai baht led most emerging Asian currencies higher as gains in regional equities boosted risk appetite. The Taiwan dollar climbed, touching the strongest level since early June. Indonesia’s rupiah advances for a third day, aided by foreign fund inflows into the nation’s bonds and equities.\nThe European Central Bank holds its policy meeting this weekand a number of policy hawks have been calling for a step back in the bank’s huge asset-buying programme, though President Christine Lagarde has sounded more dovish.Euro zone sovereign bond yields barely budged on Monday. In early trade, Germany’s benchmark 10-year Bund yield was steady at -0.36%. “We expect the ECB to announce a reduced pace of Q4 PEPP (pandemic emergency purchase programme) at its September meeting on the back of easier financial conditions,” said analysts at TD Securities. “All other policy levers are likely to be left on hold, with inflation forecasts revised sharply up this year and next. Communication risks are high, and Lagarde will want to avoid sounding overly hawkish, instead emphasising ‘persistence’.”\nIn commodities, oil slid after Saudi Arabia slashed prices of all crude grades to Asian customers, while leaving prices to northwestern Europe and the United States steady. While futures rebounded from Asia’s lows, WTI remains ~0.9% lower but recovers above $68.50; Brent returns back below $72 after a short-lived bounce.\n\nThe prospect of a later start to Fed tapering proved only fleetingly positive for non-yielding gold, which stood at $1,825 an ounce, having reached its highest since mid-June at $1,833.80. L\nAluminum hit the highest in over a decade on the LME as political unrest in Guinea fueled concerns over supply of the raw material needed to make the metal. A unit of the military seized power and suspended the constitution, raising the possibility of disruption to bauxite shipment from the key global supplier.LME lead and nickel lag peers, dropping over 1%.\nBitcoin was up for a sixth day, trading around $51,700 apiece, while Ethereum continued to coil just under $4,000 waiting for the next major short squeeze that will take it to new record highs and $10,000 thereafter.\nThere is nothing on the US calendar today due to Labor day. In Germany, we got the July factory orders (3.4% vs -1.0 Exp.), August construction PMI (49.5, Last 49.5) and UK August construction PMI (55.2, exp. 56.9).\n* * *\nDB's Jim Reid concludes the overnight wrap\nAll of a sudden after 18 months at home I’m going to a DB conference this week and I’ll also be back in the office for a day. My wife is hosting a “he’s finally gone back to the office” party at home. Talking of parties we hosted a huge children’s party for the twins 4th birthday on Saturday. Given the lockdowns of the last year we wanted to do something special but boy was it stressful. Indeed I’m still recovering from having 70 screaming kids running loose and shouting in my ears. Good preparation for my first “live” team meeting back.\nThe champagne corks might be about to go off in the offices of the more hawkish European member states’ central banks this week as an important ECB meeting (Thursday) will be the main highlight. They could use it to announce the start of the end of the PEPP (more later). Before that though, today is a US holiday (Labor Day) with tomorrow and Wednesday Rosh Hashanah (Jewish New Year). So the week will likely get off to a slow start.\nElsewhere we’ll get monetary policy decisions from Australia (tomorrow), Canada (Wednesday), and Russia (Friday), and prior reports from Bloomberg have suggested that President Biden could decide who the next Fed Chair is from around this week. In terms of other data, it’ll be worth keeping an eye on the German ZEW (tomorrow), US JOLTS (Wednesday), China CPI/PPI (Thursday) and US PPI (Friday).\nThe ECB meeting on Thursday is likely the most important event though. At this meeting, the Governing Council are due to conduct a joint assessment of financing conditions and the outlook for inflation, which will be the basis for a recalibration of the pace of PEPP net purchases. The big question for investors will be whether the ECB slows down these purchases, and recent comments by Chief Economist Lane implied that the hurdle to decelerating purchases might be lower than the market had assumed, as he played down the broader significance of a deceleration. Furthermore, we’ve also had the flash CPI estimate that’s showed inflation was running at +3.0% in August, the highest level in nearly a decade. In their preview (link here), our European economists are of the view that an announcement of slower purchases is slightly more likely at this meeting than in December. So it could be a taper week.\nElsewhere it’ll be interesting to see what the Fed speakers make of Friday’s payrolls report. NY President Williams' (dove) has a speech on the economic outlook on Wednesday. Dallas' Kaplan (hawk / non-voter) talks on Wednesday and he has been a proponent of a September taper so will he wobble? Elsewhere Cleveland's Mester (hawk / non-voter) also talks on Friday.\nFriday's jobs report had something for everyone. Weak payrolls but signs of supply constraints in the details. The headline (235k vs. 1053k last month including revisions) and private (243k vs. 798k) payrolls were below the consensus of 733k and 610k, respectively. It seems the Fed are disproportionately focused on this headline number but there was strength elsewhere. Both the headline U-3 (5.2% vs. 5.4%) and U-6 (8.8% vs. 9.2%) rates improved amidst a 509k gain in employment and 318k decline in unemployment. In addition, the prime-age (25-54) employment-to-population ratio improved a couple of tenths to 78% and prime-age participation held steady at 81.8%. Average earnings were at +4.3% against +3.9% expected. Perhaps this explains why 10 year yields ended the day around +4bps higher even with the substantial payrolls miss. It may also tell us a bit more about the positioning of the market now. We had many days of strong data in the early summer while rates rallied hard. The technicals back then were phenomenal and the market short. The technicals are now far less strong.\nWe’ll get an early chance to see an alternative view of the labour market with Wednesday's JOLTS report even if it refers to July. This report has shown great tightness in labour markets of late with quits rates around record highs and vacancy yields at records low. Elsewhere on employment, Thursday's jobless claims will be interesting with Federal UI benefits ending this week for all states. As such we could see a bigger decline in initial claims, though such a fall may wait for another week. As of mid-August, there were still 9.2mn people collecting either PUA or PEUC, most of whom will lose all income support in the coming weeks. While this may provide some relief with respect to the labor shortage it could also leave some light on income which may impact consumption.\nBack to central banks the most interesting outside of the ECB will be the RBA tomorrow where our economist (link here) is expecting that they will reverse their taper decision, and announce that they’ll continue to purchase government bonds at the current average pace of A$5bn per week, rather than tapering to A$4bn per week.\nAsian markets have started the week on the front foot with the Nikkei (+1.80%), Hang Seng (+0.51%), Shanghai Comp (+1.02%) and India’s Nifty (+0.47%) all gaining ground. The Kospi (-0.04%) is flattish. US and Euro Futures are pretty flat. Elsewhere, Brent crude oil prices are down -1.12% after Saudi Arabia slashed crude prices for Asian buyers, raising the prospect of competition between OPEC+ producers to gain/maintain market share.\nTurning to the latest on the pandemic, Italy’s Public Administration Minister Renato Brunetta said that the country will decide by the end of September whether vaccines will become mandatory for all people aged 12 and over. The law will be passed if the country hasn’t reached a vaccination level between 80% and 90%. Here in the UK, the government will decide by the end of September on whether to make it mandatory to provide vaccine certification for entry to large venues where infection risk may be higher. The UK Vaccines Minister Nadhim Zahawi further said that the government hasn’t yet decided on whether to roll out vaccines to healthy 12- to 15-year-olds, but if the move does go ahead, then parental consent would be needed.\nRecapping last week now and global markets saw some divergence as ECB members grew more hawkish and Fed officials stuck to their more dovish tones, with economic data partially reinforcing both views. US equities finished the week just off their highs with the S&P 500 just worse than unchanged (-0.03%) on Friday but finishing up +0.58% over the course of the week. There was a shift to defensives and growth stocks with the NASDAQ gaining +1.55% last week (+0.21% Friday) while cyclicals, such as US banks (-3.69%), were on the back foot. European equities, which are more cyclically focused, underperformed as the STOXX 600 ended the week marginally (-0.09%) lower after Friday’s -0.56% loss.\nThe divergent central bank tones was most apparent in sovereign debt performance. US 10yr Treasury yields ended the week up +1.5bps, most of that coming on Friday’s +3.9bp gain despite a weaker-than-expected employment report as markets looked at other aspects of the report and ahead to the upcoming supply outlook after the holiday weekend. On the other hand, hawkish comment ahead of the ECB meeting saw bond yields in Europe move higher across much of the continent, with those on 10yr bunds (+6.2bps) reaching their highest level in over 6 weeks. Peripheral bonds in southern Europe sold off similarly, with 10yr Italian (+7.4bps), Spanish (+4.2bps), Portuguese (+5.0bps), and Greek (+8.9bps) yields all climbing.\nOutside of the employment report on Friday, global composite PMIs for August slowed from the previous reading, but remained in strong expansionary territory in Europe and the US. The final Euro area composite PMI was down 0.5pts from the initial reading at 59.0, while Germany’s figure fell 0.6pts to 60.0. Meanwhile the US saw the composite PMI stay at 55.4, which is the lowest reading in eight months as the pace of growth seems to have definitively peaked back in May. The US ISM services PMI fell 2.4pts to 61.7 last month while the commentary continues to highlight supply chain disturbances and labour shortages. Finally, Euro Area retail sales for July showed a -2.3% slowdown (0.0% expected), after the previous month was revised up 0.3pp to 1.8%. The drop is reflective of the surge in cases at that time due to the delta variant.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":289,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":812359655,"gmtCreate":1630555399277,"gmtModify":1676530339468,"author":{"id":"3582002557827165","authorId":"3582002557827165","authorIdStr":"3582002557827165","name":"4c7ea105","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582002557827165"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/812359655","repostId":"2164481914","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2164481914","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1630529217,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2164481914?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-02 04:46","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tech stocks send Nasdaq to fresh record close, boost S&P","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2164481914","media":"Reuters","summary":"Gains for tech stocks, utilities and real estate.\nAugust private jobs growth misses expectations.\nIn","content":"<ul>\n <li>Gains for tech stocks, utilities and real estate.</li>\n <li>August private jobs growth misses expectations.</li>\n <li>Indexes: Dow falls 0.14%, S&amp;P up 0.03%, Nasdaq rises 0.33%.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Sept 1 (Reuters) - The Nasdaq closed Wednesday at a record high, and the S&amp;P 500 rose but just missed a fresh peak, as September kicked off with renewed buying of technology stocks and private payrolls data, which supported the case for dovish monetary policy.</p>\n<p>Technology stocks , which tend to benefit from a low-rate environment, finished higher.

Consensus economists expect to see that a still-robust 750,000 jobs came back in August, according to Bloomberg data. This would represent a significant print by pre-pandemic standards, but still mark a deceleration from July's increase of 943,000 jobs. The unemployment rate likely improved further, reaching 5.2% from the 5.4% reported during July.</p>\n<p>The August jobs report is set to be an especially telling report, capturing the impact of the latest surge in coronavirus cases on the U.S. labor market. Other recent economic reports already began to reflect the Delta variant impacts on activity: Job creation in the U.S. services sector slowed by the most since February, while manufacturing sector workforce numbers increased by the least since last year, according to IHS <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MRKT\">Markit</a>'s latest purchasing managers' index reports.</p>\n<p>\"High frequency labor market data are signaling a marked slowdown in employment activity in the August payroll survey week, suggesting downside risk to our forecast,\" Bank of America economist Michelle Meyer wrote in a note on Friday, adding that she expects non-farm payrolls to grow by just 600,000 for August.</p>\n<p>\"Our below-consensus non-farm payrolls forecast is predicated on the markedly weaker high frequency employment data between the July and August payroll survey periods,\" Meyer added. \"Specifically, the Homebase and UKG employment series were both down 3.4% and 2.4%, respectively, over the month.\"</p>\n<p>The outcome of the August jobs report will also be another closely watched data point informing the Federal Reserve's next moves on monetary policy, signaling whether the labor market has recovered enough to warrant a less accommodative tilt. Namely, many Fed officials have been waiting to see the evolution of the labor market recovery to determine the timing for the central bank to announce tapering of its $120 billion per month asset purchase program.</p>\n<p>Last week, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said during the central bank's virtual Jackson Hole symposium that there has \"been clear progress toward maximum employment\" and suggested \"it could be appropriate to start reducing the pace of asset purchases this year\" if the recovery continues to improve.</p>\n<p>However, he also flagged the ongoing risks introduced by the Delta variant, and added that an \"ill-time policy move\" could knock the recovery off its trajectory.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67ac641337acd82a0408b6109dad21f9\" tg-width=\"5505\" tg-height=\"3655\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 27: People walk near Little Island park on May 27, 2021 in New York City.

(Photo by Noam Galai/Getty Images)Noam Galai via Getty Images</p>\n<p>\"Given the emphasis that Powell and other FOMC members have placed on incoming data — especially on the labor market — the payrolls report will probably take on even greater importance than usual,\" Jonas Goltermann, senior markets economist for Capital Economics, wrote in a note on Friday. \"We expect another robust increase in U.S. employment,\"</p>\n<p>Other data in Friday's jobs report will include average hourly wage changes. These are expected to grow 0.3% over last month and 4.0% over last year, with these paces remaining roughly unchanged compared to July. The increases are set to come as job growth slows across lower-wage roles after an initial reopening surge in hiring in the spring and early summer, and as worker shortages push up compensation costs across many firms.</p>\n<h3>Consumer confidence</h3>\n<p>Other economic data due for release this week will reflect consumers' assessments of the recovery.</p>\n<p>The Conference Board's consumer confidence index is set for release on Tuesday, with a drop baked into the forecast. Consensus economists expect the index to slip to 123.0 for August, down from 129.1 in July, according to Bloomberg data. July's print had been the highest since February 2020, marking a rebound in confidence back to pre-pandemic levels.</p>\n<p>The Conference Board's labor differential, or difference between those who said jobs are \"plentiful\" less those who said jobs were \"hard to get,\" also increased to the most since 2000 in last month's report, pointing to the abundance of job openings as employers seek out workers to meet rising demand.</p>\n<p>Consumer confidence and sentiment indices have been monitored closely this year as a gauge of the outlook among Americans at large, pointing to consumers' propensity to spend and presaging demand trends for goods, services and labor down the line. The data have been bumpy in recent months, however, and have ebbed and flowed largely in line with COVID-19 infection trends.</p>\n<p>The latest surge in the Delta variant catalyzed a collapse in the University of Michigan's Surveys of Consumers index for August, suggesting the Conference Board's measure might also see a similar dip for the month. The University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index slid to a 10-year low in August, plunging to 70.3 from July's 81.2.</p>\n<p>\"Consumers' extreme reactions were due to the surging Delta variant, higher inflation, slower wage growth, and smaller declines in unemployment,\" Richard Curtin, Surveys of Consumers chief economist, wrote in a press statement. \"The extraordinary falloff in sentiment also reflects an emotional response, from dashed hopes that the pandemic would soon end and lives could return to normal.\"</p>\n<h3>Economic calendar</h3>\n<ul>\n <li><p><b>Monday: </b>Pending home sales, month-over-month, July (0.4% expected, -1.9% in June);

Consensus economists expect to see that a still-robust 750,000 jobs came back in August, according to Bloomberg data. This would represent a significant print by pre-pandemic standards, but still mark a deceleration from July's increase of 943,000 jobs. The unemployment rate likely improved further, reaching 5.2% from the 5.4% reported during July.\nThe August jobs report is set to be an especially telling report, capturing the impact of the latest surge in coronavirus cases on the U.S. labor market. Other recent economic reports already began to reflect the Delta variant impacts on activity: Job creation in the U.S. services sector slowed by the most since February, while manufacturing sector workforce numbers increased by the least since last year, according to IHS Markit's latest purchasing managers' index reports.\n\"High frequency labor market data are signaling a marked slowdown in employment activity in the August payroll survey week, suggesting downside risk to our forecast,\" Bank of America economist Michelle Meyer wrote in a note on Friday, adding that she expects non-farm payrolls to grow by just 600,000 for August.\n\"Our below-consensus non-farm payrolls forecast is predicated on the markedly weaker high frequency employment data between the July and August payroll survey periods,\" Meyer added. \"Specifically, the Homebase and UKG employment series were both down 3.4% and 2.4%, respectively, over the month.\"\nThe outcome of the August jobs report will also be another closely watched data point informing the Federal Reserve's next moves on monetary policy, signaling whether the labor market has recovered enough to warrant a less accommodative tilt. Namely, many Fed officials have been waiting to see the evolution of the labor market recovery to determine the timing for the central bank to announce tapering of its $120 billion per month asset purchase program.\nLast week, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said during the central bank's virtual Jackson Hole symposium that there has \"been clear progress toward maximum employment\" and suggested \"it could be appropriate to start reducing the pace of asset purchases this year\" if the recovery continues to improve.\nHowever, he also flagged the ongoing risks introduced by the Delta variant, and added that an \"ill-time policy move\" could knock the recovery off its trajectory.\nNEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 27: People walk near Little Island park on May 27, 2021 in New York City. On May 19, all pandemic restrictions, including mask mandates, social distancing guidelines, venue capacities and restaurant curfews were lifted by New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. (Photo by Noam Galai/Getty Images)Noam Galai via Getty Images\n\"Given the emphasis that Powell and other FOMC members have placed on incoming data — especially on the labor market — the payrolls report will probably take on even greater importance than usual,\" Jonas Goltermann, senior markets economist for Capital Economics, wrote in a note on Friday. \"We expect another robust increase in U.S. employment,\"\nOther data in Friday's jobs report will include average hourly wage changes. These are expected to grow 0.3% over last month and 4.0% over last year, with these paces remaining roughly unchanged compared to July. The increases are set to come as job growth slows across lower-wage roles after an initial reopening surge in hiring in the spring and early summer, and as worker shortages push up compensation costs across many firms.\nConsumer confidence\nOther economic data due for release this week will reflect consumers' assessments of the recovery.\nThe Conference Board's consumer confidence index is set for release on Tuesday, with a drop baked into the forecast. Consensus economists expect the index to slip to 123.0 for August, down from 129.1 in July, according to Bloomberg data. July's print had been the highest since February 2020, marking a rebound in confidence back to pre-pandemic levels.\nThe Conference Board's labor differential, or difference between those who said jobs are \"plentiful\" less those who said jobs were \"hard to get,\" also increased to the most since 2000 in last month's report, pointing to the abundance of job openings as employers seek out workers to meet rising demand.\nConsumer confidence and sentiment indices have been monitored closely this year as a gauge of the outlook among Americans at large, pointing to consumers' propensity to spend and presaging demand trends for goods, services and labor down the line. The data have been bumpy in recent months, however, and have ebbed and flowed largely in line with COVID-19 infection trends.\nThe latest surge in the Delta variant catalyzed a collapse in the University of Michigan's Surveys of Consumers index for August, suggesting the Conference Board's measure might also see a similar dip for the month. The University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index slid to a 10-year low in August, plunging to 70.3 from July's 81.2.\n\"Consumers' extreme reactions were due to the surging Delta variant, higher inflation, slower wage growth, and smaller declines in unemployment,\" Richard Curtin, Surveys of Consumers chief economist, wrote in a press statement. \"The extraordinary falloff in sentiment also reflects an emotional response, from dashed hopes that the pandemic would soon end and lives could return to normal.\"\nEconomic calendar\n\nMonday: Pending home sales, month-over-month, July (0.4% expected, -1.9% in June);

The company breaks down engagement from different regions.</p>\n<p>Interestingly, engagement from users in the U.S., Canada, and Europe dropped off from the same time last year and the quarter before. Uncoincidentally, these areas have some of the highest vaccination rates among their population and are subsequently further along in reopening their economies.</p>\n<p>To quantify the effect, time spent on Roblox in the U.S. and Canada across all users in the second quarter was 2.9 billion hours, down 9% from last year's 3.2 billion hours during the same quarter. That figure is also down from the 3.2 billion hours engaged from the first quarter of this year.</p>\n<p>Similarly, although not as significantly, time spent on Roblox decreased in Europe in the most recent quarter, dropping 2% to 2.36 billion hours from the 2.41 billion hours in the year before. The drop was more noticeable in Europe from the previous quarter, where the total time spent on Roblox was 2.73 billion hours.</p>\n<p>Those two regions account for more than 50% of the total 9.2 billion hours of engagement on Roblox in Q2. The trend could worsen as more of the world gets vaccinated against COVID-19, and economic reopenings gain steam. That being said, another change of direction is not out of the question. The delta variant is causing some economies to rethink reopening strategies, and other variants in the future could further hamper the reopening efforts.</p>\n<p>The reversal of high levels of engagement as economies reopen is to be expected and not necessarily a feared outcome. Shareholders might want to breathe a sigh of relief that the reversal of the trend has been modest so far. Consider that at the pandemic onset, overall engagement on the platform jumped by 164% from the year before. To give back 9% and 2% of that increase from the U.S., Canada, and Europe is not a terrible outcome following such dramatic growth.</p>\n<p>Still, this was only the first quarter of&nbsp;economic reopening efforts, and decreasing engagement could continue. This is a challenge that management will likely have to navigate for several quarters. If Roblox can keep those decreases at less than 10%,&nbsp;investors&nbsp;should be pleased with the results each quarter.</p>\n<p></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Roblox Is Feeling Reopening Headwinds</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\">\nRoblox Is Feeling Reopening Headwinds\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-08-26 11:16 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/25/roblox-is-feeling-reopening-headwinds/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Key Points\n\nEngagement from players in the U.S. and Canada decreased by 9% from the year prior.\nThe decreasing engagement was apparent in regions that were reopening economies.\nThis will be something ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/25/roblox-is-feeling-reopening-headwinds/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"RBLX":"Roblox Corporation"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/08/25/roblox-is-feeling-reopening-headwinds/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1132822663","content_text":"Key Points\n\nEngagement from players in the U.S. and Canada decreased by 9% from the year prior.\nThe decreasing engagement was apparent in regions that were reopening economies.\nThis will be something management will need to navigate for several quarters.\n\n\nRoblox(NYSE:RBLX)is a gaming platform that lets players personalize their avatars with items like clothing, gear, and simulated gestures.

That's how Roblox makes its money -- by selling the in-game currency (Robux) that's required to buy featured items or enter certain areas on the platform.

(PTON) reports fiscal Q4 2021 earnings on Thursday, with analysts expecting","content":"<p>Peloton Interactive Inc. (PTON) reports fiscal Q4 2021 earnings on Thursday, with analysts expecting the fitness provider to post a $0.34 per-share loss on $923.5 million in revenue. If met, the loss will mark a turnaround from the $0.27 profit booked in the same quarter last year. The stock ended a five month slide in May after beating Q3 top and bottom line estimates, despite a loss of $0.03 per-share, but remains stuck in the lower half of an 11-month trading range.</p>\n<h2>Shaking Off Headwinds</h2>\n<p>The stock fell with other COVID beneficiaries at the start of 2021 and turned higher when the Delta variant hit American news headlines. Controversies about treadmill recalls and injured kids are receding but fitness centers have remained open during the latest outbreak and they’re jammed with customers tired of working out in private. Peloton has responded with initiatives that include armband heart rate monitors and partnerships with corporate wellness providers.</p>\n<p>Hedge funds are also moving back into Peloton, as evidenced by recent SEC disclosures. Tiger Global, Viking Global, and Third Point Management all increased position size during the quarter, suggesting comfort with the company’s long-term outlook. That buying pressure has shown up on technical charts as well, with accumulation readings lifting above 2020 levels, even though the stock is still trading more than 60 points under January’s all-time high.</p>\n<h2>Wall Street and Technical Outlook</h2>\n<p>Wall Street consensus has dipped in the last three months and is now standing at an ‘Overweight’ rating, based upon 20 ‘Buy’, 2 ‘Overweight’, 5 ‘Hold’, and 2 ‘Sell’ recommendations. Price targets currently range from a low of $45 to a Street-high $185 while the stock closed Friday’s session more than $25 below the median $135 target. This humble placement should support higher prices if Peloton beats top and bottom line estimates this week.</p>\n<p>Peloton rallied above the 2019 peak at 37.02 in May 2020 and took off in a powerful uptrend that posted an all-time high at $171.09 in January 2021.

(PTON) reports fiscal Q4 2021 earnings on Thursday, with analysts expecting the fitness provider to post a $0.34 per-share loss on $923.5 million in revenue. If met, the loss will mark a turnaround from the $0.27 profit booked in the same quarter last year. The stock ended a five month slide in May after beating Q3 top and bottom line estimates, despite a loss of $0.03 per-share, but remains stuck in the lower half of an 11-month trading range.\nShaking Off Headwinds\nThe stock fell with other COVID beneficiaries at the start of 2021 and turned higher when the Delta variant hit American news headlines. Controversies about treadmill recalls and injured kids are receding but fitness centers have remained open during the latest outbreak and they’re jammed with customers tired of working out in private. Peloton has responded with initiatives that include armband heart rate monitors and partnerships with corporate wellness providers.\nHedge funds are also moving back into Peloton, as evidenced by recent SEC disclosures. Tiger Global, Viking Global, and Third Point Management all increased position size during the quarter, suggesting comfort with the company’s long-term outlook. That buying pressure has shown up on technical charts as well, with accumulation readings lifting above 2020 levels, even though the stock is still trading more than 60 points under January’s all-time high.\nWall Street and Technical Outlook\nWall Street consensus has dipped in the last three months and is now standing at an ‘Overweight’ rating, based upon 20 ‘Buy’, 2 ‘Overweight’, 5 ‘Hold’, and 2 ‘Sell’ recommendations. Price targets currently range from a low of $45 to a Street-high $185 while the stock closed Friday’s session more than $25 below the median $135 target. This humble placement should support higher prices if Peloton beats top and bottom line estimates this week.\nPeloton rallied above the 2019 peak at 37.02 in May 2020 and took off in a powerful uptrend that posted an all-time high at $171.09 in January 2021. It got cut in half into May and bounced, reversing again after mounting the 50% selloff retracement. The stock is now wrapping up the third month of testing at the 200-day moving average while weekly Stochastic readings have hit oversold levels.

The number of shares outstanding at the end of the second quarter was down about 2% from a year ago thanks to these buybacks, and management increased its program by $50 billion earlier this year.

They fear stocks are getting too expensive when the market reaches fresh highs. This isn't necessarily true -- stock valuations should be considered in context on an individual basis -- but nonetheless&nbsp;this anxiety is prevalent.</p>\n<p>However, just because the market is hovering near highs, that doesn't mean every stock is up. In fact, high-quality businesses like <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZM\">Zoom</a> Video Communications</b> (NASDAQ:ZM), <b>Wix.com</b> (NASDAQ:WIX), and <b>Roku</b> (NASDAQ:ROKU) are all down sharply over the past few months. So put general anxiety aside and consider why these three stocks could make great additions to any portfolio right now.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1c7d6d256047002b383ac72d3c07041b\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Zoom Video Communications.</span></p>\n<h2>Zoom: Down 25% from its 3-month high</h2>\n<p>In 2020, many people started working remotely from home. But the exclusive work-from-home trend doesn't look like it's sticking around. Rather, companies are adopting a hybrid model -- working both from home and in the office. According to a recent study from <b>Accenture</b>, 83% of workers approve of the hybrid model.&nbsp;And 63% of high-growth companies plan to permanently implement the hybrid model going forward.</p>\n<p>Here's why this is important for Zoom: Companies will still need a video-conferencing tool for the foreseeable future. It doesn't matter that companies might use Zoom less in coming years than they did during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The point is they'll likely continue subscribing to keep their hybrid workforces going.</p>\n<p>Recent financial results from Zoom seem to confirm this new reality. The company continues to grow its customer count even though the pandemic catalyst has faded into the rearview mirror. In fact, it finished the second quarter of its fiscal 2022 with 2,278 customers spending over $100,000 annually -- that's an increase of 14% just from the previous <i>quarter</i>. For perspective, this high-spend customer base now makes up 20% of total revenue.</p>\n<p>Zoom isn't going anywhere and has plenty of good growth ahead. But what also makes this an intriguing investment right now is the stock has never been cheaper from a valuation perspective. The stock now trades at a price-to-sales ratio under 25, which is the lowest it's ever been.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dc21e5f0326dd6c918372a62f29b9106\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"434\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Wix: Down 29% from its 3-month high</h2>\n<p>Forget what you know about Wix for a moment and consider the following three facts. First, the company grew registered users 15% year over year and 5% quarter over quarter in the second quarter of 2021.&nbsp;Second, Wix users tend to spend more over time, as evidenced by its net revenue retention rate of 113% in Q2. Third, the company is actively preparing for much more growth by rapidly increasing its workforce 10% from last quarter and by building out its new $30 million headquarters.</p>\n<p>In my opinion, these three factors are indicative of strong business fundamentals. But the market has lost interest in Wix stock because of some near-term uncertainty regarding how the economy might react to new strains of the coronavirus. Essentially, some entrepreneurs worry that starting a new business -- even online -- might not make sense if pandemic is worsening again and puts new stresses on their would-be customers. It's a valid concern but it affects the short term. For the long term, Wix seems to be sitting on a firm foundation.</p>\n<p>Consider that the majority of Wix's revenue comes from creative subscriptions -- buying a domain and building a website, among other things. These subscription products result in high-margin, recurring revenue. Currently, its annual recurring revenue is at $967 million -- up 22% year over year.&nbsp;To me, with a market capitalization of just $12 billion, Wix stock is a great value based on its ARR and ongoing growth potential.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/64f526ed3ff7a759ca9030b270818b12\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p>\n<h2>Roku: Down 32% from its 3-month high</h2>\n<p>Investors appear to be shying away from Roku stock lately for two reasons. First, it seems the connected-TV space is getting more competitive. For example, <b>Amazon</b> just launched its first TV with its operating system built in, directly challenging Roku's CTV operating-system dominance. Second, Roku stock trades with a P/S ratio of around 20 -- a lofty valuation that's more than <i>double</i> where it traded just five years ago.</p>\n<p>To the former concern, consider how Roku could still be a major winner even if the competition encroaches on its turf. According to eMarketer, CTV ad spend is expected to grow 49% year over year in 2021, and thereafter at a nearly 20% compound annual growth rate through 2025.

Here's why. Companies with low profit potential typically get cheaper valuations.

At the end of 2016, the company's gross profit margin was just 30%.&nbsp;In the most recent quarter, it was 52%. This upward trend looks poised to continue and that's why this stock isn't as expensive as it seems at first glance.</p>\n<p>For these reasons and more, Roku looks like an opportunistic long-term buy right now. In fact, Roku, Wix, and Zoom all appear poised to beat the market average over the next five years. So if you've never given these stocks a hard look, now's a great time to give them some serious consideration.

They fear stocks are getting too expensive when the market reaches fresh highs. This isn't necessarily true -- stock valuations should be considered in context on an individual basis -- but nonetheless this anxiety is prevalent.\nHowever, just because the market is hovering near highs, that doesn't mean every stock is up. In fact, high-quality businesses like Zoom Video Communications (NASDAQ:ZM), Wix.com (NASDAQ:WIX), and Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) are all down sharply over the past few months. So put general anxiety aside and consider why these three stocks could make great additions to any portfolio right now.\nImage source: Zoom Video Communications.\nZoom: Down 25% from its 3-month high\nIn 2020, many people started working remotely from home. But the exclusive work-from-home trend doesn't look like it's sticking around. Rather, companies are adopting a hybrid model -- working both from home and in the office. According to a recent study from Accenture, 83% of workers approve of the hybrid model. And 63% of high-growth companies plan to permanently implement the hybrid model going forward.\nHere's why this is important for Zoom: Companies will still need a video-conferencing tool for the foreseeable future. It doesn't matter that companies might use Zoom less in coming years than they did during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The point is they'll likely continue subscribing to keep their hybrid workforces going.\nRecent financial results from Zoom seem to confirm this new reality. The company continues to grow its customer count even though the pandemic catalyst has faded into the rearview mirror. In fact, it finished the second quarter of its fiscal 2022 with 2,278 customers spending over $100,000 annually -- that's an increase of 14% just from the previous quarter. For perspective, this high-spend customer base now makes up 20% of total revenue.\nZoom isn't going anywhere and has plenty of good growth ahead. But what also makes this an intriguing investment right now is the stock has never been cheaper from a valuation perspective. The stock now trades at a price-to-sales ratio under 25, which is the lowest it's ever been.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nWix: Down 29% from its 3-month high\nForget what you know about Wix for a moment and consider the following three facts. First, the company grew registered users 15% year over year and 5% quarter over quarter in the second quarter of 2021. Second, Wix users tend to spend more over time, as evidenced by its net revenue retention rate of 113% in Q2. Third, the company is actively preparing for much more growth by rapidly increasing its workforce 10% from last quarter and by building out its new $30 million headquarters.\nIn my opinion, these three factors are indicative of strong business fundamentals. But the market has lost interest in Wix stock because of some near-term uncertainty regarding how the economy might react to new strains of the coronavirus. Essentially, some entrepreneurs worry that starting a new business -- even online -- might not make sense if pandemic is worsening again and puts new stresses on their would-be customers. It's a valid concern but it affects the short term. For the long term, Wix seems to be sitting on a firm foundation.\nConsider that the majority of Wix's revenue comes from creative subscriptions -- buying a domain and building a website, among other things. These subscription products result in high-margin, recurring revenue. Currently, its annual recurring revenue is at $967 million -- up 22% year over year. To me, with a market capitalization of just $12 billion, Wix stock is a great value based on its ARR and ongoing growth potential.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nRoku: Down 32% from its 3-month high\nInvestors appear to be shying away from Roku stock lately for two reasons. First, it seems the connected-TV space is getting more competitive. For example, Amazon just launched its first TV with its operating system built in, directly challenging Roku's CTV operating-system dominance. Second, Roku stock trades with a P/S ratio of around 20 -- a lofty valuation that's more than double where it traded just five years ago.\nTo the former concern, consider how Roku could still be a major winner even if the competition encroaches on its turf. According to eMarketer, CTV ad spend is expected to grow 49% year over year in 2021, and thereafter at a nearly 20% compound annual growth rate through 2025.

The internet giant took advantage of an uneven pandemic reopening, catering to homebound users spending more time on screens as well as consumers venturing out to shop and travel.</p>\n<p>Second-quarter sales for Alphabet Inc., Google’s parent, surged past Wall Street estimates, due to a swell of ads from retail marketers eager to encourage consumer spending -- through e-commerce on YouTube and by physically returning to stores.</p>\n<p>The company brought in US$61.9 billion in revenue, up from $38.3 billion in Q2 2020, and reported an operating income of $19.4 billion, up from $6.4 billion in Q2 2020.</p>\n<p>Income (expenses) also rose to $2.6 billion, up from $1.9 billion, while net income reached $18.5 billion, up from $7 billion in 2021.</p>\n<p>Diluted EPS for the quarter was $27.26, up from $10.13 in the same period last year.</p>\n<p>“Our strong second quarter revenues of $61.9 billion reflect elevated consumer online activity and broad-based strength in advertiser spend. Again, we benefited from excellent execution across the board by our teams,” comments Alphabet and Google chief financial officer Ruth Porat.</p>\n<p>Alphabet, which owns and operates Google, also published additional financials related to Google’s performance.</p>\n<p>Google advertising: Search brought in US$35.8 billion in Q2 2021, up from $21.3 billion in Q2 2020. YouTube ad revenue totalled $7 billion, up from $3.8 billion, and Google Network totalled $7.6 billion, up from $4.7 billion.</p>\n<p>In total, Google Services brought in $57 billion, up from $35 billion for the same period last year. Google Services include ads, Android, Chrome, hardware, Google Maps, Google Play, Search, and YouTube. Revenue generation comes from advertising; sales of apps, in-app purchases, digital content products, and hardware; and fees received for subscription-based products such as YouTube Premium and YouTube TV.</p>\n<p>Google Cloud reported revenue of $4.6 billion, up from $3 billion for the same period last year.</p>\n<p>Google’s total number of employees also rose from 127,498 in Q2 2020 to 144,056 in Q2 2021.</p>\n<p>“In Q2, there was a rising tide of online activity in many parts of the world, and we’re proud that our services helped so many consumers and businesses. Our long-term investments in AI and Google Cloud are helping us drive significant improvements in everyone’s digital experience,” comments Alphabet and Google CEO Sundar Pinchai.</p>\n<h4>YouTube is a proven juggernaut</h4>\n<p>When we talk about the winners and losers in the streaming wars, the focus is primarily on the subscription services like Disney+, Netflix and HBO Max. But ever since Alphabet started breaking out YouTube's performance early last year, it's become clear it should be right there in the mix with the rest.</p>\n<p>YouTube is not only a streaming video juggernaut that continues to report mind-bending growth, it is also turning into a key rival to the paid services that dominate the conversation around the future of television. And it has plenty of room to grow.</p>\n<p>Take a look at some of the key points we've learned about YouTube's growth recently:</p>\n<p>Quarterly revenue is on a par with Netflix, and it's growing at a faster rate. Alphabet said YouTube booked $7 billion in ad revenue last quarter. That's up 83% from the year-ago quarter. Compare that to the $7.34 billion in revenue Netflix booked during the same period. Netflix's revenue grew 19.4% from a year ago.</p>\n<p>Also, practically all of Netflix's revenue comes from subscriptions. Alphabet only reports YouTube's advertising revenue, not revenue from subscription products like YouTube TV and YouTube Premium.</p>\n<p>YouTube's television viewing is growing faster than ever. While the vast majority of YouTube consumption happens on phones, computers and tablets, Alphabet reported huge growth over the past year in people watching on television sets.</p>\n<p>The company said 120 million people watched YouTube on a TV last month, up from 100 million per month last year. Philipp Schindler, Google's chief business officer, said on the company's earnings call Tuesday YouTube on TV is \"the fastest growing consumer surface that we have.\"</p>\n<p>It’s the strongest signal yet that YouTube is encroaching on Netflix (209 million subscribers as of the end of June) and Disney+’s (103.6 million subscribers as of April 3) territory in the living room.</p>\n<p>Nielsen says more people are watching YouTube and Netflix than any other streaming service. Research firm Nielsen released a fascinating study last month showing far more people still watch traditional television than streaming video.</p>\n<p>But Nielsen’s data also had an interesting ranking of time spent streaming on various services. YouTube and Netflix were the top two streamers, with each service accounting for 6% of time spent watching television.</p>\n<p>YouTube’s TikTok rival is also growing. Short-form video is the dominant trend on social media today, with TikTok leading the charge. YouTube has its own short-form video service, YouTube Shorts, designed to compete with TikTok. Alphabet didn’t disclose how many people are using YouTube shorts but said viewing metrics jumped from 6.5 billion views per day in March to 15 billion views per day by the end of last quarter.</p>\n<p>More room to grow.

ESPN+ grew subscribers by 75% year-over-year last quarter to 13.8 million, with a stronger lineup of live sports helping boost viewership. And the company also announced two new rights deals during its earnings call last quarter, including an enhanced deal with Major League Baseball until 2028 and a new deal with LaLiga, the men’s professional soccer division of the Spanish soccer league.</p>\n<p>In terms of films, Marvel names including \"Loki\" and \"Black Widow\" saw success both in theatrical releases and on Disney+, offering another major positive for Disney's business during the quarter.</p>","source":"lsy1612507957220","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Consensus economists expect to see that a still-robust 750,000 jobs came back in August, according to Bloomberg data. This would represent a significant print by pre-pandemic standards, but still mark a deceleration from July's increase of 943,000 jobs. The unemployment rate likely improved further, reaching 5.2% from the 5.4% reported during July.</p>\n<p>The August jobs report is set to be an especially telling report, capturing the impact of the latest surge in coronavirus cases on the U.S. labor market. Other recent economic reports already began to reflect the Delta variant impacts on activity: Job creation in the U.S. services sector slowed by the most since February, while manufacturing sector workforce numbers increased by the least since last year, according to IHS <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MRKT\">Markit</a>'s latest purchasing managers' index reports.</p>\n<p>\"High frequency labor market data are signaling a marked slowdown in employment activity in the August payroll survey week, suggesting downside risk to our forecast,\" Bank of America economist Michelle Meyer wrote in a note on Friday, adding that she expects non-farm payrolls to grow by just 600,000 for August.</p>\n<p>\"Our below-consensus non-farm payrolls forecast is predicated on the markedly weaker high frequency employment data between the July and August payroll survey periods,\" Meyer added. \"Specifically, the Homebase and UKG employment series were both down 3.4% and 2.4%, respectively, over the month.\"</p>\n<p>The outcome of the August jobs report will also be another closely watched data point informing the Federal Reserve's next moves on monetary policy, signaling whether the labor market has recovered enough to warrant a less accommodative tilt. Namely, many Fed officials have been waiting to see the evolution of the labor market recovery to determine the timing for the central bank to announce tapering of its $120 billion per month asset purchase program.</p>\n<p>Last week, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said during the central bank's virtual Jackson Hole symposium that there has \"been clear progress toward maximum employment\" and suggested \"it could be appropriate to start reducing the pace of asset purchases this year\" if the recovery continues to improve.</p>\n<p>However, he also flagged the ongoing risks introduced by the Delta variant, and added that an \"ill-time policy move\" could knock the recovery off its trajectory.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/67ac641337acd82a0408b6109dad21f9\" tg-width=\"5505\" tg-height=\"3655\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\">NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 27: People walk near Little Island park on May 27, 2021 in New York City.

Consensus economists expect to see that a still-robust 750,000 jobs came back in August, according to Bloomberg data. This would represent a significant print by pre-pandemic standards, but still mark a deceleration from July's increase of 943,000 jobs. The unemployment rate likely improved further, reaching 5.2% from the 5.4% reported during July.\nThe August jobs report is set to be an especially telling report, capturing the impact of the latest surge in coronavirus cases on the U.S. labor market. Other recent economic reports already began to reflect the Delta variant impacts on activity: Job creation in the U.S. services sector slowed by the most since February, while manufacturing sector workforce numbers increased by the least since last year, according to IHS Markit's latest purchasing managers' index reports.\n\"High frequency labor market data are signaling a marked slowdown in employment activity in the August payroll survey week, suggesting downside risk to our forecast,\" Bank of America economist Michelle Meyer wrote in a note on Friday, adding that she expects non-farm payrolls to grow by just 600,000 for August.\n\"Our below-consensus non-farm payrolls forecast is predicated on the markedly weaker high frequency employment data between the July and August payroll survey periods,\" Meyer added. \"Specifically, the Homebase and UKG employment series were both down 3.4% and 2.4%, respectively, over the month.\"\nThe outcome of the August jobs report will also be another closely watched data point informing the Federal Reserve's next moves on monetary policy, signaling whether the labor market has recovered enough to warrant a less accommodative tilt. Namely, many Fed officials have been waiting to see the evolution of the labor market recovery to determine the timing for the central bank to announce tapering of its $120 billion per month asset purchase program.\nLast week, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said during the central bank's virtual Jackson Hole symposium that there has \"been clear progress toward maximum employment\" and suggested \"it could be appropriate to start reducing the pace of asset purchases this year\" if the recovery continues to improve.\nHowever, he also flagged the ongoing risks introduced by the Delta variant, and added that an \"ill-time policy move\" could knock the recovery off its trajectory.\nNEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 27: People walk near Little Island park on May 27, 2021 in New York City.

After all, this is a company that’s prepared to disrupt the combustion engine-dominated automotive market as we know it.</p>\n<p>Moreover, as we’ll see, FSR stock has fallen from its peak price in 2021. It requires vision and confidence to see the share price going higher from here.</p>\n<p>But then, visionary investors can sometimes be the most successful ones. So let’s take a ride into the exciting world of zero-emission vehicles and explore the past and potential future trajectory of this fast-moving stock.</p>\n<p><b>FSR Stock at a Glance</b></p>\n<p>It’s not an exaggeration to say that FSR stock made a swift move to the upside on Aug. 10. On that day, the share price rose 21% from the previous day’s closing price to land around $18.30.</p>\n<p>We’ll discuss why that happened in a moment. For the time being, though, it’s important to know that Fisker shares could move much higher.</p>\n<p>FSR stock’s 52-week high is $31.96. Therefore, while it’s exciting to see it break through the $18 level, that might just be the first stop on a longer journey.</p>\n<p>$20 was a resistance point in June of this year as well as September and November of last year. That’s the level for investors to keep an eye on.</p>\n<p>The stock went vertical in late February of 2021, so sharp moves aren’t unusual for FSR stock.</p>\n<p>We should expect some volatility along the way. Still, that’s not necessarily a reason to panic-sell if the price action gets choppy. It’s really just par for the course with electric vehicle (EV) stocks.</p>\n<p><b>Fisker Is Ready to Ramp Up</b></p>\n<p>It’s interesting to consider that a single analyst’s opinion can move a stock’s price by more than 20% in a single day. Yet FSR stock is an example of this.</p>\n<p>Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas is clearly bullish on Fisker’s prospects as the automaker prepares to finally roll out its flagship vehicle next year.</p>\n<p>“We believe FSR may be&nbsp;one of the only EV-related startups&nbsp;to actually launch on time and ramp efficaciously in late 2022,” Jonas declared.</p>\n<p>He’s referring to the all-electric Ocean SUV, which Fisker plans to&nbsp;start producing&nbsp;on Nov. 17, 2022. Both investors and anyone planning to buy an Ocean EV will need to be patient with the company.</p>\n<p>In any event, the Morgan Stanley analyst seems hopeful that Fisker will commence production in a timely manner.</p>\n<p><b>Why One Wall Street Analyst Is Aiming High</b></p>\n<p>In fact, Jonas is so confident that he assigned an “overweight” rating and a $40 price target to FSR stock. Now, the skeptics might see that as too ambitious. Granted, the share price would almost need to triple in order to get there.</p>\n<p>However, Jonas’s rosy outlook isn’t without merit.</p>\n<p>He’s apparently counting on Fisker launching the Ocean on time. This shouldn’t be too much of a problem, as November 2022 is still a long way in the future.</p>\n<p>Jones also cited the potential for EV demand to exceed supply. Additionally, Fisker already has an agreement in place which will cover all critical planning and launch phases of the Ocean.

After all, this is a company that’s prepared to disrupt the combustion engine-dominated automotive market as we know it.\nMoreover, as we’ll see, FSR stock has fallen from its peak price in 2021. It requires vision and confidence to see the share price going higher from here.\nBut then, visionary investors can sometimes be the most successful ones. So let’s take a ride into the exciting world of zero-emission vehicles and explore the past and potential future trajectory of this fast-moving stock.\nFSR Stock at a Glance\nIt’s not an exaggeration to say that FSR stock made a swift move to the upside on Aug. 10. On that day, the share price rose 21% from the previous day’s closing price to land around $18.30.\nWe’ll discuss why that happened in a moment. For the time being, though, it’s important to know that Fisker shares could move much higher.\nFSR stock’s 52-week high is $31.96. Therefore, while it’s exciting to see it break through the $18 level, that might just be the first stop on a longer journey.\n$20 was a resistance point in June of this year as well as September and November of last year. That’s the level for investors to keep an eye on.\nThe stock went vertical in late February of 2021, so sharp moves aren’t unusual for FSR stock.\nWe should expect some volatility along the way. Still, that’s not necessarily a reason to panic-sell if the price action gets choppy. It’s really just par for the course with electric vehicle (EV) stocks.\nFisker Is Ready to Ramp Up\nIt’s interesting to consider that a single analyst’s opinion can move a stock’s price by more than 20% in a single day. Yet FSR stock is an example of this.\nMorgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas is clearly bullish on Fisker’s prospects as the automaker prepares to finally roll out its flagship vehicle next year.\n“We believe FSR may be one of the only EV-related startups to actually launch on time and ramp efficaciously in late 2022,” Jonas declared.\nHe’s referring to the all-electric Ocean SUV, which Fisker plans to start producing on Nov. 17, 2022. Both investors and anyone planning to buy an Ocean EV will need to be patient with the company.\nIn any event, the Morgan Stanley analyst seems hopeful that Fisker will commence production in a timely manner.\nWhy One Wall Street Analyst Is Aiming High\nIn fact, Jonas is so confident that he assigned an “overweight” rating and a $40 price target to FSR stock. Now, the skeptics might see that as too ambitious. Granted, the share price would almost need to triple in order to get there.\nHowever, Jonas’s rosy outlook isn’t without merit.\nHe’s apparently counting on Fisker launching the Ocean on time. This shouldn’t be too much of a problem, as November 2022 is still a long way in the future.\nJones also cited the potential for EV demand to exceed supply. Additionally, Fisker already has an agreement in place which will cover all critical planning and launch phases of the Ocean. This can help prevent potential hiccups along the way.\nWhen you take all of these factors into account, maybe the price target isn’t unrealistic at all.\nThe Takeaway on FSR Stock\nOne analyst’s opinion shouldn’t change your decision on whether or not to own a stock. That being said, it’s encouraging to hear what Jonas has to say about FSR shares.\nPerhaps a nearly-tripled price is in the cards for Fisker. It will just take some time and a good measure of patience from faithful investors.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":17,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":177275516,"gmtCreate":1627230765135,"gmtModify":1703485809201,"author":{"id":"3582002557827165","authorId":"3582002557827165","authorIdStr":"3582002557827165","name":"4c7ea105","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582002557827165"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/177275516","repostId":"2153878189","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2153878189","pubTimestamp":1627179426,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2153878189?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-07-25 10:17","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Amazon's stock looks tired.

Bipartisan talk of&nbsp;antitrust actions&nbsp;against the e-commerce giant could mean that Amazon’s dominance could begin to face challenges from Washington. That comes as Bezos handed off the CEO role to Andy Jassy earlier this month.</p>\n<p>Shares of Amazon have underperformed the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100&nbsp;and the S&amp;P 500&nbsp;in 2021, even as the coronavirus pandemic forced Americans to rely on its service during the darkest days.</p>\n<p>Given all this, it is worth considering e-commerce alternatives if you’re worried that Amazon’s best days are behind it.</p>\n<p>Here are five smaller high-growth companies you may want to research:</p>\n<p><b>Sea</b></p>\n<p>Shares of&nbsp;Sea Ltd.&nbsp;are up about 45% in 2021, hitting new all-time highs as it continues its aggressive growth across Asia and Latin America.</p>\n<p>The Singapore-based company has a broad business model capitalizing on e-commerce and digital retail operations around the world. That includes its Garena digital entertainment platform that publishes video games and offers e-sports tie-ins, the Shopee e-commerce platform and SeaMoney digital financial services that include mobile payment services.</p>\n<p>Sea was a darling in 2020 as it rode the “stay at home trade” to great success. Revenue doubled year over year in 2020 to $4.4 billion, and the company’s momentum was the envy of Wall Street as Sea stock racked up roughly 640% gains on the calendar year.</p>\n<p>But the fundamentals shown by Sea in 2021 hint that the surge in share prices were justified. Consider that in its first-quarter report in May, revenue surged by about&nbsp;150%— while gross profit tripled year over year.</p>\n<p>With its next earnings report scheduled for mid-August, Sea stock could see another leg up as it continues to prove Amazon isn’t the only e-commerce name worth watching.</p>\n<p><b>Coupang</b></p>\n<p>While Sea has been a cult stock for a while in some circles, one Asian e-commerce stock that is still flying under the radar for many is Korea-based Coupang Inc..&nbsp;South Korea’s biggest e-commerce company began trading in March after an IPO that raised $4.6 billion, but since then shares have drifted lower — and other cult-like stocks have won all the attention.</p>\n<p>If you haven’t yet heard of Coupang, its model should be quite familiar. It sells various products including home goods, apparel, beauty products, sporting goods and electronics. It’s also looking beyond these tried-and-true categories to include a focus on fresh food and groceries, as well as services including travel and restaurant delivery.</p>\n<p>Though the fundamentals are light given its recent debut, the numbers we have do show this regional e-tailer is connecting in a big way in Korea. Namely, it saw net revenue growth of 74% in its first-quarter report in May, and gross profit up 70% year over year. Total customers grew 21%, and revenue per customer surged 44%.</p>\n<p>Admittedly, the total customer base in that quarter was just 16 million households — hardly Amazon-esque. And so far in 2021, share prices has slumped slightly, even though the S&amp;P 500 has powered higher. But remember, this is a company that just raised $4.6 billion — with a “B” — and is serious about growth. Considering the language and logistical barriers to competition in the markets it serves that clearly have long-term growth potential, investors may want to consider the lull in Coupang shares a buying opportunity.</p>\n<p><b>MercadoLibre</b></p>\n<p>Taking a page out of the playbook of Silicon Valley stocks that boast high share prices and a refusal to split, MercadoLibre Inc.&nbsp;is currently trading well above four figures — and based on recent history, seems as if it’s likely to stay there.</p>\n<p>MercadoLibre stock has cooled off in 2021 and is sitting on a slight loss year to date, compared with an uptrend broadly for U.S. stocks. However, that’s after this Latin American stock racked up 200% gains last year. Argentina-based MercadoLibre is hardly slowing down, however, as in the first quarter it reported&nbsp;70 million&nbsp;active users — an increase of 62% above the just over 43 million users in the prior year. Gross merchandise volume was up even more at a 77% year-over-year growth rate to just over $6 billion, compared with $3.4 billion in the first quarter of 2020.</p>\n<p>What’s really exciting for investors, however, is that the gains in core e-commerce transactions is supplemented by continued growth into financial services. MercadoLibre reported an impressive $2.9 billion in payment volume through its mobile wallet platform, and its Mercado Credito lending platform saw its portfolio grow to $576 million — more than doubling over the prior year.</p>\n<p>Amazon has taught e-commerce companies that dominating all aspects of the consumer experience is how to truly build a dominant operation. With MercadoLibre growing sales but also increasingly connecting on the financial side, it is setting up itself to be a force in Latin America — and a real competitor to even entrenched western e-commerce brands.</p>\n<p><b>Newegg</b></p>\n<p>Newegg Commerce Inc.&nbsp;is a consumer-electronics e-tailer that has a bit of a following in computer geek circles but largely has gone unnoticed by most consumers and investors. That is, until it spiked from $10 a share to a brief high above $60 a share in July.</p>\n<p>The inciting incident was news that Newegg would carry hard-to-get Nvidia&nbsp;graphics hardware, and theoretically see a big bump in revenue and profits as a result. However, Newegg may be proving that it is much more than just a tangential play piggybacking off Nvidia as it proves there is real value to specialty retailers that serve a specific audience — and can offer in-demand products instead of knock-offs propped up by fraudulent five-star reviews.</p>\n<p>Newegg went public via a SPAC, so it doesn’t have a lot of history to show investors just yet. But what little we know is proof that Newegg stock has potential. Consider it commands an impressive market share when it comes to core hardware items like PC processors, motherboards and the like. It also ranks as a top-five website worldwide when it comes to computer and electronics retailing sites, and is a go-to site for cryptocurrency miners as well as PC gamers.</p>\n<p>According to what we know about the financials, Newegg topped $2.1 billion in sales, thanks to its dominance in this profitable niche of computer components. And as evidenced by its recent Nvidia score, it has deep relationships with consumer electronics suppliers to ensure it is not just another Amazon clone selling cut-rate flat screens.</p>\n<p><b>Shopify</b></p>\n<p>If you’re interested in what life looks like for e-commerce beyond Amazon, look no further than Shopify Inc..This Canada-based tech company offers a platform for any company to build out web and mobile storefronts, integrate those operations into physical retail locations and then assist with the nitty gritty of inventory, shipping and payments.</p>\n<p>Shopify stock was one of those names that made a lot of headlines in 2020 as part of the pandemic-related surge in service providers made for social distancing. Shares surged from about $400 to $1,100 last year as a result of everyone looking to do business digitally. But in 2021, Shopify stock has tacked on almost 40% more, proving this is not just a COVID trade. After all, the e-commerce potential it helps merchants realize is real and lasting beyond the pandemic.</p>\n<p>Case in point:Fiscal first-quarter revenue growth&nbsp;reported at the end of April was a red hot 110%. But what long-term investors will like even more is that its subscription service metric MRR — that is, monthly recurring revenue — accelerated 62% year-over-year to prove that many of the initial spend on building out these platforms is sticking as clients maintain their Shopify presence.</p>\n<p>Shopify isn’t quite the scale of Amazon, but at $200 billion or so in market value right now with a comfortable operating profit to sustain it, investors who want to bet the field vs. Bezos &amp; Co. could do worse than plug into Shopify stock.</p>","source":"lsy1603348471595","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>Amazon's stock looks tired.

Argentina-based MercadoLibre is hardly slowing down, however, as in the first quarter it reported 70 million active users — an increase of 62% above the just over 43 million users in the prior year. Gross merchandise volume was up even more at a 77% year-over-year growth rate to just over $6 billion, compared with $3.4 billion in the first quarter of 2020.\nWhat’s really exciting for investors, however, is that the gains in core e-commerce transactions is supplemented by continued growth into financial services. MercadoLibre reported an impressive $2.9 billion in payment volume through its mobile wallet platform, and its Mercado Credito lending platform saw its portfolio grow to $576 million — more than doubling over the prior year.\nAmazon has taught e-commerce companies that dominating all aspects of the consumer experience is how to truly build a dominant operation. With MercadoLibre growing sales but also increasingly connecting on the financial side, it is setting up itself to be a force in Latin America — and a real competitor to even entrenched western e-commerce brands.\nNewegg\nNewegg Commerce Inc. is a consumer-electronics e-tailer that has a bit of a following in computer geek circles but largely has gone unnoticed by most consumers and investors. That is, until it spiked from $10 a share to a brief high above $60 a share in July.\nThe inciting incident was news that Newegg would carry hard-to-get Nvidia graphics hardware, and theoretically see a big bump in revenue and profits as a result. However, Newegg may be proving that it is much more than just a tangential play piggybacking off Nvidia as it proves there is real value to specialty retailers that serve a specific audience — and can offer in-demand products instead of knock-offs propped up by fraudulent five-star reviews.\nNewegg went public via a SPAC, so it doesn’t have a lot of history to show investors just yet. But what little we know is proof that Newegg stock has potential. Consider it commands an impressive market share when it comes to core hardware items like PC processors, motherboards and the like. It also ranks as a top-five website worldwide when it comes to computer and electronics retailing sites, and is a go-to site for cryptocurrency miners as well as PC gamers.\nAccording to what we know about the financials, Newegg topped $2.1 billion in sales, thanks to its dominance in this profitable niche of computer components. And as evidenced by its recent Nvidia score, it has deep relationships with consumer electronics suppliers to ensure it is not just another Amazon clone selling cut-rate flat screens.\nShopify\nIf you’re interested in what life looks like for e-commerce beyond Amazon, look no further than Shopify Inc..This Canada-based tech company offers a platform for any company to build out web and mobile storefronts, integrate those operations into physical retail locations and then assist with the nitty gritty of inventory, shipping and payments.\nShopify stock was one of those names that made a lot of headlines in 2020 as part of the pandemic-related surge in service providers made for social distancing. Shares surged from about $400 to $1,100 last year as a result of everyone looking to do business digitally. But in 2021, Shopify stock has tacked on almost 40% more, proving this is not just a COVID trade. After all, the e-commerce potential it helps merchants realize is real and lasting beyond the pandemic.\nCase in point:Fiscal first-quarter revenue growth reported at the end of April was a red hot 110%. But what long-term investors will like even more is that its subscription service metric MRR — that is, monthly recurring revenue — accelerated 62% year-over-year to prove that many of the initial spend on building out these platforms is sticking as clients maintain their Shopify presence.\nShopify isn’t quite the scale of Amazon, but at $200 billion or so in market value right now with a comfortable operating profit to sustain it, investors who want to bet the field vs. Bezos & Co. could do worse than plug into Shopify stock.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":316,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":888592038,"gmtCreate":1631504992224,"gmtModify":1676530560361,"author":{"id":"3582002557827165","authorId":"3582002557827165","authorIdStr":"3582002557827165","name":"4c7ea105","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3582002557827165"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Gd","listText":"Gd","text":"Gd","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/888592038","repostId":"1191352294","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1191352294","pubTimestamp":1631504454,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1191352294?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-09-13 11:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"IPO Update: Procept BioRobotics Pursues $127 Million IPO","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1191352294","media":"seekingalpha","summary":"Summary\n\nProcept BioRobotics has filed to raise $127 million in a U.S. IPO.\nThe firm is commercializ","content":"<p><b>Summary</b></p>\n<ul>\n <li>Procept BioRobotics has filed to raise $127 million in a U.S. IPO.</li>\n <li>The firm is commercializing robotic surgical instruments.</li>\n <li>PRCT has grown from a small revenue base and has significant prospects ahead of it, but the IPO is quite highly priced, so I'll pass on it.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Quick Take</b></p>\n<p>Procept BioRobotics Corp.
